ANECDOTE of Gen. LECOURBE.
BERNE,YULY 2%
A very lingular anecdote is related here of a re
tonnoitrifig.which Gen.Lecourbe made a few days
before the Ifrmißice :— ......
In order to effect a reconnoitring ^ expidition,
which was of the utmott importance, it was neces
sary that he ffiould be disguised in such a manner
as to be beyond the reach of difcoyery ; a miller,
Who came to him to make propositions refpe&ing
ft supply, suggested to him an idea. He invited
him to dinner, and plied him with bumper after
bumper. The wine soon had its effects and the
man fell into a'found deep. In this Situation four
confidential subaltern officers, by order of their
G neral, dripped the deeper, attired him in an
old uniform, and laced hat and carried him to an
put work fye diflance from the advanced guard.
Lecourbe mis fide dressed himfelf in the miller's
clothing, dulled himfelf as much as he was able,
' arid set out on his journey. It happened that on
his return, and as he was on the point of rejoining
his troops, he met a final! party of Austrian huf-;
fart; whom he accosted, telling them that a French
General was in the neighbourhood fall asleep,
whom they might easily take prisoner. The huf
fars eager for such a prize, followed Lecourbe to
- the foot where the miller lay asleep. The Gener
al led tnem thither Ilo%ly in order to avdid suspi
cion, but aS fobn as he had (hewn them the road, set :
off pretty rapidly. Having succeeded in the ob
jeft of his reconnoitring, Lecourbe reached his
read-quarters. The furprize of the Atiftnans.
when they learnt from^he miller himfelf the affair,
may be better imagined than expressed.

A CARD:
Dr. SPALDING,
Gives information that the Kine Fox has
had its usual course upontwo of his patient,
who were firft inoculated. The di(cafe, if
it may be called one, has been so flight as
not to prevent their usual occupation, nor
cause a tingle complaint of indifpotitioo. —
Neither of those had a fing!e pufttile. If
there had not been that particular appear
ance of the inoculated arm, it would have'
been very doubtful whether cither of thetri „
had been infe&ed ; as no other character-
Uftic of the disease appeared.
He has twenty other patients laboring
under\the different Pages of the fin'e-pox,
any of whom may be seen on applications
, One of these has felt some flight indifpofl,
tion, but not fufficient to prevent his usual
;aaivity. He has but fout pocky eruptions
—Two who are far advanced in the disease
Ihave experienced no ingifpofitfon and wilt
!not have a firigle pustule.,
j Dr. Spalding feels an assurance in faying,
I that these three leading fa&s are well ettab'
lifted by innumerable experiments. i.The
' kine-pox is a sure and effeayal preventive
of the small-pox. 2d. The kine pox is in
comparably lighter than the inoculated frpall
pox, seldom attended with any indifpofnicu.
3d. The kine-pox is not contagious, it can
not be communicated to one person from'
another, except by inoculation, therefore
any one in a family may fafely have the
kine pox, without any fear of infering the
others.
N. B. Inoculation for the kine pox as
usual. Portfmoutb, Ofl. xg.
WHEREAS I, JAMES STEPENS,
of New-Castle, have reported fundr,
times, That Robert Cole, did kill and
murder one Stephen Tarlton, (who fell
over board and was drowned at Kingston in
Jamaica,) and whereas I made and fprearf
said reports of the said Cole, without any
foundation, aS 1 have no reafoti to think that
the said Tarlton came by his death by any
other means than by misfortune, I acknow
ledge the said reports to be falfe and groiin&-
less, I ask his, the said Cole's pardon, for
making said reports, and am very sorry I
did.. -JAMES STEVENS.
