REPORT
Of Mr. JEFFERSON, when Secretary of State, on Commerce and Navigation, made in 1793.
(Concluded.)
The following principles, being founded in reciprocity, appear perfectly just, and to offer no cause of complaint to any nation.
1st. Where a nation imposes high duties on our productions, or prohibits them altogether, it may be proper for us to do the same by theirs, first burdening or excluding those productions which they bring here, in competition with our own of the same kind; selecting next such manufactures as we take from them in greatest quantity, & which at the same time we could the soonest furnish to ourselves, or obtain from other countries; imposing on them duties, lighter at first, but heavier and heavier afterwards, as other channels of supply open. Such duties having the effect of indirect encouragement to domestic manufactures of the same kind, may induce the manufacturer to come himself into these states, where cheaper subsistence, equal laws, and a vent of his wares, free of duty, may ensure him the highest profits from his skill and industry. And here it would be in the power of the state governments to co-operate essentially, by opening the resources of encouragement which are under their control, extending them liberally to arts in those particular branches of manufacture, for which their soil, climate, population, and other circumstances have matured them, and fostering the precious efforts and progress of household manufacture by some patronage suited to the nature of its objects, guided by the local informations they possess and guarded against abuse by their presence and attentions. The oppressions on our agriculture in foreign ports would thus be made the occasion of relieving it from a dependence on the councils and conduct of others, and of promoting arts, manufactures and population at home.
2d. Where a nation refuses permission to our merchants and factors to reside within certain parts of their dominions, we may, if it should be thought expedient, refuse residence to theirs in any and every part of ours, or modify their transactions.
3d. Where a nation refuses to receive in our vessels any productions but our own, we may refuse to receive, in theirs, any but their own productions. The first and second clauses of the bill reported by the committee, are well formed to effect this object.
4th. Where a nation refuses to consider any vessel as ours, which has not been built within our territories, we should refuse to consider as theirs, any vessel not built within their territories.
5th. Where a nation refuses to our vessels the carriage even of our own productions, to certain countries under their dominion, we might refuse to theirs, of every description, the carriage of the same productions to the same countries. But as justice and good neighbourhood would dictate, that those who have no part in imposing the restriction on us, should not be the victims of measures adopted to defeat its effect, it may be proper to confine the restriction to vessels owned or navigated by any subjects of the same dominant power, other than the inhabitants of the country to which the said productions are to be carried. And to prevent all inconvenience to the said inhabitants, and to our own, by too sudden a check on the means of transportation, we may continue to admit the vessels marked for future exclusion, on an advanced tonnage, and for such length of time only, as may be supposed necessary to provide against that inconvenience.
The establishment of some of these principles by Great-Britain alone, has already lost us in our commerce with that country and its possessions, between eight and nine hundred vessels of near 40,000 tons burthen, according to statements from official materials, in which they
have confidence. This involves a proportional loss of seamen, ship-wrights and ship-building, and is too serious a loss to admit forbearance of some effectual remedy.
It is true we must expect some inconvenience in practice, from the establishment of discriminating duties. But in this, as in so many other cases, we are left to choose between two evils. These inconveniences are nothing, when weighed against the loss of wealth, and loss of force, which will follow our perseverance in the plan of indiscrimination. When once it shall be perceived that we are either in the system, or the habit of giving equal advantages to those who extinguish our commerce and navigation, by duties and prohibitions, as to those who treat both with liberality and justice, liberality and justice will be converted by all into duties and prohibitions. It is not to the moderation and justice of others, we are to trust for a fair and equal access to market with our productions, or for our due share in the transportation of them; but to our own means of independence, and the firm will to use them. Nor do the inconveniences of discrimination merit consideration. Not one of the nations before mentioned, perhaps not a commercial nation on earth, is without them. In our case, one distinction alone will suffice, that is to say, between nations who favor our productions and navigation, and those who do not favor them. One set of moderate duties, say the present duties, for the first, and a fixed advance on these, as to some articles, and prohibitions as to others, for the last.
Still it must be repeated that friendly arrangements are preferable with all who will come into them; and that we should carry into such arrangements all the liberality and spirit of accommodation, which the nature of the case will admit.
France has, of her own accord proposed negotiations for improving, by a new treaty, on fair and equal principles, the commercial relations of the two countries. But her internal disturbances have hitherto prevented the prosecution of them to effect, though we have had repeated assurances of a continuance of the disposition.
Proposals of friendly arrangement have been made on our part, by the present government, to that of Great-Britain, as the message states: but, being already on as good a footing in law, and a better in fact, than the most favored nation, they have not as yet, discovered any disposition to have it meddled with.
We have no reason to conclude that friendly arrangements would be declined by the other nations, with whom we have such commercial intercourse as may render them important. In the mean while, it would rest with the wisdom of Congress to determine whether, as to those nations, they will not surcease export regulations on the reasonable presumption that they will concur in doing whatever justice and moderation dictate should be done.
TH: JEFFERSON.
ORIGINAL ANECDOTE
Of professor Junker, of the University of Hull.
[FROM A BRITISH MAGAZINE 1801.]
Many, who were personally acquainted with this celebrated character, have frequently heard him relate the following anecdote.
Being Professor of Anatomy, he had once for dissection, bodies of two criminals who had been hanged. The key of the dissecting room not being immediately at hand when they were carried to him, he ordered them to be laid down in a closet which opened into his own apartment: the evening came and Junker, according to custom, proceeded to resume his literary labours, before he retired to rest. It was now near midnight, and all his family were asleep, when he heard a rumbling noise in his closet; thinking that by some mistake, the cat had been shut up with the dead bodies, he rose and taking the candle, went to see what had happened. But what must have been his astonishment, or rather his panic on perceiving the sack, which contained the two bodies, was rent in the middle; he approached, and found one of them was gone! The doors and windows were well secured, and he thought it impossible the bodies could be stolen, he tremblingly looked round the closet, and observed the dead man seated in the corner. Junker stood, for a moment motionless; the dead man seemed to look towards him; he both moved to the right and the left, but the dead man still kept his eyes upon him. The
Professor retired, stepped back, with his eyes still fixed upon the object of his alarm; and holding the candle in his hand until he reached the door the dead man instantly started up and followed him. A figure of so hideous an appearance, naked and in motion, the lateness of the hour, the deep silence which prevailed, every thing concurred to overwhelm him with confusion. He let fall the only candle he had burning, and all was darkness; he made his escape to his bed chamber, and threw himself on the bed; thither however, he was pursued, and he soon felt the dead man embracing his legs, and loudly sobbing. Repeated cries of "leave me! leave me!" released Junker from the grasp of the dead man who now exclaimed "Ah! good executioner! have mercy upon me!" Junker soon perceived the cause of what had happened, and resuming his fortitude, informed the sufferer who he really was, and made a motion in order to call up some of his family. "you will then to destroy me," exclaimed the criminal; "if you call any one, my adventure will become public, and I shall be taken a second time and executed. In the name of humanity I implore you to save my life." The physician struck a light, decorated his guest with an old nightgown, and, having made him take a cordial, requested to know what had brought him to the gibbet? The poor wretch informed him, that he had enlisted for a soldier, but that having no attachment to the profession he had determined to desert; that he had unfortunately entrusted his secret to a kind of crimp, a fellow of no principle, recommended him to a woman, in whose house he was to remain concealed; that this woman had discovered his retreat to the officer of police, &c. &c. Junker was extremely perplexed how to save the poor man; it was impossible to retain him in his own house and keep the affair a secret; and to turn him out of doors, was to expose him to certain destruction; he resolved to conduct him out of the city, in order that he might get into a foreign jurisdiction; but it was necessary to pass the gates of the city, which were strictly guarded; to accomplish this point, he dressed the man in some of his old clothes, covered him with a cloak, and at an early hour set out for the country, with his protege behind him. On arriving at the city gate, where he was well known, he said, in a hurried tone, that he had been sent for to visit a sick person, who was dying in the suburbs. He was permitted to pass. Having both got into the open fields, the deserter threw himself at the feet of his deliverer, to whom he vowed eternal gratitude; and, after receiving some pecuniary assistance, departed, offering up prayers for his happiness. Twelve years after, Junker having occasion to go to Amsterdam, was accosted on the exchange by a man well dressed, and of the best appearance, who, he had been informed, was one of the most respectable merchants of that city. The merchant, in a polite tone inquired if he was not Professor Junker of Hull; and on being answered in the affirmative, he requested in an earnest manner, his company to dinner, the Professor consented. Having reached the merchant's house, he was shown into an elegant apartment, where he found a beautiful wife and two fine healthy children; but he could scarcely suppress his astonishment at meeting with so cordial reception from a family, with whom he thought he was entirely unacquainted. After dinner, the merchant taking him in his counting room, said, you do not recollect me? not at all; but I well recollect you, and never shall your features be erased from my memory. You are my benefactor. I am the person who came to life in your closet, and to whom you paid so much attention. On parting from you, I took the road to Holland. I wrote a good hand, was considerably expert at accounts, and I soon obtained employment as a clerk. My good conduct, and zeal for the interests of my patron, procured me his confidence, and his daughter's love. On his retiring from business, I succeeded him, and became his son-in-law; but for you, however, I should not have lived to experience these enjoyments. Henceforth, look upon my house, my fortune, and myself at your disposal. Those who possess the smallest portion of sensibility, can easily represent to themselves the feelings of Junker.
JOHN MINCHIN, BOOT-MAKER, (From Philadelphia)
New-Jersey Avenue near the Capitol. Two Apprentices wanted.
LEXINGTON, Nov. 20. A subscriber has furnished us with the following report of Mr. John Young, who was sent by the committee of the South Elkhorn Association of Baptists, as a Missionary to the Indians.
Ottawa Town,
Nov. 4th, 1801.
Met the chiefs and friends of the Shawanese tribe of Indians in council; after reading the letters from the committee of the South Elkhorn Association, and governor St. Clair—the nature of the business being opened, by John Young, missionary, Stephen Ruddle, interpreter—the letters and wampom from the committee being received, the chiefs proceeded to business of consultation.
THE SPEECH.
Delivered the 2d day of the Council, by the Chief, Black Hoo.
BROTHERS,
We have taken into consideration your letter to us, and have come to a resolution, that we be no more two people, but that we live as brothers, even as one people—that the white people and red people may be the same as one body, or as two good brothers, loving each other, and to remain so forever. We wish that the young brothers of the white people and red people may always live as brothers; that they may never seek to take the advantage of each other, nor break the peace of themselves or their fathers.
In answer to Gov. St. Clair's letter.
As we wish to live in love and peace with all our brothers, we hope the Great Spirit will direct us to take our brother's advice, as he calls us sons or children of love.
Answer continued to Committee.
And now brothers we have concluded to tell you our minds about your kindness in sending your letter and friends Young and Ruddle, to tell us good things about the Great Spirit above. Now brothers, we have come to a conclusion among ourselves, that we are glad that our white brothers have tho't of us at last; you have distressed your red brothers in times past, in driving us from town to town; but we hope the Great Spirit hath learnt you peace and great good things. We tell you that we gladly receive the brothers you sent, and we hope that the Great Spirit is bringing the time when the red brothers and white brothers will be as one, in knowing these great things that our white brothers tell us about—and we hope that our white brothers will continue their love to their red brothers, and send us the things you learn of the Great Spirit. We are glad—very glad, for the things you have told us—our brother you have sent, told us yesterday good things about loving the Great Spirit, and loving our brothers; that we are all sure to die, and that all people must know the love of the Great Spirit, and Jesus Christ, that he has sent, and love their brothers, or they can't go to the Good Spirit, and happy place he has for his people. The brother told us, that the Good Spirit made us all of the same flesh; and that he did not wish to give land or money to the white brothers. He says all he wants is the happiness of our souls when we die, for us to know the love of our maker. He tells us he will come once or twice a year, to tell us the things of the other world; and we thank him for comings, and bringing our friend to be his tongue. As you know these great things, brothers, we wish you to think about your red brothers, and try to learn us the singing or gospel, and the good things our brother has told us about these things our brother told us yesterday.
[Here the chief stopped his speech, and attended to an under chief who had his face fully impressed with the effects of spirituous liquors, who dictated as follows:]
But brothers, our belief is, that we are made by the same hand—that the same spirit has taught us a religion—You have a religion—we can't tell that ours is not as good as yours; but we are afraid that you will over-run our country, as you are a great people, but that must not break our friendship—we wish that to continue forever. Now brothers, we have given you this answer, being a few of the children of our nation now setting in council at this place. Now, our Kentucky brothers, as you tell us that all the red brothers are desired to hear the news from you, we shall let them all know what you say. We are somewhat unable to give a full answer, as we are so few in number. We are about sending to Congress, then we shall have a full council, and will say the bus-

ref. before all our brothers, and send you a full answer when concluded.
KENTUCKY LEGISLATURE.
SENATE, Saturday, Nov. 7.
Leave was given to bring in a bill for ascertaining the boundary line between this State and Tennessee.
Monday, Nov. 9.
The following address to the Governor, in answer to his communications to the General Assembly, was agreed to and ordered to be presented by a committee:
To his Excellency
JAMES GARRARD, ESQUIRE.
Governor of Kentucky.
SIR,
"We have received your Excellency's communication with pleasure. It is with satisfaction we view the harmony that exists in the United States:—We flatter ourselves that liberty and national prosperity are so permanently fixed, as not to be shaken by the enemies of our country."
"The rapid increase of population of this State must be pleasing to every citizen, and will not only make us wealthy, but respectable; but what is still to be more admired, and greater cause of triumph, is the rapid increase of knowledge among our citizens; civil and religious liberty are better understood, and the people becoming daily better acquainted with the rights of man."
"We think it unnecessary to reply singly to every part of your Excellency's communications; but be assured, Sir, we consider them as pertinent and proper, and will endeavour to attend to them as becomes the representatives of a free and enlightened people. Receive our thanks for the solicitude you discover for the good of our common country."
"ALEXANDER S. BULLITT,
"Speaker of the Senate."
On Wednesday the 23d of December next, will be offered to

To the highest bidder on the premises, "Blue Plains, and Addison's Good Will," containing near 300 acres.
It will be sold altogether or laid off in lots from 5 to 100 acres, to suit the purchasers. No land in the United States possesses such advantages. It is uncommonly healthy and has a great many springs of excellent water on it. It lies on the Potomac River for nearly two miles, within one of Alexandria, and four of the City of Washington, with a public Ferry to Alexandria, which is immensely valuable, and will be more so—This land is of the first quality, with its management, which is not the best, I have made off of it ten barrels of wheat, three bushels of corn, and two thousand pounds of tobacco to the acre. About 200 acres are in wood and timber. The whole there is a fishing landing, where upwards of one hundred thousand herrings, with other fish, such as shad, rock, perch, &c. are frequently caught at one haul, with a seine. There is every necessary building, good enough for any body to live in. A paled in yard and garden, an orchard of all kinds of the best grafted fruit—About 20 acres of meadow now in grass, and a great deal more may be made—200 acres of this land will now rent for from 1800 to 2250, and with a small expense it might be made to rent for a great deal more.
There is about 70 acres of wheat, and about 30 acres of rye, sowed on it. The purchase can be furnished with all kind of stock, horses, sheep, cattle, and hogs—also corn, hay, and fodder.
And on THURSDAY,
The 24th of December next, will be sold, to the highest bidder, at Mr. McLaughlin's tavern in George-Town—200 acres of land, lying on the east side of the Eastern Branch, about one mile from the city of Washington, it is chiefly in wood and timber. It will be sold together, or divided into lots from 5 to 20 acres. Also 206 acres on the west side and adjoining the Eastern Branch, two miles from the City of Washington. About half of this land is in wood and timber, chiefly chestnut, and about 15 or 20 acres of good meadow ground. Also a gristmill, with 42 and 50 bushel sets of stones, in wood on Rock Creek, a never-failing stream, about one mile from George-Town, and the same distance from the City of Washington. Also several lots in the City of Washington unimproved, and several in George-Town improved and unimproved.

Latest Foreign Intelligence.
By the ship George Barclay, Captain Breath, 36 days from Liverpool, Liverpool papers to the 19th Oct. and London papers to the 17th October, have been received; which furnish the following intelligence.
LONDON, Oct. 17.
Government have received an official intimation, by the last conveyance from France, of the appointment of Joseph Bonaparte to the office of Plenipotentiary, on the part of the French Government, to meet the Marquis Cornwallis at Amiens, in order to put the seal of form to the Treaty of Peace. Ministers from Madrid and the Hague are also to repair to the seat of Negotiation. This Congress is expected to sit only three or four days, the business to be arranged by its Members being little more than a matter of formality. The Marquis Cornwallis's instructions are preparing, and his Lordship, accompanied by Col. Littlehales, will set out for France in a day or two.
Mr. Hunter, the Messenger, failed from Dover on Wednesday for Calais with dispatches, announcing to the French Government the appointment of the Marquis Cornwallis as the Negotiator on the part of Great Britain.
The letters from Portsmouth, Plymouth, and Sheerness in our Naval Register, state, that several more ships of war are about to be paid off at those ports. The reduction of our forces will be gradual, so as to have the Peace Establishment completed shortly after the Ratification of the Definitive Treaty.
Mr. St. John, brother to Madame Otto, has left town for Paris, charged with his Majesty's Ratification of the Preliminaries of Peace. The Marquis Cornwallis is expected to set out this day or to-morrow for Amiens, where the Definitive Treaty will immediately be signed. The formal Proclamation of Peace will take place early in the month of November.
Report says, that the Duke De Liancourt is the person intended to be sent by Bonaparte to this country, as Ambassador from the French Republic. M. Otto, it is added, will be sent as Minister Plenipotentiary to America.
Citizen Vincent, sent by Toussaint L'Ouverture to bring the new Constitution of St. Domingo to France, arrived at Bourdeaux on the 30th September, and set out from that city to Paris on the 2d of October.
The Hamburg Mail due on Wednesday arrived this day; and we also received this morning Paris papers to the 14th inst. The latter inform us that the Diet at Ratisbon has at length delivered its Ultimatum, and that it is altogether in the spirit of the Vote of Austria.
The Hamburg Correspondent lately mentioned as the report in France, that the present Calendar was quickly to be exchanged for the old one. The present would be unadvisable to the new regulations respecting religion. Besides, being inconvenient in many respects, has been found to be very imperfect, as a scientific work. It is to be observed, that the French people love one day in seven better than one day in ten for a holiday, and very justly too. Nay, to little respect is shown to the Decadi, that nobody makes merry upon it, unless when it coincides with Sunday. So much are the French attached to the old style!
We are indebted to a mercantile gentleman for the following late Price Current, received by the ship George Barclay.
LIVERPOOL, October 20.
"On the 6th inst. we communicated to you the restoration of Peace, and have since deferred writing in the daily expectation of seeing commerce regain its wonted steadiness; we have to regret, however, that the same stupor which then existed, still continues to prevent our giving to you formal quotations, and we can therefore state merely the effects that have thus far been produced by this sudden and important change."
"Sugars have undergone generally a depreciation of 3 a 5s. per cwt. and at some late public sales, the purchasers were so backward, that considerable quantities were necessarily bought in by the broker. For coffee, we have not any demand whatever, nor can any prices be mentioned, but the export season being now so far advanced, we conceive they will break at a considerable reduction: In both these, however, as well as every other article of West-India produce, it is thought that the peace has happened at a favorable period, since the supplies of the last season have already been conveyed hither, and thereby made this country the depot to the Continent until the next spring, when foreign markets may be furnished more direct. Ruins, in which there had been considerable speculations, came down immediately 1s. a 2s. per gallon, & they are now in so unsettled a state that not any prices can be mentioned."
Cotton, it was expected would have
been the most materially affected, but notwithstanding that the enquiry was at first very earnest and general, there has been little actual demand, and it is now rather heavy: We may quote nominally—Georgia, Sea-Island, 2s. a 3s. Bowed 19d. a 20 1-2d. Pernambuco, 2s. 8d. a 2s. 11 1-2d. Marañham, 2s. 8d. a 2s. 9 1-2d. Dutch, 2s. 5d. a 2s. 9d. Barbadoes, 2s. 2d. a 2s. 3 1-2d. St. Domingo, 1s. 10d. a 2s. 3d. Common West-India, 1s. 10 1-2d. a 2s. 1 1-2d. New Orleans, 22d. a 23d. Carthagena, 22 1-2d. a 23d. Laguna, 18d. a 20d. Surat, 14d. a 17d.
Provender of every description is dull, & at our last Bounty Sales, superfine flour, of unobjectionable quality, went a 34s. a 35s.—fine a 20s. a 22s.—Rye do. 21s. a 22s.—Indian Meal 20s. a 22s. per Barrel.—Wheat has been sold a 10s. a 11s. per Bushel.—Indian Corn a 25s. a 27s. per Quarter.—Rice a 19s. a 20s. per Cwt.—which, as there is not any appearance of the Bounties being continued, must prove very ruinous Prices to the Proprietors—Asses, and Tobacco, and Deer Skins, remain unaltered.—Every species of timber has undergone a considerable depreciation.—and Naval stores are quite unfalsable."
SWITZERLAND.
BERN, September 10.
On Monday the 7th inst. at ten in the morning, the diet assembled at the town-house, in the hall formerly occupied by the foreign council.
Citizen Ruttiman, appointed temporary president of the executive council, opened the session by an address which excited the most lively attention.
"You are summoned," said he "to deliberate upon the plan of the constitution published on the 29th of May last. You have at length to establish a permanent order of things in the Helvetic republic. At this decisive moment every eye is fixed upon you. Your time is too precious to admit of my entering into a labored harangue. It is necessary to act, and to act with promptitude. In affairs of state, as in those of individuals, there are certain precious opportunities which must be instantly improved, or they are irrecoverably lost."
"At the commencement of the 14th century, the plant of liberty shot forth in Switzerland; may it still be seen to bloom at the commencement of the 19th. Time must have instructed us in many things. For three years we have trodden, as it were, on burning coals. Our liberty, primitively sprung from the forays of a nation of shepherds. Let us not forget our origin. Our country contains many more cottages than sumptuous palaces; and it is from the latter that slavery frequently traces its descent. Let us, however, beware on the other hand, of holding the arts and sciences in contempt. They enoble the human race; their mild influence inspires life and vigor, elevates man to a sense of his own dignity, and renders him truly free. Proceed—every revolution is a victory; the conqueror may act as a magnanimous hero; but let him not renounce his right."
"Commit no infringement of the rights of man, but proceed in the path of justice. It is justice only that can prevent the ruin of our morals; and a people without morals is already devoted to destruction. May the maxims of religion, the conviction of the existence of an Eternal Being, and the lessons of christianity, continue to transform us into better men and better citizens! Do not flatter the people, for flattery is the ruin of nations, as well as of kings. May the rigid economy to which Switzerland owes her happiness, re-appear among us. The maxims adapted to the conduct of individuals, are those which should also regulate the affairs of our petty state. Do not look so much to the revenue we may be able to raise, as to the expenses which may be superfluous. With us the farmer and the artisan are not in a condition to support considerable imposts. May the bitter remembrance of the past be extinguished. Forget individuals that you may recollect events. Who is the man that can boast of having committed no error during the course of this too long revolution? Reflect that the human mind may be frequently deceived, while the heart still remains good, still cherishes the cause of liberty and its country. This day is the commencement of a new epoch—Endeavor to unite all the inhabitants of Helvetia in one family. May brothers sympathize in the joys and sorrows of brothers; may they rise together, and lie down together, as in the days of our fathers. Maintain an indissoluble union. The old observation is still applicable—union strengthens the most feeble states; discord destroys the most powerful. Let the experience of the past teach you to fix the future while it is in your power. Awaken the national spirit, re-animate the national honor. Let every man feel proud of the name of Swiss, and make it an appellation of honor in foreign countries. You will accomplish this desirable object, if the order of things which you are going to establish will give us peace and tranquility, and secure our liberty and our independence."
"Begin your work with energy, but with prudence. Reject not a certain
good, in the pursuit of that which appears better, but which is concealed in the lap of expectation. Hesitate not to leave something to be done by time. What is of the utmost importance, is to replace the present provisional order of things by a definitive system. Render this system permanent, and all the people of Helvetia will bless you to the remotest generations. May God bless your labors!"
At the conclusion of this address, a call of the members took place. They came forward in succession, and laid the acts of their nomination upon the table. All of them were present. The assembly consists of 81 members.
They then proceeded to the election of a president. Citizen Kahn had the majority of votes; and Usteri and Udelwein, were elected secretaries.
Ruttiman gave up the chair to Kahn, and retired, after delivering to the president a copy of the Helvetic constitution, Cantonal constitutions, and the other papers upon which the diet have to deliberate.
A message was then read from the executive council relative to the same subjects, and ordered to be translated into French and Italian.
The government has ordered the Helvetic troops at Lucern to march against the insurgents of Stantz. It is hoped that the large preponderance of Waldstetten will, by means of this movement, succeed in restoring order in that country.

WASHINGTON CITY.
MONDAY, DECEMBER 7, 1801.
A new Legislature this day commences its sittings. Under a government constituted like ours, whose existence emanates from, and whose duration depends upon the people, we are not surprised that the national solicitude should accompany the recurrence of such an era.
As the Legislature is the most efficient, so should it ever be the most respected organ of power. Monarchies elevate one man to pre-eminent distinction; but it is the glory of republics, that their brightest honors are conferred on their immediate representatives, to whom are confided the enactment of laws. It is the Legislature that creates; the Executive only carries what has been previously willed into effect. While, therefore, the true republican holds no legitimate testimony of respect from the Chief Executive Magistrate, he will not hesitate to rank him in subordination to the Legislative body. Here his affections, his hopes, and his fears will centre.
Let us then, fellow-citizens, realizing the genuine principles of our political institutions, seize the favorable moment of illustrating our creed by our conduct. Let the national sentiment awaken the representatives of the people to a sense of their dignity, that they may assume and exercise all the constitutional functions entrusted to them.
It cannot be disguised that, at no very distant day, the instruments of the legislature permitted the executive department to assume to itself the unauthorised discharge of duties, which, being legislative in their essence, admitted not of transfer.—Nor can it be disguised, that an evil of equal magnitude sprang from the discretionary confidence vested in the executive branch.
These evils call for radical reform; and that they will be reformed with firmness and circumlocution may rationally be anticipated from the prevailing spirit of the times, no less than from the character of the legislative body.
In announcing the first sittings of the first truly republican Congress, under our present constitution, it may be interesting, and not altogether unproductive of profit, to notice concisely the recent succession of events which have followed the late crisis in our affairs, and to glance at the most important events which may be expected to occur during the ensuing session.
Moral principle, or a sense previously unequalled, pervaded the union; and disseminated to its remotest corners, ideas of men and measures, correct and impressive. To the conviction of the public mind succeeded the triumph of republicanism in the election of a Chief Magistrate, equally distinguished by his talents and virtues. This event has proved but the dawn of a brighter day. The same convictions that placed him in the chair of the federal government have with increasing energy, called into the representative branch 69 republicans, out of 105 members; and has transformed the Senate into a body also decidedly republican.
This change marks not a particular predilection for certain men, formed on personal attachments; but a regard for certain principles and measures, and an ability to certain other principles and measures, whose truth and fitness lately agitated the nation.
What are these principles and measures?
The nation believed that principles were entertained, that unopposed would lead to monarchy. They saw measures pursued that confirmed their belief. The alien and sedition acts; the extension of diplomatic intercourse; the formation of pernicious treaties; the undignified reproaches of foreign nations; the rapid extension of warlike preparations; the imposition of heavy taxes, formed a mass of measures that menaced the republican structure.
A virtuous opposition to these measures, an opposition which awakened and animated the patriotism and talents of our first citizens, produced the change we now contemplate. Before the Presidential election, a large majority of the Senate, and a small majority of the Representatives, were federal; now the Senate consists of 19 republican and 13 federal members; and the House of Representatives consists of 69 republican and 36 federal members. The change has been equally great in the states.
Before the late crisis, the legislatures of the following states were federal, viz.
New-Hampshire, Rhode-Island, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Vermont, New-York, New-Jersey, Delaware, Maryland—Being 9 states. And the Legislature of the following states were republican, viz. Virginia, North-Carolina, South-Carolina, Georgia,

Kentucky, Tennessee—being 6 states. Pennsylvania—the Senate federal, and the House of Representatives republican. Mark the change! Now—Only the legislatures of the following states are federal, viz. New-Hampshire, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Delaware—being 4 states. While the Legislatures of the follow- ing states are republican, viz. Rhode-Island, Vermont, New-York, New-Jersey, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia, North-Carolina, South-Carolina, Georgia, Kentucky, Tennessee—being 12 states.
If the members of the Republican states be compared with those of the Fe- deral states, it will appear that the for- mer constitute above three fourths of the whole.
When we consider the great changes which have lately taken place in the four states, as yet federal; when we consi- der that in New-Hampshire, Massachu- setts, and Delaware, but a trifling ma- jority of the total votes given at their last elections were on the federal side; we may confidently infer that the conti- nued operation of the great political principles, which in other parts of the union have overcome all obstacles, will soon assimilate these states to the politi- cal sentiments of the others.
The Chief Magistrate has been com- manded for infractions of the constitu- tion and laws, and for violations of the national feelings and wills. Can there be a more conclusive refutation of the charge than that furnished by the above statement? Have the republicans, they who exclusively support the admin- istration of the federal government— have they lost ground in a single state? Have they not, on the contrary, in the short period of one year, gained five states? And even when they have not succeeded, is not every election an evi- dence of their increasing strength?— Crest then, ye who respect truth, to affirm that the President is on one side, and the nation on the other. He who came to power as the man of the people, will not cease to remain so while his ac- tions demonstrate the existence of a mind prompt to discern, and a heart warm in the pursuit of whatever pro- motes the public good.
What has he done? 1. The chief of a republican go- vernment, he has declared himself a ge- nuine republican.
2. He has introduced economy into the public expenditures.
3. He has equalized in some degree the distribution of offices, by excluding those unfit for the places they held; and by raising to the first offices under the government men, whose talents are re- flected by their friends, and dreaded by their enemies.
4. He has avowed himself the friend of peace with all mankind, and has proscribed what he avowed.
5. And what, perhaps, more redounds to his honor than the sum of all that he has done, he has omitted to do any one thing which the constitution or laws of his country did not authorize and direct.
In a word, under the present change in our political affairs, the nation is uni- ted and happy.
That it may continue united and hap- py must depend on the wisdom of the legislative body.
However secure our rights may be under the present administration of our government, every enlightened republi- can must know, that a large share of our political happiness is not duly pro- tected against the invasion of rulers inim- ical to liberty. The late changes, which secures whatever is dear to free- dom, may, by some fortuitous events, however at present unlooked for, be ex- changed for a relapse of our govern- ment into all its old, incorporated with new errors.
Now, then, is the period; for men who have wisdom to plan, and vigor to achieve, new securities for the enjoy- ment of peace and liberty. Executive power has been, and it may be again abused. The liberty of the press has been invaded. The rights of foreigners have been trampled upon. For these leading evils, let correctives be enacted. On these points there can be no division among republicans—On lesser points there may exist a contrariety of opinion. Still it becomes the legislature calmly to discuss whatever respects the permanent protection of our rights, and to adopt whatever its best judgment recommends.
It is sincerely to be hoped that the fe- deral part of the legislature, seeing its inability to oppose with effect, will mag- nanimously co-operate in the promotion of measures, which, founded exclu- sively on a regard to the public good, in their unanimous adoption, may be con- sidered as so many evidences of our uni- versal agreement in, and pledges for the duration of, certain great political prin- ciples.
Should this wise policy advance them, the nation will thank them. There is a disposition in the republicans to for- get past divisions; and to co-operate harmoniously with all descriptions of ci- tizens, who shall abandon personal and party views, and unite with sincerity in advancing the national interests.
During the ensuing session of the Fe- deral Legislature, the first attention will be paid by the Editor to whatever re- spects the proceedings of the govern- ment. The DEBATES will be given in detail, and every public Document of an interesting nature. The extension of the limits of the National Intelligencer, will enable the Editor to do this, with- out violating the claims of other articles of intelligence.
On Tuesday last the house of Repre- sentatives of Pennsylvania formed a Quorum, and unanimously chose ISAAC WEAVER Speaker.
On the 21 inst. arrived at Alexandrin, (Virg.) William Vans Murray, late mi- nister at the Hague.
It is stated in the Courier, of the 17th of October, that M. Otto, is intended by government as ambassador to the United States.
[M. Otto is a native of Switzerland: he resided in this country in quality of secretary to M. Luzerne, the second mi- nister from France to the United States, in the year 1779.]
DIED—Near Bath (Virg.) Col. Phi- lip Pendleton, in the 52d year of his age.
DIED, on the 16th instant, at Silver- Bluff, Edgefield district, aged 35 years, the Honorable Ephraim Ramsay, one of the Associate Judges of South-Car- olina.
In announcing the death of this ex- cellent and amiable man, there is little fear of adding infamy to the sacred memo- ry of the dead, or of doing violence to the dignity of grief by an unqualified praise.—Elevated by the voice of his country, to one of its most important offices, he brought to his task a mind richly stored; a discernment unusually prompt; an integrity, that could not be corrupted; an independence, and firm- ness of principle, that could not be shaken. On questions of general policy, and on subjects, to the understanding of which judgment and information are necessary, his views were enlightened and liberal; and they were decided by an eloquence, animated, yet chaste and precise.—In his family, his conduct, was marked by tenderness and indulgence—'twas such as exhibited that affection, which domestic happiness demands, and that satisfaction, which only its innocence can inspire. As a friend and companion, his intimates will long remember and respect that ge- nerosity, which had full possession of his heart, that intelligence, which pervaded his conversation; and that politeness, which graced his manners. By his death, we are left to regret knowledge, that is extinguished, and talents that are buried in oblivion—It is our portion to sympa- thize with affection, that is widowed; and to pity innocence that is unprotected.

New-York, December 2. Captain Woods of the ship Commerce, who arrived at this port yesterday in 20 days from Guadalupe, informs us that he was embargoed there 20 days in con- sequence of an insurrection on the part of the negroes, headed by general Pe- lage; that the insurgents seized the per- son of general La Crosse, and put him on board a Danish ship for Copenhagen; and that the vessel was captured by the English frigate Tamar, and carried into Martinique.
MAGLOIRE PELAGE, Chief of Brigade, Commander in Chief of the armed force of Guadalupe and its dependencies, And the Civil Com- missaries—To all the citizens of the United States of America at present in the colony.
WORTHY and DEAR ALLIES, The events that have just happened, obliges us to lay an Embargo on all your vessels, as well as on others which were found in our ports. This measure was indispensable; but we hasten to announce to you that you are at liberty from this day to clear out your vessels.
If an abundance of a few days has been prejudicial to your interest, on the other hand you will not depart without carry- ing along with you the conviction that we have been devoted to the horrors of an intestine dissention, and that tran- quility has been speedily restored. You have witnessed the efforts we have made to attain the end; you have seen how they have been seconded.
Citizens, children of a republic ne- cessarily allied to the French republic, Guadalupe will remain faithful to the metropolis; she wishes to preserve the relations of friendship and of commerce to happily re-established between the two nations by that treaty, the ob- vance of which shall ever be sacred to us.
vance of which shall ever be sacred to us.
These intentions have been proved to you by the safety and regards which you have enjoyed amidst the ills which we have just experienced. Accept there- with our solemn assurances; and be pleased to transmit the same to your fel- low citizens at the several ports of your respective destinations. Tell them that far from relinquishing the connection which unites us to each other, they ought to strengthen it still more; that the mea- sures taken by the administration, the economy and the order adopted for the employment of the rich productions of this colony, warrant more than ever to our worthy allies the great advantages they have so constantly found thereby and will cement the union and the con- fidence which arises from the prosperity of all.
