FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE.
By THIS DAY'S MAIL.
NEW-YORK, July 17.
Yesterday evening arrived at this port the ship Factor, Capt. Kemp, 38 days from London. We have been put in possession of English papers to the 5th of JUNE—several days the latest.
Our first attention was directed towards the pending negotiation with France, but we have not been able to discover a single article relating to that important business.
A continuation of interesting details will be given in our next.
LONDON, May 29.
We have received Paris Journals to the 26th inst. inclusive. They contain but little official intelligence of a later date than what we had before. A telegraphic communication from Hunningen, of the 21st inst. says that nothing new had occurred on the Rhine; and the unofficial letters speak so vaguely that nothing certain can be learnt from them.
If we may credit a letter from the banks of the Danube, dated the 18th, the hostile armies were then in the Ulm—Moreau at Kiechenberg, one league from Ulm, and Kray near Inne, half a league from the same city. Gen. Sztarray, however, had been able to effect his junction with the latter, in spite of the obstacles thrown in his way by Gen. St. Suzanne. The circumstances of the Austrians may therefore be considered as somewhat improved; and besides, they are now in such a situation that they may probably be able to avoid an action till they receive the reinforcements which are to join them.
In other quarters the success has been various. On the Northern frontiers of the Sardinian dominions, the French have passed the Ot St. Bernard, and taken Aosta. The Austrians, it would appear on the other hand, have been successful in the South, and taken the city of Nice.
The official paper states, that the Prince has retired to Immenstadt, and abandoned Bregenz to the French.
A letter from Straubing of the 21st speaks of an action between Ettingen and Reithingen, but in such a loose manner that it hardly deserves notice.
Bonaparte, of date the 18th, writes to the minister of the Interior, that in three days all would be over in Piedmont. We may therefore soon expect important news from that quarter. General Melas, thus formidable threatened, must assemble all his force; and if he has not already taken Genoa, he will probably be induced to abandon the enterprise, for his forces do not admit of being divided into two divisions, sufficient both to cope with the army of Buonaparte, and to withstand the combined efforts of Massena and Suinet. To this theatre of war, therefore, every eye is directed. The events which it is about to exhibit involve the fortune of the campaign and of the war.
The Moriteur states, that the Austrians are preparing to quit the Grisons, and to retire into the Tyrol. Should this prove true, the French, as the same paper asserts, must soon be masters of all the passes leading to the Tyrol and Italy.
It is said that the corps of Conde is to embark at Leghorn for the Milanese, and that England is to send 20,000 troops under Gen. Abercromby. If this intelligence, which from Frankfort, be correct, it explains satisfactorily the destination of the troops lately sent to the Mediterranean.
These Journals throw some light on the mysterious affair of an action having taken place between Kleber and the Grand Vizier. As far as our materials enable us to form an opinion, the following appears to be the fact: Our Commander in the Mediterranean, until he should receive instructions, from our Government refused free passage to any ships from Alexandria: in the interim the Grand Vizier expected the French to evacuate Cairo, &c. and to act as if the passports and guarantee from the Allies of the Porte had been already procured. Kleber however, thought otherwise, and before the concurrence of our cabinet could arrive, matters had proceeded so far as to occasion the misunderstanding which brought on a renewal of hostilities.
A letter from a gentleman attached to Sir Sidney Smith's squadron, and which was brought by the bearer of the last overland dispatch from India, gives the following detail respecting this affair:
"Hostilities were unexpectedly renewed by the French, when the Grand Vizier had advanced without suspicion with a very small body of troops, within five leagues of Cairo. His defeat was, I fear, a serious one; though his infantry are said to have taken possession of Cairo, while the French were pursuing the Turkish cavalry. His highness has, I hope, ere this, reached Gaza."
The Captain Pacha will sail from hence on Saturday with a superb fleet for Egypt [seven of the line, four frigates, and six frigates] with many troops on board. Fresh levies are ordered for Egypt from every side of the Empire, and it is hoped they will be able to terminate a war which has been so long and so disastrously prosecuted.
May 30.
On Monday the Union Bill was read a second time in the Irish House of Commons. On the question for its committal.
Mr. Grattan arose, and after some objections to the structure of the bill conflicting more of logic than argument, went largely into the detail, concluding by a prophecy, that should an Union take place, a rebellion will at some distant period be the consequence.
Lord Castlereagh, in reply, glanced at Mr. Grattan's prophecy in a spirited and animated manner; and said, that whatever effect such prophecy may have, or with whatever intention uttered, it had no effect on him; and the energies of government would put down one rebellion as another. This produced on the part of Mr. G. some observations of an acrimonious and personal nature, which drew from Lord C. the remark, that such activity as had proceeded from the hon. gentleman, should never be answered by him in that house, but out of it.
Mr. Flucker spoke to the motion, after which the house divided; Ayes 128; Noes 73. Lord C. then moved the committal on Tuesday; and Mr. Grattan moved an amendment, that it be committed on the first of August; this amendment was on another division negatived. Ayes 87; Noes 124. A debate next arose on the original motion for the bill being committed on Friday, which was carried without a division, and the house then adjourned.
In consequence of the very great inconvenience lately experienced by the West India merchants and planters, owing to the capture of so many West India packets, the admiralty have consented to send an armed cutter with the Mails of the 4th of June for Jamaica and the Leeward Islands, which is to sail from Falmouth on the 7th or 8th of that month; and in the following week a packet is ordered by the postmaster general to sail with another mail for the same places, to take duplicates, &c. and to afford as much accommodation to the public, as the nature of the case will admit.
May 31.
The Hamburg Mail, due on Wednesday last, arrived late last night. It does not, however, bring any intelligence which can allay the public anxiety on the subject of the hostile armies in Suabia, the greater part of its contents having been anticipated by the Paris papers which arrived on Thursday, the letters from that part of the seat of war being only one day later than those received by that conveyance.
It was reported at Hamburg on the evening of the 24th, that a battle was fought between Augsbourg and Ulm, on the 16th or 17th of May. This report we conceived to have been founded on the latter from Heilbronn, of the 16th inst. which states, that a violent cannonade had been heard during the whole of that day from the neighbourhood of Ulm.
June 2.
Our Plymouth letter of this day states the arrival of the Havic sloop of War, capt. Bartholomew, who had fallen in with a frigate, from which he learnt that the combined fleets were under sail on Tuesday last, and that thirteen sail of them were completely out of the harbour of Brest, and the remainder getting out as fast as possible. As the channel fleet passed Plymouth on Tuesday, and the squadron in Cawsand Bay were ordered out immediately, there was every reason to hope that our force would come up with them; and we believe no one entertains any doubt as to the result of such a meeting.
There are private letters in town from Paris, brought over by the last cartel, which mention that Buonaparte had written to the two consuls, to say, "that in 3 days from the date of his letter he should be at Milan; and in a fortnight all would be over." It would be very idle in us to attempt to explain the meaning of this expression; all that we can vouch for is, that letters of this tendency have come from Paris.
June 4.
Last night we received Paris papers to the 1st. inst. inclusive. The recent date of the articles from Suabia, brought by the Hamburg mails which arrived on Monday last, has in the present instance left but little to be told by those journals, except what might be conveyed by the telegraph. No communication of this kind has been made, so that we may conclude either that nothing has taken place, or at least, nothing advantageous to the republicans. In the journal de Paris it is stated, that a cannonade was heard at Augsbourg on the 20th, one day later than our information from that place by the mail, and that it was supposed to proceed from the bombardment of Ulm. Others impute to Moreau a design of previously attacking Augsbourg.
The papers of the 30th ult. give us a detailed account of the operations of the army of reserve which Buonaparte had mentioned in a few lines. The head quarters of the Chief Consul were on the 24th at Aosta. General Lannes had on the 23rd made himself master of the town and citadel of Ivrea, and the Imperialists had retreated towards Turin.
Respecting Massena, we have an article, signed by the minister of war, remarkable for the manner in which it communicates the official intelligence which the minister states himself to have received. "The chief of the general staff of the army of Italy writes from Nice on the 10th May. At that period we know from the London Gazette Extraordinary, published on Sunday last, that he could, had he thought proper, have communicated some very important intelligence respecting himself. From the same authority we are enabled to form an opinion of the credit due to his intelligence of the operations of Massena, who he says made a sortie on the night of the 3rd in which he completely defeated the enemy, and took 1,800 prisoners, and another sortie on the following night, in which he took three thousand prisoners."
Carnot adds, that he had been informed that Genoa was victualled until the 14th instant. The Austrians are stated, in a letter from the Attributes of the 15th ult. to have evacuated Nice.
The Ami des Loix, one of the few remaining French Journals, has been suppressed, for some severe animadversions on the proceedings of the National institute.
The Hamburg mail due this morning, arrived just as this paper was about to be put to press. It brings accounts of the advantages obtained by the Austrians over the Republicans in Italy, which the London Gazette Extraordinary of Sunday last stated.
A letter from Roveredo, states, that the capitulation with Massena was already so far advanced, that the Imperialists were expected to enter Genoa on the 15th ult.
From Ulm we learn that the Imperial army in that quarter was informed, in General Orders of the Austrians having entered Nice on the 14th, and that Genoa had begun to capitulate on the 13th.
From Stuttgart under date of the 23rd, and from Gualzburg under date of the 21st, we learn that the French, after unsuccessful fighting, had entirely withdrawn from the Blauch. They had retreated a considerable way towards Piperach and Memmingen; and the Austrians, were again at Ehingen.
The King of Spain's Edict, of the 17th of July last, giving a forced circulation to the Vales or Royal debentures, has been recently suspended in favour of the French merchants, whose bills upon Spain will henceforth be paid in spec.
June 1.
CAPTURE OF GENOA.
Late last night a messenger arrived at the Admiralty with dispatches from Lord Keith, containing intelligence of the capture of Genoa by the Austrians. This most interesting event, evidently anticipated on the first defeats of Massena but judged from subsequent accounts every day more improbable, took place on the 12th ult. The place was carried by assault. The French have lost a great number of men, near 2000 were taken prisoners, and the rest of Massena's army sought safety in the surrounding heights, from whence they were flying in every direction when the dispatches above alluded to was sent off. In this bold enterprise the Austrians lost one of their generals.
Twenty vessels laden with grain, destined for the relief of that city, were taken by the English fleet. The army of reserve has met with considerable opposition as it has advanced into Piedmont, the inhabitants having risen in great numbers against the French. Nice is also in possession of the Austrians under Melas. The particulars of this important intelligence will be given in an Extraordinary Gazette this morning.
We state the above on the authority, perfectly aware however, how improbable every part of it is; but how an argument from improbabilities be urged against facts positively alleged? Were we to speculate on the cause, we might urge the improbability of a part of the Austrian force being able to take Genoa, on the enterprise which the whole was unable to achieve. The Piedmontese peasants, may have risen, but that they should give a serious obstruction to the march of Buonaparte is idle, and if Nice be actually in possession of Melas, he may soon experience the fate of Massena.
May 21.
Times Office, Wednesday morning, 3 o'clock.
After this paper went to press, an Express from Dover reached our office. It is only possible to make a very short statement of their contents.
In a letter from General Massena to General Melas, dated Genoa, April 21, the former refuses a capitulation, saying he has full troops to defend the place.
A letter from Straubing of the 19th, mentions that the French troops still occupy Offenburg and Gengenbach; that the communication between Fribourg and Old Brisch is interrupted, and that the German peasants commit horrid massacres. The communication with the Interior of Suabia, by the valley of Kinzig is open. The Austrians are said to retire on all sides.
In the battle of the 2d and 5th, the Journals state the loss on both sides to be 10,000 killed, and 18,000 wounded. The French troops on the last of these days had begun to give way, when Moreau put himself at the head of the cavalry, and encouraged his troops, which decided the day.
By another letter from Straubing, it appears that the Austrians had regained possession of Stockach, but were driven from it a second time. The date is not mentioned.
The Hereditary Prince of Wurtemberg, who serves under gen. Kray, is stated to be made prisoner.
There was another battle on the 7th, when the Austrians are confessed to have had the advantage.
On the 9th, the armies were engaged a fourth time. The French attacked the Austrians at Biberach, and made 2000 prisoners. The French are marching against Ulm. On that day the French occupied Lindau, and were preparing to attack Bregenz.
The Army of Reserve is marching partly towards the Rhine—part towards Piedmont. Buonaparte was at Lausanne on the 13th, where the Head-Quarters of the army of Reserve were established.
A Telegraphic dispatch from Hunningen, dated the 16th May, announces as follows.
"The right wing of the army, commanded by Gen. LECOURBE, attacked the enemy on the 11th in his position at Memmingen. The enemy is completely beaten. Memmingen is in our hands. Two thousand men were made prisoners and a great number of killed were left on the field of battle."
Genoa, was still in possession of the French on the 27th of April; but the Austrians have received large reinforcements, and the French have fallen back on Vintimiglia. Fears are entertained for Nice.

The Prefect of the Department of War, to the Municipal Agents.
Draguignan, 19 Floreal, May 9.
Temporary successes, due to numbers rather than to courage, have opened to the enemy the road of our frontiers. They menace those of the department. If they will to force them, they shall find their tombs; of this they have several times had fatal experience; but it might be possible that malevolence may profit by our momentary reverses to excite troubles. You are magistrates of the people, you ought to know what are your duties and what your responsibility. It is in difficult moments that our faculties ought to be emerged, and that our devotion ought to be unlimited, we must set the examples of sacrifices. Prepare your fellow-citizens to defend themselves with the energy of a free people; should our sacred territory be profaned, let every man become a soldier; let every thing be used for arms, should we be in want of them; our mountains, our position, place us in a state to defend ourselves with our single means; we should be invincible, for it is our freedom we defend. At your voice let that love of your country which produced our first successes, awake in all hearts; let every one rise and be ready to obey that terrible cry which I am about to cause to be heard—To arms!
(Signed) "G. FAUCHET."
ARMY OF RESERVE.
The General in Chief, Berthier, to the Army ORDER OF THE DAY.
Head-Quarters, St. Brancher, 26 Floreal, May 16.
Soldiers! the army of the Rhine is gaining great victories; that of Italy contends against an army superior in number, and balances the victory by prodigies of valor. It is for you my companions to rival them in glory, and to re-conquer beyond the Alps, that brilliant theatre of French valour. Conscript the hour of battle is come; your hearts burn to equal those old soldiers, many times conquerors. You will learn with them to support privations, and to overcome the fatigues inseparable from war. Never forget that victory is only obtained by valour and discipline—Soldiers! Buonaparte is near you to enjoy your new triumphs, you will prove that you are still the brave men who have rendered themselves illustrious in the armies. France and humanity demand peace, from you, and you are going to conquer it.

I am at the foot of the Grand Alps, in the midst of the Valais, the great St. Bernard offered many obstacles, which have been surmounted. The third of the artillery is in Italy; the army is descending by forced marches; Berthier is in Piedmont; in three days all will be over.
This letter arrived last night; it occasions a presumption that at this hour Piedmont is in our power.—Postscript to the Moniteur of the 23rd of May.

LONDON.
Late on Friday evening two messengers arrived from government dispatches, one from Constantinople, and the other from Florence. The latter is said to bring important intelligence. The French General Souhet, is said to have been defeated by General Melas, with the loss of 2 officers and 1,520 prisoners, and great numbers of killed and wounded. Gen. Kaim is said to have entered Nice; and Melas's headquarters were at Alberga. Gen. Massena had made another sortie from Genoa on the 3rd, but was repulsed with the loss of 1,200 men.
Lord Minto arrived at Vienna, and was on court on the 18th inst.
Accounts from Suabia state, that on the 15th inst. a heavy cannonade was heard the whole day in the direction of Ulm, from which it was supposed a general engagement had taken place.
The intelligence of General Kleber having defeated the army of the Grand Vizier, is fully confirmed.
There was a report yesterday, that the Austrians having got possession of a post in the immediate neighbourhood of Genoa, Massena ordered the commander of the post to be tried by a court-martial on his return, and instantly shot. We do not know whether this be true or not, but it is extremely probable that an officer who did not do his duty, would be treated as he deserved by a General like Massena.

Dispatches of which the following are copies, have been this day received from William Wickham, Esq. his Majesty's minister plenipotentiary and commissary at the Imperial Royal and allied Armies, and from Lieut. col. Clinton, by the right hon. Lord Grenville, his majesty's principal secretary of state for the foreign department.
H. ad Quarters, Memmingen, May 10, 1800.
My Lord,
I Have the honour to inform your Lordship, that the army marched in the course of the night of the 6th to Langen Boffingen; the enemy sent only a detachment to observe the movement of the Austrians on the left of the Danube, and marched with the main body of his army in a direction which gave gen. Kray an apprehension for his communication with Lieut. gen. Prince Reuss in the Vorarlberg; to preserve which, he hastened by a forced march, re-crossing the Danube at Reidingen to Biberach, which place he reached in the afternoon of the 8th. The army took a position behind the Riss. The enemy, however still had the advance, and already occupied Waldsee. On the 9th the Austrian advanced posts in front of the Riss, were vigorously attacked and driven in. Gen. Kray wishing to avoid engaging in a general affair, fell back at night to Ochsenhausen. Every report of the enemy stated that he was still marching by his right. This morning the army crossed the Iller in two columns at Illerfingen; and near this place the troops had scarcely reached their ground when the enemy began a fresh attack on the left; at the same time a report was received, that a strong column was on its march to Kempton. Every thing announced on the part of the enemy the intention of an attack. General Kray therefore had determined to proceed to Ulm, where he will be joined by the corps of Gen. Starry, consisting of ten battalions and a large proportion of cavalry, besides the second division of the Bavarians. The affair of this day, in which the Bavarians distinguished themselves much to the

a satisfaction of General Kray, terminated in one of the advanced posts.
(Signed) H. CLINTON.
Donawerth, May 13, 1800.
My Lord—I have much satisfaction in transmitting to your Lordship the enclosed extract from the general orders issued by the commander in chief to the Imperial army on the 11th instant, bearing the most honorable testimony to the conduct of the first division of the Bavarian troops in the service of his majesty, commanded by colonel baron de Wrede, acting as a brigadier general. Too much cannot be said in praise of the exertions that have been made on this occasion by their serene highnesses, the Elector of Bavaria and the Duke of Wurtemberg, to put the subsidiary troops in a situation to take the field, to hasten their march towards the Austrian army, and in every respect to fulfill and make good the engagements they had severally contracted with his Majesty.
(Signed) W. WICKHAM.
Extract from the General Orders of the Imperial and Royal Army in Germany.
The Bavarian troops distinguished themselves so much by their bravery and their steadiness in the action of yesterday, that I feel myself bound to give this public assurance to their commander, colonel baron de Wrede, as well as to the officers and the whole corps, not only that I am satisfied with their conduct, but that I owe them my best thanks, which I beg them to accept.
Donawerth, May 13, 1800.
My Lord—I have the satisfaction to inform your Lordship, that general Kray having been attacked on the 11th instant, on his march from Memmingen, where, in consequence of this success, he left a considerable corps under general Merfeld, who is charged to keep open the communication with prince Reuss in the Vorarlberg. The main army returned to Ulm, where it has effected its junction with the second division of the Bavarian subsidiary army, and with general Stary.

NEW-YORK, July 15.
Extract of a letter from captain Boit, of the sloop General Greene, to his owner in this city, dated Liverpool, Nova-Scotia, July 5, 1800.
"I have only time to inform you that I arrived here in the sloop General Greene, about 4 hours since, sent in by the British privateer Rover, belonging here. I was captured in lat. 31, N. long. 60, W. from London—all my crew detained on board the privateer, and have been from the time we were first taken, which is ten days ago.
On what pretence the vessel is sent in, God only knows; all that I have been able to learn is that she is Dutch property. The day after I was captured they broke out the cargo, and you can easily judge of the damages it has sustained by a set of privateermen, breaking open and cutting the bales and packages of goods. As yet I have not been permitted to go on shore, as soon as I am, shall make my regular protest, and embrace the first opportunity to get to Halifax, in order to produce the best advice for further proceedings.

PHILADELPHIA, FRIDAY EVENING, JULY 18.
AN EXTRA GAZETTE was issued this morning from the Office of the Gazette of the United States. As many of our readers may not have seen it, we have re-published its contents in this afternoon's paper.
Many original Essays are unavoidably omitted.
A gentleman informs, that a report circulates in N. York, brought by the Factor, of Lord St. Vincent's having sent several fire ships, covered by seventeen gun boats, into the harbour of Brest, and totally burnt up the French and Spanish Fleets.
Yesterday arrived the Lavinia from London; brings accounts to May 22d—consequently nothing so late as by the Factor at New-York.
Captain Smith of the United States brig Sophia informs, that on the 9th of July he fell in with and spoke the brig Robert from Amsterdam bound to Baltimore, (3 days out, all well, in lat. 34, 51. long. 72, 40, the captain of the Robert informed him that in long. 22, W. he was boarded by a French privateer from France and treated politely. It was currently reported at Amsterdam, that the difference between America and France was nearly settled. Capt. Nichols informs that he failed in company with the following vessels: The ship Pallas, Mariner for Philadelphia; ship Mary for New-York; ship Washington, do; brig Zebree, Perkins, Baltimore, from Curacao, under convoy of the Delaware sloop of war.
Brig Sally, D. Wilson of Philadelphia was to sail from Curacao for Cape Francois about the 4th of July.
Capt. Morfe of the schr. Nancy informs, that he failed from St. Thomas the 2d of July; that the Adams frigate arrived at St. Thomas the 28th June, and failed from thence the 30th with a fleet, consisting of 50 sail of American, English and prize vessels for the United States and other ports. Among them was the brig James, Duer, of Philadelphia, bound toeward. Captain M. states also, that on the 24th June, while at St. Thomas, the Baltimore sloop of war appeared off that harbor, having in tow a ship which was said to be her prize, a French corvette, captured by her after a smart action, and that both vessels were much shattered. No Philadelphia vessels were at St. Thomas when capt. W. failed. An hermaphrodite brig, name unknown, has been cast away on Arrecado reef, and capt. Tatem in a vessel from Philadelphia had arrived at St. Croix after a long passage.
The first Consul of the French Republic was born on the 15th of August, 1760, at Ajaccio, in the island of Corsica: his Christian name Napoleon. His three brothers are, Lucien Buonaparte, minister of the interior; Joseph Buonaparte, formerly at Rome; and Louis Buonaparte, formerly adjutant in Egypt, now commanding a regiment in Vendee. Buonaparte has three sisters.
Yesterday evening was married by the Right Rev. Bishop Carroll, Mr. Charles Carroll, jun. son of the Hon. Charles Carroll, of Carrollton, Maryland, to Miss Harriet Chew, daughter of the Hon. Benjamin Chew, of this city.
From the New-York Gazette.
Mr. Roger is the bearer of dispatches from our Commissioners at Paris, as late as the 25th of April, being Duplicates of these sent by Mr. Forbes, who was to have failed from St. Sabastian. As we have no accounts of their having been received, it is probable these dispatches are the first from our Envoys—They are said to be important.
[We are led to believe, that the politics of America at present, in Paris, are of a secondary nature—all their attention is bent towards the conquering their European enemies—Bye and bye it is said, they will have more time to talk to us.]
A gentleman arrived here yesterday in the ship Rose, from Guernsey, informs, that he saw a London paper of the 22d of May, which contained an account of two other bloody battles on the Danube, between the French and the Austrians, in which the former obtained some further advantages. The number killed was not then ascertained, but the slaughter on both sides was said to have been very great.

The following charming lines from Prior will apply to those modern belles, who have discarded that simplicity and modesty of dress, which Nature Propriety and Reason dictate.
—Ye, immodest of your kind, Muse leave the habit and the sex behind. No longer there the comely tresses break, In flowing ringlets on the Snowy neck; Or fit behind the head; an ample round, In graceful braids with various ribbon bound, No longer shall the bid ice aptly lac'd, From the full bosom to the slender waist, That air and harmony of shape express, FINE BY DEGREES and BEAUTIFULLY LESS. Nor fail the lower garments artful pleat From the fair side dependent to the feet Arm their chaste beauties with a modest pride And double every charm they seek to hide. The amorous plenty of each fair one's hair Crest off and lost, scarce lower than the ear Shall stand uncouth, and horsemanship cost The taper waist and comeliness of side.
[The following, if not melodious poetry is wholesome truth.]
From Eternity. A POEM: Addressed to Freethinkers and Philosophical Christians. By JOHN JAMIESON, D.D. F.A.S.S.
We extract the following description of the Death-Bed of the Gallic scoffers,
VOLTAIRE. "But when Voltaire a dreary death-bed pres'd, Not all the heathenish rites could sooth to rest. Nor witty jest, nor sophism can please; Nor flattery's tunes his troubled conscience ease. He feels the weight of his own guilty crime, And feels the weight of his own guilty crime. 'Twas fill'd with joy, with worldly fame while flush'd; Too late he finds, himself alone is crush'd. That sumptuous throne, contemptuously he spurn'd, With horrid vengeance on his head return'd. Eternity, of mortal days the ineen, Seen as at hand, o'erwhelms his heart with fear. From friends in guilt he seeks forsook in vain; He views them only to increase his pain. Now, he invokes, of other help forlorn, The object of his former hate and scorn. Then mad with anguish and despair, blasphemes; Or to his fellow-fopplers exclaims; 'Tis you have brought me to this wretched state: Your pride more baneful than the tiger's hate. That blissful peace you rob'd me of restore; Or with your presence torture me no more.' Oft begs they, would ghastly counsel call: Indignant they refuse; 'twould shame them all. Their dying chief they from all comfort bar; Even such the mercies of the wicked are; His keen remorse in vain they strive to vail; For well known facts belie their flimsy tale. In supor aid his waiting songs to vail; Hence all their boasting that "he calmly dy'd."

Papers examined by the officer who was called her first lieutenant.
He acted in a very cavalier and rather haughty manner; finally after a number of impertinent observations and questions, took out a young man, called George Sharp, a native of the county of Durham, in England, a passenger on board, going to Philadelphia on business; he boasted that he had taken out numbers and their property, and would repeat the same when he pleased—They said her name was the Terentagant, but I have good reason to suppose her the Cleopatra, I. P. New, commander—In the morning after leaving us saw him bring too and board a ship bound to the eastward.
