THE Life of our blessed
Saviour JESUS CHRIST, with considerations and discourses upon the Conception, Nativity, Circumcision, Baptism, Temptation, Preaching, Miracles, Passion, Resurrection, and his Ascension into Heaven: Including several unanswerable arguments obvious to the meanest capacity, in defence of the Divinity of our Holy Redeemer, and the truth of the Christian Religion. Likewise,
The Lives, Acts, and Deaths of the holy Evangelists and Apostles, as recorded by the primitive fathers, and ancient writers of unquestionable veracity.
By J. TAYLOR, B. D.
PREFACE.
To the Reader.
THE whole duty of man is, to fear God, and keep his commandments; and the principal design of his creation is, that he may glorify God upon earth, and by the merits and intercession of Jesus Christ, may enjoy eternal happiness in the presence of God, in the world to come, wherein is fulness of joy, and at whose right hand are pleasures for evermore. To attain this everlasting inheritance, it is absolutely necessary to acquaint ourselves with God, and our blessed Saviour, and to be fully persuaded of the truth of the divinity of Jesus, and the certainty of his being the Messiah, promised to the Patriarchs and Apostles, some thousands of years before; who in the fulness of time made his appearance for the salvation of all that sincerely believe in him, and walk in obedience to his holy precepts and doctrines. This small tract is designed for the purpose aforesaid, that all true christians may know in whom they have believed. For which many undeniable arguments and considerations are advanced, which may be comprehended by the meanest understanding, and may put to silence such abandoned wretches as do deny the Lord that bought them; who being resolved to continue in a course of profaneness and irreligion, endeavour to harden their consciences, and persuade themselves that there is no God, nor future state of punishment, because they desire it may be so. I have also added the Lives of the Holy Evangelists and Apostles, with their martyrdom for preaching and publishing the good tidings of salvation to the barbarous nations, with such mighty success, that thousands were converted, and afterwards suffered death for the profession of the Gospel, and asserting the truth and certainty of the christian religion, against all its opposers; these things are written for our instruction, and may so fortify us, that it may not be in the power of those deceivers who are abroad in the world to weaken our faith and confidence in the mercy of God, and the merits of our blessed Saviour, that we shall at last attain everlasting life and happiness. J. TAYLOR. Portsmouth, Jan. 20.

AT a meeting of the directors of Piscataqua-Bridge, held on the 31st of January, an eighth assessment of fifteen dollars was voted upon each and every share, to be paid to the treasurer on or before the 20th of February inst. And at another meeting of the said directors, on the 3d inst. a ninth assessment of fifteen dollars was also voted upon each and every share, to be paid to the treasurer on or before the said 20th February inst.
Agreeable to the foregoing direction, the proprietors of Piscataqua-Bridge are hereby requested to pay the same to me, at my house in Portsmouth, on or before the 20th day of February inst.
THOMAS MARTIN, Treasurer. Portsmouth, Feb. 3, 1795.

An Act in addition to an Act, prescribing the time and mode of redeeming real estate mortgaged or conveyed by deed of bargain and sale, with defeazance. Whereas the remedy by action against the mortgagee, vendee, his heirs, executors or administrators, or those claiming under him prescribed by said act, when the condition of such mortgage deed, or deed of defeazance hath been performed, may by reason of the insolvent condition of such mortgagee, vendee, or person claiming under him, or by reason that his person or estate may not be come at, so that the same may be attached to respond the damages in such case sustained, prove ineffectual: For remedy whereof,
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives in General-Court convened, That whenever the condition of such mortgage deed, or such deed of defeazance hath been, or shall hereafter be fulfilled, or tender of the performance thereof hath been, or shall be duly made, it shall and may be lawful for the mortgager, his heirs, executors, administrators, or assigns in case of the neglect, or refusal of the mortgagee, vendee, or person claiming under him, to acknowledge satisfaction and payment of such mortgage or deed, or otherwise to make and execute a deed of quitclaim and release thereof, as prescribed in said act, to petition the Justices of the Superior-Court of Judicature, or any one of them, stating the conveying of such estate, the condition and the performance of the same, or the tender of performance thereof, whereupon the Justices of said Court, or any one of them as aforesaid, shall direct that the adverse party be served with a copy of said petition and order thereon, or that the same be left at his last and usual place of abode, fourteen days prior to the sitting of said Court, then next to be holden in said county, where such mortgaged or conveyed estate lies, or in case that the adverse party be not an inhabitant of this, or an adjoining State, then that the substance of said petition and order thereon, be published in such public newspaper, and so many times successively as the said Court or Justices shall direct; and upon proof of the fulfilment of said order, the said Court shall proceed to hear said petition, and if it shall appear that the condition of such mortgage deed, or that such deed of defeazance hath been fulfilled or performed, or that a tender thereof hath been duly made; the said Court shall adjudge and decree the performance or tender thereof as aforesaid; an attested copy whereof being recorded in the office of the registry of deeds in the county where such mortgaged or conveyed estate lies, shall have the same force, effect and validity in law, that a quitclaim and release of such mortgaged, or conveyed estate by the mortgagee, vendee, or person claiming under him, duly executed and recorded, might or could have; and whenever a tender shall be proved as aforesaid, the sum tendered shall be brought into Court and delivered to the clerk thereof, to the use of such mortgagee, vendee, or person claiming under him as aforesaid, and in case any issue in fact upon said petition shall be had, the same shall be tried by Jury, and cost may be granted, or otherwise, as the Court, all circumstances considered shall judge to be just and equitable. The foregoing act was returned by his Excellency the Governor with his objections thereto, and afterwards repassed by two thirds of both branches of the Legislature.
Passed January 16, 1795.
RESOLVED, that the operation of the several votes and resolves directing the treasurer to issue his warrants upon the grant of the first State tax, for collecting the sums advanced by the State to the several towns, in the payment of Representatives' attendance, prior to the adoption of the present constitution, be suspended so far as respects any State tax that may be granted this session.
Approved January 2, 1795.
RESOLVED, that the treasurer be directed to take effectual measures for the collection of all the money due to this State, on notes of hand, by the first day of October next; and to apply the same with the residue of the money which shall then be in the treasury, or so much thereof as may be necessary, reserving sufficient for the support of Government, to the discharge of the loan of twelve thousand pounds, negotiated in pursuance of an act or law passed last session.
Approved January 6, 1795.
RESOLVED, that the treasurer be directed to report to the House of Representatives at the next session of the General Court immediately succeeding the time when the tax voted this session shall become payable, a particular statement of the deficiencies in payment of said tax, if any; and likewise the extents that have been issued; and that it shall be considered as the duty of the treasurer to make similar reports on all future grants of taxes.
Approved January 14, 1795.

British Army in Flanders.
LONDON, Jan. 3.
The British army continues on the banks of the Waal. The French have threatened several times to pass it, but they are in want of boats for their artillery. During the late intense weather it is feared that river will freeze over, and Nature thereby furnish a bridge to farther the operations of the victorious Carmagnols. Fort St. Andre, holds out. The Governor, replied to the summons of surrender, "that he was an old soldier, who had not long to live; and as he never suffered his sword to be tarnished when young, he should not when he was just quitting the career of life." Gen. ABERCROMBIE commands the army. The Duke of York's staff have all left their commands.
DECEMBER 5. LA FAYETTE.
[The following are all the particulars we have seen in the English papers, of the escape from prison, and recapture of this adopted son of our beloved WASHINGTON.]
Letters from Berlin, inform us, that M. DE LA FAYETTE was retaken the day after his escape; but his companion, BOURNONVILLE, late Minister of War in France, has eluded the vigilance of his pursuers. These prisoners of state made their escape from the fortress of Olmutz, on the 8th ult. on two horses, without saddles. One of them took the road to the Mountains of Freudenthal, and the other arrived at Troppau on the 8th, at eleven o'clock at night, where he styled himself a Physician. The Government sent in pursuit of them.
LA FAYETTE has since been retaken not far from Olmutz, upon the Austrian territory, and re-conducted to the place of his detention. At the place where he was taken, a carriage and post horses were in readiness to conduct him out of the Austrian dominions. His fellow prisoner, who is the German Doctor BOLMAN, has been overtaken at Schweidnitz.
PRINCE OF WALES'S MARRIAGE.
On Saturday evening arrived the mail from Holland; and also Mr. Mason, with dispatches from the British army in Holland; and Mr. Fabiani, from Brunswick. The latter brings an account of the marriage, by proxy, of his royal highness the prince of Wales, and the princess Caroline of Brunswick, which took place on the 3d inst.
Lord Malmesbury was the representative of the prince on this occasion. At noon on that day, his lordship made his grand entrée at the court of Brunswick. He was conducted thither in a very superb state coach, drawn by six white horses; eight servants in splendid liveries preceding it. Lord Malmesbury was first introduced to the duke; then to the duchess, and afterwards to the princess, who was publicly betrothed to the prince of Wales. In the evening there was a grand gala, when her royal highness received the compliments of the nobility on the occasion. An hour previous to the above ceremony, Major Hesketh arrived at Brunswick, with a portrait of the Prince of Wales, which Lord Malmesbury presented to the princess. Every account we receive states how anxious this lady is to be beloved in this her adopted country. Her departure from Brunswick depends altogether on the time of the arrival of commodore Payne's squadron in the Elbe. The princess will not set out till she hears of its having reached Stad.
A DREADFUL CONFLAGRATION
took place at Berlin, in the night of the 27th Nov. which laid in ashes the whole buildings called the Palace of Werther; very little was saved of the papers deposited there, and of the library belonging to the public school. Several persons were killed and wounded, by the falling of a strong wall. Count Wartenleben, a young nobleman of distinction, was taken from under the ruins much wounded; he expired the same night.
LORD GRAVES
is recovering fast from the wound he received on the 29th of May, and it is supposed he will again hoist his flag on board of the Royal Sovereign, on the next cruise. The greatest dispatch is now made in the dock-yard to complete for sea the different ships which are now in commission at this port, supposed to be intended for a winter's cruising squadron.
HAGUE, Nov. 28.
We have received intelligence, that on the 24th instant, Grave surrendered to the French. The terms of capitulation are said to be the same as those of Venlo.
The garrison has marched out with arms and baggage, and allowed to continue to serve against the enemy.
LEYDEN, Nov. 28.
It is confidently asserted, that the garrison of Luxembourg has surrendered by capitulation, after having sustained a blockade of five months.
PARIS, Dec. 4.
PEACE!
The Committee of Public Safety has given in a report, on the various rumours of Peace, which have been in circulation; and after defining the cause which induced the enemies of the Republic to spread those rumours; the intention of the French people on the subject, is thus proclaimed:
"No, Frenchmen, no, you will not forget, the cause that induced you to take up arms, and the only conditions upon which you can lay them down.
"No; you have not advanced so rapidly in this glorious career, to stop at the moment when you are just at the goal; and when you are so near receiving the prize of your victories, you will not suffer it to escape you. Let not our enemies expect it. We will prove to them by new efforts and by new triumphs, that we wish for peace; but peace worthy of our defenders, and worthy of the French people; and in a word, when the people shall consider war as no longer necessary to repair outrages offered to its dignity, or to preserve themselves from new insults, then only will they put a curb on victory, then only will they dictate peace."
TIEL, Dec. 9.
The officers of artillery quartered here have, with the assistance of the country workmen, completed the batteries which they had been ordered to raise. They have been employed since, by the order of General Dundas, who commands here, to make out a plan of the river and its banks above and below this place. It is to extend from this to Nimeguen.
The high bailey, the count de Randwyk, has ordered, by proclamation all the inhabitants along the dyke from Nimeguen to this place, to quit their houses and give them up to the accommodation of the troops. This has made the French believe that a reinforcement is coming. The French call across the river, that they mean to evacuate the opposite shore, but that we shall not find in the country a single pound of bread. This operation is attributed to the great difficulty which they find in subsisting in consequence of the gallant defence of Grave, which cuts off their communication by the Meuse, and the fort St. Andre, which obliges them to pass Bois-le-Duc through a very bad road.
I am sorry to say that our sick increase daily, and our deaths are many.
We have a chain of centinels from Bommel, to and far beyond Nimeguen, to communicate with the allies. The banks of the Waal are well defended by batteries. If the French can by any means cross it, they will turn our right flank, and by passing the Rhine high up, may at the same time turn our left flank—the inundations in that case can alone save Holland. Three bridges are already constructed across the Rhine to favor our retreat.
AN ANECDOTE
having lately appeared in two of the daily papers of London, of a barber having lately set up a sign with a full length picture of Absalom suspended on the branches of a tree, by the hair of his head, with a motto, purporting, that if he had worn a wig, he would not have met this untoward fate; a French gentleman, on reading this anecdote, assures us, that if the circumstance did not originate in Bourdeaux, it was at least copied there, and that shortly after the sign was put up a hair dresser established himself in the neighborhood, and, hurt at the inuendo conveyed against his profession, erected a sign on which were portrayed a river, a ferry boat, and a naked man; one of the passengers in the boat, halting the man on board by the hair of the head, who had just been saved from sinking; with a motto, importing, that "if he had worn a wig he must infallibly have been drowned."
From ALGIERS.
NEW-YORK, Feb. 4.
Extract of a letter from William Penrose, late master of the ship President, belonging to Philadelphia, dated Algiers, Sept. 21, 1794, to a friend in this city.
"IT is now eleven months since the period of my unfortunate captivity commenced, and in that time have only receiv-
ed one letter from America, and that came to hand a few days ago—in that letter, you inform me, that there were some hopes of our being ransomed in a short time; but alas! the time has elapsed, and our prospect of obtaining our freedom appears to be as distant as ever. The Dey hath given permission for any person to come forward on the part of the United States to effect the redemption of the Americans in captivity in this place. Nay, he even fervently wishes to be upon good terms with America, but he thinks them too haughty to come to an understanding with him. But if something is not done soon we may as well give up every idea of liberty, and sink under the pressure of the most abject and cruel slavery; what in the name of GOD can our countrymen be about.
"I will not for a moment entertain the torturing idea of their having forgotten or neglected us. Every other nation has ransomed their subjects and citizens who have had the misfortune to be captured by the corsairs of this regency; and our remaining here as long as we have done, will remain a stigma on the American character—The Dey has consented to ransom the Americans upon the same terms that he hitherto has done the natives of other christian countries, with whom he was at peace—that is 1800 dollars per man, without distinction of rank. The Dutch to the amount of 75 were ransomed in April last upon the above terms, as well as all the Spaniards who were taken in the American ships. But will America the freest country upon earth, suffer her citizens, who have fought and bled to establish & secure that liberty, to languish out a miserable existence in chains and the most abject slavery, doomed every day to carry large stones on our shoulders from one place to another from day-light till dark; and sometimes we are made to work all night long? To support this treatment much longer will be impossible; human nature must sink under the pressure of such accumulated misery. I am sorry to inform you that my friend Capt. M'Shane, is dead; his Mate died in March and himself the 15th June. If his brother has not heard of this event, I beg you will inform him."
BOSTON, Feb. 12.
BARCELONA TAKEN!
From PORTLAND, FEB. 9.
Capt. George Barker, in the schooner Hannah, belonging to Marblehead, arrived here the 4th inst. in 30 days from Lisbon. Three days before Capt. Barker failed, an express arrived at Lisbon with intelligence that the French had positively taken Barcelona, after a battle which lasted three days. The commanders of both armies were killed.
Capt. Barker was at Bilboa a short time before; and while there, about 2000 of the French attacked a city defended by 5000 Spaniards, within 25 miles of that place; took it, and pillaged every kind of public property, and then left it.
It was the general opinion at Bilboa, that that place will be taken by the French as soon as the spring opens.—At the very name of a Frenchman the Spaniards turn pale.
Capt. Barker heard nothing said respecting peace.
EXTRACTS FROM LONDON PAPERS, TO JANUARY 3.
A letter from Gen. Noreau, dated Nov. 22d, announced that Gen. Debrun, after defeating a party of the enemy and repulsed the garrison of Luxembourg, had taken possession of all the military positions within three leagues of the fortress, and formed a complete blockade.
The unprecedented manner in which the new loan has been conducted, has excited the most general indignation. We should have thought that in times like the present, the pledging of the nation, without the concurrence of Parliament, to a pecuniary engagement of twenty four millions sterling, and six of those millions being destined for the all devouring guilt of Germany, would have been a point beyond the Ministerial presumption, even of Mr. Pitt.
The Emperor has engaged with our Court to bring 60,000 men into the field at the opening of the next campaign; the exact number agreed to have been furnished at the beginning of the last, by our good ally the King of Prussia.
The Convention has divided Flanders into seven Districts—Deputies from these respective counties now represent them in the Convention.
The British Head quarters are to be removed from Arnheim to Utrecht.
Ambassadors from several Courts are now at Baden in Switzerland, where are likewise two French Agents.
It is reported that Earl Howe's request to be permitted to resign the command of the Channel Fleet has been complied with, and that Lord Hood is to succeed in that important trust.
The cabinet ministers in council, have passed an order that 40,000 men are to be raised on the British and Irish establishments.
It was on Friday last determined by the Privy Council, that the remaining trials for HIGH
TREASON should be relinquished; in consequence of which, the prisoners still in custody, were brought up this morning to the bar of the Old Bailey and discharged.
Letters from Vienna of the 9th ult. State, that a French Courier had arrived there early in the morning of the 19th, which had excited the greatest astonishment, and had renewed the reports of Peace, though the object of his mission had not transpired.
Extract of a letter from the Hon. JOHN JAY, to his brother, Mr. Frederick Jay, of New York, dated November 21st.
"It will give you pleasure to be informed that THE TREATY I WAS SENT HERE TO NEGOTIATE, WAS SIGNED THE DAY BEFORE YESTERDAY."
[It was universally supposed that Mr. JAY's mission was expressly for the purpose of vindicating the Rights of the United States in their neutrality, and demanding an indemnification for the violation of it by the British.—But by the letter of Mr. JAY to his brother, it appears, that he was further commissioned to enter into a commercial treaty with the British, and he congratulates his brother that he has accomplished this part of his mission; but does not mention a word of his successes as to the declared object on which he was sent, viz. the indemnification. Does not this appear mysterious?]
Mr. Jay has written to his friends, that having finished his business in London, he intended proceeding to Bath, to enjoy some relaxation; and that he expected to embark about the first of February on his return to this country.
Authentic and original.
From AMSTERDAM, Dec. 16.
"The insurrection in Poland is completely subdued; on the 4th November, the suburb of Prague was taken by storm; nearly twenty thousand of inhabitants of every age and condition, and of either sex, were involved in one undistinguished slaughter, by the command of the Russian General Suwaro, the same man under whose orders a similar butchery was executed at Ithmael. The Poles are disarmed. Warsaw is in full possession of the Russian Army, and the remainder of the Republic will perhaps before long be professedly held as a Russian conquest.—The 4th of November is an inauspicious day in the annals of justice.
"The French armies continue to be generally victorious. They have lately obtained a new signal advantage in Spain, though with the loss of their General Dugomier. The armies in this quarter have not yet succeeded in crossing the Waal or the Rhine, nor in taking Mentz, but there is little doubt that they will. According to all present appearances this country will within six months be in alliance with France or a conquest of her arms. Of a general peace, there does not appear to be the smallest prospect.
"In Paris, the moderate party upon the whole, still prevails. The Jacobins are abolished, but may possibly revive. All the cruelties of the system of terror are attributed to Robespierre, whose memory is certainly loaded with more than his share of them. A partial peace has been avowed by Tallien to be the object of their present government. Their great inveteracy is against the British, with whom they appear determined to continue the war. A separate peace may perhaps be made with Spain and Portugal. With the Emperor it will not be so easy. With Prussia it has become less probable since the total defeat of the Poles. With this country, it is first to be expected.
"Britain wishes for peace, but knows not how to obtain it. Another campaign will run down the Ministry of this day, and a new set of men will be glad to close the war by the sacrifice of all their acquisitions in the course of it. The pride of that nation must once more be mortified if not humbled."
From LISBON, Jan. 3.
"To any port of the Mediterranean, there is not the smallest danger of the Algerines or Moors."
From AUX-CAYES, Jan. 6.
"Gen. Rigaud has returned from Cape-Tiburon, which place he has lately taken from the English, and put the garrison to the sword."
A letter from London, dated Nov. 21, says, "the Posts in Canada are to be delivered up to America on the 30th June, 1796, allowing six months grace for unavoidable contingencies; after which time, they are to be free for the passage of the traders of both countries, with their effects. That goods imported from one into the other country, shall be liable to the same duties as may be payable at the ports of either. That felons or debtors absconding from either to the other country, shall not be sheltered from justice, but shall be given up.—That the shipping of America shall have additional (but restricted) privileges in the trade to the West-Indies.—That commissioners shall be appointed on both sides to regulate the recovery of debts, and generally, so far as we have been able to learn, the terms give the greatest satisfaction to all we have heard mention them, and we sincerely pray, that this treaty may prove the foundation of the most perfect harmony and lasting friendship between the two countries, and that they may not be interrupted by considerations unworthy the notice of either."
The Treaty concluded between the United States and the Six Nations of Indians, mentioned some time since, has been officially published at Philadelphia. It is signed by Gen. Pickering, and a great number of the Indians.

An act to facilitate the opening and making passable a certain road from Barlow's mills (so called) in Stratford, in the county of Grafton, in said State, to the great road in Shelburne.
Whereas a road or highway beginning at Barlow's mills (so called) in Stratford, in the county of Grafton, in said State, thence running through Stratford, Peirce, Winslow's Location, Paulsburg, Mainburg, Shelburne addition, and to the great road in Shelburne, has of late been laid out by order, and at the expence of this State; and whereas the opening and making passable the said road would be of great public utility.

FIRST PARISH.
At a meeting of the Parishioners of the first Parish in Portsmouth, to take into consideration the propriety of contributing to the assistance of their suffering brethren in captivity.
Voted unanimously, That a sum be raised on the approaching day of Public Thanksgiving, to be appropriated as soon as may be to the redemption of the American prisoners at Algiers.
Also voted, That the parishioners be furnished with blank notes to be filled up at the pleasure of the donor, and to be paid (when called for) to the committee that may be appointed to receive the same, which notes will be received into the boxes in manner of public contribution.
A committee was chosen to prepare and distribute the above blanks, and to take charge of the same, when returned in, also to inquire as to the mode in which the proceeds can be applied to the aforesaid purpose, and to report the result to the parish for their consideration.
The above method was adopted in consideration of the uncertainty, as to the time when the object can be accomplished, and the possibility that the general Government may yet make the matter a subject of their attention, and supersede the necessity of the measure.
Should any prefer contributing cash, it will be duly taken care of by the committee, and if it be not applied to the use for which it was given, it will, if marked, be returned to the donors, and if not marked be disposed of for charitable purposes, by a major vote of the Parish.
UNIVERSALIST SOCIETY.
At a meeting of the Universalist Society, Portsmouth, February 1795. Capt. PETER COUES, Moderator. It being agreed to have a contribution for the relief of our brethren in captivity at Algiers, on Thanksgiving day, 19th Feb.
Voted, That Mr. RICHARDS be requested to give notice thereof on the Sabbath preceding, and at the close of the forenoon service on said Thanksgiving day, that the contribution will be made in the afternoon, and that he be requested to prepare a discourse for the occasion.
Voted, That any donors to said contribution, may, if they please, mark the sum which he or she puts into the Charity-Box, with his or her name, or any other mark, as they may think proper.
Voted, That the clerk shall faithfully register all such marked monies in a book for that purpose.
Voted, That if any impediment should finally arise so as to prevent the application of said monies to the purpose for which they were expressly given, that every donor shall have the money so given returned.
Voted, That in case said donors or any part of them should decline to mark their specific sums given, then the total amount of said unmarked monies shall be registered by the clerk; and if the same cannot be applied to the purpose for which given, that a meeting shall be publicly warned, and a majority of the donors shall determine the final application of said monies.
Voted, That Messrs. Moses Woodward, Joshua Brackett, Jeremiah Libbey, Daniel R. Rogers and Richard Champney, be a committee to receive any donations that may be made for the foregoing purpose.
PETER COUES, Moderator. Attest, JEREMIAH LIBBEY, Clerk. The committee of the society who are under-named pledge their honor to every donor for the absolute fulfilment of the above conditions.
Moses Woodward, Joshua Brackett, Jeremiah Libbey, Daniel R. Rogers, Richard Champney.
Should any person who may not contribute on said Thanksgiving-Day, incline to put any sum into the hands of said committee for the above purpose, it will be received on the same conditions.
PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 6.
We are informed from an authentic source, that the last advices from Morocco render it highly probable that there is no longer any danger to the shipping of the United States, from the cruisers of that kingdom.
But it is reported that two Algerine vessels of 44 and 33 guns, intend to endeavor to make their way to the Atlantic Ocean, as early as possible this year.
Copy of a letter from James Maury, Esq. consul of the United States at Liverpool to the Secretary of State, dated 13th Dec. 1794.
Sir, I have the honor to inclose you a price current for this month. Since it was extended the ports have been opened to foreign wheat, as you will please to observe at the foot of it.
Many of our vessels in this port have lately been subjected to much inconvenience and detention for not being manned in conformity to the navigation act; I submit to you the propriety of publishing the particulars, viz.
No vessel should come here unless three fourths of her crew at least be citizens of the United States. No British-born man, resident in the U. S. since the 3d February, 1783 is admitted an American citizen: to be received as such, he must have been in the allegiance of the United States at that period. The penalty fixed by law is forfeiture of ship with cargo; and although the rigor of it hath not yet been executed in any instance in this consulate, yet as it may be otherwise I would particularly recommend that no vessels venture to come here unless the crews be perfectly in order, and if part of them British born, that they bring regular documents to make it so appear.
I have the honor to be with perfect respect your most obedient servant JAMES MAURY. True copy of the original. GEO. TAYLOR, jun. C. Clerk.
BOSTON, Feb. 16.
On Saturday evening, returned from France, via Philadelphia, James Swan, Esq. by whom we learn, that our republican friend, la Tombe, whose former residence in this town endeared him to so many of its citizens, is appointed Consul General, from the French Republic, to the United States.
FRENCH AMBASSADOR.
Extract of a letter from Baltimore, dated February 3.
"There is nothing new here at present but the following which I have just received from the custom house—that there are arrived in the Chesapeake two French line of battle ships and three frigates; that they have on board an ambassador from the National Convention to the United States; and it is reported he has with him a new treaty between France and America. As several English ships of war have been lately cruising off our coast, probably this French fleet may sail in with them; in that case we may expect soon to hear of an engagement."
THE ISLAND OF CORSICA.
in consequence of the admission of Jacobin
principles, is now distracted with all the frenzy of faction. The rage of party-spirit has risen so high among the inhabitants, that open hostilities have ensued.
The Paolists are divided among themselves: the French party is daily gaining strength; for, since the return of the British fleet to the gulf of St. Florenzo, a report has been current, that the French intend to make a descent on Corsica.
A great ferment seems to pervade every part of the island, so much that the English have deemed it expedient to concentrate all their land forces at St. Florenzo.
The two French squadrons which have lately joined at Toulon, consist of sixteen ships of the line, ten frigates, or armed barks, and a number of smaller vessels fitted for war; two more ships of the line will be ready for sea in the course of this month, and eight more are on the stocks.
A HORRID MURDER!
On Wednesday last, between the hours of 12 and 1 in the morning, a most horrid murder was committed on the body of Capt. Charles Furbush, of Andover, by a negro man of his own family, named Pomp. The family of the deceased, consisted of his wife, a son, three daughters and the negro before mentioned. The son, and two of the daughters were from home. The deceased and his wife, slept as usual, in the room of the lower floor, and the daughter in a bed room adjacent. The negro had retired to his chamber without any signs of uneasiness known to the family.—But between 12 and 1 he got up, dressed himself, and first alarmed the daughter, by an attempt to get into her room; but finding the door fastened, desisted from the attempt.—He immediately entered the room of the deceased, while both he and his wife were in a sound sleep, and struck him with the head of an axe upon his left temple with such force, as to dash in the skull; and with a second blow, partly upon the left eye and partly upon the cheek, drove in the bones—he expired immediately without a groan. The blows awoke Mrs. Furbush, who instantly springing up, the negro left the room. The daughter also hearing the blows and the screech of her mother, instantly ran in, and with her mother, attempted to raise up the body of the deceased, but finding no signs of life, made their escape by a back way, to the nearest neighbor, to call assistance. In the mean time, to complete the horrid scene, the negro returned, took off his coat, turned up his shirt sleeves, and with a knife inhumanly cut his master's throat. He then dragged the body from the bed, and left it naked on the floor. By this time, assistance came, and found the negro standing by the kitchen fire.—Being asked what he had been doing, he readily confessed the fact, and delivered himself up.
Thus died Capt. Charles Furbush, in the 59th year of his age; who has left an afflicted family and friends to lament his untimely fate!
From MARBLEHEAD.
At a meeting of the committee, &c. on the 4th of February, 1795.
AGREED, to recommend to the Rev. Isaac Story, and those of the congregational society under his ministerial care, that are charitably disposed, to distinguish the approaching day of public thanksgiving, by a contribution to the relief of our American brethren, who are at this moment, dragging the chains of slavery at Algiers, that "city of bondage, and of death."
Attest. ISAAC MANSFIELD, Chairman.
AN ARRIVAL AT PORTLAND.
(Ship Charlotte, Capt. Randall, from Liverpool) brings London intelligence, as late as the 16th December; containing, among other articles of confirmation, an official account of the French successes, in the Eastern Pyrenees—the surrender of Warfaw, and the complete re-conquest of Poland.
The convention of France is still violently agitated. From a late speech of Tallien, there is reason to believe that Barrere must fall.
The Prussian accounts of Nov. 29th, say that 200 Russians constantly mount guard in Warfaw; and 1200 are constantly about the person of the King of Poland.
General Kosciusko, is not dead, as has been intimated in the Boston papers. He was severely wounded, and is sent to Peterfburg.
British Friendship for America.
On the 17th of Dec. the merchants in London, trading to this country, gave a very splendid entertainment to Mr. Jay, our Envoy Extraordinary to the British Court—which was attended by the Lord Chancellor, Mr. Pitt, the Duke of Portland, Mr. Dundas, and a number of other distinguished noblemen, &c. The following toasts, among others, were given, on this joyful occasion—The King and the Constitution.—The President of the United States.—May the Treaty of Amity, Commerce and Navigation between Great-Britain and the United States of America, be the basis of a permanent friendship between the two countries.—May Britons and Americans never forget that they are of one family.—Mr. Jay, gave—An honorable peace to the Belligerent Powers of Europe.—In return the following was given—May the united exertions of England and America, induce the Indian Nations to bury the Hatchet forever."
The last toast, in return to Mr. Jay, says a correspondent, must be considered as explanatory of the conduct of the British; as the Indian war has been principally supported by them, their withdrawing their assistance therefore, no doubt, will have a tendency to restore peace in that quarter.
ADMIRAL MURRAY'S SQUADRON
is cruising on the southern coast. It was the
Concord that run the Thetis aground. The Thetis is said to be at Norfolk re-fitting. The ship harmony of Baltimore, and a French 22 gun ship from Rochefort with wine and brandy, have been carried into harbor by a British 74.
A SOCIETY
is established in Virginia for insuring buildings against fire. A general office governed by a president and eight directors, and three cashiers general is to be established at Richmond; and at Norfolk, Suffolk, Williamsburg, Peterfburg, Richmond, Frederickfburg, Alexandria, Winchester, Staunton, and at other places if necessary, to be managed by one clerk or cashier.
go ha gon fet mu rei and fica T hav was ty of the children of Capet, or to give them instruction." Is not this visiting the iniquities of the father upon the children, with a vengeance?
Opposition in the British Parliament, which a year ago, dwindled down to between 40 and 50, has now risen to between 70 and 80. Until they ride paramount, no Peace can be made.
The Portuguese Admiral stationed at Gibraltar, lately sent a convoy to protect the American vessels at Malaga, which measure was highly approved of, by his Court.
THE PROSPECT OF PEACE
which of late apparently appeared so brilliant, is now overhadowed. The National Convention have protested against a general Peace—and Mr. Pitt, the prime director of the affairs of England, if not of coallesced Europe, is strongly for war. Austria is making redoubled efforts to bring into the field a formidable army, early in the spring, and since the unfortunate turn of affairs, in Poland, the king of Prussia talks of fulfilling his former contracts of actively operating in the war. Holland will unquestionably make peace; and perhaps Spain will sue for the same; but as these powers have done but little in the War, we may still renew our former prediction, that a General Peace will not take place these two years! Any thing that speculators may say to the contrary notwithstanding.
PROSECUTION of the WAR.
LONDON, DEC. 2.
Mr. Pitt has negotiated a loan of Twenty-four Millions sterling—eighteen for Great-Britain, and six for the Emperor. The Bankers have agreed to furnish it.
Twenty new regiments are to be raised immediately, and letters of service are ordered for that purpose.
Yesterday 313 commissions for the army, were signed by the king, at Windsor.
MARINE INTELLIGENCE.
Baltimore, February 2, 1795.
Captain Smith left at Bermuda, the ship Bacchus, Robbins, the Sloop Jenny, and the Schooner Ann, Peters, all of this place, together with about 15 sail of American vessels, belonging to different ports, taken and sent in there by the swarm of pirates which hover round the island: Among them was a vessel bound from Port-de-Paix to an American port, with 30,000 dollars on board. They were all libelled when Capt. S. failed.
Captain Mahool left at Jaquemel 17 sail of American vessels among which were the Schooner Active, Captain Cumpston; a sloop commanded by Captain Buel, and a pilot-boat built vessel, commanded by Captain Billings—all belonging to this port. The names of the others he does not remember.
From NEW-YORK, Feb. 9.
Capt. Gardner, of the ship Joseph, arrived here yesterday from Cherbourg, informs that previous to his departure he was in Paris, and dined with Mr. THOMAS PAINE, who had been liberated from Luxembourg prison, and was admitted to take his seat in the National Convention. The remainder of the Brissotine party had also been liberated. The utmost tranquility existed at Paris, and throughout France. The Spaniards has lately experienced another complete defeat, with immense loss of men and warlike stores.
