CHARLESTON, April 11.
' It i, laid, that when I'Embuf
cade failed from France, several of
the ports of that republick were
blocked up by British vessels, so as
to render it extremely difficult to
go either in or out.
None of the British seamen cap
tured by I'Embufcade have enter
ed into the French service, as was
reported ; —their treatment, how
ever, has been of the mbit concili
ating nature, and they are promised
a share ,ofrhe prize money on all
vessels which may be taken during
their detention on board the frigate.
A house of rendezvous for en
tering fame, for the French fee
Vice, was on Saturday opened ih
When the second Column ar
rived it the Heights where it was
to encamp, it found th^m occupi
ed by numerous Bodies of French
Cavalry,' and the Village of Blam
den, which was intended to cover
their left Wing, by a great Num
ber of their Infantry.
The Enemy were attacked on
all si des, but they made an obsti
nate Defence, procuring Rein
forcements, and supplying, by frefh
Troops, whom they brought from
Louvain, and their Camp behind
that Town, those who had been
repulsed./•
The Battle was bloody ; our
second Column Ioft„ above 400
Men, and the Enemy more than
2000. They were, however,
overcome by the Bravery of the
imperial Troops, driven from ail
their Posts, and forced to evacu
ate the Town of Louvain, to quit
the Rivulet Dyl, and to retire be
hind Louvain towards Brussels.
The firft Column fell io near
.Belemberg, with a Body of the En
emy, who occupied the Heights
between that Village and Louvain,
in order to cover the latter. The
Enemy defended themselves there
for seven Hours with the greatest
Obstinacy, but they were at length
overcome, and driven beyond the
Rivulet Dyl,
marched forward in three Columns.
The firft advanced on the- Right
of the Causeway of Louvain, the
second on the left, and the third,
which formed the Vanguard, di
rected its march towards Taurine.
This Battle was still more blood,
than that of the second Column,
and we reckon our loss, which is
not yet properly afeertained, at
more than 5000 Men ; the Ene
my loft above 2000. Our Co,
lumn took Possession of three Can
non and one Carriage.
The Enemy abandoned at Lou
vain a considerable Magazine.
Queenftreet, at -which the nationall
flag was displayed the great part
of the day. In the evening, how
ever, it was lowered, said to be in
consequence of orders from the
highest executive authority,
April 16. We are informed; from
refpeftable authority, that his. ex
cellency the governor has ordered
all houses of rendezvous for volun
teers in the French service, to be
immediately fhuc up : and that he
is determined to exert his power
and influence to prevent the fitting
out of privateers in this port.
It is also said, M. Genet, the
ambassador of France, has declared,
that his nation did not desire that
the citizens of America should em
bark in that unwarrantable busi
ness. ~
Thursday laO arrived in thistown,
a man, named Willjam Preston,
who belonged to the Pennsylvania
levies, and was wounded and taken
prisoner by. the Indians at the time
General St. Clair's army)was de
feated. Preston was carried to the
Sandufo towns, in the vicinity of
which he remained until the begin
ning of February last, when he for
tunately made his escape. He fays
that during the latter part of his
residence with the, Indians, they
were busily .employed in throwing
breast works, &c. between the Mau
mee towns and the Miami river,
about 65 mites from Fort Jeffer
fon—that they seem determined
or war, and that two flags had ar
rived from the United States, both
of which had been detained by
them- -

SMALLPOX!
WE hear from S^/yZ^ry, that the Week
before last, one of Lieutenant Gale's
Family of that Town, broke out with
the Small Pox, owing to a Person's lodg
ing in said Gale's House, who had late
ly left the Hospital at Orange; after this
Accident had happened, it was thought
proper to have the Family innoculated,
which was accordingly done. They are
under the Care of an able Physician, and
we hear are likely to have the Disorder
very favourably.'

DISORDERS in IRELAND.
(The Government of Ireland has lately made
great Exertions to trace the Tumults that have
lately agitated that Kingdom, to their Source.
To efferi this a secret Committee was chosen :
and from tbeir Report the following Particu
lars are extruded.] ,
" An unusual Ferment has for some
Months past disturbed several Parts of the
North, particular!) ihe Town of Belfajf
and the County of Antrim; it is kept up
by seditious Pamphlets, &c. printed in
Dublin and Belfaft,and issued from Clubs,
calling themselves Committees under va
rious Descriptions, and carrying on a Con
stant Correspondence with each other
These publications are circulated with In
dustry, defaming the Government and
Parliament, and diffatisfying the People
with the Laws, &c. The Condud of the
French is fhamefully extolled,arid recom
mended to the publick View as an Exam
ple for Imitation ; Hopes and Expecta
tions have been hejd up of their Assistance
by a Descent up6h this Kingdom, and
Prayers have been offered up at Belfaft,
from the Pulpit/for the Success of their
Arms, in the Presence of military Affpci
a(ions which have been newly levied and
arrayed in that Town.
A body of men associated themselves in
Dublin, under the title of thejftf Nation
al Battalion ; their Uniform is copied
from the French, green turned up with
white, white wailtcoat, and striped frow
fers, gilt buttons, impressed with a harp,
and letters importing, " Fifft National
Battalion," no Crown, but a Device over
the Harp of a Cap of Liberty upon a
Pike— Bodies of Men have been collect
ed in different Parts of the North—
armed and disciplined, under Officers
chosen by themselves, & composed mostly
of the lowest Classes of the People.
" These Bodies are daily increasing, in
Numbers and Force; they have exerted
their best Endeavours to procure military
Men of Experience, to aft as their Offic
ers ; some ofthem having ex preffly stat
ed, that there were Men enough to be
had, but that Officers were what they
wanted. Stands of Arms, and Gun
powder, to a very large Amount, much
above the common Consumption, have
been fern, within these few Months past,
xo Belfaft and Ngwo, and Orders given
for a much greater Quantity, which, it
appears, could be waited drily for milita
ry Operations. At Belfaft, Bodies of
Men in Arms are drilled and exercised
'or several Hours, almost every Night,
by Candlelight ; and attempts nave been
made to seduce the Soldier), which much!
^, the only Place that can ftp? the Ene
my for a Moment. What cannot follow
will be thrown into the Meufe.—Dumou
rier is making Conquests in Holland ;
but if not supported by considerable Forc
es, Dumourier, and with him the
Flower of the French Armies, may be
swallowed up.
" Parisians ! behold the Greatness of
the Danger ; will you permit the Ene
my again to lay waste the Land of Lib
erty, and burn Towns and Villages ?
" Parisians I it is against you in par
ticular this abominable War is directed, it
is your Wives and Children that are te
be massacred, it is Paris that is to be re
duced to Ashes ; recoiled that the inso
lent Brunswick has sworn not to leave
one Stone upon another.
" Parisians ! once more save the Com
monwealth, give an Example once more,
arise, arm, march, and these Band ot
Slaves will again give way before you.
" It is necessary to make a great Effort,
a terrible Stroke, a last Blow ! This
Campaign must decide the Fate of the
World ; we must dismay, we must exter
minate Kings ! Men of the 14th of July,
of the gth of Odober; Men of the loth
of August, awaken.
'' Your Brethren, your Children, pur
sued by the Enemy, surrounded, perhaps,
call to you ! Your Brethren, your Chil
dren, massacred on the 10th of August,
on the Plains of Champagne, under the
fmoaking Ruins of Life ; your Brethren
Gain at Genappe, bid you arise !—they
must be revenged!.':
" Let all the Arms be carried into the
Sedions; let every Citizen meet there ;
let us swear to save our Country ; let us
faveit. Misfortune alight on him who
Ihall hesitate; let to Morrow thousands
of Men leave Paris. This is the deadly
Combat between Men and Kings, be
tween Bondage and Liberty !
