Barrc-je, in the name of the Com mittce c 1 Public Safetv.Citizms, treason was t(ic order of the day in the Antilles Und on the Continent, at one and the fame time. The Republic has been betrayed in the colony of St. Domingo by arillocrafs, who invited thither the En-rllfh aiid the Spaniards. French emigrants in London sequestrated St. Domingo iiito the hands of George, from St. Domingo intrigued at New-York for the ruin of our colo nics. Emifiirirs from the ariitocratlc colonies transmitted to us details which we could neither controvert nor cdnfide in. In this Date of things, public opi nion fluctuated respecting the corilmif fioners sent to St. Domingo, against whom the Convention passed a decree of accusation. The deputies from St. Domingo, however, bore testimony to thecivilm of the Commiflloners. In the mean tim.*, we received news of treasons by some >f the commandants of the Windward Iflauds, and we took the firft favorable opportunity of fend ing a faithful and active matiner to no tify the decree to the Commifiioners in St. Domingo, and to proclaim liberty to the blacks and commifiioners to de fend the Windward I (lands. Both these millions have been fuccefsful. The commifiioners of St. Domingo arexow giving us an account of their operations. Citizens, with our fuccefies on the Frontiers we will retake otir colonies. The Republic is chiefly on t'lie conti nent ; the Republic is in pur marine, in the courage of our armies and our fleets ; the Republic is in the energy of the public spirit, and in. the iinpofing atti tude which the National Convention has affmned in the eyes of Europe.

On coming in fight of land, we Warned that the Republic had loft her American colonies, that traitors had delivered them to the English. We harangued our brothers, and ,we at tempted a buccaneering enterprise. We disembarked 1000 men without any im plements of siege but our bayonets, and the fame night foit Fleur d'Epee, de fended by 9000 men and artillery, was carried.

The accounts you have just heard prove that they had kept their word. I move that the Convention decree honorable mention of their con duct, and that of the patriots who join ed them to retake Guadaloupe. Decreed.

We hear the President of the United States is expected in Town to-morrow, 01 next day. He left Bedford on the 24th inft. By an exprcfs arrived this day, ac counts are received that the Army had marched forward from Bedford, on the 23d instant. ■ I (& Many of the Eastern newspapers due on Friday last, were not received here till this day—and these, particu larly the Bolton papers, were in such a wet, torn and mutilated condition that it was impossible to make extra&s from them—had they contained any thing important.—The New-York pa pers, notwithstanding the violent storm 1 of yesterday, came to hand in good order. •i .i • 1...... In a London paper under the head of August 19th, there appears an arti cle, purporting to be an extract of a letter from Paris dated July 31ft, this extraS contains a detail of the events which took place on the fall of Robespierre and his party—On that occasion twenty three persons, distinguished in the Government, were executed, besides sixty eight others, muuicipal officers of Paris——and yet the extradl concludes with observa tions from which it is inconteftibly evident, that the proscription of one party failed, while that ps the other actually took place—that it was a personal contest for power, with which the interests of the people for the moment, had no connexion. " Thus has Paris escaped that scene of profenption and blood shed which for some time had been preparing by Ro bespierre and his aflociates, and which was on the point of being carried into execution. It was forefeen on the 10th ■ of June, the day on which the inviola bility of the deputies was set aside, by a decree allowing them to be carried before the Revolutionary Tribunal, on the accusation of the Ctfiiimitree of Public Safety, which was known to be compofcd of creatures fubjeft to the di rection of Robefpierrc. From that period Tallien, who, on that day, had the boldr.efs to oppose the decree, and who can fed an amendment to be added,- " that the deputies /hould firft be ac cused by the Convention," has been fuccefsfully busied in contriving plans to ruin Robefpierrc, or, in other -words, to save himlelf } for it .vas not pofiible that both could continue to live. His party was strong but timid ; nor could I any thing have made thenr aft, even I when they did, but the certainty, that if forty-eight houri had been allowed to pass over, not a man of them would have escaped thr. blow aimed again It them by Rokerfpierre, and which was just ready to falL " in proportion to the fears with which the sanguinary proceedings of Robespierre filled the minds of all men, so ate the execrations with which his memory is now loaded. It is impossible to conceive the general indignation now expiefled again 11 him, without wonder ing at the address and policy of a man, who could contrive to keep a whole people iu fear, and make them not only fubfervieut to, but in appearance, to approve of measures dilated by one, jvhom each individually execrated in his heart."

Last week patted through this town, on their way to Philadelphia, Sieur Ibrahim and Mahomed Ben Ali —two fubjeils of the Dey of Algiers—the former late a Captain of a Frigate, and the latter his lieutenant. They are at present soliciting permiflion of the Dey to return home ; it being dangerous for them to return after having been taken, although by a fupqpior force. They are gentlemen of refpedla ble families, and from the gratefnl and very affe&ing manner in which they re ceived the attentions paid them here, there 13 no doubt, if they ftiould receive the de sired permiflion, they will be of lervice to our unfortunate countrymen now prison ers in Algiers.
