BacshoT C- MP.
Monday closed the G >urt Martial on
capt. Bruhl, who was-charge.l with the very
serious offence of being: drunk when on ttie
King's Guard at Cumberland Lotlj-'e, in the
afternoon qf the 17th of l.iit month- He
was aflilled in his defence by Mi. Plow
den. The trial lasted three days. The
court fat in the hall room at Sunnmg-Hill,
*nd General Cowell was the president.
The prolecution was carried on by gene
ral Durrard, who bimfelf depoi'rd that he law
the pvifouer in a Hate of intox cation at Cum
berland Lodge, and that he then ordered
him into arrejV, byt that feeing hitti a fe
oond time allowed him to fall in and dolus
duty. He fail "bis particular reason for
this was, that the feftivitr of the day might
not be damped by his Majesty's observing
and ehqairiojt into th« reason of Captain
Bruhl's being- relieved.
Colonel Wynyard deposed, that he found
captain Bruhl asleep in the garden of Cum
berland Lodge, and v ery much intoxicated,
so as not to be able to (land or de his duty ;
that he went up and spoke to him rather
fliarply, and toid him he waS a dilgrace
to the battalion, and to himfelf, and he
weuld report him immediately. Lord Ban
bury was ordered by General Btirrard to
put the prisoner under arrefl, and his Lord
ihipfwore that it that tinle he was drunk:
Adjutant Sabine, who, after captain
Bruhl's return to camp, was ordered to put
him in arrcfl, swore, that, at that time
which was abont ten o'clock, he was cer
tainly not drunk, though he was fail iec®ver
ing from the elfefts of liquor, which were
very vilible in his'appearance. Tothisgen
tleman's evidence the -prisoner objedled, as
not applying either to the time or place laid
in the charges. The court was cleared, and
the obje&ion over-rul»d. Thus clofeii the
profecu-.ion on t(ie firll day.
The prisoner on the fecund day opened
his defence, which he read to the court with
a very emphatic energy. He admitted that
he did fall asleep in the gardens of Cum
berland Lodge, but attributed that effedt to
the extreme heat of the day, the extraordi
nary fatigue of carrying the colours forfe
veral miles, and also to an imprudent habit
of taking laudnum. which he had done on
the preceding night. . That he had been ob
served to rcfufe liquor when prelfed to
drink, Jell being on guard he might te over
reached. That he was perfectly sober the
whole of the day ; that he aftually perform
ed dis duty steadily and properly in every
refpeft. He contended, that he had afled
throughout the day with complete and un
interrupted sobriety, which mull formally
exclude drunkennef*. He entered into the
nature and I'ymptoms of drunkenness and of
lobriety, and tlieu concluded, that, fram the
evidence which he had to adduce, he consi
dered he {hould prove the cleared and most
unequivocal sobriety, and therefore clear
hiraiclf of the charge of drunkenneli, which
had been brought forward in so serious,
in a very liberal manner.
The prisoner then called several of his bro
th<.r ofllccrs, who firft proved, that he bad
been remarkably moderate in the use of li
quor at table ; that lis hud bee.i repeatedly
pre fled to drink, and had refuted, alledging
that he was on guard, that he was extremely
fatigued, and liable therefore to be affefted
by a fm II quantity of liquor ; th*t he was
fecn lleepiug by Lord Catiicn t, who awaken
ed him and r.dvifed him not to continue in
that part of the pardens, which was exposed
to the view of theifMajefties, in the aft of
deeping ■ that he immediately rose, thank
ed Lord Cat! cart for this new mark of his
kindness and friendlhip, and laid he would
follow his advice, and Lrrd Cathcart per
ceived no symptoms of intoxication in him ;
ti at accordingly he arose, and went into
another pait of the garden, m»re retired,
and again fat down under a tree and flep*. j
That some of his brother officers law and '
heard Colonel Wynyard accost him in this
frcond place of rep fe in a very violent man
ner ; that upon jirtt awaking he appeared
con! tiled ard agitated, at being so violently
spoken to by his Colonel ; but that he arose,
aiifwerrd, and aflcd n;oft properly and Ileadi
ly on the occ.ifion ; and that several of
them conversed with hiin about this and
other
Burrard that he was jierfeftty capable of
: doing his duly ; that General B'urrard per
mitted him to fall in and do duty ; that he
bore and dropped the Colours Readily pro
perly before their Majellies, a£d carried them
home on foot, over very rough ground, for
many miles back to the camp ; that when
he arrived there, he was perfeftly collefted
and Ready, and (liewed no signs whatever of
liquor ; and that most of thole who obser
ved him did it with the immediate view of
ascertaining the truth of the leport which
was circulated of*his drunketinefs.—The de.
fence !aft?d two days. Lord CatHcart came
from YViymouth to give evidence—And
as now the lentewce of the Court awaits
the Royal Confirmation from Weymouth,
it would not be Jec<irotis to hazard a con
jefture upon it.
RA.TISBON, July 20.
Extras of a teller.
A fimilav misunderstanding to that which
has existed from the opening of the cam
paign, between Gen. Kray and Starray, hia
broken out between the Austrian comman
ders and the Bavarian and Wirtemberg Gen
erals. It is knt>wu that the Bavaro-Pala
tioe troops have been constantly employed
by the Austrian Generals in forming the
rear guard> from the battle o* Mofkireh to
that of Donawerth, and these g<ner»ls hare
almost always neglcfted to {uppott them In
a proper manner by the Austrian troops.
It is pretended that a Bavarian General chal
lenged and fought M. Szrray afler tlic af
fair of the 19th of June, in front of Dillin
gen. It is certain that M. St array has not
commanded lince that epoch, and that he
has retired into the Upper Palatinate. We
oow learn that Baron Chrifiian de Deaux
Ponta, who commanded in the capacity of
Lieutenant General, the two Bavaro Pala
n'dc brigades, has given in his rilignation,
and gone to Anfpacb, where his children
are. *
It appears also, that in consequence of
the differenc s bstween the refpe£t ve gene
rals, some disagreement has taken place be
tween the courts of Vienna and Munich.
I he Eleftor ;an>pla nsloudly that gene al
Kray retreated along the Danube, leaving
Bavaria exposed. He demanded that gen
eral Chriilian de Deaux Pouts (hould at
least be detached upon the Lcach to cover
M unich ; but it appears that the Bavaro
Palatine troops were not permitted to fepe
rate from the Imperial army. The refufal
has increased the difcontert and ill humor of
the Ele&or. who, feeing that his capital was
left without defence, resolved to retire to
Upper Palatinate with the corps of troops
which he could sffemble from different parts
of Bavaria. The Prince eftabl ftjed him
felf at Amberg, with I o or 12,©00 men,
while General Kray carried off the remain
ing Bavarian brigades with the Imperial ar
my to the Inn.
Count H'enau closely prefled at Ratifbon
by general Grenier, solicited reinforcements
from the Ele&or ; ifter some parleys the
Ele&or sent three battalions, which were
conveyed in waggons, and which arrived at
Rati(b«n the moment after the sews of the
armistice had been received-
It Jj said that the Ele£ior has sent several
couriers to Berlin, and that there is an idea
of a fcperate ptace between Bavaria and
France, through the fntervention df his
Prussian Majelly. Bat the cabinet of Ber
lin, which last year advised the Ele£Vor to
yield to the menancrs of Russia and Au
ttria, does not app ar to be billing to pulh
itfelf too forward, notwithftandmg the per
sonal friendfliip which the King ertertains
for the Elefclor. The latter thought to
gain time by lengthening out the negoci
ations with general Morcau ; in the mean
time the Auftrans were beforehand, and
concluded the armistice in order to leave to
the Ele&or the advantage of having treated
firft with France.
Hence it is generally behaved here that at
the making of peace, the interests of that
Prince will not be as much attended to as
might have been. This., at least, is what
the agents of Austria report. On the other
hand the Emperor of Ruflia, now he declar
ed enemy of the Court Vienna, and who
was expressly guaranteed the Ele&or's ter
ritories. will hardly fail to imediate in his
favour, and to preTSluTFruntan Majesty ta
drt the fane. Besides, it is for the interest
of France not to let the Emperor get foot
ing in Bavaria. If Austria possessed Ingol
ftadt, for example and if he were to occupy
Muuich, it would be difficult, perhaps im
pofiible for the French, in any frefh war, to
force the line of the Tyrol to the Danube
along the Ifcr, as General Moreau has done
with fucb brillant success ; such prodigies
do not happen twice.

danger which surrounds them, remains to
be leen. It ii our duty, as the Heralds of
public occurrence to state the following
fafls, and having' submitted them to our

It appears from the evidence given on the
trials of the Negroes, apprehended in Virgi
nia, and from their sroeral confession, in
the hour of death, that the mod ex
tensive plans »f murder and delblation have
been organized in the Southern States.
That Frenchmen have been the projeflors cf
these infernal plans. That in the mafracre
as the whites, Frenchmen alone were ts*

Duane's publication of Wednesday, that
the Aurora, a paper devoted to the further
