PROPOSALS, For publishing by subscription,
AN ABRIDGEMENT OF THE LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES, OR,
A complete Digest of all such Acts of Congress, as concern the United States at large.
By WM. GRAYDON, Esq.
CONDITIONS.
I. This work shall commence with the laws passed at the first session of Congress, held after the adoption of the Federal Constitution, and end with those that may be enacted at the present session.
II. The whole will be comprised in one large octavo volume, of at least six hundred pages, and perhaps considerably more: it being impossible, till after the present session of Congress, to pronounce with accuracy.
III. It shall be printed on good paper, and type, and well bound, at FOUR DOLLARS. No money will be required till the work is completed, of which notice will be given—N.B. It is at present in considerable forwardness.
IV. The Constitution of the United States shall be prefixed, and an Appendix added, containing all existing Treaties, the Declaration of Independence, the Articles of Confederation, the Rules and Articles for the government of the Army, and the Ordinance for the government of the Territory North West of the Ohio.
V. Lists shall be given of the titles of all the laws under the several heads of "Abridged" "Repealed" "Expired or Obsolete," and "Private or Local." Likewise, Tables of the rates of Duties, Post-Roads, and times of holding Courts throughout the United States.
The convenience of ONE book instead of SIX, the difference of the price (being only one third the rate of other editions,) and the superior advantage of having all the laws upon each particular subject, classed together, and brought into one view, must appear striking and important; particularly as this work will be more within the reach of every one, and will comprize whatever his duty or interest requires him to know of the "supreme law of the land."

VALUABLE MEDICINES, AT REDUCED PRICES.
THE public are respectfully informed, that the PATENT MEDICINES hitherto in the hands of messrs. MACLEAN & PYZER, 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 touhness in the stomach and bowels.
The above valuable Medicine is sold in boxes containing sixty Lozenges, at one Dollar per box.
DR. HAMILTON'S GENUINE ESSENCE & EXTRACT OF MUS-TARD,
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 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 sprains, bruises, numbness, stiffness of the neck, joints, &c. Swelled Fingers, head ache, induced to eat, 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.

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 aches—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.

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.
YOUNG GENTLEMEN,
It is by the appointment of the trustees of this institution, and as their organ, that I now address you. You are therefore to consider what I deliver, not merely as the opinion of an individual, but as the collective sentiments of the guardians of the college, as clothed with their authority, and dictated by their solemn and paternal concern for your welfare.
The most of you have been witnesses of the mournful event which has threatened the very existence of this seminary. It has required the exercise of all our skill, industry, and influence, to obtain the promising prospect which we now possess of re-establishing the college; of raising its buildings from their ashes, renewing its instructions, and restoring it to its former respectability. In the execution of an undertaking so arduous, we found it necessary to pledge ourselves in the most serious and unequivocal manner to the public, that we would make this institution an asylum of sound principles, both in religion and learning. This engagement we are determined, under favor of divine Providence, sacredly to fulfil. We are now met to fulfil it. We have called you here at this time to inform you of our purpose, and to enter on its execution. From this hour a new era commences in the government and discipline of this institution. Perhaps I should rather say, that from this hour the old and original system is restored. To effect this, we have revised, amended, and added to, the laws of the college. We have put them into your hands, and allowed you time for a careful inspection, and consideration of them: And we shall presently call upon you individually to pledge your truth and honor to obey them.
In this concern, young gentlemen, we intrust you to act heedfully and conscientiously. We wish that no one may promise obedience who does not intend to yield it. We offer you a fair alternative. If you now refuse, you are free to leave us, and you shall depart without censure. But after you have promised obedience, be assured it will be exacted, and you must render it scrupulously. Not an individual will violate order hereafter with impunity. No combinations that you will be able to form will alter our resolution in this respect. The resolution has been deliberately formed, and it is immovably fixed. We have agreed and are ready to dismiss the whole college rather than to suffer the least infringement or contempt of its authority. Our duty calls us to this; our interest is perfectly compatible with our duty. If, for disorderly behaviour, we should dismiss the whole of the students at any time collected, it would be so high a recommendation of the institution to all virtuous minds, that in a few months we should have it filled again with the best youth in the United States. The friends of piety & of rational education throughout our country are, at this time looking round them with more than ordinary anxiety, & asking where they may send their children with safety and advantage: Where they may send them with a reasonable expectation that their religious principles will be guarded, their morals carefully inspected, the habits of order, industry, & due submission to superiors formed and established, while science shall enlighten their minds, and exertion invigorate their faculties. We mean to say to them with truth, You may send them here. If we can accomplish this, we shall never want pupils.
From the prevalence of loose sentiments in regard to morals and religion in various parts of this country, connected with that dissipation of mind and dissoluteness of manners with that neglect of family government and instruction, which always proceed from bad principles, and which constantly encrease and strengthen them, it has unhappily come to pass, that many of the youth who have been placed here, for some years past, have been corrupted from the beginning, have rendered the government of the institution unusually difficult, and have gradually, but yet greatly in the issue, warped it from its original design and destination. By the destruction of the college a warning voice has admonished us to put a stop to the growing defection, to purge the seminary of the dross which it now contains, and to provide effectually for its future purity. To this admonition whatever be the consequences, we must be obedient.
We cannot believe that the laws we have formed are too vigorous: And therefore if you think them so we must consider it as an evidence that your minds and habits are already corrupted and perverted and need such laws to correct and regulate them. We are sensible, indeed, that many of those laws would be superfluous, if every student would voluntarily govern himself by the dictates of reason and virtue. But we also believe, that if every student would so govern himself, he would act very much in the manner that those laws enjoin. The laws therefore, will not prove irksome to any student who is reasonable and virtuous, and those who are disposed to be otherwise ought to feel coercion. It is our intention that they should feel it. All equitable laws are formed, not for the good & obedient, but for transgressors. We could
earnestly wish not to admit into this institution, any who are disposed to vicious practices, and by requiring a subscription of the conditions of admission, we do all in our power to prevent their entrance. But all experience demonstrates that however desirable, it is utterly impracticable, wholly to preclude vicious and disorderly individuals from any society. To restrain these, therefore, to reform them if possible, and if failing to reform them, to make them examples for the benefit of others, and to prevent their injuring and contaminating the whole community, these are the leading purposes for which all laws are enacted. Some restraints, indeed, must commonly be laid on the worthy members of a society, which would not be necessary if all were worthy. But to these every considerate and well disposed individual will cheerfully submit for the general good, and as the condition on which alone he can himself receive the benefits of society.
You perceive, then, that notwithstanding the plain manner in which I have spoken, and which the occasion has rendered necessary, it will by no means follow, that your treatment here is to be rigorous, harsh and severe. Let no such impression rest upon your minds, for there is no reason why you should indulge it. The discipline to which you are to submit, is indeed to be strict and firm, but it is at the same time to be equitable, reasonable, suitable, and such as every virtuous, and sensible young man would choose for himself, if the choice were left to himself. Nothing will be required of you but what is contained in the laws which you have examined; and though these will be inflexibly executed, they will be administered with as much mildness and tenderness as possible. He who resolves to do his duty has nothing to fear either from the law or the officer. They will both be his friends and promote his happiness.
But to explain to you our views a little more particularly, and in such manner as that they may remain on your minds, you will observe, that the government and management of this institution is domestic and moral . You are to consider the college in the light of a large family, of which each of you is a son, and all concerned in its government and instruction are parents, guardians and teachers. We inform your natural parents and guardians, by our laws and regulations which are printed and public, what is the system of management and education which we pursue in this large family, of which they propose to enter you as members. If they choose that you should have a standing here, they give you up to us. They transfer to us the whole of their prerogatives, to be possessed and used for your benefit, and with the expectation that we will carefully sustain to you the relation of parents and exercise towards you that discipline, and that only, which is suitable for children. They have indeed the power and right to take you from us, at any moment they please; but as long as they continue you here, they vest in us all their authority. Our system of government may vary from some of their ideas of propriety: but still they consent to that system, and must abide by it fully, while they keep you here. In forming a system of government we have certainly been at considerable pains, and have felt much solicitude to make it as unexceptionable as possible; and if we profess and are expected to act towards you the parts of parents, we must be the most unfeeling men, if we do not allow you every indulgence consistent with your good and the good of the seminary. At the same time, remember that we shall be the weakest or wickedest of men, if we grant you such indulgencies as are plainly and entirely inconsistent with your own interests and those of the institution. We are not through any pious and short sighted tenderness, or any unmanly timidity, to bend to your humors and caprices, much less to overlook your vices in such a manner as would bring on you, and on all connection with you, the most lasting mischiefs. As often as parents do this, and they too often do it; they most cruelly and lastingly abuse their children. We will then keep in mind that you are young, and in that youth and experience demand tenderness, patience, & forbearance. But we will not suffer you to ruin yourselves by vice, nor waste your time in idleness, nor to contract habits of extravagance, disorder, disobedience, or resistance to lawful authority, while you are under our care. This would be to make the college a scourge and curse to society, instead of a blessing; and it would fill up for ourselves an awful account both to God and man.
Farther—While you view the college as a large family, it will also be of use to you, to keep constantly in recollection the great design with which it was formed. This design was somewhat peculiar, and I beg your attention while I state it distinctly. Perhaps no institution was ever more sincerely founded in the fear of GOD, more truly consecrated to his service and glory, or more fervently commended to his blessing and protection, than this of which you are members. Its pious founders had for their main object the promotion of science in union with evangelical piety. The importance of this union to society they justly thought to be inconceivably great, and they erected this college to cherish and ensure it. Science without piety is one of the most dangerous talents to its possessor, and one of the most hazardous to the interest of the community. The mischiefs that it may do, and that it has actually done, are incalculable. On the other hand, religion without knowledge is unable to defend itself against its enemies, is apt to run into enthusiasm, fanaticism, superstition, bi-
gotry and persecution, and thus to produce evils both numerous and extensive, and in the end to dishonor and injure the cause which it sought to promote. But science and religion united, form a respectable and happy individual, who is also the ornament and blessing of society. And when speaking of religion I would remind you that I mean the Christian religion. As yet we have never been requested to educate a Turk or a Jew. If the request should ever be made, I would give my vote that he should possess a complete toleration, as far as this could consist with the duties and exercises of the college. But notwithstanding all the talk that you may have heard about the religion of Nature , be assured it is only talk , and that in practice there is no such religion. I would, therefore, proscribe infidels, not because their religion is erroneous, but because they have none , and because they are hostile to every thing that deserves the name. They may be governed in a degree by social principles, and for a while may feel something of the force of moral obligation. But shew us their temples—Shew us the individuals "whose temples are their own breasts," as they are fond of expressing it. Shew us the men among those who are called deists, who, you really believe, do habitually and sincerely worship, love and serve the living GOD. You cannot shew them; and I conscientiously deliver it as my opinion that they do not exist—I mean under the light of revelation. With us the man who is not a Christian has no religion.
Remember, therefore, that to teach you to be Christians is one object of your education here. This is a sacred point which we must regard: and Oh! if we can engage you to regard it as you ought, our labors will receive their best reward, and your gain will be immense. If you shall here learn effectually "to know the only true GOD, and Jesus Christ whom he hath sent," you will make an acquisition truly inestimable. It will be the acquisition of "eternal life." It will prepare you for the greatest happiness and usefulness in this world, and for endless and inconceivable felicity in the world to come. We do, therefore, most earnestly entreat, that not one of you may ever lose sight of this infinitely important concern. Whatever is to be your future character or employment in life this is the great and essential preparation for all.
It would coincide precisely with the original design of the seminary, if many of you had in prospect the sacred office of the gospel ministry. To all such it is admitted at once that true piety is an indispensable qualification. But beware of supposing that it is necessary only to the sacred office. It is "the one thing needful to you all without exception. Except a man be born again he cannot see the kingdom of GOD." And small, small indeed will be the consolation at the close of life, to go to the place of torment as lawyers, physicians, politicians or merchants, and not as ministers of the gospel. Lay to heart, therefore, seasonably and seriously, the things that belong to your future peace; and never be satisfied with your situation, till you have good evidence that you are renewed in the temper of your minds and vitally united to Jesus Christ.

Lexington, 6th Nov.
Mr. Printer,
It is beneficial to mankind, to know how to alleviate distress: wherefore I think you will readily insert in your paper the following notice.—It is not important for your readers to know that I was cured of a cancer in one minute; but it is important for those who are afflicted with that dreadful disorder which has baffled to this day the skill of all the physicians of Europe, to know the man who possesses the astonishing specific, which has procured me such speedy cure, with very moderate pains, and with still more moderate cost, since he was satisfied with one dollar for his trouble; though he appears to be a man in poor circumstances. He did not request me to publish his name, but motives of humanity engage me to do it.—He goes by the name of Dr. WRIGHT, and lives south of the Rolling Fork, on Knob Lick creek, about 18 miles from Bairdstown.
I am respectfully,
Sir,
Your most obedient
Humble servant,
STEPHEN THEODORE BADIN.
The Printer of the Kentucky Gazette.
BONAPARTE and MOREAU.
Bonaparte and Moreau are the two military colossi of the day. Such is the transcendence of their achievements and the splendor of their names, that they admit not of a comparison with any other living characters. Even Charles of Austria, though a distinguished general, bears but a secondary rank in the state of greatness.
It is doubted by some which of the two heroes of France should be esteemed pre-eminent in military accomplishments. Perhaps the following remarks, founded on a recollection of the conduct of these generals in the field, may shed some light on this controverted point:
Moreau is consummate in conducting a retreat, Bonaparte in never suffering such a movement to become necessary. To a chief who fights only to conquer, and never fails in the plan of a campaign, the science of retreat would be useless and cumbersome. Moreau is unequalled in the art of extricating an army from difficulty and danger, Bonaparte in that of never allowing his army to fall into either. Moreau can seize on opportunities as they offer, and is calculated to sustain the most obstinate conflict. Bonaparte is capable of creating opportunities and conducts his attack with such impetuosity, that victory generally declares for him before oblinacy can be displayed on the part of the enemy. Moreau qualified to receive an attack with invincible firmness, and repel it with equal courage, possesses a happy and splendid assemblage of talents for defending his country against invading armies, but looking down on the mere business of defence it belongs to Bonaparte alone to conquer Italy and Egypt, and bring even the empire of Germany to his feet. In battle Moreau resembles the cliff that receives, unhaken, the fury of the tempest, but Bonaparte, the impetuous thunder cloud, whose lightning nothing terrestrial can withstand. Moreau is, indeed a great general, and a perfect epitome of the art of war;
but Bonaparte, the child of genius, the pupil of fortune—Bonaparte, superior to the discipline of military schools, is formed by Nature for a CONQUEROR.
NEW-YORK, November 3.
One of the most alarming FIRES that ever happened in this city, within our recollection, broke out last evening, between 8 and 9 o'clock, in a stable in Bride-street, between Whitehall and Broad-streets, almost surrounded with wooden buildings. The wind blowing fresh from the south-west, the devouring element made its way through Bride-street into Stone-street with uncontrollable fury; and in less than an hour and a half the whole block, consisting of about 50 buildings, mostly dwelling-houses, were either burnt, pulled down, or gutted. Pieces of shingles in a light blaze, were carried in every direction by the wind, frequently lodging on the roofs of houses at the distance of half a mile from the scene of conflagration, and threatened destruction to a great part of the city.
We are unable at present to state either the origin of the fire, or the extent of the injury individually or collectively sustained, as the flames were not entirely got under when this paper was put to press.
Amongst the sufferers, a list of whom we were not able to procure last evening, were Mr. Carroll, Col. Boyd, Mr. Peter Mesier, Mr. James Cheetham, Mr. Rynier Suyden, and Mr. Gamewey, a baker, whose situation is peculiarly distressing, having a wife and ten small children, one of them at the breast, and having lost all his property, the earnings of his whole life. The uncommon distress to which himself and family are reduced will, we trust, awaken the benevolence of our fellow-citizens.
We continue to receive very distressing accounts of the situation of St. Domingo. The following particulars are communicated to us by a respectable merchant of this city, who received them per the brig Hannah, in a letter from his correspondent at Port Republicain, dated 29th September.
"Such is our present situation (which certainly cannot last long) that the consumption of Merchandise is confined within the boundaries of the city, the outside being entirely in a state of insurrection. For self-preservation we are compelled to perform very hard service, and are now employed in doing the severest duties of a soldier, at the same time that we are crushed with imposts. The taxation of the last contribution was secret, and is not to be known until the collection is enforced at the point of the bayonet."
"The National Guard has just began the campaign. The insurgents appear daily at our posts, and the neighboring places are attacked with unparalleled fury. We are in want of troops, and a great number of them, otherwise the colony will once more become a desert; for many people, fearing the prolongation of this disastrous war, are making preparations for quitting it."
Accounts by late vessels say, that after many actions of various consequences, the blacks had about the beginning of October, drove the whole of the army, both horse and foot, that was encamped on the plain between Cape Francois and the hills, into the town; and had so far shown their superiority, that Gen. Le Clerc had ordered all the inhabitants of the Cape to embody themselves to support the army when called upon; and it is added, that had not the small reinforcement of troops they received in September, arrived at that critical juncture, they must have fled to their shipping, or been cut off. In short, the French are in the utmost want of both men and money to support them in their forlorn hope.
The accounts published in our last say, that the Cape is not the only place in danger; but in all probability, Port de Paix and Jeremie are ere this cut off. We may therefore expect all our accounts from that devoted island, for some time to come, will be interesting to humanity.
We are told that in the action about the middle of September near the town, the French lost a general officer, and a great number of their whites who were killed—and that a brigade of the blacks went over and joined their brethren.
November 5.
The United States frigate Constellation, captain Murray, on the 22d July last, sustained an action off Tripoli with nine gun boats, and in half an hour drove five of them ashore, and the remainder into Tripoli. No lives were lost on board the Constellation. Captain Murray was prevented from destroying the boats driven ashore, by the forts and troops of the enemy.
It is believed that Mr. Lincoln, the Attorney-General of the United States, will be the republican candidate for the Vice-Presidency at the next election.

Safely flowing down the tide, Even o'er ocean's bosom wide, Storms and tempests cease to fear, Drops of peace shall meet you there.
Then cease to flutter, foolish FEAR, Sorrow, DARKNESS, dwell not here; But LIGHT and COMFORT, drop by drop Raife the hopeful spirits up.
Then banish DISCONTENT's sad pain, PIETY ne'er hoped in vain; Drop by drop the Angel pours, PEACE, with VIRTUE, muſt be yours.
