[By arrival! iit Boston and N. Tork,]
' LONDON, Jolf i 2.
The Clef dil Cabinet, Paris paper, asserts,
that the Emperor in answer to Buonaparte's
piopofi'.ien, has proposed an armistice for a
year; but that the French iufift on renew
ing the war utilefs a speedy and solid peace
be -concluded. Thfc German Minister is
not disposed to make peace.
The number of British troops ordered
into the Mediterr anean,-is thought to .prove
that Miniiters are a(Tu ed of the determina
tion of the Emperor to r s -new the war. It
being supposed these troops are tojoin the
Austrian aimy in Italy.

The French aiiniAer of war has issued a
proclamation to cause the confctipts not yet

menacing language against the powers hof

July 17.
We have inserted a copy of the conventi
on of 1793, and of that of 1800. The for
mer was broken. The last doe# not pledge
the «mperor so far as the former. In the
last the government of Austria and Eug*
land, promise not to lay down their arms,
unless by common consent; not to make a
feparatc peace, but by previous and express
consent of each other ; not to receive of
fers of peace w thont communicating them
wjth openness." If the former ft rong bond
was unable to hold the Emperor, what can
be expe&ed from the (lighter.
July zi.
It is said that accounts in peffeflion of
Government, date that Buonaparte in a
speech on the 14th of July, said; " if the
propositions for peace were not acceded to,
he would again put himfelf at the head, of
his invincible army, and in a fortnight com
pel the enemy to treat."
Ministers. by proposing to pay the Em
peror a subsidy of two m llions, exhibit a
confidence in the continuance of war
The negotiations with the emperor can
not be broken off as hostilities have not
been renewed in Italy. It is not yet de
clared whether the government-in Italy is
to be republican or monarchical ; and the.
idea of the restoration of the king of Sardi
nia is not wholly excluded. If Buonaparte j
sincerely wishes. for peace he will not it
tempt to revolutionise a single diftrift more
than wai 'greed upsn at the treaty of Cam
po Formio.

NORFOLK, September 2,
By the arrival of the Friends, Captain

of the flight of Rigaud from St. Domingo.
He had previously loaded an armed brig
with hie treasures, which had failed and Ri

from Les Irois.
The crew of the Constellation are very
sickly with the flu*. She was hourly ex

we learn that one of Rigaud's Cenerals had
arrived there with a number of paflengers,
but the Governor refilled to let them land ;
ijj'g unknown where they went to after

There were several Britlfh Ihips of war

■ "I was in great hopes that it-would have

Since ' my last communication to the public,
there have been repotted to (ne, or otherwise
come to my knowledge, eleven cases, which
were believed to be of a suspicious nature,
a few of which bore strong and unequivocal
marks of this fat\l disease—and out of this
number four have attually died, upder all
the dreadful fvmptoms of Tellotv

» LA MAUPIN.
■4, French finger in the 17th Century,
was one of the numerous iriflasces, in which
a fltage heroine, fortified by public favour
and presuming en the magic of a melodious
voice, defied the laws and institutions of a
c&untry by wliich (hi was filpparted, and
committed, with impmnity, crimes which
would have doomed a common unaccomplilh
ed delpcrado to ignominious de;ita.
'This romantic and indecorous
for I hesitate to call her a female, who dreft,
fought, made love, and conquered, like a
-man, having been married at an early
fortunately for her husband Monsieur Mau
pin, quitted him a few months after their
nuptials, far the superior attractions. of a
fencing-mafter, who taught her the use n£
the small sword, a weapon which (he after
wards handled with deftruAive dexterity
against many ajitagonifts.
In an excursion from Paris to Marseilles,
her performance in a favorite piece was re
ceived with admiration and the.most extra
vagant applause, and, ft range to tell, (lie
won the affe&ions of a btautful young
*voman, the only child of a wealthy mer
chant in that city, prevailed on the infatua
ted girl, to elope with her in the night from
the father's house, and being pursued, took
refuge in a convent. The rigid difciplin*
and correft intercourse oi furh a society,
did not (uit the views atttl temper of.
Maupiri ; (he was alarmed by . certain re
ligiouV dsubta and scruples, fu 6 'grftcd by.tjje
fair fugitive, teg an to .repent of i^er
r. fh and unwarrantable conduft, in quitting
her father's house, with all that was decent
or refpettable in society, for a female bravo,
whom (he dreaded, and submitted to, rather
than Ipved.
Interrupted in her difigns, and irritated t Uy
oppolition, this theatric jjj*
a-t midnight to the building which had to •
hofpitaoly flickered, her, and in Ae general ~
confulion, securing by. force "her unhappy

JUVENIS..
From infamy and fetteis {he hurried to
Paris, was received with raptures at th«
opera, but C">uld not take off the chara&erir
(lie audriiity of her former' deportment. Jn
a cruuded theatre, conceiving herfelf affron
ted by Dtimenil, a favorite a<Sor, remarka
ble for mild temper and inoffenfive man
ners, (he rulhed on the stage, poured fourth
a torrentof abuse on the poor man, interrup
ted tlie entertainment, and caned him in the
face, of the Audience. This indignity wax
submitted to w thout a Hiurmer, and baflcing
in the waun sun-shine of public patronage,
(he exercised for ftveral years a capricious
and insulting tyranny over princes, magi
ftratesj managers, and people. •
At a given by a prince of the blood,
in tbe reign of Louis the tburteenth, La
Maiipin infqlently paraded the rooms in
merj's clothes, and treating a lady of diftinft
ian with ii.decency, was called out, atdiffer
ent times, by three gentlemen, each of wh®m
"lhe run through the body ; yet, such was tbe
puWic infatuation, or so polluted at that
period the fountain »f jullice, that this hell
hound, whose existence was a libel on the
laws of nature and humanity, again was
pirdoned.
Under the impulse of prevalent fafhiott,
peculiar taste, vicious caprice, or a combina
tion of appetite and curiosity,, the Eleftor
of Bavaria made her propofale, which Q»e
accepted, and for a fliort tipie infutted. the '<
inhabitants of his capital ,as an appendage
to the loose pleasures of their sovereign.
But the reign of a proflitute, which xan <•
only be prolonged by discreet management '
and gentle conduft, was rapidly lhortentd
by the eccentricities of a ferocious
who stripping from infamy the thin veil of
exterior soon disgusted her lover. .
Though callous to crime, the German
Prince Ihrunk from absurdity, and after the
violence of passion hadfubfided, refelved to
dismiss a woman so grossly deficient in those
indifpenfible female requifttes, delicacy, de
corum, and ifoftnefs, which I hear so many
young men, reeling from the stews, lament
the want of in those select circles.
After debauching the principles, isipofmg
on the understandings, and defiling the per- .
foils of the'wretched dopes, ought gentle
men to be dif a PP°» lte d in finding them be
reft of those endearing qualities ? When a
midnight ruffian has violated the noflurnal
security of their houses, they might, with
equal propriety, expect to find in their
plundered cabinets, a gold repeater or a
brilliant diamond. ~
The Satiated Ele&ov, with a mixture of
cruelty and kiiidnefs, sent La Maupin a
purse nf forty thousand livres, by the huf- .
hand .of anew niiftrefs, who informed her.
that a carriage was at the door, in whicn
