Ext raft of a letter from a gentleman in
Bourdrf tix, to his friend in this city.
" The Spaniards have beeii completely
routed iii the louth, and the victorious
French are entering Spain. Meuin, Fur
jscs, and Courtray are taken ill the north.
The La Vendee insurgents arc defeated,
ar.d brilliant fuccelfes are announced from
all quarters.
" A proclamation of the Reprpfenta
t.vcs of the People in this Department,
grounded on three different arrets ot the
committee of Public Safety will explain
to yoii in some degree, the footing on
which trade is to be carried on in future. —
I have not time to observe on the -different
points, but the object of it is, to itifure
the certain fupptv of articles of the fir'tne
ceffity to chisrountry, by con filling the ex
prrtat.ott of their own valuable corr.m
ties, to those who enter into engagements
under ftcur.ty to import an equil yalue ot
peceffory articles." '
The 18th anniversary of American ;

amidst the loudell a]>plaufe.
1. The DAY —may the birth of our
liberty Ire the only jubilee in the Ame

6. The patriots of Poland ; May
their oppressors be led in chains by
them, and their future government be
of their own choice.
7. The late victims of British tyran

fleSing, that their fufferings accelerate
tlie regeneration t>f theii country.
8. Economy and simplicity; may
the agents of freemen be known by
their patriotism and virtue, and not by
th* flavor of their wines, the delicacy

1. The Jacobin Clubs of America;
May our citizens be impressed with this
truth, that vigilance is the only preser
vative of Freedom, and that implicit,
confidence in pubh'c servants is a stride
towards flavety.
2. The army and navy of the French
Republic; While they arc contending
Jn the canfe of liberty, may
the laurel of vidlory adorn their brows, a
and'the sowardife of guilt confound their 9
opponents. v
3. Ruin to the combined despots ,* w
May their efforts to llifle the flame of c

From the New-York Daily Gazette, tj
July 4.
This day presents us with the return
of another anniversary of our political
epocha—the American Jlibilee. A day
which every son of freedom ought to
dedicate to harmlefsjoy, mirth, feflivi-
ty and gratitude. It is the mod me-
morable event that can puflibly be cele-
brated by freemen, and a reverence for it (
ought to be indelibly imprelfed upon
every beirig capable of comprehending
the true interefb and dignities which be
long to human nature. From that period
We date the origin of tbegreatelt nation- .
aland individual bleflings, that were ever J
realised by nations or individuals.
Its military effedls have proved no less
•ixtraordinary and wonderful, tharr its
oiiginal design was bold and astonishing
I they have far outrun the hopes and
expectation* of the moll sanguine.—
That sacred principle, which prompted ,
our fathers to attempt so noble an en- j
terprize, could only have emanated from
the foutain of all jultice, —and it did
not return without accomphfhing the
object of its million. We are now in the ■
full enjoyment of every blefltng which
could possibly have been contemplated,
and even more than probably had " cn- j
tered the heart of man to conceive."
Then let us be mindful of them, and '
return the moll grateful thanks to the
beneficent heftower. Let the hand of
indultrv be suspended ; and while the
foul is alive to a jull sense of the digni
fiedprtncipleswhich it commemorates,let '
it blend with gratitude the mod il
- amufementi, and greet with rap
ture the birth dqp of FREEDOM.
