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." On the Jiftof this month there was a flight of Snow at Philadelphia. Here it fiuwed all the forenoon of the 24th, and more snow fell than has in the fame space of time during the winter.

Who that venerates the holy religion of his fa thers? Who that wishes to continue under the fafeguard of wife arid wholesome laws? Who that deprecates the horrors of that de moralizing, brutal, and execrable system of French Liberty, which has been propagated with such demonic zeal throughout the the world? Who that is indujlrous, virtuous and happy, that docs not feel his heart eased of the heavy burthen that had long oppres sed it? Yes, our country is not loft ! France! your detestable schemes—your hopes of ra pine and bl'od are all frujirmed. Levellers', you must still be in obfeurity, and feel the gripe of that poverty which your idfe'iefe and your vices have brought upon you— Enemies of the government! you are wretch edly mistaken—you must bite the lip in impotent rage—your reign s no more. Friend Edward ! you fee the fate that awaits you. Take a friends advice, and give out as early as poflible your intentions of declining to Hand the test of another Ele&icn Friends of the Government, of a fettled and permanent state of things, we congraulate you on the favourable iflue of this decisive fteuggle.—-Merchants of New York you have done your duty.—Citizens of every class and profeffion, who have contributed your aid in placing in the feats of legislation men of integrity and worth, you may now ■wear the honorable badge of Federalism, your aftivity deserves much pride, and gu aantees of the future fafety of aged ftres. This is a proud day of all Americans. L 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 ? Mr Fox, Mr Wignell Mr Downie. Mr Marfhail. Mr B«rnard. Mr Hardlnge. Nearly two-thirds rf the 44 Lyonnois lave been expelled from Congress. 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. Cabell was opposed by a young gentleman of fine talents and the founded principles, unfortunately wearing the dis graced name cf John Nicholas. j&t One Mitchell appears on the despised de mocratic ticket, at N#w-York, left by a thousand votes, in arrear.

Davis, firft jnate of the (hip Gen. Washington, of this port, to Ijis owner, dated on board the s Lyi.m sloop of war, April 21, J 799. Sir, ; I HAVE only time to inform you, that we were taken by the Lynx and Pbea fant, on the 14th lull, off the Hole-in-the- Wall, and are bound to Bermuda. We had leparated from the Star some tihie before, in a gale of wind ; but Ihe was in fight when we were taken, and I fuppoi'e is in New- Providence, as thertf was a brig of. 18 guns in fight, belonging there, ar.d they fend in all vessels they meet. [lt appears by the following article, that the (hip Star, mentioned in the above letter, has e leaped :] Capt. W. Odlin, of the brig Rambler, from Hunduras, on the ibch uit. spoke the fliip Star, George, of and iVotn this port, bound to New-Orleans, then in Int. 24, 50, near Martin's Reef, Cape Sable bearing N.
