BATTLE OF MARENGO.
FROM DE CROISBOUIL'S REVOLUTIONARY ANNALS.
Bonaparte had performed in less than one month what he had promised to effect in two. On the 2nd day of June, he entered Milan, caused the Te deum of victory to be sung in the churches of that city, and re-organized the Cisalpine Republic. The Lombards were struck with amazement; the news of his arrival in Italy had reached them but twenty-four hours before. The correspondence of the Austrian general, seized at Pavia, had apprized the first consul of the melancholy fate of Genoa, surrendered by Massena to general Ott. The order to raise the siege, which the court of Vienna had issued, arrived three hours after the commencement of the negotiation. It was concluded on the 4th of May. Massena would not suffer this agreement to be drawn up under the name of capitulation . Part of his small army returned to France through Nice; English vessels conveyed the rest to Antibes. They had stipulated the permission to enter the field again immediately upon their arrival.
How great was the surprise of Mons. De Melas! An army, fifty thousand strong, composed of intrepid veterans, and youthful warriors glowing with enthusiastic ardor for glory, commanded by chiefs still in the prime of life, but who, during eight years of uninterrupted warfare had acquired the maturity and experience of the most advanced age; an army whose existence he had deemed chimerical, having now triumphed, at first over nature, and then, in a hundred battles, over a gallant foe, suddenly stares him in the face; astonishes him by its presence in the very centre of his conquests; cuts off all his communications; captures all his artillery, all his stores; is, under his eyes, abundantly subsisted at the expence of his sovereign; presses him on all sides; closely invests him and his numerous army amid the maritime Alps; and, for a moment, reduced him nearly to the same situation under which Messena laboured a month before. What instability in human affairs! This remark is frequently repeated, because instances of mutability frequently occur. But, on the present occasion, what imprudence! what glaring deficiency of foresight! how blind that self-conceit which refused to see the merits of its opponents! how impolitic that jealousy which supposed them utterly destitute of talents! Yet, could the grey-headed chiefs of the Austrian army so soon forget the prowess, the skill, of those heroes who had successively opposed and wearied each of them? Had not these heroes forcibly evinced that their existence and activity were far from being ideal? France had displayed all her energies, directed the whole weight of her power against Austria; dazzled by a few fugitive successes that blazed and died away like so many meteors, the latter disassembled, for a moment, to herself the resources of France, and the abilities of her new rulers; hence those rash doubts which produced the most injurious prejudices, the most fatal mistakes: in this unguarded hour of contemptuous supineness, Austria was irrecoverably crushed by a single blow.
Suchet, whose intrepidity had been chained for a while by so many hostile legions, was, at length, advancing towards Nice, and into Piedmont: The troops left by general Melas in the maritime Alps dispersed at his approach, or fell by his victorious sword.
The God of battles reserved to Berthier the satisfaction of obtaining in person a signal and complete victory. The remembrance of this memorable action will not be obliterated by the glorious engagement which, four days after, decided the fate of Italy, and promised peace to France. At the head of 20,000 men, general Ott had proceeded along the Po, with a view to protect the banks of that river, which had been for two weeks past the theatre of so many conspicuous achievements. Berthier engages him near Montebello: The Austrians fought with desperate valour; the French, with inferior numbers, displayed a courage, made exertions, almost exceeding belief. Casteggio, a neighbouring village, is taken and retaken at different times. General Victor sees all his attacks crowned with success. General Watrin calls forth all the energies, unfolds all the talents, of which he is possessed. Berthier charges the enemy with his wonted intrepidity; the whole army catches his enthusiastic ardour, and the day is won. Three thousand Austrians are either killed or wounded, and six thousand made prisoners. One general is slain; others receive dangerous
wounds. Such was the ultimate and most illustrious prelude to the battle of Marengo.
All the energies imparted to human beings in a most eminent degree, are, in this heroic engagement, conspicuously exerted, and wonderfully displayed. The prize contended for is no less than an empire; its possession hangs on the fate of the day, and it is disputed by two gallant chiefs, each of whom rises superior to man. A hoary warrior boldly conceives the design of forcing his way through an army of Frenchmen: On that single occasion, he hopes to atone for every former error. On the other hand, a young hero, exulting beneath a load of glory hitherto undiminished, is nobly and resolutely bent on transmitting it entire to future ages. To the haughty ruler of Austria, Melas has solemnly pledged his word to protect and save the fairest portion of his domain, his Italian states. Upon his blazing sword, Bonaparte has sworn that victory should not prove treacherous to his army in the very centre of the most brilliant conquests of France. The oath was decisive. On the 14th day of June, the two armies, eager for battle, stand forth in formidable array: a narrow space now separates them, and adds new terrors to their menacing attitude. The tremendous cry which announces and precedes the havoc of war has already been heard. Elate in the superiority of their numbers, the Austrians pass the Bormida, on three different bridges, advance with majestic intrepidity, and commence the battle of Marengo. The front of that terrific army resembled the crater of a volcano; it sent forth an incessant and irresistible fire. A hundred pieces of heavy ordnance thundering upon the centre, the right, and the left of the French army, mowed down heroes in every rank. Four times, with incredible valor, the French infantry charges the hostile columns; four times it is repulsed. On either side, the cavalry, in twelve murderous attacks, meets with various and doubtful success. Sixty pieces of cannon are taken and retaken on different points, and at different intervals. At length, all the French battalions are thrown into disorder, and broken; at this critical juncture, their native courage with difficulty supports them. Overwhelmed by superior numbers, a retreat becomes unavoidable. Then, indeed, carnage displays all its horrors. The plain is strewed with dead and dying, and with innumerable fragments of shattered arms. Lacerated, agonizing warriors bleed along every road, amid lamentable ruins, and melancholy monuments of devastation. Invigorated by the smiles of victory, Melas resumes his pristine ardor; exultation beams in his eyes; he triumphs over the courage of the French. Bonaparte and Berthier, to whom the genius of France had revealed the secret of her destinies, calm amid the greatest dangers, and bravely them all alike, flew to the centre of their yielding battalions, rallied their broken and dispersed ranks, strengthened their columns in more favorable situations. The consular guards advance in their turn, and, like a wall of granite, cover the right wing. Three successive attacks make no impression on this inexpugnable bulwark. This legion of heroes arrests Melas in his career of success. Already their invincible resistance had given the army time to rally in the rear of the corps of reserve. Desaix, the commander of that body, Desaix, the pupil of glory, and the favorite of Mars, impatiently waited for the signal to commence an engagement which was ultimately to decide the fate of the day.
The front of the army opens on a sudden, and the French artillery immediately silences the murderous thunder of the enemy. Melas makes new efforts to ensure his triumph. The presence of the First Consul, of General Berthier, and the intrepidity of Desaix, operate a rapid and wonderful change. Every individual acts as if his were the task to strike the decisive blow; all perform prodigies. Each battalion is equal to any army, each soldier to a battalion. Every Austrian is a Melas every Frenchman a Bonaparte. Desaix receives a mortal wound; he dies, lamenting, to have done too little to deserve immortality. Alas! he did not know that his death ensured to him that immortality after which he sighed! Posterity has seized on his fame. Victory was the noble inheritance which the expiring hero bequeathed to his country. In vain do the Austrians strain every nerve to stem this new unexpected torrent. Young Kellerman, at the head of eight thousand horse, impetuously rushes into the thickest of their legions. Their ranks are immediately broken. Myriads fall, or surrender. Melas yields with honor; and, in some measure, glory attends his defeat. This magnanimous chief, grown
old in the service of his Prince, has fought during a whole day against the choice of the youthful warriors of France, and for nine hours, he has been victorious. His name is inscribed in the annals of fame. This defeat, which completes the catalogue of his rapid disasters, wrests from him almost the whole of Lombardy. He proposes an armistice, which Bonaparte readily grants. The cession of Piedmont, and of the Genoese territory, purchases for the routed army a free & undisturbed passage into the country of Mantua and Tuscany. Such was the invaluable fruit of this unparalleled campaign of 20 days. When compared with it, the expedition of Suwarow loses its boasted splendor. The latter endured nine months, yet no decisive success crowned its operations. The Russian force too, were far superior to those of the French, who entered the field under an absolute want of the necessary supplies. Bonaparte, encircled with beams of glory, triumphantly returns to Paris: he offers to exulting France his brilliant laurels, and invites the Emperor to exchange them for the olive of peace.
The following is a translation of the most interesting parts of an ordinance of the state of the Batavian republic, dated Jan. 10, establishing regulations to guard against the introduction of contagious diseases.
The council of state of the Batavian republic makes known,
That the legislative body of the Batavian republic, having approved this proposition made by the council of state, have decreed the following regulations in order to protect the country from the introduction of infectious diseases.
ART. I.
All vessels coming from a place attacked by a contagious disease, having on board papers which prove their destination to be for this country, shall not be admitted into any of the ports of the republic; but on the contrary shall be ordered to depart. At the same time all pilots are forbid under the pain of death, to bring in any vessel until they have duly interrogated the captains, & received a positive assurance that they have not sailed from any infected port, the said pilots are charged to inform vessels, that they will not be received in any of the seaports, and in case any vessels may be forced by bad weather, or other unavoidable circumstances, to enter into any of our harbours, they shall depart as soon as possible, and if not willing they must be compelled to depart; during the time they necessarily remain, no one shall come on shore or go on board, under pain of death; nor shall any merchandise be discharged under like punishment and the destruction of such effects.
ART. II.
Vessels sailing from infected places and bound to this country shall not, except in cases of bad weather or considerable damage, enter into any other harbor than that of George , which is open for such as are destined to the Meuse, the Texel, or the Vlie for such as are bound to Amsterdam, la Westfrise, le Quarter, du Nord, la Frise and Groningu; and Flisengue for those going to Zealand, on pain of confiscation of the vessel, or discretionary punishment of the captain or pilot, which punishment shall be according to the exigence of the case; pilots are to make this known to the above said vessels.
ART. III.
Vessels having entered any of the above mentioned harbors, must remain there until they have performed quarantine; they shall not leave their stations under pain of confiscation of the vessel, and the death of the captain, pilots, and others of the crew who shall contravene the present article; and during this interval no persons or effects shall be brought from, or carried on board, under pain of the same punishment.
ART. IV.
On the arrival of vessels at the place of quarantine, the captain or pilots shall send to the proper officer of the place a statement of their cargo, with all inform shall appertaining thereto; a printed table shall be delivered to the captain making proper enquiries relative to the state of the vessel, of the crew and passengers, to which a written answer, signed by the captain, pilot and surgeon, (if any be on board) under oath, and pain of death in case of deception or concealment, shall be returned, which answer shall be transmitted without delay to the council of marine, together with all papers mentioned in the following article, but which must be steeped in vinegar and smoked before they are transmitted.
ART. V.
In order to prevent more effectually the communication of disease no respect shall be paid to any letters of health or passports,
of vessels coming from a country or kingdom where a contagious disease prevails not even if the ports from which they sailed were then exempt; or at least the inspect shall not be such as to permit vessels immediately to ascend the river but they shall remain at some station assigned them, until it shall be examined whether they have not had communication with contaminated places by entering any port, and there taking in persons or merchandizes; further they shall not be permitted to proceed to the places of their destination but on the written consent of the council of marine, and after it has been proved that there is no reason to apprehend contagion.
ART. VI.
Vessels coming from infected places shall be obliged to perform a quarantine of forty days; this time however may be abridged or lengthened, or even entirely renewed by the council of marine: And in all cases the raising of the quarantine must be granted by a written permission from the council, without which no vessel can leave the place appointed for the quarantine, on pain of the confiscation of the vessel and death of the captain or pilot.
ART. IX.
During the quarantine no goods shall be discharged from a vessel without the written consent of the council, and any thing which shall have been discharged without this consent shall be confiscated or destroyed, and all those concerned in it punished with death. Excepting however letters, documents and other papers on board the vessel, which may immediately be sent on shore, having been previously fumigated & steeped in vinegar.
ART. XVIII.
And in order that every one may know what are the effects considered as prohibiting, or as capable of conveying or propagating contagion, the following list is given:
1. All cottons, cloths, woollens and other manufactures of the same kind. 2. All sorts of wool, raw or manufactured, flax and hemp, camel, rabbit, and other skins. 3. All silks, raw or manufactured. 4. All peltries, dressed or undressed. 5. All sorts of sails and cordage not tarred. 6. All kinds of skins with, or without hair, hides, hair, brushes, mats and candles. 7. Cochineal—All animals with long hair or wool—all birds—all sorts of feathers, quills, paper and books. 8. All coins which come from a place infected or suspected.
ART. XIX.
On the contrary the following articles are to be considered as allowed, and not capable of communicating contagion.
1. Provisions and liquors, including particularly salted and smoked meats, fish preserved in the same way, fruits, fresh or dry, such as raisins, figs, chestnuts, grapes; likewise all kinds of peas and beans, cocoa nuts, chocolate, citrons, oranges, cheese, coffee, tea, rice, barley, and all kinds of grain, wine, brandy, rum, arak, all distilled liquors, honey, sugar coarse or fine. 2. Drugs of all kinds, spices, and whatever is comprised under groceries, as almonds, cinnamon, cummin, mace, saffron, pepper, prunes. 3. All kinds of bark, roots, and other productions used in medicine. 4. All kinds of oils, even that of the whale, which are bottled, or in jars, or casks. 5. All dyes and gums. 6. All kinds of salts. 7. All kinds of ashes—Potash, &c. 8. All kinds of wood, as Brasil wood, box, logwood, &c. 9. Whale bone, whale and elephant teeth. 10. All horn lanterns. 11. All metals, minerals, &c. except pieces of coin which come from a place infected or suspected. 12. All diamonds and stones, such as marble, tomb stones and others, also china, glass and earthen ware. 13. All kinds of flour, starch, rosin, tar, sealing wax, sulphur and soap. 14. All kinds of lard, tallow, &c.
In addition to the foregoing regulations there are several of a subordinate nature, which we have omitted on account of their length. These principally relate to the authorized intercourse between the crews and persons on shore, to the disposition of infected goods, and to the diseased, for whom hospitals and medical assistance are provided. The general penalty for violation of any regulation is death and confiscation of the goods or vessel.

ALGIERS, March 19.
A ship arrived here from Stockholm, has brought the tribute annually paid to the dey by Sweden. The dey has required of the American agent a ship of the line; and the latter has in vain represented that America has frigates, but no ships of the line. The dey still persists in this demand.
From the Virginia Gazette.
It appears by the Boston papers that the democrats of that state, after all their great exertions have been unable to succeed in obtaining a democratic majority, of the house of representatives. The federal majority in the choice of a speaker was twenty-one; Timothy Bigelow esq. was elected president of the senate.
Political discussions and exertions in that state are conducted with more vehemence now than in any other of the states. Let federal republicans hold fast a little longer, and they will have Virginia to back them. Whatever may be the name the principles of federal republicanism must triumph eventually, or the constitution must fall: the next session of congress will decide the question.
When the present administration came into office, one of the first measures of congress was the appointment of a committee to examine whether or not there had been any waste of public money or knavery in its expenditure.
Since affairs have been managed by men of their own sect, however, all the former mistrust and jealousy, and attention least the people's money should be wantonly wasted, or foolishly stray into private purses, seems entirely to have forsaken the house of representatives. The Duaneites, having nearly or quite become a minority in the house, it is by some hoped, if not expected, that a committee will be appointed the next session, to examine into certain expenditures. Great disturbance was made by the former notorious "committee of investigation" about Mr. M'Henry's payment of two hundred dollars rent: but what would have been thought, if after an examination of the sums of money paid Dunn and an examination of his charges, it should be found that the United States have been swindled out of full many a thousand dollars?
"Can you," says Mr. Randolph, with tears running like water spouts from either eye, "can you bear to see the dear, dear people, whom we all love so mightily, robbed of the hard earnings of their labor?" Such might have been his language; and now, not less tearful, nor in less melancholy "syllables of dolor," can he exclaim—"Can you refuse Mister Duane, who has sacrificed so much for the dear people, can you, I say, refuse him his profitable jobs? Let the "unblushing advocates of unblushing corruption," refuse to patriotism the reward of its labor, but let not this house shew by its conduct in this case the correctness of the complaint of the "ingratitudine of republics." Talk not of erecting a mausoleum to the memory of the great founder of "that monster Federalism: but give to living patriots their just reward." Oh how strong, how sincere, how continued is the love which some men bear towards their country: their creed is, "let each man shift for all the rest, and no man regard himself." This love of the people is so satisfying to some of our democrats, that if shut up and deprived of food or drink along with some of the federalists, one of these amor patriæ bawlers would outlive them a week, feeding on this all nourishing love of the people.
We sincerely hope that the time will come when the sums of money this Duane has received, and his accounts, will be laid before the people: we wish it, not from any impossible expectation of lowering his character, but from a wish to detect persons concerned; for the hands that have handled this tool must be at least as guilty as the tool itself.
Who was it that told the story, the other day, of one of our enlightened democratic members of Congress of this state, who concluded a long electioneering address to his dear constituents, by telling them—"No, fellow citizens, federalism shall never rise again; but democracy shall prevail, till the universe shall be buried in the tomb of eternal ruin; till
The cloudy towers, the odious palaces, The sordid temples, the grey globe itself, Yea all we disinheret shall resolve; And, like the graceless fabric of division, Leave not a crack behind."
There was no withstanding such oratory. "There's learning for you," says one; "I'll bet you a Negro to two hogs-heads of tobacco," says another, "that there is not a federalist in Congress, except Bayard, that can talk latin so well off hand as he does." "Done," says a third "I'll double the bet, for there is not ten words of latin in't; it's poetry without jingle; and I'll go down to lawyer and have him decide." How the bet was decided we will inform the reader as soon as we learn.

THE REVOLUTIONARY PRINTS.
Mr. Elliot's late disclosure of the treasonable plans of certain leaders of the democratic party, merits the most serious and lively attention of every well-wisher to the interest of this country. He has pointedly declared and published it under his signature, that "the destruction of the constitution of the United States has been determined in a private caucus of the JUNTO, alluded to in his foregoing addresses to his constituents. Mr. Elliot would not dare to have hazarded this public declaration, unless he knew it to be a certain and undeniable fact. He most well knew that he has put it in the power of his enemies to overwhelm him with shame and confusion if he has misrepresented them. Indeed no plausible reason can be assigned why he should be moved to publish a false accusation against men of his own political party; and if he has justly accused them, it cannot be denied that the whole nation is in danger from the plots of those conspirators.
The men who lately in a private caucus at the City of Washington, determined the destruction of the constitution of the United States, were members of Congress; they were the official guardians of that constitution and were under the obligation of a solemn oath to support it. What perjury, what treason! and what can be the object of those Catalines? Do they aim at the establishment of a limited monarchy, or rather do they not wish to throw the whole nation into anarchy, as the sure and short way to despotism?
Would a small "junta" be daring enough to enter into this conspiracy, unless they were confident of support from various parts of the union? Who knows the depth and extent of this plot?—Who knows but the projected revolutions in Pennsylvania and Connecticut, are branches of it?
Has the success of Bonaparte encouraged and whetted on his friends and admirers in this country, to act the same game? Are these pretended lovers of the people, even now forging chains for them? Are these professed haters of royalty aiming to build up the throne of an emperor, who shall shed the rays of his favor upon them and make them nobles and princes in the land?
I wish not to excite groundless alarms; but if Mr. Elliot has given correct information to the public, there is great cause to tremble for the ark of our political safety. The moment seems at hand when a desperate blow is to be struck at the nation's liberties; and this blow will come from a quarter whence it will be least expected by the great body of the people from the hands of men who had been perpetually prating about liberty, equality and the rights of man. These are sober truths and it is time for all honest men to unite, heart and hand, and to keep a sharp look out.
N.
ANCIENT AGRICULTURE.
The first settlers of Greece, from wherever they came, were such an uncivilized race, that they used to live on roots, herbs, and acorns, after the manner of beasts. Palagus had taught them the culture of the oak, and the use of acorns as food; for which service divine honors were paid him by the people.
The Athenians, who were the first people in Europe that acquired any tincture of politeness, caught the use of corn to the rest of the Greeks. This art, we are told, was taught them by Triptolemus. The Greeks soon perceived that bread was more wholesome, and its taste more delicate, than that of acorns and the wild roots of the field; accordingly they thanked the Gods for such an unexpected and beneficial present; and honored their benefactor.
As the arts of cultivation increased, and the blessings they afforded became generally experienced the people soon preferred them to whatever the ravages of conquest, and the cruel depredations of savage life, could procure. And accordingly we find, that the Athenian kings, thinking it more glorious to govern a small state wisely, than to aggrandize themselves and enlarge the extent of their dominions by foreign conquests, withdrew their subjects from war, and mostly employed them in cultivating the earth. Thus, by continued application, they brought agriculture to a considerable degree of perfection, and soon reduced it to an art.
Hesiod was the first we know of among the Greeks, who wrote on this interesting subject. According to the custom of the Oriental authors, he wrote in poetry, and embellished his poem with luxurious description and sublime imagery. He calls his poems Works and Days, because agriculture requires exact observations of times and seasons.
The ancient Romans, copying from the Greeks esteemed agriculture so honourable an employment that the most illustrious senators of the empire, in the intervals of public concerns, applied themselves to this profession; and such was the simplicity
of those ages, that they assumed no appearance of magnificence and splendour, or of majesty but when they appeared in public. At their return from the toils of war, the taking of cities, and the subduing of hostile nations, their greatest generals, like the American Cincinnatus, were impatient till they were again employed in the arts of cultivation.
Regulus, when in Africa, requested of the senate to be recalled, lest his farm might suffer, for want of proper cultivation, in his absence; and the senate wrote him for answer, that it should be taken care of at the public expence, while he continued to lead their armies.
Cato the censor, after having governed extensive provinces, and subdued many warlike nations, did not think it below his dignity to write a treatise on agriculture. This work was the first Latin treatise written on this important subject; and it has been handed down to us in all its purity, in the manner that Cato wrote it.
Virgil the prince of the Latin poets, about thirty years before the commencement of the Christian era, adorned this subject with the language of the mules. He finely illustrates the precepts and rule of husbandry in his Georgics, which, for American youth, are better worth reading than his matchless fable of the Gods and Goddesses.
After the death of Constantine, however, the encreasing attention of the Roman people to commerce, and the ignorance and gross superstition of the ages which succeeded, seem to have rendered agriculture an almost neglected science. The irruptions of the northern nations soon abolished any improved system. These innumerable and enterprising barbarians, who over ran all Europe, were originally shepherds or hunters, like the present Tartars and Savages of our own country. They contented themselves with possessing those vast deserts made by their own ravages, without labour, or trouble, cultivating only a very small spot near their habitations; and in this trifling husbandry only the meanest slaves were employed; so that the art itself, which was formerly thought worthy of the study of kings, was now looked upon as mean and ignoble; a prejudice which is scarcely effaced at present, or at least but very lately. Even in the United States, a large portion of the people yet look upon the occupation of the field as degrading to any but slaves.
