ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS REWARD.
RANAWAY from the subscriber on the 29th of October last, a negro man slave named BOB,
about 20 years of age, five feet nine inches high straight limbed and well formed; said slave hath an impediment in his speech which prevents his readily replying to a question. He commonly wears ear-rings. He took with him a variety of good clothing, a description of which is unneces- sary, as it is probable he has changed them. He has been frequently seen about town since he ab- sconded, and in all probability is now secreted by his mother, Winney Brown, formerly the slave of Mr. JOHN MUIR, late of this town, but now said to be free. The above reward will be paid for securing said Negro BOB, in any goal, and a further reward of TEN DOLLARS for the dis- covery of those who have been accessory to his concealment.

LIVERPOOL, February 29.
In this temporary suspension of the executive power, it will readily be conceived that administration must be greatly embarrassed in conducting the arduous affairs of the nation, at the present most important period.
Should no material improvement occur in his majesty's health, either a communication will be made by ministers to both houses, or the subject will be taken up by the leading members, unconnected with them, immediately.
This account principally rests on private authority, but it has not been ratified by government, who have received reports from the noble admiral of a late date.
In speculating upon the probability of the Toulon fleet being out, the first enquiry to be made is, whither is it going? A formidable fleet of transports is known to have been long collected in that harbour, and it has been thought by some that an attempt would be made upon Egypt and the Morea.
LONDON, February 23.
The latest accounts from Holland state that the expedition against this country will not take place till April. Other accounts say that every thing is ready.
A letter from Rotterdam, dated 4th of February says: "The French have in the most unheard-of manner, searched the shops of the principal shop-keepers at Hiffengen, and forcibly taken from them all such goods as they choose to alledge are of English manufacture, and sent them up to Antwerp and Middleburgh; and, under pretence of looking for spies, they have exercised a very vexatious search in several private houses.
It is confidently stated, that in the Treaty signed at Madrid by Joseph Bonaparte, guaranteeing the neutrality of Spain, beside the sum to be paid upon the face of the treaty, there was one equal to a million sterling stipulated for, which went into the private pocket of the Bonaparte family.

The 48th and 66th Regiments have been ordered to be completed with all possible dispatch to 1000 rank and file, and are under immediate orders for Ceylon. They will go out with the East-India fleet.
A letter from Amsterdam, dated 31st ult. received in Glasgow, on Monday, states, that a bag of letters dispatched from London on the 27th ult. was, on its arrival at Amsterdam, by a neutral vessel, seized by order of the First Consul, and carried to Paris. The object of this measure is evidently to discover the English goods and merchandize sent to Holland, and to trace the articles to the owners and receivers.
and to trace the articles to the owners and receivers.
Letters from Portsmouth state, the loss of the cutter belonging to the Leviathan man of war, off the Isle of Wight. The crew, consisting of two midshipmen, the surgeon's mate, a Russian gentleman, a volunteer, and nine seamen, amounting in the whole to fifteen persons, unfortunately perished.
The Dutch, they say, are decidedly of opinion, that the long-threatened invasion of this country will not be attempted. It seems they are cruelly oppressed, and are only waiting the friendly interference of some powerful State, to free themselves from that abject slavery they have so long endured.
We understand that there has been some difficulty respecting Mr. Sheridan's appointment which we are happy to hear is removed. It was not at first thought of, that General Lake had many years ago obtained the reversion of the office.

The Pope has addressed to Bonaparte a brief relative to the Ecclesiastical affairs of Germany. Its object is to shew the necessity of taking effectual means to maintain the Catholic Religion in the Empire, lest the ecclesiastical might undergo the fate of the temporal estates of the Church.
A letter from Jersey, of the 21st inst. says: "At near three this afternoon, the Severn ship of war that lies in Granville Bay sent a despatch to the commanding officer, and one to her Captain, the Duke de Bourbon, who lives at La Bagatelle near St. Hilliards, that fourteen sail of the enemy's ships were in sight steering down channel. The wind blowing very strong, is quite fair for them, but the Severn could not get out with it.
The report of the capture of St. Helena, by Linois, is, we are happy to believe unfounded. The India company having heard from that island, under date of an early day in January, confirms the impossibility of this account of its capture, arriving by a Baltimore vessel which is come to Cork, and which is the suggested authority for the report; besides which there is reason to suppose that Linois was on the coast of Coromandel, as late as September, from whence he proceeded to Mauritius.
Letters received from the in shore squadron, dated off Brest the 21st inst. bought to Plymouth by a cutter from the Hon. Admiral Cornwallis
states the enemy were in stato quo, but that certain intelligence had been received by our fleet that two line of battle ships, of 74 guns, and a frigate had escaped from L'Orient, and got safe into Rochfort.
On Saturday accounts were received of an embargo having been laid in all the Ports of France, from which it is inferred that the enemy means immediately to attempt the invasion. Orders have been sent in consequence to all the naval Stations along the coast.
The Lord Chancellor has had an audience for the first time of her majesty, and a communication the result of that conference, has been made to the Prince of Wales.

From the Lancaster Journal, March 24.
Let the people of Pennsylvania read the following arguments; and then if they wonder why the judges are impeached, WE also shall wonder.
Major Alexander Ogle, Esq. of Somerset. HIS SPEECH.
On the question relative to the impeachment of the Judges in the House of Representatives, on Tuesday last:
MR. SPEAKER, As I was one of the committee of grievances who brought forward this report I shall give my reasons for the way I shall vote on this question. Although Mr. Speaker I am not an orator yet I will in a plain blunt manner deliver my opinion and try to make every gentleman on this floor understand me.
Moses Levy proved nothing except that a lawyer would take a fee on both sides. Moses Levy stated that Ingersol was one of the counsel and yet he had been employed on both sides. It is clear there was only one suit. The Gentleman has argued that no notice was given to Bayard. Certainly he must have had notice. If a sheriff serves a FI FA on a person it is sufficient reason that there is a suspicion of debt. What better notice could a man have than the sheriff.

ives by despotism, and not giving my sanction to such tyrannic and aristocratic acts.
Mr. Speaker, I wish to give my opinion as far as I am able to the citizens at large. It was yesterday argued that we should consider the situation and respect for the ages of the judges of the supreme court. I would ask that gentleman if this argument ought to apply or have any weight. If a man has been respectable for forty years may he not in a single hour lose it all? No doubt but the judges were respectable, because the office is respectable. I am convinced, sir, that the office is respectable let the man be what he will. No office can be created by a republican government but they will be respectable although they were filled with bad men. We don't want oppressive men to administer the laws. Every man ought to be tried by a jury before he can be punished in any way—jury trials ought to be held sacred. If we can sanction the conduct of these judges will it not be said that the legislature are taking away the farmers liberty. Who was it but the farmers that saved us in '89 (or '99) when the head of republicanism was plunged under water by a set of aristocratic lawyers and judges. When all men are born upon equal grounds is it republican to place a man at jail as pleasure. I want to ask, sir, where our notes which were taken with a pencil, are a little defaced; but, as nearly as we can recollect, the sentence was in substance as follows: I want to ask, sir, if a suit is entered against me in the supreme court by a man in Somerset county if I could not publish in Somerset county anything against him without being punished in this way by attachment. Why do we abolish the British laws if we found that we had our liberty under them. Shall we again draw that cloud of oppression over our heads? The farmers of Pennsylvania sent us here to enquire into the conduct of officers. A set of men who are led away with passion and pride, and no longer worthy of holding offices in a republican government. We are not sent here to sanction overbearing and arbitrary men in their arbitrary and aristocratic proceedings. When we find a man fettered, shall we beat him. No. Let us relieve him if possible. Not suffer one man to oppress another at pleasure. I contend Mr. Speaker, every citizen in Pennsylvania has a right to publish what he pleases, provided he is answerable for it. Shall he be punished by an attachment? No, let him be tried by a jury. No man should lose his liberty but by the laws of his country, and we will not sanction. Are we to give up our opinions to British authorities, Blackstone & Coke & others. And shall we not relieve the grievances of Pennsylvania. Mr. Speaker, we are to relieve the citizens and these officers, ought to be removed. These men in high and dignified offices. I don't say officers, but their offices are high and dignified. It may be said that a high and dignified office may be held by men that are not high and dignified.
From considering the every point in this business—from considering Mr. Passmore's situation, from his answering interrogatories it appeared he gave false action; when he didn't ask Bayard's pardon, he ought not to, when the insult of the contempt of court was satisfied by his answering interrogatories. Mr. Findley [alluding to Mr. Findley new member of Congress] has said that the case of Oswald was a stretch of power in the judges. Had they got a check at the time this would never have happened. If we let this pass over they may order that all those who vote for the impeachment shall go to jail because we won't bow down to them, they certainly have a right to commit us. It appears by Mr. Henry's and Mr. Shoemaker's and Milnor's testimony that only these three judges committed the act. It appears judge Brackenridge was not moved by the same spirit of SEDITION. I hope we'll show the people of Pennsylvania that we are not here to sport upon their liberties, but to deal out justice. One man may be a supreme judge and another dealing out jews-harps, but their liberty is the same.
On these grounds I most cheerfully give my vote against the judges. And I do hope and trust to the ALMIGHTY GOD!!! they will be put upon their trials; and that if they are convicted they may sit down on their feasts and repent—and me likewise, (and then Mr. Ogle sat down, but whether he repented or not, is unknown.)
On the subject of impeachment. Mr. Speaker, I think as dis gwestion does not require much consideration. Our study is only to ax weder we are to be giberned by de Parisn laws, or by de laws of this goundry. It we are to giberned by de laws of Great Pritain den de judges will be glear. But if we are to be giberned by de laws of Bennsylfany den we shall go on. Dem that are for de Parisn laws will vote against de impeachment and dem dat are for de laws of Bennsylfany will vote for pringing dese judges to impeachment.

Pennsylvania Legislature.
We beg leave to point the attention of our readers to the speeches of Major Ogle and Mr. Alter, delivered in the Pennsylvania House of Representatives, on the impeachment of the Judges. We think they will be pronounced as pure models of genuine democratic eloquence, as our country, in its progressive state of improvement has yet produced. When such men take the lead in a Legislative assembly, it is evidently to be seen what kind of justice will be dealt out to Federal Judges who are exposed to their grasp. In short, we should not be at all surprised if these sapient legislators were, in due form of law, to declare federalism in itself a high crime or misdemeanor. (N. Y. Evening Post.)

"Our market does not present that activity we could have expected, after so long a state of stagnation. Sugars however have augmented in value; and we are in hopes will improve. The other articles both of importation and exportation, remain pretty much the same as when we had last the pleasure of writing you. Indigo & Caraccas Cocoa continue to be scarce, and in great demand."

RIGHTS OF MAN.
An old English Songster appears to understand this subject much better than the Abbe Sieyes, or even Tom Paine. In proof, we give the following stanza, from "Will Chip's true Rights of Man." (Boston Centinel.)
Equal rights; equal freedom; may each one possess! The richest no more, and the poorest no less! But all rights have their bounds; the rights to do evil, Is no right of man, but the right of the devil.
Volunteer toast given at a meeting of the Alexandria Tammany Society. "Michael Leib! and Joseph Clay! firm and determined republicans who refused to abridge the people's right even when they [the people] were fain to desire it!!!!!!!" This is the very essence of republicanism with a witness. Not so much could be said for Mr. Jefferson himself. No! he is not half such a republican as Leib and Clay are. Were the people of the United States to desire to abridge their rights, Leib and Clay would by no means agree to it. This is keeping the people from their worst enemies, themselves, with a vengeance.

REANIMATION.
WHEN the most important functions of life are suspended, and those who are involved in impudence, inheritance, accident or disease, are tottering upon the brink of the grave, it is not in despair that relief is to be found! There is a medicine which has rescued thousands from infirmity and misery to health and happiness, which is
THE AROMATIC LOZENGES OF STEEL.
Since this excellent medicine was first discovered by Dr. Bardwell, several thousand females have experienced its salutary effects; many of whom had been reduced to the brink of the grave having used every remedy recommended as specific in those complaints, and had made every application to the faculty that could be obtained. The following recent case is selected from a numerous list.
From Mrs. Eleanor Wadsworth, Providence, (R. I.)
Sir, WE received yours and with much pleasure comply with your request, as my daughter has certainly received very great benefit from Dr. Bardwell's Aromatic Lozenges of Steel.
In the winter of 1802 my daughter, who is in her 17th year caught a very severe cold, which with the violent fever which accompanied it, confined her to her room upwards of four months; during this period we paid for Doctors bills and medications 150 dollars. The fever left her in the most deplorable, an inert inert state with hardly any use of her limbs, so that we were obliged to carry her from bed to the chair. Being strongly persuaded by the Dr. that we went to Ball's Town Springs and stayed the season, and thought she gained considerable strength by the use of the waters; but by the fatigue of the passage (having very rough weather) she became as weak and not much worse than before. During the last winter her whole nervous system has been so irritable, and her spirits so low and depressed, that death to her was desirable. In the latter end of January we saw an Advertisement recommending the Lozenges of Steel for similar complaints, we immediately purchased a packet of them, and before the whole of them were taken, they evidently produced a change in her system, which no medicine before had been able to effect; we sent for two more packets. It is now fourteen days since she began to mend; she has laid aside her crutches, has been twice on horse back, and if the weather will allow she will go to Ball's Town Springs; from there we will send on our address, where with pleasure we will satisfy any inquiries.
Price one Dollar per Packet.
Particular directions for their use are sealed up with each but as the great benefit to be derived from them can only be secured by having them genuine, the public are requested to observe that the name of Thomas Stokes & Co. is affixed to each packet, without which mark of authenticity they are not genuine
The Lozenges of Steel, are only to be had, in Alexandria, of Messrs. R. & J. GRAY, WHO HAVE ALSO ON HAND, A SUPPLY OF Family & Patent Medicines, -CONSISTING OF-
Chambaud's Anastomatic Lozenges; Ague and Fever Drops; Antibilious Pills; Anodyne Essence for Head Aches; Reanimating Solar Tincture; Dr. Bardwell's genuine Eye Water; Atkinson's Essence of Mustard; Scotch Ointment for the Itch; Tooth Ach Drops; Aromatic Lozenges; Essence of the Woods, &c. &c.
Dr. Hunter's genuine Antibilious Pills,
For the prevention and cure of Yellow, Bilious and Putrid Fevers.
Every experienced physician knows what dangerous disorders arise from a redundancy of bile in the habit; however salutary a due secretion of this fluid may be, yet a difficulty of it in the circulation is known, from its purulent qualities, to bring on sudden and fatal fevers. The unparalleled success of Dr. Hunter's Antibilious Pills, in curing, and particularly in preventing this dreadful disease, is universally known in the islands, and has induced the proprietor to appoint agents in all the mercantile towns in the United States, for the accommodation of the public. The Antibilious Pills are therefore, in an especial manner, recommended as a preventative, deserving the notice of all persons going to the West Indies, or any of those places infected with these fevers. Dr. Hunter has every possible reason, that can result from long and extensive experience for believing that a dose of these pills, taken once every fourteen days, during the prevalence of our fall fevers, will prove an infallible preventative, and that, if taken in the early stages of these fevers, their use will very generally succeed in restoring health, and frequently in cases deemed desperate and beyond the power of common remedies.
The operation of these pills is perfectly mild, may be used with safety by persons in every situation and of every age.
In sickly times and places a dose should be taken once a fortnight, and if there is reason to apprehend personal danger, once a week.
Observe that the signatures of Messrs. Thos. Stokes and Co. is affixed to each box, without which mark of authenticity they are not genuine.
Dr. Atkinson's genuine Essence of Mustard.
Rheumatism in every stage, instantly submits to its penetrating powers, which has succeeded in curing the most desperate cases of rheumatism, gout, lumbago, sciatica, numbness, palsy and complaints of the stomach, after sprits medicines have proved ineffectual. It is prepared in pills, and also in a fluid state. The pills are particularly serviceable in flatulency and indigestion, and by their faculty operation, promote perspiration, and gradually undermine the most obstinate rheumatism; and at the same time, invigorate the debilitated constitution. The fluid essence has a remarkable active embrocation, necessarily with the pills, and as generally excites a tingling sensation; it removes the causes of pain, by bringing on a circulation in the parts affected; by this means, frozen limbs, the severest sprains and bruises, and strains aneurysms, are generally cured by a few applications. The genuine is distinguished from counterfeits, by the signature of Thomas Stokes and Co. being affixed to each bottle; without which mark of authenticity, none are genuine.
relation to the arts affected by this means, frozen limbs, the severest sprains and bruises, and strains aneurysms, are generally cured by a few applications. The genuine is distinguished from counterfeits, by the signature of Thomas Stokes and Co. being affixed to each bottle; without which mark of authenticity, none are genuine.
The genuine Scotch Itch Ointment.
The only medicine that cures this disagreeable disease, by one application, so many individuals having experienced its efficacy; it is unnecessary to add any more arguments in its favor, but to caution the public that the name Thomas Stokes and Co. is affixed to each box, without this mark of authenticity, none are genuine.
Dr. Bardwell's genuine Eye Water.
A sovereign remedy for all diseases of the eyes; speedily removes inflammation, dimness, itching, and if it once fails to cure the eye, the money will be refunded. It cures the measles, small-pox, and fever; and is an unparalleled strengthener of a weak sight.
Dr. Hunter's genuine Antibilious Pills.
An agreeable and certain preventative of the predisposition to inflammatory and malignant fever, which prevails at particular seasons of the year. The rapid and increasing demand from every part of the United States, and the West India islands, is the best evidence of their superior excellence.
CHAMBAUD'S Anastomatic Lozenges.
A radical cure for coughs, colds, asthma and catarrh, difficulty of breathing, &c. &c.
Mr. CHAMBAUD, the sole proprietor of this medicine, has the satisfaction to announce that they have been the means of relieving many persons in a most precarious state of health. In common colds this medicine produces so salutary a perspiration that they generally are eradicated in a few hours. Coughing, being prolonged by that convulsive symptom termed the tickling in the throat, it shortens its duration by promoting sleep and strengthening the constitution. Pulmonary complaints, affecting the breast and lungs; those affected with them experience an almost immediate relief. Asthma and confined consumptions have repeatedly been eradicated by them. Infants in the hooping-cough, and women during pregnancy, may take them without the least fear of danger, and with the greatest expectation of relief, nor can it be administered at an improper season.
Dr. BARDWELL'S Anodyne Essence, for all kinds of Head Aches.
THE renowned virtues of the Anodyne essence, is now so generally known, that it is no presumption in the Proprietor, to say, that Head Aches, arising from whatever cause, or however violent, instantly submit to its penetrating powers. This invaluable Anodyne, has frequently succeeded after the best advice, and every other remedy had failed; by its salutary operation, it insensibly promotes circulation and perspiration, and thereby prevents the return of the most obstinate periodical head aches.
SPRING PHYSIC.
DR. HUNTER'S Anti-Bilious Pills are unquestionably proved by ample experience to be the most effectual remedy, at the same time the most innocent, pleasant, and convenient medicine for the cure of scurvy, scorbutic eruptions, leprosy, and other disorders originating from a corruptive state of the blood. The remarkable cure of Mr. Elinton, of Albany, who had been twelve years tormented with a most distressing scorbutic complaint, as also that of Thomas Johnson, a labouring man, in the service of Mr. Van Rensselaer, who was afflicted with a most horrid leprosy, must have convinced every one who has read the particulars of these cases, besides which, a variety of proofs of their efficacy, authenticated by persons of character and respectability are open to the examination of every inquirer. These must naturally be supposed to have their due weight, and supersede the necessity of any further comment from the Proprietor, as he presumes to assert, that the real merits of this vegetable preparation will, on a fair trial, plead more forcible its own recommendation than any thing which can be said of it.
Where also may be had,
Atkinson's Worm destroying Lozenges. These Lozenges not only destroy worms where they exist, but effectually prevent their return. Those families who have followed Dr. Atkinson's advice, and used them in the Spring and Fall among their children, as their common physic, have new the happiness to find those children which appeared sickly and consumptive, in the bloom of health, being entirely delivered from those dreadful vermin.
Sparta, Mount Pleasant, March 27, 1803.
We hereby certify, that our daughter, about 4 years of age, has been very unwell and in a bad state of health for the last two years. We always suspected that she had worms and had given her several worm medicines without any good effect, so that we despaired raising her till of late. Hearing of some surprising cures being performed by Atkinson's worm destroying Lozenges, we purchased a packet of them, and administered them according to the directions. The first dose brought away only one worm, and with it a quantity of flimy, often five matter; the second brought away four monstrous thick worms nearly half a yard in length; and the third dose, a large quantity of a flimy, offensive matter. The vomiting and purging, with which she was frequently troubled have ceased—her appetite has become regular, and has over since enjoyed a perfect state of health, for which we are entirely indebted to this excellent medicine.
DR. BARDWELL'S
Re-animating Solar Tincture, or Pabulum of Life Of the cure of Consumption and Asthma. Disorders in the Stomach and Bowels, Convulsions, Cholick and Diphtheria.
Cautions in investigation, and attentive enquiry into the nature and laws of the animal economy, having long confirmed an opinion in the mind of the inventor, that all the maladies abovementioned, derive their origin from the same cause, indigestion, debility, or consequent weakness, the analogy of their source, by a natural inference suggested the idea of their removal by the same means; the result was the discovery of the Re-animating Solar Tincture, which after having been employed in thousands of instances, with the most unexampled and astonishing success, has obtained the warmest approbation of characters of the first respectability, both in and out of the profession; the proprietors can confidently recommend as one of the most certain, efficacious, and pleasant remedies ever discovered by man or offered to the world.
Price 1 dollar, and 1 dollar 50 cents per bottle. The large bottle contains nearly two of the small. Copious Directions for their use are sealed up with each bottle.
Dr. Stoughton's Cordial Bitters, faithfully prepared at the original warehouse, London.
This incomparable medicine has stood the test of universal approbation in Europe for near an hundred years, in the cure and prevention of,
Loss of appetite, bad digestion, windy cholick, artefacts, hysterical vapours, faintness and trembling, ague and fever, depressed spirits, foul breath, worms in children, scurvy, obstructions on flaps, ages, bilious fevers, sick fits, &c. &c.
These Bitters being now generally used in taverns and public places, and universally acknowledged by all who have tried their effects, to be far superior to the compositions formerly imposed in imitation thereof; the Proprietor has reduced the price to those who purchase largely above fifty per cent. Directions will be paid on the Bitters, and which will be also sealed, in order to detect counterfeits and upstart pretenders, who will all tell you, they make the genuine Stoughton's Bitters; and in order to impose their trash on the public, they sometimes copy a part of the true advertisement and directions.
Specific Drops for Deafness.
FOR many years have these drops been used with amazing success, in DEAFNESS & HARDNESS OF HEARING. Those who are unacquainted with the great relief afforded by this valuable medicine, are earnestly recommended to try it. Few are the cases in which it has not been of great service, and very often perfected a complete cure.
Copious directions for the use of the Specific Drops for Deafness are sealed up with each bottle. Price one dollar.
