L O N D O N, May 22. Extract of a letter from Bristol, April 26. As some workmen were, on Thursday last, opening a piece of ground at the corner of Pipe-lane, to dig the foundation of a cellar, they found (about three feet beneath the surface) a quantity of human bones, and many entire skeletons. It does not appear to have been a burying place, as not the least fragment of coffin, nails, &c. has been discovered, and the bodies lie in such positions, as are not customary in any mode of interment. On the wrist of one, was found a piece of iron like the ring of a handcuff—another had a stone seemingly forced betwixt the jaws, in a manner that could not have happened by accident, and must have occasioned the death of the person. The workmen suppose they have found the bones of between 30 and 40 bodies, some of them children, and there are evidently many more by the fragments to be seen on the ground."
The idea that has been entertained of slavery in Scotland, may, in a degree, be known from the following historical circumstance. "Alexander Stuart, found guilty, death, for theft, at Perth, the 5th of December, 1701, and gifted by the judiciary, as a perpetual servant to Sir John Erskine, of Alva." A collar worn, as was the custom, by this slave, was lately found in the grave of the deceased, in the burial ground at Alva.
The first volume of a splendid edition of Linnaeus, is just published at Paris. The editor is M. Gilbert; and it is but just to confess, that he has much embellished and improved, by his own remarks and explanations, the works of that difficult botanist.
A correspondent remarks, that the doctrine of the Courts of Law, respecting women exercising the office of Overseers of the Poor, is by no means new in this country; in many parts the custom is established very satisfactorily. In the year 1786, Mrs. Sarah Farmer, of Marton, in Oxfordshire, widow, was chosen Overseer of the Poor, and served the office; and what is very remarkable, this Overseer, in person, assisted the Constable, who was a young fellow of twenty-five, in apprehending a couple of stout young fellows who fled for bastardy, whom she afterwards saw married; and what is extraordinary, the above Overseer of the Poor acted as Father at the weddings.
R I C H M O N D, July 31. Extract of a letter from Norfolk, July 25. On the 22d. inst. we had a violent gale of wind at N. E. which continued till 3 o'clock yesterday morning. The houses in town shook as if they would have fallen down. Most of the craft and other vessels were driven from their moorings; some of them into the very streets of Portsmouth. A brig belonging to a Frenchman was driven between the heads of two wharves, with her bowsprit into a warehouse. A craft with 34 puncheons of rum, and a parcel of Madeira wine and sugars (belonging to Mr. McDougal) for Richmond, was driven high and dry into Portsmouth, but without receiving any injury. One craft is sunk with tobacco, and numbers of them in the bulk, and a great many sunk in the river. The damage done in Norfolk and Portsmouth is very considerable, especially in lumber, corn, salt, and tobacco very wet. Hampton road presented a very dismal prospect; the ship Favorite John parted her cables and drove on shore and bilged, with her fore and mizen masts cut away, also a brig bound for Rotterdam, and three other vessels. A Schooner from Barbadoes cut away her masts, and a brig of Mr. Taylor's, loaded with corn for Antigua, with her top gallant yards awant, rode it out; the only two vessels which were left afloat in the Road. The evening before it came on there was a ship and a brig beating into the Capes, but have not been heard of since. At 3 o'clock in the morning the wind shifted to S. E. and then died away. The tide was not so high as in September, 1785."
On Wednesday evening last, during the severe and tremendous gale, the ship Mermaid, Hunter, of Glasgow, with 305 hogheads of tobacco on board, drove from her moorings in Hampton Road, and after losing all her masts, she went on shore at Peg Island, in Nansemond. All the crew were saved, and it is tho' the ship will be got off without any damage to the cargo.
We hear that a Spanish ship with 4000 barrels of flour on board, was drove ashore on Back River, near Hampton, and totally lost; and that several pilot boats have been seen bottom upwards, and it is supposed the crews must have perished. One pilot boat was run completely over by a large ship, and all on board perished.
Y O R K, (Pennsylvania) July 31. Friday the 25th was appointed by the inhabitants of this place as a day of public rejoicing for the happy progress of the NEW CONSTITUTION; but from the appearance of the weather on Thursday evening, the meeting was postponed until Monday last.
The day was opened by an alarm gun—the morning being very wet, and the weather continuing bad until twelve o'clock, attendance at church, which had been part of the plan, was necessarily omitted. At half past twelve, a signal was given for repairing to the place of rendezvous by a discharge from the artillery.
The arrangement was made on the commons east of the town, which on account of its length we are unavoidably obliged to omit.
On the procession being formed, a signal was given by a shot from the artillery, when the trumpets sounded a march—on their ceasing, the drums and fifes struck up, they were relieved by hautboys. On entering the town the bells began to ring, and a number of gentlemen who had formed themselves into a band, gave an elegant march on violins and flutes. On the arrival of the procession at Federal Green, a gun was fired from the artillery, and a volley by the infantry. The company then proceeded to the choice of a President and Vice-President, when Thomas Hartley, Esq. was appointed President, and William Scott, Esq. Vice-President.
An oration suitable to the occasion was delivered by Mr. Charles W. Hartley.
Dinner was then served up in the utmost order. After dinner the following toasts were given by the flag carriers of the respective trades and classes.
United States flag. May our pros explore every inlet of the habitable globe—Our flag ride triumphant on every ocean—May impartiality wield the sword of justice, and impetuosity the sword of war.
Flag of the State of Pennsylvania. The state of Pennsylvania—may she hold the Federal balance and become the arbitress of the Continent.
Magistrates flag. May justice by her sword protect her scales—May nothing but righteousness turn the beam, and may the wife on judiciary what convulsed Belisarius. "Thou art weighed in the balance, and art found wanting."
the sword of civil dissention into a plough share"—who have sown the seed of good government; may it spring up without tares, and may each revolving harvest witness its encrease.
Maçons and Bricklayers flag. May the component parts of the Federal Edifice be squared by the plummet of impartial justice inseparably attached by the cement of citizenship.
Clock and Watch Makers flag. May virtue be the main spring of our new government—Patriotism keep its works in order. May the popular voice—keep up its chain, and may its hand point to the public good.
Bakers flag. May an oven "seven times heated" be the fate of him whose only objects are the "loaves and fishes."
Stocking Weavers flag. May he who first broached the formation of a new government, have a wreath of laurels twined round his brow, and a garland of honorary flowers wove for his reward.
Taylors flag. May Fate with her shears cut the thread of that man's life, Fame dishonor him with the name of Goose, and Society baffle him who endeavors to cabbages from his country.
Copper Smiths and Founders flag. May we be brazed together by a love for our country, as by borax and spelter, and riveted by an energetic government.
Potters flag. As often as the wheel of Time revolves this day, let gratitude tell of the heroes, who were proven as by fire, and may a tear of remembrance fall for such as were cracked.
Rough Carpenters flag. May his head be divorced from his body by the broad axe of justice, who does not square his conduct by the rule of right.
House Carpenters flag. The new political mansion—May its apartments be commodious—May three rafters be added to the ten which already support its roof, and may its lights be great and many.
Blacksmiths flag. May the Thirteen States be welded into one united empire, by the hammer of conciliation, on the anvil of peace; and may the man who attempts to blow the coal of discord be burned by the sparks.
Nailors flag. May our government be well pointed, and have a good head.
Painters flag. The New Constitution in its true colors, neither caricatured nor flattered, and may the brush of investigation correct the glare of light given by its friends, and the profusion of shade thrown on it by its enemies.
Glaziers flag. May the Paine remain for ever uncracked, that threw light on the subjects of our late war, and may the rays of truth be drawn to a focus by the glass of genius.
Saddlers flag. A curb bit and a traverze rein to the importation of foreign luxuries; and may the man who denies his encouragement to home manufactures be stirruped round the world.
Hatters flag. May he who twangs the bow of tumult be stripped to the belt, then dipped in a kettle of blacking; may his head be brought to the block, and their union constitute his character.
Shoe and Boot Makers flag. May we wax a great and happy nation, be bound by principles of mutual regard, actuated as by one soul, and may our prosperity as a people last until the end of time.
Brèches Makers and Skinners flag. May he be shorn against the grain, snooked and welted, who has not brains to know that the bands of the old government were too loose.
Tobacconists flag. May the leaves of antifeederalism be twisted together and fastened by thorns, or be rolled into tubes and end in a puff.
Waggon Makers flag. Three more spokes to our new wheel, a federal band for its tire, a willing people for its axis, political wisdom to set it in motion, and may its progress never be retarded by the lock-chain of opposition.
Saddle Tree-Makers flag. As we are clips of the same block, branches from the same tree, may we be glued together by a general efficient government.
Blue Dyes and Stampers flag. May fame stamp immortality on their names who have dyed for their country.
Tanners and Curriers flag. May every limb of that man be backed—may he be leathered through society and have his hide completely tanned who is mean enough to curry favor.
Weavers flag. For ever honored be the names of those who rejecting even the thrums of the Old Web have cut it out of the loom, and have wove another to cloath the political nakedness of their country.
Tinplate Workers flag. May the shears of liberty and extended policy cut away local prejudices, and may the late heat of political disquisition only serve to melt the cement that is to solder us together.
Scythe and Sickle Makers flag. May the sickle of industry be filled with heavy harvests until Time with his scythe shall mow down Empires and ages.
Butchers flag. As the marrow is connected with the bone, or one joint with another, so let us be united, and may no cleaver ever disjoin us.
Gunsmiths flag. When the implements of war are requisite to defend our country's rights, or resent her wrongs—may coolness take the sight and courage draw the trigger.
Printers flag. May no government be so potent as to restrain the Liberty of the Press, or so impotent as not to be able to check its licentiousness.
Brewers flag. May he be choaked with the grains, or drowned in hot ale, whose business it is to brew mischief.
Barbers flag. Hot curling irons and a dull razor to the enemies of our new system, and notwithstanding the wig they once took upon them, may they remain as they now are, in the luds.
Turners flag. May the antifeederalists be "turned from the evil of their ways," and be held no longer by the vice of groundless opposition.
Coopers flag. May the new government prove a binding hoop to the States, and never suffer them to go to flaves.
Brick-Makers flag. The materials which compose our new constitution—May they sustain the heat of party rage
without a crack, and come out more perfect from the kiln of faction.
Rope-Makers flag. May the production of our trade be the neckcloth of him who attempts to untwist the political rope of our union.
Mathematical Instrument Makers flag. The political compass—as it has been graduated by the finger of accuracy, may it prove our guide in the winds of legislation, and preserve its equipoise, however shaken by the storms of foreign invasion or domestic broil.
Joiners flag. The unanimity, which augurs that the hatchet shall soon be buried.
Surveyors flag. May the needle of the new government, be magnetized by an honest love of fame, and make the applause of the people its pole—may the lights be taken by the pervading eye of genius, the courses be shaped by integrity, and may there be no variation from national honor.
Merchants. The new constitution—may it prove 100 per cent. better than the old: May justice, mercy, and wisdom, be found in the Invoice of its excellencies, and may its nett proceeds, be good order at home, and respect in the councils of Europe.
Lawyers. A mild judge, a believing jury, a blundering opponent, a good cause, a handsome fee, and a federal client to every advocate of our infant constitution.
Physicians. The Political Physicians, who in place of mending have made a constitution—may it retain its health and vigor without the aid of medicine, and may the quack undergo at the same time, the double operation of cathartic and emetic, who prescribes bleeding.
Infantry Company. May the man who attempts to sap the foundation of our new government, have a mine sprung upon him; if the lights unhurt from this, may he be drummed out of society, to the tune of the rogue's march.
Each toast was announced by trumpets sounding, and followed by a roll from the drum; which was a signal to the Artillery under the command of Capt. Johnston, and to the Infantry under the command of Capt. Morris, to fire.
After the several toasts were drank, a Federal song was sung, accompanied by Hautboys. At six o'clock the drums and trumpets gave notice to form the procession again—A gun was then fired, a signal for marching. The procession returned to town in the same order in which they went out, and after three cheers they dissolved in High-street. The entertainment began and ended with the utmost harmony, to which the attention and arrangements of the managers greatly contributed. The procession was splendid. The number of people present could not have been less than fifteen hundred, with between forty and fifty flags interspersed, containing the principal tools and implements of each trade; these made a beautiful appearance, and discovered at once the head of ingenuity and the hand of a master. The exhibition certainly exceeded any yet made in the inland towns of the continent. Cheerfulness and good order were discovered throughout the company, and though the hammer of industry has for a while been suspended by the procession, it must certainly afford pleasure to every honest man, to see so respectable a body of people convened to testify their approbation of a government which is generally regarded as the political salvation of our country.
NEW-YORK, Aug. 8.
Circular Letter from the Convention of the State of New-York, to the Executives of the different States, to be laid before their respective Legislatures.
S I R,
WE, the Members of the Convention of this State, have deliberately and maturely considered the Constitution proposed for the United States.
Several articles in it appear so exceptionable to a majority of us, that nothing but the fullest confidence of obtaining a revision of them by a General Convention, and an invincible reluctance to separating from our sister States, could have prevailed upon a sufficient number to ratify it, without stipulating for previous amendments.
We all unite in opinion, that such a revision will be necessary, to recommend it to the approbation and support of a numerous body of our constituents. We observe, that amendments have been proposed, and are anxiously desired, by several of the States as well as by this, and we think it of great importance, that effectual measures be immediately taken for calling a Convention, to meet at a period not far remote; for we are convinced, that the apprehensions and disccontents which those articles occasion, cannot be removed or allayed, unless an act to provide for it be among the first that shall be passed by the new Congress.
As it is essential that an application for the purpose should be made to them by two thirds of the States, we earnestly exhort and request the legislature of your State (or Common-wealth) to take the earliest opportunity of making it. We are persuaded, that a similar one will be made by our Legislature at their next session; and we ardently wish and desire, that the other States may concur in adopting and promoting the measure.
It cannot be necessary to observe, that no government, however constructed, can operate well, unless it possesses the confidence and good will of the great body of the people; and as we desire nothing more than that the amendments proposed by this or other States, be submitted to the consideration and decision of a general Convention, we flatter ourselves that motives of mutual affection and conciliation will conspire with the obvious dictates of sound policy, to induce even such of the States as may be content with every article in the constitution, to gratify the reasonable desires of that numerous class of American citizens, who are anxious to obtain amendments of some of them.
Our amendments will manifest, that none of them originated in local views, as they are such, as if acceded to must equally affect every State in the Union.
Our attachment to our sister States, and the confidence we repose in them, cannot be more forcibly demonstrated, than by acceding to a government, which many of us think imperfect, and devolving the power of determining, whether that government shall be rendered perpetual in its present form, or altered agreeable to our wishes, or a minority of the States with whom we unite.
We request the favor of your Excellency to lay this letter before the Legislature of your State (or Common-wealth) and we are persuaded, that your regard for our national harmony and good government will induce you to promote a measure, which we are unanimous in thinking very conducive to those interesting objects.
We have the honor to be, with the highest respect, Your Excellency's most obedient servants, By the unanimous order of the Convention, GEO. CLINTON. President.
It is with singular pleasure we inform our readers, that in many parts of New-Jersey the harvest has been gathered in without the assistance of the liquid fire of the West-Indies. A drink, composed of two table spoonfuls of molasses, one of vinegar, and a tea-spoonful of ginger, with a quart of water, has been found by experience to mixtures with be more cooling and strengthening than all the rum that ever have been invented.
Yesterday arrived the ship Margaret, Blaine, in 54 days from Glasgow; brig Nancy, Thompson, in 23 days from Grenada; and brig Jamaica, Chisholm, from Montego-Bay, Jamaica.
MR. CHIDDS, At a public rejoicing in York Town, Pennsylvania, I observe, among the toasts given by the flag carriers of the respective trades and classes, the following article:
"2. Flag of the State of Pennsylvania. The state of Pennsylvania—May she hold the Federal balance and become the arbitress of the Continent." Pennsylvania Packet, August 5.
I am astonished, Sir, at the second clause of this toast. "May Pennsylvania hold the Federal balance." Methinks, Mr. Childs, this is a very unseveral wish. Do the Pennsylvanians really believe that the extent, the power, the wealth and the virtue of that State, qualify her to hold the balance between the other States? If they do, let them be happy in the opinion—but I think the old dominion at least will dispute some of these points with them.
But the last clause is insulting—the wish is a species of treason against the federal government. "May Pennsylvania become the arbitress of the continent." The arbitress, that is, the governing State, the Dictator, the arbitrary Lord of the continent! Is it possible that such a wish could ever have been entertained; much less published—and that too, at an exhibition in honor of the federal constitution, which guarantees the equal sovereignty of each State? Gracious Heavens! It is true, every State has in its bosom these little insect souls, who hover about a hand-breadth spot, and think it all the world. Nay, what is worse, there are those who venture beyond the limits of their own domain, yet are at war with every thing they meet. The climate abroad is not so healthy as that they left—the people are not so large, so well bred, so liberal, so polite, so learned—the horses are not so handsome and so fleet—the cows give less milk—the markets are wretched—and the vegetables are poor.—They find no good things except at home. Greatness, abilities, wealth, virtue, every thing is measured by the extent of the State, or by the length of a navigable river. Mr. Childs, there is yet in America, great "lack of federalism."
Upon my honor, Sir, I am acquainted with all the States, sufficiently to inform the inhabitants of any one State, that they mistake egregiously, when they suppose they possess all the riches, the strength, the wisdom, the virtues, the learning in the world; or enough of them to be the arbiters of their neighbors.
But the local views, the provincial hatred of certain men is intolérable. That they should be happier at home than any where else, is not surprising. A man who had passed his days in prison was happy there and refused to be released; but that such a man should treat all others as inferior beings, mere pigmies, because they could not relish his cell; is it not strange? Yet it is a time of wonders. In Baltimore, it is a wonder why that town should not be the seat of government—In New-York, it is a wonder why the government should be removed—The Pennsylvanians wonder that any city should be thought of for the seat of empire but Philadelphia.—They with themselves the arbiters of the continent, and wonder that every body does not with so too.

BRACHYGRAPHY.
MR. SARJEANT, LATE Assistant Teacher at the PRINCE of WALES's MILITARY ACADEMY at Kensington, near London, proposes to give a course of instructions in SHORTHAND WRITING, after the method of Mr. GURNEY, in this city.
Of the utility of the art to Gentlemen of the LEARNED PROFESSIONS, nothing needs be asserted, nor of the superiority of this system to any other; a system known to be in general estimation wherever the English language is spoken; and to unite the different excellencies of EXPEDITION and LEGIBILITY; a system, the result of FIFTY years PRACTICE and EXPERIENCE in the different English Courts of Judicature, &c. and now reduced to such a degree of perfection, as to be scarcely capable of further improvement.
A convenient room for the purpose is already engaged, and the hours of attendance will be made agreeable to the pupils. The theory and practice will each consist of SIX LESSONS. The terms ONE GUINEA; or HALF A JOE from those who are waited upon at their houses.
As Mr. Sarjeant's avocations in the city of Philadelphia require his return in twelve or fourteen days, he flatters himself that those Ladies or Gentlemen who intend to honor him with their attendance, will be as early as possible in their application.

He trusts he will be able to give general satisfaction to those who may please to employ him, (designated by their becoming subscribers) as he is determined to join unreserved 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. 21. with a foreman, to see the business performed. 2d. To allocate a proper district, in such manner, as that every subscriber's chimneys shall be regularly attended to once every month, (or oftener if required) at the rate of one shilling and three pence, for every chimney. 3d. To oblige himself to 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, no knowing where to apply. Subscriptions will be thankfully received at the above place, and the plan will be begun upon the second June next. STEPHEN PATERSON. May 9. tf
