NEW BURY-PORT, February 6. ^
TueWav morning ai rived here the ihip Charles,
Capt. Perkins, in 45 days from Rotterdam. The
Csptain being a gem Ionian of information and ve
xacity, dependence may be placed on the following,
related by him— ,
That the French army were at Nimeguen, and
the Engliih at Aniheim. The Rhine, which is on
ly three quarters of a mile wide, is all that pre
vents the I'rcn h from purlning the Engliih.
The laic of November, lino of the French croi
fed the river on a raft, defuoyed a battery belong
ing to th<r Engliih, and threw the guns into the
river. Roiterikm and Amiterdam were prevented
being tak<« by the want of boats only to tranfport
their cannon enrols the Rhine. Should the wea
ther have continued cold as it was when Capt. P.
i; -lee', the river would be froze Efficient to bear the
whole French army. Maeftricht, Nmieguen, and
Mi nt;: were taken' The Prince of Orange was at
the Hague, and the Duke of York at London.
The King of Pruflia had withdrawn his troops
from acting againit France, having informed the
Engliih that he is in want of them to defend Liv
own country. Capt. P. did not. hear any thing oi
the treaty belwe^ji France and Pruifia.
Tht: Marquis de la Fayette, with two others, el
canid fVi in coufim merit the lalt or Novtmner —
thrv were pur feed, and one oi them (an Auirrian)
re-taken. The Marquis, with the other, arrived
at Hamburgh, and v^ill take pafsage for America.

wifn to find room for—the following is an extract i
from them :
“ ] he fall of a kingdom, like that of a mountain
flood, comes when we leak expect it—Britain* ! be
ware ; behold the dangers that furroune. yen, and
tremble for the couleip;-tiers. Involved in a ruin- |

picture of your preirnr ftate.

are we certain how that can be obtained. Let us
