MISCELLANY.
LIBERTY AND SLAVERY.
DISGUISE thyself as thou wilt, still Slavery! still thou art a bitter draught; and tho' thousands in all ages have been made to drink of thee, thou art no less bitter on that account. It is thou, Liberty, thrice sweet and gracious goddess, whom all in public or in private worship, whose taste is grateful, and ever will be so, till nature's self shall change—no tint of words can spot thy snowy mantle, or chymic power turn thy sceptre into iron—with thee to smile upon him as he eats his crust, the swain is happier than his monarch, from whose court thou art exiled.—Gracious Heaven! grant me but health, thou great bestower of it, and give me but this fair goddess as my companion; and shower down thy mitres, if it seems good unto thy divine providence, upon those heads which are aching for them.
Pursuing these ideas, I sat down close by my table, and leaning my head upon my hand, I began to figure to myself the miseries of confinement. I was in a right frame for it, and so I gave full scope to my imagination.
I was going to begin with the millions of my fellow creatures born to no inheritance but slavery; but finding, however affecting the picture was, that I could not bring it nearer me, and that the multitude of sad groupes in it did but distract me—
I took a single captive and having shut him up in his dungeon, I then looked through the twilight of his grated door to take his picture.
He was sitting upon the ground upon a little straw, in the furthest corner of his dungeon, which was alternately his chair and his bed: a little calender of small sticks were laid at the head notched all over with the dismal days and nights he had passed there—he had one of these little sticks in his hand, and with a rusty nail he was etching another day of misery to add to the heap. As I darkened the little light he had, he lifted up a hopeless eye towards the door, then cast it down—shook his head, and went on with his work of affliction. I heard his chains upon his legs, as he turned his body to lay his little stick upon the bundle—He gave a deep sigh—I saw the iron enter into his soul—I burst into tears—I could not sustain the picture of confinement which my fancy had drawn. STERNE.
From the National Intelligencer.
The contents of every mail we receive are charged with sentiments of indignation at the unjust treatment of our merchants and seamen by the belligerent powers. Without any pretext whatever, their ships of war are permitted with lawless violence, to seize the property of the honest trader: insult is frequently added to injury, and the civil authority, in numerous instances, justifies these outrages by a condemnation of ship and cargo. It is not surprising that a nation, whose rights are thus trampled upon, should demand redress; and such is the force of public opinion that we believe the period is approaching when this redress will be had, or those, of whom it is fruitlessly claimed, will be made to pay the cost. That governments whose vital interests depend upon a good understanding with us; nations whose colonies are at our mercy, and whose manufactures we can any moment paralyze; should be thus blind to their interests, is matter of supreme astonishment to us. But to them it cannot be surprising, if, in the just promotion of our interest, against lawless violence and meditated wrongs, we should aim a fatal blow at theirs.
What would England say to an imposition of heavy duties on all her manufactured fabrics, the want of which we could supply in other markets?—What would the say to refusing permission to any of her ships to enter our harbors?—What would she say to withholding all supplies from her islands?—What would the say to an embargo?—What would the say to a prohibition of all intercourse?
These are awful considerations; but we venture to predict that they will occupy the serious deliberations of Congress at the ensuing session. We venture to predict that every representative, from the east to the west, from the north to the south, will come armed with the resentment of his constituents against the invaders of our rights. The next is a new Congress. Its members may therefore be expected unequivocally to speak the language of the people. Pacific as is the disposition of America, it may be that the form will burst before foreign nations are aware of it.—But let them recollect that the thunder has long rolled at a distance; that they were long since warned of the danger of awakening the Lion. Let them recollect that at the last session, on the second of March, the following
resolutions were adopted by the Senate.
“Resolved, That the secretary of state be directed to lay before this House, at the next meeting of Congress, such laws of Great Britain, as impose any higher or greater duties on the exportation of goods, wares and merchandise to the United States, than are imposed on similar goods, wares and merchandise, when exported to the nations of Europe; and also to report the amount in sterling money, of the exports to the United States, from Great Britain and Ireland, for the years 1802, 1803, and 1804, on which such duties are charged.”
“Resolved, That the secretary of the treasury be directed to report to this House, at the next meeting of Congress, a statement, showing the value (agreeable to the prime cost) in sterling money, of Irish linens, and all other manufactures of linen, of sail duck, nails, hats, looking glasses, plated and glass wares, ribbons, silks of all kinds, printed linen and cotton; and the quantity of British salt and rum, imported into the United States, from Great Britain and her dependencies, during the years 1802, 1803 and 1804; and also the value of linens imported into the United States from all other foreign nations.”
During the ensuing session these reports will be made. Will they not furnish the materials for a just and honorable retaliation?
So comparatively invulnerable are the U. States with foreign powers, and so numerous are the weak points of the latter, that it is difficult to say what species of redress it becomes our government to take, in case remonstrance shall be unavailing. Such however, is the existing state of our foreign relations, that we think the subject to which we have alluded, well worthy of the public attention; and in order to throw light on them, we shall from time to time submit several interesting documents which time has, perhaps thrown in too deep an oblivion. They will generally speak for themselves without the aid of commentary.
It is perfectly recollected, that a fequestration of British debts is forbidden by the last of the ten perpetual articles of the British treaty. But it is supposed to be constitutional for Congress in certain cases to declare any treaty null and void, as in the case of the French treaty. Whether the capture of our vessels, condemnation of our property, and impairment of our seamen amount to violations, on the part of the British of that treaty, in letter or spirit, let other's determine. No doubt is entertained in our mind, that a perseverance in the conduct lately adopted by the English towards the Americans, will inevitably and as speedily as possible for our government to act, produce a change in the state of affairs between the two countries.—Bee.
VERMONT.—It has been stated in the federal papers, and some of the republican editors have copied the error, that the late election in this state evinced a great change in favor of federalism. The fact is, the assembly, council and lieutenant governor are decidedly republican; and the governor who has been re-elected six or eight years successively is a federalist.
The following is an extract of a speech of Governor Tichenor to the legislature of Vermont at the opening of the present session. The federalism which it evinces is worthy the imitation of men who have not had the opportunity to information possessed by the governor of a state, or who have not the candor to give to merit its due. We have not seen a more severe satire upon the maxims of our leading federal editors. Plebeian.
“It gives me great satisfaction to meet the representatives of the people, and concur with them in fulfilling the legislative duties, and discharging the important trusts which our constitutions have assigned to us; and this satisfaction is not a little heightened by contemplating on the general happiness & prosperity of our nation & government. While the fairest part of Europe continues to be the scene of “dreadful preparation” for war, and is menaced on all sides with those miseries which flow, from that greatest of all human calamities; we are pursuing with peaceful industry, those objects which constitute the strength, security, and glory of a wise and free people. Agriculture flourishes, and a genial soil and climate reward with abundance, the labours of that useful and respectable class of our fellow citizens, the farmer and the husbandman. The increase of commerce enhances the value of productive labor and the produce of the land. Manufactures daily improve; and the United States presents to the world, a fair specimen of the fruits of a mild and free government.”
It cannot but add to our joy, that the measures adopted by our general government, for checking the info-
lence, and repelling the injustice of one of its infidels of the Barbary states, have been attended with success. By the blessing of divine Providence, on the good conduct of our forces in the Mediterranean, seconded by the enterprise, talents, and heroism of General Eaton, our citizens have been released from captivity; Tripoli is humbled and those barbarians who have extorted an unwilling tribute from the most potent monarchs in Europe, taught that America is no less irresistible in arms, than just and conciliatory in peace.”
Late Foreign Intelligence.
VIENNA, Sept. 6.—We are assured that on the 10th his majesty the Emperor, and the commanding general officers will set out for their respective destinations.
HAGUE, Sept. 10.—For some time back the English blockading fleet off the Helder threw many impediments in the way of neutral vessels entering our ports, and especially to the vessels sailing under American colours.
PARIS, Sept. 15.—His majesty the Emperor and King, will set out for Straasburgh in two or three days; his serene highness Prince Murat, arrived there on the 10th.
Sept. 17.—Marshal Massena arrived at Milan, on the 7th of August, and the same day took upon him the command of the army of Italy.
LONDON, Sept. 18.—Last night Mr. Courvoisier arrived at the Secretary of State's Office with dispatches from St. Petersburg. Dispatches were at the same time received from Vienna. The contents of both are known to be important. The Earl of Weymouth was waiting to receive them, and on their arrival Lord Malgrave set off for Weymouth, to wait upon the King.
The precise nature of the dispatches has not transpired, but the report at Yarmouth were the packets landed the Messengers, was that Austria had actually published a manifesto stating the grounds on which she had herself necessitated to appeal to arms, as the only means left to her for maintaining her just rights and the integrity of her dominions, endangered and threatened by the lawless usurpations of the head of the French Government. A copy of this important State paper makes a part, it is said, of the dispatches that have been received.
High Court of Admiralty, Doctors Commons.—Tuesday the Right Hon. Sir W. Scott, proceeded to the adjudication of the following described ship and cargo:—
Eagle, Terry Master.—This was an American ship, laden with a cargo of coffee and sugar. Ship and part of the cargo restored, as claimed; the other part (which was taken in at the island of Guadalupe) was condemned on the ground of its being an exportation from the colony of the enemy to the mother country.
Sept. 19.—Private letters received by the mails yesterday, detail some interesting particulars that were but slightly mentioned in the printed journals.
The note transmitted by Bonaparte to the Emperor of Germany, concerning the military preparations in Austria, is reported to have been conceived in terms so amicable and respectful as to excite considerable surprise. There is, however, nothing surprising in this line of conduct. The object of the pretended attempt at a pacific negotiation, is merely to put the adversary in the wrong; for neither party can have the least hope of being able to accommodate their differences.
On the 22nd ult. there was a grand conference of state at Vienna, at which the Emperor presided in person. It lasted from four o'clock in the afternoon till very late at night. The following is a statement of the force of the Austrian armies, with their respective stations:—In Stiria, 30 battalions of infantry and 20 squadrons of cavalry; in Carinthia, 30 battalions of infantry and 20 squadrons of cavalry; in Italy, 50 battalions of infantry and two regiments of cavalry; at Venice, 25 battalions of infantry; in the Tyrol, 60 battalions of infantry, a corps of Tyrolese sharpshooters, and 1 regiment of cavalry; near Wells, 60 battalions of infantry, and seven regiments of cavalry; near Mintersdorf, 16 battalions of infantry and 5 regiments of cavalry.
The Russian army, at the date of the last official return, amounted to 508,230 men, exclusive of the invalids. The whole of the French army at present amounts to 593,588 men exclusive of the Gens d'armes, the National Guards, and the newly organized armies of the kingdom of Italy.
There will be, in the next campaign, the unexampled circumstance of three Emperors at the head of their armies. Bonaparte of course. But Francis II. heads his troops, it is said, on the German side; the Emperor Alexander will follow his troops to the aid of his brother of Austria. Thus eagle meets eagle in a conflict, than which the world never witnessed a more important, nor on the result of which greater events depended.
Vice-Admiral Rainer, just arrived from an eight years chief command in the East-Indies, is extremely corpulent, that it is with difficulty he feeds himself, and he sleeps always in an easy chair, instead of reposing on a bed, to prevent suffocation.
AMSTERDAM, Sept. 21.—Ninety-two thousand men from the coast, will have passed through Rheims before the end of the month. It is expected the Hungarian Division, which is to meet the 19th of October, will not only grant the Emperor 50,000 men, but also, a considerable sum of money. An army of 30,000 men is to be formed in Bohemia. The Russians were to arrive in Brunn on the 18th inst. The Austrian troops assembling on the Inn, are shortly to advance into Bavaria. At Göttingen 20,000 French troops are arrived from Hanover. Gen. Bernadotte is with them. It is said M. Bacher is to succeed M. Lafosse as French Imperial Ambassador at the court of Berlin. Several thousand horses have been lately employed in conveying every thing that is valuable at the court of Munich to Wurzburg.
GIBRALTAR, Oct. 6.—Letters from Spain state, that hostilities have begun in Italy, and that a battle had been fought at Verona, between the French, commanded by Marshal Massena, and the Austrians.—If this statement be true, we hope the event has proved unfavorable to our enemies, as the Spanish letters mention no particulars. It is added, some Imperial vessels have been carried into Algeziras, by French privateers; and it is a certain fact, that the ships of that nation (Imperial) now in the Bay, have been directed by their Consul not to sail until further orders.
A letter dated off Cadiz, Sept. 30, 1805, says—“Lord Nelson arrived here the 28th; his command extends through the Mediterranean to Cape St. Vincent. Admiral Duckworth and Thornborough are to come out. A squadron of six sail goes off Carthagena. Sir John Warren has a flying squadron between Finisterre and St. Vincent.”
BY THE LAST MAILS.
PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 15. Information is received by the ship Swift, arrived this morning from the Havanna, that before she left it, a Spanish frigate with 500 troops on board had failed from Pensacola.
PROPAGATION OF THE GOSPEL. To all who love the prosperity of Zion, and are disposed to aid in propagating the Gospel among the Heathen.
The subscriber, lately returning from a voyage to the East-Indies, touched in Europe, and was in London in August last, where he received from the Baptist Missionary Society in England for propagating the Gospel among the Heathen, one thousand guineas, to be sent in the spring, to the Missionaries in Bengal, for the purpose of printing the Sacred Scriptures in one of the languages of that country. There are seven languages that the Missionaries there, aim to translate and publish the Scriptures in: They have made such progress in three of them, that it is expected the above sum will enable them to complete the work. This money is now in the hands of Robert Ralston, Esq. of Philadelphia, who will forward it in due time. Should any individual, society, or congregation of people in the United States of America, be disposed to contribute to this good work, Mr. Ralston will gladly receive whatever may be sent to him for that purpose, and add to it the above sum to be forwarded to the Missionaries at Serampore, near Calcutta.

Willow Sugar.
A friend to agricultural improvements is desirous that some one of our farmers would make an experiment in manufacturing sugar from the sap of the Yellow Willow, and publish the result. During the last winter, two or three incisions were accidentally made in one of these trees: the next day it was perceived that the sap had oozed very copiously from the wounds and formed into large icicles. On tasting these icicles, they were perfectly sweet, and quite as agreeable to the palate as the sap of the sugar maple. The question then remains, whether a cheap sugar might not be obtained from the yellow willow, equally as wholesome and palatable as that wrought from the maple. The willow is thrifty, may be found in plenty, and can be cultivated with little trouble; while the maple is a long time in attaining its growth, and is every year becoming more scarce.
SPRINGFIELD, (CON.) NOV. 3. On Wednesday last the bridge over Connecticut river, in this town, was opened to the public, toll free for the day.—The collection of people was great; and an excellent discourse was delivered on the occasion, by the Rev. Dr. Lathrop of West-Springfield, to a crowded, yet highly gratified audience, at the meeting-house. From thence a procession was formed under the direction of the officers of the Corporation, and Lieut. Sweet, Commandant of the U. S. Artillerists stationed in this place, who acted as Marshal of the day with great propriety.
This Bridge is pronounced by Connoisseurs in architecture to be one of the best of its kind in America; combining in its appearance, elegance and neatness with strength and durability.
Its length is.....234 feet. Breadth.....30. Height from low water.....40. It consists of six arches supported by two abutments and five piers of stone—the piers 25 feet in height from low water mark—each in breadth 21 feet and in length up and down the stream 62 feet.—Each pier and abutment contains about 2000 tons of stone.
At the distance of 80 rods above the bridge, are erected two guard piers, or ice-breakers—the stone wrought into these when connected with those which are sunk about the piers of the bridge, for their security, and those contained in the piers and abutments themselves, make an aggregate of 18,000 tons.
The length of the curve of each arch, is 185 feet, the chord 180. This bridge is so constructed with frames upon each pier connected by long timbers with the arches, that the traveller passes over nearly the whole extent of it, on an elevated plain, affording a view of extensive landscape, in which are blended, well cultivated fields, pleasant villages, rivers and
meadows—lofty mountains, and indeed a wilderness and variety in the beauties of nature, which is highly gratifying to the eye.
BOSTON, NOV. 19.
Inland Navigation.—“A raft of 164 hlds. and 600 bbls. was formed at the head of Merrimac river, by Mr. Eben. Eastman, of Salisbury, N. H. and conducted down the river, thro' slips and over falls, to the head of Middlesex Canal—where 500 bbls. were taken into a boat and conveyed thro' the Canal to Charlestown—and the remainder, with 164 hlds. continued in a raft to West-Boston, where it was safely delivered to the order of Messrs. Goting and Lowell.”
NOVEMBER 23.
IMPORTANT ORDER.
We are assured, (says a Gibraltar paper of Oct. 5) that the following Order has been received by the Spanish Commandant of Marine, at Algeziras; communicated to him by his Excellency the Secretary of State and Marine, viz.
“Madrid, Sept. 3, 1805.”
“MOST EXCELLENT SIR, His Excellency, the Minister of the United States, has complained of new grievances and captures of American vessels by the Spanish privateers; and that eleven Americans have been carried into Algeziras under pretence as it is stated, that they were carrying English merchandise.—Which having been laid before his Majesty the King, he has been pleased to order, that, if there is no other motive for the capture of said vessels but the one alleged by the American Minister, they should be immediately liberated, as by the Fifteenth Article of the Treaty with the United States, the American flag covers the goods on board although they be enemies' property: But, have they been detained from any other motives, the suits are to be decided with the utmost dispatch, according to the established Laws—which I communicate to your Excellency, according to the Royal Order, that you may make it known to the Heads of Departments of the Navy, that they may communicate it to the Commandants of Marine and to the owners of Privateers, who, after receiving due notice shall be responsible for any injuries which may be sustained through them.”
We have just now been informed, that orders have been given by government for a detachment of marines to be in readiness to proceed to New-Orleans without delay. And that the N. Orleans, station will be guarded by a number of gun boats.—Wash. Fed.
DECLARATION OF WAR.
The ship Swift, arrived at N. York on Sunday last, in 40 days from Bordeaux, brings Paris news to the second of Oct. containing the important intelligence of the Emperor of the French having declared war against Russia and Austria:—This event took place about the end of September.
In the ship William Penn, which arrived in Hampton Roads on the 4th inst. came passenger Fulwar Skipwith, Esq. Consul Gen. for the U. States at Paris, who reached this city on Friday night. He is on his way to Washington, charged with important communications to the government. On the subject of our relations with Spain and her ally France, Mr. Skipwith has hitherto preferred a studied and prudent silence. The Norfolk papers indeed presume to say though without any authority from Mr. S. that “no hope of accommodation of our differences with that nation now remains.”
Were we disposed to express our own opinion on a subject so completely wrapped up in the mazes of diplomacy, it would be, that very little progress has been made in the negotiation at Madrid since Mr. Munroe left that city, as no minister plenipotentiary has been there since his departure; that the seat of diplomatic skill has been in all probability transferred to Paris; that the original grounds of the negotiation have been altered by new propositions, and that it would not be a subject of great surprise to us, if the cession of the Floridas, had been thrown into the mass of propositions. Richmond Enquirer.
Madame Jerome Bonaparte and child, have arrived at Baltimore, in 42 days from London.
KEENE, (N. H.) NOV. 16.
FIRE!
On Wednesday morning last, about four o'clock, the Oil Mill of Samuel Smith, Esq. of Peterborough, was discovered to be on fire. Such was the progress of the flame, aided probably by the materials in the Mill, before it was discovered, that all attempts even to save any part of the property, were useless. We understand, that a considerable quantity of stock was on hand, of oil and flax seed.—The loss must be very considerable; besides, the damage to the proprietor, from suspending the manufacture.

Portsmouth, TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 26, 1805.
FOREIGN. THE latest advices from EUROPE, are very interesting. It now officially appears, from the Speech of Bonaparte to the French Senate, that hostilities have actually commenced on the part of Germany, without any formal declaration of war.
BONAPARTE'S SPEECH. PARIS, SEPT. 28. On the 21st inst. the Emperor met the Legislative Senate; and delivered the following most gracious speech from the throne:
SENATORS! IN the present circumstances of Europe, I feel the necessity of appearing in the midst of you, and of making known to you my sentiments.
"I am about to quit my capital to put myself at the head of my army, to carry a speedy succour to my allies and to defend the dearest interests of my people."
"The wishes of the eternal enemies of the continent are accomplished; War has begun in the heart of Germany. Austria and Russia have united with England; and our generation is drawn anew into all the calamities of war."
"It is at this instant that the wickedness of the enemies of the continent has unveiled itself. They were yet apprehensive of the manifestation of my profound love of peace; they were apprehensive lest Austria, at the sight of the abyss which they had dug under her footsteps, should return to sentiments of justice and moderation; they have hurried her into war."
"Senators, when at your desire, at the voice of the whole French people, I set the Imperial crown upon my head, I received from you, from every citizen, the engagement to maintain it pure and unspotted."
"Magistrates, Soldiers, and Citizens, all with to maintain the country free from the influence of England, who, if she prevailed, would grant us only a peace surrounded with ignominy and shame, and the principal conditions of which would be the burning of our fleets, the filling up our ports, and the annihilation of our industry."
"All the promises I have made to the French people, I have kept. The French people, in their turn, have taken no engagement with me that they have not fulfilled. In this circumstance so important for their glory and mine, they will continue to merit that name of Great People with which I saluted them in the midst of the fields of battle."
"Frenchmen, your Emperor will do his duty, my soldiers will do theirs, you will do yours."
BRITISH CONVOT TAKEN. Our last English papers report, that the French Rochfort Squadron of five sail of the line, in lat. 49, long. 9, fell in with an English East India fleet from St. Helena, of four extra ships, and three whalers, convoyed by the Calcutta of 50 guns; which, including the Calcutta, were all captured, excepting the African: a whaler. The Hadock sloop of war fell in with the fleet, during the action; and immediately proceeded off Ushant to inform Lord Cornwallis of the news; that squadrons might be sent to intercept them. There were also fears, that a part of the English West-India fleet, of 300 sail, from Tortola, had also been fallen in with by this squadron; but Captain Lewis from Liverpool, informs us, that Oct. 11, off Cape-Clear he fell in with about 19 sail of English ships of war, and on the same evening with about three hundred sail of English merchantmen, supposed to be the homeward-bound West-India fleet.
The French squadron, under the command of Jerome Bonaparte, has effected the liberation from Algerine captivity of 231 slaves, principally natives of Laguita, some of whom had been upwards of twenty years in the power of the Regency, and who are claimed as French subjects by virtue of the union between France and the Laguitian Republic.
The ship Swift, Capt. Murphy, arrived yesterday morning at Sandy Hook in 40 days from Bourdeaux. By this arrival Paris papers to the 28th Sept. and Bourdeaux papers to the 2d of Oct. were received. We have in our possession (says the Mercantile Advertiser) the counter declaration of the Emperor of Germany and the manifesto of Russia, on the subject of the dispute with France, which it appears has terminated in the actual commencement of hostilities on the part of Germany, without any formal declaration of war.
The Federal Gazettes will do well to tell us the reasons of the condemnations of the ships Indus at Halifax, the Hazard at Jamaica, and the brig Essex in London. Were they condemned because our government is weak? Or were they not seized on the high seas because their cargoes were valuable? Here was two hundred thousand dollars, at least, plundered from our merchants by the Government of a nation, whose Constitution, Mr. Adams says, is "the most stupendous fabric of human invention," not without every reader knows it has no written constitution. But to return to the captures—Why does the English Government adjudicate American vessels? Is it friendly disposed towards us? This may well be questioned—If it were, its friendship would be exhibited by a very different conduct. Can it controul its cruisers and courts of admiralty? Surely it can at a word. A letter or order from the British Government to their Judges abroad, or to the captains of their men of war, directing them to desist in capturing or adjudicating American vessels, would instantly command attention. But will this be done? Perhaps not, may be answered; so long as Britain expects the support of Austria and Russia in carrying on the war against France. And must America fit tamely and bear these insults? No! No! is the reply of every independent American. And will War be the consequence? It is to be hoped not, is answered. And can we redress these wrongs without resorting to war? We can—but time must be given to the Government to accomplish its intentions. Congress, it is said, will be in session on the 2d of Dec. The President may be expected to notice the British seizures. The subject will be then fairly before the nation. The Merchants have probably stated their losses to Government, and if not, it ought to be done immediately. The amount will be known. Redress can be had several ways. Sequestration of British debts may be resorted to, as the means of reimbursing our merchants for their losses. Prohibition of commercial intercourse with Britain and her colonies, or with her colonies alone, may become necessary. Canada may be taken into possession, and held as a guarantee for the payment of the plundered property. And will not Britain resent all this? asks the poor frightened partisan of England. It is answered No. If she is really pacifically disposed towards us, she will not resent it; and if she does, and war follows, she must blame herself, and tax her mad folly and fiendlike ambition, for the loss of a valuable province, immense commercial capital, and the unborrowed amity of a nation whose Government has never injured her, in one single act, since the Treaty of peace of 1783.—(Salem Register.)
IMPRESSED SEAMEN. Our federal brethren of the type have weekly and daily been sounding in our ears, the distresses and hardships of our citizens lately released from Tripolitan captivity. The whole American people commiserated their sufferings, and our government embraced the first opportunity that presented, of restoring them to liberty and their country. But there is another class of our citizens, whose sufferings have been equally great, and whose bondage has been more durable, for whole liberation the pens of their editors is seldom employed—for whom federal sympathy but seldom drops the tear—We allude to about 2000 of our citizens who have been impressed on board British prison ships, or vessels of war. We rejoice at the prospect of our government taking effectual measures to restore to their country this valuable class of citizens.—Plebian.
Yesterday came up from the Congress Frigate, in Hampton Roads, His Excellency Said Solymán Melimeli, Ambassador from the Bey of Tunis to the United States, attended by his two Secretaries. They visited Fort Nelson on their way up, by which they were saluted upon landing. Afterwards they proceeded to town, and dined with a select party at Baibridge's hotel, accompanied also by Capt. Decatur and several of his officers. In the evening, the Mayor and several respectable gentlemen of the town, visited the Ambassador, to whom they were presented by Capt. Decatur, and this morning accompanied by his Secretaries, he returned the visit of the Mayor and some other gentlemen. We do not know when they leave town, but understand they only wait for a fair wind to proceed in the frigate to Washington. The novelty of their appearance, and their magnificent costume in the true Turkish style, attracted more attention than composed with good breeding, they did not however appear displeased, but seemed to attribute it to a right cause. The Ambassador appears turned of 50 years of age, of a grave and dignified deportment. [Norfolk Ledger.]
Singular Trial.—A case was decided by the jury at the last session of the Superior Court in Keene, N. H. which excited considerable interest, wherein a woman, the mother of "ten children and one at the breast," was indicted for the crime of adultery. The jury brought her in guilty, upon the evidence; but such was the impression upon the Court and spectators, that on a motion for a new trial, the Court freely declared they were not satisfied with the verdict, and suspended judgment until next term.
Domenick Daley and James Hallagan, two men lately from Ireland, and lately resident in Boston, were taken in the state of New-York and brought back to the county of Hampshire, and committed on the 15th instant, on suspicion of being the Murderers of Marcus Lyon, who was killed at Wilbraham on the night of the 9th. Hallagan says he has lived with Madam Sumner—Daley says he came into the country in March last, and has resided in the works at South-Boston, in the last summer. They say they have lived this fall in Exchange Alley.—They were apprehended fifty miles beyond New-Haven. Boston paper.
A writer in the "Witness," examining the votes of Connecticut, observes, "In casting up the votes for the nomination, we find that in 1804, the average federal majority was 4544.—In 1805, the average federal majority is 2043. A diminution of federal majority in one year, of 1601. The writer observes, "Two more such defeats will sink republicanism into a minority."

DIED. In Newburyport, Mr. OBADIAH SHORT, Æt. 27.—Alas, how temporary and fleeting is the fabric of human expectations and enjoyments!—In our last paper we announced the marriage of this young man—in the next—his death! But four days ago he paid his oblations at the temple of hymen—he has now sacrificed his earthly all, at the shrine of the King of terrors.—Mysterious are the ways of Heaven! [N. Paper.] At Newmarket Mr. PETER EAMES, Æt. 90.—Mrs. GILMAN, wife of Warren G. In this town, on Thursday evening last, Mr. JOHN HAMILTON (m.r.) Æt. 28.—A child of Mr. Clark, Æt. 3.—A child of Mr. Barnard.

FROM THE EVENING FIRE-SIDE.  TODAY AND TO-MORROW. To-day the Sun with cloudless ray, Beams joy and happiness around; To-morrow winds tempestuous play, And fret adorns the frozen ground. Such is the doom to man assign'd; Such are the changes of the mind. To-day the genial zephyrs breathe, The fragrance of the opening year; To-morrow sees the barren heath, And vegetation disappear. Such is the fate of human kind, Such are the changes of the mind. To-day the Sun of Pleasure smiles, Youth, Joy and Beauty, deck the scenes; The magic wand of Hope beguiles, And not a dark cloud intervenes; Such is the view to youth assign'd, Such the delusions of the mind. To-morrow disappointment lowers, Care's canker gnaws the aching breast, Regret each passing moment lours, Or Sorrow rears her gorgon crest; Such is the doom to man assign'd; Such are the changes of the mind. To-day deceitful Fortune wears, The gladdening smile of Joy and Peace; We seek not sorrow's hidden Snares, That soon may bid our pleasures cease; Our prospects fair and unconfined Yield sweet contentment to the mind. To-morrow wears another face; And dark'ning clouds obscure the view; In vain the past scenes we retrace, Or strive the future to pursue; But dreary are the thoughts assign'd, To occupy the gloomy mind. To-day then let us all prepare, For what the morrow may produce; To-morrow be our chiefest care, To put each hour to proper use; Move in the sphere by Heaven design'd, And regulate the wandering mind.  LYRICUS.
Milton has the following remarks upon Mispent Time:—"Hours have wings, and fly up to the Author of time, and carry news of our usage. All our prayers cannot intreat one of them either to return or slacken his pace: The mispence of every minute is a new record against us in Heaven. Sure, if we thought thus, we should dismiss them with better report, and not suffer them to go away empty, or laden with dangerous intelligence! How happy is it, that every hour should convey up, not only the message, but the fruits of good, and stay with the Antient of Days, to speak for us before his glorious throne."
Doctor Jenner, to whom we owe the discovery of the vaccine as a preservative from the small pox, is employed at this time, says one of our periodical papers, in preparing for publication a large work, in which he endeavors to prove, that the vaccine is not only a preservative from the small pox, but further, that the children of a father and mother who have been vaccinated are not liable to that disorder. He has satisfied himself that the vaccine will not act on the small number of children that he has seen, that were the issue of a father and mother who were vaccinated.
According to accounts which Dr. De Carr of Vienna has received from the East Indies, no less than 145,840 persons have been vaccinated there between the 1st of September 1805, and the 30th April, 1804. The Rajah of Tangore is a zealous supporter of vaccination; and the Dewan of Travancore has himself submitted to the operation. Among the vaccinated persons were 4141 Brahmins, 41,805 Malabars, and 10,926 Mahometans.
A Newbury-port paper mentions the exhibition in their market, of a Pear, weighing 1lb. 12 oz. measuring six inches in length, and 14 in circumference—and a Beet, weighing fifteen pounds.

ALL persons having claims on the estate of Doctor JOSHUA BRACKETT Physician; or on the estate of HANNAH BRACKETT widow, late of Portsmouth, deceased, are desired to exhibit the same to the subscriber for payment—and those who are indebted to said estate, are requested to make payment without delay to  J.

THE subscriber would have come forward ere this time to have told the public what new things he has been adding to his former stock, but being fearful his advertisement would get buried up among the Goods and Gazettes of the new cheap stores, or the clashing advertisements of the real importer, and new dealer, he thought best to postpone his advertisement until the above had a little subsided. He now presumes to tell the public, that he is ready to furnish them with substantials for the mind, as he has this fall added to his former stock, upwards of 7,000 VOLUMES OF BOOKS , in the various branches of knowledge and polite literature. It would be vain to attempt to particularize them for a newspaper advertisement, as the titles of them, would make a volume of themselves of 100 pages. Suffice it to say, he is now compiling his catalogue, and he is determined to sell in future as cheap as can be purchased in Boston or elsewhere, with a handsome discount to purchasers of libraries, or to those who purchase to sell again. He has also imported,

Account and Record Books, of almost every size, price, and description, cheaper than the paper can be bought of the same goodness, and a single book be made. Almanacs & Registers for 1806.
