Political Miscellany.
From the Eastern Argus.
PERHAPS there never has been a
time when more has been said about
Federalists and Republicans, than at
present, and no two parties ever ex-isted in any Country, where their ul-timate objects were more diametrically
opposite to each other in principle. And in order critically to ascertain the
views of each party, I think it well for every true American, at times, to re-flect upon the first principles of the
American Government, (without par-tiality to any party whatever,) for al-though the power of prejudice and
passion are surprisingly powerful and delusive, yet their effects are never
honorable, but often lead us into error and difficulty. I have lately seen
a short description of the American Constitution in a School Book, calcu-
lated wholly for the use and instruc-tion of children, and therefore may be
considered as free from partiality for any party whatever, and consequently
contains the pure principles of the A-merican form of Government; from
which I will quote a few questions
with their answers:—
Question What is a Constitution
of Government? Answer. A Constitution of Gov-ernment, or a political Constitution, con-
sists in certain standing rules or ordi-nances, agreed upon by a Nation or
State, determining the manner in which the supreme power shall be ex-
ercised over that Nation or State, or rather how the Legislative body shall
be formed.
Q. How many kinds of Constitu-tions are there; or in how many ways
may the sovereign power be exercised over a people? A. Constitutions are commonly di-
vided into three kinds: Monarchy, Aristocracy, and Democracy.
Q. Explain these sorts of Govern-ment.
A. When the sovereign power is
exercised by one person, the Constitution
is a Monarchy. When a few rich men
or Nobles have the whole supreme
power in their hands, the Constitution
is an Aristocracy. When the supreme
power is exercised by all the citizens, (in a general meeting or assembly,) the
Constitution is a Democracy.
Q. How many kinds of Monarchy are there?
A. Two, despotic and limited. Despotic Monarchy is when one person
has an unbounded power of making
laws and governing as he pleases. Limited Monarchy is when one person
has the power of governing, under cer-tain restraints, laid upon him by the
fundamental laws of the State.
Q. How many kinds of Democracy are there?
A. Two, direct and indirect. When all the citizens of a State meet to-
gether for the purpose of making laws, the supreme power is exercised directly
by the people. This is direct or pure
Democracy. When the citizens, be-ing too numerous to meet together in
person, choose deputies or representa-tives to make laws for them, the su-preme power is indirectly exercised by
the people. This Government is called a Representative Republic or Demo-cracy.
Q. Which of these kinds of Gov-ernment

their assemblies make a crowd or mob, where debates cannot be carried on with coolness and candor, nor can arguments be heard; therefore a pure Democracy is generally a very bad Government. It is often the most tyrannical Government on earth; for a multitude is rash, violent, and will not hear reason.
2. What are the peculiar advantages of a representative Government?
A. When deputies or representatives are chosen to make laws, they will commonly consult the interest of the people who choose them; and if they do not, the people can choose others in their room. Besides, the deputies coming from all parts of a State, bring together all the knowledge and information necessary to show the true interest of the whole State; at the same time, being but few in number, they can hear arguments and debate peaceably on a subject. But the great security of such a government, is, that the men who make laws, are to be governed by them; so that they are not apt to do wrong wilfully. When men make laws for themselves, as well as for their neighbors, they are led by their own interest to make good laws.
2. Which of the forms or kinds of Government is adopted by the American States?
A. The States are all governed by Constitutions that fall under the name of Representative Democracies , or Republics .
The people choose deputies to act for them in making laws, and in general, the deputies, when assembled, have as full power to make and repeal laws, as the whole body of freemen would have, if they were collected for the same purpose.
2. By what name may we call the United States in their political capacity?
A. A Federal Republic . The form of the Government adopted by the States, is a Representative Democracy . The union of the States makes a Republic or great Commonwealth .
Fellow Citizens —We are now led to consider whether the aforementioned statement is correct. Our form of Government is there said to be a Democracy —is that the fact? or have we sworn allegiance to a morose King? have we given up all power into the hands of a few rich men? have we established an order of Nobility to rule us contrary to our will, to tax us without our consent, and compel us all to believe in one established form of religion. If not, then we have no other form of Government than a limited Democracy . Here it may be proper for us to consider what is meant by a limited Democracy , or a Republican form of Government . It means nothing more nor less than a form of Government where the supreme power of making and repealing laws, levying taxes, making treaties, and every other power is exercised by the people through the hands of deputies they appoint for that purpose, for a limited time; but if the people think their officers do not conduct in such a manner as tends to promote their interest and happiness, they have a right to exclude them from office and choose other rulers, who will promote their interest and respect their sovereignty. The reins of Government are completely and equally in the hands of every American citizen. This prevents the rich from rioting on the poor, and the wicked from pulling down the rich. The people rule themselves.
The people are the strength of every nation in the known world, and the American Constitutions and people say, that where the strength of a nation lies, there ought also the power to be exercised.
"We the people of the United States do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States, &c." What can be more Democratic . We the people rule ourselves. We are all equal in Government except so far as merit alone shall make distinction, and real merit never fails of its reward.
Happy Americans! What a field for enterprise and genius. No hereditary appointments to eclipse the brilliancy of your genius; no dread of royal blood to blast your prospects; no oath of allegiance to an imperious King, to support him and his measures however oppressive, before you act in a political sphere for yourself and brethren; no unfeeling haughty and morose Aristocrat to rule over you, and demand the first fruits of your labour, till you become smitten with poverty and the fattening upon your impoverishment; no press-gang to snatch the children of your own flesh, from your embraces and drag them to the field of battle, to defend at the expence of their lives an unhappy Monarch. But here every one sits under his own vine and fig-tree, peaceably enjoying the fruits of his own industry; here the opulent may become affluent, the poor may become rich, and the obscure may become renowned.
Was there ever a nation in the world, where peace and happiness were so generally and equally diffused among its citizens? And here the Americans have a never failing source of consolation, which is, that their form of government is congenial with the will of Heaven and the natural rights of man. If any doubt this, let them look into the Bible, particularly the New-Testament, which they will find to be replete from the beginning to the end with the principles of Democracy , or the right the people have to govern themselves.
The doctrines in that blessed Book all tend to promote the happiness of mankind indiscriminately. The difficulties are all directed to the people. The soul of one man is there considered of as much consequence as that of another; and of course, their happiness here as well as hereafter of equal value. Truth and the way of salvation are imparted to all men of whatever grade upon equal terms.
That the laws of nature cultivate the principles of a limited Democracy , is evident, when we consider that we all came into the world upon a level, are alike capable of improvement, subject to disasters, and take our exit equally by the cold hand of death.
Mankind are all born free agents, every movement is dictated by his own election, he chooses his own religion, his own place of residence, his own mode of obtaining a living &c. These are all evidences that he has a right to have a voice in the election of all who are to rule over him. Had it been the will of the Divine Being that the people should not rule themselves, but should be ruled by Kings or Noblemen , they would undoubtedly have been marked out in such a manner, as that they would have been known as soon as they entered into the world, and respected as such. When we seriously consider that the American Democratic Constitution is founded on principles, from which flow equal rights and liberties, and diffuses general happiness among the whole people; and its principles are squared by the general rules of the Divine Law —we derive much consolation in firmly believing that the blessings of our Government will continue to cheer the soul, and warm the heart of many generations yet unborn.
The American form of Government is viewed by all Nations with admiration; they behold us possessed of a form of Government founded upon sound principles of equity and justice; modified with such extraordinary checks and balances, as will carry it through time, enjoying the smiles of Providence, and pointing as it passes every citizen, to the rich entertainments of freedom and prosperity.
Fellow Citizens , let us assume what appellation we may in politics, we will at all times venerate the principles of our excellent Government.—Let us never be ashamed to acknowledge ourselves genuine Republicans or Democrats, for if we discard either of those appellations, and act contrary to their principles, we are acting against our own form of government, against our own interest and happiness. Let every honest man cultivate in his own family a love of Democracy . Let them be told that in America the people rule themselves by their representatives; that no man, nor body of men have a right in the sight of heaven, to assume the government of a people without their consent.—What would be the sensations of the rising generation, should they be left to grow up ignorant of the blessed principles of our Government, and barter them away for any other that might be proposed. Heaven has blessed us with the best form of Government that ever existed. Let us remember that Peter also was blessed with the best master that was ever on earth; but not like him, lay a foundation for repentance, by denying or disowning the principles of our blessed Government. CIVIS.
FEDERAL CONSISTENCY.
Formerly every one who dared to dissent from the measures of Government, however unwise, was a disorganizer, Jacobin, &c.
Now , the determined opposers and inveterate revilers of all the measures of Government indiscriminately, arrogate to themselves the title of "Friends of Order."
Formerly , every Republican must sacrifice his opinion, for the sake of preserving union so necessary to the dignity, energy, and efficiency of Government.
Now , the Feds do their utmost to divide and distract the country, when the whole strength of the nation ought to nerve the arm of Government, to enable it to encounter the unjust pretensions and insulting aggressions of Spain and Britain.
Formerly , Federal Address were poured in upon the President to assure him of loyalty and support with their lives and fortunes.
Now , Federalism heaps upon the President's head its bitterest reproach-
es and curses, and holds out to foreign nations the idea that we are a divided People, and that our Government is so weak and "pusillanimous" as to submit to every indignity and outrage without retaliation or resentment—thus inviting insult and aggression.
Formerly , the Feds thought the "Finger of Heaven" pointed to "a war of exterminism" with the then Republic of France; and since to a crusade against Spanish America, in which thousands of lives must have been sacrificed to obtain what we have peacefully acquired.
Now , the administration is censured for not glutting the rapacity, of a petty barbarous power, by paying their full demand for ransom and tribute, rather than to reduce them to reason by force.
If these politicians ever reflect upon their inconsistent and absurd conduct, they must be dead to every sensation of honor and shame if they again attempt to palin their opinions upon the public.
BY THE LAST MAILS.
NATCHES, ( Mississippi ) AUG. 16.
Letters from Natchitoches, (on the Red river, in Louisiana, about 70 leagues from the confluence of the Red River with the Mississippi) dated the 4th June, mention the arrival there of his highness the Bishop of Montrey—a Spanish grandee. He travelled in style, in a coach drawn by six mules.—He was escorted by 60 cavalry, and a part of pioneers; and a numerous suite. He wore a mitre and purple robe, appeared to be about 45, rather short and fat, of easy manners, facetious and agreeable in conversation. He is said to be a near relation of the Spanish Prince of Peace. He has jurisdiction over 5 provinces, with an annual income of 50,000 dollars. He carried a theodolite with him for taking the latitude of places. Nagadoches, he says, is in lat. 41 15.
From the National Intelligencer. Dinner to Captain Bainbridge, given by the Citizens of Washington.
By 3 o'clock the company had collected, and at half past 3 the dinner was served up. Captain Tingey and Colonel Wharton having been previously chosen President and Vice-President for the day.
Captain Bainbridge was handed by the officers appointed to the seat at the right hand of the chair; and captain James Barron to that on the left. The other officers present and the citizens of Washington took their seats as convenient, and without distinction. After dinner the following toasts were drank, accompanied by music from the band of the Marine corps, and the elegant Italian band, arrived in the frigate President.
1. The President of the United States.
air—Jefferson's march.
2. The Vice-President of the U. States.
Patriotic air.
3. The Heads of Departments.

7. Commodore Rodgers and the officers of the Mediterranean squadron.

Song—The sweet little cherub that sits up aloft, to take care of the life of poor Jack.
air—Jenny's returned from Dover.
9. Captain Eaton; The man who had the abilities to plan, the perseverance to promote, and fortitude to establish the fame of the American character, in a land where it was scarcely known, in defiance of slavery or death.

10. May the powers of Barbary henceforward learn, as all Europe knew before, that the threats of chains to Americans only enflames to victory.

Song and air—Hearts of Oak.

13. May we never lose a ship but in chase of the enemy.
Patriotic air.
14. Col. Lear; The patriotic pacificator, who effected an honorable peace with Tripoli.
Music.

Patriotic air.
16. The Bashaw of Tripoli; May he profit by the lectures he has received on the Laws of Nations.
Oh dear what can the matter be!
17. No chains but those of love—No captivity but to the American Fair.
With women and wine we defy every care.
The highest social order prevailed, and benignity dwelt upon every countenance. Several patriotic and other appropriate songs were interspersed with the toasts, and the company broke up at an early hour.
BOSTON, OCT. 7.
Latest from EUROPE.
Our files of London papers, received by the Galen, are to Aug. 18.—It appears from these accounts, that the English government, in the East Indies, have experienced a series of ill success in their warfare against the numerous and powerful friends of Holkar, particularly in his strong hold of Bhurtpore. Terms of peace had been offered to the British; but refused, on any other principle, than that of an unconditional surrender.
In addition to the general and uniform opinion which prevails in all parts of Europe, that an alliance of almost all the Northern Powers has been established against France, we are enabled to relate, on the authority of a private letter received here from a high source of respectability in London, that "a part of a subsidy of 3,500,000, in specie, was then packing up at the Bank, destined, for the continent; but to what power was not publicly known.
Letters from Madrid, state, that the most active preparations are going on in all the ports of Spain. At Cadiz four new ships of the line, one of 136 guns, were ready for sea.
The Emperor Napoleon arrived at Bologna on the 3d inst. and the following day reviewed the infantry, which were drawn upon the beach, and extended from Cape d'Aspre as far as Cape Grinez. The number of troops exceeded 112,000 and his majesty was on horseback from 10 in the morning, until 7 in the evening.
The French and Italian troops, in upper Italy are estimated at 70,000.
Intelligence has reached England, that the whole of the French coast, from Morlaix to Boulogne, is lined with troops for the avowed purpose of invading England; that the cannon, camp equipage, ammunition, &c. provided for the grand expedition, is beyond all example; and that the soldiers speak of the invasion in strains of rapture and enthusiasm. Some letters from the continent state, that the expedition was to have taken place early in August, but a squadron of men of war which was expected from Rochfort, or Brest had not arrived, but was momentarily looked for. No doubts appeared to be entertained, throughout the whole of the armed coast, which stretches from Brest to the Texel, but that the invasion of England would be attempted and that too immediately.
The escape of the combined fleets appears to have caused a great degree of dissatisfaction in England. The battle, though a victorious one, seems to have been below the hopes of that nation; murmurs begin to arise, and to grow louder by repeating. It is in fact stated, that the Court of Admiralty have judged it necessary to be made known, that an investigation of the conduct of Ad. Calder, would take place, agreeably to the provisional articles of war.
WALPOLE, (N. H.) SEPT. 21.
On the night of the fourteenth of August the dwelling-house of hon. Amasa Allen, of this village was entered by some abandoned villain, and upwards of six hundred dollars in American Gold and bank bills, taken from a desk, together with a quantity of notes of hand. It is supposed he entered through a window and opened the desk with a false key. The drawers, in which the money and notes were kept were also taken. Two thousand dollars have been offered for the detection of the thief and the recovery of the property. It is not one year since the store of Amasa and Oliver Allen was robbed of goods to the amount of about seven hundred dollars in value, no part of which has been recovered. It is hoped that the extraordinary reward offered, and the resentment of the public for this second outrage upon society and a highly respected individual, will be the means of bringing to deserved punishment the infamous perpetrators of the deed.
"Shew me a person," said an honest old gentleman, "that is praised, honored and caressed by the federalists, and I will immediately shew you a man that is not a Republican."— Quere —Would not this be a good rule by which to distinguish between real and pretended republicans.
Portsmouth,
TUESDAY, OCTOBER 8, 1805.
FIRE! —Within the last ten days there has been several attempts made in the night to fire the dwelling House and out-buildings of Nathaniel Adams, Esq. of this town; yesterday morning the incendiary succeeded, and completely set fire to the barn; which with about ten tons of Hay, was entirely consumed. It was with great exertions his House, and the other buildings near, were saved, the wind blowing fresh at N. West.
Mechanical Association.
Thursday last being the anniversary of the ASSOCIATED MECHANICS AND MANUFACTURERS OF NEW HAMPSHIRE, the same was celebrated in this town, in a style which did honor to the institution. At half past 11 o'clock, a procession formed (under the direction of the Marshal and deputy Marshal) from Jefferson-hall, preceded by the best band of Music that ever honored this town; This band was from Exeter and did themselves infinite credit.
The procession proceeded in the most perfect and excellent order to the Rev. Mr. RICHARDS' meeting house, where the throne of grace was addressed in a well adapted and appropriate prayer by the Rev. Mr. RICHARDS, after which there was Music (suitable to the occasion, and then an address was delivered by Mr. CHARLES PEIRCE, which gave universal satisfaction to the audience. In his address (which took up about half an hour) he pointed out the benevolence of the institution, and then descended on the various mechanical professions; their utility and importance; also, the preference and encouragement which should be given to American manufactures; and then concluded with an exhortation to the Brethren on a strict observance of the benevolent, humane, and charitable purposes which prompted to the institution. After which they repaired to Mr. Davenport's hall, where they partook of an elegant entertainment provided for the occasion, and where the following toasts were drank.
1 The Associated Mechanics and Manufacturers of New-Hampshire, one and indivisible.
2 The Anniversary of our Institution, Benevolence its base; Charity its Capital.
3 All similar Associations, may we be united as one.

9 By Mr. Joseph Clark, jun. The American fair; may they be convinced of the stability and dignity of an honest Mechanic, and ever prefer the hard hand of honesty, to the delicate hand of deception.
10 By the President, In our soliloquy may we never for a moment forget what is due to propriety and our own dignity.
11 By the Vice President, The commerce of our country, may it continue to reward the Merchant, employ the Mechanic, and mutually exchange the comforts of life.
12 By Ebenezer Clifford, Esq. Perseverance to all that are in the right, reformation to all that are in the wrong.
13 By Mr. John B. Hill, The Standard of the Association, may it be deserted by none but those who are unworthy of it.
14 By Mr. Thomas F. Drowne, Success to our friends, and reformation to our enemies.
15 By the President, (after Mr. Peirce had retired) The Orator of the day.
Several other volunteers were given, but we do not recollect them.
The company dispersed in Mechanical time and good order, and formed a cavalcade and escorted the Music part way to Exeter.
COMMUNICATION.
Messrs. PRINTERS,
As the period for choosing a representative to the General Court rapidly advances, it is highly necessary that we should be vigilant in promoting a union of sentiment, and in selecting a citizen of talents, on whose integrity and faithfulness we can firmly rely.—It is my most sincere wish that moderation and wisdom may preside in our councils, that we may be enabled to adopt those measures which will reflect honor to the State, and insure the plaudits of our fellow-townsmen.
It appears from the best information, that the republicans are generally united in Mr. RICHARD EVANS, as the most suitable candidate to represent this town in the general court.
This nomination cannot but meet the approbation of all true republicans—if superior merit be considered a suitable recommendation,—Mr. EVANS, therefore shall have my vote in preference to any other candidate. A Republican.
Necessary Caution.
We have had some alarm in the country lately, from a report of the existence of an extremely venomous worm, whose bite is said to be mortal. This reptile is of the size of the potatoe worm, or rather smaller, of a green colour, and feeds on the Lombardy Poplar leaf—its sting and bite, I have heard, have already caused the death of two gentlemen, one in three hours the other in six: as well as that of a Cat, exposed as an experiment, and who died in three or four hours. (New Jersey paper.)

State of New-Hampshire. PUBLIC Notice is hereby given, that JOSEPH DYER and others, have petitioned the General Court representing that it is highly necessary not only to promote the settlement of new countries, but for the accommodation of the public at large, to have as early as may be convenient, our market roads judiciously laid out, which in many cases like this, would operate as a vast saving, both of time spent in travelling and money in clearing roads, (which when the country becomes settled, are wholly neglected) when a much shorter and more level way might be found and through lands infinitely better for settlement. And whereas, it has long since been contemplated, by a large number of the northeasterly settlements in the State of Vermont, and the northerly settlements in this State, that a much shorter, more level and convenient route to market, may be had down Amosicoggin river, than the road now travelled thro' the notch of the White Hills. And whereas a road is laid out from Colebrook through Errol to Dummer, and one from Strafford through Piercy to Dummer, and another from the toll bridge over Connecticut River, at the little falls in Northumberland to Piercy and thence to Dummer, all of which being made passable, will in the opinion of said petitioners, accommodate three fourths of the inhabitants in the new county of Coos much better than the one through the notch. And whereas a road has been laid out, and partly cleared from Dummer through Paulsburg, Maynesborough, Shelburne addition and Shelburne to extend from thence to Portland or Portsmouth, which in point of distance, will save thirty miles, and being infinitely more level, will upon a moderate calculation save 20 miles more. And whereas Winslow's location, Paulsburg, Maynesborough and Shelburne addition are as yet unsettled, the petitioners therefore pray that the Legislature would grant a tax on said Winslow's Location, Dummer, Paulsburg, Maynesborough and Shelburne addition, of THREE CENTS on each acre, public lands excepted, under such regulations and restrictions as shall be thought best for the public good.
ORDERED that the petitioners be heard on said petition before the General Court on the second Wednesday of their next session, and that the petitioners cause that the substance of the petition and order of Court thereon, be published in the New-Hampshire Gazette and in the Oracle, printed at Portsmouth, three weeks successively, commencing ten weeks prior to said day of hearing, that any person or persons may then appear, and show cause, if any they have, why the prayer thereof may not be granted. Attest, JOHN A. HARPER, Clerk of the Senate. Concord, June 17, 1805.
TO LET, PART of a HOUSE in Buck-street. Inquire of WILLIAM SIMES. Portsmouth, October 8, 1805.
Five Hundred Dollars Reward. WHEREAS on the evening of the 29th of last month, being Sabbath evening, an attempt was made by some abandoned daring Villain or villains to burn the mansion-house, office, and other out-houses of Nathaniel Adams, Esq. and several other attempts of the same nefarious kind and purpose were made in the course of last week; and whereas early this morning, the barn of the said Nathaniel Adams, Esq. was burnt, under such circumstances as shew that it was set fire to by some malignant incendiary or incendiaries; the Selectmen of Portsmouth offer the above reward to any person or persons, who shall give information of the person or persons who perpetrated this atrocious act, and of proofs that shall avail to convict him or them thereof, in the proper Court of Justice.
GEORGE GAINS, MOSES WOODWARD, SAMUEL HUTCHINGS, ELIJAH HALL, SETH WALKER, Selectmen. Portsmouth, October 7, 1805.
State of New-Hampshire. PUBLIC NOTICE is hereby given, that Eliza Blake and others have petitioned the General Court, representing that the legislature at their December session 1803, granted a tax on the town of Strafford, among other things to make a road from Strafford to Piercy, and at their June session 1804, granted a tax on the town of Northumberland, a part of which to be laid out on a road from Northumberland to Piercy, and whereas said said roads join in Piercy and extend on eastward through said Piercy, Winslow's Location, Dummer, Paulsburg and on to Shelburne, it being a principal road from the north east part of said State to Portland. And whereas, to accommodate the public, it is necessary to make about eighteen miles of road, through a rough and a new country. Therefore, for the public good, and in some measure to relieve the Inhabitants of said town from the heavy burden of making and maintaining said road, they pray the Legislature to grant a tax of three cents on all the divided land in said town of Piercy and two cents on the undivided lands in said town (public rights excepted) for the purpose of making roads and bridges in said town, under such regulations as the legislature may see fit.
ORDERED , that the petitioners be heard on their petition before the General Court on the first Tuesday of their next session, and that the petitioners cause that the substance of the petition and order of Court thereon, be published in the New-Hampshire Gazette, three weeks successively, commencing eight weeks prior to said day of hearing, that any person or persons, may then appear, and show cause, if any they have, why the prayer may not be granted. Attest, JOHN A. HARPER, Clerk of the Senate. Concord, June 18, 1805.
State of New-Hampshire. PUBLIC NOTICE is hereby given, that the selectmen of Strafford have petitioned the General Court, representing that great advantages would arise from the opening of roads, in various parts of the uncultivated lands in said town, which would encourage the settlement, and increase the value thereof; and that a bridge across Connecticut river in said town, near the mills now existing, would greatly accommodate the public, as well as the inhabitants in the vicinity. Wherefore, they pray that the Legislature would grant a tax of three cents on each acre of land in said town (public rights excepted) to be appropriated to the uses aforesaid; one cent of which towards building said bridge, and two cents for the purpose of opening new roads and building bridges in the unsettled part of the town. Ordered, That the petitioners be heard on their petition before the General Court, on the first Tuesday of their next session, and that the petitioners cause that the substance of the petition and order of Court thereon, be published in the New-Hampshire Gazette three weeks successively, commencing eight weeks prior to said hearing, that any person or persons, may then appear and show cause, if any they have, why the prayer may not be granted. Attest, JOHN A. HARPER, Clerk of the Senate. Concord, June 19, 1805.

Imitated from the Greek of Theocritus.  DELIA, beautiful and young, Straying once the woods among, By a little bee was stung. She cried, and dance'd, and beat the ground, And press'd and suck'd the smarting wound. The nymph at length her lover spies, And sobbing, thus in anguish cries; "Is it not hard that little bees Should make such mighty wounds as these?" The lover smil'd, with downcast eyes, And sweetly wis'pring, thus replies: "Thou, my love, art like the bee, Sweets and stings unite in thee; "Thou art small, but well I know Thy wounds, sweet nymph, are seldom so."
AMUSING DEPARTMENT.
THE RESUSCITATION: FROM THE GERMAN.
THE sensations which a participation in acts of benevolence affords the human heart, is of a nature extremely grateful,—more especially when it is proved that those efforts have been fully answered. . . . Professor Junker, well known to possess no mean abilities in the Galen school, is an instance among others of the happiness derived from being engaged in works of mercy. A relation of the means pursued in snatching from perdition a fellow creature, and the consequent preservation of a valuable member of society, was communicated in substance, by the Professor to a foreigner of distinction, who, having obtained permission, gives it to the world.
Being Professor of Anatomy, he once procured for dissection, the bodies of two criminals, who had been hanged. The key of the dissecting room, not being immediately at hand when they were carried home to him, he ordered them to be laid down in a closet which opened in his own apartment; the evening came, and Junker, according to custom, proceeded to resume his literary labors, before he retired to rest. It was now near midnight, and all his family were asleep, when he heard a rumbling noise in his closet, thinking that by some mistake the cat had been shut up with the dead bodies, he rose and taking the candle, went to see what had happened.—But what must have been his astonishment, or rather his panic, on perceiving the sack, which contained the two bodies, was rent in the middle, he approached, and found one of them was gone. The doors and windows were well secured, and he thought it impossible the bodies could be stolen; he tremblingly looked round the closet, and observed the dead man seated in the corner. Junker stood, for a moment, motionless; the dead man seemed to look towards him; he moved, both to the right and left, but the dead man still kept his eyes on him. The Professor then retired, step by step, with his eyes still fixed on the object of his alarm; and holding the candle in his hand until he reached the door, the dead man instantly started up and followed him. A figure of so hideous an appearance, naked and in motion, the lateness of the hour, the deep silence which prevailed, every thing concurred to overwhelm him with confusion. He let fall the only candle which he had burning and all was darkness, he made his escape to his bed chamber, and threw himself on the bed; thither, however, he was pursued, and he soon felt the dead man embracing his legs, and loudly sobbing. Repeated cries of "leave me! leave me!" released Junker from the grasp of the dead man, who now exclaimed "Ah! good executioner! good executioner! have mercy upon me."—Junker soon perceived the cause of what had happened, and, resumed his fortitude. He informed the reanimated sufferer, who he really was, and made a motion in order to call up some of the family, "you with them to destroy me," exclaimed the criminal, "if you call any one, my adventure will become public, and I shall be taken a second time and executed, in the name of humanity, I implore you to save my life." The physician struck a light, decorated his guest with an old night gown, and having made him take a cordial requested to know what had brought him to the gibbet? The poor wretch informed him, that he had enlisted for a soldier, but that having no great attachment to the profession, he had determined to desert; that he had unfortunately entrusted his secret to a kind of crimp, a fellow of no principle, who recommended him to a woman, in whose house, he was to remain concealed; that this woman had discovered his retreat to the officer of police, &c. &c. Junker was extremely perplexed how to save the poor man; it was impossible to retain him in his own house and keep the affair a secret, and to turn him out of doors, was to expose him to certain destruction, he resolved to conduct him out of the city, in order that he might get into a foreign jurisdiction, but it was necessary to pass the gates of the city, which were strictly guarded; to accomplish this point, he dressed the man in some of his old clothes, covered him with a cloak, and at an early hour set out for the country with his protege behind him. On arriving at
the city gate where he was well known, he said in a hurrying tone, that he had been sent to visit a sick person who was dying in the suburbs. He was permitted to pass. Having both got into the open fields, the deserter threw himself at the feet of his deliverer, to whom he vowed eternal gratitude, and after receiving some pecuniary assistance, departed, offering up prayers for his happiness. Twelve years after, Junker having occasion to go to Amsterdam, was accosted on the exchange by a man well dressed and of the best appearance, who he had been informed was one of the most respectable merchants in that city. The merchant, in a polite tone, enquired whether he was Professor Junker of Hull, and on being answered in the affirmative, he requested in an earnest manner, his company to dinner, the professor consented. Having reached the merchant's house, he was shown into an elegant apartment, where he found a beautiful wife and two fine healthy children, but he could scarcely suppress his astonishment at meeting with so cordial a reception from a family with whom he thought he was entirely unacquainted. After dinner the merchant taking him into his counting-room, said, you do not recollect me—not at all—but I well recollect you, and never shall your features be erased from my memory. You are my benefactor. I am the person who came to life in your closet, and to whom you paid so much attention.—On parting from you I took the road to Holland. I wrote a good hand, and was tolerable expert at accounts, and I soon obtained employment as a clerk. My good conduct and zeal for the interest of my patron, procured me his confidence and his daughter's love. On his retiring from business, I succeeded him, and became his son-in-law.—But for you, however, I should not have lived to experience these enjoyments. Henceforth, look upon my house, my fortune, and myself at your disposal. Those who possess the smallest portion of sensibility, can easily represent to themselves the feelings of Junker.

PUBLIC NOTICE is hereby given, that Joseph Kimball and others, inhabitants of the township of WHITEFIELD in said State, have petitioned the General Court, representing "that the roads in said town are very bad, or in other words none at all; that the proprietors about three years ago, laid out a road from Lancaster to Bethlehem, nearly on one point, and through land too bad to be continued, and bush'd out said road, not a plough causwayed;—and all the road that is open in said town, is from the inhabitants of Whitefield to Bethlehem, and that done by the inhabitants of Whitefield, without the assistance of the proprietors." Wherefore they pray that the Legislature would grant a special tax of four cents per acre, on all the lands in Whitefield, (public lands excepted,) to be laid out on highways.
ORDERED by the Court, That the petitioners be heard on their petition before the General Court, on the first Tuesday of their next session, and that they cause that the substance of the petition and order of Court thereon, be published in the New-Hampshire Gazette, three weeks successively, the last publication to be six weeks prior to said hearing, that any person or persons may then appear, and shew cause, (if any they have) why the prayer may not be granted.
