It echoed in my mind, till, ,by the lll'ulioiis of fancy, it was almoit atidiole in my eais \ and I seem ed to the Rev. Mr- Hammer down in the following paraphrase !

" Vigilanfweml a pretty damsel, whose lips were mellow and sweet as the honied comb—"Vigil!" lepeatedfhe, with a bluth that bespoke apprehension and alarm—" And who pray is Vigil 1 hope he will not be impudent enough to call me coquette." "Nay—" muttered a bachelor of tjiirty years and ten, a* he fat, playing with * lady's finger,—"Nay" said he, lifting her hand to his lipS, at once scalding it with his breath and scraping it with his beard—" Maw—" All seemed to be liik-ning for the close of the speech* expedting the ba chelor, aftefa few more nays and maws. to break forth—What! a spy upon us f Let him meddle with us bachelors, if he dares. What, pick our tones, would he! Yes, villain ! but I Hand teady to deny whatever he (hall infrnu ate ngaintt me, faith ! With such a charge, I fay, his mind seemed to be loaded, and ready to fire, when, to our great surprise, grappling the lady wi.h his arms, he gave her fnch a loving squeeze, as squeezed out the doleful ccphonefis, " Murder, Mr. Blank !

Whichever of thefc it might be, as there is nothing uncommon in the two former, and no thing in the latter, which concerns the reader, I shall give him no farther in formation about- it. The phy£cian's bufinWs is with the sick, i aUicr than with the well. He deals more in rcftoratives, than preven taiives. Wounds are to be cured, but fumetinvs cannot without probing.— Some must submit even to amputation aird trepanuig. Notwithstanding the ains of such a process, if life can be fivedby it, we thank the surg eon, as a bencfaftor, although he has taken a fee equal to the reach of his ayarice or the stupidity of his conscience. If the Vigil (liould chancx to observe :my disease, and can prescribe a remedy, he will do it cheerfully, and gratis; ?.i:d, in feeing his prcfcription followed with success, will enjoy a reward far OifTcront from the quack, when driving home the cow of the widow and orphan, a |»av for the nollrums, which ended the days of the husband and fire—the Ttward'of which such unfouled wretch cs have no conception. Foreign Intelligence. r trcnrrar Jldvertifre, from Hamburgh paptri received by the Lady Walterjlvrjf. PARIS, August 6. In the fitting of the National Con- Wiition on the 4th of August Freron propofcd, to dtmolifli the Hotel de ,J SC, V'i'.J at Paris, bccaiife it had served at the la ft. retreat to Robespierre ; it was however remarked, that it was utterly ridiculous to take vengeance on stones for the crimes committed by men ; tbat the Jyjiem of dejlrutlwn hxias over, and moreover the Hotel de Ville belonged to the city of saris, whose feftious had all dfelerved Well of the country. In the fitting of the 9th initant, it Was decreed, that the arrears of penfiond allowed to ci-devant prielts and monks IKould be immediately paid by the ref pe&tive diftiicts, and that in future all iuch penliom (hould be paid without de lay every three months. Cambon proposed to change the name of the committee, of public fafcty for that of central committee of the re volutionary government, because public fafcty could only be procured by the exertions of the Convention in trlafs. This motion was received with umvetfal approbation, ordered to be printed and difenffed to-morrow. WHei the arreftation of Fouquier Teinville was decreed, Freron rose: " all Paris, said he, demands the exe cution of this man. There is no family, which he did not deprive of one of its members. If the juries were led by the villain Robespierre, what must be the public accuser, to whom the tyiant dic tated the charges ? It is time for this murderer, intoxicated with the blood he {hed, to deep hiftifelf sober again in Hell. ' - . Dumont denounced the painter Da vid, who is now in' the follow ing manner : " Citizens fald he,' the so lemn attitude we have now afiiimed, does not permit ustofuffer, that David, this tvrant of the aits, this vile and des picable wretch, who did not appear in the Convention during the night of the 23th July, may unpunished viiit and infect thole places where he intended to carry into execution the crimes of his mnftcr the tyrant Robespierre. The moment is arrived when all Ihadows of the villain, 'of whom Krance is deliver ed, must disappear. David is not the only one fold to Robespierre. The court of Cromwell is not yet deftroy led." ' ' ' . Barrere declared, that he had only to announce the capture of 75 Engli(h, Dutch, and Spanish vefiels, which the frigates of she Republic had made pri zes of} by which means the seaports were abundantly provided with rituals. The frigate la Tardive had besides de firoyed fix of the enemy's ships. Barre''e announced a new vidlory ob tained by the army of the western Pyre nees on the 24th of July, after an übfti nate engagement of three when fhev made themselves maftcrj of a deep mountain occupied by 306 Spaniards, took 320 of them, killed the reft, arjd conquered the rijh Vale of Battan, the* poitsof Beta, Lefaca, Jancy, Efchelor, &c.

The latelt return of the prisoners of Parish makes them amount to 7832, not including those in the Conciergerie. Auguit 8. Hentz, Bourbotte and Goujon, Re presentatives of the people near the army of the Moselle and the Rhine sent the following address to the Na tional Convention : " We received your proclamation con cerning the late plots discovered at Paris, and have communicated it to the ar mies. May the heads of all traitors fall! May all tyrants be annihilated ! This is the sincere wilh of all those who shed their blood in this quarter for their country ; this blood does not flow for a few conlpirators, but for Liberty, E quality and for the unpcrifhable Repub lic. May every one perish who aims at the sovereignty, which belongs to the people alone ! May those fall a facrifice to national justice, who will place them selves above equality. This is what we desire with you, and what all triutnph ing armies will wilh for. The many heroes, who fell for Liberty, (hall not fuffer the difhoner, that the country they have delivered by their courage, be submitted again to the feourge of a ty rant. The events, which happened at Paris, cannot but encreafe the zeal of the armies, and heighten the spirits of the foldi*rs of Liberty, who wi(h no thing more than to exterminate all ty rants. —' «« Van rter Stegen and Van Lanhendonk are the deputies arrived here from Bruflels ; they are to demand in the name of all inhabitants the re-uni on of that city with the French Repub lic."

No detail is givtn of the capturfc of that place, it remains therefore uncertain, in how far this event may contribute, to decide th« fate of Warsaw.

A transport of heavy artillery is expe&ed on the 20th and a nother about the end of August. However certain it Tgemsj that the P> ks' won't be able to make a long re liftance againll the combined forces of | liriiffia: the unexpected delay in mili tary operations oecanOned by the buck wardnefs of the Ruffians, is accompa nied by many inconveniences at least disagreeable if not fatal to the Prufliaa i army. Private letteis complain not on ly of the extreme dearth of all neceflii ries but a!fo of a veal scarcity of provi sions in the Prussian camp, which fuf fei s also by want of good water. A great number of the Pruffiau troops di ed with the dysentery ; and the prince of Prussia himfelf was attacked by this sickness, but he is now recovered.

Warfavv itfelf has not been bombard ed yet. Our army is polled before "he city, in four fortified camps, cortimuni cating with each -other, and command ed by General in chief Kofciulko, Ge nerals Dambrowlky, Zajoceck, and Mo krowfky, who has again joined the ar my. Kofciuflco's head quarters are es tablished at Mohatow. He has been reinforced by the brigade of Madelin (ky. The second camp, commanded by Dambrofky, is eftablilhed before him at Czerniakow; this corps faces the Ruffians in and about Villanow- The third corps is polled before Wo la, against the Ruffians, who are in poflcffiou of Wola and infcll its neigh bourhood ; the fourth camp, in which Joseph Poniatowlky serves as a volun teer, extends from Powalfk to Marie mont and Bielany, in order to cover this quarter againll the Ruffians, poll ed in and about Gttrce. The intrench ments of Warsaw and the fortifications of the camp arc on both flanks covered by the Villula, and enable the troops to harrafs the enemy- and bombard his camps incelTantly, by which many villa ges occupied by the Ruffians, and even Wola have been burnt down. A fix pounder lately llruck the King of Prus sia's kitchen tent, withont any material damage. Praga [a suburb] on the o ther fide of the Villula, is entirely free and fortified like Warsaw. A few Ruf fian troops, who appear fomctimes in some diflant parts of its neighborhood, are quickly dispersed by the Poles, and cannot binder Warsaw from being a-! bundantly provided with all necciTafies of life, which aie brought fiorfl all quarters on the other fide of the river, and even from Lithuania. The Pales took lately all the Pon toons prepared by the Ruffians for cros sing the river Bug, also the poirtoneers and soldiers belonging thereto, besides, more than 100 oxen, and sent all to General Cichotky, who commands a CO rps on the river Nirtw find the lower Bug, finding himfelt 100 -fsablc against the Ruffians in that quarter, has been reinforced by Generals Bielack and Chineliuflcy, who arrived lat-ly with troops from Lithuania. They have ta ken the Ruffian pontoon* with them, which .will be made use of in crossing the Narew and the Bug. All is quiet at Warsaw. The pa triots fcem to be fatisfied with the king, who intends to fend his lall remaining jewels, to the high National Court, as a patriotic gift for public exigencies, ef. pecially to forward the cannon fownde iy. Nothing is known in Warsaw, of an answer said to h« given by Kof ciufko, to the King, who wished to yifit the camp, though it was pnblifhed in many foreign ganettes. The truth is : it being not permitted to the king himfelf, to leave Warfavr without a pass port, he requested the National Court for one, in order to fee Kofciufko's camp : but the High National Court did not find it advifeable to allow a paflf to the King in such critical times. On the 2d ir.ft. General Zajoceck sent in a letter of the King of Prussia to our king, which was brought by a Pruflian trumpeter to the camp near Wola.— The contents of this letter and the an swer to it are not yet known.

Earl Stanhope t'oes not intend to go in to a customary fiiit of solemn black for the death of Robespierre: " He has that within which paflcth lhow ; " Tliefe but the trappings and the suit of woe." The fruitful river of little Cato's eyes began to flow when he read (he fad end of his dearly beloved Maximilian. Like Niobe, he was all drowned in tears. He thought it a hard cafe that a Republicm fiiould die on the fame fcafibld, and by the fame instrument which murdered a King. Paris at prcfent may be compared to Mount iEtna. It contains an immense quantity of combufliblc matter, which at different periods forces itfelfout in a dread ful conflagration, and the Convention is the Crater throuch which the fire buriis forth. By a letter from a gentleman at Smyhia, the ftllowing remarkable circumstance is transmitted : 11 In the night of the sth of last June, the inhabitants of the Iflantl of Tenedos, in Archipelago, were very much alarmed by the several fcvere (hocks of an earth quake. In the morning to their great fur prise, they djicovered a small island, about half a mile ia circumference, immerged from the sea, between them and the Asia tic shore. In the centre was ohferVed a small volcano, out of which iflued smoke of a redifh hue. When I'heard this ex traordinary account, I was determined to be an eye witness of it, and therefore hir ed a small veflel which soon conveyed me there. I was told that it had incrrafed much since the night it firft sprung, and still continued doing the fame. " As the inhabitants are very ignorant and fuperllitious, they were 3fraid to ven ture near it ; J therefore let out for the spot with my servant: we tied the boat to a .ock, of the new island, alia proceeded upon it. I observed branches of coral dif. per fed upon the island ; likewise different forts of (hell-fifh. A melt wonderful noise proceeded from the volcano, resem bling the rumbling of wt c ,g«ii3. ENNIS, (Ireland) Aug. 14. " On the night of Friday the Bth inft. .1 number of mtfcreants headed by one Fitzgerald, broke into a Salt-Water lodge at Kelkee, in the weft of this county, where a lady and her daughter, a child of twelve ycits of age, weie for the bene- fit of the bathing season, and after fink ing and other vile abufii.g the mother felonioufly carried aw»y her daughter. They fired a number of (hots, on leaving the Lodge, as they proceeded through the country, in order to intimidate thole who might be inclined to pursue them ; but It had a different effedl, as it served to alarm the neighborhood, when a number of gentlemen led on by George Studdard, Efq our present high Sheriff, (who fotunately happened to be in that part of the country) commenced a spirited and diligent purit' through the mod unfrequented and intri cate pk-'ts of the country, until they com pelled those villains to abandon the Udy, whom they reflored to her affliiled parents. PHILADELPHIA, The Committee appointed by the citi zens the 3d inft. to flop the inicrcourfe with Baltimore and its vicinity, ca account of a contagious disorder which prevailed there, hive reason to believe that tl.e htilth of the inhabitants of theft places is so far reflored as to render a continuance of reftri&ions unneceflary. It is therefore relolved, that all regula tions which have been adopted by ihi* committee, to prevent the intercourse be tween this city"and the town of Baltimore and its vicinity, be discontinued.
