BOSTON, March 24. Of electioneering in New-Hampshire, the last mails furnish us with the following lists of votes: In Portsmouth , for President, Hon. John Langdon, 346; President Sullivan, 17; Judge Livermore, 1. In Amherst , President Sullivan, 109; Mr. Langdon, 44. Hollis , Mr. Langdon, 110. Litchfield , Mr. Langdon, 18; President Sullivan, 17. Kennington , President Sullivan, 70; and 30 divided between Messrs. Bartlett, Livermore and Langdon.
The General Court, during the present session, have passed an act, inflicting a penalty of Fifty Pounds, on any Sheriff who shall neglect or refuse to make seasonable return into the Secretary's Office, of all votes for governor, Lieutenant-Governor, Senators and Councillors: and a forfeiture of ten pounds, in each and every Selectman and Town-Clerk, who shall neglect or refuse to perform the duties required of them, by the Constitution, respecting the choice of Governor, Lieutenant-Governor, Senators and Councillors, and returning the votes for the same.
By a resolve of the general Court, on the petition of John M. Clench , and others, the duty of 10 per centum, ad valorem, on all Card-Ware, is repealed.
Of the CONSTITUTION—and of CONVENTIONS.
The States of Massachusetts, Connecticut, New-Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, and Georgia , have ratified the Constitution. The Convention of Maryland , meets about the 20th of April; of South-Carolina , the 12th of May; of Virginia , the last of May; of New-York and New-Hampshire , the 17th of June; and of North-Carolina , the 4th of July. Rhode-Island , we care but little about—she contains, indeed, a number of characters, who are pearls of price—and, could these be separated from the pebbles, which there abound, it would be more a matter of joy than lamentation, to the honest and honorable part of mankind, was she sunk into one of our Western water ponds. Her Legislature has submitted the Constitution to be discussed by the people, each in propria persona .
Great numbers of families still continue to emigrate to the Northward, as well as to the Westward, from this State, Rhode-Island and Connecticut —so that Vermont , (which we hope will soon be admitted into the Union) will be a very good exchange for our little froward neighbor, should she in her folly reject the boon now proffered her.
Sailed from Marblehead last Saturday, for the Grand Banks , a fleet of nearly 40 sail of fishermen.—Success attend them.
NEW-YORK, April 1.
Yesterday morning, about one or two o'clock, a fire broke out in the buildings of Mr. Campbell, pot-baker, in Broad-Way , near the Hospitals ; which, in a little time nearly destroyed the same. The wells in the neighbourhood being exhausted in a few minutes of their water, stopt all timely exertions to extinguish the rapidity of the flames.—To this may be attributed the destruction that ensued.
We learn from Philadelphia , that the Landholders on both sides of the South line of this State, on the waters of the Delaware and Susquehannah , have subscribed 1500 dollars, to lay out several roads from the settled parts of Pennsylvania to the mouth of Tioga , Ononquaga , the Cook-House , &c. and that the Legislature has afforded them the sanction of a law, and granted them 1000l. in aid of their undertaking. We understand that their subscriptions will be kept open, and that in the course of the ensuing summer, all the country bounded on the East by the Delaware , and on the North by the Pennsylvania and New-York line , will be intersected with good roads 33 feet wide, to the extent of more than 150 miles in their several courses, whereby the settlement of that valuable tract of country will be hastened and rendered very easy. Such measures on the part of this State are absolutely necessary to prevent our advantages being diverted from us.
Extract of a letter from a gentleman in Richmond, Virginia, to his friend in Boston, dated, Feb. 24. 1788.
"Our Governor has expressed quite different sentiments respecting the new Constitution, since its adoption by your State. Although the majority was made, yet the speeches of some of the minority, after its adoption, has gained more proselytes to federalism here, than if the majority had been much larger, and the Convention had dissolved with any animosity. Our politi-
cians are much pleased with the candor and liberality with which the important matter was discussed; and the little appearance of party discovered by your minority, has caused many worthy characters here, to view the matter in quite a different light, and I believe, from quite a large majority against the Constitution, we can now boast of at least equal numbers, and the superior excellence of the new plan, cannot help forcing conviction on the minds of many more good men. Most of those now opposed to it, are persons whose estates are much involved, by owing large British debts, which they think must be paid when we have a Federal Head: but as Governor Randolph now speaks in favor of it, and as he has much influence, I am confident that it will not only be adopted, but by a very respectable majority. North-Carolina , follows of course."
On Friday arrived the Schooner Nancy , Stewart , from St. Eustatia ; Sloop Betsey and Nancy , Jenkins , Cape Francois ; Endeavor, Cummings , Dominica .
On Saturday arrived the brig Nancy , Barnard , from Cape Francois .
And yesterday arrived the ship Elizabeth , Spence , from Antigua .
Anecdote. A very avaricious Divine, seeing a poor boy of a promising appearance in a deplorable condition, called him to his door, and giving him a mouldy piece of bread, asked him if he could read; to which he answered in the negative: to the questions whether he could say the Belief and Lord's Prayer , the answer was the same. Well, said the divine, I will teach you that; say after me; "Our Father," said the instructor. Our Father! repeated the poor boy; What, your father as well as mine? Yes, certainly. Then we are brothers! To be sure we are, was the reply. Why then, rejoined the boy, pulling the crust from under his coat, how could you give your poor brother this mouldy piece of bread?
From the Virginia Herald. The New LITANY.
Spare us, good Lord; FROM all evil and mischievous Members of the State Legislature, from the sin of ingratitude, from the powers of ex post facto laws, and from everlasting damnation.
Good Lord, deliver us;
From such laws as do discriminate in favor of sheriffs and others who are in arrears for taxes; from all pompous and inaccurate statements of the public debt, and from such statements as may tend to soothe and flatter the people into a willingness to remain in their present state, rather than to adopt the new Government.
Good Lord, deliver us;
From State chicanery, government speculation, and from all the uncharitableness concomitant therewith.
Good Lord, deliver us;
From intestine war; from the assemblies of such clubs as are gathered to oppose the new Constitution; and from the rage of those who burn with choler, as knowing their consequences will be lessened by the adoption thereof:
We beseech thee to hear us, good Lord;
That it may please thee to keep and strengthen in the true knowledge of thy ways, thy servants WASHINGTON, RANDOLPH, and MADISON , and all that are put in authority under them, and to enable them to be instrumental in promoting such wise government as may best tend to the peace and happiness of all thy people.
We beseech thee to hear us, good Lord;
That it may please thee to incline the hearts of thy people to adopt the new Federal Constitution; to endow the President thereof, the Vice-President, Senators and House of Representatives, with grace, wisdom and understanding, to make and execute such laws as will best tend to secure to thy people the blessings of liberty, peace and concord, in those States, and that they may so far retrieve their lost credit, that they no longer be a reproach and hissing amongst the nations of the earth.
We beseech thee to hear us, good Lord;
That it may please thee to shield us from the rage of malicious and disappointed men, and to strengthen us in the principles of the Federal Constitution, so as to enable us to triumph over all the enemies thereof, that so hereafter we may attain to a government which will have such energy and stability as will be adequate to the exigencies of the Union.
We beseech thee to hear us, good Lord;
That it may please thee to save from anarchy all thy people.
Prospects on the Rubicon:
OR, An Investigation into the Causes and Consequences of the Politics, to be agitated at the Meeting of Parliament.
L O N D O N:
Printed for J. DEBRETT, Piccadilly, 1787.
[ Said to be written by the Author of Common Sense. ]
[ Continued from our Paper of yesterday. ]
THE consequence of the funding scheme, even if no other event takes place, will
be to create two violent parties in the nation. The one gradated by taxes continually increasing to pay the interest, the other reaping a benefit from the taxes by receiving the interest. This is very strongly shadowed forth, like the hand writing on the wall, by the ingenious author of the Commercial Atlas , in his observations on the national debt.
The slumber that for several years has overshadowed the nation, in all matters of public finance, cannot be supposed to last forever. The people have not yet awakened to the subject, and this is taken for granted they never will. But, if a supposed unnecessary expenditure, of between five and six millions sterling in the finances of France, (for the writer undertakes not to judge of the fact) has awakened that whole nation, a people supposed to be perfectly docile in all national matters, surely the people of England will not be less attentive to their rights and properties. If this should not be the case, the inference will be fairly drawn, that England is losing the spirit that France is taking up, and that it is an ingenious device in the ministry, to compose the nation to unpopular and unnecessary taxes, by shamming a victory when there was no enemy at hand.
In short, every war serves to encrease every kind of paper currency in the nation, and to diminish the quantity of gold and silver, by sending it to Prussia and other foreign countries.
It will not be denied that credulity is a strong trait in the English character; and this has in no instance shewn itself more than in mistaking paper for money, except it be in the unaccountable ignorance of mistaking the debt of the nation for riches. But the suspicion is beginning to awake.
We will close this article, with observing that a new kind of paper currency has arose within a few years, which is, that of country bank notes; almost every town now has its bank, its paper mint, and the coinage of paper is become universal. In the mean time the melting down the light guineas, and re coining them, passes with those who know no better, for an encrease of money; because every new guinea they see, and which is but seldom, they naturally suppose to be a guinea more, when it is really nothing else than an old guinea new cast.
From this account of the money, paper, and national debt of England, we proceed to compare it with the money, paper, and national debt of France.
It is very well known that paper has not the credit in France, which it has in England, and that, consequently there is much less of it. This has naturally operated to encrease the quantity of gold and silver in France, and prevent the encrease of paper.
The highest estimation of the quantity of gold and silver in England, as already stated, is twenty millions sterling, and the quantity of paper grafted thereon immense.
The quantity of gold and silver in France is upwards of ninety millions sterling, & the quantity of paper grafted thereon, trifling. France, therefore, has a long run of credit yet in reserve, which England has already expended; and it will naturally follow, that when the government of France and the nation shall adjust their differences by an amicable embrace of each other, that this reserved credit will be brought forth, and the power of France will be at least doubly encreased. The adjustment of these differences is but the business of a day, whenever its government shall see the proper moment for doing it, and nothing would precipitate this event more than a war. The cry of war, from the injudicious provocations given by the British ministry, & the disadvantageous effect of the commercial treaty, is becoming popular in France.
The near situation of France to Spain and Portugal, the two countries which import gold and silver, and her manufactures being better adapted to the warm climates of those countries, than the manufactures of England, give her superior opportunities of drawing money into the nation, and as she has but little trade to the East-Indies, the money so drawn in is not drawn out again as in England. Another advantage is, that from the greatness of her dominions she has no occasion to waste her wealth in hiring foreign troops, as is the practice with England; and a third advantage is, that the money which England squanders in Prussia and other countries on the continent serves to encrease the wealth of France, because a considerable part of it centres there through the medium of her commerce.
Admitting Great-Britain and Ireland to contain ten millions of inhabitants, the quantity of money per head is forty shillings: the money per head in France is three pounds fifteen shillings, which is nearly double.
The national debt of England, compared to the whole amount of money in the nation, is as twelve is to one, that is, the debt is twelve times greater than all the money amounts to.
The national debt of France, compared to the whole amount of her money, is con-
siderably less than as two is to one, that is her debt is not so much as twice the amount of her money. France, therefore, as already stated, has an immense credit in reserve whenever the settlement of her present internal differences shall furnish her with the means of employing it, and that period, so much to be dreaded by England, is hastening on.
The annual interest of the national debt of England and France are nearly equal, being NINE MILLIONS sterling; but with this difference, that above three millions and a half of the annual interest of France, are only life annuities. The interest, therefore, of her debt lessens every year, and she will have a surplus up to the amount of three millions and a half, to apply to the purchase of that part of the debt which is on perpetual interest; therefore, without any new taxes for that purpose, she can discharge her whole debt in less than a third of the time on which it can be done in England, according to Mr. Pitt's plan, with his additional tax of a million a year.
But let the event of Mr. Pitt's plan be what it may, as to reducing the debt, there is one circumstance that cannot fail to accompany it, which is, that of making it the interest of government, in executing this plan, to undermine the interest of its creditors, or the value of the funds, for the purpose of purchasing at a cheaper rate.
The plan is founded on the presumption of a long uninterrupted peace, and that future loans would not be wanted, which cannot now be expected, for France in her turn is getting into a temper for war. The plan naturally strikes at the credit of government, in contracting further debts, for were a loan to be opened to-morrow, the subscribers, naturally perceiving that it was the interest of government to undermine them as soon as they became creditors, would consequently seek to secure themselves, by demanding higher premiums at first. It is a question, whether a premium of thirty per cent. is now as good as ten was before, and therefore, the plan, in case of a war, instead of lessening the debt, serves to push it more rapidly on.
The minister certainly never understood the natural operation of his plan, or he would not have acted as he has done. The plan has two edges, while he has supposed it to have only one. It strikes at the debt in peace, and at the credit in war.
