In addition to the information in the London papers, received by the Leopard, arrived at N. York, and published in this day's Register, we have the pleasure to assure our readers that we have perused private letters of as late date as the 17th of October, from respectable houses in London to their correspondents in this city, which state that there were the strongest reasons for believing in an amicable adjustment of our differences with G. Britain -that the mission of Mr Rose as envoy extraordinary to the U. S. was expressly made to effect this desirable purpose -that the appointment of sir John Borlase Warren, who is considered as one of their best admirals, and an accomplished gentleman to succeed admiral Berkeley on the American station is made from the same conciliatory motives -and that it was understood the blockade of their enemies ports would not (as had been some time ago supposed) be rigorously enforced -and under this impression these letters advise a continuance of shipments-On the 17th of October advice had reached London that a treaty offensive and defensive had been concluded between France and Denmark, and all hopes of a reconciliation with the latter power were at an end.
Combining these advices with opinions recently expressed from the highest authority at Washington, we are led to the pleasing conclusion that the governments of the U. S. and G Britain will prefer the peace and prosperity of their respective countries to war and desolation -the statement of the rumoured purport of Mr. Canning's Note as given in the National Intelligencer, and published in this day's Register, to the contrary notwithstanding.
The London Statesman, of October 17, contains the following article:
"Cowes, October 16.
"Mr. Murron, surgeon of the Chesapeake, arrived here yesterday morning express from London, and immediately proceeded on board the American schooner Revenge. The Revenge sailed this morning on her return to America."
A London paper of the 15th Oct. says the appointment of Mr. G. H Rose, who kissed hands the preceding day, is not to succeed Mr. Erskine as minister to the U. S., It does not interfere with that gentleman's ministry. Mr. Rose is going on a special mission.
