RICHARD HORWELL.
Runaway Negro.
RAN AWAY from the subscriber, early in July, a negro man named GRESHAW . He is about 36 years of age, 5 feet 11 inches or 6 feet high, of a tawny complexion, has a scar on one of his jaws or side of his face forming a half-circle; I think it is on the right, but am not positive. He is a slim made fellow, with a bushy head, and when spoken to has a scary and down-look. When he went away he had a green round coat, buff colored breeches, with homespun clothing, and has never been accustomed to any work but in the crop or field. I have understood he has crossed the Potomac about Britain's Bay, over into Maryland. I expect he has procured a pass and will endeavor to appear as a freeman. All masters of vessels and others are forewarned from harboring or carrying him away under the penalty of the law.
I will give Twenty Dollars reward if taken in Maryland, or Fifteen if taken in the Northern Neck, so that I get him again, George Christopher.

From the Baltimore Federal Gazette.
In our paper of the 1st instant, we published from the Paris Argus, a number of observations designed, it is supposed, by the French cabinet, to shew the probability of a peace between Great Britain and France. Being favored yesterday with the London Morning Post of the 4th August, we copy the following article as a set-off to the former. How far the speculations of either party will be realized, a few days, we think, will now determine.
The London paper, after mentioning the departure of Lord Lauderdale for the continent, makes the following reflections:
Thus, the negotiations so long concealed under the veil of mystery, and carried on by the intervention of couriers, has at length assumed a decided character. Lord Lauderdale, who has by this time, no doubt, reached France, set out from London, after a cabinet council was held on the subject of the last dispatches received by our government, and is accompanied by Mr. Goddard, who arrived from Paris on Friday last, and who was formerly secretary to Lord Grenville.
What his lordship's powers are, we do not profess to be acquainted with, and what the success of his mission may be, it is impossible to anticipate. Report sends him without credentials, in which case little progress can have yet been made towards a pacification; and the total inconsistency of the ambitious views of the French government with any terms of peace, either fair, safe or honorable for this country, prevents us from being very sanguine with respect to the result of his mission. Yet the experiment is worth a trial; for, however firmly we may be ourselves persuaded of the justice of our cause, it is extremely desirable that the other nations of Europe should be as strongly impressed with the conviction that the calamities arising from a continuation of the war are solely to be attributed to the inordinate views and extravagant pretensions of the French government.
The wish, on the part of our government, to restore peace to this country and to the world, is incontestibly laudable. But whatever may be the value of that desirable blessing, we trust they will not be disposed to purchase it at the price of our future security—at the risk of the only remaining hope of the independence of civilized nations. Britain is at this moment engaged in a contest, on the issue of which the salvation of the world from bondage depends. The object is too noble to be thus abandoned; the desertion of it too base to be gratuitously resorted to. Our ministers are ready to negotiate, but we give them the credit of being determined not to recede one iota from the point of honor, nor to compromise the best interests of the country, and the firmest security of the world beside.
The French journals have frequently stated, and with every appearance of official publication, that the treaty of Amiens was to be the basis of any peace that would be accorded to us by France. But can the treaty of Amiens satisfy our government, or will it be sufficient for the nation? Will any man who reprobated that treaty, and applauded the just and generous principles of the present war, be satisfied with any peace concluded upon such a basis? Are we to sanction all the revolutionary changes, as well as the territorial acquisitions of France in their fullest extent, and at the same time to sneak pitifully away from our own conquests in order to retire within the limits prescribed to us by the treaty of Amiens, according to the French construction of its terms? The idea is monstrous and not to be tolerated. The power of France has undoubtedly been greatly augmented, but the power of England too has had accessions, not only in point of territory, and the consequences of unexampled victories, but from the effectual development of its vast financial and formidable military resources.
Peace is unquestionably an object of the greatest moment to a commercial community; but that cannot be considered a state of peace that would deprive commerce of its essence, freedom of intercourse. After the treaty of Amiens, France excluded our manufactures from her ports; she even went so far as to seize and confiscate them when found in an independent territory (Switzerland) near her frontiers. What has since happened to make the French government alter its interpretation of the stipulations of that treaty, or to adopt a different conduct as founded upon it? France has now the command of every port from the Texel to the Adriatic, and under the
influence of her former policy, will not fail to exclude our commerce from every part of that immense line of coast, unless restrained by some specific stipulation. This is a subject well worth the attention of his majesty's ministers, whilst negotiating a peace; it is a subject that at present deeply interests the commercial part of the community.
It is natural for a wise government to take every favorable opportunity of accommodating its differences with an adjoining state. The peace concluded between Russia and France appears to have afforded this opportunity in the present instance. There is reason to apprehend, however, that this, which seems to be the cause, is only the consequence, and that the pacification, on the part of Russia, has been accelerated by the circumstance of overtures having been antecedently made by our ministry to Bonaparte. If so and that a peace should not ensue between this country and France; we shall have cause to lament our precipitancy. It is impossible for us on any other grounds to account for the time and terms of the treaty, to which the emperor of Russia has become a party.
But though the first overtures may have been made by our government, it does not follow that they are, or will be prepared to accede to terms, either discreditable to themselves, or inconsistent with the honor or interests of their country. It is one thing to shew a disposition to treat, and another to adjust the conditions of the treaty. They who have clear and distinct views of the matter in dispute, are most ready to enter into discussions for accommodation; because they have less need of preliminary consideration. If both parties entertain the same disposition, a speedy adjustment must be the consequence. We hope this may be the case; yet, from our knowledge of the principles of the French government, we are free to acknowledge that we are not sanguine in expecting that result from the negotiation.
It should never be forgotten, in the discussion of any terms of peace, that this country stands at present on higher ground than ever. She has fleets victorious and invincible; she has an immense armed population, animated by the most exalted sentiments for her internal defence; and she has a numerous and a gallant army to be applied to offensive operations. France must feel now that she can never expect to make any impression on this country by invasion; and we ought to feel that we may be formidable to France, by having our whole army disposable in the event of a favorable occasion for employing it in offensive war. Whilst in such a relative situation we ought not to receive the law from France. A fair, a just and honorable peace is all that ought to be desired by either party, and certainly the only one that can be durable. It would answer no good purpose to patch up a precarious treaty, which might be liable to be broken as soon as ratified. In such a case, we should have to encounter all the expense of war establishment, without any one of the advantages of peace, and perhaps be compelled to renew hostilities under very unfavorable circumstances.
The peculiarities of the constitution of this country, and the habits and manners of its inhabitants, render it difficult to raise & keep up a large army. When we possess a numerous and a good one, we should not lightly be induced to reduce it, and trust to future measures to reproduce one on a future emergency. Nothing less than the prospect of a solid and durable peace should tempt us to forego the advantage we possess in this respect. We cannot easily forget the multiplicity and succession of measures that were found necessary, though some of them proved insufficient for the purpose. It would be absurd, therefore, to make any peace, but one likely to be lasting, at a time when we are in a condition to carry on the war with vigor, when we have succeeded in forming so powerful a military establishment. Bonaparte may boast of his moderation in relinquishing his conquests in Germany, and make a merit of that in his negotiations with us; he may demand, in the shape of equivalents, the recognition of his late arrangements, and the cession of our conquests; he may offer us Malta and Hanover and the spirit of the treaty of Amiens; but are we so lowered as to subscribe to all this? Are we prepared to lend our sanction to his projected Germanic constitution, at a moment when even Austria and Prussia are protesting against his unprincipled encroachments on the independence of the Germanic body? Yet all this we must do, if we make peace with him in this instance, and still more by becoming the voluntary instruments of our own dishonor and undoing, by an acquiescence in pretensions inconsistent
with our just rights, and the independence of Europe.
What have we to fear from the continuance of the war? Was the nation ever so unanimous on any great occasion, as in support of it? Though bending under the weight of taxes for the prosecution of this most popular war, not a single individual has been heard to murmur at his burthen. Is this a time then for patching up a peace?—Would it not be more consistent with the dignity of the nation, and the spirited feelings of its inhabitants, to undertake some enterprize that would reflect honor and renown upon our character and arms, and put us in possession of an equivalent for the territories of our allies, wrested from them in consequence of their confederacy with us?—The French emperor has often ostentatiously boasted of conquering peace on the old continent; we may easily acquire peace and extensive equivalents in the new world. Our whole army is disposeable, for we still adopt the sentiments of the secretary of state, and ought to be employed in some service worthy of its exertions—The sea is open to us whilst our enemies are shut up by our fleets in their own ports, and if ever they should attempt to carry their long meditated project of invasion into execution, the simple discomfiture of that would do more for the re-establishment of the independence of Europe, than the late disasterous campaign did for its destruction. We have every thing therefore to hope from the war, and every thing to fear from a peace, on terms such as we might now obtain. Whilst we continue the contest Europe will still have a rallying point, whenever the nations of the continent, still unsubdued, may be disposed to resist the ambitious projects of the French government.—Peace, on the contrary would allow Bonaparte to consolidate his new arrangements, which never can be secure or stable whilst there is yet a possibility of emancipation. From all these considerations we are not very sanguine in our expectations from the negotiation, which has now assumed a more regular form than that in which it has hitherto been conducted. In a future number we proposed to return to this subject, and shew that if our military means be such as to warrant just expectations of success in the active prosecution of the war, our financial resources afford similar grounds of satisfaction and confidence.
BY THIS DAY'S MAIL.
BALTIMORE, Oct. 14.
IMPORTANT.
We have seen a letter from a respectable house in New York, to another in this city dated on Saturday half past 12 o'clock, mentioning that Lord Lauderdale had returned to London without effecting the object of his mission. The writer says I have had no time to add more. From the appearance of the haste in which the letter was written, together with the respectable channel through which it comes, little doubt can be entertained of the truth.

Translated from papers received at the Cof-fee house by the brig Henry, Allen, from Bordeaux.
PARIS, August 12.
Every difficulty in Germany is removed; Austria has acknowledged the confederation of the Rhine.
Prussia has acknowledged the same.
The king of Prussia has named Mr. Humboldt minister plenipotentiary at Naples, and has also appointed ambassadors to the king of Holland, and the grand duke of Cleves.
The emperor of Austria (no more the emperor of Germany) has acknowledged the new king of the two Sicilies.
Orders are given for all the armies in Germany to return to France, and the great fetes will take place the latter end of September.
The affairs on the continent are now so arranged that it now may be calculated on a lasting peace.
The ratifications of the treaty of peace with Russia, will be exchanged at St. Petersburg the 15th of this month, August, and every thing announces emperor Alexander has the sincerest desire to contribute to the peace of the whole world.
In England the people wish for peace; Mr. Fox and a great part of the cabinet, in which they count Mr. Erskine, lord Petty, lord Howich, lord Moira, and Mr. Sheridan. The negotiations have been on foot since the month of March; and were arrived on the point of maturity, and even near being signed, as has been reported. But the malady of Mr. Fox, and his ab-
sence from the council, has rendered all uncertain, and has plunged all the great interests into a diplomatic debate; Mr. Fox has a complication of complaints—the last news from London inform he had undergone several operations that secures his existence; but that will oblige him for some time to take repose.
RATISBON, August 2.
The following note was yesterday read to the diet:
"The ministers and envoys undergaged, delegated to the general diet of the empire, have received orders from their high employers to communicate to your excellencies the following declaration:
"The events of the three last wars which have disturbed the peace of Germany almost without interruption, and the political changes which have thence resulted, have strongly proved this sad truth, that the bond which formerly united the different states of the Germanic corps, could not secure this end, or rather that it is already really dissolved. This truth has long been felt by every German; and however painful the experience of several years has been it has not only shewed the weakness of the constitution, respectable in its origin, but become defective from the want of stability, attached to all human institutions. It is to this only that the schism in the empire, of 1795, can be attributed, and which in its consequences caused a separation of interests between the northern and southern states. From that time, all ideas of country and common interest have disappeared; the expressions, war of the empire, peace of the empire, have become indeed quite meaningless; we seek in vain Germany amidst the Germanic body. The princes in the vicinity of France denied all protection, and exposed to all the evils of a war of which they could not by their own power foresee the end, in the means furnished by the constitution, were forced to withdraw themselves from the confederation by a separate peace.
"The treaty of Luneville and the recess of the empire in 1803, were apparently sufficient to renew the strength of the Germanic constitution, seeing that the feeble parts of the system were banished by it, and its fundamental principles confirmed. But the events which have occurred within the last ten months, under the eyes of all the empire, have destroyed every hope which they had, and irresistibly provided anew, that the constitution which had until now existed, could no longer stand. Determined by these important considerations, the sovereigns and princes of the south and west of Germany have judged it proper to conclude a new confederation, which is adapted to their actual situation. In renouncing, by their present declaration, their union with the Germanic body, they only follow the system established by anterior events, and also by the declaration of the most powerful states of the empire. They would willingly have preserved the shadow of the constitution which has ceased to exist, but they thought it more conformable to their dignity, and to the purity of their views to make a frank and open declaration of their resolution, and of the motives which actuate them. They would have flattered themselves in vain to have attained their desired end, if they were not assured of the most powerful protection, which the same monarch, whose views has always agreed with the true interests of Germany, has engaged to them.
So powerful a guarantee is soothing in a double view. It gives the assurance that his majesty the emperor of the French for his own glory, as well as for the interests of his empire, will have at heart the maintenance of the new order of things established in Germany and confirmation of its internal & external tranquility. That which evidently proves that this precious tranquility is the principle end of the confederation of the Rhine, is, that the confederated states of the sovereigns in whose name the present declaration is made, acceded to it according to their own proposition to be admitted into it.
In acquitting ourselves of the orders which we have received, we have the honor to be with esteem and devotion, of your excellencies &c.

On the 25th the tender detained the schooner Mars, Snow, which sailed from Curacoa the 24th, and dismissed her at the same time with the Enterprize in the neighborhood of Bonair. Two hours after being dismissed the Mars was upset by a sudden squall off the land, and filled immediately, so that they could save nothing but the boat and foretopsail, scuttled the quarter and got out 4 bags of coffee, marked IV. The Enterprize was within a hundred yards of her, but felt none of the gale; she immediately took off her people, while they were in possession of the tender. She also detained the schooner Argus, from New York for Curacoa, 43 days out with valuable cargo, and not dismiss her at the time they were.

Captain B. dined with the gen. who informed him the reason of his falling out with Louis, (former captain of the Leander) was when the Spanish brigs attacked the Leander; she best them off with ease, they then bore down upon the two schooners which had fallen off to the leeward, and on shore, the General requested Louis to pursue, but he would not, by which means the schooners were captured; he also informed captain B. that he was not beat off Coro; he left it for Aruba, until the troops (5000 in number,) should arrive, expected from Barbadoes and Jamaica attended by a 64 gun ship.—The general had no doubt of succeeding, and had with him several Spaniards from the Main. Captain B. says that he conversed with several of the Spaniards and their opinion was that they must succeed.—Miranda had had frequent communications with the priests and dignified clergy.

Extract of a letter dated Wilmington, (Del.) December 9, 1806. "Our election for representatives to Congress and State Legislators was held on the 7th instant, and I have the pleasure to inform you, that Mr. James M. Bloom is re-elected without opposition, and that our legislature is decidedly federal."
A Greenock paper of August 1st, after enumerating the number of banks in the United States, Bills in circulation, &c. adds, "It is a strange fact, that when America was not nearly so far advanced as it is now, almost all the merchants traded on their own capitals—they purchased goods, paid for them, sold them, and waited for the returns; but now it is quite different. They purchase on credit, and draw bills on those to whom they sell, and are continually obliged to obtain discounts;—or, in other words, to borrow money, till the regular time of payment comes round; they may, therefore, be said to be trading with the capital of money lenders, who afford them discount."
The following beautiful portrait, from a moral limner, is painted from the life, and in colors which glow with brightness, and will last for ages. "The temper of a Christian is not a temper of sordid sensuality, or lazy apathy, or dog-matizing pride, or disappointed ambition.—More truly independent of worldly estimation, than philosophy, with all her boasts, it forms a perfect contrast to Epicurean selfishness, to stoical pride, and to Cynical brutality. It is a temper compounded of firmness and complacency, and peace and love; and manifesting itself in acts of kindness and of courtesy; a kindness, not pretended, but genuine; a courtesy not false and superficial, but cordial and sincere. In the hour of popularity, it is not intoxicated or insolent, in the hour of unpopularity, it is not desponding or morose; unshaken in constancy, unwearied in benevolence, firm without roughness, and assiduous without servility."
Another Revolutionary Emperor, and Federal Prince.
In the beginning of July the Prefect of the Police at Paris discovered and captured a gang of coiners, forgers, robbers and assassins to the number of 45. On the 12th they were carried before the criminal tribunal of the department of the Seine, which was crowded with people curious to see these culprits, who had long been the terror of the country.—
GENERAL MIRANDA.
In order that an idea may be formed of the opposition which general Miranda is likely to meet, in his attack on the Spanish provinces of South America, the following statement of the forces there, extracted from a work recently published in France, by M. D. Poas, a French commercial agent, who travelled through those provinces in the years 1801-2-3 and 4, and entered on the most comprehensive and accurate investigation of all that related to them, by order of the French government, may prove acceptable to the readers: The force in the Caraccas consists of one company of grenadiers 71 men Eleven companies of fusileers each 77 Total 918  Artillery.

MR. JEFFERSON vs. DUANE.
The President of the United States, on the 4th March, 1801, said, "Let us unite with one heart and one mind; let us restore HARMONY and AFFECTION to social intercourse." "Every difference of opinion is not a difference of principle. We have called by different names brethren of the same principle. We are ALL Republicans—We are ALL Federalists." In 1806, colonel Duane, who professes to be a disciple of, and believer in, Mr. Jefferson, says, "Do we not daily see men, who in '99, were at daggers' drawing, and who bestowed on each other the bitterest reproaches, uniting in harmony on political principles (i.e. complying with Mr. Jefferson's request). Can we see these things without an abhorrence for such unprincipled politicians?" How beautiful is consistency. (Boston Centinel.)
The Society of Arts in London adjudged in June last a premium of fifteen guineas to a Mrs. Morrice, for a method of cleansing silk, woollen, and cotton goods, without damage to the texture or color, which is thus performed:
Grate raw potatoes to a fine pulp in clean water, and pass the liquid matter through a coarse sieve into another vessel of water; let the mixture stand till the fine white particles of the potatoes are precipitated, then pour the mucilaginous liquor from the fecula, and preserve the liquor for use. The article to be cleaned should then be laid upon a linen cloth upon a table; and having provided a clean sponge, dip the sponge in the potatoe liquor, and apply it to the article to be cleaned till the dirt is perfectly separated, then wash it in clean water several times. Two middle-sized potatoes will be sufficient for a pint of water.
The white fecula will answer the purpose of tapioca, and make an useful nourishing food with soup and milk, to serve to make starch and hair powder. The coarse pulp, which does not pass the seive, is of great use in cleaning worsted curtains, tapestry, carpets, or other coarse goods.
The mucilaginous liquor will clean all sorts of silk, cotton or woollen goods, without hurting or spoiling the color; it is also useful in cleaning old paintings, or furniture that is soiled. Dirty painted wainscots may be cleansed by wetting a sponge in the liquor, then dipping it in a little fine clean sand, and afterwards rubbing the wainscot with it.
From the Connecticut Gazette. The following original effusions on a Segar, by a youth of 16, with a counsellor part on Snuff, by a youth of the same age—both members of Bacon Academy, Colchester—are not unworthy to be numbered with the elder smoothly flowing streams of Helicon.
THE SEGAR. YE Muses! hear, Your vot'ry's pray'r, Descend and aid my humble strain; Leave now the fount, The tot'ring mount, The shady grove and grassy plain:
Where flow'rs of morn, The fields adorn, And shed their sweet perfumes in air: Where purling streams Emit the gleams Of morning, rising from afar,
O, leave the shade, The verdant glade, To aid your vot'ry's strain appear! Let magic fire, The song inspire, And sweetly charm the list'ning ear.
I choose a theme, Which well may claim The muses' kind and list'ning care; Let others raise The hero's praise, Thy charms, I sing, O, sweet SEGAR!
The flowing bowl Inspires the soul To lust, to rage, and horrid war! But friendly peace, Thy fumes increase, And social converse, sweet SEGAR!
In silent shade, When earth is laid, And lovely evening mounts her cars: While zephyrs tread, The lonely mead, O, how I love the sweet SEGAR!
While warriors rage, And from his cage, Let out the bloody fiend of war: And pant for fame, And idle name, I, peaceful, ask a sweet SEGAR!
When bleak winds howl, And tempests growl, And snow and hail congeal the air: Beside the fire, Then I admire, A social friend, a sweet SEGAR!
When fumes arise Before my eyes, All cares and pain, they waft afar; Then is the time, For joy and rhyme, And social bliss, my sweet SEGAR!
If cares oppress, If love distress, And fortune's frowns my pleasures mar, If life decay, Joys fleet away, I ask a friend, a sweet SEGAR!
SNUFF. O, Muse! whom ***** has enjoy'd, Thy generous aid has been employ'd, On his Segars enough: Now leave thy favor'd poet's bower, And grant me one poetic hour, To sing the praise of SNUFF!
If e'er, perchance, the simpering cit, Has wasted all his store of wit, What then shall help him out? His hand quick to his pocket goes, He holds the rappee to his nose, And hands the box about.
Ask but the dame, whose sombre nose, Sheds crumbling essence as she goes, What makes her lips so rough? She'll tell, at once, the grateful truth, That she has sneez'd away her youth, In all the joys of SNUFF.
The powder'd bean is quite in fear His brilliant ring will not appear, And be admir'd enough; He soon can bring it into sight, If he will fix his fingers right, And take a pinch of SNUFF.
Some may segars and pipes befriend, But soon their short liv'd pleasures end, And vanish in a puff. All other trades must ere long fail, But ages yet unborn shall hail The man who first made SNUFF.
I have just received A few Boxes first quality HAVANA SEGARS. PETER WISE, jun. October 8. sta2w
