The News from London,
By the Galen, is favourable to the
continuation of peace with England.
With the people there, no idea of a
rupture with the United States was
entertained ; and the fpoilations on
our commerce, in the Weftindies,
were much deprecated. The rumours
of a general peace, in Europe, were
frequent ; But on the 26th of March,
the two Houses of Parliament, #m
con, voted addresses to the King, ex
pressing, " that they would mofthear
tily fopport his Majesty in the meas
ures proposed for prosecuting the pres
ent just and necessary war." — The
secession of Pruflia; was the fubjed of
(peculation; Some of the British
Cabinet admit the fa& tp, fcshrm
ing ; others fay, it is only a manoeu
vre of Frederick to fpueeze a subsidy
from the combined powers—and that
a million' will bring him back—whilst
a third party charge him with the
grossest perfidy, in the breech of his
treaty with the Ki>g of Greatbritao,
;wherein " fheir Majesties reciprocally
promise, Dot to lay down their arms
but by common consent, withoutl
having obtained restitution of al! the
conquefti which France may have
made upon either of the two con-|
baaing parties, or upon such otherl
of the powers, friends or allies of.their
said MajeOies ;" by concluding a fep
erate peace with France.
; v A London paper mentions, that the
loffer made to Prussia by the French)
is la wife, moderate and political, as
to induce Frederick to entertain it cor
dially.";

all expedition. All the line of battle
(hips at Plymouth are ordered imme
diately to join him at Poitfmooth.

/BOSTON, JUNE 9.
SVMMARr.
By the Galen, Captain Eddy, and the ship
Favorite, Captain Moultori, from London,
arrived since our last, we have received a file
of " The Gazetteer," a patriotic paper, up
to the 13th of April.
From a cursory perusal of these papers, it
does not appear that the campaign is yet o
pened ; in fad, the affairs of Europe feein to
be at a stand. Nothing of importance is
contained in these papers, except a confirma
tion of the defection of the King of Pruffia—
his declaration is contained in one of them;
but its length prevents its appearance this
day—we will give it on Thursday.
By these papers it also appears, that the
news of the depredations in the Weftindies,
had arrived in London ; but it did not make
any impre th on on the minds of the people, if
we may judge from the papers, as there is but
very little said about the matter in them.
Another conspiracy has been deteded in
Paris, at the head of which was the celebrat
ed Danton, who has been arrested, and it is
said in the London papers, of the 15th, has
been executed, together with a number of
others.
Captain M'Lellan has arrived at Portland
since our last, in a short passage from Ply
mouth (Eng.) We are informed that he
brings nothing of importance. We have
not, however, feed any papers brought by
him A gentleman from Portland informs
that Capt. M'Lellan told him, the printers
in England were not allowed to publish any
thing unfavourable to that country. This
may in some manner account for the extreme
barrenness of the papers received by the two
former arrivals.
It does not appear by these arrivals, that
Spain has acknowledged the French Repub
lick ; on the contrary mention is made of
her exertions in arming, &c, for the ensuing
campaign.
A gentleman in this town has received a
letter from his brother now in London, dat
ed igth of April, which mentions that the
British Parliament has palled a law, forbid
ding, upon pain of death, any commercial
intercourse with any French citizen, or with
any person residing in, or who has been in
France, since January last.
However extraordinary this intelligence
may appear, it is actually related so in a let
ter, which comes from a gentleman of char
a&er and refpedability ; and so circumstanc
ed, we thought it our duty to mention it.
Portsmouth, June io c Arrived here
yesterday, the Ichooner IndufUy, Captain
Woodward, in 26 days from St. Thomas's.
Beef when he left there, was felling at seven
dollars per barrel.
Capt. Woodward informs that there was a
report, in circulation at St. Thomas's, that
the Danes had declared Wanagain ft France,
and that three French privateers then at St.
Thomas's were detained on account of the
report. I,f, ~

Brussels, APRIL 1. The heavy artillery
has been drawn out from the arsenal at Mech
lin, and every preparation has been made to
ensure success in our future operations a.
gainft the enemy ; but. the campaign will
not be opened on our fide, before the return
of the Archduke Charles frbm Vienna.
Gen. Pichegru is employed in establishing
a camp at Cambray, which is to contain
80,000 men. This circumstance has occa
sioned some movements on the part of the
combined army, but nothing excepting a few
flight skirmishes has as yet taken place.
APRIL 10. Yesterday the Emperour was
received' in this city amidst the most trium
phant acclamations. He has announced a
general amnesty, and assured the states that
he will not leave the Netherlands until all the
differences between the Sovereign and the
fubjeds are accommodated.
APRIL 11. Since Tuefday 1200 waggons
have passed through this city for Valencien
nes, loaded with warlike stores only.
The Hanoverians have experienced a sec
ond loss near Werwick—a company of the §th
regiment has been cut to pieces or taken.

OSTEND, APRIL 8. " Our last intelli
gence from the army states, that the day be
;fare yesterday the Carmagnoles in pretty
strong force, attacked our posts of Werwick
and Commines, but were driven back with
jgreat daughter."
, prankfort, APRIL 6. The important
event we have so anxiously expeded, has
Ibeen brought by,a Courier from Berlin ;
land Field-Marshal Mollendorff has received
orders not to divide for the present, ihe
Prussian army in the environs of Mentz ;
1 Ibut1 but to maintain his petition until his Majeftyj
(hall transmit to him his final determination.
This change initie difpofitign of the Prus
sian cabinet has been produced by the con.
cession of the diet of the Empire, and the
Imperial Court ; and by the negotiations &
fplended offers of a particular member of the
Coalition.
An interview will speedily take place at
Bonn, between the Emperor, and the King
of Prussia.•
The French armies of the Rhine arid
Moselle have been considerably weakened
lately, on account of the, large detachments
that have been sent to the army of the North.
Brigadier Madalirilki with his adherents
has been in Sendomiria, to propose a confed
eration to save his country. The nobles
said, if any foreign power would assist them,
they would makehis a common cause. Ma
dalinifki then marched farther, and will no
doubt be fpeedilyferfounded by theßuffians
and Prussians. ~,. ..f, ..
The Polish Brigade Walelki, commanded
by Brigadier Manget, has been attacked by
the Ruffians near Optatoff, who killed <ity
men, and took 70 prisoners.
An engagement has already taken place in )
the Polish Woywodfhip of Sendemiria, be
tween Madalinefki and the rruffians, in
which a great number of men were killed on
both sides. ~' r
