The proprietors of the old six per cent. and deferred stock, who may subscribe, will receive in lieu thereof a new six per cent. stock, equal to the unredeemed amount of the stock surrendered, redeemable at the pleasure of the United States, under a proviso however, that no reimbursement shall be made except for the whole amount of any such new certificate of stock, nor till after six months previous notice; and the proprietors of the three per cent. stock who may subscribe, will receive in lieu thereof, a six per cent. stock, equal to sixty-five per cent. of the amount of three per cent. surrendered, redeemable in the same manner as the new six per cent. abovementioned, but not reimbursable however, without the assent of the holders, until after the whole of the new six per cent. (given in exchange for old six or deferred as abovementioned,) as well as the whole of the eight per cent. stock of the United States, shall have been reimbursed. It is also provided that in every reimbursement which may take place, a preference will be given to those creditors who may notify their wish to be reimbursed; and that if the applications to that effect shall at any time either exceed or fall short of the sum then applicable to that purpose, the priority of payment shall, so far as may be necessary, be determined by lot.
The present stock-holders who reside in any part of Europe, and may assent to that modification, may, at their option, receive the interest accruing on the new stock, either in the United States as heretofore, or in London, or Amsterdam at par: in which last case, the interest will be paid there by the bankers of the United States, six months subsequent to the day on which the same would be payable in the United States, and subject to no variation: nor to any other deduction than a commission to the bankers, of one half per cent. on the interest thus paid.

By THOMAS JEFFERSON, President of the United States of America.
A PROCLAMATION.
IN the catalogue of crimes laid to the charge of the British king, in that memorable instrument, The Declaration of Independence , are found the following—
"He has affected to render the military independent of, and superior to the civil power." [This charge still holds good. The civil authorities of America and Britain investigated the right of the latter to the three seamen which have been made the ostensible cause of the flagrant and unpardonable attack upon the Cheapeake by the Leopard , and it evidently appeared, that according to civil law , to the immutable principles of justice, and the dictates of humanity, that these men being native born Americans, had a right to go whithersoever they pleased, and that Britain had no other claim to their services, at any time, than the law of force . To which that country has feloniously appealed .]
"For protecting them, by a mock trial, from punishment for any murders which they should commit on the inhabitants of these States."
[The late acquittal of Whitby , of infamous recollection, is a case exactly in point. The trial was, in every respect, a mockery, and a predetermination was undoubtedly had to promote this fellow, in order that he might have an opportunity "to kill another John Pierce!" Courts of Justice are commonly held open, and access denied to no person who may choose to hear the causes tried before them—but there was a secret tribunal , with judges and jury composed of fellow murderers, and the proceedings on this case have never been laid before the public, further than the result "that Whitby was honorable ly acquitted!"]
"For cutting off our trade with all parts of the world." [Let the merchant and sea-faring men declare whether this applies to the present state of things. Our ports have been and now are, blocked by a "friendly" power!]
"He has constrained our fellow citizens [impressment] on the high seas to bear arms against their country, to become the executioners of their friends and brethren, or to fall themselves by their hands."
[Three or four thousand American seamen, held in involuntary bondage on board the British ships of war, will testify to the application of this charge—These unfortunate men, in case of an open rupture between the two nations, will be compelled to murder their nearest friends and countrymen, or suffer death for mutiny! Several of them were doubtless employed in the late massacre off the Capes of Virginia.]
"He has excited domestic insurrections amongst us."
[See the affair of Burr —but as the case is before the proper authority, and the principal, if guilty, will suffer the punishment for his crimes, we deem it unfit to enlarge on the subject. But we are well assured that if Burr did intend to play the traitor, that the British are in the secret, did countenance and would have given him efficient support. In the affair of that adventurer Miranda (by whose voluntary schemes many of our brethren now lie in chains) it is ascertained, from the investigation of the case of Sir Home Popham , that they were embarked. If Burr's business was a chain of that connection, can any doubt exist upon the mind but that they had determined to give him support in any measures which might tend to destroy the happiness or check the prosperity of our country? Time will unfold the business.]
There are many paragraphs in this memorable instrument extremely applicable to the present state of things—the foregoing may be sufficient to show that "as it was in the beginning so it is now," and that tyrants in '76, the British have made no alteration of conduct in 1807; but that the same energies which compelled them to respect the rights of humanity, must now be exerted to preserve them.
As it was expected, persons are found ready to excise the British conduct, and if this cannot be done by open insults to the American nation, the public mind is disturbed by some fears, which are raised for the moment, till opportunity can be found from some circumstances to ridicule the most sacred interests of the country. The same men that have insulted our President and our Governor, may be expected soon to engage in this shameful business. But happily for our country, the national resentment is already roused! We knew of the murder at New-York , but we were willing to wait for an explanation, and we have received it. We saw a pitiful officer in the British Navy insulting our Government at Charleston —we condemned & despised him. What are the Americans made off, say the British minions. Will not murder route them?—Will they see their government insulted by the commander of the meanest ship in the British navy, and be at peace? Then we will speak plainer to them. We will pour our British thunder into their ships of war, and with blood and carnage tell them we defy them to contend with the bullies of the ocean.
Never have the Americans discovered a wish for war. May they never discover such a disposition. They have courage, and they have proved it. But the late measures of Norfolk deserve the highest praise. They are the language of all true Americans. It will be expressed through the Union. It is no distrust of government; it is no invasion of the Laws. It is the just expression of national indignation, which explains the spirit of the people to the government of the nation. With transport we hear the cry for Justice—and while submission to the Government will be absolute, it is the glory of an American to wait, in arms, the command to avenge his country. [ Salem Reg. ]
DURING the wars which for some time, have unhappily prevailed among the powers of Europe, the United States of America, firm in their principles of peace, have endeavored by justice, by a regular discharge of all their national and social duties, and by every friendly office their situation has admitted, to maintain, with all the belligerents, their accustomed relations of friendship, hospitality, and commercial intercourse. Taking no part in the questions which animate these powers against each other, nor permitting themselves to entertain a wish but for the restoration of general peace, they have observed with good faith the neutrality they assumed, and they believe that no instance of a departure from its duties can be justly imputed to them by any nation. A free use of their harbours and waters, the means of resitting, and of refreshment, of succour to their sick and suffering, have at all times, and on equal principles, been extended to all, and this too amidst a constant recurrence of acts of insubordination to the laws of violence, to the persons, and of trespasses on the property of our citizens, committed by officers of one of the belligerent parties received among us. In truth these abuses of the laws of hospitality have, with few exceptions, become habitual to the commanders of the British armed vessels hovering on our coasts, and frequenting our harbours. They have been the subject of repeated representations to their government.—Assurances have been given that proper orders should restrain them within the limit of the rights and of the respect due to a friendly nation: but those orders and assurances have been without effect; no instance of punishment for past wrongs has taken place. At length, a deed, transcending all we have hitherto seen or suffered, brings the public sensibility to a serious crisis, and our forbearance to a necessary pause. A frigate of the United States trusting to a state of peace, and leaving her harbor on a distant service, has been surprised and attacked by a British vessel, of superior force, one of a squadron then lying in our waters and covering the transaction, and has been disabled from service, with the loss of a number of men killed and wounded. This enormity was not only without provocation or justifiable cause, but was committed with the avowed purpose of taking by force, from a ship of war of the United States, a part of her crew, and that no circumstance might be wanting to mark its character, it had been previously ascertained that the seamen demanded were native citizens of the United States. Having effected his purpose, he returned to anchor with his squadron within our jurisdiction. Hospitality, under such circumstances ceases to be a duty; and a continuance of it, with such uncontrolled abuses, would tend only by multiplying injuries and irritations, to bring on a rupture between the two nations. This extreme resort is equally opposed to the interests of both, as it is to assurances of the most friendly dispositions on the part of the British government, in the midst of which this outrage has been committed. In this light the subject cannot but present itself to that government, and strengthen the motives to an honorable reparation of the wrong which has been done, and to that effectual control of its naval commanders, which alone can justify the government of the United States in the exercise of those hospitalities it is now constrained to discontinue.
In consideration of these circumstances and of the right of every nation to regulate its own police, to provide for its peace and for the safety of its citizens, and consequently to refuse the admission of armed vessels into its harbors or waters, either in such numbers or of such descriptions, as are inconsistent with these, or with the maintenance of the authority of the laws, I have thought proper in pursuance of the authorities specially given by law to issue this my PROCLAMATION, hereby requiring all armed vessels bearing commissions under the government of Great Britain, now within the harbors or waters of the United States, immediately and without any delay to depart from the same and interdicting the entrance of all the said harbors and waters to the said armed vessels, and to all others bearing commissions under the authority of the British government.
And if the said vessels, or any of them, shall fail to depart as aforesaid, or if they or any others, so interdicted, shall hereafter enter the said harbors or waters, it is hereby declared that all such vessels, with their officers or crews, and all their supplies, and aid and comfort furnished to them or any of them, and I do hereby make known, that if any person from or within the jurisdiction of the United
States shall afford any aid to any such vessel, contrary to the prohibition contained in this Proclamation, either in repairing any such vessel, or in furnishing her, her officers or crew, with supplies of any kind, or in any manner whatsoever, or if any pilot shall assist in navigating any of the said armed vessels, unless it be for the purpose of carrying them in the first instance, beyond the limits and jurisdiction of the United States, or unless it be in the case of a vessel forced by distress, or charged with public dispatches as hereinafter provided for, such person or persons shall, on conviction, suffer all the pains and penalties by the laws provided for such offences.
And I do hereby enjoin and require all persons bearing office civil or military within or under the authority of the United States, and all others, citizens or inhabitants thereof, or being within the same, with vigilance and promptitude to exert their respective authorities, and to be aiding and assisting to the carrying this Proclamation and every part thereof, into full effect.
Provided nevertheless, that if any such vessel shall be forced into the harbors or waters of the United States by distress, by the dangers of the sea, or by the pursuit of an enemy, or shall enter them charged with dispatches or business from their government, or shall be a public packet for the conveyance of letters and dispatches, the commanding officer immediately reporting his vessel to the collector of the district, stating the object or causes of entering the said harbors or waters, and conforming himself to the regulations in that case prescribed under the authority of the laws, shall be allowed the benefit of such regulations respecting repairs, supplies, stay, intercourse and departure as shall be permitted under the same authority.
In testimony whereof, I have caused the seal of the United States to be affixed to these presents and signed the time.
Given at the city of Washington, the second day of July, in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and seven, and of the sovereignty and independence of the United States the thirty-first.

BY THE MAILS.
WASHINGTON CITY, JULY 1. We understand that immediately on receiving information of the issue of the outrage offered to the Chesapeake , the Secretary of the Navy ordered Captain Decatur to take command of her and prepare her for service without delay; and likewise ordered an enquiry to be instituted into the conduct of Commodore James Barron, on the occasion. The court of enquiry is composed of Commodore Preble, and Captains Hull and Chauncy, and is to convene on board the Chesapeake .
The following is a copy of the letter addressed by the officers of the wardroom of the Chesapeake , to the Secretary of the Navy.
Late U. S. Ship Chesapeake , Hampton Roads, June 23, 1807.
Sir, The undersigned officers of the late U. S. Ship Chesapeake , feeling deeply sensible of the disgrace which must be attached to the late (in their opinion) premature surrender of the U. S. Ship Chesapeake of 40 guns, to the English ship of war Leopard of 50 guns, without their previous knowledge, or consent, and desirous of proving to their country and the world, that it was the will of all the undersigned, to have rendered themselves worthy of the flag under which they had the honor to serve, by a determined resistance, to an unjust demand, do request the Hon. the Secretary of the Navy to order a court of enquiry into their conduct. At the same time they are compelled by imperative duty, by the honor of their flag, by the honor of their countrymen and by all that is dear to themselves, to request that an order may be issued for the arrest of Commodore James Barron on the charges herewith exhibited, which the undersigned pledge themselves to prove true, viz:
1st. On the probability of an engagement, for neglecting to clear his ship for action. 2d. For not doing his utmost to take or destroy a vessel which he conceives it his duty to have done.
With the highest respect, We subscribe ourselves, Your most obedient servants. (Signed) Ben. Smith, 1st Lt. Wm. Crane, 2d Lt. W. H. Allen, 3d Lt. S. Orde Creighton, 4th Lt. Sidney Smith, 5th Lt. Sam. Brooks, S. M. The Hon. Robt. Smith, Secretary of the Navy, Washington.
NORFOLK, JUNE 29. Yesterday evening the Committee received information from Hampton , that an attempt to land at that place would be made from the British ships below. Nearly 300 citizens immediately volunteered their services to man the Gun Boats, and proceeded instantly to Hampton , and they will go off this afternoon, four in number. No place can be better defended by gun boats than Hampton , on account of the bar, which prevents the access of large vessels. There may be no real foundation to this belief, but the unprepared state in which the Chesapeake was attacked inspires an uncommon vigilance and suspicion.
NORFOLK, JUNE 29. DIED—On Saturday last, the Marine Hospital, ROBERT MACDONALD, one of the seamen wounded on board the Chesapeake frigate. Yesterday his funeral was attended by nearly four thousand citizens—the body was brought over from the Hospital Point, attended by a procession of boats, to the market wharf. Minute guns from the artillery, firing during the time, all the American shipping with colors half mast. Arrived at County wharf, a procession was formed, which marched up Market square, through Catherine street to Freemason street, and from thence to Christ Church, where an appropriate, impressive and patriotic discourse was delivered to a most numerous congregation, by the Rev. Mr. Davis.
The following was the order of procession: Detachment of the Junior Volunteers. Minstrel. Chairman of the Committee. Committee, in two lines. Surgeons of the Hospital. THE CORPSE.
Yesterday afternoon we were gratified with the sight of the four gun-boats equipped and under way for the defence of the Narrows, in case any attempt should be made to enter this harbor by the British . Too much praise cannot be given to the spirit and patriotism of the Capt. and seamen of the port on this occasion. On Sunday evening only, a deputation from the committee waited on Capt. Decatur with a request that the gun boats might be prepared for action. At this time no rigging was over head, nor sails bent, arms or ammunition on board, but such was the persevering labor of, and ardent exertion of our seamen, that at four o'clock they failed, ready, victualled, manned, and in every respect prepared for action, and under a commander who will never be taken all aback or shut his eyes at the signal. [ Herald .]
JULY 1.—This day Commodore Stephen Decatur, jun. hoisted his Broad Pendant on board the United States' frigate Chesapeake , in the place of Commodore James Barron. Captain Gordon, continues in command of the ship.
A committee has been raised to request the owners of powder to hold the same for the public service; and the city committee have declared that those who enhance the price of that article will defer the censure and contempt of the nation. The thanks of the Committee have been given to Capt. Decatur, &c. for their alacrity in manning the Gun Boats.
PHILADELPHIA, JULY 3. Gen. Eaton yesterday passed thro' this city, on his return to the northward from Richmond . A gentleman, who was in his company, assures us that Gen. Eaton had publicly mentioned a conversation he had with the President, in the early part of this week, in the course of which, Mr. Jefferson told Gen. Eaton that, special instructions had been given to com. Barron to suffer no officer of any nation to take from him any man or men under his command, but to be prepared to resist any such attempt at any hazard.
We have seen a letter from a gentleman of the naval department, which states that, if the Chesapeake was not in a condition to fight, it was not from a want of every requisite that government could supply.
The Marquis Yrujo, late minister to this country is about to depart for the court of Milan in the kingdom of Italy, to succeed the Chevalier Don Nicholas Blasco de Orozco, who has been appointed minister to the United States. This is a mark of the good will of Spain, to our government, which we are happy to acknowledge. The Chevalier de Foronda will act as charge des affaires, until the arrival of the minister appointed.
MORE BRITISH OUTRAGE.
The sch. Wasp , captain Levely, which has arrived at Baltimore from Barracoa , was chased up the Chesapeake as far as the middle ground by an English cutter from Lynhaven bay, and had several shots fired at her.
We understand the Secretary of the Navy has ordered all the Gun Boats belonging to the United States, to be fitted for service with all possible dispatch.
The British Ambassador was at New-York when the late attack was made on the Chesapeake .
The ville corps, of Alexandria , have rendered their services to government. The committee of the inhabitants of Philadelphia , have taken possession of the British brig Fox , because she was found with military stores, &c. which it was supposed were intended for British men of war.
Extract of a letter from Halifax , dated June 29. "The noted pirate Ross , with 18 of his associates, ( French , Spanish and American .) arrived on Friday last in his Majesty's sloop Driver , which on the 12th inst. captured the pilot-boat sch. El Bolardo , of one gun, fitted out at St. Augustine . They may all be hung—if no commission is found."
At Cadiz on the 16th of May, four French ships of the line & a frigate in readiness for sea. Spanish ships are totally uppr. aid.
NEW-YORK, JULY 7. EUROPEAN ARTICLES.
By the way of New-Bedford we have received London papers to the 23d May:—But they do not furnish much food for the Quid Nunc . The Expedition, if so tardy a thing as that preparing in England , could be called by that name—was crawling on; and transports were assembling in the Downs to receive 10,000 foot, and 4,000 horse. Whether Sweden had, or had not, ratified the armistice with Bonaparte , remained doubtful;—though the last account stated, that the gallant Guillavus Adolphus had written to his General, Eisen , "I learn with much displeasure, that you had concluded an armistice with Napoleon , Commander of the French armies, &c.—I contemn his proffered friendship, and consider that my honor, as well as the interest of my people, impose on me the necessity of treating him as an enemy." A Gottenburg paper, of May 11, says, that on that day the King, accompanied by old General Toll , sat off from Malmö for Ystad to embark for Pomerania ; where he meant to put himself at the head of his troops, which he expected would be reinforced by 30,000 Prussians and British . The siege of Danzic had become highly interesting!—The French had made numerous attempts to carry the town by storm; and the garrison had made many sorties. All the late commercial differences between Russia and England , had been amicably settled. Austria had made a Conscription of all her subjects from 17 to 40 years of age; and her cabinet was active; and she was balancing between War and Peace . Vice-Admiral Sir James Saumarez commands the Channel fleet; and Vice-Admiral Ruichel , the North-Sea squadron. The Public Funds of England continued gradually rising; which indicated that the "knowing ones" located a Peace in the wind. The British were about to send provisions to the Russian and Prussian armies in Prussia . [ New York paper .]
A vessel has arrived at Baltimore , which left Amsterdam the 26th May (eight days later than the Hazard ) at which time there was no certainty of any battle having taken place between the French & Russian armies.
French bulletins, to the 77th, are said to have reached Guadaloupe , by an advice boat from France , which are represented to contain the details of some splendid victories obtained over the Russians .
SKETCHES
Relating to Britain , Russia , France , Turkey , Per , Asia , and India .
The last accounts from Constantinople , open new and gigantic prospects in relation to the Turkish or Ottoman empire. It appears from these accounts that the British fleet has abandoned the object of the expedition, and have repassed the Dardanelles ; that the military strength of that empire is called forth, and is under the general superintendancy of French officers—and that many of the fortified towns are under the command of Frenchmen . From these causes, allies, meaning the English and Russians are not only disappointed in the promised advantages, but will find an enemy in the Turks , roused by insults and injuries, and stimulated by the examples and excitements of the greatest military people of this planet.
The Turks can bring into the field at least 150,000 men, with ease— France has already collected an army of 100,000 men at Verona , consisting of French , Italians and Spaniards . All these can promptly invade Russia from different parts;—so that while the admirers of Vandalism , recall and invoke the days of Attila and Alaric , they will be made to tremble for Petersburgh .
The good understanding which exists between the French , Ottoman and Persian powers, opens to our view prospects of a still greater magnitude. It is an overland expedition through Turkey and Persia to India : and this is the way in which the emperor Napoleon will take revenge for the many injuries which France has received from the British rulers. He will, by the liberation of India , secure the freedom of the seas—the repose of Europe —the concord of nations—and the general and long violated rights of humanity and civilization—and
No more will the blood-stained Nabobs of India aggrandize themselves by the sword of destruction—no more will the shades of slaughtered and crucified millions cry out in vain from their graves for justice and revenge. Europe and Asia may henceforward be united by principles of common justice and mutual interest.
The British , it is true, may impede these events, but they do not possess, nor does the rest of the world contain the means to prevent the final execution. The British may, and perhaps will take possession of Egypt ; but there is no force which can be sent thither, which may not be opposed by forces which France can, and no doubt will send thro' Turkey to meet them. But what will be their chance of success, if the whole Ottoman power shall give its aid to the same object.
This is but a short and hasty sketch—every man who will make himself acquainted with the relative situation, population and true interests of these countries, will find that it does not require a prophetic mind to foretell, that such things as these are on the eve of partition. [ Pub. Adv. ]
A statement of the funds of New-York State in 1807, gives between 3 and 4 millions, with an annual revenue of about the fourth of a million of dollars.

Portsmouth,
TUESDAY, JULY 14, 1807.
At a large and respectable meeting of the inhabitants of this and the adjoining towns, held at the State-house in Portsmouth, N.H. on Monday, 13th July, 1807—for the purpose of expressing the sentiments of the people on the late unprecedented outrage committed on the flag of the United States—Jonathan Warner, Esq. was requested to preside as chairman, and Charles Cuts, Esq. to officiate as secretary.
The following gentlemen were chosen a committee to report Resolutions expressive of the sense of the citizens, on this momentous occasion, viz:—
The Hon. John Goddard, William Gardner, Joseph Whipple, Judge Sherburne, Henry S. Langdon, Jeremiah Mason, and Nath'l A. Haven,—who after retiring to the Senate chamber for a short time, returned with the following Resolves, which were unanimously accepted.
Resolved unanimously, That we view the treacherous, unprovoked and dastardly attack of the British ship Leopard, on the United States frigate Chesapeake, while in the confidence of friendship, as a violation of the laws of peace, as set forth in the President's proclamation, to be an act of hostility against the Sovereignty and Independence of our Country, which ought to excite the indignation and resentment of every American citizen.
Resolved unanimously, That the measures already adopted by our Administration, are in our opinion wise, prudent and dignified, and that we will cheerfully submit to any sacrifices which the necessity of the times may require in giving all possible support to them, and to all others our Government may think proper further to pursue for obtaining honorable reparation for the injuries and insults our nation has suffered.
Resolved unanimously, That the prompt, manly and patriotic measures taken by our Brethren of Norfolk, Portsmouth, Hampton, Richmond and their vicinities, before the will of our Government could be known, were highly honorable to themselves, and merit the thanks of every friend to American Independence.
Resolved unanimously, That whereas the effective power of a free nation essentially depends on the degree of harmony and confidence that is known to exist between the people and their rulers—That we will consider as enemies to our country, all who at such a crisis as the present, shall directly or indirectly use means to impede the due execution of such regulations as our Government may see fit to appoint.
We learn that the Squadron off Virginia dispatched a messenger to Norfolk, demanding permission to obtain a supply of water (in lieu of the 200 hogheads destroyed) and in case of refusal, threatened to bombard the town. The citizens of that Borough, it is said, returned for answer, "that they were prepared for the latter, in preference to aiding the enemies of their country!" [Ev. Post.
Extract of a letter from a respectable source states, that Capt. Decatur writes that the commanders of the British ships of war, say they will consider a proclamation similar to that issued against the Leander as an act of hostility, and will commence hostilities against us immediately, they have threatened to take the Chesapeake.—Dated Baltimore, July, 5th, 1807.
A letter from Baltimore, dated July 5th, says, "it is certain 4000 cannon balls, 24 and 32 pounders have been shipped by the Navy Agent here, for Norfolk."
It is proposed for the consideration of the militia and volunteer companies of the U. States, that, in consequence of the insults, vexations, injuries, plunder and repeated murders of the British navy—they agree not to appear on parade or duty in any stuff, cloth or apparel, of the growth, product or manufacture of the British dominions or dependencies.

POSTSCRIPT—by last night's mail.
PHILADELPHIA, JULY 9. From Washington we learn, that the Executive has resolved to call Congress, to meet on the 27th of October next; to send the Schooner Revenge with dispatches to our Ministers at the Court of St. James; that no retaliation to take place till her return, but in the mean time the seaports to be fortified, 50 gun boats to be prepared, and 100,000 militia embodied and prepared for immediate service.
We hear our Governor received yesterday, a requisition for 15,000 men as the quota from this state; to be embodied immediately.
Mr. Erskine passed hastily through Baltimore, on the morning of the 7th inst.

Extract of a letter from Baltimore, dated July 7. "Letters are received in town, by this morning's mail from the seat of government, stating, That Commodore Douglass, of the British Squadron, at our Capes, had arrived at Washington, supposed with pacific views."
ANOTHER LETTER.
Dated Philadelphia, July 8, 1807. "We have this moment received accounts from Washington, advising, "that Commodore Douglass and Capt. Humphries had arrived in that city."
We understand, that orders have been received for all the Marine Officers in this and the neighboring states, to repair immediately to Portland, for the purpose of manning the Gun Boats in that harbour.
A meeting of the citizens of New York, of the age of 40, and upwards, has been convened, for the purpose of forming themselves in corps of Artillery and Infantry, for the defence of that city. [Bost. Gazette.
The grand jury at Richmond have at length brought their researches to a close, after a steady and indefatigable investigation of eleven days, and have found true bills against the two most distinguished subjects of accusation.—Ample as the field of criticism is which the proceedings of the Circuit Court have opened, novel and strange as the course of proceeding has been on the part of the accused, we have forborne, and shall still forbear comment. The season for this may arrive. In the mean time, we content ourselves with two remarks. The first is, that finding of true bills by a grand jury of acknowledged respectability and independence, is a conclusive justification of the vigorous measures of the administration to crush a conspiracy of so formidable a nature, which by acts of treason was in progress towards consummation; for the bills found imply not only reasonable purposes but treasonable acts.—We consider, therefore, the clamor against the administration, as having blown its blast. Whatever may be the final issue, the decision of the grand jury proves the existence of danger and the necessity of averting or crushing it; and, however men may differ on the subordinate measures of the administration to effect this purpose, they must all admit the propriety of a strong and decided course of conduct.
Our second remark is that, in consequence of finding the bills, the nation will have a full and satisfactory disclosure of all the circumstances connected with the conspiracy. After this disclosure they will no longer grope in the dark. Suspicion and crimination and clamor, will no longer pass for proof. Men will be seen as they really are. The judgment of a court and jury will legally decide the guilt of the accused. The public, independently of this decision, will have the means of deciding for themselves, on the conduct of the administration, of Col. Burr, and Gen. Wilkinson. We shall, at last, have day light thrown upon scenes so thickly involved in obscurity. [National Intelligencer.

4th of JULY CELEBRATIONS.
[Selected for the Gazette.]
From EPSOM, (N.H.) July 6. THE thirty-second anniversary of our National Birth Day—the Day when the declarations of philosophy and patriotism, were joyfully received to take place of ignorance, superstition and tyranny, was celebrated in this town with unusual demonstrations of happiness. At 12 o'clock a large concourse of people, consisting of the officers generally of the 18th regiment of militia of N. H. in complete uniform, persons of distinction from the neighboring towns, and the inhabitants of this town, assembled at Col. James H. M c Clary's, formed a procession, and accompanied by martial music, marched to the meeting-house, where a pertinent oration was delivered by the Rev'd Mr. Osgood, of Lee. Occasional vocal and instrumental music was interspersed. When the performance was closed, the procession again formed and returned to Col. M c Clary's, where the company sat down to an elegant dinner provided for the occasion. Col. J. H. M c Clary presided, assisted by Capt. J. Sanborn. The cloth being removed, the following toasts were drank.
1 The event we celebrate—
2 The auspicious day be ever sacred;
3 No mourning, no misfortune happen on it;
4 Let it be marked with triumph and rejoicing;
5 The day! when political tyranny and spiritual intolerance were banished from our Country, and the declarations of Liberty and Equal Rights, welcomed by an enlightened People!—May that genuine, patriotic spirit which displayed itself on this day, ne'er cease to vibrate in the veins of Americans.

9 The Congress of the United States—May union ever prevail in their councils, and their measures always tend to the promotion of public happiness.
10 The Militia of the United States—The natural defence of our Country—their recent conduct in a Western State in suppressing a dangerous conspiracy, is a confirmation strong as proof of Holy Writ of the uselessness of extensive standing Armies, and of the readiness and ability of a well organized Militia to repel civil commotions or foreign aggression.
11 The American Army—Small in numbers, but in valor unexcelled.
12 Washington and Franklin—Their lives models for our imitation—Until gratitude is extinct in the breasts of Americans, their praises will dwell on our tongues.

14 The surviving Patriots of the Revolution—The rapid advancement of their country in the road to power and greatness, must afford them the happiest consolation in the evening of their lives, and the highest reward for their labours.
15 Louisiana and the Territories adjoining—Acquired by peaceful and honorable negotiation; may they never be surrendered to an invader but at the price of American blood.
16 Agriculture, Commerce and Manufactures—The sources of our wealth and prosperity.
17 Internal Improvements—An important step in the road to National greatness.
18 The Press—May it not degrade the American character by its licentiousness, but to conduct as to evince to the world that freemen are capable of enjoying the privileges they possess without abusing them.
19 The union of the States—May the traitorous villain who could contemplate their dismemberment, "flake hands with Asgard" and meet his reward in the contempt and execration of an indignant people.
16 The People of the United States—May they ever prove invulnerable to the intrigues and machinations of domestic traitors, or the corrupting influence of foreign enemies.
17 The American Fair—While virtue characterizes them, they must command the respect and admiration of the men.
VOLUNTEERS.

By John M c Clary—Sewers of Disford—May they be taken up by a whirlwind, meet with a pleasant voyage, and be safely landed in those countries where government, religion and politics are congenial with their own.
The most perfect harmony, order and decorum prevailed throughout the day; and the company separated at an early hour, "happy as happy could be."
CELEBRATION AT NEW-CASLE.
