GENERAL ORDERS.
THE Commander in Chief takes this opportunity of returning his thanks to the Generals and other Officers of the Militia (who have attended to their duty) throughout the State, for their zeal and exertions in the general muster of the Regiments and Battalions the last fall, and at the same time would express his highest satisfaction with the conduct of the Soldiers in cheerfully appearing in the field when called upon; as there are several regiments which were not mustered according to law, the Commander in Chief directs the Generals to call upon the field officers of such regiments for their reasons for not carrying into effect the orders given for that purpose, and he earnestly hopes they will be able to give sufficient excuse for their non-appearance. The Major Generals of the several divisions are directed to issue their orders to the Brigadiers, to see that the several regiments have their field officers compleat, and that the commanders thereof take care that the companies in each regiment are officered, and that the officers are qualified by taking the oaths prescribed by law. The Captain General is confident (from the military spirit that was shewn at their late general muster,) that the officers through the State will continue their exertions in calling out the companies in June next, agreeably to law—it is all important that the companies should be trained, and kept in compleat order; this being done, the duty of meeting by regiments and battalions in the fall of the year will be easy and agreeable.
By order of his Excellency the Commander in Chief. MICHAEL M'CLARY, Adjutant General.

PARIS, JAN. 15.—At length the official treaty of Peace with Austria has been communicated to the public, and which the Emperor has sent from Munich to be ratified by the Senate.
TREATY OF PEACE.
"NAPOLEON, by the Grace of God and by the Constitutions, Emperor of the French and King of Italy, having seen and examined the Treaty concluded and signed at Presburg, the 26th Dec. 1805, between the Plenipotentiaries on each side—which here follows:
"His Majesty the Emperor of Germany and Austria, and his Majesty the Emperor of the French and King of Italy, equally animated to put an end to the calamities of war, have resolved to proceed without delay to the conclusion of a definitive Treaty of Peace, and have in consequence nominated for Plenipotentiaries, viz. his Majesty the Emperor of Germany and Austria, Prince John Lichtenstein, Prince of the Holy Roman Empire, Grand Cross of the Military Order of Maria Theresa, Chamberlain, Lieutenant-General of the Armies of his said Majesty, and Proprietor of a Regiment of Hussars; and Count Ignaz Gyulai, Commander of the Military Order of Maria Theresa, Chamberlain of his said Majesty, Lieut.

IX. His Majesty the Emperor of Germany and Austria acknowledges the debts contracted by the House of Austria in favor of individuals and of the public establishments of the country, now actually making an integral part of the French Empire; and it is agreed, that his said Majesty shall continue free of all obligation, with respect to all debts whatever, which the House of Austria may have contracted on account of the possession and hypothecque on the sale of the country which he renounces by the present treaty.

The Electoral title of his Royal Highness shall be transferred to this principality, which his Royal Highness shall possess in full property and sovereignty, in the same manner and on the same conditions that he possessed the Electorate of Salzburg.
And with respect to debts, it is agreed, that the new possessor shall stand charged only with those debts resulting from loans formally agreed to by the states of the country, or the expenses incurred for the effective administration of said country.
XII. The Grand Master of the Teutonic Order, its rights, domains, and revenues, which before the present war were dependencies of Merzenheim, the chief place of the Order; the other rights, domains and revenues, which shall be found to the Grand Mastership at the time of the exchange of the ratification of the present Treaty, as well as the domains and revenue in possession of which the said Order shall be, at the same epoch shall become hereditary in the person and descendants in the direct male line, according to the order of primogeniture, in which ever of the Princes of the Imperial House, as shall be appointed by his Majesty the Emperor of Germany and Austria.

Their Majesties the Kings of Bavaria and Württemberg, and His Most Serene Highness the Elector of Baden, shall enjoy over the territories ceded, as well as over their ancient estates, the plenitude of sovereignty, and all the rights resulting from it, which have been guaranteed to them by His Majesty the Emperor of the French, King of Italy, in the same manner as the Emperor of Germany and Austria, and his Majesty the King of Prussia, over their German States.—His Majesty the Emperor of Germany and Austria, both as Chief of the Empire, and as co-estates, engages himself not to oppose any obstacle to the execution of the acts which they may have made, or will make in consequence.

Ten days after the said exchange, the French and the troops of the allies of France, shall evacuate Moravia, Bohemia, the Viertel, Lower, Vienna, Wald, Manhartsberg, Hungary, and the whole of Styria—In the ten following days they shall evacuate the Viertel, Wiener Wald, and the Viertel Ober Manhartsherg; and finally, in the space of two months from the exchange of the Ratifications, the French troops and the troops of the allies of France, shall evacuate the whole of the hereditary States of his Majesty the Emperor of Germany and Austria, with the exception of the place of Braunau, which shall remain for one month at the disposal of his Majesty the Emperor of the French, King of Italy, as a place of depot for the sick and for the artillery.
No requisition, of whatever nature, shall be made, of the inhabitants during that month.—But it is agreed that at the expiration of said month, no corps, whatever, of Austrian troops can be stationed or introduced within a circuit of six leagues around the said place of Braunau.—It is in like manner agreed, that each of the places which are to be successively evacuated by the French troops within the times above mentioned, shall not be taken possession of by the Austrian troops till eight and forty hours after the evacuation. It is also agreed, that the magazines left by the French army, in the places which they shall successively evacuate, shall remain at its disposal; and that the high contracting parties shall make an arrangement relative to all contributions of war whatsoever imposed on the different hereditary States occupied by the French army, an arrangement in virtue of which the raising of the said contributions shall entirely cease from the day of the exchange of the ratifications.

They will determine by a mutual agreement the kind and nature of the objects, which being the property of the Emperor of Germany and Austria, are consequently to remain at his disposal. They will agree either on the sale to the kingdom of Italy, of the objects above-mentioned, or their exchange for an equivalent quantity of artillery, or other objects of the same, or a different nature, which shall have been left by the French armies in the Hereditary States.

INTERESTING FOREIGN NEWS.
SCHONBRUNN, DEC. 29.—Before the Emperor NAPOLEON left this place, he published the following
PROCLAMATION TO THE ARMY.
"SOLDIERS, Peace between me and the Emperor of Austria is signed. You have in this late season of the year made two campaigns—you have performed every thing I expected from you. I am setting out to return to my capital. I have promoted and distributed rewards to those who have distinguished themselves most; I will perform to you every thing I have promised. You have seen that your Emperor has shared with you all dangers and fatigues; you shall likewise see him surrounded with all that grandeur and splendor which becomes the Sovereign of the first nation in the world. In the beginning of the month of May I will give a grand festival at Paris; you shall all be there; and we shall there see whether we are called by the happiness of our country, and the interest of our glory."
"Soldiers, during the three months which are necessary for your return to France, be the example of all armies.—You have now to give examples, not of courage and intrepidity, but of strict discipline—may my allies no more have to complain of your behaviour! Conduct yourselves on your arrival in that sacred territory, like children in the bosom of their family. My people will conduct themselves towards you, as they must do towards their heroes & their defenders."
"Soldiers, the thought that I shall see you all in less than half a year, assembled round my Palace, is pleasing to my heart; and I feel before-hand the most delightful emotions. We will celebrate the memory of those, who in these two campaigns, have fallen in the field of honor. The world shall see that we are ready to follow their example, and if necessary, to do still more than we have done, against those who attack our honour, or suffer themselves to be misled by the gold of the eternal enemy of the Continent."
(Signed)
"NAPOLEON."
"By order of the EMPEROR,
"Major General Marshal BERTHIER."
"Schonbrunn, 6th Nivose, Dec. 27 th "
The EMPEROR at the same time likewise published the following Proclamation;
"Inhabitants of Vienna—I have signed a peace with the EMPEROR OF AUSTRIA. As I am about to return to my Capital, I must express to you the esteem I entertain for you, and the satisfaction I have felt at your conduct, during the time you were under my laws. I have given you an example, which hitherto has had no parallel in the history of nations. Ten thousand men of your national guards have remained armed, and have guarded your gates; your whole arsenal has continued in your power, while I have followed the uncertain fortune of war. I have trusted to your honor, your sincerity, your integrity, and you have justified my confidence."
"Inhabitants of Vienna, I know that you consider that war as blameable, which a Minister devoted to a foreign power has kindled on the Continent. Your Sovereign is informed of the conduct of that Minister, and has in consequence acted entirely according to the great qualities which distinguish him; and I now hope, that hereafter happier days will arise for you, and for the Continent."
"Inhabitants of Vienna, I have shown myself little among you, not from contempt, or vain pride; no, but that I might not diminish the feelings of esteem for that Monarch with whom I was desirous to conclude a speedy peace. As I am now about to leave you, receive from me as a present, your arsenal untouched, which by the laws of war had become my property; make use of it for the maintenance of good order. All the evils you have suffered, you must ascribe to the calamities inseparable from war; and every kind of indulgence with which my armies have treated these countries, to the esteem which you have deserved."
(Signed)
"NAPOLEON."
"By order of the EMPEROR,
"Major General Marshal BERTHIER."
"Schonbrunn, 6th Nivose, (Dec. 27 th ), Year 14."
Among the other changes which are to follow the peace of Presburg, the German Elective Body is to receive an accession of two Members. The Duke of Brunswick, and the Prince of Hesse Darmstadt, are to be exalted to the dignity of Electors. We should not be surprised, if the King of Prussia should, on the first opportunity, become the head of the Empire. These two new Electors, created, no doubt, for that special purpose, will give him a majority, should he be disposed to contest the election of a king of the Romans.
The Wirtemburgh newspaper states, that upon the request of the Austrian Emperor, Baron Thugut was permitted to be present at the conferences at Presburg; from whence it is inferred, that even a peace between France and England was an object of the deliberations: Baron Thugut having before conducted the negotiations with England, is supposed to have been well acquainted with the subject.
Letters from Vienna, of the 22d inst. confirm the nomination of Count De Stadion, formerly Minister from Austria to St. Petersburg, as Minister of Foreign Affairs. A Treaty of Alliance offensive and defensive, is said to be on the point of conclusion between Austria and France.—Bosnia, Wallachia, and Servia, are to indemnify the Emperor for the loss of Venice and the Tyrol. To the Governor of the latter country, his Majesty has written a most impressive letter, lamenting the imperious circumstances that forced him to give up the Sovereignty of that country.
The contribution on Austria Proper is 60,000,000 of francs. All the French conscripts have received orders to return home.
Fifty thousand of the French Grand Army are to remain in Germany until every thing is arranged.
The Archduke Charles, on his return to Vienna, immediately solicited marks of distinction for the officers and soldiers that had signalized themselves under his command in Italy. They were readily granted by his brother.
CONDUCT OF PRUSSIA.
HAMBURGH, JAN. 31.—The tranquillity of the North seems now to be secured by the interference of Prussia.—A treaty between Napoleon and Frederick William has been signed for this purpose; it consists of seven articles. The allied troops of Britain, Russia, and Sweden are to evacuate the Electorate, which is to remain in the possession of a Prussian administration till a general peace takes place. Count Schulenberg, is to superintend the Administration of Hanover.
LONDON, FEB. 8.—The conduct of Prussia has been "strange, passing strange." After her public declarations, the march of her numerous armies; and the hopes held out to the allies, her operation against France could scarcely be questioned.—All at once, her armies are ordered to halt; to march back, and to go into quarters on a peace establishment; and it is found she has been in continual negotiation with France; and that Count Haugwitz was on
his journey to Paris to put a finish to a treaty between Prussia and France. By this treaty, it seems, that Prussia has stipulated for the unmolested return of the Russian and British troops from Hanover. [They have since left the electorate; and the greater part of them arrived in England about the 8th February.]
FEB. 10.—The first dispatches which Mr. Fox has received from the continent, announce that the King of Prussia had taken possession of Hanover in his own name; had ordered the oath of allegiance to be administered to the different authorities; had directed the removal of the British arms from all the public offices; prohibited all correspondence between the Public Functionaries and the Court of Great-Britain, and appointed Count Sculenburgh, Governor of the Electorate. It is also added, that arrangements had been made to shut out British commerce from all the ports of Prussia!!
OF THE RUSSIAN ARMIES.
VIENNA, DEC. 28.—We learn that Alexander, previous to his departure for Russia, sent orders to his generals in the Neapolitan territory, to evacuate Italy, and re-embark for Russia.
The Russians and Swedes are evacuating Hanover.—The British are ready to embark for their native isle, agreeably to the stipulations of a treaty between France and Prussia.
PARIS, JAN. 22.—The Emperor has adopted Prince Eugene Beauharnois, as his son, and allotted to him the kingdom of Italy, after certain conditions are fulfilled by certain powers, and in the interim the Prince is to act as Viceroy. It is said he takes the name of Eugene-Napoleon.
On the 4th inst. at Munich, was celebrated the marriage of Prince Eugene Beauharnois, [son of the French Empress by her former husband, since adopted by Bonaparte,] with the Princess Augusta Amelia of Bavaria.
We are assured that orders have been given to augment, the flotilla at Bologne, in as much as the Grand Army will soon return to the coast.
JAN. 27.—The Emperor and Empress returned to this capital last evening. The Emperor declines any public honors till his troops return. Addresses, as usual, were presented by the different branches of the government.
JAN. 29.—The Rochefort Squadron has returned to port, after a cruise of 161 days. It has taken one man-of-war, 3 sloops, and 42 merchantmen.
Yesterday his Majesty, surrounded by the Princes, and Grand Dignitaries, received on his throne, the homage and congratulations of the Constituted Authorities.
All the views of Napoleon are directed to the conquest of the Ottoman Empire, and Constantinople is mentioned as the future residence of the Holy Father.

"His Majesty has commanded us further to inform you, that whilst the superiority, of his arms at sea has been uniformly asserted and maintained, he has not been wanting in his endeavors to apply the means which were so liberally placed at his disposal, in aid of such of the Powers of the Continent as had evinced a determination to resist the formidable and growing encroachments of France. He has directed the several treaties to be laid before you; and though he cannot but deeply lament that the events of the war in Germany have disappointed his hopes, and led to an unfavorable issue, yet his Majesty feels confident that, upon a review of the steps which he has taken, you will be of opinion that he has left nothing undone on his part to sustain the efforts of his Allies, and that he has acted in strict conformity to the principles declared by him and recognized by Parliament as essential to the interests and security of his own dominions, as well as to the general safety of the Continent."
It is a great consolation to his Majesty, and one in which he is persuaded you will participate, that although the emperor of Germany has felt himself compelled to withdraw from the contest, his Majesty continues to receive from his august ally the emperor of Russia, the strongest assurance of unshaken adherence to that generous and enlightened policy by which he has been actuated; and his Majesty has no doubt that you will be fully sensible of the important advantage to be derived from preserving, at all times, the closest and most intimate connection with that Sovereign.
"His Majesty is most fully persuaded, that whatever pride and confidence you may feel, in common with him, in the uniform success which has distinguished the British arms in the course of the present contest, you will be sensible how much the events of the war on the Continent, by which the predominant power and influence of France have been unhappily extended, require the continuance of all possible vigilance and caution. Under this impression, his Majesty trusts that your attention will be invariably directed to improvement of those means which are to be found in the bravery and discipline of his forces, in the zeal and loyalty of every class of his subjects, and in the unexhausted resources of his great and powerful empire; for rendering him invincible at home, as well as formidable abroad; satisfied, that by such efforts alone the contest can be brought to a conclusion, consistent with the safety and independence of the country and with its rank among the nations of Europe."
DEATH OF MR. PITT.
LONDON, JAN. 23.—Yesterday morning, died, at his house in Putney, the Rt. Hon. WILLIAM PITT, Chancellor of the Exchequer, First Lord of the Admiralty, &c. &c. He had been ill several weeks. His unwearied attention to business, and the lively interest he took in passing events, occasioned an extreme debility in his system, which deprived him of his usual rest, and led to a general breaking up of his constitution.—An hereditary gout, attended by dropsy, and fever, prevented his either taking or retaining food or medicine; and finished his existence on earth. About 48 hours before his decease, his physician requested the Bishop of Lincoln to inform him of his situation; and that his disease was beyond the power of medicine to baffle. He received the information with perfect resignation, made his will, declared his firm reliance upon the mercy of God, and that he died in peace with all mankind.
The Morning Chronicle, the leading paper of Opposition, thus notices the decease of this great man:
"The world are little acquainted with the true character of that distinguished body of men, known by the name of the Opposition, if they impute to them the indulgence of any secret satisfaction on the melancholy loss to his King and Country of a most eloquent and able Statesman. It was not with him that they were at war. They were at war with a system which has marked with calamity every period of his Majesty's reign; which began with making America independent of Great-Britain, and which has now made the continent of Europe dependent upon France!"
"Of the justice of this clear distinction and of the steadiness with which the Opposition have invariably applied it, no proof can so strongly speak as this simple fact—that whenever the illustrious person, who is no more, was at war with that system, HE AND THE OPPOSITION WERE ONE."
"Independent, therefore, of the esteem of many, and the admiration of all, for splendid abilities, and for eloquence rarely equalled, the Opposition, we can venture to say for them individually, as collectively, feel the death of Pitt as a great public calamity."

National Legislature.
NINTH CONGRESS.....FIRST SESSION.
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.
FRIDAY, FEB. 28.
On motion of Mr. Dawson the House resolved itself into a committee of the whole on the state of the union.
The resolutions of a select committee relative to the fortification of ports and harbors were read.
The first resolution appropriates one hundred and fifty thousand dollars to this purpose.
Mr. Dawson advocated the adoption of this resolution.
Mr. Clinton thought the proposed sum insufficient for the purposes contemplated, and particularly as it applied to protecting the harbor of New-York. He thought the posture of our affairs demanded vigorous and liberal measures.
Mr. Smilie moved a postponement of the further consideration of the report. He was of opinion that if the U. S. submitted to the insults and injuries heaped upon them, there was no necessity for incurring the proposed expense. But should the government manifest a becoming spirit of resistance, he would be willing to resort to any measures of defence called for by our situation. He, for this reason, thought it expedient, in the first instance, to decide the course of measures intended to be pursued.
Mr. Cook spoke against the motion of postponement—which was likewise opposed by
Mr. Dawson, who expressed great surprise at the course pursued by gentlemen on this subject. Whenever it had been called up it had been followed by a motion to defer it, notwithstanding the critical state of our affairs. He was of opinion that the subject ought immediately to be acted upon, and that the interest and dignity of the nation were not to be protected by mere declamation.
The question of postponement was then taken and lost.
Mr. Cook moved to insert 300,000 dollars in the room of 150,000 dollars.
Mr. Early moved to strike out 150,000 dollars.
Mr. Bidwell opposed this last motion.—He was willing to make this limited appropriation, as the present object was the repair of existing fortifications. Did the question turn upon making new fortifications, it would require a very different consideration.
The motion to strike out 150,000 dollars was lost.
Mr. Macon then spoke against the resolution. He believed that it went to introduce a system of defence which the nation could not bear. He said the report embraced three modes of defence; by ships of the line, by gun-boats, and by land batteries. To the seventy fouts he was decidedly opposed; with regard to gun-boats he cared very little about them; and he was opposed to the proposed appropriation for fortifications on land.
Mr. Dawson advocated the resolution.
Mr. Cook spoke in favor of the resolution; and made a speech of considerable length, in favor of appropriating a larger sum than that contained in the resolution, and in favor of energetic measures and a naval establishment.
Mr. Early opposed the resolution.
Mr. Varnum spoke in favor of it.
Mr. Clinton moved that the committee should rise, to allow further time for examining the subject.
Mr. Elmer opposed, and Mr. Macon supported this motion, which was carried.
Mr. Dawson gave notice that he would again call up the subject on Thursday next.
MONDAY, MARCH 3.
The Speaker laid before the House a letter from the Secretary of the Treasury transmitting a report, with accompanying statements, in obedience to the resolutions of the House of the 3d, 5th and 7th ult. which were referred to a committee of the whole on the state of the union.
A report from the Treasury gave the Tonnage of the United States for 1804, at about one million of tons.
Portsmouth,
TUESDAY, MARCH 25, 1806.
Latest from Europe.—By an arrival at Boston of the ship John Adams, in 29 days from Liverpool,—London dates have been received to the 12th February. Many interesting extracts are made for this days Gazette;—The following picture of the times is given by Porcupine, and cannot fail to command the attention of our readers. They will contrast their own situation with that of the half starved honest laborers of Britain, and learn how to estimate those men who wish to introduce such an order of things among the high fed independent yeomanry of this happy country.
"As connected with the department of finance (says he) we must remember the state of the poor. Upwards of SIX MILLIONS a year are now raised upon the parishes to be dealt out in aid of those means by which the laborer obtains his bread; and of persons receiving this aid there are upwards of one million!—ALL the laborers having families are now paupers!! This is a new state of things; a state of things which has been produced by the FUNDING and TAXING system pushed to an extreme. Is there any one who will deny, that this is a deplorable state of things, which has rendered ALL the laborers, having families, paupers? The plain fact is, that a man with a wife, and with four children that are unable to work, cannot now, out of his labor, possibly provide them and himself with the means of living. I do not mean, that he cannot live comfortably, for, to comfort, such men have long ago bid farewell; but I assert and am ready to prove, that he cannot provide them, without parish aid, with a sufficiency of food, not to satisfy their cravings, but to sustain life. Will even Old Rose, wallowing in the luxury of eighteen thousand a year, drawn from the public purse, say that nothing ought to be attempted to alleviate these sufferings? There are hundreds of thousands of the people of England who never taste any food but bread and vegetables, and who scarcely ever know what it is to have a full meal even of these!"
"With the United States of America, we have a dispute not easily settled, without an abandonment, on our part, of much of that which we have heretofore contended for and maintained. A pretty equal mixture of arrogance and imbecility, in our ministers, has produced this dispute."
RUMOUR.
A report was in circulation on Saturday last, said to have been received from France, by the way of New London, "that the Emperor Napoleon had been assassinated at one of the public Theatres in Paris; and that several leading members of the government, as well as general officers, were arrested on a suspicion of being agents in the conspiracy. How, or in what manner this report originated we know not. We have an arrival here, from Rotterdam, as late as the 19th Feb. which makes no mention of any event of this kind. (Boston paper.)
The use of air guns and pistols has been prohibited throughout the whole of the French territory, under the most severe penalties.
Bonaparte has adopted all the children of his troops killed at Austerlitz. They are to be supported and educated at the public expence; and to take the name of Napoleon. The widows made by that battle are to be pensioned at the expence of the German Empire.
If the question in this country now were, whether to revive federalism and Adams and Liberty! standing armies and 8 per cent. loans—or to import the emperor Alexander to govern us, the decision would be in favor of the last, for Alexander would honestly own that he was in favor of monarchism and nobility. When he talked about energetic government or religion, we should understand him. If he wanted to oppress the people with wars or taxes, he would whine about it, pretend great friendship for the people and appoint fast-days; but the imperial Alexander would go straight forward.
Federalism is such a double-tongued, double-faced thing, that common people are deceived by it; and as the federal nobles have neither crowns nor coronets, they go slyly to work, raising battery after battery to protect the people from their worst enemies, themselves, and to protect themselves from the people, after they shall be found out.—Hence federalism, with all its disguises, is more dangerous than monarchy; for the last would be disposed of very summarily; but the first can distil its poisons many years into the body politic, before it is detected.
It would be safer to trust the emperor Alexander than any of our builders of stupendous fabric. H. Mer.

From Washington.
ON WEDNESDAY, the 5th inst. the House resolved itself into a committee of the whole on the state of the union, when Mr. Gregg's resolution for a non-importation of British goods was taken into consideration. As we shall give this debate, at as early a period as possible, and very much in detail, we shall at present but briefly notice its character.
It was opened by Mr. Gregg, the mover of the resolution, who took a rapid view of the outrages, insults and oppressions of Britain, which appeared to him to be parts of a system deliberately planned, and which would probably be preferentially adhered to, unless the government of the U. S. should make a decided and spirited stand against them. A non-importation of her goods, a measure altogether pacific, appeared to him the best instrument of recalling her to a sense of her true interest.
Mr. J. Clay followed. He allowed, in their fullest extent, the outrages and injustice of Britain; but he feared that the contemplated measure, so far from inflicting any serious injury on her, would react more injuriously on ourselves, and that it could not for any length of time be adhered to. He declared himself in favor of measures, which though apparently less energetic, would, by forming a part of a permanent and practicable system, prove more efficacious.
Mr. Crowninshield took the same ground with Mr. Gregg. He said the outraged honor and violated interests of our country demanded efficient measures, not of a warlike character, but such as would convince Britain that much as we valued her friendship, we would no longer submit to the degradations accumulated upon us. He was for peace. He believed the present measure eminently calculated to maintain it. Not that he was afraid of war from the effects it would produce. For in war we should be more than a match for Britain. We should make more captures, her provinces would fall, and the debts of her subjects would be at our mercy.
Mr. J. Randolph rose in reply about 2 o'clock, and continued on the floor till 5 o'clock. He pronounced the resolution a war measure, pushed forward by a spirit of merchandise avarice, calculated in its effects at once to expose the U. S. in her most vulnerable point on the ocean; to aid the gigantic strides of Bonaparte, by making France mistress of the ocean; to translate her from the ground on which it became her to stand, and to carry her into maritime contests; and to endanger her liberties and the constitution.
ON THURSDAY, the debate was again resumed at noon, by Mr. N. Williams, who spoke in favor of the resolution.
He was followed by Mr. Masters on the opposite side.
Mr. Smith spoke next in favor of the resolution; when the debate was closed for the day by Mr. J. Randolph, about four o'clock. Nat. Int.
Messrs. Printers, For the Gazette. At a meeting of a respectable number of real republicans, held at Alfred, in York county, it was voted unanimously to support at the ensuing election, on the first Monday in April next, — The
Hon. JAMES SULLIVAN, For Governor, and Hon. WILLIAM HEATH, For Lieut. Governor. SENATORS for York county, Hon. JOSEPH BARTLETT, and ALEXANDER RICE, Esq. Any thing in the federal or mock Republican list to the contrary notwithstanding. —
Messrs. Printers, In my first number, I unintentionally made one mistake, viz. that Mr. Bartlett and Mr. Rice had both been Senators for York county, — Mr. Rice never has been Senator, but only a candidate for that office — Mr. Bartlett has been once, and discharged the trust reposed in him to universal satisfaction. You are therefore requested to correct the error. An Independent Elector.
Messrs. Printers, For the Gazette. The nomination in your last paper of the Hon. JOHN WOODMAN and JOSEPH STORER, Esq. gives much satisfaction to all staunch Republicans in this quarter. The machinations and intrigues of a "would be" senator, have been so scandalous and gross, that every man of any sense of honor despises the man & contempts his conduct; — who would believe, was it not generally known to be a fact, that a candidate for the Senate in this county, would fitter the county to invite a few men to a caucus to nominate himself, and then, as if he was determined to outrage decency, attend the same caucus, and urge the members to persevere in his behalf; — if men thus delinquent even of the outward appearance of propriety, have support, to what are we reducing Republicanism? to the very pitch of contempt; which federalism would reduce it to, — we are assassinating our own cause. CONSISTENCY. Berwick, March 186.
At a numerous meeting of the Republican Citizens, held at Jefferson-Hall, on Saturday evening last it was unanimously agreed to support this day GEORGE WENTWORTH, Esq. for Town Clerk.

***** MR. ALDEN'S ACADEMY AT PORTSMOUTH FOR MASTERS AND MISSES. The object of this institution will be to teach, in separate apartments, both sexes in the same branches, which are usually taught at the most noted academies in the United States; so that the masters shall have opportunity to prepare for the countering room or for college, and the misses for acquiring such an education, as to preclude the necessity of going abroad for that purpose.
As much time will be reserved for vaca-tions and as much also will be devoted to the business of instruction, as is cus-tomary at Exeter Phillips' Academy. Every pupil, who has never been un-der Mr. Alden's tuition, will pay one dol-lar at entrance. The masters will pay seven dollars a quarter. The misses, who attend to the instruc-tions of the preceptor and to common needlework, will pay six dollars a quar-ter. Those, who attend to the orna-mental branches of needlework, will pay the additional sum of a dollar, that is, seven dollars a quarter. Whatever expense may accrue from groom, rent and firewood, will be equally assessed on the pupils. During the sum-mer establishment, this will not probably exceed twenty-five cents for each, a quarter. Mr. Alden will furnish both apart-ments with tables, benches, inkstands, and ink, without a further charge. An accomplished preceptress has alrea-dy been engaged. An assistant precep-tor of education and abilities will also be employed. The building formerly occupied as a museum and printing office, on Demara-gara street, with certain alterations about to be made, will furnish convenient apart-ments for the contemplated institution, which is to be carried into effect on the second Monday in April. Mr. Alden will accommodate a num-ber of misses with boarding, at three dol-lars a week. N.B. All purposing to become mem-bers of this institution, who are desirous of taking lessons on the piano-forte, are requested to give immediate information, that, if the number be competent, an in-structor may be engaged.

State of New-Hampshire. PUBLIC notice is hereby given that the Selectmen of Stuart-town, in the county of Coos and state aforesaid, for and in behalf of the in-habitants of said town, have petition-ed the General Court, representing that great advantages would arise from the opening of roads in the va-rious parts of the uncultivated lands in said town, which would encourage the settlement and increase the value thereof; and that a bridge across Connecticut river in said town, near the mills now existing, would greatly accommodate the public as well as the inhabitants in the vicinity,—They therefore pray the Legislature to grant a tax of three cents on each acre of land in said town (public rights ex-cepted) to be appropriated to the uses aforesaid,—one cent of which towards building said bridge, and two cents for the purpose of opening new roads and building bridges in the unsettled part of the town.
ORDERED, That the petitioners be heard on their petition before the General Court on the first Tuesday of their next ses-sion, and that the petitioners cause that the substance of the petition and order of Court thereon be published in the New-Hampshire Gazette, three weeks successively, commenc-ing eight weeks prior to said hearing; that any person or persons may then appear and show cause, if any they have, why the prayer thereof may not be granted.

PUBLIC notice is hereby given that JACOB PEASLEY and others have petitioned the General Court, re-presenting that the road, as now tra-velled from Charles Hodgdon's in Barnstead, to Jenners' pond in North-wood is very circuitous and moun-tainous, and that a road may be lo-cated, which would shorten the dis-tance two miles (wanting sixty rods) the old road as now travelled, being seven and a half miles, by actual sur-vey, which would be much less hilly, and accommodate the public far bet-ter.—They therefore pray that they and such as may hereafter become proprietors, may be incorporated into a body politic and corporate, with all the powers and privileges incident to corporations of a like nature; for the purpose of purchasing, cutting and laying out a Turnpike Road, four rods wide, from said Hodgdon's to said Jenners' pond, under such restrictions as the Legislature may deem expedi-ent.
ORDERED, that the petitioners be heard on their petition before the General Court, on the first Tuesday of their next session, and that the petitioners cause that the substance of the petition and order of Court thereon, be published in the New-Hampshire Gazette three weeks successively, commencing six weeks prior to said day of hearing, and also cause that a like substance and order be posted up in the several towns through which said road is contemplated to pass, the like term of time prior to said day of hearing, that any person or persons may then appear and show cause, if any they have, why the prayer thereof may not be granted. Attest, JOHN A. HARPER, Clerk of the Senate. Portsmouth, December 28, 1805.
