town were alarmed by the cry of fire; which
proved to be one of.the buildings belonging to
^he Public Armoury on Federal Hill. The
building (occupied as a filing and flocking /hop)
was entirely consumed, together with a great
part of the utenfik used in these branches of
the business, and about Five Hundred stand of
arms, notwithstanding the utmost exertions of
the inhabitants to extinguish the flames. The
loss is estimated at about 18,000 Dollars.
Extraa of a letter from Capt. Whitney of the Jbip
Hiram, to a gentleman of this town, dated, "Port
Royal, (Martinique) November I&
" I arrived here the 13th inst. after being
twice taken and re-taken ; and one hundred &
two days at sea. Ileft Liverpool, Aug. ad,
and on the lgtb Sept, being in long. 55, and lat. 29,
I was taken by a French foop of war, and all my
people taken out, except Harry, vne man, and a boy
ts I % years of age, an apprentice of mine ; and man
ned with ten Frenchmen, and ordered for Cayenne.—
I being determined on an attempt to retake my Jbip,
,n f rd difeovering her to be Frety^ loaded my pistols
' and bid them in a crate of ware; which bad I not
done,!fooald have loft them,for no left than three dif
ferent times were my trunks fearcbed for them, as
wege the cabin and all parts of the Jbip, which they
could come at ; they found my ammunition, but my
pistols were secure; and such was their extreme
caution, that they would not allow any man to
be off deck ! but eat, drank and slept on deck.
Finding that 1 could not obtain any advantage
of them, by getting them below, I determined
to attack them openly by day light. Therefore
at about 4 o'clock, on the fourth day after being
taken, 1 secured my pistols in my waistband,
having previously told Harry and my man, my
determination, and directed them to have a
couple of handspikes where they could clap their
hands upon them in an instant, and when they
saw me begin, to come to my assistance.
The Prize Majier was now aJlecp on the weather
ben-coop, bis mate at the wheel, and the crew on dif
ferent parts of the main deck. Under tbefe circum-
Jiances I made the attempt by frf knocking down the
mate at tbe wheel; the mdfter Parted Jo quick, that
I could get but a very flight Jiroke at him ; upon
which be drew bis dirk upon me, but Iclofed in with
him, /allied him out of tbe quarter rail, and threw
him overboard. But be caught by tbe main chains
and fbefcaped going into tbe water. By this time I
bad tbe remaining eight upon me, two of whom
I knocked backwards off tbe quarter deck, and Harry
and my man, coming aft at this time with handspikes,
played their part so well among them, that IJoon got
relieved. I then drew a p/10l and foot a black fel
low in tbe bead, who was coming at me with a
broad-axe; tbe ball only cut him to tbe bone, and
then glanced, but it bad an excellent effia, by letting
tbe rest know that I bad pijiols, of which they bad
ho idea. By this time tbe mate whom Ifell knocked
down, bad recovered and run down to bis trunk and
got a pidol, which be fired at my man's face, but tbe
ball miffed bin.
Tbe Prize Mailer, whom t hove over tbe quar
ter, got in again and blabbed Harry in tbe Jide, but
not Jo bad as lb oblige him to give out till We bad
corquered. In ibis Jituation we had it pell mellfor
about a quarter of an hour, when we got them a
running, and followed them on, knocking down tbe
Lindmojl, two or three times round tbe deck when a
part of them escaped below, and tbe refl begged for
mercy, which nee granted on their delivering up their
weapons, which confyed of a di/cbarged pfol, a
midshipman's dirk, broad-axe, a band saw, &c. We
then marched them aft into tbe cabin, and brought
them up one at a time after ftrialy fearebing them,
and confined them down forward."
Ten days after this daring a&ion, capt. W.
was again captured by a privateer schooner from
Guadaloupe, who plundered his ihip of 8 or
ic,cool sterling, put on board a crew of 1 $
French, and ordered her for Guadaloupe. After
being in their hands 46 days, he was Retaken by
,n English frigate and sent into Martinique.

MIDDLETOWN, (CON.) JAN. jB.
The importance of naval commerce to the
United States, and to this Rate, is not duly ap
preciated by the most sanguine among us. On
Connecticut River have been built, during the
past year, about ii,oco tons of Whipping, The
Purveyor of this port, has measured 6,600 tons;
and two surveyors in Hartford and Saybrook,
it is calculated, cannot have measured short of
4,400 tons. The value of (hipping is, Tay £lO
per ton. Os this two thirds may be considered
as produced by materials supplied in the state,
and by the ferviecs of thofc employed in building.
If we multiply the number of tons by £ 6 the
^rodua will be £ 66,000 —an aflonilhing
turn, to be derived from foip building id one
year on Connecticut river. To this, add the
number of vessels built on the numerous rivers
and streams in the Rate, and the product will
amaze all, who have not paid particular atten
tion to the subject. What a source of wealth to
the state ! What a fountain of comfort and sup
ply to thousands of individuals, (hip builders,
logmen, farmers, blacksmiths, ropemakers, &c.
and their families. How prosperous is the
country, that from this single branch of business,
can diffuse the means of living to such num
bers ?
Extraß of a letter from an officer of the frigate
Philadelphia, dated Baffaterre, (St. Kitta)
Dec. 9, 1800.
“ About the 27th of November we recaptur
ed 2 small vessels; one a schooner from New-
London ; the other a Bermudian sloop from
Alexandria, bound to Martinique, laden with
flour, which fold for 20 dollars per barrel ; had
been taken by the French privateer La Resolute,
A few days after we captured the French pri
vateer Hare, of 6 guns and 54 men, 2 days out
ard had taken nothing. We have just sent
tie prisoners on shore, and will proceed on a
ruize as fonn as provisions and water are got
on board. We expert to be at Philadelphia in
three months."
The mother of this wealth is COMMERCE,
and this is the outset only of her blessings.
On Wednesday night, about ten
o'clock, a fire broke out in Robinfon
ftreet, whichnearlyconfumed the wood
en building in which it originated, be-,
fore any assistance could be had from
the engines. This was the third alarm
of fire the fame evening.

Extra of a letter Jteom a Gentleman of bigb ref
lability in York, to the Editor of the Oracle.
MR. PEIRCE,
REELING it incumbent upon me as a mem
bc of society, to difehargethe duties I owe it;
at this time, a necessary but unplcafant dne de
volves upon me—a duty which I owe to the
porld, to my country, to the State of Maffa
ciufetts, and to the town of York.
A " Communication" from York in the Repub
fan Ledger of January 20th, states, that a ref
pe&ablc number of gentlemen met in that
town, and after performing a variety of feats
of wisdom, learning, patriotism and devotion,
they proceeded to business.
ift, —Such as reading part of Mr. Jefferson 's
book in reply to the Abbe Raynald and M. Buf
fon/his defence of religious toleration, and his
feuimepts on the slavery of the blacks, &c.
2d, —They then partook of a bandfome enter
tainment, and closed the farcical feeno by toafffrg
I the warmest of Patriot?, the wisest of States
men, the greatest of Philosophers, & the bright-
Notivitbjianding your bint to tbe " Boston Ed
itors" we do not receive our newspapers with any
punauality. Tbe mail-carriers complain that tbe
business i, intruded to apprentices and journeymen of
tbe printers, who pay little attention to bringing
them tbe papers, and this is tbe cause of our not re
ceiving them. Whatever may be tbe cause, we
know tbe effea: we neither receive tbe Centinel—
Gazette— or even tbe Palladium ; although we
have tbe promise of having them sent on tbe days
they are printed. Why will not tbe Editors pay a
little attention, and not fuffer tbemfelves to be tra
duced by tbe mail-carriers ? It certainly ought not
do be a pleasant thing to them, to disappoint their
customers ; and if other people are in fault, it is not
judicious in them to fuffer tbemfelves to be oenfured
by tbe wrong doers. A. B,
ell ornament of human nature, THOMAS
JEFFERSON" !! !•!! A number of toasts fol
lowed, no less diftinguifhad for folly than for
ignorance and Jacobinifm.
Comments on the above proceedings are un
necessary. The character of York will be re
trieved, my duty as an inhabitant difeharged,
and an infamous libel explained away by the
following affidavit of all the Gentlemen in Tori,
ready to be sworn to when they Ihall be requeu
ed.
To all to whom tbefe presents Jhall concern —
We the Gentlemen of York, in vindication of
that violated name, as relating to ourselves, do
upon our honors solemnly lay and declare, that
the publication in the Republican Ledger of
January the 20th, under the head of " Commu
nication" from York, is absolutely falfe, and a
diabolical assumption of a name, to which none
but the deponents lay claim to in that place ; —
that we mourn for the political apoftacy of some
men from the wilderness qf this town, who
assembled in an obfeure corner of it, on the 6th
of January, for purposes which are avowed in
the Ledger ; that a meeting of a refpe&able
number of Gentleman was held, we utterly and
positively deny, but that a formidable number
of men* assembled we acknowledge, to our sor
row and to their disgrace ; that our earliest in
formation of such a meeting was conveyed to us
by the Ledger ; that Jefferfon's book was not in
their poffeffioa we'are authorized to fay ; that
their handsome entertainment was served up
with simple meats and hard'O^ober; and finally
we request all the Printers of whatsoever place,
if they feel for injured virtue, or the defamed
character of York, to publiffi and republic the
above fads. And further the deponents fay
not at this time.
The Gentlemen of York.
Appointment by authority—Conrade Webb,
Esq. of the town of Petersburg, (Virginia) spe
cial Agent for the United States, in the diftrid
composed of the counties of Prince George,
Dinwiddie, Chefterfield, Sussex, Nottaway, A
melia, Brunswick, Grenfville, and Surry—pur
fuant to an a& of Congress, passed the 30th
June, I 797, entitled, "an a& directing the ap
pointment of agents in relation to the 6th arti
cle of the treaty of amity, commerce and navi
gation, between the United States and Great-
Britain." . —
A REPORT,
Was prevalent in town yesterday, said to be
received from New-York, that Col. Burr was
eleaed President of the United States, by the
people, in consequence of one vote having been
loft to Mr. Jefferfon in that state.
By another gentleman, who left that city on
Sunday last, we understand, that the Convention
with France was there reported to have been
totally rejected in the Senate of the U. States.
* If eight strong, hardy, corn-ied fellows, are
formidable, thele muff be so.
Mr. Stockton, ¥ present Senator, of the U.
States from the state of New-Jersey, has been
nominated by the President, Secretary at War ;
John Marffiall,Efq at present Secretary of State,
is nominated to the office of Chief Justice of the
United States.
It is said to be contemplated to establish a
bank at Salifoury point Or Ameffiury ; and a
new bank at Newburyport ; and also to memo
rialize the legislature agaihft the law reftri&ing
unincorporated banking affociatidns.
The Salem Register fays, that a fubfeription
for a Bank at Beverly is nearly completed ; the
capital to be 100,000 dolls.
It is a fad, that if Mr. Burr and Mr. Jeffer
fon (the champions of liberty) become Presi
dent and Vice-President of the the U. States,
they will owe their elevation to the influence
of SLAVERY. Had the votes resulting from
the number of free persons only of the United
States been reckoned, they would have flood
thus:
IMPORTANT NOMINATIONS.
Jefferfon 63 Adams 6$
Burr 63 Pinckney 64
Majority for Adams 2
for Pinckney I
But from a spirit of accommodation, and to
fatisfy the Southern States, a clause Was intro
duced into the constitution, authorizing the re
presentation of three fifths of the Slaves, of the
United States, beings who have no more pro
perty in their persons, than the horses and oxen
that graze on the hills of New-England. This
principle unjaftly adds 6 Representatives to Vir
ginia, 2 to North Carolina,and 2 to South Car
olina ; and these ten Slave Votes turned the
scale ih favor of Burr and Jefferfon.

Extrafl of a letter from Hamburg, dated
11th Nov. to a friend in Baltimore.
" When you learn of Prussia's intending to
molest Hamburg, its intention to take poffuffion
of Cuxhaven, you need pot be much concerned.
This rumour ayifes from a Piuffian vessel having
been brought into Cuxhaven by an Engliffi fri
gate, in order to repair a leak occasioned at sea,
the release of which the King of Prussia claims
from us. But we have a&ed as we ihould have
done, viz. not having meddled at all with it,
because it being on a neutral flream, every one
has a right to enter. .This difference will soon
be fettled, and we remain under no apprehen
lion about the affair ; therefore if you hear any
thirty refpe&ing it, you may ease the minds of
