Intelligence by the Brig Ann , in 9 weeks from London.
COPENHAGEN, June 7.
The troops assembled here amount to 14,000 men, and perform their manoeuvres in the plain of Amak.
STOCKHOLM, June 6.
Last Monday the King returned here from Carlscrona, where his Majesty had been to review his squadron, which he found in excellent condition. That squadron will sail the 9th inst. and will be joined by that which is ready at Sweaborg.
NAPLES, June 1.
On the 2d of March Mount Vesuvius began again to throw out hot stones, and a great quantity of smoke issued from its upper mouth. A slight shock of an earthquake was felt here, whilst in the environs of the volcano, there was not the least motion. A small mouth is opened in the flank of the little upper mountain, from whence the lava has run for these two months.
FRANKFORT, June 10.
The Emperor's armies in Hungary, Galicia, Transylvania, the Banat, Eclavonia, and Croatia, consist, they say, of 218,000 men, and, including the volunteers, &c. they amount to 275,000 men; the artillery men and bombardiers amount to 7000, 10,000 chauffeurs and arkebushers, 1000 pioneers, 1000 Tschaks, or marines; 25,000 men employed as waggoneers, 4000 bakers, and 2000 surgeons. Each battalion of infantry, and division of cavalry, has six pieces of cannon and a mortar, which amounts for all the battalions and divisions to 1,290 cannons, and 215 mortars. The battalions and divisions which have been ordered to march since the 14th of April are not included.
VENICE, June 14.
The Swedish Consul in this city has received from the College of Commerce of Stockholm, an ordinance issued by his Majesty, relative to the system of neutrality to be observed by his subjects in the present situation of affairs. By this ordinance, the captains of Swedish vessels are prohibited from admitting on board, any troops, ammunition, or merchandise of any sort, belonging to the belligerent powers; to dissolve all contracts they may have entered into for such purposes, and, under no pretext, to employ their ships in any respect whatever, in the service either of the nations at war, or the Barbary States; his Majesty being determined to grant no protection to any vessel that may be found to have acted in contradiction to this his royal mandate.
VIENNA, June 14.
General Prince de Lichtenstein has desired that the battalions which are sent to his assistance may march night and day; from this we may presume that he is in daily apprehension of an attack from the Turks encamped near Dubica.
The war has already cost us an immense sum, even (according to some calculators) more than two whole campaigns under Prince Eugene. Notwithstanding this there seems to be no want of money, and all the banks, both public and private, keep their credit in the highest estimation by the promptitude of their payments.
We learn from the head quarters at Semlin, that Abdi Pacha, Governor of Belgrade, though very respectable for his personal qualities, has been deposed by the Grand Signior for not destroying the dyke made by the Austrians, and because his son suffered the fort of Schabatz to be taken. He is said to be succeeded by the Pacha of Romelia, who, we are assured, is preparing to make a vigorous sally.
JUNE 21.
By advices from the Prince de Cobourg, dated from the camp at Rakgim, we learn, that Lieutenant Colonel Kosholaty, was attacked the 29th ult. in his post at Varsful, by 400 Spaniards, commanded by Janub, Aga; but that he gave the enemy a vigorous repulse, in which they had 17 men killed, and 30 wounded. Our loss amounted only to four killed, and two wounded. At the close of the action, this brave officer retired, with his troops, to Jaffy.
LISBON, June 8.
The last accounts from the Straights, represent Gibraltar as in a very deplorable condition. A famine prevails, besides which illness reigns there, which still adds to the desolation of the inhabitants.
PARIS, June 22.
The squadron of observation which has failed from Brest, is bound to Cadiz, where it will join a division from Toulon, and sail from thence, perhaps, to the Mediterranean. We are assured that these naval forces are ordered to repair to Naples. When this squadron returns, they will send some other ships to relieve the Leopard, and Illustre, stationed in the West-Indies.
JULY 4.
No change as yet in the Ministry; on the contrary, his Majesty has published an arrest, by which all remonstrances, and parliamentary arrests, are declared null; nay, they say, that other Parliaments are going to be created, so that the lines of Horace of justum & tenacem are very emphatically applied by the Court-party, to the intrepid Monarch.
LONDON, July 5.
The total amount of the ordinary of the navy at the several out-ports, as made up to the 1st inst. is one hundred and twenty-seven ships of the line; eleven of 50 guns; one hundred and one frigates, forty sloops and four cutters.
Extract of a letter from Petersburg, June 10.
Though every thing has been hurry and confusion here for several weeks past, the fleet has not yet failed, nor is it indeed as yet ready; some of the large ships, from 70 to 80 guns, at Cronstadt, have not 500 men on board, and of those half at least are landmen, wholly unacquainted with naval affairs. The vessels on the gulf at Archangel, and other places, have been stripped for sailors, who are arrived here; but even these have by no means equalled the demand for the men of war fitting out, which amounts to twenty three sail, of which seventeen are of the line, from 66 to 100 guns, of which last there are two on board, one of which, Le Catherine, Admiral (now Count) Greig has his flag. Paul Jones, by which name the American officer is known here, has not resigned his command; the majority of the British officers refuse, however, to serve under him; nor has any step yet been taken to accommodate the difference. This occasion no small difficulties, though the officers have not yet left their ships: their remonstrances to the Admiralty only are, that they cannot serve under the American; and that they will lay down their commissions rather than serve."
The silk speculation bids fair to be as ruinous in its consequences as that of cotton; to such an enormous height has the price been carried, that within these few days 2700 have been lost in the sale of a single bale.
It is confidently asserted, that Sir Joseph Banks, Lord Rawdon, and some other noblemen and persons
of distinction, have set on foot, a scheme for exploring the interior parts of Africa, and that proper assistants are immediately to embark for that purpose.
Extract of a letter from Mayence, June 29.
That something is on the tapis, which affects the general interests of the Empire, is beyond all doubt. Our Elector is too old to take an active part in the politics of the times, but his coadjutor, who is destined to succeed him, is much consulted, and deservedly so—for to a mind the most enlightened perhaps of any in Europe, he joins an excellent heart, and is no less regarded for his extreme probity, than for his abilities. Expresses are continually passing and re-passing.
The Swedes, it is said, are resolved upon hostilities, and, from all appearances, Europe will, in the course of a few years, assume a different aspect.
The Electors of Treves and Cologne are to be at Brussels, the 10th of next month. Our politicians give an air of mystery to this visit, but it is merely a visit of friendship.
Denmark and Sweden, it is reported, have offered to form a triple alliance with Prussia.
From the London Gazette, July 7.
Warshaw, June 18. By letters received yesterday from Bohopol, on the Bog, of the 15th inst. we learn, that the army, under the command of the Marshal Prince Potemkin, had been assembling for some days, and that between Ingul and Olwopol there were near 70,000 men under arms, exclusive of eight regiments of cossacks of the Don, and some other detachments. That the field artillery consisted of 127 pieces, from 12 to 24 pounders. That on the 1st inst. 2430 waggons with biscuit, &c. arrived at Olwopol from Kremenizk. That from the 2d to the 5th inst. the 2d division of the Russian army, consisting of about 30,000 men, commanded by Prince Repnin, had passed the Bog, and had taken post on the Turkish side of the river. That the first division waited only the arrival of Prince Potemkin from Elizabeth to do the same. That there is certain advice of a reinforcement of 43,000 men, with a quantity of provisions and ammunition, being arrived at Oczakow, by sea; and that a Serefsier is in march, at the head of 53,000 men, to cover that place by land. In the mean time Marshal Romanzow, with his army, has passed the Dniester, at and in the neighborhood of Jampol.
JULY 10.
Mr. F— is said at length, to be perfectly tired of politics. His party say that it has been with the greatest difficulty they have been able, for these last two or three years, to retain his assistance; and that, after the close of this session, they have but little hopes of having any further aid from his abilities. If this be really so, the Minister will have far earlier work upon his hands for the future; and his adversaries, for want of their best champion, will soon be obliged to ground their arms.
Sweden is certainly in earnest with her dispute with Russia. The Empress provoked the quarrel, and may think she can recede. The King, however, thinks it his time to speak his mind freely. Not a ship is permitted to sail from any port in Sweden without being duly examined, lest it may contain any stores or ammunition for Peterburgh. The following passages are selected from a letter dated Berlin, June 27:— "The Russian Ambassador at this Court, Count Romanzow, received a messenger the day before yesterday from Peterburgh; the contents of the dispatches must have been of a very peculiar nature, because the Count has delivered a memorial to our Ministry, desiring— "That our Monarch would prevent the King of Sweden from pursuing, his war-like preparations against Russia, and cause him to receive pacific propositions, or incline him so to do; otherwise her Imperial Majesty would look on the measures taken by Sweden as nurtured and assisted by Prussia, which her Imperial Majesty would know how to resent, &c." This very haughty language has given much umbrage; however, the Russian Minister is packing up his all, and himself is gone a small distance from the metropolis, and will not return thither, but go without taking leave.
The answer given to this very extraordinary memorial read thus—"That his Majesty, the King of Prussia, had no control or command over his Majesty of Sweden as a Sovereign; as to his own part, he had already and repeatedly declared, that he was resolved and fully determined to remain neutral in the present troubles in Europe, &c."
The Russian Minister, not satisfied with this answer, remonstrated by a short note, threatening that he would leave the kingdom, to which his Majesty gave no answer at all.
A few days ago, we had a report current, that his Imperial Majesty, the Emperor, had been milking in the army.
Our Princess Royal, Princess Frederica, is gone to Pyrmont, to drink the water for the benefit of her health; his Majesty made her a present of 7,000 dollars, equal to 1000 guineas, towards the expence.
Extract of a letter from Vienna June 14.
The number of Turks before Belgrade increased daily by the successive arrival of the troops destined by the Grand Vizir to cover that place, or rather to harass the Imperial Army encamped at Belgrade.
Letters from Semlin of the 7th inst. inform us, that there are four thousand tents on the plain of Belgrade already, so that there are about sixteen thousand Turks.
The Imperialists continue busy in fortifying their camp, which they mean to render impregnable, by the number and strength of its intrenchments, and quantity of batteries raised around it. But these preparations, according to some accounts, far from raising the courage which the soldiers shewed when they thought of passing the Save, give them too great an idea of the Grand Vizir's forces, as if the whole Ottoman Empire was going to fall on Belgrade. This terror has not yet reached the head quarters, where, on the contrary, there reigns the greatest confidence and tranquillity.
We are assured that on the 6th inst. the garrison of Belgrade surprised a small Austrian post, and took twelve men and a field piece without striking a blow.
HULETT'S Dancing School.
THE kind patronage of a generous Public shewn to JOHN H. HULETT, induces him to take this public method of returning his most sincere thanks to his friends, and to acquaint them and the Public, that he will open his SCHOOL, at his ROOM, No. 15, Little Queen-Street, on MONDAY, the 22d inst. where he will teach DANCING in the most modern style.—The Days of Tuition for Young Ladies, will be MONDAY'S, WEDNESDAY'S and FRIDAY'S, from two, until five o'clock in the afternoon, and for the Gentlemen, from six until nine o'clock in the Evening of the same Days.
Mr. HULETT will wait on any Ladies or Gentlemen, who wish to be caught this Act, at their Houses, at those hours that do not interfere with his SCHOOL. Sept. 15. ed zw
BOSTON, September 9. Extract of a letter from L'Orient, received by the Brig Lively , Capt. Kelli, dated July 17.
In this unfortunate and unhappy country we cannot depend upon any thing. The King is now at WAR with his subjects, and there are many regiments of infantry that have refused to serve him against their country. The peasantry begin to collect in formidable bodies, and have offered a large reward for the head of the Intendant of the city of Rennes, who has had the good luck to escape.
Every thing at present seems to wear a melancholy aspect; the minds of the people are much irritated. This has continued these three months, and we do not know when nor how it will end. Thus we behold the consequences of a bad administration."
If one half of the alterations and additions imperatively suggested by the Conventions of some of the States to the new Constitution, are made, this system of government will, in every respect, be inferior to the old Confederation—which has so long been justly complained of. Knowing this, the people ought to be on their guard against your alteration makers, before the Constitution has had a fair trial. It is the opinion of the most exalted and good characters of the United States, that in obtaining the new government, the people have made the happiest acquisition the children of men were ever blessed with.—Let us beware then how we mar it. The people may be assured, that under the cloak of previous amendments is hid a dagger, aimed at the existence of our union and peace: But under such a government as this system provides, it is the general sentiment that our union will be cemented, and our peace perpetuated—that dignity and justice will be our characteristics as a nation—and that the sponge of time will wipe out the many, many stains which individual States have made.
If we divide we are lost.—But if, planted in the soil of freedom, and watered with the dews of union, these States will adhere to the great principles of the Constitution, they will multiply and increase like the Indian figtree—so beautifully described by Milton—
"Branching so broad and long, that in the ground The bending twigs take root—and daughters grow About the mother tree— a pillar'd shade— High over arch'd."—Bestowing succor—and Affording safety.
NEW-YORK, Sept. 16.
A CHARITY-SERMON will be preached, at the request of the society for the relief of distressed debtors, confined in Gaol, on FRIDAY Evening next, in the OLD PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH. Divine service will begin precisely at 7 o'clock.
Yesterday arrived the Brig Ann , Lawrence, from London; Schooner Ann , McAlson, Canib, Nova-Scotia; and Sloop Polly , Robertson, Bermuda.
On the 15th of August, a very violent hurricane did immense damage in the Islands of Martinico, Dominico, and St. Eustatia.—The gale came on so suddenly, that but few vessels could put to sea, and those that remained in the harbours, were almost all totally lost.—The damage done on shore, to houses, &c. is very great. Particulars have not yet come to hand.
Extract of a late letter from Albany.
On the first day of last term, his Honor Judge Yates charged the Grand Jury in this city that the new Constitution was now adopted by this state, and become a part of the laws of this state, and it became their duty, and the duty of every good citizen to support it—which is another proof that the Judge is that amiable character we have ever esteemed him."
Extract of a letter from London, by the 1st Packet , to a Gentleman in Baltimore.
Doctor Nevil Maskelyne, the astronomer royal, has resumed the subject of the approaching Comet, which he has lain before the Royal Society. As the whole of the Doctor's reasoning on this expected return of the Comet of the year 1532, and 1661, would be too long (it containing 14 quarto sheets) I will only give you such an abstract from the whole as may explain his calculation.—The Doctor predicts the return of the above Comet nearly in the same time as in the paper he before read to that learned body, about fifteen months ago, viz. to its perihelium in the beginning of the year 1759, or the 28th or 29th of December, 1758, and certainly some time before the 27th of April, 1759.—If it should come, he observes, before the 31st of December, this year, or the 2d of January, it will be visible with a good achromatic telescope, in its descent to the Sun, the 16th or 17th of September, 1758, and sooner or later, according as its perihelium should be sooner or later.—It will approach us from the southern parts of its orbit, and therefore will first appear with considerable south latitude, and south declination; so that persons residing nearer the Equator than we do, or in south latitude, will have an opportunity of discovering it before us.—The Doctor hopes it may be first seen by some astronomer, in such a situation, and furnished with proper instruments for settling its place in the Heavens; the earliest good observations being the most valuable for determining its elliptic orbit, and proving its identity with the Comets of 1532, and 1661.
He recommends the Cape of Good Hope as an excellent situation to make the proper observation.—His papers, with respect to the planet Mercury, for the ensuing year, I shall give you by the next Packet."

An ESSAY on the Life of the Hon. Major-General
ISRAEL PUTNAM:
Addressed to the STATE SOCIETY of the CINCINNATI in CONNECTICUT. By Colonel DAVID HUMPHREYS.
THE extraordinary adventures of General Putnam, his rise from obscurity to the highest rank in the state, his exertions in the cause of his country, his military merit and distinguished character, afford a most copious theme for the historian and biographer. Perhaps no man ever encountered death and danger in so many various forms, or with more dauntless intrepidity and success. Many occurrences in his earlier life almost surpass the bounds of credibility, and equal the most flourishing fictions of romance. We are happy to be able to furnish the public with an authentic account of the life of an American Hero, in whose character and story curiosity is so deeply interested, and whose adventures have been often reported with many mistaken or fictitious circumstances. The work is equally entertaining and instructive. It contains a concise history of the most remarkable events in the several wars in which General Putnam was engaged. The genius, elegance and ability of the author, are too well known both in Europe and America to need a panegyric. His performance is worthy of his pen, and deserves the encouragement of the friends of literature, as it is the first Essay of American Biography.

Any person chusing to purchase either of the above places, on paying one quarter of the money down, may almost have their own time of payment for the remainder, or goods will be taken at cash price, and a good title will be given for either, or both places.
