New Volta, Die. t 3 Saturday arrived at
Philadelphia, the fhip Fanny, Captain LAOIS, in 91
days from the Ilk of France. Captain L. inform.,
that they had not heard of the war between England
and France at the time of his failing. Two Fiend'
(hips of the line, and fix or (even frigates, arrived
there fume days before he failed, which, it was Paid,
came from France with a body of troops, to take
poffeGion of Pondicherry, agreeably to the Treaty of
Amiens; but on their arrival, the Bririfh refufed
to give them poffeffion : that, after lying in the road
fome time waiting ordecs, they received diipatches
from the Governor of the Mauritius, on which they
cut their cables, and returned co the Me of FfilllCC,
where they landed two thoufand French troops, and
%vete, on the loth of September, waiting further
orders from France.

This account is corroborated by Captain BAR-row,
of the lbip John, arrived at Salem. He Rates the
fquadron to cumprife the Marengo, of go guns, and
five frigates ; and adds, that while lying at Pondi-
cherry, the Admiral received a slifpatch from the
Governor of the lfle of France, announcing the ar-
rival of a corvette front France, with orders, that
"if they had not already taken poireffion of Pondi-
cherry, to quit the place immediatcly, and to make
the bell of their way to the Maiwitiqs...

We are informed that the (now in Meadfville
(Penn.) was IC inches deep on the loth intlans, and it
is thought will probably lie on ,the ground until
fpring.
On llitirfday night, the t7th nit. fnnw fell in
Walpole (N. H.) between three and four inches in
depth, on which it had been tolerably running with
fleighs till the 25th.
Capt STIMI.SON, arrived at Salem from Surinam,
►eft there Oftober 14, and info, nis, that foreigners
on board of American velfels, and Americans w:•hout
proteftions; were preffed Is) the Dutch Commodore
He adds, that the Englilb were daily expelled, and
meafures of defence were diligently making, ►ut
there were few mcn to oppofe them.
By the Hoop Sally, from St. Domingo, we learn
that the profpeEts of the French in that qaarter had
brightened. The troops from Jacquemel, which
was evacuated, had arrived in the city of St. Do-
mingo, and they expelled to maintain themfelves
there. Several veffels had arrived with provillons ;
floor was felling at tight and nine dollars ; beef, pork,
and provifions in general, proportionably cheap.
The French (chooner Telegraph, which has been
cruizirg about Charleflon for lonic time, lately cap-
tured a Bermudian floop, Captain BOYD, off Savan-
nah Bar, and fent her under a prize matter and crew
to the Welt Indies.

By the late(t information from Guadaloupe,
brought by the John Vining yeflerday, it appears that
the privateers from that ifland are very numerous,
and every day fending in mixes. Two days before
the failed, a French pi ivateer of 16 guns and 16c,
men, brought in an Englith Guineakian, with IN
guns and 45 men, which The had captured after a
t aetion, in which the Captain of the Guineaman
z;:c1 fcvcral t.f his men were killed t—tbe privateer
was confider ahly damaged.
WAIHIN . a, Dec. 5.--Capt. Rouses arrived at
this place on Friday lilt. He has brought the im-
portant intelligence of the red.. .ration of peace between
the United States and ...e EPIPLIOR of Moaocco.—
Thiring the nerre •a, our frigates were moored in
battle arra-. joo yards of Tangiers, for the
