From the Poems of ROBERT BURNS, the celebrated Scottish Ploughman.
TO A LOUSE
ON SEEING ONE ON A LADY'S BONNET AT CHURCH
HA! where ye gaun, ye crawlin forlie! Your impudence protects you sairlie: I canna fay but ye frunt rarely Owre gauze and lace; Tho' faith I fear ye dine but spairlie On sic a place.
Ye ugly, crepin, blastit wonner, Detested, shun'd, by haunt an' sinner, How daur ye set your fit upon her, Sae fine a lady! Gae somewhere else and seek your dinner, On some poor body.
'Swith, in some beggar's basket squattle; There ye may creep, an' sprawl, an' sprattle Wi' ither kindred, jumping cattle, In fleas an' nations; Where horn nor bane ne'er daur unsettle Your thick plantations.
Now haud you there, ye're out o' sight, Below the fence-tels, sang and tight; Na faith ye yet! ye'll no be right Till ye've got on it, The vera tapmo' t'ow'ring height O' Miss's bonnet.
My sooth! right bauld ye set your nose out, As plump an' gray as any grozet: O for some rank mercurial rozet, Or fell, red fineddum, To gie you sic a hearty dose o't, Wad dres your dreddum.
I wad na been surpris'd to spy You on an old wife's flainen toy; Or aiblins some bit doddie boy, Or's wyliecoat; But Miss's fine Laverock! fie! How daur ye do't!
O, Jenny, dinna tois your head, An' set your beauties a' abreast! Te little ken what cursed speed The blithe's makin! Thae winks and finger-sins, I dread, Are notice takin!
O, wad some pow'r the giftie gie us To see oursel's as others see us! It wad frae monie a blunder free us An' foolish notion: What airs in dres an' gait wad leave us, And ev'n Devotion.
L O N D O N, April 3-12.
It is confidently asserted, that on the opening of the budget, which will be in a few days, Mr Pitt will appropriate half a million more from the surplus now in the Exchequer, towards the liquidation of the national debt. This, with the late sale of the dividend of Bank-Stock, may confound the enemies of this kingdom, by viewing our vast resources.
A Cabinet Council has been held upon the difficulties received from Spain, they not being at all satisfactory to this Court.
After the Cabinet on Monday, which was held in consequence of the evasive conduct of the Court of Madrid, respecting the large equipments going forward in the Mediterranean, a spirited remonstrance was dispatched to that Court; the substance of which is reported, that the British Court cannot see with indifference so powerful a preparation, and that unless an unequivocal and satisfactory answer is given, similar equipments will be made in the British ports without loss of time.
The Duke de Crillon has received orders from the Court of Madrid to repair immediately to Cadiz, for what purpose is not known; but as, notwithstanding his failure before Gibraltar, he is in high estimation as a General, we may presume that he is destined to some important service. Since his conquest of Port Mahon and Minorca, he is called by his Catholic Majesty's order, Duke de Crillon Mahon.
By a correspondent at Constantinople, on whose veracity we can, with much confidence rely, we are assured, that the event of the present war between the Porte and its Imperial enemies, is not likely to be so soon ascertained, nor of a nature so advantageous as the latter had flattered themselves:—That the Divan had published a manifesto, which was circulated through the Turkish Empire, its nominal dependencies, and every district where the Mahometan religion is professed, calling upon all true Mussulmen to arm in defence of their countries and religion, which were attacked by a race of infidels, who might justly be considered the enemies of both God and man; whose intentions were not only to spoil the dominions of the most Sublime Porte, but also, to subdue those of every true believer, and if possible, finally extinguish the whole Ottoman race; that the effect of this manifesto had been astonishing; the Mahometan Princes having unanimously determined to aid the Grand Signior with their whole force, the greater part of which is already in motion, and the remainder with the utmost expedition.
The above information is strongly corroborated by the recent conduct of the Emperor of Morocco, and the other Barbary Princes, who are using every exertion to fit out a fleet, which they openly avow is to act against that of Russia, should it enter the Mediterranean—and the truth of our intelligence is further strengthened by the arrival of several large bodies of Persian horse, who have joined the main body of the Turkish army.
A moving paper has the following intelligence. By a gentleman, just arrived from Leipzig, we are informed, that it was generally reported and believed, that a revolution had happened in Russia, and that the Empress was dethroned.
The Grand Duke of Russia, who was to have taken the command in Tartary, is not to leave Peterburgh at all, after every preparation had been made for his departure; the cause of this sudden change is not known. Count Alexis Orlow has declined the command of the fleet, and has recommended our countryman, Vice Admiral Greig.
Orders have been given by the French Minister of War, for the immediate formation of three camps, to consist of 20,000 men each. This is from Paris, and may be relied upon.
A Swiss has invented an instrument, which will discharge 300 balls in three minutes; it requires only ten men to work the machine.
The Duke of Brunswick has resigned all his military employments to the King of Prussia, and retired entirely from public life. What can have occasioned this sudden and extraordinary determination is not fully known. Many conjectures have arisen on the occasion, and none of them, perhaps, founded in truth.
Extract of a letter from Constantinople, March 3. The Venetian resident has not been at the meetings of the foreign ministers for some days
past, but has shut himself up in his own hotel. This is thought to look ominous, and as if that republic had a design to break with the Ottoman Porte. His sublime Highness will not, however, easily draw upon himself a new war; but if there should be any thing amiss, it may probably be settled by negotiation.
D U B L I N, March 5.
Letters from the interior parts of France, contain melancholy accounts of the misery of all concerned in husbandry, particularly in the cultivation of vineyards, occasioned by the wettest autumn ever known in that country; which in a great measure destroyed their produce, in addition to which natural catastrophe, the intolerable burden of accumulated taxes under the people labor, has rendered their situation truly deplorable. One of the letters adds, that the temporary expedients devised by their Ministry, have proved to be ineffectual, that if some great and decided measure for their relief is not speedily adopted, the year 1789 will be remarkable for as great an emigration from that kingdom as that which the revocation of the celebrated Edict of Nantz occasioned in the end of the last, and beginning of the present century.
Considerable exportations of linen, &c. for the American markets, from this port, took place in the course of last week.
B A L T I M O R E, May 30.
By accounts from Annapolis, we learn the Assembly have adjourned—a list of the laws has not yet come to hand, but we hear the turnpike bill for Baltimore County is not repealed, and the elections for said County are removed to the inn, commonly called the Burnt-House Tavern, nine miles from town. The insolvent law is repealed, and the old law of 1744 is renewed.
Extract of a letter from Annapolis, dated May 26, to the Printer.
"Yesterday the act for the relief of insolvent debtors was repealed—and an act passed for working criminals on the roads.—It is expected this law will be well received, as it will turn the vices of men to the advantage of the State."
R I C H M O N D, May 29.
On Saturday evening last, between the hours of 11 and 12 o'clock, some unknown villains entered the store of Messrs. J. and T. GILLIAT, by cutting a pannel out of one of the front windows, and robbed them of calicoes and linen, to the amount of fifty or sixty pounds. On the same evening, the store of Mr. Livingston was broke into, and his drawer rifled of a considerable quantity of cash.—The town of Alexandria having been, for some months past, infested with a band of robbers, it is highly probable that some of the same gang have paid a visit to Richmond, and there is a great probability that they were the perpetrators of both the robberies which happened in this city on the above-mentioned evening. It is therefore highly necessary that the citizens of all denominations should take warning from those two instances to be on their guard; and exert themselves to bring to justice such atrocious offenders to the community.
N E W - Y O R K, June 9.
By a letter from Muskington, dated the 17th ult. we learn that the persons sent hither by the Ohio Company, are proceeding with a spirit becoming the importance of the undertaking they are engaged in; that they were in high spirits—much pleased with the country—had completed the survey of the eight acre lots, and had prepared 100 acres of land, which they were then planting with corn: that many of the Delaware and Wyandot Indians had brought the produce of their winter's hunt to Fort Harmar this spring, and that there is not the least doubt but that all the Indians as far as Sandusky, will carry their skins and furs to the New City building at the confluence of the Ohio and Muskington, should the proposed treaty terminate to their satisfaction. Ginseng may be had there in any quantities requisite for the purposes of trade. The letter writer adds, that he is much pleased with the Ohio Company's purchase, and that the New City will be one of the most delightful situations in the world, and must unavoidably soon grow into a place of consequence.
On Friday evening arrived the brig Sandwich, Butler, in 19 days from St. Croix.
Same day cleared out at the Custom-house, the sloop Resolution, Reading, for Faya; and sloop Friendship, Bradley, for Newhaven.
Capt. White, who arrived at Newhaven a few days since, in 17 days from St. Croix, on the 20th ult. in lat. 39, long. 69, 30, spoke the ship Grace, from New-York bound for Amsterdam, all well.
On the 29th ult. arrived at Newhaven, Captain Francis Brown, from St. Croix. He was at sea only two Sundays, one on his outward passage, and one on his return.
O N P R O V I D E N C E.
THAT great prophet, Moses, it is said, was called up, by a voice from Heaven, to the top of a mountain, where, in conference with the supreme Being, he was permitted to propose to him some questions concerning his administration of the universe. In the midst of this divine colloquy, he was commanded to look down on the plain below. At the foot of the mountain issued out a clear spring of water, at which a soldier alighted from his horse to drink. He was no sooner gone, than a little boy came to the same place; and finding a purse of gold, which the soldier had dropped, took it up, and went away with it. Immediately after this, came an infirm old man, weary with age and travelling, and having quenched his thirst, sat down to rest himself by the side of the spring. The soldier missing his purse, returns to search for it, and demands it of the old man, who affirms he had not seen it; and appeals to Heaven in witness of his innocence. The soldier, not believing his protestation, kills him. Moses fell on his face with horror and amazement, when the divine voice thus prevented his expostulation: Be not surprised Moses, nor ask why the judge of the whole earth has suffered this thing to come to pass. The child is the occasion that the blood of the old man is spilt; but know that the old man, whom thou sawest, was the murderer of that child's father. Addison's evidences of the Christian religion.
O N T H E S O V E R E I G N T Y, or Supreme power of the United States of America.
As it will stand, according to the true interest and operation of the federal and state constitutions, in the event of the adoption of the new act of confederation, proposed to the people by the late general convention in September, 1787.
THE actual seat of the sovereign power in every country, or the body in which it is really invested, is that, which can at all times alter, amend or add to the constitution of the government. The following article of the proposed federal constitution effectually and absolutely reserves that sovereign power to the state legislatures and state conventions, chosen by the people. "The Congress, when two thirds of both houses shall deem it necessary, shall propose amend-
ments to this constitution, or, on the application of the legislatures of two thirds of the several states, shall call a convention for proposing amendments, which in either case shall be valid to all intents and purposes, as part of this constitution, when ratified by the legislatures of three fourths of the several states, or by conventions in three fourths thereof, as the one or other mode or ratification thereof may be proposed by the Congress."
Congress, we see, may propose any amendments that appear necessary, but cannot adopt or ratify one. As to important business of amendments, or alterations of the constitution, they will be a mere council of advice, whose proposed alterations will always be rejected, if four states of the thirteen shall disapprove them. It appears clearly, then, that Congress cannot make or alter the supreme law of the land—that is, the constitution of government; and of course that they will not hold the sovereign power.
Where then will this power, paramount to all others, lie? The above article says that Congress, on the application of two thirds of the state legislatures, shall call a convention for proposing amendments. Here is an instance of high powers wisely deposited in the hands of the state legislatures, for they can compel the federal legislature, who we have seen are not the sovereign, to institute amendments which Congress absolutely disapprove, and which may diminish and reduce their powers. But should the state legislatures with dangerous or unwise to enlarge their own jurisdiction, by depriving Congress of such powers as are life and necessary , there is left in the hands of the federal legislature, a right to require that the amendments and alterations proposed shall be considered by a convention in every state, chosen by the people themselves.
The powers of the people of the United States of America it appears therefore will be,
1st. That they alone will chuse all the legislative, executive, judicial and military officers of their general and state governments, or that they will chuse those who are to appoint them.
2dly. That they alone will chuse all the members of the state legislatures and state conventions, to which bodies are specially reserved the right to ratify alterations and amendments of the federal constitution, not only independently of Congress, but also such alterations and amendments should be contrary to the unanimous opinion of that body. Truly then may we affirm, that the supreme or sovereign power of the United States of America, in the event of the adoption of the proposed federal constitution, will not be vested in Congress, but that it will remain in the people themselves.
AN AMERICAN CITIZEN.
ADDRESS to the Honorable the Members of the CONVENTION of VIRGINIA. (Said to be written by Tench Coxe, Esq.)
BY the special delegation of the people of your respectable commonwealth, you are shortly to determine on the fate of the proposed Constitution of Federal Government. First invited to that important measure by the resolutions of your Legislature from the wisest considerations. America considering in the steadiness of your patriotism, and feeling that new weight is daily given to your original inducements, doubts not it is now to receive your sanction. But before the awful determination which is to call the American union once more into political existence, shall be finally taken, permit one of the most respectful of your countrymen to trespass a few minutes on your time and patience.
The qualities of the proposed government have been so fully explained, and it will receive such further exposition in your Honorable body, that it is needless to attempt a regular discussion of the subject. This paper shall, therefore, be confined to a few particular considerations, that have been already mentioned by others, or which may now be suggested for the first time. It has been urged, by some sensible and respectable men, that your extensive state will not be properly represented in the Federal Senate. Permit me to remind you, that, altho' you have but one vote of thirteen in the present union, you will have twelve in ninety-one in the new Confederacy. Suffer me to observe, too, that as the United States are free governments, it might not have been very unreasonable, if the people of Virginia could have given only the same number of votes, at an election for Federal purposes, as they can give at a state election. If the citizens of Virginia think it wise and prudent, that free persons only shall be taken into consideration, in electing their State Legislature, would it appear extraordinary, that the citizens of the United States should think the same rule proper in electing the federal representatives? By the present arrangement, you may enjoy the weight and power of five votes and a half for 168,000 slaves, being three fifths of your whole number of blacks. Were these to be deducted from the votes of Virginia, in the Federal House of Representatives, it would leave little more than one vote in thirteen, in that House. In the present Congress, as before observed, and in the proposed Senate, a thirteenth vote is allotted to Virginia. Taking the number of free citizens, which is the proper rule of representation in free governments, Virginia, in the Federal representation, would have about as many votes as New-York, and fewer than Massachusetts or Pennsylvania. It will be proper to consider, too, the effect of the erection of Kentucky into a separate State, and of her becoming another member of the Confederacy. When that certain event shall take place, Virginia will fall considerably short of the proportion of one in fourteen of the free white inhabitants of the United States. Impartially considering this true state of things, the opinion, that Virginia will hold a share of the powers of the new government, less than she is entitled to, will appear to be erroneous. If, on examination these facts shall be found to be stated with accuracy and candor, and the observations and reasoning, upon them shall appear just and fair, we confidently trust your Honorable House will not consider the proposed Constitution as exceptional in that particular.
Objections have been made, by some very respectable gentlemen of your State, to the power of Congress, under the new Federal Constitution, to regulate trade "by a bare majority." In a free government, the voice of the people, expressed by the votes of a majority, must be the rule; or we shall be left without any certain mode to determine what is politically right. To depart from it, is establishing tyranny by law. It would be a solemn renunciation of the forms and substance of liberty; and our affairs, on this "dangerous principle," must rapidly hasten to an oligarchy—the most dreadful of all governments. It would be in vain to say we might be restrained by one third, in commercial cases, and free in all others. The precedent once established, it requires no prophetic gift to foresee where it would end. But, independent of the violation of this great principle of free governments, the objection and the apprehensions arising from it are founded on a misconception of the true nature of affairs in all the States. The landed interest must ever possess a commanding majority in the State and Federal Legislature. It was supposed the objection ought to have great weight in the five Southern States. But we do not find it has been even mentioned, in the Maryland or Georgia Conventions, the only two of them
which have yet determined on the Constitution; nor was it noticed in New-Jersey or Delaware, which are the least commercial members of the Confederacy. Four of the agricultural States have considered this objection and these fears as unfounded, for they have adopted the Constitution with only eleven dissenting votes.

The Inhabitants of the City of NEW-YORK
ARE respectfully informed, that the able therein interested, are opening a NEW CHIMNEY OFFICE, at No. 21, Wall-street, two doors from Mr. James Rivington's. He trusts he will be able to give general satisfaction to those who may please to employ him, (organised by their becoming subscribers) as he is determined to join unremitted assiduity to the plan, and 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 distinguished mark of a cap, on the front of which, will be the word, New Chimney Office, No. 21, Wall-street, to see the business performed. 2d. To allot each a proper district, in such manner, as that every subscriber's chimney shall be regularly swept once every month, (or if ever 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 citizens a general public service, in case of fire, the sweepers shall be made to attend, and perform such services as may be required of them. The under taking merits the greater attention, as it will contribute in a particular manner to the lives and fortunes, a prevent the destruction of property, by conflagration, which too frequently originates from faulty chimneys, occasioned, in some instances, by neglect of sweepers attending at regular periods, and in other, not knowing where to apply. Subscribers will be in the happy situation of being at a fixed price, and the plan will be begun upon the second June next. May 9. tf STEPHEN PATERSON.
