1797.) Public Afairs. ‘American Eaft Indiesi..Funds, a 48 
fubfequent accounts’ from Berlin fays, 
“« chat the Pruffian fyftem with refpeét to 
foreign affairs will probably undergo no 
alteration by the change in the govern- 
ment, as his prefent Majeity, when here- - 
ditary prince, at the latter end of the late 
reign, was informed of all the meafures of . 
government, and had frequent conferences 
with the minifter, Count Haugwitz.” 
The letter which the young King. of 
Prufiia lately fent to the French Direétory, 
gives much countenance to this latter ftate- 
ment. In that letter his Majefty ex- 
preffes the joy he feels at finding upon his 
acceffion to the throne of his anceé(tors, that 
his fubjeéts were at peace and in good 
friendfhip with the French Republic. 
AMERICA. 
Actounts from New York ftate, that 
great part of the American garrifon at 
Niagira has failed for Deétrcits, to reinforce 
the garrifon of the norch-weftern territory 5 
where ferious apprehenfions have been en- 
tertained of their being attacked by the 
Weftern Indians, influenced by the Spa- 
niards and French. Captain Guien, with 
two companies, who had been fent down 
the’ Mifsifippi to occupy the pofts to be 
delivered up by the Spaniards by treaty, 
has neither been allowed to proceed nor 
return; another detachment alfo met with 
the fame fate. The Britith, it is’ added, 
haye apprehenfions of an attempt on Ca- 
nada, by the French and Spaniards, but 
expect a ftrong body of troops from Eng- 
land. 
EAST-INDIES. 
‘The Englith at Calcutta, by the lat in- 
telligence, were greatly alarmed at the 
movements of Seuram Shaw, who was in 
great force, having no lefs than 96,000 
horfe. He had made terrible havoc and 
devaftation in the countries he croffed. 
In the Delhi, his troops put men, women, 
and children, to the fword. The Englith 
army was on its marcli to cover the Be- 
nares. Much apprehenfion was alfo en- 
tertgined from che nabob of Lucknow, 
who had refufed to pay the ufual revenue 
for the fupport. of the Eenglith army, faying 
he has no farther ufe for them. It is ge- 
nérally fufpeéted, that Tippoo Suitan is at 
the bottom of thefe. proceedings.
