A few Ton of excellent UPLAND HAY. May 17.
G. SHAW, Respectfully informs the public, he has removed from Robert Johnston, Apothecary, No. 20, Green-street, Sub. London, a fresh and very considerable supply of his highly esteemed Medicine.
AWARE of the depredations made on every public medicine of established repute, and extensive sale, R. Johnston, obtained the King of England's Patent for his invention, not "to recommend" but "to distinguish" Whitehead's Essence of Mustard from SPURIOUS IMITATIONS. "Five years have now elapsed since Mr. Johnston first made known to the world this very extraordinary medicine; during this short period, its efficacy has been in every way demonstrated, that its sale has far exceeded any former example; comparatively there are few families in England, or the United States which have not either heard of or experienced its beneficial effects and with heartfelt satisfaction he had the happiness to declare Whitehead's Essence of Mustard to cure more persons afflicted with Rheumatism, Gout, Lumbago, Palsy, Complaints of the Stomach and other Painsful Maladies."
Than all the Medicines ever before made public, indeed, the instances of its efficacy and letters of acknowledgment from "the most respectable characters" are so numerous that a large volume could not possibly contain them. It has also obtained the approbation of the most eminent men of the faculty and is now used by the life and recommendation of the first families in England, Ireland and America. A COUNTERFEIT. R. JOHNSTON has reason to believe a large quantity under the name of "Improved Essence of Mustard" as well as many other "new fangled" for America, and orders his only to prevent imposition and disappointment. He therefore requests the affected to be particular in the purchase of his bottles, boxes, labels, and bill of directions which are closely copied, and words "by royal authority" artfully substituted for the words "by the king's patent" which may elude common observation. The Genuine is distinguished by the signature of R. Johnston, in his own hand writing on each label, and as an additional security is further signed on the outside wrapper by his only agent for the United States, G. SHAW, No. 129, Chestnut street, Philadelphia, by whom it is sold wholesale and retail, in pills and in a fluid state at one dollar each, box or bottle. FOR CHILBLAINS, SPRAINS AND BRUISES. It is a certain and effectual remedy, seldom requiring more than three or four applications. To the candid and liberal of the FACULTY, R. Johnston respectfully submits the following observations. The Fluid Essence of Mustard, is an embrocation worthy their particular attention. It differs in its nature from all others, and is out of the beaten track of general practice—It is an active stimulant, easily contrived, may be either increased or diminished in its strength by the different methods of use, it is both elegant and convenient and is frequently found in the extemporaneous prescriptions of their brethren in England. The above Genuine Medicine, as well as many others of the first celebrity may be had by appointment of G. Shaw, or Mr. G. Bailey, Wilmington, Dr. Barrill, Maiden Lane, New-York, Messrs. Bailey and Walker, Charleston, William Black, Salem, (N. J.) Charles Hunsitch, Lancaster, A. C. Jordens, Norfolk, John Roberts, do. David Keen, Sweet Springs, Virginia, R. Lee, Baltimore, I. & J.

Richard Winter & Co. Savannah, and in every principal town in the United States. N. B. The public are desired to enquire for Whitehead's Essence of Mustard, all others being a bale and spurious imitation. GEO. SHAW, 129, Chestnut street, where Venders may be supplied. "Caution against Counterfeits." Agents are appointed by G. Shaw in every principal town of the United States, and there is no uncertainty of purchasing the Genuine Essence of Mustard in any part of America, unless it is signed on the outside wrapper by G. Shaw, No. 129, Chestnut street, Philadelphia, where shopkeepers are supplied and a liberal discount allowed them. May 13.

Domestic Articles. SAVANNAH, April 20. Major General Pinckney, and Brigadier General Washington, accompanied by Major Rutledge, arrived at St. Mary's, on the 8th inst. and were received by the inhabitants of that place, with much respect and hospitality. The following Address was banded to Gen. Pinckney. Camden County, April 9th, 1799. SIR, THE inhabitants of St. Mary's and its vicinity, congratulate you on your safe arrival to this extreme southern boundary of our happy country, and though situated as we are, remote from the seat of the Federal Government, our principles are pure, undivided, and perfectly attached to that government, which the great family of American people formed for themselves. We pray you to accept our sincere thanks for your patriotism and firmness on the late trying occasion, your embassy to the French nation; but from your former well spent life, in the service of your country, we were sanguine in our expectations, nor were we disappointed. Our Executive has given us a fresh instance of his paternal care, in sending you and your well tried fellow-soldier, Brigadier General Washington, on your present mission, and in calling you to your distinguished military ranks; and be assured, Sir, that the people of this country, will suffer no foreign influence to dilute or swerve them for a moment from their attachment to the Federal Government, which they are bound to support. Wishing you health and a long life, I am, Sir, in behalf of the Citizens of St. Mary's and its vicinity, With due respect, Your most obedient servant, THOS. KING, Maj. C. M. C. C.
THE ANSWER. St. Mary's, April 10th, 1799. SIR, I BEG leave to return my thanks to the inhabitants at St. Mary's and its vicinity, for the congratulations which they have been pleased to offer me through you, on my arrival at the southern boundary of the United States. It is with pleasure, that I behold at this extreme point of the Union so many marks of happiness, and so many proofs of increasing prosperity. A country, which but a few years since, had nothing but its native richness to display, now presents to the view, the pleasing picture of agriculture, and of population. It is of consequence to the United States, that its frontier should be inhabited, and should be cultivated. It is of still greater consequence, that it should be inhabited by citizens, unbiased by foreign influence, and pure in their attachment to the Federal Government, under whose fostering care, they can alone enjoy those general benefits, which are the great family, the American people are so right to expect. The sentiments which you express on this subject, are the assurances which you offer to our country, that she has every thing to expect from your patriotism and your virtue. In answer to what you are pleased to say in relation to my mission to France, I hope that it is useless to assure you, of the satisfaction which I derive from the approbation that you bestow on my conduct. When I undertook that mission, it was with views fraught with peace, and with feelings fully disposed to meet with joy, any honorable propositions, for a speedy accommodation of existing differences. America has watched with an attentive eye, and she has seen the event. The objects of my present visit, are of a nature far different indeed. Preparations for war, and measures of defence now occupy my time. Having resumed my military profession, I view with pleasure at my side, the gallant Brigadier General Washington. It is grateful to the heart of a soldier, when he is called again into the field, to be joined by those who have shared the toils of the day, in the maintenance of a cause so dear to us as the establishment of American independence. At the same time that I request you to transmit my answer to the inhabitants of St. Mary's and its vicinity, permit me to offer you my thanks, acknowledgements for the very handsome terms in which you have conveyed to me, the expression of their sentiments, and my assurances of the sincere esteem, with which I remain, Sir, Your most obedient Servant, CHARLES C. PINCKNEY. Major THOMAS KING, commanding the Camden County Battalion.
NEW-LONDON, May 20. The clerical lunatic, confined in Litchfield jail, for money squandered away, is week after week filling the pages of "the Hum Bug," with his foolish insinuations. Having tired his readers, with the pretended claims of his mother-in-law, on the general government; he has lately employed his feeble pen against the Debtor law of this state. "No man e'er felt the balter draw With good opinion of the law !" A petition has gone forth from the prison of Litchfield, and is now circulating for signatures; praying for the abolition of imprisonment for debt. Undoubtedly it will meet with much support from a certain set of people whose daily cry is "overturn and overturn!"

Letter from the King of Naples to General Pignatelli, commander in chief at Naples during the absence of his Majesty, dated Palermo, Jan. 15. "At the time when, from the urgency of circumstances and the good disposition manifested by my People to which in your former letters, you have done justice, I expected general rising in defence of the capital of my kingdom. I received yours of the 12th inst. which informs me of the disconcerted state which has been concluded in consequence of the most absurd instruction given by you to persons directed to negotiate with the enemy, and by which I see the greatest part of my realm, though unconquered, given up with a view of sparing the capital, when it is obvious that these concessions must lead to the irretrievable loss of my whole kingdom. I have been more surprised that you have acted in this unwarrantable manner, as you had no powers from me for such negotiations. The introductions I left with you were of a tendency very different. In concluding such a treaty, you may either have forgot you have a master or to remember it only for the purpose of imposing the most scandalous and disgraceful terms on him." "You may suppose how much I am incensed at finding the trust I had reposed in you, betrayed in such a manner, and how indignant I feel against your unworthy Adversaries." "F. R."
March 27. We have authority to state on the examination of Mr. Pierpoint, an American Gentleman, whose name was mentioned in the public papers of yesterday as having been taken to the Duke of Portland's Office in custody, on suspicion of an unlawful correspondence with France, the most satisfactory explanation was given of the whole of that Gentleman's conduct, and every cause of suspicion entirely removed. Two other American Gentlemen, who had been prevented from leaving the Kingdom until they had been examined, were dismissed at the same time.
THE HAMBURGH MAIL. Lindau, on the Lake of Constance, March 7. Seven in the Evening. The War has commenced in our neighbourhood. In the night between the 5th and 6th inst. the French passed the Rhine at Sarganz, between Chur (Coire) and Feldkirch, and attacked the Corps under general Auffenberg, which they obliged to retreat, as the communication between him and General Hotze was cut off. This morning, however, he again advanced with his army from Feldkirch, and drove the French again over the Rhine. The Republicans afterwards made attempt to pass the river in several other places, and we have very distinctly heard a cannonade during this whole day. The Regiment of Stein, according to the accounts already received, has lost 40 men killed and wounded. With any farther particulars we are not as yet acquainted. To day four Companies of the Regiment of Benden entered this town. A considerable train of artillery has likewise arrived, and been placed in the fortifications. The communication between Lindau and Switzerland is prohibited, and only reconnaissance boats are suffered to go out. ULM, March 9. This day a Courier from General Hotze, at Coire, with dispatches dated the 6th inst. passed through this town. He brings accounts that the French, on the 6th, attacked the Austrians at several points, but were completely repulsed. General Hotze has advanced from Coire into the canton of Glaris, and been joined by great numbers of discontented Swiss. March 10. The Army of General Jourdan, which was in full march by Stockach and Riedlingen, has, halting turned toward Schaffhausen and Constance, to support General Massena.
BANKS of the Leach, March 8. The following are the accounts of the movements of the Armies in Swabia: A Courier from Rastadt having arrived in the night between the 2d and 3d inst. at the Head Quarters at Friedberg, with advice that the French on the 1st inst. had passed the Rhine at Kehl, eight battalions on the 4th passed the Leach, and by noon on the 5th reached Ulm, for which place a park of artillery of 123 pieces of cannon and 200 ammunition wagons, likewise set out. General Frohm, of the Corps of Engineers, and Major Dedowich, likewise proceeded, with a dispatch to Ulm, on the 4th, to superintend the completion of the Fortifications. The latter, who two years ago directed the construction of the new fortifications at Ulm, will in case of a siege, conduct the defence of the place. Ulm will soon receive a garrison of 15,000 men, and be provisioned for all speed, for which contributions will be required from the whole Country. It is supposed that the army of Jourdan, reinforced by some Columns from Switzerland may arrive in the vicinity of Ulm on the 10th. Within these three days 80,000 Austrian Troops have passed the Leach at Augsburg, Donauwerth, and Landsberg, and will soon be followed by the remainder. Before these movements, the Austrian army in Bavaria was estimated at 115,000 men. March 9. The march of the Austrian Troops through the middle of Swabia still continues. To day the Head quarters of the Archduke Charles are at Mindelheim; the army has already arrived in the vicinity of Memmingen.
STUTGARD, March 9. According to the latest accounts received of the French Army, General Jourdan is still
at Villingen, and General St. Cyr at Rottweil. There seems to be a general movement among all their troops 22,000 men, who were at Freudenstadt, after the departure of the left column, were still there yesterday. At Rottweil, Tubingen, Reutlingen, &c. only patrols have yet arrived; and at Nagold there is but a small number of French Troops. The most active preparations are making for the defence of Ulm. In the Tyrol, where General Bellegarde commands, the greatest preparations are making; the Tyrolese Riflemen hold themselves in readiness to march. All the inhabitants of Ulm who have vaulted cellars have orders to clear them, that they may be made magazines for ammunition. Count Kerpau is to be commandant of Ulm, who, two years ago so bravely defended Ingolstadt against the army of Moreau. The army of Massena will join the Italian army. In Switzerland, 20,000 militia will be marched to the frontiers. Freyburg, and all the Brisgau, are in possession of the French Troops under general Souham.
UPPER RHINE, March 11. The Commandant of Philippsburg has had a verbal conference with general Bernadotte, in which it has been agreed to desist from hostilities on both sides, till orders from higher authorities shall be received. General Ney has still his head quarters at Schwenzingen.
STRASBURGH, March 10. The latest accounts from the army in Swabia state, that it is now on its march for Moskirch, where the advanced guard is already arrived. The right wing is extended beyond Stockach; while the left has turned from Freudenstadt on the side of Rottweil, and does not march by Rottweil and Tubingen, as was at first ordered. A great quantity of artillery and ammunition has passed the Kniebis. General Jourdan and the Archduke Charles are advancing directly towards each other.
RASTADT, March 10. Yesterday the French ministers received dispatches from Paris, by an extraordinary Courier, and in the evening gave in the following note to the deputation: "The undersigned Ministers Plenipotentiary of the French Republic have received orders from the Directory to communicate to the Deputation of the Empire the proclamation of general Massena, commander in chief of the French army in Helvetia. They have likewise orders to avail themselves of this opportunity to renew the declaration in their note of the 1st inst. that the march of the armies is only to be considered as a measure imposed by circumstances, which will make no alteration in the ardent and sincere wish for peace by which the French government is actuated; and they are formally commissioned to renew the assurance that the Directory is still ready to conclude a peace with the Empire, provided the Empire will declare against the march of the Russians."
March 11. Count Leichbach leaves this to day, and has obtained Passports from the French Ministers. In the event of the Congress continuing its deliberations, it is stated that he will return. The family of the Elector of Bavaria has arrived at Munich. Baron Hompesch is his new prime Minister. All in the Duchy of Wirttemberg is tranquil.
LUCERN, March 5. The following are the accounts received from Naples, of the date Feb. 10:—The Revolution here advances rapidly. The Abruzzi's are already organized, and the civil authorities appointed. They form three departments—upper Abruzzo (formerly Terranova) lower Abruzzo (lately Chieti), and Pescara (lately Aquila). All the three have a common Government at Pescara. A half brigade of 3000 men is raising; as also two Squadrons of Cavalry, and four Companies of Artillery Men; they fill very rapidly. The late Duke of Andria, Hettore Caraffa, commands them. They write from Turin, that Prince Charles of Casignan has off'd, in a patriotic Letter, his palace, his services, and a part of his property to be employed for the use of his Country: the Government have returned him thanks in a polite answer.
PETERSBURG, Feb. 26. Field Marshal Count Swarrows sets out to-morrow, to take the command of the Austrian Army in Italy.
It is now reported that Buonaparte has declared himself Sultan of Egypt: In consequence of the reconciliation with Pasha Ogloz, one half of the Russian and Turkish Army, which was to have been employed as a part of the army for Italy, and the other half for Egypt, to join the Army of the Pacha of Acre, who has assured the Porte that Buonaparte cannot hold out long, though he has thrown up fortifications which are almost impregnable. Many thousands of auxiliary Troops are on their march for Egypt, from Algiers, Tunis, Tripoli, and Morocco. The Batavian Minister must now very soon leave the Turkish Dominions.
FRANKFORT, March 12. We learn that the French have attempted to pass the Rhine on the Frontiers of the Grisons, or of the Vorarlberg, but that they were repulsed there by the Austrians. It is said also that Engagements have taken place in the Country of the Grisons, which have terminated in favour of the Austrians. We may expect official details on this subject.
Letters from Trent state, that intelligence had been received there that some English and Russian troops, who were last heard of at Trieste, having joined the Lazzaroni, had attacked and retaken Naples, and had driven

the French back to Capua. We await the confirmation of this intelligence before we give it credit.
VIENNA, March 9.
A broad courier has already arrived with the intelligence that the French had passed the Rhine and has also brought the proclamation issued on that occasion. By the same conveyance the Archduke Charles has announced that he has been compelled to pass the Lech, in order to give the enemy battle as soon as place and circumstances will permit.
STUTTGARD, March 9.
The Archduke Charles has his head quarters at Mindenheim, and his army has advanced as far as Memmingen. Gen. Jourdan has halted at Villingen, and Gen. St. Dyr at Rotweil. Their patrols have pushed as far as Rotthenbach, Tubingen, Rendingen, and Nagold; but the route of the main body of the Republican army, which was advancing against Ulm, by Stockach and Riedlingen, has, on advice of the dislodge sustained by the column under Massena, turned towards Schaffhausen and Constance for his support.
BORDERS OF THE LECH, March 8.
As soon as a courier, who arrived from Rastadt at the head quarters of Friedberg, on the night of the 2d instant, had brought the news of the French having crossed the Rhine eight columns of infantry passed the Lech, and arrived at Ulm on the 5th. These troops have been furnished with a park of artillery, consisting of 120 pieces of cannon 200 ammunition waggons. Two officers of engineers, general Frohn and major Dedovich, have received orders since the 4th, to repair with all possible dispatch to that city, in order to inspect the fortifications of it, and cause the necessary repairs to be made. At this moment they are supplying the place with provisions for a garrison of 10,000 men, and the surrounding villages have been called upon to furnish their contingent. It is thought here, that as soon as the army of Jourdan shall approach our quarters, a column of the army of Switzerland will join him.
The day before yesterday the Archduke Charles arrived at Munich, and returned this day to the head quarters of Friedberg. He stopped at Augsburg no longer than while he was dining with the Elector of Treves. Orders were given that none of the wives of officers or soldiers should follow the army. The head quarters will be transferred to-morrow to Welkenheim; and after to-morrow to Memmingen. The troops are filled with ardor, and repose entire confidence in their general. It appears to be the intention of the Archduke to support his right wing at Ulm, and his left at Kempten. Memmingen will be the centre. By means of these positions, his Royal Highness will preserve his communication with the army of General Hotze.
CONSTANTINOPLE, Feb. 13.
Sir Sydney Smith is to sail from hence to Egypt, in company with the Turkish Admiral, with a fleet consisting of 20 men of war and several transports.
STUTTGARD, March 7.
We learn from Augsburg of the 4th the following news:
"Part of the Imperial army passed the Lech this morning. His Royal Highness the Archduke Charles is arrived here from his head quarters at Friedberg, and has caused the Hussar regiment of the Emperor to be before him. Several other regiments have passed this town and its environs."
The column of Jourdan's army under general St. Cyr's command, which marched from Freudenstadt on the 4th did not go to Horb; it took the road to Rotweil; which causes it to be imagined that it is intended to go to the Lake of Constance, instead of marching directly upon Ulm. Letters from this town dated the 5th, say, that great quantities of ammunition and artillery were expected from Gunzburg.
The corps under general Ferino which passed the Rhine at Basle, is composed of three half brigade, six regiments of horse chasseurs, two companies of artillery, and several companies of flying artillery.
General Ermouh has published a proclamation, dated 13th Ventose, at Gengenbach, in which he orders that the horses, &c. belonging to the post-offices shall not be liable to requisition, as it is of the utmost consequence that the post in the countries occupied by the French armies should suffer no interruption. The houses in which the post-offices are shall not have any troops quartered on them, and the post masters shall not have any services imposed upon them.
A proclamation from our Sovereign, dated 3d of March, orders persons of every description, civil and military, to remain at their posts, and to take care that the inhabitants of the commune through which the French pass keep quiet and behave towards those troops, in the manner agreed upon by the treaty of peace between his Highness and the Republic, according to that treaty, his Highness is assured that the French will not exercise any hostility against his states.
LONDON, March 22.
We have been favoured with a copy of the following letter, which, we presume, will be acceptable to our readers, as it points out, in the man who has achieved so much for this country, a union of the characters of the Christian and Hero:
Copy of a letter from Lord Nelson to his Lady, Vanguard, St. Peter's Island, off Sardinia, May 24, 1798.
My Dearest Fanny, I ought not to call what has happened to the Vanguard, by the cold name of accident; I believe firmly it was the Almighty's goodness to check my commettitur vanity. I hope it has made me a better officer, as I feel it has made me a better man. I kiss with all humility the rod Figure to yourself
on Sunday evening, at sun set, a vain man walking in his cabin with a squadron around him, who looked up to their chief to lead them to glory and in whom their chief placed the firmest reliance, that the proudest ships of equal numbers belonging to France would have bowed their flags and with a very rich prize lying by him—Figure yourself on Monday morning when the fun rose this proud conceited man, his ship dismasted, his fleet dispersed, and himself in such distress that the meanest frigate out of France would have been an unwelcome guest. But it has pleased Almighty God to bring us into a safe port, where, we are refused the rights of humanity, yet the Vanguard will, in two days get to sea again as an English man of war.
March 25.
Or letters from Dublin by the Mails of this morning inform us, that the State Prisoners, whom we have already mentioned to have received notice to embark in a vessel fitted for their reception, have since sailed for Fort George, in Scotland. Every accommodation that humanity could suggest, consistent with safety, was provided for them.
Yesterday dispatches were received from Sir Morton Eden, at the Court of Vienna; and also Mr. Thomas Grenville, at Berlin, which were immediately forwarded to Lord Grenville, at Dropmore. Those from Vienna contain a confirmation of the defeat of the French forces by General Hotze.
THE GRISONS.
The country of the Grisons is probably the highest in all Europe. It forms an assembly of the valleys upon the summit of the Rhaetian and the Julian Alps. Each of these valleys is separated from the other by a chain of mountains, so elevated that the waters which flow from them take an opposite direction. On the western side are the valleys of Mason and Dissentis, the canal of which forms the sources of the Rhine, discharging itself into the Mediterranean. On the eastern side are the sources of the Rhine, which flows into the Northern sea. The eastern part of the valley, which forms the source of the Rhine, is so high, that not even rye or any fruit can be produced upon it. But notwithstanding this, it is very populous, watered by the Inn, which, after traversing the Tyrol, discharges itself together with the Danube into the Black Sea. On the south of these mountains the waters increase. That of the Adda, which passes through the Tyrol, and uniting with the Po, falls into the Adriatic sea. The Valteline and the country of Bormio form a deep valley, which makes the point of junction between Italy, Switzerland, the Tyrol, and the country of the Grisons, and renders it of great importance in a military point of view. Its extent is fifteen, and it varies in its breadth from one to three leagues. On the east, it forms a communication by the valley of Freil and various other passages, with the Tyrol, by Patchiava and Bernina to Engadine and the Tyrol, and, finally, by Chiavene and Sopra Porto to Eugadine, and thence thro' Splungen to the valley of the Rhine. The Valteline is separated from Italy by a chain of very high mountains at different distances, by passable hills, in the eastern part of which they are separated from Bergamasque and Berlion, but insensibly decline between the Valteline and the Milanese, so as to afford an easy access both to an army and whatever artillery may accompany it.
Ulm is to have a garrison of 10,000 men; Field Marshal Count Kerpén, who defended Ingolstadt against Moreau, is to be commandant, with the Engineer General Fahr, under his orders. The city is provisioned for a considerable period.
The Margrave of Bada has published a proclamation like the Duke of Württemberg, to regulate the conduct of his subjects during the passage of the French.
Letters from the Hague of the 22d instant, state, that the fleet of the Texel was on the eve of sailing in conjunction with the Dunkirk squadron upon some secret expedition; which, however, it observes, will not be so considerable as that which was to have taken place in the summer of 1797.
We stated in our paper of yesterday, that French papers of the 15th and 16th had reached town, and we mentioned in a few lines what was the chief intelligence which they brought. A paper of the 17th also reached town in the course of the day.
The two councils have passed a Decree, by which all privateers are forbidden, and the sailors who compose their crews are ordered to repair to Brest, in order to man the fleet which is fitting out there, and which they are making every effort to prepare for sea. We heartily wish them success in these efforts convinced their ships will never leave their ports without finding their way into ours.
Another decree has passed to compel all Foreigners in France to wear the Cockade of their country. The precautions which the Directory are taking in the Interior prove the ungladness and the embarrassment of their situation, in spite of the pains which they take to conceal it.
Our readers will see with pleasure that the Insurrection in Belgium gains additional strength. The time is now come in which it may prove of material assistance to the enemies of France, and in which it may in its turn receive considerable assistance from them.
The Imperial Troops having passed the Inn, was considered by the French Directory as a sign of War; they in consequence of it prepared entertainment for man and horse.
The following Letter from Stralsund, in a Paris Paper of the 16th, gives the latest account of the position of the French Army.
"Stralsund, March 9.
Authentic information has been at length received here respecting the Army of Prince Charles. The General received on the morning of the 3d, at his Head quarters, dispatches from Rastadt, which acquainted him with the passage of the Rhine by the French Ar-
mies. He immediately issued orders to the body which formed his Vanguard, and which for some time past had been cantoned, in opposition to the Articles of the Treaties concluded between Austria and France, between Ulm and Augsburg, to advance by forced marches towards Ulm. Two battalions arrived there on the night of the 4th, and four more at twelve o'clock the next day. On the 3d, preparations were made to cross the Lech, and in the night the army was collected together, and several Regiments of Cavalry and Infantry, with a considerable body of Artillery, effected the passage on the 4th and 5th. All these troops advanced by forced marches on the side of Weissenheim and Ulm. The Head quarters were to be transferred to Augsburg on the 16th, Prince Charles having arrived at that place on the 4th.
Jourdan's Head Quarters transferred on the 6th from Homburg to Villingen. He was on the 7th to set out for Dillingen, and to march this day to Bidingen on the Danube.
All the troops in Helvetia have advanced to the frontiers of that Republic. The centre is in the Canton of St. Gall, opposite to Vorarlberg and the Head quarters, of Massena, have been transferred from Zurich to St. Gall, and from thence to Altstätten in the canton of Rhine-thal. The left is on the Lake of Constance, and the right has advanced on the side of the Grison, where several actions have already taken place between the Austrians and French.
The Head quarters of the army of Observation are still at Mannheim. A part of the troops which have marched through this town are to advance by Bruchsal to Philippsburg, which has not been hitherto-blockaded up, on the Right Bank of the Rhine.
A small Corps which passed the Mein near Mentz in the night of the 4th, entered Darmstadt the next day. Frankford had not been taken possession of when the last accounts from that place came away. However all the troops between the Mein and the Lahn were in movement for the purpose of marching forward.
By this Day's Mail.
BOSTON, May 20.
The political Intelligence received by the several late arrivals from England is extremely unsatisfactory;—we have stated the news as it was received, leaving the public to judge of its consistency. It is proper, however, to observe, that capt. Wood, who brought the paper containing the letter of Messena, left Liverpool the 4th of April, when the news of the French defeat was again renewed, and generally believed; but through the hurry of the business he omitted to furnish himself with the documents on which the belief was founded.
The Independent Chronicle of this morning contains London dates two days later than we were able to procure. The Intelligence is important; "That Government had received dispatches acquainting that the main armies of the Archduke Charles, and gen. Jourdan, had met on the Rhine about the middle of March, that an obstinate engagement ensued, in which the French were defeated with the loss of 7000 prisoners, and an immense number killed; that the left wing of the French army, commanded by Gen. Cyr, after this defeat, was foot in his retreat by general Haudendorf, and almost totally cut to pieces; that gen. Jourdan with the rest of the army had made a hasty retreat to Basle; and that gen. Massena was attacked about the same time, and also defeated."
It was reported that Mr. Grenville had succeeded in his mission to the Court of Berlin.
The Frigate Boston, built by subscription of the Merchants in this town, will be launched from her ways This Day at 12 o'clock.
The short period since the keel of the Boston frigate was laid, her admirable construction, and workmanship, reflect honor on the patriotic subscribers, the acting Committee, and the expert workman, to whom she owes her existence; while they show the skill of Americans in naval tactics, and prove that with proper exertions, she has resources sufficient to render her an equal rival, in a short time, adequate to the protection of her flag and her commerce, and the vindication of our national character.
We understand, that The President of the United States will attend the Launch this day, accompanied by the Lieutenant Governor, and other distinguished characters; it is therefore hoped, that the inhabitants, who reside on the streets leading to the yard, particularly in Middle-Street will display their usual politeness in removing every obstacle that might impede the accommodation and convenience of the respectable and numerous spectators who will attend the scene.

Postscript.
BOSTON, May 20.
Capt. Wood, from Liverpool, has arrived with the Star, a London Paper of the 15th inst. which contains the latest accounts we have received.
From the STAR.
LONDON, March 30.
This morning government received dispatches of considerable importance, brought to Yarmouth by the Express, capt. Dell, an extra packet, from Cuxhaven. The contents have not fully transpired; they relate however to an engagement between the Austrian and French armies on the Rhine, in which the latter are stated to have been defeated with great slaughter, and seven thousand taken prisoners by the Austrians. We cannot vouch for the correctness of the particulars, but would not be surprised, if the report brought in private letters by the last Mail should thus receive full confirmation; as we have known many instances of private accounts of important events being received before the official dispatches arrived.
The Arch Duke Charles commanded the Austrian army: the French were commanded by General Jourdan. Some of the Russian forces had joined the former.
The left wing of the French army commanded by Gen. St. Cyr, suffered most in the action.
The particulars were set off by Messengers to his Majesty at Windsor, and to the different Cabinet Ministers.
Mr. Duff, Steward to Lord Elgin, left town last night for Yarmouth to embark with dispatches to Mr. Thomas Grenville at Berlin.
Star-Office, 4 o'clock.
We stop the press to give a few farther particulars:
The French forces which composed the left wing of the army, commanded by Gen. St. Cyr, after the defeat they sustained, in the action with the Austrian troops, were foot in their retreat by the Austrian general Nauendorff, and sustained a complete defeat, hardly any of them escaped. The action took place about the middle of this month—we believe on or about the 10th.
Jourdan, with the other part of his army, had made a hasty retreat towards Basle. It is said also that Massena was attacked on or about the same time, and also defeated.
We are happy to add, that accounts have also been received of the capture of Corsu by the Russians. The Leander, which was taken by the French, when bringing home dispatches from Lord Nelson, has been taken in the harbour, and also a French frigate.
LONDON, March 28.
The Hamburg mail due yesterday arrived this morning, and brings some very important information respecting the operations of the hostile armies on the Rhine. We are sorry to state, that the news by this mail give but little countenance to the reported success of the Austrians under gen. Hotze, in an action said to have taken place the 7th inst. viz. on the day that followed the one on which the French General Massena, having entered the country of the Grisons, defeated the Austrians, and took possession of Coire. The official letters from Gen. Massena, containing a detail of his operations on the 6th are dated on the very day on which, if the account by the former mail had been true, he should have been recrossing the Rhine with a defeated army.
The operations on both sides for carrying on a vigorous campaign are conducted with the greatest activity, and, from the breaching time each have enjoyed by the protracted and intricate negotiations at Rastadt, and the consequent recruiting and improving of their armies, it may be expected to be extremely bloody.
The following are the communications received by the present mail, which are most important.
UPPER RHINE, March 16.
The beginning of the campaign which has been opened on the frontiers of the Grisons, has been favourable for the Austrians. The French have penetrated into the Grisons, and on the 7th of March taken possession of Coire, the principal town, after having made general off-berg, and several thousand men prisoners. The following is of the official accounts.
Letter from General Massena to Citizen Pache, French Minister at Lucerne.
Head Quarters at Coire, March 7. Citizen Pache.—We are now at Coire, the capital of the Grisons, but not without arduous exertions. The Austrians disputed every inch of the ground. Their last struggle was made before the gates of Coire, but here too they were entirely defeated. The fruits of this day's work are 3500 prisoners of war, two standards, 11 pieces of cannon, with provision waggons, ammunition, &c. General Dubinot, Commander of Brigade on the left wing, after having yesterday compelled the army to retreat, was to-day attacked by the superior force of all the troops commanded by Gen. Hotze. He has, however, totally defeated the enemy, and taken 1500 prisoners, and 7 pieces of cannon. The Austrians are retreating with precipitation.
Signed, MASSENA.
The report that an action to the advantage of the Austrians had taken place in the Grisons on the 7th, is not confirmed.
