From the GENERAL MAGAZINE. THE NEGROE'S COMPLAINT, A SONG, To the Tune of Hosier's Ghost: By W. COWPER, Esq.
FORC'D from home, and all its pleasures, Afric's coast I left forlorn, To enclose a stranger's treasures, O'er the raging billows borne. Men from England bought and sold me, Paid my price in paltry gold; But tho' their they have enroll'd me, Minds are never to be sold.
Sill in thought as free as ever, W: are England's rights, I ask, Me from my delights to sever Me to torture, me to task? Fleecy locks and black complexion, Cannor forfeit nature's claim; Skins may differ, but affection Dwells in black and white the same.
Why did all-creating nature Make the plant for which we toil? Sighs must fan it, tears must water, Sweet of our's must dress the soil. Think, ye masters, iron-hearted! Lolling at your jovial boards, Think, how many blacks have smarted For the sweets your cane affords!
Is there, as ye sometimes tell us? Is there one who reigns on high? Has he bid you buy, and sell us, Speaking from his throne, the sky? Ask him, if your knotted scourges, Petters, blood-extorting forews, Are the means which duty urges Agents of his will to use?
Hark! he answers—wild tornadoes Strewing yonder sea with wrecks, Wasting towns, plantations, meadows, Are the voice with which he speaks: He, foreseing what vexations Afric's sons should undergo, Fix'd their tyrants habitations, Where his willwinds answer—No.
By our blood in Afric wasted, E're our necks receiv'd the chain, By the miseries which we tasted Clossing in your barks, the main; By our sufferings since ye brought us To the man-degrading mart, All sustain'd with patience, taught us Only by a broken heart.
Deem our nation brutes no longer, Till some reason ye shall find Worthier of regard, and stronger, Than the colour of our kind. Slaves of gold! whose sordid dealings Tarnish all your boasted powers, Prove that you have human feelings Ere you proudly question ours!
A most excellent Wash for the Ladies. Take of fair clear water quantum sufficit, put it into a clean earthen, or china basin; then take a clean linen cloth, dip it in the water, and apply it to the face night and morning, or oftener, as occasion may require. This lotion cannot be too strongly recommended to the fair sex, on account of its purity and simplicity. It is free from all the inconveniences and nastiness of all other preparations of art whatsoever. It does not think as many others do; it does not corrode the skin, as many others do; it does not destroy the eyes, nor rot the teeth, as many others do; and it does not communicate itself by collision, nor betray the transactions of a secre- tete, as most others do.
PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 5.
We are informed that a gentleman is arrived in town from Carlisle, who brings information of a fire having lately happened in that town, which destroyed four houses and other property to a considerable amount; but we have no particulars of this disagreeable event.
GENERAL ASSEMBLY, Monday, October 27, 1788. P. M.
A motion was made by Mr. Lewis, seconded by Mr. Fitzsimons, that the members of this house severally take and subscribe the following oath or affirmation, viz.
"You do swear (or affirm) that you will support the constitution of the United States, as proposed by a convention of the said states at Philadelphia, on the 17th day of September, in the year of our Lord one thou- sand seven hundred and eighty-seven, and as the same has since been ratified in the manner therein prescribed."
It was then moved by Mr. Wright, seconded by Mr. Hoge, to postpone the further consideration of the said motion.
Which was carried in the affirmative.
Should every other obstacle to the temporary residence of Congress in this city, says a correspondent, be re- moved, the want of a corporation, or a city government, would alone be sufficient to prevent their settlement among us. It can never be expected that the members of the new Congress, with their numerous suite of foreign assistants, strangers, &c. will quit a city where they enjoy at all times the protection of laws, by means of an incorporation, for a place where a lawless and wanders- ing banditti of wheel-barrow-men, and the unwholesome effluvia of dirty streets, with many other nuisances, might endanger their health or lives, every hour of the day and night. It is to be hoped, that the present as- sembly (which we are assured is highly federal and patri- otic) will not rise before they publish a bill for remedy- ing the above abuses, and thereby restoring the credit of our city. Unless this measure is effected, it will be in vain to move for the adjournment of Congress to the once-celebrated, neat, and well-governed city of Phila- delphia.
ALBANY, October 30.
During the present term, the hon. the Supreme Court of this state, have issued a mandamus directed to John Lansing, jun. Esquire, Mayor of the city of Albany, on the application of Theodorus V. W. Gra- ham, Esquire—commanding the said Mayor to swear and admit Mr. Graham into the office of an Alderman of the second ward of the said city, pursuant to the char- ter, or shew cause to the said Court why the said Mayor should not execute his of- fice in that respect; which was returnable on Wednesday, the 29th of this month, on which day, his worship the Mayor ap- peared in Court, and prayed farther time to make his return, when the Court gave him until the first day of next term.
Graham, laid Mr. Gysbert Marfau under a rule, to shew cause within our days, why an information, in the nature of a quo warranto, should not be exhibited by the Attorney-General of the state, against Mr. Marfau for unlawfully holding and exe- cuting the office of an Alderman of the se- cond ward of the city of Albany, which rule has not yet expired.
POUGHKEEPSIE, Nov. 4.
Yesterday Capt. Livingston's company of artillery was reviewed in this town—a very considerable part of the company was in complete and very elegant uniform, and they performed the various exercises and evolutions of their department with a dex- terity and rapidity that would have done credit to more experienced soldiers. We cannot but consider it as a circumstance very favorable to the stability and credit of our governments, that the military emu- lation should so extensively pervade all ranks of our citizens; our militia not on- ly assume the appearance of a truly martial establishment, but are able to perform their duty with spirit, accuracy and address.

The Hon. Richard Peters, Esq. is cho- sen Speaker of the General Assembly of Pennsylvania.
Mr. CHILDS,
IT is a question with some people, whe- ther the new constitution will admit of electing representatives in the federal gov- ernment by districts. It is my opinion, it will not, on any fair construction what- ever. But if it would, policy would for- bid it.
1st. By dividing a state into districts and e- lecting one representative for each, the free- men are limited to one vote each; whereas in choosing from the state at large, every freeman has as many votes as the state may have delegates.
2d. The division into districts supposes what is not true, that genius, abilities, ho- nesty and other qualifications for legisla- tors, are equally diffused in a state; or else debars the freemen the privilege of choos- ing from among the best qualified.
3d. District elections will create and perpetuate those local prejudices and er- rors, which embarrass all our state pro- ceedings. The delegates will more or less think they represent their districts only, and not the whole state: Just as the deputies of a town or county in the state legisla- tures, think their business is to act only for their particular towns or counties. This is a very stupid opinion indeed, but it is of- ten discoverable—and should, if possible, be guarded against in regulating the fed- eral representatives.
Objection. The people should be ac- quainted with the men they choose—and their representatives should be acquainted with the interests and feelings of every part of the state: Therefore the people should be obliged to choose men from dif- ferent parts of the state.
Answer. All the people are not and never can be personally acquainted with
tion or public character; and this is gene- rally sufficient to direct them to a judicious choice.
As to the delegates' knowledge of the interest and feelings of people in every part of the state, it must be observed, that representatives in Congress act for the state, and not for districts. Their know- ledge therefore and their direction, in cases where their authority is subject to state control, must be derived through the legislature of that state, where all the in- terests, feelings, partialities and errors of all corners of the state are collected into a point.
The practice of electing from the state at large, has existed long in a neighbor- ing state, where the members of the Up- per House of Assembly are chosen in that manner. Those who are acquainted with its operation, suppose it the best mode. But its excellence depends much on a pecu- liarity in that state; which is, a double elec- tion. There are two annual elections; one in April, the other in September. In September, the freemen vote for twenty men, as senators. The votes are returned to the General Assembly in October, and numbered. The twenty persons, who have the most votes are said to be in nomi- nation; their names are published, and the freemen are confined to these at their elec- tion in April; and from these twenty, twelve persons are chosen for senators. A similar mode is ordained for choosing re- presentatives in Congress; except that they first choose for the nomination, dou- ble the number of representatives.
This mode has a singular advantage— the men of most information generally unite upon the best characters, and give a lead to the public mind; at the same time, the men who are candidates are held up to public view, always six months, and some- times three or four years, that their char- acter may be universally ascertained. It is for this reason that men are seldom thrust in or out of office suddenly by the vi- olence of party. They generally come into office gradually as their characters are known; and they usually go out of office in the same manner.
Arrivals at Philadelphia—Big Vulcan, Gardner, Teneriffe, Schooner Sally, Smith, New-York; sloop Polly, Woodman, Rhode-Island; sloop Betsey, Brooks, Baltimore.
On SUNDAY next the 9th inst. a CHARITY SERMON, will be preached, and a collection made in the forenoon, at St. George's Chapel, for the ben- efit of the CHARITY SCHOOL, in this city. An ANTHEM adapted to the occasion, will be sung by the Scholars.
The School at present consists of eighty-six Schol- ars, viz. fifty six boys and thirty girls. The chil- dren are instructed in the principles of the chris- tian religion and in psalmody; they constantly at- tend divine service at church on week days as well as on Sundays, and the greatest attention is paid to their morals.
The boys are taught reading, writing, arithme- tic and merchants accounts; the girls are taught reading, writing, arithmetic and needle-work. They are all annually clothed, supplied with fuel, and furnished with books, paper, &c. The School is regularly visited the first Monday in every month, and the children carefully examined by a commit- tee of the corporation of Trinity Church. When any of the Scholars are of a suitable age for dis- missal, and duly qualified, they are sent to proper trades or services, and others taken in their places.
This excellent institution is earnestly recom- mended to the patronage of the benevolent and humane. Orphans and the children of indigent persons are hereby snatched from ignorance and vice, preserved from the influence of bad exam- ples, and are qualified to be useful members of so- ciety. The support of this truly benevolent insti- tution is derived from voluntary donations, and col- lections at those sermons which are annually preach- ed for the purpose. These circumstances, 'tis hop- ed, will interest every generous and feeling heart in its behalf, and stimulate the benevolence of its friends to contribute for its support.

COAL TAR.
A Quantity of this Tar, and of black and clear Varnish extracted from Coal, is just arrived, to be sold for ready money only, by
Charles Wilkes,
No. 12, Hanover-square. The sole Agent in America for the British Tar Company. THE superior excellence of this Tar in preserving the bottoms of vessels from the worms, and in keeping them clean, has been proved by repeated experiments. It has been also found to be an effectual preservative of cast and wrought iron from rust. A description of the different kinds of Coal Tar and Varnish made by the British Tar Company, and of the various uses they may be applied to with the greatest advantage, with directions for using them, may be had as above. 29th Sept. 1788.
The following Certificate of an Experiment made in New-York, is added for the information of the Public. New-York, April 26, 1788. WE the subscribers do hereby certify that on or about the 18th June last, we attended at Van Tuyl's wharf, on the East river, in this city, where we examined three pieces of timber, all of the same dimensions, one payed over with Lord Dundonald's late invented Coal Tar, the other, two pieces with a stout thick coat of common ship stuff (pitch, tar, oil, and sulphur); that we afterwards saw them all chained to and sunk along side said wharf. That nearly six months after, to wit, on the 5th of December following, we again attended at said wharf, when in our presence they were all taken up, and on examining them, the piece done over with the Coal Tar appeared clean and entirely free from grass and barnacles, the other pieces were both very foul, one of them was almost covered with barnacles; that on cutting them in several places we found the worms in full possession of the two pieces payed with the ship stuff, scarcely an inch having escaped them. The piece done over with the Coal Tar was perfectly free from them, and as found and fresh as when put down. From the above experiment we are fully of opinion that the Coal Tar will preserve the bottom of ships from barnacles and the worms, and is worthy of the greatest encouragement. Signed) John Murray, Thomas Sanders, Andrew Van Tuyl, Stephen Crosfield, John Thompson, Wm. Rhinelander.
