His Grace the Duke of Portland has issued
a warrant against Peter Renier, a native of
Tours, in France, and late of Gorton near
Manchester, Turkey red dyer, for bis remo

fpe&ful and seditious words against this coun

sent to Hull, where he is to be kept in cuflo

Continent.
The report of the failing of a part of the
Brest Fleet, to which some of ourcotempo.
raries gave imp.icit credit, is; without any
foundation. It originated in four men, part
of the crew of a French lugger, from Cher
bourg, which was taken by one of our ships.
During the chace, the captain of the luggar
directed them to fay that they had delerted
from the Brest fleet which had failed. The

Vcafon to fuppole that the combined fleets
which were in readi'efs, would soon put to

Government received yesterday important
information refpe£ling the dispositions of the
different gourts o. Europe, and preparations
for the approaching campaign. Ol the mag
nitude of tbofe preparations an opinion may
be formed from the accounts which arrived
by the Hamburgh Mail, and which state
that,
On the Rhine,
TheAuflrianarmy isjtoconfiftef 100,000 men
Ruffian 70,000
Armed Peasants ... 30,000
In Italy,
The Aullrians and Piedmontefe
troops 150,000
To meet this force, the chief consul of
France is making the moi! strenuous efforts.
MaflTena is in the south, procuring supplies
for the army of Italy. Moreau is at Straf
burgh, organizing the army of the Rhine.
The well known Baron d'Armfeldt will
again have great influence in Sweden. He
is protested by the Ruffian interest.
There never was, perhaps, a battle fought
which had fomany distant fpeflators as that
of Albaro, near Genoa. Most of the inha
bitants of Genoa ran to the ramparts, stee
ples, kc. to witness the scene which was to
dtcide the fate of the Ligurian Republic.
Pafwan Oglou has cut off the communi
cation between Belgrade and Constantino
ple.
Letters from Tunis state, that city is now
fortifying after the European manner, to be
able to undergo a siege. It is feared that
the Dey of Tunis will go to war with Al
giers, on account of a yeung Prince having
been executed, who is said to have been born
at Algiers, and kept up a correspondence
with the Dey of Tunis, which being disco
vered, he was privately strangled.

A letter from Hoecht, dated Jan. 4, fa) 5
" There has been much blood filed to-day,
for th» Auftrians and the French fought
during several hours with inconceivable heat,
and inaHy lives were loft on both fides if we
may judge of the killed from the number of
the wounded who may have been brought in
here. The advantage finally remained with
the Frrnch ; and as the Auftrianj had their
reinforcements on the ether fide of the Mein.
they could not corie to their succour. The
French have neglefletJ, 1 we know not why,
to take advantage of their fticcefit. as they
retired to Hft'rerfheim."

The lafl French papei 4 give us reafou to
believe that very'WVve preparatians are
making in moll of the French ports, particu
larly in Brell and Toulon. Vice-admiral
Biuix has been to Hivre, Hontieur, and
Brest. Reai-admiral Latouche, who was
ordered to proceed with all possible speed to
Brest, received counter-»rders on the 18th
Jan. and was sent to Toulon, where he is to
have a command, and from whence a small
squadron only Waited, according to the Paris
papers, a fair wind to set fail upon some ex
pedition. The ships had ammunition and
provisions an board. A final! number of
ships had been previously difpatchcd from
Toulon, and it is said, have contrived to
throw fuppties into Malta.
The Emperor of Ruflia, as we are inform
ed, among other conditions of reconcilia
tion with the Court of Vienna, ftipulatrd
the dismission of Thuguet; that Francis
should declare for the restoration of Monar
chy in Frarce, and the status quo. We can
not believe these are the conditions, as it is
well know that Thwguet has uniformly op
prfed peace and the French Republic ; as
we fee no proof that Francis will declare for
Monarchy ; and as he cannot be expected
to surrender all his new acquisitions at the
moment when he displays fn much eagernrfs
to extend his dominions.

OVERTURES OF PEACE.
Lord Grenville presented a meflage fr«m
his Majesty to the following purport—
and his" Majerty having 1:0 objeft more at
heart than that of contributing, as loon as
the situation of affairs (hall make it practi
cable, to the re eftablifhmenc of the general
tranquility ai Europe, on a sure and solid
foundation, and of providing effe&aally f<>r
the security and permanent prosperity of his
faithful people, places a firm reJiance on the
continued lupport of his Parliament, and
on the zeal and perfevrrance of his fubjrfts,
in such measures as may bed tend to con
firm the signal advantages whith have been
obtained to the Common Cause in the course
of the lad campaign, and to conduft the
Great Contest in which his Majcily is enga

COALITION AGAINST FRANCE.
In the house of lords on * Tuesday last,
lord Grenville inade use of words to tlie fol
lowing cflTcift : " The treaty of Pavia, of
which we have heard so much, never existed.
The whole (lory is a fable, and a gross im
position on the public. The treaty of Pil
nizt is also wifunderftood. There was no
such thing as a treaty concluded at Pilniti.
nor even a convention. It was merely a
declaration of the two courts of Vienna and
Berlin of their willies in favor of the Princes
of the house of Bourbon." Such was the
afiertion of lord Grenville.
Lord Grrnville is correA as to the place.
There was not a treaty at favia. He is
right both as to the letter and to the place.
It was not a treaty, and it was net at Pa
via that the circomftance happened, which
has given orcafion to so much political no
tice. It was a declaration and not a treaty,
and it was mads at Mantua in the month of
May 1791, infted of Pavia. We are in
debted to M. Bertrand de Moleville, minis
ter of Rate, for the particulars, and heaves
them on the authority of M. de La Cazas,
M. de Calonne, M. de Vaudreul, and the
count Alphonfe de Durfort.
From thishiftory it appears, that in May
1791, the king and queen of Franc* Cent a
confidential friend, the count Alphonfe de
Durfort, t» the Count d'Artois, with a
comroiflion to treat with the emperor Leo
pold, then travelling in Italy with'his lifter
the queen of Naples, for the refcu# and re
eftablifhment of the rovn! family of France.
The conference took place at Mantua on
the 20th of May.
LIVERPOOL, January 13
By Captain Sellers of the Diana, who
arrived here on Tuesday, after being taken
on the coast by a squadron of frigates, we
learn, that Captain Clare of the Thomas
belonging to this port; has taken a second
Spanish prize, a very fine and valuable (hip
and sent her into Princes, having given up
the brig he had Wefort captUTed to the crews
of two veffeto.
Captain Bland of the William, has fa
vored us with the following intelligence:—
" On the Ift of Deer, at day light in the
morning, saw a fleet of (hips, cor Citing of
12 Urge (hips and 16 smaller ones, then
(landing to the tall ward, immediately al
tered our course, and at eight loft fight of
them "
January 16.
On Tuesday arrived here the (hip Galen,
from New York, with 1600 barrels flour;
and we art credibly infntmed that 6000 bar
rels more are daily expc&ed.
Th« following account was received by
Mcffrs J. and A. Lodge, from belfaft yef
teiday. The Amtricau (hip Otitis captain
Tristram Redman, which failed from hence
for New York the 28th November last, was
captured the sth December following, to
the S. W. of Cape Clear, by the French
privateer Boiiginville, of 24 guns and 100
men who plundered a nuirber of packages
belonging to the cargo, put nine French
men on board her, a d then ordered her for
France or Spain, leaving on board Captain
Redman, his mate, and four of his crew.
On Saturday the fourth inft, they overpow
ered the Frenchmen, and brought th: (hip
into Belfaft the 7th ; from whence, after
getting a fnpply of provisions, &c. Captain
Raymond intends proceeding on his voyage
for New York. The French Lieutenant
waw (hot in the fcuiße. The pafiengers
were taken on board the privateer.
HULL, January 13,
On Friday lad the Janus transport, Cap
tain Adams, having on board the Ruffian
Maj.jr General Arbeneff and suite, ar.d
about 300 troops, from the Helder, failed
from hence for Guernsey, under convoy of
the Cobourg cutter.
AUGSBURGH, January 5,
It ■» said that the Circle of Suabia has
offered to furnifh the empire with an army
of 10 800 men ; that Great Britain on its
part Uds entered into a formal engagement
to furnifh subsidies for the formation of
tbis corps, and keep it in pay during the
couiinuai ce of the war. The Deputies of
the Circle of Suabia presented these condi
tions to Mr. Wickham on the 13th Deer.
—He ha 3 ever since obfrrved a profound
silence concerning the article that these
troops fhoulii be maintained by Great Bri
tain.
BRUSSELS, J,in. 11.
A prodigious quantity of Austrian troops,
Wurtzburghers arid
from the contingents of the different princes
and (Utes of the en.pire, and the militia
corps e! -Fraricemny have just filed towards
the Main, in manycolums, to reinforce the
Auftro*Mentz troops, who occupy the bor.
drrs irfthe Nidda. It is now certain that
the array as the empire will muster entirely
on the Lowe Rhine, that <>t Sinvarrow will
arrive there the, beginning of spring, if un
fortTeeii events do not force it to dire<3 its
steps towards other countries. It will there
be joined by the Ruffian forces afletnbled in
Poland, under the command of general
Lafley.
The- speedy arrival of 20,000 Ruffians
from Bshemia it announced at Aufbutg as
certain.—They will take a position along
the Main as far a* AfchafFenbonrg. The
reft of the army of gen. Suwarrow, after
having been new cloathed, will repair aifo
to Fraaconia. According to the fame in
tel'igence, the firft colu nn of the Ruffian
army, afTcmbled in Lithuania and Wolhim'a,
lia»e been put tn motion jjp pass the Vistula.
This army consists »f 60,000 men, 52,000
of which are combatants. Tbe infantry

Gen. Mack is, it it said, to fit out for
Vienna immediately on the affair of his ex

PROCLAMATION
Of the Central Administration of the De-
partment of t!ie Loire Inferieure.
The suspension of arms concluded with
the rebels is nearly at an end. In a few
days either peace will be made, or the war
will be renewed.
Peace or War ! Inhabitants of the Loire
Inferiture, when- you cab chufe between
these two extremes, will you balance f«r an
instant ? No, your choice cannot be doubt
ful, and this di/lrift <hall not- ttrcim with
Wood anew. You are not ferinus. You
will not rally yourselves with banditti of
robbers and aflaffi'S.
Deluded men, if there yet be any who
can thiak of followinga party without hope,
and who are already overcome, open your
eyes. The terrible leflbn of experience is
dill written on every thing that surrounds
you. The fields iavagfd, and which still
lie uncultivated ; these cottages di ftroyed ;
tbefe villages burnt and deserted ; the de
population of this unfortunate country —
these are the disasters of your firlt rebellion,
and you will prepare (or yourselves still
greater ihan these !
You fight, fay you, for your religion and
for your priests. Your priests are restored
to yen ; all fo<ts of public worth ip are free,
and equally protcfled. Why then do vou
resume your arms ?
It is for a king ? A king cannot longer
exist in France ! Royalty is f< rever ban (hed
ant! no man of sense can ever hope for its
return
Is it for the noblefle ? Remember that
p ivilrges alone made the nobles. Call to
mil d all the exa&ions of which you were,
of which you will again be more than ever
the viftims ! Will you be so blind or not to
fee that your triumph even it your triumph
were not impoflible, would be for you the
greatcft misfortunes ? When you can re.
main free, do not fight that you may once
more become (laves.
Every thing that is just, the government
has granted you. In (Jtemifing to forget
•he past, they offer you a generous pardon.
Dread if you do not accept thtrir offer, the
accomplishment of their threats.
A numerous army is charged to avrnge
the republic. In a few days aIL the ruffians
will be annihilated. Hafteri then, while yet
it is time, to separate yourselves from them
Let them find no where an asylum. In de
nying to tkem all prote&ion, mer t for ynur
felves the protection which is < ffered you.
And you, citizens of all the cantons, nu
merous friends of peace, unite yourfelves—
to arms against frightful depredation. May
it be forever extingu : (hed ! Guide the Re
publican columns. Fight in the ranks of
the brave men whom vitt ry has constantly
crowned. Live the Republic !
We announced in one of our late papers,
that the chiefs of the Jnforgents ofthewhole

Vaught the Latin and Greek Languages, in
GOnjnnflion with Chronology, Civil His
tory, Rhetoric, and the Institutes of Moral

A well grounded convi&iori of the expe
diency of the foregoing plan, ltas been OHr
principal inducement te undertake it. When
it is considered that this populous and flou
rifhing Metropolis contains only one P;'biic
Institution on an extensive plan, and that
many of our youth are obliged to resort to
other Stites, to receive even a Grammar-
School Education, the Seminary now pro
posed, will, we trull, be regarded as eminent
ly ufeful.
Actuated by these considerations, many
gentlemen, friends to Science, and to Liter
ary Establishments, have urged, with great
warmth, the present undertaking, and ex
cited the most flattering expectations 0 ( j ts
iuccefs.
Thus encouraged by the countenance and
promii'ed aid of liberal m-n, no less tban by
a firm persuasion that well-regulated Aca
demies have a m.il) important influence
upon manners, habits, and principles ;
it will be our earned endeavor so to con
duft this Seminary of Learning, as to fub~
serve the great IntetefH of Religion ?nd
Morality, to promote Decorum of Behaviour,
Correftnefs of Taste, Liberality of Senti
ment, and every other attribute of an inge
nuous mind, which, in ccm>«tY>on with
good principles, and found literature, con.
ftitute the diftinguiflied ornaments of the
gentleman, atidthe scholar.
The building, engaged for this Academy,
though affording excellent accommodation,
will be relipqtiifiied for a m»re central fitH
ation, if such a change should be found ne-
ceflary
A matter of distinguished abilities will be
procured to conduit the Mathematical De
partment.
Persons desirous to beemployedas tutors
in this Seminary, are requeued to apply,
without delay, to either of the fubfsiribers,
to whom alio Parents wishing to fend their
children, will plesfe to make application.
