The Grand Inqurft of the city and county cf Philadelphia presented the following Memorial and Remonstrance to the Chief Juft.ce, av.d Judges of die Court of Oyer and Terminer, in support of their public rights and«private characters, attacked by the doctrine and reflections of the. Court. It being refund a public reading, they are coispriled to have recourse to the press, for a vindication of their conduct. Al fame time, they would with to make known, that, influenced ky the obliga tions of civil and of facial duty, theycan not butexpreis,' as they very sensibly feel, the nir.l pointed abhorrence and detefta. ticu of all such defamatory publications, as h*-W a tendency wantonly to expose public rhafaftcrs to censure and contempt, —or pr.v.ite ones to abuse and obloquy ; —thereby fomenting difeord and division in the State, to the great prejudice of the •mere ft cf the community, as "well as the peace, and happiness of individuals. To tic Chief Justice and Judges of tbe\ Court cf Qjtr and Tcrmir.er. Yh. Memorial jni Rrmon-rtncs of tfc? Grand Ju- J T 7 tcr tte City 3rd Cuur.cy of Philadelphia, THAT the grand jury, having, in dif ehart-e r)" their duty, and on their folenin ocths andeffirmations, deliberated and decid td or. two seVeral indi&irents presented against Eleazer Oswald (e;:ch for a libel) and, under the fanftion of such high obligations, / having delivered their just return into court, (on Friday the 3d instant) cannot but re. member, with peculiar fallibility and con cern, that they incurred the severe difplea fire of the bench, and received very re proachful language for their conduft. After the or:oft scrutinizing felf-examina tion, they feci themfelvei aflured of the pu rity and re&itud? cf their intentiohk ; and do therefore, ir. defence of their violated rights, and in their own juftificatiofi, request the pernuflion ot the court, to clear them selves from the charges ailedged against them --and to elHbl.Hi the propriety and upright ness of their conduft. That if anv thing (ho*ld fall from them, which, by a forced conflruftion, might ap pear difrefpeftfu! to the court, thev jfetter tl.emfclves, that the unflraken seal' for the liberties of their country, their fidelity to their trust, and the relative situation they Hand in with their'fellow citizens of the , ftnte, which are the motives that alone ac tuate them wjll fully plead their apolog-y. That they have beeu accused of having •xamined witnefles, on the above-mentioned indigents, not previously approved of by the court : your memorialists have been taught to believe, that an examination of * - all witnefies (laboring under no legal difqual ifjeation) i» 'founded on law, reason and j praftice ; is a right inherent in a grand jury; j and, in freegovernments. ftiould be fecurcd by every reftrsint of the most rigorous con ftruftion ; consequently, that the attempt to deprive grand jurors of invaluable privilege, is an obstruction to the citizen's claim of right in the prefeat instance ; and, if acc'jiefcen in, might be drawn out into precedent, so as to prove a most certain de feat of them in future, to the great detri ment and degradation of the members of this free commonwealth. They conceive tint the doftrine of the court, of having a right to control the evi dence they fliould examine, on indictments brought before them, is not only departing from the solid principles of law and liberty, and truflmg to the discretionary power of judges ; but would, if introduced into prac tice, be subversive of the oaths of the jurors, who are bound thereby diligently to enquire into and present, the xpigh truth ; wixh, doubt'lefs, cannot be ascertained and elfob ljfhcd, with fatisfaftory precision, but frcm the rcfult of'teftimony on both fides. It would likewise give to Judges the opportu nity of fupprefiing, from improper motives, such evidence, as might tend to exculpate the party accused. It is deftruftive, too, of the humane intention of the law. which be nevolently designs that so person (hall be ■convifted, but on the solemn decision of twenty-four perfor.s, delivered into court. Your memorisluls are of opinion, that the fuggeftioji of the chief juP.ice, "-that the grand irxjueft <si" the city and county were biafted, and led away by the spirit of party views, and that they had been tampered with by tie authors of the obnoxious publi cations," involved in it a criminal charge, of a heinous and effenfive nature, that expo sed their moral characters to doubt and dif cufiton, was highly insulting to their feel ings, and was an unmerited attack upon their integrity of concuft. That it is possible imputations, falling from such high authority, may make impres sions, that will remain long, and affittdeep- 1 Iy, and that until they tire cleared from luch | weighty they are fearful cf ke- j ing virtually incapacitated from ferviHg t4rdr ' country in the fame cha rafters. Candor and irnparti;rlity/are tr.e eIT-ntial qualifications of a grand juryman, under a deprivation of _ which, the censure of the chief juflice tend ed to l.iy them, when he accused them of j delivering into court, a falfe return. Mat ter of such fericus conf?qu?nce, falling from the bench, rtie«?!d ue fuppoi ted on the broad bail? of truth.

That they are fully persuaded th- rcqr.ifi , tion made to the grand jury, individually :< give their reasons to the court, which in duced them to return the bills they prefentct , " not true," was an encroachment upon tb< _ sacred rights of juries, which form thebul . wark of our civil liberties. _ open defiance and violation of their oaths inc ( affirmations, from the obligations ol which . they know no authority on earth that Juis i ( dispensing power to relc'fe them. That they solemnly pledge themfrlves, th« ! accuf.tion of the chief justice, ftigmatiaing the jury with partiality, in refufipg to ex , amine evidence, is ill founded, thejuryhav. j ing deliberately and difpaffionatelv fcarched ifitothe merits of the cafe, and having form ed a decision thereupon, before they bad a knowledge of any further teflimony intend ed to be offered by the court. In order, therefore, that the conduft of the court may not, by our accjuiefcence un der it, pass into precedent, and be quoted in future cases as an authority, your meriio rialifts conceive it an indispensable duty they owe to themselves, to their country, and to poftenty, to leave on record a tefiimonial against it. To themselves, to evidence that they mefrit not, the inferences of perjury, which might be drawn from the language of the chief justice ; to theircountry, that courts finding- that grand juries will (upport their own rights, and, with thorn, the liberties of the people, may not attempt to encroach on them ; and to poflerity, that no advan tage may refu't tc their prejudice, by our silence. That these benefits, arising from their salutary interposition, may net be loft, they pray that this memorial maybe filed amongst the proceedings of the court Signed, Zebulon Potts, Foreman.

According to thi-s account, Colossi and. Brigadier Strauch, after very fatiguing mar ches, reached Ghiavi nna with his brigade on the 9th inft. at which placs Col. Le Loup, of the van-guard of General ViikaiAivich, had arrived on the preceding day. From the 7th the enemy had commenced their retreat from Chiavenna by the valley of Giacomo, leaving at the firft place 32 pieces of cannon, of which we have taken peffef iion. Colonel Strauch, being reinforced with three battalions of light troops, and the re mainder of the third battalion of Michael Wallis, commanded by Colonel Carneville, piirlued the enemy to the heights ; ai.d Colo nel Prince Viclor de Rohan went with his fcrce to Bcllinzonc, to dispute the passage of the Bernadin. The Brigade of Colonel Strauch hr.d many difficult:-: so Kirmount at Morpegon, in the vally of C imonica. He was obliged to wait two days at Piacta, in order to dig a road through the snow near Cafa St. Marco, as it wis iiiipoffible for the soldiers to march, the fn#w oeing 15 feet deep, and not hard enough tc bear. By this means, the commu nication is re-eftabHflied with the principal corps nf Lieut. General Bellegarde, Sufa I Plantz, Jiialagio, and Caffaifch. Denjonflntions were made for the purpose of the enemy en the hills of Julie and Albula, in order to lacilitate the opera tions of Lieutenant General Hotze, whom General Bellegarde was prepared to i'upport on the fide of Javos and the Hill cf Abola. Colonel Da Marieiile, of the regiment of Clairfayt, bad brought from Abula two pieces of cannon belonging to the enemy. At Malagn, and at Several other places on the road to Cb'uvcnna, were found a great quantity of ammunition, mtrfkers, andwao. ;ons. The enemy had destroyed a part of hem in retreating.

The fortified post cf St. Lucienfteig complately dof-s and defends tbe dirrft pas. sage from Feldkixch into the Grifon coun try ; its natural and artificial strength is such as to render a Jireft atf&' k upon it in front extremely difficult and imprudent, and its flanks are so well supported as to render it impossible to turn it without marching over inch mountains as might almost have been deemed impracticable fur troops. Ihe liifl or right hand column marched [from Feldkirch on the great road ftraigl.t to the Steig. The destination of this column was to form in front of the post. to make Inch demonftraticns as to threaten attack, and endeavor to draw off the Enemy's at tention frcm his right flank, and to be in rea dmefs to pursue the Enemy with the Caval- i ry and flying artillery as loon as the other j columns Ihould have obliged him to aban don tl.e Steig.
