THE LOVELY TWINS
'X 'O fay they're pretty, blooming, fair,
Or praise their brilliant features,
To celebrate each shape and air,
And swear they're 41 lovely creatures,'' —
Are words of conrfc—fpoutaneous fruit
Which science yields to beauty ;
Nay, often, the uncultui'd brute
Thus pays his awkward duty
11.
But when through their enchanting
And animated faces, >
The man of sterling ferife descries
Their polifh'd mental graces ;
When he, attentive, hears them speak
In pure, mellifluent measure,
Mild admiration glows his cheek,
His foul dissolves in plea fare !
111.
With timid eye on either face
Alternately he gazes;
The fafcinating charms of Grace*'
His raptur'd fancy praises :
But while he breathes in amorous style,
He finds his wifties vary—
And then, perhaps, a fleeting fmilt
Attaches him to Mary.*
IV.
In vain efTays its art,
His eye its tranquil glances,
For, ah ! his palpitating heart
Is loft itv pleaftng trances!
The fair one by his frequent sighs
His wishes may discover,
- And read in his responsive eye«

COPENHAGEN, August 28.
IT i s difficulttocxprefs the sensation which the ac
counts of the events of the 10th of August, which
the French Minister has received by a courtcr, has
eaufed here- Our court has resolved for the prc
fent to break off all official communication with
France, and not to resume it during the suspension
of the royal authority. Baron de Bluhme, the
Danifti envoy at Paris, has by this time quitted
that unfortunate capital.
TRLVES, August 28.
The Swiss regiment of Chateau-Vieux, which
remained in the pay of Fiance, 011 the 241b of
August quitted its garrison of Bitche, to repair to
Toul ; hut when about a league from the former

to return to their own country. This was in
stantly acceded to; each foldier'received 40 car
tridges, and the regiment the fame day arrived
without any accident at Deux-Ponts. Thii corps,
which loft a great number at Nancy, consists of
about 600 men.

September 22,
M cle la Fayette Ims published, in the Lev
den Ghetto, the following address to the army
lately commanded oy him.
" At a time, when after having concurred
in two great revolutions, I enjoyed in retire
ment tne success of my constant efforts' for the
canfe of the people, the dangers of the country
"latched me from a private life ; I came in the
micft ot the applauses of the nation, to com
roancLtoe army which the kin- had «„trufte ( l to
me; and t.,e narionaf affemblv de.gned, bv the
organ of tts present, tofavtome, < We on
pofe to the enemies coalesced 'against us, the
Conftnution and La Fayette.' Since this ~
you have had the means of judging ,„ e
Your confidence (hewed me that you approved
my conduct ; your fnendlhip answered to the
tender attachment-wjiich I had vowed to v„ u
Happy to defend, m the midst of fotdiers de-tr
lifeT lal''I al '' the P nnd f ,k '" 1 to "h'ch mv whole
Ji.e has been consecrated, and the conflitution
inthi- t resst at,onal ». fove .r e iS nnyt y £*ve us,l f UUIK i
thi„ relittance ot a tree people to f 0 manv
eifor s re-umted agaiult then,, every thing that
opinions and animate my
tl You will remember, I fear, with uneafmefs
that a turbulent faction, whose movements &p-
peered to me to correspond with those of our
exterior enemies, endeavored to deprive us of
that which makes the force of a free people, res-
pest for the laws and fidelity to the constitution,
which in this moment seemed to me to be our
only point for rallying. My conduit was known
to, and my opinion.-, were snared by you—my
franknefs animated more and more against me
all the enemies of the constitution ; but what
ever were their efforts and their menaces, the
national afTembly, by a majority of two-thirds,
repulsed their absurd accusations heaped up a
gainst me. Ycu know the violences offered the
next day to the national alltmbly j those exer
cised on the loth of August agaiuft the king;
the state of Paris at the moment i'-'ien the ftil
pension of the king was decreed ; thp murders,
the proscriptions which took place, not only
during the battle at the Thuilleries, but even
during the following days. I refer in this ref
pe<st to the decrees of the department of Ar
dennes and of the municipality of Sedan, and
to the few accounts which were fuffered to pass,
while all the papers, devoted to the Jacobin
party, were circulated with profufion. It was
evident, that the measures taken on th** loth
of August were contrary to the constitution atf,
and that they were forced from the national as
sembly. This con vision guided my conduct.
The administrative bodies and the municipa
lities required you to renew the ci/icoath; the
constitution has determined this and or
dered you to obey the requisitions of the con-,
ftituted authorities. It was with regret that I
saw a part of the army so far from the fulfill
ment ot this duty, that I would have spared
them the evil of refuting it. The pains taken
to calumniate me in your opinion, have suc
ceeded so far as to alienate a part of your con
fidence. On the ot-her fide the commifjioneri
ot the national afTembly, who"; accept don
the loth of August, the ex- cutic. the de
crees which violence to 1 c > fchetf them,
deprived me of part o my r C - i-d from
Dunkirk to Maubeuge ; im\ r proposed
equally to destitute me o* u.ai which united
me to you, and to renew against me those ac
cu fat ions which neither the aflembly, the juries
or the judges, were any longer free to decide
upon, in the state to which violence had re
duced them.
" Iu these circumstances, and when the pre
sent faction directs itfelf principally against the
authors of the revolution, against the true
friends of the constitution, I ceased (%' be des
tined to fight at your head, and I could no
longer hope for an ufeful death. What re
mained for me to do > To remove from you a
general, whom you would be forbidden to obey,
and to preserve to liberty a defender, whose in
flexibility has merited for him, in this moment,
the honor of being proscribed. I separate mv
felf, therefore, from you; I fepa> Lte mvfclf
with a sentiment of grief, which it is, at Jeaft,
sweet to pojjr into the bosoms of those of my
companions in arms, who have preserved for
me their affection. I took, before letting out,
all the measures which could anfwet t« me for
your fafety ; and I go far from my country,
where a party reigns which proscribes me, far
from the enemies coalesced against us, and
whom I hoped to combat at your head, to taste,
in my retreat the consolation of a pure con
science and to form ardent willies for the tri
umph of French liberty over all the fa&ions
who seek to enslave it.

" 1 Kings in the capital remain much as they
were last pod ; the flow approach of the com
bined armies gives rife to many conjectures'-
their friends attribute the slowness of their ad
vance to prudent well-digested caution, whilst
their enemies attribute it to fear of being fur
lounded, defeated and cut to pieccs; but we
have lome reason to believe that it will turn out
that the wisest councils direst tbeir operations
and that it will appear that measures of confe'
qnence are concerting that will occasion an im
portant change in the affairs of France; in fact
the sensible part of the nation, those who nei!
therwifh to fee despotism re-eflahlifhed, nor
the reign of anarchy prevail, but who anxiouflv
desire to fee a liberal government established,
nch as will do honor to human nature, are (fe
conded by a strong party) bulily employed in
negotiation with ti.e Court of Great-Britain
id tnat of Prnflia, in endeavoring to brii.o a
noitt a proposal from these two Courts, to ac
knowledge the conditntion as accented and
sworn to by Louis XYlth, and upon that „r o u"d
Mr ™rch again up,,, tK-

the French nation for the formation of a Go

pnnciples that the nation would not fttfl so
