Cabinet and chair-maker, next the Chapel, In Beekman-street, New-York. GRATEFULLY acknowledges the many favors of his friends and the public, and takes this method to inform them, that he has now on hand ready for the spring, an assortment of most elegant Mahogany furniture, such as he has no doubt will do himself credit, and give his customers satisfaction.

ALBANY, June 25. On the 23d inst. the Honorable General... met at the public buildings in this city... to the proclamation of his Excellency the... Governor. And yesterday the House of delegates... proceeded to the choice of a Speaker, when THO- MAS MATTHEWS, Esq. was appointed to that office, and after being conducted to the chair, he made his acknowledgments to the House for the honor they had done him—affixing the Members that he should act with the utmost impartiality, and endeavor to merit their approbation.—John Beckly, Esq. was also appointed clerk.
The Committee of the whole Convention got through the new plan of government on Monday last, and the debates have been since on the mode on which they should conclude this important business. Two plans are now before the Committee, one for ratifying the proposed plan of government, and annexing to the ratification certain reservations and declarations which ought not to be exercised by the Federal Government, the other in the form of a conditional ratification, which is, that previous to receiving the plan, amendments be recommended to the eight States who have already adopted the government, for their further consideration: these are principally a Bill of Rights and certain amendments relative to the proposed plan. The calm, cool, and deliberate manner in which this important subject has been investigated, will be a lasting monument of national gratitude to those venerable statesmen, who have so eminently distinguished themselves in forming this new plan of government—Posterity will, with gratitude view the services of this Convention—and with ecstasy and admiration they will contemplate, in the records of time, the magnanimity and disinterested patriotism which has been so eminently distinguished on this occasion.—A crowded audience have viewed with an awful reverence the distinguished order which has been observed during the debate—and whatever may be the ultimate decision of this Grand Assembly, we have no doubt but the unanimity will accede to it, with their usual love for their country—that harmony and good-will, will pervade the State—and the virtues of the majority will be echoed with applause throughout succeeding generations.
PHILADELPHIA, July 2.
Every human person must applaud the charity and benevolence of the Butchers, in purchasing two fine oxen, and collecting a sum of money, for the use of the poor, to afford them an opportunity of uniting in the festivity of the present auspicious occasion. It is hoped that this happy idea will be improved upon, and that the surplus of the money collected to defray the expenses of the proposed entertainment will be applied to the relief of the distressed. Some hundreds of pounds must remain beyond all necessary disbursements—and it could not be appropriated in any way more popular or laudable.
NEW-YORK, July 4.
A letter of the 1st inst. says, "That on Saturday the 28th ult. the Convention were still discussing the 1st clause of the 8th section of the 1st article, respecting the powers of Congress. Objections were at large stated, and amendments proposed by Mr. Williams, Mr. Smith and Mr. Lansing, who were answered by Mr. Hamilton in a most animated and powerful defence of the clause. Mr. Lansing in reply, let fall some expressions which tended to shew an inconsistency in Col. Hamilton's conduct. He asserted that in the Federal Convention that gentleman had agreed strongly that the State governments ought to be subverted or reduced to mere corporations. He compared these sentiments to those he had avowed in the present Convention, viz. That the State governments were necessary for the preservation of liberty. This called up Mr. Hamilton, who entered into a statement of facts; denied what the gentleman had asserted; declared that in the General Convention his ideas had been uniformly the same as on the present occasion: that tho' he at that time declared, as he had constantly and publicly done since, his apprehension that the State governments would finally subvert the general system, unless the arm of the Union was more strengthened than it was even by this Constitution; yet he had through the whole of the business advocated the preservation of the State governments, and affirmed them to be useful and necessary. He accused Mr. Lansing's insinuation as improper, unbecoming and un candid. Mr. Lansing rose, and with much spirit resented the imputation. He made an appeal to Judge Yates, who had taken notes in the Federal Convention for a proof of Mr. Hamilton's expressions. This produced some disorder in the Committee, and the Chairman was obliged to call to order. A motion for adjournment put an end to the altercation."
On Monday Mr. Yates was again called upon by Mr. Lansing for his evidence; to which Mr. Hamilton freely submitted. Mr. Yates made an apology for the possible mistakes of his minutes, and said that in the General Convention, Mr. Hamilton had urged strongly for giving the most complete sovereignty to Congress, and that in order to prevent the encroachments which he feared the State governments would make on the Union, they should be reduced to a smaller scale and be invested with only corporate powers. Mr. Hamilton observed, that corporate was an ambiguous term, and asked Mr. Yates if he understood that he (Mr. Hamilton) used it as descriptive of powers, similar to those of the city of New-York? To which Mr. Yates answered in the negative; adding that he understood the gentleman not to wish such a privation of powers as would reduce the States to mere corporations in the popular acceptance of that term; but only such as would prevent the Members from retarding in any degree, the operations of the united government. Col. Hamilton then asked him if he did not, after the above mentioned debate in the Federal Convention, hear him (Col. Hamilton) say, that his opinion was that the State governments ought to be supported, and that they would be useful and necessary: and further asked him if he did not remember that he (Col. Hamilton) had recommended (as an additional security to the State governments) a Court of Impeachments, to be composed by the Chief Judges of the several States, together with the Chief Justice of the United States. To all which Mr. Yates gave an affirmative answer. On Mr. Jay's proposing to Mr. Yates some questions with a view to set the matter in the most explicit point of light, Mr. Yates answered as before, that Col. Hamilton's design did not appear to him to point at a total extinguishment of the State governments, but only to deprive them of the means of impeding the operation of the Union. Some explanations were attempted by Mr. Lansing, but as Mr. Jay was already on his legs, the gentleman was called to order. Mr. Lansing afterwards expressed a wish that Mr. Yates's notes might be read; but it was not permitted on the suggestion that it ought to be brought forward by a formal motion, according to the rules of the Convention.
By an authentic copy of a letter of the 7th of February, 1788, from Capt. Isaac Stephens, a prisoner in slavery in Algiers, who failed from Boston the 25th of June, 1785, and was captured the 25th of July following near Cape St. Vincent, to his friend in Alieant, we learn that Capt. Coffin, from Nantucket, died of the consumption, in Algiers, the 2d of November last. That four out of twenty American prisoners in slavery were dead, and that the plague had been in that place nearly two years. That our unhappy countrymen in slavery, are in the greatest anxiety to be redeemed, and think themselves most undeservedly neglected and abandoned by their native country, to perish among infidels without relief. That Mr. Logie, the British Consul in that place, has done every thing in his power for their comfort, whilst Americans regard them not. Will not the sympathetic feelings of Americans who live in the highest enjoyments of civil liberty, excite them to a charitable contribution for relief of their unfortunate countrymen who so lately fought by their side; and obtained the noble prize of liberty and freedom for their common benefit?

That Congress erect no company of merchants, with exclusive advantages of commerce. 6th. That no person shall be tried for any crime by which he may incur an infamous punishment, or loss of life, until he be first indicted by a grand jury; except in such cases as may arise in the government and regulation of the land and naval forces. 7th.

That no standing army shall be kept up in time of peace, unless with the consent of three-quarters of the Members of each branch of Congress—nor shall soldiers in time of peace be quartered upon private houses, without the consent of the owner. 11th.

Extract of a letter from Clonmel, (Ireland) April 14. "In my last I acquainted you that the matter discharged from the bog had become confluent with the river Suir, a little above Golden, but that the influx was not so great as to endanger the safety of the bridges. I do not find that any material injury has been done, save to the fish, which I understand have been almost wholly destroyed from Golden to Carrick; the noxious quality of the matter discharged, and the continued gross muddiness of the water, have produced this effect. "The centre of the bog is much fallen, and the discharge is neither so constant nor abundant as it has been; large pieces of surface still fall into the fluid matter, and, being conveyed to the narrow pass out of the bog, they then become, not only a temporary obstruction to the flow of matter, but serve as a bridge for the country people to pass and re-pass the channel."
The frequency and continuance of those obstructions demonstrate that the matter does not issue with the same force as at first; hence we are induced to think, that the elevation of the bog does not now very much exceed the level of the pass through which the flow is, and consequently we may expect this extraordinary and destructive eruption will not continue much longer; but from the state the bog is in, and from the nature of it, we conceive it exceedingly probable, that a discharge of similar matter will, in future, be likely to succeed every wet winter. As the following account may be depended on, and was contained in a letter from a Gentleman at Corke to his Friend in Belfast—we publish it in addition to the accounts formerly published by us from the Dublin papers:
is capped with a turf bog of about a thousand acres in extent, and about fifty feet deep; this great mass was softened to such a degree by the winter's rains, that it could no longer preserve its convexity, and in making an effort to subside, burst its skin, and broke through a bank of its own materials on the side next Cahel where a great deal of turf had been cut for the supply of the city. A quantity of turf mud of the consistence of leavened dough, immediately issued from the rupture, and meeting with a hollow surface overspread it a half a mile in length and a bout two hundred yards in breadth; after this it met a wide inclined plain, of which it covered near an hundred acres; from thence it passes rapidly through a little glen about ten yards wide, three hundred long, and ten feet deep, when it expands on an immense plain so as to cover 200 acres, and continues to spread in almost every direction. This bog began to move about the 17th of March, and has continued its course to the Suir, whose silver streams I am informed are now defiled by the junction of this Stygian current, which in a passage of four miles has totally rendered useless valuable land, measuring at least four hundred acres by covering it with barren mud to the depth of five or six feet. There is a valley formed in the bog near the source, from the great quantity of matter discharged, and some of the solid parts on the surface appear floating and spread themselves like islands on the lake below.
"It is conjectured, from the considerable proportion that the quantity discharged bears to the immense fund from which it issues, that the flux will not cease for many months, perhaps years; but no further mischief is apprehended, as after its influx, it will be diluted and pass off innocently with the Suir of the Sea. These particulars have been communicated by an ingenious, sensible acquaintance, who went to the place to inform himself of the circumstances attending this extraordinary eruption."

Mr. CHILDS, MANY of your readers are disappointed at finding so valuable a piece of information as that of Col. Morgan's, respecting the insects destroying the wheat, discontinued after one day's publication. The truth upon so very important a subject should be carefully diffused thro' the country, and by being repeatedly presented to their notice, should be impressed upon the mind of every Farmer, who should be informed that Col. George Morgan is himself an experienced farmer, and a very accurate and careful observer, so that the most entire and the fullest confidence may be placed in his information. You and every printer are therefore requested to re-publish his address, and to continue it for some time in your paper, to which you may if you please, add this caution—that the bleating of this discovery respecting the yellow bearded wheat will soon be lost, unless the farmers are very careful to preserve this kind of wheat pure from any mixture with other kinds, which can only be done by sowing it by itself, and not near to fields of any other kind with which it will certainly mix, and from that mixture gradually lose its valuable distinction, the hardness of its straw, by which it is preserved from the insect.
THE HESSIAN FLY. Mr. CHILDS, OBSERVING a paragraph in your Daily Advertiser, addressed "For all the American newspapers," dated at Philadelphia, the 13th of June, and signed A LANDHOLDER—I am induced from the same motives with the writer, which I am sure were good, to inform him that his ideas respecting the Hessian Fly are ill-founded. As they may mislead others, who have had no opportunity to know this destructive insect, I beg leave through your useful paper to refer him, and them, to the publications of the Philadelphia Agricultural Society, on this subject, as they contain its true history. If the LANDHOLDER will read those publications, he will be convinced that his address may do much injury to many, who have not had the means of better information, however good his intentions may have been; and for this reason I recommend to all Printers, who have published his address, to give this as a caution against his recommendation. As a lover of my country, and a friend to the Farmers of the Middle States, I am further induced to declare, from experience, and a thorough investigation of the matter, that their absolute re-
Wheat, the sowing of which, by mistake, has occasioned much disappointment. That this declaration may have its full weight with all who know me, I give my name. New-York, GEORGE MORGAN, of June 24th 1788. Proprietor, New-Jersey.

THE PRINCIPLES OF THE

We therefore recommend it to all who are entrusted with the care of education, and particularly to the teachers in the different schools of this State. William Samuel Johnson, President. William Cochran, Professor of Languages. John Daniel Gros, Professor of Moral Philosophy and Geography. John Kemp, Professor of Mathematics and Natural Philosophy. New-York, March 25. w. f.

The Inhabitants of the City of
NEW-YORK
ARE respectfully informed, that the subscriber in- tends opening a NEW CHIMNEY OFFICE, at No. 21, Wall-street, two doors from Mr. James Livingston's.
He trusts he will be able to give general satisfac- tion to those who may please to employ him, (sig- nified by their becoming subscribers) as he is deter- mined to join unrequited affidavits to the pain laid down in the following proposals, which he flatters himself will meet the approbation and encourage- ment of the inhabitants of this city.
1st. To provide a set of Sweepers, as many as may be found necessary, under the distinguishing mark of a cap, on the front of which, will be the words, New Chimney Office, No. 21, Wall-street, men, to see the business performed.
2d. To allot every a proper district, in such man- ner, as that each subscriber's chimneys shall be re- gularly swept once every month, (or oftener if requi- red) at the rate of one shilling and three pence, for every chimney.
3d. To oblige himself to pay the fine laid by law, if the chimney takes fire within one month after it has been swept, by the people belonging to this of- fice, unless the chimney be cracked, or the fire be- gin in some other part of the house.
4th. To render the establishment of general pub- lic utility, in case of fire, the Sweepers shall be made to attend, and perform such services as may be required of them.
The undertaking merits the greater attention, as it will contribute in a particular manner, to render lives secure, and prevent the destruction of property, by conflagration, which too frequently originates in foul chimneys, occasioned, in some instances, by neglect of Sweepers attending at regular periods, and in others, not knowing where to apply.
Subscriptions will be thankfully received at the aforesaid place, and the plan will be begun upon the second June next. May 9. tf STEPHEN PATERSON.
