THE fUDICIART BILL.

Mr. Marshall spoke against the motion, and in
a lengthy speech defended the new system. Mr.

account of the increased expence, which some
members had stated at 100,00 c dollars—where
as, Mr. H. made the increase only 46,500;
which he contended was trifling, compared
with the essential advantages of afnore per

in favour of the motion ; which was carried—

Extract of a letter from a gentleman in Greenbrier
county, to bis friend in Richmond.
" We are all grumbling here about this tick
et-law, which appears to exclude one tbirdat
least of the citizens,of Virginia from a vote for
the President of the United States —we are anx
ious to hear how others, of bur citizens, think
on this occafidn. It appears to me the opposi
tion of our legislature will be difficult to endure,
if they liold on as they arc like to do."
Extract of a letter from a gentleman in tbe upper
part of this fate, to befriend in Richmond.
" J am told I have the ^onor to be nominated
as a candidate for the elector, for the purpose of
Voting for a President and Vice-President, at
the next election.—ls health permits, l am de
termined to Rind firm on the Federal fiJe cif
the question, but I am sorry to believe from such
a mode of eleaion as our assembly have thought
proper to adopt and call a law, men thinking
as I do, are to be precluded from the pleasure of
visiting Richmond on thihoccafion : I shall how
ever rest contented that after all the Demo's of
Virginia can do, they will be frustrated in their
dafigns, for I have little fear but John Adams
will be de&ed."
AMERICAN GOVERNMENT.
,Buonaparte) in his letter to the Senate of
Hamburg, inserted in our last paper, in so
words has pronounced an eulogy on the Admin
iftratioL of the American Government, that had
ought to coiriound the Jacobins in our country,
who have never ceafcd to calumniate every iota
of their proceedings .He here fays," Virtue
and Courage prtfcrvcs States ; by Cowardice and Vice
the, are ruined."
We certainly do know that it has been only
by the Courage and Virtue of our Government,
that we have been gble to ride out the storm ;
and we are happy to hear Buonaparte acknow
ledge it. For a proof ofhis martith, that Co
wardice and Vice destroy them, we ha+e only to
look at Holland and Switzerland, that are now
wholly ruined, for not having Cburage and Vir
tue enough to have refilled the French, otherwise
they would now have been a free and happ,
people.-—And you cowardly Schute of Hamburg,
. if you had not sent a whining letter.to the arch
Consul of France, you never would have receiv
ed such a haughty answer. Let us learn wif

Extrabl of a Letter from St. Barthokmewe, data
Feb. 16, to a gentleman in this town.
" THE admifllon of French planters who
have property at Martinique, but were ablent
for some time, becomes very difficult since the
arrival of Vidor Hughes at Cayenne. Yeftcr
day we received here the certain tidings that
this bold and enterprizing man has taken pos
session of Demarara; and it is apprehended that
he wont flop there, but that he is likely to
carry his views on some other point, having a
coufiderable force under his command."
A letter from a gentlemen at St. Sebaftian,to

Philadelphia, after a Short paf&ge ; the Ameri
can Supercargoes and commanders at this port,
sensibly affected by this great lots, to America

one exception, as a testimony of refpe& to that

their colors for one week, at half mast, and to

To the Farmers of Neiu-Englan#.
The mercantile gentlemen of the United
States are going largely into building of vessels
for foreign trade. These are now more keels
laid, and about tb be laid in the ihip yards of
New England, from the Kennebec to the fiud
fon, and probably, also in many of the Southern
States; than were ever known In one season
since the settlement of the country. These vef
fcls will be ready for the sea by the next Au
tumn, and they must be Irideried with the pro
duce of tbe country; They are chiefly intend
ed for the Wefl-India trade. Tho probability
is, that these will be a great demand for the
produce of the foil. A Brother Farmer would
therefore offer you his friendly advice, to make
your farms as productive as possible.— Grain of
all kinds, Stock, Roots, and Fruits, will be want

Albany, APRIL 8.
HAMBURGH, JAN. 4.
The elevation of Buonaparte to the
First Consulate of France, in which he
is inveiled with more powers than an,
constitutional King, will only tend to
encreafe the difficulties of pacification,
for neither Francis IL nor Paul I. will
condefeend to have such a colleague in
negociatioti. The Cabinet of Vienna;
which is now bell acquainted with the
policy of the French, is preparing with
the utmost activity for the opening of
the campaign ; and the ir.omeht the sea
son will permit, and the tedudion of Ge
noa i&li take place, General Melas will
attempt to penetrate into the French
territory, while the Archduke will be,
in every refped, prepared to receive the
French, should they make any effort to
enter Suabia.
" The Manheim Gazettes announce,
that an Austrian Courier passed the
Rhine on the third instant with impor
tant dispatches from the Archduke.—
Some persons thought, that these dis
patches not bnly related to the conclu
sion of aa Armistice, but even of a
peace. It appearscertain that on the firft
intelligence that the Ruffians were to
return, Buonaparte judged it expedi
ent to make some proportions relative
to peace to the Court of Vienna : but
it is equally bertairi that the latter (the
return of the Ruffian army being a
greed on) has determined to continue
the war, and to puth the advantages
which it has already obtained. The
Emperor of Russia is not at all inclined
to make peace with Buonaparte. He
desires the restoration of the lawful
King of Faance ; and, therefore, he
he will make the greatest efforts this
year.
BUONAPARTE borrowed his idea of mak-'
ing the Communefccept bis Conftitutiou., from
the regiment of Camels which he raised in F.«
gypt. He observed every beast go d®wn upon
his knees to receive his dragoon upon his back;
and'it struck his fancy that every Frenchman
Should de the fame.
“ The French would be extremely
glad of a suspension of arms, that their
armies might be put into a proper date
by the ensuing spring ; but the Arch
duke, who' must also pay attention to
the system of the Ruffian Emperor,
will not allow himfelf to be thus made
a dupe.
“ Sweden having recalled her Lega
tion from France, Denmark will adopt
a similar measure. M. Dryer, Danish
Minister at Paris, is recalled, and it is
understood that no successor will be ap
pointed. —
VIENNA, JAN. I.

Our army in Italy will soon amount
to 150,00 c men. Almost the whole
of the troops in Tyrol and Carinthia
have orders to march to reinforce that
army.
LOUVER ELBE, JAN. 11.
The most positive advices have been
received at Vienna and Ratifbon that
30,000 Ruffians, as an auxiliary corps,
two-thirds infantry, and one third cav
alry; are now marching in three col
umns towards bohemia. The Ruffian
army now quartered in Bohemia will
be increased to 70,000 men- Thus a
frefh army of an hundred thousand
Ruffians will appear in the field earl,
in the spring, or perhaps sooner, if cir
cumstances Ihould require it-
STUTGARD, JAN. 6.
The Imperial army is Hill receiving
cohfiderable reinforcements fr^m the
hereditary dominions, which are pro
ceeding on their march with the utmost
difpaten. That army consists at pre
sent of 83 battallions, and upwards of
150 squadrons ; it has more cavalry
than that of Italy, where the number
consists of 106 squadron, and bf 136
battallions of infantry.
The return of the Ruffian ^rm, to
the Theatre of war is now officially an
nounced. The Head-Quarters, it is
said; will be at Augfbutg; Thus all
hopes for peace have again vanished ;
but the neutrality of Switzerland it is _
said, is still a fpbjea of negociation.
