GLASGOW, August 8.
Paris papers to the 3d inst. have been received since our last. Very little is said in them upon the subject of the negotiation. A rumour however prevailed at Paris, that the conference at Lille had been suspended till the different plenipotentiaries receive instructions as to some questions of a difficult nature. The directory it is surmised have got the army to deliberate upon the jarrings which have taken place in Paris between them and the two councils. Massena's division has already addressed the directory in very strong terms, and threaten to march to Paris to put their enemies to death; "Let them tremble!" say they, "Yes let these conspirators tremble! The swords which have exterminated the armies of kings, are still in the hands of the conquerors of the Rhine, of the Sambre and Meuse, and of Italy."
The bombardment of Cadiz is still carried on. The Spanish merchants have offered rewards to such seamen as act gallantly. General Massaredo has offered 1000 piasters to those who shall sink or take a British Chaloupe. Tartanes have been armed with 36 pounders and furnaces for red hot balls. The Spaniards are preparing for sea.
DUBLIN, July 16.
The rapidity with which the recent mutiny at Bandon was systematised, the number of the conspirators which we lament to learn, greatly exceeds the utmost extent of public belief and the unheard of atrocities that were to have marked the progress of revolt, puzzle conjecture as to its yet undivined origin, while the mind is horrified at the extent of depravity. A general conflagration of the forage, &c. which would necessarily have occupied the attention of the officers, and of other troops, was to have been the signal for the massacre of the entire 30th regiment and the light companies of the Sligo, Fermanagh and Londonderry militia, who, it appears could not be reduced. The conspirators, aided by part of the inhabitants of Bandon, were to have plundered the town and the house of lord Bandon, into which they were to have been admitted by a servant; & after the murder of all persons deemed hostile to their cause, to have marched with the park of artillery, &c. to Bantry, whose forts they believed would receive them, or which they were otherwise to have forced, and under the standard of revolt to have waited the junction of the disaffected, and the expected aid of France.
LONDON, July 19.
Some important questions have recently been discussed in the Legislative Councils of France which seem to indicate the approach of some important crisis in the internal Government of that Country. The Milliard (or Thousand Millions of Livres, long since voted to the soldiers,) has been the subject of a brief discussion in the council of Five Hundred, who have referred it to the consideration of a select committee.—Another question still more important has been agitated with great warmth and animosity in the same council—we mean the question relating to the Nonjuring clergy. It was first moved, that such of them as were imprisoned (amounting according to Lally Tollendal's account, to twenty thousand) should be released.—This motion was carried. It was next proposed, that such of them as had suffered deportation should not be considered as emigrants.—This proposition was also adopted. The last motion was, that the Nonjuring clergy should not be compelled to make a declaration of submission to the new constitution.—This also was carried at that time. But on the succeeding day, the question was revived, and on the proceeding to the appel nominal , or division, it was found that there were 204 for the question, and 210 against it:—the tumult, however, was so great, that the President was under the necessity of immediately dissolving the council. This circumstance, which may be regarded as a trial of strength between the contending parties, will in all probability lead to important consequences.
Aug. 1.
The "Quotidienne" makes the following remarks on the subject of the present situation of gen. Buonaparte:
"Can it be supposed, that the impetuous Buonaparte will ever follow the example of Pichegru; return to Paris as an humble subject of the directory, and bury his laurels in a tribune; the situation of republican generals has been at all times extremely critical. If they are defeated, they are punished for their misfortunes; and if they prove victorious, they are envied for their successes. If virtuous Rome has a Camillus and a Cincinnatus, corrupted Rome begot a Cæsar and an Octavius. For a man surrounded with glory and power, it is a difficult task to resume the humble station of an obscure citizen; and if the will of the people does not give them a chief, the sword and the bayonet will force upon them a master."
August 8.
Yesterday evening a little before seven o'clock, lord Grenville Levison, accompanied by mr. Major, one of his majesty's messengers, landed at Dover from Calais, and immediately proceeded for town, where he arrived early this morning. His lordship is supposed to have brought over some very important dispatches from lord Malmesbury.
We are enabled to state, upon the best authority that the Dutch fleet have never quitted the Texel, nor admiral Duncan his station. The captain of the Circe, who brought the account was deceived by making his observations to the north of the Texel, when the English fleet is stationed to the south of that river.
Yesterday at one o'clock, we received by express, Paris journals to the 5th instant inclusive. We immediately stopped the press to communicate the substance of their contents, which our readers will find fully detailed in our paper of this day.
The contents of these papers, which are extremely important, justify all the reflections which we have lately had occasion to make on the internal state of France, and the views of the different parties in that distracted country.
It appears from the debates of the Councils that the statement given by the Directory of the march of the troops towards the metropolis was totally false. Instead of nine thousand men, said to be detached from the army of the Sambre and Meuse, the detachment amounted to between twenty six and twenty seven thousand! Nor was this force intended, as the directory affirmed, for any naval expedition; but it was selected as we suppose for the express purpose of overthrowing if not of dissolving the legislative body.—The soldiers indeed, whose minds had been poisoned by emissaries from Paris, and by the Jacobin journals, which were the only papers they were permitted to read, openly proclaimed the object of their march, and uttered the grossest calumnies against the two councils. And notwithstanding the order received from the minister of war to return to the station which they had left, they continued their march to Paris, in obedience to the commands of their general Hoche, who has by this act openly hoisted the standard of rebellion.
Our readers will recollect that we stated, some time since, that Hoche and his army, known to be determined Jacobins, were the instruments on whom the Directory relied for perpetuating their own power, and for carrying into effect their own unconstitutional designs.
The Directory also appear to have effectually secured the protection of the army of Italy. Addresses have been received from two more divisions of that army, which breathe the rankest spirit of Jacobinism;—vow implicit obedience, not to the constitution, but to the Directory; and devote their enemies to instant destruction. These addresses, though the very act of deliberation by which they were proceeded was a direct violation of a constitutional provision, have been published by the directory, who have in consequence been called on by the Council of Five hundred to account for their conduct.
Meanwhile a formidable force, supposed to amount to 40,000 men, has arrived at Paris, in small parties; so that there can be little doubt but that the Directory will set the legislative body at defiance, and effectually triumph over the constitution.
Another message was delivered to the council, on the 2d instant on the subject of the finances which are a-
gain stated to be in a most deplorable situation. It seems indeed that the Directory are either anxious to impute this distress to the inefficient proceedings of the Council, or by a repetition of messages on a subject so important, to divert their attention from those vigorous measures which they evince a disposition to adopt for confining the government within the bounds prescribed by the constitution.
Every circumstance combines to sanction the supposition that some dreadful explosion is on the eve of taking place. A number of Foreigners have crowded to the capital, and the Terrorists from the different departments have joined them. In short that devoted city now wears the very same appearance which it has invariably exhibited previous to every public commotion or massacre since the year 1789.
PITTSBURG, Sept. 30.
That part of the extract of a letter, published in our last, under the Pittsburgh head, which mentions, that "the inhabitants at the Natchez are in open rebellion, and have displayed the French colours," is a mistake.—It is the people of Kaskaskias, which is within the government of the North Western Territory, & where the laws of the United States have been in force for several years.—Particulars we have not yet heard, but have no doubt that some of citizen Adet's spies are among them. It is to be wished, that if any of them should fall into the hands of general Wilkinson, he will grace a pole with their heads instead of a French liberty cap.
Mr. Scull.
The information in your last paper of an insurrection among the inhabitants at Natchez is not correct. It is at Kaskaskias and in the neighbourhood of that place, that the French settlers have been instigated by Spanish and French emissaries to throw off their allegiance to the United States and erect the standard of the French republic. General Wilkinson is on his march with a strong detachment of Federal troops to suppress the insurgents.—These wicked French emissaries are also endeavouring to persuade the Indians into another war with us, and a party of the savages has actually attempted to get possession of fort Recovery, but were defeated with the loss of two or three killed. It gives us great uneasiness to learn that three Frenchmen who passed through this place some weeks ago, have been addressing themselves to Cornplanter's Indians and telling them that they were oppressed by the United States and would never be happy until their old friends the French were in possession of the country again. It is said the Indians listened to these speeches with great attention, and there is reason to fear the vile incendiaries who are now among the western tribes will be too successful in their endeavours to kindle the flames of another bloody war on our frontier.
NOTICE,

ALL persons are forewarned from purchasing negroes, stock, or household furniture, or utensils of any kind from Robert Sutton.

It is only lent to his wife by me, till I shall want it.

Extract of a letter from a gentleman of character at Cahokia to a gentleman at Detroit, dated June 16, 1797.
"An American party to the number, it is said, of 130, have displayed the standard of the French republic—have adopted the name of Sans Culottes, and will acknowledge no other laws than the French laws. The justices already say that they dare not set on the bench.—I believe they have reason to fear."

October 6th, 1797.
The public, I presume, has seen a piece inserted by Benjamin S. Cox and Joseph Fenwick, in the Kentucky Gazette, with the design of injuring me, in the sale of my lands. Their publication (malicious as it is) should pass unanswered, but that I am apprehensive my silence might be construed into a confession of their charges and an acknowledgment of their claim.—Now I do assert that I never sold land to Daniel Broadhead, nor can he legally claim a foot of property under me.—If he could, why do not the persons claiming under him, make it appear? I have been three years constantly in this state, and always desirous that my land disputes might be terminated, as during their continuance I have been exposed to much cruel and unmerited censure. In all this time little, or nothing has been done by my opponents. Messrs. Cox and Fenwick have published that for all the lands advertised by them, a suit has been commenced in the court of Quarter Sessions for Fayette. That I deny. 'Tis true a subpoena issued against me in the Fayette District, in April last,—but 'tis equally true, that the complainants have never yet filed their bill. From those circumstances, the public, I think may form a just estimate of the validity of their title. A claim so important, if it could have been established, would not have been so long neglected; or, at least, after commencing suit, they would have pursued with more keenness if they had imagined they had any chance of success. These lands I shall continue to sell, and I trust I shall be able to remove the doubts of any person who is disposed to buy. Let Messrs. Cox and Fenwick, in future know, that I despise the hypocritical cant of their publication. After accusing me of fraudulent intentions against innocent people—they kindly say they have no intention of injuring me. Let me ask the gentlemen if they would not think such a charge injurious? To them, indeed it might not be so—but most men would feel it sensibly, and in spite of their fawning complaisance, would resent it as I do. B. NETHERLAND.

SACRED TO THE MUSES.
THE HUSKING.
THE days grow short, but tho' the falling Sun To the glad swain, proclaims his day's work done, Night's pleasing shades his various tasks prolong, And yield new subjects to my various song. For now the corn-house fill'd, the harvest home, Th' invited neighbors to the husking come; A frolic scene, where work, and mirth and play, Unite their charms to chase the hours away.
Where the long heap lies center'd in the hall, The lamp suspended from the cheerful wall, Brown corn-fed Nymphs, and strong hard-handed beaux, Alternate rang'd, extend in circling rows, Assume their seats, the solid mass attack; The dry husks ruffle, & the corn-cobs crack; The song, the laugh, alternate notes rebound, And the sweet cider tips in silence round.
The laws of husking every wight can tell, And sure no laws he ever kept so well; For each red ear a gen'ral kiss he gains, With each smut ear he smuts the luckless swains; But when to some sweet maid a prize is cast, Red as her lips and taper as her waist, She walks the round and culls one favorite beau, Who leaps, the luscious tribute to bestow.
Various the sport, as are the wits and brains Of well pleas'd ladies, and contending swains; 'Till the vast mound of corn is swept away, And he that gets the last ear wins the day.
Meanwhile the house-wife urges all her care, The well earn'd feast to hasten and prepare. The sifted meal already waits her hand, The milk is strain'd, the bowls in order stand, The fire flames high, and as a pool (that takes The headlong stream that o'er the mill-dam breaks) Foams, roars and rages with incessant toils, So the vex'd chaldron rages, roars and boils.
First with clean salt she fasons well the food, Then strews the flour, and thickens all the food. Long o'er the simmering fire she lets it stand, To stir it well, deserves a stronger hand; The husband takes his turn, & round and round The ladle flies; at last the toil is crown'd; When to the board the thronging huskers pour, And take their seats as at the corn before.
God keep me from him whom I trust, From him whom I trust not I will keep myself.
