To distillers and others
WHO may incline to carry on the business of rectifying spirituous liquors and the manufacturing cordials in an extensive manner, may now be supplied with the necessary articles for carrying on the same, by applying at the sign of Andrew McCall's Apothecary's Shop near stray pen Lexington. The Articles principally are for making the following liquors, viz.
Spiritous aniseed-water ditto clove-water ditto orange-water, all fours, &c. Also for making brandy and geneva equal in flavour and purity to that imported. There are upwards of 300 lbs. of Holland juniper berries, and tools, aniseeds, which may be purchased distinct from the other articles, if applied for soon. Any person or persons inclining to purchase the whole, or the juniper berries or aniseed seed alone, or the whole of the articles for making brandy and cordials, will (if required) receive genuine instructions gratis, how to use them to the greatest possible advantage.
Also, an exceeding good COPPER STILL, almost a quarter of an inch thick, containing better than 300 gallons, with a worm made of the very best pewter, having ten turns and weighing upwards of 300 lbs. with a large quantity of wrought iron suitable to set up the still in the completest manner—the whole of which will be sold together on very low terms, and instructions given for fixing the works in the most complete order, so that it can be worked with more ease than many stills are now of 100 gallons.
N.B. Cordials can be made to more advantage in warm than cold weather.
Also, a FARM, of one hundred acres or upwards on the waters of Tate's creek. It is but one mile and a half from Winters's mills, and four miles from the Kentucky river; four acres of which is excellent timothy meadow, a very good hewn log house, nearly two stories high, with an excellent spring not ten yards from the house—also, a good stable, sufficiently large for four horses. On the said plantation there is a good public mill seat and two branches sufficiently large to erect a mill large enough to carry on the brewing or distilling business. The place will be sold cheap as the proprietor is in want of money.

FRANCIS DILL.

MADRID, May 16. At Carthagena, Alicante, and Malaga, quarters are prepared for 30,000 French troops, who are ordered from Italy to besiege Gibraltar. Columns of our own troops are being sent without interruption towards St. Roch for the same destination.
PARIS, June 1. Bills are at present posted up in the streets of this city, announcing the sale of the emigrant La Fayette's furniture, by public auction. But some of our papers say, La Fayette does not belong to the emigrants. The death of Pope Pius VI. has not yet been officially confirmed.
HAGUE, June 6. The most important news that has transpired is, that the armament prepared here is destined for the re-capture of the Cape of Good Hope, and our other possessions in the East Indies. In this great undertaking we shall be powerfully supported by the French republic. Therefore the greatest zeal and activity are displayed in completing the armament, and every thing is done to get the necessary transports ready for sea.
The French troops who are in the pay of our republic, and were on the Rhine, &c. are already returned to Guelderland, Overysel and Friesland. Their number will at present be reduced from 25,000 to 18,000, who remain in our pay.
TRENT, May 20. Liberty and equality are at present established all over the Venetian territory. Most of the towns have expelled their Podesta (chief magistrates) and other functionaries, and appointed municipalities, justices of the peace, &c. The people have exercised their vengeance upon several noble placemen, who had incurred their hatred. The Podesta of Belluno, Trevigo, &c. who found it impossible to escape were killed.
In many places it was necessary to call in the aid of the French troops to re-establish order.
BRESCIA, May 20. The Counts Agubus de Verità and Miglia and one Malenza, chiefs of the late insurrection in which the wounded and sick French were massacred, were shot at Verona on the 16th inst. The same fate, it is said, awaits the bishop and several dignified clergymen of that city.
The title of Excellency which was so common in the Venetian state is now abolished, and that of citizen generally introduced.
VENICE, May 10. General Buonaparte has not yet arrived at this place. Reports say he is gone to Turin.
The number of French troops in this city and its vicinity, amounts to 14,000.
A sequestration has taken place of all property belonging to Russians, Portuguese or English.
Our municipality continue their sittings, and business is carried on with the greatest confidence. Among the members are several ex-nobles, and characters of distinction. The lawyer, Galmi, has signalized himself by his eloquent speeches in the present session.
At present we are waiting the will of the French, whose laws dictate to our Republic.
To-morrow is the day appointed for the meeting of the archbishop and clergy of this state, in order to take the oath of fidelity before the municipality.
May 27. St. Marc, and his Lion, have been for the present prescribed as the arms and emblem of the Republic; but the inscription on the book held by the Lion, has been entirely changed. Instead of the latin words Pax tibi Marce Evangelista , the following Italian words are inscribed: Diritti e Doveri dell' Uomo e del Cittadino ; i. e. The rights and duties of man and the citizen.
The Venetian troops here are commanded by Gen. Salimbers. When the new municipality, first appeared in public with their tri-colored scarfs, on the great square, where the French and Venetian troops were drawn up in parade, the people expressed their satisfaction at the change of government by loud and repeated huzzas.
May 25. The patriarch [the head of the Venetian bishops,] and the whole clergy have this day taken the oath of allegiance to the new municipality. A division of the French commodore Sibilie's squadron appeared before the Islands of Corfu, whose inhabitants immediately on the arrival of the French abolished the old government. This was soon followed by a revolution in the islands of Zephalonis and Zante, and our other possessions on the coast of Turkey.
The French troops in this city and its dependencies; Chiozza, Mala, Mocco, &c. amount to 12,000.
ITALY, May 22. Letters from the capital, dated the 15th inst. mention that his holiness, who was reported to have died, was perfectly restored to health, and had appeared in public, to the great joy of his people.
VIENNA, May 27. La Fayette, Latour and Bureau de Pusy, have not yet been liberated.
May 31. The ratification of the preliminaries of peace has not arrived, but is daily expected. The exchange will immediately take place.
DONACHADEE, May 26. Yesterday there was a great disturbance at Belfast. Information having been received that arms were hid in a house belonging to a glazier in town, every military officer there, accompanied by a strong party of Monaghan militia, went at mid-day and searched the house, where they found one mortar, one swivel, a quantity of shot, flugs and cartridges, a box full of flints, and several pikes. Besides this they also found a number of coats for soldiers, on the buttons of which is a harp, and round it these words, Belfast National Guards . On the box which contained the flints, was painted a crown reversed, the Tree of Liberty on each side. The soldiers took the furniture into the street, and burnt it; they then walked in procession through the streets, carrying the coats with them. The owner has absconded.
LONDON, June 7. Yesterday notices from government were left at the houses thro' out several parishes in Westminster, requiring the inhabitants to hold themselves in readiness to arm in defence of their country.
June 8. The messenger sent to Paris has returned and brought for answer to the application of the British ministry, that the Directory are ready to enter upon a negotiation with Great Britain and will receive an ambassador for that purpose. A passport was accordingly granted.
A new treaty of amity and commerce has been made and ratified between Great Britain and Russia.
A captain of a neutral vessel has brought intelligence from the Texel, that a serious mutiny prevailed in the Dutch fleet: That the seamen complained of the want of provisions and had sent ashore the troops destined for the intended expedition.
SHEERNESS, June 10. I mentioned in my last—when I communicated the defection of the Repulse and the Leopard—that a very heavy fire was then commenced at the Nore, I supposed arose from some of the ships attempting to get away—that was the case. The Ardent at ten at night, the tide being then full, and the wind blowing strong in for Sheerness let go her anchor, and all standing bore away from the fleet.
She got to some distance, when the Monmouth slipped her head fast, and putting a spring on it to bring her up, poured a broadside at the Ardent, but fortunately not a shot struck her. The Ardent still got on, and the Monmouth kept working down upon her—the Ardent at length, turning up in the wind's eye, suddenly ran out her guns, and fired a broadside at the Monmouth, which we understand, killed ten and wounded sixteen men.
She then veered, and fired another broadside at the Monmouth, which did no damage, the shot dropping short of the Monmouth; the Ardent, at length got away, and is now in this harbour, just within the birth of the Repulse.
Six o'clock, P. M. A heavy cannonade has been heard here all this afternoon. On enquiry I learn, that the people in the Iris had differed among themselves respecting the hauling down the red flag, and hoisting the union, as a signal of return to obedience—the red flag men got the better in the end, with the loss of several wounded on both sides, but none killed—another account states that 13 were killed.
Parker shifted his flag this morning, from the Sandwich to the Montague of 74 guns, and the court of delegates of course shifted with him.
Eight o'clock, P. M. I am informed that one officer was killed and three wounded in the scuffle, on board the Iris. Just at the sun's leaving the horizon, I took an observation, & found sixteen red flags then flying.
Since noon the refractory ships in general have had and still have, the following colours; A red flag at the fore, union at the main, and blue at their mizen.
Several of the ships have shifted their ensigns, and hoisted a blue flag in their stead.
DUBLIN, June 2. Accounts of a very disastrous nature have arrived this day from several quarters.—From Cork, that admiral Kingmill's fleet have sent their officers on shore, and every thing there is in confusion; but the particulars have not yet come to hand.
Twelve devoted houses have been racked and gutted by the military and Orange men under their protection, in Belfast. A village near Newry is burnt to the ground. Mr. Luke Teeling, secretary to the Antrim meeting for dismissal of ministers and reform, has had his bleach green and works destroyed in like manner.
A member of a corps of Yeomanry has been tried for being an United Irishman; he is sentenced to be shot, and has been sent to Blair's camp for execution. Another, a sergeant to the Attorney's corps in Dublin, has been tried in like manner, for seditious words and neglect of orders. The sentence is not yet known.
In fine, terror is arrived to such a pitch, that many are coming in about Newry, to swear a forced oath of allegiance, and obtain tickets of loyalty. A deluge is ready to burst and they are banking it out with sand.
BOSTON, August 3. Authentic extracts of letters from a respectable citizen of this town now in France, to his friend here, dated Paris, May 9—14.
Report says, Buonaparte may be expected in Paris in 15 days—that he has offered his services to command an army of 200,000 men, to make a descent on England, and that generals Hoche and Moreau are ready to serve under him, and there is not a doubt it will take place if peace is not concluded in two months.
The second son of Mr Adams (President,) arrived here about 15 days since, and yesterday received an order to quit the republic. There are also several other Americans, who landed from England at Bologna, and not being able to obtain passports for Paris, came without; they have orders also to leave the republic forthwith.
NEW-YORK, August 4. A late London Gazette contains the following curious article, under the head of Army Promotions —"Ensign A. Rofs to be lieutenant; vice Handys, who is superceded, being with child."
[Minerva.] Another paper says lieutenant Handys was only a child—but the first statement appears the most probable, as every printer in New-York must know that it is neither now nor curious to grant a military commission to an infant, or to supercede an officer; but nothing similar to the other fact is recorded since the chronicles of the Amazonian Republic , consequently it is a curiosity in our times. The preceding must also be considered as just and necessary at the present period, from an example cited in the aforesaid records, of a great battle being lost on account of the general's pregnancy.
A correspondent who pretends to disbelieve the fact, ironically enquires whether a British Lieutenant can legally swear a bastard to a New-York
Printer who has got him with child. Extract of a letter from a gentleman in Newport (R. I.) dated yesterday, to his friend in this city.
"By a gentleman last evening from Boston we have accounts of an arrival at that place from England, which brings information of an action between the fort at Sheerness and four ships of the line and two frigates. The fort fired first. The sailors are declared in a state of rebellion.
"Further, that Fox and sundry others had left the house of Parliament."
VERY LATE. Foreign news pours in upon us in torrents, the Havre and Bourdeaux vessels last evening bring Paris accounts to June 13, but our files could not be obtained at so late an hour. There have been rejoicings at Havre on account of the prospects of a GENERAL PEACE, and the signing the definitive treaty with the emperor. A letter from Paris of June 13 in the evening, is said to declare, that "This moment lord St. Helen has arrived."—but we cannot give full credit to it as our London accounts to that very day are silent on his setting out for Paris, which important circumstance would certainly be rang in all the papers.
We are told that a Bristol Paper of June 25, is in town, but by what means is not ascertained; that this paper states, that a negotiation with the Directory for peace was agreed to be by commissioners; this is from Paris June 10, and seems not authentic. Also, that on that day the prospect was, that the mutineers in the fleet would soon be subdued, as the delegates were making their escape daily. That lord Bridport's fleet were at Torbay. The traits of our foreign politics are vast—big with fate—another 24 hours of southerly and easterly weather will probably wait us some great and important decisions.
General Kutschko was to have embarked on board the Light Horse, capt. Haff, which was to sail from Bristol about the 18th June, for this port, but he afterwards, with two Polish noblemen, and their servants, engaged a passage on board the Adriana, capt. Lee, for Philadelphia, which was to sail from Bristol on the 18th or 20th.
PHILADELPHIA, August 2. It is difficult to believe the accounts picked up at sea and brought by the America. The vessel that brought the latest English printed intelligence left Liverpool on the 11th June, and the verbal accounts by her are perfectly silent as to a settlement of the disturbances on board the fleet at Sheerness. The London papers to the 11th which is said to have brought, if common report be believed, contained intelligence the very reverse of conciliation. It is difficult therefore to conceive that between the 11th and 15th the revolted seamen should have been quieted—and matters restored to such order as that the fleet should be under due subordination off Dover on the 15th. That so much should be accomplished in four days is incredible. The fleet might be there; but not under the command of the officers, and it might be the interest of the revolutionists to send down channel news that order had been restored. It is more easy to believe, that Pitt is dismissed from the ministry, for the political concerns of the country at the date of our last printed accounts appeared seriously to threaten a crisis.
It was some time ago announced that an extensive plan had been formed in Prussia to abolish royalty and establish a republic. The chiefs of the plot (by a Hamburg paper we find) were: Zerboni, a member of the military Council of Prussia; Contessa of Brellan, and capt. De Leipziger, the son of the late Prussian general, of the same name. They have been convicted of high treason, and their relations were informed by a royal edict dated Berlin the 20th May, that the first had been condemned to be a prisoner, during the king's pleasure at the fortress of Magdeburgh; the second at Stettin, the third at Spandau; and the fourth at the fortress of Graudenten. It is shrewdly remarked by loyal Prussian subjects that but for the harmony subsisting between the French republic and the king, the four revolutionists would have lost their heads.

One hundred Dollars reward.
STOLEN OUT OF MY SHOP
THREE WATCHES, & TWO GOLD RINGS.
ONE of which is a small French gold watch, which I missed about the 20th of last September. I am informed the maker's name (which was on the face, and perhaps on the inside also) was L'Eppine, a Paris—there was a piece broke out of the face by winding with two large keys; it any carving on the case, it was only a little round the rim; and joint; when stolen it looked dull by lying some time out of use, wanted cleaning and a glass, had a small yellow chain with flat links and a small flat gilt key. The silver watches were both missed since the middle of this month: one of which was of the new kind of flat watches with gold hands, made by James Miller, London, No. 2296, if I remember right. The other is what is called a Holland watch, but I think it was made by John Ardern, Liverpool No. 1013; as well as I recollect, the cock over the ballance-wheel was silver, in which was a garnet stone for the wheel to run on; she had yellow hands, and the outside case flat like a box without any spring. One of the Rings was of a common kind, with middle sized square white stone. The other was an old mourning Ring, which weighed about half a guinea, lettered with "Frances Nelson, obit (date forgot) Aetas 84," but scarcely legible.
Whoever apprehends and delivers to me the thief or thieves, and the articles above mentioned, shall be entitled to the above reward, or twenty dollars for each watch and one dollar for each ring.
