EXTRACT FROM THE PREFACE.
The authors have presumed to affix to their title the epithet Impartial ; and the reason is, because they cannot charge themselves with feeling the smallest bias to any party, but that of truth and liberty; and they flatter themselves, that their readers will find not only every circumstance fairly represented, but every censurable action, wherever the authors or actors, marked in its proper colors. If it was necessary to make a declaration of their own principles, they would say, they are neither tory nor republican—They love liberty as English whigs, and execrate every criminal act by which no noble cause is endangered and disgraced.
In the present ferment of the public mind, they cannot flatter themselves with the hopes of seeing this claim universally acknowledged. On the contrary, they are well assured that these pages will not be acceptable to the zealots of either party. But when time shall dissipate the clouds of political deception, they will with some confidence expect that verdict from public opinion, which candor and moderation seldom fail to receive.

CONTINUATION OF THE LATEST FOREIGN ADVICES, By the ship MANCHESTER.
L O N D O N, March 9. The charges against Col. d'Hervilly, &c. upon which the commission of twenty-one could not tell on the 23d when they should be able to report, are still the source of dissention, and of alarm, real or pretended. The clamour against the parties accused appears to be so strong, that the commission will hardly venture to report that there is not sufficient ground for putting them upon their trial.
Delacroix, the author of the pamphlet containing expressions in favor of Royalty, has been acquitted, because it did not appear that his pamphlet was written with a view of disturbing the public peace, or with counter-revolutionary intentions.
Another prisoner who, having repeatedly demanded in vain to be brought to trial, wrote to the public Accuser that he knew how to compel him to bring him to trial, and added that he was a Royalist, and not only wished for, but called loudly for a King, was acquitted upon the same grounds.
On the 27th, assignats to the amount of fourteen millions of livres were burnt making with those before cancelled, 2,596,683,000.
The private letters from Dublin give the most alarming account of the ferment in that country. The counties were all to be assembled for the purpose of addressing the Lord Lieutenant on the present dangerous situation of public affairs; and it is generally believed that the Noble Earl will not think it safe to quit the country in the present temper of men's minds, until his successor shall arrive. The rumour was, that Mr. Windham had written a most pressing letter to his Lordship, beseeching him to continue, and to wait the result of the explanations that would yet be attempted.—This the Noble Earl certainly will not do; but it is probable he may postpone his return beyond the 8th inst.
The Sardinian Ambassador to the States General of Holland, having thought it prudent not to remain at the Hague, fled from that place and arrived at Embden, with an intention of getting a passage to England, but in coming across the ice to get to the vessels it broke under him, and he was drowned. Two or three other persons shared the same fate.
The Begleberg of Romelia was to be sent against the rebellious Pacha of Scutari, but it was feared that this Commander would experience the fate of many others, who have been defeated by that rebel, especially as the former is without military experience.
The Duke Regent of Sweden has thought proper to deviate from the first article of the late King's will, which expressly forbade him and the young King to make any Knights of the Seraphim during his minority; but upon the King's late return to the Capital he was persuaded by his Uncle to make a great number of these new Knights. Among their names are those of the Barons d'Esse, Reutersholm, Wachmeister Steding, and Count Brake. The Duke Regent, as Grand Master of the Order, pronounced a long disconcourse on the occasion.
BRUSSELS, Feb. 18. The Republicans have made themselves masters of Emmerick, a strong town on the right bank of the Rhine, between the fort of Schenck and Belf. The Austrian troops that were in the neighbourhood of Emmerick and Wesel, are filing off towards Dusseldorf and Kerserweert. It is presumed that the object of these movements is to disengage Luxembourg.
The corps of the army of the Sambre and Meuse, that were in quarters in the countries of Juliers and Limbourg, have advanced to the Rhine. All the left bank of which is provided with batteries and formidable entrenchments.
The Inhabitants of Belgium have learned with the most lively gratitude, that it is the intention of the French Government to deliver them at length from the rule of the Committees of Superintendence, and to make them enjoy the blessings of liberty. The Representatives of the People have announced and explained by a regulating order, the dispositions of an order of the Committee of Public Safety, of which the following is the tenor:—
Extract from the Register of the orders of the Committee of Public Safety of the National Convention, Feb. 10. The Committee of Public Safety after having conferred with the Committee of Finance, upon the objects
hereafter mentioned, and conformably to its advice, orders:—
 1. The committees of Superintendence and the Revolutionary Committees are suppressed in the conquered countries, and especially in Belgium.  2. The penalties imposed in default of payment of contributions, are remitted to the conquered countries.  3. What remains to be paid of the Contributions, may be paid half in money and half in assignats.  4. The Hostages taken for payment of Contributions shall be instantly liberated, and sent to their respective homes. The payment shall be pursued only by judicial means.  5. No requisition shall be made in the conquered countries, except for supplying the Armies with provisions. Requisitions of this kind shall be addressed to the constituted Authorities, who are responsible for causing them to be executed. All the agents employed in other requisitions are suppressed.  6. The maximum shall cease to have effect in Belgium, and in the conquered countries.

DUBLIN, March 2.
Yesterday there was a Levee at the Castle, which was very numerously attended.
Saturday the Rev. Dr. Troy, and a number of Gentlemen who presented the several addresses from the Irish Catholics to the Lord Lieutenant, were entertained at a superb state dinner by his Excellency in Dublin Castle. Several of the nobility and gentry of the first distinction were, in consequence of invitations, present on this occasion.
The open magnanimity of the Catholics was never more amply displayed than in the meeting at Francis-Chapel last Friday; at once they resolved to send a deputation to his Majesty, and lay their grievances at the feet of the Throne; the moment demanded energy and dispatch; their dearest interests were at stake.
From the unanimity which prevailed in the Exchange last Saturday, in passing the resolution in favor of the Catholics, we are happy to observe, it is now considered not as the question of a party, but as one which involves the indisputable interest of Ireland.
IRISH PARLIAMENT.
HOUSE OF COMMONS.
Monday, March 2.
When the report of the Great Money Bill was brought up, Sir Lawrence Parsons moved, that it should be limited to two months. He took a comprehensive view of the present situation of Ireland. He asserted, that if the House suffered itself to be the dupes of the British minister it would be the most debased and degraded Assembly that ever legislated for any country.
Speaking of the conduct of the British cabinet to the Catholics, he exclaimed, "If the Demon of Darkness had insinuated himself into the British councils to throw the firebrand of discord thro' this country, he could have devised nothing more malignant; nothing more mischievously successful, than to raise the expectations of the Catholics of Ireland, and then to blast them. If the Catholics do not feel hurt at such conduct, they must be the basest of mankind; they might have borne the withholding of what they conceived themselves entitled to, but if they bore to be mocked, without feeling the insult, they must be indeed degraded." Would the Minister, he said, dare to oppose the unanimous will of the people of Ireland? If he did he must be infatuated; for in order to resist it, it would be necessary to station half a dozen of dragoons in every man's house. After drawing an animated and affecting picture of the disappointment of the wishes and hopes of Ireland, he concluded by making his motion for the re-commitment of the Money Bill to two months.
Mr. Tighe seconded the motion. Mr. Conolly said, that if the motion should come to a vote, he would support it.
The Chancellor of the Exchequer intimated, that the motion tended to disturb the public mind.
Sir Laurence Parsons proceeded, he said, on rumour alone. What would
happen he knew not; and he believed no man in the House did.
Mr. Mason and Mr. Osborne opposed the motion.
Mr. Brown spoke in favour of the motion—"Gentlemen (he said) state, that they do not hear the alarm: If they do not hear it now, they will hear it soon; if they cannot hear the whispers of Discontent, they will hear the voice of Discontent roar in thunder from shore to shore."
Mr. George Powney denied that any compact existed between the Government and the People, for any particular objects, under the present administration. He urged the delicacy of Earl Fitzwilliam's situation, but did not contradict the reports that had been so generally circulated and believed.
Lord Milton was against the motion.
Mr. Duquerry declared, that there never was a Parliament so grossly insulted as the present. If the Members had in their veins a drop of the blood of the Parliament of 1779, they would vote for the present question.
On the division, 24 supported the motion, and 146 opposed it.
Mr. Conolly observed, that on the question for the order of the day, he had a right to speak. He said he held in his hand those resolutions which he would have proposed before, but that he had been prevented, and which he thought would have saved this country from coming into the most arduous situation in which she was ever placed—that occasioned by the rejection of the motion of his Honorable Friend. They went, he said, to effect what seemed to be the wish of all, the continuation of the sitting of Parliament until the quiet of the country should be secured by the completion of those measures which he knew it to be the object of his Excellency's administration to accomplish. Of the principles and views of his Excellency he expressed his firm conviction, though at the same time he repeated that he was not in his confidence, nor ever would be, from the political connections of that Nobleman. After some other observations, highly honorable to his Excellency, and to the gentlemen who were in his confidence, he concluded by reading his resolutions, as part of his speech, in substance as follows:
 1st. That his Excellency by his public conduct since his arrival in this country, has deserved the thanks of the House, and the confidence of the people.  2d. That a prorogation of Parliament at this juncture, would be highly injurious to the true interests of this country.  3d. That these resolutions should be communicated to his Majesty. 
The order of the day being violently called for by Mr. Beresford,
Mr. D. B. Daly said, the first of these resolutions was such as no man in the House could be inclined to support; he hoped, therefore, the House would not, from any motive, prevent this resolution from being put, containing as it did a merited compliment to a Nobleman who had deserved so well of this country.
Mr. Beresford rose with much warmth and said, he was as incapable of resisting this resolution from any sinister motives, as the Right Honorable Gentleman, if not more so.
Mr. Daly said, that he had not had the Honorable Gentleman at all in his head; that his expression was general on a general subject, and therefore the Honorable Gentleman could take no offence at it.
Mr. Beresford remained silent.
Mr. Grattan said it was his intention to oppose the order of the day until the resolution of his Right Hon. Friend should be disposed of, and he was sure that there was scarcely a gentleman in that House who would not most heartily coincide in at least the first of these resolutions. It was not necessary that he who assented to the first most support the two others; they were different in matter and in substance, and not by any means such as to hang one upon another, tending to establish a great and final conclusion. The second of the resolutions went to ensure a continuance of the sitting of Parliament, which he was convinced was necessary for the public interest, whether it was to be secured by a short Money Bill, or by the resolution of his Right Honorable Friend. He, however, would wish, that this resolution were withdrawn for the present, until it should be known whether it was intended to prorogue Parliament after the business of the Crown should be completed, while the business of the country remained yet unfinished; a measure which, he would not hesitate to declare, whatever minister should advise, would be the enemy of his country! With respect to the first resolution, he
thought it was such as there could be no possible objection to, going, as it did, to bestow a well-deserved tribute of gratitude to a Nobleman, who, tho' the public expectation had been very highly raised at his arrival in this kingdom, had not disappointed that expectation—to all whose measures, and all whose dismissals, he gave his most hearty and cordial assent.
The Speaker informed him that it was a bill which was before the House, and he could take no resolutions till that was disposed of.
The question on the order of the day being now put, it was carried in the affirmative, with the single dissentient voice of Mr. Beresford.
The first of Mr. Conolly's resolutions being then put, it passed in the affirmative nem. con. The other resolutions, agreeable to Mr. Grattan's idea, were for the present withdrawn.
The orders of the day were now read and postponed.
From the LONDON GAZETTE. Horse Guards, March 10, 1795.
A DISPATCH, dated Osnaburg, February 18, 1795, of which the following is an extract, has been received by his royal highness the Duke of York, from the Hon. Lieutenant General Harcourt, and communicated by his royal highness to the right hon. Henry Dundas, one of his majesty's principal Secretaries of State.
I LOSE no time in acquainting your royal highness, that on the 24th inst. the enemy advanced in force upon the posts of Nienburg and Vahlburg, which were under the command of Lieut. Col. Strutt, and occupied by the Loyal Emigrants, and a detachment of Roban and Buille's corps. These troops, after a most gallant resistance, were forced, with the loss of about one hundred killed and wounded, to fall back upon Northweil, and the French occupied these two posts in our force. They also surprised a small picquet of Salm and Hompesch Hussars in Oldensaal, which they occupied, but were repulsed, when advancing on this side of that place. Lieut. Gen. Abercromby, who commands at Bentheim, &c. intended to attack and reoccupy the posts of Nienburg and Vahlburg. This measure was, however, rendered unnecessary, by the retreat of the French, who left all their posts on the 26th, directing their march towards Hardenberg, and Lieut. Col. Strutt immediately reoccupied them.
The last reports we have received, state that the enemy are precipitately marching their troops from Hardenberg and Groenengen towards Zwoll, and that they have even evacuated Coevorden, taking with them the ammunition and part of the cannon from that place.
It would be unjust in the extreme not to mention to your royal highness the particular gallantry and good conduct of the Loyal Emigrants; they have shown it in every instance, and particularly in this last, in which, I am sorry to say, they have had four officers and above fifty men killed and wounded. Major Mc. Mordie, and the other officers left with the sick, have been sent back and I am happy to add, that from their report, our sick met with the best treatment possible from the French.
Horse Guards, March 10, 1795.
A Dispatch, dated Embden, March 1, 1795, of which the following is an Extract, has been received by his royal highness the Duke of York, from Major Gen. A. Gordon, and communicated by his royal highness to the right hon. Henry Dundas, one of his majesty's principal Secretaries of State.
An opportunity for England offering this moment, and of which Lieut. Gen. Harcourt cannot avail himself, I have the honor to report, for the information of your royal highness, that the force posts, under the command of Major General Lord Cathcart, extending from Fort Bourbourg to Neieuw Sluys, were attacked and drove in, with some loss, in the morning of the 27th.
I am informed by his lordship, that he was retiring by his left, with his whole force, consisting of Major General Dundas's brigade of cavalry, the 6th brigade of infantry, with some detachments of foreign light troops, and intended recrossing the river Ems at Rhede and Noppen.
I also understand that the force posts of the left wing were drove in some days before, but I have not been able to learn any particulars.
NATIONAL CONVENTION.
6 Ventose, Tuesday, Feb. 24.
Haußmann gave an account of his mission to the armies of the North, and Sambre, and Meuse, to which he was sent on the 22d July.
The armies then occupied the line from Antwerp to Liege. Measures concerted by the Generals with the Representatives of the People, advanced them in a few days beyond the Meuse, and to the banks of the Rhine. It became necessary to take speedy steps for organizing the greater extent of country conquered by the Armies, and abandoned by the greater part of the members of government who fled with the enemy. It was our duty to turn to the advantage of the Republic, the abundant resource of those fine countries.
The forced circulation of assignats was established; the maximum of Lisle was put in force; corn and commodities necessary for the armies were furnished by requisition; the laws respecting horses for pleasure, and the levy of the twentieth of all other horses, were executed; the paintings of the greatest masters, articles of arts and sciences, very great quantities of metals, and many commodities of the first necessity, were sent into the interior of the Republic. The evacuation of the granaries and warehouses of Ostend alone, valued at ten millions; the moveable and immovable property of Governments and Emigrants were taken into the hands of the Nation.
Twenty-five millions of contributions in specie were imposed upon Belgium; the Municipalities were organized; eight Administrations of District and a central Administration at Brussels were created, as well as an Administration of Woods and Forests, and a Direction of Revenues and National Domains. All these
establishments are in full action. Committees of Superintendence had been formed in the principal cities, and Criminal Tribunals at Antwerp and Brussels; but since the 19th February, these Committees of Superintendence have been suppressed, and the two Tribunals are united into one, composed of 13 Members.
"I have the satisfaction to announce to you, that sentence of death has been pronounced only upon a few assassins and forgers of assignats; and that the trials have always been held according to the Penal Code of the Republic.
"For eight months our armies have subsisted on the produce of the conquered countries. At the time of my departure, the Military Magazines, the resources of the Country, and those which the United Provinces must procure us, assured the future subsistence of our armies. Different cities and countries of Belgium, however, appeared to be exhausted, and were calling for supplies; but the suppression of the Maximum and Requisitions, and the liberty of Commerce will procure them what they want.
"The contribution in specie at the time of my departure, had produced thirty-three millions, which added to three millions of extraordinary receipts made 36 millions in specie. 47 millions remaining due according to an order of the Committee of Public Safety of the 10th of February, may be paid half in assignats and half in specie.
"Strong remonstrances were made against these contributions. But I must observe, that according to our orders they cannot fall heavy upon the Abbeys, the Clergy, the Corporations, the Nobles, and the rich; that the Abbeys and the Corporations support the greater part; that in order to pay them, they melt their plate and sell part of their lands; that individuals known to be immensely rich support but a very small part of the burden; and finally, that the nation in the course of a year, might have received more than eighty millions of the impositions, dues, rents, &c. &c. had they been ordered to be paid in specie.
"It is however true, that there was some disproportion in the assessments of these contributions, which could not well be avoided; but we have obviated this inconvenience, by ordering the central administration to make a more equal assessment.
"The woods and forests offer great resources. The sales of wood for fuel are already begun; the French were invited to these sales, and we allowed the wood to be carried into the Republic free of all duty. These sales will soon produce more than ten millions; and persons are employed in marking and cutting down, to be conveyed to the ports and arsenals of the Republic, from 80 to 100,000 trees fit for ship-building, gun-carriages, and musket flocks. The sale of the moveable property of emigrants is begun, and will soon be in full activity.
"The direction of domains and national revenues is perfectly organized. The receipts amount already to 150,000 Livres per decade, and its annual product in Belgium will be at least fifty millions.
"The domains liable to be taken into the hands of the nation are estimated at three thousand millions.
"Here then is a new and considerable security for the assignats in circulation. The inhabitants of Belgium desire that you should convert it to the profit of the Republic. The union of Belgium with the French Republic is generally wished for. Even those who were not for the Republican system feel that the safety of their country depends upon this union. It is demanded of you by the Central Administration, and by all the other Administrations. The Deputies of all the Communities have made express applications to us to the same effect. I invite you to order the Committee of Public Safety to make a speedy report upon this subject.
"I have to demand of you an act of justice in favour of the inhabitants of the conquered countries. Nominate a commission of men pure, and informed, and active, who may revise all the requisitions, and examine the employment and the destination of all the provisions and merchandise that have been furnished. It is not to be doubted but that robberies and dilapidations to a considerable amount have been committed. Many articles have been delivered without good receipts from those who receive them. The persons who furnished those articles ought to be paid, and the dilapidators punished. We were making enquiries, and have already collected much information; but the immense pressure of business from all quarters, and the severe illness of our colleague, Briec, who was particularly charged with this business, prevented us from pursuing our enquiries as far as we could have wished.
"Having made no long stay in the country between the Meuse and the Rhine, and in Holland, I shall not detain you upon what passed there. Our Congress, on their return will inform you more at large. They will tell you how much the Representatives of the People urged the conquest of Holland, and how many difficulties were surmounted. In the mean time, I can state to you, that the country between the Meuse and the Rhine has been organized in the same manner as Belgium; and that measures have been taken for the subsistence and clothing of our brave brothers in arms, and the preservation of every thing that becomes national property.
"During the whole course of our mission we have had nothing in view but the interests of the Republic and the safety of our armies. The Poor have received relief; but we considered also that our Fellow Citizens having been exhausted for six years in the cause of Liberty while they

were daily supporting the greatest privations, it was just that the resources of a conquered Country be applied to the service of the Republic. Such was our plan, and such has been our conduct. We will not reply to those who have been disappointed in their speculations of private interest; but we shall always be ready to render an account of our conduct to the Convention, and every explanation of our operations that may be required. The health of our Colleague, Briez, is greatly impaired by long and arduous labor for fifteen days before I left Brussels he had been confined to his bed."—The Convention ordered this account to be inserted in the Bulletin, and referred to the Committee of Public Safety.
L O N D O N, March 11.
Letters from Copenhagen, of the 7th inst. mention, that a dreadful conflagration had taken place at Bergen, in Norway, on the 20th of January. The fire lasted eight hours, by which, besides a great number of stone houses, upwards of sixty private houses fell a prey to the flames. The damage is calculated to amount to at least 60,000 rix dollars. The fire would have caused more considerable destruction, had it not been for the zeal of the Commander of the French frigates in that port, who dispatched 600 sailors from his squadron to the assistance of the town, who were active in extinguishing the fire. They were next day offered presents of money, wine, and provisions from the inhabitants; they accepted of the latter, but refused money, which they desired to be distributed among the unfortunate citizens who suffered by the conflagration.
On the 22d Feb. Jean Debry stated to the National Convention of France, that Polier, a municipal officer of Avignon, had been assassinated, and that the assassins had been prevented from murdering himself, only by their not being able to find him. Rover said that these were the men organized by Maiguet. The assassins were ordered to be prosecuted, and the committees were directed to disarm all the Jacobins.
The Rhine and the Neckar have both overflowed their banks, in consequence of which, the lower part of the city of Dusseldorf has been inundated; and by the rising of the former river, the French have been obliged to abandon the fort of the Rhine.
March 9.
The Duke of Courland has repaired to Petersburg on an invitation from the Empress. It is presumed that Duchy will be comprehended in the new arrangements and divisions of Poland.
At Genoa, there is a person who bears the office of inspector of French assignats. At Amsterdam a publication is announced under the title of "Le Verificateur General des Assignats a ses Concitoyens; or clear and summary instructions for distinguishing the true assignats, from the false ones."
The ornamenting the head of a prime Minister, or even of a Prince, it appears that Mr. Pitt thinks worth only one guinea—whereas Lord Kenyon has not unfrequently estimated the adorning of a private Gentleman at ten thousand pounds.
POLAND.
The apprehension of persons concerned in the late disturbances is still continued. Kosciuszko is made a State prisoner in the fortress at Petersburg.
WARSAW, Feb. 4.
From all parts of Lithuania & Samogitia, Deputies were sent to St. Petersburg to thank the Empress for her protection, to whom she has given the most gracious assurances.
Our arsenal is quite emptied: all the manuscripts of the Library of the Republic are packed up, which together with the library itself and the records of the Republic, are removing from this town.
A sum of six hundred thousand roubles a year is said to have been fixed for the King of Poland.
The debts of the King of Poland are computed to amount to twenty millions of florins.
VIENNA, Feb. 4.
For some days past several extraordinary meetings of the council of state were held at which the English ambassador assisted at each time. Several couriers have been sent to England.
MENTZ, Feb. 11.
A sudden thaw has done vast damage in our neighborhood. All the islands on the Rhine have been inundated so much as to oblige the troops to chain and lash the guns to the batteries, and we fear many have perished. Two mills and a large building occupied as an inn, near the Munster Gate, have been entirely destroyed, but thank God, the waters begin to subside.
February 13.
Yesterday evening the Clubists who were prisoners at Koningstein were delivered up to the French at their advanced posts and our hostages were set at liberty in exchange for them.

General orders to the army of the West.
"Lazare Hoche, General in Chief announces to the army, with very great pleasure that the empire of reason has at length restored to our country her children and that the day is arrived on which the French are to make but one family."
"Charette and the principal chiefs of his army, in the name of the Vendéens and Caumartin, in the name of the party known by the denomination of Chouans,
have signed an Act by which they declare to the representatives of the French people, that their intentions in future are to live under the laws of the Republic. One and indivisible, and that they engage to deliver up their arms, ammunition and provisions—But while the citizens return into the bosom of their country, there are a banditti by profession, who knowing no party but that of murder and pillage, commit unheard of crimes, and seem to meditate new outrages."
"The moment is come when all good citizens ought to unite in destroying the common enemy.—To this effect the presents shall be notified to all the administrative bodies, and read as general orders for three successive days."
"The military chiefs will continue to repel aggressions by force to protect persons and property, to secure freedom of communication and conveyance, and will take particular care to receive and treat as brothers all the deluded men who shall come to surrender themselves."
"The Chief of the Etat-Major General is directed to transmit these orders to the Generals commanding divisions, by extraordinary couriers."

Montivilliers, Feb. 22, 1795.
"Perish forever tyrants, who exist not but by crimes! Glory to the Republic! The Chouans and the Vendéens are no more! Those who were so have abjured their errors."
"We have this moment received the official information that Charette, the chief of the rebels, his generals and his army, have laid down their arms and submitted to the laws of the Republic."
"We lose no time citizen, in transmitting this to you, and we invite you to communicate the good news to your fellow-citizens."

There is to be another Embassy to China—Sir George Stanton to be the Ambassador. The Embassy is expected to leave this country about the middle of May.
Letters from Embden by the last conveyance, mention, that two hundred and ten Emigrants perished in the Zuder Zee, by the ice giving way under them.
Barrere and his three Associates have published a justificatory memorial of very great length, which seems scarcely interesting enough to the English reader to be worthy of detail.
As a proof of the severity of the weather, about a month ago, the cold was so very intense, that a poor soldier of the 83d regiment, in one of the barracks at Plymouth, who was ill, laid with his legs uncovered during the night, in consequence of which they were both frost-bitten, so that both his legs have been obliged to be taken off a little below each knee. The man is nearly sixty years of age.
The address, which accompanied the medal which the nation lent to their beloved Minister of State, Count Bernstorff, run as follows:
To the man of the King and the Country, the Noble Bernstorff, who taught Europe, that true State policy constituted in justice, and peace maintained with a courageous constancy, are the greatest honors of a Government; this mark of gratitude is sent by his grateful fellow-citizens for the great blessings, which, for the benefit of mankind and the State, have been promoted for some years past. This day, so dear and important to both the kingdoms, was fixed upon by their faithful sons, in order to render deserved thanks to the most worthy of citizens.
On the part of the Danes and Norwegians who are attached to their King and Country. January 1, 1795.
A letter from Warsaw, written since the departure of the King, says, that notwithstanding the general amnesty granted by the Russian General, on the capitulation of that city, the number of arrests which are daily increasing, will naturally occasion surprise. This flagrant breach of faith, it is added, is now palliated by pretending that the amnesty was never intended to include the authors of the insurrection, still considered as rebels, but only such persons as were seduced by them. Among others apprehended by the late orders of the Empress and sent to Kiow, are the Counts Potocky, Kahowzewiczky, and Mostowsky, the Banker Rapuyty, and Kilinskiy, the famous shoemaker, with several members of the Council.—All the property of these prisoners is confiscated. In pursuance of the above measures, the names of persons actually executed, or hung in effigy by the insurgents, are carefully collecting by the Russian Governor General Buschew-
den, assisted by Commissioners, nominated among the Nobility and Burghers. A part of their charge is to examine the registers to discover all that were employed in the late Revolutionary Government, in the various departments; the extent of patriotic gifts, &c. Besides these regulations, the police, the post office, and the mint at Warsaw, are taken under the protection of the Russians.
PLYMOUTH, March 5.
This morning arrived the Fox frigate, Captain Malcolm. She was chased all last Saturday by four French ships of the line and five frigates off Cape Ortegal, but escaped by superior sailing. A ship of 84 guns was well up with her at nightfall, when the left off chase.
The 48th regiment marched this morning into Frankfort Place barracks.
LONDON.
THE FRENCH FLEET.
The following particulars are in one of the Paris papers about the French fleet; they are translated from a letter from Brest, dated the end of December.
"Three weeks ago the naval armament had orders to put to sea. Eight ships viz. one of 80 guns, and 7 of 74, were victualled for six months; the remainder were only victualled for 4 months. The fleet was composed of 65 ships of war, of which 36 were of the line, 15 frigates, and 14 sloops or cutters, the whole under the orders of the following Admirals;
 1. Villaret, vice-admiral, chief commander.  2. Bouvet, rear-admiral of the second squadron.  3. Nielly, rear-admiral of the third squadron.  4. Renaudin, chief commander of the division victualled for six months. (He was Captain of Le Vengeur, sunk the 1st of June, and prisoner in England.)  5. Trinquelon, commander of the light squadron.  Vauquier, rear-admiral commander of the rear guard. 
"The Representative Faures and Trehouard, were on board the admiral."
"The wind being fair for two days, the fleet set sail; but a very small part of it was out of the harbour, when the wind became contrary, and it was obliged to put back. Some days after the contrary was experienced. On the 24th of December, we had so violent and so sudden a hurricane from the north east, that the cables of many vessels gave way; others drove on their anchors, and fell aboard of one another, but without very material damage. The three decker the Republican of 110 guns having at once snapped her cables was driven on the rocks of the Goulet, with her stern on it. In that perilous situation she fled many exertions to let sail, but she could not wear, and the violence of the wind drove her on the rock of Mingant, in the middle of the Goulet; her whole stem was broke to pieces, and went down forward. In that situation her guns were thrown over board; and from 11 o'clock at night till four in the morning, when the boats came from the harbour, to her assistance, the crew, which consisted of one thousand two hundred men were crowded upon the stem, in the tops, on the yards and masts. The boats succeeded in saving all the crew, eighty men excepted; but the fine vessel was totally lost. The Captain and officers whose inexperience was the occasion of the disaster, have been sent to the castle, to undergo a naval court martial."
"The same gale of wind was productive of great damage in Cherbourg harbour to many trading vessels. Fifteen were cast on shore, and two sunk with men and cargoes. A great quantity of wrecks covered the coast."
"The following is the statement of the ships of war now building, and of the whole of the French navy:
At L'Orient, a ship of 80 guns, two of 74, and 4 frigates.
At Rochfort, a three decker, one of 80 one of 74, and some frigates.
Total, 11 vessels of the line, which being joined to the 35 now at sea, will form a naval force of 46 ships of the line, and the number of frigates is reckoned at 75.
Toulon will have 21 vessels of the line.
Total general, 67 sail of the line.
In the Brest fleet failed the 31st December, the Fougex, a 74 arrived from Rochfort, replaced the Republican. Admiral Vanhale, who commanded the Navy at Offend, and conveyed last year the fleet from America, commands a division.

SHIP-NEWS.
Arrived at this Port.
Ship Draper, Collins, Dublin. Sloop Eliza, Masterton, St. Lucia. Sloop Delia, McIntire, St. Martins. The Rebecca and Cheeseman is arrived at Bourdeaux.
The Perseverance, Bright, is cast on shore and bilged at do. and the cargo sold for the benefit of the underwriters.
Capt. McIntire, of the sloop Delia which arrived yesterday from St. Martins, and left there the 17th inst. has obligingly communicated to us the following information.
That St. Martins was taken possession of by the French and Dutch Patriots, on Sunday the 3d inst. the French flag flying at
Marygatt, and the Dutch and French at Great Bay.
Information had been received at St. Martins, that a British 64 and three frigates, had anchored in 'Statia Road, and demanded the Island in the name of the ci-devant Stadholder—which was refused by the Governor, who declared the Island should be delivered up to no nation, until he had received official information from Holland.
While the above-mentioned squadron were lying before 'Statia, information was received of the French having made a descent upon Tortola, and were in possession of the whole of the Island except one fort. In consequence of which the three frigates were sent off for its relief.
Capt. McIntire was also at St. Bartholomews, where an American vessel arrived direct from Martinico, which gave information of the arrival of a British fleet of five sail of the line, with near 6000 troops on board.
The French at St. Bartholomews, informed Capt. McIntire, that the Islands of St. Lucia, and St. Vincents, were in possession of the French, and wished him to proceed to either of those Islands with his cargo, with the positive assurance of a good price, and prompt payment.
BOSTON, April 22.
AN AMERICAN CAPTIVE, who, for ten years past, has been confined in "durance vile," at Algiers, arrived yesterday afternoon, in the brig Minerva, from Cadiz. He was the mate of a Schooner, belonging to Mr. William Roffler, of this town; and was ransomed by his friends, at the price of 3,000 dollars. We cordially congratulate him on his late return to his native country; and sincerely hope, that his recent companions in misery will speedily participate his happy emancipation.
PHILADELPHIA, April 30.
As the Members of the Democratic Society will dine in public To-morrow, a Correspondent remarks, that all occasion for strictures on their secrecy will in future be done away.
"Extract of a letter from a gentleman at Boston, to his friend in this town, dated April 24th, 1795."
"By a late arrival from France, there are accounts, that Seap and Provisions will not fetch within 25 per cent. of the cost in this country—that being the case, must I continue the purchase of Seap?"
"The Dutch exiles, in England, are preparing to embark for this asylum of all nations. An immense influx of industry and opulence will therefore soon increase the rivers of American commerce. The neutrality of the United States in the European contest, was a measure that does honour to the political foresight of our federal government. Already the resort of all nations, our country will speedily become the Emporium of the world. Unaffected by the jarring elements, which disturb the mother continent, AMERICA, peaceful, industrious, and independent, is actually, at this moment, receiving tribute from every commercial people on the globe. The Arts, the Muses, and the Sciences, affrighted "clangore tubarum" have commenced their flight for our happy shores; and without enthusiasm, we may anticipate the period, when the states of Columbia shall unite the commerce of Carthage, with the literature of Athens."
From the Independent Chronicle. April 23.
The following translation of a letter was handed to the Editors by a gentleman of veracity—(We have the original in our possession)—dated
Paris, 4th Pluviose, (23d January) 3d year of the Republic.
From the examination of the papers of Mr. Genet, and from information derived from some other particular sources, the Committee of Public Safety have been convinced that the Government of the United States were not friendly to our own; in consequence of which a Member of the Convention moved to take the matter into consideration, in order to demonstrate that fact, but it was over ruled on the ground of its being impolitic to agitate a subject of that nature, at that moment, and the order of the day being called for, was decreed accordingly.
"Health and Fraternity!"
An enlightened public, and our Republican brethren in the Southern States, will perceive the change of sentiments in this Commonwealth, by the state of our late election. MR. DEXTER is not chosen; and MR. VARNUM, an independent Democratic Republican, and of consequence a true genuine Federalist, (according to the real sense of the word) is elected to represent the Second Middle District.
[Boston Ind. Chron.]
SAYS A CORRESPONDENT If Printers would generally note the Paper from which their political extracts are taken, it would serve to render those extracts intelligible.
The inconsistency of the antifederal scribblers of the Day is become proverbial.—If it was necessary to the non-election of Mr. Dexter, that there should be a change in the sentiments of the People, then it follows of course, that
those antifederalists are also antirepublicans—for they never ceased one moment to insult the majority who elected Mr. Dexter, by abusing him while in office.

The Beacon House is to have two windows in the East and three windows in the West. The windows are to be hung with hinges, and each sash is to have eight panes of glass of eight by ten inches.
On the top of the wooden work of the Pyramid is to be a strong framed tier of joists, bedded therein, planked over with Oak plank, extending one foot beyond the sides of the Pyramid, thereby forming an eave which is to be finished by a cornice, the whole having a descent from the centre sufficient to throw off the water, and to be covered with copper. A complete and sufficient iron lantern in the Octagonal form is to rest thereon. The eight corner pieces or flanchions of which are to be well secured to the upright timbers of the Pyramid, or to the tier of joists, or both.
These flanchions are to be built in the lower eight feet, and sufficiently strong above.
The Lantern is to be six feet high, from the floor to the bottom of the dome or roof, and to have a dome or roof of three feet in height. The whole space between the posts to be occupied by the flanchions, which are to be moulded on the inside and struck solid. The flanchions are to be furnished with large panes of glass; a part of the sash on the fourth wall is to be hung with hinges for a door to go out on the platform. The iron ratters of the lantern are to be framed into an iron hoop, over which is to be a copper funnel; through which the smoke may pass into a large copper ventilator in the form of a man's head, capable of containing thirty gallons, this head to be turned by a large vane, so that the hole for venting the smoke may be always to leeward.
Eight dormant ventilators are to be fixed in the roof; a large curved air-pipe is to be passed through the floor.
There are to be five pairs of stairs to ascend to the lantern, the entrance to which is to be by a trap door covered with copper.
The building is to be furnished with two complete electrical conductors or rods with points. The floors are to be laid with plank. The entrance into the light house is to be well secured by a strong door hung upon hinges with a strong lock and latch complete.
Also a FRAME DWELLING HOUSE of one story, to be twenty eight feet in front and fifteen feet deep with a cellar under it, if it should be found practicable to make one. The cellar walls are to be fourteen inches thick, and seven feet high. The story of the house to be seven feet and one half in the clear, the roof to have a rectangular pitch. The floors to be laid in whole lengths nailed through.
The house is to be composed of two rooms of about thirteen feet and one half by fourteen feet and one half on the lower floor. The stack of chimneys is to be between the two sitting rooms and it is to have two plain fire places, one of them large for a kitchen, to which is to be joined an oven. There is to be an outer door in front between the two rooms and in the rear, in the kitchen. There are to be two windows in each of the rooms.
Each sash is to have twelve panes of glass eight by ten inches. Each window is to have a strong plain shutter with fastenings and hinges. The doors are to be hung and furnished completely. The ceiling and inner sides of the house are to be plastered with two coats. All the wood work outside is to be well painted, and the whole is to be finished in a plain and decent manner.
An OIL VAULT is to be built ten by twelve feet in the clear, arched over and covered with earth or sand, over which a shed is to be built. It is to be furnished with three strong cedar cisterns with covers, each capable of containing two hundred gallons.
The entrance to the vault is to be secured by a strong door.
The builder is to procure and pay for all materials, labor, workmanship, provisions, and other objects of cost, charge, or expense for a sum, to be proposed and agreed upon, and to execute the before described work, and every part thereof, in a good and workman-like manner.
Convenient payments or advances on security, will be made. April 27. m&th tf

The roads from the western and northern parts of the state of New York, together with a number of other public roads here meet, and lead to the noted ferry kept opposite the said town.
It contains upwards of one thousand acres, a great proportion of which is interval or low land, calculated both for grass or grain, producing great burthens annually; it may be laid into a number of valuable farms, affording convenient and handsome building grounds; there is now on the premises two very large and commodious dwelling houses with large Dutch barns, barracks, hovels, stables, cart and waggon house, carriage house, horse house, summer house, and other out-houses, on a commanding eminence near the bank of the river, affording a beautiful and extensive prospect of the river for several miles, the lowland, the town, and a fine lake of water, covering about thirty acres, well stored with all kinds of river fish, fowl, &c.
