THE LATE GENERAL HAMILTON. It is difficult to fay what were the prominent fea tures in the charafter of this great man. His genius developed itfelf at an early period of life, and induc ed a merchant of relpeetability 'and dircernment, in whole counting-houfe he was placed, in the Weft-In dies, to recommend his quitting that occupation to purfue hit Bodies at Columbia college, in the State of New York. He here made aftonithing, peogrefs, and was engaged in a political difpute with the Prefident, which was .fo conduEted in the newfpapers, that he was not difcovered, foi a long time, as the author.— The war commenced while he was yet a Rodent, and be raifed a company (we believe, of artillery) with which he marched to the field, and having his retreat apparently cut off upon York Mod, difcovered con. fiderable talent and bravery in extricating himfelf. He was immediately noticed by General West+ :No. TON. and taken into his famil y wan Aid de•Camp, and continued to enjoy his confidence, in a high degree, during his life; although. from Come irregularities among the fair fez, of which complaints were made to the General, by the farmers in the vicinity of the camp, be found it neceflary to Phew him Tome (eve. rity ; at leaf!, to indicate that he did not place that reliance upon him, which a more regular obfervance of difcipline would have warranted. An inftance of this was apparent at the liege of York Town, where an attack being meditated upon two redoubts, cae of which fell to the lot of LAFAYETTE, and the other, by the routine of fervice, to HAN mum, as officer of the day. The General was about to give this IA to another officer, which coming to the knowledge of Colonel H. (whether by the intention of the General or not is not known) he went to Head-quarters, urged his claim to the honour, and obtainedthe command. At the dole of the war, be took to the practice of the law, in which he made a brilliant figure, as well as in the tegiflature of the State of New York, and the Congrefs of the United States.—He wrote at this time his Nodes ; a work, which like all his others, dif covered a ttrong mind, enriched by an indult rims ap. plication to Rudy. He made great efforts to conciliate the Citizens of the United States with thofe Royalifts who remained in America at the evacuation of New Yorks for his politics were always of the liberal call. 3y this means he tendered *Bendel fervice to his country—preferring to it a number of valuable citi sena dad& the new order of things ; and obtained for Neel,' ate efteem and affeftion of thole who had been oppofed to hira in politics while the mita lafted. At the promulgation of the new Contlitution, he is laid to have been party with Mr. Jar (late Envoy Extraordinary to this Court), and Mr. MADISON (the prefent Secretary of State) in publithing the work, called "The Federalift," which had an excellent ef foß in removing objections and eltablifhing the prin. triples of that Magna Charts in the minds of the peo ple. But, though it be difficult to fay - whether he thole molt in the charade ,. of a addict . , a lawyer, or a ftatefman, his arrangement of the finances of the United States has been the fvhjeift of the higheft and }nog general commendation. It will fcarcely be credited by the next generation, that a debt, which was felling in the market of the finked States at the depreciated rate of Ist pc• scent. was raifed by his ' Adminiftratioa to 140--an extreme price, to be fore., at which it did not Mind lung ; but at 120. millions were fold even in London ; and from that day to die pretest, no debt intEitropt has maintained a bet ter credit, nor deferred fo good a one. His report on this fobjeft to the Houle of Reprefentatives will remain at all times a monument of that verfatility cf lentos, by which he was enabled to combine the drudgery:of official detail with the luminous ideas of general poliej ; and it will be remembered, to his imtotrtal honour, of which he had the higheft no tions, that his fingers were never foiled by any per (final gain in there tranfaftions, which offered fo great hod evident opportunity, and by which his country was fo much enriched. The wired CE*AI " Should be net way dune, but toinirpectof." With fetch talents, and a film and euergetic man ner of announcing his op inions, General Hassizrow was not likely to eicape the eye of envy—an imbecile . eff..rt was made to foil his charafler in the public and to fix upon it that fligma which he moll defpiled. He wiped ibis away to be lure. but it was not with a clean napkin—there VMS a Lady in the cafe—what milchicf is there without' In repelling, the charge of corruption, he boldly admitted that ot gallantry; not indeed that he (educed, but was (e -duced, and his name was Ass:emote and not Jo. SlTN—it he a cre only pelted on this occafion by hint that was without fin, his head would not have been fo briti:cd but that a mine might fit it; bat it was plating a powerful werpost in the hands of his eve mit, in a country whole manners are not quite Co rO'eed as in Come parts of Europe • and many of his friends regretted his avowal of die fait, notwith. (landing the robe of gallantry that was thrown over it. On thole fubjefts which agitated the Government of the United States during the late war in Europe, when it was pecelTary to ouferve fo nice a conduit to avoid ini lt, cr rather to obtain mirth for injuria received on the one hand. and to keep clear of the er-nreft co the other, his publications under the figna tnre of Pacifiarr had an evident tendency. to calm the ; Llic n•ind ; nor tan it he d. silted that his Conn. tils in the Cabinet of the United States had their due weight in. promoting the bloodlefs mode of dt..!eriecs wiawut cr mprt mifmg the lienour of the nation, in which that infant cou ntry has let an cz• ample fo worthy the imitation ct other States.

A very extraordinary and fatal accident occurred on Sunday, at the houfe of Mr. HOIMAN, confec tioner, in Bithopfgate-ftreet. It appears, that about two o'clock in the afternoon, one of the Ilsopmen having occafion to go down to the ice-well to fetch up ice, by foam means let fire to a quantity of ftraw which covered it. The arew being damp did not burft forth into a flame, but continued to burn in a (mothered (late : the mall di I all he could to extin. pith the fire, but witho=ut rifeEt ; and it extended itfelf all over the well. tf.; this time the man be came In ill and faint, l'oan if..e (tench atifing from the damp ftraw, that it W.II v =ih di ffi culty he efcaped fuffreation. When lie reached the top of the well he was hill exceedingly ill, Anti went to bed, but with out mentioning to any one what had happened.— After tome time, being confiderahly recovered, he grit up and communicated the whole of the affair to his fellow.fervant, and mentioned his determination to go down to the well agsin, to make a fecund ef fort to put out the fire. lie.accendingly went, and having remained there a confiderable time, his fel low.tervant called him from the top f the well, and not receiving any anfwer, be became extreasely alarmed, and imparted his fears t a porter belong ing to the London Tavern, which is direaly oppofite Mr. Hoffman's. The potter immediately went down into the well to fee what had become of the an, whom he found to ail appearan ce dead; an?rtr:ogh he himfelf was greatly aff ected b y the I'm its, he thought he fhould be able to being the deceit fed to the top of the ladder, upon his (boulders. The poor fellow had nearly fucceeded in his humane intention, and was within a fhort diltance of the top. when be was obliged to throw the corpfe from off his (boul ders, and it fell to the bottom of the well. The por ter himfelf was fo completely overcome by the (tench. that lie was not able to keep his hold of the ladder, and almoll at the fame moment dropped down him (elf. The man at the top was dreadfully agitated, sad alarmed the whole houfe. As it was now (up poled that the fire had nearly (pent itfelf, and that there was lets Danger, a perfon was found, who of fered to venture clown into the well, to fave if ?af fable, the life of the porter who fell from the ladder ; it was, however, too late; the man was found to be deed. This petfon was down only a fhort time be fore he began to exoelience the ill effeas of the foul air ; and notwithhanding he made the belt of his way to the ladder, he vas In completely overpowered by the (leach, as to be unable to get to it.
