HOLLAND.

HAGUE, OCTOUR B.—Although Tatter eaao,
by the contributions be has extorted from moll of
the Continental States, has become one of the richell
individuals in Europe ; his avarice and cupidity are
as unbounded as his immorality and duplicity. At
every change of out government, fines he became
a revolutionary miniver, he has required tome fume
of money from thole perfons whom his intrigues and
influence have given us as chiefs ; and afterwards
forced them, once in the year, regularly, to make
'him patriotic donations for leave to continue in
place. Our rulers, as well as thofe of Italy and
Switzerland, and the blinifiers of Spain, Portugal,
Aultria. Proffitt, and Bavaria, who all owe to him,
more or Ws, their appointments, are. therefore, not
only his tools. but his tributaries. This organized
Plunder* Om fliould think. would be fufficient for a
matt of decayed coneimtion, without a family, and
with wealth. the amount of which he dares not avow;
. be talon. however, care to let no opportunity efcape
of accumulating new treafures, even though the eon-
reqiience of the total ruin of thole people and Rates,
already beggared by him. This has lately been the
cafe in our unfortunate country,. where a moll
libannted attempt has been dikovered to plunder us
of Su millions of florins, and to augment a burthen
we already are nnable'to bear, with this great fun,
for a wretched nation of hardly two millions of peo-
pk, ezpokd for near ten years to the all-devouring
French voracity, and to the alt.deffroTing Gallic
fraternity. A. the mifcarriage of this financial plot
is the principal reafon why T has per.
loaded Bo &&&&& TA to order another political FM-
' lotion in our government and cooßitution ; Mall
relate to you all the circumftances which have come
to my knowledge.
• By the peace of Amiens, it was agreed between
Trance and Holland, that the Prince of Ottawas
could receive no indemnity for his lofres from the
Baconian Republic ; and England has Gone, by a
funs of ready money, and hal an annuity off 6,0001.
reworded this Prince for his adherence to the Britifh
encore, fo nearly conneeed with his own rank and in-
terse. In the treaty of cefficia and indemnity be-
tween France and Proffia. concluded on the 23c1 of
May tilos, it was mentioned that, at a future pc-
rlod, the demands of the Prince of °enact in
Holland fhould be liquidated. No Conner had Eng-
land seed in the above mentioned liberal manner,
sad, of courfe. nothing more could be expected
from that quarter, than Tat && , who, by ano-
ther treaty of Ratifbon, had indemnified the Hoofs
of Orange for all its claims with Fulda. fcc. hinted
to Tome perfon about him. that by tome. arms:most
with him, the Prince of Oaaaaa may am obtain ano-
ther pecuniary indemnity Irons this country. Hol- '
land, as well as France, has its unprincipled in-
triguers. TAERRTILAND'S propofal was therefore lif-
tened to, and every thing fettled between the ma-
rauding parties. almolt without the content of the
Prince. at leaf* without his privacy, as to the diati •
hullos of the fpoils, becaufe he and his agents ailed
hos fstle,;_ while thofe who fupported his demands,
meditated, and had already agreed on the manner in
which they intended to divide and pocket the money
allowed him by the Batavian Republic, for which
Tax AAAAAA D was in return to fecularift. fume Ger-
man Abbeys in favour of the Hoofe of Orange.—
The French ArnhafTador, de SISIONVILLE, at this I
place, was, therefore, let into the fecrct, and fupport-
ed, in the name of hi. Emperor, the payment of the
rums required for the Prince of Owens ; and feve.

mot. between our Secretary of State H u maw,
and our General Treahrer, Di VAS VAN STSIN•

tniffaries. the treaty was form agreed to ; and, after
being approved by our Diretory, the mere formafity
of the ratiFeation of the Legiflative Body was want-

From former molar:lions between him and
SCPIII4,I INCA, TALLSYILAND was acquainted
with the sfiftateryiedno of this revolutionary knight,
and, therefore, deftred to carry this point without
his interference. By Come manner or other, he ob-
tained, however, information of ail the particulars of
this affair; and by his influence, and by that
of is friends, all equally difappointed in not being
of the pillaging party, the Legiflative Body refuted
its ratificaton, notwitheanding the threats of Ad-
miral VSEHRUb who arrived on impede from
France to back Tattev Sinostritts and Co.
for which he was to have hi. due. When the deter-
mination of the Batavian Legiflators was known to
T.S,Moavttsl received ineruftions, in
the name of his Sovereign, to deliver to the Direc-
tory a revere Philippic, announcing both their own
and the Lcgtflator. deftration ; BONAPARTE having
determined upon a government more firm and cow

The capture of the three Spanifh Frigates, of
which we have already had occafion to (peak, has,
we are informed, been followed up with other aes
on the part of our Government, fymptomatic of im•
mediate war. The Spanilh brig St. Jofeph, laden
with linen and wheat ; and the Span& (hip Efpe-
ranza, in ballaß, were takes polreffion of at Cowes
on Tburfday, by order of Admiral MOUTAGua ; and
it is now Rated, that a general embargo has taken
place on all the Spacial (hips in oar ports.—
Should this intelligence prove correft, we think the
matters in difpute between the tvrn Governments
mua have proceeded to fuel lengths, as toleaye but
ftnall hopes of an adjußment of them being posble
in the indent circumaances.

A Dutch Paper of the date of Monday lan, Men-
lions the expelled arrival of the Emperor of the
French in the Batavian territory, before he returns
to-Paris. The left accounts left him at Luxemburg!), ,
rotwithilanding what has been raid, an embargo
may "le confidered as having agually tam place in Hal-
/an&
The Alexandria, and upwards of twenty other
vel:ls, which had cleared out for Embden and other
ports, are detained in the Testi, under fufpicion of
being really dellined for this country. It was gene-
rally fuppofed that the Esersema would not declare
an abfolute embargo, the prelude we conceive to con-
&cation, unal he had got the ports of Holland filled
with weals, and therefore the orders for the prefent
are only to detain fuch as are fufpoSted until further
Wits. All veffels arriving in the ports of the Bata-
vian Republic are examined by what are called Ad-
miralty fhips ; and thofe on hoard of which Englilh
produce is found, are detained, and not fuffered to
land their freight until the Government !Call have
come to a final determination on the fubjea. Thefe
extraordinary ;matures were firß adopted on the 9th
int. The fir& two velfels which were feized on
their arrival from an Englifh•port, were thofe cons-
' mandad by Cava's) Wist.ars and Capt. Scam.; the
laf was feized at Amfterdam.
. .

A garrifon of two hundred men was, at the date
of the laft letters from Holland, hourly expeaed to
arrive at Catwyck, for the purpofe of enforcing that
regulations. Neutral veffcls in ballaa are (till allowed
to enter the Dutch ports unmoleaed.
One, and only one, more arrival from Holland
may be expeCted for force time, by which we hope
to receive arnpl: intelligence refpating the changes
which the conliitution of that devoted country is
likely to undergo, as well as the dettrmination that
(hall be adopted with regard to her commercial in-
tercourfe. with England, Cr, indeed, with any other
part of the world.
In addition to the intelligence of the fuppreflion of
the Leyden coedit, which we announced tome days
ago, we have to add, that The Kertharti, a
Paper publifhtd at Sciiiedam, has been alto fuppreffed
by the order of the French Commander in Holland.
They were both publithed, for the (aft time, on the
6th of this month.

the preceding day with the Minifter of Foreign Af-
fairs, Prince Czsitrottv:xt. His departure was
notified to the diplomatic body refident there, in a
circular note. The French Commercial Agent, Las-
s rs. ho • :ver, Hill continues at Peterfburgh. The
Papal Nord° has, at length, it is laid, received or-
ders to quit that city.
A letter lions the Banks of the Viftula of Septem-

lations between France and Raffia have now ceafed
by the departure of the refpetßive legations from St.
Peterlburgh and Paris: it is however und:rftood
that this will not be followed by a war, without the
intervention of Come new circumflances."
The fame thing is afferted in a letter from Ham-
burgh of the 9th inft. It is there find, " Hopes are
entertained that the diplomatic relations between
France and the Court of Raffia will &wily be re-
thaccd, as a ccrtrin great power, whofe pacific fenti-
menu are known to all Europe, will contribute all in

Parmisavarsn, Sara. 19.—We are now involved
in a war with the Perfians. Refpeaing the mire of
the war, and the battles which have taken place, our
Court Gazette of this day gives the following infix-
Marion :
The Commander in Chief in Grufia G eorgia), the
General of Infantry, Prince Zi ;isnot, received a letter
from the Viaier ofthe Perfian Baba Khan, filled with
threats,in which he demanded that the Ruffian troops
fliould evacuate Grufia. and informed bins that the
fon of Baba Khan was already no his marsh to
Grufia with a numerous body of troops, which would
be followed by Baba Khan hirofelf, with a more no-
memos army. prime Zizianof immediately returned
a Ihort anfver.in which be Rated that he was ready to
receive him. But as the Ruffian troops are net acan
touted to wait for the arrival of the tummy, the Com-
mander in Chief congaed a detachment ofatmo men,
anddifpatched twodays befare theCattmafiaareslipent
of grenadiers, that they might pars with son cor.ve-
calence the mountainous dißrlas and moraffes, which
feparate Grufta from the province of Envy; after
giving orders to their Commander, Major Osaaral
TturaCHNOIP, to form a junaion in the Scharagel-
fkoi Steppe with two battalions of the regiment of
Teffis, which had marched for that place, and to
wait there for his "'Yield. The Commander in
Chief fet out hitafelf on the id of jalle, with the re-
mainder of the troops ; and no the lath joined in
the Steppe, the troops abovomentioned. He was'
here informed by Major General 'Freeman,,
that on the tout of that month he had fallen in with
a detachment of "hove 4000 Perfians, whom he at-
, tacked and pat to flight. In this anion a hundred
of the enemy were killed, and about the fame num-
ber taken prifoners. A great many cattle alto bad
fallen into his hands, and he relkued and let at Meer
tv aoo families, fugitives from Erivan, whom the''
Perfians were carrying off by violence.
" On the 15th the Ruffian troops again broke uP
their camp, and on the tgth arrived at the Armenian
monaftery named Etfchtniadfin, the very eztenfive
gardens of which were befet by the Perfians. Here
the enemy were driven back to the walls of the Ma
nailery by the Kozaks and Grafians. that morning
that is, on the loth, at daybreak, numerous bodies
of Perfians were obferved on the heights behind the
monallery ; Come minutes after feveral columns of the
enemy'. cavalry appeared with an intention, as fop
poled, of attacking the Ruffian camp, and who di-
vided themfetves in order to furround it. The brave
refinance, however, which they ezperienced,and the
ftrong and well direflcd fire of our artillery, made a
great havoc among the enemy. and defeated their
defign. At length, after an °hairs:tie engagement.
which Lifted ten hours, the Perfians were obliged to
retreat in great confulion. In this anion our lofs
was trifling, while that of the enemy molt have been
very great, but nothing certain can yet be known in
this refpett, as the Perfians, according to the princi-
ples of their religion, ule every exertion not to leave
any of their dead or wounded on the field of battle,
and in thi, they have hitherto fueceeded, as we had
not a fufficient number of cavalry to purfire them.
" On the 101, the day after the battle, no Per-
flans were to be feen.
On the 2:d and 23d, a corps o; the enemy's ca-
valry, confoting of tr,coc, made an attempt to at-
tack' our camp, but difcouraged by the refute of the
firft battle, they did not venture to approach nearer
than within cannon (hut, and returned without being
able to accomplith their defign. On the 24th, as
they found that their plan was defeated, they left the
Ruffians at refl.
.1 On the 25th, the Commander in Chief pufhed
forwards twelve verfls with the whole army to the
village of S....ragarti, on the River Sanga, fituated
At the &fiance of (even vet Its from the town of rivan

foldiers who had a (hare in both thefe battle., bat he
praifes in particular the artillery officers, a, the
vinery on the fourth day was o...sing c!.0...1y to

66 At break of day on the 3oth of .lane, the Rut.
Gan troops croffed the river Sanga at the village Ka-
vagera, where a barricado of waggons bad been
left formed themfelves in order of battle into fon
fquares, the chaffeur fquare making the advanced
guard, and in that manner marched forwards to at-
tack the Per Gan camp, which was eftabliffied near
the village Kanagira, feven verfts behind the forma
of Eritrea, and which was proteSeti in front by aw-
ful and dangerous cliffs. They continued their march
for five verb in the Steppe, in fight of the
right fide of the forma, and beat back tdl
the detachments of the enemy fent to oppo(e them.
At Taft, having reached a plain (urrounded by bills,
and interfperred with eminences about four verfts iai_.
circumference, Prince Zisianof gave orders to the.
charcor rquare t 6 commit their artillery and heavy
baggage to the care of the nest inure, to difperfe
themfelves over the heights, and to drive from them
, the enemy, who had taken poll there in numerous
hour. Five times the Perfians occupied the hills
and eminences over the high road, and as often were
they forced from them by the chaffeurs. At length,
after they had reached the afeent of the fteep and rocky
mountain, the accefs to which was rendered more
difficult by the refittance made by the enemy from
the fiqpinit, Prince ZIP/1110F detached the Colonel
of the Caucafian grenadiers, Koss-meet, with the
fufileer battalioo of that regiment, to form it. The
Colonel, notwithltanding the difficulty of this attempt,
and the Reepnefs of the mountain, advanced rapidly
with forty_ffifileers, having Major Osuroe at their
head, put the enemy to Sight, and thus opened a
paffage foi the whole corps, which terminated the
operations of the day.
a The enemy, thrown into great eonfternatios,
abandoned their camp, and fled beyond Erivan.
Their troops, amounting to whooo men, who were
befogging it, (was in the ulna confufion acrofs the -
River Araks, and difpeefed themfelves, leaving in our
