June 6. The Duke de*Crillon Mahon, Captain-Genera! of the armies, died here lass month, at the age of _ So. It is calculated, that he has been in- 68 dif ferent engagements. le It is extraordinary that th» public papers have he not sooner announced this loss which Spain has fuf. tained. The DuKe de Crillon, of a'l their Gene rals, commanded the Spanim armies with ths great est fucce£Fes in the year 17S0, againfl the English. IE It was he who in that war took the island of Mi norca, from England. After having served long in France, his native coußtry, at the conclusion of the seven years war, he pafTcd with the approbation of "the French government into the service of Spain, where he acquired the firft military rank. Not having taken any part in the lad war of the Spa niards a?ainft the French, he had a very a&ive (hare in the peace which terminated-its- The title of Duke of Mahon, destined to per petuatethe remembrance of his vrftories, has pas sed to the youngest »f his sons by a third marriage.

Even persecution, which they did not efeape, has not weakened their conflancy. This example of devotion to the republic, far exceeds the palriotifm of who boast of their disinterestedness, while the revolution has been to them a mine of gold, or who have seta high price upon very trifling services. ITALY, [une 30. A French conyoy of 25 (hips are arrived on the coast of Genoa, which have been pursued in vain '* by the English Chips of war. A conspiracy has baen discovered at Mantua, to give up the city to the French. Several pieces of c&nnon, at the part-where the French were to make the attack, were found only charged with powder and sand. The conspirators have been arretted, and the French, when they appeared before that part, were received with ball.

MILA'N, June 14. General Buonaparte is, it is, said, gone to Paris, to confer personally with the Dire&ory, and receive new inftruftions for his future operations. He is ejtpefted to return within a fortnight. Citizen, Pinfot has been appointed commifTary of the French . army in the room of Salicetti. On the 12th three deputies set out from this city to Pan's, to notily to the French government the wish of the inhabitants of Milan, that the Milanese 1 and the reft of Lombardy may be changed into a republic. > When the deputies were about to depart, a great multitude of people was afTembled. The president of the munii ipality made a discourse to them, in which he said, " that all the municipalitie», legally affetabled, had expressed their wish that the country might be changed into a republic.'?- One of the deputies replied, and aflure'd the president, that he would exei t himfelf to the utmost in the execution of his mission, that the people might be gratified in their wi(h for republican liberty. Another of the deputies (Serbelloni) at his departure, took off the key he wore as chamberlain, and declared that as he wa4 now a freeman,, he would no longer wear the badge of slavery. The new French CommifTary, Pinfot, has order ed that all persons who are indebted to the Auftit an government, the Archduke Ferdinand, the Emi grants or the powers at war with France, shall give them in, tinder pain of paying double ; all feudal! rights, exclusive rights of the chace, all armorial bearings and liveries, are abolished.

LONDON, July 5. 1 , The fcherae of operations of the French Armies ' is not fufficiently understood in this Country to ena- f ble us to form a proper estimate of its merits. Mi- !' litary men who know \he country, however, speak 1 of it \Vith the highest commendation. They fay it is a plan conceived with equal enterprize and c still: it defeats every project that the Auftrians formed for the campaign ; since if Prince Charles * fttould detach from his army a body oT men fuffi- ' cient to Wurffifcr to attack Moreau, he v must expose the important line of the river Main to 1 Jourdan, who would afTuredly again cross" the '' Rhine : and even sn attack by Wnrmfer would not 0 be disastrous to Moreau, while the Ffench bavefe- u cured the bridges for their retreat. On the other hand, if piince Charles does not a detach, it is likely that Morfcau will form a jundti- 3 on with Kellerman, who has hardly any thing to oppose his pa (Tags by the Lake of Conltance, ex cept the feebie garrisons of Landau and Bregenlz ; and, this junflion once the Austrian armies mult retreat fiom the Rhine to save the veiy heart P of Germany.' In the mean time, even if these grand projefls d Should fail, the FVcgcb have succeeded in turning the war into the enemy's country. The fertil? c l fidee of the Brtfgaw not merely save their own a, f crops, but deprive the Auftrians of their only near y supplies, and force them tojliaw all their fubfjftence b from the Mam and" Necker.
