young Alfred, a rich planter's son, hard by ;
he made propofol of marriage ; hisparents
were bitterly opposed, and endeavoured to
dissuade their son from so dangerous a match,
by setting before him the j„confequences;
that might follow, from raising one to low,
suddenly into an affluent irate— but all in
vain; ht affiAloa was f&violent it could not
be resisted—he married, brought her bred
to his father's house, and during the life ok
bis parents the behaved with tolerable de
cency ; but after their decease, looking up
on all to be her own, the soon gave specimen
of her unbounded ambition —thirst for plea #
fare and amusement, wherever file could hear
of a ball, entertainment, or public occasion,
file must gallop away with Alfred, and a ser
vant to wait upon her—She found fault with
every thing, in doors and out —gave her
Husband no rest, till he had turned away all
the old faithful servants, and employed a
new set, more agreeable indeed, to execute
her purposes ; but which proved, as so many
Mood-fuckers, to exhaust and dilb pate his
interest. The mansion-house, though de
cent and comfortable, must be ript up in
every apartment, and new regulations made,
agreeable to the highest tafte —New paint
ings, and carpets must be bought to orna
ment the rooms——New furniture of the
richest and most expensive kind. The cift
riage was not elegant, The must have one of
a better fashion—The horses were not fine
enough, the must have another set— The ta
ble was not rich enough, the must live mote
famptuoufly—Her gowns were not fit to
wfcar, (he must have others in a newer mode:
In short, every thing must be altered ;-and
me gave her hulband no rest till ihe had ef
fected her plans ; what the could not obtain
by talking and scolding, file carried by tears,
intermingled with some reproaches—By thHe
extravagant means, (he ran her husband
deeply in debt—he was harassed with duos—
- with threats—with executions —so that be
tween both, the continual taunts of an im
perial mistress at home, whom he had taken
off the dunghill, and the plague of impor
tunate creditors abroad—Poor ' Alfred had
no more peace of his life, than a toad under»
a harrow—worried, and tormented from day
today ; be, at length, took up the desperate
resolution to put an end to his exiftence —he<
accordingly went into bis chamber, and at
ler repeating the words of our motto, fired a
brace of balls through his heart. Dismal were
the outcries of Sylvias, upon this occasion. !
She lamented her folly when it was too late !
Let this be an admonition to all wives; and others,
cartfullj to guard against the intoxication of pro)-
ferity, and condua tbemfelves with moderation,
contentment, and sobriety ; conferring the truth
of that sacred sentence, —" Pride goetb before
" #eftruaion, and a haughty spirit before a fall,"
From the Newhampspire Gazette.
Mr. Melcher,
Please to give the following a place in your
next paper, and you will oblige many of
your customers.,
TWO every important caujes have lately been
determined by the fudges of the Supreme
;Federal Court, at Philadelphia ; that ver, un
precedented claim of the admirerators on the fate
of Eljbi Do.ne, agaifi John Pcuballow, Ejq.
J and others, o wners of the privateer M'CLARr;
atfo Corn Ate F^born, against Dorrance, for the
, recovery of an tfatf ofwhites Mr. Dorrance bad
been many years tn feofffon.
ThefirA cauJe is 4etermined in favor of Doane's
adminift rotors ; Thereby mat, reputable gentle
in tb^Xwa are become the fukjeQs of ruin
add diftrejsffcr supportingfupporting the laws of their own
State, again, the w, unjust demands on them
that ever dsjgraced the annals of an, nation.
The merits of this claim bad been decided b,
two Courts in this State, again, Doane, from
fobub no appeal mid be granted by an express
law of this State, puffed July 3, 1776 ; before
even independence was declared b, the American
Congress, at which time Newbampfare bad,arm
ed a government totally unconne&ed with all the
world, only by a delegation to a Congrefso, other
'Sovereign Colonies, so? the united defence again,
their common oppreffirs : All matters before this
'Cengrefs were advijory and recommendatory, and
required confirmation from every Colon, before the,
Jere binding on any. Tbimerits of this extra,
ordinary demand, have never been heard before
+„of the. Federal Courts. The pleadings only
.'have been before the fudges, whether an appellate
jurifdiaioo could be allowed (the laws of New
hampfeire, non-obfante) after Several bearings
before Commissioners and Circuit Courts, on the
r fleas of jurydiatom they have fuflaiued the ap
, foals, in violation of Newham,jhire laws. And
upon a writ of error at the Supreme Court of Phi-'\
ladelpbia, the Judges have again fu,ported the
jurifdiata of the Federal Courts ; all of which
'were in,midyears after this toffdin,r, cduft
bad been determined by two form, agreeable to
the then ex,ing laws of Newbam,fare, from
which no appal id,, in fapport of their opinions.
'TbeJaJ,, alUdge, that all power was in Con
grejs,^ Nov. 177^, and no da of any Colony
* c^ld invalidate day refolvrt the# modi ; this is
the whole ground upon which they ,and, and that
all Courts ofComm : ffiffiers appointed by Congr e ,,
mu, have appellatejurijdsQion in all prize c„,
^ even ttaghfab CommiJfaners were net then in
effe, at the time of appealMbit right would not
Ibove1 bove been denied, if Congre, lad beer, inters,cd
'U the armed vtfh. By this defoon the ,ve
r'ig^'J of Nevobampfrire is com,kill, annihilated,
its right of Inflation controverted, and the liber
ties and properties of its fufya? invaded, and
their perjoos liable to imprijonmtrt in a Baffile,
without even tfo privilege of B^il Bondi, for the
liberties of& Pri/on Yard ; tbefe are the bbffd
effects of our Federal Courts, publilb if in Gath,
publish it in the greets of Aftilon, publish it tbro'-
out the United States of America ! —Memorials
have been sent to Congrejs, which have been laid
bn the taole.f Rimerflrances have been prefent
cd, but, bofribile dietu, nothing done. „"
By the determination of the Fanhotae cause,
jome thousands of innocent fetthrs will be thrown
upon the public, and deprived of their habitations
which they bad fettled upon under thejurifdiaion
of Connthicut. grants. —This rapid increaft of
power in the Federal Courts of America, is be
come alarming, and verifies tbs opinion of one of
our firfl Patriots of 1775, (at a time which tried
men's fouls) one, who for many years was 1 Mem
ber of Gongreh, and even when tbefe Federal
Courts were f r fl instituted, this gentleman in a
letter to bis friend in this town, dated NeWyork,
Sept. 14. 1789,fa5, " The Judicial Billis now
under confederation of Congreji, tbs department I
dread, as an awful Tribunal—6, its inf itution
the Judges are completely independent, being Jecure
of,,their falariei, aid removable only by impeach
ment, net being iu^bjea to difcbarge on the addrcfs
of both Houjes, as is the case in Greatbritain, the
Courts have cognizance of common law, and ex
chequer caujes—^nd alje those of maritime and ad
miralty jurifdiaion, their power aljo extends to
criminal cases, and notwitbfanting the Supreme
Court, has original cognizance of caujes that will
fya the lives liberties and propertied of the citi
zens, and there is no appeal from this Tribunal,
they are not only Courts of law;but also of equity."

In this city a boatman appeared in tbs morning
with a large Orange cockade in bis bat, & exce
