BY LAST EVENING'S MAIL.
LONDON, OCT. 2g.
YESTERDAY morning two mes
sengers, Messrs. Lauziu and Slater,
arrived at the Secretary of States of
fice with dispatches. the former from
Earl Spencer, at Vienna, the latter
from the Duke of York.
Mr. Slater left ,he army on the
evening of the 16th, at which time,
we underhand no new movements of
importance had occurred,
• The accounts received by the Dutch
Mail, serve only to tell us that neither
at Leyden, the Hague, nor Amster
dam, can any regular intelligence be
obtained of the operations on the
Lower Rhine, or even on the Dutch
frontiers. They mention, as matter
of report, that the French have cross
ed the Meuse at Batenburg, on the
nth. Grave on the Meuse, and Em
merick on the Rhine, are both taken ;
the line of communication between
Gen. Clairfayt and the Duke of York,
consequently broken ; and Nimeguen
on the point of being invested.
A letter from the Hague of the
15th lays, that information had just
been received of a party of the French,
polled between the Waal and the
Meuse, having been defeated with the
Ipfs of 200 taken prisoners, besides
killed and wounded. An article from
the Hague of the fame date, in the
Leyden Gazette, makes no mention
of th'u<
The Dutch troops have evacuated
Philippine, Sans de Grand, Hulft,
and all the other posts in Dutch Flan-„
dem
The Poles, although defeated by
the Ruffians in Lithuania, continue to
be fuccefsful against the Prussian
troops. They are approaching Thorn,
and are expe&cd to get possession
both of that place and Dantzink. —
Kosciusko is gone with the flower of
his army to repair the losses of Lithu
ania.,
oct. 25. The, mail is not arrived,
but we h^ve received the following
letter from a correspondent, the au
thenticity of whose communications
we have frequently experienced.
"I have to day spoken with a per
son who left Amsterdam on Friday
last, who fays that every thing there
is in confufion. Thirty chests of arms
were seized, when about to be distrib
uted among the inhabitants. It was
reported that the Duke of York was
on his march to that city; and in that
cUe a general inundation would take
place, which for the present, would
prevent the advance of the enemy, as
the lace winds and rains were very
favourable to such a measure. ' }
" The Dutch people are so ill-dis
posed to the British army, that they
will not furnifh them with any of the
necessaries of life ; and this exasperat
ed the officers and soldiers so much,
that they have ventured to take them
by force, which tccafioned the late
proclamation from the commander
in chief. ' ^^^%'A^
" The Dutch patriots pretend that
the, have gained over secretly many
of their own cavalry ; but their infan
try would not be seduced. The Jews
arid (hip-carpenters were willing, in
case of extremities, to emigrate, and it
is hid that the treasure in the bank,
aft other valuables, i&to be removed
on' board the fleet." : 1
Eirly yeflerday morning,™
fete arrived at Lord Grerviilc'N
with drfpatches from his Royal M
netithe Duke of York, dated 2CT|
last. at which time nothing particular
had occurred. The nectffary arrange
ments for the defence of Holland)
temin^d to be proceeded in wi;h
much alacrity.„
AMSTERDAM, OCT. 16.
' Every thing remains qmet here,
though we are in perpetual apprehen
sion of some violent commotion from
the state of fermentation in which the
minds of the people are in thivcity
and t^hrivirbni— Thie on the one
hand the patriots present addreffei
and remonftrvees against the inunda
tions and the entrance of foreign
troops the magistrates and the troops
are eva^Mmeir guard. The Stad-
Kuis is beset with cannon and guards,
and the gunners stand night and day
by the cannon with matches lighted.
This day a frefh detachment of cav
alry arrived here from the army, and
paraded the principal Greets and
squares. Nothing hostile as yet oc
curred between the Borghes and Mil
itary, but the alarm is very great and
both parties are, it is supposed secret
ly taking their measures. We have
nothing certain from the armies. It is
laid that Grave has Surrendered on the
fame conditions as Bois-le Duc, and
that the French are preparing to be

bal accounts ^ the Surrender of Rot
terdam, by him we have received
Paris papers to the 18th O&. which
contain no news from the armies.
From them it appears that the minds
of the people of Paris are in consider
able fermentation on the fubjea of
popular Societies. The convention
have passed a decree forbidding in a
degree, the Societies corresponding
with each other, and have limited
their power of adion in other relpe^i.
_Each Society must publish a lift of
its members.
Jan. 3. The ship John, Captain
Whitwell, in 53 days from Amster

Dutch and English armies were re
treating towards Amsterdam, but that
the inhabitants of that city, were a

public affairs in general—the unexampled
prosperity of all classes of our citizens ; are
circumftauces, which peculiarly mark one

of public thanksgiving and prayer ; and, on
that day to meet together and render their
sincere and hearty thanks to the great Ruled
of nations, for the manifold and signal mer
cies, which diftinguith our lot as a na ion,
, particularly, for the possession of confuta
tions of government, which unite, and, by
their union, establish liberty with order ; for
the preservation of peace, foreign and do
rreftic; for the seasonable control, which/
has been given to a spirit of disorder, in the
suppression of the late infurreftion ; and,,
generally for the prosperous course of our
affairs, public and private ; and, at the fame
time, humbly and fervently to befeeth the
kind Author of these blessings, graciously to
prolong them to us—to imprint, on our
hearts, a deep and solemn sense of our obli

to eftimafe their immense value—to preserve
us from the arrogance of prosperity, & from
hazarding the advantages we enjoy, by delu
sive pursuits—to dispose us to merit the con
tinuance of his favors, by not abusing them,
I by our CRATITUDE for them, and by d.
CORRESPONDENT CONDUCT, as
Citizens and as Men—to render this coun

to diffufe and eftablith habits of sobriety, or
