HAMBURGH, Jnne7.
The war 011 the fide of the Rhine piomifes to
extremely bloody, if we may judge from the Pro
clamation of the French Directory, as well as that
of the arch-duke Charles, which is defervingof at
tention. Enclosed is an extract of a private letter
from Switzerland, dated May 26 : " The good tin
derftanding between France and Switzerland be
gins to be re-eftabiifhed, and we learn that nocamp
of Swiss troops will be formed near Bade. The
cantons of Fribourg arid Soleure have ordered all
the French emigrants to withdraw from their ter
ritories, and have acknowledged Barthelemi as am
bassador of the French Republic.''
LONDON, June' 6—7.
Yederday an account was received at the Admi
ralty from Cadiz, containing advice that Admiril
Mann, having taken on board four months provisi
ons and water at Gibraltar, had resumed his Nati
on before the Spanffh port, that Admiral Riahery,
with his squadron, wa3 ready to put to sea ; and a
Spanish squadron was likewise ready to fail, at the
fame time. Admiral Mann, apprized of this cir
cumdance, had sent a message to the Spanish Ad
miral, that it was his intention, at all events, to at.
tack the French (hips, the moment they should get
clear of the neutral port ; and that if they were at
all'aflifted by the Spaniards, they muff answer for
the consequences.
A letter from Leghorn, of the 6th ult. dates,
that Sir Gilbert Elliot had caused the Corfican- in
furgents, to the number of. 4000, to be attacked
with great vigour ; and that a considerable body of
them having been taken -by surprise, in the vicini
ty of' Ajarcin, •AilafptSfrt'-
the rebels were defeated with great loss-, and a num
ber of prisoners made, who ar« to be immediately
tried as traitors.
Saturday two of the rioters at the Hudings,
Covent Garden, who had been for several days no

language, were taken before a Magistrate, and after
a full examination, not being able to give a good
account of themselves, and no creditable person ap
peaiing in their behalf, were ordered on board a
King's ship ; and it was recommended by the
Magistrate to fend them on board Admiral Gard
ner's flag ship.

A few nights since the Bristol and Birmingham
mail coach arrived at the Hop-pole, in Tewkefku
ry, about twelve o'clock, with four inside passen
gers, confiding of three gentlemen and a lady, when
one of the gentlemen and the lady getting out, left
an old gouty gentleman and another passenger be
hind in the coach. Fresh horses being put to, the
guard and coachman went into the houfeto take a
little refrefhment, when the horses set off full speed,
and passing through the turnpike gate, which was
open, went on for Gloucester, and pafled along the
various turnings with as great legularity as if the
coaehman had been on the box. After going al
most eight miles, to the no small terror of the pas
sengers, they met the other mail coach, the guard
of which, observing that no coachman was on the
box, he went on with the coach towards Bristol.
One of the pafTengers, just before they met the
other mail coach, was so much frightened that he
jumped out, and was much hurt. The old gouty
being unable to follow him was obliged
to flay behind, and was several times heard on the
road, by different persons, crying out murder.

Extract of a letter from a Refpeflable Merchant in J,
London, to a House in this city. r
" I do not regret the treatment of Mr. Jay's j-
Treaty. It was not what it ought to have been,
and might have been, as is generally believed here.
The spirit of the Representatives will be a lefTon to j
future treaty makers. One thing 1 cannot but
express a degree of adonifhment at, and that is the
dread your papers were full of—of a war in conse
quence of the reje&ion of the treaty. This coun
try has more than enough of war already, and A- ( j
merica will ever'derive morejuftice from firranefs,
than by any expreflions of fear."
■1. REMARKS.
Nothing can be more ahfurd than to suppose that
the heroes of the American Revolution were afraid
of Great Britain. No, this was not the quelliou
with the statesmen, the patriots of our country. —
War or negociation were the alternative.-—Not
that Great Britain would declare war againd the
United States, but, that, unlels she would consent
to do us.justice, we should unavoidably be compel- f
led to declare war agtiinlt Great Britain. (
The " treatment of Mr. Jay's treaty" has been f
the means of encreafing thfe public expence6 of the t
United States enormously—and now—its oppofers
are trying to persuade the people, that they never
intended to set it aside 1 Let the people beware of I
such -wolves, who are thus arraying themfebes in e
1 sheep's skins. £
With refpeft to the above letter, its authenticity J
!. may well be doubted when the compof.tion is taken r
into view. If is however singular that certain per-
sons w\\a feel that (heir opposition to the treaty has '
rendered them odious to the independent and free 4
' citizens of the United States should seek for apo
logists among the English, whom they have been in
the habit of abufirig for two or three years past.

impregnated with the most deleterious qualities,
and like the poison tree of Java/would, if not

, J. TO THE PF.OPT.K %
, THE French have broken the fetters which for
so many centuries have weighfed heavy on us ; they
. have put to flight the cowardly satellites of the
, Austrian tyrant, and by the valour of a free peo
t pie we also become free.
The emblems of liberty already wave in thp air.
: This tree which we have just raised in the midd of
1 plaudits and of the transports of joy of an immenle
, coneourfe of people, announces to alt our future re
-5 generation. 1
; Citizens,
; By this feftival, by these emblems, we declare
- that we are free ; but shall we will to be free with
. fufficient energy ? Shall we determine to imitate the
1 generous people that has driven away our tyrants;
; and shall we be animated by the sacred fire of Li
. beity ; shall we prefer death to fubmiflion to a new
; yoke? Yes, Lombards! Let us swear to live free
: or die.
r Let us hasten, Lombards, to accomplish this
1 great work j let us declare unanimously, that we
: will be free; let us (hew ourselves worthy of be
ing free, and we shall be so in reality. Let Reli
. gion and Liberty go hand in hand. Yes! Let
Tyrants tremble at tha sacred name of liberty ;
and far from submitting to new chains, let the vo
racious Eagle return affrighted to his enslaved

" CITIZENS LOMBA«CS,
Lombarby, ci-devant Austrian Lombardy, after
having experienced duiing so many centuries the
I oppreflive yoke of a number of usurpers, who have
, mauled it even to dedroying the name of its ancient
5 origin, has at last reverted into the hands of its ori
ginal founders ; this country has ceased to be the
patrimony of crime and tyranny. 1
People ,of Lombardy 1 Let us rife j let us turn
with joy and admiration our view towards those
bra/e Frenchmen, the scourge of tyrants,and let us
acknowledge in them our fathers and deliverers. 1
They have not invaded with projects of avarice 1
and ambition. They neither wish to subvert our 1
religion, invade our property, nor endanger ou: 1
fafety ; their efforts are solely againd our natural- 1
enemy, whom we were obliged to call our sovereign, <
he who.had so far debased us as to make us kiss the 1
chain he imposed. !
Let us awake, Citizens Lombards, the tyrant is <
here no more, he has fled. Let us not delay a mo- I
ment the naming 6f a national representation to '
take out of the hands of the mtinicipalities parti- j
fans of oligarchy, the deposit of the Audrian feep
tre. Let us establish a government founded on the t
rights of man, which shall unite all classes into one ;
family ; a government founded upon the principles !
of liberty and equality ; which (hall be the hope
and solace of the poot hitherto oppressed and deba
fed ; let us waufe to be heard at fad, throughout the
crlobt, that the Lombards have resolutely determi
ned to make themfclves a Country.

MR. KENNO,
THE instances of individual heroifnt in the
French armies are worthy of being recorded, and ,
they do honor to the French Nation. There were J
however as striking and extraordinary traits cf he
roism and firtmiefs discovered by the officers and,
soldiers of the American army during our r'evoltlti
on-war, as were ever exhibited on the theatre of
the Globe. An Officer of Artillery told me, that
in one action with the enemy, every one of his ma- i
troffes \yere either killed or wounded—and of
thffe fvho survived, several were wounded in three
and four different parts of the body early in the ac
tion, and yet continued at their poll till it was en
ded. in another adlion a ferjeant of Artillery
continued at his gun, after receiving seven musket
wounds from the shot of the enemy. Yours

TRIBUTE OF GRATITUDE.
ON the 3 111 January, 1796, at half past •)
o'clock in rhe evening, the American brig Friend
ship, Capt. Afcough," in a violent gale, stranded on
entering the port of Lisbon. The vefTel soon fill
ed with water—in this fituawon we remained until
2 o'clock the 1 ext day. The officer commanding
the round Castle, so called, had the goodness to ex
hibit torch lights the whole night. In the morn
ing at fun-rife he alarmed the Bellum Castle and
the city by firing signal guns. The Sea at this '
time wjs so boisterous that n<a one could be prevail
ed on to attempt relieving us. Boats at length
were manned and sent out by public authority, with
orders not to return without effecting our relief,
under pain of death—notwithstanding this, the
boats after having proceeded, were observed to
turii and rowtowaids fhote,'ou which several can*
non loaded with ball were fired at them. They
then redoubled their exertions, and at length reach
cd the brig and took us out—we had then been up
to our armpits in water sos mahy hours. We were
carried to Lisbon, destitute of every thing but the
cloaths on our backs, thoroughly drenched. As
soon as we landed we were mod humanely received
by Mr. Jacob Dohrman, merchant of that city*
who placed Us in comfortable lodgings, and the day
following furnifhed us with cloathing. The bene
volent, humane and polite condtift of-the Portu
guese officers, and the friendly attention of Mr.
Dohrixian experiened by, us on this trying and cri J
tical occasion could not be exceeded, and demand
a more grateful acknowledgement than we are abW
to express.
