[_N.r.Pap.~] By his grace the Duke tf Buccleugb, lord lieu tenant of the county cf Mid Lothian. As it is evident, from the riotous snd disorderly resistance which taken place in some of the neighboring; counties to the execution of the militia nft, that the most ijifamous misrepresentations have been used to millead the people, and to prejudice them against a meafur» which but a few months before was loudly demanded by the whole nation, the ford lieifteiiant thinks it proper to do all in his to cnunteraft the ef forts of the feditiom, explain to the people the tftje meaning of the militia aft, in so far as they ire concerned When the aft is properly explained to them, he is fat isficd that the people themselves will fee thro' the designs of those who have attempted to deceive them, ar.d who would excise them to resist an aft which gives to this country j a force which has always bee;i the pride of England, is justly conlidered by all ranks there as their belt and most constitu tional dtfence. 1 mo. The whole of Scotland is to raise but 6000 men, while England has at pre sent nearly 50,000 militia aftualiy embodi ed, and 6o»oeo supplementary, or addition al militia, who have been trained, and are all ready to be called at a moments warning. 2 do. The age is limited by the aft to young men between 19 and 23 inclusive, of all ranks and degrees. This age lias obvi ously been felefted by the Legislature, in order that the burden may fall as lightly as possible on those who are fit tied in life : few of that age being married or fettled in busi ness. 3 tio. In older to make the burden still lighter, several exceptiu-.s > jye„(fcajed in the aft, particularff *ll articled clerks and ap prentices, and every man having more than two children born ia wedlock. Tiie reason ajid utility of these exceptions are obvious. 4to. In faft, it ;s a volunteer militia ; for it is declared, tliat,jfiii any county the requi site number of able, and fufficitut men shall turn out as volunteers for the militia, no ballots shall take place. Tliefe volunteer militiamen may be of any age, pro Tided they are .fit for service, and will be received at a ny time before the ballot. jto. In such counties white there shall be a ballot, it is calculated that the lot will fall only on one man in 8 or 10 on the lifts. 6to. The men so balloted for are not o bliged to serve in person, but may find fub ftitutei of any age, provided they are fit for service. 7mo. Neither the whole or any part of the militia shall, on any account, be carried or ordered to go out of Scotland. This is expressly enafted by feftion 55th t)f the aft so that the people will fee how fliamefully they have been tlecerV-d by those. who would persuade flienV that't'hey would be sent to o/to foreign countries ; and so far are th?y from being liable to be draughted into other regments, that it is enafted by feft. 34.

That if any officer or other pej.fpn shall attempt to enlist any m)litia;ppH juto, any other regiment, such officer fl;ajl ji very pffence, forfeit 201. sterling, Wild tht enliftmeut is to be void, and further* to pre vent the militiamen, even if inclined to en list, fronl doi:og fu, they are liable toimpVi- 1 fonmint if thev fmpofe tbeftifelves on offi- : cers, and deny that they are militiamen. * j 9mo, The pay of the militiamen is to be > tilt iatne with the army, which is now raised to one (hilling per day, which, befxdes lodg ing, clothing, and other advantages, makes the lituation of a militiaman superior to most day labourers, and to many kinds of tradesmen. They are farther entitled to Chelfea, and every, other privilege belonging to the mili tia of England,. : iomo. I:i England each patifh generally fubfcribes,to form a fund for providing sub stitutes, so that the burden falhf lightly on the men who do. not chufe to "serve m per son. The'fame mode may be adopted in Scotland. 11 mo. It is «lfo to be obfervW, that the ; officers to be appointed to command tht ttti , litia (if embodied) are to be eotnpofed of I the gentlemen of landed properly in the counties where such companies of corps are to be raised—they will naturally make the service as little burthenfome as poffiblt to those under their command', harvmg-a mutu al interest with them, that the country should be as little as possible deprived of their labour and assistance, either as manu faftnrers or husbandmen. The few upon whom the lot may fall will have an opportunity of making themselves known by their good conduft and regular behaviour to those gentlemen of property under whose command they maybe placed, and by such conduft secure to themselves and their families in future, their good will and patronage. After this faithful explanation of the aft, and from the accounts which the lord lieii tenant has received of the general good dis position of the people of, this county, his grace flatters himfelf, that every thing will be condufted in Mid Lothian with peace and quietness :—but he thinks it his duty to warn those who may be othcrwife dispos ed, that he and his deputies are determin ed to enforce obedience' to the laws of the land, and to support the civil powers in the execution «f tlrrfr duty—-If, after this no tice, any unlawful opposition or' tumult takes place, those concerned will have them selves to blame for the confequenctte-; and all persons will take notice, that every land holder and farmer, and every houf holder, high or low, rich or poor, is ,iable by law, to bear his proportion of any loss or damage fliilained by any person from the violenoe c*fa mob. BUCCLEUGH, x.ord Lieut. Foreign Intelligence. PARIS, Sept. 2. Much talk has been made refpefting the great quantities of English cloths which have lately been brought into the Republic from Prujjla, Hamburg, Batavia, The Di rectory has published a mefTa'ge on the fub jeft ; —in which they inform, that they have authorized at Rouen the importation of 187,247 ells of blue cloth for cloathi'ng of the soldiers ; 4,100 ells of blue cloth" for regimentals ; 11,500 ells fcarfet for facings &c. and 359,500 ells of blue serge and white fh lloolis for lining. All thew arti cles were imported in execution of a con trhft concluded between the CommiGiorier of the Executive Direftory at Berlin ; and Citizen TreTcow, a Prussian merchant, who on the security of the diamonds of the Re public, deposited with .him, engaged to furniffi them, provided they were fuffered to be imported free from duty. At Havre, Rouen and Dunkirk 220,000 ells were also, permitted to be imported from j Germany, as also 3,251 pieces from Ham burg, and 132 bales from, other places. " The Impossibility," fay the Directory, "of obtaining in France, on credit, the necessa ry cloth for the. moft,.prcffing cloathiog of the troops, and the opportunity which of j fered to procure it frum abroad for tSefts which French merchants would not have ac cepted, and partly for bills, making part of the contribution of a German Power, the payment of which was by-no means certain, induced the Direftory to fanftion these tranlaftions, truly advantageous for the Re public, and without which both the land and sea forces would have been expo fed to the utmost want. The importatian of these articles, free from duty has not been attended with any Joii to the national Trea sury, becaiile without this co::dition it would have been neceflary to pay a much higher price, and the contractors, who re ceived bills in payment, would never have agreed to advance the duty.

A very remarkable cafe of falfe imprifen ment was tried at the afiizes of Rofcommon, before the hon. justice Finucane and a very refpeftable jury, wherein Alexander Col vill was plaintiff, and the right hon. Charles Lord Vifeount Dillon, defendant. The cae fhted was, that the plaintiff was on Sunday the 12th of January, 1794, arretted on a pretended charge of felony by two constables, who bound the plaintiff with hemp ropes, and Wrought him a prifo* ner to Loughlin, before his lordfliip. That his lordfliip told the plaintiff' there were in formations sworn again ft him for flieep deal ing ; and that his lordllyp further told the plaintiff that he had an order from govern ment ta transport any perfen of ba<f char after to Botany Bay, and that he would fer.d the plaintiff there the next day ; that his lordship then gave verbal orders to. faM constables to take said plaintiff to the black hole ; as they were taking plaintiff to the black-hole, they were met by a ferjeant of capt. Dillon's company, who offered plain tiff a ftnlling to enlist him in said company ; that plaintiff having rtfufed to enlist, o\ accept as the shilling, was then very fevere-' ly bound with ropes and put into the black hols ; that the black-holt is a dark damp, arched vault, fUuate under old ruins in the demesne of hisHordfliip, to which there was neither light or air admitted, but through, a small spike-hole cut through a fingleftone; that the black-hole is not a public prison or bridewell, but used as a place of confinement by lord Dillon only. That the person cal led captain Dillon is the supposed natural son of his lordship, and that hislordfhip pro cured for him feme in the army on the terms of his raising men, to effect which, that his lordfliip used fu£h means as his rank and power in the country enabled him to put in execution. That on the 13th January, plaintiff was brought from the black-hole into'lord Dillop's preftnee, mid after several efforts to intimidate plaintiff by charges ps fclon v, his lordfhjp declared there V was evidence fufficient toliaiigth* plaintiff ; and then ordered him tofeebrought to caps. Dillon s barracks, where he was kept about two hours, then hand-cuffed, and again put into the.btficl-Lolc. From Sunday tl;e 12th of .January, to the Ift of February, 1794, plaintiff was kept n prisoner without any lawful authority, and for the raoft part con fined in the blcckrlioW.b'ut fometirfces ia the barracks—that he was bound wifli ropes, and otherwifr treated with great "cruelty, particularly that he was for 2 5 hours of his said confinement in the black-holt, hand-cuff ed to one Henry Dart, who, among several others, was sent there by the said lord Dil lon That the plaintiff by his confinement in the back-hole, found himfclf grown very weak, his health otherwise much im paired ; 'that during plaintiff's said confine ment several efforts by threats and promlfes were made by capt. Dillr.n, his ferjeant,and feme .of his recruiting p3rty, and by lord Dillon personally, to induce the plain-iff to enlist, which he obflir.ately refufed ; that Mi. Charles CofLllo, who is the plaintiff's landlord, hearing of his confinement, sent his agent to Lord Dillon, to know for what offence plaintiff was confined, but if there were informations sworn against bi'm for fe lony, rti'St he might be sent to the county goal ; aipon which application, and no in formation of any kind appearing agair.ft the plaintiff, he was.set at liberty.° fof.c: time . .ter, at the plaintiff's instance, Mr!"
