Treasury of the United States,
August 24th, 1795. NOTICE is hereby given to all persons who are or may be creditors of the United States, for any sums of the funded debt, or stock, bearing a present interest of six per centum per annum.
 1st. That pursuant to an act of Congress, passed on the third day of March, 1795, intitled, "An act making further provision for the support of public credit, and for the redemption of the public debt," there will be reimbursed and redeemed, on the first day of January ensuing, the rate or proportion of two per centum of the principal of the debt or stock, expressed in the certificates issued to the said creditors respectively.  2d. The said reimbursements will be made at the Treasury of the United States, or at the Loan Offices where the said stock may stand credited at the close of the present year.  3d. The said reimbursements will be made to the said creditors in person, or to their attorneys duly constituted; but the powers of attorney which may be produced must contain an authority to receive the said reimbursement of principal, otherwise no more than the usual dividend of interest will be paid; and although the two per centum of principal to be redeemed, should not be demanded, yet the interest thereon will cease from the said first day of January next. 
4th. To prevent the great trouble and expence which would attend a renewal of the certificates, in consequence of the said reimbursement of principal, it has been determined that no renewal shall be made: And further, that the certificates which may be issued during the year one thousand seven hundred and ninety-six, in consequence of any transfers of the said six per cent. stock, shall notwithstanding the reimbursement of two per centum, as aforementioned, be expressed for the respective sums of the original capital stock. All persons who may negotiate the funded six per cent. stock of the United States, bearing a present interest, are therefore cautioned to observe, that during the year one thousand seven hundred and ninety-six, the value or true amount of principal unredeemed of said debt or stock, will be ninety-eight per centum of the sums expressed in the certificates.
Given under my hand at Philadelphia, the day and year before mentioned, pursuant to directions of the Secretary of the Treasury. SAMUEL MEREDITH, Treasurer of the United States.

BOSTON, Nov. 21.
THE Latest News from Europe
Is by the arrival of Capt. Weeks, from Liverpool—by whom papers are received to October 5.
The contents of the papers which we have received, warrant us in saying, that a Civil War is actually broke out in Paris!
The Section of Brutus, has declared itself in a state of insurrection against the Convention.
The Sovereign Section (as it is filed in a Conventional Journal of Lepelletier) has proclaimed with great solemnity—That it condemns its Civil Committee, for having obeyed the decree which ordered the Proclamation of the acceptance of the constitution, and of the decrees of the 5th and 13th Fructidor, by the French people. The assemblage and procession were numerous; and after this proclamation against the Convention, the air resounded with the cry of "A bas les Deux Tiers!" Down with the Two Thirds!
The decrees for re-electing two-thirds of the Convention, were proclaimed on the 25th Sept. in the streets of Paris, as being adopted by the majority of the people. The utmost pomp and ceremony attended the event; but many of the Primary Assemblies, expressed their indignation on the occasion, and some of them considered the proclamation as a calumny upon the people, as contrary to truth, and, consequently, as not binding to any one.
In fact, it is a most incredible instance of presumption, to impose the will of 160,000 [the number of votes who have accepted the decrees] persons, as a law of 25,000,000 of men. The partisans of the Convention, thus, do not exceed 160,000, and among these must be reckoned the terrorists who have been lately set at liberty.
It was said the Convention had determined to adjourn to Chalon sur Marne, [95 miles East from Paris] in case the insurgent sections were not quelled. That body however, appears firm; and will unquestionably be protected from insult by the numerous troops which it has assembled in the environs of Paris, and who are devoted to its interest. The issue is not easily foreseen; but the intelligence from that quarter will continue for some time to be very interesting.
GENESSE, [10 miles from Paris] Sept. 22. "In several communes of the department of the Seine and Oise, a placard has been just pasted up, shewing to what danger liberty has been exposed for some days past. It is politically stated, "that certain vindictive, and ambitious men, had proposed to transfer the seat of the Convention, to some other place; to declare Paris in a state of rebellion, and to prevent it from receiving provisions; and that the most faithful Representatives of the people, such as Bussy d'Anglais, Henrie Lariviere, Fermon, Lanjuinais, Lefage, Raband Pommier, Pelet, Dussault, &c. were to be proscribed; and the hideous Empire of Terror re-established.
"This is a sufficient explanation of the measures pursued in our neighbourhood; this is the reason Lyons has been surrounded with troops, and Nantes and Rouen delivered up to the terrorists; that pikets of cavalry have been stationed for some days on the roads leading to Paris, that the Post-masters received orders not to let any body have horses; that so many troops have been collected in the environs of Paris, and that the Terrorists and Brigands have been set at liberty."
According to this paper it appears, that they intend, in case it should be found necessary, to employ the troops against the inhabitants of Paris; several men in power, said that with ten squadrons they would reduce the sections to obedience, and that so many heads should be taken off, that those who remained should not dare to make any further resistance.
In the evening sitting of the 3d Vendemaire (Sept. 25.) Delaunay (d'Angers) Reporter to the committee of General Welfare, informed the convention, that several soldiers had been insulted by individuals, and the armed force attacked; three pistols had been discharged in the Garden of equality, where Bertelle, a sergeant of the grenadiers of the convention, was slightly wounded. The cry of "To arms!" was heard in different parts of the metropolis. The exclamation of "Down with the Two thirds!" was also general.
In several of the groupes collected in different places, people observed, that the convention ought to be driven from Paris, otherwise there would be a famine; and that the presence of the Comte d'Artois and the Prince de Lambesc, was necessary for the restoration of order.
Lefage (d'Eure et Loire) read an address to the Parisians, the purport of which was, to render the citizens of Paris, responsible for the safety of the convention; to declare that, if any attempts were made on the persons of the Deputies, the Legislative Body would meet at Chalon sur Marne; and to order the Republican troops to prepare themselves for defending the Representatives of the people.
The address was adopted, and was ordered to be pasted up immediately in form of a proclamation, in every part of the city, and to the armies.
In the sitting of the 4th Vendemaire (Sept. 26.) Larivelliers Lepaux, in the name of the committee of Public Welfare, informed the Convention, that the agents of the Sections had pulled down all the proclamations which had been pasted up by order of Convention during the night. It was therefore decreed, that the administrators of the department of the Seine, should immediately publish in Paris, the proclamation and declaration adopted by the convention, on the preceding night.
TALIEN proposed the establishment of an extraordinary commission of sixteen members of the Convention, to superintend the police of Paris. This proposition gave rise to a long debate, and was at length referred to the Committees.
The President of the section of the Temple, having put in requisition the commander of the armed force of that district, the Convention annulled the order he had issued, and decreed, that all persons who should call out the armed force without an order from the Representatives of the People, should be deemed traitors to their country, and prosecuted as such.
It was also decreed, on the motion of Lavalourneur (de la Manche); that the Administrative Committees of Paris, should take care that all the young men of the first requisition, should immediately join their respective corps; and that every person of that description, who should be found in any group or assemblage of the people, should, without any further proof be deemed a rebel, and treated as such.
LONDON, SEPT. 15.—30. An order of the King in Council, for granting letters of marque and reprisals, against the ships, goods and subjects of the United Provinces, passed the 15th inst.—The Parliament is positively to meet on the 29th October, "for the dispatch of various weighty and important affairs." Twenty-five regiments are actually destined to the West-Indies, each company of which is to be double officered.
The Count d'Artois has safely arrived at Quiberon.—Sir John Wallack, has written to government, that Charette has engaged and completely defeated fourteen battalions of the Republican troops, between Machecoult and Noirmoutier.—Admiral Hervey's squadron has arrived at the Isle of Houat, with the reinforcements, and commodore Warren has established a correspondence with Charette.—A war with Spain is not so likely to happen as some of our countrymen would wish; Lord Bute, our Ambassador at Madrid, having taken a large hotel, and ordered his servants over from England.—Lord Bridport's fleet, which has been so long on the coast of France, has returned to Portsmouth.
Yesterday morning Mr. Hammond, late his Majesty's Minister, to the States of America, arrived in town from Philadelphia: He has brought over with him the ratification of the late treaty, with the exception of one article of it, which remains open for future discussion.
Yesterday forenoon an express was received by a respectable house in the city, stating that the barriers of Paris were shut, and that an embargo had been laid upon all vessels at Calais. These violent measures are supposed to proceed from some fresh commotions at Paris. It seems more than probable that the sections will oblige the Convention either to fly or to revoke the unjust and tyrannical decrees for the re-election of the two-thirds.
Yesterday Mr. Marsh was sent to open a Preliminary Conference with M. M. Monneron and Sernvert, the Commissioners sent to this country by the National Convention.
It may be relied upon, that the regency of Hanover, have by this time, concluded a peace with France; in consequence of which the British troops upon the Continent, will probably return home.
The French continue successful, in an astonishing manner. Since the capture of Dusseldorf, they have proceeded in one direction to Cassel, the capital town of the Landgrave of Hesse-Cassel, in the circle of the Upper-Rhine, 85 miles N. E. of Frankfort, which they are closely investing, after having captured all the towns between that and Dusseldorf. Another division of the army directed its march towards Wetzlar, an imperial city, 28 miles N. of Frankfort. While these important events were effecting by the valor of the conquerors of Dusseldorf, another considerable part of the army passed the Rhine, higher up, and after a short siege captured Mannheim, and immediately Mentz was besieged, with every prospect of its falling as readily to the arms of the French, as the other places which had been attacked. The Austrian armies, after a temporary resistance, retreated from place to place; and had, when our last accounts left them, taken shelter behind Frankfort, on the Mein, from whence they would probably be again obliged to retreat in a few days.
The Austrian General, de Vins, wrote to the Spanish consul, Sept. 18, that after the pacification between his Most Catholic Majesty and France, all Spanish vessels loaded with grain, and whatever provisions of war, which should be destined for France, should be seized and declared lawful prizes. Some explanation on this letter has been demanded of the German Charge d'Affaires.
If we are to judge from appearances, there will be no misunderstanding between our Court and that of Spain. According to dispatches received on Sept. 14, from Lord Bute, at Madrid, his Lordship has taken a large hotel there, and has sent for his family and servants from this country. When Lord Bute went to Spain, it was by no means decided that he would remain there.
Dispatches were received the 15th Sept. at the Admiralty-Office from Commodore Sir John Bourlace Warren, dated Quiberon Bay, Sept. 9, and brought to Plymouth by the Artois frigate, Sir Edwards Nagel. In these dispatches the Commodore states his having received intelligence from La Vendee that in consequence of a grand Council of War held at Naufes by the Republican Generals, all the National Guards of the neighbouring Communes were directed to assemble in that city, in order to cruise the Loire, and make a furious attack on the Vendees. The National Guards having at first declined, and afterwards absolute-
ly refused to participate in a measure merely calculated to cause Frenchmen to massacre each other; the Generals put themselves at the head of the troops of the line, lately arrived from the frontiers, reinforced by some requisition men, and with this force, consisting of about 14 battalions, marched against Charette, who apprised of their intention, advanced to meet them, between Machecoult and Noirmoutier, and attacked and defeated the Republican army with such slaughter, that scarce four battalions of the Conventional troops escaped.
The Commodore observes, that although he has not yet received any official account of this action, yet he has every reason to believe the above information to be true.
On the departure of the Artois frigate, Admiral Hervey's fleet was in sight, approaching the Isle of Houat. As Sir J. B. Warren has succeeded in establishing a regular correspondence with Charette, the latter has we presume been informed of the arrival of Monsieur, and will no doubt avail himself of his recent victory to facilitate the debarkation of the troops under the orders of his Royal Highness; we therefore expect we shall soon receive some interesting news from that quarter.
Capt. Dunn arrived here the 17th inst. from Hamburg, in 43 days, informs,
That the new French Constitution had been accepted by all the armies, and many of the departments; but whether a majority had ratified the Decrees for re-electing two thirds of the Convention, was not ascertained when Capt. D. failed:
That it was the opinion of many at Hamburg, that the Germanic Princes would succeed in influencing the Emperor to make peace, not only as head of the Empire but as king of Hungary:
That the French army continued on the right side of the Rhine, and were making large strides towards Hanover:
That the English continued to take Dutch vessels whenever they met with them, which was considered as tantamount to a declaration of war:
That the Empress of Russia had not declared war against Prussia as reported; nor had there been any Naval Action: The Dutch fleet that had been out had returned again to the Texel. That the Hanoverians were embarking a body of troops and cavalry, for which purpose a number of American and other vessels had been purchased, amounting to about 36 transports, with three frigates to convoy them—their destination was unknown.
In addition to the above Captain Dunn, says the day before he failed it was reported and believed at Hamburg, that Mentz was taken.
MARINE NEWS.
Thursday, Nov. 19. Arrived brig George and Harriot, Dingley, 60 days from Havre. Left there, Capt. Atkins and Clark, of Boston, to fail soon.
Friday, Nov. 20.—Arrived ship Ozier, Stevens, 54 days from Portsmouth, Eng.—Capt. Hubbard from Demerara, got aground on the lower middle ground, near the castle; having missed flays, in coming up the Harbour.
Same day. Arrived ship Felicity, Brown, in 60 days from St. Ubes. On his passage sprung bowprit, and suffered other damage.
From BALTIMORE, Nov. 7.
It is confidently reported in Alexandria, that his Excellency the President intends to resign the chair in March next, or at least not to stand candidate at the ensuing election. The origin of this report it is said is a respectable and confidential friend. It is no doubt a measure of the greatest wisdom, and proves his love for his country. Having "spent all his best days, the morning of his life in her service," and labored with unwearied solicitude to preserve her constitutional rights; having braved with undaunted courage, the swords of her enemies; having withstood the tongues of malevolence, and the pen of reputation's slanderous assassin; it is now time that he should retire from the busy scene; and enjoy that sweet peace and content which "goodness boloms ever." His actions have heretofore been such as done honor to his head and heart; and least the approach of age should take from the vigor of the one, or chill the insensibility of the other, this glorious resignation has been resolved on.
From PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 11.
The schooner John, after being out from Philadelphia 28 days, bound for St. Domingo, was boarded by a Spanish privateer brig mounting 14 or 16 guns, called the Joseph Alyea Jemal, commanded by Joseph Anthony Abey, from Havanna, who after detaining the said schooner 3 days, plundered her of flour, hams, poultry, porter, &c. &c. and likewise plundered a gentleman passenger of sundry articles of clothing, to the amount of 80 or 90 dollars, and then compelled the captain and supercargo to sign a paper written in Spanish, which they supposed to be by way of indemnification.
We understand there are three English frigates cruising off the capes, and that they boarded the ship Fame from New-York.
PEACE WITH ALGIERS.
Extract of a letter from a respectable house at Gibraltar, dated 25th September, received by the brig Rover, Captain Smith arrived at Baltimore from that port.
"By letters received from Algiers, last post, we find Mr. Joseph Donaldson had succeeded in settling a peace with that state; & make no doubt but Congress will be satisfied with what he has done, and ratify the same so that your navigation will be uninterrupted in the Mediterranean."
From LEXINGTON, Oct. 6. At a numerous meeting of the Freemen of Mercer County, at the Court-House in Harrishburgh, on the 22d day of September, 1795 (being the Court day for the said county) the time and occasion of the meeting having been previously advertised, the following resolutions were unanimously agreed to, and ordered to be printed.
RESOLVED in the opinion of this meeting, that Humphrey Marshall, one of the Senators from this state in the Congress of the United States, has betrayed the trust reposed in him by voting for the conditional ratification of the treaty, lately concluded between America and Great Britain; and has thereby proved himself to be unworthy the confidence of the people of Kentucky.
Resolved therefore, that it be recommended to the legislature of this state, to instruct the said Marshall to vote against any further ratification of the said treaty upon every future occasion of which it may be brought before the Senate; and to refuse his assent to any other treaty with Great Britain, which shall sacrifice the honor, the faith, the independence, the just privileges, or the true interest of the United States.
Resolved, as the opinion of this meeting, that that part of the Federal constitution, by which it is declared that the Senators in Congress shall hold their offices for the term of six years, is dangerous to the liberties of America, destroys their responsibility and enables them to carry into execution, schemes pregnant with the greatest evils.
Resolved therefore, that it be recommended to the legislature of this state, to instruct our Representatives in Congress to propose amendments to that constitution by which the time of the service of the Senators shall be abridged, and by which it shall also be lawful for the legislature of a state to recall its Senator, during the time for which he shall be elected, and to make a new appointment for the residue of the term.
From NEW-YORK Nov. 9.
Letters from Holland, state, that the hatred, discord, and rage, that prevail between the Batavian patriots and the partisans of the House of Orange, have risen to such a height, that if it was not for the 25,000 Frenchmen taken by the Dutch government, into their bay, they would tear one another to pieces in every part of the United Provinces. The Constituted Authorities are obliged to employ all their wisdom and firmness, in order to prevent these dreadful excesses. The same letters that contain this intelligence, mention, also, that at last a division of the Dutch fleet, has failed from the Texel, and that the latter expects to be joined by some ships of war, which are now in the mouth of the river Meuse; after which junction this squadron is to give chase to the English ships, which are infesting the coasts of Holland.
Madame de Barry's beautiful chateau of Lucienne, near Marley, France, with all the furniture and superb glasses, has been sold for one million seven hundred thousand livres. The purchaser is an American.
At Martinique flour was 14 dollars per barrel, beef very low, and provisions of all sorts very dull, and selling below first cost.

Portsmouth, Oct. 30, 1795.

MR. MELCHER, HAD intended not to pursue the fruitless controversy with my friend Bradshaw any farther...
Bradshaw's remarks on the "breaking window business" (as he terms it) "that they were broke and broke," &c. &c.
I thank my friend for his dictionary information, if it would give the meaning of language in general, as well as of particular words...
Bradshaw's observations in his second paragraph are actually characteristic of their author; dissatisfied with the inferences that must result to every rational mind...
On the town-meeting business, Bradshaw observes—that "the right of petitioning in the people is expressly in cases where they have become acts of government," if so, and it should be considered as applicable to such acts...
The citizen did assert that the treaty avowed principles opposed to the French revolution, and Bradshaw (as he says) denied it; one reason why A Republican did not take the trouble to point out in what way it avowed such principles...
I am happy that my friend is willing to rely on the justice of the French government, to secure us peace with that nation, for my part I choose to place my reliance on a different principle...
which alone will enable her to enjoy those sweets which the patriot bee has culled from the poisons of Bellona. La-Vendee and the West of France still prove the horrors which disquiet and perplex her...
When Bradshaw penned the quotation marked in his last paragraph but one, he hoped his readers would not recur to the original, otherwise, however unawed by an higher principle he would not have dared for his reputation sake to publish as a quotation from his opponent...

Peace, which is not only the general wish, but almost the general cry, of every country, seems, however, to be removed to a distant period from the European theatre—but when we consider, that the prevailing opinion in England appears to be (from letters and papers received by late arrivals) that the Germanic princes would succeed in influencing the Emperor to make peace, not only as head of the Empire but as king of Hungary...
The French continue their victories beyond the Rhine; the Pyrenees and the Seine offer fresh laurels. These acquisitions of war are the most powerful arguments for peace. France too has many motives for peace—
which alone will enable her to enjoy those sweets which the patriot bee has culled from the poisons of Bellona. La-Vendee and the West of France still prove the horrors which disquiet and perplex her...
