THE 28th of last month, at three in the after
noon, a halh of lightning issued from a bright
cioud, not attended with either thunder or rain,
flruck.a flable in the village of Zoberiz, which it
let fire to, and the progress was so rapid, that it
instantly communicated to the neighbouring hou
ses, five of which were reduced to ashes.

Since yesterday our whole city has been in up
roar and confterhation. For feveial days a difeon
tent had been observed among the populace, which
had particularly for its object the exercifagfociety,
instituted for the laudable purpose of making im
provements in the use of arms, against which a
difguftfy the fame manner as at Rotterdam, hud
been excited—but, yesterday, it openly broke out,
and began.with the breaking of windows at one
of these people's houses, and a rough treatment of
the family—Upon this, the dragoons lying in gar
fifon here, and the city soldiers, were immediate
ly under arms, as also the Burgers, which in rota
tion mounted guard at the Council-house, where
the Lords of the Magistracy were likewise assem
bled the greater part of the night. Matters have
not made a flop here; the mob began this night
to weal-orange Coloured ribbons, and compelled,
others to follow their^xample, crying, "Orange
for ever." The Magistrates have taken the pro
per measures on this occasion, and have by procla
mation, nicky forbidden all mutinous assemblies
arid the wcaringAf ribbons: He has likewise pro^
mifed a reward of one thousand guilders to the dis
coverer of the author of these disturbances the
consequence of which has been, a remaikable quiet-,
nefs among the populace: Three persons have been,
apprehended Since. 1
This morning half after twelve o'Clock; the
mob gathered at the house of a baker, in order to
plunder it, but were prevented by the vigilance of
the Burgers and militia. A distillery was likewise
threatened, but the owner giving timely notice to
the council, received twelve dragoons for his as
lillance, who still continue there. Threats are
made against the next night, but it is hoped they
will be fruftrated. The Burgers will remain all
night upon their polls, and Strong patrols are go
ing through the city.
sane 14. Last Sunday evening, at 7 o'Clock,
a proclamation was read, and fixed up by order of
the magistrates .'of this city, forbidding all to di
stinguish themselves by cockades of any colour
whatever, under pain of being imprisoned fifteen,
days for the firft offence; three months for the se
cond; and banished from Leyden during ten years,
also from the 'Hague and their diftri&s, for the
third offence. Forbidding, moreover, all violences,
insults, and meetings in the Streets of more than,
five persons, on the penalty of imprisonment and.
corporal punishment for any ihfults or ill behavior:
And further, all those who excite or assist others
in pillaging houses, breaking windows with flones,
&c. are to Tuffer death. This publication, together
with the reinforcement of troops arrived from the
Hague, hath restored tranquility, and we flatter
ourselves, that these commotions will have no far
ther disagreeable consequences.

They write from AixTa-Chapelle, that a young
lady, named C r, married to M. d'E —, juru
President of the Parliament, has been found dead
in her bed, with her throat cut. She was not 24
years of age. As her purse only was miffing, and
her jewels had not been touched, it was fufpe&ed
that the murder was committed by some robbers.
Ihe dady's. woman and the domestics have fur
icndeied themselves prisoners. But now, the let
ters from Provence, Lave cleared up the matter:
A domeffte has confeffed the whole; he cut off the
head of the unfortunate Lady, by order of his ma
ster, who forcibly held her during the barbarous
operation, after having attempted in vain, to
Strangle her with three handkerchiefs. Eight days
before, he had attempted to poison her. Fifty^
