BY advices from Poland we hear, that on the
17th of April, the Montenegrins, who have
revolted against their Sovereign, the Grand Siga
nior, gave battle on the banks of the Marizza, to
40,000 Janizaries, Arnots, and Timariots, led by
the Begler Bey of Upper Albany. The latter
were defeated. After the action the conquerors
despoiled the, dead, and thus caught the infection
of the plague, which then raged in the Turkish
army.
A letter from Gibraltar, by the Lisbon mail',
fays, that two large Barbary corsairs lately fell in
with a small Spanifli frigate, when a very hot fir
ing ensued, whicli was kept up on both sides for
three quarters of an hour, when the Captain of
the,frigate finding that the Moors were too power
ful for him, made a running fight of it, and took
shelter under the guns of Gibraltar. The Spani
ards had a 'great -many men killed and wounded;
the ratter were taken on Tore to have their wounds
drefled, till the frigate is made fit to carry them to
Cadiz.
It is whispered, that the Spaniards have offered
to government, East and Weft-Florida, "raff 1
Rico, and three millions of dollars, in exchange
for Gibraltar., 6
It is laid the Emperor looks at this time to the
recovery of Lorraine and Alfatia, the possessions
of his ancestors; and from the Dutch he requires
Maeftricht, and twenty-four parishes in its neigh
bourhoods,, In these enterprizes he expe&s to be
aflifteclby the Empress of Ruffa; but according
to the last news, the Prince of Nassau Wilburg
had orders to repair to Maeftricht with two regi
ments, and to repel force by force. It isexpe&ed that
a treaty or alliance between France and Holland
will take place, to bar the Emperor's pretensions.
The levity of the French nation, it is to be fear
ed, will not long be contented with the calm pur
fait of the arts of peace. The commerce of the
Indies has long been an object of ambition to
France. The naval preparations at Toulon and
Amsterdam, and the intrigues of the French at
the Hague p predict a revival of hostilities in the
East.
The broken spirit of the Ottoman Porte appears
in the east and in the weft; in the most humilia
ting conccfhons to Russia, and in the most Magni
ficent presents to the second branch ofthe House
of Bourbon.
Ihe city of Antwerp once Shone in history as
the chief part of trade on the continent, long be
fore Amsterdam was built, or exhibited that fplen
dour which now distinguishes it. The Dutch,
fearful or its trade reviving, when there would be
a great competition between the Hollanders and
Flemmings, took an opportunity of the distressed
situation of the House of Austria to block up the
Scheld, by finking not only two vessels in the mid
channel, but also a very large iron chevaux-de
frize, which they hoped would be a perpetual bar
td opening the navigation up to Antwerp. The
Emperor Joseph's spirit will, however, overcome
the policy of the ancestors of the present race of
Dutchmen, and Antwerp may again Shine in his
tory, to the great disappointment and vexation of
the Dutch nation.
The Emperor's requisitions to the States Genera!
arc, perhaps, the most arbitrary and insulting that
eyer appeared in history. His demands are not
only unqualified, but are made in defiance of de
cency, and clearly Shew that no alternative ^ill be
allowed between a war, and the inoft abjeft, the
most humiliating concessions.
Extract of a letter from Bath, April, ig,
" We have had herd the Marquis de Bouille,
with two other French gentlemen of distinction,
for Some time pad, and are much pleated witli his
politeness and deportment; which are all thought
to be such as suit well the favourable ideas which
had been conceived of him from his character and
conduct in the Weft-Indies. He has taken seve
ral fit occasions of expressing a high sense of the
great civilities and compliments which he received
in London; and has very handsomely Spoken of
the English officers of his acquaintance, who have,
either by lea or land, done most honor anft ser
vice to their country in tlie Weft-Indies, viz.
Admiral Barrington, Lord, Hood, General Mel
vile, and Governor Ferguson: but it is remarked
that he has obferyed an entire silence with refpe&
to bur two heroic conquerors of St. Euftatia,
