PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 11.  NEWS FROM THE WESTWARD. A letter from General Wayne's Army states, that in five days from leaving Fort Defiance he had reached the Miami Towns —that Campbell had evacuated the Fort at the Rapids—that a Council of Indians had been held after their defeat on the 20th August, in which British Agents had endeavored to persuade them to resume another action—but that the Indians re- fused, and had dispersed to their homes determined to bury the Hatchet—that 200 Indians fell in the late action—that their whole force on that occasion was 1500 Indians and 30 Canadians. The Collector of Niagara was among the slain, his body, being afterwards found —The provisions of the Indians were salt- ed, and received from the British stores.
Extract of a letter from Baltimore. Nov. 9. The officers of the French Corvette L' Espartade arrived in this port, say, that the Nation have 46 line of battle ships now at sea against the Grand British fleet—that by next Spring they will have 78 ships of the line, completely equip, that 200 merchant vessels were ready for a secret expedition, when the Corvette failed.
CONGRESS.  HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. Tuesday, November 11. The Speaker communicated a letter from the Governor of the Territory of the United States south west of the River Ohio, enclosing the credentials of James White, elected to represent that Terri- tory as a representative in the Congress of the United States. The letter & credentials were read by the Clerk—and, on motion of Mr. Blount were referred to a special Committee of five members.—Mr. Bodmer of the Commit- tee appointed to report on the unexpired business of the last session, and on such laws as have expired, or are near expiring, brought in a partial report which was read —It referred only to two unexpired bills one respecting an uniform system of Bankruptcy throughout the United States, and the other, making provi- sion for tick, or disabled seamen, and the report of the Committee appointed to prepare rules and regulations for the House —His report being read, the Speaker in- formed the House that one member was still wanting to form a quorum of the Se- nate. On motion of Mr. Tracy the rules and regulations reported last Session were read —and referred to a Committee of the whole House. Mr. Murray informed the Speaker, that Mr. Duvall a member from Maryland, elected to supply a vacancy occasioned by the resignation of Mr. Mercer, was now attending to take his seat. It was observed that the Committee of elections, who had the Case of Mr. Mer- cers resignation under consideration would report in about fifteen minutes. Mr. Nicholas observed that he saw no reason for delay in admitting the Gentleman.—The members had all taken their seats without any previous scrutiny; and he saw no reason for in- stituting one now. Some remarks fell from Mr. Lee, relative to precedent; and the proceedings of the House in the case of Mr. Mercer, when he took his seat in the room of Mr. Pinckney, were read. Mr. Dayton of the committee of e- lections, presented a report—previous to reading which, some observations were made. It was contended, that the gentleman ought to be admitted without any antecedent formality. A- gainst this it was said, that the case was not a common one: the gentleman ap- pears, to take a seat which has been occupied by another; and satisfactory evidence ought to be had, that the seat has been properly vacated. This fact will appear by the report. Mr. Murray stated that the requisite information on this point, had been a- bundantly furnished both by the ex- ecutive of Maryland, and by Mr. Mer- cer himself. Mr. Madison observed that he con- sidered the reading of the report would be the shortest process in the business of admitting the gentleman. He had no doubt of the propriety of the gentle- man's admission. The report was then read, which sta- ted in substance, that John Francis Mercer had resigned, and that Gabriel Duvall was duly elected in his stead. The report being again read, was ac- cepted, and the Speaker administered the oath required by the Constitution to that gentleman, who thereupon took his seat. To-morrow was then assigned to go into a committee of the whole, on the rules and regulations. Adjourned 'till 11 o'clock to-morrow.
BALTIMORE November, 7. Mr. Bates who for many weeks has la- boured under a very severe indisposition, last night made his appearance in the char- acter of "Rutcken" in the Opera of "Robin Hood." His abilities are by no means weakened by his illness; the brilliant comic-genius shone conspicuously through the pen-pun evidently occasioned by a long state of inactivity and a debility of frame the consequence of sickness.
From an English paper.  MUNICIPAL POLICE. Some of the regulations, for building houses in Paris, would form an admirable, precautionary police against fires. The roofs of all the common houses at Paris, have either composition, brick, or tiled floors; there is no wood whatever in the rooms, but the doors and windows; and their apartments are found to be as warm, if not warmer than ours. Houses designed for shops, have a por- tion of twenty five high, arched and se- parated from the rest of the house. Here a loft is raised, where there are rooms o- ver the shops, about ten feet high, where the shopkeepers and their apprentices lay; while the rest of the house is separated for lodgers. These apartments are called entre-sols , and they are found to be very convenient. All stair cases at Paris, are of stone or brick, girded with wood; and the floors of all shops are bricked, flagged or tiled. In Holland, particularly at Rotterdam, they have watchmen stationed in centry boxes, built on the top of their churches, to give an alarm of fire, at its first ap- pearance. From which circumstances, and arrange- ments in building, similar to those in France, fires are very uncommon in Hol- land. These regulations might claim the at- tention of the legislature of any country, since it is an idle prejudice, that the afore- said materials are not full as warm, if not warmer and more comfortable, while they are not only safer, but cheaper than wood.
Foreign Intelligence.  From Hamburg papers. Translated for the Phil. Gaz.  AACHEN, August 30. On the 28 inst. Count de Clairfait has entered upon the duty, as com- mander in chief of the imperial army, and general Beaulieu has, in the gen- eral orders of yesterday, been acknow- ledged quarter master general in place of the Prince of Waldeck. Prince Co- bourg departed immediately for Vien- na after having taken his leave of the army by the following Address: "His Majesty the Emperor, having graciously yielded to my most humble representations, by accepting my resig- nation of the chief command of the grand army, vouching that important trust in his excellency General Count de Clairfait, information thereof is hereby given to the army. I avail myself of this opportunity to declare to all the generals, officers, and to the whole ar- my the deep sense of regret, I am pene- trated, with, occasioned by this separa- tion. I beg they may accept of my assurances, that the esteem I bear so brave troops and my gratitude for their good will in the service, as well as for attachment and friendship to my own person, will be as lasting, as their me- mory ever will be dear with me. My best wishes for good success and the glory of their arms will follow them every where, and though, at this very moment, I cease being their leader and chief, I shall never cease admiring their merits, rejoicing at their exploits, and glorying in their friendship. I cannot but persuade myself they regard that ex- pression of my sentiments as the effusion of a heart deeply affected, it being the last proof of my warm attachment and esteem." (Signed)  PRINCE DE COBOURG.
POLAND.  Extract of a letter, dated Berlin, Sept. 6. At the important crisis impending on the Polish affairs, when people flatter themselves to hear every moment of the capture of Warsaw, it is nearly as in- teresting to obtain certain information of what has not been in that respect. A messenger arrived yesterday from that quarter announces only a fall of the Poles luckily repulsed; but the city it- self is still so effectually defended by general Kosciuszko's camp, as to pre- vent the Russian army from battering the place without molestation, the only means to oblige the city to surrender. It was however still expected at the head quarters of the Russian King, that a favourable turn of circumstances might enable them to enter that capital in the course of four or five days. In my last I informed you, that the Russians took possession of six batter- ies; on the 28th they took three others, extending to the right wing of Kos- ciuszko's camp. The Poles, in order to retake those batteries, attempted a most spirited sally, but were repulsed with the loss of 1100 men. The battle how- ever was obstinate and bloody, and our troops paid very dear for their advan- tage obtained over the enemy. The re- giments of infantry of Berlin, Hollwedel,
and Frankenberg, suffered greatly. A report [contradicted by some] says that the people at Warsaw became enraged at the failure of the attempted sally; that prince Joseph Poniatowsky (the Polish king's nephew) was in imminent dan- ger of being hanged, the populace as- cribing the ill success of the enterprise to some misconduct in his leading on the troops, and that it was with the utmost exertion, that Kosciuszko himself shield- ed him from such shameful treatment. It is said, the insurgents in South Prussia have intercepted a considerable transport of money destined for the army encamped before Warsaw, and taken possession of a battery that was to be transported on the Vistula river from Graudenz to the same place.
BERLIN, Aug. 30. A Messenger from Head-Quarters arriv- ed last night, by 12 o'clock, with the a- greable news, that Lieut. general Von Shonefeld surprized Madaliniky, the gen- eral of the insurgents, when he intended to pass the Vistula in order to overrun and plunder South Prussia, but suffered a total defeat at Zakroczim. 700 of the insur- gents are said to be killed, besides 1500 prisoners. Whether Madaliniky is among the latter is not ascertained.
LOWER RHINE, Aug. 29. Three kegs with Dutch Ducats are said to have arrived at Meersbricht, which the States General sent to the Imperial army. The French have in the Dutchy of Bra- bant only, taken out 18,000 horses. The Bishop of Namur has been taken by the French as a hostage and sent to Paris. At Liege the pound of bread costs 18 sols.  FRANCE.  EVER TRIUMPHANT.  NATIONAL CONVENTION.  PARIS, 25th August. In the sitting of the 23d, Barrere read a dispatch from the Representatives of the people Soubrant and Millaut depu- ted to the army at the Eastern Pyren- nees. The letter was dated August 14, pur- porting, that the Spanish general, Count de la Union, on the day preceding, made a general attack with intention to relieve Bellegarde. At first the Span- iards obliged our troops to fall back with some loss. They also gained some heights, and fired on us with our own cannons, that we had left there. But our troops retreated only in order to con- centrate their forces, advanced again and drove the Spaniards again out of the batteries they had carried. At the same time, brigadier general Mirabel de- feated a column of the enemy, that had advanced to support the attack, but un- fortunately lost his own life fighting at the head of his troops, who revenged his death by a dreadful massacre among the Spaniards; the latter left 2500 dead on the spot. So the intended relief of Bellegarde blockade, proved abortive, and we shall soon hear of its fall. On the 22d, the Revolutionary Tribunal sent Henriot, adjutant Deschamps, to be executed by the guillotine; he had been previously declared an outlaw.
The minister from the Republic of Geneva desired the Convention to ap- point a day, when he might be admit- ted to present them his credentials. On Barrere's motion it was decreed, that the same formalities be observed, as was done at the reception of the minister from the United States of America.— Accordingly Stephen Solomon Rey- batz, envoy from the ruling powers at Geneva, entered the hall attended with his secretary of embassy and sundry of his countrymen, and being conducted into the centre of the hall, took his seat over against the president's seat. In this speech he amongst other things laid: As the Convention had decreed the rights of men to them, it was referred to decide on the rights of nations, and to adopt a political equality. Of course the minister from a small republic ought to be received in the same manner as the ambassador of a powerful empire. Ge- neva had well deserved for the cause of liberty. The pen of J. J. Rousseau, and the dart of William Tell, were two precious relicks. Rousseau he called a hercules, who had purged the stable of policy. Then the minister received a- midst loud applause, the fraternal em- brace of the President, and it was de- creed, to cause his speech with the an- swer thereto, to be translated into all languages, and printed, and to hoist the Geneva colours on the side of the French in the Convention hall. It was further decreed, that the committee for nation- al instruction be enjoined to bring in a report in the course of 10 days, in what manner the ashes of Rousseau may be translocated from his tomb at Erme- nonville to the Pantheon at Paris. Durand, Malliane, Bourdon de l'Oise, Cambon, Breard, and Talien, spoke on the 22d amidst many applau- ses, in the Convention, in favour of en- tirely re-establishing liberty of opinion, of the press, and for the abolition of
PARIS, August 18. Barrere informed the National Con- vention yesterday, that the fortress of Quesnoy had been taken by our troops on the 15th inst. The Austrian gar- rison to the amount of 3,000 men, laid down their arms, and surrendered at discretion. Our troops found in Ques- noy 119 Austrian and Dutch cannon, a great number of muskets, 30000 wt. powder, a great many cartridges and other warlike stores. The most effect- ual measures have been taken, to arrest all Emigrants who were in Quesnoy, and to bring them before the criminal court. Forty one of them are already in confinement. Never did an army shew more spirit and activity, than that which besieged Quesnoy. The conti- nued rains had overflowed the trenches; the soldiers mean while continued the works under a perpetual shower of shells and balls, singing all the time warlike songs. In a few days, added Barrere, we hope to be able to inform, that the Northern territory of the Republic is totally cleared of the enemy. Barrere then read the following let- ter of the General of a Division, Sherer, who commands the troops about Ques- noy, dated head quarters at Beaudignies, August 16. "Citizens Representatives, "Quesnoy belongs again to the Re- public. Yesterday afternoon at 4 o'clock 3000 of the enemy, grenadiers, infan- try, cavalry, artillery &c laid down their arms. This being done, the whole garrison was marched back into the works of the place, where I keep them under arrest, until you shall have deci- ded their fate. Twenty four compa- nies of grenadiers, and three battalions, keep the inner and outer works of the place in possession. The army which I have the honor to command, has shewn the greatest fortitude and spirit, during the twenty days since, when the trench- es were opened. The infantry approach- ed the palisades under a most dreadful fire, and the cavalry made prisoners till near the glacis of Valenciennes." Barrere made thereupon mention of a machine by means whereof the news of the recapture of Quesnoy two days ago arrived at Paris half an hour after our troops marched into that place. "A curious contrivance, which has been invented, said Barrere, to transport the thoughts by a peculiar language from one distance to the other, through machines, four or five leagues distant from one another, so that the expression will get in a few minutes to a great distance, does honor to this century, and the execution of this discovery is your work. A trial of this invention was made last year before a committee of the Convention. These making a fa- vorable report, the committee of public welfare, took all possible care to establish by this means a communication between Paris and the frontier places, beginning first with Lille. Almost a year has been applied, in procuring the necessary in- struments for the machines; and to in-

strict proper people in the use thereof. Now the matter is brought so far, that a proper correspondence with Lisle can be carried on; on various subjects, every thing can be expressed, even proper names, and an answer obtained, and this correspondence may be repeated more than once in one day. This machine is the invention of citizen Chappé, and they have been constructed under his immediate direction. They have that advantage, that they withstand the motion of the atmosphere, and the inclemency of the season, and are not subject to any interruption, unless the weather should be so bad that objects and signals could not be seen. By this invention all distances as it were vanish, and a communication is made with the velocity of thought. The operations of government may be thereby greatly facilitated, and the unity of the Republic can be much consolidated by a prompt communication with the different parts thereof. The greatest advantage connected with this kind of correspondence is, that if you please, the subject thereof may be known only to the individual persons at the two opposite distances to that the committee of public welfare may correspond with the representative of the people at Lisle, without any body else knowing the subject of the correspondence. Hence follows that in case of a siege we should know all that happens in Lisle, and that we could transmit decrees of the convention, without the enemy knowing any thing about it, or being able to prevent it. All the reward claimed by the inventor for his discovery, is the mention I make there of here in the Tribune. Barrere called this new invention a Telegraphic language by signs .
In the Session of the 14th, Cambon, presented a statement of the ready cash, which has been sent in from the conquered countries, the statement is as follows, viz.
From the Palatinate. 138350
From the Netherlands, 18. Transport 511097

In the Department of de Gaud a conspiracy was attempted against the sovereignty of the nation. A certain Bourdon, member of the Revolutionary Tribunal at Nismes, who together with a number of others had been a great friend of Robespierre, accused the Convention, that they had ruined Robespierre only with an intention to bring about a counter-revolution: But the patriots in the said Department soon suppressed their conspiracy. The said Bourdon shot himself in the Chamber of the Society of the people at Nismes. Many other persons were arrested, and the people were so enraged against the conspirators, that it was necessary to double the guards which were to conduct them to the prison.
August 2 - 22. M. Le Hoc, late ambassador of France, at the circle of Lower Saxony has been set at liberty.
In the night of the 20th, we had a terrible fire here in the late Abbey of St. German, where is now a Saltpetre manufactory. The library, highly esteemed on account of its rare works, is totally burnt, but the saltpetre was mostly saved and no lives lost.
The Convention has decreed in conformity to the plan presented by Berlier, that there shall be sixteen committees, viz. 1. committee or Welfare, consisting of 11 members. 2. committee of safety 16 members. 3. Committee of finances 48 members. 4. Committee of Legislation 16 members. 5. Committee of public instruction 16 members. 6. Committee of commerce and provisions, 12 members. 7. Of Agriculture and arts 12 members. 8. Of public works mines and quarries 12 members. 9. Of Transport and ports 12 members. 10. Military committee 16 members. 11. For the Navy and Colonies 12 members. 12. Of public supplies 12 members. 13. For the decision of the Republic 12 members. 14. For the Journals of the Convention, decrees and archives 15 members. 15. For correspondence, petitions and dispatches 12 members, and 16. of inspection of the Hall of the Convention 16 members—consequently all these committees consist of 252 members.
With respect to the occupations and powers of the several committees the following has been decreed: the committee of Welfare, in case of arrest of civil agents or when they want to bring any person before the Revolutionary Tribunal, must pre concert their measures with the committee of public safety; the decrees of the committee of public welfare must be signed by at least 7 members. The National treasury is to give the committee of public welfare a credit of 10 millions for secret and
public expenses. The committee of public safety superintend the police of the Republic particularly that of Paris; they issue decree of arrest against citizens, send them to the Revolutionary Tribunal, and set them at liberty again. All decrees of arrestation or liberation must be signed at least by 9 members. In case the committee causer arrest any public officer, they are obliged, to give information thereof to the committee to whose department he or they may belong. They may call out the armed force for the execution of their decrees.
In the session of the 18th, on motion of Bourdon de l'Oise, the Convention decreed, that the two brothers of that famous girl Renaud, who, as it was said, wanted to assassinate Robespierre, and who had been imprisoned by his orders, should be set at liberty again. The one was an officer, the other a soldier in the northern army. They are to return to their posts and they are to receive their pay from the day they were arrested.
Soon after this decree had been passed the said two brothers appeared at the bar of the Convention, and requested a revocation of the decrees of their father, who has been executed. Coupilleau opposed their request; "If you do not pass to the order of the day, said he, you will be overrun daily with petitions coming from aristocrats" and the Convention passed unanimously to the order of the day. Coupilleau moved that the number of the revolutionary committees should be lessened in such a manner, that, in every principal town of a district, and in every community of 10 or 12,000 persons, there should be but one revolutionary committee, and in Paris 12. "Such a number of revolutionary committees, said he, would be sufficient to do good, but too small to do any mischief." This motion was very much applauded, but nevertheless adjourned.
The Convention received lately 242 marks of silver, which were found in the dwelling house of the late Count Miranda.
General Muller, hitherto commander in chief of the army of the Western Pyrenees, has desired his dismissal and obtained it.
General Dumerbion, commander of the French Italian army, being taken with an incurable disorder, the command of that army has been given to General Bizanet.
UNITED STATES. PORTLAND, October 27. SEPARATION.
Proceedings of the Convention held at Portland, on the second Tuesday, being the 14th day of October current.
It appearing to the Convention that six towns and two plantations more are represented at this meeting than were at the former, and that now twenty towns and five plantations have appeared by their delegates, exclusive of those towns which have chosen delegates who have not yet been cause to attend.
On motion, Resolved, 1. That this Convention will now undertake the business committed to them by their Constituents—And will from time to time consider the question of Separation from Massachusetts, till the same on established facts and principles can be resolved—and in due time, and at proper season, lay a report before the people.
The Convention then proceeded to consider the subject in various points of view till Friday, when, having on the preceding day chose a Committee to arrange the several matters, they received the report of their Committee by way of Resolutions; which being read, considered by paragraphs, amended and accepted, is as follows:
Resolved, as the opinion of this Convention, 1. That the detached and separate situation of these counties, renders it highly inconvenient and improper that their present connection with Massachusetts should continue any longer than till the same can be conveniently and constitutionally dissolved.
2. That these counties, in respect to territory (comprehending more than a tract 120 miles square) and in respect of population (containing more than 80,000 souls) an adequate of a separate government; and that in respect of wealth and ability, they are prepared for the measure.
3. That the separation and erection of these counties into a state, is a measure both constitutional in principle, and practicable in attempt.
4. That our distance from the seat of government is unfavourable to equal representation, and to the preferment of necessary and important petitions.
5. That the present terms of the Supreme Judicial Court in these counties, are insufficient for the due administration of justice; that our condition both deserves and demands that our Judges
should reside among us; and that the hardships of being obliged to resort to the Clerk's office in Boston for papers, and of paying officers fees for the return of executions to that office is intolerable.
6. That the same hardships exist in our being obliged to do business at the public offices of government in the present metropolis.
7. That the expenditure of monies paid for the support of government among ourselves would in a considerable degree alleviate that necessary burden; whereas the same expenditure abroad is a considerable addition to it.
8. That the present state of education is disproportioned to our ability and population; and is to be imputed to the want of an authority among ourselves that could at once understand and improve it.
9. That innumerable advantages and accommodations would arise from the administration of a government in the minds of the people.
10. That the weight and consequence in the federal government, to be acquired by the right of sending two Senators to the Congress of the United States, is an object of great importance to the people.
11. That agriculture and manufactures, and the arts and sciences in general, will be encouraged, and would probably be encouraged in a much greater degree, under a direct and immediate patronage, composed of those who could perceive their necessities, feel interested in them, and be sufficiently at leisure to do them justice.
12. That the objections against a separation, so far as they have been made known to us, either by a representation of the people, or by report of opinions, are unfounded; and only supported by doubtful authority, and the neglect of examination.
13. That the prosperity of which we are capable, requires a total separation from the parent state—for separate legislative, judicial, and executive powers are alike essential; and any expedient short of these, would not be salutary, but dangerous; as it might amuse and deceive the people for a while, but probably would not secure to them the tenth part of the advantages to which they have now the clearest right.
Whereupon the Convention took the following order.
The report of the committee, containing thirteen resolutions, being read, considered, amended, and accepted, thereupon
Voted, That a committee be appointed to prepare an address to the people upon the basis of this report and the calculations as amended (see below) explaining the same, and stating the evidence upon which they are founded, and report the same to the adjournment; to the intent that the resolution together with the address, may be laid before the people.
This committee was accordingly appointed.
The Convention then proceeded to a temporary decision upon the report of a former committee, containing a statement of our present proportion of taxes, and a calculation of the expense of a new government—thereupon
Voted—The excise laws having lately been repealed in part, and the Convention not being satisfied respecting this part of the report at present, that the statement so far as it respects the excise be for the present omitted, that the residue of the statements be accepted as well grounded; and that the calculations, omitting the Lieut. Governor's salary, be also accepted as safe. When the statement and calculations will stand as follows:
Statement. Sum necessary for the support of government in Massachusetts per Treasurers report last winter, £30,122,134. Proportion of Maine, 5,000. Proportion of the lower counties to those—nearly as 16 to 140. Calculations. Governor's salary £300. Secretary and Treasury, 300. Clerks, 149. Judges of the Supreme Judicial Court, 850. Attorney General, 150. Legislature, 1500. Clerks of both houses, 66. Messenger, 30. Contingencies, 1200. 4530.
Voted, that the address made by the Convention to the several towns and plantations which did not send delegates, be still in force as a friendly invitation to such as have not yet been represented to send a delegate or delegates at the adjournment.
Voted, that this Convention be adjourned to the last Wednesday of January, next, at 10 o'clock, A. M. to meet at Portland.

PHILADELPHIA, NOVEMBER 11.
A wag observed the other day, that the grand sun, which rises daily in Mr. Bache's new paper for the purpose of doing good, as is said, is the offspring of the late General Advertiser, lawfully begotten by the Jacobin Club. A person who had been listening to this little anecdote, very drily replied—that if young Ben's grandson should do any good, it would be more than ever old Ben's grandson had done.
Captain Malin returns his most heartfelt thanks to the citizens of Philadelphia, whose friendly and prompt assistance at the fire on Saturday morning enabled him to save chief of his effects, and prevented his house from falling entirely a sacrifice to the devouring flames.
The citizens must recollect, that to the exertions of 80 men from the Ville de l'Orient, they owed, the preservation of much property, at the fire in Second street September 1793; it must, therefore, be doubly grateful to their feelings to have been instrumental, in their turn, in saving part of Capt. Malin's property.
Capt. Bertrand now of the Semillante, commanded one of the vessels sent by the government of France to cruise for the transport which was to bear Muhl and Palmer, Martyrs in the cause of freedom, to Botany Bay. They remained 60 days on this cruise which terminated unsuccessfully. Gen. Adv.
On Thursday evening was married by the Rev. Dr. Magaw Mr. Thomas Whippo, merchant of New-York, to Miss Ann Robinson of Philadelphia.
Extract of a letter from a gentleman with the army dated Berlin 25th Oct. 1793.
"I can give you no intelligence worth attention, nor has our march produced any thing interesting or amusing, save that two Light horsemen having lately come across a very large Bear, they shot him with their pistols, but this produced little except irritation. One of them fired his Pistol into the Bear's ear—then mounted on his back, rode him 100 yards, and with the assistance of his companion, killed this ferocious monster with their swords, and brought his skin and quarters, (which weighed 23 lb) into camp.
From the General Advertiser of this morning.
"The election of members of Congress in Massachusetts has called forth, from their papers it appears, all the heat of contending parties. In Boston the electioneering campaign has been particularly warm. This day, probably, we shall learn which of the rival candidates, Fisher Ames or Dr. Jarvis is successful. The decision will in a great measure decide the complexion of the politics of that city."
There is a gentleman in town who was present at the election of a member of Congress in Boston the 3d instant—he says the number of votes were upwards of 2700—of which number Mr. Ames had upwards of 1600. Dr. Jarvis, 1100.
We further learn, that in Roxbury there was a majority in favour of Jarvis of 60—but that in the other country towns in the district the majority was generally in favor of Ames; who, it was universally believed, is chosen.
By this Day's Mail.
BALTIMORE, November 8. On Thursday evening came to anchor off the fort, the French sloop of war L'Esperance, in 38 days from Rochefort, with dispatches for the French minister.
As this vessel left France the last of September or first of October, papers brought by her must contain very late and important intelligence. We are sorry that such secrecy as to particulars should be observed; and that no other information could be obtained than what has already been anticipated by all; that is, that Victory is still the order of the day; that the triumphant Sans Culottes are extending their conquests into the very heart of Spain and Holland; and that the tyranny of Madrid and aristocracy of Amsterdam must quickly pay their last act of homage to the victorious standard of Gallic liberty.
We are informed that the above vessel brings news of an army of 180,000 French having entered Spain. It is likewise said, that a French squadron of nine frigates has, for some time past, been cruising among the Orkneys, and captured and destroyed 70 sail of vessels.
Arrived off the fort yesterday evening, the brig Chance, Capt. Bowen, 23 days from St. Eustatia. Capt. Bowen
brings a positive confirmation of the complete victory of Laveaux over the British, and of the whole of Guadalupe being in possession of the French. Off Anguilla, spoke a sloop from New-Haven, with cattle on board, out 50 days.
ANNAPOLIS, Nov. 6. On Tuesday a sufficient number of members appearing, the House of Delegates met, and made choice of the hon. Matthew Tilghman, Esquire, for their speaker.
We hear that previous to the late action with the savages, General Wayne narrowly escaped being killed, by the falling of a Tree in the Night, against which a fire had been kindled and carelessly left burning—the Tree fell on the General's tent, and crushed it to the ground: He however had so far recovered from the injury he received, as to be extremely active in the action.

To the Merchants of the United States.
At the special request of the secretary of state, the committee appointed by the merchants of Philadelphia, have undertaken to obtain copies of the proceedings of the courts in the British Islands, in the West-Indies: Bermuda, the Bahamas, and in their colonies, in North America, upon the causes of American vessels, and property tried in the courts in any of the said Islands, or colonies.
The Committee therefore give this public notice, that all persons concerned who have not already obtained authentic copies of the proceedings, in their particular cases, may furnish the Secretary of State with the names of the vessels, and masters, the places where the trial was had the time when, and such other circumstances as the nature of the case may require.
It is deemed important that those particulars be furnished as soon as possible.
Nov. 8, 1794. The publishers of newspapers throughout the United States are requested to insert the above.
For the information of the Merchants.
The committee, having been notified by the Secretary of State, that the Agent of claims and appeals appointed by the President of the United States is to embark immediately for London, and that he is authorized to bind the United States under the direction of Mr. Jay, for the costs and damages, attending the prosecution of the claims of American citizens; that the necessary counsel will be engaged on the part of the United States; and that if the parties will obtain copies of the proceedings of the Courts on their respective cases, the expense of the records will be reimbursed by the United States.
They are of opinion that measures ought to be immediately taken for obtaining authenticated copies of such records and proceedings in all cases where they have not already been procured, and will undertake to obtain them for all such of their fellow-citizens as shall within 20 days from this date furnish the names of the vessels and masters; the ports or places where tried or condemned with such other information as the circumstances of the case may require.
They recommend to those who have already obtained the copies of the proceedings of the Courts to have them examined by some person of legal knowledge—that if they should be found defective in any respect the deficiency may be supplied, at the same time that the records are applied for.
In behalf of the Committee. THOMAS FITZSIMONS. November 6, 1794.
