Febru ry 27th, at 6 o'clock in the evening, in

k-xes (of any age above childhood) whereby
they will discover a new world in nature,
concealed from others as a fine country is
from travellers in the night, and as the light,

blind; this will be a new scene of enjoyment
and dettuht, as that of feeing is to one born
blind, and will teach them to acquire the pro
per use ot their faculties, as a child does that
of his limbs by learning to walk :—this will
elevate them to a Plvlofophical region of sub-

much superior to the pleasures anrl amuse

all real knowledge is practice and happiness,
this course will tend ro promote personal hap

Yesterday the Convention received ad
vice that the Republicans had obtained a
victory over the Piedmontefe troops, and
that they had taken their Camp at Mag
dalena, and also of a fruitlefs attack of
the Prussians on Bitche, from whom they
took 250 prisoners.
FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE
Lad Saturday the French again made
a general attack on the Imperial frontier
polls, and they had the good fortune to
penetrate as far as Menin, from which
place the cannon placed on the ramparts
played on them, which made them retreat,
after having fifty men taken prisoners:
and we understand that in the diftrift of
Stunvoorden, the enemy are collecting in
great numbers; from which we judge,
that their design is once more to wrefl
from us Weft Flanders.
The plan of taking Bitche by furprifc,
or rather the Citadel, which would have
been a great acquiCtion, at it commands
the defiles, was attempted in the night of
the iGth, and miscarried. The town was
talily taken, and the Prussians even pene
trated in the zig-zag to the last gate to
wards the Citadel, vrfiere the French, with
balls, timber, stones, and boiling water,
forced the aflailants to retreat with the loss
of fcveral hundred men.

advise, that several Bloody (kiimiflies had
taken place near Hallum and Werwick,
where ijomenof Laudon's free corp»
were taken prisoners ; the firft inft. the
French had advanced to Ypres and Me
nin, nothing, liowever, took place, but
/light fliirmilhes, which were viewed as
the forerunner of a serious attack soon
taking place by the French; as they had
already retaken the post of Poperingen,
and that their army daily received consi
derable reinforcements.
By letters from Genoa, we learn, that
last week a great number of barrels, filled
with gunpowder, were found in Porto-
Franco, probably hidden there with the
wicked intention of blowing tip the great
magazines. On account of this manoeu
vre, an extraordinary Council was held,
the result of which was, an order for all
the foreigners to quit immediately the ci
ty and harbor of Genoa. This morn
ing, several ships, full of foreigners, ex
pelled from Genoa, arrived here.

The intelligence that lieutenant-colonel
Kitfchfeldt, adjutant-general to the duke
of Brunfwick had been killed, is without
foundation. He had a stone thrown at his
head near Bitche, which wounded him ' T
he is alive at Worms, whither he went to
wait his recovery.
The citizens of Marseilles have been
forced to enrol themselves in Cartaux's ar
my, being threatened with the guillotine
in cafe of refufal. No fooncr are the un
fortunate people put to guard the out
posts, than they take the opportunity to
desert hither. They affr.re us, that Car
teaux has not more than yeco effective
men, the greater part of whom are forced
volunteers. They ai e dreadfully circum
ftat •ed for want of provisions, and are o
bliged to live upon the fruits of the cli
mate.
Very few of them have tents to sleep
under.
Six thousand Portuguese are daily ex

By a Danifli brig which arrived here
this evening from Brest, we have the fol
lowing particulars :
The Thames frigate, Captain Cotes,
previous to being taken, had an aftiou
with a French 64 gun ship, arme en Jlute,
which struck ; but the Caramagnole fri
gate, of 44 guns, immediately coming up
a mod severe engagement took place, and
after having 44 men killed, a milch great
er number wounded, the Thames dismast
ed, and rendered totaHy unmanageable,
Capt. Cotes was under the necelTity of
striking his colours. Captain Cotes and
his officers are closely confined.
During the time the Dane lay at Brell,
the Thames was completely refitted, man
ned, and ready for sea. A (loop of war
had likewise brought in 5 English coalt
ers with good cargoes, one of them be
longing to Liverpool. The day this brig
failed from Brest, a fleet confiding of nine
fail of the line and 3 frigates put to sea
but their deftiuation was not known.
There were besides in Brest water, entire
ly ready for sea, 14 fail of the line, two
of them three deckers, and ten large fri
gates, that were expected to join the a
bove fleet.
FALMOUTH, Nov. 30.
This afternoon about j o'clock, arriv

mounting 28 guns. The Blonde was cap
turedby his Majesty's frigate, the Phartcn

reported that the Photon fired one broad

the Sans Culottes immediately struck.
