fold be tiro up; and Thirdly, That the
^ffl^'' °' & United States, as a neutral
Nation would be recognized. It is not said
#bat any actual negotiation to taken place ;
fc^^^^z^
,cefs is founded.
, That the French arms bate overrun all
' maritime Flanders, and were in the vicinity
^^ z^^^
lands; and maketheir way to Amsterdam.
That the people in England, were very
generally sick of the War ; and that reports
were in circulation, that two of the leading
Commanders of the combined armies had
requested their Courts to begin a negotiation
of Peace.
That both the French and English fleets
were in port : andthat nothing of conse
quence had occured on the ocean.
And that there had been no accounts re
ceived of the inundation of the Nethelands.
The French with an energy without ex
ample, have overrun all Austrian Flanders,
in sixty days, and have deprived the Emperor
Os many capital cities, and of two millions of
fubje&s, who ^re nowcitizens and friends of
the French Republic. The names of the
principal cities which have been taken, were
faithfully recorded in ourlaft Chronicle.
The British troops have been obliged dis,
gratefully to retreat as often as their ene
mies have appeared. The French were by
the last intelligence, inverting Siuys,in their
way to Amsterdam. The armies of France
have been every where fuccefstul : Even the
vidory of Lord Howe, fo,much boasted of,
r &P* considered as defective in the most ma
tykrial point, by the British, as it removed
their only remaining hope of famine, in
' France,by the arrival oftheChefapeake fleet.
There is no profpea of peace between the
British and the French Republic ; but many
suppose that the Spaniards, Austrians and
Prussians may hive a peace or truce granted
them ;Jt is certain that these last are retreat
ing to their own country, while the remain
ing British are puihinginto Holland.
The confederated armies are in fad dis
persed or atJeaft no longer in union.
There fuofifts the most perfea harmony
; between the Jacobin Clubs, the army, and
the Convention.
The Germans and the British are comput
ed to have loft 150,000 men the present cam
paign.
Nothing has hitherto transpired refpe&ing
Mr. Jay's mission excepting various opin
ions of different writers, upon which a full
reliance cannot be placed. They all agree,
however, that if more vigorous meafurcs had
been adopted on our part, our demands on
the British government, would have been un
questionably fuccefsful. The repeal of rhe
Embargo was much lamented by the Ameri
cans in England.
It is now made certain that if we ever ob
tairt compensation, it will not be owing to
any sense of justice in that government, but
wholly to the prodigious success of France.
In fad, that Republic will in that case, have
twice saved this country from British rapine.
The Dutch are much diffatisfied with their
own government, and generally friendly to
France. There is a great probability of a
revolution in Holland.'

Mr.^AVs MISSION.
A letter from a merchant of the firft re
fpedability, in London, fays, "that Mr.
JAY will have a knotty affair in the settle
ment of the American claims ; and observes
further, that an advertisement appeared in
the English papers requesting the, London
merchants to make out an account of their
losses, against the Americans fuftaiped in the
late war with .hat country."
Another letter mentions that we are in
debted to the successes of the French, should
any indemnification be made to the Ameri
cans, and that but for the rapid success of the
French Mr. JA y would never have been per
mitted to negociate. # That the merchants
of England were very cooly received by the
ministry, on their application for indemnifi
cation, but that the successes offence had
given a more favourable turn to American
affairs. >
We are sorry to inform the public, that 66
fail of American veffds, and 150 fail of Danes
rind Swedes, have been captured-by the Brit
„ilh and carried into Guernsey, where they re
mained at the date of the last London ac
counts.

On Tuefday lart, the firft battalion of the

Nathaniel Head, Esq. Lieutenant Colo
nel-Commandant of said regiment, and D.
Maccrillis, Eq Major of the fecund battal
ion of said tegument, were present Colonel
Head, was officer of the day, and the battal
ion performed a number of exercises, much
to the fatisfa&ion of the field officers, and a
large number of refpedabie gentlemen from
adjacent towns—The manoeuvres of the day
closed with a Sh^m-Figbt—in which, we are
happy to add, no lives were loft—and no fa
serial damage done—except, an old horse or
two, pricked a lit tle ^ich bayonets, &c.
Minute Men.
The field officers of the eleventh regiment
of the Militia of Newhampfhire, have issued
orders to the Captains of companies to fog/
nifh respectively their number of men, io or
der to have the quota, required from said reg
iment by the Major General, agreeably to
an aft of Congress far railing 80,000 minute
men, ready to march at a moment's warping
—lt is hoped, that the towns refpeftively will
imitate the generous examples of the towns
in the sister states, by voting,addition to the
wages allowed the soldiers by Congrefs-=fn
order to induce brave fellows to become vol
unteers for the defence of their country, if
occasion should call for a&ual service. Such
would fight better than those who might be
draughted, and emptied to go for the pitiful
allowance of 3 or 4 dollars a mon r h. Give
them generous wages—and let them go free

A DREAM..
MR. RUSSELL,
As dreaming fee© to be infafoion, [take the lib
ert, tofendyou the following for the Mirroor.
'THAD been hard at work, a harrowing jib
i L day, & came home at night much fatigued
with my daily labour-After taking some re
frefhment, I threw myfelf upon my bed, and
soon fell into a deep Ileep.=l seemed, in my
sleep, to be transported into a beautiful coun
try town, one of the principal streets where
of soon took up my attention—The moon
shone beautifully, and I stood filemly admir
ing the taste of the inhabitants in the con
ftruaion of their buildings—when on a sud
den, I difeovered a huge Speßre, much in
the shape of a man, making towards me, his
countenance was darfe and haggard, but
somewhat illuminated by two large flaming
eyes, as tjanfoarerit as glass, which darted °
their horrid beams on each fide of him as he
rushed along, stalking with most gigantic
strides—out of his horribly , grinning mouth
burst forth much jmsh and fire, strongly
feented with Julphreous odours—At his near
approach, my hair bristled upon my head, &
my blood curdled in my veins—However, he
puffed by me without noticing me, and ruflh>
ed into a Bookseller's shop, (as I raw by the
sign over the door) which flood near the
ft reel. and disappeared.— After he was gone,°
my curiosity got the better of my fears, and
I was refolded to pursue biro into his retreat. l
T accordingly followed on, and finding the
street door open, I entered, and through the
glass door 1 perceived the MonfterJurround^
ed with threeor four little ,ale fp€ares, near
ly in the shape of men-^The monfler ftocd
in the midst, shrouded in darkness, and now
and then darted his glaring eyes on those
who surrounded him, who seemed to tremble
at every glance—=-At length the menfter,
ready to buffi with rage, gave a tremendous
stamp with his foot, and thus growled in a
surly tone — " Bring hither my black manu
script, in which I have inferibed the names of
mine enemies, their faults & crimes—where
their deeds are recorded at large, in aggra
vated colours, read, to be published in the
face of the World—l am betrayed, you das
tardly minions—My reign of fulfilood and
impefture is, I fear, nearly at an end—l can
no longer deceive, transforming myfelf into,
an angel of lighte-This book of falfhoods,
the offspring of my malice, must be destroy
ed, or my throne totters to its centre——He
then, as if agitated with tenfold fury Scrape, t
cast the fable volume into the flames, which
raising a sudden light, and his robe falling
aside, difeovered his cloven foot, which so
terrified me, that I awoke—and behold, it
was a dream. _A DREAMER..
^ This reJbaion arifafrom the above dream
—Oftentimes, when weja) to ourselves Peace—
fwe"would only fartb our own hearts, wffauld
find, No Peace—6w instead thereofft be haggard
fac'd cloven footed Morftdr—And may the difav
#, thereof jeon awake as all from our dreams.
