Genoa , June 8. War between our Republic ana tlie
King of Sardinia is how nearly declared. 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.

Extract of a letter from Bajle, May 9.
w The final! 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

Mr. Kirby, permitted their agonized families and Clergy
men to remain with them till a late hour on TucUay 1 igtit,
and every polfihle indulgence, ooniiilent with lafety was
shewn them. Air. Reeves and Air. Wilkinson matti efted
the-most steady coinpotm c and relignation. Mr. Achtiklbn,

which had been macU so wtrey, fuok into delpondentv,

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.
