NEW-YORK, June 17. By the United States in Congress assembled, June 11, 1788.

RESOLVED, That no person shall be entitled to a Pension as an Invalid who has not or shall not before the expiration of six months from this time make application therefor, and produce the requisite Certificates and Evidence to entitle him thereto.
CHARLES THOMSON, Sec'y. Accounts from Boston, brought by the last mail, assert, in positive terms, that New-Hampshire will adopt the New Constitution. On Sunday arrived the Sloop Elizabeth and Mary, Cobb, in eight weeks from Barcelona; and Yesterday arrived the ship George, Hunter, in 47 days from Glasgow; Brig Surprise, Watson, in 30 days from Jamaica; Schooner Edward, Smith, from Shelburne, in 7 days; Sloop Pitt, Newton, in 24 days from Antigua; Sloop Lucy, Knapp, in 11 days from St. John's; and Sloop Sally, Jones, in 18 days from Curacao. On Saturday cleared out, the brig Sally, M'Kenney, for Halifax; Schooner Example, Lavarit, for Pepperelborough; Sloop Good Intent, Cook, for Guadalupe; and Sloop Polly, Cunningham, for Caco Bay. The Bridget, Casey, from New-York to Newport-Prat, is put into Limerick in distress. Captain Stocker, of the brig Susannah, on his passage from Curacao, spoke the brig Polly, Capt. McDowell, from Charleston to Liverpool, in lat. 35, long. 70, out three days, all well.
"You villain work!—trouble me no further—I will send you to the house of correction." I turned my eyes to the street—a poor emaciated figure of a man attracted my attention—one arm was amputated in the late war, he stood bending beneath all the horrors of poverty, distress and despair—by his side was an animal called man; "but surely one of nature's journeymen made him, and did not make him well, he imitated humanity so abominably: "I dwelled with pride and self-importance, this creature refused a penny to the poor wretch, and by his manner willed to frown him out of existence—I drew nigh—you have been in the late war?—I have, and cruel necessity has forced me, contrary to my inclination, to solicit the benevolence of the world, these were his own words, I gave—and wished like Yorick, I had more to give.—Blush, human nature!—bestow not any more of your dignity, generosity and benevolence, here was one of your citizens, wealthy and of consequence, rejecting the petition of a man whose only crime was misfortune.—Was I a horse, I would kick any one who should call me a man."
EXTRACTS from GLASGOW PAPERS, received by the ship George.
L O N D O N, April 14.—18. The trial of Mr. Hastings "drags its slow length along"—and will continue to find employment for the Managers for this year, at least—Erlkine has been heard to say, that it may be protracted by due course of law, for four or five years—and indeed, an evidence that cost fourteen years in collecting cannot be supposed to be examinable in as many months.
Sir William Pepperel and a Committee of the American Loyalists had an interview on Saturday with Mr. Pitt, at his house in Downing-street, concerning the future provision to be made by Government for those unfortunate people.
Private letters from Vienna mention, that the Austrians being desirous of returning some Turkish prisoners whom they found difficult to submit, received for answer from the Turkish commanders as follows: "That they disdained cowards, who preferred being taken to dying horribly with arms in their hands; that if the Austrians did not think proper to give them provisions, they were at liberty either to cut their throats, or to suffer them to die with hunger; that it was useless ever to expect a cartel, since they were firmly resolved never to make any prisoners, nor give quarter to any whom they should find with arms in their hands."
The late action between the Turks and Austrians lasted full three hours, during which the Ottomans were not intimidated by the continual discharge of the artillery nor the fire of three divisions of infantry. As a further proof of their spirit on this occasion, they carried off three small ships to Belgrade in the face of the enemy.
The mails which arrived to day are perfectly silent as to all the amusing reports which have been for some days circulated here of the Empress's dethronement, death, &c. &c.
Extract of a letter from Paris, April 12. The Imperial Minister has conferences daily with the Archbishop and the other King's Ministers; negotiations of some sort are therefore certainly on the tapis, and if our court can do any good in the way of mediation among the belligerents, her good offices certainly will not be wanting; but it is laid down otherwise as a maxim, France will engage in nothing likely to produce hostilities, peace being our grand object at this time, so needful for the national prosperity.
—APRIL 17.— The Parliament of Toulouse, who have long and gallantly stood up in the defence of their privileges, exerted themselves so much of late against the Lettres de Cachet, that orders were sent down to seize the President! This was done:—but before the officer could convey away his prisoner, a numerous multitude rose, and contrary to the remonstrances of the President himself, released him. In the evening, the President returned of his own accord to the officer, and begged he would obey the King's commands: but the officer, alarmed by the menaces of the people, who had declared that in the defence of their privileges, thus attacked, they would readily meet death, excused himself from taking the President along with him; and returned to Paris, to report the issue of his orders.
This is the first act of resistance against the Military; and the disturbance is proportionate. We are assured, that the Dutch treaty, which has been so long on the tapis, is at length signed,
and the final ratification of it is expected from Holland on Friday. —APRIL 18.— His Majesty's person was extremely endangered one day last week, by the striking of a vicious horse in the Mews, at Buckingham-house.—The attendant page advised the King not to touch him, remarking he was rather vicious inclined;—notwithstanding which his Majesty went up to him, when the animal struck at him with uncommon violence, both heels falling within an inch of the King's head!
The loss the French have suffered by the destruction of their ships in the gale of wind which lately happened at the Mauritius, is computed at 14,400,000 livres; and it is singular that this dreadful gale was confined to the island, at least it was not felt ten leagues from it.
Extract of a letter from Vienna, March 24. Prefacing orders have been received from the Emperor, for 19 battalions of infantry, posted in this capital, to be marched immediately for the grand army. They are getting ready of course, but will not be at the place of destination till towards the end of this month.
Accounts lately received from Constantinople, by the way of Ragusa, have quieted those alarms for the safety of the Imperial Internuncio, which his family and friends before entertained. It now appears that he was suffered quietly to depart, after communicating the declaration of war.
The Gazettes Extraordinary of the 2d of April mentions the defeat of a body of 500 Turks, near Turguill, by Major Kittner of the first regiment of foot.
Lieutenant Sullerand, posted with 32 men of the first regiment of Wallachians behind Reskur, was attacked on the 16th of March by a body of 1235 Turks; the assault began in the morning, and was sustained with astonishing bravery. The advantageous situation of the Austrians enabled them to repulse the enemy in eight vigorous attacks made in the space of four hours. About two o'clock the next morning, the Turks were obliged to retire with the loss of 30 men, the Austrians having only 5 killed and 3 wounded.
At Chazin, a party of 2000 Turks were repulsed in an unsuccessful attack on our troops.
A party of Turks embarked at New Orsova, with a design to surprise one of our advanced pickets, but were repulsed with loss.
Count Wartenfleben detached a body of Turkish volunteers, to attack a transport of 200 horses loaded with provisions, and guarded by 1000 of their countrymen. The volunteers acquitted themselves well, took part of the provisions, and obliged the Ottomans to retreat precipitately with the remainder."
From the Pennsylvania Gazette. To the Honorable Convention of the State of New-York. [Concluded from Saturday's paper.]
THE article of the new Constitution relating to the regulation of elections has been very much misconceived. Permit me to ask your attention to a short examination of it. The 4th section it will be found relates merely to the mode of conducting an election, the other part of the Constitution fixing those essential points which are necessary to the preservation of liberty. They stand thus:
1st. The members of the house of representatives are to be chosen every second year—and the members of the senate every sixth year.—These are the fixed terms of existence of the two branches.
When the 4th section gives the Legislature of each state the power of prescribing, in the first instance, the time of holding those elections, we cannot on reflection suppose it was meant to give to each of them the power of altering the Constitution in so important a matter as the duration of the Legislature. Nor is it merely the time of day or the month in which such an election should be held that was meant to be submitted to them. The frequency of elections is better guarded. Two seasons the convention well knew were necessary to be attended to in this agricultural country. The time of seeding and the time of harvest. These vary in the different states. Rice is planted and cut in Carolina in months different from those of seed time and harvest in New-York. Therefore a general day could not be fixed in the Constitution, but was left to the legislatures. Yet a danger was possible and evident. Another Rhode-Island might start up among us, and regardless of the preservation of the union might omit to prescribe either time, place or manner of holding elections, by which our confederacy might be destroyed by the smallest member. Congress therefore were vested also with the power just given to the legislatures—that is, the power of prescribing merely the circumstances under which elections shall be held, not the qualifications of the electors, nor those of the elected—nor the duration of the senate—nor the duration of the representatives. These are prescribed by the constitution, unalterable by Congress, though the state legislatures can each of them fix the qualifications of the electors of representatives within their jurisdiction, and three fourths of the state legislatures or conventions can alter these and every other article relating to the elections of the federal representatives, senate, president, and all other officers of the general government. But let us proceed to the other essential points relating to elections which Congress cannot alter.
2dly. A representative must be 25, a senator must be 30, and a president must be 35 years. 3dly. The representatives and senators must be citizens of the states that send them. The senators must have been American citizens nine years, and the president must be now a citizen of some one state, or a natural born citizen hereafter. 4thly. None can elect senators or representatives but in their own state. 5thly. The day of the election of the president giving their votes must be the same throughout the union. 6thly. Each state has the exclusive power of fixing the qualifications of the electors of the federal representatives within their respective territory and jurisdiction. 7thly. The state legislatures have the exclusive right of electing the federal senators.
Those seven important articles relating to the federal elections are fixed by the constitution, and not alterable by Congress. On considering the remarks made on the power of prescribing the time of holding elections, and applying them in the same way to the other two points, it will be found that the 4th section was necessary to the preservation of the union—that it will be useful when invasions or insurrections prevent the sitting of the state legislatures, or when a secession in any state legislature shall prevent a quorum from being obtainable. After providing for the qualifications of the electors and the elected, and the duration of the legislature, there can be no danger in leaving the time of day or year, or place, where government will be undisturbed, and the voting by ballot or viva voce to be fixed, and that, in the second place, by the federal government. In the time of the late war the legislatures of New-York and Pennsylvania ordered elections for their invaded cities and counties to be held in other places, and
even at this day two districts of the county of Philadelphia elect in the city (which is a separate county in its own right) for the purpose of saving expense to the good people of those two districts. On due consideration of the fourth section, and remembering how it is limited by the other important and unalterable provisions of the constitution relating to elections, you will perceive, it is hoped, that the power given by that article is too small to affect the liberties of the people, and that it will prevent many serious inconveniences and evils.
It is asked by the writer of your state, who chuses to call himself a Plebeian in a free and equal government, which rejects every preposterous distinction of blood or titles—it is asked, I say, by this writer, what is the condition of our country? What is there in it disagreeable or alarming? Permit me to tell you. A single fact ought to fix our public credit in foreign countries—that so far from paying the principal or interest of money advanced in the hour of need and distress to purchase the means of establishing the independence of the United States, we have borrowed money to pay the interest—a greater proof of either the inability or disinclination, a stronger persuasive not to trust us more, cannot be given—this loan to pay the interest unhappily is upon interest also. The canker worm of interest upon interest is eating up the produce of our fields, and even the lands we cultivate. This, in regard to foreign credit, is the condition of our country. But let us look at home for some more pleasing facts. Tho' foreign powers do not receive their interest, what is the situation of private foreigners, who have placed their monies in our funds? They have thousands and tens of thousands in certificates, on some of which near half the amount of the original loan is due for interest. Ye friendly foreigners, who have given us your monies in the hour of our distress, have patience with us, till complicated evils shall teach us to seek the blessings of government, and we will pay you all. Tho' we do not render justice to our powerful supporters and allies, nor to their friendly subjects, do we give to our own citizens their due? Some of the states are paying a part of their arrears of interest in paper currencies, depreciated from seven and a half to eight per cent. The interest on others is paid in facilities or indents, worth but four shillings in the pound, and the remainder receive no interest at all. The medium value of the certificates of public debts, computing it upon the principal and interest, does not exceed twenty per cent. or one dollar for five. This then, in regard to public credit at home, is the condition of our country. But how stands private faith, and the obligations of contracts? Ask your merchants and other citizens, who have monies due in New-Jersey, the three southern states, and Rhode-Island. In Jersey and North-Carolina they can compel payment of their debts, but must receive a paper money, depreciated 25 per cent. In South Carolina an instalment law prevents them receiving more than one third of their demand, and that in a paper currency, worth no more than 16 or 17 shillings in the pound. In Georgia and Rhode-Island they have a paper lawful tender, depreciated four fifths. This then is the condition of our country, in regard to private business, to the utter subversion of common honesty, and the rights of property. 'Tis a posture of affairs, that would corrupt the angels of light, and the friends of virtue, and our country must shudder at the consequences of these alarming facts. How recent was the insurrection under Daniel Shays, and how much more recent was the business of the Genesee country, within your own territory and jurisdiction. 'Tis a case of delicacy, but it will serve to explain the present condition of America, if you develop that matter compleatly, and satisfy yourselves of the true reasons why Massachusetts sold so cheaply and hastily to one company their extensive and valuable grant. But I shall cease to lead your attention to obvious facts, which unhappily wants neither the feeble aid of my pen, nor those "powers of rhetoric" the Plebeian speaks of, to prove our situation most painful and alarming.
The consequences to your state, which may follow the rejection of the proposed constitution, should certainly engage a great share of your deliberations. In the event of nine states adopting, Jersey and Connecticut will no longer receive their supplies through you, nor send their produce to your market for sale, for you will then be on the footing of foreigners. This must enable both those states to make commercial establishments of their own, more respectable than they can ever be if you continue in the American union. 'Tis evident that so far as they succeed it must be entirely at the expence of your trade, especially Jersey, which has at present none of her own. In your capital are many foreign merchants, whose object is the trade of the United States and not of New-York only. These gentlemen, with many of your native merchants, will find it impossible to contend with the embarrassments that must ensue, should New-York become a foreign state. The manufactures of your state will suffer equally with your commerce, in the event of your ceasing to be a part of the union, for you cannot support a duty of five per cent. upon all your articles, greater imports on particulars, and prohibitions of others, will be unqueestionably take place. Your farmers will be still more deeply injured in the sale of their produce, should your state unhappily place herself on the footing of foreign countries. The amount of the injury to them may be easily ascertained, by examining how much iron, flour, biscuit, Indian-corn, hams, lard, butter, tallow, &c. and other produce of their farms, are exported to the eastern and southern states. These things will be most seriously felt throughout the whole commonwealth, but to the islands of New-York, Long-Island and Staten-Island they will be almost ruinous. These three districts must act together, they are peculiarly placed by nature. Should they fear the ruin of their commerce and manufactures, and the foreign duty on such of their produce as they may send to the ports of the new union, should these considerations induce the honest opponents of the Constitution among them to adhere to the new confederacy, what can prevent their secession? If Staten-Island were to allocate herself with New-Jersey, to which nature has almost joined her, and the Islands of New-York and Long-Island with Connecticut, those two respectable states, and the new union itself, would be bound to defend them. They would be at peace till attacked by you, and before your people would commence any hostile proceedings, they would consider well the enormous expence of an offensive war, they would remember the dangers to which an invading army is subjected, and they would not be unmindful of the inequality of the force with which your dismembered state would have to contend. Vermont too, seizing the opportunity, might at once effect her separation from you, and maintain her independency. New-York and the former union have for certain reasons thought fit to overlook her suppresion of your authority. There can be little doubt but those reasons, strengthened by her connexion with the new union and the secession of your three islands, would secure the peaceful independency of those four valuable districts.
In such a state of matters, what would be the depreciation of your public securities, what the depreciation of your paper medium, what the consequent discontent among your own people, and what the injuries to commerce by a fluctuating and wounded currency?
Suppose for a moment the city and county of New-York to have separated themselves from your government. Both banks of the Hudson would then belong to the new confederacy. The destruction of your foreign trade must be the inevitable consequence, for a heavy toll might be laid on every ship that should pass between the Island of New-York and the county of Bergen—or a total prohibition might prevent their passing at all.
To compleat your difficulties, internal discord would rend the bosom of your state. Without derogating from the wealth, character or abilities of the gentlemen who oppose the constitution, you will readily admit that there is a very numerous, intelligent and respectable part of every county in your state attached to the union, and friendly to the proposed government. Between these and the opposing interest there would be a never ceasing and ruinous contention.
Tho' the United States are not now, nor are not, as we conceive intended to be under a general government, competent to internal purposes, yet we are so far one people, that all general national maxims apply forcibly and properly to our situation. Among them is one dear to the friends of liberty, that the voice of the people is the voice of God. If we review the treatment the proposed constitution has received from other conventions, we shall find that, instead of half, nearly two thirds of the states have already adopted it—and that these contain not only a majority, but two thirds of the free people of the Union. Virginia too will certainly ratify it. An adoption by your State now, may therefore be considered as an acquiescence in the sense of the majority of the nation, of which we form a part—THE GREAT LAW OF REPUBLICAN GOVERNMENT.

To the honorable the Legislature of the State of New-York. The Petition of the subscribers, Freeholders and Inhabitants of the Town of Lansingburgh, in the Patent of Stoneyacra, in the county of Albany. Most humbly sheweth,
THAT the Freeholders and inhabitants of the said town, or the major part of them, have, at great expense, purchased lots of ground in the said town, and made settlements and improvements thereon, for the purpose of carrying on an extensive trade and commerce, and promoting the population of that part of the country. That experience has taught your petitioners, that the regulation of the internal police of the said town, by the votes of the Freeholders and inhabitants, or by a committee by them annually chosen for the purpose, is attended with great difficulties and em- barrassments, which daily increase and multiply.
That the said Freeholders and inhabitants, for want of being incorporated, cannot obtain a grant of a considerable tract of land, which has been generously promised to them, as commons for fuel and pas- ture, for the use and be of the said Freeholders and inhabitants, by means whereof their prosperity and mercantile prospects may be greatly diminish- ed. For remedy whereof, and in order to answer the beneficial purposes intended by your petitioners, they are desirous that the Freeholders and inhabitants, re- siding within the following boundaries and limits, may be incorporated, viz. Beginning at a certain pitch pine stump, standing on the east bank of Hud- son's river, opposite the south end of Whale Island, and running thence S. 69, E. 178 chains, ag- reeable as the same was run and settled between Stephen Van Ranselaer, Esq. and Abraham Jacob Lansing. Thence N. 19, 45, E. 286 chains and 50 links, as the same was also run and settled between Stephen Van Ranselaer, Esq. and Abraham Jacob Lansing. Thence W. to the mouth of the Herkberg Kill, at Hudson's river, to low water mark, as the magnetic needle pointed in the year 1760; and from thence down along the river, until opposite the said stump, and from thence to the said stump.
Your petitioners therefore pray, that an act may be passed, to incorporate the Freeholders and inhabi- tants residing within the limits aforesaid, by the name of the Trustees of the Freeholders and inhabi- tants of the Town of Lansingburgh. That the office to be named in the said act may be several, to wit: Abraham Jacob Lansing, John Van Ranselaer, Joaminus Hoogland, Flores Banker, Elijah James, Aaron Ward, and John G. Yates. That the Freeholders and inhabitants aforesaid may be enabled annually to choose seven trustees, to keep up a regular succession: That the name of Aaron Lane may be inserted in the said act, as clerk of the said town; Christopher Tillman, Esq. as treasurer; and David Henry, as marshal; and that their successors in office may likewise be annually chosen as aforesaid: And that the Legislature will be pleased to grant such powers, jurisdictions, and privileges to the trustees of the said town, and for the regulation of its internal police, as the legislature in their wisdom shall deem meet and expedient. And your petitioners will ever pray.
Signed by AB. JACOB LANSING, And above 100 others, Freeholders and inhabi- tants residing within the limits aforesaid described. Lansingburgh, March 8, 1788.
IN ASSEMBLY, March 11th, 1788. Resolved, if the Honorable the Senate concur here- in, that Abraham Jacob Lansing and other Freehol- ders and Inhabitants of Lansingburgh, in the town of Rensselaerwyck in the County of Albany, have leave to present to either House of the Legislature on the second Monday after a prorogation of both houses shall be convened at their next meeting, after the first Monday in July next, a Bill to incorporate the Freeholders and Inhabitants of Lansingburgh, pro- vided, that the petitioners do cause a copy of their said petition, and a copy of this resolution, to be pub- lished six weeks successively in one of the public newspapers printed in the city of New-York, and in one of the public newspapers printed in the city of Albany, to the end, that any person who may conceive his interest affected thereby, may appear at the Bar of either house, and shew cause against the passing such bill.
