FROM A PARIS PAPER
of August 5.
New addresses have been published from the army of Italy, which they with what dreadful success the minds of all the troops have been tampered with, against the Legislative Body. It appears clearly to day, in the following address from the division of General Joubert:
"Royalism raises his audacious head, and multiplies murders in all the Departments."
"Priesthood fascinates the eyes, heats the heads, sharpens the poniards. The execution of the plan combined for the re-establishment of the Throne is openly followed in the legislature. One Liberticide Law is scarcely passed when another is proposed: The Directory who are entrusted with the care of our constitution, accepted by our armies, and acknowledged by all Frenchmen are accused without decency. Charges are preferred against the citizen who has rendered the most signal services, and who at this moment, is entrusted with the greatest interests, in order to crown the labours of all the armies by a glorious peace, which would consolidate the Republic, and annihilate all factions and all parties except the friends of the Government."
"Add to this rapid sketch, the return of the emigrants en masse, on which the members of the Council congratulate themselves in their speeches; the cries of death; the dreadful howlings of the Journalists of Louis XVIII. and you will have the mournful picture of the rising Counter-revolution."
"What! Comrades, shall we have shed so much blood for the prosperity and glory of our country, and yet see it replunged again into the disorders of anarchy—into the fury of civil wars. Shall the odious Capet, who for six years has carried his disgrace from State to State, constantly driven before our Republican Phalanxes, reduce us under the yoke? If this Idea be disgusting to every citizen who has but once in his life been stimulated by the love of his country how much more so must it be to the old Soldiers of the republic."
"Volunteers of the army of the interior the same men whom you so often repulsed on the banks of the Rhine—whom you so completely humbled at Quiberon, are now at Paris, and in the Departments; they form an army in presence of our own; firm to your principles obey the voice of the Directory; be faithful to your glory; Make a rampart of your bodies around the Constitution, which you have sworn to maintain: and rely upon victory, in the full conviction that she never will forsake the republican colours."
In the address from General Serrurier's division the following passage is remarkable.
"Speak, citizen Directors, speak, and instantly the miscreants who pollute the soil of the Republic shall cease to exist. To annihilate them, it will doubtless be sufficient to detach some of our brave brethren in the armies of the Rhine and Moselle, and of the Sambre and Meuse; it is our desire to partake with them the honor of purging France of her most cruel enemies."
PORTSMOUTH, July 20.
EXTRACT OF A LETTER,
Lisbon, June 30.
We have within the last three weeks strained every nerve to increase our army, and to put it on a respectable footing; every able bodied man that is not properly protected, is pressed into the service, no servants except those belonging to Fideis can with any safety appear in the streets; the officers are so vigilant that whenever they are informed of a man who will answer their purpose, they lurk about the house, and seldom quit the neighbourhood till they have secured him. —It is but a few days since that the press-gang, with drawn swords, pursued the servant of a widow lady into his mistress's house a circumstance which occasioned much conversation here, for the house of a widow is, by the laws and customs of this country considered as a sanctuary, and nothing but the peculiar exigency of the times can justify this and a similar intrusion which had previously happened, and
which would at any other period be most rigorously punished.—I myself met yesterday in the Chiado, one of the most public streets, above twenty poor wretches tied together, that had been dragged from their homes, and forced into the army. By these means we have certainly collected a considerable number of men, but I am apprehensive it will be some time before they can be made soldiers of.
In the beginning of this month all the regiments which had not marched to the frontiers received their routes, and were ordered to be at their places of destination by the 9th, this has a warlike appearance; what passes between our court and that of Madrid is kept a profound secret; but as every thing remains tranquil, we hope the dispute will be settled without bloodshed.
You have no doubt, heard that the Raven, brig, capt. James had taken a very valuable Spanish prize; when brought in, she was estimated at 40,000. and the captors were highly pleased; the Spaniards immediately sent an agent to purchase her, who very incautiously offered 250,000. provided the masts were not moved; had he offered 400 or 50,000. the captors would have parted with her, but seeming very solicitous to get her on such immense terms, they refused to sell, and have rejected his second bidding of three hundred thousand pounds. It is suspected that a great quantity of treasure is concealed at the bottom of the masts, as that already discovered rather justifies the first valuation.
BASLE, July 25.
We are assured that general Buonaparte has testified his discontent at the refusal of the Helvetic Body relative to the passage demanded through the Valais. It is even said, but that wants confirmation, that he has intimated a resolution to force this passage, if Switzerland shall not consent to grant it. We know not why this General is so much interested about this passage, which would not be very useful to his army, and why he teases the Swiss so much to obtain it; for we can hardly believe, as the friends of Mr. Wickham would insinuate, that the General is desirous of a pretence to intermeddle in the affairs of Switzerland, and to revolutionize some Cantons, who are not very friendly to popular tumults. However that may be, the Swiss confide in the promise of the Directory, and in the wisdom of Barthélemy, who so well possesses the rare talent of conciliating instead of exasperating.
Notice is hereby given, that I shall attend with commissioners appointed by the county court of Bourbon, under an act entitled an act to ascertain the boundary of land, and for other purposes, on the 23d day of November next, at my own house on Townsend's creek, in the said county of Bourbon, then and there to prove and perpetuate the special calls of an entry in my own name of 1000 acres on preemption warrant, and to do such other things respecting the said entry and survey as may be thought proper and agreeable to law.

LEXINGTON:
Saturday, October 21, 1797.
FROM THE NORTH-CAROLINA GAZETTE.
To the Citizens & Inhabitants of North-Carolina.
Information has lately been given to the Executive of the United States, that in some of the frontier parts of this State, enlistments of men and other military preparations are carrying on, for the purpose as it is said, of establishing a settlement somewhere in the Indian country, on the Tennessee. These transactions are said to be in consequence of a large purchase of lands from the Indians, by some individual or company.
As these measures are not only highly unlawful, but have a tendency to involve the United States in war; it has been deemed advisable, in order to remind the citizens of their duty, and apprise them of their danger, in this respect, to publish for their notice, the annexed abstract of those provisions contained in the act of congress, "To regulate trade and intercourse with the Indian tribes, and to preserve peace on the frontiers;" which relate more immediately to this subject.
It is hoped that this caution will not be disregarded, as the utmost vigilance will be employed on the part of the United States, to apprehend and bring to punishment, those who have wantonly engaged in this unlawful enterprize.
BENJ. WOODS.
District attorney for the N. Carolina District.
Newbern, September 1st, 1797.
An abstract of certain provisions and regulations contained in an act of congress passed the 19th of May, 1796, entitled an "An act to regulate trade and intercourse with the Indian tribes, and to preserve peace on the frontiers;" viz.
No purchases or grants of land from any Indian, or tribe of Indians shall be valid unless the same be made by treaty or convention, in pursuance of the constitution. And any person purchasing lands from the Indians without authority from the United States, shall be fined not exceeding one thousand dollars, and imprisoned not exceeding six months. Sec. 12.
If any person shall make a settlement on any lands granted or secured by treaty, belonging to any Indian tribe, or survey, or attempt to survey such lands, he shall forfeit all his right and title to the same, of whatever nature it may be, and shall be fined not exceeding one thousand dollars, and imprisoned not exceeding twelve months: and the president of the United States may employ military force to remove him. Sec. 5.
Any person going into an Indian town, settlement, or territory, and murdering any Indian in amity with the United States, shall on conviction suffer death. Sec. 6.
If any person shall go into the Indian territory and there commit robbery, larceny, trespass, or any other crime against the person or property of any friendly Indian, which would be punishable if committed within the jurisdiction of any state against a citizen of the United States, or shall be found on any Indian land with a hostile intention, he shall be fined not exceeding one hundred dollars, and imprisoned not exceeding six months, and shall also when property is taken or destroyed, pay to the Indian to whom it belonged, twice the just value of it. Sec. 4.
If any person crosses over the Indian boundary line, to hunt in the Indian territory, or drive cattle to range thereon, he shall be fined not exceeding one hundred dollars, and imprisoned not exceeding six months. Sec. 2.
Any person going into the Indian territory, south of the river Ohio, without a passport from the governor of some one of the United States, or an officer of troops of the United States, or such other person as the president shall appoint, shall be fined not exceeding fifty dollars, and imprisoned not exceeding three months. Sec. 3.
No person shall be permitted to reside as a trader among the Indians, without a license from the president
of the United States, or such other person as he shall appoint, and if any person shall attempt to reside as a trader among them without license, he shall forfeit all his merchandise offered to the Indians for sale, in his possession, and shall be liable to be fined not exceeding one hundred dollars, and imprisoned not exceeding thirty days. Sec. 8 & 9.
Trade and intercourse with Indians living on lands surrounded by settlements of the citizens of the United States, and being within the ordinary jurisdiction of any of the individual states; and the unmolested use of a road from Washington district to Mero district, and navigation of the Tennessee river, as reserved and secured by treaty, are excepted out of the aforesaid act. Sec. 19.
If any person be found in the Indian country, over and beyond the boundary line, in violation of the provisions of the said act, it shall be lawful for the military force of the United States to apprehend and convey him by the nearest convenient and safe route, to the civil authority, in some one of the next adjoining states, to be proceeded against in due course of law. Sec. 16.
Any person who shall be charged with a violation of the said provisions or regulations, and be found within any of the United States, may be apprehended and brought to trial in the same manner as if the offence had been committed within such state. And it shall be the duty of the military force of the United States, when called on by the civil magistrate, or any other person duly authorized, and having a lawful warrant, to aid and assist in arresting and committing the offender. Sec. 17.
The circuit courts and other courts of the United States, of similar jurisdiction, in criminal cases in each district, where the offender shall be apprehended or brought to trial, shall have authority to hear and determine all crimes and offences against the said act. And in all cases where the punishment shall not be death, the district courts of the United States shall have the same power within their respective districts. Sec. 15.

VALUABLE MILITARY AND OTHER LANDS
FOR SALE.
THE subscriber means to remain in the state of Kentucky until December next, for the purpose of offering for sale the following tracts of LAND, to wit:
1000 Acres of First Rate LAND, North-West of the Ohio, between the Little Miami and Sciota rivers, on Paint creek, patented to Peregrine Fitzhugh, Esquire,
1333 Acres North-West of the Ohio, on the waters of Lee's creek, a branch of Paint creek, near the Rattle-snake fork, patented to P. Fitzhugh, Esquire.
1426 Acres North-West of the Ohio, on the waters of the Rocky fork of Paint creek, patented also to P. Fitzhugh, Esquire, for his services as an officer in the American war. These lands are not far distant from Chillicothe town, and must be an object well worth the emigrants attention, from its situation, it being well known that the lands generally on Paint creek are equal if not superior to any in that territory.
The new road leading from the Little Miami to Chillicothe runs within two or three mile of these lands, where the settlement is now extending very fast up the falls of paint.
6000 Acres surveyed for Warner Lewis, a military claim, on the Little Miami, which I am told is equal to any in that country.
Also, 10,000 Acres of Land, in this state, located at a very early date, near the three forks of the Kentucky river, in Clarke county.
An indisputable title will be given to the above lands, and a bargain to any person that would take the whole together; otherwise I would accommodate a purchaser with lots of 3 or 400 acres, for ready money only. The terms of sale will be made known by application to Hugh M'Ilvain, Esquire, in Lexington; Mr. Devall Payne, seven miles from Washington, or on personal application to me, who may be generally heard of by enquiry at Mr. Burgess's tavern.

Thomas Quirk, on the 9th day of January 1783, entered 4000 acres of land on a treasury warrant in Jefferson county (now Shelby county) on the Ohio river, beginning just below the place where the troops under Gen. Clark encamped, the first night after passing the eighteen mile island, when going on the expedition in the year 1783, thence running up the river, and back, for quantity—which tract of land was surveyed on the 28th day of January 1793, and has since become my property: and as the proof respecting the encampment called for in said entry, depends on living evidence, in order to perpetuate which, I have obtained an order from the county court of Shelby. All concerned are therefore desired to take notice that on the 27th day of this inst. I shall in person, or by my agent, attend on the Ohio river, at the place called for as the beginning of said entry—when and where I shall cause the depositions of sundry witnesses to be taken, in order to perpetuate the place of said encampment; and do such other acts to perpetuate the same, as may be judged proper and as the law in such cases made, will authorize.

Samuel Thomaston.
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 un-univered, 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 compliance, would resent it as I do.

THE FLIRTATION. YE dear pretty ladies, Who now in your gay days, So merrily take your diversion, Sure there is no sporting Compar'd unto courting, And having a little flirtation. And having &c.
What tho' now you call, An assembly or ball, A pleasant and sweet recreation; How soon would you treat it, As dull and insipid, Had you not a little flirtation. Had you &c.
In church or in street, Or wherever you meet, The object of your inclination; Oh! it is not pleasure, Beyond any measure, To have a dear little flirtation. To have &c.
There's you, and there's you, And there's you madam too, And there's you in your fly situation, Tho' you all look so shy, Yet you cannot deny, That you're fond of a little flirtation. That you're &c.
ANECDOTE.
A minister in one of the Southern states, who spent much of his time at the card table, having sat up very late one Saturday night at his favorite amusement, was somewhat drowsy in the pulpit the next day; and while the congregation was singing, he paid his devotions to Morpheus—In the mean time the psalm was ended, and the audience waiting for the after exercise, one of the deacons perceiving him to be asleep, jog'd him in order to awaken him; whereupon he started up, crying out— Hearts is trumps, by God. But with confusion perceiving his mistake, he artfully changed into I say, let your hearts triumph in God.
