The Turks, tbe better ivert the attention of their enemies, mabout five o’clock a smart connonade w Belgrade, as if something impor was on there, after which D > or according to some 2coo, of them arked with great celerity on board a tar of boats, when they attempted iciUnv the dyke, which they attacked in the month of March, and landed, not withstanding they were opposed by 400' who guarded it, many of whom return ing back to the posts in the neighbourhood were killed > but some fuccours arriving, the Turks were obliged to By, leaving 500 of their men dead on the spot. The Imperialifls had eight officers, amongst whom were two captains, and 280 sol diers killed, and General Bechard was wounded ratherdangerouily. They fpeak‘ greatly in praise of a body of Ulahns, who arrived last, and would entirely have destroyed the Turks, if they had not jump ed .precipitately into their boats. The enemy, it Teems, intended to destroy the dyke, and burn all tbe boats they found on the river, having prepared things for that purpose, but being repuli'ed they could not eff'eft it.” By intelligence which we have just re ceived from a very refpeftable authority we learn, that the famous Paul Jones has arrived at Peterfburgh, and was appoint - ed Rear Admiral of tbe Ruffian fleet, . which consists of (hips of the line. The Britifh' officers in the Ruffian ser vice have presented a memorial to the Empress, on tbe appointment of Paul in which they Hate their determi < nation riot to serve under him; at the ’ head of this memorial (lands tbe name of . Admiral Greig. This information was ; brought by a vefi'el that was 28 days on 3 her passage from Peterlbufgh to this coun , try,. and is of more recent date than any ; thing which has lately been received from ! that quarter. , The Ruffiah fleet was to leave St. Pe ; terfburgh the iftof June. Pilots are aU , ready gone to Elfineur from this country ; to navigate their fleet to Portsmouth, where it is to visual and refit. . Some dispatches received from Paris on Saturday mention, that there was great reason to apprehend the tumults through the kingdom would be more general, ef pecialiy as so many people of rank leemej to favor the cause of the Parliament and People. The fituatioh of (be present King Os France with his fubjefts, is exaftly the fame with that of Charles the First with the people of this country, when ill ad visers, and a too high sense Os the royal prerogative, precipitated him into dange rous measures, arid finally involved him in a fate, which his mod severe enemies did not firft wilh him to experience. The visit ©f the Duke d’Orleans to this country, at a period'when his own is in so perilous a predicament, does not ap pear like a mere excursion of plesfure. It seems, indeed, as if the wary duke did not concur with the French monarch in the prefen*'meafures of his government, and yet, for fear of consequences, would not take part with the people, and there fore prudently withdrew from the /cent cf ctftion that he might not excite jealousy with one hand, nor offend on the other by frigid neutrality at a time when the dearest rights of the fubjeft are threaten ed with tyrannous invasion. 1 A Prussian officer has invented a gun, which fires off 400 balls one after another, with a view, no doubt, to extirpate the human race more speedily—as his reward, it is hoped the firft fired off in earnest may go through his head. Yesterday Captain H. Mason arrived in town from Gibraltar. He came through Spain, and had letters for government. The dispute with the Morocco king will be accommodated. 1 k AUGUSTA Sept. 6.
