LONDON Nov. 9.
It was generally expected late de
finition of the French squadrons off the
Coast of Ejypt and Ireland, would produce
a violent explolion in the interior of France,
again ft the present rulers ; or that the latter,
t"> prevent this explosion would break off the
negotiations at Raftadt, and make a sudden
irruption both into Germany and Italy, to
•weaken by some important success 011 the
■continent, the imprelfion naturally produced
by their late misfortunes at sea.
That no explosion has taken place in the
interior, is to be ascribed to a want of ener
gy on the part of the malcontents, who have
110 rallying point to go to, nor any foreign
support to depend on. The French govern
ment has not broken off the negotiations at
Raftadt, probably from a dread left some dis
astrous occurrence on the continent should
complete its own disrepute, and drive its en
emies to despair. It is conscious that the
public opinion, to which it is in a great mea
sure indebted for its fucceiTes, especially in
Italy, is now turned against it, in confe
rence of the numberbfs vexations imposed
on the people, w'fiofc hopes have been cruelly
Mailed,' and who, inttead of being delivered
from oppression, have become the victims of
the iv.oft Ihanieutl perfidy. The Directory
is fearful left the fmalLft check should pro
duce a renewal of the Sicilian Vespers ; and
this l'ear must have been encrealed by the en
thufiaftie joy displayed by all the powers on
the Continent, on the occasion of the late
victory obtained by Lord Nelson.
The ridiculous fyftevn of notes and coi.nt
ternntes, has therefore refunded its ufualcourfe
at the Congr; fs of Raftadt, and will proba
bly be pursued during the whole winter—
The last demands preferred on eat'n fide, will
furnifh ample matter for new discussions.
Under favor of the protracted negotiations,
the impreilions made by our triumph will be
weakened ; the Propagandists and other
French emifTarieswillcontinue their exertions,
they will endeavor above all to form a party
in the country of the Orisons ; and we should
not wonder at the directorial arnjies making
themselves next spring matters of that coun
try ; having pofleffion of which, they would
find it aneafytafk to over-awe the numerous
malcontents in Switzerland, and to penetrate
into the Tyrol, which would then lie expos
ed to the French armies.
It is hoped, however, that these circum
flances, which cannot be unknown to the
court of Vienna, will induce it to adopt the
neceflar) measures for disconcerting the Di
rectorial projects. The court of Naples,
■which perseveres in a warlike attitude, in
spite of the threats of the DireCtoiy, seems
to rely on the support of the Austrian Cabi
net Over which the Queen of Naples poflefles
& deciflve- iiiiluence j l.ifl accounts from
Berlin, it appears that the Prussian court is
more favorably disposed for the coalition of
the North. The march of the Ruffian
troops will probably fix the. irresolution of the
cabinet of Vienna, whose final determina
tion is expefted hy the return of the Courier
dispatched thither last week, and whose an
swer is likely to prove favorable. We can
not at present fay more on this important
fubjeCt.
A n alarming riot lately happened at Brest,
eccafioned by the following circumttance :
The Managers of the last requisition for the
Army of England in that dittriCt, came to
the house of a man who worked in the dock
yard there, and were received by his foil
whom they wanted for the lifts. He being
unwilling to go, hard words and a fcuffle en
sued, which ended in the young man's being
carried off. t
As they were proceeding, the father met
them on h s return from work, and remon
strated, but in vain for the release of his son.
This meeting soon drew a large croud toge
ther, by whom the officers of government
were violently abused. The old Shipwright
harrangued them, and having said with great
warmth, " that he saw no occasion for an
Army of England, while all the labor of
Brest went to serve the Navy of England,"
he was knocked dovfn by one of the officers.
The meb hereupon became outrageous, the
officers were fever' !v wounded, and hardly
able to escape from their fury to the arsenal.
Here the soldiers were called out, but shew
ed so little, difppfitiop to interfere, that the
whole town wa? soon under the direction of
the mob ; in which iVite it was left, when
this account was sent lway. ,
Sincethebanifhment of Carnot,the French
affairs have been going backwards ; and yet
this man, to whom tfce Republic owes so
much, is now a fugitive and a vagabond on
the face of the earth—perhaps knocking at
the door of some German Prince to beg an
asylum.
Lewins, the ambafltaoUr of the United
Irifhmenat Paris, it feeias, is taken among
others on board the Hoc) f. This gentleman
probably will find that be wants one great
quality of AttibafTadors, inviolability.
The golden anchor, now worn by the la
dies, and suspended fro# the neck by a chain
on the bosom, must be considered as a very
encouraging compliment to the unexampled
gallantry of our naval defenders. It not
only bids them hope, but points out the scene
ef bliss.
The " establishment" of Buonaparte in
Egypt, as he modefthr oblerves in his letter
to the Directory, reminds one of thepleafant
origin of the pbrafe—>" catching a Tartar."
In one of the wars,between Austria and
the Porte, an Irish f>ldier in the service of
the former, in the attick of a squadron of
confederate Tartars, e {claims —" By J —■
I've caught a Tartar."— u Bring him her,
then." replies hiscomride ; —" / can't," re
joins Paddy :—" Why, then bring yourself
—" He won't let me.'" again cr.es Paddy ;
for, hi faCt, poor Paddy was lumfelf tlie Tar
tar's prisoner !
The generals Buonaparte, and Holt seem
readily to have acquired the fame Hibernian
demonstrative logic.
If v'.ic cam-. \'s fijiiadrons do venture out,
it nnift be confelledthat they do not run much
hazard of the perils of the sea. They sel

The army qf Egypt has subsisted for 17
days on lemons a:id water-melons alone,
which seem to be the happiest fruits of Buo
naparte's expedition.
Sir William Scott, the new judge, is to
have his salary increased to nearly the a
mount of what a Paifne judge receives in the
other courts.
It is a memorable faCt, that the French
have 101 l within the last two months, 50,000
soldiers and sailors. near 300 transports, I 4
men of war, 14 frigates, and a considerable
number of smaller armed vefTels, without
gaining any one single advantage.
Sir James Marriott has resigned his feat
at the admiralty court. Sir William Scott
succeeds him.
A late address of the French Proconsul at
Rome, on the removal of the five Directors,
concludes with these emphatical words,
" The Great Nation wills it, and its will
must be obeyed." This I 3 giving Freedom
with a vengeance—but after all, this Great
Nation has neither freedom nor will of its
own.
The French Dire£\ory denonnces all go

not forgetting Divine Providence itself.
An Apiarian Society, for encouraging the

The Pefhwa has lately transmitted to the
Directors of the East India Company, two
chests, containing a variety of jewellery,
forming a complete eolleCtion of the orna
ments appertaining to the Indian drefles.
There are among them some beautiful pearls.
They are to be placed in the Oriental Muse
um, preparing in the New Buildings of the
India House.
The Public are highly indebted to Sir J.
B. Warren for breaking through the eti
quette which is always observed on similar
occasions, that of not opening inftruflions
addrefled to another Officer. When Sir
John fell in with the Kangaroo sloop of
war, off the coall of Ireland, her Captain
told him he was in search of Commodore
Home, with sealed inftru&ions from Admi
ral KingfmiH ; concluded that the letter
contained information about the French
fleet, he venrured to open it, and according
ly had such full information as enabled him
mcft fortunately to come up with the Brest
squadron.
Among the British Officers who arc go

November 19.
Saturday Thomas Stretch was brought be
fore the Lord Mayor at the Mansion-house
charged by Mr. Weft, of the Poultry Coun
ter, he being the prisoner who cut the iron
bar of the window, and made his escape from
that prison on the 3 1 ft of December, 1796 ;
and for the apprehending of whom a reward
of 501. was offered. Stretch was porter to
Mr. Watson, a capital merchant in Mark
lane, whom he had robbed at different times,
to a confiderabe amount, and was commit
ted for the fame when he made his escape.
He was discovered to Ve a man pofTefTed of
houses, and 2501. in Bank Funds, all of
which was pretty ftri&ly looked after,
though they never could find him till Friday
last, when notice was given to Mr. Weft,
that 5 61. of the stock was transferred that
day to a Publican in Gold-bath Fields, at
whose house the Prisoner was taken, when
he went to receive his money.
PORTSMOUTH, Nov. 2s.
The French Admiral Sercie, who com

DUBLIN, November 1.
letters from Rathangan, relate an out
rage committed near that place, scarcely pa
ralleled even in the atrocities of the present
rebellion : The house of a respeCtable clergy
-nan in that neighborhood was broken into
on Tuesday night last, by a gang of Kildare
rebels; his two daughters, lovely and ac
complilhed young -women, brutally outraged
before his face ; his house rifled and himielf
mirdered ! The diobolical villains who had
perpetrated these horrors were loon pursued,
nd some of them overtaken by a party of
;-allant yeomen, who, in their honest indig
nation, facrificed three of them on the spot.
)ne of the rebels killed was their leader, a
■""elJoW named Hamilton, on whose person
were found no less than nine gold watches,
be fides a quantity of diamonds and valuable
trinkets, the spoils of hife former expeditions.
Oil Saturday night last the hcufe of Tho
mas Fifi'.er, Esq. near Donate (County of
IWicklow) was attacked by a large gang; of
rebels ; three of the Duniarvin Yeoman: v,
, who were retwrnig home after having
| riedan express, hearing the tumult from the
Inroad, gallantly road up to the h®«fe, andat
i tacked the aflailants, two of whom they killed
find put the reft to flight. The (hots being
heard in Don-trd, a party of the 89th regi
ment quartered there, immediate ly let out for
the place, and met the flying rebels, several
. of whom they killed, and took some prison
ers. The killed, upon an examination of
their bodies, proved to be persons of the
neighborhood who had obtained prote&icns,
and were living apparently in perfctt quiet
! m the country; they were, however, armed
with pikes at the time of their being shot.
Last Monday night three private soldiers
of the Worcester militia, quartered in a house
between Muilingar and Port Lemon, were
murdered in their beds with lhocking ag
gravations of wanton cruelty, by an armed
gang of rebels. A party of the neighboring
I yeomanry hadily afiVmbled, and pursued the
murderers nearly fifteen miles, into the
King's county, where unfortunately they
| could overtake only four of the villains, twe
of whom they killed on the spot, and brought
the other two, wounded and prisoners, into
Muilingar on Tuesday evening. One of
them has long been Avell known to be an
aflive rebel, and so deeply involved in the
treason of the Irish Urfion, as to render it
veiy probable that the discoveries which he
has offered to make will prove of the highed
importance.
CONSTANTINOPLE, OA 22.
By the inti-lligence received here from
Egypt, fomethirg decisive must fucn take
place 00 the banks of the Nile. The en
gagement* between the Mamelukes and
Arabs, at/d the French troops, continue on
both fides to be maintained with great üb
(linacy and coll a great deal of bjoodfhed.
The Frerch soldiers were rot perfe&ly fa-
with their lituation, but they adhere
very (ledfaflly to their hero Buonaparte. It
is reported in the French army, that a fe
coud expedition of between five and fix hun
dred fail, with 60,000 land forces, with a
quantity of (lores and provisions, will spee
dily arrive. Every expedient is employed
to keep ufp the spirits of the soldiers.
Buonaparte was (till at Cairo, and his ar
my was advatitageoufly encamped on the
neighbouring heights, which were surroun
ded by a numerous body of Arabs and
Mamelukes. The General never left the
town to visit the camp without a strong es
cort.
The French army fuffers particularly
from the want of medicines. Hitherto
Buonaparte has received fupplie9 by the
Nile. These, however, will soon be cut off
and he will be totally cut off from the gar'
rifoos which he has in Alexandria and Ro
fetta.
A number ef Ruffian vessels with (lores,
&c. have passed through the Channel, and,
many more are expected.
Letters from Leghorn, dated 19th o£to.
ber, received this day, date that one of the
Tuscan (hips which had been prefled from
Civita Vecchia, to carry French troops, has
returned from Alexandria. By order of
Government, the Captain of this veffsl has
been prohibited from giving any intelligence
becanfe he is previously to be examined by
the Government. The sailors, however,
(late, that the neutral transport (hips at
Alexandria have been allowed by the French
to fail, and that the Engii(h had allowed
them to proceed home undisturbed. At that
time preparations were making by the Eng
lish to "burn the remaining traiifports.

We are indebted to Capt. Waddle, of the

left the 31 (I of December lad, for the
following (ketch.
Lord St. Vincent's fleet had disappeared
off Cadiz some time previous to her failling,
in consequence of which seven fail of Spa
rifii (hips of war, with several regiments of
troops, a"d a French frigate, which had
been laying two years in that port, availed
themselves of the opportunity and procee
ded to sea. It wae said they were bound to
Surrinam.
The English fleet were fetn from the

were supposed from the badnels of the wea

from whence, in a (hort time they would re
turn to their former (lation.
There wer« several small French priva
