Mr. Gideon Lamfon, - ’

Mr. George Odiorne,
» With plealure we inform tbe public, that
the President of the United State* hat ap
pointed the Hon. JOHN PICKERING,
Esq. Chief Justice of the Supreme Court
of this State, a Judge in the District
Cour t of the Un itbd St ates for t his
district, being vacated by the death of
Judgb Sullivan. This appointment is
truly gratifying to his numerous friends,
and highly pleasing to the people at large.-
The private virtues of this gentleman, ano
1 his lega talents Mt such, at tfiMnently
the unlawful wicked measures of
the ndw detested Jacobin fafiion.
—What wiH certain men amongst
us, fay now i nien who forgetting
every principle of reafori, judice.
Humanity, and true rhpiiblican^
ism, have for two years pall, fd
piously resigned themselves to ev
ery thirig done in France, and so
heartily cursed their fellow citi
zens; .who dared to think for
thfihlelves, and doubt the proprie*
ty of many feebes that have taken
place in that country.
It is asserted in the Paris pa
pe fs, that there is scarcely a Jingle
family in France, which has not
loft one or more of its members,
by the (hocking barbarities -that
have been exercised during the
reign of the last Jacobin tyfahtl.
Two gentlemen, lately arrived
from UArcahaye at New York,
report, that the principal inhabit,
ants of St. Marc, being tired,ciiher
of the English government, or of
the rigorous service they were for
ced to, had formed the projefi of
driving the Engblh garrison away,
and of rendering themselves mas
ters of the frigate Penelope; But
the plot being di (covered, the com
mander of the town demanded as
sistance of La Pointe, who being
himfelf harraffed by the insurgents
of the Quartier des Matheuxjound
it impoilible to march to St. Marc.
However, the commander of the
latter place succeeded m getting
40 of the ring leaders arrtfted,who
were sent to Jamaica. It is assur
ed that more then 150 in habit Ants
were concerned in the p-ot.
The Royahfts and Republicans,
by information from Capt. O’
NeiL, of the lb ip Knight; belong

To fothe of our best politicians,the Euro
pean attnofphere appears again .gathering
biacknefr—ibe storm, to them, is far from
subsiding—clouds arifein various quarters
—and a rttmbiing noise again is heard, of
embattled hotts preparing for the bloody
conflid.—We acknowledge, the appearan
ces, in part, but diflent from the inference,
that they argue a continuance of the War
To ptevedt the French fkom being the
foie didator? at a peach; it is neceflary that
the combined powers, particularly. England
and Auftria,fhould be prepared for cootin
utng the war—but with the greatest exer
tion of the whole coalition under their
prefect embarrafments, we think, there
is every appearance, they would prefer
granting the conventibn the most honora
ble peace the French nation e^er conclud
ed, to ri&iog another .campaign.
The report that the Em press of Russia
i >terd fending a number of and forces to
the aflidance of the coalition, the epteing
campaign is a most bai-efaced imposition,
fays a London paper. What Ihe may here
after do is uncertain—she has baseness of
heart enough to do any thing..
The original idea of altering the long
eftablilhed names of the year, month, and
days in France, rose out of a plan to aboh
ilh in the minds of the people the recol--
ledion of Sunday, and the consequent wor
ever, have not followed this Atheifticai sys
tem, bat still count the times as their Ah
cefibrs did. They fay they are too old to go
to ichodl to learn a new almanack. At
Paris, and among the Generals of the army,
the ne^i appelations only are pradtifed
If the revciu.tiohifts had carried their
point in this country, the months were to
