From this famp'p of the language used by Mr. Genet to the government, as avowed by himfelf, under circumstances which certainly did not lead him to exaggerate his own im proprieties, it is easy to discern what has been the true complexion of his deportment. It is cafy to perceive, that it was more lifce that of an Eastern Bashaw to his slaves, than like that of the Minister of one, to the govern ment of another sovereign and independent nation. It appears, that instead of endea voring to convince the Psefident of the fup pofed-ertor of his conftru&ion—he has pre ferred the stile of complaint, rcmvijiavce and unhandsome imputation. Want of regard to France, and a Sacrifice of her interests to those of her enemies are petulantly charged; ar.d Mr. Genet, willing to become the inftru&or of the government, undertakes to lelTbn the President about the vievJSy the dejires y and the ngards of the people. ♦ t After all this, he has the modesty to call upon the President to attest 44 that a differ ence in political sentiments has never betray ed him to forgt t what was due to the charac ter and reputation of the President."

NO JACOB-IN. Foreign Intelligence. Wednesday arrived the Jhip sldric.na y ■ Captain Robertfon y from Liverpool. By this vt\fcl Englijh new/papers are received to the t)th of July, which* contain the following Intelligence. FROM THE LONDON GAZETTE. OST END, June 16. INTELLIGENCE has beeo received here, that the Dutch forces quartered at Menin, and a part of those ai Ipres, h?d received orders tb march, on the 11th inft. at midnight, in two columns, with a view to surround a body of French troops in the neighbourhood of Vervick : That the column under the command of the Prince of Waldeck. attacked one of ihc enemies batteries, and were on the point of Carrying it, when the Prince was dangerously wounded in the breast & thigh, 8c they were thrown into eon fufion & retreated. This corps being soon after wards supported by the arrival of the eolumn from Ipres, ur.der the command of Prince Fre derick of Orange, renewed the attack, and took poffelfion of Vervick. The Dutch have loft on this occasion between 50 and 60 men killed, among whom are five officers. The loss on the part of the French is supposed to amount to 400 men killed, and upwards of 10© taken prison ers, besides fevers! pieces of cannon. The Princc of Waldeck died y-efterday of his wounds. The transports from England arrived here this morning without any accident, and are fafely moored in this harbour. This day's Gazette contains an order from his Majcfty in Council to prolong the bounty for seamen and landmen unto the lft August next. His Majfjly's mojlgracious SPEECH to ioth Houses oj Parliament, ON FRIDAY, JUNE 21, 1793. My Lords and Gentlemen, THEI firmnefs, wisdom, and public spirit by which your concluft has been eminently diftin gnifhed on the many Important occasions which have arisen during the present fcflion, demand mv peculiar acknowledgments. Your firm determination to support the cftab lifhed constitution, and the zealous and general concurrence in that fenume.nt, which my fuh jefts have To strongly ahd seasonably manifeft ed, could not fail to check (very attempt to dis turb the internal repole of these kindoms ; and you will, I doubt not, in your several counties encourage the continuance ot the fame vigilant 'attention to that important object. The rapid and signal fuccefles which in an rarly period of the campaign have attended the operations of the combined armies; the resec table and powerful force which you have ena bled me to employ by sea and land, and the mcafures which I have concerted with other poweis for the effectual profecutiovi of the war, afford the best profpeft of a happy issue to the important contest in which we *re engaged ; It% is only by peifcvcrance in vigorous exertions, apd by endeavoring to improve the advantages already acquired, that we can hope to obtain the great end to which my views are uniformly dire&ed, the restoration of peace on such terms as may be confident with our permanent securi ty, and with the general tranquillity of Europe. Gentlemen of the lloufe of Commons, I rcrurn you my particular thanks for the chcarfulncfs and dispatch with which you have granted ithc neceflary supplies, & I am happy to refle# that you have enabled me liberally to pro vide for the exigencies of the public fervire in a manner so little burthenfoine lo my people. My Ltrji arJ 6f*t/cmt» t The Ml which you have formed for the government of (he territories tu India, jud for the regulation of our commerce w::h.that part of the will, I doubt not, (retire and augment fhetmporrant benefits which we already derived irom those valuable potfefiions. It has been impoilible for me 10 fee without concern the cmbanaliment which has lately ari sen in the (late of commercial credit, but the steps which you have taken to prevent the pro gress of that evil, appear already to have been produ&ive of veiy faluiary consequences ; and while they have afforded a drifting instance oi yrxkr attention to the interefls of my pdoplt, their effrft has furnifhed additional THMQfc believe that the distress which has been felt pro ceeded from a concurrence of temptoraffy cautes, and not from any diminution ot the real wealth, or any failure in the permanent refoijrces of the country. I have much fatisfa&ion in refle&ing on the effr&ual pint ftion which I have enabled to afford to the trade of my fubjftts finc'e the breaking out of the war—l am at the fau• e rime persuaded that if our commercial interests had unavoidably been atfc£ted to a more considera ble extent, it would not have be.cn forgotten fhat we are contending for our future security, and for tfe permanent preservation of advan tages the mod striking and the mr.ft valuable which any nation has ever, by the blefling of Providence, been permitted to enjoy. Thrn the Lord Chancellor, by his Majetty's command, said : My. Lorii and Gcntttmen, I) is hit Majesty's royal Will and pleafu're, that thit parliament be prorogued to.Tucfday the thirteenth day of August next, to be then here holden ; and this parlliment is according ly prorogued to Tuesday the thirtceath day of August next. h T'URI N,'June, 5. < Intelligence has been received here, that on the 12th inft. a bo<iy of about 10,000 French troops attempted to difl>dge the advanced pdfts ot the Sardinian army at Raus and Authion in the county of Nice, commanded by the Gene rals Baron Colli and Baron Deller,*, and, after an engagement which lafled near 8 hours,-with out interruption, were repulsed on all fides,and driven into the vallies, with the loss of abont 800 men killed, and 1500 wounded, besides a number taken prisoners. The loss on the part of the Sardinians amounts to between 40 arid 50 killed,and about 200 wounded. O S T E N D, June 28* The Auftrians have been unfortunately beaten at Arlon ; they loft abont 1500 men, their bag gage and magazines. Letters from Paris men tion, thai the rebel army had been defeated by Gen. Biron, with the lofsof 7.000 men, all their k a ££ a g e and artillery. Ido not vouch for the truth of this report, but I know lhat it comes from Paris. If Valenciennes be Recently de fended, it may hold out a month longeT. As yet the besiegers have not opened any battery * nearer than 300 yards ; but they talk of begins ning another parallel—a third.—Sorr)«~ people report, that the King of Brutfia's army on ihe Rhine is so reduced, that were it not for .the Auftrians who are with them, they would be obliged to abandon the neighbourhood of Mayence. PARIS, June iq, SITTINGS of the JACOBINS. Thursday, June ao. The deputies from the department of Jura accused the administrators who, on the 4th of May, resolved to fend deputies to Bourges. " Our administration," said the orator, " ha» raised some cavalry, confiding of the late No bles, and all fufpe<3ed persons whom the com missioners had ordered to be arretted. It has al so raised a battalion of 800. men, as badly or ganized, and in which the rich have been pfe ferred to the Sans Culottes. It ordered the fal lowing infeription to be put on the colours, " War to Anarchists !" So that our department is completely in a state of counter-revolution, and fupporfed by an armed force. This is not all: the department declared that it acknow ledged no longer the convention. The doin-i monalty of Dole could not forbear its cries of indignation, and the department has resolved to fend an armed force to deprive Dole of its can non and provisions. Dole will refill, and thus a civil war will break out." Friday, June 21. The society decreed, that there fliould be sent, during the fitting, commissioners to the committee of Public Safety, to invite it to drive away all ex-nobles from civil and military pla ces, and not to employ them in future. . Roufillon required, that they should be ex ported to French Guyenne, and also all the Priests. MUNICIPAL ITT of PARIS. Wednesday, June 19. A citizen of Havre read a paper, from which it appeared that arilocracy prevails in that city " Twenty thousand signatures (faidhe) if necef far-y, will prove what I have asserted." Th« council nam<d commiflioners to examine before the committee of Public Safety, the accu sation which had. been ra.ide against the jritni niftrators of the department de la Seine-Infe rieure. Chaumet read a letter from de h Chevar diere, commiflioner at la Vandie, dated from Tours the 15th instant. He announced, that the rebfls had evacuated Chinon the fame day on which they had taken it, and that they marched against Angers ; but by the arrival of the volunteers, and the courage of the army, it was hoped that they might soon be conquered. He added, that the rebels spared nobody ; nei ther patriots nor aristocrats; to ffe rich, is with them to be a Jacobin, He demanded arms, 522 cannon, and camp equipage. (Referred to tke commilfion of arms ) • The Procurer of the commonalty declared, that twentyfeven feSions had adhered to the petition of the fedtion of Pikes, which demand ed a report of the decree for eftabliihing a revo lutionary army in Paris. In consequence of the sense «f thi majority, the council named com miilioners to carry this address to the conven tion. > Chaumet represented to the council the dan gers which surrounded the republic, and*which threatened the city of Paris in particular : he named giany departments .that had declared themfelvestgainft the revolution of the 31ft of May. Takinga review of thd rebel army, he was alarmed at the piogrefs it might make, if the most vigorous measures were not taken. He proposed the formation of a camp, which might be a nursery of warriors, a kind of a se cond line army, to piote& Paris again it the hos tilities of the enemies of their country. He wilhc'd to submit this idea, by an address, to the Convention. Thursday, "June 20.

LONDON, June 18. On Saturday morning; General Dumourier arrived in town from Flanders,and foou after, had a long conference with Mr. Hose, at his houfc in Palace-yard, Westminster. The ex-general Dumourier failed in the parkec from Dover, which carried over the foreign mail to Oftend. During his fliort stay here, he had notice of several challenges; one gentleman painted the guillotine 011 a let ter, and left it at Dumourier'slodgings, with his addrels enclosed, and others had declared they would tyit ih his face wherever they met hifn. M.

Shi brings the pleasing intelligence of his ■majesty's Ihip Egmont having re-taken a Spa niih gaileon, one of the richest ever taken ; and cap.tured the French frigate, who took the galleon several days before. The French f igate is one of the new conftruftion, mounts 42 guns, quite new, and ihe galleon was all the prize she had taken. Valenciennes—B,v the last accounts received in London, the town was totally destroyed by the combined force's, about a 153 cannon, having been inceffantlyfiring upon it, for two days and nights. The frequent effufion of innocent blood begins to operate powerfully upon the feel ings of the lower descriptions of Parisians; and Ihould the Revolutionary Tribunal soon exhibit Juch. another scene ol cruelty as was presented to the public a fsw.days since, when twelve innocent persons loft theirheadsby the murderous guillotine, there is every reason to believe that the sanguinary reign of Marat will meet with a speedy end. Many of these viainis excited the deepest interest from their youth, and the women particularly so, by their beauty and heroism ! They made appli. catii'i to the Convention for a respite ; but Thuriot, that worthy brother of Marat in iniquity over-ruled their request. Thev all fuffered death about 12 o'clock 011 the 18th.

A mod unlucky event has happened to the Austrian family, as may be learned from the following article. Treves, Jane 16. Yesterday morning, about 4 o'clock, a de tachment of 403 Frenchmen marched againll the Austrian port at Faha, Sintz, and Keip. ling. In this latter place, at the diffance of half a league from Faha. they took his impe. riil highness the Arch Duke Joseph of Au ftriat with a picquet confiding of five di a g-oons, pnfoners of war. The article adds v that every effort was made to recover the Arch Duke, but in vain. The French knew the value of their chief 1 pri Toner, and hastened with him to the fori of Saar Louis. The Spaniards have in the Mediterranean 37 Ihips of the line, carrying 2959 camion, two corvettes, and 9 brigs. Pcihion, the once great and mighty Crom well of Paris, whole repeated insults to the unhappy Louis, and ivhore charming conni vance at the attrocities of the totli of Ail guft and 2d of September will never be for gotten, is now a wretched outcast—at one time eying for his life to a mob, and at ano ther escaping through a back window into a friendly ditch.—ls not this something like the vengeance of heaven ? Count de By land, commandant of the for trefs of Breda, when it was attacked by the Friench, and who, by the hasty far render of it, not a little contributed to their fnbfequent success, ha*? been sentenced by the court mar tial to be conveyed to the parade of Breda, where, in the front of all the garrffon, be is to be stripped of all hi?? military decorations, his sword is *o be carried to the fortrefs of* Loeveftein, a state prison, where he is to be confined for the remainder of his life.
