The Indian Ambassadors are three in number. The chief is son-in-law of Tippoo Saib; he has with him two sons and a guard of eight men. The second is a Sahid, (one versed in the law) and the third is what they call in India a Moonhee (a man of letters) or secretary.
They would not land the 9th, it being an unlucky day, according to their auguring, but they came on shore the next day at four in the afternoon. The forts, the five frigates in the road, the Admirals ship, and all the batteries saluted them, each with 15 guns, as they passed, and on their entering the road, another salute.
Ten boats, commanded by officers of the marines, went to take them on board with their suite, and they landed at the arsenal, where they were received by the Director General of the port, accompanied by all the officers of the arsenal, and walked through an immense crowd of people to the hall of the arsenal, which had been prepared for their reception, and where they were offered perfumes and other refreshments; they did not stay there, but got with their suite into nine carriages which were ready. (the Ambassadors being in the first with the Director General of the port), and proceeded to the Commandant, after passing through the regiments of Dauphine and de Barrois, drawn up for that purpose.
They were escorted by the grenadier companies of those regiments, and on their alighting were introduced to the Commandant, seated under a canopy, and who on their appearance rose to meet them. The interpreter having explained the compliment, they returned an answer, which was also explained. This ceremony took up a quarter of an hour, and the Ambassadors then retired to the apartments prepared for them, having a guard of honor of 50 men, with a colour and an officer, given them.
The next day all the marine officers visited them, and were received after the Asiatic manner, sprinkling them with rose water, and offering each a silver dish, with four compartments filled with different spices, and another filled with small roses. All the corps of the town were in turn introduced, and the municipality have sent them a large present of spices, wax candles, gloves, pomatums, and essences. In the evening they went to the Comedy, where they threw a quantity of silver among the populace, and saw the opera of Richard Cœur de Lion , and a pantomime called Le Vieux de la Montagne . The interpreter explained the whole to them, and they appeared highly pleased with the dance of Quakers.
On the 12th they visited the arsenal, and saw them cast a cannon.
On the 13th, they went to see all the manufactories, and in the evening again to the Comedy; and this day they are to see the troops exercise, and some fireworks in the evening. They are always escorted by the grenadiers of the regiments of Dauphine and de Barrois.
They eat on the ground, having a very rich carpet spread to put their food on, which is dressed by their own cooks; and they appear sensible of their good treatment. They are to leave this place the 21st for Marcellon on their way to Versailles.
L O N D O N, June 3.
Last Monday the Gazette contains the sentences of Melle. Van Witterveld, and J. H. Van Dyck, of Hattem and Elburg. One of the above is a Burgomaster, they are both sentenced for life, as well as two Ministers of the Gospel, a Lieutenant Colonel and many more; some others are only exiled for a particular term of years. The Burgomaster Rauwenhoff was sentenced to have his head topped off on the public scaffold, but the States of Guelderland have mitigated this severity and condemned him to perpetual banishment, with the pain of death if he ever returns.
Mr. John Wesley preached in the parish church of Bradford on Sunday the 4th instant, to the most numerous and respectable congregation that ever appeared in that place. His text was, "The end of all things is at hand: Be sober, and watch unto prayer." He enforced this awful doctrine with uncommon energy, assuring his audience that the world would be at an end in the year 1836. But he intimated that a new world would succeed the old one, far better and infinitely more enlightened; in which there would be no false teachers, no hypocrites, but universal holiness and angelic purity.

REMONSTRANCE just presented to the King of FRANCE by the Noblesse and People of BRITTANY, who are now in Arms.
YOUR Majesty must learn, with wonder, what violence, under your name, has been perpetrated against the Magistrates of Brittany.
Justice is no more! Her sanctuary is profaned. From what should be the defence of the State, we dread its oppression! The soldiery, your ministers, would usurp over us! The civil powers are abrogated!
Sire, Where is the alarm to lead us, when each political and civil claim is at once endangered? If the State is agitated for its Magistrates, if each citizen rises for himself?
Disappointment sharpens sufferings, if not censure. Your Majesty's reign began auspicious under the laws and each legal administration! A national assembly ( Les Etats Generaux ) was promised. Your promise failing, all other objects fail with it! If there is any combination left to lift up France from its abyss, is it not when force is trampling upon justice!
Sire, let us hope, that these disorders raise less from your authority, than the abuse of it!
For while the constitution writhes and languishes under its late losses, the hurt, like the violence, is felt in every part. The crown must shake, when subjects tremble!
To the great principles now clamoured through all France, for each natural immunity and implied public claim, Brittany uplifts a higher tone—for positive rights, as inimitable as religion, as sacred as an oath!
Sire, turn not away your eye from the solemn contract with your States, when Brittany was thus by you recognized in their rights; that the administrations of justice, unchanged by their own consent, should never change, and that each edict and declaration should be confirmed by the Parliament of the Province.
Now, Sire, from what ought to be, advert to what is;—the edicts come to be enregistered are without our consent, as our consent would be without our deliberation!
The constitution, therefore, is no more.—Instead of a proper parliament, National and Plenary, your substitute tribunal is at once alien, illegitimate, and incompetent—can neither know the power, nor feel for the privileges of Brittany.
Thus are these Commissions, and the troops with them, hostile to the sacred engagements of your Majesty. Alas! must be disorder and distrust, till the Magistrates are restored to the laws, and those laws recovered to the nation! A nation, whose entire annals are so many proofs of zeal, fidelity, and love!

An ingenious mechanic lately died in a shed in Golden-lane, where he had lived, worked, and reposed without a bed for several years. This person was such an adept in his profession, that the mathematical-instrument makers, &c. preferred his work to that of any other persons. Having, or pretending, to have some secret in his method, he never suffered any person to see him at work; and what was more extraordinary, using a forge, he had taught a dog to blow his bellows, which some malicious person poisoned a short time before the death of his master. This eccentric person had travelled and worked in almost all the capital cities in Europe; and was the first that improved and introduced into the metropolis the invention on the Continent, known by the name of German steel.

On Wednesday last arrived the Geynond Yacht, with his Excellency Governor Parr, from a visit to the settlements to the westward of Halifax.
Yesterday failed for England, in His Majesty's ship Leander , Sir James Bursley , Commander, Rear Admiral HERBERT SAWYER , Esq. late Commander in Chief of the fleet on this Station. On passing the Town, he was saluted with a discharge of Cannon from Citadel-hill; which was returned by the Leander.
At the same time, the Resource , Capt. Minchin ; Thistle , Capt. Hood , and the Weazle , Capt. Sawyer , failed on a Cruise.
N E W B E R N, July 30.
Accounts from Ocracoke Bar mention, that that dangerous place was last week visited by a furious gale of wind; that twenty vessels were lost. The particulars of this disastrous event, except the following distressful circumstance, have not yet reached us.
Mrs. and doctor Baker, of Bath, had taken passage on board of a vessel of New-England, intending a visit to their relations there. They had with them a young babe, the only fruit of their nuptial amours, who, in the dismal hour of impending danger, slept quietly in its parents' cabin, until the Doctor, fearing that it might be impossible to save it, should the vessel founder or be cast on shore, desired his wife to bring it up—he did—but scarce had he been a few minutes on deck, holding the lovely child in her lap, than the waves raging over the vessel, snatched away her dear babe from her arms, and wanted it to those countries, from whose bourne no traveller returneth.
R I C H M O N D, August 21.
Mr. Nicolson , S I R,
As all newspapers of America have published the accounts of the commotions in France, taken from the English Gazettes, representing the King aiming at despotism, and the Parliaments as protectors of the people oppressed, give me leave to hand you a translation of a letter, I have just received from Paris, stating the fact in its true light; convinced then that it will give pleasure to the good American Patriots to publish it, by which they will find, that the King, Friend, and Ally of the American people, is always the Friend and Father of his own people, I am your Servant, S. V.
"DEAR FRIEND,"
"Paris, May 16, 1788."
"THINKING you must have preferred the same liking for politics, I wish to give you an account of the causes that have brought on the commotions now agitating our country."
"France was indebted at the end of the year 1783, of 645 millions of French livres, arising partly from her expenses in the last war, her revenues far from discharging the interests of that debt, and her ordinary expenses, left a deficiency of 80 millions; by that disproportion of the receipt and expenditures, the said deficiency is increased yearly, and amounted in the year 178787, to 115 millions—the English newspapers amplified it to 200 millions more, misled by some French erroneous calculations, at the time of M. de Calonne's retreat. That Comptroller of Finances, advised the King to call a meeting of Notables of the nation, for to lay before them the true situation of the finances, and the properest means to fill that dreadful deficiency, not by new and ruinous loans bearing interests, but by imposts as less onerous as possible, and producing a real revenue. This Assembly after mature deliberation, agreed to the suppression of the twentieth, * and to lay in compensation, two taxes, one Stamp Tax , modelled nearly upon that of England, and the other Subvention Territorial , taxing indistinctly all lands of the Clergy, Nobility, and of the People; this last class, engaged in few negotiations, and passing few deeds, was little affected by the first tax, and were evidently alleviated by the second, because the repartition became equal, regular, and just; the parks, gardens, walkings, huntings, and castles, being taxed after estimation of their value, as if they were in a state of cultivation, and as the produce of that tax was fixed at an amount of 80 millions yearly, the small properties should have been alleviated—instead of that, they support the greatest part of the tax of the twentieth; every province should have been taxed in their proportion, to complete that amount of eighty millions, the provinces should have taxed the parish or counties, and the repartition made by the inhabitants themselves, for the part of the parish. The King had established in each province an Assembly of Notables, called Provincial Assemblies , for to make the repartition of the tax, and for the good interior administration, where, without removing the pre-eminence of the Clergy and Nobility, the people, nevertheless had enough representation and influence, for to sustain their rights, their taxes bearing essentially upon the Clergy, Nobility, and wealthy people, ought to excite their discontent, but in this National Assembly, (called at so critical an epocha, where in every one was desirous of exhibiting their patriotic zeal), they could not oppose them, openly, but in the expectation that the fall of the Minister of the Finance, would bring on that of his projects, he was taxed of depredation, and in consequence disgraced."
"The Parliament having succeeded in this first attempt, refused to register both these edicts of Stamp and Territorial ; to their remonstrances, the King acceded to suppress them, by substituting the tax of the twentieth, of which the abuses and vices had been disclosed, and acknowledged in the Assembly of Notables; the King's condescension in discharging his Minister and renouncing his projects, which had been approved in the same Assembly; has emboldened the Parliaments of the Provinces distant of the Metropolis, to refuse registering the edict of the twentieth, by which means the King has been deprived of the resource adopted by the Notables, and of those agreed to and substituted by the Parliaments of Paris."
"As all the Parliaments of the kingdom pretend to make one body only, and may oppose the King's will in discontinuing their functions, which occasions discontentment and clamours from the * A tax upon all real revenues."
people; to restore the public tranquillity, the King has thought proper of recalling the Parliaments to their primitive institution, of Judges, and prevent them to be acquainted with State Administration; but as he may be deceived, and that his wishes are only to govern by the laws, has in his late Bed of Justice , created a tribunal called Cour Pleniére , for to register in Paris, the edicts respecting the taxes, and general laws for the kingdom, after deliberation and representation, if necessary; this Cour Pleniére being composed of the most respectable characters of the state, is to inspire the greatest confidence to the nation, for sustaining their rights and dignity the States General (who are an Assembly where all the nation is represented) will take place in three years after the King's promise, and also on all occasions of great importance, must banish all apprehensions of tyranny. The Parliaments insist, upon that Assembly of States General immediately, and the King wishes to postpone it, until the confusion of the finances, of Justice and Administration, may be re-established.
"The King's intentions are then diametrically opposite to those of a Sovereign who is aiming at despotism. Since, by the creation of Cour Pleniére and Provincial Assemblies , the people participate at their taxation, and repartition of the tax, and to the administration of interior regulations, and by those means they acquire true knowledge of their rights, and those of the Sovereign. This knowledge can but increase their affection for their country, and form a public opinion more invulnerable against the Sovereign power, than all intermediate bodies between the King and his subjects, such as the Clergy, Nobility, and the Parliaments, the rights of whom are distinct from those of the people."
"It is then not surprising that the Parliaments have opposed the King in laying these taxes, and in creating the Cour Pleniére , and Provincial Assemblies ; but that in speaking in the name of the people oppressed, and qualifying themselves, their protector and defender against their Sovereign, have succeeded in bringing a part of them on their side, this cannot only be accounted for, from their ignorance on all the objects of administration, and of those now in agitation? The other part of the nation more informed are desirous of these great changes, in expectation of being no longer slaves to old forms and customs, which for ever are opposed to the progress of good government, and are as many impediments to the prosperity of a kingdom such as France. May the present parliamentary opposition (whatever may be their intention) bring forth better order in the administration, to be an occasion to reform all abuses and contribute to increase the liberty and happiness of the people. J. D."
N O R T H A M P T O N, August 27.
On Tuesday of the last week there was a violent gale of wind, by which the inhabitants of this and many of the neighboring towns sustained great damages—About two o'clock the wind arose from the S. and continued with increasing force until after three it then veered to the S. W. and for about 20 minutes was exceedingly violent here—three barns and a number of houses were blown down, several barns unroofed; many apple-trees were demolished, and a great part of the apples blown from the trees which remained; considerable damage was done to the fences, stacks of grain, and the Indian corn; but from the kindness of Providence no lives were lost. We are informed from Deerfield that effects nearly similar to those above described, were produced by the storm in that town, and that its violence was still greater in the towns northwest of Deerfield. In Conway, Ashfield and Whately several buildings were thrown down, whole groves of large wood blown up by the roots and many cattle and horses killed thereby. A child was killed in Hatfield, and a man at Conway. Much damage was done in the towns westward of this, and the gale extended many miles to the east.—The roads in many places were blocked up by the fallen trees, and rendered for some days impassable. It would be endless to describe all the effects of the storm, and impossible to ascertain the damage it has occasioned.

THE MAIL for ENGLAND will close, and be taken from the Post-Office, at 12 o'clock THIS DAY.
Yesterday arrived the sloop Endeavour , Neil, from Kingston, Jamaica.
Extract of a letter from a gentleman at Muskingham, to his friend in Boston, dated July 9, 1788.
"This place exceeds all for elegance of situation and climate. I've no doubt 'twill be a great city for trade in a few years. The Indians appear very civil to us. We have plenty of Perch, Pickerel and Cat Fish; weighing each between 24 and 30 lbs. Last Friday being 4th July, a public entertainment was made, by subscription: 14 toasts were drank: 13 cannon were fired twice, once in the morning and once in the afternoon when the toasts were drank. An oration was delivered on the occasion."
"The Governor arrived this day, upon which 14 guns were fired from the garrison."
"Trees are very large here; there's one in particular whose circumference is 44 feet and 2 inches; so that were it cut out in the middle, a countryman might easily drive a waggon through without touching either of the sides.—Within these few days Corn has grown 9 1/2 inches in 24 hours. There is to be seen the ruins of an ancient city in this place; the fight thereof fills the most curious and ingenious with astonishment."
"Arrivals at Boston. Ships Robinson , Hogg, Domino , George, Boudicot, New-York—Brigs Induttry , Prince, St. Eustatia— L'Active , Aliez, Hipaniola —Prince Charles, Agullo, Alicante— Conquest , Sheriton, Isle of Rhe—Schooners Patty , Arkim, Surinam—Sully Saunders, Hipaniola —Sloops Stork , Goodhue, Martinico —Beaver, Kelly, ditto, and Betsey , Maynew, Philadelphia."
"We have been requested to publish the following."
"The morning following the late storm, as the brig ANNA MARIA , George Halley, Master, from London, was taking in her cargo at Corlear's Hook, a barrel of Turpentine was found on board, that was taken from a place where it had been secured by the owner the evening before.—The Captain being applied to, suggested that his people had taken it afloat; but being convinced by the marks where the barrel had been rolled in the night, gave his word that it should be placed on the wharf where he lay—but the Gentleman (being his Majesty's namesake) forgot his promise, and carried the barrel of turpentine as a Trophy to London."
"** The REVIEWER is received, and will appear to-morrow."
