To be sold, at public auction, at Northum- berland court house, in the county of Nor- thumberland, and state of Virginia, on TUESDAY, the fifth day of September next, at eleven o'clock, in the forenoon, Five contiguous Plantations, Amounting together to about 2700 Acres, SITUATE on the river Potomac, and within about three miles of the court- house. These estates formerly belonged to Presley Thornton, Esq. and are the same on which he lived. They have never been seen by either of the subscribers; but it is under- stood, that about 1700 acres of them are as valuable low grounds as any on the river, and a considerable part thereof heavily timbered. The uplands consist of about 1000 acres, and the whole is well calculated for the production of corn, wheat, tobacco, timothy, and small grain of all kinds, in great abundance. The waters are said to abound with excellent fish, oysters, and wild fowl. The water car- riage is easy and convenient to Norfolk, Ba- ltimore, Alexandria, and the city of Wash- ington; and as these estates possess several good mill seats, with an abundance of water, and a plentiful supply of timber, they must be very valuable. The premises will be shown to persons in- clining to purchase, by Col. James Moore, who lives on them, or by Samuel Blackwell, Esq. who lives near to them; and the terms of payment may be known a sufficient time before the sale, by applying to either of them, or to the subscriber in the city of Philadel- phia.

BATTLE OF BLENHEIM.
[The following simple, though elegant poetical effusion, has frequently been published. It is but a faithful picture of the horrors of war; at the same time it serves to shew how little those unhappy beings (who are torn from their families and connexions) are acquainted with the causes which produce those sanguinary conflicts, in which they are compelled to become the wretched actors.]
IT was a summer evening, Old Kaspar's work was done, And he before the cottage door Was sitting in the sun: And by him sported on the green, His little grandchild Wilhelmine.
She saw her brother Peterkin Roll something large and round, That he beside the rivulet In playing there had found: He came to ask what he had found, That was so large, so smooth & round.
Old Kaspar took it from the boy, Who stood expectant by: And then the old man shook his head, And with a natural sigh, 'Tis some poor fellow's skull said he, That fell in the great victory.
Find them in the garden, for There's many here about, And often when I go to plough The ploughshare turns them out: For many thousand men, said he, Were slain in the great victory.
Now tell us what 't was all about, Young Peterkin he cries, And little Wilhelmine looks up, With wonder waiting eyes; Now tell us all about the war, And what they killed each other for.
It was the English, Kaspar cried, That put the French to rout; But what they killed each other for, I could not well make out. But every body said, quoth he, That 't was a famous victory.
My father lived at Blenheim then, Yon little stream hard by; They burnt his dwelling to the ground, And he was forced to fly— So with his wife and child he fled, Nor had he where to rest his head.
With fire and sword the country round Was wasted far and wide; And many a childing mother then, And new-born infant died. But things like this you know must be At every famous victory.
They say it was a shocking sight After the field was won, For many thousand bodies here Lay rotting in the sun. But things like that you know must be At every famous victory.
Great praise the duke of Marlboro' won, And our good friend Eugene— Why 'twas a very wicked thing, Said little Wilhelmine. Nay—nay, my little girl, quoth he, It was a famous victory.
And every body praised the duke, Who such a fight did win: But what good came of it at last Quoth little Peterkin: Why that I cannot tell quoth he, But 'twas a famous victory.

GENERAL ORDERS.
Head-Quarters at Schoenbrunn, May 13. SOLDIERS!
A month after the enemy passed the Inn, on the same day, at the same hour, we have entered Vienna.
His militia (Landwehr,) his levies-en masse his ramparts, raised by the impotent rage of the princes of the house of Lorraine, have not been able to withstand your presence. The princes of that house have abandoned their capital, not as warriors of honor, but as selfish men pursued by their self reproaches. While they were flying from Vienna, their farewell to its inhabitants has been flames and murder. Like Medea, with their own hands they have massacred their own children.
SOLDIERS! The people of Vienna according to the expression of the deputation of its suburbs,
abandoned deserted, widowed, shall be objects of your regard. I take its good inhabitants under my especial protection; turbulent and wicked men I will employ justice upon them. SOLDIERS!
Be good towards the poor peasants, this good people who have so many reasons to our esteem. Let us not be proud of success: let us rather see in it a proof that divine justice which punishes the grave and the perfidied.

General Duhesme writes from Bar on the 27th of April, that every thing is tranquil around him: that the arrival of rear admiral Cosmao, convoying with sail of the line, 25 vessels, bearing 5000 quintals of corn, flour, roots, and ammunition, has spread joy among the city and garrison; that general Reding is dead of wounds, and that with him has perished one of the bitterest enemies of the French. The promptitude of the expedition with rear admiral Cosmao was charged down to admiral Gantheaume who commanded it.
APPENDIX.
No. 3.
TO HIS HIGHNESS THE ARCHDUKE RUDOLPH MILIAN.
Head-Quarters at Schoenbrunn, May 13. Monsieur, the marshal duke of Montebello sent this morning to your highness an officer parlementaire, accompanied by a trumpeter. This officer is not returned yet: your highness is informed me what is the intention to send him back. This unusual a procedure, obliges me to make use of the inhabitants of the town, in order to have the honor of communicating with your highness.
His majesty the emperor and king, sovereign, having been brought to Vienna by the events of war, desires to spare the great and interesting city the calamities with which it is threatened, and has charged me to represent to your highness, should you be resolved to defend the place, you will cause the destruction of one of the finest cities in Europe: you will bring the calamities of war upon an immense population, composed, in part, of old men, women and children. Will not so many brave soldiers, who are sacrificing their lives in the service of his majesty the emperor of Austria, be struck in what is most dear to them, when they behold, while defending their persons to their sovereign, their wives and children exposed to the horrors of war.
The emperor, my sovereign has displayed in all the countries into which the war has carried him, his solicitude to relieve the unarmed population from these disasters. Your highness must be persuaded that his majesty is sensibly affected at beholding the great city on the point of destruction, which he deems it a glory to have already saved.
Nevertheless, contrary to the custom established in fortresses, your highness has caused cannon to be discharged on the side towards the town; and this cannon might kill not an enemy of your sovereign, but the wife or children of one of his most zealous servants. I have the honor to observe to your highness, that during this day the emperor has refused to permit any of the troops to enter the city; confining himself solely to the occupation of the gates, and the distribution of patrols for the maintenance of good order. But if your highness persists in defending the fortress his majesty will be compelled to commence the works of attack and the ruin of this immense capital will be complete, within 36 hours, by the fire of our batteries and the bombs of our howitzers. As the suburbs will be destroyed by the effects of yours, his majesty does not doubt that these considerations will influence your highness to renounce a determination which will retard but for a few moments the surrender of the place.
Finally, if your highness do not determine to adopt a conduct which will save so interesting a town, its population rendered so wretched through your highness's fault, plunged into such frightful disorders, would become from faithful subjects the enemies of your house.
I beg your highness to inform me of your resolution. Believe in the sincerity of the sentiments I have expressed, and of those of my high consideration.
(Signed)

THE YELLOW FEVER
Is said to be at Brooklyn, opposite the city of New York.
The Baltimore Whig mentions it to be at Philadelphia, on the wharves between Chesnut and Walnut streets.
AN INTERESTING CAUTION.
The non-intercourse law is now in operation against England, without any new act of the government of the U. S. or in other words, the British orders in council never having been revoked, the non-intercourse law never ceased to be in force.
[Balt. N. Amer.]
The city of St. Domingo, after a long siege, during which the inhabitants were reduced to the greatest distress for provisions has surrendered to the English. By the articles of capitulation the town was to be delivered up by the French, with all its ammunition, guns, etc. and the garrison to be sent to France.
Highly interesting Commercial Information
The following is an extract of a letter from Hamburg, dated May 19, 1809, from a house of the highest respectability to their friends in this city. The information it communicates is of a most pleasing nature. [Fnil. True Amer.]
After a long interruption of our intercourse with your country, the American flag has again been displayed in this neighborhood. Three vessels from Baltimore have arrived at Tonningen and Hussum; and although it is to be expected that more will follow, their cargoes, will be sold to great advantage. It is so long since we have been cut off from our regular supplies, that all the old stocks are almost entirely consumed; and will require very great imports to replace them even in a small degree. Doubts have existed as to the admission of American ships in Danish ports: It is, however, with pleasure we can state to you, that no difficulty has been made to their discharging; and should even the hostility of the French emperor to American commerce prevent the goods coming from your country from passing the lines of the French Douanes (custom houses) sales can be effected at Altona and elsewhere out of these lines, so that the property can never come within the reach of these decrees.
The accounts you no doubt have received of the many restrictions which have been imposed on the trade of the continent, are well calculated to deter houses with you, from making any shipments to this neighborhood, as you cannot be acquainted with the exact extent of the danger, or the manner in which it can be avoided. Since the rescinding of the British orders of the 11th of November your vessels can trade to this river and to Danish ports with perfect security; but as a French custom house is established here we recommend to you not to expose any property to their grasp, by a direct shipment to this place until the French emperor has pronounced his intentions with regard to that trade. The Danish ports of Tonningen and Hussum offer more security, whence with a trifling additional expense, goods will find the way into the continental markets, without any risk whatever. The only question therefore which remains is with regard to the admission of your ships into the Danish ports: this question is decided in the affirmative, and we suppose a possibility of this determination on being changed by the interference of the French, it will operate no further than directing such ships away from their ports; and if nothing better offers, they will find a sale at Heligoland, a small island of our river, from whence a good deal of contraband is carrying on with the coast.
All ports of the Weser have been declared in a state of blockade. Their whole exports must be drawn from such supplies as may reach us from your country, and we have every reason to expect a brisk demand at high prices for the cargoes that may reach us; and although an over abundant import may depress our present prices, we are of opinion they will continue sufficiently ample to repay those who may advance this way, and we feel ourselves justified in encouraging you to make some transactions without loss of time, as the first arrivals will receive proportionably a better price.

BY THE LAST MAIL.
IMPORTANT!
NEW-YORK, July 26.
A view of the whole ground.—Incredulity can go no farther; blind and intemperate railing must cease. Those always disposed to place in its worst light every thing that comes from G. Britain, and some from whom better things might have been expected, but whose private discontents seduced them for the moment to join in a charge against British perfidy; and they have joined in disbelieving that the abridgement of the instructions from the Halifax paper was correct. There is now an end to the charge and to the disbelief. By the British packet which arrived last evening, we are put in possession of a copy of those instructions taken from a London newspaper. They follow.
Copy of a dispatch from Mr. Secretary Canning to the hon. D. M. Erskine; dated Foreign Office, 23d Jan. 1809.
If there really exists in those individuals who are to have a leading share in the new administration, of the United States, that disposition to come to a complete and cordial understanding with Great Britain, of which you have received from them such positive assurances; in meeting that disposition it would be useless and unprofitable to recur to a recapitulation of the causes from which the differences between the two governments have arisen, or of the arguments already so often repeated in support of that system of retaliation to which his majesty has unwillingly had recourse.
That system his majesty must unquestionably continue to maintain, unless the object of it can be otherwise accomplished.
But after the profession on the part of so many of the leading ministers of the government of the United States, of a sincere desire to contribute to that object in a manner which should render the continuance of the system adopted by the British government unnecessary, it is thought right that a fair opportunity should be afforded to the government to explain its meaning and give proof of its sincerity.
The extension of the interdiction of the American harbors to the ships of war of France as well as of Great Britain, is, as stated in my former dispatch, an acceptable symptom of a system of impartiality towards both belligerents; the first that has been publicly manifested by the American government.
The extension of the non-importation act to other belligerents is equally proper in this view. These measures remove these preliminary objections which must otherwise have precluded any useful or amicable discussion.
In this state of things, it is possible for Great Britain to entertain propositions which while such manifest artifice was shewn to her enemies, were not consistent either with her dignity or her interest.
From the report of your conversations with Mr. Madison, Mr. Gallatin, and Mr. Smith, it appears:—
1st. That the American government is prepared in the event of his majesty's consenting to withdraw the orders in council of January and November 1807, to withdraw contemporaneously on its part the interdiction of its harbors to ships of war, and all non-intercourse and non-importation acts, as far as respects G. Britain, leaving them in force with respect to France, and the powers which adopt or act under her decrees.
2d. (What is of the utmost importance, as precluding a new source of misunderstanding, which might arise after the adjustment of the other questions,) That America is willing to renounce, during the present war, the pretension of carrying on in time of war all trade with the enemy's colonies, from which she was excluded during peace.
3d. Great Britain, for the purpose of securing the operation of the embargo, and the bona fide intention of America to prevent her citizens from trading with France, and the powers adopting and acting under the French decrees, is to be considered as being at liberty to capture all such American vessels as may be found attempting to trade with the ports of any of these powers; without which security for the observance of the embargo, the raising it nominally with respect to Great Britain alone, would in fact raise it in respect to all the world.
On these conditions his majesty would consent to withdraw the Orders in council of January and November, 1807, so far as respects America.
As the first and second of these conditions are the suggestions of the persons in authority in America to you, and as Mr. Pinkney has recently (but the first time) expressed to me his opinion, that there
would be no indisposition on the part of his government to the enforcement by the naval power of Great Britain of the regulations of America with respect to France, and the countries to which these regulations continue to apply, but that his government was itself aware, that without such enforcement those regulations must be altogether nugatory; I flatter myself that there will be no difficulty in obtaining a distinct and official recognition of these conditions from the American government.
For this purpose you are at liberty to communicate this dispatch in extenso to the American Secretary of State.
Upon receiving through you on the part of the American government, a distinct and official recognition of the three mentioned conditions, his majesty will lose no time in sending to America a formal and regular treaty.
As, however it is possible that the delay which must intervene before the actual conclusion of a treaty may appear to the American government to deprive this arrangement of part of its benefits, I am so authorize you if the American government be desirous of acting upon the agreement before it is reduced to a regular form, (either by immediate repeal of the embargo, and the other acts in question, or by engaging to repeal them on a particular day) to assure the American government of his majesty's readiness to meet such a disposition in the manner best calculated to give it immediate effect.
Upon the receipt here of an official note, containing an engagement for the adoption by the American government of the three conditions above specified, his majesty will be prepared, on the faith of such engagement, either immediate (if the repeal shall have been immediate in America) or on days specified by the American government for that repeal, reciprocally to recall the orders in council, without waiting for the conclusion of the treaty; and you are authorized, in the circumstances herein described, to make such reciprocal engagements on his majesty's behalf.
I am, &c.

Latest from France.
Last evening arrived at this port, the ship Hope, capt. Humphries, 35 days from Bordeaux. The Hope has brought upwards of 50 passengers, and sailed by special permission. Capt. H. has furnished the editor of the Mercantile Advertiser with Paris papers to the 9th of June inclusive, but upon a hasty perusal, we do not find that they contain any thing new.
We learn from the captain and passengers that the dispatch ship Mentor, capt. Ward, remained at L'Orient, waiting the orders of gen. Armstrong, our minister at Paris; and that the U. S. brig Syren, was to be immediately dispatched from L'Orient to England—that no account of any new battle between the emperor Bonaparte and the archduke Charles had reached Bordeaux—that the affairs between America and France remained in statu quo.
In addition to the above, a passenger in the Hope, has favored us with the following extract of a letter, dated the 15th June, from Bordeaux, which was sent to him just as the Hope was leaving the Cordovan.
The commissary of marine at Rochefort, has just written to the maritime prefect at Bordeaux, not to grant any more clearances to American vessels, as they had just heard that the commercial intercourse between America and France had been suspended by a law of the American Congress on the 20th day of May last.
The Hope sailed from the Cordovan on the 20th of June.

TO PARENTS.
The annexed cases of cures performed by HAMILTON'S CELEBRATED WORM DESTROYING LOZENGE S.
(Selected from a very numerous list.)
ARE presented as indubitable proof of the excellence and safety of this valuable specific, for destroying worms in the human stomach and intestines.
From Mr. Benjamin Williams, No. 30, Baltimore street, two doors above south Gay-street.
I have a son six years of age, who for four years past, has been generally in a very unhealthy state, particularly in summer; frequently afflicted with alarming convulsion fits, the whole of his little frame wasted fast, his breath foetid, and almost constant itching at the nose was excited, with other alarming symptoms. During the course of the above period, the advice and attendance of three of the most eminent physicians in Baltimore were successively procured. Each of these gentlemen, in his turn, declared worms to be the cause of the child's disorder, and exhausted his skill in attempting to expel them. Pink root, steel filings, with a variety of other medicines, were administered without the least success. It was once pronounced impossible for the child to live many hours.
I had heard of your Worm Destroying Lozenges, but with many others did not think highly of so cheap a medicine, until a gentleman of my acquaintance (Mr. Wm. S. Moore, auctioneer) in whose family they had been used with good effect, advised me to make trial of them; I accordingly gave my son a dose agreeable to directions, which soon expelled eight large worms, some of them about eight inches in length; a second dose brought away four more of similar size; a third dose being administered, no worms appeared. The child recovered and now enjoys a good state of health.
BENJAMIN WILLIAMS.
AFFIDAVIT.
Michael Duffy, residing at No. 47, Walkers street Fell's Point, in the city of Baltimore, voluntarily maketh oath that the following statement is just and true:
In the beginning of May last, my three children, a boy of seven, and two girls the one five, and the other three years of age were taken very ill, nearly at the same time, of a common fever, as I then supposed; but was soon convinced the disorder was caused by worms. They were frequently troubled with convulsion fits, and violent startings in their sleep, and with almost continual vomiting and purging, particularly the youngest. I made immediate application to a physician of the first reputation, and his medicines were administered with a co-ff. ence of success, which only increased our disappointment. The children grew daily worse, and I was absolutely without hopes of their recovery. The youngest soon appeared almost devoid of animation, and scarcely an inhabitant of this world. In this distressing moment I was told that Hamilton's Worm Destroying Lozenges had performed many cures in cases equally desperate. I immediately purchased a box, and gave each of them a dose, which in a few hours produced the most desirable effects. The eldest voided a great number of very large worms, and the second thousands of small ones, many of them not a quarter of an inch—in the youngest they seemed to be consumed, and had the appearance of skin and slimy matter. I repeated the dose agreeable to the paper of directions, and they all speedily recovered a good state of health, which they still enjoy, though 5 months have nearly elapsed since they were on the borders of the grave, and the death of the whole seemed to be inevitable.

TO H. LEE.
Some time last spring I was afflicted with loss of appetite, giddiness in the head, fever, and great debility, so that I could scarcely walk. In this distressing situation I took many things, but without benefit. An acquaintance in the country sent to me to procure a box of Hamilton's Lozenges. Curiosity prompted me to read the directions, where I found my complaint exactly described by the doctor. I immediately sent for another box of the Lozenges, and took one dose, which brought away a large quantity of worms, and I felt greatly relieved. Encouraged by this, I took another dose, which was attended with the happiest effects, as it relieved me entirely, and am now in a better state of health than for a considerable time past. I have since given them to my children, and can speak from experience, that they are a most valuable medicine, and am happy to add my testimony to numberless others of their efficacy.
SARAH JOHNSON,
No. 140, north Second Street.
Among the symptoms attending Worms are, disagreeable breath, especially in the morning—bad and corrupted gums—itching in the nose and about the seat—convulsions,
epileptic fits, and sometimes privation of speech—irregular appetite, sometimes loathing food and sometimes voracious—purging, with slimy and foetid stools—vomiting—large and hard belly—pains and sickness at the stomach—pains in the head and thighs, with lowness of spirits—slow fever, with small and irregular pulse—a dry cough—excessive thirst—sometimes pale and unhealthy countenance, and sometimes the face bloated and flushed.
Persons afflicted with any of the above symptoms, should have immediate recourse to Hamilton's Worm Destroying Lozenges , which have been constantly attended with success in all complaints similar to those above described.
Prevention better than Cure.
In cases of head ache, foul stomach, and for removing superfluous bile, perhaps no remedy has been discovered superior to LEE'S HAHN'S ANTIBILIOUS PILLS , Which for 10 years past have been attended with the greatest success. The testimony of many respectable persons in our southern seaports has been adduced who have reason to believe that a timely use of this salutary remedy during the prevalence of malignant fevers, has preserved their health after experiencing alarming symptoms of fever.
Certificate of Wm. Devenny.
During the last nine years I have been in the habit of using Hahn's Antibilious Pills, prepared by the late Mr. Lee, whenever colds, head ache or costiveness have rendered medicine necessary; in these cases a single dose has uniformly removed my head ache, and has generally been found sufficient to remove every symptom of a cold, if taken on its first appearance. Induced by the benefit I have received, I have for years past recommended them to many of my friends, and I have the pleasure to inform you, they have invariably succeeded in removing the above complaints.
Yours, WM. DEVENNY, No. 145, Cherry street, New York.
ITCH CURED.
Lee's Sovereign Ointment for the Itch, a certain cure by once using; Hamilton's Lozenges; Hamilton's Elixir, for Coughs; the celebrated Antibilious Pills; Hamilton's Essence of Mustard, for the Rheumatism; Tooth-Ache Drops; Hamilton's Grand Restorative for Debility.
TAKE NOTICE. —That imitations of the above medicines are for sale in this town—therefore please to apply only to Jas. Kennedy, sen. Bookseller, King-street, Alex. who has long been sole agent for the sale of the genuine preparations. As a further security against imposition, each genuine article has on its outside wrapper, the signature of Hannah Lee, Widow of the late Proprietor.

DIRECTIONS HOW TO USE YARWOOD'S Patent Washing Machine.
First fill the barrel half full of your finest cloths, then fill the bottom of the Reservoir with hot suds up to the side planks, turn the Crank backwards and forwards so as to make the cloaths fall the hardest against the sides of the barrel for about twenty-five minutes, then use the same suds with a little more soap and hot water for the next finest cloaths, until the suds are unfit for use, then second your cloaths in the same way with boiling suds, after rubbing a little soap on the dirtiest parts of the cloaths; then rinse them in the machine in warm or cold water.

A CELEBRATED ROMANCE ENTITLED
ABAELLINO,
THE BRAVO OF VENICE.
Translated from the German, by M. G. Lewis, the well known author of the Castle Spectre, Monk, Adelgitha, &c. &c. Price, handsomely bound, one dollar—the English edition sold at one dollar seventy-five cents.
What black Musician conjures up this fiend? What, do you tremble, are ye all afraid? Alas, I blame ye not, for ye are mortal, And mortal eyes cannot endure the devil— Avaunt, thou dreadful Minister of Hell.
RICHARD III.
In justice to this excellent Romance, we need only remark, that the Grand Dramatic piece, which for several seasons past drew such full houses to our theatre, is founded on the same subject, as translated by Dunlop; but the acknowledged superiority of Lewis's writings or translations in the Romance style, being so far superior to any other of our modern authors, leaves encomium unnecessary with the publishers.
NOTE. Five editions of this Romance were sold in a very short time, after publication in London—it is dedicated to the Earl of Moira, by Lewis.
