burial ground ; a trifle however infiguificant in its nature, yet, more than fufficient to encourage the fanatic rabble tea repetition of such horrid scenes. These are inert who preach a holy war, and a facredattachment to virtue, and who now go about theftreets of Bruxelles singing noctur nal Mafles ! Sp, Though it inay appear strange, it is positively Witted that the King of Prufiia is undermining the Emperor, and secretly fomenting the Coil grefs to continue their exertions. L O N D O N, Sept. 2;. Might not an offer to Congress, for a fupplyof feanien to serve on board our fleet, be a subject 'worthy the consideration of government ? We have often applied to Germany for troops, and why not to America for jailors ? It is possible that Fucli a meai'ure might also de- Itroy thatrefentmentagainft Great-Britain,which many individuals there find it their „interelt to keep alive, and bring about an union between the two people, as sincere and permanent astliefimi larity of the language and religion would natu rally warrant. The King of France has sent the Croix de St. Louis to the young officer of the King's regiment, whose heroic courage, in clinging to the mouth of a cannon which the Swiss regiment were re solved to fire againil the National Guards, under the orders of monsieur Bouille, at the gate of Nancy, we have mentioned. The name of this officer is not De Selli, but Defifhs ; he was born at St. Malo The name ahd csuntry of a true patriot is not a matter of indifference to citizens of thaworld. The late Duke of Cumberland was on the clay of his decease, according to royal etiquette, con ligned to the care of the King's surgeon. The usual ceremony of embalming, &c. hasfince been performed, when the royal corpse was committed to its destined mansion, bedecked in the high style of royalty. Every limb, and every finger, refpe&ively, lies bound in lawn, and covered with white fattin—the body and the face, in like manner, bound round with the fame materials. The neck, wrilts, knees, and feet, are elegantly ornamented with purple bows. The coffin lined with white fattin, richly ornamented, was imme diately closed up for interment. Sept. 28. What we some time ago announced is row on the eve of fulfilling—the retirement of all the Cabinet Ministers of France. The event was only delayed by the utter impoflibility of procu ring fuccefl'ors. At length we find the aspiring faction in the National Aflembly will be able to carry their point of substituting committees to tranfatft the business of each department—a wretched fubterfugeof their own virtuous resolu tion, and which mult be pregnant with ruin. The situation of this coun try, in point of re fpetft with foreign nations, cannot be bet ter ex emplified than by the'iridifference shewn by those flares who have lately concluded Armistices and treaties of peace. Great Britain has neither "been mediator nor arbiter. In the very dispute in Holland, the Stadtholderian party applied to and relied on .the Portland interell. Mr. Pitt may atteniy a general excise by management of a House of Commons, but he is not equal to the conduct o7 war and foreign alliances. Mankind often, by their zeal and solicitude to conceal a fact, make the exiflence of it more ge nerally believed. In the reign of Louis XIV. some people fufpedfced, and not without reason, that a lady in the Abby of Moret was the King's daughter. She was brown, and resembled liim in other j-efpects. The King, when he placed her in the convent, gave her a portion of 20,000 crowns. The opinion she had of her birth, gave .her an air of pride, of which the convent loudly c6nip]ained. Madamede Maintanon (the King's wiftrers) In a journey to Fontainbleau, went to the convent, and willing to inspire the nun with more modest sentiments, endeavoured to banish the idea that nourifhcd her pride. " Madame said the nun, the trouble -which a lady of your rank takes to come on purpose to tell me that 1 am not the King's daughter, fully convinces vie that J am." This anec dote the nuns of Moret remember to this day. By a letter from Warsaw we learn,that the Pol ish Diet have at last pronounced sentence on Prince Poniniki, who has been lo long in confine ment on a charge ofhigh treason. He is declar ed a traitor to his country —llripped of all his ti tles of nobility, employments, and orders of knighthood—ordered to quit Warsaw within 24 hours, and Poland within 4 weeks ; and if he is found in the kingdom at the expiration of that time, he is to be capitally punished. Agreeable to the mild laws now prevalent in France,this sen tence only affeifts the condemned person himfelf, and does not reach to his children. The high stiff cape is totally banished from our fafhionable young men ; and under the aus pices of his Royal Highnef's the Duke of York, a loni loose capeisto hang pendulous over the shoulder. Gtt. i. The motion made in the National As fembly for a new election of Representatives, it is laid, met with considerable applause ; but it forebodes no good to the new form of govern ment, al it will give an opportunity for many of the motterate wen to retire from a scene of anar chy and disorder, and afford to the Ariltocrats an opportunity of seizing the reins of government. On board the Dunmore, from Natiau, New- Providence, lately arrived,_ were Ihipped 522 bales of cotton, weighing iii,H2lbs. the growth of the Bahama, Island* : the largest quantity ever brought in one veflelfrom that port-. Accounts were received by government within thcfe few days, treaty had been proposed by the Empress- of Rulfia, for a general juncti on of interests between the three Northern Pow ers, and, in consequence, difpatfhes have been forwarded ro the Daiiifh Court, with the senti ments of our Cabinet, in cafe such an alhante should be formed. Oft. 5. Th« Prince Royal of Denmark, and his Princels, made their public entry into Copenha gen, on the 14th of lair month. It was impolli ble to exceed the brilliancy and good order of. this pompous ceremony. The town was brilli antly ill urinated the three following evenings. All the foreign Ministers Hotels were particular ly diltinguifhed, on this joyful occasion. The tledtor of Mdyence at the request of the Count de Pappenheiin, hereditary Marshal of the Empire, has fignified to the Landgrave of Hefle Cade), that it will be neceliary that a certain num ber of troops should be kept in his county of Hanau, adjoining to Frankfort, during the elec tion and fubfcquent coronation of the King ot the Romans and Emperor of Germany, to ensure the public tranquility, the fafety of the head of the Empire and of the Electoral College. The Duke of Sudermania returned from Fin land to Stockholm on the 12th September, on board the frigate Camilla; and was publicly re ceived by the Dutchefs, on the Grande Place dn Chateau, amidst the acclamations of an overjoy ed multitude^ I We learn, by a letter from Malaga, that eight Spanilh veflels had bombarded Tangiers, but that the fire from the forts had been fo'brilk and well conducted, that the Spaniards waited for a rein forcement. The Barbarians seem to be greatly improved in the management of their artillery. The Bruflels Gazette contains several long let ters from the Commander in chief of the Patrio tic army, giving intelligence of different battles between his troops and. the Auftrians, in which as he fays the former were always fuccefsful, though the carnage has been great 011 both fides. This intelligence is so far certainly true—that there has been much blood shed, but we are not inclined to give any great degree of credit to what the Brullels Gazette contains, ssit is wholly under the influence of the Congrcfs, and dare's not publilh any other than partial accounts. The Spaniards are forbidden, by a late man date from the Court of Madrid, to fend any of their children into France for education. Tliefe meafurcs lose their end, and do not prevent the circulation of free remarks upon the procedures of the Government at Madrid. A print has been privately circulated there which occasions much alarm, and equal enquiry ; but the offender has hitherto proved fortunate enough to have escap ed detection. It represents a inan seated at the foot of a tree, from one of the branches of which a loaf is hanging. AfSidtion and anger united are visible in his countenance. He looks up at the bread, and from his mouth ifl'uethefe words: Ss no baxtis, vie levunto / cut dcida ati t Carlos quar to. " Unless you drop I mull rife; and then. Charles the Fourth ! beware !" The tedious negotiation between Spain and this country appears to have very lately taken a more serious turn, juid to have put 011 a morehof tile afpetii than evjjr. Within tliefe few days, Stocks have fallen be tween 1 and 2 per cent, and are expecfled to fall still lower. The Natio.nal Afiembly now seem alarmed at the situation of the kingdom, and be
