Prevention better than Cure. For the prevention and cure of Bilious and Malignant Fevers, is recommended, DR. HAHN'S Anti-bilious Pills, WHICH have been attended with a degree of success highly grateful to the inven- tor's feelings, in several parts of the West- Indies, and the southern parts of the United States; particularly in Baltimore, Petersburg, Rich- mond, Norfolk, Edenton, Wilmington, Char- leston, Savannah, &c. The testimony of a num- ber of persons in each of the above places can be adduced, who have reason to believe that a timely use of this salutary remedy, has, under Providence, preserved their lives when in the most alarming circumstances. Facts of this conclusive nature speak more in favour of a medicine, than columns of pompous eulogy, founded on mere assertion, could do. It is not indeed presumptuously proposed as an infallible cure, but the inventor has every possible reason, which can result from extensive experience for believing that a dose of these pills, taken once every two weeks during the preva- lence of our annual bilious fevers, will prove an infallible preventative; and further, that in the earlier stages of these diseases, their use will very generally succeed in restoring health and frequently in cases esteemed desperate and bey- ond the power of common remedies. The operation of these pills is perfectly mild and may be used with safety by persons in every situation and of every age. They are excellently adapted to carry off su- perfluous bile and prevent its morbid secretions; to restore and amend the appetite; to produce a free perspiration and thereby prevent colds which are often of fatal consequence. A dose never fails to remove a cold if taken on its first appearance. They are celebrated for removing habitual costiveness, sickness of 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 most disorders attend- ant on long voyages, and should be procured and carefully preferred for use by every seaman.
DR. HAHN'S Genuine Eye-water. A certain and safe remedy for all diseases of the eyes, whether the effect of natural weakness, or of accident, speedily removing inflammations, de- fluxions of rheum, dullness, itching, and films in the eyes, never failing to cure those maladies which frequently succeed the small-pox, measles and fe- vers, and wonderfully strengthening a weak sight. Hundred have experienced its excellent virtues when nearly deprived of sight.
Tooth-ache Drops. The only remedy yet discovered which gives im- mediate and lasting relief in the most severe in- stances. The Anodyne Elixir. For the cure of every kind of head-ache, and of pains in the face and neck.
Infalible Ague and Fever Drops. This medicine has never failed, in many thou- sand cases not one in a hundred has had occasion to take more than one bottle, and numbers not half a bottle. The money will be returned if the cure is not performed.

HAMBURGH, September 1. Letter from Copenhagen, the 26th August.
The Danish schooner which was sent to Petriburg with the account of the capture of the frigate Freya, is this moment returned. Of the dispatches which it brought, nothing is yet known; but greater activity and exertions in forwarding the preparations are observed.
Another letter from Copenhagen, of the same date, 26th August.
Although the preparations for defence become more serious every day, yet nothing of a hostile nature hath hitherto happened between us and the English.
Meanwhile, the English Minister here, Lord Whitworth, has demanded a categorical answer to his proposals to our Court in a short time, and proposes to leave this city on Friday with his whole suit, the charge d'Affaires, Drummond excepted.
LOWER ELBE, August 28.
We hear from the Danish dominions, that all the regiments are likewise called in from the Duchies. The regiments at Sleswig, it is said, are to march to Flensburg and the neighbouring coast.
ELSINEUR, August 26.
We are yet in a total uncertainty whether we shall have peace or war with England. On the 24th in the evening, the Danish ships of war weighed twice, in order to go further into the harbour; the English immediately weighed likewise, and came to an anchor where the others did.
Last night at ten o'clock a cry was made in the streets, that the English had attempted a landing between this and Hammersborg, where an English frigate lays. Every body was alarmed.
HAGUE, August 10.
The day before yesterday the report spread already, that five English men of war, several frigates and a great number of transports had appeared off Catford the day before, but now had come in sight of the harbour of Flushing.

BOSTON, October 13. Extract of letters from Tortola, received by the Hannah, arrived here yesterday.
TORTOLA, September 17.
DEAR SIR, The seizure and detention of the barque Galen, Thomas Ashby, master, of Salem, and cargo, has no doubt made some noise in America.
Another letter of same date, in mentioning this scandalous transaction, observes; - "I am happy in informing you, that the Galen would have been acquitted, as to the trade she had been carrying on, the Judge thinking the trade at present indulged at Trinidad a just and politic measure, and which the Governor no doubt was authorised to allow."
This letter, after stating the same reasons for her detention, as are mentioned above, adds; - "The judge therefore ordered further proofs as to those matters, and Commissioners have been appointed at Trinidad to examine evidence thereon."
We have been furnished with the whole Proceedings of the Admiralty at Tortola, in the case of the Galen, but which on account of their length must be deferred till Thursday.

DEMOCRATIC DEVICES.
Among the ingenious tricks, practiced by the Jacobins, the following deserves particular mention. It will serve to show the meanness as well as vice of the French party in this country. Among the Aurora gang some wretch is found, who can spell correctly, and write a good hand. He is employed to make up packets of ribaldry, blasphemy, or sedition. The name of some respectable character at a distance is then inscribed on the cover, and the person to whom the letter is addressed is requested to disseminate the articles, which it contains. Through hurry and negligence, it sometimes happens that this is actually the case; and Auroras, compounded of falsehood and folly, and penny pamphlets, and libelous ballads have been current through a whole County. At any rate, the person to whom this trash is thus communicated, often has to pay the most vexatious of all taxes, the postage for non-sense and treason. Letters of this complexion have been left in the box in Congress Hall, and respectable, and Federal Members have been desired to forward them to their constituents. Packets have likewise been made up, and addressed to some respectable Clergymen, particularly to those of the gravest character, and of the established Church. Sometimes these letters are thrown into houses by a Jacobin caver-dropper, and sometimes they come through the Post Office. On opening them, they have been found to contain SAVAGE's obscene and injurious Poem, called "The progress of a Divine," and a scoundrel ballad, belching out curses against aristocracy and EDMUND BURKE, against religion and morality. A vagrant scribbler, a sort of Pere Duchesse of his party, and who is notoriously as mad as a March hare, is supposed to be the miserable tool of "the Arch Jugglers behind the curtain." The depravity and profligate objects of this last scheme are enough to fill any sober mind with horror. Such is Jacobin reform, Jacobin decency, and salutary reformation. Contempt of civil and ecclesiastical authority, obscenity, deism, and blasphemy are avowed, and propagated by the skulling agents of the party. The worthy, and federal ecclesiastics, who have been thus insulted, look sharp to actually detect the lunatic runner, who throws his Jacobin filth into their doors, and windows. A roll in the kennel, or a Negro with a horsewhip, will require these virtuous labours.
LEVITY.
A correspondent observes in a late Gazette some symptoms of the Editor's being in love. She therefore begs he will accept of this receipt to cure the poison her experience vouches for the infallibility of it.
You must open the vein of consideration, and let out the blood of immoderate affection, then make use of the following directions—Take the blossoms of sound judgement, one handful, five handfuls of patience: one handful of the root of understanding, twelve ounces of resolution, prudence and distinction, two ounces of dislike and resentment. Let them simmer together in your brains 48 hours, then sweeten the dose of the former remembrance with the sugar of good behaviour and pour it through the funnel of contentment into the heart and stop it with the cork of indifference.
N. B. The ingredients are to be had at the house of Resolution, next door to Reason, in Content Street, in the town of Faith, and province of Truth.
For the Gazette of the United States.
Lo! in the East! appear'd the auspicious star, Whose blissful dawn the nations hail'd afar; By Angels wated through the midst of Heaven, Glad tidings to the joyful world were given, Through boundless space, the Gospel-millio[n] borne, To endle[ss] time, proclaimed the glorious morn: Devotion fired the peaceful Shepherd's breath, And ancient Sces, the world's red armr blest, Prostrate, to Judah's King, their gifts prefer: Of orient "gold, and frankincense and Myrrh."
At the commencement of an important era, referred to, in those scriptural passages, which I have taken the liberty to paraphrase, the luminous path of christianity was discerned by wise men from the East; who believed in, and were guided by those prophetic declarations, to which the Divine light was affixed: And when the day-star arose, immediate effects were produced. The Gospel history illustrates their prompt obedience to sacred requisition; and not satisfied with presenting "gifts of gold, and frankincense" they "prostrated themselves and worshipped." Rays of divinity were transfused to various classes in society; Shepherds as well as Sces evinced their faith, in that perfect covenant which was ordained in the hand of a Mediator! and in the energetic language of inspiration, they were described praising and glorifying God. And shall we, who are the children of promise; descended from believing parents, shall we, who are enjoined to walk worthy of the same high vocation, refuse the dedication of our lives to him who hath called us to glory and to virtue? As the privilege of thought and of speech was granted by that charter, which precedes human institutions, those inestimable rights have been secured by the laws of the land, and guarded by rational restraint, which is the boundary line between liberty and licentiousness. Enjoying this freedom, in common with the citizens of my country, I have occasionally wandered from retirement to the haunts of society, exercising those charities, which are the springs of mental life; and with a view of investigating those pursuits and pleasures, from whence
the character of individuals and of nations is given. And as the present eventful period is calculated to excite the highest energies of the human mind, it is natural to enquire if the pure spirit of christianity is maintained by modern wise men, who are influenced in the letter of the Gospel: and whether those doctrines, which the primitive church is so nobly supported, have become the rule and guide of their lives? To this distinguished class the treasures of wisdom are unlock'd; and from the influence of that principle, which is the only true feature of greatness, an impressive and powerful example is due. Yet how rarely are the pursuits of men directed to useful objects; or their talents occupied in an appropriate sphere! When the "tribute money" was shewn to the Divine Author of christianity, subjects to human powers were enjoined to "render tribute where it was due;" and is there not an higher obligation upon those who are formed in the divine similitude, and stamped with the image of perfection, to dedicate their talents to that Omnipotent Being, whose image and supercription they bear? But alas! how are these energies directed by which genius gains celebrity? Are they not "wasted in strenuous idleness?" And instead of diffusing virtue by the salutary influence of example, do not schemes of pleasure, pursuits of ambition, dissipation in youth, and avarice in age, demonstrate to the world this melancholy truth, that our lustre is waning, "the gold changed, and the fine gold become dim."
Federalism of Gloucester County, New-Jersey.
Jemmy Sloan, done over—or, Amos is up—what's Jemmy?
MR. WAYBURN. Our Election closed last night; we took 330 votes in this township—they stood as follows:
Table with 2 columns: Federal, Democrat. Rows: Abel Clemens 227, Samuel French 222, Samuel W. Harrison 221, John Collins 135, Amos Cooper 120, Jeremiah Wood 104.
Mr. Collins is reputed a Federalist, he was taken up by the Jacobins, against his will to run with them, to divine the Federal interest. We have nine other townships in this county, from each of which, except Gloucester township, you may expect decided majorities; Woolwich will give us 500 dead votes, so that you may count with certainty, that the Federal Ticket will succeed here.

Several valuable saw mills, valued at 6000 pounds sterling, has been destroyed by fire in Charleston Neck, (South Carolina.)
From Norfolk we learn, that the fever has so far subsided as to render the publication of the deaths unnecessary.
Well authenticated accounts from Suffolk, authorise a belief, that an insurrection was intended to have commenced in that neighbourhood about the time the discovery was made at Richmond. It is well ascertained, that on the 6th and 7th of September, there were 150 blacks assembled near whitlock's Mill, for the purpose of acting in concert with those of Richmond; Among them were 20 from Norfolk: These never left the neighbourhood until after it was known that the Richmond plan had failed. Some are committed to jail, but the evidence is supposed to be insufficient. [Petersburg pap.]
For the 48 hours preceding Wednesday morning, there were 18 deaths in Baltimore. Total number in the hospital sick with the prevailing disease, 23. Convalescents, 12. Discharged cured, 9.
CONFIRMATION Of the Capture of Curacoa, and Massacre of Americans, by the French.
A gentleman from Kingston, arrived this morning, informs that on the 7th of Sept. about 80 Americans were massacred at Curacoa by the French, along with a number of the Dutch inhabitants; the rest of the Americans and Dutch were shut up in the fort. Captain Hampton, of this port, was at Curacoa, and had slipped out in a small boat, with a request from the Governor to the commander of the British frigate Nariad, then cruising off the harbour, requesting succour. The Capt. of the N. sent him all the marines he could spare, with whom Capt. H. returned. The Governor had also sent to Jamaica for assistance, and on the 20th ult. 3 frigates with 700 troops, left Kingston for Curacoa. The French have about 1400 men, and have possession of the town and harbour—Gen. Rigaud is there.

Mr. Jos pb Wif. man. Sir.
The Intendant-General of this city some days ago issued an order, by which he demands a certificate of the Spanish Consul from all American vessels of that port which they may have cleared out from, and in order to get admitted. The sloop Ranger, which arrived at this port the 16th of August, having a certificate, I was under the necessity of entering bonds, so as to have her unladen. You will be so good as to send me a certificate for her. In the mean time, I am, &c.

Tench Coxe tells us, that he neither guided nor escorted the British army into Philadelphia. Tench is good at subterfuge. Can he deny that he belonged to the American army? Can he deny that he basely deserted from that army and joined the British? and that he entered the city of Philadelphia with them? Can he deny that he solicited a pardon and obtained it thro' the influence of Federalists, who respected his connexions, and pitied himself? Can he deny that certain Federalists expecting that he had turned from his sins and was a friend to America, honored him with several appointments, and among the rest, that of commissioner of the Revenue? Can he deny that like the serpent who bit those who fostered him, he basely abused his friends in the administration, and was deservedly turned out of office? Can he deny that from that period he became a flaming democrat and consequently has ever since abused the administration of the American Government? Can he deny that by doing so, he has gained an office under the patriot M c Kean? Can he deny, that he is now only striving to delude and deceive the people so that he may get a better office under Jefferson?

Wednesday, the wind blowing hard, directly from the land, a ship was discovered in the offing, apparently in distress, having lost her main-mast by the board. As night began to approach she anchored in the Bay, and the following morning she was reported to be a ship from Norfolk in Virginia, belonging to Guernsey, out 26 days, having lost most of her crew since her departure, supposed by the Yellow Fever or some other malignant disorder. The wind coming fair, she came up the harbour and anchored within pistol shot of the town, with a yellow rag at her mizen-top mast, indicative of a diseased ship; and yesterday morning, some boats were sent from his Majesty's ships, which towed her into the middle of the harbour, where she now lies.
