1. TOULON.
The capture of Toulon by Lord "Hood, forms
one of the mod important incidents of the present
war, and the paititulars ot it are bigljjy iiitereuing
at the present moment. For thit reason we con-
II ceive the following- article, extracted fr«m the
y French deputy Ifnaro's answer to Freron, which
throws a'ftrong light 'on the circUmstances that pre
ceded and followed that event, will not prove unac
a ceptable ; at the*''metime this detail may serve as
an answer to the Republicans here, who are apt
to blame the conduit of the Enolift oh that oc
casion :—
" The crime of the yift of May had just been
perpetrated, and the ardest Jlepiiblicans of the
C 3<sutb, enraged at the triurrpo of rhe Mountain,
lose in infurreftioTt, to tevenge tl>e Convention.
Their caufc w?s focred, but they Were subdued.
The Mountain flufted withioccefE, prdftribed them
in a maU. Nutirerous kaffedds were on rhe poi it
;r of being trc&ed by FrerJn ? all convenience for
provifiorti for tt.it town wa> iiiteieepted by land,
and it was unable to proetire any bj lea, the pott
being blocked up by theFnglifh. Toulon wat re
duced to the dreadful dilrmma of fufemittinjr cither
'"* to the Mountain or the Englifl), and of furrendtr
ing itfslf either to the mercy of Robefpierre-and
Freron, or to that ef Lord Hood. The former
» threatened the-city with fcaffoldt, and the latter
promised to break them down ; the former condrtn
ned ut to famine, and the latter offered to supply
ut with corn. Freron brought the constitution of
1793, diflated by Robefpierte, in the presence of
the executioner, and written with the pureffi blood
of our representatives j Hood proposed
so us to acknowledge the incient work of the con
stituent assembly. Under circumstances, some 1
of the inhabitant! were weak enough to ptefer
bread tfc death ; the conflirotion ®f 1790, to the
anarchical code of ; ti\e mitigated ancient re
gimen to l-he new regimen cf terror; andthe future
despotism of Prince* to the present tyranny of Fre.

*Tr grievont this crime may be, Frbhin and the
Mouatain mud attribute it to tlteir usurpations,>
cruelties, and cnnt?». were ite only caofe.
The author then proceeds to the recapture of
p Tsulon, the cenfequencet of which hedefcribci in
s the following manner ; " The great number of
r peffons accused of federalifip, and all rich and cau- -
tious inhabitants fled with the Englifb. The po
pulation of Toulon, which amounted to 28,0e0
j iouls, was reduced to 8000. Pursuant to« Procla
mation of Freron, ordering all good and loyal eui-
zent to lepair lathe Camp de Mars, 300* citizens
e proceeded to that place. The new Jiajdanapalus
made hit appearance on hoiffback, surrounded by
cannon, troopt, and the furious vvorlbippert of their
„ God Marat. These cannibals fell on i>e assembled
ciu'zent, and chafe their viiftims, as fancy, pafiiou,
or chance direfteQ. One fei%ed hit enemy, another
hit rival { fom« their creditors, others the hutt>ands
" of women they had seduced. All eagerly grasped
the most wealthy. On a signal given by. Freion,
J the air resounded with ths cries of despair, and
c , numbers of slain were heaped one on another ; Fre-*
s ron cried out, that those who Were not dead should
raise themfeKes; the-wounded dicHe, the canson
thundered again, and all who did not periih by
s their fire were put to the sword. Upwards 0/ Bco

of treason and fedilion, for delivering certain poli

Gentlemen, a
I receive this address with those emotions which *
coincidence in opinion and a pcrfuafion of mutual *
confidence naturally excite. '
Whenever the independent representative* of 1
free and enlightened republicans, bear testimony to c
diltinguilhed merit, they do honor lo a form of go- c
veinment, which in pall ages has not been remarka
ble foiju ft ice, to real and living patriot*. '
It is only by adhering to those leading principles, 3
to whith ytiu allude, that (lability in our council*
can be ptefei ved, aod'-the evils resulting from fluA
uatioH be obviated. While legislators and ftatef
nven arc guided by those principles, our confuta
tion will be secure from violation ; wisdom and mo
deration will cherish 'union and harmony; an 'up
right and well advised policy will couftilt the inter
( eitsoithe public j and inftrtt&ion and moral* •will '
diaiimih ignorance and licentioufnef*.
From a people who know how to eftimxte Kien

The refutation of the House of Re P tefe„t„; rel
Which called ror this report, wa»'tranftr.itted to the

retraS, in a supplementary report of the 30th D»,

, cuhited to givethc House an unfavorable iraprc/Ods
of the .British regulation*.
The egregious error*contained in this short r«.
port of fifteen (hort page* (the work of war thru

, -equal trtißibw of page* to fpecify them 41, This

intercepted letter, ">»* 'L- 1 ivgf^uttior.
It was obvious to those that examined it, »h«
the whole object and tendency »f the report went
to swell the catalogue of fnppofed injurie*, string
. from the commercial regulation* of Britain, and to
-dimi nish those of France, Spain and Portugal, par,
ticularly the former by oveilooking importantdif.
eliminations in our favor 011 the part of Britain*

, t-he moA prominent colour*, while, on the other
hand, the disadvantageous'reftriftiont of the other
nation* were grouped in the back ground and tri
fling preferences brought forward and swelled ina
immense benefit*.
So'eager was the secretary in Ae pursuit of hi*
favorite objefl, vi - 2. to entangle the United State*
1 into altercations with England, which could only
ifTue in war, that he not only advanced in fipport
of kit commercial proportions, theories directly
the reverse of those he had elaborately inculcateditt ,
his Notes 011 Virginia, but he even flatly emtradid* y
id in one page a maxim of government which he bad
emphatically laid down no farther b?.tk tl.ao in the
\preceding page, and dated, with confidence, aw*-

riet which he had strongly condemned in hi* Ntxt*
