HISTORY
OF THE Last Session of Congress.
[CONCLUDED]
BEFORE the foregoing detail of proceedings, other objects of much interest occupied the attention of the legislature.
Aliens. An act passed, admitting aliens to the rights of citizenship, abrogates the former restrictions heretofore imposed, and in accordance with the sentiments of the chief magistrate, lessens the period of probation, not however to the abandonment of regulations circumlocutory and calculated to conciliate, by internal provisions, the varying opinions of those who deemed it politic to encourage or repress an early access to the full enjoyment of political rights.
By the act of June 18, 1798, a residence in the United States of fourteen years, and a declaration of an intention to become a citizen, made five years before admission, were required before an alien was admitted to citizenship. By the act of this session five years residence, and a similar declaration made three years before admission, are required.
Militia.
A bill supplementary to an act more effectually to provide for the national defence by establishing an uniform militia, was brought into the House of Representatives on the 8th of February, by which it was prescribed; that the militia generally should meet one day in each year; that the flank companies of grenadiers, light-infantry or riflemen, to be composed of persons between the ages of 18 and 26 years, formed by voluntary enlistment, or by lot; and the artillery consisting of persons between the ages of 21 and 36 years, formed in the same manner, in all uniform and accountable to themselves, and be embodied for six days preceding the general regimental muster. The President is authorised, in case of danger, to order out the flank and artillery companies for thirty days in each year.
Several attempts were made during the session to take this bill into consideration; but they all failed from the superior interest taken in other measures.
The supplements of our public councils on this subject cannot be too severely reprehended. While every one acknowledges the commanding magnitude of it, and the necessity of making energetic provisions during a season of tranquility, few men have been found zealous enough to devote that full and persevering attention which can alone surmount the difficulties with which it is attended. The duty of immediate and effectual attention is forced. The liberties of our country may hang upon it. Let us then anticipate from the labours of the next session a discharge of this patriotic duty.
Post-Office.
An act was passed discontinuing 12 old, and establishing 63 new post-roads. By this act the Post Master General is directed to contract for carrying the mail between Petersburg, Virginia, and Louisville, Georgia, for five years, in mail coaches or stages, limiting the expense to a sum not exceeding one-third more than the present expense.
By these two features of the act facility and security are imparted to this important department, on the fidelity and competency of which essentially depend the interests of the Union. This measure, in connection with the energetic arrangements of the head of the department, adopted during the session, for accelerating the progress of the mail, may be considered evidences of a disposition to open as wide as practicable, every legitimate avenue to information, thereby enabling the people to judge for themselves, and to exercise their rights of opinion free from a dangerous and degrading dependence upon others.
One circumstance, however, is too interesting to the public welfare, not to be distinctly mentioned. For several years past a large sum, arising from the proceeds of this department, instead of being applied to its extension and perfection, has been carried into the general treasury, and applied to objects altogether foreign to its institution. In a republican government, and more especially in its infancy, this ought not to be. So far from repressing by impositions, the diffusion of information, it ought to be encouraged; and while an appropriation of other funds is not required for this purpose, it surely ought not to be deprived of its own peculiar resources, the influence of which, however small in the general fiscal operations of the government, would have been most sensibly felt in the extension
of new offices, the improvement of roads, and numerous other incidental objects that claim attention.
Admission of Stenographers on the floor of the Senate.
On the 4th of January, the Editor of the National Intelligencer requested permission to occupy a position in the lower area of the Senate chamber, to take the debates of that body. A motion being made, extending the right generally to reporters, occasioned much debate, in which the right was advocated by the republican, and opposed by the federal side of the House. The motion finally prevailed by 13 yeas to 12 nays.
This measure opens a new door to public information, and may be considered as the prelude to a more genuine sympathy between the Senate and the people than has heretofore subsisted.
In the commencement of this history, it was observed, that an unprecedented mass of information had been imparted by the executive to the legislature. This circumstance has already appeared in the progress of our details. But the mention of much information communicated has been deferred to avoid breaking the chain of important events in the succession in which they occurred.
During the session the following documents were presented:
From the Department of State. A statement of the comparative duties paid in the ports of Great Britain on goods imported into Great Britain, in American, foreign and British vessels, since the 5th of January, 1798.
This document, though very interesting, admits not, from its nature, either of analysis or generalisation.
A statement of appropriations on our commerce committed under the authority of Spain.
Laws of the North Western and Indiana territories.
Sundry documents relative to the transactions of the United States with the Barbary powers, exhibiting with great minuteness, the expenditure of public money since the year 1791, in the whole amounting to 2,049,320 dollars.
From the Treasury Department.
A statement of the Exports from Oct. 1, 1800 to Oct. 1, 1801, by which it appeared that the total exports amounted to 93,020,513 dollars, of which 46,377,792 dollars consisted of the produce of the United States, and 46,642,721 dollars of foreign productions.
This statement attested the flourishing and progressive state of agriculture and commerce, as the exports of the preceding year amounted to only 70,976,800 dollars, making an increase in one year of 22,043,713 dollars.
A statement of the situation of the marine hospitals belonging to the United States, by which it appeared that hospitals, under the entire or concurrent superintendence of the United States had been established at Boston, Newport, Norfolk, Charleston, Baltimore, New York, and Philadelphia.
That the whole sum received from seamen, either in private or in public service, amounts to 147,875 dollars and 58 cents, of which 6,185 dollars and 33 cents have been applied to the purchase of the hospital at Gosport, near Norfolk, and 74,635 dollars 51 cents have been expended for the relief of sick seamen; that 73,761 dollars 61 cents remain unexpended in the hands of said seamen and agents, and that 6,707 dollars 87 cents are due to certain agents who have expended more than has been received by them.
A detailed statement of the official emoluments and expenditures of the officers employed in collecting the internal revenues from January 1, 1800, to Jan. 1, 1801, by which it appeared that 453 officers were employed in the collection, who received 139,280 dollars.
A statement of the amount of duties for the same period upon domestic distilled spirits, viz.
Amounting in the whole, with the addition of the frictional cents, to 993,661
The Treasurer's Accounts.
Eighteen Tables, exhibiting in detail statements of the quantities of and duties on each description of imported commodities, the amount of foreign and domestic tonnage, the state of the public debt, the disposition of the sold and unsold public lands, &c. &c. from the year 1790 to 1800 inclusive.
These documents defy analysis. They, perhaps, contain more valuable information
respecting the fiscal concerns of the United States, than are to be found elsewhere in print.
An account of the receipts and expenditures for the year 1800, by which it appeared, that the receipts had been 12,413,973 dollars, and the expenditures 11,952,534 dollars.
A statement of the importations in American and foreign vessels from October 1, 1798, to the 30th September 1800.
These statements are also given at great length, and from their nature admit not of generalisation.
A report of the commissioners of the sinking fund, stating the aggregate purchases made of the debt to the amount to 4,738,367 dollars; and that there remained in the hands of the treasurer, 449,069 dollars at the disposition of the commissioners.
Estimates for the year 1802, requiring for
Total, including fractional cents, 3,448,147
It will be remarked that this statement neither includes the appropriations for the debt, nor for carrying into effect the French or British conventions.
The Receipts and Expenditures from October 1, 1800, to October 1, 1801; being receipts 12,424,313 dollars; and expenditures 12,394,936 dollars.
A statement of the District Tonnage of the United States, on the 31st December, 1800, amounting to 972,492 tons; with a comparative statement of the actual and dutiable tonnage for the years 1794, 1795, 1796, 1797, 1798, and 1799.
A detailed statement relative to the mint from its establishment.
A statement, exhibiting the amount of duties received, and drawbacks allowed, for the years 1798, 1799, and 1800, viz.
Emoluments of the officers employed in the collection of the customs.
A statement of the exports from the Mississippi District for the year 1801, amounting to 1,095,412 dollars.
A plot of the lands of the United States within the boundary line north west of the Ohio.
From the War Department.
A statement of the ordnance, arms, and military stores. A statement of the present military establishment of the United States, where the aggregate authorised establishment appeared to amount to 5,438 men, of which 1,384 were wanting to complete the establishment—accompanied by an estimate of all the posts and stations where garrisons will be expedient, and of the number of men requisite for each garrison, comprising 20 companies of artillery, and 20 companies of infantry, each company to consist of 76 men, exclusive of commissioned officers and cadets.
A statement, subsequently rendered, exhibiting the sum that would be required for the military establishment for the year 1802, viz. dollars 948,762.
With the additional sum of 158,500 to meet the expenses incident to the discharge of supernumerary officers & men.
From the Navy Department.
A statement of the vessels belonging to the Navy, with their present state of equipment, and the service in which they are respectively employed; by which it appeared that there were 5 frigates of 44 guns, 3 of 36, 5 of 32, and 1 schooner of 12 guns—of which five frigates were dismantled and laid up in ordinary at the city of Washington.
The sailing orders given to the commanders of the frigate Insurgent , and the brigantine Pickering , with the opinion of the Secretary of the Navy that, as no information had been received of the state of those vessels, they were probably lost in an equinoctial gale.
A report respecting the state of the Navy fund, by which it appeared, that since the 29th of November 1800, the sum of 54,878 51-100 dollars, accruing to the United States from the sales of prizes, had been applied to the purchase of flocks of the funded debt of the United States, which, together with all those flocks previously purchased, are placed on the books of the treasury to the credit of the commissioners. These flocks produce an annuity of 5,688 44-100 dollars. The gross amount of interest and dividends accruing from the time when they were purchased to the end of the present year, is 5,237 69-100 dollars.
That the pensions of the persons placed on the invalid list of the naval establishment amount to an annual sum of 1,604 80-100 dollars, and that the aggregate of all those which either have been paid, or are payable to the end of the year 1801, amounts to the sum of 1730 28-100 dollars, which deducted from the gross amount of interest and dividends as above, will leave a balance unapplied of 5,507 41-100 dollars.
With these measures terminated the first session of the 57th Congress. The change, recently effected in the organs of the public will, had excited an unusual interest among the people. From the new rulers, much was expected on the one side, and much apprehended on the other. In the opinion of some the millennium had arrived, while the imaginations of others were awfully alarmed with the forebodings of scenes of anarchy and injustice. Both these descriptions of men have been disappointed. The golden age has not returned, neither is the land deluged with blood. The ordinary concerns of life proceed in their usual channels; and it is found that there is a liability in the national sentiment that remains unmoved by the inflammatory passions of a few disordered minds. In other countries and different periods of society, governments have moulded nations at pleasure, but here public men and public measures may change, while the nation remains the same. In this inflexibility of national will, the intelligent mind will discern the impregnable basis of liberty, and derive from it the firmest convictions of its duration.
The leading motive, to which the interesting measures of the session are to be traced, merits distinct, however rapid, notice.
The conviction that the general government, being federal in its character, should in the application of its powers, be confined to federal objects, dictated a system of rigid economy in the public expenditure, and of limited taxation. It was wisely conceived that the general welfare depended equally upon the vigor of state and federal sovereignty; and it was known that this end could only be insured, by leaving to the states certain sources of revenue untouched. Hence the repeal of the internal taxes, and the lopping off all useless ramifications of office.
The same motive, mingled with others, recommended the reformation of the old judiciary system, which had been formed, under federal auspices, before the rage of party, and without reference to political effects; and the general satisfaction it had given was a pledge of its being acceptable.
The same motive imparted much strength to the conviction of the necessity of redeeming, at the earliest day, without oppressing the people, the whole of the national debt. Accordingly, about two-thirds of the annual revenue was appropriated to its discharge.
These are the three great measures which will illustrious this epoch of American affairs. Others of secondary character will be remembered for the temporary good produced; but the former will not for ages be forgotten. The benefits they confer will pervade all ranks, and the principles they establish will be the guides of a republican government wherever it exists.
and by virtue of that office one of the judges of the general court. In less than two years after, the discontent which preceded the revolution began; from that moment, contrary to the expectations of those to whom he owed his unfluctuating advancement, he took the side of his country, and boldly entered his dissent from several measures, adopted by Lord Dunmore, and functioned by the advice of the rest of the board. From that moment Virginia beheld in him a zealous patriot, ready to sacrifice life and fortune in her service. He has accordingly devoted both his life and fortune in behalf of his country. His fortune was in part swept away by the depredations of the enemy; & the magnificent prospect of an immense hereditary estate, vanished at the first session of the general assembly after the declaration of independence, by the passage of the act for abolishing entails in this country. That salutary law, which it deprived him of an immense estate, did not deprive him of an atom of his patriotism, and attachment to the glorious cause he had engaged in. Too often would have acted a different part; but it was upon conviction of what is right, and not from selfish motives that Mr. Page's conduct, was then regulated, as it has been, uniformly, since that period.
Such are the outlines of Mr. Page's character and conduct. The lapse of time has erased from my memory, and perhaps from that of many others, circumstances necessary to form such a detail of his services as they merit. Suffice it to say, that he was chosen a member of the first committee of safety, appointed in Virginia, before the establishment of the commonwealth, the number of suffrages in his favor being superior to those of any other member, except the venerable Pendleton, who was chosen President; and when that distinguished patriot filled the chair of the convention, Mr. Page, (if I mistake not) succeeded to the office of President. Those who recollect the depredations of Lord Dunmore, and the practical effect under his orders, will remember with pleasure the affair at Gwynn's Island, by which he was driven away from Virginia; the attack made on him at that place, was in consequence of Mr. Page's advice; at that time though too bold for the success it was attended with. When the constitution was formed, Mr. Page had the honor of being his conduct approved by the unanimous suffrage of that patriotic convention which established it; being chosen first counselor under the commonwealth; and by the council chosen their President, and lieutenant governor of the commonwealth. In this station he continued for several years, and his conduct was marked with a zeal, integrity and ability that continued him therein until he thought the principles of rotation in office required that he should no longer hold it. When the present chief magistrate of the United States was chosen governor of Virginia, Mr. Page's pretensions to that office were such, that it is believed Mr. Jefferson would not have suffered himself to have been nominated, as the opponent of Mr. Page; but each knew how to estimate properly the value of the other. Mr. Page unanimously advocated the election of Mr. Jefferson, and thus, once more evinced, that the real patriot has nothing selfish in his conduct. From the period of his retirement from the council to the end of the war, he was either in the field as commanding officer of the militia of his county, a service, in the part of the country where he resided, extremely frequent, necessary, hazardous, and fatiguing; or in the assembly. Since the adoption of the constitution of the United States he was twice, or three times chosen a Representative in Congress. His votes there have always manifested a steady adherence to the principles of Republicanism. When Mr. Wood was elected governor of the state, Mr. Page was thought by many to be a more fit candidate for the office; but being then a member of Congress he declined the nomination, as incompatible with the duty he then held; for by accepting the government at that time, his constituents would have been unrepresented in Congress; for the whole session; again, then he decided in favor of duty, against his personal interest. The peculiar circumstances attending governor Monroe's return from his mission to France, made every republican in Virginia determine to give him the most unequivocal and most honorable testimony of approbation and support. The poll of governor was bestowed upon him as a diluquent and indelible mark.
This gentleman is entitled to a place among the most early, and most zealous friends and promoters of the American revolution. Born to the prospect of an immense estate, at that time entailed upon him as the eldest son and heir of an opulent father, it was not to be wondered at that he was selected as one of the future props of the influence of the British government, in this country; he was accordingly at an early period of life appointed a counselor under the crown,

TO THE PEOPLE OF VIRGINIA.
As the period for which Mr. Monroe was elected to the office of chief magistrate of this commonwealth, will expire in November next, it is time that your attention should be turned to the election of a fit person to fill that office, as his successor. The dignity and importance of the office demand that the character of the person who fills it should be well known; should have been thoroughly tried; should have been found pure, uniform, and unshaken, in the principles of that government which he may be called upon to administer; should unite experience with abilities; discernment with zeal; and above all, private probity with political integrity; such a man, and such a character presents itself to your choice in the person of John Page, of Rosewell.
This gentleman is entitled to a place among the most early, and most zealous friends and promoters of the American revolution. Born to the prospect of an immense estate, at that time entailed upon him as the eldest son and heir of an opulent father, it was not to be wondered at that he was selected as one of the future props of the influence of the British government, in this country; he was accordingly at an early period of life appointed a counselor under the crown,
Mr. Page was at one time near fifty of his negroes, and all his crops by the enemy.

of honor, in opposition to the malignant aspersions of faction. Mr. Page's pretensions were remembered, and were then opposed to those great and influential considerations. They have had their effect: Mr. Munroe is about to retire from his station; it remains to fill it with one worthy of the confidence of his fellow-citizens. That man is John Page of Rosewell .
Republics have been reproached with ingratitude. Virginian I trust will ever be exempt from that reproach. If there be a man in the state whose services have been more early, more constant, more steady, more zealous, more faithful, or more beneficial to his country than Mr. Page's; such is the character of John Page of Rosewell, that he will withdraw his own name from the nomination as governor, and with him success. But unless such a character can be brought forward, the suffrage of every friend of his country must be in favor of the man who has done, and suffered most, and served her the longest.
Upon these grounds I think it easy to demonstrate that Mr. Page ought to be preferred to any other competitor.
14. His services have been probably longer than those of any other Gentleman who may be opposed to him.
2d. They were performed at a crisis that tried men's souls.
3d. They were attended with great loss to himself and his family.
4th. He is now advanced in life; should the due reward to his merit be postponed till another election (that is to say for three years at least) there is not only a chance that it may then be too late; but a certainty that his services will be less remembered, than even at this very day.

REMARKS occasioned by Mr. Adams's LETTERS.
No. III.
Mr. Adams proceeds:— "When the people, who have no property, feel the power in their own hands, to determine all questions by a majority, they ever attack those who have property."
It is the common mistake of Mr. Adams and all writers of monarchic predilection, totally to disregard the peculiar state of society in this country, applying to us all the absurdities that have been connected with the fraudulent and tyrannical political systems of Europe. Nothing is more true than that in this country the people are sovereign, that they hold all power as well from natural as from economical principles. By them, therefore, or a majority of them, all questions are determined. Yet it is equally true that they have never attacked those who have property. Nor is it believed that a sentiment of hostility to those who have property has at any time been felt by any considerable portion of the people. The reason for this diversity between Europe and America is obvious. In Europe, whatever exists in the political world is the offspring of prejudice, of passion, of superstition, of fraud, or of force. There in the correct sense of the word, politically speaking, there have been no people. There have been large masses of human beings; but they have possessed no tranquil and effectual organ whereby to communicate their feelings, their wants, or their wills. They live, therefore, had no other instrument of action than physical force. The history of the world shews us that the poor will ever be oppressed by the rich. That same history informs us that the poor are patient; that they will bear much, without resistance. But there is a degree of oppression beyond which the capacity of endurance is exhausted. Hence when this degree has been passed, the people have humbled their oppressors in the dust; and power, talent, and riches, have fallen prostrate before the fury of the multitude. This is a great evil; but in such a corrupt state of society a necessary one. Kings, nobles, and priests are blotted from existence; but it cannot be thence inferred that the mass of human felicity is decreased. It may be a mournful spectacle to behold the idolator of an empire deprived of his wealth and his life; but it is no less joyful to contemplate millions saved from famine.
In this country we have not beheld, nor can we behold, so long as our republican institutions remain, a fight to degrading. All men here start with equal political rights, the possession of property is alike open to all, the field of industry is boundless, the objects of talent are innumerable. All men, therefore, be they rich or poor, are equally interested in the preservation of this great system. It is the defence of the rich; it is the pledge of riches to the poor. All are either rich or expect to be. The talent of the cottager, equally with that of the heir to thousands, enter the field with equal claims. Property may be amassed by the industry and successful enterprise of one man; but, the entail of estates being broken, it is dissipated nearly as soon as possessed. We have no privileged orders. This very circumstance has given them their death blow. Hence, we have
no dangerous competitions of one mass of the society with another. There are individual rivalries of talent, and industry, but these can never agitate the nation. There are no permanent interests of one class placed in hostile array against the interests of other classes.
Every remark, therefore, applied to Europe, falls in its application here. The poison has found not only its antidote, but its preventative, and here "all nature's difference is all nature's peace." It is presumed that this is a conclusive answer to Mr. Adams's remark. Such a remark might have excited our surprise, if made in Constantinople or even London; but is truly surprising, when made by an American citizen, who, nurtured by the intrepid sentiments of a revolution, and animated by an early devotion to liberty, had been among the distinguished assertors of invaded rights.
"The multitude," continues Mr. Adams, "as well as the nobles must have a check. This is one principle."
This is too plain to need a commentary. The nobles and people, in the previous part of the letter, are represented to be at war with each other. "They must have a check." That is, in plain language, a king; for if you exclude both nobles and people, what have you left but a king?
Here follows, in Mr. Adams's letter, his wild, extravagant, and ludicrous picture of family pride and popularity. The delineation could only have been derived from the operations of an internal sense, that convinced the writer that his heart swelled with family pride (though God knows wherefore!) and deluded him with the flattering hope of popularity that should be immortal. But alas! how visionary our brightest hopes! They exulting dance in the sunbeams of our own solitary applause; but the cruel world soon dissolves the fair scene, and the sceptre and the palace are exchanged for the unostentatious retirement of private life. Here the proud heart first learns the salutary lesson, of the insignificance, under a republican system, of any one man compared to the whole society.
This vivid picture of the fancy is thus closed:
"The only way, God knows, is to put these families [of great family popularity] in a hole by themselves, and let two watches upon them—a superior to them all on one side, and the people on the other."
Can words be more unequivocal? Will any one say that this is not a plain palpable recommendation of monarchy?
Again—"Let us do justice to the people, and to the nobles, for nobles there are, as I have before proved, in Boston, as well as Madrid; but to do justice to both, you must establish an arbitrator between them. This is another principle."
Here we have repeated the same plain, palpable, recommendation of monarchy. Can words be stronger or less liable to various construction? The affection is absolute and downright; and let it be remarked that it is applied expressly to this country, as well as other countries—"Nobles there are in Boston, as well as Madrid."—"You must establish an arbitrator between them," [the nobles and people.]
The writer, having reached the daring purpose of his remarks, pauses. Dreading the effect of further explanation, he adds; "It is time you and I should have some sweet communion together."—There you shall hear what I dare not write! Truth is dangerous! It was not meant for the multitude! The pen may betray the confidence reposed in it. When we meet, I will impart to you, in sweet communion, those darling wishes, those cherished solitary thoughts, "whose aim is empire, and whose theatre's the world."
More, hereafter respecting the reception these letters experienced. It is sufficient now to say that the venerable republican, to whom they were addressed, felt no other sentiment but that of pity for fallen greatness.
The principal object of these remarks is to shew that there are men in this country, great men, the leaders of party, men whose measures have been espoused with the liveliest zeal, and which have carried the nation to the brink of ruin, who are avowedly and unequivocally attached to monarchy, and who wish to introduce it here.
This has been proved from the words of Mr. Adams. We shall proceed to prove the same thing, without comment, from the words of Alexander Hamilton . Let it be recollected that one of these men has been, and that the other still is the idol of the federal party, and let any honest man dare to say that the federal party, however unintentionally, have not hazarded the republic by their confidence in these men.
Propositions of col. Hamilton, of New York, in the Convention for establishing a Constitutional Government for the United States.
1. The supreme legislative power of the United States of America, to be vested in two different bodies of men, the one to be called the assembly, the other the senate, who together shall form the legislature of the United States, with power to pass all laws whatever, subject to the negative hereafter mentioned.
2. The assembly to consist of persons elected by the people, to serve for three years.
3.

10. All laws of the particular states, contrary to the constitution or laws of the United States, to be utterly void; and the better to prevent such laws being passed, the governor or President of each state shall be appointed by the general government, and shall have a negative upon the laws about to be passed in the state of which he is governor or president.
11. No state to have any force, land or naval, and the militia of all the states to be under the sole and exclusive direction of the United States, the officers of which to be appointed and commissioned by them.
Latest Foreign Intelligence.
From London papers to the 22d of June inclusive, received at the office of the Mercantile Advertiser by the ship Ann, captain Cott, in 42 days from Hull.
LONDON, June 19. The arrival in London of general Androssy, the new French Plenipotentiary, is considerably expected in the course of the present month. M. Otto, who is preparing for his departure, will not, however, set out for Paris for some days after the General's arrival, as he is enabled to communicate much valuable information to his successor, not only with respect to the general state of diplomatic affairs in this country, but also with respect to the characters of the British and foreign ministers with whom it will be necessary for him to maintain an intercourse.
M. Otto is to remain at Paris a month before he takes his departure for America. This gentleman has never yet seen the First Consul, in whose esteem he holds a very distinguished rank. Much of the time during which he is to remain at Paris will, it is supposed, be passed between them in conferences on the relations between France and the United States, and on the best means of facilitating supplies for the West India possessions of the Republic.
A few days ago, a Dutch line of battle ship anchored at Deal, with French troops on board, (the 7th demi-brigade of the line), from the Texel, bound to St. Domingo. The French officers were received by the officers of the first battalion of the 52d Regiment, stationed there, with every mark of attention and hospitality. On Wednesday they
dined at the Regimental mess, when the following, among many other toasts, were given:—"The First Consul of France," by the commanding officer. Immediately after which, the French Commandant gave, "The King of Great Britain;" when the fine band of the 52d, struck up the beloved air of "God save the King;" and the whole company, as if by a sudden impulse, stood up. After this was given, "To the memory of those brave men, of all nations, who fell in the late contest." The French commandant then gave, "To the reunion of the two Great Nations;" which was drunk with three cheers. The greatest mirth and harmony prevailed during the evening.
Downing-Street, June 18.
The King has been pleased to appoint the right hon. Lord Whitworth, K. B. to be his Majesty's ambassador extraordinary and plenipotentiary to the French Republic.
The King has also been pleased to appoint James Talbot, Esq. to be his Majesty's Secretary to that Embassy.
June 21.
The Paris Journals of the 19th inst. have arrived. The French government displays the greatest activity in providing for the wants of the public with respect to the article of grain, and considerable importations are announced by the minister of the interior, at the ports of Dunkirk, Havre, Rouen, Dieppe, and Saint Valery, from Germany, Holland, and this country. Of forty-five vessels arrived at these ports laden with flour and corn, it appears that no less than 24 are British vessels direct from England.
While the Republic is thus supplied from England with the first necessaries of life, several French Journals do not scruple to announce the design of improving their manufactures by the assistance of our artisans. An article from Brussels, noticing the progress made in the cloth and kerseymere manufactures of Luxembourg, observes, that it is the intention of the proprietors to procure English workmen, in order to raise their manufactures to the greatest degree of improvement.
The columns of the Moniteur continue to be filled with the votes and addresses on the question of electing Bonaparte First Consul for Life. Eighty thousand suffrages in the affirmative were given in the department of La Gironde alone, of which Bordeaux is the capital.
It is confidently stated in the Paris Journals, that the king of Prussia will send no minister to the Batavian Republic till the House of Orange shall have received their indemnities in Germany.
The French funds have again fallen. The 5 per cents. were no higher on the 17th than 55.
June 22.
The disturbances at Warsaw, in consequence of the appearance of Prince Suhow, are said to have produced a great sensation throughout Germany. Suhow, as soon as his arrival was known, was challenged by an old Polish general of the name of Gielgalt, who wished to revenge the melancholy fate of his country. Suhow having been the adviser of the partition of Poland, when in power in the Russian Court. Suhow declined accepting the challenge on such a ground—upon which Gielgalt challenged him for personal injuries he had sustained when at St. Petersburg. In the mean time this correspondence became public, and a party of young Poles in the house of Suhow, which was only saved by the interference of the Prussian troops. Suhow withdrew from the city, but previously engaged to fight at Vienna on the 10th of June, where he is pledged to fight another duel also. He has arrived at Vienna, followed by Gielgalt.
By the latest advices from Egypt, we learn that the British troops at Alexandria had encamped before that city, where the plague was making great ravages. This terrible scourge had likewise manifested itself at Smyrna, and great fears were prevailing lest it should even reach Constantinople.
As the King of Sardinia arrived at Rome on the 22d of last month for the purpose of residing in that city until the final settlement of the indemnities which he is to receive, it is not improbable that the recent accounts from Petersburg, announcing the determination of the First Consul to grant certain indemnities to the unfortunate Prince, contain some authentic information. They state with confidence, that "Bonaparte has been so far prevailed upon by the powers interceding in favor of his Sardinian majesty, that he has resolved in his last plan of indemnities lately sent from Paris to the Northern Courts, that the king of Sardinia shall recover the upper part of Piedmont, and a sum of money to be paid by installments by the French Government, to compensate its losses."
Accounts from Constantinople, of the 18th ult. state, that apprehensions are entertained by the Porte, with respect to a project said to be formed between the Courts of Vienna, Petersburg, and Berlin, to appropriate to themselves some of the Turkish provinces in Europe. Conferences on this subject had actually taken place between the Reis Effendi, the Russian Ministers and British Charge
d'affaires, and two Councillors were despatched on the 17th ult. one to Petersburg, the other to Vienna. When these advisers left Constantinople, a corps of near 20,000 men had been collected in the environs of the capital, designed to act against the rebels and banditti, who spread terror and desolation over most part of the European provinces.
It is said that the House of Commons will adjourn on Thursday next, to give time for the several Bills now under consideration to pass the Lords.

Letters from Vienna state, that an Agent from a great foreign Court, has arrived at Widdin, to act as Mediator between Pashwan Ogliou and the Porte.
A corps of Batavian troops, it is said, assembled on the Dutch frontier on the side of Germany, for the purpose of taking possession of the indemnities which are to be awarded to the Batavian Republic as a compensation for Maastricht, Venloo, and the adjacent Dutch Flanders, which were ceded to the French Republic by the Treaty of the Hague in 1795.
It is confidently reported, that six packets will be stationed to do duty from Yarmouth to Mastricht in Sweden, and that there will be no communication to Cuxhaven in consequence of this regulation, the Northern Powers will be able to answer their letters eight days earlier than usual.
We learn that a very serious investigation will take place into the causes of the late disturbances at Dominica, particularly into that part of it which respects the arrears due to the Black troops.
A prodigious number of Wolves have lately ravaged the Cantons of the department of Landun in France. In one Commune alone, that of Sables, these animals, in the course of four months, have broken into forty-seven parks, or close sheep folds, and devoured upwards of 500 sheep, and lambs. They have also devoured in the fields, 12 young foals of a month and a month and a half old. They commit their depredations frequently in troops of four or five each.
The motions of General Daendels, now again at the Hague, are narrowly watched by those whom he displeased with an hostile attack in the revolution of 1798—Many believe that he has something of importance in agitation.
Within the space of two months forty-seven suicides have been committed at Vienna, and it is said to be in contemplation to order that the dead bodies of those who shall kill themselves, shall be hung on a gallows by the public executioner, in order to deter others from the commission of this desperate act.
The gentlemen deputed from the committee of Worsted Manufacturers to represent to government the hardships and embarrassments that would arise to the trade, if the intended abolition of the drawback on soap took place, have received an assurance from Mr. Vansittart, of the treasury, that government will continue the drawback, if the manufacturers can point out any means to prevent the frauds on the revenue which are practised.
CORN EXCHANGE, June 22.
This day there was a considerable supply of grain. Wheat experienced a small depreciation. Barley and Malt were also somewhat lower. Peas and beans, on the average, had a trifling rise. Wheat 50s. to 68s. per 8 bushels. Flour 50 to 55s. per sack.
The French expedition from Leghorn excites some curiosity, especially as it was despatched in such haste, that several Danish vessels, which were in the harbor, were put in requisition for the purpose, much against the will of the commander of a small Danish Squadron, then at anchor in the roads.
The expedition sent from Genoa against the famous robber, known by the name of the BRUIT, has completely failed; and that depredator, with his banditti, continues his depredations in the environs of that city to such an extent as almost to prevent any intercourse with it by land. According to letters from Genoa, of the 22d ult. he has moved his head-quarters from Capenardo to the Appenine mountains. He lately made proposals to the Genoese government, as an independent power, demanding for each of his companions 3000 Louis, and for himself 6000, in consideration of which sums, and a complete amnesty, they would henceforth lead an honest life.
The last Leipzig fair was attended by upwards of 36,000 foreigners, including 14,000 Jews.
A private letter from Paris states that at the closing of the lists, not more than 18,000 names were inserted, and amongst them three citizens had the courage to write a legible non—One very cautious hero wrote between two columns, as fol-

was "In good truth—I do not know anything about it—yes and no."
The report of the conspiracy against Bonaparte, of the death of Berthier, and of the disaffection and enmity that prevailed among the French Generals, are officially contradicted.
It appears it is not only the Dutch that are discontented at the opening of the Scheldt; but the merchants of Nantes, Rouen, Havre and Dunkirk, have petitioned the French executive not to allow a direct trade between Antwerp and the East and West-India colonies, asserting that if it is uninterrupted, all the old French ports from the Loire to the Low Countries must be ruined.
Lord Hutchinson has been for the last fortnight at Paris; but has not yet been introduced at the court of Tuilleries.
It is reported at Paris, that the French government has complained to our government of the French princes in England wearing the insignia of the House of Bourbon. The reply given was, that the Pretender wore and even distributed orders at Rome, and the government of Great Britain was not in the least offended.
Private letters from Paris, say, "The British government having strictly prohibited the importation of any kind of produce from this country, the government here were not pleased with it; and it is in consequence thereof, that a commissaire generale is appointed for England, to modify certain navigation laws and other commercial regulations, and that I believe will be all; or there certainly will be no treaty of commerce."
Messieurs Goyon and Monthret, deputed by the French consul to negotiate a commercial treaty with this country, had his first interview with Lord Hawkesbury on Saturday, the result of which, we understand, proved highly satisfactory.
This day arrived a mail from Holland, by which the following letter has been received, dated Rotterdam, June 11.—"We learn, from good authority, that the French have prohibited the importation and exportation of tobacco to and from Antwerp, under a penalty of seizure!—This measure tends, and is no doubt calculated, to favor the other French ports, especially Dunkirk; but offers no encouragement to foreigners."
The earthquake which was lately felt in several parts of Italy, swallowed up one whole village, that of Menguin, 12 leagues from Lodi; so that not one inhabitant, nor any vehicle of it remains.
The Dutch have also renewed the law prohibiting the importation of foreign tea, and have rescinded all the prohibitions on English goods.
The Batavian republic have permitted the importation of English goods into their ports, on their paying the same duties as before the war.
The Gazette contains an order of council, for continuing the permission for the importation of provisions duty free, into Great Britain, till the first of June, 1802.
It is mentioned on good authority, that the French have prohibited the importation and exportation of tobacco, to and from Antwerp, under a penalty of seizure.
A London paper of the 17th says, "the official letters from Gen. Leclerc at St. Domingo, contain some expressions relative to the Americans, much harsher than we could expect to see published in France. When the complaints of the Americans for the seizure of their cargoes are mentioned, it is added, that they should not 'speak of the past,' and is then directly stated, that 'the agents of the American government were about Toussaint, and did not suggest to him good intentions.'"
POLITICAL.
A rumour prevailed, that Mr. Pitt and Mr. Dundas would soon be transferred to the upper house. The matrimonial plan of the former, we assigned as the reason of his approaching dignity.
The Batavian Legislature have already resolved upon a deviation from the new constitution, as far as it respects the gradual change of representatives.
A register was to be opened at Hamburg for the reception of votes for Bonaparte as Consul for life.
The Batavian Legislative Body have rejected a proposition of the council of state, allowing a general amnesty to those who had quitted the territories of the republic in consequence of the revolution of 1795.

A letter from Constantinople of May 10, states that the plague raged with great violence; that the English troops had been obliged to withdraw from Alexandria and Roietta. The plague has likewise made its appearance at Constantinople and at Smyrna. Mr. Stratton, the English Ambassador, has invited the Porte to accede to the treaty of Amiens, and this accession is expected soon to take place.
New disturbances have broken out in Romelia.
At the city of Lorca, in Spain, a reservoir, several leagues in length, suddenly burst, and inundated a space of 20 leagues, as also a part of the city; 500 houses were destroyed, and 1000 lives lost.
London, June 12.
M. Montbret, the Commercial Commissioner on the part of France to our government, arrived in London on Wednesday last. It is said that the Commercial intercourse between the two countries will be on a more extensive scale than was at first expected by either party.
PARIS, June 14.
The utmost tranquility prevails in this city notwithstanding the great scarcity and extreme dearness of provisions. Meat is at present dearer than it has been for many years, and costs 14 sous per lb. Bread continues at 18 sous for 4 lbs. and will not, in consequence of the precaution and activity of government, be allowed to exceed that sum. In the country parts it is much dearer, and there are districts where it cannot be got at scarcely any rate.
Admiral Villaret Joyeuse is to sail in the course of a few days, for Martinique, with the rank of captain general of that Island and St. Lucie.
The late Turkish ambassador continues here as Charge d'Affairs, and the new one, who has the rank of minister extraordinary, is to remain but a short time. The utmost attention is paid to him by Bonaparte and the ministers, which has induced many to think that the French government wishes to obtain some favor of the Porte.
It is confidently reported, that the king of Etruria is absolutely deranged in his mind. The loss of his faculties is supposed to be occasioned by an epilepsy, by which he has of late been severely afflicted. He has, since he arrived in Italy, been almost uniformly governed by the advice of his confessor; who, in conjunction with the archbishop of Parma-Sorpi, and the new cardinal of Siena, and M. Selvatico, prevailed on him to issue the edict respecting the priests, in opposition to the French minister, general Clarke. The latter threatened the cardinal with banishment.
Last Monday three weeks, general Murat was invited to dine with the king at Poggia, and took the opportunity of expressing his sentiments freely on the subject. The dinner lasted but a short time, and the conversation made a deep impression on his majesty's mind. He passed a very uneasy night, and at eight o'clock in the morning, dressed only in his robe-de-chambre, he ran about the palace with a drawn sabre in his hand, calling out that he was betrayed. He ordered M. Selvatico, and his secretaries and apothecary to be arrested. At length the courtiers seized the king, whose passion threatened the most deliberate consequences, and was at length prevailed upon to lose some blood, which calmed his mind.
Some disturbances have lately taken place in Piedmont. The cause is not known and our journals dare not notice them. [Private letter.]
ROTTERDAM, June 18.
Notwithstanding the vast importations from the Baltic, grain continues dear in this country, owing to the supplies continually shipping for France; and to the additional demand for Geneva in Flanders, where the distillers were prohibited from working, to avoid the needless consumption of grain. Trade begins visibly to revive in this city; and several articles, which have been long in a state of stagnation, particularly coffee, sugar, and tobacco, are now in great demand.
RATISON, June 1.
Letters from Italy, received this moment, announce an extraordinary piece of news, which we would, however, consider as hazardous. It is to believe it, it is no less than the occupation of the Morea by the French army, which has evacuated Calabria, to serve, adds the same account, with the consent of the Porte, as a compensation for the aggrandizement of territory which Wallachia and Bulgaria will give to Austria and Russia, who, with the consent of the Porte also, are preparing to take possession of them.—Publiciste.
HAGUE, May 27.
Our Republic begins to assume a new complexion; there is more in it at present which resembles the old rather than the new order of things. The departmental governments smell a little of the provincial governments; each one seems to be more matter on his own ground than for some months past; decent equality is again introduced; the citizens are returning to their appropriate classes; Magistrates, accustomed to rule, and who learnt to do so from experience—even old magistrates, are raised to their former state of elevation; ecclesiastics, with all their quarters are again exhibited to view; liveries once more adorn the backs of menials; seats of distinction for great men are again erected in the churches and playhouses; the ecclesiastics are on the point of re-assuming the gown and
hood; the people are confined to their religion and their daily labour; the re-fractary, in all practical cases, are sent out of the country; all animosities of party are exteriorly abolished; the band of fraternity is extended to our ancient ally Great Britain; amity and peace are established with the House of Orange; orange is the fashionable colour, orange handkerchiefs, orange ribbons, orange gloves, are the ornaments, as in times of old—and many other recent changes strike the impartial spectator with astonishment, and leave him ample field for conjecture.
WASHINGTON CITY.
MONDAY, August 16, 1802.
We are authorized to state, that the intelligence laid to be received by col. Barrus from an officer on board the Chesapeake is not strictly correct, and was inferred in the Alexandria Paper without his authority.
We further understand that the whole arose from a rumour at Gibraltar that the British had an action with a Tunisian, who was in charge of a Neapolitan. The rumour only stated that many officers were killed and wounded, and no length of time was mentioned during which the engagement lasted.
The deaths in Philadelphia were, on the 8th and 9th inst. 14—on the 10th, 13—on the 11th, 9—on the 12th, 4—on the 13th 6—And on the 11th inst. ten persons were in the Hospital.
The Society of the Cincinnati, of Delaware, have formally dissolved their body, and divided their funds. Upwards of 600 dollars still remain due to several individuals, to call and receive which, they are requested by advertisement in the Wilmington Mirror.
Captain Bailey of the sloop Lively, arrived from New Providence, at New London, informs, that on the 14th of July, there was brought into New Providence, a pilot boat schooner, mounting a number of twivels, manned with 36 men, commissioned by general Bowles, who commands the Indians to the southward. The following information the governor of New Providence received from a Dutch boy, who had been taken out of a Spanish vessel and kept on board the privateer for some time, afterwards made his escape and got down to New Providence. That the privateer had taken three Spanish vessels, plundered them, gave the people the boat and burnt the vessel. That while he was on board the privateer, they hailed a vessel under American colors and brought her to, sent their boat on board, and after some time returned with a large sum of money in the boat; they burnt the vessel, and the lad supposed they made the crew walk overboard, as there was none of them brought on board the privateer. The lad further says, that general Bowles had commissioned 3 other vessels, with orders to burn, sink and destroy all Spanish vessels they could meet with. After receiving the above information from the boy, the governor of New Providence armed a brig and sent out a sloop of war in search of the pirate; in a few days they brought her in, and have led them all in irons on board a sloop of war. The captain's commission was signed by general Bowles. There were a number of New Providence men on board the pirate when taken.
FUTHER NOTICE.
We have the pleasure of informing the public, that we have now in our possession, and shall soon publish in a handsome Pamphlet, the letters of Mr. JOHN to Mr. SAMUEL ADAMS, and the Answers of this last gentleman, precisely as they were written, with the names of our four noble families at full length; that the public may know the stuff, of which our future American aristocracy is to be composed. We flatter ourselves, as all parties appear to be agreed in the propriety of making the appeal to the public sense, that no unpleasant sensations will be produced by this publication; and we anticipate, in the review it must necessarily occasion of our first principles, that the cause of rational liberty will lose nothing by the investigation that will probably follow it. At any rate, no public question can be considered as of more real importance, than that which this epistolatory correspondence will necessarily bring into view. As it reaches the very foundation of the present order of things in this happy country, and as it discloses the private sentiments of two of the most distinguished friends of the late revolution, who have unhappily differed in their ideas, as to our existing political establishments, and the true principles on which they ought to be supported. [Bost. Chron.]
Extracts of two Letters from an Officer on board the U. States frigate Chesapeake, Commodore Morris, handed for publication in the American.
"GIBRALTAR, May 28.—We arrived on the 25 with our mainmast sprung;
we found here a British fleet, and the Essex frigate, from both which we received every assistance. On taking out our mainmast we found it rotten from the worms to the partners, on the gun deck. The Enterprise and Constellation both arrived in distress. Capt. Serrett was in good health, and has gone to Tripoli.—The Algerine frigate Crescent, has taken a Portuguese frigate after an action of three and a half hours. Every Portuguese officer was killed except one midshipman—and the Captain, who, being wounded, blew out his brains. Several Portuguese frigates, and two ships of the line are lying here. The British officers have generally visited us, especially Lord Keith.—The Mediterranean swarms with Algerine cruisers.
"The Tripolitan ship still lays here, but the brig has sailed under English colors. "A squadron of British ships have failed for Algiers, report says, to demand the Portuguese frigate, for being taken in sight of the rock."
"June 19.—We have got in our mainmast, and nearly ready for sea. Since the Essex failed we have received information from Morocco that the Emperor's intentions are hostile; and we learn that he has at Salé two 44 gun ships, nearly ready for sea—it is supposed, for the purpose of cruising against the Americans. This information was kept from us through policy, to prevent us sending for a reinforcement by the Essex. We shall get under way to-morrow morning, to go over to Tangiers to learn the truth of these reports, and I expect, shall return here and wait the arrival of the Adams."
"The Tripolitans are all in port, and Tripoli is well blockaded by our cruisers. Americans pass and repass with the greatest safety, without convoy. Capt. Morris is highly beloved by the officers and crew; we are healthy, and in fact, are very happy on board this ship."
"A few days since, a party of us took a pleasant excursion, in plain clothes, one of the officers habitated as a servant—we passed over into Spain, and visited the town of St. Rouge, five miles from Gibraltar. This place is situated on a hill, and commands the greatest prospect in the world. We could plainly see Ceuta, on the Barbary shore; the town of Algezirs—the Rock and Bay of Gibraltar; and the Mediterranean sea, as far as the eye could extend. At this town the nobility of Spain came to view the siege of the Rock. The houses are all stucco; the inhabitants very poor, and every thing cheap."
Alexandria, August 11.
It is with real satisfaction we learn that the gentlemen appointed to procure subscription for a turnpike road from this place to Little River, have met with such encouragement as to warrant their calling a meeting of the subscribers for the purpose of choosing directors; and we are informed they intend having a meeting in September next—After which they contemplate proceeding with the work with all possible expedition, and it is calculated that at least ten miles of the road will be finished by Christmas.
Baltimore, August 7, 1802.
A lengthy letter from an officer of the U. States frigate Chesapeake, dated June 19, handed the editor of the American last evening, concludes with the following:
"We were this day informed that Capt. M'Neil had fallen in with five sail of Tunisian cruisers, and prevented their boarding a Neapolitan frigate, which occasioned an action between capt. M'N. and the former, in which there was considerable carnage on both sides. This news comes pretty freight and is generally believed here, at Gibraltar."
New-York, August 9.
The London Papers received at the office of the MERCANTILE ADVERTISER by the ship Ann from Hull, are seventeen days later than those by the Packet. They are to the 22d June, inclusive.
At the time of the Ann's departure, which was on the 26th June, Flour, and Provisions generally, were advancing in price. In France a considerable scarcity prevailed, and the Government were applying such measures as were most likely to remedy the evil.
We find in our latest London paper the following extract of a letter from Mr. THOMAS JEFFERSON, President of the United States, to THOMAS PAINE, about which so much has been said:
"You express a wish in your letter to return to America by a national ship; Mr. Dawson, who brings over the treaty, and who will present you this letter, is charged with orders to the Captain of the Maryland to receive and accommodate you back, if you can be ready to depart at such a short warning. You will, in general, find us returned to sentiments worthy of former times; in these it will be your glory to have headily laboured, and with as much effect as any man living. That you may live long to continue your useful labours, and reap the reward in the thankfulness of nations, is my sincere prayer. Accept the assurances of my high esteem and affectionate attachment. THOMAS JEFFERSON."
BOSTON, August 6, 1802.
Capt. May, who arrived in Quarantine Road on Wednesday evening from Gibraltar, brings the following information: that captain M'Neil of the frigate Boston, cruising in the Mediterranean, observing seven Tunisian corsairs in pursuit of a Neapolitan vessel, interfered to prevent her capture. An action ensued, which terminated in the sinking of two of the vessels of the Barbarians, disabling three, and putting the other two to flight. The frigate afterwards put into Sicily, having a number of her crew killed and wounded.
Capt. May further informs, that he was told by Com. Morris, at Gibraltar, June 20, that about a fortnight before, as he expected a rupture with the Moors, he wrote home for reinforcements, but the Emperor at Tangiers, Mr. Simmons, our Consul at Tangiers, that he had not the least intention of going to war with the United States (the Commodore) by the frigate Essex, countermanded his former letter. Two days after the Essex failed, an express arrived at Gibraltar, from the Emperor, demanding of the Commodore passports for all vessels bound from his Dominions to Tripoli with wheat; and that he should take the Tripolitan hoop of war, then at Tripoli at Gibraltar, under his convoy, and be safe into Tripoli; that in case of refusal he should order Mr. Simmons out of his territories.
These demands the Commodore refused to comply with, and failed in company with Capt. May for Tangiers. Mr. Gavino, our Consul at Gibraltar, had distributed circulars to all the Consuls in that neighbourhood, to warn them of the danger he apprehended there would be in a few days in Americans passing the Straights without convoy.

RICHMOND, Supervisor's Office, June, 30, 1802.
IT being believed that considerable portions of lands in the back counties of the State of Virginia, on which the Direct Tax of the United States remains unpaid, are owned by persons residing out of the state; and the same having been advertised, in pursuance of the act of Congress of the 16th of March last, in pursuance of the act entitled "An act to lay and collect a Direct Tax within the United States," as may be seen by the notification of the Supervisor of the 2d of June last, and running in the Examiner of Richmond, that being the paper in which the laws of the state are printed, to be held for the tax and costs, in all cases where the same shall not be paid within fifteen days from the date of the notification agreed to; the 2d section of the said act; it is recommended to all who own lands in the said state, where they do not know the tax to have been paid, to take measures for having the transfers which have been lodged at the Surveyor's Office at Richmond, as directed by the said law, mentioned and examined, in order to the ascertaining & paying such tax where due. And as, in some instances, lands have been assessed in the names of persons heretofore owning, but who have alienated them, it is further recommended that, upon sending to examine the tax, if any names known to have been at any time connected as owner or owners with any tract or tracts in question, be sent forward, the better to guide the examination. The sales will take place generally in the month of December next, on dates which may be seen in the notification referred to above. This short sketch of the business is published in some of the papers of other states as a means of more certainly calling the attention of persons concerned, to the subject. E.

TO THE PUBLIC.
The Proprietors of the Charter for opening the Navigation of the Catawba and Wateree Rivers, having at length been, with much satisfaction, the completion of the Santee Canal, propo...
In the mean while they have determined to double the number of their shares for the purpose of admitting such persons as may choose to become subscribers.
The Charter of South-Carolina is in perpetuity, and these shares are forever exempted from any rate, tax, duty, assessment or imposition whatever.
The present proprietors think it a duty incumbent on them, to inform the public, that a very considerable sum is expected to be raised from the sale of vacant lands, which extend two miles on each side of the Catawba river, the whole length thereof from the North Carolina line down to Camden Ferry, a distance of not less than 120 miles, and in which is supposed are reserved to the company, not less than 58,000 or 60,000 acres...
It is further to be remarked, that the Catawba river is looked upon as the most proper site for the establishment of a magazine, foundry and arsenal, for the three Southern States, viz. North and South Carolina and Georgia; that surveys have been made, and a statement thereof forwarded on this subject some years ago, to the Secretary at war; that the State of South Carolina passed an act, authorizing a purchase by the United States, of a certain quantity of land within this State; and the Catawba company have offered to release to the United States, any of their lands on said river, for such purpose, on a fair valuation.
