SERIOUS CONSIDERATIONS ADDRESSED TO ALL SINCERE FEDERALISTS.
No. III.
Fellow Citizens,
The Second great object of the constitution was to establish justice.
This branch of our inquiry, for more correct apprehension, may be divided into two parts. The first relating to the establishment of judicatory, in which justice between man and man may be asserted and had; the second relating to certain acts of the government itself on specific points, in which it relied with the government alone, without the intervention of any other agency, to do justice to certain descriptions of citizens, viz. the public creditors.
In our examination, for the purpose of a fairer and more distinct discussion of every part of the subject, we shall state verbatim the words of the constitution, without the minutiae of explanation. As several articles which relate to more than one of the leading objects of inquiry, some repetition will be unavoidable; but this is considered as preferable to any other mode which might be liable to the imputation of mutilation or supposition. Congress are directed, in order to establish justice, to erect certain courts.
On this point the Constitution says, "ARTICLE III."
"Sec. 1. The judicial power of the United States shall be vested in one supreme court, and in such inferior courts as the Congress may, from time to time, ordain and establish. The judges, both of the supreme and inferior courts, shall hold their offices during good behaviour, and shall, at stated times, receive for their services, a compensation, which shall not be diminished during their continuance in office."
"Sec. 2. The judicial power shall extend to all cases in law and equity, arising under this constitution, the laws of the United States, and treaties made, or which shall be made, under their authority; to all cases affecting ambassadors, other public ministers and consuls; to all cases of admiralty and maritime jurisdiction; to controversies between two or more states, between citizens of different states, between citizens of the same state claiming lands under grants of different states, and between a state, or the citizens thereof, and foreign states, citizens or subjects."
"In all cases affecting ambassadors, other public ministers and consuls, and those in which a state shall be party, the supreme court shall have original jurisdiction. In all the other cases before mentioned, the supreme court shall have appellate jurisdiction, both as to law and fact, with such exceptions, and under such regulations as the congress shall make."
"The trial of all crimes, except in cases of impeachment, shall be by jury; & such trial shall be held in the state where the said crimes shall have been committed; but when not committed within any state, the trial shall be at such place or places as the congress may by law have directed."
"Sec. 3. Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying war against them, or in adhering to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort. No person shall be convicted of treason unless on the testimony of two witnesses to the same overt act, or on confession in open court."
"The congress shall have power to declare the punishment of treason, but no attainder of treason shall work corruption of blood, or forfeiture, except during the life of the person attained."
"In the 1st art. 8th sec. it is declared that "Congress shall have power" to establish a uniform rule of naturalization, and uniform laws on the subject of bankruptcies throughout the United States." Also—"To constitute tribunals inferior to the supreme court."
"Art. IV. Sec. 2. "A person charged in any state with treason, felony, or other crime, who shall flee from justice, and be found in another state, shall, on demand of the executive authority of the state from which he fled, be delivered up, to be removed to the state having jurisdiction of the crime."
All the foregoing powers either did, or were deemed by the early congress to, require the passage of laws carrying them into effect. Those laws were accordingly passed; and they have to this day remained unimpaired. In every succeeding congress some small alterations have been made, which have been considered as improvements of the general system; but these, so far from being considered as infractive of the letter or spirit of the constitution, have, in general, been so many pledges of a disposition to preserve the legal investitures of judicial power, and also to many attestations of a disposition to perfect the system, by the precepts of experience, thereby rendering it more competent to the purposes for which it was established, and of course more worthy of popular favor and respect.
A TRUE FEDERALIST.
FROM THE AURORA.
At a time when the republicans in a majority of the eastern, in all of the southern, and with but one exception in the middle states, are exciting on their success, they needfully feel interested in the situation of that one state whose affairs have assumed a gloomy aspect. New-Jersey, among the first of those states which arose from the slumber in which they had, inexcusably and unfortunately, slept at the period of the presidency of Mr. Adams, whose citizens vied with their neighbours of Pennsylvania in the necessary work of reformation, has within the last few weeks presented a distressing picture of what is to be expected from a party which consists but ever been at variance with their professions.

In New-Jersey, among the first of those states which arose from the slumber in which they had, inexcusably and unfortunately, slept at the period of the presidency of Mr. Adams, whose citizens vied with their neighbours of Pennsylvania in the necessary work of reformation, has within the last few weeks presented a distressing picture of what is to be expected from a party which consists but ever been at variance with their professions.
From this state of depression the republicans arose as suddenly as they before had been unmeritoriously persecuted, and the example of this state, alive in the right of elective franchise, was soon successfully followed by New-Jersey—the remotest parts, the independent farmer and the industrious mechanic were equally excited to the fury of party zealots, and the expression of an opinion on political subjects was seldom ventured by the republicans, through the lens of denunciation as traitors to their country.
This restoration of the old system has been pronounced unconstitutional. But the charge would never have been made but from party animosity, from the hope of gaining party advantage by working on the prejudices of the people. The measure has been demonstrated in abstract argument to be constitutional. But what to the plain strong sense of an unprejudiced mind, flows as to a river in the most irrefragable manner, is the undoubted exercise of the same power, under like circumstances, by most of the states in the Union. Cases precisely analogous are to be found in the statute books of Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, Maryland, and Virginia, which occurred before the rage of party passions, and which therefore furnish the strongest possible attestation to the constitutionality of the power.
Whatever doubts, therefore, may be entertained of the expediency of this measure, none ought to be entertained of its constitutionality.
But, granting that there exists such doubts, as to the expediency of this measure, there is no end of political controversy, upon every disputed point? Are not the constituted authorities to decide? Have they not decided? Does not the decision express unequivocally the opinion of the nation? Can a doubt be entertained of this when it is considered that the law embraced the sanction of the President, himself the representative of the whole nation; of the Senate, the representative of the states; and of nearly two-thirds of the House of Representatives, the representatives of the people? The majority have spoken in the audible language of a law, and the minority must obey. Such is the nature of our government. It is the only delicate feature it contains.
This important subject then stands thus. The republicans have restored, with but little variation, what the federalists found. Ought not both sides, right not the nation to be satisfied with this?
Examine all the provisions of the Constitution above recited, on this subject, and you will find that the present administration have done nothing of the least consequence except that which has been just stated. They might have done much more. Had their object been to frustrate the administration of justice, they might have repealed many, nay, most of the material provisions of the judicial code. They have not repealed one. The rights of every description of citizens remain unviolated, untouched.
Legislature of New-Jersey, to other members of the same house, viewed in all its circumstances, tendencies, and consequences, is of a nature the most singularly extraordinary that ever came within the reach of my observation, and exhibits a phenomenon in legislation I trust no where to be found in the annals of modern governments. The interesting matter therein contained, added to the respectable characters from whom it was received, has induced me to communicate it to all those gentlemen for whom it was intended, and their uniform answers have been, that they will not enter into any discussion out of doors, relative to their duty in either house. That acting under the obligations of an oath of office, they will in their respective places do what their judgment and conscience shall respectively enforce, as for the good of the state.
They most sincerely lament a discordance in opinion on any matter that has become the subject of their legislative deliberations; that, however, they possess too good an opinion of the understanding of the citizens of New-Jersey, to entertain for a moment an idea that a division in our councils will disturb the tranquility of the state, nor can they conceive that the failure on the first vote to choose a governor and senator, augurs a new alarming crisis in our public affairs; but even if it does, that the members of the two houses of the legislature in joint meeting, convened, are the constitutional conferees to adjust any misunderstanding that may obstruct a choice on a subsequent vote. That with respect to any laws which the general interest of the state may require to be enacted, should the two houses disagree, a conference of a committee of both houses, held in the presence of the remaining members, is in their opinion the most expedient mode that can be adopted to reconcile discordant opinions, or correct any improper sentiments that may arise from the want of information, or any other cause, have been imbibed.
The idea of giving and taking in the affairs of the legislature, is repugnant to what they conceive a conscientious regard to their duties requires of them, and that a compliance with the wishes of your constituents, and your affiliated friends on that head, would in their opinion be introducing, and in some degree sanctioning a practice more injurious in its consequences to the state, than any evil it can possibly suffer from the temporary vacancies of those offices which have been unsuccessful in our attempt to fill.
The phraseology of the communication is also a subject of considerable surprise and alarm to them. They do not comprehend what is meant by "opposition interest," and the like; they know of no other interest, but the state, and the union; they are not the legislators of a part but the whole. That because, in the exercise of a power confided to them by the constitution, they have in a particular point, though different from you, it does not follow, they say, that a like difference will arise on every, or any other point that may become the subject of legislative attention. They consider every question, attending on its own abstract merits, and no farther depending on any other question, than what shall arise from the natural or incidental connection between them. They are no man to depart from a line of conduct dictated to him by his conscience, nor will they suffer any inroads to be made on their own conscience, nor can they apprehend any great inconvenience can ensue to the state, even should another attempt to choose a governor and senator prove unsuccessful; the vice-president of the council being vested with the executive and other powers, in ordinary cases exercised by the governor, and in the usual course of constitutional proceedings a senator will not be wanted until after the meeting of the next legislature, and should an extraordinary case happen, the executive is fully empowered by the constitution to fill the vacancy during the recess of the legislature.
"To the foregoing I beg leave to subscribe a few observations of my own. It certainly must afford to every thinking mind matter for serious reflection, and sincere concern, that an alienation, at once so respectable and powerful, should have been formed in the very vital of
the body politic, constituting an imperium in imperio ; that this alienation should have all the properties of an organized body, deliberative and executive, and entered into under the signatures of the contracting parties, and that it should have for its basis determinate, acting union and controlling, almost every function, prescribed by the constitution to the various departments of government, extending even to the suffrages of one fellow-citizen speaking in language at once imperative and preceptive, the whole tending to impair on the mind of the American nation, that the people of New-Jersey are placed in hostile array under two separate banners. You will pardon me, gentleman, when I request of you to peruse inquiringly your views whether you have not wrought your minds into a situation no way corresponding to the real feeling and sentiments of the citizens of the state—can it be possible that the people of New-Jersey, who a few years ago, so nobly fought hand in hand with their sires, their children, and their wives, from the debilitating sword of a barbarous enemy, should now be ready to marshal themselves in hostile ranks against each other, on a trifling dispute about the appointment of a few officers? If my actual information did not contradict the fact, my knowledge of the character of my fellow citizens would.
Be advised gentlemen, as you value the safety and prosperity of the state hitherto so happily secured by the constitutional operation of the government, to desist from the measures you have taken—desist the fatal instrument by which you are afflicting together—cut asunder the knot that ties you to any other interest, but that of the whole, and cheerly restore to New-Jersey her rightful delegates. Let the whole of this transaction be buried in oblivion, the friendly tomb of error, that we may continue to hail each other as brethren of the same family, and display our accommodating dispositions on the floor of the respective houses to which we belong, and in the joint assembly of both, constitutionally convened. Then still we be treading in the paths marked out to us by the authority under which we derive our power to act, and in doing that, should we still of discord, and evil happen to the state thereby, yet we shall return to our constituents, with this confounding reflection, that the fault is not our own."
"I have the honor to be with the highest respect and esteem, gentlemen, Your very humble servant, WILLIAM S. PENNINGTON, Trenton, 15th November 1802."

Foreign Intelligence.
LONDON, October 9.
No advices from the continent reached town yesterday; but something important, as well from Switzerland as from Germany, may now daily be expected. The brave Helveticans, animated with a becoming spirit of independence, are not expected to yield with tameness their long established rights, or to endure with patience the degrading yoke of Gallic domination. Would there were a reasonable prospect of their exertions being crowned with success they deserve; but this unhappily is not the case. Their force, it is true, continues to receive almost daily additions to its strength, and it is even said, that it amounts already to little short of 20,000 men. These, inheriting the patriotic virtues of their forefathers, may for a while, perhaps, be able to resist the encroachments so cruelly threatened by France; but opposed by the overwhelming legions of that power, their gallant efforts cannot be expected to prove of ultimate avail. One hope only remains in our mind. The indignation excited against the First Consul on the occasion, is as general as it is just; in his own capital even, the unmerited disapprobation of his conduct is said to be expressed; and seeing all this, a sense of policy, if not justice, may induce him to forego his tyrannical intentions.
The reconciliation of Moreau and of Bonaparte is attributed, in some letters from Paris, to a design of employing the former in the case of a new war breaking out in Germany. This is the most likely and most plausible suggestion. The concession made by the First Consul, we are well assured, that no such object is in view. The idea of a new war directly to be waged in Germany, is scouted by every politician in France. But should such an event take place, every person, who is even superficially acquainted with the policies of the Tuileries, must know, that Moreau could not stand the smallest chance of being nominated to such a command.
Accounts from Leghorn, by the last Dutch mail, mention that three large corsairs had been destroyed by some Dutch ships of war, after a long engagement, in which the greatest part of the Moors were killed and wounded.
FROM FRENCH PAPERS.
Bonaparte, First Consul of the French Republic and President of the Italian Republic, decrees.
1. Artillery, small arms, and warlike ammunition, shall be ceded out of those now existing in the Italian Republic.
2. The artillery now in those places belongs to the Italian Republic, to the amount of 4,000,000 of livres.
3. The minister at war of the Italian Republic shall appoint an officer of artillery to superintend the dismantling, draw up inventories, and make estimates, in concert with an officer of the French artillery, whom the minister at war of the French Republic shall appoint.
4. All the pieces of artillery which shall be ceded to the Italian Republic shall be recast to the calibre of 6, 12, 18, and 24lb; the mortars to 8 and 10 inches; and the howitzers to 3 inches 6 lines, in the course of the year 11.
5. The minister at war of the Italian Republic shall cause two bridges of boats to be constructed, one for the passage of the Po, and the other for the Oglio and the Adige.
6. Fifty thousand muskets, two thousand pair of pistols, and two thousand carbines, shall be made in the course of the year 11.
7. There shall be an armoury at Mantua, capable of containing 10,000 muskets; and at Pizzighettone, one of 15,000.
8. The minister at war of the Italian Republic is charged with the execution of the present decree.
(Signed) BONAPARTE.
LONDON, October 9.
The Courier de Londres of last night, under the head of Paris, Oct. 4, contains the following articles:—
"Every time the government has discussed any project which prudence has afterwards forced it to abandon, it has always taken care to contradict in the official journals whatever transpired to the public, and to attribute such reports to malevolence and the absurdity of conjectures. It has thus acted with regard to the plan so long in meditation of giving to M. Lucien the war and marine departments, to M. Joseph the internal and external, and to M. Talleyrand the finances. A pretty good part of the family was included in this arrangement, perfectly conformable to the wishes of centralization of the First Consul. But when it was seen that it was vehemently disapproved of even by men the most fervile and devoted, it was thought proper to suspend it. The First Consul has not thought it expedient to despise these murmurs, though with respect to those around him he acts nearly upon the model of Louis XIV. of whom Luvois and Racine said, "he killed by a word or a look."
"The legion of honour appears to be forgotten, but they are preparing in silence the organization of its head. It seems probable that every chief of a Corps will have a considerable establishment. They are, however, extremely embarrassed in making the choice. Military men who are known may be dangerous, and obscure men will discredit the institution. In the mean time the wants of the generals and other officers are provided on credit. They purchase lands for which the government is to pay. The usual purchase money is 500,000 francs. There is but one who appears to have been overlooked, but it is said he will also have an establishment."
"It does not appear that the visit general Moreau made at Montfontaine has produced any other result than that of giving to M. Joseph Bonaparte a mark of consideration. He is in effect the most modest of the family, and he has himself constantly endeavoured to make the general forget the state of disgrace in which he was left."
"There exists between the Consul and Moreau so great an opposition of character, that it can never be thought they will be sincerely reconciled. Moreau will not become a courtizan to please Bonaparte, and the latter will never consent, in order to conciliate Moreau, to assume a tone of familiarity towards him, which would oblige him, in the face of the whole court, to descend from the pedestal, before which he loves to see every one prostrated. The endeavours at conciliation which have lately been made, are attributed to the probability of an approaching war in Germany, in which Moreau would be necessary; but it has at last been determined not to employ him, whatever may be the consequence, and the more so as the war no longer appears probable, and two generals, known and beloved as soldiers, have demanded employment if it should take place."
"The departure for St. Cloud has created an agreeable sensation, and has given to our conversation a shade of liberty and independence. It seems that power presses less upon us because its centre is some leagues distant, and that there is less danger of expressing one's thoughts, because Touche no longer has the direction of the system of espionage. The change within these few days is very sensible; epigrams, secret anecdotes, malicious conjectures, circulate without any obstacle. But the government which calculates the strength which a freedom so much to our taste imparts to public opinion, will not delay denying it, and resuming that arbitrary menacing tone which can alone repress it. Arrests are less frequent; but this repose, in the bosom of which it is wished our remembrance and our foresight may be lulled, leaves the grand judge full liberty to organize his functions, and it is that the First Consul wishes."
TUNIS.
Leisseignes, Rear-Admiral, to the Minister of Marine and the colonies.
Toulon, Sept. 26.
"Citizen Minister, I had the honor to transmit to you the result of my operations at Algiers. This letter contains my operations at Tunis."
The admiral proceeds to give an account of his voyage to Tunis, where he arrived on the 26th of August, and went ashore on the 29th. On the next day he was introduced to the Bey. The following is the account of his interview:—
"At nine in the morning, accompanied by the commissary-general, the captains, my officers, and the French merchants, I went in ceremony to Barde (the place of the Bey's residence, about a league from Tunis). As soon as I was introduced to the Bey with my suit, I advanced to him and took him by the hand, which he pressed very affectionately."
"Having taken a place by his side, I said to him, 'that the First Consul had ordered me to anchor in the harbor of Tunis, in order that I might make known to him, that he had been informed that the Christian slaves who were in the galleys were ill-treated; that several had perished with misery and by the blows they had received; that he would have me acquaint him that, being at peace with the Neapolitan and other powers of the Mediterranean, he desired that, if he continued to make Christian slaves, he would ensure subsistence to them, that they should be treated as prisoners of war, and that care should be taken not to use them ill; that several slaves had been made by his corsairs four years ago, in a descent upon Isle St. Pierre; that these unhappy Sardinians had been taken in the house of the agent of the French Republic; that he expected him to release them immediately; that, for the rest, he desired the ancient commercial relations to be renewed between Africa and the French coast, and that he hoped he would protect our commerce, and prohibit its corsairs from insulting the French flag and the flag of the Italian Republic.'
"The Bey replied that he was much flattered by the desire the First Consul had to live upon amicable terms with the Regency; that it was his own greatest desire to do the same, and that what the First Consul wished being just and rea-
sonable, he adhered to it with great willingness; that, for the rest, he was going to send to Paris an embassy which should be charged to treat with him, and to compliment him on his prosperity."
"He then ordered coffee to be served, and took it with us (which is the mark of the greatest distinction and politeness) that the prince can shew in audience."
"A few moments after I quitted the Bey, and went with my suite to the prime minister's who had requested me to do him that honor. He received us in a very friendly manner, had coffee served, and ordering some arms to be brought which he used, he presented me with a very fine scymetar, mounted with gold, which he requested me to accept as a mark of friendship."
"Upon my return to the commissary general's, I received a visit from the charges d'Affaires of England, Holland, Spain, Denmark, Sweden and the United States."
"On the next day, accompanied by citizen Devoire, I returned to the different charges d'affaires, as well as to the French merchants, the visit they had paid me."
The admiral proceeds to give an account of his having visited and dined with the prime minister, to whom he gave in return a splendid dinner on board his ship, and whom he presented some brocades of the manufacture of Lyons.
On the 11th of September he had another interview with the Bey.
"As soon as I arrived at the Bey's I renewed the demand I had made in our former interview. I demanded the release of twenty-two individuals, whose mothers were born in Corsica, and which he granted with some difficulty, making complaints with respect to the slaves, whose escape our sailors had occasioned. I made no difficulty in proposing to him the payment of the ransom of all the individuals whose escape had been produced by our sailors."
"It was in this audience that the Bey told me that meaning to send an ambassador to congratulate the First Consul on his appointment to the consulate for life, he desired I would give him a passage on board my ship. He added, that he should be much flattered by my doing him the honor to accompany him to Paris. I acquiesced in the demand, and promised to do every thing to his satisfaction that depended upon me. We separated very well contented with each other."
"On the 15th of Sept. I went to Barde to take leave of the Bey. After some compliments on his part, he renewed his entreaty with respect to his ambassador, and I took leave, loaded with marks of friendship and esteem."
The admiral, after mentioning the arrival of the released slaves, the presents destined for the First Consul, and of the Tunisian ambassador, says, that he set sail on the 20th September, and arrived on the 27th at Toulon. He adds, that there were not at Tunis, nor in the environs, any symptoms of the plague, nor any contagious disorder, and that he had not lost a man.
He annexes to his letter a list of the slaves released by the Dey of Algiers, and on board of his division; and of the slaves who had taken refuge in his ships at Algiers and Tunis. He annexes also a list of the Tunisian ambassador's suite, and of the presents destined for the First Consul. [These presents were enumerated in yesterday's Gazette.]
HELVETIC REPUBLIC.
Convention concluded between the Municipality of Zurich and the Commissary of the Helvetic Government.
Different circumstances having given rise to hostilities between the Helvetic troops and the inhabitants of the city of Zurich, citizen May, commissary of government, in virtue of his full powers, has taken upon himself the office of mediator; and has, in consequence, agreed upon the following convention with the municipality of the city:
Art. 1. The commissary of government, May, resigns, in full confidence, to the townsmen of Zurich, the military service of that city, and engages that he will establish no garrison there, but will personally repair thither as the chief place of the Canton, bringing along with him only a few pieces of ordnance.
2. All past proceedings shall be buried in oblivion. All the inhabitants of Zurich, as well as all the inhabitants of Helvetia, who have taken part in the late events, are discharged from all responsibility. Consequently all those who on either side have been made prisoners, or arrested by the civil or military power, shall be instantly set at liberty, if there be no other accusation against them.
3. Immediately after the signing of the present Convention the speediest means will be taken to put an end to all hostile proceedings.

BERNE, Sept. 21.
At 8 o'clock in the evening of the
8th. M. Watterville arrived here, wearing in his hat the red and black cockades. He waited immediately on M. Dolder, and the following convention was settled between them:
"1. A suspension of arms for 24 hours."
"2. In that space of time, that which assumes the name of the government shall, with all its troops, leave the city. The Bernese army shall furnish the necessary accommodations for the removal of the said government to Lausanne."
This convention was concluded in consequence of an obstinate action, fought with much bloodshed, immediately before the walls of Berne. The army commanded by Messrs Watterville, D'Erlach, and Ellinger, was composed of peasants from Argovia, Soleure, Oberland, Petit Lac, Nidwald, and Arberg. Dolder's troops fired from the ramparts, and the peasants threw some cannon balls into the town, which damaged nothing but the town-house. Mr. Ellinger was introduced to a parley, with his eyes under a bandage. No agreement could be effected, and the attack was renewed. After a severe and warmly sustained combat at one of the gates, the usurpers proposed to capitulate. It is doubtful whether they may find a gracious reception at Lausanne. The whole Pays de Vaud is in commotion: the peasants are up in arms—but whether to support the revolutionary cause, we know not.
General Adermatt, abruptly called by the new exiled government from Zurich, left to the townsmen his heavy artillery. He proceeds by forced marches towards Lausanne. But he is pursued by Reding; he is between the army which has conquered at Berne, and that of the small Cantons; and unless he be comprehended in the capitulation, his troops will be entirely dispersed.
M. de Watterville was, on the 29th named commander in chief, and paid a visit to the French minister Verninac, who gave him a very obliging reception. The Bear and the colours of Berne are already restored to their wonted places. Friburg has surrendered to the peasant army. Soleure likewise surrendered on the 17th. All Switzerland, except the Pays de Vaud, will soon enjoy the renovated authority of its ancient constitution. The two demi-brigades promised by Bonaparte are to come from Italy, and cannot arrive within less than fifteen days. In the mean time all will be over; and it is expected that France will not then think its interposition necessary.
The plan for a new settlement is handed about, and seems to be approved by the majority.
LAUSANNE, Sept. 21.
Yesterday morning about two o'clock the post-office was surrounded by a multitude of people, waiting the arrival of the courier from Berne. They were soon informed of the events which had occurred in that city. Orders were immediately given to the municipality to prepare accommodations for the members of the government, and to have a guard at their command. At 6 in the evening a discharge of twelve pieces of cannon announced the entrance of the Government into our city.
The Helvetic troops are assembling at Morat Payerne and its environs.
The French minister likewise left Berne on the 19th, and arrived here yesterday evening.
The following account has been published by the Prefects of the proceedings at Berne:
"The Government has acquainted the National Prefects, that in the evening of the 18th, after a cannonade of about an hour, which did very little mischief, citizen Gaudard commander in chief of the Helvetic troops at Berne, concluded, after receiving authority to that effect, with the leader of the insurgents in the environs of that city, the convention subscribed; in consequence of which the members of the Government resolved to remove to Lausanne, with a part of those in the employment of Government."
CONVENTION.
The commander of the Helvetic armed force at Berne, is ordered to avoid any further bloodshed, and particularly with the intention of sparing the inhabitants of the city, on the one part, and M. E. Emanuel de Watterville, in the name of the Council of War who have attacked Berne on the other, have agreed upon the following articles:
Art. 1. There shall be an armistice between the Helvetic troops at Berne, and those which have attacked the city, to commence from the signing of the present convention.
2. The Helvetic troops shall give up the place in twenty-four hours after the signature.

WASHINGTON CITY.
WEDNESDAY, December 1, 1802.
[The following is an extract from a publication made the 16th of October, 1802, by Juan Ventura Morales, Intendant of the Province of Louisiana, &c, the authenticity of which may be relied on.]
The preceding part of the publication relates only to the ratification of peace, and the shutting of the port against foreign trade.]
"Whilst it was necessary to permit the commerce of neutrals, which is now discontinued, it would have been prejudicial to the province, had the intendant, in compliance with its duties, impeded the deposit of their property in this city, granted to the Americans by the 22d art. of the treaty of friendship, limits and navigation of the 27th Oct. 1795, during the term of three years: on the publication of the ratification of the treaty of Amiens, and the re-establishment of the communication between Spanish and English subjects, that inconvenience ceased: considering that the 22nd article of the said treaty, ties up my hands from continuing the permission which necessity required; because the said term being fulfilled, this intendant cannot consent to it, without the express order of the king:—Wherefore, and without prejudice to the exportation of what has been imported in due time, I order that from the present date the privilege, possessed by the Americans, of introducing and depositing their merchandizes and effects in this city, shall be interdicted; and in order that the premises may be made known to all, and that nobody may alledge ignorance, I order that it be published in the usual places, and copies posted up on the public places, and that the proper information be transmitted to the officers of the royal customs, administrators of rents, and to whomsoever else it may be necessary. The present being given under my hand, &c. &c.

Extract of a letter from Charleston (S. C.) to the Editor, Nov. 15, 1802.
"In your paper of the 1st, I observe you have published the result of our late election to the state legislature, in which you say there are 7 Republicans, 7 Federalists and 1 doubtful. Permit me to assure you, that the result of this election has been more favourable to the Republican interest than it appears to be from your statement. In the first place I would remark, that Mr. Somersall, although surrounded with Federal connections, is a Republican; and I am persuaded that he voted for the Republican ticket of electors for President and Vice President in December 1800, at Columbia, so that we have a majority of Republican members this year from Charleston, (where there has always existed but too much aristocracy) and in 1800 we could only get in 4 out of 15."
"In the next place you will observe, by the list I enclose you, that the three highest names were on both tickets—the 4th, 5th, 7th, 8th, 10th and 11th are Republicans, and were on that ticket only—the four lowest are Federalists. Thus you see, that, besides having a majority, the Republicans stand higher on the list than the Federalists, and Mr. Thomas R. Smith, a decided and warm Federalist, who stood high on the list in 1800, lost his election this year."
"This does not indicate any decline of Republicanism, even in Charleston."

JOHN BAPTIST ASHE, a firm republican, is elected Governor of North Carolina. The votes for Governor were for Mr. Ashe 103, for William Polk 49, for Joseph Taylor 19.
The Connecticut Legislature have provided a law against the giving of spirituous liquors on the days for the election of public officers. Would it not be well for the freedom of our elections if our legislature would prohibit the distribution of liquors at any time, if it were designed to influence the election, as well the evening following as on election day or preceding? It is probable this would have given a different complexion to some late elections.
From the Salem Register of November 18, 1802.
The Editor of this paper was yesterday called into Court to answer to an indictment for a supposed libel upon the ex-candidate and ex-secretary Timothy Pickering.
He forbears to make any remarks upon this transaction—he leaves it to the juries of a Republican Country to determine his crime and his punishment. His judges, however federal, will, he trusts, be impartial in their charges, and he shall cheerfully abide the verdict of twelve virtuous yeomen. He knows well who are the characters to whom he owes this prosecution; and the mildness and modesty of the complainants have long exemplified their hatred of PERSECUTION.
From the Petersburg Intelligencer.
By a gentleman from Petersburg, Virginia, we learn, that his excellency James Monroe, Esq. Governor of the Ancient Dominion, had absented and left that state: the circumstances as related, are these;—the Governor had contracted some very large debts, and his creditors thought it advisable, as his reverence was about retiring from the chair of state, when he would no longer have at his command the key of the treasury, to send a sheriff after him; but his excellency for very good reasons, hastened to Norfolk, from whence he took boat and went to the Eastern Shore, of Maryland.—The gentleman who relates this can be depended upon, and if the report is not true, it originated with his excellency's subjects. If we are not correct as to the object of his democratic majesty's journey, we hope the printers of Virginia will put us right.

[It would be unnecessary to contradict the above, as every citizen of Virginia, on reading it, will know that it is replete with the grossest misrepresentations. If common prudence and a regard for their own reputation, unbiased by passion or party, would actuate the conduct of Editors, they would not be led away by improbable and fantastic tales. Governor Monroe, in the discharge of the duties of his office, during a trying scene of party rage and political animosity, has rendered himself amiable in society, and distinguished for his integrity, candor, politeness and attention. Mr. Boylan, we hope will correct the error into which he has been led, and publish the name of the person who gave him the information, that the stigma of having published a paragraph both vicious and immoral may not attach to himself.]
PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 23.
Extract of a letter from a house in New Orleans, to a gentleman in this city, dated October 19.
"We have just procured, and now enclose you, a copy of the Proclamation of the Intendant, shutting this port against foreigners, and placing its commerce on the footing it was before the war. In regard to the measure of depriving the Americans of the right of deposit for the present, as regards the town of New Orleans, because the time limited is expired, is equally unauthorized and ridiculous, and as such, is firmly opposed by the Governor, and certainly can never be carried into effect. The most violent hatred and animosity subsists between the Governor and Intendant, who are jealous of each other's power.—The treaty is clear and explicit, that some convenient spot must be assigned to the Americans for a deposit; and it is out of the power of the Intendant, and all his proclamations, to prevent it. Such a measure would be an act of hostility for which he would be certainly punished and suspended."
"The effect of this event has been to raise the value of the goods on hand, of which the supplies of the proper kind are limited, and confined to a few hands."
(For Decree see Washington head.)
Another letter says:
OCTOBER 17:
"Yesterday afternoon peace was proclaimed, and we are informed that the Intendant has declared the port shut to Americans as a place of deposit. The treaty having only specified this port as such for three years which are expired, it is shut till the king's pleasure is known. This it is said will be posted in handbills to-day; but it is impossible to say how far the measure will extend, and a few days must elapse before the real state of things is known. The governor opposes the measure entirely."
18th.—It seems impossible to come at the truth of this business. Yesterday it was said that the port was not only shut, but that, contrary to the treaty, the Intendant had resolved to withhold, and indeed had actually denied the privilege of deposit to the Americans. This last measure, it is said, even by men in office, will be opposed by the armed force of the governor, who deems it equivalent to a declaration of war against the United States. Thus you will perceive, that our men in authority are at open variance, and as I learn to day, it is even now uncertain whether the port will be considered as shut for some time to come. Some Americans propose this day to clear out for exportation Spanish produce in American bottoms."
New-York, Nov. 23.
The Kingston Daily Advertiser of the 1st inst. contains an extract from the Barbadoes Mercury of the 19th October, relative to Martinique. Which states, that late accounts from Martinique represents the French as adopting the most shocking acts of revenge against the free coloured people there, many of whom have been wantonly murdered, and their bodies found in the streets in the morning. They seem also still to feel some resentment against the British, all of whom remaining there are compelled to take oaths of allegiance to the Republic, or quit the country within six weeks; and no English vessel is allowed to lay off the harbor longer than six hours. The accounts before stated of the French troops being very unhealthy, is confirmed by the following article from the St. Vincents Gazette of the 9th October.
New-York, November 23.
Capt. Peale of the sch'r John, who arrived here yesterday, last from Turk's Island, and in 25 days from Cape-Francois, informs, that the blacks had taken Fort Dauphine in the night by surprise, which they had burned; their force was very considerable and daily augmenting. The brigands were still in possession of Port-de-Paix. The French troops died very rapidly—a reinforcement was daily expected, as a fleet had been spoken off Porto-Rico, from France, bound to the Cape. Markets were remarkably dull at the Cape.
New-York, Nov. 25.
FRENCH EVACUATED ST. DOMINGO.
Mr. Basset, owner of the ship Perseus, arrived here yesterday from Jamaica, informs us, that just before he sailed, news had been received there, by American vessels, that the French troops had evacuated the different fortified places of St. Domingo, in consequence of the formidable opposition of the Blacks; and had gone to the Island of Tortuda, to wait for reinforcements. This information was generally believed at Kingston; at which port nearly thirty sail of American vessels had recently arrived from the different ports of that Island.
NEW JERSEY.
Extract of a letter to the editor, dated, Trenton, Nov. 25, 1802.
"This afternoon, at 3 o'clock, a joint meeting of the two houses of the legislature took place in the assembly room.—For the office of governor three candidates were in nomination, viz:—"
Joseph Bloomfield, Esquires.
Richard Stockton,
Aaron Ogden,
"On the first trial, an equal number of votes were given for Mr. Bloomfield and Mr. Stockton;—on a second attempt, the votes were equally divided between Mr. Bloomfield and Mr. Ogden. Finding no probability of accomplishing the choice of a governor, the joint meeting agreed to relinquish the object. The vice-president still holds, and probably will continue during the year to hold, the office and attributes of governor."
"The joint meeting next proceeded to the appointment of a clerk of the supreme court. Mr. Linn and Col. Rhea were candidates—the latter was elected—33 to 19."
"The joint meeting next proceeded to the appointment of a treasurer—James Saltar was unanimously re-elected."
"The appointment of clerk of the county of Essex was postponed, (by the casting vote of Dr. Scudder,) on the plea urged by Mr. Frelinghuysen, that the law of the last legislature which took the clerk's office from Col. Ogden, was unconstitutional, and that no appointment ought to be made under it until the supreme court, before whom the question now is, should decide on its constitutionality."
[Aurora.]
A conspiracy for restoring the constitution of 1793, and the dethronement of Bonaparte, is said to have been discovered at Benness. General S.—who had a command in Brittany was at the head of it, and several officers of the troops in garrison there, amounting to 6000 men, were concerned. The commandant harangued the soldiers, and gained some partizans; but the Prefect and his party prevailed; and the commandant was seized, and is now confined in the temple.
One of the papers of Saturday evening, gave, on the authority of a private letter from Paris, the outline of a partition treaty, which is reported to have been the result of the late intimacy between France and Russia:—According to this, France is to have Malta, Candia, Cyprus, and Egypt; and Russia to have Albania, and the Country bordering the Adriatic, with the Republic of the seven Isles.
The marriage of M. Talleyrand, at Paris, is said to have experienced some impediments, which for a long time, were near breaking it off. The principal of them was the difficulty of obtaining the
consent of the First Consul, which was procured by the mediation of Madame Bonaparte. The Chief Consul, in conceding it, said to Madame Grant, "Baroness, how will you find a priest who will dare to marry you?" The lady answered, she was under no embarrassment on that head. The clergyman on whom the relied, is said to be the curate of St. Gervais, and not Cardinal Caprara, as it was reported. There was still another difficulty in making the marriage public, but, by the advice of M. de St. Foy, the particular friend of Talleyrand, it was got over in this manner—it was agreed, that the minister should invite a large party to dinner, and when they were at table, that St. Foy should come in and address Madame Grant, by the name of Madame Talleyrand. This was executed in the intended manner, and the publication was as effectual as any that could have been made.—The persons who witnessed the marriage ceremony, were M. M. Roederer, Bourneville, St. Foy, and the prince of Nassau.
