The political, moral, and literary fitua
lion of the world at the present era, unfolds
the gates of a spacious field for (peculation,
a school for the politician; the statesman,
and philosopher ; a fujed of chatgrin and
disappointment to the restless, ambitious
soldier, and cause of infinite joy and fatif
faflion to the advocates of peace, the friends
of man. , . „
As Europe, the emporium of civilization,
and polite literature, which policies, and
forms the character and perpetuates the
happy influence of rational liberty upon the
body of society, has been the theatre on
which the great revolutionary drama has
been exhibited, our attention is more par
ticularly deeded to that quarter., Europe
being defined frorm her age, strength, and
progress in civil policy, religion and science,
to govern, indire&ly, the other three quar
ters of the globe ; every event which mate
rially, effeas the interests of her different
potentates, is conneaed in some degree,
wich the interests and policy of the other
nations of the earth.
Direaing our eyes towards France, we
Mbehold her, after a fuccefstul revolution of
nine years, crowning her conquers in the
subjugation of herfelf, afeended to the sum
mit of glory, but far beneath the zenith of
national happiness : she is the terror of her
humiliated cotemporaties, and from her
jiant strength, superior skill, and military en
terprise, is qualified to awe the powers of
ihe world. "Germany is no more able to
brave her viaorious arms, her soldiery
/lain, her wealth expended, and territory
wrested from her, the proud Adrian links

ATELESCOPE, of the value or upwards of 45

Mr. Herschel, and flopped from London, tor the
Royal Observatory ot Madrid. It fills to man
-packages as freight a whole ship. Another Telel
cope is co be completed under the lame direction,
for the Academy ot feiences at St. Petersburg, to
cost 5000 pounds.'

Portland, „:r 26.
Letters from South America confirm the
intelligence we have before received, of the
infamous treatment which the Americans
meet with in that quarter. The govern
ment of this country is bound to protest its
citizens against foreign oppreflion ; but of
what avail is the humanity of government,
if it has, by a left handed and crooked poli
cy, enfeebled itfclf in such a manner, as not
to be enabled to afford the relief demanded.
The insults which are offered to our flag, and
-the spoliations made on our commerce, by
the Spaniards, are but a repetition ot iuffer
ings, which have frequently been experien
ced by our merchants ; and while we con
tinue without a navy, we may be affdred ot
meeting them, as often as we afford the
means of gratifying the rapacity of avarice.
\Bofton Gazette.
The Government is able to protest her citizens
& will do it, so far as continent with the honor &
faith of the nation, but is unwilling to Sacrifice both
to silence the cabals of smugglers. Our refcour
es are not 8 pe ct. loans, neither are they extort
ed from an oppressed yeomonary, by odious and
tonneceffary taxes, but our government is rich in
the wealth of our citizens, and her treaufury is
more secure in the possession of iaividual patriots,
than the hands of speculators on the public, and
defrauders of the date, of which former adminis
tration affords ,tuple proof. , E.

SUMMARY.
Rebellious to her blunt defeated drafts,
Mocks her last agonies."
France is about bellowing a tribute of na
tional gratitude, which has coll them much
toil, gold, and blood. Some however have
discovered a reluctance to give so much ;
the celebrated Carnot has openly avowed
his disapprobation of the grateful extrava
gance. The Legion of honor, it is believ
ed will be honorably difeharged, having
met a spirited opposition, being considered
as tending to introduce a foecies of nobility.
The English house of Lords are quarrel
ing with their ex-miniftty about the late un
fortunate wan and degrading peace.
Pruflia is commencing the further dis
memberment of Germany, Alexander and
Frederic are to have an interview. The
British have acquired a new province in In
dia. The Porte has ordered a minitter plen
ipotentiary to France- New commercial
regulations have been adopted in France &
St. Domingo. The Louifinia business has
ceased its midnight rambles. The Ameri
can navigation is much embarrassed in the
River Piate, and it is reported that the doiv
are not so courteous as formerly. The U.
S. Frigate Elfex is ordered to Washington,
whether lorfreft) tvater cruise, is not known.
Some of the principal officers of govern
nent are about making a visit to the head
quarters of good principles. Different al
arms have been given, on the exigence of
malignant fevers in several of our principal
cities, but we have favorable advicesof their
havihg nearly subsided. It is to be hoped
that the authorities will vigilantly execute
the quarrantine laws, as a mean of prevent

England, utterly incapable of checking
the all conquering career ot domination,
on continent, is barely able to defend
her ownterritories ; her treasuries exatilted,
and her once warlike spirit, when habituat

fatal malady of defeat.

fears nothing from the east but the pet

difficulty of breathing, and excite fevers But the quality of this
valuable discovery are evidenced by perfectly o; polite effects. A
SINGLE TRIAL WILL PROVE that it restores the determination
of the fluids th the furface of the body, and brings on the com

of the ungs, breaches the acrimonious humours which irritate
the lungs, and finally discharges them. Thus striking at ibe root
of the difordcr, the symptoms are of course effectually and per
