A S O N G:  To the tune of—“The Gods of the Greeks.”  Written by a Lady in Philadelphia, 4th July, 1783.  OLD TIME, looking over his wonderful page, On his feythe he was leaning to rest, And great revolutions would be in this age, And an empire arise in the West.  The year eighty-eight was the era then fixt, To settle the plan form'd by fate; When all ranks of men in friendship should mix, And from this day their consequence date.  View the glorious fight where thousands appear, Assembled with emblems to show Their Union is firm, their rejoicing sincere.— What nation then dare be our foe?  May our trade be reviv'd, and this federal band Be the root which shall order restore! Cries Time, “By this hour-glass I hold in my hand, “You shall flourish till I am no more.”
V A L A C H I A.  Counter Manifesto published by the hospodar of that Principality.  U S, Prince, &c. give notice to you Christians, Boyards; Officers, Civil and Military, and all the Inhabitants of this Principality; and we order you at the same time to obey and remain faithful to our powerful Emperor.  Remain firm to your duty, and do not suffer yourselves to be seduced into the snares that the Germans are spreading for you. The German resembles a leaf upon water: I say as much of the Russian. Russia has already attacked our Emperor. The war was not long, and our country cannot be taken from us. Germany wishes to do the same thing now.  The German Emperor disperses Manifestos against us. He would make us believe that he will come into this country; but he cannot: he has no other intention than to sow discord among us. Let him come, if he dares! Is not our Emperor formidable enough to defend himself against all the Emperors and Kings, should they attempt to attack him?—And I also! and I am powerful in men and horses, and God is also with me; for I am of the christian Religion, though not of the Religion of the Germans.  To arms, then, Christians! In the name of God, to arms! Seize the first who fall into your hands, and let us march against the Germans; for they only mean to surprise us, that they may pillage us, and fly as the Russians have done.  Do not you see that the same Sovereign reigns over us yet? Do not entertain the least distrust of our Emperor. Let him who is seduced by the Germans, and who distributes seditious libels, be excommunicated and cursed.  We order you to tear those writings that are against our Holy Religion. Whoever will seize and deliver up the publishers of those writings, shall receive 300 crowns: from a peasant he shall be honored by the rank of Boyard; and I myself will decorate him with the caftan. The Colporteur, on the contrary, shall be impaled alive upon the very place where he was seized. Remain faithful; obey our orders: it suffices at present that you only pay the established contributions; in future you shall be exempt from all taxes. To arms against Germany, that we may arrive time enough to conquer them. From the rest God protect you.
From the Massachusetts Centinel.  Mr. Russell,  I yesterday had the pleasure of perusing Major Otis's Oration—and am of opinion that the following concise statement of the advantages which our country enjoys, ought to be read by greater numbers than usually peruse the Oration.—It must be patriotic, to endeavor to convince our citizens of the blessings they enjoy over those of other countries. If you agree with me in sentiment, you will please to insert it in your paper.  Yours, A. B.
Extract from the Town ORATION.  “A PARTIAL sketch of the natural, accidental and moral advantages that will result to the confederated States, shall relieve your patience. For the first class, we are indebted to the variety of climate, soil and productions which render the wants and labor of one State subservient to those of another; to our remarkable exemption from pestilence, earthquakes, and the dreadful convulsions of nature; to the rivers which intersect our country—to the security of our harbors, and to the extent of our sea-coast, rendering the conquest of the thirteen States almost impossible. The accidental advantages consist in our remoteness from the cabals of Europe; in our convenient position relative to the West-Indies, and in the irability of these islands to flourish without our commerce—in the resources we possess for the discharge of our taxes—in the perfection and oppression of other countries—in the necessity of frugal and industrious habits, to which we are subject—in the sense of liberty bequeathed by our ancestors, and finally in our freedom from the dominion of nobles and hierarchs. Among moral circumstances may be computed, the toleration of religious sects; the respectability of the clergy—the encouragement of education—the liberty of the press—equality of property; conjugal
fidelity, and the jurisdiction remaining in the several States, whereby life, liberty and property will be secured.  Happy, happy, America! enriched by Heaven with its choicest blessings, may the wisdom of thy councils, and the virtue of thy sons, accelerate the peace, and happiness, and perfection of mankind.
L O N D O N, May 12.  Friday, the committee from the cotton manufacturers had an interview with the committee of the privy council, on the subject of their application for protection to their trade against the East-India monopoly. They complain that their manufacture, which employs an immense body of people, comprehends a large capital, and composes so great a part of the exports of this country, cannot stand in competition with the monopoly of the India Company, which, through the unwife favor of government, extends to every branch of the cotton trade. They desire only to divide the business, leaving it to the Company to make their option.—We trust that they will not be disappointed in a request so modest.  Mr. Burke, on Saturday morning presented the two papers moved for by Mr. Burgess, respecting the expense already incurred by carrying on the prosecution against Warren Hastings, Esq. and which, in a short compass, is as follows:—
  Expense of erecting the Court £. 3044 11 7   Furnishing the same, 714 3 6   Moneys advanced to the solicitors for the prosecution 4300 0 0   £. 8058 15 11 
D U B L I N, May 17.  It was imagined that this country would be little, if at all, affected by the late failures in a sister metropolis; we are sorry to have it in our power to announce, that some of our houses here, and in other parts of the kingdom, particularly in the northern trading towns, have felt a concussion, comparatively small, if rated by the English scale, but not inconsiderable for Ireland, when it amounts to 300,000.  We have the pleasure of hearing that a considerable demand for our iron and copper ware is likely to take place along the coast of the Mediterranean, and even as far as Venice, where some kitchen furniture brought to Leghorn, Genoa and certain parts of Spain, on account of Irish merchants settled in those places, has been so much admired by all the natives who have seen it, that orders will be soon given for importing a large quantity of that species of household stuff, which is not so well manufactured in Spain or Italy as with us. This advice comes from a great mercantile house at Malaga, who will probably be the first on the list of new customers in that branch of trade.
—MAY 23.—  The rents of the houses and lodging in this city have risen so enormously since the Police Tax commenced, that it is almost impossible for a tradesman to support his family without being in danger of the marshalsea, or of having his name enrolled in the bankrupt calendar; but were this tax converted to pay for the protection of the city, the people would not have such right to complain:—but to see the sweat of the industrious man's brow squandered on fine houses, carpeting, looking-glasses, gilt paper, pen-knives, and a long train of the most impudent charges that ever disgraced a public account, for the accommodation of men who despise the citizens, and laugh at their ruin, are circumstances which should be reprobated by every honest man, who has the least thoughts of an hereafter.
The iron hand of oppression still bears hard on the poor of this kingdom, whose poverty is now become a proverb with other nations; and from what source proceeds our misfortunes?—Why, from the unalienable domains of the Clergy; from the vexality and corruption of our Senate; from the prepossession of our nobility and gentry for foreign fashions, and lastly, from our cursed absenteeism, who drain the kingdom of its current specie, and rack their tenants with heavy rents, in order to enable those spurious nobility to squander the hard-earned substance of the poor man, in riot and debauchery in another kingdom.
The relief of the wretched Africans, who are carried as slaves to the British Isles in the West Indies, will be some measure be effected, at the beginning of the ensuing session. It is not, however, to be supposed, that this traffic in human flesh, will be discontinued, but that the planters will be made to treat them with more tenderness, or rather less cruelty, and persons fully empowered in the different islands, to take cognizance of such matters, and to punish the proprietors of plantations, who make use of wanton severity, either by fine or imprisonment, and declaring the negroes free from further servitude to the same masters; as also, after faithfully discharging their duties for a specified number of years, to be no longer slaves, nor that their children shall be the property of the planters, when able to work.
So, we find, that Mr. Hastings' trial cannot be concluded this session of the British parliament, but must be postponed to the next.—The real truth, however, is, “that he has too much money to be hanged?” for which he is enabled to retain several eminent lawyers, to bribe a number of evidences, and to corrupt some of the most leading members, even in the Upper House, there is no manner of danger or hazard to his person.
P E T E R S B U R G, July 24.  On Monday last, the Convention of the State of North-Carolina, met at Hillsborough. We learn, there is a considerable majority of the members of that Convention against the new government:—but the supporters of it have great hopes, since this state has acceded to it. Had Virginia rejected the government, it is agreed, that North-Carolina would certainly have followed her: but that state having South-Carolina on one side, and Virginia on the other, might, it is feared, place herself in a disagreeable situation, by rejecting the government altogether; it is therefore expected, that some mode of reconciliation will be concluded on, so as to render it more satisfactory to the opposition.
A L E X A N D R I A, July 24.  An unnatural murder was committed on the 12th inst. near Leesburg, on the body of a young man. It seems the youth had been a long time indisposed, and that the murderers was his own cruel mother, who perpetrated the act, by cutting his throat from ear to ear.
B A L T I M O R E, July 23.  In the late inundation, (announced in our last) Mr. James Mackintosh, unfortunately lost his life; in crossing a wharf overwhelmed with water, he was swept, by the force of the waves, into an adjacent dock, where he perished. This youth, scarce 20 years old, was a native of Scotland, and promised fair, by his application to business, and his uniform and amiable deportment, to become an ornament to society.
We have general accounts, from various quarters, of great damage having been done by the violent storm, on Thursday last. It is asserted that 40 sail of vessels, large and small, were, on that day, forced ashore at Norfolk.  E L I Z A B E T H T O W N, July 30.  The Legislature of this State are summoned to meet at Trenton, the 27th of August next, for the dispatch of such business as will then be laid before them.  Yesterday Aaron Doan, a veteran in iniquity, who to every sense of shame or contrition, appeared as callous as the adamant, was brought out of Newark goal for execution, attended by Dr. Macwhorter and Mr. Ogden. The former delivered in the meeting house a most affecting address; as also did Mr. Ogden at the gallows. The prisoner persevered in declaring his innocence, and exhibited a degree of indifference (notwithstanding he momentarily expected to experience the awful transition from life to death) as astonished
the numerous spectators. However, to the disappointment of many, he was reprieved under the gallows.
N E W B U R Y P O R T, (Massachusetts) July 23.  Last Wednesday, a melancholy occurrence happened at East-Kington. A man by the name of Morrill, who for some time past has been subject to fits of insanity, in a paroxysm of his disorder, attempted to kill his wife with an axe. His son, about 19 years of age, seeing his father in pursuit of his mother, ran to her assistance; but before he came up with them, he had aimed a blow at her head, which stunned her and she fell to the ground—the edge of the axe entered the side of her head, and produced a wound several inches in length, and nearly two inches deep. He turned to his son, and struck him a blow upon the head with an axe, which penetrated quite through the skull—Then dropping the axe, he seized them by the hair, and was knocking their heads violently one against the other, when some neighbors happily came to their relief.—They are both in a dangerous situation—but it is expected the woman will recover.
B O S T O N, July 28.  The following gentlemen came passengers in the Cato, Capt. Stevens, from France, viz. M. J. P. Brissot de Warville, Col. Terreaux, of the army, a Captain of Dragons, and several other French gentlemen; Mr. Nathaniel Barret, and Mr. Andrew Hall, of Medford.  Yesterday arrived the sloop Rosanna, Baxter Downes, master, in 26 days from Edenton, 12 from Edentown, and 12 from the bar. The second inst. spoke with Capt. Drew, belonging to this town, about 20 leagues below Edenton—The 17th spoke with a sloop belonging to this town, about three leagues from Cape Hatteras, bound to Cape Fear, 24 days out all well. Also, a ship from Ile Rhe, (France) Waltham, master.
N E W P O R T, July 21.  On Wednesday last, Mr. Philip Nafhey, stopping here on his passage from New-York to Providence, unexpectedly met with one of the crew named Anthony Atwood, belonging to the schooner Le Briton, John Viol, master, and the very man who was ordered into the boat by said Viol, when he forced Mr. Nafhey to leave his schooner at Porto Rico. Application was made to Christopher Ellery, Esq. Justice of Peace, who examined him, and he not only confirmed upon a solemn oath, the truth of the former publications by said Nafhey, in the several public papers; but likewise said, that said Viol intended to put Mr. Nafhey on shore on an uninhabited island, but was refused assistance by the crew; that he saw Mrs. Nafhey giving the money that was in the trunks to said Viol to purchase Lignum Vitae and cattle for a cargo to Cape Francois; that he often saw them in bed together after Mr. Nafhey was forced from the schooner; and that she in a very inhuman manner neglected her child by leaving it on board among the sailors and a negro wench.  This last, in particular, has been confirmed by gentlemen of veracity of this town, and Providence, who were at the Cape the same time, and that she passed for a widow, until she was discovered by Capt. Gramon, who offered her a passage to Providence, which she refused.

DIED, on Friday last, JOHN PIERCE, Esq. Pay-Master General and Commissioner for settling Army Accounts.
His fidelity, industry and disinterestedness, during thirteen years laborious service, procured him uniformly the confidence, favor and approbation of the Commanders under whom he served, and of Government. His generous and paternal care, his tenderness and uninterrupted kindness, endeared him beyond measure to a grateful and affectionate family. His candor, sincerity and philanthropy, secured him the friendship of every good man who had the happiness of his acquaintance.
A tradesman in Philadelphia complained two years ago to an iron merchant, that he could not pay his rent. The merchant asked him how much rum he used in his family in a day. Upon his answering this question, the merchant immediately shewed him that his rum in a year came to more money than his house-rent. The calculation so shocked the tradesman, that he determined from that day to buy and drink no more spirits of any kind. In the course of the ensuing year he paid his rent, and bought a suit of cloaths out of the savings of his temperance. He is now in a thriving way, respected and trusted by all who know him.
From a late London Paper.  Extract of a letter from the Carnatic , October 21.  “Tippoo has lately written a very insolent letter to our council, making some demands assigned over to him by the Mahrattas on the Tanjore country, and in case of refusal, he has threatened the Carnatic with another invasion. A very spirited answer has been sent him, and he has been told we are prepared for his reception come when he pleases. Every possible preparation is making at Madras for the army to get in readiness to take the field at the shortest notice. My last letters from that quarter, mention that another war appears inevitable. When it breaks out, I shall be ordered to join the cavalry with my detachment; I have therefore got every thing in readiness to march from hence at an hour's notice. Perhaps Tippoo is only endeavoring to frighten government, if possible, into a compliance with his demands; but he will find himself mistaken. A few weeks more must discover what his real intentions are.”
ANECDOTE OF CROMWELL.  Previous to the battle of Marston Moor, anno 1644, Lieutenant General Cromwell had sent out spies to reconnoitre the King's forces under the command of Prince Rupert. Not confiding in their report of the disposition of the enemy, and determined to gain personal information, unknown to any of his officers, he procured the habit of a farmer; with which having equipped himself, he mounted a cart horse, takes a circuit from the camp, and reconnoitres the King's forces from every convenient point of view; but being observed by some centinels, troopers were sent out to take him prisoner. On coming suddenly upon him, they accosted him roughly: Oliver, pretending deafness, asked with the greatest tranquillity, “For what purpose those brave men were armed?” On being informed that they were the King's, and the opposite troops belonged to the Parliament, “What!” says Oliver, “have they differed then?” The simplicity of the question excited laughter among the troopers, and Oliver was permitted to proceed to his camp without further molestation.
PHILOSOPHICAL FIRE.  Account of Mr. Diller's first exhibition of Philosophic Fire, from inflammable air, on Friday last, at the Lyceum.  The indefatigability and ingenuity of this philosopher has, by creating, in some measure, a new art, made an epoch in Natural Philosophy, by the invention of a species of phlogiston, destitute of smell or smoke, yet inflammable in the closest apartment, and incapable of detonation by coming in a contact with atmospheric air. The apparatus begins and is directed in a circular motion.
The flame communicates to a turning sun, to a large cross of match of white and red fire, a bar, four bouquets of yellow fire, five turning fans of different colors, four parafels of lilac flame, eight fans of two colors turning round eight grand bouquets, sometimes red and sometimes white; 16 fans of different colors turning round, which while they move rapidly round their own axis, revolve round another sun like planet, that acts as their centre. These 16 fans in their revolutions light up eight candles, each consisting of 18 flames, some white, some yellow. The next are eight grand flowers of yellow flame, which united with the former, compose altogether a very large volume of fire, consisting of 6000 flames of various colors.
This wonderful exhibition is conducted by means of a curious and complicated mechanism, a description of which follows: there are three chests, about four feet and a half long, three broad, 18 inches deep; each chest contains 12 bladders, which held the gas preparatory to the exhibition, of which gas there are three species, one to each chest; each bladder is armed with a pipe provided with a cock, which pipes, perforating the chests, open into a large horizontal pipe that encompasses the three chests. This main pipe that receives the 36 smaller pipes, and into it the operator, by turning the small cocks requisite, enlarges from the bladders such quantities of three several gases, and in such proportions as produce the figures and colors he wishes to exhibit. At the same time that the bladders are evacuating by another contrivance, the operator supplies them with fresh gas instead of that which evacuated in the exhibition.
The air thus conveyed into the main pipe ascends without inflammation to the mouths of the tubes that conduct it to the atmospheric air, where it immediately inflames, without smell, smoke, or detonation, producing all that we have attempted to describe above, and much more, beyond the possibility of description.
The bladders that serve as receivers for the gas are prepared with a particular varnish, that renders them impermeable to their volatile contents, and of long duration in use.
The three original colors from whence all these variations are produced, are red, blue and yellow.
