AUGUSTA, May 24. Extract of a letter from a gentleman of veracity in Washington, Wilkes county, dated May 10, 1788. Yesterday about two o'clock in the afternoon we had a violent shower of hail, which lasted about 20 minutes; the hailstones were from two to nine inches in circumference; the children in the streets were beaten to the ground, and wounded, the glass windows entirely demolished, and every growing of grain. We are informed it did not extend above two or three miles from north to south, the wind blew fresh from the south east. Between three and four o'clock the clouds dispersed, and Heaven seemed again to smile on Washington.
SAVANNAH, June 12. We have advice from Liberty county, that on Tuesday the 3d instant, at noon, a small party of Indians came to the plantation of John Houghton, Esq. at the Altamaha, and near the fort killed a poor man named McCormick, scalped his son, and carried off three of his daughters, with a little boy. A party of men from the fort pursued the savages till dark, but could not come up with them. Last Sunday afternoon part of the chimney of the house at Rosedue plantation was broke down by lightning, which afterwards taking its course to the piazza struck Mr. and Mrs. Butler, and a negro boy. Mr. Butler lay for some time speechless, and was very much hurt, as was the negro boy; Miss Butler was but slightly hurt, and soon recovered from the shock.
CHARLESTON, June 16. On Wednesday afternoon departed this life, after a long and afflictive illness, FREDERICK PASKEE, Esq. captain in the legion, under the command of the valiant count Polaski, in the late American army, aged 44, he was a native of Poland, and always supported the character of an irreproachable, honest man, and a brave soldier. His remains were the next morning respectfully deposited in St. Philip's church yard, with music playing a solemn dirge, attended by the society of Cincinnati, of which he was a member. June 19. On Monday last were executed pursuant to sentence of the Court of Admiralty Sessions, for piracy on the American Seas, Captain William Rogers, of New-London, in Connecticut; John Masters, of Cheshire, in England, and William Pendergrast, of Derbyshire, in England, charged and found guilty of the murder of Mr. Abraham Nathan, of the Jewish nation, joint-owner with Rogers, and passenger on board the sloop Betsey, in October last. Also, Richard Williams and William Cain, both of England, for the murder of Captain Nathaniel C. Webb, and Mr. Cleod or McCleod, on the nineteenth or twentieth of May last, on board the schooner Two Friends.
The unhappy and miserable Rogers appeared uncommonly penitent and resigned, from the day of his being apprehended to the moment of his execution, where he solicited the attendance of the Clergy, and joined in pathetic prayer to the Supreme being—soliciting the pardon of his God for every trespass he had committed—and the forgiveness of every mortal that felt himself injured by him. He to the last, denied having wilfully or maliciously killed Mr. Nathan, and uniformly persisted in the declaration, that he was not in found mind when the bloody transaction took place; and that he was subject to fits of lunacy. This assertion Rogers has repeatedly made to Mr. Phaelon, both before and after his trial (and to divers other gentlemen) as he likewise has, in sundry parts of a narrative of his life, which he had been writing several days prior to his death. The contemplation of leaving an aged father and mother—an affectionate, respectable wife and five young children, seemed to distress him beyond expression or description, and deeply affected the numerous spectators, male and female: Rogers repeatedly at the place of execution, begged the prayers of all present, and has often conjured Major Phaelon to give good advice and directions to his unfortunate children.
Which Mr. Fanning of Connecticut, cousin of governor Fanning, and several others from that state, have likewise declared, as also to his being addicted to strong Liquor, which always bereaved him of his reason.
NEWBERN, June 12. Every day, says a correspondent, adds to the weighty arguments in favor of the proposed federal constitution—The friends of the American union in Europe and Kentucky have certainly a belief, that overtures have been made by Great-Britain to leading characters on the western waters, to induce the inhabitants of that country to differ themselves from their brethren on the Atlantic. This idea has been suggested, no doubt, by the late divisions and distracted politics of our country; and nothing can prevent its being carried into execution but a firm union, a constitution of general government with sufficient powers, and a wise and honest administration. Were we to lose the government now proposed to the people of America, and fall into single and separate states, and the people of the western country were to be reduced into the schemes of Great-Britain, miserable would be the situation of Virginia, the Carolinas, and Georgia, on the south, and of New-Hampshire and New-York on the north. Some of them would be seized by Britain as their outlet to the Atlantic; for they would rather risk a quarrel with a single detached American state, from which they could fear nothing, than hazard a quarrel with the House of Bourbon.
NEW-YORK, July 1. Our last accounts from Poughkeepsie were dated on Saturday last. The Convention were then debating on the 8th sec. of the 1st art. on which they had then spent three days;—Mr. Hamilton advocating the clause against the objections of Mr. Smith, Mr. Lansing, and Mr. Williams. Matters, we understand, are taking a warm turn in our Convention. Sunday papers were produced on Saturday, to show an inconsistency in the politics of this State. This produced, by way of retort, an accusation of inconsistency in an Honorable Member of the Convention from this city, with respect to the State Government; Mr. Lansing declaring, that it was the prevailing sentiment of the General Convention, that the State Governments ought to be destroyed, and that it was particularly the sentiment that Colonel Hamilton delivered in that Convention. Mr. Hamilton denied this peremptorily, and justified his conduct, with some severe remarks on Mr. Lansing. This produced some disorder, on which the Committee rose. A resolution was then entered into, that the Convention would meet twice in each day—from nine in the morning, and sit till noon; and from three till six in the afternoon—The decision, we are informed, will probably take place this week. From a gentleman of veracity, just arrived from South-Carolina, we have had the satisfaction to learn that several of the interior Parishes of that State who had been violently opposed to the New Constitution, previously to its adoption there; and
whose Delegates in the late Convention had retired pacifically inclined to bring over their constituents into an accordance with the sentiments of the majority of their fellow citizens, in regard to the newly proposed government, were so much impressed with an idea of the reasonableness of such an acquiescence as to join in celebrating, with the greatest solemnity, the adoption of the Federal Government. The ratification of New-Hampshire has at length completed the Federal Edifice, which will prove a refuge from the storms and tempests of anarchy and divided empire. The considerate people of the complying States are now intent on discovering the men best calculated to administer the important affairs of our national government. The concurring voice of the country has placed our illustrious Commander in Chief in the Presidential Chair; and a very respectable majority of influential characters are determined to support the pretensions of Governor Hancock, as President of the Senate. He possesses every claim that can operate on the feelings of a grateful people. He discharged the duties of President of Congress with much ability, and universal satisfaction, in the most trying periods of the war. He has made a sacrifice of a great portion of his property in the public service. He is eminently popular throughout the New-England States; and would, in that country, unite more suffrages for his support, than any person who has ever been a candidate for public favor. His name is more known and distinguished in Europe than that of any American, who has confined his political exertions to the walks of civil life.—Such is the man that the general voice of the assenting States holds up as the most eligible candidate. Proposals for publishing by subscription the Debates of the Convention of Virginia, are issued in Richmond. Price for every 200 pages is to be a dollar. A WHITE GLASS MANUFACTORY has lately been set on foot in New-Jersey, and the glass pronounced equal to the English white glass. It is said, that the French ministry are determined to encourage manufacturing in the United States of America, as they say, the more trade Great-Britain has, the richer she will be, which will make her a stronger and more powerful enemy to France when those two countries are at war with each other; but on the contrary, if they can transfer the manufacturing business from Great-Britain to America, and can be supplied from thence with the goods which they now get from Great-Britain, that they will thereby enrich this country and serve themselves, for as we have an alliance with them, the richer and stronger they can make us, the more they will benefit themselves. They observe, that it will not lessen their present trade with us, as we now take but few dry goods of them, and that we shall for many years continue their customers for cambricks, wines and brandy, &c. They will us to have a navigation act, as they say it will encourage our shipping and increase our seamen and ship carpenters; they say then when they are at war, we will be able to assist them with our ship carpenters and sailors; in short they seem very sensible of the essential service they have rendered themselves by assisting us to procure our independence, and as they see we shall become a great and powerful nation, they like sound politicians court us for our friendship in time. We expect also, that manufacturers with large capitals, will come over to this country from England and Ireland, &c. and make their fortunes, and afterwards return to Europe and enjoy them. It is thought, that many people of property in Great-Britain, will come here and build ships, in order to reap the sweets of our carrying trade, which would answer their purpose well; they would without doubt in that case, build the vessels with the live oak of the southern states, as it is found to last longer than the oak of any other country. Foreigners by building vessels in America, will require a less capital to manage the carrying business than it now does by building their ships in Europe; by this manoeuvre they will make sure of keeping the American seamen in their employ, and will at the same time make trade brisk in this country. Extract of a letter from John Peregrine Foster, Esq. to a gentleman in Providence, dated at New-York, June 4, 1788. "I have only time to communicate that I this morning arrived in this city, on my way from the Muskingum-River, with the dispatches from the Honorable Rufus Putnam, Esq. Superintendent of the operations of the Ohio Company, in the Western Country, to be delivered at the Secretary's office in Boston. "In my last I mentioned the causes of our unexpected delay in our journey. The same causes, so far as respected the badness of the weather, continued to retard our business, so that we did not arrive at the Muskingum till the 7th day of April. "The difference of climate in going down the river struck me very favorably. We left Buffalo-Creek, about 80 miles below Pittsburgh, April 6th—then not a leaf on the trees, and scarcely a vegetable growing.—At the Muskingum the next day we found the trees on the bottoms covered with leaves, and the ground richly laden with a great variety of vegetables, about half a foot high.—Our cattle and horses required no feeding but what grew wild in the woods, and grew fat thereon.—We were fortunate on our arrival in finding about 70 Indians, of the Delaware and Wyandot nations, at Fort Harmar; among whom was King Pipes, the Chief of the Delawares, and others of note. They appeared well pleased at the idea of our settling the country. Pipes, among other expressions of friendship said, 'So long as the Sun, the Moon, and the Stars shall endure, the Delawares, Wyandots and Yankees shall be friends and brothers.'—After the return of these Indians to their towns, others came down, who are equally well pleased with the former; and I doubt not it is the wish of those nations to live in peace, and think it probable that at the ensuing treaty a permanent peace will be established, not only with them, but with the other nations. "The land within our purchase, so far as I have been able to observe, in fertility of soil, is adequate to my expectations, but rather more hilly, especially near the Ohio—but the hills are chiefly capable of being improved to advantage in the culture of wheat, for grazing land; and other farming purposes. The growth of timber is similar to the accounts published. The antient works, of which so much of late hath been said and written, cannot but evince the mind of every beholder that the country has been once settled by a powerful nation—a nation among whom there must have been government, by which the resources of the inhabitants were drawn forth. We can form no idea of the time when these works were erected, from the growth of the timber thereon, as it is as large as is found in other parts of the country. Of the truly surprising emigrations from the old States to the western country you can form some idea from this circumstance: In the first month of my being on the Ohio, above 4000 souls passed us to settle be-
fore our settlement, in about the same proportion. In the dispatches from Putnam, I am charged with the return of the 8 acre lots, and a general draft of the city of Adelphi, which is beautifully situated near the confluence of the Muskingum with the Ohio. In laying out the city, the Superintendent has reserved the covered way, leading from the city to the Muskingum River, the highest Mound, near the centre of the works, and two elevated squares in the public lots, which will be perpetual evidences of the former settlement of the country."
A rural incident, not unlike that of Henry IV. of France, happened lately to the Duke of Orleans, as he was hunting. After having run about a league and a half, quite alone in pursuit of a flying stag, the sound of the horn ceasing, he got to a narrow path that led to a cottage. It rained very hard, and the road was so bad, that the horse himself had some difficulty to get through. In a dread-ful condition did his highness knock at the poor villager's door, and, on being admitted, was received rather coldly, on account of the man's wife being at that very instant in labour. The Duke, however, willing to dry his cloaths, and take some refreshment, if the cottage could afford any, sat himself down by the kitchen fire, and asked for bread and wine. The man, quite confused, and in a great hurry, brought him the remains of a large loaf, some bacon, and two bottles of wine, bade him eat and drink his fill, if he was hungry, but begged he would let him alone for a few minutes, for his wife was so very ill in the next room, that he could not help going to see if he could be of any service to her. "You may warm yourself in the mean time (says he) and we'll drink a glass together presently." The Duke, who was very hungry, fell to without ceremony; and in a quarter of an hour afterwards, on seeing the man enter the room, with visible marks of joy in his countenance, asked him how his wife did. "Tis all over (replied the countryman, rubbing his hands) I have got a lovely boy; now Sir, we'll drink the good mother's health, if you please." "With all my heart, (says his highness); but pray, my honest friend have you got a godfather for the new-born?" "Faith I haven't much thought about it; we are so few in this quarter of the world, I don't, believe there are twenty persons in the neighbouring hamlet, and they are chiefly women." "Well, if you'll get me a handsome godmother, I offer to stand myself, if you approve it." "Sir, you have the appearance of a gentleman, though at present in a most shocking condition, and I shall be proud of the honor; I'll go immediately and ask some of my neighbours daughters, we'll make a christening of him in a minute, if the Curate is at home." Four young women, who were rather handsome, refused to stand with the Duke, probably on account of his dirty cloaths, or perhaps because they wished to have some of their young acquaintance present at the ceremony. An elderly woman offered, and was accepted by his highness; the Curate asked the stranger's name, and when the Duke gave him Lewis Philip "I must have your family name, my good Sir, (said the priest.) "You may add Bourbon, if you please, Sir." The reader may imagine the surprise of every body present, and the regret of the young girls, who refused to stand godmothers. His highness has settled a handsome pension on the child, the father, and the godmother. He paid besides very generously for his bacon and wine.

MR. CHILDS, AS you have frequently declared that your paper should be free and impartial, permit me to request that you will be pleased to give the following a place in your next paper, and you will oblige A CUSTOMER. To the PRINTER of the DAILY ADVERTISER. SIR, I HAVE ever considered it a duty incumbent on every one, who attempts to give a relation of whatever comes under his observation, to do it with candor and decency.—I am led to this remark, by reading in your paper of this day, an extract of a letter from Poughkeepsie, dated June 21. I attended the debates, in Convention at the time the letter writer mentions; but before I make any comments on his epistle, would beg leave to correct one of his mistakes, altho' not of much importance, as to the general subject of his letter.—It is this—He says, "to-day (meaning the 21st, which was the day before he arrived at Poughkeepsie) the Convention was opened, &c." It would have been dated the 23d, for it was on that day Mr. Harrison opened the debates he alluded to. Permit me now to make some general remarks on the extract. It is readily admitted, that Mr. Lansing is not as great a speaker as the Chancellor; but, I believe it will be acknowledged by all, or the greater part of the persons then present, that his arguments were not destitute of ingenuity and good sense; and altho' they might not have met the approbation of some of his auditors, yet he by no means deserved the epithets given him, of being "miserably wretched and deformed in every public feature." It would be the height of injustice not to allow that the Chancellor is a gentleman of the first abilities, and confessedly one of the greatest orators in the State, but it is a truth, that it was the opinion of many gentlemen who were Members of the Convention, as well as others, that the Chancellor, in his reply to Mr. Smith, had obviously given a variety of constructions to his (Mr. Smith's) definition of an aristocracy, which were more fanciful than solid. The letter writer says, Mr. Smith had taken some very improper liberties with the Chancellor, and holds up an idea, that Mr. Smith's arguments tended to personality; having been present at the time he delivered the Speech, I must beg leave to assure the gentleman (who acknowledges it was spoken the day before his arrival) that Mr. Smith's arguments were general and not particularly pointed at any gentleman then in Convention, which, I believe, will appear to general satisfaction, when the debates of that day are published. I presume the writer of the letter in question, wishes to be understood as speaking metaphorically, when he says, that the Chancellor took Mr. Smith by the hand, and that "if ever a man was ridiculously introduced into a public assembly he was." And further, that "the Chancellor embraced him about twenty minutes." I have my doubts how far this may be strictly metaphorical language, but I will assert that it is not literally true, for the Chancellor neither took Mr. Smith by the hand, nor did he embrace him. I would be glad to be informed on what the gentleman grounds his assertion, that during the twenty minutes the Chancellor embraced Mr. Smith, "the prayer of the House (which also includes the Members of the Convention) was, that the Lord should have mercy on his feelings."—Before he made such a positive assertion, he ought to have known the sentiments of at least the greater part if not the whole of the persons who were
except the writer, considered Mr. Smith's situation to be truly deplorable as to require their prayers.
The debates of that day, I expect will be published in the course of next week, when we shall have the Chancellor's Speech, and Mr. Smith's reply; from the latter, it will appear that Mr. Smith did not feel himself to be deeply wounded, as to be incapable of defending himself; and I will venture to assert, that he justified his arguments to the satisfaction of many respectable Members of the Convention, and although his speeches may not be so well decorated with the flowers of rhetoric, as those of the Chancellor, whose peculiar study it has been to make use of flowery language, yet it is acknowledged by very good judges, that he is as close a reasoner, and good logician, as but few in the State.
I shall pass over the panegyric on the Chancellor, who having paid "very particular attention" to the letter writer, confesses it would have been very ungrateful in him not to have returned his civilities. The writer is mistaken when he says, "the Governor nor any other gentleman have yet spoken." It will be found in the regular course of the debates, that the Governor had spoken twice, in reply, I believe, to some of Mr. Hamilton's arguments, and that Mr. Tredwell made a few remarks on the subject then under consideration, after Mr. Jay had concluded his speech. I will only further remark, the writer pleads himself with the idea, that if arguments, urged in favor of amendments, are not more formidable than those which have already been brought forward, the Constitution will be unquestionably carried; in a short time, I believe, he will be convinced of the fallacy of his expectations, and that the objections of the gentlemen who are in opposition to the proposed Constitution, without amendments, have not been so destitute of good sense and sound reasoning or argument, as he imagines.

To the honorable the Legislature of the State of New-York.
The Petition of the subscribers, Freeholders and Inhabitants of the Town of Lansingburgh, in the Patent of Stoneyarabia, in the county of Albany. Most humbly sheweth,
THAT the Freeholders and inhabitants of the said town, or the major part of them, have, at great expence, purchased lots of ground in the said town, and made settlements and improvements thereon, for the purpose of carrying on an extensive trade and commerce, and promoting the population of that part of the country.
That experience has taught your petitioners, that the regulation of the internal police of the said town, by the votes of the Freeholders and inhabitants, or by a committee by them annually chosen for the purpose, is attended with great difficulties and embarrassments, which daily increase and multiply.
That the said Freeholders and inhabitants, for want of being incorporated, cannot obtain a grant of a considerable tract of land, which has been generously promised to them, as commons for fuel and pasture, for the use and benefit of the said Freeholders and inhabitants, by means whereof their prospects of prosperity and mercantile prospects may be greatly diminished.
For remedy whereof, and in order to answer the beneficial purposes intended by your petitioners, they are desirous that the Freeholders and inhabitants, residing within the following boundaries and limits, may be incorporated, viz. Beginning at a certain pitch-pine stump, standing on the east bank of Hudson's river, opposite the south end of Whale Island, and running from thence S. 69, E. 178 chains, agreeable as the same was run and settled between Stephen Van Ranselaer, Esq. and Abraham Jacob Lansing. Thence N. 19, E. 286 chains and 50 links, as the same was also run and settled between Stephen Van Ranselaer, Esq. and Abraham Jacob Lansing. Thence W. to the mouth of the Hoberg Kill, at Hudson's river, to low water mark, as the magnetic needle pointed in the year 1760; and from thence down along the river, until opposite the said stump, and from thence to the said stump.
Your petitioners therefore pray, that an act may be passed, to incorporate the Freeholders and inhabitants residing within the limits aforesaid, by the name of the Trustees of the Freeholders and inhabitants of the Town of Lansingburgh.
That the trustee to be named in the said act may be seven, to wit: Abraham Jacob Lansing, John Van Ranselaer, Jo Ojomon Hoogland, Flores Banker, Elijah Jones, Aaron Ward, and John G. Yates.
That the Freeholders and inhabitants aforesaid may be enabled annually to choose seven trustees, to keep up a regular succession: That the name of Aaron Lane may be inserted in the said act, as clerk of the said town; Christopher Tillman, Esq. as treasurer; and David Henry, as marshal; and that their successors in office may likewise be annually chosen as aforesaid: And that the Legislature will be pleased to grant such powers, jurisdictions, and privileges to the trustees of the said town, and for the regulation of its internal police, as the Legislature in their wisdom shall deem meet and expedient.
And your petitioners will ever pray. Signed by A. B. JACOB LANSING, And above too others, Freeholders and inhabitants residing within the limits aforesaid. Lansingburgh, March 8, 1788.
In ASSEMBLY, March 11th, 1788.

The Inhabitants of the City of
NEW-YORK
ARE respectfully informed, that the subscriber intends opening a NEW CHIMNEY OFFICE, at No. 11, 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, (signified 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. 11, Wall-street, to see the business performed.
2d. To allocate 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. tf STEPHEN PATERSON.
