LONDON, May 19. The trial of lord Melville concluded on Saturday, .but the proceedings are not to be pub- Fftud until the peers lhall g‘-/e their decision, which it is ex pelled they will do on Wednes day fe’nnight. On Saturday fom? account received frr>m Holland by a vefltrl lent into Yarmouth, by which we learn rhat the camp at Zevft is immediately to re ceive large reinforcements. It is added, that 50,000 Prussians are to join in the mvafion of this country, and are to embark in Dutch ports ■ - May 22. Another important piece of intelligence is dated in letters from Vienna of tne 6rh instant. According to these “ The dis ftrcnccs relative to the mouth of the Cattaro have been amica bly accommodated. The re presentations made at St. Pr terlburgh have produced the es feds w Hied for bv Auftna ami the Ruffian troops are making dispositions tocvacuaie th Cat tarc.” We know nor what de gree of credit is due to this itarement. It is repeated, that such is the tmderftanding between France and Aullria, that an off-nfive and dt fenfive alliance is about to be concluded, and Audria is bound adivtly to def< n 1 Bona parte’s late changes. This may be doubted. NEW-YOKK, July 8. Since our Est publication, we have rrceivrd European in telligence five fhrtii that bv tne Kingston. The (hip Liberty, capt.

The undesigned, his Majes ty’s Principal Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, has receiv ed his Majesty’s commands to acquaint Mr. Monroe, that the King, taking into consideration the new and extraordinary means rdbrted to by the enemy for the purpofc of diftreffmg the commerce of his fuujects ; has thought fit to direct that die necessary meafurcs fliould be taken for the blockade of the coiifls, river?, and ports, from die .river Elbe to the port of ftreft, both indiifivc ; and the laid crafts, rivers, and ports, are & muff be considered as block aded ; but that his M qcftv is pleased to declare, that such blockade shall not exte and to pit vert firutra) fhip> am v< iTels Lden with go ds not be>ng the property of his Majrfty’s ene mies, and not being cunrrabihd t war, from approaching the fa*d coasts, and entering into and failing from the fad fivers and ports, (lave and exi epr the coafls rivers, and ports, from Offend to the river Seine, al ready in a state of ftridl and vigorous bio* kade, and which are to be con fide red as so con tinued) provided the laid frt ps and v'ffls so approaching and enrermg, (except as afortfaid) shall not have hern laden at any port belonging to, or in the poss (Tiun )f, any of his Majeft 1 ’s cnetmes ; and that the laid Ihips ami veflels so sassing from the laid nves and pot s (except as aforefa.d) shall not be destined to any p >rt belonging r ->, or i the p< ffi ftion of any of his Ma jtfty’s euenties, nor have pre v< iifly broken the blockade.

The undersigned rt quells Mr. Monroe to accept the a flu ranees of his. high consideration. (Signee) C. J. FOX. ■...■.1 ..000*— From the ( Pet srjbnrg) Repub lican. The federal party affe&ed to be surprised at the manly and digr. fied departmet of the rc puolicans in the legislature of Massachusetts, in the recent con ceited eledtion for governor of that state. It is the peculiar property of base and corrupt minds to fufpedt the purity and inregnty of every other benign lociety. We need not travel very far back m the hiitory of of our own times, to difeover a clue to this wonder and amaze ment manifefted in the federal tribe. Adting on principles the molt ungenerous and tinhuman ly, in 1 300 we behtld this party with a zeal and perfeveiance, which would have rtfiedled cre dit on a good cause, obstinately fupporcing Mr. Burr as a pre ftdent of the LJniied States, in opposition to that unequivocal expreftion of public will, which pronounced Thomas Jefferfon, to be tbs man of the people. In this ever memorable triumph of truth and realon, over the m fiduous wiles &; diabulical mach inations of fadlion, was laid the foundation of chat suspicion and distrust, which have ft nee char aderifed the federalifts.—Guilty of a breach of every rule tend ing to support political honesty, we have iincc seen these men invariably fufpedling the purity of th? intentions of their oppo- nents ar.d endeavoiii.g thwart every measure recommended for the public good. And- whence has originated this suspicion, a-: criminal as it is ill beral ? in vain we solicit, in ain we brg them to assign rca fons for their conduct. l o what then are we to attribute t .cir prrverfen; F ? Can we for arnomentlupp .fr iheir objt£l •s the public happwefs and pros perity ?We cannot. — The max im lad and wn 11 the preceding paragraph, affords the only de tin a>n of tneir conduct, of which it is tuScepnble. Federal opposition to the will ot the people, has been evinced on a m re recent occafi >n, at tended wiih circurnffances the m"ft odious and debafmg. We allude to their conduct in the le g Ilature of M ffichul’ctrs, when, m order to luve a lieutenant governor of their own kidney they disfrai.chifed bIXIY- T vVO towns, which huo given -t pubfican majorities, thusafor ing another evidence of their pp fition to the public will, and their total dif/egard of the nleans by wmch they accom rddhcd iheir ends. Let us now enquire how the republicans acTed, in their various relations with the federal party. Under the present ad ministration, we behold hun dreds of federal IE enibving the 1 ruics of office, while they are active in traducing the very men, to whom they are partly ; i-ieb ed for their daily bread Federal Its have even been ap pointed to office by Mr ieffer lon, because he conceived them capable ofdifchaiging the duties attached to their appointment, and at the fame time faithful to the constitution. To extend the fubjcfl a little luther, mark the republicans in the preient leg flacure of Massachusetts.—What a farire on federal uprigbtnefs! Well may the faction be confounded at this display of magnanimity. Vv hen it was afeertained that Mr. Strong was the people’s choice, the republicans, taking advantage of their vail maj-ritv, disfranchifed no to vns, robbed the people of no votes, ro secure the eledion of their favciitc candidate ; but with a unanimity, which will re ft-<ff immortal hon or on thr cause, proclaimed Ca leb Strong governor of the state of Massachusetts. Federlifts, re fiefl: on these things—hum blc yourselves in fackdoth and allies —andfin no more. ~ - - N OTIC E. ihofe indebted to the Efface of Thomas Walton, de ceafcd, are hereby notified that unless they make payment very Ihortly, their notes and accounts will be placed in the hands of an Attorney for eoileftion— Those to whom the Effete is indebted, are requdled to pre sent their demands.
