LATE FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE.
LONDON, June 21.
According to accounts received yesterday at the Admiralty from Plymouth, we have the satisfaction to learn the capture or destruction of a whole fleet of victuallers belonging to the enemy in the Bay of Audierne, consisting of fifty sail, by a detachment of the channel fleet under the command of Sir J. B. Warren.
This spirited enterprize, we are happy to observe, has been executed without any considerable loss, two British seamen only having been killed.
Letters received yesterday morning at the Admiralty from Lord St. Vincent's, have brought advices from the grand fleet of a very recent date.
The Topaz frigate is ordered to be fitted for Admiral, or Vice-Admiral, to convey news to England, His Royal Highness the Duke of Kent.
June 25. We yesterday received Paris papers to the 21st inclusive. Their contents are of extreme importance.
We can state in addition to these, that letters have been received from Calais, by mercantile houses in the city, which confirm these accounts in the fullest extent.
It will be seen from the official bulletins of the army of reserve previous to this decisive action, that the French gained considerable advantages. From the position of Stradella, where their principal force was to be concentrated, the army moved forward as we predicted, in the determination to leave general Melas as little time as possible to concentrate his forces.
After the 9th the situation of the Imperial army was this; Gen. Melas had evacuated Turin, leaving 8000 men in the citadel, proceeding towards Alexandria. Turin was immediately occupied by part of the army of Reserve that had been left in the valley of Aoste, and by the corps of General Turreau, who had advanced on the side of Suza.
ded the fate of the war. There is nothing in history superior, if at all comparable to this extraordinary campaign.
It appears that Buonaparte has availed himself of his success to lead the emperor an overture of peace along with the utter and irretrievable ruins of his army!
The affairs of the Emperor are indeed in the most disastrous posture. In Suabia, though Moreau has so long detached a very strong body of men to the aid of the Chief Consul, he has retained an entire superiority over Kray!
If the Austrians have the means of reinforcing their armies and averting the dangers with which they are threatened, they have not a moment to lose.
The accounts from the Continent state, that the Austrians calculate upon the assistance of the British forces that have been sent to the Mediterranean.
The French papers contain very little intelligence respecting the expedition. It is reported that our troops are encamped on the little Island of Houat, and that it is expected that Belle-Île will be besieged.
PARIS, June 20. BULLETIN OF THE ARMY OF RESERVE. Stradella, 21 Prairial, June 10.
On the 20th (June 9.) the Chief Consul left Milan, proceeding to Pavia: he stopped there only an hour, mounted his horse, and passed the Po, in order to join the advanced guard, already engaged with the enemy.
1 Messidor, June 20. We are informed from Nantes that a body of English troops are encamped on the Îles of Houat and Hédic.
The other towns of Piedmont will, it is thought, be treated in the same manner.
Letters from Nice, dated 21st Prairial, (June 10.) state, "We have learned officially the agreeable news that the French had retaken the second town in Liguria, Savona, and that the centre of the army is near Genoa."
It is remarked at Vienna, that the exchange of couriers between the two courts of Vienna and Madrid, is much more frequent than has been usual for some time past.
Nothing confirms the report of the Archduke Charles's return to the army. It is asserted that one of the reasons why he quitted the command, was the refusal of fifty thousand men, whom he demanded as a reinforcement.
General Moreau has adopted a new regulation: he reserves to himself the power of making requisitions; but leaves those in kind to the disposition of the commissaries.
The efforts of our army under Moreau have suddenly taken a different direction. It is now approaching the south of Suabia, to establish by the channel of the Voralberg and the Grisons, its communication with the left wing of the army of reserve.
Private letters received this day from Vienna state, that the hopes of peace have revived with greater confidence than at any former period.
Baron Verg had been sent by the elector of Bavaria to General Moreau, upon an object of some moment, but had not succeeded in his mission.
The attempt made by the English to effect a landing at the entrance of the river Lannion has failed.
STRASBURG, 28 Prairial, June 17. It is said that an attack is meditated by the French on the Grisons.
NICE, 21 Prairial, June 10. The army continues to make rapid progress. It has taken possession of the famous post of Millesimo and St. James, where we made 2000 prisoners.
On the 13th, the free Imperial city of Kempton was obliged to pay 12,000 florins to a body of French troops; and the Bishop's See, 8000 florins;
CONSTANTINOPLE, May 3. We have hopes that negotiations will soon be resumed between General Kleber, and the Grand Vizier, who is still at Gaza, occupied in organizing the wrecks of his army.
LONDON, June 19. Yesterday we received Paris Journals to the 15th inst. Their contents are of the highest importance, as they bring the pleasing intelligence of the fall of Genoa.
They contain abundant details respecting the operations of the Chief Consul and his lieutenants. Concurrently with those of Moreau in Germany, they develop his plan of campaign, in which had been successful up to the moment when the surrender of Genoa occasioned him to lose all the fruit of his labours, and dissipated his most anxious hopes.
It was at that moment that the Chief Consul received the intelligence of the surrender of Genoa; and here end the operations of the Army of Reserve; the last dispatches
being dated on the 9th, from Milan. Gen. Moncay had arrived at Virzeza, and the final corps which had passed the Simplon, at Arona.
OPERATIONS IN GERMANY. June 19.
Yesterday arrived the first and second of the Hamburg mails that were due. The news from Italy is of course not so recent as by the way of Paris, but the operations of the armies in Germany reach down to a later date, and are extremely interesting.
Moreau persists in his plan of placing his right between Generals Kray and Melas. It was with a view to this, that Gen. Lecourbe took possession of Augsburg, on the 28th passed the Lech, and on the following days pushed parties as far as the Isar.
According to letters from Ratisbon of the 3d inst. the French was still on the Lech. A letter from Stuttgart of the 4th, would induce a belief that the whole French army had marched towards the frontiers of the Tyrol, and that the Austrian army had set out in pursuit of them.
A letter from Strasburgh, of the 6th, states, that on the preceding evening the French had been attacked by the Archduke Ferdinand, but that they had vigorously repulsed him.
PARIS, June 16. Extrat from the Publiciste. June 15, ten o'clock at night.
Several couriers have this evening arrived from the army of Italy. They bring dispatches written only a few hours back.
"They are masters of the whole course of the Po." "At the very moment when our troops were going to attack, with very superior forces, the army that was besieging Genoa, that town, reduced to a total want of provisions, was obliged to capitulate."
"Massena and his brave army have departed from Genoa with their arms and with the honours of war."
"They have the right of marching immediately against the Austrians. Massena and Suchet will re-unite 18,000 men to the French army."
"Melas, and all that remains of his army is shut up in Genoa."
Quiberon Expedition.
General Bernadotte to the Minister at War. June 8th, 8th year.
"I moved from Rennes the 17th in the morning, and arrived at Vannes on the 18th in the afternoon, with 4000 men, the troops marched twenty-six leagues in twenty six hours."
"The English, under the protection of their artillery, disembarked about five or six hundred men, and took possession of a part of the peninsula; the 13th at noon, 5 ships, 7 frigates, 12 transports, were seen near the Isle of Donat; in the evening, twenty ships of war surrounded the peninsula of Quiberon, and twenty-seven vessels were distinguished in the road of Belle Île;
"The 14th, in the morning, there was a general movement through the English line, St. Gildas, Grandmont, and Quiberon, were attacked."
"The 15th, the isthmus of Quiberon was closely blockaded; the enemy attacked the point, scoured the coast with their gun-boats, and disembarked from six to seven hundred men."
"General Desfureaux made troops which were at Auray advance, and ordered adjutant-general Remoux to march with the troops of the line which were at Port Liberté to the neighbourhood of Plonhamer;
"The 16th at night, the enemy made a general attack on Quiberon, Gracy, Loemariquer, Port Navalo, St. Gildes, St. Jacques, Pennerens, and Peneff."
"The 17th in the morning, he effected a descent at Port Navalo, of which he made himself master, he tried with ten sail, to penetrate into the little sea called the Morbihan, by attacking the fort Leomariquer;
"The 17th in the evening, all who had landed were re-embarked in their ships, and we counted from the peninsula of Quiberon to the mouth of the Vilaine, 50 sail, of whom 20 were large ships, and 14 frigates, we counted off Belle-Île 20 transports."
"The discoveries we have been able to make inform us that the troops in this expedition amount to about 12,000 men."
"After having given instructions to each general and left reinforcements on the coasts, I am going to make a movement to Pontivy. I shall be the more ready to march to the point the enemy shall attack."
"The English wished to embark corn, but they could not effect it; they have only
taken fifteen or twenty cows, which they paid for.
BERNADOTTE.
MILAN, July 9.
General Duhesme has occupied Cremona; he found there very considerable magazines: They are those mentioned in the letter of General Melas, to M. Mufel, and which were still unoccupied.
By intercepted dispatches found on a courier who was going from Mantua to Turin, we have become acquainted with the situation in the artillery and the hospitals of the former.
General Elnitz was much harried in his retreat from Nice. Gen. Suchet took from him 1,000 prisoners on the 12th and 13th.
General Suchet must have joined the corps of the army, which was in Genoa, towards Albenga. He will have under him a considerable force.
The armies are much fatigued by the continual rains; the Po has been considerably swelled, which somewhat retards our operations.
BY THIS DAY'S MAILS.
BALTIMORE, August 11.
To the Editors of the Federal Gazette.
GENTLEMEN, I enclose to you a hand bill printed by order of General Toussaint, containing an account of a recent defeat of Rigaud by general Dessalines.
I am gentlemen, your obedient servant, Washington, August 8, 1800.
Translated for the Federal Gazette.
LIBERTY. EQUALITY.
FRENCH REPUBLIC.
Toussaint Louverture, General in chief of the armies of St. Domingo, to the citizens of the north west, and of the conquered part of the south departments.
MY FRIENDS,
How painful must it be to my feelings to entertain you with a detail of new victories obtained over our unhappy, misled brethren of the southern department.
I have done every thing in my power to defend this unhappy country from the evils which await it. At each step of the army we halt, and invite the rebels to return to their duty.
One more attempt remains for me to essay, and it is with heart-felt pleasure I embrace it; to send a deputation of wise men, into the south to the magistrates of the people, to speak to them the words of peace, to promise an oblivion of the past, and renew my proclamation of the 1st instant, which grants impartially, an amnesty to every citizen.
LIBERTY. EQUALITY.
FRENCH REPUBLIC.
At the head quarters, at Mazaine plantation, the 10th Messidor, (28th June) the 8th year of the French Republic one and indivisible.
Dessalines, brigade general and commander in chief of the republican army against the rebels of the southern department, to citizens Toussaint Louverture, general in chief of the army of St. Domingo.
General,
I learnt from the refugees who had deserted to us last night, that Rigaud had advanced with a number of troops into the plain du Fond des Negres; and that their infantry was encamped upon a neighboring plantation to that in which I had fixed the head quarters of the enemy, with two pieces of brass cannon 4lbs. calibre; and that the cavalry was upon another, a little farther off with Rigaud, who came yesterday to where his infantry was, and administered an oath to every one to die upon their entrenchments, rather than make one retrograde step, or abandon the two pieces of cannon.
The fever having permitted me to rise this morning, I ordered the chief of brigade Domage, to take the command of my column, leaving only at head quarters the first battalions of the 4th and 7th demi brigades, and to march with the remainder of the troops to dislodge the enemy, who were too near us; and enjoined him particularly not to return to me without the two pieces of cannon, which Rigaud's troops had sworn

not to abandon. The combat was bloody. The rebels defended for two entire hours the two pieces of cannon, but the 10th demi brigade carried one, and while the enemy was defending the other valiantly, the 4th demi brigade, with its accustomed bravery, carried off the other and put the whole army to flight. A number of the rebels fell upon the field; the rest found safety by flight into the neighbouring woods. The two pieces of cannon have just arrived at head quarters: they are in fine order to serve against Rigaud on some other occasion, when, with his cavalry, not wishing to stand the shock of our brave troops, took refuge in Acquin. We have but few wounded, and those slightly.
We made a number of prisoners, taken a quantity of biscuit, 800 flints, 54 lb. cannon cartridges meant without doubt, for the piece we took at St. Michael's.
The third demi brigade of the south, which had arrived from the Cotes de Mer, was coming up to reinforce Rigaud, but arrived too late. The third battalion of our fourth demi brigade, charged them within pistol shot, and put them to flight. Our cavalry pursued them and took one of their standards, which I send you. I send the two pieces of cannon to Petit Guave: my soldiers are too much weakened by hunger to take them with us.
I send you also seven prisoners we took in the action of to-day.
You will find under the enclosed a proclamation of Rigaud, which we found.
In this moment I am seized with a fever, and must retire to my bed. I wish you more health general than I myself enjoy.
Health and respect, (Signed)
DESSALINES. P.S. Among the prisoners is a young man, Couleur de Cap. He will give you information of the steps taken by many of the municipalities of the south, with Rigaud, to engage him to take arrangements with you, with the answer made them by Rigaud.

Yesterday we were deprived of one of the Boston papers, containing European details, and that accounts for their not appearing in last evening's Gazette;—to day we are again deprived of the Paper due from thence, The Printers in N.Y. and Boston, are earnestly solicited to pay attention to our complaints on this subject; there is improper conduct somewhere; whether on the part of the Printers or Post establishment we cannot determine.
An alarm having been excited in N. Y. respecting the Yellow Fever, Dr. Tillery, the resident Physician, has publicly declared that there has been but one case lately.
Duane having become notorious for falsehood, we questioned his having seen the Morning Chronicle of June 25; but it appears he has received that paper. Our doubts may afford him a profitable lesson, and we recommend to his perusal the Fable of the Shepherds Boy and the Wolves, the Lad became so notorious for falsehood, that he was not believed when he spoke the truth.
Mr. Nones has sent a long essay to the Editor of the Aurora, and introduces it with some remarks, respecting the conduct of the Editor of the Gazette of the United States.—As Mr. N. has deviated from a promise made to me (unsolicited) I shall take no further notice of his communication. He has chosen a proper vehicle for the infection of his defence, as he calls it.—Were such silly stuff admitted in this Gazette, we should next hear of Secretary Vizzie with his defence.
Duane (Billy) gives us to understand that the Morning Chronicle of the 25th, came from the same and similar source, with a farrago hotch potch of lies, about which he seems very much concerned, that we have never taken the pains to enquire. It is for people who doubt to be inquisitive, but the truth is, we well knew at the time he published the nonsense, above referred to, that it was a sheer fabrication! Why then should we enquire any thing about a nullity?
We believe that very ridiculous stories are very often told to Duane, which he, for want of capacity to distinguish, mistakes for truth; but we hold it very unreasonable in him to expect us and others to believe them.—Credulity, he may learn it from GOWIN.—Credulity "is not the prominent feature of the times."
It is said by a Foreign politician, that Jacobinism is now writhing in its last agonies. But the snake must be killed before the peace of society can be made secure.

The Editor of a morning paper, stating his receipt by the British Packet, Earl of Leicester, of a regular file of the London Oracle, adds, that though he finds "nothing of a very important nature in these papers, they contain much interesting detail ." Now, if the author of this paragraph had not publicly declared himself to be really and truly an American , one would suppose that both he and his composition were of Hibernian birth. For how in the name of St. Consistency can a paper be an absolute negation of the important , and yet contain interesting details ? By the head of ADDISON and JOHNSON this is not the way in which our ancestors wrote. This is not the English style . It is a specimen of the new American ; and we recommend it to the very particular attention of Mr. Noah Webster. It will supply a genuine article for his projected dictionary of what he fully calls the AMERICAN language .

TO THE GOVERNOR
Of the State of Pennsylvania.
SIR,
I HAVE been no careless spectator of your conduct, since your elevation to the chair of State. In my calculations previous to your election on the steps you might think proper to pursue, as Governor, I assumed as materials for my judgment, the events of your life; your temptations to deviate from the paths of rectitude; and a disposition you had never studied to conceal; and the result of those calculations strengthened me in my determination to oppose your selfish ambition, and unsolicited claims to the favour of the public.—The tyranny which had marked your public and your private career; the influence you had displayed as a public, and the unfeeling and incessant oppression, as a private character, exhibited on me as a favoured and a feigned duty, to my country to oppose those arts which should vest you with a power, the improper exercise of which would blast the fairest prospects of the state.
Yet had I viewed you as a man superior to flattery; as one who could feel the dignity of his station, when he had lost sight of his own, I could have anticipated a propriety of conduct in your excellency, when you should be seated in the most exalted station in the government. Common men, who find themselves at the summit of power, have no inducement to abuse that power, when they have no object to gain by it—if they should err, I can only view them as actuated by that spirit of revenge, and that deep malignity of soul which raged in the breast of Nero, and which was Nero's pride.
But I believed your mind to have been formed in no common mould; actuated by no common principle; intent on no common end; success cannot gratify your ambition, nor perjury nor misery damp your thirst for revenge; nature is often on extremes—When she formed Cæsar, she suffered a Cæsar to exist. Milton shone in the days of Cromwell; and when the virtues of Washington adorned a world, the vices of a Governor formed a contralt, marked and strong.
If my information be correct, your Excellency visited the Prothonotary's Office in Lancaster to be ascertained of the existence of the record which damned the reputation of Stever; when convinced of its existence, you expressed your regret at the appointment.
Say, Sir, why was this? Is the numerous commissions you have signed, was your pen guided by the spirit of patriotism? Was it the wish of your heart "to do justice to the genuine principles of Republican Institutions?" Did you analyse the characters of the rest of those men whom you have appointed?
Did the spirit of patriotism prompt you to raise into office a man who had guided the armies of the enemy at a time when you repudiated so strongly even passive conduct, that your opinion was that he who was not for us was against us!?
Were you influenced by the spirit of patriotism when you appointed a man, whom you knew to have delighted in reviling the character of Washington? Were you actuated by that spirit when you created a man a major-general—a man whom the Legislature had but a short time before declared unworthy of an appointment?
Was it the spirit of patriotism which urged you to raise into office another, whom you yourself had declared to be destitute of principle?
Was it—say, Sir, was it the spirit of patriotism which whispered to your parental feelings to appoint two of your children into offices, the loss of which deprived one man of his bread, and sent another to his grave?
And was it by these appointments you meant to substantiate your public, official declaration that "you had selected the Officers of the Government without regard to personal feeling?"
But, Sir, you regretted the appointment of Stever, when you found he stood convicted on record—a Thief .—Pray, Sir, was it or was it not your duty to have investigated the character of this man previous to the appointment, and peculiarly so, when you knew that appointment was for life?
When it shall become a fact, too strong to be denied, even by the spirit of party, that the offices of the State are filled by men destitute of principle, you will tell us that you regret it, but that you knew not the character of these men!—but will you tell us also that there were no men of principle and ability, whom you might have appointed, and men whose characters you did know?
Sir, the Constitution has confided to you the appointment of nearly all the officers of government; and, in making those appointments, however you may shield yourself under the plea of Constitutional power, you are and will be responsible to your country for the injuries they may occasion to that country.—Yet while your countrymen will seek for some prospect of good amid the gloom that surrounds them, they will thank their God, as I do, that the office of Treasurer is beyond your reach, and that the funds of the State are in no danger of being plundered by a dealer in certificates, or an Irish traitor.
SENECA.
THE WINTRY DAY!
BY MRS. ROBINSON.
IS it in mansions, rich and gay, On downy beds or couches warm, That Nature owns the Wintry Day . And shrinks to hear the howling storms? Ah! no!
'Tis on the bleak and barren heath, Where Mis'y feels the shaft of death, As to the dark and freezing grave Her children, not a friend to save— Unheeded go!
Is it in chambers, silken dress, At tables, with profusion's heap; Is it on pillows soft to rest In dreams of long and balmy sleep? Ah! no!
'Tis in the rushy but obscure, Where Poverty's low fans endure, And fearely daring to repine, On a straw pallet mute, recline, O'erwhelm'd with woe!
Is it to flaunt in warm attire, To laugh and feast, and dance and sing, To crowd around the blazing fire, And make the roof with revels ring? Ah! no!
'Tis on the prison's flinty floor— 'Tis where the deafening whirlwinds roar, 'Tis when the sea boy, on the mast, Hears the waves bounding to the blast, And looks below!
Is it in chatais gay to ride, To crowd the splendid midnights ball, To revel in luxurious pride, While pamper'd vassals wait your call? Ah! no!
'Tis in a cheerless, naked room, Where Mis'y's victims wait their doom! Where a fond mother famish'd dies, While forth a frantic father flies, Man's desperate foe!
Is it where, prodigal and weak, The silly spendthrift scatters gold, Where eager folly hastens to seek The sordid wanton, false and bold? Ah! no!
'Tis in the silent spot obscure, Where, fenc'd all sorrows to endure, Pale Genius learns , Oh! lesson sad! To court the vain and on the bad, False praise bestow!
Is it where Gamesters , thronging round, Their shining heaps of wealth display? Where Fabio's giddy tribes are found, Sporting their senseless hours away? Ah! no!
'Tis where neglected Genius sighs, Where Hope , exhausted, silent dies; Where Merit starves, by Pride oppress'd, 'Till ev'ry dream that warms the breast Forbears to flow!
