THE Fre’ocb armies on ihe north were

defedded by their garnfom. By this re
treaebf the Enghih add Ddtch troops, thote
fortrefles are Jett without any'hope of ex*
tersaT facco&f? The , French have done'
there M they did on'tbeir own Fontier*—
theyhave pelted by the ftroo^ places off re
st would fake time and d4fay their
progrefe, 'and Breda and Bet gen* op- Z join,
thus left-in the midtt pf the enemy’s con*'
quells, most follow the fine of Valencien
nes and Conde. This plan of leaving strong
ho’ds behind art army is not often hazard
ed ; ;ahd never can be fate, Except when an
army is greatly superior to its foes. \
Ohe of the largell diyifions of the French
•army is near Maeftficht, a ftroogly fortifi.,
ed town, ihe taking cf which will open a
peffage for rhe French to the Rhine. Should
rhe French f aceted in cutting off all com*
munication between the Dake of York and
the Aulirian Cordon on the Maefe, the ‘
Duke muff ,re:j t e to AnHlerdam, and take
Clipping for fafety.
The French now conquer by terror.--
The firongeff garrisons surrender without
refilhnpe to prevent the danger of a general
maflaCre, which the breach threaten in

French'do hoc make thu fame r apid prog

The report of the retaking of Fontarabia, _
rests on flight evidence j and if true, later

The union of Geneva with the French Re*
public, is an eveht of confequencc ; not on
accoont of any great acceflion cf ftrength’
to France, but bccaule it makes the pro

Euope. r ; <• 7 ’
in this letter view, the infufr^ion in

( As a di veriion in favpar of the Poles, it is
al this critical moment highly important ;
