The Roman Cynfills and French Gonimilfaries and Generals at Rome have coni’ented to the Pope’s remaining in Title any; but they have desired that his Royal Higlmefs would remove hiiß-to lome part rs the grand duchy mote distant from the confines of the Roman republic; in eonfcqut-uce of which his Royal High nels invited his Holinels to take up his abode at the Cii> tlmfian convent, distant only two miles from this metropo lis, where his Hoiintfs arrived, yefierefey evening in toler able good health, and was received with all the attention and refptft due to his rank and c.hgrafttr by hk-Rov ul Highnefo’s lpccial ciders, who lent offers of every thing that could be serviceable and magnificent for his Holinels’s accommodation. \ Ihe Pope would have arrived at this convent feme days footler, had be not been obliged to fly to Sienna and rake lyiuge in a nobleman's cduntry lioufe near this cicy incen fcquv lice ot a dreadful earthquake which took place there on the 25th ult. which threw down a conliderable part of the convent in which his Hoiint fs resided. i his earthquake has been attended with fatal confe fluenccs, and has been continued by repeated Han ks and trembling of tlie earth; and even yeiLrehy the earth was oecafionaily pvrtV ived to move.

It is known that a fliort time fence about -500 Piedm#itefe rebels seized the towti of Carofio, which is entirely fifrroun led by our terri tory. Tlie King of Sardinia, alter fotne fruitlefs applica tion to our Government for a pafiage for his troops, thought proper to order 4060 men to inarch through tlie Ligurian republic and attack the town. The rebels immediately evacuated Carofio, which was taken poffcfficn of by the Sardinian troops. Shortly after a battle took place on the Ligurian territory, near Gavi, the Commandant of which town fired on the contending panics; the battle laded 6 hours, when a column of the rebels took refuge under the cannon of Gavi. The jfkirmifiling continued two days longer without any'decifive advantage on either fide. Tlie lol’s of the Royal troops in killed and wounded was milch greater than that of the rebel-. This inroad into the ter ritory of the Republic caused tlie Great Cc uncil to come to the following resolutions: jft. That the Dirc&ory flieuld take such measures as fliould render the Ligurian territory refptxted. 2d. That all Ligurian citizens would receive notice of the present situation of the republic with rclpect td tlie Court of Turin. 3d. That 500,000 livres fliould be afligned to the Di rectory to enable it to take such measures as would repel any hodile/attack of the Piedinontefe troops. * The frontier* of the republic have been in consequence occupied by the troops of the line, volunteers, and artille ry, and a proclamation publilhed addreded to the citizens of the republic. ‘We are very desirous to know how the French will act in consequence of this affair. It is said that 7000 French troops have already marched to AldTandyia and Novi to watch tlie motions of cur troops and thole of Sardinia. Rajladt , June 13.

Swiss cantons, which,’in point of number, are perhaps the weakest enemy France ever had toencoun ter, continue to oppole the inroads cf her troops with a degree of energy and vigor which give her the utnioll trouble, Avery bloody action took place lately on the mountains which form the boundaries of the canton of Schwitz. The Swils having decoyed the French into a final 1 valley fell on their rear, drove them into a morass, and killed mod of them with morgenilems and the butts of their mulkets. Mod of the officers who were present in this engagement, to Zurich with wound ♦ or con tusions. The French are IVid to have loft up wards of 1000 men in this action, but their loss may be probably exagge rated. The French troops are l’o unwilling to fight the Swiss that they desert in conliderable numbers. The in habitants of the canton of Glams aid commanded by an old experienced officer of the name of Pallavicini; and to judge of their proclamations they are guided by men of uncommon talents. The last accounts date that peace had been concluded between moil of the Swiis cantons and France, the leading conuiiions of which-are, th t the French are to withdraw their troops, and the latter to re main undisturbed in the pofleffion of their ancient vonltitu tion.” ■ i June 7. ‘Hie execution of Mr. Reeves, Mr. Wilkinson, and Mr. ‘Adaui Inn, ich look pi ace y< iurday meaning in the hoot ni Newgate, was the. ni.il awful example df levele jttllke we ever Wuneiied. hree periods all of t|:e rank’ and wiih the education of gentlemen, ibffering at one mo ment, and all for the fame mociern but now uuhappi y com mon crime of.forge to make a deep inipre lion on every heart.

Air. Reeves and Air. Wilkinson matti efted the-most steady coinpotm c and relignation. Mr. Achtiklbn, who had cliefilhed itdpcs of pardon, from the applications which had been macU so wtrey, fuok into delpondentv, and, haying contrived to procure opium in his ceil, had lo iar eluded the vigilance of tlie turnkey s as to take a large dole during the night. At 5 o’clock in tlie morning it was diicdYhrui by the ueleteriouseffebls, and Air. Ramtden the surgeon was feat for.

By the attention of the people, however, he waa able, under support, to join with tiie others in taking the riciy Sacrament, which the Rev.

They all deiireutu have tiie iaff foiemn player given to them m private, that they might remain txpoled to the multitude as fliort a time as pclhole, and with this Dr. Ford alio moil humanely atquieicecU The awful ceremony took place at a quarter pail H y eilerday mormiig. Air. Reeves mounted the platform firft, and Air. Wilkinson followed, both with undaunted though pious fortitude; and while they were prepared for then fate, Air. Adamion was fupporteu by tv\o men, by whom he was at length led to tiie fame olace. He viewed it with, a delirious flare, and it seemed as if lie couie hot have lurvivdtt the dole he had taken, even if the Royal mercy had at that infunt iuremneu. ’ihey were then launched into tfem:r , and such is the mercitul fatality of the iivvf c: nmttuice of the drop that they ail dkvi wuhotii a flruggle* May the exarifplelje a falutarv wan ing to others! ■./ •• - July 4. Thirty-two convents have been fupprefled at Rome. \ • * Gen. Hatry and family have been drowned in the Rhine. A letter from Zurich In Switzerland, dated June 1-* gives the , following circumstantial account of tlie carrylno away of the treasure of that town: On the sth of T the French VVar Gommiffary, Pominler, gave notice that Citizen Rapinat would come in the evening to infpedt the treasure, and that therefore the Deputies of the Chamber of Avlminillration might hold themselves in reaciinefs. A bcut 6 o’clock Rapinat, Ronhiefe, and Pommier, made their ‘appearance with soldiers, and'required the kevs of the treasury. These were refafed him, and Secretary M ttz baffened to fetch the Statbalder Pfenniger,* and the PreiL lident of the Chamber of Administration Wvfs, both cf whom came and protefled againff such proceeding. R a pi_ nat then demanded the keys, faying menacingly, 4 PrAla les bay Queues,’ 4 You fee the bayonets;’ to which the Statbalder Pfenniger replied, t Flad we as many bayonets as you we would ciifoute it with you. I (hall immediately fend an account of this proceeding to Aran.’ 4 You will?’ laid Rapinat; ‘ then do not forget to’ add, that we (hall carry it away in four days'time.’ He breke off tlie seal and ran lacked the treasure, which was yesterday cat. ried away in waggons by the French.” July 16. It appears* by tlie Septs letters of Saturday that the squadron supposed to be Dutch frigates, criming off Shetland, and which had created great alarm, has proved to be the Ruffian fleet tinder Admiral Mackarcff, which failed from Copenhagen the 24th ult. to crude in the North Sea. ‘ July 18. We learn that Air. Aylmer r who headed a large body of the rebels in the county of Kildare, has taken the advantage of the late beneficent proclamation, and of fered terms of surrender on tbe part of thole under his com mand. These Conditions are to give up their 12 chief leaders, on condition that these 12 Ihall not be put to death, or lose their property; but be allowed to tranipoit themfelyes to any part of Europe, Asia, pr America, not in his-Majesty’s dominions; and that those who compoie the main body of the rebel army (hall be allowed without mo’e flat ion to return to their former occupations. We understand that Sir Fenton Aylmer, a relation to the above gentleman, was appointed to conduct this negotiation between tlie Rebel Chief and Alarquis Cornwallis, who humanely acceded to their proposal. Mr. Aylmer is to give fecuritv for i2,0c01. to banifli himfelf from the king dom, and not to return without the leave of Government. A private letter of the 14th Hates: “ There is every reason to iuppofe that orders have been issued to make the metropolis tbe common rendezvous of tlie rebels, and from thence to tolled! them in a’ centre. Those lately appre hended at Rathfarnham were all-inhabitants of Dublin; had 2-j cwt. of gunpowder, 800 flints, 2,cafes of whifev, and no other ftorcs, hoping-to -find- their way to the rebel, camps by the aid of their anus, their green Cockades and green flags. Another party of rebels, all inhabitants of Dublin, Were apprehended on Wednesday night, with their green cockades, in the act cf making their ticape to the rcbcl cairn?. Some of them have made ufeful dffcoyeries."’ . Dub In, June 21. Yefterday"evening, at 5 o’clock, the meft noble the Alarquis Cornwallis landed at tlie Ffettl on the South wall, and immediately proceeded with the usual ceremonies and attendance to the Castle, where hb I.orcliliip was (worn into the office of Lord Lieutenant, General, and General Governor of this kingdom, before Earl Camden and tbe Lords of tiie Privy Council. ‘June 25. On Saturday lull Lord Camden failed for England. His parting levee was attended by every per foil of consequence in the capital, and the caval cade to tbe watei fide was brilliant beyond what is usual on such occasions. The yeomen lined the principal llreets from the castle, and a numerous body of cavalry attended him to tlie Pigeonhoufe, where his Lordship, from every armed vessel in the bay, received those marks of relptit to which the universal sentiment appears to allow him a fail claim. ‘sfk’ ■BOSTON, September 4.
