On Wednefday, the fourth inflant, in the night. Tome hundreds of armed men marched into Thomaf- lown, in the county Kilkenny, in Ireland, wliere they continued drinking in a riotous manner ior fonic hours ; they then proeee'ded to the chappie of that town, .and after firing luvcral lliots at the win dows, they broke in and dimolillicd every thing they could meet with ; in Ihort, they completely gutted the building with crofs-cut faws, &c; which they had brought with lham for the pin pole. Aker this exploit, they paraded the town v ith repeated ac clamations, and Jileharged a volley of fmall aims. Letters from H.imburgh, dateel Oe'loher 3, fay— “ All the letters iVcin Sweden, announce the great ardour exiiling for its ileTence ; 600 volunteers ha' c been armed in the iilarvd of Goihland, 5JC0 in Bothnia, and at Stockholm there ai e 10,000 citizens who have undertaken the defence of that capital.” By the Plandcrs niail, which arrived on Saturd.oy morning, it appears, that the taking of Belgrade has been followed by other conqtiells, infcmuch that one would believe a general panick had Hruck the Ottoman troops. On the 14th of Oftober, at noon, an exprefs ar rived at Vienna from the- prince of JTohenlohe, with ■ an account ofhis having gained a complete viifiory over an army of 10,000 men under Cary MuHapha, who were advancing towards Porefeny to attack him. ' The Prince having received previous notice of his defign, drew uphis army in fuch a difpofuion to wait for him, that they might all ae'l together. The cav.alry attacked the enemy’s cavtilry \viili great in trepidity, andpnrfucd them to Vaydeny ; and their infantry wliicli were attacked Iry the right wing of the Prince’s army, were cut off and purfued to tire mountains. The whole body of them were clifperfcJ, leaving j yoo dead on tire field, among whom it is fai.l is the Pacha. The trnnliics are, five cannon, fifty co lours, a great quantity f arms, and the enemy’s camp, befides all their liniga'/incs of provifn ns :it Vaydeny and 'I'lirgiifchy, and a great luimbcr of cattle ; the plunder was given to tJie foldicry. The Prince of Hohenhihe ha*> received a contuflon in the right knee, but the lofs of the rkuUriar.s is very trifiing. We are inclined to impute this difgrace of the Turks in a great mcafurc to the cliange of their ge nerals, panicutarly the like Grand Vizier, who, du- ring the laft campaign, harralfcd the ImperialiHs after the manner of General Wafliington ; and this war of pofts is mod affuredly the bed method for them to proceed, not only owing to their numbers, hut their want of knowledge in Europetm taiflics, and the peculiar mode they have of fighting. But notwithdanding thefe defeats, there is dill much to he done before a peace can be fettled. The affairs of Prance feem to be advancing to a crifis, which w'ill redore fome kind of efficient go vernment to that kingdom. Tlie martial law, is in certain cafes, the bed, becaufe it is the mod humane mode of redoring order ; and if the militia of Paris can be brought to do their duty as foldicrs, the enor mities of licaiitioufncfs will foon be at an end in that city.
