As this, reflel left France thejafl of

brought by her must contain very late
apd important intelligence. We are
sorry that such secrecy as to particulars,
(hould be observed ; and that no other
information could be obtained thaii what
has already been anticipated by
that is, that Victory is still the order of
the day; that'the triumphant Sans
Culottes are extending their ci>nque(t»
into the very heart of Spain and Hol
land ; and that the tyranny of Madrid
and aristocracy "of Amftercfcam must
quickly pay their last aft of homage
to the victorious standard of Gallic li
berty.
We are informed that the above ves
sel brings "news of an' army of 1 bo,ooo
French haying entered Spain; It is'i
litewife said, that a French squadron of]
nine frigates bat, for, some time pad,
'been cruising among dve Orkneys, and
