PROPOSALS,
By Warner & Hanna, For publishing by Subscription, Six Volumes of SELECT PLAYS, To be entitled, The American Theatre. CONDITIONS.
1. The whole set will be printed in a handsome duodecimo size, on a superfine wove paper, and new type, made purposely for the work. 2. The price to subscribers, neatly bound and lettered, will be one dollar per volume--to non-subscribers one dollar and seventy-five cents. 3. No money required until the delivery of each volume, and at the completion of the whole a list of its patrons will be given. 4. The first volume will consist of the following much admired plays--Castle Spectre, Heir at Law, the Stranger, and Secrets Worth Knowing. 5. The publishers pledge themselves to be particular in their selection, by giving place to such plays as are publicly and justly admired for purity of sentiment, and elegance of diction; and no expence withheld in rendering the work for beauty equal to any in America. When it is considered that the American public have never as yet been put in possession, from a press in this country, of a set of well selected and approved plays, capable of producing much rational sentiment, chaste wit, and good humor, so well calculated to inculcate morality, amuse, recreate and animate the mind--the publishers flatter themselves their exertions will meet with encouragement.

A Man, because he is a cunninger animal, bridles and saddles his horse, and then mounts him and rides upon his back; and just so, a subtle, intriguing, ambitious fellow, by reason that he is, more cunning than the people, will bridle and saddle and ride them. Every skillful jockey knows how to manage a restiff or high-mettled horse, He first strokes, soothes and coaxes him; then with a sudden leap, he seats himself well on the saddle—after which the poor animal is at his mercy, and, by means of the bit, the spur and the thong, is made to know and submit to his rider. Thus, a sly demagogue will flatter the people, till he has riveted his yoke upon their necks or has mounted snugly upon their shoulders, and then he curbs and reins them with a bridle, whips them with his thong, or even plunges his spur into their sides, as best suits his purposes.
Marat and Robespierre professed unbounded friendship for the people. Marat, in the beginning of his political career, was the editor of a newspaper, which he entitled "The Friend of the People;" and which is said to have been stuffed with flattery to them, as well as with invectives against those men in authority, whom he wished to supplant. The very title of that newspaper, "The Friend of the People," was enough to give it unbounded credit and currency, "We will have Marat's paper (says the multitude) for he is our friend—he says so himself." "Success to Marat's newspaper," bawls another. "Huzza for Marat, exclaim the whole multitude, Huzza for Marat, the friend of the people." In the mean time, the cadaverous, lantern jawed Marat, observing how well his plans succeeded, "Grinn'd horribly a ghastly smile."
Robespierre was a noted speech-maker; and his speeches were generally filled with the cused hypocritical cant of ardent and boundless love to the people, who, duped by this artifice used to testify their approbation and gratitude by loud shouts and plaudits. In this way, those two fiends, those incarnate devils rendered themselves universally popular and acquired unlimited confidence and authority. And let the tears, the blood, the agonizing groans of millions of those deluded people tell the rest—This method of gulling the people by the horrid professions of great friendship for them, is no new thing; it is not a modern invention, but was practised by cunning, ambitious men, even in the earliest ages of the world. There is a remarkable instance of this nature, and of a very early date, in sacred history.
Abalom, a son of King David—a young man of an unprincipled, depraved mind, but possessing, great external accomplishments, was banished for the murder of his brother, and lived sometimes with the King of Geshur, his grandfather. At length, his indulgent father recalled him from banishment, and restored him to favor. This paternal indulgence, he requited by forming the horrible plan of usurping the throne, tho' he well knew, that in stepping up to it, he must dip his feet in his father's blood.—And what method did Abalom pursue in order to obtain this advancement? The very same that has been pursued by ambitious demagogues ever since; that is, he won the hearts of the people by his flattery.—The history of his political intrigue is very short and very instructive. It is as follows:—"And it came to pass after this, that Abalom prepared him chariots, and horses, and fifty men to run before him. And Abalom rose up early, and stood beside the way of the gate; and it was so, that when any man that had a controversy came to the King for judgment, then Abalom called to him and said, "Of what city art thou?" and he said, "thy servant is of one of the tribes of Israel." And Abalom said unto him, "See thy matters are good and right; but there is no man deputed of the King to hear thee." Abalom said moreover, "O that I were made judge in the land, that any man which hath any suit or cause might come unto me, and I would do him justice!" And it was so, that when any man came nigh to him to do him obeisance, he put forth his hand and took him and kissed him. And in this manner did Abalom to all Israel that came to the King for judgment. So Abalom stole the hearts of the men of Israel."
Mark the craft of this unprincipled upstart. He stood at the gates of the city and harangued the people as they were coming in and going out. Strangers he took by the hand and courteously enquired of them
their places of abode, kindly asking their business to Jerusalem, and when he found that they had some law suit to settle, or other important business at the royal court, while he flattered them with his opinion of the goodness of their cause, he, at the same time, hinted to them the incapacity and negligence of his father's administration. "There is no man, he said, deputed of the King to hear thee;" as much as to say, "the King neglects you and through his neglect you suffer injustice and injury."
Abalom, then, with a peculiar modesty, proceeded to recommend himself for office. "O, said he, that I were made judge in the land, that every man which hath any suit or cause might come to me and I would do him justice!" What a patriotic wish! And how many a patriotic heart has devoutly uttered the like ejaculation. "O that I might get myself snug into some office of honor and profit!"
"So pants the hunted hart to find, And taste the water brooks."
"Were I to be King, said Abalom in his popular harangue, I would do all of you justice; I would lighten your burdens and redress all your grievances."—What charming talk!—The people were all ears, all eyes, all attention. But what raptures filled their hearts, when, besides these kind expressions, he took them by the hand one after another and kissed them. It is nothing strange that he "stole their hearts," as the sacred text expresses it. "How wonderfully has Abalom altered of late? said the people. He used to be so haughty, that we were not permitted to speak to him; but now he is as meek as a shepherd's lamb. He used to have a hard heart, a cruel nature; but now his heart melts with pity and kindness towards us. We like him a thousand times better than we do that conceited humdrum, Solomon, who never kissed so much as one of us in all his life." "Did you observe, said one, that though we be dirty or ragged, it makes no difference; he kisses us all?" "Yes, cried another, I came directly out of the field covered with dust and dirt, and he kissed me!"—"And me too,—replied a blacksmith—he kissed me, though I came from my shop without washing, and with my face all over besmeared with sweat and coal-dust."—"What a precious man of the people! exclaimed a thousand tongues. Tho' he has fine chariots, fine horses and fine clothes, and his head is covered with the sweetest perfumes and his hands are as white as lilies, he loves us and even takes us by the hand and kisses us. God save Abalom! King Abalom, live forever!"
The deluded people seemed to have been in no measure shocked at the horrid guilt of Abalom in attempting to usurp the throne at the expense of his father's life. They were not shocked even at the unequalled impudence of his profligacy, in debauching his father's women upon the house-top, in open day, and in public view. They did not consider that such a bloody and vicious monster clothed with power, would be the worst of tyrants. No, he had flattered them—he had told them that he was their friend—he had kissed them, and by these means, had stolen their hearts; and, but for the fortunate circumstance of his death, the nation of Israel might have found in Abalom as execrable a tyrant as France did in Robespierre. So the world has gone on from age to age; the credulous multitude have been caught by the few that were crafty and designing, even as fishes are caught in a net.
The great and all important experiment is now trying, whether the people of our nation be wiser than have been the people of other nations and of former ages. God grant that the experiment may prove successful and issue in the distinguished honor and happiness of this country.
People of the United States!—Beware of men who flatter you, for they flatter you in order to fleece you. Beware of men who speak to you in the winning cant of a lover, and profess unbounded affection for you.—"Their hearts mean not so." Beware of men who are ever proclaiming their patriotism. It is the hypocrite's trumpet which they blow. Beware of men who use vile and infamous arts and intrigues to get themselves into offices.
HISTORICUS.
PLYMOUTH, August 1.
This afternoon arrived his majesty's ship Immortalite, of 38 guns, captain Hotham, from a cruise, and brought in with her a very beautiful French ship called l'Invention, of Bourdeaux, of 24 long six-pounders, two 12 pounders and 220
men, which she captured off Cape Ortugal. Independent of her being as fine a ship of her class as we have seen for war, she is a great curiosity, being fitted for four masts, at nearly equal distance from each other; the first mainmast taken from forward is the largest, the foremast and the second mainmast are nearly of a height, and the mizenmast is the shortest of the whole, but she has four top gallant yards rigged aloft; she is a great length, having thirteen ports on each side on a flush deck, and carries her guns very high from the water; she appears to be firm, well equipped ship, and is within two feet of the length of the Immortalite frigate by which she was captured.
INDIA.
By the late India arrivals we receive the following details of a very gallant exploit performed by the boats of the squadron under captain Hotham, cruising off the Isle of France, in cutting out of the inner harbour the ship Sea-Nymph, under Hamburg colours. "This ship was discovered by the squadron early in the morning close under Cannoner's Point, with light airs of wind off the land, and notwithstanding every exertion of each ship they could not prevent her from getting close under the batteries, altho' the Lancaster fired several broadsides at her. She was supported by a number of shot from the shore, and the boats from the privateers in the harbor towed her into shelter about noon. Captain Hotham was determined not to part with her, notwithstanding they had succeeded so far as to get her into the inner harbor, protected by a chain of batteries and three privateers, ready for sea. At sun-set the boats of the squadron were hoisted out, well manned and armed, with volunteers; but notwithstanding every precaution was used to prevent the enemy from perceiving our intentions, it was soon made known to the captain of the port that the English had their boats out, and supposed for the purpose of cutting out this ship. In consequence of which a party of 40 soldiers were sent on board her from the shore, and all the batteries manned, ready to prevent a surprise; at the same time three boats were ordered from port to tow her still farther up the harbour.
"It appears from the supercargoes account, that he was ordered to go on board his ship by the municipality, just as it was dark, when he found his ship in possession of French troops, and the boats in the act of towing her further up; that he had not been on board more than six minutes, when six English boats were discovered close along-side, and a dreadful fire commenced on all sides immediately; but in a few minutes the British tars had possession of her, and most of the Frenchmen were killed or wounded. They instantly cut the rope, by which the French boats were towing, and sent their own boats in their stead.—They towed the ship's head round, and made sail on her, the wind being direct out; upon which a most tremendous fire was opened upon them, not only from the batteries with shot and shells, but from the privateers, which they had to pass within pistol shot. By the bravery and good management of the British seamen, she was soon without their reach; and although the ship was much disabled and her masts and rigging cut to pieces, with the loss of eight seamen killed and wounded. The first Lieutenant of the Lancaster lost his arm; the slaughter among the French was great, even from their own guns. She has arrived at the Cape, with several other prizes of small value."
BOSTON, September 16.
From South America—Late.
"Captain Starbuck, of the Harlequin, informs, that the viceroy of Lima, has ordered the seizure of all vessels having goods on board for trade above the value of 100 dollars; a sharp look-out is kept on the coast. Two vessels have recently been taken and sent to Lima, or Callao; and a ship from New-York, Liscobm, master; she was condemned in toto—she had been trading some time, and had 150,000 dollars in specie on board. The other was the Catharine, of Boston, B. Worth; and had gone for Lima. She was taken on the coast of Chili. The Whale-ships that go in are politely treated."
Benjamin Talmage, esq. is the federal candidate for congress, in the room of Mr. Edmonds, resigned. If our memory serves us, Mr. Talmage was a highly distinguished, active and meritorious officer during the revolutionary war.
The Vermont annual elections have lately taken place. Gov. Tichenor, we learn, has been re-elected; and the legislature, it is expected, will continue federal.
PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 22.
On Friday and Saturday last, the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania was occupied in hearing the argument on the motion "for a rule to show cause why leave should not be had to file an information in nature of quo warranto against A. J. Dallas, for exercising the office of Recorder of the city of Philadelphia." Messrs. Hopkinson, Tilghman and Lewis were the counsel for the Select and Common Councils.—Mr Kean and Ingersoll in behalf of A. J. Dallas. The argument continued until 8 o'clock on Saturday evening; when the court observing that it was the last day of the term, it would not be in their power to pronounce their opinion on the subject until the next term. The Court then adjourned.
We do not learn whether Dallas means to exercise the officer of Recorder during the interim.

THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 24.
If the following were not literally copied it might be taken for the wagging of some adept in craft readings : It is, however, an unmitigated copy from the recapitulatory notices of the Editor of the Salem Register—of whose terse commentaries upon the news of the week, a brother demn of New-Jersey, has recently made very honorable mention.—  "Experiments are making upon the Asiatic Rams in this country. They give 12 lbs. of wool. Useful experiments are constantly made and communicated which may be useful to the farmers—among other institutions we hear of a Musical Society in Boston! "
Capt. Stow, who arrived at New-York from St. Croix, mentions, that the day before he sailed, the Danes received permission to hoist their colors; and it was hourly expected that the captured islands would be restored.
Capt. Silas Talbot, has resigned his commission. We understand, that this measure has proceeded from a wish to do away difficulties which in his apprehension,
resulted from the contested point of rank between him and captain Truxton.

* Though Maryland appears above to have decreased 10,024 inhabitants; yet the fact is otherwise; for allowance must be made for the subtraction of 8,145 inhabitants, which form the population of the southern District of Columbia, and for the deficient return, which added to the former will undoubtedly give a small increase of numbers to that district in 1790, embraced by Maryland.
By the above table it appears that in 1790 the states, according to their respective numbers, stood thus:
  1. Virginia,  9. New-Jersey,    2. Massachusetts,  10. New-Hampshire,    3. Pennsylvania,  11. Vermont,    4. North-Carolina,  12. Georgia,    5. New-York,  13. Kentucky,    6. Maryland,  14. Rhode-Island,    7. South-Carolina,  15. Delaware,    8. Connecticut,   
It further appears that, according to the census of 1800, they now in point of numbers stand thus:
  1. Virginia,  9. Kentucky,    2. Pennsylvania,  10. New-Jersey,    3. Massachusetts,  11. New-Hampshire,    4. New-York,  12. Georgia,    5. N.-Carolina,  13. Vermont,    6. S.-Carolina,  14. Rhode-Island,    7. Maryland,  15. Delaware,    8. Connecticut,   
The following Table shews the advanced population of each State, according to the census of 1800, beyond that of 1790.
TABLE V.
   Increase.     New-Hampshire, 30 per. cent.   Rhode Island no assignable increase,   Massachusetts, 21   Connecticut, 5   Vermont, 81   New-York 42   New-Jersey, 14   Pennsylvania, 38   Delaware, 8   Maryland, diminution of 3 per cent.   Virginia, 18   North-Carolina, 21   South-Carolina, 38   Georgia, 58   Kentucky, 200   6.14  
From this statement it follows that the respective states have proportionably increased in the degrees above stated in the following order, viz.
 1. Kentucky,  2. Georgia.  3. Vermont,  4. New-York,  5 & 6. Pennsylvania and S. Carolina, which have increased in the same proportion.  7. New-Hampshire,  8 & 9. Massachusetts & North-Carolina, which have increased in the same proportion,  10. Virginia,  11. New-Jersey,  12. Delaware,  13. Connecticut,  15. Rhode-Island,  14. Maryland. 
It is greatly to be regretted that the late Congress, which passed the act fixing the mode of taking the census, did not, as requested by several learned societies, direct a designation of the various descriptions of citizens. Such designation would have correctly illustrated the existing state of society, would have exhibited with precision the channels in which industry flowed, would have shown what were filled and what were unoccupied; and would have been of essential service to the federal and state governments by facilitating the acquisition of just ideas of the operation of any particular tax proposed.
It would have been interesting to the historian, at some future day, to have traced the relative growth of agriculture, trade and manufactures; and the moralist might not have been unproductively engaged in estimating the degrees of virtue and prosperity which accompanied their several states.
But this measure, though sanctioned by the House of Representatives, was rejected by the senate; and we can only now regret that it was rejected, and recommence its adoption at some future day.
The above view enables us to throw but an imperfect light upon the relative growth of the agricultural and commercial interests. As such it is offered.
The reader will observe that the advanced population of all the states, according to the above table, is represented by the figures 6.14.
If we consider the states of Massachusetts, Rhode-Island, New-York, Pennsylvania, Maryland, and South-Carolina as commercial , the amount of their advanced population, as appears above, is 1.39
While that of New-Hampshire, Connecticut, Vermont, New-Jersey, Delaware, Virginia, North-Carolina, Georgia and Kentucky, considering them as agricultural states, is
4.75
Difference 3.36
From which it follows that the agricultural states have gained numbers in the above proportion over the commercial states; which is in the proportion of 3 to 1.

The Bank of the United States has determined to establish a Branch Bank in this City. Some measures have already been taken to put the Bank into operation. James Davidson, jun. of Philadelphia, has been appointed Cashier; and the Directors are to be chosen in the beginning of October.
We congratulate our fellow citizens on the numerous benefits and conveniences likely to flow from this institution.

Extract of a letter from Lisbon, dated 28th July 1801.
"The peace between this country and France still remains unsettled. The Duke de la Foen has been at last superceded by the count de Goltz, as commander in chief. It is generally, however, thought that an amicable arrangement between the two countries will soon be accomplished through the mediation of Spain."
AUGUSTA, SEPT. 5.
The following extract of a letter from president Meigs, to a friend in this place, who has handed it to us for publication, will be found to contain some curious and interesting facts; the result of careful observation and experiment respecting the place selected for the seat of the University of Georgia.
ATHENS, August, 29, 1801.
"In descending the eastern banks of the Oconee river, we discover through the trees captain Easley's house, in which I now reside, which appears to be on the top of a mountain. After passing the ford, which is about 120 or 130 feet wide, thro' a rapid stream which has just tumbled over the rocks below Easley's dam, about 150 yards above the ford, we ascend the promontory about 750 yards along the winding path, and arrive at the brow. A little northward of this is the place marked out for a future collegiate building. By a water level I have found the surface at that place one hundred and sixty-one feet perpendicular above the level of the waters of the Oconee at the ford. This promontory runs nearly level, a northwesterly course, through the tract, as far as I have examined. From the site of the building the land falls off gently and beautifully to the east and south-west. On the east the land is cleared, and has now on it a flourishing crop of corn, cotton and potatoes;
a young orchard of apple trees, and one of peach trees; westerly is woodland.
The banks of the Oconee are bold, steep and abrupt—the rocks appearing in many parts. It is obvious that no fears can be entertained of unwholesome vapors from a river of this description, even though there is a small mill pond in it, for the water is confined by steep banks, and there is a constant discharge over the dam in such quantity, that the whole mass of the water in the pond is in motion at all times. It cannot therefore be supposed capable of generating poisonous miasmata. It is a fact that if the pond were empty, on shutting the gates it would fill and fall over the top in an hour and a half in the driest season.
At 130 yards from this house is a spring emerging from a rock, which yields 3,600 gallons of good water in 24 hours, as I found by experiment a few days ago—there are about ten other springs, within a quarter of a mile of the collegiate building—the water of these springs is perfectly pure, clear, and as cool as it ought to be for health.
I have frequently amused myself in some of the fine mornings in the vapors rising swiftly in various forms from the river and tending away towards the rising sun, sweeping over the thick woods which cover the steep eastern banks of the Oconee.
After duly considering this description, which is true and exact, you will be ready to believe the committee have made a judicious choice, so far as health was an object. I should have added to the above account, that we are open to every wind of heaven. A calm is seldom known here—and the breezes, particularly from the western semicircle of the horizon, are extremely pleasant—we have generally a pure deep sky, and the clouds are more distinct and consolidated than they appear to be in the low country—in a clear evening the stars and other celestial bodies appear in such numbers and brilliancy as in our intensely cold and clear evenings to the northward, or as they did to Brydone from the top of Mount Etna. If there is a healthy and beautiful spot in Georgia, this is one.
Provisions are cheap and abundant—board may be had at about sixty dollars a year; and if fifty or a hundred young gentlemen should be admitted into the university, a steward could board them all at one table, at a much smaller price; if the citizens of the middle and lower counties wish their children to be educated within their native state, and to be secure of health and good spirits, and good wholesome food, and decent society, they will, on a thorough view and consideration of these and other facts which might be adduced, highly approve the judgment and foresight of the gentlemen of the committee who have placed the seat of the University at Athens."

(In a neat pocket volume handsomely printed—price 66 2 3 cents) By JOHN V. THOMAS, And sold by him at his Book-store, near the Coffee-House, The Black Alley, A ROMANTIC TALE, Translated from the German.
THIS tale is written in a manner at once simple, entertaining and highly interesting. The characters are strongly marked—The passions are expressed with vehemence—that of Love in particular, with gay but not indecent luxuriance. One of the English reviews, in noticing this little work, says it is "related with much animation, and embellished with decorations of style; and the translator has displayed great ability and uncommon command of language—I would, therefore, recommend the performance to the attention of every class of readers, with a promise of not a little amusement, and much elegant improvement."
