GEORGE NEWKIRK. April 18, 1806.
INTERESTING.
The London Courier contains the following remarks on the capture of Buenos Ayres:
By the ample details contained in the extraordinary Gazette, our readers will see that the capture of La Plata is an achievement as honorable to the British arms as it is likely to prove beneficial to the British interests and commerce. Our whole force did not amount to more than 1700 men, whilst the enemy had the advantage of being in the midst of their resources of being greatly superior in numbers, of having a larger artillery, of being better acquainted with the country, and of being more strongly posted. Their cavalry exceeded our whole force: General Beresford states it at 2000 strong; sir Home Popham estimates it at nearly 4000; they had also about 2000 infantry. From the length of time our vessels were in the river it is not probable that the enemy were taken by surprise. The Rio de la Plata or river of Plate, has a town, St. Philip of Monte Video, on the northern or right bank, much nearer the mouth than Buenos Ayres, which is on the south or left bank. It was decided upon a consultation between sir Home Popham and general Beresford, not to stop for the purpose of attacking Monte Video, but to proceed direct to Buenos Ayres. This was a judicious determination, for Monte Video is a town of infinitely less wealth and importance than the capital, and has not as easy and intimate a communication and connection with the most fertile part of the province. Besides, whilst our arms had been occupied at Monte Video, the inhabitants of Buenos Ayres would have had time either to strengthen their position, or to have removed themselves and their treasure into the interior of the country, which it might have been inadvisable to have pursued them.
About 27 tons of dollars, 1,086,208, or about 300,000 pounds sterling are arrived in the Narcissus frigate which brought the dispatches.
We have thus obtained a footing in South America, and in one of her richest and most extensive provinces, so healthy too as to have occasioned the name of Buenos Ayres, or excellent air, to be given to its capital. The first great blow has now been struck at the Spanish power in that vast empire, and whilst we have fixed ourselves in one province, Miranda is, in all probability, spreading the flame of insurrection in another. Long before we knew of this expedition against South America, we had pointed out the immense advantages of making an attempt upon the Spanish possessions, and before we read sir Home Popham's letter, in which he truly says, that the capture of Buenos Ayres, "exhibits to the commerce of Great Britain peculiar advantages, as well as to the active industry of her manufacturing towns," we had said (see the Courier of 25th ult.) that "with the sources of the precious metals in our hands, we could control commerce in peace nearly as much as we do by our navy in time
of war. With the monopoly of the trade of the richest, most extensive, and naturally strongest colonies in the world, our commerce and manufactures would rise with a new vigor. From Spanish America we should derive new sources of wealth to counterbalance our new burthens, and the conquest of it would more firmly establish us as a colonial and maritime power, than any other step we could take, or any other event that could happen."
What influence will this important acquisition have upon the question of peace or war? This is a point upon which we feel the deepest anxiety, having heard the language of the ministers, that "they are not likely to be drawn from the path of moderation, even if the course of events should favor their efforts;" language from which it has been inferred that any favorable events during the negotiation will not induce them to advance in their terms. If that be a just inference, we shall think them in the highest degree reprehensible. Bonaparte, (a negotiation pending) makes encroachments, which enable him to improve and increase his terms; shall we then not take advantage of any amelioration in our situation? The end of war is to make an honorable and advantageous peace. Let us use then every event of the war which has been glorious in the highest degree to us, to obtain a better peace. If the ministers do not avail themselves of a victory growing out of an expedition fitted out by Mr. Pitt, to demand more beneficial terms from Bonaparte, they will not have acted honestly to their country. Bonaparte dreads our getting a footing in Spanish America—he knows what it would be in the hands of a nation so different in character from the Spaniards, so active, vigorous, enterprising, and commercial as the English. We know that any consideration, short of a most important concession on the continent should not induce us to abandon the possession of La Plata, communicating as it does with the rich province of Chili, and opening such new and ample channels to our commerce and manufactures. Will he give back the Tyrol and Venice to Austria? No These we shall be told by men "of moderate councils," are too much to expect. Why then if he will not consent to important concessions in Europe, why should we make them in America, or in any other quarter of the globe? He has more need of peace with us than we have with him. If he will keep what he has in Europe, let us do the same in South America. Let us keep La Plata, and extend ourselves in that rich part of the globe. The conquest is easy, the benefits immense. But if we must make peace, let it be made with the keeping of this fine province we have just taken. Peace! Peace!—The cry of these men of "moderate councils" is always peace—they then open upon us the copious sluices of one eternal, sweeping and smothering argument, that we can do nothing by continuing the war; to which we reply, what can we do by making peace?—They will never see but one side of the argument, the miseries and mischiefs of war—they never cast a look at the miseries and mischiefs of peace made under the existing circumstances of the world. We see Prussia arming. If Bonaparte persists in his demands she must go to war. That idea alone ought to make us pause; for if war takes place upon the continent, our assistance, which we cannot give if we make peace, must be of immense advantage to the continental powers.—Let us not so hastily adopt this dispiriting belief that Bonaparte must always be successful; he can only go the length of his chain; for a chain invisible and all powerful as that which guides the comet in its course holds this terrible man; this comet of the human race, who shakes from his fiery train war, pestilence and famine. But if, as the ministerialists tell us, he will not drive Prussia into a war, he must then desist in his demands upon her. This will prove that he will yield to Prussia, let us try to make him yield to Great Britain. Let us, in consequence of our new successes, advance in our terms; for no man surely will contend that peace ought to be made upon the same terms now as we might have acceded to, had not Buenos Ayres been in our possession.

Late and Important FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE.
LONDON, September 30.
On the 14th of September the camp of Meudon broke up, and all the troops in the vicinity of Paris, including the Imperial Guards, commenced their march for the Frontiers of Prussia.
The Emperor was to leave Paris on or about the 25th to put himself at the head of his armies.
It was the prevailing opinion at Paris, on the 25th September, and at Nantes on the 1st of October, that there would be no peace with England; and that the whole of Europe would immediately be again involved in a war.
It was whispered, in confidential circles at Paris, that Bonaparte had determined to compliment the Queen of Etruria, with the Kingdom of Portugal.
On the 14th of Sept. Jerome Bonaparte, with much pomp and parade, and amidst the shouts of a Parisian mob, was created a Prince of the Empire.
An article, dated Berlin, Aug. 30, says, It is rumoured that all our differences with England are on the point of being terminated.
Intelligence from St. Petersburg introduces the expected speedy departure of several armed vessels and frigates for Corfu.
The English, it is said, have debarked, between Terrichia and Gasta, about 500 men, all of whom were entirely destroyed.
A decree of divorce has been formally published at Paris, the marriage between Jerome Bonaparte and Miss Patterson, of Baltimore, Report says, that brother Jerome is to be immediately united to a foreign Princess.
The eternal subject of the surrender of Cattaro is put to rest for some time, Austria appears to have satisfied all the forms that were required by France. General Bellegarde, with a considerable force, presented himself before the place, and required to be put in possession of it. The Russians demurred, and threatened to treat him as an enemy if he should attempt a landing.
The Prussian troops having almost all reached their different points of destination, the movements are of course not so frequent as they were a few days ago. —The strength of the Prussian and allied army is concentrated in the following positions:—The Headquarters, where the King nominally, but the Duke of Brunswick really commands, are to be established between Halle and Merseburg—Another corps, is to be stationed in front of Magdeburg; a third in the neighborhood of Göttingen; and a fourth in Westphalia. The three last divisions are to be severally commanded by Prince Hohenlohe, General Mollendorff, and the elector of Hesse. Both the Saxons and Hessians are already incorporated with the Prussians; and, what is of very great importance, it is placed beyond all doubt that a considerable Russian force is rapidly advancing towards Silesia.
The 20th inst. was the time fixed for his Prussian Majesty's departure from Berlin for the army; the Queen, it is said, accompanies him. A report prevailed at Dresden, that he would be met there by the Emperor Alexander.
The Berlin intelligence mentions that Baron Jacobi was to quit that city on a journey; his excellency is coming to London. He was expected to pass through Hamburg on the 20th inst. and his arrival by the next packet may be looked for.
We have received the following letter from a correspondent of the first respectability. We place much reliance upon the accuracy of the details contained in it:
"ALTONA, Sept. 16, 1806.
Great exertions are making to place the army in Saxony on the most formidable footing, and to take the field immediately. The Prussian General Hohenlohe is to command the combined army; but it is supposed that the King of Prussia will have the supreme command, as his head-quarters are to be at Halle.
One hundred thousand Russians are on their march to Warsaw; eighty thousand are at Brody and Belitz. The armies are to be commanded by Generals Michelson and Bennigsen; they are to receive their heavy artillery at Gros Glogau, where the greatest activity prevails in the magazines.
The Russians are to cross the Oder at Brieg, Breslau, and Gros Glogau,
and that part of the army is already arrived on the frontiers of Silesia. The grand duke Constantine, and some say, the Emperor Alexander, is expected at Berlin.
On the 7th inst. part of the Prussian army was arrived in Saxony, by the road of Bautzen. The Prussian third battalions of each regiment have received orders to march, which is not usually done.
The Austrians are forming large magazines at Troppau, Jägerndorf, and in Bohemia.
A large train of artillery has passed through Brunswick, from Magdeburg, to join the Prussian army in Hanover.
The Prussians have taken possession of the principality of Fulda, the only sovereignty left to the Prince of Orange, who arrived at Magdeburg on the 9th.
The Duke of Brunswick is to have the command of the centre of the Prussian army. His own army is to be increased from 2000 to 4000 men.
The elector of Saxony's troops received orders to march on the 9th of September.
At Halle the troops are quartered even in the professors' houses; and the churches are already converted into magazines. Eleven regiments are on their march to Leipzig. The Prussian troops, under the Prince of Hohenlohe, crossed the Elbe, near Dresden, on the 11th instant. These are to be replaced by Russians. The nearest French force is at Bayreuth and Coburg.
Count Schultenburg Kellert is named Governor of Berlin, vice Mollendorff.
We have the very great satisfaction to announce to the public, that Mr. Whitbread has accepted the office of Secretary at War. The manly talents, the persevering activity, the comprehensive mind, and high individual character of that gentleman, have long been established; we cannot, therefore, but congratulate administration on the accession of such an able coadjutor.
Bonaparte and Talleyrand have actually left Paris. The former set off last Wednesday night from St. Cloud with Madame Bonaparte, which we suppose, accompanies him only part of the way. The Moniteur adds, that he is supposed to be gone to Metz. Talleyrand left Paris on Friday to join his master.
Two Hamburg mails arrived this morning—the one due on Sunday at night, and that due last Wednesday.
Hostilities are expected to commence immediately between Prussia & France. The Silesian army, 30,000 strong, under Hohenlohe, crossed the Elbe, on the 11th, near Dresden. Other divisions are passing through Dresden daily. The French are drawing towards Bareuth and Coburg, where the first blow will in all probability be struck.
A Russian army of 30,000 men is entering Silesia.
The Archduke Charles has, by his talents and assiduity, placed the Austrian army on the most respectable footing. All the regiments are complete and the magazines filled. The principal magazines are at Brunn and Budweis.
Cattaro is still in the hands of the Russians, who have refused to deliver it up to the Austrians.
PARIS, Sept. 29.
A great number of baker boys set out the day before yesterday from Paris for the great army, where they are to be employed in baking bread and biscuits.
The camp at Meudon is entirely broken up; all the regiments that composed it together with a part of the garrison of Paris, have begun their march, and taken the route to Strasburgh. A troop of infantry of 1500 men passed Cambray on the 16th, for the Rhine. It is reported in that city, that several other corps are to pass which have the same destination.
HAMBURGH, Sept. 19.
It appears certain that the Russians are rapidly advancing, though care is taken that nothing be officially published about them. It is said to-day that they are already at Stettin, and that the Emperor has occupied Prussia-Proper, with Königsberg itself, as a security that the Prussian Court will, for this time, act in concert. The Prussian coin is declared current in Hanover.
A report is spread here this afternoon, that the French and Prussian advanced posts are within a league of each other.
PORTSMOUTH, Sept. 29.
Sailed, the Ardent of 64 guns, Capt. Donnelly, and the Pheasant and Charwell, sloops, for Plymouth, to take Sir
Samuel Achmuty's brigade to Buenos Ayres. The Nercide and Thistle, which remain under orders for Buenos Ayres, it is supposed will take some of the troops from this port, in a few days.
WEYMAR, Sept. 11.
The whole army of Silesia, commanded by the Prince of Hohenlohe, and consisting of about 30,000 men crossed the Elbe to-day near Dresden. If we may believe general report, 130,000 Russians are entering Silesia as a corps de reserve. Saxony, according to some, will furnish 20,000, and according to others 30,000 men, who will assist in occupying Thuringia.
The French are concentrating themselves in force near Bareuth and Coburg, where, according to all appearance, the first blow will be struck, unless it should be in the environs of Münster.
Our Most Serene Duke yesterday received orders for his departure; he commands in chief a corps of the Prussian army.
BANKS OF THE MAIN, Sept. 13.
All the General Officers and Great Officers of State who were at Paris, were convoked by the Emperor Napoleon on the 8th of this month, at St. Cloud, when it is said that his Majesty held a Council of War, the political situation of Europe requiring measures of precaution.
LONDON, October 1.
Arrest of captain Whitby. —Captain Whitby of the Leander, has returned from the American station, under arrest, in that ship; and a court-martial is immediately ordered upon him, for firing upon the American vessel, which made so much noise. By these means, the truth of those proceedings, which have given so much uneasiness to both countries, will be indubitably determined.
It is said that the duke of Bedford has been recalled from the government of Ireland. His grace was sent at the special desire of Fox; and his recall is another symptom of the declining interest of the Foxites.
PHILADELPHIA, November 24.
By the ship Liberty, captain Chew, arrived at New-York from Liverpool, we have received Liverpool to the 3d, and London papers to the 1st of October, and Paris accounts to the 27th of September. The aspect of Europe at the date of these advices, and they are the latest, was entirely warlike. The Emperor Napoleon, accompanied by the Empress, & attended by the minister Talleyrand (now Prince of Benevento) had left Paris, taking the road for Mentz. The Prussian, Saxon, and Russian armies, were marching to a general rendezvous. The Russian troops amounting to 130,000 men, were marching to Warshau. The French forces were assembling at different points in the frontiers of Germany. No doubt was entertained of immediate hostilities—and although Lord Lauderdale had not returned to London, it was presumed that the object of his mission had ceased, as both the Emperor and the minister of foreign relations, had left Paris.
The British Parliament was prorogued to the 26th of October. An order of the King in Council had been issued to raise the blockade of the Prussian ports—the differences between England and Prussia had been adjusted—and Baron Jacobi, late Prussian minister to the Court of St. James, was daily expected in London.
A large reinforcement of British troops had sailed for Buenos Ayres—of which Gen. Beresford was appointed Governor, with a salary of 10,000 pounds sterling per annum.
The Emperor of Russia is said to have taken possession of Prussia-proper, which was to be held as a pledge for the King's adherence of his engagements with the allies.
The Swedish army, 30,000 strong, were entering Hanover, to co-operate with Prussia.
From a late estimation (says a Liverpool paper) it appears, that the expenses of Lord Nelson's funeral amounted to 14,000l. 11s. 6d. and those of Mr. Pitt, 6045l. 2s. 6d.
When Capt. Goodfellow, (arrived at N. Y.) left Trinidad, Gen. Miranda was momentarily expected there. Shortly after he sailed, was boarded by the Jason frigate, who informed Capt. G. that General Miranda had actually arrived from Aruba, with all his squadron, and that the expedition would be abandoned.
MIRANDA DEFEATED.
Captain Foster, who arrived at Boston
on Saturday the 15th instant, in twenty-five days from Trinidad, informs, that three days previous to his sailing, a Mr. Taylor who had embarked in the expedition with Miranda, reached that place with the unpleasant intelligence of their defeat in landing at the Caraccas. He stated that the troops which Miranda had collected at Trinidad did not amount to more than 400; that with this additional force he had proceeded on his expedition; but immediately on his landing, was attacked and totally defeated; that Miranda lost in the engagement the greater part of his troops; and with much difficulty secured his retreat with the wreck of his little army, in one of the small vessels belonging to his squadron; that the Leander was also captured and capt. Johnson, who commanded her and most of his officers, were beheaded.
Major Gen. Sir John Stuart, who commanded the British troops in their gallant action with the French, in Calabria, is a native of the city of Charleston. He was severely wounded at the battle of the Eutaw Springs, during our revolutionary war, from the effects of which he still suffers very considerable inconvenience. [Cour.]
Sir Home Popham, (says a London paper of Sept. 19) has written letters from Buenos Ayres, to the Mayor and Corporation of Birmingham and other principal towns, in which he points out the importance of this conquest to the trade of Great-Britain: he says the city of Buenos Ayres alone, contains 70,000 inhabitants. The staples of the country are indigo, tobacco, vincenta wood, cotton, tyger and seal skins, figs, dried tongues, beef and hams, saffron, cochineal, cocoa, hemp, hides, tallow, gum, gold, silver and precious stones. Of the articles of hides, there are exported, every year, upwards of 400,000.
MARTINSBURG, December 5.
We have the satisfaction of confirming the information of the Spanish forces having crossed the Sabine. Advices, dated October the 3th, have been received from General Wilkinson, who was then stationed on this side of the Sabine. Previously to leaving Nachitoches he had informed Governor Cordero, that in compliance with his duty, he should be obliged to attack the Spanish troops, unless they retired beyond that river. Not having received a satisfactory answer from the Governor, the American army was advanced about twenty miles beyond Nachitoches, when the Spanish forces crossed the Sabine. Propositions of accommodation, founded on the agreement of the American and Spanish commandants to abstain from occupying a district of country to be designated, were made by Gen. Wilkinson to Gov. Cordero; to which the latter had replied that he did not consider himself authorised to enter into such a convention without instructions from the Governor General of Mexico, to whom he promised to write immediately. From the distance of this province an answer can scarcely be expected in less than a month.
At the time our forces advanced, the militia had joined them, in greater numbers than had been expected, and even beyond the requisitions made; thus affording the most unequivocal demonstration of their fidelity to the United States.
At the latest dates General Wilkinson had dismissed all the militia, except about one hundred and fifty cavalry, which, with the regular troops, were stationed on the Sabine; the Spaniards being stationed on the further bank. [National Intelligencer.]
[Through the politeness of a respectable gentleman in Washington, we are enabled to lay before our readers the following intelligence respecting Col. Burr.]
FROM THE SCOTCH GAZETTE.
CHILOTCHE, Nov. 13.
IMPORTANT COMMUNICATION.
By a gentleman of the highest respectability from Kentucky, we are furnished with the following intelligence:
The United States' district court for the Kentucky district, having commenced their November session, the following is the substance of an affidavit of Joseph Hamilton Davis, Esq. attorney-general for the U. States for the said district, which was made before the Judge of that court, to wit:
"That the said Davis was in possession of the most SATISFACTORY EVIDENCE, that Aaron Burr, Esq. late vice-president of the U.S. had formed an association for making War against

Spain, invading Mexico, and forming a distinct empire in the Western Country; that he was raising forces and purchasing up the necessary provisions, and stores for that purpose.
The said Joseph H. Davies, esq. accordingly moved the court, that the said Aaron Burr, esq. should be arrested and compelled to find security for his appearance, and that a writ should be issued for compelling the attendance of witnesses—and a stop be put to all further proceedings of Aaron Burr!
The judge took time to consider, &c. It was reported that Col. Burr was in Lexington at the time the motion was made, and that he had notice of the transaction three hours after it transpired.
A Glance at the passing events of the times.
In India, the arts and arms of Britain, have completely secured the triumph of its jurisdiction over the principal part of the maritime and wealthy districts of that extensive empire. In prosecuting the late war in that quarter, the British East India company, who, in sharing the plunder and conquest which have resulted from every contest with the natives, have likewise been obliged to share in the immense expenses attending them, are now in a state of great pecuniary embarrassment. While these sacrifices were necessary to secure the future and permanent advantages of their conquests; they have operated favorably to the commerce of this country; not only in its direct trade to the East Indies, but the purchase of Asiatic goods in Europe.
The political affairs of Turkey have lately undergone a change, which promises a longer duration to its government than the events of the two or three years foreboded. The administration of its civil and military concerns, have been arrested from the hands of men who were found to be mere mercenary tools and panders of the French government, and placed under the direction of those, whose talents and love of country have been found superior to personal considerations. Under the government of these men a new impulse is given to the state, which in its operation promises not only the union and support of its native energy; but the alliance and friendship of such powers as feel an interest in its preservation. The control, or subjugation, of this empire, has long been a favorite measure of the French cabinet; and so well concerted have been the plans, by which it was to have been effected, that until a very recent period, the government of the Porte, were not to be convinced of the treachery of a power, whose friendship had been so speciously professed, and so flatteringly continued: the veil is however now rent, and pursuing the wise policy of its present ministers, the Ottoman Porte have adopted the means of securing the friendship of Russia and England, whose joint interests lead them not only to preserve and protect its sovereignty, but to succor and support it against the encroachments of France.
On the continent of Europe, we behold a new and unexpected turn of affairs. It has been generally believed, that the successes of Bonaparte, during the late war in Germany, would put a finishing stroke to any future coalitions, hence the battle of Austerlitz, has been pompously termed in the Paris Moniteur, as the death warrant of any further combination against the mighty power of France; hence the boasting language of every Frenchman, that such was the power and extended dominion of that empire, no future evils could endanger its security, or disturb its repose. We however now see, that its security and repose is likely to be interrupted in a very serious manner. We not only witness that whatever courage is exercised, the brilliancy of French victories are robbed of their lustre; that the prowess of its arms, are checked and controlled by the undisciplined and unorganized peasantry of Italy; but we see, rising, in majestic array, a confederate power, whose strength and magnitude promises a formidable opposition to the pride and ambition of France; a power, whose well concerted plans, are not liable to the errors of the former confederacy; and whose spirit is confidently believed, will not be broken down by any casual or momentary disaster.
A ware of the temper and discipline of the enemy; and learning from experience, the mode of its warfare, the confederate powers will have the means of guarding against every surprise; they will meet their enemies on the open field, where prowess alone shall contend for victory; they will there determine the question whether the French Infantry are superior to any other troops in Eu-
rope. In this coalition, provided Prussia is sincere in her present declarations against France, and every thing which has lately transpired on the continent of Europe corroborates the belief that she is, we may pretty safely calculate, that before the war is ended, the power of France will be confined to its ancient boundary of the Rhine; that Germany will be restored, if not to its former extended sovereignty, at least to a situation more secure, and more consistent with its former dignity; that Holland will regain its sovereignty, and once more become a free and independent commercial republic; that the states of Italy, so long enfeebled by their own luxury and effeminacy; and since their conquest by the French, so cruelly and tyrannically governed, will be formed into one effective and powerful government, whose support and protection beyond the local vigor which may be infused into it, shall be derived from the northern powers generally. This measure should seem to be dictated by the strongest ties of policy and interest, as it will prove an eternal barrier against those schemes of conquest in the East, which Bonaparte has so long cherished; it will also serve to invigorate the bonds of friendship between the coalesced powers; and give that freedom and extension to the whole commerce of Europe, which must on the common scale of human interest, be highly beneficial to them all. It should be asked where is the physical force to secure these triumphs and these blessings? We answer, that the combined force now contemplated in the formation of the new confederacy against France, is stated at a million of soldiers , beyond the ordinary succor which may be expected from a population of 40 millions of people, who have witnessed what sort of freedom the French confer on those they vanquish. This force may be thus arranged: Russia 400,000—Prussia, 300,000—Austria, 200,000—Sweden, 100,000.
Of France, we find an evident embarrassment in its government, arising from the unexpected measures which have taken place among the northern powers. The wily, and generally wary schemes of Talleyrand, appear to have been completely defeated, in the instance of the Russian treaty; and to have thrown the government into a dilemma, from which it is not likely to extricate itself. Even war heretofore so confidently engaged in; and heretofore so successful, appears to have lost its hope, and its influence on the public mind; in this situation of affairs, though Bonaparte, by the natural energies of his own mind, may secure to himself the empire of France (proper)—Talleyrand is likely to be placed in a situation, where, if he cannot find consolation in reflecting on the fate of Cardinal Woolsey, he may possibly be left to contemplate his own fate in the recesses of the modern Bastille, or the wilds of Cayenne.
The state of political affairs in England have experienced no further change than what was to have been expected from the death of Mr. Fox. At our last dates which was on the 19th September, public opinion was decidedly in favor of war, not only from the above circumstance, but from the favorable state in which the coalition of the northern powers then stood. Premiums were opened at the insurance offices, offering 100 guineas to 15, that war would not only be renewed, but that lord Lauderdale would return from Paris before the 22d Sept. The majority of the cabinet is now decidedly in favor of the war. The military system of Mr. Windham has added much strength to the regular forces—its navy is continually augmenting—and preparations constantly going on for the equipment of transports destined for the conveyance of troops to the continent.
[Boston Gazette.] A PRAYER. Delivered at Mill Creek Congregation, on Sunday the 30th, ult. appropriate to the meeting of Congress, and now published by request.
FATHER OF ALL! in every clime, in every place adored! Thy Temple is the universe! our hearts the altar! this the sanctuary in which thy Justice must create an abhorrence for crimes, a love for virtue, and a respect for thy Laws! we do not presume to approach thee, holy Father! on any merit of our own, or aught that we possess, for thou art the giver of every gift to man, and to thee alone belongs all the honor, and all the praise! We acknowledge no God but the Lord! holy in his nature, and undivided
in his properties. From everlasting to everlasting unchangeably the same... A God of mercy and love! infinite in wisdom, unlimited in power!
"Prayer ardent opens Heaven, and lets down streams of glory, on the consecrated hour of man, in audience with the Deity."
"Elias was a man of like passions;" his prayers were heard and his requests granted. We stand, as thou hast decreed, in the middle way, "betwixt the porch and the altar," supplicating for ourselves, and entreating for our fellow-mortals.
Do thou in mercy, O supreme Intelligence! hear our prayers, and grant to us what is proper to receive. Thou hast commanded, that prayers and supplications should be made for all men; especially for those in authority, that under their rule and government we may lead peaceable and godly lives. Thy kingdom is a kingdom of peace, therefore we pray thee, that "thy kingdom may come, thy will be done!"
Bless, Lord! the President and Vice-President of the United States; the Senate and Representatives of the people thereof; be a shield and a sun unto them." Cover their heads with glory, and crown their lives with felicity. Be with them in the midst of their counsels; give unanimity to their deliberations, and decision to their measures. Grant, that they may ALL co-operate with thee in their "labours of love," so that "the kingdoms of this world may become the kingdoms of our Lord," and thou may'st rule in every heart, and be recognized in every land.
Put an end to strife and internal discord; stop the vindictive ire of hostile nations; turn their implements of warfare into implements of husbandry, that like "the brazen serpent in the wilderness" the name of JESUS may be set up, "in the solitary waste as in the city full."
Assuage the miseries of a suffering world, and with pity, every where, behold the sorrows of the People.
Lord! smile on our righteous endeavours, in all our various callings, that "truth and justice, religion and piety, concord and unity," literature and liberty, may prevail and flourish, in our land to the latest posterity.
Pardon our manifold transgressions against thy divine majesty, and prepare us for all events; that as we have great reason to be a happy people, so make us a grateful People; create in us hearts of gratitude for all thy mercies; for our good in creation, our preservation in time, and all the blessings of this life; but above all, for thine inestimable love, in the redemption of a world, as a means of grace, and our hope of glory!
Lord! thou hast promised, and thy promises are sure and certain, that where thy People have congregated themselves together in thy name, thou wilt be in the midst of them, and grant their requests. Fulfil now, O Lord! the desires and petitions of thy servants, as may be most expedient for them; granting us in this world knowledge of thy truth, and in the world to come life everlasting!
The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the same holy and undivided spirit be with us always: Amen!
The astonishing explorations of Mungo Park, & Co. in the East, and those of Lewis, Clarke, & Co. in the West, are striking manifestations of Providence, as selected and preserved instruments, to open "a high way" to uncivilized man, "the gentle" world, that "the glad Tidings of the Gospel" may in due time be promulgated. "United we stand, divided we fall."

TO AUTUMN.
HAIL! sober Autumn, lovely maid, I love thy garb of russet hue; I love to haunt thy leaf strewn glade, When deep impet'd with morning dew.

The Seasons of the Mind.
Enlivening Hope is spring within the mind, Refreshing joys fan the Summer's wind. Scared they appear but Autumn drops its leaf, And Winter reigns, when reigns a gloomy grief.

JOHN ALBURTIS,
Has it in contemplation, if sufficiently patronized, to print an elegant edition of Addresses to Young Men, By JAMES FORTYCE,
And for that purpose submits the following proposals to the consideration of all who feel for the welfare of the present and rising generation, whose happiness these Addresses are so admirably calculated to promote.
TERMS:
The above Addresses shall be printed with an elegant and entirely new type, on good paper, in a duodecimo form, and will contain about 500 pages. They shall be neatly bound and lettered for $1 75—or $1 50 half bound, payable on delivery of the work. They shall be put to press as soon as a sufficient number of subscribers are obtained, and finished without delay:
TO THE PUBLIC.
THE present publisher, as a member of that class of the community, to which this highly valuable work is addressed, recommends it particularly to his young brethren—but every person who feels for the good of his country, and for the welfare of society, he doubts not, will consider it a duty to patronize a work of this kind.
THE dispositions and manners of Young Men may be regarded as of the greatest consequence both to the present and future generations—An intercourse with those of worthy manners and dignified deportment, is evidently, much more efficacious in moulding the minds and directing the actions of others, than the highest authority, or the wisest example, of age. How deeply society will be affected, by the connections which Young Men shall form, and by the conduct which they shall hold, as they advance, it is not difficult to imagine; nor can it be necessary to prove, that, as the behaviour of individuals in their early days gives for the most part a turn to the rest, so from the character of our Youth in general, we may prognosticate favourably, or otherwise, concerning our own times, and those that shall more immediately succeed them.
THE above work, tho' more particularly addressed to, and intended for, the improvement of the minds of Young Men, inculcates principles that would add dignity to age, and be ornamental to the nature of either sex. To persons acquainted with the author and his writings, any recommendation that could be offered, would be superfluous; but to those unacquainted with both, it may be proper to observe, that the work here offered, has stood the test of time and experience, and has been universally extolled by the virtuous of every sect and country where it has been read.
It would be a valuable present from a parent to a child, and for which they may expect remuneration in the rational improvement made in the minds of their progeny.
To complete this work, in a style that will do it justice, will subject the publisher to very considerable expense; but he doubts not but he shall be compensated for his expense and trouble, as every one will acknowledge, that the dissemination of books of this kind are an actual good to the community at large, and will therefore feel disposed to patronize it—for this purpose all who feel inclined to do so are invited to the Office of the Intelligencer, Martinsburg.
FALL and WINTER GOODS.
The subscribers take this method of informing their friends and the public in general, that they are now opening at their Store in Shepherd's Town, (just at the Market-House-Square, and immediately opposite to Mrs. Julianna Eckhart's Tavern.)

Land for sale.
AGREEABLE to the last will and testament of William Henshaw, Esq. dec. will be sold a Farm, (called Springfield) containing about 600 acres of valuable lime-stone land, late the property of said Henshaw, dec. situate in Berkeley County, Virginia; more than 300 of which is cleared and under good fence, the residue well clothed with timber; about 12 acres in meadow, which can be watered, and much more can be made. The improvements are a large and convenient stone dwelling house; stone spring house, with good lime-stone water running through it, within 12 feet of the kitchen door; smoke house; barn; stables; with other necessary buildings for the convenience of a farm.

About half a mile below at a separate dam, are a Saw and Pulling Mill, with a log dwelling house; and two lime-stone springs breaking out of the side of the dam. These mills are built upon that well known creek, for its constancy called Mill-Creek, which runs through the above land. One fourth of a mile above the merchant mill is a double log house, kitchen, barn, &c. and a never failing lime-stone spring within 40 yards of the door. Three other log buildings and a smith shop, suitable for tradesmen.
