SPRINGFIELD, June 13. We learn from Greenville, that a number of buildings were unroofed, others much damaged, and one barn almost new, belonging to Lt. David Davis, entirely thrown down, by a violent Hurricane in the afternoon of the 10th inst. Some fruit trees were torn up by the roots, other trees of considerable size broken and twisted off, and much grain levelled with the ground. A large part of the roof of one barn was carried over a dwelling house to a considerable distance into a neighboring meadow and dashed entirely to pieces. Happily no lives were lost, nor any person hurt. The Hurricane took such a direction, that the more thickly inhabited part of the town were out of its course. The height of the gale continued but for a short time; otherwise, in all probability, very distressing and destructive consequences would have ensued.
NEWPORT, June 19. History of the Proceedings of the second Session of the Honorable General Assembly of this State, in the third year of our present administration. Published by Peter Edes, without bribe, fee or expectancy of office.
THE LAST QUARTER part of State Notes consolidated to specie value, and orders upon the interest arising thereon, is to be forfeited if the holders of them do not apply within one month from the sitting of the Assembly and receive the paper emission at its nominal value. Those who have received the first or second quarter, are indulged in receiving the third and last quarter, provided they apply within the time above described.
THE RECEIVERS of public monies, who are delinquent in payments, are ordered to pay the balances in their hands to the General Treasurer within one month, or on failure thereof actions are to be commenced against them at a special Court.
THE JUSTICES of the Superior and Inferior Court, who have received monies by KNOW YE's for private debts, which have become forfeit to the State, are ordered to pay the same to the General Treasurer within one month, and to lay their accounts before the next session of Assembly. From the account of one of the Justices it appeared there was a large balance in his hand, exclusive of an exorbitant commission.
On application from the Delegates to Congress, a further grant was made in their favor.
THE GUNNER of the Fort having deputed and placed there a person who was proscribed as an enemy and banished the State, a motion was made for his removal. The House in general reproached the conduct, but passed no vote, taking his word that he would remove from there and relinquish his employment.
Upon an order for the publication of an Act in the news papers, the Newport Herald was excepted with great temper and warmth.
A Bill was drafted for consolidating four per cent. notes to specie value, and paying them in the paper emission at the nominal value, but was referred to next session.
The wants of the INVALIDS obliged them to assail the House again for their stipends. Their mutilated trunks and marks of penury and distress wounded sensibility in its tenderest parts, and would have excited sympathetic feelings in the Savage, that it was natural to suppose there would require no eloquence to enforce their claims, especially when superadded to this, we find their allowance was by virtue of an act of Congress, and was to be paid by each State where these unhappy objects belonged, merely for their convenience, and the amount is to be credited the State in the Continental account; it therefore increased our astonishment that there should be an opponent: their demands however met with much difficulty in the course of their session; to pay them the real value of their stipend seemed dilatory to the major voice; to pay them in paper at its nominal value was not only repugnant to justice, but humanity: To obviate this, a motion was made by Mr. Jellin, and seconded by Mr. Cumpstock, (both leading members in the majority) to pay their balances in INDENTS, under the idea that it was a currency of the United States: If it was depreciated (say they) let the continent make it good to them. The motion was highly condemned by the minority as introducing a speculation of the basest kind, not only upon the credit of the United States, but upon the unhappy sufferers; besides, if the speculation was just, would Congress allow us the charge in specie, when we paid Indents that cost but 2/6 in the £. to the Invalids at their nominal value. A vote was however insisted upon and taken, but to the honor of the House the motion was negatived. A motion was then made to make grants of certain stipulated sums in the paper emission on Account, which passed in the affirmative. These grants are about three times the nominal sum that was due.
A tax of 30,000£. was levied agreeably to the apportionment, payable the first of December.
The sum of 50,000 dollars in Indents of the United States are ordered to be purchased by the General Treasurer, with the paper emission.
The officers and waiters were paid their fees, at the rate of six for one, without hesitation.
Upon the question of Adjournment a leading member who had been violently opposed against the New Constitution, urged a short adjournment, as it was probable we should be called upon in regard to the New Constitution: to obviate this reason, it was moved that a Convention should be now appointed to meet at some distant period, but the motion was not noticed.
BOSTON, June 23. On Thursday last the Legislature appointed Leonard Jarvis, Esq. Comptroller General of this State.
Last Friday evening, his Excellency the Governor, agreeably to the request of the Legislature, prorogued that Hon. Body to the first Wednesday in September next, after giving his assent to 20 Acts.
On Wednesday last, arrived here, the Brig Hannah, Capt. Smith, in 32 days from Dublin, having completed his voyage to and from Ireland in 72 days.
Yesterday arrived here Capt. Lee in 27 days from London; he has bro't Papers to the 16th of May, which contain very little news.
NEW LONDON, June 13. On Saturday last, about 3 o'clock afternoon, the dwelling-house of Elder Eleazer Brown, of the North Parish in Stonington, was struck by lightning, and his son about 25 years old, and daughter about 18, were instantly killed. The young man was in the chamber at the west end of the house, putting a board up to the window to keep out the rain, and the daughter was shutting down a window below at the same end of the house. The lightning struck the gable-end, ran to a plate on the north side of house, and went down a post into the ground. In its way it took two different directions, and broke a rafter and a joint. Several other people were in the house, who received no damage.
The same day four cattle were killed in Montville, belonging to the Hon. William Hillhouse, Esq.
NEW BERN, June 12. Extract of a letter from a gentleman in Greenville to his friend in this town dated June 1, 1788. Mr. Ambrose Jones is arrived here in eighteen days from Nashville, via Kentucky. The election in the counties of Davidson and Sumner, for Deputies to the Convention, was much contested; in the former there were fifteen candidates. The majority of the elected in both places are federalists. I am happy to learn by him, that notwithstanding "the daily murders and robberies committed at almost every point of the frontiers of Kentucky," the people of Cumberland are in perfect quiet.
"The damages sustained by the Kentuckians, and on the Ohio, have been done by the Northern Indians, who never penetrate as far to the Southward as Cumberland; and the Southern Indians are in peace, except the Creeks, who are very distant from the Cumberland settlers; and it is said Mr. McGilvray is friendly disposed to them, having no cause to be otherwise. Of that valuable article cotton, an abundance was raised last year in Davidson and Sumner, where it grows to as great perfection as in the West-Indies, and sold to the Kentuckians at half a dollar per pound. In Kentucky, from its northern situation, little or none can be raised, being three degrees at least more to the north."
PHILADELPHIA, June 25. Should every inhabitant of the United States wear as much more of the manufactures of our country, than he used to do, as would amount to only twenty shillings a year, it would save three millions of pounds yearly to our country. A few pairs of cotton or thread stockings, or of worsted shoes, or a single coat, or a few cotton waistcoats, would make up this trifling saving to each individual. The aggregate sum would in a few years render America one of the richest countries in the world. It would build many hundred ships and houses, establish and promote many useful manufactures, and clear and improve many thousand plantations, every year.
If, added to this saving in the articles that have been enumerated, every person whose business was to ride on horseback, together with all the boys between five and fourteen years of age, and all the servants in the United States, wore LEATHER BREECHES, manufactured in America, a sum not much less than a million per year would be retained in our country.
The members of different parties, in foreign countries, have occasionally been distinguished by different or peculiar dresses. Suppose similar distinctions should be made between the federal and anti-federal citizens of America. Let American made hats, shoes, buttons, breeches, stockings, &c. be worn by the FEDERALISTS. Let every thing that is eaten or drunk, or used in diet and furniture, that is made in America, be called FEDERAL. And further, let justice and patriotism be called FEDERAL virtues, and gold and silver FEDERAL money. By these means we shall incorporate our federal government in every idea of the mind, and blend it with every noble feeling of the heart.
The manufactures of America, says a correspondent, certainly deserve serious attention. No man can doubt the propriety, and even the duty, of using such articles as can be made here as low as they can be imported. Since the introduction of the carding and spinning machines, it is found that jeans can be made so as to underbid those imported from England, with the unavoidable charges of importation. Every public-spirited man may be supplied with this article at THE FACTORY, where the sale is very rapid, and purchases have been made by every description of the citizens of Pennsylvania, by the citizens of the adjacent states, and by some foreigners of distinction. Another article, adds our correspondent, calls for the attention of the friends of American manufactures, and of every frugal man—thread, cotton and worsted hosiery. Several gentlemen have made a careful and impartial examination of the stockings manufactured in this city, in Germantown, in the town and county of Lancaster, Bethlehem, and Reading, and they find that the thread stockings made in Pennsylvania, and sold generally at a dollar per pair, are of the same fineness with imported stockings which are sold at 8/4 and 8/6. They also find that mixed stockings of thread and cotton, made in Pennsylvania, are sold lower in proportion compared with those of Great-Britain. Besides this difference in price, it is a well known fact that three pair of Pennsylvania made stockings will wear longer than four pair of those imported. There are now about 250 stocking looms in the different parts of the city and state, each of which makes, on a medium, one pair and a half of stockings every day. These, deducting Sundays, will amount to 117,375 pair per annum, which, at 7/6 a pair, is £44,015 12 6. The increase of wool and flax, the reduction of labor, provisions and rents, the cultivation of cotton in the southern states, and, above all, the use of machines to card, spin and twist cotton thread, will greatly promote this article, of which, at two pair to each person annually, the United States require a yearly supply of near six millions of pairs—a capital domestic demand, certain, and steadily increasing with our population. The charges of importing hosiery, under the general import of five per cent. will be twenty-three per cent. exclusive of any profit to the importer or retailer. Should the adoption of the Constitution tempt any, either Americans or foreigners, to pull manufactures here, this branch promises great profit, and will no doubt be among the first that will engage their attention.
NEW-YORK, June 28. Extract of a letter from a Gentleman at Poughkeepsie, dated 21st June, 1788.
"On Sunday, about three o'clock, I arrived at Poughkeepsie, where I was friendly received by Federal men, and very particular attention paid me by the Chancellor. To-day, at the usual hour, the Convention was opened by a person whose name I know not. The point which claimed the attention of the day, respected the number of Representatives. The argument was brought on by Richard Harrison, who spoke with modest diffidence, commanding respect and deserved attention—he was on the floor about twenty-five minutes. He was followed by John Lansing, who was miserably wretched and deformed in every public feature. After him arose the Chancellor, who spoke charmingly indeed. He let his fancy rove unchecked, and such bold and figurative language I before had never heard. The house was perfect silence—the eyes and mouths of every man were fixed and open—and his eloquence, like a river which had been abridged for a time, burst forth irresistibly. When he first rose his eyes bespoke passion, his countenance indicated an injury received, and it required no great sagacity to pronounce him a speaker in quest of revenge."
"The day before my arrival, it seems that Mr. Melancthon Smith had taken some very improper liberties with the Chancellor;—such as pointing at his means, which were devoted to luxury; his avarice towards the poor; his extensive property; his great ambition:—subjects introduced to win the popular affections, and to create the most violent
popular prejudices. In speaking of poverty and riches, the Chancellor was fantastically eloquent, and feelingly descriptive; in remarking on his prosperity, he was delicately pleasing; but in speaking of his ambition, the greatness of his mind and the virtues of his soul shone brilliantly splendid, and even his enemies, who would fain be blind to his talents, could not but view his virtues with envy and admiration. Mr. Smith had hinted that the Chancellor willed an aristocratic form of government. Smith pointed out the abilities necessary to the form of an aristocracy, and, in a great measure, discovered his ignorance of the plan of such a government. He having committed himself in this way, the Chancellor took him by the hand; and if ever a man was ridiculously introduced into a public assembly, he was. The Chancellor embraced him about twenty minutes; during which contact the prayer of the House was, that the Lord should have mercy on his feelings!—When he took his leave of him he compared him, as a politician, to an airy phantom who had only a local habitation."
"After the Chancellor had concluded, Mr. Jay arose, commanding great respect and remarkable attention; he was heard with great pleasure and satisfaction; and, no doubt, he spoke convincingly on the points raised. He has the most peculiar knack of expressing himself I ever heard. Fancy, passion, and in short every thing that marks an orator, he is a stranger to; and yet none who hear but are pleased with him, and captivated beyond expression. He appears to me not to speak as a scribe, but as a man having a right to speak, and at the same time having authority to command them to obey:—he was up about fifteen minutes."
"We understand that the paragraph debated to-day was one of the favorite Antifederal points; but if their other objections are not more formidable than the ones they have raised, we shall carry the Government unquestionably—because I am satisfied that all sides to-day were abundantly convinced of the wisdom of the paragraph debated. The Governor nor any other gentlemen have not yet spoken."
"The people of the State of New-Hampshire have, by a majority of votes, made choice of the Hon. JOHN LANGDON, Esq. as President of that State the ensuing year."
A late London paper says, "Letters from Calcutta mention an instance of Asiatic luxury and splendid gratification barely to be conceived in this country, where those propensities have already made sufficient advances. It is of a masquerade that was given about two miles from Calcutta. A covered pavilion was erected all along the road, and superbly illuminated. The lights alone cost twenty thousand pounds. Five hundred was the number of persons assembled in masks, and of these only three appeared in dominoes."
At Berlin, a soldier's wife has lately added what may go under the extraordinary instances in the natural history of the human species—she has been lately delivered of three infants at a birth. In December of the year 1786, she had three children born of her. In the end of the year 1784, she had two children at a birth!

The following scheme was printed in London, at a time when a Bill was under consideration to prevent Clandestine Marriages. They were intended as salutary clauses to be added to the Bill in order to prevent Unhappy Marriages; and the penalties to be inflicted on the delinquents were as follows:
"WHEN two young thoughtless fools, having no visible way to maintain themselves, nor any thing to begin the world with, yet resolve to marry and to be miserable, let it be deemed petit larceny —If a younger brother marry to an old woman, purely for a maintenance, let it be called se defendendo —When a rich old fellow marries a young girl in her bloom, I would have it made felony without benefit of clergy —When two old creatures, that can hardly hear one another—but haugh and cough night and day, and can propose not the least comfort to themselves, yet will marry to be more miserable, let them be deemed non compos , and sent to a mad-house—When a lady marries her coachman, and a gentleman his cook-maid (especially if there be children by a former marriage) let them both be transported for 14 years. When a man has had one devil of a wife and has buried her, and yet will marry a second, let him be brought in felo de se , and buried in the highway accordingly. When a woman in good circumstances marries a town rake, not worth a groat; if she is betrayed into it, let it be called accidental death ; but if she knew it, make simple felony , and hang her in the fift. When a man with no children marries a woman with five or six, and vice versa , let the delinquent stand thrice on the pillory , lose both his ears, and suffer one year's imprisonment. If a man marries a woman of ill fame, knowing her to be so, let him have a pair of horns painted on his door, in perpetuum rei memoriam ; and if she be a known scold, then a couple of neat's tongues, as an additional ornament to the street door. And when a man or woman marry to the disinheritance of their children, let them suffer as in cases of high treason . When a woman marries a man deeply in debt, knowing him to be so, let her be sent to the house of correction , and kept to hard labor for three months; and if he deceives her, by not letting her know his circumstances, let her be acquitted, and he be doomed to beat hemp all the days of his life."
REFLECTIONS.
I HAVE just come from viewing the effects of a bankrupt which are now upon sale; one who has not been in business above two years. The particular business was like almost all business to a young man, of a very precarious nature, requiring strict economy, and rigid attention. The furniture was of a most elegant kind, and all new; much plate, and of the most superfluous kind, but being also new of course cost the owner twice as much as he can sell it for now; elegant prints, pictures, and every article of luxury, some or all of which may become the man who is retiring from business with an ample fortune, but for one entering into life, what was it short of madness to have laid out money for such unnecessary though fashionable furniture?
Most men read the advertisements of auctioneers with the utmost indifference, and consider only whether there is any article they want, thinking no further of the matter. To me, to read those advertisements, it suggests a moral lesson of the highest importance. The auctioneer's hammer, like the stroke of death, shows the vanity of all super-
fluities; and every sale may be considered as a memento to those who have as yet escaped the mortifying state of bankruptcy. It seems to say, "let him that standeth, take heed lest he fall;" and viewing these advertisements in this light, I have often drawn observations and remarks from them which I think contribute to a moral purpose. If they do not show how we ought to live, they at least show what the unavoidable consequences of imprudence and extravagance are, when practiced by tradsmen, by young tradsmen, and by men who have families to support.
Choice wines is one very common article in sales. To be choice in one's wines, when we can afford to purchase them, is, no doubt, the greatest proof of wisdom, for who would not be so? But when the price of our wines exceed the profits of our trade, our choice will be of little avail at the long run. It is better to be choice in the election of our customers and friends; choice in the keeping of our books; and however valuable it may be to have old wine , let us take great care of old debts . The one ameliorates by keeping; the latter grows worse.

The Inhabitants of the City of
N E W - Y O R K
ARE respectfully informed, that the subscriber intends 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 satisfaction to those who may please to employ him, (distinguished by their becoming subscribers) as he is determined to join unremitted assiduity to the pain laid down in the following proposals, which he flatters himself will meet the approbation and encouragement 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, with foremen, to see the business performed.
2d. To allot each a proper district, in such manner, as that every subscriber's chimneys shall be regularly swept once every month, (or oftener if required) 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 office, unless the chimney be cracked, or the fire begin in some other part of the house.
4th. To render the establishment of general public 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, no 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.
