Boarding and Lodoing for

ALAMODE.
THE modern mode of female heads With new eclipse the sun o'er shades, Through which his face is scarcely seen The scanty intervals between.
The sun-robb'd woman, sung by John, Trod under foot the fickle moon, Which now again, rebellious risen, Holds rival reign in mimic heaven, And in eternal changes shows How fickle foolish fashion grows.
But chiefly thee, concave calash! My vengeful verse intends to lash; High towering o'er the starry host, In thee, the female face is lost, By monstrous canopy inshrouded, And sable hemisphere beclouded.
The swelling breast is built upon, Rising to meet the embracing sun; While, but a few degrees below, Projecting mountains adverse grow. The waist compress, an isthmus seems, Uniting these oppos'd extremes.
But how shall now the muse descend To paint the fair one's sweeping end? Had Fancy shar'd the least foresight, She ne'er had doom'd to dress in white. Of all the colors Iris wears, None with the dirt so ill compares.
From the London Gazette. VIENNA, August 27. The last letters from the Bannat advise, that the emperor arrived at Welkirchen on the 20th inst. Whilst his Imperial majesty was on his march, the Turks made strong efforts to penetrate into the heart of that province.
The loss of officers and men on the side of the Turks was very considerable, whilst that of the Austrians consisted only of five men killed and twenty-five wounded. The Turks have also attempted to penetrate into Transylvania. On the 13th and 14th inst. they attacked the two passes of Vulcaner and Buzzauer, in large bodies, and with the utmost intrepidity, overthrowing the first corps of Imperial troops opposed to them at each of those passes, and making a considerable slaughter; but fresh troops arriving successively to their defence, the Turks were finally repulsed, without being able to gain any firm footing in that province.
VIENNA, August 30.
Advices from the camp before Chotzim, of the 20th instant, mention, that notwithstanding the extreme distress of the garrison, which according to the reports of deserters, and of some prisoners of the combined army who had made their escape, had no other provision left than wheat spoiled by the fire and smoke, the garrison continued resolutely to hold out, and refused to surrender, in the hope of receiving speedy relief.
BERLIN, Sept. 2.

HARTFORD, Nov. 10.
Extract of a letter from a gentleman at Newport to the printers of this paper, dated Nov. 4.
"Our general assembly, which sat at Providence last week, finished their business, according to custom on Saturday evening, did not make a House before Thursday; they will call no Convention—have ordered 1-4th part of four per cent. state notes to be paid off in paper money at par, ordered Gov. Clinton's letter to be published and sent to the Town Clerks of every town, and town meetings to be called to choose delegates to meet delegates from other states, to consider of amendments to the new constitution, when and where they are to meet they have not pointed out. They have adjourned to the last of December, to meet at South-Kingston."
[True spirit of Rhode-Island policy.—The proceedings of their Assemblies have certainly the merit of uniformity; if uniformity in a long train of unjust and villainous conduct, can be allowed to possess merit. The making of paper money was the first object of their iniquitous policy. This was done with an express intent to injure and defraud just creditors, and it has effectually answered its end: And they are now about to consummate that plan, by paying off their honest state debts in their own depreciated paper money at its nominal value. Can any thing be more unjust? Was the edict of Louis XV. which compelled the creditors of the nation, in payment of their just debts, to accept his notes, depreciated next to nothing, more unjust, wicked and tyrannical?
But the Assembly of Rhode-Island seem at present to be established and comforted in their proceedings, by receiving Governor Clinton's letter. This they have ordered to be registered in the Town Clerk's Office, that it may be open to general inspection.
In conformity to this letter, the general assembly have ordered delegates to be chosen to confer with delegates from other states, upon the subject of amendments to the new constitution. Many powerful
arguments have been used in every state in favor of the proposed constitution; but the arguments in its favor, drawn from the proceedings of Rhode-Island, are the most powerful and uncontradictory of any that have been hitherto suggested.—It is an infallible sign of the justice and utility of laws, that they are obnoxious to rogues and villains; for as soon as a law prohibits their iniquitous practices, they desire an amendment of it. Thus Rhode-Island have yet discernment enough to see that the adoption of the new constitution, as it stands at present, will be an insuperable barrier to their unjust and wicked proceedings. It is no wonder, therefore, that they very cordially wish for some essential amendments and alterations. But a proposition of this kind, from that little insignificant, devoted spot of wickedness, to meet delegates from other states, on the subject of amendments to the new constitution, at a time when the new Congress are organizing, is an insult upon the good sense and dignity of the United States, and will doubtless be treated with the contempt it so highly deserves.]
ELIZABETH-TOWN, November 12.
A short time previous to last August term, one Shappee, an inhabitant of Minisink, and deputy-sheriff to Wm Keer, Esq; high sheriff of Sussex county, served a writ on one Nehemiah Patterson, of Ulster county, in the state of New-York; and let him go on his promising to attend the ensuing court at Newtown; but it seems he did not comply with his promise, and in excuse alleged, that the inundation of the water in the Navigating river prevented. Shappee, enraged at what he supposed an abuse, determined on revenge; and an opportunity soon offering he satiated it with his blood.—The following are the circumstances of the dread catastrophe. Mr. Patterson's wife being seized with a bilious complaint, which threatened her life, he went to call a physician, when passing the house of Shappee, he called him, and ordered him, in a very peremptory tone, to surrender himself up and go to court with him; but the other refused, when, after some altercation, Shappee seized an axe and threw it at him, then laid hold of a pistol, and snapped it at Mr. P. which did not do any damage, as his wife had previously taken the precaution to throw away the priming; but as if intent on blood, he then went into his house, took a musket, discharged it at Patterson, and lodged the contents in his arm, which proved mortal, and he expired on the third day after. An inquest sat on the body. Verdict—"Man's Slaughter." As this is not the first instance of hacks in office wantonly taking the lives of people, it is hoped he will receive the reward due to his desert.

To the Public. AN attempt having been made by a certain person, to occasion a belief of his having my receipt for preparing the SPECIFIC SOLUTION; I do solemnly declare, that no one (except a gentleman of the medical line, in the state of Maryland, whose honor I could rely on for keeping it to himself) ever had from me the receipt; that the discovery is entirely my own, made during my residence in the island of St. Kitts, where I had under my care (as Surgeon to the estate of the Hon. John Julius, Esq. and general Mathew) upwards of 500 negroes, for more than two years; that during my practice on those estates seventy-four Venereal patients came under my care, that the Specific Remedy was the only one used, and that it never failed me: To prove which, any gentleman is heartily welcome to peruse a certificate given me by the Hon. John Julius, on my resigning the practice of the estate.—As a regular bred Surgeon, I never should have offered a nostrum to the public, but being a very pious person, rendered by disease incapable of attending much to out door practice, I could not conceive it derogatory to the dignity of physical character to bring home that business which want of health would not allow my attending abroad. The public may rest assured that no person has my receipt for the preparing the Specific Remedy, and will therefore guard against its being intruded upon them as such. S H E E D. Nov. 14. 2w No. 70, Cherry-street.

The discovery is entirely new, and asserted to be free from any Mercurial preparation whatever. Persons travelling either by land or water, may have it put up for them with printed directions, on notice of half an hour. Sept. 25.

COAL TAR. A Quantity of this Tar, and of black and clear Varnish extracted from Coal, is just arrived, to be sold for ready money only, by Charles Wilkes, No. 12, Hanover-square. The sole Agent in America for the British Tar Company. THE superior excellence of this Tar in preserving the bottoms of vessels from the worms, and in keeping them clean, has been proved by repeated experiments. It has been also found to be an effectual preservative of cast and wrought iron from rust. A description of the different kinds of Coal Tar and Varnish made by the British Tar Company, and of the various uses they may be applied to with the greatest advantage, with directions for using them, may be had as above. 29th Sept. 1788.
The following Certificate of an Experiment made in New-York, is added for the information of the Public. New-York, April 26, 1788. WE the subscribers do hereby certify that on or about the 18th June last, we attended at Van Tuyl's wharf, on the East river, in this city, where we examined three pieces of timber, all of the same dimensions, oneayed over with Lord Dundonald's late invented Coal Tar, the other, two pieces with a stout thick coat of common ship stuff (pitch, tar, oil, and sulphur); that we afterwards saw them all chained to and sunk along side said wharf.
That nearly six months after, to wit, on the 5th of December following, we again attended at said wharf, when in our presence they were all taken up, and on examining them, the piece done over with the Coal Tar appeared clean and entirely free from grass and barnacles, the other pieces were both very foul, one of them was almost covered with barnacles; that on cutting them in several places we found the worms in full possession of the two pieces payed with the ship stuff, scarcely an inch living escaped them. The piece done over with the Coal Tar was perfectly free from them, and as found and fresh as when put down. From the above experiment we are fully of opinion that the Coal Tar will preserve the bottom of ships from barnacles and the worms, and is worthy of the greatest encouragement.
