FRANKFORT, OCTOBER 6.

The Gazette of this city having announced, on the
13th of September that the inhabitants of Dresden
had sent a deputation to Congress to solicit the re-
establishment of the kingdom of Saxony, this asser-
tion has been contradicted in the same journal, by a
formal declaration of the- Magistrates of Dresden,
elated September 29.

BEttl.ll4, SEP I'EMBER 30.
It nqw appears ceitain that the Prince Royal of
Sweden will not attend the Congress of Vienna. He
bas not received any letter of invitation from the
Emperor of Austria, who addressed such to all the
Sovereigns and Prir,ces, and particnlarly to the King
of Den-nark. This circumstance, it is said,- Ores
great uticAsiiwss to tile Prince Royal. It is recollec.;
ted that he WAS very colaly received by the Emperor
of Austria at Paris, and it is also known that many
of thO Powers of Europe feel a particular merest for
the son of Guitavus, their relative, a young Prince who
tiisplays a happy union of the best and the niost royal

qualities. It is farther remarked, that the King of '
Denmark is treated with distinction by the Allied
Sovereigns. The Prince Royal of Sweden having,
in the month of July last, demanded the consent ot
England to his seizing Copenhagen and Zealand,
undo. the pretext ot punishing the King of Denmark
for his equivocal conduct since the peace, the Court
of London peremptorily rejected this proposal, de-
claring that it would protect Denmark in her present
possessions. The Court of Prussia and that of Rus-
sia likewise testify at this moment a great friendship
for the King of Denmark.
PARIS, OCTOBER IR
We are assured that the King has jest appointed a
Commission for the purpose of devising means to re-
lieve his faithful subjects, who have lost all in his ser-
vice.

-On Saturday next, the 15th of October, an anni-
versary service will be celebrated in the chapel of the
Thuilleries, for the repose of the soul of Marie An-
toinette, late Queen of France. M. de Ventimille,
former Bishop of Carcassonne, will officiate ponti-
fically. The Royal Family, and all the Court, will
be present.
Yesterday the Chamber of Deputies, in a secret
committee, voted, by way of amendment, several
a4ditions to the dotation of the Crown, such as the
hotels Monaco and Menus, the castle of Villiers, the
Elysee-D;urbon, &c. In the same Sitting the dis-
cussionon the responsibility of Ministers was com-

menced.
We learn from Rastadt, that the districts adjoin-
ing to Kehl continue to be obliged to maintain the
Austrian garrison in that fort. It is believed that it
will be declared an imperial fort, belonging to all
Germany.
One of our journals contains some ridiculous infor.
mation with regard to the Crown Prince of Sweden.
The author of the article pretends that he received
no invitation to the Congress. We can assert, how-
ever,.. that this is .not true. We have before us the
Austrian Observer of the 24th of September, s demi-
official journal, edited by Mr. Pelat, private secretary
of Prince Metternich ; and we there 'cad under the
head of Vienna, "the Crown Prince of Sweden is ex-
pected here to-morrow." It would appear, in truth,
that the affairs of Norway still detain that Prince ;
but it should be remarked, that the Emperor of Aus-
tria decorated him last year, after the battle of Den.
newitz, with the ribbon of the Order of Maria The-
resa ; and that in August last, when the King of
Prussia made his solemn entrance into Berlin, a trans-
parency was exhibited of the portrait of the Crown
Prince, by the side of the Sovereigns of Austria and
Russia.
It is just not to forget those who do not wish to be
forgotten. When a man, like M. Miliee, publishes
to-day libels under his name, it is necessary to recal
the idea which naturally attaches itself to this name:.
this is judging the wilting by the author. We remind
the public, therefore, that M. Mehee was Secretary
of that Municipality of September, 1792, who came,'
horrible miisacres to be perpetrutzd in all the prisons
of Paris, and that in this quality he signed the two
fallowing orders to assassins:
‘1 In the name of the People,
" Comrades—You are ordered to sit In judgment on all the
prisoners of the Abbey, without distinction, with the exceptlou
of the Abbe Lenient, whom you will put into a secure place.

PAMPELUNA, SEPT. 28.
For the last two days we have been in the greatest
state of alarm. General Mina, at the head of four
battalions of his troops, has attempted a coup-de-main
to gain possession of this city, in which there were
persons who had a secret understanding with him.
Several of his officers, however, having shewn repug-
nance tostzecute the enterprise, with which it would
appear they haduot been previously made acquainted,
Mina was compelled to reliquith the attempt, and to
retire, followed by those who remained faithful to
him. Some individuals of his staff were killed or
wounded. We are assured that he took the direction
of Puente la Reyna, where there has been a great fer-
mentation among his soldiers, of whom a part have
quitted his standard.
The gates of our city are shut ; none but couriers,
who are escorted by considerable detachments, are
permitted to go out. We expect every moment rein-
forcements, which our Viceroy 11 is sent for.
It is said that Mina wisheJ to get possession of the
citadel ; but his ulterior projects are unknown. The
prisons are filling with pet sons charged with being his
coadjutors. The ill-inclined circulate a report that
Mina's conspiracy is only one branch of a plan which
embraces Arragcn and Catalonia, and extends Even
to Cadiz ; we trust that this is a gross exaggeration.
There are doubtless many discontented people in the
different provinces; but the mass of that nation are
faithful to their Sovereign, of which they have given
unequivocal proofs.
Cotirlt Espeleta, our Viceroy, and General Elio,
were bora in the kingdom of Navarre ; General Ar-
rizaga is also our countryman. It is true the Viceroy
is very old, but the two latter are in a *inky to do
their country service. They are devoted to his Majesty
and enjoy great consideration, thas balancing the itt-
fluence of Mina.
The circumstance of the latter being so much an
object of terror to us, is the more embarrassing, as
our Ambassador at Paris, M. Labrador, in a letter to
the Journal de Paris of the 26th of July last, covered
him with praises, and boasted of his antique virtues
and glorious deeds. Even at this moment Mina's
portrait is sold at Madrid, and figures in the collec-
tion of those of the patriots who so powerfully contri-
buted to the defence of the good cause.
ST. JEAN DE LUZ, OCTOBER 6.
Mina is said to be at the bead of a corps of between
five and six thousand men. It is aided, that he is in
possession of the fortress Jaca, which he had previously
provisioned for one year. Goris, one of his Clii9fs of
Battalion, is said to have been arrested by his °an
• troops, and conducted to Pampeluna, where he had
• been shot. Many of his officers, who had been de-
tained at Pampeluna on suspicion of their attachment
• to him, have escaped from thence, and joined .their
Commander.
Changes in the Spanish Ministry are talked of.

AMERICAN PAPERS. •

We extract the following from a Baltimore Paper
of August 29. The incidents it relates were precisely
similar to those which befel Falstaff, Bardoljsl;, tyym,
and Pistol, in the campaigns in France, as re-corded
by SHAKESPEARE:
" After the enemy bad passed Marlborough, eighteen miles
from Washington, Robert Bowie, Esq. formerly Governor of
this State, came into the town and proposed to make prisoners
of some of the stragglers, who were following the main body on
the retreat ; this proposal was assented to by Doctor Beans, who,
resided in the town, and although several gentlemen who were pre-
sent urged the dangerous consequences that might result from
it while the enemy were so near, they proceeded to put their
plan into execution, and actually took six prisoners which they
sent to Queen Anne, about nine miles distant. The consequences
of this officious proceeding proved very unpleasant.
" About one o'clock next morning a party of British horse-
men arrived is the town, took Doctor Beans and two other gen-
tlemen, who were in bed in bis house, mounted them on horses
without saddles, and conveyed them as prisoners to the British
camp.

6, They also informed the inhabitants that unless the air pri-
soners were delivered at their camp by twelve o'clock that day,
the town should be bunked. The prisoners were immediately
sent fur and conducted to camp°, whither Governor Bowie was
arrested end detained as a prisoner, and a foraging party of two
hundred ordered to proceed to his farm, about three miles distant,
which no doubt they have stripped of every valuable moveable.
Mr. Bowie, Dr. Beans, and his two friends,-were still detained
when our informant left Marlborough."
FROM THE NEWBURY PORT HERALD.
We have heard the following anecdote related, for
the correctness of which we cannot vouch :
When General M'Clure gave orders to have the
village of Schlosser (in the Canadian territory,) de.
stroyed, the execution of that order devolved on Major
—, a high minded, noble spirited youth—he pro-
ceeded with a small party to burn the village. There
was not a man capable of bearing arms in the place,
and the women had a given time allowed them to se-
cure their effects. One woman remonstrated with the
Major, saying she was alone, her husband being in
the armt, and begged that her house might be spared,
it being their all. The officer replied, that the duty
was a painful one, but his orders were imperative,
and he could not grant her request—she then replied,
"Sir, you know the honour of a soldier, I am a sol-
dier's wife, and I give you my word and honour that
if you will allow me two hours longer to remove my
furniture, I will burn it myself." She kept her word,
for before the expiration of the time, the Major saw
the house wrapt in flames, it being the last in the
village. Major then repaired to the head•quar.
ten of General M'Clure, and informed him he had
executed the order committed to him, and indignant iy
added, at the same time handing him his
sion, 66 Sir you will please to receive my commissio,l
—I did not enter the army to distress unoffeading
dividuals, and burn defenceless villages. The Act I
have just performed is the most abhorrent of my life ;
I can serve no longer."
FROM THE BUFFALOE GAZETTE, JUNE 14.
COLONEL CHAPIN TO THE PUBLIC.
44 The distressing scenes exhibited on the Niagara
frontier last fall and winter, having excited many
painful sensations and anxious inquiries for the causes
which led to those disgraceful dis.►sters,•have induced
me to lay before the public, some of the most conspi.
cuous actors of those base exploits.
66 While the American regular forces continued at
Fort George, nothing occurred to affect our security,
till that strange phenomenon, George M'Clure, 2p.,
peered. He, with much pomp and parade, however,
kept 6 out of harm's way,' by riding up and down
on the east side of the streights of Niagara, till I had,
with a small force of volunteers, militia, and Indians,
routed the enemy from his encampment at the Four-
mile Creek. Then this mighty man crossed the river
with the wind of a Hull or Smyth, aided by the foetid
stench of J. C. S. who burst-forth with terror and
rage upon the defenceless inhabitants of Canada.—
These terrible heroes, however, very cautiously avoid.
ed any engagement with the enemy. They conceived
it sufficient for them to war with women and chil-
dren, to lay waste their dwellings ; to 6 burn up the
damn'd rascals,' was their favourite maxim. Their
march from Beaver Dam to Queenstown, will long be
remembered by the distressed victims of that march.
In this march, ,property of almost every description
was plundered, and buildings burnt under their own
view. This, however, is a mere prelude to the tra-
gedy he was afterwards destined to act..
64 The ill fated town of Newark was burnt under
his orders, on the night of the 10th of December;
1813. Here was exhibited a scene of distress, which
language would be inadequate to express; women
and children were turned out of doors, in a cold Ind
stormy night; the cries of infants, the decrepitude of
age, the debility of sickness, had no impression upon
this monster in human shape ; they were consigned to
the great house, whose canopy was the Heavens, and
whose walls were as boundless as the wide world.
" In the destruction of this town, the vulture
M'Clure was aided ky the most active exertions of
Joseph Willcocks, that * • • • • who had for a
number of years resided in this pleasant village, and
had been patronised in it far beyond his merits ; and
at a time when it became his duty as a man of justice
and as a subject of his Majesty, whose government
he had so often sworn to protect and defend, he like a
cowardly sycophant, deserted the cause of his coun-
try, and actually led a banditti through the town on
that fatal night, setting fire to his neighbours' dwel-
lings, and damning every American, applying the
epithet of tory to all who disapproved of the flagrant
act of barbarity. It will be recollected, that this town
was burnt at a time when the British forces were not
in any considerable force within the distance of SO
miles.
46 The General next selected the American side 61
the Niagara for the theatre of future operations. He
took up his quarter' at Buffalo,. A small force of
about '2OU regulars was called from Canandaigua,
which we should have supposed ought to have been
sent for the protection of Fort Niagara, as that place
was menaced by the enemy. Instead of this, the
General ordered them to remain at Buflaloe. Fort
Niagara was taken on the morning of vie 19th De-
cember, 1813. The day previous, the General was
informed by a citizen, who had made his escape from
Canada, that an attack would be made on Fort Nia-
gara at the time it was. Here then is something
ery remarkable in the conduct of the General; in.

stead of dispatching an express with this very imp ~r.
tant intelligence immediately, he omitted it, if not al.
together,till it was ton late for the express to nde th,re.
.4 A soon as the capture of that post was knw+r.
at Buffaloe, the General removed himself and men
from I)uffaloe to the Cold Springs, a distance of tv. J
miles. This movement appeared to be made in order
that the redoubtable General should have time to
retreat, without hearing the whistling of British
balls, which, by the bye, we suppose would hays
been very unpleasant to the General's organs of
ing, as he was totally unused to such sounds. Hne
he remained a few days ; but finding from intelli•
gence which he received from Canada, that the
enemy were preparing to attack Buffaloe, he took tip
his line of march to Batavia, a distance of 40
no doubt conceiving that a place of greater :alert.
as there he could not hear the report of the ene.,Wa
guns. From Batavia, I was told, that 1-‘e madehisretreat
good to his residence in Steuben county, baring Co.
vered himself and his associates with lansel; of di;.
grace.
As to his assertions, that be was fired upon by.
the men, who, he said, were under my command, I
believe it to be perfectly false. The inhabitants of
Buffaloe all felt deeply interested in the protection of
that place, apprehending full well the consequences
' of an invasion of it by an enemy whose char: rte}-
' heretofore had been marked with acts of outrav Led
`cruelty, and who now was stimulated to the most ell-
. perate measures of retaliation, by the conduct of
M'Clure in burning of Newark. They repeatedly
requested him to afford the necessary protection.—
The public are already acquainted with the protection
• he afforded. The ruins of the Niagara frontier ; the
tears of the widaw, and the cries of orphan chilereo,
still remain as a proof of the cowardice and vill tiny
of this man and his associates.

" As it regards myself and the command I held
in the army while it was under M'Clure, I think pro-
per to state the principal reason which induced me
to resign. After having been repeatedly exposed to
much danger by order of M'Clure, especially wires he
ordered me to the Thirty Mile Creek, in Upper Ca.
nada ;and while I remaiald there under his order
with abuut forty men, he said in presence of Mr.
Curtis, whose affidavit I produced—' that he regret.
ted 1 had not been taken by the enemy, that he v.reard
had been ; that he hoped the damned rascal world
be.' Now the public will observe, that I was atria
under the orders of M'Clure, and had taken a sm.
rnanding position at that place. He ordered Culencl
Hopkins, to command the men in the rear of me, who
weic twelve miles fmm that pl.ce. I was ordered
to remain on the Forty, till I vs as reinforced ; but.
contrary to the assurances which MiC,ure had given
me, Colonel Hopkins was ordered to remain twelve
miles in tic real of au.,

To-day we are enabled to lay before our Readers
sv!ime further extracts from the files of American Pd..
pelt, of which we have been for some days exclu-
sively in possession We are desirous of calling the
attention of the admirers of the American Goverm
anent, wherever they are, to the detailed descriptions
which we have given, from the elegant pens of Amt.
bean Historiographers, of the conflagrations wu ;
which they visited the helpless inhabitants of Canada.
Those who have regarded the setting five to the pub-
lic buildings of Washington as an act worthy of Gen-
seri,- and Attila ! will, doubtless, after perusing this
!nide, make the arnende honorable,-and transfer these
polite iipFellations to the American Commanders in
Canada.
The British General who commanded the unfora
tunste attack on Fort Erie, in his official dispatch, has,
with a generous candour, but perhaps too hastily, aci.
quitted the Americans of having wilfully sprung the
mine which terminated the earthly career of so many
brave British troops on that distressing occasion. The
Americans, on the contrary, lay claim to the honour
01 practising that ruse de guerre themselves: we do ndt
*man to enter into the question whether it was or was
not justifiable : it procured them, however, but
barren and unprofitable advantage.
The following is the article in which the Ameri-
cans claim the explosion at Fort Erie, as a stratagem
of war :

Saturday evening the PRINCE RiG2NT left town
on a visit to Viscount MILBOVItNit at Brocket Hall,
Hertfordshire.
Mr. eIIOKER is gene to Paris to enquire, by special
authority from the Admiralty and the Cabinet, into
the actual facts touching the alleged undue facilitire
given tb American privateers in the ports of France $
to make the representations or remonstrances to the
French Government which the nature of the case,
ascertained by strict scrutiny, may require; and to
come to an understanding and arrangement which
may prevent any dispute from arising between the
two nations.and their Sovereigns.
The expected dispatches from America have not
yet reached Government ; but the fact of the reduc-
tion of Plattsburgh is placed beyond all doubt by the
receipt of letters from Nova Scotia, which not only
mention the success which had attended the advance
of the army tinder Sir Gaottoe Pnevost, but even
specify the toss sustained by our troops on that occa-
sion. We rejoice to say it was trifling, compared to
the importance of the service. Of the Officers, we
have to lament the death of Lieutenant-Colonel WELL
Luirsturt, and of Captain Cftoss. Aid-de-Camp to Ge.
neral Dr Rorrestauao. There were not more than
six privates killed, and an equal number wounded.
The advance of a powerful British force in that goa-
t:sr, will facilitate an important operation of the cams
paigni—the attack by land upon Sackett's Harbour,
with the whole American fleet under ChauNcry.—
The private advice: also mention, that three thousand
men from Bourdeaux were at Kingston, under Ge.
iieral Kerne, to co-operate on the side of the Lake in
such an enterprise.
Tile Cork Paper of the Sth, refers to the capture of
Plattsburg. l'he Carlberry, from Curasoa, a very
valuable vessel, bound to Lond,in, was captured by
the Chasseur, American privateer, and recaptured by
the Castilian sloop of war, which sent her into Cove,
where she arrived that. morning. The crew, Anse►

Extract of a letter from an Officer of the SPFNCER
dated Penobscot Bay, September 7 :—We arrived
from Boston three days since, to join the expedition
against some places up the Penobscot River. When
the force was landed, about 600 soldiers and sailors
stormed a battery of eight guns within gun-shot of
another batter y composed of the guns of the American
frigate Adams, which we carried at the point of the
sword. When *e first landed, a very thick fog pre-
vailed, and we advenced in it, unconsciously, nearly
up to the mouth of a cannon, which was placed in
the tniddle of the road, and which the enemy instantly
fired, killing one man and wounding five. We in-
study returned the fire by discharging three pieces
of artillery,- and rushed on them with the bayonet be•
fore they were enabled to re-load. The Americans
instantly ran from the Charge, while we closely pur-
sued, slaying them on every side. You w:11 judge
what dastardly cowards they must be, to permit us
so soon to put them to the rout, when they possessed
heights which commanded the whole river. But
- Yankee boassing will never withstand British intrepi-
dity. The Adams frigate-was burnt by the enemy
