ADDRESS. The Public are respectfully informed that the Subscriptions for this Gazette are daily increasing in the City—that its circulation is extensive, being sent to every State in the Union—and as probably exchanged with more Printers in the different States than any other Gazette—these circumstances enhance its utility as an advertising Vehicle. The generous patronage which the publication has already received, demands the Editor's most grateful acknowledgements—He solicits a continuation of advertising favors. From these principally arise the resources which enable the publisher of a daily paper to extend his plan of general entertainment and information.

MR. FENNO.
IT has been said that no government, unless it be supported by main force, can safely rest on any other foundation than the confidence and attachment of the citizens. Our clubs and insurgent newspapers have laboured, and they boast with some success, to place our own government on another bottom; on the jealousy and hatred of the people. No words of abuse have been spared to stigmatize the men who profess respect and confidence in the administrators of the national affairs. The clubs, &c. boast of jealousy as a virtue, and claim merit and credit for scattering the seeds of it in every part of the country; hatred of ministers, sycophants and courtiers, for they use these imported names, is with them independence of spirit. Nothing can exceed their blind hatred of what is American, except their blind servility for what is foreign. Are these slanderers renegade-Americans, or the scum of Europe? For, surely, true blooded citizens would not, and could not, shew such traitorous ardor to vilify and embroil their own government. Every one knows that the western insurrection was made by false hood and lying. The artificers of rebellion included into the uninformed and credulous multitude in the back country the opinions inculcated in the General Advertiser, the Boston Independent Chronicle, and the New-York Patriotic Register. If the citizens really did put their faith in the clubs and those incendiary articles, what ought they to do? Ought they not to abhor and to destroy such a government as they have exhibited. What honest man or good patriot could or would lose a moment's time to stab the vitals of a system founded as they have pretended in artifice and despotism, and administered on the principles of usurpation and plunder. The conduct of our insurgents is not to be justified; but no man knowing human nature will doubt that the errors of their conduct correspond with the errors of their opinions. It is time for plain dealing—It is time to profit by the lessons of experience. If clubs and newspapers, the known and lately the successful instruments of sedition are not discontinued, there will be more sedition. The resolutions of clubs and the gross and incessant misrepresentations of newspapers, will again produce error, prejudice, jealousy, hatred of authority, and a desire to control and resist it—and finally, actual resistance. This progress is natural and inevitable, and if we had not experience to confound all unbelief, it would be absurd to look for any other consequence. Do those who sow only tares expect wheat? Those who sow sedition may expect to reap rebellion. More insurrections will spring from the same ground if it should be sown and tilled a second time in a similar manner with that which made the first crop vegetate and ripen beyond the mountains. What is the remedy? Shall the freedom of the lying press be restrained? No, by no means; let the press be free. But let the citizens be free also—and let them frown the incendiaries, clubs and printers into insignificance. It is the abuse of the public patronage—it is the encouragement of infamous newspapers, which is afforded from pity, from weakness or from mistaken generosity, that nurses these vipers and stores them with poison which they incessantly transfuse into the veins of the nation. Why are gazettes devoted to calumny and falsehood, and a foreign Cataline encouraged? Is it to abuse our unrivalled chief magistrate, to misrepresent the administration of the laws, to garble speeches, to sow the seeds of foreign and civil wars? No, the patrons of the scandalous gazettes have no such designs. The number of incendiaries throughout the United States is very inconsiderable, and they are chiefly employed in striking fire in our capital towns. The great body of our citizens are prosperous and happy, full of confidence and attachment for the government, rejoicing that the measures of peace have prevailed, and that the laws are enforced against the insurgents. This is known to be the case by every man—the sentiment is breathed in the addresses to the President, and confirmed by his answers; it appears in the style of our governors and state legislatures. Yet the industry of our malignants is not slackened by events. The stream of calumny is still full, and the fountain-head seems unexhausted. Public opinion is the safe, the gentle, the efficacious remedy for this inveterate and deforming malady. Let clubs, those work-shops of sedition, be marked like other places of ill-fame. Let the gazettes that want confidence and character, want patronage. Starve sedition out.
tion out. That devil is to be cast out only by fasting. Then it will appear that those which are suggested to depend on foreign gold, large sums of which are known to have been scattered in other neutral countries, are left to live only upon their wages—the wages of infamy.

MAESTRICHT, Sept. 11.
Every thing has been in motion here since Monday last. On that day 12 squadrons and 8 battalions, commanded by General Alvinzy, came and encamped under the cannon of our ramparts. This day 4000 Bohemian recruits arrived here to complete the Austrian battalions. It is said that a very considerable reinforcement is expected. We are assured that the army will pass the Meuse this night or to morrow morning.
The day before yesterday part of the garrison of Conde passed by this place in the way to Germany.
STOCKHOLM, Sept. 2.
An intercepted letter of the Neapolitan Ambassador in Vienna, Maquis de Gallo, to Armfeldt, has been communicated to the court, by which it rendered manifest the protection which was given Armfeldt by the court of Naples.
LEGHORN, Aug. 20.
The Spanish squadron under Admiral Langara, in the Mediterranean, consists of 4 ships of the line of 112 guns, fourteen of 74, seven frigates of 32, and 2 brigs. Another Spanish squadron of 4 ships of 74, four frigates of 32, and two brigs, under command of Admiral Gravina, is stationed in the port of Rosas.
The Spanish navy has joined the British, in order to form a blockade, extending from Cape Mele to Marseilles, which renders the navigation of the French on the coast of Provence extremely critical.
This fleet has lately captured a Genoese vessel, bound from Genoa, to Nice, laden with wine, and four other vessels, with provisions, bound to Marseilles. The French, in order to escape from the vigilance of this fleet have hired all the Belones, several of which, according to letters from Genoa of the 17th, have left that port under convoy of a cutter, and two other armed French vessels sent on purpose, with orders to keep close to the coast. The same letters from Genoa inform us that the senate, at the request of the French consul, citizen Lachaize, in the name of the French Republic, has given orders for the arrestation of the Parisian banker, Haller, contractor-general for the French army in Italy, implicated in the financial dilapidations committed by several creatures of Robespierre; but the banker had found his way to Berne, his native country, the day previous to the execution of those orders.
LONDON, Sept. 18.
Two foreigners have been arrested at Aix-la Chapelle, upon whom were found assignats to the amount of 500,000 French livres; several letters, sealed with the counterfeited seal of a gentleman of high rank, a plan of the Austrian camp, a description of its strength, and a long list of Dutch and German Jacobins which will be very useful for the discovery of a great number of secret enemies of the public order.
The reports of the Count D'Artois's arrival in this country are without foundation. His Royal Highness, and the Duke D'Angouleme, are still at Rotterdam, where they preserve the strictest incognito.
Accounts from Copenhagen of the 26th ult. inform us that the Government there has repealed the edict issued against the liberty of the press, with regard to seditious publications, the edict having only been a momentary measure of police.
The French have laid the town of Ostend under a contribution of two millions of guilders, which must be paid in specie; at the same time they take what goods they think proper from merchants and shopkeepers, for which they pay in assignats.
At Ghent a requisition was made of sixteen hundred men to drain the water from Sluys. It was complied with, and the inhabitants drew lots among themselves for that purpose.
Eight hundred men were required from Bruges. They were refractory. The consequence was, that six thousand troops marched into the town—The tocsin was rung—the inhabitants assembled in great numbers in the Grand Place, when they were instantly surrounded, and the number required taken, without respect to rank or riches, and sent off to make the canal between Dunkirk and Furnes navigable, that the vessels now lying at Ostend may be brought round by an inland navigation, because that harbor is completely blocked up by the English ships cruising between that and Nieuport.
The severity against Bruges for its disobedience has been considerably embittered. As an example of terror to
other places, they have demanded four millions of guilders, to be paid immediately in specie; and in case of non-compliance, they threaten to introduce amongst them that hitherto irresistible argument, the guillotine!
The great Duke of Malborough, when talking of subsidies, said, that it was to be lamented that German steel was to be sharpened only with British gold.
September 20.
Lord Fitzwilliam's appointment to the Lieutenancy of Ireland, is immediately to take place. His lordship's administration, it is said, is to commence with the bringing forward several measures which will be highly gratifying to the people of Ireland, such as the repeal of the Convention acts, the complete emancipation of the Catholics, and some other, equally popular measures.
Captain Blosset, of the Ann transport, is arrived at Plymouth from the West Indies. He reports that on Wednesday last, he was in possession of two French frigates. The above intelligence was received at Lloyd's.
An account from Bohemia reports that a Bohemian here with great ability employed in the army is expected to be promoted in the army of the Emperor. A Prussian courier arrived at Prague on the 27th, in 101 hours, when he was cautioned not to venture over a bridge on the Elbe, he said, "that his business was of more importance than his life."
STATE PAPER.
The following is the copy of a note which has been transmitted by the English Ministers to the imperial Court. ]
Because it is not equitable that the states of Austria alone should bear the expenses of the war, England, through unforeseen circumstances, finding itself disengaged from other alliances, it is the intention of the King of Great Britain,
I. That, during the present and the succeeding campaigns, subsidies will be granted for 10,000 men.
II. The above mentioned ministers of Great Britain, are furnished with full powers for negotiating for the capital of this subsidy.
III. They will charge themselves with the incidental expenses.
IV. That conquests will be made in common.
V. That arch Duke Charles shall be invested with the principal command if he chuses to accept of it.
VI. That England will be bound as a principal for the payment of the subsidy, notwithstanding a third part of it is chargeable to Holland.
The English ministers add, that they hope this conduct will tend to effect a closer and more permanent alliance between the house of Austria and the Maritime powers, an event which has been long wished for, and that, in respect to the importance of the Emperor's concern to prevent an incursion of the French into Italy, England through those motives alone, would continue the payment of the subsidy to the King of Sardinia.
   In a short time the following number of men is to be in British pay, viz.     Seamen 100,000   Emperor 100,000   Prussia 60,000   Emigrants 50,000   Germanic Subsidiaries 50,000   British 50,000   Militia and Fencibles 50,000   460,000  
When we recollect that eleven millions were borrowed in February last, that there has since been a vote of credit of three, and that Parliament has been ordered to meet early in November, to furnish the minister with more money, it is not difficult to form an idea of the amount of the ensuing loan. From the immense increase of our military establishment, and the subsidy to be granted to the Emperor, it is even probable that it will much exceed that proportion, unless ministers, for fear of alarming the public, should chuse to provide for part of the expenses of the next campaign by temporary expedients.
MADRID GAZETTE.
[This public print of the 26th ult. which rivals in the Marvellous, the ci-devant Brussels Gazette, has the following article:]
General La Union writes from his camp near that city, that on the 13th he divided his army into seven parts—six of which, composed of 9000 men each, had orders to make feigned attacks upon the French on all sides, while himself, with a choice body of 15,000, made a grand movement, when he completely routed them driving them from all their redoubts, 37 in number, and killed their General.
He possessed himself of all their camp equipage, twenty pieces of the heaviest ar-
tillery, six howitzers, and a great number of smaller artillery.
The number of killed on the part of the enemy was not known, but considered, from appearances, not less than four thousand.
The French retreated (says the Gazette) ten leagues beyond Bellegarde.
The Spanish loss, including the Portuguese auxiliaries, is put down at five hundred and fifteen killed.
(The Spanish Gazette insists on the siege of Bellegarde being completely raised.—Barrere, whose head would answer for the lie, states quite the contrary.)

STATE PAPER.
George Washington, President of the United States of America,
To the Representatives of the French people members of the committee of public Safety of the French Republic, the great and good friend and ally of the United States.
On the intimation of the wish of the French Republic, that a new minister should be sent from the United States, I resolved to manifest my sense of the readiness with which my request was fulfilled, by immediately fulfilling the request of your government. It was some time before a character could be obtained worthy of the high office of expressing the attachment of the United States to the happiness of our allies, and drawing closer the bands of our friendship. I have now made choice of James Monroe, one of our distinguished citizens to reside near the French Republic, in the quality of Minister Plenipotentiary of the United States of America. He is instructed to bear to you our sincere solicitude for your welfare, and cultivate with zeal the cordiality so happily subsisting between us. From a knowledge of his fidelity, probity and good conduct, I have entire confidence, that he will render himself acceptable to you, and give effect to our desire of preserving and advancing on all occasions the interest and connection of the two nations. I beseech you, therefore, to give full credence to whatever he shall say to you on the part of the United States, and most of all when he shall assure you that your prosperity is an object of our affection. And I pray God to have the French Republic in his holy keeping.

NEW YORK, November 13.
The report of the assassination of Barrere and Tallien is probably ill founded; we have a number of Paris Papers, some as late as September 16, the latest received, and nothing said on the subject.
Reports by the Sanfom say, that the King of Great Britain has had a misunderstanding with the ministry on account of the supplies for the army, and that the Emperor has declined granting the troops stipulated for by Earl Spencer.
A few days ago, the ship Mary from Newburyport, bound to Washington on the Potomac, loaded with lime and lumber took fire in the Chesapeake, and was totally consumed with every article on board. The captain escaped in a boat. The ship was chartered by Hon. Mr. Dalton, and the cargo on board belonged to him. All his furniture was also on board. The lime and lumber was insured to the full amount; only four thousand dollars on his furniture was insured, which is supposed to be much less than its value. It is supposed the fire was occasioned by the casks springing a leak, and the water reaching the lime; as the ship had been on the middle ground.
TRENTON, November 12.
In joint-Meeting of the Legislature on Thursday last, RICHARD HOWELL was re-elected Governor of this state.
JAMES MOTT, was unanimously re-elected Treasurer.
PHILADELPHIA,
NOVEMBER 15.
Curious Climax.
A writer in the Boston Chronicle, who signs "No Tory," inveighing against the supporters of Mr. Ames's election, says, "Have they not attacked Hancock and Adams—and even the TOWN CLERK?"
Extract of a letter received by a House in New York, by the Sanfom, Captain Smith, from a house of the first respectability in London.
"We are happy to inform you that in a late conversation the American committee had with Mr. Pitt, they were given to understand, that all matters between ministry and Mr. Jay were far advanced in settlement, and would soon be finally arranged. Mr. Jay will no doubt by the Sanfom, officially acquaint your Executive of the success of his mission, and we hope the Olive Branch will be hailed by America with the same Cordiality and Heart felt satisfaction that it is by all ranks in this country."

Philadelphia, 22d October, 1794.
S I R,
AT a meeting of the merchants yesterday, they instructed their committee to inform the Secretary of State, that it is the wish of the sufferers, by the depredation of the British, that persons be appointed for obtaining "the proofs in the West-Indies, and for entering claims and appeals if it should be found necessary, and also for prosecuting those claims in Europe, that they trust the whole business will be prosecuted at the expence of government, and that the claimants will furnish such documents as they may be possessed of to the persons appointed."
At the same time that the committee transmit this resolution, they beg leave to state to the Secretary of State their own opinions upon this important subject, and what they believe to be the opinions of such of their fellow-sufferers as they have had an opportunity of consulting.
They consider the communication of Lord Grenville to Mr. Jay, as read to them and since published, to amount to nothing more than an extension of the time for entering appeals, and a distant expectation of some compensation from government in case the aggressors shall be unable, and their being called upon at this moment to bring forward their claims, leads them to fear that the American minister may be induced to acquiesce in some such arrangements as is there held out.
If the negociation should result in any thing like this, we are firmly persuaded that a great proportion of the sufferers would rather abandon their claims than encounter so certain an expence for so uncertain a remedy. They are too well acquainted with the delays and expence of British courts, and in numerous instances the property, tho' great in the aggregate, is divided into so many hands as to render it impossible to get a general agreement to join in such a prosecution.
Indeed if the common process of the courts are to be relied on, it can only be an object to those who have large property to pursue it, for after all the expence is incurred and the delay borne, they must have their remedy against the owners of privateers or captains of men of war who may not have the means of compensation in their power, and then only can they have recourse to the British government.
Under the influence of such opinions as these, it is not to be wondered at that the merchants should be unwilling to concur in any measure, that would bind them to a general contribution; tho' of them who think their claims of sufficient magnitude, and have the means left, will prosecute their claims; while a number of others will rely on the justice of their own country.
From inquiry of the persons met it appears that there were but few who had not already obtained authentic copies of the proceedings of the courts, though they were not many who had entered appeals. It was understood too that the appeals may be entered in England, without notice to the captors from the appellants.
Should that opinion be well founded, and that the government of the United States think proper to take upon itself the prosecution of the claims in England, it would be reasonable and proper that the merchants should, at their expence, obtain the proceedings of the courts; and those who met authorised us to inform you, that under that condition, they would do so.
We have thought it better, on so important a subject, to communicate to you in writing the instruction given to us and the opinion we entertain; at the same time to assure you Sir, that we will give every assistance in our power to government in the business for which we are chosen, and will attend at all times when you may think it necessary to call upon us. In the discharge of the trust reposed in us, we shall probably find it necessary to correspond with the merchants in other states to collect their opinions upon this important business, and will communicate freely to you any information we obtain that may be deemed useful.
In behalf and by order of the committee, I have the honor to be Sir, your most humble servant, THOS. FITZSIMONS.
Philadelphia, Nov. 4, 1794.
SIR,
Although from my knowledge of the President's anxiety to procure compensation for the sufferers under British depredations, and of the measures which he had pursued, I declare to you my persuasion, that he would approve what was proposed in your letter of the 2d ultimo; yet I could not speak definitively until his return.

The President has appointed Mr. Samuel Bayard, a gentleman of the law in this city, and of known respectability, of talents and character, to proceed immediately to London, as agent of claims and appeals. He will sail in the Adriana now on the point of departure for Great Britain, from this port. He will be authorised to bind the United States, under the direction of Mr. Jay, for the costs and damages attending the prosecutions; and the necessary counsel will be engaged on the part of the United States.
It will be expected that the stipulation which you have made in your letter, be accurately executed to wit; That the merchants will obtain the proceedings of the courts. The expense of the records will be reimbursed by the United States.
It will be proper, however, that you obtain such information as is possessed by the department of state, of the records which have been already procured and forwarded; and I take the liberty of cautioning you against an error, into which you seem to have fallen, "that there were few who had not obtained authentic copies of the proceedings of the courts." Technical precision is not absolutely understood by unprofessional men; and therefore, what is fair to the eye, will not always resist the criticism of courts. But as soon as correct records are got, let them be forwarded to our Minister Plenipotentiary in London. What notice may be necessary to the captors, or whether the appeals and claims ought to be entered in the West Indies, I will not undertake to determine; but this inquiry will be the first made by Mr. Bayard, after his arrival in London, and instructions will be given to endeavour to remove every difficulty on this head.
I wish you to correspond with the persons interested in British captures in the different towns in the United States. I will send to the governors and custom house officers, copies of your letter and this, for the inspection of all concerned; and I mean also to publish the enclosed notice.
I have the honor, Sir, to be, with sentiments of respect and esteem your most obedient servant, EDM. RANDOLPH. Thomas Fitzsimons, Esq. Chairman of the Committee of Merchants.
Department of State, to wit:
I HEREBY certify that the foregoing letter of 22d Oct. from Mr. Fitzsimons to the Secretary of State, in behalf of a committee of Merchants of Philadelphia, and the Secretary of State's reply of the 4th inst. are true copies of the originals.
GEO. TAYLOR, Jun. Chief Clerk.
7th Nov. 1794.
TO THE INHABITANTS OF CERTAIN COUNTIES, LYING WEST OF THE LAURELL HILL, IN THE STATE OF PENNSYLVANIA.
Friends and Fellow Citizens,
YOU see encamped in the bosom of your district, a numerous and well appointed army, formed of citizens of every description, from this, and the neighboring states of New-Jersey, Maryland and Virginia, whom the violated laws of our common country have called from their homes to vindicate and restore their authority.
The sacrifice of private interest and ease, the relinquishment of family and friends, and of all domestic comforts and enjoyments, the fatigues of a long and arduous march at an inclement season, the many inconveniences and hazards of military life, could not withhold them from obeying with alacrity so sacred a call. Actual hardships and sufferings, such as might try the patience of troops the most inured to military toils, have only served to display in strong colours the genuineness of the patriotic sentiments by which they are impelled, and to furnish a memorable example of the fortitude and perseverance capable of surmounting all obstacles, which may be expected from men who are moved by principle and the love of their country. The scene before your eyes ought to be an instructive one; it ought to teach many useful truths, which should, for your own happiness, make a deep and lasting impression on your minds.
In the sudden collection and rapid movement into your country, of so respectable a force, you behold an unequivocal proof of the ability and determination of the people of the United States to uphold the government they have established, as well as of the energy and resources of that government.
You see the fallacy of the suggestions by which most of you have been de-
ceived, as to the power of the government, and the inclination of the great body of the citizens to support and maintain the authority of the laws.
In the largeness of the force which has come into your country (though partial inconveniences may attend it) may be discerned another evidence of the clemency, as well as of the power of government.
A beloved President, whose wisdom and virtues will be indelibly engraven on the heart of every true American, to the latest posterity, unmindful of the neglect with which his parental overtures were treated, has still sought to save the deluded from the fatal consequences to which the violence of their passions has exposed them, by convincing the most obstinate and the most rash that resistance would be madness.
Those who have been perverted from their duty may now perceive the dangerous tendency of the doctrines by which they have been misled, and how unworthy of their confidence are the men by whom, for personal and sinister purposes they have been brought, step by step, to the precipice from which they have no escape but in the moderation and benignity of that very government which they have vilified, insulted, and opposed.
The friends of order may also perceive in the perils and evils that have for some time surrounded them, how unwise and even culpable is that carelessness and apathy with which they have permitted the gradual approaches of disorder and anarchy.
All ought to see the extreme danger of sporting with the public passions, of misrepresenting the measures of government, of converting differences of opinion about the means of promoting the public good into evidences of pernicious designs, of interested and corrupt aims, of criminal plots against the liberty and happiness of the people.
Let chimeras like these no longer disturb our tranquillity; let them be banished as the inventions of men, who, at the expence of truth, and at the hazard of the peace and tranquillity of the community, seek either to destroy a fabric which the people have reared as the depository of their happiness, or to gratify their rivalships and resentments to promote their own aggrandizement.
In thus addressing myself to you, you must be sensible that I can have no motive but my solicitude for the restoration of your happiness, to establish and perpetuate which is the principal object of the command with which I am entrusted. The attainment of this, and every other end of my trust, with as little inconvenience to individuals as shall be practicable, is what I anxiously desire, and will materially depend upon yourselves.
Under the influence of this sentiment, I recommend to the citizens in general to give every evidence in their power of a disposition friendly to the constitution and government; to demean themselves peaceably, and remain quietly at home; to contribute all in their power towards the accommodation and supply of the army; to prepare, and produce freely what they have to spare of the necessaries of life; and to content themselves in the sale thereof with the price to which they have been accustomed, avoiding all appearance of exaction and extortion.
By this conduct the evils unavoidably incident to the presence of an army will be in a great degree mitigated, if not effectually removed.
I further recommend to all the well-disposed to manifest their good intentions by taking and subscribing without delay, sincerely and truly, an oath to support the constitution and obey the laws, and by entering into an association to protect and aid all the officers of government in the execution of their respective duties; and to protect them from ill treatment of every sort. For this purpose a paper will be deposited with magistrates in each county, according to the form subjoined.
I do also exhort all men capable and willing to bear arms, truly attached to their government and country, to array themselves into regiments, one for each county, and to place themselves under such officers as may be selected by the Governor of the state, known to be firm friends to order and right, upon the express condition of holding themselves in constant readiness to act in defence of the civil authority, whenever called upon, receiving for their services the same pay and subsistence as is allowed to the militia of the United States, when in actual service.
In pursuance of the authority vested in me by the President of the United States, and in obedience to his instructions, I do moreover assure all who may have entitled themselves to the benefit of the amnesty profered by the commi-
ssioners heretofore sent by him to this district and who may not have forfeited their title by subsequent misconduct, that the promise will be faithfully and liberally observed, and that all possible endeavours will be used to prevent injury to the persons or property of peaceable citizens, by the troops, whose sole province it is to subdue those, if any there should be, hardy enough to attempt an armed resistance, and to support and aid the civil authority, as far as may be required. To the promulgation of these my orders, I with pleasure add my assurances that every exertion will be made by me, and (from my knowledge of the officers and soldiers of the army) I am persuaded with full success, to carry these wise and benevolent views of the President into complete effect.
Given under my hand at Head-Quarters, near Parkinson's Ferry, this eighth day of November, 1794. HENRY LEE.
By the Commander in Chief, G. K. TAYLOR, Aid-de-Camp.
I, A. B. do solemnly, in the presence of Almighty God, swear and declare that I will faithfully and sincerely support the constitution of the United States, and obey all the laws thereof, and will discountenance opposition thereto, except by way of petition and remonstrance, and all attempts to resist, obstruct or ill-treat the officers of the United States in the execution of their respective duties. So help me God.
And in pursuance of the above oath, I do hereby engage and associate myself to and with all others who may subscribe these presents, to countenance and protect the officers of the United States, in the execution of their said duties according to law, and to discover and bring to justice all persons who may be concerned, directly or indirectly, in illegally hindering or obstructing the said officers or any of them in the execution of his or their duty, or in doing any manner of violence to them or any of them. In witness of all which, I have hereunto subscribed my hand, and the year above written. A. B.
By this Day's Mail.
LONDON, Sept. 14—24.
It is stated in a letter from Milan, dated on the 2d inst. that the French squadron in Juan Bay had been burnt by the combined fleets of England and Spain. We sincerely hope that this intelligence may be confirmed.
The following is a copy of a circular notice sent to all the commanders of the king's ships on the Mediterranean station:
"MEMORANDUM."
"Princess-Royal, Aug. 25, 1794."
"Information having been received, of the enemy having formed the iniquitous intention to load a vessel with wine, with poison in it, and let her fall into our hands; the Vice-Admiral makes the same known to the ships of the squadron, that they may be upon their guard accordingly; and as the intelligence comes from Genoa, and this diabolical design planned at that place, particular care is to be observed in not meddling with any wine cargo taken, which comes from the Eastward, and the crew of all suspicious vessels are to be carefully secured."
By the movements which his royal highness has been under the necessity of making, the idea of a junction with general Clairfait, if it was ever entertained, must now be abandoned. Breda and Bois-le-Duc are left open to attack, and it remains to be seen how the Dutch will defend themselves, when they have no covering army to look to.
The report of an important victory obtained by General Clairfait near Maestricht, on the 15th, is evidently unfounded.
Sir Gilbert Elliot is appointed Lord Lieutenant of the Kingdom of Corsica.
Lady Elliot and Suite set off yesterday for Bastia, where the Lord Lieutenant is to take up his residence.
The Prince of Saxe Cobourg being removed from the command of the combined Armies, all the distasteful of the campaign are imputed to him, although the Emperor assisted by Colonel Mack, commanded in person during the most important part of it, viz. when Pichegru lodged himself in West-Flanders, which decided the fate of all the subsequent operations. When the Duke of Brunswick was removed from the chief command, Cobourg was what Clairfait now is, the theme of ministerial praise; Clairfait may be soon what Cobourg and Brunswick now are, the scape goat of other men's blunders.
Accounts from Berlin of the 6th inst. say, that the Prussians took three more
redoubts before Warsaw on the 28th, and that the Poles were defeated on the day following, in an attempt to regain the ground they had lost; in this attack the Polish Colonel Branczkowski was killed. Other letters say, the Poles attacked the left wing of the Prussian army on the 30th, but were so warmly received that they left 1000 men upon the place. Ten more redoubts being taken from the Poles on the same day, there was the highest probability that the fate of Warsaw would soon be determined.
The calling of Parliament so early as the 4th of November for the dispatch of business, marks very strongly the deference of Ministers to the collective voice of the representatives of the nation. Those who recollect the high language which Mr. Fox, when minister, uniformly held towards the house of commons, will easily be able to judge which of the two, that gentleman or Mr. Pitt, is in fact, the most constitutional minister.
By the Paris papers of the instant it appears that Tallien and his party have lost their influence in the Jacobin Club, and in the Sections, as perfectly as in the Convention. In the Jacobin Club, a discussion took place on the attack which Lecointre made on the seven Members. Tallien was accused as his instigator, and it was called an intrigue which had for its object to excite a tumult in Paris. Dubois Crance was said also to be one of the chorus in the plot, but he justified himself. A motion was made for Lecointre and Tallien to be summoned as members, to give an account of their conduct, or to have their names expunged from the books.
PARIS, Aug. 27.
The Revolutionary Tribunal holds its sittings with great regularity; it is remarked, with much satisfaction, that the extreme rigor with which its sentences were pronounced under the dictatorship of Robespierre, is considerably relaxed. On the 17th and 18th inst. this Tribunal liberated several prisoners, and sentenced to death two persons only, Labrau and Laura. The 60 members of the Convention, who in 1793 signed a protest against the events of the 31st May are still confined; but their affairs will be taken into immediate consideration. The total number of prisoners without reckoning those in the Conciergerie, is 6360. It is calculated that if the tribunal had continued its massacres, at the rate of 40 or 50 per diem, there would, since the 22d of July, have been 1400 persons less in Paris, and probably 3000 prisoners more.
Sept. 1.
Renandiu, Captain of the Vengeur, which sunk in the action of the 1st of June, is arrived here from England. He was received with acclamations by the people, and the committee of Public Safety have appointed him to the command of a ship of the line lately launched at Brest.
ITALY.
The Arch Duke of Milan having returned from visiting the head quarters of the Piedmontese army, it was announced at the Theatre, where he appeared in the evening, that the French had abandoned several posts which they occupied. The fame is officially announced in the Gazette of Turin, with a number of circumstances, in which it appears that there was only one serious attempt to disturb the French in their retreat; but even this failed, owing to what is always termed the enemy's superiority of numbers.
By the reports of some deserters, the French army retreating through the valley of Limone, consisted of 15 battalions of infantry, and 800 cavalry, ten of them passed the Colle di Tenda on the 14th of August, and five of them took the route towards Nice. The French near Mondovi retreated towards Ormea and Gassio on the 18th ult. after setting fire to their works at Torey.
PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 15.
A Correspondent observes that Governor Lee has set the Jacobin Clubs an Herculean task, in proposing that they should resume their meetings for the purpose of reconsidering the representations they have made to the public—it would require more room than the insurgent papers could find, by excluding all advertisements for two years, to publish a full contradiction to all the lies, slanders and misrepresentations, with which they have persecuted the people for two years past.
A correspondent observes that certain paragraphs in the General Advertiser are undoubtedly founded on the best information from the patriotic army—it is whispered that certain persons have been fully informed that the presence, influence, and exertions of the Secretary of the Treasury, have contributed greatly, in conjunction with those of other patriotic characters, in bringing the western expedition to a favorable issue—time will ascertain the truth of many reports honorary to the person who has been so long the distinguished object of the arrows of malignity.
HALIFAX, Nov. 3.
DIED lately, in the pinoy woods of Pitt county, North Carolina where he had resided for 40 years past with his youngest son, who is in the 62d year of his age, Mr. WILLIAM TAYLOR, aged 114 years. He was born either in Virginia or this state—enjoyed for many years past a perfect state of health and on the morning of his death had set off to walk two miles to get a pair of shoes, but was seized with a fit shortly after he left home which carried him off.
CONGRESS.
In the House of Representatives of the United States,
Friday, the 14th of November, 1794.
Ordered, that a Committee of Claims be appointed, pursuant to the standing rules and orders of the House:
And a Committee was appointed of Mr. Tracy, Mr. Foster, Mr. Malbone, Mr. Montgomery, Mr. Heath, Mr. Chirrie and Mr. Mehan.
Extract from the Journal, JOHN BECKLEY, Clerk.
A standing Committee of Claims shall be appointed at the commencement of each session, to consist of seven members.
It shall be the duty of the said Committee of Claims to take into consideration all such petitions and matters or things touching claims or demands on the United States, as shall be presented, or shall, or may come in question, and be referred to them by the House, and to report their opinion thereupon, together with such propositions for relief therein, as to them shall seem expedient.
Extract from the standing rules and orders of the House. JOHN BECKLEY, Clerk.
The public are informed occasionally of the progress of our country in the arts of peace under the auspices of a government which secures to every man the acquisitions of his industry, the possession of life, liberty and property.
We hear from Nantucket that there are now building on that Island ten ships, from two to three hundred tons each, that there were lately in port belonging to the Island, upwards of thirty sail of the same description of vessels, besides others—that the Whale Fishery from thence has been very successful the past season—that every citizen has full employ—and that such was the general competence there enjoyed, that not a single person was dependant on public provision for his support.
What a happy situation, says a correspondent, must that country be in, where every passion hostile to the peace of society is so dormant that all the legislative functions may be suspended from week to week without the least inconvenience to the public!

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 Presi- dent of the United States is to embark immediately for London, and that he is au- thorized to bind the United States under the direction of Mr. Jay, for the costs and da- mages, attending the prosecution of the claims of American citizens; that the neces- sary 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 ex- penses of the records will be reimbursed by the United States. They are of opinion that measures ought to be immediately taken for obtain- ing authenticated copies of such records and proceedings in all cases where they have not already been preferred, and will under- take 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 infor- mation as the circumstances of the case may require. They recommend to those who have al- ready obtained the copies of the proceed- ings of the Courts to have them examined by some person of legal knowledge; that if they should be found defective in any re- spect 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.
NOTICE, Is hereby given to all persons, interest- ed in the cases of British captures, that Mr. Samuel Bayard, of the City of Phila- delphia, is appointed to proceed to Lon- don, as agent of claims and appeals; that the merchants of Philadelphia, whose pro- perty has been condemned, have appoint- ed a committee, consisting of Thomas Fitzsimons, James Yard, Stephen Girard, James Olden and J. Shoemaker, to confer occasionally with the Secretary of State: That copies of the letters, which have passed between the Committee and the Se- cretary, are transmitted to the several Coll. ctors in the United States, for the in- s- pection of all concerned: That the Com- mittee will adopt measures for procuring the records, yet wanting: And will enter into the proper correspondence in the U- nited States, and in the West Indies. The appointment of a committee was at the desire of the Secretary of State, for the convenience of persons at a distance. But any letters upon this subject are still to be addressed to him.
To the Merchants of the United States. At the special request of the secreta- ry of state, the committee appointed by the merchants of Philadelphia, have undertaken to obtain copies of the pro- ceedings of the courts in the British Islands, in the West-Indies: Bermuda, the Bahamas, and in their colonies, in North America, upon the cases of A- merican vessels, and property tried in the courts in any of the said Islands, or colonies.

It is deemed important that those particulars be furnished as soon as pos- sible. Nov. 8, 1794. The publishers of newspapers throughout the United States are re- quested to insert the above. d

Distant Subscribers For this Gazette, are hereby respectfully requested to pay up their Subscriptions to the first of January next. The Editor will be under the necessity of considering those who do not then renew their Sub- scription by paying Six Months in Ad- vance, as declining to take the Paper any longer. As there is a considerable sum due from remote Subscribers for the late half Weekly Paper published by the Editor, he most earnestly requests those who may be delin- quent, to take the earliest opportunity of remitting him the balance they may re- spectively be indebted—the sums are indi- vidually trifling—the want of the Aggre- gate is severely felt.

To the Public. A SUBSCRIPTION Is opened for Printing the Theological Writings OF Emanuel Swedenborg, At Francis Bailey's Book store, No. 216, Market Street, Philadelphia. WHEN a sufficient subscription takes place, a meeting will be advertised to con- sider the most eligible mode for conducting the printing of such of the Works as shall be thought to be of the greatest utility in the first instance. The following Treatises may be now had of Mr. Bailey's: The Doctrine of Life, or the Spiritual sense of the Ten Commandments. The Universal Theology of the New Church; which was foretold by the Lord in Daniel, chap. 7, v. 5, 13, 14, and in the Apocalypse, chap. 21, v. 3, 4, &c. A Summary View of the Heavenly Doc- trines of the New Jerusalem Church. As various opinions have been en- tertained respecting these invaluable writings and yet a person by rational argument has been able to refute them, but in fact these reports have been industriously propagated to discredit the honorable and enlightened Author, as well as his Works, we doubt not the candid and sincere inquirers after Truths of the highest importance, will se- riously examine these Works for themselves, in which it is to be hoped, that being in the pursuit and love of the Truth for the sake of its native excellence and use, they will regard them as they justly deserve, and in the end receive both profit and delight. eTut2w
