PAUL THE FIRST.
PAUL THE FIRST.
IT is certain that Count Shouvalow have been desired to withdraw from Peterburgh, on account of their having been accessory to the assassination of Paul the First.
IT is certain that Count Shouvalow have been desired to withdraw from Peterburgh, on account of their having been accessory to the assassination of Paul the First.

we know not; but, according to the most au- thentic advice, there were more than thirty conspirators of distinction implicated in it, that three lots who should undertake the office. The lot fell on Counts Subow and Olow, and an Austrian General; but from the ready ac- cess, they found to the deceased Emperor's ap- artments there is no doubt but that some who were in his personal service, were accessories on the occasion. It is even said, that a Nobleman who had supped with Paul on the night of his death, was not much surprised on hearing what had passed. Indeed, who could be the friend or confidant of such a tyrant, except from necessity.
The manner in which the conspirators gained the Royal Chamber, was by a most private staircase, used only for the purpose of his in- trigues; they had a false key to it. Paul was a- larmed by their approach, and jumped out of bed concealing himself behind a large screen in his room. The conspirators were extremely no- isy on searching the bed and finding their vic- tim had escaped. They searched the apartment, and in attempting to hold the screen, the Em- peror was discovered behind it. At first, he made every possible concession, offering to abdi- cate and retire where ever it was most conven- ient; he was shown the order he had signed to shut up the Empress, in a convent, and to trans- port the present Emperor to Siberia; and was told that his reign had been so unjust and ty- rannical, that the monarchy would be endan- gered by his continuing to live. Finding that intreciliation was in vain, Paul determined not to die without defending himself, and made use of every possible resistance, until he was at length strangled with his own sash. The whole horri- ble affair did not take up much more time than an hour, and happened between half past twelve and two in the morning.
This scene took place in the new palace built by Paul the First, upon which he had expended the enormous sum of nineteen millions roubles. The building was furnished with so much taste, that a great deal of the most costly tapestry and furniture has been spoiled. The kingdom is impoverished so much by his extravagance, that the treasury cannot find the means even to defray the expenses of repairing our shipping according to the promise which was made in a late Royal Ukase.
The following circumstance is mentioned in a letter, from an Officer on board one of our ships off Brest:—The French have taken three sail of the line from the Spaniards, and hoisted their colours, in payment they say for maintaining them!!! This is the true spirit of French tra- ternity.
LONDON, JULY 27. We yesterday received Paris papers to the 24th inst. They bring us an account of the Swiftsure of 74 guns, Rear Admiral Sir R. Bickerton, commanded by capt. B. Hallowell, having been captured on the 24th ult. between Candia and Egypt. This ship, which formed part of Lord Keith's force in the Mediter- ranean, but which was cruising detached from the squadron, fell in with the French squadron on the road between Candia and Egypt. Ac- cording to the Moniteur, the French ships in the chase, separated from one another, and the Swiftsure attempted to pass through them, when two only, the Indivisible and the Dix d'Aout, the latter, we believe, a 90 gun ship, engaged her. Notwithstanding this acknowledged dis- parity of force, the Swiftsure maintained the action for an hour, but was compelled at length to strike. While this event furnishes the Mon- iteur with an opportunity of boasting that in the month of Messidor, two British seventy- fours have fallen into the hands of the French, it occasions in us no other feeling than that of regret for the seamen whose valor deserved bet- ter success, and who, under circumstances in any degree more equal, would, we are satisfied, have given a very different account of their enemies. From the circumstance of no men- tion being made of the British Admiral being on board the prize, we are led to hope that he must have shifted his flag.
LONDON, JULY 28. We yesterday received Paris Papers to the 25th inst. which contain no intelligence of im- portance, if we except a statement in some of the Papers of the return of Gen. Ganteume to Toulon, after having landed his Troops, twenty leagues from Alexandria. In two of these Papers, the Journal de Paris and the Citoyen Francois, this fact is asserted with some confi- dence. In another, however, which is better informed than either of them, the Ciel du Cab- inet, it is more doubtfully stated, while the Moniteur, and demi official Journal des Defen- seurs della Patrie, which seems to pride itself on naval intelligence, are wholly silent on the sub- ject. We can hardly be expected to believe that the French official Papers themselves do not venture to state; and if any can suppose that Ganteume had actually arrived at Tou- lon, and that the fact is intention- ed, it must be because he has returned with all his Troops on board, and thus has failed in attaining the great object of his expedition.
One important fact however we learn, thro' the channel of France, though the Paris papers are silent on the subject, that the Chief Consul has ratified the Treaty entered into with Portu- gal. Whether Bonaparte has been led to do this by the representations of Spain, in conse- quence of her new connexion, we know not, but it seems to us more probable that the Court of Lisbon had obtained this ratification in the on- ly way in which successful negotiations have hitherto been carried on with France, by secret pecuniary sacrifices.
Letters received from the El Carmen, of 36 guns, dated off Cadiz, the 22d ult. state that she had captured four Prizes, three of which had arrived at Gibraltar; that a few days previously to the date of the letter; the El Car- men chased two French Frigates into Cadiz Bay, under the batteries—They had on board two French Rear Admirals, to take the com- mand of the Spanish Fleet, consisting of twelve sail of the Line and four Frigates, fitting for some secret Expedition at Cadiz. The Vener- able, of 74 guns, Superb, of 74, and Cambrian, of 44, were off that Port, watching their mo- tions.
The sailing of the Spanish Squadron had been retarded by the circumstance of one of the large naval store houses in the Dock yard of Cadiz having taken fire, and been totally de- stroyed, with a large quantity of stores.
Ad. Lord Nelson received his Commission on Saturday from the Lords of the Admiralty: to take the command of the North Sea Squadron: his Lordship set off this day.
FROM EGYPT—OFFICIAL. LONDON, JULY 21. From General Hutchinson, to Lord Hobart. Head Quarters, Camp near Alkham, June 1, 1801.
I have the honor to inform your Lordship, that the French abandoned the position of El Ari, on the 7th of May, which we occupied the same evening, and on the 9th we advanced to Rahmanich, where the French were posted with upwards of 300 infantry, and 800 caval- ry. We at first imagined that they might have endeavoured to have maintained that position; but our corps on the eastern bank of the Nile having got into their rear, took the fort of Rahmanich in reverse, which probably induced the enemy to retire in the night between the 9th and 10th, leaving a garrison in the fort, which surrendered in the morning, amounting to 110 men, commanded by a Chief de Brigade. As the enemy retired towards Cairo, it became ne- cessary to follow them, in order to cover the army of the Grand Vizier, and to secure a junction with the expected reinforcement from India—Nothing happened of any importance until the 14th, when we fell in with a valuable convoy of Gerns on the Nile. They had come from Cairo down the Canal of Menouff, which joins the Damietta and Rosetta branch- es of the river. From this circumstance, they knew nothing of the retreat of Gen. La Grange from Rahmanich. About 150 prisoners fell into our hands, and several heavy guns, some of them intended for the defence of Alexandria. The convoy itself was very valuable, and is a great loss to the enemy. We found on board all kinds of clothing, wine, spirits, &c. and about five thousand pounds in money. On the 17th, when encamped at Alkham, we were in- formed by the Arabs, that a considerable body of French, coming from Alexandria, were ad- vancing towards the Nile, near the spot where the boats of the Captain Pacha then were. The cavalry were immediately ordered out with two pieces of cannon, under the command of Brig- adier General Doyle supported by the brigade of Infantry. Col. Cavalry, who commanded the French convoy, as soon as he perceived the boats of the Captain Pacha, suspected that our army must be near, and therefore retired into the desert, where we followed him. The caval- ry came up with him, after a march of about three hours. A flag of truce was sent in to them by Maj. R. Wilson of the Hussars, re- quiring them to surrender, on condition that their private property should be respected, and that they should be sent to France by the first convenient opportunity. With these terms they complied, and laid down their arms. They amounted, in all, to about 600 men, Infantry, cavalry and artillery, together with a considera- ble portion of the dragoon corps; one four pounder, and 550 camels. The prisoners taken are all Frenchmen, and of the best troops they had in Egypt. The garrisons consisted of a- bout 700 men; so that in all we have taken, from the 9th to the 20th, near 1600 men, which makes a considerable diminution of the enemy's force in this country. The French made a most extraordinary rapid march from Rahmanich to Gizah, where they arrived on the 13th, and im- mediately crossed the river of Boulaq. On the 15th they marched to attack the Grand Vizier's army. His Highness anticipated their inten- tion, and made a forward movement with a considerable body of cavalry on the night be- tween the 15th and 16th. The armies remain- ed for some hours in presence of each other, when the Ottoman troops attacked at about eight o'clock in the morning, and after an action of seven hours, the French retired, having lost between 3 and 400 men killed and wound- ed. They were nearly the same people who had retired from Rahmanich, and were about 4000 or 4500 men.
I congratulate your Lordship upon the event of this very important action: I have also much pleasure in informing you, that the Mam- elukes, under the orders of Osman Bey, (suc- cessor of Murad Bey,) have joined us to the a- mount of about 1,500 cavalry, inferior certainly to none in the world. I am sanguine enough to hope that the most serious good effects will a- rise from this junction, as they have a most intimate knowledge of the country, and the greatest influence amongst the inhabitants.
I have the honor to be, &c. (Signed) J. H. HUTCHINSON.
P. S. A letter has just reached me from Lieut. Col- Murray, dated Cairo the 14th of May, informing me of his arrival with the first division of the Bombay detach- ment of troops, and that he was in daily expectation of Gen. Baird with the remainder.

INTERESTING DISCOVERY. A coal mine has been discovered in Balti- more county, about a mile from the city, which promises to render fuel, much cheaper to our citizens, than it ever has been procured in this country. All the objections to coal, which have hitherto prevented the general use of the Richmond and Liverpool coal, are inap- plicable to this lately discovered, which is said to partake of the qualities of hickory while burn- ing, both in heat, brilliancy, and smell.

Point, the State of Tennessee, on the 1st of August, to meet the other commissioners, Generals Davis, and Wilkinson, and intended setting off for that purpose on the 22d, three days after I left him.
Bowles's vessel, which arrived from Providence in April, was, before it had finished discharging its cargo, compelled to cut cable and clear itself. He still continues to give the Indians assurances, or rather to make them promise that his other vessel will shortly arrive. He and his associates are in a state of starvation, and will keep on the Spanish side of the line.

About the 1st of June, a British ship of war failed over the bar of Pensacola Bay, took along with her a fire, fired at the fort at the Barrancas, and failed off unopposed with its prize; the destruction of the Spaniards in the town of Pensacola on this occasion was great; some fled to the fort, whilst others were preparing to take to the woods.

The Indian reports at Coweta tell that the firing of cannon had been heard towards St. Marks and St. Augustine, which gave hopes to some of them that Bowles's vessels had arrived; but the large majority of the nation are of opinion, that they had better mind their farms and hunting, and leave the white people to fight their own battles. They continue to make settlements nearer the State of Georgia; this year they are making corn at several places on the Flint-river, which several years ago, through dread of the white people, they had deserted, and which in consequence of the fertility of the soil and the good understanding that has subsisted between them for a few years past, they have been induced to settle.

The trial of Alexander Kaminisky, was yesterday brought on in the criminal court in this city, for forging and uttering notes of hand to the number of twenty eight, amounting in the whole to $8,300 dollars. The attorney general had filed against him eight and twenty indictments, to each of which the prisoner plead guilty to the court. And this morning, Klein Schmidt, a clerk and accomplice of Kaminisky, was also arraigned at the bar of the court upon similar indictments, to all of which he likewise plead guilty, and submitted to the court. The Judge then sentenced the offenders to 14 years hard labour upon the roads—sentence which it is to be hoped will annul the practice of counterfeiting and forging, which has already risen to an alarming height in this country.

The Russian remonstrance against the measures of Consul Bonaparte forebodes a renewal of hostilities on the continent of Europe. Bonaparte, probably fears that a state of war is necessary for his personal interest and safety, and has therefore pursued measures, which he knew would be certain, independent of any intrigue, or influence on the part of Great Britain, to meet with opposition from the great continental powers, who cannot view with satisfaction the balance of power destroyed, unless in their own favour. The Consul, as a gallant soldier, cannot be supposed to brook the language made use of in this remonstrance; in which he is charged with breach of promise, made to the late Emperor Paul, in five articles—with continuing the system of robbery taken up by the Directory—and threatened, if he does not alter his conduct, and fulfil his engagements, that "there can be no harmony between the two countries." It is probable that this remonstrance is made with the concurrence of the Courts of Vienna and Berlin, and that the peace of the continent will be but a short truce. [See our paper next week.]

INFORMATION TO MARINERS.
ON my passage home, July 18, Fair Isle bore N. by W. distant 4 leagues. July 30, saw something that appeared like a ship, bearing S. by W. 4 leagues, but soon perceived with a glass that it was a Rock, and after drawing nearer to it could see breakers extending to the S. E. about a mile distant from the Rock: the water all round appeared very much coloured. From the time of my leaving Fair Isle, until abreast of the Rock, was 50 hours. My distance per log, and that hour every hour, and with a fair wind, was 399 miles upon a course made good S. 75 E. W. and 73 miles on a course made good S. 67 W. One and a quarter hour before I saw the Rock, had a good observation, which will make its latitude 57, 59. N. and longitude 14. 18. W. by the ship's run. Variation, by an azimuth and amplitude, 32. 50. W. The above information I think may be depended on as being the true situation of Rockall, which is quite different from what it is laid down in all Books or Charts which I have seen. On my passage outwards, I passed near to the place as it is laid down in the Charts, and saw nothing of it.

For the cure of Agues, remittent and intermitting Fevers—Thousands can testify of their being cured by these drops after the bark and every other medicine had proved ineffectual; and but one in a hundred has had occasion to take more than one, and numbers not half a bottle.
These drops are particularly recommended to the inhabitants of low marshy countries, where the worst form of agues generally prevail, which unless early attended to and speedily removed, injure the constitution exceedingly, and bring on dropsies, putrid fevers, and a variety of complaints, of the most dangerous and alarming nature. Many other medicines are daily offered to the public for the cure of this disorder, which upon trial have either been found dangerous or useless. The bark is the usual remedy made use of, but being a very nauseous medicine, and seldom taken in a sufficient quantity, it very often fails, and children and those who have weak stomachs are frequently lost for want of a more easy and pleasant remedy.

Tune—"The Humours of Glen."
SOME lang of sweet Nelly, some lang of fair Nelly, And some call sweet Nelly the cantie of their pain, Some love to be jolly, some love melancholy, And some love to lang of the Humours of Glen. But my only fancy is my pretty Nancy In venting my passion I'll strive to be plain
SOME lang of sweet Nelly, some lang of fair Nelly, And some call sweet Nelly the cantie of their pain, Some love to be jolly, some love melancholy, And some love to lang of the Humours of Glen. But my only fancy is my pretty Nancy In venting my passion I'll strive to be plain
Her beauty delights me, her kindness invites me, Her pleasant behavior is free from all stain, Therefore, my sweet jewel, O do not prove cruel Confess my dear Nancy, and come be my ain. Her carriage is comely, her language is homely, Her dress is quite decent, when taken in the maid. She's blooming in feature, she's handsome in stature, My charming, dear Nancy, O wert thou my ain.

Like Phœbus adorning the fair ruddy morning, Her bright eyes are sparkling her brows are serene; Her yellow locks shining, in beauty combining: My charming sweet Nancy wilt thou be my ain? The whole of her face is with maidenly graces, Array'd like howards, that grow in yon glen, She's well shaped and slender, true-hearted and tender My charming sweet Nancy, O wert thou my ain.

I'll seek thro' the nation for some habitation To shelter my jewel from cold, snow, and rain, With songs to my dearie I'll keep her ay cheery My charming sweet Nancy, gin thou wert my ain, I'll work at my calling, to furnish thy dwelling With every thing needful my life to sustain, Thou shalt not sit single, but by a clear ingle, I'll marrow thee, Nancy, when thou art my ain.

I'll make true affection the constant direction, Of loving my Nancy while I doth remain; Tho' youth will be waiting, true love shall be lasting, My charming sweet Nancy, gin thou wert my ain. But what if my Nancy should alter her fancy, To favor another be forward and fain, I will not compel her, but plainly I'll tell her, Begone, thou false Nancy, thou'lt ne'er be my ain.

JASON FAIRBANKS.
Who was under sentence of death for Murder and escaped from the prison at Dedham, in the night between the 17th and 18th ult. was apprehended on Sunday morning the 23d inst. at Skeet'sborough, New York, at the southern end of Lake Champlain. Henry Dukeham, who arrested the prisoner in his escape and who accompanied him, was taken at the same time. They were brought to Northampton, and delivered into the custody of General Mattson, Sheriff of the county of Hampshire, who immediately conducted them to this town; where they arrived on Friday last, about 2 o'clock, and were safely lodged in gaol. The persons who successfully pursued Fairbanks were capt. H. Titcomb, of Dover, Mr. S. Wheelock of Medfield, and Mr. M. P. Holt, of Hadley. The latter gentleman having the best horse was with the fugitives some time before the others. He was unknown to them. He asked if any boat was about sailing for St. Johns (Canada) and was informed by Dukeham, that he had engaged one to go thither, and that she would depart as soon as they had taken breakfast, which was nearly ready; and offered a passage. Mr. H. observed, that he must wait the arrival of a waggon with goods, which would probably be there in about an hour—Dukeham consented to wait. Mr. H. improved an opportunity of stepping to a neighboring house, where he acquainted the master of the character of Fairbanks and his associate, and made arrangements for having the latter seized who was then walking in the road, determined to secure the principal himself. He then returned to the public house where he left Fairbanks, and contriving to get behind him without exciting suspicion, seized at once on both his arms. He then told three persons who were present, that the man he had taken was a murderer who had escaped from justice; and he desired the landlord to give him a rope—but neither landlord nor guests afforded the least aid; and Mr. Holt remained holding Fairbanks in the manner he first took him, nearly ten minutes, and until some of his party arrived—Dukeham had in the mean time, been well secured. Neither of the fugitives were armed. On the way from Skeet'sborough to Granville, they met about 14 of the gentlemen of the latter place, advancing to afford assistance, if any had been necessary. Fairbanks was astonished to find himself pursued so far—he had conceived himself tolerably secure after he had got out of the State to which he belonged; and had been but little on his guard. He discovered no anxiety about his situation—and even rallied Mr. H. for being armed;—who remarks, that "he appeared as little sensible of his approaching fate as a tree that is marked to be cut down." The Malefactors had considerable money when they were taken.

MAYOR ANDRE'S TREE.
The memorable Tulip Tree, at Greensburg or Tarrystown, under which Major Andre was taken, was on the 3d ult. struck with lightning. It was rent almost exactly in two, from the top to the bottom. Near the root it was hollow, at which part it took fire and blazed up for about 12 or 15 feet through the fissure, for a few minutes, when the eastern half fell. The remainder extending over the road, stood in so menacing an attitude as to render it necessary to cut it down. This remarkable tree measured 26 feet in circumference at the base, was 111 feet high, and its branches extended 106 feet diameter.

It has often awakened the sympathy of the feeling traveller, by recalling the memory of a gallant but unfortunate enemy. As Americans, we could not but rejoice at the event, which while it blasted his flattering prospects, it consigned him to an ignominious death, still rescued our country from destruction.

Female Wigs, according to Mercier, in his new Picture of Paris , originated in the French Revolution:—Toothless women, says he, purchase at any price the hair of the young fair haired girls that are guillotined. This is a branch of commerce, and a kind of devotion quite novel. This practice was allowed, the Democrats calmly observing, "that the Aristocrats will serve at least for something,—their hair will hide the bald heads of a few old women."

The Parisian belles continue to reject altogether the vulgar convenience of a pocket. They stick their fan in their belt, and lodge in their bosoms a slight purse of morocco leather, in which are a few spare guineas. As to the ignoble handkerchief, it is in the pocket of some Courtier, to whom they address themselves, in case of need.

The following ludicrous circumstance took place on Sunday se'nnight in the parish church of W****de****h, in the hundred of Wirral, county of Chester, and may be depended upon as a fact, the clerk of which place is also "a republican and a sinner."—During the time the parson was reading that part of the service from the Communication Table, beginning "Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy," a boy with a large jug, and a bunch of keys, marched very deliberately into the body of the church, and according the disciple of Sternhold and Hopkins, said, "Joseph, Joseph, there's a man wants a quart a ale, and here's the money for't!" when poor Joseph, forgetting the sacredness of the place, instead of complying with his request, very meekly and deliberately stretched forth his arm from the reading desk, and knocked the boy down, jug and all; which had such an effect on the ribbly muscles of the Congregation, as to produce a general burst of laughter, to the mortification of the parson, who was unable to account for their want of decency and decorum, till he saw the poor object of the clerk's resentment gather himself together; when the lad, casting a piteous look at the remains of the jug, then at Joseph, and then at the parson, made a precipitate retreat.

The Managers can assure the public that the money already raised (and they believe more) has been expended on the Canal; that the proprietor is now proceeding in the business with his usual ardor; and that nothing but the want of cash will prevent his completing the works, in the course of the present season. They therefore cannot help flattering themselves that, when gentlemen of property consider the chance to a profitable speculation which the above GENERAL SCHEME offers them, and contemplate the great advantages which must accrue to the public and particularly to this town and vicinity from the completion of the work on Amoskeag Falls, they will come forward and give it that spirited and efficient patronage, to which alone the managers have overlooked for success in their undertakings.
