FROM THE AURORA. Politics for Farmers.—No. 14.
That was a most animating spectacle which was lately exhibited in Baltimore. A musical festival was held, to which each person who chose to be an auditor, subscribed a small sum for admission. The proceeds were destined to purposes of charity—and congenial with so benevolent a purpose, the performers were composed of the members of various christian churches, and the auditors of every religious denomination. In what other country could such a spectacle be seen? Where but in this could the voices of various sects be found united in the sweet concord of charity and toleration? Farmers you owe this all to your principles of government—such concord you could not have seen or heard any where else—the interests of other governments depend upon imposture, religion is employed only as an engine of the state—the machinery of state is constructed upon principles the reverse of concord; it is constructed upon principles of discord. And a state church is employed at once to aggrandize one sect at the expence of all the rest, and to aid by its spiritual influence, the political influence of other classes or factions of oppressors—by the revolution of 1776 you escaped this most impious of all the arts of state quackery.
In Britain (for it is the example held out to us) no one tax is found to consolidate together the energies of such a good government, so well as tythes —that is the tenth part of the produce of every farmer does by law, belong to a clergyman of the established church—no matter whether the farmer belongs to that church or to another. The state church must be supported—because it combines both temporal and spiritual influence. And the established clergy, in return for the favor of the state, act as spies to deliver over, with the assistance of the parish lawyer and parish exciseman, for punishment every declaimer against too much energy in government.
The privileged clergyman adds spiritual excommunication in Britain—to the terrors of regular government. The tythes are nobily paid by the farmer—he be Calvinist or Quaker—Methodist or Seeker—he pays the tenth to the established church.
Suppose a farmer were to rent three hundred acres of land, and offer the clergyman one hundred of them instead of tythes—and besides paying the rent for the clergyman—think you he would accept the land, even with the rent paid?
No, he would not! His tenth of the produce would be better in Britain than one third of the
land after defraying the charges of cultivation—for farmers in England are generally renters—
The farmers in the first place, pay the rent—
Secondly, the land tax, and all the other taxes, we have enumerated in preceding numbers.
Thirdly, the wages of his servants, and the expence of his house and farming utensils.
Fourthly, plowing, manuring and sowing.
Fifth, reaping.
And after the farmer has incurred all this expence and labor—then comes the established clergyman—but not till then!
The farmer, when his wheat is cut must put it up in the field in sheaves of ten in each heap—
Then the clergyman comes and picks out one of the best; if there is one heap in every ten that looks bigger than the others, that is certain to go to the established church.
The farmer is obliged to put his barley, and oats, and hay also in heaps; and the clergyman gathers up every tenth heap in like manner—he takes his choice one out of every ten!
The farmer dares not touch any of his own property, the produce of his labor and expence, till he has given notice to the clergyman; and even then the parson may suffer his tenth parts to remain in the field—48 hours—and the poor farmer dares not turn in his hogs, or his turkeys, or poultry, the while!
These various articles, however, are only what are called the great tythes!
After that the farmer is obliged to pay to the established church a composition for feeding, and pasturing his own cattle, &c. &c.—and these are called the little tythes!
Then for the farmer's wife—
She, poor woman, comes under the parson's clutches.
She must carry to the parson's house every tenth chicken—
Every tenth goose, turkey and duck—
Every tenth egg, and roasting pig—
The tenth of her apples, and peaches, and pears, and cherries.
And more, she must pay a composition for the cabbage, thyme, onions, celery, parsley, &c. &c. of her garden.
If a poor man has only one hen, and that hen hatches seven chickens, the parson takes one notwithstanding; it was not the parson's fault if the hen had not ten instead of seven—the same of the litter of pigs; the same of geese, &c.—the laws give it him.
This must be a stupendous fabric of human wisdom—for the parsons of the established church!!!
Then the clergyman takes the tenth calf—also for the established church.
He has the tenth part of the milk every day.
Or if the parson chooses the whole milk of every tenth day—he may make the choice.
Many a poor calf, and hog, goes with a hungry belly in England, every tenth day—but who will be so jacobinical as to say the government was made for calves? Or that John Bull is only a GREAT CALF for submitting to it?
Then comes Easter dues.
Farmers of America, do you know what Easter dues are?
It is curious to see the poor agricultural laborers (the clodpoles) in Britain, whose children are almost starving, or feeding on their barley cakes, lugging the tenth of their scanty produce, of their gardens—their eggs, their poultry, and with tears, knocking at the door of a minister of a church called Christian!
There is energy for you! "Oh! how degraded are the United States, by a jacobinical democratical government, "such as they now have," said a warmly federal friend lately.
Had the system of 1797, 1798 succeeded, we should have had more energy—and in time, farmers of America, your children might have paid Easter dues—what a misfortune that Burr missed the empire! the vicar general of Mexico no doubt made tythes a part of the convention. It was a part of the Concordat of the quid empire!
Well, the clergyman prefers receiving tythes of one tenth of the produce, rather than to have one third of a plantation for a gift!
But the clergyman of the established church, is a political arithmetician, the taxes are so heavy that he is considerably the gainer, by refusing one third of the land and taking a tenth of the produce.
The farmers often have bad crops in Britain, like other countries—by bad crops, bad harvest, by heavy poor rates,

or the death of his horses and cattle, he is elsewhere a considerable loser, by his farm; and very often his flock is seized to pay the rent, to the "best blood of the country."
You will naturally conclude then, that the parson would make some little allowance; and if the law had neither justice nor generosity in it, that the Christian parson would have some little feeling—that he would come in for some little share of the loss.
But no, not a cent—the church like the king can do no wrong—the church of England is not like the pope infallible—it can only do no wrong.
The farmer might be ruined, his wife and family turned out of doors, his children crying for bread, but the parson's crop much or little; be the weather wet or dry—sweeps off wheat, hay, barley, calves, turkeys, ducks, geese, hogs, eggs, apples, pears, and partridges!
The farmer may starve, but the tythe must be paid.
This is the system held up for your admiration, more admirable than the discovery of the compass and all that—that this is the state you farmers of America would have been reduced to ere long, had it not been for Jefferson's election and the wise democratic policy of his administration.
Tythe and excisemen proctors always go hand in hand—they are the chief support, the janizaries of energetic government—read this brief statement—it contains a monument that ought to excite more curiosity and astonishment than the existence of the pyramids of Egypt—for its stupendous base.
When the British agents and papers, and spies, and Cullens call for an energetic government, they mean by it, all which we have enumerated—and more that we shall enumerate.
Many federalists who no. nothing of Britain or British government but by hearsay—federalists really well meaning men, but who fancy themselves, "a little bit of blood," those poor deluded men, we have seen gaping and swallowing and crediting the "cock and bull stories" of British spies—and believing every report of Britain which the papers in Britain pay relate.
Are those federalists ready to bend the neck to the taxes and the tythes we have enumerated.
Our expositions in the farmer's politics, we are happy to find cut close—there are wretches up for hire who advertise themselves by reviling farmers politics—they cannot controvert, they cannot deny the truth of a fact stated in them—but they are banking after the "flesh pots"—and they reprobate these essays as an unfortunate class of another sex hang out a signal.
And why, because we relate facts, undeniable facts, which cannot be palliated.
It has been said, without contradiction, that Parson Williams, of Northampton, brother-in-law to Gov. Strong, in a late sermon, declared, that republican candidates were damn'd rascals!
Doubtless, the gentlest reproof for this pollution of the pulpit would be killed, by him and his friends, an abuse of Christ's minister!
Doubtless, many dupes of federalism received the parson's words as genuine gospel—as truly apostolic preaching!
I remember to have read, some time ago, a price current of absolutions, as the clerical market stood in the zenith of papal power. From this it appeared, that, in two cases, men might obtain absolution on the following terms, viz.
For striking a priest, 5 0 0 For killing a layman, 0 5 0
By comparing this with recent facts, it appears that ancient popery is both revived and improved, in modern federalism.
For giving a priest the lie, major Babcock was obliged to give one thousand dollars merely for temporal absolution.
For wilfully killing a young man, Selfridge is obliged to give nothing! Ib.
From the Chronicle.
Nec vera virtus, cum semel excidit, Curat repenti deterioribus.
HORACE'S ODES.
It may appear very irrelevant, for me to hazard a few remarks relative to the conduct of those, who govern and lead youth in the meanders of literature; but the conduct of this class of people ought to be looked to, with a scrutinizing eye, lest they should stray and bend the dispositions of all their pupils to their own, and perhaps make them more or less miserable through their probationary state. Politics seem to have made their way into our Colleges and Academies, which certainly is counteracting the purposes for which they were established:—Some undoubtedly say, I cannot support the proposition; but I will endeavor to prove it in the abstract.
Colleges and Academies are instituted for the improvement of youth in erudition, morality and piety, towards God; likewise to give that independence of thought, which emphatically speak-
ing, is the basis of civil liberty; but how perverted! alas how fallen! We see instructors walking our streets preaching politics—that is telling their students that revolt and disaffection to our present administration is allowable—and even, that it is glorious to dip their pens in the cup of calumny; and shoot the arrows of defamation at our PRESIDENT. Political discussions ought not to enter the walls of our seminaries; they bias the mind so that it never can regain that liberty, which is essentially requisite for the support of our immunities. A scholar generally swallows with avidity, what his teacher tells him, let it be ever so distant from reason and propriety—if he tells them Demos are villains, and with to sap the constitution—they heedlessly believe him. If he speaks disrespectfully of our chief magistrate—they at once open their batteries of virulence and malignity: if you ask them from whence they drew those opinions, we drew those opinions, they at once answer from our Instructors ; and often times, I have heard them comment on the discourse delivered to them, by him, who heard them recite in Burlemque , saying that monarchy was the best government for men of education—and, it was pleasant to bask in the sunshine of royalty. When such sentiments as these fall from the lips of reverend men, or those cloaking themselves with reverence, they are apt to sink deep in the hearts of the young and unexperienced—and if any possesses independence of principle, that in any way tends to Republicanism, he is thrown off as unworthy, he is treated with neglect—he receives not that attention from his superiors in his Collegiate or Academic studies, that his federal school-mates do.
O! how long will you continue to make turbid the Pisan fountain? How long to pervert and deprave the good sense of those just blessings in science? May the happy day soon arrive when you may devote your whole attention, to your pupils; when you may set under the tree of knowledge and teach them those sublime truths, which emanate from divinity.—
Let Instructors remember, that "The wise man's folly is anatomized, Ev'n by the squandering glance of a fool."

Foreign Intelligence.
CONSTANTINOPLE, JAN. 30. Becher Pacha is to command all the Turkish troops in the Dardanelles, and the fleet is under his direction. Besides the vessels of war before Constantinople, nine others are preparing for sea with dispatch. The Ottoman troops have gained some advantages over the Russians in Silistria. The commandant has sent here many heads which have been, according to the ancient custom, exposed, on the 23d Jan. upon the principal gate of the Seraglio.
POSEN, FEB. 18. M. Louis de Malachowsky, officer of the guard of honour, has arrived here, and brings the following letter, dated 13th Feb. at Eylau, by the Prince of Neuchatel to the General of division and Governor of the city and department of Posen:—"M. General, I send you a Polish officer who can attest to you the falsehood of the account which the Russians and Prussians gave of the battle of the 8th of this month. After having lost 20 thousand men and 10 generals, they pretended to have taken Eylau at the point of the bayonet. The truth is, the Russians are totally dispersed. We have never quitted Eylau, where we are still. They have been chased three times from Eylau. Thirty pieces of cannon and a considerable number of prisoners are the reward of the victory. Three hours ago, the enemy had began their retreat towards Konigsberg. I request the administration of Posen to send us supplies to Thorn. The bearer of this letter, a Polish officer, after having delivered his message at Posen, will return hither to give an account to the Emperor."
HAMBURGH, FEB. 28. Letters from Dantick of 13th Feb. say, in consequence of late events, we expect the French soon against this place.
MARCH 4. Letters from Copenhagen say, that the Emperor of Russia has been obliged already to call troops from Asia to defend Poland against the French. We learn from Mamel that several corps of Asiatic troops had reached the army of Benigsen.
VIENNA, FEB. 26. The minister of foreign affairs, Count Stadion, has sent to the ministers of England and Russia, a note, in which he complains, in the name of our sovereign, of the vexations which the commanders of the English and Russian squadrons in the Adriatic gulph occasion to the vessels which carry the Austrian flag. He has given notice of the illegal capture of many merchant vessels belonging to Trieste, and has insisted that these vessels should be restored. We are assured that the English and Russian ministers declared their friendly dispositions to the Austrian Government, and promised to make immediate representations of the complaints of Count Stadion to their respective courts.
MENTZ, MARCH 3. We are assured, that agreeably to the orders of the Emperor, the last session of the Grand Sanhedrin will be on the 2d of next May. We learn, that at a dinner given on the dinner given on the 21st of last month by the Archchancellor of the Empire, the Chief of the Grand Sanhedrin was placed at table between the Archbishop of Paris, and the President of the Consistory of the Reformed Religion.
PARIS, MARCH 9. We are told that the English have declared Trieste in a state of blockade. As this would be open hostility with Austria, it needs confirmation.
The French have published a letter taken with dispatches sent to Petersburg, said to be dated at Braunshweig, and addressed to M. Corder de Lunay, Secretary of the Emperor of Russia at Feige-burg, and signed Alstof. The letter is given as dated on 26th Feb. and the French have made several remarks upon it. After confessing the object to get to Berlin, and the great losses sustained in the action at Eylau, and that the recruits were new raised troops, it mentions that the Russians did not appear to meet their enemy with enthusiasm, and to complain that their blood was spilt for British gold, and that wishes for peace were expressed: it adds, We have an able and enterprising general in the field against us, and we may expect a general and vigorous attack as soon as the season will permit.—Upon this last paragraph the French observe, "The attacks which have been made upon the Russians, when the season did not permit, ought to give them an idea of what they must suffer when the season will permit. During a winter, rainy and unsettled, amidst frosts and thaws, mud, ice and snow, in constant succession, all operations, calculations and movements have been uncertain. The Russians have seen an able and enterprising General profiting from the most unfavourable circumstances. If he has made them pass so uncomfortable a winter, when they had the choice and the advantage of their positions, a knowledge of the country and the habits of the climate, what may they not expect, when the season will permit in his calculations that precision which have hitherto rendered them infallible."
The Gazettes from Pressburg, which announced the passage of the Russian army near Widdin, contradicts the report, and affirms, that Michelon had but 30,000 men, and contemplated to fortify against the Turks, and not to advance. A great part of the troops with which he entered Moldavia, had received sudden orders to march for Poland. It was expected that while the emperor Napoleon engaged the Russians in Poland, he would make a powerful diversion in favour of his allies the Turks. The same gazettes speak of the approaching Diet of Hungary as essentially pacific.
By the accounts from Turkey they have been sufficiently aware of the war, and were making the greatest preparations by land and by sea. They were constructing batteries on the coast, and the Fleet on 25th January amounted to 30 sail, with 8 ships of the line. The armed vessels expected by the tributary powers would amount to 30 besides.
PARIS, FEB. 17.
GRAND SANHEDRIN. The Grand Sanhedrin has opened its session. His Excellency the Minister of the Interior has appointed to preside in this religious assembly, the Rabbi David Sinzheim, of Strasburg—respectable for his age, his character his learning, and his piety. The Rabbins Segre and Cologna, both known by their valuable theological and literary productions, have been named, the one as first assessor ( ab bet din ) the other as second assessor ( charecam ). M. Segre is municipal counsellor at Verceil, Piedmont; Cologna, ex-legislator in Italy, is now member of the electoral college of that country.
On the day of Feb. at 11 o'clock, the members of the Sanhedrin met with their chief, and went in procession to the Grand Synagogue. They were attended by the members of the first assembly. Here a prayer suitable to the occasion was distributed, written in Hebrew and French—a Hebrew hymn, composed by the Rabbi, Segre, first assessor. Then an ode in Hebrew translated into Italian and Latin, by the Rabbi Zamerrani, member of the Sanhedrin, and was named the 2d assessor. foreign correspondent of the medical faculty of emulation at Paris. The President, Sinzheim, pronounced a discourse in Hebrew, which was heard by the assembly with warm emotions.—Then after having recited many sacred texts he drew from the tabernacle the book of the Law, and blessed the assembly, making at the same time an affecting prayer for our immortal emperor—for the glory of his arms and the return of peace. The Temple resounded with cries of "Long live the Emperor—the Empress—the Imperial family, and the brave French army." Cologna, second assessor, pronounced in Italian, a sermon, which produced the most lively sensations. It turned in a great measure upon the union of religion with the civil, moral and political duties of man—of the citizen and the subject. The elegance and warmth of language, the firm persuasive tone of the orator, caused a general enthusiasm among the hearers, among whom were some distinguished citizens. The Rabbi Cracovia of Venice, also delivered a well written discourse, in which he gives an account of the origin of the Sanhedrin and pay a tribute of homage to the immortal monarch who has renewed its existence for a moment among us.
The temple was adorned with propriety and elegance by the care and zeal of Aaron Schmol, deputy to the first assembly for the department of the Seine, and a lay member of the Sanhedrin.
The first religious ceremony being over, they adjourned to the Hôtel de Ville, where the hall destined to the session of the first Israelitish deputation, was prepared for holding the session of the Sanhedrin, in a manner conformable to ancient religious usage. Mr. Avigdor read the proceedings verbal recognizing their powers, and drawn up by the commission of him in presence of the commissioners of his Imperial and Royal Majesty. Michael Beer an advocate member of the first assembly, and of many learned societies, one of the scribes appointed by his excellency the minister of the interior, was charged by the chief of the Sanhedrin to read and explain the proceedings verbal. Jacob Lazarus and Moses Levi, members of the commission of nine, not elected into the Sanhedrin, were named inspectors of the hall.—The chief of the Sanhedrin ordered a French discourse of his own composition, to be read by Mr. Avigdon. This oration filled with liberal and pious sentiments, made a lively impression. Mr. Fuksado, president of the first assembly, read the preamble and articles of the three first points of doctrine, proper to the Sanhedrin, upon Polygamy, Divorce and Marriage. This was preceded by a lengthy report, in which taking a lofty range of reflections and observations, the orator justified his character for talents, so generally acknowledged.
The Rabbi Cacovia, reporting, and Mr. Ben Isaac Ben, member of the commission of nine, delivered the same lecture in Hebrew. Mr. Michael Ben read the proceedings verbal of installation, which was adopted. The chief immediately named two deputies, to communicate with the minister of the interior and the commissaries. He then adjourned the Sanhedrin, and according to the general intentions of the regulations, the first deliberation was adjourned for eight days.
All admired the order which reigned in this first session of an assembly, whose object it is to restore to happiness a class of men miserable and persecuted for such a length of time.
This ceremony has excited a general interest and curiosity, as well for its novelty, as on account of the great man who has revived an assembly, without example in the history of modern exhibitions.

VIRG. NORFOLK, April 12.
Brig Eliza Henry, Perry, 24 days from Antigua, furnishes the following iniquitous proceedings in the prize court at Antigua:
"On the 3d March was captured by the British armed schooner Grooper, and after taking my papers, ordered me to follow him into St. Johns (Antigua) and to anchor in the roads. Next day I asked permission to go on board an American sch. taken at the same time, and was refused to quit the vessel, and was immediately ordered up the harbor, where we came to anchor. I immediately went ashore, and called on the American Consul to know why the brig was detained, who told me that she was cleared; in consequence of which I sent to the king's agent to know if it was the case, as I wanted my papers, who sent me word he did not know whether she was cleared or not. On the 5th I again went to the Consul, who told me she was detained; and on the 7th I was informed by him that my cargo was labelled. On the 9th employed a lawyer, who sent for the libel to examine it, who said the libel could not be labelled; and on the 12th putting my claim, got the vessel's papers for my lawyer, who, after minutely investigating them, said there was no legal grounds for detaining vessel or cargo. Notwithstanding this illegal detention, the king's attorney demanded of me 212 pounds for costs, &c. which I agreed to on their giving me documents to show that I paid the above sum; this was peremptorily refused; upon which I demanded a trial, which took place on the 18th, when I was ordered to pay the costs, which, with my own charges for defending the cause, amounted to £437 16, for which sum I was obliged to draw bills on my owners, and was then graciously allowed to get off with a whole skin!"
Manufactures and Fisheries.
At this moment, when the destruction of most of the foreign fisheries has been occasioned by the wars of Europe, and when our fisheries have been consequently increased, it is a curious and important fact, that the return of exports for the last year states the manufactured articles at 2,700,000 dollars, and the fishery articles at 3,100,000 dollars: Where it a season of peace, the manufactures would be equal—But the consumption of manufactured articles within our country is far greater than that of fishery articles.—Manufactures are therefore incomparably more important than the fisheries, but both interests should be wisely and fairly assisted. If England continues or increases her injuries to our trade by sea, our manufactures will rise on the consequent sacrifice of her internal industry.

BOSTON, MAY 7.
Great and Glorious News!
We congratulate our friends on the success of the Republican ticket in the city of N. York. Poor Rufus King, "the greatest man in America," as his British friends have repeatedly called him, must wait a little longer before he will become a very formidable rival to our beloved and patriotic President. If there must be a federal candidate, let it be Elsworth, of Connecticut; Ross, or even Governor Morris himself! There would be consistency at least in such a preference. Rufus King is the last royalist in America who is entitled to this elevated station.
The following paragraphs are from the New York papers:
TRIUMPH OF PRINCIPLE.
The Republican Ticket for members of assembly has prevailed in this city by a majority of 501 votes.
In King's County, Tompkins had a majority of 82 votes.
Mr. Hicks, Republican candidate for assembly, 94 votes.
We learn from a gentleman from Queen's County, that the Republican Assembly Ticket had succeeded by a handsome majority; and the republican majority for governor was about 240.
We think we speak moderately when we say that Tompkins (the Republican Candidate) will be elected by a majority of 5000. The Combination—We had to contend against the federalists—Lewites—Burrists, and negroes!—all bundled!
The federalists naturalized about 400 Scotch royalists!
The federalists so managed as to secure nineteen-twentieths of the black votes. In the seventh ward they brought up negroes and negroes two and two in federal batches, which were labelled "American ticket"—filled with "American" lads and lasses! The Tories, Burrists, Lewites, and negroes have moved Heaven and earth, and not a little of Hell to effect their purposes, but the quadruple alliance is defeated. The fifth ward has recovered its ancient republican character. Our friends in that ward deserve well of their country.—The republicans in every part of the city have done their duty.
OCEAN MASSACRE,
Or Van Rensselaer murdered—a TO. RT tale—The Tories say that Van Rensselaer, of Albany, is murdered by a republican, and wish to get a few votes by the murder!
Now these fellows have no occasion to rejoice, for Van Rensselaer's living, although had he been killed, if my information be correct, the killing would have been perfectly justifiable.
Van R. coming behind Mr. Jenkins in the street, attacked him with his cane—knocked him down—kicked him in the stomach while down, and almost killed him. Mr. J. is now attended by his surgeons.
Having done this brutal deed, Van R. ran about the streets of Albany swearing he "had done it for one democratic rascal, and would do it for another." Thus thirsting for blood, according to my information, he accosted Judge Tayler—abusively applied to him opprobrious epithets, which the Judge resented; and each having a cane they approached, when a battle ensued between them. In this Judge Tayler gave it to Van R. to his heart's content.
[Citizen.]
Portsmouth,
TUESDAY, MAY 12, 1807.
SUMMARY—FOREIGN.
It is difficult to continue the history of European affairs beyond the commencement of March last. According to the French accounts the utmost prospect of success attended the French armies. The French had ventured on the siege of Stralsund, and at the same time were operating against Colberg and Danzig. The fortresses of Silistria were submitting to their arms, and the main army was directing its strength against Konigsberg, at which the wars in Prussia were expected to end. Already we have detected many exaggerations in the different accounts, and therefore we are obliged to report with great caution the first accounts, especially when they are given from those who may have any interest to answer in suffering any temporary deception of the public mind. We see no reason to report any interruption to the success of the French arms. What the state of the fortifications around Konigsberg may be, cannot be known from any documents we possess. The late accounts say that the rampart with which it is surrounded, is not two German miles in circumference, and is reckoned short of 7 English miles, and that it had 32 ravelins and 8 gates, and these works were raised nearly two centuries ago, in the same year in which the Elector received the investiture of Prussia. The population in 1781, was 54,000. The French troops had approached very near to this city; and the Russians, according to the last accounts from Eylau, had directed their march towards it, so that an action in this quarter may be seriously expected. In the Turkish manifest no notice was taken of the allies of Russia, but it is now said that the Turks have declared war against England. The protection given to the Russian minister in an English ship, and the continuance of the ship in view of Constantinople, must have assured the Emperor what he had to expect from the ally of Russia, especially as the intercourse between Turkey and France was known throughout Europe. We are now to see whether the predictions or wishes of Catherine or of Bonaparte are to be answered in the expulsion of the Turks or of the Russians from Europe.
Reports now are, that the English have availed themselves of reinforcements and have gained possession of Montevideo, in Spanish South-America. How much the English expected from the conquest of the provinces upon the Plata, may be easily discovered from the joy expressed upon the arrival of the news that the expedition had been successful, and from the great commercial arrangements which were reported as consequent upon the expected conquest. The fate of the officer who directed the expedition upon the expulsion of the English, discovers the national disappointment. Whether British pride will at length prevail over Spanish obstinacy, is to be known when a particular history of the transactions in the Spanish provinces can be obtained. The success of the Spaniards had all its praise in Spain and among the allies of that nation. And even in Great Britain, in which "appeals had been made in printed pamphlets to the honor and conscience of the nation upon the necessity of the immediate restitution of the Spanish Plata ships," some men could be found averse feelings triumphed over their patriotism, in full praise of Spanish valour in the recovery of Buenos Ayres.

Peace with Tunis.
A letter from Capt. Campbell of the United States frigate Constitution, dated Syracuse Feb. 15, 1807, says, "I left Tunis, the 26th ult. and I am happy to inform you, that our affairs with that Regency are amicably and honorably adjusted, placing us on a footing with the most favored nation."
OF MONTE VIDEO.
Capt. Brown, who has arrived at New-York, from the River-Plate, which he left the 29th of January, brought accounts which are in corroboration of those we have before given from that quarter. He mentioned, that the British had been besieging Monte Video, for 14 days previous to his sailing, and that they were bombarding the town, when he came out of the roads.
A Dutch gentleman, who came passenger in the vessel arrived at Providence from St. Salvador, says, He saw the squadron commanded by captain Donelly, having the army under Gen. Auchmuty on-board, at St. Salvador; knows it failed from thence on the 22d December, for the River of Plate; and from the direction of the wind after it failed, is confident it must have arrived in the River early in January. The troops he says, appeared to be in excellent spirits; and he adds, that letters had been received at St. Salvador, previous to his departure, which mentioned the capture of Monte Video as certain. [Cont.]
Accounts from Hayti, [St. Domingo] state, that a battle was expected about the beginning of April, between the forces of the rival Presidents of that island, Christophe, who commands the blacks, and Petion, who commands the men of colour.
In the town and neighbourhood of Waterford, (Ireland) no less than fifty thousand Hogs were killed and salted for bacon for exportation to England, in the year 1806, in addition to the usual large quantity annually taken for the navy and army.
Remarkable Whirlwind.
On Wednesday last, about three o'clock took place the most tremendous hurricane or whirlwind ever experienced in this county. At the Fork Meeting-house, called Methodist Meeting, near the dwelling of Aquilla Hall, Esq. where swept away seventeen houses and several large trees and fences were swept off—in fact, not a single vestige left in that thriving place except the meeting-house and dwelling house of C. Gorfuch. The hurricane continued its course from thence northerly across the falls of gunpowder to Harford county; and, lamentable to tell! the devastation committed in blowing down trees and fences, and entirely destroying the property of David Lee, junr. living near the Friends' meeting-house, in said county, &c. [Balt. Amer.]
Six bridges, a few mills, and other property, have been destroyed by the late Freshets near Windsor, (Vt.).
The Richmond Enquirer, on the subject of a new President says, "It is now almost reduced to a certainty, that Mr. Jefferson will retire from the Presidential chair, at the expiration of his present term. The first wish of our hearts must necessarily be, that his successor may be not less able and virtuous than himself." After a discussion of the circumstances of another choice, it adds, "Let no man be supported who is not a most decided opponent of Federal principles. He must be one that has been tried by the unerring test of experience; bleached by the hoary hand of time, and his principles attested by many winters of federal persecution."
The treaty is now a subject of speculation. What has become of it? Upon what terms have the negotiations been continued, or for what object? When we recollect what has been said in past times on the same subject, and know how severe would be the censures on the government should any embarrassments arise to Commerce from hasty and indirect measures, and therefore how much depends upon these treaties for our national quiet, we feel a just acquiescence in every measure which tends to gain the fullest information, at least, on the subject of all our claims. But that the present times are less promising to negotiations, when the embarrassments of the British government have in no respect lessened, and when not any facts appear to prove them so, is a supposition which sound policy ought not to indulge, while one hope of one claim can exist. Be the ministry what it may, be the time what it may, a commercial people should consider that to define their rights or their claims should be their first object, and their invariable pursuit.—The sooner the better. [Salem Reg.]
OUR BEST FRIENDS.
Extract of a letter from Bermuda, dated the 9th ult.
The ship Titus, and part of her cargo has been condemned—also, the ship Cicero, vessel and cargo; the Baltic and Apollo will both be condemned. Two vessels are sent in here outward bound, one from New-York, and one from Alexandria; fourteen sail of American vessels are detained here and condemned."
It behoves the eastern and middle states immediately to apply to manufacturers, in order to be prepared for the hostility of the new British administration. The new manifesto cannot be called war in disguise—its true character is this—England must maintain the monopoly of the commerce of the world, and no trade with any country shall be carried on when it interferes with her monopoly; this is the sense of the pamphlet, for this she has made war for two centuries. She is at present at war with Spain, Naples, Italy—France, Flanders, Holland, Germany, &c. &c. And her treaty of peace and commerce with us had scarcely been signed in December last when she issued out an order of her privy council—to take all neutral ships, if trading with any of these countries—that is to say, if any American ship should not sell her cargo in Spain, she must try the French or Dutch market, without being captured; if she meets a British ship of war, ship and cargo are condemned—all our trade with the countries of Europe is by this act of the British privy council, put as much from under the laws of civilization, as if we were a nation of pirates.

GAZETTE MARINE LIST.
Portsmouth, May 12, 1807. Tuesday arrived, brig Hitty, Clarkson, 34 days from Demerara.
Wednesday arrived, brig Ulysses, Capt. Hutchings, from Demerara via St. Thomas'—left at Demerara, April 5, brig Reward, McIntock, brig Polly, Manson, and brig Washington, Blunt, of all this port; brig Liberty, Perkins, of Kennebec, and brig Hunter of Portland—with a number of other American vessels.
Thursday arrived, sch'r Three Friends, Capt. Trefethen, in 14 days from St. Thomas'—cargo, Coffee, Sugar, and Molasses. A Plymouth sch'r supposed to be bound to Kennebec, with flour, corn, &c. has been wrecked on Seguin. It is thought the people were saved, as she appeared to be stripped of her rigging, &c.
Capt Wm. Chase, arrived at Boston in sch'r Midas, from Saco, informs, that on the 7th May inst. at 9 A.M. he discovered a light sch'r. of about 150 tons, flanking on the same course with him; and that at 2 P.M. the sch'r came up abreast of him, distant about half a mile, when she upset; T. at he immediately hove to, and sent the boat to her assistance, but could only save one man, John Simonds, who reported, that the vessel was the sch'r William, Job Anderson, master, from Portland, for Beverly, and that the names of the persons drowned from her, were, Capt. Job Anderson, John Staples, and Robert Carter; these being all the people on board, excepting himself, when she upset.
The brig Rambler, Pope, failed from Tobago, April 15 for Wells; and Olive Branch, for this port, the 19th April.
The sch'r Jones Eddy, Harrold, from Trinidad for this port, is ashore on Plumb Island; the vessel will be got off without much injury, and the cargo saved.
ORDAINED —At Dover, on Wednesday last, the Rev. Mr. C. H. SHERMAN, to the pastoral charge of the church and congregation of the first parish in that town.
The prayer, introductory to the solemn exercises of the day, was made by the Rev. Abiel Abbot of Beverly.
The Rev. Thaddeus M. Harris of Dorchester, delivered a sermon, from 1 Timothy, iv. 12. "Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in faith, in purity." The consecrating prayer was made by the Rev. John Thompson of Berwick. The charge was delivered by the Rev. Benjamin Batch of Barrington. The fellowship of the churches was conferred by the Rev. Samuel Chandler of Kittery; and the concluding prayer was made by the Rev. Dr. Buckminster, of Portsmouth.
The exercises of the day, generally, were appropriate, solemn and impressive. The sermon which we fondly hope will be shortly presented to the public, was in itself truly evangelical, and exhibited specimens of pulpit oratory, which must be read with pleasure, by the votaries of true religion, and the judges of erudition and taste. The music was observed, by the lovers of harmony, to have been extremely fine. The assembly convened on this joyful occasion, was very numerous and brilliant; and observed a silence and decorum, during the exercises, which reflect on them the highest honor. The friends of Zion will rejoice, that the churches of our GOD continue to be supplied with pastors, we trust, after his own heart. Dover Sun.
MARRIED —In this town, Mr. Henry Sweet to Miss Hannah White.

Getting up early in a cold gloomy morning, (quite enough already, you'll say; but that's not half of it) Getting up early in a cold gloomy morning, I say, and on running down into the breakfast room for warmth and comfort, finding chairs, tables, shovels, tongs, and fender, huddled into the middle of the room—dust flying in all directions—carpet tossed backwards—floor newly washed—windows wide open—bees-wax, brush and rubber in one corner—brooms, mops, and pails in another—and a dingy Drab on her knees, before an empty grate.
Squatting plump on an unsuspicious cat in your chair.
Just as you have finished dressing yourself more nicely than usual, to receive company at dinner—creeping down into a dark, damp cellar for wine; and unexpectedly finding from a sudden chill about the lower part of the leg, that you are going by water. Vainly hunting, a thousand times over, in every corner, crook, and cranny of the house, for some thing you have lost; till, at some future period, when you have long abandoned the pursuit, the truant article appears of its own accord.
Flapping at an expiring fire with an asthmatic pair of bellows.
Setting a razor upon a fancy hone. The handle of a full tea-cup coming off in your hand, as you are raising it to your mouth.
Shaving after a frosty walk, (when the face is pimpled, skin tender, and hand tremulous) with cold pump water, hard brush, rosy soap, and a blunt razor. Likewise, shaving, with a blister behind each of your ears.
Entering your watch at the wrong opening, when it instantly dives to your knee, where, for want of a lucky opportunity to extricate it, you continue to wear it.
Legislation.—When the Bill for regulating the practice of Medicine and suppressing quackery was before the house of representatives of Pennsylvania, a member observed,
If I chuse to but my life indo de bans of one of dese quacks, it is no-pody's piffness; pecause I know some of dese quacks cure pigger cures as any of de pig doctors—Mr. Sbeecker, I pleve some of dese pig doctors kill more beebles dan dese Quacks, pecause dey use stronger medicines."
The above speech was the only one against the bill, and the bill was rejected. [Philad. paper.]
ANECDOTES.
IT being said England was under a blockade, an Irish wag observed, that England had been for forty six years under a blockhead.
A countryman being on the London road, but not knowing it, chanced to meet a Quaker, whom he accosted as follows: "This is not the road to London, is it?" "Pray what is thy meaning?" said the Quaker—"Thou first tellest me a lie, and then thou askest me a question."
A reverend divine, who resides not many miles from Worcester, lately asked a youth of his parish if he thought they had any preaching in Hell?—The boy replied, that he had not information on which he could rely, but he imagined they had a plenty of Ministers! [Worcester paper.]

OTEZ! OTEZ! OTEZ!
WHEN the attention of the public is solicited by the author of a recent discovery, and in declaiming on its virtues he becomes the panegyrist of his own merits, he will naturally incur the imputation of vanity; but it is not impossible that with such a defect, more noble qualities may be united. Instead, therefore, of judging liberally respecting the motives of those who make themselves the heroes of their own tale, ought we not rather to encourage individuals of active and cultivated minds, to present us with the details of their professional progress, with the fruits of their experience, and with the results of their matured reflections.
DENNISON'S
Improved Jaundice Bitters;
OR THE
GRAND ANTIBILOUS CORRECTIVE.
The Jaundice is discovered by want of appetite, colliveness, dullness and oppression, at times an irritable propensity for sleep, and at others, too great watchfulness, a yellowness is by degrees diffused over the complexion, tinges the urine, and the whole mass of the fluids are infected with bilious secretions, and in process of time the blood acquires a tendency to dissolution and putrefaction; in these cases it either degenerates into a dropsy or ends in an apoplexy.
They are particularly serviceable in habitual colliveness, and in an oppressed and weak stomach. They are gratefully warm and pungently aromatic; expel wind in the easiest manner, without immoderately heating or inflaming the bowels; they are extremely serviceable in all seasons, but in the course of my practice I have proved them particularly so on the approach of warm weather, when bilious habits experience such a total loss of appetite, littlestuffs and oppression; in such instances, by the application of this remedy the stomach is invariably fortified, appetite and digestion effectually promoted, and plentiful perspiration produced. Being peculiarly adapted to cleanse the urinary passages, they are singularly serviceable in dropsies, by giving tone to the solids, enriching the blood, and invigorating the whole system. From their celebrity as an antidote against the scurvy, they are particularly calculated for seafaring persons, to whose attention they are respectfully recommended. Persons leading sedentary inactive lives, are most subject to these complaints. All, therefore, in such situations, though not immediately aware of inconveniences, would act wisely by securing a continuance of health, by means of this generous stomachic, as well as all epitures and bon vivants who wish for a delicious and delicate preparative for the appetite, the best companion at the festive board. These Bitters are sold by the sole agent, at No. 48, Newbury-Street, corner of Winter-Street, Boston, N. England, who has authorized some person as Vendor in all the principal towns in the New-England States,—viz.—Mr. CHARLES PEARCE, for Portsmouth, and Mr. JOSIAH GILMAN, for York, by whom the above may be had Wholesale and Retail.
ALSO FOR SALE AS ABOVE.
