PARIS, October 8-
The minider plenipotentiary of Portu- 1
gal has set out on his return to Madrid. *
He was not in podeffion of fufficient pow- '•
ers, but it he received those of a more ex- '
tet.live nature from his court, and more 1
conformabl to the toMes of the French go- 1
vernment, it is probable enough that the '

The Declaration ofW.t by he Ottoman '

speculation on the probable corfequence cf 11

volved in it, and fatally fc.r himfclf, perhaps,
has invited hi word enemy to protcft him 11
from his old friend. The French e.ideavor-
• ed in vain to reconcile tlie Porte to the me- f
ditated descent upon Egypt. All their de- 11
elarations of fiiendfhip were unavailing, and j
the minitUr of the Grand Seignior, at St.

Emperor in the threatened criiis. and to '
express a hope, that if the Ottoman force
fhou'd be removed from guarding the Rufii

to I'C Gurner, ti:e Van ihip of the French line, 1
Five of our Ihip,-. went a-head, and brought I
tip oil the land (id* of th; French. The ad- c
miral's own division anchored on the off lide *
11- ot the French—thus placing their line to the
Id. fird Blip a-ftern of L'Orient, which formed '
w- a centre and angle of the French line, be
x- tweerj two (ires.—The /hips in tlie rear in x
, re the French line were, for lome hours, mere '
o- idle IjieCtators of the action, until some of ' J
he our (hlpsdiftu;;aged in the van, led down to 1
he attack then*. e
Upon th_* Cnllodcn grounding, the Alex- 0
j jflMcr and L ander were sent to her affiltance,
to endeavor to get her od". Finding this '
jn inmracticable, the Alexander made fiiii, and
i!t -00K her datum 011 the fide of L'Orient, op

m '"tended Lying his fly.p npnn the bo'.Y of the

e . accident !he swung upon her broadfido, and
in that {ituation !]>e sustained the heavy fire
J ! of I.'Orient, until that fliip ble.v un.
t< L'Oiient blew up about ten o'clock at

0 Ihe Alexander had fuffered much both in

j_ bore up for the French fiiips in the lear of
. their line, which were attacked in fucceffi
,e nby oivr.diipa as their opponen'shad (truck
in the Van.
0 When Le Guillaume Tell and Le Gener-
D eaux, with the two frigates, fled from the ' *
n scene of aflion, the Zealous, commanded j v
by Captain Hood, with a noble ardor pur-
sued them, and was actually firing upon both ! l ' c
e ' the line of battle ships, when the Admiral j
t judged it prudmt to call him back to the
j flee'. |ba
n The engagement commenced at five o' ,
e clock in the afternoon of the id of Augult,
t and continued, with little abatement, until ! S
between one and two next morning; from I
n this time until five the firing on both fides ;
slackened very considerably, when the con- !
j fli(ft was renewed ; and Aeon after the scene '
terminated in the glory and triumph of the
( British fleet, the deflruftion of two French
(hips of the line and two frigates. . t ' l

f rtfpefting this ever memorable event.] 1 1 j
The reason of Admiral Nelson's miffing 01
£ the French fleet originally, was the falfe in- j lc
1 tel'igence given to him by a neutral vedel, 'Ji
. or, perhap«, one sent on purpose to deceive
him. He was told that the French fleet
had left Malta three days earlier than the lt
truth; and therefore, fappofing them to be
far advanced, he made a diredt cut to Alex- t( !
andria, whillt Buonaparte went round bv ?"
t Candia. '
Leaving Sicilv the second time, he touch
ed at the Morea, (Greece;) and learning
f that the enemy had passed Candia, about 'T
33 days before, and had dood from whence,
to the South ead, he again fleered a direst »'
courfe for Alexandria, though in little hopes t
, "f finding them, lie locked into that port, |

ly fair, both fr»r thid, and for approaching i le;
the fleet ; but Unfortunately, in rounding ani
the reef, the Culloden, the leading ship,
commanded by the gallant Troubridge, ran f ro
aground, and could not be got at all into f !X ,

fillen several leagues adern) to fig\t 13 of He

The enemy began firing as soon as our

again ft \\ illiam Blour.t. The time being
so Ihort betwixt the receipt of the A

House of Representatives with refpeft to mt

"May it pleaft this Honorable Court, ho
" The Committee of Managers conceive, gy
that m consequence of the meiTage received hor

np Tlie president was about to put the queL !
of tion on a pollponement; when
ird Mr. D-dlas wiflied to know whether any j
ir, record had been made of the non appearance j
*ie ot Mr, Blount. This, he conceived, ought
at- not to be done, as he and Mr Ingtrfoll ap- ■
eir peared as Counsel in his behalf,
lis The President answered that Mr. Blount's [
ry name had yesterday been called, and his ab- j
all fence barely noted.
or Mr. Ingerfoll Hated, that he had applied
m to the Clerk of the Senate at the commence-
ment of the Seflion, and informed him that
.11 Mr. Blount had appointed himfelf and Mr.
ta Dnllas his Counsel, and requested he would
lie inform him wheu any fttps were taken in

of j dressing a letter to the Senate on the fabjedl

" I upon the business, he milled their client
is ( would not fuffer on account of his absence.

1- informed by the Clerk of Counsel being ap
-9 pointed, but had not a&ed upon the buiinefi
*s till this day.
The Prelident was about to take the que
ls flion on a postponement in the usual way of

» Mr. Read hoped the qneftion cn this, and
all other fu jeifls which might come before

her being aflced his opinion separately, as
was the custom in all other Courts of lu

made to the contrary, he fliould proceed to -I
take this queflion according to the usual f«

The President then informed the Mana
gurs of the impeachment on the part of the
- House of Representatives, that this Court
t will be ready to receive them oa Monday
* next at twelve o'clock. a |
1 she Managers then withdrew ; when h
Mr. Read rose, and said the impropriety
of taking tli<s sense of the Court #n the que
flion which had been decided, must be ap
parent to all. It was lowering the dignity
™ and solemnity of so high a Court, to proceed -
in the decision of quellions, as if the Senate
were in their legislative capacity. It
1 usual, in Courts of Jultice of every descrip
tion, for the Judges to be applied to fepa
; ratcly for their apinions ; and that in all fu
* ture proceedings this mode might be adopt*
ed, he made a motion to that efFeft.
" Mr. Bingham thought, if any regulations j!
were neceflary on this fubjed, it would be g ]
much mere proper to make th«m in their ni
legislative capacity, than in their capacity "
„ a .« Judges. He did not think it very dignified "
f to . r Judges to be arguing a question of this
kind. Mr. B. said, that the mode adopted
had been that which he had heretofore seen
j pra&ifed on a similar occasion.

Salem, December 11.
Our government is under a moral ob
ligation formally to DECLARE WAR Pe
against Finance—or the principles upon
which their late measures refpe&ing her
have been founded, must be abanded as "I
falfe. It is true those measures would #n|
have been fuflicient to have roused any on
nation, po fie fling one spark of national 0 c
ho or or felf-refpe«Tl, or feeling any ener
gy in her ftfources, either to propose an
honorable accommodation, or to declare E!<
an open and honorable war. But this last ih!
act is left for our government. It is true A
this formality *'ill not much alter our re
lations to France, but it will very materi- 1
ally affeft our internal situation ; for until
that is done, France will not abandon her
hopes here; her secret agci t. >vill be
more induftroufly employed than ever ; J
and divisions will be constantly excited of
and fomented i>y them. But that a£t Nc
would take us at once out of our present
amphibious situation, and crush the French A r ii
party in this country. At the fame time T r
. 1 * oir
it would not create an enemy, but only rv,
put us in a situation to aft with more anc
energy against the enemy that has alrea
ty attacked us.—Every nicafure yet taken r
by government against France, has been
opposed by men who have afterwards i
been convinced that it o ut ht to have Sta
b.en taken befcrj ; and this will tin- on !
doubtcdly Jliare the fate of the reft. d
