LONDON, OCT. 2t.
AT a late hour last night we re
ceived by express a Series of Pa
ris Journals to the 17th inst. by which
we are enabled to present our readers
not only with the afflicting details of
the late difafter^ in Switzerland, but
also with a Telegraphic communica
tion of the defeat of the Archduke
Charles, who is ft,.ted to have Bech
driven facrofs the. Rhine (probably in
the neighbourhood of Schalfhaufen, to
which quarter his highness had repaii
ed with his army) with the loss of 20'00
men killed or wounded, 1000 prison
ers, fix standards, and several pieces of
cannon. Among the llain is a Gen
eral of the Corps of Conde, which of
. course formed a part bf the difeomfit
ed force. The details of this unfortu
nate affair cannot be expelled till the
next arrival from France. The main
fact, however, we fear is indisputable ;
and happy shall we be if the grievous
combination of disasters which has late
ly befallen the Imperial arms on the
fide of Switzerland, does not prove dc
cifive of the Rate of the campaign in
that quarter. '
The attack made the day before yes
terday by the garrison of Kehl had
principally for its object to reconnoitre
the entrenchments railed by tne enemy
at Auenhcim, against the left bank of
the Rhine, and to deftroy' a part of
them. Our troops advanced in two
columns. Gen. Soucham who com
mands at Rhel conduced the attack.
Gen. Dtrcaen marched with the left
column to Auenheim, took possession of
that place, and repulsed tlic ^nemy as
far as Bifchafheim. The right drtimn,
under the command of Gen. Beaure
gard, drove the enemy from Sunthient
and took Neumuhl. The end of the
operation was completely attained, and
towards night our troops resumed their
former positions.
Since the precipitate departure of the
Archduke from the vicinity of Man
heim, there remains between the Mein
and the Nechar only a small Austrian
cotys under the command of the Prince
SeMtafzenberg.
This inllant we learn that the
Army of the Rhine palled that river
the day before yesterday, at Mentz, &
directed its march against Manheim;
\Gen. Marefcott is arrived at Mentz;
of which he has taken the command.
Cen. Dufour, whom he succeeds, sets
out immediately for Luxembourg.

I beg to inform you, that I yester
day failed from Ufk, with the Hally,
Defender, and Cracker, Brigs, and Isis,
Schuyt ; and having reached this place
by Four A. M. I proceeded with the
boats to attempt cutting out the Dutch
gun-boats lying on or near the Pam
pus, and am happy to fay, succeeded
in getting possession of Four without
the loss of a man. They each mount
four long guns or carronades, and have
between 20 and 30 men ; one of them
built on purpose for a gun vessel and
quite new, carrying two song 18 poun
ders in her bow, and two 18 pound
carronades on her broadlide, the rest
are Schuyts.
I have sent the Deserter with charge
of the gun-boats, and have the honor
to be, &c,
BEING detained here by contrary
winds; which deprived me of the pleal
ure of anting with you in the Zuyder
Zee, I proceeded to reconnoitre the
port of Delfzel, where I discovered a
(loop of war and a schooner lying with
in musket (hot of the batteries ; & con
ceiving it practicable to carry them by
coup de main, I gave the necessary. or
ders for the purpose, but the weather
proving terrtpeftuous ribthing could be
effected until the 18th at night. Delfzel
being distant 20 miles from the Circe,
the boats proceeded with the firft of the
tide, and arrived there just as the moon
went down ; at which time I ordered
the attack, to be made by Lieutenant
Maughan upon the (hip, and Lieuten
ant Pawle upon the schooner, whb
boarded and carried them in a most
gallant manner, and I am happy to
fay without any loss, notwithstanding
die enemy's guns were loaded, primed,
arid the matches lighted. The name
of the fllip is the Lynx, of 12 guns, 8
and 12 pounders, and 75 men ; that of
the schooner, the Prefens, mounting
eight 4 pounders, and 40 men.

That the American conful-gerieral
having demanded of the agency, a dim
inution of the duties as being too bur
thenfome, & the agency having exam
ined the affair, it has decreed as follows:
Art. I. The duties on importations
by neutrals, is reduced to 10 per cent,
payable in money on the departure of
the vessel.
The Arrete, under the commercial
head, altho' it has the appearance offz
voring American commerce ; yet its es,
fe& will prove quite the contrary, and
Dr. Stevens, by his demand on the a
gency to lessen the former duties, may
be justly said to hffvc “ gained, a loss!"
The old duty of 12} per cent, was be
fore the passing of this Arrete, paid in paper,
which could be purchased at 3 to 5 p.c. discount.
The agency now decree that the duties
shall be paid in money, i. e. hard cash,
which excludes the Americans from a
{peculation on their affignats, and con
fequcntly renders the duties higher than
before.

Major General Hamilton prefaces hi, Orders
to the Military of the United States, after reci
ting THE PRESIDENT'S orders zs&sws:—
The impreffite terms, in which this great na
tional calamity is announced by the President,
could receive no new force from any thing that
might be added.. The voice of pratfe would
in vain endeavour to exalt a ch^rader, unrival
led on the lifts of true glory. Words wonld in
vain attempt to give utterance to that profound
& reverential grief, which will penetrate every
American bosom, and engage .the sympathy of
an admiring world. If the fad priviledge of pre
eminence in sorrow may justly be claimed by
the companions in arihs of our lamented Chief,
their affections will fpontanebufly perform the
dear though painfdf, duty. 'Tis only for me to
mingle my tears with those of my fellow sold
iers, cherishing with them the precibus recol-
Icftion, that while others are paying a merited
tribute to" THE MAN OF THE AGE,' we
in particular, allied as we wetc to him by a clo
ser tie, arc called to mourn the irreparable loss
of a kind and venerated Patron and Father. ,
In obedience to the directions of the Prefl
dent, the following funeral honors will be paid
at the several Rations of the army. t
At day break sixteen guns will be fired in
quick succession and one gun at the diflance of
each half hour till fun fct. ,
The bier will be received by the troops form
ed in line presenting their arms, and the officers
drums and colors saluting ; after this the pro
cession will begin ; the troops marching by ph
toons in inverted order, and with arms reversed
to the place of interment; the drums muffled
and the music playing a dead march.
The bier carried by four fearjeants and atten
ded by fix pall bearers, where there is cavalry,
will be preceded by the cavalry and will be fol
lowed by the troops on foot. Where there is
no cavalry, a detachment of infantry will pre
cede the bier, which itfelf will in every case be
preceded by such of the clergy as may be pre
sent. The officers of the general ftaff will im
mediately succeed the bier.
Where a numerous body of citizens shall be
united with the military in the procession, the
whole of the troops will precede the bier, which
Will then be followed by the citizens.
When arrived neat the place of interment,
the procession will halt. The troops in front
of the bier will form in line, and opening their
ranks will face inward to admit the passage of
the bier, which will then pals thro' the ranks,
the troops leaning on their arms reversed while
the bier passes! When the bier shall have pass
ed, the troops will resume their position in line,
and reverting their arms will remain leaning
Upon them until the ceremonial shall be closed.
The Music will now perform a solemn air,
after which the introductory part of this order
shall be read.

AN ESSAY ON CENTURIES.
. MR. PEIRCE,
During the procession of the troops to the place
reprefneting that of interment, and until the
conclufen of the ceremonial, minute guns will
be fired.
At the end of this, a detachment of infantry
appointed for the purpose will advance and fire
three vollies over the Scir. The troops will
then return; music playing the President's
march, the drnms previously unmnffled.
The uniform companies of militia arc invited
to join in arms the volunteer corps.
The commanders at particular Rations, con
forming generally to thio plan, will make such
exceptions as will accommodate it to situation.
At places where proceffibns of unarmed citi
zens shall take place, it is,the with of the Major-
General that the military ceremonial Ihould be
united. , And the particular commanders at
those places are authorifed to vary the plan, so
as to adapt it to the circus dances.
Brigadier General Macpherson is charged
to superintend the cerimonial in the city of Phi
ladelphia. Major Toussard will attend to
Fort Mifflin and will co-operate with him.
The day of performing the ceremonial at each
Ration is left to the particular commander.
Major-General Pinckney will make such
further Arrangements within his diftri& as he
shall deem expedient.
