Eleven Thousand Acres of LAND, in one or more lots; laying in the county of Fayette, state of Kentucky, about 30 miles from Lexington and Frankfort, 20 miles south east of the Ohio river and adjacent to the public road between the two Miami Rivers and several rising settlements. The soil generally good, well watered, and timber of various descriptions.
These lands within fifteen miles of Main Licking and Kentucky rivers, both navigable two or three hundred miles above the extremity of the lands.
ALSO,
To be sold at the same time and place as the above, another TRACT of LAND of nine thousand acres, in one or more lots, in the county of Fayette, state of Kentucky, nearly the same distance from Lexington, Frankfort and the Ohio river, as the foregoing tract, and lays between the former and Main Licking river, distant only a few miles from the latter.
The soil is in general good, well watered and timber of different kinds, and as the former tract, in the neighborhood of the settled parts of Kentucky, and opposite a Jersey settlement.
The Grants by Edmund Randolph, esq. in 1787 and 1788, and the title deeds are clear and indisputable.

VALUABLE MEDICINES, AT REDUCED PRICES.
THE public are respectfully informed, that the PATENT MEDICINES hitherto in the hands of Messrs. MACBEAN & POYZER, will in future be sold by Dr. SAMUEL BROWN only, in Lexington, Messrs. M. & P. having relinquished the agency in his favor. A fresh supply of the following are received from LEE & Co. Baltimore.
DR. HAMILTON'S ELIXIR.
A sovereign remedy for Colds, obstinate Coughs, Asthmas, sore Throats and approaching Consumption.—Price 1 Dollar.
To Parents who have Children afflicted with the HOOPING COUGH,
This discovery is of the first magnitude, as it affords immediate relief, checks the progress, and in a short time entirely removes the most cruel disorder to which children are liable. The Elixir is so perfectly agreeable, and the dose so small that no difficulty arises in taking it.
HAMILTON'S WORM-DESTROYING LOZENGES.
Which have within four years past, cured upwards of one hundred and twenty thousand persons, of both sexes, of every age, and in every situation, of various dangerous complaints arising from worms, and from obstructions or roughness in the stomach and bowels.
The above valuable Medicine is sold in boxes containing forty Lozenges, at one Dollar per box.
DR. HAMILTON'S GENUINE ESSENCE & EXTRACT OF MUSTARD,
A safe and effectual remedy for Acute and chronic Rheumatism, Gout, Rheumatic Gout, Palsy, Lumbago, Numbness, White swellings, Chilblains, Sprains, Bruises, Pain in the face and neck, &c.
THIS valuable remedy is prepared both in a fluid state and in pills, and thus excellently adapted both for external and internal use.
The pills operate mildly by urine, and by insensible perspiration, expelling the superfluous and morbid humors: they are highly cordial to the stomach, create appetite, assist digestion, remove flying pains, and cold or windy complaints in the stomach and bowels.
The essence is a wonderful assistant to the pills in rheumatism, gout, lumbago and palsy, and by its peculiar penetrating and dispersing quality, removes the most violent pains, bruises, numbness, stiffness of the neck, joints, &c. swelled faces, head ache, indurated breasts, white swellings, frozen limbs, &c. and will infallibly prevent the ill effects of wet or damp in the feet.
Some may be surprised that this medicine should be prescribed with equal success in such a variety of cases, but this surprise will cease when it is recollected that all those complaints result from the same cause—a slowness in the lymph or obstructions in the lymphatic vessels.
Price, 1 Dollar.
DR. HAHN'S GENUINE EYE WATER.
A sovereign remedy for all diseases of the eyes, whether the effect of natural weakness or of accident.—1 Dollar.
TOOTH-ACHE DROPS.

The operation of these Pills is perfectly mild, so as to be used with safety by persons in every situation, and of every age.
They are excellently adapted to carry off superfluous bile and prevent its morbid secretions—to restore and amend the appetite to pro-
cure a free perspiration, and thereby prevent colds which are often attended with fatal consequences—a dose never fails to remove a cold, if taken on its first appearance. They are celebrated for removing habitual costiveness—sickness at the stomach, and severe head ache—and ought to be taken by all persons on a change of climate.—1 Dollar.
OBSERVE, that independent of the above Medicines, being celebrated for their efficacy throughout the United States—they are actually cheaper in general and sold at lower prices, than most individuals must pay for the drugs of which they are composed, purchased at retail prices—being prepared on a large scale and in immense quantities, and sold here, without any advance on the Baltimore prices.

[BY REQUEST.]
AN ADDRESS
To the Students and Faculty of the College of New-Jersey, delivered May 6, 1802, the day on which the Students commenced their studies, after the burning of the college edifice; by the Rev. Dr. Green, of Philadelphia, one of the Trustees, appointed by the board for the purpose.
(Concluded.)
The statement now given may serve to shew, that to allow sceptical and irreligious sentiments to be maintained and propagated in this college would be an unjust, & even sacrilegious perversion both of the design and property of its founders. The property and trust that we hold were bestowed to promote christian piety, and therefore as honest men we cannot permit it to be opposed or trifled with. We are not, indeed, going to turn inquisitors, and to search your minds, or require you to avow your secret sentiments. But if any student voluntarily avows opinions hostile to revelation he must leave this institution. No christian parent would or ought to permit such a person to remain in his family. It cannot consist with the confidence reposed in us, to give opportunity to such an individual to corrupt the minds of those youth whose christian parents, relying on our fidelity in this point, have committed them to our care, and who would esteem the death of their children a blessing in comparison with their becoming infidels.
But while we thus absolutely proscribe all infidel and irreligious books, conversation, and discourse, we do not impose on any of you a particular religious creed. We are ourselves of different christian denominations, and you are at liberty to belong to any that you or your parents chuse, while you conform to the laws of the institution.
From the view that has been taken, two particulars result, which may serve to epitomize in your minds what you are to expect in the discipline and government of this college.
I. Offences against GOD, or direct violations of the divine or moral laws, will ever be considered and treated as the most aggravated of all. To these the least allowance will be made; the least indulgence or tolerance will be shewn. We should, in any circumstance, be utterly unworthy to fulfil the character of guardians and teachers of youth, if we did not lay this down as a principle; but in our circumstances, if we should fail to do it, we should, as you have seen, literally betray our trust.
II. The very next grade of offences is constituted by any disrespect, disregard or disobedience, shewn to the authority of the college. This strikes at the very root of that domestic or family government by which, as you have heard, the institution is regulated. Neither order, comfort, nor improvement can exist in a family where the heads of it are treated with disrespect. Insubordination is immediately followed by every other evil. At every risk, therefore, this must be prevented: and accordingly you will here find it repressed in the most exemplary manner.
Fix these two points then in your memory, and keep them constantly in view; and if you fear GOD and reverence and obey your teachers, every other duty will follow of course.
Before I conclude, it is proper to remark, that during the ensuing summer you will, by boarding in the town, be removed from that constant inspection of the officers of the seminary to which you were accustomed when you lived in the college edifice. By this circumstance you will find yourselves more at liberty to pursue your own inclinations than heretofore. We trust and hope, however that you will consider this very circumstance as putting you on your honor, and that you will let it be seen that you are most careful to restrain yourselves when others cannot restrain you; that you scorn to offend when the misfortunes of the institution have put it in your power. How much more noble will be the ambition, and how much more useful to yourselves, to endeavor to aid and give pleasure to your teachers, and to contribute to the reputation of the place of your education, than to be emulous of thwarting every design, and violating every rule that is instituted for your own benefit. Believe it, the workers of mischief are commonly blockheads, as well as profligates. What genius does it require to play tricks and do mischief? A monkey, after all, is the successful rival of every genius of this description. Love order then, as indicative both of mental energy and improvement, and of moral dispositions and attainments. Love order, regularity, and industry, as essentially necessary to your progress in science, and to your comfort, usefulness, and respectability in the world. Love and practise them yourselves; countenance and encourage them in one another.
Finally, young gentlemen, be reminded, that if you are studious, virtuous, and pious, you will be happy in your present situation; you will qualify yourselves for honorable distinction in future life; you will be the comfort of your parents and friends, you will be the ornament and boast of the place of your education; you will be the country's best treasure; you will be pillars in the church of the living GOD; and you will possess at last a crown of eternal glory.—How intolerable is the thought of losing all this, and subjecting yourselves to a reverse infinitely fearful! Therefore be pious; be studious; be orderly; be industrious.
All who are disposed are now to come forward and take and subscribe their obligations to obey the laws of the institution.
The questions proposed, and the answers received from each student, were the following—
Q. Have you read and understood these laws?
A. I have.
Q. Do you most solemnly pledge your truth and honor to obey them?
A. I do.
These questions were proposed by the Governor of the State, acting as president of the corporation, and there was not a student who did not voluntarily and readily return the answers required, and afterwards subscribe his name to a copy of the laws.
The faculty of the college was then addressed as follows—
Gentlemen of the Faculty, By the order, & in the name of the trustees, I am now to address a few words to you. We have placed in your hands a most sacred trust, we have committed these youth to your care, and their present and future well being may, under GOD, very much depend on your fidelity to them. We expect that you will be faithful. We expect that your abilities will be exerted to the very utmost in their instruction and government. We solemnly charge you to let this be realized. We deliver to you, this day, a band of youth, who have voluntarily promised to obey the laws of the institution. You have heard us tell them that these laws must be obeyed. We now tell you that you must execute them. We pledge ourselves to bear you out in it, at every risk; and doing this, we tell you explicitly, that we will require it at your hands. We respect your characters, your office, and your talents. But we know that all good men are willing and desirous to be reminded of their duty frequently and plainly, and therefore we thus speak. Good men are willing to be laid under the most sacred bonds to discharge their duty. You know that you are under such bonds. Not only are they imposed by the very nature of your business, as instructors of youth, but they are strengthened by the solemnities of an official oath—You have sworn to be faithful—And brethren, we have confidence in you that you will be faithful to your trust—We pray GOD to support and bless you in it. May he give you the unspeakable pleasure to see his work prosper in your hands. May he render you instrumental in fitting many eminently to serve him and their generation in this world, and at last may you, with them, shine forth as stars of distinguished lustre in the kingdom of our Heavenly Father.
After this, the transaction was closed with prayer, and a benediction.
WHEREAS
A considerable number of balances are due to my Son, ever since he lived in Lexington, and practised physic in partnership with Doctor Ridgely; all the accounts of which, have a long time been put into the hands of Mr. Jacob E. Lehre for collection; and that it appears, he has been able to make but little progress therein: I therefore now give notice, that I shall as attorney for my Son, order suits against every individual in one month from this date, who may then not have settled his account, with Mr. Lehre.—I wish this measure avoided, and beg all those in arrears to him, to call on Mr. Lehre to pay him, or give their obligations, for I shall not recede from this declaration.

IMPORTANT.
Extract of a letter from New-Orleans, to a respectable, mercantile house in this town, dated October 19.
"Yesterday between the hours of two and three, in the afternoon, this port was shut against Americans, by order of the intendant; and what is more astonishing and truly lamentable is, that in the same order, the deposit of our goods and produce, cease from the date of the order. Enclosed I send you a copy of the order, carefully translated into English from the Spanish—I beg that you will give it immediate publicity, that our countrymen may not act in the dark. I dare not comment on the subject—It has produced a general fermentation; and the peace, happiness and tranquillity of all are greatly disturbed. 'Tis considered here as a declaration of WAR, and the citizens here look forward to desperate consequences."
Another, same date.
"'Tis not pretended that the intendant had any orders from court for this most unexpected determination [the not allowing Americans the privilege of depositing their goods at Orleans]—We are told that the minister expressed some surprise at observing the deposit still continued in the city of Orleans, after the expiration of the three years, expecting certainly some other equivalent place to be appropriated, for the depot on the Mississippi. Every officer of government, and every individual in the colony, we believe differs in opinion with the intendant except his counsellor (assessor) and all dread the consequences. The governor had threatened to oppose the resolution of the intendant, but has done nothing. It must now rest with our government. The French troops are daily expected here to take possession of the colony."
We published the following in a Gazette Extra, on Saturday; but as it had only a partial circulation, we insert it again.
We were this morning favored with a hand-bill printed at Natchez October 28th, containing the following information, which we hasten to lay before our readers.
Extract of a letter from a gentleman in New-Orleans to his friend in this place, dated October 19, 1802.
"Yesterday the Intendant issued orders, not only for shutting the port of New-Orleans against American vessels coming with cargoes to sell, which was expected; but even totally to prevent the deposit—a step that must produce infinite embarrassment, as well as much loss to many of the citizens of the United States. Two boats that arrived from above yesterday, with flour, were not allowed to land it, consequently cotton, &c. coming from Natchez will be in the same predicament."
PROCLAMATION of the Intendant.
As long as it was necessary to tolerate the trade of neutrals which is now abolished, it would have been prejudicial to this colony, that the Intendant complying with his duty should have prevented the deposit in this city of the property of Americans as granted to them by the 22 article of the Treaty of Friendship, Limits and Navigation of the 27th October, 1795, at the expiration of the three years prefixed; but now that with the publication of the treaty of Amiens, and the re-establishment of the communication between the English and Spanish subjects, that inconvenience has ceased, considering that the 22d article of the said treaty prevents my continuing this toleration, which necessity required after the fulfillment of the stipulated time this ministry can no longer consent to it without an express order of the King's. Therefore without prejudice to the exportation of what has been admitted in proper time, I order that from this date shall cease the privilege which the Americans had of bringing and depositing their goods in this capitol. And that the foregoing may be publicly known, and that nobody may plead ignorance, I order it to be published in the accustomed places copies to be posted up in public; and that the necessary notice to be given of it to the Departments of Finance, Royal Custom-house, and others that may be thought proper.
Done at the Intendancy, signed with my hand, and counter-signed by the Notary Public of Finance, at New-Orleans, 16th October 1802. Signed,
JUAN VENTURA MORALES. By order of the Intendant, PETER PEDESCLAUX.
We here publish the article of the Treaty between the United States and his Catholic Majesty, referred to above.
Art. 22. The two high contracting parties, hoping that the good correspondence and
friendship which happily reigns between them, will be further encreased by this treaty, and that it will contribute to augment their prosperity and opulence, will in future give to their mutual commerce all the extension and favor which the advantages of both countries may require.
And in consequence of the stipulations contained in the fourth article, his Catholic Majesty will permit the citizens of the United States for the space of three years from this time to deposit their merchandizes and effects in the port of New-Orleans, and to export them from thence without paying any other duty than a fair price for the hire of the stores, and his majesty promises either to continue this permission, if he find it not prejudicial to the interests of Spain, or if he should not agree to continue it there, he will assign on another part of the banks of the Mississippi an equivalent establishment.
The legislature have passed the following laws.
An act to amend the act entitled "an act for altering the time of holding courts in this commonwealth," so far as respects the county of Franklin.
An act to amend the act entitled "an act to vest certain lands in trustees for the purpose of an academy, in the county of Franklin."
In the house of representatives, Saturday, November 20,
On motion of Mr. Lancaster, the house took up the amendments of the committee of the whole to the bill dividing this state into congressional districts, reported on yesterday; and the first amendment being read in the following words, viz—"In the 1st section, line the 2d, strike out the word "six," and insert in lieu thereof the words "two, one district to be composed of the counties on the south side of the Kentucky river; and the other district to be composed of the counties on the north side of the said river, including the counties of Franklin and Gallatin, and that three members be elected in each district."
Mr. Lancaster, moved that the following should be adopted in lieu of the said amendment, viz—"This state shall be, and is hereby divided into six congressional districts; the first district to consist of the counties of Livingston, Christian, Logan, Warren, Barren, Muhlenburg, Ohio, Adair, Cumberland, Pulaski and Wayne:—The second district to consist of the counties of Madison, Garrard, Lincoln, Mercer and Knox:—the third district to consist of the counties of Green, Washington, Nelson, Hardin, Breckinridge, Bullitt and Jefferson:—the fourth district to consist of the counties of Shelby, Henry, Gallatin, Franklin, Scott, Harrison, Campbell, Pendleton and Bracken:—the fifth district to consist of the counties of Woodford, Fayette, Jessamine, Clarke and Montgomery:—and the sixth district to consist of the counties of Bourbon, Nicholas, Mason, Fleming and Floyd."
And the said motion being seconded, and the question put for agreeing to the said amendment, it passed in the affirmative.
The yeas and nays being required by Messrs. Lancaster and Grundy, were taken, and are as follows:
Yeas—Messrs. Anderson, Beauchamp, Cox, Crawford, Davage, Dougherty, Delha, Donaldson, Y. Ewing, B. Ewing, Finley, Guthrie, Grundy, Hubbard, Johnson, Kercheval, Lyon, Lancaster, M'Kee, M'Reynolds, Miller, Porter, Pickett, Price, Ray, Shepherd and Stockton.—27.

The bill as amended passed the house of representatives on Friday the 26th inst.
Mr. Thomas Paine has gone to the City of Washington, from whence he has published, "Letter I, to the people of the United States." The concluding part of the letter follows:
"As this letter is intended to announce my arrival to my friends, and to my enemies, if I have any, for I ought to have none in America, and as introductory to others that will occasionally follow, I shall close it by declaring the line of conduct I shall pursue."
"I have no occasion to ask, and do not intend to accept, any place or office in the government. There is none it could give me that would be any ways equal to the profits I could make as an author, for I have an established fame in the literary world, could I reconcile it to my principles to make money by politics or religion. I must be in every thing what I have been, a disinterested volunteer. My proper sphere of action is on the common floor of citizenship, & to honest men I give my hand and my heart freely."
"I have some manuscript works to publish, of which I shall give proper notice; and some Mechanical affairs to bring forward that will employ all my leisure time. I shall continue these letters as I see occasion, and as to the low party prints that chuse to abuse me they are welcome. I shall not descend to answer them. I have been too much accustomed to such common stuff to take any notice of it. The government of England honoured me with a thousand martyrdoms by burning me in effigy in every town in that country, & their hirelings in America may do the same."

By an Organizing Senatus Consultum, the departments of the Po, la Doria, Marengo, Sezia, la Stura, & Tenaro, have been formerly declared united to the French republic, and the number of deputies fixed which each are to send to the legislative body. Turin is declared one of the cities of the republic. The King of Sardinia is thus cut off from all hope of being re-established in his dominions; nor has any thing, even in the name of an indemnity, been provided for him. How hard his lot! after exhausting his strength in defence of Religion, Order and Good Government! The reformer of religion finds it advisable not to restore the Monarch. Turin may be considered as one of the keys of Italy, and, by the present arrangements, the people of that country, under the mock name of independence, are rendered mere vassals to France.
September 24.
We yesterday received the Paris Journals of the 20th instant. They inform us, that the affairs of the indemnities seems to be definitively concluded, unless the emperor should endeavor by force of arms to procure more favorable terms; a resolution which the constant reinforcement of his army would seem to indicate.
BERNE, September 13.
The French ministers received yesterday a courier from Paris. Nothing has yet transpired of the dispatches brought by him; but they cannot be otherwise than interesting to our country. A great event is preparing, which it is said will take place to-morrow. During the two last days very active and multiplied conferences were held at the landamman Dolder's. We are assured, that it is in contemplation to appoint a Dictator or Grand Conciliator: and that citizen Dolder is designated for that extraordinary magistracy.
September 14.
An event little expected occupies the public attention, and gives rise to a thousand conjectures. Citizen Dolder, landamman, has been carried off this morning from his house, and under the eye of his guards, after having been obliged to resign his office.
The cantons of Argovie and Baden are in a complete state of insurrection. All the peasants have risen en masse, and have made themselves masters of Brugg and Leuzberg: and last evening, when the courier left Arau, that city was threatened with invasion. The peasants afterwards proposed to direct their march against the castle of Arbourg, to liberate a man named May de Schoffland, who is detained there.
The latest public accounts from Zurich are not of a tranquil complexion. General Audermatt, had taken a very advantageous position near the city, and was making dispositions to fire upon it with red hot balls, should it refuse to surrender. Letters of a more recent date say that he has executed his project, and that several parts of the city were on fire.
The members of the senate sent to citizen Dolder are returned, and are at this moment making their report to the senate. It is not at present foreseen what turn our affairs will take.
September 16.
Citizen Dolder, landamman, Rutteman and Fessy, stadthalters, who had given in their resignation on the 14th and 15th, have returned to the resumption of their functions, in consequence of an invitation from the senate.
The war office has this morning received accounts of the capitulation of Zurich.
A courier arrived last evening from headquarters, has brought dispatches announcing that a column of about 2000 peasants of the canton of Zurich had joined the Helvetic army; and that a reinforcement of about 400 men, in two bodies, destined for the city, have been defeated by our troops of the line and militia, and especially by our horse chasseurs, who have dispersed the insurgents, killed many, and made forty prisoners.
NEW-YORK, November 8.
An article from Leghorn mentions that the American squadron which blockaded Tripoli, having attempted alanding with two thousand men, were completely defeated. We totally distrust this report, as the whole of the crews of the squadron most probably did not exceed that number. A small force landing for provisions was probably harassed or surrounded, and to no further extent is the rumor to be credited.

SACRED TO THE MUSES.
[ORIGINAL.]
Lines written some years since, in the Pick- et-Book of a Young Lady, by a Gentleman who was on the eve of an expected depar- ture for England.
WHEN cheerless, pensive, I dejected roam, Far from my lovely friend and native home, I'll think on thee, whom fad, I've left behind, And sigh each moment to the summer wind.
When storms arise and thund'ring billows roar, And liquid mountains beat the far off shore, The busy gales that pass unheeded by, Shall waft thee oft, the tribute of a sigh.
Shou'd the wild sea-winds bear thy lover o'er, From sea-girt Albion to his native shore, He'll seek thy vale, & leave his love no more.
O take this parting promise ere I go, Nor let my Helen grieve in need less woe.
ANECDOOTE.
The liberties some news-papers take with the lives and deaths of great men are truly shocking. The Irish Giant has been under the necessity of contradicting the report of his death by affidavit, in which he swears that he is not only now alive, but was so at the time he was said to be dead!
