These machines are made on a simple and improved plan for copying, writing, &c. of any size, in an expeditious manner, and are charged at a much less price than any other now in use. They are found to possess a superiority over any others, both by being more durable and not so liable to get out of repair, and by copying any number of writings at one time, without making any alteration in the machine, and their occupying little room. The very general use into which these machines are now brought in use in London and other large trading cities, and the satisfaction testified by all who possess them, render it unnecessary to enlarge any further on their advantage, both in point of accuracy and secrecy and in the saving of time, labour and expense.

Foreign Intelligence.
BOSTON, October 30.
The Evelina, capt. Jones, arrived here yesterday from Hamburg. Through the politeness of a gentleman who came passenger, we were furnished with papers of that city to the 13th of Sept. from which we have obtained the annexed translations:
HAMBURGH, Sept. 12.
This day arrived several dispatches from Vienna, with intelligence, that the recent proposals for peace, made by the French to the German Empire, were not accepted, and that hostilities would immediately recommence.
VIENNA, Sept. 6.
The continuance of war is certain; the proposals of the French, for peace, being as extravagant, as humiliating to our Court. The Emperor will himself depart for the army this day and likewise the Arch-Duke Charles, from Pray to join the army of which he will be invested with the command of the troops, and who is adored by them.
Gen Bellegrade will take the command of the army in Italy, in lieu of Melas. England has undertaken to assist in the most forcible manner in the war.
Every exertion is made to reinforce our armies in Italy and Germany, and in case of necessity, the Hungarians are to rise in mass.
Letters from Constantinople of Aug. 10, state, that Menou, the successor of Kléber, had also been assassinated; he was not beloved by the troops, being opposed to the evacuation of Egypt.
AMSTERDAM, Sept. 9.
The conclusion of a Peace is very dubious, on account of the proposals made by the French to the Imperial Court, which we think cannot be accepted, viz.
 1st. The Emperor is to keep what was granted him by the peace of Campo Formio; Mantua, however to be dismantled.  2d. Salzburgh, Berchtesgaden and Passau should be given up to the Emperor.  3d. The Emperor should not interfere in the affairs of Sardinia, Rome and Naples.  4th. The countries from the right bank of the Danube, and the left of the Iller, up to the source of the Danube, to make part of the Helvetic republic, in future.  5th. Germany to adopt a new and entire Constitution.  6th. The Ecclesiastical States to be re-formed.  These proposals were rejected by the House of Austria; and hopes of peace have disappeared.
VERONA, August 27.
The Austrians work with the greatest assiduity in fortifying Mantua. The garrison is to be supplied with provisions for several years, and every means employed to render it unconquerable. The fame is to be done with the citadel of Ferrara.
BERNE, Sept. 2.
By virtue of an order from the Directory, one man, from every 100 native citizens, is to be levied, completely equipped, at their expense; and ready for the field, at the end of October.
HELSINGUER, Sept. 9.
The day before yesterday, Adm. Dexpou, with a fleet of good merchantmen, departed from hence. He sailed Cronenburg with 17 guns. It is said he is to proceed on another expedition, in conjunction with a fleet, which had been seen in the Sound.
To be Sold
THAT Handsome and healthy COUNTRY SEAT, called LAUREL LODGE, the late residence of Thomas Rutter, Esq. situate in Potts Grove, Montgomery County, thirty-six miles from Philadelphia, containing about 260 acres, twenty of which are prime woodland, fifteen excellent watered meadow, the residue divided in arable lots. On the premises are a large handsome Brick House and adjoining buildings, containing two parlours, a large dining room, and a Hall, twelve feet wide, by forty long, a large kitchen, with a pump of excellent water in it, six handsome chambers, two store-rooms, four garret chambers plastered and a grain room over the adjoining building, a double spring house, with a smoke house over the same, within fifty yards of the kitchen. The spring, in the driest season never known to lower in the least, and from which the meadow is watered; a garden containing about one acre, stocked with the most delicious fruits, such as peaches, plums, cherries, pears, raspberries, &c. several asparagus beds in great perfection. Also, a young bearing apple tree orchard, containing several hundred trees, the fruit selected from different parts of the United States, a large convenient barn with a threshing floor, with commodious stabling for horses and cows, carriage and houses, grain room, &c. Also, a large frame poultry-house and corncrib, &c. Also, a tenant's house, garden and stable, and a pump of excellent water belonging to the same.
The situation of Potts Grove is remarkably healthy, regularly supplied with Butcher's meat and poultry in abundance, to be purchased at a low rate, and the Schuylkill affords a plentiful supply of excellent fish. Two grist mills in the rear of the town. Perhaps fewer country towns in Pennsylvania, are more rapidly improving, or have more local advantages than Potts Grove. The several pieces of public worship, the salubrity of the air, genteel society, and cheapness of living, are among the few advantages it possesses.
Any person wishing to view the premises, will please to apply to Mr. Wm. POTTS, in Pottsgrove, and for terms to the subscriber, in Philadelphia.

PHILADELPHIA,
WEDNESDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 5.
To Readers and Correspondents.
"AN AMERICAN" is a sensible and perspicuous writer, we will to-morrow, give currency to his opinions.
"Civis" shall appear.
Literary articles wait for their turn. The arrangements of a paper, are like the etiquette of a Barbers' shop. "First come, first serv'd, Sir."
THE Federalists of the City of Philadelphia, are requested to meet at Dunwoody's Tavern, this evening, at six o'clock on business of importance. Nov. 5, 1800.
From the multitude of hints and threats and allusions thrown out in the Aurora respecting our state senate, it is easily seen that the Jacobins are extremely restless on the subject of appointing electors of President. Their doctrine is not less laughable than absurd; for they think the majority of the senate ought to yield their opinions and principles to the minority, because, both houses taken collectively, there would be a great majority of Jeffersonians—This logic won't do—the senate, as a distinct and independent branch of the government, has a right and it is their duty to insist at every hazard, upon an equal share and authority in the making of laws, and they would be guilty of treachery to their constituents, should they suffer themselves to be cajoled out of their proportion of the legislative power, which would result from their consenting to a joint vote for the choice of electors. It is to be hoped that a mutual spirit of accommodation may take place on the subject, and that a liberal and rational allowance will be made for what is now looked upon as the minority in this state. But if an headstrong, infolent and overbearing policy should discover itself on this occasion, on the part of the Democrats; I hope and trust in God, that there will yet be found in the senate of our state a bulwark against such a lawless invasion of their constitutional rights and privileges. They will not be deserted for doing their duty.
This is the all-important day, for the meeting of the Assembly. The senate is understood to have a majority of two on the Federal side—But the Jacobins pretend that on the great question of choosing electors; two or three of the senators will desert their colors. The names of Messrs. McClellan, Johnson and Potts are particularized in the Aurora, as fit candidates for political apostasy; these gentlemen are no doubt much indebted to the Aurora-man for the opinion he entertains of their honor and integrity, and there can be no doubt but their conduct will confirm the good opinion of every friend to consistency—except Billy Duane.
The Legislature of this state, in pursuance of the Governor's proclamation, was to convene at Lancaster this day.
It is mentioned in a Boston paper, that Judge Lincoln is elected member of Congress for the fourth western district.
Gen. Sumpter is re-elected a member of Congress for the state of South Carolina, by a large majority.
Captain James Barron, is appointed to command the United States ship Warrenton.
Congress, by their act passed and approved the first day of March, 1792, did enact, that Electors shall be appointed in each state, for the election of a President and Vice-President of the United States of America, within 34 days preceding the first Wednesday in December, 1792, and within 34 days preceding the 1st Wednesday in December, in every fourth year of succeeding the last election: And, that the said Electors shall meet, and give their votes, on the said first Wednesday in December, at such place in each state as shall be directed by the Legislature thereof.
Jacobinic Logic. —President Adams and Gen. Hamilton have fallen out.—Ergo—the electors must vote in favor of the friends of Mr. Jefferson!—Excellent Logicians.—"Reader, didst thou ever catch a gull?" (Col. Cent.)
James Jones, Esq. and Benjamin Talliaferro, Esq. are elected Representatives to Congress from the state of Georgia.
The President of the United States, arrived at Washington on Friday evening last, by the way of Lancaster and York.

From a Lancaster Paper.
COUNTERFEIT DOLLARS.
The public are cautioned against receiving Counterfeit Dollars, a great number being in circulation in the borough and vicinity of Lancaster. We are told that upwards of twenty were offered at the Treasury in the course of last week. The few of these counterfeits that we have seen, are intended to imitate the emission of 1798. They are merely plated copper, roughly executed, and the D in DEI nearly touches the forehead on the dexter side.
In his paper of the 28th of October, the Editor of the Aurora has stated himself to have been prosecuted, for publishing the letter written by Mr. Adams to Tench Coxe.
This is believed to be a direct and positive untruth. If the Editor would rescue himself from the imputation, of attempting in this, as in other instances, to deceive the people, by assertions known to himself to be untrue, he will publish an extract from the indictment, and mention the court in which it was filed.
[Wash. Fed.]
Letters from Peterburg inserted in the Hamburg papers, mention a very singular report, which they consider, however, as authentic. By a late ukase of the Emperor Paul, it is ordered that an abridgment should be published of the French Campaigns all over Europe, but more particularly of those in Italy for the last ten years. His Imperial Majesty further observes, that this work should be studied as an elementary one for military education; and that no person can be admitted to the rank of a subaltern, who has not learnt it by heart.
Baltimore, Nov. 3.
The electors of the Mayor and of the Members of the second branch of the City Council, met this day agreeable to the charter of incorporation, and unanimously re-elected James Calhoun, Esq. Mayor, for the ensuing two years; and elected Henry Srouffer, Nicholas Rogers, John Merryman, William McCree, Robert Gilmore, William Copeland Goldsmith, Edward Johnson and Jacob Smith, Esqrs. Members of the second branch of the City Council.

DEMOCRACY.
"What is Democracy?" This question has found its way into the TRAITOR'S GAZETTE, Edited by TENCH COXE & Co. of all others the disciples of that Doctrine should carefully avoid urging a reply to this query. Democracy is a Colossus, striding over our unhappy country and with Hellish malignity marking out the victims of its vengeance. View it in Pennsylvania and you find in its mad career expelling from Office of Trust and Profit virtuous men, who have been long and faithful servants to their Country; and for what? For daring to exercise the rights of freemen in opposing the election of a TYRANT. By whom are they superceded? by Traitors and Thieves! What is Democracy? an impious fiend, setting at defiance the laws of God and man and trampling down, with sacrilegious joy, the barrier of religion; 'tis a monster, which has initiated its disciples in the humane art, of teaching an unoffending wife and family "how to starve" such a slight sketch of Democracy, drawn by a feeble hand were the pen of a master to portray it in all its deformity, 'twere blacker than Hell.
GAUTION.
Against a new and dangerous animal now at large:-
THIS country is now infested by an animal in which are marvelously combined under the form and figure of a man, the cowardice of a sheep, the ferocity of a wolf, the low cunning of a fox, the treachery of a cat, the poison of a viper, and the subtleties of a monkey. It is a train-train, though strange that this wonderful production of necromancy and witchcraft walks upon two legs, carries the "erectus vultus" has been taught to read and write, and performed, in addition to the usual functions of a man, every mischievous, wicked and destructive art. By some he is supposed to be the genuine workmanship of the Devil, who, mortified at the creation of man by the Almighty hand, has thus endeavoured to imitate and mock the work. He has succeeded tolerably well in sketching the form of human kind, but when he came to animate the mass, he was under the necessity of breathing his own spirit into it, instead of the divine inspiration. This detested creature has for years, been roaming about destroying every social and honorable principle; inviting confidence by the most forced and flattering attentions and betraying it without remorse. He is utterly incapable either of a steady and honorable friendship or enmity, being directed entirely by a shifting, selfish expediency, by a depraved and low bred policy and by his predominant love of mischief. He flatters or betrays without any regard to the object or the ties which hold him to it. He is of shallow wit, but an everlasting talker, forcing every man he meets into unpleasant and reluctant conversations, which he afterwards moulds into such shapes and sentiments as best suit his interests and malice. There is less safety in his company than under the fangs of a tiger. The peace of a man and his family may be broken up by a single word perverted and distorted in the mind of this friend. It is expected, that all the good people of this country, will carefully avoid this new monster, and if by chance they fall in his way, let them put a seal upon their lips, and be as fearful of opening their mouths as if a deadly poison were floating in the air and would be inhaled at a breath. This animal is now at or near Lancaster, vomiting forth volumes of poison and falsehood in long and tedious publications. He raves a great deal about his dear country, his love for her, and the sacrifice he has made and is making for her; but all this stuff is unintelligible as it is quite uncertain to what country he belongs, he has been seen in the service of so many and faithful to none. Having destroyed his friends one by one, he seems now to be devouring himself, and it is hoped that in a short time we shall be rid of him. But until then—
GOOD PEOPLE BEWARE.
FIDES.
"Ipse suum cor edens, hominum vestigia vitans."
Extract of a letter from St. Kitts, September 2, 1800.
A flag of truce which I sent with 50 French prisoners, in order to lessen the number here, and relieve any Americans at Curacao, has returned without any and I have the pleasure in saying one were there, and that by the vigilance of our cruisers no vessels had been carried in for many weeks.
Two Americans who have been detained in close confinement at Port de la Liberte, and treated in a most cruel manner, still remain there. I have made frequent applications for their release but without success. Those unfortunate men are detained for bravely retaking their vessel from the crew of a French Privateer, and in the act killing two of the fellows. A few days afterwards they were taken again, since which they have been most rigorously dealt with.
As it is the determination of the agents neither to release them, nor to mitigate their treatment; I have with the advice and direction of Capt. Shaw, detained a captain of a letter of marque, and a general of the disbanded troops, who were on their passage to France, until the arrival of Commodore Truxton. The President, on the 23d. sent in a valuable re-captured British letter of marque, and the Enterprise yesterday morning, two Americans with valuable cargoes, and was left in charge of a third, supposed to be a privateer of 78 guns, which had captured them. I momentarily expect the pleasure of seeing her coming in.
THE subscribers to the City Dancing Assembly are informed, that the first Assembly will be held at the City Tavern on Thursday Evening next.
November 3.
The following prologue, written by a respectable citizen of Washington, was spoken at the opening of the Theatre in that city, with peculiar pathos, by Mr. Wignell.
THANK Heaven! ten tedious anxious years are past, And here we've all together met at last— The Grecian States, ambitious to destroy, Took the same time to level cloud-capt Troy: Their Hero, by subverting, fought his prairie, Our patriot's bier glory was to raise. Let other nations look to Greece and Rome, Columbia's bright examples are at home: What'er is great or good we find in one, All virtues joined to form a Washington. Heaven partial seemed occasions to dispense, Pleased to unfold his great pre-eminence.— Exulting thought! Why then appear distress'd? But ah! you feel the most who knew him best— Mourn not, but thank him that his life was spared So long; enjoy the blessings he prepared— As planetary systems roll on high, Roll'd by th' Almighty's law of harmony; These States in ceaseless unity shall roll, Sway'd by the plans of his inspired foul.
"To-night we'll make you weep by mimic play For tears are tributes which delight must pay. Expand your tuckers, ye high swelling fair, Unturl your lacs, your handkerchiefs prepare: Catch the soft moments, ye enamoured beaux, Arrest the tear drops, trembli'g as it flows: Sweet sensibility the foul endears, And beauty sheds a lustre most in tears."
This grand hotel, for epicures design'd, Now makes provision only for the mind; For you, each night, two courses nice we cater, And for our wants the prompter call, not water. A bad exchange, you'll say, solids for air; Who's he that whispers "it is city fare." Sir, you're a poet, and delight for such, Rather to deal in fiction than in truth. Those ruddy cheeks evince the air is fine, And those fat sides shew on the best you dine.
"Well saith—we've formed a tolerable stage, There's room for comic glee or tragic rage. But there [pointing to pit and boxes] the city populates so quick, I fear you've flow'd yourselves away too thick. Ladies, you smile as if the crowding pleasd, Sure your fine frames must tremble to be squeez'd."
Tho' now our corps rather too thin appear, This central spot must draw forth volunteers; If power's their wish, to monarchies we'll raise them; If fame, 'twere ample fare for you to praise them; If death and glory, here they may be slain, And what is better, "rise to fight again." Their country's service to a generous mind, That first incentive, true they cannot find; And yet we ask no despicable part, Who glisten life and mediorate the heart. The roads of late which drown'd you many a horse, Have caut'd us to a much severer loss; Our groves, our temples gone beyond repair, The corn hath swept our canvas almost bare. For this deficiency we'll soon atone, Would you could build as fast with brick and stone.
At first behold us with indulgent eye, And soon with zeal we'd every want supply— Thus too the city all things will acquire, That fancy can suggest, or heart desire; The bayonet, the sword, the cannon's roar, Drive arts and licence to this peaceful shore If various tongues from building could disable, Your houses would of course be stopp'd like Babel; Dutch, Irish, Germans, French, all hither flee To enjoy the happy fruits of harmony. With your permission—[well rings] hark! I'm call'd away. That bell cuts short the best I had to say; Accept the will, I pray you for the deed; For this on all occasions we must plead, By your indulgence only we succeed, }
* Alluding to casualties occasioned by over-flowing of the creeks, and damage sustained by stage scenery.

Convicts Escaped.
About 4 o'clock on Sunday afternoon, a daring attempt was made by the convicts in the State Prison of New-York, to effect an escape; their plan was conceived with ingenuity, and conducted with a promptitude and boldness that surprised the caution, and rendered ineffectual the resistance of the keepers. It originated with the shoemakers in the fourth wing, who first having seized the assistant keeper, and Noah Gardner, who had charge of them, broke the bars across the chimney; and after ascending a certain height, knocked the bricks through, and thus made an opening into one of the front rooms on the second floor—this room being appropriated we understand, to one or two of the keepers as a lodging chamber, was unguarded, and opened a passage to the whole building. The first thing they did was to cut the bell rope, to prevent any alarm being given: having taken this necessary precaution, they descended the stairs, and rushed suddenly in a body on the keepers, disarmed them, and seized their keys; thus possessed of certain means of escape, they next provided themselves with the means of defence, by securing the arms they could come at. Meantime captain Pray, the keeper of the prison, apprized of the circumstance ran in and attempted to seize some of the villains, but was himself instantly struck down, stabbed twice, and severely bruised. They left him and proceeded to the front gates seized the keeper of it, and wrested from him the key—they opened the gate liberally, sallied into the road, and had the impudence even to tonizza as they proceeded to the shore. Having found a boat ready for their purpose, they rowed to the opposite side of the north river, and landed a little above the Houboken ferry house. It appears on examination they took with them 8 loaded muskets, and that they are 15 in number—their names are as follows:
James Runnels, James Stanford, John Sullivan, Charles Molier, William Bedford, John H. By, James Crispin, John Smith, Richard Shapley, Alpheus Vincent, David Reed, William Murdock, John Bradley, Lewis Taylor, John Page,
By accounts from the Jerseys since they landed, some country people attempted to apprehend them, but finding them armed, were obliged to desist. The prisoners said they intended to keep in a body—they were seen to proceed towards Bergen.
Two of the keepers of the prison were dispatched to Jersey, in order to alarm the people there; they gained the Jersey shore in about 5 minutes after the prisoners landed; Sheriff Morris, with four civil officers, went over to the Jerseys with the same intention, and landed in about half an hour after the prisoners. The Clerk of the prison was dispatched to give the alarm at Newark and Elizabeth Town, it is hoped these immediate exertions, will be the means of apprehending them, as the intention of the prisoners, keeping in a body will soon discover their route.
The wounds received by capt. Pray by a knife are slight; his shoulder is considerably bruised by blows with an iron bar.
It is worthy of remark, that Dr. Reynolds and Thomas Cooper, were in New-York at the time the above transaction took place, and for a few days previous.
