PARIS, October 24.
The revolutionary tribunal is now
employed on the trial of Briffot and
the other arrested deputies. The
usual preliminary questions have been
already put to them : when Autiboul
was allied his profelfion, he laid, dejen
der of the rights of the people and perfect*-
tor of tytants. The ad of acculation
against Sillery (files him, the difgraceful
confidant of a contemptible prince.
October 25.
The revolutionary tribunal has this
day divided itl'elf into two fe&ions,
in order to expedite its labours. The
second lection has condemned to death
a mechanic of the name of Martin,
and Pierre Claude Janfon, convicted
of having uttered words tending to
the re-eitablifhmenr of royalty in
France.
It is not true that the ci-devant
duke of Orleans has arrived at Paris,

from Marseilles to the capital.

HAVRE, Odcber 26.
The day before yelferday four
targe Englilh frigates appeared in our
i.arUour. Ihe national com million
ers were on board the Serieufe, which
immediately cut its cables, and retir
ed under the protection of the bat
teries. A heavy cannonading was
immediately commenced against the
frigates, which was not returned.
They immediately let fail and retired
out of the lire of the batteries.—•
They are however (till in light.
OSTEND, November 2-
By the lalt mail I informed you,
that the French were retreating from
Nieuport, and I can allure you, that
they have entirely evacuated that part
of the country, but not without com
mitting great depredations on the de
fencelefs inhabitants. They have
carried off the bells, and the lead
which covered the churches, and it is
laid that they have burnt the church
at Ealt Dunkirk. It teems the Car
magnoles were in a great hurry when
they began their retreat, as they left
their guns and mortars just as they
were, without spiking them. 1 hey
conlifted of 24 pounders and two
mortars, one of ten inches and the
other of thirteen, with a good many
shells and balls, and two barrels of
gunpowder, the whole of which has
been brought into Nieuport. Ihe
transports with the four regiments
from Portsmouth appeared off here
the 31st ulr. but they did not come
into the harbour, and I luppofe there
will be no occasion for employing
them in this country. Sir Charles
Crey ‘is still here, and this day he
went out with a party of officers, I
suppose to take a view of the country
to the westward, to fee if there was
any appearance of the enemy to be
seen.
ERUSSELsToftober 30.
The greatest part of our frontiers
is now happily delivered from the
French, who have committed every
fort of excess, and have even killed
many poor people, after plundering
them of every thing,; in Ihort, the
details of all that has been done by
the enemy from Menin to Furnes is
too shocking to be related.
It was the duke of York, ad
vanced very opportunely with a corps
of Englilh and Hanoverians, who
forced the enemy to retire from the
territory for fear of being surrounded.
We do not hear of any thing very
interesting having lately happened in
the army commanded by the prince de
Cobourg.
We have accounts from the Rhine,
that two regiments of French cavalry,
named Chaffeur and Daqphine, and
a regiment of infantry, have gone over
to the Austrians.
The French carried away all the
bells from Menin, and employed 3000
pioneers in demolilhing the works of
that place.
The emperor has ordered 100,000
fufils, and the necessary ammunition,
tobediftributed amongli thofepeafants
who wish to arm themselves. Lieu
tenant Baron d’Afpre is to command
them.
The Britilh government have, at
the earned solicitations of the emper
or’s minister, appointed a convoy to
the merchant vessels from Flanders,
especially those bound to Spain.

Bermerain, Oftober 30.
The Imperial troops, commanded
by major generals Kray and Otte, this
morning at four o’clock, at tasked the
poll of Marchiennes, occupied by the
enemy, to the number of 4000, and
having all the avenues to it defended,
by 12 pietes of cannon and howitzers,
The enemy fought desperately till
9 o’clock, when they were at last
obliged to yield to the valour of his
Imperial mnjefty’s troops, who en
tered on all iides of Marchiennes.
The dilpolitions were so ably made,
that of 4000 men, not one-escaped.
About 2coo were killed, and the rest,
with the commandant, made pril'on
ers. All the cannon, howitzers, and
ammunition waggons were t'aken.
Our loss is not yet known. We
shall give the details as loon as poflible.
ALLIED ARMIES.
Abfiracl of their proceedings , from the
London Gazette.
On the morning of the 17th Octo
ber, general Wurmfer, being informed
that Kaguena had surrendered to the
advanced corps under general
roes, instantly put the bulk of his army
into motion, and arrived there that
night, a few hours after it had been
evacuated by the French, who had
made so precipitate a retreat as to ne
gled breaking the wooden bridges
which the artillery \Vas to pass. On
the 18th, the French encamped on the
right bank of the Zorn, a small river
which runs through Brumpt, but, on
perceiving feme interval between ge
neral Mazaroe’s advanced corps, con
lifting of about 6000 men, and the
other columns of the army, they cros
sed the river, and attacked him with
their whole force, in the evident ex
pectation of turning his flank, and cut
ting him oft'from the rest of the army.
The action lasted seven hours ; but,
upon perceiving the rest of the AuL
trian army move forward, the French
recrofled the river, and evacuated the
heights and town of Brumpt, of which
the Austrians took poffellion. The
loss on the part of the French is esti
mated at 800 men, and that of the
Austrians to nearly half that number,
in killed and wounded-
The prince of Waldeck has ad
vanced with his corps from Seitz, and
marched along the banks of the Rhine.
—He has compelled the surrender of
Druzenheim, and, after having driven
in the garrison of Fort Louis, with
fome loss, had inverted the place. In
the course of the night, the French
abandoned their former position on
the Zorn, and retired under the can
non of Stralburg. General Wurmfer
is at the distance of nine Englilh miles
from that place.
In addition to the accounts already
published of the forcing the lines of
Weiffembourg and Lauterbourg, it
appears that the Austrian army had
between 7 and 800 men killed and
wounded, and that the loss of the
french amounted to between 3 and
4COO men killed ; from 5 to 600
priloners, and 26 pieces of cannon,
waggons, and horses. The retreat of
rheFrench on this occasion was greatly
favoured by a thick fog.
The French made, upon the 21st
an attack upon the advanced polls of
the camp at Menion, particularly
those of Werwick and Halovin ;
they were every where repulsed,
hut the day following they renewed
the attack with great violence, and
gained poffellion of Werwick.
Menin being by this means exposed,
lieutenant general Erbach, who com
manded there, found it necessary to
retire with his corps upon Courtrai.
This corps was composed of Austrian
and Hanoverian troops. The parti
culars of their loss, is understood to
amount to 300 men, killed and wound
ed.
The French likewise attacked the
troops polled at the camp of Cifoing,
upon the 21st, 22d and 23d, but they
were repulsed each day with loss, hav
ing had, upon the 22d, near 400 men
killed and taken.
The 21 ft they attacked the poll of
major general Kray, at Orchies. No
further particulars are at present
known than that they have been re
pulsed, with the loss of five cannon..
SAVANNAH, January 25.
The brig Sally, of Newport, which
arrived at the Havannah, on the 6th
inst. with one hundred and fifty Haves
