NEW-YORK, July 10.
Extract of a letter from Poughkeepsie, dated July 8. On Friday last the 4th inst. a very disagreeable fracas happened in the city of Albany; all the particulars of which, as far as they have come to my knowledge are:—That the Federalists having received the news of the adoption of Virginia, last Thursday evening, proposed having a procession the next day; but on the remonstrance of many of the Antifederalists that it would be disagreeable to them, they gave up the idea. When the next day came, July 4, it was mortifying to the Federalists to observe a party of about 50 Antifederalists marching in procession to a vacant lot in the skirts of the town, where, after firing thirteen guns, they burnt the Constitution. The Federalists who were then collected, determined immediately to have a procession; and having arranged themselves, began a march through the principal streets of the city; they met with no interruption till they came to a narrow street in which a Mr. Dennison lives (I believe Green-street), when they were ordered not to proceed, by a large party who had collected there to oppose them; after a few words, a general battle took place, with swords, bayonets, clubs, stones, &c. which lasted for some time, both parties fighting with the greatest rage, and determined obstinacy, till at length the Antifederalists being overpowered by numbers, gave way and retreated, many into the house of a Mr. Hilton, where they made a second stand, and others into the country for safety. The Federalists attacked the house of Mr. Hilton, and in the victory, which they soon gained, did great damage to the building. Many of the parties were severely wounded in the conflict, and one poor man, a cooper, is supposed to have received a mortal wound from a bayonet. Several reports are circulating about men killed, &c. but are not to be relied on.
"It gives me pleasure that I can add that the dispute is since peaceably settled. P.S. Since writing the foregoing, I am informed that the wounded are twelve Feds. and six Anti-feds. and among the Feds. is a Mr. Graham, badly, tho' not dangerous."
We learn from Poughkeepsie, that on Monday morning the Convention had got through the Constitution by paragraphs, and were proposing several amendments as they went along.—That after they had thus got thro' it, Mr. Lansing rose and submitted a Declaration of Rights, which he said was intended to be inserted in the ratification.
[This Declaration will be given to-morrow.] On motion of the Governor, the Convention then adjourned till the next day, 11 o'clock, in order to give time to the gentlemen who have proposed amendments, to arrange and bring them properly before the Convention.
On Tuesday the Convention met, and after being informed by Judge Yates, that the gentlemen who were arranging the proposed amendments, would not be ready to lay the same before the Convention till the next day, they adjourned till Wednesday, 12 o'clock.
The Yeas and Nays for putting the New Constitution into operation by Congress, when the question was called, were as follows:
 New-Hampshire, Mr. Gilman, ay  Mr. Wingate, ay  Massachusetts, Mr. Dane, ay  Mr. Otis, ay  Rhode-Island, Mr. Arnold, ay  Mr. Hazard, excused.  Connecticut, Mr. Huntington, ay  Mr. Edwards, ay  New-York, Mr. L'Hommedieu, ay  Mr. Yates, no  New-Jersey, Mr. Clark, ay  Mr. Elmer, ay  Mr. Dayton, ay  Pennsylvania, Mr. Bingham, ay  Mr. Reid, ay  Maryland, Mr. Contee, ay  Virginia, Mr. Griffin, ay  Mr. Carrington, ay  Mr. Brown, ay  South-Carolina, Mr. Huger, ay  Mr. Parker, ay  Mr. Tucker, ay  Georgia, Mr. Few, ay  Mr. Baldwin, ay 
So it passed in the affirmative. Yesterday the quarterly examination was held at Erasmus-Hall, in the presence of many gentlemen from New-York and King's County, when the pupils acquitted themselves to the great satisfaction of all present, and gave such evidence of the abilities and attention of the teachers, as well as their own application and progress, as cannot fail of recommending that infant seminary to the patronage of the public.
Yesterday arrived the ship Betsey, Wheaton, in four days from Newcastle, Delaware;
Brig Amboy, Dykes, in fifteen days from Cape-Francis; and Schooner Nostra Signora de Aransaso, Pedro Echagaratta, in twenty-two days from St. Domingo.
The Schooner Juno, Barnswall, arrived at Tenerife the 4th June, all well.
Extract of a letter from East-Hampton, (Long-Island) June 29, 1788. "It is well known to many, that where a sandy shore is washed by the ocean, the bottom is subject to continual variation, which produce, or are produced, by a kind of eddy to the waves, by which any buoyant substance will be carried, sometimes with great rapidity, against the swell, back to the sea."
"The South side of Long-Island, especially at the East end, is remarkable for these reverting currents, which the natives call sea-pouse , and cautiously avoid."
"This shore is not less remarkable for the exercise of bathing, which the inhabitants in general suppose receives much efficacy from the impetuosity of the surf, as well as the coldness of the water; and it is truly wonderful, that of the many who have recourse to this adventurous exercise, so few are carried off."
"No event of kind has happened for a considerable length of time, till last Sunday morning, when a youth of about 17, being not much of a swimmer, had just taken a plunge into the waves near the shore, and finding himself going off, called out for help; a young man of the company, who is said to have swam very well, sprang to his assistance; but unable to stem the current, or even to cross it, they both went out with great rapidity, in sight of their anxiously distressed companions, and were buried in the sea."
"The body of the youth has since been found at Montague."
The following melancholy accident happened on Wednesday, the 2d inst. at New London, viz.—A vessel from Ireland, with a number of passengers on board, was lying near Fisher's-Island, and two boats were ordered on shore laden with materials to erect a tent for their accommodation—one of the boats was deep laden and towed by the other—when they had got within about twenty rods of the shore, the boat that was in tow sunk; the people immediately got hold of the other boat, which was small, and overset or filled her—by this accident
ten passengers, were drowned.
Last Thursday a young man named Stephen Heath, belonging to Massachusetts, in his passage from Long-Island, was struck overboard by the boat's boom, and drowned. He left in the boat, his hat, a coat, pair trowsers, and a knapsack with clothing. He likewise left a chest at Sagg-harbour.
The following are some of the presentments which were laid before the Grand Jury of the city of Charleston.
"3d. We present as a grievance, that the law is not put in force to prevent persons galloping horses through the streets of this city, to the danger of the lives of young children."
"4th. We present as a great grievance, the want of public wells in many parts of this city."
"7th. We present as destructive to the morals of the people, the number of tipling houses which are kept open during the sabbath day, attended by negroes rioting in drunkenness, to the grief of all well disposed persons."
"9th. We present as a grievance, the want of a sufficient number of public ladders, which are so necessary to the extinguishment of fire."

WILLIAM BEDLOW, Post-Master, No. 8, Wall-Street.
From the Pennsylvania Mercury.
TO BE SEEN, near the Jersey Market, price Two Coppers, a strange sort of an ANIMAL, half Man, half Quadruped, has the properties of a Snapping Tortoise, spitefully snapping and growling at his best friends and benefactors, whenever he hears the words Federalist, New Government, &c. &c. &c. mentioned, but happily his bite is not venomous, as his teeth are now worn out; he roves about from place to place, and is thought to be soon run mad. The public are cautioned to be wary of him. 'Tis supposed that he will endeavour shortly to make his escape to Carlisle, as 'tis said, at that place, there is a Nursery of a few more Animals of the same Species. A Correspondent assures us that this Semi beast was in this city some time ago; and says it is reported that the monster has his Eye upon either Shrewsbury or Burlington in New-Jersey as the Place of his future Residence:—it is hoped that our friends in that State will be particularly careful lest they should be bitten by him, for their Federalism will certainly excite his venom to an uncommon Degree.
SHIP NEWS—EXTRA. ARRIVED safe in port, the ship FEDERAL CONSTITUTION, Perpetual Union, commander, from Elysium. In her came passengers, Flourishing Commerce, formerly a resident in these States—Messrs. Public Faith, Confidence and Justice—Gen. Prosperity and National Energy.—The latter, we are told, is charged with a summons to Lord Dorchester, to deliver up to the United States the posts on the Western Frontiers, with their territory; and in case of refusal is enabled to take such measures as will be most likely to effect their surrender. On the arrival of these illustrious characters we felicitate our readers—the more particularly as they intend residing in our "dear country." The cargo of this ship is a good one—it consists principally of union, peace, friendship, mutual concessions, forbearance, and regard for universal prosperity, in 13 large packages.—One of these is consigned to Rhode-Island, and it is hoped will be cordially accepted. Same day failed the snow Old Confederation, Capt. Imbecility, for the Old World. There were no passengers on board—as she is known to be a weak vessel, and suspected to be rotten—so much so, that the owners could not procure insurance—She had on board sundry bales of English colours, worn out flying in our harbours, while our stripes are not suffered to unfurl, or our stars to twinkle in British ports—packages of paper money—pine barren and tender acts—local prejudices, jealousies, and feeds of discord. The sloop Anarchy, we are told, is ashore on the Rock of Union—and cannot be got off—the crew has perished, and the owners have broke.
OBSERVATIONS ON THE NATURE OF SLEEP. From a Philosophical Essay on Man.
MAN has two modes of existence, SLEEPING and WAKING. Sleep is properly only a mode of the existence of the body, in which every function of its organs is suspended, except that of the organs of life; in waking, every spring of the machine is, or may be in action. In both these states the soul perceives, thinks, recollects, and all its faculties are in exercise; but their exercise is performed differently in each of these states. Let us examine the relations of the soul to the body, and of the body to the soul, when sleeping. As sleep approaches, the vivacity of our motion decays, the weary limbs relax, and yield to their own weight, the head gradually declines on the shoulder, a sentiment of pleasure steals on every organ, and we seem to feel the gentle motion of the blood as it flows through the veins. The senses are now inactive, but no part is yet asleep, sensibility gradually leaves the organs; at length, the eyes yield to the pleasing influence of the God, and a refreshing calm reigns throughout the body. The soul likewise partakes of this enchanting stillness, forgets every thing, even itself, and imperceptibly sinks into insensibility. But in this universal repose, the mind is not inactive, its operations are only less sensible: the sensations are weak, so likewise are the sentiments and ideas, and the more so in proportion as the sleep is deep. Freed from the power of the senses, the soul now enjoys its liberty: it thinks, but its thoughts are irregular, incoherent, unconnected, and, from their assembly, are formed those fantastic images, those whimsical representations, those phantoms, and fleeting shades, which constitute our nocturnal illusions. In sleep, thought freely rambles over all kinds of objects, and imagination appears to be the only acting power. Though the soul at that time appears to be entirely freed from all subjection to the body, the disposition of the corporeal organs always determine the nature of the dream. If the sensation then felt by the body be agreeable, there is continual series of agreeable, pleasing illusions, and flattering images. On the contrary, if the sensation be painful, a succession of frightful ideas and hideous objects haunt us during sleep; monstrous phantoms, scenes of blood and death appear; ghostly goblins, and horrible spectres terrify us. The influence of the body is not confined to the nature of the object of our dreams; it likewise regulates their continuance. If the body is afflicted with any languishing disorder, these spectres and these phantoms seldom disappear, and seem to haunt us continually. On the contrary, if the body is affected with any acute disorder, the illusions are transient, the phantoms assume many different forms, and succeed each other very rapidly. There is something yet more wonderful in the analogy between the dream, and the then present situation. When we lie in any uneasy posture, whereby respiration is oppressed, and the circulation of the fluids obstructed, we dream of being pursued by spectres, forcerers, devils, while we have not the power to fly from them. In the heat of a fever, we dream that we are perishing with thirst, that we traverse immense regions in search of fountains, without finding any; and that when we have found one, we apply our parched lips to it, but the water flies back, and all our efforts to allay our thirst are in vain: so that, like Tantalus, we perish through want amidst the appearance of the greatest abundance. In dreams we think much, feel more, and reflect little: the sensations and images succeed each other with rapidity, but the soul neither compares nor remembers them. Though in general the soul reflects but very little during sleep, the degree of reflexion is not the same in every individual. The ideas, which strongly affect us while awake, are retraced in the mind during sleep, and we continue to combine them. Thus geometricians form and combine figures, poets make verses, and philosophers reason. When the body has been refreshed with rest, the organs of sense insensibly resume their functions, the pulse gradually quickens, and by degrees all those vain images, enchanting regions, and ideal object disappear. In short, man opens his eyes, and becomes conscious where he is.
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 blessing 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 loving 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 reliance (under Providence) must be on the yellow bearded Wheat, not the white, nor the red bearded 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. GEORGE MORGAN, of New-York, June 24th 1788. Prospect, New-Jersey.
DIRECTIONS.
SOW strong ground between the 10th and 20th of September, as far south as lat. 42 and proportionably later more Southward; and manure well with lime where it is convenient. As I have reason to believe this yellow bearded Wheat came originally from Chesapeake Bay or the State of Delaware, I have sent samples thereof to his Excellency General Washington, to John Dickenson, Esq. and to John Beal Bordley, Esq. to ascertain the matter, in hope of rendering an acceptable service to the States of Virginia, Maryland and Delaware.
