Ten Dollars Reward.
ON Tuesday morning the 21st inst. eloped from the plantation of the subscriber, JAMES, a likely young negro fellow; about five feet six or eight inches high; of dark complexion; frowning countenance; and has on his left temple a scar from a burn about the size and shape of a spot in the suit of spades. He has very little clothing with him but what he has on, which is a dark colored surtout, with some inferior under clothing, much worn. James was purchased out of Bullet's estate, where he had several connexions, bond and free—His mother Nelly, a free woman, resides in Dumfries; his brother, a free man, at Stafford court-house, as ostler; and I am told that in Alexandria he has several free brothers, who occasionally go by water. It is most likely that if he is not lurking about Mr. Stephen French's, of this county, where he has a wife, he will try to get to Alexandria with his free brothers and pass for a free man too. I therefore strictly forewarn all persons whatsoever from harboring or taking off said fellow at their peril. I would particularly thank all constables and patrolers under whose notice this advertisement comes, to be very strict in examining all negroes who are going about without notes or passes from their masters, and whoever will apprehend JAMES & bring him home, or secure him in any jail, and forward notice so that I get him again, shall receive, if in the county or neighborhood, 2 dollars; or the above reward if taken in Alexandria, or out of the state.

From the PEOPLE'S FRIEND.
TO THE PRESIDENT.
If those who follow the trade of politicians in this country, could by any means be compelled to adhere to the tenets which they have hitherto most earnestly professed, the measures which it is likely you will be driven to adopt, would soon place you on the same side with that party whom you have made it the business of your life unjustly to pull down, or rather extinguish, and who have with no less vehemence than truth, censured your measures, and condemned your designs. While, on the other hand, those who have for years, either dangled in delusion as your train, or pushed you forward as their stalking horse, would be found your adversaries, crawling over your character and beginning it with their vermin slough, just as they have to your knowledge begrimed the character of Mr. Adams, aye, and of very Washington himself.
The same persons who now deprecate the abominable idea of resenting the insults of Spain, and in the event of a war with that power, of accepting the aid of a British navy, will soon, if I err not, be driven to the alternative of either preaching the necessity of both, and in doing so, of relinquishing their tenets on those points, or else abandoning yourself personally, while those who have been continually arguing for the expediency of war with Spain, and pointing out the obligation which the civilized world owes to Great Britain as the barrier between it and Bonaparte; and in endeavouring to do away the irrational popular prejudices of this country against that, will be placed in the dilemma of either supporting you, or renouncing their past opinions. No doubt it must be to the latter a grievous violation of their feelings, to be placed in such a state, with a person whom they cannot but look upon as the very worst and most injudicious sight to this country that it ever saw, and know to be the underhand calumniator and open persecutor of their best friends; while on the other hand it will, "like a poisonous mineral, gnaw the inwards" of the former to abandon the friend and advocate in this country of France and democracy, and to approve, or even abstain from condemning any sort of conduct, even though it were for the country's salvation, with that nation which first scotched and then smote in pieces the dragon of Jacobinism; that monster whose teeth, like those of Cedmus, have been sown here, and in such baleful luxuriance, grown up into champions and agents for France.
I say this upon the presumption that the manifold wrongs and insults received from Spain and France, will at last rouse that nation into active hostility, and that with a view to that unwelcome event, you are now taking advantage of the favorable disposition to America shown by the present cabinet of St. James's, and making such arrangements with it as will secure our coast from the hostile incursions of French and Spanish armaments.
I own, sir, that this presents an aspect of things which no good citizen can like; since, as on the one hand, one should feel great difficulty in withholding its just share of approbation from a good measure, if by chance you should hereafter stumble upon, or under the impulse of necessity adopt it. It is with no less difficulty he could reconcile it to himself to bury all resentment for a ruinous administration of seven years, in one measure adopted by compulsion; or rather resorted to in despair, to prevent the last calamitous effects of its weak & wicked measures; and for the sake of one act of sound policy, whether forced or fortuitous, to slur over and give impunity to a long series of pernicious counsels, and to vouchsafe an amnesty to their author.
All this which I have said, would be true even though your former errors had been but casual and curable wounds in the country's weal, which after-measures might be supposed capable of healing. But it carries with it tenfold force when accompanied with the reflection, that if your existence were to be protracted beyond the ordinary limits of a man's life, and you were to dedicate the residue of it wholly to the reparation of the injuries you have done, and to atonement for the abuse of that confidence and that power reposed in you by the people, there would yet remain a mass of political criminality, of which no earthly purgation could wash you clean.
Like those of the French revolutionists the ills which you have occasioned are not confined to the practical economies of the country. No, Sir, they have gone to the public heart; they have poisoned the source of national principle; they have perverted the simple operations of the ge-
neral intellect from their natural process; they have unhinged all those wholesome opinions which traditional virtue, wisdom, and cumulative experience had so established, that without the intervention of the will, or almost of the thought, they were taken for granted; and they have cut off the influence of the heart with the mind, so that now the dictates of cunning and expediency receive no check from those honorable feelings, which, after all, enable man most, and make him, far more than his reason, the lord of this sublunary creation—the master of animated nature here below. Ages will elapse before that grovelling avarice—that sordes peculiosa with which your devices to obtain popularity have dammed up the public heart—that shivering timidity of war—that disrespect for the christian religion, and the laxity of morals consequent to it—that disregard of national honor, and indifference to the opinions of a surrounding world—those lewd notions about liberty in the abstract, while despotism ruckles in the heart, first planted by the revolutionists of France, and since cultivated by you and your party—ages, I say, will elapse before those will be eradicated from the soul of this country.
No sir, when you will be experiencing the rewards, whatever they may be, of this life in another; and when the great, all important and eternal truths which it is said you have here below openly denied shall have burst upon you in an intolerable blaze of conviction, then will this country be feeling the effects of your destructive measures. Then will you repentantly compare the magnitude of the mischief you have done to your country, with the miserable object which tempted you to do it.
Sir, I will conclude this letter with an extract which I have translated from a public oration unquestionably the greatest, Kirwan himself not excepted, that ever clothed piety in the robes of eloquence. The great Massillon preaching respecting the day of judgment before Louis the fourteenth, after showing the dreadful consequences attendant hereafter upon a variety of human offences, directed the following to that witty, proud, but splendid despot.
"But this is not all. If you have been a public man, and elevated to high office, reflect upon the nature and extent of your responsibility! Think what abuses of authority, what cloaked injustice, what devices sacrificed to your own private purposes or to the passions and interests of others, what respect to persons contrary to equity and good conscience, what abominable schemes undertaken by your counsel, what disorders, what public evils, of which you have been the author, or, it may be, the wicked instrument. You will then see that your ambitious views, or your bad counsels have been the fatal source of infinite miseries and calamities during your life, and of millions of other evils which will pass in uninterrupted perpetuity, descending from father to son after your death. Yes, you will be astonished to find that your evil doings have outlived your body, and that even long after your death you had been guilty before God, and in the face of Heaven, of a multitude of crimes and disorders which had passed upon earth."
CORREGIDOR.
From the Baltimore Federal Gazette.
In a well written essay on the subject of Peace or War, published in the London Morning Post of the 18th of August, we find the following observations on the importance of the trade to South America, and on the expedition of Miranda:
"Bonaparte now holding, directly or indirectly, most of the keys of the European markets, British ministers, endowed with due foresight and judgment, should have seen the imperious necessity of opening new markets to our staple manufactures in the three remaining quarters of the globe. South America, from the Mexican gulph to cape Horn, is the rich continent they should have emancipated and rendered independent; at least the Spanish and principal part, together with the contiguous French and Dutch colonies. If this be not done before the signature of any treaty with France, the glorious opportunity will perhaps be forever lost to us. I have had good opportunity to know, that Mr. Pitt, a few years before his death, saw and acknowledged the necessity of striking this blow, and was solicitous to obtain authentic information respecting the best mode of executing it."
"A free intercourse with South America would furnish a copious stream of fresh supplies for prosecuting the war! it would sustain the army and navy sent to assist its emancipation; it would open a new and lucrative market both for exports and imports to our staple manufactures, to cot-
tons, muslins, shalloons, linens, hard ware, which they now receive through Marseilles, across the Pacific ocean; it would repay us with many millions annually of the precious metals, gold and silver, with indigo, cochineal, Peruvian bark, tallow, hides, hemp, and a multitude of other articles. From the southern part of it, on the Atlantic, our West India islands might have an inexhaustible supply of provisions; it would greatly augment our naval force; it would cut off a principal stream of the resources of Bonaparte, and his vassal Spain, in carrying on the war against us."
"At the threatened rupture with Spain on the Nootka Sound business, and the commencement of the French revolution, I know that general Miranda, a native of the kingdom of Grenada in South America, gave Mr. Pitt several memorials on this subject, besides much parole information, through his secretary, Mr. S——h. I fear thousand lead forces were then in readiness to undertake this expedition according to Miranda's plan, when the breach was adjusted. Miranda then despairing of accomplishing through England his favorite schemes, set off for France, and presented it to the rulers of the French convention, by whom it was favorably listened to, and in the mean time he was nominated second in command to their principal army under general Dumourier. Having narrowly escaped the loss of his head under Robespierre, he returned to London, and for several years persisted in importuning our ministers to lop off this bank of Bonaparte and Spain. He is now, alas! Departed on a forlorn hope, to make the attempt without adequate means."
"The chart shows that the broad base of South America, bounded on the N. by the Mexican Gulph, and on the S. by the great river Amazon, is watered by two other immense rivers, the Orinoco, and the Magdalena. The island of Trinidad lies near the mouth of the former, and to the S. of this lies the province of Guyana, including Surinam and Cayenne. The expedition was to have been conducted to the river Magdalena, and to have descended into the fertile province of San Fe, and the heart of Grenada. This province, though not far remote from the equator, is very healthy, and contains every requisite for the supply of an auxiliary force. By this position, assisted by the natives, the rich gold mines of Grenada, and the treasures of Peru, carried usually across the isthmus of Panama, would be intercepted."
"Miranda, however, was not sufficiently informed of the remote power we possessed to forward the emancipation of South America, by means of land forces transported from India across the Pacific ocean. I speak from correct information on the subject, when I say that two, or at the utmost three months would have been sufficient for that purpose. The troops could be carried either a north or a south route, and refreshed on their passage at the Windward islands, or at Botany Bay."
In an extract military treatise, which has gone through six editions, of which I am the author but have thought proper for to conceal my name, I shrew out a plan of a joint expedition from Europe and from India, against the South part of South America, that is against Buenos Ayres & the opposite part of Baldivia in Chili. The breadth of South America is there contrasted to about five hundred miles; and there are two good post roads across it from sea to sea. On both sides the climate is healthy and abounds with provisions.
The jesuits of Paraguay, and their native pupils, are spread over that vast plain to the right of the river Plata; and the inhabitants of Chili are incessant in hostility against the Spanish yoke.
Bonaparte has many political and commercial reasons for endeavoring to fix our ministers into a premature war at the present moment: the restoration of twenty thousand sailors, the perilous situation of his brother Jerome, and his children in the W. Indies*; the control of his European conquests, and freedom from interruption in his future projects of rapine. He cannot fail to discover from his numerous spies, that part of our expedition now ready to sail for E. India, though not in season, is destined to Miranda. A truce only for a month will enable him and Spain to detach a strong force in Surinam and Cayenne, which could bridle both Spain and Portugal when it was convenient to throw off the yoke.
* This essay was written before the arrival of Jerome Bonaparte in France could be known.

mask, could dispossess both them of Grenada and the Brazils. The consequence of such a measure to our East and West India trade are obvious."
NEWARK (N. J.) Nov. 4.
COMMUNICATION.
Messrs. Editors, About four years since, I providentially obtained of a French physician of eminence, a recipe to cure the DROPSY. I made it known to some of my acquaintances, who were afflicted with this malady; they made trial of the remedy, and with success; indeed I have never known it to fail of effecting a cure, when the medicine has been properly made, duly taken, and persevered in. I could furnish many instances of its great and happy effects, but I will mention one example only. A lady, about seventy years old, had the dropsy to that degree that she was fearful to stand on her feet lest her skin should burst. I saw her in that situation, and it was apprehended she would die in a very short time. She, however, heard that I had a recipe to cure the dropsy, and was anxious to experience it. She took the medicine, according to the prescription; in less than a week, by evacuation, the swelling of her body entirely abated, and, in a few weeks thereafter, she was restored to perfect health.
The receipt soon became in great demand; I furnished copies of it to divers persons; and that it might be more generally known, I published it in the Centinel of Freedom . Since which, I have, to the present period, been repeatedly called on by persons, not only in this state, but also in the state of New York, for the recipe, and have this moment finished copying it for a friend at a distance. To save myself the trouble, if possible, of transmitting the recipe, as heretofore, and that still greater publicity may be given to it, I request that you will again insert it in your paper; and should the printers of news papers in the United States publish this recipe, they probably would render essential benefit to many of their fellow-citizens.

A Hint to those concerned.
A number of the Grocers of Alexandria who pay license for retailing liquors in small quantities, feel themselves considerably aggrieved by the quantity of shops permitted to exist that pay no license, and are determined to present all such as may come under their observation in future.
Death of Gen. Knox. —This great and good man, departed this life at Warren, on the 25th ult. after a confinement of 6 days. The cause of his death was, swallowing a sharp chicken bone, which perforated his bowels, and produced a mortification.
Captain Doan informs, that Miranda was at Aruba 25 days since—and that the governor general of Carraccas had offered the Spaniards a frigate to go and destroy Miranda's squadron. Capt. D. further says, that he saw the heads of two of Miranda's officers exposed at Laguira upon pikes; and that when the Spaniards passed they pointed at them with scorn and uttered the bitterest oaths against the Americans. New-York Gaz.
Mr. Burr. —Extract of a letter from Gallipoli [a few miles below Marietta] dated September 10:—"Mr. Burr's intended expedition is much talked of here. He has many proselytes; and reports are in circulation, that a large number of boats are building at Marietta to answer his purpose; say 14 or 15, though I cannot vouch for the exact number, not having been there for some weeks. Yet it is certain, that there are boats building there to descend the Ohio, and it is as certain that Mr. Burr, made himself very busy, while residing there."
Capt. Nelson, arrived yesterday from Havana, informs us, that a few days before he sailed, a Spanish packet arrived at Trinidad, Cuba, in 30 days from Old Spain. Letters by this arrival were received at Havana, stating that East and West Florida had been ceded by Spain to France, and by France to the United States. It was also stated, that the island of Cuba had been ceded by France to Spain, in consequence of Bonaparte's agreeing to reinstate the King of Naples on his throne. Knowing, as we do, that a douceur of two millions has been dispatched to France, to pave the way in a negotiation for the Floridas, we think the first part of this article very likely to be correct—but that Bonaparte should consent to take down his brother Joseph from the throne of Naples, so shortly after having elevated him to that dignity, for the purpose of reinstating its lawful sovereign, is very doubtful. Chas. Courier.
The late proposition in a Democratic paper in Virginia, for an alliance offensive and defensive with Great Britain is considerably shunned in other democratic papers, to be from the pen of Mr. John Randolph, and supposed to have originated with Mr. Monroe, the American minister in Europe!! The 'Political Observatory,' the leading democratic print of New Hampshire, noting Mr. Randolph's article, declares it to be 'unexpected,' and adds, 'but perhaps the late important changes in Europe have rendered proper now what it would have been the highest of madness and folly to adopt ten years ago.' This & many other sentiments recently expressed, shows that ALL the American democrats are not willing submissively to bend the neck and court the yoke of Bonaparte. [Boston Gaz.]
Extract of a letter from Jefferson. Trumbull county, Ohio, dated 10th October, 1806.
"Our settlement goes on well, and the settlers are much pleased with their land, we have raised as fine wheat as any in the country, and our corn, without putting a plough into the ground, yields from 30 to 40 bushels the acre."
A letter to the editor of the Norfolk Herald, from a respectable gentleman in Camden, (N. C.) dated October 27, says,
"This place never was so universally sickly before. Owing to the immense quantity of water which has fallen within a few months, the ague and fever, bilious and nervous fever have visited every family, and almost every being. Some families are entirely laid up, there not being enough in health to nurse the sick. Five died the other day within two or three miles distance. Mr. and Mrs. Wright and two children, and Miss Dickson, have been sick, and our representative has been severely attacked with a nervous complaint, and although the most violent symptoms have abated, he is scarcely ever clear of a fever, sick and weak stomach; in fact, he will have a tedious time of it, if he recovers. I wish we had one of your physi-
cians here; we are very much in want of a skillful practitioner. Unless the weather should soon become cool and fair, I do not know what will become of us all."
It would appear from the spirited publications in ALL the New York press, except the one in which an invitation to French invasion was given, on the subject of fortifying that important harbor, that the citizens had determined no longer to defer the safety of their city to our time-serving executive. It is proposed to "elect in each ward of that city a committee, to form a general committee, representing ALL THE CITIZENS, for the purpose of preparing a Memorial to Congress, praying for permanent fortifications, a naval arsenal, and a competent number of ships of force." This measure is worthy the adoption of all our large towns on the sea coast. It is, indeed, a sign that a portion at least of the national revenue, the whole of which arises from commerce, should be applied to its protection. Much too long has the public treasure, the product of the capital and enterprise of the commercial states on the Atlantic, been devoted to other purposes. (Phil. Gaz.)
We are informed that Gabriel Wood, esq. late his Britannic majesty's consul resident at this place, has been appointed comptroller general of the West Indies. [Baltimore pap.]

ATTENTION!
Richard Lee & Son,
Request those persons who value their health to observe, that
NICHOLAS HINGSTON,
At his China, Glass, Queen's-Ware and Seed Store, Fairfax street, facing Messrs. Rickett's and Newton's,
Is appointed their agent for Alexandria, AND HAS JUST RECEIVED, A LARGE SUPPLY OF Patent and Family Medicines, From their Medicine Warehouse, BALTIMORE.
THE above Richard Lee and Son is father and brother to the deceased Richard Lee, of New York, and have prepared those valuable medicines for upwards of seven years, from the original receipts now in our possession. This public notice is rendered necessary by imitations of them having been lately advertised for sale in New York, Philadelphia, and other places. Effectually to counteract such unprincipled attempts we wish the public to be informed, that the genuine medicines are only prepared by Richard Lee and Son, Baltimore, and sold by Nicholas Hingston, Alexandria—Messrs. Rapine, Conrad and Co. Capitol Hill, Washington—Nicholas Magruder, drug-gist, Georgetown, and no where else in the above places. N. B. The signature of Richard Lee and Son is on the outside wrappers, without which, none are genuine.
An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.
For the prevention and cure of Bilious and Malignant Fevers is recommended
Lee's Anti-Bilious Pills,
Prepared by Richard Lee and Son, Baltimore. The operation of these pills is perfectly mild, so as to be used with safety by persons in every situation, and of every age.
They are excellently adapted to carry off superfluous bile, and prevent its morbid secretions—to restore and amend the appetite—produce a free perspiration, and thereby prevent colds, which are often of fatal consequences—a dose never fails to remove a cold, if taken on its first appearance. They are celebrated for removing habitual costiveness—sickness at the stomach and severe head-ache—and ought to be taken by all persons on a change of climate. They have been found remarkably efficacious in preventing and curing disorders attendant on long voyages, and should be procured, and carefully preserved for use by every seaman.
Lee's genuine Essence and Extract of Mustard.
A safe and effectual remedy for acute and chronic rheumatism, gout, palsy, lumbago, numbness, white swellings, chilblains, sprains, bruises, pains in the face and neck, &c.
Lee's infallible Ague and Fever Drops, For the cure of Agues, remittent and intermitting Fevers.
Thousands can testify of their being cured by these drops, after the bark and every other medicine have proved ineffectual. Not one in a hundred has had occasion to take more than one, and numbers not half a bottle.
These drops are particularly recommended to the inhabitants of low marshy countries, where the worst sort of agues generally prevail; which, unless early attended to, and speedily removed, injure the constitution exceedingly, bring on dropsies, putrid fevers, and a variety of complaints of a most dangerous & alarming nature. Many other medicines are daily offered to the public for the cure of this disorder, which upon trial have been found either dangerous or useless. The bark is the usual remedy made use of; but being a very nauseous medicine, and seldom taken in sufficient quantity, it very often fails; children and those who have weak stomachs, are frequently lost for want of a more easy and pleasant remedy.
Lee's Grand Restorative,
Is confidently recommended as an invaluable medicine for the speedy relief and permanent cure of the various complaints which result from dissipated pleasures, juvenile indiscretions, residence in climates unfavorable to the constitution, the immoderate use of tea, frequent intoxication, or any other destructive intemperance, the unwholesome or excessive use of mercury, the diseases peculiar to females at a certain period, of libidinous living, &c.
LEE'S ELIXIR,
A sovereign remedy for colics, obstinate coughs, asthma, sore throats, and approaching consumptions. To parents who may have children afflicted with the hooping cough,
This discovery is of the first magnitude, as it affords immediate relief, checks the progress, and in a short time entirely removes the most cruel disorder, to which children are liable; the Elixir is so perfectly agreeable, and the dose so small, that no difficulty arises in taking it.
Lee's Worm-destroying Lozenges,
Which have, within six years past, cured upwards of one hundred thousand persons of both sexes, of every age, and in every situation, of various dangerous complaints arising from worms, and from obstructions or foulness in the stomach and bowels.
Lee's Sovereign Ointment for the Itch,
Which is warranted an infallible remedy at one application, and may be used with the most perfect safety by pregnant women, or an infant a week old, not containing a particle of mercury or any dangerous ingredient whatever, and is not accompanied with that tormenting smart which attends other remedies.
Dr. Larou's Indian Vegetable Specific.
For the cure of Venereal complaints.
The experience of several thousands who have been cured by this medicine (a great proportion of them, after the skill of eminent physicians had proved ineffectual) demonstrates its efficacy in expelling the virus, however deeply rooted in the constitution, and in counteracting those dreadful effects which often result from the improper use of mercury.
The mildness of the Vegetable Specific, is equal to its surprising efficacy; its operation is so gentle that it is given to patients in a state of pregnancy, with the utmost safety, and performs a cure without disturbing the system or producing any of those disagreeable effects inseparable from the common remedies.
With the medicine is given a description of symptoms which obtain in every stage of the disease, with copious directions for their treatment, so as to accomplish a perfect cure in the shortest time, and with the least inconvenience possible.
EYE WATER,
A sovereign remedy for all diseases of the eyes, whether the effect of natural weakness or accident.
TOOTH ACHE DROPS,
The only remedy yet discovered which gives immediate and lasting relief in the most severe instances.
LEE'S CORN PLAISTER,
An infallible remedy for speedily removing corns, root and branch, without giving pain.
DAMASK LIP SALVE.
Restorative Powder for the Teeth & Gums
THE ANODYNE ELIXIR,
For the cure of all kinds of head-ache.

Dr. Lee's (Windham) Biliary Pills. THE great sale and increasing demand for these valuable pills for these twelve years past, be- speak their intrinsic worth.

Dr. Rawson's Anti-Bilious Pills,  or Family Physic. The extraordinary celebrity these pills have gained, the universal demand for them and effect of which they are held by medical men of the first eminence, are sufficient testimonials of their in- trinsic worth.
