FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE.
London, Augoft 7.
Our readers are informed that two more
Danish velfels have been detained by rhs
Phoenix lugger, anufcrought into Bridling
ton, in Yorklhire. The one was in ballad,
bound to Norway ; Hie other from Copen
hagen to Leghorn. We cannot account for
the detention of tlefe vefieis. Did the cap
tain of the lugger detain tliein without or
ders ? Or did tile Danes resist the attempt to
search them and prefer being Cap'ured, in
order to give additional fwce te the coia
plaint of D-n nv-.fr k ? The particulars are not
known, so that we cannot answer these ques
tions.
Notwithftonding the menacing afpeft of
affairs in the North, tt seems not to have
excited any conliderable alarm, at Lloyd's
for the ililarauce to the RutJian ,nd Swedilli
ports in the Baltic has risen only i percent.
It is improbable, likewise, ?hat any general
order ihou'd have been given to seize Daitifb
(nips at sea, as no hostile me.ifure has been
eaevcifed againll thole in <nir ports.
It is probable that Lord Wintworth goes
to Denmark to endeavour to divert that
court from the fyllem it has ad.ioted, or «t
taft to endeavour for the present, to poft
ponc the discussion of the piinciple, li
would be a mtftrable thing, at tlie present
Moment to fee such a point fubuiitted to the
drcilion of arms. Lord Winiworth's Hay
it is supposed will not be long. Mr. Drum
mond, however will remain as charge d'af
fairi.
Nothing can be more dreadful than the
fate which a rain life rial paper confidently
predifts mud befall tbe Northern Powers
should thry pfrlift in adopting, at a crisis
like the prtfertt, any thing like an irmtd
neutrality. " The foundations of their
thronej will be lapped ; they mud fall into
the gulph of revolution, See. Bcc. and the
contempt and indignation of mankind will
call down, upon their heads, that curse of
which Buonaparte will be only the agent and
the innrument."
Tl'.e Hamburgh papers mentions that the
Danifli General, Gount Von Goltz,
lately paded through that place on his way
to England, from whence he proceeds to

To Readers ar.d CorreepondentSi
Harcowrt's complaint of the coquetry
of his Amanda and of her visible partiality
to a weak and coxcombical rival, would
not be interesting even to our gayer and
lounging readers. The cafe is not a new
one, and it maydeferve compaflion,
will be pronounced by every woman too
common and rrite. He, and his favored
rival are the Edwin and Sir Topaz of Dr.
Parnfll-

Nor wanted hope to gain the prize,
Could Ladies look within ;
But, one Sir Topaz drefs'dwith art|
And, if a Jkape can win a heart,
He has aJhape to win."
The lady, Who tranferibed and transmit
ted the beautiful Lines to Sensibility is en
treated to crop more of the flowers of Poe
sy. In th« intervals of domestic duty it is
more illustrious for a woman to peruse the
brilliant and the ufeful, than to flaunt in
public places or to cheapen fans.
Ah, friend to dazzle let the vain deiign,
To raise the thought, and touch th« heart be
thine.
" Lines from Floriq" are inadmiflible.

Or praise malignly arts ( cannot reach,
Let me for once presume to inftiuft the timet,
To know the Poet fram the man #f rhymes
'Tis he, who gives my breast a thousand pains,
Can make me feel each passion that be feigns,
Enrage, compose, with more than magic art.
With pity and with terror tear my heart;
And snatch me o'er the tarth, or thro' the air,
To Thebes to Athens, when h« will and where."

The Epiflle fiom the Friends' yearly [nett
ing, {igned " William Alexander," it as
usual, fraught with the purell spirit of true
Chriflian morality; for which they with the
other clafles of the Christian Church, will
be bitterly araign'd by our Jacobins.
It mufl be pleasing to »ur worthy PreG
dent and to out southern brethern to learn,
that (liould danger encreafe, and their coun
try call, the True Federal Blues as America,
will again feijze their mutketj to defend their
country—already do we fee the uniforms
preparing, and they fay one to the other,
" prepare, for our country ere long will in

Duane fays that fifty persons who were
under arms in the Legion on Monday, had
a fliare in the battle of Germantown—
but he don't fay a word about whose army
they were in ; we know that many of them
are recently from Britain and Iretand.
" The End shall justify the Means,"
Is a maxim of long (landing, and universally
praftifed by the Jacobins. It was this fa
vouriteaxiom, that urged thecharge of Deism
againfl Mr. Rofs, prior to the last eUdlion
for Pennfylvania. The basest
means were then used, by the Bemos and
the end was obtained by the ele6\ion of
M'Kean- It was a belief of this " Aurora"
falfehood, that loft the eleftion of Mr.
Rofs, and although fully and clearly dispro
ved, bv the solemn testimony of a Clergy
man, and the Veftryof the Church to which
he belonged, yet the aifertion had its eflec> t
and many haneft, worthy farmers, and others
do to this day believe the charge, and were
induced to vote against him for no other
reason, (I must confefs, that were the truth
ot the charge substantiated, it ought to ope
rate against every man). It was by this
falfehood, widely circulated, and bodly
aflerted that the good, people of Pennsylva
nia were deceived, by pretended friends to
Republican Liberty ; that they did mislead the 1
people, and that their boasted refpeft for
religion is a mere veil to disguise their real
views, it is only nectff.ry to oblerve, that
the fame charatters who cppofedMr. Rofs,
as a Deist, and supported M'Kean, as a reli
gious man, aie now supporting an acknow
ledged Deist in the person of Jcfferfon ; and
we defy all his satellites to prove the contrary,
for out »f his own mouth is he condemned.
It was at one time given as reason, why
M'Kean, ought to beele&ed, because he be
longed to the fame Church with Adams*
and consequently Was a goo I man ; —if the' its
was so necefT-try to tell the people, to what
Church M'Kean belonged, why do [they not
(hew to what Churqh Mr. J. belongs, and
why do they not bring Certificates toprove
him innocent of the crime, as the Federa
lists did with refpeft to Rota ; a(k them
these questions, and theyare mute ; fubteifuge
is in vain resorted to—He (lands confessed
a Deist, juid amember of that Church, whose
partizens think it of no consequence whether
a man believes in Twenty Gods or Na G»d.
Suchis the Charafter whom, the Amiiiiean
People are told is their friend, and are
called on to support, as the Chief Magi
strate of their country. Let them then
make a solemn pause ere they pass the Ru
bicon.
I trust my countrymen have ret too much
real refpeft for the religion of their Fathers,
, to place this man in power ; the Jacobins
are seeking the ruin of our country, and
the " means (hall juflify the end," Unite
then Americans, and remember your faith
ful, and well tried friends, the Ftdera
lifts, and by giving your votes for Adams,
and Pinckney give a deadly Mow to afpir
-1 irg ambition.
