Moffet, from Surrinam for Norfolk via St. Thomas, the floop Nancy Cox, of Phi- ladelphia, bound to Sr. Thomas ; and others not recollected. They have al- fo taken a brig under Britith colors from Norfolk bound to Martinico. Capt. Moffet reported that a cartel had been granted at Guadaloupe, to carry him and about 40 American pri- Loners to St. Thomas, were they were to be fet at liberty: that on their paf- fing down, they fell in with an Ameri- can cruifing brig, called the Genius, commanded by a capt.

If the men are really affaffinated, it has probably been done by affaffins hired for the purpofe by the Directory, to excite the refent- ment of the nation agamît Auftria. Or the whole may be ftill fineffe, and the Commiffioners may be ftill living Stratagems of thefe kinds are perfectly in the French Republican characters. It is well known the infurrection raifed by the Venetians, in which feveral hun- dred Frenchmen were flain, was infti- gated by the French government on purpofe to gain a pretext deftroy that Sate. The fame game played by that government in Sardinia, Rome, and Switzerland ; and it has been a common practice, when the govern- ment wanted to get rid of an obnoxious perfon to procure a forged paper con- taining evidence againît him, to be be put fecretly into his pocket, or his bureau, and then to arreft and con- demn him on that forgery. This has been feveral times proved before the legiflature. +It is poflible however that the Com- miflioners may have been victims to fome private refentment-but it will be found that the government of Auftria has no concern in the affaflination.- Crimes of this kind are too difhonora- ble and impolitic to be inftigated by that court. +Joseph Perkins, a foldier in the army of the United States was fhot on Wed- nefday morning, 10 o'clock on Gover- nor's Ifland, purfuant to the fentence of a Court-Martial, for Defertion. He was attended by the Rev. Mr. Mafon. Inftances of military execution in this country are rare and this circumftance may have contributed in a confiderable degree to make that impreflion which feemed to be generally felt by the per- fons prefent. Agrecably to general +orders, the foldiers at the garrifon were under arms, and attended the execu- tion. They were addreffed at the par- ticular defire of the unhappy man, by Mr. Mafon, who, in language to which we cannot do juítice, warned them of the evil confequences to which a life of immorality naturally leads, and inftruc- ted them in the duties they owed to their country. The ceremony was conducted throughout in a folemn manner, very well calculated to anfwer by its effects on the fpectators, one of the moft valuable purpofes of public juftice. +nan +Freeport Federal Volunteers.

The offentive effluvia emitted by the elder, will fecure the young tur- nip till the firft rough leaf appears, and on ac- count of the bitter tafte of that leaf, the crop will be but little liable to danger.

The writer of the letter fta- ted, that he was one of the eleven perfons who had combined to let that part of the city on fire, for fake of plunder, warning him. to be on his guard he obferved that he had repented his de- terminati and thought it his duty to give no- tice of the intention of his comrades.

CHARLESTON, (S. C.) Sept. 10. +On Friday night laft, about " o'cock, a dreadful gale of wind came on in this harbor, and continued to blow with the moft extreme violence until Sunday morning, one o'clock the wind was firft at the north eaft, in the courfe of Saturday morning it changed to eatt, and in the afternoon fouth eaft. It is impoffible at this time for us to deferibe accurately the de- firuction caufed by this gale the whole of the wharves from Gadfden's on Cooper river, to the extent of South Bay, have received very confid erable damage, the heads and fides of the moft of them are walked away. Of the veffels in the harbor, but 3 have efcaped without injury, feveral are totally loft, and many more are much damaged. At 7 o'clock on Saturday morning, the period of low water, the tide was as high as it generally is at Ipring tides it appeared, that during the preceding ebb, but little water had left the rivers at 12 o'clock it was from 2 to feet higher than it has been feen for many years, and made complete breach over the wharves and drove many veffels on them where they now lie. On Gadiden's wharf feveri ftores were wathed or blown down and their contents of rice and cotton much damaged, and fome loft. On fouth Bay, the whole the bulwark made again? the water in its ruins, and the houfe of Mr. William Veitch, built on made ground, was wathed down-the new ftreet made to con- tinue Eaft Bay to White Point, is greatly dam- aged, the fea made breaches through it in many places. On blake's wharf, a brick building OC. cupied as a feale and counting houfe heat down the bowfprit the thin ydia. +There is one circumflance which took place during this gale which we think worthy of no- tice. It was high water at the wharves on Sat- urday, at 12 o'clock, foon after the tide began to fall, and at fix o'clock in the evening had fallen about two feet, it was then expected that the next tide would be higher than the former, as the fall had been fo fmall; but initead of raif. ing it continued to fall little the whole time of flood and was not fo high at one o'clock on Son- day morning, the time for high water, as it was the day before at fix o'clock, the time of low water. We fuppofe that this phenomenon was owing to the change of the wind| from the eaft to the fouth-ealt during that period. +A negro man was killed by the fall of Mr. Veitch's chimney in South is the on- ly life loft in this city that we have heard of. Moft of the families refiding on South Bay, left their dwellings in the courfe of Saturday, ex. pecting that the gale continued, it would be unfafe to continue in them. +Many of the coafting craft and wood hoats are driven afhore on the marthes and in the heads of docks, and are much injured. +This gale was more violent, & of much lon gercontinuance, than the one which place in 8783. From the defeription given of the hur. sicane in we believe that to have been the moft dreadful, though it is to be feared that the lofs of property is now much greater than at any former period. +Lift veffels left damaged in the gale.

Sept. 12. On Saturday laft we experienced a fevere Tornado, which for violence and duration, ex- ceeded within the remembrance of the oldeft inhabitants of this place.

E. but abated very little before the night following. The rain defended in torrents, with little intermiffion the chief part of the time. +The tide rofe fuddenly to the height hich- erto unparallelled, covering feveral parts of the Bay in fuch manner as to render it impaffable, unlefs in boats or other vehicles. Several ftores on the wharves, as well as thofe at fome diffance from them, had two and three feet water therein in confequence of which, great quantities of corn, falt, &c. were deftroyed. +The fchooner Perfeverance, from this port for Charlefton, belonging to Thomas Shubrick, Efq. of the latter place, was blown afhore on South the people were faved, but it is feared velfel will be entirely loft. +Two negroes, attempting to crofs Sampit river in a canoe, were overfer, and fortunately faved themfelves by faimming- others in a fimilar attempt, were drowned. +Several merchants and others here, have fuffered very much the injury the planters have fuftained, is incalculable.

Dear General, THE enemy's fleet arrived and took polleffion of Combakee ferry, on the morn- ing of the 25th inft. and the troops under my command took poft on the north fide of the river in the evening of the fame day. No authentic intelligence could be obtained of the force or movements of their troops, till early the next morning, when I received information that they had landed about 300 men at Middleton's farm, on the oppofite fide of the river and that they had divided and cantoned them at two different plan- tations. +A number of milicia having joined a for- mer detachment of light troops on that fide. I thought it a favourable opportunity to ftrike at one of their parties, and according ly detached Major Call with the 3d regi. ment of dragoons, with orders to crofs at the Salt Katchees, join the infantry and at- tack them at day break. Previous to my orders to Major Call, I had directed a work to be thrown up to annoy their fhipping on their return, at Chehaw Neck, about twelve miles from the ferry 1 and Lieut. Col. Laurens arrived in the intermediate time and folicited the direction and com- mand at that poft : a detachment of 50 in- fantry, with fome matroffes& a howitz were ordered down to him in the evening. he enemy, difappointed principally in the ob- ject of their expedition, re embarked their troops about two o'clock this morning, and dropped filently down the river with the tide, undifcovered by our patrols till four o'clock, when the troops were put in moti- on to prevent their landing and support Col. Laurens ; but before my arrival they effect- ed a landing, and brought him to action in the field, in which that brave and gallant officer fell much regretted and lamented. The enemy took poffeffion of the howitz, and I arrived with the cavalry juft in time to cover the retreat of the infantry, who formed immediately within a quarter of a mile of the field of action. Finding the pofition of the enemy very unfavourable to the operations of cavalry, and the infantry being much fatigued, I thought it impro- per to prefs them to action, and they pro- ceeded to their boats, embarked and failed immediately. +Captain Gun, with a party, prefied upon their and retook the artillery horfes, Enclofed is a lift of the killed and wound- ed.

XXX. ] OPEN TO ALL PARTIES-INFLUENCED BY NONE WE AIM ONLY TO BE JUST." No. 153% +Continuation of "An ADDRESS to the As- SEMBLY of Pennsylvania, on the Abo- lition of the BANK of NORTH AMERICA. D O thefe gentlemen fuppofe it will rain mo- ney now, as it did manna of old ? And becaufe they have the fame perverfenefs with the children of Ifrael, do they expect the fame miracles? To experience a want of publick credit is (they fay) terrible, but to deftroy the only means of fupporting publick credit, is (they fay) defirable. Let us appeal to facts. No country on earth enjoys extentive credit which has not a publick Bank. We have our. felves experienced its good effects, when we were in the greateft diftrefs. And fhall we now be told that the Bank muft be deftroyed, and yet publick credit be fupported ? People who fpeak in this way fhew great ignorance, or fomething worfe. They afk how a Bank con- tributes to publick credit ; and (if no reply be made) think they have gained a victory, when they have puzzled an opponent. For the fake of thofe who love truth, and not with any hope of making fuch men fenfible either to fhame or conviction, their queftion fhall be antwered.- The Bank may be likened to that which bears the fame name, a Bank or dam for collecting the waters. After a head is raifed, fome part turns the wheels of the mill, and fome part waters the adjacent grounds. Take the Bank away, and the water will ftill flow, but not with the fame beneficial effect. If revenues were appropriated to the intereft of the publick debt, and other important objects of government fhould any delay take place in collections, a fimilar delay of payment would allo happen. The want of punctuality, would leffen the value of flock.- And, on the other hand, if collections were more rapid than the payments, much money might be taken out of circulation, and lodged in the publick coffers. The confequence would be, either that commerce muft fuffer (as at pre fent) for the want of it, or that the (tate muft procure more money than is neceffary ; which might not be very eafy, if we may judge from paft experience. But with the aid of a Bank, the fame ftream turns the wheel, and fertilizes the ground ; being prudently applied to either pur- pofe as occafion requires. And fo the fame fum of money, will not only fupply the bufinefs of the merchant and of the ftate, but the funds pro- ceeding from trade, and thofe arifing from taxes, will (when thrown into the fame ma(s) mutual- ly aid the operations of each, and jointly fecure the objects of both. Nor is there the leaft danger that foreigners will hold even a great pro- portion of the Bank ftock. Bank ftock will always be moft ufeful for the mercantile man who lives on the fpot. Becaufe he (and he alone) can at once receive the dividend, and when occafion requires have (by loan for a fhort time) the ufe of his money : So that he will naturally outbid the foreigner. And as the object of the foreigner muft be to fecure a certain annual income from his funds,make but the inter- eft of the publick debt as regular and fafe as the Bank dividend(which by means of the Bank is ea- fily done) and the foreigner will as naturally wifh to change Bank ftock, for an amount of funded loan office certificates yielding more annual in- tereft, as the merchant will to change fuch an amount of certificates for Bank ftock. And fo far from any danger to the ftate, by the intereft +of foreigners in their funds, there is a great fe- curity. Every foreign creditor is an advocate for us with his own government, in times of publick calamity, and is induced to lend more, as the means of fecuring what has been already lent ; efpecially if he has been regularly paid the intereft of his capital. +The next objection againft the Bank is, that the payment of the dividend to foreigners will be a drain of fpecie from the country. This has already been anfwered in part ; but farther, a man who has bought a piece of ground, wants to borrow money for the purpote of clearing, fencing, draining and cultivating it. He would not relifh the advice of a neighbour who might tell him not to borrow, left the payment of in- tereft fhould drain him of cafh. He might in- deed be glad to get the money at a low intereft, or for no intereft, but he would certainly get it if he could ; and by induftrious attention, and a prudent application of it, he would pay both principal and intereft from the profits of bis farm. And thus by degrees a wildernefs is converted into beautiful cultivation. From a difcovery of America to the prefent hour, we have been pay. ing intereft for what we owe on the other fide of the Atlantick: Our debt and our profperity have gone hand in hand. And yet when peo- ple now complain of the difficulty of borrowing money, they muft be told it is for their advan- tage not to obtain the principal, becaufe they will not (in that cafe) be iged to pay the intereft. If a farmer in Pennfylvania has to pay annually five pounds for the ufe of a hundred pounds borrowed, is it of any confequence to him whether the lender lives in Philadelphia, New-York, Bofton, London, or Amfterdam Twenty bufhels of wheat do the bufinefs. And when he has parted with m, whether they are eaten in Philadelphia, or fent to Lifbon, is none of his affair. On the large fcale, indeed, it might be convenient that wealthy men fhould crofs the Atlantick to become citizens of Penn. fylvania ; and to they will, if equal, juft laws, and a mild, firm adminiftration give that fecuri- ty to property without which it is a curfe in- ftead of a bleffing. But if bad laws be made, or the good laws be badly executed, and if fo. lid eftablifhments can be overturned by every capricious breath, the wife and the good will avoid us as they would the peftilence. Then indeed there will be a conftant drain of wealth, for none will leave property in a country where it is inlecure. +But farther, though we admit that borrow. ing does every year carry a fum out of the country for payment of intereft, it will not fol- low that the country is impoverifhed by the amount of that fum. When a farmer wants neceffaries, and has not cafh, he muft either take them on truft, or borrow money on inter- eft. Every body knows that the difference be. tween buying with ready money, and buying on credit, is much greater than the intereft on the price of the goods, and therefore it is cheap er for the farmer to borrow, than to run in debt at the flore. Juft fo it is with the coun- try. Moft of the articles we want (when pur- chafed at the firft hand) muft be immediately paid for; and when merchants abroad lay out their cafh to buy goods, and after fell them to us on credit, we pay (in the price of fuch goods) not only an intereft on the purchafe money, +but for the trouble foreign merchants take, and the rifque they run. To all this is added a handfome commiffion, and then a round profit into the bargain. Thus, for inftance, fi ce it has been the practice to buy tea with cafh at the first hand, we get that article for nearly 0 e half of what it ufed to coft. Let any man therefore calculate the difference between paying fitty pounds per annum inftead of a hundred, in price, and fix per cent. (or even ten per cent.) per annum For intereft on the fi ty, and he will be convinced that we are recompericed five fold for the dividend paid abroad. On the whole, the matter ftands thus. The whofe bufinefs it is, and who muft for that reafon be the beft judge, tells you that the advance of money by foreigners for Bank ftock, and the facility which the Bank can thereby g to commercial operations, enable him to carry on bufinefs more advantageoufly though he fells imported commodities lower, and buys produce higher than before the war. The farmer (who perhaps neither comprehends nor cares for the reafons on which this affertion may be found- ed) prudently brings it to the teft of experience: The tree (fays he) is known by its truits. Let me examine the facts. He does fo, and finds that moft of the articles imported can be pur- chafed for much lefs than formerly, and that he can get halfas much again for his wheat. So that duties properly laid on articles, the confumption of which is chiefly unneceffary, and fometimes pernicious, would pay the intera eft of the publick debts and not coft the con- fumer more than before the war. Thus, wich. out impofing new burthens, full relief may be given to the publick creditors, and they be thereby enabled more cheerfully and more ea. fily to fuftain their fhare and fuch burthens as circumftances may hereafter require. All which advantages we mult (it feems) torego, and pre- clude ourfelves from the poffibility of eftablish- ing publick credit, left foreigners fhould derive an intereft on lending us money. Overruin the Bank fays they and perhaps you may get a little of their money. Kill the goofe that lays golden eggs and you may wear her Ita- thers. +Sixthly, it has been faid that the Bank faci- litates the exportation of fpecie. Of all the charges in the world, this is the laft which one would have expected. The operations of the Bank depend (as every body knows) on the quantity of (pecie in their vaults. When that is gone, the Bank is done, juft as the mill ftands ftill when the pond is dry. And therefore to fuppofe the directors would facilitate the ex- portation of coin, is the moft abfurd of all fup pofitions. Truth is, the directors of the Bank are extremely folicitous to prevent the export- ation of coin, and happily for the ftate, have the means in their power. The Bank capital is about a million of dollars, part of which is in their vaults, and the remainder lent for fhort periods. The amount of their loans is fup< pofed to be twice as much as their capital. A part of the fum lent is in Bank notes, the re. mainder in coin, Now therefore when the di- rectors find that cafh is exported (which they do at once, by perceiving that any lerab fum goes out of the Bank in a week more than is received) they are not merely led by in li. nation, but driven by neceffity, to leften or to diff --git a/textract_ocr/11901_layout_extracted.txt b/textract_ocr/11901_layout_extracted.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..7cfa44e979aba33ebcf06360ee61e12edf38c6e3 --- /dev/null +++ b/textract_ocr/11901_layout_extracted.txt @@ -0,0 +1,26 @@ +nan +THE [Volume xxxv-Numb. 1772.

ON AGRICULTURE. B EING on a journey fome time ago I put up at a very decent inn, and was not difpleafed to find my landlord difpofed to entertain me with his con- verfation He feemed to be of a cheer- ful temper, and faw things on the bright fide. After touching upon pol- itics, which, next to the weather, is the firft topic to fcrape acquaintance +with, he exprefied his fatisfaction that hufbandry was beginning to profper. It was a fhame, he faid, that freehold- ers fhould be fo little ambitious to fhew by the fkillful management of their land, that it was their own. But he was happy to find, that at laft the fpi- rit of inprovement had reached them— they were getting into the practice of tilling no more land, than they were able to manure to well as to obtain ve ry great crops. This method was found to caufe a confiderable faving of labor, as well as a great increafe of grain. He faid that the moft thrifty farmers in the village and neighbourhood, had a- greed to meet at ftated times, under the name of The Farmer's Club", and to communicate fuch ufeful obferva- tions as had occurred to them. Some of the club were directed to procure feeds, by way of change, from diftant parts ; others agreed, from time to time, to make experiments, and to communicate the refult to the club. One of their number, who was not at the laft meeting, had fent his obferva- tions in a letter. My landlord finding that I was pleafed with the letter, di- rected his fon to make me a copy of if you think it will be ufeful, you may publish it. +GENTLEMIN, +BEING lame, 1 cannot, as ufual, attend your meeting but I fend you in writing, fome obfervations, which I intended to have communicated in per- fon. +Doubtlefs it was decreed that we fhould get our living by hard work. We have no caufe to complain of our lot in this regard It brings with it many bleffings and fhields us from ma. ny evils. The fcholar fits pale at his books, and even white bread turns four on his ftomach the Eaft wind makes him fhiver, and the fultry South wind deprives him of ftrength and fpirits. We, on the contrary, fwing the feythe, without faints in the dog days and in the winter, the management of the axe keeps us warm, though up to the knees in fnow. But though it is or- dained that we fhould work hard for our living, I cannot believe that we are to work hard and not getit. Yet how many get but half a living, and go be- hind hand notwithftanding. What is the caufe ? Is it not the low Rate of the noble art of hufbandry ? To all that is poffible to be done to improve ir, will require great eftates, great fkill and a very long courfe of time, to ef- tablifh new methods of practice. But fome improvements are obvious, with- in the reach of every one, even the pooreft farmer, and if practifed, would enable the pooreft farmer to pay his taxes and to live comfortably. +We find that the produce of land is greater or lefs in proportion to the ma- nure that is laid on it Indeed, new lands for feveral years, and intervals near rivers, will do without ; but what I have remarked is true of almoft all the old lands. If we could find means to increafe manure, it would be better to do it than to buy more land foran acre well manured, will yield as much as two without manure-the crop is got for half the money and in cafe of cold wet fprings, or dry fummers, it is not to likely to be cut off. All this you well know. +But perhaps you do not all know, be- caule vou have not tried the means of increafing manure by compoft. I have tried it, and with you to follow my ex- ample. +Adjoining the ftye where your fwine are fhut op, which fhould be dry and warm, fence a yard for them to wallow in ; twenty or thirty feet fquare will +be large enough for half a dozen hogs ; cover this in the fall or fpring with mud, or any rich earth or grafs fods common loom fhould not be refufed, if richer earth cannot be procured. The hogs having no rings in their nofes, will render this mud or earth, if not more than two feet deep, an exceeding rich compoft in a year's time. They will keep ftirring and fermenting with their dung and urine, which will be incorporated with the mud, and there- by their whole ftrength will be faved ; for the mud or earth will prevent the virtues of the dung and urine from be- ing wafhed into the ground by the hea- vy rains, or evaporated by the fun and air-it not only faves them, but makes them ftronger, by keeping them in a ftate of conftant fermentation-the fer- mentation will be increafed, and the whole mafs will be improved by mak- ing this yard the receptacle for the weeds of your garden-throw into it your foap fuds, brine, and all the grea- fy flop of the kitchen-you may add potatoe tops, which fhould be careful- ly faved for the purpofe when you ga- ther the potatoes-the ftubborn corn- ftalks, which rot flowly in the yard will foon confume in the hog yard. In- deed any vegetable or animal fubitance may be added, for there is none which will not make manure when rotten. Half a dozen hogs, if confined to a ftye and fuch a yard, will make more than 20 tons of the beft manure in one year. The manure fhould be laid in heaps to mel- low with the frofts of one winter, and it will anfwer to put into the hills of Indian corn as well as horfe-dung. A diligent farmer will be furprifed at the quantity of his manure, and a fkillful one will not be at lofs for me- thods to improve the ftrength of it. It will be his own fault if the compoft is inferior in firength to dung which is unmixed with earth or mud. This compoft will improve by laying in heaps, expofed to the frofts of winter. Spread on grafs land, it makes fine crops— and indeed it anfwers every purpofe of dung. +Our farms will certainly grow worfe, unlefs we try to increafe their fertility by compofts and artificial manure. Inftead of wearing our lands out, and fpoiling the earth we live on, it is time to turn our attention to the important fubject of manure, after the example of England, where hufbandry is greatly encouraged. Myown experience has taught me that we may get better crops, while the fruitfulnefs of our grounds fhall be made to advance from year to year. You fee, gentlemen, that I endeavor to contribute my mite to the benefit of the club. No member wifhes it fuccefs more heartily.

I brought an action to the Court, now fitting, againft Perceval Allen, of Hopkinton, in the county of Wafhington ; and on the back of the writ, beneath the Officer's return, was the following ftatement The Defendant was an old Bachelor until he was 52 years old, and then married, and had eight children by his wife, with whom he lived fixteen years, and then buried her, and has lived a widower 44 years, and is now a healthy, fmart, active man, 112 years old." I believe there can be no doubt of the truth of this flatement for I have been this day talking with one of his fons, who alfo confirms the truth of the above fact. And he himfelf, viz, Thomas Allen, fon of the faid Perceval Allen, is now 58 years old, and begins to talk of courting. Three of his brothers are now living, and none of them have been married.

Annum. +A STATEMENT THE +Caufe of the M'Clary owners, &c. [Continued from our laft.] +further appeared from depolitions of fome of the moft refpectable characters in Mafla- chufetts, that Elifha Doane, Efq. and his fon Mr. Ifaiah-Doane, were always fuppofed to be very friendly to the American revolution and had exerted themfelves to fupport it. Refpecting Mr. Bourne's friendlinefs there was no evidence. Capt. Matthew Wood and Mr. Bourne were offered as witneffes by the claimants, (Mr. Bourne to qualify himfelf hav- ing affigned all his intereft in the goods which heacknowledged to be his, to Mr. Ifaiah Doane) but they were rejected by the court interefted. Upon this evidence the caufe was fubmitted to the jury who found, the libel true and nothing for the claimants." It was therefore determined and adjudged by faid court, that the faid veffel her cargo and appurtenances are forfeited, and deemed lawful prize, and the fame are hereby ordered to be divided and diffributed according to law." +From which fentence and decree of faid court the faid Elifha Doane, Ifaiah Doane and James Shepherd prayed an appeal to the American Congrels, which is refuled them by the court, it contrary to the laws of faid State where- upon the faid claimants by their attorneys as aforefaid, feverally pray an appeal to the next Superior Court of Judicature, for faid county, on all the property by them feverally claimed as aforefaid, which is granted by the court." +The appeal claimed to the American Congrefs by Doanes and Shepherd, was founded on the idea that Congrefs was the fupreme power of the United States had the fole right of peace and war, and in confequence of that, as inci- dent thereto, the right of determining, by them- felves or their courts, in the laft refort, quef- tions of prize or no prize. That previous to any commiffions being granted to privateers, for cruizing againît the Britifh, they, Novem- ber 25th 1775, had recommended to the feveral States, to pals laws, for encouraging the fitting out armed veffels for that purpofe and in their refolves, refpecting this fubject had faid, "That in all cafes, an appeal fhall be allowed to the Congrefs, or fuch perfon or perfons, as they fhall appoint for the trial of appeals." That the commition for this privateer was figned by the Prefident of Congrefs, and bond given by the commander to them. +It was rejected, upon the ground, that the feveral governments of the different American States had, while they were Provinces, been to- tally diffinct and independent of each other. That their oppofition, to the claims of Great- Britain, had been carried on in the fame way. That the powers, of legiflation and enforcing obedience, had refided in the feveral provincial governments. That for their convenience in oppofing Great-Britain, and that it might be done with greater effect, Congrefs had been ap- pointed by the feveral legiflatures to confult upon, and advice meafures, calculated for the general good. But that the power, of com- pliance non-compliance, ftill refted with the feveral flates. That although Congrefs claim- ed the right of appeal, the legiflature of this State had refuled it unlefs in certain cafes and that this was one, in which they had denied it and that Congrefs, with full knowledge of this refufal, had granted a committion to this privateer, to cruize under the laws of the State and that this was a clear waiver of any right, which could be fuppofed to belong to them. But independent of general principles or arguments from fitnefs, the State had exprefs- ly pointed the cafe, in which an appeal fhould be allowed to Congrefs which was only, where a veffel is taken by any armed veffel, fitted out at the charge of the united colonies." In all other cafes an appeal fhall be allowed to the Superior Court of Judicature, which fhall next be held in the county A court therefore, appointed by the State, and act- ing under its laws, could not but refufe any al- lowance of appeal. It was accordingly rejected. An appeal was then claimed to the Superior Court of the State, which was granted, it hav- ing by its laws the final appellate jurifdiction. The appeal was entered at the Superior Court, and in September term 1778, the caufe came to trial. A variety of additional evidence was here introduced, particularly on the part of Doane and Shepherd. It was fworn by a number of perfons, not ad- mitted into the fecrets of Doane's bufinefs, but neighbors or intimate acquaintance that in their opinion, at the time of the commence- ment of the war with Great-Britain, Col. Elifha Doane had a large balance due him, in the hands of Meffrs. Lane Son and Frafer in London. +John Grenough depofed, that he lived with Col. Elitha Doane, when he firût opened a cor- refpondence with the now houfe of Lane Son and Frafer, merchants in London ; which was +about fourteen or fifteen years ago. That he then wrote for Col. Elifha Doane, and affifted him in bufinefs and fo continued for four or five years after during which fpace, he knew, that Meffrs. Lane Son and Frafer were conti- nually in Col. Doane's and in account current, allowed him intereft for large fums of money, which arofe from remittances he made them. Since his engaging in bulinefs, feparate from Col. Doane, and until the year 1775, he has been acquainted in fome meafure, with his correfpondence with Lane Son and Frafer and with the method of his doing bu- finefs with them and was in no doubt, but that annually their debt to Col. Doane increa- fed. That, being in London afterwards in Oc- tober 1775, Mr. Frafer, one of the houfe of Lane told him, that Col. Doane had a ve- ry large intereft in their hands, that he afked Mr. Frafer, if a large quantity of whale-bone, which he underftood, had been fhipped them two or three years before by Col. Doane, was then on hand he told him it was and not fold, as Col. Doane had limited them to certain price. And from the whole of the converfation, he at feve- ral times had with faid Frafer, he concluded, Col. Doane muft have then had at leaft fix or feven thoufand pounds fierling in their hands, before the arrival of the brigantine Lufanna." +David Stoddard Grenough depofed that at the time of the failing of the Lufanna, he lived with faid Doane, and that the faid merchants, Meffrs. Lane Son and Frafer, were indebted to faid Doane, as appeared by the accounts cur- rent fent him from time to time and as faid Doane had fhipped them, confiderable quantities of whale-bone fome fhort time before the non- exportation to Great Britain took place, he had reafon to think, that if faid bone was fold, they were indebted to him a very confiderable fum, much larger than ever before. +It alfo appeared, that except a part of the freight of the Lufanna, on her outward bound voyage, belonging to Melatiah Bourne the whole cargo was put on board her as Doane's, and was on his account. +With refpect to Shearjalhub Bourne, it was depofed by Nathaniel Freeman, Efq. that he believed, the faid Bourne was efteemed by all that knew him, as a friend to the interefts of his country, 'till about a year before he figned the addrefs to Governor Hutchinfon, or a little more and that he, Freeman, knew of no par- ticular conduct of Bourne's that was inimical in the interim, except figning the faid addrefs that on the 27th Sept. 1774, when the courtsof law, in the county of Barnilable were flopped by the people affembled for that purpofe the faid Bourne made and figned a declaration, that as he had figned an addrefs to Governor Hutchin- fon, which had offence to the public; he did freely declare, that he was very forry he had figned it that he was forry foon after he did it and that if it was to do again, he fhould refufe it. dafked forgivenels of the offended public, and defired, that this declaration might be publifhed in the Bofton newfpapers. This recantation was voted by the people affembled, to be fatisfactory, it further appeared, that Bourne had purfued the profeffion of law, had never engaged in the bulinefs of merchandize oftenfibly. And that it was the general opinion, in that quarter of the country, that he failed in the Lufanna for London, to take care of Doane's intereft in England, and of the property freight- ed in the Lafanna, that he was not confidered, as having fled to the enemy for refuge as no attempt was made by committees, or others, to meddle with his eftate, and that in his abfence he was taxed as ufual in Barnftable. +Matthew Wood, commander of the Lufanna among other circumflances, Iwears, that when the was feized at Halifax on her outward bound voyage, fhe was releafed on the condition the faid Bourne fhould take a new regifter at Hali- fax, in his own name, and clear out the brig and cargo there, which he did, calling himfelf of Halifax, and the faid Captain of Halifax. The faid Captain obferves, he would not deliver the old papers to Bourne, as he had nothing to do with the cargo, previous to the vellel's arriving in London until Bourne had given him a full difcharge from all damages. That this was done to cover the property of the vellel aid cargo. It alfo appeared from a variety of depofitions, that about that time, there were a number of initances of American Captains, is the Britith dominions, taking out regiflers in their own name, and calling themifelves of the place, where they obtained their regifer or of fome other place, in the Britifh docinions, not con- cerned in the revolution a/d without fwearing to them. Tho' two Captañs [wore they never knew a regifter taken at without its being [worn to. It was alfo from by fome Captains, that upon their obtaining regifiers as aforefaid, they cleared out for fore other port in poffef- fion of the Britifh, an on their voyage put into a port in poffeffion the Americans: the ob- ject being to returyto America, without danger from Britifh cruiz Capt. Matthew Wood further fwore, the before the brig was adver- tized for freigh** the Mediterranean the faid Bourne told bⁿ, on the Change in London, +that he could have great wages for her, in the tranfport fervice but faid he would fink her, rather than the fhould go. And to equeftion, whether the faid brig was to his (the Captain's) knowledge in the King's fervice, tranfport, he anfwered no. And the Captain further faid, that the whole voyages, and all the bufinefs re- fpecting them, he expected finally to fettle with Doane. And he the property of the vellel was in him the whole of the time. That the cargo, on the voyage from London to Halifax, was not to his knowledge, nor did he fuppole, it was to be delivered to any of the King's army or navy at Halifax, or intended for their ufe. +It was alfo depofed by a number of perfons; that they were at Halifax, fometime during the war, and were well acquainted with Meffrs. Coch- rans to whom a large part of the Lufanna's cargo was configned, in her voyage, in which the was captured. And that they were not at that time, to their knowledge, agent victuallers for the army of the King or his navy, or in any manner concerned in fupplying them but that other perfons, naming them, were-that the Mefirs. Cochrans had always treated the A- merican prifoners with kindnef and that they imported provifions, &c. for Tale to the inhabi- tants. Tho' one Captian who was in Halifax, from December 1776 to June 1777, depofed, that he was well acquainted with Meffrs. Thomas and James Cochran, merchants in Ha- lifax that they fupplied the King's troops with provifions, that they had feveral veffels in the tranfport fervice, fetching coals and provi- fions and that they alfo fupplied the inhabi- tants with provifions. With refpect to Capt. James Shepherd, it appeared, that he failed from America, in 1775, in a Thip belonging to Mr. William Dennie of Bofton, for South Ca- rolina and Ruffia; that on his return, he put into Halifax, when it does not appear, but prior to May 23d, 1776 (Bofton, and all the New England ports being then fhut as Dennie in his depofition expreffes it) that his velfel was there feized, and condemned by the Britifh that he appealed to Great Britain, and went there to profecute his appeal. That he took paffage in the Lufanna, in her voyage from London to Halifax; but was at the time of her departure, unable by ficknefs, to proceed her that the articles fhipped on board her by him, although he did not go himfelf, were fent. And that he appeared to be friendly to the caufe of America. Upon this evidence, with what had been offered to the court below, the caufe was committed to Jury, who gave a verdiot. That they find the facts as fet forth in the libel true, and the goods forfeited to the libellants." The court accordingly rendered judgment, that it is confidered and determined, that the faid bri- gantine Lufanna,with the goods claimed by Eli- tha Doane, Ifaiah Doane and James Shepherd, are forfeited to the libellants and the fame are ordered to be fold, at public vendue, by the fheriff of the county of Rockingham, for their ufe and benefit, and that the proceeds thereof, after deducting the charges of trial, amounting to the fum of and of fale, be paid to John Penhallow and Jacob Treadwell, agents for the owners of faid armed veffel, and to George Wentworth agent for the captors, to be by faid agents, paid and diftributed, accord- ing to the law of this State in that cafe made and provided." +It may be neceffary to obferve, that a part of the cargo being configned to different perfons at Halifax, and not claimed at the lower court, was there condemned. And no appeal being taken therefrom, its decifion refpecting it was final. +After judgment was rendered the Superior Court, an appeal was again claimed by Doanes and Shepherd, to the American Congrefs, upon the fame ground as below and rejected. As by the law of the State, the Superior Court had the final appellate jurifdiction, in all mari- time caufes, except in one inftance. +It will here readily occur, that the Judges of the Superior Court, conftituted by the laws of the State, under oath bound to adhere to them, whatever their views of the fitnefs or propriety of Congrefs, or a court conftituted by them, being the final judges in prize caufes might be, could but refule the appeal claimed by Meffrs. Doanes and Shepherd, as the law of the State was clear, that no appeal fhould be granted. The confequences to the individuals concerned on either fide, could not enter into their judgment whether it foreboded ruin or riches to either party, the law of the State had confined them and they could not without breach of their oaths fuffer the appeal. +On the 9th October 1778, Elifha Doane prefented a petition to Congrels, " praying that he might be allowed an appeal to Congrefs which was referred to the committee on appeals, who by the refolve appointing them a flanding committee, were to hear and determine upon appeals, brought againft fentences paffed on libels, in the courts of admiralty in the refpec- tive States, agroeable to the refolve of Con- grefs." +ties to appear before them, they appeared and the counfel for the owners of the M'Clary put in plea to their jurifdiction, which was argued by the counfel and on 26th June 1779, this plea was overruled. The court giving their opinion, that by the refolutions of Con- grels, of the 25th November 1775, which have fince been explained and confirmed, by certain other refolutions of the 6th of March laft, they have jurifdiction of this caufe but as the law of New-Hampfhire militates with faid refolves, and thofe laft mentioned have been tranfmitted to faid State the court declines any further proceedings in the premifes, until they are ad- vifed, of the refult of the deliberations of faid State refpecting the refolves aforefaid." +committee iffued a notice for the par- +In January 1780, the committee or commif fioners of appeals were difcharged and court of appeals in cafes of capture was eftablifhed, who, by their commition, were to hear, try and determine all appeals from the courts of admiralty in the States refpectively, in cafes of capture, which now are, or hereafter may be duly entered and made in any of the faid States." And, on the 24th May 1780, Con+ grefs refolved, that all matters refpecting ap- peals, in cafes of capture, now depending be. fore Congrefs, or the commiffioners of appeals, confifing of members of Congrefs, be referred to the newly erected court of appeals, to be there adjudged and determined according to law and that all papers touching appeals, in cafes of capture, lodged in the office of the Se. cretary of Congrefs, be delivered to and lodged with the regifter of the court of appeals" this caufe was accordingly brought forward in the court of appeals, and without giving new notice to the parties, in September 1783 was tried. It having refted, from the time of the decifion of the committee of appeals in 1779, that they had jurifdiction, to that time. The M'Clary owners did not know of its being intended for trial, until it was too late for them to appear, with inftructions to their counfel. Their counfel however, who had been employed be- fore the committee of appeals, again pleaded to the jurifdiction, or infifted again upon the plea, which had originally been given in before the committee and with the fame fuccefs. As this new court of appeals determined they had jurifdiction, and proceeded to the trial of the merits and did finally adjudge and decree ; that the fentences decrees paffed by the In- ferior and Superior Courts of Judicature of New-Hampfhire, fo far as the fame refpected Elifha Doane, Ifaiah Doane and James Shep- herd, fhould be revoked, reverfed and annulled and that the property fpecified in their claims fhould be reffored. +Thus exifted two contradictory final decrees refpecting the fame fubject. The decree of the Superior Court of New-Hampfhire, final by their laws, that the M'Clary owners fhould re- tain the property of the Lufanna, and the part of the cargo claimed by Doanes and Shepherd. And the decree of the court of appeals, final by the refolves of Congrefs, that it fhould be reftored. And the queftion now almoft re- duced folely to this which jurifdiction, in the various chances of revolution of government and conffitution, fhould prevail over the other ? New-Hampfhire laws had guaranteed it to the owners of the M'Clary. Congreffional determi- nations, or rather their courts, had endeavoured to nullify this guarantee. It was conflict, dreadful to the individuals, who had to bear the expenditures, neceffary to alcertain whe ther the federal government, or the ftate gov- ernments fhould finally prevail. And poffibly, in this ftrange changing ftate of things, of which we fee fuch ftrong inftances in the old world ftate jurifdiction may in a fhorter term than from 1783 to 1795 be again placed upon a footing, which cannot be altered, without a re- volution of a fimilar courfe of years. +Immediately upon the determination of the court of appeals, the owners of the M'Clary prefented memorial to the legiflature of New- Hampfhire flating the circumflance, that their laws were adjudged and decreed to be of no force, by a court erected by Congrefs. The legiflature in confequence refolved, that a me- morial and remonttrance fhould be prefented to Congrefs on this fubject. In this remon- ftrance they fay that the proceedings and de- cree of the court of appeals, againft the memo- rialifts, is derogatory to the dignity and inde- pendancy of this State. That by the maritime laws of the State, no appeal in this cafe could be allowed to Congrels or court by them appointed, prior to the confederation ; which was ratified long after the definitive fen- tence of our Supreme Judicial Court by which the property claimed was condemned and diftributed that the legiflature were fen- fible, Congrefs in 1775 paffed a refolve, re- commending that appeals in all maritime caufes might finally be made to them, or fuch perfons as Congrefs might appoint for the hearing and decifion thereof; and many States in the Union adopted the meafure recommended.

Extract of a letter from Hackney, England, September 2. In this country the fpirit of refor- mation is fpreading very impetuoully: Nor has Mr. Paine, the au- thor of Common Senfe contributed a fmall portion of fuel to the flame that has been kindled. His anfwer to Mr. Burke is in all hands; it is read, in all circles it makes converts among all parties. Thoufands of copies have been fold in England; and I am affured that in Ire- land and Scotland the printing preffes are too flow in their operations for the avidity of the people. Mr. Burke raved in the Houfe of Commons, and had the mortification to find that both friends and the world are deferting him nor do the King's minifters give any ear to his very open advances of good will and friendfhip. It is remarkable that in his debates he frequently refers to Paine's book, and thereby fhews how much it galls him. But while he is in- dulging his rage, his pride will not allow him to mention the object of it by his name. In fhort his unpitied and difregarded fury is, perhaps, one of the fureit teftimonies of that general revo- lution which is now taking place in the political partialities and opinions of the public."

The example of North-Carolina fhould be allowed Jome weight The confidence that Jome amendments will be made, has guided them in twice calling a convention. truft that the difcuffion of the amendments will be liberally managed, and fuch as are proper will be inferted. A motion for the purpose has been made, and it was urged that was proper to delay the conhderation for fome time, in order that the States which have been moft ITatisfied might be represented. Rhode- Ifland was particularly alluded to, and it was faid to be impracticable for the members of your State to be chofen and fent in a [hort time. The motion contains bill of and many explanations which cannot fail to fatisfy any reafonable man. Accordingly the bufinefs was allow- ed to Subfide. You may be affured, however, that it will be fumed as loon as the government is organized, the revenue billin operation, and the great departments arranged. At prejent, the Houfe is too clofely occupied with those objects to attend to any other. It will not be evaded or delayed a moment, and my fincere belief that the amendments will prevail.

HOEVER might be the author of the re- mark contained in my motto, he certain- ly did not mean it as a compliment upon human nature. Some of the afperity, which the obfer- vation difcovers, will be taken off, when we re- flect that men, who write fatires, draw too lively an image of the bad qualities of others and thofe, who beftow panegyricks, give too favorable a co- loring to good qualities. Both may be carried to extremes, though neither originated in falfhood. It is no proof that fatirical writings contain more truth than panegyrical, merely becaufe the for- mer excite more forcible impreflions than the latter, The fact is, we are more ftrongly affect- ed with the failings, than with the virtues ofone another. If in company I draw a favorable cha- racter of my neighbor, my companions attend lefs eagerly to what fay, than when I prefentito their view an odious character. But this does not prove that I do not fpeak, with an equal degree of truth, in both inftances. It only fhews that there is a predifpofition in men to attend more critically to the bad, than to the good qualifica- tions, that are made the fubject of converfation. +The enemies of a man are more active and vi- gilant in expofing his bad actions, than his friends are, in difplaying the meritorious points of his character. This however is no proof that his friends depart from the truth, any more than his enemies. Men more readily make a common caufe offpying out and reprobating the vices or defects of others, than they do, in fearching for and proclaiming their virtues and excellencies. A vicious action roufes fome of the moft energet- ic paffions of the foul. It produces in the mind more ferment and agitation than can be excited by any exhibition of virtuous deeds. +The truth contained in fatire is generally more obvious, and more readily acknowledged, than in encomiums. Men, who draw upon themfelves the pen of the fatirift, often have other enemies to encounter befides the writer for a fatirical attack upon a man is of itfelf a circumftantial evi- dence, that his conduct deferves reproach. An innocent, virtuous man will commonly be fhield- edby his innocence and virtue. He will not be dangeroufly expofed to the fhafts of flander while his character is really unimpeachable. This man may, for a long time, pollefs excellent qua- lities without their ever being a fubject of fpecial commendation. But let him once depart from a fair, virtuous line of conduct, and I cannot war- rant he will long be exempt from reproof and in- vective. We cannot however infer, that praife would not have been equally juft, while he yet was a good man, as blame is, after he becomes a bad one. In fhort, though it is a plaufible theory, that there is, generally fpeaking, more truth in fatire than in panegyrick, it will neverthelefs not appear fo, upon a ftrict examination. It ison- ly true, that blame and reproach meet with a more ready reception, and affimilate better with the ufual feelings of people, than praife and applaufe. As it has been before hinted, men will more eagerly hunt down their enemies, than raife up their friends. The emotions of jealoufy, envy, and hatred are pungent and irritating, and pro- duce a ftronger controlover the mind, than the operations of friendfhipand humanity, which are ufually tranquil and inefficacious. The unfriend- ly paffions have, in the natural conftitution of things, a very fudden and ftimulating influence over human actions. If the propriety of pane- gyric, beftowed on my friend, is called in quef- tion, I fhall, no doubt, be difpofed to vindicate his character; but it may ftill be impoffible to con- vince ill-natured, envious he is bound to pay any regard, either to the panegyrick it- felf, or to my comments upon Whenmy enemy meets with reproach, I fhall fearce have occafion to bring arguments to condemn him. Mankind eafily believe the report of his unworthy actions, becaufe they are predifpofed to believe it. He probably is, in fact, a bad man, or he probably had not been my enemy. I cannot however imagine that panegyrick has generally lefs truth than fatire, merely becaufe the latter meets with more attention and credit than the former. +ANECDOTE. +PORTSMOUTH, OCTOBER 31, 1789 IMPROMPTU on the approach of THE PRESI DENT of the United States. +MR.

WASHINGTON. SALEM, OCTOBER 29, 789. Newburyport, Nov. 4, 1789. Soon after The Prefident's arrival in this town, he wasprefented with the following addrefs. To The PRESIDENT of the UNITED ST ATES. SIR, WHEN, by the unanimous fuffrages of your countrymen, you were called to prefide over their public councils, the citizens of the town of Newburyport participated in the general joy, that arofe from anticipating an adminiftration, conducted by the man, to whofe wifdom and va- lor they owed their liberties. Pleafing were their reflections, that he, who, by the bleffing of Heaven, had given them their Independence, would again relinquifh the felici- ties of domeftic retirement, to teach them its juft value. +From your own induftry and enterprize you have every thing to hope that deferving and good citizens can expect. +They have feen you, victorious, leave the field, followed with the applaufes of a grateful coun- try-and they now fee you entwining the Olive with the Laurel, and, in peace, giving fecurity and happinefs to a people, whom in war, you co- vered with glory. +At the prefent moment,the indulge themfelves in fentiments of joy, refulting from a principle, perhaps lefs elevated, but, exceedingly dear to their hearts, from a gratification of their affection, in beholding perfonally among them, the friend, the benefactor, and the father of their country. +They cannot hope, Sir, to exhibit any peculiar marks of attachment to your perfon ; for, could they exprefs their feelings of the moft ardent and fincere gratitude, they would only repeat the fentiments, which are deeply imprefied upon the hearts of all their fellow-citizens but, in juftice to themfelves, they begleave to affure you, that, in no part of the United States, are thofe fenti- ments of gratitudend affection more cordial and animated, than in the town, which, at this time, is honored with your prefence. +Long, Sir, may you continue the ornament and fupport of thefe States, and may the period be late, when you fhall be called to receive a reward, adequate to your virtues, which it is not in the power of your country to beftow. To the foregoing Addrefs, the Prefident was pleafed to reply as follows: To the Citizens of the Town of Newburyport. GENTLEMEN, +HE demonítrations of refpect and affection which you are pleafed to pay to an indivi- dual, whofe higheft pretenfion is to rank as your fellow-citizen, are of a nature too diftinguifhed not to claim the warmeft return that gratitude can make. +My endeavors to be ufeful to my country have been no more than the refult of confcious duty. Regards, like yours, would reward fervices of the higheft eftimation and facrifice Yet, it is due to my feelings, that I fhould tell you thofe regards are received with efteem, and replied to with fin- cerity. +In vifiting the town of Newburyport, I have 0- beyed a favorite inclination, and I am much gra- tified by the indulgence.

A Ruffian officer was taken prifoner at Hogsfors, to whom his Swedifh Majefty wifhed to give his parole and he was defirous at the fame time of fhewing fome civility to the Prince Labanoff, Col. of the regiment, to which the captive belonged, he ordered Baron Klingfporre, his aid-de-camp general, to write a polite letter to the Prince, and fend back the officer on his parole. This was, done on the 20th of July. A trumpet, accom- panied by a Swedifh officer, conducted the Ruffian prifoner. Arrived at the advanced pofts of the enemy, the trumpet founded, and they hailed ; but the only anfwer they received was, the double difcharge of arquebulles from the Coffacs and Chaffeurs, and notwithftanding a fecond found- ing of the trumpet, the fignal of truce, the firing was continued. The officers and the trumpet were obliged to retire and return. The King was ftill at Hogsfors, to whom they gave an account of the reception of his trumpet. His Majefty, fuppofing that fo ftrange a conduct could be owing only to the ufual licentioufnefs of the barbarous and undifciplined hords who compofe the light troops of the Ruffian army, and that even their own officers could not reftrain them, ordered Baron de Klingfporr, to write a letter to the Prince de Naffau, who commanded the Ruffian fquadron, then ftationed off Frede- rickfham, to inform him of what had happened, and to fend his letter to Prince Labanoff through that chanel perfuaded that with an officer like the Prince de Naffau, he had no reafon to fear the violation of the laws of war.

But he apprehended that ftitution did not, by the words expreffed, place any debts allud- ed to in a fituation different from that in which they were previ- ous to its adoption. Great ftrefs, faid he, had been 1 id upon the practice of other nations. It had been frequently afferted, that the meafure pro- poled was without a precedent in any country it had been re- peatedly recommended to us to imitate the Britifh parliament as to meafures touching public credit. +We however find, faid he, a caufe was cited yeflerday, by an honorable member from Virginia (Mr. Madifon) in which they made a provifion as to debtors, fimilar to the one now undercon- fideration. If precedent is therefore to influence, we have one from the nation whofe public faith isextolled. But it had been ob. ferved by an honorable member from New York (Mr. Lawrance) that the precedent then cited was not applicable, becaufe, faid the gentleman, the Britifh parliament and Congrefs are bodies very different as to power the former is omnipotent and unlimited as objects of legiflation the latter is not fo, but reftricted and confined by the conftitution which controuls their power That the Britifh parliament can therefore do many acts confiftent with their powers, which Congrefs cannot This obfervation, faid Mr. Seney, does by no means diminifh the force of the precedent becaufe, although Congrefs poffefs not power as to all objects of legiflation fo extenfive as the Britifh parliament, yet, as to objects within their power, they were as much omnipotent as that parlia- ment It not, he conceived, be denied, but that a provifion refpecting public credit was one of thofe objects; with regard, therefore, to the fubject under debate, there can be no difference between the two bodies as to omnipotence. +It had been remarked, he faid, by another member from New- York (Mr. Benfon) that the adoption of the amendment would be improper, becaufe it was unfolicited by thofe whom it was de- figned to benefit; and becaufe there was reafon to believe it would meet with difappiobation. +The gentleman, he faid, hadinformedus of a refolve of the Cin- cinnati of this State difavowingt plan, and cited their proceed- ings as evidence to prove this difapprobation. In reply to this, he would not then enquire how proper it would be for the commit- tee, in their decifion, to be influenced by any act of the Cincin- nati, or other fociety but believed, if the hiftory of the proceed- ing alluded to was fully known,nothing could be inferred from it to effect that gentleman's purpofe. That he had, fince the pub- lication of their refolve, been informed, that the meeting of the fociety, at the time it paffed, was not a full one that fuch a re- folve was unexpected by many until propofed, and that it paffed without debate, and, as it were, fub filentio that he had fince been informed that feveral of the body fapproved of the refolve, and believed that if a full meeting was had, a different determi- nation wonld be the refult. He had conceived that the worthy members compofing that body had too much experience of their own fufferings to be oppofed to a proviiion in favor of thofe cre- ditors for whom the compenfation was intended, and could not think that fuch a provifion would bedifapproved of by a fociety of the kind in any of the States. +It had, upon this occafion, been afferted, faid he, that public opinion fhould have little influence on the conduct of legiflatures. But, notwithltanding the plaufible reafoning he had heard upon that head, he was fatisfied regard was due and muft be had to the opinions of the people, and to their feelings. Government, he faid, was formed for their benefit under the prefentconftituti- on, all the powers of it flow from them as the fource they have the means of carrying into execution their will and under thofe circumftances he could not believe the legiflature ought to be in- different as to their fentiments. +Gentlemen, he faid, had founded their oppofition to the amend- ment principally upon the rigid rules ftrictly adhered to in the courts of common law rules which had often been the means of ftifling juftice, to correct the rigour of which legiflatures had often interpofed. Such rules could not be proper fetters for the fu- preme power of government. The hiftory of nations proves that legiflatures are fuperior to them their objects are extentive and in all extraordinary cafes they will make fuch provifions as may be requifite to effect general juftice and equity. The cafe under confideration was certainly one of an extraordinary kind. He could not think that thofe, whofe exertions had refcued them and us from defpotifm and flavery, were ever honeftly paid thofe hard-earned claims they were fo juftly entitled to ; and could not but believe, that as long as thofe claims exifted, there wonld exift a ftigma on the juftice, humanity, and gratitude of this country. Mr. Livermore faid he was againft any difcrimination between the foldier, or other public creditor, who held a public fecurity, and the (peculator who had purchafed one. He faid the fecurities were made payable to the bearer, and confequently transferable, with intent that they might be fold, if convenience or neceffity fhould require it. This had been well underfood by all parties, as well in America as in foreign countries, and fecurities had been fold accordingly. The advocates for difcrimination have not de- nied this they have only alledged that the low rate at which the poor foldier, or other public creditor, had fold their fecurities, was a fufficient reafon for Congrefs to interfere and fet afide the fale. In oppofition to this, Mr. Livermore obferved, that per- fons had a right to buy and fell at fuch prices as they could mutual- ly agree upon, provided there was no fraud. +A diamond, horfe, or a lot of ground, might be fold too cheap or too dear, and to might any other property but govern- ment could not interfere without deflroying the general lyftem of law and juftice. Efau had fold his birth-right for a mefs of pot- tage, and heaven and earth had confirmed the fale. The diftreffes of the army, both officers and foldiers. at the time they received and fold their fecurities, had been painted in too ftrong a light. They were not fo emaciated, by ficknefs or famine, as had been reprefented. They were crowned with victory and received with applaufe by their fellow-citizens ; and although they had been paid in'paper,their lofs had beenmade up by large bounties and III other emoluments, fo that, in point of property, they were equal to their fellow-citizens, that had borne the burden of taxes, under which many were laboring to this day Let them be called foldiers, or foldiers, but not POOR foldiers. They ought to be governed by the fame fyftem of juítice that go- verns others; but their contracts ought not to be fet afide out of partiality to them. He faid the cafe quoted from the ftatute of Queen Ann, was not applicable to this cafe, inafmuch as govern- ment had not iginally made the debentures therein mentioned transferable. Neither, he faid, did the cafe of the Canada bills apply; far, as he underftood, thofe bills were paid to Britigh merchants, or others, who had purchafed them. Mr. Livermore concluded, by faying that he fhould vote a- gainft the amendment, becaufe no fufficient reafon had been af- figned that could operate in his mind againft the general fyftem of right.

The Secretary of the Treafury refpectfully reports, THAT in opinion, the fundsin the firft inftance requifite to- wards the payment of intereft on the debts of the individual according to the modifications propofed by him in his report of the ninth of January paft, may be obtained from the following ob- jects +An increafe of the general product of the duties on goods im- ported, by abolifhing the difcount of ten per cent. allowed by the fifth fection of the Act for laying duty on goods, wares, and mer- chandize, imported into the United States, in refpect to goods im- ported in American bottoms, and adding ten per cent. to the rates fpecified, in refpect to goods imported in foreign bottoms, with certain exceptions and qualifications This change, without im- pairing the commercial policy of the regulation, or making an in- convenient addition to the general rates of the duties, will occafion an augmentation of the revenue little fhort of two hundred thou- fand dollars. +An additional duty on imported fugars. Sugars are an object of general confumption and yet conftitute a fmall proportion of the expence of families. A moderate addition to the prefent rates would not be felt. From the bulkinefs of the article too, fuch an addition may be made with due regard to the fafety of collection. The quantity of brown and other inferior kinds of fugar import- ed, appears to exceed twenty-two millions of pounds, which at a half cent per pound, would produce one hundred and ten thou- fand dollars. Proportional impofitions on foreign refined fugar, and proper diawbacks on exportation, ought of courfe to indem- nify the manufacturers of this article among ourfelves. Molaffes, being in fome of the States a fubititute for fugar, a fmall addition to the duty on that article, ought to accompany an increafe of the duty on fugar. This, however ought to be re- gulated with proper attention to the circumitance, that the fame article will contribute largely in the fhape of diftilled fpirits. Half a cent per gallon on molaffes, would vield an annual fum of thirty thoufand dollars. Our diftillers of fpirits from this mate- rial, may be compenfated, bya proportional extenfion of the du- ty imported fpirits. +Snuff, and other manufactured tobacco, made within the Uni- ted States Ten cents per pound on the Snuff, and fix cents on other kinds of manufactured tobacco, would be likely to produce annually, from ninety to one hundred thouland dollars. From as good evidence as the nature of the cafe will admit, the quan- tity of thefe articles manufactured in the United States, may be computed to exceed a milion and a half of pounds. The impo- fition of this duty would require an increafe of the duty on im- portation, and drawback on exportation, in favor of the manu- facture. This being an abfolute fuperfluity, is the faireft object of revenue that can be imagined, and may be fo regulated, as in no degree, to injury either the growth, or manufacture of the com- modity +Pepper, pimento, fpices in general, and various other kinds of groceries.

A debate, or rather converfation on the fubject of a reform in the Britifh reprefentation took place in the Houfe of Commons this day. Mr. Grey in troduced the bufinefs in the courfe of his obfervations he reminded Mr. Pitt of his former declarations onthis point, and confidered him as pledg ed to give areform his fupport. The example of a neighboring king- dom, whatever it may fuggeft to o- ther gentlemen, only tended to con- firm him in the opinion, that the de. fects of a conftitution fhould always be reformed before they amounted TO a caufe for the conffitution being fub- verted. He gave notice, that he fhould, at an early period of the en- fuing felfion, fubmit a motion for a Parliamentary Reform, and hoped gentlemen would not, in the inter- val, omit turning their moit ferious +when he found himfelf happy, he fhould take meafures to render that happinefs as fecure and durable as may be He objected to the time and manner of bringing forward the bu finets. +thoughts to fo interelling a fubject. Mr. Pirt acknowledged that his opinion was changed-at the time he mentioned a reform, the American war raged, Parliament and the peo- ple then appeared to be oppofed, to reftore union and harmony at that time, he propofed the meature but fuch were the refources to be found in the conffitution, that the fituation of the country was now changed from indigence and diftrefs, to affluence and comfort The greateft potfible good therefore which the allotment of man was capable of receiving, could amount to no more than that +As to the time there were the moft ferious objections, when mifchievous politicians were fetting opinions afloat which muft in their nature be fubver- five of all order and government- when the avowed partizans of this meafure were perfons who acknow ledged themfelves to be the enemies of monarchy-the afferters of our having no conftitution whatever-the baters of ariftocracy-the enemies of religion, and men who were inflexi- bly averfe to all fubordination and diffinction of ranks whatever. +The manner of bringing it forward he hought highly reprehentible; where members, withdrawing them- felves from that duty and refponfi- bility which their Itations impofed upon them, fought feditious allocia- tions, deferted the regular Parlia- mentary line of conduct, and put their names in the public newfpapers to refolutions framed in dangerous and irregular meetings. +Mr. Fox faid he held the fame 0- pinion now with refpect to a Parlia mentary reform which he had con- ftantly and uniformly maintained. He contended that there never was a time more proper for a reform than than the prefent, when we were pro foundly at peace, and when the dif- 01 ders of a neigbouring country gave us, however necedary to themfelves, an awful example of the effects of anarchy and convultion. He did not with to be mifunderftood on his point, for whatever may be the prefent dif- trefs of by applying to abítract principles, they had in the end produced no government (which was by no means his opinion) yet the ancient defpotifm was fo detettable, that it ought certainly to be removed, whatever facrifice it may occafion. France, however, furnifhed no fubject for the imitation of this country. It was the great excellence and glory of our conffitution, that it was always fubject to reform, and fufceptible of improvement, and in the advance ments which reafon and philofophy were making in the progrefs of hu man fcience, renovation and amend- ment muft be applied with greater effect. In France, no repair was fuf- ficient the whole fabric muß be de- ftroyed. But of our there is not a part which has not more than once been reformed.- The preroga- tives of the crown, and the privileges of both boufes of the flature, had undergone various modifications, as circumftances required them, from time to time. +Mr. Burke maintained, that there was not in this country any fociety or body of men who were openly af- fociated for the avowed purpofe of fupporting the caufe of defpotifm but that there were focieties for the fupport and promotion of anarchy, and the extinction of our prefent con- ititution, was known to every one, and even fanctioned by known and refpectable (being cal led upon to name)*he mentioned, amongh others, Mr. Walker, of Man- chefter, who was forward in circula- ting Paine's book, containing the moit grofs as well as abfurd libels on the conflitution. Whether the man in queftion was an American or not he could not appeared to him in the light of an amphibious kind of an animal, neither quite French, En- glifh, nor Irith, but running about with alertnefs to fee what mifchief may poffibly be done in any. His plans had to far fucceeded, that a con- federacy was formed between the difaffected here and the Jacobin Club in France, that race of Regicides and Monfters, whom it was impoflible to think of without horror, To fhew the fort of men with which this con- federacy was formed, he gave a cu rious defeription of the prefent Na- tional Allembly of France. Out of 700 men, 500 were attornies, and 0- thers low practitioners in the law. The greatelt part of the remainder confitted of fhop-boys, journeymen, and adventurers.

From the turbulent difpofition of the times, he thought this an impro- per moment to agitate fuch queltions. If the prefent queftion came in the thape of direct propofition, he would for one oppofe it but coming as it did in an indefinite fhape, which gave encouragement to the views of he boldeft and moft profligate adven- thrers, he could not let it pafs with- sur receiving from him the moft fe rious difapprobation. +Mr. Fox recapitulated fome argu ments in which he had been mifun derflood. With regardto Mr. Paine's writings, he again alledgedthat they were libels againft the conftitution. Mr. Burke agreed with Mr. Fox, whom he termed his Hon. friend The writings in queftion were libels, but not fcandalons for any man, provided he were amenable to the laws of the country, might declare his fentiments of the conttitution. Mr. Erfkine praifing the hiftory of the conftitution, faid that as a law yer, and as a man, he was bound to maintain soriginal principles. Ad dreffing himfelf to Mr. Pitt, he affirm- ed, that the people of this country were not adequately reprefented in Parliament and challenged him to vote a refolution to that effect. If the conftitution had remained unim paired, there would have been a fpee- dy endto the American troubles. Has not Mr. Pitt receded from his former principles ? He laid the foundation, they added only a brick or two form a fuperftructure. When bad men confpire againft the interells of the community, good men mult affociate. his was the chief reafon for union which now attracted their attention. Am I to fuppofe (fays he) that men will confent to lop off the rotten bo roughs, when they have received them as an inheritance Am I to fup pole that certain gentlemen will re. Tapfe into the mais of people ? Could Mr. Pitt State the particular fervices which all thofe that had been advan- ced to the peerage had performed ? As they had all borough influence, it could not be expected that they would confent to relinquifh their power. After feveral other members had fpoken pro and con, the lubject fub fided at that time. +ADVERTISEMENTS The advertifements inferted in our public prints give a kind of local hif tory of the manners of the age, and, in fome trifting respects, this differs from any which preceded it.

It produces fine oak, hickory, cedar, mulberry trees, &c. fome dying roots and medici nal plants;- and excellent wild grapes, and the year 1769, one hundred and ten hogfheads of firong wine, were made by the French lettlers, from thefe grapes. A large quantity of fugar is allo annually made from the juice of the maple tree and as the mulberry trees are large and nu- merous, I prefume the making of filk will employ the attention and induftry of the fettlers, when the country is more fully inhabited than it is at prefent, and efpecially as the winters are much more mode- rate and favourable for the breed of filk worms, than they are in many of the fea coaft provinces. Indigo may likewife be fuc efsfully cultivated-- (but not more than two cuttings in a year) wheat, peas, and Indian corn thrive well, as does every fort of grain and pulfe, that is produced in any of the old colonies. Great quantities of tobacco are alfo yearly raifed by the inhabitants of the Illinois, both for their own confumption and that of the Indians but little has hitherto been exported to Europe. Hemp grows fpontaneoufly, and is of a good texture; its common height is 10 feet, and its thicknefs three inches (the latter reckoned within about foot of the root) and with little labour, any quantity may be cultivated. Flax feed has bither- to been only raifed in fmall quantities. There has however been enough produced to fhew, that it may be fown to the greateft advantage. Apples, pears, peaches, and all other European fruits fuc- ceed admirably. Iron, copper, and lead mines, as alfo falt fprings, have been difcovered in dif- ferent parts of this territory.

It is fuggefted that this refolution originates from reflections on the misfortunes which were experinced by the late Head of the Church, from the degraded condition of the Pontifical power, as well as the withes of Pius the feventh. to abftract his mind wholly from the pur- fuits of wordly dominion, as inconfillent with the new fituation in which he is pla ced to confine himfelf exclufively to the duties of his facred function, and to form thofe fubjected to him to the cultivation of religion and virtue. After making thef remarks, the letter goes on to hipe doubt whether the defign will be carried into ef- fect, and adverts to fome diffic ulties, both in the means of fecuring, after fuch a ftep, the independence of the Pope, or the tran- quility of the States transferred to anothe Matter. +PARIS, June 17.

In the after- noon of the fame day, having taken a walk in the gardens of the palace, he met the emperor.

CLONMELL, June 12. +It is with infinite concern we learn, that the lower orders of the people in this and the neighbouring counties, are ftill carry- ing on the wicked work of burning houfes, ferving notices on the induftrious farmers to quit their habitatiens, Scc. an inflance of which happened on the lands of Ballin- dony, a few nights ago, where thefe delud- ed people fet fire to two houfes, which were confumed to alhes and on Thurfday night lait, another houfe was fet on fire and burned to the ground, on the lands of Chancellerftown, near this town. In con- fequence of thofe outrages and notices, many farmers been refidents for a number of years back, have quitted their liabitations, and are now feeking fhelter in this and other adjacent towns, from the violence of thefe nocturnal depredations. On Sunday night laft, the houfe of Jofeph Brown, farmer of Coogy, near Bilboa, county of Limerick, was attacked by a gang of robbers, who, after a long refiftance broke into it, beat himfelf and wife, de- Aroyed his furnicure, and carried away out of a box, which they broke outfide of the door, four promiffory notes amounting to about 281. +On the night of Sunday, the 26th ult. about twelve o'clock, the houfe of Patrick Wade, of Kilmutry, within three miles of Dungarven, an honeft, refpectable farmer, was forcibly entered into by an armed ban- ditti, one of whom had his face blackened, who fired a fhot or thots, and proceeded to the apartment of Patrick Wade-fruck him with a fword on the head, dragged him from his bed to the kitchen, where he was placed upon his knees, and after de- manding his money, (which they got to the amount of 4001. in fpecie and bank notes) they inhumanly fired a gun at him loaded with flugs, which killed him on the fpot. Not content with fuch favage cruelty, they fired a fecond fhot through his head. They then proceeded to the apartment where his two fons lay, whom they together, and difcharged a mufket at them, which killed his fon Patrick the other they cut and wounded feverely in the head, but upon being defired by one of the banditti to fpare his life, they fired a fecond fhot at Patrick. The caufe affigned for this inhu- man murder was, that Patrick Wade, fenior, had taken a farm in the neighbour- hood, After perpetrating this horrid deed, they took three horfes from the ftable, which were, on the following inorning, found inhumanly piked to death, at a con- fiderable diftance from the houfe. +Nail Manufactory, A LL kinds of Cut Nails for Sale by Whole- fale and Retail at the Factory on F Street, and at the Hardware Store of the Subferiber, where perfons building and all others wifhing to purchafe may be fupplied with any quantity at the moft reafonable rates.

There is good reason to believe, from recent advices from England, that the orders are there rather popular. Experience only will remove this delusion. The In- dia planters, the enemies of Ameri- can institutions, and the merchants generally jealous of mercial rivalry, are probably prepar- ed to make great sacrifices they will consent to abandon their for- lorne hope, and to retrace the rash steps they have induced their govern- ment to take.

At no period of our existence have such numerous and united efforts made and all that have been made on liberal scale have been crowned with success. In the New England states, thou- sands of respectable manufactories are in active operation.

The ship captain Dolan, arrived at on the in days from Cork. She there on the 17th of May, and brings pa- pers to the 14th, containing London dates to the days later than any European intelligence heretofore received. They give us the opportu- nity of announcing to the readers of the Mercantile Advertiser the arrival in England of the ship OSAGE, with the American messengers (Messrs. Nourse Lewis) on board. Mr. Lyman, the American consul at London, has notifiedthe merchants, that the English government had es- tablished most rigorous blockade of the port Copenhagen, and all the island of Zéaland. A fleet of four sail of the line had sailed from the Downs, supposed to blockade some port on the Dutch coast. Swedes were sustaining impor- tant defeats.-Our latent accounts re- present them as having established their head quarters at a small town most at the extremity of the Gulphof Bothnia. The Russians, with the exception of Sweaborg have over- run Finland, along the coast of the Guiph of Bothnia, almost to the from* tiers of Swedish Lapland, the most important places in Finland being tuated on the Gulph. The island of Gothland, from its commanding situation, usually called the Eye of the Baltic, reported to have been taken possession. by tachment of ten thousand French and Russians. A Russian Ukase is said to have been issued, prohibiting all inter- course and all coup- tries not in her alliance, The received by the above arrival, are repleta with to what may be the disposition the French emperor towards the United States.

These have examined and them still more pointed than the historical particularly the reso lutions of the House Commons, which are highly worthy of imita tion: they are contained in a very large book, and therefore bringing it to the Senate. The case was, the resident the court of don, Count de Palm, was instructed by government to present to his majesty strong and pointed memorial against certain expressions or intimations in the king's speech to Parliament, which were suggestedby the imperial cous to be founded and false, as they probably were, &c. Scc. and to publish the memorial for the informa- of the How, sir, did the British government and nation and repel this insuit Sir, it with universal detestation, and repelled with universal indigna- tion. It nushed for the moment the spirit of party. It deemed an in sult to every man, woman and child Britain, &c. &c. But, sir, give you the account in the words of the historian. +With the memorial also was transmitted from Vienna a letter from the chancellor count Zanzendorf to count Palm, expressly commanding him, in the name of his imprerial ma jesty, after presenting the memorial to he king Great Britain, to pub- lish it together with the letter annex- ed, for the information of the nation. The chancellor Zinzendorf, affirms in this letter that it is easy to see that the speech was made for no other purpose but to ex hort the nation to a rupture and open war with the emperor and Spain, and to make the Parliament approve the precipitate and burthensome measures which the government has taken for private ends top well known. hat on the first report of supposi- tious, the emperor and the king of Spain in order to silence them, pro posed a formal act de non offendendo, into which all the contracting parties of the treaties of Vienna and miglit/enter, till such time as definitive agreement might have tak en place but that this propositio: was rejected. that the article of the quadruple alliance are express ly and publicly laid down as the alterable basis of the treaty of Vien+ na, and that to affirm that by a se cret pact concluded at the same time, engagements have been entered into by their imperial and Catholic ma- jesties, repugnant to the same, is an outrageous insult to the majesty of two contracting powers, who have +right to demand a reparation pro- portioned to the enormity of the af- front. And that the high contracting parties had no other view than that of making peace between themselves without injuring any one else." The l'egations contained in this letter and memorial seem but too well fou ded but the intemperate language of hose papers gave high and just offence and Mr. Shippen, Mr. Hungerford, Sir William Wyndham, and all the lead- opposition in Parliament, warm ly concurred in the address sented to the throne on this occasion, and which passed the house without dissentient vote. And an order was sent to M. de Palm, signifying that the said Palm having delivered into the hands of his majesty at his late audience, a memorial highly injuri- ous to the honor and dignity of his crown and having also publicly dis persed the same with a letter from the count de Zinzendorf to him the said Palm, still more insolent than the memorial, his majesty looked on him no longeras public minister and required him forthwith to depart out of his kingdom' +Here, sir, the imperial re- sident, the count de Palm, immedi ately ordered out of the country, and the nation rising into instant war to repel the insult & retrieve the wound honor of the nation.

James Madison, Albert Gallatin and Levi Lincoln, the then Secretary of State, the Secretary of the Treasury and the Attorney general. These persons had so far respected the right of the claim- ants and the interest of the United States as connected with it, as to re. commend compromise tleman from Georgia had spoken of things of his own knowledge, and not of things which depended upon proof of which different opinions might be formed by different persons, Mr. D. said he should place implicit confi- dence in his opinion. But when doubts did exist in relation to the jus- tice of the claim, when respectable board of commissioners had reported in its favor, were the House ready to say that this petition should be driven from them as infamous Were they at liberty thus to refuse it reference or reject it upon the denunciation of the delegation of any state, however respectable the state delegation Mr. Dana said he did not feel dispos- ed to do so, and had rather that the petition should take the usual course. Mr. Stanford said that the report the commissioners alluded to the gentleman last up, had declared that in justice no claim could be set by the petitioners; but it ed compromise on the ground of policy. He hoped the House would not agree to refer this petition, when they had peremptorily rejected a bill from the Senate, heretofore, going to carry into effect their prayer. He called for the Yeas and Nays on the question of reference. +Mr. Troup said he was aware how improper it on the question of re. ference to enter into consideration of the merits of the claim.

He not inclined to say much corrups tion in obtaining the act of Georgia of 1795 cession of forty millions of acres, but he was generally indisposed to do any thing in favor of the petitioners, because he the grant had originated in fraud, and that fraud attached to it through all its various ramifications. +Mr. Bacon remarked that It was true that the articles of cession prov- ided that after the of one cession of any part of the land should be made by the United States. In 1803, however, within a year after that time, an act had been passed regulating grants of land south of the State in which so much of five millions of acres may be прсез- sary to satisfy claims against the land is reserved for that purpose.

With respect to the mode of re- ference Mr. B. said it was true that the itioners asserteda to land, but they expressed desire for a come promise in any way. It was not for land that they specifically asked, but for such compensation as Congress should think fit to give them.

(Patrist.) +LAW REPORT. +Burke V. Rogers. +This cafe was conducted by Mr. Gibbs and Mr. Scarlet on the part of the plain- tiff, and Mr. Erfkine for the defendant. It was an action brought on a policy of infurance from Lifbon to Falmouth, on the Ship Capley, valued at 12001; on a cargo of falt valued at 4001 and alfo on freight at 400'. The learned counfel faid Mr. Burke had brought this action not only to recover a juft demand, but to repel a moft injurious attack at had been made on his charac- ter. It had been reported that be had procured thofe who were on board the fhip 0 call her away on purpofe that they iad run her on the rocks for the expreis surpofe of deftroying the fhip and cargo, that he might come upon the und rwriters, +If any fuch attack was made, he fhould not be forry that it would give him an oppor- tonity of repelling it. This faip failed with her cargo, and when the got over the Bar the met with exceeding bad weather, and an heavy fea, was obliged to return, and was catt on a rock, where the remain. ed for twenty minutes, and received fuch confiderable damage, that it was found ne- ceffary to unload her cargo of falt; and if the thip had been repaired there, they moft have warehoufed the cargo, which would have coft more than the value of the falt. It would have required two months to have repaired the flip, In this fituation of things, the plaintiff abandoned to the unders as his lordthip would in- form them he had a right to do, and went in this action for a total lofs. +The lacts of this opening were proved by feveral witneffes. When they proved the plaintiff's abandonment to the under. writers, alfo read the anfwer to Meffrs. Crowther and Levie, the folicitors for the underwriters. It was to this effect: that the underwriters did not fee the propriety of the plaintiff's abandoning where fo in. confiderable a lofs been fuftained that the plaintiff fhould proceed to repair the fhip; and that the underwriters would ul- timately pay any lofs or demand that could be fairly brought againft them." Mr. Erfkine, for the underwriters, in the coufe of his very eloquent fpeech ob. ferved, this was a point of infinite mo- ment to the unwriting world. He fub- mitted this could never be a cafe of the abandonment, after what had already ap- peared in the caufe, The thip might have been repaired for between three and four hundred pounds, and there was only a lofs of 3 per cent. on the cargo and if the fhip had been repaired, and brought home, the cargo and the freight would have been faved to his clients and if there had been a fmall deficiency of freight, on account of part of the falt being diffolved, the un- derwriters on the freight would have made up that lofs. As to the report that was circulated againft Mr. Borke's cha. racter, he did not believe there was the leaft foundation for it and therefore he might make himfelf perfectly eafy on that head. +The plaintiff in fuch cafe as this, had no right to abandon as for a total lefs without the confent of the underwriters. Without that confent the affured had no right to abandon, when the adventure was not loft, when the veffel had been but one day out of port, when, in the fpace of forty days the was capable of be. ing repaired at a moderate expence, and could be rendered capable of performing her voyage. +Lord Ellenborough fummed up the evi. dence, as it appplied diffinctly to the thip, the cargo, and the freight, which his lordfhip obferved might be confidered as three diffinct policies of infurance. His lord/hip, in delivering his opinion to the jury, evidently inclined to confider thi as an average, and not as a total lofs.- However, he left the whole cafe to the jury. He faid they might find a total lofs 28 to one of thefe three things, and an average as to another. +From a London paper of March 6. - GENERAL METEOROLOGICAL STATE- MENT.

But little does Almeria know, At ease on silken couch reclined, What numbers dread the falling snow, And shrink from the loud ho wling wind; Or sure, most sure, she would not say, That pleasure crowns the wintry day. Yet Winter the' decript and old, As we by Poets have been told, A train of pleasures ever brings, Where Fortune shews her gilded wings. 'Tis not her gay, her fav'rite race, Who fear surly, wither'd face ; Ah no possess'd of ample store, Engag'd in mirth's delightful sound, They do not hear the north wind roar, They do not hear the hail rebound ; Immerg'd in scenes, in visions gay, They do not feel the Wintry Day. Yet some exist with soul benign, Whose feet are trac'd to mis'ry's haunt, Led on by Charity divine, Nor winds, nor drifting snows can daunt Possess'd of homes, and chariots warm, Yet dread the iude, impetuous storm Nor will they with Almeria say, That pleasure crowns the Wintry Day. For well they know, the piercing wind, Which all in vain, may seek to find, An entrance in the thick wall'd dome, Goes thro' and thro' the poor man's home. Fain would they feed the tribe at large, Fain would they clothe want the pow's; Yet mindful of the heavenly charge, They cheer the wretch's wintry hour; Not that it may be known by man, But him who all our actions scan Who sees the heart, and knows the views, Which feeb e man this' life pursues. Accept my purse, Adolphus said, And buy yon food, and raiment warm, And it there's wanting ought beside, To screen against the Wintry storm Your needs proclaim-t pow'r who gave, Made not my heart base lucre's slave. E'en now, methinks, the voice is heard, Altho' the vision's disappear'd, The form has join'd its kindred clay, Unindfol of the Wintry Day. +ADAM LYNN, +CONGRESS OF THE UNITED STATES. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVE +- Wednesday December 7. Debate on the Amendment to the Constitution. +- +Mr. J. Randolph called-for the order of the day on the amendment to the consi- tution, receivd from the Senate. Mr. Huger moved to postpone the order of the day-he observed that he had very seldom, since he bad the honor of a seat in the House, originated business. It was contrary to his habits to obtrude himself aponthe house. And he would not now undertake the task of originating business but from a strong impulse of duty. He was against altering the constitution but as it was probable that an alteration would be made, he considered it his duty to render it as little prejudicial as possible. This the believed, would be the case, if the resolution he had laid on the table for di- viding the United States into electoral districts was incorporated into the resolu- tion from the Senate. He found that this resolution had been proposed not only by the legislature of New York, but likewise by the legislature South Carolina. It had also been submitted in a former Congress by a respectable member from a respectable state, (Mr. Nicholas,) Mr. Huger said that this could not be considered as a party question, as it was probable the federal party would loose political strength by its adoption. It was probable the members on that side would oppose that amendment. His principal hope of success was from the aid ofthose who generally differed from him inpolitical sentiment Mr. H. conclud- by moying a postponement of the order +House +of the day till to-morrow, to enable him in the mean time to submit the resolution for electorial districts. +Mr. G. Griswold, agreed with the gen- tleman from South Carolina, that it was important that both amendments should go to the same committee. He was in favor of the amendment for districts, not, howe- ver, because he considered himself bound by the instructions of the legislature of N. ork, given long since. On a former OC- casion, when the subject was before the House, some of his colleagues had thought themselves bound by those instructions, & had expressed their astonishment at his res- sistin, them. He was not disposed to ques- tion the correctness of their opinions.- But for himself he could never consent to be bound by such instructions against the dictates of his own judgment. He was not the representative of a legislature, but of a section of the people, and did not re- present the state, but them combined with other sections of the people. He had a right then to exercise his own opinion. It so however, happened, that this.resolution for electoral districts accorded with his own opinion, and therefo he should advocate its adoption. According to the reasoning of gentlemen, this resolution should be con- sidered as the first in rank, as it was first named in the resolutions agreed to by the slature of New York. Will gentlemen who advocate the last (embracing the prin- ciples of designation) reject the first, or neglect to pay it the Isame attention with the first? He should consider the vote against postponement as a virtual vote againg first resolution. Is it not fair and proper that both these points of amend- ment should go to the same committee, as they both relate to the same subject ?--He was in favor of the division of the United States into electoral districts, as it carried to the people directly the election of elec- tors, which is now three degrees removed from the people, whereas by the amend- ment it would be only two degrees. We may be told that the legislature of New- York may, under the constitution, if she pleases,district the state; & we may be ask- ed why she does not ifdestrable. This ques. tion Mr. G.could not undertake to answer. Gentlemen of similar political sentiment with the majority ofthat legislature can best answer it. He could only say that if in the legislature he should be in favor of it. Mr. Griswold concluded by saying he was not in favor of altering the constitution at all, with regard to the election of President, but if it were altered, he was in favor of uniting the amendment for electoral dis- tricts with that on the table. He should +my +the +pare +ced +of +be +to +the +it +of +me +If +C6 +t +di +therefore vote for the postponement. +Mr. Elliot did not rise to reply to the ar- guments of gentlemen, but merely to ex- press his surprise that those who wished no amendment whatever, should thus la- bour to defeat the wishes of the house.- He had expected that one amendment to the constitution would have been sufficient for a session. Yet we had sent one to the Senate, where it reposed, and in return they had sent us three. If these are not e- nough, where are we to stop? He hoped gentlemen would not add another until these should be acted on. +but I must confess this looks too much an intention to embarrass and procrastize the passage of the other amendment mit of doubt. +ger +Mr. Rodney only rose to say that he was in favor of dividing the United States into districts, but was decidedly against an a- mendment to that effect being incorporated with the one on the table, least by grasp- ing much they might lose all. +I am, said Mr. Thomas, decided! gainst considering this proposition at th time, let us take up the one downfrom the Senate, and when that has been to, as I trust it will be, and sent states for their consideration, Ipledge seif to those gentlemen that I will with them in not only considering, will support the other proposition. Dr. Mitchel faid he felt It incombent on 10 offer a tew remarks on the amend the confitution from the Legiflature New York. It-night feem is if a la ge thate gratitude was due to the gentleman from Carolina (Mr. Huger) for his care for that if his remarks were not coupled with a flection on thofe who repiefen ed it, He concifely Date the bittory of this propolit During the first fellion of the feventh Cougra two proponitions of amendment to the confitm were received from the Legifl ture of N. which the reprefentati of that ltate wese quefted to endeavour to have incorporated to the conftitution. At that time faid Mr. M did myfelf make a motion to bring forward o thefe propofitions, a they were both referred a committee of the whole house. They remi ed in this flate for a confiderable time under confideration of the H lofe. Towards the of the fefli n one of them was adopted by the Houfe, but was loft in the Senate. The other was not acted upon. recollect that I inform ed the Houfe, at that time, that it was not me with to have the first propotition taken up. reafons which then induced me to be againft 18k. ing it up were thofe which will influence the gainft voting for taking it up at this time. Ido confider that, however a flate legiflature may Struct their reprefentatives in Congrefs, they have avight to refufe obedience to their inttractions, I confider it a found doctrine, that in govern. ment like ours the reprefentative has righting act according to the beft-diétates of his great. So judging for felf, I did believe that the time propofition was of fuch a nature as rendered-itin. expedient to make it part of the Conititution. My further reflection finee, that time, and in. with my conflituents make me believe that it 18 inexpedient to bring it forward at this time. +VI +in +sta +gar +hi +Mr. G. Griswold did not perceive how the agreeing to the amendment for electoral districts could embarrass the present a- mendment, as it was in the power of the different state legislatures to agree to a part, if theysaw fit, and not the whole. +Mr. Thomas observed, that in legislat- ing he had been averse to incorpo- rating different subjects in the same bill or resolution; because he thought each dught to stand on its own bottom-he said, the resolution sent from the Senate proposes an important amendment tol our constitu- tion, and the one which his colleague? Mr. G. Griswold) and the gentleman from South-Carolina (Mr. Huger) wishes consi- dered, at the same time, proposes another important amendment. Although he was in favor of both, he considered it highly improper to blend them together, he tho't each ought to stand or fall on its OWN me- rits. My colleague said Mr. T. appears to have a high reverence for the people's opinion, in affecting to support this amend- ment at this moment-but why has he suf- fered this zeal to slumber for this five or six weeks, since which this house passed a resolution similar to the one sent us from the Senate Why did he not call this up before? Why has he suffered this thing to sleep all this time, and at this moment urge its being taken up with such warmth? Iam unwilling, Mr. Speaker, to impute to gen- tlemen improper motives for their conduct, +in case appear breath is vir You dency ferent this frame Hous inten be To Repr been fied used dent Prest belie it sente sider +fer +vIndependent of this confideration I shall be op. pofed to the taking up this propofi at this time on other grounds. There is certainly a much better chance of wifely deciding on amendments fingly than by taking them together. Were friend the propotition would be for confider. ing feparately. Mr. Dana faid he was in favor of the pofi. donement in order to make fome dispofition the motion of his Durh Carolina (Mr. Huger.) He thought there would be an impro. ori making wo-distinet amendmentso the fame fubject at the fame fellion. H was not a friend to hepropofition but wifhed to polipone it to the next fellion, to put it out of the way. The Yeas and DAYS were then taken, at the inflance oil Mr. Huger, on his motion of polt. ponement, and were yeas es 85. The Houfe then went into committee of the whole-Mr. Varnum in the chair-on the amendment from the Senate. Mr. Elliott moved to amend the refolution from the Senate, by ftriking out the following words " And if the Houfs of Reprefen tives thall not choofe Pr fident whenever the right of choice thall devolve upon them, before the fourth day of March next following, then the Vice Prefident that! act as Prefident, as in the cafe of the death or other confitutional disability the Prefident." +11 +When, faid Mr. Elliot, the nal quellion on the amendment to the Confitu ion patied, forme time fince, this lufe, which contemplated the funole principle of diferimination, 1 contented myfelf with giving.a filent vote 37 favor fhould reman filent on this oceation, by intervening citcumflances, been beculiar fituation.

This frequeft was mingled with another, that hould not be tenacious of the form if we could obtain the fubftance. I felt happy on this occa. fion no: to beunder the neceffity of difeaffing the principle, how far a reprefentative is boand by the influections of his conflituents, as I never policifed a fentiment holtile to the principle of diferimination, I do believe that my conflite. eats, of both of the parties which divide A merica are almoft uninimods their approbation of this principle.

We have no doubt, if the northern states continue in the idea of electing Mr. King and Mr. Pinckney, that they will prove successful, and finally triumph over their enemies. +(Vir.

Deplorable and Diftreffing FIRE!! +On Wednesday night, about 11 o'clock, the inhabitants were roused from their beds with the repeated cry of FIRE! which was perceived issuing from the ware house of Mr. Dunlap, on Maxwell's wharf, and which raged and spread with such fu- ry, that the only exertion which could be made by the activity of the citizens to ar- rest its progress, was the blowing up of se- veral houses, or it is probable not a house in the Borough would have escaped des- truction. It has laid waste the most com- mercial part of the town, having totally de- stroyed every building on Campbell's wharf, Maxwell's, Marsden's, Rothery's, Commerce Street, Warren's and Wood- sides wharves, and progressed up the Market Square to the Main Street, and continued its ravages along the Main street to Mr. Whitehead's new buildings, reduc- ing every house in Wide and Little Water Streets. Were it not for the exertions of a few who manfully resisted the flames, and prevented Mr. Taylor's warehouse adjoining Woodside's wharf from taking fire, the whole of the valuable buildings on Town Point must have been laid waste. +Some lives were lost, and many persons badly wounded by the blowing up of the houses. The market house was partly cut down, which prevented a communication of the flames to the north side of the Main street, which luckily escaped. Up- wards of 260 houses are totally destroyed, and the estimate of general loss, is, on a moderate calculation, supposed to exceed ONE LION of dollars. Numbers of light- ers owing to their being overloaded, and the tide being remarkably low, were burnt in the docks. Several vessels at the wharves took fire, and some in this state drifted to Portsmouth, when it communi- cated and destroyed some others-indeed, at one period, itappeared as if Portsmouth was on fire. +rainv night, the property exposed for safe- y in the streets, the cries of those who were seated by their little property shelter- ed only by the canopy of Heaven-the ships on fire drifting in the harbor, toge- ther with the probability of the whole town being destroyed, exhibited altogether to the senses and to the eye, an awful and dreadful picture. Thousands must have been deprived of a resting place, as it was the most populous part of the Borough. What adds to the above melancholy nar- rative, is, that a snow and very severe frost came on before many an unfortunate family could find shelter for their wearied limbs. We are happy to learn, that the Corporation have alloted money for the immediate relief of the needy suferers, who will receive assistance on application at the Office of JOHN NIVISON, Esq. Handbills to this effect appearing in different parts of the town; those happy beings, therefore whom Providence has blessed with afflu- ence, have now a fine opportunity to exhi- bit their benevolence, by adding their libe- rality to that of the Corporate Body; and, we have no doubt, but the same will be cheerfully received at the above office, and with equal satisfaction distributed. +The phabitants of all descriptions, shew- ed great activity but it is to be lamented, that there were so few buckets and axes, and that the engines are not kept in better order, as they were of little or use. +The Herald Office was totally destroyed, but what types could be saved are removed to a wing of the Play-House, from which place the Norfolk Herald" will be pub- lished twice a week unt the derates, and the Editors can get m ore com- fortably situated.

Bayard, all his opinions to the contrary notwithstanding. There are strong hopes that before many years, the Sun of federal- ism will once more illuminate the whole union.

But the candor of the discerning and im. partial will, I pereadily admit, that this necessity is imposed on me, by a publication in Saturday's paper; under the signature of Alexander Mooreze To obviate any unfa- vorable impressions which might be made on the public mind, by the statement, which Mr. Monre, there professes to give, of an affray between himand myself. 1beg lea ve to submit the following, which in every particular, I do most sincerely believe to be just and true. +On Thursday last, while engaged in con- versation Mr. James Wilson's store, I heard the report of a pistol. Having some reason to expecta reencounter between Mr. Moore, and my brother Patrick, I felt some degree of alarm, and hastened to the spot, to know the issue when I reached it, Tound my brother unarmed, and with his front exposed, calling to A. Moore, who was in the act of cocking à pistol " fire sir." Hurried on by the strong impulse of fra- ternal affection, by the anxiety to protect a brother thus defenceless, I leaped upon the back of Mr. Moore, with an intention to prevent his firing. A scuffle immedi- ately ensued, and I struck him, which pro. duced a retort; but whether in the issue of the contest he had, cause to boast, I know not-1 profess no skill in the pugilistic art and but a small portion of that agility," for which Mr. Moore, is renowned. Thave however no doubt Mr. Moore's sincerity when he professes himself sorry for my ex. ertions, which he states consisted in biting and scratching. Those who have since seen him, have perceived that his face bore other testimony, than that of scratches, and I hold mvself justifiable in biting the finger, which would attempt the abominable act of Gouging. +This to the best of my recollection is a full and accurate statement of my share in the transaction of Thursday afternoon. In justice to myself, and not for the gratifica- tion of Mr. Moore, [ declare that I most severely condemn myself for any interfer- ence but in extenuation, I plead the feelings of a brother, and the influence of impressions. I did not know this the pis- tol was fired by my brother, or should not have attempted to denrive Mr. M. of that equal chance, he himself had re- fused. This explanation 01 my conduct, wills Lhope remove from me the blame which is generally attached to jumproper in- terference. It may have been expected by some that I should have challenged Mr. Moore. Being obliged to consider nry- self as the aggressor in having struck the first blow, having obtained an equal shure of the battle. and leaving Mr. M. with the approbious epithets before mentioned at- tached to him by me, I did not feel my- self justified in calling him out, but I con- fess that Ldid not expect that a man of courage would have so tamely submitte to language generally considered, among gen- tlemen, as an insult demanding immediate reparation. There are besides other cir.. cumstances which affix a stigma to Mr. M's character, which, until he removes; he cannot expect that kind of notice from aigentleman. I mean his refusal to meet my brother, under the pretence that his challenge was not delivered by a friend, having previously declared he did not wish Mr. R. to procure a friend, but would fight him without one. +Facob Geiger. +"3" +The public will shortly know from cer- tificates which will be produced to them, that Mr. M's refusal to meet my Brother could proceed from no other cause than want of firmness to encounter the dan- ger. +Tis not in the boldness of conscious in- 54 nocence, but the hardihood of impudence. Mr. M. makes his appeal to the public, as 12 a quiet and inoffensive member of society. 6 Could I have been.certain that the publica- 200 tion would have engaged the attention of those only who know us both, the public had never seen a reply to t from me. I would have been content to have rested my justification upon our respective characters against the assertions of one, whom the public's most favorable opinion is that, he is a forward and assuming young man, but who I believe tobe, as I have said, and a- gain repeat, Scoundrel, and a Coward. +PUBLIC SALE. +nan +Will be added to to-morrow's Sales +3 Hogfheads Sirup, +2 qr. cafks Port Wine, +I do.

R In addition to these, at the distance of about 120 yards, is an inviting hill Bear eishore.. well calculated for a redoubt, capable of containing about 120 men, from which a battery of 6 guns commands the bay at the full range of fire. lo the reat of these redoubts, at the distance of 600 yards, is ground favorable for ao encampment of 3000 men. Go the eastern shore, the point of Long Island descends gradually to the waters of the narrows-this point projects with a randy flat the water at the distance of 280 vards, covered with from 4 to 6 feet water, and consequently may be wharf d up so as to plant a heavy bittery above high water mark, opposite to the hori. pontal and plueging batteries on the Staten island shore. The distance between these batteries will be less than one mile. In rear of this position is an elevated spot for 2 close redoubt, capable of containing 500 men. Its cannon will afford ample protec- tips 10 the horizontal battery on the pier, and at the same give a plunging fire natie enemy. At from this re. doubt is a spot for a redoub: and battery of field fortification, to contain 120 men, and pieces of artillery. This work affords the double mantage of enfilading the ri. ver through the Narrows, and of covering the right of an excellent encampment or 3000 stee. +To cuf orce more effectually the defence of the passage,it is proposed to station two fioating batteries, armed with heavy guns, marioned on the north side of the op posite zontel batteries, attended by a sufficient number of gun-boats, These may with great facility form a line of fire, occupying the full space from the one shore to the other, and thus effectually strength. the defence of the changel, and be fully protected by the fortifications and batte. ries on the shores. +The Narrows, thus garnished with for. lifications, and garrisoned, and in case of solemn war and actual invasion, supported by additional troops in two advantageous tamps, with the propesed Reating batteries and gun-boats, affords a formidable and emilicient fence for the entrance of the harbor.

The crews had been in the habit of landing be- tween Cape Heary and Willoughby's river and obtaining water and Fresh provisions. A party of militia, horse and infantry had arrived there on the 15th and 16th and would probably be still further reinforced so as to cut them off from those supplies.

In this situation they were assailed by persons, not indeed vested with formal authority, but exhibiting sufficient evidence of the source from whence their powers were derived, who, in direct and explicit terms, demanded money of the United States as the condition which must precede, not only the reconciliation of A. merica with France, but any negotiation of the differences between the two coun tries. +" That 20 advance of money by a neutral to 3 belligerent power would be an obvious departure from neutrality, though an insu perable objection to this demand. did not present the most serious and influential reason for repelling it. Such were the cir. cumstances under which it was made, that it could not be acceded to without a surs reader of the real independence of the U. S. nor without being, in fact, the com mencement of a system, the end of which it was impossible to foresce. +" To the preliminary required by these inofficial agents, therefore, a decided ne- gative was given but they returned to the charge with wonderful perseverance, and used unwearied arts to work upon the fears of the American ministers, for their country & for themselves. The immense power of France was painted in glowing colors the humiliation of the house of Austria was stated, and the conquest of Britain was confidently anticipated. In the friendship of France alone, it was said, could America look for safety ; and the fate of Venice was held up to warn her of the danger which awaited those who in. curred the displeasure of the great repub- lic. The ministers were assured, that if they believed their conduct would be ap- proved in the U. S. they were mistaken. The means which the directory possessed in that country to excite odium against them were great, and would undoubtedly be em. ployed. +This degrading intercourse was at length interrupted by the positive refusal of the envoys to hold any further commu. nication with the persons employed in it. Meanwhile with persevering but unavailing solicitade, they urged the object of their mission. The directory still refused to acknowledge them in their diplomatic cha. racter and the secretary of exterior rela- tions, at unofficial visits which they made him, renewed the demand which his agents bad unsuccessfully pressed. +" Finding the objections to their recep tion in a public character insurmeuntable, the American ministers made a last effort to execute the dusies assigned to them.

The indignation which they excited was warm and exten. sive. The attempt to degrade the U. S. into @ tributary nation was too obvious to be concealed, and the resentment produced, as well by this attempt as the threats which accompanied it was not confined to the federalists. For a moment a spirit was roused on which an American may reflect with pride and which he may consider as a sure protection from external danger. In every part of the continent, the favorite sentiment was-" millions for defence not R cent for tribute." +The author then goes on, thre' several pages, to detail the measures taken to via. dicate the insulted honor of the country; among others, the raising of an army, and the appointment of general ashing 00 10 its command (who had the epi. nion that France, if convinced that the American spirit would sot bend to her will, would recede from the hostile ground she had taken) and proceeds- +" Events soon demonstrated that general Washington had not calculated unreason. ably on the effects of the spirit manifested by his country. Although America, sup. plicating for peace, had been spurned with contempt although the executive directo. ry had rejected with insult her repeated and sincere prayers to be permitted to make explanations, and had baughtily de. manded a concession of their arrogant and unfounded claims, or the advance of pe. cuniary aids as a preliminary to negocia- tion; America in arms was treated with some respect. Indirect pacific overtures were made, and a willingness on the part of France to accommodate the existing differences on reasonable terms, was com. municated." +Every one knows the result. Mr. Adams, always des rous of restoring and preserving harmony with France, eagerly met the overture, and a peace was soon coocleded, which would never be disturbed, if France could be convinced of what is believed to be most solemoly true, that the of long suffering, the American spirit will never submit to degradation From the Philadelphia Register. +NO proposition in Euclid is more cer tainly true, or more plainly demonstrable than this political aziom that the interests of the Farmer, the Mechanic, and the Mer. chant, are so interwoven and blended to gether, SD dependent on each other, that whatsoever will injure any one of those interesta, will, of necessity, affect the other in like manner and the converse of the proposition is equally founded in truth, that whatsoever serves to promote the welfare of any of those occupations, must tend, in its effects, to benefit the rest. If the Farmer could not sell the surplus pro- duce of his lands, by how low a standard would the value of those lands be estab. lished ?

If the occupation of our own merchant is completely suspended, by means of an Embargo-so that neither he nor foreign traders are permitted to buy and curry away the productions of this country- can we be supplied from abroad with those numerous articles which the Deressities of the people and the condition of the coun trv not only render indispensibly requisite; but from which even the revenues of the government are derived ? And if such be the situation in which the farmer and +the merchant are placed, by the more im., mediate operation of as embargo on ou shipping and trade, what must be the con sequences to those numerous as well as useful classes of artisans, and persons of laborious employments, who draw the means of their subsistence from such OC cupations as are dependent upon the pur suits of agriculture and commerce ?

Bryan, has been drawn and fraudulently located: I say fraudulently, because I am well assured that the party has not received any advantage from the warrant, and there is the strongest evidence of fraud. His warrant has been drawn and located, by whom I caunot discover researches were completely baffled by the memorable fire, which it is presumable owed its origin to a desire to cover frauds of this nature. I was referred from the war office to the treasury office; for the only chance of finding out who had acted as ditorney in fact for this old man, was, that the warrant ought to have been return ed and on file there. On going there I found that the space on the record which the warrant ought to have occupied, was black and that no such warrant CXISIS 00 the treasury files. 1 believe this is far from being a solitary case, but that the cases are numerous, and many of those who have honestly earned a title to public land, have been in this way defrauded, and the land sold to speculators who have reaped the benefit of it.

TOGETHER WITH AN ACCOUNT OF The Improvements in Sheep at Ar- lington, The native Sheep of Smith's Island, and the plans proposed of extending this valuable race of animals, for the benefit of the country at large? By GEORGE W. P. CUSTIS Esq. of Arlington House, in the District of Co. lumbia. +AT a time when the energies of the na- tion seem awakened to the state of our fo- reign and domestic concerns, we conceive that the important interests of Agriculture and Manufactures should meet with a consi- derable share of the public discussion. Cer- tain it is, that at no period of our political history could these national subjects excite more interest or be more properly urged to the notice of the publib mind. The unsettled and impending appearance of our foreign af- fairs, and the present disturbed state of the European world, renders it doubly necessary for the citizens of America to cherish and promote their domestic policy, whereby they may derive those resources which are now obtained from abroad and create wealth and industry within themselves. Too long have these important and patriotic interests been neglected. The nation now feels their want, and we trust will duly provide for their sup port. Government, hitherto engaged in other Concerns, will now cherish those domestic institutions, which will preserve the nation's dignity and promote the people's welfare. Of the merits of the little work we are about to issue to the public, it is not our pro- vince to decide, but of the advantages to be derived from its sale we would boy leave to say every thing which a disinterested exertion in the cause of Domestic Manufacture justly demands-And as the profits of this work, after the expences of publication are paid, will be solely devoted to the purposes of the Arlington Institution, we may hope and coh- fidently expect a liberal patronage from a discerning and patriotic community. +EDITOR.

Entrance into PAVIA. We Raid feven days in Milan, where pleafures of every kind were within the reach of all those who had the means of purchafing them, and thereby indem- nifying themfelves for their paft inter- ruptions. There was no fear of Milan becoming a Cepua to the French foldi- ers, under the conimand of General Buonaparte. The diftribution of the rations was good and regular, and we could not have withed for better quar- ters. We were contented with what fell to our lot, being more covetous of glory than pieafore, without being en- vious of thole better able to procure it. While the divifion of Loifon took the road to Lodi, the Cifalpine Legion marched toward. Brefcia to have an eve upon that beautiful country, which had changed its matters feven times in twenty eight years. General Lannes, always in the afficed guard, took pof- fellion of Pavia, on the 5th of June, where ht found confiderable magazines of providions, near one hithdred milliers of powder, five hundred pieces of can- non on carriages, and an equal propor- non of ball befides the powder maga- unes, and eight hundred fick and wounded Auftrians. +The city of Paving once the capital +of Lombardy, was founded by our brave anceftors the Gauls, but was afterwards taken by the Romans, who in their turn were driven out by the Goths in the 5th century. About 1477, the town, being little better than a mais of ruins, was rebuilt, when it changed its name of Tefinum for that of Pavia. It fell in- to the hands of the Lombards in 558, and in 7T4 into thofe of Charlemagne, who founded its univerfity. It was here that Francist while befieging it in 525, was taken prifoner by the Imperialits. Pavia has never recovered itfelf fince it was facked by the French General Lau- trée, in 527. +With refpect to the Auftrian force, we learn, that all this while General Melas was Turin; but that the greateft part of his army was ftill concentrated before Genoa. Perhaps he ftill defpiled our force, or, what is equally probable, he was only executing the orders of the Cabinet of Vienna, which perhaps hid refolved on poffeffing that city, at what- ever rate it might be obtained. He de- tached General O'Reilly to Placenth, and General Otto upon the Teffino; and laftly, he was defirous of operating a powerful divertion in detaching fix thoufand men to Chivaffo, on the fide of the Po. This party pufhed ther patroles as fat as Vercelli, where they fet at liberty three hundred Auftrian prifoners taken by the French. +XVII. PLACENTIA. Without being a profound politiciar, an able geographer, or a great tacticia any foldier, though but little gifted in prophecy, muft have feen the necefitr of a battle which, however defirable to one and the other army, would of courfe decide the fate of Italy. It was hecef. facy to be Frenchmen, and to be full of a well merited confidence, to fheir our eyes upon the dangers which might now furround us on all points. But Murat beat Genneral O'Reilly, at Placentia policifed himfelf of the city, and block- aded the citadel. O'Reilly, feeing by this difafter the pollible danger of his retreat towards Tufcany, fell back upon General Otto, at Stradello and Monte- bello. +At this time the advanced guard; and all the reft of the army, had taken a polition on the Po, in the place where, by the junction with the Tefino, it is as deep as the Rhine. We were no longer to fight with feattered troops; affembled in hafts as before, but with the advanced guard of the Auftrian ar- my, from fifteen to eighteen thoufand men, chofen troops, to whom we had been reprefented as more recruits, and who, enflamed by their late fucces again? Scherer, waited for us with 1 firm foot on the bank of the River. In fhort, every thing that had taken place hicherro, might be confidered as play, in comparifon widt what was about to happem +XVIII. Paffage of the Po. Out army now augmented every day. A ftrong divifion of the army of the Rhine, from which it had feperated un- der the walls of Ulm, after having tra- verfed the Grifons and croffed Motat St. Gothard, and having as well as our- felwes) had obtacles to overcome, and the threat of famine to ftruggle with on their paffage, arrived very a propos to fhare our dangers and our triumphs. BUE they had been compelled to leave their artillery on the other fide of the mous- tain for the lake of expedition. +The grenadiers and carabineets con- tended with impatience for the honorof paffing the river firft; the battalions were alfo as eager to come to blows. The enemy appeared to defpile their hardihood, by allowing them leifure to difembark But as two flying bridges wate eftablifhed acrofs the River, out numbers that landed encreated etery moment, and this ralled their intrepidity higher and higher. No fooner had all the advanced guard croffed than we tacked the Auftrians witha kind of fury: never the lefs they Road the (hock with firmnes. +ing bayonets, driving them into the fwamps, and following them as far as Stradella, upon the road from Placentia, to Tortona. Prodence reftrained their impetuous valor from further purfuit. Night came on, and every one of us patied it, in hopes of finithing the work next day. +At length Lännts ordered the charge: his.fanz.froid redoubled our efforts. The 6th light, the 28th of the line and 44th, precipitated on the energy with advance +XIX. of MONTEBELLO. The fun had fearcely rifen above the horizón when the advanced pofts began to be in motion. The enemy's cannon played, and the feveral battalions took their refpective directions. Our light artillery, and that of the Confular guard, returned their fire. Montebello, which gave name to this fanguinary combat was taken and retaken, and the eager- neis was as great on one fide as on the other but the numbers were very une- qual. +Our advanced guard, about fix thou- faud infantry-and four hundred cavalry, alone fuftained the brunt the action for fome time but the divifion of Wa- trin was approaching, having effected its pailage. During this interval, fix of the enemy's batralions and feveral fqua- drons of frefh troops; bore hard upon our advanced guard. Their numerous cavalry too, profiting by the advantages of an open meadow, charged the rith and 12th huffars. This onfet wasterrible, and the carnage frightful the enemy had the advantage for two hours. At length General Watrin came up, and in an inflant changed the face of things. All the different corps received the fame impultion, as it were fimultaneoufly, and bore on the enemy, who hefitated, ftaggered, and foon after retired, like any thing (wept away by an overwhelming torrent. +The flanding corn, and efpecially the rye, with its lofty itraw, hindered the ref- pective armies from diftinguifhing each other clearly. They ran upon one ano- ther without knowing what force they were contending with; the bayonets croffed each other, dealing out certain death on all fides. An impetuous cou- rage prevailed, and the Auftrians gave way, making precipitately for Voguera. Six thousand prifoners, and twelve pieces of cannon were the reward of this vic- tory. Several generals, and officers of diffinction, in the Auftrian army) were among the killed and wounded; and the ground covered with the flain and the dying, proved tongeneral Melas what were the foldiers he had to do with. +XX. Reduction of GENOA, by the Enemy. WE leartied, by the prifoners, the fate of Genoa, and its honourable capi- tulation. This unfortunate intelligence made a lively fenfation on our minds; but the fuccefs we had juft obtained, tempered, in a great degree, the pain it occafioned. But that which for the moment appeared a real calamity to our eyes, feemed two days after to increafe our fame, as we had the glory to com- bat with all the Auftrian forces united, and to gain an ever-memorable vic- tory: +KXII. Blockade of TOR TONA. The day after the battle of Monte- bello, our head quarters were removed to Voguera. The army filed through this town, on its march to Tortona. Or. patting under the window, at which was the Conful, we there law general Defaix, and an emigrant officer, who had come to parley with him. Upon this we CA- deavoured to fhew in our countenances and our geftures, the joy which reign- ed in our hearts. The cries of Vive Buo- napårte! with our mufic playing the buriefque air, anfwering to the words, Nous lui percerons le Hane,' we ob- ferved to darken the afpect of that of- ficer. +To take Milan to operate a junc- tion with general Moncey, who had come from the Rhine with two divifions; to cut off the rear of the enemy at Bre- foia, Orci-Novi, Marcaria, and Placen- tia ; to take their Magazines; poffets ourfelves of their depots, their fick; and their park guns, were the orders given to the parties for their movements, while the main army was to watch that*of the enemy, beat up the Po, and effect the the paffage of that river before the Stra- della. +COOK'S VOYAGE. [Continued form ou left.] +THOUGH he was pleafed with his fituation, yet his diforder, which was of the bilious kind, continued to increafe. Mr. Banks and Dr. Solander were both feized with the country difeafe, to which Mr. Monkhoufe the furgeon fell the firlt facrifice. His death was greatly regretted. Poor Tayota died next, and Tupia was to much affected by the news, that he furvived but a few days, during which time he refuled all medi- cines. In fhort, the fcene of diftrefs increafed amazingly, fo that before the Thip Tufficiently repaired there were not more than ten men able to do duty. Mr. Banks and Dr. Solander were given over, but being removed into the country recovered flowly. The Cap. tain himfelf was at length tåken ill, as was Mr. Sporing; a gentleman who at- tended Mr. Banks, by which it was fup- pofed the difeafe was infectious. At length the joyful news was received on the 8th of December, that the ship was perfectly refitted and from that day till the time of her departure, the utmoft diligence was ufed to take in every ne- ceffary for the profecution of their vdy. age home. +On the 26th of December, they fet fail from this pestilent harbor, after fome warm altercation between the Governor of the town and Capt. Cook, about re- taining a failor who had left the Dutch fervice, and had entered on board the Endeavour in which, however, the Captain behaved with becoming fpirit and gained his point. At their fetting fail, the number of fick was at leaft 40s and thofe that were called well, were fo feeble as fcarce to be able to keep their watch. But what is temark- able, every individual had felt the per- nicious effects of this inhofpitable clis matè, except an eld fall maker, who, tho' upwards of years of age, kept himfelf drunk every day; but whether from that circumitance, or the ftrength of his conftitution, certain it is that he ailed nothing the whole time. +Tupia's deathis not afcribed to the cli- mate. Being all his life accutioned to live on vegetable food, when he came to be obliged to fubfilt on the provifions of the Thip, he began to fuffer from the Icorbutic diforders that generally attack landmen in long-continued voyages at Tea without refrethment from the thore, and is is thought he could not have liv- ed to fee England, had he not been car- ried to Batavia for the fhip to refit. Onthe 1 5th of March, they arrived at the Cape of Good Hope. Here the furvivors were let on fhore with all pof- fible difpatch, for during their voyage the infections diforder contracted at Ba- tavia raged with incredible malignity. Mr. Banks's life was more than once defpaired of the thip was nothing bet- ter than an holpital thofe that were well were in number hardly fufficient to give due attendance on thofe that were fick infomuch, that in the thort run of fix weeks they butied, three-and-twenty perfons, befides thole buried in Batavia Among thofe who,died at fea were, Mi Sporing, Mr. Parkifon (Mr. Banks's natural hiftory painter), Mr. Green the aftronomer, Mr. Monkhoufe the mid- fhipman, who faved the fhip by fother- ing the old fail maker, with three or four other petty officers; the reft ma- rines and common feamen. On the 13th of April, they began to prepare to leave the Cape ; the fick were all ordered on board, feveral of whom were ftill in a very dangèrous way. On the 4th, they weighed enchor and on the ift of May arrived in the hare bor of St. Helena, having lofttheir mas- tor, Mr. Molincux, in their palinge. Here they flayed four days, wherein Mr. Banks, being greatly recovered, improved his time to the beft advantage: On the 4th of May they failed from S. Helena, and on the 23d, they loft their firft Lieut. Mr. Hicks. On the 10th of June they difcovered the Lizard point, and on the 12th, paffed Beachy head, and the fame day machored in the Downs. +(To be continued) +Concluded diff --git a/textract_ocr/40167_layout_extracted.txt b/textract_ocr/40167_layout_extracted.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..09bf62185f16f4054498c6d837ff0acc6f40652f --- /dev/null +++ b/textract_ocr/40167_layout_extracted.txt @@ -0,0 +1,32 @@ +DUANE, A evenings ago, fpent fome time in the houte acquisintance, for whom high efteem. were engaged talking on the Date the the health lie citizens enjoyed and praiting the vigilance'ot the board at licalth, when, to my in popped his reverence had dot been in his company long whiley though pretty in debt the account other, we never tee reverence unlefs at the bouie now happened -howevery after few Marp looks he membered Blofsine, Robert, how do Much ufual antwered draw- my chair little od of the corner. into which had myfelf on his entrance find Robert you have not learned wifdom enough, let the elergy done, but in your odd way, have attacked parion Abererom- bie.

PURDIE S I R, +T HE powerful Manner in which the Law and the Confitution re- claim against the military Force being called to aid the civil Autho- rity is so properly difplayed in the following Speech of a great Lawyer, that Gazette. you will do the Publick Service by inferting it in your useful A CUSTOMER. +N the firft Year of the laft Parliament, on the Queftion inciden- I tally ariling whether it was in the Power of the Crown to leave Troops quartered in a Town where the Election was (though the Act recites it never had been done) on the bare Queftion being ftarted, the Parliament thought fit that Doubt fhould not laft any longer, but they brought in a Bill to remove the Pollibility of a Doubt on that Head. What is the Preamble to the Bill? Why, that all Elections ought to be free; and the Conclufion is, that all Troops fhall go out of the Town, and not return till after the laft Day of the Election. Befides this, Sir, it was the Opinion of the Legiflature, laft Parliament, that it was a neceffary Confequence that all Troops fhould withdraw from the Place of Election. I am aware of an Objection that will be made, by Way of Exception. It will be faid, what cannot the Troops come to keep the Peace? A Specious Pretext, indeed! believe there never was, nor ever will be, the Cafe of an Army being prefent at an Election, but every Soldier has a double Vote. We need not go into many Inftances to fhow this has been the Cafe; the fame Caufe will produce the fame Effect. It will be urged, I fuppofe, the Civil Magiltrate was not ftrong enough: Shall he not then call in their Affiftance? I beg Lea to fay, the Law of England will not fuffer a Suppofition of that Sort to be made; for, if a Sheriff who is armed (I am aware of the Objection) I fay, if a Sheriff who is armed with the Civil Power of his Country, or if a Bai- lift who is armed by the Law, if he fhould return as an Anfwer for not executing the King's Writ that he was refifted, though the Fact be true, the Law confiders it as a Fact not to be fuppofed, and an Action lies againft him at the Suit of the Party. And why? Becaufe it is a Libel on the Government to fuppole the Civil Magiftrate is not ftrong enough. Sir, I would obferve a noted Diffinction taken in the Law Books: Ifa Jail is broke open by a foreign Enemy, that is an Excule; but if a Jail is broke open by Rebels, the Law will not allow the She- riff to give that in Excufe, though it be ever fo true, because it is a Reflection on the Government. He muft arm with the Civil Power, which is ftrong enough to fupport itfelf. Many have been the Inftances where a Corporation has been disfranchifed, and fined, be- caufe thefe Riots were never quelled; and the Law expects they fhould do it. This is the Notion of the Common Law, and, I beg Leave to fay, the Statute Law too. +Sir, thefe Troops are kept up by annual Bills, not for the Affiftance of the Civil Magiftrate. That would be an annual keeping up of Troops for a Reafon that lafts for ever They are never kept up but upon great Occafions, fuch as carrying on the War with Spain; there is no Intimation that the Civil Magiftrate wants Affifiance. This will ftill farther appear from this, which you will give me Leave to fay, that no Civil Magiftrate can command Affiltance from any Body of Troops. And if the Law confidered them as necellary to affilt him, the Law would give the Civil Magiftrate fome Power to command them there; but when Troops do go, they go by Virtue of military Authority, and act there under military Command. Sir, the Autho- rity which the Law gives the Civil Magiftrate (I fpeak only of those Magiltrates that are applicable to the prefent Cafe) and their Defence in the Execution of legal Commands, is this: They may command Affiftance of every Man within their Jurifdiction; every Man is a Conflable for keeping the Peace. And what is the Confequence if they do not obey? They are liable to a Profecution by Indictment or In- formation, and they are clearly fo liable. But can any Civil Magif- trate fend any Warrant to the Guards? Sir, the Propofition I have laid down is not with Regard to any Soldier happening to ftand there, but a Body under military Command. +Is there fuch a Warrant known to the Laws? Would any military Officer be obliged to obey it? No, certainly; for if he did not, there could be no Profecution againft him. Wherever they go, they go by Virtue of military Authority; but not by the Command of the Civil Magiftrate, becaufe they are liable to no Profecution if they do not obey. When they are there, they do not act under the Civil Com- mand; if they did, the only Confequence of Milbehaviour would be that they were liable to Profecution on Indictments or Informations. But will it be contended, that if a Body of Troops come there, and any one deferts, is he not liable to be fhot to Death according to mili- tary Difcipline? If the Sheriff was to order a Soldier to do one Thing, and his Officer another, I fubmit it to you, if he difobeys the Officer, whether he muft not be tried by a Court Martial. That fhows they go by military Authority. and there act by military Command. Sir, I beg Leave to fay, in Fact, the Civil Government of this City is fub- ftantially ftrong to fupport itfelf. It has fupported itfelf at every other Election throughout the Kingdom, and yet there may have come Complaints before you where Numbers have been angry at what the returning Officer did. There is not an Imagination of the Peace's being broke- What are the Guards of the Court? The Juffices. What are the Guards of you, but barely the Law and the Civil Au- thority +Sir, I am warranted by the Refolution of this Houfe, in the Year 1733, to day that the Riots and Tumults have pafled too near thefe Doors. You fent your Commands to the Civil Magiftrate, and in- ftantly all was quiet. Would you, on Pretence of keeping the Peace, fuffer a Company of Guards to ftand in the Lobby? No Man, Sir, would with to fee that Day when the Civil Government of this Country cannot fupport itfelf without the Affiltance of the Military. I will be bold to fay, when it is not, that Civil Government is undone: Forit is +then not the Law, but the military Power, that governs; and I hope, in this Country, the bare Word of a Tipftaff will go as far as the Commands of a Lieutenant General. I know it will be preffed ftill farther; but all the Argument will hold, in general, in every Cafe. But, fuppofe a Cafe of moft extraordinary Neceffity, when the Civil Magiftrate is really overpowered, and there is Fire fet to the Town, fhall not the Troops then be called in to his Affiftance? I think I put the Objections as flrong as Ican. That fatal Argument, of contending for an Exception to conftitutional Principles, that fatal Argument, has brought us many Times to the Brink of Deftruction. Nothing is cleare: Jhan that no Freeman is to be imprifoned but according to Law What! not if the King knows he is coming to attack him ? The Argument was fpecious, and the Power of judging was trufted fome Where; and it took away the whole Liberty of the Subject. Every Man was imprifoned for a Mandatum Domini Regis. There was another Refolution taken, that 1:0 Money fhould be levied on the Subject but by the Confent of Parliament. What! not on a Cafe of Neceffity? They argued it might in a Cafe of Neceffity, and that overturned the whole Rule; and when Money was raifed, it was for Neceffity. Suppole there comes an extraordinary Cafe, never within the Intention of the Legiflature, that produced the difpenfing Power which difpenfed with all the Power of the Legiflature. It muft tend to lodge a difcretionary Power with fomebody to judge of that Necef- fity. It muft be lodged with the military Officers, for it will not mend the Cafe if it is lodged with the returning Officer. Shall it be laid down, that Troops may go to an Election? Thefe are fatal Ar- guments indeed! How far is Neceffity to jultify? Is it fufficient that the Officer fufpects or finells a Riot Is it fufficient, when he knows in his own Mind he is going to do a Thing which onght to provoke the People If fo, that will conclude a too general difcretionary Latitude, wherever the returning Officer thinks fit to have it; and I believe it will not be much doubted but the military Officer will exert himfelf according to the Candidates that fend for him. +If a Man will not ufe the Means the Law puts into his Hands, if he will not profecute thofe who refufe to obey him, that makes the Civi Government ufelefs to ferve as a Pretence for introducing military Troops. +In Cafe Rioters fhould be pulling down Houfes, and a Detachment of the Army ordered in Aid of the Civil Magiftrate, and a Number of People affemble and ftop ail the Paffages, may fuch Detachment ufe Force? I think it is hardly poffible for any Man to word the Queftions ftronger than this. I believe theie Queftions were propofed by a Friend of the Army, that they might have a Guard on their Conduct. What was the Refult of this? When it came to be confidered how little the Laws of England knew of Soldiers, and how dangerous a Motive it was to fay on any Account the Law confidered them as legal Affiftance; and yet how improper it might be to fay they fhould not be made Ufeof, it was thought proper thefe Queftions never fhould be and they never have been anfwered, to this Hour. +The People are almoft always in the right; the Great may fome- times be in the wrong, but the Body of People are always in the right. The Civil Government of this Country was nëver defigned to be over- awed by the military Power. There is a great Deal of Difference between leaving it to the People to judge of the Neceffity, and leaving it to the regular armed Troops to judge of it. I am afraid, Sir, Ex- perience flows it may be pretended, nine Times out of ten, to be for Neceffity. Let a man look to Ruffia, and obferve the Neceffity there. +A Receipt for the PLEURISY. W HEN the Patient is firft taken with a Pain in his Breaft, or Side; with a fmart Fever and Cough, I firft give a Dofe of Tartar Emetick, from one to fix Grains, according to the Age of the Sick. Wórk it well off with warm Water. After it bath done working, let him fup Mutton or Chicken Broth. The next Day, if his Pulfe continues quick and ftrong, I have him bled plentifully, and immedi- ately after give him as much of the Pleurify Root, pounded very fine, and then fearched through a fine Search, as will lie upon a tolerable broad Cafe Knife, in a Cup of warm Water, and repeat the Dofe every two Hours, until the Patient is perfectly recovered, which hap- pens frequently after three Days, and never fails freeing him from Pain after fix; but if he bath been ill fome Days, and is very weak, it will be difcreet to continue to give him one Dofe every Night when he goes to Bed, until he regains his Strength, by the above Remedy. I have cured Hundreds, and never failed in a fingle Inftance. In fhort, I am fo well convinced of the Efficacy of this Method of treating a Pleurify that I would, for Half a per Cent. enfure the Life of any Perfon in that Diforder, to any Amount, if could be fure of his being treated in that Manner any Time before he was actually fpeechlefs. If the Patient is very far gone, the Dofe of Tartar Emetick muft be increafed; as too fmall a Dofe, in fuch a State, will only difturb the Matter it cannot carry off. I have fometimes cured when the Patient has been fo far gone that I have been obliged to have him carried upon a Bier by two Men, and a third to hold him whilft they were thus giving him Exercife to work his Vomit. In this Situation, the Cafe is fo defperate that he muft be bled as foon as his Vomit is done working, and then the Pletirify Root given immediately; but it is always fafelt not to bleed until the Day after the Vomit, becaufe if the Pulfe is then ftrong you may be fure it is then a Pleurify, and not a nervous Fever. There are three Sorts of the Pleurify Root, commonly known by the Name of the Butterfly Weed; the one bears a white, the fecond an Orange coloured, and the third a dufky red coloured Blof- fom. The Orange Colour is what I have always nfed; it grows in almoft every Enclofure, and is in full Bloom about Harveit, when it is to be got. It bears its Flowers in a large Bunch at Top, and may be eafily known by the immente Numbers of Butterflies which are con- ftantly on the Flowers. diff --git a/textract_ocr/46284_layout_extracted.txt b/textract_ocr/46284_layout_extracted.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..cf39d144240ecfae0cef44eb57bde35ceb80a2f8 --- /dev/null +++ b/textract_ocr/46284_layout_extracted.txt @@ -0,0 +1,41 @@ +state, founded legal Information, Judges of Courts of Common Law have been made entirely dependent the Crown for their Committions and Salaries.

At the fame time, I beg leave to affure your lordfhip, that when- ever it fhall pleafe his majefty to call me forth to any honourable fervice, againft the natural hereditary enemies of our country, or in defence of his juft rights and dignity, no man will obey the righte- ous fummons with more zeal and alacrity than myfelf; but the prefent meafures feem to me fo abfolutely fubverfive of the rights and liberties of every individual fub- ject, fo deftructive to the whole empire at large, and ultimately fo ruinous to his majefty's own perfon, dignity, and family, that I think obliged, in confcience, as a citizen, Englifhman, and foldier of a free ftate, to exert my utmoft to defeat them. I moft devoutly pray to Almighty God to direct his majefty into meafures more confonant to his intereft and honour, and more conducive to the happinefs and glory of his people.

At firit, I was contented with an inquiry by the committee of the county, and ex- pected it would have retted there; but having tranfinitted a copy of the firit depotition, and other proceedings, to one of our delegates, for his private latistac- tion, together with the copy of aninttruc- tion to him and his colleague, he thought himfelf obliged to lay the matter before the Hon. the Convention, and 1 am in- formed fome ill-natured inferences were drawn from the circumítance that only one depotition appeared.

I have only to obferve, that the converfation happened before the defeat of col. Hutchings, and was in the com- pany of feveral of the late committee of the county, whom 1 thought could not have miltaken my meaning. They knew I had, from the beginning of our diltur- bances, exerted myfelf, within the finall circle of my acquaintance, in raiting a fprit of oppolition to parliamentary tyran- ny.

Bullitt's letter being more than could be, with any con- venience, inferted in a newfpaper, to comply, as nearly as we can, with that gentleman's requelt, we have extracted the fubitance, which is, as follows, viz. At a commistee of Prince William county, held the 16th day of December 1775, mr. Bullitt applied to the committee to have an inquiry made into his conduct relative to what had been reported againft him. The committee took the depofiti- ons of col. Burr Harrifon, mr. William Brent, and mr. Cuthbert Harrifon ; and delivered it as their opinion, that mr. Bul- litt had only acted unguardedly, but that they were convinced, from the zeal he had always Thewn in the American caufe, and from what now appeared, that he had no delign to depreciate the currency of the colony, or to injure the rights of Ame- rica. The depolitions of the above-men- tioned gentlemen fet forth, that about the firlt of November, at mr. Burr Harri- fon's funeral, they heard mr. Bullitt cen- fure the extravagance of the Convention, +in allowing to great a falary, in many inftances, to perfons employed by them, fo different from the frugal-conduct of the Congrets; that he had exprefied his fears of the confequence of fuch a behaviour, if continued, which he forefaw would be the greateft injury to the credit of the paper money Oi the colony that he thought every one in to righteons a caufe ought to be contented with a reafonable allowance for his fervice, fuch as could enable him to live with economy, and not tempt him to luxury; and that, for his own part, he would rather fuffer his right hand to be cut off than take more. But that, from the whole tenour of his con- verfation, it by no means appeared that he intended in theleaft to injure the credit of the paper currency. The two refolves mentioned in mr. Bullitt's letter, framed and carried by him into committee, ere, firlt, that every member of the commit- tee, as well abfent as prefent, fhould de- polite, into the hands of fome merchants proper to be intrufted for this purpofe, a crop hhd. of tobacco, of the weight of to be appropriated towards the importation of a certain quantity of gun- powder, to be applied towards the defence of the county, in cafe of the attack or hoftile invalion of any fòreign-power; and, fecondly, that the inhabitants of the coun- ty thould be formed into companies, and properly trained and exercifed; and that they fhould provide themfelves with the belt arms, and as much ammunition as they could procure, that they might be prepared to defend themfelves againtt the machinations of the enemies of Great Bri- tain and the colonies.

Collins, from Liver- pool- The Mermaid left Grenada the 17th of May, and on her pailage home fell in with the privateer Harlequin, Capt. Hutchins, belonging to Bermu- da. The privateer was under French colours, and affumed the name of the National Razor, which induced Capt. Collins to hoift American colours. Af- ter fome confiderable parley with them, a Lieutenant and a boat's crow from the privateer came on board, rumaged every thing in the cabin, and, under the pretence of her having two fets of papers, put a prize maiter on board, and ordered her for Bermuda. Butby the activity and adroitnefs of Capt. Collins, and part of his crew, which were left on board, the brig was retaken, and arrived at Liverpool the 29th ult.

July 29: We are informed that the veffel which was fitted out at Smithfield, and which was fuppofed to be intended for a pritateer, was taken poffeffion of by the volunteer companies from Richmond and Prince George, immediately on their arrival there. The Prince George infantry have charge of the veffel, and the is now on her way up to City- Point. +Official information is received at the War Office confirmative of the defeat of the favages on the in July. They attacked the efcort commanded by Ma- or M'Mahan clofe under the walls of Fort Recovery on the morning of the 30th of June. Their numbers eftima- ted from one thousand to fifteen hun- dred. The attack of the efcort was followed immediately by a general af- fault upon the Fort, in which they were repulfed with confiderable flaughter. They however continued a diflant fire the remainder of the day and by inter- vals during the night and twelve o'clock the next day, July the firft, when they retreated. They were fol- lowed fome diffance by part of the gar- rifon, commanded by Captain Gibfon, but tl ein numbers and ambufcades com- pelled him to obferve great caution. We 10ft twenty -one officers and foldiers kill- ed and twenty-nine wounded, among the former was the excellent partizan Major M'Mahan, whofe lofs is greatly regretted, Captain Hartfhorne, Lieu- tenant Craig and Cornet Torrey, all of whom fell during the higheft exertions of bravery. Among the wounded are Capt. Taylor of the Dragoons and Lieutemant Drake of the Infantry----------------- one foldier miffing. The dragoons fuffered the moft out of fifty in the action, twenty were either killed or wounded one hundred horfes remained after the action, but al- moft all of them wounded twenty-fe- ven horfes were killed in the repeated charges made by that gallant Captain. Two hundred of the Contractor's horfes were killed and milling. There is but little doubt from the previous information that the attack was made by the mafs of the Indian forces, and that they fuffered feverely, of which there were feveral enequivocal evidences. Their fuperior numbers and the horfes which they gained during the action, enabled them to carry off the greateft +part of their dead, but they left bo- dies on the ground before the fort, which they could carry away. +divifion of the mounted mili- tia of Kentucky were expected at Fort Wafhington about the 20th of July, and the fecond about the 23d. fter the arrival of this auxiliary force at the head of the line, which may have been the latter part of July, General Wayne will enabled to move for and for the purpofe of accom- plifhing the objects of the campaign, which it is expected will not be very difficult by comparing the quality and numbers of our troops with those of the enemy. +Fort Recovery is fituated, 97 1-2 miles from Fort Wathington, on the Ohio in the field where the action of the fourth of November 791 wãs fought.

Something very like a Whale. From the Aerora. Aletter from New York, received laft evening, fays, Vermont has giv- en Jefferfon TWO VOTES. The leading Jacobins at Wafhington had expreffes conftantly paffing from thence to Lancafter, previous to the de- cifion for Electors, and when they found that threats, flattery and corruption had no effect on the Senate of Pennfylvania, they advifed the lower houfe to clofe with the propofition of the Senate. An attempt has been made to bribe the Federal Electors in a neighbouring State, but like the Federal Thirteen of Pennfylvania, they were tempted in vain. +THIRTEEN United States, faved them- foreign yoke and Senators of Pennfylvania have faved thefe States from anarchy and Jacobinifm. The number Thirteen muft be gratefull to Americans. +We have already noticed the dif- miffal of Mr. Bullock, from being Clerk to the Houfe of Reprefentatives of Penn- fylvania. For his difcharge no other rea- fon could be urged, than to make room for a Man of their own politics. This unprovoked act on the part of the lower houfe, was expected to produce, on the part of the Senate, fyftem of reta- liation, and the retaining of their old Clerk, Mr. Matlack, attonithed every perfon. We at that time obferved that the candor and liberality of the Senate, formed ftriking contraft with the lower houfe, and the retaining of Mr. Matlack, was an evidence that mere difference in political opinion was no crime in the eyes of Federal Repub- licans. Had Mr. M. confined him. felf to a decent and proper exercife of his opinion, we doubt not he might ftill have remained in office but cogent reafons have at length urged the Senate to make him vacate his place, and they have filled it with Mr. Bullock, who was turned out by the lower houfe.

This ridicutons piece of French mummery, and the three infidious toafts drank on the occation, are much like the mountebank tricks that were off in the year 1794, when the French and twin- ed together, were the of the National Convention that verily fufpect thefe juglers intend, if pollible, to di ceive and enfnare us ence more. By a fpecial Providence, in our we efcaped from their firft attempt, but we have no reafon to expect fimilar interpolition repeated, if put ourlelves iu their power again. We have a more artful fcoundrel to deal with at prefent, than who were on the board that period. and the poifon of French prin- ciples have fpread wider and deeper among our own But the toafts are not ridiculous as the mummery that preceded them. In the very buffle of inkey tricks Monfieur often medidates deep and extentive mitchief. A Frenchman is made up of contraries Miscere seria jocis, in its very world fente, IS better underflood by them than by any other people exifting. As it will not take a great llendeavour analyze thefe politico, vibatory fentiments. The (by the Chief Conful) To of the French and Americans, who died on the field battle. for the in- dependence of the New World." Here we schold, as we had done hundr times be- fore, fomething to remind the debt we owe to France ; upon farth, I'believe fhall never wipe this ancient feare. Frenchmen who died on the battle and far was the independence of America, the object of the alliance Few, andeed, of that nation fell in the American war, they were moltiy at diffance from the tented field and thore were the friends, and loyal fubjects of Louis who, if they had not fallen in battle, would very have been exiled, or murdered, by the very cut-throats who LOW gretend to honour their memory. Yet this arch-rebel places their fervices to the crecit of the Frencis Republic, as an offset, ween, againft her depredations on American comm ree. If thefe fervices had not been fully compenfi- ted, agreeably to the letter and fpirit of the treaty, by the difinemberment of the Britith Empire, and by payment in full of all our money contracts ; the debt would be flill due, not to the beggarly cides, but the Royal Family, to the nobility, the clergy, and the other ancient proprietors of the of France. Therefore this Corfical fhould have been filent with refpect to the Frenchmen who died to eftablim American Independence. The second (by Cambeceres) is, To the fucceffor of Wamington."

Hoa ! messmates! hot! holloa ! all bands ahoy Come, tumble up, my hearties !-each his station, "Tis time I think to take an observation So-heres to Captain CHRISTOPHER," my boy. What say ye, lads ! do you approve the notion, To haul our ships ashore and quit the ocean, And tamely see H Frenchman, or a Spaniard, Who scarcely knows a towline from a lanyard, Insult our Country, and heap wrongs upon her, Without on broadside for Columbia's honour Shall we who've weather'd many a stubborn gale, Dowse our top gallants at a lubber's hail? Or when the send drives fast, and billows roar, Soulk in our hammocks till the squall be o'er No, damme, and your tempers well I know, Ye'll ne'er crowd canvas to avoid a foe; Nor will ye, cause a few French shot may fly, Ere wish to lay our vessel high and dry, Where ne'er again we'll to our quarters stand, Unless the gallick tyrant come by land. Who minds a squall ? Our vessel's tight and trim, Give her but sea room, and fear-she'H swim- Or should an enemy our rights oppose, Lie board and-board, with any of her foes. We're told that some on shore, who have direction, Say Commerce is not worth a state's protection / And that 'twould much increase Columbia's riches, To hant her shipping into docks and ditches ! Once she gets in that bight, twixt you and me, Columbia lags to leeward, do you see And much I fear, If this report be true, Will ne'er claw off, with honour to her crew. What think ye Riggers, and Rope makers too When gloomy clouds, the sea, and sky deform, When loudly warring, comes the furious storm, And mountain surges threaten to o'erwhelm, Let Resolution firmly take the helm Though topmasts crack, and each sail seeks relief, Ne'er fear my hearties to shake out a reef, When Honour pipes, the ship may safely heel, Tis worse, by far, to shew her stern than keel. If such the course, our country wou'd pursue, Give us but sea-room, and her foe in view, Our flag shall ride triumphant the waves, Or we, lamented, sink to noble graves. Then come, my lads, your Faneuil Hall attend, Make GORE your Captain-GORE the SAILORS' FRIEND.

Schooner Mohawk of this port, arrived at Salem, in 28 days from Liverpool. LONDON, October 14* +PACIFIC OVERTURES. A Russian French messenger arrived from France Friday morning and returned on Sunday. Nothing certain has yet transpired either with res- pect to the dispatches or to the reply returned by our government. We have heard that the former are very they consist of two letters da- ted from Erfurth, and addressed by M. de Cham- pagny, the French minister for foreign affairs, and Romanzow, the Russian minister, to his ex- cellency George Canning, the two letters are in substance the same, stating that his Majesty the Emperor of all the Russias and his Majesty the Emperor of the French, being equally animated with a desire to put an end to the calamities of war, the (the Minister for Foreign Affairs) has it in com- mand from his majesty to request his excellency to communicate to bis Britannick majesty that desire, and if his Britannick majesty be influenced by a milar desire, to propose that Plenipotentiaries shall be immediately named, to proceed to H place that may be fixed upon, to open a negociation with the plenipotentiaries of his Imperial Majesty for the conclusion a +If we be correct, the answer that returned by his majesty's ministers to such communication is obvious. The epithet applied by the enemy to the kind of peace which they are desirous of nego- ciating, shews us at once that they do not admit our interference in the affairs of the continent. ma- jesty's ministers, we should jecture, would reply to M. de Champagny, and M. Romanzow, that his Britannick majesty animated the desire which he had always expressed. and which was known to all Europe, to put an end to the calamities of war, whenever be could do so, consistently with the se- curity of his dominions, the honour of his crown, and the good faith he owed to his allies-that he was ready to enter into negociation in concert with those allies, and that he will immediately communi- cate the overture that had been made to him, to his majesty the king of Sweden, to the prince regent of Portugal, and to the central and supreme junta in Spain, governing in the name of his Catholick ma- jesty Ferdinand VII. +Other persons have indulged very different con- jectures. They imagine, we think, contrary to all probability, that Buonsparte and his vassal empe- your, have at once rushed in medias res; that they have proposed a basis in limine; and that they have begun by mentioning terms. Some suppose that in the overture to our government, we are told that we right to assist the Spaniards-that it is a mere family quarrel, with which we, as Islanders, have nothing to do. This be would hardly do in the first instance. It will be found, we dare say. that the overture which has been made us, IS of a loose and general nature, and does not touch the terms or basis. +The arrival of the messengers had some effect up- on the funds: but it produced disgust instead of pleasure in the publick mind. Every body viewed the overture as an insidious attempt to detach us from the Spanish and Portuguese patriots there is not a man who did not say, 15 Buonaparte rea- dy, as a preliminary to negociation, to withdraw his troops from Spain, andrelease Ferdinand the 7th- if he IS negotiation; let US hear of no peace: send messengers and his overtures with disdain and defiance."

An embargo has been laid at Petersburgh, Russia, where several American vessels are among the de- tained. American vessels are not admitted at Trieste dur- ing the American embargo-in consequence, six bound thither have stopped at Malta.

It has in all proba- bility been formed by the sediment bro't down by the current and deposited on the flat coast. There is therefore on the cast side but a very narrow slip along the Bank of the river, from the sea to the Iberville. The land is not generally susceptible of cultivation more than a mile in depth from the river, the rest is low and swampy to the lakes and the sea, but in general abounds with cypress timber, which is sawed by mills, which are worked @ artificial streams from the Mississippi, in the time of the freshes. They generally run five months in the year. +What has been said on the east equal- ly applies to the west side of the river. The soil and situation are nearly the same. After leaving the bank of the ri- yer, there is an immense swamp, inter- sected by creeks and lakes, extending to the high lands of Atacapas, and occupy- inga space of thirty of forty leagues. The city of New-Orleans, which is regularly laid out on the gast side of the Mississippi, in lat. 30, N. and long. 90, W. extends nearly a milealong the river, from the gate of France on the south, to that of Chapitoulas above, and a little more than 1-3 of a mile in breadth, from the river to the rampart but it has an extensive suburb on the upper side. The houses in front of the town and for a square or two backwards are mostly brick, covered with slate or tile, and ma- ny of two stories. The remainder are of wood, covered with shingles. The streets cross each other at right angles, andare 32 French feet wide. The squares between the intersection of the streets have a front of 300 French feet. There is in the middle of the front of the city a place d' armes, facing which a church and town house are built. There are from 12 to 1400 houses in the city and suburbs. The population may be esti- mated at 10,000, including the seamen and garrison. It was fortified in 1793, but the works were originally defective, could not have been defended, and are now in ruins. The powder magazine is on the opposite banks of the river. The public buildings and other public property in New-Orleans are as follows Two very extensive brick stores, from 160 to 180 feet in length, and about 30 in breadth- They are one story high and covered with shingles. A government house, stables and gar- den, occupying a front of about 220 feet on the river, in the middle of the town, and extending 336 feet back to the next street. A military hospital. An ill built custom house of wood, al- most in ruins, in the upper part of the city near the river. An extensive barrack in the lower part of the city, fronting on the river, and calculated to lodge 12 or 1400 men. A large lot adjoining the king's stores, with a few sheds in it. It serves as a park for artillery. A prison, town-house, market house, assembly room, some ground rents, and the commons about the town. A public school for the rudiments of the spanish language. A Cathedral church unfnished, and some houses belonging to it. A charitable hospital, with some hous- es belonging to it, and a revenue of 500 dollarsannually, endowed by an indivi- dual lately deceased. The canal de Carondelet has been al- ready described. Number of Inhabitants. According to the annexed census, No. 2, of Louisiana, including Pensacola and the Natchez, as made in 1785, the whole number of inhabitants amounted +to 32,062, of which 14,216 were free whites, 1,303 free people of colour, and 16,643 slaves. +The statement, No. 3, from the lat- est documents makes the whole number 42,375-the free whites 21,244-the free people of colour, 1,768, and the slaves 12,920. A particular statement respecting the population, &e. of Upper Louisiana, and another containing the census of New- Orleans, in this year, are numbered 4 and 5 in the appendix. These papers certainly exhibit a small- er number than the real population of the country. From an official document, made in July last, and received from Atacapas since the statement No. 3, was formed, it appears it contained 2,270 whites, 210 free people of colour, 1,226 slaves, in all 3,746 souls, instead of 1,447, as therein stated. It is highly probable that the return for the neigh- bouring district of Opelousas, is in the same proportion underrated, A conjectural, estimation made by a gentleman of great respectability and correct information, residing at Natch- ez, raises the number of whites in the Island of New-Orleans, on the west side of the river, and some settlements on the east side, to 50,150, and the number of blacks to 30,820. His statement is also subjoined, No. 6. It is at all times difficult to obtain the true census of a country, and the impedi- ments are increased in this from its scat- tered population. The actual. enume- ration may therefore fall short of the true numbers. Militia. +There is a militia in Louisiana.

It is however, imperfectly clo- sed behind, and almost without. defence there, too much reliance having been placed on the swampiness of the ground, which hardens daily. It might be taken perhaps, by escalade, without difficulty. It is meant to defend the approach from the sed and can oppose, at most, but eight heavy guris. It is built at a turn in the river, where ships in general must anchor, as the wind which brings them up so far is contrary in the next reach which they mostly work through and they would therefore be exposed to the fire of the fort. On the opposite banks are ruins of a small closed redoubt, cal- led fort Bourbon, usually garrisoned by a sergeant's command. Its fire was in, tended to flank that of the fort of Plaque- mines, and prevent shipping and craft from ascending or descending on that When a vessel appears, a signal is made on one side, and answered on the other. Should she attempt to pass without sending a boat on shore, she would be immediately fired upon. Indians. The Indian nations within the limits of Louisiana are as far as known as fol- lows, and consist of the numbers hereaf- ter specified. On the eastern bank of the Mississip- pi about 25 leagues above Orleans the remains of the nation of Houmas or Red Men which do not exceed 60 persons. There are no other Indians settled on this side of the river either in Louisia- na or Florida, though they are at times frequented by parties of wander- ing Choctaws. On the west side of the Mississippi are the remains of the Tounisas settled near, and above Pointe Coupee on the river, consisting of fifty or sixty persons. In the Atacapas. On the lower parts of the Bayon Teche at about eleven or twelve leagues from the sea is two villages of Chitimachas consisting of about 100 souls.

Between the Red River and the An kansas there are but a few Indians the remains of tribes almost extinct. On this last river.i the nation of the same name, consisting of about 260 warri. ors, they are brave yet peaceable and well disposed, and have always been attached to the French, espoused their cause intheir wars with the Chickasaws, whom they have always resisted with success. They live. in three villages, the first is at eighteen leagues from the Mississippi on the Arkanzas river, and the others are at three and aix leagues from the first. A scarcity of game on the eastern side of the Mississippi has lately induced a number of Cherokees, Choctaws, and Chickasaws, to frequent the neighbourhood of Arkanzas, where game is still in abundance N they have contracted marriages with the Arkanzas, and seem inclined to make a permanent settlement and incorporate. themselves with that nation. The number is une known, but is considerable and is every day increasing. On the river St. Francis, in the neigh- bourhood of New Madrid, Cape Guar- deau, Riviere arla Pomme, and the en- virons, are settled a number of vaga-: bonds, emigrants from the Delaware, Shawnese, Miamis, Chickasaws, Cher- okees, Prorias, and supposed to consist in all of five hundred families they are at times troublesome to boats descend- ing the river, and, have even plun- dered some of them and committed a few murders. They are attached to liquor, seldom remain long in any place, many of them speak English, allunderstand it, and there are some who even read and write .4 At St. Genevieve in the settlement among the whites there are about thirty. Piorias, Kaskias, and Illinois, who sel- dom hunt for fear of the other Indians they are the remains of a nation which fifty years ago could bring into the field one thousand two, hundred warriors. On the Missouri. On the Missouri and its waters are many and numerous nations, the best known of which are The Osages, situ- ated on the river of the same name on the right side of the Missouri, at about eighty leagues from its confluence with it they consist of one thousand warri- ors, who live in two settlements at no great distance from each others They are of a gigantic stature and well proper- tioned, are enemies of the whites and of all other indian nations, and commit der predations from the Illinois to the Arkan- zas. The trade of this nation is said to be under an exclusive grant. They are a cruel and ferecious race, and are hat, ed and feared by all the other Indians. The confluence of the Osage river with the Missouri is about eighty leagues from the Mississippi. Sixty leagues higherup the Missouri, and on the same bank, is the river Kan- zas, and on it the nation of the same name, but at about seventy or eighty leagues from its mouth. It consists of +There are, besides the foregoing, at least 4 or 500 families of Choctaws, who are dispersed on the West side of the Mississippi, on the Ouacheta and Red River, as far. West as Natchitoches, and the whole nation would have emig- rated across the Mississippi had it not been for the opposition of the Spaniards and the Indians on that side who had suffered by their aggressions. diff --git a/textract_ocr/57453_layout_extracted.txt b/textract_ocr/57453_layout_extracted.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..61099767ea616dfbade1c8e26ae44b047f58c8a7 --- /dev/null +++ b/textract_ocr/57453_layout_extracted.txt @@ -0,0 +1,35 @@ +ought to be provided for by law, and that they report by bill or otherwise.

Mr. Lyon then submitted the follow- ing resolution: Resolved, That provision ought to be madé by law, forbidding all transfers of rights of action, and of all monies and other property either real or personal to or by any subject of the crown of Great- Britain, and also forbidding any citizen or resident in the U. paying any debt or demand to any such subject. Mr. Lyon, on offering this resolution, observed that he had understood that Mr. Ershine, the British minister had recently transferred stock possessed by his father to a large amount in the A. merican funds. He said he considered this as a strong indication of hostility on the part of England towards this country. le-expressed the opinion that Britain had in numerous instances so infracted the treaty between the two countriesthat it could no longer be considered as obli- gatory on the U. S. who consequently possessed the moral right of declining. on her part, to respect those stipulations, whose observance might be injurious to her, He said that he thought it became the U. S. in the present state, of affairs, to hold such pledges as she possessed'a- gainst the acts of injustice which might be committed by Britain, and that by a- dopting this resolution, she would retain in her hands the means of indemnity, in case such acts should be committed and if they should not, no injury could en- sue from its adoption. A universal sentiment was unreser- vedly expressed that'such a step at this time was improper. Not single mem- ber supported the resolution; but all censured its imprudence. The general opinion was that if persisted in by the mover, the doors should be instantly o. pened, and the resolution rejected in public. Mr. Lyon' then withdrew the resolution, and the galleries were opèn- ed under the understanding that all se- crecy was at an end. The foregoing contains, we believe, faithful statement of the substance of the discussion, if such indeed it can be call- ed. More cannot be expected. +THE STAR a London paper. +It may not be amiss to observe, that this paper has been uniformly opposed to America; and ever since the affair of the Chesapeake, has breathed hostility on all our demands for satisfaction while other English prints have advoca- ted the cause of the American govern- +It was from the STAR we copied the Inte alarming news relative to the pros- pect of a failure of our negociations with that country it is from this paper of the 28th of September, we copy the following remarks on the late inter- diet of the Dutch government.

Mr. Ralston calculates that he has averaged a profit of 14 per cent. upon his dis- bursements. This, of itself, is not bad; but when it is considered that his expen- ditures will hereafter be less, and the quantity of work done much greater, still better profits may be reasonably an- ticipated. And we trust that such a handsome reward will attend his enter- prize, as will emboldemothers to follow his example. New-Jersey abounds with excellent scites for such establishments, and we hope in a few years to see more of them occupied in such honour- able, and profitable undertakings. +It is reduced to a certainty, that cotton goods can be made as good (it may safely be said better) and as hand- some in this country as in England, and likew cheaper. For as the cotton it- self is taken from here there, and the goods brought from there here, at a great expense for freights, insurance, duties, &c. the saving in these respects by its being manufactured here, will exceed the saving there by the lower price of labour. So that nothing is wanting to put a stop to the importation of these goods from Europe, but the establish- ment of such a number of manufactories here as will satisfy the demand. +" Mr. Ralston at present manufac- tures cottonfustians, dimities, cassimers, checks, stripes, bedticking, counterpanes, yarn of all sizes, twisted and untwisted, &c. &cc. and those goods are in such de- mand, that he can furnish but a very small part of what is wanted. +" The manufacture of coach lace, Sec. is also carried on by Mr. Ralston to con- siderable extent, and with good encou- ragement. This article, for which a few years ago we were entirely dependent on foreign hands, is now made in this coun- try so well, and in such quantities, as to meet the great and increasing demand. " The manufacture of woollen goods Mr. Raiston is just embarking in, and +The wonderful effect of ingenuity, in constructing labour-saving machine- ry, is perhaps no where more astonish- ing than in a cotton factory.

Three hundred spin- dles are employed at once in spinning, and the other parts of the machinery in proportion-In his weave-shops, Mr. Ralston has introduced the spring shut- tle, the great superiority of which none can imagine but such as see it used." +Norfolk Committee.-The committee appointed by the citizens of Norfolk & Portsmouth, to carry into effect their resolutions for preventing the British vessels off Hampton from being furnish- ed with supplies at that place, have dis- played an energy and intrepidity which well became the occasion. The measures recommended by the committee appear to have been acquiesced in by the citi- zens generally; and a continuance of them is now required by the President's proclamation. The numerous meetings which have been held in different parts of the United States, have applauded the manly and patriotic conduct of the the people of Norfolk, Hampton, & the vicinity. +On the 25th of June, Col. Hamilton, the British consul at Norfolk, addressed a letter to Gen. Mathews, chairman of the committee, inquiring whether the schooners which had been used as ad- vice boats, would be permitted to pass and repass between the port and the British squadron as before, without in- terruption; and whether there was any objection to himself or any of his fami- ly visiting the squadron in such boats as might be allowed to carry his corres- pondence, or whether they might go by land to the bay side, and go out and re- turn in the ships' boats. Gen. Mathews replied, that the schooners could not be permitted to pass and repass as before, but that he might communicate with the ships in either of the modes he had mentioned. +On Friday the 26th, a British officer was observed leaving one of the schoon- ers which had attended the English ves- sels, and proceeding up the river, in a boat, for the British consul's. Several +has no doubt of furnishing such as may be safely thrown into the same market with the best imported. +of +boats put off, and when two of them had reached the boat carrying the officer, a flag of truce was hoisted on board the schooner. Apprehending violence, or that the officer might be detained, the consul claimed for him the protection of the civil authority & of the flag of truce, and he was permitted to depart.-On the same day the committee met and re- solved unanimously, that the officer not having hoisted a flag before his approach to the harbour, he was not entitled to its protection; and that he should not have been discharged until the pleasure of the government was known and that any British officer who might afterwards come up, should be detained. The com- mittee appointed two of their number to ascertain the best means of establishing a telegraphic communication with the shore. One of the members informed the committee that a number of young gentlemen had instructed him to offer their services for the erection of batte- ries for the defence of Norfolk & Ports- mouth the committee directed their thanks to be given to those persons, with an intimation that the time was not dis- tant when they would have an opportu- nity to display their zeal. +By tire evening of the 28th, the com- mittee had received information from various sources, that the British had me- naced Hampton with an invasion for the purpose of obtaining water: the commit- tee therefore resolved, that application should be made to capt. Decatur, com- mander of the naval force, requesting him to avail himself of the services of the officers and men who had volunteer- ed, and equip the gun boats, in order to co-operate with the people of Hampton in preventing the execution of the threat. +On the 29th the committee revoked the permission given to the British con- sul to correspond with the British squa- dron. A letter from col. Sharpe (pro- bably the colonel of the militia) was laid before the committee, who thereupon resolved that it was highly expedient to repair fort Norfolk, and mount guns there for the defence of the place, and that the inhabitants be requested to give all their aid for that purpose. +On the 30th the committee appointed three of their number toexamine the ma- gazine, and obtain a correct account of the powder in the borough, the proprie- tors thereof, and the market price of that article. It was resolved that the public exigence required the keeping in pos- session every mean of defence
