Ito fay by what particular in

ever, that in addition to the

general government to the In

principle characters among the
fix nations, were forne time
since employed to bring about
this definable end. But more
than all (and to its honour be
it Ipoken) there is reason to be
lieve, that the British govern

this pleasing profpeß. It is
but a few weeks agofince Prince
Edward, the fourth son of the
British King, addressed an af
lemblage of the fix nations at
Niagara, in a manner truly be

spoken a considerable time,and
with much good fenle. After
expatiating largely on the un

, Dec. 17.
.TWO persons were apprehend
ed yesterday in New York, for
attempting to pass counterfeit United
States Bank-Notes of sis? dollars.
One, in his confeffion, informed of a
third, who had left the city. Culbert
son. the high con(lab ! e,came over here
this morning,and topping at. Gifford's,
round a perlon resembling the descrip
tion of the party he was in q^eft of.
He was immediately apprehended,
and brought before Col. Cummings ;
on examination, rhev found :n the sole
o' a .pair of halfcbooL br fh^r cver
h,lls drawn over his boots; a plate for
Arising fifty dollars, wittf twenty-nine
bill, finished and fane#. friths fcle
of the other boot or overhaul, a parcel,
con'airfing sixty-seven bills ftruckoff,
but not Signed. He pretended the
irtmott furgrife at the difebvefy, and
that he k^ew nothing 6fthefe articles:
That one of the men apprehended in
New-York, had lent him these half
bop, of cloth to keep hi m warm,and
he fappofed they mutt have, hid these
things in them. This is a very paltry
fifyerfoge. He haj also a fiCy-dollar
bill in his packet bock, vhich he laid

had named one or t^o victories
over the arms of the United
States, yet they fhoold remem
ber that America is very pow
erful and warlike, and that she
is able to exterpate them from
the face of the earth : That
the hostile tribes ought to em
brace the prefect offers of peace
on the part of the United S rates,
led these fatal consequences
might in time follow.
" It appears to me th he the view
of the Kritilh court, to get their hands
on the country that we and the savages
are now contending for: The roamear
Congress cedes to the latter, the British
will strike up a bargain with them for
this desirable country—then will they
encourage the citizens of the Rates to
come over to them, which they will
not fail to do,whenever they are pleas
ed to be offended with the govern
ment. Thdfe ideas are hafttly thrown
together, and [ pray God may not be
verified."
A mbfl important DISCOVERY, to the
great benefit of the Commercial World.
A gentleman of South-Oarolina, by
way of experiment, had a Palmetto
T> ? sawed into sheathing boards ; a
boa twelve months part, he had a
final! vessel sheathed with it, and let
her run the whole summer without
once graving or cleaning, and on ex
amination, found her bottom as found
and untouched by worms, as the firit
day Ihe was sheathed. He had also
funk: a plank of the fame, which lay
under water for fix months : on tak
ing it up, it was not, only perfectly
found,but not even touched by worms,
and became as hard as oak. It is
well known, that from experience of
hear a century part, al! the wharves
in that ftace has been built with logs
of Palmetto, and has been found found
after twenty or thirty years.
the man who lent the boots gave him.
This daemon is very fortunate for
the p^blitk, asignorant people might
have been taken in. He breakfafted
in company with Mr. ^nd heard
him tell Gifford to take care of conn,
terfeit fifty dollar bill*, and relate the
particulars of the person apprehended
in York. Netwithfianding which, he
never haßened his departure, but lent
for a barber, and was under his hands
when apprehended. In his pocket book
was found, a piece of indifferent poe.
try about thirty lines of his own com.
posing and writing, describing a
counterfeiter of money being detected,
brought to the bar, holding up his
band, found guilty, and led to execu
tion—prophetick perhaps of his own
unhappy fate. This instance adds to
the namberlefs examples of unfuccefs
ful villainy and will serve to teach us,
that the straight path of virtue and
industry is the only road to competen
cy and happiaefs."—lt also serves to
prove (observes our correspondent who
communicates the extrad) how feeble
is the terror inspired by capital pun
ishments. This man seems to have
deliberately contemplated the confe
qoeqces of his crime,and yet the hopes
of impunity, have been Wronger
(han the fear of death.
Seven of the Wabaffi Indians,

Pitc had sent in notice to the
king of his wish to resign. This
if true, forebodes some extra

Ireland seem determined for a
reform, Mr. Pitt was the 6rft
to propose a reform in the par

with the people. This intro
duced him into parliament. —
He has ever since opposed a re
