Daily Gazette, 6 Dollars per annum. Country Gazette, 5 Dollars.
At a numerous and respectable meeting of the Republican Freeholders of Fairfax County, Virginia, held at the Tavern of Resin Wilcoxen on Monday the 3d day of October 1808, agreeably to public notice.—General THOMPSON MASON, was appointed Chairman, and
JOHN C. HUNTER, Secretary.
On motion, the following gentlemen were appointed a committee for the purpose of draughting Resolutions expressive of the sentiments of the Meeting. Gen. Thompson Mason, John C. Hunter, George Graham, George Summers, Humphey Peake, Henry Rose, William Moss, James Waugh, Francis Coffer, George Minor, and Lewis Summers. The committee retired, and in a short time reported the following which were unanimously adopted.
Resolved , That our confidence in the wisdom, patriotism, and integrity, of the President and Congress of the United States, is undiminished—and that the just, pacific and strictly neutral conduct which our executive government has prescribed to itself and which it has firmly and undeviatingly pursued in all its relations and intercourse with foreign nations, commands our highest approbation, and entitles it to our most zealous support.
Resolved , That the Decrees of the French Government, and British Orders in Council, were not only such outrages on our rights, but were also such direct attacks on our Independence, as imperiously to call on our government for prompt and efficacious measures to counteract them—that to it were left the alternatives only of war with all or one of the belligerent powers—or of submission to the most flagrant violation of national right and national independence—or a temporary abandonment of the ocean, until the pelting of the storm should have passed by. To have waged war against all the belligerent powers would have been Quixotic—Against either of them would have necessarily entangled us in alliances with the others, a policy so emphatically deprecated by the great Washington. To have submitted would have been a pusillanimous sacrifice of national honor and independence. To have relinquished our pursuits on the ocean for a time, seems to have been that measure to which our government was imperiously urged by every dictate of humanity, as well as sound policy. It has certainly preserved us from becoming a party in one of the most desolating wars that ever disgraced the annals of man. It has saved to us a number of our fellow-citizens and an immense value of property that was afloat on the ocean; it has given the belligerent powers time to revise their conduct under the pressure of these inconveniences which that conduct brought upon themselves; and it has preserved to us unsullied our national honor and independence, at the expence certainly of many individual pecuniary sacrifices; but they are sacrifices to patriotism, and we cheerfully make them.
Resolved , That although we think every man who is not disposed to sacrifice the good of his country to personal or party aggrandizement, ought at all times to be exceedingly cautious in publicly disapproving of and protesting against such measures as his government may have taken to coerce foreign powers into a respect for its rights—yet if any of our citizens choose so to do, in a candid and respectful manner, we know of no right that any other portion of them have to object; but when such seditions and disorganizing sentiments, such base, unfounded and malicious calumnies against our government, as are contained in an address to the president of the United States from certain persons styling themselves a committee of the people of Augusta county, are attempted to be disseminated among the people by party men, for party purposes, we think it the duty of every good man, of every party, to come forward and express his decided disapprobation and utmost abhorrence of such proceedings.
Resolved , That whatever differences of opinion may have existed among us, as to the propriety of the original nomination of a fit republican character to fill the office of president of the United States, we are now called upon, by every principle of patriotism, to sacrifice those differences at the altar of the public good, and to the promotion of the general cause of republicanism—therefore, having great confidence in the talents and integrity of James Madison , we will
zealously support him, at the ensuing election, for president of the U. S.
Resolved , That we will also zealously support the election of George Clinton , as Vice-President of the United States—the whole tenor of his life, as well as his decided and marked disapprobation and reprehension of the conduct of Aaron Burr in the election of President in the year 1801, are sure pledges to us, that he never will disappoint the wishes of the great mass of his friends by the aid of his enemies.
Resolved , That the foregoing proceedings be signed by the Chairman and Secretary, and published in the National Intelligencer , and the Alexandria Daily Gazette .
THOMPSON MASON, CHAIRMAN.
JOHN C. HUNTER, Sec'y.
From the Norfolk Ledger .
PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION.
The character of this paper, to express ourselves in the language of party, is most decidedly federal. We do not therefore notice the proceedings of the federalists at Staunton , which are inserted in this paper, with indifference. They have claimed our most serious attention, and should have received our most zealous co-operation, if the reasons which we shall presently state did not induce us to hesitate upon the propriety of such co-operation.
The law of this state, for choosing electors, (as it was intended) excludes the minority from any of the advantages of suffrage. They have, however, a right to express their opinions, and before we saw the Staunton proceedings, we did hope that every federalist in the state would vote at the approaching election, and by that vote express his opinion on the leading measures of the present administration. It was, however, evident that without some concerted plan, such an opinion could not be expressed for want of proper characters being previously designated as candidates. It is well known that during the last winter, two tickets were formed in this state, one in favor of Mr. Madison and the other in favor of Mr. Monroe. It being a matter well understood, that in all the great and leading measures, that Mr. Madison, if elected, would pursue the course marked out by his predecessor, no person, who disapproved of the measures of the present administration, could vote for Mr. Madison's ticket, without committing an act of the greatest inconsistency in politics. We may say, that in general, the federalists of this state have disapproved of the measures of the present administration.—We believe that without having any concerted plan with the friends of Mr. Monroe, that the federalists would have voted for Mr. Monroe's ticket. In this way they would have expressed their disapprobation of the measures of which they have complained. It has prevailed, that the friends of Mr. Monroe had declined the proposed contest. It appears however, from the address of the committee of Mr. Monroe's friends, published in this paper, that they have determined to persevere. What course then are the federalists to pursue? The address from Mr. Monroe's friends is plain, and may be considered as pledging Mr. Monroe upon some leading points, particularly the cruel measure of the embargo, and upon our future intercourse with foreign nations. War or Perpetual Embargo; Peace and Commerce are the questions? To avoid the two former, and to secure the two latter, our exertions must be directed. If there was a hope, that a federal ticket could prevail in this state, it cannot be supposed that the editor of this paper, would permit local state partiality or personal respect, to govern him in declining his co-operation with his federal brethren. Believing as we most sincerely do believe, that if the present course of measures are not arrested, that even the UNION, that rock of our political safety, will cease to exist twelve months longer—we must be allowed to pursue a course for ourselves. As every calamity which could befall us as a nation, is included in the separation of the states, we shall enumerate no others. The impossibility of succeeding with a federal ticket is to us so evident, that we think any calculation upon the subject would be thrown away. In conclusion, we hope that the federalists of this state, will reflect seriously upon the present crisis; and that the result of their reflections will produce a determination to give their unanimous suffrages for the ticket of Mr. Monroe.
We know that a number of federalists have serious objections in voting for a person whose political sentiments are not in accordance with their own. But the true question is, do they prefer a person with whom they differ on some points, to one, with whom they differ in every point? Would the federalists vote for Mr. Madison's ticket? They surely would not. There is then no difference between voting in favor of that ticket, and so voting as to give it the best, perhaps the only certain chance of success.
Without considering many other circumstances, the manner in which Mr. Madison has been brought forward is so reprehensible that it is the duty of every citizen, who desires to maintain the principles of our consti-
tution in their purity, to resist its assumption of power by the members of the federal legislature.
The federalists of this state must be satisfied that there is not sufficient time to form a federal ticket before the election comes on.
It is believed if this state was laid into electoral districts, that a majority of the electors would be found against Mr. Madison. Four if not five would be federal—eight or nine would return friends to Mr. Monroe.
The votes of North Carolina, will be as we are well informed, as follows:
 Federal 5  Mr. Monroe 5  Mr. Madison 4

EXTRACTS
From the Address of Naturalized Irishmen to their Countrymen.
“Some of our countrymen have complained, that the resentment excited against those unworthy characters, who abuse the liberty they enjoy by deceiving the people, and defaming their fellow citizens, is expressed in general terms against the Irish; and that no care is taken to distinguish between the good and the abandoned. There is, perhaps, some truth in this complaint, for the language of resentment does not descend to nice discriminations: We, however, know that no such general implication is intended, and that none have been more ready than the Americans to acknowledge the error. But do not our own countrymen themselves in some degree lay the foundation of the error? Do not those discontented and ambitious men, who are a disgrace to the Irish name, speak of the Irish as if the whole were enlisted in their service, and acting in a body, as a separate and independent party? Do not some of the Irish hold meetings and issue addresses in the name of the whole, and addressed to the whole? Is it then a matter of surprize, that the opponents of those pretended organs of the Irish should occasionally answer them in the same general language?
That our native country discharges from its shores many of the most turbulent, factious and criminal of her sons, whose objects in their adopted country, are to organize factions, domineer and persecute, cannot be denied. That these men, whatever may be their professions, are the most dangerous enemies of free government and the happiness of the people, is equally true.—Yet the objects of the great number are to obtain a safer asylum from oppression, the benefits of their industry and enterprise, and an equal participation of the rights and privileges enjoyed by those among whom they have come to reside. Is it not then the duty of those to disavow an alliance with the corrupters of public opinion, who have shamefully deserted the standard of honor and truth, and who are endeavoring to prostitute the generous warmth of Irish friendship, and national attachment, to promote the cause of ambition and self-interest? We think it cannot be too earnestly impressed on the minds of our fellow emigrants, that, however we may indulge natal prepossessions in our private capacity, when we come to act in a political one, there it ought to cease. If we form a distinct political corps will it not become necessary for the native Americans to rouse and unite in their own defence, in opposition to us? Should this be the case who will pretend to calculate the consequences? The father will be opposed to the son, and the son to the father: domestic happiness will be banished from fa-
milies; and the progress of this dreadful calamity may only end with an exterminating civil war, and when a Napoleon commands peace.
We cannot be insensible, friends and countrymen, to the great privileges we enjoy as American citizens; and the obligations we are under for their attendant blessings, both religious and civil; nor how much the cause of liberty is concerned, that we should perform our political duties in the most interested manner, and with a single eye to the public good. Let us not be induced to the benefits arising from a friendly intercourse among all the citizens, and the danger of exciting or cherishing faction and party spirit. To be informed and enlightened, is necessary to ascertain facts, and know the truth. Let our conduct then, shew our detestation and abhorrence of those who would corrupt the sources of public information on occasions the most important. Let us support the character of a nation from which we are descended, in our adopted country.
Mr. Jefferson says of foreigners emigrating to America, “They will bring with them the principles of the government they have imbibed in their early youth; or, if able to throw them off, it will be in exchange for an unbounded licentiousness, passing as it were, from one extreme to another. It would be a miracle were they to stop precisely at the point of temperate liberty.” Let us, fellow citizens, while we receive this opinion as a serious admonition, convince Mr. Jefferson and the world, that there are exceptions to this rule; and that the great body of the Irish emigrants are qualified republicans, and not unworthy of being citizens and supporters of the last republican government in the world; that Irishmen renowned for their courage and victories, can, like American heroes, who achieved the independence of their country, be victorious over themselves.
BY THIS DAY'S MAIL.
NEW-YORK, October 8.
Late News from Spain.
Capt. Warder of the ship Camilla , left Cadiz on the 27th of August. He informs that Joseph Bonaparte (the mushroom king of Spain) had reached Madrid, but was retreating his steps back to the frontiers. The French after nearly destroying the town, had been driven out of Barcelona; and at Valencia the French inhabitants had been exterminated by a general massacre. The Spaniards had sprung a mine at Saragossa, by which 8000 Frenchmen fell victims. The British fleet had withdrawn from Cadiz, and the French fleet was laid up. A Spanish 74 sailed about 15 days before Captain Warder for La Vera Cruz and Havana; a frigate was ready to sail for Lima, and a 74 to the southward. It was reported that Junot (whose master had sent him to protect the Portuguese) was to be attacked by the natives and the British on the day Capt. W. left Cadiz. [We have a letter which mentions his defeat and surrender.] The governor of Gibraltar had resigned his situation, in order that he might take the chief command in Lisbon. It was generally believed at Cadiz that the French would be driven from Spain. The Minota gun brig and a sloop of war had arrived at Cadiz from England with eight millions of dollars for the use of the patriots. Bonaparte had returned to Paris, in consequence (as was said) of some of the Northern powers having declared war against him. Such is the substance of the verbal intelligence, received at the office of the Mercantile Advertiser by the Camilla .
From our printed accounts we learn that on the arrival of Dupont at Port St. Mary's town situated on the bay of Cadiz in consequence of the discovery among his baggage of some church plate which had been plundered from Cordova, the populace assembled, and in a tumultuous manner drove off the soldiers who had the charge of it, which they completely ransacked, and carried off whatever was valuable, particularly a great quantity of gold and silver vessels belonging to the Cathedral of Cordova. Dupont by letter demanded restitution of the Governor: to which the latter replied, “I received your letter of yesterday, reclaiming the luggage, &c. destroyed by the populace of St. Mary; and invoking the honor of the Spanish nation. I detest the conduct of the criminals, and I am anxious for the glory of Spain; but your own proceedings have occasioned it; and it could never have been my intention or that of the supreme Junta, that your excellency should carry out of Spain the fruits of your rapacity, cruelty, and irreligion.
Is there in reason any principle which prescribe good faith and humanity to an army which entered the kingdom under the

...of friendship, and robbed it of its sovereignty; at the same time extorting homage to a new one by violence, profaning the sacred temples, and carrying desolation into the royal palaces, the towns, and villages. I will, however, endeavor to secure your personal safety and subsistence, and will take the most effectual measures for your speedy transportation to France, &c. We have little else than Proclamations, inviting the Spaniards to loyalty and perseverance, and to exertion. They are now in the hands of the translator. Captain Wardell is the bearer of dispatches for government.
Extract of a letter from a very respectable American gentleman in Gibraltar, to his friend in this city, dated August 11th, received per ship Camilla, from Cadiz.
"We yesterday received the news of the surrender of the whole French army, under general Junot, at Lisbon, to the British forces—Junot himself a prisoner to the Portuguese and Spaniards. He had attempted to make his escape from his army. Five thousand French troops, in two bodies, that were marching to the relief of Junot, have been totally cut to pieces by the Spaniards, not even one individual escaped."
"Joseph 1st. (as he is ironically called) has fled from Madrid, having first given the place up to pillage to his soldiers, and is supposed to have gone to Catalonia, or more probably to Barcelona, of which place the French have possession."
"Vast tons of silver, and arms and ammunition, for the patriots have arrived at Cadiz from England; and twenty thousand pounds have been advanced by the government here, and about 100,000 dollars by the merchants, and more money is hourly expected from England; in fact, every assistance the British can give, is afforded to the Spaniards."
"Governor Dalrymple has just resigned the command in chief of the garrison, and proceeds to Lisbon to-morrow, to take the command of all the British forces in Spain & Portugal, amounting to about 40,000 men—General Drummond succeeds to the command in chief here."
Extract of a letter from an American gentleman resident in Spain, dated August 26th.
"The extraordinary changes in this country must no doubt influence in some measure the decision which our government may adopt with respect to the embargo.—The success of the Spaniards has been singular; and indeed so much so, that we who are on the spot, and in a great degree eye-witnesses, can hardly credit it. How much more incredible must it appear to those who have always considered the Spaniards as the most degraded people on earth, to find that they have been able with numbers and only half armed to completely beat the conquerors of the world! Saragossa has made itself immortal by its resistance against thirteen attacks of the flower of the French army, commanded by one of its celebrated chiefs. Saragossa is defended by a trifling wall, more intended to check smugglers than for a defence. In the last attack, no longer able to withstand the impetuous ardor of the French troops, they let them into the city; and when about 3000 had advanced a considerable distance, fire was put to trains of powder leading to mines placed under the streets where the French troops were advancing, and above 6000 were destroyed. More than one thousand women fell fighting; and the inhabitants came to a determination to set fire to the whole town, rather than give it up to the French. After the last attack the few remaining troops fled; and we are assured that the province of Arragon is thus cleared of Frenchmen."
"Joseph Bonaparte is at Burgos, having evacuated Madrid. We are this day confidently told that he had begun his march towards France; but that, all Biscay being in arms, he has been obliged to return to Burgos, where he will be very shortly surrounded, and if he does not take care made prisoner."
"We have nothing from France; but from the tardiness of the French troops coming in, it is pretty generally supposed that Bonaparte has got his hands full.—Should the north of Europe rise, he may be made to regret his infamous conduct towards this country."
"We have no certain accounts from Lisbon; but we are glad that we are not to have English troops in Spain. The Spaniards, in fact, do not want any other aid more money and ammunition; they have more men than they can arm, and combined with the Spaniards the French can have no opportunity of intriguing; and left to themselves they have no dissensions to fear."

Our correspondent "Sc." must excuse us—the communications alluded to will do no harm, and we believe are well intended—such motives ought to shield them from ridicule.
DEMOCRATIC MEETING AT FAIRFAX COURT-HOUSE.
WE this day give the proceedings of a Democratic Meeting, held at Fairfax Court-House, Va. on Monday last—at the same time we beg leave most heartily to enter our protest against the sentiments therein contained. That the Republican citizens of Fairfax County, as they are pleased to style themselves, have a right to meet and express their sentiments on any subject they may deem important, is what we shall not attempt to deny; but that they have the privilege when convened for such purpose, to stigmatize persons as respectable as themselves, and who perhaps have quite as much at stake under the government of this country, as themselves, as "seditious, disorganizing calumniators," we believe will be doubted by a great proportion of the honest part of the community, and calls for animadversion.
Mr. Chairman Mason, and Mr. Secretary Hunter, &c. may proclaim to the world their confidence in the "wisdom, patriotism, and integrity of the President, &c." yet we are very much deceived if a large portion of the people of these now United States, do not doubt whether they possess either.
That the French decrees and British orders of Council, were flagrant outrages on our independence, few will deny; but that the latter would never have been issued, must be obvious to every unprejudiced mind, had our executive pursued the course pointed out by a strict adherence to a manly and dignified neutrality, and thereby shown to the tyrant of the continent that we were not that pusillanimous nation he considered us, and the cringing abject policy of this eulogised administration has held up to the eyes of all Europe we were.
It is said there was about sixty persons at the Meeting at Fairfax Court House, on Monday last. Quere —How many of them were Freeholders?
We recommend to the serious consideration of our Virginia readers the remarks on the Presidential Election, by the Editor of the Norfolk Ledger, published in our paper of this day,
Our readers will find in the paper of this day the electoral tickets for Mr. Madison and col. Monroe, republished for the information of the people of Virginia. On a review of the names contained in each, we have no hesitation in saying that as far as our knowledge and information extends, the qualifications (which we should deem of some importance) of talents, property and respectability, are decidedly in favour of the Monroe nomination.

MARYLAND ELECTION.

   Fed. Maj. 649   Fed. Maj. 1806 248   Fed. gain 401

The four in Italics, all good disciples of Washington, and friends to commerce are elected, by an average majority of 438 votes.
From Frederick county we learn that the federal ticket for members of the state legislature has prevailed by a majority of between five and six hundred.
In Charles county, the seat of correct principles, the federal candidates for the state legislature, Messrs. Stuart, Parnham, Chapman and Dorsey, have been also elected by large majorities; and that faithful disciple of Washington, J. Campbell, esq. the present member of Congress, has three or four votes to Major Fenwick's one. The latter is a democrat.
In Prince George's county, our success has fully equalled our expectations, and in Calvert been beyond them.
Baltimore has indeed proved itself a "great sore on the body politic." The democratic majority in the city is something more than 2700; and though we have not heard particularly from the county, we believe there will be 1000 of a majority there. (Wash. Fed.)
Extract of a letter from Prince George's, to the editor of the Washington Federalist, dated Tuesday October 4.
"The four federal candidates of this county are elected by a majority of 80 votes.—Van Horne had a majority over Callis of 8. Calvert county has also elected four federalists."
"Van Horne's majority over Callis arose from several circumstances, principally I believe, from his real popularity with many of the federalists, who could not but highly approve of his independent conduct in Congress—and either would not vote at all for the Congressional election, or voted for him. Besides, until within a week of the election, it was understood by all parties that there would be no opposition to Van Horne; indeed until that time, the Federalists would have supported him against any Federalist; the change and the opposition to him, was occasioned by some imprudent declarations of his, at a public meeting, which perhaps, should not have excited so much resentment as they did.—You know few men in Congress have been more decided in opposition to the ruinous policy of our executive."
Extract of a letter from Liverpool, dated 5th August.
"The Tiger from Philadelphia to Bordeaux, is condemned for having dispatches on board, which she was conveying in a clandestine manner from Tureau to Champagne at Paris—the nature of the dispatches has not transpired, but they are considered important, as relating previously the state of the influence of the French party in America."
In August last, a French privateer, entering the port of Matanzas, was fired upon from the fort, had 3 of her men killed, and was driven on shore; where she was taken possession of by the Spaniards.
A gentleman of respectability who came passenger in the America, states that our dispatch ship, the St. Michaels, was condemned as good prize in France; but that the emperor afterwards gave her up, saying
that he would make her a present to the president of the U. S.
