LANCASTER, July 6.
At a meeting at the Court-House in the Borough of Lancaster, on Wednesday the 19th ult. the following Address was unanimously agreed to and signed by the gentlemen present.
To the Freemen of Lancaster County.
FRIENDS AND FELLOW-CITIZENS,
IMPRESSED with a firm belief that a happy choice of a GOVERNOR, at the next general Election, for the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, will be of the utmost national importance, we have assembled for the purpose of deliberating freely upon the Subject, and now have the pleasure to submit the result of the deliberations to you.
On so interesting an occasion, the system we have adopted, is not only proper, but indispensable. We should not slumber while our enemies are awake. There will always be many thousands of Voters in a state so extensive as ours, who may not know or understand the true characters of the Candidates who are offered to them. Without due information, therefore on so essential a point, being in some manner conveyed to them, the most upright men might be induced to throw away their Votes upon their worst enemy; upon the tool of a Faction; or upon an arbitrary Demagogue.
We have, therefore, for ourselves, unanimously and firmly resolved to vote for, and to use every fair exertion in our power, at the next general election, to support JAMES ROSS, of Pittsburgh, as a proper person to fill the important office of Governor; and we confidently recommend him to you, as a man of the first talents, and of unexceptionable Character; sober, moral and religious; In the full vigour of Life; his understanding unimpaired by disgraceful habits of Vice and Intemperance; his Judgement correct and cultivated with assiduous Care; a steady friend to his Country, and to the Constitutions of the United States and of this Commonwealth. He is personally known to many of us; and those of us to whom he is individually unknown, have a confidence in his Character, satisfactory from the sources from which it is derived.
It may not be inexpedient to accompany this recommendation with a few general observations which we deem pertinent to the occasion.
Every reflecting man who views, and can understand the situation of the United States, and the nature of the compact they have formed, must be convinced that their bonos , their Independence and National Glory can remain no longer than their Union shall continue inviolate and unimpaired; and that a separation of the States must eventually involve the ruin of all of them. A system so important to our happiness ought to be watched with the most jealous Care, and anxiously supported by every honest and virtuous man. He cannot be a friend to your Government, (but on the other hand he must be its worst Enemy) who would endeavour to weaken its Energy or undermine its influence. To create in your minds a distrust of the men you may have chosen to administer your Government; to alarm you, and cause your hearts to rankle with a mean jealousy of its powers; insidiously to make you discontented with the laws, till it break out into direct opposition and attempts to impede their execution are the base arts by which corrupt and designing men assail the Constitutions they wish to destroy; and no surer means can be devised to overturn the liberties of the people. The result is inevitable! Treason and Sedition must be put down, or the Government itself must fall! The arm of authority must become stronger or the whole fabric will be shaken! The land will be cursed with all the evils of anarchy; and a people sick of licentiousness, will be willing to submit to any kind of Government. Too enfeebled, and too corrupt to defend their ancient Liberties, the authority over them will be usurped by those who may have misled them; or some wealthy and powerful Individual may erect a monarchy on their prostrate necks! Such history tells us, has been the fate of many of the republics of the old world, and, if we do not preserve our Virtue and Integrity, such will be the fate of ours!
Countrymen, we are blessed at present with one of the best constitutions in the world; and well calculated to protect us from Danger from abroad if we can defend it from the assaults of its Enemies within. It is a sacred Duty which we owe, to transmit it unimpaired to posterity! Yet there is a party among us, who falsely call themselves Republicans, who are opposed at the whole administration of the Federal Government, and under the pretence of supporting the Constitution are assailing it with all the Arts that malice can invent. They are the Friends of France more than of their own Country; and under the influence of French Principles, they are struggling to divide the people from their Government. They have opposed every salutary measure of public Defence; and by slanderous Falsehoods they have vilified every system that has been devised to raise a revenue to protect us from foreign oppression, or to secure our trade. To be convinced of these truths it is necessary only to review the transactions of a few years past. To divide in order to destroy, as is obviously the Design of France; and the more she can weaken the general Government, the more easy will be her conquest; and it is therefore a primary object with her partisans, by any and every means, to elect, into the offices of the State Governments, men who are decidedly opposed to the general administration. By disuniting the parts, the whole must eventually fall. France has already conquered more by her principles than with the Sword! It is a dreadful warfare! It is with her own Philosophy that she first corrupts the heart; and then triumphs over a weakened and degenerate people. Under the pretence of overthrowing Priestcraft, she has put down the
altars of God, has shaken the foundation of all religion, and let loose a mighty flood of immorality upon the world! It is thus she was upon Mankind. Behold the fate of Switzerland once the happy seat of Liberty the native Soil of many of your Ancestors, how the languishes under French oppression! Behold Italy & Holland! their Commerce annihilated, their property seized by their French Friends, and new Governments forced upon them and changed at the pleasure of their new Masters. No longer free Republics, but tributary Provinces of France!
None of us, Fellow Citizens, would wish to behold the United States thus humbled. Let us then exert ourselves before it be too late. Let us banish from among us the insidious principles of France, and consider her friends, and those who justify her conquests and her oppressions, not only as Enemies of the peace and happiness of our beloved country, but as the Enemies of the human Race! Let us support our own Government, and it will be able to protect us; if we are meanly jealous of it, it must fall, and we must perish with it. We cannot exist as a nation, unless we support it, not only with our purses, but with our Veneration and Confidence. Let not our enemies gain an advantage over us by their Industry, while we are inactive at home; but let us exert ourselves to the utmost to prevent any man from being elected into office, who is either a friend to French measures, or who is opposed, at this interesting period, to the laws and administration of his own country. Let us consider it as a criminal to remain at home on the day of election, and it will then be shown that the friends of good order and government are still the strongest, in Pennsylvania.
FRIENDS AND FELLOW CITIZENS,
A more important period than the present has not occurred in the history of the United States. It may be said with propriety that this is the time to try the hearts of men. It is by his conduct in the day of trouble, by his exertions and vigilance to oppose the machinations of the tools of a faction who are basely plotting against the dearest interests of their country, that the PATRIOT may be known. It is not by inactivity and repose that we can protect the Independence, or preserve the peace, happiness and prosperity of our infant nation! We therefore call upon you, as Freemen who value Liberty, to aid us with your hearts and hands on this momentous occasion. You know us, and must know that we have no motives but the good of our country. We are determined to struggle to preserve our Religion, our Laws and our Liberty to the last, and with the blessing of God, we humbly trust our exertions will be successful.
We are your friends and Fellow Citizens, EDWARD HAND, Chairman.

COOPERSTOWN, June 27.
The day before yesterday, and the evening of the same day presented to the inhabitants of Cooperstown and its vicinity, a spectacle surpassing every thing of the kind, which has been witnessed in this country since it has been penetrated by civilized beings—Towards evening, the clouds gathered and produced unusual darkness, as to render lighted candles necessary an hour before sunset—soon the rain poured from the clouds with unusual torrents accompanied by heavy winds, and the lightning emitted an almost constant blaze, accompanied by his attending companion, thunder; in the evening the flashes were almost incessant, and the rain which fell, during the night, raised the waters of Lake Otsego, the surface of which covers 20,000 acres, from two to three feet—a circumstance which has never occurred within the knowledge of the oldest inhabitant of this country in the same time.
The damage done by the lightning is considerable, the house of Mr. Waldo, of Cherry Valley has been struck and injured, and another in Middlefield, several cattle killed, persons injured, but one killed as we have heard—vast damage has been done by the destruction of crops, bridges, mills, midams and tan-works.
A grist-mill in Burlington, was carried down stream by the rapidity of the torrent, with such force and effect, that the first discoverable remains of the mill were the mill-stones, the nearest of which were found 50 rods below the site of the mill.

By this Day's Mail.
NEW-YORK, July 11.
Last evening arrived here the ship Olive, Capt. McCall, from Cadiz, from which place she sailed on the 23d of May.
We are no longer in doubt about the sailing and course of the French and Spanish fleets; for an intelligent gentleman who arrived in the above ship, has favoured us with the following
Important Minute.
"The French fleet, consisting of 23 sail of the line, 3 three deckers, passed the Straights on the 5th of May—destination not known."
"The Spanish Admiral Massaredo, with 17 sail, 5 three deckers, passed the Straights the 14th May."
"Lord St. Vincents, with 18 sail, 8 three deckers, passed the Straights on the 10th May."
"British (name of the commander not recollected) 5 sail, 1 three decker, passed the Straights the 18th or 19th May."
"Admiral Nelson, with 14 or 16 74's was in the Straights; besides"
"4 Portuguese 74's, and"
"14 sail of Turkish and Russian ships of war, exclusive of Neapolitans."
Thus we see, that there are now in the Mediterranean, about 100 sail of heavy ships of war, that must, if they have not already, partake of the battle of the Mediterranean, which, in all probability, will be more bloody than that of the Nile.
One of the French 74's put into Cadiz before the Olive sailed, where she remained, being disabled.
There had been a French Admiral at Cadiz previous to the sailing of the Spanish fleet, but had returned to Brest.
Left at Cadiz the ship Columbia. The Union failed for New York the night before the Olive.
On Sunday arrived the brig Peggy, Capt. Reynolds, 23 days from Kingston Jamaica. Left there the brig Juno, Price, sent in there for salvage, having been taken in a few hours after she left the port of Barratua for Baltimore, and shortly afterwards taken by a British frigate.
We have by this vessel received papers to the 31st of May; the few extracts from them follow:
Kingston, May 29.
The American brig Adventure, Capt. Harding, from Savannah bound to this port, taken by a Spanish privateer schooner, having on board 30 men with small arms, and retaken by his Majesty's ship Albacore, arrived yesterday.
His Majesty's ship Camilla, Capt. Larkins, arrived yesterday at Port Royal, in 3 days from Gonaiwes, having on board General Maitland, Colonel Nightingale, Harcourt and Grant, Capt. Reynolds, and Dr. Wright.
We understand that the intercourse with St. Domingo, has been so far settled, as that two ports are to be immediately opened for the admission of British and American bottoms. General Maitland, it is said, returns shortly to Europe in the Camilla.
We are sorry to mention, that his Majesty's ship Queen, soon after leaving Port-Royal, ran aground on the side of the Key, and was not got off when our latest advices left Port-Royal last night.
May 31.
Wednesday evening arrived at Port-Royal a French cart schooner from Gonaiwes—Mr. Deafy, Secretary to the American Consul-General in St. Domingo, has arrived in her with Dispatches to General Maitland.
Our accounts respecting the situation of his Majesty's ship Queen, leaves us still some ground to hope she may yet reach Port-Royal harbour, they have we understand, succeeded in bringing all her guns to Port-Royal, and from the great exertions used in getting a vast number of pumps to work, they have very much reduced the water in her hold.
The following Document is handed to us as official. It is a circular letter from the Government of Spain to its viceroys, Intendants, &c. and was left with us last evening in the Spanish Language, by a respectable mercantile friend; who received it from his correspondent in Philadelphia, by yesterday's mail. The intelligence it conveys is important to the commercial interest of this country; and, on this ground, we lose no time in having it translated for our paper of this morning. The original is in the hands of the Editor, and is open to the inspection of any of his readers who may wish to see it. [Mere. Adv.]
(CIRCULAR.)
His Majesty's constant watchfulness for the welfare of his beloved subjects, and the representations which have been made to him of the evil consequences arising to our colonies, from the want of exportation of produce, and the scarcity of dry goods and other

and ally and aid of his Majesty's enemies, who are therewith provided with the means of prosecuting the war which has proved so ruinous to Europe. Taking these circumstances into consideration, the king cannot delay a moment to apply a proper remedy to evils of such magnitude; revoking, as he has been pleased to revoke, the said Royal Edict of 18th November, 1797; and also every other permission, general or particular, which may have been granted either by his Majesty or his Vice-Roy, Governors, Intendants, and others in office; the laws of America, and the regulations of free trade remaining in their full force. And the said chiefs are bound, under their own personal responsibility, to take such steps as they shall think most proper not only to ensure a punctual execution of these laws, but to repair an injury practiced under cover of the said Edict, without admitting any excuses or pretences whatsoever, which may lead to thwart the execution of this order.

These means, his Majesty hopes, will encourage the merchants of Spain and America, to use their endeavors to enjoy the benefit held out to them from reciprocal commercial transactions, adopting the usual methods (arrangements) and others pointed out by necessity; but though the assistance of government be required, the commercial tribunals of this kingdom and America, may apply to his Majesty, representing whatever their duty shall dictate, with a full confidence that a due attention will be paid to the same, provided they confine themselves to point out the means of supporting our trade and industry, without doing anything that has opposed it hitherto, to the great loss of our subjects, and the benefit of our enemies.

Captain Webb wishes to make this public testimony of thanks to commander Barron for the vigilance, attention and politeness constantly displayed towards every vessel under his care; and thinks that too much praise cannot be given to his able and officer-like conduct on the occasion.

Mackey, of the Three Brothers } In the Court versus } of Vice The sloop, Freeport & Cargo } Admiralty.  ON the 11th inst. this cause was argued before the Hon. Moses Franks, Esq. Judge of the Court of Vice Admiralty, and on the 14th, sentence was pronounced; by which the vessel and cargo were condemned to the captors, who nevertheless were ordered to pay the costs of suit, it appearing that undue means had been attempted to influence the crew of the Freeport upon their examination, which his Honor the Judge highly reprobated.

Upon the trial it appeared that the Freeport had been furnished with regular American papers, and sailed from Boston to Cadiz with a cargo belonging to the master and another American citizen, where the same was sold, and from the proceeds a cargo of Wines and Brandy, purchased with which he returned to Boston, where the cargo was landed, and at the expiration of a fortnight re-shipped. The Freeport then sailed for New-Orleans and a market, with new clearances, &c. in the prosecution of which voyage, she was intercepted by the Libellant, and sent into this port for adjudication.

The Freeport then sailed for New-Orleans and a market, with new clearances, &c. in the prosecution of which voyage, she was intercepted by the Libellant, and sent into this port for adjudication.
Condemnation of the cargo was argued upon the ground that the same was Spanish property, and much time were taken by the Proctors in their respective arguments upon that point but in pronouncing sentence, his Honor the Judge declared, that he did not conceive the question of property of much consequence to either party, because it was manifest that the vessel had evaded the vigilance of the British cruisers, and entered a blocked port with provisions, without a licence for that purpose, and had thereby aided the enemies of his Majesty with the means of prolonging the war: that after arming in the port of Cadiz, she had again escaped the blockading fleet, and returned to Boston, from whence she was proceeding for an enemy's port when captured; that such conduct was a departure from Neutrality, and in direct violation of the laws of Nations, and as such or otherwise, both vessel and cargo became forfeited.

The Proctor for the claimant, upon sentence being pronounced, prayed his Honor the Judge for a rehearing of the cause upon the grounds that his Honor had misconceived the question in a matter of fact, when he declared the blockade of Cadiz to extend to neutrals, and that the vessel had entered port without a licence; but after argument, the application was refused.

On Saturday evening last the 8th inst. a very melancholy accident happened at Joseph Savarie's, near Dorelleur Bridge on the Beaupre's side: The following are as near as can be ascertained, the circumstances
of the unfortunate event. Alexis Fouchyn, a servant to Savarie, went down on a ladder into a well about 20 feet deep, which had been dug in December last, to bring up a bucket which had fallen into the well some time before. It appears that the well had been kept covered till the time of the accident, and that this unfortunate man, immediately on descending the ladder, was suffocated by the noxious air, which is commonly formed in such places when shut up for any considerable length of time; attracting the attention of Savarie, who was employed near the spot, he immediately went to the assistance of his servant and met with the same fate; the family was now alarmed, and Jean Langevin, of Dorelleur Bridge who was pulling at the time, went to the assistance of Savarie, and perished with him;—by this time some of the neighbours had assembled, and Jean Roderique, a labourer, unconscious of the danger, proceeded to the assistance of Langevin, he was advised to make himself secure by a rope fastened round his body, this he refused, and soon met the fate of the other sufferers; a fifth person, named Bougie, now proceeded to descend into the well to the assistance of the others but before he reached half way down, he began to totter, but having had the precaution to fasten a rope round his body, he was drawn up senseless, but recovered on breathing the fresh air. Sunday morning the bodies were taken up with iron hooks fastened to the ends of ropes, in the manner of Grapnels. In the course of the day the depth of the water in the well was measured, and it was found not to exceed 15 inches, a lighted candle was let down which was immediately extinguished; a live cat was afterwards let down, and taken up in less than a minute apparently lifeless, but which recovered on being exposed to the fresh air.

A letter from Spain dated the 17th April says, that letters of service had been recently given to some of their best officers, that several corps of troops had been ordered to march towards Valencia and Alicante—and a great number of transports directed to be in readiness; whence it was conjectured that the recapture of Minorca was the object in contemplation.

"Yesterday I received intelligence from Leghorn, that the French troops took possession of that city last Monday; in consequence of which the British squadron now blocks up the port, and will continue so to do, as there is one seventy four and several smaller vessels lay at anchor in the road opposite the port, where, and at Porto Ferraro, the squadron will continue this summer; so that all business is at an end in Leghorn—in short, in all Italy, there being not one neutral port in the Mediterranean at present. All the American ships, to the number of ten or twelve, left the port of Leghorn the day before the French took possession of it, and anchored in the road under the protection of the British men of war."

CADIZ, 26 APRIL, 1799.  Since closing the copy of my last of 11th inst. I have read a decree from this court, prohibiting, under the severest penalties, any commercial intercourse between foreign nations and the Spanish settlements in America: it is not yet published, but will be in a few days: it was shown to me by Messrs. It also annuls the special licences which were formerly granted, and which have been the means of introducing West-India produce in American bottoms. I leave you to calculate the effect it must have upon the price of West India produce. It is a prohibition of Cocca; but the foreign duty on sugar is not much. This has been done in consequence of a representation from the merchants and consulado of this place, and is particularly aimed at the trade of the United States.

On Monday last, an account is given of a meeting held at Kurtz's, Hamilton township, Northampton county, for the purpose of fixing on the man to be supposed as our succeeding governor, which is utterly false.—the true proceedings of this meeting may be seen in the following extract of a letter from a gentleman of unquestionable veracity and character, who attended the meeting:—

"I wrote you last night in such haste that I could not be sufficiently circumstantial; I will now give you an account in detail. The people assembled at Kurtz's a little before two o'clock, and at three they had pretty generally met. At a quarter past three, Smith, finding his party rather weak, requested those who were for McKean, to wait until the rest were gone, as the intention of the meeting was to promote his election. It was observed on the other hand, that by the advertisement, all Republicans were invited, to fix on a suitable person for Governor; that we were all Republicans, and that we wished to have the liberty of choosing for ourselves. We at length acquiesced, and we proceeded to appoint a chairman. Mr. P. nominated Smith. — nominated John Huston. Huston was accordingly elected. This ascertained the strength of parties—the anarchists secede—we proceed to business without them—a committee is appointed to frame resolutions—the disappointed seek to interrupt us, by re-joining the meeting, and making disorderly motions—they are uniformly over-ruled—the resolutions are produced by the committee, pass through the usual forms, and are ratified—much chagrined, they bluster, attempt to wrangle, and finally, that they may not be entirely defeated, proclaim a meeting to be held there in the night, which was not to open until all the aristocrats were gone. We had not the assistance of our friends from the river, as S. — and C. — were about settling the settlement. I forgot to mention that the generous spirited Dr. Smith, publicly threatened to sue immediately some of his customers for siding with the friends of Mr. Rofs."

Thus we see by what means these friends of equal rights endeavor to carry their purposes, and with what palpable falsehood they would cover the disgrace of a defeat. It should be stated that the Dr. Smith above mentioned, is a cracked-brained French doctor, as poor a creature, perhaps, as ever existed—he is not worth another word. The chief justice knows him, and will be sorry to see him among his friends. It is a bad omen of the respectability of his party, in that part of the state; one of the principal leaders of the Democratic gang was one Pares, a brother of the insurgent now confined—another omen.

We are informed that a meeting was held at the City Hall yesterday, between the Mayor and the joint committee of the Select and Common Councils, managers to the plain for watering the city, now in progress under the direction of B. H. Latrobe, and the commissioners who were appointed by ordinance to invite and receive subscriptions to a loan of 150,000 dollars, the capital contemplated to be necessary for defraying the expense.

H. Latrobe, and the commissioners who were appointed by ordinance to invite and receive subscriptions to a loan of 150,000 dollars, the capital contemplated to be necessary for defraying the expense.
This meeting, we understand, was called for the purpose of communicating to the commissioners the advanced state of the works, the actual expense of executing therein to the present time, and the probable sum it will require for the full and entire completion of the whole plan, by an estimate founded on expenses ascertained and known by the execution of very considerable parts of the works.

We learn, that an accurate statement of disbursement, was exhibited at this meeting, detailing, with much precision and minuteness, the sums expended on the several different parts of the plan; and we are authorized in saying that in fair inferences from well ascertained facts, the whole expense of completing the necessary works, so far from exceeding, will probably be under the sum contemplated.

To carry on and complete this great object so important in every point of view to the welfare of the city, and in the estimation of some, essential for its preservation from ruin, it appeared that, instead of 1500 shares at 100 dollars per share, the loan subscribed to this day amounts only to 672 shares, and consequently the corporation are not possessed of efficient means to perfect even one half of the plan. This scanty means, in 5 or 6 weeks or sooner, must be entirely exhausted; and of course, unless further aided by the patriotic loans of intelligent citizens, the value of whose property is deeply interested in its successful completion, a full stop (of necessity) will be put to the further progress of these works.

To carry on and complete this great object so important in every point of view to the welfare of the city, and in the estimation of some, essential for its preservation from ruin, it appeared that, instead of 1500 shares at 100 dollars per share, the loan subscribed to this day amounts only to 672 shares, and consequently the corporation are not possessed of efficient means to perfect even one half of the plan. This scanty means, in 5 or 6 weeks or sooner, must be entirely exhausted; and of course, unless further aided by the patriotic loans of intelligent citizens, the value of whose property is deeply interested in its successful completion, a full stop (of necessity) will be put to the further progress of these works.

These lots lie very convenient to the centre market, and are inferior to none in the city of Baltimore, for healthfulness, of situation, purity and softness of water—and from their central, high and healthy situation between the town and Point, afford an eligible retreat for family residence, particularly to those who occupy warehouses and stores, either at Fell's-Point, or on the new improvements above and below Jones's Falls.
