TIMOTHY PICKERING, Postmaster-General. General Poft-Office, Philadelphia, July 14, 1794. PHILADELPHIA, JULY 16. ; The French Fleet, under convoy of the Concorde and three smaller shipsoor. r war, In all 45 fail, went to sea from t the Bay at 12 o'clock on Sunday lalt. 1 Captain Green arrived yesterday from a Bi*ft, which h.f left the sth June.. In a the beginning of that month or the end t< of May, there was a naval engage ment between 28 English Ihips of the line and 25 French, in which much damage was sustained by both, and vic tory remained undecided. The French had several engagements in Flanders in y which they were generally fuccefsful— Particulars to-moirow. Gen. Adv. a • ' • r 11 Yesterday arrived here in forty-one t days from Brefi, the brig Maria, Capt. t Green. Capt. Green informs that' on the 6th June he was boarded by a u French frigate of 40 guns ; the Captain £ of which informed him, that on the 30th May and 3d June, the British ( fleet, coniilHng of thirty fail, and the t French fleet of twenty-five, had two fe- v vere near the British channel, off Scilly—-that the two fleets r had withdrawn, but no victory was ob- f tained on either fide. Three large sri- t gates hove in fight orl the 7th lilt, the c Captain of the frigate fufpefting they c were enemies, left Capt. Green to pro- v ceed on his voyage. \ In lat. 47, long. 12, Captain Green ] was boarded by an English Lugge"-.— t On the 27th June spoke the brig Bet- { fey of Boflon, bound to Hamburgh, | out 15 days. July 4. In lat. 40, it, lon. 53, 30, spoke th brig Pomona of London from ( Portau Prince ; in lat. 38, long. 68, ' 30, spoke the ship Jane, M'Pherfon, ( from Philadelphia,bound to Hamburgh.

By this Day's MaiL BOSTON, July 11. From Halifax, (N.S.) June 28. The Pigou, prize to the Blanche and Hussar frigates, arrived the day be fore yesterday. She has an American register, and appears by that, to be owned in Philadelphia. The circum flances related as the grounds of her capture, are that she failed from Bour deaux to the Isle of France—That a gentleman belonging .to the Blanche frigate happened to be a prisoner at the Isle of France, at the time (he arrived there, and while she was loading. That he affirms, she ai rived under French co ■ lours, and Wore Frensh colours all the ■ time she was there. . When she was 1 boarded by the frigates, an attempt was made to fink a number of letters , and papers—that they fucceded in part in doing this ; but a part of her papers 1 were got possession of, which corrobo rated the gentleman's testimony above j mentioned—that several French gentle . men are paflengers on board, who are , supposed to be the owner's at least, of ® a principal part of the cargo. There t is on the whole, so much positive evi dence, and so many corroborating cir -1 cumftanceß to prove the property French - that it seems highly probable she will " be condemned. i From France. Yesterday, arrived a schooner from . Bred in 46 days. The French official c account of the Defeat of the Dule of s Tori, had not been published when she '• failed 5 but reports of it were in .circu lation, and it was considered as an e vent of great importance to the inter ests of France. Eight or ten prices were arriving almost every day at Brefl. An express boat from the Chefapeak fleet had arrived there, and 42 fail e*f the line, failed to convoy them in. On his passage the/Captain of the fchooaer fpok the latter fleet, which being r joined by veflels from L' Orient and '' Hochfort, were to 56 fail of the line ; and were then cruising for the protilion fleet. The Captain of the schooner further adds, that it was reported at Brest that an Englilh convoy had been carried in to L' Orient. From the Columbian Gazetteer. MeTrs. Bnel & Co, I fend you an extract from a letter which I have just received from Mon treal dated 22d June. It comcs from a native of "that place, who is a gentle man of such superior education ana ex tensive knowledge, that few, if any, in that country can be supposed to have a better acquaintance with the disposition of its inhabitants and their pvefent state ot politics. If you think proper to insert it in the Gazetteer, it may serve to (hew that the Canadians are not so unanimous for war as some have represented them. " 1 can tell you nothing from this retired place, but that we are in a pro found peace, enjoying the moil perfect tranquility—and that you know, is one of the greatest bleflings that Providence can grant to men, as of all the plagues with which (he affiitts the human race, War is the mod cruel and difaflrous.
