FOR THE DELAWARE GAZETTE. 'M. Mr. Editor, s Your establishment of a republican paper must give pleasure to cvety republican. The long period that has elapsed since the publicu lion of a paper in this state, devoted to the ad «1 /i vancement of pure republicanism, has, unques tionably, been the means ol" the great federal 11 * i influence that at present exists. It is time that sound and pun; principles be disseminated among the worthy and independant yeomen ol Delaware ; let us;] ien hail the commencement m '* of your paper as the epoch of republican Iege- i iteration in this state—and convince our great I sister states that we are not unworthy of asta tion in the ranks of democracy. No more wiil the calumnies with which the federal presse have for years teemed, pass uncontradicted, unrefuted—let federalism hid adieu to the sys tem of gulling and trapping which so success of Hilly has been practised on the unsuspecting peasantry of the state. The tales of " French influence, Two millions of dollars," Etc. ti have passed by, and all the talents of tue country" appear to be employed, if we may judge by their silence, in the coinage of some new tale which in its turn is to run through the channels of filth 'till some other bantling is produced by the wise men of the East."— Thus, Sir, passes their calumnies, generation generation, each gradually rising, till by on its accumulated weight, the " Babel" of fede 1 ralism tumbles to the " Tomb of the Capulets" there to rest unlamented, whilst proud repub licanism, toweling like the eagle, spreads its doctrines over unhappy EUROPE.

FEDERAL CLAIMS To the merit oj the arrangement with Brit ain. Extract from a speech of Mr Fisk in the House of Representatives May ol But there was one other remark, and the gentleman urged it as though he was really seiious. Although among the lust he made, it was not the least ex ta iniina ry. I had heard it made before I came to this House, Gut thought it war, intended merely to answer electioneering purposes, and not believed by those who made it. It was to this effect 1 that the present prospect, so fair, was the result of the ex ertions of the minority in this ccuntr) and particularly in Congress, I.CVCJ did believe that gentlemen who ilainico this as due to tiie exertions of the initiai i ty were or could be serious ; and when i heard it thrown out un the floor since, r could not but remind me of the fly placet, on ihe chariot wheel, exclaiming, •* Lo J ivhnt a dust rue files make /" it is real ly surprizing io me, and I am v. 1121;>2 to G confess it, though it may not be novel to those, (and there are many) who have more experience in legislation than I have, how a minority can comroul the majority.

It is repugnant to the very meaning of tin term f minority) in the English language For a moment let me ask you, sir, wua. system did they adtise? Even the las measure adopted on tbe subject of our for eign relations,viz, the non-intercourse law, was opposed by them ; and really, among the comparisons with which the gemlemui f:nm Virginia enlightens the members of this House, 1 re-collect one in rela ion to that kid, in which he said that it remin ded him of the man who had invented a mode td • letting off his gun by degrees." He not only disapproved the measure bui ridiculed it. Who adopted the measure, sir ? Who, had it proved d.sastinus, would have been called to account for it ? 1 he Minority ? No sir ; tbe majority. In ah popular governments and assemblies die re will be minorities. 'I here were minorid. s in our révolution ; but after our indepen dence was atcheived, we did not hear them claim the honor of it. There was a minor ity iu the convention of tbe United Stales, but we have not heard this minority say that it was owing to their exertions that this charter of our liberties was adopted. Really, sir, as it strikes my mind, an argu ment of this kind, scarcely merits an at tempt at serious refutation. Let me ask, sir, did the minority elect Mr Jefferson ? Dili they oi the protestors elect Mr Mail - son ? The gentleman sa«l, I recollect, that he does not consider the President as the administration—Do the minority consii tute it then ?

But, Edwin, 'tevas thine, thine the blessing-fraught lot, To call this perfection of beauty thy own ; To hail her the mistress of thee and thy cot, And leave other shepherds their fortune to moan. And well did thy merits, most id-fated youth, Deserve this lov'd maiden, for thee set apart, i, like her's, was all fondness and truth ; Whose bas«* Whose passion, like Mary's, arose from the heart. •curse on war, wheresoever it be 1 — But war * I'was dus tore the ' -»utb from her tender embrace, f\vas this forc'd her Edwin afar o'er the sea, And left the tear trickling adown lier sweet face !

Captain Hague ofthe ship Paragon sailed from Lisbon on the 7th June, and informs us that the news of the surrender of Oporto to the English, whereby a French army of 25,000 troops were made prisoners, reached Lisbon on the 1st. of June; and that in consequence thereof, the B"itish merchants, 8cc. who had It ft Oporto previous to the French taking posses sion of it were returning. It was also reported, that the Aus trians, had obtained a comph te vic tory over the French, in which the latter lost 25.000 men, including the killed, wounded and prisoners A considerable force of cavalry ar rived at Lisbon on the 2d June from England, destined for the interior of Portugal; and it was supposed they would proceed to Spain. The Bri tish and Spaniards were using every exertion to clear the country of the French, and it was supposed they would oompleatly effect that object, calculating that Austria would find sufficient employment fot the army of Bonaparte. It was also reported at Lisbon that Russia had DECLARED WAR AGAINST FRANCE. Captain Johnson of the ship Caro line from Cadiz, informs us that he had a Seville Gazette, which he un derstood contained the Russian dccla ration of war, but that lie was board eel on his passage by a British frigate, and gave it to the boarding officer. A British brig of war had arrived at Lisbon from Malta, and brought advices that on the 15th oi April a se on the Tyro! battle was fought vere and French ; between the Austrians that the advanced gnard of the Ans trinn army consisting ot 35.000 men. pulsed b> the French ar was twice re under command my of 50.000 men of prince Eugene Beauharnois ; that the archduke John came up with a de reserve of 20.000 men, and corps entirely defeated the French, who lost 20,000 killed, wounded, and ta the wounded ken prisoners ! among was Eugene Beauharnois.

XI)e dSa3ette, Wilmington , July 12 , 18 .■ IQ" In consequence of the indisposition oi one of the workmen, and the impossibility ol nrocuring temporary assistance, the attention if the Edi'or has been almost exclusively en ,raged, for a week past, in attending to the me c anical duties of the office. This circumstance lias prevented him from paying that attention to Ins out-doors business which be should oth erwise have done, and he hopes will be a suf ficient apology for his not waiting on some gentlemen and writing to others in di fièrent parts of the state, wiio have interested them selves in behalf of this establishment. Gen tlemen who hold subscription papers are re quested to make returns without delay. Sub scribers in town who may not have receive!! their papers will have the goodness to send for them to the office. Federalism. —It is our decided opinion, and we shall, by occasional essavs on the subject, endeavor to prove it well founded, that a party exists in this country, who, un der the imposing name of Federalists, or friends to our representative system of go vernment, are endeavoring to sap the very foundation of those institutions which they 1 role's so much to admire. In endeavor ing to expose the nefarious views of this party we shall exclude from any participa tion in their guilt a large portion of the yeomanry of this country, who, in the ho nest simplicity of their hearts, have been induced to give that credit to plausible pro fessions which was due to virtuous actions alone, To this honest class of citizens we particularly address ourselves ; for fno' many of them may have imbribed strong prejudices, which may he readily accounted for without in the smallest degree impeach ing their motives, we are well satisfied that it is ever their wish to he open to convic tion, and, when convinced, that they will not, from false pride or obstinancy, persist in the error of their ways, If, in endea voring to remove their prejudices, we dis couver our own, we trust they will do the same justice to our intentions that we are disposed to do to theirs. That the leaders of the Federal party so called, entertain an undue partiality in fa vor of English manners, i customs, and, some of them, even form ol government we conscientiously believe. That they used every artifice during Mr. Adams's ad ministration to drag us into a war with I France and an alliance with Great Britain is abundantly manifest from the writings <7 Mr. Adam, of which we shall say more hereafter j and their systematic opposition to Mr. Jefferson's administration was in •ended, no doubt, to coerce him into a de grading accommodation with Kngland and war with France. We trust we have neither prepossession in favor of, nor pre judice against, either France or Great br ain. We rely on the disinterestedfriend ship of neither of them, and belies e our policy is to preserve a strict and guarded neutrality with them Loth. This polity has evidently been pursued by our govern ment, and so far has succeeded in r>-< S' rv ing to us the blessings of peace. We sin cerely wish for a good understanding with Great Britain, but not at the expence of a war with France. It is our interest to lie at peace with both, and it is not less their interests to be at peace with us. No real American would wish our present happy form of government po htudé.y a connection with either Knglaiul or France, and every true republican must fioni his heart detest the mat , or set of men, who would wish to deprive us of those inestimable privileges which wete purchased by the best blond of our countrymen. That a number of the had ing characters of the party called Federal, have uniformly, been stronger advocates for the British form of government than for mir own is a fact which cannot I deni ed. When the convention of the United States were in si ssion, debating upon a phi of government for the States, Alexander Hamilton, who was long acknowledged as tlie head of the party, advi t and very warm ly the erection of a monarchy. He has since frequently declared, in ihe most ur: qualified terms, that "a public debt is a public blessing," —which, in other words, means that ih» poor and laboring classes of the community .ought to be taxed out ot their substance, to support (lie prid- aud pamper the luxury of lordling stock holders. In the debate upon the ratification of Jay's British 'Treaty, a number of the U suing federalists advocated the monsirou and. abominable doctrine, ihat a whole state■ or anv number of stall s short of a majority, might he ceded by treaty to a foreign nation ' Thus, according to this duerriu . by the concurrence of a corrupt ambassador, and a federal presi lent and sen.i e, the state of Massachusetts, and anv otlu r se veil states, might be ceded to Gnat bri :am, on condition of her appointing 77/no. thy Pikering to rule over them. 1 hat the object of the'leaclers of this party has uni formly been hostility to Use Unit m tine, op. position to the laws is evbley their conduct, both in and out of ; - g produce thC~f,,f cases in point, we owing extracts from their memorials, resoluuo mis, &c. which have been announced in tin f c - deral presses ironi one e extreme of the Uni on to the other. as worthy of all imitation.

Our hope anti consolation rest with the legislature of our state, to whom it is competent to devise means of re lief against unconstitutional measures of the ge neral government.— That your powers are adé quate to tlie object is evident front the rguni ration of the confederacy/ /" Who, reading the foregoing extract, on would suppose tlie authors of it to be sub jects ol the only free representative govern ment in the world. The laws of which thev complain were sanctioned by an imposing majority of the immediate représentatif es ol the people, and an attemp' to oppose the will ofthat majority was striking at the very vitals of republicanism, But if this conduct be so very reprehensible in indivi duals, what must we think of a party who could give the following sentiments the sanction of a legislative name.

FOR THE DELAWARE GAZETTE. It is truly laughable to hear the tale of " French influence" raised by Federalists to blast the well earned honor and reputation of tiie late administration, and contrast with the hypocritical, flattering cant, bestowed in the form of praise on Mr. Madison, one ^of the members of that administration, u4io,-while occupying a seat at the council board of Mr. Jefferson, received an ample share of federal abuse. The charge of being a dependant ol conjured up in the character of a France, Can an edi French citizen, is not forgotten, tor, who walks ^trough society and asserts a claim to honesty, have so little regard to his not to blush at assertions, own feelings, as which among mankind would be sufficient so to stamp liai on his brazen front as to destroy forever confidence in him? Can political opi nions so change, so alter the noblest, best and most exalted feelings df the heart, that the man, who, with the utmost sang fluid will suf fer the epithet of political scoundrel to pass unnoticed, would, divested ol that locality, like a gentleman run any one through who would intimate aught against nis fair name? If this is honor, this the character of Gentlemen Federalists—I thank my God that I am a he By whom is the a-d low born democrat. sad lament raigecl«? Is it by men, who, from pure disinterested motives, anxiously watch over the republic? .No. Is it by the war-worn veterans, whose blood washed the plains of Columbia in her struggle? No. Who then are the wretches that basely hope to tarnish the bright honors of the author df the Declaration of Independence ? They are those, who, " would rather be a dog and bay at the moon than own themselves Americans." British hirelings, your true disciples of Cobbet and Fenno, possessing neither probity nor truth— British incendiaries, who, like the midnight assassin, enters the peaceful dwelling of sn honest man at the dead hour of night dealing death and destruction around him ; whose ghastly grin betokens his secret delight at be holding in one burning mass the accumulated labour and the saving industry of his honest and independant victims. Such are the au thors, and such, 1 almost said the believers, of the unfounded calumny. To enter into an examination of the charge would lengthen this piece beyond the limits of an ordinary commu nication, Mr. Editor. On this subject you will again hear from T. T. Federalism all aback .—It is amusing to look at the contortions of federalism in va rious parts of the United States. As it is impossible for any man of candour to find fault with Jefferson and Madison, and as the majority in favor of their administra tions commues daily to increase, it is ex pected that the leaders of federalism will set their wits to work to conjure up some new phantom with which to alarm the peo ple. Previous to Mr. Jefferson's election, religion was made the stalking-horse for federalism to halt upon. We were told that if Mr. JeffersoD should be chosen, re ligion and morality would inevitably perish. It was said that he would tear down all the meeting-houses, execute all the priests, and make a huge funeral pyre of all the bibles, psalters and psalm-books in the country, Notwithstanding these bloody-bone stories, parson Spring is yet allowed to fulminate, al)( ] jj ri Bramble to blow his blasts ol fana iical fury. Nay, so entirely unrestrained are they, that if'they were even to toast » the Pope and the D —they would come with impunity.-It cannot be denied that some of our meeting-houses have been torn ( j ()W n, hut it has been for the purpose of building more elegant, commodious and spacious ones in their places. When we view our streets on Sunday ando'os rve the mu hi U tde devoutly going to meetiug, we cannot but confess that religion was never j n a , T , ore flourishing condition than at pie senft () ur tabernacles were never mote fully attended, nor the ministers more hand sointly supported. So much tor federal predictions concerning Mr. Jefferson's hos tility to religion and morality. A little while previous to Mr. Madison's election, we were told that he was a para I s ; te 0 f Bonaparte, and a member of the Legion of Honor. It was said that Madi- son had affirmed that " France wanted mo- ney, and we must give it to hek 1" But as ' soun as he had completed the settlemen i w i t h England, he was changed, in th • twinkling of an eye.' He was no longe r die fViend of Bonaparte, but the staunch adherent of John Bull. Madison however remains the same. He studies the inter est of the United States and observes an impartial conduct toward European nations. He will not be intimidated by the cry of French influence, however boisterous the Pickering Junto may be in raising it : but will continue the true American course, regardless of the clamorous taction. It appears, trom all the information which can be obtained, that it was the determina tion of the Junto to keep up this cry agains '1 his w as the monster un Mr. Madison. der whose auspices they were to act. 1 hey had begun to thrum upon this string, some Since the late time before he was chosen. adjustment with England, however it has been totally suppressed until very lately but we now find that it is renewed in the The people must N.

The very important disclosures Blade by this gentleman in a series of letters lutel-y-pyblished J. in the Boston Patriot have justly drawn lorth general attention, admiration and applause.— He unravels many points and traits ni lus ad ministration ; the intrigues of Hamilton, Pick ering, and the rest of the British parttzails in his cabinet ; their endeavours to plunge us m to war witii France, and draw us into an alli ance with England, his resistance, their disap pointment, and the subsequent attack made upon him by Alexander Hamilton—these ami other schemes he unfolds in the most foi cible, The ascerulen sprightly and candid manner, cy of the British faction had cast Mr. Adams Thea'Unand into the shade of unpopularity, sedition bills drew him into odium. When we read the perpetual struggles he made against them : when we hear him declare he was wea ry of office, and would have resigned it to get rid of them—we are compelled to pity him we once abhorred, ami to declare, that John Adame, though greatly misled in some instances, was always correct in his intentions. We anticipate the most happy results from To unmask the British faction, these papers, is to overthrow it. If John Adams should over turn the F.ssex Junto, by tile patriotic deed and discoveries, he will have earned a mans i leum—he will attract everlasting graiitttd .

Fr< The Austrians, in their march, met, in go, Sassille, a French army of 35,000 men commanded by the Vice Hoy Eugene the B-auharnois, and the general of brigade Gtllet, with 80 pieces of artillery, which, together with the reinforcement brought by general Cervelloni, who came from Ita Iv with 15,000 men, making a total of 50, 000 men. The Austrians, commanded by Arch Duke John, commenced the attack ing with an army of 35,000 men, and wete twice obliged to fall back ; but, having bee n mined by 20,000 men from the Tyrol, from to Seravate, and Ceneda, of infantry and ca to valry, attacked the French armu, in the rear. The French srmv, wa* tbGs placed between two fires. The battle lasted the whole dav of the lGth. The French after losing a great number of men, abandoned the field to the victorious Austr.uns— scarcely 15,000 men escaped, whose re treat was favored by the conflagration of the village lloneo, which they set on fire to favor their retreat. The loss of the ene my was in killed, wounded aud prison ers, upwards of 20.000 men.-The Vice Roy was wounded, and Genrtal Serras was made prisoner, with a number of officers of rank. The Italian regiment called Velites laid down their arms, bat were afterwards compelled by the French covalry, to take them up again.

Letters from Rivas of the 28th ult. men tion that General Cuesta had advanced his head quai tet s ftonr Monasterio, to Fuente del Maestre. The Dutch papers mention about a 1 at tic in Polonia, Archduke Ferdinand com manded there ; but say nothing of its result, convincing proof that the French were a defeated, and it is believed that Warsovta had fallen into his hands. We learn from Seville, that it is certain, that peace has been made between Russia and England, and that Russia has entered into the coalition against the grand usurper of Europe With impatience, we expect a confii (nation, as we have good reason to give credit to tins news, which is given by Aiava, who had arr ived at Seville.

In the preceding columns will be found a detailed account of the successes of the Austrians in Italy.— Since it was in type we have seen French statements of some of the same transactions, which give them a very different colouring. From a careful compa rison of dates and circumstances we are inclined to believe the Austrian account very mu oh exaggerated, In speaking of the engagement on tiie Tyrol the 16th of April, the French barely state tha» a part of their tnops gave battle to the Austrian army. That the battle commenced at nil f'clock in the morning, and was very obstinately maintained on both sides.

The records of the court shew, that, by order of the Levy Coujt,'suits were brought by the then county Treasurer for a balance' reported to be in the hands of the col lector of tux for 17 Ö 7 8c 1789. Had the rules of law been as ligidly enforced on the collector and deputy as they exercised their power over the property of respectable farmers of this county, they would not have been permitted to retain some thousands ,in their pockets for twenty years, without even paying one cent of the intercut. The advertisements of this county. collector for sales of freeholders property are recollected by many of the citizens of the coun ty. "One of the people" enquires, why are those suits not brought to issue, anti the money flaut into the hands of the Treasurer to meet the //resting demands on him Ÿ Since those suits were brought the then treasurer has been removed by the Levy Court ; the members of the then Levy Court have been all changed ; the new Treasurer, perhaps, may not have considered it his duty without a special order of the court to press those suits ; the Levy Court being composed of new members, one of whom was deputy and security of the collector who had been sued, the court may have been induced, from motives of delicacy to their brother com missioner, to adopt the new mode of raising money by resolution, in older to build the bridge over the Appoquimnvuk creek and re pair the Brandywine bridge at 'Wilmington. This mode was more convenient for the col lector and his deputy than for to draw out'ol their packets the fundi of the county which have been unjustly detained for near twenty years. i nis same collector and his deputy hate bo clainorous about publie improvements, route and, in particular, a bridge over the Christiana veek at Newport, which has been contemplât . i d to be ei'.c.ed at the expense of the county, in the same manner as other public bridges are m tde and maintained. This bridge would be a considerable accommodation to the inhabi tants of Christiana, Mill, reck, Brandywine and New Ca-t'e hundreds, and can and would lie e lecteJ without any additional lax on the citi zens of the county. The interest on the ba lance of tax in the hands of the collector, as reported to he due, will complcat a handsome bridge at Newport ; Ltr it may be observed by some that the application ofthc inte re. i of this debt due upon taxes, collected twenty j s ago, would be au innovation, and mat tins could l i 'slaMishmcnts ol only be done by derangin retaining the public money without interest. In order that the public taxes may be applied to the public uses provided lor by law, tlie ci tizens of the county ought ever to be w itclil in the selection for public suivants. Consider sustained by inattention able injury has been to the appointment of members ol the general Assembly ScLevy Court coinmissitmeis. Pub lic credit suffers by plursngjn the hands of men of desperate fortunes tiie collection ofthc pub ic dues. It is to he hoped that the citizens cd tlie county will be on their guard, and let no ile; i; hypocrite ever have a place in our leg's!; fare and Levy Court ticket ; and 1 tlo hope that at next session of the legislature, the General A s sembly will make some further provision re specting the public taxes, so as to insure the punctual payment at the reasury m a more summary mode than at present. A FARMER. SECRETS WORTH KNOWING. It is observed by the Plebian, that the letters of the late President Adams to the Editor of the Boston Patriot are ot the highest interest to the American public. A It is satisfactorily disclosed by Mr. dams, that as early as the period oi ' ms ac self-created cession to the presidency, a was formed, with and irresponsible junto and control the design secietly so overawe not only the acts ol the executive depart ment, but also the legislative brunch of go vernment.—I liât Alexander Hamilton as at the head of this Junto ; which em ■V braced Timothy Picketing, bisher Ame», and many othets 1 er tiled " leading men' in the federal party. Thai the o! je cis of this junto were ho. f the coun i.le to the peace and liberties 11 >'• That the c party violence' and political which distinguished the peii persecutions oi of Mr. Adams's administration, were - excited by Hamilton more than any oth '.•r man . 5 'i hat this junto entertained a cordial ' hatred for every man VV HO HAD LA BORED AND SUFFERED EARLY ;ind ol IN THE REVOLUTION— course for their political sentiments— sen liments, which gave birth to our glorious I revolution. „ , , , ,, That Mr. Hamilton, (backed probauly by what Mr. Adams calls h\a privy coun cillors) actually had the consummate ei ■frontery to send to the executive ' a whole system of instructions for the conduct oi the President, the Senate and House oi Representative's.' mbraced the alien and That this system e sedition laws and political last measures subseqhendy adopted. . _. f That it contemplated an army ot rilty Thousand Men, and a tax upon every ar tide not yet taxed by government, to sup vvitich in return purt this enormous army would be able to enforce the collection of hese taxes, should the people become re fractory. 1 hat the institution of the embassy to France which alTeued a treaty with that nation, met with an indecorous and deter mined opposition from the junto ; which evinced on that occasion a fixed resolution to effect a war with France and an alliance with Great Brilai t. And. 1 hat in their endeavors to t fleet these points, they were zealously aided by British presses botii in England and America, and by American presses under the controul of British agents. Such are sortte of the most important facts disclosed by Mr. Adams. Although much is said of the Jolly and datage of the writer not even an attempt has been made to disprove any ol his allegations. Indeed such an attempt might be imprudent, as it would probably lead to disclosures still more unplesant to thejumo. Mr. Adams, iu these publications, has in a great measure exonerated himself from the blame which was attached to his con duct on account of the obnoxious measures ol his administration. The measures ori ginated witli Hamilton and his privy coun cillors, a self created iunto, and were car ried into effect by means the most wicked and despicable. If vve recall to mind the artifices which were adopted by this junto to induce the venerable patriot to embrace their system of measures '. the fulsome a dulaiion which was paid to his person, and the intrigues and artifices practised upon hint by the members of his cabinet coun cil—it is matter of surprise that bis firm ness and patriotism were proof against these combined attacks. The justice which Mr Adams has done to the ' genius, learning,' and patriotism of M'. Jefferson, of which ' an animate friend ship for five arid twenty years* has given him a most exalted opinion ; and ill* hand some compliment which he pavs to " the fine talents and ainta.'le qualities and man ners of Mr. Madison"—while they afford an honorable instance of candor and mag nanimity in ap il.tical adversary infinitely ou weigh all the slanders against these statesmen who have been piopr, galet throunh the Biuish and junto pn pn • All oui readers must recollect the strange British, iu keeping op so conduct ot tne _ armed lone at Ilalafax several l uge an mouths since, while tile Federalists were so lustily deprecating the embargo, and so vi olent in their measures uf opposition to go vernment. The mystery, we arc informed, is about to be developed, and the fact de monstraied, that a gang of villains in the United States had actually made something like an arrangement with Great Britain lor a sevciance of the Union . lor obtaining ' protection under her cannon' as Coleman advised, and for declaring war against France, as the Federal governor ot Massa chusetts recommended. Balt. Ev. Post.. Tiie ' British party in America' begin to IVar they have praised Mr. Madison 100 much. So formidable was the name cj y rjjarson to their unholy design of redu cing our country to vassalage and slavery, a thaï, to destroy his reputation, they most unsautimoniously began to praise Madison. The business turus out precisely as the re publicans expected—tbe rules of conduct of these two illustrious men are found to be the same ; and the probability now is that Mr. Madison will lie at decently blackguard ly the gsntlemen-toriäs iu a few months, May he ah as ever Mr. Jefferson was ibid. ways be hated by knaves.

The leader of the small but turbulent party, vvas Alexander Hamilton, an alien. By his death, Messieurs Pickering oi and Gore have been promoted to the high oi est ranks in this faction—and may now be considered as the chiefs and head-men ol The articles of their tlie British junto, creed, or what may with propriety may be be stiled the Federal Rale of Three, are tlie following :—" Subserviency to Britain, ha ar tred to France and contempt for the United Bast. Chron. »> States. ■It has ornn ••,»tl; reniait., d that r »•», sea son brings wi'h it an ohlig ion to the pet form attce of particular duties, The remark holds equally true of communities and individuals. I he period of war or revolution calls for ardor of feeling and energy of conduct; while that of tranquil and peaceable times reouires se dattliess and an industrious' pursuit oi the ordi nary avocations of life, The happy versatility ol the human character admits oi an eaii)' Uuu b!t:on from onj of these extremes to the other ; and, at least for a time, the animation and ex criioii oi war seem to a fiord as much delight as the calm of peace. I here is, consuq lentiy. but little difficulty in creating or maintaining a nation a temper accommodated to cither in of these situations. J he great difficulty is to graduate th p natt onul pulse to an intermediate state of things, which, neither demanding the noise or exer tion of war, nor satisfied with the security oi peace, requires a state of mind the must diffi cult ol acquisition ; a state of mind, under the dominion ol which the arts of peace shall be actively cultivated with a scrupulous vigilance against the dangers that may beset them; a state of mind which though full of hope is not devoid of fear, and which shall, at the same time, dictate a pursuit of ordinary avocation, without relapsing imo a security which may prove fatal. Such, it may be confidently assumed, is our present situation. The sun lias pierced the '•ark clouds t^lnch lately hung over us; bu; whether it wi I continue to enlighten us with a steady ray, or whether new clouds will arise to obscure our tuture prospects, may be con sidered as very uncertain. The promises of Great Britain are fair. T ,ey as ought to induce us to hope for eve are sue ry thing. But wnile we entertain this best feeling oi an honest heart, let us shield our selves with a spirit that is prepared for events, whatever they may be. The fuel is, that wliiie the woi Id continues in its present troubled s ale, every (Gy may be experte» to bring with it a new vicissitude. Ardently as we may strive to withdraw oafst-lves from its collisions, we are i tne great family of mankind, and can a pa 11 not, by any prudence on our part, avoid parti cipating inure or less in the evils that helal it. Besides, it will be almost a iniiacle to re main lor any length ol time on an equally good footing with I 1 ranee and England. The niani lest alien of the good will ol one n aluiobi oi' it sell sufficient t , produce the enmity of the find the activai or pmbahle hostility of mill.: cf» lu. ; Guild tench us the duty ol maintaining • til il!ljM'it\| ittitude. • til il!ljM'it\| ittitude. It is, p ■ d.ly, to these considerations that the measures of the a'.e ses v.c are to ov; sit'd of Conj.,i ; or rallier their abstinence from the adopts n of measures, which, how by ever,' desirable in periods of profound peace, might, and, it is likely, would have had a per nicious effect on our foreign relations, While that body have honorably passed the necessary acts to carry tne pacific arrangements of the President into effect, they have refused to make any relaxation in their measures <>f defence a gainst eventual danger. They have wisely considered the expenditure of a few millions as an atom compared with the maintenance of peace, the security of our rights, and the pre servation of our honor. They have, there fore, neither reduced the army or the navy, or, indeed, relaxed a single defensive measure a dopted the last winter. On the contrai y , they have added to those measures, by the liberal appropriation of seven lit n b ed and fifty thou sand dollars lor fortifying our ports ami har bours. It is almost a work of supererogation to say a word in justification of a policy, the conect ness of winch has been scarcely questioned in or out of Congress. But, to test its correct ness, two enquiries may lie addressed to tin. mind of every intelligent reader, w hose solu tion must he conclusive. However probable, is it cirtain that vve shall obtain ffioiri G Britain an observance of oar maritime rrglits ? if the event should he otherwise, and the strong arm of net' power should be imposed upon us, who Would not condemn the infatu ated credulity and wretched parsimony, that, regardless of every admonition of experience, took promises for acts, and to save a little mo ney jeopardised the whole vvealth of the.nation ? Such has been the course pursued by the go vernment, a course which every good man will rejoice to see crowned with the general appro bation of the nation. The government has done its duty. Let the people do theirs. Let Let them support the attitude it has taken, them assume and maintain, what may be just ly denominated, an armed neutrality, f.el them do justice to the amiable sentiments ol the British government. Let them convince the world, that they sincerely wish to be on a footing of good will with all nations. Having demonstrated this, they will have the inestima ble satisfaction of having discharged every du ty which can be required of them by God or man. They will feel the proud consciousness of vit tue. They will have secured, by those happy means, their rights and peace ; or, they will be prepared, like a band of brrthers, in case of failure, to embark the collective energies of the whole nation in defence of its rights. The justice of mankind will be on their side, whose best wishes, perhaps best efforts will attend them. In manifesting this amicable feeling, two evils ought to be guarded against. In our exulta tion at an accommodation with Great Britain, we should be so guarded as to avoid inspiring opinion that, to gam u, , vt !ur will, tb ce any of our essential tighti ready to sact.fi inducing F mice to consider our dispos. non i > England as arising from hostility to her. A it is our interest, so it.ought to be oui Const, nt effort to manifest a sincere desire to he on good terms with both nations, for the jealous,, entertained by each of whom ui regard to whatever effects the other we ought to make, a due allowance. T his will go far towards im pressing both with the conviction that cur Sen timents are rigidly impartial, and that if the course we pursue towards one be different from that puisutd toward the other, it arises Solely hum their different conduct towards US ; anil, that so soon as their conduct towards tis shall become the same, our measures towa.tls them will he characterised by a like similitude. In oui j.,y, therefore, U t there be a chasten ed sobiiety.

OLD CLOWTF.R and his MARE. BY W. HOLLOWAY. OLD Clowter was a man of Kent Intent on worldly riches, Who once a-week to market rode Jn dirty boots and breeches. The mare he rode was grey with age, Toothless, and greas'd and founder'd, With outstrecht neck, and holding gait * Thro' thick and thin she flounder'd. Nor always could her master's arm With pulling hard and hauling, Like the tir'd camel—on his knees Prevent (he beast from falling. One day he jogg'cTbeside the squire Across tile fields of stubble, And though he roiled, with might and main, To save his bones from trouble, Ah! nought avai ed, his blundering steed Perplex'd by stones that truckled - Held out awhile, till in a doze Devout. y down it knuckled. When luckily of patridges Loud whizzing rose a covey, " 3e not alarmed your honour 1 ' cried Old sly-boots—lor—la love ye, This horse is worth Viia weight in gold, Sir 'tis a noble setter, And no trained dog, in all the world, Can do its business better. You saw it drop before the birds, Rose in the air above ye ? And had we then our nets at hand, We had secured the covey. Astonishing!" the squire replied, " 'Twould suit me to a tittle," Replied tiie clown, " for fifty pounds " 'Lis yours, tuo' much too little ! The bargain s struck, the cash paid down, And Clowter sacks the treasure ; "While of his Rosinante proud The squire exults past measure. But !o ! upon a future day They met, as fate would have it, When thus the squire addressed the clown, Who ready stood to brave it. ' Ho, Farmer, what a cursed jade Was that you lately sold me. But, ft,' the safety of my neck We sjit'.y should have told me. Why, .dr, I said, the clown replied, i he horse was good at falling, fiat as to trot, or walk, or stand, 1 i,ai's quite another eel .ay. nsantMOM w. ^ttfceilanjL LON ■VI - TV. T* re died jo Ab. 1805,at Gloves, nry, in Ireland, of a short At .3 Dennis Coorobe, of Ballenda nut gin, aged 117 years. The life of this remarkable riot only for its m t r i v .is -lutation, but for its exemption from most of the evils of humanity, He retained his mental and corpoi eal fac ulties in full vigor to the last.—Three weeks before his death, he walked out and home 26 miles in one day, and read the smallest print without glasses, as distinctly and easily as a boy of sixteen. Two days previous to his death, he never remembered to have had any complaint or sickness whatever, tooth.ache only excepted. The first fifty-six years of his life passed entirely free from even the tooth-ache ; having enjoyed, till then, sound teeth. After that period his teeth began to decay ; buL in the course of 15 years, a new set an peared, of which he continued in possess ion till his death. Of his mortal character, it is only 1 i recorded that he was stedfastlv an ho nest man ; sober, regular, and per fcctly upright in his deportment. His mind was naturally strong and acute not disciplined by literary education' but enriched by observation and ex -perience. He spent his life in lhe 'cultivation of the same farm, the property which he had acquired ear ly in life, and bent his attention chief ly to agriculture, in which he was generally allowed to be eminently proficient. He was one of the earlr At who introduced and propagated it * potatoe, which he cultivated fci ist seven'v v r, ?ar$. I We naturally feel some curiosity as to such a man's commerce with the other sex, and as to the posterity he leaves behind.—We are told that he He was was seven times married, With first married at the age of 21. his last wife, who survived him, he lived longer than with any of the pre vious ones, that Is, 24 years, having married her when 93 years old. In general, they were short lived, and were young women of his immediate neighbourhood. The years of his widowhood, taken together amounted to 11. All the children born to him were 48, which is, on the average, one for every two years, since the first year of his marriage. He had three sets of twins ; and his third wife bore him 11 children in 12 years His grand-children were in number 236, which is a little more than 5 to each child. His great grand chil dren amounted to 944,which is more, proportionally, than 6 to each child. He had 25 great-great-grand children, the oldest of whom is now 4 years old- Of'1253 decendants of his body, 487 survived him. By his last wife, he had 6 sons, the youngest of whom is a fine lad of 18. These facts are extracted from a register kept by the old man, of the names, births, marriages deaths, and general situation of his wives and de scendants. The keeping of this reg ister was his principal amusement ; and his descendants being scattered far and wideovei the earth, he took great pains to make the catalogue ex act and complete. It is to be hoped, thaï some curious person may rescue this document from oblivion, by committing it to the press. It must certainly lead to some very valuable inferences, as to the constitution of human bodies, and of human soci ety. HISTORICAL CURIOSITY. During the troubles in the reign of Charles I. a country girl- came to London, in search of a place, as a ser vant maid, but not succeeding she applied herself to carrying out beer from a brew house, and was one of those called tub women. The bi ew er observing a well-looking girl in tiiis low occupation, took her into his family as a servant, and after a while married her ; but he died while she was yet a young woman, and left her a large fortune. The business of the brewery was dropped, and she was recommended to Mr Hyde, as a gentleman of skill in law, to settle her husband's affairs. Hyde (who was a fier wards the Earl of Clarendon) finding the widow's fortune ve<y con. sidetable, married her. Of this mar riage there was no other issue than a daughter, who was the wife of James II. and mother of Mary and Anne, Queens of England.

Instead of allowing the Hay (says he) u to lie, as usual in most places, tor some days in the swathe after it is cut, and after wards alternately putting it up into cock and spreading it out, and tending it in the sun, which tends greatly to bleach the hay, exhales its natural juices, aud subjects it much to tiie danger of getting rain, verv and thus runs a great risk of being made good for little, I made it a general rule, if possible, never to cut hay till the grass is quite drv ; and then make the gatherers ioIIow close upon the cutters, putting it up in small cocks about three ieet high each, when new put up und ol as smalt a diameter as they can lie made to stand with ; always giving each of them a slight kind of thatch ing, by drawing a few handfuls of the hay from the bottom of the cock all around, and laying it lightly upon the lop with one of the ends hanging downward, i his 13 done with the utmost ease and expedition, and, when it is once in that state, 1 consider my hay as in a great measure out of danger ; for, unless a violent wind should arise im mediately alter [lie cocks are put up, so as to overturn them, nothing else can hurt the I have often experienced that no hay, as rain, however violent, ever penetrates into these cocks but for a little way. And if they- are dry put up, they never sit together so closely as to heat ; although they acquire a degree ol firmness, day or t wo, such in a r of being overturned as to Ire in no da _ bv wind after tlut lime, utiles* it blows a hut ru r,ne.

Warsaw, the capital of Poland, upon the approach of the archduke Ferdinand, inis been evacuated by the Frenclt. The van of the Austrian army entered that city on the 10th ult. " By an official dispatch from the Aus trian general 1 ax«-s, we learn that tiie in habitants of the Tyrol have with the utmost rnthusiam risen in favor of Austria ; and have defeated tiie Bavarian troops in sever al engagements. Two generals and about 1 7,000 Bavarians have been taken prison 11 ers. I.undo nM ay 12. The arrival of Prince Strah.-em! moved a consul, ruble pari of the anxiety which pres e I so heavily upon the public mind, in the French bulletins. Al consequence though the '.uK-my's accounts reach two days later than those transmitted to government from the Austrian armies, yet it appears that up to the 2.3d ult. the advantages on the part of the French were not only dearly bought, but were not of a decisive nature. On the 2.3d, Ho aparte and the Archduke Charles being op posed 10 eiu.ii other, the latter gained a very decided advantage at a place called d'Ahbach, where a lieutenant-general, many officers of h-gh rank, and a very considerable number of prisoners were taken.

The account on the part of the Austrians, to the date vc have mentioned, is couched in the I following terms ;— I ^ raorrlinoty to the priviledÿttl C'a j ' ' :ctu , .,/• p r „, jUv « On the 23d April, at nine in the evening, Count Ave'-sperg, Adjutant general to his lin peril !

The two Chiefs and the two armies advanced that day to comh .t each other. Success xvas on the side of the Austrians. The Generuliis simo caused the post of Abbacb, on the Lebel', to he attacked, for xvlnch he had contended the preceding evening, and he carried it. The third core of the army took I'aipont. Whilst the right wing of the Austrian army was victo rious, the enemy succeeded in getting posses sion of Echmull ; but the presence of the Ge nerallissimo soon restored order, and thus end ed a battle xvh'ch had lasted five days without interruption. VVe have in this and other pre vious affairs, taken a great number of prisoners, among whom is a Lieutenant General under the orders of Maishai Davon st. The loss on both sides has been great. We have several Générais and officers of the F.tat Major wound ed.—The first corps of the army has advanced to Hemmeneau, and touches the grand army by Abbach." The losses sustained by the French are un questionably as great as those of lier adversa lics. A division of the Austrians under the Arch duke Ferdinand, entered Poland, and the Po 20 lish troops are in motion to oppose their pro gress. The head quarteis of the Archduke Charles were at Chain on the 28th ult.— This place is 27 miles N.

This document was dated Leipsic, 2, th of A prit. heod The 3d French bulletin, is dated quarters, Burghausen, April 30th, 180p," by which it appears that the Austrians had fallen the hack across the Inn, but without molestation ; and that the French had advanced across that river ; when the Bavarians marched to Saits burg, which they took from the Austrians. The Archduke Ferdinand has taken Warsaw, ed which is his head quarters. He has, under him, 40,000 men. The A.rcluiuke Charles an has under kis command, an army or 1J0.«00 to men, independent of any losses he may have suffered in the late actions. The Austrian ar my, is in nine divisions of about 42,OuO men each. Bellegarde has the first, the Archduke Ferdinand the second, the Archduke Charles diass three, the Archduke Lewis two, the Arch duke .lohn two.

The organization of the Militia of Delaware seems, in many respects, to lie neglected by the commander in chief. It' its well known that there are two lull troops of horse in the 1st Brigade, and conse quently are hy law entitled to a major, adjutant and quarter master. The two troops have been thus full for more than a year past and as yet no such appointments have been made.— The militia law authorises the Governor to commission ilie officers, and he ought to com pleat tiie organization (de novo) as fast as the law enjoins it on him. Great dissatisfaction is discoverable for want of a major of cavalry, and tiie commander of each troop is jealous of the other gelling tiie appointment. 1 must con fess, were 1 the commander of the 1st troop, and the appointment was given to tiie com mander of the 2d troop ov any other person, 1 Be tiffs as it may, the would certainly resign. appointment ought to be made, if neither ol Neither their selfish notions, nor them gets it. the contending interests oi others ought to re tard the system being rendered com pleat, their present state they exercise separately, and consequently there is no stimulus lor them to excel in munutuvering. Indeed it lias been remarked by judges, that if the commanders have any knowledge of tactics, they display none, except it consists in galloping in Indian file. T a suitable character was appointed to Charged particularly with the safety of the Rhenish confederation, lie is •arned to be on his guard ; he will call out his contingent, and ■will himself march his trot»j>s from the interior towards the Rhine, On all sides we shall be under arms. In such a stat-of things a spark will suffice to produce a conflagration. Does Austria seriously wish for war? What advantage dots she hope fro m it ? We are sure that she can expect no co-operation from Russia, She will derive but indifferent benefit from En gland. She will be ithout an ally upon thp continent. If she docs not want war, why this excessive expettee which wastes het finances, de stroys her banker.», and annihilates the credit of her paper money i Why impede the prosperity of the inteiior which is just reviving? Why give us any uneasiness, alarm Europe with the dread of a renewal of the war, and alienate from her the Emperor who will be less disposed to let her co-operate in the arrangements of Europe? Surely, she will not reproach us, if wc take a hostile and menacing attitude; it is a barrier that Austria will raise between Trance and herself, since trance has given every proof of a desire to live with her in the most perfect harmony. " You, sir, value the preservation of that har mony, and you know that it is not less the ob ject of my wishes, Do all you can, that our wishes may be gratified : enlighten your gov eminent as to our disposition, which surely af. tord no cause for apprehensions ; ami as to the effects of those measures, hich your govern men is advised to adopt, Thosc who advise you to adopt them are not your true founds: foes to the repose of Europe, they would plunge their country into a long train of evils.

NAUSCOFY, Or the Ait of discovering Ships at a great distant -, from Band. [From the Naval Chronicle.j Nauscopy is the art of discovering the ap proach of ships, in the neighbourhood of lands, at a considerable distance. This knowledge is not derived either from the undulation of waves, or from the subtility of sight ; but merely from observation of the ho rizon, which discovers signs indicating the proximity of large objects. At the approxima tion of a ship towards tiie land, or towards ano ther ship, theie appears in tiie atmosphere a meteor of a particular nature, which, with a little attention, is visible to any person. Mr. Bottineau (a native of the island of Bour bon) la « this discovery before M. de Castries, Amonv tiie numerous new publications daily issuing from the American press, is it not time to look for a comnietc e liiioa of the va at I lium tracts of Mr. ,/<//< f Their sterliii me fit entitles them to collection and we are per suaded that the publisher who undertook an to edition would be amply rewarded by the dispo sition of a large impression. There are thou m sands of Americans who would be highly gra tified in preserving on their shelves this re membrance of a man to whom they feel so ar dent a respect and gratitude. We recommend tiffs suggestion to our enterprising booksellers, with the hope that if adopted, tiie edition of Mr. Jefferson's works will be printed with be coming elegance. We entertain another and more important hope, in winch, we have no doubt, we shall be joined universally by our fellow-citizen».— This is, that Mr. Jefferson will lie his own bi ographer, and bequeath to tiie world a faithful record of the distinguished events in which he has borne so illustrious a part. No one can discharge tiffs duty so ably as himself; and, next to the services he lias rendered, must be tiie value of exhibiting them, together with the several incidents to wlvch they relate, or with which they are connected, in such an un questionable shape as shall dispel all miscon ception respecting them. Such a legacy would embrace the annals of bis country, and no in considerable portion of the history ol the ci vilized world It would expose the true mo tives of the revolution, and the beneficent views of the advocates of liberty, in a just point of light. Have not the friends of liberty a right to ex pect from Mr. Jefferson such a bequest? His eminent literary attainments, bis full retention of mental faculties, and bis leisure, all qualify him for the discharge of the duty. Nat. Intel. in I f 84• The minister sent him hack to the ; island to continue his observations there, under 1 the inspection and superimendance of the gov- j ernmem. j Mr. Bottineau engaged, that not r single ship should arrive at the i-tand without his having sent information of it several day* before. 'An exact register of his communications was hept in the secretary's office. AU his reports compared with the ships' books as soon as wtre they arrived, to •'nether the variations of weather, calms which retarded them, &c. Sec. were such a» agreed with his reports. It must be observed, that when his reports were made, the watchmen, stationed on the mountains, could not perceive any appearance oi slops; lor M. Bottineau announced their ap proach when they were more than a hundred miles distant. from the authenticated journal of his reports, which had been published, it appears that he was wonderfully accurate. Within eight months, and in sixty two reports, he announced the ar riva! of one hundred and fifty ships of different descriptions. Of the tint there can be no reasonable doubt, because every method was ado ptc.l to prevent deception, and his informations weie not only registered, as soon as they were made in the gov ernment office, but were also pubhckly known over tlie whole island. The officers of govern ment, moreover, were far fioin being partial to M. l'ottinemi ; on the conti ary, they were dis pleased with him for obstinately refusing to sell litem lus secret, which they wanted to purchase at a high price, so that he could v xpect no fa vour from their representations. Tiuth, how ever, obliged them to give abundant testimony to the reality of his extraordinary talent, in then letter to tiie Trench minister, which is published m a " Memoire sur hl hau, cope, pur M. Botti neau." neau." The following are two of the reports extract ed from tiffs memoir : " On the doth cf August 1784, I dt covered some vessels at the distance of to Uys sail from tile island. j On tiie following day* me number liiplicd considerably tu my sight. This in mu duced me to semi information of many vessels; but though they were only four days distance, 1 nevertheless staled in my report, that no settled time could be fixed on lor tiieir arrival, as they detained by a calm, On the 25th the calm were s so complete) as to make me think, for a u r a few hours, that the fleet had disappeared, and gone to some other place. 1 soon after perceived again the presence of tue fleet, by the revived It was still in the same state of inaction. signs. nt which 1 sent information. From the 20th of August to tiie I Oi ii of September, 1 did not cease ■o announce in my reports, the continuation of tiie calm. On the lJtii 1 sent word that tiie fleet was no longer her lined, and that it would arrive at the island within forty-eight hours.— Accordingly, to the surprise of tue whole '.Hand, M. ile Regnier's fleet arrived at Pott Loud a on the 15th. Tiie general astomsment wttsgieatly increased, when u was known that this fleet had been becalmed since the 20th of August, near Rodriguez islands, which was precisely tiie dis tance i pointed out in my reports." " 1 soon had another opportunity of shewing tl. u certainty of my observations. A few days before the arrival of M. de R egnier's fleet, I an nounced the appearance of another fleet, which became perceptible to me. This created a great deal ot uneasiness, because a» no r Trenr.li fleet was expected, that which 1 discovered might lie English siiips.—I was ordered to repeat my observations with accuracy. 1 clearly perceived tiie passage of several siiips, and declared they were not hound for r island, but were taking another course. In consequence oi' this informa tion, tiie N Jade frigate and the Duc de Chartres cutter were suddenly dispatched to M. da Sut frein. The cutter actually saw and avoided the English fleet, in the ninth degree, but untortu nalely did not fir.d M. dc Sutilein in tiie bay of Trincomalee. 'The report of the cutter effectu ally convinced the incredulous of the reality of my discovery." 1 he last circumstance, of dispatching tiie fri gate and cutter, plainly shews the confidence which the Trench officers must have put in the information of M. Bottineau.—It shews also that he deserves their confidence. Conjectures respe cting the Pht noiniuon on which the preceding observations vue vi undid. The waters of tiie oeean form an immense gulf in which substances of all kinds are swal lowed up. The innumerable Ititudc of animals, fish, birds, vegetable and mineral productions, wnicli decay, and are decomposed in that vast basin, produce a fermentation abounding in spirits, salts, oil, sulphur, &c. &:c. The existence of these is sufficiently apparent by the disagreeable smell and flavour of sea-water, which can only be rendered drinkable by distillation, and by the evaporation of those heterogeneous particles which infect it. The spirits, intimately united to the sea-wa ters, continue undisturbed as long as those wa ters remain in a state of tranquility ; or, at least, they experience only an internal agitation, which is siiglitiy manifested externally. But when tiie waters of the sea are set into motion by storms, or by tiie introduction of an active mass which rides upon tiieir surface, with violence and rapidity, the volatile vapors con tained in the bosom of the sea escape, and rise up a fine mist, which forms an atmosphere round the vessel. This atmosphere advances with tiie vessel, and i« increased every moment by fresh emanations tiring from the bottom of the water. These emanations appear like so many small clouds, which, joining rarb other, form a bind of sheet projecting forward,"one extremity of which touches the ship, whilst the other ad vannes in the sea to a considerable distance, But this train of vapors is not vl-ible to the si ht; it escapes observation by the trat, spa ren c.y of its particles, and is confounded with other fluids which compose the atmosphere, But as soon as the vessel arrivts within a cir cumfiertnee wiicic it meets with other hnnioge nous vapors, such as those which escape from land, this sheet, which till that time had been so limpid and subtile, is suddenly seen to acquire consistence and colour, by the mixture of the two opposite columns. This clung? begins at the prolonged extremi ties, which by their contact arc united, and ac quire a coloui and strength ; afterward», in pro portion to the progression of the vessel, the me tamorphosis increases and reaches the centre ; at last the phenomenon becomes the more manifest, and the ship makes its app ranee. MECHANISM. A German Mechanic, of tiie narre ol M tri, 2 ), is now exhibiting st Paris, an au tomaton of a singular construction. The figure exhibits a Trumpeter in the uniform» of the Band of the Trench Imperial Guuirls, and at the word of command raises the Trumpet to its mouth and plays some ex quisite pieces of marital music. The whole of the mechanism is contained in the chest of tiie automaton ; us feet rest upon a board to which castors are affixed, and the pro prietor moves it from place to place, in the exhibition room, to shew tha: there is no communication with any other apartment. In this respect it is superior to the celebra ted automaton fiute-pl.tyer of M. Vatican son, which or.re made so much noise in Eut ope: this latter figure reclined against a wall, behind which some complicated ma j chiner}' was supposed to be placed, l he most wonderful part of M. Mxelr.i's auto maton, is the effect produced by the lips of the figure upon the trumpet, which are made to exhibit all the delicacy of touch peculiar to the lips of the, human body. No jarring or cracking sound of machiner'/ is to be heard, although the ear be applied close to the body of the automaton nor cau any musical sound be emitted unless when the trumpet is applied to the mouth. At the conclusion of the exhibition 'I. Mael* zi sits down to a piano forte, and his trum peter performs ao accompaniment to seve ral pieces of music with all the precision of a first rate performer.

" The undersigned has received the note, which his excellency the minister for fo reign affairs, did him the honor to address to him, and which was dated the 16th July. ** He hastened to transmit to his court, the demand, in favor of Mr. Young, lieu tenant of the 2d regiment of Polish infan try. The fact, that (notwithstanding the regularity of the passports with which that officer was furnished, and which obtained for him admission into Gallic - !» w ithout any difficulty) lie was placed under arrest, un fortunately proves to the undersigned that it must have been his personal conduct, which provoked the interference of the po lice against him What that conduct was, the undersigned will without doubt hasten to get information of in order that he may be able to furnish to his excellency M. de Champagne every* explanation relative to •hat a-! t The interest which the court of France takes in the case of this individu al, is sufficient in every respect to excite that of his imperial royal, and apostolic ma jesty. " The complaints, which appear to have been made in the duchy of VVarsaw, res differ pecting the great difficulty attending ent exportation» Irom the Austrian monar chy, can, if really some privations have been experienced, only relate to administrative measures, which the undersigned does not hesitate to declare to he general, and to ap ply to all the country bordering on the pro where such measures may have been vince He knows too well put into execution, the tenor of the instructions given to all the chiefs of the provinces, to admit lor a mo the possibility of partial prohibitions ment obstacles, being exercised against no o or ther country but that occupied by the French troops. The government of Gal licia, beside* has been lor too long a time tested, to be suspected in A moment of peace, of a partiality, that never could be imputed to it, even when the flames ol war raged on the great part of our frontiers, and since the proofs of this Fact have been pronounced by the emperor Napoleon him self. The couvt of Vienna is far from for 44 getting the measures taken by France, in the duchy of Warsaw, for establishing trait quility and harmony with its neighbors } and it were desirable without doubt, that the same views and sentiments were those, exclusively, which influenced all the au thorities and people of that new state. But without attributing more to those last than thev deserve, his imperial, royal aud apos tolic majesty will not cease to instruct the administrations of his provinces, to behave to ail his neighbors with the most exact im partiality : and there is no person employ ed, who ought not on his side to take care to enter completely into t..e views of his court, in interpreting its orders in a sense the most strict in favor of places occupied hy French troops. " The undersigned, being equally eager to call the attention of his curt to this sub ject, embraces the occasion to tender the assurances, No. V. Special letter from count de Meter meh to count dc Chantpagny. Paris, July 22, 1808. "Your excellency has done perfect jus tice to mv intentions and principles : of this your last letter has afforded me a flat ertng proof, how can 1 better repay your confidence titan by completely gratifying the wishes you have expressed ? " You require exnlanations relative to the warlike preparations that are announc ed, not onlt in the newspaper, hut in the correspondence from all the courts of Ger many ; respecting the noise of war originat ing iu Vienna and resounding throughout the provirces ; in short, respecting the measures which have been for some time past developed in the interior i f the Aus trian monarchy—There is but one of those points, oil which I am well informed, or trt which I would not willingly express my self: I will not, however, separate them : our measures of interior administration have no connection with the rumors of war which circulates in Germany and France. " The Austrian monarchy finds itself in a position entirely different' from that, in which those administrative principles are established, according to which it is partly governed. The social institutions have been changed within the last twenty years, in the greater part of Europe. All the states on this side of the Ysonzo, the Inn and Bohemia, have become eminently mili tary j all of them have adopted the princi ples of a conscription, which embraces the whole of the papulation. The French sys tem of conscription, that institution by which the French empire has been furnish ed with so many resources, and which the de genius of the Emperor has developed and applied, is not only put into execution in two thirds of the continent, but forms one of the principal foundations of the social compact in the constitutions of several new states, particularly the kingdom of West phalia. It is also introducing into the duchy of Warsaw, Bavaria has establish ed a constitution ; and the conscription is there extended, contrary to the ideas, which to this day govern the old state of Germany, to the whole people—All Italy recruits its armies by conscription. " Austria is one of the first of the states which has determined to complete its ar. mies by conscription : other countries, such as Hungary, 6tc. were, and yet are, exempt from it ; hut it was not, nor is it extended at this time to even the priviledged class of the German provinces. Those exemptions do not form the only point in which con de sists the great inferiority of our institution compared with that of France: to ours is at tended with imperfections, that there is no remedy for, since above an eighth part of our army returns every year to their homes, as the terms for which they serve expire. Our army was filled in a great part by men who joined it from the old German states of thé empire ; that source is cut off: and the evil is felt more sensibly in proportion as the new institutions are adoped in the rest of Europe. " The perfect state of quiet, the tranquil and satisfactory relations existing between Austria and all the powers of the continent, pointed out to her the moment when, after fifteen years of war and agitation, site might at last put into execution, the plansconceiv. ed and immediately adopted after the peace of Presburg. She began by a reform the most essential for her internal welfare and the most urgent because she did not antici pate any results until, after a lapse of seve Id operate upon the great sal years, she could operate upon the great mass of lit r subjects. She wished to he able to replace lire troops leaving lief ar mies, by soldieis better prepared for ser and mote accustomed to the use of vice and the words of command, so incom arms prchensihle to the greater part ot tite te cruits raised among ten different people. Site determined upon the formation ot re serves, according to the institutions, organ _ 0 to the inferiority of izing them according to our conscription, which she did not wish to abandon entirely. The establishment of } resetveswas besides reccmmtnded lrom adding to the financial considerations ; lia. I already at lumbers of such corps, as tamed their military compliment, withdrew the people from agriculture und preyed up on the treasury uf the state. • But all the citizens of Fi ance and of its confederated states, are liable to lie called to arms, without any distinction or ex ception.—The inhabitants of the cities or of the country ate bound to defend their homes. We also wished to permit the pro prietors of tite soil and the prtviledged dus ses of the nation, to exercise that respecta ble duty ; and we have established in the German provinces a soft of stationary na j tional guard. The constitution of Hunga ry called, at ail times all classes oi society to tile defence of the country. " This is what has been done, and the or. dinances published in the months of May and June will explain the whole object of my court. No new corps has been raised ; no assemblage of troops has taken place, except on the frontiers of Turkey, which the war between two neighboring powers call* for it as a measure of security. There is no one of the Austrian monarchy, who mistakes either the spirit which actuates the government those measures, or their ob ject. They have the public approbation, because the whole nation regards then as ne'-essary to insure to the country respec table means of defence : anil they would accuse the court of an unpardonable neg lect, if in the steps it had taken, it had re mained behind those neighbors, who though, to day in a state of peace, might the next day become i s enemies. If some among,: them have been disposed to see, in the reform of ancient institutions, and in measures purely organized, offensive indi citions, they mat he tranquil, for in those : measures themselves they will find the cer tainty of the preservation ol peace. No permanent institutions can be considered to possess an offensive character : that state in must from its very nature he confined to temporary efforts ; it has no existence what ever with us. The formation of a reserve, to replace soldiers quitting the army, can not be considered an offensive treasure bv you, any more than the introduction of a military conscription into the duchy of Warsaw, into Bavaria, and the confeder: tion of the Rhine, can be so regarded by us. The friendship and interest which attach Austria to France, the imperious necessity we have for peace, and the known charac by ter of our emperor, insure, its duration. " Your excellency has spoken of reports of war, originating in Vienna, and giving uneasiness to a part of Germany, in You re lieve me from a heavy hurden that mv mode of thinking (which only attends the reports of this kind, when I am positively compelled to it) enable me to sustain for a long time* No, they do not origi nute in Vienna, but reports of wsr have arrived at that place, which agitate as well the public, is as the court, which, until now, attached but little credit to them. " I hese are—the French corps who be its gin to re-assemble in Prussia, and who, in part, have re-assembled in Silesia where all the generals, officers and soldiers, without exception, announce an intended entry into Bohemia ; the military of the duchy of Warsaw, who speak of what thev wish to be believed, their anticipated entry into of Gaihcia, the German newspapers, under the controut of the c infedcrate states, who do not cease to mention cessions which we are said to demand from France, and of né at gociations equally destitute of any found» • no tion of truth. All the reports which hi imperial ihajeSty might receive from Pa ris, would inform him that an early attnc k upon Austria was spoken of among all cla: - of the public, spoken of for so long a ses time, and so directly inierruptiug the paci fic relations between the two courts tbkt they could not have escaped the vigilance of the governmet j they would also prove to him my constant anxiety to côrrtrndirt I might furnish proofs those false reports, assertions, from the re. of the first of those port* of our military commandera, ui floht - mia, from those of our civil- agents emploi - ed on ail points of our frontiers, and Lly letters which 1 received or which I have seen, lt*m all parts of Germany- all of which have the appearance of correctneis respecting the reports circulated by the Kreuch and confederate military. The public newspapers above mentioned, and our o-wn, are in the hands of every boslv " It is several mouths since 1 inniradi t* ed those rumors, since I pledged myself directly to nay court for their falsity, and for the pacific views of the emperor Nape.

" It was at the per-otl when those alarm*, the first authors of which wcie entirely un known to me because generally prevalent, that deprived of all confidential communication with the court bv which I was accredited, 1 e> mes sed to the minister of general police my ix pedation that some encouraging articles rela tive io the relations between France and Aus tiia, would arrive to strengthen the argument» of my court and my own— a stell, winch, fa the great satisfaction of the former, had all the success which 1 had a right to expect fi om a French minister, I notice lins fact htcuu.-.eit brings to recollection a r.ircums trice, tlie olv j r t of which was to In liquidité tlve.

Oth ervi-e I would not have taken a step, which, if your excellency had been at Paris whotild have afforded me. a new opportunity to prove to you, that the only desire which animates is that of maintaining the most perfect harmony between our two governments. " I presume that my note, of this day, rela tive to the American vessels, will have -riven all the information that his imperial and royal majesty desired. 1 shall hasten to communi cate to him the result of the new enquiry, which the emperor has directed, and for which the documents have been forwarded from Tri este to Vienna. " Your excellency will receive without doubt, a new denunciation respecting a direct inter course between Austria and England. An English flag of truce, is arrive* at Trieste_ this is a fact, upon which the consul will not be mistaken. far irom hesitating I am eager to remove confidentially and before hand, the repoits which will be forwarded to Bayonne on this subject. 7 he flag of truce was dispatched a by admiral Collingwood, in consequence of of advice>• received by the commandant of the British forces in the Mediterranean, of tite in— sut lection in Arragon, and of the proclamation of Palafou : it was charged with a single letter, from the admiral to the Archduke Charles— which, referring to what it was supposed his royal highness already knew respecting that proclamation, offered him a frigate to convey him to Spain. 1 he whole of that mission did not merit answer—the commander of the flag of truce, was told them was no answer for him and that he must depart without one.

I will never vary or de viate from my pritiwples—nor change my ma* sures, if the former perfectly accord with those of your excellency with regard to the benefit that would result from a state of peace, in towards which all my views extend, I have no merit for the latter.

Jeffer son. It would seem as if the spirit of faction must have some victim to mangle, and, disap pointed in finding any vulnerable points in those now at the head of affairs, had determined to re vive every stale calumny which ignorance or ma lice his fabricated during the past eight years to obscure the fame of this distinguished citizen. Professing an unbounded respect for rhe present Chief Magistrate, it daringly carries the dagger to the heart of his best friend, and denounces a career in which he sustained himself a part only •eoondary ; exhibiting as extraordinary a proof of consistency as of respect for Mr. Madison. Be it so. Soothing as it might have been to the sage of Moriticello to close his last days amidst the accents of universal praise, the syren sounds might have exposed the solidity of his fame to some question. It is not in the nature of igno rance and depravity sincerely to praise what tlfcy do not understand or hate ; and applause from such a source might have been justly considered as hypocritical or selfish. The character, which the whole world applauds, is rarely understood, oris extolled more for its negative than positive traits. There is an inflexible sternness in viituc, that disdains and repels the adulation of the vicious, that shrinks from their approaches and friendship, and considers itself most endangered when made the subject of their encomiums. What, in fact, can he more equivocal than such praise ? Can it spring from the love of virtue or the honest admiration of profound talents ? This would imply an integrity -altogether wanting in those who offer it. No. it can only flow from selfish considerations; from the desire to retrieve a character bankrupt in the public esteem, or from a wish to accomplish certain ends of which this is made the means. Away, then, with all such hollow homage. It can lie the pedestal of no true greatness. It may under mine, but it can never rear true glory. Mr. Jefferson's fame requires no such trophy, The applause of the enlightened, The esteem of the good, these are the imperishable shields that de fend it. Does a name, thus severencetl, require a de fence against the unjust reproaches lavished a gainst it ? Perhaps it does not. The blaze of light which has accompanied all tbc great meu sures of Mr. Jefferson, and above all the fruits of those measures gathered by a grateful nation, are conclusive answers to the ceaseless atternp s to impair his character. But safe as his fame is, firmly as it may be fixed in the hearts of his countrymen, silence might be construed into in sensibility, and might expose his republican friends to the charge of ingratitude, so affectedly and falsely ascribed to republics. If, moreover, the defence of his measures may not be requi site to the preservation of his fame, they may not be Unimportant to ourselves. We have certainly reached a point of view, more commanding than any which could heretofore be occupied by the observer ; events aie now seen in their effects as well as causes ; the connection of one measure with that of another is more distinctly perceived ; and the general effect of the whole is felt. Tlie Chief Magistrate has also retired from his polili cal eminence. The lustre of high station, the cupidity for place, the thirst for power, no lon ger dazzle and seduce. The medium through which every thing is seen is unclouded, and the award now pronounced may be viewed, in some measure, as the award of history. It ought not, therefore, to be considered as a superfluous or useless task to pass in review the measures of Mr. Jefferson'sadministraiion, however amply they may heretofore have been scrutinized, In performing this task, it will only be requi site to take large and general views. Jt will not be so necessary to scrutinize into the solidity of every individual link, as to examine the general character of the chain itself, whose soundness and compctcntcy will abundantly appear from the results from the several operations in which it has been used. We shall,in the first instance, take a view of our domestic concerns, then -offer a view of our foreign affairs, and close the enquiry with contrasting the situation of the United States at the time of Mr. Jefferson's ac cession with that of his retirement from office. The leading measures of Mr. Jefferson's ad ministration respecting our internal concerns may be enumerted as follows. The abolition of the internal taxes. The abolition of what has been denominated the mid-night judiciary. Provision for the rapid discharge of the public debt. Reduction of useless expcnccs. Appointments to office. Suppression of Burr's conspiracy. Pacification of the Indians. General expenditure of the public money. Throughout the whole of this enquiry in ex amining the measutes pursued during Mr .Jeffer son's administration we shall be in danger of im puting to him opinions and acts, strictly speak ing, not his own. According to the ttirory of our government he is tlie sole Executive, and di rectly, or by subordinate agents, wields the whole executive power, for the exercise of which he is considered as responsible. But al is most obvious though this be the theory, it - that, in the discharge of duties so complicated, multifarious, and remotely located, as those which embrace the interests ot such an extensive territory, lie must inevitably in many instances, bestow a confidence almost unlimited, and ex tremcly liable to abuse ; that, consequently, loi the attainment of particular ends, means will sometimes be used, which he, if similarly situ ated wrh his agent, would have been the last man in tire world to have adopted. The same remark will apply, though with of his cabinet, in trengib to the measures .s understood that a degree of a iiirh i feei respect, accommodation, and even concession prevailed, that very frequently prompted the Chief Magistrate, on points which did not im plicate principle, to forego his own opinion for that of his council, Few men that have ever lived knew, in this respect, human nature bet ter than Mr. Jefferson lie knew that ditstiti guishpd talents united with integrity are un bending, and disdain on ally occasion, to act thé part Of a mere drudge. He, therefore, wisely determined to surround himself with able counsellors, and divide his power with them ; so tu-r at feast as often to yield his own opinions to tneirs. By setting tins example a spirit of mutual confidence and concession was inspired, and, ns valuable finit, a harmony of co-opera tion insured. Although, then, Mr. Jefferson, be constitutionally answerable lor all the mea sures of Ins' cabinet, yet it would be unjust not to make an equitable allowance for the difference of opinion winch always will fnorc or lebs cha racterise independent minds. If these considerations ought to influence our judgement in apportioning our praise r consule to trie Executive nets of Mr. Jefferson's adminis tration, how much more ought they to influ ence that apportionment with regard to the leges lathe nets of the government t Although it be the duty of the President " from time to time to give to Congress information of the state of the Union, and recommend to their consideration sures as he shall judge necessary and suen mea expedient,'' it is no less the right of Congress, in ille exeicise of an indépendant judgement, .to adopt or reject the measures thus recommended, or pursue such other measures as they may see fit. And, although it be admitted that there great and unusual harmony betweeu Mr. WU8 Jttteison and Congress during the whole course ot his administration, yet, there is no doubt but that they in some cases rejected his advice, and adopted measures which he would never have suggested. Keeping these circumstances in view let us proceed to a consideration of the leading mea sures adopted during his administration. (Tu be Continued. J %\)t d5a5Ctte. fVilmington , jfuly 22 , 1809 . An arrival at Boston from Halifax brings London paper» to the 25th of May, which con tain intelligence of the utmost importance to this country. The correspondence between Mr. Erskine and the Secretary of State had reached London, and on the 24th of May Mr. Canning declared in the British House of Com mons that the agreement purporting to be en tered into between their minister and our go vernment, mas not mode in conformity with the •wishes of his majesty, nor such as his majesty could approve of. Thus has tlie confidence of our government been abused, and the property of our citizens exposed to lawless depredation by the wicked machinations of a corrupt ministry. It is true that Mr. Canning, by way of smooth ing off the matter, has said that the British go 's eminent would respect the settlement that has been made until Us explanations reach A But who will believe him ? Will not merica. even some of his good friends in this country tremble for the fate of their property ? Can any one suppose that Mr. Erskine would have been so fool-hardy as to make the proposals Ite did without full instructions from his govern ment ? We have had sufficient proof of Mr. Canning's talent for quibbling and sophistry to suppose he may succeed in blasting the repu tation of Mr. Erskine, as he has endeavored to do that of Mr. Pinckney, but we are certain that the disposition of the British ministry to wards this country, will be now properly ap preciated. Whatever evils may result from the misplaced confidence of our government, as it must be apparent to all that a sincere de sire to reconcile the existing differences has been manifested on our part, honest men of all parties will now rally round the government, and the small, contemptible British faction in this country will be fain to hide its diminished head. Summary of Foreign Aras .—London papers state that the king of Sweden has been formally deposed, and the government placed in the hands of the prince regent, until a new consti tution should be finally settled. That the emperor of Russia had declared war against Austria, and marched his armies into Gallicia and defeated them. That Bonaparte has advanced to Vienna without any additioriaVbattle, leaving the Aus trian army under the Archduke Charles in Bo hemia r, and an Austrian force on the Tyrol. Jt was presumed that French troops would pro ceed immediately for Hungary, in order to an ticipate an insurrection there. The emperor of Austria is said to have writ ten a letter to the emperor Napoleon, imploring an armistice and peace of his majesty in the most humble expressions. It is not known what answer was returned, but conjectured to have been an unfavourable one. A French squadro'n is said to have escaped from Toulon, and thrown itself into Bavcelon. This is probably the squadron reported by cap tain Dashiells to have been captured by Lord Collingvvood. The account is probably incor rect. Rear admiral Harvey has been dismissed from the British service, for using " vehement and insulting language" to admiral Gambier. Capture of the Toulon Fleet ,—Captain Dash iells of the sloop Henry in 3 days from Ber ttitma, informs ns that lie sailed from Martin ique on the 3rth of June, and on that day, ad- 1 vices were received there ofthe* capturer .of the 1 onion, flee Y by. Lord Coliingwood, consisting of 5 sai. of the line, 6" or 7 frigates, and 30 transports, having on board the French garri* son of Barcelona. Capt. D. further states that a vessel had arrived at Martinique having spo r ken an American ship, from Gibratar, and was informed by the American captain, that Lord Collingvvood bail arrived at Gibraltar previous to his.sailing, with the Whole French fleet his prizes. I The above account is confirmed by f; letter from St, Croix, of the 2d July, received bv the Richard. " A. Y. Oa.:. C-mJèdcration-of the Rhine. I his-confederation has been recently formed by several German" State»! and as it has now be come very important in the scale of affairs on tile Continent, and will probably become more so from the large acquisition of strength it will receive in the present war, we lay a short ac count of it before our leaders. Several German States situated between the Rhine and the Mayne, separated themsel ves from the Germanic body, and associated as confederate states of the Rhine, under the pro tectioii-of the French empire, in the year 180b', The instrument of confederation was signed at Paris on the 12th July, tiie same year. The contracting parties were the Emperor of the French on the one part, and on the other the Kings of Bavaria and Wirtemberg (made kings by Bonaparte the year before) the Archduke Ob R.Hjsbon, as Prince primate, the Grand Pukes of Baden, Berg, Hesse-fSarmstadt, Nassau-VVeilbourgh, and Nassau- Usingen, the Princes of Hohenzollern Hictrngen, undSeig mûVing'jiv-Salm-Sulm, Salm-Kyrburg, Isen burgli, Birsteinand Lilch-tenstein, the Duke of Ahremberg, and the Prince of Leyn.' They declared that they would admit otiier German Princes and States in all cases where their union with the Confederation might be found con sistent with rhe general interest ; and thus vir tually annihilated the inconsiderable part that wes left of flic German empire. This induced Francis II, last Emperor of Germany, and i of Austria, formally to abdicate the German empire by his proclamation of the fith of August 180b. It was then expected that a similar Con federation would be formed north of the Maybe, under the protection of either Prussia or Russia; but the King of Prussia having declared war a gainst France in October 180b, and having been struck nerveless at fhebattle of Jena, 14th of the same month, several other German States hastened to join the Confederation of the Rhine, as Lieppe Detmold, Schaumburg-Buke burg, Saxe-Wei mar, Saxe Got ha, Saxe Co bourg, and the newly created kingdom of Sax ony (formed out of the electorate of Saxony, duchy of Warsaw, and some oiher acquisitions) tlie King of which is the late Elector of Saxo ny. By tlie peace of Tilsit in 1807, which e rects the Prussian provinces on the right bank of the Elbe and the possessions of Hesse-Cas scl, Orange-Fulda, and other petty German states into a new kingdom called Westphalia, (over which is placed Jerome Bonaparte of Baltimore memory.) the Confederation of the Rhine is extended to the bank of the Elbe ; and Prussia has since (in 1 808) joined the Confede ration, By this Federal compact an union of several sovereign srates has taken place, em bracing a population double that of the U. S. of America, forming' a complete barrier to France on the German side, and ripping up completely the Germanic Empire, leaving Francis nothing but the hereditary states.—It is a stupendous fabric erected by the mighty genius of Napoleon, and will do more to sub serve his purposes in subjugating Europe, than an alliance with the most powerful kingdom on the continent. It may be said with certainty, to this Con federation the house of Austria owes its down fall. In a little time Francis will be dethroned and drove from his hereditary possessions ; every tiling which will be left to him he will hold by the precarious tenure of Napoleon's bounty ; and willingly would he then accept of. a life-estate in the small possessions which the house of Hapsburg once possessed in the Canton of Bern. But the fatal decree has been proclaimed : Napoleon has said he should cease to reign ; and with his reign ends a rest ing place for him on the continent. Centinel of Freedom. The Republicans in 'fl8. and 99 unequivocal ly disapproved of the measures of Mr. Adams' administration; and they row as iieely com mend him for bringing to light the midnight ini quity which then prevailed with the " Essex junto."—For this they are represented in the federal papers as acting an inconsistent part ; and the question is exultingly asked'—how can you now approve of the man you then so loudly condemned.—An answer is ready : Mr A dams was a better man than his measures be spoke—and being at the helm of state he had to father the misconduet of others. But since tlie truth has come out, it plainly appears that the most obnoxious measures of bis adminis tration are to be traced to the contaminating influence of Hamilton and Pickering, and not to Mr. Adams. Now, who is most inconsistent, the Republicans in commending an honest de velopemeut of infamy and intrigue ; or the Fe deralists in blunting the effect of their expo sures by reproaching their old friend and ad vocate.

EXTRACT. Passion is a fever of the mind, which ever leaves us weaker than it found us. It is the threshold of mnd ness and insanity, and indeed they are so much alike, that they some times cannot be distinguished; and their effects are often equally fatal. The first step to moderation is to perceive that tve are falling into a pas ston. It is much easier wholly to prevent ourselves from falling into a passion, than to keep it within just bounds ; that which few can mod. eratc, almost any bodv may pre vent. * A passionate temper renders a man unfit for advice, deprives him of reason, robs him of all that is great or noble in his nature, destroys friendship, changes justice into Cl 11 elty, and turns all order into confu sion. Augustas, who was prone to an ger, got the following lesson from Athenodorus the philosopher. That so soon as he should feel the first em otions towards anger, he should re peat deliberately the whole letters of the alphabet ; for that anger was easily prevented, but not easily sub dued. To repress anger, it is a good method to turn the injury into a jest. Socrates having received a blow on the head, observed, that it would be well if people knew when it were ne cessary to put on a helmet. Being kicked by a boisterous fellow, and his friends wondering at his patience, " What (said he) if an ass should kick me, must I call him before a judge ;" Being attacked with op probious language, he calmly obser ved, that the man was not yet taught to speak respectfully. HEROISM OF A PEASANT. The following generous action has always struck me extremely ; there is somewhat even of sublime in it. . .A great inundation having taken p ; acc in the north of Italy, owing to an excessive fall of snow in the Alps, followed bv a speedy thaw, theriver A-lidge carried off a bridge near Ve rona) cxctpt the middle part, on which was the house of toll-gatherer, I or porteri j f or g C t which ; and who ■ with his whole fumilv, thus remain , ed imprisoned by the waves, and in momentary danger of destruction, , They were disco veaed from the banks, stretching forth their hands scrcam ing, and imploring succour, while fragments of this remaining arch were continually dropping Into the w;tler> In this extreme danger, a nohle man, who was present, a count of Pulvernii, I think, held out a purse 0 t" one hundred sequins, as a reward to any adventurer who would take a boat, and deliver this unhappy fami l y .._But the risk was so great of be ing borne down by the rapidity of the stream, of being dashed against the fragments of the bridge, or of be j n g crushed by the falling stones, that not one, in the vast number of spectators, had courage enough to attempt such an exploit, A peasant, passing along, was in formed ot the proposed reward. Im mediately jumping into a boat, he, by the strength of oars, gained the mid die of the river, brought his boat un. rj er the pile ; and the whole family safely descended by means of a rope, " Courage !" cried he—"now you are safe." By a still more strenuous effort, and great strength of arm, he brought the boat, and family to shore "Brave fellow," exclaimed the count, handing the purse to him, " here is at the promised recon,peJtce, " I &ha11 llcver ex P° se m >' life for mon ey , answered the peasant, « My la C bour is a sufficient livelihood for my self , my vife , and childrcn< Givc thc p ,4 to this poor fanily ; which has lost all." ON A TRANQUIL LIFE. A calm and tranquil life renders it the indulgence of sensual pleasures less dangerous. 1 he theatre of sen-i suality exhibits scenes of waste ant brutality, ol noisy mirth and tumultu- ^ ons riot; presents to observation per nicious goblets, overloaded tables, '^'vious dancing, «cepjacles for disease tombs ith faded roses at r. all the dismal human haunts ot pain, But to him who retires with destesta tion from such gross delights, the joys of sense are ol a more elevated kind— soft, sublime, pure, pèrma nent and tranquil, 3U>1)Î 2lritclcS.

The wisest men in your monarchy, will not be able to arrest the torrent.— The noise of war im prudently rised, will not in vain resound within and without—Do you require a proof of live effect ?

" You tell me, sir, of fears that have been excited by the formation of camps in the countries occupied by French troops :nu do you not know that it is the custom of French armies on foreign duty, ard that in certain parts of Italy they remain in camp the whole year ? Moat certainly the cm peror would have ordered those camps to be broken up, at the idea that they excited uneasiness. But, matk the conduct of the emperor, in other respects, Has he not dismantled th- fortresses of Silesia ? Has be left a single cannon or gram of corn in one of them ? Has he not surrendered Branr.au ?—Has he taken a single step, that could be considered to originate iu hostile views against Austria ?

Mr. Erskinc went through here yesterday on his way to the seat of government, and as we presume he will feel it incumbent on him to vindi cate his conduct in this business, we shall a take no farther notice of this garbled ac count at present. We shall wait with anx iety for correct information from Wash ington. S\ The most prominent articles of intelli gence by this arrival are substantially as follows : The accrturtts of Russia having declared war against Austria, and the king of Swe den having been formally deposed, are con firmed. The king of England, in a message to to the House of Commons, states that he has entered into a treaty with the emperor of Austria, and is desirous of being able to a afford him pecuniary assistance—-his ma jesty was equally desirous of continuing his succours to the Spanish cause. Hts faith ful Commons will, no douht, enable him to manifest his disinterested liberality for the cause of suffering humanity. A Russian fleet was at sea, supposed to be destined against Stockholm. The em peror of Russia had withdrawn his armies from Finland, and threatened to pour them into the heart of Sweden unless sue con sents to accept a king of his nomination. It was stated that the Spaniards had re 1 taken St. Ja go ; that Ncy was strengthen ing himself at Corunna ; and that the Span iards had defeated a body of the French, after three actions, near Lugo, and had driven them to take refuge in that town. It was reported that Col. Schill, the lead er of the insurgents in Bavaria, was ad vancing with a regular equipped army of Ï 0,000 men to besiege Cassel ; and that he hud issued a proclamation, declaring Je rome Bonaparte an out-law. O.i the fitst and fificl of Maya severe bat tle was fought between the French army, muled by' Bonaparte, and the Austri com nr annv under the command of the Arch an The engagements took duke Charles. or fourteen place on the Danube, twelve miles from Vienna. Both parties claim the victory, but we arp inclined to thmk the advantage was in favor ol the Austrians. We shall give both their official accounts in detail in our next. ,x, AN ENQUIRY if the leaders of tire peo îr.to the political injustice pie of New-Castle, to die people of tue county of New-Cusilc. Vo. I. To the Editor ojthe Delaware Gazette. It has been a common observation Sin among the historians of the American re volution, that a habit of studying the histo ries of the Grecian and Roman republics, gave a tone to the languge, and created a spirit of disinterested independence it: die actions, of the noliticinns of that day : from whatever cause it arose, the spirit of '7 6 np to have been but little copied by the pears leaders of the town of New-Castle, m their behaviour to their brethren of the county, Every impartial observer ot the conduct of the New-Castle leaders, for a few years back, must have noticed a scence of intrigue I and political injustice, so thinly disguised : a direct insult to those irom ns to give intended to he concealed, al whom u was and the agri. feeling, directly, the liberties cultural and commercial interests of the people of the state, which has none l'utle credit to the actors and less to a democratic I preponderacy. This is not vain declamati ; the facts, if they cannot be substantiat on ed in a court of justice, can, at least be pro ven to the positive conviction of eveiy ho nest well informed man in the county. If credit is not given to this assertion, let the pecple of Ncw-Castle venture to provoke the discussion. An enquiry, conducted with as much attention and accuracy as the perpetual hurry of an agricultural life will admit of, into the leading features ol these intrigues and their effects upon the interests ofihe county, shall be the subject of suc ceeding numbers. The treatment of the county, and ot the democratic interests in particular, by the New-Castle leaders, in their opposition to the bridge across k-hrisitana cieek at V\ il •nington, shall be noticed in Ann1iw»r British Minister, n.nou.-i oil v - Is sail! to have arrived >nc ) j ess a they say it is, peop.e ot f ' personage, than toe celebrated - 1 rrirociiitor at CofiniHOgvn . . VV nether he has brought with h m, • ■ ;.mctt., ms mission, the "«2^ the Danes, and wbethel ''V ' j , j )V him, :;on are the logic to >e »g' P ) may learn perhaps too soon. Wl agfJhly to 1.F '■ 5 - majesty's wishes, anti that lie has not conformed to his instructions, in the arrangements with the American government, would it not be advisa arc ble, that before Jackson shall have been accre dited, that he exhibits his instructions to the se our cretary of state ? and A wise man may be imposed upon once, but a fool may bt twice tricked by the same person ; the now as Canning has played upon our credulity already, would it not indicate folly to permit him to do so again? What security have we, our that any arrangements which might be entered into with the Copenhagen negociator, woul I not also be displeasing to his majesty, and dis. avowed ? What more reliance is to be placed upon the declarations of Jackson than those of ling Erskine ? In order, therefore, that the administration may know, how far he is competent to make it satisfactory arrangements, his instructions ought to be produced. I'his will make the négociation we short and easy ; for if they do not authorize an If honorable and satisfactory adjustment, rlie:e cun he neither use nor advantage in negotiating at a l- _ rv We have already had too much diplomatic to paper scattered about the United States, and as (hose pamphlets have been an unprofitable pro ductiou, better that something more substantial the should be substituted. W ho is so silly as to believe, that Erskinc cx caedod his instructions? It is well known, that lie is the son of an ex- a minister, and that he does not belong to the ru ling ministerial party, he could, therefore, rx- d pect tro indulgence from any extensions of his powets, not agreeable to the ministry, li.i place depended upon a rigid conformity to min- pii 1 ferial will, and as his enemies in power would a be glad of, and have long been, seeking an op- j t portunity to disgrace him ; his own self-preser vation required of him a scrupulous regard to the directions of the British cabinet. But British purposes were gained, and little ceremony is re quited by the prorogates of St. James's, to dis to grace any man in their way, or to carry a point. Admiral Jlyng, the unfortunate martyr to ministerial corruption, had the instructions to act as he did, in his pocket. His papers were torn from hi n, and among them the evidence of his justification, and he was murdered to save the mini-try. Can Erskinc expect better treat ment ? lie may not, to be sure, be shot, as poor Byng was , but even tins sacrifice might be jus tified by the bench of bishops. But Canning had gained his point, and no thing was more easy to him than to disavow the act, which he had authorised, when the son of a former lord chancellor had performed it. The supplies which the embargo withheld were furnished by its repeal. The tottering ministry were sustained by na val stores and taw materials for manufacture. I be fleets of Great Britain were recruited by American productions; and, as the haggard vissage of ruin was removed from the presence of ministers, perfidy and baseness became the sub stitutes. Added to this, distrust and jealousy had been purposely infused into the lTenc.il cabinet, and the tell soul of Canning anticipated, with rap tures, the fulfillment of his hellish purposes, by involving a« innocent and unoffending nation in a war wirb all continental Europe. Will, or can, the administration acquiesce tinder such consummate treachery and peifidy ? Ought any minister to be received ; but above all, ought the minister of blood and carnage, of murder and devastation, of misery and ruin, to be accredited by a humane and a just people ? If he should be received, most ceitainly the ex hibition of his instructions ought to he the pass port to the audience chamber. Aurora. Remarks on the I.ate News. A few preliminary remarks are only necessa ry to excite our indignation against the late conduct of the British, in relation to their ebs owning the propositions made to our govern ment liy Mr. Erskine. These solemn assuran ces, upon which the President and Congress thought themselves authorised to remove the embargo, and restore the commerce of the U. States, it is now declared in the House ol Com tnot's, " were not made in conformity with the ■dishes of his Majesty, nor such as Ins majesty lieitlier could approve of. That they were founded on the instructions sent to Mr. Erskine, This declaration is nor consistent with them.'' not only made in the House of Commons, but Earl Bathurst the President of the board of trade, declaiect to a committee of merchants trading to the United States, " that the arrange ments made by their Ambassador with the government of the United States, were unau thorised by his majesty's ministers." After this enequivocal disavowal of all the powers ot Mr. " that no Erskine, be concludes with a salvo, advantage would be taken, or any impediment thrown in the way of those who bad already, and in consequence of tb s unauthorised arrange to ment, sent consignments to any of his lirilannn il Majesty's subjects." If however the overn nient has deceived us in the first instance, what depen dence can we place on their last declaration : After giving this plain statement of facts, as to the gross impositions of the British, we cannot but feel our indignation ris-: at the conduct ot a a f e w Americans, who seem inclined to palliate whatever insult is offered to this long injured country. Even the present perfidy ol this na tion has been reflected on the President. 1 lie Briiish minist huve been cncou raged to progress in their wieked proceedings towards Americans, by observing an internal faction constantly disposed to advocate what eVer injurier, ara inflicted upon us. Let what 1.F will take place, they find a party drilled to the service of opposing the government of the U. Siates, and vindicating Britain. If our sailors arc impressed, we lind some American papers filled with pieces in defence of the measure—if our citizens are killed within our own waters, on and on board of our own vessels, we soon ob serve co'utons of federal papers appropriated to be the disgraceful purpose of justifying the trans by action. I'lte cant term" unnuthuris.U by govern is ment " is a lull apology for every violation of our national honor, and for every outrage com mitted on oar flag. While the English arc thus countenanced by a faction in Boston, to depre date on our commerce and massacre our citi zens, they think it sufficient to offer some trif ling excuse for their abuses, while the principal perpétra or of the mischief is rewarded by the most mi rulive and honorary appointments. Js it possible, fellow-citizens, that we can ever ex pect to maintain our national character while we have so desperate a faction within ourselves* If our government attempts to vindicate its honor, or ado,.t laws to maintain its rights, a taction imnicdialelv appears to counteract eve rv saiutaiy system proposed. Cun we expect to meet our oopo.ers in Ear.ope on equal ground, when we harbor within our bosom a faction who justify the enemy more openly in the American papers, than even the enemy tiare do in their own ? While the embargo was approved in Europe as the most wise and saltl tary measure that could be adopted, we had \| a faction within our seaports, proclaiming ta our enemies, that if they persisted in their oi - d rs, that we should be obliged to repeal all lire laws relating to Inc restrictions of trade, proceedings of many tow .1 meetings were an ex pii c i t declaration to England in particular» tint a strong and powetlul party were determined t „ oppose the laws of Congress even to the dis solution of the union, unless lire embargo was repealed, l ire doings o:t these occasions, a mounte.l ne irly to an open rebell on against government ; and those who had the arrogance to öfter resolutions tending to aid these put oonsible for their poses, ought to be held temerity—For it is inrpossiuie that tire British ministry should have tire aliientery to deny the authority by which Mr. Erskinc negocated the late terms with the President, Ulricas they weic encouraged by a similar pa ty to iroid out nr op The ministers natu pos t oil to tin: measures, rally argue, that if this party were strong t trough to oppose the laws of Congtess, that they are powerful enough to justify them in vio f'ti.s faction however, riieir late propositions, are too entitling to discover tliei: principal a I hey make use ot tools whose igllo gents. if ignorance was ranee is tli.tr oulv excuse. not a predominant trait in their character, would any man nave had ilia viipeiunenoe to pull from Iris pocket a string ol resolutions to be adopted try the town, wituout even the fa nein revised by a commt .iee? middy of him only tools in It was evident mat such men wei tile busmans, as it is not probable they wrote one word of wlvat Hi. y ar.ogsted to themselves the authors. 1 litis have the chiliens as being urged to adopt measures, been inconsiderately :n essions stimulated by a by awing under it bom responsibility Junto who keep liiennelv s niv. 11 talents to do their by employing me.i need only relit - to Boston, We drudgery.

Hie foregoing observations are thought ne cessary to prepare u for just reflections on the ct ol the British. Wc again say, present conu inn ant'd by that if the ministry had not been been the faction which lor so many years ha acting in favor of En-, land, and ill opposition to tiie American government, it is impossible, that so violent an init action could have been com milled on their solemn assurances to this coun try. Mr. Canning must have had in view the proceedings of certain individuals on the sub ject of the embargo, otherwise, he could nut have had the assu.uUce to dec are in the House of Commons, • that the agreement entered in to by their Ambassador with the American not founded on insu uctions. government was Neither would the j nor consistent with them.'

How could Mr. Erskine be so explicit as to terms, when Mr. Canning says positively, that they were not made in conformity icith the A-his ot lus Majesty, nor founded on the instructions sent him, nor consistent with them ? How ic it pos sible that Mr. Erskine sliouhl be so grossly re for measures ceived, as to become responsible and f his Majesty so cout ure to the wishes ui altogetbet ax authorised by the ministry 1 dr. Erskine must have been more crazy than even 1rs Majesty George the Third, when under the discipline of Doctor Willis, to propose terms to the American government, so erroneous as are described by Mr Canning. This statement, fell «tv e.tizens must therefore be altogether lal There is no probability that Mr. Evs kictous. or that kitic thus spot'Ucl with urn own honor, nf his nation.

It is a serions consideration to find the prop erty of the American merchants sported with in this wanton manner. They have ventured an immense interest on the pledged faith of the British nation. If they are entrapped by any artifice, some person must be responsible— who the culprits are, ought to be clearly pointed out.

FRIENDSHIP. Prom Sewall'a Poems : Friendship 1 thou sovereign balm of woe ! Thou richest blessing here below. And source of ev'ry joy, To publish thy unrival'd praise, The soft, enliv'ning note I raise. And all my skill employ. That God from whom each blessing flows In kind compassion to our woes, The gracious boon bestow'd ! 'Tis friendship ev'ry bliss endears And lightens all the gloomy cares That wretched mortals load. On ev'ry sympathising breast Thy sacred image is imprest In characters divine To thy soft energy 'tis given To bless mankind, and bid a Heav'n In ev'ry bos.m shine. When keen affliction racks the mind, And the full heart to grief resign'd, Ail consolation flies ; Thy smile the mournful suflerer chears, Thou wip'st away the falling tears, And bidd'st new comforts rise. Sooth'd by thy tender watchful aid, See sickness raise her drooping head, And own the kind relief, Our prosp'rous days by tliee are blest, The never-failing, Heav'nly gucs, In sickness,joy and grief. Thy bounty softens poverty# The grateful beggar sings to thes Nor feels his miseries, The slave no long r mourns his chain, If some kind jfarrner shaies h<s pains, And renders sighs for sighs. Friendship exahs, refines, inspires, Fills all the soul widi virtuous fires, And godlike syn pathv, In Heav'n thou shvd'st a brighter ray, Superior beings own thy sway Nor blush to bow to thee. m— ! üüH&ceUanp ! i F'u«m Tu£ Boston Mirror. j ' EASE. t 1 Nothing is more charming to hu- ' nr.m naturp, than Ease and Indolence.

Animated by all the feelings of the purest patriotism, and oi the most loyal attach it ment to their sovereign, every man be came a hero and the smoaktng ruins—the scenes of desolation which niaiked tne track of the enemy in his progress through Austria, had inflamed ihera with a just de sire ot vengeance.— \Vuh joyful acclama tions, with the cry, a thousand times re peated, ol—" Live our good Emperor," and with victory in (heir hearts, our co lumns at noon on the 21st, proceeded on ward to meet the reciprocal attack of the advancing enemy ; and soon after 3 o'clock die baitlr commenced. I he Emperor Na poleon in persou dir ected the m ivemeni of Ins troops, and endeavored to breakthrough our ceinte with the witoie of his cavalry ; that vast body of horse he had supported by 60,000 infantry, his guards, and by 100 pieces ot artillery.

T he perseverence of the enemy' was then compelled to yield to the heroism of our troops, and the most complete victory crowned the efforts of an army, which, in the French Proclamations, was declared to be dispersed, and represented as annihilat ed by the mere idea of the invincibility of their adversaries. The loss ol the enemy has been immense—the field of battle is co vered with dead bodies, from among which we have already picked up OOOO wounded, and removed them to our hospitals. When the French could no longer main tain themselves in Aspern, the brave Mes sians were obliged to make a last attempt and were sacrificed. At the departure of the courier the Em peror Napoleon was in full retreat to the other side of the Danube, covering Ills re treat by the possession of the large island Lobau.

I'ltOM Tili: .NATIONAL IXTtl.l. 1G ENCKIt. I'lie late conduct of the British ministry has capped the cliiivx of atrocity towards this countiy. Their first act, the outrage on the Chesapeakc, was an injury of the deepest die. It was declared to be nuuuthorisrd, but the only a unequivocal evidence ol its being so, a prompt and lull atonement, with-held. Instead ol making a just reparation, a mission was insti tuted whose termination added insult to injury, Close upon the heels of this mission followed the celebrated orders of November the 11th, vvhicn produced, with no other causes, the era b .rgo and non-intercourse with England.— I liese, co-operating vvitli the disasters of lier arms, produced the arrangements made by Mr. Ersktne with our government. Every com iiierci.il restriction was taken off by us, the door to commuicial intercourse with her was widely opened, in consequence of tiie plighted removal ol her orders, and the interdict to her armed ships to enter our waters withdrawn in consequence of her solemn promise lo make a reparation for the outrage on the Chesapeake designated by herself. Our Executive, with out hesitation, accepts the proffered terms of amity ; the nation applauds it ; the legislature sanction it, in a manner that proves tne most unsuspic.ous confidence, by opening the inter - course without limitation, and without the least reservation ol Executive discretion to suspend it on a contingency; our property, to an im m.use amount, is instantly emhaikcdon the ocean; Congress adjourn in security; when to the astonishment ol every honest man these engagements, as solemnly adopted as uny en gagements made by man, are disavowed and unintlled, not in pail but altogether, as well those relative to the Chesapeake as those rela live to the orders in Council, in the language ol Lord Bathurst " an vhody u»<mthoriud." llow can tnis be ? Is Mr. Krskiue a traitor to his government, a fool, or a madman, thus to I commit himself, " not only to have acte! in a way, in the language ol lord Liverpool, " mi authorised by his instructions, but in direct op position to them r" What those insti notions were we cannot tell. But we all recollect Uie ianguuge ol Mr. Erskine, and it we believe him a man of common honesty and ol the meanest iilitlel'standing, We must conclude that lie was authonsed to make the ovet lures he proposed, i hey were not extorted Ireini him, he was the Jut \u propose them, and as ptopused, verba twi it tduatwi, they were adopted by our gov eminent. M(. Oakeley arrives in this country in a Bri tish sloop of war, am! forthwith Mr. Erskine commences a correspondence with the secre tary of state with the following letter, dated April 17th. " I have the honor to inform you, that 1 have icceived his in: jesty 's commands, to re present lo the government of the United Mates, that his majesty is animated by the most sin cere desire lor an adjustment of the differences, which have unhappily so long prevailed be tween the two countries, the recapitulation of which might have a tendency to impede, if not prevent an amicable tin ierstanding. ' L having been represented to his majes ty s government, that lhe Congress ot tne United States, in their proceedings at the open ing ol die last session, hud evinced an intention ul passing certain laws, which would place the relations ol Great Britain with the Limed States upon an equal fi .otmg in ail respects, with the oilier belligerent povieis, I have accordingly received Ins majes'yV commands, in the event of such laws taking place, to offer on the pan of his majesty, an h ira'de re; ion for the aggression, eu mmitlcd by a British naval rig. in the attack on the l mtecl Mates' fiigate cer, Chesapeake. " Considering the act, passed by the Con gress of the United States on the 1 si of March, (usually termed the non-inummrse act) as having produced a state oi equality, in the re lations of the two heiligerem powers, with rc the United States, 1 have to submit, spect to conformably to instructions, for the considera tion of the American government, such tenus of satisfaction and reparation, as his majesty is induced to believe, will be accepted, in the spirit of conciliation, with which they are sa me proposed. " In addition to the prompt disavowal made by his majesty, oil nein g apprised of the unau thorized act, committed hv his naval officer, mark of the king s displca whose recall, as a sure, from an highly important and honorable command, immediately ensiled, his majesty ss willing to restore the men forcibly taken out of the Chesapeake, ami, if acceptable to the A government, to make a suitable provi merican sion for the inifoilunate stiifeius on i'nat oc casion. Nothing ran be more precise <>r explicit — Every stipulation offered is in obedience to the command of his majesty. The terms are un hesitatingly acceded to. The next day the following letter is received from Mr. Etskinc :— " 1 have the honor of infour.ing you, his majesty, having been persuaded that the honorable reparation which he had caused to he tendered for the ur.autho.ised attack up. n the \merican frigate Chesapeake would he adop ted by the government of the United States in the same spirit of conciliation, with which it was proposed, has instructed m to express his satisfaction, should such happy tinuinaliou of that affair take place—v.ol only as hav.ng re moved a painful cause of difference, but as al fording a lair prospect of a complete and cordi al under standing being re-established between ihc two countries. ihc two countries. " The favorable change in the relations of his majesty with the United States, which has been produced by the act (usually termed the non-inteicoutsc ad) passed m the last session of Congress, was also anticipated by his ma jesty, and lias encouraged u further hope, that a icconsidcration of the existing differences might lead to their satisfactory ad ju.-tmeut. " On these grounds and expectations, 1 am instructed to communicate to the American government, his majesty's determination of sending to the United States, an envoy exlraor dinary invested with lull powers to conclude a treaty on all the points of the relations between the two connûtes. " in the mean time, with a vie to coir; bute to the attainment of so desirable an o' j-.ct ; his majesty would be willing to withdraw his ortleis in Council of .January and November I a 07 , so far ai respects the United Mates, in the persuasion that tnc President would issue a proclamation for the renewal of the inteicourse with G. Briiain, and that whatever difference of opinion sheuM arise in the interpretation of the terms of such an agreement will be re moved in the proposed négociation.** We have here the same clear unambiguous language. The proposition is accepted ; and Mr. Erskine couches his last letter in the fol declaring that he* is authorised lowing ten by his majesty to take tins final step, " in consequence of the accep ance, by the President, as stated in yourletter datrd the f 8th. inst. of the proposals made by me on the part of his majesty, in my letter of the same day, for the icnewal of the intercourse between ti e respective countries, 1 am authorised to De ebne that his majesty's orders in council of Ja unary and November 180', will have teen withdrawn as res peels the L. States oil the 10th day of .Julie next." Let the impartial world pronounce, on this data, whether the arrangements thus offered by I Mr. Lndtine, were, or were not authorised.— The fact L that Mr. Erskine's iustrurtious were penned while the embargo was in fence, and under strong evidence that it. was intended to continue and enforce it. Such a continuance anti enfoicement threatened the trade and. ma nu factures and navigation of England with v.tal injury, 'i'he diwuvml is made, after its rtmo val, and when there was superadde-d moral ccv tai nuit y that the whole lestriclions attending the non-intercourse were also removed. 'J'/un. she was »ufieiing for the want of our raw nia terials, our provisions and naval stores: lur maiket is abundantly supplied, and the distnoval of the arrangements made with Mr. Erskine is bailed by the instantaneous ant! enor mous prostration of tile price of American pro duce in her ports thirty per cent below the pri ces at which it previously stood. But to close every avenue to doubt with re gard to the authority of Mr. Erskine to make these arrangements, on the 15th of June ensu ing, in enclosing the British order of the 26th of April, Mr. Erskine addresses the secretary of state as follows : " In consequence of official communications sent to me from his majesty's government, since the adoption of that measure, I am ena bled to assoie you that it has no connection whatever with the overtures, which I have been authorised to make tithe government of the U. States, and that 1 am persuaded (hat the terms of the agreement, so happily concluded bv the recent n- gociation, will he strictly full filled or. the part of his majesty."

If it be alive to the honor it certainly once possessed, and which we hope it) et re tains, it will at least consign them to the harm less walk of private life. We rejoice to perceive that as yet, on this head, but one feeling animates our countrymen, and that federalists as well as republicans, Last ern as well as Southern m.n, denounce the conduct of the British government with equal spirit. This proves, that, notwithstanding the collisions of party, the great hotly on each s de is at heart sound—Hence, amidst tin: evii wiiich this conduct will produce, it will brine with it pernaps the greatest blessing that could \| be conterred, timon. Honorable men ol a.l classts will unite, and rally round their own , ,, , , . laws, government and rights There are some individuals, who embrace tius occasion, to condemn the credulity, us they are pleaded to style it, of then own govern But, on deliberation, we are satisfit d I ment. they will pl'unouunce a different judgment.— Our government had no reason to question tiie J authoilty ot f,r. Lrskine to ufler the ttrms ot j accommodation agreed upon. 1 hey were hitch, as we had expected would result from our men sures ; they were such indeed, as wert d elated by the true interests ol Great Britain herr.elf. .1 hey were proposed by an agent of the highest rank, were explicitly declared to emanate di rectly from liis government, and were ratified with the utmost solemnity. Lor the breach ol a contract, thus spontaneously and formally made, the annals ofcvilized communities did not furnish a p ecedent. The personal chaîne ter, moreover, of i\ir. Lrskine for intelligence and probity stood fair and even high, so lair and so high that Mr. Canning, thougn a polic ed enemy, in Parliament lepresented 1 uni as el stingvished for his fidelity and talents. Under such citcumstances to have refused to accede to the terms submitted, would have rtmlerer. the Executive obnoxious to the imputation o( indi.posit.on to restore the amicable rela tions ot tlie two nabobs, and have given a han dle to taction to further its worst views. Th wistl un of the act has been attested by the al most un,versai approbation, not to say jo. vvi.h which it was received by the p-ople. It has afforded them too the occasion of proving to the hi n.icxt hostility abroad the sincerity of theii wishes to be on good terms with England. And finally, tiie upprob iioti of Conen -,s, it is b. lieved Without a disv mien', tax lixe.i a - a upon it It has, consequently, served Une '. ellectuaiiy to unite the ; ie of all parties and the several branches tne government, than any other course which could h ive been pursued. This, then, is an inappreciable bless ing, for which we ought to be grateful We may entertain a rational, a confident hope that the nation will rally its whole strength round its government, and that the government, in all its departments, will possess an indissoluble unity in the enaction and execution of its mea sures. What these measures will he it may be pre maure to decide, and useless to conjecture.— The powers applicable to this case possessed bv the Executive are very limited. The measures taken by Congress remove every restriction » bee intercourse with Britain, without vesting the President with any authority to suspend it. Slvoul. 1 , therefore, any immediate legal sus pension he considered requisite, Congress must he sp .eiuHy convened. Beside this step, there are two others within the pa e of Executive power, the recul of Mr. Pinkney, and the re fusal to receive Mr. Jackson, the new minister.

FOR THE DELAWARE GAZETTE. AN ENQUIRY Into the political injustice of the leaders of the peo ple of New-Castle, to the people of the county of New-Castle. No. II. To the Citizens of New-Cu tie County. That principle in ethics, to which an eniigut cned world has long rince bowed its assent,_ that ind vidual anti [tut lie good are the s, —ap plies with more aptitude to a republican govern ment than to any other. Whatever politician a-ts • o ttraty to this axiom, is a traitor to the public, ,nd deserves more the reprobation of an indig nant people than an open, an avowed enemy to nis t mry. Whether the New-Castle leaders have studied die interest of the fexv or tiie Many, in their late numerous innovations, shall be the subject of this number. It requites nn pains to prove, to a we!! inform ed community, that the agricultural interests of the t United S ates are paramount to all others. Boson and experience both demonstrate that nothing so effectually promotes a spirit of agri t ultttre a« the neighbourhood of a markt t town ; and in proportion as the town is large, and the naikei good, rh it spirit is increased, Having premised these facts, : will, with that calmness nr which is due to so interesting a sub acd caod ycr, enquire— 1 st. Wliat are the pretensions of the borough of Wilmington to he the emporium of the state of Delaware ? anti, 2dly. What ha,s been the uniform tenor of the behaviour of the people of the town of New-Cas tle towards that borough, and to the interest of the county in respect to it ? Geographers have stated that no town in the United Slates, of the same size, exports to so great an amount as that of Wilmington. If a healthy situation, and the best on the Atlantic for the manufacture of grain—a population more than ten times greater titan any other in the state, and of a magnitude in proportion, with an excel lent harbour for verse), constitute a sufficiency of advantages to recommend the promotion of the borough of Wilmington to the particular at tention of the people of this stite, she possesses them, with many more which have not been here enumerated. Nothing can more plainly shew the flourishing prosperity of the town of Wil mington, and constqucntiy the ptopriety of ma king it the virtual capital of the state, than the rapidity with which it has arisen to its present prosperity. The first houses in this town were began in the year 1 / 37» and, according to the third edition oT l)r. Morse's Geography, pub lished in 1802, then possessed 500 houses and 3000 inhabitants ; while the town of New-Cas tle, which was founded more than 100 years sooner, (in the year 1627) and is the oldest set tlement on the Delaware, possessed, according to tiie same author, at the same time, only 60 houses, and of course about 360 inhabitants. Notwithstanding the above recited advantages of the borough of Wilmington, it is a fact, which perhaps will not gain credit fifty years hence, that the leaders of the town of New-Castle have not only had the presumptuous vanity to aspire to a cmnpetitorship, hut, by endeavoring to effect their object, have created a spirit of discord in the county, and thereby given a deadly blow to the democratic interest of the state. The people of Wilmington had the power of making their town regulations, through the medium of own proper oflicer.s, by authority of a charter from the cro'wn of Great Britain, yet, notwithstanding the notoriety of this lact, die people of the town of New-Castle, a few years ago, had the officious insolence to send a committee gravely to consult with the prop'e of Wilmington, whether certain spring water should he brought into the streets for the use of the town, or suffered to pursue its natural course. The New-Castle people have reason to reflect with shame and contrition on their bchavious in the year 1 80—, when the subject of a bridge over Christiana creek opposite W ilmmgton ,was under consideration. The cnntemp'a ed bridge, while it promised, and has since realised, the greatest advantages to the borough of Wilming ton, could not in any way affect the interests ol the town of New-Castle ; yet the opposition made by the political leaders of that town or.t raged every principle of political justice, com mun sense and common honesty, 'The villages of Newport, Stanton and Chtistiana had some shadow of interest in opposing the bridge, as it was expected to have made an impediment to the navigation ol the Christiana. The jealousy of the people ot New-Castle induced them to in flame the mmds of the inhabitants of these villa ges to the highest pitch. They were told that if the bii !ge was erected the carrying trtde to Phi ladelphia would be at an end. ' Many of the landholders near these villages were made to be lieve that they would be as far from a market tor their grain as if no tide water was near them — hat the value of real property w ould decrease one half. Public meetings were held and inflam atory handbills were circulated,to firs the minds oi the people-—so far they effected their ob ject, and tiie lailure of the democratic party in in the succeeding state election s the con se quence. Jn the contention about the bridge lue villages above mentioned, and the in terests attached to them, became connected with the people of New-Castle in opposition, and notwithstanding the promises that were made to <1 by each other to the last, after leaving HU no sure unaffected which envy or jealousy could mea ;ert....alter saying every tning in opposition which folly and falsehood could dictate....after creating the most ruinous discord and animosity in the county, and trampling the interests of the democratic party under loot, the New-('asi]e I •I tiers made secret offers to withdraw their opposi tion to tiie bridge, provided certain piivileges would Ire allowed them, and to ieavc.be villages and their interests to stand by themselves. It was ough to blow tiie county into a [1 ime, and not e inflict a deep wound into tiie vitals of a party, which after actual victory was still in the high road of further prosperity, but to basely desert their confederates in opposition. W hen good sense and good policy prevailed ov«r the mischievous machinations of jealousy and ignorance, the bridge was er e'er /:—its im pediments to the nav gation were found to be tri fling, and all men were convinced of its public utility ; the New-Castle leaflets were left to suf fer the contempt of their betrayed confederates, and, like debauched gamesters, already ruined at play, instead of turning their attention to indus ny and economy, to plunge madly into new ex cesses, to divert the attention of the public from their past enorinit and drown the recollection of lost confidence. MARCUS. FOR THE DELAWARE GAZETTE. Tu the Democratic Citizens of New-Castle County. Number 2. It has often been said, and as often been laugh ed at for its absurdity, 1 Hat there exists a necessa ry connection between any two hl.-as, which in genuity can bring together. 1 wi-b 1 understood more of this doctrine of comirction, that 1 might more successfully developc the intactible chain, which linked the ideas, of moving the Court Mouse, and the New-Castle and French-Town turnpike road. Let ns see how it stands by way of proposition—" There is a road proposed from New-Castle to Freni h-Town,-therefore the Court House ought to be moved !" which was to be demonstrated. Most admirable logick ! the proposition only wants form and substance, to make the conclusion quite evident ! I ran think of but one solution to save tiie credit of these gentlemen; they intend, literally, to move the Court House :—the circuity ant! bad state of the present road is the most serious obstacle to this project: the turnpike toad proposed cuts up this difficulty by the toots. Surely this road will " facilitate the communication," with the Red Lion, as well as French-Town. But how do the illuminati of Christren propose to convey the unwieldy mass ol brick and mortar thence to tiie site they have fixed upon ? or how is it to mount the hills to Staunton ? Hoc opus, hie la bor est ! Our Wilmington friend« have an an swer in readiness for this anticipated difficulty— they order these things admirably in Wilming ton ! It being once settled by the wise men of Red-Lion, of Staunton, and Christeen, the inha bitants of the borough will kindly save them all the trouble and expence, and generously ask no thing in return hut the—benefit ! They will of fer their Town-Hall—an act of the General As sembly, wilhout aid of magick, will ea-ily change its name—and those that set the stone roiling will wonder at their infatuated folly in supposing they could stou it. No one doubts lhat, in such an .event, the Town-Hail will receive its original destination—it stands an eternal memento, of the •dans and intentions of its founders—and happi ly form« a mean of defeating the very design it was built to effect.

This the Lawyers ili tell you is because the people do not know how se a good thing. Be it so, such is the fact— to the inference is plain. (To bt Continued.) FGR THE GAZETTE* A HINT TO MARCUS. Mr. Editor, In your paper of the 26th inst. T ob served a piece under the signature of Mar cus, portentous of conflicting storms. The paragraphist appears to be a member of that hord, who look on New Castle and its citi zens with an eye beaming with a malignant and jealous enmity. Actuated bv this spi rit, he comes forward with declamatory in vective, promising the public, not an inves tigation of facts that will reform the politics of the state, but a reiteration of old tales, ge nial to the interests of Federalism, alias Toryism, that will renew the schisms scarcely healed up. Such lucubratory ex ercises will to every reflective mind be —— Confirmation, Strong as proof frsm Holy Writ." that the spn it of '76 does not flourish in his b s >m with its pristine purity. If one single spark remains, let it, combined with my en treaty, induce him to lay aside his pen, cease in the commencement of his career to disturb tepublicans with baneful discord, nor give to the vigilant emissaries of Fede ralism an opportunity to display their disu niting talents. If the itching passion for literary fame protnps the sell-called Mar cus to exhibit himself to the public, permit me to inform him that on the promised sub ject the harvest of laurels has been already reaped by an honorable Senator,,—the glean ings left are extremely worthless: nor has his appearance been sufficiently preposses sing to excite a single wish in the public mind to see him again upon the stage. A DEMOCRAT. FOR THE GAZETTE. A Word to the Wise is sufficient. 'Tis pleasing to go to meeting, let folks say vvhat they will to the contrary.

I have often beto in Wilmington before, and often in Philadelphia, therefore can with plea sure say, I believelthe practice to be confined to ortly few.

Rid ing-master and Grand Equerry to the Doge cf Vc nice. Directions for choosing a Horse. " The height of a horse is peifect !y immaterial, provided he is higher behind that? before. Nothing is more pleasing to a traveller than the sensa tion of continually getting forward; whereas the tiding a horse of a con trary make is like swarming the ban nisters of a staircase, when though perhaps you really advance, you k el as if you were going backwards. "Let him carry his head low,that he may have an eye to the ground, and see the better where he steps. " The less he lifts his fore legs, the easier he will move for the rider • and he will likewise brush all the stones out of his way, which might otherwise throw him down. If he I urns out his toes as well as he should do, he will then disperse them to the right and the left, and have not the trouble Oi kicking the same stone a second time. * * * * * * " A bald face, wall eyes, and white legs (Ifyour horse is not a grey one) is tobe preferred ; as, in the night, although you may ride against what you please yourself, no one will ride against you. " His nose cannot project too much from his neck ; for, by keeping a constant tight reign on him, you will then sit as firm as if you were held on. " A horse's ears cannot well be too long ; a judicious rider steers his course by fixing his eyes between them. Were he cropt and that as close as we sometimes see them now a-days, in a dusky evening the ri der might wander the Lord knows where. * * * * * * # " I have found many persons who have purchased horses of me, very in. quisiliveand troublesome about their eyes . indeed as much so as if their eyes were any way concerned in the action of the animal. As I know they have not, I give myself but little trouble about them. If a rider is in full possession of his own. what his horse has is perfectly immaterial ; having probably bridle in his a mouth to direct him wliere to go, anti to lift him up with again if he tumbles down. Any gentleman, choosing, indeed, to ride without a bridle, should look pretty sharp at a horse's eyes before he buys him ; be well satisfied with his method of go in g : be very certain that he is do eile, and will stop short at a "wohey;" and. after all be rather scrupulous where he rides him. Let no man tell me that a blind horse is not a match for one with the best of eyes when it is so dark that he cannot see ; and when he can it is to be supposed that the gentleman upon his back can see as well as he ; and then, if he rides with a bridle, what has he t<? fear ? I flatter myself I have proved, as clear as clay, that eyes are of lit tle consequence ; and as I • , am, no doubt, the first author, that has made it known, my readers, if they loose no time, may mount themselves at Al dridges or the Khcdarium, as welt, and for half the money that they would have clone before I let them into this secret. " Be sure to buy a broken-knCe'd horse whenever he falls in your way ; the best bit of flesh that ever was crossed will certainly come down someday or another where one that has fallen (and scarified as himself pretty much) never will fall again, if he can help it. Spavins, splints, corns, mallenders, sallenders, &c. &c. being all cura ble.are beneath your notice, A few of these little infirmities in your sta ble is always a subject of conversa tion, and you may, perhaps, now and then want one, it will likewise justify you to your lady in emblem ishmg your book case with Brack cn, Gibson, Bartlett, and Griffith : tx cellent authors in their w . „ ay,and ex tremely useful ! for you will have no be sending for an apothe occasion to cary upon every trifling ailment in your family, but will know yourself hovv to make up a good stout and ef fectual dose of physic for vour 'iuif'e and servants, in the gooseberry sea son, and at the Jail of the leaj. ■ c . } ' V0U hI recommend a long tail, •r 'u 1S - l ° ^ lac ^ ^ ove or money ; tf that is not to be got, buy a horse ) vit ". a rat tail, if possible ; though inferior in point of convenience to the former, there is a je ne scat quoi of comicality about it that inclines to merriment whenever it makes its ap pearance.-— I here is one inconveni attending long tails in the sum ence mer (when the poor animals have most need of them ;) and that is, hor ses lull of grass are very subject to scourings ; in this" case ride your horse with his tail in a bag, or else he 3nn0y * V0U "'

Whilst employed in answering it, I yesterday re ceived your note of the 20th July from Bor deaux.

The emperor cannot but re gret, that the many proofs, given to France at cti'ical moments ; sn many steps taken to cherish the most intimité relations with her ; and the new assurances that had been given of his constant adntrence to the pi nciples which governed h.s continental po icy, should have been given way to the first impression, which tumors created and amplified by ma'evolence, had t-vi ieutly made upon a cabinet, with which ah his inclinations I i! him to unite, upon a powerful aliy, whose friendship never can be come a matter of indifféré. .* since- it is found ed up nt .uterests reciprocal U common to both empires. fiank, plain, Sc undisguised explana tions, wtiich ! believe to be u'one worthy of the emperor Napoleon, have had ill part, the effet I ex. ect-.-d.

No. 8. Note from count tie Ci'.ampagny to count de Metternich. Paris, March 10,1809. The undersigned, minister lor foreign ti affairs, has given an account, to his majesty the emperor, his master, of the communi cation which was made to him, by his ex cellency! count de Metternich, upon the re turn of count de Mier, and the determi nation which the cabinet of Vienna has ta ken to place its armies upon a war-fooling. The emperor Napoleon has been afflic iC ted at this determination. 1 he armaments of Austtia, the unfriendly conduct of its Bos.-, ta minister at Constantinople an.l in the writings against France, circulate a pro fusely throughout the monarchy, inducing his majesty to believe that the English were not without influence at Vienna, determin ed him to stop on the Meurihe and Saone, the march of those divisions destined for Boulogne, Ilresl and Toulon. IIis majesty, at the same time instructed the princes of the confederation of the Rhine, to hold their troops in readiness, at all events, that they might if necessary return them, and be in a condition, if be should fail, to repel every aggressor. " But after the declaration of M. Met ternich, his majesty has given orders, to the troops poste 1 in the interior of France, to proceed to the Rhine, to watch over the safety of his allies and confederates; and, that the troops of those stales should with out delay, be placed on the war establish ment. Thus armies will be .pposed to ar mies. The commencement of the disturb ance, the threats and the armaments, will he made bv Austria. It is for her to say when they shall cease. As no difference exists between the two courts, and as the treaty, which was followed by the evacuation of Biatnnau by the French army, affords no point for dispute between die two powers, his majesty has no idea of what is preten ded : but, on ins part, wishes to see Europe in the enjot ment of security and peace, and his own people reaping the f ruits of the economy that would succeed that event. 1 he undersigned is charged to state those wishes to M. Metternich. " He requests his excellency, fcc. (Signed) CHAMPAGNY. DEFENCE Oj Mr. Jefferson's Administration. No. II. FROM THF. NATIONAL INTELLIGENCER, Abolition of the Internal Taxes. This measure was p-nly recommended by Mr. Jeffi-ison. 'Tn.it the public sentiment was decidedly hostile ti the continuance of the i in •final taxes cannot he doubted. It is equally •clear that this hos'iiity had eminently contribu ted to the elevation of Mr. Jefferson. It WdP 'iiercfore proposed in unequivocal terms in his first message to Congress, Before, however, this step was taken, or con temporaneous with it, a great reduction W..S made in the habitual cxpenifituie»-In the navy flepait ii. it 200,000 dollars ami m the \va' department 522,000 dollars were ict.cncbed_ I'li these were ; '.fled various other diminutions ifexpenees, with the former, ext eedmg the an • Il a I sum of one million ofdollais, and siupas« 'Ugllie a mount of the taxes abolished about 3000 000 dollars. l'he measure was, nevertheless, pronounced by the opponents of the administration, •juw:' nd effects, the most pernicious, predicted as likely to flow from it. /, large portion of these predictions, haring been falsified by experience, require at present no not'ce. The rcmitnin-/' (■sources have proved nut only rqu.il to cvrry "xisting engagement of the government, but likewise to a inci'c rapid discharge of the public debt titan that for which the national faith was p'edged. Every one acquainted with the hidnry of ne U. State» knows mat after the revolutionary war, it was a general, not to say universal i im pression, that the great power of taxation, vest ed in the general government, should be over imported < ommoditie. 1 depression arose undoubtedly from the legitimate relationship bc 1 ween the nutme of ; government tedcial in its , and a tax whose equal operation striicture • oil'd only be secured by the general onvern .nent—Under this impression and the " most im p ntunate liitreaties of Congre«, 12 state- -j short time before the adoption of the constitution, nail agreed to vest Congress with the power of laving a duty ol live pci cent on imported am. cie«.— Rhode lsh ' l10 t then constituting more -..iii .1 sixtict.i part ot t.te union, alone resisted tins measure, laut fur her resistance, the nowei voiiM have been conferred, and the new con stitution would probably never have been fra med When framed it gave Congress abeuhtte air' er elusive power over duties on lori«n co n mo.lilies, thereby adding another to the nume rous proofs that this was considered us the ap propriate resource or .he general government It gave.ut ti same time, a co/uurnut power, with the states, over every » 01 ., <e of revenue, with the express view ot enabling a gov erinnern charged with the national defence, on any great emergency to call into activity the undivided re sources of ihe community. This was tlie only which this reason, perhaps a fallacious one» on Ao sweeping power oi taxation was confided, cordmgly Congress in the first instance, confined themselves to the imposition of duties on exter At a subsequent period the in nal commerce. ternal taxes were resorted to, under an alledged l he same cause gave rise to want of revenue. This ■d diiect tax on Ends, houses and slaves, cause ceasing, was it net proper to repossess the states ot these resources ? 'Ibis alone, abstracted from all other considerations, would have been a sufficient justification of the measure. But in addition to these dicte weit other to «'ent re tsoiis. The internal revenues fostered a system of ex tensive patronage dangerous to a republican £Ov Tive hundred officers were employed eminent. in their collection, and two hundied thousand dollars annually expended, amounting to twenty per cent, while the « xpence of collecting the ex ternal duties amounted to only five per cent, without producin»; any diminution in tlic ag gregate ex pence by a decrease of duties. Here then is an annual saving of one hundred and fil ty thousand dollars. It is not practicable to es timate with precision the public injut ; arising fiom the existence of five hundred useless offi however, to say It is within bounds cets. that their labor or ingenuity, if ïi a final degree productive would exceed a hundred thousand dollars. Some respect unquestionably was due by the rrpiesentativrs of a lie-e people- to the established impression that an excise is hostile to liberty. In a state of society differing in one leaped from that of all other nations, in protecting the unmo lested exercise of industry in rh.it.nvli chosen by itself, it is certainly of importance litrle short ol infinite, to resist the establishment of a system which gives to government the conti .1 and di rection of every branch of internal manufacture ; enabling them thcielbre to depress ot elevate, according to the measure of taxation applied, the condition of every class of citizens—a power, so nearly approximated to despotism, as to have become hateful to every nation not degraded to the lowest condition. It lias been said that the repeal of these taxes operated to the local injury of a part of the union. To exhibit the local effects of the repeal, w< have drawn out the following table. The Jirst column exhibits the number of représentatives to which each state is entitled—the second specifies the sums paid in each state, it. the year one thou sand eight hundred and one—the third shews the quota of the whole tax, which, for that yeai each state would have paid, had it been as-es-c.I in the ratio of numbers—the f mirth exnibits the gain, and the last the loss of each state, on that principle, arising from the repeal. n»zH OS»? s zr „ a 3 ll 3 'W .1 J 03 . cr a X * ö p > —!

Extract of a letter from a Gentleman in Calx to - lie editor of this paper, dated Jane 1 1£U9. We yesterday received the confirmed it account of the surrender of 14.000 Hirn under Marshal Soult. A British ship of the line and two frigates, under Admirai Furves remain in the harbor ; the hack part of the Peninsula is now very strong ly fortified—upwards of 1000 men have been fur some lime past at work at them ; in addition to which they have cut mrough the Isthmus which joins it to the .Main and Cadiz is now completely insular—it is then fore secure, let the event be what it ntav. OI the Spanish cause, however, the most sceptical have not a doubt ; the French t'-iops, in small actions in various parts, hat e been so completely cut up that they cannot long attempt to keep possession The harbor contains at pie-sent upwards of 30 American vessels of all discriptions_. American produce, of course, verv low. Some of them are preparing to sail foj England after the tenth of June. jj FOR THE DELAWARE GAZETTE. Mr. Jones, A late number of yenr Gazette contains two communications respecting the Caval ry of the first brigade—'lie one under the signature of " System the other " A Trooper." Il l mistake not, the Govern or and the Cavalry are indebted to one wri* ter for the sage remarks contained in both. The Governor would not have known that so experienced a person in Cavalry tilt lies had passed unnoticed, and the Cavalry would have been ignorant of the cause why the squadron was nit organized, had not this military genius made his appearance in your paper. The statement he has given of the evolutions he has seen performed hv the officers of Cavalry of the first brigade was intended, no doubt, as a self recom mendation to tlie Governor ; but if he cur. not proJuce a better claim f„r the offi ce 10 which he aspires, he will not, J believe, have an opportunity very srjon ofi display ijigto the officers at present commanding the two troops, his capacity of instructing them. As it is but a short time since thm System" became a Trooper, it cannot l-e pposed, by any person but himself, th.-t Sll he can be well acquainted wi ll the evolup ons 0 » Cavalry. At the time the Cavalrv wei e galhpptngin Indian fie. as he suppo ses, they must have been advancing from the right or left quarter or half ranks or horn the right and left of the troop hv 'files In his next attempt to he a trooper I hope he iv,.I be more correct in his terms. It will be lequisite for him, in case he expects to be honored with the command ... Major of Cavalry (which ht present he has no claim to) that he should manifest a capacity to in struct the cfl^tfrs it: Cavalry tactics'.

Although from the caméléon character ol the British orders in council, it is nearly as futile as it is difficult to analyse them, yet there are features in the late order of the 24ch of May, that it may be of some service distinctly to notice. 1. The arrangements made by Mr. Ers* kine, it is said, are not such as were author ised by his Majesty's instructions or Here is such as his majesty can approve ." - an avowal by tile British government oi an inflexible purpose, unlimited by time or either not to make a proper circumstance reparation for the outrage commute, on the Cheaepeake, or not to rescind the prin ciple of her orders of the 7ih ol January and ! Uh of November. relaxations of the old 2. The temporary orders in council arc all coupled with one withdrawal sweeping condition, to wit : a of protection from any vessel that shall at itually hlockad tempt to enter any port " it V of war. ed by any ot Ins majesty's ships f 1» there not reason to fear that the whole o the enemy pons will ill this way be blockad ed by a naval force altogether insufficient for the complete investment requisite to a legal blockade, and that vessels leaving pons thus "blockaded," will, on their re-J turn voyage, be seized on the high seas Ly British cruizers, and carried into British lie ports lor adjudication for a violation of the blockade ? '1 here is the more reason to apprehend that the species &t blockade here referred to it not that recognized bv the the law of nations, as, if it were, there would have been no reason for such a provision. 3. The order professes to indemnify A merican merchaots,indeed, to avoid anv in Did terference with their adventures under tile arrangements made with Mr Erskine. But this will be luuntl on investigation, to be an idle pretext,. The larger number of Ame rican vessels were destined for, and will only have entered, British ports, with commo dities in part meant for consumption in En gland,in part for consumption on the conti tie. nent. 1 he value of these commodities must materially depend on a sale fur them on the continent. This, being almost totally cut off by the order of April 26th, substituted in the room of the previ ous orders, the prices of those commodi in British ports have actually sunk, lies and may lie expected to fa'l much more ; and the American merchant, instead of making a profit, will incur a ruinous loss. A large portion of these shipments to Eng and were, doubtless, meant to be deposit ed in that country, with a view to future transportation to the continent. This re source being now almost entirely cut off, a ble great and steady depression of prices will be inevitable. By the disavowal of the British ministry, so the order of April last comes into opera ration in lieu of the orders of January and »ovember, 1807- Now the order of A pril, although otherwise represented in most be of the public prints, will lie found even mnr, rigorous and oppressive to our trade than the preceding orders. Un 1er ihese orders, the direct trade between the United States and the colonies of the enemies of Britain, that from the United States to the conti a tient of Europe through a British port, and the transportation ot American produce, cotton excepted, through a British port, to to enemy ports, under certain conditions, were allowed. By the order of April they are, with trifling exceptions- interdicted The principal trade authorised with the continent by this order is to the pons of the Baltic, allowed, no doubt by Britain, fur the express purpose of obtaining naval sup plies through American bottoms, a trade which will be likely to be inhibited, as soon as it is seen to have this effect, aud which, independently of this circumstance, would be ot'liule value to us, as but a small poi portion of our produce would there find a market. Besides this trade, the order al lows a trade to the southern parts of Italy, comprising Naples and a part of the territo ry of the Church, the whole of but inconsi derable importance, compared with the ports of Genoa & Leghorn in the Northern part of Italy, with which all trade is inter dicted. To this maybe added a qualified trade to certain parts of Spain and Portu gal, dependent upon their possession by England, which are, however, too trifling and precarious io he of much value to us. Under this view of the subject, the arrange made with Mr. Erskine, attended by ments their recent disavowal, will tie found to ope rate as a mere decoy, the emollient lenitives of the order of may 24th to the contrary notwithstanding. Nat. Intel . In our paper of this day will be found of the instructions produced by Mr, a copy British parliament as the Canning in the basis on which the late arrangement was enterred into by Mr. Erskine. It appears to us extremely improbable that these were the only instructions on hich Mr. Erskine proceeded in the négo v\ ciation at this place, and for these reasons. Erskine, in his first letter, as a pre Mr. i'or the renewal iiminary to any overture hat was deem of intercourse, offered ■ ed adequate satisfaction for the affair oi the Where, in these ittstructi Chesapeake, ons, is any instruction relative to the affair of the Chesapeake ! It is not even mentioned ; and the presumption is that there was a pre Vious communication,the confidential nature of which possibly prevented its publication. Indeed in the instructions pu> lisbed a .. former dispatch" is mentioned, the con tents of which, however, are not disignated. A aain— -These instructions require a foi mal recognition by the U. States of three conditions, to one at least of which the government ol the u. States could never accede. U m ty well he doubted whether Mr. Erskine would so tar have deviated from positive instruction» as to make an aratigemem without the recognition of any one of them. Mr. Oakely, tue beam ol the dispatches which were the basis of the V arrangement made in this city, arrived jp t ic f ; ). States in the Rosamond on the 3d of April, which ves-els brought London dates to the !)th The instructions published are of February. •st sixteen day. dated the 23d of January, at : a prior to the departure of Mr. O. irom t-omron, and in this no mention is made c. Mr. Oakely s re-J the letl as tbe hearer. It seems to who was cial lie a rational deduction that Mr. O. was ■. - iected as the bearer cf instructions of a stut owiit dale, also possibly of a confidential nu to and therefore not published. About the time that Mr. Oakely sailed also, must the ministerial speakers in Parliament and the ministerial prints conveyed the idea that the to 1 British ministry confidently expected an amicable adjustment of all differences with America.—• ment Did they expect ir from the Instructions now published ? Dirt they expect it from the requi and sition of humilitating conditions from us, in consequence of which they would do us the favor to tux us no longer ? The idea is absurd. to In short, it is evident that these were not the only instructions given to Mr Erskine, although they might have composed that part of them which it lias been deemed politic to m pub tie. ll)td , the Mr. Erskine's Instructions. Copy of a dispatch from Mr. Secretary Canning the to the hon. D. M. Erskine j dated Foreign Office, 23d Jan. 1 80b". in Sin, If there really exists in those indu iduals who • to hive a leading share in the new adminis tration of the United Slates, that disposition to come to a complete and cordial undcistauding with G. Britain, of which you have received from them such positive assurance m meeting that disposition it would be useless and înpi'ofit ble to iecur to a recapitulation 01 the causes from which the differences between the tv#o goveri - ments have arisen, or of the arguments already so often repeated in snppcntof tuat system of retaliation to which his majesty na» unwillingly had rec ourse. That system his majesty must unquestionably continue to maintain, unless the object of it can be otherwise accomplished. But after the profession on the part of so ma ny of the leading ministers of the government of the U. States, of a sincere de-ire to contribute that object in a manner which should render the continuance of the system adopted by tue British government unnecessary, it is thought right that a fair opportunity should he afforded to the A meiican government to explain its meaning and give proof of its sincerity. The exten-ion of the interdiction of the American harbors to the ships of war of c r nice as well us »f G. Britain, is as stated in my former dispatch, an acceptable symptom - fa system of impartiality towards both belliger ents ; tlie first that has been publicly muuilt sl ed by the American government. Tue extention of the non-importation act to other belligerents is equally proper ill thi view. These measures remove these preli minary objections which must otherwise have precluded any useful or amicable discussion. In this state of things, it is possible for Great Britain to entertain propositions, which while such manifest partiality was shewn to her enemies, were not consistent till'.?: with her dignity o>- her interests. :imH \w\ From the report of your com er Mr. Madison. Mr. OalDun, and Mr. Sm,h, it appears 1st. That the American government is pre pared in the event of his majesty's consenting to withdraw the orders in council of January and November 180', to withdraw contempora neous'y on its part the interdiction ol it» har bors to ships of war, anti all non-intercourse anti non-impoi talion acts, as far as respects Great Britan, leaving them in force w ith respect to France, and the powers which adopt or act under her decrees. 2d. (What is of the utmost importance, as precluding a new source of misumleistanding which might arise after the adjustment of the other questions.) That America is willing to renounce, during the present war, the preten sion of carrying on in war time all trade with the enemy's colonies, from w hich she was ex cluded during peace. 3d. G ieat Britain, for the purpose of secur g the operation of the embargo, and of the m bone fide intention of America to prevent her ci tizens from trading with France, awd the pow ers adopting and acting under the French De crees, is to be considered as being at liberty to rapture all such American cessais as may be found attempting to trade with the ports ol any of these powers ; without which security for the observance of the embargo, the raising it nominally with respect to G. Britain alone, i aid in fact raise it with refpect to all the w world. On these conditions his majesty would con ; sent to withdraw the Orders in council of Ja nuary and November 1807, so far as respects America. As the first and second of these conditions are the suggestions of persons in authority in a America to you, and as Mr. Pinkney has re cently, (hut the first time) ex, 'ssed to me his opinion that there would be no indisposition on me part of his government to the enforcement by the naval power of Great Britain of the re gulationS of America with respect to I.ancc, he and the countries to which these regulations continue io apply, but that his government was to itbt-lf aware, that without such enforcement those 'egulations must he altogether nugatory ; l flatter my self that there will he no difficult v in obtaining a distinct and official r cognition ic of these conditions from the American govern !)th ment. For this purpose you are at liberty to com are municate this dispatch in cxlense to the Ame .... Secretary of state. rican F non receiving through you. on the part of s yj the American government, a distinct and offi cial ie< »•grntion of tire three mentioned condi tions, his majesty rv 11 lose no time in sending to America a formal and regular treaty As however, it is pus-ihle that the delay which must intervene befoie the actual conclusion ot » treaty may appear to the American govern l.t to deprive this arrangement of part ot ns benefit-, 1 am to authorize you, if the American gov rn ment should be desirous of acting upon the , 1 - greement before it is reduced to a regular form, (either by the immediate repeal of the emhaigo, and the other acts in question, or by engaging to repeal them on a particular day) to assure the American government of" his majesty's readiness to meet such a disposition in the manner best cal culated to give immediate etfect. Upon the receipt here of an official note, con taining an engagement for adoption by the A merican government of the three conditions a hove specified, his majesty will be prepared on the faith of such engagement, either immediate (ifthe repeal shall have been immediate in Amè nes) or on days specified by the Ana r ca go ven, ment for that repeal, lecip'oci ly to recall the Orders In Council, without Waiting for the conclusion of die treaty ; and yon are authorized in the circumstances herein described, to make such reciprocal engagements on his majesty's behalf.

THE MO 1 HER TO HER CHILD. Welcome thou little dimpled stranger, O ! welcome to mj fond embrace ; vard of pain and danger, Thou eet Stilt let me press thy cherub face. Dear source of many a mingled feeling : How did I dread, yet wish thee here ! While hope and fear by turns prevailing, Served but to render thee more dear,. How glowed my heart with exultation, So late ihe anxious seat of care, When first thy voice of supplication, Stole sweetly on thy mother's ear. What words could speak the bright emotion That sparkled in thy father's eye, When to his fond paternal bosom He fondly press'd the darling boy ! Oh '. that thou may'st, sweet babe, inherit Each virtue of his heart most dear ; His manly grace, his matchless merit, Is still thy doating mother's prayer. While on thy downy couch reposing. To watch thee is my tender toil r veet bine eyes unclosing, I mark thy 1 fondly hail thy cherub smile. Smile on, sweet babe, unknown to sorrow, Still brightly beam thy heavenly eye ; And may'st the dawn of ev'ry morrow Shed blessings on my darling boy. ï rom the Boston Mirror. H AP PIN ES- A F R ACME N T. ■*# The scenes of my life have been sad, said a poor Frenchman, who had scrambled tip one of the most précipitons mountains ofNorth Wales, and was now pensively lean ing on his stick.and casting a mourn ful look toward the wide expanse of waters, which bounded his pros pect—"The scenes of my life have been sad," repeated he, and a tear si- I lentlv stole down his cheek, ns the painful recollcc'ton of the past again \| strttek his soul—" I have pursued the bubble happiness all over 'lie world, j and have lived but to find it a phan- j tom of the brain—I have suffered the j torture of the inquisition in Spain— I have been chained to the gallics in j Italy—I have starved on the moun- \| tains of Switzerland—I have groaned as a slave -n Tut key—I have lan guished beneath the republican ty rami) m France—and, lastlv, I have been whipped as a vagabond in Eng land—and I am grown grey in misery, and old age has overtaken me in \vetch"dness !"—The tears' streamed plen »fully down the chteks of the unfortunate old man, as this painful retrospect oesented itself to his mind. The sun was jnrt casting his rays over the waters, and the west was tinged with the bright streak- of ver million and gold. Notabieath ruf fled the surface of 'he deep—not a sound invaded the ear—all vt as atill r.css and serenity, except when the last notes of the ascending skylark sunk on the air while the feathered songster himself was lost in distance. He insensibly felt his spirits tran quilized by the universal harmonv which seemed to reign aloud—The balm of peace descended upon his soul—He looked upon the wander, tags of his past days with a calm, but meiancholy regret—It was too late to b. gin life anew ; and, after having spent his youth in toil and vexation, he now felt that a little rest was ne cessary. When the sun had sunk beneath the horison he laid h'.Tisclf on the turf, and soon dropped into a sweet, and uninterrupted slumber In the morning he rose icfreshed. Beneath the wide spreading branches cf a venerable tree, he constructed a simple hut—Ilis meat was supplied by the roots and the herbs of the valley ; and the crystal spring, which bubled by his dwelling, afforded him a wholsomc beverage. Every evening beheld him sinking peacefully to repose c . 1 his bed of leaves ; and every dawning day saw him rise refreshed and cheerful. In a short time he discovered that he was happy—The discovery astonished him. He was insolated—an outcast—depending on the spontaneous products of the earth for sustenance, and only sheltered from the inclemency of the weather, by a cabin, over which the den of the wild beast possessed many ad vantages.—Under such circumstan ces, that he could be happy, was to him incomprehensible. After mus ing some time on the strangeness of the fact, he found out all the mise ries of his pass life were to be impu ted to himself; that they arose from his own restlessness and ambition ; and that the true philosqpher's stone, which converts every thing it touches into gold, the real source of all hu man happiness is Contentment. CUSTOM OF THE SAMN1TES. The Samnites had a certain custom, which in so small a republic, and es pecially in their situation, must have produced admirable effects. The young people were all convened in one place, and their conduct exami ned. He that was declared the best of the whole assembly, had leave given him to take which girl he pleas, ed for his wife ; the person that had been declared second best, chose af ter him, and so on. Admirable in stitution !—the only recommendati on that young men could have on this occasion was owing to virtue, and to the services done to their country ; he who had the greatest share of en dowments, chose which girl he liked out of the nation. Love, beauty, chastity, birth, and even wealth itself, were all in some measure, the dow ry. A nobler and grander recom I pense, less chargable to a petty state, and more capable of influencing both \| sexes, couid scarcely be imagin ed. j It appears by the foregoing, that j high collars, short jackets, and sh ov j elccl nosed boots, had nogreat influ ence with the Samnites, and which, j together with a few more polite ac \| quirements, such as swallowing two or three gills of gin or brandy be. fore breakfast sitting over a card-ta ble till two or three o'clock of a Sun day morning, halfstupified with wine, and then reeling home to their lod. gings, conclude the scene with dam uing and cursing the good people of the house for going to bed so soon, &c. constitutes the greater part of ihe recommendations of a number of our present young men.

While here our state ol Almost society exhibited the strongest contrast, all our citizens, accustomed by their own labors the means of a cojnfortiib e subsist to acquire and eventually of a handsome independ ence. . ence, felt no inducement to subvert the regular order of things, but, on the contrary, were im their pelled by the strongest motives to preset government and laws, to whose beneficent influ ence they, justly ascribed a large share of their prosperity. Ilad Aaron Burr possessed an un erring wisdom he would never have planned his nefarious scheme ; but it is the characteristic of profligate ambition always to appreciate the tools with which it is to work, and rasfly to over look obstacles to the attainment ol ils whiles. Fixing its eye on supreme power, it is so daz zled by its splendor as to overlook all the dilti culties that intervene. An intoxication of the brain is produced that riots entirely on hope, that rejects the calculations of sober sense, and infers that the wheel of fortune, dexterously managed, will turn out nothing but prizes. Such is the and perhaps fortunate,'' inebriation infatuated invariably attendant on the indulgence of those violent passions that prey on the felicity of others. Here then was the strong rock on which this nun's schemes were founded. But, although every man possessed oi a sound mind knew that the treasonable schemes of Aa ron Burr must eventually fail, yet much doubt hung over the period of their entire abor tion, and the events that nvght previously inter vene. Conducting a systematic plan of the deep est deception, veiling his objects under the most plausible disguises, holding forth the strongest temptation to tw o of the most inordinate passions of rnan, the love of riches and of powei, attempt ing to enlist under his banner the dissatisfaction scattered through the country, many of our best patriots trembled for the consequences. Burr had manifestly calculated upon gaming the army, and upon bribing them as well as the western people with the immense millions of lands own ed by the government of the United States ; and with the riches ol the Mexican mines. These were known to be tempting, eminently fitted to secure and consolidate the whole unsound part of the un'nn, which onre embodied would have required a resort to force, and have pro duced collisions that would only have ended af ter the prodigal effusion of human blood. It was to avcit these dreadful evils that Mr. Jeffer son took his measuies, which we all know, were conducted with a prudence, a vigor and secrecy, that equalled, if they did not surpass, the best wwlies of the patriot. So happily were the a means adapted to the end, that without noise or tumult, and with very inconsiderable expence, the head of the conspiracy and most of his sub ordinate instruments, were brought to the bar of justic-, whe.ie they received tne conclusive a " a id of justice from their country, however, fiom the most unaccountable causes, they were screened from the penally of the laws. Thus gloriously did Mr. Jrfierson display at the same time the powers of his own mind, and the capacity of a republican government honestly administered to guard itseil against the most dangeious machinations. From these happy re sults the icpublican system has acquired, in (he minds of all reflecting men, show leputatioti and strength ; it has shown itself perfectly compe tent m crush the ablest concerted plans of trea son, formed under auspices probably more pro pitious than will ever hereafter accur. Who ill in future attempt to subvert die liberties of U lus country, after this awful failure.' Who, on beholding the fate of Aaron Burr, a vagrant and an outcast roving the earth in search of an asy lum, will dare to tread in his footsteps, with the hope of a better fate ? The failure of his nefari ous schemes lias in fact given new life blood to republicanism, It has added an additional rork to its foundatio is. It has illustriously prove I that a government seated in the affections of a free and hapj y people lias as little to fear from corruption wiiliin asfrr.in violence without. Freedum of the seas. It has been the business of the tiry prints in of this country to impress the public mind with of an opinion, that the doctrine of the freedom of of in a chimerical project, the offspring the sens, of Bonaparte's brain. Tory writers and toiy talke'S, are not altogether so ignorant;' and it is not to be imagined that the true sons of A in merica are to be duped with such bold faced in and false assertions. The proposition for an union of nations for the maintenance of mari time rights was originally made by Catharine m the Great empress of Russia, to the several leading powers of F'.urope, and was bv the m acceded to with the exception of Great Britain. This occurred thirty years ago. F'ranee, Spain, Denmark and Sweden, were members of the in league which has been long known by the a name of the army of neutrality. The princi a ples of this enlightened coalition were compri in zed by Catharine in the five following articles. 1- That all neutral ships may freely navUii'e from port to port, and on the coasts oi nutions po at war. 1 hat the effects belonging to the subjects of warring powers, shall be free in all neutral vessels, except contraband merchandize. he 3. . oat as to what shall constitute contra band merchandize, Uwe articles shall be regu lated and defined by treaty. the 4. That to determine what is meant by a blocked up port, it is only to he understood of one xvnich is so completely guarded by the ships of the power that attacks it a tl which stationed u ere, chut it is clang nous lot arc any vessel to en'tr it. 5. That these principles shall serve as a rule for proceedings and judgments upon the legality of prizes. These doctrines were holdly assert d by the members of tin; armed jieutraiity in the year 1780, a period at which the U. States of Ame rica had not been fairly enrolled on the list oi nations. It cannot, therefore, be pretended that our government, when it has insisted up on rights far less imposing than these, has set up pretensions to new fang'ed notions of tire law of nations. In 1780 , G. Britain was some what meeker than at present ; she replied in a very respectful tone to the empress Catharine ; and far from claiming the absolute dominion oi j the seas, she " gave the most precise orders respecting the flag of her imperial majesty, and the commerce of her subjects, agreeable to the law oi nations, Denmark, Sweden and Rus sia, at that time were neutral; ami England had behaved to them very much in the same manner that she has since done to Amctica.— 'Tins it was that induced them to combine, and to arm for the protection or their neutral rights. (treat Britain not having yet destroyed the fleets of Holland. France, and Spain; nor having then stolen the fleet of the Danes; be came alarmed at this maritime coalition, and was compelled to conduct herself with the greatest address to prevent the total destruction of her piratical system, whilst yet in an infan tile state : Time was wiia! the cabinet of Lon don wanted to gain, and nine relieved it from the llu-n pressure of the embarrassment. F re derick the great left the theatre of life ; Catha rine sunk into the grave before her favorite project ol the freedom of the seas was consum mated ; and, after her, until the time of Na poleon Bonaparte, Europe has been governed by a race ot kings whose imbecility lias be come proverbial, who were the mere creatures of English guineas, and who have not had vir tue nor energy enough to save their thrones Irom being overturned by the valor and the en terprise ol one man. Bonaparte, in fact, has done notiiing more than revive the maritime principles of Catharine II.—Principles which, as the empress of Russia very forcibly and justly remarks in ihe declaration, " are < oin cident with the primitive rights of nations, to winch every people may appeal, and which the belligerent powers cannot invalidate with out violating the laws of neutrality, and without disavowing the maxims they have adopted in their several treaties and public engagements." As Russia still si riet I y adheres, under the reign of the wise and benevolent Alexander, to the maxims of Catharine, and as all continental F.uropc may be said now to be compressed be tween France and Russia, we may ve.y ration ally anticipate the approach of the period wtiei the commerce of nations will be resloied to its pristine liberty by the introduction of a code of public laws consonant to the basis of the armed neutrality. In this point of view, both Mr. Madison and Mr. .Itiferson have evinced a VC ry accurate knowledge of the tine interests of their country in their resolute adherence to the policy ol sending an ambassador to St. l'cteis burg. In a national point of view the cost is a mere cypher ; but the advanta who cun calculate it! 11 by cultivating the friend-hip ot the great F'.uropean powers, wim will naturally become the guarantees for the freedom ot com e are, on the occurrence of a general merce, peace, to come in for a portion of the cummer* cial benefits thence resuiting it will secure to the U. S. advantages which they could not ob tain with the aid of two hundred sail of tile line and live hundred millions of dollars. And yet, we find the tories willing to sucrifn e these vast acquisitions, by refusing to entertain friendly relations with Russia because Timothy Pickering happens to haie the late president Adams and his son.

She received the blow obliquely, otherwise the consequences had probably been fatal. So violent was the explosion that a piece of the heading which struck a water barrel standing at some distance, fractured several of its staves. The cause of this explosion, which has excited considerable speculation and sur prise, could be no other than inflamahlr air, (hydrogenous gas) which had accumulated in the cask. The properties of this gas arc well known to chymists. It smells like pu trid fish, and cannot be very, safely breathed even when largely diluted with vital air.— Pilatre du Rozuer, a French chemist, how over, mixed a ninth part of vital air with pare hydrogenous gas, filled his lungs with it, and set it on fire during the expiration— which produced an explosion so dreadful that the philosopher had like to have lost all of his teeth by the experiment.

Having heard of the execution of several Delaware's and Shawnie's, at their towns near Cape Girardeau, we had the curiosity to enquire of Rogers, the Shavvauie chief, as to the truth of the report. Mr. Rogers says that Waabeleththeh, a Delaware ; and Thathaway, a Shawonie chief, summoned him to attend a solemn council at their towns, that on his arrival there he found that a great revolution was about to take place, they had interdicted the use of intoxicating liquours and determined to abandon the chase, to raise stock and corn for food, and teach their women to spin and weave their cloths. They had es tablished a court to try criminals, four per sons were tried, three men were found guilty, and one woman acquitted. Tne condemned were led out of town to a thick woods and tomahawk'd, they were then placed on an immense pile of wood and burnt to ashes; upwards of 100 men assist ed at the execution. The enquiry is going about as to what we are to do in the present emergency. On this point common sense would say, let the legisla tures of tiie different states conciliate patties ; let die real interests of the country be calmly considered; let us discountenance local distinc tions ; let us become more constitutional, and consequently more national, by becoming more united ; iet it no longer be Massachusians and Virginians, New-Yorkers and Pennsylvanians, but Américain : I hen shall we become more re spected and formidable abroad, more collected and happy at home ; let us also instead of talk ing, art : for foreign nations will not befieve that we are in earnest until we make a display of something more than mere words T.

Latest Foreign News. —An arrival at N. York brings London dates to the 6th ot August, and Greenock papers to the 1 0th; but tlitir contents aie not of much importance to the American reader. It was reported that the English Grand Expedition had taken possession of VValchercn. it was also reported that a rupture of the Ar mistice had taken place, anti that another battle ensued in which the French lost I 4,000 men.— This report is not entitled to credit. A gallant attack was made by some British armed boats on the Russian flotilla in the Baltic, in which they succeeded in sinking one gnn-boat and hringing off six, together wiili twelve vessels under the protection of tiie flotilla, laden with powder and provisions for the Russian army. The latest accounts from Germany state, that the Emperor of Austria was at Olmutz, and the Archduke Charle's head-quarters at F.ylau; and that a congress of peace was to be held in Mora via or Vienna. That an accommodation was about to take place between Russia and Sweden, die conditi ons of which was—the surrender of I' inland and the shutting of the Swedish ports against the British. The following article is extracted fiom a London paper o. the 4th of August " Private letters hom Holland state that the official account of the preliminaries hav ing been signed between Austria Sc France has been received—the following has been given as the substance of them with what trim, we have no yet been aide to ascertain. , Bonaparte during the progress of the war, \| declared that he would place the kingdom ot Havana in such a s.ihation as not to have any thing to fear in future from the powor rinn he I ° y 1 " l , hal tiL ' Cli,ra - non be has acted. He is said to have wrest ed irom Austria all her territories on the right bank of the Danube; and to have ex ended tue Bavarian territory to Vienna on the hast, and following a line along the frontiers of Hungary to the Drau, to have ascended to the source of that river. A hnc is then described to Inspruck and Bre genz and this new accession of territory given to Bavaria. All die territories is to the South of tile Drau, including part of Carinthia, Carnioia, Istria, Trieste, and Piume is added to the kingdom of Italy. The Tyrol is ceded by Bavaria to France. Wirtemburg and Baden are to get some accession of Territory in Fran conia. Bohemia and Maria are to be re tained by the House of Austria, as well as Hungary—Russia is to obtain an increase of Territory in Austrian Poland—Saxony is also to have an increase. This is reported to be the substance of the Preliminaries—We do not believe that any copy of them has been received, and indeed the intelligence of their having been signed rests solely up on the authority of private letters from Hol land. We should have expected that an e vent of such importance would have been announced to us by rejoicings upon the French coast, and by some bulletin convey ed to us in the usual way. But for our own parts we are not very anxious for the arrival of the Preliminaries. The whole business of humiliation and destruction was done by the armistice—the rest is mere mat ter of course—Znaim, Presburg and Giatz would not have been given up—the Tyrol would not have been abandoned to the ven geance of the eonquerer, had not Austria been prepared to make almost any sacrifi ces that were demanded of her.

F»> the (it it f. To the Delegates. You are to consider well your duty and to do it, if vou desire to receive the appro bation of the county. It is your duty to seek and bring into nomination virtue and ta , ! ferns—But ) ou ought not to indulge your individual whims at public expence or sa crifice. You ought not to turn the measure you are the means of executing, to local purposes. As many of you contributed to carry this measure when agreed on at Red-lion, you are bound in honor not to abuse, a measure of your own; and to employ the power you possess, as delegates, to effect a local pur pose will lie an abuse. The arguments for the mode of selection by delegates were, to "secure to the county virtue rnd talents, and guard agan it thoughtless indiscretion" — N» man ventured to assign for a reason that "it would enable the county to exclude New Castle, Pencader or any other hun dred from being represented in the Legis lature by men who were opposed to remov ing the Court house." For certainly had such reason been assigned, a contrary de cision would have taken place; and whatso ever was unfit to be avowed then, must be unfit for you to execute. In order to elucidate this point let us sup pose that Wilmington, New-Casde and o ther portions of tiie county should lay their beads together to remove the funds of New ark academy to one f their colleges, and, besides petitioning the Legislature, should carry a plan of selection and election to ex clude Newarkand its friends from a Repre-' 1 sentulive. Is there any of you would think tiiis right ? So of every local question; jus tice and fair play require they should he heard and defended by their friends, ant! every plan to rob them is dishonorable and unjust. a Perhaps it may be said the Bridge ques. lion was so disposed of: yes it was, but that was .because New-Csstle and the op. posing Hundrt ds refused the other tlisposi lion by election, after the general election was over. The proposed disposition oi that question was, that each hundred should send Delegates and the Referai ticket hi- '• formed in the usual manner, and the ' tion <,f bridge and no bridge, referred u, the people by elections to beheld in the r rc speciive hundreds in November. Btil this ! ,, tJ P osil ' on was rejected, and its f, iends de nounced by the opposer, of the bridge, and as the friends were determined to have ti e question tryed in some shape, none was left them but by the general election. So far as precedent goes, therefore,the bridge case , s ag ai„ sl exclusion of opposer., and n the removal of the court house has been refer red to the neople on petition, and the ppo smon to removal bave co-opperated in the measure of selection and Domination, it wouid be illiberal in the highest degree, as well as useless in ils effects, to exclude them ot their share of representation. It is not in the nature of things, that any plan oi nominating candidates to b e recoin mended for luture approbation can be ap proved, which is employed to mischievous i put poses—nominations originated in a de sire to harmonise a party, liable to divide and weaken itself without. The same pur ■ pose must be preset ved, otherwise co-oppe ration oi all ihe parts cannot be expected.— I lie plan by hundred elections would secure this point, and will become V if necess that by Delegates is abused to local ever purposes. The writer of this is a friend to the Delegate plan and prtsu ncs the Dele gates are so, and it is from a solicitude to preserve the plan by an honorable a«d dig nified execution of it, induces him to make this address, fearful that want of eonsid er iug the subject might lead to what the op position apprehends. ii. FOR THE GAZETTE. To the Republicans of Pen cade r Hundred. I was extremely sor y to find so much disunion among mv political brethren, as i witnessed at tHe Red-lion meeting of the 9h instant, and most sincerely regretted to find that the intrigue of the New-Casth leaders had insinuated itself into Pcncade' hundred. Through tile influence of a cei tain gentleman, whose business naturally gives him some influence, a considerable portion of the citizens of that hundred be came violently opposed to a certain local measure, now in agitation, contrary to their own interests and a majority of the people of the hundred. The gentleman from Pen cmler who was so loquacious in opposition to the old and true method of forming the countv deket, was a irw weeks ago, as is \ e rv well known, an arrive advocate for the removal of the seat of justice, and is now as active in opposition :—the reason of this sudden change deserves an explanation.— By some accident lie w<* prevented from attending the Red-lion meeting of tiie 24ri. oi June, and did not happen to be placed ■< the committee appointed at that meeting, for o meet on a subsequent dav, to draft petition for the temoval of the seat of j tice. &e.

Now, what are the people of Pencader hundred to think of the weak, puerile and fickle créa ture, who would let the disappointment of being a member of a committee, influence him in a matter of so much consequence to a majority of the inhabitants of New-Cas tle count)? I should not be disappointed to see this gentleman, in case he should lose his'eleciion, (as it is said he is now intrigue ing for a seat in the assembly), change po litics altogether. I hope the citizens of Pencader hundred will he more circum spect in their choice, and not. elect for their representative a mere neat her cock, who will change sides with every wind, The station of representative requires more firmness, than perhaps any other; and a de generate politician is, of all others,the most G. unfit for that station.

" Whoso findeth a wife findet h a good thing ** So said bolornon the prince of gal lantry ; and Solomon ought to know. The soft moments spent by the Jewish Monarch in conjugal endear ments and sweetest dalliance with the enchanting fair, bore testimony, no doubt to the truth to his assertion ; and when surrounded with his nu me. rous wives, he had good right to con clude, that he was in possession not only of one good thing but of three hundred. l iie age of poligamy is happily past : and on the tbreshhold of do"; 111 i tic felicity, rendered doubly pleasing bv hi fascinating smile of her we love have the deep drawn prejudices anrl Superficial maxim-., ot barbarous ori entai na ions been sacrificed, and tile shrine of exclusive individual aflecti erected on the ruins of divided on Itiendship, I or myself I have no hes itation in declaring, that in my opinion' wile, particularly a modern one. j one is amply sufficient for one husband ; or in. other words one good thing at a time is enough to answer all the pur poses of human life. , !1 discussing my subject, I shall divide it into tivo general heads, and piocetd, by way ol inquiry, to ascer tain hirst, uhat is a wife ;—Second ly, in what sense she can bt consid ered a good thing ?—And lastly, shall wind up the interresting subject, by a brief improvement of the whole. eirst What is a wife? and here to prevent the cavils of a sensorious anc, malignant world, it may be ne ecssary for the preacher to hint a truth, which the midnight curtain lectures of many a hopeless Benedict, if they could br obtained, would confirm be tend the possibility of doubt, viz_ that wives, as well .is other snblu nary things very naturally divide themselves i s into two permament ciass tiie good and the bad—or the CS' fretful and unfiethil.

'This brings me to my second proposition, viz.—In what sense she can be considered a good thing ? 1 have, already, in some measure, a anticipated an answer to this question, in the preceeding section of my ser mon, because the two points were ve ry nearly, not to say inseparably con nected together. A good wife may be considered a good thing ; nay, the very best of things, when she fills up the measure of her domestic duties, and presides with pleasure over the concerns of a thriving family. She is the centre of that powerful attractive system, in which revolve, with uniform motion, at! the bewitching graces, all the homeborn delights of-refined and tran quil love. She gives a new charm, and adds an exquisitive delight to all the blandishments of social life. Soli tude is a stranger where she dwells ; anti melaneholly pausing over his mornful story, dares not approach her consecrated mansion, here is the silver wand which chases away the damon of sorrow, and restores the sunshine of her soul. In her right hand she holds health, happiness, and dawning honors ; and in her left an inverted mirror, reflecting the loveli est objects in creation. I come now to the IMPROVE MEAT. Stranger ! whoever thou art, who standeth alone amid the storms of the world, labor incessantly and with all thy might, o obtain that good thing mentioned in mv text. A little woo ing will answer the purpose, and pro cure thee a jewel of inestimable val tie Does thy heart pant for glory, and thy brow stern with the victories of battle, or desire the bloodstained j laurels of the conqueror ? Banish the peu rile dream, and let sober reason chase the delusive vision from thv soul. A w ife will soften the as perity of thy temper, and smooth thy brow clouded with sadness. -She will kindly watch over thy bed of sickness, and whisper i in softest accents, ihe language of conso l-'uion to thy drooping heart. She "'ill form thy mind to generou s exer »ions, and make the nobly emulous of real greatness; and when the last, faint flashes of life's expiring lamp, nave quivered out their little moment, her tears will thyl clay moisten cold form; and her prayers, ascen ding for thy final happiness, will gen tlv waft thy disembodied spirit to the gardens of the Paradise of God* Origin of confining jurors firom meat & drink. The Gothic nations were famousof old in Europe, for the quantities of food and drink which they consum ed.

BALLSTOWN, September 5. \| MURDER _Many of the inhabitants of \| this county will recollect that two murders supposed to have been coinmi e u were the place then called Newton, in fia moon, about 11 years since. 1 he body of one man was found, suspended, or the appear ance of having been suspended by a hand kerchief or rope, to a tree or limb; and a dog brought in the skull of another, though We believe the body was never found, bus picion about this time, fixed on a Mr. l''!inu, a tavern keeper near at hand, a* an accomplice in the murder. We believe he wa , h »rl hm trill or at least was apprehended, had his tr a , or aj least nn examination, and was .equated A man by the name of Abijah Merits* taken . . J r ... , . J , in die county of Washington, was on Wed nesday committed to tile jail of this county charged with the murders. T h'e circuinstaii ces which have attached su^icion on Mr. Sterns are singular; an^ have thrown sonic light upon the subject, which was never he* f'ore known. We will relate, as near as we have been informed, his owfi story; and al though we shall not pretend to exactness in every instance, yet shall aim at the sub stance. About U years ago. lie was travelling from Albany to Argyle, aa;l in a piece of woods heard the cries of a man in distress. Stopping, he saw a man at the distance of about 20 rods, tied to a tree, anil another knock him in the head with the but end of a pistol, who then took a kr.tfe from his pocket and cut his throat from ear to ear— lie satv the blood stream from the wound. The murderer then took a portmanteau, lying at a small distance, ripped it open, and took therefrom two linen bags, contain ing about 80U dollars in silver, and a large quantity of bank bills- When this was per formed, the robber approached Sterns, and demanded his money, 200 dollars, tied in a handkerchief, which he relused to deliver up, although the robber observed he had just killed one man, for his money, and threatened him with instant death. After some parley, they both, side and side; wal ked back, and about 15 rods beyond the place where the man had just been killed. Ol a sudden, a lad rushed out of a thicket of hushes with a club in his hand, and with cries beseethed Sterns to assist him in sc curing the robber who had murdered his father. 4 The robber standing between the two, drew a pistol, presented it at Sterns, (who begged his life) saying he bhould kill him to prevent his appearing as a witness; pausing for a moment, he turned round and shot the young man through the breast, who fell dead at his leet. At this time, a man on a black horse, who had not before been discovered, rode out of the bushes, and cal led t ) the robber to secure the man, (mean ing Sterns) who then ran towards Flinn's. The man on horseback took another path, and attempted to cut olf his retreat, E'onr pistols were fired at him, and in the scuffle was severely wounded. He reached Mr. Finn's, however, and had his wounds dres sed. This we understand is the amount of the story rtla'ive to the murder, as related by Sterns. But it is astonishing that he should have been an eye witness of transactions SO horrid, and not have immediately rallied the whole neighbourhood in pursuit of the mur dertrrs. VV e believe, however, but little or no alarm was given at the time; the subject after created considerable some time conversation, till finally it died away and was r.lmost fot gotten. Mr. Sterna asserts that he is Chief Judge of the Supreme Court of Vermont; and In \|S forwarded letters to that state, of which the following are copies. We know nothing of the truth oi their contents : they may be true, or he may have a stia'agen in view to elude the hand of justice.

BalUtnwn Jail, August 31, 1803. KHOM TIH'. NATIONAL INTEU.tGCNCEtt. Among the error« extensively imbibed in this country, that appears to ire the most extraordinary, which connects our gene ral prosperity with the state of our foreign relations. E'rom the liveliest inter est we take in every viscissitude in the af fairs of Europe, and in the smiles and frowns ol foreign nations towards us, it might be inferred that we were entirely de pendent on foreign events, if not for our ex istence, at least for every thing that renders existence a blessing. Is this impression correct? If it is we ought to realise our true character and acta part consistent with it. We should reject the lofty notions of independence as the idol dreams of a disordered imagination, and learn the important duty of obedience. We should quietly resign ourselves to our fate instead of rashly strugling against it. II, however, the impression be altogeth er incorect, we are called upon dispassion atelv to estimate our real character, to fath om our own native resources, and to scorn that dependence, which will probably be the found,on a full investigation,to be the source by of almost all our divisions and troubles. Now, experience is the unerring crucible SO of every thing done by What does liven« the it teach us ? 1 hat amidst the dreadful changes and convulsions which have for or twenty years agitated the whole foreign world we have remained happy and have grown in prosperity with every succeeding and year. . Much as we have been alarmed, from time to time, with the menacing as pect or allairs, we have continued to \ pro \|S gress, with a steady pace, in riches, the 111 numbers, and in power ; while these for of eign events, which excited our apprenensi be ons and made us tremble for the conse to quences, have turned out lo be either bless, ings in disguise ; or.at worst but momenta ry checks. 1 hrones have sunk beneath the nervous arm of Napoleon, and the estab lished order of the European world has tot tered to its base. Every breeze has waited us to the chilling sound of the hurricane, 1 and has filled us with overwhelming presa re ges of our own fate. But time and events on have soon undeceived us, and instead of l i finding ourselves involved in the general ru rum, we have advanced, with accelleratecl yon the steps, toward the goal of our wishes. England has tkspotised on the ocean and with ; (loivt ; us irresistible as unjust,has pi raitir ii'iv Reiv.e d all the property sht could su { 1 j i • to the operation of her iniquitous ()r( j L . rs > S ; 1L . h ;l s', more especially, poured ; , ut t hH\dl vi.il of her wrath upon our un (>ff d - h ^ y still, our career in M h . , ' . , , r... wealth and numoers and power, so far from !>e,n 6 mtf-ri »peed, seems to nave been push 011 'vith augmented velocity# It may be confidently assumed as a fact, that, for the last twenty years, the United States have a progressed in riches, numbers and power, with so uninterrupted a progress, that there lus not been a single year, which lias not unequivocally displayed a sensible advance ; and it may as con hdcntly be added, that our present situation is attended with as striking displays of this fact as 1 J ahy which have preceded it. Vit it must head l^j'ted that at no preceding period lias foreign injustice been more avgtavatei or active, and that we are at present reposed to the greatest evils it is in its power to inflict. Notwithstand ing these evils, which dcvelope the exir.iordinn ry circumstance of our being equally exposed to the hostility of the whole belligerent world, the interior of onr country indicates more unequiv o cal evidences of prosperity than we have ever be fore witnessed. Hie price of labor is unaffected, every man who wants employment easily finds our towns are increasing and receiving new embellishments, money is in plenty, institutions that.evince a high state of civilization arc every where springing up, an<! flic great internal im \|.roveme..t. of road, and canals are prosecuted «'• 'he broadest scale. * i true picture of the state of our If tiiii country, is it not the most conclusive evidence, that our prosperity depend« almost altogether up on ourselves, and that we have consequently at tached a false importance to our foreign rela tions ? Does it not prove that a nation of free men, possessed of an abundance of good lands, enjoying every variety of soil and climate, culti vating the arts and reaping their benefits, and u hove#»ll united by a government well adminis tered, may safely consider their prosperity as fixed on a solid foundation not to be sinken by tire injustice of any foreign power, however te - rifying. That power may, for a time, deny us tire profits of trade, nay infringe our rights as a sovereign nation, and heap insults up n inju ries; but its injustice will eventually react upon itself, by teacldn us to cultivate our vast inter mil resources, learning how to live in peace a mong ourselve«. I he events of the last three vears, have brought 'his interesting instruction home to the under standings and hearts of the American people. 1 he privations they have caused, have made them feel their independence, The fact is un , versally realised that they can <1 without Eu rope ; and could a full statistical view of our progress during this period, in the improved cul tivation of our ground, the new roads and canals effected, and the new manufactories established, be presented, more would b* done to convince England of the folly of her injustice towards U! than, can be expected from the profoundest de ductions of reason or the warmest remonstrances of justice. Looking forward, with a prophetic eye, to a period by no means distant, she would start appalled at the precipice towards which she is thus hastening, and would instantly merisul-r back the inconsiderate steps she has taken. By striking off every shackle to a fiee trade, and by becoming the zealous and efficient advocate ol neutral rights, she would rprens our in-tnii fac tures and perpetuate our commercial dependence upon her; we should supply her with every raw material she wants, together with provisions , on the best terms, and wc should furnish er with a market for a direct or circuitous disposition of lier variegated manufactures. Um'orrunately, however for her, her policy is short sighted., her councils consult not her permanent interests, but transported by personal animosity, or swayed by personal interests, to gain a momentary tri umph, are sacrificing the only solid interests oi the nation. DIPLOMATIC EVENTS. England, by her minister Erski ng, made a treaty with the United States to take ef fect on the 10th of J une. England by her subsidies (we will not call it .6 millions of British goldJ and di plomatic acts, excited war against Bona parte bv Austria—and disavowed Erskine's treaty. Bonaparte meeting with Ifis usual succss in opening the campaign, at Kckrnuhl. See— England appointed Mr. Jackson an envoy extraordinari to come and treat with U3. Austria gaining a wonderful victory (in her army, through favour of winds and lteshets escaping under annihilation) on the bank of the Danube—England suspends the sailing of Mr. Jacksons, whose departure had been announced in the Britssh pap ers. 1 r On the 5th and sixth of July Bonaparte destroys the Austrian army, and the empe ror Francis surrenders the whole Austrian territory—and Mr Jackson proceeds on his so long intended voyage, and arrived safe in this country. Now suppose Bonaparte had beendi feat ed instead of the Archdude—would Mr Jackson have left England? Ol should we have had a new edition of Orders m Council ? of Appropos. When a coalition is formed against Bonaparte England issues her Or ders in Council. M hen that coalattou is dissipated by a 1 battle of Marengo, Austerlitz, or Jr nil —She sends a minister to treat with uni go vernment. Thus Orders in Council, or a minister to treat, depends on the fate of the continental battles. Has not the history of the European v. ar for ten years past established the fact ? Yet Federalists pray for British success. And the republican, who will not join in chanting the Heligoland Te Dean is called a Fren-h partisan ! Bee. ANTICIPATION. What prospects does the present state of the world a Hind to America ? and what course should we pursue ? are momentous questions. 1 lie prospect is doubtful, tut the principles that should regulate our course are clear_ The fir t maxims of our government are, neu trality without sacrifice of interest, and peace without sacrifice of honor—or, honest friend ship an I commerce with all the world, when the wo d will permit. These maxims have grown with our growth and become inherent and vital principles of our policy—they ought not to be changed—they cannot be changed without risking the consequences of a thorough revolution. But it is said we must have com merce— 1 lake it for granted tills is practica :y as least, as a general rule. By what prin true ciple shall we regulate our course if war is to he the price of this commerce ? Private interest, party passions and .short sighted pobey might solve this question, upon tue balance of immediate profit and loss—the comparative wrongs we have received from the belligerents—ui their relative power of in flicting new injuries. Our true interests which i consider as itidentified with our honour, will Inuk beyond these deceptive and temporizing calculat'ons. A seven years war in the infancy of our nation proved that our energies even then ere competent to the struggle with our llerc.ulean foe. If our ability to pvosecu'e a snccosslul war is less now than it was then, it is time we were put to martial exercise till our firmer energies are restored. If on the other hand the augmented tesources of our popula tion and wealth for the twenty years past, (un erju dkd even by the acquisition of power to those rito now divide the empire of tire old wm Id,) have given usas they ought, under oue un'on, proportionate energies for war—tvehave nothing to fear, if we mean to be a commer cial nation, and a nation we cannot be without preserving inviolate our essential rights, we' must assert and vindicate those rights on srve ty sea that bears our flag. The contending party that first acknowledges those rights and gives indemnity for the past and security fur the future, should receive the first fruits of our commerce, and the first proofs of our fr.cncl lf the other take offence, let us abide the consequence. If neither comply with terms so equitable, let us prosecute an honest com merce with every nation on the globe that does not shackle :t with dishonoorable restrictions, and authorize our enterprising merchants to arm, and our hardy tars lo vindicate our rights from the cannon's mouth, on the first nggres 1 his will bring the question lo a speedy SIOII. issue—but one of the belligerents will esm mence offensive operations—perhaps neither. If hranee choose to be the offender, wc shall co-operate with a naval power which in con- • junction with trie increasing energy and skill of » our ow n, could confine her allied forces forev 1 - cr to the insulated continent, while we should have flee access to the rest of the world, if England commence the first act of hostility-— what then! Shall we hear our advocates uf the British cause preaching up the terrors of bom bardment and the solacism of our floating in dependence, dependant on the protection of the British navy > No. If these cowards think sedition, they will not dare to speak, much less, to act treason. We shall soon learn that an invading British ship ol war has no terrors without men, Sc that within swimming distance they will send us, in their own stout hearted tars, more friends than canton balls, In such a contest, to say nothing of the aid of the rest ol the united mi l, xve should find in an ap peal to that kindred, sympathizing soul of jus tice which animates the great mass of the En glish nation, ap efficient and irresistible ally, which would soon put a period to the war on oui own terms—thy terms pf justice and honor, fias.

A. Alexander. Fairfield, 28 th September, 1809. FOR IHE GAZETTE. BRANDYWINE BRIDGE. It is with pleasure we announce to the part of the bridge over public, that one Brandywine creek is now passable. The" ferry, which was established for the conveyance of travellers across the creek, during the time the bridge was building, was abolished on Saturday last. The novelty of the constt action of the bridge, naturally produced a diversity of o ptnion respecting the utility of the plan,— but after having received the won't do — never do — and can't do — of hundreds of fully believe that it —will spectators— we JJOj. We forbear giving a particular account of the construction, believing that the ma nagers will give the public every requisite information on the subject, when the bridge All we can say at pre is fully completed, sent is, that we believe it a good plan — and that people in waggons, carriages. Etc. can now cross the creek safe—and with MANY. out TOLL. A gentleman at Porto Rico writes to his correspon dent in New-York, that official advices had been re ceived that on the 27th and 28th of July, a most bloody battle was fought in the neighbourhood of Ma drid, in which the French lost, in killed, wounded, and The battle is said to have prisoners, 48,000 men. been fought by Gen. Cuesta, in conjunction with the English. We have now assurances that the English Expedition had reached the coast ol Holland, and that the fleet had extended itself from the East to the Western entrance of the Scheid. This country, in the latitude of the 1 hames, is but 3 degrees east of it. It does not appear that the English have made a descent upon the Continent, but have taken possession of some portion ofthe Islands which compose the prov ince of Zealand. They reckon four principal Islands on the Western Scheid and as many on the eastern. Walcheren forms the entrance ofthe west on the noith side and Schon wen the if the east branch, on the north side. entrait ct Flushiu" is the port of Walcheren on the south side ofthe island towards the West Scheid. The Capitol of the Province is Middlesburg on the Wolchercn and its population has bee» giv en at 24,000, and it is nearly in the centre ol the LDtnl. A canal of communication with the West Scheid admits ships of the largest bur den and formerly this place was considered as well fur lifted. Flushing is the filth town, and was also fortified, and its dock is sufficient to receive u large fleet. Veer on the north pint ot the Island has not a great distance from the Fast Scheid, but is not so large as Flushing. By landing on the isLmds the English may not ■V.v >3 su readily to pénétrât., into ws Country, but they will be more secure from any f.rcc which the French and their allies call bring against them. It is above two hundred years since Wulcheren had joined the Slat und in u short time afterwards Flushing was mortgaged to Elizabeth, but upon payment of the loan, il was restored to the States by James. In the middle of the past Century the English repre sented Middlesburg as emuirtt of a share in their trade with Rotterdam, and as having redu ced their customs to divert the trade thither, but its chief trade was with Scotland. At that time every week a passage could he obtained in the Middiuburg packets to London. Veer however bad the greatest portion of the Scotch trade, which still inclined to Rotterdam.— The privileges granted to the Scots in Veer were great both civil and commercial, so that many Scotch families settled in that place. It has always been insinuated that no competition of interest, should induce the inhabitants of this country u, at war with Great Britain. The subordinate cha racter of die commerce of Zealand will re ceive the strongest local prejudice, from ti ny advantages the English may propose, and may be- favorable to a temporary quiet which oromsses present concurrence with their commercial interests. From the Danube, the accounts continue very favorable to the French. The Armis tice was of such a character, as not to augur well to the Austrians, and as such it was received in England. The French Empe ror had admitted an immediate inter view with the officers of die Austrian army, and it has been even insinuated with the Archduke Charles himself, but of this e vent there L no evidence. fhe French emperor had returned to the Imperial Pa I lace near Vienna, and it is said that the Emperor of Austria had retired from Ol muiz in Moravia to Hungary, and it was said that the Archduke Charles was at Ig lau in Moravia, northwest from Znairo — Iglau is the capital of one of the circles, with a population of 10 000, upon a river of the same name, and about the same dis tance from Znaim as from Brunn, not a de gree northwest from Brunn, and not two degress southwest from Olmutz. It is re ported the armistice has succeeded the pre liminaries of peace. At first it was said that the French emperor had refused every né gociation for peace, hut the language ot the bulletin, expresses fully with what, temper the Austrians would make their proposi tions for peace. It is said that Bavaria was to receive the countries as far as the Drave, and the countries south of the Drave were That to be added to the Italian kingdom, the Tyrol was to he given to France. That the German powers were to be rewarded with portions front the Austrian dominions in Germany, and Austria was to retain part of Moravia, Bohemia and Hungary, This distribution whether real or not, is made upon the terms ot the Armistice. The Rus sians were to hold Austrian Poland and the country conquered hv their arms. The armistice according to the last accounts had been communicated at Dresden, and had pat an end to the operations of that quarter. Some accounts had been given that Gen. La Roche had passed with French troops from Nuremberg to Baretith, and had had a successful action in that neigh bourhood. before the news of the armistice had arrived. According to the bulletins, divisions of the. French army had encamp ed at Holabrun, Znaim, and Nicholsburgh, and the Austrians from Saxony were re turning co Bohemia, Holabrun is between Znaim and the Danube and Nicholshurg is more easterly than Znaim in Moravia. In the No; th appearances were in favor of between Sweden anil Russia. Swedish peace Ministers were expected at Paris and Petersburg. The Russian troops which had advanced upon ihe Gulplt of Bothnia had retired, but whether towards their northern settlements which had been disturbed by the English, or towards Fin land had not been known. It is suid that the Russians will hold Finland and the Island ol Aland, and will insist upon I be co-operation of \| ie Swedes against the English. It is even said that the Swedes were to unite their maritime force with the Russian licet in the Baltic. The English report a victory gained over a Russian fiotîlla in the Bdtic, and an English fleet has been seen in the Gulph of Finland., in every pait of the Gulph. Such are the appearances of le mming peace among the northern powers, that e have assurances ot the renewed intercourse w between Stralsund and Sweden by permission of the commander in Swedish Pomerania, now in At these circumstun the hands of the French. the English have taken alarm, and expect to r,-s begin hostilities again-t the Swedes immediately. the Swedish government nolon The change in gel- appears like a temporary accommodation.

What a delicious balm is diffused over 'he whole frame when the candle is exiinguished and the head on the p litnv ! If, on a strict scrutiny of the soul we cannot discover any thing which could offend our fellow creat ures, then deep is almost a celeslriai reverie. It is never so delicious or so Iran nuil, as after a davon which we have .performed some good act, or when we are conscious of having spent it in some useful or substantial employ mem. The instant the head is laid on the pillow, is that in which conscience delivers its decrees. If it has conceiv ed any evil design, it is surround', d with thorns; the softest down is hard under the restless head of the wicked. In aider to be happy, a man must be on good terms with his pillow : for the nightly approaches it can make mu .-a be heard. Wt. must be happy or miserable at nr oy recollection. Memory re.

As the proposed price is only half the sum h is now selling for tv. most of onr Book-sto r es, it will he seen, that neither the Printer, nor any persons who promote tiie work, have any ject in view, but the good of souls, and the glo ry. of God. it is presumed that every one who wishes for the spiiitual rise »ud progress of religion in his soul, ot 1 rs tamily, will subscribe, anti OWll dial all friends of religion will encourage the work.

TUESDAY Citizens of Delaware / on NEXT you ate to exercise the important - ight of suffrage, In tlte discharge of this ri inestimable right —this patriotic autii fit behoves you to think, speak and act as Cree• , as citizens of United America ,-—'the men onlv free government on Earth , the omy a sylum for oppressed humanity. It is inlin itely easier to preserve our liberty at the polls than contend tor it iu the field, Let-us then shew ourselves worthy of the sacred blessings transmitted tous by the heroes and statesmen of our revolution, by breaking down the monster Aristocracy, who, under the assumed name of Federalism, has been too long suffered to raise his brazen crest a mong us. Let us elect such men to repre sent us a3 will not betray tlte trusts of iree men, by withholding their assent to " laws the most wholesome and necessary for the public good"—and disgrace the character of the state, by a systematic opposition to the measures of the General Government. The charge of French influence, which was for a time so successfully used, by British emissaries and degenerate Americans, to bring odium on the American administrati on, is now known by every unprejudiced American, who has taken any pains to in h.<-ttfiiial u, the «1* Jv!hitp4P\| t>. i' baseless fabric of a vision"—of which the change of sentiment that is known to have taken place in Vermont, Rhnde-Isl.tnd, Massachusetts, and even Connecticut, the land of steady h.ihits. furnishes abundant proof. A slight acquaintance with the act* of our General Government is sufficient to convince every unprejudiced rr.incl of its de votion, for more thao eight years past, to interests and national greatness. our 'rue Who th . the revih rs of our govern. u are men. ? A faction of apostate Americans. aidedbv iJihish em.ssar and perhaps re warded lu British gold—men, who, under the specious name of American Federalists, Seek c uvet for me purpose of abusing it. j \ ts, tcdow-cilizens, these men are enemies ! to R-publican simplicitv.

Federalists, who are Americans at heart —whose patriotism swells for the substanti ai Ultet ests of your country—listen to the voice of truth, and pursue its dictates. We recommend to your serious consideration ille following luminous article, which, ex cept some trifling alterations, we copy from an address to the Federalists of New-Jer sey, by A Washington Republican. As citizens of the American Republic; as Freemen and the only freemen ori our glioe. the privilege oi electing our rulers is one of the greatest importance; and tue ob liga' î an of exercising this privilege in a be coming manner, is a duty Irons which none can exempt themselves, without manifest ing t total disregard of the immense favors whi< b a k-.iicTand benificent Providence has conf i .d oil them, in pet muting them to choose t.-eir own rulers, and being govern ed by their own laws. " Nor is it less dereliction of duty to hi ns'-lf, his friends and h.s country, for a n man to a' sent himself Iront the polls, u ,s prevented attending by circumstances Which he cannot controul. ■ 1 it us much i-y way of pointing out the i -î aiense value of the privilege, and titc im p r arice of in,- duty. Y-in are freemen, and doubtless you d , : . io remain freemen: you desire to see y country flourishing, prosperous and hippy; and not only so, but you desire that Idrcn tr.av long enjoy these uless vjur cl togs; fur the man who looks not forward to I the future good of those to whom he tpvr r ; being, is not among the number whom 1 I address. Have you reflected how much all tht'r 4 ; good things depend upon those whom yen may select to tall the various offices in yrmi gift? I fear not:—It is mv wish to awaken your reflections-to impress upon you minds the importance ol selecting men K fill the offices which become vacant on tlte dd of October next, who with a stein, in and unchanging resolution vvtl, flexiule, march straight forward in the line oi their dutv, and in defence of your freedom ; unci who will not surrender one iota of your country's right, hut with their lives.

Î " Are the republicans, in battle-arrav a gainst their own government, on the part of France ! No. For were they so, then fare well to liberty; for with us, liberty could find no resting place no home. " Federalists, weigh well in your minds this all-important circumstance, that our national government is now contending for our rights with the most formidable Kuro tiean powers; and, lo obtain what is our just 1 ] doe, our united strength is barely sufficient, ! "I anticipate y mir answer to this; I j know you will say (for you have hcenffi j structed to say these things, by men whose interest it is to deceive you)—1 know you will say why did our government get teto these contentions with foreign powers ?_ As though our government in this, was cri minai, as though it had sought contentions, or as though it could avoid them, When will you lie conv inced that out government has sought peace, that it has made many sa crifices to obtain and preserve it, as its past and present négociations death- demon strate ! " Doei not the late conduct of the En glish government, in rejecting the arrange ment made by their minister, Mr. Erskine, clearly shew with what difficulty an ar rangement could be obtained; and when ob tained; if found a lit'.le favorable to us, by permitting us to trade to the continent oi Europe, they still refuse to abide by it ? , " V ' r ' 11 nothing convince you that these European nations are hostile to us, but an actual invasion of our c °nntry ; must the Inood of our citizens again crimson our plains, to show that those nations are not friendiv ?

'I he histories of the adtninis. tracions of Washington, and Adams, equal ly prove that to do us wrong, is, with them, but their daily labor.

The refined part of mankind ap pear to have establish«} by common consent, a principle of exact punctuality in those engage ments which are not within the power of civil is coertion. Hence it lias been a leading principle with the democratic party to always submit to the will of the majority, and whoever has sece ded, either directly or indirectly, from this rule, has seldom failed to incur the contempt and in dignation of his political brethren. Considering that the democratic party have always been the patrons of improvement—the advocates of the amelioration of man in society ; and that in so doing they have had to counteract the opposition of vigilant, and In this state, of almost invinci ble enemies—it is difficult to imagine a more de testable character, than one « ho while he pro fesses to belong to the party, coveitly attempts teal asunder the polili. ul bonds by which the to party aie connected.

I was led into the preceding observation«, by reflecting on the indecent and unmanly oppositi on that has been nude to Mr. Andrew Reynolds, as the candidate on nomination, for the represen tative of this county in »lie senate of the state, since the Red-Lion meeting of the SiJd instant. Perhaps the business of the party was never conducted more faiily and honorably than at the present lime ; nor do I believe there ever was more general satisfaction given. Pursuant to public notice, printed in both the Wilmington pipers, and in 200 hand hills dis tributed through the county, a very large and respectable meeting of the democratic republi cans, took place at the Red-Lion Tavern, in order to determine on the method to be adopted, for forming the county ticket. In this meeting two methods were proposed for selecting the candidates—that of hundred elections—and, the one heretofore adopted—that of delegates. The delegate system met the approbation of a fthe meeting, andin pursuance large majority o io its decisions, delegates were sent from euch hundred and couvenea! at the Red-Lion on Sa turday die 23d instant, to form the county ticket. After the characters were put in nomination as candidates Jbr the different offices, a motion was made for adopting the ticket as it stood, but be fore a vote of the House was taken nn the ques tion, a gentjeman from Christiana Hundred ob jected to the ticket on account of its containing the name of Andrew Reynolds, as representative for Mill-Cheek Hundred—He stated that he did not believe Mr. Reynolds avas the choice of hi« own hundred—that he did not believe he would be liked in his (Christiana) Hundred—lie was called on to state his charges against Mr. Rey nold« ; as it would be unfair io condemn aman without some crime being alledgca! ag-iinet him, ii was perfectly reasonable that his faults should, whatever they are, lie laid before the public, of which they would judge. But the gentleman horn Christiana Hundred dial not anal most pro bably could not state any thing to the prejudice of Mr. Reynolds. The delegates from Mill Creek Hundred, who had Unanimously con curred. in putting Mr. Reynolds on nomination stated that they had been elected delegates, for the express purpose of doing so, ami that lie was the choice of a larir; majority of the people of Mill-Creek Hundred. The debate ended here, and the ticket ,v is adopted as it stood. So little attention cwu paid to the denunciation of Mr. Reynolds, if the observations of the gentleman Lo-n Cliris'iana Hundred may lie called a denun aiation, that afterwards when there was a gene ts! ballot for a candidate for senator, it appeared un counting out the votes that Mr. Reynolds hail a lons-derahle m ajority for that honorable situa tion, in opposition lo Dr. Alexander. I bus we •/ ! fee that dot oily a majority of tile peopled Mill Creek 'lundi eillvat of the delegates oi the ivhole 1 in the nomination of Mr. "»iniv, ciriictlTe« and eagerly seized that opportunity Reynold in their suppor', 'of the fiist office in 'a i ei ' 1 / bestow.

They next attempt to render him annex ions to the religious prejudices of the peo ple, by asserting that he rescued his hay from being lose, by saving it on Sunday. It is by such mean vulgar insinuations, too low for the notice of a gentleman, that they have endeavored to effect the downfall of a man who could not be reproached wirh the want of moral rectitude or political duty. If a man's consequence is to be estimated ' bv the company he frequents, certainly the 1 eharacter of his decided eneinies,wiU throw j some shade of darkness or lustre over his reputation.

And ,VIr. John Mar lin becomes sa. far the dupe of Mr. Philip«, as to write a letter to the committee of vigi lence in Wilmington, to suspend printing the tickets until they should hear the pro ceedings ofli.it, meeting! 1 It is now well known that a design is on foot to prevent Mr. Kcynnls from being supported, it would he insulting the good sense of the people to inquire whether they will submit to this nefarious imposition.— But if a split is attempted, the engagements to support Perkins and Porter is violated, and anarchy in the Democratic party will be the consequence.

Bonaparte and Moreau it re the two military Colossi of the times. Such has been the trans cendency of their atchieviruTÎts; mir! tliesplejl Jour of their names, that they admit not of a comparison with any olh ;r living character. Charles of Austria, the federalists 11 first cap tain of the age," though ch tinguhhcd in t iUn Ur-marches and defeats, bears but u secondary rank in ike scale of greatness.. A few remarks, founded on a recollection of the conduct of these generals in the field, may be read with some inteied at me présent juncture. Moreau is consummate in conducting a re treat ; flaita/ittete in never suffering such a movement (unless as a feint) lo become neces sary. To a chief w ho fights only to conquer, & never fails iii the plan of a campaign, the sci ence of retreat would be useless und cumber some. Moreau is unequalled in the art of extri cating an army from difficulty and danger. B - imparte in that of never allowing his army to fall into either. Moreau can seize on opportu nities as they offer, and is calculated to sustain the most obstinate conflict. Bonaparte is capa ble of creating opportunities; and conducts his attacks with such impetuosity, that victory generally declares for him, before obstinacy can be displayed on the part of the enemy. Mo-. qualified to receive an attack with invinci reau ble firmness, and repoijit with equal courage, possesses a happy assemblage of talents for de fending his country against invading armies ; but looking down on the mere business of de fence, it belongs to' Bonaparte alone to conquer, and bring even the mighty empire of Cteiniit ny to his feet. In battle Moreau resembles the clift - that receives unshaken the luiy. of tile tempest; but Bonaparte, the impetuous thun derbolt, whose lightning nothing terrestrial can Withstand. Moreau is, indeed, a great gc- neral, a perfect epitome of the art cf war ; but ipartc, the child of Fortuite, the pupil of Genius. Bonaparte, superior to the discipline of military schools, is formad bv nature for a Pah. Adv. conquertr.

THE DOWNFALL OF SWITZEKLAND. On the French entering Switzerland—the great birth filacc of Liberty . Oh! vengeance on the fierce, asking foe fhat brought on thee, dear Switzerland! the woe With which fair Freedom's chosen sons now groan» Strike-their high'breasts, and send to heav'n the moan. Countless the plaints that meet compassion's ear, Hark—freedom's stand--—great Underpaid complains And draw from pity's breast the melting tear, And Uri sad her sluice of sorrow drains— Thy verdant plains, fair land! and swelling grounds Are bear'd to groan, while vales rellçct the sounds— Curs'd be the day when tyrants trod thy dales, Crush'd Freedom's flower,borne on oppression's gales! Aeeurs'd the day when Gallia's armour gleam'd, And o'er thy glens her flags terriffic stream'd! Then, then began alas! the dire afFray, Untimely send tig in a gloomy day The noblest sons of Tell to deathless fame— Their's was the glory, the survivor's shame! For country then, they fought—and nobly bled For county thenj they gasp'd—and sought the dead; The tender husband then, and loving wife— Both old and young were seen to join the itrife f * The of hoary locks to form the line» And beardless youths in foremost ranks to shin. jtrain ths herd's deathless name Then, then# Thy sons aspir'd, and sought immortal fame. But all, dear land! were vain—nor heroes all, Nor patriots brave could ktop thy hapless fall. In vain thy heroes fought—in vain they sigh'd, For freedom's cause; they toil'd in vain—and dy'd— No more thy happy swains with looks so mild Shall tune their pipes melodious sweet and wild; No more thy maidens fair in groupes are seen To join the dance, and path the verd ant green. Thy brightest days are gone—the days of yore "When freedom sway'd, but now she sways no more. Once did fair freedom to thine eye disclose Her buds in beauties vying with the rose» Then did the flowers their op'ning sweets unfold Nor felt the noon-tide heat, nor ev'ning cold. Now feil oppression holds her wintry reign, And blasts the beauties of the ennamel'd plain. Amid the gen'ral wreck they prostrate lie ^f aid forlorn... .alas! they soon must die. DIEGO.

The followin very interesting 0 anecdote respecting this great mon arch,and truly patriotic hero is relat ed by Mr. Kerr Porter, who had ad ded to his high reputation as an artist by a considerable display of literary merit, in a very intelligent and amus. ing work, which does honor to his talents and character. The author, who with laudable enihusiasm visited the spot in Delecarlia, where that great monarch sought a refuge from the Danish Usurper, obtained the sub joined narrative, and the tradition is so exact, and derived from such res pectable sources, as to admit of no doubt of its authenticity.—After describing the place in general he says On a little hill just mentioned, t« stood a very ancient habitation ; of so simple an architecture, that you would have taken it lor a hind's cot tage, instead of a place that, in times of old, had been the abode of nobility. It consisted of a long barn-like structure formed of fir, covered in a strange fashion with scales, and odd ornamental twistings in the carved wood. But the spot was hallowed by the virtues of its heroic mistress, who saved by her presence of mind, the life of the future deliverer of her coun try- The following are the circum stances alluded to : and most of them were communicated to me under the very roof. " Gustavus, having, by an evil ac cident, been discovered in the mines, and after having been narrowly betray ed by a Swedish nobleman, bent his course towards this house, then in habited by a genteleman named Pearson or Peterson, whom he had known in the armies of the late administrator. Here, he hoped, from the obligations he had formerly laid on the officer, that he should at least find a safe retreat— Pearson received him with every mark of friendship, nay treated him with that respect and submission which noble minds are proud to pay to the truly great, when robbed of their external honors. He seemed more afflicted by the misfortune of Gustavus, than the prince was for himself ; and exclaimed with such ( vehemence against the Danes, that, in stead of awaiting a proposal to take up arms he offered unasked to try the spirit of the mountaineers, amd declar ed that himself and his vassals would be the first to set an example, and turn out under the command of his beloved General. " Gustavus was rejoiced to find that he had at last found a man that was not afraid to draw his sword in the defence of his country, and endea voured by the most impressive argu ments and the prospect of a suitable recompence for the personal risks he ran, to confirm him in so generous a resolution Pearson answered with repeated assurances of fidelity: he na med the gentleman and the leading persons among the peasants, u'hom he hoped to engage in the enterprize. Gus tavus relied on his word, and promising not to name himself to^tny one while he was absent, some days afterwards saw him leave the house to put his design into execution. " It was indeed a design, and a black one. Under the specious cloak of a zealous affection for Gustavus the traitor was contriving his ruin. 1 he hope of making his court to the Danish tyrant, and the expectation of a large reward, made this son of Ju das resolve to sacraficc his honor to his ambition, and, for the sake of a few ducats, violate the most sacred laws of hospitality, by betraying his guest. In pursuance of that base re solution he went straight to one of Christierns' officers, commanding in the province, and informed him that Gustavus was his prisoner. Having committed this treachery, he had not courage to face his victim, and tell ing the Dane how to surprize the Prince, who, he said, believed hi m self to be under the protection of a friend, (shame to manhood, to dare to confess that lie could betray such a confidenoe 1) he proposed taking a wider circuit home, while they, ap parently unknown to him, rifled it of its treasure. "It will be an easy mat ter," said he, " for not even my wife knows that it is Gustavus-'' Accordingly the officer at the head of a party of well armed soldiers, mar ched directly to the lake, The man invested the house, while the leader, found Pearson's abruptly entering, ife, according to the fashion of those w days, employed in culinary prépara At some distance from her t ions* sat a young man in a rustic garb, lop ping off the knois from the broken branches of a tree.—The officer went up to her, and told her he came in king Christiern's name to demand the rebel Gustavus, who he knew was concealed under her roof. Thedaunt less woman never changed colour; slit- immediately guessed the man, who her husband had Introduced as a minor's son, to be the Swedish hero. The door was blocked up by soldiers. In an instant she replied, without once glancing, at Gustavus, who sat mo tionless with surprise, ' If you mean the melancholy gentleman my hus band lias had here these few days, he has just walked out into the wood on the other side of the hill. Some of those soldiers may readily seize him as he lias no arms with him The officer did not suspect the «I easy simplicity of her manner; and ordered part of the men to go in quest of him. At that moment suddedly turning her eyes on Gusta vus, she flew .up to him and catchcd the stick out of his hand, exclaiming, in an angry voice, unmannerly wretch! What sit you before vour betters ?— Dont you see the king's officers in the room ? Get you out of my sight, or some of them shall give you a drub bing! As she spoke she struck him on the head with all her stiength; and opening a side-door, There, get into the scuilery, ciied she, it is the fittest place for such company! and giving him another knock, she flung the stick after him, and shut the door.—. ( Sure, added she, in a great heat, never was woman so plagued with such a clout of a servant. The officer begged she would not disturb herstrlf on his acconnt ; but the effected great reverence for the king, and respect for his représenta uve, prayed him to enter her parlour while she brought some refreshment. The Dane civily complied ; perhaps glad enough to get from the side of a shrew : and she immediately hasten ed to Gustavus. whom she had boult ed in, and by means of a back pas. sage conducted him in a moment to a certain little apartment, which pro jected from the side of the hou se close to the bank of the lake where the fisher's boat lay, she lowered hi m down the conveninent aperture in the scat, and epvmghim direction to an honest cura'e across the lake commit ted hnn to P or lUence."

It is sufficient-for our present pur-. posetosijr, that in the estimation of the whole community, eiOept tèat portion of it which from their position is exposed to perpetual collisions of interest or passion* they arc considered as en titled to all that justice and humanity which arr compatible with a gradual encroachment on and nf ^ grounds. There c:in be no 0 f t he moral right of a civilised commuai ^ as ,, r 0 g resses j n „umbers, to appropriate to the use of its citizens, the tracts of land in the p rev j ous occupation of savages; because the ver y couJitinn in which the latter ar« implies their total inability to rendev it the instrument of that beneficence which it was intended by the author of nature to bestow on the human race. But, while this right in the abstiact is justly viewed as indisputable, il is nevertheless subject to conditions and limitations which arc equally It is the oa the civilized community, ( j ut y 0 y ,\| 1( , \| illter t0 possession of it, if j, oss ,ble, by pacific means, and even to make considerable sacrifices of their immediate interest secure this end; if compelled eventually to resort to force, to apply it in such a way as to inflict the least possible injury on the savages ; and, above all, once possessed of it, to admims ter ju»:ice with an equal hand to tne white and re l people, giving the latter, so far as practica blc, an equivalent for their land, in the arts ami Power thus ( . om\|Virt , „ ltfmluccil among them, dispensed, will aim at elevating instead of de j )rt ., s j„j, their situation, at increasing their hap pi n esa instead ofdnving them by peKccution to despair, and at cherishing instead of extermina ting their race. To effect these desirable ends, it is necessary to inspire tiicin with two senti ments—a conviction of your power and of your justice. Now, it will be found lira review'of the measures in relation to this point adopted during the administration of Mr. Jefferson, tint these two cardinal ends have been fully secured, and that it is principally owing to those measures that a complete pacification of the Indians lins been accomplished. Durim? the administrations of bis predecessors, either an active warfare was carried oil with them, or in the intervals uf a hollow peace the frontiers weie constantly ex posed to alarm. Ever since lie assumed the Pisidency, all warfare has erased, and alarm on the frontier been dissipated. This lias not arisen hum any abandonment ot our pretensions, On tiie coutraiy we have during this period acquired more land than in an any equal antecedent peri od, and our western population has advanced with greater rapidity than it ever previously did. These happy and beneficent effects have flowed from tiie enlightened and just policy of a cabinet, intimately acquainted uilh human nature, and bem upon exercising power with a single eye to I tlie happiness of those on whom it was exercised. The means pursued are in themselves extremely simple ; so plain and obvious, that we arc sur lia prised at their not having been universally appli ed in die intercourse of civilized and savage com inimitiés. This surprise, however, is dispelled, when we contemplate thc fatal agency of super stition and a spoil of conquest in past ages. Heretofore tlie sword has invariably opened the power, and tiie fetters of superstition w.tv to hu,c unit irmly completed the victory, Govern ' î , meurs wielded by soldiers and priests, havin' despoiled the conquered of their property, have concluded by attempting to deprive thc-n of the consolations of their religion. In thc first result they have generally succeeded; but scarcely ever in tlie last. The religious sentiments, received from our fathers, are generally ■ oe-r to our hearts, that we prefer a sacrifice of life to their abandonment, and whatever outward conformi ty, we may exhibit to the cree l of our conquei ors, tiie conscience remains impregnable. \\ ith ilie-e ideas, doubtless, on his mind, Mr. Jeffer son has taken no pains to force upon the nations tlie Christian religion ; be has suffered them to enjoy thc religion of their lathers. But he has cone tli,it winch has entitled bun to their warm en benedictions i he has sent among them such men as Hawkins and Meigs; men beneficent, en lightened and practical, who have taught them t ie blessing ot propcity, and the advantages to he reaped horn thc cultivation of agriculture and tne aits. Under these auspices, the progress they- have already made, is wonderful. Many cf them till tiie ground, which they have enclo j seel, raise fruit trees, and are industiiously oe j cupied in domestic in nut factures, for tli e prose cution ot all ol which they have been liberally siq,plied with tiie means by thc agents appoint cd hy the government. And in this way, m tne short period of eight years, more substantia) progress has been made in civilization, than can be shewn by thc annas of the world to have taken place in any other region in half a century. I-et ignorance and tyranny, then, continue to join in theory against philosophy, While it is directed to such beneficent objects ; while it seeks its highest gratification and finds its bright est glory in increasing the mass of human hap piness ; while it exhibits the new and illustrious spectacle of reclaiming man by the arts from tlie savage stale and increasing his felicity by the comforts of civilization—it will continue entitled to our highest reverence, and those who dispense its blessings to out- warmest regard. - of The robber is generally the first to cry out " st °\|) thief." This is an adage almost us old as the world, and may be considered as illus trating a native propensity of vice. How happily docs this maxim, politically ap plied, suit the present times ! The < pponents of the administration charge the republicans with a desire to embroil thc country in the complicated horrors of a war with England—Why r Be suffi desire ? No;.

The era at which their laboors to attain this end commenced covers tlicir motives witii a blaze ot light that, properly improved, must dissipate all obsemity. That era was the French révolu it was at that illustrious period, when ù tion. >,! twenty five millions of human beings mtion brokc their fetters and asserted the dignity of freemen, that a deadly hatred was engendered, which his sustained no ah itcineut even to the Whence this hatred? From any present clay', we had then received from France ? injury wine! Nfi one pretends it. From any dang-r with ? So far from this, which rIic then menaced us she was then the object of commiseration instead of terror. No, it is not to these motives th it this hatred is to be ascribed; but to the obstacles which that revolution threatened to raise to the gay and splendid h 'pcs of political aggrandise ment that danced in no cisiant perspective lie lore tlie enrapture I view id a set of men, who from tiie beginning of the world have considered thnnscFt as the legitimate rulers of nations, io this b.i-ht vision of anticipated honours the revolution, II successful, thretuened a total «lisso I tit'on.

This body of men, livint; for tlie most paid in our towns, rich, intelligent, active and restless, for a time gave a tone to their politics and manners bom which, indeed, they have not yet com-j pletely recoveVed. This tone was extended into the country and reached even the government it S ' i.-„„i il,, , , l.ngland had been thc first to violate our ma. c u i ,1 ritime lights. .She had no sooner lormed a treu ty of peace, pledging hciself to respect our rhmts as an independent nation, which she had ac knowledgrd us to Lie, than slie commenced a a career of injustice towards tis, retaining the jio— session of our foils and territory, instigating tlie savages to the most merciless warfare, and prey iiig upon our defenceless trade on ÿic ocean.— I ins «cent of iniquity continued until the eel - brated treaty negouated by Jay.

About thc close of General Washington's ad- ! ministration the scene changed, and Trance, gui- j ded by erroneous counsels, listened to tlie intern- I perate dictates of revenge. She perceived, or iancied ih»r °he perceived, the poison of Hutirdi mfin-nce diflnsing itsell over the whole surface of our country. Hub this influence the identified a mortal hatred to lu-iscif. The example of En - gland, winch she had beheld witii honor, S \| K - now hersell imitated, ami undet tlie hollow pre text of retaliation, committed art extensive pil lage of our vessels. The attitude, which Un American nation took on that occasion, was ho norable ; the sentiments it inspired were worthy of an independent nation. France lcul injured us, and resistance became a holy duty. The virtue arid spirit ol tire people dictated résistance, and we did resist. But mark the tone and ton duct ot that class of pçopie, who now, a« they have long been, are streiiuou-lv by open or insi dious means promoting hostilities with France. to is Lock at the public prints of those days, peruse it the speeches of grave senators and flippant r epre sentatives, attend to the language of die Secretary of Stale intoxicated with power and elevation, listen to the intemperate strains of President Adams hiinsell ; and say whether the honest fer vor of tlie times Was not exacerbated and enve nomed by the most disgraceful hatred of Fiance, and say whether this hatred did tun spring from partiality , 0 England, and antipa thy to tlie system of equal rights, whose secu my was the object, although unfortunately it was not the result of the French revolution. 1 woind, says Senator Tracy, " arm every man, woman, and child in America, against every man, woman and child in France." Pickering, (blush, Americans, for the na of tional degradation) in a state pa,, et-, alluding a to the l tench, exclaims " the tyger crouches be,ore lie springs cn his prey," and President A.Uiiiri '.1:m'.-'.f. • tible honesty, condescends to use language in the highest degree unworthy of his evaitn! station. 11 y these menus, the national stnt; ment was literally converted into a whirlwind, and menaced, in its raging intolerance, to sweep before it every barrier ol liberty. Alien and sedition laws were iramed, the cockade ol tefcror was mounted, mobs were embodied, a vindictive denunciation pervaded every corner of the country and silenced freedom of speech, and the reign of terroi r as it was not more cm phaticaily than truly styled, was in lull ti< umpli.

And, notwith standing the disavowal of the British gov ernment, it is a most fortunate circumstance that the arrangement with Mr. Erskine was made, (t has proved to the satisfaction ol every man, whose esteem is desirable, that oup government, an.! the great body ofthose on whom they must rely for support, are devoted to the true interests of the nation, and sec those interests neither through the jaundiced medium of French or British at tachments. On taking this review, we are no longer surprised at the change which has recently taken place io public opinion. The delu sion which had before extensively prevail ed, is dissipated. The honest portion of the federal party, superior in number and talents to the residue, have awakened as from a dream, and appear determined to shake off their connection With their unwor thy associates. They have justly become alarmed for their reputation. They have realised their total degradation and ruin, if they continue to unite their destinies widi them. Having suffered themselves to pause, to reflect, and to judge for themselves, their native Ame rican leelings have revived, and they have patriotically resolved to support their go vernment so long as its measures are just and honorable. We rejoice to behold ibis temper, and we trust it will inclure, that fo reign nations may learn that whatever is re spectable among us will be embarked as in a common cause against their injustice. As to the republicans of the U. Suites, th$y are the last to wish a war with Eng land, so. long as it is not forced upon us by their wrongs. What can they gain by such a war ? Not the government; tor they pas sas it already. Not the increased prospe rity of the country, in which, being at least three-fourths of the whole nu'ion, they art most deeply interested ; lor they know that war, however it may terminate, is al Not an accession of li ways injurious, her tv ; they are satisfied with that they possess. Not a subversion of the consti tution ; they would defend it with their blood. No. By war they know they have nothing to gain. Their power, the popu larity of their government, its revenue, their liberties, all make the preservation ol peace to them an inestimable object. No thing can induce them to jeopardize it but the good of their country ; and when that shall imperiously require it. is there an A uteri cun base enough to say, that it ought not to be hazarded Ï —A Vf.

Among the ridiculous calumnies with which on a number of the federal prints teem (other re spectable prints of this denomination, xve admit as are characterised by a far cUIVerenl tone (none the is move unfounded than that which ascribes io the republicans n disnosilion to foment our mis Bc understandings with England into war. cause the late disavowal of Mr. Erskine's ar rangements has excited , the general indigna tion of the naiion and produced a universal Conviction that the motives of such a govern ment ought to he viewed with distrust, and j£ •lui» until its conduct shall be explained, it is nh-ui d to talk of its justice oi Iwvndsh.p ; be cause Us continued violations ot our lights, l when the cause it assigned itself for them has ceased, have been inculcated as furnishing grounds for the opinion that we have strong to calculate upon but that which shall of noli lin e be extorted from its fears ; because, under these circumstances the nation is guarded against the dangers o! false security—we are told that liiere sii'ong desire to precipate the U.8. into c is » • hr horrors of war.

Even Picketing and Quincy voted for them. The arrangement made with Mr. Erskine j ha? been extolled to the skies by the federalists.

A number of officers of distinction were killed on both sides. said to have been heard on the F'iritig was French coast, supposed to have been occa sioned in consequence ot tbe Preliminaries of Peace having been signed between Aus tria and France, and that by one of tbe arti cles tbe emperor Francis consents that the French shall occupy Vienna and the Arch duchy of Austria for six years. is It was stated on the authority of letters from Holland, that Bonaparte bad deter mined to incorporate the whole of that country with France; and that his brother Louis, is to be made king of the territory : i - bout to be wrested from Austria. the ♦he gloom which envelopes tfic political ho- j' mon, says a London paper, is rapidly increas- j ing anti lorms a lamentable contrast to tire sun- \| T shine of hope with which it was so lately ilia- j mined.

From that moment the grand object ol our expedition was frustrated— the blow was struck, and it was imposihic to hesitate in believing that our efforts had been procrastinated until the accomplishment of lire grand object of the armament had become im practicable. 1 lie expedition, however, at last sailed on the 2Uth of July ; and on the 8th of August, an army ol 50,0l)b British troops, the ;'test appointed, perhaps, of any equal number of men ever assembled fora militai y purpose, '' ami ? ippurleil by an irresistible fleet, is hover ing lit lore the town of Flushing, a place which c nave been led to believe, from many qual iei s, and some of them most tespectuble, would if :.dl an easy conquest to even a flying squadron Wit.i a tew tnousand men.

ROBERT POUTER, of this town, M has issued proposals for publishing the above excellent Book, ,liy swfcscrip.ton, on good paper, and with a plain common sized type, at the very low price o lfifty cents. Perhaps, next to tile Bible, this is the best bonk extant for private and family use....No one is better calculated to awaken, convince and convert sinners, and to conduct them m the straight and narrow path to Heaven ; as doubt less the experience of many can witness...No one is more highly esteemed by pious people of all denominations, as is abundantly evident frrtm the numerous editions it has passed through both In this country and Europe. As the proposed price is only half the sum h is now selling for ip. most of our Book-stores, it will be seen, that neither the Printer nor an y f persons who promote the woik, nave any oh jeet in view, but the good ol souls, and the glo y ol God. . « . . c It IS presumed that every one who wishes for the spiritual rise anti progress of religion in ins own soul, or his family, will subscribe, and •hat all friends of religion will encourage the work.

NATIONAL INTELLIGENCER. Otfcmee of Mr. Jefferson's Administration. No. IX Having disclosed our detailed view %f the internal measures pursued dur ing Mr. Jefferson's administration,we are naturally brought to a consider ation of the general situation of the country. Is it prosperous or wretch ed ? The answer to this inquiry will conclusively decide, independently of every other consideration, the merits of his administration. For if it is prosperous, its prosperity must flow either directly from the measures of the government, or virtually from the government having abstained from every measure calculated to check the natural progress of the country. Let the appeal then be carried to the conscience of every honest man by requiring a true answer to the fol lowing questions. Is there a political right dear to free men that has been invade,d during Mr. Jefferson Administration ? Is there at present a human being who can justly affirm that he is not in the actual enjoyment of all the lib erty that is compatible with a good government ? Has the right of suffrage, in any part of the union, been abridged ? Has it not, on the contrary, been greatly extended ? T Have the broad principles of religi ous liberty in a single instance been violated ? Has the property of any one been invaded ? Is there not, at this moment, the securest enjoyment of liberty, relig ion and property ? Has there been any increase of pub lic burthens ! On the contrary, has there not been a great reduction of them connected with a redemption of thirty millions of the public debt ? Has not the quota of taxes paid by each individual sensibly diminished, so much so, that at present only one dollar and sixty cents are annually paid, while at the commencement of Mr. Jefferson's administration two dollars and eighteen cents were annu ally paii! by each individual ? Have not the numbers of our peo ple increased in as rapid a ratio, as h is ever before been known on the face of the earth, and is not this an un equivocal evidence of prospeiity ? fias not our wealth increased in tli'- same, if not in an accelerated ra tio ? - Has the labourer, during the whole of Mr, Jefferson's administration, warned ^employment, or the capital ist been v nable to find objects for a lucrative business? Have not monied institutions, evinc ive of thegi eataccumuiation of riches, sprung up in every part of the union ; and have tliev not all prospered ? Have not the arts that contribute to comfort risen with unexpected vi gor, and those that embellish life evin. ced a sensible progress ? Do we not ourselves, as well as the whole civilized world, consider our national existence, liberty and pros perity as placed upon firmer foundati ons than were thought to support them at the commencement of Mr. Jeffer son^ administration ? Is there ail Amei ican citizen, or in telligent foreigner, that will admit that our situation, compared with that of any other nation, is happy and even enviable ? X'inaily, ïs there an American, who can pin. his hand on his heart, and af firm that ti c situation of his country is less prosperous now than at the commencement of Mr. Jefferson's administration he expected it would be ? These various questions admit of but one reply, which proves the exis tcT.ce of à solid internal prosperity, that, it n»oy •be safely pronounced, has never been the lot of any other people. n> A nation thus prosperous within may bid defiance to foreign injustice. Its posterity is indeed abundant proof of its involnerability, and,consequent as ly (whatever delusion may tempora rily prevail,) of the impotence of the folly that sports with its feelings and tramples upon its rights. F30M THE AVRORA. SCF.ME OF A SAT JO SAL BASK. _ ,. Let an act of Congress pass, establishing general and national back, and assum- p one ing lUe stock of all private batiks, with their capital and debts.clue. Let the stockholders first draw fi per cent, and then half the surplus, not exceed ing 3 per cent—the remaining surplus to go to the use of the government. The directors to be appointed, one fourth by the president, and the rest elee'ed by the S stQckholdersJwuhin the states. ^ Every deposit of cash to draw o per cent. s interesf, whether it be private or public pio perty, with a privilege to take stock a, the end of one year, at a price to be fixed a, the prcceJing annual term by Congress, and ihe profits of the sale of new stoc to go to the use of the government. [Minordetails omitted.] The benefits arising out of such an esta l.lishment are many and1 important. In the first place, an interest of perhaps o per cent. on 100,000,000 ot dollars, would go to the national treasury, or 300,000 per annum— In the next place the string of tneonventen ces arising from having so many different kinds of paper in circulation as there are banks, would be avoided, whilst the alarms ol one bank suffering a ruin from others would cease, and a 1 doubts about the safe lyand security of bank paper would soon be forgotten, and this paper become the en- , tire mccium, gwing »ta n tty to govern ment finances, and attachment to mooted tatet ests. Nor u it of small importance to bring this subject within the grasp of the general government, i only to prevent the abuse into wh.ch it wilUurely run from the of banking institiAoni, from mal increase states, towns and persons carrying the banking business to excess, ami from burg more difficult to detect counterfeit, wf.r . j the kinds of paper mediuin are so nv-mc ; rous and various Three millions annual y to the lre3tm, wuh the other public and private advanu ges being ot serious concern to trie nation it remains to enquire what are the ° >jec lions to it. V ill the present stockholders refuse to surtender their charters and blend their interest in hodge podge ? Without entering into the inducements which stockholders would find in a general amalgamation of bank stock, under the fes tering influence of government—I shall consider the power of congress to force them to acquiesce, or cease to lie stockhold ers; there choice would therefore be the re sult of necessity, or choice of the lesser evil, which, if not the most pleasant, is always the most sure ground to go upon. It is well known that before and during the revolution, bills of credit were emitted by the states and by congress, solely for the public benefit and no such thing as banks suffered. These bills of credit sup ported the- state and general government», and would have supported the war, but for the excesses of the emissions, which redue. ed its value, and finally sunk it into no va. lue, which though not without its advanta ges to the public, fell very heavy on the mo ! nied interest. That, at the formation of the j general constitution for the union, it. was thought prudent to take from the states the \| right to issue bills of credit; in order to pre- j vent such another catastrophe—hence, we \| find it provided in section 10, article Î, "No I state shall coin money, emit bills of credit," I See. Here then it is clearly unconstitution al for a state to emit bills of credit—and by inferrence of sound policy what cannot Ire done dtreciy, cannot indirectly. It there- j fore only remains to examine if a bank note j be a bill oj credit , to determine whether the charters granted t» the banking companies by the states are valid. To try this ques tion, suppose the states to issue a paper cur rency in the words of a bank note, would such paper be constitutional? As this ques tion is answered, it will follow either that the charters are void, or the states have shamefully thrown a very important inter est from the people into the hands of a mo nied few, and which indirectly violates the provisions of the state constitutions, which declare* that all linos shall be equal, and yet suffers these chartered stockholders to draw 8, XO, er 12 per cent, while other laws for. hid more than 6, under the penalty of for felt and fine. J I cannot, however, think it necessary to consume time in proving what must be too clear to need proof; that a bank note, or a n> piece of paper purporting that the bearer shall receive the nominal amount is a bill of matter what the words are—or credit, no that what a state cannot do in its capacity as a state,'it cannot do by third persons, and consequently that every charter granted 1» unconstitutional and void. It then follows to enquire, if stich is the case, can congress grant a charter, and ought congress to do so ? The constitution has no where given, in express language, the power to emu hills of credit—But it has given impliedly all the which the state* are debarred from oowers and expressiv the power to provide p or general welfare ; to borrow money; (o c0 - n monev . to punish counterfeiting, gj C- Although it is clear the right of con SR ; s better than the right of the states, .j- a doub , existed, there is nn doubt but an amcntlmfint m j g ht be had to give the power expressly.

We are happy to find that the delusion and infatuation which existed among the fe. deral citizens of the New England Slates in consequence of the pressure of the Em bargo, &c. which the enemies of our govern ment took infinite pains to represent as an oppressive and unconstitutional measure, is fast passing away. The late elections in Rhode IsLi.d and Vermont fully demons trate the tact. We congratulate our repub lican fellow citizens on the glorious result of these elections, as well as on the great change which has taken place in the minds of the people of this state in con sequence of the perfidy of the British gov. eminent; so that we can calculate almost with ce nattily, that the next spring elections will give a large rnojoiity of votes for the !

He would in t,he first place take care to make war without the shadow of a pre rtnee, and put himself clearly in the wrong be. 'fore all Europe ; he would next delay doing any ' thing until the season for operations was nearly gone by; he would then probably treat n little, and be duped by hit allies, and cavil and wran gle a good tleal, and quarrel with some of them, and excite a hatred with all of them, and t,( himself, and a contempt of his plan, among Ins own subjects. But all these preliminaries of fai ure being settled, he would at last come to his operations; ami his policy would be to gei up a number of neat little expeditions, equal in number to the things lie wants to take, just one for each thing. He would send an expedition towards Sweden ; and (he sea not Ireiiig his ele ment, it would probably fail of itself. He would then send a tolerably large and intolerably ex pensive expedition to some port of Germany—, and another towards It dy—a smaller expedition to Portugal—a nice little one to take a slice off Bavaria—besides a sort of by expedition to plun der Hamburgh, and burn, for stage effect, some other capital in alliance with him, merely to as tonish people and look vigorous. Instead of enquiring wh it would probably be the result of all this drivelling, winch is indeed too plain to require any statement, let us .remark rather how Bonaparte i 'ms act, nut bavin" En glish politicians to advise him. He leaves N-> plesalone; if Joseph can suppott himself well; if not, he will restore him after the campaign is won. He leaves Sicily alone, filled will) English' troops, who are just as usefully employed for him, as if be had them in his depot of prisons» —filled too with the squabbles and intrigues of his faithful -allie» the old royal sovereigns and courtiers of Europe.. Portugal he leaves to the English army, there assembled for the precise purpose of doing all soits of nothings in iiim. lie cares not if the English are mad c nough to make a descent on C/labria in his ab sence, or childish enough, because it may have a partial success, to reward those who ventured on so useless u.r enterprise, instead of calling them to an instantaneous and severe account. All other objects of subordinate imjiortanre, he leaves in like manner to themselves. The bwede is allowed to strut his little hour of squibs, ma nifestoes, and bulletins. I'he Tutk is unmolest ed ; except by his allies, Egypt is occupied by none but English forces. Eager fot ships, coin, nies and commerce, he defeis ail trading specu lations till the season of victory and peace ; nor envies at all the plunder of the rajahs of the east, nor once throws away a thought on all the su gars of the west. Gut hi* game is not the less sure for being more contracted in its sphere. He singles out the vital part of his whole adversaiy, and the point of it which is most exjroscd. In that vulnerable part be plants bis dagger ; and he know» full well, that the icmotest limb uilj quiver, with the shock, He sends forth Ins host in the plen.tilde of its array, to sweep ovçi tho interjacent regions, and to pour itself in one grand, deep, but contracted and therefore irre sistible torrent, into the center of the strength uf Europe. Here, as near'Berlin and Vienna as he can he fights his battle ; and while you aie menacing the western departments—or landing and re-embarking in Italy—or capitulating in Holland—or idling ia Portugal and Egypt—or butchering your friends in the north—or bury •g your own men and planting the slave tr-dc in the West-Indies—he is playing that great game which must place in his hands the sweep of all those small stakes for which you are pre tending to throw. Do you doubt whether hr shall win the game he plays for ? If you do, why then don't you send your men tiler« to meet him ? Think you that he even doubts of his suc cess? It may be that he docs—but he know» that the only way to gain it is to think of noth ing else than victory, and at any rate, to think of no other contest than this ; above all, he feels, the folly of being either victorious, or vanquish ed in a little way. He knows, that if he con quers the imperial or the Prussian arms in the center of the empire, lie shall ^ud no difficuhy in carrying all the other points—no trouble but preventing the escape of your forces from the in little posts which they have been senselessly oc cupying ; and, if he should be overcome in Ger many he must make up his mind, not merely to the loss of those petty objects, but to icing aver tit Germany —to the utter ruin of his foreign co/nc power. Plain and simple as this consideration is, and constantly as we have seen him act UpCQ U, we have never yet been able to profit by hie example, . an ^ hy the sight of those victories which he has achieved, so as to alter, in the very lea« degree, our own fatal flalien toward* all our allies.

In proportion to our population, there are double the num her ber within the U. States engaged in com merce, and in the common line of store keeping, shop-keeping, 8tc. than in any part did of Europe. Our seaports are filled with this kind of traders, ami every town in the country has a large proportion of these re tailers of foreign merchandise. Nearly an if eighth part of the citizens are employed as mere agents to se'.l the manufactures of oth er nations. This class of citizens it is sup posed might pursue a business in the manu facturing branches vastly more lucrative, and equally honorable. A hearty robust man, to sit beside his counter from morn ing till night, just to attend a few customers, cannot be so profitably employed, as if he turned his attention to some more active bu siness in the manufacturing line. If instead of such an immense boJy of mere' shop kesping traders, we had about the third of the number engaged in the various branch es of manufactures, there is no doubt they would obtain a much better living, than in buying and selling foreign articles, The price of rents for shops and stores much greatly exceed the hire of large convenient places near the seaports; and by the erec tion of mills, and the use of machines, in a few years the persons would find them selves as well rewarded for their undertak Tne cotton manufactory has become log st veev extensive and profitable branch of business. The employment of women and children establishes a habit ot industry ; such children earn a handsome support for their parents, and place themselves in a situa tion above dependence when they arriveto years of maturity. How much more beneficial is this employment both for children and parents, than t-> spend four or five years behind a coun ter to k-arn howto retail articles which they might be able to manufacture for themselves. Lost. Citron. Progress nf Manufactures. Air. Seth Wheaton at!d others, of Providence, R. I. have lately erected a Cotton Mill of stone, ith six floors, forty feet wide and two hundied w and eleven feet long, competent to drive mote than ten thousand spindles, which is expected to commence working in November. We ate gratified to see, that in that part of the 'Union, a manufacturing spirit pervades the peo ple. There aie said to be more than fifty Cor ton Mills erected in the Ncw-England States ; d the artists employed in them are in all re an spects equal to Eutopeans. Not only spinning, bit weaving establish ments are in operation, so that we may soon'ex pect tue Ncw-England cotton fabrics supplant ing those of Old-I-.ngland. In the present state of ouraffuirs, it is peculiar ly gratifying to learn, that, notwithstanding the opposition of tones, and the wiles of incendiai tes, the manufactures of our country arc gradually gaining ground. In Shippensburg, Pennsylvania, (a post town, containing about 20(1 houses) there are 3 woolen and 4 cotton railing machines, and fifty-five spindles, which upon a moderate calcu 89 dozens, or 441bs. of cotton lation, will average Thus far the operations are car yarn per day. ihd en without robbing agriculture or commerce of one useful hand, fur none but women and chil dren are employed.

Notwithstanding the low price of British goods, •want of capital and every disadvantage, thebusi ness gradually extending, and new establishments daily erecting. Two establishments of no inconsiderable mag nitude arc contemplated in the vicinity of Kings ton, Ulster county, N. Y. One is a giass-house, which is tobe erected in Woodstock, by the U1-. ter Glass Manufacturing Company. Sand, sup-' posed to he suitable for making glass, is found in abundance near the site.— The other is a Cotton Manufactory, to contain one thousand spindles, to be erected by Air. Geo. Eddy.

Do you not now tell us, that she never did make such propositions—and do you not censure Air, Erskine for acting without instruc tions ? 3d. Were you guilty of falshood and misre presentation then, or are you guilty now ? and if you shamefully ami basely deceived your read ers at the election, do you really think you arc entitled to their confidence oil any occasion?

ACHMET AND FATIMA. Achmet Manor» was an acCTom plished young nianofa distinguished lamily in Belgrade, a town belonging to the Turkish dominions, situated on the river Danube, An event that crowned his wishes and seemed to complet«, his earthly happiness was his marriage to Fatima, a lady of exqui site beauty, and rare accomplish ments, and was the only daughter of Hasan Buglo, a bashaw in the ar mies of Turkey. Their marriage w^as solemnized on the 4th of July. 1789; and the evening of the same day the town of Belgrade was beseig ed by the Austrian troops. Although the seige was strtklen, it of the principal families had r, made their «scape, before the place invested by the enemy ; was but Achmet had been too much occupied with the affairs of his wedding to pre pare for flight untill it was too late... The town was in a manner surroun d'd by a powerful army panting for •onquest and thirsting lör blood ; and tu, te was reason to expect, if it were taken by storm,that the female part of Lie inhabitants would fall victims to the brutal violence of a licentious soldiery, to which the singular beauty of td.ima would but more expose her. In these circumstances of extreme distress, and terror, Achmet efeter mined at all hazards to convey his bride to a place of safety. He had her dressed as a young man of fashion, and j>u ting himself in the habit of a slave, left the town at 12 o'clock at night, hoping to reach some safe re treat before the return of day. They ttaii scarce begun their «lidrnght wan derings, when loud peals ol thunder increased the terrors of Fatima. The rain fell in turrents, the darkness in creased, they wandered about bewil dered and forlorn till day appeared, when they found themselves surroun ded by a patrolling party of Austrian soldiers, and were seized and hurried to the main guard By order of the Prince of Saxe Coburg who com rpmded the Austian army, they were examined apart, and as their story was contradictory, they were condemned to he executed as spies. Fatima was informed that she had but half an hour to live. She receiv. ed this sentence with composure, and only begged that her servant might be permitted to carry her a few tri fling articles as remembrances to her friends ; for she had still indulged a hope that Atchmet, passing for a slave would be free from suspicion and out of danger- But scarce had she finish ed that request when she beheld her beloved Achmet passing by under a guard of armed men : with extreme agitation, she inquired what was to be his fate, and was answered, that they were conducting him to instant death. At the word death she gave a piercing shreak, and fell from her seat in convulsions. The officer present flew to her assistance : and nnbuttoniijg her waistcoat to give her air, they perceived that their prison er was a woman. The execution of Achmet was sus pended ; and the prince of Coburg was informed of the particulars ! He examined them himself, and hav ing learned their real situation, he furnished them with suitable garments and the same day had them conducted to a village whither their disconso late friends had previously fled from the beseiging army.

Drill,re of Mr. Jrjfhrroii's Administration. No. X. [CONCLI'IIU).] A nation, thus piospcrous within for an nn interrupted period of eight years, can have no just reasi r. to comjilaiii of the niaiiagcinent of her foreign relations. However, indtetl, these re lations may have been corite-tcd in detail, their having secured tiie only end for which they were adopted, the welfare of the community, is the Y most indi-putahle proof of their wisilot tunatcly too it is a proof, which, addressing it self equally to the feelings and the judgment, must succeed alike in convincing the virtuous and the intelligent classes of soeicty. Satisfied with this result, the defence of Mr. Jefferson's administration, so far as relates to ioreign af fairs, m'ght be here safely rested ; and that fame might be viewed as reposing on adamant, which is guarded by the felicity and gratitude of a na tion. But we might, perhaps, be considered as neglecting to do justice to the subject, should vve omit to notice in a gcneial way the various important me. sures who h have flowed from our intercourse with the foreign world. Let not the reader be alarmed at the appre hension of a tedious discussion ol topics, which although of genuine intrinsic importance, have recently so exclusively occupied the public mind as to have almost lost their capacity of en ng attention. It is farthest from our intention to en;- r into a learned argument on points long since at rest. l'iie justice and wisdom ot tiie measures pursued for a few years have been fi nally decided by the voice of the peotde constitu tionally pronounced. and especially by theclei tion of the successor to Mr. Jefferson, who, wc sincerely believe, will, in every essentially con cern, tread itt Ins foot-step". When Mr. Jefferson came to the Presidency, tiie situation of our external affairs was critical ,f ! and a . -. The tempest, that previously raged (til. I on ,\| le timber side of the Atlantic, and had c I , tcn(iei , its jn R0 small !1KaMjre to us , j „„j of , hushed, was infuriated by t c;ireer uf Mr . Adams. I have no doubt but that the general course of his measures was dictatci! . by patriotism ; but, fatally destitute of wisdom, the to derision and ; they exposed the government to derision and contempt, and the dearest interests of the .talion to imminent hazard. They operated, indeed, in a most powerful degree, to destroy union at we home, and tespect abroad. to Mr. Jefferson no lomier succeeded than the scene completely changed, and external danger almost entirely vanished. It is u- cless to enquire, whether this ; rose iiom the particular measures adopted by him, or from the respect entertained tor his character. The tact is certain, ami u eitner ease attests the signal benefit gained by his of succession. The sail of commerce was unfurled, and spread, by the enterprise of our merchants. I iy in every sea. Capital and labor and talent were quickened into vigorous life by an abundant re ward, that dirted its cheering ray into even corner of the nation. Mr. Jefferson wisely and honestly determined to place and maintain his country on neutral ground. Every past and pro-p-xti VIC' which h:s acute and comprehensive mind could take ol the interests of his country, concurred to convince him that they were best to be pro moted by a faithful neutrality. The inspirations ol philanthropy and the precepts of philosophy scaled Ute patriotic award, which was still fur ther strengthened by the powe.l'ul claims of a free government not to suliy its infant purity or cioud its future glory by an unjust participation in European contests. Here then Mr. Jefferson e placed himself as upon a roelc, which might bid. defiance lo defection and treachery within, or injustice and violence without, He succeeded, perhaps, beyond his utmost hopes, Look at in? inaugural speech, that glowing picture of a he-tt lull ot his country's happiness, pass in review the great objects which lie there presented a? worthy ot being accomplished, and you will And the' that, with a singular good luriur.e whi.lt ha, j rrnely attended any one, he in tiie- short coinpiss it, of eight years effected them all. And when wc extend our contemplation to the means by which they were accomplished, and belrol i the in enn sninmatcd, with t war or violence, by peacea ble and common means, wc should tic lost to honor and truih did we not ascnbe them, ar least in an eminent degree, to the wisdom that devi seil, und tue vigsij that executed them. Jt was, in this honest spirit, that he h <1 our differences wish F runic, without leg.uvlim- tlie loolish or toriupt clamors of ti-.t- faction rhat opposed him ; and it was, in the same spirit. that lie soon after ratified the convention with England, which, fora while at least, suspended our collisions with her. The same spirit, d iaw mi mg good from evil, seized the pertentous rno ment of oar »WF. icr.< «1 -a« tit Spain, (0 ;u q. n> Louisiana, a .possession, which, w'nei I cr we siller the means by wliic.h it was oiitainei! con the evils which the moilc of its acquisition vatw quishetl, or the effects it has already produced with those which remain to ensue, is destined t () throw an unfading beam of gloty on Mr. Jcffei son. It may really be questioned, whether il, e annals of history present an analogous instance of such a brilliant concurrence of foresight, f ur . titude and good loitune. A 1 was now tranquil except in the Mediter ranean. There our little navy, called upon to do its duty, promptly inflicted upon the pirates a chastisement which has ever since kept them in complete subjection ; so that r.ow even K 11 - gland herself, with her gigantic flotilla and boundless treasure, does not enjoy a more per fect exemption from their depredations than we do. Not can it be questioned, but that this signal proof of naval prowess has convinced I', u ropcan nations of our ability, whenever we shall deem it expedient, to embaik a force on the ocean which shall be even formidable to them. Wc come now to the more recent measures of the government and the causes which gave There is no man who will he- * birth to them. silate to admit that, at the close of the tear 1807, an imperious necessity was imposedUp on the government to adopt some decisive mea sures. The st.li unatoned outrage on the Chesapeake, our captive seamen every day swelling in number, orders and decrees expos ing to capture and confiscation by far the great est part ol our vessels and tlieit cargoes, pro duced a loud call from the whole nation for re dress or vengeance. With this popular senti ment the government had the cauls in tlie-r own hands, and could have carried the nation into war with the greatest ease. Indeed the only difficulty was to restiuin them from war. But, with a temperance, rarely found in cabi nets, the decision was made in favor of peace, and the embargo adopted as the only remain* ing measure, that was at once efficient and im partial. Never was a measure more virtuous ly taken. Those who advised it kne verv well the opposition it would excite, and its con sequent effects upon their own popularity — But there are seasons wh.n consequences ought not to he calculated, anti when personal party considerations ought to be disdainfully re jected. Under the patriotic impression, Mr. Jefferson, relying oq the virtueaad discern ment ol the people, proposed the embargo.- This confidence was, unfortunately, misplaced. A large portion of them were deluded, and ex cited an opposition so formidable as to neutre hse the effects wit ch would otherwise have in disputably flowed front it. It was abandoned amidst the regrets of the most enlightened and virtuous pint of the community, For the ef fects of this relinquishment Mr. Jefferson and Itis friends are not answerable. They opposed it with all their might, and only adopted the it with all their might, and only adopted the system of non-intercourse, w hen tve ior the continuance ol the embargo was lost. Had the embargo been maintained tve have almost positiv e proof that it would have brought our enemies to terms. It is now certain that the expectation of ils continuât ce produced the favorable arrangement made with Mi. Er skine. If the mere expectation had this effect, what might we not have obtained iiom the cer tainty of its duration ? With the cursory notice of one other topic we shall conclude. From the commencement to the clo-e of Mr. Jefferson's administration, there has not been ceded a solitary tight or pre logative of sovereignty or neutrality. Notwith -.taiuling tire colossal power of France and En gland, nothing has been yielded to either but rig'd justice. They have, it is true, flagrant y violated our rights; hut it has been lire violation of force, against which we have steadily pio t'sled. No present boon has been ingloiious I iy purchased with a surrender of permanent in terest. Thus, if we have not boldly resisted -mr enemies, we have cherished ail tire means of eventually asaer.ing out rights with unsulli ed honen'. CULTIVATION OF THE CRAPE, It is with great satisfaction that we are cna bled to inlorm the public, on unquestionable authority, that several of the most valuable 1 lunganaii \ ints arc successfully propagated iu tiie vicinity of Hagers 1'uwn, in the stale of Man kind. I hree or four yeats ago a number ol emigrants lrom Hungary, who had been pnncipally occupied in their own country in me culture of tiie vine, settled near Hagers lown, and baling brought with them a coiisi dtralile collection of roots or cuttings, imme diately formed vineyards ; some of one, some oi tw o, and some of five acres. This is tiie third year since they were planted, and such has been the happy success with which their labors have been awarded, that there is at pte stnt the fairest promise of sufficient fruit to make a good quantity ol wine. Every cucum stance, either of sod or climate, favors the fi nal success ol dns interesting experiment. The vines aie plauud at a distance of Iiom five to eight feet apart ; il is said that eight feet an swers better than a smaller distance. Tile greater part of the work requisite lias been to done with the plough. Very few of the plants have failed and the whole vineyard exhibits an unifotni appearance, They flourish as ivti), are cultivated with equal ease, and bear as a* <1 bundantly, as in the original soil from which they have been taken. Upon the whole, th»se interested in the issue consider the experiment as conclusive, having completely realised their most sanguine expectations.

States. We are advised, on good authority, that in the State of Pennsylvania, on the West ern bank of the Monongahela, a very conside rable number of Vineyards, some of a large ex tent, have succeeded so well as to yield a hand For some profit for the wine made. They are likewise reared by the German emigrants. Of the Hungarian wines, it is the peculiar property, they can be easily kept without bran dy. for any length of time, with a steady im- 1 provement of quality ; for this purpose, they it are put into casks, previously cleaned in a most careful manner, which are deposited in a cool to cellar or vault. They are fit for use the se say cond year, but are generally improved by being kept lor two or three years longer. We are promised with a full statement of the situation of these interesting establish ments, which shall be communicated to the public the moment it is received. The importance of this information will fully speak for itself. If this inestimable plant ran be so successfully reared in this country, as to yield a plentiful supply of good wine for our consumption, the advantages will be incalcula ble. The instance of France, indisputably the best wine country in the world, proves how in timately connected the sobriety ol our common people is with the general command of this pleasant beverage at a reasonable price; and we must admit, however reluctantly, that the greatest desideratum among us is an effectual substitute for and antidote to the prodigal con sumption of whiskey, which is at this moment is more actively employed in the demoralization of our citizens, than, perhaps, all the other causes of the corruption of manners. The ex perience of other nations has shewn that the juice of the grape, when cheap, is infinitely preferred to any other liquor. It is no mean additional consideration that the genera! cultivation of the grape w ill extend our field of agricultural employment, by adding a new product to those at present raised, and it will be the means of bringing into value a large portion of land, now either abandoned to total neglect, or used to very little profit. Nor should the beamy with which this spe cies of cultivation adorns a country be consi dered altogether unimpoitniit, as it necessarily tends to make us more conttti'ed with, if not proud of our country, and really, in a variety of ways, increases that species of enjoyment, which is certainly among the most innocent and virtuous known to the human heait. if to all these motives be superudded the im mense saving that will accrue from making our own wine, instead of importing it, and the po litical benefit of rendering ourselves as indepen dent of the foreign world as possible, it will be generally acknowledged that this object is scarcely inferior in importance to any which can be named. Already with a population of seven millions, and with oui frugal habits, v.e consume foreign wines ai d brandies to the a mount ol five millions of dollars. In 50 years •we shall h ive reached a population of at least 30,000.000, when our demand for this beve rage will cost us more than twenty millions of uullars. Aill. llllll. Federalism, like Achilles of old, seems to have but one vulnerable part; and that is the part of England. This is the solitary fibre by which you can reach the grand fe deral sensorium. Abuse the President of the U. Statss as much as you please; insult every officer of government, civil and military, from J. Q. Adams and Armstrong to the lowest civil officer, and from gen. Wilkinson to a Cor poral in the army, and you will not hear a lisp of displeasure from the leaders of what called federalism. But dare to venture a IS disrespectful hint towards his Britannic ■Majesty's Minister, Jackson, and federal ism is convulsed with wrath; then it is that we hear of the decency and decorum which should govern our dealings with public cha racters. The newspaper publications re specting Mr. Jackson, say the federal lead ers, is enough to disgrace our country for ever; yet they can see no disgrace in the foul and vulgar abuse which has for years been discharged against the rulers of our country 1 When the President of the U.

II we have been, and still are able to con tend with the British lion, who, in his na val power, flies on the wings of the wind and bears the thunder of the tem pest—is it not unwise to gorge his rapacity' and contribute to his strength, from a fear that his power will he subdued, or transfer ed to other hands, that have not, and lor a century to come, cannot have the skill to use it with such desolating effect as it is is now used ?

On this point common sense would say, let the legisla Hires of the different stutes conciliate parties ; let the real interests of the country he calmly considered ; let us discountenance local dis tinction ; let us become more constitutional, and consequently more national, by becoming more United ; let it no longer be Masacliu sians and Virginians, New-Yorkers and Penn sylvanians, but Amènent 1 , : then shall we be come more respected and formidable abroad, more collected and happy at home ; let us also instead of talking, net ; lor foreign nations will not believe that we are in earnest until we make a display of something more than mere words V .

Petf.hs - ar.ti, June 14. " It is universally known how firmlv Russia has endeavored for ages to protect »he »racle of neutrals during the ivar carried on hv European powers; it is notorious, ■wih what courage that Empire has shelter ed »hv interests of trading nations from the fur" of the war. True to these unalterable prir.cifii-s, we entertained a hope that dur ing 'he present rupture with England, the trade with allied nations would also offer no motive to them of a different direction. But the experience of last year has convin ced us that the envoiv has found means to misuse neutral bottoms for the benefit of his trade, and we feel accordingly obliged to adopt the following measures, in order to prevent it in future. " 1. Every captain whs enters any of our ports, is bound to prove his ship or vessel to be neutral property by the passport, the bill of sale, and the log book, and the cargo to be sold by the charter party, the hill of lading, his own declaration, and a certificate of the origin of the goods, in cases where the whole or part of the cargo belongs to the captain or agent, and the ship has set •ril from America or the West Indies, or is bound for those ports. Should any of those documents be wanting, the captain shall immediately leave th.e port, and not be permitted to décharge the cargo. " II. Ships in port, laden with goods wh'ch can be proved to be the production of anv enemv's country, shall be detained, the goods declared confiscated, and sold puhlieklv in behalf of the crown. If the goftrlh amount to more than one half of the cargo, not only tile lading hut the ship shall be d eclarvd confiscated. A pasport given hv a neutral, " III. frientllv, or a lied power will not he suds cient for ihe justification of the captain, if any circumstances appear which do not a gree with the passport, or if the name of the ship mentioned in the passport does not a gree with that found in the other papers of the ship, unless it clearly appears that the pap-rs have been duly signed bv persons having the proper authority, in which case the difference in the names shall not make against the captain. " IV. The passport given to the captain shall tint be aclitv wlcdgetl legal, if the ship supplied with it shall not have been, at die lime specified, in the pori in the name of which the pa,sport »s given. " V VVii,.n any s'iii-, 'u ercirgo, captain, at'-l more than one thiul of the enw, sh.,li be sub-ects if an hostile power, or when on hoard a"y ship there shall he no muster toll, signed bv ;h.- officers of the neutral place from which tb - «Ido s .ile t, the Ship and cargo shall be declared confiscated t» the use of the crown, bu» th rews shall ho set at liberty. If the pa; ujurt produced by the cap .. v tahi s'vaP be f 1 e, cr forged, the ship and car l's de «red confiscated to »lu* use of go sii,u the I'c cr.ptiiin delivered iT': cr to dost as a forger.

If the captain shall endeavor to defend cro himself, but bring no sufficient proofs, the ship shall lie detained, and time, if requested, be granted to the captam to ptoctire them from the place of his departure. If at the expiration of the unie granted, he produces no proofs, tht sliip and cargoshall he confiscated. " V111. Every ship not built by a fiiendlv power shall not he considered as neutral, unit* ss it can be legally proved by its papers that it was bought or transferred hclort the declaration of war ; if this does not appear, the slop and cargo shall be confiscated to the use of the crown. ' IX. If the master or captain of a ship shall be a native of a hosiile nation, and have pass ports front a neutral or friendly power, these shall not avail him, unless they prove that he nechnie the subject of, aud resided with a neu tral power b. ore the declaration of war.

No. I, As. enquiry INTO the National Charac tiie United TIR or THE pee or States or America. !_oe real chancier of everv nation is a ; object of interest!: consideration. Tu ihciuseiv'.s it i$ plain, that an enquiry into iheii circumstanr s and qualities as a poll lirai famiiv, will h ive me.iy of the preciou» consequences of .vcy-examination. To the I rest of mankind, numerous monitions a gainst evil or inducements to good mav be j offered by those, who faithfully cornier! j such investigations. The present character of the people of the Untied States of America, as the only independent civilized nation ol this quarier of the world, is peculiarly important and in teresting. The northeru part of the Ame rican continent which they inhabit, is much larger than aH Europe—than all Christen dom—than all the other parts of the civiliz ed world. Their dominions are united in one connected body, c nhining the glowing legion of ihe cane with those, where the ri gor of the north forbids vegetation through half the year. Their inland waters invite them to an riy familiarity with the marine cradles, r.i train them as in their primary nautical schools, and draw many of them on to meet all the changes of the inconstant oce.,n. The facilities of modern navigation, acquired bv habit and improved by all the relative arts, have established the most intimate connex, ion between us, the younger children of ci 1 polity, and all the people of the old VI world. Their woods and forests d-aw many of the United Americans to the active chase, armed often against beasts of prey, teach ing them atones die use of defensive arms, and to bear privations and fatigue, unknown to .the mass of people of the European states. The hardy exertions of agriculture often extend far beyond tile hoe, the plough and the harroty. The American reprover is frequently required to rear his own build, ings for man anti beast. He must conquer the forest and the morass—laborious though gainful preparations for productive cultiva tion. Jn many of the states, the judicious agricultures! is always an improver. The most antient families, and those of the first intelligence, fortune and standing, as well as foreign emigrants of the latest years, are engaged iu the settlement aud improvement of contiguousjor adjacent forests. Where lately every production of nature flourished in wilderness, there now the garden, the meadow, and the forest smile. This stea dy and extensiv* progress of ameliorating industry and skill, affects the mind, the bo dy, and the character of man. Useful and necessary rural improvements offer to all the Americans a prudent anti gainful em ployment for surplus income, producing of ten an habitual course of moralizing indus try and economy. Anxious parents, incoun try life, see before them their children's prospects of rising in the world, where in lant settlements, increasing with our honest labor, pervade the land. The existing ge neration have c li ved numerous countries and several of the states out of the howl ing of the wilderness- Thus are the Ame ricans under the favor of Heaven, the crea tors of their own dwellings, thrirown farms, their own cities, towns and villages, their own goodly country and all that is therein. COLUMlilANUS. From the Same. A Memoir on the subject of a Navigation Act, inclu ding the encouragement of the manufactory of boats ami sea vessels, and the protection of ma raies. File commencement, progress, magnitude and prospects oj the mercantile shipping of the the United States. A recurrence to the ancient writings, which relate to the colonial establishments in North America, will prove to the candid and judicious examiner, that the founders j of these provinces, of whatever nation, which now composes the United States, j took, for the tune, very enlarged and pro speettve views of political economy. In the course of that steady prugrtss to the present happy condition, which a here ficept Providence has dispensed to us, the fathers of our country snd§tt s attentive ob servers beyond the Atlantic, have constant ly agitated the interesting subject of the po 1 rota tue omh of this country to the me moi able «pocha of ,6. its political econo my was modified by the hand of a jealous, in erested and powerful brother. It was fo gotten, or rather, perhaps, amidst a cloud of passions, not perceived, that each of the American sections was, at strict constitu tional and public law, and in substantial justice, a genuine co-crd/nate state of a fe derate emptre —united only by means of one common executive government—the small as independent of the great, as the great of the great members of that mixt monarchical union . Untlet these circumstances, the people of this country constantly observed, consider eti and judged well, in matters relative to their political economy. Their complaints againtt the evtls, touching that object, im posed upon them by the elders of the fami iy were founded in tfnc wisdom, Us well as Is. •siantial justice. I he public necessities, in the revolution j ary war, entirely suspended the practical adherence to the right theory on this sub. jertj but there are many evidences cl a se rinus attention to that theory, among the public acts and disquisitions of those times, No sooner had peace removed the oc casion of this wise temporary suspension, than the legislators of the several states, the framers of all commercial laws at that lime, commenced measures for the permanent es tnblishmcnt of a system of political econo my. It is true that these laws were imper fect, and often faulty, from the conflicting efforts of agricultural, commercial and ma nufacturing, and n l eastern, middle, south ern, Atlantic and western economists; from resentments anil partialities in respect to fo reign powers; and, above all, from the exer. cise of duties concerning national and extra territorial objects, by worthy, but zealous representatives of the interests of towns and countries, or, in other words, for want ol powers in the general govertnent of that time. A memorable evidence of the convictions of some of ihe most aide, enlightened and affectionate fathers of our country, upon this subject, will be found in the salutary and auspicious proceedings of the legislature of Virginia, in their spring session of 1786, which produced the commercial convention at the city of Annapolis in 'he foil »wing au tumn, the federal convention of 178", and our present invaluable constitution. This precious instrument, which has not yet re ceived any amendment of its powers in re. lation to commerce, is predicated on the propriety, utility and necessity of a system of trade laws, founded on correct and fix ed principles. In digesting laws.for that branch of our po litical economy, which comprehends txter nal commerce and oav gatiott, the coasting trade and the fisheries, tile United States will find themselves instructed bv the expe rience of a quarter of a centurv, as a coun try in peace, during the last sixteen years of which they have been in a state of neutrali ty. Many, and precious, it is believed, are the lessons which our statesmen may derive from that extrac dinary time. It is ascertained that the construction and employment of sea vessels are general ly profitable occupations ; that they are nu cessary to agriculture ami defence, and be neficial, and indeed requisite, lo manufac tures. ll will be remembered, that those occtt pstions were commenced in the earl- s ages of our existence, grew with our prospur.tv, contributed largely to its increase, and have risen sometimes in a natural, steady and re gular manner, and sometimes with surpris ing ripidity, to a greater heighi than those of any other country, in proportion to our wealth and numbers, proving at once the fitness of the territories and products of tile Untied States, and the capacities of their citizens for ship building, fishing, trade and navigation. It is a truth which ought to be most ac curately appreciated, that a very large part of our recent benefits from commercr, have been produced by the wars that have ai isen out of tht French revolutions, of which the neutrality of our country has enabled us greatly to profit ; atul we ought carefully to remember, that the earliest French révolu lion having affected the ytars '88, and VJ, in the time of the meeting of the notables, and their first colonial disturbances, the whole of our commerce under the existing constitution of the United States, mutt be con j sidered as that cf a fortunate neutral whose \Jlekl of employment was at first n/lurtred, j and afterwards constantly extended by the increase of the number of the bell-"emits till at leu th it included all the civilized and commercial states, except ourselves. »I we compare tin- ilntm use present ton nage of our piivatc- ships, with the greatest exports of our own produce and manufac tutes, and if we consider the moderate quanttties r.f foreign commodities, which, in a w "°° of P««, "e ever hav* or are ever likeiv to be permitted to carry for oth er nauons, we ma, safely conclude, that our merchants and ship builders can provide for the transportation of all our meïchan dise, foreign and American, to transmarine markets. The same facts will further prove that, if we could have the monopoly o ? f our own trade, it would not employ die vessels we build and own. It ts, therefore too probable, that, on the return of peace, our present vast property in ships, worth per. haps, fifty millions of dollars, will languish tn our own hands. At least, the noble ma At least, the noble nulaciure of ships is like lo be arrested in a very inconvenient degree. It is prudent lo rememher that severe tri als to all. who were concerned in the con struction and employment of ships, which were ingeniously arid effectually created by the cnlurcemem of the old, and the forma t'uni of lir laws of navigation \|>y ih c Eu ropean states, in the six distressing years which preceded the adoption of the federal constitution, '1 hose serious times clearly prove to the anxious and enlightened friends of American trade, that our present tonnage will induce similar distresses, un. happilyproportioned to its vast increase, im« less the wisdom and goodness of a parental government shall save us from the evils which may come. An ambitious navy has become a favorite object thro'out Europe, and it is now every where perfectly undci. stood, that private ships are the cradles of the marine nursery. Ingenuity and rigor, even beyond those of former times, must be expected to distinguish the formation and execution of foreign navigation laws. The unfavorable effects of such obvious measures, on the builders and owners of American ships, will be sure. Seriously torwarned by past times, and by the clear prospect of those to come, the faithful citi zen of the United Slates turns with an af fectionate confidence towards his own . gov. crûment for measures of effectual and time ly provision against avoidable distress.— The mercantile shipping of the United States are the vehicle* to transport the pro duce of the land to foreign markets, and to import the supplies of the people and gov ernment. If our merchants and ship buil dets should be exposed to ruin by a bad system of political economy, the owners and cultivators of the American soil will surely and deeply suffer with them. If foreign governments would agree to the unhtrsal freedom of trude, this country would he' required, by prudence and by justice to the mass of its citizens, to make tile experiment of such a state of things. Our government, in that case, might say to the merchants, seamen and ship hniiders, the field of competition lies open bc fr> you. Rut the state of tilings is very diffe rent. Torcign nations are all now jealous ami intelligent rivals, and will become unfeeling nw nopolizcrs, if they can lull, deceive or coerce their improvident neighbors. If we consider the history of our own com merce and that ol ancient nations, if we duly ap preciate the utility ol navigation and trad» to the' prosperity ol agriculture and manufactures, and particularly if we reflect the commercial avt* dny which has distinguished the commencement of the nineteenth century, we shall not probably fail lo be convinced, that " a vise system of low* to support trail/■ and mercantile manufactures , di gesttu in the form of a navigation act," has real ly become absolutely necessary. It is respectfully suggested, that the most sa lutary measure, which can be adopted, will probably be the immediate commitment of this important subject for deliberate and profound in t estimation. Rut though it sv.ll be necessary to await, with respect, the result of such on ex amination, it may he useful, here, to display, oy a lew examples, the nature of the provisions, which existing evils and impending dangers stem to require. Ta hr c/a/tinurd. From the Samp. On thf impolicy of English and French Rutrictio So on trade. > There can be no doubt but that both Qrcat Britain and h ranee have acted with the utmost inpolicy in the restrictions imposed by them severally on commerce. Anation so ascend ant as Britain in naval strength, in manufac tures and commerce, would have best advanced her interests by removing every shackle to the irecdo it ol trade. Jn this way the greatest de mand won Id have been created lor lier goods and ships, which would, in all human probabi lity have been increased by the activity of our competition. Our habits ai well as ambition made us so decidedly an agricultural atton, that it may be assumed as certain, that we should for a century at least have principally employed.our resources in that occupation, but lor the trammels unjustly imposed upon fo reign nations ; i n consequence of which we should have raised a larger surplus of raw ma terials and consumed a larger portion of Brit ish manufactures. Let us dwell for a few mi nutes on this topic, and estimate the probable gam ol C». Britain by an adherence to such a policy. Jn the year 1790 there were imported into and consumed in the U. S. foreign com modities to the amount of sixteen millions ol dollars. In the . . . year * 8 °0 the amount rose to tlnrty-lour pultons; since this period the in crease has risen in an equal ratio. Front these data it might, perhaps, be safe to conclude that the quantity ot foreign goods consumed in the U. S. would double in every ten years, which would in twenty years produce a fourfold con sumption. As, however, onr consumption in a great measure depends on onr ability, and as *mr ability has been very much increased by the peculiar state of Europe, which during the last sixteen years has considerably augmented the demand for our raw materials,'we shall on 1), assume the duplication ol the consumption ol foreign goods in twenty years OITfte ag gregate of loieign goods consumed we know that more than a halt come from England and her dependencies. We shall in our estimate take them at only one half. . The following statement will present the prospective results lor a century. Consumption of British commodities in tlte. L .

But when, patient examination, they shall find that in on a the year 1900 our population will be equal to hundred millions, that the land in cultiva one tion will be at least four hundred millions, and the total consumption of the (American people exceed ten thousand millions of dollars in value,' and that, consequently the British corfimodities consumed here, large as they are represented, «rill not surpass a tu entieth part of the aggre gate consumption ; all astonisment will cease. Such, then, is the proud attitude in which the British government might have placed the British nat on by adopting and adhering to ajust and hberul policy as to us. Had she, by the fortune of war, have been deprived of all her colonies, and of the vast field which she might elsewhere have found for her enterprise, still, possessed of our good will and custom, she ■would have insured to heisrif the ingredients of a steady and rapid, progress in, wealth, numbers and power. By such a policy she would have become the permanent store-house of mankind ; she would have conciliated the regard of a na tion, which will indisputably a century hence he the most poweriul on the face of the globe ; and she would have been the constant pacificator of a troubled world. How different her career from that which she is now pursuing, and is too likely to pursue in future. Now, she is not only a party to every war in Europe, hut she is the author of many wars, •whirh, hut for her, would never occur. Now, the flagrant injustice with which shedespotiscs on the ocean has.cnlisted almost the whole world agahist her, and furnished the powerful pretext, if not the actual lever by which Napoleon sub verts empires at pleasure. Now, in short, she is generally looked upon as inimical to the opu lence and power of every maritime stale, many of which will, doubtless, seize the first favoura ble moments lor retaliation and vengeance. On the contrary, had she pursued the plain, honest, and enlightened policy we have pointed out, how different her present situation, and be> future prospects ! She would have been in the enjoyment of a profound peace, unmenaced by disturbance ; and, jnxteati of being the instiga tor, have been thé: beneficent mediator of the differences of surrounding and distant nations. Her justice on the ocean would have strengthen elher power on that element, by uniting al the minor powers to her, and by totally depriv ing the emperor of the French of his only plau sible argument for extending his conquests.— Viewed as tbi enlightened friend of the just opu lence and power of other states she would by her conduct most powerfully have inculcated the in disputable truth, that the permanent prosperity and true glory in one state, however ascendant in power or rich in native resources, are only pla ced on a durable foundation, by respecting the lights and interests of.others.

The intelligence brought by this arrival is high ly important. The grand expedition to the Scheldt has completely failed of success, and was about to return to England. The British army in Spain was taking measures for its safety, but apprehensions were entertained that it serious would not be able to effect its ctreat. Ischia and Procéda in the Bay of Najiles, are evacua ted by Sir Joh Stuart ; and John Bull may emphatically be said to be drawing in his horns. The expeditions to Spain and the Scheldt arc es timated at twelve millions of pounds sterling. No doubt is entertained now of a continental jieace, f urkcjr, it is supposed, is doomed to fall; and a conjoint effort of Prance and Russia is said to he meditating against India, Bona parte was expected in Paris on the 15th of Au gust, the anniversary of his birth day, from whence, it is said, he would proceed immedi ately for Sjiain, to assume the command of the Trench forces in that country. It was reported that the British government had acceded to a proposition from France and Austria, to stud an Ambassador to a Cong ress to be held for the purpose of negotiating a gene ral peace—and Lord St. Helens was said to be actually nominated for that purpose. Hie king of Prussia has lately paid six mil lions of frank's more of the arrears of the con tributions claimed by France ; and Bonaparte has levied the enormous sum of 196 , 240,000 franks oti the Austrian provinces. 1 hese are only the outline? of the most promi nent articles of intelligence.

Englis/Isi/stcm of Finance — Ehe British fund ed debt,' which at the commencement of the A nicrtcau war, did not exceed one hundred and forty millions of pounds sterli g, now amounts to the enormous sum of six hundred and sixty-six millions—upwards of toco thousand seven hundred millions of dollars, Of this immense sum it has been curiously calculated, that if it were laid duwn tn a direct line ot guineas, close to each ndicr, it would extend upwards of twelve thou sand miles ! ! And by changing it iuto shillings, and averaging it in a similar manner, it would be sufficiently long to reach eleven times round '"Ceaiili, S!lt j woulvi require two hundred and ten thousand h ' it, all, orseS to eh I horse» tuousand • weigh-. if it lit t he managers oi these wWgh/t, treasures as,. , that 1 " a national debt is a nation il Idessinm, it will follow that the British nation tire supremely blest indeed ; and their government may with truth oc called a • a mc.,t stupendous fabric of human wisdom. ' But however obvious the truth of these assert. ms may appear to royal expansive minds, it will be difficult to render them euffici eut plain to the understanding of simple Ameri can fanners and mechanics, who still entertain the most inveterate prejudices in favor-of republi can simplicity and economy, and the nld-fasbion ec! rule of justice—notwithstanding the incessant and disinterested labours of the servants and ad vocates of this most pet feet of all governments to enlighten their minds. They are in fact so in corrigibly ignorant of the blessings that flow from royalty, and so peiverseiy prejudiced in iavor 0 ( their own simple form of government, that those who are labouring to rescue them lrom the drudgery of governing themselves 1 arc treated with tilauklcssness and suspicion, Whe told of the superior wisdom of the British for m ol government, and the blessings of a national debt, the mind of every Amenc'm of plain com mon understanding is led to contrast th e econo my of the two nations. By turning his atten tion to the economy of his own government, h discovers that the national debt, width w principally contracted du g our struggle rm lor independence, has, in the sjmcc of endu years. been lessened upwards of thirty millions of dol lars. Ily adverting to the history of rhe British system of finance, he finds that their national debts contracted to carry on War, foupded 011 am bition and injustice, has, during the same peri od, increased at the average of upwards of ninc tv millions of dollars per annum. The next en quiry that common sense and common honesty would naturally make, would be—how is this enormous debt to be paid 1 The advocates for the system would tell us that it is never to be paid, which makes it a public blessing : the pub lic creditors do not cxjiect the principal—they will be satisfied with tile punctual payment of the interest. But how arc the exprimes of •• ov eminent to be supported and the interests of tlv. national debt tobe regularly paid, which, at the rate of five per cent amounts to the enormous • hundred and fifty millions of dollars sum of annually—a sum at least one-third greater than the wnolc amount of gold and silver com in the nation? To pay this sum of one hundred and fi:ty millions ot doll.us annually, the government must have an artificial capital ot at least four hundred millions ot dollars. This artificial capi tal is (rented by the emission of back notes, is. sued on the credit of the government, and made payable in specie on demand ; and from the eu dent inability of the government to pay a fourth part of the interest of .ts national debt in specie, it follows that it has long been in a state of in solvency, and that the moment the suspicion oi the people is awakened the nation will become bankrujit. Ho lutig this awful crisis is likely to be averted by the economical administration of the government time alone must determine ; hut the following article, from the Rich non;: Enquiier, will shew that an cnqun v is now on foot whic h is likely to prove more interesting to the people of England than to the ministry ; BRITISH EXPENDITURES.

The one lately adopted for selecting of she riff, has me» with such universal applause, a mong the enlightened part of t.itr citizens, a< to induce a majority of them to believe, that it is the only mode that cau be pu'sucd in select ing members of the legislatuie and levy-court— to preserve union in the party. The more of delegation, since its first introduction, has ne vet failed to p-oduc- turmoil among our repub lican friends ; and why should we continue to system that has nearly, already, made oursue our country the scorn of opposition ? Must we go on to continue a measure so deleterious ? Must We continue a system that is strikii at the very foundation of our patty ?

Have you since the delegation system has been in iorce, had as good a representation as heit the party convened at some suitable time \v picvious to me election and loaned the ticket ? Did there not then exist more harmony in the party than at present ? These are questions that rest with yourselves to determine. For my own part 1 feel a vene ration for Red-Lion meetings. 1 believe it is the best way we can effect a concentration of our force. But, what friend of republicanism could wish to see a measuie continue, that is inhering corruption, and lessening the strength of tin- party in every hundred in the county : The present elect on has given us a few in stances, to our sorrow, of the dolefm effects of this destructive system. We may be asked, why are not the hundieds more attentive tod.e selection ol proper delegates ? We can a 3 rea day answtr that wtiere there has been attention pa.d, delegates have went forward instiucted by the candidate liiinselt to vote in his favour, contrary to the intentions of a majority ot the hundred ; and in many instances nave not at- j tended-by which means the hundred has been deprived ol her representation. Are these not striking instances of the im propriety of the mode, though they are not all the inconveniences that attend it ? Suppose one of the nomination declines serving—to be con sistent, you ought to call all the dele > lo gether, and elect another ; or else you infringe upon your resolutions, as in the iate case in Nevv-Castle hundred—though the hundred se lected. To have prevented trouble, and to have given every hundred in the county its due weight, how much beiter would it have been to have selected ail in the same manner in the first instance. Hundred selections would cute the present animosities existing among us. 1 'hey would add streligtn to the party by giving us an abler representation, l'he people wouid soon leel their own importance. They wouiu be less apt 10 deceive themselves, by voting in a d.iect manner—in propria persona—than il they v<. ted for delegates. 'Tis well known they are, m niasse, less liable to abuse a blessing than an 111 - diviuual. lhey would feel an emulation, which would naturally bring foith iioin the hundreds tue ablest and best men. It wouid be attended with such ease and convenience to the hundreds, that every man would be alive to bis interest. As for being unconstitutional is out of the question, i ne people in the county, on the contrary, are invested with power to lake the best methods of making the selections lrom the same- ' The county s to send three senator, and se ven representatives.

Citizens of Ncw-Castle county, why will you be inactive to effect a measure so e«sential to vqur liberties? Was there ever a time that required more union than the present ? Ne at all times, under a republican form of gov union is necessary lor its safety. It eminent, must be acknowledged, it is not always in the power of a state, even where the people are the most virtuous, to check at once an evil : But w here it is so griev s as lim present, it behoves t wy citizen to step forward, to op pose the growing monster.

M AT E R N AL A FF ECTION. A sailor ol Martinique married a young wfttnan, as virtuous as she was beautiful—and she, having expended all the little money her husband hail left her before he embarked, had re course to a wealthy citizen, to whose protection she had betn confided. The citizen,inflamed with the charms of the fair borrower) demanded, as the price of his services, the surrender of her virtue. Relying on the hope of her husband's return, and shuddering ) with indignation at the proposal.the insulted woman refused without hes nation. The sailor did not a-rive ; and in a few days, all the recources of this unhappy wife were exhausted ; want too clearly made her sensible ol her situation—she was a mother ! and dreading to behold one infant perish at that breast which had nour ished it, and the other, whose matur erage demanded bread, expire of hun ger before her- she • sought the tyrant again in hopes of soltening him. Butpravers and tears could obtain nothing from the barbarian—she was forced to cap. itulate—and vanquished by necessity, she permitted him to come to supper with her. After a meal which was spiritless, the citizen pressed her to fulfill her promise.—the poor woman took him to the cradle where her child was sleeping—-and then prosing ! it to her bosom, her eyes full often::., she said to it—"Drink,mv dear babe ! drink freely ; thou vet receivest the milk of a virtuous woman, whom ne cessity alone stabs to the heart. To morrow', for alas ! I cannot wean thee to-morrow, thou wilt drink the milk, of an unhappy'' her tears finished the sentante. The citizen beheld—and was moved at the sight. Throwing his purse at her feet he ex claimed—"It is not possible to resist so much virtue !" THE TWO JEWS. Two old Jews who go about Lon don, dealing in old cloathes. passing by a gentleman's stable, were so laci nated by a couple of jackets belong, ing to two postilions, that they could resist the temptation of adding not them to their stock in trade. -While they were secreting their prize, the owners returned from a public house where they had been drinking a pot of porter, and saw the whole transac lion. They rushed out, seized the Israelites, locked them up in the sta ble, and went in quest of certain things which promised better sport than a prosecution. They returned, tied the two Jtws face to face, and matted together their two beards, smetred with warm shoemakers wax. As soon as the wax was cold, and a sufficient number of spectators had gathered together to view this frater nal Jewish hug, the postilions at in tervals applied a few pinches of snuff, which caused such a concussion of noses, and such a sneezing and splut tering in each other's faces, that while it inflicted the severest punishment on the thieves: the spectators were highly pleased with this specimen! of their distributive justice. MASONIC. At the late assizes for the county of I yrone, held at Omagh,an action was brought by Alexander Selon, Esq. a baristcr at law, against a Mr. Wil. liam F. Graham, of Omagh, and which was tried before Judge Dulvv, and a special jury.—The declaration alledged, that the plaintiff brought his action against the defendant for defamation, and the publication of three several libels—the first a resolu tion, dated, 2d April 1807, of the grand lodge of free masonry in Ire land, stating that Alexander Seton, had been expelled the grand lodge and masonry in general •• the second cau tioning the brethren against receiv ing or sanctioning certificates signed A. Seton, dated since the first of May 1806, as he had not held any office under the grand lodge since that pe nod—atu! the third being the résolu lions of the graft'd lodge of England, dated London, Sept, 2, 1807, stating that the grand Lodge of England would not on any account receive or acknowledge any certificate issued by one under the hand of said Al exander Seton, dated any time subse quent to the 5th of June, 1806, nor should any person by virtue of such ) certificate be thereby received into any lodge under the grand lodge of England The plaintiff laid his dam ages at 2 0001 ; and the défendent pleaded the general issue. The case was stated, on the part of the plaintiff, by counsel, Roleston. who at great length, expatiated on the injury done to tlie character and properly of the plaintiff by thus stating to the public his expulsion from so ancient and re spectable a society, and the natural ignominy and disgrace that would a: inch to the character, if the jury did not in damages prove to the coun try, and to the society, the falsehood of such a charge, and which only could be done by their verdict. The learned council also statt :!, that bv this action the right of the plantiff would be proved to the situation of f he deputy grand secretaryship to the ! {»-Co and thereby ■ f In ittnd, i '.cmbcts of the order tr,strut: • v.hcrc x Hit to apply for such masonic .i>. ills as they had oeca nriant having assum stun lot, . u: tic ed upon h-.iisMf the situation, and thereby the fees that were il l : attached to t office, and also in that right publi :V:>v • circulating tin libel'» present action on Witten t.. was founded. The plaintiff then proved the publica; ion and circula tion of the «Hedged libels, and aficr the examination of several witnesses, closed his case. 'I he learned judge then intimated that the plaintiffshonkl be non-suited —and the plaintiff having stan d hi, determitation to appear, and n : mb mit but leave the question • •«. ; in of his country, the defendeur' • j 11 sel, declared that out of respeot to the court, they would not state any case, nor call any evidence. The Judge, after a most able and eloquent charge, and having gone imo every minutiae, of the evidence, directed the jury to find for the de fendant. The jury retired, and nf. ter some considerstion, brought in a verdict for the defendant with 61. costs thereby allowing the right of the grand lodge, and justness and propriety of publishing die expulsion of its members, and clearly t iscer taining the defendant to be its pro per officer.

Dll. DODDRIDGE'S RISE AND PROGRESS Of Religion in the Soul. Tl/TR. ROBERT PORTER, of this town, i has issued proposals for publishing the above excellent Book, by subscription, on good paper, and with a plain common sized type, at the very low price of fifty cents. Perhaps, next to the Bible, this is the best book extant for private and family use....No one is better calculated to awaken, convince and convert sinners, and to conduct them in tile straight and narrow path to Heaven ; as doubt less the experience of many can witness...No one is more highly esteemed by pious people of all denominations, as is abundantly evident from the uumeious editions it has passed through both in this country and Europe. As the proposed price is only half the sum ii ist now selling for in most of our Book-stores, it will be seen, that neither the Printer, nor any* persons who promote the woik, have any ob ject in view, but the good of souls, ami the. glo ry of God. it is presumed that every one who wishes tor the spiritual rise and progress of religion In his soul, or his family, will subscribe, and own that all friends of religion will encourage the work. Recommendation by New-Castle Presbytery. Whereas ROBERT PORTER, has issued proposals for printing Di. Doddridge's tii«e a. in Progress of Religion in the Soul, at a very low price. Resolved, That the Presbytery do recommend 'so the people under their care, to subscribe fi r aril excellent Book.

The subject of this suggestion is conceived to be of prima ry importance. The immediate exclusion of cotton uarn from all countries, and the gradual exclu sion of low priced cotton manufactures r . . , . manuiactures, from countries, which do not consume our cotton wool, would occasion the small freight which those goods afford us, tobe exchanged for the freight on our own coc ton, exported to make such goods abroad, and the freight of the goods, so manufactur ed,back to this country. 1 he increased con sumption of our own cotton would benefit agricultre, as well This oc as commerce. of curs to a great extent in the East India trade.

From the Same. On the int-olicj/ of JZngli\h i tr. I FrenchRestrictions on trade. ContinucJ. The French government has pursued an equally unwise policy with regard to com. In her fruitless attempts to rcla. merce. Hate an her enemy, she has still more deep, ly wounded herself. U is astonishing that a government so enlightened in other res. pects should have betrayed so flagrant an, ignorance on this r—int. Such conduct is among thejmosi striking proofs of the blind ness with which ungovernable passion pur sues its ijiigilirnate ends. It is, if possible, still more surprising that the çyedof the French government have not been opened by experience. Let us hope that the day of dispassionate reflection will soon arrive, anti that Napofeon will at length discern that the solid interest of his nation will be best advanced by a removal of every restric tion on neutral trade, and that this will lie the most terrible as well as honorable reta liation he can retort upon his enemy. The French government in adopting the ronviction that it would lie able (o seal the poris nf the continent against the intro, duciion of British commodities, surrender ed itself to a fatal error. It ascribed to phyc sical force a power which it doe* not and cannot possess. It fancied that it could carry into effect an object, repugnant to the habits and feelings of ages, by an armed force, only efficient by concentration, arid even then subject 1 o the influence ot a con stant corruption. By a partial enforcement of it* measures, it presented the most pow erful temptations to fraud by its rich reward in every instance where it was successful. It scattered far and- wide tbe seeds of dis cord by producing the impression that the rxisring deprivations were the,offspring of French measures, and not of thpse of Eng land. Let u* reverse the picture and content plate the effects of an opposite policy. Let us suppose that France had oppos ed to every British reliction on trade a new freedom or privilege ; or, in other words, that she had thrown open all her porta to the whole world, even to England herself,- and had induced alt the nations of the continent to imitate her- exsStnple. She would, at once, have had the Voice of all uations on her side ; and they would have united under such banners without the shadow of coercion. Their people would have supported them heart in hand, ascrib ing the deprivations they suffered to the English government, agaio&t which they would have cordially united. She would have emboldened neutral com merce to the most strenuous efforts to dis pose ofher produce and supply her wants, by diminishing the risks attending it and increasing its rewartfs. She would have lost the profits of tra.de (a loss under any aspect of affairs inevita ble) but she would have balanced the gains of her enemy by those of neutrals, and have completely succeeded in preventing a mo nopoly. She would have retained several of her colonies by the means for their defence which she would have been enabled to gatlv cr from their prosperity, and their conse quent satisfaction with their parent coun try. But it may be said this is all idle, and that just as these remarks might have been years since, they are inapplicable ta some the present state of things. Were this the fact we should not have offered them They are substantially such ought still tu guide the Court of St. as Cloud. It is true that France has lost her marine and those of her colonies, and is shorn of the honors of commerce, and that most of her allies are reduced to the same condition. It is no less true that Engiatid has gained a great part of what they have lost. How then is France and her associates retrieve what they have lost, or to gain to an equivalent for it ? We answer, by an eternal adieu to the system of commercial restriction in all its features. 1 hi* will still have the political effect of uniting all the nations ol Europe into an in dissoluble chhift of Interest against the des potism of England on the ocean. It will likewise knit them together into a confede racy for ihe supply of their respective wants among themselves. It will remove all necessity for coercion. The enterprise of their subjects will be left tree to pursue its own career. They will be contented tinder their governments, and so iar.-a3-natural means permit, they wify **

That these efiects would lie insured there can be little doubt from the following cofiside , rations. The ptincipal. value of the commerce of Great Britain flows from the sale of Iter manu factures. For the fabrication of these she wou'd not be,, under the circumstances sug gested. better qualified than 'France, and other portions ofthe continent, in these countries it ■is well understood that the price of labor is much lower than itv England, arising from their comparatively low value of provisions and freedom from taxes. It maybe added, that in a comuatt population they have likewise, in many lä ge cbstrxts, an advantage over En gland. If to all this it be added that they are never exposed to u scarcity of food, while En gland is periodically visited by it, we shall be satisfied that they only want a supply of raw materials at moderate prices,- and a market for the sale of the goods manufactured from them, soon to become rivals in this respect with En gland. The entire abolition of all restrictions Will afford them raw niatiyfials in abundance at prices very little above those paid for them ' in England, and will enable them, from the low price of labor, cheapness of provisions, and saving of freights, to undersell, at least, in their own markets, the British manufacturer. Thus will they, by these means, at once e,tah fish the foundations of their own prosperity, and undermine those of England by cutting off that portion of hcr manufactures needed for their consumption ; nations will become less dependant on one another; the aggregate commerce of the world will sustain a vast di minution : and England, with an abridged i market for the sale of her manufactures, and reduced profits of trade, will be compelled, consulting her true interests and glory, to bring down her immense marine, which will thence forth Cease to be the scourge of the civilised ■World. She will realise the adage, that the commerce which requires fighting lor. is not Worth possessing. The world has a right to expect this wise policy from Napoleon, whenever reposing from his conquests, he shall for himself dis passionately investigate the subject. 5 lDc alette. Wilmington , October 18 , 180 'J. Foreign news .—No official advices had reach crl London the last of August of a peace having been concluded between France and Austria; but such an event was confidently calculated on lty persons of intelligence. The latest accounts from Vienna state that a Congress was to be held at Ruab, [whither Bonaparte was about to trans fer his head quarters] for tiie purpose of negdei atiog peace; that the prince Lichtenstein, the late ambassador at Paris, and secretary of state, Hoppe, were to he the negotiators on the part ■of Austritt— and on the pint of E ranee, the duke of Friuli, marshal Duroc, and-Champagny. The-garrison of Flushing had arrived in Eng land ; and the grand' expedition to Holland was about to return.

Our expedition to the Scheldt returns to England—unsuccessful. Om gal I'.nt army in the Peninsula indignantly retires before superior numbers; and Ischia and Pro cida, in the Bay of Naples, are evacuate 1 by Sir John Si Hurt. Thus have faded all our expeditions ; and the efforts (we blush m use - he term) of En gland lime had no more influence on tire- con test in Germany, than the Piotest and excom munication of tile ci-dt i ant Pope, now reduced to ids pastoral and pristine simplicity of charac ter, a mere Bishop ! Ol those who weakly a vert their eyes from that on which they dread to look, who prefer the fabrications, fallacies, the delusions, the contradictions) the absurd - ties of the Nabob s Mornihg Post, the Times, the Courier, and the whole tr be of hirelings we impiore their attention to. the real state t-., Which England is at last reduced. Observa tions', applicable to the affairs' of common life, are no less so to those of nations, and we all know, that when an individual refuses ro ex amine his real situation, destruction invariably follows. England, in extent of surface, and iu population inferior, butin point of actual pow er, possessing as she doe-», the ocean, certainly superior to even the coiorsal power of France .—after having goaded that kingdom to war, lias absolutely failed in every effort to restrain her power, and it is no longer possible to doubt that Napoleon now reigns paramount over the entire Continent of Europe. Peace with Aus tria can no longer be doubtful. In the ptoepecr of this event .we certainly feel satisfaction, from our firm conviction that the renewal of hostilities would have led, and that most speedily to the extinction of the Austrian Monarchy. W hat ever may be the delusive expectations of the im possibility of restraining commerce, the crisis is approaching with accelerated velocity in which the continent of Europe, as to our commerce, will be hermetically scaled. Then, and not till then, will the people of England be taught) that Widely extended commerce cannot Confer too nation. The contest permanent power on any in which England is now struggling,, is specifi cally a war for commerce. Do we approach the object for which we diew the sword ( is that object) in tiie belief of any man of ordinal ry under Standing, now altniiUUe by tbe further efforts of England ? We have persevered until Napoleon has surionnded himself, as.Mr. She ridan most truly observed, with thrones, fie haa Monarch» for in's centinels. They are fixed, immoveably fixed ; and Louis on ihg Scheldt, Joachim in Naples, anil Joseph in Spain, will, in spite of all our efforts reign wheie Napoleon has placed thelii.—England must at last return to tout peace which she wantonly broke-—aim there call be no possible colfscquenccs resulting hieb may not bô anticipated by 4 from peace, w •Cöritinnunce of war/' \ Napplcén wl'l acquire slops, cômm>^dé, ahd j colonies ; and suppose he docs, is no» tilt world wide enough for us all ?

In morning and devious rambles, through lonely pasture, or gloomy wood, far from the jocund chorus of musick's songs, I met a meagre, and moping hypocondriac. His temples do nut throb, but they are bound not with the chaplets of spring, but with a white hankerchief, the flag of head ach, and of spleen. The day is ge mal, for it is one of the mildest in May—but doubled and trebled stock ings on his legs, thick vests closely buttoned over his bosom, and a pon deious great coat, envelloping the man attest the nature and magnitude of ail his fears. He shivers at a ze pliyr impregnated with flowers, and when all nature is warm, he dreads taking cold. What disease, and what stubborn symptons which acknow ledge no catfse ! I have a right to say '-no cause," for well I know the fate and fortunes of this splenetic. The first is happy, and the other am ple. Blest with birth, with talents, with favour, have not I a priviledge to enquire of him, with more than common curiosity, •what aileth thee ? why is thy countenance cast down ? why is thy brilliant spirit troub led ? Cl What aileth thee ? O selfish bach elor ! Why still immerse thyself in the cold prison of celibacy ? Why shun the conversation and the charms of the fair ? why not abandon un humdrum associate, the military pipe, and the lonely chimney corner, and mingle, like thy fellows, in the society of ths fair sex ? Does thy gloomy humour comport with pleasure, com port with interest ? No, thy joy is sullen, and thy fortune neglected. AHsc then, and go out, and enquire fearlessly ofsome fair Rebecca of the land, wilt thou go with me ? and, be assured, if like Job of old, thou art a patient, kind, and perseverent lover, her frank answer will be, like that of her ancient namesake, I will go. 2Ugt)i Articles A person by the name of Bull chanced to call on an acquaintance bv the name of Hide : " Well what has become of your horns, Mr, ■Bull said the latter, who affected to be a wit : " You know they al ways go with the Hide'' replied he to the satisfaction of all present.

The. NEW WORLD. No. 111. An enquiry into-the NatxonaI Charac PeoFU or the United TEH or THE Stai'es or America. We have seen that the illustrious discoverers T>f America were enterprizing natives of dis tinguished Italy —of Genoa, of Tuscany and of Venice. The sentiments on the northern section of this continent, which were within the limits of Cur present dominions, or may be considered as near enough tb have influenced our charac ter, were made under the auspices of various European powers, and were originally compo-. «ed of their citizens and subject-, in the course of our growth through infancy and youth to our present manhood, migration to America has takeh'a much'wider range. We have seen, xve'have felt the influence of the minds, the hcUrts, thé maimers, and the habits ef man ftom every civilized society, and every church. Let tls'calmly'revise <he facts, which relate Jo our settlements, and to our constant accessions ol people front abroad ! The establishment of stations for settlement and commerce was commenced by the French in the provinces of Canada and Acadig or Nova Scolja in 1 bOS "and 1611. The discovery of Louisiana in 1541, was folloxved at later peri ods by considerable F retich migrations. 'These two colonial establishments of I-'ranee became incorporated with the American states of our late empire by the treaty of Paris in 17f>3. Ma ny oClhe A cad' ans were transferred by England ihm our provinces. At the peace of 1788, Canadians came into our country as permentel citizens, and Americans passed over sett nato ih'tlie two Canadas. The French revocation of their edict of Nantes had scattered the follow ers of Calvin , under the name of Hugunots over the face of our country. The names ' of Jay, Boudinot ami Laureos, clearly descended from that stock will be found on the short list of our Presidents of Congress in the first ten years ofour-revolutionary history. The names of Jay, Gailiard, Bovdoin, de Lancey'and ethers, are on the list of the governors in the firnes of the provinces and of the common wealths. They appear olten as members of our legislatures, and as ministers and officers *■ vinous rcligioas societies and guardians of our seminaries of learning in many of the states. As th French have always rejected the preference of the eldest son in the disposi tion of intestate property, as these F'rench sought this country to preserve the rights of crin sc'cncr. as they introduced a number of valua ble books, and their modes of business, educa tion and worship,-it cannot be supposed that the. have not contributed to form the actual cl.it' ar t r of the existing American people. In tin i •-■•••riiou of all th'tigs, which interfere with th»- rights of conscience, in the rejection of the Fig«-» <>f primogeniture, and in the rejection commerce in the human species, the de o - nt:! of the French in united America SC to'' 'n.'.r.'u it«<] the gcncial characteristics of out U'fnn. ' Swedish an ! Danish blended settlements w ■•-..! our present dominions of ere early and coiisi'letvble for that time. They purchased ndians all the country, bn botn sides of oft of the Delaware, calling it the New Suede.land S '.7 ■iun. and made settlcmcriis on both sho that river and of its extensive bay. They 01 sca'«t;cd themselves on tile various' streams ed wfitcli the Delaware receives. The states of New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Delaware, con . tain a number of Swedish churches, with mill isters derived from that of episcopacy, at this <!->•• They arc very"similar to the other mem bers ol the Lutheran church i» these states. The ground plat of the city anJ Iibertiesof Phi ladelphta were compromised) in part,-with the Swedish settlers by William Penn. The an •• cient town of Nevr-Castle on Delaware was founded by the Swedes more than fifty years of Hen "7 lva " la ' a ' , ' t l was th«n s: quevn of Sweden. The settlements ofthat na tu n on the waters of the Delaware, at the time that the Dutch acquired them, were greater than tiny other colony of the Swedish nation. Except indeed the purchased island of Saint Bartholomew, it is not remembered that they have had any other permanent colonial estab lishment. The civil law which prevailed in Sweden and the principles of which were high ly influential in Denmark, did not favor the idea of au y right from primogeniture, the pre , vailing spirit of the American law of descents. Having no sugar colwiics at the time of their " settlements adjacent to the Delaware, the Swedes and Danes had little information or practice in the slave trade, and have contribu ted probably to facilitate the early and known opposition lo that trade, which arose in ihe middle states. 'Th ; enterprize, the wealth, the freedom, the b;iety and the religion of the Dutch ren der their e ,'v and prosperous settlements in tins part ot America particularly worthy of consideration 1 heir forts and marts extended from the .western bank ol Connecticut river, and tlie city of Albany to Hoar kiln or Lewis town, iivar the southern cape of De aware bay. I hr y had acquired the town of New-Cnstle or Stockholm, from the ■\ Swedes, and called .h New Amsterdam. 1 hejr settlers had extended w York, Connecticut, east New Jersey, IT • aw Jersey, Delaware, the south western west ewajej cfPtamsjWiaU, slid the aasMu shore' of Maryland, wher, their »hole possessions-in middle states, called the New Netherlands, our conquered by Great Britain in 171)4, and were 11 ... ! Were divided under charters to the American provinces of Connecticut, New-York, New Jcrsey,' Pennsylvania and the lower-territory' of York and Penn, known at present as the De laware state. The influence of the Dutch, af ter this conquest, continued to be such that there were seven governors of New-York of that s'oek, and one of N«?w-Jersey. There are at this time not less than eighty Dutch Calvanis tic churches in the Doited Slates. They are as zealous friends of religious liberty as the rest of the Americans, and the New-York and New-Jcrse.y legislatures in which they are most numerous, corrected the English law of de scents, as soon as the separation from Great Britain enabled them to give to the laws the proper spirit of our nation. The German people, having little concern in navigation, there has not been, at any time, a commencement of a separate German colony within Our present dominions. But great num bers of the natives of the protestant and ca tholia states of that immense confederated em pire have migrated hither in search of liberty oj conscience, and establishment in life. \Y illiam rly visit to the continent of Penn made eu Europe, with a view to inform the German people of his new and liberal cstablisment. The agitations of Europe in consequence of the struggles of the followers of John Hus ,, Lu ther, Calvin, Menno and other of less note in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, and of the counter exertions of the church of Rome and its powerful supporters, rendered even the wilds of America more lovely than the most cultivated scenes of persecuting Europe. In regatd to the prospects of a comfortable estab lishment, fair accounts of this country seemed to render it a second land of nromisc. The vast number of German emigrants which have re sorted to our shores in a term of more than one hundred and twenty years, has exhibited the persons, the language, the habits, the churches, and some of the spirit of the laws of that great and ancient empire. It is not ascertained xvhe ther the wise and excellent founder of Penn sylvania derived from his own wisdom and vir tue his celebrated modification of the law ot descents, or whether his respect for the law of Moses or bis visit to Germany, where be found the great opposition between the English la'tv and the Justinian system in that respect, occasioned him to adopt the idea. Certain it is that in this respect, as well as in their pur suit of religious liberty, the migrators from Germany must have attached themselves to these two objects, which are so conspicuous and influential in our national character. r»e Germans, like the Swedes, had no participation in sugar colonies, were consequently fiee from interest and practice in the slave trade, and were ready to co-operate in its decided arresta tion. From this stock, we have had an illus trious President of our Philosophical Society, eminent professors in tha medical department or one of our Universities, ministers of nearly two hundred churches of the Lutherans, Cal vinists, Raman C'holies, Mennonists, Mora vians, Ttinkers, and soin» other religious so cieties. A governor and a vice-president of a state, many generals of the militia, speakers of the-national and state legislatures, and ot her members have also been drawn from the natives of Germany or their numerous descendants. of The theology, the language, the arts, the "manufactures and the typography of the Ger mans are very conspicuous and widely extend ed in the United States of America.

VVc condemn the Algerines and Tripo litans as pirates, but if this doctrine is cor rect, could they not plead necessity as an excuse for their depredatory conduct, as well as the English ? Mis Algerine Excel lency might say, that from the depredations of his enemies, his funds were greatly redu ced, and he was therefore compelled to seize our property to supply himself. If the state of Tunis should be threatened bv its foes, the Tunesiaus might declare, while pouring there broadsides into the American ships, that our • convenience must yitkl to their right to exist. •> What say the merchants lo this doctrine?

Is it cousooent to their idea»; of justice, that when they- send out a vessel, the British, or anv other nation, have a right to take pos session of her for their own use, and that if she resist, they have a right to fire upon and destroy her ?

The whig* rejoic ed at the American success—the tories at British success. The whig* ruled the na t'tofi, anti the tories hated them fur it. Bri tain called the lories her friends, and the the whigs her enemies. , AVherein does there exist a difference be tween the parties' of the revolution and those of the- pres'ent day ? If none, it is fair to resume the former' epithets—they better, understood, ahd admit «f no are changes : wherbas a faction, as really tories as the enemies of the revolution, by annu ally changing their title from Federalist to Federal Republican,., then American Re publican, then British Repub! '.an, Sic, de ceive many honest men. The tories now"pretend, first—that op position to govetnmont does not constitute a tory in the revolutionary sense : -second ly, if it do.es, that the now whigs were tories during the Adams administration. But here again they intend to deceive—Oppo sition in favor of cur czvh country does not make a tory ; but opposition to our own go vernment in favor of a- foreign government, dors. The whig opposition began with the 'British treaty, because by that treaty our 'Fights and interest where, sacrificed to a fa Ireign nation—Eogland. This same sys tem of. sacrificing rights, of conniving Bt impressment, at search, at Rapture, at even giving up a man, (who said he was a citi Zen) without- niai, to execution, [Robin* ] and every other outrage, was. persevered iu nt the expense of every American and Re publican feeling I«) the end of the chapter. ' Hence, therefore, thé whig opposition iras consistent With whig'principles. ' To bolster their claims, the tories ex claim that their opposition arises from a partiality manifested bv the government a , )gainst England. But let them show such • G partiality as that article of the Briiisli trea t... ty which authorised British cruisers to cap ture American vessels bound to France with our own .grain, and take them into port, paying freight, commissions and cer tain pér çentage, in order to starve France, , then truly republican 1 England is monar chical and inimical, yet should the Ameri can government, in order to starve her, a gree by treaty with France, as Jay did with England,, the cry. of partiality would be well founded. Such then is tory consisten cy. : , . But it will be said the whigs gave opposition in favor of France during the Adams ad ministration.' This is not admitted, except where the measure was for.aiding Britain to destroy republican France,, as in the Jay treaty. It will, also, be said, the whigs now rejoice at French success, when destroying independent nations. But it still proceeds \ from love to our own country and govern ment ; for as it is England which has stir fed up every one of these nations to fight her battles against France, and for every .success of England she inflicts a.rtew stripe of punishment on us, ' we' rejoice only in Svhat saves us fro pa injury. Yes, says a to ty, it is the fleet of Britain which must save you from the tyranny of France. Her s'av tngi'L indeed the saving of the wolf to the sheep—she keeps'off France that she may plunder us herself. Why not treat us with decency if she means us a good Î \V kucitv, however, that France fights for the Ijberty of the seas at present, and England to tyran ize over them. Let-England agree to the liberty of the sens, and if France don't we'will join her against France,,, We know also this pretended, fear of France is hypo ?enne#! and deception». \Ve ,k ; ptv ;the«e Sutton, October fG, 1$09.

THE SlVlSP EMIGRANT. Farewell, Farewell iny native land, \ long farewell to life and thee ! On thy last rock I glittering stand, Thy last rude rock, how dear to me 1 Once more I view thy vailles fair. But dimly view, with tearful eye ; Once more I breathe thy healthful air, But breathe it in how deep a sigh ! Ye valfs with downy verdure spread, Ye groves that drink the sparkling stream, As bursting from the mountain's head j Its foaming waves in silver gleam. Te lakes that catch the golden beam That Hoods with fire yon peak of snow, A* evening vapours b!uly stream, And stilly roll thy voUmes slow Scenes, on this bursting heart impress'd By every thrill,of joy, of woe j The bliss of childhood's vacant breast, Or warmer youth's impassn i'd glow ; The 'ears by filial dutv shed Upon the low, the peaceful tomb, Where sleep, to blest, the revereHd dead, Unconscious of their country's doom. Say ! can Hevceiia's patriot child, A wretched exile, bear to roam, N»r sink upon the lonely wild, Nor die to leave his native home ? îïis native home !—no more has he— He scorns in servile yoke to bow, longer free, He scorns the land Alas—he has no country now ! Ye snow-clad Alps, t hose mighty mour.d. Croat nature's adamantine wall. In vain oppos'd your awful bound To check the prone descending Gau! : What hunter sow, with darting leap?, Shall chase the Ibex, o'er your rocks, Who clothes with vines your craggy steeps, Who guards from wolves your rambling flocks ! Will le now the free-born sons of soil Lie sunk amid the slaughtered bravé, To freedom true the stubborn so I Shall pine and starve the puny slave. Spoilers, who pour'd your ravening hands To gorge on Lntinm's fertile plains, And f.l d your bohl rapacious hands, From Legal domes, and sculptured fanes, What seek ye here ' Our niggard earth, 'prured trophies owns j gold - nor Nt Our wealth was peace and guiltless mirth, Our trophies are our tyrant's bones. Burrs- not mi heart, as dim' y swell Moral's proud Ç-! artes on my view t Heroic scenes, a long farevre'l, I ttv from m .d res and from you. Thru vanquish»? \ lam!, once proud and free, Where firs'- h s ßeeiing breath I drew, This ficait must ever beat for thee. In absence near—In misery true. flEWscellanv. AG A i N ST DRUNKEN N ESS. If by an awful visitation of Divine Piovidence there were spreading over all parts of this country, a foul and loathsome leprosy, which poison ed and disfigured the bodies of its victims, and affected their minds with madness or with idtoeism ; if this le prosy had siezed a great part of our useful labourers and rendered them a burthen to the community ; if the prospects and the hopes of a large portion of our promising young men ha 1 been already blasted and destroy ed by it ; if it had infected more or less, every town and every village, and were spreading its ravages, from year to year, wider and yet wider: if this were the actual condition of our country, there is no telling how great would be the alarm. Neither this nor any similar calamity, Heav en be praised, has been brought up on om country by the direct hand of Providence, which has showered on us blessings without number and in g.t.tr abundance. But human folly and wickedness abuse the kindness of I / ovicencc and change its blessings into curses. _ Let sober reason judge, whether runkenness, habitual drunkenness, be not as bad, nay even worse, than the fatal leprosy I have described. It impairs and corrupts both body and mind, and brings down the noble creature man to a ievcl with the brute. It destroys all moral principle, all sen timents of honor, all feelings of hu inanity. It changes good nature to churlishness» a kind husband to an unfeeling monster, a dutiful son io an «principled villian withour natural U affections, and an industrious thriving man to an idle vagabond. It preys upon and devours every thing that is esti mable and amiable both in disposition and in character; it eats up the sub stance of its votaries,and is an inlet to all oilier vices, and to every evil and calamity almost that can be named — This detestable demon might say in truth, " my name is legion ; for we are many. Many indeed are the e vils, the calamities and abominations that follow in the train of drunken-, ness. " Who hath woe ? Who hath sor row ? who hath contentions Î who hath wounds without cause : Tin Who hath redness of eyes drunkard. Whose fields are neglect ed and overgrown with thorns and brambles ? Whose house is tum bling in ruins for want of necessary repairs .' Whose broken windows are repaired only with rough boards or stuffed with rags ? Whose wife is consumed with weeping î Whose babes are suffering hunger and naked ness ?—The drunkard's. Who d '13 tnrb peoples' repose with their mid night revcllitigs and yells ? who are the persons most commonly engaged in quarrels, in fightings, in riots, and in all scenes oTconfusion and uproar ? Drunkards- Who are the lowest of ali madmen, the most despicable of all idots ?—Drunkards The natural idiot, and the madman that lias become so by thr art of God, are objects not of reproach but of compassion. But the drunkard, who is in fact an idiot or a madman for the time being, is so by his own volunta ry act ; he wilfully quenches i:i him self the lamp of reason, and with his own snicidal hands destroys that no. ble faculty which had distinguish ed him from the beasts that perish. LONGEVITY IN LINCOLNSHIRE. When the famous Turkttul, \vh > had been chancellor of England, and one of the greatest w arrior* and states men of his time, retired from the world, and became abbot of Cro> land he found five veiy aged Monks in a monastery, to whom he paid particu lar attention. Father Clarenbold. the oldest of these Monks, died A. D. 973, after he had completed the 168th year of his age. The second who was named Swarling.died in the same year, at the age of 142. I'he third, who was called Father Turga , died the year after, in the 115 y eat of hts The two other Monks, Brunt asre. and Ajo died about the same time, whose ages are not exactly known though they must have been very old, as they both remembered the old Abbey of Croyland, which had been destroyed by the Danes in the year 870. These acts are related with much confidence by Ingulphus, who was abbot of Croyland, and wrote from the historical register ofthat Ab bey. When we reeol'ect, also, the very recent instance of longevity i Elizabeth Shaw's case, who died at Kc-ai Cotes, aged 117, wc think Lin conshire not so unhealthy as general Iy reported. — Lon. Pap.

If your feelings are not " to be touched by- the wrongs of the people, the jet your fears be roused by their resentment, I he wrath of British men is stow, but it is progresstve} the effect of heavy injury, cm to Inttered by continual insult; not eusilv roused, but once roused, not to be laid m without substantial justice ; it will not be ne satisfied with cutting off the contcmotible minions that cling round and prey upon you i —-it will be neither in your hereditary rank ! in your remembered services to protect tern nor ! The conflagration which has hitherto ' vou slumbered, or only thrown out i s casaal ; i blaze, shall awake ; it shall not be content to with feeding on the dry and worthless 1 weeds that lie at your feet, it shall rise to the mighty of the forest, and, in their parch ed and blasted verdure, leave only the more striktrg monuments of its unsparing deso by lation. Public forbearance has been exhauster] ; •he people cannot submit to further insult ; tLev will not comprehend the honest policy cl redeeming your character at the expense ol your country—and, by the appointment ot such men at Chatham and Dund to a3, pro ving to the nation that your's are not the on'.v hands by which n may be ruined. Is my lord Chatham a man fit to he put at the head of a British expedition ? What are his merits ? Where are his exploi's of ill successful intrepidity or practised skill ? Is it for his political virtues or his martial prowess ? Is it that your love of justice has oeen enraptured by the good outured im be partiality which has made him the pliant in strument of so many administrations ? Or I, it that voi reason liom his civil to his military accomplishments, not unjustly in ferring that the man who has spent his whole life in the barter of office, will he pecuii.ulv dextrous at a convention, and in spile of liondscoote and in Hehler, ohlit> rate even your renown in the art of capitul; .mg with the enemy ? You are not yet totally ruined. I dare not bid the vilest criminal despair. Your duty is plain ; dismiss those miserable sub stitutes of a . î'. 's ; send old Dnndas to Che'sea and his pension ; send Chatham in his cheap in laigi nces, his reversions, and his ha'f pay ; ttli him that the people will not suffer him to serve them ; that they are beginning to know and to despise such men; that their ci vice is not the private sinecure e ; a wl that, if they have pun it. used to tripping honor of a prince they idled th will not be more lenient to the stately perfi uy oi a peer . Titan, sir, instantly retire; misfortune has hut yet done half her works ; she has brought you to shame, let her now bring vou to repentance ! It would be useless to disguise from you that the period must he long and the remorse sincere, before the ; empire can consider you as the son of its sovereign. But I once more warn you to beware of retrieving your character by any sudden ex periment on popular applause! If it be true that from lord Chatham'« inco/sncity you I look to its Hi success, and fiom that to your assuming the command with some compar ative eclat ,no language can be strong enough I for yuur reprobation. But the plan has too much of laboured treachery for '. our indo lence Tilts would not he the spirit of the soldier struggling fairly in the great cause which would ennoble his fall. There is an other character ; it has probably suggested itself to your royal highness : it is the cow ardly marauder, lingering behind till the danger is over, and then stealing forth in darkness and security, to insult the bodies of the dead, and bring home an unresisting spoii from the desolation of the field. is JUNIUS. ? < 15 ji jette _ -ÜI 1 t IFiimington, November 25, 1809. \j —On Thursday evening last, at M A bv the Rev.

DOCUMENTS, Which accompanied the Message of the President of the Unittd States. Mr. Jackson to Mr. Smith, JPashing/on, 1 ! th October, 1 80(1. Sm —1 have had the hnn%r of receiving your official letter of the 9 th inst. towards the dose of which you inform me, that it has been an end to all verbal thought expedient to put communication between yourself and me, in discussing the impiortant objects of my misssion. Considering that a very few days have elapsed since I delivered to the president a credential ler ne! that nothing ter from the king my master, lias even been ailedged to have occurred, to dr ei' the facility of access, and of the prive, roe to immemorial usage, credit to which, accordin 1 am tty that le I k«Uv« there düCS Vot exist in the annals of diplomacy a precedent for such a determination between two ministers, who have met lor the avowed purpose of termi nating amicably tee existing differences between their respective countries : but. after mature re flection, I am induced to acquiesce in it by the 'recollection of the time that must necessarily elapse before I can teceivc his majesty's com mands upon so unexpected an occurrence, and of the detriment that would ensue to the pu bit service, if my ministerial functions were, in the interval, to be rdtogether suspended. 1 shall "therefore content myself with entering my pro test against a proceeding which 1 ran consider in no other light, than a violation, in my per son, of the most essential rights of a public mi nister when adopted, a 6 in the present case, with - out any ailedged misconduct on his part. Asa matter of opinion, i cannot, I own, assent to the preference which you give to written over verbal intercourse for the purpose of mutual ex planation and accommod'tion. 1 have thought it due to the public character with which l have the honor to be invested, and to the confidence which his majesty has been most graciously pleased to repose in me, to state to you unreser vedly my sentiments on this point. I shall now proceed to the o'her parts of your letter, and apply to them the best consideration that can arise from a zeal proportioned to the increase of difficulty thus thrown in the way of the restora tion of a thorough good understanding between our respective countries. You state, sir, very truly, that an arrar, ge ment had been made between you and Mr. Erskine, and that his majesty had thought pro per to disavow that arrangement. 1 have, herein the outset, to regret the loss of the advantage of verbal intercourse with yon, as I should have availed myself of it to enquire whether by your statement, it were your intention to complain of the disavowal it self, or i a total want of explanation of it, ci r of the circumstance of that explanation net having been made through me. I observe that in the records of this mission there is no trace of a complaint, on the part of the United States, of his majesty having disavowed the act of his minister. You have not in the conferences we have hitherto held, distinctly announced any such complaint, and I have seen, with plea sure, in this forbearance, on your part, an in stance of that candor, which I doubt not wiil prevail in all our communications, in as much as vouid could not hut have thought it unrea sonable to complain of the disavowal of an act, I J ute under such circumstances, as row'd on/n i lead to the consequences that have actually fol lowed. ft w it not known when I left England, whe tnur M: Ei Brine had, according to the liberty a,lowed him, communicated to you tn extenso his original instructions, It no appears that he cl d not, Bu', in reverting to his official cor respondence, and particularly to a dispatch ad dressed on the 20th of April to his majesty's secretary of state for foreign affairs, 1 find that he there states: that he had submitted lo your consideration, the three conditions specified in those ins.ructions, as the ground work of an airangemcnt which, according to infor ma: ion received from this country, it "was thought in England might be made, with a prospect of great mutual advantage. Mr. Erskine than re ports Verbatim et seriatim your observations upon each of the three conditions, and the rea sons which induced you to think that oth rs iTugnt he substituted in lieu ofthem. It mavhave been concluded between you that these latter were an equivalent for the original conditions ; hut the very act ofaubstitmion evidently shews that those original conditions were, in fact, ve ry explicitly ommunicat.cd to you,and by you of course laid belote the president for Iris : on vratioh. I need hardly add, that the difference between these conditions and those contained the arrangement of the 18th and 19 th April, m is sufficiently obvious to require no elucidation ; nor need I draw the conclusion, which I con sider as admitted by ail absence of complaint, on the part of the American government, viz that under such circumstances, his maiesty had an undoubted and incontrovertible right lo disavow the act of his minister. 1 must here .»liucle to a supposition, which you have more than once mentioned to me, and by which, if it had any the slightest foundation, this right might perhaps have been in some degree af fected. You have informed me that you un derstood that Mr. Erskine had two sets of in structions, by which to regulate his conduct ; and that upon one of them, which had not been communicated either to you or to the public, was to be rested the justification of the terms tin ally agreed upon between you and him — It is iny duty, sir, solemnly to declare to yu a.id, through you, to the president, that the dispatch from Mr. Canning to Mr. Erskine, which you have made the basis of an official correspondence with the hitter minister, and which was read by the former to the American minister in London, is the only dispatch, by which the conditions were prescribed to Mr. Erskine for the conclusion of an arrangement with this country on the matter to which it re lates. To return to the immediate subject of your letter. If, sir, it be your intention to state, that no explanation whatever has been given to the American government of the reasons which induced his majesty to Itsavow the act of my predecessor, i must, in that case, observe, that inthe instructions conveying to him his majesty* intention, thorn reasons were very fully fc forci bly stated ; St if he has not transmitted them to you, I can only attribute it to the peculiar deli cacy and embarrassment of his situatior, for which he probably trusted to the president's goodness to ma.'ke some allowance ; and he might the mortm-easonabiy be led to that reli ance on it, as,a full and ample communication was also made upon the Subject by his majesty's secretary of state for foreign affairs to Mr. Pinkney, to whom the whole of Mr. Erskine's origigpl instruction was read, and who, it was natural to suppose, would convey to his gov ernment so much information upon a very mo mentous occasion, as would relieve Mr. Ers kine from the necessity of entering into min ute details of the misunderstanding that had occurred. At all events, no complaint can be substantiated against his majesty's government 011 this score, seeing that they not only instruc ted the minister who had made the disavowed arrangement as to the motives which occasion ed the disavowal, but also with frankness, promptitude, and a most scrupulous regard to national honor, gave notice to the American minister in London of the disavowal, of the motives of it, and of the precautions sponta neously taken by his majesty to prevent any loss or i ijury accruing to the citizens of the Un fed States from a reliance on any agreement however unauthorised, made in his majesty's name. The mere allusion to this latter cir cumstance dispenses me from further noticing the effects which you describe as being produ ced upon the United States by the circumstan ces of this agreement. IIow far they are ir revocable it is not for me to determine—but the word ir-efinva/ile seems to imply that a loss had been sustained on the occasion by the pub lic or by individuals of this country. So far as his majesty could be by possibility supposed answerable for such an eventual loss, he has, as I have before stated, taken the utmost pre caution to avert it. As to the expectation entertained here, that the explanation of uis majesty's share in this transaction shotiid be made through me, 1 might content myself with simply observing, that 1 was not provided with instructions to that effect, because it was known that the ex planation in question had already been given. But it accords with the sentiments of his ma jesty towards this country to observe also, that he considered, that as some time must necessa rily elapse between my appointment and my entrance on the duties of my ministry, it would be a more friendly mode of proceed ng to stn'e without delay, and through the channels I h: ve already mentioned, the motives that com p I d his majesty to disavow the agm ment, then jo leave the American government in un certainty in these respects, till the unavoidably protracted period of my arrival in America.— I say this in regard to the original notification ot his majesty's determination, and of the mo tives ol it, which being already made, it could not he supposed in London that a repetition ol them would be expected from d of me : course no such case has been foreseen m my instruction« But if, beyond this any incidon tal explan: n or discussion should be w ished for by till: government, 1 came fully prepared into them. 1 even consider them to lo en! have taken place bet • ccn us. 1 have certainly t «rived great satisfaction from the several hows which we have spent in conference upon these subjects, because they have enabled me to re move some misunderstandings, and to refute many misrepresentations, Which you yourself informed r..e oT, in regard to the conduct of the British government. I consider such mu* tna] explanations as highly beneficial to a right understanding of the views and interests of the two countries, and I should with much plea sure have renewed them, if you had not in formed me that the president had been pleased to prescribe another and a different inode of conducting our négociations. I will nevertheless avail myself of that mode which he still permits to repeat to you that his majesty has authorised me, notwithstanding the ungracious manner in which his former of fer of satisfaction for the affair of the Chesa peake was rccc ved, to renew that which Mr. Erskine was instructed to make. You have said that you so fully understood the particu lars of that offer, that I deem it unnecessary to recapitulate them here : 1 regret that, since they we e clearly understood by you,you should not yet have be» n enabled to state to me either in our personal communications, or in the let ter which T am now answering, whe'her they are considered by the president as satisfactory, or whether they are such as he ultimately means to accept. You seem not so distinctly to have understood the form of proceeding in this affair, which 1 took the liberty of suggest ing as likely to lead to a satisfactory result, without however at all precluding any other method which might appear preferable to you. My proposal was, not to communicate a note tendering satisfaction, but lo agree with you before hand upon the terms of a declaration on the par; of his majesty, which should ad unity give, the satisfaction, (the conditions of which 1 informed you that I was authorised to carry in toimmediate-execution) and of a counter de claration to be «igned l y you on the part of the United States lor the purpose of accepting such satisfaction. 1 expressly stated that this interchange of official documents w.: c not meant by me as the mean", of conveying to each other onr respective sentiments ; that I understood irj be, as is usual, the object of onr conferences ; and 1 imagined that the papers to he signed by us, respectively, won Id be then suit of those sen ciments so commnm'ca'ed, and that bv being re- I !, and sîwuï ciprocally correcte. 1 ar.d mod taneously delivered, th ;!l (1 fo: 0'V cm- I pact by which the two counties won ; equally bound. '1 his con ol ] ce.'iin^ is comfomlable to t C'î'.irts cf 1 lice 0 ! Europe on x id 1 ; :t at occasions. the time appear lo object toit; you even re quested me to come the next day, prepared with a draft or project of a paper, framed in pursuance to these ideas; and although you desired to refer the subject to the piesidetlt for his approbation, 1 do not find in your letter ei ther an expression of his sentiments upon it, or the substitution of any other form that might be more agreeable to him, than the one which i have proposed. J touch with considerable and very sincere reluctance upon that part of your letter, in which you state that I had not assigned " any reason whatever why the reasonable terms of satisfaction tendered and accepted have not been carried into effect." 1 believed that I had observed to you, in the words of my instructions, that if his majesty were capable of being actuated by any desire to retract an offer of reparation which he had once made, his majesty might he well warranted in doing so both bv the form in which his accredited minister had tendered that repa ration, and by the manner in which thaï ten der had been received. 1 believe that 1 eluci dated this observation by a reference to the par ticular expressions, which made the terms of satisfaction appear to be unacceptable even to the American government, at the very moment when they were accepted, and which at all events put it totally out of his majesty's power to ratify and confirm any act in which such ex pressions were contained. On the subject of his majesty's orders in council, I have had the honor of informing you that Ids majesty having caused to be made 10 the government of the United States certain proposals, founded upon principles, some of which were understood to originate in Ameri can authorities, and others to be acquiesced in bv them : and having afterwards ascertained, in the manner mentioned iu a former part of this letter, that the scrtlmeiits of the American g° vernment were so different from what they were at first undrrrtoort to I e, I w%'t not instructed tc tenew to you those proposals, nor to press upon, your acceptance an arrangement which ha:'been so recently declined, 'ally as the arrange esi ment itself is hi ruome less important, and the terms of it less a pp'.icable to the state of things cow ex ling. I nose con side rations which were first intims ten in Mr. C ar.niiig's official leticr to Mr. Pink ney of the 23.1 September, 1808, and which, in ihe procès- ol the following six months, acqui* ltd greater weight and influence, induced his majesty, before the result cf Mr. Ersktnc's né gociation was known, to modify the orders in commit of November, 1 80;, by that of the 26:h of April, 1309. i he effect of tlii neW order is to- relieve ih& system under.which the former orders were i 1 - cd, from that tiilirh has always been represented in this country, as the most objectionable and offensive part of it—the option given in neutrals tn trace tv: 1 the enemies of Great Britain thru* British por.s on payment of a transit duty.—* This was originally devised and intended as a mitigation of what is certainly more correct hut rigid in principle—the total und unqualifi mot ed interdiction of all trade with the ene If» my. however, this mitigation was felt as an nggrava tion, and, as has been sometimes warmly assert ed. as an insult, that cause of complaint is now entirely removed. By the order in council of the 26th April, 1 309, all trade with France and Holland, and the ports of Italy, comprehended under the denomination of the kingdom of Ita ly, is simply prohibited altogether. No option is afforded, ami consequently no transit duty is required to be paid. In another respect, the order in council of the Sb'th April must be ad mitted to be mote restrictive than those of Ncv. 1307. The trade with enemies' colonies which was opened to neutrals at t.lte commencement of the p-esent war, by the order in council of tne24th of June, 1 803, was continued to be !r!t m-en by those of November, 1,807. The ordet in coun cil cf til- Zb'tb April retracts th-s indulgence.— But it is to : observed, that since the period when the ordets in council of Nov. 1807 were issued, the opening of the ports of S nain, of Potfugai, of the south of Italy and ol Turkey, has affoided a more ample scope tn neutral com merce, am! that bv the capture 0 ! Martinique, in addition to that ot almost all the colonies cf the enemies of Great Britain, to tfier with the blor kadc f Guaduloupe, the ext r.t to which the liberty of commerce with s' colonics ap encmi plied has been so far narrowed, that there is lit tle of practical harcLh'p in recurring to the rule which, however occasionally mitigated in its application, Great Biit.tin can never crvtc m. principle to maintain. It is farther to he ohscr ved, that the order in council of the 26'th A it has this operation highly favorable to neiitnf# that restricting the regulations of hie iCl^C ?9 France, Holland and their coloni-s, a iV.i fötl.Cf territories denominated the kingdom of Jjj t {lays open to the direct tra of neutrals !! -s of the north of Europe, l rr rhe ok! n 2Srh April, rherefo w mi if Uieic arc on I.m? one I hand few 'WlVturcc fo stand in the I'M! r »T n rati .t bet 'A wa n O, I B' ; - n .1 S' that »3 boifhrr to 1 he lat "»'S t'M.'î 7 r to mtvr into .in if, a* the c. r.i.'nt of thei arran;<emi •TJ tmy be, if the; •t"i>e, nearly an it 'u»- thv order in cox 1 of the 2cifli A. ri it would hr even without .v such order s' as France and the power 1 to Franci continue to enforce their 1 it is ir. t! in itier of liidiffV same proportion o o'eiit Britain, whether the ler in council he con ti mied n arrangement by mutual consen 01 rah* stitund in its room.

J. JACKSON. 7 he lion. Hebert Smith, Sc. 4'c. q-c. Mr. Smith to Mr. Jackson. Department of 3tate y Oct • 19 » 1309 » Silt, 1 have had the honor of receiving your letter of the 1 Uh instant. Before 1 proceed to the more material topics, which it embraces, it is proper that 1 should take some notice of your construction, which has unhappily converted an intimation of the expediency of conducting in a written form nu further discussions on this particular into a ge nera! prohibition of all veib.il communications whatever, and into an unprecedented violation of the most essentia! rights of a public minister, requiring a formal protest and a resott to the commands of your sovereign. A recurrence to that intimation cannot fail to shew, that its sole object was to avoid, in the further discussions ot a case of unu.-ual delicacy and importance, tiie misconception* well ku< » .. to be incident to oral proceedings, and of which eo the two go the diplomatic intercoursi bet i i many and such sr vcrnmentu hail furnished :lf is nous proofs—nay, of which your 1c additional illustration. That a change in . diplomatic discussions from an oral to a wi uteri form is not without precedent, 1 cannot refer to nne which will he moie satisfactory to you than the intimation recently given by Mr. Canning, ne of the p.opoit i oy kney on in th the subject of the orders in con i! and the cm baruo, that the discuss' ii ii had been pre s w vernal must thenceforth take a written viously form. And with this view i take the liberty of .recalling your attention to the subjoined extracts {see A. and if.} of letters that pissed o:: that oc • ision. On the present, as on that occasion, the change from verbal to written communications was requested after two conferences, and when the subject appeared to one of tiie parties to have, by those verba! discussions, been brought to a point, which required a precise under standing of the views and propositions of the other. Yo.i will, sir, hence perceive, that in main taining the right, which every government has as to the rules of intercourse with foreign func tionaries near ir, no encroachment lias been made or intended on any right or customary p i vil.-gu belonging to yea io that diu-acte , nor any tiling done to impede the proper and usual course of négociation. You have been sufficient!/ by mv : Vi Ic't ir of the 9th, of the light in which the presi dent views the arrangement lately made bv your ment, and ot »tie tins govei Jireu sor wit grounds on which he has c etc.! a formal arid titii'hfactory c:-.;i le reasons for th anal nm rstua.il of his !.. tannic nu ty to carry it into n:;.. i .turn, and in i 1 ut i e opinion, th if fSjçri* his been en lio ex pia iiiou that i* a;It q u ite, either ille matter or 1 » the nio 'e. With every disposition .o view to the most favorable light whatever may affect the relations between the two countries, it is impossible to mistake the conversations of those ministers for a discharge of such a debt to the good faith and reasonable expectations ot the United States.— BesiJes that they were mete conversations in a case requiring the precision and respect of a for mal communication, it is certain that it was nei ther understood by Mr. Pinkney, nor intended by Mr. Canning, that those conversations were so to be regarded. Mr. Pinkney is explicit on this point. And Mr. Canning himself, alter declining to recapitulate in writing what lie had •crbally remarked,signified to Mr. Pinkney in a letter dated May 2'lb, that his observations on the subject would be more properly made thro' the successor of Mr. Krskiue, who was about to pro red to the United States. With respect to the instructions on this point, given to Mr. Erskine, it may be sufficient tore oark, that they were never carried into ixeouli tion ; but it may be askc.l, whether it was a rk of friendly respect to the United States to employ for such i purpose a minister fiom whom his government had thought proper publicly to withdraw its confidence, and io the peculiar de licacy and embarrassment f wiio«r situation you have you'se-f referred, as accounting 'or Ins not navirg executed the task imposed upon him I must here repeat, what wan suggested in my former lerer, that tiie successor oi Mi, 1 ieine is the proper functionary for a proper explanation Nor can 1 perceive tiie force ot your remark, th it the delay incident to your arrival in the U nited States rendered it mure consistent with the friendly sentiments of his majesty to préfet the other channels for communicating the motives for tils disavowal To y r own leconsiderution I appeal, whether the cours'- most consonant to those friendly sentiments was not the obviou« one oi employing this new organ, guarding at tiie same time against any misconstruction of the delay by apprizing the American government through its mini.-ter of the cai se of it. The supposition, that the delay incident to your mis son gave rise to the conversation of Mr. Can ning and Mr. Pinkney, is not reconcilcable to the correspondence of the latter, which contains n i such indication. On the contrary it distinct ly shews that he was apprised of the intend.) ■ to replace Mr. Eiskine by a successor, whom he leg., led as the proper channel for the explana tory communications, that he understood Mr. Canning to be under the same impression, and that he learned from yourself, not more than uvo days afier his conversations with Mr. Canning, that you were to sail for the United States within three weeks. s/.hf» frvi.ii i\|-; i irr declaration " mat 2 i.i .1 tmi.1 Mr. Canning to Mr. Erskine »I tiie ry is die only dispatch by which t!ic conditions prescribed to Mr. Krskiue for ibe coiiclti were on tiie matter io « hielt siou of an arrangement it relates" 4s now for the first time mile to thif Ami I need hardly add, that ii government. 'mated at the time that dispatch had been coin n i.fthe arrangement, or if it had h en known that the propositions contained in it and which were at first presented by Mr. Erskine, were tlie only ones, on which he vyas authorised to make an ar rangement, the arrangement would not have been made. As you have disclaimed any authority to offer explanations for the disavowal, as you have been willing to ascribe the want of such authority to the consideration that other chancels had been preferred, and as you have even considered the circumstances under which the arrangements took place to be si ell as could only lead to a dis avowal, and therefore as superceding the necessi ty of any explanation whatever, it is to be re gretted that you had not deemed it proper to ren der precise and explicit, that part of your letter which seems to imply that you had in our con in relation to the affair of the Chesa versaMons, peakc, following the words of your instructions, held out not only the maim r in which the rc piration had been accepted, but even the form in which it had been tendered, as warranting his majesty in even retracting the offer of reparation and that you had elucidated the observation by a reference to the particular expressions which, at all events put it totally out of his power to con firm any act containing them. Whatever nil y have ben your internions in ilii- part of our conversation, or whatever may be mport of the passage to which I have just tue . lluded, I have now the honor of signifying to you, that I am aulliotised to receive in a pro per form whatever explicit explanations you m ly chuse to make, with respect to the grounds of this part of the disavowal ; and without enqui ring whether your anthority be derived from in structions that have been addressed to yourself, or that have devolved on you as the successor of the minister who had declined to execute them. As you have at the same time, been pleas'd to say that his Britannic majesty had authoiised you to renew the offer of satisfaction which Mr. Erskine was instructed to make, it was also na turally expected that yon would in your letter have stated with precision in what that offer dif lered from the reparation solemnly tendered by Mr. Erskine and accepted by the United States, ami that you would have shown in what the rc paration th us tendered differed from his instruc rions. And when I ha>'t ie honor to intimate rions. And when I ha>'t ie honor to intimate that in order to avoid the misconceptions, inci den to oral proceedings, it was thought expe dient that our further discussions on the present occasion should be in the written form there was rt of the subject to which that intimation no ' ' with more force than the case of the Che ap; a -; none on which it was more desirable s.pi to avoid misconceptions and to obtain, a precise knowledge of the propositions which you were authorised to make; not only because I did not re illy understand the particulars of the offer as distinctly as you seem to have supposed, but al s , because, on that point and oil that point alone, you had expressly stated that yon had proposi t onslo m ike, and that you were authorised to carry them into immediate execution. On the subject of the orders in council, the president perceives with sentiments of deep re gret, that your instructions ronUtriplate neither an explanation of the refusal of your govern ment to fulfil the arrangement of that branch of the existing differences, nor I lie substitution of any other plan of adjustment, nor any authority to conclude any agreement on that subject ; but merely to receive and discuss proposals, that might he made to you on the part of the Unites! States ; and these, it appeal's, must include a stipulation on the par, of the U. States to relin quish the trade with the cncmic's colonics evan in branches not hitherto interrupted by British orders for capture, and also a sanction to the en forcing of an act of congress by the British navy. Were the way properly opened for formal propofnions from this government, a known determination ou the part of his Biitattnic ma jefty to adhere to fuch extraordinary prêteri ons would preclude the hope of fuccefs in fuch advances, whether legard be had to the condi tions themfs! es, or to the difpofition they in eicate m re urn for the conciliatory temper w." i id- een evinced by the United Mates. As to the demand in relation to the colonia trade, it has been the lei's apprehended, as it is not ni itfelf connected, nor has it ever before o" r ° \| ' i 1 j= !t ! nt0 connex, °n, either with the calc of the orders 11 counc 1, or with that of the C'hefapeake. And it was readable to pre fume, f tie deas of fuel, a condition had in the firff inffance proceeded from the erroneous be lief that it was not o! je&ionahle to the Un ted States that it would not have be.n pc filled in after that error had been afceitained and ac knowled ed. I he other demand could fliil lefs have been ap rehrnded. Bcfides the inevitable and incal salable abufes incident to fuch a licenfe to fo reign cruizers, the ftipolation would touch one nation'll^ i P r r ri PleS ? f iovere 'K rit J; which nationoiightto hive been expend to in no pair roi where wou.tMie the diiFerencc in principle between autl.oriling a foreign gov ernment to execute and auihoiiitng it "0 make laws for ns Ï Ncr ought it to be fuppofed that the lknftions and precautions of a law of the United States, in the cafes of the prohibited trade in queflion would prove infficacious lor ' ts P u 7"'«' iah none ot thofe obftacles pref<Mted them lctves to the convié corvdponding with the fen-1 s of tie t intents m, fliould have tc:c great jdealure in giv.ng , a . formal affurances of his readiuefs to execute the eondtianal authority with which lie is invellej f r refforing in its full extent, a., far as it mav depend on the United Mates, ilie commercial inlercourtc of the two countries, and tha* j ic would moreover, be dilpofed to extend the ex périment of a friendly négociation to every point of difference and of imrual interetl l )c „ tween them. If indeed in the event of a fuc. cefsful terminati m of wliat rehrtes to the caii of tlie Cliefapcake, it be thought that a removal of the difficulties arifing from the orders in council might be fac litated by com prehendiug them in a general négociation and the operate on of the o ders can in the mean time he fuf. pe :ded, the door might he conlidered as imme diately open to that courte of proceeding. To l'uch a fulpeufion no re (finable objection can be made, if, as yon have dated, the orders in cou cil a* now modified leave the trade of tile United '..ales nearly as great as it would he without the exiftence of -uch orders, fo Ion« as France and the other powers fliall continue their decrees, and in as much is a d fcontinu ance of tli if decrees by thole powers confc-fs edly requires an immediate revocation of the orders m • ouncil. That a fulpeufion of the orders with a view to their being brought into a general neg. cia. tiou is more rcslfinable than a ternpora y fub tiiifilotl to their authority, by the United states with that view, is obvious from tiie reflection that filch a liibinniifiiim would neceffa i ! y in. volve the principle which they have liedfafily aflerted, whereas a dilconlinuance of the ord ers in council in llie prefent actual fiate of th ugs would not be incompatible with the principle on which they were originally foun ded. This principle was, as you well know, the neceliity ot letallating, through neutrals, iiiju■ its received through a violation of their rights bv another belligerent. In the aftual ftate of things, and under the actual modifica tion ot the orders in council produced by it, it is admitted by you, that the orcl-rs have no practical effect in abridging the commerce of neutrals, and can of cour-e have no retaliating effect on the other hell gerents. Although it cannot be allowed to be true that the orders in council are no longer injuri ous to the commerce of the United Mate», it is certainly true that they produce no degree of injury to the enem es of Great Britain that can countenance the retaliating plea allcdged in What, permit me to a(k, is the degree of in jury aiflu dly accruing ta the enemies of Great Ur.tain from 1er ret liât ng orders ! Accord ing to t.hofe orders, as now modified, and more elpecally taking into view along with then', the prohibitory law of this country in relation to France, the efiintial différence between their repeal and their exiffcnce confiffs in this—that in the cafe of their tepeal, as pledged in the arrangement of April, the trade of the United States might be carried on directly with the ports of Holland, whilft during their exiftence, as at prefent, it is to be carried on through the contiguous and neighbouring ports. To your own calculations, fir, . fubmit, whether the in confiderable effect of this circuit on the prices of Holland an,I in the countries fupplied thro' her, can any longer fuftain the plea of nflicting distress on an enemy, or nalliate the inju ries done to a friend by a proceeding so contrary to his sentiments of justice, and which subject bis regular commerce not only to inconvenient channels, but to all the abuses which may result from the sus picions, real or pretended, of interested cruizers. You cannot but be sensible, that a perseverance under such circumstances in a system, which cannot longer be explained by its avowed object, would force an ex planation by some object not avowed — What object might be considered as best explaining it, is an enquiry to which I (In cot permit myself to enter further than to remark, that in relation to the United States it must be an illegitimate object. It remains to make a few observations which are due to the just interests of the United Slates, and which are invited by yours relating to the order in council of May last.

The order does not provide for the From important case of vessels, which had sailed the like faith for Dutch ports other than on those of Holland. (as 4th. It does not include in its provisions the extensive lists of vessels going indirect ed, ly froirt he United Stales, but directly from Foreign ports to those of Holland ; bal nor vessels trading entirely from foreign parts to Holland ; and in both these instan ces proceeding on the faith ol the arrange ment professed to be respected within the defined period. It is true, in these last instances the ves anv sel* were not to be captured without an at of tempt, after contrary warning, to proceed to those ports. But I need not remind an you that the injuries incident to the de lay and to the breaking up of such voya ages cannot bui have been considerable,and will have resulted as manifesdy from the disappointed faith in the arrangement as in the cases especially provided for, and consequently with all other losses tairly resulting from the same bona fide confi dence in that act, they will fall within the just indemnification for which the principle, assumed in order, as a formal pledge. I conclude, sir, with nresting upon your candid attention that the least which the president c.iuld have looked for in conse quence of the disavowal of a transaction such as was concluded by your predecess of or and cart ied laithfull-r into effect by this govei ament,was an explanation fro n vours it of the disavowal, not through the minister disavowed, but through the successor—an explanation founded on reasons strong and solid in themselves, and presented, neither form com verbally, nor vaguely, butina porting with the occasion, and w.lh the re spect due to the good characte and to the good faith of the disappointed party—that u has been found with much concern and with no le-s surprise, that you are charged with no such explanations—that you have apparently wished to bring the subjects, which have been forma'ly and definitively arranged into a fresh négociation ; as if no such arrangement hud taken place ; that one of the causes thus slighted, viz. that of the frigate CIli • sapeake, is a case for which reparation, not denied to be due, had been previously so long withh .ld, or rather in which the aggresion itself had been spun out, to the present moment, by the contin ued detention of the mariners, whose sei zure, making a part of the original hostili ty, commuted against the American frigate must be regarded in a light analogous to a continued detention of the ship itself; that in the other case, viz. that of the or ders in council, you are not authorised to tender explanations fur the disavowal, or to propose any new arrangement, nor to conclude any agreement but solely to re ceive and diseuss propositions which m'ght he made to you, not concealing at the same time, that to be satisfactory they must in clude two , ond lions, both inadmha bD, • ne altogether it relevant to the subject, and the «eher requiring nothing less than a surrender of an unalterable function of the national sat creignty. Notwithstanding these repulsive con siderations, such is the disposition of the President to facilitate a final and compre hensive accommodation between the two nations, that he is ready, as I have already had the honor of signifying to you, to fa vour any mode of bringing about so happy an event that may he found consistent with the honour and the essential interests of the United States. I have ths honor to be, &c. R. SMITH. (Signed) The honourable Francis James Jackson , fiY. ÜY. &?c. (A) Ex Intel of a letter fenm htr. Pinkney to Mr. Canning, dated London, Ort. 10 III, 1808. «* At our first interview (on the 20th June) verbal communication was not dis countenanced, but commanded : For, after I had made mvself understood as to tite for which the interview had been purpose requested, you asked me if I thought of foi mal course, hut immt di taking a more aiely added that voit presumed I did not, or that the course I had adopted was well My reply was, in suited to the occasion, substance, that the freedom of conversation was heuer adapted to our subject and more likelv to conduct us to an advantageous conclusion, than the constraint and formali ty of written intercourse, and that I had not intended to present a note. At the d July) it did second interview (on the not occur to me that I had any reason to conclude, and certainly I did not conclude, that verbal communication had not conti nued to he acceptable ;:s a preparatory course, and it was not until the third inter view (on the 29th July) that it was rejected as inadmissible." w [Extract.] From Mr. Canning to Mr. Pinkney, /lati.i Nov. 22 d, 180$). " It is highly improbable that I did not (as you say I did no ) assign to you as the motive of the wish which I then express ed, my persuasion, that written communi cations are less liable to mistake than ver bal ones : because that consideration is suf ficiently obvious, and because the whole course and practice of office is in that re spect so established and invariable, that I coo'd not have supposed the assignment of anv specific motive to be necessary tc ac count for my requiring a written statement of vour proposals previous to my returning an official answer to them. I had tak- n for granted all along thaï such would, and such must, be the ultimate proceeding on your part, however you might wish to prepare the way for it by preliminary conversations." (Q Extract of a Utter .from Mr E'skine to Mr. Smi'h, (tninl IFirdiingon, JuU) 21/, 180$). " Neither the present time nor the occa sion will afford me a favorable opprtuntty for explaining to you the grounds and rea sons upon which I conceived I had confor med to his majesty's wishes ; and to the spirit, at least, of my instructions upon that subject, nor indeed would anv vindication of mv conduct, whatever I m<y have to offer, be of any importance further than as it might tend to show that no intention ex isted on my part to practice anv deception towards the government of the U. States. n From the Same to the same, fluted August 1 it/i, 180$). " Under these circumstances, therefore, finding that I could not obtain the recogni tions specified in Mr. Canning's dispatch of the 23d January, which formed but one part of his instructions to me in the formal manner required, I considered that it would he in vain to lay before the government or the United States the dispatch in question, which I was at liberty to have done in ex tenso had I thought proper. But as I had such strong grounds for believing that the objects of his majesty's government could be attained, thougli in a different manner, and the spirit, at least of my several letters of instruction be fully complied with, 1 felt a thorough convicitoti upon my mind, that I should be acting in conformity with his majesty's wishes, and accordingly conclu ded the late provisional agreement on his majesty's behalf with the government of the United States. " The disavowal liy his majesty is a painful proof to me that I had formed an erroneous judgment of his majesty's views and the intention of my instructions ; and I have most severely to lament that an act of mine, though unintentionally, should produce any embarrassment in the relati ons between the two countries. n [The correspondence between the Secret try of State and Mr. Jackson will be concluded in our nr'.] a Xbe të3ette.

Mr. Jones, AS there have been several attempts in the state of Delaware to procure the adoption of the reference law, permit me, through the medium of your paper, to ob serve to the gentlemen advocates of that system, (which I hope they will have the satisfaction ere long to carry into effect,) that the most essential point to which they ought to bend their attention is the right of appeal. This, gentlemen, you will observe among oilier things, is creating some stir with the advocates of the measure in Penn sylvania. Unfortunately for the people of that state, the bill has been drafted by very imperfect legislators, which circumstance ought also to excite your serious attention here. If I recollect perfectly, the author ol " Samson pgainsl the Philistines" has over looked this point. 1 cannot omit in this place (though I hold in high estimation, in many respects, both the author and pans* ; '■ i phlet) that there are some very important omissions in that valuable and ingenious work ; and to the best of mv memory, the one now alluded to. The light of appeal, I view differently from many of the writers in Pennsylvania. 1 would certainly in this case admit of appeal on the following con of ditions, viz : That the party dissatisfied with the first decision mav have a second or third reference, by paying ail costs inci dent thereto, but in no case admit of an ap peal to court, as it would most certainly us augment litigation, and destroy the very in the tentions of the law. ' We all know " Oirtnc his principium grave yet 'tis certain, 'lis an easy thing to succeed, when business is rightly began. the But, if attention is wanted in the first in the stance, ten to one if the whole is not lost of (however pure) from want of this requisite. Gentlemen, you will consider maturely the above observations, as I hope the time is not far distant when you will most com or pletely enjoy the benefits of this wholesome law. I would also refer you the publicati ons in a late Aurora, relative to this point. A FRIEND. he Congress. —Except the usual business of form ing standing committees, Etc. the following are the only important matters that have yet been transacted in Congress ; Mr. Macon, after some observations, submit ted two resolutions. Or.c was to exclude all vessels from the ports of the United States, which may come fiom ports where American voscls are prohibited ; the other was in sub stance the same as the one he offered the last session, but was not then acted upon—That new registers should he granted to all American ves sels which may have lost the same ; and that for the future no sea letter or other custom house document should lie granted to any vessel not built in the United States and owned by citizens thereof. Referred to the committee of commerce and m .nufactures, to report by bill or other wise. Mr. Dana offered a resolution (the same as he offe.ed the la-t session) that no visse) should lie considered as a vessel of the United Stairs, unless a certain portion of her seamen Were citizens of the United States. Referred to the committee of commerce and manufactures, to report by bill or otherwise. The Mouse then resolved itself into a commit tee of the whole on the state of the nation.

He is none of those souls that like to unbend themselves after war in the plea sures of a capital, or in the enjoyments of home or kindred. For him there is no home—for him peace lias no joys, and tranquility no charms. The termination of one war is but the prelude to the commencement of a new one, and having trodden upon the neck of Austria, he will fly with all the activity of his nature to rivet Ins yoke upon the neck of Spain, The goklen opportunity which the Austrian war af forded has been lost—from what causes, whe ther from the taruiness of the Spanish charac ter, or the imbecility of the Spanish junta, or the adoption of an improper system, it were now useless to enquire, and unavailing to la ment. Letters from Gibraltar state that the Mar quis Wellesley ha t made a spirited remon stranceto the supreme junta, on the 'efficiency of their measures to resist the subjugation of Spain. A lettev from Gibraltar s3ys—" The utmost discontent against the present government pre vails throughout Spain, and the Junta arc sa apprehensive of an insurrection at Seville, that they have ordered ten thousand men therefrom the armies, to protect their persons. Marquis Wellesley attends the supreme junta twice and thrice a \|c'ay : but there is reason to sup pose that he is justly dissatisfied with their con duct." . The Marquis Wellesley will certainly be re called from Spain, to fill one of the departments of government. At present the following are the cabinet min isters—lit. hon.

DOCUMENTS, f'cmnpamrd the Aft-ssagn oj the President Which of the United •Units, Mi. Jackson to Mr. Smith, Washington^ 23d October, 5 BO'. Sir,— The letter, which yon did me the honor to address to tne on the iqth inst. was delivct ed so to me on the following day. 1 shall without loss of time transmit it to my court where the various and important considerations whiclt it embraces will receive the attention due to them. In the interval, I would beg leave to submit to you the following observa tons as titev arise out ol the communications that have already occurred between us. In fulfilling a duty which I conceive tobe due to my public character, 1 have never sug gested, nor meant to suggest, that the mode o! ncgociating prescribed by you on this particu lar occasion —an occasion selected lor the pur existing difference» pose of removing was otherwise objectionable, than as it appeared to me to be less c Isolated, than it does to you, to of our négocia answer the professed purposi ton. It was ogainst the general pnnciple of de barring a foreign minister, in the short space of one week after his arrival, and without any misunderstanding with him irom all previous personal intercourse, that 1 thought it right to Since, however, I find by your letter protest. that it is not intended to apply that principle to me, I will only observe, that in the case which vou mention to have 01 sur red between Mr. Canning and Mr. Pinkney, the conierences were held, under an expectation at least on the part of the former of their leading to a writ ten communication,whereas in ours, I,from the beginning, stated that 1 had no such communi cation to make. There is also this essential difference between the two cases that Mr. Pinkney was charged to convey an important proposal to his rnajesiy's government, the par ticulars of which it might be very material to have correctly stated whilst the object of that part of in)' conversation, to which yon seem to ■t 1 ta c 1 1 the roost importance, was to say that I .vas not charged to make any proposal what ever. it couid not enter into my view to withhold from you nti explanation merely because it had been already given, but because, having been so given 1 could not imagine, until informed by you, that a rep tiiion of it would be requir ed at tnv hands. I am quite certain that his majesty's government having complied with wli.it was considered to be the substantial duty imposed upon it on this occasion would, had this been Ion-seen have added to the proofs of conciliatory good faith already manifested, the farther complacency to the wishes of the U. States of adopting the form of communication most agreeably to them, and of giving through r.-.c the explanation in question. 1 have there fore no betitation in informing you, that his majesty vvesp eased to iliavow the agreement concluded b. tween you and Mr. Erskine, bc concluded in violation of that gen cause it vvi s tleman's instructions, ami altogether without authority to subscribe to the terms ol it. I liese i istnictions I now understandby your letter as Well as H orn the obvious deduction which I t »ok the i berty of making in mine of the 1 rib mst. vvlte-e at the time, in substance made known to yon ; no stronger illustration there fore can be given of the deviation from them ■a hieb occurred, than by a rclei euce to the terms if your agreement. Nothing can be more notorious titan the fre quency with which in the cou.se ot a compli cated négociation ministers are furnished with a gradation of conditions on which they may be successively authorized to conclude, ,\c. common is the case which you put hypotheti cally that in acceding to ti.e justice of your statement, I feel myself impelled 10 make only one observation upon it, which is that it does nor stiike me as bearing upon the co, Adora ion of the unauthorised agreement concluded here, in ns much as m point of fact, .Mr. liiskne had no such graduated instruction. You are already acquainted with that which was given, and 1 have had the honor of informing you that it was the only one by which the conditions on which he was to conclude were prescribed. So far from the terms, which he was actually in :il in duced to accept, having been contempla that instruction he himself states that they were substituted by you m lieu of those originally proposed. It may perhaps be satisfactory thru I should say here that 1 must willingly subscribe on this occasion to the highly respectable authprty which you have quoted and i join issue with you upon the essentials which that authou'y requires to constitute a right to disavow the ... I of a public minister. 1 is not immaterial to observe on the qualifi cation contained in the passage you have quo ted—as it implies in the case of a minister concluding in virtue of a full power. * To this it would suffice to answer, that Mr. Endette had no full power; and his act consequently does not come within the range of your quotation, although it cannot be forgotten that the United States have at no very distant period, most free ly exercised the right of withholding their ra tification from even the authorised act of their own diplomatic agents, done under the avowed section of a full power. I c >nceive that what has been already said establishes beyond the reach of doubt or con trovevsey that his majesty's mini .ter did violate his instructions, and the consequent right in bis majesty to disavow an act so concluded.— That his majesty had strong arid nolid reasons for so doing will appear not only from his instruc tions haying been violated, but from the cir cumstance that the violation of them involved the saci dice of a great system of policy delib erately adopted arid acted upon in just and ne cessary retaliation of the unprecedented modes of hostility resorted to by his enemy. There appears to have prev iled throughout the while of this transaction a fundamental mistake, which would suggest that his majesty bad proposed to propitiate the government ol the United States in or far to induce it to con sent, to the renewal of the commercial inter course between the tv o countries; as if such had been the relations between Great Britain and America, that the advantages of that inter course were wholly on the side of the former ; an.las if in any anangement whether commer ce al or pof tical, his majesty could condescend to barter objects of national policy and dignity for permission to trade with another country. Without minutely calculating what may be the degree of pressure feit at Paris by the dif ference in the price of goods whether landed at Havre or at Hamburg, I will, in my turn appeal to your judgment, sir, whether it be not a strong and solid reason, worthy to guide the councils of a great and powerful monarch to set bounds to that spirit of encroachment ami universal dominion which would bend all things to its own standard ? Is it nothing in the pre sent state of the wotld, when the agents of France authoritatively announce to their vic tims that Europe is submitting and surren dering by degrees," that the world should know, that there is a nation which by'that divine goodness so strongly appealed to in the paper to which 1 aliude,' is enabled to falsify the as set tion ? Is it not important at such a moment, that Europe and America should be convinced, that, from whatever countries honorable and manly resistance to such a spirit may have been banished, it will still be found in the sovereign of the British nation and in the hearts ot his subjects ? As to the precautions taken in England to insure from injury upon this occasion the citi zens of the United States, and which appear to you to be even yet insufficient, I am confident that ill every doubt fid case the usual liberality of ottr tribunals will be exercised >n determin ing upon the circumstances of it ; and it was at'Mr. Pinkney's express tequisition, that ad ditional instructions were given to the com manders of his majesty's ships of war and pri vateers to extend to vessels trading to the co lonies, plantations and settlements of Holland, the same exemption from a capture and moles tation, a. was granted to vessels sailing for any of the ports of Holland. On the subject of the return cargoes front those ports, 1 must observe that although it intended to prevent as far as was practica ble the inconveniences likely to be created by the unauthorised agreement made herein April last, yet it was not and could be intended to obviate all possible inconveniences, even such might have arisen if no such agreement had as ever been made. If an American vessel had sailed from A Auvttreau 0 * proclamation to the Catc/loniam * merica for I lolland in a time of profound peace, or in time of war, the ports of Holland nut be ing at the date of sailing under blockade, it might yet have happened that, in the period it between tilt: commencement of such voyage and the arrival of the vessel at the port of des tination, a blockade might have been establish ed before that port. The vessel arriving would in that ra t, have be. n warned not to enter the port, and would have been turned away with the loss of the whole object of the voyage.— i ll's would be no extraordinary hardship, and < Would afford no legitimate ground of complaint. [ I he older in council is far less strict than such a blockade would be, for as much as it provid s for the original voyage, commenced in expectation of being admitted to the port ol J destination, by permitting by entry into the pons of I klhuid ; and it is no just ground of uni, shut it doc» net uttperudd to th.it per con nns.sicu the l.buty..to.r.e-t'x finit u car_o of ti c the enemy's goods or produce. 1 beg leave briefly to re-cap'.uilntc the sub stance of what 1 have had the honor to con verbal, us in written u-y to yr.n as a communications. ! !'. ve informed you of the reasons of bis lmijes'y's liiiuvinval of the agreement no often mentioned; 1 have shewn them, in obedience to Hie authority which you have quoted, to be both strong and solid, and such as ip outweigh, in the judgment of bis majesty's government, every other consideration which yon have con templated ; I have shewn that agreement was concluded in viittie of a full power and that the instructions, given on the occasion, were violated. Beyond this point of explanation wliieh was supposed to have been attained, but which is now given, by the presem letter, in the form understood to be most agreeabie to the Ameri can government, my instructions are prospec tive ; they look to substituting for notion- ol good understanding, erroneously entertained, prac icil stipulation- on which a real rec •nedb t-.on of all differences may be substantial:; foun ded—and they authorise me, not 10 renew pr posais which have already been declared hen to be unacceptable, but to receive and discus my proposal made on the [.act of the Unite: States, and eventually to conclude a convention between the two countries, it is not, of course intended to call upon inc to state as a prcl mir ary to négociation, what is the whole extent o. '.hose ins ructions; they must as I have before said, remain subject to my own discretion, uti'.i 1 am able to apply them to the overtur s, which I may have the how of receiving bom you.

[Received at the Department of State, oa the 11th Nov. 1809] Air. Oakley is desired by Mr. Jackson to say to 1 1.e secretary ol Sate : That Mr. Jackson has seen with mu r h regret that facts which have been his duty to state in his '-fficiul correspondence, har e been deemed bv the American government I to afford a sufficient motive for breaking off an important négociation and lor putting an end to all communication whatever with the minister charged by his sovereign with that négociation so interresling to both na tions and on one point of which an answer has not even been returned to an officiai and written overture. One of these facts alluded to has been ad as mitted by the Secretary of State himself in h.s letter of the 19«h Out. viz. that the three conditions forming the substance oi .Mr. Erskine's original instruction were The submitted to him by that gentleman, other, viz. that that instruction is the on ly one m which the conditions were r rt '* scribed by Mr. Krskine t.ir the conclusion of an arrangement on the matter to which it related, is known to Mr, Jackson by the instructions which he has himself receiv ed. In stating these facts and in adhering to them, as his duty imperiously enjoined him ken to do, Air. Jackson could not imagine that offense would be taken at it by the Ameri that can government, as most certainly none could lie intended on his parr ; hut since he has l -een informed the Secretary of state - that no farther communications will he re ceived from him, he conceives that he has no alternative that is consistant writ what is due to the King's dignity, but to with of draw altogether from the seat of the Ame rican government, and await the arrival ol his majesty's commands upon the un looked for turn which has thus been given to his affairs in this country. by Air. Jackson means to make New-York the place of his residence. Washington, 13th November, 1809. in From the A (Allouai lateUigettctr, Our readers have now before them the whole correspondence that has passed between the secretary of state and Mr. Jackson, and are competent to judge for themselves on tiic con duct ot both parties. The"? documents are so satisfactory in elucidating the spirit with which Mr. Jack-on commenced his ca reer as to require little comment. It may, however, not be altogether useless to submit a few re marks. Before these are offered, the public will pardon our saving a Jew o„h in some measure persona! to ourselves. The statement of the grounds of the rupture with Mr. Jack son, as given in the National Intelligencer of the 1 3th inst. although received with implicit confidence by the mass of the nation, and even by a great majority of the federal panv, lias been assailed by two or three of the prints de voted to Britain with a profligate contempt of truth, and in terms felt by us to be totally unworthy of notice. This paper having never intentionally mutated a fact, or, so far as is re collected, unintentionally mistated any impôt - ant measures of the government, and having inviuiubly considered it a duty to repair any m stake into which it may have inadvertently lalien, it was not detuned at all necessary to re hut calumnies, which it was foreseen would have an ephemeral existence, and on! v serve to debase their authors. The uociiTvit lit s are now in the hands of every one, who will sec that the statement given in this print is most of scrupulously laillilul, and that so far from ag to gravating the tenor of Mr. Jackson's letters, ii in fact, omitted much harsh matter, noticed concisely only such parts as were essential to of give any adequate idea of the t casons that in a duced the executive to refuse to receive anv further communication from hint. iv-tf Ulf iii'li: ;u :!•■>'• un Ui no doubt cun be ;■: ■ f t, ; I pin jp. w . Weave i.erlaiii, at any rate, ibat,. rune t not!Id be lost upon those w lio chci. av-'uii doubt, it is perhaps fortunate th • induct of the Biitish envoy, on this hen:!, till :ys a bold appeal, trot merely to the und«, :on standings, hut likewise to the feelings of the American people, who, it will be seen, Iffe ry other free people, will be even less pa eve tient under insults than injuries. The DIO»-'. important question that naturally flows fiorna perusal of these documents is —had no such obstacle occurred as that which loose from the wanton and usele s language of Mr. Jackson, was the.e the least prospect of the négociation issuing in any arrangement of substantial utili ty ? liven this is no otherwise important, hut by eiifbling us >o undeistand theprecise ground on which we stand, to lead to tire adoption of such measures as shall most effectually guard our interest from the unprincipled outrages notv habitually perpetrated against tlir m. On this enquiry, these facts offer themselves at the very threshold. An arrangement was made between our go vernment and Mr. l-.rskine, " ho had constant ly enjoyed the confidence of Iris government. Th - arrangement was made op terms mii tually equitable and iiher.il ; teims, which gate nothing but what we had a perfect right o. un claim, and deprived tV<-< at Falun of nothing which coul I be beneficial to her. It is not, therefore, unfair 10 infer that the e terms are substantially those on which, and <i. which alone, the American government cun at any time make an arrangement with Grew Britain. The arrangement of Mr. F.rskine concluded on these terms, is disavowed, and we are told by Mr. Jackson that it is disavowed, because they aie such as bis government will not, can not agree to, by whom, he adds, he is not au thor sed to make any proposition to our govern ment so fir as I elates to general concerns. Was the.e, then, under these circumstances, the faintest chance of cone Tiding any satisfac tory arrangement with him ? Let it, moreover, be considered '.hat ;e ar rangement with Mr. Krskine cons.sled of two branches ; one respecting the Chesapeake ; the oilier respecting the general affairs of tne two countries; and that even had ttie terms of the latter been settled, the former st il remained av an insuperable bat tier. For there car be tin d»ubt, that due regulation fur tile nut rag OH the Chesapeake must precede a satisfactory ar rangement of the general concerns. What then were the d eposition and pr.wert sif Mr. Jackson on the affair of the Chesa peake ? Simply these—without offering the least apology for the disavowal of this part of Mr. Erskiue's arrangement, without shewing in how much that arrangement varied from Mr. Erskine's instructions, he declares himself merely empowered to restore the seamen ta ken from the Chesapeake and to make provi sion for the families of the slain, ou coiittilinn that the recognition of the annulling of the president's proc'amation of July 1 8r;~ should precede this stipulation of the British govern and condition be ment. and o >t condition that a right might be re served to claim the disenavge of such cf the restored seamen, and to withhold the piomised bounty from the families of such of tl.e seamen, us were either •' natural born subjects of his majesty or deserters Irom his majesty's service. It must have betn known to the Bri'.i-.lt gov erttmetit that a reparation, clogged by such degrading conditions, never would be accepted by our government, and consequently not ter minate in any arrangements propitious to a sa tisfactory accommodation of the différences be tween the two nations. Had. then, the motmer in which Air. Jcckscn demeaned' himself beett perfectly respectiul, tiie very tirin', of bis in stntctions must have rendered his mission al together abortive. It was our purpose to have gone somewhat more fully into this subject ; but the extensive view taken in the article in our preceding, co lumns induces us here for the present to close our remarks.

Mr. T. en tered at length into this subject, arguing gener the ally, that if the British government had a right cred to prohibit any of our trade because it washer interest to do so, we had the same right to his consult our interest in prohibiting any of their til trade, if England, he said could order out our most vessels into her ports and force them to pay a li their cense to trade, we could with equal justice turn her vessels into our ports, and force them to pay a license. Although he expected these resolu of tions would meet with opposition, it could scarce least royal ly tie supposed that their adoption would lead to hostilities; because they weic merely retaliatory, and rested on the same hasis as the decrees and edicts of the powers which they were intended tlie to affect [England and Fiance.] He thought it and would readily be perceived, that these resolu tions had particular reference tu the trade tj the and Rrazlls and South America. After some fur ther observations, Mr. Troup read the resolutions as follow : Resolved, That it is expedient to authorize of the president by law to instruct the command the ers of armed vessels of the U. States, to stop and Ining into the port of the same, all ships or vessels with their cargoes, the property of the subjects of the king of Great Britain, or of of the emperor of Franco, hound to ports other than those within the dominions or colonies of either. Resolved, That it is expedient further to au thorize by law the detention of all ships and ssels with their cargoes, the property of the VC subjects of the king of G. Britain, until tlie duties to be regulated and ascertained by law, shall be first le . ted and collected upon the goods and nteichandize whereof the said ships or ves sels shall be laden or tariff therein presciihcd, to and until the said ships or vessels shall have received due licence to depart. Resolved, That it is expedient further to au thorize by law the detention of all ships or vessels with their cargoes, the property of tlie subjects of the emperor of F.ancc brought within the ports of the U.

Resolved, That an etd vnlo'em duty of he levied and collected on all goods, wares and merchandize of British produce and man ufacture. Resolved , That it is expedient to authorize the president, on paying of the duties authori sed to he levied and collected on the goods la den on boaid vessels the property of the sub jects of the king of Great Britain forthwith to grant license to such vessels to depart and pro ceed to the port of original destination without further hindrance or molestation. After some further observations to shew that these resolutions were more hostile towards France than G. Britain, since the vessels of the latter were licensed to depart while those of the farmer would be detained, Mr. Troup obser ved that in order to give every member an op portunity to consider the resolution«, he mo ecd that they he printed and ordered to lie on Agreed to. the table.

An Old Revolutionist, I FOR THE GAZETTE. Omnia suo tempore ficrcgcnda. THE present times are fraught with events— sufficient, to fill with astonishment, those most accustomed to reflect on the revolutionary chan ges of the world. In no period does history speak of days so indicative—oi great and important changes.— in the present emperor ot France, \vc see re plete, talents, necessary to the greatest events. If we trace the various movements of this war rior and politician, we see them most evidently guided by the hand of destiny. If we advert to those times when his genius first dawned, and contrast them with the present, we behold chan ges beyond our weak conceptions. Europe, which a few years back contained kings ami kingdoms, proud even as Rome her self, is now humbled, or rather struck from the the map. Napoleon, guided lay Proivdence, m his conflicts, has acted with prudence. 'Tis not my intention to say his own views ; most pure We must view him as a man endowed with the greatest talents ; possessing every qualification into effect the inscrutable de necessary to carry as Thc late coalition opened signs of Providence. field to display his great and warlike ge a new nius. Austria, as though blinded to her own interest, once more repaired to the banks of tlie Danube, to decide her fate. Scarce had her arms glittered in the field, or lier dt urns sounded the unhappy contest, than she was humbled at the feet of France. Bonaparte, though ambi 1 tious, cannot be deemed cruei in his conquests. Wherever his arms have been victorious, we see the the arts and sciences introduced.

Those v. ho have tears r.f this kind, can- for not view in the proper'light the revolving clvn- apply ges of time. Napoleon has net yet fulfilled his rate important mission.

These may appear conquests attended with if ti'.c greatest dilficulties. But the superior geni us of the emperor, aided by a powerful ally, is adequate to the greatest events. If we look at tlie p-.st, we may in some degree judge of tlie future. One battle, in the late contests, lias ing decided the fate of nations. And, when we reflect upon tlie important changea of those anticipated conquests, we me led to believe it will open a new fluid for the wisdom of tlie pr«" nt day.

DOCUMENTS, Which accompanied ike Missaac of (he President of the United States» Mr. Smith to Mr. Pinkney. Department of stale, Nov. 23, 180 '). Sir— My letters in the correspondence with Mr. Jackson, already transmitted to yon, sufficient lyevince the disappointment that was felt, on finding that he had not been charged to make to this government either the frank explana tions or the liberal propositions which the oc casion manifestly required. Instead of this ob vious course of proceeding, it was in the outset perceived, that his object was to bring us to re sume the subjects of the arrangement of April in a way, tint would imply that we were aware that the arrangement was not binding on his government because made with knowledge on our part that Mr. Erskine had no authority to make it, and thus to convert the responsibility .of his government for the disavowal into a re proach on this for its conduct in the transaction disavowed. In the first instance it was deem ed best rather to repel his observations argu mentatively than to meet them as an offensive insinuation. This forbearance had not the ex pected effect of restraining him from a repeti tion of the offence. And even on his further insinuations nothing more was done than to premonish him of ttie inadmissibility of so in decorous a course of proceeding. This also being without effect, nothing remained but the step finally taken. And there was the less he sitation in shutting the door to further oppor tunities for insulting insinuations, as the dis closures he had made anti the spirit of his dis cussions had so entirely shut it to the hope of ttny favorable result from his mission. I will not dwell on his reluctance to give up the uncertainties of verbal for the precision of written discussion ; nor on the manner or the time of his denial that he had given any room at all for a statement which in order r.o guard against the misconceptions incident to verbal conferences, I had placed before him in wri ting, with a request that he would point out any inaccuracies, and to which he did not Own object otherwise than by intimating that he could not have made the statement with the par ticular view which set mal to he supposed. Nor will I dwell on the various instances irt which partial or inconsistent views ol'lhe subject have taken place of its real merits. But it may not be amiss to make some observations on the correspondence as it relates to the justification of hit government in having disavowed the act of his predecessor. With respect to the orders in council, the ground of the disavowal is the difference between the arrangement and the printed dispatch of Mr. Canning to Mr. Erskine of the 23d Janu ary. According to this dispatch then the ar rangement failed in three points. 1st. In not relinquishing the trade of the United States with enemies colonies. With respect to this point it is not necessary at this time to discuss the right of that trade. It is sufficient to remark, 1st. that as the trade Is admitted to have become, in the view of G. Britain, of little practical importance, why has it been made a ground of Hie disavowal, and, «specially, as important considerations only could upon principles of public law have justi fied a measure of so serious a character ? 2d. that as the colonial trade is ft subject no wise concerned either with the ordets in council or with the affair of. the Chesapeake, why has it been permitted to frustrate an arrangement re ■x THE DELAWARE. GAZETTE. VOL, l.j WILMINGTON. WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 13 NO. 46 1809. Î Ming to those subjects; and to those only ■ 3d« that as this condition is allowed to have ori ginate! in supposition, that it would be agree able to the American government, why has it been persisted in after the error was made known by the representation of Mr. Kvskiivt to hts government that neither this nor the other conditions of dispatch of the 23d Janua ry were attainable here ? Sd. AmÄer pfcint in the dispatch, and not in the arrangement, is that the British navy might capture our trade to ports prohibited by the United States. This condition appears to have had its origin in a mistake of your meaning in a conversation with Mr. Canning, as noted by yourself, and in an inference thence deduced os to the dis position of this government. But this double mistake must have been brought to light in tituc to have heen corrected in the new mission. In tit ging it Mr. Canning lus taken a ground, forbidden by those principles of decorum, which regulate and mark the proceedings of governments towads each other. In his dis patch the condition is stated to be for the pur pose of securing the bona fide intention «of America to prevent her citizens from trading with France and certain other powers, in other words, to secure a pledge to that effect against the mala fide intention of the United States. And this dispatch too was authorised robe communicated in extenso to tiie govern ment of which such language was used.— Might it not have been reasonably expected that such a condition and such observations would at least on such an occasion have been given up by a government willing to smooth the way to an amicable settlement of existing differences? In his zeal to vindicate his government, Mr. Jackson too has attempted a gloss on this most extraordinary idea of calling on a foreign sov ereignty, not indeed to make laws for us, but what is equivalent in principle, to supply a supposed inability to execute them. He calls such an interposition of his government, not an execution of the law of congress, but of a compact binding as a public law on both parties and which both would have a common interest in seeing duly executed. On his own princi ples there ought to he a reciprocity not only in the execution of the compact, but in the obli gation and interest resulting from it. Besides where there is a reciprocity in compacts be tween nations touching attributes of sovereign ty, there is always as much of sovereignty gained as is parted with, so'that there is no loss nor indignity on either side. 3. The remaining point of the dispatch, not secured by the arrangement, is that which re secured by the arrangement, is that which re to quired that whilst our prohibitory laws should he repealed as to Great Britain, they should he to left in force as to France and the powers adopt ing or acting under her decrees. This is the condition which alone properly belongs to the subject, and it is to be remarked in the first place that the British project, of which this condition makes a part, contempla ted two things in their nature incompatible;— one a repeal of the prohibitory acts os to Great Britain, without waiting for the conclusion of a regular treaty, the other a pledge or engagement for their continuance as to tiie other powers.— Now, from the nature of our constitution, which in this particular ought to have been attended to by the British government, it is manifest that the executive authority could have given no such pledge, that the continuance ol the prohibitory acts being a subject of legislative consideration, could not have been provided for until the meet ing of tite legislature, and that the condition could not therelore but have failed, either in the immediate renewal of commerce with Great Britain, or in the immediate engagement that it should not he renewed with France. The Bri tish government ought to have acquiesced in, and indeed ought to have been satisfied with the attainment of the important object of an imme diate repeal of our prohibitory laws and with the consideration that the other object, not im mediately attainable, was unnecessary at the time, because the prohibition as to France was then in force, and because there was every rea son to infer not only from this fact, but from the spirit of the communications made from time to time and from the overtures before submitted to the British government, that without a repeal of the French decrees, our prohibitory laws would be conttnued in force against France, and espe. dally in the case of a repeal of the British or ders, which would necessarily render a continu of tiie French decrees doubly obnoxious. ance But if on this head doubts could have been entertained, instead of rejecting the arrange ment, ought not the repealing act on our part to have been met with a suspension at least of the orders in council, until it could have been seen whether the non-intercourse law would or would not have been continued against France. Such a suspension could not bave given, in any point of view, more advantage to the United States than was given to Great Britain by the repeal, which bad taken place on their part. If this reasonable cotitse could not have been substituted for the disavowal, why was not a final disavowal suspended with a proposition that the arrangement would be executed by Great Britain, in the event of a compliance on the part of the United States with the condition requi red as to France ? I *tn not unaware, yon may be told, that the 1 «on-intercourse law of the United States did n':t extend to. Holland, though so intimately con nected with France, and so subservient to her ns decrees against neutral commerce. It would not be improper on this occasion to been observe, that this objection can he the less urged by Great Britain, as she has herself never in her nor, allcdged retaliations adhered to the principle on to which they were founded. Thus site has from the date of them, until true very lately, directed them against the American trade even to Russia; although Russia had never a adopted the French decrees, nor otherwise vio lated her neutral trade with Great Britain. So in her order of April last, she has discriminated to not only between the countries devoted to Prance by the tics of blood, and other powers, hut between Holland, Westphalia and Naples, in enforcing hen prohibitory order against the first, and not against the two last. Whilst therefore she finds it expedient to make these 4th distinctions, she ought to presume-that we too he may perceive equal propriety in the distinctions we have made. But it may be of move importance here to compare the British order in council of April last with the arrangement of April, made by not Mr. Etskine. It will thence be seen how little the is the real difference, and how trivial it is when j compared to the extensive end serious conse ill quences of the disavowal. Under the order in council of April, all the ports uf Europe except France, including tite kingdoms of Italy and Holland with their de pendencies, arc opcnetl to our commerce. Under the arrangement of April, combined ed with our act of non-intercourse, ail the putts of Europe, except France and Iter dependencies, including the kingdom of Italy, would have been opened to our commerce. The difference then is reduced merely to Hol is land, and that nation is reduced to the difference between a direct trade to the ports of Holland and an indirect trade to Holland, through the neighboring ports of Tonningen, Hamburgh, Bremen and Emden. he Now, as the iniuring of the enemies of Great Britain is the only avowed object of her inter dicting order agairst our trade, let a computation be made of the effect which this difference be tween the order in cot ncil and the arrangement could possibly have in producing such an inju ry. And then let the question be candidly an swered whether, laying aside ail considérations of right and justice, sufficient inducements in could have been found in that result for rejecting the arrangement, and for producing the c querit embarrassments, as well to Gicat Britain siti as to the United States. If it be necessary, as Mr. Jackson has stated, to set bounds to a spirit of encroachment and universal dominion, which would bind all tilings to its own standard, anil to falsify by honorable and manly resistance an annunciation that all Europe is submitting by degrees, the effort must be feeble indeed which is to be found irt the in convenience accruing to the formidable toe front the operation of this order in council, and espe cially when we combine with it the strange phenomenon of substituting for the lawful trade phenomenon of substituting for the lawful trade of the United States, a trade of British subjects, contrary to the laws of the adverse party, ant! amounting without a special license in the eye of British law to high treason. Thus much for the orders in council. What has taken place with respect to the case of the Chesapeake will equally engage your attention. You will perceive that throughout the early stages of the correspondence, this ease wa9 im properly confounded with, in others improperly separated from, that of the orders in council ; and particularly that pains had been taken by Mr, Jackson to substitute verbal and vague ob servations on the disavowal of this part' of the arrangement for an explicit and formal explana tion, such as was obviously due. It will be seen also that when finally brought to the point, he referred for a justification of the disavowal to the departure of Mr. Erskine from his instruc tions without shewing what those instructions were, and to allusions to an expression in the arrangement without giving to his meaning the distinctness prerequisite to a just reply. It appears, however, that he lays great stress on the proposal enclosed in his letter of the27th October, as at once indicating the departure of Mr. Erskine from his instructions, ar.d as con taining the conditions on the basis of which he was ready to enter on an adjustment. And from a note from the setre'ury of the British legation, it appears that he lias complained of not having received an answer to this proposal, as he had before complained that no answer had heen given to hts verbal disclosures on this head in his interviews with me. With respect to his intimations in conversati on, as they were preceded by no proper assign ment of the reasons for not tiavmg executed the original adjustment, it cannot be necessary to remark that no such notice, as he wished to ob tain, could with any sort of propriety have been taken of them. With respect to his written projects, it will suffice to remark : 1st. That beside his reluctant and indistinct explanation of the disavowal of the original ad justment, he did not present his proposal until he had made such progress in his offensive situ ation as made it proper to await the issue of the reply about to be given to it, and that this issue had necessarily put a stop to further comutuniea 1 dons. 2d!y. That although he had given us to un« derstand that the ordinary credentials, such alone ns he had delivered, could not bind his govern ment in such a ca~-r, his proposal had neither been preceded by nor accompanied with the St bibition of other commission or full powei nor, indeed, has he. ever given sufficient reason to suppose that he had any such full power to It is exhib t in relation to this particular case, true that ir. his letter of the 23d October, lie has stated an author.tv eventually (o conclude, a convention between the t,vo countries.-— Without adverting to the ambiguity of the term cvoilua/lji with the mark of emphasis attached to it, and to other uncertainties in the pltraseo iogy, it is clear that the authority referred t°, whatever it may he, is derived from instructions subject lo ids men discretion : and not from a patent commission, such as might be properly railed for. It is true also that in his letter of the 4th of November, subsequent to this proposal, he says he was possessed uf a full power in due form lor the expies-, purpose of concluding a treaty or convention. But it still remains uncertain, whether by the treaty or convention to which it related, was not meant an eventual or provisional treaty on the general relations between the two countries j without any reference to cite case of the Chesa peake. Certain it is mat the British government ill former like cases, as will be seen by tiie ad justment of that pint of the affair at Nootka Sound, which is analogous to this case, did not consider any such distinct power as necessary I nor is there the slightest ground for supposing that Mr. Erskinc, although confessedly instruct ed to adjust this very cats of iii£ Chesapeake, was furnished with any authority distinct from. his credential letter. That Mr. Jack: on has any such commission is the less to be supposed, as it is but barely possible, that possessing it, he should not on eome occasion or in some form, have used a language susceptible of no possible doubt on this point. But proceeding to the proposal itself, it is to he kept in mind that the conditions forming its basis, are the very conditions for the deviating from which Mr. Erskine's adjustment was disa vowed. Mr. Jackson, if not on others, is on titis point explicit. " I now add (says he) that the deviation consisted in not recording in the official document signed here the abroga tion of the president's proc!-matiou of the 2d July, 180,", a3 well as the two reserves specified in the piper of metricranda enclosed in my offi cial letter to you of the 27th ult." Considering then the conditions in the propo siti as an ultimatum, in what tight are we eom peiied to view such an attempt to repair the outrage committed on the frigate Chesapeake, and to heal the disappointment produced by a disavowal of a previous equitable reparation ? It is impossible on such an occasion not to recall the circumstances which constituted the character of tiie outrage to which such an ulti matum is now applied. A national ship pro ceeding on an important service, was watched by a superior naval force enjoying at the same time the hospitality of our ports, was followed and scarcely out of our waters when she was, after an insulting summons, attacked in a hos tile manner ; and tite ship so injured as to re quire expensive repairs, the expedition frustra ted, a number of tite crew killed and wounded, several carried into captivity, and one of them put to death, under a military sentence. The three seamen, though American citizens, and therefore on every supposition detained as wrongfully as the ship would have detained, have notwithstanding remained in captivity be tween two and three years; and, it may he ad ded, after it has long ceased to be denied that they are American citizens. Under these circumstances we are cafGJ upon to ransom the < 'es. 1st. By acknowledging that a precautionary proclamation, justified by events preceding the outrage, by the outrage.itself and by what im mediately followed it, was unjustifiable, and that a repeal of it was properly a condition pre cedent to a reparation for the outrage. And this requisition is repeated, too, after such oil acknowledgement had been uniformly asserted by this government to be utterly inadmissible, and, what is particularly rcmarkaUe, at a time when the proclamarion, as is well understood, was no longer in force. The occasion obvious ly invited a silent assumption of the existing fact, and this would have excluded the difficul ty heretofore found tobe insuperable. 2d. By throwing into complete oblivion the conductof the officer answerable for the mur derous transaction, with a knowledge too on our part, that instead of being punished or even brought to trial, he has ljéçn honoured by his government with a new and'inure important command. 3d. By admitting a right or. the part of Great Britain to claim a discharge from our service of deserters generally, and particularly of her natural born subjects, without excepting such as had been naturalized in due form under the laws of the United Slates. it has not been explained, whether it was meant, as the universality of the te. m " deser ter" would import, to include American citi zens who might have left the British service. But what possible consideration could have in duced the British government to expect that the United States could admit a principle, that, would deprive our naturalized citizens of the

If an Ameuran seaman has resided in Great Britain, or has mar ried therein, of has accepted a bounty in her na val service, his discharge therefrom, on toe regu lar application to the British government, has been invariably refused by its board ot admiralty. This 1 state on the authority ot the official re it is, therefore, ports m; le to lliis department, truly astonishing that, with a knowledge of thc?e fjets surh a pretension should have ticen advanced stall, but above ail that it should have been made a sme t/uo non to an act ct plain jus tice, already so long delayed. This is the more to be regretted ; as the omen docs not tavor the belief we wou J willingly cherish, tlr-u no pre determination exhtsin the councils of his Bri tannic majesty irreconcilable to an amicable ar rangement of an affair, which, affecting 50 deep ly the honor of the United States, must precede a general regulation of the mutual interests of the two countries. Ai.er toe corresnondence with Mr. Jackson was terminated, two notes, of which copies are herewith sent to you. Were presented to me in the name and by the hand of Air. Oakley, the British Secretary of Legation, The first requested * document, having the effect of a special passport or salc guatd to Mr Jacksau and his family dur As ing their stay in the United States, the laws of this country allowan unobstruct ed passage through every part of it, and with the law ol nations, equally in force, il eir families, protect public ministers and in all their privileges, such an application was regarded as somewhat singular. l h-re was no hesitation, however, in furnishing certificate, of bis public character, and to a made he m'gat chuse. But be used in any ' reasons as* what surprised most was me .-. The insuit signed for the application, he alluded to was then, lor jbe first time brought to the knowledge ol this govern ment.

Way , It is needless to remark that an) represen. It is needless to remark that an) represen. which the subject would have instantly talion on ty'« received every proper aiteiuion. which a protection Another ground on any was asked for, is the supposed tendency ot have the language ot our newspapers to excite as popular violence on Mr. Jacksons pet son. mi Had he been longer and better acquainted 1 with the habits and spit its of the American people, he would probably never l.nvc on If prote. tertained an apprehension ot that sort, ted he meant to animadvert on the tree language of the newspapers, he might justly be re liom minded that o .ir laws, as those ol lws coun* bounds to that freedom : that the Imp?, try,set freedom of Bit ish prints, however great suit with respect to public characters of the U* lieved nited States, has never been a topic ot com ami plaint, and supposing the latitude of the A merican press to exceed that of Great Britain, the differenc e is infinitely less in this respect between the two, than between the British press and that of the other na The tions of Europe. The second note seems to be essentially intended as a justification of the conduct of Mr. Jackson in that part of the corres pondence which has given umbrage. If he intended it as a conciliatory advance, he ought not to have preceded it by a demand of passports, nor by the spirit or the man ner in which that demand was made. He was his object, to have ought in fact,if such in the place substituted an explanation of his reply to my premonitory letter. But Whether he had one or other, or both ol these objects in view, it wa, necessary for ly him to have done mure than is attempted iu this paper. It was never objected to him that he had stated it as a fact that the three propo sitions in question had been submitted to by Mr. Erskine, nor that he stated it, me made known to him by the instruction ol as Mr. Canning, that the instruction to Mr. Erskine containing those three conditions was the only one from which his authority was derived to conclude an arrangement in the matter to which it related. Throb, jectlo-- was that a knowledge of this restric tion of the authority of Mr. Erskine was imputed to this government, and the repe tition of the imputation even after it had been peremptorily disclaimed. This was so gross an attack on the honor and veraci. tv of the government as forbid all further Core whs ue communlcations front turn. vertheless taken at the same time to leave the door open for such as might be made throughvany other channel, however little the probability that any satisfactory commu would be received through any mcations channel here. To the other enclosures I add a printed ci-cular copy of a paper purporting to Ire a letter from Mr. Jackson to tire British con This paper suls in the United States, As its contents entire* sneaks for itself, ly correspond with the paper last referred to, as they were unnecessary for the osten sible object ofihe letter,which was to make known Air. Jackson's change ol residence, and as the paper was at once put into cir culation, it can only be regarded as a virtual address to the American people ol addressed to a representation previously (heir government—-a procedure which can not fail to he seen in its true light hv his sovereign.

You are particularly instructed at the same time in malting lhu3e communications to do it in a manner that will leave no doubt of the undiminishetl desire ol the United States to unite in all the means the best calculated to establish the relations of the two coun tries on the solid foundations of justice, ot friendship and of mutual interest.

L* Füll THE GAZETTE am.

Admitting then that arbitrators are a sub j stitute for a jury, and the award in place of a verdict, it will follow,'.hat no appeal what ever ought'to be from the award more than the verdict ; neither is there any in cases of arbitration or reference where both parties consent to the rule. Dut the law in Penn sylvania having given the right of reference o one party' and rendered it compulsory on the other party, a very serious question a rises how far it is either constitutional or , sound policy to render the award now as obligatory ns where both gave consent.— Most ol tlie state constitutions have a de claration in favor oi trial by jury, and at the same time have provided for erecting courts of chancery, where no jury is em ployed, although the most important busi ness is there decided at the request or suit of one party and compulsory with the other, which is equally a privation of trial by jury with reference : from whence it would ap pear that the true meaning of the constitu tion is, merely in criminal cases to secure the jury trial. But admitting dure is no constitutional impediment to the reference Jaw without appeal—i i it safe and the best policy to make the award as binding as the verdict of a jury (which is the case where both parties consent to refer) ? This ques tion being of doubtful solution, seeing a buse may be practiced on either side j that is, if the appeal he given, it will he used for delay and may he mafiag. d by the pio fession so a3 to destroy the reference law — while, on the oiher hand, if there he no appeal, art ful parties may practice upon live sveakness or corruptibility of arbitrators to do injustice, which the right of appeal will deter. It seems desirable to fail upon seme middle ground which might obviate all these difficulties. The middle ground might he found, I presume, in allowing an appeal to a jury trials That is, let the sheriff of said coun ty h.'.d a monthly cou-1 specially to hear ty h.'.d a monthly cou-1 specially to hear appeals, and have a pnnnsl of jurors ready as at the present terms. By this course the parties would not be divested of the trial by jury. The influence of the court would he obviated. The secret manage ment of anomies would be ex.iuded—the temptation to delay would here-moved, and a fair public trial, with l'ntle delay or e:> pence, afforded to such as were reaiiy ag\. grieved. It will not he pretended this plan is tin. susceptible of objection—that is impissL Artful me.) whose interests are deep . ble. ly affected would find fault with a highway to heaven. It is sufficient if the disinter . csted can find in this plan such an adminis tration of justice as will afford the best se- curity for property with least expence and delav, and without trenching on the letter or spirit of the constitution. Candour and iruili will warrant us to he assured of die direct and indirect oppositi on of the profession, including bench, bar and every one who receives money from court business. The people have no right either to complain of such opposition o expect Otherwise from a prof salon whose 'merest compels them to resist an impend, ing injury. Dot the (.copie whose candour thus admits ilieir obtying the dictate oi in terest, ought to have so much suspicion of their motives as to turn a deaf ear to all they say against it. The people should remember, that the business of a lawyer is make the worse appear the better to CiuDc," and thceiore to be guid d by them in establishing a system of administciing justice li as contrary to reason as to let one party decide the cause on trial. Neither would it be Ic-s injudicious to give '.'ne dis satisfied party in the refertnee an appeal to '■a corps of enemies to the pi.tn, which would not only he to place ihe appellee at ihe mer . >:v of a hostile party, but subject the system itself to desiructioi .It cannot he this time a question, whether the reference is a good. s\ stem of ïdministering justice, or not. That point must be unquestionably decided in the uni. '■ -rsa! approbation of arbitration among the best, the most peaceable and the mo.t pious where both parues agree. The only question now pending is, the practicability of rendering it equally suitable to society and compulsory on one party. All reason ing on this point must he subject to expe. ntiice, which alone can establish the fact.

FOR THE GAZETTE Mn. Jones, IN your Gazette, a writer, who signs himself " A Person Injured," has called in question the conduct of the commanding officer of the 2d company of the 2d regiment of the first brigade. With respect to his first charge against the officer for not : having given notice to all the rae-n bers composing this company, by a proper non-commissioned officer, it is groundless. The district com plained of, over which the command ing officer presides, was established in 1793. The members were regu. larly enrolled and all notified what the officer was to do annually thereafter ; that he was to add to his roll the names of such as had at'ained the age of eighteen years, within the last year, and likewise all such as came to reside within the district, and to notify them of their enrollment with out delay, by a proper non commis sioned officer, by whom such notice may be proved. The second charge is. that the commanding officer did appointa court martial to try the de linquents who were absent, on the I I same day that he paraded ; that this court martial so appointed d.d pro ceed to adjudge the absentees guilty of a fine ; and further, that the court did hold tho-ir meeting after night.— If this should be the fact, that the court martial did trv those who were absent on the last parade day, and that the court lu Id their in that the court lu Id their meeting- in the night, the piucecdings are not in conformity to law. Ten days notice must be given of all courts* martial, after the oii'encc has been committed, for the party to appear. The law permits the party to prove that he was absent from the parade by reason of sickness of himself or some of his family, that required his personal at tendance. lie has also a right to de mand the attendance of witnesses in his behalf, to prove what the law per mits him to offer as a legal excuse.— He has also a right to have the wit nesses fined if they refuse to attend on the court martial, after be ing re gularly summoned. He has also the permission to prove that he was pre a vented from attending before the court martial by reason ol sickness, or otlu r unavoidable accident. Should the party neglect or refuse to appear before the court martial to make his defence, after having ten clays notice, he is to be adjudged guilty of the charge exhibited against him. It cannot he supposed that the officers composing this company arc ignorant of the law. I can hardly believe that the commanding officer will approve of proceedings not warranted by law. If the court martial has acted as it is charged, 4 their proceedings are ille gal,' and no doubt will be disapproved of by the officerappointing the court, and another court martial and judge advocate appointed. There are no doubt in this district persons who arc desirous to evade the law, and there are many who would be proud to de feat the provisions for a well organi zed militia. I am in hopes that the officers composing the 2d company will be vigilant in their duty, and at the same time that they require the strict performance of the law by the members of the company, that they 'Vill not cömvnif any infringements on j the rights of the citizens. It is the : duty of every good iveli wisher to the ; " peace and independence of the Uni ted States,' to see the militia iveli of trained, according to the discipline prescribed by Congress. In making these observations I do not undertake as to State the proceedings to have been as charged again.-,, the officers bv " 11 ij (irtti ersen" I have en- ' , , T . ir. (lta \0 .cl to s . te wtiUt 1 conceive is ; the duly of 'he officer, as well as the ! citizens of his district—the law hav ing prescribed certain penalties on to either being found guilty of not hav ing performed their several duties. A FRIEND To a vieil (h'icjji/intd Aliiitia. FOR Till: GAZETTE, M;t. Jos IN ycur Gazette of the 6th in slant, a writer on the adoption of a : reference law addresses himself to the advocates of the system and requests their attention to what he deems the most essential point, the right of ap peal. lie observes that he would grant a second or third reference , by paying all cost incident thereto, but would in no case admit of appeals to court ; lbr he remarks that if appeals to courts are admitted, it would in crease litigations and destroy the very intention of the law. Will it not be necessary, to carry this mode propo sed by " A Friend" into execution, to call a convention to alter the con stitution of government for this state ? loes the writer conceive that government state or loes the writer conceive that an act of tire legislature of the state can annul and make void the privileges guaranteed by the constitution to the citizens ol this state ? When the wri I ter will satisfy the public that such a I law as he proposes can be carried in to effect without abridging the con stituent privileges of the citizens of the state, he may have advocates fur his system; but until he shall make it appear more clear than he has in his communication that the legislature possess the power, even in suits at law, to conlroul the courts of justice, in hearing uppeals or correcting er rors in proceedings tu law, I shall be inclined to believe that no auch pow er or authority is vested in the Gene ral Assembly of this state. And I am further of opinion that but few persons in this state are of the same opinion with " A Friend," that pro vided the legislature had the power, they would deem it wise or prudent to controul the courts of justice in their power of correcting the errors of juries or referees. Perhaps " A Friend," in his further communica tion on this subject, will favor the public with the draft of his bill, which lie is desirous of having enacted into A CITIZEN. a law.

Sir, 1 have the honor to acknowledge tiie receipt of your letter of the <)th inst. informing mr that you had just received a letter from Mr. Pinkney, inclosing a printed paper, purporting to he a copy of a dispatch to me from Mr. Canning, which states, among other things, • from the report of your conversations with Mr. Madison, Mr. Gallatin and Me. Smith, it appears.' _ ■' " 1st. That tft'&iAnipricajBi.-grtVernrfik'nt is pupated, in tire evttw of his m.rjesty'a. con senting to withdraw the orders in ciuncil of January and November 1 807, to withdraw cou temporatieously on its part, the interdiction of its liatbors to ships of war, and all non-inter course and non-importation acts, so far as re spects Great B'ita'.n, leaving them in Jure-. with respect to France and the powers w idch adopt, or set under, lier decrees. 2d. That America is willing to renounce dti ling tbc present war, the pretension of cany-1 mg on, in time of war, all trade with the ene mies colonies, from which she was c.xuut;::! during peace. Ily. Great Britain, for the purpose of se u curing the operation of the embargo, and tiie hona JiJe intention of America to prevent lier citizens from trading with i'rauce and the pow ers ado; ting and acting tinder the French dc I créés, is to lie considered as being at liberty to H capture all such American vessels as may be ■ found alterejiting [to trade] with the ports of I any of those powers, without wit ch security ■ iur the observance of the embargo, the raising I it nominally with respect to Great Britain, alone I would, in fact, ra se it, with respect to all the I world." ■ The explanations which you request of me I upon that subject, shall be given with candor— ■ and I will proceed, accordingly, to lay before ■ you, an abstract of the communication w hich I I laid before i.is majesty's government relative ■ to the unofficial conversations which 1 had held I with Mr. Madison (then secretary of slate) I Mr Gailalin, and yourself, at the time, and ■ upon the occasion, alluded to by his majesty's I secretary of state (Mr. Canning) in that part ■ oi his instructions to me, of which you inform ■ ute, you have received a piinted copy from I Mr. Pinkney. ■ Upon relet ting to my dispatches, addressed ■ to his majesty's goveininent, of the ad and ■ 'Bit December last, in which these communi 9 rations are tietailed, I conclude tiiat tiie con ■ versations alluded to, must have been held some ■ days previous to that period and were to the H tollowing elicet— ■ Mr. Aladisnn (then secretary of state) is re ■ presented by me to have urged vatious ar<'u I ments, tending io prove that the U. S. had ex I tried all their efforts to persuade the French ■ government »<> withdraw their unjust restric ■ » on» upon neutral commerce,and that recourse ■ "light have been had to measures of more acti ■ Vl »v and decision against France than mere re I motistrances, but tiiat in the mean time, Great ■ Britain had issued her orders in council, before ■ it was known whether the United States would H wgiuesce m the aggressions of France, anil I '-hei-eiiy rendered it impossible to distinguish ■ "' tween the conduct of the two belligerents, ■ ' V \| o hatl equally commuted aggt vssions against ■ U States. After some observations, Mr. Madison is sta ted by me, at that time to have added, that as the world must lie convinced that Ameiica had in vain taken all the means in her power to ob tain from Great Britain and Eranee a just at tention to her rights as a neutral power by re presentations and remonstrances, that fit ie would be fully justified in having recourse to hostilities with either hclligeient, and that she only hesitated to do so Horn the difficulty ot contending with both —but that she must be driven even to endeav. r to maintain her rights against the two greatest powers in the vvo^d— unless either of them should relax their re strictions upon neutr .1 commerce—in which case, the U. S. would at once side with that power against-rhe other which might commue Us aggressions. That every opinion which he entertained re sp"< tin^ the beat inlc nia country led him to wish that a good midi-rsntnding should take place between Great Biilain end the Unit ed States, and that bethought that the obvious advantages which v.-.u,,' thereby resi.it to both countries were a stifiicierit j.ledge of the si uce lity of his sentiment . These observations, sir, ( bv 1-c.vc to rc nv.uk, were made to me by Mr. MndG ui about a mont!) after the inteili nee hurl her n re ceived in this country of tile rejection by Iris majesty's govern men. of tiie preq it inn made through Mr. Pinkney by the president lor the t moral of the embargo as respected Great Bri ain, up n condition that the orders in cmtti c 1 should be withdrawn as respected the Uni ted States : and his sentiments were as I con ceived, expressed to me in older that I might convey them to his majesty's government, so as to lead to a reconsideration of the proposi tion above mentioned with a view to the adjust ment of the differences upon that subject lie tween the respective countries. But 1 never considered that Mr. Madison meant that the government of tiie U.States would pledge them selves beyond the proposition respect,lur tiie embargo, as above stated—because that was the extent of the power of the president by the constitution of tiie United States. I understood, very distinctly that the obser vations oi the secret..ry ol state were intended to convey an opinion as to what ought and would he tiie courra puiPticd by the United States, in the event ri bis mo'Cbiy's ordern in î oit" cil b ng withdraw.;. ill til,a and opinions, vou con« lilectc-d lroin the tenor of several furred, a w lecit i held with you at that pc con verbal ioii nod. With U-spec-' t ) lue second point, as stated in your letti-r to he contained in a dispatch from Mr. Canning," 1 beg leave to otiei the following etcpUnuttoii : in the course of a private interview I had wr!i Mr. G dlalin, (the secretary of the trea sury) he intimated that the non-intercourse ii was then lik-dy to he passed by tiie Gw t. congr-ss, might he considered as removing portant grounds of difference with two Vc Great üt Bain, viz: the non.importation act, as applicable to her alone, and also the president's proclama i ,n, whereby the ships of Great I!>-i lain were excluded fioin the ports of the Uni te! Stales, while those of France were permit ted to einer —but that by the non-intercourse law, both powers w ere placed on the same foot ing. He d:d not pretend to say that this mea sure had been taken from any motives of coii ; ess.on to G. Britain; but as. in fact, those followed, he conceived they conseci lient might he e nsidvred as removing the two great obstacles to a conciliation. He advaWx-J also to the probability of an adjustment of another important point in dis pute between the two counuies, as he said he knew that it was intended by the United States to abandon the attempt to carry on a trade with the colonies of belligerents in time of war, I which was not allowed in time of peace, and to trust lo being permitted by the French to carry on such trade in peace, so as to entitle tiisin to a continuance of it in time of war. As it may be very material to ascertain what " trade with the colonies of belligerents" was, in my conception, meant by Mr. Gallatin, as intended to be abandoned by the United States, I feel no hesitation in declaring, that 1 suppo sed he alluded to the trade from the colonies of the belligerents direct to their mother country, or to the ports of other belligerents, because the right of such trade had been the point in dispute ; whereas, the right to carry on a trade from the belligerents to the United States had never been called in question, and had been recognized by his ma jesty's supreme court of admiralty ; and the terms even upon which such colonial produc tions might be re-exported from the United States had been formally arranged in a treaty signed in London, by the ministers plenipoten tiary of both countries, which was not indeed ratified by the president of tiie United States ; but was not objected to as to that article of it which settled the terms upon which such trade was to be permitted. Such was the substance, sir, of the unofficial conversations which I had held with Mr. Madi son, Mr. Gallatin and yourself, which 1 did not consider or represent to his majesty's gov ernment as intended with any other view than to endeavor to bring about tiie repeal of the or bu s in con-cil hr shewing that many of the wist »des which had stood in the way of an ami c djle dj list in cut o! the differences between the two comiti es were already removed, and t! uta f t ■ pro..peer esirted of settling wh it re maned; since the United States luni exhibited a détermina ton to res'st die unjust agg-essions upoti lier n iili'ui rights, which was all that v »rear Britain II -,d evt r required ; but I certain ly never received am- assurances from the A tUv-ncun qov.Tnmjiif that they would pledge tbemsd to ado; t the conditions us prelimin u cs, nur did I eve: hold out stick an ex. nss.on io Ins tnjestv's government, having always spited to them that in the event of his tnajes tv -, thinking it ja .t or expedient to.canse h'-s Orders in comteii to be withdrawn that the pro mit U woo d take off tiie etnLar as «cspcctfd , L ind, leaving it in open ;ii ist France r.n. 1 the ; owers v. hicii adonlcd, ir a filed under her decrees ; i g to the u'dlronty v hir.h aocor: s vested in him at that time by the \\ c»jn»rcss tie; U.

It would be unavailing, at the p-esent mo on ol lilt* ment, to enter upon an c.\a;nm j " prelens ons set forth in Mi. Canning's letter of instruction ." (which you are pleased to term) extraordinary.'' 1 consider't, however, to he my duty to de c'ate that, during my neg citui-m with v„ which leti to the conclusion of tii - pi o- i i uir.l agreement, I found no reison to bciievc tint any diilicu'tics would occur in the accompiisli ment of the two former conditions, so far as it was in tue power of the presidetr of the United States to accede to the fust, am' c insistently rv.tii the explanation I have before given to the second po.nt: On the contrary I leceivt if agpa rancen through you, tiiat the presidin' would (as i'ar as it was in uis power) with the comp first condition, anil tiiat there could he no douh. tliçjt th: congress would think it incumbent up t the right of the U. States on them to against such powers as shouid adopt or act un der the decrees of France as soon astheir actual conduct or detenu-nations upon that subject couid be s- enained—but th .tin the mean time, the president hud not the power, and could not undertake to pledge himself in the formal mummer reqaired to 'hat effect. I received airo asnif,,nc<-8 from , tiiat no doubt could he reasonably enti ruined that a u linfucto y arrangement might be made in a tic:i the sühn c.t of tit :nnd condition «y po mentioned in Mr. ti.nniu instructions accotti ing to my explanation of it in the for»coiiig part of this letter, but that it would necessarily f jt m an article of a Ire-r-.- in which the various i tensions of the two col;r.'ricu rhoiiM be :-lt led. The third condition yot, errand.-, V i-l' tinctfy informed me could not be lecog ,• Nl l >v the president, but you a■ i: .I wh. t bad lt weight in my iniu that vom vh<i not tcc \ •ny any great importance fliouiu re at tael l to ; 1: a recognit: ; because it '.Vthilti ■'0 it'iinnp»! nu that a citizen of the United Mates could prefer a complaint to his government on account ol lh; captt re of his vessel while engaged in a trade absolutely interdicted by lite laws of his touii tr y Under these circumstances, therefore, finding that I could not obtain the recognitions specified in Mr. Canning's dispatch ol the 23d of Janua ry (which formed but une part of his instructions to me) in the formal manner t equired, I consid ered that it would be in vain to lay before the government of the United States the dispatch iu question, which I waa at ti/ertn to have done in extenso had I thought proper. But as f had such strong ground for believing that the object of his majesty's government could bo attained, thougn in a different manner, and the spir it, at least, of my several letters of instructions he ful ly complied with, I felt a thorough conviction upon my mind that I should he actii g in con fmmity with his majesty's wishes; and accord ingly, concluded the lute provisions! agreemen on his majesty's behalf with the government of the U. S. The disavowal of his majesty is a painful proof to me that I had formed an erroneous judg ment of his majesty's views and the intention of my instructions; and i have most sevetely to l iment that an act of mine, (though uniment, on allv) should produce any embarrassments lit the relations be! ween the two countries. It is a great consolation to me, however, to per ceive that measures have been „d ipted by both governments to prevent any losses and to obvi ate any inconveniences which might have arisen to the citizens or sul jects of cither Country from a reliance on the fulfilment ofthat provisional agreement ; and 1 cannot but cherish a hope, that a complete and cordial understanding be tween the two cuimn'ics may be effected.

When the clear water» glow in the bushts of even, On the cliff ef the ocean where murmars the breeze, I he maniac hail* the pure breathings of heaven, That bear her wild notes o'er the whispering seas.

Beneath its rude arch till the dawning of morn, Fearless, child of distraction, she lingers alone, While the wind on her locks waves the <lew from the thorn, When she pillows her head on the cold mossy stone. No voice thrilling soft through her labouring breast, Hails in accents of joy the wanderer home : No kind melting sound bids her wild spirit rest. When the cold howling blast her heart pulses be numb.

AevKisvcrf, From the National Intelligencer, EXPOSITION Of tile conduct of the Her. FRANCIS JAMES JACKSON, In his correspondt nee with ROBER T SYIT1I, Enquire, 1 Secretory off State, CONI INUED.) In conclusion, Mr, Jackson confesses in bis letter of the Id'll of October, that lie is not in to promise to tbe government of structed the United States any formal agree men' to be substituted for that wliioh his majesty had been under the necessity of disavowing," and that, as to tbe orders in council, " it is matter of indifference to G. Britain, whether the order in council lie continued, or an arrangement by mutual consent substituted in its room." This, witH his preceding observations, furnished near p! ly a .complete devclopemeiit of the nature and tendency of Mr. Jackson's mission. Thu real nd unqualified interdiction of all trade with the enemy,"he contended to become tin principle declared it to be a doctrine which Great Bri tain would never cease to maintain, admitted that he had no new propositions to make, and that his sovereign, adhering to the spirit of the orders in council, was lotaily indifferent as to the firm, but would by no means relinquish , in other words, if the su'i 'rwre of them ; tin: United States would by compact accede to the ptovisions of the orders, then, indeed, ills Britannic majesty wsuld agree to substitute such compact for the orders in council. So far fiotn this being a repeal of the orders in council, it was a .A maud on the American gov ernment to ratify limit by tan'. At this point of the discussions, the presi dent would have acted pe'ituliy correct in re linquishing all correspondence with Mr. Jack son on the subject of reconciliation. G rent Britain was resolved to maintain her anti-neu tral system, Mr. Jackson had nothing new to oder, he did not even come prepared to make an explanation ; his style of correspondence was supercilious, his ptedominant temper irri tating, and the whole train of his logic repul sive to a good understanding between the two 2. He was, to be sure, if that which countries. he says be true, "directed to rece/vr-and discuss proposals which the secretary of state might be authorised to make to him." in other words, he was to constitute himself a tribunal for de ciding upon the propositions of the American government. He would " receive and discuss proposals," just as the war office or post office of the United States would receive and discuss proposals for supplying the troops with provi sions or for carrying the mails ; and the sum total of his instructions seems to have been to advertise the secretary of state that Mr. Jack son would thus " receive and discuss proposals," and by faintly intimating that he was authori sed " cvintrfally" to conclude a convention, to enticed lie president to bid up for a contract, Mr, Jaiftsotl would not come out forthwith and T fife that would he acceptable to him ; but if Mr. Smith could reach his mark, if he could guess (for it amounts to this.) what the instruc tions of the new envoy were, then Mr. Jack son would unfold the true object of his mission ; lie would condescend to open his port folio and expose his secret. IBs conduct in ibis parti cular is precisely os if a man should say " ! have nothing to offer in behalf of peace, nor can 1, indeed, say exactly what I will agree to ; but you may go on pioposlng, and if the presi dent gives me enough for it, I will sell him a Even admitting the president convention. could have demeaned himself to this species of diplomatic legerdemain, to this kind of hide am' seek correspondence, what prospect did Mr. Jackson's actual intimations hold out to him ? None, that was at all consoling : the whole po-_ iitica! landscape painted by the new minister was barren and dreary. Although the succes sor of Mr Erskine would not affirm positively what his sovereign wait'd do, yet he very plain ly designated what he would niff do. He would not rescind .he orders in council upon any other terms than a substitution by compact of similar provisions in their stead ; he would never cettse to maintain the prerogative of a total and un qualified interdiction of all trade with the ene my; and, essentially speaking, he would not consent to abandon a single prominent feature of that maritime policy, against the whole sys tem of which the constituted authorities of America hd uniformly protested. Where, then, was the use of making proposals to Mr. Jackson? Did he imagine that the American government, in the pursuit of its rights, would waste its time and its labor for his amusement, to frame propositions merely to he received, and discussed, and rejected by him? The gentleman has by this time discovered that he undervalued the cabinet of Washington, and committed bis fame and ltis feelings (if feelings he has any,) to the thorns cf ridicule and contempt. But the American administration would not be provoked into an early and abrupt rejection of the hope of accommodation, even through such an ungracious minister as Mr. Jackson.— The president and his counsellors appear to have been deteimincd to probe Mr. Jackson more closely as to ihn object of bis mission, and tfejh ing lii-n strictly to ibe test. in the ex. pectation that be had still in store the preclot 3 balm which was to hea! the festering wounds of the nation. Accordingly, Mr. Smith ad dressed ro him on the 1 9th of October, a very lucid and masterly letter, the commencement of which exposes the frivolity of the exception which Mr. Jackson had taken to the prescrip tion of written for verbal communications.— 1 'he reader must be amused with tbe awkward and cmix.rras.scd escape which the new envoy makes from the petplcxity of ignorance and humiliation which he had presumptuously brought upon himself, No additional weight can be g-vcn, by any remarks in this place, to <»e overwhelming arguments by which Mr. Smith demonstrates the propriety of Mr. Jack son's presenting a formal explanation of the true cause of the disavowal of Mr. Krskine's arrangement, nor to the sagacity and just rea soning with which the secretary of state points out an untruth advanced by the represen ative ot his Britannic majesty relative to that ex p! mation haying been made in London to Mr. Pinkney ; nor any force added to the repulsion of Mr. Jack son's insinuation tnat the govern ment of the United States had manifested no dissatisfaction at the disavowal of the arrange ment. It is in his letter of the lythof Oct. Mr. Smith statet that Mr. Erskitie did present for his consideration the three conditions" con tained in the printed dispatch of Mr. Canning ot the 23d of January ; but that, finding they were rejected, Mr. Erskitie proposed others which others were accepted. It is particularly recommended to the reader to peruse two or three times, and with attention, that part of Mr. Smith's letter in question which imnia dintely follows this statement; it places the subject in so clear a light that it cannot be mis taken ; and, in a special manner, let the ex pression of the secretary of state be remarked, viz : " That he [Mr. Erskinej had, or, at least, that he believed he. had sufficient authority to con clude the arrangement, his formal assurances durin our discussions were such as to leave no room to doubt." Upon this ground, then, the Ame rican government acted, namely ; Mr. Erskine verbally suggested three propositions which have since appeared to be the three conditions em brac'd in the dispatch from Mr. Canning of trie 2. i l of January, and which wen' rejected by Mr. smith : and, when the late Britisn minister proposed otheis more consonant to equ.ty unci of course more agreeable, he gave form'd as su nances to the secretary of state, that he was au thorised to make them the basis of the arrange ment. Mr. Erskine did not tell Mr. Smith (nor does Air. Smith say he did, and Mr. Jackson himself does not openly assert it) that theth.x conditions first suggested were tbe 011 / 1 / ones, which his instructions contained. The sécréta» ry of state made no enquiry in that respect. It was none of the secretary's business. It w .s for Mr. Erskine to look to it that he did not d'sobey the orders of the king his master. Mr. Smith was treating with the British accredited minis ter ; a minister with a full genual rover to act for the British government. Mr. E me never s/h vied his instructions to Mr. Smith, as Mr. Jackson admits; but merely in a verbal way, as any man in making a bargain would do, propo sed them experimentally. He did precisely wlvat an individual docs at maikct ; when he could not make the arrangement, (or, in other words purchase what he wanted) at one price, he gate another. If he disobeyed bis instructions, that, »« Mr. Smith very justly rcrnaiks, " is a ques tion essentially between him mil bis government." Me. Erskine himself in hm letter to Mr. Smith, asseits unreservedly, that " he conceived 'ac had rouf., ruled to his majesty's wishes; and to the spirit, at least, of tbe instructions." To tills, opinion he adhered to the last moment of his re maining in tile United Suies ; and the only re volution that appears to have taken place in hia mind In relation to the subject, was a ft/unfit convie, ion, occasioned by the disavowal, ''that lie had formed an erroneous judgment of his ma il intention ," which is an obser jrsry s vies vatiou that Mr. Erskitie makes in his letter of the I 4 h of August to the secretary of state, and which is a severe reproach on the British gov ernment ; fully implying, that although tiie in structions of Mr. J.tcksou's predecessor justified the ai rangement, yet that it was neither the <• v •irai" nor the " intention " of the British mitt that any arrangement on reasonable terms tst-y should have been entered into. To the testimony of Mr. Erskine, and to the reason of the case, is added the explicit declara tion of Mr. Smith, that the circumstance that, the dispatch of the 23d of January from Mr. Cunning to Mr. Erskine was the only -cat which authorised him to propose conditions, " was fir the fest time known" to the government of the United Slates by Mr. Jackson himself, tn his letter of the Utb of October: "and (Mr. Smith continues) I need hardly add, that if that dispatch had ueea communicated nt the time of the arrangement, or tf it had been known that the propositions contained in it, and which were nt first presented by Mr, Erskine, were the only on which lie was authorised to make an ar,' ones rangement, the arrangement would not have been ' " There is no duplicity m this language ; made. it denies all knowledge of the real tut re extent of Mr. Etskine's instruction« ; and avers, ifthey had been known to be such as Mr. Jack assertS them to be, no compact would have son been cade.

JAMES MADISON. December I fi, 1 80p. ijtief account of an official conversation between Mr. Canning ami Mr. Pinkney, on the 18th of January, 1809 , continued on the 1 cl the same month. [Transmitted by Mr- Pinknn/ to the Secretary of SMc.l I dined at Mr. Canning's with the cor/n dL ):lcma!i/ue, on the 1811 1 January. Before dinner he came up to me, and entering into conversa « tion, adverted to the report which he said bad reached him that the Amciicau ministers (here acid in E'rance) were, about to lie recalled. 1 replied, that 1 was--not aware that sucii a step bad been resolved upon. I!e then took me a side, and observed that, according to i, virw of the ju-te pfoueed-ngs of congress, the resolutions of rhe honsc rf revrese,.natives in committee of the whole appeared to be calculated, if passed rr.to a law, to remove the impediments to ar rangement with the United States, on tire sub jcr is of the orders in conn and the Chesa peuke, by taking the dircriminat'on be tiveer. Great Britain and France in the exclusion of vessels of war f ont American port", added that it was another favorable circumstance that tlie non-importation system, which seemed to be in contemplation, was to be applied equally to both patties, instead of affecting as heretofore Great Britain alone, ' proposed to Mr. Canning, that I should call pu him in the cour e of a day nr two for the what he purpose of ft free communication upon had suggested. To this be readily assented ; and it whs selected that 1 should see him on the Sunday following, (the 22.1) at 12 o'clock, at Ins own house. In the interview of the 22d, Mr. Canning's impressions appeared to be in all re«[>ects the same with those which he had mentioned on the go 18th ; and I said every thing which I thought it consistent with candor and discretion to confirm sent him in his disposition to seek the re-establish-, ment of good understanding with us, andispeV daily to see in the expected act of congress (it it should pass) an opening for reconciliation. the ft was of some impottance to turn their at tention here, without loss of time, to the man ner of any proceeding that might he in their feet contemplation. It see. -- d that the resolutions of the house of representatives, if enacted into a law, might render it proper, if not indisprnsi of ble, tha' the affair of the Chesapeake should be settled at the same time with the business of the orders and embargo, and this i understood to be It followed Mr. Canning's opinion ami wish, ugld to be settieil at that the whole matter oi Washington, and as tnis. was moreover desirable on various other grounds, I suggested that it and woulJ hc well (in case a special mission did not i meet their approbation) that the necessary pow ers should be sent to Mr. Erskine. In the course of the conversation, Mr. Can ning proposed several questions relative to our late proposal ; the principal were the two fol lowing : 1 . In rase thev should wish cither through me or through Mr. F.iskiue, to meet us ttyon the basis ol our late overture, what way'was the itfeciuul operation of our embargo as to after it should be broken off as to France, X: n, to bese.ured ? It was evident, lie C,-. at Bur saut, that if we should do no more than rciusc clearances for the ports of France, See. or pro mbit under penalties voyages to such ports, the a t which my Liter nf the 2jd of August, and my published instructions, proposed <o have iu view, would not be produced; fo r that vessels, allbough cleared for British ports, might, when once out, go to France instead of coming here ; that this would in fact be so, ( whatever the pc, nalties which the American laws might tie nounce against off n lers) could not, he imagin. ed, be doubted ; and he therefore presumed that the government of the United States would not, after it had itself declared a commerce with France, &c. illegal, and it» cirizens who should geinit delinquents, and after having given entra o Gr eat Britain by com pa t an interest in the strict observation of the prohibition, complain if the naval force of this country snould assist in preventing sucii a commerce. - . He asked whether there would be any ob S' (,hc r T* al lte B,it " b or ' ,cr : and the American embargo cotemporaneouR ? He seemed to consider this as in.lispens.hle, Nothing coulrl lie less admissible, he said, than li ât Great Britain, after t-ar inding U.r orders, should for any time, liowcier short, he left sub ject to the embargo in common with France, whose-decrees were subsisting, with a view to an experiment upon France, or with any other v.civ.

I took occasion towards the close of our con ent of versait, in to mention the recent appqû^frn admiral Berkeley to the Lisbon siauon. a'Mr. Car,ning said, that whatever might be #cnV m clination to consult the feelings oT the AigJ\|ff government on that subject, it was irnpossM c 111 hie tor the admiralty to resist the claim of that officer to he employed (no other objection ex isting against him) after such a lapse of time since his return from Halifax, without twinging him to a court martial ; although I did not un demand him to say that this would he the case. He said that admiral Berkeley, in what hc had done, had acted wholly without authority. I did nnt propose to enter into any discussion up. the subject, and therefore contented mysclt on with speaking ot the appointment as unfortu nate. lrr both of these conversations, Mr. Canning's language and manner were in the highest degree conciliatory. ° conciliatory. ° Extract of a letter from Wm. Pinkney, esq. mi nister plenipotentiary of the United States in London, to the Secretary of State, dated Lon don, May 28, 1809 . ^ In the interview which took place, (on May 2 j) Mr. Canning said, that the British minister had acted m his late negociation and engage ments With you not only without authority' but m uircct opposition lo the most precise instruc tions ; that the instructions actually given to him had been founded on his letters received nere :n January, in which were set loith the par tien, ars ot seveverul conversations that had trass cd between him and Mr. Madison, Mr. Gallatin and youiself, but especially the two last ; that \\ i TP eare ' i f"' m fhese conversations, that, in die opinion ot the persons with whom thev were held, the government of the United Statcs'would he willing that Great Rritarn should consider the measures then , . . contemplated by conjzres?. relative to non-Hitercowne, and the indiscr.min, ate exclusion ot belligerent vessels from our waters, as presenting an opening for the renewal ot amicable discussions with this lt u . country ; that it » Id be disposed, m the case of the Chew prake, to receive as reparation, in additin to the prompt disavowal and recall of admiral Berke l:y, the restoration of the seamen forcibly taken out of that vessel ; that, on the subject of the elfe?! : n v C ° Uncl1 ' « ™! ld no objection in case drey were revoked as regarded the United -.ates, to repeal the embargo and non-iti ter count h WP as to G real Bii'cnr-, lo contit.tis them as lo France and Holland am! such oilier countries as should have in Vorce maritime edicts similar to those of France, so long as those edicts remained ; that it would allow it to l,e under stood that the British cr- zers (night cajiturc A mcrican vessels attempting to violate the embar go and non-intercourse laws so modified ; that it would even agree to abandon during the pré sent war all trade with enemies' colonies fiom which we were excluded in peace ; that it was prepared to regulate by treaty the commet niai telaiionsof the two countries upon the basis of. - the most favored nation, or upon that of reel * 1 procal equality; and, in a won!, that it was ex tremely desirous of re-establisii'n.g the most per feet good understanding and the most fiiendly connexion with Gre* Britain Mr. Canning proceeded to info m me that m consequence of these representations, some parts of which he said I had myself confirmed in ttvo conversations in January, he had framed and transmitted to Mr. Erskinc two sets of instruc. lions, dated the 23d of that month, hut not for warded till some time afterwards, the first of which related to the business of the Chesapeake, and the second to the orders in council, and the i mposed commercial arrangements. These in smictions, together with the passages in Mr. Erskinea letter, written I believe in December List, which contained the ahovementtoned rc presentations and some other details which I ought not to repeat, Mr. Canning read to me. Although Mr. Canning made me acquainted with Mr, Erskinc's instrui.tions, he did not in any degree ap\|irize ine of the explanations, transmitted by that milliner, of the grounds and motives of his proceedings ; and I could not he sure, from any thing which Mr. Canning had stated to me, that 1 had been made to under stand the exact nature and character of the transaction. I believed, therefore, that it beho. ved me to be particularly careful how I received what Mr. Canning thought fit to disclose to me. In looking back upon the past 1 discovered no inducements to a less cautious course. 1 re inembered that Mr. Canning had not told mein our conversations in January (one of which oc currerl the day before the date of his letter to Mr. Ivskinc) that he intended to confide to him such powers as lie must then have been in the ict of preparing, or indeed any powers at all. That in our conferences m April, after the arrival of the Purafir, the same reserve was practiced._ That in the last of those conferences Mr. Can ning admitted only (and that too upon being pressed by me) that in the business of the Che sapeake, he « had written to wr. Erskine, in compliance with what he understood to he my wish, that the settlement of that affair should be transferier! to Washington," that even then the u,n f * hcn hc had <!oni: 60 was not mentioned ; and that au to the orders in council, I was suf. feted to suppose that négociation in America had nnt been authorised. It occurred tome, moreover, that as it had already been decided that Mr. Erskine was to be disavowed and as that decision had been made public through the bnatd of trade, 1 could not hope to prevent that disavowal, and that with my impeifect know ledge af facts, it might be worse than useless by labored discussion to attempt it.

Mr. Canning tells me that the conversations detailed in Mr. Erskine's letters did not, as 1 had supposed, suggest that the government of the U.

It is not improbable that when Mr. Canni, »8 read these instruct! _ ... . s to me, 1 inferred front the manner in which the three points sutcd'ih ilu, 5th, 6 lh and 7th paragraphs are introduced and connected, that they were all consider ec \| as suggested by Mr. Erekine's •« r-nort of his conversations with Mr. Madi son, Mr> Gallat\|n aud Mr< g ; j . , . , nun, wnettter f , l ,. ^ an y oi \|' er cause into the mis.

Upon the sccoqcI of the conditions mcn tionedin Mr Erskine's iu 3 tructions I made several remarks.

EXPOSITION Of the conduct of the I fun. FRANCIS JAMES JACKSON, In his correspondence sait à ROBERT SMITH, Enquire, Secretary of State. continued.) This is not Otlly ail Untruth as It res p fcts Mr. Smith, but it is a pal , », , , . ... 1 pable departure from veracity in re. gard to Mr. Erskine. The latter gentleman has no where asserted, , - • confidently asserted) that Mr. t J / .... ylTlith substituted conditions.. i he inducement with Mr. Erskine for concluding the agreement of the 19tll f A -j â r0 se as hc avors j n \|,j s l et . \ , . ter ol August 14th from a thorough conviction in his mind, that he Was act j ne , j n conformity with his majes tv's wishes.' Mr. Smith neither solicited him to accept nor reject; ' all the propositions came from Mr. Erskine: there could be no possible motive on the part of the American government to urge Mr. Erskine to depart from the tenor of his instruc tions. or the least disposition to sub stitute terms lor him ; for what pos sible benefit could accrue to Mr. Smith or to the president by wheed ling the British minister into an ac commodation, which, if contrary, to his orders, they would have known would not have been accepted by his government ? Common sense rejects all such insinuations ; and that man must be the victim of cre dulity indeed, who can for one in stant believe that the secretary of state or that Mr. Madison would not only risk their reputations, but place in jeopardy a great mass of property belonging to their fellow citizens, on the event of so frail a compact.— Besides, if Mr. Erskine had been weak enough to be their dupe, or sufficiently wicked to combine with them, he would hardly have sense enough or be so honest as to keep the secret. The extract just quoted, which thus libels the American govern ment and implicates Mr. Erskine, is that passage of Mr. Jackson's letter wherein he presumes to contradict the constituted authorities of the U nited States. It was of course in cumbent on the executive to vindi cate his own honor and maintain the outraged dignity of the nation. Mr. Smith's letter to Mr. Jackson of the 1st of November contains this necessary vindication, by declaring such insinuation's 1 inadmissible.'— v And what was Mr* Jackson's answer ?\\| " I have carefully avoided [says he] {, drawing conclusions that did not ne-.j,ons cessarily follow from the premis'es advanced by me., and least of all t should I think of uttering an insinu ation where I was unable'to substan tiate a fact. With determined per »> tinaeity he adds, " and in so doing I must continue." Thus it is per ceived Mr. Jackson has insulted the government : he repeated the insult after being told that it was inadmis sible, and insisting on the untruth of t/ie most unequivocal terms, openly ( Ind imperatively avowed his resolu ion to " continue" the same conduct. There was no possibility af forbear ing any longer ; it had become in dispensably necessary to cut him off frotn the government, and according ly he was cut off. The evasion which Mr. Jackson afterwards attempted to palm upon the secretary of state is the basest of all subterfuges. Making use of Mr. Oakley's name, he says ** One of the facts alluded to [the communication of the conditions by Mr. Erskine] had been admitted by the secretary of state himself," ar.d 14 that that in s'tiuction [of January 23c!] is the on ly one in which the conditions were prescribed, is known to me." He then proclaims, that it was for " sta ting these facts and adhering to them" that he was dismissed by the presi dent. So far from this having been the ground for discarding him, it is confidently affirmed by the writer of this article, that if Mr. Jackson in his letters to the secretary of state had had advanced nothing more than what he does in Mr* Oakley's note, the government of the United States would certainly have taken no ofience at it. But Mr- Jackson's insinuati ons and assertions were of a very difierent complexion- They were not that Mr. Smith admitted one fact, that Mr. Jackson knew another fact; but that Mr. Smith having sta ted to Mr. Jackson, that " after the explicit and peremptory asseveration that this government had no such knowledge, [of the dispatch] and that with such a knowledge no such ar rangement would have been entered into, th* view which you have again presented of the subject makes it my duty to apprize you that such insinu ations arc inadmissible Mr. jack son replied, after other remarks,— 44 least of all should I think of uttering insinuation where I was unable to an A man so fully » substantiate a fact. convicted of prevarication can surely have no credit with the public. It will be observed that the ground of Mr. Jackson's disgrace is not a disagreement as to personal veracity between Mr. Smith and Mr. Erskine, or between Mr. Smith and Mr. Jack son ; but it is exclusively a question, whether Mr. Jackson in an official correspondence with the American government, was to be permitted to call in question the veracity of the power with whom lie was treating ; not whether Mr. Smith told the truth whether Mr. Jackson told the or truth; but whether the executive of the United States was to suffer itself be repeatedly and unequivocally to stigmatized with the ii falsehood. The pith and substance of it is this : Would a private gen tleman in negociating any business whatever with another person put up with the lie direct ? Apply the an to the case between the govern swer of the United States and Mr. ment Jackson, and the point is decided to the satisfaction of every American ci tizen who loves his country and vene rates the constitution. Mr. Jaekson rnissn was doubtless at liberty to amplify * and enforce any respectful propositi that he advanced, by all the ar~ jpuments within his reach, provided, rçicy were decorously urged ; but it t w as departing from every customary ride of diplomatic deportment wh[ch prevails even in time of war, to draw inferences and to insist upon conclu* si a ns, which are neither deductible frotn the circumstances which he cites, nor warranted by the evidence which he quotes in support of them. How much less was it permissible to iurent facts which had no foundation in truth. Supposing, nevertheless, that Mr. Ers inne h \d stated that .Mr. Smith substituted conditions for him, by what new rule of logic is it, that Mr. Erskine, whom Mr. Jackson represents as having depat ted from the conditions of his instructions as well as having affirmed to the government of the Unit« d States an ui .Tilth, is to be re competent and credible wit ceived an ness as m a fact wiiich is derived bv the government whtch he has deceived ? Stich sophistry cannot he supported by the moat cunning lawyer nr subtle casuist. There is,indeed, nothing more inconsist ent than Mr. Jackson's false reasoning, from the begining 10 the end ol the corres pondence. The length of the cortespon dt-nce and the d.ffustveuess cf his style may, for an instant, emoarrass the under standing ; but, when his anti-neutral doc trines and anti-American prejudices are essentially comprehended, their T-tgr aut and tvranical aspect will be manifest to every individual M the commutin'. Fhe new envoy admits, he evades, avows, and insinuates, and disavows, asserts, rejects, Th« a breath. equivocates, and all in convinced the mure he wrote, the mote he was either American government that he the mischievous instrument for perverting the good intentions of his sovereign, r.r the slippery tool of a designing mistery, whuse evil schemes were too glaring to bo concea led by his shallow artifices. In the preceding pjrt of this exposition it is remarked, that, " a rigid examination of the language and spirit of ?»Ir. Jackson'» letters,■..•ould evince that the recapitulation of the Secretary of State (as to what pass ed in official verbal lonlerrenct) is sub stantially correct." There is no manner of doubt, that the three conditions are the which Mr. Jackson would only terms upon accept any proffered arrangement, however he might receive and discuss 11 propositi* He dots not ons of any other description, any where in his letters to the Secretary of State denv it. All that he savs is in cor roix-Tation of i'. These 3 omiincn" are embraced in the despatch fm-n Mr. Can ning to Mr. Erskine of the 23d January, and require from the United State* a re linquishment f tire carrying trade, a nnn* intercourse against France and her dtpen cies, ar.d permission for Great Britain to enforce the acts of Congress on the ocean. Mj. Jackson says, indeed, that he was not instructed to renew these nor to make any other proposals ; but he assigns as the sol« reasons for the absence of such instructi ons, 1 st. that they had been rejected by tile American government ; and 2d. that Great Britain would never cease to main tain the principle recognized by those con ditions, to wit ''the total, and unquali fied interdition of all trade with the ene my''in neutral bottoms on American ac it to be " matter of indtf count ; declari to Great Britain, whether the fere nee council be continued, or an orders in arrangement by mutual consent substituted In brief, Mr. Jackson was in' its room, tot authorized to renew the three conditions, because ihey would not be accepted by the Presid :rt ; and he was instructed to pro pose no new ones, because the British gov nment would yield to nothing but die ei If a doubt exists upon three conditions. the sohject, let the reader inspect the new eovov's letter of the 4th of November, "before the orders in wherein he says, be revoked, their objîct must council shall And one be obtained iu some omcr way. of those orders, to wit, that of (he '2GM of April, the one which is now in operative existence, Mr. Jackson affirms, •* is more restrictive than those of November 1807." f tiie di» These declarations on Ute part n carded minister, explain what f"-' his letter oft he 2 ou ottJ ber, when, i m speaking 6 » ms instructions, he announc g chat ";hev look to substitutions for notion»

The Cherokees on the Atkaiis.i and White livers, are not included in the table now transmitted; it is estimated that there is about 1000 including men, women and child' n on the west side of the M ssissip pi ; they nave u'«o many cattle and horses, some ofthern being very Wealthy.

The cau-es which have led to 1 his recent charge of the position of t, e commander in chief, we learn are as follow. It had been discovered for some time past, that great inconvenience and detriment to the pub lic service, arose from tite remote situation of the " head quarters" of the army, in dispatch ing orders from whence to the different sections of the union wlicic military forces were sta tioned, considerable delay and attendant difficul ties, unavoidably resulted; and the arrange ments of the war office were likewise embar rassed, owing to the want of celerity in its communication with the general staff'd the ar my. It has been deemed best, therefore, to re move the commander in chief to a more cen tral position, which will be fixed upon as his permanent head quarters, and fiom whence will issue the various commands to subordinate officers. A spot in the neighbourhood of Wash ington, has been selected for the purpose, and will he occupied in the way we have mentioned, so soon ns the necessary arrangent ills are made.
