On change yeftrrday a report was in cir*
culatian, which dated that Mr. Vans Mur~
ray, oue of our inioifttrA appointed to treat
with the French Republic, had arrived at
Pari* from the Hague ; that he wa» receiv
ed with every demonstration of joy ; and
had been afftired by the Dire<fti>ry, that th«
mod happy iflue might be expeded from
the negociation to be opeied as soon as the
other minifteri arrived from the United
State*, «ho were hourly cxpe&cd.
We took confiderabhr pains to tra«e this
report to its source { and saw" the gentleu an
who had it from his friend, who received it
from a gentleman lately arrived tt Newport
(R. I ) from Rothefort.
As much as the circuitous route of thi»
report may argue against its authenticity,
we can Hats as corr botatire of the report
upon the authority of the last Newport pa'
per, the arrirahhere of a veflel from Roche,
fort.
We never recoiled 10 have witnc&ed a
greater alarm, than that ef last evening :
when, at the fame instant, the cry of, fire !
fire ! was proclaimed in the northern and
southern extremetiesof the city. The Bri
lifh armed (hip Admiral Duncan, lying at
Sultus's wharf, took fire, and edntinued to
burn for an hour before (he was <ut loose
and hauled into the (tram ; wher» notwith
(landing evtry effort, (he was confuting at
one o'clock this morning, when thia paper
went to press. The AdmiraL Duncan, #f<
are informs 1, had a cargo eu board to the
value of 70,000 dollari and waj to have fail
ed this morning for Liverpool.
The fire in the northern part of the city,
was a house near the new banks, which was
c nfumed.
We Hop the press at 2 o'clock this morn
ing, to date that the (hip Ol vc, which
drifted from the wharf foul of the Admiral
Dnncan, to appearance, is on fire—both
(hips aground on the Long Island fide near
the mills.
The feeue, at this moment, is terrible!
