'I \ From the [The Scot's-Iriihman is really lorry, that he could not accommodate the language of this friar to the delicate organ's of those for whpfe life it is designed ; but indeed they mull blame the ptrverfe obstinacy of the Muse. He reprefentetl to her the fine mu sical sense of the people- for-whom the song. was to be wrote, and begged of l»er, for once, to exchange her .barbarous pronuncia tion for the fofter tones of a more cultivat ed language', that her " canna's" and " din nas" were become quite intolerable ; but the telly little Scots Gentlewoman grew angry gowk," and gilly-gapas"—(he said that (he had sung her songs in her native dialect to far better folk than him or his fine-eared Jacobins, to whom, (he supposed, he now intended to make his court ; she called him " faufe, ungratefu' tyke," that had it not been for htr " barbarous pronunciation," and her " intolerable cannas and dinnas," hi: name would not be known fix miles from hiscihin, but now it was spread all over the country, and bye and bye it would get into a hook, and be, perhaps carried all over the continent.—But, readers ! you all know how an enraged lady will go on, when her vanity is hurt. The Author attempted sev eral times to interrupt her and at lafl when file paused for want of breath, he again re monftratecl, but to no purpose : (he still ftorm-d, and flatly told him, if he took not the Song in the language (he chose to give it, he might want it.—Unaccustomed as he is to female brawls, what could the poor poet do ?—He took up his pen', and quiet ly submitted—And he is sure, that numbers of the good people for whom this Song is in tended, who are married men, will applaud him for h\sprudence.—He has, however so far prevailed with the crusty Lady, as togive the Song a very tweet a/?, which he hopes, will, in foine measure, atone for tbe harsh ness of the rJords.~\ A NEW SONG FOR THE JACOBINS, BY THE SCOTS-IRISHMAN.

The State that's fettled down iii peace, Is like a braw green tree, That grows upo' a river's bank, As aften we may fee ; The wind, that thro' its branches blaws, It does na mind a fig. Nor, tho' the rain upo' it fa's, It winna budge a peg. But twa-three Chiels wi' axes, Sae they b - flout an' clever, Can soon this braw green tree cut down, An' throw it in the river-; Syne, whan its on the water pat, How merrily it gaeadcwo ! Ah' ony chic', wi' little (kill, May turn it rr.und and round.

We are (lilt ignorant of the fate qf the agents of the, Republic Who were ?t Naples fore the last hoftiKties ; but we, at* | length know what were the Orders which a court as bliHd in its fury as it was extrava gant in its enterprises gave; concerning them, , immediately after the declaration of war. | They were exposed to the insult? of a fa natic people ; they were loaded with oppro brium ; they were forced to hear the menaces of the mSfl worthless, and what was flill more affecting, the imprecations which these con temptible men threw out against the Re public. Such was their fate during the 24. hours which was granted them to embark. They did «mbark—Their destination was for Ge noa, but they have not yet arrived at Genoa, nor at any other port in Italy. If'they had been delivered up to the (hip of the enemy, we fliould bfive heard of the vefTel which car£ ried them being taken. What is become of them then ) Have we a new injury to avenge —a new crime to punish ? Time, and that time not distant,' will disclose the truth. The garrison of Mantua has received a reinforcement of 3000 Piedmontefe,and that of Brescia, has also received an addition of 2000 troops from the fame country. It is said that the commandant of Ehren breitftein has called forfuccours both from the emperqr and the king of Pruflia, and that both the one and the other have said, that they cannot assist him. The garrison makes daily signals, which are believed to be signals of extreme distress. There was a new piece came out at the Theatre in the city, entitled Les Irlandais Unis. It was crowned with applause. There were some well written scenes and full of ef fect. The minister of the marine, in a speech which he made to the officers and people of the dock yards on the 21 ft, said, that though the French navy had not shared in the glo ries of the French armies, it was about to do so. Its turn is coming. The creative regards of the direftory are turned towards the ocean. Vengeance is'preparing herfelf agairift the cunning English. Naples pro mises us a new arsenal. In a few days Si cilly will become the granary of Malta. In a few days the Mediterranean will be cleared of the auxiliaries of the perfidious Ferdinand. The mir.ifter concluded with a declaration, that he would speedily give to the French navy the means of revenge. J Roof. Gen. Berthier, with Buonaparte's young est brother, is arrived in Corsica. He conies to concert me a Cures with the directory.— Buonaparte still remains master of all Egypt. The 70 millions leviedby the king ofSai dinia, on Ecclesiastical property in Piedmont have been fequeflrated by order of the French Cnmmandant at Turin. The French government having com, plained that the Batavians continued to sup ply the Englifla with provisions, the direftery of that Republic Has proposed to prohibit the exportation of salted and fmoaked provi hons. d&w CONTINUATION OF Via New-York.

LEGHORN, Dec. 17 On the 28th November in the afternoon, after leghorn had furrendcred, Admiral Lord Nelson went on (hore, and was receiv ed with the loudest marks of applause by the people. The number of Neapolitan troops then amounted to 4000 men, and 7000 more were expedled. In the har bour of, Leghorn there was aGenoefe mer chant fleet,con fitting of 70 fail,under convoy of a xebec, and which, according to letters of the 3d instant, it appears the British Ad miral treated as prizes The Genoese Con sul has protested against this aft ; and the Tuscan Government has promised redress. An armament cenfifting of 4000 men has failed from this place, but the destina tion of it is unknown. CONSTANTINOPLE, Dec. 3 An official communication was this day made by the Divan to the foreign Ministers relident at Constantinople, that the English Commodore Hood, who had for some time blocked up the harbour of Alexandria, had sent a number of gun-boats, furnifhed by the Ottomans, against a strong fort erefted by the French near Aboukir, upon which they had mounted a vast number of cannon for the proteflion of the (hipping and the port, when theFranch having been compel led to evacuate their position, the Commo dore put a fuflicient garrison into the fort ; (hortly after which the Governor of Rhodes sent to hinvfeveraj, thousand troops, which obliged the French toretire in various 6ther dirediions, when the Turks took a position that effectually prevented Buonaparte from •communicating with either Alexandria or >Rofetta. Buonaparte had been obliged to fall back towards Alexandria, in want ofpro vifions and ammunition, and harafied by con stant attacks from the Arabs'. CORK, January i 6.
