when you, sir, at the head of our brave yeomanry
—under the benevolent hand ot a superintending
Providence—led onr troops to victory, on the ine
inoruble hills of Waiioorasack The people of
the adjacent count.es have resolved to celebrate
It on the consecrated ground. Fur this purpose
they have chosen a large and respectable com
mittee from the surrounding towns The Gover
nors ot the states of New York and Vermont will
be invited, and probably attend-Hundreds of
your fellow citizens who fought by your side, Ik
thousands of other Kvpublicaua will he present
«n.the pleasing occasion. Nothing, sir, can l>c
■wanting to make our joys complete but the pre
sence ot our venerable fiietul and commander,
whom with Amei ican pride, we style the Ilero of
Mtnnmgton.
In your patriotic address to ns of last year we
regret that you tell us that the oil is almost ex
tinguished in the lamp, and that age has render
■ d it impossible for you to attend : although we
are agnin pressed by your felltrw.citizens to give
you an invitation to come and join in the festivi
ties ol the day. The Toast, sir, which you sent
us in 1209, will contmue to vibrate with unceasing
pleasure in our ears Live free or die—Death is
7tot the greatest of evils
Never-never, Sir, shall we cease to recollect
with the most ardent affection the man who made
J)'1 arrangement, and who, at the lunril of his i
life, executed the plan with such decision and j
success And while your sword w.is waving .in!
the high places of th^ field, the cries of thou [
sands of «»ur distressed fellow-citizens like a
cloud rolled before the eternal 1 leaven heard— :
and led you and your braye fellow citizens to glo
Ty and to victory
Accept, dear General, the expression of our
xvaimest gratitude, and of our highest esteem, &

Dcrrytieud, 20ih Sept. 1810.
My Friends,
Yours of the 25th of July, is but
just received, inviting me again to pm lake of the
joys of your festival. Had not your letter be< n
stopped in its passage to me. it could litre made
ro difference—for it i9 now 82 years that I have
been in wear, and I am worn beyond alt hopes of
repair. The disease amt pain attending this lain
stage of life, render many of the eacroundii g
objects, that I once delighted in, indifferent to
me But if any thing could have excited my plea
sure, it would have been the being with you on
<he Ifilhof August A scene like shat mlm luu e
brought to my recollection thfc principal events of
my life I comd not but remember how British
tyranny arose, and how it yielded to the untutor
ed bravery of Demoeuacy: and particularly’, to
be upon that fortunate spot with so many of the
brave men who taught the tyrant's tools the hard
fa on.
. 1,1 ym,r leller, you praise m? extremely for be
»ng the fortunate commander of valiant men To
merit the praise of my country, 1ms bern a lead
ing motive of iny life—for un'meritted praise is
hut satire. Therefore we should be careful not
to b'l.uw too much praise unless we maun toss
Hrze.
Y u mention being pleased with the Toast 1
gave you last year. I have the b< at of. evidence
that the people of your rugged country do sm
corely accord with such sentiments—tor in ’77
you displayed evidence by practice And J have
nt doubt, if we bad a Congress now, who had the
resolution to express the will of the tuition, you
would be Jostiul as ready us you were then.
He assured of iny friendship .or yourselves and
foe rest <»t the inhabitants of tbe Green r-I.iun
ttiins, and accept my thanks for your respect.

The reader may make what he pleases of the
following-may ruminate on it, laugh at
it, spurn it, or believe it. i
To THE RIGHT ABOUT, WHESI. !
Bonaparte, who has often evinced undid
e.nt pliancy to bend to circumstances when he
could not force circumstances to bend to him_
fins prepared, it is whispered, to display ano
ther stroke of policy.
Ferdinand VII is to be king of Spain and
Portugiil
France may thus appease the resentments of'
the Spanish people, whom she could no« con
«p-r without great sacrifices-and the Spanish
c« ! mics in South America and elsewhere be
kept from revolt. Remaining attached to Spain
under the rumoured arreng -ment, the colonies
will he drawn from English connexions » and i
Ferdinand, being the devoted creature of Bona
parte, to whom he will be indebted for bis throne,
will doubtless co operate in eiery measure with
France ngainst England. Th.s proposed change
may account for the inactivity in Spain, &c.
Other reasons and results can be forth d, or cbn
Jectured by tbe political speculator—a; the a
gency of Austria,-tbe influence of the now
empress,—the disappointment of Joseph Napo
leon, and his future destiny,—the stipulated
overthrow of the Courts of inquisition (said to

A Nine Hour'* Wonder.
Little Brown, the roguish runaway Collec
tor from Ne w-Orlenrs, has made his appearance,
we Undent and at the C.ty of Washington ; an.i
it is < aily rxpected he will he followed by- colonel
Burr. This arrival causes great wonder in the
metropolis, we hear but wherefore, we are '
really at a loss to tell j for we can sec nothing
either new or surprising in this visit. Did n»-t
Ned Livingston violate a greater trust, deprive
the public of between 50 and 100 thousand dol
lars, and seek refuge at New Orleans—the un
fortunate place of resort to all off scowrlngs of
our country — And did not thik man return to
Washington ? Yes, good people of the United
States, he did re turn to Washington—where he
"was caressed, and figured in the beau monde,
from the drawing room to the second grade
tea-parties. Ami what is more, lie made a pow
erful interest in congress •— who exerted every
nerve, with John Randolph at their head, to give
film the public property at New Orleans called
lie Batture, which is worth a million of dollars.
And why should not little Brown be received,
and entertained, and provided for—His crime is
not as gre'al as 1 i-ingston’*, and his temptations
■were much stranger. The only distinction he
tween the two we can discern is—that Brown
has lost tiis.money, that Brown is poor and friend
less i and that Livingston is hacked by power
and wealth Yst we remember a time when
the generous breast preferred the cans" iff the
helpless.-fb MANY.

Ch atu.f.stov, Oct. 1. Oil Saturday list
was committed to the jail in this city under
a warrant from James Bentham, Ksq. Jcimen
U'urrrn Oliver, for robbing the mail of the
U. Smte3. It appears that Oliver had been
employed in driving the mail stage between
Georgetown and Santee Ferry for some
years pas', and that he was considered a
mong the most confidential drivers on that
line. Three mails sent from this city on
the. 6th, 22nd and 25 h of August last, for
Fayettville, were discovered by the Fust,
master at that place to be missing ; as was
also the mail which should have reached
this city on the 15th September. These
facts having come to the know'edg of the
postmaster in this place, he communicated
the same to Mr Cotton, the contractor.—
This latter gentleman who displays a hir'i
ly laudable zeal in the execution of the du
ties of his contract, from certain circumstan
ces, suspected Oliver to be the per* n gnil
ty of the robbery; and as he had just set
out under leave, on a journey to visit his
relations in North Carolina, Mr. Cotton de
termined on immediately pursuing him, and ■
with the assistance of some of thccohtracJ
tors and others he was enabled ;o overtake !
him a few miles this side of K deigh in U. !

six or seven hundred dollars were found up j
on him, a part of his plunder, lie has since i

SUPPOSES.
Suftfibtte that France bus taken ua at our

her Ed»cts, hs that they shall cease to vio
late ihe neutral commerce of the U S
Hu/ifioae that the President shall issue his
Ppolamation whenever ihe.e Decrees shall
cease >be in force :
IT* T.ies;* Suppositions are not at all im |
pru i b e. as the one is founded on/acta pret
t ttt J unhenticated, and the other on a pos
itivt law :
Su/ifiO’iC, that O Britain should refuse to
repeal . il her CTd rs; or, that she re
peals tr- m and then revives them in some
new shape ; and m ‘he very teeth of nation
al. hiw and neutral rights, she proclaims p >rts
or i oasts under blockade, by a single dash of
her pen:
UT* 1 hese Suppcsiiii.iis are supported, as
well by the uniform tenor of her history, as
by the opinions of thbse, who are from the
ver; verge, of her court
Su/ fi 8' then, that France no longer in
teid'r. - iti" trade, with England, but that
the lat e f rbid- us to g> to Francs, what
then i-, the ie>,urce of the U. S ?
An Embargo is now out of the question—
because we shall have pledged ourselves to
F-ar.ee to continue our trade with herself,
wh.l-r we iirerdict it to her enemy :
Htt/ifioac. then, that G. B. still proclaims,!
thronga herO tiers, that w.; shall not carry !
on tins lucrative commerce with France and !
i the continent ; that she will seize all our 1
1 vessels hound thither ; and that she actually
dots seize them, 'hus engaged in a fair and
lawful rade—What then shall we do?
We must either permit our merchantmen
to protect themselves—or we must p-otect
them, bv the national force—They must ei
ther arm themse'ves ; or we must grant
th**m convoy —In either case a conflict with
the arrogant naval power e>!' G. B. is to be
expected.—If they are privil geil to arm ;
though some of them m..y find it cheaper to
go under a British license Iran under arms,
yet there are others who will fly from this
ignominious resource -and these will run
every risk of a rencontre wi;h British ships.
— H we resort to a convoy, it is not very
likely that we shall adopt such a c< dr of
regulations, as will be acceptable to British
| “ naval supremacy”—in that case, our na
tional flag may once more be Cheaafirukrd.
Bet us look .hen fairly anil resolutely at
our situation. A crisis may probably be at
hand witch is calculated to call forth the
resources and energy of the nation. Our
navy must be < qu.pt, not o ily to execute
our mm intercourse law. but to meet a mure
hostile extremi'v. If money be wanting
these are not such time as when an 8 per cent,
loan was obtained-‘or the crisis now is
far worse than that—•— ucli times ib 'hese,
have scarcely ever been witnessed try civili
zed nations-—so little regard for tights, so
strong a rage for power and plunder -—But
the U States have not only to struggle tim
gainst the times themselves but also the con
sequences of their own imbecility Ourcna
racter is sunk in the eyes of Europe_
many cxertio is are necrssarv to restore it to j
its elevation-We shall s*ill continue to :
Ire maltreated hy G B. untill we convince
her that there is a point of wufTerance be
yond which we will no pass—Sue c.tlcu.
