SEVENTH CONGRESS
OF THE UNITED STATES,
AT THE FIRST SESSION,
Begun and held at the City of Washington, in the Territory of Columbia, on Monday, the Seventh of December, one thousand eight hundred and one.
AN ACT
Additional to, and amendatory of, an act, entitled, "An act concerning the district of Columbia."
BE it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, That the circuit court of the county of Washington, in the territory of Columbia, shall have power to proceed in all common law and chancery causes which now are, or hereafter shall be instituted before it, in which either of the parties reside without the said territory, in the same way that non-residents are proceeded against in the general court or in the court of chancery in the state of Maryland.
Sec. 2. And be it further enacted, That the circuit court of the county of Alexandria, in the district of Columbia, shall have power to proceed in all common law and chancery causes which now are, or hereafter shall be instituted before it, in which either of the parties are non-residents of said district of Columbia, in the same way, and under the same regulations observed by the district court or by the high court of chancery in Virginia, in proceeding against non-residents.
Sec. 3. And be it further enacted, That the courts for the counties of Alexandria, and Washington, shall hereafter be held at the periods following, to wit: for the county of Alexandria, on the fourth Monday of June and November, and for the county of Washington, on the fourth Monday of July and December, in each year; and all process heretofore issued from the offices of the said courts and not yet returned, shall be returnable to the first day of the sessions of the said courts, respectively, and all causes now depending in the same shall stand adjourned and continued over to the next sessions of the said courts, as established by this act. And the said courts are hereby invested with the same power of holding adjourned sessions that are exercised by the courts of Maryland.
Sec. 4. And be it further enacted, That no capias ad satisfaciendum shall hereafter issue on any judgment rendered by a single magistrate, or in any case where the judgment, exclusive of costs, shall not exceed twenty dollars; but that in such cases, execution shall be only on the goods and chattels of the debtor, and shall issue by order of the justice who may have taken cognizance of the action from the clerk's office, and shall be returnable thereto. That all such executions be returnable on the first Monday in every month; and that the same, and also the warrant to bring the party before the justice, be directed to one of the constables, whose duty it shall be to obey the same: that each of the said constables shall give bond, with one sufficient surety, to be approved of by any one of the district judges, for the faithful execution of the duties of his office, in the sum of five hundred dollars. That the clerk's fees for issuing and filing the return of every such execution, shall be twenty-five cents; the constable's fees for return and service, shall be fifty cents; and that a commission of eight per cent. be allowed the constable for every sum thereon by him levied.
Sec. 5. And be it further enacted, That so much of the original act to which this is a further supplement, as confines the jurisdiction of the courts of this territory to cases between parties who are inhabitants of, or residents within the same, shall not be construed to extend to any case where, by the laws of Maryland and Virginia, respectively, attachments may issue to affect the property of absconding debtors, or others having property within the district, and whose persons are not answerable to the process of the court.
Sec. 6. And be it further enacted, That the taxes to be levied in the county of Alexandria, shall hereafter be assessed by the justices of the peace of the said county, and the poor of the town and country parts of the said county of Alexandria shall be provided for respectively, in like manner as the county and corporation courts were authorized to do by the laws of Virginia, as they stood in force within the said county, on the first Monday of December, in the year one thousand eight hundred.
Sec. 7. And be it further enacted, That no part of the laws of Virginia or Maryland, declared by an act of Congress, passed the twenty-seventh day of February, one thousand eight hundred and one, "concerning the district of Columbia," to be in force within the said district, shall ever be construed so as to prohibit the owners of slaves to hire them within, or remove them to the said district, in the same way as was practiced prior to the passage of the above recited act.
Sec. 8. And be it further enacted, That so much of two acts of Congress, the one passed on the twenty-seventh day of February, one thousand eight hundred and one, entitled, "An act concerning the district of Columbia;" the other passed the third day of March, one thousand eight hundred and one, supplementary to the aforesaid act, as provides for the compensation to be made to certain justices of the peace thereby created, and for compensation
on to jurors attending the courts within said district, except so much thereof as relates to their travelling expenses attending the same, shall be, and is hereby repealed: And jurors, in future, shall serve, in the said courts, and be summoned to attend the same in like manner as jurors serve and were summoned in the courts of Virginia, prior to the passage of the above recited act.
Sec. 9. And be it further enacted, That ordinary licences, retailers licences, and hawkers and pedlars licences, shall be granted by the circuit court of the said district, in the respective counties, as the same were heretofore granted by the courts of Maryland and Virginia, respectively. And the several judges of the said circuit court shall have like authority to grant such licences in vacation, as the justices of the courts of Maryland and Virginia heretofore possessed; and the money arising from such licences shall be applied to the use and benefit of the said counties, respectively, in such manner, and to such purposes, as the justices of the levy courts in the same shall appoint and direct.
Sec. 10. And be it further enacted, That the marshal of the district of Columbia be, and he hereby is authorised and directed, with the approbation of the President of the United States to cause a good and sufficient jail to be built within the city of Washington, and that a sum not exceeding eight thousand dollars be, and the same hereby is appropriated to that purpose, to be paid out of any unappropriated monies in the treasury.
Sec. 11. And be it further enacted, That the corporation of Georgetown, in the district of Columbia, shall have full power and authority to tax any particular part or district of the town, for paving the streets, lanes or alleys therein, or for sinking wells, or erecting pumps which may appear for the benefit of such particular part or district. Provided that the rate of tax so to be levied shall not exceed two dollars per foot front, and that the same shall be enforced and collected in the same manner that the taxes which the said corporation had heretofore been authorised to lay and collect.
Sec. 12. And be it further enacted, That articles inspected at one port in the said district shall not be subject to a second inspection at any other port in the said district.
Sec. 13. And be it further enacted, That the President of the United States be authorised to cause the militia of the respective counties of Washington and Alexandria to be formed into regiments and other corps, conformably, as nearly as may be, to the laws of Maryland and Virginia, as they stood in force in the said counties, respectively, on the first Monday in December in the year one thousand eight hundred; and that he appoint and commission, during pleasure, all such officers of the militia of the said district, as he may think proper; that he be authorised to call them into service, in like manner as the executive of Maryland and Virginia were authorised in the counties of Washington and Alexandria respectively, on the first Monday of December, one thousand eight hundred. And that such militia, when in actual service, be entitled to the same pay and emoluments as the militia of the United States, when called out by the President.

LONDON, May 4.
A vessel, which is arrived at Plymouth, has brought letters from Malta, dated July 28; they inform us, that the Mondovi brig had just arrived from Egypt, with intelligence of the Mameluke Chiefs having retired to Upper Egypt, and declared war against the Porte. Several bloody actions had taken place between them and the Grand Vizier with various success. Sir R. Bickerton was on the point of sailing from Malta to endeavor to put an end to these hostile operations.

Accounts from Cape Francois, are to the 19th ult. when every thing was tranquil. Toussaint had surrendered on the terms announced in Gen. Le Clerc's letter to him. The most interesting article from this quarter is "That six thousand troops had passed the Cape, in a body, destined to take possession of Louisiana."
A gentleman from New-Orleans mentions, that the Spaniards there were in daily expectation of the arrival of a force and governor from France to take possession of that rich and delightful country.

NORFOLK, June 10.
We are authorised to state, that an insurrection of a very serious nature has broken out amongst the Negroes in the counties of Portsmouth and Hartford, in North-Carolina. The particulars we are constrained to observe, must be withheld for the present, from motives of precaution. It may not however be improper to remark, that too much vigilance cannot be used in our own neighborhood.
We are informed that five negroes were executed at Halifax court-house, on the 15th ult. for sedition.
Lexington, July 2.
JUBILEE.
Wednesday last, 30th June, the internal duties on hills and domestic distilled spirits, on refined sugars, licences to retailers, sales at auction, carriages for the conveyance of persons, and stamped vellum, parchment and paper, ceased. The citizens of Kentucky felt indignation on the passage of the laws laying those duties—they experienced the baneful effects of their operation, (particularly the excise and stamp laws) and they rejoiced in their repeal.—In the evening the Lexington Light Infantry paraded and fired seventeen volleys of musketry—the bell rang a joyful peal—the bonfires blazed—shouts rent the air &c. In due time the citizens retired to their respective homes in perfect harmony.
AMERICAN INDEPENDENCE.
The Infantry and Rifle companies are to dine at Mr. Maxwell's spring, on Monday, the 5th July. Citizens disposed to celebrate the Anniversary of Independence, are invited to unite themselves with those companies, on that occasion.
Extract of a letter from a gentleman in Caroline, county Virginia, to his friend in Clarke county.
"Congress have exceeded even the examples of history in reformations. And if moderate government, low taxes, pecuniary integrity, diligence for public good, impartiality to foreign nations, lenity to domestic foes, safety to property, and freedom of speech and of the press, can give a title to public confidence and personal fame, Jefferson bids fair to be esteemed by his contemporaries and celebrated by posterity, as the chief of patriots."
The conduct of Mr. Burr, has made considerable noise in New-York—A pamphlet has been published, called "A Narrative of the suppression by Col. Burr, of the history of the Administration of John Adams, late President of the United States," &c. The following abridgement of the pamphlet, with the subsequent remarks, are from a New-Jersey paper, "The True American," of June 14.
Mr. John Wood contracted with Messrs. Barlats & Ward, booksellers of New-York, to write a history of the administration of John Adams, late President of the United States. He wrote the history, of which they printed 1250 copies. The edition was ready for delivery in December last. Previous to the book's being written Mr. Burr had an interview with Mr. Wood, and furnished him with materials for his own biography; which materials Mr. Wood accordingly used. After the book was printed, and the week before it was to be published, Mr. Burr requested to see a copy of it, that he might peruse the character given of himself previous to its publication. This request was complied with. He perused the work, and discovered, or pretended to discover, several errors in it, by one of which he was made five years older than he asserted he really was. At first he proposed to Mr. Ward to have the sheet which contained his own biography reprinted, the expence of which he promised to defray. More errors were however complained of in the work, and he enquired of Mr. Wood whether he thought the edition could not be altogether suppressed, provided the booksellers were furnished with a new history, the materials for which he would himself provide. At the request of Mr. Burr, and with instructions from him, Mr. Wood applied verbally to the booksellers, and soon after in writing, offering to indemnify them for the expences of publishing the work, and to furnish them a new history in ten days, if they would suppress the present edition. The booksellers offered in reply to suppress the work entirely for 2000 dollars. This sum was denied; and after a long negotiation the booksellers finally agreed to receive 1000 dollars in full for suppressing the printed history, and to relinquish their claims to a new copy. This money was accordingly paid them about the 12th of May, by Mr. Wm. P. Van Nels, as agent for Mr. Burr, who had left New-York to take his seat in the Senate; and the whole edition consisting of 1250 copies, was removed between four and five o'clock in the morning from Mr. Ward's bookstore to the house of Wm. P. Van Nels.—Mr. Wood was bound by writing not to publish, or cause to be published the whole or any part of the contents of the suppressed history; and an attempt was made to induce him to engage not to write another history of the administration of Mr. Adams, which however Mr. Wood declined.
Such are the outlines of the narrative given of this transaction by "A Citizen of New-York."
What were the motives of Mr. Burr, in obtaining the suppression of this work, we are at a loss to decide; and shall therefore leave the decision to our readers. But when this act is considered in conjunction with his conduct in the Senate, and on his late tour to the southward—when it is remembered that he was supported by the federalists for president in opposition to Mr. Jefferson the well known choice of the people—when it is known that he is the bosom friend of Dayton and other leading men of the federal party, who now come forward to vindicate his character from the suspicions of the republicans, and to justify
his conduct in suppressing this book—it certainly behooves the republicans to watch him with a wakeful eye, and to be cautious of committing to him too large a portion of their confidence; still preserving their minds open to a conviction of his innocence, should his conduct hereafter be satisfactorily explained.
AGRICULTURAL.
An easy method to preserve Wheat from the Weevil.
As you stack Wheat, on every two or three layers of sheaves, spread some Elder leaves and branches—This was communicated to me by a Farmer, who tried the experiment with success last year. The same informant adds, that he has read in history that the same remedy has been applied in Europe, when they had occasion to lay up seven years store, &c. As the remedy is easy, it is to be hoped that farmers will avail themselves of the advantage. Exporters of flour from this state have nothing to much to fear—Inspectors ought to be guarded against this evil—no such flour ought to be suffered to leave the state—The credit our flour is to have abroad, depends upon the inspectors. N. B. Lime applied as above, will produce the same effect.
A FARMER.
At a meeting of the Trustees of Lexington, June 22, 1802.
WHEREAS the Slaves in the Southern states appear strongly bent on an insurrection—Therefore,
RESOLVED, That no Slaves from either of those or any other state, be permitted to be sold in this place, contrary to the 26th section of an act of Assembly, passed on the 8th of February 1798, without being subject to the penalty imposed by said law; and that the said section be published for two weeks.

EXTRACT FROM
An act to reduce into one the several acts respecting Slaves, Free Negroes, Mulattoes and Indians.
Approved February 8, 1798.
Sec. 26. And be it further enacted, That no Slave or Slaves, shall be imported into this state as merchandise; and any person offending herein, shall forfeit and pay the sum of three hundred dollars for each Slave so imported, to be recovered by action of debt or information, in any court having cognizance of the same, one half to the prosecutor, the other half to the use of the commonwealth.
This act shall not extend to prevent any citizen of this state bringing slaves for his own use, provided they have not been brought into the United States from any foreign country, since the first day of January, one thousand seven hundred and eighty-nine; nor shall it be construed to prevent persons emigrating to this state bringing their slaves with them, but either a citizen of this state or persons emigrating to this state, may bring or cause to be brought to this state, any slave or slaves, not prohibited by this act.

PUBLIC NOTICE.
The sale of Lots in the town of JEFFERSONVILLE, SITUATED on the Ohio river, just above the upper end of the rapids, on the North-Western side, will take place on the premises, on Saturday the 17th of July next. A credit of twelve months will be given for the payment of the purchase money. Bond with approved security will be required and deeds will be executed as soon as the consideration shall be discharged.
The land laid off is beautifully situa- ted for a town, and the plan thereof was made out by President Jefferson and a- dopted by the Governor of the Indiana Territory and is among the most conveni- ent and elegant in the United States. About the centre of the town on the riv- er is an excellent harbour, and from it all the way to the lower end of the rapids runs the main and navigable current of the river. At Jeffersonville, the perma- nent seat of Justice for Clarke county is established; and the county by reason of the fertility of the soil and security of the land titles is populating very rapidly by useful and industrious citizens.
The rapids do on both sides afford the most eligible seats for water works; and as soon as merchant mills are erected (which is expected to take place before long) and trade get into its regular and permanent channel, the people contiguous to Jeffersonville and Louisville, which are in full view of each other, will enjoy greater advantages than any part of the western country.

BY YESTERDAY'S MAIL.
PHILADELPHIA, June 15. Extract of letters from Cape Francois, dated May 28, 1802.
"A few days after Toussaint had surren- dered, he asked leave to retire to his plantations, which was granted. We have just heard that he has decamped, with a strong body of troops, in opposition to the French. Probably he was induced to this, from having discover- ed the weaknesses of the French while at the Cape.—Leclerc's troops have been reduced from 30 to 18 or 20,000; there are 2000 in the Hospital; and 12 or 15 die every day.
"On the 25th, a commander under Toussaint faint surprised a French post, and, it is said, killed every man. It is feared that Toussaint will be able to re-establish his authority. Un- less some reinforcements arrive soon we may be in a disagreeable situation.
We have just received information that a French fleet which lately arrived at Guada- loupe has met with a warm reception; 800 of the French were killed: and the town en- tirely consumed by fire."
By the Snow George, Bell, from Cape Fran- cois, in ten days, we are informed that Toussaint had revolted, in consequence of which three divisions of Leclerc's troops had been engaged with the blacks and very roughly handled—no quarter was given.
May 29.
"Toussaint has again taken up arms, but I imagine will not be able to do much as he is only joined by Dessalines, and a considerable force is every day expected here from France. We have received information that Guada- loupe is in a state of revolt, & the consequences may be expected to be worse than here, if possible."
Letters from Cape Francois state the death of three military officers of distinction of the French army, one of whom, an officer emi- nently distinguished in Germany and Italy; the name is either Hardy or Flary, and his death is said to have been by his own hand, in consequence of some misunderstanding on the plans of the government. The other of- ficers are said to have fallen victims to the Yellow Fever.
June 18
Under the Paris head of May 3d, we find it mentioned, that Gantheume's Squadron, which had arrived in France from St. Dom- ingo, was immediately to return with ten thou- sand troops, and most ample supplies of pro- visions.
