CALEB STRONG, ESQUIRE, Governor of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
A PROCLAMATION,
FOR A DAY OF
PUBLIC THANKSGIVING AND PRAISE.
TO impress our minds with ven- eration for the Supreme Being and awaken them to pious and devotional gratitude for the public blessings we enjoy; it becomes us, at the close of the year, agreeably to the prac- tice of our fathers, to set apart a day for religious and social worship — that we may join to offer up our fa- crifice of Thanksgiving, to the Father of Mercies, in whom we live, and move and have our being; and as- cribe the praise of all our peace and prosperity to his care and favor; and beseech him that he would continue to us his gracious protection, and enable us to yield him that faithful and constant obedience, which his perfections and our increasing obli- gations to him concur to demand.
THEREFORE, with the advice and consent of the Council, I appoint THURSDAY, the twenty-seventh day of November next to be observed in this State as a day of Public Thanksgiving and Praise. And the Ministers and People of every de- nomination of Christians, are request- ed to assemble in their respective places of public worship; that, with a solemnity suited to this religious and joyful festival, we may unitedly pour out the devout emotions of our hearts, in gratitude to our Common Benefactor, for all the Bounties of Providence which he has conferred upon us—For the inestimable bles- sings of civil and religious liberty. For the maintenance of public peace and order and the security of individ- ual rights. For his blessing on the labors of the husbandman—that the fields have been loaded with plenty and the year crowned with its fruits. For the success which he has vouch- safed to our Trade, Manufactures, and Fisheries; and that notwithstanding the obstructions to which Com- merce is exposed, our country flour- ishes in wealth and industry. For his goodness in continuing to us so great a measure of health, and pre- serving us from contagious and deso- lating sickness. And above all, for the Gospel of his Son, which has clearly manifested the purposes of his mercy; and which, while it points out to mankind the way to happi- ness, inspires them with the most be- nevolent sentiments, and recom- mends the most amiable qualities.
And while we praise him for past benefits, let us supplicate the contin- uance of his favor, and commit all our concerns to the care of his wise and gracious Providence; and en- treat him that he would forgive our multiplied offences, and incline our hearts to walk in his ways, and to keep all his commandments, and his statutes which he has commanded us. That by his grace he would subdue the pride of our hearts, and banish every impure and malignant affection from them; and that we may serve him with fidelity and cheerfulness in the abundance of the good things he has given us, so that when we can no longer be fed with the gifts of his providential bounty, we may be feasted with the fruit of the Tree of Life.
That our national and state govern- ments may be under the guidance and direction of his spirit, and be led into such measures as shall conduce to public tranquility and happiness. That the means employed for the moral and religious instruction of the people, and for the education of youth, may be succeeded. That he would preserve us from animosity and dissention in our political con- cerns, and from a censorious and in- tolerant spirit, under the pretence of zeal for that religion which consists in love to God and charity to man.
That he would grant peace and safety to the nations of Europe, and protect the helpless and weak from the insolence and cruelty of unre- strained power. That the gospel may speedily have that universal tri- umph which we are encouraged by the oracles of truth to expect. And that all nations may come and wor- ship before him who only is holy.
And the people of this State are requested to abstain from such labor and recreation, as are inconsistent with the religious services of said day.
Given at the Council Chamber, in Boston, this twenty-second day of October, in the year of our Lord, one thousand eight hun- dred and six, and in the thirty-first year of the Independence of the United States of America.
CALEB STRONG. By His Excellency's command, with the advice and consent of the Council. JONA. L. AUSTIN, Secretary.
God save the Commonwealth of Massachusetts!

WASHINGTON, OCT. 24.
It is with the sincerest pleasure that we announce to our fellow citizens the arrival of Captain LEWIS, with his exploring party, at St. Louis.
The President of the United States has received a letter from him, dated at St. Louis, Sept. 23, at which place himself, Capt. Clark, and their party arrived that day. They had passed the preceding winter at a place which he calls Fort Clatsop, near the mouth of Columbia river. They set out thence on the 27th March last, and arrived at the foot of the Rocky mountains, May 16, where they were detained until June 24, by the snows which rendered the passage over those mountains impracticable until then. He found it 2575 miles from the mouth of the Missouri to the great falls of that river, thence by land passing the Rocky mountains to a navigable part of the Kootkooke 340 miles, of which 200 was a very good road and 140 miles over tremendous mountains which for 60 miles are covered with eternal snows; then 73 miles down the Kootkooke, into a Southeastwardly branch of the Co- lumbia, 164 miles down that to the main river of the Columbia; and then 413 miles to the pacific, in all 3553 miles from the mouth of the Missouri, to the mouth of the Co- lumbia. In this last river the tide flows 183 miles to within 7 miles of its great rapids, and so far would ad- mit large ships; and from thence up- wards may be navigated by bateaux and periaugurs. He speaks of this whole line furnishing the most valu- able furs in the world, and a short and direct course for them to the eastern coast of China; but that the greatest part of these would be from the head of the Missouri.
He says it is fortunate he did not send back from the head of the Mis- souri any part of his force, consisting of 31 men, as more than once they owed their lives and the fate of the expedition to their numbers. One man of his party had died before he reached Fort Mandan in 1804, every other one is returned in good health.
Capt. Lewis expected to remain at St. Louis some days to settle with and discharge his men, and would then set out for Washington, by the way of Vincennes, Louis-ville, Abing- ton, Fincastle, Staunton and Chas- lottesville. He is accompanied by the great Mandan chief, who is on a visit to Washington. Capt. Lewis speaks of his colleague, capt. Clark, in the most affectionate terms, and declares his equal title to whatever merit may be ascribed to the success of his enterprise.—Nat. Intel.
RALEIGH, (N. C.) OCT. 26.
Hillsborough Court, Oct. Term, 1806. James Mercer of Person county, indicted for murdering John Gaitley, and convicted—sentenced to be hang- ed. The witnesses state, that the deceased, (who had married the daughter of the prisoner, some 20 years ago, and lived for the best part
of that time with him,) some time in June, 1805, on his return home from mill with a bag of meal, Mer- cer who had missed some money he had hid, demanded of Gaitley to give him his money or he would shoot him—the latter answered that he had none of his money, and turn- ing round to take the bag off the horse, received in his thigh the con- tents of Mercer's gun; the shot hav- ing broke his thigh bone, he fell with the bag on him, where he lay for some minutes, the other refusing to suffer any one to go to his assistance, until Gaitley fainted; and then Mercer ran into the house and got some camphor, which he applied to Gaitley's nose. He was then carried into the house, where he languished until sometime in September before he died. Dr. Webb, who was his physician, stated in evidence, that he set the bone several times, which as often got out of place by the deceas- ed being moved. The Doctor find- ing the bones would not knit, advi- sed his patient, as the only possible means of saving his life, to suffer his leg to be cut off, but Gaitley refused until it was too late.—It was the Doc- tor's opinion, that if the deceased could have been situated where the Doctor could have dressed his wounds daily, his life might have been saved.
The witnesses represent Gaitley as a remarkably honest, inoffensive, hard working man, beloved by every one—that Mercer was reputed as an honest man, and had never been ac- cused before this unfortunate transac- tion of any crime; he was, however, represented as very passion ate, and had been frequently heard to threaten his son in law, believing that the latter had poisoned his horses.
The jury was out but ten minutes before they returned with a verdict of guilty. On Saturday sentence of death was passed.
However justly we deem the con- viction of this old man, yet he is certainly a subject of compassion. It is a rare instance in any country, to see a man at the age of 84, tottering un- der his infirmities, and as it were, the grave gaping to receive him, arraigned at the bar, for murdering the hus- band of his own child. It was evi- dent from the testimony, that this old man's fears of being robbed, of his horses being poisoned, and of himself receiving some bodily injury, were the effects of infirmities or a weakness peculiar to men in their old age. We understand that a petition for his pardon is on foot.
NEW YORK, OCT. 24.
Extract of a letter from a Gentleman at Detroit, to his friend in this city, dated Sept. 24th.
"You will remember I wrote you of the fracas which occurred here in December last—viz. two British Officers, aided by some Officers and citizens of the United States, at- tempting to take away a Deserter from Detroit. Their trial came on this Court. Capt. Muir, one of the British officers, is fined 100. sterling and 17 days imprisonment.—Lieut. Luudi is fined 2000. sterling and 6 months imprisonment; and Lieut. Brevort, an American officer, 100. New-York currency and 75 days im- prisonment. There are two other indictments still depending against Luudi and Brevort for Assault and Battery committed at the same time, on other persons. These decisions create great warmth in the minds of the people.
Maturian Livingston, Esq. (late Recorder) in two suits against James Cheetham, Editor of the Citizen, has obtained judgment in the supreme Court at Albany, in the sum of 500 dollars each. Judge Kent presided and the jury said to be composed of a majority of Clintonians.
A Farmer lately bore testimony in a Court of Justice to his neighbour's character, "which," he said, "was never known to be blighted or mildew- ed."—Lew. pap.

LATE Foreign Intelligence, Received at Boston, by the brig Byfield, capt. Foster, who left Cronstadt Sept. 13, and Copenhagen the 30th.
COPENHAGEN, SEPT. 2. They write from Rendsburg, that troops are embarking in several Russian ports to be transported to Pomerania.
The Combined Dutch. —The French army in Holland is said to amount to 70,000 men. Several Camps are formed on the frontiers of Russia.
The Prussian troops are making towards the Grand Army forming in Saxony. It is said the French Minister at Berlin has demanded his Passports.
The Prussian troops in every direction, are in motion. Nothing is said in the German papers relative to Austria.
From German Papers. The late Prussian Minister at London, Mr. Jacobi, who had proceeded on his journey home, has arrived at Hamburg; and it is believed intends returning immediately to England.
The French troops on the Rhine and Maine are in motion; and a part of them actually passed over to the right bank of the latter river at Frankfort.
The French Emperor's Body Guards have quitted the Palace of St. Cloud, and been replaced by other troops.
HAMBURG, SEPT. 26. The Number of the Swedish forces in Lauenburg increases, and it is said are to be joined by a body of Prussian troops.
BASLE, AUG. 20. —The recruiting for the Swiss regiments for the French service, according to the late capitulation, has commenced. The recruiting parties have arrived and the money is expended.
FRENCH GASCONADE.
PARIS SEPT. 9.
Prince Jerome Bonaparte arrived, on Sunday at St. Cloud, after his long cruise. His Majesty immediately presented him with the Great Ribbon of the Legion of Honor. From the 13th of December to the 26th of August, this Prince continually kept the sea in the midst of hostile squadrons, supporting in every quarter the honor of the French flag, and doing irreparable mischief to the English commerce. In tracing the history of his voyage, as it is detailed in the English papers, we see him, on his first putting to sea, compel the convoy, destined for the East-Indies and America, to return to the Irish ports; from thence he went to St. Helena, in which remote cruise he destroyed several enemy's vessels. The squadron afterwards put into St. Salvador, the capital of the Brazils, to procure fresh provisions for the few sick they had on board. It afterwards coasted along South America, and destroyed several English privateers; and, on a sudden, appeared in the West Indies, throwing the trade and colonies of the enemy into consternation, and obliging admiral Cochrane to take shelter in Barbadoes. [Not true.]
After it quitted Martinique, it went to St. Domingo, where it repressed the scandalous traffic of some American adventurers, who trade with the rebel negroes. It appears that in pursuing them to the northward, the squadron encountered a gale of wind, which separated the Veteran from the other ships. The Prince then steered for the coast of France, and after having chased several other vessels, destroyed above half the Quebec convoy, and put to flight the frigates. [There was but one frigate with the convoy and that of inferior force] which accompanied it. The loss of this convoy creates the most painful sensation in England, because it was freighted with timber for the navy, which was much wanted. At last the Veteran entered a French port without the English government being able, notwithstanding they had covered the seas with superior squadrons under the orders of Duckworth, Louis, Cochrane, Strachan and Warren, to prevent the French divisions from fulfilling any one of its missions. [What were they.—as yet the public are ignorant of them.] Letters from L'Orient mention, that Prince Jerome, during this long cruise, wished to partake the fatigues
of it like any other officer; and that the only time when Admiral Duckworth, with a superior force, [another fallhood] was near enough to render an engagement, probable, that Prince entreated Ad. Williaumez to be allowed the honor of leading the squadron into action. The crews, animated by his example, manifested the greatest impatience to engage; and every thing led us to hope the result of it would have been glorious for the French navy, if the wind had not separated the two fleets, [by blowing contrary ways, we presume at the same time] and Ad. giving Williaumez an opportunity, of pursuing his destination. [What a pity that so glorious an opportunity should be lost, through the perversity of adverse winds, and the deliberate precaution of a prudent Admiral.]
PARIS, SEPT. 17.
The general opinion here is that war is unavoidable. They speak of the departure of Bonaparte as an event not very distant. Frequent Couriers arrive between this country and Holland; and it is believed he will be called upon to take a considerable part in the war which now threatens all Europe.
The latest account from Naples, contains a decree for the purpose of restoring internal tranquility, which shews more clearly than a volume of evidence, the inflamed and perturbed state of that unfortunate country. Several parts of Calabria have been laid waste by fire and sword; but as these means have not been found adequate to the end, the mild and merciful Joseph has called in the aid of secret tribunal, to supply the deficiency.—He has established a cruel and sanguinary Inquisition, and the loyalist, who has escaped the fire and the sword of military, is referred to endure the aggravated horrors of a mock trial, to be butchered in cold blood.
Domestic Intelligence.
NATCHEZ, Sept. 30.
Aspect of Spanish Affairs. —The most recent and accurate information from Natchitoches, states the Spanish force, embodied within our limits, at 1500, commanded by Governor Harara, who evinces a spirit of marked hostility to the government of the United States.
NEW-ORLEANS, OCT. 2.
The letters received by this day's mail from Natchez and Fort Adams, state that every preparation is making to meet and repel Spanish encroachments. All the remaining regular force that was left by Col. Kingbury at Fort Adams, have marched under the command of captain Sparks, for Natchitoches.—Major Ferdinand L. Clairbourne was hourly expected when the mail left Fort Adams with captain Farrar's troop of dragoons, and a handsome detachment of militia, on their march to Natchitoches, via Rapide—no doubt now exists but blood will be shed unless the Spaniards fall back.
Hurricane at New-Orleans. —On the 17th Sept. a severe hurricane was experienced at New-Orleans, which has done considerable damage.—There were but few vessels in port which did not receive some injury; and the small craft either driven out of light or sunk.—In the city, the fences, some brick walls, and trees, were blown down—some houses were unroofed, and one or two that were only part built, were blown level with the earth.—Fears are entertained that the Sugar plantations have been much damaged.—From the New Orleans Gazette of the 18th, we copy the following account of those vessels sunk or injured by the storm:
 Schr. Aligator, Casters, of New-Orleans, lost her bowsprit.  Schr. Nancy, belonging to B. S. Spitzer, sunk.  Schr. Rosalie, belonging to Antoine Sylva, sunk.  DRIVEN FROM THEIR MOORINGS.  Ship Mack, of Portland, belonging to Paul Lanulle, with the loss of her mizen-mast, aground on the Point.  Ship —, belonging to Mr. Blanque, driven on the Point, with the loss of foremast.  Schr. William, Wright, driven on shore on the Point with the loss of her mainmast and bowsprit.  And the following vessels are afloat.  The ship Brutus, Bunce, of Portland; ship Robert Murry, of this port, belonging to 
 Winter & Harman; brig John Adams, from London; brig Adventure; brig Fair American, Hildard.  Schr. Eliza, Tice, of Philadelphia, lost her mainmast.  Brig Sophia, of New-Orleans, at anchor in the stream, dismasted, the people employed at the pumps since day light, and having a signal of distress.  A Pilot-Boat, belonging to L. Muxo, is aground with damage.  The two Gun-Boats are aground.  Brig North Star, Lachiapello, do.  Ship Franklin, Lauve, do.  Brig Margaret, of New-Orleans, do.  Brig Helena, do. do.  Schr. Peregrina, of Campeachy, dismasted and do.  Schr. Ranger, of Baltimore, do.  Brig Roxaline, do. rudder broken, and considerably injured.  Brig Arkansas, aground.  Jupiter, do. with considerable damage.  Schr. Voltaire, of Charleston, do.  Brig Neptune, of St. Bartholomews, do.  Brig Trio, driven on the point.  Schr. Felicity also on the point—much injured. 
A Barge belonging to Messrs. Martenau and Landreau of Rapide, which arrived the same evening with a cargo of 40 bales cotton, 4 or 5000 deer skins, and some specie, has disappeared and has not since been heard of.
Robert Mitchell's barge, of Natchez, which was loading for that place, sunk, and but little of her cargo saved.
Mr. Morris' barge sunk, with a cargo for Natchitoches.
Two other boats loaded with produce from the upper country were sunk.
BOSTON, NOV. 5
Previous to capt Foster's departure from Cronstadt, he learnt, that no part of the treaty which had been signed at Paris, by M. D'Oubril, was agreeable to the views of the Emperor Alexander, or in conformity to his instructions; and that such was the indignation of the Russian Court against this minister, for having violated the faith which he owed to his sovereign, that an order of banishment had immediately followed his return to St. Petersburg, and M. D'Oubril was no longer to be found among the living, unless on his way to the deserts of Siberia;—That the greatest activity prevailed, in levying and embouying troops; that immense camps had been formed; that large bodies were marching towards the frontiers; and that nothing else was talked of but war against France—A measure which appeared to be very popular among all classes; that the Prince Constantine, brother to the Emperor, was spoken of as being highly in favor of the war; and had offered the utmost assistance which he could lend to the cause.
Capt. Foster further advises, that the day before he left Copenhagen, account were received at that place, per mail, that every hope of peace had finally vanished; and that hostilities had actually commenced between Prussia and France; that Lord Lauderdale had demanded his passports, and was on the point of quitting Paris, three several times, during the negotiation, without having affected the object of his Embassy, but that from circumstances which were not known to the public, though not affecting the serious business of the Negotiation, he still remained at Paris, at the date of the last accounts from that city. On the subject generally of a renewed continental War, Capt. Foster was desired to report, by his merchant at Copenhagen, that the safest calculations might be made on the certainty of its commencement, and a strong probability of its long continuance.
From the Freeman's Journal.
Thomas Pain, Ex-French Revolutionist, in the New-York Citizen of yesterday morning, has avowed himself the author of the piece in that paper of the 11th instant, where it is said that "two or three thousand French troops would soon force New-York, and carry off a cargo of conspirators."
Pain now denies that his intentions was to invite the French to this country. How true this may be, the public will determine. In the mean time, the following queries are submitted to T. Pain.
Do you know any thing of a certain memorial, transmitted to the Executive Directory of the then French Republic, by an American citizen then in France, inviting them to lead over a powerful army to revolutionize America. The memorial stating, among other inducements, that there was a French party and an English party in the United States, and that the army would be joined by the French party here immediately on its arrival?
Do you know, that this memorial made a deep impression on the minds of the Directory, and that it was re-
ferred to citizen Pichon, late French charge des affairs in the United States?
Do you know that it was with great difficulty that the Directory were induced to give up the idea of revolutionizing America—nor did they relinquish it till they were well assured that the citizens of all parties would unite and oppose an invading army whatever?
Do you know * * * * * but how should you be acquainted with any of these things; besides, three queries at a time may be as many as you can well answer?

Monday, November 10, 1806.
Late News.
An arrival at Boston from the North of Europe has afforded information, highly interesting and important.
There is every appearance that a powerful coalition is forming among the Northern Powers of Europe, who are determined again to try the "fortune of war" with Bonaparte; and accounts speak confidently that the confederation will consist of England, Russia, Prussia, Austria, Denmark and Sweden.
The celebrated Arch Duke Charles is making every exertion to place the forces of the House of Austria in the highest state of preparation for war.
The king of Prussia, whose mysterious conduct and time-serving policy during the late war between Bonaparte and the Emperor of Germany, and which was a matter of astonishment to all Europe, appears now to be sensible, too late, of the dangers which threaten his own Kingdom. The Prussian army is in a state to commence immediate operation.
Bonaparte has required the states that compose the New Confederation of the Rhine, to furnish their several quotas of troops for the war.
The only circumstance that now exists, favorable to peace, and which must be put in opposition to the hostile movements which have lately taken place among the principal powers on the Continent, which certainly indicate a disposition on their part, of attempting something more than mere show and parade, is, that Lord Lauderdale was still at Paris at the last dates, (Sept. 17,) in the character of negotiator for peace between England and France.—As to the question of war or peace, our readers will not be at a loss to determine to which side the scale preponderates.
Mr. ERSKINE, the new British minister to this Country, has arrived at Annapolis (Md.)
It is reported that the President has appointed C. A. Rodney, an associate Judge of the Supreme Court of the U. S.—vice Judge pattenon, deceased.
Capt. Little, arrived at New Haven from St. Thomas, informs, that one third part of the town had been destroyed by fire. Damage estimated at two millions of dollars.
A letter dated Marseilles, Sept. 17, mentions that West India produce was on the rise, owing to a prospect of a continuance of the war.
Representatives to the tenth Congress.
On Monday last the citizens of this State assembled in the several towns to make choice of Federal Representatives to the tenth Congress, which will commence the 4th of March next.
The result on closing the poll, in this town, was highly gratifying to the friends of the constitution and good government, the federal majority being much greater than at the Election for Governor;—for EZEKIEL WHITMAN, Esquire, federal, 316; for DANIEL ILSLEY, Esquire, democratic, 226.
CUMBERLAND DISTRICT.
We have heard from 25 towns, those that remain will not much vary the present majority; though we cannot vouch for the correctness of the following, they are sufficiently so, to ascertain the election of Mr. ILSLEY, by a small majority.

Portland, 316 227   North-yarmouth, 224 34   Gorham, 64 41   Windham, 33 6   Otisfield, 33 6   Hebron, 64 30   Bridgeton, 33 27   Harpswell, 31 4   Durham, 30 28   Falmouth, 74 149   Freeport, 84 101   Standish, 42 61   Minot, 46 64   Cape-Elizabeth, 25 29   Pejepscot, 12 15   Harrison, 2 16   Hartford, 12 58   Bucksfield, 17 49   Poland, 9 34   Brownswick, 30 50   Gray, 45 63   Scarborough, 21 63   Raymond, 00 48   Turner, 20 40   Paris, 23 103   Total, 1238 1323  
At the last Gubernatorial Election, in Raymond, the votes stood thus, for Mr. Strong 37, for Mr. Sullivan, 27. At the late meeting in Raymond for choice of Representative to Congress, we have been informed that the proceedings were extremely irregular. The Selectmen being all of the "sect," their love of suffrage was so great as to extend the privilege of voting to every one that was disposed to put a ticket in the box for their candidate—The federal republicans disgusted at such illegal and improper conduct, are said to have left the meeting without voting.
YORK DISTRICT.
The last Freeman's Friend of the 5th inst. contains returns from 21 towns in that District—the votes are as follows:—
   Mr. Leland, (federal.) 376   Mr. Cutts, (democratic.) 810   Mr. Bartlett, (oppug.) 271   The probability is that Mr. Cutts is re-elected.  
The Salem East-India Marine Society held their annual celebration on Thursday last. Among the toasts given on the occasion were the following:
The Salem East-India Marine Society—improvement "ahead," "Harmony" on the beam, and Party Spirit "astern," "hull down."
In our intercourse with our brethren, may we discharge our "duties" without a "draw-back."
May we never "bear away" when we see a friend in distress, nor "luff up" to needless animosities.
The good ship "American Commerce" Abundance her cargo—Enterprise and Industry her owners—Fair Dealing her Factor, and Success her port of destination.
May the hurricanes of passion never drive us out of the "regular trades" of social duty.
The Reverend Clergy—the faithful pilots who conduct us through the stormy sea of life to the haven of peace and happiness.
REPUBLICAN GRATITUDE.
Mr. "Scattering" a favorite candidate with the democrats, received only two votes at the late election in this district.
COMMUNICATED.
It is said that "Mr. Scatterig" has become excessively unpopular, at the late election for members of congress.
Notwithstanding all the "energies" of his friends in our General Court were exerted in his favor, and apparently, "in the full tide of successful experiment," yet the democratic ingratitude was, perhaps, never more apparent than in the instance of the late election.
Although this staunch advocate of democracy supported alive, at the last election for Governor, the hopes of disorganizers, and kept the Commonwealth in a ferment for fourteen days, at an expense not much exceeding 20,000 dollars; yet, we find him now, deserted by his friends, the democrats, in favor of a candidate, who, it is not expected will ever take his seat in congress; even should there be a sufficient number of the people now led enough to give him a major ite.
"SULVAN."
Installation.
Installed at North-Yarmouth, on the 22d ult. the Rev. AMASA SMITH, over the 2d church and congregation in that town.—The weather was favorable to the solemn business of the day, and the whole of the transactions conducted with decency and good order.
The introductory prayer by the Rev. EPHRAEL GILLET, of Hallowell.—Sermon by the Rev. JOHN SMITH of Salem, N. H. Charge by the Rev. PIERSON THURSON of Somersworth, N. H.—Installing prayer by the Rev. JONATHAN WARD of New-Market.—Fellowship of the churches by the Rev. WILLIAM MELLUMORE, of Falmouth, and the concluding prayer by the Rev. DANIEL WESTON, of Gray.
Married,
In Dublin, Luther Farrar, Esq. Attorney at law, of Norway, Me. to Miss Mercy A. Whiting, of New-Ipswich.
Died,
In Aux Cayes (Haiti) Duncan M'Intosh, Esq. assassinated lately by some of the blacks there.—He is spoken of as a gentleman of unbounded humanity and uncommon confidence. His death may be considered as one of the many fatal effects of the bloody lessons taught the negroes by their French instructors.
In Smithfield, (C.) Mr. Oraniel Mathewson, aged CVII.
In York, (Me.) Mr. Simon Fernald, for many years keeper of the goal.
In Falmouth, Mrs. Abigail Merrill, wife of Maj. James Merrill.
The death of the great and good General KNOX, whose decease was mentioned in our last, is an event deeply lamented by all those who regret the loss of such characters as are eminently distinguished for talents and patriotism.
Gen. Knox has been an old and faithful servant of the public.
From the commencement to the close of the American Revolution, he fought "his country's battles," when many of those who now boast of the "spirit of '75," were mewling and pewling in their nurses arms.—After his removal to the District of Maine, he was for the most part of the time a member of the Legislature of this State, 'til the present sheer patriotic democratic majorities drove from the Councils of the Commonwealth, a Knox and a Cobb, and supplied their places with such materials as Nathan Weston and William Widgery; under such an order of things, who will say that a private station is not the "post of honor?"
When the persecution and violence of party shall have subsided, and merit, not the name of party, shall be a recommendation to offices of honor and trust, then will tiger, whose present elevation, "like marine substances found at the tops of mountains, which serve only to remind us of the depths from which they were raised," find their appropriate situation, and honest men, and honest principles will come in fashion.
The following concise character of Gen. KNOX, is from the Repository of Tuesday last.
Another beloved and honoured name is enrolled on the register of death. By the force of talents and virtues, first appearing in times, which eminently required them, General Knox rose into public importance, obtained a high rank among the actors in the great affairs of his country, and a close intimacy with some of the wisest and best men in America. How brave and skillful he was in war, how dear to the armies of his country, and to their Commander in Chief, all are apprised.—Washington loved and trusted him as a generous and devoted friend. It was

the privilege to live many years to wear his well-earned laurels; to reap the reward of his toils and dangers in the peace & prosperity of the country, which he contributed to make free and great; to be associated with his revered General in the councils of the Federal Government, at a time when a share in the direction of its councils was the object of just ambition; and to receive expressions of gratitude and respect in the honours conferred upon him by his native state. To his merits as a military chief and public man, were joined those qualities which conciliate affection and engage esteem in private intercourse, which made him the delight of his family and the promoter of social happiness, in the circles in which he moved. The affairs of his fortune, which for some years had been perplexed and difficult, had taken a course offering him pleasant anticipations. But who shall claim exemption from the law of mortality! The warrior lies in the grave "hushed as the storm that spent." The statesman's wisdom is banished and the speaker's eloquence is dumb. The heart which swelled with generous affections, beats no more, and the face which always wore a smile of cheerfulness and benignity is stripped of its pleasant features. He who looked to be at the end of his days, is placed beyond the reach of anxiety or hope, of disappointment or success in the house appointed for all the living. We are called to remember that whatever is human is perishable, that however far in life our prospects, our designs may fail; and that others on whom our happiness or expectations rest, are frail as ourselves. The loss of such characters is always a subject of melancholy reflection on a public account. Of the heroes and patriots of our revolution, the number is small and their use great. Their influence in the present times, and in exigencies that may be near, must be important. The life of such persons is a general blessing, and every instance of their death makes a breach, through which evils of unknown extent may enter.

The Hope of Portland; for Philadelphia failed from Havana latter part Sept.
In the Gazette of the 27th ult. was inserted an article, stating the conduct of capt. Merryman, in passing the Sch. Betsey, capt. Smally of Cushing, which had been upset in a squall, and the people in her in the utmost danger of losing their lives; but by the humane and persevering exertions of capt. Elwell, of this port, were providentially extricated from their perilous situation. But we are happy to learn that it was not from any want of disposition on the part of capt. Merryman, that the wished for relief to these distressed persons was not afforded by him. Capt. Merryman says, and his statement is corroborated by the people who were on board his vessel, that immediately on discovering the misfortune which happened to the Betsey, he altered his course, being then about two miles distant, and bore down for the Betsey, with an intention of contributing every assistance to the sufferers in his power; but before he came up with her, was struck by the same squall, and his vessel being light was compelled to lower all sail, which caused him to fall to the leeward, and in passing captain Smally, who requested assistance he replied that he would bear up as soon as possible to their relief, he stood off with an intention to go about, but before he was at a sufficient distance to fetch the Betsey, he saw that capt. Elwell, who was to the windward when the Betsey upset, had run down for her, and was in a situation to take the people off;—presuming his assistance was not wanted he stood on his course.
A CARD.
H. SOUTHGATE, tenders his sincere thanks to those of the Citizens of Portland who assisted to extinguish the fire near his house, on Friday night last; particularly to J. E. EBENEZER NOYES, whose early and active exertions contributed greatly to the preservation of his own and neighbor's property.

Strayed
FROM Captain Estlin's, in Cape-Elizabeth, about the 15th of October, a HORSE, with a flax in his forehead (when he returned to a gland some years ago,) with her grandmother, Mrs. Cadwallader, the general's widow, Mr. Erskine's father, the lord chancellor, is known to entertain, and to express upon all occasions, the most partial sentiments towards this country, and to have vested a considerable portion of his property in the American funds. The sending out Mr. Erskine to the United States, in the character he now fills, is the strongest proof of the sincere disposition of the British government to cultivate a lasting friendship with the United States.
CARRIAGES.
His excellency the Commander in Chief has appointed Hon. John Phillips, of Andover, and William H. Sumner, Esq. of Boston, to be his Aid-de-camps, with the rank of Lt. Colonels.
A married gentleman has invented a new kind of carriage, where he and his wife sit back to back, as if they were in a coach. He calls it "Sociable."

FROM THE BALANCE.
THE BATTLE OF ORISKANY.
SACRED TO THE MEMORY OF GEN. HERKIMER, WHO FELL IN THE ACTION.
HARK! from yon thicket, dense with gloomy hemlocks, What means that shrill yell breaking on my senses Louder than thunder, or the bursting earthquake Threat'ning destruction. 'Tis the grim savage, thirsting after slaughter, Ris'n from his ambush, streak'd with paints terrific, Eager to glut his more than fiend-like fury With blood of Germans.
See the bold hero, who our faithful band leads, Fearless of danger, mid the fall of thou- sands, Issuing these orders to his brave com- panions: "Friends, die or conquer!"
Now, thick as hail-stones, fly, of Death the heralds, Balls from the muskets shot of Indian war- riors, Who, by the bushes, screen'd from obser- vation, Safely their aims take.
Blood flows, in torrents, from the dead and dying, Groans rise innum'rous, louder yells the sav- age, Drowning, with war-hoops, harsh as roar of lions, Death's dire bewailings.
HERKIMER, the brave, stood firm as cloud- Asiatic, Spurring our troops on to the fierce encoun- ter; Fate saw, and mark'd him, as she hover'd o'er them, Plotting their downfall.
Pierc'd by a bullet dire, the gallant German, Waving his bright sword, still maintain'd the contest, 'Till falling nature, spent with ceaseless ef- forts, Yielded the ghost up.
Loud shout our proud foes, as his fall they witness, Then in a circle round his valiant foll'wers, Grinning destruction with the smile of Fu- ries, Fiercer they rush on.
Now, far and wide, gleams high the Indian hatchet, Slaughter, insatiate, stalks amid the battle, While the scalp'd victims lie in gory tor- tures, Gasping for breath still.
Death, cruel spoiler! thou hast done thy utmost, HERKIMER, the brave, with all his gallant foll'wers, Slain by the Savage, on one fatal morning, Lie in the dust low.
Weep then, Columbia! weep the fallen he- roes, Raise in your hearts their monuments of glo- ry! Soft rest their ashes, 'till the God of Battles Call them to vict'ry. ALCANDER.

TRANSPLANTING.
The following circumstance is not less true than curious:—Fourteen years ago, CHRISTOPHER JACKSON (who is now in His MAJESTY'S Life-guards,) shot a stock- dove, in the neighbourhood of Dean, near Whitethaven. On preparing the bird for the table, an acorn was found in its crop.—As a matter of curiosity, the acorn was planted in the ground belonging to the family in which the young sportsman was then a ser- vant.—It is now a fine thriving oak-tree, upwards of seven feet high.—We read, in the various agricultural and horticultural reports, numerous instances of the advantages of ju- dicious transplanting; but we have met with no instance of so extraordinary a nature, as this of transplanting the germ of a tree from the stomach of a bird!—We again assert that the whole is a matter of fact.— Land. pap.
