After a few moments Silence, which

j^_'.FRENCHKING:\;!
HE latest foreign Intelligence qomes from,
Philadelphia ; a PapefyofMgfch 16th, fe,Hp
'' Yesterday the Ship fio,is 'fc' K TERgY,
C?p,ain De Hart, arrived here from Lifan,
which Place he left on the loth of February.
Capt. De Ha et gives an Account of the
Decapitation of the unfortunate
LOUIS.
The following Particulars we hold from the
Captains and faithfully hand them to our
Readers, who will themselves judge whether
they are Sufficient to remove all Doubts, ref
peding the fate of that unfortunate King.
About the sth or 6ih of February, an Eng
lish Packet arrived, by which an Account was
-received that the King had,been beheaded.-^
His Sentence carried, that he should be execut
ed about ten in the Morning ; but the Fear
of Dift&banceS, ffiould tl,§ Execution be de
layed till that Hour, occasioned his Decapita
tion privately, at an early Hour in the Morn
ing, about 4 o'Clock.
On the Sth, a Handbill was said to have been
received from France, giving an Acpountof the
Execution. .This, Capraip DE H ar t did n^t
fee ; but on bis Reqpeft, a Frfend gaye him
the following as containing thp Sut>ftance of
it : ," Lisbon, February 8, 1793,
Th^ Post brought this Day a certainty of the
Execution of the KING of France, on the 21st
of January last, between to and 11 o'Clock of
the Day. Itis said he supported himfelf with
great Courage on the Occafon, mounted tire
Scaffold with great Deliberation, and attempt
'd to make a Speech, which tended to prove
his Innocence.—However, the Troops were
Ordered immediately to beat their Drums and
found their Trumpets, in order to prevent his
being heard ; which he perceiving, made a
Bow to all around him, arid laid his Head up
on the Block, and it wa^ immediately fevered
from hir Body; A Hole was dug in the Tem
ple C^uit, neat the ^caffottf, where ine tie^i
and Trunk were tb r ° w ri, then filled up with
eartti and paved. , As footi as the Execution,
was effe&ed, three Huzas were giveri by the
Speculators, H^ts thrown in the Air, and i^s
said, the Executioners, & many near the Scaf
fold dipt their Buttons in the King's Bloodies
Marks of Victory and Triumph.
The Queen and MadatneEL&z abet a were
put into jhe, common Goal, and committed
to civil Jitftice for Examination and Justice,
and a Report prevails that these were put to
Death two Days after.
Capt De Hart, further adds, that the
French Emigrants in Z^^ were jn mourning
for the King, and that not a doubt refpe&ing
his unhappy fate was entertained by those me
had conversed with on the fubjed in Lifotf:\
Tq this Account we must add, that Letters
so a very refpe&able House in this City, (Ebi
lad@ia)r€ceiva by this Vessel, do not men
„tion a word of this Catastrophe, yet certainly
the strong positive Affyrances given by ye.
Captain # re, foffifofto set aside this weak
^egatjye Rpof, though it appears finguTar,
that not ^ word (houldbe dropt on so intefeft

The Captain also tells—/That an Envoy ex
traordinary had been fen(to England by the
National Assembly, to negotiate ft terms of
Peace buLtbat the Court of Gr^fo
^ fed to^ckn^w/efee any Mufefs.from, the
^ng. The Envoy returned, and upon §v-
? n g. Account t of his m^on, it was there re
marked, that it would soon be entirely out, of
negotiating Mixb thfcKing.
