Paoli had given battle to the French between Monticello, Carfifao, and Pi&ral ba, in which Ue killed many, and took a great number of prifonere. Having been informed that the French treated ill those who fell into their hands, he ordered that ten of the French prisoners (hould be hang ec\, but not by the hands of the conjmon executioner, for that they (hould hang one another, and the survivor (hould be (Viot, which was executed at Corte on the 20th of December. The celebrated jewels of the late Ma dame du Barre, are, at this time, in the fafe custody of Meflrs. Hammerfley and Morland. A correspondent begs leave to observe, that if Madame du Barry left any property in this country, it (hould be recommend ed to the Attorney-General to enquire af ter it ; and a<ks, might it not be applied with equal humanity and propriety to the relief of the French emigrants at least, if not to the relief of the public diftrefles of this conntry. It has- been said, that the above lady was a natural child of a native of Great Britain. R T T S E R. ALSO [Whole No. 566.] UNITED STATES. NEW-YORK, April n. C ommunication. It is remarked by Jasper Wilson, in his excellent letter to Mr. Pitt,that the great iuftrument of success of the Jacobins in France has been the suspicion they con stantly excited, that every friend of peace and subordination was conne&ed with the foreign enemies that are invading France." In the fame manner "the friends of peace in Great Britain, were denounced as leagued with foreign invaders. This was the reel secret ofMeffrs. Reeves, Burke,& Co. for levelling the levellers, " Mr. Fox and the oppofitiof), who attempted to keep England from engaging in a war against France, " The nation was panic-struck, apprehension and credulity go hand in hand, " and it was thus the English nation was united against France. ' In America the fame instrument has been employed with similar success. The most effe&ual means employed by the late French Minister to raise an alarm here, and make this country engage iti a war with I' ranee, was, a suspicion he very in duitrioufly excited that the friends of peace end the federal government were under British influence. He openly declared our executive offi cers to be bribed with British gold. In this he was indiscreet—the charge was too gross—his best friends would not believe it, and criedJhame upon him. Such afpe cific charge required proof for support— this therefore wafs not inlilted on—but the general suspicion that federal men were at tached to Great Britain, Were tones, arif ocrats and friends to monarchy, required 10 proof; it was only to forcad it among :ommon people who deal much in name) imHrttlrttrprxnft j arid render all modc ate men odious by-unmet which have no neaning or are not underllood. The bait •vas swallowed by a party ; and certain :reate prejudice and hatred against the upportets of our government. To all such charges the belt answer is, that there :s not one syllable of truth in these charges igamfl federal men, and that the British lave as little influence in the politics of his country, as the Chinese. NEW-LONDON, April 10. Tuesday evening arrived here from Lis bon, the Swedilh snow Agneta Elizabeth, Magnus Ofell, matter, who left there tile 12th of Feb . Capt. Griffin of Chatham fold his veflel, and chartered this snow, in which he came pafienger. No late news had been received at Lisbon of the tranfaaions that were taking place between the powers at war ; three mails were due from England; one arrived the day this veffi.l failed, but ho thing of its contents had transpired previous to her departure. — Capt. Griffin corrobo rates the intelligence which We have before received, that the Spanish court had propp ed to the French nation, a cessation of hos tilities during three months, to which the la ter refufed to agree. Orders were pub lilhed in Lilbon for the restoration of all French property, which had been taken pos session of by the Portuguese, in fix days af ter the ifliiing of the decree, about the 10th of February; which is almost a certain au gury that there will be no \frar between the two countries. It was there, expt&ed, that in consequence of the conduit of G. Britain towards this country, the United States would declare war against that haughty power, capt; • Griffin fays, that at the time of his failing, there was not provisions fufficient in Lisbon to answer the demand for more than eight weeks* At Cadiz flogr was at 15 dollars, and corn 7/6 per bushel. Capt. Furnes, of Boston, was the last vtf fel known at Lisbon to have been carried into Algiers; certain information had been re ceived of 21 fail of those pirates being at sea on a cruize, when Capt. Ofell filed ; one of them had beert 'spoken witli as' far north ward as Oporto.—lt was believed at Lisbon, ' that the combined powers would not be able to continue the war against France another campaign. * WANTED • * AN APPRENTICE To the Pointing Eufinef's, Enquire at this Office.
