Extracts from "The Political and Confidential correspondence of LEWIS THE SIXTEENTH, with observations on each letter." By Helen Maria Williams. In three volumes Octavo.
LETTER
TO M. DE MALESHERBES.
Versailles, May 2, 1776.
TURGOT, my dear Malesherbes, is no longer fit for the place he occupies; he is too pertinacious, even in the good he wishes to do. Despotism, in my opinion, is good for nothing, even when it would force a great people to be happy. The parliament, the nobility, and, above all, Maurepas, who loves me sincerely, demands his retreat; and I have just signed it. I do not see why this act of rigor, necessary for the public tranquillity, should occasion your resignation. You possess Turgot's talents, without his asperity of character: you are tolerant, without being weak; and the good which you despair of accomplishing to-day, you have the wisdom to defer till to-morrow.
Remain in the ministry, my dear Malesherbes. Your freedom of character is still necessary to me; and it is a debt you owe to your friend, if not to your king.
LEWIS.
Observations on the VIth letter.
M. TURGOT had not reached the end of his ministerial career. He had succeeded in gaining enemies wherever he proposed reforms; and, as his principal support, next to the rectitude of his views, had been the approbation of the king, he had only to fall when this last stay bent under him.
Two or three days before the king pronounced the sentence of dismissal against him, M. Turgot observed to the monarch that this event must soon necessarily take place. He had already given Lewis some intimation on this subject in preceding letters; and, conscious by what a feeble thread he hung, when it was on the king's favor and perseverance, he observed to him with somewhat of prophetic harshness, that the fate of weak princes was that of Charles the First of England, or of Charles the Ninth of France.
It is to M. de Malesherbes that the king imparts his intention: it is to the friend and colleague of the minister he is about to disgrace, that he brings the accusation. "Turgot, My dear Malesherbes, is,"—what?—an ambitious, inattentive, or prodigal minister?—no! he is obstinately persevering in the good he would do—too inflexibly just! What a minister!—what an accusation! "Despotism," says the king, "is good for nothing, even when employed to force the people to be happy." This sentiment, taken in the abstract, is just, and even sublime, when proceeding from the lips of a monarch: but the following sentence of the king's letter furnishes the commentary of the apophthegm, and the excuse of the minister.
"The parliament, the nobility, Maurepas especially, who loves me, demand his dismissal; and I am going to sign it." This was the division against the minister;—in his favor were his inflexibility in good, the applause of the wise and virtuous, and the benedictions of the people. But this is a subject too serious for declamation; let us review, in an authentic document, this host of enemies held up by the king against his minister; let us read the defence of this minister, not in apologies written by himself or his friends, but in the solemn and public acts of the monarch, confirming the great reforms which Turgot had projected.
This act is the answer of the king to the remonstrances which the parliament made against the enregistering the edicts for the suppression of the jurandes , (the privileges of the companies of arts and trades,) of the corvees , and for the generalisation of the taille , or personal tax. This answer was given about six weeks previous to the dismissal of M. Turgot.
"I have examined," says the king, "with great attention, the remonstrances of my parliament; they contain nothing which has not been foreseen, and maturely digested, before I decided on sending my edicts and declarations. But my parliament ought to have seen that all these laws have for their object to secure abundance in my good City of Paris, to release commerce from restrictions that were injurious to its prosperity, and to provide relief for such of my
subjects as subsist only by their manual labour, and who are the most exposed to indigence. My intention is not to confound rank, nor to deprive the nobility of my kingdom of those distinctions which it has acquired by its services, which it has always enjoyed under the kings my predecessors, and which I will always maintain. There is no question here of an humiliating impost ( taille , or personal tax, but a simple tax to which every one will think himself honored in contributing, since I myself have set the example in proportion to my domains. I am happy to believe that my parliament has been moved only by its zeal; for I can never suppose that it has any intention to withdraw itself from the submission which it owes me. But, now that I have myself explained the motives which engage me to persist in my resolution, I expect that it will no longer defer proceeding to the pure and simple enregistering of my edicts and declarations. It may rest assured, that, if I hereafter find that any of the articles contain inconveniences which I have not been able to foresee, my regard for my people will engage me to remedy them."
The parliament continuing refractory, the king a few days after held a bed of justice, in which he enregistered M. Turgot's edicts. "There are none," said the king, "who love the people but myself and M. Turgot." The monarch at this time acted from no impulse of enthusiasm; it was the result of calm, reflective deliberation. The parliament had remonstrated; the nobility, the courtiers, the whole cast of the privileged of every description, the titled, and the rich, had put themselves in the insurrection against the minister; the king had weighed their objections, had considered all the tendencies and bearings of M. Turgot's reforms, and yet stood firm with the minister against the tempest. This triumph was, however, but short. The rock against which Turgot leaned, was at length undermined. "Maurepas especially, who truly loves me," says the king, "demands his dismissal." If a review of the former part of the administration of this minister favors the supposition that he acted sincerely with respect to the reforms, though he was more moderate in his views than the ministers whom he introduced to the king, M. de Maurepas, on further examination, appears to be nothing but the mere courtier, and of a nature more designing and dangerous than is commonly the mistreasure of princes to find. Two years before this period, he had expelled Maupeou, and his parliament, the creatures of the crown to the lowest dregs of servility, introducing a reactionary parliament, and a reforming ministry. These instruments were necessary for the consolidation of his own power. Having gained the ambitious ascendancy over the monarch, he now uses his influence to defeat these new competitors for royal power; and, alarmed at the progress which liberal and philosophical principles had made on the mind of the king, he checks at once the dangerous propensity, and, with the authority of a Mentor, as he was titled, demands the minister's dismissal.
Demand Turgot's dismissal! The minister might indeed be dismissed from the royal presence; but could the recollection of his virtues, his acts of beneficence, his enlarged and noble projects, his great and stupendous enterprise of calling a whole nation into political existence, be dismissed from the minds and hearts of the people? Vain illusion! The immortal principle had now taken root, that privileges, when opposed to the happiness and well-being of the people, were but dust in the balance,—had been proclaimed loudly from the throne; the doctrine was embedded; it had put on form and substance. Unlike the idle hypotheses of visionary statesmen, there was in Turgot's plans that full, practicable, and practical benevolence, which comes from the heart, and goes to the heart. His capacious mind embraced the universality of his country; it was the love of mankind which devoured him. Turgot might be disgraced by the court; but his name will for ever be held in honorable remembrance by his country. A few years only have intervened; the parliaments, the nobility, Maurepas, the monarchy, have all been swept away; and what remains? the recollection of Turgot's virtues, and that stupendous monument, of which he laid the foundation, the great and immortal principles of the French Revolution!
Five days after Turgot's dismissal, Malesherbes reluctantly retired in opposition to the unfortunate interests of the King, who was thenceforth left to the direction of M. de Maurepas.
FOREIGN NEWS.
New-York, May 28.
French accounts to the 13th April are received at the office of the Morning Chronicle by the Young Edward, from Bordeaux.
Of France, we do not find any thing of particular interest. Moreau had not been tried, nor had any thing particular taken place relative to his fate. It was reported that Georges had destroyed himself in prison. The preparations for invasion had been interrupted in a small degree by the conspiracy, a secret knowledge of which on the part of the French government, was supposed to have thus far delayed the expedition. The preparations were now resumed with particular rapidity, and the attempt was expected to be shortly made. The general appearance of affairs in France was thought more friendly than formerly to the idea of a change of government.
The Paris papers mention the arrest of two more conspirators, named Courchery and Charles d'Hozier in the following terms:
"Citizen Paques Inspector General of the Grand Judge, accompanied by citizen Comminger, commissary of Police, and some chosen gen d'armes has arrested Charles d'Hozier, one of the principal brigands, he was concealed with one Gallet, a lateman in the street of St. Martin. He had with him several wigs for disguises, and false whiskers of the same colors as the different wigs. It was this Charles d'Hozier who provided at Paris the lodgings of the brigands. It was he, disguised as a coachman, who went for Georges, at St. Leu, the 1st of Sept. last, and brought him to Paris."
"Victor Guchery the confidant and accomplice of Pichegru, equaly distinguished in the official list, was arrested on the 8th Germinal, (29 March) by citizen Paques, in the street of Babylon, where he was concealed; the brother of this Guchery, has become at London, the hired calumniator of the French nation, in the Journal, entitled "Le Courier des Londres;" being prevented by sickness from accompanying Pichegru in his passage to France, he associated his brother in the plot."
A number of persons had been taken up by the police and sentenced to punishment for keeping the doors of their habitations open at improper hours, in violation of the law of 22d July.
At Toulouse, citizen Paris, commissary of war, and citizen Paule Vaille, had been arrested, and their papers put under seal.
From Strasburg mention is made of the further arrest of several emigrants on the borders of the Rhine, who had come from the interior of France and were on the wing for Germany. It is said that they hoped to escape, by prompt flight from the searchers, and perquisition which might be made against them, in consequence of the discoveries relative to the plot against the First Consul. They speak also of several very important papers, which throw great light on the plan of the conspirators.
From Constantinople, accounts of the 29th February, state:
"There has been for some time a great activity in our arsenals."
Gen. Brune, ambassador from France, has had for some days frequent conferences with the Reis Effendi, minister of foreign affairs. They have been in part relative to a new tariff on duties of entry. General Brune, has also made some suggestions relative to Egypt and has proposed certain means of protecting that country against every influence inimical to the interests of the Porte.
It appears that those overtures of the French ambassador have taken place, since the receipt of a note from the English minister to the Ottoman minister, in which he demanded, "that the Porte shall receive in Egypt a certain number of English troops, to guard and defend that important possession of the Grand Seigneur. His Britannic majesty will engage by means of a sufficient guarantee, which he offers to restore the said country, and entirely to remove his troops, as soon as circumstances, will cease to require them as a defence." For the present, the Porte has made no reply to this note; there is no doubt but the reply will be negative, or at least evasive.
We have received intelligence, that a Russian frigate with several transports have arrived in one of the ports of the Black Sea. The frigate, and the troops are destined for Corfu.
Information is received via Smyrna,
that Ali Pacha, governor of Alexandria has become reconciled with the foreign consuls. He quits Alexandria for Cairo, the Porte having confided to him the general government of Egypt.
The ambassador from Russia has declared by a circular letter to all the foreign ministers, that according to a decision of his court, the harbor of Sebastopol will be appropriated exclusively to receive the Russian vessels of war, and that no others will be admitted.
The Grand Signior, is about to marry the daughter of his predecessor Abdul Hamidan, to the Pasha of Ezerum.
From Russia.—Accounts to the 10th March from St. Petersburg mention that the frequency of couriers both Russian and foreign, who arrive and depart, induces the belief that some important negotiations are pending, but the whole is conducted with the utmost mystery.
An ukase had been recently published which is considered as highly creditable to the emperor Alexander. Under the reign of Catherine, the inhabitants of Tobow complained heavily against the officers who administered their government. A committee was instituted to investigate the affair pronounced in favor of the magistrates who were the most powerful party. The complaints were renewed under the reign of Paul, who conciliated himself with punishing some of the offenders. The emperor Alexander having examined these affairs himself has set aside the judgment formerly pronounced by the senate, and has passed in its place a sentence, depriving all the persons who compose the government of their functions. The governor himself is not suffered to appear at St. Petersburg, several have been deprived of their nobility, and all, from the first to the last, are prohibited from ever holding any office either in the civil or military departments.
The emperor Alexander is not yet 28 years of age, (he was born in 1777) it is mentioned to his honor that in the short space of six months, he has produced a reform in the colleges of medicine, and the departments of finance; he has founded and organised the university of Wilna; he has called round him a number of the most learned characters of Europe; he has punished with equal severity and justice, those agents who abused the power he had delegated to them; and he has rewarded with magnificence the princes, senators and counsellors, who by their zeal, their talents and their integrity, had merited his confidence.
TURKISH FRONTIERS. Under date of Semlin, March 6, it is stated that the troubles in Servia are daily becoming more serious. Most of the Christian inhabitants of that province are in a state of insurrection against the Turks: those who have retired to the woods receive daily supply of provisions, arms and ammunition, from the chief men of the territory, and even from the Pashas of Ullitz and Nisa, the declared enemies, of the Dey of Belgrade. Their number is about 6000, divided into three columns.
The animosity of the Servians to the Dey has reached its height. The Dey continues to pursue the persecuting system they adopted. On the 21st Feb. they sent a detachment of 400 Turkish infantry against the insurgents; this troop was welcomed with a smart reception, and, after a short action, was repulsed with considerable loss. The Dey then demanded of the Pacha his mediation to reduce the insurgents to order. He replied that as he had borne no part in the acts which had incited the Christian inhabitants to insurrection, he would not interfere in the affair, and left to the Dey all the responsibility. We are assured that the insurgents have sent a deputation to Constantinople to inform the Porte of the state of things and to demand the punishment of the Dey. In the mean time, Servia is in the most melancholy situation; not only commerce is interrupted, but all travelling has entirely ceased.
New-York, May 30.
By the British Packet LIMESTER, London and Halifax papers are received at the Office of the Morning Chronicle. The London dates are not so late as those already received. The only additional article of interest, which on a hasty perusal they appear to contain, is the following letter from Paris, which was written the day after the Duke of Enghien's execution, though previous to that event being generally known. It is stated to be from a diplomatic agent in Paris, to his friend in England.

Yesterday the Ministers of the Elector of Baden received a courier from his Sovereign. He immediately went to Talland's Hotel, requesting an audience, and protested, in the name of the Elector, against the violation of his territory. He demanded that the French Government should disavow the conduct of General Caulincourt, and send back the prisoners whom he had made to the other side of the Rhine. Talland answered, that by the Treaty of Luneville, the States of Germany are bound to give up all persons conspiring or plotting against France; and that, by the law of nations every state has a right to enforce such stipulations, where the contracting party is not strong enough to cause them to be observed, or its infidelity is suspected; that Caulincourt had only obeyed the orders of the First Consul; that all the prisoners were to be tried immediately, and that the principal of them was at that moment before the tribunal. The Minister of Baden, in the evening, sent back a courier with this answer: The diplomatic corps, and all the people of Paris, except those immediately connected with government, were ignorant of the arrest of the Duke d'Enghien, until a late hour last night, when his sentence was posted up in the Palais Royal, and on the corners of the streets. The patrols, which were doubled, and the numerous Police spies, prevented the surprise and indignation of the people from showing themselves in any acts of violence; but the imprudent declarations of a few, added new victims to those who already crowd our prisons. The minister of Baden, this morning, went to Count Cebenitz, the Imperial Ambassador, and communicated to him the particulars of Talleyrand's answer. The latter had not until then heard of this affair, at least such was his declaration. The Imperial Ambassador did not hesitate to wait upon Talleyrand, and requested that the execution of the sentence might be deferred until he had informed his Sovereign of the affair. He requested this delay "more as a personal favor, the Emperor being related to the Duke of Enghien, than in the name of the Emperor, as Chief of the Empire, the neutrality of which had been violated." The example of the Imperial Ambassador was followed by the Ambassadors of Spain, Naples, and Etruria, whose Sovereigns, all Bourbons, are more nearly related to the Emperor than the Duke of Enghien. They all received the same answer from Talleyrand, viz. that he "will report their request to the First Consul." In the mean time, these ambassadors dispatched couriers, to their respective courts, and many persons think, that Bonaparte's pride will be gratified, by pardoning a Bourbon, and publishing to the world as an act of generosity, a deed commanded by policy, justice, and humanity.
TRANSLATIONS
From Bordeaux papers, received at the Office of the Daily Advertiser.
PARIS, 15th Ger. [April 5.] Since the year 8, [1800] a plot has existed to deliver Breton to the English. A person named Rivoire, an old officer of marine, was prevented from being the author of this plot. The accumulated proofs against him were of great evidence; and yet, according to the forms and the manner of administering justice in the naval courts, a jury at Breton pronounced, on the 23d Germinal of the year 10, that he was convicted, but not guilty. The tribunal of Cassation [repeals] repealed this sentence the 19th Prairial following: it is ordained that the person named Rivoire should be transferred to the maritime court martial of Rochefort. We know not by what fatality he was condemned, the 2d Ventose, year 11, only to transportation. Was there ever a crime more enormous, or could one make a bale attempt more disastrous for the nation than the firing of Breton, or the treason that would have delivered this arsenal to the English. The war having again commenced Rivoire could not be transported, and has been retained in the castle of Lourdes. At the noise of the conspiracy which had just miscarried, other sentiments appear to have wakened in his heart, and he has written to the Grand Judge the following letter, in which, he not only confesses his crime, but even admits that he had a knowledge of the 3d Nivose.
Rivoire, officer of marine, to the Grand Judge. From the castle of Lourdes, 3d Germinal, year 12.
Devoted, since my infancy, to the service of my country; if I have erred in the means of performance, my intention have been pure, and my object has always been the happiness of my country. The First Consul has prospered by a far different method, and, though for the present his enemy and his victim, I find myself forced by my heart, to express my wishes for his success.
For a long, too long time I have sacrificed myself from a motive dictated by my heart rather than my head, and have served an ungrateful party, whose pusillanimous chiefs repose all their confidence in selfish and faithless ministers.
The victim, for the fifth time, of their fruitless attempts, determined to abandon a cause, the success of which I at length perceive would be the misfortune of France. I waited impatiently the termination of a war, which I regard as the only obstacle to the execution of my sentence, when I have learned with astonishment the discovery of the last conspiracy. You will excuse my sincerity, (I do not think it preposterous with you,) I would willingly have given whatever is dearest to me in the world, that the government under which I was born, had never been changed—but now, matured by age and cruel experience, I think that those who have not had courage to resume the helm of state, are incapable of directing it.
I have been condemned as agent of Georges; but when I came to Brest I was charged with orders direct from the prince—I came from London. Georges was only to aid me with his troops, when I asked him. We were to concert together about every thing. Brest was then unfurnished with troops; the workmen were not paid, a great part of the marines of the French squadron were of the insurgent country, and ancient Chouans. Spanish troops had debarked to serve in the place, and I could at least count on their neutrality. My project would have succeeded but for the delays, the indecision, and the absurd conduct of the Prince's counsel, which, instead of a delay of six weeks at most, retarded for five months the execution of a plan, the success of which promptitude alone could ensure. During this interval the troops assembled for the revolutionary army, and the changes which had taken place in the squadrons had determined me to renounce the project.
In a council held on this subject, different expedients were proposed, and among others the infernal machine, already tried by the Jacobins. I openly opposed it, not from zeal for the First Consul, (him I regard as an enemy,) but for the interest of the party. The idea of assassination attached to a similar project, had cast disgrace upon an honest man; besides I saw the resort would be entirely in the hands of the Jacobins, [always ready to seize a favorable opportunity] since we had no one sufficiently deserving in the armies, to put himself provisionally at the head of affairs.
It was then that I proposed to imitate the example of the Peloponnesian confederates under oath to Poniałowski, of assembling the principal chiefs at Paris: that we should mount horses, and proceed openly with arms in our hands, to attack the First Consul when he should go out with his escort; that such a stroke would win the hearts of men by its greatness and its courage; that if we were successful, those of us who should survive might be able to profit by the general astonishment to possess themselves of authority; and that, even though we should fail; we would be infinitely useful to the party by having set an example of devotedness to the cause, calculated to electrify the minds of Frenchmen.
A few days after, I learned the affair of the 3d Nivose. I could not refrain from testifying my dissatisfaction with Georges. At length fully persuaded, after what had happened me, of the weakness of the Prince, and entirely disgusted at so many abortive measures, I formed the resolution of abandoning forever all political intrigue. In consequence of this design, I went over to England to draw a little sum which I had there deposited, and to go thence to the United States [Holland] where I possessed some property, when I was arrested at Calais, and conducted to Paris. For three years I have been a prisoner, and have undergone two sentences. The foundation of my accusations is in part true—the details only are not. I have defended myself to the best of my ability.
If, when I was arrested at Calais, I had not been in my own opinion, in danger of death, I would willingly have given details and indications capable of preventing new attempts; but I chose rather to dissemble, lest it should be thought that fear had induced me to speak. Now that my fate is decided, that I neither expect nor fear anything farther, I have lightened my heart in giving you the above information.—Design to believe me, with respect, your very humble, and very obedient servant,
Signed, RIVOIRE.
DUNKIRK, 7th Germinal.
The sub-prefect of this town has just addressed to the mayors within his jurisdiction, a circular letter couched in these terms: "Citizen mayor my arrest of the 23d of last Ventose informed you of the perfidious project of England to introduce the plague upon the French territory, by caulking to be thrown upon our coast, bales of cotton or wool infected with that epidemical disorder. This infamous project has just been realized: five bales have been cast ashore in the Bay of Etaples near Boulogne. You will find underneath the order of the day of the army, of the 30th Ventose, which confirms the perfidy."
GENERAL STAFF—Order of the day.
The general in chief Soult has just announced to the gen. in chief of the camp of Bruges, that the English have at length begun to execute their infernal project of calking upon our coast, bales of cotton infected with the plague which they have sent for from the Levant. Five of those bales have been thrown into the bay of Etaples by English embarkations, under the protection of a frigate and two corvettes. Every precaution having been taken to prevent all communication with these objects, they were set fire to upon its being ascertained that they contained pestilential miasma. That the English government, which imagined the infernal machine of the 3d Nivose and all other assassinations attempted against the First Consul, should have conceived such an atrocity, hitherto unexampled among nations, is not in the least surprising; but that it should have found English soldiers, and officers to execute such a project must fill astonish every person not totally callous to the dictates of honor. The time is drawing near when we shall take full vengeance of so many atrocities and perfidious schemes. It cannot be too earnestly recommended to all the ports on the coast, from Breckens to Calais, to pay the strictest attention to the order of the day of the 23d of this month, which shall be read over at the head of each company for four days successively, and the execution of which is particularly recommended to the generals commanding upon the coast; they shall desire curates and mayors to communicate the projects and attempts of the English to the inhabitants the former from the pulpit, and the latter by publication.
The Chief of the general Staff. Signed, MATHIEU DUMAS.
SEMLIN, March 14. Some details of the Revolt of the Servians.
They assembled to the number of 7000 men, and set out in three divisions, one of which is commanded by Czerne Georges, the second by Glavater, and the third by an arch-priest. These three bodies are composed of young robust men, well furnished with arms and ammunition. They receive every day new reinforcements; 500 Bulgarians from the environs of Nissa lately joined them, and brought with them a large quantity of ammunition. The neighbouring Pachas of Belgrade have refused the Dey the succours which they demanded; one of them however, Pafwan Oglow, has sent them 300 Arnauts; but these men did not reach their destination; they were attacked upon their march by a body of Servians, who cut them to pieces; sixteen only were able to effect their escape, and have brought this alarming news to the Dey. The deputation consisting of the Greek bishop of Belgrade, four principal lords of the court of the Pacha, and fifteen others the most respectable Turks of the city, instructed to enter into negotiation with the deputies serving Hassan Palanka, has unexpectedly returned to Belgrade without having come to any termination. The rebels of Servia do not wish to listen to any proposition before the four Dey, authors of all the persecutions which have hitherto taken place, be delivered up to them alive.
VIENNA, March 21.
Since the 4th of this month, the French ambassador at our court has sent to the chancellor of state an official note, announcing the discovery of a conspiracy against the life of the First Consul. This note expressed the persuasion of the French government "that his majesty the Emperor would learn with satisfaction the discovery of a plot, the success of which would have produced the reestablishment of the ancient anarchy, and with it the destruction of all the traites so happily existing." In consequence of this communication he has sent an order to the Imperial ambassador at Paris, to solicitate the First Consul, in the name of his majesty, upon the discovery of this plot.
CARLSRUHE, March 20.
The following Electoral ordinance is, published in our Gazette of this day: "His most Serene Electoral highness immediately after the re-establishment of peace between the German Empire and the French Republic, issued an ordinance for his ancient possessions, declaring in the most precise and positive terms, that no farther residence in his territory could be granted to any persons who had emigrated or been deported from the French republic. The war which after ensued having occasioned these persons again to return into the country, his Serene Electoral highness availed himself of the first favorable moment to order their removal, under the date of the 20th of June, 1799. The renewal of peace again brought back into the country many of those persons who had served in the army of the Prince of Conde, and his Serene Electoral Highness saw himself obliged to issue a new ordinance, which still subsists, according
to which no Frenchman who has served in the army of the Prince of Conde, nor no French emigrant in general, can have permission to reside in the country in any manner than is enjoyed by every foreigner who passes through it, unless he had obtained this permission before the peace. From the operation of this ordinance, his Serene Electoral Highness has only excepted, by particular and express resolutions, such persons as could prove, by authentic documents, that they had obtained their release from the list of emigrants, or that they expected to obtain it very soon, who in consequence were justified in preferring a residence in the neighbourhood of France to any other; and who, on the other hand, might be considered as giving no cause of inquietude to the French government. Nothing disagreeable or prejudicial having hitherto resulted to the French government from these particular permissions, his Electoral Highness had thought proper, in consequence of the acquisitions of new territory which he made in December, 1802, to suffer all foreigners in general, and the French emigrants in particular, who were then in the country, to enjoy tacitly the residence which had been permitted them by the former governments; but at the same time he was finally resolved to put an end to this connivance conformable to the first articles of the treaty of Luneville, as soon as he should learn with certainty that the residence of any of these persons might become suspicious to the French government, and thereby dangerous to the tranquility of the Empire. The French government have since required his Serene Electoral Highness to arrest certain emigrants accused of being accomplices in a conspiracy against the constitution of the state, and having, at the same time, suddenly sent a military detachment to seize these individuals, the case is arrived when his Serene Electoral Highness must consider the French emigrants in his territory as dangerous to the tranquility of the Empire in general, and an object of suspicion to the French government; and he in consequence finds it necessary to renew, in all its latitude, the former ordinance, which forbids the French emigrants to reside in his territory, by extending it to all his old and new possessions; and at the same time referring to it all the unlimited or limited permissions of residence which may have been granted to the French emigrants by the former or present governments in such a manner, that all those who cannot immediately certify, in due form, that they have obtained their release from the list of emigrants, and have made submission to the present government of France, shall immediately quit the country; or if they will not depart voluntarily shall be sent out of the Electoral States within the space of 72 hours; and that with respect to those who think they are able to shew a claim to a further residence, a list of them must be sent, accompanied with a copy of their pretensions, to his Serene Electoral Highness, who will finally decide whether the permission of residence shall be continued to them or whether they shall in like manner be sent away. All superior and under bailiffs, all presidents of communes, and all officers of police, shall be personally answerable for the strict execution of this ordinance."
"Given in our Electoral Privy Council."
In the new project for a Penal and Criminal Code, about to be discussed by the tribunals of the French Republic, great changes are proposed.
According to this project, Pretors are to succeed the Presidents. The jurisdiction of each Pretor will contain several departments.—He is obliged to appear at Paris once in the year, to give an account of the judicial affairs of his district. This Magistrate is to be assisted by Pro-pretors and Suppleans. The Pro-pretors are to be attached to the tribunals of the first instance and are to form the criminal tribunals, in meeting once a year at a certain fixed period.
Crimes are to be punished with a more rigorous pain than death. The cessation of life is to be preceded by torments which augment the horror certain destruction inspires. For example, the parricide will have his right hand cut off before he loses his life, his corpse is to be built on the spot where he committed the crime, and over his grave is to be fixed a gibbet, with his name and the nature of his guilt. In certain cases, even the tortures which during the reign of Louis the XVIth were laid aside and proscribed, are again to be introduced; and for conspirators, when the death of the Chief Magistrate is plotted, the criminal is to be broken upon the wheel.

WASHINGTON CITY, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 6.
On Monday the annual election for members of the City Council was held; the following votes were given for the citizens elected, viz:
   For FIRST CHAMBER.     George Blagden, 196   Samuel H. Smith, 156   Joseph Bromley, 130   Samuel N. Smallwood, 129   Henry Herford, 128   Daniel Rapine, 123   Robert Alexander, 121   Cornelius Coningham, 118   Thomas Carpenter, 113  
Of the above citizens, eight were on the republican ticket, and are republicans.
   For SECOND CHAMBER.     William Bent, 205   William Woodward, 179   Alexander McCormick, 149   Charles Jones, 146   Nicholas King, 145   James C. King, 132   Joseph Hodgson, 131   John St. Clair, 124   George Andrews, 115

ARRIVED THE BRIG SUCCESS, Capt. McNair, in six days from Philadelphia.
New Hampshire Election.
This state is divided into 12 Senatorial districts, each of which chooses one Senator—it is now ascertained that 6 republican Senators are chosen, 5 federal, and in one district there has been no choice.
The whole number of votes for Senators, (exclusive of scattering) were 19,449, of which the republican candidates had 10,208—and the federal, 9,238—leaving consequently a republican majority of 970 votes. If this be not proof sufficient, that the majority of the inhabitants of the State are republican, we beg our readers to pursue the investigation still farther, and for this purpose to examine the following statement of Representatives chosen.
   Counties. Republican. Federal.     Rockingham, 31 10   Grafton, 6 10   Strafford, 11 14   Hillsborough, 22 15   Cooshe, 14 17   Total, 84 64  
Republican majority 20. Representatives, whose political principles are not fully ascertained, 14.
These returns, we presume, may be depended upon as accurate: they come from a respectable source. We expect to hear much of "democratic meetings, caucuses, post-riding intrigues," &c. This is no more than may be presumed. We did not expect that the feds would yield without struggle—their disappointment has been great, and their defeat complete—they have fallen, "never to rise again." But, however low they have fallen, we have reason to rejoice that this state will no longer stoop to their cunning, and be a prey to their ambition; in rising superior to tory craft, she shall once more be hailed by her sister states as worthy to hold a place among them; among those who are duly appreciating the advantages, and enjoying the benefits of freedom, ease and plenty.

HARTFORD, THURSDAY May 31.
Amendment to the Constitution.
On Wednesday the 23d inst. the following Resolution was introduced into the House of Representatives of this state, by Mr. SPALDING.
"Whereas the eighth Congress of the United States, at their first session, begun and held at the City of Washington, in the Territory of Columbia, on Monday the 17th day of October, 1803, two thirds of both Houses concurring, passed a resolution proposing an amendment to the Constitution of the United States, which resolution is in the following words, viz.
[Here follows the resolution as passed by both houses of Congress, which was published in our paper of the 19th January last.]
Resolved, That the said amendment be ratified on the part of this state, to be valid to all intents and purposes as a part of the Constitution of the United States, when ratified by the Legislature of three fourths of the several states."
On the reading of which a debate ensued and continued about two hours. The consideration of the resolution was then postponed to the next day in the afternoon, when a very animated debate arose which lasted five hours—immediately after which the question on the resolution was taken by Yeas and Nays—Yeas 77—Nays 115.—Every republican

member who was present voted in favor of the resolution, but not one federalist. By referring to the Roll of the House of Representatives in our last paper, any person may find how the votes stood, as all the republicans are designated with a star. Mr. Howell, of Colebrook, a republican, was absent by reason of illness.
LOUISVILLE, (Geo.) May 16.
On Monday last the Legislature of Georgia met at this place, agreeably to its Excellency the Governor's Proclamation of the 4th ult.
The House of Representatives have passed the Bill, ratifying the proposed amendment to the Constitution of the United States—we believe, unanimously; and have also, unanimously voted an address to his Excellency the Governor to remove from office Jabez Bowen, Judge of the Superior Court of the Eastern District of this State, for conduct, in his official capacity, highly criminal, and derogatory to the duties of a judge. The foregoing are now before the Senate.
His Excellency Governor MILLEDGE'S communication to both branches of the Legislature, Gentlemen of the Senate and of the House of Representatives,
You will find in the packet herewith transmitted, a copy of a letter from the President of the United States, and of an article of amendment, proposed by Congress, to the Federal Constitution, in regard to the mode of electing the President and Vice-President.
The ratification of the Legislature of three fourths of the several States, being required to make this amendment a part of the constitution, and the time pointed out by law for the annual meeting of the general assembly of this State, being at so distant a day, that the decision of our legislature could not be had sufficiently soon to meet the ensuing election, for President and Vice President, I was induced to convene you for the purpose of presenting it for your consideration.
Independent of the weight naturally attached to an amendment adopted by two thirds of the national representation, you receive this with an additional circumstance highly favorable to its merits—he decided sanction of a majority of the state legislatures in the union.
On this subject the public mind having been long since amply informed, it is unnecessary for me to enter into an enlarged view, either as to its eligibility, tendency or effect—I shall, therefore, without further remarks, leave this important question to your determination, not doubting but that it will be such as will promote the happiness of our common country.
JOHN MILLEDGE. State House, Louisville, 14th May, 1804.
The acquisition of Louisiana has been celebrated at Charleston, S. C. on which occasion an oration was pronounced by Dr. Ramsay. Of the orator the City Gazette observes,
"In the delivery he was impressively distinct; the style simple and perspicuous; the geographical description of the country correct and compendious. He combated in succession the objections, which had been made in the National legislature, and in our public prints; and so clearly pointed out the numerous and great advantages, which our country would derive from the attainment of the territory, as scarcely to leave a military influence among the audience, to whom conviction of its importance was not carried home, information and pleasure received—Throughout it was remarkable for its moderation; all republicans must feel themselves indebted to him, for the able manner in which he executed the task imposed upon him."
A correspondent promises to forward a copy of the oration, which is in the press, as soon as it shall be published, from the perusal of which we promise ourselves much pleasure.
DIED.
On the 28th ult. MR. JOHN BURCHAN of Washington city leaving a sorrowful aged mother and other relatives to mourn their loss. His remains were attended the next day by numerous friends and neighbors to the Presbyterian new burying ground in George Town where he was interred. Panegyric on the deceased is perhaps often injudiciously applied and thereby loses the desired effect, it would however be but just in this case to say that Mr. Burchan was a dutiful and affectionate son, and that he discharged the other duties of domestic and social life with propriety and ease. He was a member of the Baptist church in this place who feel with sorrow his removal from them. He died of a lingering illness through the whole of which he manifested a christian resignation being possessed of
the blessed hope of a glorious immortality, founded on a clear and scriptural evidence of his interest in the divine Saviour.
Heaven's waits not the last moment; owns her friends, On this side death; and points them out to men. YOUNG.
COMMUNICATION.
It is with some interest that I have learned from the Baron Humboldt, who has been five years travelling through South America, that among other curious animal remains, he has (and he is the first that has) discovered several specimens of the Mammoth, perfectly distinguished by the great carnivorous teeth. He has found them as far as latitude 33 south, but always on the highest mountains, which the Baron takes to be satisfactory proof that this Great Unknown must have been, as has been generally supposed, the inhabitant of a cold climate. In North America none of these bones have ever been found but in comparatively low situations; this is to be expected of an animal, which in a cold climate would inhabit the valleys, and in a warm one would seek the cold retreats of the mountains.
REMBRANDT PEALE.
PHILADELPHIA, May 30th, A gentleman passenger in the Diana, arrived this morning, informs that it was reported at Antwerp, that Gen. Pichegru had been guillotined.
The London Star of the 11th of April, says, the murder of the duke d'Enghien by the French tyrant must excite the general indignation of Europe. A private letter received by the mail of yesterday from Hamburg, says, the news of this atrocious deed excited there, among people of every opinion in politics, a sensation of indignation and horror which no language can describe. "The indecent haste," says the writer with which the sentence was executed, is of itself, in the minds of all reasonable people, a sufficient proof that it was unjust. Not to mention the violation of the rights of a neutral territory, it is sufficiently clear, that the French government having long ago deprived the whole family of their sovereign rights of citizens, no individual of that family can be condemned by a law, which is posterior to this deprivation, and made against French citizens alone. By the same rule they could and ought to shoot every Englishman or person of any other nation whatever, whom they took in arms against France, or who even, at any time in his life, had ever been concerned in the formation or execution of any plan whatever, of the nature of those mentioned in the act of accusation against the duke: they might as justly require all foreign powers to deliver up to them all Englishmen, now residing in their territory, who are or ever have been agents of the English government, or have borne arms against France, or might even send troops, as many as they should think necessary to arrest all such persons, and conduct them to Paris to be murdered, after a mock trial of a few hours. The proceeding, with regard to the Prince, as impolitic as it is unjust, is to be regarded as an ebullition of the savage rage of slaves, who have taken the places of their masters: of men, disappointed in the effect of their gasconading threats, and seizing the first opportunity of satiating with security the transports of their impotent fury. Not any part the prince may or may not have had in the conspiracy (if ever it existed), but the rage of Bonaparte at seeing all his threats against England despised, his vaunted preparations useless, and himself in the disagreeable alternative of suffering the contempt of Europe, or undertaking the expedition which he now sees must fall, has brought the Prince to this untimely death."
Another letter, received by a commercial house in the city, desires them not to ship some coffee that had been ordered for a Danish port, as it was very generally believed that in a few days a French force would occupy Tonningen, and all the other Danish ports in that neighborhood.

For the National Intelligencer.
Mr. Bentham in his treatises on legislation has a chapter entitled.
"To avoid furnishing encouragement to crimes", and commences it as follows—to say that a government ought not to give recompences for crimes, that it ought not to enfeeble moral and religious sentiments in cases where they are useful, is a maxim which would appear too simple to require proofs. Yet it is very frequently forgotten. I could give very striking examples of it, but the more striking they are, the less necessary is it to develop them, it is preferable to dwell upon those cases where this maxim is violated in a less manifest manner.
18. The injudicious detention of property, &c.
If the law suffers a man unjustly to withhold the property of another, and to benefit himself by the delay of payment, it becomes an accomplice in this wrong. The cases in which the English law is faulty in this respect are innumerable. In many cases a debtor has only to refuse payment till his death to avoid paying the principal of his debt, in many others he may by delays, free himself from the interest, and he can always hold back the capital for a long time and thus make [to use the expression] a forced loan at common interest.
To stop this sort of iniquity it ought to be established.
1st. That in cases of responsibility on lands the death of one or other of the parties should not occasion any change.
2. That interest should commence from the beginning of the obligation.
3. That the obligation should commence not at the liquidation of the damage, but at the period when the damage commenced.
4. That the interest of the obligation should be above the legal interest.
These means are very simple yet how happens it that they yet occur to be suggested? Those who will ask this question know not the influence of habit, indolence indifference to the public good, and bigotry of the law, without including personal interest and the esprit de corps."
In America more than in any other country, the creditor is kept out of his money by legal delays, as the legal interest of money is less than the value of it in bank stock and in almost every speculation—the experiences of the law are less in America than in Great Britain, and thus a debtor benefits more by withholding payment.
The value of money in America may be calculated at 9 per cent. Suppose A lends to B the sum of 5000 dollars for one year, at 6 per cent interest, B. by non-payment gains as follows by every years detention.
DOLLARS. 1st year, the difference between nine and six 300 2nd year, Do. 303 and the interest on 600 dolls. 54 and thus every years delay encreases his benefit. When A. the creditor recovers after a long troublesome expensive lawsuit he receives only his principal, and simple interest, from which law expenses are deducted and thus suffers most unjustly for an act of kindness.
If the creditor had justice rendered him, more persons would lend money to land holders for agricultural improvements, and punctuality and honesty amongst debtors would become as remarkable as the reverse is now notorious. It is justly observed by Montesquieu that the interest of money is low in proportion to the security of payment and the facility of speedy recovery. It is an almost universal maxim in America to try to obtain loans, and to withhold payment as long as possible, as the laws hold forth a benefit and encourage the fraudulent principle. Three fourths of the causes in the court have judgment confessed when all the delays and modes of procrastination have been resorted to.
In the District of Columbia an experiment might be made, authorizing creditors to receive compound interest on loans withheld after they are due. Such an equitable law would encourage many to aid honest enterprising men, and thus promote buildings, commerce and manufactures. At present no one can obtain a loan as recovery is so doubtful and so dilatory. Even the borrower who sets out with fair intentions is seduced by example and encouragement of the law to postpone payment at the period when his debt is due. The effect of the law proposed would inevitably lower the rate of interest as monied men would more readily lend when supported by the law in their recovery of just demands.
The author from whom I quoted at the commencement of this letter has in his much admired defence of Usury, the following observations on compound interest, "If the borrower pays the interest at the day, if he performs that engagement to which the law pretends, to oblige him to conform; the lender who receives that interest may expend it or receive compound interest by lending it out again, he expects to receive it at the day, or what meant
the engagement? If he fails of receiving it, he is a loser—The borrower by paying it at the day is no loser—if he does not pay it at the day, he is so much the gainer—a pain of disappointment takes place in the case of the one, while no such pain takes place in the case of the other—The cause of him whose consented to be caught gain, is thus preferred to that of him whose contention is to avoid a loss contrary to the reasonable maxim of that branch of the common law which has acquired the name of Equity. The gain which the law in its tenderness thus bestows on the defaulter is an encouragement; a reward which it holds out for breach of faith, for negligence and iniquity—The loss which it throws on the forbearing lender, is a punishment which it inflicts on him for his forbearance, the power which it gives him of avoiding that loss, by prosecuting the borrower on the instant of failure, is thus converted into a reward which it holds out to him for his hard heartedness and rigor."
