Our august Sovereign is again ill—the day before yesterday his Majesty was seized with a fever, which continued for twenty-four hours. He suffers greatly from an obstructed respiration.
They write from Croatia, that on the 12th of April, 1000 Turkish cavalry attacked a post of the Banat—five villages belonging to the Bosnians, which were under the imperial protection, experienced the fury of the enemy; all the men were immediately put to the sword, 104 women and boys, 6000 horned cattle, 108 horses, and 507 goats were carried off, and three small towns all burnt to ashes.
The enemy, after this, retired to the village of Pograzi, where they sold the booty to the best bidders—a
Turk purchased two women and four children for 600 florins.
H A M B U R G H, May 29.
We learn from Peterburgh, that the ice with which the river Neva was covered, entirely disappeared on the 30th of last month; the river had been frozen one hundred and sixty four days.
P A R I S, May 7.
On Tuesday last about twelve of the clock at noon, his Majesty opened the Assembly of the States-General, by a speech from the throne, which was received with loud acclamations. The Queen was seated near the King, on his left hand; Monsieur, and the Compte de Artois, at a small distance on the right; Madame, and Madame Elizabeth (his Majesty's sisters) with Mesdame's Victor and Adelaide (his Majesty's aunts) on the left hand behind the Queen. The other Princes of the blood, with some Dukes and Peers, were also on the right; the Marshals of France, with others of the same rank, were on the left; Garde des Sceaux were also on the left, and the other great officers of state were on the right of the throne. The Duc d'Orleans, who is the only Prince of the blood, chosen deputy to the States General, took his seat as such amongst the nobility. The Ministers were seated close under the platform on which the throne was placed. As soon as his Majesty had finished his speech, the Garde des Sceaux and Monsieur Necker, addressed his Majesty and the assembly; and at about four o'clock in the afternoon, the King rose from his seat, and adjourned the meeting to the following day.
L O N D O N, May 25.
A catastrophe no less disastrous than that of the ingenious Captain Cook has happened to the navigators sent out for the purpose of making discoveries, by order of the French Court. Of the misfortune of the squadron, the Dutch mail, which arrived on Saturday afternoon, gives the following account, with a certainty that leaves no room to doubt of their authenticity.
“The Marquis de Peyrouse, a seaman of great ability was entrusted with the command of this fleet of discovery, assisted by the English Government with the maps, charts, &c. of the much lamented Captain Cook, in order to facilitate his researches. He sailed from France in the year 1785, in the Boffale frigate accompanied by M. de Langle, in the Astrolabe frigate, with two transports loaded with stores, provisions and other necessaries. During their voyage they had been successful in a great degree until at length reaching the Navigator's Island. M. de Langle, with ten of his crew and six soldiers, went on shore for the purpose of making observations; on their landing the natives shewed every friendly disposition, in which the unhappy mariners had too much confidence, for no sooner were they in their power, than their perfidy was made visible, and on a concerted signal, the whole party was surrounded by the savages, who inhumanly butchered ten of them, among whom was M. de Langle; the others, being well armed, reached the ships with difficulty, to carry the melancholy tidings to their comrades.—The men thus sacrificed to a thirst of knowledge were first roasted, and then devoured by the savages in sight of their companions, whose situation rendered them incapable of avenging the wrongs of their unfortunate countrymen,

We have the pleasure to inform the public, that the commissioners of the Union for Indian affairs are now in this state, and that all the arrangements for the treaty are in motion towards Rock Landing, where it is expected near 3000 Indians will attend, with all the chiefs of the nation. P H I L A D E L P H I A, Aug. 8.
It is said, that the Indians are encouraged in their depredations on our frontiers, by the British stationed in the Western Posts:—If so, while they remain there, we may never expect peace with their copper-coloured allies.—Hence the necessity of the adoption of coercive measures for the recovery of these posts.
The loss to the United States, from the British holding the Western Posts—to say nothing of the disgrace of it—in the article of Fur alone, is nearly 100,000. per ann. The exports of furs from Quebeck, last year, amounted to above 150,000. sterling.
B O S T O N, Aug. 19.
Capt. Pigeon, who arrived here on Saturday last, in the Brig Constance, from St. Peters, brought part of the crew of the ship—Capt. Spence, which had foundered at sea.—She was loaded with tobacco from Virginia, bound to London. The crew saved themselves in the boat which arrived at St. Peters twelve days after the ship foundered.
P O R T L A N D, August 14.
By several observations taken by various persons on the 7th inst. the latitude of the most southerly point of Cape-Elizabeth was ascertained to be 43 deg. 34 min. 33 sec. north; from which the bearing of the light house is N. 5 deg. W.—distance 4 1/2 miles. The variation of the compass 10 deg. West.
P O R T S M O U T H, August 20.
A most outrageous tumult, says a late European paper, has happened at Barcelona, in Spain, in consequence of the high price of bread. On the first of April, a very numerous mob began to set fire to the town magazines where the corn is deposited. Having finished here, they burnt two houses belonging to the principal corn-dealers, besides some others.
A letter from Bristol, via Philadelphia.
“A bill is brought into Parliament to regulate the corn and flour import and export trade, and which is expected to pass into a law, and by its great difficulties are expected to attend the importation of these articles, of which I deem it right to advise you, lest by the account I gave, you should be induced to export and be a loser.”

Schooner stop'd!
 TAKEN and brought into the harbour of Narragugus and now in the hands of the subscriber, Naval-Officer for the port of Gouldsborough, a PINK STERN'D SCHOONER, upwards of twenty tons burthen, having one man on board, who calls himself by the name of James Over; the vessel is something out of repair in her sails and rigging—no painted, and bare of stuff, one short cable about 70 fathom long, and one anchor, some fishing lines, but no leads;—said James Over had no papers, nor has any been found on board said vessel, except a Register; it appears by the Register, the schooner was built at Almsbury, in the county of Essex, in 1781, was registered at Beverly the fifth day of July, A. D. 1787, Jos. Batchelder, Naval-Officer,—it further appears by said Register, that James Obem of said Beverly, and Ephraim Ally, were then owners of said schooner, and Jacob Very, master.—The man that was in the schooner and brought in, is a fair faced well set person, poorly clothed, nor was there the value of one dollar found on board—on examination he says, he was born at Old-York, and now lives in Shelburne, Nova-Scotia, from which place he came about five weeks ago a passenger, with a Captain Bowin to Boston, that he bought the said schooner from the before mentioned Ephraim Ally at Plymouth, that he gave 140 dollars for her, that he was bound to said Shelburne with the vessel, that he had a Partner when he sailed from Plymouth, whose name was Burns, whom he met with in Boston, and that two or three days before he was bro't in, the said Burns was lost overboard. From all those circumstances it is supposed he has run away with said schooner; in consequence, said man and vessel will be secured until some further proof of his innocence appears.  ALEX. CAMPBELL, Naval-Officer Gouldsborough, July 27, 1789.
