wounded defender of the Republic —
Our enemies call us licentious, in order
to have an opportunity to display their
fnperior (kill in devising the mod fcurril
lous, and at the fame time the most
contemptible invtctives against us.—
They acc'ul'e us of a delign to perpetu
ate the dissensions among the Citizens ;
and p'lbiifh dai'y fume hundred pam
phlets, in oidcr to provoke aifrf challenge
us wit'iout intermission ; we dont want
to refute the impertinent Itories, invent
ed by quacks paid in proportion as they
excel in publishing nonsense. Let the
ariltocrats spend their treasures in their
vain efforts again It popular societies ; let
them hire all the vile pens,"and fquieze
the dry brains of their Paralites, we
laugh only, at the awkward manoeuvres
of their fatellitcs.
The fcribtders form the advanced
guard of the ariltocrats, a cowardly and
effeminate arrtiy ; some of these gallant
troops are now detached to harrafs the
enemy on all fides under favour of the
night ; unhappily tlie different parties
met each other on the road, and ftritck
with a psnic at the appearance of some
thing like men, they fire some shot in
the air, and abandon the supposed field
of honour with the utmott. precipitation,
being confciousthat a tingle look, nay,
th: shadow of an enemy they provoke,
oietv,
is fyficient to petrify them ; but Ihouts
of viclorv ! victory ! fill from all tides
the air, as loon as these gallant warriors
discover again the glistening camp ot
bantjuetting ariltocracv; each column
fnw, met and routed the enemy, whose
loss must have been im i enfe, tonfider
ing that the victorious heroes loft only
their arms, which they had thrown a
way in the heat of the engagement.
One of theft cowards is filly enough
to a Cert that the Jacobins were as Pe
ter Ptninylefs ; that they had not a sous,
and the quack. Baraily, another lea'der
of that gallant phalanx, cries out, in eve
tfy corner of Pat is, that the Jstobins had
engrofTecf all the riches of the monar
chy ; fenfihly offended that his fpleudid
sale-'ts did not projcurc him a place in
difcriminately called Jacobins ; be ac_u

English for the blood of the Republi

unnaturally torn : these are the argu
ments of those men, who after the
ftorna is over, step boldly forward, as
reformers of what has been done, while
they were hid in the mud of the moraf» :

those intrepid life-guards, that the re
furreftion of the Vendeans is confirmed,
that the catholic army is within 150
miles of the capital; or that the Auf
trians are already at Briflac, and you
will fee how precipitately the heroes of
the day will pack up and abandon Paris
and the Convention to their own fate.

Extract of "a letter from J<Tcmie, Novem-

We this day learn from the Mole, that
on the 18th three Spanish ships from Cuba
which have entered the harbour, confirm
the news of the nomination of Don
Ariftiflabel to the Generallhip of St. Do
mingo, at the fame time commander of
the land & lea ferces. He is to proceed to
Fort Dauphin, with the ships of war and
7000 men, after having convoyed the
fleet for Europe into an high latitude. We
are assured he has orders trom the Court
of Spain to fend home, dead or alive that
monster Don Joachim Garcia.
letter from the Mole fays, General
Williamfon will arrive eight
days, and 6000 Englilh troops are expect
ed daily, that the two generals are to con
cert their attacks, their fear of which has
already determined Gen. Pageot to retire
from Portau Paix to the Cape,with his re
giment to reinforcc that place.
We learn that at Jeremie the moli
vigorous measures are taken against the
Mulattoes. The defpofitiotis of per
sons arretted in the last conspiracy hav
ing apprized the people that there were
vet 200 dangerous Mulattoes, spread
abont the neighborhood and in various
fields, a general review was ordered in
the town at the pofisand feeret instruc
tions given to disarm all the Mulattoes.
This was executed with difficulty—the
Mulattoes are imprisoned, and it is said,
will be sent to Jamaica.
