PHILADELPHIA,
THURSDAY EVENING, JUNE 15.
Messrs. Thomas Morris of Ontario county,
Seth Phelps of Onondaga county, and Michael Myers of Herkimer county, are elected Senators to Represent the Western District in the State of New York. The above gentlemen are Federal Republicans.
We can assure our readers from good authority, that, although the Democratic ticket was successful in the city of New York, the State generally, has made a judicious election; and that, probably the majority of Federalists will be as two to one.
SATS A CORRESPONDENT.
The election of Mr. Parker of Massachusetts, a member of the House of Representatives of the United States, in the place of Mr. Dearborn, is another triumph of FEDERALISM.
FROM A CORRESPONDENT.
In Bache's Aurora of last Saturday, I observe, under the Frederick-Town head, an extract of a letter from a member of Congress, which asserts, that "a vessel just arrived brings an account that the business of the Commissioners for settling spoliations is certainly broken off; said to be in consequence of certain principles being settled which the British Commissioners did not like; on which account they withdrew themselves from the board; and that the British Ministry will not suffer the remaining three to go on with the business."
The whole of this intelligence is so notoriously false, as to render it almost beneath contradiction. The late decisions of that board which have appeared in various newspapers are however the best refutation of it. A. B.
MR. TENN.
COMPLAINTS have been frequent during the present Session of Congress, relative to the reporting of their debates, but I believe no speech has been worse, if any, so badly reported, as that of Mr. DENNIS. The sense is not only in many important particulars greatly perverted, but it is in several parts rendered perfectly nonsensical and unintelligible. One example will suffice. Mr. DENNIS said that a gentleman from Pennsylvania had said, that it was not to be expected that the different parts of the Government, like a Clock, would operate in perfect unison, but that one part was intended to differ from, and control another. As reported, it stands thus—"according to an observation made, the Government is like a Clock, that if one part does not do its duty, the other parts will compel it." The speech has evidently been reported by an unskilful hand, and can only be accounted for in this way, that as it was delivered immediately after the House was called, the best reporters had not probably taken their places.
The following may serve to elucidate the opinion entertained by the Government of France itself, as to the solidity and duration of Republican Governments in France:
Extract from the Message of the Directory to the Councils, concerning the oath recommended to be administered to the Electors, dated in March last.
"Such is the present situation of the Republic as to leave no doubt that both the partisans of ROYALTY and anarchy equally rely on the approaching elections for the success of their criminal designs. Each party is striving to get their accomplices elected. This plan is developed in the papers found on the late conspirators. On the other hand, liberticide-writers preach up openly, ROYALISM, invite resistance to the laws, and heap obloquy, calumny, and execration on every thing on every thing connected with the Government. They publish and disseminate apologies for the Emigrants; in short, the REPUBLIC may be said to become a PROBLEM, and to judge from the audacity of its enemies, we MAY BE ALMOST PERMITTED TO DOUBT OF ITS EXISTENCE."
COMMUNICATION.
IN the debate in the House of Representatives on the answer to the President's Speech, and in the course of discussing the defensive measures proposed by Mr. Smith of South Carolina, it was said by the French party that France has nothing to fear from the United States.
France, it may be seen, has to fear, 1stly. The deprivation of those supplies of various kinds which she has heretofore received by American vessels, and through the medium of American merchants, and which are essential to the prosecution of the war.
2dly. The clamours of her allies, Spain and the United States, from the injuries they must experience, should she oblige them to adopt similar measures to those she is pursuing.
3dly. The critical situation to which she will reduce Spain in particular, should she drag her into the war, considering that the fate of the Floridas and Louisiana depend upon her retaining the friendship of the United States.
4thly. The certain loss of the West India islands from a want of our provisions, and intercepting their supplies, which must inevitably throw them into the hands of Great Britain.
What, on the other hand, have the United States to fear from France? It is not possible, that, in the present situation of the French Marine, there can be spared from it
a detachment adequate to make any impression on the United States, should the measures of defence recommended by the Executive be adopted. It is well known that she cannot furnish a fleet to protect her West India islands; can she then send a fleet that could materially distress the United States?
Admitting however that she may make such an attempt, would not the armament be thought by England to be destined for the West Indies? At least must not England act upon that supposition? And will it not therefore be watched, intercepted, or dispersed without much or any agency on the part of the United States.
Such being the position of the United States, as relative to France, the most prudent issue may be expected from negotiation, SHOULD SHE SEE THAT OUR PREPARATIONS ARE CALCULATED TO MEET WAR.
BOSTON, June 7.
The Committee on the Governor's Address, reported an answer, which being read was accepted, and the same committee directed to present it to his Excellency.
THE ANSWER.
MAY IT PLEASE YOUR EXCELLENCY. YOUR address to the Legislature gives great satisfaction to the Representatives, and excites the most pleasing expectations from your administration. With pleasure do we offer you our congratulations on being elected the First Magistrate of this Commonwealth. An appointment equally honorable to you, and our constituents, as it has proceeded from a just estimation of your character.
It is the singular felicity and high privilege of the people of the UNITED STATES, to live under constitutions of government deliberately framed, and solemnly established by themselves; which are administered likewise by men of their own choice. The security, the freedom, and the happiness which these constitutions have afforded, cannot fail of having produced an universal and strong attachment to them. The unrivaled prosperity which our country has enjoyed, for several years past, is undoubtedly much to be ascribed to the establishment of the federal government, and to the wisdom, and purity of its administration: While we regret that the beloved and distinguished fellow citizen who presided over that administration has retired to private life, where we trust he will continue to enjoy the blessings of his countrymen: We are happy to recognize in his successor, a citizen of Massachusetts, so eminently conspicuous for his talents and his virtues. His long experience in political life; his approved integrity and patriotism; and his great abilities justly entitle him to the highest esteem and confidence of his fellow-citizens. Our relation to foreign nations appears critical and important. The unfathomable depredations which have been committed on our commerce by the Belligerent Powers, and particularly those which have recently proceeded "from a great nation whose friendship we highly value, and whose happiness we have not ceased to wish for," cannot be considered without the most serious concern. On this interesting occasion, the President of the United States has summoned the National Council, and pointed out to them for their consideration the understanding which unhappily exists between the Government of France and that of this country; and has signified his intention to institute further negotiation, in order if possible to effect an accommodation upon honorable terms. To those of your excellency we unite our fervent wishes, and we cannot refrain from adding our confident expectation that these overtures may be crowned with success. That in the magnanimity of the French nation, and in return for a just and liberal policy on the part of our own government, we may find indemnity for the losses we have sustained, and a restoration of the harmony and good will which formerly subsisted between the two republics. To the wisdom of our national government the people have assigned the consideration and decision of this, with their other important national concerns, and we are confident we speak the language of our constituents, when we say, they consider, in any reverse of fortune, a firm support of their Federal Government as the sure, the only means of enjoying and securing their national happiness. In any event they will never be separated from the government of their choice. The rights and liberties, the freedom and independence of America, have been dearly purchased, and will never be surrendered to any power on earth.
A cheerful submission to the laws, and a readiness to support the civil magistrate in the constitutional and legal discharge of his duty, is indispensably incumbent on every citizen, and is the only method by which we can receive the full benefit of our free and happy political institutions. The establishment and encouragement of such institutions as tend to diffuse useful knowledge; to promote industry, religion and virtue is of the first importance and we doubt not of your ready co-operation in every measure that may subserve these valuable purposes. The enjoyment of a free government essentially depends on the enlightened morality of its citizens. While exercising our thoughts and exerting our best abilities to establish the peace and promote the prosperity of our country, we trust, we shall never be unmindful of our dependence on the Supreme Governor of the Universe, nor of his signal interpositions in behalf of the United States, but ever acknowledge them with heartfelt gratitude, and look up to him for wisdom to direct us in all our measures. Your Excellency will permit us to add, that entertaining an high sense of your firmness and impartiality, we repose such implicit confidence in your assurance, that in your civil and military appointments, so important to the prosperity of the Commonwealth, you will invariably consider virtue, attachment to the constitution of our country, and the love of order as among the first qualifications.
CONTINUATION OF Foreign Intelligence, From London papers by the Telemachus.
The General in Chief of the army of Italy, to his royal highness M. Prince Charles.
Head-Quarters, Clagenfurt, 11th Germinal, 5th year of the Republic. (March 31)
M. General in Chief,
Brave soldiers make War, and desire Peace. Has not the war lasted for six years? Have we not killed men and committed evils enough against suffering humanity? Such are the exclamations used on all sides. Europe, who had taken up arms against the French republic, has laid them down. Your nation alone remains; and yet blood is about to flow more than ever. The sixth campaign is announced under the most portentous auspices. Whatever may be the result, many thousands of gallant soldiers must still fall a sacrifice in the prosecution of hostilities. At some period we must come to an understanding, since time will bring all things to a conclusion, and extinguish the most inveterate resentments.
The Executive Directory of the French republic communicated to his Imperial majesty their inclination to terminate a conflict which desolates the two countries. Their pacific overtures were defeated by the intervention of the British cabinet. Is there no hope, then, of accommodation? Is it essential to the interests, or gratifying to the passions, of a nation far removed from the theatre of war, that we should continue to murder each other? Are not you, who are so nearly allied to the Throne, and who are above all the despicable passions which generally influence Ministers and Governments, ambitious to merit the appellation of "the Benefactor of the Human Race", and "the Saviour of the German Empire"? Do not imagine, my dear General, that I wish to insinuate that you cannot possibly save your country by a cessation of arms; but on the supposition that the chances of war were even to become favorable, Germany will not suffer less on that account. With respect to myself, gallant General, if the overture which I have now the honor to make to you, could be the means of sparing the life of a single man, I should think myself proud of the Civic Crown to which my interference would entitle me, than of the melancholy glory which could result from the most brilliant military exploits.
I beg of you to believe me to be, General in Chief, with sentiments of the most profound respect and esteem, &c. (Signed) BUONAPARTE.
FROM THE COURT GAZETTE.
VIENNA, April 5.
The present war, of which the unavoidable consequence has been the destruction of so many lives, has given the greatest uneasiness to his Imperial majesty, from the time of his accession to the throne. Penetrated with a sense of his duty, and compassion for his subjects, and animated with the wish to restore plenty and prosperity to all his hereditary states, his majesty has never ceased to devise such means as might put an end to the calamities of war; and it was with the utmost regret that he saw all his endeavours fruitless, and himself in consequence obliged to exert his utmost force to defend his states and subjects against the attacks of the enemy. Anxious to spare the blood of his subjects his Imperial majesty still wished for peace even at the moment when his arms were most signalily victorious. His majesty has now likewise given in charge to the undersigned, the President of Lower Austria, to communicate to the public the most positive assurance that he is now employed in the most earnest manner, in hastening the conclusion of peace. But though his majesty will neglect nothing which may procure the blessings of a speedy peace to his hereditary states, he trusts with confidence, that should the Enemy, dazzled by the changeable fortune of war, contrary to what we would hope, arrogantly reject all reconciliation, or insist on extravagant conditions, and such as are disgraceful to the Austrian nation, every faithful subject, mindful of the duties to which he has sworn, will exert his utmost efforts to obtain peace, by a courageous defence of his country, and will contribute all in his power to preparations which, the extreme emergency may render necessary for the safety of the capital; and that the brave inhabitants of Vienna will show no less courage and loyalty than their glorious ancestors, who, under Ferdinand and Leopold I. on the walls of their City, fought and conquered for their religion, their sovereignty, their country, and their honor. (Signed) Francis, Count SARRAZIN, President of Administration in Lower Austria. VIENNA, April 4, 1797.
PARIS, April 12.
In the sitting of the Electoral Assembly of the department of the Seine, of the 23rd Germinal (12th of April) the president received a letter from Boissy d'Anglas, announcing his acceptance—it concluded in the following manner:
"Have the kindness, citizen president, to inform the assembly, that if, in the course of this memorable, and too often cruel revolution which we are called upon to terminate, it has not been possible for me to prevent the frightful evils that have accompanied and followed it, it has been my only desire, my only hope and ambition, to do all I could to heal the wounds, to make the result useful, and to make the reign of wise and humane laws and well regulated liberty succeed the disorders of the revolutionary anarchy which has so long tormented France."
The letter was read twice, and loudly applauded.
BERLIN, March 24.
The Spanish minister in this city, the chevalier Borghese, has been recalled by his court. It is said that his recall has been occasioned by the complaints of the Executive Directory, relative to the conduct of the chevalier, who has constantly visited the French emigrants, and has spoken most disrespectfully of the French republic.
LONDON, April 18.
His majesty's sloop Bittern has taken a large ship of 800 tons burden, bound to Cadiz from Buenos Ayres, in the South Seas; had been out 80 days; valued at 80,000. She had on board when she struck 14 chests of silver and one of gold, which are now on board the Bittern. The chief of her cargo consists in bosaloes hides, copper and furs. The Hants county meeting to be held at Winchester to-morrow, to consider of a petition to his majesty, for the dismissal of ministers, will be, it is supposed, more numerously attended than any similar meeting on former occasions. Both parties muster high in rank, fortune, and respectability; the opposers add to their list the marquis of Winchester, the earls of Portsmouth, Carnarvon, Temple, and Northesk; viscounts Middlesex, Hood, and Lynton; lords Stawell, Porchester, and Rossehill; hon. G. Pitt, hon. J. T. Townshend, and near 150 other noblemen and gentlemen; all determined to give the minister their decided support.
Lately was married Mr. Goodwin, author of a pamphlet against the institution of Ma-
trimony, to the famous anchoress Mrs. Wolstencroft, who wrote in support of the Rights of Women.
A beautiful passage of Tasso's Jerusalem appears extremely appropriate to the present state of Italy. It is thus translated by the elegant Mr. Hoole:—
"Shall then a savage race, whose barbarous mind No reason governs, and no laws can bind? Shall these, in state full of wealth and blood, Lay on our willing necks the servile load? Such are the sufferings and the insulting scorn, Which seven long years our passive train has borne; That distant Rome may blush to hear our shame, And future times reproach the Italian name."
April 26.
King's Fisher, Tagus, March 30, 1797.
SIR, I beg leave to acquaint you, that yesterday morning, Oporto bearing E. N. E. distant sixteen leagues, we discovered a brig to the windward, standing towards us. At nine A. M. we perceived she had tack'd, on which I made sail in chase, and at a quarter before four P. M. came up with her; when, after exchanging two or three broadsides, she struck, and proved to be Le General Privateer, of Bourdeaux, pierced for 18 guns, but mounting 14, four and three pounders, and manned with 114 men, one of whom was killed, and three wounded. We had not a man hurt. She had been out fifteen days, and had taken an English brig, from Faro, bound to Falmouth.
Le General is exceedingly well equipped, and is said to be a fast sailing vessel, but had lost her fore top-gallant mast and bowsprit in the late gales, and was steering to Vigo to repair her damages.
I have the honor to be, &c. (Signed) JOHN BLIGH.
A mail from Lisbon arrived yesterday, having been brought to Falmouth by the Prince Adolphus packet, in twelve days.
Lisbon, April 3.
"The Alexander man of war arrived here safe with the convoy on Friday last, and failed this morning to join admiral Jervis's fleet, which sailed on Friday. It is reported that the Spanish fleet was to leave Cadiz on Saturday last."
THE NEW DEPUTIES IN FRANCE.
As the manner in which the Legislative Body of France is composed, must naturally have a powerful influence on the conclusion of a general peace, and as in this point of view it appears to us important to know the character of the new elected deputies, we intend to lay before our readers a brief notice of the principles and past conduct of these deputies, that they may be able to calculate the change in the spirit and system of the French government, which the renewal of the legislature is likely to produce. Several inaccurate accounts of the new elected deputies of Paris having appeared in the public prints, we shall begin with giving an exact description of the most prominent features of their character and former situation.
Fleurieu (ci-devant chevalier) was a member of the academy of sciences at Paris; one of the most able officers of the ancient royal navy, and minister of the marine under the reign of Louis XVI. who appointed him tutor of the young dauphin. He is a man of known honesty and moderation. His brother M. de la Tourette, perpetual secretary of the academy of Lyons, perished in the massacres committed in that town.
Murinais (ex-couvent) who, as well as the former, has been appointed a member of the council of elders, is not to be confounded with the chevalier de Murinais, his brother, ex-member of the right side of the constitutional assembly, who at present resides in London.
The new deputy, formerly colonel of the regiment of dauphin infantry, and afterwards Maréchal de Camp, has always displayed in his conduct prudence, firmness, and moderate principles.
Debonnières, elected member of the council of five hundred, was formerly one of the most virtuous, honest, and able advocates of the ci-devant parliament of Paris, and was universally respected.
Emery, son of a Jew at Metz, and counsellor in that town, was at first one of the most violent members of the left side of the constituent assembly. But on his seeing that assembly degenerate into a factious body, his revolutionary zeal began to slacken, and he was afterwards considered as one of the most moderate deputies of the left side, and he has ever since belonged to the class of citizens who wish for the return of peace and order.
Quarremerre de Quincy is known by the part he acted about 18 months ago, at the head of one of the sections of Paris in the affair of Vendemaire. His good conduct caused him to be condemned to death by the sanguinary tribunal which the directory erected on that occasion. But he was afterwards honorably acquitted by the lawful and constitutional tribunal, which the public opinion forced the directory to charge with the revision of his trial. He is the author of several well-written letters against the removal of the master-pieces of the arts out of Italy, a man of character, and amateur of the fine arts.
As to Boissy d'Anglas, likewise elected deputy to the council of five hundred, both his zeal for the return of good order and the moderation of his principles, are too well known from his past conduct in the legislative body, to need any comment.
The choice of these deputies clearly shows that the citizens of Paris, tired of the revolution, have elected such men as they think most proper to restore peace and order.
LONDON, April 24.
Mr. Pitt's crim. con. has not been confined to Thredneedle Street only, his intrigues have lately ruined the reputation of another Old Lady at Vienna.
A discovery is at length made of the meaning of an expression of Mr. Burke's, which has long been hid "from the wife and prudent." It is now discovered, that paper
currency is the "cheap defence of nations."
A Cabinet Council was held at Lord Grenville's Office, Downing Street, on Saturday, at which the Lord Chancellor, Mr. Pitt, Duke of Portland, Earl Spencer, Lord Grenville, Mr. Dundas, &c. were present, which lasted upwards of three hours, on account of the urgency of the business, which was the convention on board the fleet.
After the deliberations of the Cabinet Council were over on Saturday, at Lord Grenville's office, Earl Spencer, accompanied by the Lord Chancellor, left town for Windsor, at which place the rest of the Cabinet Ministers arrived at seven o'clock, where they met the king. A Privy Council was immediately held, which was not over till past nine o'clock, when an order of Council was passed under his Majesty's Sign Manual, and to which the Great Seal of England was affixed, granting an indemnification to the Delegates who signed the Sailor's Petition, and an assurance that their demands would be recommended to the two houses of Parliament by a Royal message. As soon as the Meeting broke up, Mr. Powell, the Messenger, left Windsor, with dispatches containing the pleasing intelligence to Lord Bridport at Portsmouth.
The Privy Council consisted of the following members:
The King's Most Excellent Majesty in person. The Lord President, The Lord Chancellor, Earl Spencer, Duke of Portland, Lord Grenville, Lord Walsingham, Sir Stephen Cottrell, Clerk of the Council.
PORTSMOUTH, April 20.
Several persons on board the fleet have been punished to-day for various offences. A sailor of the Royal William was flogged by the crew for theft, and several others were docked.
A council was held of all the admirals and captains of the fleet, on shore, this day, presided by Lord Spencer, and, it is reported, that the petition is to be complied with, by granting an addition to their pay, and allowing them the full weight of 16 ounces, instead of 12, to the pound.
To the Right Hon. and the Honorable Knights, Citizens, and Burgesses in Parliament assembled.
THE HUMBLE PETITION
Of the Seamen and Mariners on board his Majesty's ships, in behalf of themselves,
HUMBLY SHEWETH,
That your petitioners, relying on the candor and justice of your honorable house, make bold to lay their grievances before you, hoping, that when you reflect on them, you will please to give redress, as far as your wisdom shall deem necessary.
"We beg leave to remind your august assembly that the act of parliament passed in the reign of King Charles II. wherein the wages of all seamen serving on board his majesty's fleet were settled, passed at a time when the necessities of life and costs of every denomination were at least 30 per cent. cheaper than at the present time, which enabled seamen and mariners to provide better for their families, than we can now do with one half advance.
"We therefore request your hon. house will be so kind as to revive the act before mentioned, and make such amendments therein, as will enable your petitioners and their families to live in the same comfortable manner as seamen and mariners did at that time.
"Your petitioners, with all humility, laid their grievances before the hon. earl Howe, and flattered themselves with the hopes that his lordship would have been an advocate for us, as we have been repeatedly under his command, and made the British flag ride triumphantly over that of our enemies. But, to our great surprise, we find ourselves unprotected by him, who has seen so many instances of our intrepidity, in carrying the British flag into every part of the seas with victory and success.
"We profess ourselves as loyal to our sovereign, and zealous in defence of our country, as the army or militia can be, and esteem ourselves equally entitled to his majesty's munificence, therefore with jealousy we behold their pay augmented, and their out-pensions at Chelsea college encased to thirteen pounds per annum, while we remain neglected, and the out-pensions of Greenwich have only seven pounds per annum.
"We, your petitioners, therefore humbly implore that you will take these matters into consideration, and with your accustomed goodness and liberality comply with the prayer of this petition—and your petitioners, as in duty bound, will ever pay, &c.
"We, the delegates of the fleet, hereunto sign our names for the ships company.
Royal George, Valentine Joyce—John Morris Queen Charlotte, Patrick Givins—John Udferson Royal Sovereign, Joseph Greer—John Richardson London, Alexander Harding—William Ruby Glorious, Patrick Dugan—John Bethell Duke, Michael Adams—William Anderson Narrows, Thomas Allen—James Birch Marlborough, John Vassie—William Senator Ramillies, Charles Berry—George Clear Robust, David Wilson—John Servener L'Imperieux, John Witus—William Porter Defence, George Calway—James Barrick Terrible, Mark Turner—George Salked La Pompee, William Potts—James Melvin Minotaur, Dennis Lawle—George Croiland Defiance, John Saunders—John Udferson.
To the Right Honorable the Lord Commissioners of the Admiralty.
MY LORD,
"We, the seamen of his majesty's navy, take the liberty of addressing your lordships, in a humble petition—showing the many hardships and oppressions we have labored under for many years, and which we hope your lordships will redress, as soon as possible. We flatter ourselves that your lordships, together with the nation in general, will acknowledge our worth and good services, both in the American war as well as the present; for which good service your lordships' petitioners do unanimously agree in opinion that their worth to the nation and labors in industry in defence of their country, deserve some better encouragement than we meet with at present; or from any we have experienced. We, your petitioners, do not boast of our good services for any other purpose than that of putting you and the nation in mind of the respect due to us, nor do we ever intend to deviate from our former character, or far from any thing of that kind, or that an Englishman or man should turn their coats, we likewise agree in opinion, that we should suffer double before we would suffer the crown of England to be in the least imposed upon by that of any other power in the world; we therefore beg leave to inform your lordships of the grievances which we at present labor under.

We, your humble petitioners, relying, that your lordships will take into early consideration the grievances of which we complain, and do not in the least doubt but your lordships will comply with our desires, which are every way reasonable.
The first grievance which we have to complain of is, that our wages are too low, and ought to be raised, that we might be the better able to support our wives and families in a manner comfortable, and whom we are in duty bound to support as far as our wages will allow, which, we trust, will be looked into by your lordships and the honorable house of commons in parliament assembled.
We, your petitioners, beg that your lordships will take into consideration the grievances of which we complain, and now lay before you.
First—That our provisions be raised to the weight of 16 ounces to the pound, and of a better quality, and that our measures may be the same as those used in the commercial trade of this country.
Secondly—That your petitioners request your honors will be pleased to observe, there should be no flour served while we are in harbor, in any port whatever, under the command of a British flag; and also that there might be granted a sufficient quantity of vegetables of such kind as may be most plentiful in the ports to which we go; which we grievously complain and lay under the want of.
Thirdly—That your lordships will be pleased seriously to look into the state of the sick on board his majesty's ships, that they may be better attended to, and that they may have the use of such necessaries as are allowed for them in the time of their sickness, and that these necessaries be not on any account embezzled.
Fourthly—That your lordships will be so kind as to look into this affair, which is no less unreasonable, and that we may be looked upon as a number of men standing in defence of our country, and that we may in some wise have grant and opportunity to taste the sweets of liberty on shore, when in any harbor, and when we have completed the duty of our ship, after our return from sea, and that no man may be in- crocched upon his liberty, there shall be a boundary limited, and those trespassing any further, without a written order from the commanding officer, shall be punished according to the rules of the navy, which is a natural request, and congenial to the heart of man, and certainly to us, that you make the boast of being the guardians of the land.
Fifthly—That if any man is wounded in action, his pay be continued until he is cured, and discharged; and if any ship has any real grievances to complain of, we hope your lordships will readily redress them, as far as in your power, to prevent any disturbances.
It is also unanimously agreed by the fleet, that from this day, no grievances shall be received, in order to convince the nation at large that we know when to cease to ask, as well as to begin, and that we ask nothing but what is moderate, and may be granted without detriment to the nation, or injury to the service.

LONDON, April 25. A letter from Milan of the 21st ult. written by a gentleman of known respectability, states the following particulars respecting the scandalous conduct of the French generals in Italy, whose virtue and generosity we hear sometimes extolled in the most enthusiastic strain:
"The French owed the Venetians about 28 millions for grain, cattle, &c. as the inhabitants of the Continental Dominions of the republic of Venice had chiefly furnished these articles, the French have discharged this debt by bringing about a revolution in these provinces, which are likewise sure to be pillaged in the same manner as Lombardy. Immense contributions will be imposed as the price of liberty; public and private property will be plundered, and all young men forced to enlist or fly, that in the latter case their estates may be confiscated. Buonaparte, at the time he signed a treaty of peace with the pope, invited against his holiness the duchy of Urbino, which has lately been revolutionized. After having induced the grand duke of Tuscany to pay four millions of livres on condition of the French garrison being withdrawn from Leghorn, he has ordered it to be again occupied by a whole division. The very moment the state of Genoa had ransomed itself, all its subjects who possess any property in the Imperial Fiefs, were crushed with taxes. Prince Doria has paid 150,000 livres; and the Fiesques, the Balbis, and others, have been saddled with enormous sums."
"Buonaparte has extorted from Lombardy 130 millions in money and merchandise, without taking into the account the spoliations of churches, the pillage of private property, and the robberies committed with arms in hand. Three hours were sufficient for general Massena to seize on the Mount of Piety and Milan, containing precious effects to the amount of 15 millions of livres, and on the chests of the hospitals, communities, &c. The same line of conduct was observed by the French generals at Bologna, Modena, and Ferrara. All the furniture of the archduke Ferdinand, at Monza, has been pillaged. This prince had removed a considerable part of his effects to Bergamo, a neutral town; but Buonaparte ordered them to be carried off by force, and a piece of furniture worth 50,000 livres, with which the late queen of France had presented the archduchess, has fallen to the lot of his wife."
"Salicetti has by these means raised a fortune of four millions; Buonaparte, a still greater; and all the other generals and commissaries have collected considerable wealth."
"In addition to the robberies committed, Buonaparte has received considerable sums from Genoa, Venice, and the pope, on his promising to spare them. As to the direct contribution in money, Lombardy has paid upwards of 65 millions. As the capital in circulation did not amount to more than 25 millions, it became necessary to discharge the remainder in merchandise, plate, and with money borrowed at Genoa. Count Litta, after having paid 500,000 livres, has fled for fear of worse treatment, and count Grepis is to pay 900,000 livres. All the inhabitants of Milan had been ordered, on pain of confiscation and banishment, to return to town, and now the permission to withdraw to their villas is sold them for 4000 livres per month. Marchesi, the celebrated singer, having re-
fused to appear on the stage, was ordered by Buonaparte to quit Lombardy within three days, and not to return on pain of death."
INSPRUCK, March 30. The whole northern part of the Tyrol is up in arms, boys, men, old and young, are hastening with pitchforks, pikes and poles, to meet the enemy; their fury is extreme. The whole arsenal has been emptied, and new arms, every thing was acceptable to the peasants. They are to be commanded by Count Lehrbach.
March 31. Our situation has not altered either for the better or the worse: the French are still at Brixen, and General Laudohn near Meran. As the militia increases daily, it is hoped the French will be prevented from reaching this city.
AUGSBURGH, April 4. According to letters from the Tyrol, dated April 1, the rising in a mass of the inhabitants had produced nearly 100,000 men. A very numerous corps of these brave Tyroleans had joined General Laudohn, whose position is very advantageous, inasmuch as he can fall upon the enemy's rear. Hitherto there have been only affairs of out-posts, of little moment. The French corps near Botzen is computed at 24,000 men.
STUTTGARD, April 5. Letters from Innsbruck of the 31st of March, say that Count Lehrbach had put himself at the head of the troupe au mail , to direct their operations. It was expected that on the 1st or 2d of April, the French would be attacked on all points, as well before Sterzing as towards St. Meran, which General Laudohn occupies with a corps of troops, and a considerable number of peasants of the Winthaler, the road from Botzen to Sterzing, by St. Meran.
We are assured that the French force in the Tyrol under General Joubert is at most 20 or 24,000 men. The reinforcements from the Rhine march through all the Tyrol without halting: on the 2d and 3d the regiment of Caraceni, and 3 battalions of the regiment of Wartenleben, pass near Augsburg. Austrian engineers are arrived at Ulm, to construct fortifications thereabouts, and principally at Michelsberg.
ROME, March 18. A new conspiracy has just been discovered in this city. On Wednesday last, a great number of persons of all descriptions were taken up, laics, ecclesiastics, friars and soldiers. The number of the accused is said to be 600. Government has taken the most energetic measures to destroy the plot; the patrols have been doubled; the gates of the Vatican have been shut, and have been guarded by 100 Swiss, armed with muskets, and furnished with 25 cartridges each; 4 pieces of cannon have been placed at the two principal doors. The Pope's family have sent their most valuable effects to Terracina, and every individual of it is getting ready to take refuge there.
The troubles in the Marche of Anconia, and especially in the Duchy of Urbino continue; a body of about 4000 peasants are in arms, and rob and murder the travellers; they even threaten the cities. Rimini has been obliged to be put in a state of defence against them, and M. de Arrigoni has been sent by the Pope to quiet them, if possible.
ARMY OF ITALY. Head quarters at Clagenfurt, 12th Germinal, April 1, Buonaparte, General in Chief in the Army of Italy to the Executive Directory.
The divisions of General Joubert, Baraguay d'Hilliers, and Delmas, put themselves in motion on the 30th Ventose, and surrounded the enemies corps stationed on Lavis. After a most obstinate engagement we made 4000 prisoners, took three pieces of cannon, two standards, and killed 2000 men; great part of which were Tyrolean Chasseurs.
BATTLE OF TRAMIN. Meanwhile the enemy had fallen back along the right bank of the Adige, and manifested a disposition to maintain themselves in this situation. Upon the second Germinal General Joubert, at the head of the three divisions, proceeded to Salurn. General Vial carried the Bridge of Neumark, and passed the river to prevent the enemy from retreating to Botzen. The firing commenced with great warmth. The battle seemed doubtful, when General division Dumas, commanding the cavalry, pushed into the village of Tramin, made 600 prisoners, and took two pieces of cannon. By this means the "wheels of the enemy's column, commanded by General Laudohn, were unable to reach Botzen, and are wandering in the mountains."
BATTLE OF CLAUZEN. We entered the City of Botzen. General Joubert did not stop there. He left a sufficient force to pursue General Loudon, and marched directly to Clauzen. The enemy, availing themselves of the means of defence which the country afforded, had made the best dispositions. The attack was warm, and well concerted, and the event long uncertain. The light infantry clambered up inaccessible rocks, the 11th and 33d demi-brigades of infantry of the line in a close column, commanded by General Joubert in person surmounted every obstacle. The enemy's centre being penetrated, they were obliged to give way, and the route became general. We made 1500 prisoners. General Joubert arrived at Brixen, still in pursuit of the enemy. General Dumas, at the head of the cavalry, killed several of the enemy's dragoons with his own hand. He was slightly wounded by two cuts of a sabre. His aid-de-camp, d'Harmincourt, was dangerously wounded. This General, for several minutes, singly checked the progress of a squadron of the enemy upon a bridge and gave time for his own troops to rejoin him.
At Brixen, Botzen, Botzen, and different other places, we found Magazines of every kind; among other articles 50,000 quintals of flour.
Every where, as well in the Tyrol as in Carinthia and Carniola, the enemy left behind them their hospitals. I leave it to the Chief of the Etat Major and Commissary of the Army to send to the Minister at War statements of effects that have fallen into our hands.

The Gazette. PHILADELPHIA, THURSDAY EVENING, June 15.
Died, last evening, after a short illness, the Hon. JAMES BIDDLE, Esq. President of the Court of Common Pleas of the first District. His public character was uniformly marked with integrity, judgment, firmness and decision. In private life the father, brother, friend and neighbor saw in him an example not to be excelled. A warm attachment to his country, an unbounded benevolence and every manly virtue, rendered him beloved and respected by all who knew him. He was an honest and humane man as ever lived. He will be missed from his late dwelling house to-morrow morning at 9 o'clock. Thursday, June 15, 1797. Married, on Thursday evening, the 8th inst. by the Rev. Mr. Smith, JOHN GRAFF, Esq. to Miss KITTY KUSBER, both of this city.
CONGRESS.
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 14.
Mr. Reed, from the Committee of Enrolment, reported the bill for preventing privateering, which the Speaker signed accordingly.
Mr. N. Smith, from the Committee appointed for the purpose, reported a bill to prevent vessels taken by foreign powers, from ever after receiving new Registers, except by the original owners, but, though possessed by citizens of the United States, be considered as vessels of a foreign power. Mr. Potter, also reported a bill for authorizing the President, during the recess of Congress, to provide galleys, or other vessels, for purposes therein mentioned. Both these bills were twice read and committed to a Committee of the Whole to-morrow.
Mr. W. Smith said the Committee of Ways and Means had received some documents from the Treasury Department, which they thought ought to be printed for the use of the House; they had therefore commissioned him to ask leave to have them printed. Agreed. The House again resolved itself into a Committee of the Whole on the subject of fortifications, when Mr. Allen moved to add a clause to the bill, to the following effect, viz. "to empower the President of the United States, to authorize the Governor of the State of New York, to expend a certain sum, not exceeding $ for the purpose of fortifying the ports and harbours of the State of New York, provided the sum so expended be placed to the credit of the said State, on account of the balance found due from that State to the United States, and provided that that State cede the right of jurisdiction of the places upon which such Fortifications shall be erected, to the United States."
Mr. Brookes opposed the motion, as being particularly pointed at the State of New York. Mr. Havens proposed an amendment to it, which was to make it apply generally to all the debtor States, instead of confining it to the State of New York alone. Mr. Harper seconded the motion; and Mr. Allen consented to have it incorporated in his proposition. Mr. Skinner advocated the motion, and denied that it operated in a particular manner upon the State of New York. Mr. S. Smith was in favour of the motion. He wished the business of fortification to be gone into effectually, by securing every principal post in the Union, and not that small sums should be spent here and there which could produce no good effect. If he were Secretary of War, therefore, he should think it best to expend the whole 75,000 now proposed to be appropriated, on the fortifications on Mud-Island, as he did not think any particular exigency at present called for partial measures. Mr. Williams agreed with the gentleman last up, that attention ought to be paid to all the important ports in the United States; of course he should be in favour of the amendment; and he did not doubt but, rather than be continually stigmatized with being debtors, the State of New York would consent to lay out the assumed debt at the Narrows, tho' he believed, they would not like the way in which the business had been done. Mr. Brookes was opposed to the motion, as the debtor States would be deprived of all advantage from the 75,000 dollars appropriated; he also insisted that the debt said to be due from the State of N. York to the United States, ought not to be drawn into the present discussion, but if it were to be considered, it would be proper to let the subject stand alone. To do otherwise was making an odious distinction to the disadvantage of New York. [To be concluded To-Morrow.]

Asguth, bound from Lisbon to Sallee, with 10000 dolls. on board, was captured by a Frene privateer, who took out the money and put it in the privateer, and put men on board to bring her into Ceuat, but on the 14th of April was captured by admiral Jervis, who liberated her and desired the captain to go to Cadiz to seek redress for the money, and on the night of the 6th, the captain ran the ship on shore 6 miles to the southward of Cadiz. The captain and crew on their arrival at Cadiz, were put in irons in the castle, called Santa Peter.
SALEM, June 9.
CADIZ BLOCKADED.
Capt. John Barton, from Cadiz, has politely handed us the following: His Britannic Majesty's ship Captain, off Cadiz, 11th April, 1797. Sir, In consequence of the unprovoked Declaration of War from his Catholic Majesty against his Britannic Majesty and the British Nation, it is found right that Spain should no longer have any trade. I have therefore the honor to acquaint you, that no neutral vessel shall hereafter be suffered to enter or leave the port of Cadiz, without having obtained my permission or that of the Commander in Chief of the British Fleet—that from this moment Cadiz is to be considered as a Blockaded port. I have the honor to be, &c. HORATIO NELSON. To the Danish Consul.
NEW-YORK, June 14.
Yesterday arrived here the ship America, capt. Baxter, in 45 days from Cadiz. Capt. Baxter informs us, that the Spaniards were fitting out in that harbour, a fleet of 33 sail of the line, besides 15 frigates, and 7 fire-ships, with the greatest expedition, inasmuch that the workmen in the naval yards and on board the shipping were working double tides—that the newly appointed admiral Don Masserado, was a great favorite with the crews, to whom he had been peculiarly kind, in recommending an entire new stock of provisions, &c. and an advance of 30 dollars per month, which the Government complied with—that this Fleet was to be joined by 7 French and 7 Spanish ships of the line from Carthagena, and that when this junction was made, they were determined to attack admiral Jervis, and drive him from the Mediterranean, or perish in the attempt. It is said that the King of Spain is so highly incensed against a number of the officers of the late fleet defeated by admiral Jervis, that he is determined to punish them severely. The Santissima Trinidad was nearly ready for sea, and is to make one of the above fleet. It was said the whole would sail from Cadiz in 20 days. On the 26th April, capt. Baxter passed through the fleet of adm. Jervis, who were then blockading the port of Cadiz, consisting of 22 sail of the line and 5 frigates: he was ordered on board admiral Parker's ship, when, after a strict examination, was permitted to proceed. The first lieutenant of the ship informed him that before the fleet left Lisbon, the Portuguese had sent an ambassador to Paris to treat for peace, and that he expected they would not permit the British fleet to enter their ports for the future. On the passage capt. B. was boarded by a French privateer, and treated politely.

Lancaster, Harrisburg, Carlisle, Shippensburg and Sunbury STAGES. THE public are requested to take notice, that the partnership which has for some time subsisted between Mathias Slough of Lancaster, and William Geer, is now dissolved; but, not as M. Slough insinuates to the public without just cause; as will more fully appear by a letter on the 27th December last, a recital of which is not now deemed necessary. Any gentleman who wishes to be more circumstantially informed of the merits of this business, by applying to W. Geer may have the perusal of M. Slough's letter, and then can be at full liberty to determine whether or not W. Geer is not perfectly justified in attaching himself to any other person in the prosecution of the Stage conveyance from Philadelphia to Shippensburg, or any other place. Now from the liberal and generous support the public were pleased to confer on the first effort in this business, William Geer, in conjunction with Messrs. Reily, Weed and Wimer, is determined to prosecute and carry it on, with every care, attention and dispatch that a zeal to oblige the public can possibly exert. The above company, who are amply provided with carriages, horses, and every appurtenance to render the passage safe and commodious, inform those who wish to patronize and encourage the undertaking, that they can take their seats at George Weed's, the sign of the White Horse, Market Street, Philadelphia, on every Monday and Friday, to proceed to Lancaster, Harrisburg, Carlisle and Shippensburg. The fare as hitherto established. For the further accommodation of the public, a Stage will start every Wednesday from the house of Samuel Elder, in Harrisburg, arrive at Sunbury in Northumberland county, every Thursday, and return from thence and arrive at Harrisburg every Saturday, so that passengers destined for Lancaster or Philadelphia, may proceed on Monday.
WILLIAM GEER. Lancaster, Jan. 27, 1797. N. B.
