LONDON, March 26. The Generals Papilla and Pallavizini, and Colonel Hiebel, at the head of a detachment from the regiment of Valagone Illyrian, and 100 arquebusiers invaded suddenly for Vieux Orleons, which, as it consisted of little more than 200 inhabitants, chiefly merchants, they entered without difficulty, and giving the Turks leave to retire, or remain with their families, they accepted of the former, and left the Austrians in full possession of the place. New Orleons surrendered at the same time to the Imperial arms.
Chocim was summoned to surrender the 20th of last November, by Prince de Cobourg, in the name of the Empress of Russia, which the Pacha, refusing to comply with, the blockade commenced, and this fortress is surrounded that neither men nor provisions can possibly enter. Its garrison consists of 3000 men only, but it is determined never to surrender while one of them exists, the Austrians must necessarily lose an infinite number of men before they reduce a place so obstinately defended, and so well fortified.
The Prussian troops in Holland are to quit the Republic in the course of this month, and will be replaced by those of Antwerp and Wurtemberg, which are hired by their high Mightinesses. The fever and ague has broken out in the Austrian army in Hungary, owing to the excessive dampness of that flat and swampy country, augmented by a wet winter; and menaced as it is with the plague on the one side, and the fever on the other, much labor will be spared to the avenging arm of the injured Muhlman.
The House of Commons of Ireland on the 8th inst. received a message from the Lords, by two of the Judges, that their Lordships had passed an engrossed bill, for repealing the act of the 33d of Henry the Eighth, which restricted a native of that country from being Lord Deputy or Chief Governor of that realm, and desiring the concurrence of the House, when the Right Hon. Mr. Secretary Fitzgerald informed the House, that he was directed by his Excellency the Lord Lieutenant to acquaint the House, that his Majesty having been informed of the purport of the said bill, his Majesty had consented, so far as his interest is concerned, that the House might do therein as it should think fit.
General Smith has had the good fortune lately to dig up on his ground in Yorkshire, a prodigious parcel of gold coins, in the finest preservation, as good as new.
The report of the Committee of Privy Council, appointed to enquire into the nature of the slave trade will be ready for publication within a few days. Some regulations are expected to take place, which may serve, in a certain degree, to appease the call of humanity.
Some disagreeable reports are at present in circulation, respecting the state of affairs between this country and Russia. The conduct of the latter towards England, in the late war, is not to be forgotten by our ministry; and while the Court of Petersburg keeps aloof with respect to a new treaty, Government here, from prudent motives, have thought proper to refrain Mr. Thornton, who had contracted to supply the Empress of Russia with a number of ships, to be employed in the transport service, from fulfilling his engagement. They have no objections, it is said, to his furnishing the ships, but will not permit them to be navigated by British sailors, alleging that it is not the interest of this country, to give cause of offence at present, to any of the belligerent powers, nor to have our sailors to seek, in case of any unforeseen or unexpected emergencies.
PORTSMOUTH, (N. H.) May 15. On Thursday evening last, a young man, apprentice to Mr. Jackson, of this town, got up in his sleep, and having dressed himself, went to the barn, took out a horse, bridled him, and rode through several of the principal streets, upon the saddle; he then returned home, put up his horse, undressed himself, and went to bed again, without waking. After he had got to bed again, the family awoke him by throwing water in his face; but he was totally ignorant of what happened, and could hardly credit the account of his evening's adventures.
PHILADELPHIA, May 28. At an Ordination held in St. Paul's Church, on Sunday the 18th instant, the Right Reverend WILLIAM WHITE, D. D. and Bishop of the Episcopal Church, admitted to the holy order of Deacons— Rev. Mr. Walke, Rev. Mr. Butler, Mr. Iredale, Mr. Neilson, Mr. Woodville, and Mr. Ball, Mr. Sikes. And on Sunday last, at an Ordination held in Christ Church— Rev. Mr. Walke, Rev. Mr. Ball, Mr. Iredale, and Mr. Neilson, Mr. Woodville, Mr. Neilson, were admitted by our Right Reverend Father to the holy order of Priests.
PETERSBURG, May 22. The ship Success, Captain John Flin, on her passage from Whitehaven to Fredericksburg, in lat. 45, about 20 leagues off the the Irish coast, fell in with the ship Wade, Capt. Grayson, without masts, bowsprit or rudder. They had been in this situation eleven weeks, and in very great want of provisions of every kind, and the same time the ship made so much water, that the exhausted crew could scarce keep her free. Capt. Grayson informed, that in long. 20, a sea had struck her, and carried away every thing above the level of the deck, together with her rudder and two men, and what added to the horror of their situation, was the loss of one of her best pumps; how this could be effected, appears very extraordinary:—In this condition they remained 18 days, when chance threw them in the way of the Portsmouth Planter, from which they procured poles, &c. for jury-masts, when they fell in with this ship, they had sailed up to long. 18; two days after, they fell in with the New-York Packet, from whom they got some further assistance; being then in long. 16—She was from Alexandria, bound to Ireland, and had on board upwards of 300 hog heads of tobacco. Capt. Flin took out the whole of the crew and passengers, which consisted of 13 of the former and 2 of the latter. A woman passenger was brought to bed of a girl, a few days after she got on board the Success. About ten days after they fell in with a French brig, from Cape Francois, bound to Bordeaux, who took on board Capt. Grayson, his mate, boatswain and a boy; the rest of the people arrived safe at Fredericksburg on the 9th inst.

The Jews resident in Rome have offered to the Pope a very enormous sum, if his Holiness will allow them to turn the stream of the Tyber, and clear the bed of the river, presuming that they will then find immense riches in statuary, coins, and other things.—This, however, is much opposed by the cardinals Borromeo and Albani, who have presented a memorial to the Pope, stating in the first place, that they believe it impracticable, and if practicable, the great danger there will be of occasioning a plague in consequence of the stench that will arise in the hot season of the year from the bed of the river. These reasons will probably occasion the scheme to be rejected.
The loop Betsey, Denton, from New-York, is arrived at Philadelphia. Ship Friends, Pattison, for Cadiz, and brig Eliza Jane, Dods, for Jamaica, cleared out at Philadelphia the last instant.
Whimsical manner of personifying Lent, a Life in Flanders. —On Shrove Tuesday, the fishermen dress very pompously a goodly figure representing Lent, and begin to pay their court to this emblematic being, by crowding round him, accompanied by a numerous suite of both sexes. In proportion as Easter approaches, the figure loses his courtiers, and his fine clothes; and in Passion-week, poor Lent is seen in his morning gown and night-cap, attended by a physician, a surgeon, and an apothecary. On the Saturday preceding Easter, this phantom is supposed to die. Rockets and squibs are tied to the skeleton, and the people are entertained with a splendid fire-work, which reduces the decaying Lent to ashes.
Anecdote of Sir Christopher Wren. —During the building of St. Paul's church, a country carpenter applied to the overseer of the workmen for employment as a carver. The overseer smiled at the man's temerity, hearing he had never worked in London; this was observed by Sir Christopher, who was present, and calling the man to him, asked, what he had chiefly worked at in the country? Pig-troughs, &c. was the answer. Well then, says Sir Christopher, let us see a specimen of your workmanship in a sow and pigs. The man returned in a few days, having performed his part with such exquisite skill, that he was immediately employed; and, in fine, executed some of the most difficult parts in the cathedral, to the astonishment of all that knew the circumstanced.
NEW FASHIONS at PARIS. THE Ladies of Paris wear chiefly robes a l'Anglaise, made of marigold and apple green sattin, striped alternately; to which are tacked plain gauze ruffles. Under this robe they wear a transparent mullin petticoat, with a double flounce put over a rose-colored sattin. Round the waste they wear a triple girdle, made of broad marigold ribbon, edged with black, and fastened in front with a large clasp, dividing into two parts, and two medallions of polished steel, enamelled in blue and yellow, on which they paint a variety of devices. Their shoes are of marigold colored sattin, with large white roses. They wear large white gauze handkerchiefs, trimmed with a very fine lace, much puffed out, and very open at top, close under the chin; besides which, they wear a large cravat round the neck, made of gauze, in place of a necklace, tied with a large rosette in front. Their hair is dressed in large detached curls, four of which fall on each side the neck; behind it flows a la Confeilliere, and tied in the middle, with a pin a la Confeilliere. On the head they have a bonnet a la Turque, the band of which is marigold colored sattin, and plaited in middling size plaits; the upper part is made of plain gauze, very high and full, and is ornamented with three large white feathers. NEW BUCKLES. There never was a time when buckles were in greater variety than at present, or so full of pattern.
An oval buckle is all the rage here at present, and on it all sorts of musical instruments and books. It has a lyre, a guitar, clarionets, flutes, hautboys, tambours, mandolines, bass, violins, and timbals, besides two books; all of which being minutely represented, the size may be well conceived. Another buckle is of a lozenge shape, but it is made so plain as to appear a contrast to the former, though remarkably elegant.
British Act of Parliament. ANNO VICESIMO OCTAVO GEORGI III. REGIS. An Act to continue the Laws now in force for regulating the trade between the subjects of his Majesty's dominions and the inhabitants of the territories belonging to the United States of America, so far as the same relate to trade and commerce carried on between this kingdom and the inhabitants of the countries belonging to the said United States.
WHEREAS an act made in the twenty-third year of the reign of his present Majesty, (intituled, An Act for preventing certain instruments from being required from ships belonging to the United States of America; and to give to his Majesty, for a limited time, certain powers for the better carrying on trade and commerce between the subjects of his Majesty's dominions and the inhabitants of the said United States); which said act has been continued, by several subsequent acts, until the fifth day of April, one thousand seven hundred and eighty-eight: And whereas by an act made in the twenty-fourth year of his present Majesty's

To the Inhabitants of the United States of America. WHEREAS Oliver Evans of New-Castle County, Delaware State, hath invented and introduced into exercise, machines useful in merchant mills, one of which may be applied to hoisting water and other purposes. And as the Legislatures of Pennsylvania, Maryland and Delaware States, have, for the encouragement of genius and useful inventions, granted to him, the said Evans, a patent for making and selling his said new invented machines for a term of years. And whereas the said Evans's brothers have represented to us that they have shown draughts of the said machinery, to sundry millers and others, some of whom seem to have doubts of the possibility of making such machines to be useful. And we, the subscribers, being of opinion that the said machine, if well applied, is a very great and extraordinary improvement on the milling business, and willing well to all mankind, and being desirous that useful inventions be promoted and encouraged in this country, and that the inventors and mankind in general be benefited thereby:—Do therefore in this public manner, bear testimony of our opinion and knowledge of said invention, and will thank the printers throughout the United States, to insert the following certificates, once at least in their public newspapers.
Mill-Creek, New Castle County. 28th March, 1788. These are to certify, that I have had Evans's new invented Elevators and hopper boys, erected and in use in one of my mills, for twelve months last past, and from experiences, I find that they prevent waste of both wheat and meal, and save me the expense of pay and board of half the hands. And I have lately purchased the permit for erecting them in my other mill, and have them nearly finished. Witness my hand, WILLIAM MARSHALL, Red-Clay Creek, New Castle County, 28th 4th Month, 1788.
These are to certify that we have seen the above mentioned machines in use; we have seen the wheat emptied from the tail of the waggon, and an elevator carried it up into a garnet that guided it into the screen and fan, from which it ran into the stones, and as fast as it was ground, an elevator hoisted it up to the hopper boy which spread it abroad to cool, and gathered it into the bolting hopper which it attended regularly. And we are of opinion that they will be easily kept in repair and last many years and save much expence, therefore we have purchased the permit and are erecting them in our mills. CALEB BYRNES, JOSHUA STROUD, STEPHEN STAPLER, New Castle County, Christiana Mills, 29th April, 1788.
I do certify that a permit is obtained of Oliver Evans, for erecting his elevators and hopper boys, in the Mills in which I am concerned, and the works are nearly completed, and that I have seen great part of the machinery perform all that has been said in their favor. Witness my hand, JOSEPH ISRAEL.
We do certify that we have had wheat ground and bolted at Evans's Mill, since the machinery above mentioned was erected in her, and that we never were so well served by any mill whatever, and we have reason to believe that it is owing to
the performance of the machinery, that so much flour was made of so good a quality, as we never heard of said mill making more than others, until after this new method was adopted. Farmers in Lancaster County. Paul Ransifler, Wendle Bowman, John Good, Jacob Rieff, Martin Grider. Farmers in Chester County. Michael Greer, George Pallmore, William Manteil, James Criswell. Farmers in New Castle County. Joseph Ball, James Croffan, Con. Holahan, Mobs M'Knight, John Bowman. Wilmington, 1st May, 1788.
These are to certify, that I have at sundry times bought superior flour that was manufactured at Evans's mill, since she has had the new inventions erected in her, and I do approve of it, and I find it commands as good a price in the West-Indies as any I ship. WILLIAM HEMPHILL. Wilmington, 1st May, 1788. These are to certify, that I have, frequently inspected superior flour made at Evans's mill, since the new inventions have been in use in her, and I find it equal to the best that comes to this market. JOSHUA JACKSON, Inspector.

To provide a set of Sweepers, as many as may be found necessary, under the distinguishing mark of a cap, on the front of which, will be the words, New Chimney Office, No. 21, Wall-street, to see the business performed. 2d. To allot each a proper district, in such manner, as that every subscriber's chimneys shall be regularly swept once every month, (or oftener if required) at the rate of one shilling and three pence, for every chimney. 3d. To oblige himself to pay the fine laid by law, in the chimney sweeps fine within one month after it has been swept, by the people belonging to this office, unless the chimney be cracked, or the fire begin in some other part of the house. 4th. To render the establishment of general public utility, in case of fire, the sweepers shall be made to attend, and perform such services as may be required of them. The undertaking merits the greater attention, as it will contribute in a particular manner, to render lives secure, and prevent the destruction of property, by conflagration, which too frequently originates from foul chimneys, occasioned, in some instances, by neglect of Sweepers attending at regular periods, and in others, no knowing where to apply. Subscriptions will be thankfully received at the aforesaid place, and the plan will be begun upon the second June next. May 9. tf STEPHEN PATERSON.
