‘‘ Ou Thurlclay lfclt a meeting of louie of the
principal iufurgears rook place at Parkinfon’a ferry,
in order to raile, by fubfeription, a fum ofmpney to
indemnify the fufferers by the late infurrection.—
A committee of five perfons has been appointed to
repair to this place, to wait on General Neville and
the other fu&rers, to afcejrtaio the amount obthtfir
iofses—they are expected ^jltois day. Marlhall has
1o bieribed too pounds, John Cannon rbe fame, and
Pat kip Ion (who has returned) has alfo fubferibed
largely.’*
t\ factious party made a recent attempt to c^aint
the merit of the uegociation which Mr. Jay has fuc
ceedcd in completing- Hi (appointed in that rxt«a
vagant effort, they have now changed their key, and
in this morning’s Aurora, .one of the party has be
gun to ahufe the Treaty. Strange inconfift^ncy !
one day they arrogate the mkr.it of accomplilhirg
that which the next they revile
Do they vainly flitter tiiemlelves that by fuch
ridiculous and grola deceptions they will be able to
raile a ferious oppofition ti> the ratification of the
Treaty ? Their failure in*April laic, when a iiioilar
ftruorrie was made by the lame men to. prevent the
appointment of Mr- Jay> ought 10 teach them a’dif
ft rent conduct.
u,,t what-Can be expected of men, who, impelled
by foreign influence, tiiiappoinred in their ambitious

der all circumtrances, work hard to involve this
co 4uiry in wat ?
BALTIMORE, February 13.
Animeiligent p illenger arrived at Norfolk on the
firfr inftant, in the ihip Lovina of Baltimore, capt.
Parker, who left Amfrerdam on the 18th Novtm
ber, relates the following interefting intelligence :
The army of Pichtgru, after the capture of Mae
frricht^pulhed on towards Amfterdam. On the 8th
November they eroded the Waal, a branch of the
Rhine, with very little oppefition ; and on the i«pih
the prince of Orange fent^l, deputation to general
Pichegru to propole a fufgehfioh of holtilities for a
few days, for the pnrpofeof opening a negotiation,
towhotn the general replit^L “ that he would fuf
peud hoftilities, but Ihould i&ntinue the march of
the French army" On th<£j$th, only three days
before the veflfel failed, tHejPotefd but one canal to
crofs between them and Ailflft?rdr<m, and were only
feven miles from a nnich divided city,* a majority
of whole inhabitants were much infatuated with
their principles.
Thcv.al(o relate, that on.account of the rapid ad
van* e M the French army into Holland, the duke
of Ytit* had retreated 10 Amfterdam, where he was
rt-fufed- adntiflioB—and that he had in eonfequenfce,
retired to Vach, a Dutch village about ieven leagues
from that city, with an army confifting of about
23 000 men—That the Dutch army, of about 15600
men, commanded by prince Frederick, had retreated
to within three miles of R^terdam.—That after
the iurrender of M leltrichtl the emperor fent two
mini fie rs to the National Convention, to bring about
terms of accommodation-—that the Pruffian troops
were entirely withdrawn fince the ratification of
the treaty between France and that kingdom ; and
that on the 12th of Nov. intelligence was received
at Amfrerdam, that the KING OF SPAIN HAD
SIGNED a 1 REATYof PEACE WITH FRANCE
on the i3rh Oct. at Fontarabia ; and that all hof
tilities had actually ceafed accordingly on the bor
ders of Spain.
The Englilh fquadron under the command of Ad
miral Murray, that had been iome days lying in
Lynhaven bay, failed from thence on the Ut. inft.
NORFOLK, February 2.
On Thurfday evening arrived here the febooner
Regulator, capt. Fellows, in 5 days from New
York. On Wedneiday, in the latitude of iheCapes,
fpoke the brig Try all, bound to Philadelphia, out
50 days from Cadiz, who informed, the Ditch had
lued for a peace with the French; and that they
had offered to give them 12 fail of the line and a
million of florins.
AURI7NSBURG, February 23 .
The greateft poffible preparations are making in
England for another campaign—they even (peak of
levying 40 odd thouland new rectuits, befides filing
up old regiments-—and the appointments of officers
• 1 e innumerable. Behold a brilliant proft eft of peace
indeed.
On ihefecond infrant, there arrived in the Che
fipeak tw.i French line of battle ! hips and three
trigms ; they had on board an Ambafs'dor from
ll.c Notional Convention to 1 h< United States; and
it is reported he his with him a New Treaty be
tween f rame and America.
1 he Duk<* of’Brunlwick has peremptorily refu
sed to accept the command of the army in defence
of Holland.
The Prthdenr of the UniredStnres has appoinfcd,
hv the advice and < ont>-nt of the Senate. Oliver Woil

| By a late arrival at Bofton froraCadiz, we learn,
I that aPortuguefe fquadron had an eDgagemenr with
four Algerine frigates, that attempted iu come oui
of the Streights ; captured two of them of 36 guns,
i and drove ttie other two back to port.
From a critical Purvey of the laielt European in
telligence, we find not the fmalleftt prolpect of peace
with any one of the combined powers and France ,•
on the other baud, they are preparing a v;gorous
campaign for the enfuing fpring.— Prufta, enabled
by the unhappy reduction of the unfortunate Poles,
has already returned to the allies 20,000 tiaops—
Auftria intends furnifhing 60,000—England, molt
probably through fharne for tier late unluccefsful ma
rts iv res, will unite all her t (Forts both by lea and
land—Ruflia will be at liberty to act on a large,
fcale than heretofore—Spain, lufFsring beneath the
victorious fword of the Republican Sans Culottes,
will afford btit ftnall afliftance ,• and Sardinia will
do any thing for Money ! France teems equally prepar
ed for either conceit — America reaps the advanta
ges—The fuceffs of Mr. Jay will render her com
mercial intercourfe more exteolive,. as it renders it
Jafe—Her produce mull of courfe continue to rife ;
and ihould the war latl ’till thedgner endof next
Cummer, which there is every probability t^-xpect,
fhe will find the higheft market for the two tuiuing
crops—The amazing rile of product at prelVntfto
gether with this advantage, prefepts to the farmer
tlie moft flattering profpects, aad to the Country in
general a rapid advance of population.
From the London Star of December 9. under the
Dintzic head, after detailing the circuniftancesof
theefcape of La Fayette, adds the following un
fortunate information of the fate of that unhappy
Patriot :
_“ but by letters from Bre flair, of the i8fh, we
learn, thafethey had l ■ orated, the raaiqiis had al
ready reached Brauueifen, near Sternberg, where he
was’difeovered in conlequence of his liberality to
the Pott Mafter, in order to procure horfes, and
that he is at pretenr again fecured ar Olmutz. The
d tcror has alio been r.iken up at Sehweidnitzin the
king of Prufiia's dominions."
There are, unhappily, Tome characters, who watch
with unreu»ittVpgactennon to dilcov-er means where
by they may iujure the intereft of the delervingh
good man, wlien nothing on their own part can be
introduced to claim the paolic atUutiun —An ob
vious proof is now current1 ouch'd with a true
fenle of that regard which every ci-i '.tn ought to
feel for thofe who have deferv ed well of their coun
try, we made hold, without the advice of any party,
j to introduce a flight (ketch ot the fervices of mcj >r
i M ixwell, always determined, fmce 'ris the preru
! gative of the Press, to give juliice her true deine
! rir. — Unfortunately a wrong information txiiied,
relpecting the term that gentleman remained in the
army ; however, we are now certain it was better
than three years, and that in the mofc perilous cri
terion of the war, when a few u lid i lei p lined, raw
militia had to contend againlt the experienced fol
diers of one of the molt formidable powers in Eu
rope.—If the man who then fiept forth in defence
of his country's rights, to gain her Independence,
Liberty and Happinefs, does not deferve the well willi
es of his fellow citizens—may we not lay with pro
priet \—O gratitude ! where is thy abode ? O virtue l
whither haji thttujied? But the tools ot di (sen lion
have conitrued it into another meaning—they have
informed, and circulated a report that the commu
nication was intended as a burleique, or meant as
irony—the tenor of this paragrapn will lhew that
the piece originated in this Office, with no other po
licy than a deiire to beftow a fiuall tribute on a
worthy candidate of this county.
