1 !I. CAWTIIORNE having alerted in a pa-
l'p.r addreffed to you, dated the syth " That after
" he had declined, without attending to any regularity in the
" poll, Roman Catholics, Paupers, Officers difqualified by
" holding places, were all allowed indifcriminately to poll, in
" order to fwell 111,1 inteetbers, and make thole believe who are
" not acquainted wi'h the circumitanees, their Majority was
" a good one, and nubi:b tbg have done to daekte."

It is not h.:re intended to enter into a critical examination of
Air. Cowthonie.. tiddlers, and bad it been circulated in Lan-
earl er es.:y, it would have been paffed in (Renee—but. as it has
been Mitered into public notice through the medium of different
N. wr,, ers, the Committee for condudliog the Elation of the
Alarqu:s of Dotr,las and Mr.Deot, think it incumbent upon
them to hate, that the Poll was continued with all regularity,
in tallies, with paper, of admilTiost, lee. in the ufual form. In
V:tr buille w hten unavoidably occurs at the dole of a poll, it is
fear ely polliblc to prc vent fume exceptionable votes from corn-
forwards; Mr. C..wilionic's hadd affertions have induced
the Committee to examine with the greateft exadtnefs, the poi
of that day •, and t h sy found that five Catholics and four
Paupers arc amorgil the number, bet leo other pe ,Rioaal ft vote of
fr•ee ; and in addition to the very large majority as
Rated in the Lancalter Paper t of the 17th inn. it is a well
Mown Let, that a great number of Freemen were actually on
the road to poll ;or the Marquis of Douglas and Mr. Dent, at
the tune the cicaion clofal. and a large proportion of the Free-
r.. 1: r, fidem in Maneheft,.rldverimolake.&e. had not left home.

HAGUE, JULY 27.—1 t is faid, that obftacles
were thrown in the way of the Prince of Orange's
projeaed tour to BruiTels, by an autho:ity which
he did not deem advifeable to refill in the prefent
juncture of affairs. Nor was the defig,n by any
:ans palateable to a part of our Government. It
might have awakened the !'mothering affeCtion of
his adherents, and given birth to difagreeable con-
fequeaces.
Our fquadron under the command of Admiral
DR WINTER, was fpoke by a Swedilh Captain
between Cape St. Vincent and Madeira, all well.
The Confuls of the Batavian Republic in Great
Britain, by a refolution of the Government of
State, are to refume their funCtions under the title
of Lommi,Foner: of Commerce ; but they are to get
no falary from this country, nor is the office to be
conferred on the firm of any commercial houfe.
It has been propofed to the Government to
place a Conful at Aberdeen in Scotland ; but as
Leith lies more foutherly than the former place,
and is better lituated, Government have thought
proper to defer this matter for the prefent. For
the general Confulate at London feveral applica.
tions have been made, but the Government has
not yet fixed on any perfon. It is however thought
that one of the partners in the houfe of VANDYKE
and Co. will be releCted. _ _

The new acquifitions of the Eleetor of Bavaria
are regulated and guaranteed by Ruffia. They
cut fill in the Bifhoprics of Augfburgh, with Saint
U rich, Freyfingen, a part of PaTati, Kempten,
Wurtzburgh, and Bamberg; the new rich imme-
diate Abbies Yrfee, Ottobeuren, Urfperg, Wet.
tenhaufen, Roggenburg, Kayferfheim, Elchingen,
Soeflingen, and Wengen ; in the eight Imperial
Towns, Ulm, Nordlingen, Bopfingen, Kauf-
beuren Rathenburg, Windfheim,
Schweinfurtb, Dunkelfbuhl. The whole of thefe
comprife 3i z fquare miles, 900,000 inhabitants,
and produce a revenue of 27c,000 florins. The
Counts PREYSING, 5601314E114, and VON WEICKS,
are appointed Elektoral Commiffaries to take pof-
feffion. The inheritance of Wiltelibach will be fe-
parated from Bavaria, and divided between Dam-
, ftadt and Baden, which are frontier neighbours.
At Wurtzburg and Bamberg, the Court is de-
, termiticd, till the evacuations of the BifhopEck
fh2.l be fantlioned by the Emperor and the Em-
pire, to fhut the gates of the City againft any Se-
cular Power that may attempt to take polleffion.

Another day's French Journals arrived this
morning. They prefent a few details refpeding
the confpiracy, real or pretended, of the Negroe
Chief ToussaiNT ; but few other articles of any
moment. Five per cents 53 fr. 6o c.
On the tgrh inflant, 15,000 Bavarian troops
arrived at Bambag and the neighbourhood, with
15 pieces of cannon, ammunition, and artillery.
Letters from Amberg of the 12th Rate, that a
Pruffian General has alto arrived there, and that
he was feen at the head quarters. There and in
feveral other towns, there are CommiWaries charg•
ed with the bufinefs of fettling the contra& for
fupplying the troops with provifions.

It is Rill afferted that the Auftrians have oc•
cupied a part of the Upper Palatinate, but nothing
pofitive is yet known on the fubjeft.
If we may credit the Official Difpatches, the
French are advancing with molt extraordinary
rapidity and fuccefs in relloring tranquillity in St.
Domingo, and conciliating the attachment of the
Blacks to their late conquerors. Every thing in
the form of organifed hoffility has ceafed ; and
there is at prefent every appearance of a cordial
reconciliation. The publication of the Concordat
is flid, above every other confideration, to have
operated this important revolution in the feelings
of the Negroes. Admitting this atfertion to be
corral, one cannot help expreffiug aftoniffiment

malignant and detectable yaffion!, and, wherever
it fuits their conveniency, defcribing them as
tirongly alive to moral and religions impreffion,
and with gratitude fubmitting to the humane pre-
cepts of the Chrithan religion. Thefe abfurdities
cannot be long maintained. The moft vain-glo-
rious of European philofophers can expert only
to be laughed at by continuing to deny to the
Blacks the common attributes, privileges, and
rights of human beings.

PROCLAMATION.
THE COMMANDER IN CHIEF, CAPTAIN.GENERAL OF
THE COLONY OF SAINT DOMINGO, TO THE INHABI-
TANTS OF SAINT DOMINGO.
Mad-quarters, Cape, June la.

ClTlZENS—Toussatar was confpiring : you
will judge of it by a letter herewith annexed, and
addreffed to Citizen Fotyratme. I could not en-
danger the tranquility of the Colony. I have
canted him to be arrefted, put on board (hip, and
fent to France, where be will give an account of
his condo& to the French Government. In an-
other letter addreffed to C. Fon ram t he launches
out into inve6tives againft General CHRISTOPHE,
and complains that General DESSALINES aban-
doned him. He forbade SYLLA to lay down his
arms, and the working negroes to cultivate any
other plantations than thofe which fupplied them
with provifions. He had fent one of his accom-
plices to General DESSALINES, to induce him not
to be fincere in his fubmifflon. General DESSA.
LINES declared fo to me. He depended much at
Saint Marc on Maaisser ; he has been arrefted.
I was incenfed againft this great criminal, and
I ordered the Generals of Divifion of the Army
to compel by force all the cultivators who are tun
under arms in the mountains to return. The cul-
tivators are not the ntoft culpable, it is thole who
mifled them. Every Commandant therefore of
the National Guard, every Officer and every Pro-
prietor who (hall be found in an armed body, Mall
be immediately (hot. In regard to the Commune
of Ennery I have ordered it to be immediately dif-
armed, for having been fo long in fubmitting.

General BRUNET will enure this order to be int-
inediately executed.
The Chief of the Staff will canfe the prefent
order to he printed, publifhed, and polled up,
with the letter of General Toussatmr, and (hall
fend it immediately to the Army and throughout
the whole Colony. (Signed) LECLERC.

SAINT TO CITIZEN FONTAINE.

Head-(arten, I.ouvenure, May 26.

You fend me no news, Citizen.—Endeavour to
remain at the Cape as long as you can. General
Leceattc is faid to be at la Tortue, in bad health,
of which you mutt take great care to inform me.
It will be neceffary to provide .. . for the a ... .
(ammunition perhaps) of la Nouvelle. In regard
to the flour which we are in want of, as well as the
other, it mutt not be fent without paging la Saona,
that the point may be known where they can be
depofited in fafety. If you fee the Commander in
Chief, tell him that the cultivators will no longer
obey me. They with to make them work at Heti-
court, which the overfeer ought no to do. I re-
quell to know whether any one near the Commit.
der in Chief can be gained over, in order to render
D flee ; he would be very ufeful to me by
his credit at la Nouvelle and elfewhere. Tell GEM.
G e be ea e that he ought not to quit le Borgne, where
the cultivators mutt not work. Write to me at
the plantation Najac. (Signed)
