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 expence.

To TENCH COXE, Esquire.
SIR,
A PERSON who has known you almost from your cradle, now, from a sense of duty to the public, sits down to write a sketch of your political life for twenty-five years past.
I remember you well in the year 1775, a violent whig; in your conversation somewhat intemperate, and an officer in our army (the militia being at that time the army of the country).
The British army in their next campaign set off upon an expedition which promised more success in destroying the existence of our republic: You embarked and landed with it at the Head of Elk, and marched in triumph over the field of battle at Brandywine (trampling under your feet the blood of your countrymen) to Philadelphia, and entered that city at the head of Lord Cornwallis's division, amidst the exulting huzzas for King George.
The foregoing is a fair and temperate sketch of your life and conduct since 1775; it contains the truth, and is generally known in Philadelphia to be so.
The pamphlet or book I allude to—your late letter—and this narrative of your adventures, must be viewed as strong proofs of what depraved man, destitute of principle and clothed with unblushing impudence, can do.
is to see you taking the lead in accusing John Adams of monarchism, who was at the time you deserted, (and when your services were wanted along with our old fellow soldiers and comrades, who fought and bled that winter at the battles of Trenton and Princeton, and during the whole time you were shuffling and cutting all those ciphers at the foul-trying day of our troubles, when your country was bleeding at every pore) found at the post of danger, risking every thing near and dear to him in defence of our republic.
You appear, (take the Picture as portrayed by yourself), to have been one of the distinguished, firm and persevering Heroes that achieved our Revolution, and established our Government, by artfully passing over without much notice the charges publicly exhibited against you, and boastfully swelling out the list of your appointments.
For about twelve years past your character and conduct have been objects of public discussion, first by one party afterwards by the other: in the various animadversions which I have seen, I have a long time observed that they have precisely coincided in defining the great motives of your conduct, and that altho' they have written, what you term abuse, yet in the opinion of all I ever conversed with, of whatever party, I have always heard it agreed that they have both written the truth.

SAMUEL DEXTER, Secretary of War. AN APPRENTICE WANTED, At the Office of the Gazette of the United States.
THE LATEST Foreign Intelligence.
BRUSSELS, September 31. From the banks of the Rhine, we learn, that the troops cantoned between the Lahn and the Nidda, began to be in motion to approach the Mein. It appears that the military operations on that point, will commence with the sieges of Philippsburg, Wurtzbourg, and Aschaffenburg.
BREST, Aug. 27. On board Le Terrible. We are placing the fleet on a most respectable footing. All the vessels which are in the port are being armed, and they will be very soon in the road. We have had advice, that the English propose to make themselves masters here, and to attack Brest; but we have made such formidable preparations for defence, that if they should be bold enough to attempt a coup de main, we shall give them a very warm reception.
Our vessels are drawn up in two lines—Eight three deckers form a part of the first, and present an impregnable battery. One thousand pieces of cannon are mounted upon the points on which the English can make any attempt. The Enemy's armament is always in view. Their object is said to be to sacrifice some of their vessels, and to burn or sink ours. However, the road of Brest will not be the road of Aboukir. The entrance is defended by batteries, and vessels cannot enter more than two abreast. The brave Beinaudore has his head quarters at Lenderneau. We are on the best terms with our friends the Spaniards; they are much attached to us, and the chiefs of the two nations sympathize together with a cordiality that does both much credit.
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 inventor's feelings, in several parts of the West-Indies, and the southern parts of the United States—particularly in Baltimore, Petersburg, Richmond, Norfolk, Edenton, Wilmington, Charleston, Savannah, &c. The testimony of a number 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.
They are excellently adapted to carry off surfeit, pernicious 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, tickleness 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 attendant on long voyages, and should be procured and carefully preferred for use by every seaman. DR.
