Biographical and historical ser- mons, well executed, can never fail to be at once amusing and instructive."

Masonic Address:
Delivered by brother GEORGE RICHARDS, Before St. Andrew's Lodge, Dec. 27, 1794.
Venerable! Respected! Beloved! IT is inscribed on the pillars of MASONRY, that a brother's sufferings claim a brother's pity.—It is graven as with the pen of a dia- mond on the tablet of SOLOMON the Great, that a brother's feelings merit the relief of sym- pathy. Believing of a truth, that Heaven born Charity hath already prepared the mantle of fra- ternal love; that Masonic benevolence delight- eth to veil the imperfections of kindred human- ity; and fully persuaded that a brother in the midst of all his brethren, hath nothing to fear from the spirit of disingenuous criticism, whose maledictions were never heard in the Temple of
Concord; it needeth not the pen of the ready Writer, nor the tongue of the eloquent Orator, to interest the generous affections on his behalf, whom the venerable Master, respected Officers, and beloved Brethren of St. Andrew's Lodge, have kindly requested to be present with them on this day, the day of gladness, rejoicing and high solemnity, in which, as good men, faithful and true, the fraternity are annually assembled, to commemorate the virtues of a most sublime Co-worker, with the duly honored, dear, depar- ted patron of your sacred Institution; a Patron and Founder, who, long since, hath been ad- mitted to the ineffable degrees of Life, of Light and of Love; and forever abideth, together with his companion ST. JOHN, in the centre of the regular constituted encampment of the ROYAL ARCH celestial.
The animated piety of a BROOKWELL the refined elegance of a BENTLEY, and the ser- vent pathos of a WALTER; the genius of a KEITH; the knowledge of a WARREN, and the talents of a BARTLETT; the nervous dic- tion of a GORE, the Athenian polish of a MOR- TON, and the classical purity of an ELLIOT, preclude every hope of excellence. The Che- rubim of Virtue hath touched the lips of these Masters in Israel, with a living coal from the altar of Science. As burning and as shining lights in the golden candlestick of the East, giv- ing of light unto all that are in the house,—may they illuminate the path of the wayfaring bro- ther, who tarrieth but for a moment, and point him forward to the morn that shall be without a cloud, the harbinger of more perfect day.
"Masonry, faith a well-informed Scribe, pas- ses and is understood under two different denomi- inations. It is operative and speculative. By the former we allude to the useful rules of ar- chitecture, whence a structure derives figure, strength and beauty, and whence result a just correspondence and due proportion of all its parts. By the latter we learn to subdue the passions, act upon the square, keep a tongue of good report, maintain secrecy and practice cha- rity."
The grand outlines of operative Masonry were primarily described by the compass of the SUPREME ARCHITECT on the trestel board of EDEN. In this mansion not made with hands, our great progenitor studied the designs of the High, the Holy, the Reverend, most Adorable GRAND MASTER of Heaven and of Earth: and previous to his departure from the bowers of paradise, the august Sire of all living, became intimately acquainted with the principles of solidity and convenience: A very ancient re- cord asserts his attention to the dissemination of useful knowledge; for although as Masons, we affirm constantly, that he confided the mystery within the Vail, to ABEL alone, yet, it cannot be denied, that even the wretched fratricide was taught the theory of building, and after- wards founded a city on the East of his father's early abode. Nine hundred and thirty years did the lamp of ADAM burn bright before his numerous offspring, and so rapid were the im- provements in science, that elegant arts and useful inventions characterized the seventh ge- neration.—From this period, the dawn of the day spring of refinement, luxury and dissipation moved on in front; prophanity and vice fol- lowed hard on their rear; and the sons of God forgetting their exalted origin, or despising their heavenly birth right, led on the fair daugh- ters of men to the secret chambers of voluptuous pleasure. By them the whole earth was filled with the violence of moral evil. All flesh be- came impiously corrupt, and a defolating flood swept them away, as with the besom of destruc- tion.
WHERE now, are those monuments of art, the handy craft of masterly genius, by which, operative masonry, adorned and embellished the Antideluvian world?—The rain descended, the winds blew, the floods came, they beat vehemently upon that house, it hath fallen, and its fall was great; the waters of oblivion have passed over its foundation, and the place which once knew it shall know it no more again forever. One, solitary column, the pillar of ENOCH, in the land of Siriad, resting on its own base, im- moveable, bade the billows of the mighty deep unheeded roll. The deluge passed forward; it was left behind—But time has effected, what the floodgates of ocean failed to accomplish; its base hath been overturned from its centre and the top-stone of its antique capital is mouldered into dust. Verily, verily, the fellow- labourers of the ancient globe, laboured not to subdue the passions; their conduct through life was not formed by the square; they kept not their tongue as the key of the heart, and the WIDOW'S SON was forgotten in the midst of their assemblies.
My Brethren! The winged emblem of in- nocence hath returned to the ark. An olive branch in the mouth of a dove is the sign of established peace.—The rain from on high is restrained.—The windows of the heavens are opened no more.—Nevertheless, be ye assured for a certainty, that every effort of operative Masonry, to build a city and a tower, must fail of success, if PIETY and LOVE mark not the

wisdom of the builder and the strength of the building. This making to ourselves a name, that we may live, whilst we are dead, is the toil of vanity, which inheriteth vexation of spirit.—The OMNIPOTENT MASTER of the Universe hath determined to scatter these foolish workmen abroad; and the line of confusion shall be stretched around them, whether they find a place in the land of Shinar, inhabit the vale of Zeredathah, or dwell on the pinnacle of mount Meriah.
It is SPECULATIVE MASONRY reduced to vital practice, which constitutes the glory of the latter house.—This second temple are we: And a greater than Solomon, even the High Priest of the golden altar hath left unto his Brethren, a solemn, an animated charge: In the volume of the book it is written, as with the finger of Deity.
VENERABLE! Respected! and Beloved! The first obligation of Masonry, is, thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart and with all thy soul, with all thy mind and with all thy strength; and the second is like unto it, thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.—The love of GOD and the love of Man, form those grand pillars of the composite order, uniting of earth to heaven, and of heaven to earth, whose corner stones are laid in time, whose top stones shall be brought forth in eternity, amid the noon tide-shouting of the first born sons of immortality. These durable columns support the whole building, which sits framed, in symmetry and order, in harmony and beauty, growth unto an holy temple, inscribed to the Father of Lights: Amid "the wreck of matter and the crush of worlds," they shall lift aloft their crowned capitals to the sky, and founded on the rock of everlasting ages, the rains may descend, the floods come and the winds blow—the war of elements is but in vain, they cannot fall. Happy thrice happy is the brother and companion, who feeleth these pillars whereupon the house standeth, nor feeleth them like SAMPSON, in the moment of death alone. Is it not yet a very little while, and the heavens that now are shall suddenly pass away, and the earth be utterly dissolved? What manner of persons ought ye then to be, in fervent piety towards GOD, and in ardent love unto Man? To venerate, love and obey the giver of every perfect gift, constitutes your reasonable service as Men, as Masons, and as Christians. To love Man, the express image of his Maker, and the brightness of the divine glory, not in word only, but in deed and in truth, is the sole criterion of your being good men, faithful and true. Suffer me therefore, with all the warmth of brotherly affection, most earnestly to entreat every Apprentice bound to the Noachidæ, that he walks worthy of the vocation whereunto he has been called, for it is the high, it is the holy vocation of glory and of virtue: And beside this, let the fellow craft working with HIRAM el Abiff, give all diligence to add unto his knowledge, temperance, patience, godliness, brotherly kindness, and that charity, which is the brightest gem in the breast-plate of the Masonic Ephod; whilst the light of the MASTER so shineth before men, that they beholding his good works, may glorify the Sun of Righteousness, the centre of the System.
VENERABLE! Respected and Beloved! A word to the wise is more than sufficient. Such indeed are ye, the Sons of Wisdom and the Children of the Day. It now remaineth, that I bid unto this Assembly, a most affectionate, pathetic and heart-felt farewell. My fathers! the chariots of Israel and the horsemen thereof; my Brethren, my companions, co-workers and fellow-labourers, forever fare ye well.
Official Paper.
[The following, as an official paper, is intitled to publication.]
PROCLAMATION Of the last Admiralty Decree in Bermuda, Court of Vice-Admiralty, Bermuda.
Having heard, perused, and attentively considered the libel of John Nash, commander of the private ship or vessel of war, called the Retriever, in behalf of himself, as well as the officers and crew of the said ship, against a certain vessel or schooner called the Betsey, and her cargo, and the claim of Ebenezer Wheelwright, late master of the said schooner, for the same; and having examined the answers of the said Ebenezer Wheelwright and others, taken on the standing interrogatories, and the several papers and documents exhibited, together with the deposition of said Wheelwright, touching the free intercourse now alleged to be allowed by commanders of his majesty's ships, to masters trading to and from French ports, in the island of Hispaniola—it hath appeared, and will appear to me, until I am possessed of better information, that neutral vessels, trading as this vessel hath traded, do come within the verge of a well known and long recognized rule of law.
That such trade is illicit and collusive; that since the conquest and possession of certain places in the late French division of the island of Hispaniola, by his majesty's fleet and army, such trade hath appeared to me an open violation of the good faith that ought to be observed by neutral powers, and a wide departure from that pure neutrality which is required of them by the laws of nations. Much has been said, and much remains to be said, respecting the precise definition of sieges and blockade: On this subject, as well as on others of the like nature, men will adapt opinions as they are severally affected, and reason agreeably to the different sides they take.
Formerly, I think in the year 1777, (for I
speak from memory) the Congress of the United States of America, resolved, "That all vessels employed in transporting stores, &c. to the enemy in New-York, should, if taken, be lawful prize," for otherwise, as was observed, it would be easy for subjects of neutral nations to supply the British at New-York, with all things necessary for carrying on the war with America, by collusion. The resolve was wise, and the inference obvious; yet probably neither the Admiral of the British fleet, nor the commander in chief of the troops, both at that time in New-York, might have granted that they were either besieged or blockaded.
The resolve was, notwithstanding, adhered to by Congress, their ships captured neutrals under that rule, and their Admiralty Courts condemned them. When his Majesty's fleet and army, arrived at Hispaniola, for the express purpose of conquest, when many places of strength were carried by their arms, on our side, and the forces of our ally the king of Spain, seconding British efforts, were mutually pressing forward for the entire reduction of the French parts of that island: And when the French islands, (the same formalities perhaps may have been omitted) were all declared in a state of blockade, surely it cannot be held a false conclusion, to consider the French in the island of Hispaniola, equally besieged or blockaded at one period, with the British in New-York, at another.
On the above principles, and obligatory on me as the Judge of a British court, have I condemned the property of those neutrals, who, as I conceive, had clearly aided his Majesty's enemies, and by furnishing them with articles, the most essentially necessary, had thereby, the better enabled them to carry on the war against his Britannic Majesty, and his ally the king of Spain.
It is now averred, and with some semblance of truth, that neutrals trading to French ports in Hispaniola, are not at present interrupted in such intercourse, and that the commanders of his Majesty's ships on that station, (probably acting under some legal instruction which has not yet reached this court) do, at this time, suffer neutrals to trading to pass unmolested, although to their knowledge bound to, or coming from the ports aforesaid. I do therefore, for the removal of my present doubts, and to the end that solid and impartial justice may be administered, think it prudent to defer a final sentence or such as in this case might have the face of one, until evidence immediately from, or authenticated by his Majesty's officers commanding in chief at the aforesaid island of Hispaniola shall be obtained, hereby granting and allowing ninety days from the date hereof, for procuring such official and authenticated information in the premises as this court may deem satisfactory. And I do, by this my interlocutory order, further direct, that the said schooner, so called the Betsey, with her boats, tackle, apparel and furniture, together with all and singular her cargo and lading, be delivered to the claimant; he, the said claimant, first giving good and sufficient security for the said property, and further abiding the judgment of this court, and in case the claimant shall refuse so doing, that the said schooner and her lading be delivered to the said libellants, or to their agent or agents, or to their previously entering in this court, the like stipulation.
JOHN GREEN, Judge. Promulgated in the court of Vice-Admiralty, this 25th day of April, 1795.
Latest from Europe.
On Sunday, arrived here, the ship Minerva, Capt. Scott, and Mary, Capt. Cunningham, from London. Papers by them are as late as April 3, but are almost totally barren of events of any importance.—A few extracts follow:
FRANCE. NATIONAL CONVENTION, March 5. Letter from the Agency of Commerce, and the Commissioners, appointed to collect monumens of the fine arts in Belgium.
Citizen Representatives. "The complete collection of the finest works of Rubens, Van Dyke, Jordaens, Crayer, Michael Angelo, &c. which you ordered to be brought from Belgium, is now exhibited to public view in the Saloon, which leads to the National Museum. Subjoined is an account of each picture, and of the place from which it was taken."
PARIS, March 24. We learn from Madrid, that the Spanish court has requested the French Government to send thither a negotiator in order to settle a final and lasting Peace; and, it is asserted here, that an envoy set out a fortnight ago.
NETHERLANDS. BRUSSELS, Feb. 21. Every thing here announces the dispositions of the French Republic for opening the next campaign. Our municipality take wise measures for assuring abundance of provisions of all sorts.
The representatives of the French People have issued an order respecting the administration of national property. They have declared the property of the republic every thing belonging to the old government; for foreign princes at war with the republic, or in the service of the enemy; to the ci-devant clergy of France; Lay and Ecclesiastical Establishments or corporations suppressed in France. To the clergy establishments and corporations whose benefices and seats of establishments are out of Belgium; to French emigrants as described by the law; to emigrants from the conquered countries, convents, benefices, &c. to all persons condemned to confiscation of property.
They have sequestrated the property of all subjects of foreign powers with whom the republic is at war; the property of Frenchmen whose property in France is sequestrated; the property of absentees from the conquered countries, who have retired into any country occupied by the armies of the republic, until their case shall be finally decided upon.
MARCH 2.
A corps of from thirty to thirty-five thousand men, from the army of the North, is on its march for the bishopric of Muser and the country of Hanover.
We have been all much diverted by a pleasantry of General Ferrand, commandant of this city. A very rich inhabitant had reported for several days that the Austrians had recrossed the Rhine, that the French had raised the siege of Luxembourg, and that the victorious enemy was advancing to Namur.
This news he affirmed to be certain and spared neither money nor pains to circulate it. Gen. Ferrand sent for the alarmist; ordered him to repair at his own expence, first to the banks of the Rhine and then to the camp before Luxembourg; to bring an accurate account of the state of things in both quarters, and to pay for publishing and distributing it on his return. General Ferrand's penal code would ruin half the Gazette writers in Europe.
MARCH 16.
It is believed from the immense preparations of the Austrians, that they will soon cross the Rhine to Luxembourg.—They have on the mouth of Lahn, a number of coars of every size, and have formed a boat bridge, from the right bank of the Rhine, to an island lying in the middle of that river. So it is probable the inhabitants of the unfortunate countries will witness most dreadful and important events.
FRANKFORT, March 10.
It is expected that the Imperial Army and that of the Empire will shortly cross the Rhine, having received orders to keep themselves in readiness, and have even made a shew to break it up.
WESTPHALIA, March 10.
The French have assembled on the banks of the Yssel 40,000 men, 18,000 of which are at Zwoll, and the rest at Deventer and Zutphen.
It is said that the French have received orders to attempt to drive the Austrians out of the Country of Munster, across the Vester, and to undertake the siege of Wesel, and that they in consequence thereof would cross the Rhine in three columns near Spick, Arnheim, and Doefburg, in the Duchy of Cleves. But as the Prussians arrive in full force in Westphalia, and the Allies in general make dispositions to resist the French effectually—we are in full hopes they will prevent all this.
ENGLAND.
LONDON, March 18.
What a sad reverse of circumstances and of language respecting the Continental Crusade, since May, 1794! Instead of talking of towns taken in French Flanders, and calculating in how many weeks our victorious army might be expected to enter Paris, our sanguine expectations are, "that the British troops and hospital, stationed at Embden are safe on board the transports lately sent over."
COMMOTIONS and ALARMS.
Commotions in France, Commotions in Spain, Commotions in Germany, Commotions in Holland, in Italy, in Poland,—and England in state of alarm,—where can a man live?—Perhaps if he had his free choice of a sort of non-existence for half a century, he might after having carefully inspected the present state of the world, like don Quixote's Chemist in a bottle, desire to be corked up for fifty years and then pop out to see what were the contents.
MARCH 23.
A report having been circulated in Paris, that the Barbary states had joined the confederation against France. A notice was published on the first instant, that the best understanding subsisted between the Republic and the States on the coast of Africa; that corn was daily arriving from the states in the French ports in the Mediterranean; and that a letter from the Dey of Algiers had been received by the Committee of Public Safety, containing the strongest assurances of amity.
MARCH 25.
On Saturday a flag of truce failed from Plymouth for France, with the French captains of l'Athalante, l'Espion and la Tourterelle, to be exchanged for Rear-Admiral Bligh, Captains Kittoe, and Cotes, of the British Navy.
MARCH 27.
The Minister, it has been long known, has a twivel argument, relative to the war. When we are successful, it is glorious to go on; when we are not so, it is disgraceful to stop. He has now another twivel argument, as to Ireland; when Mr. Fox talked of that country, last Session, his enquiries was improper, because all was well; on Thursday night, they were equally so, because all was wrong!
MARCH 28.
The Russian and American Treaties are very important considerations in the present contest. We shall take the first opportunity of laying the particulars of each before the public.
There are arrivals in the river of neutral vessels, which left Havre, at the 19th at night. They bring accounts from Paris so late as the 17th at night. The trial of Barrere, &c. was not then finished, nor likely to be for some days.
From two well informed passengers by these vessels, we have obtained the following account of the prices of provisions, &c. at Havre: American flour sold at nine crowns, or 45 shillings English per barrel, or 58s. 6d. to 3l. English, for specic; rice was scarce and very dear; common loaf bread, at from one penny to five farthings per lb.; candles at 24 sous per lb.; soap at 22 sous per lb.; fresh beef 3 livres per lb. in paper or 5 pence English per lb. of 16 ounces; leather, at from 25 sous per lb. to 1 shilling English. The prices of canvas, of hemp, and iron, were under the London prices. The price of dinners, as at the usual table, d'hotes, was from 20 to 24 livres in paper. The paper liver was reduced by depreciation to be worth but two pence English.
There was a general talk, that all paper circulation was to be suppressed, and nothing but specic to pass.
Almost all articles brought from neutral powers, are paid for in specic, generally in silver, old and new six liver pieces worth there five shillings English; but three pence or four pence less in England.
Several ships of war were building with great rapidity—none of two decks, but large frigates constructed to carry 44 and 48 guns, 24 and 32 pounders. They are also preparing several gun boats, which were nearly ready; also corvettes, or sloops of war, which are ship rigged, calculated to carry one fifteen inch mortar, and from 12 to 14 guns on the same deck 32 pounders; these last, they speak highly of, and are paying great attention to; two of these corvettes, with one of the new 48 gun frigates, failed lately for Brest.
The commissioners sent to demand the restoration of the Dutch ships stopped in our ports, and to propose re-establishing, provisionally the communication between Great-Britain and Holland, are, we understand, immediately to return, all discussion upon the objects of their mission being precluded by a direct refusal on the part of our Government to acknowledge the authority from which they derive their powers.—This is one very important step towards a declaration of war between the two countries.
After the victory of the first of June, the grand Fleet returned into port immediately, and never stirred again for three months. They came in the beginning of June, and failed out of the channel again only the beginning of September. During those 3 months, the French Fleet came out in detached squadrons, and made great depredations on the trade of England, Holland and Spain.
MARCH 30.
The accounts from the army are, that in consequence of the daily skirmishes, in which a number of men were uselessly lost, our troops have evacuated Benthem; that a great number of the sick have been embarked, and that no apprehensions were entertained for the remainder. The mails and letters were on board three other packets, which failed at the same time with that which brought the messengers, but they are all put back. They are expected this day or to-morrow.
There are reports that a Treaty is concluded between this Court and the Empress of Russia, by which the Empress agrees to furnish twelve ships of the line to be employed against the French, any where except in the Mediterranean. The Messenger from Vienna does not bring the answer from the Emperor with respect to the loan; and this is accounted for by saying that there has not been time for the ultimatum since the last dispatch went from this country.
From Italy the accounts are, that an application has been made to the Arch Duke to permit a French army to march through Tuscany, to which he has not given his assent, but such an alarm has been thereby given to the English inhabitants in Florence, that they were on the eve of their departure.
There has been a very considerable riot in Rome. The Pope had prohibited masquerades, and had afterwards granted a privilege to the Prince de Borghesse to have one.—The populace rose on this occasion, and threatened outrages of an alarming nature, which were with difficulty suppressed.
APRIL 1.
The substance of the intelligence brought by the late mails is, that the French have entered Westphalia, in considerable force, and have borne down all opposition before them. Their head-quarters are at Bentheim, of which place they took possession on the 14th inst. after two obstinate engagements with the Germans on the 12th and 13th.
A Treaty of alliance with the Empress of Russia has just been signed by our court.
We do not presume to know the precise nature nor the conditions of this alliance, but it is said that it goes to engage the Empress of Russia to furnish 40,000 men, and 12 sail of the line to act against France.
APRIL 3.
Accounts received from Genoa, mention, that the Dey of Algiers had declared war against England, and was determined to act in the strictest union with France, in consequence of receiving some ships of war and great sums of money from that Republic.
The Prussian army, which will act in the ensuing campaign, will consist of between 60 and 70,000 men.
The national debt in Holland amounts to five hundred millions of Dutch florins.
ENCAMPMENTS.
Encampments are ordered, to be formed consisting of Dragoon Guards, Fencibles, Artillery and Militia, at Borham Downs, Hithc,

Dungeness, Sheerness, Isle of Thanet, Deal, Dover, Bexhill, Hastings, East-Bourne, Seaford, Brighton, Little-Hampton, Chichester, Selsey Island, and Isle of Wight.
Preparations against an invasion keep the sea coast in constant activity. Floating batteries, and gun boats are building in various places.
The idea of an invasion is held up in all the Ministerial papers, as highly probable, merely to gull John Bull to grant cheerfully the supplies; and to consent to have his head powdered, and to pay for it.
A monument is to be erected to perpetuate the memory of Capt. ROBERT FAULKNER, late of his Majesty's frigate la Blanche, killed in the engagement with la Pique French ship of war. Upwards of an hundred guineas have been already subscribed.
HOUSE OF COMMONS, March 23.
The number of Dutch merchantmen detained in our ports, exclusive of the East-Indiamen and ships of war, is calculated at 110 vessels.
The Emperor of Morocco has declared war with the Americans, and has ordered his cruisers against them.
By letters received in the Lisbon mail which arrived on Friday, it appears that the Spanish Government are in the utmost dread lest the city and fortress of Gironda should fall into the hands of the French.
Accounts from Constantinople, subsequent to those which mentioned the conference of the Russian Minister with the Reis Effendi, upon the affairs of Poland, state, that the former has delivered a very positive representation upon the neglect of the Porte to indemnify the Russian Merchants for the confiscation of their vessels and merchandise previous to the declaration of the last war. The demand on this score amounts to a million and a half of piasters; the revival of which was looked upon as portending an approaching rupture.
IRELAND.
DUBLIN, March 20.
The meeting of the Whig Club of Dublin is too important to be passed over in silence. It is important, as Mr. Grattan's reply to the Address of the Roman Catholics is not now to be considered merely as the act of an individual, but as a declaration of the sentiments of himself and his friends; Mr. Ponsonby, the Duke of Leinster, Mr. Conolly, and the other leading friends of Lord Fitzwilliam, having come forward, in a public manner, to countenance it.
MARCH 28.
By a letter from Basse to a gentleman in this city, dated the 8th inst. we learn, that an English gentleman, in consequence of a passport obtained for him by the Swedish Minister in Paris, had set out for that city. This gentleman, whose name, however, the writer does not mention, was said to be charged with a proposal from the British Cabinet to open a negotiation for the restoration of peace, to the Committees of the Convention.
The letter adds, that it had been signified to all Ministers of belligerent powers, by the Committee of Safety, that no suspension of arms or armistice would be agreed to by the French Republic, pending any negotiation!
ROTTERDAM, Feb. 24.
The revolution in Zealand seems to be complete. Electors chosen by the people have nominated new Regents, and the people have mounted the Ensigns of Liberty.
HAGUE, February 29.
The Presidential Chamber of Amsterdam, has communicated to the Provisional Representatives of the People of Holland, the answer of the Directors of the East-India Company to the following question, "For what reason have the Company's ship been detained so long in England?"
The Directors, in their answer, declare, that having no power to give directions to the convoy under the command of Capt. Orthuis, it is impossible for them to assign any reason for their ships remaining so long in English ports, and they do not even know whether all or any of the said ships are still in English ports.
All the States General have hitherto come to no definitive resolution for laying an Embargo on English ships in the ports of the Republic, and as this measure demands all possible dispatch, the Deputies of Holland to the Assembly of the States General have been charged to effect, that directions be immediately sent to the Admiralty for issuing the necessary orders to the officers commanding the ships of the State to prevent the sailing of English ships from our ports, by force if necessary, and to call for the assistance of the French Commanders.
It was resolved, after a long debate that seals should be put upon the papers of M. Fagel, formerly Register of the States General, and on those of his two clerks.
FROM THE TEXEL, Feb. 21.
The number of ships of war, great and small, forming the Dutch marine, amounts to between eighty and ninety, of which between forty and fifty were in the ports of Holland at the time of the envalion; the rest were at sea, or in the colonies.
GRONINGEN, Feb. 26.
The revolution has been effected peaceably in this city as in all the rest.
The Stadholder in a regency has been replaced by patriotic magistrates.—The English and Hanoverians are flying without order or discipline. Terror precedes them, murder, pillage, and desolation mark their course.—Groningen paid for their passing by, by sending them whatever they demand. They traversed a part of the Fort-Erile, as one would traverse a desert, the inhabitants having all fled.
At Edenbourg, in Gueldres, the inhabitants were ransacked, the churches plundered, and no property respected.
PHILADELPHIA, May 8.
Extract of a letter from a clergyman in London, received by the ship William Penn, dated March 14, 1795.
"On the Fast Day, appointed by government, I was forced to show my silent disapprobation, took no notice of the fast—but preached on another subject text "thinkest thou this to be right." The subject was one of the ordinances of the New-Testament.
"Times here are shocking—tens of thousands in several countries starving. I have often, of late months, wished I was happily landed in America. We are near some awful crisis here, and if our administration don't make a reform, there will surely be a revolution."
NAVAL ENGAGEMENT.
Capt. Wicks, informs that about 15 days before he arrived at the Isle of France, the Centurion, a British 50 gun ship, and the Diomede frigate of 40 guns, had arrived on the coast, to intercept the trade; in consequence of which, two French frigates, the Cibelle and Prudent, the one of 36 and the other of 32 guns, had been dispatched after them; an engagement had ensued, which was obliquely maintained on both sides, for five hours; when in a shattered condition, they parted after a drawn battle. The loss of the Cibelle, was 100 men killed;—that of the Prudent, not so great. One of the British ships was in so shattered a condition, that she could scarcely be towed safe to port.—Their loss of men could not be ascertained. It was supposed that they had failed for Bombay, to refit, as they had neither been seen nor heard of since the engagement.
The two French frigates were in port when Capt. Wicks sailed from the Isle of France, and all their privateers called in.
The port was guarded by three fortifications of 100 pieces of cannon with a numerous garrison of troops in high spirits, and well supplied with provisions, who were determined to hold out to the last extremity, in case they should be attacked by the British.
MAY 19.
Messrs. Dunlop and Claypoole,
In your paper of this morning, you mention, that Captain Wheelwright, from Bermuda, informs, that Messrs. Jennings, Tuckers, and Co. had given instructions to the commanders of their privateers, to bring in all American vessels, either bound to or coming from French ports: This is altogether a mistake, as I have never given any such information, but quite the reverse—That they have given orders not to bring them in, unless they have French property on board, or are strongly suspected of having such property.
EBENEZER WHEELWRIGHT.
MAY 29.
Extract of a letter from a gentleman in Lisbon, dated 3d April, 1795, to Messrs. J. Calbraith, & Co.
"Yesterday Mr. Church received an express from Cadiz, informing him of the Dey of Algiers having declared war against Spain, also of an action taking place in the Mediterranean between the French and English, in which the former lost two ships of the line, although the day before they had taken one from the English. The fleets consisted of 14 sail of the line each.
"The Portuguese have ordered all their ships, except one ship of the line, 2 frigates, and 2 brigs, to be paid off and hauled up—this is supposed to be owing to the death of the Minister of Marine, which happened about ten days since, and by which, the English have lost almost the only friend they had in this kingdom."
NEW-YORK, May 21.
NAVAL ENGAGEMENT.
The brig James, Capt. Morris, arrived this morning in 17 days from St. Croix. Capt. Morris, in lat. 37, 28, off Cape Henry, was witness to the engagement said to have taken place on Saturday last, between two English frigates and five French ships.
Capt. Morris, was about 2 leagues distant from the engagement. The following is an abstract of the minutes Capt. M. had made upon his log-book.
Saturday, March 16—being then in lat. 37, 28, long. 73, at 5 P. M. 5 sail of vessels were in sight, standing about N. W. supposed to be French; at the same time was boarded by a boat from the frigate Thetis, which was then heaving out signals to a British frigate, about a league to the southward, shortly after the spoke her, when they both bore down upon the French ships, which had formed a line; they engaged the sternmost first, and proceeded on to the 4th ship, when after engaging her for some time, the others scattered—both of the English frigates continued to play upon the Frenchman until 12, when they had carried away his mizen mast, they then sheared off for about 15 minutes, to repair their rigging. The Thetis, then stood to the southward, after one of the French ships, which struck shortly after she came up with her: The other British frigate again bore down upon the disabled ship, and fired several broadsides into her, by which her main and mizen masts were carried by the board, after which the firing ceased.
The other three ships, it is probable escaped, as they were standing to the N. E. and were about 4 leagues distant.
Capt. Morris supposes that they must have burnt one of the French ships, as in the evening he observed considerable smoke to the southward.
Capt. Turner, just arrived from St. Thomas's,
informs, that off the Capes of Virginia, a French frigate was taken by the British frigate Thetis, and the Lynx sloop of war, after an action of three glasses. The French frigate was totally dismasted before the truck. Capt. T. supposes the frigate to be from the West-Indies: She had four merchantmen under convoy, one of which was also taken. The Lieutenant of the Thetis, was on board Capt. Turner, when the French frigate hove in sight; and, as our informant saw the action, and the frigate strike, we have no reason to doubt the truth of the account.
Capt. Thomas, of the ship Jay, from Curacao, on the 27th April, off the west end of Porto Rico, fell in with five French store-ships, which mounted from 20 to 24 guns.
Capt. Thomas, could not learn from whence they came, but supposed from what they told him they were bound to some part of the United States.
We imagine the above vessels are the same which the British frigates engaged off Cape Henry.
BOSTON, May 27.
OF PEACE.
Some of the passengers in Capt. SCOTT, are of opinion, that a peace will be concluded this year. On what date they found that opinion, we are not able to state. The majority in the English Parliament, in favor of the war, is not diminished—and the monied and landed interests appear firm in its support. The most active preparations for equipping a formidable navy, were prosecuting; and stocks had not fallen any considerably for some months. On the other hand, though Peace on honorable terms, appears to be the wish of the French Convention, they are nevertheless recruiting their numerous armies, equipping navies, and sending squadrons on remote expeditions. The Germanic Powers, also, are augmenting their forces.
Mr. Fox in the British House of Commons, asserts, that Prussia had actually made Peace with France, yet there is no official information on the subject. The death of the Prussian negotiator in Switzerland, may have retarded such an event.
FROM SPAIN.
We have reports, that the twelve Millions of dollars, lately assessed by the king of Spain, on his clergy, as already mentioned in the Centinel, is appropriated towards purchasing a Peace with France. The authority on which this information is said to be bottomed, is that of the British Consul, at Cadiz.
OF BARRERE, AND CO.
Our accounts direct from France, are as late as March 24—Those via England, are only to the 16th—The former contain the intelligence we have hitherto announced, of the accusation of the committee of twenty-one, against Barrere, Collot de Herbois, &c. which took place on the 22d March.—Other accounts mention their condemnation, and execution:—But on these last we do not rely.
The celebrated Abbe SEYES is in the Executive Commission of France. He is the author of the French Declaration of Rights, and of a pamphlet in opposition to Mr. Paine. He was an advocate for the Constitution of 1791.
We have read the speech of Mr. Fox on the 24th March, "on the state of the British nation," as reported in the English papers. It is extremely lengthy, and although such, as to draw from Mr. PITT, an eulogium, that it was "one of the most eloquent speeches ever delivered in Parliament," yet we see little in it, except what relates to Ireland, that we have not already given in his former speeches on the subject of the present war. As usual, he surveys the conduct of the present ministry, and proves their turpitude and incapacity.
European Intelligence
By the late arrivals, SCOTT and CUNNINGHAM, is to the 3d of April—From papers by these arrivals, the Editors are enabled to give their readers this day, a copious detail of Events in the old World.
Prussia, it seems means to supply the place of Russia in the combination against the French Republic—Germany wishes to follow the example of Prussia—as the French are rapidly passing in to that country—and in all probability Hanover will soon be subject to their power—In England affairs are in a very distressing situation—Provisions very scarce, and fearful apprehensions are entertained of a Famine throughout that unfortunate country.
Pitt, and his party, are determined to carry on the war, which in all probability will end in the total annihilation of at least, the present corrupt government, if it does not give a fatal stab to monarchy in general.
On the whole, from what we are able to collect from the papers and letters by these arrivals, we can assure our numerous readers, that the cause of Democratic Republicanism is gaining ground in the world with a rapidity hitherto unknown. And we hope soon to announce that the British possess a Government founded on the eternal basis of universal Liberty and social Equality; at present they are in a very deplorable situation.
From NEW-YORK, May 22.
An affair of but little movement in itself, has occasioned considerable alteration here. Some French and American Republicans lately erected a new cap of Liberty in the Coffee room of the Tontine, entwined by the American and French flags. On the morning of the 19th, somebody went into the room, broke the lamps under the Cap, and tore the French flag. It is charged to a Mr. WILLIAM ANDERSON, lately from England, and a reward of 150 dol-
lars is advertised for apprehending him. This has raised some ill blood—a number of Frenchmen, resenting the insult, have attacked the chamber of a Mr. CODD, a British officer, took his regimental coat, brought it down, and tore it to pieces!

MARINE INTELLIGENCE.
Ship Minerva, Scott, from London: April 6, off the Lizard, spoke ship Ark, from New-York, for Havre, 42 days out. April 8, 30 leagues W. of Scilly, fell in with three British frigates, under Sir J. Pellow, who sent an officer on board the Minerva, who behaved politely, and said they were cruising for three French frigates which had been seen off Scilly. [Probably those spoke with by Capt. Cunningham.] April 25, lat. 43, long. 30, spoke ship George, of Bolton, Treat; 30 days from Hull, for New-York. April 25, lat. 38, long. 35, spoke schooner Industry, Sargeant, 32 days from Nantz, and ship Fame, Haliburton, 32 days from Liverpool for Boston. May 17, lat. 41, long. 59, spoke brig St. John, Hilton, 57 days from Cadiz for Salem.
Capt. Scott and Cunningham both met with heavy gales on the coast.
MAY 8.
Was spoke the Adventure of Portsmouth, from Leogane—all hands sick, but one.
The Hannah, Adams, of Salem, has arrived at Baltimore from Port-de-Paix.
Commodore Ford, on the West-India station, has bid the American Captains to tell Judge Green, of Bermuda, from him, "that he was a d—d rascal for his conduct in condemning American vessels, and had acted unauthorized."
The French ships taken by the Thetis and Hussar, are said to be the Peruviane of 40 guns, armed en flute. She fought 26 guns—the other was a 32.
SALE M, May 25.
On the 9th of Feb. Citizen Adams, Minister of the United States, having informed the states that several Captains of American vessels were unwilling to submit to the inspection required in the ports of Holland, the Assembly resolved to enjoin upon the Port Officers to inspect at discretion all vessels, and to arrest all persons found without passports, and ordered that a copy of this proclamation should be given to citizen Adams, and all the ministers of the neutral powers.
Capt. John Dennis, in the schooner Edward, in 48 days from Bilboa, arrived on Sunday afternoon, at Marblehead.—He informs that it was currently reported that the Algerines were about declaring war with Spain. Off Bilboa, Capt. Dennis passed 6 English frigates, and was boarded by one of them; the Captain of which informed, that they were stationed there in consequence of a meditated naval attack expected from the French.
PORTSMOUTH, June 2.
Copy of a letter received by Joseph Wilson, Esq. Consul to the United States of America, in Dublin, from Thomas Pinckney, Esq. Envoy at the Court of London.
London, March 18, 1795.
SIR,
I have this day received information from our Consul at Gibraltar, that the cruisers of MULY SOLIMAN of Morocco, have been authorized by him to capture the vessels of the United States. This intelligence is confirmed by a letter from Mr. Fox, our Consul at Falmouth, who has been informed by the same Packet, that the cruisers of MULY SOLIMAN will leave Salce, and cruise as far as the Maderias as soon as the weather favors them. You will therefore, Sir, be pleased to make the contents hereof known to the Masters of all our vessels within your department, and if there should be any vessel bound immediately to any port in the United States, be pleased to forward the intelligence to the Collector of the Customs at such Port. I am, &c. &c.
(Signed) THOMAS PINCKNEY. Mr. Wilson Consul of the United States of America, Dublin.
MENTOR is received, and shall have a place in the Gazette of Tuesday next.
