Burning of Princeton College.
Os the number of letters which we
'have seen, the following affords the
inoft particular account :
" At about one o'clock to day, I
discovered the college of this town to be
on fire, & before I reached it the cupole
was completely encircled with the
flame. A strong SSW. which then

Haze over the whole roof, threatening
.deftruaion at the fame time to a con
siderable part of the town—The flames

but were happily extinguished without
much injury being sustained. As all

" The candidate is requefled particularly to'

Dir of albrsl next, to be observed as a
Jay of Humiliation, Fafling and Prayer
throughout this State—and do recom
mend to Ministers and People, of every
denomination, to aflemble on said day,
it their refpedive places of public wor
ship; that we may with United And pen
:tent hearts confefs our fins, implore
torgivenefs, and entreat the Father of
mercies for his blessing upon us.
That fervent prayers be made to Al
- nighty God for his blessing on the Peo
ple and Government of this State, arid
of the United States :
That all who are in public authority
in our National and State Governments
may have wisdom to discern, and in
tegrity to pursue such measures as shall
promote the lading happiness of the
People—that they may a& worthy of
the several Rations in which they are
placed, considering themselves not only
as accountable to their fellow-men, but
to the Lord of the universe :
That a flop may be put to the pro
gress of those licentious opinions and
practices, which are so deftrudive to
Free Governments, and that Virtue,
Morality and Religion, as indispensably
necessary to their support, may revive
and flourifh : •
That the rich privileges, by which
we are diftinguifhedfrom other nations,
may be wifely improved and transmit
ted, unimpaired, to succeeding genera
tions, and that it may never be-said of
this highly favored Land, " they had a
price in their hands, but had not hearts
to use it aright t"
That it would please our Divine Ben
efaaor to overrule the seasons of the
year in mercy—bless our Agriculture,
Commerce and Fisheries—that we may
be preferred from wafting and conta
gious sickness, and the voice of Health
be heard in our Land :
That he would bestow his blessing on
our Literary Institutions, that they
may become more and more abundant
ly ufeful in promoting Virtue and Piety,
as well as ufeful Learning ; and the
riting generation be eminently prepared
for serving God and their country :
And above all, that pUre and unde
filed Religion may universally prevail,
and the precepts of the Gospel be known
and pradifed throughout the world.
And I do recommend that all per
sons religiously abstain from labor and
recreations unbecoming the solemnity
of the day. 1

DEN CUTTS,Supercargo of the brig Centaur,
Capt. Peirce. The loss ofa widowed mother,
who weeps a beloved son, is not the only loss
experienced by this severe stroke of Providence.
Community at Targe, and Commerce in particu
lar,have to lament the untimely death of a valu
able citizen, and enterprizing merchant, wbofe
virtues, and knowledge, bid fair to relief honor
on the place of his birth, and add felicities to
the circle of man universal. The date of life to
Mr. Cutts was Short, he had only advanced
four years beyond manhood. The early period
of twenty-five, marked him as the victim of the
relentless fevers of the ludian-lfles : But in this
momentary term, he had lived long enough.—
He had lived, to Show what virtue was. Youth
meriting this eulogy, has attained to a good old
age : They are full of days ; and full of honor.
Protra&ed life, may add a number of items to
the sum total of merit : But the grand account
is cancelled by two fi^pk charges. Piety and
Morals fettle the whole. These flood on the
credit fide of the intellectual ledger: Against
them, the royal law of heaven, enters no Debit.
On Monday morning,the 7th inst departed this
transitory life, Mrs. MERCY FRENCH, aged
23 years and 11 months, the amiable consort of
Daniel Frehch, Esq. Attorney at Law, Chester,
New-Hamplhire, and daughter to Maj. Brown,
of the fame place. An affectionate husband ; an
indulgent father ; a beloved ftepAnother ; a dar

infant son, mourn the irreparable loss of the best

why, should the charities of time, indulge these
felfifh sorrows 1 If ye loved me, said the depart

the objea of their warmest affections, hath

God, and co ours ? Did not the hope of this glo
rious exchange, the exchange of earth beneath,
for the heaven that is above; the bleft exchange,
of fleeting, unfribftantial dreams, for solid, arid
eternal joys, support, invigorate, and nerve, all
that was undying and immortal, to sustain the
long continued attacks, of cruel and rekntkfs
disease, which invaded the citadel of life at an
early hour, nor quitted that fatal hold, which k
held for many a revolving, painful month, until
at last, the last enemy triumphed for a moment,

In addition CO the diftreding particulars
which we have published, refolding the Ihip
Brutus, and her consorts, we have to add, that
it was Andrew Herron, who was killed in the
fall from the Brutus' fore-yard, .before the
fliip struck. He was a youag man of prudence,
industry, and warm affections ; a foreigner by
birth ; and had by his laborious exertions ac
quired a comfortable property. Had Heaven
spared him, he was, on the completion of this
voyage," to have been connected with a worthy
female of this town ; a circumstance which na
turally heightens the distress of the catastrophe,
and the public sympathy. George Pierce, of
Marblehead; was the person who was,drown
ed in attempting to get on shore. Benjamin
Ober, of Manchester, was found buried in the
fan< j and snow, where he had remained thirty
fix hours, and was taken out alive and perfectly
sensible, but he died soon after being brought
into a warm room. He said that he several
times heard the voices of people passing very
near him, and had attempted to make them hear
him, but in vain; he however used to hold out
one of his hands as a signal above the (now,
and through which he was enabled to breathe
by a final! aperture he,had made for that pur
pose. A little boy passing by on the Second day
after the storm difeovered “ the hand," and
hearing a faint groan, called immediate assist
