She met the King of 'Westphalia, who endeavour-
ed to calm her ; she addressed herself N Prince
Borghese atid.Count Regnautl. After searching
fot a quarter of ate hour, impelled by the heroism
of niaternal love, she entered the burning saloon,
from which inom-ent we know not know nut what
has become'uf her. The 'fire was then got under,
and the Ambassador's hotel preserved, and tran-
qt.iliity re-established.
Prince Joseph Schwarzenberg was engaged all.
the night in search of his wife, who was 'dot to
be found either at her brother's,. the Ambassador,
or at M. de Iletternich's. lie was doubtful of his
misfurtune till the day broke, when a disfigured
corpse was found near the saloon, which Dr. Gall
thought to be that of the Princess Schwanene
berg. It remained no longer doubtful when her
diamonds, and the medallion of her children,
which she wore suspeuded from her neck, were ex.
emitted.
Princess Pdulino Schwarzeaberg was laugh.
ter of the Senator Aremberg ; she was mother of
eight children, and four months advanced in preg-
nancy ; she was as much distinguished for the
graces of her person, as by the excellent qualities
of her mind and heart. The affectionate act
which dust her her life, proves how she deserves
to be regretted, for death was most evident.--
The ihitivs were most terrific • none but a
mother could have faced such danger.l Appre-
hensions are entertained for the life of the Princess
de la Lam, wife of the Russian Consul; also
fur that of the Baroness 'fousard. Fifteen or six-
teen persons more or less wounded, are out of
danger.. Prince Kurakin has slept, and this even.
ing great hopes are entertained that his accident
would nut terminate latally.• The Austrian Am-
bassador, whose horrible situation it is easy to
conceive, skewed, during the whole night, that
Attention, that activity, calmness, and presence
of mind, which might have been expected' of
him. The officers of his legation, and of his
nation gave signal proofs of their courage and de-
votedness; the public expressed great admiration
at seeing the Ambassador accompany the Emperor
and Empress to their carriages, forgetting the
danger to which his own family were exposed.
The Emperor retired at three o'clock in the
morning. He sent several times during the night
to enquire the fete of the Princess Pauline Schwar-
zenberg, which remained uncertain. At five
o'clock in the 'waning. he received the account
of her death. His Majesty, who had a particular
esteem for this Princes, regrets her loss extreme-
ly.—Her Majesty, the Empress, exhibited the
greatest calmness during the whole of the even.
ing; but on hearing this morning of the death of
the Princess, she shed abundance of tears.

UNITED STATES.

CALL OF THE CONGRESS.
NEW YOUR, JUNE 13.--A rumour of this
event is getting into circulation in the different Pa-
pers, on what authority we know not, though we
think the fact by no means improbable.
The Baltimore Inig-says : " We have been in-
formed that the John Adams is expected to bring
such news from Europe, as will require an inime.
diate call of the Congress by Proclamation, and
that it is the intention of the President to convene
them, in case of public exigence."
The Pencral licpublican also remarks A
friend from Washington informs, that it was con_
fidently stated that Congress would be convened in
July ; that it was understood Mr. Pitilency would
be recalled ; and that nu hopes were eMertained of
averting °pest hostilities with France."
OUTRAGEOUS INSULT.
A public dinner was to be given to Mr. Jackson,
the discarded British Minister, and insulter •of our
Government, on Monday last, at Boston, the
head- q garters of Toryism ; this is as it should be,
and w ill nilda few hundred votes to the Republican

would ask the attentiou of my readers to the con.
duct of Christophe towards us, ever since the dis-
comfiture of the French, and the final evacuation

The island has been torn to pieces by two Chiefs,
Petion and Christophe ; the former contending for
a representative goveromost,„..atd the latter for ab.
sante power over the public will.
A Government by representation, with a Presi.
dent in imitation of ours, was contemplated, and
Christophe was elected Chief Magistrate; but as
nothing short 9f serf dominion would content him,
he rejected the offer at the head of his troops, and
assumed the character and arrogated the powers
1 of a Monarch. . lietce arose, six years. ago, the
hostilities which hard ever since been carried on
between the two Chiefs. The island is pretty
equally divided between them. Christophe pos.
sesses all north of St. Mark, while Potion main-
tains the south. Their land and naval forces are
I equal, each having 15,000 troops, and.eight ships,

New-Irons, JUNE 12.—The speech delivered
in the Senate by the Governor of Massachusets on
the 7th of June has been published. In speaking
of the Belligerents, the Governor says.—
France has charged Great Britain with the establishmeot of
a despotic commercial monopoly, anti has viewed her own
conduct as the meritorious effect of a magnanknous volunteer
in a common cause. The King of Great Britain, in return, has
charged kranre with the fabrication of this, as a pretest to ro-
ver her deep designs of universal domination. By their vi-
brating conduct towards its. these mighty belligerents have
proved that both are in the right and both in the wrong; and
the United State% ever careful to offend neither' 'have with
uniform solicitude cultivated the friendship of each. Mav
their laudable endeavours be crioned %y ids merited success l
France, previously to her war, for a tittles of sears trembled
at the rod of mighty Britain ; unparalleled events have re-
versed the scene, and France now threatens, the overthrow
of her great energy. Napoleon,_ that great arbiter of the
east, is a most formidable foe. Hltt equal is not to be found
in the wails of men. Other Monarchs have been se) led
great; but as a Statesman mut 'Warrior, he is super-eminent ;
he is a prodigy of human nature ; he 13 viewed by his epe-
mies as a comet of the first magnitude, and, at a distance,
they admire the awful grandeur of both—but- the approach
of either they dread.—Thus unhappily circumstanced is
Great Britain, and she thinks her safety lies only nt war:
She conceives that by a peace her great and only national
safeguard, her Navy, must be dismantled, and her numerous
tareign seamen will return with joy to their Dative shores.
Oa the part of the United States, good policy will therefore
look forward to the probable continuance of war, in the par-
' ticiwition of which they have been anti will. coilinue to be in
danger. The great and good Ad bias. with his capacious
mind and extensive influence, follows the bright example of
the father and friend of his country, to preserve that inesti-
mable blessing.
