Summaries difaver great ability, injorm
ation, and candour, in the Editor. We

From that tor March :6
" The address to Vice President Burr
at Baltimore, afforded an opportunity to
reprove the flattery into which popular
addresses had degenerated, and we trust
has restrained a pra&ice totally inconsist
ent with republican virtue. We may
defy the United States to exhibit a more
honorable welcome than Washington re
ceived at Salem from a Father of the
town, belonging to the Friends' Society.
Such sincerity and such simplicity are a
tribute most acceptable to generous vir#
tue. Mr. Jefferfon continues to rife in
public esteem, and the firft impressions
always powerful, are very favorable to
the hopes from his advancement. The
address of President Jefferfon, before he
took the oath of office, will remain with
posterity. His prolpe& of our rising
country inspires our ambition, his view
of conflicting opinions, recalls to mind
the ocean obedient to its laws even in
the tempest. The happy world of man
lies before him, while he defines the true
principles of Civil government, and
when he commands our confidence in
them, he makes us perceive that this
happy world is our own—Success to his
administration. The Coinage at the
Mint of the United States goes on, and
a sum above 500,000 dollars was issued
in 1800, in the various denominations of
our currency. Our voyages are renews
ed to France, but as some ports of that
Republic may be declared to be in a
state of blockade by the English, the
event interests the public mind. It was.
proper for the Centineljn which so much
has been said of Mr. Jefferson's df
belief of the Christian Religion, to omit
the following, in his speech : " Enlight
ened by a benign Religion, profeffed indeed
and praßifed in various forms, jet all of
them," &c: The reader has not forgot
the Centinel Jefferfoniad —in which the
present President was so handsomely ca
lumniated."
Extract from tbe Summary of the ityb March.
" Mr. Sedgwick, as Speaker of the House, bad
the thanks of that body by 40 to 36. The public
property of the United States in 'he city of Wash
ington, has been reckoned at 3,6.6,000 dollars.
Harper has published another letter to his conftit
vents on the fubje& of the late eledion of a Presi
dent. After a representation of the opposition
made in Congress, he fays, " Conceiving that train,
rue* sender fffirfa, Uas bitter that a fyaratin of
the Statu, and that tbe government might jaruima
bad ar aweak, adwaifration, but mnf be greatly en
dangered, if not certainly defrayed, by being left voitb
est a bead, they therefore give up the eppefition."—
This requires no comment. Party js always vo
tifereus about the low arts and low vices of the
eppofirfon. Worse inve&ives cannot be employ
"ed, thin have been freely spent upon Jefferfon &
bis friends, upon Gallatin and all foreigners, and
upon private gentlemen who have differed from
any prevalent opinion. With pleasure we can
turn to the charader, Mr. Jefferfon once support
ed in America, and drawn in the early years of
our revolution. Happy is the difeovery that it
remains confident. And we will not interrupt
the public hones that he will eftalililh the work
which he affixed in the beginning, upon a firm
foundation."

0e tatett foreign jiws
is compreffd in ths following Summary,from the
SALEM IMPAR. REGISTER, March 23.
From the left accounts b, the co, of England, ibepow
ers is the North of Europe persevered rather dejigie of
p^teßi^g th commerce „th North from th? optrattos
of B, it lb power or tbefea. It it agreed that th ncu
ir&l co&vsntion hat but figntds and st isfail open the
principles of the convention 0/1780, but at it it net
jot publijhed, its true Jpirit cannot be Gran. Tbe part
which Prussia has take* it jot a,crtt. Tbe great jea
leu, 6# the part of England, might induce ajuftictoH of
concurrence, but nothing can yet 6# affirmed. Ibat the
neutral convention embraces a mo, furious ofya, ice
may infer from the Speech of the King of England, that
informs the nation, that tbe Convention oj the North
was '' to efablife by force, a new code of Maritime
Law." It it fail, the Emperor oJ R.ffia bat been more
exafberand b, the la, Englife ordore, than by tveir de
predations, and it is affirmed, that the Eughjb infi, on
the re efablijbment of the Diplomatic relations, before
the, will consent to any conciliator, pojuru. Ibs,
accounts de net full, agree, but the, jatisj, us that the
Emperor of Raffia has declined no txpre,eoKS of bis re
feutment again, the Engfjb nation, and has in ever,
rtfpa offered them of bis purpojes. Ibe Ruffian ar.
suits continue to iocna,, and tbe- now, of the allies uj
the North will immediate!, cooft, of 47 jbips of tbe line.
The Danes are fortifying in the Senna, and sbeir re,l,
to tbe English charge des affairs, is conclude in regard
to their alliance with R^ia. We bear that a comma
nicatien has beta opened between tbe Ruffians and tbe
Dutch Republic, and feme commercial arrangements are
ex,card. ?befpeecb of tbe King of England and Ire
land discovers that tbe new code of Maritime Law is
judged " incen,feat with tbe inters,: of that country,"
Be,des other additional enpenfa, 20,000 men are to be
added to tbe English navy, and preparations are to be
made b, tbe exertions of individuals of ever, clefs to
anno, tbe Northern nations. It is said that petitions
for peace multiply in England, and that tbe fcarci, of
bread proaucesferious discontents. The Squadrons in
Bn,, Toulon, Rochefort ^ L'Orient are to be review
ed, and an army of observation was forming at Bear
dcaux. Much is (aid of tbe effairs of Portugal, and
tbe accounts are contradiaory. It is expeaed that tbe
French will invade that country. But as tbe late ne.
gotiations with Spain are fill secret, nothing can be
concluded on tbe jubjta. Tbe Englijb and Portuguese
have their oppreberfans from the French who are now
at liberty to a& in tbe South of Europe, as Prussia is in'
tbe North, and Russia in tbe Ea,. «he Turks are as
jealous of the French as tbe, are of the Ruffians, and
fear as much from them in the South, as tbe, do from
their Northern Neighbors. It is paid even tbe Ireat,
of Algiers with tbe French, has been reprobated at Con
,antmople. The Diplomatic bufinejs if tbe continent
of Europe is furfued with uncommon zeal. An Impe
rial courier puffed Munich tbe 24 fan.from Vienna for
Paris. One for do. from Copenhagen, sassed Hamburg
tbe iyb Jan. Dispatches are constant, and tbe Con
greys at Luneville continues. Reports fa, that tbe great
fuccejs of tbe French has dissolved tbe frengtb ts tbe
Emigrant forces, and that tbe Corps of Conde from va
rious causes bos been reduced to lets them 2000 men.
The approbation of President Jeffer
fon's Address has been general, if not
universal. At home our prosperity has
been great, amid all the evils we have
fuffered from depredations on our com#
merce. The value of the exports for one
year, ending Sept. 30, is 70,971,780 dis.

COMMUNICATED, toe late for left wetk.
Died, Mr. SbthEastman, of a pulmonary con
sumption, in the zzd year of his age—ln the me
lancholy records of our obituary, we have inferred
none whose loss is mingled with more heartfelt re
gret, than that of this young gentleman, with
whose friends we more feelingly fympaihize, in
this afflicting bereavement, and to whom we fain
would tender every tribute of human consolation,
to support them under this distressing dispensation
—Of a disposition that endeared him to all his
friends and acquaintance ; bleft with a mind firm,
original and comprehen five, which was cultivated
by a good education, just as he was entering on
the great theatre of lite, with the most flattering
profpeas, he was arrested on the threshold by the
hand of death, and those profoeds blasted in their
opening blossom ; affording a just though mourn
ful example, of the frailty of all calculations re
fpeding human feme and fortune. In all the vi
cissitudes of a lingering disorder, he bore its pains
and distresses with remarkable firmnefs and pa
tience, and met the approach of his dissolution,
with that fortitude and resignation to the will of
heaven, which not the bigot or superstitious en
thofiaft can difeover, but those only who possess a
conscience void of offence, and are supported by
a beliefin the plain, unperverted, and immortal
truths of true religion and phiiofophy. " And
desire shall fail, because man goeth to his long
home, and the mourners go about the streets : or
ever the silver cord be loosed, or the golden bowl
be broken, or the pitcher be broken at the foun
tain, or the wheel broken at the cistern. Then
shall the dust return to the earth as it was, and the
Spirit shall return tc God who gave it." The
volume of inspiration is replete with admonitions
of ourselves and our friends' liableness to be called
for at any moment, by our benevolent Maker ; &
pertinent extrads from it, under every recorded
instance of mortality, might have a tendency, a
mong other salutary things, to induce many to
drive to be prepared for that time that must come
to all ; and when their friends are taken from
them, to be resigned to the will of the Sovereign
Creator, who does all for the good of his creat
ures, and on whose goodness and mercy we mutt
all lean, and not on the pride or faith of man.
