LEBOO
WILL cover the ensuing season, to commence the first day of April, and end on the last day of June, on Mondays and Tuesdays at Queen Anne's Wednesdays and Thursdays at the farm of the subscriber, and Fridays and Saturdays at Bladensburg; at the rate of 16 dollars per Mare, cash, and half a dollar to the groom; the money to the groom to be paid with the mare, and a note for the balance, with the assumption of Messrs. Baggett or Hodges, of Queen Anne, or Messrs. Lowndes or Bruce, of Bladensburg, payable on the first day of December next, will be received.
Leboo is eight years old, a fine bright bay, 15 hands three inches high, a star and two white feet. He has proven himself both a sire and good foal-getter, having covered at four years old 25 mares, all of whom proved with foal; the colts are equal in size and beauty to any in this part of the country, and except in two instances, they were alike as to colour. At four years old Leboo won the colt's purse at Annapolis; on the next day he won the City purse, and on the third day he won the purse in Prince George's county, immediately after having travelled upwards of 30 miles. The next spring, at 5 years old, he won the first day's purse at Canton; the fall after he ran against Mr. Taylor's Leviathan at Alexandria, one heat, was lame and drawn; a few days after he won the first day's purse at Govan's town. At 6 years old he won the first day's purse at Canton; the fall after he won the purse again at Canton, the jockey club purse at Govan's town, the purse at Frederick town, and the city of Washington; running nine miles, by mistake, at the left mentioned place, beating Mr. Taylor's Leviathan. At seven years old he received a forfeit of 900 dollars at Havre-de-Grace, proceeded on to German town, won the first heat, afterwards fell lame, and was beat by Gen. Rugeley's Hambletonian, whom he had beaten three times before.
Leboo was got by High Flier, his blood and figure equal to that of any other horse, and his pedigree may be seen by applying to the subscriber.

Columbian Library.
AT a meeting of the Shareholders of the Columbian Library on Saturday last, Stephen B. Batch, Joseph Norrie, Thomas Turner, John Craven, Francis Lowndes, jun. and Adam King, were chosen directors for the ensuing year.
Resolved, that the price of shares to new subscribers be hereafter, at the rate of 15 dollars a share—and that all shares heretofore subscribed for, and on which there are arrearages due prior to the 1st day of January last, be forfeited, unless the said arrearages be paid on or before the first day of August next—and it is hereby declared to be the duty of the Librarian, to consider and enter as forfeited, all the aforesaid shares on which the arrearages shall not be paid as aforesaid.
Resolved also, that the annual payment be two dollars, for the present year. Extract from the minutes. DAVID WILEY, Sec'y.
It may be worthy of notice, that all who have ever held shares in the Library, and have not transferred them, will still be entitled to them, upon paying off the arrearages, as above; that a considerable number of new books have been provided within the last year; that the support and encouragement of the institution may be both honorable and useful that the Library is kept open for the delivery and return of books every Wednesday and Saturday afternoon, from 3 o'clock till 5 o'clock—that every share is entitled to two books at one time, and may keep them out fourteen days—that other persons may have access to the books with the Share-holders, on paying, in advance, for one year, four dollars, for one quarter of a year, one and an half dollars; and for one month, half a dollar giving competent security for the return of the books.
The Books are kept in an apartment of the Columbian Academy. George-Town, pri I. eozt iaw1fA

TOUSSAINT to BONAPARTE.
[The following has been communicated to us as the answer of the Black Chief to the letter of the First Consul requiring his unconditional submission to the mother republic. We cannot vouch for its authenticity, though the reasoning of it appears perfectly just.]
London paper.
Toussaint Louverture to Gen. Bonaparte First Consul of the French Republic, Nov. 19, 1801.
CITIZEN CONSUL, Your letter of the 27th Brumaire, has been transmitted to me by Citizen Leclerc, your brother-in-law, whom you have appointed Captain General of this Island, a title not recognized by the constitution of St. Domingo. The fame messenger has restored two innocent children to the fond embraces of a doting father. What a noble instance of European humanity! But, dear as those pledges are to me, and painful as our separation is, I will owe no obligations to my enemies, and I therefore return them to the custody of their gaolers.
The forces necessary to make the sovereignty of the French people respected, have effected a landing also, and they are spreading slaughter and desolation around them. Why is it thus? For what crimes, and by what authority, are a rude and insensitive people to be consumed by fire and by the sword? We have dated, it seems, to form a constitution adapted to our circumstances; containing, as you admit, many good things, but containing others, forsooth, derogatory from the sovereignty of the French people. In whom does it reside, and how far does it extend? Is it to be beyond control, without measure, and without bounds?
St. Domingo, a colony forming an integral part of the French republic, aim at independence, it is said. Why should it not? The United States of America did the same, and with the assistance of Monarchical France they succeeded and established it. But there are defects as well as presumption in our constitution. I know there are. What human institution is without them? Yet I will challenge that system you have imposed upon the republic you govern, to shew a greater regard to personal or political liberty, to the freedom of speech or the freedom of man.
The high situation I fill is not of my own choosing; it has been forced upon me by imperious circumstances; I have not overturned a constitution I have sworn to maintain. I saw this wretched Isle a prey to frantic and contending factions. My character, my complexion, gave me some influence with the people who inhabit it, and I was almost by their unanimous voice called to authority. I crushed sedition; I put down rebellion; I restored tranquility; I established order in the place of anarchy; I gave them peace, & I gave them a constitution. Have you Citizen Consul, another or a nearer title to the commanding situation you occupy? If they enjoy not under it as great a portion of liberty as is to be found under other governments, the cause is in their habits of life and in the ignorance and barbarity inseparable from a state of slavery. I established for an unfortunate race of beings that they were just loosed from the yoke, the only system or rule that was suited to their conditions or capacities. That it leaves room, in many instances for coercion and despotism cannot be denied; but it is the constitution of the Republic of France—the most enlightened part of enlightened Europe—quite free from them? If thirty millions of Frenchmen find their happiness and security, as I am told, in the revolution of the 18th Brumaire, surely I should not be envied the love and confidence of the poor blacks, my countrymen. It will be for posterity to decide, whether we have ruled through affection or through apathy and fear.
You offer freedom to the blacks, and say, that in all the countries you have been in, you have given it to the people who had it not. I am not perfectly acquainted with the circumstances that have recently happened in Europe, but the reports that have reached me do not accord with this assertion. In fact, it is of little consequence. The liberty that is to be found in France, or Belgium, or Helvetia, or in the Republics of Batavia, Lagunian, or Corsica, would never be cordially received, or sincerely acquainted in by the people of St. Domingo. Such changes, or such freedom, are far from being desired ever by us.
You ask me, 'do I desire consideration, honours and fortune?' Men can
tainly I do, but not of thy giving. My consideration is placed in the respect of my countrymen, my honours in their attachment, my fortune in their distinguished fidelity. Has this mean idea of personal aggrandizement been held out, in the hope that I would be induced thereby to betray the cause I have undertaken? You should learn to estimate the moral principle in other men by thyself. If the person who claims a right to that throne on which you are seated, were to call on you to descend from it, what would be your answer? The power I possess has been legitimately acquired as your own, and not by the decided voice of the people of St. Domingo shall compel me to relinquish it.
It is not cemented by blood, or maintained by the artifices of European policy. The ferocious men whose persecution I put a stop to, have confessed my clemency, and I have pardoned the wretch whose dagger has been aimed at my life. If I have removed from this island certain turbulent spirits, who strove to feed the flames of war, their guilt has been first established before a competent tribunal, and finally confessed by themselves. Is there one of them who can say he has been condemned unheard or untried? And yet these monsters are to be brought back once more, and, aided by the blood hounds of Cuba, are to be uncoupled and hallowed to hunt us down and devour us; and this by men who dare to call themselves christians! Why should it excite your praise and surprise that I have upheld the religion and worship of God, from whom all things come! Alas! that all boons are being, whose holy word has but lately found favour in your Republic, by me has ever been honoured and glorified. In his protecting care I have sought for safety & consolation, amidst dangers and difficulties, when encompassed by treachery and treason, and I was never disappointed. Before him and you I am, as you say, to be the person principally responsible for the massacres and murders that are perpetrating in this devoted Isle. Be it so. In his all just and dread disposal be the issue of this contest. Let him decide between me and my enemies; between those who have violated his precepts, abjured his holy Name, and one who has never ceased to acknowledge and adore him.
(Signed)

POINT OF HONOUR.
Our readers may have heard much of the etiquette of diplomacy in modern times, and it has even been asserted that General Andreossi refused to leave Paris until he heard of Lord Whitworth's landing at Calais. But this story falls far short of what happened in France some years before the French revolution, by two ladies, who disputed a point of honour:
The wives of M. Fayer, auditor of accounts, and M. Marceau, treasurer of France, happened to meet in their coaches at the end of Street Des Coquilles, with a design to pass through it. The street was so narrow it would not admit of two carriages; they each entered the street at opposite ends, and neither would draw back; for, alas! punctilio of honour prevented either from doing so. They both remained firm in their coaches from an early hour in the morning till the afternoon, when they sent their lacqueys for oats and hay for their horses, and ordered dinner to be brought to their coaches. At length, a citizen of Paris passing home, who lived in the street, and had a cart laden with wine, finding he could not get to his house at either end, went and made a complaint to the commissary, who, finding the ladies equally obstinate, and neither willing to give way, and being unwilling to offend either, with true French ceremony, ordered both coaches to put back at the same time, and that neither should enter the street again, to the great satisfaction of a crowd who had collected together. This accommodation was accepted, as the ladies were heartily tired of the trouble they were involved in, and perfectly satisfied they had preserved their honour!
Having observed the punctilios of two French ladies, we may notice that of a Spanish lady. When the queen-mother of Spain died, early in the last century, the contable and grandees met according to custom, and sent to the chief lady of the queen's chamber, who ought to be one of the affably. She answered it was the duty of her employer to stay by the body of her mistress, and therefore they must to her. They answered,

It appears from all the accounts that have been received from Paris, that Bonaparte was by no means prepared to expect such vigorous preparations on our part. As soon as the message arrived, a council of state was called, which sat from 7 in the morning till 11 at night. Censors were immediately dispatched to Vienna, Berlin, Petersburg and Italy.
We have already said, that we suspect Bonaparte will do every thing in his power to procrastinate. Our ministers, however, are determined not to permit a single day's negotiation. The following observations in a paper connected with the war, coincide with those which we expressed in our paper on Thursday: "The present state of the war, with respect to which his Majesty's ministers, we have no doubt, will provide as far as such an occurrence can be provided against, by the alliance and agreement, will not suffer the present crisis to pass without coming to some precise and specific settlement upon all the objects now under discussion—and they are fully aware that nothing would be so disadvantageous to the nation as to permit the present negotiation to be suspended out of the present, if any such attempt should be made, we are satisfied they are fully determined to resist it. Having armed, they will not disarm, without placing every point under discussion in a satisfactory form."
"We heartily wish that we could trust as implicitly to the disposition of the First Consul, as we are sure we may to that of his Majesty's Ministers. That without recurring to causes of discontent and disagreement, which may have taken place since the treaty of Amiens, without having recourse to mutual recriminations, circumstances may admit of conciliation, and that we may be permitted to look with confidence for the future—but if an inordinate ambition induces the First Consul of France to annex continually new territories to the Republic, to extend his views to projects repugnant to British interests, treaties once signed, but jealousies will exist incompatible with the true spirit of peace." Government, we have been informed this morning, expect to receive a definitive answer from Bonaparte to night. Their ultimatum was despatched on Tuesday last, and as we understand, an immediate reply was demanded; they are in expectation of dispatches to night or to-morrow morning that will decide the question of Peace or War.
Shoals war be declared, government of course will not let a French ship come out of any of the French ports. The shipwrights and caulkers employed in the merchant yards in the river, have made an offer to the admiralty of their services to be employed in any yard their Lordships may direct, to assist in equipping the fleet. This offer is not accepted, the authorities in the yards being equal to all the duty.
Lord Keith arrived at Plymouth on Thursday morning, and immediately hoisted his flag on board the Gulloden of 74 guns.
An English vessel arrived on Wednesday night from La Hogue. She failed from thence last Sunday evening in consequence of the battle and confusion that was going on at La Hogue and Cherbourg. She was about to load officers for London, and was heaving out ballast for that purpose; but from the warlike appearance of affairs in that neighbourhood, the captain thought it most prudent to leave it as a possible. Tickets were leaving at the houses of all those connected with the army, and the utmost confusion reigned prevails.
The rumours of changes in the Administration, are, we understand, un-founded:—Earl St. Vincent, we rejoice to hear, remains in office.
March [evening] 19. We have been favoured with a copy of very interesting letters, for the authenticity of which we can vouch relative to the evacuation of the Cape of Good Hope. It will be seen, that if the orders for keeping possession of it had arrived five hours later, it would now have been in the hands of the Dutch troops. The whole of the business relating to the orders and counter orders of Ministers on this subject, is at present involved in complete mystery. It is plain, however that upwards of six months ago Ministers thought measures of precaution necessary.
PARIS, March 14. There was yesterday, as usual, a grand circle at the Thuilleries. The ambassadors of the different powers were in the saloon, with a numerous assemblage of strangers and ladies of distinction, generals, senators, tribunes, legislators, &c. &c.
Bonaparte entered with an unusual alertness of manner, and after saluting the company, he addressed himself to Lord Whitworth, in a tone sufficiently loud to be heard by all who were present—"You know, my lord, that a terrible storm has arisen between England and France."
Lord Whitworth—"Yes, General Consul; but it is to be hoped that this storm will be dissipated without any serious consequences." Bonaparte—"It will be dissipated
when England shall have evacuated Malta. If not, the cloud will burst, and the bolt must fall. The king of England has promised by treaty to evacuate that place, and who is to violate the faith of treaties?"
Lord Whitworth [surprised on finding himself questioned in this manner, as a before to many persons] "But you know, General Consul, the circumstances which have hitherto delayed the evacuation of Malta. The intention of my sovereign is to fulfil the treaty of Amiens; and you know all."
Bonaparte—"You know (with impetuosity) that the French have carried on the war for ten years, and you cannot doubt but that they are in a condition to wage it again. Inform your court, that if, on the receipt of your dispatches, orders are not issued for the immediate surrender of Malta, then War is declared—I declare my firm resolution is to see the treaty carried into effect, and leave it to the Ambassadors of the several powers, who are present, to say who is in the wrong. You flattered yourselves that France would not dare to shew her reluctance whilst her Rations were at St. Domingo. I am happy thus publicly to announce you on that head."
Lord Whitworth—"But, General, the Negotiation is not yet broken, and there is even reason to hope it will be continued."
Bonaparte—"Of what negotiation do you speak? Is it necessary to negotiate what is conceded by treaty—to negotiate the fulfilment of engagements, and the duties of good faith? [Lord Whitworth was about to reply, Bonaparte made a sign with his hand, and continued in a less elevated tone.] My lord, your lady is indisposed. She may probably break her native air rather sooner than you or I expected. I will most ardently for peace, but if my just demand be not instantly complied with, then war must follow, and God will decide. If treaties are not sufficient to bind to peace, then the vanquished must not be left in a condition to offer injury."
Here this unexpected conversation terminated, if that term be allowed, where the discourse was almost wholly on one side.
Bonaparte afterwards walked up and down the hall, and discoursed with several persons with an assumed air of gaiety. To the English, however, who met his eye, his regards were limited to a cold salute.
This scene is so important in its nature and consequences, and at the same time so new in diplomatic history, that I have taken much pains to get at its details. The auditors were numerous and attentive; but some difficulty arose from the quickness of the parties, as the reply did not always very graciously await the answer. Some traits of extreme vivacity on the part of the First Consul, I do not choose to hazard. In other respects the text, I believe is faithful, and I leave it to you to make the comment.

Extract of a Letter dated Eddyville, March 10, 1803. "It is with extreme regret I have to inform you that a Chickasaw Indian was murdered in this town on Monday last. The circumstances are nearly as follows: Six Indians of the Chickasaw nation, who had been hunting on the south side of Cumberland, came into this town and sold a quantity of venison, turkeys, &c. They went to a tavern and drank pretty freely. After night two of them left the tavern, and it appears were followed by two men by the name of Cook and Furguson, with each a large club—These men concealed themselves within the yard of Mr. J. W. Thwee, and as the Indians came through the gate, struck them. One fell—the other made his escape. The shock of the club was heard by Mr. Thwee's family; some neighbours were alarmed & ran to the aid of the Indian, who was at length found under a fence, with his head beat to pieces in a barbarous manner. He was removed to a house and his wounds dressed by a physician; but he died the Wednesday following. The other Indian was not very badly hurt."
On Friday a court was called, and Matthew Cook, J. Furguson, & Reuben Cook were apprehended. M. Cook made his escape from the officer. The other two were committed to jail, and are to have their trial before the circuit court in May next. The other five Indians have set off for the nation. They carried letters to their Chief, informing him of the above circumstances, & requesting one of the Chiefs with an interpreter to attend the trial.
"Every kindness and attention was shewn to the Indians. The dead was decently interred, with which they seemed satisfied; but when they took their leave they made signs that the prisoners must be hanged. It is said that some of the friends of the prisoners have threatened a rescue, and it is expected an attempt will be made. They are guarded at night by seven or eight men. What the consequence will be God only knows. Several families who settled on the other side of Cumberland this spring, have moved back since this unfortunate affair took place."
Captain Von Biburg, of the Swedish service, has invented a machine for swimming, and floating on the water without the danger of drowning. As a reward for this discovery, his Swedish Majesty has granted him a sum of 2000 rig dollars, and also an exclusive privilege for 25 years to execute and sell this swimming machine for his private emolument.
When Bonaparte was told that La Harpe had embraced Christianity in his last moments. "I hope, said he, that the embrace was mutual!"
An Irish newspaper observes, that excellent London porter is now brewed in Dublin.
The following note bene was actually lately put at a skinner and pelt manufacturer's address, in the country. "Gen-
tlmen waited upon for their skins at their own houses."
Bonaparte may exclaim with Seneca, "Nothing is wanting to my fortune but moderation;" it would be for the happiness of Europe, as well as for his own glory, if he thought with the philosopher, or learnt the wholesome truth from Tacitus, nec unquam satis fida potentia, ubi nimia est.
Henry Hutchinson, late Provost of Trinity College, and Father of Dudley, on his full introduction into the Irish Parliament, delivered a speech of considerable length on the rapid increase of the prosperity of Ireland. Counselor Calcutt, a member of the same Parliament, listened with great attention to the young orator's flowery declamation; and, when he had done, the Counselor got up, and expressed the satisfaction he felt on hearing that this, his native country, was in such a flourishing state. "When," added he, "that youthful Senator got up to speak, I had three halfpence in my pocket, and I am sure they must be three guineas now! Let me see." On which he put his hand into his pocket, pulled them out, and having looked at them for a moment, exclaimed, "Oh, by my soul, they are halfpence still."
Extract of a letter from Bonaparte at Toulon, to a young American then at Bordeaux, but lately arrived in the United States.
"You soon depart for the Western and I for the Eastern hemisphere. A new career of action is now opened before me, and I hope to unite my name with new and great events, and with the unrivalled greatness of the republic. You go to unite yourself once more with a people among whom I behold at once the simple manners of the first ages of Rome, and the luxury of her decline; where I see the talles, the sensibility & science of Athens, with her fashions, and the valor of Sparta without her discipline. As a citizen of the world, I would address your country in the following language: Every man and every nation is ambitious, and ambition grows with their power as the blaze of a vertical sun is the most fierce. Cherish, therefore, a national strength, strengthen your political institutions—remember that armies and navies are of the same age in the world as the police in London or Paris, and soldiers are not made like potters & vassals in a minute—cultivate union or your empire will be but a colossus of gold fallen on the earth, broken in pieces, and be the prey of foreign or domestic Seracens. If you are wise your republic will be permanent; and all perhaps Washington will be hailed as the founder of a glorious and happy empire, when the name of Bonaparte shall be obscured by succeeding revolutions."
[This was written in 1797, about the time of Bonaparte's departure for Egypt, and may be considered as his ideas of the United States at that time, perhaps at this: 16 April, 1803] True Amer.

New improvements to be applied to the common saw machine now in use for cleaning cotton, invented by Gordon F. Saltonstall a citizen of Fayetteville North-Carolina, for which a patent was granted on the 4th day of January 1803 signed by the President of the United States.
The improvement is for discharging the seed without obtaining as stripped of the cotton.
2nd Improvement consist the machine to feed itself uniformly which saves considerable manual labour.
3rd Improvement carries off the cotton from the machine by means of regular draught of air discharged of moats, and false feeds. Price of a licence for the improvement is one dollar per saw for each machine using the same. But nothing will be required of any person interested in cleaning cotton until they have had the use of either or all the improvements one year.
The patentee has machines begun, on the improved plan, which may be had if applied for soon, at three and an half dollars per saw including a licence.
He has also a valuable patented improvement to be applied to merchant mill for manufacturing flour, and he is now in possession of an operative model, which cools, conveys, and separates the superfine flour, by a very simple, and expeditious method, without the use of a bolting cloth, and is so ingenious as to give his instructions perfectly in some of the most eminent mills northward by gentlemen possessing the same who are pleased to honour him with their patronage, may by applying by letter postage paid receive a bill of the principal material accompanied, if they desire it, with a small sample of the superfine flour which the model brings out.

In Chancery, April 11th, 1803.
The Attorney General, at the Relation and instance of William Lodge and Alexander Adams, versus, Thomas Orme and Thomas Beall of George
The object of the bill is to vacate a Grant issued to THOMAS BEALL of George the defendant, for a tract of land called "Proper Valley" in Montgomery County, or to obtain a conveyance to the relators of so much thereof as is included in a Certificate of Survey, in the name of the relators called "Hart's come at," and for an account of the profits thereof.
The bill states, that the relators obtained a land warrant to effect vacant land in said county, that it was located with the surveyor of the county on the land afterwards included in the last mentioned survey. That THOMAS ORME obtained the assignment of a warrant that had issued to a certain Patrick Magruder, that at the time he obtained the warrant, it was out of date, but that he fraudulently made the survey first mentioned and antedated it, so as to bring it within the time the warrant was by law admitted to operate, that the assignment of the warrant, if at all made to Beall, in whose name the survey was made, was also antedated, that the survey was made for the use and benefit of Orme, who was then a deputy surveyor of the county aforesaid, and to whom Beall has since the patent conveyed the land, and that Beall resides in the District of Columbia.
It is thereupon on the motion of the complainants ordered, that they cause a copy of this order to be inserted, at least once in each of three successive weeks in the National Intelligencer of the City of Washington, before the fifth day of May next to the end, that the said Beall may have notice of this application and of the subject and object of this bill, and may be warned to appear in the Court in person or by a solicitor on or before the 6th day of September next, to show cause why a decree should not pass as prayed.
