Mr. PRINTER,
IN your paper of yesterday, appeared an address to the sensible and delicate of the fair sex, in New-York, under the signature of Senex. A fear, that it may impress the minds of the credulous with erroneous ideas, has led me to the following reply. Our author sets out, by observing, that many excellent maxims, and much useful information has been given by the most eminent authors, for the conduct and government of the lives of females; and, that every relative situation in which they may be placed, has been separately, amply, and judiciously dwelt upon by the ablest pens. He then proceeds to paint in the darkest colours, the barbarous custom of employing physicians in certain situations of women; by pointing out its pernicious consequences. But, although our author figuratizes with the epithet of barbarous, a practice which humanity originally gave rise to, he admits that cases do occur where it becomes necessary to encourage it. Let us for a moment follow, that it should be confined to midwives—that the aid of physicians should be called for in cases of real danger only. I would then ask Mr. Senex, how this assistance is to be obtained, when men are denied the opportunity of acquiring that knowledge which alone can afford it?—Is the attendance upon a few cases of real danger (for man's limited state will not admit of his being more, if only one is to happen in many hundred lives) sufficient to gain that information which is requisite to relieve an unhappy sufferer from difficulty and danger?—How were those authors above-mentioned, enabled to afford so much useful knowledge?—Was it by being excluded from the chambers of women, at the only time when it could be attained? I believe it will be acknowledged, that practice alone can render any art useful; and it is to be regretted that any means should be employed to prevent the improvement of that, which has already preferred the lives of thousands. The other branches of the profession of medicine, are acknowledged to require not only much time and application, but also experience, to enable a man to practice them with reputation and success; and shall the useful art of midwifery be neglected by those, who alone are calculated to study it to advantage, to receive from other wise inevitable death, the fairest part of the creation? I hope no false ideas of delicacy and modesty will interfere, to obstruct the advancement of an art, which experience has proved to be of so great importance. Nor am I convinced, that the attendance of gentlemen upon women in child-bed, has, in any degree, a tendency to deprive them of those delicacies which add such charms to the female character. Can our author adduce any instance where such attendance has produced this effect?—If it has, the pernicious tendency which he endeavors to prove, is not surprising that it should have remained so long undiscovered?—An art which has stood the test of ages, and which experience has evinced the utility and necessity of, I presume will not be abolished, because the disordered fancy of an individual, apprehends that evils may result from it. In Europe, it has become almost an universal custom to employ physicians; and it is considered as a fortunate circumstance, that the practice has fallen into the hands of those who are capable of administering every necessary relief.—And must we then conclude, that delicacy, sensibility, and unaffected modesty, are no longer conspicuous in the European female? No. The entertaining such full possessor of these amiable qualities, although men have access to their chambers, at a time, when an old man would give admission to old women only.—It is true, that the business we are now considering, is the work of nature; and in the greatest number of instances, she is able to perform her work. But, as cases do occur, where her efforts are too weak and insufficient, and that assistance is required which alone can save one, who is already, and another who may hereafter become an ornament to society; let us not discourage a practice which can obviate such danger. It is observed, that to preserve their own reputation, as well as from motives of humanity, midwives will, when they discover danger, call out for aid. But it is now, perhaps too late; the repeated unavailing efforts of the women, has so far exhausted her strength, that she has not sufficient remaining, to support what may be found necessary to be done, and she sinks, a sacrifice to ignorant old women. Here, the employing of an experienced physician from the beginning, by knowing how far nature may be trusted, would have prevented the misfortune.—And no one can tell previously, what is eventually to happen. A case, which at the commencement, proceeds with every favorable prospect of a happy termination, may, and not unoften does, require immediately the utmost skill to give relief; and when midwives are employed before that can be obtained, all assistance comes too late. If these are facts, and no one I believe will assert the contrary, the inference deducible from them, is evidently this, that in all cases, where there is a possibility of danger arising, those should be employed who are capable of giving assistance in every situation. I am afraid the discourse of Senex, was studied with a view, rather to promote the interest of a few particular characters, than the welfare of those, to whom it is immediately addressed. And I am sorry to add, that he has not displayed that knowledge, which we had a right to expect from one at so advanced a period of life. But while I contend for the utility of a practice, which my adversary attempts to disprove the necessity of, I applaud in the highest terms, the odium so derisively cast upon many who practice medicine in this city. And it is to be lamented that those, who have the power, do not banish from among us, such ignorant pretenders.
October 9.
B E R L I N, July 26.
On the 23d we received a courier from Peterf- burgh, with the important news that the king of Sweden began hostilities against the Russians as soon as he arrived in Finland, having taken the fortress of Nyklof, and made the garrison pri- soners of war; after which he proceeded to be- siege the fortress of Frederiksham. These ac- counts created such an alarm at Peterf- burgh, that the court and many other principal people were preparing to go to Moscow.
On the 23th a Russian courier brought us the DECLARATION of WAR of the empress against the king of Sweden.
F R A N K F O R T, July 27.
By some late accounts we learn, that the treaty between Russia and Prussia, by which the king paid an annual sum of money to Russia, in lieu of 30,000 auxiliary troops, expired on the 1st of this month. The court of Russia would willingly have renewed that treaty, but the king declined it.
L O N D O N, August 13.
Letters from Algiers inform us, that the Dey has put the French captives in irons, and stopped all their subsistence that was in that port. We
are likewise informed, that all the ships that were armed at Toulon were ordered to sail and block up the Bay of Algiers.
Important News from Brabant.
The 4th instant, the day fixed for shutting the Seminary, the people assembled on the Grand Place, and on the quay: the troops were under arms, the cannon were charged, and every precaution being taken to enforce obedience to the emperor's or- ders, and prevent an insurrection, the mob were desired to disperse, but, as they were undaunted, and had committed no violence, but were simple spectators, they did not imagine that coercive mea- sures would be taken to drive them away, and continued, after repeated admonitions, to look on, until an officer of grenadiers, pretending to have felt a stone graze his hat, gave orders to fire; and the whole division, consisting of 400 men, dis- charged their muskets on the unoffending populace. Nine were killed on the spot, eight have died of their wounds, and eight were carried to the ho- spital; thirty of whom cannot recover. Among those that fell were two foreigners, accidentally crossing at the unhappy moment. A woman, and a child in her arms, were both killed, as she was serving behind her counter.—The mob immedi- ately dispersed; but measures so sanguinary and wantonly, can only tend to alienate the affections of the few remaining loyalties.
This melancholy scene, it is said, would never have happened, perhaps, but for the intrigues of the monks and priests under the direction of the bishop of Antwerp, and the cardinal archbishop of Mechlin; the excessive influence of these mixed fanatics, joined to the indefatigable industry of the inferior priesthood, and mendacious friars, success- ed so far as to occasion the people to assemble, and animated by religious zeal, they might have pro- ceeded to violence; if the military had not, as they did, imposed upon them, by firing the instant they refused to disperse.
The bishop of Antwerp is under an arrest; a guard is stationed at his house, in which he remains confined.
The archbishop of Mechlin was to have given his benediction to an abbess, on Sunday the 3d inst. but he received a peremptory command from the government of Bruxelles, to proceed immediate- ly to Mechlin, and to remain there until further orders.
We are informed by a gentleman who left Bru- xelles on Friday noon, the 8th inst. and who travel- led post, that on the night before, at half past ten, the house of the celebrated Vandermeul, the principal of the patriots in Brabant, and the avow- ed enemy to despotism, was invaded by 400 soldiers; every avenue was also secured; and on the door not being opened on the first summons, it was instantly hewn down and entered by force. Every search was made, but in vain: two minutes no- tice had enabled him to make his escape by the gutters on the top of his house; and he happily got out of the reach of his enemies before they had broken open his doors. Patrols were estab- lished in every part of the town, the whole garri- son was under arms, and a strong detachment of cavalry, and a coach and four attended to convey Moul. Vandermeul to the citadel at Antwerp, had he unfortunately fallen into the hands of govern- ment. Every coach that passed was narrowly ex- amined. The people whom the noise had assem- bled, were forbid to approach the house of the ad- vocate; and the whole town was in the greatest consternation when the gentleman who has fa- vored us with the above intelligence left Bru- xelles.
An attempt was made to seize others in the same time, but proved equally abort- ive; and others were also dispatched to Louvain, Mechlin, and Antwerp, to seize, at midnight, se- veral suspected persons.
Prince Lichtenstein has quitted the Army, in consequence of a severe fit of illness, and has re- turned to Vienna for the benefit of his health.
The victory of the Russians over the Turks is not so complete as they are reported; but all the officers, among the number Paul Jones, have been decorated with orders, and each man has had a rouble given to him.
By a private letter lately received from France, and which may be depended upon, it appears, that the French monarch has, within these few days abated considerably of his rigour against the discon- tented part of his subjects; the Bastille is continu- ally opening its gates for the egress of its inhabi- tants. The four principal persons who were lib- erated on condition of not coming within a certain distance of the royal residence, are freed from that restraint. Mr. de Bertie, a staunch friend of the Bretons, after having a conference with the min- ister, set off for Grenoble.—Messrs. Ivie, Caligny, and Veltres, who particularly distinguished them- selves in the late disturbances on the popular side, are gone off in a similar manner, to Toulouse, Lorraine, &c. However, notwithstanding this general pacific appearance, so far from any order to break up the camps having been issued, that that in Lorraine, has been augmented the 17th ult. with 4900 men; the camp in Picardy consists of 18,000 men; the two camps in Brittany are to- gether full 31,000; the largest body (17,500) being in the neighbourhood of Brest. But what makes the greatest subject for conversation now in Paris, is, that those new adopted measures of his majesty followed immediately after the arrival of two messengers from the emperor and Denmark: whet- her they were the consequences of those dispatch- es we shall not pretend to say, though we might perhaps with some truth say they were.
—August 15—
It was on Wednesday night reported, that it was the resolution of the British cabinet to send a Bri- tish fleet into the Baltic immediately; and that this resolution had been taken at the request of the king of Prussia; and that Sir James Harris was come here to settle some conditions respect- ing the number of ships to be sent, and the number of Prussian troops which are assembling in Polish Prussia.
A letter from the Hague dated July 31, says,— “According to the most authentic accounts, there has been another land engagement between the Swedes and Russians in Finland, which was very bloody, and terminated in favor of the Swedes. The Russians are, however, reinforced, and the Swedish troops may be made to fly in their turn. The king, Gustavus, is at the head of his forces, assisted by his brother the duke of Ostergoth, and many officers of rank. The duke of Sudermania commands at sea. Thus the king and his brothers engross the chief commands.”

NEW-YORK, Oct. 10.
On Monday last the Quarterly Examination was held at ERASMUS HALL, in presence of a committee of the Regents of the University, his Excellency Governor Livingston, and several learned gentlemen from New- York, who expressed great satisfaction with the progress of the young gentlemen.
The Trustees intended to have given a premium to the best scholar in each class: but the regents were of opinion that there were so many in every class so near- ly alike, that a premium could not in justice be given to any one of them in preference to the rest.
A vacation of three weeks then commenced, at the expiration of which, the Hall will be again opened, viz. on Monday the 27th inst.
On Saturday last, the honorable the General As- sembly of Pennsylvania adjourned sine die.
Yesterday was launched a handsome ship, called the Olive Branch, built by Mr. James Dwyer, for Messrs. George Barnewall and Co. of this city;—it is said this vessel is intended for the HILL trade.

Resolved, Whereas it appears to the members of this convention, that the United States in Con- gress assembled have for the present declined to ratify the compact entered into between the leg- islature of Virginia and the people of this district, respecting the erection of the district into an inde- pendent state; in consequence of which the pow- ers vested in this convention are dissolved, and whatever order or resolution they pass cannot be considered as having any legal force or oblig- ation; but being anxious for the safety and pro- sperity of ourselves and constituents, do earnest- ly recommend to the good people inhabiting the several counties within the district each to e- lect five representatives on the times of holding their courts in the month of October next, to meet at Danville on the first Monday in Novem- ber following, to continue in office until the first day of January, 1790, and that they delegate to their said representatives, full powers to take such measures for obtaining admission of the district as a separate and independent member of the United States of America, and the navigation of the river Mississippi, as may appear most conducive, to those important purposes: and also to form a constitu- tion of government for the district, and organize the same when they shall judge it necessary, or to do and accomplish whatever on a consideration of the state of the district may in their opinion pro- mote its interests.
Resolved, That the elections directed by the pre- ceding resolution be held at the court-house of each county, and continued from day to day, for five days, including the first day.
Resolved, That the sheriffs within the respective counties of this district be requested to hold the said elections, and make return thereof to the clerk of the supreme court immediately after the same are finished, and also deliver to each repre- sentative so elected, a certificate of his election; and in case there should be no sheriff in either of the said counties, or he should refuse to act, that any two acting magistrates then present may su- perintend and conduct the said elections, and make returns and grant certificates in the same manner the sheriffs are requested to do.
Resolved, That every free male inhabitant of each county within the said district has a right to vote at the said elections within their respective counties.
Resolved, That a majority of the members so elected be a quorum to proceed to business.
Resolved, That if the said convention should not make a house on the said first Monday in No- vember, any three or more members then assem- bled may adjourn from day to day for five days next ensuing, and if a convention should not then be formed at the end of the fifth day, that they may then adjourn to any day they think proper, not exceeding one month.
Resolved, That the sheriff of each county, or the said magistrates, as the case may be, read, or cause to be read, the aforesaid resolutions on each day immediately preceding the opening of the said elections.
Ordered, That the president do request the prin- ter of the Kentucky Gazette to publish the pro- ceedings and resolves of Congress by him laid be- fore this convention, also such of the proceedings of this convention as the president shall think pro- per, and in particular that the printer continue to publish weekly until the first of October next, the recommendation for electing another convention, and the several resolutions relative thereto.

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 pre- serving the bottoms of vessels from the worms, and in keeping them clean, has been proved by repeated experiments. It has also been 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 Bri- tish 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 paved 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 after- wards 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 grubs 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 paved 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 just as fresh as when put down.
From the above experiment we are fully of opinion that the Coal Tar will preserve the bot- tom of ships from barnacles and the worms, and is worthy of the greatest encouragement. Signed) John Murray, Thomas Sanders, Andrew Van Tuyl, Stephen Croafeld, John Thompson, Wm. Rhinlander.
