Commercial Intelligence.
Tur. Fry, agent for the Insurance
Company of North America, by letters
from London, of the 16th Dec. receiv
ed on Monday, informs, that he has
recently recovered and received pay
ment for three claims, viz.
For the Start, Mallebay & Durand,
Rising Sun, Wilkie, and
Hannah Poll ;
and that the money had been recovered
on several other claims, for which com
plete powers only are wanting to ena
ble him to receive the fame.
As many other claims for other
companies and for private underwriters
must have programed at the fame time,
this intelligence is of very great im
portance.

letters from Lisbon, dated the begining of De
cember.
FROM LEGHORN,
We learn by Capt. Rich, who failed from
thence Dec. 6, that it was then reported that
the Austrians bad invested Genoa, and, by pro
clamation invited its inhabitants to surrender.
Extract of a letter from a refpe&able Mercantile
House in Cadiz, dated Dec. ~ 1799.
“ Our government has just received a Procla
mation, conceived in the following terms :—
* That the cases of ships detained or captured
by French privateers and brought into Spanish
ports, are to be examined by the competent
courts in Fiance, and not by the French Con
suls resident in Spain who hitherto have pos
sessed faculty to judge definitively in such cases.".
Capt. Lovell, of this place, has arrived at
Baltimore from Demarara, who, on the 26th
Deceiliber,about 70 miles to windward of De
feada, early in the morning fell in with the U
nited States ship L'lnfurgente, Alexander Mur
ray, Esq: commander; by his request he lay by
until they closed several packages—the lieuten
ant who catae on board informed him that there
was also, cruising to windward, the United
States ship Connecticut, capt. Tryon ; the A
dams, capt Morris, and the Invincible of 74
guns; the Baltimore and Pickering cruising un
der the lee of Guadaloupe. Likewise, inform
ed him that three weeks before had arrived at
Guadaloupe, two French ships, one of 20 and
one of 50 guns, which had brought out a new
governor, Genet—Capt. Murray very politely
told me he would stand on a cruise with n.e to
the northward, and accordingly did until 2 p.m.
a lofty warlike looking ship with a crowd of fail
hove in Tight to windward, but on getting fight
of us fne in Budding fails and hauled on a wind
to the northward ; the l'lnfurgente then made
fail and flood to windward after her; night came
on, and he loft fight without knowing which
had the better of the chafe. On the 28th, 1 fell
in with the U. S. brig Pickering, B. Hillar, Esq.
commander, on a cruise; eight days before had
captured the Vbligeifc, of 10 guns, and 61 men,
three days from Guadaloupe, taken nothing; 3
months provision on board. It was expected
that this privateer would have engaged the Pick
eting, as she fix wed 14 ports ; but on the Pick
ering's firing a shot athwart her fore foot, and
giving 3 cheers, the French colors came down.
He had the above news from lietit: Ingraham,
' who came on board— he further said that four
days before he was himfelf on shore at Point
Petre, to exchange the above prisoners, and
there saw the two French ships before men
tioned.
The Pickering altering her cruise, has cap
tured sixteen fail ; she was then full manned,
and all her crew in good health : the doctor,
Mr. Sargent, was so good as to come on board
and prescribe for a man 1 had lick, who has
tince recovered.
FIRE!
A large and elegant new double dwelling
house, tlw property of the bon. H. G. Otis, and
Jonathan Mafon,Efq ! s. situated on the north
weft of the common, took fire yesterday norm,
and the fouth part of the building was con
sumed. The northern part, through the spirit
ed exertions of the collected citizens was pre
fer ved with little damage.
WINDSOR, JAN. 28.
About fix o'clock on Sunday morning last,
the inhabitants of this vicinity were alarmed
by the cry of Fire ! which proceeded from the
building occupied by Mr. Elkanah Phelps, as a
store, and by M< fits. Conant and Mills, as a
Saddler's shop. The flames baffled 411 the at
tempts to extinguish them, and the building,
with all the tools, flock, &c. belonging to Messrs
Conant and Mills, were consumed. The prop
erty of Mr. Phelps was chiefly fccured. The,
wind blowing from the north, the flames com
municated to the house occupied by Mr. Dick
inson, which was likewifc consumed. Nearly
all its co itents were saved. To check,he pro
gress of the devouring flames, the store former
ly improved by Major Forbes, was pulled dawn,
'which answered the purpose so effectually, as
to prevent an, further damage. The buildings
destroyed were the property of Mr. Stephen
Conant. The whole loss is estimated at 4000
dollars.

APPOINTMENT—by Authority.
JAMES CARR, Esq. of Somersworth, Sheriff
of the County of Strafford, vice Theophilus
Dame, Esq. deceased.
ANNUAL FAST.
His Excellency the Governor, with advice &
consent of the Council, has appointed THURS
DAY, the twenty-fourth day of APRIL next,;
to be observed as a day of Falling and Prayer
throughout this State.
22d February 1800!
The day of former hilarity and joy, is chang
ed to mourning and" melancholy ! The pridej
and boast of America is no more! The Hero ;
and warrior of ages has ceased ! The enlight- ;
ened Statesman ; the wife difeerning Politician ;
the firm Patriot, the friend of Man and of his
country, sleeps in the cold embrace of Death!
But what a conflation to his surviving friends,
that he was a firm believer in the Christian Re
ligion, and though his body sleeps in dust, that
his spirit is triumphing in those joys which for
ever flow from the right hand of the most high
GOD!
The day was obfetved in this town with
great solemnity ; appropriate exercises were
performed at the several places of social wor-•
ship, and every heart bespoke grief, while every ;
countenance was fad.
At Exeter, an Oration was pronounced on
the sublime virtues of WASHINGTON, by
the Hon. Jeremiah Smith, Esq.
At the Rev. Mr .JL itchfield's parish in Kit
tery, an excellent Eulogy was delivered by'
r Daniel Sewall, Esq. of York, which met the ap
probation of a very refpe&able auditory.
At the Rev. Mr. Chandler'; parish, William
D. Peck, Esq. pronounced an animated Eulo
gium.
The Rev. Mr. Brigg's deft was supplied by
himfelf, who, ably delineated the character of
WASHINGTON.
Newington, is said to have excelled that day,
in solemn, masterly mufrc ; while t heir miniflci
delivered a very pertinent Discourse.
At Rye, the day was observed with great pro
priety, an Oration was pronounced by the Rev.
Mr. Porter, minister of the town.
We never recollect to have heard of any pub
lic day, more generally observed.
COMMUNICATIONS EXETER
Exeter, Feb. 24, 1800.
Agreeably to the recommendation of
Cungrefs, the inhabitants of this town
devoted the forenoon of the 22d cur
rent, to public expfeffions of regret for
the death, and veneration for the mem
ory, of the distinguished PATRIOT,
the anniversary of whose birth was here
tofore celebrated on that day? : At 10
o'clock, the citizens, and many people
from the neighbouring towns, collected
at the Court-House ; and being proper
ly marfhalled, under the direction of
the Selectmen, walked in procession, at
about eleven, to the Rev. Mr. Row
land's Meeting-House, escorted by the
students of the Academy, under arms,
with a small band of music—the female
part of the town, and many strangers,
had pre.vioufly assembled—The procef
lion was honored by the presence of his
Excellency the Governor, the members
of the honorable Council, the Judges of
the Supreme Judicial Court, the Secre
tary and Treasurer of the State, and
several other public officers.
The public exercises were a pertinent
prayer by the Rev. Mr. Rowland ; a
very elegant and truly classical Oration
exhibiting a fair and just view of the
life, charader and services of the Illust
rious WASHINGTON, by the Hon.
JEREMIAH SMITH, Esq. and feve- I
ral well performed pieces of music
The pulpit and front gallery of the
Meeting-House, were Shrouded in black
for the occasion ; and the procession &
escort . exhibited the usual badges of1
mourning. The contrast between these [
expressions of deep public grief, and thej
demonstrations ofjoy, which formerly
diftinguiShed this day, was very striking,
and contributed greatly to increase the
solemnity of the feene,
Rev. M r . Buckminfter's Sermon.
MR. PEIRCE.
Through the medium of your paper,
Iwifh to express my gratitude to the
Rev. Mr. Buckminfter, for his truly
valuable difeourfe delivered in this
town, on Saturday last, the day ap
pointed by Cqpgrefs to pay due refpe&
to the memory of our late Illustrious
Washington. This difcdurfe, Should
be in the possession of every citizen in
America ; a few cents could not be
better laid out than in the purchase
of so admirable a sermon ; and it
is impoflible that time could be bet
ter employed than in perusing and
pradifing the precepts so pleasingly in
culcated ; and particularly, let me re
commend it at this important and criti
cal Electioneering period, that every
freeholder in this Stale, would avail
himfelf of one of these discourses ; it
may correct many mistaken ideas, re
fpe&ing the choice of Republican ruiers,
and be a mean of manifold buffings to 1
the State. yours, A. Z.
N. B. I wifli Mr. Peirce to thank you]
also for your exertions in so expeditious-!
ly handing this sermon to the public.—
Let me tell you, (without flattery) it
does you great credit, in the opinion of
the friends of good order, good laws &
good government.

TRIBUTE OF RESPECT.
At an entertainment given at Amsterdam, a
few years fince,the portrait of our beloved
Washington was exhibited as the chief deco
ration ol the room. When his health was
drank, a Batavian rising up, in his native lan
guage made the following apoftruphe; which
an American gentleman prefent^ requeued
I might be travel ited. Ttatfcenilchun has hand
led us a copy, which we here present. " See
I here a true likeucfs of a great and gallant Hero ;
Approach with due refpc&,oh ! human Friend,
and read in this republican, a Cato in Council;
a Caesar in the Field, a second Solon in his coun
try's cause ; a Hercules in the Political Tcm
peft ; a compliant Farmer, when olive branches
blossom ; the scourge and admiration of proud
Albion---A Hero who Fought tremendous ; but
who knew by his care, to prevent the spilling
of human blood •Columbia's bulwark, an
unclouded Sun, a Mars ; who by his knowledge
and courage, liberated a fourth part of the

WASHINGTON,
A gentleman in the northern part of the Rate
of Pehnfylvania, has fuccecded in annihilating
every savage ferocity of the Wolf of our Coun
try. The animal has so completely submitted
I to the rules of order and regular Government,
• that it follows him and obeys his direction with
I all the gravity of the mildest member of the
canine fpecics. In memory of its former bloody
propenfitics, and at once to chara&rife the
fyehophancy arid innate cruelty of its nature;
he has given the animal the appropriate appeL
lation of Talleyrand. , P bilad. Guz.
Welearn from Virginia, that Judge
Washington has taken possession foil
Ithe papers belonging to his great rela
tive; from which only materials for
: forming a just hiftory of liis life can be
; acquired ;—that no one has been per
mitted to peruse them, with a veiw to

not be permitted except to such person
as (hall be deemed qualified to do juft

MADRID, OCT. 29,
His catholic M^jefty has made a requisition
of 30 millions pf reals from his clergy in Eu
rope, and 36 millions ofreals from that of A
merica, without any form or previous condi
tion whatever. The deputies from the clergy,
who had nearly finished their deliberations on
the voluntary donation have been remanded to
their refpeaive parishes. It was supposed that
the King had received a Secret intimation that
the voluntary donation resolved upon, would
be far below expectations, wherefore it was
thought advifeable to dissolve their meeting.
On account of the deficiency in our revenue,
it is again in agitation to open a loan of three
millions in Holland, the filling of which is,
however much doubted.•

AUCTION, at Mr. Greenleaf's
Tavern, by Jacob Walden, Auction
eer, on Thursday the 13th day of March
inst. at 3 o'clock, P. M.
The DWELLING-HOUSE
of the Subscriber, and the LAND adjoin- \
ing, in two Lots, viz. one lot 69 feet on
Vaughan-street; So feet on Crofs-ftrect,
and 72 feet on the North line, having a
breadth of 6; feet at the Enft end of the
lot, with a good Well of Water within
those bounds, and a Pump to the Well.
The other lot is 134 feet on Crofs-ftreer,
which includes the House, and 9^ feet
deep: this lot affording a large paved
yard at the East end of the House and a
fufficient piece of ground for a garden at
the Weft end. Those premifi s have been
advertised for sale in one lot, but con
cluding that it may be more conducive
to the convenience of purcbafers to di.
vide it into two lots, I have done it so
as to render the division more eligible,
which may be observed and examined
by those whe incline tq became pure haf
ers, or inspected by other persons any day
previous to the Sale.
In a former advertisement, a descrip
tion of the House was given, which ren
ders unnecessary to add any thing further
in this ; as the Estate is generally known
to thole who it is probable will become
the purchasers, but any birt her particulars
us the Estate, also the conditions ^ pay
ment may be known (previous to the
falc) by applying to
Joshua Wentworth.
