PHILADELPHIA, June 5. On Saturday, the first of June, arrived at New-York, the ship William, Capt. Anderson, in 41 days from Liverpool. This vessel brings London news to the 18th of April. The sum of her accounts is, that Portugal had joined in the league against France: That a French ambassador had arrived at Lisbon, who after two days stay, was ordered to leave the kingdom immediately—that an insurrection had taken place in Paris, wherein 30,000 persons lost their lives—that all the Bourbon family, except the queen and the prisoners in the temple, were to be confined at Marseilles, and to be held as hostages for the safety of the commissioners, whom Dumourier's treachery had delivered up to the Austrians.—The foregoing, with many others, are British ministerial accounts. From the minutes of the National Convention proceedings, and other Paris documents to nearly the middle of April, the republic was in safety, the insurgents on the decline, and a certainty existed that Dumourier, with a troop of hussar cavalry, general Valence, young Orleans, & a few other officers had gone over to the enemy, but that the army remained firm, and was re-organizing and re-enlisting rapidly under general Dampierre; thousands of recruits were coming in every day, and the northern army growing to such a size as to promise in a short time to be able to recommence active operations against the despotic forces.
June 12. The official intelligence that follows appears in a French Paris paper of April 8.— The posture of affairs on our frontier is hourly becoming more encouraging. Dumourier is nearly abandoned, and the different corps of the northern army are rapidly organizing into an invincible phalanx. The traitor in his flight had a narrow escape from the fire of several battalions; his horse was killed under him, and one of his aid-de-camps fell by his side. All the heavy artillery is returned safe to Valenciennes, and all the provision stores and ammunition to Douay. The fortified towns on the frontier are in the best possible state of defence against the attacks of any force whatever, and in a very short time, from the exertions that are making, will be proof to the most obstinate siege, and provided with every necessary for a great length of time; while the enemy are in an exhausted country, and must bring every breakfast they make some hundreds of miles. Thus, it is to be hoped, the check that treason has checked on us, will only serve in the end to disgrace the traitors who perpetrated it; and it will be no small advantage to the republican cause, if this event cures the French of their extravagant idolatry for individuals, and that silly propensity to enthusiastic admiration of their leaders, upon every transient gale of success. Ignorant or ill-disposed people do our cause immense harm, constantly spreading alarms and apprehensions on the state of our affairs, which have a fatal effect at a distance. Recruiting is going on rapidly, and discipline enforcing. Our enemies well know that France can never fall but by an ill-directed application of its strength. On the 6th of April, (1 st vent) after evacuating Malines, an immense value of property arrived safe into Douay, to say, 00 pieces of cannon, 7,500 muskets of the first quality, 2,000 pieces of small cannon with firelocks, 3,000 lbs. wt. of copper, a vast quantity of artillery implements, and lastly a mortar that was burnt in the bombardment of Lille, which the new commissioners on the frontier have ordered back to that place, in the name of the representatives of the nation, which in their opinion will be a most acceptable present to the
people of Lille, whose firmness and courage once saved the republic, and will save it again."
BALTIMORE, June 25. The latest European News-Papers advise, that the Venetian Senate had given orders, to the French Charge d'Affairs in Venice, to take down the French Republican Arms from his Hotel; which not being complied with by him, the Senate caused them to be taken down, in an ignominious manner by a number of stone masons, attended by an escort of 200 Shisri.—That the Prince of Sax-Cobourg had received orders from his Imperial Majesty to send to Vienna, under an escort, the French general Bournonville, with his adjutant, and the members of the French National Convention, now state prisoners, with an injunction to the officer commanding the escort to halt at the nearest post to Vienna, and from thence transmit official notice to the Aulic Council of War, of the arrival of the prisoners, who it was imagined were to be confined in the fortresses of Spielberg, in Moravia—that the States of the Austrian Netherlands had requested and obtained leave to send a deputation to the court of Vienna—that on the 11th, 12th and 13th of April, several bloody actions had taken place in the neighbourhood of Coude and Valenciennes, between the Imperialists and French, in which the latter, after obstinate resistance, were defeated—that on the 23d a smart engagement took place between their advanced posts, near Maubeuge; the French having advanced in great numbers, at first forced some posts of Chasseurs, who being reinforced, obliged the former to retire in disorder. That the French garrison at Mayence had offered to surrender, on condition of obtaining liberty to march out with the honors of war, and taking with them their Artillery and stores, which was refused—that the King of Prussia was approaching close to that City, in order to bombard it, and the bombardment was expected to be commenced on the 24th of April—that Lord Elgin had concluded a treaty with the Landgrave of Hesse-Cassel to furnish a body of 8000 Hessians—that on the 16th of April Madame Silery, accompanied by Mademoiselle d'Orleans and Pamela, passed thro Aix, and were followed next day by General Dumourier.—That the Citizens of Maubeuge, in case of being attacked by the combined Armies, had sworn to bury themselves under the ruins of the place and to hang the first person who should dare to speak of capitulating. That Givet and charlemont waited with equal resolution for the enemy, whose principal object seemed to be Valenciennes—that on the 26th of April, at Paris, the Gironde Party had gained a complete Triumph over the Jacobins—that Danton, Robertspierre, Merat and several others had been massacred—that the Girondes had appointed a new executive council, and were in full possession of the Government—that Paris was in a most dreadful situation, Executions frequent, and persons arrested on the slightest suspicion and sent to prison; the Populace in a state of famine, clamorous for bread, and with the most dreadful threats surrounding the houses of the bakers—that every thing threatened the greatest commotions. That the second son of Egalite having been apprehended by general Biron, the convention decreed that he should be conducted to Marseilles, and the whole of the Orleans family there should be tried by the criminal tribunal established in that city. that the price
of bread was till kept by the Municipality of Paris at three Sous per pound, whilst in the provinces it was from seven to eight, and that the whole Kingdom was threatened with Famine.
Lexington, August 3. A variety of concurring circumstances, tend to confirm a belief that the volunteers now raising in this State, will very shortly receive marching orders; consequently a report now in circulation that no campaign will go against the Indians this season, is without foundation.
MR. BRADFORD: I HAVE attentively perused the publications in your paper relative to the official conduct of the Secretary of the Treasury.—The resolutions on that subject were framed by a member distinguished for republican principles—were advocated by a Findley and a Madison, and were approved by one of our Representatives from this state who possesses, in a high degree, the confidence of his constituents. The result of that enquiry has alarmed many of the friends of liberty, not only here, but in every part of the union. I have heard the sentiments of many of the most enlightened Citizens of Kentucky on this subject; all of whom have expressed their surprize that those resolutions should have met with any opposition. Why one of our Representatives has voted against them contrary to the opinion of his colleagues, and the sense of his Constituents is a question which ought to be explained: The gentleman to whom I allude is now in this country, and I hope has too just a sense of the source from which he derives his appointment, to refuse or evade an explanation of the principles upon which that vote was given—His constituents should know, why an Executive officer has with impunity, violated the laws of our country—disobeyed the instructions of our first magistrate—dissipated our treasures and insulted that Legislative body, to which he is responsible for his conduct.
