ESSAY on the Means of promoting FEDERAL SENTIMENTS in the United States. By a Foreign Spectator.
(Continued from No. 831.)
A well-ordered militia is the noble bul- wark of every free country. It has been conquered veteran troops: and when a war makes a temporary army necessary, it will easily be formed by those, who are not the dreg of a nation, nor soldiers of fortune; who have something more than mere military honour; who fight for liberty, property, families, for their native land, the idea of which involves all that is dear and sacred to the human heart. It is absolutely necessary to keep up an high military spirit in the American militia, and to render this military spirit federal. They must, in case of an invasion, often march to the defence of each other; and in times of civil tumults quell antifederal insurrections, not only at home, but in neighbouring states. A military spi- rit may in part be prompted by mechanical habits, and an high admiration of mere cou- rage; but it is then very dangerous—it will always drink blood; and if it cannot vent its fury on a foreign foe, will create war at home.—Bull dogs, that have for a long time wanted their prey, become mad; and as the sublime poet relates, he that to make his hor- se fierce, fed them with slain enemies, was at last devoured by them. That military ho- nor which so generally animates the officers of standing armies, whether they fight for their own country or for allies, is indeed very dazzling—this evening to dance at a ball together, and to-morrow to meet with drawn swords, as happens when parties en- camp near each other; or to compliment who shall give the first fire, when at least one must be killed or wounded by it, as was the case of the French and English at the battle of Dettingen—this is undoubtedly a mark of high civilized valor. Yet this honour is not sufficient for republics, because it regards war rather as a theatre of glory, than a trial of patriotic virtue, and values a Cæsar much more than a Fabius; though the great man by his prudent conduct stem- med the impetuosity of Hannibal: and the other to astonish the world by his talents, be- came its conqueror, and the master of his own country. Marshal Saxe, who gained the bat- tle of Fontenoy, though he was idolized by all France, yet languished for want of war, and died against his will on a bed.—Such a man will not be a suitable commander in re- publics. Here the military spirit should be formed on the most sublime and pathetic sentiments of religion, honor, humanity and patriotism. Genuine heroism, doing and suffering every thing in the cause of a dis- tressed country, has such inexpressible gran- deur and tenderness, as to animate every heart that can feel, and elevate noble minds to an enthusiasm, that almost wilhes for an awful trial.
A modern political writer of the first or- der, whose only fault is being too lofty and martial, regards a war in this light, as only an honorable way of going out of the world. I cannot in this agree with him; but I believe that a noble military spirit as it brings a just war to a speedy and happy issue, will also greatly compensate for its inevitable calamities, by the great senti- mental happiness it produces. To patriotic and solemn minds heroic tragedies are the finest entertainments, and extremely useful in republics, with history, epic poetry, and odes of the same spirit. Three thousand years have elapsed since the fatal ruin of Troy, still Andromache draws tears from crowded audiences: and her distress, her fidelity to the ashes of Hector, and maternal love of Astyanax, does yet form heroes and heroines—While the world remains, brave patriots will sigh over Hector, dragged at the wheels of a cruel foe, mangled and sleep- ed in blood, round the walls he had so long defended with a valiant arm; and will hear the sweetest music in these words of Vir- gil, that represent his ghost weeping over the conflagration of Troy:
In tomis ecce ante oculos mortissimus Hector. — — — — — lachros effundere fletus, Raptatus bigis, ut quondam, atque cincto Pulvere — — — — — — — — — — concretos sanguine crines, Vulneraq. illa gerens, qua circum plurima muros Accepti patrios — — — — —

L O N D O N, August 22.
Our letters, by the last mail, give no ac- count of any further hostilities having been committed in Holland by either party. They observe, that M. le Baron de Thulemeyer, the Prussian Envoy, holds frequent con- ferences with the Ministers of State, and with M. de Verac, Ambassador from the King of France. They speak no more of the march of Prussian troops, and flatter themselves, that the King of Prussia has countermanded the orders he had issued.
The city of Amsterdam, in consequence of
a provincial resolution of 1780, bearing a statute for preserving order in the assembly of the state, has demanded reparation in fa- vor of the Pensionary Van Berckel, who had been insulted in full assembly, by the Baron de Wassenaer Stakrenburg, Member of the Equestrian Order.
Letters from Lisbon mention, the arrival there of his Majesty's Ship Phæton, Captain Dawkins, from Gibraltar, and that the French Squadron of evolution, were still at anchor in the Tagus.
The French accounts confirm the victory gained by Tippoo Saib, over the Nabob of the Decan, who was the Ally of the Ma- rattas.
The place where the Parliament of Paris are exiled, is not Pontoise, as presumed from former custom, but Troyes, a trading but very unfashionable town, where the houses are mean, and for the most part built of wood.
If Mons. de Calonne has, in truth, taken refuge in a country, which was once the asy- lum of the oppressed, — it is hoped that he will not think himself secure in the smiles, cringes, or promises of Ministry.—Mons. de Calonne should know something of the cha- racter of courts, and of the ordinary fate of those who confide in them.
"In hearts of Kings, or arms of Queens who lay— How happy these to ruin, — those betray!
Let him throw himself upon the sentiments of a generous nation. When the attention and feelings of the public are once interested in his case, the slaves of power may, in one instance, be induced to pay some regard to the laws and constitution, as they were un- derstood by our ancestors.—He may be assured that, without the vigilance of the public eye, and the safeguard of the pub- lic opinion, the surrender of a Refugee Pre- mier, will cost little to those, who are hourly making the most ruinous sacrifices to the most favored of nations.
The Bed of Justice, held at Versailles, the 6th inst. lasted an hour and a half. The Parliament set off from Paris before eight in the morning, in forty five carriages, accom- panied by a detachment of the Short Robe. The Throne for the Bed of Justice was pre- pared in the Great Hall of the Body Guards. The King arrived there precisely at noon. Many persons of the Court and even ladies assisted at this grand assembly, when Royal Majesty displayed all his power.
In consequence of the approaching coali- tion of the Cabinets, for the arrangement of the Dutch affairs, the preparations at Brest have been stopped. One English merchant had only had four thousand pounds of stores bespoke and delivered, which it is supposed will be returned upon hand.
By the Dutch mails which arrived yester- day morning, we have received the follow- ing intelligence: —
Extract of a letter from Utrecht, Aug. 13.
"There is every appearance, at present, of a change of affairs, relating to the inten- tions of foreign powers towards the Repub- lic. It is just confirmed, that the King of Prussia has countermanded the march of his troops, by ordering them to remain where they are until further notice. This has been done, we cannot doubt, at the requi- sition of the Court of France, and is the first step to a happy reconciliation. We are not, indeed, certain if the issue will be such as all moderate men desire; that is, if the matter will end without the effusion of blood; but we are, at least, assured, that the Ministry of Berlin are not actua- ted by the impulse of mistaken rancor, and that the Court of France has preserved a strict atten- tion to their representations. England makes pacific advances also.
"It is, therefore, probable that these powers will not, hereafter, take an open part in the divisions which agitate the U- nited Provinces, nor send their fleets and ar- mies to invade their territories.
"The camp of the patriotic burgeses, situated near Woerden, is to be removed to a place not yet named, but most probably near Holland; where there is every reason to suspect some secret underhand operations. —The indulgence which the States have shewn to certain persons of all classes, known to be in the interest of the Stadt- holder, has only hardened them, and we are justly afraid of their intentions.
"Some articles of reconciliation have been published, which, it is pretended, were drawn up in concert with the Courts of France, England, and Berlin. They are in number six; we do not publish them, because it is very plain, that they are gross absurdities.—We need not prove this any farther, than by saying that they are all in favor of the Stadholder, and that the drift of them is to undo every thing the patriots have been doing, and again involve the Republic in all the miseries which they have endeavored to be freed from. It is more than probable, that these articles are the fabrication of the little Council held for some days past at Nimeguen, where are at present the Prince and Princess of Orange, the Duke of Brunswick, and Mr. Grenville. Envoy expressly from the Court of London." —Utrecht Gazette.
Died, on the 16th inst. in Ireland, the Right Hon. JOHN PONSONBY.
New-York, Oct. 24.
On the 3d inst. Congress resolved, that the salary of the Judges for the Western Territory, be severally eight hundred dol- lars per annum, to commence from the time of their beginning to execute the duties of their office.
A letter from a gentleman in Dumfries, in Virginia, to his friend in Richmond, da- ted Oct. 12, says, "Last night an attempt was made to burn the house in this town wherein the records and papers are deposit- ed, and the clerk's office kept. This was done by the breaking of a pane of glass, and introducing a coal of fire, which, after burning through the plank floor, between two of the sleepers, and leaving a hole a- bout six inches square, fell upon the floor of the cellar, and happily did no farther da- mage."
We are informed by a gentleman from Massachusetts, that Shays has prevailed up- on some of the officers of Government to for- feit his pardon, and there is reason to sup- pose it will be granted. This rebel, equal- ly defective in spirit and understanding, has shewn that it is in the power of the most contemptible of beings to disturb the peace of society; but we hope his fate will be a lesson to the factious heroes of Tioga and Green-Briar, in Pennsylvania, and convince their adherents, that honesty and industry are preferable to tumult and licentiousness.
We hear from Trenton, in New-Jersey, that on Thursday, the 11th inst. the fol- lowing gentlemen were elected Representa- tives in Council and General Assembly for the county of Hunterdon, for the ensuing year: — Council.

In the last will of Judge Burnet, is the following declaration: "I think it proper "in this solemn act to declare, that as I "have lived, so I trust I shall die, in the "true faith of Christ as taught in the Scrip- "tures; but not as taught or practiced in "any one visible church I know of, though "I think the church of England is as little "stuffed with the inventions of men as any "of them, and the church of Rome is so "full of them, as to have destroyed all that "is lovely in the Christian religion."
On the inside of St. Paul's Church, in this city, there has lately been erected a beauti- ful marble Monument; which, for plain- ness and elegance of workmanship, deserves much praise. On its base is the following inscription:
Beneath the Altar of this Church are depo- sited the Remains of Mrs. ELIZABETH FRANKLIN, Wife of His Excellency WILLIAM FRANK- LIN, Esq. late Governor, under his Britannic Majesty, of the Province of New-Jersey.
Compelled, by the adverse Circumstances of the Times, to part from the Husband she loved, and at length deprived of the soothing hope of his speedy return,
She sunk under accumulated distresses, and departed this life on the 28th day of July, 1778, in the 49th year of her age.
Sincerity and Sensibility, Politeness and Affability, Godliness and Charity, Were,
With SENSE refined, and PERSON elegant, In her UNITED.
From a grateful remembrance of her affec- tionate tenderness, and constant per- formance of all the duties of a GOOD WIFE,
This Monument is erected, 1787, By Him who knew her Worth, and still laments her Loss!
Extracts from The JOURNAL OF CONGRESS.
Friday, October 5.
On a report of the secretary for foreign affairs, to whom were referred two letters from the honorable John Adams, of the 24th and 27th of January last.
Resolved, That the honorable John A- dams, the minister plenipotentiary of the United States, at the court of London, be permitted, agreeably to his request, to re- turn to America at any time after the 24th day of February, in the year of our Lord 1788, and that his commission of minister plenipotentiary to their High Mightinesses do also then determine.
Resolved, That Congress entertain a high sense of the services which Mr. Adams has rendered to the United States, in the ex- ecution of the various important trusts which they have from time to time committed to him, and that the thanks of Congress be pre- sented to him for the patriotism, perse- verance, integrity and diligence, with which he has ably and faithfully served his coun- try.
On the report of a committee, consisting of Mr. Dane, Mr. Hawkins, Mr. Kean, Mr. Irwine, and Mr. Carrington, to whom were referred a report of the secretary at war, and sundry papers relative to Indian affairs in the northern department:
Resolved, That a general treaty be held with the tribes of Indians within the limits of the United States, inhabiting the coun- try north-west of the Ohio, and about Lake Erie, as soon after the first of April next as conveniently may be, and at such place, and at such particular time, as the governor of the western territory shall appoint, for the purposes of knowing the causes of uneasi- ness among the said tribes, and hearing their complaints; of regulating trade and amica- bly settling all affairs concerning lands and boundaries between them and the United States.
That the said governor of the western ter- ritory hold the said treaty agreeably to such instructions as shall be given him for that purpose.
For the Daily Advertiser.
Mr. PRINTER,
IT is melancholy and afflicting to all good men to hear of the number of important resignations talked of, should the New Con- stitution take place. It is to be hoped the City Drum-Major-General, established at Bridewell, and the honorable body of Lamp- Lighters, will not catch the infection, but continue to wield the whip, and shed their oil, boldly and generously, in the City's cause. They ought to reflect, that they are limbs of the City Sovereignty, equally independent of this State, and the United States; and, like faithful City Officers, jea- lously watch against the encroachments of State Sovereignty. It would be an excel- lent check and security against such at- tempts, should the Corporation form the streets of this City into so many free and in- dependent Street Sovereignties, with an Orator-General to each, who should have a handsome salary for alarming the People; and should he find their Liberties endan- gered, from any threatening prospect, either of diminution of power, or its entire loss to other great and good political luminaries, who, should they be displaced, "we ne'er shall look upon their like again," — it should be his business (when he apprehended such imminent danger to the State) to run thro' the streets, with all the good men in it at his heels; and cry Murder! Fire! Popery! Aristocracy!
I am for checks, Mr. Printer; I say I am for checks; and for fences, and hedges, and ditches, against the Aristocrats; that, if they leaped over one obstacle, they might fall foul of another. Let us have uni- formity in our State, and confusion amongst the rest. We are well situated amongst our neighbours. Peace at home, and war a- broad, was the true policy of Britain, in her better days.
Amongst other establishments, Congress are now making for the Western Territory, I hope they will provide for those who are about to leave us, on account of the new unconstitutional Constitution; and, amongst other offices, create that of Shaver General, for some worthy disgusted Patriot. As there is a little, ambitious Aristocrat, who has made a confounded noise lately, and given our side some very ugly pols, I hope the Officer aforesaid will officially introduce himself, and when he has got the people's grand enemy fairly by the nose, will dex- terously slit his little, accursed weapon, and then push to the woods; or Heaven knows what will in time become of all the good and wise men of the State!

Dr. RYAN's incomparable Worm destroying SUGAR PLUMBS, Highly necessary to be kept in all families. So exceedingly valued by all People who have had of them in Great-Britain and Ireland, for their transcendent excellency in the destroying Worms of all kinds, both in the bodies of men, women and children, by not only breaking the knots in the Du- odenum, or gut next the Stomach; but they pass through the smallest passages of the body, and purge away thoseropy and slimy humours which are the cause of those pernicious vermin, and the source of many other disorders. They are one of the best pur- ges in the whole world for gross-bodied children that are apt to breed worms, and have large bellies; their operation is mild, safe and pleasant; they wonderfully cleanse the bowels of all fluff and clam- my humours which stop up the parts, and prevent the juice of food from being conveyed to the liver and made blood, which is often the case with children, and is attended with a hard belly, thinking breath, frequent fevers, rickets, and a decay of strength, in the lower parts: Likewise settled aches and pains in the head, swellings, old sores, scabs, tetter, or breaking out, will be perfectly cured, and the blood and skin restored to its original purity and smooth- ness; they purge by urine, and bring away the gravel, and effectually cure all obstructions of the urine, or ulcers in the kidneys. They at once strike at the true cause of the curvy and entirely destroy it, and all scorbutic humours and effects, root and branch, so as never to return again; and what makes them more commendable is, they are full as agreeable to both taste and sight, as loaf sugar; and in their operation as innocent as new milk. I have by these plumbs cured a great many children of whooping or chin-coughs, and agues, which dis- tempers are very common and troublesome to fami- lies and the want of these plumbs are the ruin of many children's constitutions. These plumbs enrich and sweeten the whole mass of blood, carry off all gross, corrupt and putrid hu- mours, and create a fresh and healthy complexion in such as are affected in any putrid matter. The plumbs a great diuretick, cleansing the reins of flime it expels wind, and is a sovereign medicine in the cholick and griping of the Suts---It allays and carries off four vapours, which occasion many disorders in the head---It opens all obstruc- tions in the stomach, lungs, liver, reins and bladder, causes a good appetite, and helps digestion. It hath been found wonderfully successful to such persons as are going into chronicall distempers, as asthma, phthisicks, or shortness of breath, dropsies and yel- low jaundice.---Now I hope all impartial persons are satisfied that the medicine which works upon such humours, will almost reach any distemper, if not too far gone, since corruption and putrefaction are the fore-runnings of all diseases; therefore, no better physick can be taken for all ages, sexes and constituti- ons, from infancy to an old age. These plumbs are highly serviceable to the female sex, from the age of 14 to 20 years, and from 40 to 50. Each box contains one dozen of these plumbs,---Price Eight Shillings, with directions. SOLD BY H. GAIN, at his Book-Store and Printing-Office in Hanover-Square. Diagnostick Signs of Worms. PALENESS in the face, itching of the nose, hol- lowness of the eyes, gracing of the teeth when asleep, dullness, pains and heaviness in the head, a dry cough, itching in the fundament, white and thick urine, unquiet sleep, often flatting, lost appetite, swelled belly, knowing and biting about the stomach, frightful dreams, extreme thirst, the body decay- ed and lean, fits, often vomiting, flinking breath, &c.

In agues, the same quantity must be taken 2, 3, or 4 hours before the fit comes on, and be repeated 3 times. In whooping or chin-coughs, give the quantity above-mentioned. June 1, 1787. tf

New-York AIR FURNACE. PETER T. CURTENIUS and CO. have repaired the New-York Air Furnace, and have procured the best workmen, together with the ne- cessary apparatus to carry on the Manufactory of Cast Iron in the completest and best manner.
Castings made in an Air Furnace, are al- lowed by all who are acquainted with the nature of Foundries, to be better than what is made in a Blast Furnace; because, in an Air Furnace, the ware is made out of the softest and best Pig Metal, and, by its being melted a second time, the scoria, or dross, is expelled, and nothing but the pure Metal remains. In a Blast Furnace, the Castings are made out of the first melting of the crude Ore, and are more or less mixed with dross, which subjects the ware to be rough and spongy, and often full of cold shuts: the differ- ence, in short, is nearly the same as there is be- between refined and Bloomery Iron.---The ware they have made is allowed, by good judges, to be as light, as smooth, and as good as any imported from Europe. This consideration alone, of the ware being as good as the foreign, is a sufficient inducement, for an American, to give the preference to the manu- factures of his own country; but a more powerful ar- gument for the purchaser to give it a preference is, that it can be afforded cheaper than the imported ware, chiefly owing to a duty of six pounds per ton being laid on foreign castings. The ware manufactured at this Furnace, consists of the following articles, viz.
Pots and kettles of various sizes, from one to fifteen gallons, tea-kettles, pye-pans, skil- lets, griddles, potash kettles and coolers, whal- ing-kettles, boilers for tallow-chandlers and sugar- workers, stoves for sugar-bakers, mill-cases, cast bars for fu- gar-works and distilleries, rollers and shears for sit- ting-mills, chimney-backs, hearth and jamb plates, cast agreeable to any pattern that may be sent; close stoves for work-shops, Franklin stoves neatly deco- rated with carved work, Bath stove-grates elegantly ornamented with carvings, ship's caboules of the new construction, with bake ovens in them, in which the same fire that roasts and boils the meat, bakes the bread; mill rounds and gudgeons, saw-mill cranks, calceining plates for making pearlashes, cast iron screws for filling and paper-mills, fullers plates cast to any size that may be wanted, fish-veighs, forge- hammers and anvils, plow-plates, half-hundred- quarters, fourteen and seven pound weights; cars, waggon, coach, phaeton, chair and sulkey boxes, &c. &c. &c.
N. B. Persons who want any backs, or other ware, cast agreeable to particular patterns, will please to send their patterns and orders to the FURNACE, near Mr. Atlee's Brewery, or leave them at the house of PETER T. CURTENIUS, No. 48, Great Dock-street, near the Exchange. Oct. 15. 6w
