Letters accounts respeaing the late.mundations.
Letters from Arles state, that they have had 38 days
of continual rain. If the waters which cover the

" Amidst a scene of murder and'rObbiry; you
will not expert I. can be .very particular in. my.
remarks. Without any pteface I will inform you,
that yesterday morning the present Commander
(a black .man), received -Official advice, that an
Army of revolted Negroes had encamped a few
leagues without the gates,. their intention being
to march to the City, and fire it in several places,
and massacre the Whites, and those Blacks in'powerr
Immediately the houses and stores were closed,•,and
the drums beat to arms ; the women and children
running to .and fro in wild confusion, presented 'a
sight nor' to be described': 3000 Troops were under
arms in .a few minutes, and the General in person
headed a party .of. horse. • The Dragoons finally
''a-arched, or rather flew, to meet the Enemy, and
our anxiety to be sure was great to hear from them.
We waited until tea at night,' when they returned
almost dead with fatigue,. it raining' in torrents the
whole day, and the weather uncommonly hot. They
came up with a part of the Enemy five leagues from
hence, and charging upon'them, took a few priso-
ners, and brought them in ; -they saw 600 encamped.
Those taken will soon be executed.; but this is but
the beginning of trouble, for to-day again the drums
are beating, and no business doing. God only
knows how it will terminate. I wish it was possi-
ble. to get off. I can. obtain 'but little information
from any Frenaman ; a general panic ~has seized
them all, and no one speaks loud enough..to be.
heard. The country presents a scene of unheard_
of Murder. Tile insurgents yesterday -Massacred
a number.of Whites, among whom were:several
women and old men. An express has just gone to
General .IVloy ss, who is at Fort Liberty, to march
with his Troops to form a junetion with General
Ca RISTOPHER• fnmething 4ecisivd will soon take
place."
• " Ten o'Clock.

" The Artillery and Part of the Infantry have
marched. Accounts from the Enemy are so va.:
tious that we cannot ascertain the number nor dis-
cipline of his army. A number of the. inhabitants
lodged on board of the American vessels last night ;
they-were obliged to go off privately and in a tre-
mendous rain. ' Sleep is a stranger to my eyes; we
were shut uplri a small room last night, every mo-
ment expeting something dreadful. To-night will
will be the same. Every night since I have been
here, murder has been committed, and, shocking
to relate, I have seen human entrails carried about
upon the bayonets of the inhuman Negro soldiers."

" Monday Morning.

" As yet we are safe, thank God. Last even-
ing a body of Troops marched out with provisions
sufficient for several days, and their bread upon
their bayonets. The sight was novel, and not un-
pleasing. An embargo has been laid upon all ves-
sels in port." . .

" Tuesday Morning.

" At two o'clock this morning the Chief of the
Insurgents was brought in a prisoner and lodged in
gaol. He is fettered in a cruel manner, and his
cries are heard a long distance. Ingenuity is at
work, contriving torments for this poor wretch. It
,is said, four horses will be employed to draw him
in quarters. His name is FLARILL, and his obje&
was to overthrow the Government of TOUSSAINT.

" Our ears are momentarily pained with accounts
of shocking murders committed in the Country.—
Only a few miles from this place, a few. days3go,
whole families were cut off in the most barbaqclus
manner. I expet4 the Embargo will be taker, oft
to-morrow."
" oe-i. 29, Twelve o'Clok at Night.

" In the course of this day the streets have been
strewed with dead bodies, Avhich are suffered to
putrify without removal. Another Chief of the
Insurgents is taken ; but the danger is not so great
from without as within. The Generals have been
fired at, and one of their Aids-de-Camp was last
night killed by the side of his Chief. Last night
again the alarm was spread that the Cape was on
fire. To-day General CHRISTOPHER, with his
own hand, cut off the heads of two men, and left
them among heaps of dead in the public squares."

" 0306er 30, iBor.

" Business has commenced here, though not
without much difficulty; confidence is not restored,
and the inhabitants think themselves not safe.—
Executions of the criminals are hourly taking place,
and we as often hear pf their cruel murders ;
scarcely a White is left in the part of the Coun-
try where they marched. The plans of the Insur-
gents were well arranged : they had appointed all
their officers, and assigned to them their different
stations. This city was the first ()Ned of their in-
tended plan, and I assure you it had nearly succeed-
ed. We should have immediately fallen vietims to
their brutal rage. TOUSSAINT and DESSALINES
are now in the vicinity ;. the latter with a powerful
army. The fears of the people are by no means
subsided."

Some objection, we understand, has been,stafied
by the French Eitecutive to the free circulation of
British Journals in France. The publications of
this country are deemed to speak with too mach
freedom of the Consular Government,' and it is 'pro.
bably suspeeted might disclose circumstances as to
the political state of the Republic, which the 'Re-
-publican press dares not promulgate..
There has been, a.serious riot at Hamburgh, in
consequence of. the, master carpenters not agreeing
to an advance of wages demanded by their work.
Men. Three persons were killed. It was sup-
pressed by the guard, who arrested 60 individuals,
and put them in prison.

as any Volunteer corps in the kingdom.

half past eleven, and the House was graced by all
we know of-Fashion in town, although feeling a

and the elfeas_of Christmas Holidays in the country.

THE THEATRE.

Covent-Garden.

As You Like It, ont. of the most pleasing Comic
Works of its immortal. Author, was represented
on Saturday last at this Theatre. CooxE performed
.the part of Jaques, for the first time. He deli.
vexed, the text with energy, but was not' altogether
so successful in this character as in most of the parrs
whicla be had previously assumed. The pensive
;dignity and sarcastic humour were not sufficiently
rominent, and though .he will lose no ground by
his japer, he will certainly acquire.by it no aug.
mentation of fame.

Miss MURRAY appeared for the first time
.in
Rosalind, which she supported with more airy spi-
rit than we expe6ted, but did not reach •the high_
wrought humour, and elegant vivacity of the charac-
ter. She was most applauded for her manner of
giving the Cuckoo Song, hut in our opinion she was
least successful tin
.that, respe6i. Her deportment
towards Orlando was much.too free. To Orlando,
who supposed her"to be a` man, such liberties ought
to have appeared disktisting, and to the Audience,
who knew she was a woman, too forward, not to
use a harsher, though a more appropriate term.
Miss IVluititAy is so unexceptionable and amiable
a charaaer in private life, that we have the less he-
sitation in animadverting on so glaring and so'gross
a misconception.
BLANCHARD gave more than usual effeft to the
little part of William, and Ml's. MATTOCKS was
admirably rustic in Audrey. The part.of Celia re-
quires rather higher' manners than those of Mrs.
BEvEat.Ey, who, however, performed it with
evident good sense. KNIGur was a much better
representative of Touchstone than we expefte.d. He
gave it with broad comic effeel, but without extra-'
vagance.
The Patomime is much improved since its first
representation, and is evidently a great holiday
favourite.

The Lord Lieutenant of Ireland has intimated to
the Commissioners of the Paving and other Boards,
and to most others holding Sinecure Places in Ire-
land, that their duty in Parliament being incon-
sistent with the due attendance of their offices, it
was necessary that they should immediately resign
their seats in either the one or the other.

Mr. PAR ELL having declined to contest the le-
gislative seat of his lame..zed father, the Hon. W.
W. POLE, brother of the Marquis of Wt•L LESL EY,
has been returned without opposition for the Queen's
County, whose good opinion he has for some years
cultivated with distinguished success.

It is mentioned, that eight of the Black Regi-
ments' are to be reduced; the remaining four, toge-
ther with the ordinary number of European Troops,
being for the present. deemed competent to the ser-
vice of the Islands.
..
The conjitgal alienation which has lately taken
place in the family' •of a venerable pillar of the
Church, is said to, be one of the most aggravated
cases of the kind ever heard of. The person who
has ensnared the affedions of the wife, was the par-
ticular friend of the husband, and the opportunity
which this friendship afforded has been abused with
most detestable perfidy.
It was yesterday reported that MUNDEN, the
Aaor, had on Saturday last fallen a- vittim to the
disorder which has lately disabled him from pro_
fessionat duty. We are very glad to find that this
report is without foundation, as the loss of such an
excellent Performer would be a severe blow to the
Stage, and a great diminution of " the public stock
of harmless pleasure."

Singular Reports have of late prevailed among
the fashionable circles relative to VESTLIS the cele-
brated Dancer, who was said to he engaged at the
English Opera for this season.—He has for some
days been missed in France; and a letter from
Paris, of .the date of the 28th of December, men-
tions his having left that Cicyfour days before, for
this Country : and yet we can venture to assert,
from good authority, that he is not at present in
England.

On Tuesday an undertaking of considerable mag-
nitude was crowned with complete success, at Mr.
SMITH'S Yard, 14imehouse.hole.—The Dominica
West-Indiaman, 400 tons, was hove up out of the wa-
ter on an inclined plane:prepared for the purpose, of
iBo feet length and to- feet 'wide; at right angles,
to the surface of the water{oppoiite. The Domi-
nica had been in dock in. order to put two planks
under her bottom, one on each side of the keel, to
correspond with that on shore, _ which she was to
be hove up on. The . preparations - for this great
undertaking were grand, and shelved much skill
and judgment : at one o'clock the ropes were at-
tached to the ship, and the persons engaged for the
occasion were placed. at their, several stations. As
soot as the power applied began to al, the ship
appeared to arise out of the water, till she was high
and dry on the launch, amidst the acclamations of
upwards of 4000. persons assembled as spettators.
The ship is cut in half, and. is to be lengthened zo
feet in midihips.

On Monday two Excise Officers, attended by two
Soldiers, seized six horses and five carts, laden
with spirits and tobacco, atCawston Woodrow, and
were conveying them to Norwich, when they were
overtaken and attacked at Horseford, by upWards
of thirty armed Smugglers. One Soldier was shot
in the fitce, the other id the shoulder. Several of
the smugglers were severely wounded, and two of
them are since dead.

Last Friday afternoon, as an honest sailor was
coming out of Somerset House, where he had been
to receive some wages, he was accosted by a sharper,
who inquired of him the 'name of a person he said
was his brother on board the same ship. The sailor
knowing a person the inquirer mentioned, they en-
tered into a conversation, when -presently- a confe-
derate dropped a pocket-book. near Temple Bari
which was picked up by the, sharper, when on open-
ing it a sparkling cross was in it, with a receipt to
the amount of Sol. He chewed as it were some
disinterestedness to the
_sailor, offering him to go
equal shares in the prize. Having arrived at East
Smithfield, they went to a public-house, when
.the
'credulous sailor gave the sharper ten pounds, and
his note of hand for the remainder of his share,---,
After the rogue was gone, the sailor went to a
Silversmith, who valued the cross at los. 6d.

On Thursday the Coroner's Jury sat on the body
of an unfortunate woman, who threW herself out of
the window of her lodgings, in Greek-street, to avoid
the Bailiffs, who were about to arrest her, and brought
in their verdia accidental death. - It appeared that -A°
the deceased, on hearing the Officers .on the stairs,
had imagined she could drop from her,,back-win- , •
dow into the yard, without hurting herself, and •
by , that means make her escape. 'Accordingly-
she put herself out of the window, still hold-
ing by the frame-work, when, is supposed, she
recolleEled that she must fail into. an area behind
the house, which was much below the yard, and
therefore endeavoured to get back, screaming'all.the •

THE HA MBURGH MAIL.

HAMBURG 4, Dic. 25.

WE are informed, in a Letter from Paris, dated
the loth of December, that a person must be known
to have rendered services to the Republic (or rather
to the existing Government) before he can obtain
any situation under it. Great reduaions have been
made in several Departments of the Government,
which. have excited considerable murmurs among
the persons' dismissed. Two hundred commissa,
ries (a number' far e*ceeding the whole Department
of the War-Office under, the Monarchy) have been
discharged, as well as too from the Marine Depart-
ment, .to from the Diplomatic Office, 130 from the
Office -of the Minister of the Interior, and con.
siderable reduaions are making in the IVliiitarrand
Departmental Establishments. Although these mea,
sures may be necessary, yet they increase consider_
ably the number of the discontented, and cannot
fail also to increase their insolence. There is much
bustle among commercial men, and every one thinks
of nothing but getting money. As to those who
have acquired vast fortuneS by nefariouslneans, they
are not noticed at
.present. Should Peace be con.
eluded (which from_ the length of-the Negotiation
,induces some persons to fear either that it will not
take place, or that it will be protraaed to an inde-
finite -period) it will afford many opportunities of
acquiring wealth, at least, every one thinks and
hopes that it will produce this el:CO. The present
state Of uncertainty,--however, suspends all adivity
in commercial undertakings.
A Letter horn Belgium, of the x s th, mentions-a
very current report of a, Conspiracy at Paris, and
that Generals ATIZIEREAU,, BiRNAbOTTE, and
LAsNr, are at the-head of it, It also states,. that
one of them (but which. of the three is nut men-
tioned) has been arrested, Their cbjeft is to de-
%pose- the • First Consul, and this is assigned as the
reason of BorrAPARTE's.-delaying his departure- for
Ljons, where he has been for some time expelled.
Others say, that the exorbitant price of bread giv:.
ing some ground for apprehending popular insurrec.:
tions in the Capital, the First Consul has not thought
proper to absent himself daring 'so critical a period.
1p is certain that bread. was never before at such an
excessive price, not even' at the_ time of themove-
merits occasioned by the scarcity in 1772.
The Duke of Olt L Efors has just arrived at -Ham-,
burgh, -but the objcd of his visit is unknown. The
business of the Prince of SA.z.sa is no fonger a subject
of conversation ; it is passed over as if it had never
happened.

--The STADTHOIDER was received at Dillembourg
with inexpressible transports of joy and exultation.
Yesterday afternoon, Mons. STARK, the Swed-
ish Charge D'Affaires to the Circle of Lower Saxony,
receiredintelligence, by Estafette, from Stockholm,
of the death of the HEREDITARY PRINCE of BA_
DEN, at .4rhoga, at six o'clock in the mOriiing.
His. Highneis with his family was on. his tti it
when his carriage was overturned in a narrow road,
deemed ,dangelous at dile ceacon of the year.—
Though His 'Highness received no. contusion or
wound, yet he appeared stunned and speechless,
with other symptoms of an apoplexy and though
attended by 'the 'first Physicians, His. Highness ex-
pired the next day. His spouse. 'anti children re-
turned to. Stockholm; whither the body was likewise
sent, previous' to its being transported to Germany.
The-accident was nor occasioned by any careless-
ness. A-rboga lies .16 leagues from Stockholitz.

between :.the 18th, and 22ci we hate had here- a
