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

CONGRESS OF THE UNITED STATES.
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.
Monday March 1.
REPORT.
CONCLUDED.
The construction which is insisted upon against the proceedings of the commissioners is that they are bound by the law to apply annually 7,300,000 dollars; and that that application must in the very year in which it is made, extinguish a debt or pay an interest due that year, excluding from what is thus considered as a legal payment, any payment on account of a debt falling due after that year. Neither of these propositions appears to me to be in any degree supported by any part of the law.
The first section of the law makes an annual appropriation of 7,300,000 dollars.
The second section enjoins it as a positive duty on the secretary of the treasury, to cause to be paid annually, to the commissioners of the sinking fund the said sum of 7,300,000 dollars, thus appropriated.
The third section directs the commissioners to pay every year the interest accruing, and the instalments or parts of principal falling due during that year; and then proceeds in the following words:
"And also, it shall be the duty of the said commissioners to cause to be applied, the surplus of such funds as may at any time exist, after satisfying the purposes aforesaid, towards the further and final redemption by payment or purchase, of the present debt of the United States." &c.
There is nothing there which binds the commissioners, after they have satisfied the purposes aforesaid, that is to say after they have paid the interest and principal falling due in any one year, to apply the remainder or surplus of the 7,300,000 dollars, if any, during the course of the same year.
Provided, that the secretary had placed at their disposition in due time, the funds necessary to meet the instalments and interest due in the year, it would be a good execution of the law if he paid to them the remainder of the appropriation on the last day of the year; in which case it would be impossible for them to apply that remainder till the ensuing year.
That act, in fact, as well as all the preceding laws on that subject, places a discretionary power in the commissioners, both as to time and manner, for any payment other than those which fall due in the year, and which must at all events be made; and the proviso of the first section actually contemplates the case of the money remaining unexpended for six months after the end of the calendar year, to which the annual appropriations refers, and provides, that under certain circumstances such surplus shall cease to be at the disposition of the commissioners.
In the present instance, however it is on the part of the secretary of the treasury contended, that more than 7,300,000 dollars have, exclusively of the payment to the bank, been applied during the year 1802, towards the further redemption by payment of the debt of the United States and that, after having paid the interest & instalments which fell due during that year, the purchase of about three millions and a half of guilders remitted to Holland towards the payment of the Dutch debt falling due next year, was a faithful, legal and proper execution of the law.
It is difficult to prove a negative; in this case the law is silent as to the species of debt, and the time or manner of applying the surplus monies, there is nothing which excludes from the meaning of the law an application in the year, which will produce a payment in the ensuing year. The words 'by payment or purchase,' are according to the strict sense of the sentence connected with the word 'redemption;' the further and final redemption is to be effected by payment or purchase; the application of monies which the commissioners may legally effect, is towards that further redemption; the subtlety of the objection seems to consist in making the words 'by payment,' depend immediately on the words 'to cause to be applied;' from which it would result, that the application, instead of being, as expressed by the law, towards a redemption, which redemption must when effected, be effected by
payment or purchase, would be confined to an immediate payment; and as the purchase of bills is not an immediate payment, but a provision towards a future payment, such purchases would be excluded from that authorization in the law.— Not only that construction is not justified by the strict sense of the words as connected in the sentence; but if it was adopted, it must follow that there did not exist, nor ever had existed (for the phraseology of this sentence is transferred from preceding laws) any authority whatever in the commissioners of the sinking fund to provide in time for the payment of the Dutch debt. They must according to that new construction, be bound in the application of the surplus of the fund to an immediate payment, and not be permitted to purchase remittances for the purpose of making a payment the ensuing year. For this is the only clause which authorizes the commissioners to make any payment, other than the payment of the interest and principal falling due that year; and if it forbids them to make the purchase of bills under the appropriations of 7,300,000 dollars, it forbids them altogether, there being no words in the clause, limiting its effect to that appropriation.
It is hardly necessary to dwell any longer on the manifold absurdities which must flow from this assumed construction, and indeed I have no time left for any further observations. Yet I would remark that when the act passed such an application was contemplated, and that it was stated explicitly that it was necessary to provide for the payments due in Holland, at least six months before it became due. The statement (S) annexed to the report of the 18th Dec. 1801, which exhibited the effect of an annual appropriation of 7,300,000 dollars on the debt, was actually predicated on that supposition.
Permit me to add, that the demands in Holland were so considerable, and the difficulties apprehended in procuring the sufficient remittances so alarming that it is confidently believed that no application of the surplus monies of the sinking fund could have been more beneficial to the interests of the U. S. than the purchases of remittances which have been made. The whole of which was payable in 1803, which was the heaviest year, has been remitted without reload, and without the employment of an agent abroad, and being now so much before hand, I apprehend no longer any difficulties in procuring at a reasonable rate, the remittances which shall be wanted for meeting the payments of the following years.
It has been impossible to transcribe the detailed accounts which were required; but I enclose an account (B) of the purchases made in 1801 and 1802, on account of the Dutch debt, showing the prices paid in 1802, and the amount of remittances purchased before the 1st of Jan. 1803, applicable to the payment of this year. This must still be considered as an estimate, though more correct than that of the report to the commissioners of the sinking fund.
I regret the late hour at which the resolution was introduced, for no other reason than because it prevents my furnishing the more detailed account which the mover was desirous of obtaining. But I trust that all the information which was substantially necessary to meet the object of the resolution has been given; and I must rely on the indulgence of the committee for the many imperfections which must be attached to this hasty communication.
I have the honor to be, Respectfully, Sir, Your obedient servant, ALBERT GALLATIN, Honorable John Randolph, Esq. Chairman of the Committee of Ways and Means.
RATSBON, January 14.
The following is the convention concluded at Paris, relative to the indemnities of the grand duke of Tuscany.
CONVENTION.
His majesty the emperor, king of Hungary and Bohemia, having signified that he could not consider the 5th article of the treaty of Luneville, as far as it relates to his royal highness the Archduke Ferdinand, grand duke of Tuscany, as sufficiently fulfilled by the plan of indemnities agreed to by the deputation of the empire; and as the first consul of the French republic, on his part, has nothing more at heart than
to contribute to the entire and perfect fulfilment of that treaty, it has been resolved, with the consent of his majesty the emperor of all the Russias, to agree on certain modifications, to be introduced into the plan accepted by the deputation of the empire, to render it conformable to the principles of the treaty of Luneville, and such as may receive the ratifications of the emperor and the empire. For this purpose, the high contracting powers have appointed their respective plenipotentiaries, namely, his majesty the emperor, king of Hungary and Bohemia, the Sieur John Philip Count Cobentzel; and the first consul of the French republic, Citizen Joseph Bonaparte; who having exchanged their full powers, have agreed to the following articles:
Art. I. To enlarge the indemnities stipulated in favor of his highness the duke of Modena and his heirs, his imperial majesty cedes the district or province Ortenau, with all its dependencies, to be united to the Bisgau, and his highness and his heirs shall possess these two provinces, without any exception or limitation, according to the 4th article of the treaty of Luneville, which with respect to the duke, is to be understood as well of the Ortenau as of the Bisgau.
Art. II. To indemnify his Imperial majesty for his cession of the Ortenau, the two bishoprics, Trent and Brixen, shall be secularized, and his majesty shall receive possession of the same, and all their property, right and revenues, only under the condition that he shall provide for the maintenance for life of the two prince bishops and their chapters, as shall be agreed on, and for the future dotation of the clergy, which in these dioceses shall be placed on the same footing as in the other provinces of the Austrian monarchy.
Art. III. To complete the indemnities of his royal highness the archduke, grand duke (of Tuscany,) the bishoprick of Eichstadt shall be added to what has already been assigned to his royal highness by the general conclusion or recess of the 2d Frimair (Nov. 23,) to be possessed by his royal highness and his heirs, in full sovereignty and independence, with all the property, revenues, rights and prerogatives connected therewith, as possessed by the signing of the treaty of Luneville; only with the exception of the districts of Sandee, Wernfels, Spalt, Oberberge, Horenberg and Warburg, with all the dependencies of the bishopric of Eichstadt, contained in the territories of Anspach and Bayreuth, which shall remain to his electoral Palatine highness of Bavaria and shall be recompensed to his royal highness the archduke, grand duke, by a suitable equivalent from the domains of his electoral highness of Bavaria in Bohemia, and in case there should not be sufficient, from other revenues of his electoral highness.
Art. IV. For the confirmation of the said stipulations and the property and other rights which his imperial majesty, as sovereign of the Austrian hereditary states, and head of the empire, has agreed on and ceded for the completion of the plan of indemnities as modified by the present convention, shall be ratified by the empire, and that it shall without delay, receive the imperial ratification.
Art. V. It is expressly understood, that after the exchange of the present act, the territories mentioned in the preceding articles shall be taken possession of, both in the civil manner, by the princes to whom they are allotted, or in their names; also that the city of Passau, and the suburbs of Instadt and Ildat, shall be immediately evacuated by the troops of his imperial majesty, and given up to his electoral Palatine highness of Bavaria, but under condition that the fortifications of the city shall not be enlarged or strengthened, but only maintained in the present state; and that no new fortifications shall be erected in the suburbs of Instadt and Ildat. Also in the territory of the bishopric of Richstadt, no new fortifications shall be erected by his royal highness the archduke Ferdinand or his heirs.
Art. VI. The first consul of the French republic will unite with his imperial majesty of the Russias to procure the electoral dignity for his royal highness the archduke Ferdinand.
Art. VII. The high contracting parties guarantee reciprocally the fulfilment of every thing contained in the preceding articles, and the minister plenipotentiary of his Imperial majesty of all the Russias shall be invited to accede to the present convention for and in the name of hi,
Imperial majesty, as a contracting party.
The present convention shall be ratified within twenty days from the present time or sooner if possible.

Alexandria Advertiser.
TUESDAY, APRIL 5.
Mr. Printer, — UNDERSTANDING that it will be made a question at the next Fairfax election, for a member of Congress, and for members of the state legislature, whether those persons who reside in the County of Alexandria, in the District of Columbia, have a right to vote — I have taken the trouble to examine the subject, and now submit the result for the information of those who may require it.
By a law of the Virginia Legislature, passed on the 20th day of December, 1795, in the 2d section, and page 22, of the revised code, it is declared—that "every male citizen (other than free Negroes or Mulattoes) of this commonwealth, aged twenty one years, or such as have refused to give assurance of fidelity to the commonwealth, being possessed or whose tenant, for years, at will, or at sufferance, is possessed of twenty five acres of land, with a house the superficial contents of the foundation whereof is twelve feet square, or equal to that quantity, and a plantation or fifty acres of unimproved land, or lot, or part of a lot of land in a city or town established by act of general assembly, with a house thereon of the like superficial content or quantity, having in such land an estate of freehold at the least, and unless the title shall have come to him by descent, devise, marriage, or marriage settlement, having been so possessed six months, and no other person shall be qualified to vote for delegates to serve in the General Assembly, for the county, city, or borough respectively in which the land lieth."
The same qualifications are necessary to enable any person to vote for a member of Congress—as will appear by the 2d section of the 1st article of the constitution of the U. States.
The real enquiry is, who are citizens of the commonwealth of Virginia? This will be ascertained by the law of Virginia, which was passed at the May session of the Assembly, in the year 1783; the 1st section of which enacts, "That all free persons born within this commonwealth; all persons not being natives
who have obtained a right to citizenship under the act, entitled, an act declaring who shall be deemed citizens of this commonwealth (this last act was passed in May, 1799) and also all children, wherefoever born, whose fathers or mothers are, or were, citizens at the time of the birth of such children, shall be deemed citizens of this commonwealth, until they relinquish that character in manner herein after mentioned." The same section, after stating how those who are foreigners may become citizens, goes on and declares that those who shall become citizens in the manner prescribed by this act, "shall be entitled to all the rights, privileges and advantages of citizens, except that they shall not be capable of election or appointment to any office, legislative, executive or judiciary, until an actual residence in the state for two years from the time of taking such oath or affirmation as aforesaid, not until they shall have evinced a permanent attachment to the state, by having intermarried with a citizen of this commonwealth, or a citizen of any other state of the United States, or purchased lands to the value of one hundred pounds therein."
The 3d section of this law directs how a citizen may expatriate himself: for this law see page 213, of the revision of 1783. The provisions of this law are continued by a subsequent law, passed the 23d of December, 1792, page 216, of the revision of 1792, as will be seen in the 1st, 2d and 5th sec. of this act.
The 8th section of this last act, permits certain persons who were residents of Virginia, or any of the United States on the 10th of April, 1775, and not included in the 6th section of the same act concerning Tories, and who were prohibited by law, at the time of passing the act of 1792, from migrating into this state, to migrate into it, and enjoy all the rights of citizenship, "except, that they shall not be capable of voting for members to either House of Assembly, or of holding any office of trust or profit, civil or military."
Independent of these various acts of the legislature giving in positive terms to all non-resident citizens, being freeholders and aged 21 years, the right to vote at the elections for members of the state legislature, and of course for members of the House of Representatives of Congress — The constitution of the United States secures this right, by declaring in the second section of the 4th article, that "the citizens of each state shall be entitled to all the privileges and immunities of citizens in the several states." The immemorial usage of the country supports this fair construction of this election law.
The objection that some have urged, that none can vote, but such as may be elected, and as those who reside out of the state cannot be elected, they cannot therefore vote, is removed by reading the 4th section of the election law, in the 23d page, which declares that "every person qualified as aforesaid to vote for a delegate, shall be capable of being elected a delegate for the county, city or borough, or senator for the district in which he resides."
Having clearly, I think, established by the acts of the Virginia legislature, and by the constitution of the United States, the right of the residents in the district of Columbia, being freeholders in the state of Virginia and aged twenty one years, to vote—I trust they will feel themselves bound, by every sentiment which ought to actuate a true republican and a man, to exercise that right at the ensuing election for members of the state legislature, and for a member of the house of representatives in Congress.
A Resident in the District of Columbia and a Citizen of Virginia. PORT OF NEW-ORLEANS OPEN. Letter from General Wilkinson to the Governor. Fort Adams, Feb. 17, 1803, } Nine o'clock, P. M. }
SIR, I wrote to you today by lieut. Wilkinson, and inadvertently dated my letter the 18th; since which I have received a note of the morning, from capt. Shaumburgh, dated Bayau-Sarah, by which I am informed the government of Louisiana, (the Spanish government) has given permission for the deposit of all kinds of provisions in N. Orleans, on paying 6 per cent. duty. I make this communication to you by express, for the interest of those who adven-
ture and deserve, and I think it should have publicity as soon as possible. With perfect consideration and respect I am, Sir, your obt. servt.
JA. WILKINSON. His Excellency Gov. Claiborne.
From Cape Good Hope. Capt. Williamson, of the ship Perseverance, touched at the Cape Good Hope on the 2d February, at which time the English forces continued in possession of the fortifications, &c. The Dutch remained in the situation in which they were placed by the mutual arrangements of the 1st Jan. and were daily expecting reinforcement. The occasion of these circumstances was a mystery at the Cape, and it was equally uncertain what would be the issue.
Secret Service Money. It has long been our intention to make some remarks upon two laws passed at the late session of congress, secretly appropriating between two and three millions of dollars for secret services. We wish to have our remarks accompanied by copies of these acts, only one of which has been published. Why an act which puts into the hands of the president two millions of dollars to be disposed of at discretion, should be withheld from the public, while laws of much less importance and passed at a subsequent period of the session, are printed and published, we cannot decide. It seems to be generally supposed that the two millions have been sent to France by Mr. Monroe, and that he is to make such use of the sum, among the courtiers of the First Consul, as will procure for him a favourable reception, and for the U. States, a restoration of their violated rights. It is conjectured that the other sum of two thousand five hundred dollars appropriated in secret, and which is said to be for extending the external commerce of the United States, is to take a different direction.
It would probably be a kind of opprobrium in the nature of treason, to suspect that two millions of dollars, aided by the address and intrigue of Mr. Monroe, and backed by the sagacity and philosophy of Mr. Jefferson, could fail to procure us a new treaty as good perhaps as the old one which we have lost: But time must be taken to accomplish it. During this time the people of the western country are cut off from the enjoyment of their rights, and are suffering great loss of property. Now if a few thousand dollars slyly slipped into the hands of some of the officers at New Orleans would induce them, by some cunning collusion, to admit our produce for a month or two, during the high waters of the spring until Mr. Monroe can have time to return with his new treaty, the whole object would be very sougily accomplished. What, then, can be more probable than that the two thousand five hundred dollars are to be applied in this way? This conjecture is rendered the more probable by a profound and mysterious paragraph in the Aurora, which says: "It is reported that captain Lewis, the president's private secretary, is to proceed in a few weeks on a journey towards our south western frontier and that its object is of a political nature." Should this journey prove successful, we may expect shortly to hear that our produce is again admitted into New Orleans, according to treaty.
Whenever our rulers shall condescend to indulge us with a sight of the act appropriating the two millions, we shall resume this subject, and relate some interesting particulars connected with the passage of the law. (Gaz. U. S.)
