To the honorable the Justices of the Court of Common Pleas, for the county of Rockingham to be assembled in session the second Tuesday of August next.
THE petition of the subscribers, inhabitants of LONDONBERRY—humbly represents, that we the said subscribers conceive ourselves very much injured by a part of the road laid out last November by your committee, viz. Messrs. Blanchard, Godfrey and Gilley, Esqrs., through a part of said Londonderry, viz. from the west side of Mr. Andrew Moors house, eastwardly, through said Moors, the Rev. Jonathan Brown's and John Morrison, Esqrs.'s land to the highway near Mary Scobbs' house. The old highway that is now travelled upon, is very good, and has been made at great expense and cannot be discontinued by reason of a part of it being on the direction leading to Chester, and Sandown, &c. which the new proposed highway cannot accommodate. However the saving to the public will not exceed forty rods, and it will cost the town upwards of five hundred dollars to make the above piece of road good. Therefore your petitioners humbly pray your Honors to revoke that part of the report of the committee respecting the above specified road and discontinue the same, as your petitioners are in any bound will ever pay.
Signed by GEORGE RIED , and 93 other persons. Londonerry, July 22d, 1805. Rockingham, fs. Court of Common Pleas, August Term, 1806. Upon hearing and considering said petition, Ordered by the Court that the petitioners notify all persons concerned to appear before the Justices of the next Court of common pleas to be held at Portsmouth within and for the county of Rockingham, on the first Tuesday of January next, to show cause, if any they have, why the prayer of said petition should not be granted, by causing the substance of said petition and order of Court thereon, to be published three weeks successively in the New Hampshire Gazette, the last publication whereof to be six weeks before said term.

MISCELLANY.
THE following is a comparative statement of the two administrations, with regard to debt and taxes.
   Adams' administration. Jefferson's administration.     The revenue of Mr. Adams in 1799, and 1800 was, each year The revenue of Mr. Jefferson has averaged about   19,800,000 dls 11,500,000 dls.   During the administration of Mr. Adams the country was burdened with internal taxes. In the first year of the administration of Mr. Jefferson all the internal taxes were abolished.   During the federal administration of 12 years the public debt was increased During the administration of Mr. Jefferson the public debt has been diminished in five years   9,462,264 dls 20,000,000  
If the present administration be continued, and, with our honor, we can preserve peace, in twelve years, in which space of time the federal administration added to the public debt nine millions and a half of dollars, the republican administration would entirely discharge it. Then, in numbers, we shall be powerful, in national wealth, without an internal tax, rich, unembarrassed and vigorous. American Citizen.
From the Boston Chronicle. Messrs. Printers, THE unhappy catastrophe of the murder of young AUSTIN, has excited such general sympathy, that every circumstance relating to the melancholy event is considered worthy of public notice. The peculiar measures adopted by the friends to the culprit, from the first moment of the horrid act, cannot but lead to a suspicion, that some improper mode will be attempted at the time of trial, to give an improper bias on the subject. Observations were made in the Chronicle at an early period of the transaction, in reply to the many falsehoods circulated in the country injurious to the character of the deceased; but of late, every circumstance respecting the event has been cautiously avoided, lest it might be considered as an attempt to prejudice the public mind previous to the trial. The following communication on this subject you are requested to publish, for the perusal of the public. [CIRCULAR]
Boston, Oct. 25, 1806. Dear Sir—At the request of THOMAS O. SELFRIDGE, Esq. his Counsel, and Friends, we have engaged to publish, from our press, a judicial and authentic account of the TRIAL OF MR. SELFRIDGE, for killing Mr. CHARLES AUSTIN, upon the public exchange, on the 4th of August last, by the discharge of a pocket pistol.—In the case the Grand Inquest of the county should find a bill, either for man slaughter or murder. The volume will comprise the Presentment, all the Evidence, the Arguments of Counsel, upon both sides, and the Opinion of the Judges, as well upon the incidental points of law, which may arise in the course of the trial, as in their direct charges to the Jury. To the whole of which, will be subjoined an APPENDIX, containing a fair and impartial Statement of every transaction, which led to the unhappy catastrophe. The feelings of the public have been deeply agitated by this melancholy event, beyond what we recollected them to have been, by any occurrence, within the compass of our memory. When we consider the high legal character of our State Court, but more especially of the Chief Justice, who for many years has worn the complimentary title of "The Giant of the Law"—when we consider Mr. SELFRIDGE as Counsel at Law, in great practice, raised in a short time, by his industry and talents, unassisted by the extrinsic aid of personal friends, or family connections—flanding fairly with the Court and Bar, and possessing a cool temper, and a determined resolution:—when we consider the distinguished eminence of the Counsel, who have gratuitously embarked in the defence—such as Messrs. Otis, Ames, Gore, and Dexter, and when we consider, that the trial involves a principle, important above all others, to those who are not pugilists, the right of self-defence with a mortal weapon, there cannot fail to be an immense demand for the volume we propose to publish; but it will be necessary for us to know, with as much precision as possible, the extent of the demands, before the work is put to press, as it is expected to form a pamphlet of considerable magnitude. For this purpose, Sir, we wish to inquire whether you incline to engage any number of copies—and if any, what number you will engage, to supply your place and its vicinity? The terms will be 25 per cent. discount from the retail price,—and a note for the number supplied, transmitted, on their receipt, payable in 60 days, with interest after.
As this work will be the only official and authentic Report of the Trial, and the Copy-Rights secured, agreeable to law, there can arise no interruption to its sale, from any other publication. With respect, your obedient servants, RUSSELL & CUTLER. THE foregoing publication, appears to come from the press of Russell & Cutler, and carries strong marks that some improper management is contemplated to be pursued during this judicial procedure. Messrs. Russell & Cutler (through whose paper the publication which led to the distressing catastrophe was first promulgated) are to be employed by "T. O. Selfridge, Esq. his counsel and friends, to publish from their press, the only official and authentic report of this trial—with a copy-right secured, so that no interruption to its sale shall arise
from any other publication!" This trial therefore is so far anticipated by Russell & Cutler, who, in law, may hereafter be considered as accessories, as to monopolize a work of an immense sale, and which involves in it, "the right of self defence with a mortal weapon." This is also further urged, "as being peculiarly important to those who are not pugilists." Detached from the absurdity of such an exclusive right, in a business which will be equally open for others to report, the idea must be abhorrent to every man living in a state of civil society.—The idea may be familiar among gladiators, or in a state of nature, where each man has a right to revenge his own wrongs by murdering his antagonist; but the laws of God, and of civil society, embrace other tenets than are here contemplated; and we have reason to believe the christian authority, (above Bacon, Coke or Littleton) that "he who sheddeth man's blood, by man shall his blood be shed," is too powerfully impressed on the citizens, to sanction such barbarous principles. "Even in a state of nature, to use the words of Dr. Lathrop in his sermon on the Boston massacre the murderer forfeits his life; for it is plain, we have no security for life in the neighborhood of a person having a disposition and power to destroy us."
From the above document, clandestinely issued from the press which first published the infamous defamation which led to the murder, we are authorized to bring this subject again before the public. The death of an amiable youth will not be viewed with such apathy, as to suffer the printers who caused the action to take place, to insult the public on so interesting a subject. What abuse is contained in the declaration, that "at the request of T. O. Selfridge, Esq. his Counsel and Friends, we have engaged (we who began the affair) to publish the trial of Mr. Selfridge, for KILLING Mr. CHARLES AUSTIN, upon the public Exchange, by the discharge of a pocket pistol:—In the case the Grand Inquest of the county should find a bill for man slaughter or murder!" Gracious God!—is it possible that Mr. Selfridge, his counsel and friends, should presume to familiarize the public to the idea, that an indictment of man slaughter can be drawn on a case thus stated even by themselves? They declare the fact by saying, "for KILLING Mr. CHARLES AUSTIN on the public Exchange," which nearly corresponds with the verdict of the jury of inquest, who declared it "Wilful Murder, by the hands of Thomas O. Selfridge!"—What an insult on the chief justice is offered, by connecting such disgraceful principles with the complimentary title of "the Giant of the Law."
This subject has become interesting, from the attempts at the first instance to get Selfridge bailed. A plea unprecedented in our courts from the first settlement of the country. Also, the various falsehoods sent into the country, and the other bases, to prejudice the minds of the citizens in favor of the culprit. The silence imposed on the friends of the deceased, while every means have been taken to give circulation to falsehoods in favor of the culprit. The uncommon procedure in the choice of jurors, both as to the number chosen, and the length of time previous to the trial;—above all that Russell & Cutler should so far be let into all the secrets of the trial, as confidently to declare that Messrs Otis, Ames, Gore & Dexter have gratuitously embarked in the defence of Mr. Selfridge, "a counsellor at law, in great practice, raised in a short time by his industry and talents, flanding fairly with the court, and bar, and possessing a cool temper and determined resolution." How came these two printers possessed of all these particulars, and by what authority do they pretend to know, that the trial will "involve a principle important to those who are not pugilists?" Do they mean by this, that a line is going to be drawn by the court, how far a man may be justified in killing another upon any affront given him? That a new mode of seeking satisfaction is to be adopted, by a mortal weapon, instead of an appeal to civil authority? How dare these men profane the title of "the Giant of the Law," as alluding to the chief justice, in such a mass of heterogeneous matter? The court, we hope, will call for an explanation from these printers. Further, it is not mysterious, that men who must be considered criminal, by publishing that which led to the murder, should thus arrogantly presume to make a profitable traffic on the fatal circumstances arising from their own illegal conduct? Can the Report of the Trial, as coming from such a source, be considered as candid or impartial?!
It is singular, that the killing of this young man should become so highly interesting to the four eminent gentlemen of the law, as to induce them to volunteer their services—That they should engage "gratuitously" in his vindication, and give Russell & Cutler liberty to send circular letters promulgating the fact. What makes the "killing of Mr. CHARLES AUSTIN on the public Exchange," so highly important in the consideration of these gentlemen, that they should condescend to inform Russell & Cutler of their benevolence, and permit them to circulate the interesting tidings? Is the death of a youth, so transporting a subject, that four such characters should step forward to palliate the action? However powerful their pleas may be, we trust in heaven for a vindication of innocence.—The friends of the deceased ask no favors, and they expect none to be granted. Their appeal is to the laws and constitution. They pursue no man for revenge. They view the subject interesting to the safety of society, and submit the cause to God and their COUNTRY.

Political Miscellany.
FROM THE AURORA.
The regal establishment of England.
Nero, Caligula, and Domitian were humans , till they had by the assistance of their ministers, overturned the few privileges which had remained to the patricians of Rome.
Tygers, wolves, and hyenas, whilst restrained by muzzles and chains, cannot pluck their savage thirst of blood and slaughter.
We hear frequent talk of the mercy, humanity, and christian qualities of the British monarch ; as if the scenes of massacre exhibited during the American revolution were wholly obliterated from memory and from history.
What sort of government, and what sort of mercy, would have been shown to the "sons of liberty," in this country, had they been conquered? We have exhibited from a staunch English royalist a handsome picture of the expense of the regality . What sort of government George III. is anxious to establish in Britain, let the benevolent and humane Mr. Howard shew. Certainly our manumission philanthropists will not dispute the words of the good Mr. Howard.
Let our British agents and anglo federalists, recollect that those cruelties were committed where the power of this holy monarch is unlimited, where his nod could have established mercy —and before the French revolution was so much as thought possible—attached to the electorate of Hanover is the bishopric of Osnaburgh, (i. e. it was when what we are about to quote was written.)
"Greatly to my astonishment, (says Mr. Howard in his history of foreign prisons)—I found that the rack, torture, and dungeons , are employed in other countries besides Spain and Portugal . At Osnaburgh , a method of torturing is used, which is so highly excruciating , that it is distinguished by the title of the Osnaburgh torture ! and the executioners are so expert at their hellish business, that whenever an excess of vengeance is intended against any delinquent in other states, they are constantly sent for . At Hanover also, the execrable practice of torturing prisoners is used in a cellar, where the engine is kept. In the year 1779, a criminal (that is a person charged with a crime ) suffered the Osnaburgh torture , twice in this city of Hanover. The last time, at putting the third question to him, after the executioner had torn the hair from his head, breast, &c. he confessed , and was executed." Thus far Howard.
Another traveller says—"having heard much of the mode of torture practised at Hanover, called the Osnaburgh torture , and which is applied by executioners purposely sent for from that bishopric (the duke of York was then bishop of Osnaburgh) I applied to be admitted to the cellar in which the engines of torture are kept—as my introduction was by a high officer of the court, I had the honor of a seat near the judges. The person who was put to the torture that day, happened to be a female , of family and respectable connexions, whose husband stood charged with some crime, but had escaped from his executioners—they seized his wife—to compel her by the torture of Osnaburgh to criminate him and his connexions.
"She was of the most exquisite beauty, and the judges feasted their eyes with a view of her person, already disfigured by repeated questions , as she lay extended on the rack , with only a loose garment thrown over part of her body—the Osnaburgh torture was applied in the manner that is related in Mr. Howard's narrative in all its exquisite refinements.—She persisted in her innocence—Her judges, the representatives of the elector of Hanover, celebrated for his social and domestic virtues, sat unmoved, either by her beauty, sufferings or protestations. They ordered the executioners to vary her tortures—the cords were drawn to the shortest. She was a mother !—from her beauteous and lovely but agonizing breasts, forced by the extreme of her torments, blood spouted, and covered the faces and clothes of her judges. She still asserted her innocence—executioner increase the question , was again the exclamation of those fiends of hell—with the most piteous lamentations she begged for mercy.—It was in vain—the executioner obeyed the mandates of his superiors, they hove once more at the rack —she shrieked, the name of her beloved babe and husband murmured on her trembling lips—nature was totally exhausted by shame and torture , the expired. Good God, never shall I forget the dreadful moment! And is this, exclaimed I to myself, staggering from this court of justice , is it my king , who governs with an absolute sway in this city!"
Read this you enemies of free government—ye infatuated anglo-federalists! Read this of every feudal and party , who are forever bellowing out on the mercies of kings —and contrasting the benevolence, the social virtues of George III. with others—read this.
Here is a portraiture to adorn your parlors—fit companion with those of Wilks, barre, Paoli —and the Jersey prison ship .
The federal votes in Connecticut are nearly a thousand less than three years ago, and yet the federalists affirm that they are rising.
Blessings of Royal Government!!!
A late London paper states, that "so great has been the increase of the POOR RATES in England and Wales, that the total amount for the last twelve months, was five millions, two hundred and forty-eight thousand six hundred and seven pounds sterling "—and that "the average rates of the levies for the poor tax in England was 4 shillings and 5 pence in the pound on the rents—the average rate in Wales was 7 shillings and 3 pence in the pound."
What would the people of this country think if (in addition to innumerable other taxes which Englishmen have to pay) their poor tax alone should amount to more than one third of the yearly value of their property ?
After looking at the oppressed and impoverished condition of the people of England, it may not be amiss to cast our eyes upon another picture which that country presents—of a very different appearance.
According to a late statement of Cobbett's, taken from official documents, the expense to the nation in the year 1803 (and it is greater now) of supporting the king the queen & the maiden princesses , was five hundred and ninety one thousand seven hundred and forty nine pounds sterling !!! Beside the income from lands, prizes, &c.
In addition to this enormous sum, the other branches of the ROYAL FAMILY receive from the scanty earnings of the miserable nation the following sums annually, that is to say—
 Duke of York, £20,000 sterling.  Duchess of York, 4,000 do.  Duke of Clarence, 14,500 do.  Duke of Kent 12,000 do.  Duke of Cumberland, 12,000 do.  Duchess of do. 4,000 do.  Duke of Sussex, 12,000 do.  Duke of Cambridge, 16,000 do.  Prince of Wales, 60,000 do.  Princess Charlotte } of Wales, 6,000 do. 
And a bill was before Parliament at the time Cobbett made this statement, for making the following additional allowances, viz.
 To the Duchess of York, £1333 sterl.  Duke of Clarence, 4000 do.  Duke of Kent, 4000 do.  Duke of Cumberland, 4000 do.  Duke of Sussex, 4000 do.  Duke of Cambridge, 4000 do. 
What can, by any candid man, be thought of the Government of that country—in which, on the one hand, as Cobbett says, "every laborer having a family is a pauper, and cannot possibly get even victuals to sustain life"—and on the other hand, these vampires of the nation, the members of the royal family—are squandering yearly thousands, tens of thousands and hundreds of thousands, drawn from the unceasing labor of the wretched people!—On the one hand, the taxes to support the book of the nation amounting, in England and Wales alone to between five and six millions of pounds sterling —(between twenty-three and twenty-four millions of dollars) and on the other hand, one SINGLE FAMILY spending of the people's earnings, EVERY YEAR, seven hundred and fifty-seven thousand seven hundred and forty nine pounds sterling —(between three and four millions of dollars) besides vast incomes not included!
Can such fruit be produced from a good tree?—Or can any American who is not either an arrant knave or a downtright ideot , wish to see a tree which produces such fruit planted in our soil?
Let those who view this inexpressibly iniquitous system with just abhorrence and detestation, be ever careful that neither their words nor deeds, their acts nor omissions, tend to the introduction of a similar system into the United States.— Trent. True Amer.
BY THE MAILS.
BALTIMORE, NOV. 5, 1806.
Extract of a letter from an officer dated Rapids of Red River, September 20, 1806 , communicated for the Evening Post .
"DEAR SIR, "We are within sixty miles of Natchitoches, where we have met Claiborne and letters from Cushing, which leave no sort of doubt, that the Spaniards mean to dispute ground with us at the point of the sword; and that they are augmenting their forces. The governors Cordero and Herrera will be opposed to the poor American Brigadier " Faret mieux ." The general has called on the two Territories for Militia.—Claiborne will furnish 450 and Mead 250 men only; no matter, we have a few hundred confidential, and the greater the disparity of force, the more fame. We shall be ready in ten or twelve days and then the governors must retrograde, or taste our steel.—Claiborne and Cushing have remonstrated strongly and repeatedly to Herrera, who with much decision repels their demands and reiterates his determination to maintain the territory of his master, east of the Sabine .—The rights of humanity and the genius of his country will induce general
W to make one more attempt at conciliation, but he will be prepared to strike the moment it is rejected.—The accounts we have of the Spanish camp and equipments are marvellous; they are represented as disorderly, undisciplined and overcharged with the precious metals. What think you of a subaltern bringing with him thirty thousand dollars for pocket money in doubloons. Who knows but we may make a coup d'or and secure a birth in the bed of honor—fifteen days will decide."
The following articles from the Political Register , if correct, indicate the speedy gathering of a severe storm in our Western country. They are probably predicated on the report in circulation a few days past, "that the President had issued a process, on a charge of high treason, to arrest a certain individual who once stood high in the opinions of his countrymen, and whose late conduct in the Western country has been marked by public suspicion." How far the preceding report and the articles which follow are founded on facts, we are at present unable to say; but we fear they are not all mere fiction, and that there must be some cause that could give rise to reports so flagrant, and suspicion, so strongly indicative of hostility to our repose. It is a notorious fact that the circumstances of a late great man, discarded by the people from a secondary station in the administration of our affairs, are rather of a desperate stamp—that he has been lurking through the western country for a considerable time—a gentleman in his manners—finished in intrigue—how far may he be concerned in the detestable purpose of aiding in the division of our territory. We sincerely hope it may prove to be a bubble, and should we be disappointed in our hopes, may the projectors and abettors meet the fate which is due to every Traitor to his country .
A Gentleman just arrived from Washington, whose veracity and correctness may be relied on, reports, that a letter had been received at that place, by a Mr. Henderson, employed in the navy yard, from his brother, resident in Kentucky, stating that, in consequence of a commotion of the people, who had declared that country independent, he was about to remove his family to Culpepper in Virginia.
The serious nature of this report forbids us to repeat the names of the persons implicated as leaders, until the authenticity of the report is fully ascertained.
The President of the United States was seriously indisposed on Tuesday, and by the last accounts was still confined.
Extract of a letter from Savannah (Georgia) to a gentleman in New York, dated Oct. 16, 1806.
"This city has been under arms for two nights past expecting an insurrection from the Blacks. It appears that several meetings had taken place about four miles from town where they had agreed to attack the whites in the city; they had appointed generals and other officers.
According to their plans they were to make three separate landings; one at Waynes wharf, one at the Coffee House wharf, and one at the fort.—They were then to set fire to the town and massacre the whites. But a difference existed between two of their leaders, and one of them divulged the secret early the evening before yesterday, in consequence of which the different companies of volunteers were stationed under the Bluff, and the Militia at Spring Hill, where twelve of the head men of the insurgents were taken and will be tried in a few days. Having been so fortunate as to take the head men, we have now I think little to fear, as the rest appear to be quiet. The negroes are to the whites as eight to one!"
Extract of a letter from a gentleman at St. Charles to a gentleman in Frankfort, (Ken.) dated 23d Sept. 1806.
"I have the pleasure to inform you of the arrival of Capt's Lewis & Clark. They were the first white people that ever visited that country. By the best accounts they could get, there are about 90 or 100,000 inhabitants, (Indians) on the west side of the Rocky Mountains; horses without number. It is thought to be a very poor Indian that does not own 300 horses—not an iron tool among them. They erected a fort on the sea shore, and engraved their names. They have brought a number of curiosities; among which is a wild sheep; its head and horns weigh about 80 or 90 pounds. He was caught on the Rocky Mountains.

LATEST FROM EUROPE.
Capt. Perry, of the ship Thomas, (arrived at N. York on the 9th inst.) left Amsterdam on the 20th of Sept. and furnished the editor of the Mercantile Advertiser with a file of Dutch papers to the 13th. Under that date from Amsterdam, the only interesting article is one which informs us of a convention having been entered into between the two houses of Saxony and Brandenburg; that on the frontiers of Saxony the French have a formidable force of not less than 30,000 men; and that the Prince of Hesse Cassel remained in a state of inactivity as to military preparations.
Verbal accounts from Amsterdam state a report that Russia and Prussia had formed a coalition, and declared war against France; that Sweden had offered to assist the two former powers to the utmost extent of her resources; that a Dutch camp, to consist of 16,000 men, was forming at Utrecht; and that a fleet of 7 sail of the line, under Admiral De Winter, was at anchor in the Nieu Diep.
On the 21st of September, off Dover, Capt. Perry was boarded by the British gun brig Tygrest , and informed by her commander that Lord Lauderdale had returned to England without concluding a Peace.
Markets in Amsterdam for West-India produce were on the rise, in consequence of the prospect of the renewal of hostilities on the continent.
LEIPSICK, AUG. 23. Military Force.
The publication of the Ukase , which orders the extraordinary levies in the Russian Empire, in order to carry the army to 500,000 men, has given rise to several new calculations on the military forces of the four great military powers of the European Continent, such as they were considered before the treaty of Presburg. A justly esteemed writer has given the following statement of them:
  Infantry. Cavalry. Total.    France, 516,000 88,000 604,000  Russia, 340,000 62,000 402,000  Prussia, 232,000 44,000 276,000  Austria, 170,000 40,000 210,000  
The author observes, that with regard to France, he has only valued the troops purely French; for that in comprehending those of the Federative states, the Forces of that Empire will amount to upwards of 820,000 men. With regard to Austria, her army, far from being recruited since the war, has even been diminished by dismissals. Before the campaign of 1805, it was estimated at 385,000 fighting men.
The editor of the Aurora has given a singular communication, which will arrest the public attention. From his own knowledge, he assures the public, that the Editor of the new paper in New York, does not pass under his true name; that he has been in the pay of the official paper of the British treasury, and such like things. We may expect a serious investigation of these things.
A peep into Futurity—the effect of Astronomical Labor.
Thomas Tolman, Esq. of Greensboro' has made a calculation of all the Eclipses of the Sun and Moon which will happen within one hundred years to come, ending with 1905: and has therein reduced the mean to the true times, by four Equations; and also reduced the Sun's mean distance from the Nodes to the true, for each time. In this period there will be four hundred and four Eclipses of the Sun and Moon. The notable Eclipse of June last, will return five times within this period, with some variations each time, as respects the earth generally, but more as relates to any particular place. Rutland rep.
We are glad to perceive that the manufactures of our own country are daily gaining ground in public estimation. A company has been some time established in Philadelphia, for the purpose of vending goods produced from materials of domestic origin and manufactured principally in the State of Pennsylvania. Already they offer for sale blankets, flannel, coarse linens, woolens, calicoes, bedticking and a variety of other goods, considerably cheaper, and much superior in quality to those imported. It is the duty of every American to encourage those establishments that tend to render his country more independent, and its citizens more industrious.
The Congress of the United States will meet at Washington the first of next month. Several members are on the road for the seat of Government.
The public are cautioned against receiving Stereotype bills of the Exeter Bank, altered from one to six dollars, very well done.
POSTSCRIPT.
By last Evening's Mail.
By the politeness of Mr. Davis, a passenger in the Galen , we have received London papers to the 20th of Sept. They leave the affairs of Europe, with regard to Peace or War, in the same unsettled state as our previous advices. [Chronicle.
Capt. Nelson, arrived at Charleston from Havana, informs, that a few days before he failed, a Spanish packet arrived at Trinidad, (Cuba) in 30 days from Old Spain. Letters by this arrival were received at Havana, stating, that East and West Florida had been ceded by Spain to France, and by France to the United States.
MIRANDA DEFEATED.
Capt. Foller, arrived at Boston on Saturday last, in 25 days from Trinidad, informs, that three days previous to his sailing, a Mr. Taylor, who had embarked in the expedition with Miranda, reached that place with the unpleasant intelligence of their defeat in landing at the Caraccas. He stated that the troops which Miranda had collected at Trinidad did not amount to more than 400; that with this additional force he had proceeded on his expedition; but immediately on his landing, was attacked and totally defeated; that Miranda lost in the engagement the greater part of his troops; and with difficulty secured his retreat with the wreck of his little army, in one of the small vessels belonging to his squadron. The Leander was also captured and Capt. Johnson, who commanded her and most of his Officers, were beheaded. [Boston Gaz.
By the last accounts from Louisiana, the most energetic measures had been pursued to protect the country from any molestation by the Spaniards. The Soldiers had been addressed with great success, by the enterprising men who were in commission in the Western army, and by such brave men as had accepted voluntary commands on the occasion. Gov. Claiborne, at Natchitoches, had addressed the Chief of the Caddo nation, on the 5th of September. His Speech, in its kind, is valuable, but too lengthy for our design, and the answer of the Chief is reported very favorable.—"You request that our wars in future may be against the deer only. That is what we ourselves desire. Your words which I have this day heard, shall be imprinted on my heart"—Cowles Mead, who had the Government of the Mississippi, addresses his fellow soldiers with military ardour, and closes, "I am proud of my political station among you. I feel the dignity of my responsibility, and should we be constrained to unfurl the bloody flag, I shall engage with implicit reliance on your personal bravery and support." On the 23d. August, Mr. Freeman returned to Natchitoches, having ascended 430 miles above that place. A Spanish party opposed his progress, and he conceived it to be his duty to return. He speaks favorably of the banks of the river, and as easily cleared for cultivation. Gov. Claiborne had been at the fort, and had returned to New Orleans to make the necessary preparations for the support of the fort, and the organisation of an army of defence. The spirited measures do great honour to our country. In the letter from Capt. Lewis to the President of the United States, dated at St. Louis, 23d September, he informs, that with his party, he wintered near the mouth of Columbia river, which empties into the Great Ocean.—They set out on the 27th of March last, and reached the rocky mountains on the 10th of May, and were detained by the snows till the 24th of June. He found it 2575 miles from the mouth of the Missouri to the great falls of that river. Then he passed by land the Rocky mountains to a navigable part of the Kootkoofke 340 miles, of which the greater part might admit good road, and 140 over high mountains, for 60 miles, covered with snow, and then 73 miles down the Kootkoofke into a S. E. branch of Columbia, and then 154 miles down to the main river of Columbia, and then 413 miles to the Pacific or great ocean. In all 3555 miles from the mouth of the Missouri to the mouth of the Columbia. A more particular history of this enterprize, which reflects great honor on the traveller and his country, may be expected, and a generous public will undoubtedly reward such services by a consent to national remuneration and by public bounty.

To our Dover Correspondent. We acknowledge the receipt of a Piece from Dover, similar to one in the last Oracle, giving the result of the council, in respect to Mr. Hurlbut's not being ordained,—with many harsh and uncharitable comments on those who remonstrated against the ordination;—from a careful perusal of which, we should have expected better things from such a source.—“Charity,” we read, “suffereth long, and is kind.”—The remonstrance, we understand, was from a respectable source, and we would not, we dare not say, but their motives were of the purest kind.—The Gospel, our commentator above alluded to, contends for, says, “Judge not that ye be not judged, for with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged, and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.”—Therefore, we must decline giving it publicity, and would recommend to our correspondent a careful perusal of the 7th Chapter of Matthew, from which the above scripture text was quoted from the lips of the great author of the Gospel.
GAZETTE MARINE LIST.
Portsmouth, November 18, 1806. Sunday the 9th inst. arrived brig Joleph, Capt. H.

.....DIED.....
In Baltimore County, Maryland, Mr. BENJAMIN BENNEKER aged 73, a black man, and an immediate descendant of an African father. He was well known in his neighborhood for his quiet and peaceable demeanor, and among scientific men as an astronomer and mathematician. In early life he was instructed in the most common rules of arithmetic, and thereafter, with the latter part, with the assistance of different authors, he was enabled to acquire a perfect knowledge of all the higher branches of learning. Mr. B. was the calculator of several almanacs, which were published in the southern states, and although of late years none of his almanacs were published, yet he never failed to calculate one every year, and left them among his papers; preferring solitude to mixing with society, and devoted the greater part of his time to reading and contemplation, and to no books was he more attached than to the scriptures. At his decease he bequeathed all his astronomical books to a friend.
At Peterham, (Mass) DANIEL BIGLOW, Esq. one of the Senators of the Massachusetts Legislature, aged 54.
At Londonderry, suddenly, on the night of the 8th inst. Mrs. MARY WARNER, wife of Mr. John Warner, jun. in the 48th year of her age—She went to bed apparently in health, and was a corpse in two hours after—She left 13 children, and her husband to bewail the loss of an agreeable wife and tender mother.
In this town, Mr. JAMES FOSTER, aged 45;—Mrs. ABOT, aged 75;—a child of Dr. Pierrepont.
On Tuesday 18th inst. departed this life, in the 28th year of his age, Capt. JOHN YEATON of this town, to the great grief of his aged mother and sorrowful brethren, sister and friends, among whom was an amiable young Lady, with whom the rites of hymen would have connected the deceased in the connubial state, had his life been spared a little longer, but death the grim tyrant of the stage, often blasts the hopes of temporal enjoyments;—His remains were attended to the silent grave, by a train of mourners, relatives and friends, notwithstanding the inclemency of the weather.
This young gentleman had taken up his residence in Alexandria, Virginia, with promising prospects, and was on a visit to his friends in this town, but an obstinate complaint soon put a period to his earthly career, altho' assisted by the efforts of skillful physicians. In this gentleman contented the dutifulness of a son, the affections of a brother, and the sincerity of a faithful friend. He had experienced the vicissitudes of life in many scenes of affliction and misfortunes for the short space of his existence, but had recovered from them with the promising hopes of future happiness.

Miscellaneous Repository.
From the Portland Argus. POEM BY A YOUNG LADY. CELESTIAL rays of love divine, Flows from our Heavenly Father's hand...
Creation feels the shock of love, With energetic power display'd; Beholds our God enthron'd above, In spotless robes of truth array'd.
When mortal man enjoys a share Of the eternal God of love, How doth his grateful heart declare The praise of Him who reigns above.
His mind aspiring, mounts on high, A song of praise to God he gives; He views his soul no more to die, In Christ our Lord he ever lives.
Eternal life comes by his blood, His boundless grace is free to man, Overflowing like a shower's flood, His beatific unerring hand.
From darkness, that inhuman foe, To endless light he doth us bring; That truth from falsehood we might know, And praise our everlasting King.
Black unbelief, with darkening veil, Often beclouds the human mind; And oftentimes our faith doth fail, While darkness does our hearts entwine.
But hark! what promises I hear, From him who is the Great Supreme; Enchanting words, to me how dear To dwell upon this glorious theme.
That Satan's kingdom soon shall fall, And vanish like the morning dew; And God the Saviour, all in all, Shall the whole race of man renew.
From sea to sea his love shall spread, By all the nations be enjoy'd; All feasting on the living bread, And not one soul shall be destroy'd.
Then join to praise Jehovah's name, Whose Christ did for all nations bleed, And did from sin mankind redeem; This is our heavenly friend indeed.
SCRAPS.—In marriage, prefer the person before wealth, virtue before beauty, and the mind before the body; then you will have a WIFE a FRIEND, and a COMPANION.
The gifts of nature and accomplishments of art are valuable but as they are exerted in the interests of virtue, or governed by the rules of honor.
Triumph, applause, acclamation, are dear to the mind of man; but still it is a more exquisite delight to say to yourself, you have done well, than to hear the whole human race pronounce you glorious, except you yourself can join with them in your own reflections.
He that commends another, engages so much of his own reputation as he gives to the person commended; and he that has nothing laudable in himself is not of ability to be such furely. The wise man applauds him whom he thinks most virtuous, the rest of the world him who is most wealthy. MAN is the only being endowed with the power of laughter, and perhaps he is the only one who deserves to be laughed at.
The bloody minded Parson. "Your unchristian virulence against me," said a clergyman, "will cost hundreds of people their lives." This menace brought the author into trouble; he was cited to a court of justice, and charged with harboring the most bloody designs against his fellow subjects. However, it was proved in court, that his real meaning was, if he was not allowed to preach, he would practice as a physician.
