Patent Washing Machines.
THE subscriber respectfully informs his friends and the public in general, that he has, some time ago, purchased an exclusive right of making and vending Patent Washing Machines throughout the hundreds of Brandywine and Christiana, in New-Castle county, a number of which machines he has already made, which have been tried by divers persons and highly approved of, as they save a great part of the labour of washing in the usual way, and are less injurious to clothes. He will continue to make and have a supply of them on hand, which he will sell on reasonable terms to such as favour him with their custom; and will also sell to any person a right to make and use them within the hundreds aforesaid.

DR. DODDRIDGE'S RISE AND PROGRESS Of Religion in the Soul.
MR. ROBERT PORTER, of this town, has issued proposals for publishing the above excellent Book, by subscription, on good paper, and with a plain common sized type, at the very low price of fifty cents.
Perhaps, next to the Bible, this is the best book extant for private and family use....No one is better calculated to awaken, convince and convert sinners, and to conduct them in the straight and narrow path to Heaven; as doubtless the experience of many can witness....No one is more highly esteemed by pious people of all denominations, as is abundantly evident from the numerous editions it has passed through both in this country and Europe.
As the proposed price is only half the sum it is now selling for in most of our Book-stores, it will be seen, that neither the Printer, nor any persons who promote the work, have any object in view, but the good of souls, and the glory of God.
It is presumed that every one who wishes for the spiritual rise and progress of religion in his own soul, or his family, will subscribe, and that all friends of religion will encourage the work.
Recommendation by New-Castle Presbytery. Whereas ROBERT PORTER, has issued proposals for printing Dr. Doddridge's Rise and Progress of Religion in the Soul, at a very low price.
Resolved, That the Presbytery do recommend so the people under their care, to subscribe for said excellent Book. September 9, 1809.
For the prevention and cure of bilious and malignant fevers is recommended.
Lee's Anti-Bilious Pills.
Prepared by Richard Lee and Son Baltimore. Persons wishing to purchase this valuable medicine are requested to be particular in enquiring for Lee's Anti-Bilious Pills, put up in wooden boxes, having on the outside wrapper the signature of Richard Lee & Son—this is necessary as there are other pills of the same name.
The operation of these highly esteemed pills is perfectly mild, and the experience of thousands has proved, they may be used in very severe situation in life without the least inconvenience or damage.
They are admirably adapted to carry off superfluous bile, and prevents its morbid secretions—to restore the appetite, produce a regular habit of the body, promote free perspiration, and thereby prevent colds, so often attended with fatal consequences to the lives of thousands—and seldom, if ever, fail to remove a cold, if taken on its first appearance. Habitual costiveness, and its opposite, are removed by their wholesome influence, as also those diseases arising from them, head aches and sickness from the stomach.
It is almost unnecessary to state, that on the regular habit of the system, the health of mankind depends. To conduct to this all-important object, perhaps no medicine was ever more generally successful than these pills—they never do harm, and at least nine times out of ten afford relief to those who use them for the purposes for which they are intended.
With the most perfect confidence we recommend these pills to the public, and will only further add, that their operation is always pleasant, and that they leave nothing of that costiveness behind them too often attending medicines designed for similar purposes.
Ten years have justified us in stating these facts, during which we have had a very extensive and constantly increasing sale for this truly valuable medicine.

TO THE LADIES
Faces and complexion are injured with Freckles, Pimples, Black worms, Tan or Ayburn, Ring worms, Prickly heat, &c.
To those persons is recommended,
Lee's Persian Lotion,
A certain remedy for removing those disagreeable barriers to beauty, the proprietors with the most sacred regard to truth, and the credit of these medicines assure the afflicted, that all the different appearances above enumerated, are in a short time subdued by wetting the parts affected, with this pleasant fluid, according to the directions on each bottle.
Persons therefore who regard, either what is due to themselves, or the favour and opinion of the world, who can distinguish between the comeliness of health, and the deformity of disease, and who can weigh the advantages which belong to, and are inseparable from an engaging appearance, to which perhaps, they themselves, have by nature, the strongest claims are seriously assured, that these advantages, so far as belonging to a good skin, are to be obtained by the use of his Lotion, however violently they may happen to be afflicted.
Instead of the studious, and debilitating course of medicines, which patients went through formerly, and which, perhaps, they are still too frequently obliged to undergo, it is now found, that the greatest number of these complaints, are more certainly, and speedily removed by the use of local remedies merely, than they ever were by a contrary course.
LEE'S LOTION.
Is celebrated among the fashionable throughout Europe, as an invaluable cosmetic, perfectly innocent and safe, free from corrosive and repellant materials (the bane of other lotions) and of unparalleled efficacy in preventing and removing blemishes on the face and skin of every kind, it operates mildly, without impeding that natural, insensible perspiration, which is so essential to health, yet its effects are speedily and permanent, rendering the skin delicately soft and clear, improving the complexion and restoring the bloom of youth. Sold at the Bookstore of Matthew Lockerman.

WILMINGTON COLLEGE.
THE Trustees of Wilmington College take pleasure in being able to announce to the public the revival of the Latin school in this institution, under the immediate care of Mr. Bigelow and general superintendence of the Rev. Dr. Read. The healthy situation of Wilmington, its character for morality, the goodness of its market and choice of best boarding houses, joined to the evidence of Mr. Bigelow's capacity as a teacher, and the long and justly established reputation of Dr. Read as a successful preceptor, all concur to recommend this seminary to the attention of Parents and Guardians, anxious to promote the education and improvement of the youth intrusted to their care, especially when they are further assured that the other departments of the College are provided with tutors fully adequate to their appointments, and unexceptionable moral characters.

* That scientific author speaking of the French and Indian wars about the time of Braddock's defeat describes the effect the news had in England thus:—Swift as the broad-winged packets could fly across the deep, the news was carried to England. Its effects there was like that of a stone rudely hurled against a nest of hornets. Instantly, from centre to circumference, all is rage and bustle....The hive resounds with the maddening insects: dark tumbling from their cells they spread the hasty wing, and shrill whizzing through the air, they rush to find the foe. Just so in the sea-rolling island, from queen to house to ale-house, from king to cookery, all were fierce for fight. Even the red-nosed porters, where they met, bending under their burdens, would stop, fall out, in the streets, to talk of ENGLAND'S wrongs; and, as they talked, their fiery snouts were seen to grow more fiery still, and more deform. They threw their packs to the ground, and leaping into the attitude of boxers, with sturdy arms across and rough black jaws stretched out, they bent forward to the fancied fight! The frog-eating, toe, in shirt-ruffles and long lank cue, seems to give ground! they rising in their might, with fire striking eyes they press hard upon him, and coming in, hand and foot, with kick and cuff and many a hearty curse, they shew the goggling crown, how damn 'em! they would thump the French."

Having disclosed our detailed view of the internal measures pursued during Mr. Jefferson's administration, we are naturally brought to a consideration of the general situation of the country. Is it prosperous or wretched? The answer to this inquiry will conclusively decide, independently of every other consideration, the merits of his administration. For if it is prosperous, its prosperity must flow either directly from the measures of the government, or virtually from the government having abstained from every measure calculated to check the natural progress of the country.
Let the appeal then be carried to the conscience of every honest man by requiring a true answer to the following questions.
Is there a political right dear to free men that has been invaded during Mr. Jefferson's Administration?
Is there at present a human being who can justly affirm that he is not in the actual enjoyment of all the liberty that is compatible with a good government?
Has the right of suffrage, in any part of the union, been abridged?
Has it not, on the contrary, been greatly extended?
Have the broad principles of religious liberty in a single instance been violated?
Has the property of any one been invaded?
Is there not, at this moment, the surest enjoyment of liberty, religion and property?
Has there been any increase of public burthens?
On the contrary, has there not been a great reduction of them connected with a redemption of thirty millions of the public debt?
Has not the quota of taxes paid by each individual sensibly diminished, so much so, that at present only one dollar and sixty cents are annually paid, while at the commencement of Mr. Jefferson's administration two dollars and eighteen cents were annually paid by each individual?
Have not the numbers of our people increased in as rapid a ratio, as has ever before been known on the face of the earth, and is not this an unequivocal evidence of prosperity?
Has not our wealth increased in the same, if not in an accelerated ratio?
Has the labourer, during the whole of Mr. Jefferson's administration, wanted employment, or the capitalist been unable to find objects for a lucrative business?
Have not monied institutions, evincive of the great accumulation of riches, sprung up in every part of the union; and have they not all prospered?
Have not the arts that contribute to comfort risen with unexpected vigor, and those that embellish life evinced a sensible progress?
Do we not ourselves, as well as the whole civilized world, consider our national existence, liberty and prosperity as placed upon firmer foundations than were thought to support them at the commencement of Mr. Jefferson's administration?
Is there an American citizen, or intelligent foreigner, that will admit that our situation, compared with that of any other nation, is happy and even enviable?
Finally, Is there an American, who can put his hand on his heart, and affirm that the situation of his country is less prosperous now than at the commencement of Mr. Jefferson's administration he expected it would be?
These various questions admit of but one reply, which proves the existence of a solid internal prosperity,
that, it may be safely pronounced, has never been the lot of any other people.
A nation thus prosperous within may bid defiance to foreign injustice. Its posterity is indeed abundant proof of its invulnerability, and, consequently (whatever delusion may temporarily prevail,) of the impotence of the folly that sports with its feelings and tramples upon its rights.
FROM THE AURORA.
SCENE OF A NATIONAL BANK.
Let an act of Congress pass, establishing one general and national bank, and assuming the stock of all private banks, with their capital and debts due.
Let the stockholders first draw 6 per cent. and then half the surplus, not exceeding 3 per cent.—the remaining surplus to go to the use of the government.
The directors to be appointed, one fourth by the president, and the rest elected by the stockholders within the states.
Every deposit of cash to draw 3 per cent. interest, whether it be private or public property, with a privilege to take stock at the end of one year, at a price to be fixed at the preceding annual term by Congress, and the profits of the sale of new stock to go to the use of the government.
[Minor details omitted.]
The benefits arising out of such an establishment are many and important. In the first place, an interest of perhaps 3 per cent. on 100,000,000 of dollars, would go to the national treasury, or 3,000,000 per annum.—In the next place the string of inconveniences arising from having so many different kinds of paper in circulation as there are banks, would be avoided, whilst the alarms of one bank suffering a ruin from others would cease, and all doubts about the safety and security of bank paper would soon be forgotten, and this paper become the entire medium, giving stability to government finances, and attachment to monied interests. Nor is it of small importance to bring this subject within the grasp of the general government, if only to prevent the abuse into which it will surely run from the increase of banking institutions, from rival states, towns and persons carrying the banking business to excess, and from being more difficult to detect counterfeits, where the kinds of paper medium are so numerous and various.
Three millions annually to the treasury, with the other public and private advantages being of serious concern to the nation—it remains to enquire what are the objections to it. Will the present stockholders refuse to surrender their charters and blend their interest in hodge podge?
Without entering into the inducements which stockholders would find in a general amalgamation of bank stock, under the fostering influence of government—I shall consider the power of congress to force them to acquiesce, or cease to be stockholders; there choice would therefore be the result of necessity, or choice of the lesser evil, which, if not the most pleasant, is always the most sure ground to go upon.
It is well known that before and during the revolution, bills of credit were emitted by the states and by congress, solely for the public benefit and no such thing as banks suffered. These bills of credit supported the state and general governments, and would have supported the war, but for the excesses of the emissions, which reduced its value, and finally sunk it into no value, which though not without its advantages to the public, fell very heavy on the monied interest. That, at the formation of the general constitution for the union, it was thought prudent to take from the states the right to issue bills of credit, in order to prevent such another catastrophe—hence, we find it provided in section 10, article 1, "No state shall coin money, emit bills of credit," &c. Here then it is clearly unconstitutional for a state to emit bills of credit—and by inference of sound policy what cannot be done directly, cannot indirectly. It therefore only remains to examine if a bank note be a bill of credit, to determine whether the charters granted to the banking companies by the states are valid. To try this question, suppose the states to issue a paper currency in the words of a bank note, would such paper be constitutional? As this question is answered, it will follow either that the charters are void, or the states have shamefully thrown a very important interest from the people into the hands of a monied few, and which indirectly violates the provisions of the state constitutions, which declares that all laws shall be equal, and yet suffers these chartered stockholders to draw 8, 10, or 12 per cent., while other laws forbid more than 6, under the penalty of forfeiture and fine.
I cannot, however, think it necessary to consume time in proving what must be too clear to need proof; that a bank note, or any piece of paper purporting that the bearer shall receive the nominal amount is a bill of credit, no matter what the words are—or that what a state cannot do in its capacity as a state, it cannot do by third persons, and consequently that every charter granted is unconstitutional and void.
It then follows to enquire, if such is the case, can congress grant a charter, and ought congress to do so?
The constitution has no where given, in express language, the power to emit bills of credit—But it has given impliedly all the powers which the states are debarred from using, and expressly the power to provide for the general welfare; to borrow money; to coin money; to punish counterfeiting, &c. Although it is clear the right of congress is better than the right of the states, yet if a doubt existed, there is no doubt but an amendment might be had to give the power expressly. Because it is for the general and particular welfare that banking should go on—and it is an insufferable abuse to give corporate associations exclusive privileges at the expence of the people.
The sum that government could gain in this way, would be adequate to build a navy; fortify the union: canal and turnpike the union, or give general education to the poor.
Shall then these very important national benefits all be neglected; or be sunk at the footstool of a monied aristocracy, already too proud, and who keep their property beyond taxation, and themselves out of the way of public service?
It is pleasing to reflect that the honest part of the federalists are shaking off their prejudices against their own government, and uniting with the Republicans in support of the present administration: and indeed, how can it be otherwise? If they ever mean to escape from federal deception and delusion, they will escape now. There is no other alternative. They must either relinquish all claims to the name of Americans; or justify the British, join the Essex Junta, and openly declare "Great Britain has done us no essential injury"—notwithstanding she has impressed our seamen, violated our maritime jurisdiction, murdered our citizens in time of peace, insulted our government, and perfidiously disavowed the act of her authorised minister. It is not possible for a man to be a real American, and justify such accumulated wrongs. If Americans can ever be roused, they will be roused now. The British faction who cried down the embargo, non-intercourse, and every measure that could protect the nation against British outrage, will soon become as obnoxious to the people, as were the old Tories and refugees of '75.—Boston Chron.
We are happy to find that the delusion and infatuation which existed among the federal citizens of the New England States in consequence of the pressure of the Embargo, &c. which the enemies of our government took infinite pains to represent as an oppressive and unconstitutional measure, is fast passing away. The late elections in Rhode Island and Vermont fully demonstrate the fact. We congratulate our republican fellow citizens on the glorious result of these elections, as well as on the great change which has taken place in the minds of the people of this state in consequence of the perfidy of the British government; so that we can calculate almost with certainty, that the next spring elections will give a large majority of votes for the Patriotic Farmer Levi Lincoln , Esq. for governor—who the last spring received the free, uniaid suffrages of Forty five Thousand FREEMEN, notwithstanding the then federal song of Gore and Free Trade!—Gore and no Embargo!—which has now lost its charm. Ib.
The Policy of Bonaparte contrasted with that of England—copied from the Edinburgh Review, Number 25, October, 1808.
BONAPARTE bends all his force to effect some grand operation in one quarter. Upon the late of the cause in that quarter every thing else hinges in the most distant scenes. Upon this single view of the subject is built the constant, steady, masterly, resistless policy of Bonaparte, from the attack of a post up to the combination of entire campaigns. Examine his battles and indeed those of all the great commanders of France, and we shall find that the plan of each engagement is similar to the general system of their military policy. They direct a vast column to one well chosen point; break through the line in that quarter; defeat the neighbouring parts of it, and the rest falls before them.
Suppose he means to gain several objects in different parts of his extensive dominions. For example, to drive the English out of Portugal—to reduce the King of Sweden to an amicable acknowledgement of his title—to expel the Neapolitans from the Continent, or defend his new kingdom, Italy—to take a province or two from
the German prince—to punish, perhaps, destroy Prussia. Now if Bonaparte's counsellors were taken from the English political cast , it is very plain what method he would adopt to gain all those points. He would in the first place take care to make war without the shadow of a pretence, and put himself clearly in the wrong before all Europe; he would next delay doing any thing until the season for operations was nearly gone by; he would then probably treat a little, and be duped by his allies, and cavil and wrangle a good deal, and quarrel with some of them, and excite a hatred with all of them, and of himself, and a contempt of his plan, among his own subjects. But all these preliminaries of failure being settled, he would at last come to his operations; and his policy would be to get up a number of neat little expeditions, equal in number to the things he wants to take, just one for each thing. He would send an expedition towards Sweden; and the sea not being his element, it would probably fail of itself. He would then send a tolerably large and intolerably expensive expedition to some part of Germany—and another towards Italy—a smaller expedition to Portugal—a nice little one to take a slice off Bavaria—besides a sort of by expedition to plunder Hamburg, and burn, for stage effect, some other capital in alliance with him, merely to astonish people and look vigorous.
Instead of enquiring what would probably be the result of all this drivelling, which is indeed too plain to require any statement, let us remark rather how Bonaparte does act, not having English politicians to advise him. He leaves Naples alone; if Joseph can support himself well; if not, he will restore him after the campaign is won. He leaves Sicily alone, filled with English troops, who are just as usefully employed for him, as if he had them in his depot of prisons—filled too with the squabbles and intrigues of his faithful allies the old royal sovereigns and courtiers of Europe. Portugal he leaves to the English army, there assembled for the precise purpose of doing all sorts of nothings against him. He cares not if the English are mad enough to make a descent on Calabria in his absence, or childish enough, because it may have a partial success, to reward those who ventured on so useless an enterprise, instead of calling them to an instantaneous and severe account. All other objects of subordinate importance, he leaves in like manner to themselves. The Swede is allowed to strut his little hour of squibs, manifestoes, and bulletins. The Turk is unmolested; except by his allies, Egypt is occupied by none but English forces. Eager for ships, colonies and commerce, he defies all trading speculations till the season of victory and peace; nor envies at all the plunder of the rajahs of the east, nor once throws away a thought on all the sugars of the west. But his game is not the less sure for being more contracted in its sphere. He singles out the vital part of his whole adversary, and the point of it which is most exposed. In that vulnerable part he plants his dagger; and he knows full well, that the remotest limb will quiver, with the shock. He sends forth his host in the plenitude of its array, to sweep over the interjacent regions, and to pour itself in one grand, deep, but contracted and therefore irresistible torrent, into the center of the strength of Europe. Here, as near Berlin and Vienna as he can he fights his battle; and while you are menacing the western departments—or landing and re-embarking in Italy—or capitulating in Holland—or idling in Portugal and Egypt—or butchering your friends in the north—or burying your own men and planting the slave trade in the West-Indies—he is playing that great game which must place in his hands the sweep of all those small stakes for which you are pretending to throw. Do you doubt whether he shall win the game he plays for? If you do, why, then don't you send your men there to meet him? Think you that he even doubts of his success? It may be that he does—but he knows that the only way to gain it is to think of nothing else than victory, and at any rate, to think of no other contest than this; above all, he feels, the folly of being either victorious, or vanquished in a little way. He knows, that if he conquers the Imperial or the Prussian arms in the center of the empire, he shall find no difficulty in carrying all the other points—no trouble but in preventing the escape of your forces from the little posts which they have been senselessly occupying; and, if he should be overcome in Germany he must make up his mind, not merely to the loss of those petty objects, but to being overcome in Germany—to the utter ruin of his foreign power. Plain and simple as this consideration is, and constantly as we have seen him act upon it, we have never yet been able to profit by his example, and by the sight of those victories which he has achieved, so as to alter, in the very least degree, our own fatal policy towards all our allies.
AMERICAN MANUFACTURES.
It is highly pleasing to observe the spirit prevailing in various parts of the U. States to encourage our internal manufactures.—There is nothing more calculated to check the insolence of foreign nations, especially England, than a vigorous exertion to furnish ourselves with such articles as we have so long been in the habit of importing from them. The raw materials within our country can be more beneficially used at home, than sent abroad to employ the people of other nations: our labor can be as useful to ourselves as to them. The population of the U. S. is adequate to all the purposes of agriculture and manufactures, if brought into proper operation. But the failure has been, that we have not apportioned the employment of our citizens to those various

branches; but have inconsiderately pursued a commerce, which has taken so many from our lands and looms, that the number remaining has not been adequate to the purposes of carrying on manufactures to the extent our demands require. In proportion to our population, there are double the number within the U. States engaged in commerce, and in the common line of store-keeping, shop-keeping, &c. than in any part of Europe. Our seaports are filled with this kind of traders, and every town in the country has a large proportion of these retailers of foreign merchandise. Nearly an eighth part of the citizens are employed as mere agents to sell the manufactures of other nations. This class of citizens it is supposed might pursue a business in the manufacturing branches vastly more lucrative, and equally honorable. A hearty robust man, to sit beside his counter from morning till night, just to attend a few customers, cannot be so profitably employed, as if he turned his attention to some more active business in the manufacturing line. If instead of such an immense body of mere shop-keeping traders, we had about the third of the number engaged in the various branches of manufactures, there is no doubt they would obtain a much better living, than in buying and selling foreign articles. The price of rents for shops and stores much greatly exceed the hire of large convenient places near the seaports; and by the erection of mills, and the use of machines, in a few years the persons would find themselves as well rewarded for their undertaking. The cotton manufactory has become a very extensive and profitable branch of business. The employment of women and children establishes a habit of industry; such children earn a handsome support for their parents, and place themselves in a situation above dependence when they arrive to years of maturity. How much more beneficial is this employment both for children and parents, than to spend four or five years behind a counter to learn how to retail articles which they might be able to manufacture for themselves.  Bost. Chron.
Progress of Manufactures.
Mr. Seth Wheaton and others, of Providence, R. I. have lately erected a Cotton Mill of stone, with six floors, forty feet wide and two hundred and eleven feet long, competent to drive more than ten thousand spindles, which is expected to commence working in November.
We are gratified to see, that in that part of the Union, a manufacturing spirit pervades the people. There are said to be more than fifty Cotton Mills erected in the New-England States; and the artists employed in them are in all respects equal to Europeans.
Not only spinning, but weaving establishments are in operation, so that we may soon expect the New-England cotton fabrics supplanting those of Old-England.
In the present state of our affairs, it is peculiarly gratifying to learn, that, notwithstanding the opposition of Tories, and the wiles of incendiaries, the manufactures of our country are gradually gaining ground. In Shippensburg, Pennsylvania, (a post town, containing about 200 houses) there are 3 woolen and 4 cotton railing machines, and fifty-five spindles, which upon a moderate calculation, will average 88 dozens, or 44 lbs. of cotton yarn per day. Thus far the operations are carried on without robbing agriculture or commerce of one useful hand, for none but women and children are employed. The raw materials are increased in value by these operations 220 percent, and, after all wages, useful repairs, and common expenses are paid, there will be a nett profit of from 90 to 120 per cent on the capital employed. Notwithstanding the low price of British goods, want of capital and every disadvantage, the business gradually extending, and new establishments daily erecting.
Two establishments of no inconsiderable magnitude are contemplated in the vicinity of Kingston, Ulster county, N. Y. One is a glass-house, which is to be erected in Woodstock, by the Ulster Glass Manufacturing Company. Sand, supposed to be suitable for making glass, is found in abundance near the site. The other is a Cotton Manufactory, to contain one thousand spindles, to be erected by Mr. Geo. Eddy. It is contemplated to make considerable progress in both these undertakings, the present season.
It appears, from an accurate estimate, published in the northern papers, that Great Britain collects at the port of Liverpool alone, from raw materials imported from this country, an annual revenue of about ten millions, eight hundred thousand dollars, and at least an equal sum from all the other ports in the Kingdom.
It will be said by some, this is no matter, the duty is paid by the consumer in that country; but a single fact will show the contrary. When the article of cotton paid a duty of three pence sterling a pound only, it generally sold at a higher price than it now does, when it pays a duty of nine cents and a half; and, as cotton, as well as other produce, is generally shipped for American account, this difference in the duty falls entirely on the American Planter, as much so as if it was a duty imposed upon the articles before they were put on board the vessels which export them.

A FEW PLAIN QUESTIONS.
To the Editors of Federal Newspapers generally, to which it is expected an answer will not be refused.
1st. During the last election in Massachusetts when the President's Proclamation and the correspondence between Smith and Erskine arrived, did you not tell us that Great-Britain had been always disposed to settle our differences honourably—that she had before made the same propositions to Mr. Jefferson, which his hostility to her and French influence had prevented his accepting?
2d. Do you not now tell us, that she never did make such propositions—and do you not censure Mr. Erskine for acting without instructions?
3d. Were you guilty of falsehood and misrepresentation then, or are you guilty now? and if you shamefully and basely deceived your readers at the election, do you really think you are entitled to their confidence on any occasion? Would any of you employ a servant who had wilfully deceived you when his passions or his interest prompted him?
4th. Do you not in your consciences believe that you deserve the appellation of TORIES , when, to maintain the cause of Britain, to extol her goodness and to enshrine her justice, in defiance of truth and regardless of conscience, you sacrificed the reputation of Mr. Jefferson and betrayed the confidence of your readers?
5th. Finally, do you feel that you have done justice to Mr. Jefferson in charging him with French influence for not according to propositions, which you acknowledge were never made?
Though you may seek security in silence, and may hope for forgetfulness in this dreadful crisis of our fate, when the destinies of our country are suspended by a single hair; yet be not deceived, for the sentence of your guilt will soon be pronounced by the voice of an indignant people, who equally despise and abhor British intrigues, whether foreign or domestic.

Ecommunication of Bonaparte.
We have been favoured with a copy of the discourse addressed on the 11th July 1798 by the Pope to Bonaparte, recapitulating the injuries he had heaped upon him, and admonishing him against the consequences, which would inevitably ensue. As it was never hitherto before the public, it will be read with deep interest. For its authenticity we pledge ourselves.

THE ALLOCUTION
of his Holiness Pius VII. to
THE EMPEROR BONAPARTE.
Since the time, when by the decree of providence, notwithstanding our unworthiness, we were invested with the sovereign pontificate, you have been a witness of our wish for the peace of the Catholic Church—You have been a witness of our wishes for the spiritual peace of the French people and of our paternal condescension—You have been a witness of the benefits, which we have conferred on the Gallican church, yourself and your subjects—You have been a witness that under all the circumstances, we have lent ourselves, so far as lay in our power, to all the concessions and concordats with the French Empire and Kingdom of Italy. In fine, you have been a witness of the immense sacrifices which we have made to the detriment of our people, for the benefit and the repose of the French and Italian nations; and which are such, that our subjects already in misery are unable to procure the means of subsistence—You however, in return for so many favours, have not ceased to fill our heart with bitterness, to reduce us to the greatest extremities under false pretences and to harass our conscience. In return for the ecclesiastical concordat, you have not ceased to seek to destroy it by separate laws, called organic. You have made to us propositions, calculated to that effect, and irreconcilable with the morality of the gospel and with the unalterable maxims of the universal Catholic church.
In return for these benefits, the states of the Holy See have had to support the enormous burden of your troops, in such a way, that since the year 1801 up to the present time, they have wasted five millions of Roman crowns, without keeping the solemn promise of reimbursement by the kingdom of Italy. In return for these sacrifices you have despoiled us of the Dutchies of Benevento and of Ponte Corvo, under promises of indemnifying the Holy See, in the most generous manner. In return for our condescension, you have demanded our sanction to articles contrary to the law of nations, to the unity and the canons of the church, to the good of the Catholics of other kingdoms, and destruction of our independence and of the liberty of the church. To accomplish these designs, you have invaded as an enemy, not our States only, but the estates given to the Apostolic See by the piety and generosity of sovereigns for the most part French, states consecrated to the independence and to the liberty of the successors of St. Peter, and confirmed to the common father of all the faithful, by all the Catholic princes, during eleven centuries of possessions, in order that the common father might enjoy in the midst of his children, complete liberty and independence. In short, you have invaded, as an enemy, the capital itself;
you have caused the military to revolt; you have occupied with an armed force the Post office and the printing houses; you have torn from our bosom our counsellors, who aided us in conducting the affairs of the Catholic Church, and the ministers of justice; you have even kept us prisoners in our apostolic residence, while our people were trod upon by your soldiers. We even appeal to yourself, to pronounce your own conduct marked by a contempt of all the rights of nations, of your sacred duties and your people. We appeal even to you as a man whom we have consecrated, and who had sworn to repair the losses and to maintain the rights of the Church. Take care, however, lest if you do not stop short, we should exercise, though in all humanity of heart that authority which almighty God has placed in our hands; take care lest you add new motives to make known to the world the justice of our cause; for then, all the misfortunes which shall fall on our conduct must be passed to your personal account.

STATE ELECTION.
The result of the election in this state, must be highly gratifying to every real American. For some months past the return to correct principles has been rapid beyond precedent. Last year the average Democratic majority of New-Castle county was about 600—it is now augmented to 1300. In Kent the Federal majority has decreased 300 votes since last election. From Sussex we have not yet received returns, but have reason to believe that the average Federal majority will not exceed 100 votes, and have a gloomy expectation of the success of part of the Democratic ticket. The Federal majority in that county has heretofore exceeded nine hundred!

From the American Republican.
MR. MOWRY,
Agreeably to your advertisement of Dr. Dorridge's Rise and Progress of Religion in the Soul , I think that every friend to religion should encourage the work.
I have had one in my family for many years, and have now subscribed for seven with a view to give one to each of my children, the most of whom are married and moved away. Next to the bible, this is the best book for common people that I have ever read—I wish every family and every private person had one. A young man or young woman, who labours for a living, cannot lay out half a dollar with a better prospect of great good in any other way.
This book does not offend any denomination of religion—and I have been informed by some respectable Friends, that it is highly esteemed by people of their society, who have read it. It is not so generally known by them as 'Thomas A. Kempis's Imitation of Christ,' but is a more suitable book for all classes of people.
I am much pleased that the Presbyterians have recommended it, and hope that every minister and elder, and indeed every friend to religion, of whatever name, will assist Mr. Porter, in so laudable an undertaking. The very low price of the book, shews that his main object is not private gain, but general good—such men should be patronized.
I shall soon have to leave all my little remaining property to my children, and I think a few religious books, given while I live, may be more useful to them and more pleasing to God, than the same value left them in other property. Though they should not read them and profit by them, their children may.
By giving the above a place you will oblige A BAPTIST FARMER.
LATEST FROM SPAIN.
NEW-YORK, Oct. 4, (noon.) Late last night, the Spanish frigate Cornelia , capt. Don Joseph Rodriguez de Arias, arrived at the quarantine ground. She sailed from Cadiz on the 20th of August. This vessel has brought out his Excellency Don Lewis de Onis, Minister Plenipotentiary and Envoy Extraordinary from his Catholic Majesty Ferdinand the 7th, near the United States of America; also, Don Bartholomew Rengenet Consul from His Catholic Majesty for Philadelphia, their ladies, daughters and domestics; and Mr. Richard Bailey, of this city.
On the 20th ult. the frigate spoke the ship Ariadne , Wyberg, 27 days from Liverpool to Charleston—Informed, that the English had not possession of all the islands on the coast of Holland.
We also learn, that after the battle of Talavera, the French army attacked Ge. N'Venegas in Aranjuez, and were driven back with considerable loss, after three hard-fought battles.—Venegas afterwards returned towards Sierra Morena principally for want of provisions, the French having destroyed every thing. The French garrison of Madrid had gone into Retiro, with their adherents, the people of Aragon having risen up against them, and gone out to meet Venegas in his advance.
Gerona had been relieved by gen. Blake, who was concentrating his army and collecting artillery at Tostosa, for the purpose of going against Sarragossa, where the French had been obliged to concentrate their force, in consequence of all the people of Aragon having rose en masse against them.
Gerona had defended itself as bravely as Sarragossa—even the women performed prodigies of valor.
The Spanish mountaineers of Aragon, Navarree, and Catalonia, had entered France in different places, burnt several towns and laid heavy contributions on others.
The Junta were still at Seville, but expected to be able to go to Madrid in a short time.
Joseph Bonaparte with 6000 men, had left Madrid, and gone to Sommasierra, which is the strong pass from Madrid into France.
The Spanish 74, St. Fulgencio, had arrived at Cadiz from Lima, with eight millions of dollars.
Mr. Erskine on Monday last, presented his letters of recall, and took leave of the President; and Mr. Jackson was on Tuesday presented to him.

Poetry.
A WISH.
Mine be the abbey's wild retreat, With park and wood surrounded wide, Where grass should form a verdant seat, And field flowers shed their scented pride;
The abbey, where the armour'd hall Should own the painted widow's light; The oak-grown walk, where rooks should call, Returning from their evening flight;
The river lost among the trees, The torrent rushing down the steep; Groves, where the summer's sighing breeze In moonlight night might tempt to sleep:
There, through the lonely path I'd rove, And stop to catch the vita's gleam; Led by the valued youth I love, I'd watch the sun's expiring beam.
Oft on his arm I'd range the wood, Or, lonely, in the park I'd read, Or frequent seek the shaded flood, Rousing the wild deer with my tread.
And as the moon, in Autumn's night, Silver'd the fallen leaves, and cast Along our path a track of light, We'd rove, nor fear the howling blast.
The leafless trees, the thick strewn path, May call uncheck'd the thinking sigh, And the loud wind's destructive wrath May warn us that we both must die.
But then the rolling orbs above, The starry concave, would proclaim That other worlds should see our love, And sanctify the glorious name.
ANOTHER WISH.
From empty dishes and from empty mugs, From suits at law, apothecaries drugs— From pinching boots and shoes, sore shins and corns, A faithless wife, and from a pair of horns, A smoky house, a scold, a slut, a fool, A broken penknife, and a crooked rule— From a dull horse, to use the spur and stick, And always from a dirty rascal's kick, From wanton daughters, and from spendthrift sons, From griping sharps, and a set of duns, Inconstant friends, as fickle as the wind, An empty pocket and a sordid mind, From wounds which cowards get who turn and run, A worthless dog, and from a broken gun— From pinching hunger and from burning thirst, A drunkard's guzzle and a glutton's gust, From a small bottle and a narrow neck, A narrow soul, blue shirts and striped back, From bed infested by a bug or flea— From each of these may I continue free.
Miscellany.
ACHMET AND FATIMA.
Achmet Manora was an accomplished young man of a distinguished family in Belgrade, a town belonging to the Turkish dominions, situated on the river Danube. An event that crowned his wishes and seemed to complete his earthly happiness was his marriage to Fatima, a lady of exquisite beauty, and rare accomplishments, and was the only daughter of Hasan Buglo, a bashaw in the armies of Turkey. Their marriage was solemnized on the 4th of July, 1789; and the evening of the same day the town of Belgrade was besieged by the Austrian troops.
Although the siege was sudden, most of the principal families had made their escape before the place was invested by the enemy; but Achmet had been too much occupied with the affairs of his wedding to prepare for flight until it was too late. The town was in a manner surrounded by a powerful army panting for conquest and thirsting for blood; and there was reason to expect, if it were taken by storm, that the female part of the inhabitants would fall victims to the brutal violence of a licentious soldiery, to which the singular beauty of Fatima would but more expose her.
In these circumstances of extreme distress, and terror, Achmet determined at all hazards to convey his bride to a place of safety. He had her dressed as a young man of fashion, and putting himself in the habit of a slave, left the town at 12 o'clock at night, hoping to reach some safe retreat before the return of day. They
had scarce begun their midnight wanderings, when loud peals of thunder increased the terrors of Fatima. The rain fell in torrents, the darkness increased, they wandered about bewildered and forlorn till day appeared, when they found themselves surrounded by a patrolling party of Austrian soldiers, and were seized and hurried to the main guard. By order of the Prince of Saxe Coburg who commanded the Austrian army, they were examined apart, and as their story was contradictory, they were condemned to be executed as spies.
Fatima was informed that she had but half an hour to live. She received this sentence with composure, and only begged that her servant might be permitted to carry her a few trifling articles as remembrances to her friends; for she had still indulged a hope that Achmet, passing for a slave would be free from suspicion and out of danger. But scarce had she finished that request when she beheld her beloved Achmet passing by under a guard of armed men: with extreme agitation, she inquired what was to be his fate, and was answered, that they were conducting him to instant death. At the word death she gave a piercing shriek, and fell from her seat in convulsions. The officer present flew to her assistance: and unbuttoning her waistcoat to give her air, they perceived that their prisoner was a woman.
The execution of Achmet was suspended; and the prince of Coburg was informed of the particulars! He examined them himself, and having learned their real situation, he furnished them with suitable garments and the same day had them conducted to a village whither their disconsolate friends had previously fled from the besieging army.
