Mr. Erikine and Mr. Gibbs manag d the defence of the prifoncr with such . lility, as to draw a compliment from he Chief Jttftice, who indeed during lie whole trial, conduced himfelf with rcat humanity, especially in his charge. The evidence, both written and ver al, in favour of the prisoner, appear d fatisfa£torily to provt, that the Lon -011 Corresponding Society, of which 4r. Hardy was a member, simed on y at a reform in the Commons House if Parliament. The evidence for the >own was obfeure, sometimes contra lictoty, and in few instances the wit effes were evidently perjured. The barge against the prisoner was, aiming t- the overthrow of the government, .arccmpalliirg tfte tJWTTr~ot the king. When the foreman of the Jury deli ered t'/ie verclift—-NOT GUILTY— rlaidy modestly bowed to them, and aid,in a voice scarcely audible—" Fel okv-conntrymcn, I thank you." Too much ptaife cannot be bellowed in the candour and humanity, which he Attorney and Solicitor-General, md the Judges, praflifed during the vhole trial of Haidy.

The Solicitor General repeatedly ■lowed the agitation of a feeling and rielicare mind, whenever in his reply he touched on fueh parts of the evi dence, as his learning and his loyalty iold him pieffed hard on the life of the prisoner ; and at the conclusion of his 1 Idrcfs, on Wednesday, he was over iwered even to tears. In the course his speech he took an opportunity paying a dtferved tribute to the vir es and the memory of the late up i ;ht Mr. Jullice Wilson; some of lose opinions had been eenfured uy 1 e rcforma^oes.

Tel It is supposed to have belonged to a French or Spanish fir ft or second rate man of war, and must have been carri ed away in an engagement, as there are marks of three or four (hot, and W one fir all (hot taken out of it since it was landed. It appears to have been a J a long time in the water, being very £ much worm-eaten, and a great many el barnacles on it. There is every reason to suppose that this top-mast belonged to some of the (hips in the engagement with Admiral Rodney. . From the ap- pearance of it, and from ils magnitude, it very probably belonged to the Ville n ' -Paris* - ■ " • ' ' S 1 UNITED STATES. s NEW-YORK, January la. Captain Harris, of the brig Eagle, on the 6th of October, on his parage from Amsterdam to London, came to anchor ;n a place called the Swain, where lay between 40 and 50 fail of the northern tra ders, waiting for a favorable tide; at r which time a very heavy gale sprung up, * and, out of the above vessels, Capt. Har- j ri« was the only one saved ; the others ha- c ving( some parted their cables and went on ' Ihorc, and others foundered at their an- , chors) been wrecked: the crews thereof < ' 1 nearly all perifeed. Captain Harris, by J parting his cable, made fail, got out clear , of the sands, hove to, and lay till the gale abated, by which means he saved himfelf irom a rate as diltreffing as the others. After the gale, Capt. Harris came into the Swain a second time, when he saw a bout 200 boats, (from Harwich and Mar gate Jemployed in picking up the floating ; ' remains of the wrecked vessels. 1 • . • ' He was informed at Harwich, at which ' place he Sopped, that between that placc j and Margate, about $0 veflcls, chiefly colliers, had been loft in the above gale: ' . the captains and part of the crews of 1 lome of which he saw there. c The American (hip Patuxent Planter, e of Maryland, was loft in the gale ; the * captain and mate of which Capt. Harris ' saw in the Virginia Coffee House, London. e They took passage in a vessel bound to Bal. timore. if* Capt.

NEW YOkK, January 10. By not fuffering the trcaiurcs of Holland to be lauded in England, with out paying the duiits, 1' ngkud has driven them to the ElbJ. At Ham burgh there is more pioperty than can be (loved. The Spanilh Council of Stare have 1 imposed a contribution of seven millions of reals on the Clergy, for the purpose of carrying on the war. The proceedings at Naples against J the conspirators are ended, but not pub lic, at the date of the lall accounts. They are fifty four in number. The French have put a garrison of 300 men in the Gcnoefe Fortress of Vado, and furni(hed it with cannoti. The Genoese flag is hoilled, and the garrison, it is supposed, will be fubjcA to the Genoese Commander cf Sovano, in cafe of an attack by the Auftriaiiß. A new manufactory of hats, laces, silks, &c. is established at Conilance, by Kmc French emigrants from Lyons. Thus much for the Jacobin profenpti ons under Robcfpierre. Every one knows that the expullion of the pro tellants from France, by the revocation of the cdi£l of- Nantz, laid the founda tion of similar manufadures in the Ne therlands, and other parts of Europe. Tyranny, whether of the people or of monarchs, has always the fame effeiS ; it depopulates and desolates the coun try where it is exercised. The fortrefs of Luxemburgh is one of the llrongeft in Europe ; the garri \ son conliUs of ten thousand men : and the inhabitants not disposed to endute a siege, aie permitted to depart. But the French mode of conquering will probably save the trouble of a long ficge—they defeat the covering army 1 and cut off all poflibility of succors— and it is then madness in a garrison to | sustain a bloody siege. The artillery in the English Camp - at Hythe, are exercised three times a I week in firing red-hot {hot and throw ing (hells. The French laid a contribution on Bois-lr-Duc of 7 millions of florins, and put every thing in a (late of fequi fition to supply their troops. At Cologne the contribution demand ed, was 8 millions of livres, which may 1 be paid in aflignats. The return of aflignats in the French Treasury and burnt, amounted Sept. r 30th, to 2367 millions of livres. Sir Barry Denny of Kerry in Ireland, , has fallen in a Duel with John Ciofbie I Esq. ttie dispute, as usual on such occa i fions, originated in some trifle. ! Count de Bernftorff is appointed Miniflcr p'enipotentiary from the court 1 of Denmark to that of Sweden. Mr. Hailes the English minister is become f» 1 unpopular at Copenhagen, that he is to return to England. , It isfaid that the offer of mediation tobiing about a peace between the b «, , lig'jrent powers, male by the courts of Sweden and Denmark, h is been refufed by France. The report is ilated under r the head of Stockholm. Several hundred Emigrants; taken in Bois-le-Duc, were (hot at the head of - the French army. If these men weie ' taken in arms the laws of -war and of nations may juftify this severity : If the c French had remained inactive, in civil e life, and never taken arms again 11 their y country, it would be difficult to find an - apology for such bloody vengeance.
