A SUBSCRIPTION
Is opened for Printing the
Theological Writings
OF
Emanuel Swedenborg,
At Francis Bailey's Book Store, No. 116,
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 at 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. 1, 2, &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 no person by rational argument has been able to refute them, but instead there- of, invidious calumnies and groundless re- ports have been industriously propagated to discredit the honourable 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 those 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.

THE CORDWAINER.—No. 8
It is certainly a sublime and lofty saying of the Prophet, and beautifully expressive of the revolutions which it threatens, when in the name and person of Jehovah he declares, "I will wipe Jerusalem, as a man wipeth a dish, wiping it, and turning it upside down." This language seems to be adopted by the reformers of the political world at the present day. Europe is under the hands of the scourge; and America has killed the monster. Surely the foul stains of despotism cannot be too thoroughly cleansed. Would you bring to your table a vessel in which the deadly poison had been infused, without first "wiping," and scouring it with the utmost vigilance? Would you occupy a pestilential house without first taking a special care to remove every particle of infection? Away, with the emblems of tyranny, subservience and shadow.
Thus thought the watchful preservers of freedom in the regenerating city of New-York; and forbid, justice! that such noble zeal in the cause should pass without its eulogium: or be untold to late posterity. Monstrous absurdity! that a republican city, in a land of liberty—a city, too, which ever boasted the honor of containing a Democratic Society, should so long have fostered in its bosom the vipers of despotism, the badges of slavery; nurturing the honest republican passenger by the inscription on its walls of such names as "KING-STREET," "QUEEN-STREET," "CROWN-STREET" &c. These are now no more. Let it be told in France that the walls and streets of New-York, are now republican walls and streets; and I do hereby recommend it to citizen Robespierre, to move a decree in the Convention, "that the only city of New-York has deserved well of its country."
With all due deference to the profound wisdom of the MOUNTAIN and its disciples, one article of reform seems to have escaped their vigilance, and that of an able (who would have thought it? Suame to the guillotine!) worn openly about upon uncropped heads. It is a notorious fact that the ornamental covering of the head, called a Hat, consists of a Rim and a Crown! Think of that, I pray you.—A proud, prominent ornament, called a Crown—rank despotism!—riding in triumph upon the heads of republicans in these days of illumination! Is it consistent with the boasted equality of your system, O ye reformers! that while some are deprived of their heads, merely because they have once worn crowns, others should be suffered to carry about their heads with crowns upon them? Does not this deserve the attention of the Democratic Society? Have ye thought of this, Frenchmen?
But perhaps I am too fast; and I already beg pardon of Citizen Robespierre.—What signifies pruning the branches, when the trunk is felled? "The ax is laid at root of the tree."—The fashion of wearing hats cannot certainly survive long in France, according to present appearances; since in a few years it will probably become as unfashionable—as unusum —to be seen wearing a head on ones shoulders, as it would be now deemed for a city-lady to be seen at the play or a ball, with a Leghorn of the size of eighty nine.

FRANCE.
NATIONAL CONVENTION, 10th Thermidor, Monday, July 28, 7 in the evening.
Addresses from Versailles and various other places were presented, congratulating the Convention on the energy displayed against the conspirators, and stating that the people everywhere exclaimed with one voice, "Long live the Republic, perish the traitors and the tyrants."
Andre Dumont.—"The light of virtue now dispels the shades of guilt. You will hear with indignation that Robespierre the younger, when Commissioner with the army of Italy, enriched himself, at the expence of the soldiers, by the most infamous brokerage. Haller, the Banker, was his agent; Lafont of Toulouse, a justice of the peace, came to Paris to denounce his crimes, and was shut up in a dungeon by the Usurper for five months. My brother was his companion for 56 days. I move that Lafont be enlarged, that he may inform the Committee of General Safety of the conduct of Robespierre the younger and his sister, who, when she was with the army, insisted upon being called Madame , and associated with none but Aristocrats."—Ordered.
Lecointre of Versailles moved, That the Popular Commissions appointed to try the prisoners should be revived by the Committees of Public and General Safety.
Thibaut moved, That the composition of the Revolutionary Tribunal, which had been the work of Robespierre and Couthon, should be also revived.
Tallien.—"This is one of the most glorious days for liberty. The heads of
the conspirators have fallen on the scaffold.—(Loud applause.) The Republic triumphs, and the same blow shakes the thrones of all the tyrants in the world. This example must convince them, if they still have any doubts, that the French people will never be governed by a master.—(New applause.) Let us go and mix with our citizens, let us go and share the common joy. The day, on which a tyrant dies, is a holiday for fraternity. I move that all propositions be referred to the two Committees, and that the sitting be suspended till six to-morrow morning.
Decreed amid loud applause and shouts of joy—It was then nine at night.
12th Thermidor, Wednesday, July 30. Goupilleau of Montaigne.—"All the citizens of Paris deserve well of their country in the late contest, but there are particular instances that deserve to be noticed. The Commandant of the Battalion of Bon Courcelle, being informed that Hanriot had taken his corps to the commune, flew thither, harangued his brothers in arms, and brought them back to the Convention with their cannon. To this first instance of obedience to the law was owing the submission of a great part of the armed force misled by Hanriot."—(Honorable mention.)
A number of addresses of congratulation were received.
Decreed, that all public officers give an account where they were on the night of the 27th.
Lacoste, in the name of the Committee of General Safety.—"From the information we have received, it appears that a great number of public officers were engaged in the rebellion of the Commune. I move that they be all outlawed against whom we have proofs of guilt. Part of the Judges and Jurors of the Revolutionary Tribunal were devoted to Robespierre. I move that the Tribunal be replaced by a Provisional Commission."
Thuriot.—"Robespierre knew of what importance it was to him to have the jurors of the Revolutionary Tribunal at his devotion, and filled them with his creatures; and, when his Holiness (for so he was called by his partisans) when this Catholic King had marked an individual, the Jury found him guilty, and the Judges pronounced sentence. I move that in future the jurors be taken from all the Departments of the Republic, and not elected from among hypocritical patriots, like the little man who wanted to be so great that he would have dethroned the Eternal, and taken his place if he could!"
A member stated that the Popular Commissions established at Lyons and Nîmes were the creatures of Robespierre; and that to sacrifice the patriots was the order of the day in the south of France.
Tureau.—"It is the more necessary to suspend the operations of the Revolutionary Tribunal, that Cataline Robespierre marked the lists that were presented to him by the Jury."
After some debate, the suspension of the Revolutionary Tribunal was decreed; but afterwards, on the representation of Billaud Varennes, that some of the accomplices of Robespierre were then before the Tribunal, the suspension was revoked, till the Committee of Public Safety should report upon this subject.
Barras.—"I come to inform the Convention of the general felicity. To the vigorous attitude that you have taken are owing the general tranquility and the general joy. Measures are taken to prevent the accomplices of the rebels from escaping. The prisons are well guarded. The Committee of Public Safety will soon make a report."
At five in the afternoon the sitting was suspended.
Seven in the Evening.
A report was received from the Committee of Legislation, on several appeals against the judgments of the ordinary Tribunals.
A deputation from the Jacobins who had remained faithful to the cause of the people and the Convention, in their several Sections, while instruments of Robespierre filled the Club, were admitted to the bar, and presented an address.
The President, in his answer, recapitulated the services which the Jacobins had rendered to their country—services which would never be forgotten while the memory of the French Revolution remained.
Barrere, in the name of the committee of Public Safety. "I come to declare that the conspiracy has not altered the social organization for a moment; that this partial commotion has left the Government entire with respect to all political administrative and revolutionary operations, both at home and abroad."
The conspirators never did anything towards the organization or the action of government. It is a fact of which too many citizens are ignorant, that part of their reputation for patriotism, they despised the man of business, obtained the obscure functions of labor and carried the aristocracy to such a pitch as to think themselves above serving their country.
St. Just and Robespierre absented themselves from the constant and daily business by which a state is governed, without seeing it so. They found them vulgar enough to attempt saving our country in detail. For themselves they reserved the pride and luxury of governing. They attended only to a part of the general police, especially organized by themselves and for themselves. The Revolutionary Government, and the executive commission, were organized contrary to their wishes; and when they saw that we were determined to put the Republican Government into form, all the part they took in it was to fill the commissions with as many of their creatures as they could put in.
Thus while we were honestly composing Executive Commissions, St. Just and Robespierre, respecting the choice of persons made by you, imposed upon us persons whom they intended to make the instruments of their abominable plan. The bristlines trusted to their power in the Departments. Hanriot had made oath to the new triumvirate, that he would answer with his life for the success of the plan. The failure of his promise engaged his accomplices. Collinet, one of the Judges of the Revolutionary Tribunal, after fiercely reproaching him with having ruined them all, threw Hanriot out of one of the windows of the Commune. On the promotion of Dumas the Committee of Execution at the Commune, of which Simon was President, had ordered that the Gendarmerie should be shot, the Revolutionary Tribunal, and a certain number of the Convention. The Republic was parcelled out among the triumvirate and the Commune. St. Just was to go with full powers to the army of the North; Couthon and Robespierre the younger to the armies of the South; Robespierre the elder was to reign at Paris. A vast number of counter-revolutionary papers were circulated in the Departments. Of all these facts we have proofs. The following is the copy of a letter sent to one of the Sections of Paris:
Commune of Paris—the Committee of Execution to the Revolutionary Committee of the Section of Pikes, 9th Thermidor.
Courage, patriots of the Section of Pikes, liberty triumphs already those whom their arms rendered formidable to traitors are liberated. The people everywhere show themselves worthy of their character. The point of union is at the Commune. The brave Hanriot executes the orders of the Committee of Execution, which is created to save the country.
(Signed) Legrand, Louvet, Payan, Leroux.
"The Committee of Public Safety have taken all the measures which the circumstances require. Seventeen couriers are dispatched to the armies; proclamations are sent to the representatives of the people on the frontiers, and in the departments; and the antidote to so many calumnies will arrive almost as soon as the poison. No part of the public administration suffers by these events. There is no ground for uneasiness on this head. We have nothing to desire but consistency of public measures, and that the operations of the Convention, and the necessities of government, correspond. The Committee will soon make a general report. But be on your guard against the fatal moderation, which, while it speaks only of peace and clemency, avails itself of every circumstance. Let aristocracy know, that in this temple there are only steady and avenging laws. Let true patriotism know that they are in its temple, its asylum, and its ministers. Let the people always find here equality in laws, and liberty in the means. Let the revolutionary movement not stop its purifying course, and let the Convention continue to make traitors and kings tremble, conspirators at home, and despotic governments abroad."
"The conspirators had not forgotten the armies in their plan. The necessary secrecy does not allow us to enter into particulars upon this point at present, but we shall soon lay the whole before you. I shall mention only one circumstance, Robespierre, in his seditious speech, said, that the army of the north was acting as in the time of Dumourier. Mark whence the imputation proceeded. The Committee had ordered a vigorous pursuit of the foreign hordes on all our frontiers, especially on the north, where are the most cruel enemies of France, the English and the Austrians. Richard and Choudieu seconded with all their vigor the measures of the Committee. Robespierre repeatedly attacked Richard and Choudieu in the committee, and pretended to suspend their zeal, while it was leading our troops to victory."
Letters from the army of the north near Antwerp inform us that secret
agents from Paris had been busy among our victorious legions. They even announced that a truce had been signed between us and our enemies—A truce between banditti and royalists! A truce between assassins and republicans! and yet several corps were deceived and suspended their operations for 3 days. The orders of the committee soon restored activity and victory. I have to announce to you the new successes amid these momentary interruptions. One would say, that the Genius of Liberty had resolved to crown your late revolutionary labours by decorating them with new advantages. Thus while conspirators against the republic were descending to the grave by the road of infamy, the army of the north was scaling Port Lillo, and could not overtake the fugitive English who were covering their defeat by inundations, and making the very country curse their presence, for which they pretend they have taken up arms.
PRUSSIAN CAMP, at WOLA, near WARSAW July 30.
The heavy artillery being at length arrived, the whole army moved from the camp of Opalin on the evening of the 25th, and on the 26th arrived at the village of Wola. The headquarters are at a small advanced work. The left wing, which extended to the wood of Bilani, is drawn nearer to the centre; and the Russians are still on the right wing. On the 27th, and the two following days, batteries were erected against the enemy's works, and according to all appearances, the attack on their entrenchments will be made to-morrow. Major Gen. Schwerin has the command of a Cordon, which will be drawn behind Bzura, to cover Lowicz, Skerniewicz and Rawa, where are our hospitals and magazines.
LONDON, August 16.
Their Noble and High Mightinesses have just published an Edict, by which a voluntary loan is opened, without prejudice to those of the 10th of January 1793, and the 28th of February 1794, for a sum as yet undetermined but which will be fixed as soon as it shall amount to a sufficient sum. It is left to the choice of all such as may entertain a sentiment of duty to their country, to furnish their subscriptions either in species or in wrought gold and silver. They are to receive the customary bonds, with an interest of five per cent, subject to no deduction whatever; and these bonds are to be bought up two years after the peace.
Their Noble and High Mightinesses have besides ordered, that all the regents and officers, by way of furnishing a good example to the inhabitants, shall pay into the respective offices, of their jurisdictions, the sum at which their employments are charged in the list of 1727, concerning charges.
Barbarity of the French towards an English Prisoner.
[Extract of a letter from the British Consul at Hamburg.]
"The subject of this letter is, a poor English soldier who has been taken prisoner by the French, whom they have used in a most shocking and cruel manner, by cutting out his tongue, cutting off his hair, and disabling him from writing, by wounding him in his right hand. After an infinite deal of pains, we have learned the following particulars from him, by laying the alphabet before him. From them it appears, that his name is Dick; that he is a soldier belonging to the 6th regiment, in which his regiment one of his brothers was also a soldier, but fell by his side in the field of honor; that at present, one of his brothers lives in London, who is a barber and hair dresser."
"Certified at Hamburg, July 11th, 1794."
"J. JOHANNS, Post-Master."
"It appears by the above certificate, that this unfortunate man was a British soldier, made prisoner by the French, who, in a most inhuman manner, cut out his tongue. He has been forwarded hither by his Majesty's Hanoverian post-masters, without expence."
"On his last stage to Hamburg, the post waggons were overturned, and he received a hurt in his leg, for which he has had assistance here. I now send him to London, where he has given me to understand he has a brother a hair dresser, and can find his residence."
"W. HANBURY."

Hamburg, July 11.
The Arethusa frigate, Sir E. Pellew, arrived at Falmouth on the 14th inst. spoke an American vessel on the 15th,
which left Brest on the 12th, who informed him that the King George Packet L'Esperance, and another ship of war, with a cutter, had been sent in there by their cruising frigates; and that the King George Packet was taken off Scilly: two squadrons of 8 frigates and 5 corvettes each, were to sail from Brest on the 13th inst. and that 25 sail of the line were lying in Brest water at that time.
The Sybille frigate, which has been taken in the Mediterranean by the R. Navy Man of War, is the largest of that rate ever seen in Europe; she was originally designed for a two-decker of 68 guns, but being in want of a cruiser she was finished at Toulon for a frigate. She had not, however, had much success.
A patent is ordered to be made out to create the Right Hon. Admiral Lord Hood a British Peer.

UNITED STATES.
NEW-YORK, October 13.
[What will our American Jacobins say now! Their leaders are dead—their excellent Model in France is abolished—for what!—their tyranny—their despotism—their intrigues for the Supreme power. Look to that, ye Democrats!—ye guardians of other people's persons rights and property. But many of you are honest men and good citizens. When you awake from your delusion, you will detect your founders and return from the dark sequestered intrigues of nightly cabals, to the manly friendship and fraternity of equal rights.]
Remarks on the late Intelligence from France.
In the month of March last, when it was hardly safe to speak or predict truth respecting France, we published the following paragraphs.
"Sylla crushed his enemies, with the blood of nearly one hundred thousand citizens and soldiers; and after he had thus delivered Rome from tyrants, as he pretended, he ordered the people to create him perpetual Dictator. He treated the people, just as all popular leaders treat them; first courting them with the cry of liberty, making them the instruments of their own elevation; then trampling on them as slaves. Just so in England, Cromwell destroyed the tyranny of Charles I. with the cant of liberty and religion, then saddled the English with his own despotic power. Just so Danton and Barrere are now Dictators in France, without the name, but with all the powers; and who will succeed them. God only knows."
"Anarchy, disorders and proscriptions will afflict France for some years; and probably the present Convention and their successors will be buried in the ruins of the present constitution of government."
"In a few years, a change will take place in France, and it is an equal chance that the Jacobins will be denounced as traitors, by a majority of the nation."
"The seeds of faction, that enemy of government and freedom, are sown thick in the present constitution of France. The Executive Council, to be composed of twenty members, will be a hot bed party, and spirit is violent, malignant and tyrannical. The French could not have fallen upon a more effectual expedient to create and perpetuate faction, with its train of fatal evils, than to commit the execution of the laws to

a number of hands; for faction is death to liberty." See a pamphlet entitled the Revolution in France, considered in its progress and effects. A great number of similar predictions have appeared in this paper, in defiance of democratic scorn and censure; and we shall not fail to remind our democratic readers occasionally of any fulfilment of our predictions.
About the time the foregoing remarks were published, Hebert and Danton, with their friends were guillotined. When the news reached America, our democrats were confounded and for a moment stood agast! What Danton, the bon patriot, the firm staunch republican, turned traitor! Incredible! But after humming and shrugging shoulders a day or two, the democrats agreed to his fate, and from extravagant praise of Danton, their tone was changed into execrations! Yes! it must be so—Danton was a traitor—he had grown amazingly rich by the revolution—British gold! Ah, that is the cause—Pitt is at the bottom of it!
We aristocrats replied, Not at all! There is no proof of bribery! The death of Danton is the work of detestable faction. A little knowledge of human nature and of history will explain this business, and will warrant us in predicting that Robespierre will soon share the same fate.
No, no, said the Democrats, with profound Coffee House wisdom; Robespierre is a very different man—he is poor—he is a true patriot—a real Sans Culotte—a found republican—he is honest, there is no doubt of it."
This ditty in praise of Robespierre has rung in our ears full six weeks; when lo! we learn that Robespierre is denounced as a traitor to liberty—he is aiming at Dictatorship!—he and all his party are arrested and sent full speed to the guillotine after Brissot. Hebert and Danton! there is an end of him and his republicanism.
And now what will our long headed Jacobins say? Is the business done? Where will they rest their hopes now? Is Tallien, Billard Varenes, or Boudon a true patriot—a found—firm—incorruptible Sans Culotte? Where is he? We pause for an answer and on some future Sunday evening, when our mighty pure patriots are clean-shaved we shall expect to see at the coffee house collections of wisdom, which will enlighten us Aristocrats—into more Democratic blunders and absurdities!
One thing however our Jacobins will not learn—which is, that men who make the greatest pretensions to virtue, or patriotism, always have the least of it; and that noisy patriots who pay great court to the people, in all countries and under every form of Government have eventually proved to be tyrants at heart. The really good man says little of his piety—the really tried patriots, the Washingtons, the La Fayette of all countries, have never made great boasts of their patriotism. But Democrats are deaf to hints!

Extract of a letter from Hamburg dated August 11th 1794.
The French have conquered Brabant and Flanders—they are now attacking Holland with a great army—the panic is great in that Country, and our market receives daily supplies of goods from thence. Trade is quite at a stand there, and some of our friends at Amsterdam and Rotterdam have begun to send forward to us the property that arrives to their address—thus our market has become the Aylum and in a manner the staple of the north.
Extract of a letter from a gentleman of respectability at Baltimore, dated Oct. 12.
"I think your citizens acted properly in taking precautions to prevent the yellow fever being carried from this place—however I now hope there is but little if any danger.
In my opinion you need not be under any apprehension of danger from the land stages, or persons on horseback, or in their own carriages, for the disorder has been principally confined to poor people on the Point, who do not travel in that way; the danger is from persons in the water stages, who may have bedding, &c. from houses where persons have died. This summer there has been a constant vendue at our market, of old clothing, &c. which there is now reason to believe were brought from Philadelphia, and had belonged to persons who died of the disorder last year. I do not mean to intimate that the disorder was brought among us in that way, for I believe it was imported directly from St. Domingo, but to guard you against the like practice.
Our town is now very healthy, and indeed has been so, that it has been sick—some have died of the fever, but in most cases if not all, it can readily be ascertained with certainty that they caught the disorder at the Point; it did not spread, at least not so as to create much alarm, and very few persons have removed. The last of the hot weather people were getting alarmed, but the immediate change of weather quieted their apprehensions.—At the Point the disorder I believe raged for a time with as much violence as it did last year in Philadelphia, but then it was on a small scale in comparison. The Point being separated from town was fortunate—When I speak of the town I do not include one of the wharves where there were some traces of the disorder, and some died.
Since the cold weather for a fortnight past the disorder has greatly decreased, even on the Point. Mr. Wignell yesterday told me that Doctor Brown had called on him to inform him that he might with propriety open the Theatre, which will take place to-morrow.
Married on Saturday morning last by Bishop Asbury, Mr. Cornelius Comegys Merchant, to Miss Kitty Baker, daughter of Mr. Jacob Baker merchant, all of this city.
Died, Feb. 10th 1794, in Newberry County, S. Carolina, Ninety-Six District, a Mr. Robert Kennedy, a young gentleman, about 28 years old, who was travelling towards Georgia,—said his family (or father) lived near Philadelphia. He wished it put in a Philadelphia Gazette.

VIENNA, August 2.
From Turin we learn very bad news relative to our armies in Piedmont. The French, who constantly receive supplies of men and artillery, by the way of Nice, are in such force as is truly alarming. They are determined to get possession of Coni, they have taken 200 men and two officers prisoners, whom they found asleep. They are said to exceed sixty thousand men in point of number, while the Piedmontese do not amount to 30,000.
The Crusaders, who marched under the standard of the Holy Virgin, have felt their zeal considerably cooled, ever since six hundred of them were swept away by grape-shot.
In Sardinia affairs wear but a melancholy aspect, as the inhabitants continue hostile to the Piedmontese Government. This circumstance has induced his Majesty to dismiss Count de Granero, the principal minister for the affairs of Sardinia; several others will, it is thought, participate in his disgrace.
The last letters from Turin state, that three columns of French, each consisting of 6000 men, have marched towards the town of Dalmaz, which it was feared, had fallen into their hands.
Several suspected persons have been arrested in this city, and it is pretended that the Jacobins intended to bring about a revolution last Sunday, while the inhabitants were assembled to view the fire works in the Prater. A Scotch Benedictine, said to be one of their accomplices, has hanged himself.
TURIN, July 24.
A conspiracy has been discovered against the King of Sardinia, and the royal family, and to overturn the government. An immense number of persons have been taken, and already Capt. Stephanis, Count Joseph Cartel, and Junodi, have been executed upon the bastion of the citadel of Turin, their bodies burnt, and their ashes scattered in the air. The trial still continues of their accomplices. The levy in mass of the Piedmontese peasantry, has been every where unfortunate; the French have beat them on all sides.
The Republicans are still in the same posts, but are receiving hourly reinforcements in men and heavy artillery, so that they dread at Turin some approaching attack.
WARSAW, July 13.
Kosciusko has entered this city to restrain the disorders of the populace, with a considerable body of his troops. So licentious and extravagant has been the popular conduct, that if it be not soon suppressed, it must shake the Revolution to its foundations. The nation in general is determined at all hazards, to support the new system.
The first measure of the general, was to arrest 1200 persons who were idle, and therefore to be dreaded—they are now about to proceed against such among them as were authors or abettors of the dreadful calamities of June 28, wherein Prince Mysalski and Prince Czertwinski, with six others, fell victims to their fury.
A terrible example will be made of the convicted; the remainder will be employed upon the popular works, or sent to the hospitals until they are capable of occupation.
The residue of Kosciusko's army is in the environs of the capital, commanded by General Mokranowski. The commander in chief, before he entered Warsaw, defeated a corps of Russians, under the command of General Derfeld. It was in consequence of this success entirely, that Kosciusko was able to enter the capital.
By the way of Lithuania, we learn, that the insurgents of Courland, under the command of Michack, have made themselves masters of the port and city of Libau, in the Baltic. This intelligence has quite entirely intoxicated the people with joy, and nothing is talked of but the vigorous measures to be taken against the enemies of our independence.
LONDON, August 13.
The following persons who were guillotined at Paris on the day after the execution of Robespierre, N. Magon de la Balue and his family viz. Mad. la Maréchale de Noailles; Mad. la Duchesse d'Ayen her daughter in law; Mad. la Vicomtesse de Noailles, wife of the officer of that name who is well known at London and is at present settled in America. M. le Marquis de Talara, a Cordon Bleu, & Premier Maître d'hôtel du roi; Mad. la Marquise de Tourzel Gouvernante des Enfans de France and her three daughters; Mad. la Duchesse de Charost; Mademoiselle Paulina Tourzel; and M. de Tourzel.
TALLEN,
Now leader of the French Convention, is about 32 years of age, full of fire and energy. His head is lofty and commanding. He is a Girondin, or to speak stricter a Muscadin, in all the extent of that term. He is fond of women, of the table, play, and all amusements. Particularly careful of his person, he spends much time at his toilet. He lives publicly with Madame De Fontenai, daughter of the famous Cabarrus, of Spain. She is his Egeria, and as much as possible loitens the rigor of his Republican character. When he was deputy commissary at Bordeaux, he engaged him to conduct himself with humanity, and saved many from the fury of his associates. Tallien, however, voted for the death of the king.
Accounts were received at Lloyd's this morning of the arrival at St. Malo, of nine cartel ships with French prisoners from Barbadoes, Martinique, and Guadalupe.
The names of the ships are
The Six Brothers, Stewart, Sally, Ferguson, London, Kewan, William, Burnett, Betsy, Brown, Benjamin and Elizabeth, Jones, Britannia, Gowland, Providence, Gardner, Atlanta, Emery.
The French prisoners as soon as they arrived at St. Malo were put into prison.
The Cadiz packet, from Dublin to Cadiz has been taken and carried into Rochfort.
In the proceedings of the Convention against Robespierre, the name of the abbe Seyes is not once mentioned, nor the names of Carnot and Lindet, who are members of the Committee of Public Safety, but it is highly probable, that, while others stood forth to act, those three rode in the whirlwind and directed the storm.

Select Stories,
For the instruction and amusement of Towns. Adapted to the use of Schools.
From the French of M. Berquin.
Extract from the Preface.
"To the honor of Mr. Berquin's taste, it may be said, that he has united simple elegance with interesting variety, but rigidly separated both from the slightest approach of whatever is vulgar or puerile: a merit much more easily praised than imitated. The art of amusing children, whilst at the same time the Infant Genius is raised and the Heart mended, appears from his works to be no contemptible effort of the mind. Wherever, therefore, the utility of such an undertaking is acknowledged, the reputation of Mr. Berquin must ever be held in deserved esteem."
"Happily such is the agreeable versatility of Mr. Berquin's style and genius, that it would be difficult to pronounce in what department he excels: whether in the lively or the pathetic; the simple language of narrative, or the animated points of conversation: whether in shrewd remarks upon private life, or in florid description of the beauties of nature."
"Pieces of every various excellence that is to be found in the writings of Mr. Berquin, compose the following volume, which, it is hoped, will be thought a valuable substitute (where such may be preferred) to the larger and more extensive works of the same author."
At No. 24, north Third Street, may also be had the following.

Twenty Dollars Reward.
MY Saddle Mare was stolen from Wye Mill, Talbot County, Maryland, on the night of the 30th of August last. She is black, and supposed to be ten or twelve years old, under fourteen hands high, compact and handsome, branded with the letter O, on the left shoulder, a handsome star on her forehead, a large full eye, the neckerchief fallen, a flat buttock, her fore feet turn in, and one of them white; she racks, trots and canters, has good spirits, and goes very pleasantly. If taken up out of the state, I will give the above reward of twenty dollars and all reasonable charges, if within the state and thirty miles from Wye Mill, eight dollars and reasonable charges, and if a shorter distance in proportion, to any person who will deliver her to the Subscriber at the mill.

FOR SALE,
the following
Tracts of Land,
in Virginia.
ONE tract in Frederick county, containing 8756 acres, being part of that whereon col. Thomas Bryan Martin now resides, known by the name of Greenway court, about 12 miles from Winchester and 5 from Newtown. For the convenience of purchasers, it will be divided into parcels of various dimensions from 200 to 600 acres, which may be viewed by application to col. R. K. Meade, living near the premises. The greater part is very fertile and well timbered.
Another tract in the same county on Passage creek, containing 220 acres, and adjoining Jacob Levingoods.
Another tract in Hampshire county, containing by patent, 699 acres, called Slim Bottom, situate on both sides of the South Branch and within two miles of the mouth of it, and is supposed to have a good mill seat.
Another tract in Hampshire county on New Creek and Kettle-Lick, containing 501 acres.
Another tract in Prince William county, called Leesylvania, containing upwards of 2000 acres, lying upon Potomack river, about 23 miles below Alexandria, and 28 below the City of Washington, comprehending Free Stone Point, which appears to be a quarry of free-stone, covering about 50 acres and adjoining the river, where vessels of 200 tons conveniently harbour. On another part of this tract it is supposed there is a quarry of slate, convenient to water carriage. Upwards of two thirds are in woods. Mr. Enoch S. Lane, living on the premises, will show this tract.
Another tract, in Fairfax county, called Springfield, containing 2040 1-2 acres, about 13 miles from Alexandria and 10 from Washington; abounds with fine springs and meadow ground, and may be seen by applying to Mr. John Wood, living on part of it.
Another tract in Fairfax county, containing 392 acres, on Turkey-cock Run, about 6 miles from Alexandria.
Another tract in Fairfax county, containing about 176 acres, adjoining Mr. Waton's seat, about four miles from Alexandria.
Another tract, in Fairfax county, containing 243 acres, near Occoquan, joining Mr. Edward Washington's.
Another tract, in Fairfax county, containing 80 acres or thereabout, within a mile of Pohick Landing, and within five miles of Mount Vernon, lies level, and is well timbered.
An undivided moiety in another tract, containing about 281 acres, in Fairfax county, about 5 miles from Washington, & 9 from Alexandria, where J. Robinson formerly lived.
Another parcel of land, within a mile of Alexandria, containing about 24 acres, and to be sold in acre or half-acre lots.
Also, sundry unimproved lots of various sizes, in different parts of the town of Alexandria.
To describe the premises more particularly is deemed unnecessary, as it is expected every person will examine and view whatever part he shall be inclined to buy. My only object being to raise a certain sum of money, by selling so many or such parts of the aforesaid tracts of land and lots as shall be necessary for that purpose, one half of the purchase money must be paid at the time of contract, and the other within a year from the first day of August next, and at the time of delivering possession or executing a legal conveyance. The lands remaining unsold, except the tract in Prince William, after raising a limited sum, will be divided into tenements, and leased for a term of years. From the 12th day of October next, till the 15th of December, I shall be in the city of Richmond, and after that time I shall remain at home, in Alexandria, at which places, or elsewhere, I shall be prepared to detail particulars, and to enter into contracts. Alexandria, July 28
