LONDON DEC. 10.
A variety of rumours are in circulation re-
lativc to the views of the Cabinent on The Cor
tinent. 1t is faid that Nj. Aylesworth, the
meGenger, who arrived lately from Vienna,
brought difpatches to miniaers, which tended
to confirm the opinion that AuRris is difpofed
to conclude peace with France. Il is alio
reported that proportions for negotiation
have actually been tranfnitted to this country
through the medium of the Pruilian Cabinet
HlDion.
Ii is aGerted If the Emperor of Germany
concludes treaty of partition. with France, at
which the feelings of other governments muit re-
volt he will have csufe TO dread the indignation
of thofe' powers. This cannot be true for ad
hitting for infiance that England and Ruilis
could endanger his exifance as a Prince, what
would be the confequence of an attack by
them The moment the Emperor Frarcis
found himfeif clofeIy preGed perhaps before, he
would throw himlelf into the arms of France,
and thus promote the caufe of the revolution,
oppolition TO which is here pretended to be the
only osietl Of hoaiiity if England and Ru1ia
be finoere in their projections. they would dread
attacking Auaria, under thefe circumstances,
more than fanetioning her acqoifsions' Ibid
Among other ipeeulations upon the terms Of
partition upon which France and Autria may
conclude treaty of peace, 1t is conjeeured,
thar Bavaria may be facri6eed, the Elettor OF
which has broken al terms With France, and

AT late hour iaa night, we nopt The PRES.
to give to our readers a piece of news they
have been eagerly looking for, aad which re-
bounds more to the honor even of the intrepid
Truxton and his brave crew, than We had reaion
to expect.
The brig Rebecca, capt. Harding. belonging
to Menrs. Scott and Seaman, arrived here latt
evening. in IS days from Curacao.
By capt I6ing, we are Informed, that
about days IRE he failed the French flip
Vengeance, capt. Perot, of s. guns, arrived
there ENTIRELY DISMASTED, with the
lof of 100 men killed. and 60 wounded, in the
engagement with the United States frigate
Csnifellation, commodore Truxton of 38 guns.
The Vengeance was bound from Cuada-
loupc to France, with available cargo, belides
large quantity Of fpecie, and had on board
the Governor of Cuadaioupc and family.
Capt. Harding alto informs, that the Ven-
geance was mere wreck, when fhe arrived
both pumps were going, and 9 feet Of water in
her hold.
The French captain faid, at Curacao, that
he was on the eve of iiriking and indeed, had
no hopes of .eicaping from his gallant, though
then unknown antagonia-- But, before the Re-
becca failed, he learned who it was that 70
braveiy contended with him.

MIA where he now reides. His ia
rther was a reputable landholder of
that county, and gave ibis, his eldeit
fon, a college education at the uni

city of " illismsburg. After palS-
ing his degrees, being deGgned for
the bar, Mr.. TeRetlon commenced
aitudent at law, under The guidance
of George Wythe, now the venera-
blejudge and iole chancellor Of Viz
gina.
In 1866, M. Je&erfon came 70

native fate, and continued to prac-
fife therein with great fuccefs and
reputation until the commence
