NEW YORK, November 9. On Monday evening last, a large number of people collected near the corner of Chatham Row—and there .ndertook a luminary investigation of certain matters and things : in effect ing which, it fee ms that one noted brothel was entirely levelled, and all the furniture and feather_beds de . ftroyed ; another of like description, lhared nearly the fame fate. Several rnulket charges were fired from the firlt assaulted house, bv which several persons were badly woiinded. On Tuesday evening the buftnefs was renewed with a considerable re inforcetnent ; and afcer destroying another house hear the fields, the company proceeded to the place called Canvas-town,- where they took fucli liberties with the houses, furniture, and feather beds, as it was thought necessary to over-rule. Accordingly, the word being given for the support of good government, a large number of cirirens repaired immediately to Federal Hall. A company of horse were instantly equipped and paraded, which, with the determined citizens, no sooner appeared, than the avengers at Canvas-town thought proper to retire. The magistracy, with the military, conducted the business with much de cision, while the citizens displayed a audable 2eal for order and the laws. PHILADELPHIA, November 1. A Rove has been invented at Lati cafter, and called the Lancaiter kitchen f'tove, which it is thought will fioon come into general ulfe, and be a great laving of wood to the community. With the fiove may be boiled four pots, containing near thirty gallons ; meat may be roasted as at an open j fire-place, and four loaves of bread baked, with pies or paftrics in abun dance. The kitchen may likewise be kept to any delired degree of tempe rature, and at no greater expence of wood than is necessary for a ten plate stove, • . : > CHARLESTON, November 2<j.

A Speech, delivered by Complanter’ s nephew, on bis arrival from the treaty. Forf-Franklin, Sept. 17, 1793. i( Brothers—listen to what I am going to tell you.—\V r e arc sent on j by the chiefs to let you know what L has happened fmee we left this place, j —Our warriors and chiefs, a great I number of them, are laying under ; ground; we have undergone a great | deal of hardfliip, since we left this I place ; you will let general Washing- S ton know, that we warriors have often | turned out to treat, but now we will f never turn out again. “ Now we will let you know con- Icermng the treaty held last summer, I with the Shawanefe, at the forks of I the river. Lass summer we made an I agreement to go to the treaty ; this I summer, brother?, we have tried I lung to make peace, bur could not Ido it. . ‘ t j t Eight days ago, as we left that | place, a Delaware arrived, informed us, that fome of the Indians are go ing to war, but do not know to what parr.—Nearly all the warriors had gone to attack the army. After t?ur departure from them, they were much vexed at our taking part with the United States ; we now held a coun cil with them, after the council of the hostile Indians—-Alexander M‘Kee, killed three beeves, and gave it to them to make a frolic—three chiefs have thrown off their horns, and are all to be warriors alike, and no more councils to be held. “ The Pottowatimies, and the fix nations, have all put their hands to- . gether, to be on the fide of the United States ; the Shawanefe, and the Tawathtiwias, are determined to be at war as long as they have a man ; their warriors were willing to make peace upon the United States giving up all their lands, on the weft tide of the Ohio, and Alleghany, from four miles from the river, but their chiefs would not agree with it, unless all the lands were given up : they would 1 believe have made a peace, had it not been for M'Kee ; for when they were near a conclusion to make a peace, M'Kee then interfered, and told them, if they would make a peace, they would be ruined for ever, 3nd that he would supply them with any thing they wanted, ai he was authorized to furni/h them with any thing they stand in need of, but men; they have taken 6 of general Wayne’s belt light horse out of the stables.” SAVANNAH, Dec. 7. Extract of a letter from Charlefltn, dated November 29. f ‘ ’ An American veflel arrived here a few days ago, which left the Cape the 1 7th inlt The town was then entirely burnt, and all the whites had taken refuge on board different vel_ lets The negroes and niulatt OCR were yet poffellors of the place ; the Spaniards, who are matters of the town of Petit Ance, in the harbour, were daily cannbnading them very violently—The commilfary Santho nax has left the town, and retired to Port au-Prince—lt is the negro Pi errot who is considered the chief ge*~ neral of the banditti.—Polverel was then at AuxCayes—A vessel is also arrived from Baltimore, which brings information that the ftiip la Boillon, with 160 passengers, arrived there, from the Cape ; Ihe had on board two large calks full of silver, plate, &c. said to belong to Polverel and Santhonax ; who, no doubt, are preparing to visit its, well furnilhed with their plunder and booty.—As soon as it was found out, two guards were placed over it ; one American, and the other French ; the latter was placed by the French conl’ul—Such is the result csf their political measures, that their emigration to those islands has produced nothing but diffrefs, ruin, and defoldtion.” We are informed, that a gentle man in this city lias received advice, from a quarter which may be de pended on, that it is finally agreed on, between our supreme executive and the Britifli ambassador, that all losses and damages sustained fey the Britifli {hipping and commerce, from the different vessels fitted out in the United States as privateers, under French commissions, fliall be reim bursed to the refpe&ive claimants, by these states. . We announce, with pleasure, that in consequence of the favourable re*’ ports from Philadelphia, the general intercourse between that city and ours is again opened, without any let or hindrance lave that of airing all cot ton and woollen goods brought from thence- Os Sunbury races we can at present only fay,—that they occupied but two days ; that Tuesday’s purse \va* won by mr.

Louis Philip Joteph Egalite, the duke of Orleans, having, it is laid, been delivered by the Marfeillois to the commandant of the Spanish licet, the latter immediately had him put in chains, and thrown in the hold of one of the men of war. London, September i. The -official letter from fir James Murray, contains the molt in tercfhng particulars. .An attention however to the range of the cordon of the combined armies, which extends above an hundred and fifty miles, will shew, that the divilion under the command of field marfhaU Freytag, con filled of but about ten thoufaml men, attached to the army which is colnmanded by the duke of tori. It is this divilion that has been de feated. The lots is feverc—lsoo men killed, wounded and milling', and the consequence has been, chat the duis of York , in order to remedy the dilafter, has -been obliged to abandon his position before Dunkirk, and to take port about ten miles therefrom, leaving thirty-two pieces of battering cannon, and considerable (lores. This must retard the operations of the siege, but will not fruflrate it. Septemitr 14. It is fome consolation, how ever, to learn, that the British, under his royal highness, though they have been obliged to abandon thirty-two pieces of cannon, and part ot the (lores provided for the siege, made good their retreat to Adinkcrque, where they are now encamped, without any loft of men—the loss fell upon the Germans. hxeter , September 11.
