I hey lay_ th.t the caul'e Is uoble, to onpofe a nation of savages, who wilh to oppress and enslave the mofl virtuous people on earth. and whose on ly crime is daring to alk for justice from the created monster that ever reared its head. Such sentiments have raised the Emperor, voluntarily, the greatest and moll power ful army that Germany ever supported, in consequence of which, and the progress of n.ooo Ruffians, who are already in Uer- Oitny on their way to the Rhine (being;a part of 80,000 which the Emperor of Rus sia fends against the French) the D.reftory have ordered large drafts from their forces in Holland, which leaves an opening for the rebellion, which is hourly expend to be come general throughout the Batavian Re public: the people of Brabant have already revolted, and are in. rcat force ; some aft.- ons have taken place between them and the French. The people of Holland are 111 the nl oft cJreadful itate of distress imaginable: their filhermen, watermen, and all those who gained their bread by the sea, are abfolute jy starving ; the Englilh prevented the neu trals from going into Hollanu, and even a fifhing boat from getting to sea, 3iid their friends the French oppressing them by re quifrticnn, the people are driven to perfed madness."

More French lies detected. The French writer in the Argus of this morning, when they rqnv* to of our glorious eleftion ot yesterday, appear poli tivcly to write under the tortures oi damn ed spirits. As the only confohtion to which fucli wretches can resort, they betake them selves to their usual occupation of mifrepre letatiori and abule. Among other things they insert the following paragraph : " The .turpitude of one tranl'aftion, calls loudly for the most pointed reprobation, if true, that prisoners were taken out of the bridewell, and federal tickets being placed in their hands, they were brought up to the poll tdgyote." Take the fad—One of the prisoners in the Bridewell who it i'eems is sometimes in dulged with the liberty of being out of doors in the day time, had been sent by some of his'comrades to a little (hop near the place where the poll was held, to buy some rum ; here he was met by on? Charles Van Norden, who attended the poll as one ot the French Bullies, and a vote being put into his hand for the democratic ticket, be was lomehow huftied alonji; by this man to the place of voting ; jull as lie was entering the street door, however, he was luckily met by Mr. John M'Call, keeper of the Bridewell,- whose spirited exertions yesterday, entitled him to much applaule, who demanded of Van Norden what lie had to do with one ot his pril'oners, and represented the meannels and indecency of endeavoring to procure a vote froir, a criminal : but was not till after some conliderable altercation, he succeeded in getting the man away without, his voting at all. And now the federalifts are with great propriety charged from the press, with bringing up prisoners from the Bridewell to vote ! There's nothing like plain Matter o? tlile fellows ; it choaks them as suddenly and as effectually as a knot under the left ear. [Com. ad.] NOREOLK, April 27.

Extract of a letter from Liverpool > 23 d " The {hip Molly, of this portj is ar rived at Liverpool, after having beat off three French privateers, at- three differ- ent times." Durnnd Maillane, said, four years ago, in the French Convention, that " already bad tbe corruption of manners, augmented by the abuses of tbe Revolution, inundated the Republic with thieves and mufderei-s" As they, have been progrelfing and encreaf-- ing ever fir.ee in these lucrative profcUions, may we not by thiotiirie, without a figure of speech, rate them a nation of lavages ? Democracy on its last legs.- The populous and important commercial city of New-York, hasat length retrieved it's character, too long loft in the predominance of a faction compofcd of the most depraved and loathibme wretches, that ever polluted a civilized community. The. expuliion of the stock-jobbing bankrupt, Burr, is a memento nwri to the Adonis, and the reft of his in famous family. In Georgia, a fpi-rited and able Federalist (JudgcWalton) hasahfolutely earthed the Democratic Fox, Jackson, and bids fair to (cutter the forces of his contorts. The Virginian phalanx is routed and broken and even Polyphcemus, the bell-wether of the gang, hobbles forwaid to his feat, the " faithful public servant" of j8 constituents. We may now cheerily apply the " nati ur lioribus annis" of the Poet in a new sense. The prosperity of the common cause in other dates, (houlil animate us to exertions worthy of our important stake, and of which we have so laudable an example set before us. To (lamp upon that abominable monster who is afpirihg at a ftatiou among us where he may the more securely prowl around the state, reeking-whom he may devour, the impression of public indignation, abhorrence and con tejnpt, would be a death-wound to the cause and the influence of France in America. Gallatin, the French patriot, from making nails, has commenced a manufaftory of fire arms. Thus verifying the remark of Dr. Johnson, " All sciences a fafting monfienr knows, And bid him go to hell to hell he goes." We "hear that two thousand Ranch of arms are to be furnilhed the Commonwealth from the manufaftory at New Geneva, and that Albert took eare to get his money betimes. It is said the fettlenjent of a well-known and difg raced Paymaster's accounts, would have a very sickly cftedi 'upon two pair of fine horses, a coachee and chariot. Vive la souverairfk'c du fieuple. The hurry duke Albert was in 'to get his money for the fire-arm?, is an indication of suspicions of the (liort duration of the occa sion for them. It were odd, indeed, if a man (hould not know the progress of his own works ; but what are we to think of the Excellence that connived at so groOs a depre dation ton the public ?

Here we have one evidence at lea ft that the mass of the people entertain a higher lenfe of honor than a delegate portion cf them. The following is an accurate state of the Virginia Eleftion for Members of Congress: FEDERAL RETURNS. Citizens Nicholas, Dawfon, Egglefton, Clay, New and Cabell, re-ele£ted. Randolph, vice Venable. There will be, iff the next Congress, on the mott moderate computation, seventy odd Federal members. Citizen David Holmes is re-eletted. A letter from the district reprel'ented in the last congreis by Mr. Machir, dated on the morning of the election, confirms what have already dated of the prospect of Major Haymond's success. The diftrift mif-reprefentedby Holmes, is as federal as any in the ftate->~and there is a profpeft of that mifsrable tool's obtaining leave of absence for the two enfSing years. The diftrift reprel'ented by J. Trigg is the only other from which the returns vet re main to be received. Here there is little liope of any amendment. Samuel j.

The following invocation to .Marcus Brtitus, extracted from a Tenneflee ga zette, is - the • unguarded production of one of. those enthusiastic young fry of treach ery that providence sometimes fends into ex- igence to mar villainy, anddevelope the' hid den machinations of fai\ion. Thisyouthful traitor tells a bold tale, with an undaunted countenance. Hedoes not,iike Harmodious and Ariftogiton conceal his murderous wea pon in wreathes of myrtie, but like the more audacious Grachus brandiihes it in the capi tal. Will any perion I'uppofe after perusing the Democrat"that the ideasand sentiments therein contained, are not familiar and com mon to the whole circle of his associates ; to :he body of M'Laughlins fubferibers ; and indeed to the chief of the inhabitants of that seditious quarter of the union : would he not othervvife tremble to avow them ? incau tious as he is, would he be content to become the solitary viftim of his own solitary, iilly, and treasonable opinion ? Never : No, no, he is confident that every wretch who rnoil tens his lips with the waters of Tennefiee is intoxicated with the fame blood craving ma nia, Assassins lot• m round his daily haunts, ripe for tre--tfr.n, flratagem and crime, were they but affined of impunity. Bui though they pant for the blood of Adams, Well ington and ever}' wife and virtuous mtu in thecommunity ; yet they teach their tongues concealment and endeavor by democratic fi neffe, by fallchood, intrigue, and probation ary outrage to bring 011 the harvest of their wilhes. They play round the flame of l'cdi tion but are very cautious how they linge their wings. On the contrary, this revolu tionary fanatic not being so well read is those matters relative to the fafety of his party as he appears to be in its sentiments and princi ples fiercely hurls defiance into the very teeth of the constituted authorities and the laws of his country : Calls for " daggers" feletts his viftims, and chuckles with lavage plea sure as he fees them, in imagination, " dag ger" beneath his blows. Thus, by trusting to a muse-struck murtherer the fatal secret, all their views and expeditions are complete- ly unmasked. The Northampton insurrec tion was too early for their purpose ; and this canibal song is conlidered by them a» premature ; but in both we fee evidences of the fame spirit ; the tendency of both is the fame, to " difanpul the constitution" and to deluge the country in blood. Whether this unadvised devulgenient of their friend will haflen the execution of their plan is difficult to forefee ; but at all events, the friends of government (hould be prepared for the worst. To have an official head is necessary to the effettual organization of the Democrats of Pennsylvania : give them this and their co operation 'with their brcthreii of Tennessee will immediately follow. They will then without blush or rcmorfe acknowledge their purpose, and perhaps execute it before the ina&ive inhabitants can be brought to believe there are such fiend-like beings in exigence. Men, therefore, who regard their lives and property as worth preserving, ihould labour night and day to secure to themlelves a Go vernor at the next ele&ion, whole vigilence and refcilution will shelter them from the Itorm of anarchy which, if it should Ijiurft upon us, no. regrets can appease, no prayers deprecate.
