I In addition to our late intelligence from Europe, published in our last, we have the . proclamation of the diredttory to the deputa tion of the empire, and of gen. Jourdan, commander in chief of the army of Mentz, to his army and soldiers, in which are clil covered the fame tiipne of crooked policy, thfe fame hibfic windings'of low intrigue, and bold Andes of insatiate ambition, Covered with the fame dob-web garb of Gallic faith, and tinsel varnilh of fair promises, which have uivariably been the concomitants of-the diplomatic Agency of this degenerate nation. The rapacious republic of France wilhes to fix her devouring fangs on Germany. Some pretext mult be found. It is Sufficient thnt the latter, roused from the lethargic (lumber into which (he has been lulled-hy rhe syren long of her foes, knd forewarned by the re cent and terrible examples of Switzerland and Sicily, is preparing for her own defence. Ruffian troops-are found on her territory j war is declared, and France finds it necelTa ry t« invade Germany from the " principles ps self defenceThe'inhabitants of Ger many are invited to supply the French army with necessaries, on a directorial promise-os reimbursement, to vema'tn calm in the midftof the ftoirm," and threatened withex amplaj-y puniffiment hi'-cafe 6f oppofiti-on.' The fame measures wilt-prt>babfy be purfiied ' with Spain— Pxiould'ihe refufe the'armies of the republic a paflage thfoagh her dominions.

Mr. Lvon had come to Congress only a very (liort time before the Session ended, baring in the fall of last year been imprisoned in the goal "of Vergen nes. in the State of Vermont, on a judgment of the Circuit CouH there, for sedition. But Mr. Lymn hai the modesty to demand pay for aitendence in Cnigrefs during the whcle of the Se'flioh.' TheSerjeant at arms thought this claim inadrtiiffibie, and would hot-pass his account wfrhout the approba tion! of the Speaker. \ir. L»on had so much grace left him as to be ashamed to ap ply to the Speaker hirrfelf ; but he had so little grace as to a(k another to dp that which he knew he ought, not to do himftlf. At his request, the Serjeant at arms mentioned the matter to the Speaker;— The Speaker (like the Serjeant at Arms and every man) was of opinion, that Mr. Lyon's claim was inadmiflible. Mr. Lyon then claimed mileage from the goal of Vergen nes to Phi ladelphia. The reader is requeued to ob serve, that the goal of Vergennes is farther from Philadelphia than Mr. Lyon's house is. The Serjeant at Arms was again sent tothe Speaker.—The Speaker, with all that promptness for which Mr. Dayton is remar kable, replied, " Perhaps the claim is right —Go back and get from Mr. Lyon a cer. tificate, that the goal of Vergennes is his usual place of abode, and that he means to return thither ; and on that certificate I will authorize the settlement of his account for mileage as he has presented it." It is needless to add, that Mr. Lyon did not choofj: to give such certificate, and Mr. Lyon got only the wages he deserved:—But it may be proper to obfsrve, that two other Bills for sedition were cut and dry for Mr. Lyon, on his return to Vermont ; and that he chose to retire for fhelrer with his friend MAfou of Virginia ; and has lately announ ced his intention of going to Kentucky.

May 1 S. communication; ' AS mod of the United Irish litely arrived in this country, have taken, pains to con vey the idea, thatmoft of the Protestants in the north of Ireland had been,engaged in the late rebellion; and particularly, that the Profbyteriau Clergy in general, had ai\ed in opposition to.government.

With refpeft to those of our communion who,' unhappily, have been led into open outrage and rebellion, we entreat them to re- Heiil dilpaflionately on their condwft, and so place before their view the melancholy conse quences by which it has been followed. On making an appeal to their own hearts they must fee and feel that it cannot be juftified. | so many of their fellow creatures deprived »f lite, and hurried into eternity, numbers driv: en trom their habitations, without knowing where to seek f or refuge, so much property tteftro>vd, and the commerce of the country, )[' lrmn y refpefts, injured—these are s vilt ' '° n,uch magnitude, as we arc confident, mim make npon their minds a very deep im- j prefiion.

Were not the Shack les broken which had confined our trade ? Was not private property secure, and the land becoming every day more prosperous ?

The accomplishment of this most <2efira ble obje& will be greatly f rwarded by your acting under the influence of a Ready | regard to the laws and to the conilitut'ior., | by your avowed and manly opposition to e j very species of infurreaion, and bv those ex ertions to reftorr the public tranquility, which, at this critical and important peri od, will be the best proof of your regard to your own interest, of your loyalty to your King and your love to your country.

In your endeavors to re establish order and the public peace, it is neceflary for us to observe how much it is your duty, on every occasion, to place in the ftrongelt point of view, to every one with whom you can have any influence, the danger and perni cious consequences of a foreign connexion Here, in refpeft to France, your argument is simple it is plain and not to be refilled ; it is the fa&, that this nation has exercised a despotic power over ev<:ry country which has had the misfortune to apply to it for as sistance ;or to be conquered by its arms- As a strong additional motive to excite vou to oppose any attempt, against our couutry flf this rcfllefs and ambitious people, we be seech you to consider how unf.iendly their declarations, and coudu& have been to those principles of Religion, which are the sup port of our present comfort, and the sure foundation of our eternal hapinefs Permit ua likewif: to intreat that you may guard again ft a party spirit, and that you cultivate good will towards your fellow fubjefts of every religiou. description.
