CHRONICLES.
1. AND it came to pass that in the first year of the reign of the great Man Mammoth.
2. The Man Mammoth sent for a red man from the Wilderness, called the Little Turtle, and for his followers, and laid unto them.
3. We have called by different colours brethren of the same complexion: We are all white men, we are all red men.
4. Behold I have something to communicate to you of very great importance to you and your children the red people.
5. The great Spirit has lately made to the enlightened white men, a most precious gift, which will forever secure them from that terrible plague the small pox, which has also been so repeatedly destructive amongst the tribes of red men.
6. The practice is easy and all the tribes of white men are following it.
7. And the Little Turtle exclaimed, Oh! Mammoth, why have we not been told of its benefits before.
8. The Man Mammoth answered and said, during the late administration, those who were not of a particular colour were excluded from the benign practice; and by a steady pursuit of this measure, one half the inhabitants of this continent were interdicted from the right and the blessings of Kine Innoculation.
9. I have determined to extend these blessings to all the tribes of the red men; and that the fame of the deed shall be known throughout the land.
10. The Man Mammoth then sent for his holy man, and commanded him to make incision into the arms of the Little Turtle, and his followers, and inoculate them with matter which he had received from afar off, even from a philosophical citizen of the Bay State.
11. And the Man Mammoth swore by the "rights of man, and the Mazzeian system" that every man, woman and child of the red people should receive this disease.
12. But the Little Turtle said, we have among us many so aged and infirm, that mild as is the operation, and the distillation, their feeble frames may not be able to support it.
13. The Man Mammoth replied, be not afraid, we had a philosopher who upwards of four score years of age was the ornament of human nature.
14. And they were all astonished at the profound reasoning of the Man Mammoth.
15. The Man Mammoth continued, it would have given me pleasure to have found a moderate participation of the kine pox among the red people; I would gladly have lent to time and accident to raise them to their just share. But the total exclusion calls for prompter corrective.
16. I shall correct the procedure; but that done, return with joy to that state of things, when the only question concerning candidates for inoculation shall be are they suitable subjects and do they wish to take the disease?
17. And the story was told to all the people and published in all the papers.
FROM THE N. E. PALLADIUM
MESSENGERS. EDITORS
Lord Chesterfield, though a professed man of the world, and thoroughly versed in the etiquette of fashionable life, has, in some of his writings, very happily exposed the folly, as well as impurity of the duellist. The wonderfully important particulars of a late duel at New York, suggested to me the expediency of publishing his Lordship's thoughts, relative to this subject. To such a man, on such a subject, our American men of honor ought to listen without prejudice. I send you, at this time, his observations on the abuse of the word honor ; — should you think proper to publish them, I shall soon send you a farther extract, wherein his Lordship forcibly and pointedly ridicules the practice of duelling.
Yours, &c.
AMICUS.
ABUSE OF THE WORD HONOR.
The word honor , in its proper signification, doubtless implies the united sentiments of virtue, truth and justice, carried by a generous mind beyond the mere moral obligations, which the laws require or can punish the violation of. A true man of honor will not content himself with the literal discharge of the duties of
a man and a citizen; he raises and dignifies them to the magnanimity. He gives where he may with justice refuse; he forgives, where he may with justice resent; and his whole conduct is directed by the noble sentiments of his own unvitiated heart: surer and more scrupulous guides than the laws of the land, which, being calculated for the generality of mankind, must necessarily be more a restraint upon vices in general, than an invitation and reward of particular virtues. But these extensive and compound notions of honor have been long contrasted and reduced to the single one of personal courage. Among the Romans honor meant no more than contempt of dangers and death in the service, whether just or unjust, of their country. Their successors and conquerors, the Goths and Vandals, who did not deal much in complex ideas, simplified those of honor, and reduced them to this plain and simple one, of fighting for fighting's sake, upon any or all, no matter what occasions.
Our present mode of honor is somewhat more compounded, as will appear by the true character, which I shall now give, of a fashionable man of honor .
A gentleman, which is now the genteel synonymous term for a man of honor and which may be defined to be a man, who with a tolerable suit of clothes, a watch, snuff-box, &c. &c. asserts himself to be a gentleman swears with energy, that he will be treated as such, and that he will cut the throat of any one who presumes to say the contrary, must like his Gothic ancestors, be ready for, and rather desirous of a single combat. And if by a proper degree of wrong headedness he provokes it, he is only so much the more jealous of his honor, and more of a gentleman.
He may lie with impunity, if he is neither detected nor accused of it; for it is not the lie he tells, but the lie he is told of that dishonors him. In that case he demonstrates his veracity by his sword, or his pistols, and either kills, or is killed, with the greatest honor.
He may abuse and starve his own wife, daughters or sisters and he may seduce those of other men, particularly his friends, with inviolate honor, because, as Sir John Brute very justly observes, he wears a sword.
By the laws of honor he is not obliged to pay his servants or his tradesmen; for as they are a pack of scoundrels, they cannot without insolence demand their due of a gentleman: but he may punctually pay his gaming debts to the sharps, who have cheated him; for those debts are really debts of honor.
He is under one disagreeable restraint; for he must not cheat at play, unless in a horsematch; But yet he may with great honor defraud in an office, or betray a trust.
In public affairs, he may, not only with honor but even with some degree of lustre be under one administration a turbulent patriot, opposing the best measures, and under another a servile courtier, promoting the worst, provided a very lucrative consideration be known to be the motive of his conversion; for in that case the point of honor tears singly upon the quantum.
From these premises, which the more they are considered, the truer they will be found, it appears, that there are but two things, which a man of the nicest honor may not do, which are declining single combat, and cheating at play . Strange! that virtue should be so difficult, and honor, its superior, so easy to attain to.
The uninformed herd of mankind are governed by words and names, which they implicitly receive, without either knowing or asking their meaning. Even the philosophical and religious controversies, for the last three or four hundred years, have turned much more upon words and names, unascertained and misunderstood, than upon things fairly stated. The polite world, to save time and trouble, receive, adopt, and use words, in the signification of the day; not having leisure nor inclination to examine and analyze them, and thus often misled by sounds, and not always secured by sense, they are hurried into fatal errors, which they do not give their understandings fair play enough to prevent.
How many unthinking and unhappy men really take themselves to be men of honor, upon the mistaken ideas of that word! And how fatal to others, especially to the young and unexperienced, is their example and success in the world! I heartily wish that some good dramatic poet would exhibit, at full length, and in live
ly colors upon the stage, this modish character of a man of honor, of which I have but slightly and hastily chalked the outlines. Upon such a subject I am apt to think, that a good poet might be more useful than a good preacher, as probably his audiences would be more numerous and his matter more attended to. Besides,

Extract of a letter from Cadiz, to a respectable mercantile house in this city, dated 6th ult.
WAR WITH THE MOORS!
"Contrary to what I assured you in my last, we are here still, and our detention has been a fortunate circumstance, for it has ensured us the protection of a Swedish frigate, which came in here three days since, to convoy Swedish and American merchantmen to the Mediterranean. I hope now we have no danger to apprehend in going to Gibraltar; but it would be extremely imprudent to attempt to go unprotected; and if several more of our ships of war do not come out here soon, our commerce with the Mediterranean must be abandoned. The Tripolitans have captured two of our vessels, and one Swede. They and the Moors are now arming with great spirit. Commodore Morris, aware of the danger, is coming here soon, to convoy a number of our vessels to the westward. We shall sail tomorrow morning."

NORFOLK, August 17.
WAR WITH THE ALGERINES. By the Dart, arrived here on Saturday night from Gibraltar, in 42 days, we have received the following interesting information.
[The Dart also brings dispatches to our government.]
"That Commodore Morris, in the U. States ship Chesapeake, failed on the 21st June for Tangiers, in order to have the nature of some demands made by the Emperor of Morocco on our Government explained; the wind being light from the westward prevented the ship from keeping her station, the Commodore was obliged to return without effecting his object. — On the 24th, Mr. Simpson, our Consul at Tangiers, dispatched a boat to inform Commodore Morris, that he was allowed 15 days to consider whether the demands would be complied with or not — but on the day following (the 25th) the consul received orders to quit the emperor's dominions in one hour, otherwise he should be held a slave, for the Emperor considering himself at war with United States. Immediately on this the Consul with what small part of his furniture he could pack up in so short a time, got on board a boat, and arrived at the Rock that evening; next day war was declared in form against the United States at Tangiers. A few days after the Danish Consul came over from Algiers, and informed that they were fitting out all the boats they could for the purpose of annoying our trade, and that some of them had not more than 20 men on board. The Emperors demands were, that his vessels with wheat on board should be allowed to enter Tripoli, (now under blockade) and that we should send a frigate to convoy the Tripolitan ship at Gibraltar to Tripoli. Mr. Simpson informed him, that he could not grant such favors.
Extract of a letter dated Gibraltar, 28th June 1802, from John Gavino, Esq. American Consul, to a gentleman in this town.
"On the 25th inst. arrived consul Simpson, from Tangiers; he has been ordered away by the Emperor of Morocco in a state of war: he tells me the Emperor declared, and had ordered his cruisers to be fitted out against the Americans, which is an unpleasant account, and our trade much exposed in entering the Straits, being such a narrow pass, and liable to calms, that his small cruisers may annoy our vessels greatly."
Arrived, the ship Dart, capt. Peck, 42 days from Gibraltar. Sailed from Barcelona in June, and left there ship Catharine, Mills, of Baltimore.

SATURDAY, AUGUST 21.
On Saturday last the New York was put in commission, and it is expected that in the course of two weeks from that day she will be fully equipped for sea. When she joins the Mediterranean squadron, commodore Morris will have under his command the Chesapeake, the Constellation, the Adams, the Boston, the New York and the Enterprise. These with the squadron under the command of the Swedish admiral, will, it is conceived, be sufficient to protect our commerce against Tripoli and Morocco.
Extract of a letter from commodore Morris to the Secretary of the Navy, dated Gibraltar Bay, June 26, 1802.
Yesterday Mr. Simpson, Consul from the United States of America to the court of Morocco, arrived at Gibraltar, from Tangier. The Emperor of Morocco has forced him from his dominions and declared war against the United States. This circumstance I have made known to the American ministers at London, Paris and Madrid, in order that they might acquaint the Americans bound to the Mediterranean therewith, recommending that they should rendezvous at Cadiz, where they should receive as frequent convoy as our squadron could afford. Should you make the above known to the merchants in America, directing them to repair to Cadiz, before they enter the strait's mouth I will call frequently and take them under convoy.
The following is a copy of a Circular notice given by Mr. Simpson, to the Consuls in the principal sea-port towns in Europe.
CIRCULAR.
Gibraltar, June 25, 1802.
SIR,
I have to acquaint you that the governor of Tangiers, in consequence of orders from his Imperial majesty, Mully Soliman, has compelled me to retire from that country, his majesty having declared war against the United States of America. You will be pleased by every means in your power, to make this event known to all the citizens of the United States that may be within your district, and to caution all masters of our merchant vessels to be very careful to avoid the Moors cruisers, especially in and near the straits of Gibraltar, where it is highly probable they will have many small armed boats.
I am with respect,
Sir, your most ob. servant,
(Signed) JAMES SIMPSON.
SERIOUS QUESTIONS & OBVIOUS ANSWERS.
Why did Mr. Jefferson put a stop to several prosecutions commenced by the government of the U. States against William Dunn, now called Duane, a subject of his Britannic majesty?
Dunn, upon his arrival in this country published a libelous and seditious pamphlet against General Washington, under the signature of Jasper Dwight; he wrote paragraphs in the Aurora, in which Washington was called a murderer and in which the day of his retiring from the presidency of the United States was proclaimed as a jubilee, because his name would no longer legalize corruption. This same Dunn has since been the publisher of the Aurora, which has not ceased to libel the government, and to eulogize such men as Lyon, Jefferson, Paine, Gallatin, &c. &c.
What if Jefferson had refused to screen this foreign miscreant from the punishment denounced against his crimes by our violated and insulted laws?
He might have told a number of stories as much more unpleasant to Mr. Jefferson than those told by Callender as Dunn has been more active and conspicuous than Callender in the service of Mr. Jefferson. It is acknowledged that Mr. Jefferson paid a hundred dollars for the publication of the Prospect before Us, and that he furnished part of the matter which was incorporated into the work. It is not known who furnished the lies and libels incorporated into the Aurora, and it is not impossible that the information which Dunn could furnish upon the subject would be even more discreditable to Mr. Jefferson than to violate the constitution by screening him from the laws of the country.
It has been said that Mr. Jefferson degraded himself and his office by associating with that fellow, and by procuring him the most profitable employments under the government: but who will undertake to say how much more he might have been degraded if by neglecting to heap favors upon Dunn he had provoked him to tell what he knows?
What inducement had Mr. Jefferson to write a cordial letter to Tom Paine, giving him assurance of his "high esteem and affectionate attachment"?
This Tom Paine, had written an infamous letter to Gen. Washington in which he denominated him a TRAITOR and accuses him of every crime which can disgrace humanity. He had also written a book and dedicated it to the American people, which, like a vaunting fool declared would overthrow and extirpate the christian religion.
For what reason was Tom Cooper, an English calico-printer, elected a member of the American philosophical society, of which Mr. Jefferson is president?
Tom Cooper had been guilty of a gross violation of the laws of this country by publishing a false, scandalous and malicious libel upon the government which Mr. Jefferson wanted to administer, and for this crime had suffered an ignominious punishment.
For what reason were two hundred dollars taken from the public treasury by Mr. Jefferson and restored to James Thompson Callender, being part of his penalty for publishing a libel upon Washington, Adams and most of the officers of government?
Mr. Jefferson had been aiding and abetting the publication of that infamous libel, and doubtless did not wish that the world should know that the man whose virtues will secure to him "the fairest page in the volume of faithful history" had been denominated "a poltroon" - the "grand lama of federal adoration, the immaculate divinity of Mount Vernon" - that he had been charged with "scandalous hypocrisy," and accused of introducing into the government "a scene of ignominy" - and all this with much more, in a book, part of the materials for which he had himself furnished, and for the publication of which he had given one hundred dollars out of his own pocket.

Extract of a letter from Paris, June 15.
"Within these few days much conversation has taken place in a certain circle, respecting a probable change in the constitution, and this circumstance very seriously occupies the politicians most looked up to for information; much contrariety of opinion is entertained; but on one point the parties agree, that the word constitution will be shortly out of use, and that Grande Charte will be substituted. It is certain that the word constitution has been very unfortunate; during fifteen hundred years it could not make its way into France at all, and for these last eleven, though received in triumph, it has been subject to every caprice. It is not sufficiently understood in this country, that men make the laws, but time the constitution. This is, of all the legislators amongst this volatile people, least known, or the least consulted, though certainly the dearest paid. It is said, that there are to be two Chambers or Houses, as in England, and the Senatorial Power, (which originated in one of the fine ideas of the Abbe Sieyes) is to be abolished; if so, some vice must have been found amongst the Senators themselves, and not in the idea, for it was the only body which could preserve its independence without danger, or manifest a positive and blind adherence to the Court without apologies - the protecting and elective power, known here by the title, La Puissance Conservatrice et Elective, will be transferred to the consular authority, who will then have the privilege to reject or accept the laws which may be discussed, or have passed in the two chambers."
"The senate of France is not an upper branch of the legislature, as the house of Lords in England, and the senates in this country are. We conceive that the contemplated alteration is an approximation towards two branches in the legislature with a check each on the other, and a Supreme Executive. We hope French constitutions will be more permanent than they have been."
"Such are the ideas now canvassed, and it may be readily believed, that if the First Consul expresses his desire that such should be the order of things, a change
will take place almost without any hint of opposition. The Royalists might see the alteration with regret, but their opinions would have little weight, and the Republicans are now sufficiently enlightened to know that the surest mode of preserving the share of Liberty, which circumstances allow them, is to conduct themselves with a tacit acquiescence to the supreme will. Tribunes and Legislators are eagerly looking out for places under the new order of things; instead of enjoying themselves, during the Adjournment of the Session, with their families in the Country, many of them remain at Paris, to watch over the great interest, not of the Republic, but of their ambition."
From the Greenock Advertiser, of May 28.
The American States seem to be alarmed, and not without great reason, for the consequences of the exchange made between the French and Spaniards of Louisiana, a narrow tract of land which skirts the States on the South, from the easternmost to the westernmost extremity, that is, from the Atlantic Ocean to the mouth of the Mississippi.
The Southern rivers of America, as well as all the western ones, which empty themselves into the Ohio and the Mississippi, are therefore liable to be cut off from their communication with the Gulf of Mexico whenever the French choose, as all of them run through the ceded territory. Those fine rivers that are thus cut off, or are liable to be so, water near three fourths of the whole of the United States, and by far the most fertile portion, though not yet the most numerously inhabited.
Much bustle has been made in Europe about the fruiting of the Scheldt, a wide, deep and beautiful river, but which in its extreme length is not above 80 miles, and at no place 30 distant from the sea. How different the rivers that up in America, which, without counting the Mississippi itself, water more than half a million of square miles of fine fertile lands, some of them 1000 miles from the sea, and beyond mountains that render land carriage almost impracticable! a territory larger than England, France and Spain joined together, will be destroyed, if the French get possession of Louisiana; and it is from that very territory from which the manufacturers of this country are to expect the most extensive market for English goods of every kind, if those rivers are kept open. It is true that a great part of our manufactures are sufficiently light to bear land carriage from New-York, Philadelphia and Alexandria, to the western country; but then the western settlers cannot pay for our goods, unless they can sell the corn, hemp, tobacco, timber, &c. raised on their lands, which is only to be done by floating it down the rivers into the Gulf of Mexico.
The best wheat may be had frequently on the borders of the Ohio river, at 6d. English money per bushel. Flour, which they grind in the country, is proportionably cheap, and the wood for staves to make casks is found on the spot; so that by floating the produce down the river on rafts composed of the trunks of trees, an operation that takes from the most distant point only three weeks, and costs little, a man and a boy guiding the raft, the whole may be sold with great advantage at New Orleans, for the use of the West-India Islands. In case of the rivers being left open, the west country settlers will be in a short time the most affluent and easiest people on the face of the earth. If those rivers are shut up, the settlers will on the contrary, be confined like the inhabitants of the interior of Africa and Asia, to live on what they themselves produce; they will be debarred from all the advantages of commerce, and a connection with the rest of the world.
Extract of a letter from Paris, dated 22d June.
"Gen. ANDREOSSI, who is appointed ambassador to the Court of St. James's is a man of cold, and even forbidding address, firm in his principles, and of an established reputation for courage and probity. His mind is much enlightened by study, but serious and reflecting, and little disposed to the sumptuous mode of living generally adopted by diplomatic characters. He published about fifteen months ago a small work to prove France was indebted to his ancestors for the useful project of forming the Languedoc Canal, and not the family of REQUET, or REQUETTE, who had for more than 120 years arrogated to itself the merit both of the plan and the commencement of its execution. General ANDREOSSI's work was written with purity and elegance, and displayed much more literary knowledge than in general falls to the share of military men."
"When General CLARKE was sent upon his insignificant embassy to Italy, which was rather thought by the public a disgrace, General ANDREOSSI succeeded him in the office called Depot de la Guerre , where every paper and document that may serve to throw any light upon the wars which have taken place during the revolution, are collected; and this nomination was highly approved of by the friends of liberty in France: - but those who were in the habits of intimacy, with the aristocratic party, and the minister for foreign affairs himself, expressed evident marks of dissatisfaction."
"The inhabitants of Orleans have addressed a petition to government, signed by many thousands, to solicit that their Bishop, BENNE, may be transferred to another See. They ground their complaints against him upon the bloody and fanatic conduct of that priest in the Vendee, and which they were enabled to ascertain from their vicinity to the theatre of his cruelty and folly."

I will take negroes for the whole or any part of it.—Should I not dispose of it, before the first of October, on that day, I shall publicly offer it for sale at the Coffee-House in Alexandria.
