Foreign Intelligence.
VIA BOSTON.
LONDON Sep. 8.
We observed in our paper of Saturday, that the Cabinet Ministers held two very long sittings on the preceding days on the subject of a dispatch received from Paris on Thursday morning...
This intelligence is confirmed by letters received yesterday from Dover, which mention that a dispatch for the French Government was received at that place on Saturday morning at five o'clock...
AUGSBURG, Aug. 26.
Letters from Vienna of the 20th state that a courier had arrived from Naples, bringing the intelligence that an insurrection had broken out in Sicily...
It appears from the Naples Gazette, that the insurrection had very much increased both in Naples and in Palermo. Since the French entered Italy, between the 13th and 17th, there were above 400 persons arrested.
STRASBOURG, Aug. 30.
Positive news has been received here, that negotiations have been begun in Berlin, between citizen Buonaparte, and the Russian minister Krudener...
FRANKFORT, Aug. 25.
We yesterday received several letters from Vienna, dated on the 28th, which announce that the Emperor has obliged M. de Thugut to resign his place of first minister...
The elector of Cologne and the archduke Charles have expressed themselves decidedly against Thugut, which induced the emperor to dismiss him. Those two personages are in favour of peace.
The following letter we find in the Journal des Hommes Letters:
"Permit me, citizen editor, till to doubt the death of general Kieber, which has been announced almost officially. The remark which was made on this subject in the Moniteur is very sensible...
"It is necessary in going from Cairo to Joppa, to traverse the Desert; four days at least are necessary for this journey, and half of the road is travelled with difficulty.

PHILADELPHIA,
WEDNESDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 29.
The frigate New-York, R. V. Morris, Esq. commander, we understand left the watering place on Monday afternoon to proceed on a cruise. She will touch at Old Kiln roads for the purpose of taking under convoy such vessels as may wish to join her.
The hon. Levi Lincoln, Esq. Federal Representative has received 146 out of 170 votes, in Worcester, Mass. No other return has been received.
On Monday the 12th of October, the election was held in Charleston, S. C. for a Member of the House of Representatives of the United States, and a Senator and 15 Representatives in the Legislature of the State.
SEN. FOR.
Gen. C. C. Pinckney 623
Col. Wm. Lee 387
General Pinckney was consequently chosen by a majority of 236.
The votes for a Representative to Congress and for members of the House of Representatives, have not yet been counted over. Mr. Thomas Lowndes, the candidate for Congress, will without doubt be unanimously elected; and enter as honorably into public life, as ever so young a man did.
There can be no doubt also, of the Federal list for representatives having a handsome majority.
This day's Mail furnishes the following return of the Election in Georgia, for Congress:

Riotous assemblages of the people have taken place in various parts of England, in consequence of the high price of bread, corn, &c.—The military were found necessary to quell them, which they did, with the loss of the life of one person.

"Our ship fails better than any of those on the windward station, excepting the President, Commodore Truxton, with which we have not yet had a trial.
"On the 6th Sept. we discovered three sail to windward of us, a brig and two ships, we were then cruising to windward of Antigua—we chased several hours until night came on, when we lost sight of them. We have not since heard what they were.
"The crew is in remarkable good health."
From a London Paper.
A curious action was lately tried in the Marshalsea Court, to recover compensation in damages for loosing the use of two fingers, which happened in the following manner:—A Mrs. Lowry went into the shop of the defendant, a butcher in Goswell-street, to buy some meat, and while she was pointing out the place where she would have it cut, the butcher, in his eagerness to serve his customer, whip off a great slice, but at the same time wounded two of her fingers in such a manner as ever to deprive her of the use of them.—For the defendant it was contended, that the butcher was not responsible, as the act was not proved to have been done maliciously or wilfully. The jury, in consideration of the butcher not being in opulent circumstances, contented themselves with giving damages—thirty pounds.
Extract of a letter from a Commercial House in London, to a respectable Merchant of this city, dated September 3, 1800.
"At least we quote the present price of produce: the demand for hogs for the Dutch market, and through them for France, is pretty brisk, and they have lately advanced considerably; a fleece is rather dull, except the fine qualities, which go off readily."

"Our Legislature, which is now in session, has convinced us of its federalism by again electing Mr. Paine to represent us in the Senate of the United States. Gen.

The Diana, captain Breck, who arrived here on Monday last, from London, has furnished us with papers to the 8th of September, six days later than by the previous arrival from that quarter:—
These papers, furnish no events of great pitch and moment; their contents, however, will be found interesting to the inquiring mind. On the subject of the differences between Denmark and Great Britain, a pacific and friendly accommodation has taken place; of the political affairs of France and the nations contending against her, much conjecture and opinions are furnished, but nothing to afford a clew, whereby the real motives of either power can be developed; should the event of the negotiations, which were carrying on, during the armistice result in peace, it is however probable that England will be included in it. Of the negotiation with France and America, nothing official has transpired; nor any information on the subject, that can lead us to form an idea of the exact design or extent of the mission—The following letter, is from a very respectable source, and is the latest on that subject:
"London, September 8.
"A Gentleman of my acquaintance has just received a letter from an intelligent friend at Paris, dated the 2d instant, in which he expresses his satisfaction with the fair prospect of a success fullsome to our negotiations at Paris. There will be, he says, a treaty. This is certain that the Envoys have not left Paris, as reported in the English papers."
Extract of a letter from a gentleman in France, dated August 27, 1800.
"As the Envoys of the United States send dispatches by this conveyance, I presume it superfluous for me to state an opinion on the present jurisprudence of the Council of Prizes, which appears to be much changed since the decision on the Pigeon's case. But I transmit you a copy of that on the Portland, by which you will perceive, that very little justice is to be expected of this boasted Council of Prizes.
"The gold dust and ivory pillaged from the Nancy, of Boston has been confiscated to the profit of the Republic, but I understand that the captors entertain hopes of recovering it notwithstanding.
"I send for your perusal three numbers of a paper published here, one of which contains a letter on the subject of the pending negotiation. I am directed (if Mr. F's publication of the 13th Thermidor, in the Bourdeaux paper, should be sent to America, as is thought probable) to include one, and that says that the negotiation is not broke off nor suspended, and never has been—and that the Statute, Republican and Portland have been condemned since the Pigeon was discharged—Role d'Equipage and Sea Letter again the protest—and the whole of one of the cargoes, though part only was contraband, condemned—the vessel set free; the Statute, the Captain of which advises from Paimpol, that she is a mere wreck—no freight, damages or interest are allowed him."
"The author of this letter is generally believed to be Mr. F. and the subsequent publication in the paper of the 27th Thermidor appears to corroborate it. As Mr. F. goes passenger in this ship, it is reasonable to presume he will carry his publication with him."
Extra of a letter from Bourdeaux, of the same date.
"General Berthier passed through this on the 25th instant, on his way to Madrid. His mission is thought a very important one, and it is conjectured that its object is to induce to the invasion of Portugal."
The average price of Sugar in London, computed from the returns made for the week ending the 3d day of September 1800, is sixty-nine shillings and three-pence per hundred weight.

To all folks' curiosity, I'm about to tell a story 'Tis the life of Trench Coxe, From a Calf to an Ox, And here it is before you When Howe came o'er to conquer us And turn us from bad courses, Thinks Trench, I've a chance My wealth to advance If I join the British forces.
But Trench was out in politics For, says Howe one foggy morning "I shall surely go frantic! "On this side the Atlantic, So I'll e'en think of returning."
Thus left in the vocative By that gallant invader, Says Trench, "It won't do "This course to pursue So I'll e'en turn Trader."
But as the Devil would have it His ill-fortune never rested, For in a year, or more, He shot up his Store, And his Bills came back protested. Then away he went to Washington, As an humble petitioner, Saying, "Good Sir, believe me, "I'll never more deceive ye— "So he made him Commissioner."
Tench had got so used to queer tricks That quiet gave him the vapours So he cried out "Odd-Sniggers," "I am tired of Figures" And took to scribbling in the papers.
When Adams heard these doings! Says he to Timothy Pickering, "This Trench is a disgrace "So turn him out of place— "I don't care six pence for his bickering."
Now Tench was very much divided Whether to turn Patriot, Jew, or Pagan, But he wrote for McKean, And as you see very plain, He has got another Office again.
But there's another story goes about, And I'll tell it to you pleasure ye If he writes in friend Thomas, He has got his solemn promise, To be secretary of the Treasury.
"He was a merchant and failed. Of the Revenue.
"It is said he was turned out in consequence of writing some political essays against Adams's election. Jefferson.
