BOURDEAUX, July 25.
What a fpcftacle our city
prefents, flnre the authorities
have regenerated I exclaims the
eoitor of the Journal of Bour
deaux. Ihe appearance of the
armed force, cannon mourned
at the town all Teems calculated 1
to alarm. Our fellow citizens'
aflame grave countenances, and
courageousrefignation ;by which
may calculate how far free
men will fufFcr the intolerable
yoke of the mofl a rocious def
•potiim. Ihe robbers, amount
ing to about 1352, breathe no
thing but blood and vengeance.
1 he execution of the law is cn
frufled to men accuflomcd to
brave it. Several arbitrary ar
refls have taken place and great
alarm prevails.

Arrived this morning the fhip
Good Friends, rapt. Farle, in
the very ffiort pafTage of 29 days
from Hamburgh. This veil'd

bringsintelhgcnceof Amfterdam
being in pofleffion of the Britifh
troops The Dutch were flock
ingin great numbers to the fland
aid of rhe ftadtholder.-
The p.iflengcr from whom we
have obtained the above, alfo
informs, that 30,000 Ruffians
had arrived at Hamburgh defi
ned to aft againft France. This
is no doubt the Ruffian expedi
tion which failed ftom ETmeur
the 23d of Auguft, and which
was defigned to co-operate with
the Britifh troops in the reduc
tion of Holland* It is more
than probable that this has been
efßfted without the aid of the
former.
r lhe day capt. C. left Cadiz,
the governor of that place, by
requefl of Mr, Yznardi, Ame
rican conful, politely iffued
drift orders to the commanders
; c f French cruizers, not to at
tempt to proceed to fca within
48 hours after his failing. The
conduft of our conful docs ho
! nour to the government which
he fo faithfully represents.
The fleet under lord St. Vin
cent's command is reported to
' 1 ibour under the plague ; all the
cun (I of Haibary arc infcfled
with it-
La Fayette and La Tour
Moubomg have been for fome
time paft in Hamburgh.
Wc have been politely favo
red by capt. Cunningham, of
the fhip Superior, from Cadiz,
with the following information :
Immediately aftergeneral orders
were iffued for all the Spaniffi
officers to remain on board, and
hold themfelves in readinefs for
failing, upwards of 50 officers,
upon this fignal being given,
brew up their commiffions,
which were not, however, ac-"
cepted.
Seven or eight American vef
fels have been captured lately by
the French, and carried to St.
Lucia; the French conful there
is faid to have eolleagued with
them to condemn every thing.
I bis report is corroborated by
their avoiding to bring their pri.
zes into Cadiz, as the French
conful of that place fome time
ago feta fhip at liberty.
The Tea's were put upon all
the public coaches in Cadiz, on
the 20th of Augufl, by an order
of the government, to prevent
the tranlportation of fpecie, and
the better to afceitain the real
amount of every man's property.
1 he fame meaiure took place at
the fame time throughout the
whole kingdom.
