I lemainv^ir, your obedient servant, s L. Y. ’ Mr. Town* Clerk, I have in compliance w ith the orders -I have received, already j verbally informed Mr. Town j Cleik, which information has been repeated by tlie command ing officer of tlie place, that the Prussian troops under nty com mand, arc to be mated in the san e manner, and are to re ceive the same allowances with the i oval mperial French troops in Nuremberg, but to ipreveid the possibility of a misunder standing, I repeat it in writing, that the officers are to be furnish ed with foot hot dishes fit dinner, besides soi'ip ; avid arc t-~ tsavi? j wine both at dinner and supper j | and always two hot dishes at sup per, besides soup. F.ach nun commissioned officer and private is to bate besides his breakfast, two hot dhhes at dinner, besides soup, and two quarts of beer, I take this opportunity to desire that Mr* Town Clerk “ill ob serve that the troops under my cctUir.and will regulate die po lice of the town with the greatest exactness, and that smoking in the streets is foihiddtn, on p® lll ol such corporal punishment as we shall think lit to inflict, and coivfi>eatio of the pipe, apd at-* ter half past nine, no inhabitant will be permitted to be seen tn a** Tty alehouse; the patrole will look io this, arrest all person* who shall be. found out after that T.our, who will lrTalllably be punished with fine and whipping. I expect ihat this order will exacG lv be observed. Mr. Town Clerk will immediately provide me with a penktfe and paper folder, which shall be returned on my depar ture, he will also take care that ye get all the newspapers that are read here. The beer in this house is very bad, aftd very good irto be had at Kloster Weseuoe, the town clerk will therefore, have several barrels 1 filled there, and setiKto head quarters, or at least from'twenty to thirty pitch ers fyery dry • |it is just the same with the wine : we had a sort of red wine, which at best was onlv tolerable, it i 3 jnst out, and cere must be taken to provide good wine. My officers wp.e contented with that wine, & the table in general, although they had not as many dishes as they had a Tight to demai'uJ — care must be taken to provide a desert at leastvvice a week, t°® gether with at least three bottles of champaign. To preserve good order and prevent the exorbitant bills of inn keepers, I make known that each officer is to have a bottle of wine at dinner, and the same at supper—there are ten officers, therefore twenty bottles of wine must be furnish* td daily—ls this requisition is not immediately complied with, I shall make itr. Town Clerk an swerable for all the unpleasant consequences. ‘ k VON STRF.IT, Mator. Ilead.lAuarlet*, Grasenberg, April 19. TROM TTtt DTCHfirao WITNFS3. On Thursday the 7th v. c were much pleased to observe a tea party, composed of about fifty ladies and gentlemen, assembled under the bower—where tea and viands were served up —after partaking of which, and a few moments of cheerful conversa tion, appropriate vocal music was introduced. It was fitting that a monument raised by republican magnanimity, should be polished by female innocence and patriot ism. The New London paper as serts that sheriff Landon offered wu-.the “ liberty of the prison Tard 1!!” without bail . Novr as every body hereauouts knows there is not a word of troth in this, tlie New London printer will please to correct ihe error. It is well known this has never been offered, with or ‘without bail. It seams as if this was a wilful error ; for even Lamiou’s staiein'ent, which is in the ‘■same number of the New Lohdon pa per, goes to the contradiction of such an asset lion. FEDERAL DICTIONARY !

Strange things since the unr ——ln war time wc hated royal ists ; after that we employed them in convention to makt? a constitu tion—-that constitution guaran teed to each state a republican form of government, but the roy alists and federalists joined in de claring that a republican lorm of government could not be support ed that the people were their worst enemies, and that power could be safely trusted only with the hole of nobles. In war time we hated Britain and her laws, and her whole sys tem of government. After the war, the British government was discovered to be the most stupen dous fabric of human invention, and Mr. Adam*, master of the old school,made all his scholars fashion their hands to the perfect model to the British copper plates. In war time wo were told that no people, loaded with excise could be free and that a stamp act deserved abhorrence ; but af ter the war we had an excise managed by _4yo stamp masters and were ordered to believe in the equality bii <ut excise, and our laud was filled, as by locusts with assessors, deputy assessors, and surveyors of light and air. In war time., the sefdiers were told to fight bravely for hbetty and independence, and that we would patt with huff our proper ty <o pay’theta off. After tile war we riot only kept our all, but we plundered the soldiers of their > earning, denied 10 litem even the liberty of voiing for rulers, and taught them too late the danger of trusting in fair promise*.

Princess of Wales- —Reports of the greatest delicacy and im portance respecting this illustri ous personage have been in cir culation some days. Her infideli ty toher husband has been the subject of general conversation— This is said to have originated in inlormation given by lady Douglas, in so solemn and cir cumstantial a manner, as to ren der it incumbent on the prince of Wales to consult counsel oh the subject. Lie accordingly commu nicated the information to lord ‘TAurloxo , at the same time oh serving, that lie had disdained pay ing the least attention to the report until it had been urged upon him, in the most forcible manner. His lordship advised the prince to lay the several alle gations before his majesty ; which was done without comment or observation on his part. Hl3 ma jesty immediately appointed a select committee of ins privy ceiiusU tg proceed la an ittyes \i<rat:cD of the. charge wthoul delav. The committee i com posed of the lord Chancello.,- lord Sppncr, !rd HtaW-o.#. and lord Cr.nvMe, lady tW. has been examined before the, committee on oath. The duke of Kent went specially to inform the accused cf the nature and extent of ihe charge, and to notify Hut six of her female domestics were required to appear before the committee. This immediately took place and they were examin ed < n oath. The illustrious lady on ftps occasion, observed, “I shall insist on an investigation ; and lest it should be imagined I might tamper with mv servants, I will discharge them all imme diately.” Throughout the whole business vve are able positively to state, that the prince has behaved with the strictest decorum, and wtih an anxiety, that every possible means may be taken to a-svrt the innocence and vindicate the cha racter 0/the exalted personage. His royal highness so far from being prosecutor or accuser has not even been a complainant in the case. ‘ Her royal highness yesterday paid M r . Windham (secretary of state) a v ' ls j t . w hich also has ex ct ed much attention. It is a proof that not the slightest dis trust of the cabinet is entertained upon the case, and that her roryi.l highness is confident of having dofte nothing that can possibly call for any proceeding on the part of government, further than the present solemn enquiry, which was highly desired by her lor the purpose of shewing, the toial faktiood of the calumny, and the subsequent caluainiaioib, which will become an imiispensi* ble duty upon the acquittal. GLASGOW, June 29. On Monday and Tueiday a great t umber of parties met in the different taverns in town, to commemorate the acquittal of lord Melville.— On Fuefday evening an effigy was carried through the flreets of the ciiy. and at the Cross, about 11 o’clock, after many a kick and cuff, tumbled head ioremoft, into a burning por ter calk, amidst the huzzas of the multitude. The ealt fide °f ( he barracks, occupied by the second battalion of the 7th regiment, of Highlanders, was tn the evening illuminated by the soldiers. One of the numerous en ter (a. n meets given in this city in celebration of lord Mel v ihe sacquittal, confuted whol ■y °f Scotch -dishes, such as sheep heads, baggies, oat cakes and barley Icons. White bread snd London porter were excluded by the unani mous rtfoltirion of the com pany. This party had a transparency in one of iheir windows, cf a figure in the garb of a Highland soldier, with the emblem of juflice suspended over his head, and .he motto 44 Lord Mel ville acquitted, his friends re joice. When Bonaparte, at the breaking out of the war, laid his hands upon all innocent Lnglifh, who happened to be at tlie time in France, upon bufinels, or in pursuit of health and plealure, u was cor.lider edawanton afct of barbarity, dictated hy .a cruel and malig' r nant temper. It now appears thai he had wit dn his anger, and that in detaining his vifi. tors he only fought to have a corps of couriers and mes feugers ready to employ in me work of peace, jult as Noah uied the dove when the deluge fubGded. It is now fuffy proved, that not only the En r gulh pitfuners in France, bat tfce frencli prifor.crs i Pi | land are employed in the c munications between tl ie governments. HAMBURGH.
