SAVANNAH, June 26. A letter having been received from Mr. Whitefield, (by express) dated in the Indian Nation the 15th ult. informing that the Creeks are much disposed for peace, and a conference being held by his Honor the Governor in Council with the Hon. Richard Winn, Esq. Superintendent of Indian Affairs for the Southern department, on the subject of appointing a time and place for holding a treaty with the Creek Indians, agreeable to a resolve of Congress of the 26th of October last, it was unanimously agreed, on the 13th inst. that the said treaty next, at Mr. Larkin Cleveland's, on Tugola River, in the County of Franklin.
BOSTON, July 2. We have it from the first authority in Rhode Island , that the Executive of that State will in a short period convene the Legislature thereof, for the purpose of calling a CONVENTION for considering the proposed Constitution. The weight in the Federal Senate, of Rhode-Island , will be as great as that of the largest State—to preserve the proper balance of power in the national government, it will be expedient that Rhode-Island , as well as Vermont , should accede to the new Confederation.
PROVIDENCE, June 28. On Tuesday morning last, the Eastern post brought the very interesting and important intelligence, that the State of New-Hampshire had on the Saturday preceding, adopted the proposed Constitution, whereby the structure of the national government was completed, and the federal edifice on Nine glorious pillars —The joy of the people burst forth like a blaze, catching from breath to breath, till it pervaded the whole town—and it was impossible to restrain the most public testimonials of their satisfaction—All the bells were set a ringing, and continued the joyful peal, with but short intervals, through the day. At 12 o'clock a salute was fired by the united train of artillery, on Federal Hill, in honor of the nine States which have adopted the Constitution—which was several times repeated in the course of the day—All the schools were dismissed for the day, and general gratulation, diffusing the sincerest joy among all ranks, succeeded. The Wavering , and several of those who have heretofore appeared against the Constitution, now heartily joined in the general joy; which soon extended itself to the fair seat of the Muses on College Hill, where the scholars, with their books under their arms, unanimously joined in a solemn procession; and peripatetically and philosophically, in honor of the day, named the beautiful Green round the College— The Federal Parade . The Town of Providence is truly federal; and as the new Constitution will, in its operation and consequences, be more especially beneficial to this state than to any other in the confederacy—it is hoped the people thereof will be so convinced of it as to call a convention, agreeable to the recommendation of Congress, for adding the Rhode-Island Pillar —which though among the smallest, may yet be considered as not the least deserving, when a little more of its seeming Antifederalism shall be rubbed off, and its genuine and intrinsic worth appear.
NEW-YORK, July 11. DECLARATION OF RIGHTS, Submitted to the Convention at Poughkeepsie, on Monday last, by Mr. LANSING.
THAT all freemen have essential rights, of which they cannot by any contract deprive or divest their posterity; among which are the enjoyment of life and liberty.
That all power is originally vested in and consequently derived from the people; and that government is instituted for their common benefit, protection and security.
That in all cases in which a man may be subjected to a capital or infamous punishment, no one ought to be put to his trial unless on an indictment by a grand jury; and that in all capital or criminal prosecutions, the accused hath a right to demand the cause and nature of his accusation; to be confronted with his accusers and witnesses; to produce testimony and have counsel in his defence; and to a fair, public and speedy trial by an impartial jury of the county in which the crime was committed, without whose unanimous consent he ought not to be found guilty (except in the government of the land and naval forces, in time of actual war, invasion or rebellion); nor ought he to be compelled to give evidence against himself.
That no freeman ought to be taken, imprisoned or disfranchised of his freehold, or be exiled or deprived of his privileges, franchises, life, liberty or property, but by the law of the land.
That no person ought to be put in jeopardy of life or limb, or otherwise punished twice for one and the same offence, unless upon impeachment.
That every freeman restrained in his liberty is entitled to an enquiry into the lawfulness of such restraint, without denial or delay, and to a removal thereof if unlawful.
That in all suits between man and man, the ancient trial of facts by jury is one of the greatest securities of the rights of a free people, and ought to remain sacred and inviolate for ever.
That excessive bail ought not to be required, nor excessive fines imposed, nor cruel nor unusual punishments inflicted.
That every freeman has a right to be secure from all unreasonable searches and seizures of his person, his papers, and his property; and that therefore all warrants to search suspected places or to seize any freeman, his papers or property, without information upon oath (or affirmation of a person religiously scrupulous of taking an oath) of sufficient cause, are grievous and oppressive; and all general warrants to search suspected places, or to apprehend any suspected person, without specially naming or describing the place or person, are dangerous and oppressive, and ought not to be granted.
That people have a right peaceably to assemble together to consult for their common good, or to instruct their representatives; and that every freeman has a right to petition or apply to the legislature for redress of grievances.
That the freedom of the press ought not to be violated or restrained.
That the militia should always be kept well organized, armed and disciplined, and include, according to past usages of the states, all the men capable of bearing arms, and that no regulations tending to render the general militia useless and defenceless, by establishing select corps of militia, or select bodies of military men, not having permanent interests and attachments to the community, ought to be made; and that the militia ought not to be subject to martial law except in time of war, invasion or rebellion; and that in all cases the military should be under strict subordination to and governed by the civil power.
That no soldier in time of peace ought to be quartered in any house without the consent of the owner, and in time of war only by the civil manner as the laws may direct.
That any person religiously scrupulous of bearing arms ought to be exempted therefrom upon payment of an equivalent.
That the free and peaceable exercise and enjoyment of religious profession and worship, is a natural and unalienable right, and ought never to be abridged or violated.
Extract of a letter from a gentleman of great political abilities and high character, dated Charleston, June 20, 1788.
Notwithstanding the threats of some, every thing is peaceable and quiet in this country. The new Constitution becomes daily more acceptable, and it is now the general wish that it may have a speedy operation."
Extract of a letter, dated Croisick, near the mouth of the river Loyre, May 8, 1788.
"The Northern inhabitants of Europe, such as the Norwegians, English, Dutch and Danes, have long since acknowledged the superior quality of the salt made here for the preservation of fish. I have been more than once astonished that the Americans have so long neglected to introduce it in their great and extensive fisheries; no where can they purchase it cheaper and of a more excellent quality, the price of the Muid (measure equal in weight to 3 English tons) delivered on board, free from any other charges is 30 livres; it is very probable that 'ere long it will still be lower by 4 or 5 livres, on account of the immense quantity which the new crop is likely to produce. I could with its purity, whiteness, strength and cheapness might be more generally known to the Americans; I am bold to say that it would greatly tend to the improvement of their fisheries."
As to our harbor, it is situated to the Northward of the mouth of the Loyre ; of an easy access and perfectly safe; it has at all times water enough for vessels of 14 or 15 feet draught: those which draw more, are obliged here as well as at St. Martin de Rhey , to remain in the first road, or to go into the river Villaine , 7 miles off; the additional expense in the first case, is 4 livres; in the second, 8 livres per Muid : this is but a small inconvenience compared to those enormous extra charges of 20 livres per Muid , which some American Captains have often been exposed to, when through ignorance of our coast or other circumstances, after having carried their vessels to L'Orient , they have found themselves under the necessity of ordering coastswise their cargoes of salt from here.

A SINGULARITY. One Baker, of Kent , born in 1700, and died in 1756.—At sixteen, he was disappointed in a love affair, on which he vowed never to pull off his clothes, or go to bed, until he should gain the affections of his mistress—which vow he religiously kept, and continued to sleep on the ground, or in a chair (without pulling off his clothes) the remaining forty years of his life. When his clothes were much worn, he used to have them sewed or patched by any good natured neighbour, who would take the trouble to do it; and at the time of his disease, his coat was of at least twenty seven colours, from the patches, which, from time to time had been sewn on it.
OF JOHNSON. It was an annual custom with Dr. Johnson's bookseller (whose name I have forgot) to invite his authors to dine with him; and it was upon this occasion that Dr. Johnson and Dr. Rose, of Chiswick , met, when the following dispute happened between them on the pre-eminence of the Scotch and English writers. In the course of conversation Dr. Warburton's name was mentioned, when Dr. Rose observed what a proud imperious person he was.—Dr. Johnson answered, "Sir, so he was, but he possessed more learning than has been imported from Scotland since the days of Buchanan ." Dr. Rose after enumerating a great many Scotch authors (which Johnson treated with contempt) said, "What think you of David Hume , Sir?"—"Ha! a deistical scribbling fellow?"—"Rose, Well, be it so, but what say you to Lord Bute ?"—"Johnson, (with a surly wow wow) "I did not know that he ever wrote any thing."—"Rose, "No, I think that he has written one line that has out done any thing that Shakespeare , or Milton , or any one else ever wrote."—"Johnson, "Pray what was that, Sir?"—"Rose, "It was when he wrote an order for your pension, Sir."—"Johnson, (quite confounded) "Why that was a very fine line to be sure, Sir." Upon which the rest of the company got up and laughed, and hallooed until the whole room was in a roar.
PROCESSION at PHILADELPHIA. ON Friday the 4th instant, the citizens of Philadelphia celebrated the Declaration of INDEPENDENCE made by the Thirteen United States of America on the 4th of July 1776, and the Establishment of THE CONSTITUTION or frame of Government proposed by the late General Convention, and now solemnly adopted and ratified by Ten of those States.
The rising sun was saluted with a full peal from Christ church steeple, and a discharge of cannon from the ship Rising Sun , commanded by captain Philip Brown, anchored off Market-street, and superbly decorated with the flags of various nations—Ten vessels, in honor of the Ten States of the Union, were dressed and arrayed through the whole length of the harbour, each bearing a broad white flag at the mast head, inscribed with the names of the States respectively in broad gold letters—in the following order— New-Hampshire opposite to the Northern-Liberties ; Massachusetts to Vine-street ; Connecticut to Race-street ; New-Jersey to Arch-street ; Pennsylvania to Market-street ; Delaware to Chestnut-street ; Maryland to Walnut-street ; Virginia to Spruce-street ; South-Carolina to Pine-street ; and Georgia to South-street . The ships at the wharfs were also dressed on the occasion, and as a brisk South wind prevailed through the whole day, the flags and pendants were kept in full display, and exhibited a most pleasing and animating prospect.
According to orders issued the day before, the several parts which were to compose the Grand Procession began to assemble at 8 o'clock in the morning at the intersection of South and Third streets.
Nine Gentlemen, distinguished by white plumes in their hats, and furnished with speaking trumpets, were superintendents of the procession viz. General Mifflin , General Stewart , Colonel Procter , Colonel Gurney , Colonel Will , Colonel Marsh , Major Moore , Major Lenox and Mr. Peter Brown . The different companies of Military, Trades and Professions had previously met at different places in the city of their own appointment, where they were separately formed by their officers and conductors and marched in order with their respective flags, devices and machines, to the place of general rendezvous. As these companies arrived in succession, the superintendents, disposed of them in the neighbouring streets in such manner as that they might easily fall into the stations they were
to occupy in forming the General Procession, as they should be successively called upon. By this means the most perfect order and regularity was effectually preserved.
After a brief review of the streets of the city, it had been determined that the Line of March should be as follows—To commence at the intersection of South and Third streets, thence along Third street to Callow-Hill street; thence up Callow-Hill street to Fourth street; thence along Fourth street to Market street, and thence to UNION GREEN , in front of Bush-Hill — William Hamilton , Esq. having kindly offered the spacious lawn before his house at Bush-Hill for the purposes of the day.
The Street Commissioners had the evening before gone through the Line of March, directed the payments to be swept, the trees to be lopt, and all obstacles to be removed.

[To be Continued.]
MR. CHILDS. MANY of your readers are disappointed at finding so valuable a piece of information as that of Col. Morgan's , respecting the insects destroying the wheat, discontinued after one day's publication. The truth upon so very important a subject should be carefully diffused thro' the country, and by being repeatedly presented to their notice, should be impressed upon the mind of every farmer, who should be informed that Col. George Morgan is himself an experienced farmer, and a very accurate and careful observer, so that the most entire and the fullest confidence may be placed in his information. You and every printer are therefore requested to re-publish his address, and to continue it for some time in your paper, to which you may if you please, add this caution—that the blessing of this discovery respecting the yellow bearded wheat will soon be lost, unless the farmers are very careful to preserve this kind of wheat pure from any mixture with other kinds, which can only be done by sowing it by itself, and not near to fields of any other kind with which it will certainly mix, and from that mixture gradually lose its valuable distinction, the hardness of its straw, by which it is preserved from the insect.
THE HESSIAN FLY. MR. CHILDS. OBSERVING a paragraph in your Daily Advertiser , addressed " For all the American newspapers ," dated at Philadelphia , the 13th of June, and signed A LANDHOLDER —I am induced from the same motives with the writer, which I am sure were good, to inform him that his ideas respecting the Hessian Fly are ill founded. As they may mislead others who have had no opportunity to know this destructive insect, I beg leave through your useful paper to refer him, and them, to the publications of the Philadelphia Agricultural Society , on this subject, as they contain its true history. If the LANDHOLDER will read those publications, he will be convinced that his address may do much injury to many, who have not had the means of better information however good his intentions may have been; and for this reason I recommend to all Printers, who have published his address, to give this as a caution against his recommendation. As a lover of my country, and a friend to the Farmers of the Middle States , I am further induced to declare, from experience, and a thorough investigation of the matter, that their absolute reliance (under Providence) must be on the yellow bearded Wheat , not the white , nor the red bearded Wheat , the sowing of which, by mistake, has occasioned much disappointment. That this declaration may have its full weight with all who know me, I give my name.
GEORGE MORGAN, of Prospect, New-Jersey . June 24th 1788.
D I R E C T I O N S. SOW strong ground between the 10th and 20th of September, as far south as lat. 40 and proportionally later more Southward; and manure well with lime where it is convenient. As I have reason to believe this yellow bearded Wheat came originally from Chesapeake Bay or the State of Delaware , I have sent samples thereof to his Excellency General Washington , to John Dickenson , Esq. and to John Beal Bordley , Esq. to ascertain the matter, in hope of rendering an acceptable service to the States of Virginia , Maryland and Delaware .
** THE PROCESSION is postponed till TUESDAY, the 22d instant.
SUCH branches of the Mechanics as did not meet the Committee of Arrangements last Saturday at the City Tavern , are requested to inform the Chairman of said Committee, by Monday next, whether they purpose to join the PROCESSION on the 22d inst. and to make a return of their arrangements.
By order of the Committee of Arrangements, RICHARD PLATT, Chairman. Coffee-House , July 10.
A Quarterly Meeting of the MARINE SOCIETY will be held on MONDAY next, at 7 o'clock, P. M. at the Coffee-house . The Members are requested to take notice, and attend.

The Inhabitants of the City of NEW-YORK ARE respectfully informed, that the subscriber intends 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, (designated 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 . 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, not 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. STEPHEN PATERSON.
