August 4.
from the Executive Directory to j
the Council of Five Hundred, of the 14th
Thermidor (Aug. 1.)
" Citizen Representatives,
" The executive Direftory hasjuft given !
the second decision on the urgent payment
to he made in the second decade of Thermi
dor ; the demands, originating from the 1
moll prefling wants, amounted to about
twenty millions. In order to maintain the I
public fervicc, it was neceiTary to consider
the presumptive .receipt of the departments
during the last decade, and that of the na
tional treasury during the pre ent, as funds
actually to be disposed of. The sum total
of these fundi it has not been possible to
rate higher than at 6,620,000 livres, which
have been distributed in such manner as ap- '
peared tnoft conformable to fubijfting laws,
•nd the fupoort of the public under
the difficult circumstances wherein we are
placed. . There remains a deficit of about
14 millions for the next decade, to which is
to be added the expence of tlie ten follow
ing days. Whatever calculations may be
made, citijens representatives, it must be i
evident to you that'our present means are !
not tifficient. From the ftatsments tranf- '
mittiM to you a few days since by the na
tional treasury, it is clear that we cannot ex- 1
pedt to receive 23 millions of specie during
the month of Thermidor. With means so
feeble, it will be impofiible to maintain the
fervice ; and the difficulties it la- ,
hours under, renders its situation worse eve
ry day. The (late of things deserves your
attention the more, as it might be altered
by making use of the resources which the re
public has yet left. The persuasion, citizen
representatives, that these resources still ex
ist, has hitherto supported our courage and
animated our hope ; but it is time to im
prove them. The minister of finances has
pointed out some of them in the report an
nexed to this mefTage. The dire&ory has
met with frequent opportunities to invite
you to examine into these resources, and the
danger of the present moment obliges them
to repeat the request. From a con vision
that the adoption of proper measures for re- f
storing public credit would produce the most
fortunate change, the direftory sincerely wi(h
that you may tak« them into fpcedy con
federation.

A magistrate in the department of the
marine, writes from Chalons under the date '
of the 31ft of July. "The following is
the order of the day, which, however, may
be changed perhaps to-night, for the utmoll ;
variation and uncertainty prevails in the I
movements of the troops. The cantonment 1
of 10, coo men is not to take place ; the |
troops have received orders to retrogade ;
the four regiments of Chafleurs had like
wise been ordered to retrogade ; but last
night they received new orders to remain,
one at the Rheims, the second at Epernay,
the third at Chalons, and the fourth at Vi
try."
Why these three thousand horse receiv
ed orders to remain in cantonments in the
departments of the Marne, while the other
troops
We read in the Sentinelle of to-day, an
article of intelligence which seems only to
have been set on foot with an intention of
calumniating the legislative body. "It
appears very certain, fays the journalist,
that hostilities with Austria-are recommenc
ing ; thanks to the motions of Jourdan,
Dumolard and co."

Hague, July 26. Citizen Noijl, minister
of the French republic, has demanded that
all French emigrants should be enjoined to
quit the Batavian territory, according to the
terms of the treaty of alliance. It was im
mediately decided, that the proclamation
formerly iflued against them, should be exe
cuted with the greatest rigour, and that for
this piirpofe letters should be dispatched to
the provinces.

The arrival of Angereau, whose aid
<\e-camp has been at Paris since yesterday, is'
this moment announced. For what purpose
he has been ordered here, will foon'appear.
The Directory are said to have held a ve
ry stormy fitting last night.
The report of the suspension of the nego
tiations at Lisle, gains ground. The ncgo
ciators, they fay, tiave shewn mlich confi
dence, t'fteem, and reciprocal cordiality in
their conferences, but bound by their in
ftruitions, they are very far at present frojn
drawing'towards the conclusion of the trea
ty ; it is even looked upon as impoflible, if
the directory do not abate the pretensions
•which it has advanced. What are we to
' expeft, if it be true, ns we have reason to be
lieve, that a member of government has
been heard to fay, " It is only the royalist
fa&iuu which is desirous of a peace with
England."
According to private letters from Italy,
the negociation there meets with many diffi
culties, and that which appears moil insupe
rable, is the clause ftip,ulating the integrity
of the Germanic body. The manner in
which the emperor has taken poiVeffion of
the Germanic body, haa offended our gov
ernment, and the conferences have" been on
the point of off, and hostilities
re-commencing. Fortunattly this resolution
was not carried into effeft, and the negocia
tion still continues.' The which has
been fufpe&ed to be entertained ofdifTolving
the national representation by force, while it
gave our enemies hopes of witnefiing an
internal commotion, re-animated their hopes
and increased their pretensions.
It was yesterday reported, that Hoche had
written 011 the 29th ult. to the minister of
war, a letter, in which he gives in his resig
nation as general of the army of the Sambre
and Menfe.
On the following day, the fame general
persisted in his and demanded a
pafTport to go to Switzerland.
What may lead us tofufpeft the truth of
this resignation, is, that the reasons assigned i
for it do not appear fufficient. It is said, !
for instance, that after having given orders '
to the army to march again ft.Pariij, and after
having prepared them for this expedition, j
the countermand of the order produced so j
bad an effeft, that the general, diO-ontented,
would hot commit himlelf to the chance of
newinftances of irresolution, and consequent
ly frefh murmurs.
The division of general Joobert have pre
sented a violent ac!dref» to the direftory.
The extract from the report of Pichegru,
in which he addresses hirafelf to the armies
of the republic, ha 9 been ported up with the
greatest fupcefs in the department of Marne,
and thefoldiers have appeared to hear with ,
fatisfa&ion the voice of him who has so of
ten led them to vi&ory, and who has jilways
shewn himfelf sparing of the blood of French
men. In (hort, those who have sent for
the troops, if they are well acquainted with
the circurtrftances which have attended the
march of the different corps, may now learn
that their attempt would have failed in more
than one particular.
On the 18th July last, the emperor caused
it to be notified te the diet at Ratifbon, that j
he was about to conclude a definitive and j
separate peace with the French republic, 1
which gave much uneafi/iefs to the diet at
large. This news*is confirmed in a private
letter from Ratifbon.
IMPORTANT.
COUNCIL OF FICF HIS\'DitED.
Sitting of July 23. 1
Dumolard called the attention of the
council to a motion of order. " The ho
nor and duty of the legislative body, as
well as the interest of our armies, do not
permit us to remain iilent any longer on
events which amaze all Europe, and are no
where unknown but in -this hall ; I mean
the late tranfadlions in Italy.
" The manifefto ifluad by general Buo
naparte agaipft Lhe state of Venice, has been
read all over Europe. It W4s transmitted
to .you officially by the diredWy on the
27th of last Floreal, and you felt and ex
pre fed a just indignation against the horrid
! outrages committad.
j " Several writers have raised doubts
; against the truth of the fafts fltited in the
manifefto ; but the legislative body thought
' it might Cafely rely on a manifefto fanftL
; oned by the executive power. The mo
! ment was not then arrived to discuss the
; question, whetner war was to be declared
| against Venice. You could not enter upon
1 this discussion, without the direftory hav
j ing given the firft impu'fe, and the direc.
Tory could not commence hostilities, with- .
out acquainting you of it without the least
delay.
" Fame has proclaimed all over the world,
the revolution of Venice; ourtroops have en
tered that city ; the Venetian navy is in our
poffeflion ; that ancient government of Eu
rope is no more, and re-appears under a
democratic form. It is for you to examine
whether the direftory has not violated the
constitution ; whether, in disguised terms,
it has not of its own accord waged war,
made peace, and perhaps concluded trea
ties, the contests of which you are still to
learn.
" The firft experiment was made on Ve
nice, and an attempt no less fuccefsful is
just cbmpleated at Genoa.
" On perceiving such infringements of j
the constitution, it is- natural to conceive
apprehensions of what may hereafter be at
tempted. A contested navigation threat
ens us with a rupture with the Swiss Can
tons ; I am howevej persuaded, that the
wisdom of our gallant commander in Italy,
will ftifle this new germ of division.
" The disastrous time is no more, when
Clootz and his set of Illumines wished to
plant the tree of republican liberty in every
corner of the globe. We Wish to enjoy
our liberty without disturbing other govern
ments.
" I move, ift, That my observations be
referred to the comniiflion appointed on the
20th i-.ift. to examine into the resolutions
adopted by the direftory, with respect to
' the United States of America.
" 2dly. That a message be sent to the
direftory, to obtain the necefTary explana
tion of the events which have taken place
at Venice since the manifefto of
Buonaparte.
" 3dly. That it acquaints us with the
motives, which have prevented its inform
ing the legislative body of these events.
4thly. That it acquaints us of the revo
lutionary proceedings at Genoa, and of the
voluntary and compulsory part which the
' French agents have taken ii. their proceed
ings, and
" sthlyi That it gives us the necefTary
information on our political situation with
! refpeft to the Swiss Cantons."
Bailleul " Dumolayd's speech is a tif-
sue of abfuriities. On the 27th Koreal,
the directory informed the council, that
general Buonaparte had taken the necessary
meafsres to rupel the hoflilities committed
by the Venetians. . It has consequently
performed its constitutional duty.
" The impending hoftihties, it is true,
have lince degenerated into a very serious
war j but this i 3 the general fate of arms.
The Venetian government is no more ; but
the legislative body has been informed of
the motives of the hostilities, in consequence
of which it has been overthrown." The 1
fpeakef concluded with moving the order 1
of the day. (
Guillemardet spoke to the fame effeft as
Bailleul, but the original rtiotion having
been fecondtd by Thibeaudau, was carried, 1
and adopted by the council. ,

PHILADELPHIA,
THURSDAY EVENING, September 21.
Extract of a letter from a gentleman at
Big Tree, on Qenefee River, dated
August 28, 1797.
" The Indians were yesterday in Coun
cil, when a trfej/age, arrived from the In
dians, who were lately hofiiie to our Gov
ernment, informing/ that the Spaniards
were fending amongst all the Indians, re
questing they would unite with them,
which the meflage defircd the Six Nations
would not do. The meflage was imme
diately taken into consideration, and the
Council determined, they would not have
any thing to do with the business. Simi
lar meflages are gone to the Indians a
bout Canada, and I hope, may meet the
lame fate."
