For SALE and to RENT.
I wish to sell 900 acres of Land, in Sagar Land Run; being a moiety of 1800 acres, lying on the edge of Loudoun, and in Fairfax county, about 20 miles from Alexan- dria, 19 from George-Town, and about a mile and one quarter from the river—lies level.—It has an abundance of fine timber on it equal to any in the country, and no tract of land can be more expeditiously supplied with innumerable springs of the finest water; there is a part of it laid down in fine clover paddocks, with a good or- dinary and several buildings fit for tenancy. This land was deeded to me, several years ago, by Ferdinand Fairfax, Esquire—the title indisput- able, as may be seen by the title papers in my possession. Terms may be known and the land viewed to any person wishing to purchase, by the author.
I wish to Rent, for 5 or 6 years, an ISLAND in the Potomac,
About fifteen miles from George-town, Containing 215 acres; most of which is clear- ly I am told, by those who have been in Ken- tucky, that it is equal to any land in that state, producing from 10 to 12 barrels of corn per acre in tolerable season. A great bargain may be had in the purchase of the first mentioned tract, and the latter on rent, provided application be soon made. Possession may be had at Christmas , when the present crop will be finished) with li- berty of sowing wheat this fall. It is supposed, by judges, there is a good MILL SEAT, with a stream of water on the 900 acre tract. Any person desirous of purchasing will view it and judge for themselves.

From the Vermont Journal.
MR. ELLIOT, TO HIS CONSTITUENTS. LETTER VII.
The first of Mr. Randolph's resolutions respecting the Georgia claims is in the following words.
Resolved , That the state of Georgia were at no time invested with the power of alienating the right of the soil possessed by the good people of that state in and to the vacant territory of the same,—but in a rightful manner, and for the general good.
This is not objectionable as an abstract proposition: but it needs the addition proposed by Mr. Lyon, viz.—“of which such legislature (the state legislature of Georgia) are the constitutional judges.” They and not congress are the constitutional judges of the extent of their own powers.
Second Resolution —That when the governors of any people shall have betrayed the confidence reposed in them, and shall have exercised that authority with which they have been invested for the general welfare to promote their own private ends, under the best motives and to the public detriment, it is the inalienable right of a people, thus circumstanced, to revoke the authority thus abused, to resume the rights thus attempted to be bartered, and to abrogate the act thus endeavoring to betray them.
It was proposed by Mr. Lyon to amend this resolution in such a manner as that it should not justify a violation of public faith; and every honest man ought to be opposed to it without such qualification.
Third Resolution —That it is in evidence to this house that the act of the legislature of Georgia, passed the seventh of January one thousand seven hundred and ninety five, entitled, &c. was passed by the persons under the influence of gross & palpable corruption, practised by the grantees of the lands attempted to be alienated by the aforesaid act, tending to enrich and aggrandize, to a degree almost incalculable, a few individuals and ruinous to the public interest.
Congress have no power to receive evidence of the corruption of a state legislature, or to act either as accusers or judges in such a case.
Fourth Resolution —That the good people of Georgia, impressed with a general indignation at this act of atrocious perfidy, and unparallelled corruption, with a promptitude of decision highly honorable to them, did by the act of a subsequent legislature, passed on the thirteenth day of February, one thousand seven hundred and ninety six, under circumstances of peculiar solemnity, and finally sanctioned by the people, who have subsequently engrafted it on their constitution, declare the preceding act, and grants made under it in themselves null and void; that the said act should be expunged from the records of the state, and publicly burnt; which was accordingly done;—provision, at the same time being made, for restoring the pretended purchase money to the grantees, by whom, or by persons claiming under them, the greater part of the said purchase money has been withdrawn from the treasury of Georgia.
Congress have no more power to justify the legislature of one thousand seven hundred and ninety six, than they have to condemn that of one thousand seven hundred and ninety five.
Fifth Resolution —That a subsequent legislature of an individual state has an undoubted right to repeal any act of a preceding legislature, provided such repeal be forbidden by the constitution of such state or of the U. S.
A succeeding legislature has no power to repeal a law of a preceding one, by which the public faith was pledged, although the constitution may be silent on the subject.
Sixth Resolution —That the aforesaid act of the state of Georgia, (the rescinding act) was forbidden neither by the constitution of that state, nor by that of the U. States.
This congress has no right to say; and if they do say it, it amounts to nothing.
Seventh Resolution —That the claims of persons derived under the aforesaid act (the corrupt act) of the seventh of January, one thousand seven hundred and ninety five, are recognised, neither by any compact between the U. S. and the state of Georgia, nor by any act of the federal government.
This is not true in fact, upon a candid construction of the instruments alluded to and a view of all the circumstances of the
case. At least it appears to me; to the honorable mover of the resolutions it appears differently.
Eighth Resolution —Therefore Resolved, that no part of the five millions of acres reserved for satisfying and quieting claims to the lands ceded by the state of Georgia to the United States, and appropriated by the act of congress passed at their last session, ought to be appropriated to quiet or compensate any claims derived under any act, or pretended act, of the state of Georgia, passed, or alleged to have been passed, during the year 1795.
This would be a violation of public faith and of every principle of political expediency. By an act of congress approved March 3, 1803, a general appropriation is made of the five millions of acres, and a particular course is prescribed for the claimants to pursue in the exhibition of their claims, in consequence of which they have already been subjected to considerable expense as well as labour.
The United States never paid a cent for the five millions of acres, and but a mere trifle for the remaining part of the territory.
Nothing can be clearer, therefore, than that it would be expedient to quiet the claims. But the great objections which I have constantly urged to the resolutions are founded upon the idea that they are repugnant to the constitution of the United States.
By the constitution the states are interdicted from passing laws impairing the obligation of contracts. The act of 1795 created a contract upon the face of it, and if it be alleged that the apparent contract was void on the ground of corruption, the question must be determined by a court of law, and not by a succeeding state legislature, or by Congress. By one of the first amendments of the constitution, all those rights and powers, appertaining to the states, and not expressly yielded to the general government, are reserved to the states respectively, or to the people. The legislative powers of the state of Georgia, alluded to in these resolutions, belong to the class which has never been given up to the Union. We have no power therefore to make any decision upon their validity or invalidity, or to delineate the sphere or extent of their operation. It would be an act of usurpation. Whatever idea may be entertained of inquisitorial and censorial powers in relation to other subjects, there can be no doubt that this would be an assumption, on the part of congress, of inquisitorial and censorial powers over the state governments.
Applicable to my conduct in opposing those famous resolutions is the sentiment of the mover in reference to his able efforts in supporting them. “It will be a subject of never failing self gratulation to me that I have done so, as it would have been of remorse had I done otherwise.” JAMES ELLIOT.
From the Paris Moniteur.
NEW CONSTITUTION OF HOLLAND.
HAGUE, March 17, 1805. On Friday last, in the Legislative Assembly, a letter was received from the Directory of State, proposing, 1. That a new plan of the Constitution for the Batavian nation, shall be laid before the people for their assent or dissent; provided, 2, That on the eventual acceptance of it, the proposition shall at the same time be made to the Batavian people, to accept as Pensionary, Rutger Jan Schimmelpennick, invested with such power and authority, as is prescribed in the plan of the Constitution; and 3d, That the Directory of State, in pursuance of the clauses contained in the decree of September 14, 1804, shall submit the one and the other to the Batavian people.
This letter was referred to a Committee of nine members, among whom was De Lange Van Wyngarden; and the proposition was, in the mean time, ordered to be printed for the use of the Members.
The plan of Constitution consists of 29 octavo pages, divided into 87 articles, the first nine of which contain general limitations: From article 10 to 14, inclusive, the territorial division of the Republic is fixed which, as hitherto, is to form eight Departments, again divided in Arrondissements or Districts, which are settled by law, the exercise of suffrages to continue provisionally on the present footing. It also proposed that no ecclesiastics, of any persuasion, shall be eligible to offices of political Government, and that the military shall only have a right to vote at the place of their established residence, and not where they may lie in the garrison.
Articles 15 to 57 inclusive, treat of the Legislative Body, the title of which is to be Their High Mightinesses, representing the Batavian Commonwealth, the Members of which are to adopt the title of High and Mighty Lords. The sovereignty of the Batavian people is to be represented by that Assembly, with the Pensiary.
To it is to belong the enactment of Laws; it is to consist of nineteen members, to be elected every three years, and to be nominated by the Departmental Governments, viz, seven for Holland, one for Zealand, one for Utrecht, and two for each of the remaining provinces; their qualifications, to be voters, of the age of thirty, born within the eight departments or colonies of the state, and before their appointment having resided six years in the department to which they are elected.
The Departmental Government nominates four persons and transmit such nomination to the Pensiary, who reduces the number to two, from which the former elects.
The Pensiary opens the Assembly of Their High Mightinesses, when they proceed to the election of a president from their body; the assembly to be assisted by a recorder, elected from a nomination made by them of two persons not of their body, to be transmitted to the Pensiary.
All decrees of said Assembly to be signed by the President, and countersigned by the Recorder. The members of that assembly to vote, without being charged by, or consulting with, the Departmental Governments, to whom also they are not responsible for their conduct in the Assembly of Their High Mightinesses.
The members of the Departmental Government, secretaries of State, members of the council of finances, and of the courts of justice, are not to sit in said assembly until they have regained the posts which they filled on their nomination. Said assembly debates on no other subjects than those submitted to it by the Pensiary; they consent to or negative them, without making any change or modification; and the law proposed passing in the affirmative, intimation of it to be immediately given to the Pensiary, he being charged with the promulgation and execution of it. If it be negatived by the assembly, it also gives the Pensiary notice of the rejection, and of the reasons for such rejection, when he may propose it once more, adducing new motives, or making some alteration in it.
It is to that assembly exclusively confided to deliberate on the general estimates of the public necessities, and all augmentations thereof, to be laid before it by the Pensiary. At his instance it grants, after having received information from the national court of justice, pardon, abolition, or remission of punishment, inflicted by judicial sentences; and, not being assembled, he is qualified to suspend the execution of a sentence, but obliged to communicate the matter to the assembly on its succeeding session. To that assembly exclusively belongs the right of ratifying treaties of peace, alliance, and commerce, but the secret articles attached to such treaty are not comprehended in that ratification, which articles, however, must not be repugnant to the public ones, and not tend to the cession of any territory of the Batavian commonwealth; nor can any declaration of war take place before a previous decree of Their High Mightinesses, passed on the proposition of the Pensiary.
The assembly to meet twice a year, viz, from April 15 to the 1st of June, and from the 1st of December to the 15th of January; but it may be summoned to meet extraordinarily, as often as the Pensiary shall deem it advisable. One of the members of that assembly go out on the 1st of December, and the day of their withdrawing is fixed to the first day of assembling; which withdrawing, for the first time, shall occur in December 1, 1805. For indemnity, travelling expences, and residence at the place of meeting, the members are to enjoy annually 3000 guilders. The members whose time have expired are again eligible; and on the termination of each session, the assembly is to be closed by the Pensiary.
Articles 38 to 61, inclusive, fix everything relating to the Pensiary, and contain in substance as follows:
The Pensiary, by virtue of the constitution, represents their high mightinesses in all that concerns the government, and exercises the executive power in their name. He is elected for five years, by the majority of the nineteen members of assembly, and may at all times be re-elected. The commencement, however, of the first five years is to take place from the period of the peace with England, computing from the 1st of January of such year. He may

sign at pleasure, when, in such or other cases he is to be succeeded, ad interum , by the president of their high mightinesses, whose duty it is to summon the members immediately, for the appointment of a successor.  The pensionary exercises, in no case, any legislative power, and is excluded from interfering with matters which are confided to the tribunals instituted by law: nor is he to dispose of the pecuniary means of the state, otherwise than in conformity to law. He appoints a council of state, of no less than five and no more than nine members, who must possess the same qualifications as the members composing the assembly of their high mightinesses and whom he is obliged to consult previous to laying a proposed law before their high mightinesses; he may personally support such law in the assembly, or cause it to be done by members of the council of state in his name. He appoints a general secretary, and five secretaries of state for the department of foreign affairs, of the marine, of war, of home affairs and of the finances, the latter having under him three counsellors, to assist him. He also appoints the diplomatic agents to foreign courts, all officers of the army and navy, all functionaries of the state, and all the members of the tribunals appertaining to matters of general government, excepting those of the national court. The fleets and armies of the Batavian commonwealth are at his disposal; he confers military rank; the security and dignity of the state is to be maintained by him; the uninterrupted administration of justice, the maintenance and execution of the laws; he is charged with the supreme police throughout the whole republic, as well in civil as ecclesiastical matters; and appoints the magistrates of the place which is the seat of government.  The pensionary has the chief direction of the national treasury; he fixes the salaries of the public functionaries, and grants pensions according to the provisions made by law. He delivers annually a general estimate of the wants of the state to the assembly of their high mightinesses, who are to approve or reject, but not to alter it. This estimate is to be an item for objects not susceptible of being specified, and of which the pensionary disposes for the service of the state, and to indemnify him for supporting his office with proper dignity, and the payment of the persons employed in his particular bureau; nothing else being required of him at the end of the year, than a declaration in his handwriting, that the said sum has been expended exclusively for the necessities and interest of the state, without having served to enrich himself or his family. The financial means continue as at present in each department; but it is recommended to the pensionary, as one of his first cares, to devise every possible means of augmenting the public revenues, to simplify every branch of administration, and to introduce every where the most rigid economy; to present new projects of laws, whether for the improvement of the present mode of taxation, or for the institution of a general system of finance, instead of the present departmental plan of taxation.
BOSTON, May 30.  ANNUAL ELECTION.  Yesterday forenoon, the legislature of Massachusetts, for the current year, met at the new State House, in this town, and proceeded to the regular organization of the several branches of the government.

In the ballot for speaker, the whole number was 223, of which the hon. Timothy Bigelow had 159, and was declared to be elected. [The democratic candidates for speaker and clerk, were Perez Morton, Esq. and Charles Pinckney Sumner, Esq. Mr. Morton had 151 votes for the former office, and Mr. Sumner 146, for the latter. There were but three scattering votes on each ballot. The two legislative branches of the government being thus organized, they were joined by the governor and council, and escorted in procession to the Old South
Meeting House by the Independent Cadets, under the command of col. Apthorp, where a very excellent sermon was pronounced by the Rev. John Allyn, of Duxborough. The two houses convened in the afternoon, for the purpose of filling up the vacancy in the senate, created by the incomplete election of senators for the county of York; but owing to some irregularity in the return of votes, the committee, appointed to examine them, could not agree, and the senate, after enlarging the committee, adjourned. The house was employed in appointing committees and organizing the internal regulations of their department.

Sailed from Point Petre (Guad.) 27th April: 29th, Antigua bearing E. by S. was brought to by a schr. under French colors, which afterwards proved to be the schooner Blanche (privateer) commanded and owned by captain Horner Jenning, late of Baltimore, who after examining the ship's papers, and finding a valuable cargo, concluded to send her into Antigua, where they arrived 30th, and after 12 days detention was brought to trial; the plea was, that there was no certificate that the duties were paid on the importation of the cargo exported to the West Indies. Left at Antigua, 17th May, ship Mary, Knight, of Portland, from Martinique, bound to New-York, with a valuable cargo, waiting trial; brig Susannah, Rigly, of Philadelphia, from Liverpool to New-Orleans, taken by a French privateer, retaken by the British, waiting trial; the captors suing for salvage; schr.

Alexandria Daily Advertiser.  THURSDAY, JUNE 6.  The sloop Diana, Lewis, of this port, was left at St. Pierres, (Mart.) 22 days since.
Captain Brown of the ship Juliana, from Cadiz, arrived at New-York, has communicated the following intelligence:  "At the time of my departure from Cadiz, the Eagle, a French 74, two French corvettes, and two Spanish frigates were ready for sea; and eight sail of the line were fitting out with all expedition. Troops were embarking daily, and a great quantity of ordinance, &c. had been taken in on board each ship. The general report was that they were destined for Spanish America, to garrison the line of demarcation, between the territories of Spain and of the United States. This report was confirmed to me by one of the officers of the fleet; who added that the French and Spanish ships had made a considerable interchange of officers.  "The uniform of the troops embarking is blue faced with red, a round hat turned up on one side, with a feather in it; the officers wear superfluity of gold lace.  "General Moreau was at Cadiz. He waits the arrival of his son from Paris, and intended to come to New-York in the Juliana. It is said he has received orders to quit Spain immediately; and this sudden and unlooked for intelligence had a very unfavorable effect on the health of his lady, who was learning the Spanish language with the expectation of being permitted to remain there.  "Gibraltar is tranquil and has received a reinforcement of two thousand troops from England. The Spaniards keep an army before it, but have attempted nothing.  "The British fleet consisting of 5 ships of the line, a frigate, a brig and a cutter,
were constantly cruising off the harbor, often close within its mouth, and sometimes nearly within gun shot of the batteries.
"The men of war in the port of Cadiz consisted of     Guns.    St. Trinidad  St. Anna  Argonaut  St. Rafael  Terrible  Glorious  Bahama  America  Espanje  San Leandro  Curtilla  Magdalena frigate  
and two other frigates names unknown to me.  "The governor of Cadiz, under date of the 30th March, directed a notice, of which the following is a translation, to the board of commerce:  "In a letter which I have just now received from vice-admiral Orde, dated yesterday off this port, he informs me that he is authorised to permit neutral vessels, with innocent cargoes and bona fide neutral property, to enter and sail freely from this port, and from that of San Lucas: but if the said vessels should be wholly or partly loaded with naval or military stores or with provisions and grain, he cannot permit them to enter either of the said ports; and that in consequence he had given the necessary instructions to the ships under his command that this regulation may be complied with.
When the Juliana left Cadiz, 57 days since, flour was 25 dollars per barrel.  From the Connecticut Courant.
ELLIOT'S LETTERS. —Mr. Elliot's letters to his constituents have deservedly excited great attention. These letters were apparently directed by an honest and independent mind, and they disclose truths of a very interesting and solemn nature; truths which naturally strike the public ear more forcibly, as coming from a man belonging to the same political party with those leading characters who, in effect are accused by him of exorbitant ambition and jacobinical violence.  Independent of the personal character of Mr. Elliot and the high rank he has obtained in society, there are powerful reasons for reposing a confident reliance on the truth of his representations.
1. His personal interest was intimately connected with the interests of the party whose leaders he has exposed. His feelings had been enlisted on their side; and there seemingly could have been nothing short of a firm conviction of duty that could have induced him to have borne public testimony against them.  The bias of mere personal interest would have led him to conceal rather than divulge the ambitious views of his associates, and to obtain a share with them in the monopoly of power.—Therefore the presumption is, that he sacrificed considerations of a private or personal nature, to a high sense of duty.
2. Mr. Elliot well knew that by exposing the ambitious and corrupt views of certain leaders of his party, he was exposing his own political character to public proscription. He must have been well aware that he was disturbing a nest of hornets, which would assail him with their stings. He must have been aware that in most of the democratic papers throughout the country, he would be denounced as an apostate from real republicanism, and that his honest independence would never meet with cordial forgiveness from men who "feel power, and forget right." This fearful apprehension has staggered minds of less firmness. Several of the democratic members of congress, have privately expressed the anguish of discontent at the overbearing manner and violent measures of certain leaders of their party; but, fearing the lash, they have prudently "pocketed their clergymen."
They have scowled and shaken their heads and shrugged their shoulders, and in low whispers have expressed their pointed disapprobation of the views and measures of certain leaders of their party; but they dare not expose themselves to jacobinical fury by a public avowal of their feelings and sentiments. Elliot, "putting his life in his hands," has come boldly into the field, and has openly attacked the naughty Goliath that threatens destruction to the nation's liberties. Under these circumstances who can suspect the honesty of his motives or the truth of his narrative.
3. The rage against Elliot, occasioned by the publication of his letters, has vented itself merely in personal abuse. Of what consequence is it to the public whether Mr. Elliot be a third party man or a no party man, whether he sprang from a rich or a poor family, whether he had been a "sergeant," or a colonel in the army, whether he had a public or a private education, whether he be a young man or an old and experienced statesman, whether he be vain or insensible of his own talents? What is all this to the purpose? The only question that nearly concerns the public is, whether Mr. Elliot's statement of facts be correct. Until this statement be
refuted, the public have a right to believe it true, and if true, it is worthy of the deep and solemn consideration of all well wishers to the interest and welfare of the country, to which ever political party they may belong.
"BY THEIR FRUITS WE KNOW THEM."  Though the genuine republicans have been in power but a short time, honest and moderate men of their own party, in New York, in Pennsylvania, in Virginia, and indeed in almost all parts of the union, are crying shame upon them for their tyranny. Who has not heard that Virginia is the pink of modern republicanism, the redoubtable defender of the equal rights of man! Well let us see how the republican patriots who have all power in their hands, manage matters there.
A Mr. Jones, who is a Virginian democrat, or republican, has lately published an address to the people of Virginia, from which we extract a few short paragraphs.—He thus begins,  "An Union of all Honest Men."  "The violent proceedings of the legislature of this state, at their last session, calls in the most imperious language upon the citizens to adopt this admirable sentiment. The rage of democracy threatens us with the most disastrous events, and unless there is a timely union of all honest men, we shall ere long be plunged into a state of anarchy and confusion."
In another paragraph he uses the following language of indignation and keen reproach towards the tyrannical leaders of his party.  "To degrade and humiliate the federal part of our citizens appears to be the favorite object of our present ruling partisans—to attain this object every other consideration is made to yield. The great interests of our country are sacrificed at the altar of party rancor, and malevolence, merely for the purpose of gratifying a weak and wicked revenge. Is this fellow citizens, a desirable state of things?"
The writer concludes with declaring that he has not changed his political sentiments, but that he is still a republican, though he holds in detestation the violent and tyrannical conduct of the leaders of his party.  "But now, perhaps, I shall be charged with a direction of my former opinions, be it so. I however freely declare, that my mind has not undergone the least change, and that the foregoing sentiments are the dictates of a cool and dispassionate view of the political situation of our country, and from a conviction that nothing short of an 'union of all honest men,' can save us from that greatest of political evils, anarchy and confusion."

The very great demand and high esteem in which these pills are held throughout the United States and the West Indies, has induced many to counterfeit them; the purchaser is requested to observe that the name of Samuel Lee, jun.
