LONDON, September 20. By a letter from Lubec, re ceived by the left ijjail, it ap pears, not only that a large Ruf fian force, above 60,000 men, are expected in that neighbor hood, who are to be dViembark ed near Travemundc, but time an English army is expected at the fame time on the banks of the Wefer. Evcry_ effort is making to cfbablifli magazines, &c. previous to their arrival. September 21. It is fated in an Evening Pa per, that as soon as a jun&ion ihall have taken, place between the Ruffian and Austrian armies, a manifefto will be published on the part of the Armed Neutral- > xty, as the alliance between the ! two imperial courts is denomi nated. The following are given as the conditions upon which j Aufaria and Rufiii will conient, and procure the conient of Eng- i land, to a general pacification : ‘! f< France is Cos evacuate all j Italy, Piedmont, Switzerland, & Holland, into which, as well as ’ Germany, no French troops are, upon any pretext, to pene trate. The offenfave and de fend ve treaty between France & Spain, of 1796, is to be dißeiv ed, and the latter kingdom, as well as Portugal, is to have its independence restored. The left bank of the Rhine, and the Alps and Pyrenees are to be the boundaries of the French em pire, which cannot, for the fu ture, be paßed in time of peace without being confiiderecf by the Armed Neutrality as a declara tion of war. The powers form ing the Armed Neutrality, and the future league of pacification, are, be Tides Russia and Aufaria, to con fill of England, Turkey, Denmark, Sweden, Saxony, Na ples, Sardinia, Lombardy, 1- truia, Spain and Portugal.— 1 iedmonc is to be restored to the king of Sardinia ; Lombar dy, with Parma and Piacenza, are to be eroded into an • inde pendent kingdom, in favor of the cider branch of the b o arbor, family. Upon thole conditions PETERSBURG: — (Georgia) —Printed by BURKE & M'DONNELL. all the confederate princes are to acknowledge Bonaparte as Em peror of the French, and Eng land is to reliore Malta to the Order; Russia will evacuate the Seven Elands, and as well as the other States, refped the inde pendence and gaurantee the in tegrity of the Tiirkifli Empire.” Bonaparte ahfolutely refufes to Bavaria, Wurtemburg and ITefTe-Darmfladr, the permifllon to remain neutral. Ile in fids that they fliall be treated by France as enemies, if they re fufe to join him. He has alrea dy put all their arms, artillery, ammunition arid other faores for war, under requisition. The tlettor of He fie Caflel •s supported by Prufaia in his refulal to dismiss Mr. Tavlor fom his court, or to grant the loan of a million sterling which Bonaparte demanded from him. Certain • intelligence has been received, that the French have evacuated Luncburg and Lauen burg, and that the ! eft bank of the Elbe is entirely denuded of French troops. Reports are faill contradidlo ry refpedfing the defamation of the armament now fitting out in the Downs. In sass one of the objedts in fitting it out is, that its real defamation being kept a secret, the enemy may be the more difaradted in fettling the distribution of his forces. The commander has not yet been appointed ; and if we may credit the rumours that arc cir culated, it will be no ealy matter to adjust this point to the fat if fade ion of all parties. We hope that on the present occasion the maxim of the Romans will not be violated —“ Never employ an unfortunate Generah howe ver great his abilities, how deer high his rank .” refpeft ability attaches to minifaers, & wc ardently hope they will nor compromise the fafery of a fine army, the success of rheexpea;- tion and the welfare of the coun try, by liftenmg to claims which ought to be disregarded. Some of the troops that were under orders for embarkation have, i; is reported, been countermand ed. NORFOLK, Oduber 23. On Saturday arrived here the ship Susan and Sarah, Captain Marner, from Bordeaux having, touched at New-port, Cape. M. left all his capers except one, a Bordeaux paper of the ioth September, at New-Port, with that he has favoured us, from which, and the informati on of Capt. Marner, we prelent our readers with the foilewing faimmary : War with Aufaria was no declared when Capt. M. laded, but was deemed inevitable ; a the French armies, were march ing in great force towards tk’ | Aufarian front.ers, and it was Ct/U •i iC IV. i y ‘ U t,.-- ii >.**'-** $ and B CRD A T y November 30, 1305. had occupied Naples. The invasion lo long talked of, has terminated as it com menced, in talk only. The camp at Boulogne was broken op about the lafa of August, & 90,000 men in 3diviiions march ed for the Rhine. On the Isa of September, fix regiments of Chafaeurs and 3 of Hufiars, palled through Lille, and the next day the division under the command of Mare chal Davons compofcd of 20 regiments of infantry, palled through the fame place, and the paper adds, that feafeely a day pa lies without considerable bo dies of troops marching through that place. We notice similar movements in other parts of France. Every thing announ ces the moft adfive preparations', for war on the part of that na tion. Os the preparations on the part of Aufaria and Russia, the paper which we have, lays very little; we notice an article un der the head of Venice,- of the 21 fa of Augufa, in which it is Rated, that the Ruffian fleet at Corfu, had failed to join another fleet having a convoy, from the Black Sei. The fortifications of Venice were going forward wirh the titmofl activity. The combined fleets are fas ted in the Momteur of the 3d of September, to have failed from Ferrol on the 14th of Augufa, and to have arrived at Cadiz on die 22d of the lame month,— But no mention is made of that fleet having failed again, as Ba ted in the London papers re ceived at New-York. Admi red Colifngwood fays the Moni teur, was ar anchor with four ih'ps of the line, on the morn ing that the combined fleet en tered Cadiz. He retired to Gi bialtar, having nearly been cap tured. The foregoing comprises nearly all that we deemed wor thy of notice in the paper which we have received. October 31. Caotain Cox, from Bermuda, gives the following account of lingular address and enterprise. \ government schooner of 14 guns/ completely fitted out and provisioned for a cruise of fix months, was lying in the port of St. George’s. On account of fome circumfaances, it be came neceflary to put the maf ic r of a French privateer and a bout fifteen of ins men on board the schooner; they were’ not confined in irons, and only a corporal’s guard put over them, [’he officers of the schooner were mofaly on shore, and the i.eute ] iiant commanding dsrted on I ihnre. The master of rhe pri vateer took this occasion to 0- ver-power the guard, whom he confined below and then dre fling nimieif in the uniform of the ieutenanr, and ddgmfing ins 1 men, he got the fchoohei u*sd-.o way, p.ill:d the ba:;-..: .t out interruption, and giving < cheers when he turned the point oucofreach of the guns, he pro ceeded on a cruile with a strong er veil’d than he had loft, and one more completely fitted. The situation of the harbor, : on account of the number of ! forts and cannon mounted i‘;i , the different parts of the harbor, and the difficulty cf the navi gation of the channel, in home places not more than two hun dred feet wide, rendered this a hazardous undertaking in the o pen day. The Frenchman owes we understand, his success to the ftrid discipline of the guard having charge of a piece of can non at one of the alarm polls.— One perion only had difeovered the Frenchman in this business, who Went with all speed to the guard and told them the cir cumstance, requt sting them to fire and alarm the forts below ; but this the guard refufed, al ledging that they were ordered never to fire, but by Orders of the commandant—before the commandant could be found the Frenchman was clear of the port AUGUSTA, October 26. The following extract of a letter from a gentleman cf refpcßibU lily, contains Jome jails not g:- ter ally known : “ I can now if ate to you po sitively, that the Fx-Bafhaw in a formal note to Mr. Eaton, has exprefled his acquiescence in the treaty, and in ftreng unequivo cal language has made his acv knowiedgemeuts for the servicer. rendered him by the American government, admitting at the lame time that failing in every thing that was expc&ed on his part after they had reached Derne, he could reasonably and therefore did not expedt a con-* tinuanc of their co-operation— His note concluded with thank ing the Chief of America, and ad his servants for their friend ly aid and intentions. This note was sent to in order to defeat any mlinuations injurious to the honor of the Unifrd States in their relations to the Fx-Bafhaw. “ With refpecl to the ran fom, Mr. Lear held out ten davs 1 and until it was finally believed | that Without the jeo pril'or.ers would not be refcalcd.
