THIRTY DOLLARS Reward.
Ran away from the subscriber, on Saturday, the 27th April,
NEGRO JOE:
HAD on when he went away, an old jacket and pantalettes of dark mixed cloth, with a pair of nankin pantalettes; also a great coat of light mixed coating, all of which was much worn. He is about 5 feet 2 inches high, tolerably black, he has two small scars on his face occasioned by a burn; he is about 18 years of age, but has a very young appearance. I suppose he is now lurking about Alexandria for the purpose of obtaining a passage down the Potomac, as far as Westmoreland county, Virginia, where he was raised and where his mother now lives.
The above reward will be given if taken in Alexandria, and delivered to me, or secured in some jail so that I get him again. All persons are forewarned hiring or employing said negro. Sydnor Baily.

FIFTEEN DOLLARS Reward.
Ran away from the subscriber on Friday, the 19th inst. a negro man named
ABRAM,
Between 50 and 60 years of age, about 5 feet 6 inches high, well made and squint eyed. Had on when he went away a brown halfhick jacket much worn at the sleeves, country cloth breeches, osnaburgh shirt much worn, a pair of old shoes, a drab yarn cap, and a wool hat with a piece out of the brim. He has lived several years as a ferryman at Colchester. I will give the above reward if he is secured in any jail, so that I get him again with all reasonable charges paid if brought home.

From the Salem Register.
From some French papers of February, we have been able to obtain some incidents of affairs, but nothing which regards the great questions of European politics. The Russian troops were at Sewastopol, in December, destined for Corfu, had been detained, and two 74 gun ships had sailed from that place to Muugrelia, to concur with the Russian arms against the Persians as the Russians had determined to hold a full communication between the Black and Caspian sea. The distance from the port to the coast of Muugrelia, is about two degrees of latitude, upon seven of east longitude; Sewastopol, by a Russian map of 1794, being about 44 N. L. and 51 E. L. from Ferro. The commercial establishment at Moscow has founded a school of commerce in that city, at their own expence. It is upon the plan of the school of M. Demidoff, begun in 1772 and removed to Petersburg in 1797. The empress dowager has accepted the patronage of it. The importation of foreign articles at St. Petersburg, in the past year, has been given at a sum exceeding 17 millions of roubles. To the friends of humanity, it must be agreeable to hear that the king of Denmark has abolished slavery in the Duchies of Holstein and Schleswig. The elector at Salzburg has also suppressed the tax imposed upon the Jews. Bonaparte has also been bountiful, we learn, to the daughter of the deceased minister Benenezec, who died without property.
From the interior of France we learn, that attentions continued to the Holy Father, who still was at Paris. On the 15th February he visited the Repository of Arts and Trades. On the occasion, the most useful inventions were displayed before him. The machinery of Richer attracted his notice. This machinery is to impress the paper money. It prints the text and the numbers. He then viewed the silk and cotton manufactories. A new engraving machine produced, invented by Conte, and employed in the work upon Egypt. Thousands crowded for his benediction, and the Holy Father administered the holy communion with his own hands in the parish church of St. Margaret to one hundred persons, chiefly laborers. This privilege was not indulged to the females, from the countless multitudes of them, who were obliged to be content with a general benediction, and a plenary indulgence. On the 2d of February eight bishops took the oath to his majesty, while his majesty was at the celebration of mass. L'Abbe Fournier is named as his majesty's chaplain. We ought to observe all these interesting circumstances, as they have a greater influence on the fate of France than sieges and battles. The news from Lyons is favorable to the full prosperity of that ancient city. It was in full industry, and notable by all its laborers to answer the constant demands. The sums coined at the mint, and reported in January, amounted in gold and silver to a sum exceeding 136 millions of francs, and the coins of 5 francs were in value above 106 millions, giving in the whole a sum above 242 millions. At the disposal of government, for the expences of the current year, 684 millions were announced, and 400 millions for the next year. Appearances were very favorable to the internal quiet of France, in the present posture of their public affairs.
In Holland, the alliance with France was so real, as that no opposition was expressed to the will of his imperial majesty. The exports of all fish from the Bavarian fisheries, were free of all duties.
In Germany, baron Thugut has been mentioned as the person who is expected in the command of the Venetian territories. Zunner had finished the Colossal statue of the Emperor Joseph II. and he had invented a machine to remove it by the labour only of ten men, though it is represented to contain four hundred weight of metal.
Nothing from Italy gives any particular alarm. It is suspected that powerful political objections will be made to the expected changes in Lombardy. Austria and Prussia have different interests in regard to that country, and Prussia is thought to be in consent with France. The last papers gives no information respecting the purposes of the French Emperor, or of his intended visit to that country.
The fever, which had raged at Leghorn, though not with the same fury as at Malaga, has been regarded by attentive Physicians, and a work much approved has been given to the world by Palloni.
All the American publications on the subject, which reflect great honor upon the
Medical faculty in America, have been suggested and published in Europe. Quiet is returning to Switzerland, and a visible change is confessed in the disposition of the places most opposed to the late plan of pacification.
From Spain we learn that in January, Admiral Gravion had reached Madrid, informed that the spirit of defamation in the English had exceeded all bounds. That the ships of war were stationed off the coast, and dispatched smaller craft to seize upon all their light vessels and burn all that fell into their hands. From another quarter it is said, that Bilboa had been summoned to deliver up all the shipping in the port, but that the Commandant had not complied, and the threatenings had not been executed.
All accounts from Europe, determine that the past had been an extraordinary season. We have continued reports of the inundations of the upper Rhine, and on the 28th February an uncommon storm of thunder and hail was felt at Glasgow, in Scotland. We learn also, that in Jan. last, 4 Austrian vessels perished in the Black sea.
The English report that the King of Sweden has been induced to display less opposition to the French in his last negotiations, and that probably no interruption may be expected very soon from Sweden.
The French maintain every appearance of hostilities in their gun boats, and uncommon vigor is shewn in their naval preparations, as well as in the ports of their allies.
In Catalonia, in Spain, they fortify the coasts against the hostile invaders with as much care as in England. The Spaniards were never more distressed in their commerce.
Of Scotland it is affirmed that its population increases. It is supposed that in 40 years it will contain 1,700,000 inhabitants, but in 1755, it was calculated at 1,235,380. The increase appears to be principally in the great towns, and the calculations are still partial.
From the (Baltimore) Telegraph.
TO THE PUBLIC.
The following cases afford the most positive proof that we have yet had in this city, of the powerful efficacy of the kine pock in preventing the small pox. They are of so important a nature that I have thought it my duty to lay them before the public without any delay.
CASE I.
On the eleventh of this month I was called to the house of Mr. Aubury Jones, No. 63. Cumberland Row, to visit Azariah Smith, who was seized on the day before with a chill succeeded by fever, head-ache and pain in the stomach. I found his pulse full and tense, with all the symptoms of an inflammatory fever, hourly increasing in violence. On further examination I discovered that this young man had never had the small pox, and that he had but a few days before arrived in the brig Martha and Mary, from Martinique where the small pox was very prevalent when he left it. I was also informed that on the passage one of the seamen took this disease, and died soon after the brig had arrived. From these circumstances I was led to believe that he had taken the natural small pox, and treated his case as such from the commencement. On the next day, (12 instant,) some appearance of this eruptive disease was observable, and on the fourteenth the eruptions were cut, very numerous on his body and limbs; and becoming confluent on his face; they were otherwise distinct, large and full. From the 20th to the 24th the disease began to turn; since which time the incrustations have been daily falling off. He is now able to walk about and is quite out of danger.
CASE II.
John Pennington an Apprentice boy to Mr. Jones, aged fourteen years, inoculated on the 11th instant in both arms with two different vaccine scabs.
Fifth Day.
15th. The inoculation took effect in the left arm.
Failed in the right.
Sixth Day.
16th. The inoculation appearing certain in the left arm and finding him almost constantly in the room with my small pox patient, I inserted some of the variolous matter into his right arm, with every care necessary to ensure its taking effect.
Eighth Day.
18th. The vaccine pustule, (which is of a small size) on the left arm has become fully characteristic, of a genuine cow-pock.
The variolous inoculation in the right arm has evidently taken effect. A small rising is plainly perceptible to the touch as well as visible.
Ninth Day.
19th. The inflammation round the vaccine pustule has not yet extended farther than its base; although he complains of the usual affection under the left arm.
The variolous inoculation has completely taken effect. It is raised—vesicular like inflammation in a slight degree.
Tenth Day.
20th. Both inoculations progress.
Eleventh Day.
21st. The vaccine pustule perfectly contracted; its central depression very considerable; the edges well raised; the inflammation extending; the auxiliary affection continues, but no other general or constitutional indisposition whatever.
The small pox pustule comes forward regularly; there is a little redness round the base; but it differs in no apparent manner from a kine pox of the seventh or 8th day, except in wanting the usual depression of the centre.
Twelfth Day.
22d. An inflammatory blush surrounds the vaccine pustule to an extent of one and an half inches diameter; was chilly and feverish last evening and complained of head ache.
The small pox pustule increased very much; inflammation surrounds it equal to the diameter of an half eagle. He also, can perceive some soreness in the auxiliary gland of the right side.
Fourteenth Day.*
The efflorescence extends to a considerable distance (three inches in circumference perhaps) round the vaccine pustule which is now beginning to dry. The soreness of auxiliary glands abated. A few pimples are observable this morning on his skin; he is in perfect health, although he has slept every night, and been daily in the room with the small pox patient ever since his inoculation on the 11th inst.
The small pox pustule flat; nearly resembling a cow pox pustule, an inflammatory blush surrounds it of two inches diameter. No auxiliary complaint remaining.
Fifteenth Day.
25th. The vaccine efflorescence declined; the pustule has now become dry; scab hard, smooth, and as regular as could be expected after the injuries which it received on the 13th day, by puncturing in for matter.
Considerable inflammation yet surrounds the small pox pustule. The pimples which made their appearance the evening before last, seem rather to decline than to progress—he continues in perfect health.
Sixteenth Day.
26th. With some difficulty removed the vaccine scab, which appears as characteristic as was expected.
The small pox pustule has also dried & is covered with a small irregular scab which yet seems deeply attached. The threatened eruptions also seem to be disappearing. He has perceived no uneasiness or complaint whatever.
Seventeenth Day.
27th. Continues perfectly well, the inflammation & pimples have all disappeared, the small pox pustule quite dry; scab oblong; irregular, and of a darker colour than small pox scabs usually are. Discharged for ever, secure against the small pox.
CASE III.
Francis Jones, aged two years, the child of Mr. Aubury Jones was inoculated at the same time, and in the same manner, as in the preceding case. This child took the kine pock and went through it regularly being daily exposed to the above case of natural small pox, without sustaining the least injury whatever.
CASE IV.
Edward Jenner Smith my own son, aged nineteen months, who had been inoculated for the kine pox during his first month, was inoculated on the seventeenth instant with small pox matter taken on the point of a lancet, from the above case of natural small pox. On the nineteenth instant marks of infection were observable from this inoculation; but in a few days every
* This boy was yesterday very improperly taken, without any knowledge or consent, by a respectable practitioner of this city, and carried into several houses where children were inoculated from him. It is supposed from the left arm, as the gentleman knew the circumstance of his having been inoculated in the right arm with small pox matter. The experiment was a dangerous one, and as so many mistakes have lately occurred, ought not to have been attempted in private practice, where any unexpected event must necessarily produce very unpleasant effects.

appearance of infection, declined without producing any injurious effects.
CASE V. Negro Phill, the slave of Mr. David Fulton, at the Globe Inn, in this city, had been inoculated for the kine pock, on the 27th April, eighteen hundred and two; on the nineteenth instant I inoculated him with various matter, taken this morning on thread from the above case of natural small pox. And with the same result as in my own son's case.
CASES VI. and VII. Mr. Joseph Smith's daughter and servant girl were both vaccinated on the second instant, and after having had the kine pock regularly, they were both inoculated on the 20th instant, with fresh small pox matter, taken from the above case of natural small pox; but without producing any other effect than the same which are stated in case four. A number of other cases have been tested in the same manner with the small matter, which was taken from Mr. Smith, (Case I.) and with the same result; but it is thought altogether unnecessary to give any other proof than the foregoing cases, which will, it is believed, be sufficient to convince any person (those only excepted who are determined not to believe, who have not sense enough to form any opinion on the subject) of the safety of the kine pock.
We have now only to guard against spurious cases, and it is much to be lamented that they are so common, and so little regarded as to leave many persons who may think themselves secure, yet liable to take the small pox. Some remarks on this subject, will be shortly laid before the public.

SATURDAY, MAY 11.
The sloop Unity, captain John Hand, arrived in Philadelphia, on Wednesday last, after a passage of not quite eighty-four hours from this place.
By last night's mail, we received the Norfolk Gazette and Public Ledger of the 6th instant; from which the following important information is extracted:—
By a gentleman from St. Thomas we are obligingly informed of some circumstances respecting the defeat of the Haytians before the city of St. Domingo, by the garrison under command of the brave Ferrand; who on this occasion it is said displayed all the qualifications of a consummate general, and all the firm intrepidity of real courage.
When the negro army appeared off the city, and were in a condition to attack it, a summons was sent, to the following purport: "JEAN JACQUES, the first, Emperor of Hayti, to General FERRAND, Commanding a division of the troops of the French Republic. As it is inconsistent with the laws and independence of the Empire, that any portion of the French army should be allowed to remain in the island. General Ferrand is summoned to surrender the city of St. Domingo in twenty-four hours; if at the end of that time the city shall not be evacuated, it will be delivered to plunder, and all the inhabitants thereof be put to the sword." It being difficult to procure any person who would risk the delivery of a suitable answer to this demand, the Commandant ordered three cannon shot to be leveled at the Black camp, which conveyed a defiance in terms as strong as the pen could have done, and doubtless as well understood.
The action was fought on the plain of St. Charles, on the 28th of March. The resources not less than the courage of Ferrand and his associates is seen in his finding means, with so small an army, to garrison every part of the city, and to make a sortie against a foe so numerous, so desperate, and so insatiable for blood and vengeance. Seconded by a little band of Heroes, he however, attacked successively, and successively carried, every intrenchment of the enemy. His second in command heading the attack on the first line received a very severe wound; not discouraged he led them on to the second, where he received several others; still concealing his situation from his companions, he conducted them to the third, in carrying which he received a musket ball through the lower viscera, of which he almost instantly died. From the Spanish troops but little aid was received in the first and partial engagements with the blacks, but in this decisive one, the presence of their commander, whom they loved and feared, animated them to actions which seemed to be inspired by a desire to surpass their French comrades.
The defeat was complete. 1300 Brigands were counted dead on the field of battle; all their ammunition, a large portion of their military stores, their magazines of provisions, and the military chest and treasure of the Emperor, fell into the hands of the victor; whose loss did not exceed 80 men.
The fleet of admiral Messessi (or Minissis) arrived either on the day of the battle, or the day succeeding, but had not at the time landed any troops. The ships did not come to anchor, but after putting the aids which they had for the garrison on shore, stood out to sea.
We understand that the inhabitants of St. Domingo have been invited to return; as the siege is raised, and the army of Dessalines completely withdrawn.
(Boston Gazette.) We have seen a letter from Bordeaux of the date of 4th March, which furnishes the following intelligence of our affairs with Spain: It states, "that capt. Dutton of the United States navy, passed through that place, from Madeira, with dispatches from Mr. Munroe, to our Minister in Paris; that it was understood he had not succeeded in the object of his mission to the Court of Spain."
On Monday, the 25th ultimo, about a quarter past six, P. M. an earthquake was sensibly felt by many persons in the town of Salem, Massachusetts.
The Meda, and Clara Spanish frigates, have been declared lawful prizes, and condemned for the benefit of the captors. The share of each captain employed in the service amounts to ninety thousand pounds sterling.

From England.—By capt. Farsham, who arrived yesterday from Liverpool, we received London papers to March 19, inclusive. A paper of the latest date mentions the arrival of a Russian Messenger, with dispatches of great importance. The preparations for an important secret expedition were continued. The troops to be employed consist of two squadrons of dragoons, and 14 regiments of infantry. The expedition is placed under the command of general Craig, and was considered on the point of sailing. It was conjectured to be bound to South America.
A London paper of March 18, mentions the receipt of late Paris papers, and observes, "there is more talk on the continent of negotiations than of campaigns."
From NANTES, March 18.
"The prices of sugar and coffee stated in our price current, are merely nominal. We fell but with the greatest difficulty; and it is expected a depreciation will shortly take place, influenced by the dulness of business, and the necessity some of our Commission Merchants are under to sell. West India produce declines to a fall at Bordeaux and Amsterdam likewise. Cottons, indigo, cocoa, taffic, and potatoes, are much requested, and bought off at landing. Pepper is dull at 33 3/4, notwithstanding the late increase of duties. Tobacco holds up, without however being particularly in demand."
