three cheers. I instantly Went On hoiad, and the
following morning lautkid cif 'Sgraves:!od, 'and
proceeded to Schevling, where the Dutch sailoo
announced me tt, PaoNcg. (wilo. holds sonic Office

them either what I was, Or veleat I MIS
The ficauriations oldie whole population drowit
ed every word I could say ; and I wAs. hi-
st:lnt-1y put into acarriage, and followed.by all
vaults, cheering as t went along, until I r'e:irlied
the house -of Count Imbued STVRIJ:\t, llii tart'
Coventry!. of
,the Hague. From the manner in
which lit received me, I' instantly perceived-he ,
!had fallen into the same error with the people :
I therefore declared that I was an limulde indi-
vithral, uncimpeeted with and unemployed by the
British or any other Government, and • that my
vie.ws in visiting Holland were purely of a com-
mercial nature. He then .asked me, -what
news I brought to which I replied, that he
was of coarse aware that even the splendid vic-
tory of Leipsie had not created in England
,half
the enthusiastic rapture that had beet! prOdue- •
ed by the counter-revolution in Holland. To
My surprise I found, that excepting the fact of
Baron PearoNenett and Mr. VAost, having land-
ed, :they were uninformed not. only of the vast
preparations made in England . for their assist..
once, but of the universal joy of the people at
the arrival of the Deputies., I then gave the
Count the London Gazette Extraordinary, with
all the newspapers of Monday, the 22J. The •
Count .seemed overwhelmed with joy; observ-
ing; that 1 was the messenger Of. -Providence,
sent to relieve the dreadful ani:iety of a gal,
[ant people, who, without arms, without am-
munition, without weapons of ally descrip-
tion, • had, 'by the simple, but patriotic cry of
Ora)ije Buoven, expelled the tyrants under
whom they :I'ad. suffered all ,the horrors of
litary Ilespotism„ I was then conducted. to Mr.
I fooneNpone's, who is at the head of the Provi-
sional Goyernment of the'Hague. Seeing thrt the
same reception awaited roe there that?! had
ceived front Count SrVattNi , I repeated my 4claira-
tion as to who, and what I was. Mr. IIOOOLN-
Doh'. read with great attention the Gazette; and
the snbSequent papers ; and thew exclainted,
Great God ! bad I one British. turiforat to strew, ,1
I could Make all the Frenchmen in the country
shut themselves up in their strong holds.' Con-
ceiving this to he a figurative expression applied to
the arrival of theexpedition, Itold him, that until
the Wind changed there was no possibility of exam-
plish ing his wish. He then exclaimed,'Oh my friend,
had you been a British officer, ypo might have saved
the country-and the people, With whom lam deter-
mined to stand or fall. The sight of one Brit' -;h
uniform would have cheered. the -drooping spirits
Of my' gallant, but, unarmed countrymen, and
struck terror into the breasts of the detested com-
manders at the enemy.'. Here I began to under-
stand his aim, which was to, make such a demon-
stratioa; of British assistance being 'at hand, as
might deter the enemy• from daring to attack, as it
was probable, that the spies which the French
still hint in the country wutild report'to their cm,
ployers the presence of a British officer, as prepa-
. story to the arrival of troops ; and in a moment
I was seized smith such. an irresistible impulse to
aid, to the utmost of my power, thAsuffering, the
noble fellows by whom 1 was surrounded, that'
'abandoning every original pursuit, I adopted his
idea, by instantly strippiog, and putting on the
uniform. of the British volunteer corps to which I
belong. No language of Mine can paint the joy
that sparkled in every countenance, or .my admi-
ration of the patriotic glow that darted front the
E
eyes. of the heroic HOOGNDORP and ST.Tnum.
was Uteri, amidst the acclamations of thousand:,
'earried7 all over the Hague. my return to Mr.
lloocesnottp's, he entreated on favour more,
namely, that I would 'present myself at Rotter-;,
darn in my Uniform, and be the bearer of tS letter
• to General Larums. Instantly I complied; and
about two o'clock 1 arrived. It is needless to say
that there a scene similar to that at the Hague en-
. 'stied. Admiral Kikiteter, who had that Morning
declared for Oranje Boom, accompanied m 6 to the
dock-ydrd from the General's, amidst incessant
shouts of " tiollg live the KING Oranje
Booven and Groat Brittanje!" After dining with
the Admiral, I returned to the Hapie, and went
to bed at twelve o'clock ; thus fitiishing,Friday,

" About one in the morning the drums .heat. to
arms, but the alarm though false, deprived me of
any further rest. At d.jty-light I. waited upon the
Qount, to know the news ; he shewed me a letter
from the Prince of OIIANGE, which he had receiv-
ed during the night, adding, with great politeness
and I believe with great sincerity, that front the
ohlipticins he Was under. for what 1 had done, he
felt it his duty to advise me instantly to go to the
coast, 'for the enemy was eXpect"ed.. 1 repaired
immediately. to Me. floooF.Nociar's, whh seemed
to think the danger Inure remote. In the course of
this interview, 1 mentioned, that from what 1 had.
learnt front theAthriiral at Rotterdam the day before,
the boats he 'had dispattelietilo the westward „Were
neat likely,,from the winds we had had, to fall:in with
British cruisers ; but that if he would give me a
boat,l would steer more to the northward, where
I expected (as there was only one frigate Watch-
ing the squadron under Admiral YEttnEtri, in the
Texel.) to fall in with some mca of war, At three
o'clock, P. M. I enibarked at Scherling, haring
previously prefrared straw mixed with tar, and
fastened to a long pole, which we continued to
burn- front sun-set until we heard the cheering
sound of a distant gun, for which we steered.—
At twelve a'clock 1 was on hoard of- the Scar-
