Intel ligcncei PARIS, April Cn the 20th, the national agent read, "in the Canncii General ofthe Commune, an order of 'die Committee of Public Safety for removing the whole Revolu tiofiary Committee of the Section Des Arties-, and appointing a new Corr.rhit tee in its rocm. With the order was sent a lilt ot names to form the new Committee, and the persons thus nomi nated were immediately (worn into of fice Such is the power exercised by the Committee of Public Safety. The national agent then said, " The Ccmmittee of Public Safety, wishing j that a free people should render to the Supreme Being homage worthy of bim I —homage free from the prejudices and the superstition of nations enilaved, have announced that they were going to es tablish Deoadary Holidays in honor of the Eternal. Fanatieifm, which feeni ed beaten to the ground, to day raised its frightful headi Evil disposed per sons were running about the streets by five in the morning. To the patriots they said, " Shut up your {hops, this is a holiday in honor of the Divinity." To the Aristocrats they said, " This is Ealler Sunday, (hut up your (hops."— Before seven; scarce a tingle (hop was open—but the police took such mea sures as foori opened them all, and will punish the authors of this retrograde movement in public opinion. The evil minded mull fee with regret the impo sing tranquility of the people, who, re covered from their errors, full of refpeft for the Eternal, expect from the Con vention a religion, simple as nature, pure Ss truth, and eternal as reason. We must have a religion as ufeful to liberty as to the happiness of man.—Turning to thfc people he said—" Wait with refpett for the report of the Commit tees on Decadary Holidays : fuffer not Fanatieifm to raise its head ; adore one God ; be jtift, beneficent, love your Country', and you will be worthy of tlie Supreme Being. Denounce the evil difpofed who would revive superstition ; enlighten the f?ell-meaning, bring them back to reason, to truth, and we (hall soon offer to the Divinity a worship as pure as Liberty." All this was receiv ed with loud applause. In the Jacobin Club, on the fame day, a letter from the army of the East ern Pyrenees was read, stating, that the Spaniards had evacuated Boulon, and the camp of Ceret ; that they were re tii ing to Collionre and Bellegarde, from which they would soon be driven ; and that General Dagobei t at Puycerda was preparing to cut off their retreat. Santerre wrote from Nantes to jufti fy himfelf against certain charges, and to prove that he had been the declared enemy of every faction. His letter was sent to the Committee of Public Safety. On the motion of Duquefnoy it was resolved, that application shall be made to the Convention to order confifcated lands to be fold in small lots that every citizen may have an opportunity of buying an arpent or two. The number of prisoners is 7540. LONDON, May 12. Yesterday accounts were received at the Admiralty-Office express from Earl Howe, dated at the Mouth of the Chan nel, brotigbt to Portfrtout'h by a cut ter from Gibraltat, which fell in with the fleet on Wednesday morning l at daybreak. Thursday Comte de Wedel Jarlfkurg, the Envoy, delivered' another paper to Lord Grenville, concerning the refoUitions of his Court, inthepre fent situation ef the powers of Europe. The Swedish Minister also delivered a similar one on the fame morning j both which were laid before the King ; after ■(vhich their contents will come before Parliament. Yesterday at noon, the hon. Captain J. Murray, of the Weazle (loop of war, arrived at the admiralty, from thecoaft of France, where he has been cruizing for some time ; and brigs information, that on Tuesday night the French grand fleet failed from Brest harbor. Their destination is supposed to be to the West ward, for the protection of their home ward bound merchantmen. Captain Murray fell in with Earl Howe, to whom he communicated the foregoing intelligence, in consequence of which, it is believed that the Bri tish grand fleet failed on Friday last, either to attack the French fleet or to intercept their homeward bound mer chantmen. At five o'clock of the evening of the ill. inft. the combined Austrian and Dutch armies, raised their camp before Eandrecy, and marched part for Avef aes, and part for Cambray. French deferteis, and particularly of- hcers, are •arriving in the combined camps every day. Spies are frequently 'arrelted,upon whom jufticeis immediate ly done. On the lit, one was hanged at tiie 'camp at Cifoing, upon whom im portant papers had been found. Accounts through various "channels concur in stating that the King of Po-. land has pat himfelf at the head of his people, who are riling as one man, to vindicate their rights. It is even said, that he gave the signal for the insurrec tion which rescued his capital and his person from the hands of the Ruffians. Salicetti and General Maflena, now conducting the expedition into Italy, as French Generals, are ltalinas by birth. Salicetti was a deputy from Qor fica, and Maflena was a private man at Nice. May 13. Mr. Wiffin yesterday arrived with dispatches from his royal highness the Duke of York, dated from Tournay. He quitted the army on Saturday morn ing, and being obliged to take a circuit, as the enemy were still posted at Cour trayj his accounts bring the operations down only to Friday lash Captain Ser gifon, who left the army at the fame time, has no latet information; they heard a violent cannonade during their journey on Saturday, and believed that an a&ion had taken place. The house of MefTrS. Kirkpatrick & Co. at Oftend, received an express on Saturday evening 110 m their correspond ing house at Courtray, informing them that on Saturday morning the combined armies with their whole force attacked the French lines. The a£tion began at 10 o'clock, and lasted without intennif fion till 4. in the afternoon, when the French gave way, and made good their retreat to Lisle. This account was be lieved at Oftend when the packet came away, and several houses wrote their correspondents in London on the ocea fion. HOUSE OF COMMONS. May 12. Mejfage from the King, Mr. Dundas brought down the fol lowing mcflage from his Majesty : " GEORGE R. * His majesty having received infor mation, thatthe feditiouspra&ices which have been for some time carried on by certain societies in London, in corres pondence with societies in different parts of the country, have lately been pursued with increased activity and boldness, and have been avowedly directed to the object of afTembling a pretended Gener al Convention of the People, in con-, tempt and defiance of the authority of Parliament, and on principles subversive of the existing laws and conftrtutfon, and dire&ly tending to the in trodnftion of that fyftcm of anarchy and confufion which has fatally prevailed in France has given diredtions for seizing the books and papers of the said societies in London, which have been seized accor dingly ; aYid these books and papers ap pearing to contain matter of the greatest importance to the public intercft, bis majesty has given orders for laying them before the House of Commons ; and his majesty recommends it to the House to consider the fame, and to take such measures thereupon as may appear to be necessary for effectually guarding against the further prosecution of these danger ous designs, and for preserving to his majesty's fubjefts the enjoyment of the bleffing6 derived to them by the consti tution happily eftablilhed in' these king doms. Mr. Secretary Dundas fa'id in point of form the only thing he should now do, was, to move that his majesty's most gracious mefTage be taken into consider ation to-morrow; but that the papers to which the mefTage referred, were so voluminous, that he believed there would not be time enough to iuvefligate them on that day. Fron the London Gazettx* Whitehall, April zi. Major Grey arrived this morning at the Office of the Right Hon. Henry Dundas, his Majesty's Principal Secre tary of State for the Home Deparment, with Dispatches from Sir Charles Grey, K. B. of which the following is a copy : Fort Royal, Martinique, March 25, Sir, I have the happiness to acquaint you of the complete conquest of this very valuable Island, the last and moil im portant fovtrefs of Fort Bourbon hav ing surrendered to his Majesty's arms at four o'clock in the afternoon of the 23d instant; at which time his Royal Highness Prince Edward, Major Gene ral of his Majesty's Forces, took pof ■feffion of both gates with the firlt and third battalions of grenadiers, and the firft and third light infantry : And I have" the honor to transmit to you the Articles of Capitulation, together with a lift of the killed and wounded, and a return of the Ordnance, &c. taken finee my Dispatch of the 16th instant, in which I communicated the tranfattions and prbgrefs ot this army to that peri od. The return of Ordnance taken in Fort Royal is signed by the Command ing Officer of Britilh artillery ; but that of Fort Boutbon is the French ac count of it, as there is not time to make an exadt return at present, which {hall be sent by the next opportunity. Having concerted measures with the Admiral for a combined attack by the naval and land forces upon the fort and j town of Fort Royal, and the batteries , of my lecond parallel being ready, those on Morne Tortenfon and Carriere kept up an incessant fire upon Fort Royal, and all the other batteries on Fort Bour bon, during the day and night of the 19th instant, and on the morning of the 20th following, till the Jhips destined for this service had taken their stations. TJfce Asia, of 64 guns, Capt. Browne, and the Zebra Hoop, of 16 guns, Capt. Faulknor, with Capt. Rogers, and a body of seamen in flat boats, the whole under Commodore Thompson, compfed the naval force ; and the land force con sisted of the firft battalion of grenadiers, under Lieutenant-Colonel Stewart, and the third light infantry, under Lieute nant-Colonel Close, from Prince Ed ward's Camp at La Cost ; with the third grenadiers, under Lieutenant-Co lonel Buckeridge, and the firft light in fantry, under Lieutenant-Colonel Coote, from Lieu tenant-General Prefcot'scamp at Sourufle;'" The navy acquitted themselves with their usual gallantry, (particularly Capt. Faulknor, whose conduct justly gained him the admiration of the whole army) carrying the fort by escalade about 12 o'clock of the 20th instant, under the able conduct of Commodore Thompson, whose judicious disposition of the gun and flat boats, assisted by that spirited and active officer Captain Rogers, con tributed materially to our success; at the fame time that the land forces, com manded by that excellent officer Colo nel Symes, critically advancing with equal ardour, forced and entered the town triumphantly, hoisting the British colours, and changing the itame to Fort Edward. Immediately after this General Ro- chambeau, who commanded in Fort Bourbon, sent his Aide de Camp with a flag, offering to surrender on capitula tion, and the terms were finally adjur ed and agreed to on the 22d inllant, by three Commiflioners on each fide, the ratifications thereof being figncd by the Commander iiV Chief, on the 23d fol lowing ; and the garrison, amounting to 900 men, marched out this morning prisoners of war, laying down their arms on the parade of Fort Royal, and were embarked for France immediately. His Majefly's troops havifig marched in, ftruek the French and hoilted the British colours, and changed the name from Bourbon to that of Fort George. I consider myfelf under great obliga tions to Lieutenant-General Prefcott, for the zeal and ability with which he has afTifted me throughout this arduous service, now brought to so fortunate a conclusion, and to all the Generals and other officers.—Colonel Durnford, with tfye corps of Engineers, and Lieutenant Colonels Patterfon and Sowerby, and Major Mauley, with the Royal artillery, have also a claim to my vvarmeft appro bation, for their exertions in placing -and conftrufting of the batteries, and the well-dire&ed fire of the artillery. The biavery, regularity, and good be haviour of the troops on every occasion, has been mo't meritorious and exempla ry- " G. R." Forts BourbOn and Royal have fuf fered greatly from our fire during the ftege, and we are diligently employed to put them in a proper state of defence, effe&ually to secure this important ac quisition of territory to the Crown of Great Britain. I am restoring order aS fact as poflible, from the confufion naturally occasioned by a siege, and have the pleasure to observe, that every thing in the forts is> as tranquil and well-regu lated as could be expe&ed in the time. I shall not lose a moment in embark ing ordnance and ordnance stores, with troops, &c. to prosecute with vigour the execution of fueh other objedis and fervites as his Majesty has been pleased Ito entraft to ftie; and hope to be ena bled to proceed before riiuch time can efapfe, after regulating the garrisons of of these Forts, and all such other mat ters as require immediate attention. Ma-: jor Grey, Deputy Quarter-mafter-Ge neial, will have the nonor to deliver this Dispatch, and can communicate any other particulars or information you may wiih to have. I have the honour, &c. CHARLES GREY. P. S. At the commencement of the siege, the garrison of Fort Bonrbon confided of about 12 00. I fend five Hand of colours, laid down by the garrison, together with the two colours of Fort Bourbon, to be pre sented to his Majesty. The gallant defence made by Gene ral Rochambeau and his Garrison was strongly manifefted on entering Fort Bourbon, as there was scarce an inch of ground untouched by our (hot and shells; and it is but justice to fay that it does them the highest honor.
