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 as 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.

INTERESTING.
If the circumstances mentioned in the following article are true, they are highly important to this country; and particularly so to the southern states. The article is copied from the Aurora—a source, we acknowledge, entitled to very little credit. In the year 1800, the editor of the Aurora told his readers,
That Fairfield county, in Connecticut, produced a breed of sheep very superior to any other in America;
That the inhabitants of that county had already established extensive and useful woollen manufactures; and
That the government of England, whose woollen manufactures are its staple commodity, had become jealous of the rich and growing rivalry of Fairfield county, and sent over agents to purchase up this valuable breed of sheep for the purpose of destroying the woollen manufactures of America.
The man, who, to answer party purposes, could seriously tell this silly tale, might very easily, with the same object in view fabricate the story we are now about to copy. He tells us, it is true, that the facts are contained in a letter from an unknown hand, dated Savannah, August 29th. We sincerely wish the story may prove correct; but still we must be permitted to express the opinion, that, all circumstances considered, it does not, at present, deserve implicit belief.
Your extensive information must have made you acquainted with the ravages which have been committed on the cotton-crops of Georgia and South Carolina, by a species of caterpillar—many hundred acres of cotton have been totally destroyed in a few weeks by those insects; and many opulent planters have been brought to the verge of ruin. But it appears probable, that what has been hitherto our greatest curse, will now be to us a blessing.—An ingenious and patriotic gentleman has ascertained beyond the possibility of doubt, that cocoon of the caterpillar, which press on cotton, affords full as much silk, and nearly of as good quality, as that from the cocoon of the silk worm. It must be known to you, that early in the last century, when the province of Georgia was settled under the management of trustees, it was supposed that silk would be the grand staple of the country. A large building for its preparation was erected in Savannah, and some of it was exported to London, but it appeared that the silks of the Levant and Mediterranean, could be afforded at a lower price, and its culture was discontinued.
It seems like a special interference of Providence, in times of distress like those at present, (for which distress we have to thank the tyrants of the ocean—the Carthage of modern Europe) that a valuable staple should be discovered within ourselves. Many planters fear that from the immense quantity of silk which can be gathered, the market will be glutted, and that they will not be paid for their labor. I am of a different opinion; as the insect does not appear oftener than one year out of four or five, and as I am sure that the raw silk will not be injured by keeping for that space of time.
If you find this communication worthy of a place in your paper, by publishing it you will greatly oblige many of the southern planters, particularly one who is your friend, and has been long your
SUBSCRIBER.

A GOOD STORY TWICE TOLD.
OR,
THE ALLEGORICAL SNAKE.
MR. RUSSELL,
I cannot help thinking that the following has something prophetic in it; or at least, it discovers some acquaintance with the nature of mankind. It was first published in the CENTINEL, July 1805.
“In the year 1801, I was walking in the woods, and heard a sound, which appeared like two persons in conversation—I turned and looked to where the voice seemed to come from—saw a Snake—and to my surprise found that the Head and Tail was disputing. Says the Tail to the Head, I am dissatisfied—What's the difficulty? said the Head. Why, I think you have had the lead long enough, replied the Tail, and I am determined to follow no longer. Well, what have I done, observed the Head, that is improper? It seems to be the design of nature herself that I should lead and we have always gone forwards heretofore with ease and propriety: Besides, I have eyes; you have none: I have ears; you none: But what alarms me is, we have in our movements, gone forwards; we shall now of course, go backwards. But, replied the Tail, you have
tyranized over me long enough. I believe, we were born free and equal; Liberty and Equality is my motto. Well, said the Head, experience is the best school master; and (to convince you that I never led, from a disposition to tyrannize, but only because our wise maker fitted me to that purpose) take the lead, and go on.—The Head having bowed submission, the Tail reared its sightless front and began its career with rapidity, dragging the complaisant Head. It had not gone far, before it ran between two sturdy Hemlocks, that almost touched each other and struck FAST.) The Tail writhed and twisted. Why don't you go forward? (cried the Head, shrewdly.) The Tail, (unwilling to suffer the mortification from having so short a reign) tried again, crying out “O dear!” What's the matter, Tail? said the Head—“I can't get out!” it replied. He was fast. Well, said the Head, I hope you are now satisfied of the truth of what I told you at first; and that you was never designed in wisdom to lead.—The Tail, for his last reply, confessed his ignorance and folly—and gave up the lead to the Head; which soon removed the difficulty—and the Snake went off with its usual ease and sprightliness into the bushes, out of sight.
FOREIGN.
(VIA NEW-YORK.)
LONDON, July 18.
The Orestes is arrived at Plymouth with dispatches from lord Collingwood and sir Charles Cotton. They have not brought any further accounts relative to Dupont: but they state that a severe action has been fought between Sarragossa and Barcelona, in which the French were almost all cut to pieces—and finally, that all Portugal is in a state of insurrection.
The following bulletin was issued at a late hour this morning:
Downing-street, July 18.
“Letters have been received at this office from major general Spencer, off Ayamonte, dated the 25th and 26th of June. The major general was on his return off Cadiz, from the southern coast of Portugal, where he left the Portuguese flag flying along the whole extent of coast of the province of Algarve, in all the forts and batteries.
“The Spanish frontier on the side of Ayamonte, had remained perfectly secure since the British force had approached that coast, and the detachments of the enemy's force, which on general Spencer's arrival, had retired to Villa Real and Castromarin, have since surrendered themselves with the above mentioned places, to the Portuguese troops.”
The following additional bulletin was issued in the afternoon:
Downing-street, July 18.
“Advises from lord Collingwood of the 26th of June state, that accounts had been received that Dupont was in great distress, surrounded on all sides, and disappointed of expected reinforcements. On the 16th he retired six leagues behind Cordova—the Spanish army advanced. Intelligence had arrived that Dupont had proposed to capitulate, if allowed to pass into France unopposed: but nothing short of unconditional surrender would be accepted. Dupont had retired to Andujar. Castanos's outposts were Alda de Rio, within two miles of the enemy's rear. The whole regular force under Castanos amounts to 21,000 infantry, 2,500 cavalry, and a formidable train of artillery.
“One of the French men of war (the Hannibal) was fitting out, and would sail for Vera Cruz. One of the frigates was fitting out for Buenos-Ayres, and another man of war for Lima, all of which were to proceed with the utmost dispatch to their respective places of destination, to announce to the various governments what had taken place: & that Spain was at peace with England. The French officers were allowed to remain on parole; & when the Revenge sailed, they were aboard the French ships, not choosing to encounter the fury of the mob. Commissioners for the prizes had been regularly appointed by the supreme junta at Seville and they had entered on their duty. The people of all classes wore the union cockade—it is of a circular form, the rim is of the Spanish red, and in the centre of a complete English black cockade—at the top is a V. (Viva)—on the left side F. (Ferdinando), and on the right, VII.
“The Junta of Seville have sent orders to the Spanish squadron at Minorca to return to Carthagena.
“The women have resolved to get in the harvest in the province of Andalusia, that the men might join the patriotic bands.—The harvest is the most abundant that has been for several seasons. Upwards of 100 women actually dressed themselves in soldier's clothes and offered their services to the patriots—but their sex was discovered.
STATE PAPER.
Answer of his Eminence Cardinal Gadreilli, First Secretary of State, to the note of his excellency M. Champagny, addressed to M. Le Fevre, charge d'affaires from the emperor of France, dated
APRIL 19, 1808.
“After your excellency had made known to the holy father, that it was the decided wish of his majesty the emperor and king, that he should enter into an offensive and defensive league with the other powers of Italy, as had been declared by M. Champagny to the cardinal Caprara, by force of the 3d current, the dispatch of the said cardinal has been received, which brought the original note of the said minister.
“The holy father, after having attentively read and considered the said document, has ordered Gabrielli, first secretary of state, to make known to your excellency his holiness sentiments on its contents: beginning with that which forms the cardinal point among all the others. His holiness has seen with pain, that even the final proposition therein contained of the offensive and defensive league, should be accompanied with the threat of depriving him of his temporal dominions in case of his non-compliance. If worldly considerations had at all influenced the conduct of the holy father, he would, from the first, have yielded to the wish of his majesty, and not have exposed himself to suffer so many calamities: but the holy father is regulated alone by the consideration due to his duty and his conscience both have prevented him from agreeing to the federation, and they equally hinder him from consenting to the offensive and defensive league, which differs but in name; its nature, however, does not except any prince to whom the pope, according to the circumstances of the times, might not become an enemy.
“His holiness feels, moreover, that this article, far from improving, detracts from his situation. In the articles presented to cardinal de Bayan, the federation was proposed as alone against heretics and the English. But this is couched in general terms pointing out no people as an enemy, yet excluding no government, no nation, from the contingency of becoming one. If, then, his holiness declined from conscientious motives to be a party to that federation, so is he equally withheld from this league. The holy father would not merely bind himself to a defence, but to an aggression. Then would be seen the minister of the God of Peace placing himself in a state of perpetual warfare; then would be seen their common father in arms against his children, and the head of the church exposing himself, by his own act, to a deprivation of his spiritual connexion with the Catholics of those powers against which the league would make it imperative on him to act hostily. How then can his holiness shake off his power and natural character, and sacrifice, as must be the consequence, the interest of religion?
“His holiness, unlike other princes, is invested with a two-fold character, namely, of sovereign pontiff, and of temporal sovereign, and has given repeated evidence that he cannot, by virtue of this second qualification, enter upon engagements that would lead to results militating against his first and most important office, and injuring the religion of which he is the head, the propagator, and the avenger. His holiness, therefore, cannot enter into any offensive and defensive league, which would, by a permanent and progressive system, drag him into hostility against all those powers upon which his majesty may think proper to make war; since the Italian states, now dependant upon his majesty, can never avoid taking part in such wars. His holiness would consequently be obliged to become a party in them by virtue of this league. Such an engagement must begin to be acted upon by the pope from this moment, and against any Catholic prince; thus waging war against him without a motive. Farther, it must be waged against all those powers, whether Catholic or not, who may, upon whatever grounds, be the enemies of any Italian prince.
“Thus is the head of the church, accustomed as he is to rule his estates in peace, driven in a moment to a state of warfare, offensive against hostile powers, defensive of the others. This engagement is too repugnant to the sacred duties of his holiness, and too injurious to the interests of religion, to be entered into by the head of that religion. His holiness feels that it would be dereliction of truth to enter into the league; he would announce by such a resolution his refusal of any accommodation, any peace with the emperor, and would even declare hostilities against him. How could it ever be supposed, that his holiness should be capable of declaring war against any power? He has long been enduring the most hostile treatment, and is therefore prepared to endure
the threatened loss of his temporal dominions.
“Heaven is witness of the purity of his holiness's intentions, and the world will judge if it was possible to have conceived so extraordinary a scheme. Ardently desiring to compromise, and to be in peace with his majesty, he manifested in his note of the 28th of January last, his compliance as far as it was possible to comply; his majesty, however, does not practise all the condescensions, which he might practise towards the holy see; he persists inflexibly in demanding what his holiness neither can nor will accede to, namely, in binding him to a war, and to a perpetual and aggressive war, under the pretence of securing the tranquility of Italy. What can Italy have to fear, if his holiness should not enter into the proposed league?
“Surrounded as the Papal dominions are by those of his majesty, no rational fear could be entertained but of the ports; yet his holiness having offered to shut them, during the present war, against the enemies of France, and to guard the coast; he then proposed to contribute, as far as was in his power, without betraying his sacred duties to the security and tranquility of Italy. In spite of all this, his majesty shall take possession as he has threatened, the Papal dominions, respected by all, even the most powerful monarchy, during a space of ten centuries and upwards, and shall overturn the government, his holiness will be unable to prevent this spoliation, and can only, in bitter affliction of heart, lament the evil which his majesty will commit in the sight of God; trusting, in whose protection, his holiness will remain in perfect tranquility, enjoying the consciousness of not having brought on this disaster by imprudence, or by obstinacy, but to preserve the independence of that sovereignty which he ought to transmit uninjured to his successors, as he received it; and to maintain, in its integrity that conduct which may secure the universal concurrence of all princes, so necessary to the welfare of religion. For this fidelity to his sacred duties, his holiness will receive consolation from this Divine Master.—“Blessed are they who are persecuted for righteousness sake.”
“With respect to the article relating to the dismissal of the Cardinals, his holiness, in the complaints alledged, had no need of examining the principles of their allegiance. Presuming on that freedom which the rights of nations allow to every man, to live under that sky which is most congenial to him; presuming on that new allegiance acquired by the domicile of many years, his holiness remarks that primitive allegiance cannot avail against the sacred obligations undertaken by the Cardinals in the church of God, the oaths they take on receiving the purple, and their eminent office of counsellors to the sovereign Pontiff in his spiritual concerns—and that therefore they cannot be torn from his bosom.
“With regard to the cessation of the functions of the legate, and to his departure, his holiness could hardly have expected that they would have been attributed to the motives assigned in M. Champagny's note.—His holiness will repeat them once more.—After having tried every method to recall his majesty to his previous sentiments towards the papal see, and to conceal the desired reparation of so many religious innovations; after having endured for such a length of time, with unsubdued patience, and unalterable meekness, so many outrages and insults; after having seen how fruitless were all the remonstrances urged against the hostile proceedings of the French; after having peaceably borne the humiliation of imprisonment; and seeing these insults, these contempts, these violations increase with every hour, his holiness found it necessary, though with the deepest regret, to determine on the recall of his legate, in order to overthrow, at least, in the face of the world, the false and scandalous opinion that whatever might occur, even the most flagrant wrongs, would receive his tacit consent.
“In this very recal, the precise period of which could not have been anticipated by his Holiness, be professed, along with those constant affectionate regards which he entertained for his majesty, that could he but consent to the demand of the evacuation of Rome, and be satisfied with those concessions which are compatible with the duties of his holiness, the legate might continue, in conformity with his instructions, to exercise his functions. But his majesty proved inflexible, and instead of receding a single step, preferred the discontinuance of the legation, and the departure of the Pontifical representative.
“It is not, therefore, his holiness, who by this hypothetical recal of his legate, has declared war against the emperor; it is the emperor who chooses to declare war against his holiness; and not content with declaring

against his temporal sovereignty, he threatens to raise in his spiritual, a wall of division between the catholics of France and the sovereign pontiff, in the assurance, according to M. Champagny's note, that the cardinal legate having given up his functions, the Gallican church resumed its doctrines with all its integrity.
His holiness has too good an opinion of the illustrious clergy of France to doubt that the Gallican church, however jealous of its prerogatives, is yet so attached to the chair of St. Peter, that it will maintain itself under its true principles, without asserting rights which it does not, and cannot possess, nor become schismatic, by separating itself from the Catholic Units.
It is not then—the repetition is important—it is not his holiness which seeks the rupture. A pacific Prince, notwithstanding he was obliged to witness the spoliation, in defiance of all right of his states of Benevento and Ponte Corvo; notwithstanding his enormous expence of maintaining French troops; notwithstanding the usurpation of his capital, the usurpation of almost all his sovereign rights; notwithstanding the violent dismissal of so many spiritual persons, composing his holy Senate; and notwithstanding all the other acts by which his dignity has been degraded, all that his holiness did was to command his people, when the French army entered Rome to shew it respect; all that his holiness did was to receive it in the most hospitable manner, and to implore of his majesty, in the mean time, relief from so many aggravated evils; and all that his holiness does now is to mourn between the vestibule and the altar, invoking the pity of heaven upon his people, and that by a return to better counsels, the most potent Napoleon will not suffer the inheritance of the Roman See, given by providence to the head of the Catholic church in full enjoyment, to be lost and rooted out.
Thus his holiness made war! Thus he conducted himself to the present hour towards his majesty, however distressing or unfortunate has been the result. Still his holiness will cherish the hope that his majesty, rejecting the counsel of the enemies of the holy see, who have had recourse to every art to change his disposition, will revert to their former friendly correspondence, and be satisfied with the concessions made in the note of the 23d of January. If, by the hidden purposes of the most high, this should not take place, and his majesty, regardless of his own glory, and deaf to the call of justice, should put his threats into execution, and take possession of the states of the church, by right of conquest, overturning the government in consequence, his holiness will be unable to remedy such fatal occurrences, but he solemnly declares that the first will not be a conquest, as his holiness is at peace with all the world, but will be a usurpation more violent than history can furnish; and the second will not be the result of conquest, but of that usurpation. He declares at the same time, that it will not be the work of political genius and illumination, but an awful visitation of that God from whom all Sovereignty is derived, and especially that given to the head of the Church.
Bowing, in that event, with profound adoration to the Decrees of Heaven, his holiness will find consolation in reflecting that the Creator and Redeemer willed these things, and that all concurs to accomplish his purposes when his appointed time arrives.
This is the answer which the undersigned is commanded by his holiness to give to the note of M. Champagny, and to communicate to your excellency.
Cardinal GABRIELLI.
BY THIS DAY'S MAIL.

VERMONT ELECTION.
The latest accounts of the election in Vermont, were received on Tuesday evening and appear in the Centinel of yesterday: They briefly state, that in 126 towns, the votes for the Federal Candidate as Governor was 9996, for democratic Candidate 9751 —That the list of Representatives chosen in 176 towns, presented the following result, FEDERAL 92—DEMOCRATIC 84.
These returns are from about an equal proportion of towns E. and W. of the mountain: and are supposed to present a tolerable correct index of the actual majorities for Governor and Representatives. Private reports are in favor of an augmented majority.
We have nothing more official than was given in our last, relative to the election of representatives to congress. Similar reports from other sources, corroborate the belief that three of the four federal candidates have been elected.
The Kentucky Reporter states that Benjamin Howard, Richard M. Johnson, Jos. Desha, Matthew Lyon, Henry Crist and Samuel M'Kee, are elected to represent the state of Kentucky in the eleventh Congress of the United States.
JOSEPH HAMILTON DAVEISS, a determined opponent of the Jeffersonian policy, has announced himself a candidate, for the district of south Kentucky river, for the office of an Elector of President and Vice President of the United States.
MR. GARNET, A Virginian member of the House of Representatives, and of the party opposed to the federalists, observes, in a letter addressed to his constituents: "That the embargo has placed great numbers of our seamen in the precise situation, in which impressment placed great numbers before; with this only difference, that HUNGER, instead of a press-gang, impelled them there."
WILLIAM FINDLEY, Esq. has declared himself opposed to the election of Simon Snyder as governor of Pennsylvania.
The secret appropriation of two millions.
I had not intended to remark upon this subject; and in truth, I hitherto never have. One of the tools who disgrace the American press by their ribaldry and devotion to the executive, by their attachment to France and enmity to the prosperity of their country—this tool has pompously written a letter to Mr. Duvall, the comptroller, inquiring whether the two millions have ever been taken out of the treasury. Mr. Duvall answers the money has not been taken out of the treasury. Although it would have been quite as becoming to wait for the certificate of the register, which Mr. Duvall intimates is about to be published, this coxcomb editor, anxious to make himself important, anticipates it by publishing his own letter and the answer. Every man who knows Mr. Duvall, respects as truth, what he may say. He does not say, however, that the money was not pledged, for this far he would not go; much less could he say that the faith of the United States was not engaged to pay it. These are matters not within his knowledge, and it would be so obviously absurd for him to certify anything about them, that judging from his prudence, I should suppose he would decline doing so, if asked. It must be observed, that he answers the letter from a reference to his office, and not his personal knowledge; the latter he might or might not have, according to the degree of voluntary confidence to which the members of the cabinet might admit him, but I presume he would decline repeating what he thus knew, in a formal certificate.
Mr. Duvall's answer therefore merely proves, that the money had not been drawn out of the treasury. Whether the credit which the law gave the administration, has been employed in whole or in part, the secretary of state alone can answer officially; for the secrets of his department cannot be supposed to fly at random into the treasury. The drawing of the money out of the treasury is a very different fact. Pecuniary transactions may go on for years, where there are mutual credits; and the accounting officers of the treasury know nothing of them, until the account is presented for settlement, at the conclusion of which a warrant or warrants issue, to pay away the balance if any is due to the agent.
I have said thus much by way of answer to the call, which the democratic papers have made, to republish the above mentioned letter and answer. [North American.]
Extract of a letter from Pablo Serra, a respectable merchant of Havanna, a member of the Consulado, to a mercantile house in Baltimore.
HAVANNA, August 23, 1808. Mr. —, will sail in a few days. Should your ports soon be opened, I think we will continue to admit your vessels. But should the embargo continue for a month or two longer, I am of opinion we shall shut our ports against your flag, as we shall consider such conduct as hostility against us, in obedience to the orders of that worst and greatest tyrants, NAPOLEON. We can get a plenty of provisions from Vera Cruz and Campeachy, and all other articles which we want will be supplied from Spain and England.
I shall lament ever to consider the United States as enemies to a patriot people, who are struggling for the same object which produced your war and separation from England. The English were then your oppressors. But you seem to have changed characters. They are our protectors, and you would starve us into a submission to a base usurper. Both the Junta and consulado have had your conduct under consideration and were with some difficulty restrained from retaliating your cruelties, by shutting our ports forever against you. We are in perfect tranquility. I think nothing can disturb or annihilate it."
COMMERCIAL.
Communicated for the Norfolk Ledger. Translation of extracts of letters from a respectable French house at Bordeaux to a merchant of this place. June 11—
The real scarcity of colonial, and other foreign produce, beginning at length to be severely felt, has induced a croud of speculators of all ranks, and even of all professions to crowd into our markets, the unavoidable consequence of which was, a rapid and continual advance in our prices. The wide field of adventure in the South Sea stock of England, Law's extravagant project in France scarcely were productive of a greater rage for speculation, than has been exhibited for some weeks among the purchasers of colonial produce—coffee advanced in price rose 50 sous per pound—sugar 150 francs per hundred—Spanish indigo 30 francs per lb. cottons 305 francs per hundred—pepper 4 francs per lb. and many other articles in the same proportions. The continuance of this extraordinary state of things, depending on the duration of measures which produced it, cannot be calculated upon."
July 6—"The great activity in business, which is notice in my last advices, had raised the prices of Colonial, and produce of the U. States, greatly above the high quotations then transmitted, when the fever of speculation was suddenly cooled by ingenious artifices contrived to counteract it—a report was circulated and even publicly announced, by the minister of foreign affairs, purporting that the king of England was dead, and that the prince of Wales was come to the throne, surrounded by new ministers, who were ardent advocates for a peace. The holders of goods had scarcely recovered from the alarm produced by this report, when a new and more effectual check was given to their enterprize."
The National Bank at Paris, which had heretofore granted extensive facilities, suddenly refused to discount any paper, arising from, or in any way connected with speculations in colonial or other produce. This produced a momentary distress for money, and compelled some to sell at a loss of 25 per cent. For two weeks a complete stagnation in business has prevailed, and prices merely nominal. Few holders will now sell and although those political stratagems have had the effect of damping the ardor of speculation, they will not prevent the prices from rising again, if the impediments to importations continue to exist, and of which there is every probability."
My Friends & Fellow-Soldiers,
I meet you this evening with heart felt satisfaction, knowing the readiness you shewed when we first took up arms to defend this place against any invading foe.
I know your zeal and hope you will transmit to your sons that love of country that beat high in each breast at the time you engaged, in honorable phalanx, to support and defend this town as a fixed band "firm in defence of your country." Altho' past that fervor of youth that make men more zealous than in the evening of manhood, yet we dared to shew to youth that we were not afraid to die in defence of our rights. May the American people ever know the honest and true friends to their cause, and may they rely only on those who dare be honest in the worst of times—May the American Eagle soar above all despotism, is the ardent and sincere prayer of your true friend and fellow-citizen, late Standard Bearer of the Honorable Silver Grey Company.
