bfe to form a judgement of the depth
of the wound. This office w^per
formed by the three pale, trembling,
and aflaed noblemen ; who hid far
life courage and presence of mind
than their royal matter, to whole
word# they were deaf, thinking that
hit life was de^arting,ich his precious
. 66 At the end of t few minute# the
King fat down, when the attendants
perceived that the wound was deep
and dangerous ; and nothing left
than the cool reafooing of the king
himfelf could have afforded confola
tim,
"At last a surgeon of the town
arrived, who dressed the wound. His
Majefty't own surgeon appeared next
day at four o'clock in the afternoon,
and the following was issued at
;j. THE BULLETIN Os HEALTH.
"The ball which hit hit Majesty
in the forehead described a fort of
semicircle, of about the breadth of
four fingers, within five or fix line#
(1-3 or 1-2 an inch) from the Staff
rafale. The Pericrasto has been
slightly grazed. Hitherto there hat
been no fever, and there are great
hopes that the issue will be favorable.

"Surgeon to the King."
The King of France, during thia
dilemma, was an example of mild-
Deft, humanity, and refigoatioo. He
displayed the utmost tenderaefa to his
attendant—and the utmost indiffer
ence to his own state. When the
Duc de Cuiche exclaimed—" Q! My
matter I if the wretch had hit one
hair's breadth lower''—" Well 0,
friad, a what then ?" (said his ma,
efty, cooly.) "The Ki*g of Prance
wonkl be aeries X" (In allusion to
his royal brother.)
" The magistrates of the town of
Delligen conducted themselves with
much propriety. They gave every
assistance requisite, and made every
exertion to difeover the assassin, who
is luppofed to have been a stranger.
The monster has made hit escape, and
left no indication of his rout.
“ As he probably concluded that
he had completed the murder, he may
probably be gone to receive the re
ward of hit infamy.:

The French Republic, for a long;
time disgusted by this Machias
elilm, has refoived to male re
prifalt against Greatbritain. The
Executive Dire&ory, charges
the Political Agents to declare
to the governments near which
they reside, that the maritime
forcesand privateers of the Re
public, will aft against the ves
sels of said governments, in the
fame manner as the English a&
This measure ought not to in
.fpire alarm in the neutral States
—they will find it fufficiently
justified by necessity, and the
right of lawful defence. If the
neutral governments had caused
their commerce to be refpefted
ly the English, we fhoold not
have been driven to this extrem-.
icy. They ought to recollect,
that the French Republic, al
ways generous, proposed to the
belligerent powers, that the mif
fortunes of war, Ihould not be
extended to commerce, and that
this proposition dictated by a
love of mankind, was rejeaed
by a government accustomed to
difregaid the rights of humani

la direst coatradidion of the asser
tion, that the late order of the Ex?cu
tive Diredory of France, was issued
in consequence of the Treaty made
between the United States and Eng.
land, the words of the official letter
of the minister of Foreign affairs can
be quoted. It expreki, therein gives
the cause of the order, and to insinu
ate that it originated in any other, is
to charge it with duplicity. Befidei
it appears strangely inconsistent that
those who have under all the changes
which the government of France ties
undergone during the revolution,
lauded the magnanimity of the Re
public, should attempt to fix the stig
ma on her, of interfering in the Dr
pbmatic concerns of a fitter Repub
lic. The order extends as well to
Banilb, Swedilh, and Proffian ves
sels, u to those of the United State# ;
and it would be the mott manifeft in
justice to tofiift a puniihment on them
for the fappofed crime of another.

set neceftity decs fiunetirties urge the for
bearing Creditor, unwillingly to so, and %-
so; again and again, the ntgkgful and for
get ful Debtor. The SObferiber is lorry to
jid that this has been his unhappy lot with
many of his cuftenter *, dhich has compelled
him to come to
A Positive beterfflinztinri,
to fettle with ALL -He is a$ willing so
,a, as to rtesite —and to gi^e every reason
able indulgence that is neceffiry ;— but too
long delay, too many difappoin'ments, will
ruin any man-^The fubferiber it therefore
abfolutcly determined, to put into an Attor
ney's hands to celled, after the last of this
present month; alibis out finding accounts
and notes, both those ot his own on the east
fide of the river; of more than three months
(landing, and those of his late partnership
which refped himfelf, which ffiaK remain °
unsettled at that time. There are many ac
counts (landing and notes given, as long a
go as two or three years, and fame of his pri
vate notes and accounts ever since his diAb
lution of partnership— which must be fettled
and paid—or, cost will be the inevitable
Consequence to the debtors+==The Sub
scriber wishes not to be fetere with tiny one,
—but, as Cbatit, begins dr borne, 'tis time for
him to take rare of those accounts, which
debtors do not think worth the trouble of
paying—the very fmillcft accounts arte of
consequence to him, as he has many of thetii,
which, when colle^ed, will amount to a la^ge
sum—the eartb is composed of attoms, arid
the &• of small drops —thus, many a little
makes a mcble=(o al(b, with many little ac
counts—and the man who has ever so much
due, must be distressed. and fuffer much tab
and perplexity, when debtors make a prac
tice of coming, one after another, with the
continual disagreeable excuse cif= •I cannot
pay 'till such a time—and that such a time never
comes.— but a tints is now come, and old
debts must be paid.
I am determined to have all
my accounts fettled at the dole of this year, /
and with the next year begin a new score —
X call upon ALL—I cannot afford to pay
the Printer, any more € °ft f° r advertising—-
the next call you will hate to pay the Law
yer for—if you ehufe it.
The Subferiber is very much
obliged to those of his good cuflomers, who
have made their custom worth his attention,
by punctual payments —this is the only cus
tom that makes business worth attending
to ; these are the only customers that afford
a man a living by attending to any particu
lar business—to such be tenders his most
hearty acknowledgments, and wishes a con
tinuance of their custom—which he wiU en
deavor to merit, by good and fair usage, and
a full affarance of the confidence he reposes
in themr-and is with refpe& their and the
public's very humble fervent,
