TWO LIKELY NEGRO MEN RUN AWAY FROM THE SUBSCRIBER,
Living in Mecklenburg county, Virginia:—
ONE of them named PETER, went off about five years ago; he is very black, tall and slim, and had many scars on his back, occasioned by whipping for running away before I had him—he could work a little at the shoe, basket, and collar-making business: has very crooked shins, and if alive is now about 35 years old. The other went off the 14th of December last, and took with him my horse, saddle, bridle and great coat—he is of a yellow complexion, middle sized, has a limp in his gait and walks with his toes turned inward—he has been my miller for several years, is very sensible and poliaverling, and can read tolerably well—he was born near Williamsburg, and it is expected, he will make his way thither, or further to the northward, or, probably, over the mountains to the westward—his name is DAVY, but it is expected he will change it to BOB, or to MICAJAH FENDLY, having as some suppose, stolen said Fendly's freedom pass, which is recorded in Mecklenburg county court.
The horse he took is a likely bay, about four feet eleven inches high, about nine years old, has the mark of some galls on his shoulders, steps very stately, holds his head high, especially when out of the bridle, his mane hangs on the wrong side. The saddle is country made and much worn. An old half-curb bridle. The great coat of drab colour, good cloth, with an old fashioned cape and a rent on the right side. He had on a good black velvet waistcoat and breeches, and other clothes of good Virginia cloth.
Whoever secures the above described men and goods or either of them, so that I get them again, shall receive a liberal reward.
Henry Speed. Mecklenburg county, Virginia, 15th January 1795.
P. S. If either of the above Negroes should be taken up and delivered to me near Danville, I will pay the reward.

John M'Connell, jun. June 20, 1795.

BALTIMORE, May 23.
The Glasgow Courier of the 24th of March, contains a retrospect, which, as it touches on the situation of the political hemisphere of Europe, cannot be uninteresting to our readers. The writer proceeds thus:—The last week has been rather barren of political events, nor have those which it has produced compensated us, by their importance, for the paucity of their number.
The present situation of Ireland, as nearest our hearts, and as perhaps involving eventually, the best and dearest interest of this country, seems to demand our earliest notice. Every idea of conciliation between earl Fitzwilliam and our ministry, having been abandoned, lord Camden is now about to assume the reins of government in that kingdom. One of the conditions upon which his lordship has been appointed to this arduous situation is, it is said, that no concession shall be made to the Catholics, at least no such concession, as, by preponderating the Protestant ascendancy in Parliament, may hazard the subsistence of the Protestant religion, and the resumption of those possessions which have been peaceably held by the Protestants for ages past; a condition which, in the temper and innovating spirit of the times, the advocates for unqualified toleration of religious opinions, may, no doubt, condemn as impotent and unavailing, but which every genuine friend to the order and tranquillity of his country, must, at a juncture so critical, applaud and approve.
By sea, a system of incessant attack, somewhat resembling in its effects, that which the French adopted and prosecuted with so much success against us by land, has, it would appear, been lately embraced by our ministry. Besides the vessels recently captured by the squadron under Sir J. B. Warren, and the two ships by Mr. Burlton, of the Lively, we have now to record the capture and destruction, by Sir Edward Pellew, of twenty sail, out of a fleet of fifty merchantmen, bound from Brest to Bourdeaux, some of which were richly laden with stores constituting in the aggregate, a loss to the enemy of about forty sail in a few weeks.
From America we have learnt, that the commercial arrangements lately entered into between us and Mr. Jay in behalf of the United States, has afforded universal satisfaction; and that, although only the general outlines of the treaty were made known, it was spoken of as highly beneficial to the American trade.
Misrule and rapine, in the seemingly placid but deceitful guise of fraternization and requisition, now lord it over the once free and independent state of Holland—Blind and luckless Batavians! Should not the knell of some evening curfew rouse you to a speedy vindication of your wrongs, and to the exercise of a just vengeance on your oppressors, even we may live to see old Ocean assert his inalienable and imprescriptible rights, and re-assume his empire over those domains which your ancestors so boldly, yet so unjustly wrested from him.
Lexington July 4.
The following is a list of the countries conquered by the French from the different sovereign princes of Europe since the commencement of the present war. The ten provinces of Brabant, Antwerp, Mechlin, Limburg, Luxemburg, Namur, Hinhault, Artois, Cambresis, and Flanders, forming the Austrian Netherlands and formerly subject to the Emperor of Germany.
The seven United Provinces of
Holland, Zealand, Friesland, Groningen, Overijssel, Guelderland, & Utrecht, forming the Dutch nation, and formerly subject to the Stadholder.
The principality of Liege, with the cities of Liege and Spa, formerly subject to the Prince Bishop, as sovereign of that country.
The Bishoprick of Spire with its chief city, formerly subject to its sovereign bishop.
The Duchy of Deux Ponts, formerly subject to the Elector Palatine.
All the Electorate of Treves, on the south side of the Rhine, with the chief city of the Electorate, and the city of Coblenz.
All the Electorate of Cologne, on the south of the Rhine, with its chief city.
The chief part of the Electorate of Mentz, on the south of the Rhine.
All the dominions of the Elector Palatine on the south of the Rhine.
The Duchy of Juliers, with its chief city, Aix-le-Chapelle, formerly subject to the Elector Palatine.
The Duchy of Cleves with the city of Cleves, formerly subject to the king of Prussia.
In the South, the Duchy of Savoy, with its chief city Chambery, formerly subject to the king of Sardinia.
The city and count of Nice, formerly subject to the same.
The principality of Monaco, formerly subject to its sovereign prince.
From Spain, the greatest part of their rich provinces of Biscay, and Catalonia, with their important garrisons, cities and foundries.
The whole of these countries are calculated to contain a population of thirteen millions of souls, which increases the French Republic to the enormous number of thirty-nine millions of people!
Dou Joseph Ignatius de Viar has been appointed by his Catholic majesty, Consul general for the United States of America, and acknowledged as such by the President.
The latest accounts from the treaty are, that the principal part of the hostile tribes of Indians have met, and brought in a number of prisoners. The Shawanese seem to be the only refractory tribe—a party of whom, we hear, are now gone against Maise's Station, on the Ohio. It is said Gen. Wayne will not open the treaty until the whole of the hostile nations are represented—and that in consequence thereof, a party of the other tribes have gone in quest of the refractory Shawanese, and are determined either to bring them to the treaty or take their scalps.
*** A large company, will meet at the Crab orchard on the 20th of July, in order to start early next morning through the wilderness.
***** Mr. Bradford:
I WAS much surprised to see a piece in your paper signed William Anderson , stating, that I had in a clandestine manner obtained a power of attorney from him for his pay on the last campaign, and revoking the same, and also forbidding the pay-master to pay it.—At the time the campaign was about to start last summer, this William Anderson was an apprentice to me, and expressed a desire to go on the campaign—I furnished him with a horse, saddle, bridle and other equipage, for the tour; in consequence of which, and also for his services, on our return home, he willingly and voluntarily executed the power of attorney alluded to, and acknowledged the same before a magistrate of Bourbon county, in order to enable me to receive the same; nor did I ever hear of his being dissatisfied
until I saw his publication in your paper, and I am well satisfied he would not have published that, had he not been persuaded to do so by some designing and malicious person.
H o . HALL.
Bourbon, June 28.
I do certify that I was present, and attested the above mentioned power of attorney, from William Anderson to Horatio Hall, and that the said Anderson at the time of executing the same, appeared to be perfectly satisfied therewith.

GEORGE SMART, CLOCK & WATCH MAKER,

AT the corner of Main and Mulberry streets, in the brick house lately occupied by Mr. Clark, thinks it necessary to acquaint the public, that he intends carrying on the above business in all its various branches; those who are pleased to favor him with their custom, may depend upon its being done with punctuality and dispatch. He has a neat assortment of thirteen inch plain double moon and seconds from the centre, eight day and thirty hour Clocks, likewise a few Gold and Silver Watches
NOTICE, is hereby given, To all persons whom it may concern,
THAT having legally purchased of Holt Richardson, two Military entries, of one thousand acres each—one lying in the fork of the first fork of Licking, the other lying in the first of the middle fork of Licking. That receipts are in my possession for the purchase money, and Mr. Richardson's bond, in the penalty of one thousand pounds, conditioned for the conveyance of said lands together with a lawful power of attorney to Maj. John Cook of Campbell county, vesting him with power to convey said lands. And whereas by a publication in Mr. Bradford's paper of the 6th of April last, a certain Thomas Carneal Esq. of Fayette county assumes a power of acting under an authority derived from said Richardson, and has undertaken to declare that the powers vested in Maj. Cooke were fraudulently obtained. I therefore forewarn all persons from purchasing any part of said land, as the power vested in Mr. Carneal, was, it is to be feared, sought after and accepted by him with a fraudulent intention, he having a knowledge of the purchase made by me prior to his leaving Kentucky last year.

COMMOTIONS IN FRANCE.
From a very hasty perusal of the Paris papers to the 12th April, it appears that provisions, bread es- pecially, is extremely scarce thro'- out the nation. Riots have taken place in consequence, in several places. At Rouen the people rose, seized the cannon at the Town House, cried out "Long live Lou- is XVII, he alone can procure us bread," overawed the National Guard, and appeared bent on some- thing desperate; and were not persuaded to disperse without great difficulty. It also appears, that something very serious took place at Paris about the first of April, when a decree of accusation was passed against Barrere and his ac- complices. The Convention was grossly insulted by an immense mob, above half women, who un- der a pretence of asking for bread, urged on, no doubt, by the royal- ists and anarchists, rushed into the hall of the assembly, clamorously demanding bread, calling on the mountain, "to thunder on the heads of the Frerons and Talliens ," and once more save the country." The President beseeches them "to retire, and leave the Assembly to deliberate calmly, for the general good." The press however conti- nued to increase, till the members were absolutely forced to adjourn in confusion, and make their escape over the ballustrades.
General Pichegru happened to be then at Paris, concerting mea- sures with government for the en- suing campaign; the Committee of General Welfare struck a bold stroke, and immediately appointed him temporary commandant of the Paris militia. At their head he soon quelled the rioters; but not before he had been obliged to ex- ercise all his courage, firmness and prudence. One attempt was made to assassinate him, by which he was wounded in the breast by a pistol ball; he had a horse killed under him, and was dismounted and thrown to the ground three times during the riot. One young offi- cer, who was active in arresting the ringleaders, after having his thigh broke by a musket ball fell, and was instantly seized by the wo- men, who tore off his cloaths, and were actually beginning to eat him alive, when he was rescued! (It is worthy of remark, that the women were by far the most ferocious, part of the mob, and most sanguin- ary and abusive when in the Con- vention.) The real citizens of Paris and the National Guard, were not concerned in the riot, but cheerfully rallied at the next sitting of the Convention, sur- rounded the hall, and swore to protect the honor & dignity of the government, or perish. Several others of the violent party, the supposed authors of the late com- motions, were expelled.—In short, it appears that the moderates have completely triumphed over their opponents.—When these accounts left Paris, all was calm; the ill- disposed were watched, and the Convention with republican guards at every avenue, were deliberating in security and tranquility.
PHILADELPHIA, June 10. Extract of a letter from Newport, R. Island, dated 2d, June, 1795. "The French frigate Medusa , of 44 guns, arrived this day at Newport, in 45 days from Roch- fort, in France, with Ader, the new ambassador, and De Latombe, the old consul of Boston. Brings news of a peace with Prussia and Venice, and that Barrere, Collot de Herbois &c. were not guillotin- ed, but banished to Caen in Nor- mandy. She took three ships on her passage, and burnt or sunk them, &c."

NEW-YORK, May 15 Extract of a letter from a gentleman in Glasgow to his friend in this city, dated March 18, 1795.
"I assure you, you may think yourself happy in getting out of this oppressed country, where every thing wears a more gloomy aspect every day. The continued successes of the French on the continent, have produced the most alarming fears and no less dreadful consequences. Two of the most eminent manufacturing houses in Paisley have stopped payment. Our trade at present is quite at a stand, on account of the embargo upon British shipping of every denomination, in order to raise seamen to defend this blest isle.—The accounts from the British army are most melancholy, after marching through a desert in the most inclement season ever known in that country, we have accounts that the whole of them are taken by the French. We have every reason to believe these terrible foes will soon pay us a visit."
PHILADELPHIA, May 15.
The moderate party of France, as it is called here have lately given a strong proof of their moderation, by putting to death those who would not join them in supporting their favorite system of moderation. Nothing appears in the act of accusation against Barrere, Collot and Billaud which, even if fully proved, ought to lead them to the scaffold; they fall victims to the spirits of party and the hands of men tho' perhaps more plausible are probably not so sincere in the cause of Republicanism: if, however, they entertain designs inauspicious to freedom, their projects will be blasted by the energy of a mass of people who having tasted liberty will not brook despotism in any shape.
The return of the Vendéans into the bosom of the republic, is confirmed by all the letters from those places which are only a few miles from the insurgents Cantons.
They write from Nantes, thirty five thousand rebels have laid down their arms and delivered up above one hundred pieces of cannon, a great quantity of ammunition, and considerable magazines of provisions.
The garrison and national guard of Nantes, appeared in arms on the 21st of February, and peace between the Republic and the inhabitants of the department of Vendée was solemnly proclaimed.
The latest intelligence from Switzerland gives some account of the celebrated ex minister Nerker. He is attacked by a malady of languor; his lady died some time since, and her body deposited in the bed room of her husband, who refuses absolutely to part with her till a superb mausoleum, which is ordered to be raised, is finished.
On the 25th of February the revolutionary tribunal acquitted a military man, who being unjustly detained in the prison of Bicetre, and finding it impossible to obtain an answer from the administrators of police, to whom he had several times applied, wrote them a letter in the following words:
"Since you won't condescend to occupy yourself with an unhappy sufferer, I will seize the only means left me in order to oblige you thereto. Know then that I demand a king; long live the king!"
The tribunal declared it evident that he has not entertained a counter-revolutionary intention, when he wrote that letter, but that finding his situation in prison insupportable, he had only endeavored to rid himself of existence. He was immediately set free.
Letters from Hamburgh, Feb. 15, mention that an extraordinary courier arrived there with the news of the Empress of Russia's sickness. She is said to be dangerously ill of
a dropsy in the breast. Her death would at this moment prove a grand and decisive event; it could not but have a great influence on the destiny of devoted Poland, and on the fate of the confederate despots; for Peter Pawolicz her son, who is generally considered as a simpleton among the Russian people, and as a wretched soldier in the army, is a declared enemy to the present administration and would probably begin his reign with dismissing all the enlightened and active ministers, who form now the right hand, the soul of Catharine; new favorites would stir up, to new model the present government, and the wife of the grand duke, a Princess of Württemberg, who is in some respects of the same temper, but not so enterprising and cruel as the profligate Semiramis of the North, would soon appear the sovereign arbiter of Russia.

Captain Hughes, of the Schooner Sally, 26 days from Kingston, says, that on the day he came out, a packet from England was just going into Kingston.
May 23.
Capt. Smith, of the ship John Bulkely, 46 days from Lisbon, informs, that Mr. Church, the American consul there, told him the day before he sailed, that he had just received advice of a severe and bloody engagement between the French and English fleets in the Mediterranean, each consisting of fourteen sail of the line; that the engagement commenced on the 14th March and lasted nearly two days; that on the first day the French proved successful, and took one 74 from the British, but that on the second the British had taken two line of battle ships from them; that both fleets withdrew from the engagement in a most shattered condition; the British having returned to Leghorn, and the French to Toulon.
Last Saturday morning, off the Capes of Virginia, the Thetis and Hussar British frigates, fell in with a squadron of five French armed ships, said to have sailed from Hampton road, and engaged with two of them, which after a long and obstinate combat were forced to strike. The other three made their escape. One of the French ships is called the Peruvian, of 26 guns, and had both her fore and main mast carried over board, before she struck, and the other is said to have carried 32 guns.
The above account is authenticated by Capt. Hotchkiss, who saw one of the French ships in tow of the two frigates off the Chesapeake on Monday last, and by Andrew Higgins, a Delaware pilot, who on Sunday morning spoke the brig Jane of New York, from St. Croix, homeward bound, the captain of which informed him, that he lay to during the whole of the engagement. No doubt, on his arrival he will be able to give us a more accurate account than we are at present in possession of.

[The following particulars relative to the unfortunate victims of Scotch despotism, cannot fail to interest every feeling mind.]
In the William Penn, capt. Josiah, there is arrived in this town, Mr. John Miller, Advocate, with his lady from North Britain. This gentleman is son to professor Miller of Glasgow, well known in the literary world by his publications. Mr. Miller was along with Mr. Thomas Muir, one of the members of the convention for a parliamentary reform held at Edinburgh, in winter 1792; and if Mr. Muir was sent to Botany Bay, for having lent a copy of Paine's Rights of Man, for having recommended the Political progress of Britain, and for other offences equally notorious, it is hard to say why Mr. Miller escaped the same fate, since we can from Personal knowledge at-
test that he was equally prompt to the commission of such enormities.
Just before this gentleman left London he visited Mr. Charles Gerald, destined for Botany Bay, but still a prisoner in Newgate. His acquaintances in this city will be happy to learn, that Mr. Gerald, whose health had been declining, is now perfectly recovered; and that there is some reason to expect his early arrival in this city. Strong interest had been employed in his behalf by the Duchess of Devonshire, and by Mr. Sheridan, who has on this occasion behaved with remarkable attention to the victims of Scotch despotism, and whose character seems to rise a degree above the vulgar herd of parliamentary place hunters.
We also learn that three or four days before Mr. Miller left London, he saw a letter just then received from Mr. Thomas Muir, who was likewise in health, and good spirits. His silence as to the health of his companions affords room to believe that they also were well. He mentions in three or four words, that his friends must have heard of the most extraordinary accusation laid against Messrs. Palmer and Skirving, and that he hopes for a day of justice. It was not perhaps prudent for Mr. Muir to be more explicit, lest his letter might have been intercepted. By other letters from the fleet it was learned that the captain of the transports, one Campbell had been disappointed in an attempt to extort some money from Mr. Palmer, this produced a quarrel. Mr. Palmer retired or was driven from the mess. He was placed near some female convicts, where his situation being absolutely intolerable, he petitioned for a removal, which was granted. But immediately after, he was accused by a British soldier of an attempt to excite a mutiny. The soldier himself had been concerned in a recent attempt in Canada to rid the world of one of the sons of the defender of the faith, a prince Edward, or some such name. On the evidence of this very reputable personage, Mr. Palmer, and soon after Mr. Skirving were put into close confinement. Mr. Palmer in particular was treated with every indignity which villainy could invent. He was cast into a hole, at the bottom of the hold, where, from the stench of putrid air, he was in imminent danger of suffocation. A British lieutenant of a ship of war, one Lyon, had been sent from on board by Campbell, and had given a general flogging to the male convicts, till with some difficulty he extorted an accusation or confession hostile to Messrs. Palmer and Skirving, who were expecting to be shortly tried by a court martial. These particulars are extracted from letters received in London, from two gentlemen on board the fleet. One of these was a botanist sent out by government, the other was the friend who has voluntarily attended Mr. Palmer to the place of his exile. We are thus explicit in pointing out our sources of information, that the detail may not be regarded as one of those fabrications that croud and deform the British newspapers. One of these authentic vehicles lately informed us that Mr. Thomas Muir and his wife were permitted to walk on shore, when the fleet was at Rio Janeiro. Now Mr. Muir is a Batchelor.
Some time before Mr. Miller left London, there was a grand dinner, at the Crown and Anchor Tavern, for the purpose of commemorating the acquittal of Mr. Thelwall, Mr. Horne Tooke, Mr. Hardy, &c. &c. The persons present in the principal room, were about twelve hundred, including the el-devant prisoners, and most of their jurors.—Three hundred people were supposed to be in the other rooms of the tavern, and about fifteen hundred were forced
to go away for want of room. The words "Acquitted felons," employed by Mr. Windham with regard to these people, were more than once mentioned with emphasis. The company were in the highest spirits. The Keanel of Mob Approbation is returning with rapidity to its former court, and a Parliamentary Reform will soon be demanded as eagerly as ever.
The friends of the Minister have now commenced friends to peace. The reformers on the other hand are foolish for a continuation of the war; as they think this will render inevitable the destruction of the minister and his system.
Extract of a letter from a gentleman in Montreal, to his friend and correspondent in Albany, dated the 25th March, 1795.
"You wrote to me for account of Mr. M'Kenzie's discoveries; I send you a small chart of his route. He set off from Lake Superior, and proceeded by Winnepegon Lake to Churchill river and Lake la Crois—From thence to Arachababeau Lake and up Peace river; after leaving the head of which, there is a carrying place of 1200 yards to the waters which fall to the westward—He entered this river and continued down it for about sixty leagues, where he met some Indians who informed him that the course of it, before it fell into the sea, would take him a month, and advised him to return to the forks of it, and from thence proceed by land—which he did; and in fifteen days arrived at the sea. Here he procured a canoe, and with six Canadians and one Englishman proceeded to the islands (called Queen Charlotte's islands) 20 leagues from the main land; where he saw Indians, who informed him that vessels had been there about a fortnight before; they behaved very insolent, and attempted to destroy him and his men, which obliged him to return. He left the entrance of Peace river in May, and in October returned from where he first set out. He brought with him several sea Otters; and ordered a post to be established at the forks of the river which runs west. He pursued the same tract that I did to Lake la Crois. The next attempt will be Pasqueaw river, which will be much shorter than by Arachababeau Lake; and in a few years, I make no doubt, but the road to the South Sea, will be as common as from York to Boston. —I could not give so good a description of the country in a letter, as by the chart enclosed, which I hope will be amusing to you.
"As the post are to be given up in 1796, I make no doubt but many of the Americans will be adventuring in the Indian trade;—which, however, I am afraid will be very disadvantageous in the beginning, as they will be at a loss for men experienced in the business."
