Just received from Lee & Co's Patent and Family Medicine Store, Baltimore, and for sale by MACBEAN & POYZER, at the Store formerly occupied by Mr. Robert Barr, Lexington, the following Valuable
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 obstruction 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 Tania, 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 gums—Itching in the nose and about the seat—Convulsions and epileptic fits, and sometimes privation of speech—Starting and grinding of the teeth in sleep—Irregular appetite, sometimes loathing food, and sometimes voracious—Purging, with slimy and foetid 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 a 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 medicine 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 dropies, 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 nauseous medicine, and seldom taken in sufficient quantity, it very often fails; and children, and those who have weak stomachs, are frequently loth for want of a more easy and pleasant remedy.
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 inventor'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 aches—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 Swellings, &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, obstinate 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 tea, frequent intoxication, or any other destructive intemperance; the unskillful or excessive 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. speedily 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.
THE ANODYNE ELIXIR,
For the cure of every kind of Head-Ache, &c. &c.

SHREWSBURY, August 27.
Captain Duval, of the navy, arrived yesterday at the admiralty, with dispatches from Lord Whitworth at Copenhagen. There was a council of his majesty's ministers on the occasion, consisting of the duke of Portland, earls Chatham, Spencer, and Liverpool, lord Grenville, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, and Mr. Dundas. The deliberations lasted from eleven until four in the afternoon. Captain Duval left town last night with the result of the council, to Admiral Dickson, to be forwarded to Lord Whitworth.
An express has been received at the admiralty from Cork, which announces the sailing of ten men of war, and four armed ships, with troops on board, on Friday last, to join the rest of the armament engaged on an expedition, the object of which is still kept a secret.
By accounts from the Grand Fleet we find that one of the transports sailing badly did not arrive off Utnant till all the others were gone from the fleet—in consequence of which an order was given for the single transport to repair off Belleisle immediately; from this it is evident that although that may not be the place of attack, it is certain the place of rendezvous. The result of all the reports is, that Belleisle is the object of the expedition.

FINCASTLE, October 24.
A letter from Charleston mentions, that the revolt of the negroes was confined to two plantations only but a plan for a more general insurrection was apprehended to have been laid.
An insurrection of the negroes near to Edenton North-Carolina, broke out but was happily suppressed.
Lexington, November 10.
Monday last being the day appointed for the annual commencement of the sitting of the Legislature of Kentucky, a quorum of both branches assembled.
In the Senate—Alexander S. Bullett (Lieutenant Governor) appeared and took his seat as Speaker.—Christopher Greenup was chosen Clerk—Achillis Sneed Clerk to Committees—Anthony Crockett Sergeant at Arms—and David Johnson Door keeper.
In the House of Representatives—John Breckenridge was chosen Speaker—Thomas Todd, Clerk—Willis A. Lee and Rowland Thomas Clerks to committees—Richard Taylor Sergeant at arms—and Paeal Hickman Door Keeper.
Tuesday both branches assembled in the Representative chamber. A messenger was sent to the Governor informing him that the Legislator were ready to receive any communications he had to make—After some time the Governor appeared, and delivered the following
SPEECH: Gentlemen of the Senate, and of the House of Representatives,
I embrace this as the first favourable opportunity of expressing through you to my fellow citizens in general, the high sense which I entertain of that esteem and confidence, which has induced them again to call me to the high office which I have at present the honor to fill. This instance of their good opinion is the more flattering, as it evinces their approbation of my former administration, and has renewed in me the obligations of duty: and as far as zeal and integrity will supply the place of ability; so far they may rely on my unremitting attention to the duties of the office, and to whatever else may be in my power, to promote the interest and happiness of my constituents.
In recurring to the internal situation of our country,—free from intestine commotion as well as from foreign aggression,—firmly united in the principles of republican liberty,—enjoying domestic tranquility,—profiting by the progress and improvements in agriculture, and some useful manufactures,—and blessed with the pleasing prospect of plentiful crops,—we possess strong incitements to the warmest expressions of gratitude to the benign author of all good, as well as ample ground for mutual congratulations.
It is at the same time, however not to be concealed, that there are unfavourable circumstances in the situation of our affairs.
The very reduced state of our treasury, will excite your regret, and that not merely on its own account, but on account of the nature of the causes which have produced it: for though we can happily ac-
quit ourselves of having wasted our resources by extravagant and expensive establishments;—yet notwithstanding all our care and economy,—our actual income will be found inadequate to our necessary expenditures.
The principal source of this evil will probably be found in our local situation, but more especially in the nature and system of our trade. The amazing sums of money which have been annually drained from this country in consequence of commercial arrangements,—in which not merely the balance of trade, but the whole trade itself is against us, have left us almost destitute of specie:—nor can I discern any probable prospect of a change for the better, until our dependence on other countries is lessened,—and until we supply those wants which are indispensable, through channels which will admit of an exchange of commodities, mutually advantageous to the parties concerned.
Deriving as we do, for the most part, our origin from countries bordering on the ocean; our ideas naturally take a commercial direction. Notwithstanding our remote situation from the sea;—nature, bountiful in her gifts, has afforded us the means of intercourse with foreign nations,—through a channel, both natural and practicable, the Ohio and Mississippi rivers,—together with the numerous navigable streams which take their directions through various parts of our fruitful country. Policy and interest therefore invite us to turn our commercial views to this channel. Experience no doubt, by proving it adequate to the exportation of all the surplus of our industry as well as to the importation of such articles as our necessities may require,—will teach us to regard it as a medium of great national convenience, if not of wealth. Whether it be within the power of government to do any thing towards giving a new direction to our system of commerce and obtaining the productions of distant climes through their natural channel,—can only be ascertained by an accurate knowledge of the causes which have contributed to a preference in our present mercantile arrangements. As far as our continuance in the system we have fallen into, depends on the habits, the connections and the predilections of the mercantile part of the community;—something might probably be effected to counteract these causes, by such premiums on importations by the way of the Mississippi as would at least call their attention more effectually to that essential channel of our foreign intercourse.
Intimately connected with this subject is that of home manufactures. Our soil and climate are happily adapted to the productions of materials for carrying this branch of national industry to a very beneficial extent. Our domestic manufactures, even on the present scale, imperfect as it is, have a very honourable claim to public countenance:—and from the wisdom and prudence of our citizens, we have every reason to hope they will be greatly extended. But as our consumption for a considerable time to come, will greatly exceed any thing that will probably be done in this line; I will suggest whether it might not be expedient for the legislature to encourage manufacturing men of industry, probity and ability,—by affording such pecuniary aids as may be deemed consistent with the interests and resources of the commonwealth.
The state of the militia, is a subject to which I have frequently called your attention,—and many judicious regulations have been made, by which I shall probably be enabled, to lay before you, during the present session, its real situation. It is a melancholy fact that one half our militia are at present without arms, and that a great proportion of the arms actually possessed, are unfit for use. I need not inform you that in the present state of things, either invasion or insurrection, would meet with a very feeble resistance, for want of the means of rendering us formidable to both.
The present is happily a time of peace—a time above all others, the most proper to prepare against future danger.
The procuring of arms and providing military stores, I cannot but deem essential to our future safety.
The penitentiary house, I am happy to inform you has been completed. The monies appropriated to this building, I have reason to believe have proved nearly adequate to the objects for which they were intended. There may be some incidental demands, which will probably require a farther appropriation;—but on this subject you will be able to judge more accurately, when a report shall be made by the directors of the building.
Special laws of the last session, requiring the attention of the executive, have been, as far as time and other circumstances admitted, carried into effect.
You will agree with me, I doubt not,
fellow citizens of the general assembly, that some of the subjects on which I have now addressed you, are highly important and involve the most weighty interests of the commonwealth.
I submit them to your wisdom and discretion, and am satisfied that they will receive a candid and dispassionate deliberation.
JAMES GARRARD.
On Tuesday last the senate of this state proceeded to class its members by lot, agreeably to the constitution—the result was as follows—
To serve one year, the senators from the districts of Fayette: Mercer: Washington: Bourbon: Barren & Warren: Campbell, Pendleton & Boone.
To serve two years, the senators from the districts of Woodford: Madison: Lincoln: Harrison & Backen: Logan & Christian: Livingston, Henderson, Muhlenberg & Ohio.
To serve three years, the senators from the districts of Nelson: Fleming: Mason: Clarke: Jefferson: Franklin & Gallatin.
To serve four years, the senators from the districts of Greene: Montgomery: Scott: Bullitt & Hardin: Jessamine & Garrard: Cumberland, & Pulaski.
To-morrow is the day appointed by law, for the election of electors, to choose a President and Vice-President of the United States. The candidates in this district, for that important trust, are Gen. Scott, and Judge Wallace, both of Woodford county. The fair and upright characters of these two citizens—the many and important services they have performed for the welfare of their country—their firm and undeviating attachment to republican principles, render them equally worthy the public confidence.
A TREMENDOUS STORM
Has been experienced at Charleston (S. C.) and its vicinity. So destructive has it been, that several vessels were driven from their anchors, and a large number of small crafts were stove to pieces and sunk in the docks—nearly all the wharves from Gebbes in South Bay, to Gen. Gedden's suffered more or less by having their foundations sapped, and their upper works broken to
pieces and drifted away—several other wharves were very considerably injured—East Bay Street, which has cost immense sums of money, is nearly destroyed, and a great part of South Bay, is in equally as disastrous a situation—Trees were torn up by the roots—houses unroofed and blown down—and fences levelled with the earth. The house of Mr. Craizburgh was blown down, and the fragments carried nearly one hundred yards, by the wind—To add to the calamity, Mrs. Craizburgh was crushed to death in the ruins—The rest of the family also suffered materially by being caught under the ruins—Sullivan's island, which lies at no great distance from the city, and which is thickly inhabited, was entirely overflowed.
Our Atlantic papers represent storms at sea to have been more frequent and distressing, within a few months past, than has been known for some years before.
INUNDATION IN CHINA.
Recent accounts from Canton, state that an uncommon succession of rain had laid entire districts in China, under water. The great river Hoambo had been swollen to such excess, as totally to wash from its banks, many of the villages which adorned them, and inundate all the adjacent country. Such of the inhabitants as escaped this awful visitation, had, with the remains of their property, fled to the hills.
The beautiful and rich plains which lately exhibited all the rich variety of cultivation, were, at the date of these accounts, covered with boats, employed in collecting the wreck of the country floating on the waters.
The yellow fever in Baltimore, is rapidly on the decline—the number of deaths average about ten each day. The Newspapers which had been suspended on account of the mortality, have been resumed. Providence and Norfolk are entirely clear of the fever.
The Pennsylvania elections in toto, have (a few counties only, excepted) been decidedly republican. New-Jersey, on the other hand, is, from the best information, as decidedly federal.

BY YESTERDAY'S MAIL.
HAGUE, Aug. 19.
The day before yesterday news was received here from Flushing, that five English line of battle ships several frigates, and a number of transports, had appeared in sight of that port. On the preceding day they had appeared off the Heights of Caufand, south-west of Flushing.
Yesterday morning early, a strong cannonade was heard from the mouth of the Mease. In the evening, we learnt that the English had attempted a landing at the break of day on Zealand, near the Briel. They had actually landed a few troops on the most convenient part of the coast, but no consequence seems to have resulted from it. The English have also failed in their attempt to cut out the Batavian ships of the line. As soon as this landing was known, general Charier marched with some Batavian troops to the spot, and obliged the English to re-embark. They lost five men. Our loss consists in two men killed and three wounded. Every precaution is taken to place our coast in the most formidable state of defence, and gen Charier is left in the command of the mouth of the Mease.
August 20.
The prospects of the enemy are no lon-
ger doubtful. They wish to establish themselves in Zealand, in which they wish to take possession in the name of the Stadtholder.—He has there a great number of partisans. Masters of Zealand, they could unceasingly harass the other parts of the Batavian republic, as well as the low countries, and would oblige the French and Batavians to keep constantly in them a great number of troops.
BOURDEAUX, Aug. 20.
Affairs of Egypt.
Extract of a letter from Constantinople, July 28.
"A few days ago fresh intelligence reached us from Egypt.
"Gen Kleber has been murdered, and gen. Menou has succeeded him in his command. It is reported that a Janissary under the pretence of delivering a petition to Kleber, stabbed him. Gen Menou in a letter which he wrote to Sir Sidney Smith says, that the assassin had been purposely sent from Gaza to commit the murder.—but there are sufficient reasons to believe to the contrary; and Menou himself is accused of having hired the murderer, in Egyptian disguise, who was cut to pieces immediately after the assassination.
"Other reports say, that the murderer was probably actuated by private re-

venge, as the French had committed un- heard of cruelties, especially at Boulac, a suburb of Cairo, where they spared nei- ther women nor children.
“What occasions the suspicions against Gen. Menou are his jacobinical princi- ples, and his having been at the head of that French party in Egypt, which was always against the evacuation of that country.”
“Gen. Kleber who was as much beloved by the other party, as they hate his successor, is generally regretted here; and his death is the more unwelcome to the Porte as he was on the eve of adopting the capitulation of El Arisch, for the e- vacuation of Egypt. Menou immediate- ly broke off these negotiations, declaring that he first required the consent of his government.”
“The Porte will now take up arms a- gain, and the Grand Vizier and capt. Pa- cha are conjointly to decide the fate of E- gypt by the sword. The former is said to have compleated his army & will have a reinforcement of 45,000 fresh troops un- der the Pacha of Meden. The capt. Pacha has likewise strong corps of Albanese on board his fleet, & the attack will be made in various points. When the last letters left Gaza, the captain Pacha had failed thence with his fleet.”

FRANKFORT, August 15.
Letters from Vienna which may be considered as authentic, contain the fol- lowing details:
“The English ambassador lord Minto, moves heaven and earth to prevent the emperor from concluding a separate peace with France an event which is con- sidered here as certain and immediate. The ambassador has just made some new offers to our court, which would have been very advantageous three month ago, but which are not so now. They are as follows:
1. The English minister engages, if the Emperor will continue the war, to keep up in Italy an army of 35,000 chosen En- glish troops under the command of Gen. Abercrombie, who shall continue there till a general Peace.
2. To make an attack on the Islands of Zealand with a powerful force, to pro- claim the Stadholder, and after the con- quest of them to keep up a force to man- age Holland and Belgium, thus compel- ling the French Government to maintain a considerable force in these countries.
3. To pay to the house of Austria a new and very considerable subsidy, under the title of Loan, and upon very favorable terms. In a word besides this, England should have an army of 50,000 Austrians to be maintained and paid by her during a year. The same letters which furnish- ed us these details, state that a Russian general had arrived here as a courier, with despatches from his court which are said to be of the highest importance and it is now certain that the best understand- ing prevails between the two courts.
LONDON, September 1.
Yesterday we received Paris Journals to the 29th. Large reinforcements are marching to the armies, and great prepa- rations are making for war. One of the papers by its comments shews the public fear that hostilities will be renewed; and that this feeling prevails, we perceive by the state of the funds. The Tiers Conso- lide , have fallen to 31 1-2 the price at which they were left. The Paris Journals give no information respecting the negotiations.
In London, the public hopes appear to be more sanguine than in Paris. The funds on Saturday, rose considerably, and surprised those who saw no reason for such a change.
Many circumstances were reported to have occasioned the rise; all of them re- lating to a negotiation for peace. The frequent arrival and departure of vessels between Calais and Dover last week nat- urally produced conjectures that the two governments were communicating, and the state of the fund shewed that the in- ference drawn was of a favourable kind. We cannot state the nature of the dif- patches conveyed in those vessels; but it is certain that an intercourse has taken place, which has the opening of a nego- tiation for its object. We believe the rise of the funds on Saturday, was the effect of the determination of the Cabi- net Council on Friday. The question of treating with France in conjunction with Austria was, it is said fully discussed and favorably settled in the Cabinet Council on Tuesday; the result of that Council was sent to the King for approbation; his majesty's opinion was received, and another Cabinet Council held on Friday,
finally to determine the course to be pur- sued. That Council, we suppose, resolved to negotiate, and the knowledge of this fact raised the funds on Saturday. Whe- ther the offer to treat will be made thro' Otto, in answer to the overtures he gave in a week ago, or whether it will be sent to Paris through Vienna, is un- certain.—But a negotiation will proba- bly commence soon; and we expect Mr. Thomas Grenville will be appointed to carry it on.
Government have received accounts of increased exertions to prepare the Brest fleet for sea; that considerable bo- dies of troops had been ordered thither from the interior; and that Buonaparte was about to repair to Brest to accelerate and animate the meditated enterprize.
The court of Vienna, on ratifying the treaty with this country, on the 12th ult. issued a declaration to all the courts of Europe, announcing the determination of his Imperial Majesty not to treat with France except in conjunction with Eng- land and his other allies.
September 2.
The French Council of Prizes, on the 25th July last, pronounced sentence re- specting the Ship Statira, Capt. Seaward, taken under American colours, ordering the ship and every thing belonging to her to be restored, and condemning the car- go as a good prize.
Ally, the friend of Franklin, and the Counsellor of Turgot, died lately at Pa- ris at the age of eighty five.
September 4.
Advices from Germany, and France, in- dicate a renewal of war on the Continent and which is to be decided by the 11th inst. The Emperor's submission to the terms of France, can alone prevent it. We have also advices of the 20th from Paris, that your commission is renewed, and that the negotiation is again proceeding. We hope in consequence of fuller instructions from your executive.

It was on the 29th ult. that lord Whit- worth signed the convention with count Barthorff the Danish minister. The fol- lowing is a copy of a note written by his lordship to one of our ministers abroad on the subject, and is more explanatory than any thing that has been published on the subject.
“COPENHAGEN, August 30, 1800.
“I have the satisfaction to acquaint you, that I yesterday signed a convention with the Danish minister, on terms satis- factory to his majesty, and such as will I think strengthen the bonds of friendship and alliance between the two countries. Signed. “WHITWORTH.”
The following are the principal arti- cles of the convention:
“The Danish frigate and convoy car- ried into Deal, shall be repaired at the expense of Great Britain and then releas- ed.
“The discussion respecting the asserted right of the English to visit convoys shall be adjourned to a further negotiation at London.
“Until it is decided Danish ships shall only sail under convoy in the Mediterra- nean Sea, to protect them from the Al- gerine cruisers. The Danish ships shall be liable to be searched as heretofore.
“The convention shall be ratified by the two courts within three weeks.”

ALL PERSONS
ARE hereby cautioned against taking an assign- ment on a bond, given by me to William Clark, for the payment of money. I am not certain as to the exact amount of the bond; but I believe it is two hundred and sixty two pounds ten shillings, pay- able on the 6th day of November 1800, and dated the 6th day of November 1799. The above bond was given in consequence of a purchase of land from said Clark, and as I have reason to believe part of said land will be taken away by prior claims, I am determined not to pay the above bond until the title is secure, unless compelled by law.

SACRED TO THE MUSES.
THE DYING PAUPER.
HITHER grandeur, pleasure, power, Leave awhile your idle state— This is sorrow's piercing hour— View this wretched child of fate.
Helpless, friendless, see he lies, Pain and anguish hover round, Want has closed his dying eyes, While your copious stores abound.
Hear his famished orphans wailing, See the partner of his bed, [failing, His truss of straw—her strength now Feebly holds his sinking head.
Here in misery, while they languish, None regards the dying call, No eye beholds the secret anguish, Save that eye which sees us all.
Go ye sons of wealth and glory, Scenes like this will mirth destroy. Go, with all life's pomp before ye, Heedless quaff the cup of joy.
But this scene shall have a variance, Soon these visions disappear. Then a vapor, all your radiance, His a fixed and shining star.
