ifomgit intelligence*
[Receivedat New-York by tbe slip
Fanny, from Glasgow.]
PARIS, March 7.
A conference on the fubjeii of peace is to
be opened by Mr. Davie, Elfworth, and
Murray, the minified plenipotentiary i f the
United States of America, and a coHiinif
fion appointed for that purpose by the firft
consul. This connniffion consists of three
members: Joseph Buonapaite, Flieureu, and
Roederes. Citizen Mourojues is Secretary.
We are informed by letters from Munich,
that a body of 12,000 Bavarian troops are
to set out on the 4th Germinal (Maicii 25)
to join the army of the Archduke.
It is said, that the firft consul wiil set out
very soon to take command of the army of
the Rhine. It is added, that he has given
orders to his guard, to hold tl emit Ives in
readiness to depait towards £§'■ end of this
month.
The Liguiian Gazette •f the 26th Plu
".'ipfe (Februaiy ij) announces that the irt
furieelioti of the inhabitants of Fontanahuo
na afluVnes » leiious
ready been several very f-vere engaaeinents.
between the infurgei.ts, and the French
troops. Ihe latter not being in fufficient
force, a new holy of jcea men, has set out
to join them, in crdc rthat th: fl .mescf the
inftirreftion may be extuiguilljed every
where at the fame time.
People Itio Ip-ak heie ol the formation of
a camp in the environs of Par';. The com
mand (fit will be 'entr udeil to gen. Lafnes,
and the young confrripis will be e.xerctfed in
it under the eyes of the fiilt consul.
VIENNA, February ic).
By Franckfort, an Englilh courier has
arrived with the newi that the Turks have
taken by aflault El Arilch, a frontier tov. - n
ot Egypt, which the French had fortified—
It is reported that the commandant of the
1 urkifh army has concluded a convention
with the French commandant, by which
the French are to have liberty to return to
France.
FRANCKFORT, Feb. 28.
Every thimT announces that the campaign
will be speedily opened. The Austrian ar
my, part of which occupies at prcfent the
Bcrgftrafs amonnts to more than 100,000
men, and is continually augmenting by re
inforcements which arrive from all quarters.
That of the French oh the left bank of the
Rhine incriafes also- daily. It is now cei,
tain that the archduke will retain the chief
cemmand, and that general Kray will act
only unaer his orders. Ihe Austrian army
will be divided into two ; that cf the upper
and that of the lower Rhine.
People in general now begin to believe that
Russia will not abandon the coalition. The
departure of Suwarrpw's army is now pro
ceeding from Bohemia by forced inarcHes,
which is never the cafe with an army that
is merely returning ; the report of Suwar
irow is to command the Anglo-Ruffian army
and the praises which V! r . Pitt continues to
beltow on the Ruffians, all make it be pre
sumed, that these troops wdl re-appear vn
the theatre of war, and that they are defin
ed to frrve on the grand expedition for which
the mofl formidable preparations are making
in England.
BASLE, March ia.
The Paris papers to the 9th ir.fl. ieh
arrived yefbrday, afford a great number of
fubjefts for fpeciilstion and curiosity ; but
contain few important fadts. The campaign
was on the I 6th ult. not yet opened in Italy,
and the Austrian bead - quarter were even at
that tune at 1 nrin. No hofiility had been
committed, except in the Kivierade La
vaunte, where part of the'inhabitan'ts of the
state ot Genoa had (hewn, and maintained
themselves in insurrection again ft the Ligu-
Tian government—General Kienau, v.ho
has received Jonfiuerable reinforcements, has
furni[lied them with arms and officers, and
these insurgents are likely to prove very ufe
ful to him in the attack upon Genoa. Nor
had at-y a<ft of hostility been committed on
the Rhine the 3d. of this month. Moreau
was at that date at Stratfbtjrg, where, to
aniufe the officers of his army, the milked
Ball at Paris was imitated.
Letters from Danauefchitigeii, of the 22d
of Feb. put an end to our regret ixfpecting
the removal of the Archduke Charles. It is
now alTnted that he will retain the com
mand of the army, and that general Kj.ay
to futceed him, only in the event
®f the health of that Prince becoming woife.
It is probable that the latter general will
take the place of general Sztarray in the
of the right wing of the army.
One circumftiir.ee may, however, eventually
have an influence on the future defoliation
of the Archduke. The Emperor Francis,
his brother., was ill, and according to the
ls(t accounts, was in so dangerous a state,
that his life was despaired of. It is unne
ceifary to observe, that in the present situa
tion of affairs much is attached to the result
of his disorder.
There are still variations in tbe reports
relative to the Ruffians. The lass Gen»an
Gazettes state, that tney n:ive received ord -rs
to halt in Moravia and Aultrian Seldia.
Other accounts arc certain, that 30,000 clio
fen men commanded by that able general
Prince Pangratiou, were to embark in the
ports of Russia, and to be in eur country
about tlx beginning of May. bo me ac
counts fend the army of Conde, to Venice,
there to receive fnefh orders ; others state
th«t it is to be disbanded. All that we can
extrad from the. Paris papers on the fubjeft
requires as it is to be seen, to be explained
by more certain communications, and we
can only recommend it to our readers to wait
with patience their arrival. This reeorn-
mendaticii is ftiil ewe necefT.uy with rr
fptft t>® all the vain prefumptiom which the
politicians ot France are forming; refpe&ing
a war between RnfTia and Pniflla, the inter
vention of the army of the latter power in
favour of France, and an approaching lup
ture between Spain and Portugal. The
French Journals denounce the factions of
the impatient and the complaining: they
might with much more propriety denounce
that of the politicians, who are every day
kindling the flames of d Icuhl from One cor
ner of Europe tb the other.
LONDON, March 8.

! March 10.
Advices have been received from India of
a later date than the official uifpacl.es to the
, company, cot-tuning the important news of
the iurrender of the Portuguese fcttlenient
! of Goa, on thecoail of Malabar, to his Ma
| jflty s h rces, under the command of Geiie
i nil Clarke, lhe information conies from
; ''" General hinifelf, in a letter dated from
Gja to a relation in London : and there is
I 110 doubt ol its authenticity. The transfer
j of this fqttlement has been rciasic with the
J con Cent of the Court a| Portugal and we
( understand, it is future to I)* the feat of lhe
Bombay government. The proximity of
Goa to the ne.viy acquired territories of the
Eafl-India Company on the coafl Malabar
| ren ders the p-;!'"lHoii of this place highly
» valuable, both in refpedt to convenience and
general lecprity.
j . It is reported that the Court of Spain has
! appiied to. the P.ritifli government for per
uirfli'in to bring Iroiri South America twen

I which woyld amount to 6.250,000.

ters of grain being about to be imported in

March 11.
In their determination to render if pos
sible, the charadter of Buonaparte popular
in this country, the oppolition writers have
undertaken a talk which, in fpfte of their
usual obstinacy upon these points, we think
! they wiil fiad it very difficult to perferm—
they have represented the report that a small
quantity of Wheat is about to be fhijped
:rom f ranee for this country, as a proof of
the liberality and generosity of th; Chief
Consul. Do they realiy think that th«y
can make such dupes cf the people of Eng
lane, as to impose upon them so foeliih an
opiniou ?
We can underftard the rhotives of these 1
writers in exaggerating (in ccmjundtion with
M. Saladin) th'- refourcei of France, and
in depreciating those of this cou try ; we
can conceive them atone moment represent- !
ing Buonaparte as a mod tyrannical usurp
er, and at another a nioft virtuous acd en- j
lightened chief ccnful ; such changes and
(hifting we are accutlomed to from them j
we can also suppose them laying the gr. uud 1
for trying shortly to persuade the country 1
that he has proved himfelf capable ef the
iela tions ol peace and amity —and for main- :
taining that a negociation for peace ought l
to be entered upon without d. lay—but to I
represent him as a -enemus enemy. after all j
that we know of his conduit in Italy and j
in Egypt, is really too bold and desperate |
an attempt for the sturdiest aJventurer of <
the Jacobin School.
It wight perhaps be as well for these gen- 1
tlemen who are disposed so much to extol j
Buonaparte upon this occaficn, to ascertain j
that this corn had aftually arrived in our
ports, before they reasoned so mnch upon
the dilintercfted mstives wf the chief couful
in fending it. But even if it should ever ar
rive, will not the condatt of the chief con
sul be a little suspicious ? Will it not spprar
a little over gen-ruts ? We know, in ooint
ot fa&, that Spain, the ally of France, has
interceded to France in vain, for a supply
of corn ; we mull then fupp fe one of those
two tilings—either that we hav«- something
to give in return for grain, which France
wants more, and which is the real induce
ment to this exportation, and then there is
an end to the generosity of the chief con
sul ; or that Baonapatie will do a kindness I
to an enemy which he refufes to a friend ;
and if so, the War is the cause of our ob
taining a supply—not the meafta of prevent
ing it.

MR. FILKNO,
IN your paper of the sth of rbi*
month, I have read a p*iagraph, which fays,
that " the rei'uit of the election in New
ork sfcertains the eleiUon of Mr.
to the Prefidervcy."
I do wr,ft firmly believe this t-> be an er
roneous prediilio;.. I trull this country is
not yet lo abandoned of God. Hitherto, it
is true, the liif'oryot the world demonftrater:,
that tie beneficent intentions of the wife
and virtuous, to render mankind nappy, by
mi!J, equitable and equal laws, have been
defeated by the flagitious efforts 6f artful,
unprincipled and ambitions demagogue!.
Ot that description nc country was eve' 1
cursed with a fartion more adtive and left
restrained by principles than this. That
their flattery, deceit and falfehood have made
a dangerous imprtflion cannot be doubted,
hut it is certMin, u>at fucceli will, at the
next ejection, crown the efforts ot the friends
of order, morality and religion, if they ar e
fcitbfj to their c.-.'jfe a"d to thcmfclves }
and of this there can be no doubt.

I "On the ift Match, being between
Gonaives and the Point of St. Mark, with
a merchant brig in tow, bound to Port-au-

me from the Island of Gonaives, having
about 20 oars each, and each carrying from
30 tJ 40 men : their objedt was the Boston,
On discovering them 1 ordered my guns to
be inflantly housed, to decoy them if poffi

some measure. On approsehi«g within (hot
they found their mistake and turned t« run
away from me, The guns were immediately
run out and a fire commenced, which laftcd
two hours, during which time I destroyed
