LONDON, November 10.
The dispatches received by government from the British army, confirm our account of the attack made by the French on the British out posts on the 27th, 28th, 29th and 30th ult. These attacks, however, do not appear to have been productive of any important consequences. The French continue before Nimeguen and Maestricht. A sortie, attended with some success, had been made from the latter place. It was reported on Saturday and yesterday, that the duke of York had received a reinforcement of 25,000 men. If this be true, it is strange that the Gazette makes no mention of it.
The duke of Brunswick is arrived at Nimeguen, to take upon him the command of the British army.
The most important information that we have received this morning, relates to the negotiations for peace between several of the allied powers and the French Republic.
The king of Prussia, we have strong reasons for believing, has actually concluded a peace with France. It was signed at Neutcha-tel on the 12th of last month.
Our letters from Amsterdam assure us, that the king of Spain has also made peace, and that the treaty was signed at Paris on the 18th ult. There is also at Paris an Ambassador, who is negotiating a peace between the Germanic empire and the French Republic.
The emperor of Germany has not yet made any overtures for a termination of hostilities, but our letters from Vienna assure us that his imperial majesty has expressed a wish for the establishment of peace.
With sentiments of deep regret we communicate to the public the following intelligence which has been received by a merchant at Amsterdam. That the Russians have again been successful against the Polish Patriots; that they have defeated prince Poniatowski, and taken Warsaw by storm. Happy shall we be to be able to contradict this most affecting intelligence.
Letters from Hamburg mention that the gallant Koscielski survived his wounds but a short time; that after his death his head was severed from his body, placed on a pike, and carried through the ranks of the Russian army.
The states of Holland and West Frisland have rejected by a great majority, the plan of a general inundation.
A fresh plot has been discovered at Rome against the life of his holiness the Pope; 500 persons are concerned in it, and 58 of them are in custody.
In our paper of Saturday, we stated, that a sortie was to have been made by the garrison of Nimeguen in the night between the 4th and 5th. We are now enabled to inform the public, that the sortie (principally by the 12th regiment) was made in the night of the 4th, and that it was successful, the greater part of the enemy's works before Nimeguen having been destroyed. [Sun.]
We have several letters from different correspondents in the army, which confirm the advantage gained over the enemy by the garrison of Maestricht in a fortunate sortie which they made a few days ago. Some of our letters state the loss of the French at 2000 killed, others at 3000, and some as high as 4000 men. Certain it is, it was very considerable; the works of the enemy were destroyed, and their cannon spiked. The Austrians lost from 900 to 1000 men in this glorious and fortunate enterprise, which may probably be the means of the siege of Maestricht being raised. [Sun.]
NEW-YORK, January 23.
Perhaps no country, whose inhabitants are really so enlightened, is so duped by its ministers as England. At the beginning of the silly projection against France, Great Britain subsidized the Sardinian King, with the sum of 300,000 sterling annually, to enable him to maintain troops to protect his own dominions—that is in fact to enlist him into the confederacy, and if he could not do much good for his purchasers, the money would at least prevent his doing mischief. In short it was a decent ministerial bribe!
Last year the King of Prussia's finances were exhausted, and he called for a bribe. A bribe was offered by Great Britain and Holland; and 60,000 Prussians were hired to kill Frenchmen at the expence of poor Englishmen; but the king takes the money and withdraws the troops!
Another project, more silly if possible, was to take into pay 30,000 emigrant Frenchmen to fight against their own country. This scheme had the sanction of parliament. Officers for a body of 30,000 troops are appointed—but men are wanting. This scheme, however answers one good purpose—it feeds a great number of refugee nobles and gentlemen, who driven from their own estates have no other means of subsistence.
The last project of subsidizing the Emperor seems to have failed. The reason of this failure is not known. Perhaps John Bull would not come up to his imperial demands, which must be very pressing—perhaps the emperor could not spare the requisite number of men—yet in this case, he might have followed the example of his royal ally, the king of Prussia; he might have taken the money, and not have furnished the men.
These mad projects are so degrading to princes; that the most intemperate royalist would doubt the right of kings to be masters of nations; for nature never intended the greatest fools to manage government in wisdom. A writer in the beginning of the present century resolved never to believe in the divine right of kings, till he saw subjects born with bunches on their backs, like camels, and kings with combs on their heads, like cocks, by which sign he should be enabled to collect that the former were designed to labour and suffer; and the latter to strut and crow.
What occasions the high price of our home produce and of labor? This question admits of several answers.
First, the augmentation of circulating medium since the establishment of a great number of banks. Perhaps the various banks circulate fifteen millions of dollars; and add to the medium, a clear increase of five millions.
Second, the stock of the funded debt may have some effect, as an indirect augmentation of circulation.
Third, The principle cause is the war in Europe, which has created an immense demand for many of our articles of export. France alone supports an army, which, with the necessary attendants, amounts to fifteen hundred thousand men—the expence of subsisting these is supposed equal to the support of six millions, who are at home and in their ordinary occupations. See Lindet's report on the interior state of France.
This immense consumption has exhausted France of her manufactures, and every thing but bare necessaries. Salted provisions for her fleets are drawn from America—flour has been in demand—and leather and cloth are purchased in great quantities in America for the French armies. The immense demand for these articles in France has been the principal
cause of the high price of them in America.
In proportion as the produce of land rises in value, labor and the price of land rise also. The demand for produce creates a demand for labour to cultivate the earth, and this demand draws laborers from mechanical occupations—a want of mechanics is the consequence, and this want raises the price of their labor. Thus the rise and fall of lands and labor regulates the prices of all other articles, and these depend on foreign markets.
Will the prices of all articles, of rent and labor, fall, or will they not? is a question much agitated by our farmers and speculating gentry. The answer is, if peace should take place in Europe, of which there is some prospect, the price of labor and of produce of all kinds will doubtless fall.
Lexington, March 21.
Last week two men who went on shore from a boat coming down the Ohio river, to shoot turkeys, were fired on by the Indians and both wounded; their wounds being slight, they made their escape to the boat and thereby got off.
Accounts from the lower counties state, that great numbers of Indians have crossed the Ohio between the Falls and the mouth of Green river.
COMMUNICATION.
A letter from a gentleman in London, dated October 25, says, "Although it be very rare indeed, that the honor of knighthood is conferred upon two in the same family, yet Mr. Jay has rendered himself so agreeable to the British ministers that they would wish to confer that honor upon him, as well as upon his elder brother, if the Congress would consent to it. Your president would no doubt, concur in the measure, if the other two branches were to offer an act for that indulgence. Mr. Jay has gone in the business he was sent upon as far as statu quo, and there he stands as fast and as firm as the Tarpean rock at Rome. Several ships have lately departed from England, but not a shilling of restitution money, for 700 sail of vessels, and their cargoes, of which our merchants were piratically robbed the last year. When Mr. Jay sailed from the wharf in May last, his liping friends were loud in their prophecies, how effectually he would obtain justice for us, immediately after his arrival at that place; but, what has he done, after six months dalliance? All that we have heard of his embassy, is, that Grenville, Secretary of State, has assured him, that orders shall be given, for the courts below to reconsider the condemnation of our vessels, and report if there be any just cause, or not, for the complaints brought over by the American envoy! Is not this hum-bugging our envoy with a witness? No matter, he has kissed the queen's hand, and dined with Pitt—That's sufficient."
THE WORLD DONE OVER.
WHY should we our time mis-bestow on the Tailor, Or even the Lady done o'er, or the Jailor; A more serious matter, I now will discover, The World—the whole World—will be shortly done over.
Mark how the mean wretch oft his mean patron flatters. But in his adversity tears him to tatters; And thus since sincerity turns a mere rover, The World, we may think, will be shortly done over.
The lover excels the proud patron in lies, Sir, The Sun is eclips'd by his mistress' eyes, Sir,
Thus since we can scarcely discern a just lover, The world, pretty misles will soon be done over.
The fall of the Press—but I scarcely dare to hint it: For should I say much, there's no printer dare print it; Poor freedom's so dull, we shall never recover, Thus the Press and the World will be shortly done over.
Tho' faction may from public virtue detract, Sir, I wish to depend on plain matter of fact, Sir; But honor this sentiment dares to discover— May the Press and the World be together done over.
