PHYSIC, SURGERY, MIDWIFERY, &c.
THE Subscriber takes this method of informing the inhabitants of Alexandria and its neighbourhood, that he has just fixed himself as a resident amongst them for the purpose of becoming a Practitioner in MEDICINE, SURGERY, in all its Branches, MIDWIFERY and the Diseases of the TEETH; he trusts that six years unremitting attention, in the most approved Schools of Europe, to the different divisions of Science which compose his profession, will enable him to discharge its duties in a manner that shall be consistent with the safety and welfare of the Patient, as well as the reputation and dignity of the Profession itself; he hopes also that he will be found to practice on fully as reasonable terms as any reputable Practitioner can afford to do. There is one circumstance to which he could wish to be permitted the liberty of asking attention, it is the Vaccine Inoculation, the greatest discovery, perhaps, that has ever been made in Medicine. Medical Science has justly been complained of, as making slow progress; as travelling in a dull, halting gait; but, relative to Vaccine Inoculation, she has lately made a rapid, a gigantic stride of improvement, one that tends to expunge from the catalogue of Diseases the most odious and calamitous that ever afflicted man, the Small-Pox. This then being the character of the discovery, the Subscriber trusts he may be believed when he asserts, that the full and complete diffusion of its benefits is what most sincerely interests him; even though wholly abstracted from any considerations of pecuniary advantage; he has been informed, that medical characters in this place, of much skill and benevolent intention, have found impediments to the success of the Vaccine Inoculation, and that such impediments, though they seem somewhat peculiar to this country, have considerably limited the sphere of its usefulness. To investigate and remove the causes of those impediments will be an object of his most unceasing attention, and should there be any persons in this town or its vicinity, who would wish to participate in the benefits of the discovery, but may feel themselves restrained by pecuniary motives, he will innoculate and carry them through the disease free from all expense whatever. He has been familiarly acquainted with it in Europe, and possesses instructions given to him by the author of the discovery himself, whereby it may be most certainly and truly communicated, and as prudently and safely managed; these are circumstances too, of no small importance, as upon the communication of the true Vaccine Disease, and the prudent management of it depends the ample and wide extended blessing, which, under such circumstances, it is fully capable of conferring on the human species; for, if the false disease be communicated instead of the true, though only in a few instances, and the true disease not properly managed, it will involve the merits of the remedy in doubt and uncertainty, and ultimately bring it into total disrepute and uselessness. The Subscriber may be seen, by applying at his Shop, Prince Street, nearly opposite Dr. Dick's, or at his lodgings, at Mrs. Griffith's, King Street.

FROM THE NEW YORK EVENING POST.
TO THE PEOPLE OF THE UNITED STATES.
Since my address, on the subject of the Report of the Committee of Investigation, was committed to the press, I have discovered that after the rising of Congress, a second edition of that Report, with a number of documents annexed, was printed by order of the house of Representatives and distributed to the members of Congress.—This fact, which has but lately come to my knowledge, appears to require from me a few observations, in addition to my former address.
The accounts open in the books of the Treasury appear in the statement which was transmitted to the Committee, under a new arrangement. Under the title "Domestic expenditures, of a miscellaneous civil nature," are included a variety of expenditures, which have hitherto been referred to distinct heads in the public printed accounts; among these are advances for the payment of military pensions, light houses, the mint establishment, and a loan to the city of Washington; also other advances, in consequence of special acts of Congress.
Some of the observations in my address, with reference to the accounts of the civil list, were made upon a presumption, that the ancient arrangement of the accounts had been continued. I do not mean to suggest that the new arrangement is an improper one, and I mention the fact, merely to prevent a misunderstanding of my observations. I, however, perceive no cause to retract the opinion, that the public will suffer no loss whatever in the payment of the compensation and salaries of the members of the legislative, Executive, and Judicial departments of every grade, from the establishment of the Government; and I am convinced, that a few thousand dollars will cover every loss, on a settlement of the accounts of the marshals, and most probably also, all the accounts comprehended under the new head, entitled, "Domestic expenditures, of a miscellaneous civil nature."
The committee reported the expenditures for the Navy Department, from the establishment of the Department in 1798, to the 31st of March, 1801, inclusively of the sum paid by the Treasury to individuals, as amounting to 9,981,313 dollars and 73 cents. An examination of the documents recently published, enables me to state, that this sum comprises the expenditures described by the committee to the 1st of January, 1802, nearly ten months after the commencement of the present administration. I was mistaken in considering the Committee as having reported the sum before mentioned, as comprising the payment made at the Treasury. It is a fact, that only a part of the payments made to individuals at the Treasury was included.—The sum stated by the committee is however, erroneous, as it appears from the documents annexed to their report, that including all the advances made to individuals at the Treasury, and including the stock issued in payment of the vessels built by the contributions of the merchants, the expenditures for the navy Department to the 31st of March, 1801, amounted to no more than 9,643,455 dollars and 3 cents—there has, consequently, been an overcharge of at least 337,000 dollars.
The amount represented by the committee as "unaccounted for or unsettled" in the Navy Department appears to consist of balances on the books of the Accountant on the 1st of January 1802, being 4,170,651 dollars and 75 cents. The accounts to January 1802, include expenditures under the present administration exceeding the sum of 1,250,000 dollars. I am not able to ascertain the proportion of this sum, which remained unaccounted for, when the Report was made, but it must have been considerable.
In the enumeration of the principal naval agencies, that for New-York was omitted by mistake in the publication of my address, or by an error in the original copy. I request that my observations, in respect to the Naval Agents, may be considered as intended to include the agent for New-York.
The last publication of the Report, ought certainly to have comprised all the documents referred to by the Committee. I perceive, however, that the letter of Mr. Gallatin, Secretary of the Treasury, dated March 2d. 1802, and the statements immediately connected with that letter, have been omitted. As this letter and some of the documents, are essentially necessary, to assist the public in forming cor-
rect opinions, on the subject of the report, it appears reasonable to expect an explanation of the causes, which have occasioned this omission.

From the (New-York) COMMERCIAL ADVERTISER. SOLOQUY
Of a DUELIST, who had just killed his opponent.
SCENE—His chamber at midnight, the moon faintly shining in at one of his windows.
"Merciful God! to what a situation have I reduced myself by one inconsiderate act! But a few days have elapsed since my mind was composed, and at peace with Heaven and with man; now, to what a melancholy state am I brought. My heart reproaches me, and forever will reproach me, for listening to the call of false honor, and taking the life of one who was not my enemy, and whom I had injured and insulted. Why had I not the resolution to despise the opinion of that part of the world who consider this barbarous custom as a proof of bravery? Alas, why did I not, like a man and a christian, resolve to forgive the injury I supposed done to myself? With what self congratulation would I ever after have looked back on this act of magnanimity! But now, by listening to the voice of passion, I have drawn on myself evils that will corrode my heart to the end of life, already the devils, from the infernal world, have seized on my bosom and filled it with horrors. From above, no cheering ray of consolation dawns on my guilty soul. To Heaven I cannot raise a prayer, for Heaven abhors the murderer. From the serious and virtuous part of society I can obtain no relief; there every look seems to reproach me. As I walk the streets, me thinks the finger of detestation is pointed at me. In the sidelong glances and downcast looks of my old acquaintance, I think I read repugnance and reproach. Within my own heart I have still less satisfaction—I have become my own most deadly foe. In the solemn hour of night, when the eyes of the rest of society are sealed in slumber, mine are kept open by remorse and agony. Oh, that I could flee from myself! Oh, that I had never been born—or that I had been made a beast or a reptile, rather than a rational, an immortal being. Oh, that I could but believe that Death was an 'eternal sleep'—but there is a principle within me that instructs me I shall never die—The soul may indeed cover this body, but my soul must live for ever, an example of the justice of that God, who has declared that he will punish the guilty."
Alas! in how mild a light do the gay and fashionable part of the world regard this crime! Little do they think of the awful event which hurries a frail offending creature into the presence of his God, all covered with offences, unrepented of—Little do they feel for the agony of the widowed wife—the helplessness of orphan children, which this cruel, this execrable practice so often occasions. Could they justly view this picture, they would not add their sanction to the custom, but would hiss from society the man who so daringly violated the laws of his country, of humanity and his God.
Let the public sentiment once decisively frown on this relic of barbarism, and it would cease—but while the name of coward is attached to the person who shuns a duel—and while to decline a personal combat is reckoned a disgrace, so long will this murderous practice continue, in defiance of the laws of Heaven and of Society.
NEW-YORK, October 21.
The fast sailing ship Jupiter, captain Law, arrived at this port last evening in 42 days from the Downs. She left London on the 3d of September; to the evening of which day, inclusive, Captain Law has obligingly furnished us with London papers and Lloyd's Lists to the first. Of the intelligence contained in the London papers, the following is a brief outline; the extracts from Lloyd's Lists will be found amongst our Marine Articles.
LONDON, August 31.
On Friday last a Dutch fleet of 17 sail of merchantmen, two frigates, and a cor-
vette, arrived at Torbay with Dutch settlers for Surinam and Demerara. The Dutch are using the utmost expedition in sending out civil and military officers to take possession of all the settlements restored to them by the Treaty of Peace.
The Duke of Mecklenburgh, it is stated, is about to purchase the sovereignty of the town of Weimar from Sweden, for a million of Hamburgh bank dollars.
Of the determination of Government to prosecute L'Ambigu, which we noticed yesterday, in consequence of the libels supposed to be contained in it against the person and authority of the First Consul, there is no doubt. Mr. Peitier, the Editor, has, however, signified his intention of suppressing the publication, and it is imagined that the French Minister will intertere to prevent the Attorney General from proceeding with the prosecution.
September 1.
We yesterday received Paris journals to the 28th. Several of the Journals contain accounts from Ratisbon, which, if true, are of considerable importance. If they be true, indeed, it is evident that the Emperor of Germany has not been consulted in the System of Indemnities, so "dissatisfied" recommended by France and Russia. We have already mentioned that the Austrian Commander would not permit the Bavarian troops to take possession of Passau, and its district, assigned to the Elector by the proposed indemnities. A Convention agreed upon by the Commanders to wait for orders from their respective Courts, was not ratified by the Elector of Bavaria, and in consequence of the latter persisting in his intention to take possession of the territories in question, and causing troops to advance, the Austrians have occupied the Fortress and Bishopricks of Passau on both sides of the Inn, including what had been allotted to the Elector of Bavaria, as well as that to the Grand Duke of Tuscany.
The Elector of Bavaria, it is evident, durst not thus commit himself in a contest with Austria, unless on the certainty of being supported. Whether, indeed, the firmness of the Emperor may not induce the "dissatisfied" Co-Partitioners to modify the scheme to his advantage, is a question which we do not venture to decide. The conduct of the Emperor, it is obvious, is dictated more by a general disapprobation of the scheme of Indemnities, than by the immediate arrangement regarding the Elector of Bavaria. The dispute, therefore, on this point, brings the whole to issue.
MORN. CHRON.
A Dutch Mail arrived on Monday evening, and another yesterday morning, September 5.
The intelligence by this conveyance is not very interesting. The accounts from Ratisbon are of the 16th of August, at which time the Plan of indemnities had not been presented to the Diet: but Citizen Bacher, the French Envoy there, had received, on the 13th, the Senatus Consultum, containing the new Regulations for the Constitution, which he had communicated to the Diet by delivering a printed copy of the Moniteur. The same dispatches noticed to him, that though the First Consul was extremely well satisfied with the whole of his preceding conduct, the French Government had appointed Citizen Laforest, the Envoy at Munich, to be Envoy Extraordinary at Ratisbon, and himself to remain there with the title of Resident, & assist him with his knowledge and experience.
The same accounts say—"for these five days past Austrian and Batavian troops have been posted opposite each other on the two Banks of the Inn. They have not, however, as yet advanced beyond their respective territories, and when they receive orders to march, they are to give each other twelve hours notice. Another corps of 25,000 men is likewise expected shortly on the Inn."
Letters from the Hague, of the 22d of August, state, that the Amnesty had been published there in a Proclamation, dated the 16th of August. The Emigrants who were in English pay, in the Isle of Wight, have been armed, and embarked for North Holland. Previous to their arrival every precaution had been taken at the different ports to prevent any disturbance.
The same letters say, that 40,000 French troops will be assembled on the Rhine, as well to make an impression on the Diet of Ratisbon, and hasten its decisions on the plan of indemnities, as to be ready to go through their manoeuvres when the First Consul makes his visit to Belgium and the Rhine.

The funds yesterday experienced a de- pression. Omnium opened at 9 3-4, and closed at 10 1-3d discount. Consols open- ed at 68, and closed at 67 3/4. Betts have been made, that Omnium will sink to 15 per cent. discount before Christmas. It is to be hoped, however, that something essential will be done to counteract the im- pending danger of the holders of Omnium. The speedy departure of General And- reossi for London, in the quality of Am- bassador to our court, is announced in the Journal des Defenours,
September 3.
Two mails arrived this morning from Hamburg, and one from Holland.
The letters by the Dutch mail assert that Austria will not relinquish any of the districts belonging to Bavaria on the right bank of the Inn. The retention or aban- donment of those districts does not, how- ever, depend upon the cabinet of Vienna. A hint from Russia and France will be suf- ficient to clear both banks of the Inn, and make the Austrian government recall every battalion from the Bavarian frontier.
Preparations are making for the evacua- tion of the Dutch territories by the French troops. The ammunition and artillery have already been sent to the Belgic de- partments. The troops will begin their march the end of this month.
Letters from Bucharest state, that, security and tranquility are completely restored to that country. The corps which Passiwan Ogliou marched towards the right bank of the Danube has been repulsed with loss, by the troops sent by the Port to oppose him in that direction. Most of the Boyards or Wallachian Noblemen have returned to Bucharest, where the new prince now is.
The Emperor of Russia, since his re- turn from Memel, has devoted himself very much to state affairs, in which he is occupied for the greater part of every day. He goes very seldom to the parade, which was formerly his principal amuse- ment.
The Legislative Body of the Italian Republic has fixed the peace establishment of the army at 60,000 men. The army is to be recruited by means of a military conscriptio, comprehending every man in the nation from twenty to twenty-five years of age.
Orders have been issued for the march- ing of a large body of French troops to the Rhine. They will be cantoned along the left bank. Their numbers will be about 30,000.
PRICE OF STOCKS this day at 12 o'clock, 3 per cent. Cons. 67 3/4 5/8. — Ditto, for Acc. 68 67 3/4 68 3/4. 3 per Cent. Red. fur.—Omnium 9 3/4 3/4 dis.
The French funds continue to droop, the five per cents. were on the 28th ult. at 51 1/2. The decline of the Republican funds is, we apprehend, to be chiefly at- tributed to the financial embarrassments of the government. It is reported, that such have been the expences of the expedi- tions to take possession of the ceded islands, the ordinary demands of large military establishments, and the want of an Admi- nistration little distinguished for economy, that great arrears have been incurred. To alleviate the distress, and to procure tem- porary aid, it is said to be in contempla- tion to raise a loan. In a country where, as at present in France, there is so little confidence, money is scarce and dear, such a measure must fall heavy on the money market. Money now bears an enormous interest in France. The best Bankers' paper is at 5 per cent. interior classes from that to 15.
The Dutch funds continue steady.
NEW YORK, October 23.
A gentleman of this city, has put into our hands a letter from Cape Francois, dated the 15th Sept. It mentions, that no part of the cargo of a vessel just arrived from New York, would clear the expences; lumber would not fetch the first cost. Vessels were continually arriving from every part of America, of which a great number leave the place and proceed to ports to the leeward. Lumber has be- come prohibited, on account of the great quantity arrived there; as also dry goods in foreign bottoms in a few days.
Another letter, dated the 27th Sept. from a respectable mercantile house in Cape Francois, states, that the Cape was disturbed by a new rebellion of negroes; and all kinds of business at stand, except building houses, which was going on ve- ry briskly. Flour was from 10 to 12 dollars, beef 12, pork 20 to 22; hogs- lard 30s. butter 20 to 25s. All kinds of dry goods prohibited. Coffee, molaf-
ses, rum and tafia and dying woods (ex- cept gayac) are permitted for exportation; the duty on coffee is 16 francs 66 cen- times, equal to 307 cents of dollar a per quintal. Coffee was in demand, and ve- ry scarce, from 20 to 22s.
In a Lisbon paper of the 10th Sept. re- at this office by the Eliza, it is mentioned that a frigate belonging to the Emperor of Morocco arrived at Lisbon on the 6th of September from Larache, in 12 days passage.

Captain H. informs that the French took possession of Martinique on the 14th of last month—that the government imme- diately laid a heavy duty on all Amer- ican imports, and 7 1/2 per cent. on all ex- ports, which had given great discontent to the inhabitants—that in consequence of the low state of the funds it was daily ex- pected that additional duties would be laid.
Captain H. left at Martinique upwards of 30 sail of American vessels.
Mr. Achilles Crutchfield, of this place passenger in the Atlantic, died at sea on the 10th inst.—a young gentleman much esteemed by his acquaintance.

Extract of a letter from a gentleman in Guernsey to his friend in Peterburgh, Vir.
"From the time we left Cape Henry, until we reached the English channel, there was not five days fair wind, con- sequently had a tedious passage of 58 days. We were driven a long way out of our course to the southward by a severe gale. Some days afterwards, we saw a wreck that had been a brig rigged, her mast gone a little above the deck; on the remains of the fore-mast was a small sail rigged as a fore-sail, and a piece of canvas attached to the stump of the main-mast—the ves-
sel full of water—Our mate and some of the hands went to her in a boat, but in attempting to board her to leeward, they found so disagreeable a stench, they desis- ted, and returned on board. Her name was the federal George of Duxbury."

Account's from Wilmington, (Del.) re- present an alarming increase of the Yellow fever. The Mirror, a paper of that place, is suspended in consequence.
It is now reduced to a certainty, that Tom Paine has obtained a passage on board the London Packet bound to Baltimore. An American gentleman in Paris had a- greed for a passage in the same vessel. On coming to Havre, however, and finding who was to be his associate, he relinquin- ed the ship, and returned to Paris!

EXTRACTS
From "Principles of Nature," published by Eliza Palmer, president of the The- etical Society in New York—No 2.
Disagreeable as the task is, I proceed to give farther extracts from a work publish- ed, with his name, by the CHIEF of a de- mocratic and deistical club.
"What was the conduct of this person, called Jesus Christ? Was it like the con- duct of a deity, or like that of an ignorant uninformed man? Was it the conduct of divine wisdom, or that of imbecility and distrustful apprehension? If this man, Je- sus Christ, had really entered into a ciali- tion with the Creator of the world, for the accomplishment of important purposes relative to the happiness of the human race," &c. "Are we not bound to sup- pose that a plan of operation formed in the cabinet of eternal wisdom, must have an- swered all the purposes which that wisdom was calculated to produce? Instead of this, how wretchedly are we disappoint- ed? Vice is not destroyed, and the fears of future damnation are encreased. Three infinite goals have labored in vain, and their united efforts have not been able to rescue mankind from endless torments." p. 46. 47 48.
"Let Adam, therefore, and his partner Eve together with the Devil and his snakes attend to their own concerns, and if they have fallen into difficulties by their own folly and vices, let them extricate them- selves as well as they are able.—p. 53. 54."
"He must believe in a Book which contains, systematically considered, nei- ther truth nor morality, neither purity of sentiment nor principle; neither propriety of arrangement, nor progression of human improvement; erroneous in all its primary establishments and vindictive in all its con- sequences—unjust in its origin and male- volent in all its subsequent movements; incorrect in its relations, and impure in its intentions; destructive to science, an insult to morality and essentially inju- rious to human felicity. This then is Christian faith" p. 66.
Such is the abuse, and much more, as shall be seen hereafter, which the preach- er to a society styling themselves re- publicans, pours upon the Bible which christians esteem as the word of life, and from which they derive all their consol- ation in this world, and for the world to come. The labours of infidels abroad and of late years, in this country and the
arts which they have practiced, would be incredible, had we not the most irrefisti- ble evidence. Christians have been slow of heart to believe ; but the time is come when their eyes will be opened, and they will tremble at the pit which yawned to receive them.

HAVRE DE GRACE, Aug. 21.
Since the arrete of July 22, trade is on a surer and more regular footing. The duties established on colonial commodities in foreign vessels, and from any other place than our colonies, has put an end to the great number of foreigners who filled up our stores and drew out our cash. Trade is become more national, and vessels are to be cleared out for our colonies, that will supply the wants of our consumption, and will enable us soon to supply, as for- merly, the north and south of Europe, with an immense overplus.
The consequence of the new regulations has been an increase in the price of colonial commodities, particularly of sugars and coffee; this increase would have been quicker, had it not been stop't by restraint, and the scarcity of cash. Brown sugar that fell to about ten dollars, has been raised this month to more than twelve; and it is thought it will be higher. It is certain that the first 6 months, but a little quan- tity of sugar can be sent from St. Dom- go. and the duties of two crowns and half per cwt. on brown sugar, and 5 doll. and 40 cents on superior quality, is a heavy, that it is next to impossible that it should be cheaper. Between 8 and 900 hhds. were sold last month.
Coffee sells very fast, and the price has been raised from 20 to 24 cents.
Much tobacco was likewise sold from 16 dollars and a half to 17.
Pepper is sold very fast at 27 and 30 cents per lb.
Amer. pot ash is bought at 7 dols 75 cts

TRACT OF LAND,
Lying on both sides of Goose Creek, in this County, and running from thence to the said town; containing about five thousand acres, most of which has been laid off in lots, and since leased for lives or a term of years; from the peculiarly eligible situation of this land, and its great fitness for the improving state of agriculture that is taking place in this neighbourhood, it is hoped that it will be an object worth the attention of those who wish to vest their money in landed property; one third of the purchase money will be required on the day of sale, the remaining two thirds to be paid by two annual installments; six per cents of the Stock of the U.

The Executors of the late Gen. Geo. Washington, offer for sale, the following TRACTS OF LAND, viz.
A tract in Loudoun county on Difficult Run, containing 300 acres. The soil well adapted for farming and a considerable proportion of it might easily be improved into meadow. There is a valuable mill-seat on the premises. It lies on the great road from the City of Washington, Alexandria and George Town to Leesburg and Winchester, nineteen miles from Alexandria, less from the City and George Town and not more than three from the Great Falls of Potomac.
One tract containing 2,481 acres lying in the counties of Loudoun and Fauquier, called Ashby's Bent. The soil is that which is said to be most favorable to Planter of Paris, well watered by several never failing streams issuing from the mountain—part of this land is cleared and tenanted for lives.
One tract lying part in each of the above counties, containing 885 acres—Chatten's run passes through this tract and gives several valuable mill-seats. The soil is similar to the above tract and equally favorable to Planter of Paris.
A tract on the South Fork of Bullskin, containing 1600 acres—One also, Head of Evans's Mill, containing 453 acres, and one on Wormley's line, containing 183 acres. These several tracts are in Jefferson (late Berkeley county)—the soil very similar in quality, and particularly adapted to the culture of Tobacco, Hemp, Wheat and Indian Corn, situated twelve miles from Harper's Ferry.
One tract containing 571 acres in Frederick county, this land is in the vicinity of the last mentioned tracts and equally valuable.
One tract in Hampshire county containing 240 acres—this tract, though small is extremely valuable. It lies on Potomac river about 12 miles above the town of Bath (or Warm Springs) and is in the shape of a horse-shoe, the river running almost round it; two hundred acres of it are rich low grounds, with a great abundance of the largest Walnut and other trees, which with the produce of the soil, might (by means of the improved navigation of the Potomac) be brought to a shipping port with more ease and at a smaller expense, than that which is transported only 30 miles by land.
One third part of 1119 acres on Nansemond county near Suffolk, lying on the road from Suffolk to Norfolk and in Nansemond river—this land is considered extremely valuable by those who are acquainted with it.
One tract in Charles county, Maryland, containing 600 acres—it is very level and lies near the river Potomac.
One tract in Montgomery county, Maryland, containing 519 acres—This land lies about 30 miles above the City of Washington, not far from Keptoc-tan and is good farming land.
One tract in Pennsylvania, containing 234 acres—This land affords an exceeding good stand on Braddock's road from Fort Cumberland to Pittsburg, and a large quantity of natural meadow fit for the scythe. It is distinguished by the appellation of the Great Meadows, where the first action with the French, in the year 1754, was fought.
One other tract on the Mohawk river, State of New-York, containing 1000 acres.
In North West Territory, Three tracts lying on Little Miami, containing 3051 acres.
