TH: JEFFERSON,
President of the United States.
Of President JEFFERSON.
President JEFFERSON is, and uniformly has been, an advocate for religion, as well as civil freedom, and an illustrious promoter of equal toleration and protection of all denominations of worshippers. From his childhood, through the various scenes of public and private life, he has been pre-eminently distinguished for sobriety, humanity, integrity and purity of morals.—He is an exemplary attendant on public worship. In his official communications he reverentially acknowledges the author of all our blessings, both national and individual, and inculcates the practical duties of our holy religion, particularly that of gratitude to our divine benefactor. He is a liberal contributor to literary, charitable and pious institutions; and even maintains a clergyman of the parish, to which he belongs, almost entirely at his own expence; which is probably more than is done by any inhabitant of New-England for the support of public worship. If the reader doubts of any one of these facts, he may be satisfied by enquiring of any Member of Congress or any other person intimately acquainted with the President. Yet federal calumny has caricatured him, as a monster of irreligion and immorality; and federal credulity has been inclined to believe the slanderous tale. But the public indignation is rising against the malevolent faction, who, under the banners of political opposition, are basely attempting like their kindred savages, to tomahawk and scalp the private characters of their opponents. [Sun.]
Extract of a letter from Capt. Anderson, of the Amelia, of Baltimore, dated at Kinsale, (Ireland) Feb. 22.
"I arrived here last night from the river Kenmare, where I put into on the 23d of Jan. after a very severe passage of 32 days. There have been forty two vessels lost on the coast of England in the fourteen days. From the severity of the weather, I do not think it safe to proceed to my destined port, as I should be obliged to put into England. There is not the least prospect of getting to Holland until the weather gets better. There are other American vessels in the different ports here, bound into the north sea, also weather-bound."
MEDICINES,
For Sale by JACOB RICHARDSON, P. M.
DR. ATKINSON'S
Genuine Essence of Mustard.
RHEUMATISM in every stage, instantly submits to its penetrating powers, which has succeeded in curing the most desperate cases of Rheumatism, Gout, Lumbago, Sciatica, Numbness, Palsy, and Complaints of the Stomach, after various other medicines have proved ineffectual. It is prepared in pills, and also in a fluid state. The pills are particularly serviceable in flatulencies and indigestion, and by their salutary operation, promote perspiration, and gradually undermine the most obstinate rheumatism; and, at the same time, invigorate the debilitated constitution. The fluid essence is a remarkable active embrocation, necessarily used with the pills, and as generally excites a tingling sensation; it removes the cause of pain, by bringing on a circulation in the parts affected, by this means, frozen limbs, the severest sprains and bruises, old strains and relaxations, are generally cured by a few applications. The genuine is distinguished from counterfeits by the signature of THOMAS STOKES, & Co. being affixed to each bottle; without which mark of authenticity, none are genuine.
Chambaud's Antiphlogistic Lozenges. A radical cure for coughs, colds, asthma and consumption, difficulty of breathing, &c. &c.
MR. CHAMBAUD, the sole proprietor of this medicine, has the satisfaction to announce that they have been the means of relieving many persons in a most precarious state of health. In common colds this medicine produces so salutary a perspiration that they generally are eradicated in a few hours. Coughing, being prolonged by that convulsive symptom termed the racking in the throat, it shortens its duration by promoting sleep and strengthening the constitution. Pulmonary complaints affecting the breath and lungs, those afflicted with them experience an almost immediate relief. Asthma and confined consumptions have repeatedly been eradicated by them. Infants in the hooping-cough, and women during pregnancy, may take them without the least fear of danger, and with the greatest expectation of relief, nor can it be administered at an improper season.
The Genuine Scotch Itch Ointment.
THE only medicine that cures this disagreeable disease, by one application, so many thousands having experienced its efficacy; it is unnecessary to add any more arguments in its favor, but to caution the public, to observe, that the name THOMAS STOKES & Co. is affixed to each box, without this mark of authenticity, none are genuine.
ATKINSON'S
Genuine and Infallible Worm Destroying Lozenges.
AS a speedy, effectual, and sure remedy, stands unrivalled, and has performed innumerable cures, when medical aid, and other worm medicines could afford no relief. These Lozenges not only destroy worms where they exist, but entirely and effectually prevent their re-generation. For this purpose, the proprietor recommends their being used in the spring and fall. The families who have taken his advice, and used the Lozenges as their common physic among the children (for which they are excellently calculated) have now the happiness to find their children entirely delivered from those dreadful vermin.
DR. HUNTER'S
Genuine Antiphlogistic Pills.
AN agreeable and certain preventative of that predisposition to inflammatory and malignant fever, which prevails at particular seasons of the year. The rapid and increasing demand from every part of the United States, and the West-India Islands is the best evidence of their superior excellence.
DR. BARDWELL'S
Genuine Ague and Fever Drops, For the Cure of Agues, Intermitent and Remittent Fevers.
THE proprietor feels it his duty, to present to the public, a Medicine acknowledged & proved to be the first in the world; being a sovereign remedy for one of the most distressing diseases which afflict mankind. The properties and qualities of this Medicine, has been so fully approved and attested, as to leave no doubt whatever of its efficacy. Thousands have been cured by these drops, after the bark and every other remedy has proved ineffectual; and not one in a hundred has had occasion to take more than a single bottle.
DR. BARDWELL'S
Re-animating Solar Tincture, or Pabulum of Life.
For the Cure of Consumption and Asthma Disorders in the Stomach and Bowels, Convulsions, Cholic and Dysentery.
CAUTIOUS investigation, and attentive enquiry into the nature and laws of the animal economy, having long confirmed an opinion in the mind of the inventor, that all the maladies above mentioned, derive their origin from the same cause, indirect debility, or consequent weakness the analogy of their source by a natural inference suggested the idea of their removal by the same means: The result was the discovery of the Re-animating Solar Tincture, which after having been employed in thousands of instances, with the most unexampled and astonishing success, has obtained the warmest approbation of characters of the first respectability, both in and out of the profession, the proprietors can confidently recommend, as one of the most certain, efficacious, and pleasant remedies ever discovered by man or offered to the world.
DR. BARDWELL'S
Aromatic Lozenges of Steel.
IN this age of luxury and licentiousness, when the indiscretion of youth disappoint the expectations of maturity, and lay the foundation
of premature and sickly old age, it is not to be wondered, that a medicine of such restorative powers, as the Aromatic Lozenges of Steel, should obtain the sanction and recommendation of the most enlightened medical characters in the world: Many persons who were lately labouring under infirmities, which rendered life insupportable, are now enjoying health and vigour, the weak are languid, the relaxed, and enaciated of either sex. Those who have impaired their constitutions by a long residence in unhealthy climates; the nervous, & debilitated; will find in this medicine, the balm of comfort, a degree of reanimation, & a delightful transition from misery & infirmity, to health & happiness.
Matrimony. It is much to be regretted, but indisputably certain, that many persons of both sexes, are deterred from entering into the married state, by secret infirmities, which delicacy forbids them to disclose; and there are not a few, who being already married, are rendered miserable, for want of those pledges of mutual love; without which, happiness in this state, is at best very precarious. It has been ascertained, beyond a doubt, that those circumstances are occasioned by general, or partial relaxations, or weakness in either sex; and, it is equally certain, that the Genuine Aromatic Lozenges are the best, if not the only remedy ever discovered for this species of debility: when taken into the stomach, they immediately dissolve, and diffuse themselves, like a vapour through every pore, producing effects at once delightful, salutary, and permanent.
Dr. Bardwell's Genuine Eye-Water.
A Sovereign remedy for all diseases of Eyes; speedily removes inflammations, dimness, itching, and films; it never fails to cure those maladies which frequently succeed the measles, small-pox, and fevers; and is an unparalleled strengthener of a weak sight.
Specific Drops for Deafness.
FOR many years have these drops been used with amazing success, in Deafness & Hardness of Hearing. Those who are unacquainted with the great relief afforded by this valuable medicine, are earnestly recommended to a trial. Few are the cases in which it has not been of great service, and very often perfected a complete cure. Copious directions for the use of the Specific Drops for Deafness are sealed up with each.
DR. BARDWELL'S
Anodyne Essence, for all kinds of Head Aches.
THE renowned virtues of the Anodyne Essence, is now so generally known, that it is no presumption in the proprietor to say, that Head Aches, arising from whatever cause, or however violent, instantly submit to its penetrating powers. This invaluable Anodyne, has frequently succeeded after the best advice, and every other remedy has failed; by its salutary operation, it infallibly promotes circulation and perspiration, and thereby prevents the return of the most obstinate periodical head aches.

British House of Lords—March 10.
THE KING'S MESSAGE.
Royal Message.—Lord Hobart delivered the following Message from his Majesty:
"IN consequence of the formidable military preparations carrying on in the ports of France and Holland, pending the discussion of an important negotiation between his Majesty's government and that of France, the result of which cannot yet be known, his Majesty acquaints the House, that actuated by the concern he always feels for the security and welfare of his subjects, he has thought it necessary to exercise the powers vested in him by act of Parliament, for calling out, and embodying forthwith, the militia of these kingdoms, or such part thereof as his Majesty shall think proper for the defence and safety of his kingdoms, not doubting that his Parliament will approve the same."
Lord Hobart moved, that an humble address be presented to his Majesty to thank his Majesty for his gracious communication to this House, and to express its cheerful concurrence in, and high approbation of his Majesty's determination; which address his Lordship read in his place.
The Duke of Montrose, in a short animated speech, seconded the motion.
Lord Hobart's motion passed nem. dis.
HOUSE OF COMMONS—March 10.
MESSAGE FROM HIS MAJESTY.
The Chancellor of the Exchequer appeared at the bar of the House, and brought up a message from his Majesty, which the Speaker read from the chair.
The Secretary at War said, that he rose for the purpose of moving an address for the gracious message which had just been read.
The address was voted nem. con. and ordered to be presented by such members of the House as are of his Majesty's Privy Council.

Mr. Wickham gave notice, that he would to-morrow move for leave to bring in a bill to empower the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland to increase the militia of that part of the united kingdom.—Adjourned.
GENERAL ORDERS.
Horse-Guards, London, 12th March, 1803. It is the King's pleasure that notwithstanding any leave of absence granted by his Majesty or by the Commander in Chief, all officers belonging to regiments in Great Britain, or on foreign stations, do join their respective corps without delay, except such officers as are employed on the recruiting service, or upon any public duty.
By order of his Royal Highness the Commander in Chief, HARRY CALVERT, Adj. Gen. of the Forces.
MARCH 11.
Two proclamations were issued yesterday afternoon; the one for encouraging seamen and landsmen to enter themselves on board his Majesty's ships of war; and the other for recalling and prohibiting seamen from serving foreign Princes or States, and for granting rewards for discovering such seamen as shall conceal themselves.
Lord Gardner, Sir Sidney Smith, and Sir Edward Pellew, were among the naval officers of distinction, who attended at the Admiralty Office, on Wednesday and yesterday, to render their services in case of a rupture; and their example has been imitated by upwards of three hundred naval officers of different ranks, from that of Post Captains to warrant officers.
Instructions have been prepared, and will be sent off with all possible dispatch for our foreign possessions.
MARCH 12.
Yesterday we received Paris papers to the 8th inst. The French funds have suffered a depression, but not in proportion to the fall in ours.
PARLIAMENT.
In the course of the debate, last night, in the House of Commons, nothing was to be observed but the same shades of opinion which prevailed the former discussion on the same subject. The language of the Minister was uniform and confident. He strongly expressed his wish for peace, and his hopes, that the last extremities might still be avoided; but declared his resolution never to purchase peace by humiliation, or any injudicious concessions. Mr. Fox appeared to be less devoted than before to peace, upon almost any terms; and after taking a comprehensive view of the constitutional part of the subject, displays the naval and military powers of the country in the most favourable and encouraging light; but at the same time he deprecated war, which, if attended with the most glorious and uninterrupted success, he must still consider as one of the greatest calamities that could befall this country. In the course of the debate, no clue whatever was given to the nation of the negotiations now pending between this country and France. Mr. Dent moved an augmentation of seamen and marines to 25,000 instead of 10,000; but the House acquiesced in the more moderate proposal of the Minister.
Independently of the vast numbers of seamen, every where obtained by means of the impress, we are happy to find, that volunteers who have already entered, are beyond all former example numerous.
A system, which has long been digested, has been completely prepared, for arming the country from one end of it to the other. We do not suppose that his Majesty's Ministers will feel it necessary to carry it into execution immediately, having so large a disposable force at their command. But we understand that the nature of this system is such, that a very short period only will be necessary to make the whole country an armed nation.
Ministers without acting with unbecoming precipitation on so important an occasion, have come to a final and necessary resolution upon the subject. Their ultimatum , we are assured from a quarter of the first respectability was sent off for Paris on Wednesday evening, shortly after the unanimous vote of Parliament was obtained in favor of their spirited determination. In the course of the next week, therefore, the grand question of peace or war bids fair to be finally decided.
On Wednesday, one King's messenger, and two foreign messengers failed, though it blew a gale of wind. Another King's messenger failed on Thursday. Two packets arrived in the afternoon, bringing Mr. Elsworth. A French courier arrived with dispatches for General Andreossi. M. Favelet, one of the French Commercial Commissioners, failed from Dover yesterday with dispatches from the French Ambassador. Two couriers arrived at the Ambassador's house yesterday morning.
It is a very fortunate circumstance, that various causes have delayed the sailing of the French squadrons in the ports of Helvoetsluys and Dunkirk. The Louisiana expedition has been delayed, first, by the failure of a house at Paris, which had the contract for supplying it with necessaries, and secondly by the frost which set in with great severity in Holland.
The French seem to be adopting every measure for increasing their naval force. Large sails of timber have been ordered in the great forest of Soignes; the timber is to be sent to Brest, Havre, Dunkirk, and L'Orient.
The government has issued an arrest for registering anew all ship-carpenters, caulkers, sail-makers, rope-makers, &c. resident at the different ports, and not already entered on the register for sailors. When a requisition is made for their services, it is to be regulated by the laws of the 25th of October, 1796. Blacksmiths, bakers, and house-carpenters, are also to obey the requisition of the Administrators of the Marine, should their services be thought necessary.
Such of these artisans as refuse to proceed to their destination, shall be apprehended, and forwarded from brigade to brigade, till they reach the respective ports.
That Bonaparte may have been guilty of gross insult and outrages to our government is highly probable. It is said he insists on having Commercial Agents at all our great naval ports. If this be true, Ministers will have the thanks and support of the country, for resisting him, let the consequences be what they may. On this subject a strange coincidence of circumstances now presents itself.—Some weeks ago we mentioned, that one Favelet, an officer of engineers, and brother to Bonaparte's Secretary, had stationed himself as Commercial Commissioner at Dublin. By our Dover letter we find, this very man is at that place on his way to Paris. It is not generally known, but it is a fact, that government have discovered printed addresses from Arthur O'Connor, now circulating in Ireland, in which he explains and justifies his conduct, and confidently speaks of emancipating his country. General Doyen has just reviewed at Brest an army said to be destined for the East-Indies. The King's message declares France has large armaments in her ports avowedly for her colonies, but suspected of being designed to invade this country (or Ireland which is the same.) These facts need no comment.

LONDON, MARCH 14.
THERE have been no arrivals from France for these two days. But indeed it is not probable that any answer will be received from the French government to the dispatch that must have been sent off when the present armaments were resolved upon, till to-morrow or Wednesday. While the present uncertainty respecting peace or war continues, it is evident that the preparations already ordered must be pursued with unabated vigour. In the departments, both of the army and navy, the greatest excitements are used.
The Funds on Saturday did not discover any additional confidence in the hope of peace. The Three per Cents. left off at 63 3/4—Omnium at 14.
From Mr. Pitt having obtained leave of absence from the House of Commons, his friends have very faint hopes of seeing him soon in place.
Besides Lord Nelson to command one of the fleets of observation, and Lord Keith another fleet of observation in the North Sea, Lord Gardner, it is said is to take command of the Channel fleet. It is reported also, that the whole opposite line of the French coast will be blockaded by numerous squadrons of frigates and gun-boats, under the distinct commands of Sir Edward Pellew and Sir Sidney Smith. Sir James Saumarez is to be on the Downs Station, and Admiral Thornborough on the Nore and Sheerness.
Ten sail of the line and sixteen frigates will be ready in a few days for commission. Orders have been issued by the Board of Admiralty for the equipment of twenty of the largest and swiftest sailing gun vessels.
It is confidently reported that Earl St. Vincent is to retire from the office of First Lord of the Admiralty, and Lord Melville is to be appointed.
Letters are preparing at the War-Office, in some degree similar to those already issued from Lord Hobart's office, requiring the Lord-Lieutenants of Counties to make the necessary arrangements for the early assembling the militia. It is mentioned that a third part only of these corps is to be called out.
The half-pay officers in England and Ireland have been ordered to make a return of their particular places of residence within one month—otherwise their names to be erased from the list.
IMPRESSIONS.
Our Plymouth letters state, that the Admiralty messenger with the impress warrants, arrived there in thirty hours. Immediately after they were received, the colliers and other ships were boarded, and a great number of prime hands obtained. Londoners of all descriptions were also pressed. Four hundred men were picked up in one night. One pressing entered the Dock Theatre and cleared the whole gallery, except the women. Two frigates failed on Thursday night from Portsmouth, for Cork and Guernsey, to procure seamen. The Venerable, of 74 guns, and Hydra frigate were to go out of Portsmouth harbor to-day.
During the Press on the River, a great number of American seamen have been taken; in consequence, the Consul of the U. S. resident in London, has had a long interview with the Lords of the Admiralty, when all those Seamen, who could produce satisfactory testimonials of their being Citizens of America, were ordered to be discharged.
SWITZERLAND.—In the House of Lords on the 11th inst. Lord Minto rose to remind the House that, previous to the late recess, he had given notice of his intention on an early day after the House should meet again, to bring forward a motion for papers, which would oblige Ministers to give the House some information, as to what had passed between his Majesty and the French Government relative to Switzerland. He had waited hitherto in expectation that some new lights would be thrown on the subject; but what had passed within these few days, was of so truly important a nature, that it ought to absorb all other considerations. Their Lordships therefore would not wonder at his abandoning his intention of making any motion similar to that, to which he had alluded.
A private letter from Paris says, that the Government have ordered the principals of all the families in that city to make an immediate return of the persons belonging to each, who are at present absent, stating the cause of their absence, and their respective means of subsistence.
Letters from Deal state, that several persons have lately emigrated from France to that part of the coast, fearful of a new convulsion taking place in their own country.
The report of persons having been taken up in Yorkshire, charged with High Treason, and a connection with Despard, was not founded. On Thursday last were tried at York, William Lee (aged 42) and William Rousley, both of Sheffield, for having, between September 1801, and Christmas last past, feloniously administered an oath to Wm. Simnet, of Sheffield, collier, to engage in an association or conspiracy, formed for the purpose of disturbing the public peace. These two men were only indicted for unlawfully administering an oath, but a perusal of the evidence against them will shew they were guilty of High Treason. They alleged, took a secret oath, were to overthrow the Government by force of arms, the wives & families of those who fell in battle were to be provided for, and these ignorant, despicable miscreants, were to govern this country! In every particular the societies of Sheffield resembled those of Despard, and they were no doubt in connection with them, as it appears about the time he was apprehended, the conspiracy at Sheffield was detected, in consequence of a letter from London being intercepted at the General Post-Office. These Sheffield traitors had prepared pikes, about three times the size of a carving knife, but edged on both sides like a dagger. Their design was to seize the barracks at Sheffield, possess themselves of the arms, and then take the town. They gave themselves out to consist of about 1,000 men in Sheffield; but we trust they are not even so numerous. The prisoners were found guilty of administering the unlawful oaths, and sentenced to seven years transportation. It is a great pity they are not punished with death. Such an example at Sheffield might prove a salutary lesson, and we fear it is much wanted in that town. By an account of a Hertford county Meeting, it seems Mr. Baker, late member of Parliament for that county, thinks the conspiracy of Despard was connected with the designs of Bonaparte, to invade England at this moment. Should this conjecture be founded, the Chief Consul will, indeed, have been guilty of the blackest perfidy.
Morn. Post.
IT is extremely difficult, or rather absolutely impossible, to form any opinion as to the result of the present discussions with Bonaparte, because the grounds of dispute are known only to Ministers. There was a report yesterday so current on this subject, however that we may be authorized to state it. It was said that a most insolent letter had been sent by the First Consul to his Majesty concerning late discussions, in which Bonaparte says, that unless Malta is given up, and other points, to the satisfaction of the Court of the Tuilleries, "he will come over and overthrow ( perferera ) both the King and his kingdom." It is scarce credible that the man of Corsica could be guilty of so gross an insult to his Majesty and to the English nation. If such a message had been sent, it could be considered in no other light than an ebullition of madness, like that of Paul I. when he invited all the Princes of Europe to meet him in a tournament.

Pleasing and Important.
WASHINGTON CITY, April 20.
The following Important Letter was yesterday sent by Express to New Orleans.
OFFICIAL.
[TRANSLATION.]
SIR, I HAVE the pleasure to impart to you, without a moment's delay, that by dispatches which I have just received from my Government, brought by a brig of war of the king my master, despatched for this purpose alone, I see confirmed all the assurances, which I gave you on various preceding occasions, when I received information of the difficulties, which the citizens of the United States experienced in consequence of being deprived of the place of deposit on the Spanish banks of the Mississippi, by decree of the Intendant of New Orleans.—His Catholic Majesty, as just in his resolutions as desirous of living in the greatest harmony with the United States, has provided that the deposit should continue at New-Orleans until the two governments shall come to an agreement about another equivalent place; and to the end that this Royal Provision may be promptly and punctiliously carried into effect, the necessary orders are communicated to the Intendant and to the Captain-General of Louisiana, of which I transmit you the originals in order that you may be pleased to forward them to New-Orleans.
I hasten to acquaint you of it with much satisfaction, in order that you may communicate it to the President of the United States, as soon as possible; and I pray God to preserve your life many years.
Washington, April 19, 1803.
I kiss your hand.
Your most obedient
And faithful servant,
THE MARQUIS OF CASA YRUJO. JAMES MADISON, Esq. Secretary of State.
DEPOSIT AT NEW-ORLEANS RESTORED.
We yesterday published in an extra paper, and again insert the important letter of the Marquis of Casa Yrujo to the Secretary of State. This letter announces the entire restoration of our violated rights, in consequence of the pacific remonstrances of our government. This is an event, at which every friend of the Union, the peace and the happiness of these States will rejoice; while it will dismay, and cover with disgrace that party which has exhausted every mean of embroiling the nation in war.
Thanks to the wisdom of an energetic and virtuous government, we have obtained, without bloodshed, that, which had other councils been pursued, might have cost lives and millions without number.
People of America! forever remember that it was the republican administration of the government that preferred peace; and that it was their federal opponents who were for hurrying you into war! Nat. Intell.
NEWPORT, Saturday, April 30, 1803.
On Wednesday next, the Honorable General Assembly of this State will convene in this town, to hold their annual Election of State Officers, &c.
We congratulate the Friends of Peace upon the re-opening of NEW-ORLEANS, by order of the King of Spain.—This measure proves the wisdom of the President's pacific conduct, and demonstrates the folly of those federalists who strove to drag the country into war.
The State of South Carolina finds to the next Congress eight Representatives—out of which number, six are decidedly REPUBLICANS. "This does not look SQUALLY."
Messrs. JOHN CLOPTON, JOHN DAWSON, and JOHN SMITH, all Republicans, are elected Members of Congress from Virginia.

Extract of a letter, just received at New-York, dated Gibraltar March 9.
"Yesterday, by an accident, I saw part of a private letter from Mr. O'Brien, at Algiers, to Mr. Gavino, our consul at this place. As near as I can recollect, he expresses great fears that a rupture will shortly take place between the Dey of Algiers and the United States, owing partly to our government sending the annual tribute in cash, instead of naval stores, which he is in great want of. This circumstance, added to the great present he has lately received from the Court of Madrid, has made him a little testy. He has made a demand of 180,000 dollars from the Court of Great Britain, as an equivalent for 18 slaves, that made their escape from Oran in an English vessel; This demand, I do not think will be complied with. He has also broke his treaty with France, and made a demand upon that government for 60,000 dollars."
"Mr. O'Brien, after saying that he does not think himself safe at Algiers, and requesting Mr. Gavino to forward his letters under cover to the Swedish Consul, concludes with,
"On the 10th of February, a Spanish frigate arrived here with the new Spanish Consul, who brought a present to the Dey of 50,000 dollars, besides 120 fathoms, (making 120,000 dollars) to pay the arrears due from the court of Madrid to the Regency. Upon the receipt of the money, the Dey ordered three cruizers to be ready for sea the next week. There is no knowing the force of the Dey's squads."

Fifteen minutes shall be allowed for opening and closing the mails at all offices, where no particular time is specified. 3. For every thirty minutes delay (un- avoidable accidents excepted) in arriving after the times prescribed in any contract, the con- tractor shall forfeit one dollar; and if the delay continue until the departure of any depending mail, whereby the mails destined for such de- pending mails, lose a trip, an additional forfei- ture of five dollars shall be incurred. 4. Newspapers as well as letters are to be sent in the mail; and if any person making pro- posals, desires to carry newspapers, other than those conveyed in the mail for his own emolum- ent, he must state in his proposals, for what sum he will carry with the emolument, and for what sum without that emolument. 5. Should any person making proposals desire an alteration of the times of arrival and departure above specified, he must state in his proposals the alterations desired and the differ- ence they will make in the terms of the con- tract. 6. Persons making proposals are desired to state their prices by the year. Those who con- tract will receive their pay quarterly in the months of February, May, August, and No- vember, one month after the expiration of each quarter. 7. No other than a free white person shall be employed to convey the mail. 8. Where the proposer intends to convey the mail in the body of a stage carriage, he is desired to state it in his proposals. 9. The Postmaster General reserves to himself the right of declaring any contract at an end whenever three failures happen which a- mount to the loss of a trip each. 10. Those who wish to contract for two years, will make distinct proposals, specifying for what price they will perform the service for one year, and at what price for two years. 11. The contracts for the above routes are to be in operation on the first day of October next, and are to continue in force for one year, or two years, at the election of the Postmaster General.

MASON'S HALL LOTTERY. THE Legislature of the State of Rhode- Island, &c. at their last session, having granted permission to the Master, Wardens, and Brethren of St. John's Lodge, No. 1, in New- port, to raise by Lottery the sum of Two Thou- sand Five Hundred Dollars, to discharge the debt due on Mason's Hall; and having appointed the subscribers Managers (who have given bonds to the General Treasurer) they present the follow- ing Scheme for the patronage of the Public.
SCHEME. Not one and three-quarters of a blank to a prize.     Dollars.     1 Prize of 2500 Dollars is 2500   1 1000 1000   2 500 1000   4 250 1000   10 100 1000   10 50 500   10 25 250   10 20 200   355 10 3550   1500 6 9000    1903 Prizes. 3097 Blanks. 5000 Tickets at 4 Dollars is 20000
This Scheme is calculated for the advan- tage of adventurers; there being not one and three-quarters of a blank to a prize, and the prizes only subject to a deduction of twelve and one-half per cent. The encouragement and assistance which the Managers flatter themselves will be given to this Lottery, by the Masonic Fraternity in this and the neighbouring States, leaves them without a doubt that the Tickets will meet a speedy sale, and that the drawing will commence in a short time; which as soon as finished, a list of the prizes will be published, and thirty days after, the prizes will be punctu- ally paid.—Those Prizes which are not demanded within twelve months after drawn, will be deemed generously given for the purpose of the Lottery.

TALLIO, FORMERLY owned by Gov. Potter, a beautiful blood bay Horse, of size, figure, and movements; has proved himself to be one of the best horses that has ever been bred among us, as may be observed from his acts in the county of Washington, some of which have been sold for Two Hundred Dollars at two years old. TALLIO was fired by the young Liberty, while fire ran at Newport against Tanguis's horse. Any Gentleman, therefore, who would wish to improve in their breed of horses, are solicited to call at the stable of Mr. Ansel Gardner, (Boston Neck) where the above horse may be seen on Mondays and Tuesdays from the first Monday and Tuesday in May; there to continue through the season on Mondays and Tuesdays; and Fridays and Saturdays at the stable of Mr. Samuel Allen (North Kingstown).—The re- maining part of the season he will be at the sta- ble of the subscriber, in South Kingstown.— The terms of service, are Three Dollars the sea- son, money paid down; but if the money be not paid down, Four Dollars will be required; and One Dollar & fifty Cents the single leap. ** Good pasturing for mares, at the above stables.
