NEW-YORK, Jur.f 19.The Leyden Gazette, tiles of whichhave beenreceived by the Editor, up totfce 17th April, contains very little intelli-gence, except what have been alreadylaid before the public.

The principal weight of evi-dence, hovrevtr, it in favor of the reportmade to the National Convention, byMarec, on the 2d. of April. The Editorof the Leyden Gazette (Stephen Luzac)mentions his having received a letter fromLeghorn, dated March, 10th, which a-grees perfectly with Marec's report ; andwhich he therefore considers as a completeproof of its acauracy.
