On the titb of fan. afire happened at Augusta,

" Reflection whispers" that this poor creature
is unworthy the least notice from any woman
who has any consideration for herfelf, and I
would certainly suppress these lines, if the occa
sion did not afford me an opportunity of expres
sing my regret, that men incapable of diflipguifh
ing between right and wrong, merit and demerit,
sense and ignorance, Should ever arrive at the hon
orable occupation of Editors. Any blockhead
may learn to work well enough at the Press, but
there they ought always to remain.
M .
Are you not^a pitiful ignorant creature, to
take upon yonticlf the province of profcribirg
in this manner, so great a part of the human race,
without foundation and without any other evi
dence than that of the old maid, which you lug
in to your assistance ? and are you not a coward
ly wretch to throw out your venomous impu
dence againff so dcfencelefs a class as the unmar
ried females ? but know that when insult and
outrage extend beyond our Corre&ion, ^ have
brothers, fathers or friends who will grant us
protection.
" Forsake, then, these shadows of a shade,
which allure but to destroy, these ideal plea
sures on which you can reflea with no joy.—
Confidcr that the passions & inclinations of thy
youth are not the companions of old age ; they
tnuft fail ; and (if gratified without restraint)
will certainly give .you the he'art-burniugs of
repentance in the decline of life.' May Samed's
grey hairs be a crown of glory is the prayer of
Hamar"—And may all who read it call home
to reflection its application and infped their
®wn lives, is the desire of MARIA.

SOCIETIES of any considerable extent, are
composed of members of almofl every charac
ter &difpoficion; we find among them wife men
& fools; and virtuous and vicious of every class :
in short a scrutinizing eye, may here discover
every propensity and incident of the human
character, to which our language gives a name.
It will find too, in the female part of commu
nkies, as great a variety of character and dispo
sition as in the male ; but that any one person
Should undertake to proscribe a certain class of
a whole society indiscriminately as our Hinter ha,
done, is an abominable "outrage upon decency,"
Pray Mr. Hinter who are you, Where do you
live, what company do you frequent, and how
did you acquire the great knowledge of our sex,
which you think you possess ? As you have had
so much cunning and sense of shame left, as to
conceal your name, we are left at liberty to con
jedure answers to these questions. You are pro
bably some animal just out of the woods ; " lately
caught" — Your present residence muff
be among the lowed order of society, and your
company confined chiefly to that wretched part
of our sex, which the base fedudlive arts of vil
lainous men have reduced to the hioft abje& date
of misery.
To expose your unparalleled impudence and mean
ignorance is my only aim; your assertions are un
worthy of refutation. You do not confine your
outrage to any particular place, but extend it to
a certain class throughout the nation, and the
Whole world too, for aught I fee- and what
do you think of yourfelf ?
George Stearns of Watertown, on a complaint
to the Board of Health, of Boston, was appre
hended on Saturday last on a warrant for Sell

Another countryman was compelled, by the

into the Dock, on account of their being in too

" In the frolick of youth,! beheld thy wander
ings and thy gaiety without a painful sensation,
hoping that the corrective hand of time would
amend thy errors. But, alas.' lam deceived !
When thy beauty and thy mature age excited
the attention of man, and he fondly devoted his
time, and wickedly his talents to deceive and
render thee a prey, and a victim, at the un
hallowed shrine of criminal pleasure; then did
vain and falfe ideas usurp the throne of reason
and virtue, and expel the noble sentiments of
the foul. At the age of sixteen, I saw the toilet
and the glass engross thy time, and the tinsel
apparel of thy person thy utmost cart. How
the charms of thy youth and beauty, should be
most conspicuous was the criminal desire of thy
heart. Thy mind thou haft not cultivated
neither haft thou treafufed up understanding.
Thou must grope thro' life in the defarts of ig
norance, because of the negle& in thy youtft—
Thy conversation extends no farther than to
the fafhions and occurrences of the day. The
amufcments and dissipation of the world engross
the time that thou fhould'ft devote to the dis
charge of those duties, which the great Allah
has imposed on all his creatures.
'' The difeerning eye of thy father has beheld
with heart rending sorrow, the foibles of thy
early youth terminate in the criminal abuse of
thy time and thy talents. The great Allah
endowed thee by nature with the goodly gifts
of reason and wisdom. In bounty he dealt with
thee, and with ingratitude haft'thou rewarded
him. He spake thee into existence, and gave
thee an immortal spirit to direct thee according
to his immutable law of right. How thou haft
perverted thy understanding, listen to me and I
will inform thee.
MARTA No. 111.
IN my last number, I addressed myfelf to the
thobghtlefs youth, in the language of ma
ternal solicitude for his well being in the dan
gerous puffage through the Sylla and Charybdis
df time. I feel ano left degree.of anxiety for
those of my own tel, than for those of the o
ther, and, in the difeharge of my duty to both,
they will occaGonally be the undistinguished
fubjeds of my advice, and their conduct the
equal object of my criticism. No language of
mine can better clothe a fubjedt, nor no ideas
be better expressed, than the address of aged
Hamar, an Eastern prince, to his beloved
daughter Samed. The application of this an
cient and oriental tale, is so dired to our mod
ernftip-Jacks and coquetts, that it shall be re
cited in full from the original translation.
" Hamar bowed down with age, and
oppressed with a weight of cares, feels his dis
solution nigh. Samed thou art my daughter
and the child of my old age / before I leave
thee to g° where I shall bloom with eternal
youth , • before my body shall receive the fepul
tural rites, and before it shall be wrapped in
the shroud of death, receive the interested coun
fclof a parent.

" Whether the fates be propitious in
the present important national election,
or whether they be adverse, let us like
tyet citizens live honest and peaceable:
lives, under the administration of him,
who (hall be called to preside over this
great nation. And when the short pe-•
riod of his administration shall have
expired, if then it shall appear, that he
has not been faithful to his important
trull, that he has not uniformly aimed
at the honor, weal and independence of
these United States ; if it shall then
appear, that he has aimed in the lead
at felfaggrandizement, rather than his
country's glory, then let us be vigilant,
that we give our uriited fuffiages for
one, who ihall build up the watch
towers, he has broken down, and who
shall nobly retrieve the loft credit, ref
pedability and independence of this
great nation. If, like good and obedi
ent citizens, to good and Wholesome
laws, we nobly pursue this wife and
uniform course of conduct, ifwe cheer
fully yield our individual supports to
maintain order and perpetuate the peace
offociety, then may we jutily expeft the
blefW of heaven to accompany our !
exertions. Then shall our wilderness j
blossom as the rose, our figtrees will
flourifh, and our olives yield their oil
in profufe abundance. But if, on the
other hand, we rather choose to maintain
part^diftinßions, and keep alive this
unnatural war of conflicting principles,
then we may justly expect the frowns
and indignation of heaven upon us and
our country ; Infidelity will prevail, and
the solitary chriftian will be seen weep
ing o'er the untimely grave of holy
religion. We ffiall behold our cities
laid in ashes, our fields run o'er with
prickly thorns, our country the theatre
of savage brutality, and where now the
Olive and the Myrtle flourifh, will spring
up the Hemlock and Nightfoade."
" Aaron Burr was educated in the College of
New-Jersey, of which his father was President:
he was at 22 years of age, in 1776, aid-de-camp
to General Putnam, and diftfoguifhed himfelf in
so eminent a manner as an officer, that he was
telexed and appointed, by our beloved General
WASHINGTON, Lieutenant Colonel of one
of the 12 additional regiments, and served with
great reputation until after the battle of Mon
mouth, and the reduction of his regiment. His
eminence as a lawyer, his brilliant and unshaken
integrity when Attorney-General of Newyork,
whilst he represented that city in the Legisla

100 miles W. of Richmond, and 25 N. W. of

on the river Rapidonia, a N. W. branch of
James river. The mansion house, which is
spacious, and elegant, Hands on a mount, 500
feet above the circumjacent country, and com
mandsa view of about ,000 square miles. To
the W. and N. W. the Blue Ridge appears in
full view for nearly 70 miles. To the north
east, E. and S. as far as they can extend, is a flat,
plain country, and in the spring and summer
seasons appears like an extensive portion of the
ocean, except that here and there appears little
mounds, rising in the form of a sugar loaf. Mr.
Jefferfon has about 1100 acres of land under
cultivation— 320 of wheat, 160 of corn, 320 of
clover, 320 of peas, and potatoes, tilled and
managed by about 128 laborers. He carries on
the nailing business in which the negro boys of
about 12 years old are employed, who make
about a ton of nail, a month."

harnessed into a loaded Sleigh, which bypassing

conduct, made off with all speed, and have not
been heard offince. A pity that such. villains
go undete&ed. The traveller after lying at the

most fuccefsful privateers against the American

captured in a voyage of a few months, about
fifty American merchantmen, and is so fleet a
vessel that no one was ever able to overtake her,
previous to her falling in with'the Experiment.
She threw all her guns and caboose overboard,
which instead of expediting her, threw her so
much out of trim that the Experiment cafily
overtook her.
