NATIONAL CONVENTION.
15 Floreal, May 4.
THE FEMALE CITIZENS of Neuilly were admitted to the bar. The Speaker thus addressed the Convention.—“The female citizens of Neuilly, constantly animated with the love of their country, are this day come to swear to you, that they are all determined to make salt-petre, to cultivate the land, and to reap the harvest. They will themselves send their husbands, their lovers, and their brothers to fight against tyrants and their slaves—say you the word, and they depart. We likewise declare to you, that we will consider as a coward, and traitor to his country, every citizen, who shall hesitate for a moment to fly to the field of honor. In fine, we swear to you, if you shall have need for our arms, give but the signal, and forgetting our sex, we will immediately set out. In order to fight well nothing is necessary but courage; and the love of liberty is the sure passport to victory. We ought to imitate you—You have taught us how to sacrifice life for liberty and equality, and we shall esteem ourselves happy to perish in their defence.”
The young scholars of Rennes congratulated the Convention on their labours, invited them to remain at their posts, and requested a decree to put in requisition, all the youths, from ten to eighteen, to fight the English.
BERLIN, June 13.
[The following is the Account of the Victory gained by the Prussian Troops, combined with a Corps of Russians, near Scelze, on the 6th inst. over Koscioszko's Army.]
On the 5th inst. at noon, the Cossacks reported, that the enemy advanced against them with about 600 men, and had thrown back the Advanced Posts. We considered this only as a reconnoitering attempt, but, to be prepared for all events, the King gave orders for all the Troops to hold themselves in readiness to march. At six o'clock in the evening, General Denizow brought word, that the Enemy were approaching in force to Przebick, where they had taken station, and been already joined by General Kruczow, stationed near Molezice. The King then immediately assembled the Generals, and gave the necessary dispositions. The enemy's position was in three orders on a height resembling stories; [N. B. The enemy sent to oppose our attacks by detachments, and the masses of Peasants penetrated sometimes to the distance of fifteen yards from our Batteries, which mowed them down by heaps]—so that they could only be discovered and fired upon, one after another. His Majesty therefore ordered the Army to advance, and having himself reconnoitered the Enemy, orders were given strictly to observe the dispositions which had been made, and that the Prussian Army, should take station on the right wing and the Russians on the left.
About nine o'clock, all the Russians left their Camp to draw up on the wing, while the Prussians did the same on the right. At eleven o'clock they were all in order of battle, and the ground being a little too narrow for our Troops, it afforded us an opportunity to bring our Cavalry, which became useless on the left wing, to the right, and to place the echelon of the left wing, as a second order of battle, behind the right. The first discharge of cannon were heard on our part precisely at half past eleven o'clock, directed upon the village of Sprotowa, situated before the front and left wing of the the Enemy who had stationed one battalion and two pieces of cannon on it. The battalion of Ewald, and the cannon of the Van, attacked and carried the village; after which the attack was immediately made upon the enemy's left wing by the battalions composing the Van, and supported by the Regiment of Kinckowstroem. This attack succeeded perfectly, and the whole Line, both Prussians and Russians, followed the first attack, en echelon; and though the enemy were stationed in three Lines, they were all thrown back. What greatly facilitated these attacks, was, that the King ordered the battalions in the second order of battle, with the whole of the Cavalry, to march constantly straight forwards, by which manœuvre the enemy's flank was always more and more annoyed. The action itself lasted till three o'clock in the afternoon, when the enemy entirely be-
took themselves to flight. The whole Prussian Army advanced as far as Scelze, where His Majesty ordered them to halt, and sent some Cossacks and a few squadrons of Hussars, besides some Russian Infantry, in pursuit of the enemy.
WARSAW, June 2.
THE leaders of the revolution in 1791, who have been out of the country some time, and called themselves the society of liberty and equality, having retained a famous advocate with the French Convention as their charge des affaires, the same person is now appointed envoy to France, with full powers by the new national council, and is charged to exert all his interest to procure a pardon for the Polish princess Lubomirska, who has been sentenced to die but been respited on account of her pregnancy. His credentials are signed by all the members of the council, and sealed with the great seal. The object of this embassy is requested as a token of friendship towards the republic of Poland. With respect to military affairs the whole city has undergone a new division: the guard at the palace is kept by none but the municipal adjutants at present.—One of these officers, besides accompanying the king all day, sleeps in the same room at night.—The king has neither influence nor agency in the affairs of the nation; and with respect to the military movements he is not permitted even to ask questions. It has been signified to him, that on condition of his silence in this particular, he may be assured that every mark of respect due to his person shall be observed.—
The trials of accused persons continue before the criminal court, Mr.—M. Kobysauski, with his wife, having resided with the Russians, he is to be hanged; she is to be imprisoned for life, and whipped every good Friday. The whole of Lithuania is in a state of insurrection, which is the more likely to continue as there are no Russian troops in that province, and the Russians are detained in Courland by an insurrection there. The People in Lithuania are exasperated against strangers in General, and have lately apprehended several Russian couriers some of whom they have hanged.
The new national council consists principally of nobles. The President, M. Zackrewski, is confirmed in that office for life: the exclusion of citizens from this council is said to cause much displeasure among the lower orders. From Lowicz it is mentioned that the Russian general Fersen is arrived there to replace baron Ingelfstrom, who goes home in disgrace. Prince Charles of Courland, brother to the duke and his lady, have left Warsaw with a passport; their sons are at Riga, where the empress takes care of their education. The importation and reading of any of the new Polish newspapers in any part of West Prussia is rigorously prohibited by the Russian government.
PITTSBURG INSURRECTION.
BALTIMORE, Aug. 16.
Extract of a letter from Fort Pitt.
“We are all in confusion at present, owing to the late contest with Gen. Neville; the wild Irish have assumed the reins, and have threatened to shoot every man who may not choose to oppose the old, in hopes to establish a new government. Brackridge, Gallatin and Smile are spoken of for chiefs, and it is reported that Gen. Simcoe is to supply arms and ammunition. I have been ordered to depart within 24 hours, as being a suspected person. The violent acts which have marked the beginning of these troubles will soon end the contest, provided government oblige these people to embody in defence of their ringleaders. They are afraid of our moderation, as they cannot keep together long for want of resources; and it is truly singular to remark, that it is now actually proposed by the insurgents to lay a duty of one dollar a gallon on whiskey, in order to raise a contribution to defend themselves against the moderate excise established by government. I shall be with you in a few days, if possible.”
PHILADELPHIA, August 16.
INDIAN WAR.
Extract of a letter dated Head Quarters, Greenville, June 14.
“The General's dispatches just going off, I have only to acquaint you with our vigorous measures for a campaign, which, we fondly flatter ourselves, will be conducted to the fullest satisfaction to the Union, at least, I dare to pronounce this much, no officers have ever exerted themselves with more assiduity and pains, from our faithful commander, down to the lowest grade, with very few exceptions. Should we be victorious, I promise myself
the felicity of being with you and our mutual friends, on or about Christmas.”
From examining the trail and trails of the Indians, on their retreat from Fort Recovery, on the 1st of July last, it would appear that the Wabash Indians and Patawatimes separated from the others about 12 miles from that place, and took a N.W. direction towards their towns; and about 25 miles, another trail broke off and steered an easterly course, towards Sandusky, supposed to be the Wyandots. By those trails, it would appear, that the Indians were scattering, and that there were from 250 to 300 who went off upon each of those trails; but the main body continued together, and took a direct course for Grand Glaize.
Extract of a letter from London, dated June 17.
“We understand that the convoy from America to France, is arrived safe at L'Orient. Notwithstanding the French lost 7 ships of the line, in the late engagement, they were in force sufficient to chase Admiral Montagne (who had nine sail of the line) into port.”
AUG. 19.
Capt. Eggar in the Schooner Maria arrived at the Port, left St. Mark the 27th July, confirms the account of the massacre at Fort Dauphin, and mentions further, that a few days before he sailed from that place the Brigands had attacked the English fort, with terrible impetuosity, and had been engaged three days constantly. The commander of the British troops had two horses killed under him, and every man in the place was doing military duty, there being but about 100 regular troops, and the Brigands upwards of 6,000 strong. The collector at St. Mark told Capt. Eggar, that he did not think the British would be able to keep that, or any other post on the Islands, and that in a few days an embargo would be laid upon all the vessels in port, to carry off the inhabitants who were preparing to leave the place. Every thing in the Custom-House was already packed up. Many of the American vessels were returning with their cargoes finding it impossible to sell.
From the Star, a London paper, of the 4th of June, 1794.
Of the number of British ships which, within these last six months, have been taken by the French, it would not be easy to give an accurate list; but in that period, it may be relied on as a fact, that our court of admiralty have not condemned more than ten French vessels!
NEW-YORK, August 21.
The American vessels which were under French convoy, and lately captured by Admiral Murray's squadron, and sent into Halifax, we are informed, have been cleared, and are on their return to the ports to which they respectively belong, in ballast:—They retaining their cargoes as legal prizes. The freight of the vessels will be paid by the captors.
BOSTON, August 29.
Extract of a letter from Charleston, Aug. 20.
“The French have obtained two victories over Clairfayt—Clairfayt is mortally wounded.”
“Capt. Crofs, from Bourdeaux, in 37 days, brings news that the Sans Culottes have conducted the king of Sardinia and his two Sons to Paris—Courtray, Menin, Furnes, Ghent, Ypres, and Nieuport, are all taken by the French.”
By the returns made to the office of the Secretary of State, it appears there have been captured by the different Powers engaged in the present war about 307 American vessels, of various descriptions and tonnage—Some condemned and some not.
From GUADALOUPE—Aug. 7.
Yesterday afternoon arrived Capt. Carver, in a Schooner, in 17 days from Guadalupe. He informs that the English had left the blockade of Point-a-Petre, and gone into port, to pass the hurricane months;—That on the 4th August, there was a violent hurricane, which he could scarcely ride out in harbour, altho' he had four anchors out;—That in this hurricane an English fifty gun ship went on shore upon the English part of the Island, and was entirely lost—(the crew he thinks was saved;)—That the French at Point Petre, were guillotining the Aristocrats daily—And, That flattered with their late success, they contemplated an expedition to Marigalante. On his passage home, Capt. Carver was boarded by a privateer, manned entirely with French Aristocrats, from Dominique—
They threatened to make Capt. C. pay 50 dollars for some shot they fired to bring him too, but finally went away without it.
PORTLAND, Aug. 23. DIRECT FROM FRANCE.
Monday last arrived here the brig Harmony, Capt. John Tucker, 53 days from Brest. Capt. Tucker informs that he saw the French channel fleet commanded by Admiral Villaret arrive at Brest, after the battle, consisting of nineteen ships of the line, and frigates—he likewise saw the Chesapeake convoy arrive, consisting of 127 sail, among them 17 valuable prizes. By him we learn that the cause of the loss of the seven French ships, was owing principally to the misconduct or illjudgment of some of the captains, five of (which being the van guard ships) fell out of the line at the commencement of the action, whereby the line was broken by the English admiral, and confusion followed. The heat of the action was consequently sustained by nineteen ships only of the French fleet. La Revolutionnaire being in the rear, was engaged the day preceding the action, by two ships of the English and disabled, that Admiral Villaret sent a 74 to tow her off, and they afterward arrived at Brest. Le Montagnard likewise parted with the fleet the night preceding the action, in a fog, and having fell in with the Chesapeake fleet, returned to Brest.—The captains of the five ships which did not engage, were arrested for trial on their arrival at Brest.
The following is an accurate list of the Fleet, as they failed from Brest.
  Le Northumberland Le Tyrannicide  La Montagne Le Jacobin  L'Achille L'Achille  Le Revolutionnaire Le Vengeur  Le Gasperin L'Indomptable  L'Entrepreneur Le Terrible  Le Neptune L'Impetueux  Le Gemmapes L'Eole  Le Trent un Mai Le Mucius  La Convention Le Tourville  Le Republicain Le Pelletier  Le Scipion Le Juste  Le Montagnard.  
The following is translated from a French official publication, received by the above mentioned arrival.
SKETCH.
The Journal of the late cruise of the French grand fleet kept on board the Admiral's ship La Montagne, by Jean Bon St. Andre, one of the committee of Public Safety. It contains 66 pages, from which it appears that the grand object of the cruise was to favor the safe arrival of the Chesapeake fleet, wherein it was attended with compleat success. St. Andre complains of the unskilfulness of many officers in the fleet, and of the absolute misbehaviour of several ships. He says that it was very evident that the English were perfectly acquainted with the French signals, and could understand and oppose every manœuvre that was directed. He says that the English fleet in line of battle was 28, besides several ships in reserve. It seems that La Jacobin, commanded by citizen Gassin, which was immediately in the rear of La Montagne in the action, by some blunder fell out of the line to leeward, and gave Lord Howe an opening to break the French line, which he did, and with one broadside from his own ship that raked La Montagne fore and aft, killed above an hundred men. La Montagne was part of the time engaged by 5 or 6 ships, and was two hours invisible to the frigates of the fleet.
The battle continued five hours—There were 17 ships in both fleets entirely dismasted, besides such as had part of a mast standing. St Andre says the English fleet was in a worse condition than the French, and that if they had not had the weather gage many of their ships would have been carried off by the Republicans. La Montagne alone had 300 killed and many badly wounded, and scarce a man in the ship unhurt. St. Andre says that the Montagne received 233 shot in her hull, besides a great number in her masts, spars, sails and rigging. For the future, Jean St. Andre thinks it will be best on every account that the Admiral's flag should be hoisted on board a frigate, as it is impossible to give or receive general orders while the Admiral's is so closely engaged.
The following is a translation of the concluding paragraph of this Journal.
“The 22d Praireal, we made Bee du Raz, and the next day the fleet moored in the road of Bertheume.—Happily the convoy arrived from the United States and moored the next day, and after a severe campaign we had the pleasure to see we had saved it. It could hardly have escaped without us. A fleet of 36 sail

waited for it upon the line of its course—twelve more were ready to intercept it, if it escaped the English grand fleet—and twelve sail of Spanish ships cruised off Cape St. Vincent to bar the passage of the convoy should it go southward of the Azores. We rendered all abortive, and should have done yet better if all had done their duty.”
JEAN BON ST. ANDRE.
About the middle of June, there was a decisive battle fought between the French and Spaniards, the latter were entirely routed, after a most dreadful slaughter. One Corps de reserve of 7,500 men have laid down their arms, and surrendered themselves prisoners to the French General Dugoumier, who after obtaining this victory, took his way towards Barcelona.
The French are no less successful in Biscay, the Western extremity of Spain.
On the Rhine, the Republicans are making continual progress, being masters of all the country in the neighbourhood of Mannheim, Spires and Mayence, threatening their towns and keeping the enemy scattered.
In Flanders, they are masters of all the West, as far as the river Scheldt on which they surprised on the 18th June, a considerable convoy belonging to the enemy, of which they destroyed what they could not take along with them. They laid their head-quarters at Courtray, and cover all the country from Tournay, to the environs of Ostend—which was said to be taken and the port destroyed—6000 Austrians, it is said, were made prisoners.
As soon as the French take possession of any conquest, they seize upon all public property, which they send to Lisle as a reserve, to pay the expenses of the war. They lay a heavy ransom upon the wealthy inhabitants, from whose treachery they have so severely suffered.
The King of Prussia declared last March, to the combined powers, that he could not bear any longer the whole expense of his forces, in a war which was not personal to him. In consequence of which the King of England took 30,000 into pay on his own account, and Austria took the like number into pay. The King of Prussia left his army to repair to the Southern provinces, to prevent the progress of the Polish revolution. This revolution takes a favorable turn to the cause of liberty. They have entirely routed the Russians, and annihilated the Russian army in Poland.—This affair was conducted with the greatest secrecy, when Poland appeared entirely calm and unmoved.
France has been rather unsuccessful in her fleet by sea; but so successful in taking prizes, so much so, that the French ports are absolutely swarming with them. European produce and goods of all kinds, as well as of the East and West-Indies, are excessively collected in the French ports—and a foreigner, to view this astonishing collection of all kinds of merchandise, &c. would think France the emporium of the world. A rich Dutch convoy of 26 merchantmen, and a frigate have also arrived in French ports.
The engagement with the English fleet, has been dreadful to the utmost, on both sides they rather discovered fury than courage—the French were 26, out of which seven were not engaged; the Montagnard left the fleet the day before the battle, and joined the Chesapeake convoy. The English had 32 ships of the line, 8 of which were three deckers—the French had but 3 of this description in the engagement. The French Vanguard kept at distance, and executed hardly any of their orders; owing either to inability in the commanding officers, or to the want of patriotism; the former is most likely the case.
According to the account given by the Commissioner on board the Admiral's ship, had the Vanguard executed their orders, not only the disabled ships of the French, but those of the English, must have fallen as prizes to the French—for it is a fact, that the English ceased the first, and retreated from the line to about 4 miles from the field of action, and the French Admiral notwithstanding having given orders to the Vanguard ships to tow out of the line the disabled ships, did not, or would not execute the order, thereby obliging the Admiral to leave five of their ships on the field of action, which were afterwards towed off by the English—1 French sunk—3 of the English met with the same fate. One of the French ships went down most honorably—the Queen Charlotte, seeing her disabled situation, ran along side, and bid him surrender;
almost the whole crew of the Queen Charlotte was on deck, huzzing at the expected surrender of this ship; her lower ports being then to the water's edge, the upper deck guns were loaded with a double charge grape shot and langrage and discharged, which shattered the Queen very considerably, and killed many of her men. The ship went down with all her officers and men, crying to the last moment “Vive la Republique”.—One of the French ships was towed out of the line by a Corvette Brig.
Another circumstance which is a fact—The English made directly for port—the French kept at sea, until they were sure of the safety of the convoy.
Twenty-six ships of the line failed from Brest; of which 19 returned.
BOSTON, August 30.
LATEST FROM GUADALOUPE.
By a gentleman who yesterday arrived in town from the island of Guadaloupe, we learn, that the French continue in possession of Point-Petre; and that the English still hold Basseterre, and a port in the vicinity of Point-Petre: That each appeared fearful of the other, and that it was the general opinion that whatever party was first reinforced, would be masters of the whole island: That Admiral Jervis was cruising to and from Martinico, and that the French planters of the islands subdued by the English, were ill treated; being forced to do the duty of private soldiers.
NEWBURY-PORT, Aug. 23.
Yesterday arrived in this port, in 48 days from Rotterdam, the ship Mary, Edmund Wingate, Master, by which we are enabled to present our readers with the following
Important News,
Copied from Rotterdam papers from June 19 to July 8, brought by Captain Wingate.
Extracts from the Papers.
June 19. Surrendered to the French arms the town of Ypres; the garrison surrendered prisoners of war, all private property was sacred. The night preceding the surrender of the above place, the garrison offered to capitulate on condition that the French would allow them to send out two waggons unsearched, and liberty for the emigrants to march out unmolested, which the French refused, and on surrender of the garrison 500 emigrants fell victims to Republican rage.
June 26. This day, report says, that the French had taken Ghent, and the people at Ostend was preparing to leave the place, and that all Flanders was in danger.
June 29. This day, report says, that Ostend is taken by the French, and burnt. A number of people landed here this day from Antwerp, and other places that was not in possession of the French.
July 1. This day 3 or 400 emigrants arrived here from Flanders, who seem'd to be in a sad state, without much baggage, which shews their flight was precipitate, and some of them said that it was impossible for the combined armies to face the French.
July 4th. This day report says that the French have taken Mons, and that the combined armies had evacuated Valenciennes.
July 5th. This day Report says, that the French had taken Brussels, and was besieging Sluys. Some pieces of Shells which the French hove into Sluys was brought here. An Emigrant from Brussels told here, that it would be impossible for all the Combined Powers to face the French, for by their requisition they brought into the field 240,000 men.
July 7th. This day Report says, that the Emperor of Germany was on the point of entering into a treaty with the French, and that the French had taken Sluys.
The English say, that the King of Prussia has used them very ill, after paying him 60 tons of silver for troops he did not send them, but kept them to guard his own territories. The affairs between Prussia and Poland, the accounts of which are various—report says, that the Poles had lost a battle.
July 8th. This evening Report says, that there had been a hard battle near Brussels, between the armies; the French were victorious, 40,000 men lay dead on the Field.
August 30.
Two Algerine gentlemen came passengers in the Mary: As various reports are in circulation respecting their visiting this country, for the satisfaction of our rea-
ders, we have obtained the following account from a gentleman who has conversed with them. Eight years since one of them commanded a frigate in the service of the Dey, and being taken by three Neapolitan frigates, it was dangerous for them to return to Algiers: they have since been travelling in different parts of Europe, and have recommendations from some very respectable characters there. They will in a few days proceed on to Philadelphia.
On Thursday last arrived here the Schooner Sally, Capt. Baker, in 23 days from Guadaloupe. Capt. Baker, on his passage, was brought too by an English sloop of war, 14 days from N. York, who, after examining his papers, &c. suffered him to proceed.
Yesterday arrived in this port, Schooner Nymph, Beniah Titcomb, master, 27 days from St. Anns. Capt. T. informs that the French are in high spirits at Guadaloupe, and plenty of every thing to make the English dance to the tune of Carmagnole.
(Thus stands the translation from Rotterdam, which, is “the centre of aristocracy,” the news, being favorable to France, may, therefore, we believe, be principally depended on, independently of the confirmation which follows.)
CONFIRMATION.
From M c Lean's (New-York) Paper.
NEW-YORK, AUG. 27.
Yesterday afternoon arrived here, after a passage of 50 days from London, the ship Mohawk, Capt. Allen,
By this arrival, papers have been received to the 4th July. They contain an account of the taking of Charleroi by the French, and the evacuation of Ostend, at which place Lord Moira had landed 8000 men, but was obliged to take them on board again—so that there is not a doubt but the French have taken possession of it.—That the French have taken several other places. That on the 26th of June, the combined armies, under the command of the Duke of York and Prince of Orange, in an attempt to relieve Charleroi, proved unsuccessful, and were driven back to Brussels, with great loss, and, that in general, the French “carried all before them.”—The London Gazette accounts of the above; we shall lay before our readers to-morrow.
MOR. PARTICULAR.
[From Greenleaf's Journal of the same date.]
Late last evening arrived at this port, the ship Mohawk, Capt. Allen, in 50 days from London, and the ship Prudence, Capt. Palmer, in 45 days from London-derry.
Capt. Palmer was so obliging as to conduct the Editor on board (in the stream) late in the evening, and to supply him with his latest papers, from which we shall give full details in the second JOURNAL EXTRA, to be issued about noon, this day.
In the mean time we cannot omit extracting the few following paragraphs from the Northern Star of July 7, as a foretaste of the approaching feast:—
LONDON, July 1.
[From the Courier.]
“Early on the morning of the 26th a general attack was made on all the French posts. The conflict was one of the most obstinate, that has taken place since the commencement of the war. It lasted until late in the afternoon, when the allied army, BEATEN IN EVERY PART, were forced to RETREAT with all their cannon to Halle, which is almost 30 miles distant from the field of battle.
“The consequences of the defeat are obvious. Charleroi immediately surrendered, and the French, pushing on to Brussels, have it is said, reduced the Prince of Cobourg to the necessity of retreating from Halle, and of leaving Brussels to its fate.
“The governor and the principal persons had removed to Antwerp on the day after the battle.
“Last night, we have reason to believe, that accounts were received by government of the EVACUATION of BRUSSELS, which, it is supposed, is now in the possession of the French.
“It would be absurd to deny, that the Duke of York is in a perilous situation. His position at Renaix, is defended by a wood in front, and another in the rear, but his force does not amount to more than 12000 men, and the enemy in
immense numbers are in front, on one of his flanks, and in the rear.
“The garrisons of Valenciennes, Conde, and Queency, are, it is said to be withdrawn, and these places given up to the enemy.
“All communication with Ghent and Bruges, being now cut off, our letters contain only intelligence relative to Ostend. From that town the Earl of Moira has marched for the purpose of endeavoring to effect a junction with Gen. Clairfayt, who, it was supposed, would be again attacked by the French before his Lordship could reach him.”
The following HASTY VIEW, with the above, must serve to alleviate the patience of our readers until noon.
After the surrender of Ypres, of which we have before related, to preserve Charleroi (an advantageous post) the 5 combined armies attempted to form a junction, being severally commanded by Cobourg, Orange, Clairfayt, Beaulieu, and York—in this critical moment, before the junction was completed, the left of Pichegru attacked the right of the enemy in plain field, when a most tremendous conflict ensued; the enemy's right soon gave way—at that instant a general attack commenced, and, after a carnage which is not recorded in history, for three successive days, the whole combination of despots took to their heels for Brussels, where our accounts leave them in the utmost consternation, preparing for a more secure retreat. The Duke of York however, seems to be sneaking into Holland, by the Scheldt, not having been able, or willing, to join—Cobourg, Clairfayt, and Beaulieu stood the brunt. Charleroi was taken on the 27th—Ostend was evacuated, and a detachment of patriots ordered to take possession of it. Gen. Beaulieu was killed—the slaughter was immense—it was said the enemy were 170,000 strong, and the Republicans 250,000. The Mohawk and Prudence have each 120 passengers.

SONG.
At the close of harvest.
WITH thankful hearts and cheerful voice, Let all thy nymphs and swains rejoice, And singing merry make; The plenteous harvest now secure, Let old and young the pleasures pure, Of rural life partake.  The barn's now fill'd with hay and grain, To spend when storms of snow and rain, Wide devastation brings; Each brent let gratitude possess, Each willing soul forever blest The giver of good things.  Set round the board like christian Friends, Let us partake what heaven sends, The produce of the earth; Let foreign spirits ne'er intrude, To make us angry, rough, or rude, And poison all our mirth.  The jovial song and lively dance, The joy of human life advance, Let no one then be sad; Why with dull superstition's cloud, Should we the Almighty's image shroud, When scripture bids be glad?  Then let the hardy jovial swain, That lately mow'd the flow'ry plain, Unbend himself a while; And Susan quit her spinning wheel, And join to dance the country reel, Forgetting all her toil.  The contemplative mind of age, And sedate philosophic age, Will join the festive band: While music's most enchanting sound, And joy and virtue dance around, Forever hand in hand.
