MEDICINES: HAMILTON'S WORM DESTROYING LOZENGES, Which have, within eighteen months past, given relief to upwards of FIFTY THOUSAND PERSONS, of all ages, in various dangerous complaints, arising from worms and from foulness or obstructions in the stomach and bowels. A peculiar excellence of this remedy is, its being suited to every age and constitution: contains nothing but what is perfectly innocent, and is so mild in its operation, that it cannot injure the most delicate pregnant lady, or the tenderest infant of a week old, should no worms exist in the body—but will without pain or griping cleanse the stomach and bowels of whatever is foul or offensive, and thereby prevent the production of worms and many fatal disorders.
Description of Worms, and the symptoms by which they are known. Worms which infest the human body, are chiefly of four kinds, viz. the Teres or large round worm, the Ascarides, or small maw worm, and lastly, the Tenia, or tape worm, so called from its resemblance to tape; this is often many yards long, and is full of joints—it is most hurtful, and most difficult to cure. Among the symptoms attending worms, are, disagreeable breath, especially in the morning—Bad and corrupted urine—Itching in the nose and about the seat—Convulsions and epileptic fits, and sometimes privation of speech—Starting and grinding or the teeth in sleep—Irregular appetite, sometimes loathing food, and sometimes voracious—Purging, with slimy and fecid stools—Vomiting—Large and hard belly—Pains and sickness at the stomach—Pains in the head and thighs, with lowness of spirits—Slow fever, with small and irregular pulse—A dry cough—Excessive thirst—Sometimes pale and unhealthy countenance, and sometimes the face bloated and flushed. Persons afflicted with any of the above symptoms, should have immediate recourse to HAMILTON'S WORM DESTROYING LOZENGES, which have been constantly attended with success in all complaints similar to those above described. Children generally take this medicine with eagerness, having a pleasing appearance, and an agreeable taste.
RECENT CURES, SELECTED FROM SEVERAL HUNDREDS. MICHAEL DUFFY, residing at No. 57, Wilkes street, Fell's Point, city of Baltimore, voluntarily maketh oath, that the following statement is just and true. In the beginning of May last, my three children, a boy of seven, and two girls, the one five, and the other three years of age, were taken very ill, nearly at the same time, of a common fever, as I then supposed, but was soon convinced the disorder was caused by worms; they were frequently troubled with convulsion fits, and violent startings in their sleep, and with almost continual vomiting and purging, particularly the youngest. I made immediate application to a physician of the first reputation, and his medicines were administered with a confidence of success which only increased our disappointment. The children grew daily worse, and I was absolutely without hopes of their recovery—The youngest one appeared almost devoid of animation, and scarcely an inhabitant of this world. In this distressing moment I was told that Hamilton's Worm Destroying Lozenges had performed many cures in cases equally desperate. I immediately purchased a box, and gave each of them a dose, which in a few hours produced the most desirable effects; the eldest vomited a great number of very large worms, and the second thousands of small ones, many of them not a quarter of an inch long; in the youngest they seemed to be consumed, and had the appearance of skins, of slimy matter. I repeated the dose agreeably to the paper of directions, and they all speedily recovered a good state of health, which they still enjoy, though five months have nearly elapsed since they were on the borders of the grave, and the death of the whole appeared to be inevitable.
Sworn before me, this 26th day of September, 1799. J. SMITH. INFALLIBLE AGUE AND FEVER DROPS, For the cure of Agues, remittent and intermittent Fevers. Thousands can testify of their being cured by these drops, after the bark and every other medi-
cine has proved ineffectual; and not one in a hundred has had occasion to take more than one, and numbers not half a bottle. These drops are particularly recommended to the inhabitants of low marshy countries, where the worst sort of agues generally prevail, which unless early attended to and speedily removed, injures the constitution exceedingly, and brings on dropsies, putrid fevers, and a variety of complaints, of the most dangerous and alarming nature. Many other medicines are daily offered to the public for the cure of this disorder, which, upon trial have been found either dangerous or useless. The bark is the usual remedy made use of, but being a very na-
THE SOVEREIGN OINTMENT FOR THE ITCH, Which is warranted an infallible remedy at one application, and may be used with the most perfect safety by pregnant women, or on infants a week old, not containing a particle of mercury, or any dangerous ingredient whatever, and is not accompanied with that tormenting smart, which attends the application of other remedies.
PREVENTION BETTER THAN CURE. For the prevention and cure of Bilious and Malignant Fevers, is recommended DR. HAHN'S ANTI-BILIOUS PILLS, Which have been attended with a degree of success highly gratifying to the investor's feelings, in several parts of the West Indies, and the southern of the United States, particularly in Baltimore, Petersburg, Richmond, Norfolk, Edenton, Wilmington, Charleston, and Savannah. The testimony of a number of persons in each of the above places can be adduced, who have reason to believe that a timely use of this salutary remedy, has under Providence, preserved their lives when in the most alarming circumstances. The operation of these pills is perfectly mild, so as to be used with safety by persons in every situation, and of every age.
They are excellently adapted to carry off superfluous bile, and prevent its morbid secretions—to restore and amend the appetite—to produce a free perspiration, and thereby prevent colds, which are often of fatal consequences—A dose never fails to remove a cold, if taken on its first appearance.—They are celebrated for removing habitual costiveness—sickness at the stomach, and severe head ache—and ought to be taken by all persons on a change of climate.
THE GENUINE ESSENCE AND EXTRACT OF MUSTARD, For the Cure of Rheumatism, Gout, Palsy, Sprains, White Swelling, &c. and has performed more cures in the above complaints, than all the other medicines ever before made public.
DR. HAMILTON'S ELIXIR, A sovereign remedy for Colds, Obsolete Coughs, Asthmas, and approaching Consumptions, and is far superior to any other medicine for the WHOOPING COUGH.
INDIAN VEGETABLE SPECIFIC, For the Cure of a Certain Disease.
HAMILTON'S GRAND RESTORATIVE, Is recommended as an invaluable medicine for the speedy relief and permanent cure of the various complaints which result from dissipated pleasures, juvenile indiscretions, residence in climates unfavorable to the constitution, the immoderate use of mercury; the diseases peculiar to females at a certain period of life; bad lyings in, &c.
THE DAMASK LIP-SALVE, An elegant and pleasant preparation for chopped and sore lips, and every blemish and inconvenience occasioned by Colds, Fevers, &c. speedy restoring a beautiful rosy color, and delicate softness to the lips.
THE RESTORATIVE POWDER FOR THE TEETH AND GUMS. This excellent preparation comforts and strengthens the gums, preserves the enamel from decay, and cleanses and whitens the teeth, absorbing all that acrimonious slime and foulness, which suffered to accumulate never fails to injure and finally ruin them.
DR. HAHN'S TRUE & GENUINE GERMAN CORN-PLAISTER, An infallible remedy for Corns, speedily removing them root and branch, without giving pain.
DR. HAHN'S GENUINE EYE WATER, A sovereign remedy for all diseases of the eyes, whether the effect of natural weakness or of accident, speedily removing inflammations, defluxions of rheume, dulness, itching, and films on the eyes, never failing to cure those maladies which frequently succeed the small-pox, measles, and fevers, and wonderfully strengthening a weak sight. Hundreds have experienced its excellent virtues, when nearly deprived of sight.
TOOTH-ACHE DROPS, The only remedy yet discovered which gives immediate and lasting relief in the most severe instances.

PEACE WITH THE EMPEROR.
MUNICH, September 21.
Early on the 19th inst. the French courier Mousache arrived here, and delivered to Gen. Moreau dispatches from the First Consul, Buonaparte. At ten in the morning the Chief of the Staff, Desforges, went, accompanied by an adjutant general, to the Austrian head quarters at Alt Ottingen. He carried with him the modified preliminaries of peace, and the ultimatum of Buonaparte to the propositions of the Emperor.
Yesterday these preliminaries were accepted by the Emperor, and the fear of war was suddenly changed into the prospect of peace.
Several couriers were immediately sent off with the joyful news. Had not the preliminaries been accepted by the Emperor, hostilities would have commenced to-day, at ten in the morning; but as they have not, it is certain that the armistice is prolonged.
AUGSBURG, September 22.
Yesterday we received the highly pleasing intelligence, that when hostilities were about to re-commence, the Emperor had signed the modified preliminaries of Buonaparte. That the negotiation for a definitive treaty may be exposed to no further obstacles, the French are to take possession, pro tempore, of Ingolstadt, Ulm and Philipsburg. We have now therefore, the best founded hopes that a definitive peace will at last take place on the continent.
Bavaria has been obliged to furnish 1000 and Suabia 300 horses, for the French artillery.
RATISBON, September 23.
This evening at seven o'clock, a French officer and a trumpeter arrived here with the pleasing intelligence, that the armistice has been prolonged. The joy this has occasioned in this city is general.
Several couriers have been sent off with the news to Nuremberg & other places.
Another letter, same date, by an extraordinary courier.
The emperor has ratified the preliminaries of peace, which were signed at Paris on the 28th of July by the French minister, Talleyrand, and count St. Julien. They were ratified at Alt Ottingen and Munich, in the Austrian and French head quarters, on the 20th inst.
Peace will again be restored, France obtains the Rhine for her boundary; and the emperor as a guarantee of his sincere desire for peace, gives the French possession of the fortresses of Ingolstadt, Philipsburg, and Ulm, till the definitive treaty shall be concluded. The French army will likewise, till then, keep its present position.
CARLSRUHE, September 21.
(By an extraordinary Courier.)
Early this morning an Austrian courier passed through this city, who was sent off the day before yesterday from the Austrian head quarters to proceed with all dispatch to Strasburg and Paris. By the way he met two French couriers, who were going to gen. Moreau, and from whom he learned that new propositions of peace had been transmitted from Buonaparte, which the emperor had accepted and ratified. A French courier from Munich to Paris passed through this city, who said he carried orders to transmit by the Telegraph from Strasburg, intelligence of the signing of the preliminaries of peace.

LONDON, October 10.
The abode of gen. Angereau on the banks of the Rhine, appears to be advantageous to the French Republic as it must be agreeable to himself. Quarters in one of the Palaces of the Elector of Mentz, he indulges himself in good cheer, amuses himself with hunting, levies contributions, and concludes a great number of Treaties of Peace with the Princes of Germany. Those of Hesse-Homburg, of Solme, & of Ysenburg are among the number. The defection of these Allies will not much diminish the military strength of the Empire, for it may be doubted whether all three of them could furnish a regiment. Whatever may be their circumstances, Angereau will at all events make them find money for the republic with more facility than they have found soldiers for the Emperor and the Empire.
GRAIN SCARCITY.
We learn last night, with great concern, that the price of all kinds of Grain rose yesterday at Mark-lane. The corn factors, we have heard, had come to an agreement not to take more than five guineas per quarter for their wheat. On Monday accordingly a great quantity was sold at that price—one man, however, evaded the agreement, and towards the close of the market sold for 6l. 2s. The circumstance, we understand, occasioned the riot which has taken place, but which we hope may only be of a temporary nature.
The American packet, with the mail of the 3d ult. the Duke Clarence, with the Leeward Island Mail of the 17th ult. the Prince of Wales, with the Lisbon mails of the 23d and 30th ult. and the Auckland, with the Jamaica and Leeward Island mails of this month, are all waiting at Falmouth for a fair wind, to sail to their respective destinations.
RIOTS IN LONDON.
We believe we may now assert with confidence, that the spirit of rioting is entirely quelled, and that tranquility is perfectly re-established. Some fears were entertained that disturbances would take place in the markets on Saturday night, but those fears were groundless.
Since Mr Howard, the Quaker, routed the mob in Old-street, they have not made head in the city. A few, about one hundred persons, assembled at nine o'clock, at the south end of Fleet market, and some shouting at hackney coachmen took place; but on the approach of the military and a body of constables, they ran up Fleet street to Mr. Cullum's at Clare market, and the mob assembled at Newport market. The whole city was then perfectly quiet, and remained so. For this it was indebted to the orders given by the Lord Mayor, to the vigilance of the Aldermen, and the activity of the volunteers, each corps of whom again paraded their respective wards as on Friday night, though not in such numbers, great strength being unnecessary. A number of constables were sworn in and every precaution taken by the Lord Mayor. If the mob had attempted to rove about the city, committing depredations, they would have met fixed bayonets at every turning, and peace-officers to take them into custody. The markets of Whitechapel, Southwark and St. George's-fields, for which fears were entertained, were perfectly quiet; but many butchers shut up their shops at an early hour, and less meat than usual was brought to market, for fear of its being plundered. At 9 o'clock three fourths of the butchers in Fleet market had closed their stalls for the night, though they usually keep open till twelve on Saturday.
Equal preparations were made in Westminster and Southwark to crush tumult as in the city of London. In the latter the borough cavalry were under arms, & the volunteer corps and some regulars were in readiness; but there was not the slightest occasion for them to act. In Westminster, a party of the horse guards were stationed outside of Temple Bar, and another party patroled the Strand. A body of Saint Clement's volunteers also patroled the Strand at an early hour, and the other principal streets had parties of military stationed in them. In the King's Mews a reserve of 350 of the Westminster volunteers were stationed, the Boombury, the St. James's and St. George's (numerous corps) were under arms; the Westminster cavalry were out and all the other volunteers. The guards were also under arms at an early hour, and other regulars were in readiness. Mr. Justice Bond, and all the Bow street officers were on duty; Mr. Conant and the Marlborough-street and Queen-square officers were also preparing to act.
The spirit of tumult, for some time pent up in the city, burst out on Saturday in a western direction, but with very diminished and we confidently hope, expiring force. It had just extended on the preceding night, from its eastern course, as far as the house of Mr. Cullum, the great cheese and butter dealer, at the corner of Clare street, Clare market, where it terminated for the time in the fracture of a few squares of glass. So early as eleven o'clock, in the morning of Saturday, a mob consisting of about 200 ragged women, a great many with children in their arms, assembled in front of the house, in expectation of seeing it a ruin; but the windows had been repaired at an early hour, & not a mark of popular violence remained. They continued, however to vent their disappointment in groans and imprecations, but without any acts of violence. About seven o'clock in the evening every Poll had found her partner, and a female corps was joined by a squalid set of men and boys, who filled
up Clare street, and the open space in the market opposite the house. There was not a single stick, bludgeon or any other weapon among them, nor did they betray any symptoms of violence beyond what the whole day afforded. Become formidable, however from their numbers, about 8 o'clock the St. Clement Danes association were called in, and dispersed them. The association had scarcely withdrawn, when the mob assembled again. There they stood stalking and gaping up at the house, but not even a hiss or a groan escaped them. In the mean time the association were faring in the vestry-room on ham and porter, liberally supplied by Mr. Cullum; but about ten o'clock the number of the mob rendered their services necessary again. The association marched up and the mob immediately dispersed nor did they attempt to assemble any more. Considering how liable a man's temper is to be ruffled when disturbed in the enjoyment of good cheer, the association is entitled to praise for the alacrity with which they obeyed the summons, and the good temper and humanity which they displayed. Shortly after they went away, the horse guards came & marched through the place, but the mob had then totally disappeared. The shop continued open as usual until 11 o'clock: all the rest in market were shut so early as ten.
About 8 o'clock at night another mob of the same description collected from the neighbourhood of St. Giles's, shewed itself in force in Monmouth street, & marching in to Crayton street West street. They had scarcely broken eight squares of glass, when the Westminster volunteers, who were in readiness in the King's Mews, and the Westminster cavalry, who were also under arms in St. Ann's church yard, being apprised of their approach, came rapidly up. The horse soon succeeded in dispersing them, and they fled in all directions, some running up Monmouth street, some to the Seven Dials, some down West street, Gerrard street and through all the adjoining passages and alleys. The cavalry scoured the place and its vicinity with great energy. Where even an individual did not instantly retire at their approach, he was struck at with the flat of the sword. Many were in consequence much hurt, though none, we believe cut or dangerously injured. Eleven prisoners are taken and lodged in the watch house.
The association then formed in divisions, charged the mob with fixed bayonets in some places; at Seven Dials two were pricked with the bayonet, but not badly wounded. The volunteers drew up in the principal passages, for the purpose of intercepting the flying hordes, and preventing any attempt to assemble again. In these active and judicious dispositions were they ably assisted by Mr. Ford and Mr. Bond, at the head of the Bow-street officers. Mr. Conant and the Marlborough-street police officers were also on the spot, and by their united exertions, every symptom of tumult had subsided and tranquility was restored so early as ten o'clock nor did any attempt to interrupt it afterwards take place. This sudden defeat of the mob, at their outlet in this quarter, before their number became considerable, was the consequence of an intimation received some days before by Mr. Gransford, of a meditated attack upon his house. He accordingly shut his shop at twilight, and apprised the volunteers of his apprehensions. Among other measures of precaution he also removed a very large store of cheese, which he had in the cellars of the chapel in Grays-inn-street, to the Kings Mews. Had the mob attempted to assemble in any place, it is probable they would have been dispersed with the same celerity, as the volunteer associations mustered remarkably strong. Forty constables remained in duty all day yesterday and last night about Mr. Gransford's house—Whenever a group of people, drawn by curiosity to the scene of action, began to assemble, a constable immediately came up and dispersed them. No instance occurred of obstinacy or opposition to this prudent precaution, but all was perfect moderation on the one side and good humour on the other. The windows were repaired at an early hour, and no external marks of violence remained. It may not be here improper to observe upon the consequences which these tumults have produced, and may yet produce if persevered in, even though they should never assume a more formidable appearance, or break out in greater violence, the lenity hitherto used will be soured into rigour and harshness. The militia, harrailed, night after night, and tired of seeing all their domestic comforts sacrificed to the wanton spirit of a tumultuous rabble, will be irritated to vengeance. Symptoms of this growing disposition appeared on Saturday night.
Some of the volunteers, when insulted, were very desirous to fire at the mob, in the neighbourhood of Grafton street, and were only restrained from doing so by the authority of the magistrates. The shutting of the shops at an early hour on Sunday night, must also have produced a serious inconvenience to many industrious poor, who are often obliged to wait until a late hour for the means of going to market. Not only the butchers in Newport market, alarmed and annoyed by the routed rabble flying through it, shouting and hooting at their pursuers, had closed their shops most of them before night, but a similar effect was felt over the whole neighbourhood.
Cranbourn alley, Leicester fields and all the shops in the adjoining streets, which are generally in a blaze of light till twelve o'clock, were all buried in gloom and solemn stillness, as if it had been Sunday night. Not even a single group assembled in the city last night or in any part of the metropolis, nor were the military out; some people are in Guildhall and other places, ready to act with ball cartridge, if required. A few constables with their emblems of office concealed, walked about the streets, merely to make reports; but every thing being as quiet as on any other night, the military were dismissed at nine o'clock, and the constables soon after went home, the whole of the disturbances having entirely subsided.
Eleven prisoners were apprehended for rioting in Grafton street; but there is nothing singular or worth recording in the charges against them.
CONVENTION
For the prolongation of the suspension of arms between the French army of the Rhine and the army of his Imperial Majesty in Germany.
The count Lehrbach, minister plenipotentiary of his imperial majesty, with his army in Germany, and the Baron de Lauer, general of the armies of his majesty on the one part, and the general of brigade of the French army of the Rhine Victor Fancan Lahorie, on the other part, respectively charged with full powers necessary to conclude and sign a convention relative to a prolongation of the suspension of arms, have agreed to the following articles.
Art. 1. His imperial majesty and king, in consequence of the demand of the first consul of the French republic, and with a view of giving proof of his desire to check the calamities of war, consents that the places of Philipsburg, Ulm, and the fortresses that depend upon it, with the place of Ingolstadt, which are comprehended within the line of demarcation, fixed by the convention of the 15th July last (the 26th Messidor,) shall be given up to the dispositions of the French army, as a pledge for his intentions.
2. The garrisons in the places shall freely depart with every thing belonging to them, and join the imperial army in Germany.
3. The evacuation of the above places both with respect to the troops and military stores of all kinds, is to take place within the space of ten days at farthest. For that purpose, there shall be furnished by the French army all the conveniences and facilities in their power to transport the articles of every kind, which shall be defrayed at the expence of his majesty the Emperor and King. With respect to the possession of the places, there shall be delivered to the disposition of the French army in the course of five days, one of the posts of the grand communications. The choice shall be determined by delegates who shall be immediately sent with the utmost dispatch, to ascertain the state of it.
4. The military stores, provisions, and the military waggons shall be equally evacuated, as shall the artillery, with the exception of that of the empire. The latter shall be ascertained and certified by deputies named to that effect.
5. The mode of the conveyance and evacuation of these places shall be determined with the shortest delay, by a particular convention, as well as the evacuation of the sick, who cannot be sent off with the garrison.

BY YESTERDAY'S MAIL.
Congress of the United States.
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.
Monday, November 17.
This being the day fixed by law for the meeting of Congress, forty-four members assembled in the capitol, viz.
Messrs. Foster, Freeman, Shepherd, Reed, Varnum, Sedgwick, Wadsworth, Silas, Lee, Williams, Bishop, John C. Smith, Davenport, John Smith, Cortlandt, Platt, Glen, Thompson, Baily, Leib, Thomas, Heister, Brown, Muhlenberg, Woods, Smilie, Dent, Baer, Craik, Christie, John C. Thomas, Nicholson, Powel, page, Nicholas, Dawson, New, Jackson, Holmes, Macon, Stanford, Alston, Sumpter, Huger, W. C. C. Claiborne.
The Speaker observed that it had heretofore been the invariable practice of the house, to admit new members to take their seats previously to being sworn, though the constitution directed directly the reverse. As there was a new member present, he suggested the propriety of administering the oath to him before he took his seat.
Mr. Macon thought such a step premature. He was of opinion that no inconvenience could possibly arise from delaying the administering the oath until a house was formed, and he thought great caution should attend an innovation opposed to all precedent.
Mr. Nicholas asked, whether it had heretofore been usual in the case of a new house, to swear the members before the choice of a speaker.
Mr. Speaker replied that it had not.
Mr. Nicholas said that though on first thoughts, he was favorable to administering the oath at the present time, yet this precedent inclined him to think such a step improper.
The Speaker waved the question. The members present not being sufficient to form a quorum, the speaker adjourned the body till to-morrow.
Tuesday, November 18. The following members appeared in addition to those enumerated in the proceedings of yesterday, viz.
Messrs. Wm. Cooper, Lucas Elmendorf, Jas. H. Imlay, Franklin Davenport, Robert Waln, Elijah Goodrich, Wm. Edmond, Roger Griswold, Samuel Smith, Henry Lee, Thos. Evans, John Trigg, R. D. Spaight, Jonathan Dickson, Benj. Talliaferro, which amounted in the whole to 59, and constituted a quorum.
John C. Smith, a new member from Connecticut, was sworn.
A committee of elections, consisting of seven members, was appointed, pursuant to the standing rules of the house, viz.
Messrs. Dent, L. Williams, Edmond, Muhlenberg, Evans, Dickson, Claiborne.
A committee of commerce and manufactures, consisting of seven members, was appointed, viz.
Messrs. S. Smith, Waln, F. Davenport, Huger, Parker, E. Goodrich, S. Lee.

SALEM, Nov. 7.
Extract of a letter from Mr. Gordoqui, to a merchant in this town, dated
BILBOA, Oct. 8.
"By letters from Paris, we learn that your Commissioners have gone away, after settling matters amicably with the French: and that the French Government only wait the ratification of the treaty by your government, in order to open their ports to the Americans."
BALTIMORE, November 18.
Extract of a letter from a merchant in Havanna, to his correspondent in this city dated 17th October.
"I have just heard that dispatches have been received by the government in this city, of the French and Spanish, with 14 ships of the line and 17 frigates, having taken Trinidad, and that their present object is Jamaica—and have requested a supply of provisions for 20,000 men; this may, probably produce, some alterations in our markets for the better."
CHARLESTON, November 5.
Extract of a letter from Savannah.
"The inhabitants on the river St. Mary appear to have been alarmed by some Indians belonging to Bowles, who have threatened "to borrow some arms and ammunition from Fort Pickering." (Cole-rein.) In consequence of this threat, major King sent capt. McGill's troop of horse in pursuit of the Indians; the troop came up with them on Trader's Hill broke up their camp, and drove them into East Florida. One negro was found in the camp, who could not cross the river with them, horses and kettles, guns, &c. were also found, which shews that they had fled with precipitation."
LANCASTER, November 22.
EARTHQUAKES.
In the course of the last two days we have been visited by several alarming Earthquakes. The rumours as to the number and violence of these convulsions have not yet been reduced to certainty by the public opinion. We believe the first appearance was on Wednesday morning, about five o'clock, which "Seemed like the murmurs of distant winds." A few minutes before six on the same morning we had the most violent shock. It continued for about fifty seconds, agitated every thing, and was in sound like the rumbling of many carriages over a stone pavement. Yesterday morning, shortly before two o'clock, there was a shock nearly as violent. In the interval, and since, four or five more trivial agitations have taken place. We reserve
particulars and observations 'till our next publication.
CARLISLE, November 19.
Extract of a letter from a gentleman in Bennington, Vermont, to his correspondent in New-York dated Nov. 3.
"The choice of electors of President and Vice President for this state, is just decided. The appointment consists of Elijah Dewey, Jonathan Hunt, Gen. Chamberlain, and Roswell Hopkins, all decidedly Federal."
PHILADELPHIA, November 20.
The editor after attending the proceedings at Lancaster from the opening of the session. left the Borough on Wednesday morning, in consequence of an impression made on his mind by the proceedings of the Conference, and the hostility of the thirteen members of the Senate to the peace, credit, and due weight of this state in the Union, and of their fixed and determined purpose to oppose the voice of the majority of their constituents.
An article prepared for this day, was about to go to press, when an express sent from Lancaster arrived, and the Editor by that medium, learns that the House of Representatives had undertaken to make another effort to save the state from disfranchisement.
In order that the public should be possessed of the ground upon which the rights of this state are placed, it will be proper to give a slight sketch of the business. Referring the detail and the debates not yet given, for to-morrow and the next day.
The conferencees of both houses had five several meetings, on the immediate business of their constituents.

SACRED TO THE MUSES.
A SONG FROM THE GERMAN.
Let Truth and spotless faith be thine, Till life's vain pageants close; And still at Virtue's sacred shrine, Be breath'd thy ardent vows,
Thy Pilgrim path with flow'rs shall bloom, And sun-shine gild the day; While undismay'd we eye the tomb, And smile at life's decay.
Content, serene thy steps shall bide; Fair maid of mein divine! And sweet shall taste thy chrysal tide, As cups of rosy wine.
The slave to guilt still quakes with fear, Tho' tyren charms invite; No joy his languid day shall cheer, No soft repose, the night.
In vain shall spring revive the plain, And glad the vocal grove; The breath, where baser passions reign, No vernal ruptures move.
He shudders at the whisp'ring breeze, Appall'd with guilt and fear; In vain the dream of life shall cease; Nor end his terrors there!
O then let Truth and Faith be thine, Till life's vain prospects fade; And still at Virtue's sacred shrine, Thy ardent vows be paid.
So shall the friends we leave below, Bedew with tears our tomb; And round the freshet sod shall grow, And choicest flowers shall bloom.

GIVE notice to gentlemen who have been customers to my horse BLAZE, and those who wish to breed from him, that I mean to move him from this state next season, unless they will come forward and enter their mares to the amount of 150, at 50 payable on note at Christmas in whiskey delivered in Lexington at market price, or Flour delivered in Frankfort at market price, or note for twelve dollars for the season, or seven the single leap, paid at Christmas 1801 — I find money very scarce and difficult to collect, is the reason I wish to move him, the indulgence I have given has caused me to suffer much for money. Benj. Wharton. August 28. 1800.
