National Gazette

By a courier arrived at Havre de Grace just as an American vessel was about to sail for New-York, and which had but 27 days passage, the intelligence was received that the army of M. de la Fayette had taken the citadel of Namur, after having cannonaded and bombarded it for 48 hours successively, with a formidable train of artillery, and then carried it by assault as soon as the breaches were sufficient to render it practicable. The French killed 3000 men, made 1500 prisoners, and only lost 500 men in the action. After the capture of the citadel, the French entered the town, where the inhabitants were dressed in the national cockade, and where the three coloured flag was unfurled, and ornamented by the cap of liberty. Detachments of M. de la Fayette's army surprized and took Mons and Charleroy, where they made 1750 prisoners.
