27th Advices of the 19th inst. 
~" have been received from sir 
John Warren; by these it appears 
that opposition had been made by 
the republicans ‘to the landing of 
some ammunition from the British 
ficet, destined for the royalists. 
Charette sent down a detachment 
of 1500 of his men, who defeated 
the republicans, and accomplished 
the object of their enterprize. 
The republicans lost a considerable 
number of men; the royalists 
about 200. This is so far import- 
ant, as it is the first aétive hostile 
operation since the sham treaty 
formed between the commission- 
ers of the convention and Charette.

. Harvey sailed from Spithead 
with five ships of the line, two fri- 
gates, and a sloop, under his com-

on board, bound to the coast of 
Brittany. 
The count d’Artois sailed in the 
above. ; 
The earl of Moira has at

mand of the troops assembled in 
the environs of Southampton. It 
appears, that as it is not intended 
that any British troops should be 
sent to act offensively on the conti- 
nent of France, lord Moira’s com- 
mand was no longer necessary.

soldiers of the 104th, or Royal Man- 
chester Volunteers, and rirth, or 
Birmingham Fencibles, on account 
of a determination to complete 
some regiments by drafts from 
others, But the timely interfe- 
rence of the magistracy, aided by 
the greater part of the military, 
who resisted every attempt to se- 
duce them from their dury, happily 
quelled the tumult, and tranquil- 
lity is perfectly restored in the city. 
Mr. O’Connor and Mr. Griffin, 
two of the friends of the French 
convention in Ireland, were found 
guilty of high treason at Naas, in 
jreland, on Tuesday the first inst. 
and are sentenced to be hanged, 
drawn, and quartered. After Mr. 
O’Connor had received his sentence 
he addressed the court, in a speech 
of considerable length, in which 
he censured the abuses of govern- 
ment. Thirteen apprentices and 
journeymen, of different trades, 
making in the whole thirty, have 
been zpprehended in Dublin, charg. 
ed with having sworn to the De- 
fenders’ oath, and associating and 
conspiring, with several other per- 
sons of a similar description, in 
acts of treason. 
Mr, Hamilton Rowan arrived at 
Philadelphia, from Havre, on the 
17th of July. He hada narrow 
escape; the vessel in which he

was introduced to the officer as a 
Mr. Thompson of South Carolina.
