TO THE PUBLIC.
WHEREAS I stand accused by Capt. THOMAS MOODY, of the Corps of Royal Engineers, of withholding the Rations (and turning them to my private advantage) of the Negroes employed on the Works at the Post of Morocco, and being determined in the most public manner, to rescue my character from so odious an imputation, I hereby earnestly call on all persons, with whom I have had any transaction, either in Flour or Salt Meat, during my command at that Post, to make a return of those transactions immediately to the Board of His Majesty's Commissioners now sitting in this Colony; and should the Board conclude its sitting before those returns can be made, if any there be, I beg that they may be transmitted to the Commanding General, to enable him to transmit them to His Majesty's Board, wherever it may be then and at that time holding its sitting; and if there be any person or persons with whom I have had any private conversation, which might go to cloak or hide any pecuniary transaction of mine, I hereby release them, and call upon them to declare it.

P. F. TINNE, Dep. Sec.

A vessel from the Brazils and another from America, have this day entered our river; but they bring no news.

We have been favoured with Liverpool Papers to the 9th of September; and our readers will find the substance of their contents under appropriate heads.

GREAT BRITAIN AND AMERICA.

We find, that, notwithstanding the most happy consequences are anticipated from the mission of Mr. Foster to the Government of the United States, the British Ministry has thought proper to have recourse to certain measures of retaliation; as appears by the following notice:
"It was determined, at a Council, held on the 6th of September, by the Prince Regent, to issue an Order in Council prohibiting the entrance of American vessels into British Ports, except those laden with wheat or flour; which vessels are also to carry back a freight of the produce of that country or her colonies. This regulation will be severely felt in America; but, if the Government of that country, under the cloak of neutrality, is determined to act the part of an auxilliary to one of the belligerents, it must expect retaliatory measures from the other."

Vessels ENTERED and CLEARED.

ENTERED.
Oct. 19. Sch. Sally, Williams, from Gloucester, N.A.
Ship Antigua Packet, Mares, Liverpool.
21. Sch. Barbados, Tynes, Barbados.
22. Sch. Providence, Dives, Halifax.

CLEARED.
