ExlraA ofa letter dated Cape-Francois 18/6 April,
1800.
Every kind of bufincfs at this place is at an en
tire (land, the Houses & (lores are all (hut up,
and the people under arms out of town ; this is
in eanfequence of a mifunderftandhig between
Gen. Touffaint, apd the agent from France.—
Touffaint is at present abfcnt, having lately ta
ken Jacquemel from Rigaud where almost every
person was put to death.'

THE WEST-INDIES.
A gentleman from Hispaniola, informs us,
that he was acquainted by Dr. Stevens, at Cape-
Francois, of the arrival at the city of* St. Do
mingo, of a French frigate, in 34 days from
Bourdeaur, which brought dispatches, inverting
Gen. Touiffaint Louverture with the Chief Mi
litary command of the island, confirming Rou
ame in his Agency, and directing Rigaud to
return to France. He also learnt, that orders
were received by this frigate refpe&ing the con
duct of the Guadaloupean privateers ; butof
what nature he could not ascertain.
A gentleman from Guadaloupe, 28 days, re
ports the arrival there of a vessel direct from
France, in a short passage; which it was said
had brought orders for the privateers to cease
talcing American vcffels.—" It was believed the
orders would be ftri&ly complied with."—
gs Hew can zee place reliance on fueb accounts
when nue bale the evidence before us of tbe recent
capture, in tbe European seas, of tbe Minerva, of

Accounts from Cape-Francois mention fre
quent alarms, embargoes, &c. on account of

THE FANDANGO.
A curious Anecdote.
, In the course of the late electioneering endeav
iours for Governor Walker—A Couple ofrunners
;(pretty dapper young gentlemen, who had
imade great exertions in favour of his Axeltre)
\ attended a numerous meeting of the freemen of
1a wealthy populous town in this State, and made
jtheir usual display of eloquence upon the occa
-Ifi&i. But the good people, far from being
I moved by their harangues, or pleated with the
limproper interference—at firft beheld them
I with contempt ; and at length from their too
great impertinence, were almost induced to
try the remedy of an “ oaken towel" —or at
I least kicking and cuffing :—An pld gentleman,
;to divert the people from using any severity
I which might very much injure the young men,
;(it being supposed they were rather incapable
lof doing much mifehief) proposed to have them
turned in the fandango, while the business of
' the meeting was proceeding : which was ac
cordingly done, to the no final! entertainment
of the numerous fpe&ators ; the old gentleman
at the fame time delivering them a moral lec
ture. He would observe to them “ that their
present situation resembled the viciflitudcs of
fortune; that the, ups and downs of life, were
here most admirably described ; that it was like
turning out and putting in Governors:—You
at the top of tbe wheel resemble (in some de
gree) GILMAN ; while your miserable com
panion, at the other extreme, resembles Wal
ker—but anon, a revolution will place him
at the pinnacle, while you are trembling at his
feet. Should there be a revolution in mens'
minds; something similar will very probably
take place in the choice of Governor. You may
reflex upon the tendency and consequences of
all revolutions. For.although it may turn
up some good men into publick employments,
yet a revolution frill as certainly turn up the
scum ; therefore how infinitely preferable is it,
when you get up a good man, to keep him
there rather than to rifle the misfortunes of a
Fandango revolution ? Ponder this well in
your minds, and lam confident (if you have
the good of your country at heart) you will
never attempt a revolution :—There is a bare
possibility of good facceeding ; but moral cer
tainty of evil.' l
Whether the ill-faccefs of their mission—or
the ludicrous figure they made—or their terri
ble apprehensions—or the discourse of the old
gentleman—most affeded them ; cannot well
k be determined; but the fa& is, that after their
being released they took leave very abruptly,
I and have manifefted great signs of contrition—
at least they fay " they are fully determin
ed never to go upon such untoward business a-/
gain." Quere, would not the Fandango be a
proper mode of punishment for such kind of im
pertinent interference ; and ought not every
town to be provided with one ?
The Fandango (as it is called by the maker
of it) is not an original invention of this Coun
try —it is used in Russia, and other parts of
l Europe ; sometimes for amusement, or pleasure,
and sometimes byway of punishment, for those
who in England are punished with ducking, viz.
scolds. The machine somewhat resembles the
large wheel of a grist-mill ; and is turned upon
its axis—at the extreems opposite each other are
suspended four chairs, or conveniences for fit
ting ; so that when the wheel is turned, the
patient feels nothing but the gentle motion
lofI of elevation and depreflion. And to those
who use it voluntarily, it is probably a very
pleasant exercise ; but to the involuntary, it
must appear like bounding over mountains
into horrid gulphs. And as it was upon this oc
casion turned by the nervous arms of rturdy well
disposed operators; the situations of the poor
trembling adventurers, could not be said, al
together, to resemble " sleeping on a bed of
rofes"—And we may well imagine, a profufe
perspiration (the natural consequences of such
Severe exercise) might in some degree endang
er the health of the young gentlemen.

sequence of complaints made by sun
dry merchants of the city of London,
to their government, that the citizens
of the United States have opened and

that, as such a commerce was contrary
