Reynolds, liMlant, verfui Schooner Suc cess, Debec, claimant. By the evidence produced in this «aufe, the following fads appear : That the schooner Success was a Bri ti(h ■ysffel, on a trading voyage from Halifax ro and thence to Ha- That on the evening of the firlt day of September last, (he failed frorn the Long Wharf, so called, in Bolton, bound to Halifax, and the wind not being fair, (he came to anchor near Lovell's IflaVld, and the harbor of Bos ton, where (he continued till the even ing of th£ third ef September. At a bout one quarter of an 1:our before nine o'clock file got under way and pUrsued her voyage. Soon after (he left the lighx-boute, the people on board difco tered a boat afteru, which ■pursued her, and at about half pad ten' o'clock, came up with her, and took pofleffion of her by force as prize, having prerioufly fired two (hots from swivels, at, or to wards her. At the time when (he liirrendered, (lie was not less than fix, nor more than nine miles from the light house, and was not more than one ma rine league from land. This boat was an armed" boat belonging to tlie (hip Con corde, then lying in Bolton harbor, a (hip of war belonging to, and it) the service of, the Republic of France. This boat had been lying in wait in the harbor of Boston, with intent to pursue the schooner, and capture her, having left the Concorde, the fame e fening that the Success left the wharf, and takea her station on the back of Lovell's Island, where (he watched the motions of the schooner, and as soon as the schooner came to fail, on the even ing of the third of September, pursued her with an intent to capture her. One Samuel Rogers, an American citizen, entered on board the boat at Boston, as a pilot, and .continued on board from the time (he left the Concorde, and di re&ed the courfc of her pursuit, and by direction of the French officer which commanded her, hailed the schooner, and ordered her to strike. The schooner, when (he surrendered, was without the points of land which form the harbor of Boston, which are nearly in a line with the light-house ; (he was within the bay called fometime3 Massachusetts Bay, and sometimes Boston Bay, and would have been nearly interfered by a line extended from Cohafiet te Marble head, the points of which are about six teen or seventeen marine miles asunder, several leagues within Cape-Ann and Cape-Cod, which aie about 40 miles from each other. She was not far from the centre of the water* where fi(h are caught for the daily supply of tbe inha bitants of the towns adjatent, particular ly those of Boston and Charleston. The waters near the (hores on both fides, for the fame distance, are employed for the fame purpose, by the inhabitants in their vicinity, and some of the bays, as that of Ipswich, are more used for the like purpose. Every neutral nation is bound to aft fairly towards such belligerent powers, whose vefiels enter their ports and har bours for the purpose of trade, and not to fuller them to be entrapped and cap tured under such circumstances as they ought to have prevented, when they are under their protection and in confidence of fafety ; and (hould cause restoration to be made, if they are within their jtirifdi&ion when taken. A nation profeffing neutrality, if, in consequence of treaties they admit the _ teffels of war of one of the belligerent powers, and receive the trading vessels of another, would effe&ually destroy their own trade with the other nation, in their own ports, aud juiUy incur the imputation of partiality, and expose themselves to become a party in the war, if they (hall permit their trading vefiels to be way-laid in their harbouis, and pursued in and frojn them thence, immediately on their failing, by the ves sels of war of their enemies, or armed boats detached from them, and captu red and brought back to the neutral ports, without interesting and raufing tharn to be restored, and things placed in Jlatu quo. This expedition appears to have ori ginated in the harbour of. Boflon ; the hostile permit commenced there, and continued until the fnrrender of the schooner in the place before described. The course of the pursuit was under the dire&ion of an American citizen, who entered a» pilot for the purpose. Under these 1 am of opinion ttitf "capture was unlawful, and do order and decree, that the schooner Success, )ier appurtenances, and the pro perty found on board at the time of the capture, be restored to the libelhnt.— The property oh board, of which proof has been given, in two thousand and four hundred dollars, and the articles mentioned in the schedules annexed to the libel excepting those marked with a cross, and in the schedules number 20, it, 22 and 23. That the sum of one'hundred and fixty-five dollars be paid by the captors to the libellant, for damages sustained by him for the hire of the schooner, and the provisionS of the men since the capture and costs.

They have ordered tlx renewal of thefame impofls which bad been •flablifhed during the sovereignty of the Emperor. A Proclamation to th a t tffeti in which the activity of Laurent and Guy ton is highly praised, has been circulated. It is signed H. Van Langendorct and has been struck upon the walls of the city It is reported,but we know not on what authority, that Hluts has at length been obli ged to Surrender to the French ; and that they next mean to attackJ'uccefftvely, Phili pine, Sas de Grand, AxeX and Hutjt. If the French fuceeed, it will render them ma flers of the right fide of the Sebeldt, and en tirely put a flop to the navigation of that river.—The conquefl, however will not be an easy one,fame of these places being, and all of them capable of being inundated in the vicinity. Our Franckfort carrefpondent has com municated to us a circumjlance, which mufl be productive of the mofl important effeSs on the operations of the war. He fays that symptoms of Infurreftion have manifeflcd themselves in various parts of the empire. At Vienna a conspiracy has recently been dif covercd in which several persons of high rauk were concerned. Two hundred persons have already been arrefled. Nor are the Northern powers entirely free from theJ'pi rit of Revolution. Some accounts from the Rhine mention, that Warsaw has surrendered to his Prussi an Majesty hy capitulation —Other and more probable accounts from Gallicia slate that the PruJJians were repulsed on the 31ft ult. in an attack made on Kofciufko s en trenched camp. We shall befincerely happy to communicate to the publick the pleafmg intelligence of the complete difcomfiture of the at tempts of the Ruffians and Prussians ugainfl the liberties of Poland. By the last intelligence from America, itfhould seem that the patience of the people oj that country is nearly exhaufled. It is there no longer a matter of doubt by whom the Indians are excitcd to those aßs of depre dation and murder which are daily 10m mitted upon the frontiers. !Ve can hardly bring ourselves to believe that such has been tbe diabolical policy of our government ; but if conduit foattroci ous has been pursued by mini/lers or by those wboati under them, and a war with America be the consequence, we do not hefi tote to pronounce that such men should be come the objects of the public juflice of their country. " The only common enterprize in which the European nations ever engaged and which they undertook with equal ardour re mains a tingle monument of human folly." So fays Dr. Robertfon of the crusade prea ched by Peter the Hermit. Will not Post erity pass a similar censure on the crusade instigated by Mr. Burke.

He was escorted by 4 dragoons only. On Saturday evening, at 8 o'clock, a party of 30 horse, under Capt. Singer,left our camp, and after riding about 40 miles, at day light took Herman Huibands, and one Wilson, both of whom had been ac tive in the late Opposition to the laws ; the party returned about 10 o'clock last night, with their prisoners, and are entitled to great credit for the expedition and secre cy with which they performed their mis sion ; the detachment was taken from the three city troops. " This morning Gen.
