Poetry. NEAR yonder cot upon the moor, Whose grey smoke winds many a curl, Knitting beside the cottage door, I met this morn a lovely girl. With many a modest damsel oft, I've squander'd foolishly my time, Play'd with their hands and cheeks so soft, Or hitch'd them into many a rhyme. But when I turn'd to go away, My bosom felt no tickling pain, And scarcely did I hear them say, I'd thank you, sir, to call again. But when I saw this lass so fair, Her floating eye so blue and round, Its lustre I could no more bear, But bashful look'd upon the ground. My jealous pride then took alarm, Face her, it whisper'd o'er and o'er, Look up, she cannot do thee harm, Did'st thou ne'er see a girl before? Rous'd from the dream, I rais'd my hat And thought some civil thing to say; I look'd, my heart went pit a pat, And glad was I to get away. Yet though I hurried from her sight, Roam wheresoe'er my footsteps will, That full blue eye, that face so bright, Will HAUNT ME, LIKE A SCEPTRE, STILL.
Miscellany. From the Baltimore Federal Gazette. IT is an observation made by Montaigne, that fine flourishes serve to amuse the ignorant. There are, perhaps, few men in this country who have shewn more skill in this manufacture than our present Presi- dent. We shall select one or two ex- amples, by way of illustrating this po- sition. "We are all federalists, we are all republicans." "To prepare for war, when there is no war, would be to waste the public resource, which ought to be husbanded for actual war." Now all this, saving Mr. Jeffersons presence, is no better than false mo- ney, notwithstanding it has been ut- tered for current coin. If we may be permitted to change the metaphor, it is a draught which, taken by the ig- norant, first intoxicates and then stu- pifies, rendering them averse to the taste of plain sense or whole some truth. Drunk, and reeling with such be- verage, to them "fair is foul, and foul is fair." The fabled cup of Circe never wrought more astonishing transfor- mations. They see a sky without clouds—"feats of milk and ships of amber." They imagine themselves invincible, and superior to all other men. Every thing appears in a new light. They think the country well prepared when all points of it are in a state of imbecility. They believe they can fight without arms, and con- quer without discipline; that they can prevent the landing of an enemy without fortifications, and beat off fleets with a moveable cannon and a few silly gun boats. "The progress of sentiment (says Mr. Jefferson, in his answer to an address by the Legislature of Massa- chusetts) in the great body of our fel- low-citizens of Massachusetts, and the increasing support of their opin- ion, I have seen with satisfaction, and was ever confident I should see; per- suaded that an enlightened people, whenever they should view impartial- ly the course we have pursued, could never with our measures had been re- versed—could never desire, that the expenses of government should have been increased, taxes multiplied, debt accumulated, war undertaken, and the tomahawk and scalping knife left in the hands of our neighbors, rather than the hoe and the plough." —Jefferson.
What ought to be the wishes of an enlightened people, proud of their inde- pendence, and determined to main- tain it? Ought the mere cost of pre- parations to deter them from provid- ing themselves with the means to defend their rights?—Let us not be misunderstood: we do not propose that war should be resorted to on ev- ery slight provocation or frivolous pre- text, or that war should be underta-
ken at all, unless indispensable to the preservation of these rights without which a people can neither be free or independent. We would say, in contradiction to such deceptions flourishes, what has been said a thousand times before, that it is a duty incumbent upon a na- tion, to make its war arrangements in time of peace, that it may not fall a prey to ambitious neighbors, or be found unprepared when war becomes inevita- ble. Such has been the language of wise legislators, in all ages of the world.— Such was the language of Washing- ton, when he filled the office of pre- sident. "I cannot (said this illustrious pa- riot to Congress in one of his speeches) recommend to your notice measures for the fulfilment of our duties to the rest of the world, without again pre- facing you with the necessity of placing ourselves in a condition of complete de- fence, and of exacting from them the fulfilments of their duties towards us. The United States ought not to in- dulge a persuasion, that, contrary to the order of human events, they will forever keep at a distance those pain- ful appeals to arms, with which the history of every other nation abounds —There is a rank due to the United States among nations which will be withheld, if not absolutely lost, by the reputation of weakness. If we de- sire to secure peace, one of the most powerful instruments of our rising prosperity, it must be known that we are at all times ready for war." In conformity with this advice ships of war were built, the military art cherished, the militia organized, peaceful arrangements adopted with the Indians, in which the hoe and the plough were substituted for the tomahawk and scalping knife, and a system of fortifications commenced for the protection of our harbours and frontiers. The system of defence, commenc- ed by Washington, was continued by his immediate successor. Under Mr. Adams the foundation he had laid for our navy, was enlarged; a mili- tary school established, intended to form engineers, "out of our own na- tive materials; men qualified to place the country in a proper posture of defence, to infuse science into our army, and to give to our fortification that degree of force, connection and perfection, which can alone counter- balance the superiority of attack over defence." "A slight attention to circumstan- ces, and the actual position of our country, must lead to the conviction that a well connected series of fortifi- cations, is an object of the highest im- portance in the United States, not only as they will be conclusive to the general security, but as a mean of lessening the necessity, and conse- quently the expense, of a large mili- tary establishment." "By strongly fortifying our har- bours and frontiers, we may reasona- bly expect either to keep at a distance the calamities of war or render it less injurious when it shall happen. It is behind these ponderous masses only that a small number of men can maintain themselves for a length of time against superior forces. Impos- sible therefore upon an enemy, who may have every thing to transport a- cross the Atlantic, the necessity of undertaking long and hazardous se- ges, increasing the chances against his undertaking them at all; or if he does in despite of such circumstances, in- fures to us, the time he must con- sume in his operations, to rally our means to a point, and unite our ef- forts to resist him." Some may think it impossible to read these observations, and not ac- knowledge their force; and yet a sin- gle flourish of the pen by Mr. Jeffer- son, can set them at nought. He has only to observe, "wise men could never desire that the expenses of government should be increased, taxes multiplied, accumulated, wars undertaken, and the tomahawk and scalping knife left in the hands of our
neighbours, rather than the hoe and plough," and the whole system crum- bles into nothing. This flourish silences ignorance and avarice; something however seems still wanting to soothe poor human reason. Thomas Paine ap- pears on the stage, and publishes in a Newyork paper, that the whole art of defence is comprised in a Polygon, which, says he, any one may discov- er, as I did, by merely looking into any Dictionary or Encyclopedia, under the article fortification. Taking this for a principle he proceeds: A place that cannot be inclosed in a Polygon cannot be fortified. Newyork can- not be inclosed in a polygon, there- fore Newyork cannot be fortified, nor consequently, according to this en- gineer, any town on the sea-board, for not one of them, we believe, strict- ly speaking can be inclosed in a Poly- gon. This beautiful proof of syllogism, of the inutility of fortifications for our harbours, is gravely copied into the government paper at Washington. Thus the United States are to be left open to every invader, and their rank among nations lost in the resu- tation of their weakness.
RUSSIA. Russia has for many ages attracted the attention of the geographer, the politician, and the political economist; and never was this mighty empire more deserving of our contemplation than at the pre- sent period. The following def- cription of the Russian character will be perused with a double in- terest; because the describer is Dr. Aiken, England's second Addi- son.]—Port Folio.
The people who inhabit the wild regions of Russia, are for the most part of Sclavonic blood, and of Asi- atic origin; their progenitors were known by the name of Sarmatians. Long disunited among themselves, and in a state of barbarism, they were reduced in the thirteenth century to vassalage under the Tartars. From this condition they were rescued in the fifteenth century by their Czar, Ivan Basilowitz, who with his grand- son, of the same name, (men of vig- or and talents, though rude and fero- cious) extended their Russian domin- ion, and made the nation known throughout Europe. Succeeding Sovereigns, among whom Peter I. and Catharine II. were pre-eminent, not only enlarged their territories, but promoted civilization and improve- ment of every kind; and at length raised the Russian empire to the dig- nity of a first rate European power. The Russian national character appears to be marked with sedateness and tranquility, mixed with liveliness and sociability. They are hospitable and good tempered among one another, capable of strong attachments, fa- gacious and patient of hardships. The servitude in which the lower classes live, and the despotic rule ex- ercised over the highest, have made them supple, cunning and crouching. Manly elevation of soul with steady principle, are rarely met with among them. The ancient nobility have vast estates, which they reckon by the number of vassals with which they are stocked: and they live in a kind of rude magnificence, shunning the court and public employments.
The Russian peasantry are remark- able for their readiness in acquiring the common arts of life, several of which they exercise for domestic pur- poses. In the higher departments of intellect, nothing masterly or original has yet appeared among them, which may perhaps be owing to their recent civilization. Their implicit obedi- ence, joined with natural robustness of constitution and habit of endure- ance, renders them excellent soldiers in the modern practice of war, where mechanical discipline is more requi- site than enthusiastic ardor. They think at no danger or fatigue, and are only to be conquered by exter- mination.

Foreign Intelligence.
[Capture of Alexandria.]
LONDON, MAY 10.
Last night's Gazette contains official dispatches from Gen. Frazier, and Commodore Hollowell, dated Alexandria, (Egypt) March 25, 1807, announcing the surrender by capitulation, of the town and forresses of that place, with two Turkish frigates and a corvette on the morning of the 21st March. The expedition sailed from Messina, conveyed by the Tiger, of 80 guns, and Appollo 38, with 23 transports. The Turks opposed the attack of the troops: but on the city being summoned by Gen. Frazier the Governor capitulated. The British force which landed, was about 1000 having Major General Wauchase, Brigadier General Stuart, &c. with them. The capitulation is signed by Gen. Frazier, and Commodore Hollowell on the part of the British; and by Leid Mahamed Naim Effendi, Hagg Mahamet Katep, and Sleg Ibrahim Sasa: and stipulates, that the Turkish troops and seamen shall be prisoners of war; that the vessels and all public property shall be given to the British; but private property to be respected. The British loss in the attack was 1 officer, 1 sergeant, and 8 privates, wounded. The frigates captured, mounted one 40, one 36 and the other 18 guns, all brass. Detachments had been sent to take Rosetta and Rachmanie.
Foreign Office Downing Street, May 13.
The Right Hon. George Canning, his Majesty's Principal Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, has this day notified to the Ministers of Friendly and Neutral Powers resident at this Court, that in consequence of the recent hostile proceedings of the Ottoman court, his Majesty has judged it expedient to direct that the blockade of the Straits of the Dardanelles, and the port and harbor of Smyrna, already constituted by his Majesty's naval forces and those of his allies, should be maintained and enforced in the strictest manner, according to the usages of war acknowledged and allowed in similar cases.
This Gazette likewise contains an order of the Privy Council for laying an embargo upon all ships and vessels belonging to the Grand Signior; likewise an order permitting his Majesty's subjects to trade with Monte-Viedo and its dependencies; and twenty two addresses, thanking his Majesty for refusing to agree to the Roman Catholic bill, proposed by the late administration.
As we last night predicted, the new ministers are resolved to make no concessions to America.
LONDON, MAY 15.
Some intelligence have been received in town from the fleet of Lord Collingwood off Cadiz. It states in substance, that the combined French and Spanish fleets had of late evinced no intention of attempting an escape, and still less of forcing their passage. The French Admiral had, indeed, some weeks since, made one attempt-out having learned the defeat of his countrymen in the battle of Eylau, he had returned into the harbor, firing his minute guns and hoisting every sail.
The secret expedition now fitting out, it is said, will consist of from 15 to 20,000 men. The German legion, four companies of artillery, the rifle battalion of the 80th regiment, besides some other regiments, are to form a part of the force employed in this expedition.
Two reports have been in circulation for the last two or three days, for which, we fear there is scarcely any foundation one, that a serious negotiation has actually been begun on the continent—and the other, that Buenos Ayres had been recaptured.
MAY 16.
Three mails arrived at a late hour last night from Toulon, with letters and papers from Hamburg, to the 10th inst. They state that the King of Sweden has refused to ratify the armistice, and disgraced General Von Essen for concluding it. The French are making active preparations for a great battle, and a retreat, in case of a defeat. Among the latter, is the fortification of Thorn, which are carried on with activity.
The French have taken possession of the Islands of Usedom and Wolin, in pursuance of the armistice which the King of Sweden has not ratified.
The Swedish troops in Pomerania receive considerable reinforcements. The Swedish General Engelbrecht, is arrived at Konigsberg, with dispatches from his Swedish Majesty.
Yesterday were received Hamburg papers to the 6th, and Dutch to the 12th inst. The latter contain the seventy-first and seventy-second Bulletins of the grand army, dated April 19th, and 23d, respectively. Bonaparte's head-
quarters still remained at the Castle of Finckenstein, and the army had been two months quiet in its cantonments. It is matter of surprise, that the active Cossacks should allow this long repose and opportunity to recruit its strength, and establish magazines. Some will, no doubt, account for it, by presuming that there is a subsisting negotiation for peace. The tone which Bonaparte has adopted towards Sweden, is in unison with this idea. He who used to indulge so freely in taunt and sarcasm against that power, now breathes nothing but kindness and conciliation. The only exception to the general tranquility of the armies, are the sieges of Colberg and Dantzic, which are prosecuted with activity. The bulletins contain scarcely any thing else of a military character.
The eldest son of King Louis of Holland, the intended successor of the Emperor Napoleon, of France, died lately at the Hague.
According to advices received from Morocco, the Emperor has solemnly declared war against Russia and England. The Dey of Algiers and Tripoli have followed this example; and there are, at this moment, a great number of the barbarian corsairs cruising in the Mediterranean.
The French papers contain an article, dated Constantinople, April 1, which says, "Certain intelligence has been received of the Anglo-Russian fleet having quitted the road of Tenedos of Tenedos. There are only nine or ten vessels of the line cruising off the entrance of the Dardanelles."
The two grand armies are reported to be preparing for a dreadful combat. The main armies of each party are to be divided into three principal corps. Those of the allies are to be respectively commanded by the Emperor of Russia, his Prussian Majesty, and the Grand Duke Constantine, counselled and assisted by Generals Bennigsen, Ruchel, Blucher, and others who have distinguished themselves during the campaign. Both armies it is said, only wait the return of favorable weather to re-commence hostilities. The propositions of Bonaparte to the Courts of Russia and Prussia, are stated to have met with a positive rejection. The intelligence to this effect comes from various quarters, and is confirmed by the journals under the control of Bonaparte.
THE PRINCESS OF WALES.
The Drawing Room announced to be held yesterday, by her Majesty, at St. James's Palace, excited more public attention than any that has been held for a number of years past, owing to a general rumour that the Princess of Wales would be present, after an absence from Court for about two years.
The Duke of Cumberland, who was in attendance in his Court dress, in a private apartment, near the garden gate, gave directions to be informed as soon as the Princess of Wales's carriage was approaching, which was accordingly done, and his Royal Highness was at the door when the Princess's carriage stopped; as soon as it halted, the populace gave three cheers, at which she appeared much affected. Her Royal Highness appeared in good health, and was in mourning for her Royal Father.
Affairs of Turkey.
A Russian courier has arrived here from Turkey, and brought eleven Tails (Turkish standards) taken in a victory gained by the Russians over the Turks, on the Danube, in which they lost 4000 men. The Russian General Michelsson was said to be within 45 miles of Constantinople.
CONSTANTINOPLE, MARCH 28.
Every thing proves that the damage sustained by the English fleet must have been more considerable than was at first imagined. On the 4th one of the largest of the English ships of the line sunk off Tenedos, which makes their loss in consequence of this enterprize amount to four ships. Our government has made great exertions in strengthening the works. Three hundred pieces of ordnance have been sent from the arsenals and the necessary furnaces are prepared for firing red hot shot. Not a single order is given to the army or the navy of which the French Ambassador Sebastian is not informed. He confers every day several hours with our Ministers, and is constantly sending off couriers or receiving dispatches from Warsaw. It is believed the enemy will next attempt to excite an insurrection among the Greek inhabitants of the Continent, or to take possession of some of the Islands in the Archipelago. The latter will doubtless be the object of the English to strengthen themselves in the Mediterranean.
PULTUSK, APRIL 7.
Marshal Messena, with many Generals, is here.—Provisions are excessively scarce. The roads are not yet passable; and, if the weather was good, military operations cannot commence under a month.

Burr's Trial.
RICHMOND, JUNE 13.
This morning General Wilkinson arrived in this city—He landed on Wednesday morning at Hampton, passenger in the U. S. Schooner Revenge, from New Orleans.
Both parties appeared pleased with this event.—Mr. Burr, because he shall have a speedy trial.—And the Ministerial Prosecutors because they hope his evidence will serve to hang Burr.—Mr. Randolph late Secretary of State, has described this General Wilkinson, in one of his speeches before the Court, as the "Alpha and Omega of the Presidential prosecution: who to is support, by his evidence, the sing-song and the ballads of treason and conspiracy, which we have had delivered from one extremity of the continent to the other.—The Funeral Pile of the prosecution already prepared by the hands of the public Attorney, only want but the torch of James Wilkinson to kindle it to a fatal blaze.—He is to be the chief Character in the Tragedy of Burr; and to officiate as the High Priest of this human sacrifice."
The following article is from the Tennessee Gazette, of April 25:—
"We have frequently predicted that gen. Wilkinson, from his late (and part of his former) conduct, would be broke. We can now, from unquestionable authority, say, that he will no longer hold the office of Commander in Chief. His late actions have become so symmetrical to those of Robespierre, that if the President of the United States does not take notice of him, he will no longer be viewed as a person worthy the office he now holds." [Certainly the writer of the above article ought to receive a patent for his discovery.]
FROM A NEW ORLEANS PAPER.
Extract from Col. Butler's defence when tried by a Court Martial sometime since.
An officer commanding at Fort ***** ordered a sergeant major to flog a citizen, and the sergeant major remonstrated against the order. This only exasperated the officer, who threatened to shoot the sergeant major for disobedience. The sergeant major then tied up the citizen and had him flogged.—For this offence the sergeant major was afterwards tried, not by civil tribunal, but by a court martial. The sergeant major relied on his order which he was compelled to obey under the penalty of death, if he refused. The officer appeared as a witness in his behalf, and generously avowed the order and threat; and even acknowledged that the sergeant major had not flogged the man, that he would have shot him. This defence did not prevail. The sergeant major was convicted, and sentenced to be degraded to a private, and receive one hundred lashes.
General Wilkinson approved the sentence, and it was accordingly carried into execution.
COMMUNICATION.
By a gentleman who has resided in Virginia.
An attempt has long been making towards an essay for a preparation to begin the preliminary steps towards the trial of Aaron Burr; provided the Grand Jury find a bill against him for either a Misdemeanor or Treason. At the present rapid state of proceeding, it is highly probable we shall know the result sometime between Harvest and Christmas.
One great cause of the slowness and difficulty, is the abundant paucity of legal and other talent on the part of government's Counsel. There is George Hay, the District Attorney for Virginia, so appointed for his written ravings against the sedition act; the same that defeated Callender; the same that gave such " lame and impotent" testimony in the trial of Judge Chase; the same that, to speak with perfect truth, is as far removed from a Curran or Erskine, as from here to the other side of the Atlantic—he is one. The next, is Alexander McRae, the would be Governor of Virginia. He is a gentleman with a great mouth, though little greatness escapes from it. If these men had as much talent and candor as they have vengeance and vehemence, they would be so altered, their best friends would not know them. The other is the author of the "British Spy," Mr. Wirt, who would do no hurt to any body. Cesar A. Rodney has business elsewhere, or modestly declines, "the unequal combat." Why half of Luther Martin is heavy enough to grind to powder a dozen of these "ordinary sal work" of law, not to say a word of E. Randolph, Wickam, or Botts.—There will be no need to this prosecution, 'till Mr. Jefferson regains his wits, and sends for the author of the "Farmer's letters," the celebrated pleader "more or less," in the famous sugar cause; the twin-brother of Junius, and descendant in a straight line from my Lord Coke. Let him once get over his points, and he could convince a Jury that Burr had conspired to commit treason and adultery all the way up and down the Ohio; and if this were not sufficient, we would have him indicted, convicted and hung for suicide. Such, and so irresistible is eloquence.
[Bos. Gaz.]
It is highly probable, says a correspondent that the important trial now pending at Richmond, will terminate in Col. Burr's being convicted of the Horse-Alt —as Mr. Botts, attorney for the defendant, strongly opposes the operations of Mr. Hay, and most of the jury are members of the Jockey-Club .—Our correspondent adds, that, in case of conviction, Mr. Duane is of opinion that he ought to ride quarantine astride the bow-sprit of gun-boat No. 1, in the vicinity of Blennerhasset's Island, and be restrained from touching cold iron for the term of three Callender months.—Providence Gaz.

French papers state that the Persians have obtained some advantages over the Russians in Khorasen, and the English papers inform, that the Turks are defeated in every encounter in the interior with the Russians.
The King of Sweden has refused to ratify the truce proposed by the Swedish Gen. Essen, and the French Gen. Mortier.
It is represented that the weather in Poland has been such as to prevent the Russian and French armies, in that country, hitherto, from commencing active operations.
The English squadron which lately made the attack on Constantinople, will join the fleet off Cadiz. Admiral Duckworth, and Sir Sidney Smith, are ordered to proceed immediately for England.
News Expected —An arrival at Providence on Friday last, in 37 day from Amsterdam, has furnished accounts of two battles having been fought in Poland, between the French and Prussian armies, in which the latter are said to have been victorious.—We have not received any details by this arrival.
Gen. Wilkinson has arrived at Richmond, and been sworn as an evidence against Col. Burr.
The President of the U. S. has been summoned to attend as a witness, but the Court did not think it necessary for him to be present, he has furnished the papers relating to the trial. This is the most interesting and important trial that ever took place in this country; if Col. Burr should be convicted of the crimes he is charged with, it will show that the ranks and forces of democracy have been marshalled by a man possessing the principles and ambition of another Bonaparte. But if it should appear that Col. Burr is innocent of the charges brought against him, his persecutor and those who have countenanced him however higher their situation, are unworthy of holding an office in a free government, but would make proper tools to execute the oppressive acts of the tyrants of Algiers and Tunis.
From Hayti, June 4.—Port Au Prince.
"I calculate in a month, Pétion will entirely subdue the north, as almost every day brings an account of an additional success over the enemy."
The fort Larchaye containing two generals and 3000 men, was taken two days since, by the army under his command, and Conives surrendered to the soldiers, that went in a fleet of English and other vessels from hence. We are now anxiously waiting to hear of their equal success against St. Mares: After which there is nothing that will stop them until their arrival at the Cape, which no doubt they will soon conquer, as both one and all resolve to completely subdue the north or perish in the attempt.

American Independence.
THE YOUNG FEDERAL REPUBLICANS of Portland, who have subscribed for a Dinner, &c. on the 4th of July next, are requested to attend at Mr. Campbell's Inn, in Fore-street, This Evening.
Federal celebration of the 4th of July.
Provision will be made at Mr. James March's, at Prout's neck, for a number of the Federal Republicans , for celebrating the 4th of July,* those who wish to partake in the celebration at that place, are requested to call at the Maine Fire and Marine Insurance Office, and add their names to the subscription list which will be closed on Wednesday next.
Portland, June 26, 1807.
* If fair weather, if not, the next fair day after the Sabbath.
WE learn that the Federalists, the real friends of the country and its constitutions, are making preparations in various parts of this District, to observe the day on which these States assumed their rank and independence among the nations of the world, as recommended by the venerable but now proscribed sage of Quincy, "with songs, guns and mutual congratulations."
The Argus with its usual regard to truth, says, that the Federalists in this town, will not celebrate the 4th of July. What could have prompted this false declaration we know not, unless the democrats suppose that the Federalists are influenced by the same narrow and selfish views which their party has been.
These modern patriots who now make such a parade, at the time when the general government was administered by Federalists, constantly ridiculed, opposed and refused to join in rioting the day, but by a successful exercise of their political delusions and falsehoods they have obtained a majority; now, under the mask of celebrating the birth day of our independence, celebrate the triumph of their party; whilst the Federalists making the honor and prosperity of their country the two cardinal points in their political creed, will ever keep the approaching Jubilee, as sacred to freedom and independence; not regarding whether they are in the majority or minority.
ST. JOHN'S DAY.
ON Wednesday last the Portland Lodge celebrated the festival of St. John the Baptist. The members assembled at Washington Hall at 11 o'clock, where they were joined by a number of visiting brethren of this and the neighboring towns. From thence they walked in procession, preceded by an excellent band of music to the Rev. Mr. Kellogg's Meeting-house, where after the performance of appropriate music and an address to the throne of grace by the Rev. Brother TURNER, an ingenious and interesting Oration was pronounced by Brother EMERSON, of Kennebec, in presence of the craft and a large and respectable audience.
ble audience. The society then returned to their Hall and partook of an elegant entertainment, provided by Brother DANIEL COBB.
The writers in the Chronicle are urging that Mr. Selfridge should be tried over a gain, for the killing of Mr. Austin. Formerly it was considered an inalienable principle, in the criminal code that a man acquitted of a crime, should not be liable to be tried again for the same. When the present ruling party shall have reversed this principle, what a door will be open to persecution under the cover of law! a man may be tried and acquitted a hundred times upon the same charge, and yet never know when he is innocent in the eye of the law, blessed times would our revolutionists bring about!— Sal. Gaz.
The Governor has signed the Resolves annulling the Court-Martial proceedings on Capt. Loring.
FOR THE PORTLAND GAZETTE.
The Chronicles of those days!
NOW in the days of popular delusion; it came to pass on the third month, of the seventh year, of the reign of democracy, that JAMES was declared chief ruler, of the people in Massachusetts . Now when the tidings came from the south; there assembled together a great multitude of the Comitess, the Gitchelites, the Gossies, the Pageites, and a mixed congregation of that sort, at the house of JOTHAMS, near the great river Androscoggin , on the highway, as one goeth to Topsham . Among whom, was Lemuel the centurion, Jotham the scribe, and Jonathan the cup-bearer, Ebenezer the physician, Samuel the sword-player, and Robert the Silver-smith.
They said one to another come let us rejoice together, for glad tidings hath reached us from a far, 'whereof we are glad. We have gained a victory, (after so long a time,) over those our opposers, and shall be likely now to accomplish our designs and to pull down the fabric which has been so long erected by WASHINGTON and his copartners: We trust the time is fast approaching when we shall have "liberty and equality," and that every man may do as seemeth him good in his own eyes. This will form a grand epoch in the Chronicles of those days, as did that of the revolution of France.
Now as JAMES is declared ruler of the people: by shouting forth his praises, and showing that we will be his faithful servants; peradventure we shall find grace in his sight, and we shall be likely to share largely in the leaves of office; which we could not obtain in the days of the reign of CALEB, for we all know that he was an honest and upright man, and would not be biased by bribes or any kind of stratagem to lean one way or the other, and would not permit, (knowingly,) a man to hold an office under him who was not a man of integrity, of sound principles and good moral character. Therefore it was impossible for us to obtain what we have been long seeking for. And they all gave forth an exceeding great shout and clapt their hands and jumped up and rejoiced with very great joy, and the house was filled with noise and there was strange voices heard, such as was not lawful for man to utter.
They burnt powder and drank wine and became very merry one with another. And there came a wind from the way of the forest, and the house wherein they were sitting seemed to tremble and shake from the very foundations thereof. And they reeled to and fro and jostled one against another, and overthrew the bowls and the flagons of wine and up set the tables and were quite overcome, they fell down, they rolled and wallowed and defiled their garments, and many became as dead men.
Some one at that time happened to be more prudent than the rest, said men and brethren ye do not act wisely for ye know that many of us is given to strong drink, and ye gave people great occasion to speak evil of this our meeting together, it is best to keep up, at least some appearance of order; meantime they heard not a word, but as many of them as had the power of speech continued to vociferate the praises of JAMES until somnus paid them a visit.
