PHILADELPHIA, November 7.
A gentleman in Philadelphia equally venerable for his age and wisdom, declared a few days ago, that if he had seen no other reasons to admire or adopt the proposed Constitution of the United States, than the weakness and fallhood of the objections that have been made to it, they would alone determine his judgment in favor of its establishment in every State in the Union.
BOSTON, Nov. 8.
Last Tuesday evening, as Mr. Nathaniel Cunningham, of Little Cambridge, butcher, was returning home from this town, he was stopped on the Neck by four highwaymen, who commanded him to deliver his money; at the same time two of them presented and snapped loaded pistols at his breast; while a third stood over him with a drawn knife, threatening him with immediate death, if he refused to comply. After a short pause, Mr. Cunningham delivered them his money; they then abused him, and ordered him to go about his business, and immediately fled towards the town, but Mr. Cunningham meeting with timely assistance, they were closely pursued, and two of them were taken at the entrance of the town, and committed to gaol the same evening, to receive the just reward of their villainy.
New-York, Nov. 16.
Yesterday arrived in port, his Most Christian Majesty's packet Courier de l'Europe, Fournier, Esq. Commander, in fifty-four days from Havre de Grace.
In her came passengers, Doctor Peadle and his Lady.
In lat. 28, long. 29, Capt. Fournier spoke with the New-Jersey, Capt. Clunn, from Teneriffe, bound for Philadelphia, all well.
The advices we have received by the packet are--
That the Count de MOUTIER has been appointed Minister Plenipotentiary of France to the United States of America, in place of the Chevalier de la LUZERNE. The Count was to have taken his passage in the packet now arrived; but, on account of some delay, is detained till another opportunity.
That the Marechal de CASTRIES, Minister of the Navy, on account of his ill state of health, had resigned; and that the Count de la LUZERNE is appointed to succeed him. The Count is brother of the Chevalier de la Luzerne, and is now in the Island of Hispaniola, where he commands as Governor of the French Leeward Islands. A frigate has been dispatched for him: in the mean time the Count de Montmorin, Minister of Foreign Affairs, is at the head of the Navy.
That, early in September, orders had been given for the equipment of 25 sail of the line at Brest; but were afterwards countermanded.
That the Parliament of Paris had been recalled; and that the Stamp and Territorial Imposts would not, in all probability, take place--as it has been found, that, by pursuing the economic system, already adopted, the resources of the kingdom were fully adequate to all its exigencies; and the sale of the royal property, which had been made, would suffice for the deficiencies between the receipts and expenditures of the nation.
That, as we have already published, the Prussian army had entered the territories of the Republic; that the army had, at that time, assisted the Stadtholder in taking possession of the province of Utrecht. And, with respect to the motives, it is conjectured that the measures taken by the Prussian army were not unknown to the neighboring Courts, who, probably, might wish to see the dissenting Provinces compelled to agree to the plan of accommodation proposed and agreed on by four of the Provinces, which make the majority of the Dutch Union. In consequence of the measures taken, the Province of Holland, it was expected, would soon accept of the proffered mediation.
Yesterday arrived the ship Montgomery, Captain Bunyan, in seven weeks from London. By this ship we have no later papers than were already received by the late arrival from Bristol.
John Miller, Esq. of this city, Merchant, and Mr. Seton, son of William Seton, Esq. came passengers in the Montgomery.
By the Montgomery we are informed of the arrival of the Carteret packet, Capt. Newman, from this port, at Falmouth, about the 19th Sept.
Capt. Bunyan, off Falmouth, on the 29th Sept. spoke the Grantham packet, Capt. Bull, from this port, for Falmouth, then 22 days out.
Capt. Bunyan also spoke, on the 13th Oct. the ship Prince George, Capt. Strong, from this port, for London, lat. 45, 43 N. long. 32, 55 W. 20 days out, all well.
A Baltimore paper, of Nov. 6, mentions, that the Assembly of the State of Franklin had been specially called, by the Governor and Council, in order to take into consideration the hostile behavior of his Catholic Majesty's subjects in the Floridas and Louisiana; and that, in consequence, the Assembly have passed a Law to enlist 1500 men for three years, to be in readiness this month. That they are to be joined by 500 men from the Cumberland Settlement, who are to proceed immediately against the Spaniards; and that they had received a supply of arms and ammunition, from Charleston, before the Law passed.
The following Gentlemen are appointed into office, in the State of Vermont, for the year ensuing:--
His Excellency Thomas Chittenden, Esq. Governor.
His Honor Joseph Marsh, Esq. Lieutenant-Governor.
The Honorable Samuel Safford, John Strong, Thomas Porter, Thomas Murdock, Jacob Bailey, Timothy Brownson, Peter Olcott, Samuel Fletcher, Ebenezer Walbridge, Jonathan Hunt, Isaac Tichenor, and John Fallett, Esqrs. Counsellors.
Joseph Fay, Esq. Secretary.
The Hon. Moses Robinson, Paul Spooner, and Nathaniel Niles, Esqrs. are appointed Judges of the Supreme Court.
The Hon. Gideon Olin, Esq. Speaker of the House.
Micah Townsend, Esq. Secretary.
Roswell Hopkins, Esq. Clerk.
A letter from Charleston, (S. C.) dated October 9, has the following laconic and agreeable paragraph--"this State WILL accede to the new Government; as WILL Georgia and N. Carolina."
A gentleman from Rhode Island informs us, that the general Assembly of that State sat last week at South-Kington, and adjourned, without taking any procedure on the new Constitution--offering as a reason therefor, that it had already got to the people through the channels of newspapers, &c. and that the people might consider it as they thought best--and if they pleased to, might adopt it. Is this conduct suited to the dignity of the Legislature of a sovereign State? Or is it the "loose" proceeding of a time-serving assembly of mobmen?-- O shame where is thy blush!
Died, on the 14th Oct. at Waccamaw, in South-Carolina, Dr. James Gilchrist, a young gentleman, whose pleasing appearance and fine accomplishments endeared him to all his acquaintance. While yet very young, he obtained a commission in the continental army, and distinguished himself by a coolness and bravery above his years. Before the close of the war, he relinquished the military profession, entered with equal ardor on the study of physic, and in a few years obtained a degree. Soon after this, the activity of his disposition prompted him to accept of the appointment of Surgeon to the Empress of China East-Indiaman, commanded by Capt. Green; and on his return from China, the Doctor went to that State, with an intent to practise;--but--the Angel of Death arrested him;--
The immortal soul soon left its frail abode, And soar'd sublimely to the realms of God.
For the Daily Advertiser.
"Those who cannot write, and those who can," "All rhyme, and scrawl, and scribble to a man."
THOUGH from the justness at all times of these lines of a poet, and their peculiar aptitude to the present times, no one can doubt their application; it may not be amiss among the present professional and undistinguished rage for authorities (which when grave, are always absurd, if too strained and remote to be believed, or too obvious and trite to be doubted) to add a second liable to neither objection.
Gladly they toil beneath the Statesman's pains, Give them but credit for a Statesman's brains, All would be deemed, e'en from the cradle fit To rule in politics as well as wit. The grave, the gay, the cobler and the dunce, Start up (God bless us!) Statesmen all at once.
Were it not for our present critical and important situation, admitted to be so by honest men on all sides, and which to deny, would be an insult on truth, common sense, and mankind; for it must appear so to all in some point of view or other; I should have declined the above invidious sarcasms and a comment upon them, which, whether just or not, will be displeasing to many of both parties; but which I deem absolutely necessary to the interest of truth and our common country: because, while the present mistakes, misrepresentations and scurrility prevail, and are exulted in, a true estimate and decision cannot be attained, because truth and right are not only eclipsed, but absolutely hidden and lost amidst this inundation of error. In such a state not an argument, but of passion and party finds access; for, from such a scene, men of delicacy, judgment and philosophy, which are generally found together, will fly with horror: but should love of their country induce them to adventure, they would pass unheeded by and disregarded--Here then would be a worse political mob, than Athens ever was cursed with. For these men, capable of directing the mob, were compellable under the heaviest penalties, to take part in every cabal in the State, and the utility of the measure sufficiently justifies its establishment in their situation: but our's is a different and superior lot, exhibiting other prospects, other dangers, and consequently requiring other remedies. We aspire, and with reason, to be a nation of statesmen. Unhappily we anticipate the course of nature, and suppose ourselves what it will require ages to make us, or even a majority of us, consummate politicians as well as freemen. Remote as is the prospect, and ideal as it is deemed by most of the old world, I still trust to see them reconciled, and already in idea behold them both carried to the utmost human perfection in this country. Am I asked how? I answer by means of the Press and this new Constitution; for so far from being inimical, I see them the best of friends--and did I not, I should be the first to condemn the latter.--The weakness and intemperance with which the contrary opinion is maintained, convince me of the safety of the former:--But of this by the by--for the present let me advert to a source of greater danger and inconvenience to the press and community, as well as to the cause they intend to advocate--and that is this very cloud of illiberal, indiscriminate and total reprobation of this new form of Government. Well grounded objections (if any) will thus be discouraged or overlooked, if made; while the friends to the Constitution will too probably, with equal silence and perhaps justice, pass over the one as the other. And truly I cannot account for the silence of so many moderate men and worthy patriots; but from this prostitution of party talents, and prostration of all justice and candor--and surely this affords but too good an apology.
From this grievance it is my object, in some measure, to relieve the public; persuaded that, with my small abilities, I cannot, at this juncture, render them a more essential service; and hoping that, as a mere private citizen, who has equal prospects and advantages under all the Constitutions, because he has none under any, he will be the more readily forgiven, as he certainly deserves to be. His task he will attempt, not so much with ridicule, generally unsavory and often hurtful to best cause (indeed more likely to such than any other) as by a candid statement and stricture on such parts of the many compositions that have appeared, as appear to merit it, and can be recollected: for, tho' I have read every thing which has appeared on this important subject in this city (and which I believe includes almost every thing) with the utmost impartiality, that the above described situation admits, I have not the Herculean resolution of revising such a disgusting chaos as most of them present; and from this, as well as a desire of avoiding the intrusion of partiality, have declined giving any of them above one attentive reading. Nothing, however, shall be remarked on, but what has made a distinct impression; and will, in the manner it is introduced, have a clear recollection in minds of all the attentive and impartial, who have had, and embraced, the like opportunities of satisfying a mind, anxious after truth alone.
To begin with what has been the real or pretended ground of most of the observations against the Constitution, Mr. Wilson's address, candor (as far as recollection serves, and I speak from nothing else) must confess that it is worthy of neither the object, the occasion, nor the speaker; unless we suppose it, as it in fact appears to have been, an extemporaneous harangue, to a few particular friends, intended more as a sample of oratory than of logic; and which their partiality for the man led them to imagine worthy of an use for which it was never designed--a logical, written defence and recommendation of the new Constitution. But has it produced better logic in answer? I fear not; but rather that his radical errors, like the nightly meteor, have, according to the nature of things, added to, and been surpassed by, their fruitless wanderings. But let us, for the present, confine ourselves to the detection and true estimate of this deluding star, and then pursue our course, with double certainty and double vigilance.
For error on error, whether the latter be on the same or opposite side to the former, is not otherwise to be rectified.
The introductory observation of Mr. Wilson is the only one that comes within the above description, and it, with the animadversions upon it, justly do; tho' one part of his antithesis (and, what candor must be loth to suspect, this the material one) is certainly true: so that we have the consolation of having been amused with endless refutations and remarks on what, tho' false, is perfectly immaterial to the merits or demerits of the Constitution before us; unless indeed, if what Mr. Wilson here tells us, about the nature of our State Governments, be true; and what his antagonists, rather than lose the shadow of an argument, tho' a real one is lost by it, have admitted, nay affirmed, to be true; unless, I say, it is in contemplation soon to alter and accommodate to circumstances, our State Govern-
ments also, as most if not all the States have just reason to alter them if they have been thus used: for it is impossible that Constitutions framed at the time, and under the circumstances they were, should not need an alteration.
To what lengths and absurdities will not the fervor of altercation carry unhappy mortals? It has been observed that men, predeterminedly setting out on the most contrary principles, have insensibly or unavoidably fallen into the same conclusions at last. If this has happened, with respect to the ultimate destination of the doctrines of party zealots, much more frequent, and more at the expence of truth, will be their herding together in hotels by the way, for mutual convenience, and from mutual confidence and security, as to the great object of their pursuit; and without having recourse to some of the foregoing principles, it must be difficult, if not impossible, to account how both or either party should assent to so strange a position, as that of Mr. Wilson, concerning our State Governments, "that whatever is not reserved is given" to the rulers. This is at once telling us, either that "all power is not derived from the people," or that notwithstanding our boasted privileges and extravagant love of independence, we have been already usurped upon and divested of our just and natural rights by force; for this includes every mode of attaining power, but by general consent, the only legal one, and that no otherwise than as recognised by the Constitution. Whatever is not surrendered by this, is retained, and we cannot be deprived of it, but by a violence, which would well deserve to be taught, that Vox Populi Vox Dei est ; and that neither is to be imposed upon with impunity.
If any thing could be clearer than this principle, I would endeavor to illustrate it, and perhaps the following might then have some effect; that as the stream is derived from and dependent on its fountain, the latter can never be destroyed or greatly depressed without violence of some kind or other, and without drawing after its injury or ruin that of its offspring. But it is as impossible to add light to that which has attained the summit of brightness or evidence, as it is to increase the blackness of that which has received the utmost tinge of darkness. I will, therefore, desist from so wild an undertaking, by accounting for its having been denied.
The candid and discerning will not need to be told, that all the mistakes on this subject have arisen from too partial a view of the subject. The objectors to Mr. Wilson, instead of taking up this important rule of construction upon its own genuine principles, have diverted our attention to particular clauses in Mr. Wilson's harangue, in the old and new Federal Government, and other more remote and trifling objects; contenting themselves with general assertions of what, from its importance, as well as singularity to the eye of unbiassed reason, well required the most unequivocal demonstration.
A desire of security and certainty, induces men in all their transactions, to stipulate many things which are by no means absolutely necessary. This is more frequently practised in affairs of moment, length and intricacy, where, from the nature of language, there will be many general clauses which require modifications, that otherwise never would have been thought of. These two obvious reflections sufficiently answer every argument of the nature above-mentioned, which are the only ones of the objectors to the new Government to that point. Thus do we find the explicitness, caution and prudence of the Convention, relied upon as fatal to a system, which was never exceeded in any of those respects, as must appear from their being made the chief proofs of the want of them.
What cannot prejudice convert to its own purposes? Take for another example, and as a recurrence to what I promised near the beginning about the safety of the press, the two following and only attempts (except general declamation of which all are capable) to call it in question; the former of which appeared a considerable time since, and is grounded on that clause of the eighth section, which gives Congress the power "to promote the progress of science and useful arts, by securing for limited times to authors and inventors, the exclusive right to their respective writings and discoveries."
The latter is of a birth so late as the first appearance of Cincinnati, and has its weighty foundation in the second clause from the other. This enables Congress "to define and punish piracies and felonies committed on the high seas, and offences against the law of nations."
Had I not already twice mentioned the objections which are raised to these paragraphs, and perhaps as it is, I might venture any wager, that not one out of fifty of any common understanding, can persuade himself that such an inference has ever been drawn by a rational man, much less by a public writer against the Convention; that he would sooner suspect any other, or a y

thing than the fact; that it must have been quoted by the opposite party for a directly contrary purpose. But unluckily, neither this nor almost any other part of the Constitution, has been produced in its defence, and what may seem strange to the illiterate, and to them only, its advocates seem less zealous and assuming, with the most express and unanimous approbation of near half a hundred patriots, and the concurrence of all America on their side, than its opponents with arguments like those which have been noticed.
It may be asked, if such the prospects and inequality, why this anxiety in you? I answer, that for our honor and interest, as well as that of the world (unhappily beyond the views of individuals too little regarded) the subject may have as cool, disinterested and discreet an examination, and as peaceable and unanimous a determination as the subject admits, and our situation requires.

A CAUTION to OWNERS and MASTERS of VESSELS, THAT they beware of signing which is made of Holland yarn; for it is made in great quanti- ties and exposed to sale, to the hurt of the buyer. It is of such a base quality, that it is not sufficient for cables or rigging of any kind: it is spun and dressed off in such a manner, as makes it difficult for the buyer to know it from the best rope. In order to try its evil quality, let the buyer take a few yards of the fag end of the rope, and open them into hemp, and if it prove to be short tow, you may take it for granted to be Holland yarn; which is spun so short tow and refuse of the hemp, that is manufactured in- to sail-cloth in Holland. N. B. If it should be enquired who are the pro- moters of this caution, be it known that we are a com- pany of rope-makers, who think it too tedious to insert our names here. 6t New-York, Nov. 8.

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 wire 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 shuts: the differ- ence, 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, boiler for tallow-chandlers and sugar-works, stoves for sugar-bakers, mill-cases, cast bars for su- gar-works and distilleries, 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 decor- ated 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 that toasts and boils the meat, bakes the bread; mill rounds and gudgeons, law-mill cranks, calcining plates for making pearl ashes, cast iron screws for fulling and paper-mills, fullers plates cast to any fire that may be wanted, fash-weighs, forge- hammers and anvils, plow-plates, half-hundreds, 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. Alice's Foundry, or leave them at the house of PETER T.
