some Commotion, which gave rife

" We had some disagreeable
Work on the firft reading of the
Catbolick Bill. A numerous Mob
paraded the Streets, shouting " Li
berty and Equality ;" they then
proceeded to the parliamentary
House, in order, it is laid, to give
greater Force to the Question then
in Agitation, shouting as before,
“ Liberty or Death." The Sher
iffs, attended by the Military, ap
peared, and seized the Ringlead
ers, they immediately retaliated
by seizing the Officer of Guards ;
The Sheriffs strove to call them
to a Sense of their Duty, but in
vain ; the enraged Multitude
threw Stones in every Direction,
the Drums beat to arms when
those Friends to Liberty,the Irifo
Volunteers turned out, headed by
their patriotick Commander,
Col. James Naper Tandy, and
Coj. Smith ; a Volly was dis
charged on each fide, immediate
ly after which, the Military were
ordered to their Barracks, fearing
the Result of offending Citizen
Soldiers, who appeared for the

I HERE is a Report in this City, (which we
fiucerely tope may prove true) —that the Con
gress of the United States have voted the Sum
of 40,000 Dollars to the Marquis la Fay

have empowered a Person to wait on the King
of Prussia, and demand of him that brave and
injured Man, as an American Officer.
From Pittsburgh, January 26th.
Brigadiergeneral Putnam, and the Rev.
Mr. Heckenwelder, passed through this
Town on Monday last, for Philadelphia, having
in Part, completed the Business they were sent
on by Congress, to the Indian Nations. It is
said, that from the Intelligence they have re
ceived from the Miami Indians, there appears
to be no Disposition for Peace on their Part.
Colonel Thomas Procter, of Philadel
phia, arrived here on Sunday last, and on Mon
day proceeded on for Port Franklin, accom
panied by Joseph Nicholson, Indian In
terpreter —His Business is not known, but it is
thought to be with the fix Nations.
Reports .were in Circulation

it was said, that the Houses of the
Queen and Minister, together
with the Bank of England, had
been destroyed, & that Mr. Pitt

"The surprising Events now
passing on the Continent of Eu
rope, are attended to with Anxie
ty and Aftoni(hmenf,on all sides;
to what Lengths their Conse
quences may extend, it is impof
nble to determine : That Holland
will be involved, seem almost
certain ; and that England can no
longer remain Neuter, is gener
ally dreaded—Stocks there' are
accordingly tumbling much fafter
than at the Commencement of
the late War, or almost any for
mer War. It may be well on
your fide, to look forward to the
Effects of such an Event-on the
mercantile System."

" Three Days since, the French
Packet, bearing the Cap of Liber
ty on her Maimntop-gallant
maft-head, arrived here, after a
Passage of 60 Days. I have been
on board the Packet with a Friend
who perfe&ly understands the
French Language, and by whole
aid, together with my own In
quiries, I learned, when Dumou
rier took Brussels, he also took
4000 Prisoners, and the next Day
was joined by ifoo Deserters ;
Cannon by hundreds, &c. and
that the King of Pruffa had de
clared and acknowledged the
French a free and independent
People ; —that he has retired to
Berlin, and swears Vengaence a
gainst the emigrant Princes for
deceiving him, besides demand
ing Reimbursement for his Men
and Expences. All Italy, it was
expeaed, would fall immediately
into the Hands ofthe French, &
that the Pope was actually a Pri
soner before the Time of the
Packet's failing. Os these things,
however, we shall soon be able
to mention further Particulars."
The Depots of the present Day 'appear
to be advancing with rapid Strides, blind
fold to their own Deffraaira: Five
hundred Newengland Families, pattered
throughout the Settlements of Canada, and
diffrainating their republican Ideas,
would of itjelf be prodative of the Inde
pendence of Canada in a few Tears, ad
mitting no other Caple existed.
For this eighteen Months past it has
been predtßed, that the Succeft of France
would give us the weflern Pofis : Pres

itably Produce a Revolution in England
—awl a Revolution in England will in
evitably give us the Poffs.—Ca Ira.
" You tell of yoy Citizens and Citefa in
Boson, and your Equality Cake —'tis all Nothing.
Look at our Connecticut Papers, anj you'll
fee Something. One Woman was so rejoiced,
that instead of one, the was delivered of four
Equality Citizens —Another has advertised that
her Husband ought'not to be the sole Occupant
of her; that all Men have an ^aa/Right ; and
she is determined to keep open Doors. Numbers
have advertised their Farms for Sale, expecting
an agrarian Law. At a publick Dinner at Nor
folk, they had a boiled Mammoth, a Whale
made into a Chouder, three Norway Thrakens
boiled, seven Elephants alameded ; besides vast
Quantities of Oxen, weighing from three to
8000 each, roasted whole for the Children.—
They burnt more Wood in the Cookery than
ever grew on Mount Lihanus They drank
Rivers dry ; and to close the Day delightfully,
they blew up the Green Mountain. They receiv
ed a Deputation, in the Course of the Day,
from the federal Inhabitants of the Planet
Mars, by whom they returned for Answer,
that at half pffl four, they Ihould drink theic
Health under a Discharge of seven Thunders.
There's for you !"

" I congratulate you on the Agreement
of the Council of the confederated Tribes
to liflen to Propofols of Peace from your
Government : But on the express Condi
tion, that you Jhall not only make your
foolifb young Men boneft, hut that your -
Government fall be so, and not aim at
depriving the Indians of their Lands, as
heretofore, or at 6 foie and absolute Sov
ereignty' over them, as claimed at your
former Treaties, lam full, of Opinion,
that it will be your own Faults, if you
do not eflablifb an advantageous and per
manent Peace and Commerce with all the
Indian Nations ; but, to secure these, you
must employ and trust those who know
bow the Business ought to be conduced ;
for an Errour in Judgment ma, be as fa
tal to you as your former Errours in In
dian Politics have been. I fball commit
this Letter to the Rainbow, a Seneca

you from Fort Franklin."
