CHARGES and PROOFS respecting the Conduct of PETER LANDAIS.
[Continued from Saturday's paper.]
No. II.
Commodore, Texel, 23d Oct. 1779. THE moment I was going on board your ship, I was just informed from shore, that Mr. Landais was there, with the American Lieut. Col. * and that they were determined to speak with Mr. De Cottineau. As he is not in a condition to support such an interview, I am instantly going to him.
Landais is a madman, from whom every thing is to be feared; against which I am now preparing myself.
I have the honor to be, with the greatest respect,
Commodore,
your humble servant,
P. RICOT. †
* Spencer, of South-Carolina.
† He was Captain of the Vengeance, a small tender.
No. III.
I THE under-signed Philip Ricot, Captain of a vessel in the service of the United States of America, and Commander of the Tender Vengeance, in conformity to the request of Commodore Paul Jones, my Commander, do communicate to him, and affirm to the different circumstances hereafter declared; in which M. Landais, Captain of the frigate Alliance, has, in this cruise, appeared to have deviated from that subordination which the service requires.
I observed, that, on the 31st of August, at half past four in the afternoon, a signal was made him by the Commodore to chase a sail in sight, which M. Landais did not obey.
The next day, Sept. 1st, the Commodore made him a signal to come under his stern, that he might speak with him: this M. Landais did not do.
The 5th of Sept. the Captains of the division being on board the Commodore, according to his orders, M. Landais was the only one who refused to go; and altho' Messrs. de Chamillard and Cottineau went on board the Alliance, to persuade him to it, he persisted in his refusal.
That, in the night of the 23d and 24th of said month, during the engagement between the Bon Homme Richard and the Serapis, the Alliance remained within cannon-shot of the enemy's ship, from about half after eight till ten o'clock, without my having seen her fire. I shall add, that, Oct. 1st, at eight at night, I received orders from the Commodore to go and tell M. Landais, who was to windward, to take post a-stern of him; to which I received this answer, and which was repeated by M. Landais himself: "Go, tell the Commodore, that he may go where he pleases." The inconsistency of this answer, and his rudeness to me, have since obliged me to testify my dissatisfaction to M. Landais, who appeared to have forgot it.
I affirm to the facts above declared.
Texel, 25th Oct. 1779.
P. RICOT.
[The Vengeance was to windward, just out of gun-shot, during the whole action between the Bon Homme Richard and the Serapis. The Captain was a sensible man, and a good Officer.]
IV.
THESE are to certify, that I, Henry Lunt, Second Lieut. of the American ship of war, the late Bon Homme Richard, but now of the Serapis, commanded by the Honorable John Paul Jones, having, on the 23d day of Sept. 1779, been ordered in a pilot-boat, with a party of men, after a brig; but, some time after I set out from along-side, a signal was made for me to return back to the Bon Homme Richard, she being then in chase of two British ships of war, the Serapis and Countess of Scarborough; and before I could get on board the Bon Homme Richard, she commenced engagement with the British ship of war Serapis. It being night, I thought it not prudent to go along-side in the time of action. Being in this boat near, I had an opportunity of seeing some part of the Alliance's behaviour, above three quarters of an hour after the action began with the Richard and Serapis. The Alliance was to windward of them, and appeared to be lying to, about one mile distance. At the same time, the Pallas was engaging the Countess of Scarborough to leeward of the Alliance, out of my sight. Presently, after the Pallas and Countess of Scarborough had ceased firing, the Alliance bore down for them, and disappeared out of my sight; What the did there, I can't tell; but she was gone, as near as I can judge, one hour and three-quarters, and then appeared to me to be going up to assist the Bon Homme
Richard, but was half-an-hour from that time before she fired; and, after she got up to the Richard and Serapis, she fired, and then stood off from them to the Eastward some ways and, as near as I can judge, was gone better than half-an hour, then returned back to the Richard and Serapis, and fired again.
(Signed)
HENRY LUNT.
On board the Serapis, at the Texel,
25th Oct. 1779.
[This Certificate of Lieut. Lunt, who was a near spectator, is of great weight and importance; it being only in the power of this gentleman, or of Captain Ricot (who, in the Vengeance, was also a near spectator) to give a true account of the respective positions and manœuvres of the ships engaged.]
V.
W E, the under-signed Officers on board the Tender La Vengeance, certify that, Oct. 1st, at eight at night, we received orders from the Commander of the Squadron, Commodore Paul Jones, to go and order the Frigate Alliance, which was to windward, to join the fleet, and to form the rear of the Squadron; at half past eight we communicated the Commodore's orders to the Alliance; and a voice, which we knew to be that of M. Landais, Captain of the said Frigate, answered us twice, bidding us tell the Commodore to go where he pleased; after which, without further answer we went to resume our station. In witness whereof we have signed these presents, to serve as a proof of the above.
Done on board the Vengeance,

New-York, Nov. 13.
The Hon. WILLIAM PATTERSON, Esq; of New-Jersey, having declined to accept of the appointment of a Delegate in Congress from that State, the Hon. JONATHAN DAYTON, Esq; of Elizabeth-Town, has been elected in his stead.
We have extracted the following articles from an English paper of the 17th Sept.
Extract of a letter from the Hague, Sept. 11.
"The following is the purport of the verbal notice sent by M. de Thulemeyer, his Prussian Majesty's Envoy Extraordinary, last Sunday, to the Pensionary."
"The conditions the King insists on, with regard to a proper satisfaction for the insult offered to his august sister, such as may repair the affront offered to the person of her Royal Highness, by forcibly opposing the journey this illustrious Princess (animated with the most salutary views) designed to undertake to the Hague, are the following, of which the underwritten, his Majesty's Envoy extraordinary, will give the particulars by this verbal notice, which he has the honor to address to the Pensionary of Holland, having before communicated them by word of mouth."
"The King expects their Noble and Great Mightinesses to write a letter to her Royal Highness, which before they send shall be shewn to his Minister, containing an acknowledgment of their error in supposing that Princess had any views contrary to the public welfare."
"That they make apologies for the opposition made to her journey, and for the want of respect she complains of."
"That their Noble and Great Mightinesses engage to punish, as her Royal Highness may require, those who have committed any offence against her august person."
"That they revoke the injurious and erroneous resolutions taken on account of this journey, which revocation must be accompanied by an invitation to her Royal Highness to repair to the Hague, there to enter into a negotiation with her in the name of the Prince Stadtholder, to conciliate, by a proper arrangement the present differences."
"The underwritten is besides authorised to declare to the Pensionary, that if their Royal Highnesses make any difficulty in granting such a moderate satisfaction, her Royal Highness will request her august Brother to make no further demand of satisfaction on this account."
"He, moreover, has the honor to inform him, that if the fixing upon the Hague for carrying on the negotiation meets with any difficulty, they may chuse any neutral city for the holding the said negotiations for the conciliating and putting an end to the subsisting differences."
"The underwritten likewise declares to the Pensionary that his Majesty expects in the interval the States of Holland to let every thing remain in its present state; that they proceed to no suspension, deprivation, or other measures offensive and prejudicial to the person of the Prince Stadtholder, Captain and Admiral General, as they thereby will render all conciliation useless and
impossible, and only add to their former offensive proceedings."
To the above conditions his Majesty expressly insists that an answer be returned in four days."
The Court of France seems to be giving way to the United voice of the French Parliaments. This appears from the moderate answer the French King has given to the Court of Aids: He tells them, that he did not expect from their zeal more extensive observations on the edicts which he had made the Courts to register. He goes on to say, "I have received from the Kings my predecessors, the plenitude of authority they exercised: and that portion of it, which I have entrusted to my Court, can never have for effect, the withdrawing of my laws without an examination of them, and without a representation of the inconveniencies that may result from them. My Courts cannot possibly imagine, that they have received full power to resist my will, and no power to carry it into execution."
"I shall weigh in my wisdom your observations, with those which I expect from several merchants, and the Chamber of Commerce. The execution of my edicts shall remain suspended, until your meeting after the vacation." (The 1st of November—and the edicts were to have taken place the next month).
The following Letter, containing the objections of the Hon. ELBRIDGE GERRY, Esq; Delegate from Massachusetts, against his signing the National Constitution, we lay before our Readers for their serious Perusal:
NEW-YORK, 18th October, 1787.
GENTLEMEN,
I HAVE the honor to inclose, pursuant to my commission, the Constitution proposed by the Federal Convention.
To this system I gave my dissent, and shall submit my objections to the honorable Legislature.
It was painful for me, on a subject of such national importance, to differ from the respectable members who signed the Constitution: But conceiving as I did, that the liberties of America were not secured by the system, it was my duty to oppose it.—
My principal objections to the plan, are, that there is no adequate provision for a representation of the people—that they have no security for the right of election—that some of the powers of the Legislature are ambiguous, and others indefinite and dangerous—that the Executive is blended with and will have an undue influence over the Legislature—that the judicial department will be oppressive—that treaties of the highest importance may be formed by the President with the advice of two thirds of a quorum of the Senate—and that the system is without the security of a bill of rights. These are objections which are not local, but apply equally to all the States.
As the Convention was called for 'the sole and express purpose of revising the Articles of Confederation, and reporting to Congress and the several Legislatures such alterations and provisions as shall render the Federal Constitution adequate to the exigencies of Government and the preservation of the Union,' I did not conceive that these powers extend to the formation of the plan proposed, but the Convention being of a different opinion I acquiesced in it, being fully convinced that to preserve the Union, an efficient Government was indispensably necessary; and that it would be difficult to make proper amendments to the articles of Confederation.
The Constitution proposed has few, if any Federal features, but is rather a system of national Government: Nevertheless, in many respects I think it has great merit, and by proper amendments may be adapted to the "exigencies of Government, and preservation of liberty."
The question on this plan involves others of the highest importance—1st. Whether there shall be a dissolution of the federal government? 2dly. Whether the several State Governments shall be so altered, as in effect to be dissolved? and 3dly. Whether in lieu of the federal and State Governments the national Constitution now proposed shall be substituted without amendment? Never perhaps where a people called on to decide a question of greater magnitude—Should the citizens of America adopt the plan as it now stands, their liberties may be lost: Or should they reject it altogether, Anarchy may ensue. It is evident therefore, that they should not be precipitate in their decision; that the subject should be well understood, lest they should refuse to support the government, after having hastily accepted it.
If those who are in favour of the Constitution, as well as those who are against it, should preserve moderation, their discussions may afford much information, and finally direct to an happy issue.
It may be urged by some that an implicit confidence should be placed in the Convention. But however respectable the members may be who signed the Constitution, it must be admitted, that a free people are the proper guardians of their rights and liberties—that the greatest men may err—and that their errors are sometimes of the greatest magnitude.
Others may suppose, that the Constitution may be falsely adopted, because therein provision is made to amend it: But cannot this object be better attained before a ratification than after it? And should a free people adopt a form of Government, under conviction that it wants amendment.
And some may conceive, that if the plan is not accepted by the people, they will not unite: But surely whilst they have the power to amend, they are not under the necessity of rejecting it.
I have been detained here longer than I expected, but shall leave this place in a day or two for Massachusetts, and on my arrival shall submit the reasons (if required by the Legislature) on which my objections are grounded.
I shall only add, that as the welfare of the union requires a better Constitution than the Confederation, I shall think it my duty as a citizen of Massachusetts, to support that which shall be finally adopted, sincerely hoping it will secure the liberty and happiness of America.
I have the honour to be, Gentlemen, with the highest respect for the honourable Legislature and yourselves, your most obedient, and very humble servant,
E. GERRY.
The Hon. Samuel Adams, Esq;
President of the Senate; and
The Hon. James Warren, Esq;
Speaker of the House of Representatives of Massachusetts.
From the Boston Gazette.
THE REASONS of the Hon. Mr. GERRY for dissenting from so very large and respectable a MAJORITY of the late Continental Convention have at last reached the public eye; and now let every unprejudiced patriotic mind candidly determine whether it is possible to conceive that thirty-nine Members out of forty-two, which was the whole number the Convention consisted of, would have affixed their signatures to a Constitution by which themselves and posterity were to be governed in all generations, so essentially defective as this gentleman's letter suggests?—No, it cannot be; and I trust the good sense of the people of this Commonwealth will induce them to give the above idea its full weight and importance, for it is as true as it is ancient, that 'in a multitude of Counsellors there is safety'—and to suffer ourselves to be influenced upon this momentous subject by the opinion of an individual in opposition to so large a majority of enlightened distinguished and decided Patriots, will be sacrificing the Rights of the people, by adopting the wishes of perhaps an interested minority, instead of the determination of those whose opinion ought upon every Republican principle to predominate, viz. the MAJORITY.
As justice to themselves, and a decent regard to the public opinion, seem to require that the Hon. Members of the Convention from this State, who not only assented to, but signed the American Constitution, should publish their reasons for so doing: it is expected that we shall shortly be favored with such a communication—which will doubtless afford much satisfaction and information to the public.

New-York AIR FURNACE. PETER T. CURTENIUS and CO. have repaired the New-York Air Furnace, and have procured the best workmen, together with the ne- -cessary apparatus to carry on the Manufacture of Cast Iron in the completest and best manner. Castings made in an Air Furnace, are al- -lowed by all who are acquainted with the nature of Foundries, to be better than what is made in a Blast Furnace; because, in an Air Furnace, the ware is made out of the softest and best Pig Metal, and, by its being melted a second time, the scoria, or dross, is expelled, and nothing but the pure Metal remains. In a Blast Furnace, the Castings are made out of the first smelting of the crude Ore, and are more or less mixed with dross, which subjects the ware to be rough and spongy, and often full of cold shutts: the diffe- -rence, in short, is nearly the same as there is be- -tween refined and Bloomery Iron.---The ware they have made is allowed, by good judges, to be as light, as smooth, and as good as any imported from Europe. This consideration alone, of the ware be- -ing as good as the foreign, is a sufficient inducement, for an American, to give the preference to the manu- -factures of his own country, but a more powerful ar- -gument for the purchaser to give it a preference is, that it can be afforded cheaper than the imported ware, chiefly owing to a duty of six pounds per ton being laid on foreign castings. The ware manufactured at this Furnace, consists of the following articles, viz. Pots and kettles of various sizes, from one to fifteen gallons, tea-kettles, pye-pans, skil- -lets, griddles, potash kettles and coolers, whaling- -kettles, boilers for tallow-chandlers and sugar-works, stoves for sugar-bakers, mill-cases, cast irons for sugar- -works and distillers, rollers and shears for slit- -ting-mills, chimney-backs, hearth and jamb plates, cast agreeable to any pattern that may be sent; close stoves for work-shops, Franklin stoves neatly deco- -rated with carved work, Bath stoves-grates elegantly ornamented with carvings, ship's cabouzes of the new construction, with bake ovens in them, in which the same fire broasts and boils the meat, bakes the bread; mill rods and gudgeons, saw-mill cranks, calcining plates for making pearl ashes, cast iron furnace or fulling and paper-mills, fullers plates cast to any size that may be wanted, fash-welches, for ge- -hammers and anvils, plow-plates, half hundred quarters, fourteen and seven pound weights; cart waggon, coach, phaeton, chair and sulkey boxes, &c. &c. &c.
N. B. Persons who want any backs, or other ware, cast agreeable to particular patterns, will please to send their patterns and orders to the FURNACE , near Mr. Arlee's Brewery, or leave them at the house of PETER T. CURTENIUS , No. 48, Great Dock-street, near the Exchange. Oct. 15, 6w
