The Jewish Nation of the country of Cleves did not fail giving the King proofs of their respect, submission, and attachment, upon his visit to his Estates in Westphalia. The Chiefs of the said Nation, Messrs. Aaron Sadi Cofman, and Benedix Levi Isaac, met his Majesty three leagues from hence, and had the honor to present him a complimentary Poem, composed in Hebrew, with a German translation on one side. This piece is well done, and filled with the noble and elegant ideas which distinguish the Oriental compositions; it deserves to be translated into French. His Majesty accepted it very graciously, and expressed his satisfaction to the Israelite Chiefs.
L O N D O N, June 29. His Royal Highness the P— of W—, a few nights since, had the good fortune to win 30,000l. from the D— of B—. The morning, however, was considerably advanced, before this event took place. The Duke earnestly urged the Prince to continue the play, but his Royal Highness wishing to go to bed, he, in a most spirited tone, challenged the Duke to a single throw, in the following manner, the equal of which perhaps is unparallelled! "B—, if you are determined not to go to bed, and think you have not lost enough, I will give you one chance more. Stake your whole estate upon a single throw, and I am your man!" His Grace was astounded and perplexed, and, feeling the force of the reproof, immediately departed.
The vice of gaming, which has been carried in this country lately, to a height never before known, and seems to branch out into every possible shape of hazard. The nobility game with dice—the ladies with cards—the linen-drappers with bills—and the lower class with lottery tickets, or numbers—and the consequences are proportioned to the quality of the gamblers, being in four words—Suicide, Adultery, Bankruptcy, and the Gallows!
H A L I F A X, August 28. Monday, the detachment of the Royal Artillery, commanded by Captain D'Vernot, was reviewed by his Royal Highness Prince William Henry. They appeared in excellent order, and by their dexterity, both in the use of their field-pieces and small arms, met with the fullest approbation.
Tuesday his Royal Highness reviewed the 4th, or King's own regiment. The regiment went through the manual exercise, firings, and a great variety of evolutions, with a promptitude and exactness, that did honor both to the officers and men. After the review, the Prince returned on board his ship.—But the Society of the Blue and Orange, of which his Highness is a member, being to dine together at the Barracks of the 4th regiment, his Highness landed about 4 o'clock, as a Prince of the Empire. Previous to his landing, the Standard of England was displayed at the mast-head of the Andromeda, on which a royal salute was fired from all the King's ships in the harbor, and from the Governor's yacht. The ships yards were handsomely manned with sailors, neatly dressed in their blue jackets and clean white trowsers, and, who after the salute gave three cheers.—Commodore Sandys, in his barge, with his broad pendant—Capt. Minchin and Capt. Buller, in their respective barges, with their pendants, left their ships to accompany the Prince ashore. On his entering his barge and leaving his ship, the Royal Standard was struck at the mast-head, and a very neat one displayed in his barge. The ships again fired a royal salute, and manned their yards as before.—His Royal Highness was received at the ship, by his Excellency the Governor, Brigadier General Ogilvie, and several other gentlemen of the army, uncovered, and by them escorted, through a line of troops, to the place of entertainment. A royal salute was fired by a detachment of the Artillery, drawn up near the ship, immediately upon the Prince's landing—and another salute was fired from the Citadel, as soon as his Highness reached the Barracks.—About half past 8 o'clock in the evening, the troops of the garrison were drawn up on the summit of Citadel-Hill, and fired a few de joye, accompanied by a discharge of sixty-three cannon.
Tuesday arrived the sloop Peggy, captain Paddock, from a whaling voyage; she has taken 17 tons of spermaceti oil, and 9 tons of head-matter. Yesterday, the brig Catherine, captain Mullowney, arrived here, in seven days from Philadelphia.
B O S T O N, September 6. It is with great pleasure we inform our readers, that the buildings and works, in which the manufacture of SAIL CLOTH and GLASS are intended to be carried on—the one in Nassau-street, and the other in Essex-street, are prosecuting with the utmost vigor—and promise soon to be completed, and to give employment to a great number of persons, especially females, who now "eat the bread of idleness," from the want of some calling where they may gain an honest livelihood.
The fears for the safety of his Honor Governor LINCOLN, who failed for the Eastern country the day before the late gale of wind, are removed by his safe arrival at Hingham, a few days since.

To the Hon. JAMES BOWDOIN, Esq. L. L. D. President of the Humane Society, in Boston.
SIR, I HAVE the pleasure of communicating to you a successful case, in which I had the satisfaction of observing the return of animation to a young person, who on Saturday last fell out of a boat and was drowned, in about 12 feet of water.—A man at some distance saw him fall overboard, but at first thought he dove in, to bathe, as the day was very warm: but observing him to rise and sink two or three times, he apprehended, the lad was in danger, and ran to save him; but before he could reach the place, he was sunk to the bottom. Two men dove in after him, but could not recover him. Some time was spent to obtain a boat-hook, with which after several attempts, the body was taken up.
A messenger was immediately sent for the nearest physician, Dr. Kift, and another was sent for me. Before I arrived, the body had been rolled on a barrel, and shook with the head downward, and I was told considerable water came from the mouth—I had the body conveyed as soon as possible to a room, at which time the physician who had been sent for came in: without delay, we took off the wet clothes, and pursued the methods of treatment recommended by the Humane Society, for the recovery of persons apparently dead. After the means had been tried about an hour, an indistinct tremor was perceived in the pulse, and the body began to acquire warmth. The application of fruit and volatiles to the nose, procured considerable agitation. In an hour and a quarter, or twenty minutes from the time when we first began to use the means, the lad was sufficiently alive to open his eyes; but the return of animation was attended with great distress, and with groans which were heard in the neighboring houses. Some time after he spoke but seemed bewildered. Through the remainder of the day and the night, following, he was in great pain, thirst, and distressed for breath. In the morning the Doctor let him blood; several days afterwards he complained of a forensis in his stomach and bowels, probably owing to his being rolled, and pressed hard on a barrel, when taken out of the water; a method of treatment, which it is to be wished may be wholly omitted, in all cases of this kind, as there is danger of destroying the feeble remains of life, at that critical moment.
After the hurry was over, I made more particular enquiry into the circumstances, and found the lad was between twelve and eighteen minutes under water. When taken up, the people who were present declare there was no appearance of life. When I first saw him, the body was quite cold, the head and limbs were torpid and hung as those of a person quite dead.
While we were carrying him into a convenient place, in order to pursue the methods recommended for recovery, there was a small groan, not unlike that of one expiring. Words cannot express the anxiety of the father, when he came into the room where we were endeavoring to recover his drowned son, much less can language describe the feelings of the parent, when he beheld the return of life.
I have, Sir, been somewhat particular, as this is the first case in which I have been a joyful witness of the restoration of one, who had, as it were, passed the gate of eternity, and had not the necessary aid been afforded, would no doubt, before this time, have been silent in the grave. With great respect, I am, Sir, your's, and the Society's most obedient and humble servant, JOHN LATHROP.
Boston, July 27, 1788. The practice of rolling a subject on a barrel, and many other methods of producing a violent agitation of the body, have probably been adopted upon a mistaken notion of the admission of large quantities of water into the stomach and lungs.—The fact is, that in subjects recovered from apparent death, very little or no water has been found to have entered the lungs; and as to that which is received into the stomach, it is evident that even as much as is sufficient to fill it, can never be dangerous. And therefore every measure of this kind, can have no other tendency than to injure the organs, and impede the restoration of the circulation.
H A R T F O R D, Sept. 8. Last Saturday se'nnight, about four o'clock in the afternoon, a flash of lightning (conducted by the chimney) entered the dwelling-house of Mr. Silas Munill, of East-Windover, struck him and his son, a young lad (who were standing near the chimney) to the floor.—One fork of the livid flash struck him on the side next the chimney, burning most of his clothes on that side, from his shoulder to his foot, scorching his flesh in a very surprizing manner.—They were both very much stunned by the shock, but are likely to recover. His wife and the rest of his family were in the same room, but providentially did not receive any material harm—the roof of the house, chimney, and hearth, sustained considerable damage, being scattered in a most shocking manner.
A L E X A N D R I A, September 4. By Capt. Boylon, who left Madeira the 6th of July last, we are informed that the dispute between England and the Emperor of Morocco was amicably settled.—This intelligence was brought to Madeira by a British frigate, which arrived from Magadore a few days before Capt. Boylon failed.
N E W - Y O R K, Sept. 13.

Extract from the Proceedings of the General Assembly of Pennsylvania.
THURSDAY, September 4, A. M. A petition from James Rumsey, of Berkeley county, in the state of Virginia, was read, setting forth, that he has been several years employed with unremitted attention, and at a great expence, in inventing and bringing to perfection sundry machines and engines; namely, one for propelling boats on the water, by the power of steam; which has been already accomplished in experiments on a boat of about six tons burthen—another machine, constructed on similar principles, for raising water at a small expence, to be applied to the working of mills of different kinds, as well as to various useful purposes in agriculture—a new invented boiler for generating steam—and also other machines, by means of which grist and saw mills may be so improved in their construction, by a cheap and simple machine, as to require the application of much less water than necessary in the common mode; and praying an act may be passed, granting to him, his executors, administrators and assigns, for a term of years, the exclusive right of
constructing, navigating, and employing within this state, the several boats, engines, and machines by him invented and improved. Ordered to lie on the table.

Boston, August 20, 1788. GENTLEMEN, WE being appointed by the association of tradesmen and manufacturers of the town of Boston, to write to our brethren throughout the several states, do now address you on the very important and interesting subject of our own manufactures.
The late system of commerce pursued since the peace of importing such articles as can be manufactured among ourselves, tends to discourage the whole body of tradesmen and manufacturers of these states, who depend for the support of the n- selves, and families on their various occupations; and this practice, unless speedily check'd by the prudent exertions of those who are more particularly interested, must eventually prove ruinous to every mechanical branch in America.
Impressed with these sentiments, and finding the evil daily increasing—the tradesmen and manufacturers of the town of Boston, awakened by a sense of the danger which threatened them, assembled to deliberate on measures to relieve themselves from the destructive tendency of such importations.
An Association was accordingly formed, consisting of a representative from each branch, and in this body the whole manufacturing interest of this town becomes an object of general attention.
The first measure adopted by this association was to pass resolves respecting the importation of certain articles from Europe by our own merchants, and numbers of British agents residing among us; but knowing that nothing could be effected to any radical purpose, unless we had the authority of the laws, we petitioned the legislature of this state, praying that duties might be laid on the several articles enumerated in our petition. In consequence of which application, our legislature complied, in a great measure, with our request, by enacting laws for the encouragement of industry and for the promoting of our own manufactures.
However, as we are sensible that our present situation requires an extensive co-operation to compleat the purposes we wish, we take this method to bring forward a confederated exertion, and doubt not from a union of sentiment the most permanent benefits may rise. We therefore apply to you, gentlemen, to lend us your assistance, and, like a band of brothers, whose interests are connected, we beg you to join in such measures to advance the general good, as your prudence shall suggest, and your wisdom dictate.
We would with submission, recommend an association of your tradesmen and manufacturers, formed upon the most extensive basis, and supported upon the most liberal principles; we may then hope the manufacturers of this country will flourish, when each man becomes interested not only in his own branch, but in those of his brethren; encouraged by such extensive patronage, each individual will be animated to pursue his business with alacrity, knowing that he acts in concert with those on whose friendship he can with confidence rely.
An association being established in your state we shall be ever happy to correspond with; and we flatter ourselves from this social intercourse, a general harmony will prevail throughout the whole manufacturing interest of this country. As we hope to experience the good effects of the late acts of our general court, we would recommend a petition for a similar purpose to your legislature; and from the known disposition of your state to promote the welfare of America, we doubt not some plan will be devised by your general assembly to prevent the importation of such species of articles as are commonly manufactured in America.
We need not urge the necessity of some measures being immediately taken by the whole confederacy. The embarrassments of our navigation; the large debts contracted in Britain; and the remittances of our currency, all serve to put every real friend to his country upon serious attention; and if any mode can be adopted to remedy these evils, we are convinced no American will be backward in the cause, but will join heart in hand to promote the desirable purposes.
The means we propose, we conceive, are calculated to put each state upon deliberating on a subject highly important to the manufacturing interest; and we cannot but hope that some lasting benefits will accrue from the united voice of the tradesmen and manufacturers of America. These states are so extensive in their boundaries, so various in their climate, and so connected in their national interest, that if a plan could be adopted throughout the confederation for the exchange of the produce and manufactures of each state, we conceive it would serve to cement a general union, and prove a means to promote the interest of the whole.
The northern states might furnish many articles of manufactures which are now imported from Europe; and in return might receive those supplies peculiar to the growth and climate of the southern.
An association formed throughout the states upon so liberal a plan, would establish many extensive branches of manufactures; and if prosecuted with spirit, would put this country above the humiliating state of lavishing her stores of wealth to promote the manufactures of Europe.
We wish you to communicate this letter to such towns of your state as you shall think proper. We are, Gentlemen, With every sentiment of respect, Your most obedient servants, JOHN GRAY, GIBBINS SHARP. BENJAMIN AUSTIN, jun. SARSON BELCHER, WILLIAM HAWES, JOSHUA WITHERLE.

Extract of a letter from Andrew Morris, commander of the brig Polly and Betsey, to his owners, dated at St. Eustatia, August 18, 1788. "On the 28th of July, in lat. 33, 06, N. long. 71, 26, W. I fell in with a vessel, bottom upwards. I went on board the bottom and settled her, found her to be a Bermuda built sloop, about 700 bbls. burthen, was loaded with flour, middlings, corn-meal and corn in hds. Some of the cargo of corn and flour was marked M and she was from Philadelphia by the inspectors plugs in the flour. I also spoke a Schooner from North Carolina, belonging to Newbury-Port, Jas. Murrell, commander, in great want of sails, not having sufficient to carry her to any port. I supplied her with as many as I could spare." Arrived at Philadelphia—Ship Hannah, Mole, Barbadoes; Schooners Alexander, Turnbull, St. Eustatia; Betsey and Polly, Conyngham, Virginia; Betsey, Pendleton, North-Carolina—Sloops Hope, Mitchell, Boston; Alcey, Paul, St. Thomas's; Harry, Vanitie, Hispaniola & St. Thomas's; and Jenny, Rodney, North Carolina.
At a meeting of the Society, for the Relief of DISTRESSED DEBTORS, held at the House of Mr. JOHN SIMMONS, the fourth day of September, one thousand seven hundred and eighty-eight. (On Emergency) JONATHAN LAWRENCE, Esquire, President for the evening.
THE Committee of Visitation reporting, that from the great number of Persons relieved, the Funds of the Society were totally exhausted. That there were several Distressed Debtors in Pits-ton, who had no other Subsistence, but what was derived from this Body; and that without such aid, they must want the common necessaries of life. And the said Committee farther reporting that it would be necessary for the Society, to procure a quantity of Fire-wood for the benefit of the Prisoners the ensuing Winter; and that, were the means in the power of the Society, the same might be purchased at present, at a very low rate:—Whereupon, on motion, It is unanimously voted, that the Clergy in this City, be earnestly requested, to preach Charity Sermons in their respective Churches, for promoting the important and benevolent purposes of the Society. And that Dr. RODGERS, Mr. LYNN, Mr. BEACH, and Dr. KUNZE be a Committee for making the necessary arrangement to carry the same into effect.

SIXTEEN SERMONS.
Chiefly on Practical Subjects, enforced from ear Sermon's Pulpit.
By JAMES MUIR, A. M. late of Bermuda.
