Temesvar, in Hungary, Feb. 11. A letter from Pakraz, in Slavonia, dated the 10th, mentions, that on the day preceding, the Turk in fortress of Gradisca, in Serbia, was summoned to surrender; but the commander having refused and fired upon our troops, the latter made an attack with so much fury, as to dismount their batteries, and rendered their guns useless; a great number of the houses were reduced to ashes; and this day the fortress surrendered. Near Kobaty, we took from the Turks three ships, of which two were laden with grain, and a third with ammunition. The latter adds, that Dubery and Novi surrendered, without resistance.

About an hundred triumphal arches, magnificently illuminated, will be disposed in the principal quarters, and form an admirable spectacle. The obelisk raised near an 100 feet in the Bruten-hof, opposite the Stadholderian palace, attracts the attention of the curious. Eleven pieces of superb fire-works are preparing there.

L O N D O N, March 9. One of those obstinate priests, whose bigoted zeal compels him to oppose the wholesome regulations which the Emperor is desirous of establishing in the university of Louvain, and whose rank in that seminary is called Rector Magnifique, an office not only lucrative but honorable, gave himself the trouble to travel post-haste to Louvain, some days past, to remonstrate with Count Trauttmansdorff, against these religious innovations, as he called them; protesting most vehemently that he never could consent to them. The Minister heard him with great good temper, and when he had finished his harangue, enquired what his reasons were for objecting; but as Rome governs by opinion, and not by reason, and under the artful and fallacious pretext of conscience, this pious incendiary declared that his conscience forbid to him consent; upon which the Minister, highly applauding his integrity, assured him, that he would put his conscience perfectly at rest on that subject, by divesting him of his office and giving it to another, whom he instantly named; and turning upon his heel, left the priest to his reflections.
The reverend casuist was so confounded at the unexpected issue of his holy pilgrimage to Brussels, and so incensed at the irony of both clergy and laity on the occasion, that he retired immediately, and it is said, means to shut himself up in a cloister, and brood over his misfortune and disgrace in silence and obscurity.
Amatoribus Artis Pugnatiorae quae vulgo vocatur B O X I N G. Mr. Humphreys having reduced this polite art to a regular science, presents his most humble respects to a generous public, and begs leave to inform the relations, guardians, and friends of the rising generation, that he has opened the city academy for their instruction, and shall continue to teach the manœuvres of boxing secundum artem , at the following very low prices:

AUGUSTA, March 29. A letter from Washington county, dated March 26, says, "The Indians seem to be very numerous in this county. Last Sunday week they killed and scalped Lieut. Hogan, near Kemp's Fort; on Friday after a Mr. Daniel met with the same cruel death; and on Tuesday last they killed Mr. David Jackson's family, consisting of his wife and four children, his brother and two negroes, and scalped another young girl." "On the same day Capt. Wood, of the State troops, with four of his men, accompanied by Capt. Kemp, went reconnoitring on the river Oconee, and near the Long Bluff came on sign of about 30 or 35 Indians; upon which Capt. Wood's party turned back towards the Fort, but had rode but a small distance when the Indians fired at them, and killed one man on the spot. Capt. Wood is missing; we have since found his horse without saddle or bridle, and very much bloody, from which circumstance we suppose he was either killed or taken. The savages have burnt three houses near Irwin's Fort, and killed a number of cattle and hogs."  SAVANNAH, April 3. Extract of a letter from Colonel James Maxwell to General Jackson, dated 29th ult. "On last evening a party of Indians attacked Capt. Lewis, at Mr. Shepard's plantation, the upper settlement on Midway. He had been out on a scout to Beard's Creek, and across that to Canouchie, and had returned about the middle of the afternoon, turned out his horses, and several of his men had left camp to procure forage. A little before sunset the Indians were discovered coming up behind some out-houses. The men had just time to fly to their arms, and conceal themselves, when the enemy marched up within 40 yards, discovered the white party, and fired. The fire was instantly returned, which killed one Indian on the spot, and wounded two more. The savages immediately run, and Capt. Lewis ordered his horses to be caught, and pursued them about a mile to where they had
left their bundles, and where they dispersed. One of the wounded bled very freely at some distance, the other not so much. Capt. Lewis says his men behaved with the greatest bravery, and that it was with difficulty he could restrain them from charging the enemy previous to a knowledge of their numbers.—The exact number of the Indians could not be ascertained".
April 24. Last week a party of Indians, six or seven, came down to the settlements of Liberty County, and took off six wenchies and a boy, the property of Andrew Maybank, Esq. They were closely pursued by Col. Maxwell, as far as the Alatamaha, but had, previous to his arrival made their escape over that river.
