THE NAVY.
The Federalists are very apt to charge their conduct upon the Democrats, and impute it to them as criminal!
They have done this in the case of the Navy.
"The Democrats, say they, destroyed the Navy and left us defenceless."
This is false! The Law ordering the Navy sold, was passed during the Federal administration, just at its close, and was approved and signed by JOHN ADAMS the very last day of his administration, March 3, 1801. The Republicans did but put into execution his federal law.
On the other hand, The Democrats have made addition to the Navy—not such additions, indeed as would cost a great deal and be of little service—but such as would be of real use in defending our harbors, and cities and coasts—
The Democrats have built the Ship Wasp, of 18 guns, Brigs Syren, Hornet, Argus, Sch's Vixen, Nautilus, Enterprise, Bomb ketches Etna and Vesuvius. And nearly an hundred Gun-Boats.
Is this destroying our Navy, and rendering our country defenceless?
But Federalists ridicule Gun-Boats—
So did the British Garrison of Gibraltar when the Spaniards first attacked that fortress with Gun-boats during its memorable siege in 1779, '80, &c. They called them in derision Bum-boats!—But they soon found them too serious for ridicule; and confessed that the Gun-boats annoyed them more during the siege than all the ships of the line brought against them.
Our Gun-boats are every way superior to those then employed by the Spaniards—and when in the Mediterranean during our war with Tripoli, they excited general wonder and applause.
Federalists of genius, reading and reflection, do not ridicule them. They acknowledge their superiority to every other mode of defence for our extensive coast and numerous harbors.
Commodore Preble, Commodore Truxton, Col. Williams, &c. all Federalists, have approved and recommended them—and their opinions in such a case would outweigh an ocean of ridicule flowing from men who never saw a Gunboat, and know nothing of their construction, powers or uses.
One seventy-four (for which Federalists clamor so loudly) costs as much as one hundred and twenty-five Gun-boats.
And will any man dare to say that 125 Gun-boats cannot do more towards defending our coast, cities and harbors than one 74.
The frigate United States of 44 guns, cost 300,000 dollars—a Gunboat costs but 4000—consequently what was expended on one frigate would have built seventy-five Gun-boats.
And can any one doubt that 75 Gun-boats will be of more service to us than one frigate.
If Federalists would reflect, and reason and calculate a little, instead of reviling and ridiculing so much, they would soon allow that the Government in this, as in all its proceedings, has been actuated by the best of motives, and has adopted the wisest of measures.
But if Federalists won't reason, nor calculate, nor reflect, we hope Republicans will—and be able to refute all their fallacies, misrepresentations and calumnies on this and other subjects.
From the Baltimore Evening Post.
A few days more and the important question of War or Peace may be decided.
It would appear, from various sources, that our government will insist upon a recognition of this principle by Great Britain, that our flag shall protect those who sail under it, in the same manner that the laws of the land protect those who take refuge amongst us. Is this a reasonable or unreasonable demand?
What is the case in respect to seamen in Great Britain? If even a Turk serves two years in the British navy he becomes a British subject, and his person will be defended at every hazard, by "his majesty's" officers, and his seizure by the Ottoman Porte would be deemed "a just cause" for war.
But on the other hand native Americans, and naturalized citizens are liable to be impressed on the high seas, and carried by force from American vessels to fight "his majesty's" battles, or suffer death for their magnanimous spirit in refusing to engage on the side of a nation to whom they owe no allegiance.
What would we think if a British frigate was to send a party of men ashore at Annapolis and carry off a dozen or two of our fellow-citizens to serve "his majesty" wrestling them, in one moment, from all they held dear—wives, children and friends, and transporting them from the comforts of their own firesides to the dungeon of a floating hell, the hold of a man of war?
What would we think if the British were to land at Boston or New-York and carry off, by force, even some of their own dear "subjects" and hirelings, and compel to enter on the performance of new duties?
We would believe such transactions to be the most flagrant violations of right, and would resent them to the utmost of our power.
But a vessel goes to sea—the ship, cargo and hands employed are all American—the seamen are impressed, and the property sent in for "adjudication." The vessel and cargo are cleared, and yet the owners are compelled to suffer loss by her detention and pay the costs of the prosecution—but what becomes of her sailors? Is their situation any better than that of citizens taken away as above mentioned would be? Is there any difference in point of fact?
No; the result is the same—the injury to society is equal—and the outrage as unjustifiable and villainous.
In all laws but British laws (power) every man is presumed to be innocent until he is proved guilty—but in respect to American seamen, or seamen sailing under the American flag, every man is presumed to be guilty until he is proved innocent, and liable to do duty on board of "his majesty's" ships.
We have always considered the granting of protections as a humiliating piece of business, and inconsistent with our ideas of sovereignty and independence—because it indirectly admits the right the British claim of impressing all persons who have not got them.
But even these protections are disregarded. A British officer does not hesitate to tear them in pieces, and throw them in the face of the unhappy sailor—because "his majesty wants men!"
What is "his majesty" to us that we should bear the insults and injuries of his officers—we owe him no allegiance—we paid the debt, if such was ever due, in the revolutionary conflict.
Under the belief that Britain will not give up her "right" to kidnap and murder our citizens, some of our tories have already began to level their abuse at our government—what signify, say they, the liberty and life of the sailor when compared with the disadvantages of a war? "Britain is fighting the battles of the world," and "to preserve her own existence" is justifiable in depriving the American citizen of his!
Thus, if one man wants money which another has, the first is justifiable in murdering and robbing the latter, to lessen his own difficulties! Rascally logic!
Yet "this is the law and the prophets" of the tories.
The fact is, there are hundreds, perhaps thousands among us, citizens of the United States, who holding allegiance in their hearts to the king of the United Kingdoms of Great Britain and Ireland, and hating every thing like a republican government because they cannot so liberally partake of the good things of this life as they themselves believe their better blood merits, who would be happy to recede all the rights we obtained by the revolution of sovereignty and independence, and come again under the sceptre of that most wonderful and most gracious king George the third, of whose wisdom and greatness of soul we have had innumerable examples.
The real American values neither Englishmen or Frenchmen further than their own merits and conduct toward us may justify his opinion—he would treat them all, in peace, as friends, and in war, as enemies. Is Britain or France, from their peculiar situations, an enemy, admitting interest to be the rule of their conduct?
Britain lives by commerce and manufactures—France does not. Is she then our enemy in those pursuits? It is her interest to promote them; and while the British have agents here to superintend and give an account of our progress in domestic manufactures, burn down our factories, entice away the workmen, and throw every obstruction in our way to independence, France, if she interested herself at all, would have her agents to promote and encourage them, as tending to reduce the power and resources of her rival.
It seems a little singular that four out of five of the factories established in this country for the manufacture of goods heretofore imported from Great Britain should become heaps of ashes.
A single item of the expenditure of "secret service money," might explain the whole business.
This, however, is as justifiable as the seizure of our seamen; and he who can palliate the impressment of our men to fight the battles of King George, can readily approve the destroying of our factories to give employment to his subjects.
Foreign Intelligence.
OF COPENHAGEN.
Besides the accounts of events at Copenhagen to the 18th Aug. the following particulars from Kiel are mentioned in the Monitor:
"According to the last disposition of the troops in Holstein, they form one continued line from Lubeck to the extremities of Jutland. Small encampments are formed at regular distances upon the coast, so that upon occasion they can assemble at a short notice. All the most important positions upon the canal are occupied. Fredericksort is put in a state of defence, and a battery of ten guns is thrown up on the other side of the mouth of the port of Kiel. Vessels are fitting out to protect the entrance of the ports of Holstein. The Militia is every where organized, as are also the Guards upon the coast."
"In Zealand, the Militia consist of 19 battalions; some of them have been thrown into Cronenburg and Copenhagen. Thirteen still remain for the defence of the island, they have been joined by the cavalry, and some other corps. Volunteers are every where forming, and in a very short time there will not be less than 50,000 men under arms in Zealand and the Duchy. Every one is inspired with activity, zeal and retrenchment, against the English."
KIEL, Aug. 27.—The post from Zealand, and even Sweden, has failed for some days past. We learn that the English do every thing in their power to interrupt our communication by the telegraph, and they have destroyed some of them upon the island of Spro, between Zealand and Funen. This anxiety to prevent intelligence seems not to augur well for their affairs in the neighborhood of Copenhagen. In the mean while all their attempts to prevent any communication between Zealand, which has so many outlets, and the Continent, have been unavailing. Several of our ablest Officers have succeeded in penetrating through Zealand, and we are even assured that three whole regiments, viz. the first and third of the Jutland Infantry, and that of Horzen's Dragoons, have landed in Zealand without any loss. The failure of regular intelligence has hitherto prevented us from receiving positive intelligence of this event. However this may be, there is no want of men in Zealand. Ardour in defence of the country shews itself every where; both the citizen and the peasant vie with each other in hastening to the enrollments, and in this they follow the example of their superiors. The Bailiff of Soroe has armed 400 peasants. Copenhagen defends itself with unexampled courage, both by sea and land. Several English frigates have been so roughly handled by the Danish gun-boats, that they have been obliged to cut their cables and run.
TONNINGEN, Aug. 24.—The inhabitants and the garrison of Copenhagen, have adopted a measure which shews the firmness of their resolution to defend themselves to the last. They have burnt the suburb of the Weissemburg, that extends towards Fredericksberg, and under cover of which the
English had begun to throw up works. In the force made for that purpose, about 20 Danes, and 100 English, were killed, and 50 of the latter brought into Copenhagen as prisoners.
Our army in Holstein is in full march. Only a very small cordon remains upon the limits of Lauenburg and Lubeck. The rest of it retains possession of the coast on the Baltic, while the other part advances through Jutland to Fühnen. Gen. Ewald's head-quarters are at Neustadt. In a word, the people are so well affected, that our government will have no scruple to call them out in a mass, in case of danger, particularly the inhabitants of the sea coasts.
FROM FRENCH PAPERS.
Petersburg Aug. 3.—The Emperor has conferred high honors upon the Engineer Witte, as a testimony of his satisfaction in the progress of the works which are to join the Dneiper to the Duna, that is, the Black Sea to the Baltic, by the canal of Berefin.
Triest Aug. 18.—The Russian ships of war are off this port. Their troops from Cataro are to remain at Corfu, till they possess the Dardanelles. The English frigates and cutters are off this port, taking all vessels from ports which are garrisoned by the French. An English frigate arrived in our road a few days ago with four prizes, and with intentions to sell them in this port, but she was forbidden to enter, and was assured that we should fire upon her if she made the attempt. We do not know where her prizes belonged.
Marseilles, Aug. 24.—We are informed that the Algerines lost in the action in which they were defeated by the Tuneses, 30,000 men killed, 4,000 made prisoners, 500 Arabian women, 500 wounded, 26 brass pieces of cannon, 6 mortars, 500 tents, 5,000 mules, 10,000 camels, 10,000 small arms, 1000 quintals of powder, 2,000 shells, 5000 axes, 20 pair of gold mounted pistols set with diamonds, 20 sabres in the same order, 15 Constatine mares richly appareled and valued at 50,000 dollars, with 3 chests of money in gold and other coin.
Magdeburg, Aug. 20.—Berlin is full of troops. The troops do not stop long, but as soon as they have passed others follow them. It is thought they will not pass that way after the end of the present month.
BY THE MAILS.
HALIFAX, (N. S.) OCT. 9.
On the 18th ult. a Court-Martial was held on board the Acasta, composed of Captains Pickmore, Fahie, Lord Fitzroy, Shortland, Beaver, Hawker, and O'chrane, for the trial of forty-four seamen and a marine, belonging to the Jason frigate, charged with a mutinous assembly on board that ship, when lying off New-York, in September last, for the purpose of deserting in the boats. The trials continued until the 29th ult. when Thomas Campbell, William Caton, Mounsey Tinning, Robert Denen, Peter Bond, John M'Neil, William Lang, Edward Milton, Joseph Molena, and Thomas Martin, seamen, and Patrick Brown, marine, were convicted, and received sentence of death. The others were acquitted.
Oct. 13.—Yesterday morning, William Caton and Mounsey Tinning, two of the mutineers on board the Jason, were executed from the fore yard-arm of the Jason.—Campbell, Brown, Bond and Denen, were respited, after they had ascended the platform. The others convicted had been recommended to mercy.
VINCENNES, (I. T.) AUG. 29.
Dear Sir, "I had the honor to receive your favor, covering the resolutions entered into by the citizens of Richmond, and I sincerely thank the committee and yourself for this mark of their attention. The resolutions are such as I expected from the capitol of my parent state, which is in reality the "head quarters" of patriotism and correct republican sentiment."
"The subject of the late outrage on our sovereignty and national honor, was taken up by the legislative council and house of representatives now in session, and certain resolutions passed, a copy of which I have the honor to enclose herewith."
"The exertions of the British to embroil us with the Indians of this quarter (which I believe have never been intermitted since the commencement of the revolutionary war) have within a few months past assumed more than usual activity. To accomplish their object the vilest means are resorted to, such as a magnanimous nation would disdain to employ. One of the instruments which they are now using with the greatest effect to delude those unhappy people, and to destroy the influence which the government had obtained over them by a series of kind offices calculated to promote their happiness, is an artful Shawanese, whom they have prevailed upon to assume the character of a prophet, and who has contrived to procure the assassination of several of the most influential and active friends of the United States."
"I have the honor to be, with sen-
timents of the most perfect esteem, dear Sir, your humble servant, "WM. H. HARRISON. "Hon. A. M'Rae, Esq."
BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
A PROCLAMATION.
WHEREAS information has been received that a number of individuals who have deserted from the army of the United States, and sought shelter without the jurisdiction thereof, have become sensible of their offence, and are desirous of returning to their duty, a full pardon is hereby proclaimed to each and all of such individuals as shall, within four months from the date hereof, surrender themselves to the commanding officer of any military post within the United States, or the territories thereof.
In testimony whereof, I have caused the seal of the United States to be affixed to these presents, and signed the same with my hand.—Done at the city of Washington, the fifteenth day of October, in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and seven, and of the Independence of the United States of America the thirty-second.
TH. JEFFERSON. By the President, JAMES MADISON, Secretary of State.
NEW-YORK, Oct. 23.—I am informed, and it is worthy of remark, that the county of Bergen, in New-Jersey, has returned an entire republican representation in the legislature of that state. Bergen county has ever been the strong hold of federalism; she has heretofore adhered to those pernicious and decaying principles with the most obstinate pertinacity.—She has abandoned them now, I trust, never to embrace them again.
National Legislature.
TENTH CONGRESS—FIRST SESSION.
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.
MONDAY, OCT. 26.
This being the day fixed by the proclamation of the President of the U. S. for the meeting of Congress, a majority of the members of both Houses convened at the Capitol. The assistant clerk of the House of Representatives having called over the names of the members, announced 117 members and one delegate to be present.
He then inquired if it were the pleasure of the House to proceed to the appointment of a speaker, which being determined in the affirmative, the members proceeded to ballot for that officer, Messrs. Cutts, Holmes and John Campbell being named tellers. The tellers, after examining the votes, reported that 117 were received, and Joseph B. Varnum, a representative from the state of Massachusetts, having 59 of them, was declared to be duly elected.
The House next proceeded to the election of a Clerk. Fifty-nine votes being necessary to a choice, Patrick Magruder was declared to be duly elected, he having 72 votes.
TUESDAY, OCT. 27.
Mr. Basset, from the committee appointed yesterday to wait upon the President of the U. States, to inform him Congress was formed and ready to receive any communication he might have to make to them, reported, that he would make a communication to the two Houses by Message at 12 o'clock this day.
Accordingly at 12 o'clock the message of the President was delivered by his Secretary (a copy of which was inserted in our last Gazette) which, after being read, was committed to a committee of the whole House on the state of the Union, and 1000 copies ordered to be printed.
An election took place for a Sergeant at Arms, which, after two ballottings, issued in favor of Thomas Dunn.
Thomas Claxton was appointed Door-Keeper without opposition, and Jesse Edwards assistant Door-Keeper at the first ballot.
Mr. Dawton moved the appointment of the Standing Committees; but a difference of opinion arising whether they should be named by the Speaker as heretofore, or elected by ballot, the appointment was postponed till to-morrow.
WEDNESDAY, OCT. 28.
A debate of some length occurred this day, and yesterday, on an amendment moved, that the standing committees of the House should be chosen by ballot, and not as usual, appointed by the Speaker. Mr. Blount, the mover, insisted on calling the yeas and nays on the question, as "he wished to see how gentlemen who had so strenuously advocated the balloting for these committees heretofore would now vote." The amendment was lost—Yeas 24. Nays 87.—So that the appointment is vested in the Speaker. The standing Committees were then appointed.
THURSDAY, OCT. 29.
The House went into Committee, on the State of the Union, Mr. Basset in the chair; when Mr. Dawton offered the following resolutions:—
1. Resolved, That so much of the message of the President of the U. S. as relates to aggressions committed within our ports and waters by foreign armed vessels; to the violation of our jurisdiction; and the measures necessary for the protection of our ports and harbors, be referred to a select committee. 2. Resolved, That so much of said message as relates to violations of our maritime rights, to impositions on, or interdictions of our neutral rights, be referred to the committee of Commerce and Manufactures. 3. Resolved, That so much of said message as relates to our intercourse with Indian tribes be referred to a select committee. 4. Resolved, That so much of said message as relates to our military and naval establishments, be referred to a select committee. 5. Resolved, That so much of said message as relates to our finances, be referred to the committee of Ways and Means. 6. Resolved, That so much of said message as relates to enterprises against the public peace, and the means of preventing the same, and of punishing their authors, be referred to a select committee.
These resolutions were agreed to.
Portsmouth,
TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 10, 1807.
From DENMARK.
On Tuesday last, arrived at Portland ship North America, Capt. Dean, from Elsinour. Left there the 17th August, and Cronstadt the 20th. The following is an extract of a letter received by a gentleman of Portland, from a mercantile house in Elsinour.
"Elsinour, September 5, 1807. "On the 3d of last month, a British force of upwards of 50 sail of men of war and 30,000 troops, arrived here quite unexpectedly, to demand the Danish fleet, &c. which being refused, hostilities commenced on the 16th ult. and at this moment the whole island is in possession of the British with the exception of this place and the city of Copenhagen, which last place is completely invested both by land and sea; and during 6 days the bombardment has been severe indeed. Two nights great fires have been observed, and last night it was dreadful, half the city appearing on fire; but as the distance is 30 miles, there are various opinions whether it was in Copenhagen or the suburbs. No certain advice can be received here how matters stand; but we much fear that city must fall, as its stores will daily increase, and they were by no means prepared for such an attack, which we conceive a very hard one. There are vast quantities of West India and American produce in the stores, mostly unsold, and if matters go to the worst, the loss will be heavily felt for years to come. The British have such a force in the Belt, that nothing can come from Holstein; so that we have only about 8000 regular troops in the island, and 20,000 volunteers, principally in Copenhagen. The King, Prince and Royal Family are all in Jutland and Holstein."
COPENHAGEN, &c.
Capt. Stanwood arrived at Boston on Thursday last, from Gottenburg (a city of Sweden near the entrance of the Baltic, about 100 miles N. of Copenhagen) which he left the 13th September last.—He brings accounts of the surrender of Copenhagen, to the British forces, on the 7th September. The reported terms of capitulation, as far as Capt. Stanwood can recollect them, were, That the Danish fleet, consisting of twenty-seven sail of the line, and 30 frigates, should be deposited in one of his Britannic Majesty's ports, to be restored at the conclusion of a general peace; That the British army should not enter the city of Copenhagen; but should reembark, and leave the island of Zealand, in 6 weeks, and that all merchants ships and property taken, should be restored. The effect of this news, at Gottenburg was that a British squadron which had arrived there with reinforcements for the English army, had not proceeded on their destination.
It was reported at Gottenburg that a serious misunderstanding had arisen between the Russian Emperor, and his Senate, on the subject of the treaty of Tilsit; and that the Senate had not ratified that instrument.
The Swedes remained zealous in their co-operation with the English, to oppose French domination; and were fitting out nine sail of the line with all possible expedition. [Continued.]
On Friday last arrived at Boston in 45 days from Rotterdam, the brig American, Capt. Gofs.
She brought a Dutch paper of the 15th of September, from which (as a friend informed us from memory) the following extracts are translated.
That the inhabitants of Denmark had made a successful sortie from the North Gate, defeated the English forces which opposed them with great slaughter, and taken the Castle of Fredericksburg, together with 300 prisoners, and held possession of the Castle at the date of the last accounts.
That a large reinforcement from Jutland, had fallen upon the English from another quarter, with equal success.
Capt. Gofs informs that news was current and generally believed at Rotterdam when he left there, viz. Sept. 22, that the English forces before Copenhagen were totally routed.
We have not been able to learn any further particulars. We must let this loose and hasty sketch go, like the other current reports, for as much as it will fetch; for believing any opinion at present, except that, if Copenhagen has been taken, it is very dearly purchased. [Democrat.]
Relative to our affairs with England, we have many tales in a channel which renders them suspicious. That the President allowed the English court but four days, was current in Europe and America, but it is now contradicted at Washington. Other reports are put in circulation, upon confidential letters, without the true history of the communications. We have been imposed upon so often that we should be upon our guard. The English will involve us in a war, if they can find it for their interest. Our preparations will assist to decide upon that interest. [Essex Register.]

We have received the President's Message, and it has afforded us sincere pleasure. It communicates all we wish, and in a manner which increases our confidence in the administration. It satisfies us that the negotiations with England are conducted with the same moderation and firmness with which they commenced. It represents the true causes of delay, and the nature of the articles sent to the President from England, which obliged the refusal to ratify them. The measures of the executive already taken in consequence of the attack on the Chesapeake, are satisfactorily explained, and the most interesting facts which accompany them. The statement relative to Mr. Burr is honorable to the President. After a just representation of the measures taken to bring him to justice, he promises to lay before Congress the proceedings in the Courts, that Congress might determine upon the questions which deeply interest the public mind; whether the result of the late trial, was from defect in the testimony, in the law, or the administration of the Law. The remark which accompanies this appeal to the Legislature, is such as might have been expected, and discovers that the President has not been inattentive to some late transactions in the United States. A subject so fully urged upon the Legislature, will undoubtedly engage their severest scrutiny. The pleasing picture which the President exhibits of our prosperity, proves, that amidst all the clamours of the times, the administration has steadily pursued the public good, and had combined all the best means of the national welfare; that our present situation affords all the hopes of continual internal prosperity, and places us in the best attitude to defend ourselves against foreign enemies, which national obligations can ensure. Such has been the prudence, wisdom and consistency of the President, that against this rock, the waves of faction dash in vain. [Essex Register.]
FROM WASHINGTON.
Our correspondent at the City of Washington, under date of the 30th ult. says, "Nothing of importance was transacted this day. The Rev. Obadiah Browne, of Washington, was chosen Chaplain to the House of Representatives. The following members compose the Committees to which were referred the respective parts of the President's message, viz. On that part which relates to aggressions committed within our harbors and waters by foreign armed vessels, &c. Messrs. Blount, Chandler, Burwell, Goldsborough, Riker, Troup, and Withersall. On that part which relates to enterprizes against the Public peace, &c. Messrs. J. Randolph, Blackledge, Lloyd, Quincey, Hoge, Masters and Wilbour. On that part which relates to military and naval establishments: Messrs. Dawson, Holms, Rhea (of Penn.) Butler, Van Cortlandt, Champion, and Storer. On that part which relates to Indian affairs: Messrs. Cook, Bibb, Sloan, Delha, and Harris. The House adjourned at an early hour to Monday morning. The prevailing opinion here is, that nothing interesting will be brought up until the dispatches from our ministers in London are received, which are daily expected." [N.Y. paper.]
The Trenton True American says, never were men more disappointed than the federalists in New-Jersey. All secrecy and art had been observed, and so confident were they of success, that they proclaimed it before the event of the elections could be known. The writer observes, if the republicans do not suffer the federalists to divide them, federalism will never raise its head again in that state. [Essex Register.]
The spirit of the South Americans is worthy of America. This brave people have done themselves immortal honour. They have done their business well. They have rid themselves of their enemies. The Danes follow the example, and we trust that 1807 will be as memorable for their full success, as 1801 was for their bravery. All agree that this brave people's submission, while a single arm can execute vengeance. Such is the proud spirit which is to humble the haughty spirit of oppression. [Ibid.]
More "struggling for existence."—It seems by an article under our marine head that the British commanders of frigates, &c. are not satisfied with pressing Englishmen—and Americans whom they are pleased to call Englishmen—but that they claim the right to press all Danes and Swedes sailing under the American flag. What will be the next "struggle?" [Ibid.]
According to the President's excellent address to Congress, we may soon expect from that illustrious body a full explanation of their opinion respecting the management in Burr's affairs, and we shall then know, from authority, what sort of hearing the government thinks he has had, or is to have, from the courts of justice. [Ibid.] Another righteous decision of a righteous JUDGE.
Judge Marshall has determined conformably to the anticipation of all, that Burr shall not be committed for treason; but by way of listening the matter has consented that Burr and Blethenhaffet shall be committed for trial in Ohio, on the charge of misdemeanor ! Even on this charge he will probably be cleared in some way or other. All this is very much as we predicted. What think ye, fellow-citizens, of Griswold's letter?
The federalists and Burrists pretend great concern for the independence of the Judiciary. Had Burr, Selfridge, Marshall and others been democrats, and the trials of the criminals conducted as they have now been, should we have heard any thing said in favor of the independence of the Judiciary? [Worcester Register.]
GENERAL ORDERS.
WHEREAS Orders were issued to the several Major Generals through the State, on the 22d July last, to detach from their several Divisions their respective proportion of four thousand and seventy-two men, and to make return of the same to the Office of the Adjutant General. The Commander in Chief hereby directs the Major Generals of the several Divisions to take immediate measures to complete the returns of the detachment to the said Office of the Adjutant General, that a general return may be made to the Secretary of War, without the least delay.—The Commander in Chief relies on a prompt compliance with this order.
MICHAEL M'CLARY, Adjutant General. Portsmouth, Nov. 2d, 1807.
Last Monday the Circuit Court of the United States for this District was held at Exeter by the Hon. Judge Cushing and Judge Sherburne. At the opening of the Court, the Throne of Grace was addressed in a very devout and appropriate prayer by the Rev. Mr. Roland, and an able and elegant Charge delivered the Grand Jury by Judge Sherburne.
From Baltimore, Oct. 25.
"I am happy to inform you, that the legislature of Maryland will this year be decidedly republican. The senate is entirely republican. The house of delegates will, from the best information, stand, 47 decided and firm democratic republicans, 6 quids, and 27 federalists. This information you may rely on."
The elections throughout Pennsylvania, are generally much the same as to the result as they were last year; the majority on the democratic side may be expected to be increased about fourteen votes in the house of representatives and four in the senate.
There will soon be published in Philadelphia a new and interesting work, entitled "Columbiad, a poem, in ten Books, by Joel Barlow."
The work will be printed in the most elegant style, and ornamented with twelve superb engravings."

HAIL! sober Autumn, lovely maid, I love thy garb of russet hue, I love to haunt thy leaf-strewn glade, When deep impetuous with morning dew.
From the Mercantile Advertiser.
Now is the time to procure the leaves of the Beech-Tree, for making sweet and wholesome beds and matresses: in Denmark, Sweden and Switzerland, persons of the first quality prefer them to any other.
"Hence in the world's first years, the humble Beech, Was happily and fully furnished; Beech made their beds, their bed, and homely floors, Beech made their board, their platters, and their bowls."
