POLITICAL MISCELLANY.
THOMAS PAINE, TO THE CITIZENS OF THE UNITED STATES. LETTER THE EIGHTH.
MUCH has been said, and much remains to be said, of that undescribed and undefinable nothing , called federalism. It is a word without a meaning, and designates a faction that has no principles. Ask a man who calls himself a federalist, what federalism is? and he cannot tell you. Ask him, what are its principles? and he has none to give. Federalism, then, with respect to government, is similar to atheism with respect to religion, a nominal nothing without principles. The federal papers, especially those of N. England, have often said that " religion and federalism must go together ." But if their religion is related to their federalism; if it is as destitute of morals as their federalism is of principles; and I fear it is; it will do them no good in this world or the next. It will condemn them as impostors and hypocrites in both.
Those who once figured as leaders under the assumed and fraudulent name of federalism , (but who are since gone, not into honorable and peaceful retirement, like John Dickenson and Charles Thompson,* but into obscurity and oblivion, like John Adams and John Jay) had some plans in contemplation which they concealed from their deluded adherents, but those plans can be discovered through the gauzy, but clumsy veil of conduct those leaders adopted. " No cover is large enough to hide itself ," says the Spanish proverb.
It requires more artifice and management to disguise and conceal sinister designs than schemers are aware of. A man never turns a rogue but he turns a fool. He incautiously lets out something by which those he intended to cheat or impose upon begin to find him out. Whereas truth is a straight forward thing, even an ignorant man will not blunder in a true story—nor can an artful man keep a false story straight.
But those leaders supposing themselves in a higher position than what common observation would reach, presumed, on their supposed consequence and the expected credulity of their adherents, to impose on the nation by clamorous and false pretences, for the purpose of raising a standing army of fifty thousand men; and when they had got that army, the mass would have been thrown off, and their deluded adherents would have paid the price of their duplicity by being enslaved.
But in the midst of this career of delusion and imposition, those leaders became fools. They did every thing they ought not to have done. They advocated plans which showed that their intention and their cause were not good. They laboured to provoke war. They opposed every thing which led to peace. They loaded the country with vexatious and unnecessary taxes, and then opposed the reduction of them. They opposed a reduction of useless offices that served no other purpose than to maintain their own partisans at the expense of the public. In short they run themselves a-ground, first, by their extravagance and next by their folly. Blinded by their own vanity, and though bewildered in the wilderness of their own projects, they foolishly supposed themselves above detection. They had neither sense enough to know, nor logic enough to perceive, that as we can reason upward from cause to effect, so also can we reason downward from effect to cause, and discover by the means they make use of, the motives and object of any party; for when the means are bad, the motive and the end to be obtained cannot be good.
The manners also, and language of any party is another clue that leads to a discovery of their real characters. When the cause and principles of a party are good its advocates make use of reason, argument and good language. Truth can derive no advantage from boisterous vulgarity. But when the motives and principles of a party are bad, it is necessary to conceal them; and its abettors having principles they dare to acknowledge and cannot defend, avoid every thing of argument, and take refuge in abuse and falsehood.
The federal papers are an instance of the justness of this remark. Their pages are croud with abuse, but never with argument; for they have no principles to argue from: and as to falsehood it is become so naturally their mother tongue, especially in N. England, that they seem to have lost the power as well as the disposition, of speaking the truth. Those papers have been of great aid to the republican cause, not only by the additional disgrace they have brought on their own disgraceful faction, but by serving as a foil to set off, with greater eclat, the decency and well principled arguments of the republican papers. I have had some experience; perhaps as much as most men have had in the various turns of life, but I never saw a greater set of fools undertake to conduct a party than the leaders of the federalists have been, and the editors of their papers. They correspond to the story told of a man who was become so proud and famous for lying that he disdained speaking truth lest he should lose his character.
Cannot those stupid people see, or, according to some dogmas of their own, are their hearts hardened, that they shall not see, that the more vulgar and abusive they are, the more ground they lose in the estimation of the public? Every election especially, in New-England, is wearing them down, till they will be lost even as a faction, and Massachusetts and Connecticut will recover their former character. Every thing this faction does hastens its exit. The abusive vulgarity of Hulbert, a pettifogging attorney of Sheffield, in Massachusetts, and one of its legislators, has contributed to bring forward the funeral. In his late unprincipled speech in the legislature of that state, he has driven another nail in the coffin of the federal faction, and I leave it to the New-England Palladium to clinch it. It is a paper worthy of being the bufoon of such a faction, and of such an hypocritical impostor. Thus much for the character of parties, and the method of ascertaining their motives and objects. I now proceed to other matters.
When I returned to America in November 1802, (after an absence of more than fourteen years) I found the country in a state of disquietude. The people were divided into two classes, under the names of republicans and federalists, and in point of numbers appeared to be nearly balanced. The republicans were the majority in congress, and all the administration were of that description; but they were assailed with outrageous abuse in all the federal papers, but never by argument. I am enough acquainted with life and the world, to know, that abuse is the evidence of want of argument, and that those who use it, have not right on their side. There is a dignified calmness in conscious rectitude which descends not to abuse. It can reason but it cannot rage. It cannot quit the strong fortress of rectitude to skirmish in the fields of vulgarity.
It was not difficult to perceive that this division and agitation arose from some reports spread during the administration of John Adams, and in the latter time of General Washington, which one part of the people believed, and the other did not; and the point to be ascertained was, whether those reports were true or false. If either of those cases could be ascertained effectually, it would unite the people. The chief of those reports was, the danger of an invasion from France and this was made a cause for borrowing, by loan, five millions of dollars, at the high rate of eight per cent. laying on a land tax of two million dollars annually; besides a great number of other taxes; and for raising a standing army of fifty thousand men.
Now if the danger was real, it ought to have been provided against. If it was a fiction, with the design of raising an army to be employed to accomplish some concealed purpose, the country ought to be informed of it. The party filing themselves federalists appeared to believe the danger, and the republicans to ridicule it as fabulous; and in this state the parties stood. It was, however, equally the interest of both, to know the truth; on which ever side the truth might fall.

From the Chronicle.
A British Party—There can be no question but there is in this country a party who are blindly prejudiced in favor of the British system of government, and this party stile themselves federalists, and under the administration of Mr. Adams, faithfully imitated the measures of that corrupt nation; our financial system was modelled after the form of the British; the taxes, the loans, the army establishment, and the sedition law were humble imitations of British measures.—Terror, the governing principle of monarchy, it has been attempted to establish in the place of that virtuous attachment which flows from a just confidence in the constituted authorities, the moment of our rupture with France, was seized with avidity by the tory-federalists to carry into effect their nefarious measures.
The most indecent and arbitrary attempts were made to intimidate the public sentiment, the tories in all parts of the union emerged from their political dormancy and stepped forward as the violent and rancorous champions of federalism. The BLACK-COCKADE was adopted as the badge of patriotism, and whoever refused to wear it, was viewed with a jealous and suspicious eye. Nightly patrols of the friends of order , bawling, "Hail Columbia happy land" assailed the ears and disturbed the repose of the citizens, and frequently were some of our most virtuous revolutionary characters insulted. Mr. Adams by his answers to addresses, as well as by his official conduct, in the distribution of offices, tended to encrease the flame. The alien law, the sedition law, and the standing army were all engines of terror, calculated to crush the republican spirit of the country. But thank heaven the enormity of these measures was too palpable to escape the public execration. Good men lamented the infatuation of the people. The event has fully justified their calculations, and the whole fabric of federal aristocracy is tumbling into ruins. L.
When Mr. Jefferson, in his first inaugural speech, expressed his wish to restore "harmony to social intercourse," the federalists believed, or affected to believe, that he meant to bring about this harmony by humouring them in all their extravagant desires. "O yes, we will have harmony," said they—and began to snicker to think how the Democrats were cheated in supporting a President who was going to be so tender to the feds—directly some federal delinquent is removed from office—away goes the harmonizing spirit of the feds—calumny, abuse, blackguardism, are let loose in torrents, and poor harmony is scouted from the field—but why don't you harmonize? say the republicans—harmonize indeed! reply the feds—do ye think we'll harmonize for nothing when the mild conciliating language of our democratic president reached our ears,—we were agreeably surprised, and at once concluded you had got bit—and that we were to have not only all the offices we were then in possession of, but all the new appointments; and that even republicans would be ousted to make room for us—then, indeed, we were willing to harmonize—but, as these are the only terms on which we will harmonize with any administration—and as we have been disappointed, in not getting all the offices in our hands—away with your harmony! If the mouths and pens of the feds do not give this language, their actions do.—Their sudden and wonderful turn in favor of Mr. Jefferson, when they thought he would keep them in office, notwithstanding they had constantly represented him as the worst man in the universe, who would ruin the country if he was elected, proves incontestibly the fact—that as they would support any man or any principles which gave them profit and power; so they would oppose any which withheld these from them. (Con. Repub. Farmer.)
What good can the confederated slanderers of Mr. Jefferson, and the national government, any longer flatter themselves that they can do to any cause they espouse? Do they not perceive that, although they may for a while be writing themselves up, they are writing their own cause down? and do they not see that their cause is sinking under them; and that like rats, tho' they fatten while they know through the vessels side, they also must become the victims of that ruin which they seek to bring upon others in common with themselves?

FOREIGN ARTICLES.
By the ship John Morgan, HOWARD, arrived at New-York, from Liverpool. LONDON DATES TO MAY 1, 1805.
LONDON, APRIL 26, 1805.—We have received Dutch Papers to a late date. From the statements they give, it would appear that great activity prevails in the ports of Holland, and the expedition against this country is again spoken of as an event that will shortly take place. Three ships of the line have been equipped and put in commission.—A new 74 gun ship, named the Regulus, has been launched at L'Orient on the 19th instant.
APRIL 29.—A delegation from the town of Liverpool has prevailed upon the Lords of the Treasury to put that port upon the same footing as the port of London, in regard to the Warehousing system, without requiring new docks or warehouses to be constructed for that purpose. Thirty four warehouses, which have been tendered, are to be immediately licensed.
APRIL 30.—The nomination of Sir Charles Middleton to the post of first Lord of the Admiralty, was announced to the House of Commons yesterday by Mr. Pitt, and will be in this night's Gazette.
MAY 1.—We are at length enabled to lay before our readers authentic information respecting the French fleet which escaped from Toulon. It consisted, as we before stated, of 11 sail of the line, 7 frigates and 4 corvettes; they passed the Straights of Gibraltar on the 9th ult. and immediately bore up for Cadiz, before which Sir John Orde was cruising. When Sir John first received intelligence of their approach his squadron was busy in overhauling their rigging and had their topmasts struck and their yards down to have it all new set; but such was the dispatch used to put the squadron in a state to meet the enemy, that in four hours it was in perfect order. The French admiral did not, however, think it advisable to attack Sir John, notwithstanding his great superiority of force for the British squadron only consisted of 6 sail of the line and a frigates, and had also the disadvantage of being the disadvantage of being incompumbered with transports. The French fleet stood directly into Cadiz where it remained when the last dispatches were sent off.
The Commons have directed a civil prosecution to be commenced against Lord Melville and Mr. Trotter, for the profit of public monies entrusted to them.
To-morrow Mr. Whitebread will bring forward his motion for an Address to his Majesty, to invest his Majesty to erase the name of Lord Melville from the List of Privy Counsellors.
Seven Ships, or Gun Boats, have been cut off and captured on their passage from the Eastward to Boulogne; they were fully manned and armed.
The grand Expedition, which failed on 20th April has most certainly gone up the Mediterranean.
A bill has passed Parliament to permit the importation of Goods and Commodities from countries in America belonging to any Foreign European or State, in neutral ships, during the present war, and until six months after peace shall be ratified.
From the London Gazette, April 26.
The king has been pleased to cause it to be signified by the right Hon. Lord Mulgrave, his Majesty's Principal Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, to the Ministers of neutral powers residing at this Court, that the necessary measures have been taken, by his Majesty's command, for the blockade of the ports of Cadiz and at Lucar; and that from this time, all the measures authorised by the laws of nations and the respective treaties between his Majesty and the different neutral powers, will be adopted and executed with respect to vessels which may attempt to violate the said blockade.
FALMOUTH, APRIL 22.—Arrived last evening, the American brig Rising Sun, Capt. Gould from the Isle of France, with cotton, &c. for orders: she has been 120 days from thence and from the Cape 63 days; sailed from the Isle of France in company with the French ship Charles, Morris, with coffee, &c. for Bordeaux. The Rising Sun, of 84 guns had got on shore in going into the Isle of France, and received considerable damage. Lincoln had carried in there the Princess Charlotte and 18 Country ships (prizes.) Mr. Mansfield, an Officer of this Vessel, came passenger in the Rising Sun:—The Capt. and crew, are on their parole at the Isle of France, and expect to be sent home by the first vessel.
The New-York papers say, a gentleman who came passenger in the brig Alliance, from Nantes, has communicated the following articles of information, collected during his stay in port:
The emperor left Paris for Milton on the 28th March, to be crowned King of Italy, which ceremony was to take place the 26th May. Previous to the setting out, he was pleased to order the long-pending American claims to be closed, reserving three millions of livres to be applied to the settlement of any claim not yet substantiated. In consequence thereof, the minister of the United States had notified the American claimants that he was ready to draw on the American Government for the amount of their respective awards, in such sums as they should choose, and in francs.
BY THE LAST MAILS.
Extract of a letter from a gentleman of respectability, residing at St. Louis, to the editor of the Kentucky Gazette, dated, St. Louis, April 22.
"We have had a considerable alarm about the Sac Indians, one of which nation we have here in jail for murder.—About one hundred of this nation are now here—the rumor of their coming preceded them, and made them five hundred. We were in considerable alarm, and the people here turned out with an alacrity that does them credit. However the Indians are arrived at council, that they came to demand their prisoner; but hearing on their way, that he had stabbed the corporal of the guard (which was the case) they said they would leave it to the generosity of their fathers to give him up or not. We had a new alarm yesterday; a report came from St. Charles, which at first seemed probable, that 500 were seen descending the Mississippi; but it was those very Indians who are now here, that were seen several days before.
"There have been three murders committed here within these three months, and all by Americans. There are two of the murderers now here in jail.
"The house of Pierre Chouteau, esq. has been burned down on the ground in less than two hours—it happened in January. It was the best furnished house on this side the Allegany mountains—his loss must amount to 30,000 dollars, for he lost every thing. It is certainly a public calamity—the owner is a generous worthy man.
"We last night received the news of gen. Wilkinson being our governor. From his general character, I should suppose him well calculated for the task, and by taking the proper steps in the beginning, which I have no doubt he will do, he will find the old inhabitants of this country the most honest, the most docile and easy governed people in the world, provided only he gains their confidence in the beginning. There are a few here, and in several parts of the district; some late comers, and some others who lived here under the Spanish government, which in fact, loaded them with kindness—these persons have become clamorous. All they want is the loaves and fishes. These persons are held in horror and contempt by all the old inhabitants. They are but very few; and should the governor, on his arrival give them any footing or encouragement, he will injure himself, and do the U. States a dis-service.
"It was a most fortunate circumstance for the inhabitants of this country, and for the United States that such men as Capt. Stoddart and gov. Harrison, were at hand, to act in this district—They have deservedly gained the esteem of the inhabitants.
NEWBURGH, JUNE 10.
We are informed, by a gentleman who passed through Westchester county last week, that the following very singular occurrence, which happened a few days before, was related to him by a Mr. Cutler, innkeeper, residing at Tarrytown, and from our knowledge of the person who informed us, and the person who related it to him, however much we are inclined to doubt, yet we believe there is, at least some foundation for the following: We however, lay it before our readers in the manner it was related by our informant, who authorised us to make it public.
A person, (whose name our informant had forgot) living near Tarrytown, having occasion to go to the river, to bring up some tubs, pails, &c. which had been sent to New York with butter; on his return got two jugs—one of which he filled with molasses and the other with rum, and put them together with his tubs, pails, &c. into his waggon to return home, after dark in the evening. After going a mile or two on his way back, he perceived two black dogs keeping constantly by the side of his waggon, and running under the feet of his horses. At about ten o'clock he stopped at Mr. Cutler's Inn, and informed him, to use his own words, that "two damn'd black dogs had followed him thither, and that they were troublesome to him." Mr. Cutler took but little notice of it, and he soon after went out to his waggon to go to his own house, which was not far off. Shortly after one of his neighbours was alarmed by horses running past his door, apparently, by the noise, with harness and traces on them: and knowing that this person had went down to the river that afternoon, he suspected they might be his horses, which had got frightened & ran away—he immediately went over and awakened the family, got a candle and lantern, and found the horses by the barn. They then returned to look after the unfortunate man, whom they found with his face in the dirt, several yards before his waggon, and his scalp almost torn off, but was
sticking to his head by a small piece of skin—all the wheels taken off and lay together with the linch pins, studded in a heap—the jugs of molasses and rum put under the fence some distance off; excepting which every other article remained in the state in which they were put in the waggon. The man was taken up in a state of insensibility, and conveyed to his own house; signs of life were perceived and medical aid instantly procured, but the physician gave but little hope of his recovery. The next day, he, however, recovered his senses and his speech, but all the information he could give was, that those two black dogs, after he left Mr. Cutler's inn, still accompanied him, one of which jumped into his waggon and clapt his paw on his head, which was all he could recollect. He seemed to regain strength, and the physician then informed his patient that he had no doubt but he would get well; "Do you think so," replied the man with a smile, and shortly after expired.
FRENCH FLEET.
NEW-YORK, JUNE 14.
Capt. Hatch, who arrived yesterday at quarantine in 15 days from St Bartholomews, confirms the intelligence of the combined French and Spanish fleets having arrived at Martinique. He adds, that a French frigate was taking sounding at St. Lucia, preparatory, as it was supposed, to an attack; and that a general embargo had been laid on all the shipping in the French West-India islands.
Extract of a letter received by the Sloop Dove, from a merchant at St. Bartholomews, dated May 28.
"Gaudaloupe has been embargoed these ten days, in consequence of the arrival of another French squadron, with a strong armed force. They have just commenced active operations, which appear, by a vessel arrived here from St. Lucie yesterday, first to be directed against that island. As there is at present no English force in this country to cope with them, it is generally believed that they will attempt the whole English Colonies.—The embargo is at present general in all the islands; and under the circumstances mentioned, it may be expected to remain for some time.
Captain Newell, who arrived at Charleston in 18 days from Falmouth, Jam. informs, that intelligence of the Toulon fleet had been received at Jamaica; that Martial Law took place on the same day; that on the day following it was intended to lay an embargo on all the vessels in the different ports of the island.
The Attorney General of this state, on Tuesday last, laid before the grand jury, then sitting, in this city, a copy of the resolution of both houses of the legislature, directing a prosecution to be commenced against Mr. James Cheetham, editor of the American Citizen, for a libel, together with the publication on which the resolution was founded. The jury, after a few minutes consideration, refused to find a bill; and on Wednesday returned it to the court ignoramus.
From Randolph, (Ver.) May 27. HORRIBLE DISAPPOINTMENT!!
One day last week, an elderly man in Brookfield, whose name we do not chuse to mention, was found hanging in his barn by a bridle, apparently dead, and his face black as a hat. He was immediately cut down, but it was nearly half an hour before any signs of life were discovered in him, and it is said three hours elapsed before he could stand or speak. He told his wife in the morning that she might get as good a breakfast, and eat as much as she pleased, for it would be the last she would ever eat; meaning, it is thought from circumstances, to murder her, that he might have the satisfaction of being hung in consequence, having frequently declared, previously, that he was sick of living, and meant to kill himself some way or other. It appears on inquiry, that he expected to be taken sometime that day, for stealing horse shoes; but probably determined to elude the officer by hanging himself. He was taken, however, and was able to accompany the officer to this town, where he was tried, convicted and fined. We hear he made an attempt to cut his own throat on that day, and on his way to this place, while in the custody of the officer, actually attempted to drown himself by plunging from a bridge into the east Branch of White River, and would doubtless have effected it, but for the humanity of the officer, who waded into the river up to his neck after him, and rescued him from immediate destruction. After paying the fine and costs of prosecution, he went to the north part of this town, where he tarried that night; the next day he returned to Brookfield, loitered about some time, and stoned every one who came near him. At last, the Authority of Brookfield prevailed upon him, with a good deal of difficulty, to go home to his family.

THE SEASONS. HOW mild the balmy breath of SPRING! How fair the following vernal sky! Hark! how the woodland minstrels sing! Hark! how the whistling zephyrs sigh! USURPING SUMMER shifts the scene, And boldly flames in brightness; vain; How transient is his fervid beam! Shot but to dazzle, and decay. BROWN AUTUMN comes in solemn grade; Unlocks her bounteous stores in vain; How quick her blooming honors fade; How faint her strength, how short her reign. See WINTER fierce in mad career! Expiring nature blooms no more; No flowers bloom to deck the year; For music—hark! the tempests roar; Thus LIFE's progressive seasons pass Our vernal blush, our ripen'd bloom, Our sober Autumn's linking glass, Sad prelude to a wintry tomb. PITY'S TEAR. WHEN Sorrow hangs the drooping head, When Pain and Woe are near, When every hope and joy is fled How sweet is Pity's tear! When friends desert, and foes assail, When Pride and Scorn appear, And Innocence can nought avail, How sweet is Pity's tear! Oh then, sweet Pity, loveliest maid, My wandering spirits cheer; And when by foes or friends betray'd, Oh sooth me with a tear.
Wedley. A noted grog-bruiter, who, by excess of drinking had brought on his body a complication of diseases, lay panting on his death bed, with a jug of rum under it, a glass and a pitcher of water on a table near him, while his wife sat by to pour out for him as he had occasion. A female neighbour came in to see him, and as usual asked him how he did, Oh said he almost gone! I believe so, said the neighbour—I think your glass is almost out. Is it, indeed? replied the dying man reaching out to the grog tumbler—here wife fill up the Glass.
A fashionable emigrant invited to dine some time since, with a London alderman, in whose house he had lodged some money, was for a long time tormented with extravagant encomiums on a gibbet pie, which his host was most voraciously devouring. 'Have you ever, Monsieur,' said Mr. Green-far, 'have you ever seen any thing like it?' 'Nothing in my life,' replied the other, 'except your worship's wig.' 'Ha, ha! I exclaims the alderman, 'that's a good one. But pray how is my wig like that pie?' 'Par Dieu,' rejoined the Frenchman, 'because it has a goose's head in it.'
DR. JOHNSON. Boswell, after visiting the coffee house used to return to Johnson's lodgings to give him the news of the day. In one of his morning rambles he noticed a number of scurrilous paragraphs directed against a late publication of his friend's. Boswell purchased the paper, hurried to Johnson's apartment and read him the paragraphs. The doctor having heard him to the end replied peevishly, 'so, sir, this is what they say with regard to myself. Do you know what is said of you?' Mr. Boswell answered in the negative. 'Why then I will tell you sir, returned the doctor, they say that I am a mad dog, and you a tin canister tied to my tail.'
JEU D'ESPRIT. —"How can you, my Lord, prefer punch to wine?" "Because, my dear, it is so like matrimony—such a charming compound of oppressive qualities!" "Ay my Lord, I am the weak part, I suppose." "No, my love, you are the sweet, with a dish of the acid, and no small portion of the spirits."
From the Farmer's Monitor. Messrs. PRINTERS, Having suffered greatly by insects destroying the plants in my garden, and particularly cucumbers, and having also learned a remedy for the evil, you are requested to publish the following, for the benefit of the public: Last year I was more unfortunate than common in the loss of my cucumber plants, three successive crops having been wholly cut off. But towards the end of June, having heard that spirits of Turpentine would preserve them, I planted seed the fourth time and as soon as the plants had begun to get forward I procured the spirits and mixed it with about the same quantity of water, with which I lightly touched the ground round the plants; and the consequence was that neither bugs nor worms molested the vines, and my crop of cucumbers was as good as any I ever had.
AN OLD FARMER: Interesting to the citizens of the United States. The government of Great Britain, as a measure of dire necessity for carrying on the war, oblige the shippers of all goods to the United States to pay an export duty of 4 per cent which is charged in the invoices, and finally paid by the citizens (consumers of their goods) in the United States. The amount of British exports to America, on an average of ten years, is 25,000,000 annually, which at 4 per cent. produces a revenue of 1,000,000 dollars annually paid to Great Britain by the consumers of their goods in America. Query. How many useful manufactures would this sum encourage in our own country; and how many able bodied men might be secured, by the appropriation of one million of dollars annually, to the encouragement of the mechanic arts?

WHEREAS a large number of citizens of this town have made a representation by writing under their hands, to the Selectmen, setting forth, that they compose a considerable proportion of the industrious peaceable inhabitants; that it is their full and invariable purpose, to live in strict subordination to the Laws, and to look to them only for the support of their own rights; and to abstain from all violation of the rights of others. That they have been insulted, threatened, and their lives endangered, when neither guilty of any breach of law or even charged with any. That when claiming and wishing to use the constitutional right, which, all their neighbours enjoy of meeting to worship in their own way, they have been greatly disturbed, and in great measure denied this privilege by lawless riotous people, assembling in numbers round the meeting house, breaking the glass and sashes by throwing in stones, and not only causing disturbance and terror, but actually endangering the lives and lives of those within. And further declaring, that if any claiming connection with them, have been, or shall be guilty of a breach of the law, they will give no countenance to such, but leave them to suffer the just penalties provided for evil doers.
The Selectmen ardently desiring to prevent and suppress, as far as in them lies all riotous disorderly and tumultuous proceedings, tending to disturb and break the peace of the town, and to violate the common clear valuable right of the peaceable Citizens, do in the most decided manner express their opposition to all such proceedings, and earnestly request all the lovers of peace and good order to exert themselves to promote these desirable salutary objects, and utterly to discountenance, prevent and bring to punishment such violation of right, tending to the misery or dissolution of civil society. And the Selectmen have full confidence in the vigilant exertions of the peace, and police officers to prevent or disperse all disorderly assemblies or combinations of people collected for unlawful purposes either against societies or individuals.

RYE and CORN. 100 bushels of RYE and CORN, FOR SALE BY DANIEL WEEKS. June 4.
Fullers Earth. THE Proprietors of the WASHINGTON MINES, in Newfield, state of Massachusetts, have the pleasure of presenting to the public the genuine FULLERS EARTH.
As many advantages may arise to different kinds of Manufacturers, such as Clothiers, silk Dyers, and Hatters, by using it.—The proprietors flatter themselves that they shall meet with suitable encouragement and patronage from their fellow citizens.—The utility of the FULLERS EARTH is estimated so high in England, that a heavy penalty is annexed to its Exportation. It exceeds all kinds of soap, in cleansing of Woollens, Silks, and Cottons, will extract any kind of Grease, and leave the colour clearer and more transparent.
In order that it may be done effectually, let the FULLERS EARTH be moderately dried, in an oven, or over a small fire. Then mix'd with warm water, made into a thin paste, put on and dried on the spots, and then a brush may be used to cleanse it. The Grease will be extracted and the colours left perfect.
Hatters may derive great advantages in the use of the Fullers Earth, as it will cleanse more effectually, than Soap, and less labor required.—Many experiments having been made to prove it.
As the proprietors are sensibly impressed with the very great importance of the FULLERS EARTH—especially to Clothiers, they therefore take the liberty of recommending the following manner of using it.
Take three pounds of dried FULLERS EARTH, to a bucket of water, let it dissolve, wet the cloth in the usual way for scouring; let the cloth go into the Fulling stock one hour, put on your scouring water, and let it go, till the water comes clear from the cloth. The cloth will then be clean, and soft—and half the quantity of soap for Fulling is necessary. The Cloth will cover better on the Warp, and will be twenty per cent easier to finish and color.
But not confining its use to manufacturers, it may be observed, that SEAMEN will find it highly beneficial, as in cleansing their cloaths, salt water may be adopted in the room of fresh.—It likewise may be very serviceable to private families, as Baizes, Flannels and Woolen Hose wash'd with it, will prevent them from shrinking, and in cleansing many kinds of household furniture, its use is far preferable to soap, Rotten Stone, or Whiting—as it leaves no tarnish behind.
As the proprietors of the Washington Mines reprobate every kind of misrepresentation respecting the properties of the Fullers Earth, so they are firmly persuaded, that many after having used it, will join with them, in recommending its great utility.
N. B. The Fullers Earth wholesale and retail may be had at the stores of Messrs. WM. JONES and JOSEPH GAVET, spring hill. Portsmouth, June 4, 1805.

THESE instruments for weighing, are of such utility as to be fast getting into general use. To rate every advantage in the use of them would be superfluous; suffice it to say, they may be "purchased for half the cost and used with half the labour of scales and weights" for "ease, dispatch and precision," they surpass any thing of the kind extant. The frequent demand for them through the states and elsewhere, is of sufficient proof of their usefulness and merited approbation. April 30th, 1805.
