" On Monday lajl, agreeably to notice,
the Books for the fubfeription of Jhares in
the Columbia Bank were opened. More
than double the number of /hares permitted by
the law to be taken, were demanded. Of

the rejl were curtaded, the great,jl proportion
being taken from the largefl fubferiptions.—
The bii/inefs was ft conduced as to afford,
Bttwihjlanding the disappointments, general

taken by one of the gentlmen appointed to re
ceive fubferiptions, is 120. To the honor of
the inhabitants of this town, they were re-
Jlrained, by considerations oj delicacy, from
engaging in any kind of speculation upon the
fubjeti ; though it was evident that they might
have done so to great advantage. The great

Last evening-arrived in town, Colonel
E. Oswald,from Havre-de-Grace,which
place he left the 9th November. We
hear that Mr. Oswald has bro't difpatcl.es
for the Secretary of State, and M. Genet.
By Col. Oswald we learn, that twenty
two membars of the National Convention,
have been tried by the Revolutionary
lribunal of Paris, and found guiltv of
conspiring against the Republic—and were
afterwards guillotined—among them Brif
fot. One of the members dabbed himfelf,
but was carried to the guillotine with the
Petion, Condorcet and Le Brun,
late minister of ioreign affairs, had made
their escape.

gagements will allow : but as considerable
expencr has been incurred in building a
theatre for them in Baltimore, it is feared
they will not visit us until some time in
March next.
Extract of a letter from Angufta, Georgia,
December 11
" On Saturday we received the joyous
confirmed accounts of the general defeat
of the several divifionsof combined despots
against the only real Republicans in the
world. On this continent we have been
taught to believe, that our constitution
breathes more than freedom itfelf, but
when I compare it with that of the French,
I find v.'e arc rtiackled with nearly a 6 much
aristocracy as when under the slavish chains
of British tyranny. To-morrow we are
to hare an ox killed and barbecued on the
common ; the governor gives powder to
fire a feu dejuyr ; no person shall be at it,
but those who are real friends to the re
public of France ; nor dare a fellow who
has been hardy enough to pollute freedom,
or abuse its cause, approach the sacred
ground. A notification to that effect will
be handed round, although there are not
more than twenty such above the line

" We are informed, fays a correspond
ent, that the class of citizens" who have
petitioned against the stage, are in no de
gree displeased with the comparison ialti
tuted in this paper of lalt evening, between
the Theatre and Swine. On the contrary,
they think, that, as the things compared
are evidently some of the dirtiefi and mojl
filthy in nature, the simile is peculiarly
happy, so far as this point of refemblahce
is concerned : And they are confident that
the public will remark that there i» not a
shadow of likeness in any thing beside ; be
cause the position from which it would a
rise—" that the Theatre is not incompa
tible with the good order of society"—is
begged ; —and that it has been begged and
legged, till no body but a Jlurdy lieggar
would haTe the face to beg it any more.

The Carmagnoles that hefieged Nieu

retreat to Caflel and Dunkirk. There is
not a Frenchman on this fide the latter
place. The ditmiige which, they <iid to
Nituport docs not prove to be so gi cat a*
was at iirtt apprehended. The chief at
tack was on the 25th nit. It commenced
at 7 in the morning, and continued till
night. Ihe artillery from our ramparts
did great execution ; the vny firil aif
eharge set iire to a hrew-houfe and (table,
behind which the French had entrenched
themfclven, and it was speedily reduced to
allies.
1 lie !ofs of the republicans cannot be
nfeertained, at they carried off their killed
and wounded, a few excepted, whom they
left upon the ground.
The four 24 pounders and two howitz
ers which they left behind them, together
with a vafl quantity of (hot and balls, are
now in the square at Nieuport. The enemy
luffered much from 5 (hips of war, which
lay off Nieuport, and flanked them.

enemy far beyond Menin, their loss which
mult have been conliderable, cannot be yet

It is now aiTtired, that the French army

LONDON, Nov. 7,
The city of Florenzo in the island of
Corlica, is now besieged by five ships of
Lord Hood's squadron on the sea, and by
Gen. Paoli on the land fide. It is meant
to be flarved into a surrender.
The grand total of prisoners, in the
different goals of Paris, amounted on the
24th ult. to 3042.
In the proceedings of the National
Convention, so late down as OA. 27, it is
stated that the Royalists of La Vendee,
far from being exterminated, have jjained
advantages over the republicans, and have
the city of Laval.
By authentic accounts from Frankfort
of the 28th, wc learu that the allied pow
ers had taken pofleflion of Alsace in the
name of his most Christian Majesty Louis
XVII.
The report of the surrender of I.andau
is not founded. The garrison of the for
trefs sent a trumpeter, offering to capitu
late. They demanded, bcfidcs a free re
treat, other conditions, similar to the
garrison of Mentz, but this was refufed.
Fort Louis also wanted to capitulate ;
but the allies answered the patriots, that
they mult surrender at difcrction. The
lattci- place is bombarded daily.
From Rreft wt learn, that 2 ilujn Lr
longingto the Toulon named Be
Patrjote, and J.'Entreprcnant, of 74
guns each, commanded by Danvctte and
liourhone, arrived at that place on Wo
ihe 25th ult. 'iney had be.;o dilpatchcd
thither, it is said by Lord Hood,:or ionic
fccret icrviccs.
The national commifiioners, apprch en
five of some treachery, forbid all commu
nications with them, and ordered the com
manders and officers to be imnicdidtcly
arretted. They are to be sent to Pai
for examination.
Accounts from Havre, dated Oftobir

the town, and the military force had been
confidcrably augmented.

was in the highest health and spirits. The
Prince of w:s doing his
utmolt to bring the French to a
adlion, which there were some hopes of
his being able to acccmpiifh.
Ihe Prince of Cobourg's Head Quar
ters are at Solefms, behind Fandrecis. The
corps which he has left at Bav*>y and at
Barlamount, to oblervc the French on the
other fide of the Sambre, is commanded
by General Clairfait. Another corps is
placed on the right fide of the Sambre,
towards the Somme. This pohtion has
the double advantage, to intercept the
convoys that might be forwarded from
Lisle and Douay to the grand army, and
to prevent General Jourdain from fc;id:t:i
affiftance ro the places in Weft Handets
that may be attacked by the Allies.
It is thought, that in conkquence of
this difpoiition, the Duke of Yoric m now

which cannot receive succours from the
grand Frencli army without General Jour
