W A R S A W, July 23.
Letters from Bohopol, of the 14th of this month, bring accounts that the Russian fleet, on the 13th, at 3 o'clock in the morning, attacked again, and completely beat that of the Turks, and burnt 4 of their largest ships and 10 frigates; the rest escaped into the open sea. The action lasted till noon. Oczakow is now attacked by sea, and the Russian camp is but seven versts from the place. prince Potemkin has reconnoitered Oczakow in person, and the Turks made a brisk sally, but were repulsed. The Turks were drove out of the outworks, the suburbs are burnt, and the Russian chasleurs on foot encamp upon the spot. The garrison is deprived of fresh water, as the Russians are in possession of all the fources from whence they obtained it.
V I E N N A, July 23.
We have received letters from Cherson, bearing date the 4th inst. by which the news of the defeat of the Ottoman fleet in the Black Sea, is confirmed, with this additional circumstance, that the day after the action, rear admiral John Paul Jones went in pursuit of the vessels that had fled towards Varna, in the neighborhood of which he came up with them, and took two more sail, on board one of which was the captain pacha, who is said to be desperately wounded.
By the same advices we learn, that the 1st inst. (three days after the victory) the fortress of Oczakow was invested on both sides at once; by sea, by prince de Nassau Siegen, and by land, by prince de Potemkin; in consequence of which, the Turks made a vigorous sally, but after an obstinate and bloody engagement, were forced to retreat, with the loss of 1000 men killed, and 800 prisoners.
B E R L I N, July 29.
Yesterday several private letters were received from Memel, with the important news that on the 15th inst. the Swedish fleet had attacked that of the Russians, which sailed from Cronstadt, off Revel; that three of the Russian ships were sunk, two taken and the rest dispersed.
We have also accounts that the grand duke of Russia, and Count Anhalt, are marched with ten regiments of regular troops to face the Swedes in Finland.
L O N D O N, August 6.
At an Assembly held at Vezille, a town about ten miles from Grenoble, on the 21st of July, present from 5 to 600 of the principal nobility and gentry of the provinces of Dauphiny.
Resolved, That we still continue to offer new remonstrance to the King, to withdraw his new edicts; to recall his Parliament, and to convene a meeting of the States General.
Resolved, That whoever shall accept a place in any of the new tribunals, whether by election or otherwise, shall be declared infamous, and a traitor to his country.
Resolved, That this province in order to fix its union with the rest, will not in future grant any impost, either by free gift or otherwise, till such time as it shall have been deliberated by the States General.
Resolved, That it will continue to demand the establishment of its ancient rights; that, "as taxation is the price of public security, to this province will cease to pay any, if his Majesty does not speedily re-establish the Courts of Justice."
Resolved, That the members of this province will continue to demand the liberty of all its members, who have been taken away by orders of government.
Resolved, That as the Prime Minister has thought fit to return the address presented to him for the King's perusal, without opening it, a copy of the resolutions of this assembly shall be sent to the King's brother, and every Prince of the blood, in order that his Majesty may be acquainted with them.
Resolved, That this assembly do at different intervals form itself into committees, till such time as the new edicts be withdrawn: That the next meeting be on the 1st of September next, when all the members promised to attend.
To these resolutions the provinces of Bearn and Britanny have acceded.
To pacify as much as possible, his Majesty has promised to convene the States general of the kingdom in the month of May next, but it is not thought that this proposal alone will satisfy the Parliament.
The best informed people are of opinion that the King, finding the unanimity and firmness of the people at large, will not dare to enforce his new laws by military violence, and that he will at last give way to the wishes of his people.
A private letter from France mentions, that the famous Bailli de Suffrein is exiled, on account of highly approving the conduct of one of his nephews, who is a Lieutenant Colonel, and who refused to carry into execution the new laws by force of arms.
Extract of a letter from Hanover, July 27. "Orders are arrived here to the Lords of the Regency of the Electorate from London which have not a little disconcerted the plans that were some time since laid down. One is to send out recruiting parties and to raise recruits for augmenting the several regiments to their full complement; a second to lay up the wheat and corn, the produce of the ensuing harvest, in the magazines and granaries, and not to permit any exportation; the 3d to recall all the officers and men from the service of any foreign power whatever into which they may happen to have enlisted, and to grant no more furloughs or leave of absence either to officers or men for six months. Every thing in this part of Europe looks like a general war; hostilities are known to have passed between the Swedes and Russians in Finland; Denmark is preparing a considerable fleet, and most of our Continental neighbors are putting themselves in a posture of defence and efficiency."
Two Russian frigates, the Jaroslaw of 32 guns, and the Hector of 26 12 pounders, with 240 men each, are both taken by the Swedish fleet, and brought into Rhode, near Sweabourg; the crews were put into the prison of the Castle, and orders have been given to use them well.
—August 9.—
The Hamburg Gazette, received yesterday, gives the following account of a sea-fight, between the Swedish and Russian fleets, which took place on the 19th of last month:—The Swedish fleet consisted of fifteen ships of the line, the Russian fleet of seventeen. They came in sight near the island of Houghland, and an engagement soon after took place. The action commenced about five, P. M. and continued till midnight, when the Russian fleet was dispersed. The issue of the engagement proved to be, that the Swedes had sunk one Russian man of war, and taken another of 74 guns and 780 men. The Duke of Sudermania went the next day into Sweabourg, with a ship of his fleet missing. It is thought the victory would have been more complete on the part of the Swedish Admiral, had not the dispersion of force, in respect to the size and
is much shattered, while that of the Swedes has been very little damaged. The action took place about four sea miles off Revel, in Livonia.
The foregoing we are assured may be depended upon as authentic; and we are now able to add from undoubted authority, that the Swedish ships were much smaller than the Russians, having only three ships of 70 guns each, the others only 60 guns, whereas the Russians had one of 84 guns, two of 83 guns, and several of 74 guns, besides which, the Russians had the wind in their favor during the whole engagement. The Russian ship taken, is the Vice-Admiral. The number of killed and wounded on board the Swedish fleet is not known yet, but they write in general terms, that the engagement was very severe and bloody, it began at five o'clock in the afternoon, on the 17th of July, and lasted for upwards of seven hours.
Another account says, the Russians lost four frigates, and several transports; and that as soon as the Swedish fleet was refitted, which they expected would be completed in less than a week, the Duke of Sudermania means to pursue his advantages, and seek for the Russian fleet.
A letter from the Hague, dated August 5, gives the following account of the above engagement: On the 17th ult. the two fleets met, the Russians consisted of 16, and the Swedish of 15 sail of the line; that the engagement lasted nine hours, from two o'clock P. M. till eleven, and was obstinately contested, but ended in favor of the Swedes, who have taken one ship of the line, (the second in command, Count Wackdem, Rear-Admiral) and four frigates; both fleets, however, were so much damaged, that they were obliged to put back to their respective ports for refit.
Letters from Amsterdam of the same date, confirm the above, and assert, that the Swedish fleet were returned to the coast of Finland, not much damaged, and would be ready for sea in two or three days, when their intention was to pursue the victory, by seeking the Russian fleet on the coast of Livonia. These letters further add, that besides one ship of the line being taken, there was another sunk.
Dispatches received yesterday, from M. Fenwick, his Majesty's Consul at Elsinore, confirm the above account in more general terms, and corroborate the engagement to have terminated in favor of the Swedes.
A letter from Peterburgh, dated July 13, says—"The situation of this capital at this time is very singular. Should an open rupture happen with Sweden, which is but too much feared, nothing short of a miracle can save it from famine. The provisions which were hitherto drawn from Moscow, have been sent from thence to another quarter, where the armies want support. Corn is buying up in Prussia, Poland, &c. but how it is to reach us, is as yet difficult to say; the over-land carriage is next to impossible."
NEW-YORK, Oct. 8.
A few nights ago, a fire broke out at the dwelling-house of Doctor Hale, at Tarry-Town, which entirely consumed the same, together with all his furniture and effects, notwithstanding every endeavour on the part of the neighbours to suppress the flames.—The Doctor had a most providential escape—the beams falling in previous to his discovering the fire, and with the greatest difficulty and risk, had only time to save a woman and three children, who were asleep in an adjoining part of the building.—It is supposed the accident happened from fire having been for some time concealed in one of the beams of the chimney.
DIED, on his passage from London to Philadelphia, on board the ship Harmony, Capt Willet, Mr. William Robertson, merchant of this city, and son of Alexander Robertson, Esq.
The ships Pigou, Sutton, and Harmony, Willet, from London, are arrived at Philadelphia, in which came passengers a number of respectable ladies and gentlemen.
On Sunday evening departed this life in the 18th year of her age, Miss RICHE LEVY, youngest daughter of Mr. Hayman Levy, merchant, of this city.
MR. CHILDS,
As it is the duty of every inhabitant of this country, to communicate such things to his fellow citizens, as may have a tendency to promote the public good.—A PRISONER, confined in the room number five, of the gaol of this city, desires through the channel of your useful paper, to make known to all it doth concern, that he is possessed of the knowledge effectually to destroy the insect called the HESSIAN FLY, which has for several years past, done great damage to the wheat of this country; and may be spoken with on the subject, in the room aforesaid.
October 6th. 1788.
Frederick-Town, Sept. 24. From a person who passed through this town last Saturday, and who produced to us credentials, the authenticity of which may be depended on—we have abstracted the following account:—
Our informer was taken prisoner by the Algerines, in a ship belonging to Boston, bound to Lisbon, and commanded by Capt. Williams. After his arrival at Algiers, he was with the rest of the ship's company exposed for sale at public vendue—from whence he was sent to the country-house of his master, about two miles from town, where he was chained to a wheel-barrow, and kept on one pound of bread per day—with a pint of rice per week, for the space of 18 months, during which time he had no opportunity to learn the fate of his companions, until the 10th day of December last—He with another Christian slave were removed to a gaol in the town of Algiers, where he discerned amongst 400 Christian slaves three of his shipmates, and
ten other, when they were distributed on board of different galleys, in the service of the Dey. Our informer, with 18 other slaves, was put on board a xebec, which carried 8 six pounders and 60 men: On his arrival he was chained with the other slaves to the oars, and experienced the most cruel treatment for above four weeks—till on the 20th of January last, the day of his deliverance appeared; being on the coast of Malta, they were attacked by an armed vessel belonging to Genoa, which, after a shocking scene of bloodshed, took them sword in hand; the unfortunate slaves being the most exposed, 11 of them were killed in their chains—our informer with the few remaining were set at liberty, and treated with that humanity which distinguishes the Christian from the Barbarian. They landed first in Italy, where they were furnished with money, cloaths, and a passport. Our informer having formed a resolution never to expose himself to the danger of being taken a second time by those enemies to mankind, undertook to travel by land to Rome, from there through Spain, and France, till he arrived at Bourdeaux, from whence he found the way to his native country again. He is now on his way to see his ancient parents, who it may easily be supposed will drop a parental tear to hear this mournful tale, related by their unfortunate son.
At the time this person left Algiers, all the Christian slaves were brought from the country into the town, in order to be put on board of the galleys, as the Dey had taken an active part in favor of the Porte.
