CfTIZfNS REPRESENTATIVES) " It is incumbent on the French repub lic to obtain triumphs over her enemies by force of her arms, and the pecuniary refour crs which flie fliall be enabled to call forth to provide for her expence. " The measures which you have recently adoped, that the cause of liberty may have tinder its flaidard 200,000 additiona' defen ders, will produce the desired effect ; but t.. t success may natet the wi(hes of the nation, it is indifpenfibly requisite that you iliould dirtd your attention to the state of the finances, and complete the funds necessa ry for the current dilburfement. " Tl,e Executive Diredory has ordered the mimfter of that department to furnifh a state of the revenue received, and an efti tnate, as nearly as possible, of the produd likely to result from the punflual ex ecution of the financial regulations His reports are annexed to the message, and the Diredory refers to the consents of it. From this report it appears that the ' Cit which has i'o much varied since the commencement of the year, from the fuc teiKvf changes oi laws and circum fiances a niounts to 67 millions.

On Saturday the wind coming round to the s. E. they fail ed again. One of the neutrals saw the fleet fleering n. w. afterwards spoke an English (loop of war, which flood immediately for Lord Bridport. Lieutenant Alt was very particular in his exertions to ascertain the true state of the cafe ; one account inform ed him that there were 30 fail of transports with the fleet, but this was not corroborated by any other. A foreign gertlejnan, a pr.f fenger, acquainted him that the general opi nion at Brest was, that the defiination was Ireland—that in'a certain latitude the fleet would separate into three div',lions. They expected one might be intercepted, which would fufficiently'employ Lord Bridport, 10 enahle the others to land the troops, of which every ship was as full as they could flow. An embargo had been laid in all the ports previous to the failing cf the fleet. A very extraordinary report was spread this day in the two councils, and is now the ! fubjeft of every conversation. We are allur ed that the Telegraph has announced the afT.iffination of our Plenipotentiaries, Bon nier and Roberjot, in a village between Ra ftadt and Strafburgh. Jean Debry was the only person who escaped the fury of the affiiffins. The Emperor of Rnffia has declared war againfl jtht? pity,of Hamburgh. r 25th, and, if fuccefs nl, they eypefled to be matters of all Lon - bardy 7 f le republicans nmft now fight not only for viftory, b«t for life ; for it is fiat e that the Ruffians give no .quarter. The i'reech array, however, has received con siderable reinforcements, and has recovere. confidence hr.ee the appointment < f Moreau. We may fxpeft to hear, indeed, tfcat thev cc.; tiru: to fall back till the difoider occ/. fioiied by their defeats is in some degree re paired, Certainly the French will not re lijiguifh- their footing in Italy withoßt a firuggle ; and we (halt fee new Genera! Su warrow will support hi* high reputation wire!) opposed by a commander of acknowledge-! talents. The fame inaftivity ftilJ prevails in Sin bia and Switzerland. Some however, think thatthe Auftrians forthe ill be con tented with their successes in this quarter, without pushing farther. J hey have gained a powerful barrier by the lake of Confta;ice the Brifgau, and their ftrofig positions of the- Voralberg, &c. agaiiHl an irruption of the French iiito Suabia and the Tyrol. The republicans are thus compelk-d to subsist their forces in their own territories, or the exhaus ted country of Switzerland, while the Auf trians remaining in the mean time upon the j defence, are .: ka to fend strong remfort e : ments to their armies in Italy, when- ;■!•? j principal off;..five effort is made. Pei-ftsjy, j however, since the Archduke happily recov ered from his irdifpefition fo.ne eiiteipnfc may be attempted worthy cf the energy of his charß&sr. The French Plenipotentiaries have quitted Raftadt because the Auftriaii Commander in the neighborhood would not consider Has tadt as privileged since the Imperial Enyoy has withdrawn, and refufed to be nbfolutely responsible, for what might happen to the Deputies in the present fiate of affairs. Be fore leaving Raftadt they protefttd ,against this proceeding as contrary to the law of na tions, the previous declarations of the Emp - ror, and the independence of the Germanic body. Thc-y are to remain at Stralburg, to receive,and discuss such oflers as may be made to them. While the arms of the Republic have en countered such disasters in Europe, fuccefiVs appear still to have followed the Standard of Buonaparte. The Vienna court Gazette iftates, that he had penetrated in Syria, and defeated part of the forces of the Pacha, who was employed to condudt the war again ft •him. The accounts from Constantinople of the 3d state, that the Pacha, of Arce is afraid to venture from his coital, and that the Erench are in pofieflion of alrnoft all Syria. The French papers had stated that Buona parte had taken Arce, and these accounts if true give countenance to the report. Bmnaparte has likewise succeeded in tran quilizing F.»ypt, and has greatly strengthen ed his forces by incorporating a number of those whom he had, gained over. This in telligence, however differs much from that lately communicated to government by Com modore Trowbridge. May 10. Mr. Powell, the MelTenger, arrived yes terday with dispatches fiom the Lord Lieu tenant of Ireland : he failed from Dublin on Monday noon. He brought letteK-iWiir' Lord Briaport. His Lordship was oIF Cape Clear with his fleet on Friday la{f, waiting to intercept the French squadron, Ifiould Ireland be the obje£t of its deftinatiou. The cruizers of our fleet, it if said, had captured a IVencto lugger with dispatches iiom the nuniffers of marine to the comman der in chief of their squadron off the coaff of Ireland. Unless this be an artifice to niflead our naval forces, it removes the un certainty upon this point. We have the fa tisfa&ion to know, however, that Lord Bridport has reached the Irifli {fation before the enemy, and that he is prepared to guard its coaff. Proper arrangements have like wise been made to watch the hostile squad ron, ffiould the French have some other ob ject in view. Yesterday reports were circulated that the French had a&ually landed in Ireland, but the story seems to deserve no credit. Ihe messenger had a very disagreeable paflage of nearly 30 hours, and was on Tues day evening landed on the-rocks, about five miles from Holyhead, the packet with the mail of Saturday, which failed the day be fore him, had not arrived this fide of the water when he left the Isle of Anglefea. 1 he letters by it had not reached town lafl night. May 11. Yesterday, information was received at Lloyd s Coffee House, that the French fleet had been seen by a Dane, fleering direftly to wards the coast of Spain, and that he had before parted through a squadron of SIX SPANISH MEN OF WAR, cruising off Ferrol, as if WAITING to be TOIN ED by the FRENCH FLEET. Thi s ; n . telligence was in part confirmed by one of our own frigates, which reconnoitered the Spanish fliips, but the admiralty have no re gular advice of the fad. It was, however, very generally credited, and gak a strong countenance to the supposition, that the combined fleet is bound to the Mediterrane an, in hopes again to possess the dominion of thatfea. The intelligence of the Brest fleet being at sea, and the supposition that it may be deftmed for Ireland, has excited considerable agitation in Dublin. All the department, ot government have been put in motion by the news. Every ineafure of military pre paration has been taken as if the enemy were actually landed, and the vigilance of the ad min,rtration, it is said, is adopting everv precaution to guard againlt the co-operation ot the difaffe&ed by the new arrests. Two legiments 01 Ltighlh Militia which were on their return to this country, have been dif -mbarked, and the troops'are kept on the ■ilert. It is supposed that if the enemy real ty entertain any designs of invasion, the North is the point against which the attack ' s rae ° !c ated, and to this quarter the atten tion of government is dire fled. I t i 5 s aid that symptoms have been discovered, which indicated an. expedition on the part of tin; Heoels that something would be attempted y the enemy in their favor. It is not im probable, however, that many of those fuf prcions are the effect of immediate anxiety ana alarm. ' Marquis (Cornwall is determined to be prepared against every event. .

The plague then raged with uncommonly extenlive mortality ; apd the Pacha of Syria has pledged his'head to the Porte, that he will fend that of Bu onaparte. Miscellaneous Articles. London, May 1. The following Diplomatic Note has been diflnbuted in Germany, by order of the Court 01 Vienna: - '' " The French Direftory contintfs to ad vance the molt exaggerated pretentions, and the Imperial Court will not I'uffer itfelf to be degraded by Republicans, whose objeft is to humble all princes. Twenty-five mil lions of faithful and devoted fubjefls, the belt Srmy in Europe, and immen'fe resources of all ki. ds, are strong inducement's to In ipire the Emperor with a just sense of his dignity and power. With such means the Emperor w.ll not allow himfelf (6 be dila ted to ; and his example will be followed by every monarch whose throne is to be threat ened by innovation and anarchy. The canfe of kings, when united, can no longer be doubtful; but if they remain divided, their reign must soon be at an end, and Europe mull be exposed to the moil dreadful calami ties."
