P E T E R S B U R G H, July 26. The empress has received the compliments of all the nobility and foreign ministers on the triumph of her fleet, on the 17th ult. over the Swedes. As an honorary reward to admiral Greig, for his gallant behaviour on that memorable day, she has presented him the grand blue ribbon ( grand cordon bleu ) with the order of St. Andre.
The admiral, during the action, received a slight contusion on his knee and foot, which did not, however, prevent him from continuing the command of the fleet. The conduct of captain Elphinstone is much to be noticed. The commanders of the fleet are not entitled to the same praise. It is complained of, that five or six kept back their ships, and did not readily obey the signals.
The Prince Gustavus , the Swedish prize of 70 guns, is arrived at Cronstadt, with five Russian men of war, to assist them; they are those the most crippled in the action. Admiral Greig's squadron has been reinforced with four other new ships, while they are repairing. Sixteen new armed galleys are constructing with great expedition; they are to cruise on the coast of Swedish Finland, to oppose the small fleet of the Swedish vessels at Swaborg. These vessels are to mount guns of 18, 24, and 36 pounders; and to make the equipment as complete as possible, half the workmen on the river Nova, and in this port have been pressed on board them.
While the empress was at chapel assisting at the Te Deum for this triumph, news arrived of a third victory over the Turks in the neighbourhood of Oczakow, obtained by prince Nassau. The Turks had all their ships & other vessels taken or destroyed.
We hear from Finland that there has been a smart engagement between our troops and those of Sweden, in which the latter were worsted and had the mortification to see the baron d'Armfeld, the premier chamberlain and favorite minister of Gustavus III made a prisoner of war.
H E L S I N G F O R S, July 23. Certain intelligence is received from the frontiers, that besides the two vessels we took from the Russians in the battle of the 17th ult. two of the enemy's ships of the line have since sunk, and six more been disabled; and all the other vessels of the Russian squadron that made shift to make good their way to Cronstadt were more or less damaged.
The 18th instant, the chevalier Toorning achieved a very bold enterprise, having, with only six armed chaloupes, sailed into the port of Fredericham, from whence he carried off as his prize the only guardship left to protect the place.
V I E N N A, Aug. 2. Colonel Frolich, of the regiment of Carlstadt, being informed in that the Turks were employed along the Unna, in getting in their harvest, and were guarded only by three hundred soldiers, sent a detachment of 200 fusileers, some arquebusiers, and 50 volunteers, whom he followed himself with another division to support them in case of need. Upon the approach of our troops the Turks put most of their corn into their boats, and endeavoured to retreat as fast as they could, but were surprised, both on the river and in the fields, and pursued with their guards quite to the guns of the Turkish castle of Navula. We had one killed, and six wounded; the Turks left six dead on the spot, and lost 40 more; we destroyed 20 waggons of corn, and took four horses.
On the 24th of July 3000 Turks, horse and foot, sisted off from the camp of Dubicza through the forest, along the Unna, towards Czerquina; some hundreds of whom crossed Unna, whilst the rest posted themselves on the banks of the river. Owing to the superiority of their numbers they repulsed our advanced posts, but were hindered from proceeding by the fire from our cannon, and repassed the river, and with their companions on the other side made towards their camp. Our advanced posts had one lieutenant and six soldiers killed. We found only one Turk killed, the Turks having that day, and the day after, carried their killed and wounded to Dubicza.
L O N D O N, September 2. Whitehall, Aug. 23. Yesterday afternoon one of his majesty's messengers arrived at the office of the marquis of Carmarthen, his majesty's principal secretary of state for foreign affairs, with the treaty of defensive alliance, between his majesty and the king of Prussia, which was signed at Berlin on the 13th instant, by Joseph Ewart, Esq. his majesty's envoy extraordinary to that court, and by his Prussian majesty's plenipotentiary duly authorized for that purpose.
An edict is issued in France abolishing the 24 packet boats employed on the West India and American stations, as they have been found to be very inefficient in the receipts, to pay their expenses.
The French have acted with a very becoming spirit in regard to the lottery in favor of the unfortunate sufferers by the late storm. The Tickets are all purchased, and had there been half the number more, they would all have sold the demand being so very great.
The exportation of beef to Finland, from the port of Dantzick has been so great for some weeks past, that the magistrates have thought it necessary to prevent a scarcity, to restrict the exportation of it, but under the express condition, that the price of provisions shall not be risen for the space of twelve months.
The duke of Courland, at the instance of the empress, has prohibited the exportation of grain and cattle to Sweden during the war, as well as every sort of traffic which might be disadvantageous to the interest of Russia.
A body of Moors have marched towards Ceuta, and by their hostile appearance have created an alarm at Madrid, in consequence of which, orders were immediately given to reinforce the Spanish garrison on the Barbary coast.
We long since asserted, that any further idea of fortifying the harbor of Cherbourg was totally abandoned by the French government; and we now confirm it by reporting, that all the laborers, as well as timber laid up at that place for carrying on the project, are sent back to Brest. It is further resolved to take off the tops of those cones already built, and to recover all the stone possible, as they have been found incapable to resist the waves of the sea.
The French have done themselves much mischief in the spoiling the harbor; besides the large waste of public money, the quantity of stones that have been over-set and fallen into the water, have made the port extremely dangerous, as they lie like so many rocks.
Almost three weeks have elapsed since the first accounts were received of a victory gained by the Swedes over the Russian army in Finland, when 4000 Russians, with three generals of high rank were made prisoners; but no confirmation has yet arrived either to the Swedish ambassador, or been announced in the gazette as a matter of that moment would undoubtedly have been. There is every
former accounts; although they have been conveyed through almost every channel, it is impossible but that an event of so much importance, had it really happened, would long ere now have been communicated officially.
Of the capture of Oczakow, Choczim, and Bender no notice has been publicly given; but as this, from all circumstances, is much more probable than the former, we shall be able soon to announce that the Russian troops have made themselves masters of Moldavia.
The last mail from Holland speaks rather confidently of the surrender of Choczim to the Imperial forces on the 30th ult. It was reported at Vienna that the terms of capitulation were about to be published there.
B E N N I N G T O N, October 13. At the general election held at Manchester, on Thursday the 9th inst. the arrival of his excellency in town, under the escort of three companies of cavalry, commanded by Capt. Robinson, Hitchencock and Clark, was announced by the discharge of five cannon, by the artillery company, under the command of Capt. Harmon; two companies of light infantry, commanded by Captains Todd and Gray, were on the parade, and saluted the governor as he passed. Lieut. Col. Keys, of Manchester, being appointed officer of the day, took command of the troops, and performed such military manoeuvres, as did them much honor; after which, a sermon well adapted to the occasion, was delivered by the Rev. Mr. Sill, of Dorset. Declaration being made that his excellency THOMAS CHITTENDEN, Esq. was elected governor for the ensuing year, and his honor JOS. MARSH, Esq. lieutenant governor, the troops were again called to order, and fourteen cannon discharged. The military scene closed by a few de joy by the cavalry and light infantry. The whole business of the day was concluded with the utmost good order and regularity, and all retired in perfect harmony. The following gentlemen were duly elected for the ensuing year, to the offices assigned to their respective names, viz.—The hon. Sam. Mattock, Esq. treasurer; Jos. Fay, Esq. secretary to the governor and council; the hon. Gideon Olin, Esq. speaker of the house of assembly; Roswell Hopkins, Esq. secretary of state; Stephen Jacobs, Esq. clerk of the general assembly;—and
The hon. Sam. Safford, Jacob Bailey, John Strong, Peter Olcott, Isaac Tichenor, Timothy Brownson, Eben. Walbridge, Sam. Fletcher, Thos. Carter, Thos. Murdock, Jonathan Hunt, and John Fallet, Esqrs. counsellors.
The general voice of the freemen, in the choice of the officers of government for the year ensuing, was very remarkable. The suffrages for his excellency the governor were nearly unanimous.
N E W - Y O R K, Oct. 28.
Yesterday arrived the brig True Briton , Collins, in 16 days from St. Johns, New-Brunswick.
The True Briton was dismasted in a violent gale of wind on the 11th inst. 13 leagues westward of the Seal Islands.
To the Printer of the Daily Advertiser.
S I R, The manner in which public disputes are too frequently managed—the evil consequences which never fail to result therefrom, & particularly the late conduct of certain controversialists in a cause which by every tie of the social compact, required the most calm and dispassionate discussion, gave rise to the following reflections. As far as they are just, I hope they will assist in determining a proper rule of conduct. Your's, A Friend to Fair Play.
THE maxim of the wise man drawn from experience attentively weighed, is a safe and a general rule. "Answer a fool according to his folly, lest he be wise in his own conceit." That is, if a man meddles with matters with which he has no business, as long as he offers anything like argument, and vauntingly tells you that he has said something unanswerable on the subject, then grapple him with his own weapons, and dispel the mist which he has thrown around, that a good cause may neither suffer by your silence, nor any enemy be allowed to escape with flying colors; but the moment that argument is dropt, and passion prevails, the maxim is reverted. "Answer not a fool according to his folly, lest thou also be like unto him." If a man boasts of himself and talks big—if he rails and becomes passionate—if he misrepresents what is commendable, or exaggerates what is faulty—if he falls into banter and calumny—if he stands on forbidden ground, you must not follow him; for if you are unwarily led into such a tract, and you attempt to defend yourself with such outrageous weapons, you will certainly incur the contempt which would have fallen on your adversary, and be justly reckoned as great a fool as he. Virgil, who discovers the most refined and correct taste of all the Latin poets, has introduced in his pastorals, a scene between Menaleas and Democritus, that exhibits with great precision the ordinary method which obtains in the management of disputed affairs with persons of rude uncultivated minds. Menaleas and Democritus attacked each other very abruptly on their rural concerns, and the conflict was maintained with much such sort of coarse arguments as in this refined city we have daily occasion to observe.
Menaleas and Democritus were rustics of no breeding or delicacy, and their language exactly corresponded with their character. In this instance the Roman poet, by a nice stroke of hidden moral intimates, that none but the rudest and most clownish of mankind, are capable of disputing in such a manner. The sacred scriptures have preserved the record of a controver-
sy which exemplifies in a striking manner the conduct of an impassioned disputant. The parties on this occasion were of the most distinguished sort, tho' of the most opposite nature; being no less personages than Michael the Arch Angel, and the Devil. Michael contended with the Devil about the body of Moses; but the fiend to human kind supported his claim by uttering such horrid blasphemies, not only against God, but also against his messenger, that the good angel "durst not" oppose him with the same weapon "bringing against him a railing accusation," indeed a celebrated writer observes very sagely that Michael knew well enough that the Devil was too much for him at this wapon; he therefore prudently relinquished the contest, and cheerfully yielded to his Satanic Majesty, the ill preference of managing the hellish instrument with much address. Both the sacred and profane writers are seen from these instances to be unanimous in determining that none but a fool, a clown, or a Devil can carry on a dispute with calumny and abuse. Should any therefore ever be unhappily engaged with a person of this cast (and alas for the peace of society that such nuisances so often appear) be ought in silent contempt to despise what is said—for when a man divests himself of the common principles of wisdom, when he substitutes bluster and passion for reason and good sense, he sinks far below the attention of rational creatures, and becomes equally the object of pity and disdain. Qui capit illi facit.

COAL TAR.
A Quantity of this Tar, and of black and clear Varnish extracted from Coal, is just arrived, to be sold for ready money only, by Charles Wilkes, No. 12, Hanover-square. The sole Agent in America for the British Tar Company. THE superior excellence of this Tar in pre- serving the bottoms of vessels from the worms, and in keeping them clean, has been proved by repeated experiments. It has been also found to be an excellent preservative of cast and wrought Iron from rust. A description of the different kinds of Coal Tar and Varnish made by the Bri- tish Tar Company, and of the various uses they may be applied to with the greatest advantage, with directions for using the same, may be had as above. 29th Sept. 1788.
The following Certificate of an Experiment made in New-York, is added for the information of the Public. New-York, April 26, 1788.
WE the subscribers do hereby certify that on or about the 13th June last, we attended at Van Tayl's wharf, on the East River, in this city, where we examined three pieces of timber, all of the same dimensions, one payed over with Lord Dundonald's late invented Coal Tar, the other two pieces with a about thick coat of common ship stud (pitch, tar, oil, and sulphur); that we after- wards saw them all charred to and sunk along the said wharf.
That nearly six months after, to wit, on the 5th of December following, we again attended at said wharf, when in our presence they were all taken up, and on examining them, the piece done over with the Coal Tar appeared clean and entirely free from grass and barnacles, the other pieces were both very foul, one of them was almost covered with barnacles; that on cutting them in several places we found the worms in full possession of the two pieces payed with the ship stud, scarcely an inch having escaped them. The piece done over with the Coal Tar was perfectly free from them, and as found and fresh as when put down.
From the above experiment we are fully of opinion that the Coal Tar will preserve the bot- tom of ships from barnacles and the worms, and is worthy of the greatest encouragement. Signed) John Murray, Thomas Sanders, Andrew Van Tayl, Stephen Crossfield, John Thompson, Wm. Rhineauder.
