PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 21. The Centinel, one of our correspondents observes, after the insult of the General and our President in his first number, and after having he was sensible he had trespassed on the honest feelings of the people, repeats his insinuation, that General Washington was not equal to the duty of a member of Convention. This must be an enemy's Centinel indeed. Have not the advantage of a liberal education, a seat in the first Congress, the command of an army of the most enlightened sons of liberty on earth, and all the various scenes the General has gone through, have not these, I say, given him so much knowledge of what concerns the liberty of his country, as to qualify him for the duty to which the Legislature of Virginia, and the voice of all America, called him. Can the subject of Government be new to a man of his reflection, his reading, and his opportunities. Let his countrymen look at his farewell letter. 'Tis worth their READING AGAIN. Few of us have weighed its merit. It shows a deep knowledge of the subject, and a view of our present situation, that in a less enlightened time would give it the reputation of an inspired Prophecy.
New-York, Nov. 6.
Extracts from the JOURNAL of CONGRESS. Monday, October 22, 1787.

[The commissions for the Secretary and Judges are nearly similar with the foregoing.]
For the Daily Advertiser.
MR. CHILDS,
A Writer in the New-York Packet, under the signature of Astyanax, has taken in a very serious light a ludicrous performance of another who signs himself Paulus. I highly disapprove of ridicule being employed in religious controversy, or by the Ministers of religion against one another; and I hope that the Clergy are not engaged in these publications. If any gentleman, who heard the exceptionable sermon at St. Paul's, had chosen to make public the bigotry and narrowness of mind discovered by the preacher, it would probably have been a more effectual method, to have selected the weak and imprudent expressions, and arranging them together without any ridiculous comment, to have left the reader to his own reflections. The public mind is so much enlightened, that bigotry and illiberality of sentiment, naked and unvarnished will sufficiently provoke resentment, or produce contempt. A man can hardly appear in a more disadvantageous light than by confining piety and virtue to his own sect, by assuming arrogant and superior airs, or by pleading the divine and exclusive right of Episcopacy, or any other of the regular modes of ecclesiastical government. In my opinion, and I believe in the general opinion, none of the combatants in this ludicrous business have yet acquired much honor to themselves, or their party; and every moderate and good man hopes that they will be contented with what they have lost, and cease from the contest. Let me however give an advice to both parties.
The Episcopalians, from habit, are in danger of using some imprudent expressions in their ordination-sermons, and of assuming an appearance of bigotry. The Presbyterians, confident of their numbers, are apt to treat these indiscretions with too much asperity. The one, in self-defence, should become more liberal, because the people are too well informed to approve it; the other should avoid any public strictures, assured that religious denominations only expose themselves to hatred, and hasten their own decline, by such illiberality. All will most successfully promote their real interests by cultivating the spirit of meekness and charity, and extending the influence of true religion. In this free country, those will flourish most, who unite the greatest knowledge with the greatest piety.
As Astyanax appears to be a cool and modest writer on the subject, let me inform him, that the church of Scotland and of Holland, perfectly agree with the church of England, that ordination ought to be performed by Bishops. The only dispute between them is, whether these Bishops ought to be Diocesan or Parochial. Upon that controversy, I am not now about to enter. I will never see it called up in a Gazette. It is more for the comfort and improvement of all denominations to let it sleep in oblivion, to give mutual indulgence, and exercise mutual forbearance, and charitably to hope that in all there may be the ministers of truth and piety.
Let me advise Astyanax and his friends to avoid the affectation of denying the power and office of Bishops, to clergymen; because they may have each only one church, subject to his immediate inspection; of designating Presbyterian churches, by the name of Meeting-houses; or of arrogating exclusive titles and honors to themselves. Let me further advise them, to check, as far as may be, the petulance, and illiberality, of their younger, and less experienced preachers, in treating on the subjects of difference that exist between them, and their neighbouring churches. AENEAS.
I BEG that the Public would condescend to observe, that Mr. Paul Jones wants to bring to a decision, by news-papers, an affair of honor with me, which might have been terminated, as promised, in Holland, in the year 1779, had he been willing; and had he not, to avoid it then, impeached me with the fallacious charges he has mentioned:—that they may consider his advantages and artful way of writing against a man born a foreigner, not conversant with the language, candid, and unacquainted with the laws, by which he may be entrapped for some unwary expressions:—that he is not ignorant of my numberless enemies:—that I have in that description, as may appear by the first part of my memorial, his Excellency Benjamin Franklin, and, of course, his party; and, by the second part, the Hon. Arthur Lee, Esq. and likewise his party; whose partisans, of both sides, make the major part of the gentlemen in office in America:—that I wrote a memorial, dated March 25th, 1782, to the Hon. Congress, in which I complained highly of the treatment I had received, in the offices of the Superintendent of Finances, and in that of Mr. Milligan; and tho', by influence against me, the report of the Committee, who examined it, was rejected, I have some reasons to think that these gentlemen bear me no good will:—that the Hon. Rufus King, Esq. who was Chairman of a Committee to report on my memorial, dated the 31st July, 1786, to Congress, told me several times in
private, that my claims were just; but if I would claim the interest of the sums owing to me, for pay, subsistence and advanced money, only from the time I was out of service, he would himself make the report, and the other gentlemen of the Committee would assent to it; it would undoubtedly pass in Congress, and I would receive, according to my claim, all in ready money; nevertheless, after I had consented to the great sacrifice of the said interest, for all the time I was in service, he told me I could not be paid several sums in ready money, but in certificates, tho' the same sums were granted and acknowledged to be at my credit on account current (which means, I am sensible, to be paid me when I would call for it) by an official letter of the Superintendent of Finances, corroborated by a resolve of Congress on the 6th March, 1782, which approved the steps the Superintendent of Finance had taken, with respect to my accounts: he deducted likewise a year and a half interest on the gratuity promised me for bringing a cargo of ammunition to America. I begged of him as a favor to be admitted before the Committee, where being, he wanted to put advanced money in Europe to be paid in certificates, particularly the balance of my expenses above the sums I had received to bear them, when ordered to remain in Paris by his Excellency Benjamin Franklin; but the other gentlemen thought and agreed it should be paid in ready money; but Mr. King took a paper and wrote the report whilst the other gentlemen went to Congress, which report gave ground to a Resolve the 2d June, 1783, by which a law made, by a resolve in the year 1783, to pay officers (in other cases than mine) in certificates, retrospotted and annihilated two resolves, favorable to my undeniable demands, passed in 1778 and 1781; by which the amount of my whole pay, and above, being 1814 dollars (allowed, as said before, to be paid me in ready money) should be paid in certificates, and which I must totally lose, having no hope of redress, as I have since repeated my claim unsuccessfully, and am unwilling to assent to such change in the payment:—that Mr. Paul Jones, by influence, had been sent to Europe (without my knowledge) and kept and enjoyed, since two years, twelve thousand hard dollars of our prize money which he received there; and tho' he then remitted the remnant of it to the American Minister in France, by the influence of my enemies here, and particularly in the Treasury Board, I, on the contrary, altho' I have claimed my share of that money of that Hon. Board, and represented to them that my share was distinct from the rest of the crew, it being two ninetieths of that money, I have never received a farthing of it, and I don't know whether, by the preponderance of those enemies, I shall ever receive any; which case makes me shorter of money than Mr. Jones, to bear the expenses of the press:—that, by the by-words of my enemies in all the companies I am not known to, which is the greatest part, keeping within a small circle of a few friends, I must have all disadvantages.
I have made these observations, amongst a great many others, to keep the honest, whose approbation only I wish for, upon their guard; I may say, on the whole, if the comparison of rational beings and brutes can be admitted, that I have been as unmercifully used by my enemies, as a country dog is when in town, helpless in the middle of a multitude of the city ones, by whom at last, he is torn to pieces.

New-York, 1st Nov. 1787.
AS there is a letter, in yesterday's Daily Advertiser, of Mr. Milligan, about what happened the 26th ult. between me and Mr. Paul Jones, I beg, as a favor and as a justice, of Mr. Viner Van Zandt, to be so kind as to have his declaration, which he made loudly of his own accord in presence of a great many gentlemen, in the Coffee-House, on the 30th ult. printed in this paper, at my own cost; as these news-papers will circulate and go in this and foreign countries. I would take it as a further act of his kindness and justice to give me in writing, certified by him, said declaration.

New-York, Nov. 2, 1787.
State of Massachusetts Bay.
In the year of our Lord, one thousand seven hundred and seventy-eight.
An Act for naturalizing Peter Landais, Esq.
WHEREAS Peter Landais, Esq. late of St. Maloes, in the kingdom of France, has left his native country, and has generously and gallantly taken a part with the friends of America, in opposition to the cruel efforts of Great-Britain to subjugate the inhabitants of these United States to its tyrannical authority: And whereas it is just to reward such persons, who have thus voluntarily taken a part in our defence, and expedient to encourage such well-disposed foreigners to join themselves to us:
Be it enacted by the Council and House of Representatives in General Court assembled, and by the authority of the same, that, upon the taking and subscribing the
oath of allegiance, appointed by an Act made in the year of our Lord 1777, entitled, "An Act for prescribing and establishing an oath of fidelity and allegiance," by the said Peter Landais, he the said Peter Landais shall, from the time of taking and subscribing the said oath before any two of the Members of the Council of this State, be deemed, adjudged and taken to be a natural subject of this State, to all intents, constructions and purposes, as if he the said Peter Landais had been born within this State, and had continued and dwelt therein from the time of his birth, and been here abiding on the fourth day of July, in the year of our Lord 1776, and had at that time, and ever since, taken a part with and been aiding the inhabitants of this State in defence of their liberties.
And be it further enacted by the authority aforesaid, that if the said Peter Landais shall take and subscribe the oath aforesaid, before any two of the Council of this State, the persons, before whom he shall take and subscribe the said oath, shall make return thereof to the Secretary, who shall record the same in a book to be kept among the public records of this State, for the purpose of recording the names of such foreigners, as shall be hereafter naturalized by Acts of this State.
In the House of Representatives, Oct. 13th, 1778.
THIS Bill having been read three several times, passed to be enacted.
Sent up for concurrence.
John Pickering, Speaker.
In Council, Oct. 14th, 1778.
THIS Bill having had two several readings, passed to be enacted.
John Avery, Dep. Sec.
Consented to by the major part of the Council. True Copy.
Attest. John Avery, Dep. Sec.
I HAVE had the copy of the act of my naturalization printed above, in order to justify my claiming, as I do claim, hereby, the protection, not only as a man of honor, but also as an American, consistently to the said act, of the impartial Public, if they judge my future complaints just; as, I am satisfied that I have proved, by my conduct's justifying memorial, that I served you, Americans, as Captain of the Heureux; and after as Capt. of the United States Frigate Alliance, sedulously and successfully towards making this a separate, distinguished and glorious nation of Freemen: now being one of the number, whilst the free press offers me the only resource to shew that I desire and will maintain a Freeman's right, I am going to expose to your judgment, in future newspapers, acts of at least aristocratical oppression, which have been exercised against me: I have great many artful and powerful enemies; but great is the truth, and mighty above all things, and candidness will always please the honest, which will be my only part, if I can be intelligible enough to be understood.

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 Manufactory 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 mixt 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, boilers for tallow-chandlers and sugar-works, stoves for sugar-bakers, mill-cakes, cast bars for tin- gar-works and distilleries, rollers and shears for tin- ting-mills, chimney-backs, hearth and jamb plates, cast agreeable to any pattern that may be lent; close stoves for work-shops, Franklin stoves nearly deco- rated with carved work, Bath stove-grates elegantly ornamented with carvings, ship's caboucs or the new construction, with base or ens in them, in which the same fire that roasts and boils the meat, bakes the bread, mill rounds and puddgeons, saw-mill cranks, calcining plates for making pearl ashes, cast iron terrews or hulline and paper-mills, flutes plus scast to any fire that may be wanted, fish-weirs, forge- hammers and anvils, plow-plates, half-but-dies, 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, can agreeable to pattern at patterns, will please to send their patterns and orders to the FURNACE, near Mr. Alice's Brewery, to have them at the house of PETER T.
