ADDRESS
TO THOMAS JEFFERSON.
President of the United States.
SIR,
The General Assembly of the State of Rhode-Island and Providence Plantations, in behalf of themselves and of their constituents, embrace the earliest opportunity to present you their sincere and respectful congratulations on your election to the office of Chief Magistrate of the United States; and to express their entire approbation of the principles which, in your Address to a portion of our fellow-citizens, on the fourth of March last, you declared would be the basis of your administration.
Trusting to the wisdom and goodness of the Supreme Ruler of the Universe to afford you every necessary assistance, in the discharge of the duties of so arduous and important a station, we have the strongest hope and the fullest confidence, that in carrying those principles into effect, you will preserve the peace and promote the prosperity and happiness of your fellow citizens. It is with the utmost satisfaction we observe, that the Constitution of the United States is universally considered as a safeguard of our liberty and independence, the strongest bulwark against foreign invasion, and a sure protection against internal commotions. Unanimity of opinion, in all important questions, is devoutly to be wished; and we sincerely hope that notwithstanding a difference in sentiment may prevail, a spirit of candor, moderation, charity and forbearance towards one another, will preserve a general harmony.
The people of this State being circumscribed within narrow limits, and some of their principal towns relying chiefly on commerce for their support, and having in the bosom of the state one of the best harbors in the world, they feel a particular interest in the prosperity of commerce: They are therefore happy in the assurance, and have no doubt, that under your administration, commerce will be protected, and as the handmaid of agriculture, receive every suitable encouragement.
A Republican form of government is considered by the Citizens of the State of Rhode-Island, as their birth-right, and the government of the United States being the union of Independent Republics, for the good of the whole; will ever receive their firm support.
Accept, Sir, our best wishes for your individual health and happiness, and the expression of our sincere desire, that your fellow citizens may always hail you with the grateful plaudit, "well done thou good and faithful servant."
By the desire and in behalf of the General Assembly of the State of Rhode-Island and Providence Plantations.
ARTHUR FENNER.
PRESIDENT'S ANSWER.
Washington, May 26, 1801.
SIR,
I return my grateful thanks to the General Assembly of the State of Rhode-Island and Providence Plantations, for the congratulations which, on behalf of themselves and their constituents, they have been pleased to express on my election to the chief Magistracy of the United States: and I learn with pleasure their approbation of the principles declared by me on that occasion; principles which flowed sincerely from the heart and judgment, and which with sincerity, will be pursued. While acting on them, I ask only to be judged with truth and candor.
To preserve the peace of our fellow citizens, promote their prosperity and happiness, reunite opinion, cultivate a spirit of candor, moderation, charity and forbearance towards one another, are objects calling for the efforts and sacrifices of every good man and patriot. Our religion enjoins it; our happiness demands it; and no sacrifice is necessary but of passions hostile to both.
It is a momentous truth, and happily of universal impression on the public mind,
that our safety rests on the preservation of our union. Our citizens have wily formed themselves into one nation as to others, and several States as among themselves. To the United Nation belongs our external and mutual relations: To each State severally the care of our persons, our property, our reputation, and religious freedom. This wise distribution, if carefully preserved, will prove, I trust, from example, that while small governments are better adapted to the ordinary objects of society, larger confederations more effectually secure Independence and the preservation of Republican government.
I am sensible of the great interest which your State justly feels in the prosperity of commerce. It is of vital interest also to the States more agricultural, whose produce, without commerce, could not be exchanged. As the Handmaid of Agriculture, therefore, Commerce will be cherished by me, both from principle and duty.
Accept, I beseech you, for the General Assembly of the State of Rhode-Island and Providence Plantations, the homage of my high consideration and respect, and I pray God to have them always in his safe and holy keeping.
THOMAS JEFFERSON.
His Excellency Gov- ERNOR FENNER. }
EXTRACT from GALLATIN'S Sketch of Finances of the United States written in 1796.
(Continued.)
The parts of the debt which will remain unprovided for, are,
1 st . The foreign debt which, on the 1 st of January, 1796, consisted of about twelve millions of dollars, but which, by the payment of the instalment that falls due during the year 1796, and has been provided for by the five million loan, will be reduced to about 11,600,000 dollars.
2 dly . The five and a half per cent. and four and a half per cent. stocks, amounting to about 2,000,000 dollars.
3 dly . The instalments due after the year 1796 to the bank, and not provided for by the five million loan, amounting to 1,600,000 dollars.
4 thly . The anticipations necessary during the years 1796 and 1797, (exclusively of the loans that may be requisite to pay any part of the principal of the debt, estimated at 800,000 dollars.
5 thly . The new five million loan, which, being irredeemable for twenty-three years, cannot be extinguished except by purchases.
6 thly . The three per cent. stock, amounting to about 19,300,000 dollars, which, on account of its low rate of interest, is not susceptible of any extinguishment, except by purchases, or by a new modification of the debt.
Those different sums somewhat exceed forty millions of dollars; but the four first items, which seem alone to be the object of redemption by an application of revenue, amount altogether to sixteen millions of dollars. They are all, the five and half per cent. and four and half per cent. stocks excepted, payable by instalments due before the year 1810; and although the amount of the yearly payable instalments is not equal every year, yet as some of the Dutch loans may, according to the terms of the contract, be discharged by government as much earlier as they please, the total sum to be paid each year may be so equalized and modified as to render the discharge of the whole practicable, before the year 1810, with an uniform revenue. It is proposed to make provision for that payment, during that period, by an additional revenue, and as it is not possible that any new revenue, even if raised by Congress at their next session, can be productive before the year 1798, the term proposed for the redemption of those sixteen millions will be twelve years from the first of January 1798, to the first of January, 1810.
The interest payable on those sixteen millions may, when calculating the revenue necessary to discharge the principal, be estimated at an average of about five per cent. A debt of sixteen millions, bearing an interest of five per cent. will be discharged in
twelve years by a revenue somewhat exceeding one million of dollars. But as the eleven hundred thousand dollars necessary to pay the annuity on the deferred stock, will not be wanted till the year 1801 for that purpose, and if raised from the year 1798, may in the mean while be applied to discharge the three millions and a half of the debt of sixteen millions; this, being thus reduced to twelve millions and a half, will be discharged in twelve years, by a revenue of about 800,000 dollars. This sum added to the 1,100,000 dollars, which are at all events necessary to pay the annuity on the deferred stock, form an aggregate of 1,900,000 dollars, the revenue necessary to be raised for twelve years.
Through the means of that revenue, not only sixteen millions of the debt shall have been redeemed, but an annuity equal to about 780,000 dollars, the interest payable thereon, will be liberated, and form an actual addition to our present revenue. If during the same period the resources to be derived from the lands of the United States, which will next be taken under consideration, are applied to the three per cent stock, so as to liberate an annuity of 320,000 dollars, these two sums will be sufficient to pay the annuity on the deferred stock, and the whole of the additional revenue of 1,900,000 dollars may cease after the year 1809. On the other hand, if only the 1,100,000 dollars are raised from the year 1801, that additional revenue must continue till the year 1824. The difference between raising what must at all events be raised, to wit, 1,100,000 dollars, only from after the year 1800, putting off the increase of taxes and revenue to the last moment, and raising 1,900,000 dollars from the year 1798, consists in the difference between taxes of 1,100,000 dollars for twenty-four years, and taxes of 1,900,000 dollars for twelve years; or (as 1,100,000 dollars must by both plans be raised for twelve years) it consists in the difference between immediate taxes of 800,000 dollars for twelve years, and taxes of 1,100,000 dollars also for twelve years, but beginning twelve years hence. Supposing the country to be so far progressing in prosperity, that 1,100,000 dollars of taxes will not be more heavy, twelve years hence, than 8,000,000 dollars now are, still the sole advantage which arises from a postponement, is present enjoyment, and putting off a burthen which must necessarily come at that time. The loss is manifest; for although the same burthen must then be borne, the debt remains unpaid. Should we not raise that revenue at present, to a momentary relief, we shall have sacrificed sixteen millions of dollars, we shall have lost the present time, we shall have lost an almost certain period of peace and prosperity; and although we cannot command future events, we shall have to encounter them, at that time, as unprovided and as enfeebled as we now are.
MISCELLANEOUS ARTICLES
Extracted from late London Prints for the National Intelligencer.
A new sect of Fanatics, calling themselves Ezekielites , have it seems, made their appearance in some of the Northern counties. They are said to have united political disaffection with their Fanaticism. The following verses of Ezekiel have been converted into an Oath, which ministerial papers are anxious to represent as having been taken by great numbers:
CHAP. XXI VERSES 25, 26, 27.
"And thou prophane wicked Prince of Israel, whose day is come, when iniquity shall have an end.
"Thus saith the Lord God, remove the diadem, and take off the crown:—this shall not be the same.—Exalt him that is low, and abase him that is high.
"I will overturn, overturn, overturn it; and it shall be no more, until he come whose right it is, and I will give it him."
We cannot believe that this ridiculous kind of disaffection can have spread; but of this we are quite sure, that the surest way to defeat the projects of these ridiculous sects is, to treat them with contempt. They may become dangerous, if they are in any way persecuted.
The present seems to be the heroic age of English poetry. The last twelvemonth has produced four epic poems. A critic, with much judgment and commendable caution, says of one of them, that though not quite equal to the Iliad and Paradise Lost, it is decidedly the best Epic Poem of the year!
The new Jacobins are said to be prophets. We hope among the new Ministry will be found some conjurors to match them. The crimes of inspiration will require supernatural checks.
An eminent Dignitary lately declared from the pulpit, that the alliance between Church and State was designed not to make the Church political, but the State religious. It is to be regretted that this alliance must, on such a supposition, rank with other alliances, from which one at least of the parties has reaped very little advantage.
The new impost which Mr. Pitt has laid upon paper, added to the late extraordinary advance in its price (50 per cent. within the last eighteen months), will amount very nearly to a prohibition to literary publication. It is believed that this most impolitic and oppressive tax will occasion a less revenue to be derived from the article than it yielded before.
In Dean Swift's voyage to the Houyhnhums, we find some prophetic allusions to what has happened in our days: "The palace," he says "of a chief minister is a seminarian to breed up others in his own trade; the pages, lacquies and porter, by imitating their master, become ministers of state in their respective districts; accordingly they have a subaltern court paid to them by persons of the best rank: and sometimes, by the force of dexterity and impudence, arrive through several gradations to be successors to their Lord!"
A correspondent has sent us the following report in a letter from Hamburg. We certainly do not vouch for its truth, but it may amuse as well as other reports:
"The Archduke Charles is to marry mademoiselle Beauharnois, daughter of Madame Bonaparte. She is one of the most amiable, virtuous young women in France; many proposals of marriage have been made to her, by young men attached to the government of the day, but she has always declared she never would marry any man, nor the son of any man, concerned, either directly or indirectly with the revolution of France. For these two years she has employed herself in the institution of female schools of industry, and superintending the management of them."
SUSSEX SPORTING—Capt. Newland, of the Sussex militia, having betted a considerable sum that he would ride 140 miles in 12 successive hours; he started on Long Down Hill on Thursday morning at six o'clock, and handsomely performed the distance in seven hours and 34 minutes (principally on hack-horses from the Swan, at Chichester) to the astonishment of a very great assemblage of sporting Gentlemen.
   Miles.     The 1 st hour he rode 21 1-2   2 d 18   3 d 20   4 th 18   5 th 20   6 th 16 1-2   7 th 17 1-2   Last 34 minutes, 8 1-2   140  
N. B. He rode the 100 miles in five hours and five minutes, in which time he met with a fall, was once obliged to change his horse, as he became restive, and was once run away with a considerable distance out of the course. The posts were placed on the admeasured line of the two miles, and he went very considerably without them: so that he certainly went a much greater distance than 140 miles; and it is here looked on as a most extraordinary performance.

Our readers may perhaps be amused with the following record of the fashionable entertainments of the inhabitants of Botany Bay. Who knows but the drama and the stage may derive support from this colony? We need scarcely add, that at the enchanting representation mentioned below, all the spectators were transported !

EPIGRAM
ON A MODERN THRASO.
How kind has nature unto Bluster been Who gave him dreadful looks and dauntless mien; Gave tongue to swagger, eyes to strike dismay; And kinder still gave legs—to run away!
The ministerial papers have for the present broken off the alliance between Jacobinism and Atheism, and put the former in a "strange, uncouth, and unnatural alliance" with the Bible. It is not Tory PAIN , but EXETER that is now the favorite of disaffection. We know not what all this will lead to; but when we consider the nature of our present wiseacre Rulers, we should not be surprised if it were intended to suspend the Bible as well as the Idæus Corpus for a time to be limited. In perfect confidence with the old cant, they may think it necessary to give up a part of the Bible , as well as the constitution, for the preservation of the whole!
From the London Morning Chronicle .
POLITICAL POETRY.
MR. EDITOR,
In your papers a few days ago I saw with surprise a paragraph, containing an illiberal reflection on the poets of the present day, as either negligent or incapable of sounding the praise of statesmen. I could have wished, Sir, that the author of that paragraph had adverted to the great change in administration, which has thrown a gloom over the regions of Parnassus, and reduced the whole tribe of poets to the irregularity of the ode, or the dulness of blank verse.
The cause of the change of administration has been laid to be without reason. I am sure, Sir, it is without rhyme. When you blame the sterility of the poets, why not consider that they are deprived of subject and matter? In the last administration we had names dear to the lovers of rhyme. What a variety of rhymes to the monosyllabic Pitt , and the disyllabic Dundas ? These were men whose deeds could be hitched with equal propriety in iambics and in trochees; but who can make any thing of Addington ? What regular measure is Hawkesbury capable of? Whose ear is not offended with Castleleigh ? Who can scan Sir John Mitford , or match Lord Westmoreland ? What can come in contact with Lord Glenbervie , or echo the praises of Mr. Charles Abbot ? People seem to think that poets are a kind of mechanics that
work without tools. See what kind of tools they have to work with, and learn, Mr. Editor, a little more candor. Ask Mr. Small Pybus (and no man handles a bad subject better) what he would do with such names? No, Sir, our new ministers may be good politicians; but they are sworn foes to prosody: look at them individually, can you verify a man of them? Look at them as a body; what long syllables and short syllables; what a mixture of trochees and spondees; here a long line and there a short one; here a foot too much and there a foot too little. What lame, hobbling rhymes must he make who expects regular measures from such subjects?
The age of poetry is not gone, Mr. Editor; but poets cannot work without materials, and if ministers are chosen that have not a name, it is not our fault if they must be excluded from the honors of poetry, and if we must deny even Lord Hawkesbury, who has so often talked of a march; if, I say, we must deny even him,
"The long majestic march, and energy divine."
Nor, Sir, we might as well attempt to epigrammatize Baron Haugwitz, or find rhymes for Czartorinski, Dzierzenowski, count Rastopschin, or the beauties of Hildburghausen.
I am, Sir, for self and brothers, Your humble servant, TIMOTHY TAGG.
NAVY DEPARTMENT, June 7th, 1801.
Regulations for ascertaining and fixing the Pensions, and payment of pensions on the Navy establishment of the United States.
Obtain a pension the party must produce to the secretary of the Navy a certificate from the commander of the ship or vessel on board of which he sustained the injury, which incapacitates him; or in the case of a marine, from the commanding officer of the marine corps, or commander of a detachment as the case may require; in the latter case however, if the injury happened on board a vessel of war, the certificate of the surgeon will also be required, if on shore, that of some respectable medical character of the place, that the same was received while he was acting in the line of his duty, specifying the nature and amount of the disability, the capacity or station in which he acted, and the monthly pay to which he was entitled at the time of sustaining the injury. On such certificate being produced, and it being ascertained to the satisfaction of the Secretary of the Navy, that the disability fully exists and is likely to continue, he will at once direct the applicant to be placed on the books of the Loan Office of the state in which he resides, and the loan officer will make the payments half yearly, viz. On the 1st of January, and 1st of July, to the party in person or his legal attorney during his life or the continuance of his disability. But if the pension is to be paid on a power of attorney, the loan officer must have it ascertained by the certificate of a Justice of the peace of the country where the pensioner resides, that he was living, and that his disability continued, in the month next preceding that in which payment is to be made every year, and must transmit the same to the Accountant of the Navy with the necessary receipts as vouchers for his payments.
Each person to be placed on the pension list, must receive at the Navy Office a certificate in the following form.
A. B. Seaman, &c. having been disabled in the service of the United States, on board of the ship of war _____ while acting in the line of his duty, is entitled to receive dollars per month, from the loan officer of the state of _____ payable half yearly, on the 1st of January and 1st of July in every year during his life or continuance of such disability, to commence from the _____ day of _____
The same will be paid to him in person or on his legal power of attorney. But no money will be paid on a power of attorney, unless the said A. B. shall send to the loan officer of said state, the certificate of a Justice of peace of the county wherein he resides, that he the said A. B. appeared before the said justice in the month preceding that in which the payment is to be made and that his disability still continued.
Signed BENJ. STODDERT.
The foregoing regulations are still in force. By order,

WASHINGTON CITY.
WEDNESDAY, JULY 1, 1801.
Yesterday the Editor of the National Intelligencer was required to give his attendance at the Circuit Court, to enter into recognizance to appear on the ensuing term to answer a charge of libel on the Judiciary of the United States; to which effect recognizance was immediately entered into by him in the sum of 1,000 dollars. No sureties were required by the court. But previously to this being understood, a number of the most respectable citizens of Washington and George-Town unofficially offered to enter into such recognizance as should be required.
The Editor is not able distinctly to state the grounds on which the charge of libel is founded, as he has considered the affair too unimportant, in its present stage, to occupy an attention necessarily devoted to other objects. But from an Alexandria Paper, it appears that the prosecution originates from a publication, under the signature of "A Friend to impartial Justice," which appeared on the 12th ult. in the National Intelligencer.
By a recent judicial decision a citizen has been severely punished, under the doctrine of contempt, by a court, without the concurrence of a jury, for animadvertting on a sending prosecution. The Editor, aware of this circumstance, will, for the present, repress all animadversion.
Yesterday a TALK was delivered to the Secretary at War, by a delegation of Southern Indians, on a visit to the President of the United States.
Peace was concluded the 8th of March between the Regency of Tunis and Denmark.
Latest Foreign Intelligence.
Received by the schooner Sarah , bringing French papers to the 6th of May.
PARIS, May 2—5.
"Alexandria I. the new Emperor of Russia, has intimated to Lord Nelson and Admiral Parker, that in case any hostile measures should be taken against the Northern Confederacy, they must consider themselves responsible for the consequences."
"The united armies of France and Spain continue their march against Portugal."
"The British Government has answered the Senate of Hamburg, in reply to a remonstrance on the subject, that vessels navigating under the Hamburg flag shall pass free from molestation by his Britannic majesty's vessels of war."
"One of the transports composing part of Admiral Gantheaume's fleet, having separated from it, has been fallen in with by an English cruiser, captured, and carried into Mahon."
May 4.
It was published yesterday, and we now repeat it, that the Government has received official dispatches from Egypt, which confirm the accounts which have prevailed for some time, that the English have been totally defeated.
The minister of the marine has received from Citizen Veni, the marine prefect of Toulon, a report dated 1st Floreal, in which we read the following details:—
One of the vessels under the command of Citizen Baux, which failed for Egypt, the 28th Ventose, by orders of General Gantheaume, was taken by the British, when about 20 leagues from land, and sent into Mahon.
The captain and crew, which were sent back in a Cartel, arrived at Marcellies the 29th Germinal.
The captain writes to his agent, who is now at Toulon, that an English frigate, which failed from Alexandria the 3d of Germinal, and arrived at Mahon the 11th, has brought the news that the English were completely defeated by General Menou. He adds, that this intelligence has spread the utmost consternation throughout Mahon.
TOULON, April 22.
From Mahon we learn, that the English were totally defeated in Egypt in different actions, which took place on the 26th and 27th of Germinal (15th and 16th April). This news arrived by a vessel, which was sent by express from Alexandria, the 28th Germinal (17th April) for Toulon; and which on her passage, was taken by an En-
glish cruiser, and carried into Mahon. The English, they say, are in the utmost consternation; their feet in the Mediterranean being in want of every thing, and the ships' crews being in a very sickly state. All the ports in Italy being shut against them, they will shortly be forced to leave those seas, in order to re-victual, and to avoid perishing by epidemic.
ROME, April 5.
According to letters from Sinigaglia and Ancona, the English constrained to abandon Egypt, have gone into the islands of the Levant; and have taken possession of Corfu and other ex-Venetian isles.—But this news is not founded at present on any authentic advices.
STRASBURG, May 2.
Citizen Duroc, chief of brigade, and first aid-de-camp to the First Consul, passed just now through this city, on his way to Peterburgh. He had with him four officers of the consular guard, and a number of servants. He is sent on a mission to compliment Alexander the first, on his accession to the throne, and to cement the bonds of friendship, which united the French republic and the Emperor of Russia. He will be followed, as is reported, by Colonel La Harpe, ex-director of the Helvetic republic, late tutor of Alexander the first, entrusted with a particular mission from the First Consul.
COPENHAGEN, April 21.
Yesterday we received a declaration from Alexander the I. officially communicated by the Russian minister, in which his Imperial majesty expresses a hope that harmony and good understanding will soon be restored between Great Britain and the Northern Powers; in which expectation he has charged his minister to notify to the admirals Parker and Nelson, that he will hold them responsible for all acts of hostility against said powers. This declaration was immediately sent to admiral Parker.
CONSTANTINOPLE, March 21.
Pasawan Oglou is dangerously ill, since his arrival at Widdien, whither he has retired: many of his partisans have left him.
STUTGARD, (Germ.) April 22.
The papers announce that the Prussian troops in Franconia, under the command of Prince Hohenlohe-Ingelfingen, were in motion on the 6th inst. to occupy, in the name of the Prince of Orange, the Bishoprics of Wurzburg and Bamberg.
We also learn from Hildesheim, that they will occupy that bishopric. The regiment of Schladen is expected there for that purpose.
MADRID, April 15.
Every thing is in motion here—Magazines of provisions for eight months are provided, and we only wait the arrival of the French to open the campaign. It appears that they are to be on the frontiers before the beginning of May. The Ambassador Buonaparte and Gen. St. Cyr assure us, that on the 10th April, 22,000 men were assembled at Bayonne, who were to march without delay for their destination.
In the ports of Carthagena, Cadiz, Ferrol and Bayonne, the greatest activity is used in fitting for sea all the ships of war. It is conjectured by many that another expedition to Egypt is contemplated; and if a sufficient number of seamen do not offer, an order for their impressment will be issued.
NEW-YORK, June 26.
Captain Laurin, arrived last evening from Bordeaux, informs us,
The French troops were daily marching through that place, on their way to Bayonne, destined against Portugal. The forces to be employed on that occasion were to consist of 50,000 men. Lucien Buonaparte, (brother of the first Consul) commands a regiment of cavalry, in that army.
It was reported at Bordeaux, that the French had obtained a victory over the English in Egypt—and that two English Ambassadors had arrived at Paris from London, to negotiate for a peace between the two countries.
The duke of Parma was daily expected at Bordeaux, where great preparations were made to receive him.
The vessels belonging to the northern powers were still embargoed in Bordeaux.
The day captain Laurin left Bordeaux, off the Cordovan, he spoke an English frigate, who informed him, that the British army had defeated the French in Egypt.

June 27. Letters from Bordeaux, by the Sarah, mention, that official letters were in circulation from the American consul at Algiers, stating that the Tripolitan cruisers were out—and that American vessels in Barcelona were arming for their defence at home.
The two last Paris papers, the 5th and 6th, do not contain a syllable of Egyptian news.
Tiers Consolidés, at Paris, on the 6th ult. were at 54 livres 75 cents. Yesterday afternoon arrived the ship Citizen from Liverpool in 50 days. From a gentleman passenger we learn, that on the 10th inst. spoke the brig Fox, from Palermo, bound to Boston, by whom they were informed, that general Abercromby was dead of the wounds he received in the battle of Rhamania on the 21st March; and that he was buried in Sicily on the 26th April. This gentleman further informs us that the opinion was, from the defeats which the French had suffered in Egypt, the contest in that part of the world would be speedily brought to a conclusion, by the capitulation of what remained of the French army.
A letter from Palermo to a gentleman in New-York, dated 25th April states—That the engagement between the French and English in Egypt, was chiefly with the bayonet, and continued for five days; that the French were 16000 strong, and the English 14,000—that the former suffered immense loss, and were compelled to retreat into Alexandria. This was said to have been received officially by the British resident at Palermo. The letter also states that general Abercrombie and 180 officers were among the slain.—But this is probably a mistake, as a vessel was spoke by the Citizen arrived last evening, the captain of which informed, that colonel Abercrombie was killed in the above engagement.
BOSTON, June 23, 1801. Restoration of LIE BERCEAU. Yesterday the French corvette, Le Berceau, captured last fall by the United States frigate Boston, was surrendered to the French officer appointed to receive her, and hoisted the tri-coloured ensign. On the performance of this ceremony, the corvette fired a salute, which was returned by the United States frigate Constitution. The corvette is moored in the road; and appears to be in an excellent state of repair.
FROM ITALY. Capt. SAWYER, from Palermo, in the island of Sicily, which he left the 27th April, informs, that he saw a letter from Malta, which related that Sir RALPH ABERCROMBIE was buried at Malta the 17th April.—He was slain, with another General officer, 100 officers, and 500 men, in a battle before Alexandria; in which the French were defeated, and driven into Alexandria; where they were besieged by the English.
Capt. Sawyer further informs, that, in passing down the Mediterranean, he saw a fleet of 17 armed vessels, which he supposed to be Tripolitan corsairs; and that they changed their course on the appearance of a British cruiser. June 10, lat. 42, long. 52, 30, spoke ship citizen Blackman, 34 days from Liverpool for New-York. June 21, spoke the schr. Nancy, White, from Salem, for Bourdeaux.

LANSINGBURGH, June 16. Northern Turnpike Road. Ten miles of this road are already surveyed, and a contract entered into for working it this summer. The contractors are men of industry and enterprise, and are well acquainted with their business. The directors are at present exploring and surveying a further ten miles of the road, which, we understand, will also be completed during the season. Perhaps no turnpike in the state, will, in proportion to its extent, be of greater utility to the public, or more productive to its proprietors. It will be the thorough-fare through which the produce of the northern part of this state, and the principal of the western district of Vermont must come to market and the soil over which it is to pass, is in general well calculated for constructing it and rendering it durable. The stock is nearly all taken up—about one hundred shares only remaining unsubscribed.
SALEM, June 19. The only successful way of restraining the Barbary pirates seems to be by cruising squadrons, or by tribute. The town of Algiers has braved the resentment of the most powerful states in christendom. Charles V. lost a fine fleet and army in an expedition against it, in 1541. The English burnt their vessels in the harbour in 1635 and 1670. It was bombarded by the French in 1683. In 1775, the Spaniards made a descent near the city, but were defeated with great slaughter. In 1784, they sent a fleet to attack the forts, but were repelled by the Algerines, although they made eight successful attacks.
Legislature of New-Hampshire.
On Monday the 8th ult. his Excellency the Governor, attended by his Council, met both Branches of the Legislature, in the Representatives chamber at Hopkinton and delivered the following
SPEECH: Mr. President, and Gentlemen of the Senate, Mr. Speaker, and Gentlemen of the House of Representatives: At the last session of the Legislature, a Resolution was passed, expressing their opinion, that one session for the present year would be sufficient to transact the necessary business of the State. It is presumed the Resolution was made public, that the respective Members might attend with the idea of remaining in session until the necessary business of the year was completed, if they should think proper. If you should think another session unnecessary, it may be proper at this time to provide for granting County-Taxes; also to affix those grants or salaries, which have been usually (though perhaps not more properly) made near the close of the year. A letter from his Excellency Governor Ogle, with certain resolutions of the State of Maryland, proposing alterations in the Constitution of the United States, as it respects the choice of Electors of President and Vice President, and of Representatives to Congress, will be laid before you, and will undoubtedly have all that consideration which the importance of the subject requires.
To preserve our National Government as the great cementing power over the several States, for the purposes for which it was originally designed, is highly important. Completely free in its principles, alterations may be made with facility; but due care should be taken, lest changes in its parts should ultimately injure the general system. If we consider the state of our Country previous to the adoption of the Federal Constitution, have we not the highest reason to rejoice in our prosperity, under the operation of that Government for twelve years past? Shall we be able to find, from any source of information whatever, that more favourable alterations have ever taken place in any Nation without its short a space of time?—Our almost lost public credit has been restored—our shipping and Foreign Commerce greatly increased, notwithstanding the unprovoked depredations which have been made thereon by several of the European Nations—large prices are obtained for the surplus Produce of our lands.—Labour and industry find a good reward.—Wealth has increased, and the general prosperity is very apparent; and while a large part of the European world with whom we have various connections, has been long involved in Wars of the most afflicting and destructive kind, our Country, by the wise and prudent measures of the Government, has been preserved from War, with one and another Nation, when appearances strongly indicated that it would not be prevented.
Diversity of opinions, respecting the choice of persons for managing the public concerns, and respecting the public measures most proper to be pursued, will exist in some degree. The division on those subjects has arisen to such a height in our Country, as must be lamented by all well informed honest men, however different their political tenets may otherwise be. It is not only a privilege, but the duty, of a free people, to examine the measures of Government; but this should always be done with candour, because all are liable to err. It ought not to be forgotten, that party spirit may destroy the best of Governments; and it is incumbent on all, more especially those who are entrusted with the management of public affairs, to endeavour to promote union and harmony of sentiment on rational and proper principles.
Many duties are assigned to Legislators and Magistrates by our State Constitution; a frequent recurrence to the principles there contained, is highly proper. In order to the preservation of a free government, it is necessary that the great
body of the people should be well informed; and that a just and proper sense of morality and religion be entertained; whatever, therefore, may with propriety be done, to further those important objects, becomes a duty.
Whatever measures you may think proper to adopt, will, so far as may depend on me, be attended to with candor: And be assured, gentlemen, that it will afford me great satisfaction to unite with you in endeavors to secure tranquility, advance the general welfare, and promote the lasting happiness of our fellow citizens.
