TAKE NOTICE.
THE several Collectors in the County of York unto whom hath been a County Tax for the last year 1808, and the present year committed them to collect, that the time is long since passed away when the former ought to have been collected and paid into the Treasury and settled for; and the latter the one half of it was ordered by the Court to be collected and paid over to the Treasurer by the first day of November next, in order to enable him to pay off some of the demands now existing, also to pay the several Grand and Traverse Jurors bills at the next Supreme Judicial Court and January Court close following on. The several Grand and Petit Jurors bills only for the last year amounted to 4222 dollars 89 cents, exclusive of the building the Court House and all other bills taxed through the year; therefore it is requested that every one who are still indebted will call at my office and settle up each one for himself, and bring in every one of my orders drawn on each one of you for any part of said tax, which will be received as cash, and that will save you Sheriff's fees. The unhappy situation of the banks hath been in such a fluctuating state it has made great difficulties with the citizens both for the receiver and payer to know how to transact any business in safety. It is however hoped that the collected wisdom of our several legislatures will devise a speedy remedy for those evils; notwithstanding I have been enabled in the course of the past year to pay out of the Treasury 6340 dolls. 59 cts. William Frost, Treasurer. York, October 21, 1809.

300 DOLLARS REWARD.
Extremely interesting to the Public. THE Patentee to a much celebrated Bileous Pills, called and known by the name of "Dr. Lee's (Winham) Bileous Pills," is under the disagreeable necessity of making known to the public, that many spurious Pills bearing his name, are in circulation in the New England States, more particularly in the town and vicinity of Boston, one John Crosby of Ashby, in the State of Massachusetts, has had much to do in circulating these spurious Pills—Dealers in Wines and the public at large will do well to be on their guard against his impositions in future. This Crosby is not furnished by me or my agents with my genuine Pills, but has for some time past been in the habit of making and vending Pills, as and for my patent Bileous Pills. Some others have been conducting much in the same manner. A strict enquiry is now making as to their facts, and the offenders (whoever they may be) that have been thus imposing on the public, as well as on myself, shall be prosecuted to the utmost extremity of the law. To put a stop to this nefarious practice of imposing on the public, by offering them spurious Pills bearing my name—I hereby offer a reward of THREE HUNDRED DOLLARS to any person who will detect and convict any person or persons making and vending my patent Bileous Pills; and that the public may be perfectly secure against such impositions in future, they are particularly to observe, that each bill of directions which accompany my genuine Bileous Pills, is signed by myself in my own hand writing, to counterfeit which would be felony. If purchasers would only notice this remark, they would seldom be imposed upon by counterfeiters, as it is to be presumed that no one would have the hardihood to forge my name to my bill of directions. The spurious Pills are accompanied with directions which have no signature to them. The Druggists in all the large towns in the Eastern States have been waited upon by an agent of the Patentee, who has pointed out to them the spurious Pills, so that they know how to avoid them; and also informed them where they can always be supplied with my genuine Bileous Pills—and it is to be presumed, that after being thus notified, no Druggist will ever attempt to impose on the public, by offering them the spurious Pills even though they be so unfortunate as to have some by them. Printers, who may be called upon to print bills of directions for Lee's Pills, might do much towards detecting those impostors, as they are assured that all my Directions for my genuine Pills I have had printed for several years past in the town of Windham, where I reside—and all such persons as apply elsewhere to have my Bills of Directions printed may be looked upon as suspicious persons. A large quantity of my genuine Patent Bileous Pills are constantly deposited in the Stores of HALL & WELD, and Dr. WILLIAM B. WHITE, of Boston, where dealers in Medicines and Country Merchants can always be supplied with those which are genuine, and on reasonable terms. The Printers of Newspapers in the States of Massachusetts, New-Hampshire and Vermont are requested to insert this advertisement in their papers four weeks, and to present their bills to me at Windham, or to Dr. ISAAC THOMPSON, at New-London, and they shall be duly paid. SAMUEL LEE, Patentee of the Winham Bileous Pills, By his Attorney, I. THOMPSON. October 27, 1809.
From the N. H. Patriot. TRUTH AND PATRIOTISM. We are proud that our paper should be chosen as the vehicle by which the voice of the Patriots of our Revolution should sound in the ears of republicans. For the following correspondence we are indebted to the same person who forwarded us a similar correspondence with the republicans of Bennington. Reiterations of applause are due the venerable STARK, from the friends of our Union, not only for his revolutionary services, but for his present timely admonitions and warnings. Salem, Washington County, N. Y. 17th September, 1809.
SIR, In behalf of the republican Citizens of the County of Washington convened on the 14 inst. for the purpose of taking into consideration the present critical situation of their country, and as foreman to their committee, I am instructed to transmit you their unfeigned gratitude for those military services which in a pre eminent manner freed this Country, it being adjacent to Bennington, from the hirelings of tyrants; and thereby in a manner restored tranquillity to its inhabitants. At the meeting a letter from you to the Bennington committee was read. Its genuine sentiments drew forth applause, and many Soldiers in the Revolution, and with you at Bennington, could not repress the tear of sensibility. At this crisis it kindled the fire of patriotism, and filled the bosoms of our young men with noble sentiments. Such ideas coming from a man who fought the battles of freedom, whose age and experience has enabled him to form correct opinions with respect to our governmental concerns are worth volumes of abstract and metaphysical reasoning to show that this or that form of government is best. That meeting instruct me to say, "that they sincerely love and venerate General STARK—that they thank the God of Battles for having prolonged his life to a good old age—that his sentiments, as expressed in his letter, are their sentiments, and they fervently pray his life may yet be spared—his mind unimpaired for years to come—and that he will not be wanting in warning his countrymen of dangers arising from that faction, in former times called "Tories," but now assuming the name of "federalists." Thank God, we are not under their influence; and in this part of the Union there is a manly display of true democratic, constitutional principles. May that being, in whose hands are all the issues of life—who gave a STARK in the hour of peril, and danger and who has been watchful for us hitherto, pour the balm of sweet repose into your declining bosom, and still preserve to our common country those blessings for which you fought and conquered. Accept from me and through me, the respect and esteem of the true Sons of Liberty in this county. JESSE L. BILLINGS, Foreman of the Committee. General JOHN STARK. ANSWER. My Quarters, Derrysfield, 10th October, 1809. SIR, I have lately received a letter from you, as chairman of a committee of the republican citizens of Washington county, convened on the 14th September last—in which you say much of my services in freeing your neighborhood of British hirelings. It is true, we all did what we could, and our doings were crowned with success. But there is much to be done. The most dangerous part of those hirelings are still in the country. We must know how to distinguish those Wolves from the Sheep of the flock, although they appear covered with wool. From their mouths we may know them. For the wolf cannot imitate the voice of the sheep; nor can the hireling think or express the thoughts of freemen. While one like the parrot is mimicking the high sounding words of his royal employers, and crying aloud that our only dependence is on commerce; the other, in republican simplicity, declares his own unborrowed sentiments, and says we can never be independent till we can supply all our necessary wants within ourselves. We must learn to distinguish the men who fought for the equal rights and liberties of the great whole, from those who fought only for the exclusive privileges of a federal aristocracy. These, like the others, cry for commerce, a great navy, great titles, great parade—in short, all the idle trappings & incumbrances of royalty. Merchants and lawyers are commonly of this description. The first merchants (or money changers) that I recollect hearing of, Christ found in the Temple, and called them a den of thieves, and overthrew their tables. And in the same Book it is said the lawyers were hypocrites and despoilers of widow's houses, and for a show made long prayers. It is however, a little remarkable that these two professions have preserved this character so long: it is now above 1800 years. I thank you, Mr. Billings and the republicans of Washington county for your prayers for the continuance of my life, because I consider them as the expression of your good will. But I have lived full long enough. Nevertheless, as long as the Lord sees cause to keep me here, I will employ the remnant of my faculties in exposing the enemies of the rights of man. And I exhort you all, that in your praying, to forget to watch too. I hope you will all enjoy the peace and liberty that belongs to freemen.—My strongest friendship for you, as long as you maintain the spirit I found among you in '77. JOHN STARK. JESSE L. BILLINGS, Foreman of the Committee of the Washington Republicans. On the authority of a letter from the Danish Consul at Philadelphia, we state, that not a single American vessel, whose papers have gone regularly through his hands has been condemned by the Dane.

FOREIGN. The following letter gives us a much clearer idea of the nature of Sir Arthur Wellesley's victory at Talavera de la Reyna, than any of the official dispatches. From these letters it will be seen that the loss of the combined English and Spaniards must have been infinite. The English, who were the assailants, and who retired at pleasure, much to the joy of the English. "Talavera July 29. "My Dear Sir,—Instead of receiving a letter dated Madrid, you find one dated fame as last, and now hope Sir Arthur will be content with dating his from the Plains of Talavera, become famous for the actions of the 27th and 28th inst at least for some time. "My last was dated and I believe forwarded, the 25th, at which time it was every one's opinion, that the enemy retreated; however it appears our advanced guard kept pace with them till they received reinforcements of several thousands. Sir Arthur in the morning of the 27th, put himself at the head of our advance (General Mackenzie's brigade) and as it is said induced them to turn about and attack him. "The brunt of this business was sustained by the Spaniards and this brigade consisting of about 6,000 men, till about one o'clock P. M. when the Spaniards, by a concerted plan, began to give way, which they did in excellent order, and concealed the greater part of their force behind the town. But by the time the enemy came up they had taken a position in a wood, with their right, to the Tagus, two miles advanced from Talavera opposite the enemy's left, while our whole force turned out of a wood they were halted in, and occupied a most excellent position, with our left on a steep hill, but easy of access, extending to the Spanish lines, covering a part of the enemy from their right to their centre. The enemy, from the rapidity of their movements, got hold of some commanding hills opposite our left. With a mountain on their right, and the Tagus on their left the occupation of this hill, where our left was posted, seemed to be the great object of the enemy during the whole business. The action commenced about half past 6 o'clock, P. M. by a vigorous attack of the enemy on this post, which was defended by General Hill's division.—They continued their exertions to get possession of this hill till 11 at night, when, after being repulsed and drove down every time they attempted to ascend, they withdrew for the night.—I could not see their attack of our right, but was happy to find they did not succeed better in that point, and could not boast of having gained an inch of ground either on us or the Spaniards. We lay on our arms the whole night, and was in hopes they had retired; however, at day-light we were much disappointed at finding them within half-gun shot of us, determined to gain the hill, the attack on which commenced at 5 o'clock, A. M. with the most dreadful cannonade of round grape and shells from a numerous artillery. This destructive fire was so well directed, that notwithstanding every means we could think of to conceal ourselves on the side of the hill, and lying down on our arms, the ranks were thinned very much, without a shot in return, except from three or four pieces of ill directed Spanish artillery. They now renewed their attempt to take it by storm; their infantry advanced up the hill for this purpose, and met with no opposition, except from our field pieces, till they arrived near the top, when they were charged by the 29th 2d, 48th, and I believe 66th regiments, who drove them much quicker down then they came up. This division now retired to the foot of the mountain and dispatched a column of about 2,000, to take possession of a tower on the top, which I thought ought to be occupied by us before, as by means of the easy descent on the other side we could with ease be cut off, in case of a reverse of fortune, from the road leading from Orepesa to Talavera, which was the same we came to the latter by. The 23d Lt. Drag. and Dragoon Guards now came round the hill, in a valley between the hill and mountain, which kept this French division from attempting any thing further, till reinforced by two other

strong columns—they now advanced, and commenced forming a line of one of those, while the other remained in column ready to receive our cavalry. The 23d were then ordered to advance and did so very regularly, though under a very heavy fire of musketry. On commencing the charge, the column which had displayed, succeeded by double quick time in getting into column, before the dragoons came up. The 23d notwithstanding, came up to the point of the bayonet, in hopes the enemy would show some symptoms of breaking; but quite the contrary—they remained as steady as a wall, though I saw several shells fall in centre of them—and kept up such a brisk fire that they soon compelled the 32d to retire in disorder. The Guards now came up but very prudently declined charging. The loss of the 23d must have been very great. I went over the field this morning, and saw more than I could imagine; horses and men completely burned & mangled!
"This certainly was one of those views in action which seldom occur, and indeed one of the finest I ever saw, or that could be imagined; 23d advancing, under repeated shouts and huzzas from the troops on the hill—the enemy's line running to get into column, as a place of security—the steadiness of those columns, which looked more like buildings than men—and the preserving bravery of the 23d, in charging and actually going round one of the columns. I do not think any painter or pen capable of picturing it in half its beauties."
"Before the charge, 4 or 5000 of the Spaniards got up the mountain, in rear of our cavalry, and in a short time commenced a very spirited attack on the French, who had the top for near a mile completely lined with infantry. They kept up so quick a fire, and seemed so determined to carry their point, that in about two hours the enemy began to give way in that quarter; but continued disputing it for several hours after—when near sun set they left it in quiet possession of this column of Spaniards, who certainly behaved nobly."
"About 3 o'clock. I was glad to find that the enemy had gained no ground on the right of the centre, though I could not, for the forest of trees distinguish how matters went on in that quarter. About 4 o'clock, our battalion was called from its lurking place on top of the hill—when we were exposed to a heavy fire of shells, by which we lost at least 100 men, without a shot in return; and were ordered to proceed singly down the hill, to check a column that was again advancing to form the other side (towards the right and centre) of the hill. After forming line, our Commanding Officer wounded, and standing the fire of this column, supported by a heavy discharge of artillery, for about five minutes we fired a volley, and instantly came to the charge—halted, fired once more, advanced and charged a second time; when the enemy went to the right about and retired. Although they did not wait the point of our bayonets, we succeeded in the grand object of making them retire. On returning we received the thanks of Sir Arthur on the spot, and understand we had the same repeated to us in this day's Public Orders. In fact nothing could be steadier or more determined than our conduct—After this they retired to some distance, and again commenced with their shells, which they continued till 7 in the evening—when they began to form their columns of infantry and cavalry, as if intending to keep it up during the night. However, after remaining under arms the whole night, expecting if possible a more dreadful havoc this day, to our great joy and satisfaction we found they had retired—not a man was to be seen."
Our Light Infantry Brigade, with some guns, arrived this morning and have pursued in order to keep them in view—Their numbers could not be less than 50,000 men, having been joined by Joseph and the army from Toledo. Joseph was present, it is said during the whole time—Their loss is very great—but I am afraid not in proportion to ours which cannot be less in killed and wounded than 5,000 men, out of not more than 22,000. We lost about 180 privates and 6 officers—for which we had no more satisfaction than six rounds per man; the officers' wounds, I believe are not dangerous."
"The town and field of battle, at this moment, present the most dreadful scene you can imagine: some of the wounded have remained two days undressed, for want of medical assistance, and numbers who could not be carried off in time, have been burnt: this was occasioned by the enemy's shells, which set fire to every field that had the least herbage; what verdure does appear is at this time of the year quite parched, and consequently setting fire to their pouches and blowing them up. This at the moment could not be helped; sometimes whole fields were on fire at once, which often covered their advance."
Want of time and fatigue prevents me from continuing a detail which any moderate man might fill pages on; however, one thing we were much deceived in the enemy's number; really it was doubtful at a late hour yesterday, what would be the result—All we can boast of after 17 or 18 hours hard fighting, is possession of the field of battle, and I believe, 19 pieces of artillery. I have often heard of the great superiority of the management of their great guns, which I must say was far short of what it really is. Provisions are still very scarce. The army lost a number of men by mistakes occasioned by the darkness of the night of the 27th—several times one line has been found firing on another. The regiment Henry Shepard is attached to 82d, suffered very much; however he has escaped, but rather sick, fighting so long at a time, as well as others.
"I remain, &c. " T. C."  Official Letters from Spain.
Received at Providence from Liverpool. FROM THE LONDON GAZETTE, OF SEPT. 9. Downing-street, Sept. 7. Despatches, of which the following are copies and extracts, were this day received at the office of Viscount Castlereagh, one of his Majesty's Principal Secretaries of State, from Lieut. Gen. Viscount Wellington, K. B.
Truxillo, Aug. 21. MY LORD.—When I marched from Talavera on the 3d instant, with a view to oppose the French corps which we had heard had passed through the Puerto de Banos, and had arrived at Plasencia, Sir R. Wilson was detached upon the left of the army, towards Escalona; and before I marched on that morning, I put him in communication with the Spanish General Cuesta, who it had been settled was to remain at Talavera. I understood that Gen. Cuesta put Sir Robert in communication with his advanced Guard, which retired from Talavera on the night of the 4th.
Sir R. Wilson, however did not arrive at Valada till the night of the 4th, having made a long march through the mountains; and as he was then six leagues from the bridge of Arzo Bispo, and had to cross the high road from Oropesa to Talavera, of which the enemy was in possession, he conceived that he was too late to retire to Arzo Bispo, and he determined to move by Vedia St. Julien and Centinello towards the Tietar, and across that river towards the mountains which separate Castile from Estremadura.
Some of Sir R. Wilson's despatches having missed me, I am not aware by which of the passes he went through the mountains, but I believe by Tornavacas. He arrived, however at Banos on the 11th, and on the 12th was attacked and defeated by the French corps of Marshal Ney, which, with that of Soult, returned to Plasencia on the 9th, 10th and 11th, that of Ney having since gone on towards Salamanca.
I inclose Sir R. Wilson's account of the action. He has been very active, intelligent, and useful, in the command of the Portuguese and Spanish corps with which he was detached from this army. Before the battle of the 28th of July he had pushed his parties almost to the gates of Madrid, with which city he was in communication; and he would have been in Madrid if I had not thought it proper to call him in, in expectation of that general action which took place on the 28th of July. He afterwards alarmed the enemy on the right of his army; and throughout the service, showed himself to be an active and intelligent partizan, well acquainted with the country in which he was acting, and possessing the confidence of the troops which he commanded.
Being persuaded that his retreat was not open by Arzo Bispo, he acted right in taking the road he did, with which he was well acquainted; and although unsuccessful in the action which he fought (which may be well accounted for, by the superior numbers and description of the enemy's troops,) the action, in my opinion does him great credit. I have the honor to be, &c. (Signed) ARTHUR WELLESLEY.
Sir R. Wilson's Letter. Miranda de Ebro, Aug. 13, 1809. SIR,—I have the honor to acquaint you, that I was on march yesterday morning on the road of Grendelia from Aldea Neuva, to restore my communication with the allied army, when a peasant assured us, that a considerable quantity of dust which we perceived in the road of Plasencia, proceeded from the march of a body of the enemy. I immediately returned and took post in front of Banos, with my pickets in advance of Aldea Neuva, selecting such points for defence as the exigency of the time permitted.
The enemy's cavalry advanced on the high road, and drove back my small cavalry posts; but a picket of Spanish infantry, which I had concealed, poured in on the cavalry a steady and well directed fire, that killed and wounded many of them. The 200 Spanish infantry in advance of Aldea Neuva continued, under the direction of Col. Grant and their officers, to maintain their ground most gallantly, until the enemy's cavalry and chasseurs a cheval, in considerable bodies, appeared on both flanks, when they were obliged to retreat.
The enemy's chasseurs a cheval and cavalry advanced in great numbers in every direction, and pushed to cut off the legion posted between Aldea Neuva and Banos; but, by the steady conduct of officers and men, the enemy could only advance gradually, and with a very severe loss from the commanding fire thrown on them. The Merida battalion, however, having given way on the right, a road was laid open, which cut behind our position, and I was obliged to order a retreat on the heights above Banos, when I was again necessitated to detach a corps, in order to scour the road of Monte Major, by which I saw the enemy directing a column, and which road turned altogether the Puerto de Banos, a league in our rear.
At this time, Don Carlos Marquis de Estrague came up with his battalion of light infantry, and in the most gallant manner, took post along the heights
commanding the road of Banos, which enabled me to fend some of the Merida battalion on the mountains on our left, commanding the main road, and which the enemy had tried to ascend.
The battalion of light infantry, the detachment of the legion on his right, continued notwithstanding the enemy's fire of artillery and musketry, to maintain their ground; but at six o'clock in the evening, three columns of the enemy mounted the height on our left, gained it, and poured such a fire on the troops below that longer defence was impracticable, and the whole was obliged to retire on the mountain on our left, leaving open the main road, along which a considerable column of cavalry immediately poured.
The battalion of Seville had been left at Berjar with orders to follow me next day, but when I was obliged to return and the action commenced, I ordered it to Puerto Banos, to watch the Monte Major Road and the heights in the rear of our left.
When the enemy's cavalry came near, an officer and some dragoons called out to the Commanding Officer to surrender, but a volley killed him and his party, and then the battalion proceeded to mount the heights, in which movement it was attacked and surrounded by a column of cavalry and a column of infantry, but cut its way and cleared itself, killing a great many of the enemy, especially of his cavalry.
The enemy is now passing to Salamanca with great expedition; I lament that I could no longer arrest his progress, but when the enormous superiority of the enemy's force is considered, and that we had no artillery, and that the Puerto de Banos on the Estremaduran side is not a pass of such strength as the side of Castile, especially without guns, I hope that a resistance for nine hours, which must have cost the enemy a great many men, will not be deemed inadequate to our means.
I have to acknowledge the services rendered me on the occasion by Col. Grant, Major Reiman, Don Fermon Marques, Adj. Major of the dragoons of Pavia, Capt. Charles and Mr. Bolman; and to express the greatest approbation of two companies of the Merida Battalions advanced in front, and of the Commanding Officer and Soldiers of the Battalions of Seville, and the Portuguese Brigade. I have already noticed the distinguished conduct of Don Carlos, and his Battalion merits the highest encomiums.
I have not yet been able to collect the returns of our loss. From the nature of mountain warfare many men are missing who cannot join for a day or two, but I believe the enemy will only have to boast that he has achieved his passage, and his killed and wounded will be a great diminution of his victory. I have the honor to be &c. ROBERT WILSON. Sir A. Wellesley, &c. &c. &c.
GERMANY. VIENNA, AUG. 12. Instead of Count Stadion, Count Metternich has taken upon himself the department of Foreign Affairs, ad interim , and is to hold a conference with Count Champagny, in the castle of Alkenburg.
INNSPRUCK, AUG. 15. Along the whole neighbouring frontiers of the Tyrol, general insurrection unhappily prevails. Wounded men have been brought in here from the environs of Hindelang, 5 leagues south from Kempten. The notorious Chief, Hoffer, of Palfay, had the audacity to reply to the order to appear in Innsbruck by the 10th of August—That he would come, but accompanied by 10,000 sharpshooters. It is he who occupied the Brenner, with a large force of peasants. The attempt to dislodge them from the pass of Burgh, not far from Sternach, has not succeeded. They defend themselves not so much with arms as pieces of rocks and beams of timber, which they hurl from the high mountains on both sides into the narrow valley.

G. BRITAIN. LONDON GAZETTE, SEPT. 6, 1809. Lord Castlereagh has received despatches from Gen. Stuart, dated at Ithaca, (in Naples's bay) the 5th and 9th July.—They give the details of the expedition from Milazzo, (Sicily) which sailed from thence the 11th June; the object of which was to menace the Kingdom of Naples, and make a diversion in favor of Austria. A division of Sicilian troops from Palermo cooperated; having with them the Sicilian prince Leopold. On the appearance of the expedition off Calabria, the coast was evacuated, and some of the posts opposite Messina taken possession of. On the 25th, the British part of the expedition took the island of Ithaca, after some opposition; the castle surrendering by capitulation on the 30th. The island of Procida was summoned, and surrendered; in consequence of which, a large flotilla of about 20 heavy gun-boats going from Gueta to Naples, were captured or destroyed. 1500 prisoners were taken; among them one General, two Colonels and 70 other officers. 100 pieces of ordnance, with corresponding stores were also taken. The division which took Ithaca was 2380 strong; with four 6 pounders, and two howitzers. Our loss is very inconsiderable. The letter of the 9th mentions an unsuccessful attack made on the castle of Scylla, in Calabria, with the loss of the besieging train, and of the abandonment of it soon after; when the train was recovered, with the addition of great quantity of stores. A detachment of the British 21st regt. was taken at Palma. The consequence of this movement was that a considerable body of troops which had been recently detached from Naples as a reinforcement, to the army in Upper Italy, as well as almost the whole of the troops which had been sent into the Roman states to aid the late usurpation of the papal dominions, were precipitately recalled on our first appearance on the coast.
Sir John Stuart's despatches do not evince any intention of abandoning either Ithaca or Procida, which the last French papers asserted we had evacuated. [Later accounts state, that Ithaca was evacuated by the British, the 27th July—Cent.]
LETTERS from off Toulon have been received, dated the 2d August.—They state, the French to have there 13 sail of the line and 8 frigates, ready for sea.—That 4800 seamen, lately belonging to the ships destroyed in Basque Roads, were on their march from Rochefort to Toulon; and that it was expected the Toulon squadron would make a push to sea. We have 13 sail of the line on the station off Toulon. Commodore Harwood, with 3 sail of the line, & c. is off Trieste.
LONDON, SEPT. 13, 1809. The Courier, which is in the secrets of the Cabinet in a certain degree, says "It is probable some changes in the Cabinet Ministers will take place—two or three Members will retire." These are conjectured to be the Duke of Portland, First Lord of the Treasury; Lord Castlereagh, Secretary of the War department; and Lord Chatham, Master General of the Ordnance.
Government has received information that neutral vessels sail from France with forged licences, under all colours, excepting French and Dutch. They bring nothing but French brandies &c. and the licences are not easily distinguished from those which are genuine. The Americans are making great voyages by this fraud.

TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 7, 1809.
LATEST FROM EUROPE.
Last evening's mail furnished us with news of considerable importance, received by the Wasp, 23 days from L'Orient, France...
No news of peace between Austria and France had been received, when the Wasp sailed: it was indeed rumored that hostilities had actually recommenced.
It is not known what is the purport of the dispatches brought by the Wasp from our government. It appears that those sent out by her, had not, as late as the 20th Sept. been sent to Bonaparte, at Vienna.
Gen. Armstrong told one of the passengers in the Wasp, on the 24th Sept. that he had at last procured the release of the American seamen imprisoned at Arras...
Bonaparte was said to be seriously indisposed, at Vienna, 26th Sept. being attacked with a violent inflammation of the brain, which had produced delirium.
The Wasp had but 19 days passage out and 32 home, having performed her voyage in about 73 days.
Much discontent prevails in England arising from the disastrous result of the measures of the ministry. On the 21st Sept. a duel was fought between Lord Castlereagh and Mr. Canning...
By virtue of the new arrangement, Lord Wellesley is to be the new Secretary of War; the Earl of Harrowby takes the foreign department; Mr. Percival is to be first Lord of the Treasury and Chancellor of the Exchequer.
A letter from Liverpool, of 6th Oct says, "our ministerial arrangements appear nearly settled for the present, tho' apparently less favorable to a settlement of the differences between your government and ours than if the change had been complete."
A very mortal sickness prevails among the English troops in the Peninsula. An article from Flushing, of Sept. 14, says, "The sickness of the troops continues to increase. The return of sick for one regiment alone (the 38th) was this day 459 men and 10 officers."
All the islands of Zealand, with the exception of Walcheren, are occupied by the troops of the King of Holland.
An officer of the general staff of the British army in Spain writes from Truxillo, August 22d—"The war in Spain is nearly at an end. The Spaniards are the complete savages of superstition and fanaticism."
Lord Wellington with the remains of his army, worn down with fatigue, and reduced to one fourth its original numbers, have arrived at Badajoz.
All the U.S. vessels of war, the Wasp and Enterprise excepted, are under sailing orders to stretch along our coast, and examine its various ports and harbors.
Extract of a letter from Liverpool, dated September 12th.
"Yesterday intelligence was received here that the differences betwixt America and France have been adjusted and that the Wasp sloop of war was on the point of leaving France for America, with the ratification of a treaty between the two countries."
From the N.Y. Public Advertiser of October 31st. The ship Susan, capt. Delano, arrived on Saturday last, in 42 days from Amsterdam, bringing Paris accounts to Sept. 6, and Amsterdam, of the 11th September.
The Embargo that was laid on all vessels in the ports of Holland on the 31st of July last, was raised prior to the sailing of the Susan.
Gen. Armstrong has effected such an arrangement with the French government, so salutary and desirable by both nations, that he was confident it would meet the approbation of the Executive of the United States, and that he had obtained permission from the King of Holland to let a vessel sail, during the existence of the Embargo, to carry his dispatches home.
The General left Amsterdam on his return to Paris on the 4th of September, the day after the Monticello sailed.
The Emperor of France had given directions to the judges of his prize courts to suspend all discussion in the case of American vessels.
Capt. Delano is the bearer of dispatches from our Ambassador at Paris to this government.
The prospect of an adjustment of our differences with France, on honorable terms, is, or ought to be the sincere wish of every American not blinded to the true interests of his country, or devoted to the views of the enemy of neutrals.
By the arrival of the Montequieu Capt. Wilson, from Tonningen, our commercial affairs assume a more cheering aspect than they were at the latest accounts—most of our vessels had safely reached their ports of destination, were they met with little or no difficulty in the disposal of their cargoes.
Several vessels which had been under seizure had been liberated by the Danish government, and permitted to proceed. (Phil. Gaz.)
Earl Chatham, the hero of the Sable, it is supposed will be tried by the board of admiralty, and probably disgraced, for his false modesty in not claiming and announcing a victory, in the true English style, after the manner of General Hope, in his flight from Corrunna—of General Despair now Lord Wellington at his bold stand Talavera.
Late accounts from the W. I. state, that a pirate by the name of Priam Pease, a native of Marituba Vineyard, was cruising off St. Martins in an open boat of about 3 tons, capturing every vessel he fell in with—An American Ship and Schooner, were lately taken by him, sent into St. Martins, plundered and condemned, and their cargoes sold.
The ship Goshypium, Shaw, arrived at Savannah the 12th ult. from Liverpool. A few days previous, to the northward of Bermuda, was boarded by the Halifax British sloop of war, and had Charles Simmons a young man who had served an apprenticeship of 7 years with capt. S. impressed, and carried off in the Halifax.
On the 20th ult. Mr. Jefferson made a visit to Richmond, on some private business. A meeting of the citizens was immediately held a committee appointed, and a suitable Address presented by the Chairman of the committee in the name of the citizens—On the 21st a public dinner was given in honor of their illustrious visitor, which was attended by a large and brilliant company.
BE NOT DECEIVED.
The republicans, particularly in this part of the union, appear reposing in the greatest security, from a mistaken idea, that because the federalists affect to approve certain acts of Mr. Madison's administration, and have abated somewhat of the outrageous clamor of former times, they have changed their designs, and relinquished their endeavors to maintain their party in opposition to the republicans. Nothing can be more fallacious than such a supposition—nothing more dangerous to the republican interest.
LOOK BACK A LITTLE
Federal Definition of JACOBINISM. The small fry of federal scribblers, who from a conscious deficiency of solid talents, resort to the idle repetition of cant phrases to acquire fame or victuals, are referred for information to a definition of Jacobinism, which may be found in their own writings.
In the year '98, or '99, when attachment to the government was no crime, and the most moderate opposition to it was foul treason a federal member of Congress, in one of his speeches on the floor of that house, mentioned the word Jacobinism, and immediately explained "By Jacobinism" said he, "I mean a spirit of opposition which knows not to yield; which assaults with UNCEASING CLAMOUR THE MEASURES of the government, though known by all to be necessary; and though those measures are SANCTIONED BY A GREAT MAJORITY OF THE COUNTRY."
Now, if it should be asked who, according to federal definition, are the real JACOBINS of the present day, the answer would not be difficult. It requires as much stupidity as malice, under such circumstances, to call the ascendant democratic party Jacobins! Old. Col. Gaz.
Installation.
Tomorrow the Rev. HORSA BALLOU is to be installed to the pastoral charge of the Universalist Church & Society in this town. The Rev. Mr. Jones of Gloucester, and the Rev. Mr. Turner of Salem, are to officiate on the occasion—Sermon by the Rev. Mr. Turner—Service to begin at 11 o'clock.
