BALTIMORE, June 13.
We are Informed, that there is a Hamburg pi
per'in town which mentions, that preliminaries cf
peace were flgned between the French and the em
peror, at Frankfort* on the 13th April.
The I!lt:fcrio:*r man of war, of 74 guns, one of
admiral Hoth.un's fleet, was lately loft near Leg
horn. Thus the lpl’s of the French and Engliih
Mediterranean fl ’ets app: a»s fo be equal.
A gentleman who came patsenger in the Rich
mond, informs, that a report prevailed at Brifrol,
previous to his leaving it, that a lecond engagement
happened between the French and Britilh fleets in
• h? Mediterranean, the Britilh admiral’s Ihip was
funk, but the particulars had not tranfpired—alio
•1 report of the French fleer con lifting of 25 fail nt
the line being in the Engliih channel. 'i liis J a it
intelligence was not generally credited.
Accounts are faid to have been brought by the
Richmond, that the French fleet have oeen reinfor
ced by 8 Jail of the line from Breft,ard that they had
blocked up the BritiIh fleet at Spe/in.
Extract fa letter from a rfpcctaUe houfe in Cadiz, re
ceived !‘j the IVillink. dated March 25.
“ This is ;o inform you, that by an exprefs which
■our G .ivernor received, we learn, that the Algerines
hav*: refilled to adrnita frigate, which wasTeut there
by Government with diipuuhes, and ti e Captain of
her was informed by order of the D y, th$t the Re
gency would hold no terms with Spain, in conle
xpience of which, we now conlider ourl. ives at war
with it, a circuinltatice v.hich affords the grearelt
fecurity to your velstls in Homing Fere.'*
A1A R TINS B UR G, Jam so.
Private accounts from K;-?: .rd by the Richmond,
| ft ate, tbit lha intelligent:- lecrived of a treaty be
S tween trance and P-misia, h-.d produced a very
| great fen •.‘■hion in Engl.'i d. The term0 of the irea
j l ., <»l v/hi. h we have given the outlives, afre highly
j glorious nd advantageous to i ho French ; the Prtif
| ii n<\ h-VAvwr, i: is very probable, w; r*. tlu hcret
| articles known, would be found to have made no
; bid nargiin. Perhaps H mover may be their por
tion in exchange for their territory weft of rlie
Rhine. This pe.ice with IVulsia mav be confident!
a the death blew to tile c.nlii ion of drfpots : it
will either produce its difsoiurian, or conduct them
to th=ir ruin ihrcngh defpnir—the fevernl power*
will each hr.hen to obtain tern s of peace, as their
lit nation wiH be more difficult, and thole terms
. more unfavourable in proportion as their coadju
tors fall off. England alone has little to hope even
from early fubmiflion ; the rooted and ancient en
iiii v of the French, whiirh nv.ift have received fo
trifling acecffion from her conduct during the pre
fenr war, leaves her to hope hut in a vigorous pro
fecution of the war, and the exertions it all her en
gines «f political craft to keep the enemies oi France
enre died. it is not difficult however to forefee
that her cffbrts prepare only her own ruin.
Extra fi from the Republican Francois, the l^th Vintcfe, the
4.'!: Evlr-rch.
A fact is now repre.bated, which gives a (hock
ing idea of the fVrocioufnefs of th»- monfrer who
had fvcceeded in fubjrigating all France. Trial a
comedian, and at the hmc time a magifirate of the
people, as v * Color d? Herbois, declared, fome mi
nute s before his death, that he died cnnvulfed with
r'-rnori’e, having car-fed the execution of rnadamede
, St Amaranthe, her beautiful d aughter, madame de
Sartine, her ion t-ged 16 years, her whole family,
and many oftheis friends. It happened in the fol
lowing manner : Robefpicrre end Trial were ad
mitted into madame de St. Atnaranthe's houfe, and
were frequntly there entertained at dinner. One
dav Robefpi'-rre, intoxicated wiih liquor, fpnke
with much indilcretion, at.cl even difclo'ed fome of
his purpofes in prefence of feme of the go efts an d
attendants. The next morning, Trial came with
eagernefs to Robefpierre, to remonltratc upon the
imprudence he had committed, and expofed to indif
cretion. Robefpierre pnufed a moment,^ten only
laid to Trial, ‘‘ be not unea(y." Two days after,
the whole family and all the fervants were guillo
tined. * _
