We do not find an article in the Lon
don papers receding our Negotiators
at Paris ; nor is there any truth in the
report, that an express passed through
Philadelphia, with dispatches to The
President from them.—[lt is full time,
however, our government teerc in pos
session of accounts from them.]—A
Halifax paper of the zift ult. relates,
" that letters from France, found on
board the Fly, an American vessel,
from St. Sebastian, for New-York, sent
in there, mention that the treaty be
tween America and that country was
progressing faft, and would probably
have been concluded, but for theindif
pofition of one of the Commiflioners :
that persons were to be appointed on both
sides, to afeertain the spoliations on the
American trade —and that the balance
of an old debt due to France was to be
applied as a compensation ; that the
commercial connexion between the two
countries was to be improved and the
Americans were to be put on a footing
with the most favored nation." That
these letters may have contained the
preceding terms we are not averse to
believe ; but we know of no ballance
due by the United States to France.
The United States owe to Holland a

In Italy, after a series of deadly and
inveterate conflicts, Victory has deferr
ed the standards of her favorite child,
Maffena ; who has been obliged to seek
Ihelter under the walls of Genoa, from
the reiterated attacks of General Me
las. All accounts agree, that the French
affairs in that quarter were in a disast
rous state ; and some that Maffena had
made offers to capitulate. A reinforce
ment, however, of 26,000 men, were
proceeding from Dijon, to fuccdur
him. Accounts from Gibralter, to the
28th May, received via Salem, men

from Genoa, dated the last of April,

which Gen. Melas would not accept ;
and that in consequence Gen. Maflena

the fubjea. The result was not konwn.

On Friday last, the 24th anniversary
of American Independence was cele
brated in this town, with every mark
of public and private demonßration of
joy. The dawn was uftiered in with
the roar or Artillery, the mafic of bells,
and the display of flags from the Dip
ping, and public edifices. At the usual
hour, the military companies paraded
and performed various evolutions and
marches ; the Light Infantry under
Capt. Sargent, and Artillery, under
Capt. Gardiner proceeded to the line
which separates Roxbury from Boston,
when they were met by Capt. Doggett's
& Curtis's companies of Artillery & In
fantry ; thedemi battallions, after firing
a general salute, then formed into one bat
tailion & reciprocated the pleasure which
the occasion and circumstance inspired.
The corps then separated, and each re
turned to their places of parade. The
Cadets, under Col. Perkins, remained
in town, as an escort to the civil proces
sion of the day, which proceeded to the
Old South Meeting-House at 12 o'-
clock, and consisted of his Excellency
the Governor, the Hon. Council stran
gers of diftindion, clerical, military &

For the United States' Oracle of the Day.
YORK, (Maine) JULY 5, 1800.
Yesterday the anniversary of Inde
pendendence was celebrated in this
town. The day was ushered in by the
difeharge of cannon, and ringing the
bell. At 12 o'clock, a number of the
most refpcdable citizens, having met
at Col. Preble's, moved from thence, a
proceffiort being formed, preceded by
the Artillery company commanded by
Capt. Clark, to the meeting house ; —
where a pertinent Praytr was made by
the Rev. Mr. Mellinger, an elegant and
spirited Oration was delivered by Mr.
Parker Cleaveland, A. B. to a crowd
ed audience ; and the celebrated song
of Adams and Liberty, was sung. The
procession then returned to Col. Pre
ble's, and partook of a handsome din
ner ; after which the following toasts
were drank, and echoed by repeated
difeharges of cannon from the Artille
ry, viz.
As the proteffors of Christianity have
been called upon to imitate the virtues
of Mr. Jrferfa, by the voice of a late
aifembly ; it is requeued to know which
of his virtues they are to imitate. Is
it the virtue of indifference to the ev
idence of any God ? The virtue of non
attendance upon every form of wor
ship ; the virtue of ridiculing religion
in all its institutions ; the virtue of dat
ing as hidorical facts things never had
a being ; the virtue of defaming an in
nocent neighbor ; the virtue of ap
plauding all the murders of France ;
or what other particular virtue may it
be ? As the profeffors of chriftianity
are unable to afeertain that Mr. % ev
er had any chriftian virtues, and very
much doubt if he is a Pagan Moralist ;
as Pagans themselves acknowledge the
existence of a Supreme firft cause, and
" twenty Gods or no God" would have
been thought of with abhorence by a
Tully and a Socrates.
Summer at present wears a melan
choly hue. The drought may be cal
led extreme, and the heat exceffiye, in
Portsmouth and its vicinity. June com
menced with heavy rains. The ift and
2d days it fell in copious Breams ; the
3d, were favored with beautiful Low
ers. From that period to the 22d, no
rain ; and from the 22d to this day,
scarcely rain enough to lay the dull.—
The Lowers of the 22d were a momen
tary relief to declining vegetation, but
not fufficient to arrest the progress of
desolating heat. Saturday July 5 Ther
mometer at 90 —Sunday at 98 & vary
ing to 94. Some individuals who
have planted large fields of grain will
not reap their own feed. Gardens on
high grounds almost ruined. The
country towns are very flourifhing.
Dover Berwick, Greenland, &c. plen
tifully supplied with rain. No serious
consequences are therefore to be,antici
pated, as the back country is always the
dependence of the sea ports.
