RAN AWAY on Saturday, the 5th of this month, a bright Mulatto Man, named STEPHEN; about 28 or 30 years of age: He is about 5 feet 7 or 8 inches high, pleasant countenance, speaks rather slow, but very active and handy at any work; he served an apprenticeship to a weaver, is a good workman at that business, and a remarkable good hand in a brick-yard; in short, he is smart at any thing he is set about; he is very fond of spirits of any kind. I cannot describe his dress. He never ran away before, so I expect he has been enticed off by some artful villain; if it be the case, and the man can be apprehended, I will give 50 Dollars on his conviction of the theft.

LONDON, January 26.
An epidemic disorder has lately manifested itself at Rottengen, a little town of Wurzenburgh, in Germany, to which several persons have fallen victims. Several physicians have, in consequence, been sent there, to investigate the nature of the disease, and all communication with the neighbouring country is in the mean time prevented.
January 28.
We received this morning Paris papers to the 25th inst. The diet at Ratisbon having nearly terminated their labours upon the subject of the indemnities, seem now likely to be involved in a discussion upon another question, which, though it probably will not occupy so much time as the former one, will nevertheless be disputed with great pertinacy.
The Emperor of Germany, through the medium of his Minister to the Diet of Ratisbon, has made a very important proposition to that assembly respecting the future composition of the College of Princes as far as relates to religion. His Imperial Majesty proposes that the number of Catholic votes shall amount to seventy, and the Protestant votes to sixty eight. The Diet had not yet taken this proposition into consideration and it is probable that it will meet with a very strong opposition from the Prussian party.
The intelligence which is taken from the German papers respecting Turkey, is, as usual, extremely contradictory. Some accounts state, that the defeat of the Pacha of Cairo was not so complete as has been represented, though it is admitted that he cannot advance against the Bays without very considerable reinforcements; and that the English have observed the strictest neutrality during the whole of the contest. Other letters say, that the English privately supplied the Bays with light artillery and ammunition, and thereby enabled them to defeat the Turkish troops. The Porte, it is said, has applied to France and Russia, to prevail upon the English government to evacuate Egypt.
Letters from Genoa state, that three French sail of the line had arrived in that port, for the purpose of conveying the Polish troops to St. Domingo.
The funds are 57, 95.

Both Houses of Parliament will meet this week more pro forma, than for the dispatch of important business. One of the principal attacks to be brought forward by the Grenville Party, will, it is understood, relate to the finance of the country. An attempt is to be made to refute Mr. Addington's late statement respecting the flourishing situation of our revenue and commerce.
The following letter, received by a merchant at Bristol, from a correspondent at Honduras, shews that the reports of a dispute with the Spaniards there, were not altogether without foundation, notwithstanding subsequent accounts state that nothing serious followed:
"Honduras, Sept. 24, 1802."
"The Spaniards have been applied to for giving up the River Rio Rondo. Their answer was nearly as follows: "So far from giving up the Northern Rivers, which they held by conquest, they expected to receive orders from their court to take possession of the British settlements in Honduras."
Three interesting Bulls are said to have been demanded from the Pontiff by the Court of Madrid; the first, to nominate the Prince of Peace, Visitor General of all the Orders and Cloisters in the Monarchy; the second, to secure to government the income of all vacant livings for twenty years; and the third to invest the Archbishop of Toledo, brother to the Prince, with full powers to dissolve as many cloisters as he thinks proper.
Accounts have been received at Bombay, that a dangerous insurrection had taken place between the followers of Mahomet at Lahore, and the sect of people called Soonees. The seeds of this dissension were sown long since by Behadur Shah, who, in his zeal for supporting and propagating the doctrines of Ali, declared his intention of adding to the general prayer a new sentence, viz. "Ali is the servant of God, and the heir of the Pro-
phet." This sentence had been omitted in the service for some time, till one of the readers in the Grand Mosque introduced the passage, in consequence of which the indignant and insatuated populace rose up, and immediately sacrificed him to their resentment. The ringleaders of this affray were seized and thrown into prison, on which the populace again rose, burst open the doors and liberated the prisoners; the guards fired on the assailants, who being armed, a smart action commenced, in which, it is reported, upwards of 200 persons fell, and the Soonees were obliged to retreat in great disorder. This circumstance has occasioned the greatest confusion amongst the devotees of each party, between whom much blood is likely to be spilt.
In the course of the last year entered port of Greenock 1,405 ships, of 103,330 tons burthen, and navigated by 7,770 men; failed from that port 1,559 ships, of 102,008 tons burthen, and navigated by 7,785 men. During the same period, entered the adjacent harbor of Port Glasgow, 294 ships, of 27,959 tons, and 1,788 men; failed from it, 369 vessels of 36,346 tons, and 2,399 men.

BERNE, January 13.
The courier from Paris who arrived yesterday, brought us the constitution of our canton decreed by the deputies, and approved of by the first Consul. The Canton is divided into districts, and the districts into tribes. The citizens of the canton, enjoying a fortune of 1000 f. have alone the right of voting. Each tribe name an elector out of fifty citizens. The union of those electors forms an electoral body of the canton, which names the grand council composed of two hundred and ninety nine members. It is to that council that the legislative power is confided. It appoints to all places. Twenty seven of its members from the petty council from which are to be taken two avoyers, a treasurer and chancellor, who form, with the two oldest and two youngest councillors, the executive committee. The grand council appoints from among its members those who are to form a tribunal of civil appeal and a criminal tribunal.
The same letters announce, that the cantonia organizations of Basle, Fribourg, Lucerne, and Soleure, are also completed: and that they resemble those of Zurich and Berne. The most remarkable difference between the old and new constitution of the cantons, formerly aristocratical, is the political equality between all the citizens who compose them, the application of which is to be found chiefly in the composition of the electoral body.
The provisions by which the exercise of the administrative and that of the judicial powers are confided to the same body, has excited many remonstrances. It is supposed, that provision will be changed.
We learn further, that the establishment of a general Helvetic diet, to assemble once a year, and to consist of one deputy from each canton, it agreed upon. To establish certain equality among the different cantons, the deputies of the great cantons are to have different voices in proportion, respectively, to their population. The meetings of the general diet will be in turns, at Zurich, Berne, Basle, Soleure, Fribourg, and Lucerne. The deputy for the place at which the diet meets, will be President for the time being.

REPORT.
The Committee of Ways and Means to whom it was yesterday referred, by a resolution of this house, to enquire and report, whether Commissioners of the sinking fund have, agreeably to the act 'making provision for the redemption of the whole of the public debt of the U. States.' applied the sum of seven millions three hundred thousand dolls. to the payment of the principal and interest of the public debt? And also, generally to enquire into the accounts and proceedings of the commissioners of the sinking fund; have according to order, proceeded therein, and beg leave to report:
That pursuant to the directions of the committee, a letter was written, and addressed by the chairman of the committee, to the secretary of the treasury, covering a copy of the resolution of the house; and also, a statement of queries thereon, to which the answer of the secretary was required—and that to his answer, which together with sundry explanatory documents is annexed to this report, the committee beg leave to refer, and request that it may be considered as a part of their report.
MARCH 2d, 1803.
At half past 6 o'Clock, P. M.
SIR,
The enclosed resolution this day passed the House of Representatives; the annexed paper, marked (A. 1.) contains the objections stated by the mover of the resolution, to which you are requested, if practicable, to return an answer previous to the dissolution of congress. It may be necessary to remark, that the objections to the report of the commissioners of the sinking fund, consisted principally of a supposed variance between the statements contained in that report, and those submitted by the treasury at the last session of congress, and a denial that the sum appropriated by the law of the last session, [seven million three hundred thousand dolls.] had been applied agreeably to the provisions of the act, and that the sum disbursed by the treasury on account of the public debt, has not been fully accounted for—an unaccounted balance remaining of 115,889 dolls. 44 cents; moreover, that the sum of 4,914,000 guilders is upon estimate.
With perfect esteem, I have the honor to be, Yours, (Signed) JOHN RANDOLPH.
ALBERT GALLATIN, Secretary of the Treasury.
In the House of Representatives of the U. States.
Wednesday, March 2, 1803.
On Motion,
RESOLVED, That the committee of ways and means be directed to enquire, whether the commissioners of the sinking fund have, agreeably to the directions of the act, entitled 'an act making provision for the redemption of the whole of the public debt of the United States,' applied the sum of seven millions three hundred thousand dolls. provided by the same, to the principal and interest of the public debt; and to enquire, generally, into the accounts and proceedings of the commissioners of the sinking fund, and to report to the house,
Extract from the Journal.
WILLIAM LAMBERT, for JOHN BECKLEY, Clerk.
(A. 1.)
 1. Have the commissioners of the sinking fund applied the sum of 7,300,000 dolls. to the payment of the public debt, in the year 1803? If they have not applied it, why has it not been done?  2. What was the true amount of interest on the public debt for the year eighteen hundred and two? And is the sum of 4,065,738 dollars, 47 cents, that true amount? A detailed account is requested.  3. What have been the actual remittances to Holland during the year 1802? A detailed account of all the bills, contracts, &c. is requested, with the names of the persons with whom contracts have been made, and from whom bills have been purchased, with the price paid. 
4. If the contracts and bills do not cover all the balance in the hands of the commissioners, an account of the remainder is requested, with the names of the persons in whose hands the same remains, with the particular sum held by each person.
5. What were the sums disbursed from the treasury, on account of the domestic debt, between the 1st of October, 1801, and the 1st of January, 1802; and what were the sums disbursed for the same account between October 1st, 1802, and January 1, 1800.
6. In the Treasury Report of December 1801 in table P. the interest of foreign debts for 1802, is said to be 176,931 dolls. in table R. the interest is said to be 1,145,250 guilders—from whence arises the difference? How is the interest stated in table P. made up?
7. An account of the remittances forwarded to Holland, or purchased in 1803, is requested, if convenient—the account to be in detail; and likewise such other information, as the secretary of the treasury may think will elucidate the transactions of the commissioners.
TREASURY DEPARTMENT, March 3, 1803.
SIR,
I had the honor to receive last night at 7 o'clock your letter of the same day, enclosing a resolution of the house in relation to the accounts of the sinking fund, and certain enquiries proposed on that subject by the mover of the resolution.
Although I may give information sufficient to come within the meaning of the resolution, and to elucidate the transactions of the commissioners, time will not perhaps permit, to procure all the detailed accounts specified in the enquiries; all that can be examined and transcribed in the course of the day, shall be transmitted.
I must premise that I had received yesterday from the register of the treasury, a letter hereunto annexed (A.2.) accompanying an official statement (B.) of the warrants drawn on the treasury, during the year 1802, on account of the public debt, and amounting (after deducting one hundred and nineteen thousand 592, dolls. and 78 cents, repayments on account of the Dutch debt) to 9,333,407 dolls. 49 cents. This sum is 39,344 dollars and 88 cts. less than the sum of 9,372,752 dolls. and 28 cents, which is stated in the report of the secretary of the treasury, to the commissioners of the sinking fund to have been disbursed on that account during that year.
This error arose, as stated by the Register from the necessity of making the report of all the transactions of the year 1802, in the first week of February, 1803, and before the books of the treasury for the last quarter of that year could be posted up.
The difference resulting from the correction, consists in that the disbursements out of the treasury, during the year 1802, were on account of the reimbursement & interest of the domestic debt 4,618,021 dollars 39 cents and on account of the Dutch debt 3,240,399 dolls. 25 cents, instead of being 4,654,699 dollars 61 cents, and 3,243,065 dollars 91 cents as stated in the report; and in that the payment in advance, and on account of the annual appropriation of 1803, was only 745,807 dollars and 40 cents, instead of 785,152 dollars 28 cents as stated in the Report.
The objections of the present enquiry seem to be.
I.
An elucidation of certain variations between the report of the commissioners of the sinking fund, and that made on the 18th of Dec. 1801, to congress; to which it is presumed that the second and sixth enquiries of the mover of the resolution refer.
In the statement (P) annexed to the report of the 18th Dec. 1801, the interest of the public debt, including the annual reimbursement of the six per cent. and deferred stocks, is stated at 5,228,034 dolls. 67 cents.
In the report of the commissioners of the sinking fund, the interest is stated at dolls. 4,065,738 57 And the reimbursement of 6 per cent & deferred stocks,
1,119,869 37

Making altogether, 5,183,607 3/4
The difference between the two statements is, 44,426 7/8 Which arises from the following items, viz.
1st. The annual interest on the temporary loans obtained from the bank of the United States, is stated in the former report at 152,900 dols. but one million two hundred and ninety thousand dollars of the principal of that debt, having been paid to the bank on the 30th June last, the interest on that sum ceased after that day, which makes the annual interest on those loans, 35,450 dols. less for that year, and reduces that item in the last report to 117,450, as will appear by the annexed statement (C) which in conformity to the wishes of the mover of the resolution, as expressed in his second enquiry, gives several items of the gross amount of 4,065,738 dols. 57 cents, stated in the report of the commissioners of the sinking fund, as the amount of interest for 1802.
2d. The interest due for 1802, on the foreign debt, is stated in the report of the 18th Dec. 1801, at 476,931 dols. And in report to the commissioners of the sinking fund, as per statement (C) hereunto annexed, at 467,731
Making a difference of dols. 9,200 In both statements, the interest, properly so called, is the same, viz. 1,145,250 guilders equal at 40 cents per guilder, to 458,100 dols. but the difference arises from the items of commissions and gratuities.
In the statement of December 1801, to the sum of dols. 458,100 are added the following commissions viz. One per cent on the interest equal to dols. 4,581 One per cent on 12,500 guilders, gratuities on the Dutch loans payable that year, 125 guilders equal to 50 One per cent on 3,550,000 guilders, the then supposed amount of the installments, falling due during 1802 in Holland and Antwerp, 35,500 guilders, equal to 14,200 18,831
Making as above stated, dols. 476,931 In the report of the commissioners of the sinking fund, to the said sum of dols. 458,100 are added only the two first mentioned commissions of 4,631 But on the other hand the gratification of 12,500 guilders, which in the report of December, 1801, is considered as part of the principal of the debt, and not included in the interest, is, in this last report considered as part of the interest; it never having been the practice in former reports of the board, to include the payments of those gratuities in the account of principal. This item is equal to dols. 5,000 Making altogether as above stated, dols. 467,731
The reason why the last mentioned commission of one per cent. on the payment of installments of the principal, and stated in the report of 18th Dec. 1801, as abovementioned, at 35,000 guilders, has been omitted in the report to the commissioners of the sinking fund, remains to be explained.

The trial of Colonel DESPARD, and his associates, which took place on the 7th and 9th Feb. occupies the whole of the London paper of the 10th. Its length prevents our giving it entire. The evidence against Col. DESPARD fully substantiated the charge of high treason, & the jury pronounced him guilty, but recommended him to mercy. Of his associates, one was given up by the Attorney-General, no evidence appearing against him; two were acquitted by the jury, and nine found guilty. The address of Lord ELLENBOROUGH to the prisoners was solemn, awful, and impressive, and filled every eye in the court with tears. The usual sentence of the law in cases of High Treason was then passed, which is hanging, disemboweling, quartering, and beheading.

Mr. Snowden. — The following infallible remedy for a burn or scald, has been obtained of a gentleman from Germany.
Mix sweet oil, or if that cannot be had, fresh butter, hogs lard, or any such unsalted substance, (the fresher the better) with slacked lime, 'till the composition shall become of the consistence of paste; spread it on a linen cloth, double the cloth and apply it to the wound — it will instantly relieve the patient from all pain. Renew the application once in eight hours for a few days, and the cure will be entirely effected.
N. B. This remedy is worthy to be preserved in every family.
We learn that Mr. King, our Minister at the Court of London, is expected to leave England some time in the month of April, on board of the John Morgan, a fine vessel, for N. York, which has been chartered for his use; so that Mr. King and family may be expected by the middle of June. Phil. pap.
The English ship Lady Nelson, sent to explore the navigation of New Holland, and survey its harbors, shoals, &c. has discovered that that country consists of two islands, this ship having actually sailed through the passage between them, entering on the eastern side a little to the southward of Botany Bay, and coming out on the western side near St. Peter's islands.
The passage varied greatly in width, in some parts being quite narrow, and in others so wide as to be out of sight of land as they sailed along. The country in many parts exhibited marks of great fertility, though the western coast was barren and uninhabited. The English colony at Botany Bay flourishes in a surprising degree. A fertile soil, healthy climate, and habits of industry, have given a spring to the population.
Towns are rising composed of brick edifices, many of them in a high style of elegance, and expensive. Such is the prosperity of the colony, that most of those who went out as convicts choose to remain there after the expiration of their time of banishment. ib.

London Paper.
We once promised to give Holt credit
for all his confessions. An opportunity is before us, and we improve it. In the Bee of last week, the editor declares that the conduct of Washington, in sending Mr. Jay to England, to negotiate, "was approved by every good man." Thus, then, Holt confesses, in plain terms, that there is scarcely a good man in the whole democratic party; for it is well known that the sending of Mr. Jay to England, was pointedly condemned by every democrat who could wag his tongue or clench a goose quill.

DEMOCRATS AND SALARIES.
From the continual blustering our N. Hampshire democrats make about the Governor and Judges salaries, an uninformed man would suppose they were the most meek and economical race of mortals on the globe. But there is an old remark, that over nice pretensions to delicacy, frequently cover a corrupt bosom, so it is with democrats and their economy: Mr. Jefferson, the greatest of them all, actually receives upwards of 2500 dollars more than the great Washington, it being the amount of the house rent paid by the former President, but which he enjoys at the expence of the union; and his secretaries salaries raised above the Washington establishment 13000 dollars. Such is their economy, and by this stale cry they hoped to revolutionize New Hampshire. Portsmouth Cradle.
The Editors of the Recorder are requested to give the following squib a place in their paper, which will oblige their friend
PASQUIN.
A PRESIDENT. "Oh! what a fine thing it is to be a Philosopher!"
YE rulers of nations a minute attend! And learn a new way, to save a kind friend.
If, to seize your estate, he's pleas'd to insist,
Tho' stronger you be, you must not resist.
Two millions or so, do but place in his hand,
'Twill soften his heart, and bring back your land.
But if you should ask, why pay such a fine,
Why resistance at first must mar his design?
Poor fool! this would do an age or two past,
But, in this Age of Reason, you'd surely be cast.
Your method's unknown in Bonaparte's code;
To BEND is the rage, de Paris a la mode;
So, of Reason and Cuth, the lois ne'er repent;
But copy the rule of — a wise PRESIDENT.

A simple Hibernian who was lately brought before a court to be bound over to his good behaviour, was told by the Mayor, that he must find security in 500 dollars for 12 months. "By JASUS," replied the poor fellow, "I'm a bit of a stranger here, and as your worship's worth the money, and a good man and well known, I hope the court will have no objection to you, for they know nothing at all, at all, of Pat."

A New and Practical Work.
A PROPOSAL, By William T. Birch, & Abraham Small, of the City of Philadelphia, FOR PUBLISHING IN VOLUMES, BY SUBSCRIPTION, THAT USEFUL AND POPULAR WORK, THE Domestic Encyclopædia, OR, A DICTIONARY OF FACTS, AND USEFUL KNOWLEDGE:
COMPREHENDING A concise view of the latest discoveries, inventions, and improvements, chiefly applicable to rural and domestic eco- nomy.
TOGETHER WITH Descriptions of the most interesting ob- jects of nature and art; the history of men and animals, in a state of health or disease; and practical hints respecting the arts and manufactures, both fami- liar and commercial. Illustrated with numerous Engravings and Cuts.
By A. F. M. WILLICH, A. M. Author of the Lectures on Diet and Regi- men, &c. &c. FIRST AMERICAN EDITION, With additions, applicable to the present situation of the U. States, By JAMES MEASE, M. D. Fellow of the American Philosophical So- ciety, And Corresponding Member of the Literary and Phil. Soc. at Manchester.
From the above general con- tent of the work, it will be easily conceived that the nature of the Domestic Encyclopædia is peculiarly adapted to the present wants of the United States. Perhaps it contains a greater number of useful facts than have ever appeared in the compass of four moderate volumes. No pains, trouble, or expense appear to have been spared to render this economical dictionary as complete as the present advancement of agricul- ture, gardening, of the familiar arts and manu- factures, as well as the imperfect state of medi- cal science, would respectively admit. It in- cludes almost every object more or less connect- ed with rural, domestic, and animal economy. Hence the reader will find numerous experiments related, many hundreds of which have not before been published in the English language.
With regard to the additions, the editor will observe, that no exertions shall be wanting on his part, to render them as useful as possible to the people of this country. The diseases com- monly prevalent therein, with the most approv- ed methods of prevention and cure, shall be parti- cularly detailed. An account shall be given of all the discoveries which have been made in the United States; and many Machines for dimi- nishing labour, which are peculiar thereto, shall be described, and illustrated in Plates. In short, every useful fact in rural and domestic eco- nomy, omitted by Dr. Willich, and which may be known to the editor, shall be inserted; and in order to take advantage of progressing improvements, arrangements have been made to have all the periodical works on the above sub- jects, forwarded as soon as published in England or France.
The Publishers have but little to add for them- selves; knowing, that professions generally are, and perhaps, ought to be, in a great measure, unavailing, they refer the Public to the books they have already published. They have given to the world two editions of Dr. Kuffel's Mod- ern Europe , within the last three years; the manner, therefore, in which they execute their undertakings, can be ascertained. In the pre- sent work, if they do not advance much, they pledge themselves not to degenerate. It shall be printed in the first style of uniformity and taste. The Paper shall be superior; and the Engravings at least equal to those in the London copy.
Conditions.
I. It shall be printed in five handsome octavo volumes. One volume shall be de- livered every three months. Price to sub- scribers, two dollars and fifty cents per volume, in boards, payable on delivery.
II. The first volume shall appear on the first of April, 1803, and a volume regu- larly every three months afterwards.
III. It may be had in one delivery when finished, at twelve dollars and fifty cents, in boards, or fifteen dollars well bound, payable on the delivery of the books. It will, however, be only obtained at these prices, by those who give the publishers their names during the process of the work to take it when finished.
N. B. The public will please to take notice, that the amount in price of this improved and extended work, is not higher than the London work in four volumes.
Subscriptions to the above work will be received by Samuel Bishop and by James Kennedy, Sen. Alexandria.

DR. FENDALL, OPERATOR UPON TEETH, Is just arrived in Alexandria, and may be seen and consulted at Mr. Gadsby's tavern at any time. As the Doctor's continuance in town is uncertain, the soon- er applications are made to him the better, as he is anxious to return to his residence, from which place he has been so long ab- sent.
Dr. Fendall cures the scurvy in the gums, be it ever so inveterate, in a short time; loosens loose teeth, by making the gums grow firm up to them; renders teeth white and beautiful; prevents their decay; keeps such as are so from becom- ing worse, even to old age; fills up those that are hollow with gold or lead, which will not only render them useful, but pre- vents their aching and further decay; extracts teeth and stumps; make and fixes artificial teeth.
His Columbian Antiscorbutic Denti- frice for preserving the teeth, gums, sockers, &c. and superior he thinks both in elegance and efficacy to any other, is still sold by the Doctor.
