AUSTRIAN NETHERLANDS.
BRUSSELS, Sept. 11.
AN ordinance of the King of Prussia is about to appear here, in which all the Administrative Bodies are enjoined to re-call their faithful priests, to drive from their territory all the intruders who have taken the oaths of the new Constitution; to restore to the churches their sacred vases, silver ornaments, and titles; and all this is to be done under penalty of a confiscation of their property, and of corporal punishment. The ordinance is printed, and ready to be distributed.
Lille is so blockaded, that no one can enter or quit it. All the large artillery has been removed from Ath to its environs, that General Beaulieu is encamped within half a league of that city. All the peasants in the environs, tender to the Austrians a voluntary offer of their services.
French Ecclesiasticks are con-

stantly arriving here: Notwithstanding they are very numerous, they find every necessary succour.
The French ladies, are employed in making shirts, which are distributed to those who arrive, the office of charitable contributions supplying the linen. Before the conclusion of the ensuing week, the archbishop of Rheims, and the Bishop of Soissons, will it is thought set out for their dioceses. We have just received the intelligence, that the Prussian advance guards are at Rheims.—Another official Bulletin will make its appearance this evening.
P A R I S, September 7.
At three o'clock in the afternoon of the fatal 2d of September, the sanguinary mob reached the Temple, where they were met by two of the commissioners from the National Assembly. It was with great difficulty they could be restrained from further acts of violence; they demanded the head of the Queen; the commissioners therefore to prevent a greater mischief, found it necessary to accompany them to the tower of the Temple, one of their leaders carrying on a pole the head of the Princess de Lamballe .
The commissioners, attended by an officer of the National Guard, and M. Palloi , the manager of the works round the Temple, undertook to inform the King and Queen of what was transacting, and that the people insisted on their viewing the spectacle they had brought. The head of the unfortunate victim was displayed, on their Majesties presenting themselves at a window. The Queen, and her daughter Madame Elizabeth , according to the reports of a violent Paris print, displayed, for the first time some sensibility; and the King, who obeyed without any hesitation, said to one of the commissioners—Sir, you are in the right.
When the mob went to the prison de la Force , where the royal attendants were chiefly confined, the Princess de Lamballe went down on her knees to implore a suspension of her fate for 24 hours. This was at first granted, until a second mob more ferocious than the first, forced her apartment, and decapitated her. The circumstances which attended her death were such as makes humanity shudder, and which decency forbids us to repeat: Previous to her death, the mob offered her every insult. Her thighs were cut across and her bowels and heart torn from her, and for two days her mangled body was dragged through the streets.
M. Roland , Minister for the home Department (blushing for the iniquities and massacres of his countrymen) thought fit, on
Tuesday, to write the following letter to M. Santerre , dated the 4th of September, in the fourth year of liberty:
In the name of the nation, by order of the National Assembly and the Executive Power, I enjoin you, Sir, to use all the means placed in your power by the law, to secure the safety of persons and property; and you are hereby made responsible for every violence done to any Citizens whatsoever in Paris. I send you a copy of the law which ordains you to preserve that security, and keep up that attention to it which I recommend to you hereby. I have acquainted the National Assembly and the Mayor of Paris with the orders I have given you.
Roland.
MASSACRE AT PARIS.
LONDON, SEPT. 8.
Extract of a letter from Paris, dated September 3.
THE rapid progress of the Duke of Brunswick's army was the cause of a dreadful insurrection which happened yesterday. On Saturday night at 11 o'clock, two couriers arrived here from Verdun, the dispatches by whom were immediately forwarded to the National Assembly. The dispatches were from the members of the definitive council (composed of members of the National Assembly) who were in the neighborhood of Verdun, which place they state to have been summoned to surrender by the Duke of Brunswick. I have been fortunately able to obtain a copy of the Duke's letter to the garrison on this business. It is nearly as follows:
"The Duke of Brunswick, in the name of their Imperial and Prussian Majesties, summon the town of Verdun to open its gates to the armies of their Majesties. The troops and inhabitants of this town, if they refuse, must be responsible for the misfortunes brought upon them by military operations, which will be carried on with the utmost vigor to reduce the place under the obedience of his Most Christian Majesty, its lawful sovereign. The inhabitants may rest assured of the protection of their Imperial and Prussian Majesties, and of the brothers of his Most Christian Majesty, if they obey the summons."
"A council of war was immediately called to answer the summons, and it was determined to hold out to the last moment."
"Yesterday morning the commissioners of the community assembled, and M. Hugenin , their president, stated, upon the authority of the ministers, that the combined armies had advanced as far as Verdun, which could not withstand their power for more than eight days. Means
were taken to prevent the circulation of this intelligence during the time of their deliberation, and they did not long hesitate upon pronouncing a decree and preparing a proclamation upon the subject. The decree, which was reported to the National Assembly, and approved by them, ordered the barriers to be shut, authorised the seizure of all horses for military service, the disarming of all suspected persons, and directed the citizens to hold themselves ready for marching at the first notice. The proclamation invited them to meet in the Champ de Mars, that 60,000 men might be immediately raised for the service of the country."
"The commissioners went to the sections, exhorting the people to attend this meeting, and to enroll themselves for marching. Alarm guns were fired as a signal for shutting the barriers, the tocsin was sounded and the general was beaten. The Champ de Mars was presently filled. The enrolment was proceeding with the happiest spirit, when it was suggested among the populace, that it was unsafe to leave their enemies not watched in the metropolis, and that the necessity of an immediate march demanded the slaughter of those who might desolate the capital during the absence."
"At this interval news arrived, that a body of four thousand French, detached by Dumourier to the assistance of Verdun (a strong town 150 miles east of Paris) had been defeated and obliged to retreat. This raised the fury of the people to its utmost height. It was proposed to cut the throats of every traitor."
"The people flew to the convent of the Carmelites, where the refractory priests of Paris were confined, and without mercy, the Cardinal du Rochefoucauld , and about 130 priests were massacred. From this they hurried to the Abbaye, where every man and woman confined under suspicion of crimes against the nation were also murdered. We cannot with certainty enumerate the names of the victims. It is too certain, that all the Queen's ladies, Madame Lamballe Madame de Tarrentte , &c. with M. Montmorin , M. D'Astry , and others, to the number of hundreds, fell under the pikes of the raging populace."
"In vain did the Assembly interpose its feeble power. Montmorin was slaughtered between two of the commissioners that they sent to stem their fury—and we hear but of one man who escaped, viz. M. Sicard , the minister of the academy for instructing the deaf and the dumb, and who was
saved by the active friendship of a M. Monnet ."
"Another very shocking spectacle was exhibited this morning. Twenty priests, anxious to escape, presented themselves at one of the barriers to pass. They were asked for their passport. The priests not having any, evaded to give an answer. A mob assembled in the mean time, and they were every man cut to pieces."
"From the prison the populace proceeded to the houses of suspected persons, and, wherever they found depots or any papers that discovered a correspondence with the emigrants, they slaughtered the owners. This horrid scene continued until day light, and there is no certainty of its having entirely ceased. Great quantities of arms are said to have been found, with which the people will immediately march towards Verdun. Couriers are sent off to all the departments, directing all the alarm bells to be rung throughout France, that all the citizens may appear before the enemy."
"The assembly have passed the following decree: Let twelve commissioners from the National Assembly be employed every day in the fortifications of Paris; let them moisten the soldier's intrenchments with the sweat of their brows, and let the whole Assembly dig a pit for the enemies of their country."
"A body of 50,000 men are to march with all speed from Paris to Chalons; they are to march in different bodies, and to unite at Chalons."
The most moderate accounts state the late slaughter at Paris to be 4000, the highest call them 7000—On Monday at 12 o'clock the tumult continued with little diminution. The National Assembly, the public offices, the treasury, during all these horrors, were unviolated. A letter received by one of the most respectable families in town, states the capture of Verdun, and that the populace, excited by this new disaster, were expected to destroy the Royal Family. But we are inclined to think, that Verdun is not yet taken, though a report to that effect prevailed in Paris on Monday."
Amidst these horrors, the only pleasing reflection is, that when this shocking news left Paris, the Temple, the residence of the Royal Family, was unattacked, and from the strong guard placed there by the municipality, it was hoped they would remain in safety—Upon the whole, it may rationally be expected, from the now undoubted near approach of the Duke of Brunswick to Paris, that the bloody scene will soon be closed; and that all the temperate and

rational part of the citizens, instead of opposing his entrance, will receive him and his army with cordial and open arms.
BRIGHTON , September 3.
This morning Mr. Burton's packet, from Dieppe, brought over 25 foreigners, amongst whom was the Marchioness de Bouille, who came over in the character of a sailor. Another, who was a person of distinction, was brought over in a trunk. The chief part of them took coach this morning for London.
INDIAN DEPREDATIONS.
IMPORTANT INTELLIGENCE.
SOUTH of the OHIO.
KNOXVILLE , October 10.
It is an undoubted truth (strange as it may appear) that the Baron D'Coriondolet, governor of Louisiana, and governor O'Neil, of Pensacola, have opened the stores of the King of Spain, in West-Florida, to the Creeks and Cherokees, and delivered them arms and ammunition in abundance, advising and stimulating them to go to war against the frontier inhabitants of the United States, and that quickly, that now or never was the time, while the United States were engaged with the northern tribes.
On the 30th September, about midnight, John Buchanan's station, four miles south of Nashville (at which sundry families had collected, and fifteen gunmen) was attacked by a party of Creeks and Lower Cherokees, supposed to consist of three or four hundred. Their approach was suspected by the running of cattle that had taken fright at them, and upon examination they were found rapidly advancing within ten yards of the gate, and from this place and distance they received the first fire from the man who discovered them (John M'Roy). They immediately returned the fire, and continued firing upon the station (block houses surrounded with a stockade) for an hour, and were repulsed with considerable loss without injuring man, woman or child in the station.
During the whole time of the attack the Indians were never more distant than ten yards from the Block House, and often in large numbers close round the lower walls, attempting to set fire to it. One ascending the roof with a torch, was shot, and falling to the ground, renewed his attempts to fire the bottom logs, and was killed. The Indians fired 30 balls through a port hole of the overjutting, which lodged in the roof in the circumference of a hat, and those sticking in the walls on the outside are inconsiderable.
Upon viewing the ground next morning, it appeared, that the fellow who was shot from the roof was a Cherokee half-breed, of the Running Water, known by the whites, by the name of Tom Tunbridge's step son, the son of a French woman by an Indian. And there was much blood, and signs that many dead had been dragged off, and litters having been made to carry the wounded to their horses, which they had left a mile from the station. Near the block-house were found several hatchets, swords, pipes, kettles, and bundles of different Indian articles: one of the swords was a fine Spanish blade, and richly mounted in the Spanish fashion. In the morning previous to the attack, Jonathan Gee and Clayton were sent out as spies, and on the ground, among other articles left by the Indians, were found a handkerchief and a moccasin, known one to belong to Gee and the other to Clayton, hence it is supposed they are killed.
Undoubted advices have been received that as early as the 18th of September, as many as five hundred Creeks passed the Tennessee, at the lower Cherokee towns, and below, on their way, as they declared, to make war on Cumberland, and that they were joined by about one hundred Cherokees of those
towns.—This must have been the party that attacked Buchanan's station.—Dreadful havoc was expected; but it is now hoped, that the check they have received, will induce them to return without making further attempts upon that settlement.
FROM FRANCE.
PORTLAND , Nov. 5.
Capt. SMITH, in the ship Eliza, arrived here on Saturday evening last, from Bristol in England, which place he left on the first day of October. Capt. SMITH has favored us with a London paper of the 27th of September. It contains but little information. The paper says expressly, that during the two last days, no advices of any kind had been received from France.—It was however reported that the city of Rouen had declared that it was disposed to accept the conditions offered by the invading despots of Germany, in preference to continuing longer exposed to the brutal violence of the party now prevailing. In consequence of this, a body of men had set off from Paris to chastise the city of Rouen.
By intelligence from Vienna of September 8, it appears that the Emperor has it in contemplation to hold a CONGRESS at Coblenz on the affairs of France. The courts of Spain, England, Holland, and other powers are to be invited to send ambassadors. At this Congress, if affairs go prosperously, the form of government for the provinces which may be taken, will be settled. But it is shrewdly added, that as this must depend upon the events of the war, it cannot be foreseen how far their proceedings may be brought to maturity.
The forces acting against France are to be immediately reinforced with 20,000 men. Prussia is to prepare a like number. The Empress chuses to keep her troops and send the money.
The republic of Holland have determined to take no part in the war against France, at least until the progress of the foreign armies becomes more decisive.—They will however give them every possible assistance; and are now sending troops to the frontiers.
While these things are doing by the government, individuals are supplying the French with horses, muskets, &c. by thousands. Government is sorry to see this; but does not pretend to stop it. In Holland they would as soon break the neck of a citizen as attempt to break his contract.
BOSTON , November 14.
"GALLIOPOLIS, on the Ohio," Aug. 31, 1792.
"I will endeavor to give you some information of the situation of the settlement on this river. On the 13th inst. our scouts which we daily send out (amounting to one corporal and four privates) for the protection of the inhabitants, while at work in the fields, upon their return at 6 o'clock, P. M. were fired upon by a party of Indians within half a mile of the stockade. One soldier was shot thro' the arm and body, scalped and tomahawked five times—notwithstanding which he made his escape, and came into garrison, and is in a fair way to recover. One other was taken prisoner, and the remainder made their escape, by the loss of clothing and arms. Frequently since we have had alarms, and Indians seen within a quarter of a mile of the garrison, and a camp discovered of about 100 men, near the settlement; and they have robbed the inhabitants of a great number of
cattle. On the 13th inst. one of the inhabitants was at work in the field, with his servants; they discovered and gave alarm that Indians were upon them—a party under a Lieutenant of militia, went out, discovered them, and Lieut. MOLDON, who commanded the militia, shot one through the body; the party pursued them by the track of the blood some distance, while they got into so great a thicket of brush and woods, that they were obliged to return. In fact the Indians have done damage to a number of settlements on this river. One family of five or six was murdered two weeks since; and a great number of horses and cattle taken, and fields robbed of corn.
"It is very sickly at this place, which contains about 300 souls, out of which forty-three are sick of fevers and agues."
