A VALUABLE MILL FOR SALE.
THE subscriber wishes to sell his MILL, known by the name of Clifton Mill, within two and an half miles of Dumfries, on the waters of Quantico, which is as constant a stream as any in this part of the country, and in an exceeding healthy situation; very conveniently situated to a fine wheat country, not being more than half a mile out of the way, in going to Dumfries, from the main road leading from Frazier Court-House, Centerville &c. (and by some thought not any out of the way at all) and a very good road to it. There are, if the purchaser chooses, 227 1/2 acres of land which may go with mill, (except one acre which will be reserved) or a smaller quantity as may be agreed on. The mill is an over-shot, with a wheel of 20 feet 9 inches and 4 feet head, with two pair of Stones. One pair of French burrs of 5 feet, the other of Cologne, with every apparatus necessary for carrying on merchant business to the best advantage. The mill house is fifty feet long and twenty seven feet wide, two stories high, with a small kiln for drying corn, together with barn, stable, cow house and lumber house, convenient to the mill. A convenient dwelling house, (not quite finished) with a kitchen, meat and corn house; the whole of which have been built within 7 years past. There are two very thriving young orchards of peach and other fruit trees. It was supposed, had not the frost killed the fruit this spring, upwards of 100 gallons of brandy might have been made from them. Should the whole of the land be required with the mill, there is another small house, kitchen and meat house, at a short distance from the former.
The situation of this property must render it a desirable acquisition to any person inclined to engage in this line of business, particularly so as it is situated so near tide water. It is deemed unnecessary to say any thing more respecting the premises, as it is presumed any person inclined to purchase would wish to see them. Nothing would induce me to part with this valuable property, but the pressing demands against me which I am anxious to discharge, therefore a great bargain may be expected. Any further information may be known on application to,

The MELO DRAME being new to the English and American Stages, it may be necessary to observe that in this species of dramatic composition, instrumental music is occasionally introduced during the pauses of the dialogue, with a view of heightening the effect, and aiding the expression of those passions which occupy the scene. On the English Stage it has succeeded beyond calculation, and is presented to the public of Alexandria, under the strongest impression that it will again contribute, in an eminent degree, to their rational pleasures.

From the Gazette of the United States.
MANAGEMENT OF THE SINKING FUND.
No. III.
BEFORE the 29th of April, 1801, Secretary Gallatin might have been unwilling to avow his doctrine about employing the treasury, and not paying the debt. But the resolution for inquiring into the management of the sinking fund, pressed him to say something; and the doctrine came out in his explanatory letter, on the 3d of March, 1803. Extra ordinary as it is, let us have the candour to hear him on the subject. If such be the law, however unexpected the discovery, the benefit must be allowed him in his own vindication.
His argument, if argument it may be called, is entitled to a place among the political and philological rarities of the time. It is the more worthy of observation, as it serves to shew how far the language of the country is understood by the manager of the sinking fund, or how far he reprobates every thing like sophistry or artifice, especially as to his authority over the public monies.
The appropriation made by the first section of the act of the 29th of April, 1802, has already been the subject of remark. The second section enjoins as a positive duty on the secretary of the treasury to cause to be paid, annually to the commissioners of the sinking fund the sum of 7,300,000 dollars, thus appropriated. So says Secretary Gallatin. And after this he goes on to say— Provided, that the secretary had placed at their disposition, in due time, the funds necessary to meet the instalments and interests due in the year, it would be a good execution of the law, if he paid to them, the remainder, of the appropriation on the last day of the year; in which case it would be impossible for them to apply that remainder till the ensuing year. What! To conducting the financial affairs of a nation, are such slender exceptions, such fractional arguments, to be acted upon by the first official officer of the treasury? And are they to be so acted upon, in opposition to the general scope of a law avowedly intended to make a determinate impression upon the public debt? If the discharge of 7,300,000 dollars of principal and interest must be effected in each year, out of the monies appropriated to the sinking fund, it is incumbent on the secretary of the treasury to cause the monies to be paid so as to fulfil, not to defeat, the object of the law. This single sentiment might suffice for a refutation of this part of his argument, were it not that such fallacy deserves to be further exposed. Who is the manager of the sinking fund—and who the secretary of the treasury? Are they two different men—strangers to the views of each other? Or are they, in effect, one and the same person? Let his supposed case be stated in plain language, adapted to the practical sentiment of honest men! Albert Gallatin, in his special quality of manager of the sinking fund, cannot discharge seven millions three hundred thousand dollars of interest and principal of the public debt, in the course of one year: because the same Albert Gallatin, in his general quality of secretary of the treasury, will not permit the requisite monies to be drawn from the treasury before the last day of the year.
Admit, however, if your can, that the manager Gallatin is to be thus divided from the secretary Gallatin, would it be impossible to apply any remainder of the appropriation, on the last day of the year, to the payment of such part of the domestic debt as is reimbursable at pleasure? Seasonable notice might be given, that a proportion of this debt, equal to such remainder of the appropriation, would be ready to be paid by the creditors on the last day of the year; in which case the interest would cease from that day. There would then be an effective extinguishment of so much debt; and all this might be done with facility and certainty. The whole is a very plain operation. One observation more, and this topic is dismissed! It respects the mode of conducting the business of the sinking fund, under the management of Secretary Gallatin.—According to his own statement, the disbursements out of the treasury should, themselves, in what manner the money is applied by the commissioners. The disbursements and the application are so identified in the mode of conducting the business, that there cannot be, in that respect, an unaccounted balance. They are made
not only on the same day, but at the same moment, if Secretary Gallatin has stated the subject correctly. Where then is his impossibility of disbursing and applying a portion of the sinking fund on the last day of the year? Is the mode of conducting the business on that day different from the mode of conducting it on every other day?

NEW YORK, August 3.
MAYORS OFFICE.
6th May 1803.
The Mayor having, pursuant to the authority vested in him by law, and by the advice of the Health Committee, requested the Physicians to report to him the number of cases of infectious or malignant fever under their care since the 2d July last, together with the probable cause of the disease in each case, presents to his fellow citizens the following result:
That out of 30 physicians who have reported to him, 18 have met with no case of the above description in their practice—from the other reports it appears,
That from the 20th of July to the 5th of August, inclusive, 33 cases of Bilious Malignant Fever have occurred, sixteen of which have terminated in death, eight in recovery, and that nine remain still doubtful. In this account is included the captain of a New London Packet, who died after his departure from this port, and the papers announce two other cases of the same description, which must be added to the list.
That of the above number thirteen were taken ill on board of vessels lying in or near the Coffee house slip; seventeen resided or were occupied in its vicinity, and with one exception between that and the Old slip and of the three others, one resided in Garden street, and two were labourers in a sugar house, where the blood employed in that business is at this season very liable to putrefaction.
And that since active measures have been taken to cleanse the part of the city in which it originated, only three cases of bilious fever have occurred.
These facts seem to indicate the cause of the distemper, and to point out the steps immediately necessary to eradicate it, or prevent its progress. An extreme attention to cleanliness, and a cordial co-operation with the gentlemen who have undertaken the office of inspection, in the discovery and removal of nuisances, and a very plentiful use of lime wherever the filth cannot be removed, are measures which the Mayor earnestly recommends to his fellow citizens, as the means best adopted to the end proposed.
If extreme activity at this moment, in the execution of these measures should, with the blessing of Almighty God, restore that degree of public health which has partially been interrupted, and allay that alarm which must, when the facts are known, be considered as disproportioned to the cause, it must be a source of the highest gratification to those gentlemen in the different wards who have so cheerfully given their services to the public in the disagreeable employment of enforcing them, and ought to stimulate them to perseverance an exertion.
The citizens may be assured that a true state of facts will be given to them from time to time by the Health committee and the commissioners of the health Office, who meet every evening at the Alms House. And they are cautioned not to give easy credit to alarming reports propagated by fear, &c. the spirit of ex-aggeration.
Sloop Charlotte, Lomes, 6 days from Georgetown, S. C. with flour, bound for Boston. Left there, sloop —, Lawrence, of and for Boston, to sail next day, with a cargo of flour; schooner Busy, Harman, of and for do. to sail in two day, with the like cargo; a schooner for this port, to sail next day; and brig —, Brown, to sail for Boston in two days.—Brig Jane and Fanny had just arrived from Newburyport. August 4, off Cape Hatterass, at 5 P. M. saw two armed schrs. one with black and the other with yellow sides, apparently of 15 guns each, standing to and from the southward. At 6 P. M. they met, and came to an engagement. The yellow sided schooner lost her foremast in the action. Soon after saw a boat full of men go on board her; and suppose, from this circumstance, she was captured.
August 9.
The British Packet Townsend, capt.
Dodds, arrived at this port yesterday from Falmouth. She left there on the 13th June, and brings London Papers to the 9th. They contain no intelligence particularly important.
It was reported at Falmouth, the day before the Packet sailed, that the British frigate Doris, capt. Pearson, had fallen in with and engaged two French frigates, one of which he captured after a very severe action. Capt. P. lost his arm & 23 men. The Doris had taken in the British Channel, a few days before, the French frigate Sylph, from St. Domingo for France, and sent her into Plymouth.
The capt. of the True American, from Salou, informs us that a Tripolitan brig of 16 guns, commanded by a Scotchman was cruising off Cape de Gatt in the Mediterranean. Markets at Barcelona dull, flour 7 dols,
By the brig Minerva, capt. Main, we have received a file of Bordeaux papers to the 10th, and Paris to the 5th June; from which the following articles are translated:
Berlin, May 24.
Citizen Laforet, minister extraordinary from the French Republic, has had a first audience of his majesty who received him very graciously.
For these two weeks great activity prevails in our department of foreign affairs, Couriers are frequently dispatched to Paris, Petersburg, Vienna and London. It appears this correspondence is relative to the fate of Hanover. Our Court, so far from wishing to have that country taken possession of, as had formerly been the case, is desirous of having it protected from invasion. That has been manifested to the French Government, from whom an answer is hourly expected.
Genoa, May 19.
A vessel arrived at this port, brings the distressing intelligence that the plague has made its appearance at Malta, and has committed dreadful ravages; more than 60 men of the garrison died every day, and the disorder has communicated to the inhabitants. The king of the two Sicilies had caused a cordon of troops to be established in order to prevent all intercourse between Malta and Sicily.—(Extract from the official Journal.)
Vienna, May 21.
Couriers between Vienna, Paris and Berlin are of late very frequent.
It is now positively affirmed that the Journey of his majesty to Galicia, and the interview of the three sovereigns which was to be the consequence, will not take place. Our monarch will content himself for this year with the journey to Bohemia, which is to be effected only about the 20th of next month, the Elector of Salburg not being expected before that time at Prague. From this new disposition there will not be any great assembly of troops, but only some small camps of exercise in each province. Our court seems desirous to avoid every appearance of military preparations, which might give rise to misinterpretations or false conjectures. It may therefore be fully depended upon that whatever may be the issue of the differences betwixt France and England, Austria will observe the most strict neutrality, and if it ever takes an active part it will be in the quality of a mediator only. It is even reported, in order to prevent the effusion of blood, and in its quality of guarantee for the independence of the order of Malta, it offered its mediation at the same time with the Emperor of Russia.
Paris, Jun 3-5.
The counsellor of state, prefect of police, has this day issued his orders for building gun boats in Paris, with the funds now deposited at the office of the secretary general of his prefecture.
In consequence of an arrest of the prefect of Maine-et-Loire, a subscription has been opened at the secretary's office of the prefecture of that department the proceeds of which are to be employed for the building of a frigate that should be named Maine et Loire.
They write from Milan, that most part of the English that were at Leghorn, and in all the other cities of Italy, have departed from thence with all their effects.
On the first June, the military members of the conservative senate, the legislative body and the tribunate met at Tivoli to

dine together. It may easily be considered that the interest of the country and present circumstances have occupied all minds and warmed all hearts. At the dessert the following toasts were drank:
 1. The republic;  2. Bonaparte the great;  3. The second and third consuls;  4. Harmony between the great powers & between all Frenchmen;  5. Governments friendly to peace;  6. The liberty of the seas;  7. The prosperity of commerce;  8. The armies of the Republic;  9. The brave who shall first descend upon the territory of the violator of treaties. 
The Conservative Senate has decreed, that there should be levied upon the salaries of the members of the senate, the sum necessary for building with the least delay, a first rate ship of war.
The English who are prisoners at Rouen, are ordered to present themselves every Sunday to the commandant of the place.
[Extract from the Moniteur .]
PARIS, June 4, 1803.
Entrance of the French army into Hanover, and Proclamation of Gen. Mortier to the Hanoverians.
General Mortier, commander of a body of troops, marched from Coeverden, whither he had established his head quarters on the 26th May. On the 28th an Hanoverian battalion evacuated the Bishoprick of Osnaburg.
General Mortier, having having had knowledge of the proclamation of the king of England, answered to it with the following:
Edward Mortier, Lieut. Gen. Commander in Chief, to the inhabitants of the Electorate of Hanover.
Hanoverians, an army enters upon your territory; it comes, not to spread consternation, but to cut off that portion of the continent you inhabit from a government which is an enemy to the tranquillity of Europe, and which glories in trampling under foot every principle of the rights of the people and of civilized nations.
The First Consul, faithful to the sentiments of moderation and humanity, which distinguish him as eminently as his political and military virtues, has without effect, exhausted every means of conciliation to prevent a rupture.
The king of England, faithless to his most sacred engagements, has dishonored his signature by refusing to evacuate Malta, as he had solemnly pledged himself to do by the treaty of Amiens; he has given the signal of hostilities, and from that moment he becomes alone responsible before God and man for the calamities which the scourge of war might draw upon the states under his dominion.
I am informed that proclamations dictated by the most blind fury, have been made to you for the purpose of drawing you into a contest which must be altogether foreign to your inclination; guard yourselves from an aggression as silly as it would be useless, & of which you alone would be the victims.
Hanoverians, I promise you safety and protection, if, consulting your true interest, you separate your cause from that of a Sovereign, who, breaking off all ties of good faith, has by that very act, freed you from the attachment which you might have thought you owed him.
The most severe discipline shall be observed among the troops under my command. Your persons, your properties shall be respected; but in return, I require from you such conduct as is to be expected from a peaceable people.

MODERN PHILOSOPHY.
When Philosophy saw the Muses standing by Boethius in his affliction, she spoke in terms of some surprise and indignation. In our time this indignation would have been, retorted by the sisters of the song. Philosophy has appeared, not to console, but to deject. When I have read and thought deeply on the accumulated horrors, and all the gradations of wickedness and misery, through which the modern systematic philosophy of Europe has conducted her illuminated votaries, to the confine of political death and mental darkness, my mind for a space feels a convulsion, and suffers the nature of an insurrection. I look around me. I look to human actions and to human principles. I consider again and again, what is the nature and effect of learning and of instruction; what is the doctrine of evidence, and the foundation of truth. I ask myself are all these changed? Have the moral and the natural laws of God to his creatures another basis? Has the lapse of fifty years made an alteration in HIM, who is declared to be THE SAME to day, yesterday, and forever? Can the violence, the presumption, the audacity, the arrogance, the tyranny of man, drunk with self-idolatry and temporary success, change the nature and essence of God and of his works, by calling good evil and evil good? I am told, that human reason is nearly advanced to full perfection; I am assured, that she is arrived at the haven where she would be. I again look around me. I ask where is that haven? Where is that steady gale which has conducted her? I listen, but it is to the tempest: I cast my view abroad, but the ocean is every where perturbed.—I pause again. Perhaps, it is "the wind and storm fulfilling HIS word!"
Pursuits of Literature.
Extraordinary Example of Honesty.
A person of the Quaker profession, having, through misfortune about forty years ago become insolvent; and not being able to pay more than eleven shillings in the pound, formed a resolution, if providence smiled on his future endeavors, to pay the whole amount; and in case of death, he requested his sons to liquidate his debts by their joint proportions. It pleased God, however, to spare his life, and after struggling with a variety of difficulties, (for his livelihood chiefly depended on his own labor) he at length saved sufficient to satisfy every demand.
A few days ago, the old man came with no inconsiderable sum, to the surviving son of one of his creditors, who had been dead about thirty years, and insisted on paying him the money he owed his father, which he accordingly did with heart felt satisfaction.
Such a display of virtuous resolution we record with infinite pleasure, as it not only reflects the highest honor on a worthy individual, but also on that society to which he belongs; whose members have long been distinguished, and deservedly respected, for their upright and equitable dealing. On this occasion we cannot help exclaiming in the expressive language of Pope, "An honest man's the noblest work of God."
(Lon. Pap.)
"Multos timere debet, quem multi ti-
ment," or in English "He, of whom many are afraid, ought himself to fear many." This is an aphorism of one of the wisest of mankind, and is certainly true. What a cursed stew then, must Bonaparte be in!!
A late London paper mentions, that the house of Baring and Co. to whom Mr. Gallatin sold the shares which our government formerly had of the stock of the bank of the United States, will clear 40,000. sterling by the bargain.

Lands for Sale.
The subscriber wishes to sell a TRACT of LAND, situate near the foot of the Blue Ridge and Short Hills, in Loudoun county, Virginia: Bounded partly by the Potomac River, within two miles of Harper's Ferry and the mouth of Shenandoah. It is a strong, good soil, answering perfectly well for plaster of Paris, and contains by patent 2340 acres. It is so well known, as a valuable and fine tract of land, that a further description is unnecessary, as those who incline to purchase will of course view and examine it. A clear and indisputable title will be given by the subscriber. There is no mortgage, judgment, debt, lease, claim, or demand whatsoever against any part. It having been always let to tenants at low annual rents, who are raised and removable at will, but the occupying tenants (through favor only) have been permitted to claim from any coming-in tenant, one half of the deposit money, as settled between them for improvements and good will; the other half going to the landlord. There are at present sixteen or seventeen tenants upon the estate at very low rents: and it is recommended as an object well worth the attention of any person who would purchase the whole, and parcel it out into lesser farms, the resident tenants and others wishing to buy parts of it. The terms are a portion of one fourth paid down in money, or approved negotiable paper, the remainder in one, two or three years as may be agreed on, carrying interest from the day of sale. Application may be made personally, or by letter, to the subscriber residing at Warburton, on Potomac River, near Alexandria, to Mr. James M c Ilhenny, near the premises, or to Mr. John Janney, merchant, Alexandria.
