PHILADELPHIA,
JI 'NDAY KVKNING AUGUST 25.
We have received a New York paper of
this morning, containing the trial of Had
field ; —part of it will be found in this days
paper.
This morning a fire broke out in the
lugar-doule ot A'Jr. Edward Peningtoit, in
R ice street—and did conliderable damage
before it was extinguilTied.
The Editor of the New-York Daily Ad
ycrtifer, promises a translation from a Paris
paper of an mterefting detail of the trial of
the fti'p Pigou, containing a lengthy speech
of the CoininiCT.ii'y General, together with a
late maritime law of great consequence to
merchants and underwriters, which has never
been publiflied in America.
Tha following Marine article we copy
from an Ealter paper :

Extract of a letter from a respectable gen
tleman iri St. "b mas, dated Jitlj 30.
" The Governor of Guadal upe h-$
sent four privateers and 4.00 men ncrainft
Curracoa, to bring »to r<alon the Governor
ot tlut Island. Fh<? consequence of this
extraordiiury exp chtmn is not yet known.'"
Ebenezer Saui d rs, w'!ir> was convifleJ
of r bbing the mail, and imprisoned in the
jail of Annapolis, lately put a period to his
exifterice by laudanum. ,
The United States schooner Enterpriz?,
lieutenant Shaw, has lately taken two
French privateers, viz. the fciioouer I' A'.ole,
mounting ten guns and Se men, and the
schooner Flambeaux, of twelve guns and
98 men. The Flambeaux engig'd the En
terprise nearly twi glafles, when having her
so rem aft (hot away, and the Ente prize
being about to board, she struck her colours.
L,'Aigie was engaged i 5 minutes, and had
f. veral killed and ' wounded ; among the
former was the fir ft lieutenant. During her
last cruise, (he has raptured American pfo
pertv ;o the amount of 295 03 dollars.
The Er.terprize in both these aaionsloft
rone of her crew.
The spirit difplaysd by the enterpnfing
c-pt. Shaw of th« Experiment is applaud d
even by our J ,robins (tbose ofjoreign bir.h
only excepted), to have taken two armed vef
feis of force, equal to their, own. in fair b»t
tle and in one Hi rt cru.fr, has fallen to the
lot of but vrry few'naval command' rs of any
country. Indeed a hiltory of the many iq.
(lances of courage displayed by our country
man b eh in battle and in re-captures t by
fk'll, united wi bravery, would have no
parallel in the naval affairs, even ef Europe.
It was wort! y of remark that tlv fe very
Jacobins w'rn on the firfl appearance of the
letter to Mazzh, called it " ever and anon"
a forgery to injure the' chirafler of Vice,
P.ou fit d that Mr. J< fTn son could no
longer r/bape from the charge, have i ad the
tmparralrled effrdnt ry at 1 ft to juftify its
malevolent content?.
Thus it has beetr/nne immemorial with
all Ignorant Slaves to mere found, or to the
nioft barefaced pretention.—lf any'worth
lefs individual could find money enoush to
pay for eithrr a daub ot his " effigies" for a

wretches who would cry ouc with affiled
transports of joy at such incontelLble evi

INTERESTING.
In the cafe of -the Danidi fliip Mn! len r els,
captain I'. ul Boyfen, trom Pfnladclphia to
Anulerdatii, with a valu ble cargo cf i'ugars,
cofler, tobacco, &c. capturtd by the St.
Albans British man of war, and carried to
Halifax, where the ship and cargo (except
a very finall pari) have been condemned
on the fellow.ng grounds, viz.
The several parts of the car?o claimed by
Mi-flYs. Will'on Hunt, Wilcocks Sc Co.
Henry & Hoggs, and ( Davy, were con
demned upon nearly fimiiar grounds, In
the cafe ot Wilson Hunt it appears by his
letter to hii c«rrefpoiideut in Amsterdam,
that a Mr. Saikeld, one of the house of
MrfTr? Barclay & Co. of London, had pre
viously flii}»)sed pr< perty to Amflerdam on
accovuit of thathoufr ; and with regard to
the property on board the Muhlent-ls, the
letter of Wlr. Hunt dated it to have been
iuhjeft to the fo!e direftion of MelTis.
B-uclay So Co. and upon that ground <he
Judge d;croed it to be a trade r rried on
t'Y tie enemy by a Brit;fii ft-bieft, and
tlfrritpon condemned it. •-
I" the cafe of Mcffrr. Wikocks k Co,
their letter to their correspondent "in Hol
*" Nated thru- property (the' not in fiich
I'rong term.? r.j that jbf Mr. Hunt) to be
Tn t0 tlie of MeflYs. Ba;ring
and Co., of London, 7nd-<he Biih of Lading
fperifii-d the Cufke to be delivered to that
House, who wtre alio requeued to give their
approbation to the i.ort'efpoiiderit appointed
">■ MvfTi i. vVilcock's at Amsterdam, and
u ? or ! these grounds the Judge did not think
himl'elt warranted to diftrilgiiiTh Between thi?
cafe and that of Wilson Hunt.
In the cafe of Henry Sc Boggs, the pro
perty was -fhipt to their order, hut the Bill
ot Lading -being endorsed, to Meflts. George
BnfcUy & Co. ot London, and the Judge
conceiving Mr. Henry to be a Brit (h sub
ject, that part of the Cargo was stlfo con- i
demned upon the ground of its going to an I
enemy's port. *
In the cafe of Davy, the Judge con
sidered him to be a Britilh fubjeft, ?.n:t as
the proceeds of the property was palling
through Amlterdam to his brother in Lon
don, a condemnation was slfo r.djudged on
t;~- ground of its being a trader between a
Bntifh fubjeft and the enemy.
1 he claim of Mr. Bohien was ;.lfo rejefl
td, though upon grounds different from the
former 1 he Judge aflerttd him to
* Dutchman, and the property being di
vided into three separate conlignments, de
liverable to persons who were to be advised
at a Julureperiod how to dispose of the pro
ceeds. Ihe court condemned the property
as belonging to the enemy—ln this decision
hefaid he was alf> jultified, by a letter from a
Dutchman in Phila. to oneof tbircoiifignees,
aTioufe'i 11 AniQerdam, containing direftions
to ship property on his account and risk, to
Mr. Bohien instead of himfelf, to mike it
appear B hleu's property, as he had not re
lided a fufficient time in America to become
a citizen.
The refpeflive, property of Messrs. Taraf
con and I h inn was condemned on the
giound of iheir beiiig French' en, notwith
standing all that was urged upon the ground
ot their citizenfltip and long reticence in the
United States.
1 he (liip w is condemned upon the ground
of her having been curchafed in an enemy's
port, and no bill of sale or regular convey
ance irom the Frenchman that purchufed
her at Guadaloupe.
It is unnecell\ry to make any remarks oh
the acquitted part of the cargo.

1 HE KING and his BEARD.
A certain King was once cut by hia B ir
ber in /having. He was very angry and
forthwith swore that if any B.rber should
thereafter draw his blood, he should instant
ly forfeit his e d. Nothing could be more
unfortunate ; for who would shave even a
kin? 011 such terms ? Butrtbe king's beard
grew notwiihllanding his oath ; he thought
it grew fad r than before. Whether this
was owing to the encrcafed heat and effer
vescence of his fy lem, or was a mere con
ceit of his imagination, I leave for more
learned philofopbers to dil'cufs at their lei
lure. But the fail was, his beard grew on,
and nobody was found bold enough to shave
it. N either could the king 011 any account
recede from his o.th. The wife men of the
nation were called together ; the important
cafe wa- submitted to them, and great
wealth and honours were promised to bim
who should relieve the king. The fitting
of the wife men continued a lorg time.
'• he discusS in wai very learned and very
profr.und on the obligation of oathi ; their
different kinds means rf dispensation, &c,
&c and the debate was animated by the
! promised reward. But dill tbe beard en
crcafed with a flow and Heady growth, and
; regarded not the counsels of the wife men.
1 At length the following report was agreed
011 aid formally mide to the king by the
venerable Prefideot of the assembly—-' that
after difenffi ig he fubjedt committed to
them in ev ry poflible mode ; after feareh
ing the libraries of the learned andexhawft
ing the ormt of logic, it was folemply con
cluded tiiat hismajefty had ma e a veryrafh
and unfortunate oath, but no remedy for it
could be difcovercd." Alas ! said the king,
is this all that human wisdom can do, to in
form us of the ills we already feel, and con
fifs its inability to. lessen or remove them.
'1 lie assembly of wife men was dissolved, and
thty all went home without the-p'omifed
reward; but each was conscious he had
made a very confpicuuus and honourable
figure in the debate This was a great con
solation to them ; but none to the king.
I he king's wife who was greatly mortified
at the growing deformity of the beard, pro
pol d that since the wife men had failed, an
assembly of foo : s should be called, to try
what they could do. The reward Wiis
doubled, for, although fools were as plenty
i i his majesty 3 dominions as elsewhere, it
required a strong temptation to indure them
to own themselves. / After ali the assembly
Wiis but thinly attended, and it was general
ly thought that those who did attend were
not the greatest fools—the greater the fool
the more u likely is he to discover and ac
knowledge it ; the discussion was fliort, and
the result the lame with that of rfie wife
tVien. Alas ! cried the king, is there so little
difference bet we n a man and a/00l !
The one talks a great deal and reasons pro
foundly, but does nothing, the other does
as much and fayi nothing about it. The
Beard by att nding on all these discussions
las become almost intolerable. I will leave
the matter to my wife, said the king in a
fret ; she is midway between the wife men
and the fools. I-'he advised him toJhave him-
Jef. God bless me ! I thought the king
could not shave himfelf ; —pray who told
you so ; I have said no such thirg.
-j We fometiraes plague ourselves for deep
and learned modes of attaining an objedt,
when fimplcones are at hand.

* " Ton amour, O Fi h: cherie."
Life of my life, thy .charming- smile,
With rapture fires this throbbing breast ;
For thee, thro' day, I'd hear each toil,
And watch, thro' night, to guard thy reft.
Fe.arl-.fs, O seek my calm retreat,
I'll deck each grot, e.a;h bower for thee,
And, 'till tl]is lieirt shall cease to beat,
1 hou (halt be all the world to me.
1 ho' winter drear, with howlim* ftorrn,
! ii - ive from the pliin the vernal b!o«m,;
Thy cheering smiles, thy allge 1 form?
Shall make a spring, ilsid/w«9ter's gloom.
And (hould the florms of life arif-*,
My foul fh.ijl never know despair ;
I'll look for comfort in thine eyes,
And in thy'arms forget each care.
My life, my Zimia, when thrni'rt jiear,
What t rani porta in my bosom roll !
1 hy name, thy gentle voiee to hear
Is music to thy (hephtrd's foul.
How quickly throbs my anxious heart,
My life, my Zimia, when thou'rt near ;
But fore'd, dear maid, from thee to part,
That heart would built with deep despair.

Ct TIZENSREPR'S NTATITES,
YOU cannot be ignorant of the friend
fhip my *arher and my elf have ever enter
tained for the French. I fought f»ery op
portunity of proving it during yours rtrier
Government and I have dons all in my pow
er finee the commencement of your revolution to
make tno-wn to you the fentimen s of my heart.
From want us opportunity an I of inter-.
; course with persons acquainted wi.h your
j cnltoms and manners, 1 have not been able
■ before this lime to inform you of my inten
j c ons. A fortunat' chance hrs sent me ci
j tizen Ripaud (one of the officers) who at
myrequeft, has answered all the qutftiong
which I put to him. I ronfider him to be
; worthy of my confidence, and from w'.at
1 lie has told me, I perceive it it now the mo
ment for me 10 revive the friendship tuhith I
have a ways entertained for vour natiou, I ac
knowledge the foblim ty of your cbnftituti
on, and as a proof of my sincerity, Ipro
pofe to your mtion and to you a treaty of alii
a ■ce andfraternity, which shall be for eiter in •
di/Jt/ablc and fha Ibe so nried on repub lean
principles, offincerity and of good faith ; <oihe
end thai you and your ' nation with myfdf and
my people may become one fa mils ; thai the
fame oath may bind us far life or for death;
that your enemies may be mine and those of my
people ; and that my enemies may be conjider
t.l as yours. Thus do I with henceforth to
treat with my allies You now fee my dis
position towards your country, when 1 /hall
receive a proof of yours, I' will falfil my
promises, but Citizens- Representatives. I
will not fulfill these engagements with you
until I fee your forces a: well naval as mili
tary aduallv arri ein India. During the
lad war (it is with regret that I am obli
ged to recall to your memory the disasters
which my fritndfkip fbr the French nation
has brought upon me.) I maintained with
zeal and courage, all the pretensions of the
French. The English, the ambitious En
glish, not having fufficient confidence in
their own ftrengtk and courage to attack me
singly, formed an alliance with the Matrat
tas and the Nizam, and attacked me in ev
ery quarter. At the very moment when I
was 011 the point of conquering them, the
French army undej- the command of M. do
Cofiigny, received an order from M. de
Buffi to abandon me, though I had paid
them well, and they were in want of no
thing : but what filled me with indignation
was, that those orders extended to M. de
Lally, who commanded a body of French
in my pay, to withdraw himfclf with his
party, this I oppnfed and on jnlt grounds.
From that moment, my axmy became dis
gusted. Reduced singly to my own re
sources, and abandoned by my allies, I was
compelled to make peace, with the lols of
halt my Dominions, and three Ct-ores and
thirty thousand Rupees in specie. Behold
what have been my losses, Representatives !
What is pall is pad : I have cited these
truths in order to apprize you, that if I
fh>uld declare war against your enemies, I
will not be deserted, nor (hall you have the
power of makmg peace without my previ
ous content, nor without includmg myffclf
and my people in the treaty. For the se
curity of our reciprocal friendfhip and good
faith, it is necefiery to stipulate one pre
limina-y condition. It is this, as my peo
ple are ignorant of the customs of the
French Republicans, and as the Republi
cans are equally unacquainted with the cus
toms of my country, if one of the-citizens
of either party should violate the customs of
the other, he shall be reprimanded immedi
ately by his own superior, without any in
terruption of the good understanding and
harmony, which ought to subsist between
good allies. I insert t! is clause. although
Citizen Ripaud has allured me, that the
obfervanee of the mod severe discipline and
of refptft for the laws exists in the Repub
lican army : Mine shall always be conduct
ed in the fame manner. I require also that
| the commanding officer (hall always confu't
me on every measure which he may under
take for the deftru&ion of our commoti en
»ny, because I am acquainted with the coun
try its customs and manners. This is a
reservation that he cannot confidcr as offen
fi"e. Happy moment ! tbe time is a/me when
I can dspr.ftl in the bosom of rr.y friends, the
hatred -which I bear againjl these opp effors
of the human race. If you wilt ajfift me, in a
Jhort lime, not an TnglifhmanJbaU re. lin in In
c*ia ; you have the power and the means of ef
fusing it, by your free negroes, -with these new
citizens ( much dreaded by the Engltjh) join
ed to your troops »f the line, <we will purge In
dia of these villains Th' springs which I
have touched have put all India in ma ion, my
friends are ready to fall upon the Englijh ; for
every thing here rely on my discretion. Tour
enemies, as I have apprized you, Jball be mine.
Now you are apprized of my defigr s, delay
not to imform me of yours, but make no
promises which you cannot perform. I
i have retailed citizen Ripaud to answer your
j letters, ana I will gi»e him a salary worthy
I of the situ it ion which he holds near my per
son I entreat you not to be offended with
him, but on the contrary to approve of
what he has done, and to quiet his appre
hensions of bring considered a3 a deserter of
his to' ntry and of his colours, (a laudable
motive which intetefts me for his welfare)
I request you to authorize him to remain
in his present ftatioil with me for the ser
vice of his country, of your colonies, and
of my ft If. I detained him, nor did he cort
fent to remain till afte* much fo'icitation, be
ing extremely attached to the island of
Bourbon, to which he b longs. In cafe
you (hould consent to my proportions, it is
necessary fliould know the ex entofmv
power to aflift the French Republic, and
its army.
