The Stages South of Alexandria.
ON the first of October next the Mail Stage will commence running as follows between Alexandria and Petersburg in Virginia:
Will leave Alexandria every day at 6 o'clock in the evening, and arrive at Dumfries by 5 in the morning—Leave Dumfries at 6 and arrive at Fredericksburg by 11 1-2 in the morning—Leave Fredericksburg at 12 (noon) and arrive at Richmond the next morning by 6—Leave Richmond at 6 1-2 and arrive at Petersburg by 11 1-2 in the morning.
Returning, will leave Petersburg every day at 12 1-2 P. M. and arrive at Alexandria in the same time. This stage will carry no more than 2 passengers on any account whatever, and not more than 14 lb. of baggage can be allowed to each passenger.
An Accommodation Stage between Alexandria and Petersburg will also commence running at the same time, every other day throughout the year, without regard to Sundays, and will travel only in the day time. On this line it is the intention of the owners to study the wishes and the convenience of passengers. Still, however, regard must be had to time—Going south from Alexandria they will breakfast at Occoquan, dine at Stafford Court-House, and lodge at Fredericksburg—The next day will breakfast at the Bowling Green, dine at the Oaks, and lodge at Richmond. And on the third day will breakfast at the Half-Way house and dine at Petersburg.
Returning, will dine at the Half-Way house and lodge at Richmond. Early in the morning, breakfast at the Oaks, dine at the Bowling Green, and lodge at Fredericksburg. Next morning, will breakfast at Stafford court house, dine at Occoquan, and lodge at Alexandria.
The owners on this line too, have to request that passengers will be a moderate as possible in the quantity of their baggage, as any thing more than a small trunk or parcel which will go within the body of the stage will be an extra charge.

RECOMMENDATIONS OF THE ABOVE WORK.
"We have had frequent occasion to speak of the diligence, good sense, and good intentions, of Mr. Murray; and we congratulate him sincerely on the success of this particular work. We announce this edition, because the alterations and additions are so considerable, that it is rendered almost a new work."
British Critic, July 1801.
"The examples which Mr. Murray has here selected, and the judicious reflections which accompany them, are such as can scarcely fail to make the best impressions, and to produce the best effects, on all who read them with attention. The present edition of this excellent publication, which has been long known and commended, is enlarged by the addition of twenty-two new characters, filling nearly one hundred pages."
Anti-Jacobin Review, Jan. 1801.
"We have received the tenth and last edition of this valuable work. The improvements made in it, will appear from the author's advertisement. We can only add to this account of the present useful volume, our hope that it will be extensively circulated among our countrymen."
The American Review & Literary Journal, for July, August & September, 1801.
"On reviewing this book, in its improved form, we find the facts unquestionable and highly interesting—the style correct and neat—and the general tendency of the work such as induces us strongly to recommend it, especially to young readers, who love entertainment mingled with instruction."
Evangelical Magazine, Oct. 1801.
"The rapid sale of this small but valuable collection, has anticipated the commendation we are desirous to bestow. In an exemplification of more than seventy remarkable characters, many striking examples are exhibited which, in the quiet hour of reflection, man contribute to arrest the careless and wandering; to animate the sincere and virtuous; and to convince or discountenance those who have been unhappily led to oppose the highest truths."

FROM THE N. Y. COMMERCIAL ADVERTISER
Connecticut Resolutions. —The following well-timed and spirited resolutions were adopted in the legislature of Connecticut, on Wednesday the 2d instant, by a majority of 94. They speak the language of independence and truth; and we recommend them to the deliberate attention of the legislatures of other states. Such sentiments, coming from so high authority, cannot fail to bring our national legislature back to a sense of their duty and to a regard for their country's welfare.
To the honorable general assembly now in session, the committee appointed to take into consideration that part of his excellency's speech which relates to the embargo, laid by the congress of the U. S. respectfully report:
That we have maturely considered the subject referred to us, and that on a view of the distresses endured by the good people of this state, though it is not within the power of the general assembly to administer relief, it is, in the opinion of the committee, their duty in this unprecedented crisis, to manifest a public avowal of their sentiments—that for this purpose we have prepared sundry resolutions, which we respectfully recommend to the legislature for their adoption.
Signed by order, ELIZUR GOODRICH.
THE interests of all classes of our citizens, being seriously and extensively affected by acts interdicting our commerce, and it being by this assembly considered expedient in such a crisis, to express the sentiments of the state:
Resolved, That although the share, which the people have, in the government of the U. States is, on ordinary occasions, the best security of the public welfare; and although the good people of this state, rely, with unabated confidence, on the wisdom and integrity of the senators and representatives, from this state, in the congress of the U. S. yet in this unprecedented crisis, silence on the part of this legislature, might be construed to imply the want of a disposition to protect, or an intention to betray the dearest rights of our constituents:
Resolved, That deeply impressed with these truths, we have deliberately examined into the tendency and operation of the acts interdicting foreign commercial intercourse, and while we yield to none in an affectionate attachment to the constitution of the United States, and claim no right of immediate interference, in the foreign relations of our country, we maintain that the right freely to navigate the ocean, was like our soil, transmitted to us, an inheritance from our forefathers, and that the enjoyment of this right is secured to us, as a free and sovereign state, by the plighted faith of the U. States.
Resolved, That while we admit the power vested in Congress, to regulate commerce, to retain or suspend it for short and definite periods, as a measure of precaution or internal police, preliminary to efficient measures of ulterior defence; we cannot refrain from expressing an opinion that to interdict it indefinitely, is a measure partial in its operation, not only imposing unequal and intolerable burthens, not only on the carrying and commercial states, but abandoning invaluable rights, reserved and guaranteed by solemn compact.
Resolved, That on this fair exposition of the great charter of our rights, we consider the acts, interdicting foreign commerce, incompatible with justice and good faith in regard to the carrying & commercial states, and deplore the existence of a system of statutes and regulations, so novel in principle, and not enforced, through the medium of courts of justice, but by executive edicts, and military and maritime force—that we view with regret this extension of the executive power, and the continuance of a policy ruinous to ourselves, and insufficient in preventing the aggressions of foreign nations.
Resolved, That while we deprecate wars, waged from motives of ambition, partiality or prejudice, for national aggrandizement, or in the uncertain expectation of results, which, if realized, have no practical value, and bring with them no compensation, for the calamities thro' which they are gained,
yet steady and persevering in the usages, habits, and principles of our forefathers; and, like them, born free, we retain the strongest love of liberty; and will never surrender it, to the artifice or arms, of any foreign power; that for the security of a blessing, inestimable, it becomes a great & magnanimous nation, to cherish and employ efficient means of defence.
Resolved, That the good people of this state are enduring restrictions upon their commerce, which, on cool and impartial consideration, appear to this assembly, to be unnecessary and grievous; that we rely nevertheless, in their further patient and faithful regard to public order, in the hope, that the Congress of the U. States will, at their approaching session, on a knowledge of their distresses, speedily decide, that a removal of them is compatible with the peace, honor and happiness of the United States.
FROM THE SAME.
THE world has long been in such a state, as to render the calculations of good men uncertain. The honest, who have little experience, are actuated alone by the most obvious motives: and pursue their objects in a straight course; without taking into their plan a preparation for those deviations and sinuosities, the wiles of the unprincipled may render necessary. About twenty years ago it used to be thought, that we were the happy people, destined to exemplify the perfection of government, from a persuasion that it would always be committed to the most able hands; and be influenced by the virtue of the nation. The country at that time, however, was not destitute of men skilled in the mysteries of experience, and therefore well apprised of the thousand dangers in the way of free institutions. Yet even these were possessed with the notion, that the American people were not to be judged of by any example exhibited in the annals of mankind; but that we had arisen, a Utopia no longer fabulous; a people, so enlightened, so virtuous, so discerning, so disinterested that all the villany of innovating philosophers, with the aid of corrupt demagogues, could not lead us astray. This impression became so common, with the better part of society, they were wafted along as lulled in a pleasing dream; unconscious of the lurking mischief, fast arising to make shipwreck of their hopes, and to awake them at once to alarm and to danger.
Perhaps it is not too much to believe, that some men of real talents, and, what is more, of real integrity, were not sensible of the alarming crisis we were approaching, even where Mr. Jefferson was known to have hired a vile scribbler to calumniate the immortal memory of Washington. At any rate it is certain, the train, laid for blowing up the solid glory of our country, was either not perceived, or thought too inconsiderable to attract much notice, until, artfully managed, it exploded with a force, which nothing then to be brought in its way could resist. Our exultation was one great cause of our disgrace; therefore, the reflection, which presents the state, to which we are reduced, becomes the more cutting. Blindly boasting the rights and privileges, secured by our constitution, the certain presages of a millennium near at hand, the honest souls scarcely conceived the necessity of efforts to defend them, until they saw a pupil of French philosophy at the head of the executive department; a foreign leader of rebellion against our laws, at the head of our treasury; and a general spirit of infatuation gone abroad, which threw every thing into the hands of the factious. Then the veterans, who fought our revolutionary battles, and the sages, who devised our excellent system of government, found that if from the administration, suffered to rise to power, they only had hope, "they were of all men the most miserable."
Undoubtedly it is right, never to despair of the republic. Great as are the evils we suffer, gloomy as are the presages respecting the future, we have less reason to despond, than Tully had, when he saw his country reeking with her best blood: and all Rome, the toy-shop of a licentious triumvirate.—If we fancy we see the bark of our hopes driven near the reef, there is the greater need of activity and skill to keep it from destruction. The times are bad; but this is only a call for exertions to make them better. The hour, spent in bewailing our degradation, may be the mean of reducing us still lower. It would be honorable to us if we only glanced at our political misfortunes and disgrace, to stimulate us to an ardent rivalry in rescuing the remains of our mangled rights from unworthy hands. The day cannot be far distant, when, with due attention to the public weal, we shall begin to see a revival of national virtue, and an animating dawn of benighted prosperity.
The ardor, with which the better part of our countrymen, hail the nomination for a federal president and vice-president, seems a stable pledge of this belief: and although the first effort may fall short of absolute success, it will open a way for a sure triumph in the second.
The mild virtues of Mr. PINKNEY, with his splendid qualities as a statesman, gives us reason to expect, that the day, which should bring him to the presidential chair, would revive the renown, which has languished under the pusillanimous and wicked. While the great powers, the extensive experience, and incorruptible patriotism of Mr. KING, would be a sufficient guarantee against futile expedients at home, or foreign influence from abroad. A discussion of the advantages we could not fail to realize under such men, of such principles, would at this time be attended with the most happy effect upon the public mind.
LYCURGUS.
A gentleman from Havana (says a Charleston paper) has politely favored us with a supplement of the Aurora of the 1st. ultimo, from which we have made the following translation:
Extract from the Diary of Badajoz, August 6.
PARIS, June 27.—In the Senatus Consultum of the 18th instant, a letter from the Emperor was read, wherein he desires the conscription of 1811.
The vice-admiral Desires said, "Gentlemen, we have advanced three conscriptions, and France is sensible of her depopulation. In several of the departments there are evident marks of revolt, and at a time when the nation is deprived by violence of the only resource which was left to her, we do not even know the object and purpose for which these measures are intended. Is it Sweden that requires our youth, that she may be compelled to yield to the pretensions of the continent? Although I know that we have lately been informed that our armies were near Stockholm, yet I do not know where these reinforcements are to go. I do not oppose the intentions of the great Napoleon, but the importance of the object should be kept in view by the Senate."
CAMBACERES said, "The conscription of 1811 cannot serve for any enterprise; it is a violence imposed upon the citizens of France and endangers the tranquility of the state. For my part I do not know of any present interest which is worthy of these great efforts—I am, therefore, opposed to grant these undiminished resources."
The Senate at length refused to comply with the emperor's demands, who, in consequence sent them the following note:
"Senators—I have always been ready to reward good citizens; M. Cambaceres has discharged his duty with glory, and for this reason I grant him his dismissal, with all his honors, and the principality of Fulda with all its appointments. Farewell."
NAPOLÉON.
Bayonne, 21st of June.
By this time Cambaceres and the Arch-Treasurer of the Empire had resigned their offices to the Senate, who appointed M. Neufchâtel to declare to them in public, "that the Senate could not deprive itself of those members who are the guide of its deliberations, at a time in which it is organizing the government. To the constitution and to the civil code your talents are necessary. The country is in need of your assistance, and you ought to sacrifice the last days of your lives to its honor. The Senate entreats you to return and take your seats, if you do not wish to see the resignation of the other officers of the government."
Cambaceres replied, "To comply with your desires, it is necessary that you should hear me. We all know that the English nation has been blamed by the French for the insults offered to the Danish nation."
The ministerial papers have been full of execration since the fleet was carried off. We have not imputed it to the king of England, but to his weak government. With these ideas we have excited all the continent against it, and roused the hatred of all nations; the same blame is laid on the Senate. The French armies, we were told, entered Spain for the purpose of proceeding against Gibraltar. The Kings of Spain being dispossessed of their throne, and Joseph Napoleon declared its inheritor, are continuances of the emperor alone. The Senate knows nothing officially. Shall the first body of the nation be at the head of a conduct equally contrary to good faith and to true policy? Was not Spain our ally? Did she not assist us with her armies in Hanover and Hamburg? when our ambassador set out, and even before, did not the young king give him the most constant marks of benevolence? And must the French Senate support such a violent outrage? Shall we permit innocence itself to be deprived of the crown?—
And will not the Senate be accused, by every other nation, as unjust, and as the persecutors of their friends and allies? Can again at the head of the Senate, if this pro-ror does not disclose the cause of this injustice, and if France, which is to be a guarantee to the other nations of Europe, is not free from these deceptions? No; Spain deserves our protection; and a power of the first rank in Europe, ought not to be treated in a manner so unworthy, so contrary to the rights of nations, to the laws of friendship and the most intimate alliance. Napoleon's generosity to this great nation consists in dethroning its young king in order to place, for the gratification of his own ambition, the members of his own family upon rich and powerful thrones."
The senate immediately deputed Fontenau and Ecrenot to the emperor, to request his presence in Paris, and to solicit an account of these events.
The senate re-assembled yesterday, when the prince of Asturias and Manuel Godoy, (prince of peace) attended in their hall. The debates were warm which terminated in a resolve to proclaim Ferdinand king of Spain and the Indies. Godoy was sentenced to death, and the old king was ordered to be shut up in the castle of Casel on the Rhine.
BALTIMORE, November 7.
On Saturday an elegant dinner was given by a number of the gentlemen of this city to the federal members of the national and state legislature, who were then in town. The change of the politics of Maryland, produced at the late election, and the revival of patriotism in the other states, required some testimony of joy from the enlightened federalists of Baltimore. The meeting of the members in our city, on their way to attend their duty, was regarded as affording this opportunity of mutual felicitation, and at the same time of paying a proper tribute of respect to the virtues and talents of the gentlemen, whom the confidence of their country has called into its service in these perilous times.
SAMUEL STERETT, esq. acted as President, and R. G. HARPER, } Esqrs. as Vice- W. H. WINDER, } Presidents. THOMAS LEE, }
The following are the Toasts, as taken from the Federal Republican:
1. The People of the United States. 2. The Constitution of the U. States. 3. The Memory of Washington—
All princely graces, With all the virtues that attend the good Were still doubled in him. Where'er the bright sun of Heaven shall shine His honor and the greatness of his name Shall be.
(Drank standing with three times three.) 4. The Heroes who fell in the war of our revolution.
"Sweet is the remembrance of their deeds, and their fame shall live in the hearts of those for whose happiness they laid down their lives."
(Standing, 9 cheers.)
5. The memory of Hamilton. "Truth nursed him. He was loved and feared."
6. General Charles Cote worth Pinckney.
"If it be aught towards the general good, Set honor in one eye and death in the other, And he will look on both indifferently."
7. The honorable John Marshall, chief justice of the United States.
"That rare patriotism which prefers the people's good to the people's favor."
8. Rufus King.
"Sage he stands; With Atlantean shoulders fit to bear The weight of mighty states."
9. The Federal party. Public good its object; public spirit its guide; and patriotic virtue its cement.
10. "The Sun of Federalism." It hath risen in the east. Soon may its light and genial heat bring forth in abundance the fruits of national honor, prosperity and happiness.
11. The Patriots of Spain. In struggling, like us, for the rights of self-government, they oppose a new barrier to the progress of universal despotism. Like us, may they prove successful.
(Standing hand in hand, 9 cheers.)
12. Democratic defence, or the Embargo go act with all its supplements.—"We have strict statutes and most biting laws" for our own citizens, but embassies for our enemies.
13. Cabinet secrets— "There are more things in Heaven and earth Horatio,
"Than are dreamt of in our Philosophy."

14. A recent correspondence— From their infancy They have conversed and spent their hours together, As if they had been Proteus, for that's his name, And received his friend.  15. Circular Letters and Opinions, in opposition to laws and judicial decisions— "It must not be: there is no power in Ve- nice, Can alter a decree established."  16. The Federal members of Congress and the Legislature of Maryland, who have endored us with their company. "Let not the world see fear and sad distrust, Lest your motions— Be shrunk as the time—be fire with fire— and put on The dauntless spirit of resolution."  17. New-England, particularly Boston, the cradle of our independence. After drinking NEW ENGLAND, the follow- ing toast was given by the Hon. Edward S. Loe Livermore of Massachusetts. The State of Maryland—Agriculture and Commerce the pillars of prosperity— May no visionary politician be able to per- suade her that one can flourish by the de- pression of the other. The whole company rose at one mo- ment, and drank the toast with three cheers. The following volunteers were then giv- en. Volunteer by the President. Timothy Pickering. The American A- mides. By Mr. Harper. The memory of Ames. "Persuasion dwelt on his lip—His breast was the temple of wisdom and of virtue." By Mr. Winder. James Ross—Energy directed by wis- dom, and supported by constancy. By John Hanson Thomas Esq. The venerable sage and patriot Thomas Johnson—our Maryland Nestor—a uni- form follower of the principles of Washing- ton—who resisted the Stamp act in 1774, and resists the Tarrapin system in 1808.
BY THE LAST MAIL.  BOSTON, Nov. 4. Arrived brig Betsey, Hall, 10 days from Alexandria, and schooner Dove, Hall, 8 days from Philadelphia. Captain Hall of the Dove, spoke off Cape Cod, three vessels from Marblehead in search of a wreck which had been seen in the bay. We learn, that on Friday night last, at 11 o'clock, the schooner Active, captain Given, from Portland for Boston, was upset 9 miles from the highland of Cape Cod. The sch- ner discovered from the Cape, on the fol- lowing morning; and as soon as a boat could be obtained, six men were dispatched in it, for the schooner; having reached her, they found the captain and one passenger lashed to the outside of the crotch. The boat's crew having informed them that they would take as many as the boat would carry, and return for the remainder, took on board the captain and three other per- sons. During the whole of this period, the wind blew a strong gale from the S. W. The boat did not reach the shore until night, which prevented them from putting off a- gain to the schooner; and what was the fate of those who remained on board we have not learnt; but as Mr. Coie's pilot boat (in the United States service) which was at C. Harbor on Sunday morning had heard of the situation of the schooner and had sailed in quest of her hopes are entertained that the other unfortunate sufferers may be saved from the wreck. The Salem Register of yesterday, contains the following additional particulars respect- ing the above schooner from captain Gib- bons: Friday, at 11 P. M. sprung a leak and immediately filled: at 12 P. M. spoke the schooner Betsey, from Marblehead, but who contrary to the principles of humanity gave us no assistance! On Saturday, at 3 P. M.

Alexandria Daily Gazette.  THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 10.  FROM OUR CORRESPONDENT AT WASHING- TON.  WEDNESDAY, November 9.  The remainder of yesterday's session, (af- ter the close of my letter) the house was oc- cupied in reading the documents which ac- companied the public message of the presi- dent. They adjourned before the reading was finished. The reading was resumed this morning and is not yet completed. As soon as finished, I presume the doors will be closed. The doors were closed at one o'clock, and continued so until the house adjourn- ed. General Tarreau, minister of the empe- ror of France has arrived in Washington. The following are the Electors of Presi- dent and Vice President, chosen by the state of Connecticut. We are authorised to state that they will vote exclusively for federal candidates. Jonathan Trumbull, John Trumbull, David Daggett, Roger Griswold, Samuel H. Johnson, Jesse Root, John C. Smith, Stephen T. Hesser, Frederic Wolcott. [Nat. Intel.]  The Legislature of New-Jersey have e- lected John Lambert a Senator of the U. S. for six years ensuing, in the place of John Candit whose term of service expires on the 3d of March next.  Extract of a letter from Washington, to the editor of the Whig.  NOVEMBER 7, 1808.  "It is of some importance that you should know that the president has commanded all the governors of the different states to fur- nish their respective quotas of the 100,000 men ordered by the act of the last session of congress. It is not certain how long the directions were issued, but no longer since than last Friday. Dispatches were receiv- ed here on Saturday night—their contents have not transpired. It is the general op- inion that much of the early business of the session will be transacted with closed doors. In short, nothing engages the attention of the citizens here, more than the order which gen. Mason, as it is understood, has re- ceived to hold his men in readiness to march at the shortest notice."  THE AMERICAN CONSCRIPTION, For the year 1809.  IT seems that orders from Washington City arrived here on Friday last, for the immediate raising and equipping upwards of Ten thousand Militia to be held in readi- ness to march at a moment's warning!! Con- jecture is all alive as to the use intended by the emperor Thomas for this hasty call. Citizens of Virginia are you ready to turn out! We know that your answer is, yes—in defence of our country, we are al- ways ready—but we know that you, like us, will accompany this declaration with this question: for what are we to equip!! is it to fight the French, the English, or who!!—would to God that we could an- swer you. Be it then known to you that the order has come from the Secretary at War to our executive here, unaccompanied with a single reason!!! no object is assign- ed! it is the peremptory order from the War Office!  Citizens of Virginia, we wish not to a- larm you unnecessarily upon any occasion whatever, but we venture to say, (and as long as we are at liberty we will speak and write) that even Bonaparte himself has never called out his Militia without assigning a cause accompanying the call!! Good God! are we come to this despotic crisis, when we are ordered to prepare for battle, and our officers not even deign to inform us who our enemy is! you, our fellow citizens, will pause and ponder! and then with us you will shed a tear over our fallen liberties!! Spirit of Washington, whither hast thou fled! we beseech thee to intercede for us once more: our national offences against thy ad- vice have been many: we have estranged ourselves from thy laws, and there is no help in us: we beseech thee to intercede with thy God that he will have mercy upon us—for we are poor indeed and miserably perverse! change our national hearts, and place us once more in the right way. (Virg. Gaz.)
Our Thursday the brig Fox, capt. Thorn- dike, arrived at Salem from Palermo, last from Algeciras. Captain T. brought Gib- raltar papers to the 14th of September, but they contain no accounts of Spanish affairs which we have not already had. When he was at Palermo, the news which excited the greatest interest was Murat's being king of Naples. An English ambassador had sailed from thence for Constantinople; and two bomb ships for Barcelona, to bombard the fortress that commands that place. At Algeciras the people were highly animated in the patriots' cause, and the name of a Frenchman was detestable to them. He heard of no recent important event, but they represented that Joseph Bonaparte was sur- rounded by the Spanish armies, and would be obliged to surrender; by which event they expected to recover their king. The French still maintained the strong fortress of Montjoi, which commands the city of Barcelona; but the Spaniards expected to reduce them. Indeed they did not admit a doubt of success in the complete expulsion of the French from the kingdom. They were anxious to know of the concurrence of the colonies in the patriot cause, that the mines of Mexico might contribute to its support. [Salem Gaz.]  Extract of a letter from Antigua, received at N. York, via New London, dated Sep- tember 28th.  "I am requested to mention, that it may be inserted in the public papers, the deten- tion of the ship Minerva, William Mar- shal, jun. master, of Boston. She was pro- ceeding from Trinity with her outward bound cargo. Mate and all hands taken out, and ship unloaded in this port; fate uncertain."  "The day before yesterday the brig Mi- das was brought in by Buntin's privateer. She was from Guadalupe for New York with a cargo of sugar and coffee. My op- inion is that she will be condemned, or the cargo, as French property."  "The same day a most elegant schooner, about 150 tons burthen, having no papers, and said to be from New York for Marie- galante, was sent in, and will most likely be condemned, from a suspicion of her go- ing to a French port. She had no cargo. We may expect many more detentions in a few days. Our markets continue as under: flour 20 dollars, rice 11, corn 3 1-2, corn- meal 65 in puncheons, tobacco 50 to 60, pork 30, beef 25, bread 12, soap 50 cents per lb. and candles 37 1-2."  REMOVAL.
