A SUBSCRIPTION is going forward anion?
Tome men of large fortune for railing the fam
.to fit out a ffiip for 1 voyage of feience
in the South Seas, and round the world. Some of
the principal of the literati are engaged, in order
that observations and experiments may be made fa
every branch of humam knowledge. It is to include
an attempt to reach the North Pole. A party by
land, for the fake of obferv tions, are to cross the
continent of North-America, to meet the Ihip at
the port of Sir Francis Drake, to the north of Ca
lifornia. Sir Joseph Banks, and Dr. Heberden are
in the fubfeription, and Dr. Priestly is to make
the voyage. Lord Shelburne offers to be at the
expence of fehding a tauralift by land from Peterf
burgh to Kamfehatfka, to meet the ship there alfd.
A settlement is to be made and left at New-Zea
land, merely for the purpose of cultivating and
making experiments on the New-Zealand hemp,
and other curious plants, whicli may be examined
by residing two or three years there.
The plan now in agitation in France fe of fending
three frigates round the world on a voyage of dis
covery, in a fcientific scheme; no Jess than eleven
men celebrated for their literary pursuits, are named
for going out; ther^ wili be draftfmen, painters,
astronomers, mathematicians, botanists, mineralo
gists, &c. It is intended to rival the similar voya
ges made by order of tty; KQ¥&o<,an'd.
A letter from Lisbon has the following article:
the Americans having been treated by all ranks of
people with every mark of refpe&, are now become
our constant visitors, and opening a trade with them
has already been of great bene 't to us, and parti-
Cularly in Applying us with wheat, flour, &c. but it
has made our peo, e more indolent, lor while they
can draw corn from other countries they will give
themselves little trouble in cultivating their owh
lands. Our people love the American trade, and
seem to enjoy it, aS they find it of fach fervite that
they are fitting out more ffiips for thufe parts, and
allo for the Wed-Indies. Several of the American
gentlemen are lately arrived here to fettle some p ar
ticular affairs between this Court and the United
States.
All Europe seems now to fix its views on the
States of America. All commercial nations vie with
each other in forming connections with them. The
emigrations there from til Europe are very confix
derable, and augment daily; so that this rising
Republic, fituzted on a foil favourable in all refpe&s,
wili according to all appearance, loon become one
of the best peopled and mod flourishing countries
of the globe. Already the arts and trades are in
full vigour, by the number of artifls and woikmen
who continually fleck there from all parts.
Auft. 5 Letters from Peterfburgh mention that
M. de Samoifowitz hath inoculated several persons
for the plague, and that this operation, however
singular it may appear, hath had the desired success.
It is added, that he cured himfelf by rubbing the
part effe&ed with some pieces of ice. If fifth ex
periments juflify the success attributed to it, this
antidote my flop the progress of the contagion of
this terrible calamity.
A late Governor of , tired of war's al
larms, on bis return to England, had purchased a
villa in the vicinity of Greenwich, intending to en
joy for the remainder of his days, “ Otium cu»:
dignitate; ' and his lady being of an ceconotnicH
turn, and desirous of furnilhing the said ^i'/a on
the cheapest terms, made a point of frequenting
every auction in the neighbourhood, for the purpose
of picking up dead bargains. It so happened, that
the wife of a gardener, a new neighbour of her
ladyfllip, was conflantly led to the fame places with
a similar view; and whether it was that the tahe
of the latter was guided by that of the former, or
the fancies of both ladies ran in exa& parallel, we
will not pretend to determine; but so it was, the
No. 2176.
