Extraft of a letter, dated Head-Quarters,
Coodiangurry, 2d February, 1797. . (-1
" I baflen to communicate to you the fur
ther operations of the little army under Ma
jor Andcrfon ; the day after I sent you off
my lafl letter we marched from Coodiangur
ry, to a place called Monandeny ; in our
march we were rather unexpeftedly, very
ivarrnly leceived by a party of the Rajah's
people, who were lying in ambush in the
jungle waiting our approach, they saluted
up with a vfery brisk fire of mufquelry, which
we soon returned, at leafl two fold. The
firing commenced firfl in the front of our
line, as we wtte then, in consequence of
Angle Pies, in less than or.e minute the fire
had extended quite to the left, when we
fronted, and fired about twelve rounds by
grtmd riivifionn, which quickly checked the
enemy's impetuosity ; however, they con-
to keep a brisk but irregular fire,
«nd thiw they continued to difput* the way
tfith us, for near five milee, the objeft of
our destination be'ng a Mud Fort belonging
to the etjemy. The European grenadiers
the commencement of the aftion were or
dered in front, tupported by fix companies
ofnative grenadiers, who diilinguiflsed thsm
felves in a very gallant manner, advancing
and firing alternately from about nine o'clock
In the morning until pdfl one, when the
whole drew up in front of the Fort, and
tihr field pieces were brought up to play on
their wooden towers, from which they con
tinued for fom« time to shower vollies of
mufquetry, and defended themfelvcs with
infinite spirit and gallantry until about four
in the afternoon : we were now only wait
ing fertile arrival of the scaling ladders to
storm the place, but here we \tere unfor
tunately disappointed, as the Coolies who
•were bringing them up, alarmed for their
own faFrty threw them down, and run like
brave fellpwe, convinced of the juflnefs of
Hudibras's observation
He that fights and runs away,
May live to fight another day.
About half pafl four, the grenadiers ex
preffwg much impatience for the attack,
they were ordered to ho'.d themselves in rea
diness at a minutes warning, they were ac
cordingly ordered to the attack, when they
marched with theutiuoft alacrity, despising
all kind of fatigue or dangers through a
paddy field knee deep in mud, where the
lofk in shoes was very considerable, mofl of
them being left behind, in the paddy field,
■when the e : nemy perceiving the rapidity of
their movements,they immediately a'bandon
*d the fort, firtl setting it on fire, and our
troops futon got poffeflion of it. —Our loss
giv this occalion has not been so grtat as
might have been expefted, considering the
aukwardnefs of our situation, when firfl at
tacked, I believe the following to be a pret
ty exaft detail about 84 killed and wounded
ten of which are Europeans, viz. t ferjeant,
„I corpor;il and I private killed, and I cor
poral and fix privates wounded, chiefly of
ihf grenadiers, during the following day, a
continual fire was kept,Up by both parties,
but with very little loss on our fide.
On ih« 27th a party confifling of one
hundred and fifty men, were dilpatched for
the fiuydy of ammunition, as they marched
in the night they reached their deflir.ation
without any accident or hindrance from the
enemy, but on tneir return next day, they
fell iu with and were attacked by a strong
party <if the enemy, a reinforcement of one
hundred meit were difpa.ched to their affif
»a«ce and they unfortunately made their
way good jo the camp with the whole of the
ammunition with the loss of thirty men
.killed and wounded. As Jar ais we have
been able to learn, the enemy has Io(loi;e i
hundred and eighty-!!:; killed and two hun- 1
dred and lif.y feveti wounded and oae of ■
their principal commanders. ) ]
On the 30th a meffiige was sent in, that 1
the Rajah was ready to subscribe to wbate- j
ver terms the commiflioners might prescribe, [ ]
! fending in hoflages for the due performance j 1
!of the Agreement; in consequence of whicji J
! the army marched to this place, to wait the ]
iflue of the event.

Letters were yejlerday received from Tran
quebar, which mention the arrival at that port 1
of a vessel from the Mauritius, (the Triton) 1
under Danish colours : the time of her debar- 1
lure we 'mve not learnt. She brings the follow- 1
ing intelligence : That the island yjas well sup- 1
plied, but the inhabitants in continual dread of \
the arrival of agents from the republic, to avenge 1
the insults offered to Brunei and his associate. \
That the Britifhfquadron had left their fta
! tion off the islands, and that three days after
' their departure, the Preneufe frigate, and the \
Brul Gucle Corvette, returned from a cruize 1
' off the coajl of Africa, and anchored in the har
bor.
That captain Lofaci, proceeding from the
: [fie .of France, had approached close to the Jhorc
of Bourbon, when the batteries on that island
opened a heavy fire on the British Jhips, and
which was as warmly returned
| From Bourbon captain Lofaci proceeding 4,0
i Madagascar, where he captured fiveral small
I French vtffels, and dejlroyed a Frermh colony
1 newly formed On that island : wh'tljl
1 tius, captain Lofaci had also captured fevfral
small veffcls, one of which under Danish colours
(Ci-devant Alert Corvette ) he releafid, after
an examination, and detention of fame days.
1 | Surety's squadron had not arrived c.t the
' ijlfnd, when the ship abohiementioned tool her |
j departure, nor had any intelligence whatever

as IRISH SPECULATION!!
ic Sir H. B. Hayes, for the apprehension
t- of whom a reward <?f 2001. was offered by
t- government, for forcibly running away with
:d Miss Pike of Cork, is taken, and in con
t, flnemcnt. We are favoured with the fol
r- lowing particular account of that desperate
of aft : —A letter was sent to the young lady
A at a late hour i« the night, acquainting her
s, that a particular friend of her's was fud
' denly taken ill, and (hewed strong fymp
,e toms of death ; and that if even file set
or out upon the receipt of the letter to fee
this person, it was likely, if very great
3n hade was not made, that death would take
le place before she, Miss Pike, could arrive.
;y The latter immediately ordered her car
ig riagc, after reading the letter, and set out
ne to take a lafl farewell, as /he imagined, of
if- her friend ; on her way, at a place near
;ir Glanmire, about two o'clock in the morn
he ; ing, the carriage was beset by five persons,
en ! one of whom wa* Sir Henry, and carried
ve ! off in triumph to the knight's refider.ee at
Mount Vernott. A ferjiak was put into
the carriage by the party, with Miss Pike,
whofc biinnefs was to soothe the young
lady, and prevent fear from preying fcvere- i
ly upon her. ]
When arrived" at Vernon Mount, Mif6 j '
Pike was eondufted into the house, and in- <
troduced into a room, where a person, al- ;
lodged to be a clergyman, was prepared for* 1 <
performing a marriage cerrmony, in which i
(he was intreated to give her confer,t to fir ]
H. but (he resolutely refuting, he pulled >
out a pistol, and threatened to I
felf if (he did not comply. Although (he |
dill perfiftcd in her refinance, a marriage j t
scrcmony was forced upon her, and (he was < t
obliged to receive a ring, which fts food a* '<■
(he recovered the life of her hands, (he con- j:
temptuoufly threw away. Sir H. compel- j:
led her to follow him into a t»om, where, ' i
having tried in vain for some time every'art i
to induce her to favour his designs, he left i
her confined. ;(
She wag soon after released by a near re- i
lative of the knight, v/ho told the young la- i
dy (he was not to be confined, and if (lie i
would but be fatisfied, and comply with the
intreaties that had been made to her, she
might command the house and every person
in it. The lady's friends, who had been
apprised of this extraordinary adventure, by
this time had reached Vernoa Mount, and
rescued her from the party.
Sir H. B. Hayes is the son of a brewer
at Cork. He is about 35 years old, and
was lately deprived of a company in the

PHIL A DELPHI A,
WEDNESDAY EVENING, t?Of r £MAER 1.
A gentleman who came pafTenger in th e
stage from New-York, states, that, on hi 3
leaving New-York, a refpeftable merchant
of that city informed him, that the Septem
ber packet had arrived at Halifax, and
had brought intelligence of Peace between
England and France.
An arrival at the Southward from Bour
"dcaux, is reported to corroborate the forego
ing information.
The desirable and momentous event of a
' general Peace, tho' left a matter of doubt
by any intelligence hitherto received, will,
in all probability, preclude another cam
paign.
But evils of the moll grievous nature may
still beset this country, (hould the pirates of
the Weft-Indies be fuffered to continue their
lawless depredations on our commerce.
This eonfideration urges in forcible lan
guage the propriety of immediately equip
ping ourJlttle marine.
MetTrs. Girard, Lownrs, and Connelly,
the visiting committee, have been induced,
from the favorable fituatioji of the Hospi
tal, to resign their fuuftions, and in future,
to discontinue their daily vifitsto that place.
The Board of Health of Baltimore, have
reported, that not one death occurred in all
that city Fell's Point included, during the
24 hours ending the 28th inft. at fun rife.

sions being furnifhed by the commissioners
for the above purpose : The former com

that another (hould take up the business of

Wherefore, a number of the former com

The prefeot I conceive is the most proper
for the exercise of charity and ufeful im
provements, perhnp?, and I hope another
will not occur when you. can so well unite
charity and ufefulnefs together. From the
o-reat number of pjrfons who must be thrown
out of their usual employments by thedrea-d
---ful calamity through which we havejuft
pafled,_you ar-; presented with nn opportu.
nity for the exercise of your benevolence by
furnifhing the means of employing them ;
which I propose (hould be by completing
the canal from Delaware to Schuylkill, and
thereby watering the city ; beside the great
atcommodation this will-give to its inhabit
ants, it will be the best means of cleanfin
and watering the streets, and will lessen the
means of fpr«ading the contagion (hould we
"unfortunately be again visited "with that
worftof scourges the Weft-India or yellow
fever. I will offer with diffidence a propo
sal, which I hope some more able hand will
consider of and Improve on, to give employ
to many huwdreds who rnuft be maintained
the ensuing winter, either by finding .them
employ or by your charity without it.—
Let persons in each ward be appointed to
solicit fti'ofcriptions either in money or, by
becoming security for a certain sum to be
borrowed of the banks, to be repaid out of
the firft monies received from the canal, or
by a tiumber joining in a company to pur
chase (hares of the canal stack where a (hare
is more than one per(on would incline to
rifle. This mode if generally qdopted would
not only afford you the fatisfa&ion of re
lieving such of the poor as may be under
the neccffity of partaking'of it, but the prof
peft of averting the fpfeading a like calami
ty (hould it ever be introduced" amongst us.

AI.L that haror may be fair! in favor of the
Role d'F.quipan;e, and on the policy or propriety of
our velTels being furnifhed therewith, will be of
little moment; for, condemn our vefTels to get
plunder our dtar alius arc detemfined to do at all c -
vent". V'c have not one single inftanec of a ves
sels' being liberated which provided with this
important and nrwly discovered proof of the neutrali
ty of property. On the contrary, the tribunals e
■ven in France, would not be baffled in their preda
tory views were we to load our velTels with evi
dences of their neutrality. I am informed our
custom house has lately undertaken to require of
veflels this said paper before a clearance can be ob
tained : how far the officers to whom the manage
ment of that department is eatrufted, are warrant
ed in this flep, I will not presume to determine ;
but it is much to be questioned, Whether our gov
ernment has authorised, and will not condemn a
measure so impolitic and dangerous to the hopes
and mterefts of our merchants and underwriters.
As peace is so near at hand, would it not be ad
vifeable to avoid all measures which may tend to
invalidate our claims for the 15 millions, of which
a large majority of the French nation fay we have
been unjustly stripped ? The general poverty and
misery among the French, owing to the total def
trudlion of manufactures and commerce, has pro
duced a spirit of privateering or rather plunder
ing, which pervades every part of France and her
dominions ; and all the papers we can paffibly fur- I
ni(h our velTels with, will not save one in an hun
dred more than ha« hitherto escaped the fangs of
those robbers of the world. Pea c being not far
off, wc had better atti-nd to the means which may
enable u« to recover what is 1011, than to debar
onrfelves from that hope by an attention to the fu
