SUMMARY.—AFFAIRS OF EUROPE
The last advices from Europe, are co
the 7th September. At that time the
French forces were penetrating into the
United Netherlands. They had taken
Slurs, and were investing Rotte dam.—
The towns taken in this quarter are Y
pres, Nieaport, Oftend, Courtrai, Dix
inude, Oqdenardo, Bruges, Ghent, 3ruf.
fels, Louvain, Malhes, Dundermonde,
Mens, Charleroi, Tiriemont, Namur,Ar.
lon and Spires; towns and cities well
known to the Readers of the hiftory of
the German wars. The field of Mars
has been less bloody for some years past,
than in the former part of the campaign.
On the part of Spain, two or three cities
in Biscay have been taken by the French,
but the Spanish government, at the date
of our lalt account# from Spain, was
pursuing the most spirited measures toar
reft the march of the French, or oblige
them to gait their territories. For this
purpose, one-thi d of the able-bodied
men in Navarre and Biscay were put in a
f^te of • qMillion ; and are debarred the
rr/Qt of procuring substitutes. Bil-
V 3 *" n °' captured ; nor was the event
*mch expeded, although some fears had
. been excited at that place. In Poland,
the brave Kolkiulko Bill holds up again#
A gentleman of veracity from the wef
•ward informs, that Brandt, the celebrated
Indian chief and warrior, has declared bim
fef an enemy to the United S ales, and bat
actually put bmjelf a: the bead of zoo cbojen
•warriors of the Six Nations, ad marched to
join the combintd Indians oppojed to the Fede
ral arm, under Gen, Wayne.
When felting out, brands is fetid to have
declared, that uecgs bad ever attended bis
enterprises, and that the moment be coulci give
4 Igeneral defeat to Gen Wayne's array, be
fauld be ready and tailing to ate.
Gen. Wayne's Jucceffs bave gained him the
ill <wtll of all Upper Canada, as it rentiers
the Indians more exorbitant in tbetr demands
for Ju,plies, 'de. to be furmfoed from the
Briiijbfores. Governor Simcoe is Known 10
<urje bis good buck fas he terms it.) -And
it is Jaid by gentlemen lately from Niagara,
that thssf.tellite of the BrittJh court bus ac
tdaily bid up one hundred guineas to the
perjon that fball la, before him ibe bead or
fcaf of Gen. Wayne.
We still are uncertain as to what time
we fell tarry here. Parties of horse are
detached to fcoor the country :—Lad night
they brought in ten of the Infargems, and
this day two or three. Among these are
federal notorious rebels.; o>e being accu
sed of forging letters, with the signature
of the Governor, expressing a with that
?' people would perfittin their opposition,
and they would be protested." Another
is accused of cutting, and a third of hew
ing the pole set up in this place. They
Lave been examined and committed to
gaol to ftaod trial at the Federal Court to
be held here.

PITTSBURG, OCT. 18.
We tire informed by the pottrider that 1
he palled the Jersey and Penn, troops
between Carbite and Bedford, and they
were to be jined by the Maryland and
Virginia troops at Bedford, when sheyj
will march for this country. The mem
ber exceeds the req^fiuon demanded by
the President of the United States.
The firtt io were taken about 12 miles
dist-ant (over the mountain) without any
refinance, out of one houic.
Jam told that information is received
that about ico, more are cplleded about
20 miles off; 'cis expelled a party will
be detached a';er them this evening.

The Jaft accounts direct from France,
ante by the Ihip Hudson, Capt. Glover,
arrived at New- Bedford, from Dunkirk,
which are as late as the 29 h August.—
The papers contain little more than thei
capture of F>ntarabia, in Spain, near
which the French are laid to have taken
i2,v00 ruufcu, tents for zfcooomen,
zoo cannon, and 3000 prisoners. No
mention is made in the papers,of the cap
ture of Slays, Valenciennes or St. Se
bafiian ; but reports of the two former
were in circulation, and believed at Dun
kirk. >'
r .FROM GUADELOUPE.
Captain Shaw, arrived from Guada
iloupe, via Portsmouth, in 22 days, in
:forms, that at the time of his failing, the
French were complete matters of the
; whole island, except Basseterre ; that their
flag was flying within a few miles of that
/place ; that the inhabitants were quit
;iting Basseterre with all poffiblc freed ; and
A veffcl has arrived at Cape-Ann, in 56
dip from Bilboa. By her we learn, that
a^the time of failing, Bilboa was not ta
ken by the French, ps reported, nor were
the inhabitants under any solid apprehen
lions ol such an event. The French had
penetrated buta few leagues into Spain,the
Spaniards were strongly entrenched ; „nd
the molt spirited exertions were making,
not only to eheck the French, but to force
hem to quit the kingdom. The u^moft
confidence wai paced in their General, the
the Count Le Union ; and that merchant,
of the fidt eminence had gone into' the ar
my, at the held of battalions and compa
nies of Eifcayans.
O In the New-York Duly Advertiser,
the toilowing comprebenh-e view is taken
of the slate of European Politics to the sth
Sept. Bating, " To^t the Spaniards con
ceive themselves dangerously situated ;
that the Poles have a good chance of scath
ing cut the featpn ; that the convention of
France has affumtd a degree of freedom,
candor, and tranquility unknown for a
twelve month patt : that the Prince Co
bourg had resigned the command of the ar
my, to the Arch Duke Charles, who is to
have Geo. Mack for his mentor ; that
the French continue to bombard Slays,
which cannot hold cat long ; that the
fuolidies offered by the court of Great-
Brtain, to the emperor is Bated to be
60,000,c00 of Haitian fl rins, abow
7,cco,qgol. Veiling, which it seems he has
accepted, and of conference will defend
bis own territories at the expence of Great
Britain ; that the capture of the Sybelle
French frigate is likely to be the cause of
d fference between Great Britain and the
Porte, as the Turks contend ihe is not a
awful prize, being in their territories ;
that the French army of the North are on
the point cf commencing active opera
tions ; that letters from Amsterdam men
tor. the French were marching in 7 ce
umni to att^dtfreda; &t it was laid at
Leyden, od^^heth of Augurt, an a&ion
took plac4|^J,Toogres in which 7000
Austrians Mu defeated 15000 of the
French ; and that Gcn. Pichegru had
demanded, from the new administration 0:
the French Republic, zoo,coo men : with
whom he had pledged biuJef to conquer
Holland ; one hundred thousand has Dech
granted."
A letter from Vienna, (the capital of
Germany,) dated the ig.h Augart Uy;
'' A miriftnid conference was held t<,
day, at which the Extra Envoys at Great-
Britain, Lord Speaker and Grenville, at

ditions propefed, and has promised to con

it would seem, that Great Britain is the
main-day of the opposition again it the
Franco Republic.

MR. Jar's MISSION.
The left official dispatches from Mr.
Jay„ dated August zd. the public are in
possession of. There were others, dated
about the 15th Aug. on board the Ante
lope British packet, lately captured by
the French ; but they were thrown over
board and funk: The public expectation
mast therefore remain suspended a few
days longer, when probably duplicates
will be received by other vcffels expected.
With ths dispatches already puolilhcd,
the orders of the British Government to
the Governor-General of Canada, were
sent to Mr. Hammond, unjeaud, that they
might be infpe&d by the proper officers
of the United States, previous to their
being feat on. The British Minister has
since sealed them, and sent them on by
exptels.

miffijuers, whom Damourier betrayed in
to the hands of Prince de Cobourg, & whe
we are sorry to observe received much
more indulgence than the Marquis, or hu
companions.

A letter from Brinn, in Moravia, dated
Aug, 8. (peaks of the Marquis la Fayette
now elofely confined in the fortrefs of Spi

and Puzy, his faithful friends, attended
the Marquis.
They arc treated with much more seve
rity, and more elofely confined, than when
prifonrrs to the king of Prussia. These dis
tinguished perlons fufiain the bitter aggra
vation of fortune with unparalleled mag
nanimity, and although the Marquis fuf
fer, an ignominy defined to the meanest
uhlcf&r, yet his persecutors have not
been able to subdue his spirit, which, e
ven in dismal dungeons, soars towards ac
tiffi which ennoble humanity.
Since his arrival at Spielberg, the Mar

meffic, who bad during the series of ad
verfiry to which he bad been doomed, af
forded his master much consolation.
