well assured that these pages will not be acceptable to the zealous 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.

Foreign Intelligence.
From Paris papers, by the America.
AMSTERDAM, Jan. 11.
We just now receive the intelligence that the fortress of Nieuwerfluyts has surrendered to the French without the least resistance. Their conduct at Utrecht has been exemplary. The rumour has spread here that they have sent a strong column in the country of Beuschem, 12 leagues from Munster, which would have completely surrounded the English army, and forced them to surrender prisoners of war.
Jan. 13. In the Evening. Yesterday we learnt that the Vanguard of the French having approached the suburbs, were visited by a deputation from the regency. They afterwards entered the city, where an immense crowd assembled before the Hotel of the Arms of Emden. The news of the deliverance of Utrecht was received with universal applause, and all expressed their most ardent desire of breaking their fetters—Consequently, this morning, the 13th, the people put themselves in motion, and assembled before the above mentioned hotel, each with a national cockade in his hat.—At two in the afternoon, there was a deputation at the Bourgue-master's. It returned at four o'clock. Shortly after the cries of Loug live the Republic were every where heard.
Jan. 19.
At eight in the morning, all the bells began to ring and patriotic airs were sung. Two tri-colored flags were hoisted on the State House. At 11 the tree of liberty crowned with a hat, was planted on the dam. Several incarcerated patriots were released by the people, and conducted in carriages, with great solemnity, to the State House.
Jan. 25.
The French army is well received in every part of the city. A strict discipline is observed. It is pleasing to hear the Dutch youth singing Ca ira thro' the streets. When the martial music strikes up the air, they all join in the chorus. The National Cockade has caused that of Orange totally to disappear.
BRUXELLES, JAN. 29.
Yesterday two representatives of the people arrived here from Amsterdam:—they are going to Paris. Every where the soldiers of the Stadtholder lay down their arms. The English army is invisible: it is presumed that part are withdrawing towards Hanover, and that the remainder must be near Brielle and Helvoetsluyts, if they have found means of embarking.
We are credibly informed that several magazines and two hundred English vessels, in the Zuyder-sea, are in the power of the Republicans.
The capitulation of the town and province of Utrecht concluded with the French contains the following articles:
The lives and property of the inhabitants shall be under the protection of the law; no one shall be molested for his conduct during the war, or the period that preceded it. Entire liberty of religious worship.
All the other articles have been declared by the French general beyond his power to grant and have been referred to the decision of the Representatives of the French people.
PERPIGNAN, Jan. 11.
The bad weather delays, it is true, the progress of our victorious army; but it does not suffer alone; it has been a greater injury to the enemy. Their fleet suffered much in the night of the 16th—one of their large vessels has lost every mast or spar, and was towed in; 12 or 15 transports were cast ashore between the mouth of the Mougà to Roses. Several besides were dismasted, among others the Vice Admiral's.
The Rose-bud has been evacuated; and as we are in possession of the bud we shall soon be in possession of the Roses.
Feb. 4.
The day before yesterday the bust of Marat, which had been put up at the theatre in Feydeau street, was again thrown down. The same thing was done on that day at the Vaudeville theatre, with this peculiar circumstance, that a rope tied to the neck of the bust was connected to the bottom of the curtain, the rising of which caused the overthrow of the bust.
Letter of General Daendels.
Head Quarters at Laerdam, Jan. 17. The representatives of the French people expect from the Batavians that they will free themselves. They do not wish to conquer them nor force them to receive against their will, assignats, but they wish to be allied to them as a free people. Let them, the cities of Dordrecht, Harlem, Leyden, Amsterdam, all Holland, in a word effect their own revolution; and let them send deputies to the representatives of the French people, who are at Bois-le-Duc for that effect.
Feb. 8.
Extract of a letter dated Brest, Jan. 20. The division of rear admiral Vanstalle, composed of eight ships of the line and some frigates, which formed the light squadron of the grand fleet, entered the road last evening and this morning. It was separated from the grand fleet by the foggy weather, nine days after its departure from Brest road. No news is arrived from the grand fleet, which will without doubt soon return, because of the W. and S. W. winds.
P. S. A courier has just arrived, and brings the disagreeable intelligence of the
loss of the Neptune, a 74 gun ship; she made nine inches water in an hour; all hands were employed at the pumps, except the captain; the cannons were thrown over board; and the ship was at last run ashore near Poros, in a bay between Brehat and Morlaix, 36 miles from Brest. The Neptune was one of the oldest ships, and never much depended on.—The loss is, therefore, of little consequence to the naval force of the republic.
January 27.
Every moment we are favoured with new details of the immense riches which victory has delivered to the Republicans in Holland. They exceed even the fondest wishes we entertained. They found a superb foundry of arms at the Hague; the city of Delft offered the most considerable and best furnished arsenal of Europe. The city of Dordrecht contained 632 brass cannons, 40,000 stand of arms, an immense quantity of warlike stores of all kinds, and provisions enough to maintain an army of 40,000 men during a whole campaign. Excellent dock yards fitted in a masterly manner for the construction of ships, and provided with timber enough to create a numerous fleet, we only state part of the immense advantages resulting from the capture of Rotterdam. Every where magazines glutted with provisions, which the Dutch, guided by a prudent economy, stored up, in order to sell them with double advantage in calamitous years.
Gold is not the most precious article the provinces of Holland offer us. Provisions of all kinds, and an abundance of those merchandizes which begin to become scarce in France, are of much more importance to the Republic, and if we know how to take all the advantages of this conquest, the former abundance will soon return to France. The maintaining of our armies will cost the Republic not a farthing, and our enemies disgraced, confounded, defeated and routed on all sides, will be glad to accept kneeling, the conditions we shall please to grant them.
The representatives of the people with the armies of the North, of Sambre and Meuse wrote to the Convention from the Hague, on the 21st Jan.
"The strongholds, Willemstadt, Breda, Gorcum, and Bergen-op-Zoom; the Dutch fleet detained in the Texel and Helleborn, are all in the hands of the republicans. We owe the capture of the last mentioned port to General Bonneau. Learning that 600 of our brethren were there held prisoners of war, he gave intimation to the commander of that fort of his intention to get possession of it. He, in consequence, armed our brothers, who drove out the English.
"We send off to Paris as prisoners of war, the princes Salm-Salm and Hohenlohe, [not the great Hohenlohe who was in the Austrian service] who were shot with an aid-de-camp of Clairfayt.
"They had offered a considerable sum to two captains, one Danish, the other American, to transport them to England. These brave men answered that not being at war with the French they would do nothing against their interests; that they should observe a strict neutrality. We shall write to the minister of Denmark and the United States to testify to them the gratitude of the French Republic."
A thousand plaudits interrupted the reading of this interesting intelligence.
AMSTERDAM, January 28.
YESTERDAY a new Tree of Liberty, decorated in the most elegant manner and crowned with the cap of Liberty, was planted before the Town House. It had been prepared by a Society of staunch Patriots, and carried in procession, with great pomp, from the Church to the place where it was erected. Every person desired to touch it, and all who assisted in carrying it esteemed themselves happy. It was planted during a concert of various musical instruments. The national guard of Amsterdam formed a circle around, within which a great number of young ladies, dressed in white and decorated with the three coloured ribband, danced amidst the acclamations of the people. It is charming to see the harmony that reigns between the French soldiery and our good citizens.
About the end of last week, General Winte went from hence, with a body of troops, for Helder, to seize the vessels of war which were there, as well as at Port New Dieppe, in which expedition he succeeded, as well as that to the port of Helvoetsluyts, whither he went for the same purpose.
Extract of a letter from the Hague, January 29.
"We have had a new proof of the perfidy of the Stadtholderian party, and of the Assembly of the ancient States General. It is now fully ascer-
tained that in order to appease the Patriots, these gentlemen had circulated a rumour, that the Stadtholder had resigned all his employments, civil and military, and that his resignation had been accepted by the States General. This is a falsehood, and the counsellors of the Stadtholder have been more expert, or rather more perfidious. We may decide on this subject from the following resolution entered into by the States General the 18th January, the very day on which the Stadtholder departed. The Patriots have found this infamous document in the secret register of the deliberations of their high mightinesses.
"Sunday, Jan. 18, 1795.
"Report has been made to the Assembly by Mess. Croteney and other Commissioners of their high Mightinesses for military affairs, who have been directed by the resolutions of this day, to examine a letter from his highness, of the same date, written at the Hague, and of the following tenor:—"That the circumstances which made his highness foresee the lot that awaits him, in case the enemy should penetrate further into the country, and his not being willing to oppose any obstacle to peace, of which the good citizens have so much need, have determined him to quit the country with all his family, for a certain time, hoping that their high mightinesses will not disapprove this step. His highness prays the supreme being to shed his most precious blessings on his once happy country, and to restore its ancient splendor. He protests solemnly he has used his best endeavours to serve it well, and that he utterly despairs of being able to contribute any further to its defence. And finally, that if circumstances should, at any future day, allow him to be useful to his country, which he holds dearer than any other object in the world, their high mightinesses will always find him disposed to exert himself to the utmost. His highness has determined that his two sons, whose resignation of the command of the troops of the states he has accepted, should accompany him."
Having deliberated on the premises, and had regard to the actual state of affairs, which demands some precautionary measures, which cannot be taken in the usual mode of deliberation, it has been found necessary to declare, that whatever may be determined for the present and hereafter, shall not carry any prejudice at future times to any person whatever. It has been since determined to write to the commanders of troops, as well as to the governors, commanders of cities and fortresses belonging to the States General, that his highness has withdrawn from their territory only for a time, and that his two sons, the princes of Orange, had been dismissed from the command of the army; in consequence it has been ordered that all the military officers whatsoever, shall provisionally forward to the council of state of the union, all the military and other reports which have hitherto been submitted to the said prince, in capacity of captain general of the united provinces.
It has been ordered, that orders shall be forwarded to Mons. De Latrey, his highness's private secretary to forward without any delay to the council of state, all the military reports, which shall come to the address of his highness, and all other letters whatsoever, which he shall have reason to presume contain military details.
PARIS, Pluviois 23.
The States General of the United Provinces have decreed the following Proclamation, it has been just published;
PROCLAMATION.
"The Representatives of the French People who are at present in this country, having communicated to us that it would be necessary to make immediate provision for the pressing wants of the French army, and having consequently demanded the following articles:
 200,000 quintals of wheat  5,000,000 bundles of hay of 15 lbs each  200,000 bundles of straw each of 10 lbs.  5,000,000 measures of oats, of 10 lbs each  150,000 pair of shoes  20,000 pair of boots  20,000 coats and waistcoats  40,000 pairs of breeches  150,000 overalls  200,000 shirts  50,000 hats  The whole to be delivered at three several periods, within one month, at Bois-le-Duc, Thiel, and Nimeguen. And further—12,000 oxen in the space of two months. Decreed to be furnished accordingly."
The representative of the people Briez, delegated to the armies of the North, of the Sambre and the Meuse, has written to his colleague Merlin of Douay, that the French troops on the 19th inst. entered Middleburg and Flushing; and that all the province of Zealand is in their power.
Extract of a letter from Dunkirk, Pluviois 14.
"At present the report is general,
that Zealand is in the power of the Republicans, and that admiral Kinbergen, has by orders of the regenerated states, hoisted the three coloured flag."
Extract of a letter from Amsterdam, dated January 18.
"The news arrived here yesterday that the Van guard of the French having drawn near the suburb of Utrecht, which is situated without the gate Polespoort, had been complimented by a deputation of the Regency, composed of three members and one Secretary; that the French afterwards entered the town: a few hours after we were informed that the General Daendels joined their Van guard with one column more.
"An immense crowd of people were assembled in our city before the Palace of the Arms d'Emden; these received with universal shouts of joy the intelligence of the deliverance of Utrecht, and the people showed the most ardent desire of breaking their chains, in spite of all the efforts of the Regency, and of a numerous garrison.
"Consequently, this morning, before ten, the people put themselves in motion. The rendezvous was before the palace of the Arms d'Emden—there were openly distributed national cockades. The mind of the people was raised, and those who wanted to moderate their ardor were disregarded.
"All popular societies are this moment re-instituted and assembled in great numbers.—The citizen Grayenhoff, adjutant general of General Daendels, entered the town, and immediately went to the Governor, the Comte Goloskin.
"The 19th the crowd in all the clubs considerably increased, particularly in that known under the name of 'Doctrine,' where the principal merchants are to be found, and which was suppressed by a proclamation in October last. There was made a report to the burghers of what had passed with the citizen Grayenhoff. His proposition was, that the Regency should resign their offices of their own accord, otherwise the people should turn them out of their places.
"The club was adjourned till 9 o'clock at night, in order to wait for the answer of a Stadtholderian magistrate. The people applauded much at this repast, and they remained assembled during the whole night.—Early this morning they met on the Dam, where the applause and shouts of Vive la Republique were universal. At eight in the morning all the bells began to chime with patriotic music. Two tri-coloured flags were hoisted on the state-house, and the Stadtholderian troops, which composed the garrison, had orders to leave the town. General Goloskin has been forced to resign, and citizen Grayenhoff was made commandant of the city. At 11 o'clock in the morning the tree of liberty, with a hat on the top, was planted on the Dam.
"The present Magistrates and the house of the Bourgomasters have been turned out by the people, and a provisional regency was named in their stead, composed of twenty members, who took their seats in the council room of the state house, when the Citizen Brender, Brandis and Zademan were appointed secretaries. This Commission took upon them to organize the new municipal regency, as well as the council of war of the citizens. A Bookseller, named Verlam, who was detained in prison with another patriot was taken out of it by the people, and also Visscher, an ancient Counsellor; pensioned by the City, with five of his colleagues, detained in a strong place, were set at liberty, and led in triumph with great solemnity to the town house."

PROCLAMATION
Of the Representatives of the people of France, sent to the armies of the North, Sambre and Meuse.
TYRANNNY, which conspired against the liberty of mankind, has declared war on us, and attempted to oppress us.
A stubborn Stadtholder made himself master of your government; he entered into the pernicious coalition of tyrants, and formed with them the rash resolution of enslaving a magnanimous people.
Your blood, your treasure, were lavished in that criminal attempt.
The fate of arms answered the justice of our cause, and our victorious armies have entered your territories. Batavians! we are very far from thinking that you are accomplices of this horrid attempt. Our enemies are also yours.
The blood of the founder of the Republic of the United Provinces still runs in your veins, and amidst the havocks of war we still continue to consider you
both as our friends and allies, and it is upon this principle that we are now among you; we bring confidence and not terror along with us.
It is but a few years ago, when a haughty conqueror presented laws to you, and we now restore liberty to you; we do not come into your country to enslave—the French nation shall respect your independence.
The armies of the republic of France shall observe the strictest discipline; the least injury and extravagancy committed against the inhabitants, shall be severely punished.
The security both of person and property shall be maintained.
The free exercise of religion shall not be disturbed. The laws, customs, and manners shall still be maintained. The people of Holland, by using their sovereignty, shall alone be able to alter or improve the constitution of their government.

HAGUE, 7th Pluviose.
The members of the new states of the province of Holland being assembled at the hotel called Heerenlogement, the citizens of the Hague were introduced to compliment them. Citizen Peter Paulis was chosen president. Two secretaries were likewise appointed, viz. De Lauge and Spoors. The former secretary Koyer was called in, and he was directed to convoke the Assembly without calling either the ci-devant nobility or the grand pensionary. They went in a body to the General Assembly of the States, where they were received by the secretary Royer. They qualified themselves as Provisionary Representatives of the People of Holland—They decreed the Sovereignty of the People and the Rights of Man, and abolished the Stadtholdership with all its dependencies. The oath upon the old constitution was suppressed.
The chambers of accounts and others were dissolved, and were replaced by committees of public welfare, military affairs and finances. Which were immediately organized.
The deputies to the States General have been recalled, and the liberty of gunning upon one's own ground has been allowed. They have given notice of all this to the representatives of the French people, who were satisfied there-with.
PARIS, 24 Pluviose.
The German Gazette of Strasbourg, gives the following Anecdote.
WHEN Baron de Stael arrived in Switzerland he was invited to a dinner by the diplomatic body. He appeared with the national cockade, as did likewise his lady. Their excellencies the ministers of Russia, England, Spain & Naples, were seized with terror at the sight of this dreadful ensign of liberty, Baron Stael, who perceived their convulsive motions, said to them with dignity, "I am sent by Sweden to do homage to the sovereignty of the French people; I must, therefore, conform myself to their customs before I put my foot into that regenerated country; and I must try to obtain the good will of its inhabitants by wearing those colors which are so dear to them. I am far from blushing at this token of friendship and gratitude. Sweden may well do voluntarily and of her own inclination, what you and your masters will be obliged to do in a short time, in spite of yourselves. The continual victories of the French assure me of it."
No body replied to this so unexpected harangue. They sat down to table and the utmost silence reigned during the dinner.
We just now learn by a private letter that the Stadtholder is arrived in England with his whole family. He occupies one of the royal castles in the neighbourhood of London.
The news of the victorious entry of the French into Holland, and the revolution which has taken place there, has occasioned a terrible sensation in England. The parliament has refused its sanction to the proposed loan of six millions sterling for the emperor. It is likewise said that they have opposed the embargo which ministry was going to lay on all the Holland vessels. It is, asserted that Pitt has given in his resignation, and that Fox had been nominated his successor, but that the latter had refused to take upon him so disagreeable a burthen.

PHILADELPHIA, April 2.

NEWS from the WESTWARD.
Extract of a letter from Captain Brady dated Well Liberty, March 16—to a Gentleman in this City.
"Last Thursday I came to my own home from the mouth of little Beaver. The spies in that quarter are all out, as well as the others. The Indians have already begun to follow up their former stroke; about ten days ago they killed one Man at Belville about ten miles below Muskimgum, and captured another near the mouth of Scioto. I have just been informed that three Indians were discovered yesterday near Carpenter's station near short creek; I shall start to morrow for filing creek and you may rest assured that nothing on my part shall be wanting to defend the County of Washington and the frontiers in general."
N. B. Captain Brady has the direction of the scouts in the service of the United States for the county of Washington Pennsylvania.
The French papers by Capt. Ewing state that Talien's Party still prevailed in the Convention, that Barrere, Bilaud Varennes, and Collot d'Herbois, were under arrest.
On the 8th February, Marat by a decree of the Convention was unpantheonized—this decree, re-decreed that no one should receive the honors of the pantheon till 10 years after their death. The Grand Duke of Tuscany has acknowledged the French Republic, and obtained a peace. It does not appear that freedom of Trade has been restored in France agreeable to the late decree, tho' all restrictions on the exportation of articles of Luxury were taken off.
GRENADA TAKEN.
Capt. Atwater of the sloop Comet, who left St. Eustatius on the 14th ult. informs, that 2,500 men from Guadalupe, having landed at Grenada, had succeeded in gaining possession of all the forts except that which covered the town of St. George's. Captain A. adds that numbers of the inhabitants of Grenada had come down to St. Eustatius, & from a gentleman whose family he saw at the Coffee House, he received the foregoing intelligence.
From the Aurora of yesterday morning.
The following is the 4th section of a bill entitled "an act to establish the permanent seat of the government of Pennsylvania." This bill, the object of which is to transfer the seat of government to Carlisle, has passed the house of representatives by a majority of two votes, in the absence of two members, opposed to the object of the bill.
"And be it further enacted by the authority aforesaid, that prior to the first day of December, in the year one thousand seven hundred and ninety eight, the whole of the ground and all the buildings within the city of Philadelphia, the property of this state, shall be sold, under the direction of Samuel Porstlethwait, John Montgomery and William Henderson."
The bill of which this section is a part, is made the order of the day, for this day, in the Senate of the State; when it is hoped it will meet (from the good sense and candor of that body) with the fate, to which the mean and despicable motives which gave rise to the business, and the injurious tendency of it to the honor and interests of the whole State, so justly entitle it.
On the above article, a correspondent observes, that if the Jacobin-democratic system of government, consisting of one branch only, was now the constitution of this commonwealth, the above bill would become a law—And that such a constitution does not exist, has been often most pathetically lamented by the writers in the Aurora.
TRANSLATION.
The Chevalier d'Engelstrom presents his compliments to Mr. Pinckney, and has the honor of herewith communicating to him, a translation of the Ordinance for the Landing of Foreign Goods at Gottenburg; with an earnest hope that it may lead to a more extensive commerce between the two countries. 17 December, 1795.
HEADS of an EDICT respecting Goods permitted to be imported and landed at Gottenburg, for exportation.
1. ALL kind of foreign goods or merchandise may be imported for exportation in Swedish or foreign ships, and either on Swedish or foreign ac-
count, the following articles however excepted—viz. Salt, all kind of manufactured goods, foreign brandies or spirits, and further all such kind of goods or merchandise as the East-India company agreeable to charter are permitted to import. Rum, however, is allowed to be imported for exportation when direct from America, either in ships belonging to the United States, or in Swedish ships.
2d. All such foreign goods or merchandise imported in foreign ships for exportation, which according to the ordinances of Sweden may be imported for home consumption, are to be deposited in separate warehouses; but whatever is intended for home consumption the alien duty thereon must be paid. All kind of prohibited goods whatever, either by foreign or Swedish ships, are also to be deposited in separate warehouses, where no other kind of goods for exportation must be found.
3. All kind of goods for exportation are to be landed warehoused and re-shipped, under the inspection of custom-house officers, and to remain under the custom house lock.
4. All goods for exportation to pay the king's duty at 1-4 per cent. ad valorem when imported, and the same duty when exported, whether by Swedish or foreign ships.
5. Besides the aforementioned duty, a recognition, of town dues, at 1 per m. ad valorem, is to be made when imported or exported.
6. The owners of goods for exportation have liberty of letting their goods remain in the warehouses during the term of two years, but if no opportunity before the expiration of that term, has been found, either for exporting the said goods or paying the duty thereon for home consumption, a prolongation of time, as far as three years if required, will be permitted, on due application, and on paying yearly 1-4 per cent. king's duty and 1 per m. town dues. In default or neglect hereof the different proprietors will be dealt with according to law.
7. The owners of goods deposited for exportation have also the liberty of pledging or transferring their property or any part thereof on giving due notice thereof to the commissioners of the customs, but no less quantity of goods can either be exported or permitted to pay duty, than what according to the commercial regulations come under the name of wholesale.
The foregoing note of 17 Dec. 1794, from Chevalier d'Engelstrom, is a faithful translation, and the ordinance therein referred to a true copy of the original communication from Mr. Pinckney, minister plenipotentiary of the United States at London, to the Secretary of State.

NEW-YORK, April 1. Extract of a letter from Antigua, dated 11th of March, to a gentleman in this city.
"Having written you lengthily yesterday, I take up my pen now, merely to inform you, that an English schooner has this day arrived from Grenada, with the intelligence that the French had landed there and were in possession of near three fourths of the Island: the confirmation it occasions here you can easily imagine."
Captain Smith of the sloop Rachel, arrived last Monday from Guadalupe, (last from St. Thomas's) informs, that the harbour of Point Petre was closely invested by several British ships of war. He confirms the accounts respecting the preparations for a secret expedition.

DECLARATION
Of the Commissioners delegated by the National Convention of France, to the Commanders in Chief of the British forces, Vaughan, Caldwell, Thompson, Stewart and Lindsay.
TIME, and the defeat of the English forces at Guadalupe, had weakened the remembrance of the heinous crimes, by which the vile fatellites of George had sullied the Windward Islands.
It might reasonably have been expected, that the sudden recall of the infamous Grey and Jarvis, should have made their successors aware of such cruelties, and engaged them to keep a conduct entirely the reverse—but we have been mistaken.
They prove to be as barbarous as those above mentioned cannibals. They have lately ordered to be put to death some soldiers of the Republic, their prisoners in St. Lucia. Cruelties like those,
call, forcibly call upon us to avenge our brothers, and to make use of reprisals.
In consequence of which, we do hereby give solemn notice to the commanders in chief of the British forces in the Windward Islands, that from and after the date of this our official declaration, the assassination of each and every individual republican (of whatever colour he is, and in whatever Island it may happen,) shall be expiated by the death of two English officers and prisoners. The guillotine shall, at the first notice thereof, perform this act of justice.
We do further declare that any Frenchman who at the moment of the landing of an army of the Republic commanded by one of us, or by any of our substitutes, shall not join against our common enemy, is outlawed, and his property forfeited to the Republic.
All those Frenchmen are declared traitors to their country, who have accepted of any employment under the English government. The law having already pronounced against those who emigrated before the capture of the Colonies, as well as against the wretches who delivered them up, and who are in the same predicament with those that sold Toulon and the Island of Corsica, where the punic faith of the English shone in its full lustre; and this law which inflicts the pain of death, shall here continue in full force.
We further signify to all the Commanders and Agents of the British Government, that Citizen Marnier, Commander at St. Lucia, is an officer in the French service, and that the Citizens, Massade, Lieutenant in the navy, and Lambert are our delegates in that Island invested with our power.
We have ordered this our present declaration to be sent by a flag of truce to the above-mentioned commanders of the British forces, and to be translated into English, and distributed in all the colonies.

When they returned, they found that the banditti on board had rifled from the cabin a gold watch, and several other valuable articles. Their whole conduct was piratical and Bermudian.
On the 25th inst. spoke a schooner from North Carolina bound to New-York.
The mate informs that he saw the brig Industry, capt. Williams, of Baltimore pass Martinique for Port-au-Prince; and that he was told that the Chesapeake, capt. Wife of Baltimore, had been captured and sent into Bermuda.

Those in Italics are new members. Although nothing has been done in Congress respecting the petition of Thomas Person and others, relative to their claims for lands within the Indian territory, we are desired by a Member of that body to caution the holders of said claims against parting with them, as a deep speculation, it is laid, is laid to obtain them.
BALTIMORE March 31.
Brig Sandwich, Capt. Pepper, arrived yesterday, 35 days from Martinique. Lat. 35, spoke the Schooner Trent, Capt. Cole, of Baltimore, out 42 days from Jeremie, in distress for water. Stayed by him two days, and at last, with great difficulty, supplied him with about 50 gallons.
The sloop Wolf, of Baltimore, was spoke yesterday, near North Point, 36 days from Jamaica.
By the above arrivals we learn that Victor Hugues, sent a flag to the commandant at Martinique, with a summons to deliver up the Island, or that he would shortly pay him a visit. The flag returned on the 20th of February, and on the 24th, a large number of transports, with about 9000 troops, were drawn off a-breach of Point Petre. Four seventy fours, cut down to 44 gun frigates, most of their guns 36 pounders, were to go as a convoy on the projected expedition. The result may probably be brought by the next arrival from that quarter.
We also learn that it was reported at Martinique, that Grenada had surrendered to the victorious arms of the republicans.
BOSTON, March 25.
POST ROADS. It is singular, but true, that eight years ago encouragement was barely given for two stages, and twelve horses, on the great road between this town and New-Haven, a distance of 170 miles—whereas at this time, there are upwards of an hundred horses, and twenty carriages employed!
The number of different regular Stages that run in the course of a week, from this town, are upwards of Twenty. Eight years ago there were but three. The regular, direct Post-Road from Wilscasset, in this Commonwealth, to Sunbury, in Georgia, embraces Sixty-Four post-towns, and a distance of 1513 miles. This, with the cross roads established, make near 10,000 miles out, over which mails are sent. The Patriot will contemplate this circumstance, with pleasure.

Published by Direction of the President and Managers of the Schuylkill and Susquehanna, and the Delaware and Schuylkill Navigation Companies. "Here smooth CANALS, across th' extended plain Stretch their long arms to join the distant main."
The sons of toil, with many a weary broke Scoop the hard bosom of the solid rock; Resistle through the st'ff opposing clay, With steady patience, work their gradual way;
Compel the Genius of th' unwilling flood Through the brown horrors of the aged wood;
Cross the lone waste the silver urn they pour, And cheer the barren heath, or sullen moor
"The traveller, with pleasing wonder sees The white sail gleaming through the dusky trees;
And views the alter'd landscape with surprise And doubts the magic scenes that round him rise.
Now like a flock of swans, above his head, Their woven wings the flying vessels spread Now meering streams, in artful maze glide While each, unmingled, pours a separate tide;
Now, through the hidden veins of earth they flow And visit sulphurous mines and caves below.
The ductile streams obey the guiding hand, And social Plenty crowns the HAPPY LAND! 22 wtt

This Lottery will afford an elegant specimen of the private buildings to be erected in the City of Washington—Two beautiful designs are already selected for the entire fronts on two of the public squares; from these drawings, it is proposed to erect two centre and four corner buildings, as soon as possible after this Lottery is sold, and to convey them when complete, to the fortunate adventurers, in the manner described in the scheme for the Hotel Lottery. A net deduction of five per cent. will be made to defray the necessary expenses of printing, &c. and the surplus will be made a part of the fund intended for the National University, to be erected within the City of Washington.
The drawing will commence as soon as the Tickets are sold off. The money prizes will be payable in thirty days after it is finished, and any prizes for which fortunate numbers are not produced within twelve months after the drawing is closed are to be considered as given towards the fund for the University, it being determined to settle the whole business in a year from the ending of the drawing and to take up the bonds given as security.
The real securities given for the payment of the Prizes, are held by the President and two Directors of the Bank of Columbia, and are valued at more than half the amount of the Lottery.
The twenty-four gentlemen who by appointment of the late Commissioners assisted in the management of the Hotel Lottery are requested to undertake this arduous task a second time on behalf of the public; a sufficient number of their having kindly accepted, it is hoped that the friends to a National University and the other federal objects may continue to favor the design. The synopsis of one of the Colleges, to form a branch of the National Institution, is already in the press, and will be speedily published, together with its constitution.
A compleat PLAN of the whole of this important Institution, compiled from a selection of the best materials, ancient and modern, will be submitted to the public whenever the same may have gone through such revisions as may be necessary to establish the perfect confidence and general approbation, so essential to its present rise and future existence for the general good of America.
By accounts received from the different parts of the Continent as well as from Europe, where the tickets have been sent for sale, the public are assured that the drawing will speedily commence, and that the care and caution unavoidably necessary to insure a safe disposal of the tickets has rendered the short suspension indispensable.
