NATIONAL AFFAIRS
For the Month of March, 1795.
SPAIN.
The kingdom of Spain, fertile and of great extent, peninsulated from the rest of Europe, and situated at the junction of the Mediterranean and Atlantic oceans...
The discovery of the west, and of a passage by sea around the Cape of Good Hope to the East Indies, presented opportunities of acquiring fortunes otherwise than by the slow process of regular industry.
The modern Greeks, without the least political importance, and sunk in slavery to a military government, retain but little of their original character.
ITALY.
The Italian states exhibit some symptoms of reviviscence—there is a spirit of political investigation in that country.
GERMANY.
Preparations for war are still going on in Germany. The emperor has invited his subjects to make a voluntary loan on terms very advantageous to the subscribers.
POLAND.
Although the good and great king of Poland, if the epithet Great may be applied to high talents and virtues struggling hard
and overpowered at last by adverse fortune, be a prisoner at Grodno, and a Russian general for the present reigning in Warsaw...
THE TURKS,
on the plains of Poland, may raise the standard of resistance to
RUSSIA.
The empress has, from the commencement of the present war, amused the confederates with hopes of assistance.
DANES AND SWEDES.
Undoubtedly freedom established in Poland, would be formidable to the government of Russia—who is not indeed calculated for long duration either by natural causes, or moral institutions.
In the course of the present month, the event that has most powerfully solicited the attention of all the subjects of GREAT-BRITAIN, in whatever part of the world residing, is the discontents of the Roman Catholics...
The Catholics are indignant, animated and united; and give vent to their sentiments in various declarations and resolutions...
Under this circumstance of alarms added to so many other causes of pub-
lic regret and apprehension, Mr. Fox moves in parliament an enquiry into the state of the nation. Three years of defeat, disaster, and disgrace, have proved, either that the system on which ministers have acted has been bad, or that their own conduct has been weak.
It is a pity that statesmen so seldom anticipate the progress of opinion, and to adopt their regulations more than they do to future occasions.
For the Gazette of the United States.
To Citizen Bache Editor of the Aurora. CITIZEN,
YOUR correspondent who calls upon me to pass an eulogium on the British House of Lords, and in particular, on Lords Thurlow and Mansfield...
As to Mr. Hastings, in whose justification I am desired to plead, I know but very little about him, and, besides, I should suppose there has been already pleading enough in his favour...
Your correspondent has, with more democratic zeal than good manners, accused me of abuse, misrepresentation, fallhood, and defamation.
By way of set-off for the millions of murders committed by the French Jacobins, your correspondent has affirmed that citizen Gerald was really transported to Botany Bay by the British government...
this must always be the case. And besides though the evil opposition should always descend to the children's children, yet they may want the talents, citizen Bache, of their malignant ancestors, and then they become a sort of buffoons, more ridiculous than mischievous.
That knave who works with, call'd a fool. Your correspondent, citizen in his own way, speaks of the Editor of another Gazette under the appellation of the Watch of Endor...
I observe that this correspondent does not sign his name; but he must not think he is not known: his signature is not wanted to discover the author.
I am surprised no one has persuaded him to leave off; his very best friends are ashamed of the insupportable nonsense he has poured upon the public...
I am &c.

The Ratification of the Treaty of Amity, Commerce, and Navigation between the United States and his Britannic Majesty, (by the Senate) must be a source of pleasing sensations, and a cause of mutual congratulation, to all sincere lovers of their country.
The seeds of dissention, which had been so plentifully sown, are now removed, and instead of irritations, feuds, and animosities, there appears a prospect of harmony, conciliation, and good will. Their mutual differences, objects of perpetual recrimination, are now placed in a train of amicable adjustment.
The Western Posts are to be ceded in a short period; and all the waters, lakes, and rivers, of the interior country, are for the purposes of commerce, freely to be navigated by both parties. This will open an unbounded field for commercial enterprise, in the intercourse with the Spaniards and the pursuit of the fur trade.
The demands for debts withheld from the British Creditors, by the interposition of legal impediments, which bar their recovery, and the Claims of the American Merchants, for Captures and Spoilations, are to be arranged by an appeal to an impartial Tribunal, constituted of Commissioners to be mutually appointed by both parties.
The East-India Trade, which will afford such a valuable employment for our large Commercial Capitals, is placed on the most favored footing, by having a free admission into the Ports of all the British Territories, on the same terms, (with respect to exports and imports) as are enjoyed by British vessels.
The operation of the article which concedes the intercourse with the British West India Islands, under certain restrictions, is suspended until a friendly negotiation can be entered into, which will correct an error, which it appears has inadvertently been introduced.
There are some of the most prominent features of the Treaty—it appears that the Senate determined that no publication thereof should be made until the ratifications were mutually exchanged.
It must be highly gratifying to the friends of the French Nation, to be informed, that no article of this Treaty stands in the smallest degree with the obligations and engagements contracted with that gallant nation.—Every cause of offence as collision seems to have been studiously avoided in the progress of the negotiation.
Settlements may, however, be made in the vicinity of those Posts immediately. The north-eastern boundary of the United States, on which is the river St. Croix referred to in the Treaty of Peace, is also to be determined by Commissioners.
From the Aurora.
The following are the Members of Senate who voted against the Ratification of the Treaty with Britain:
 Langdon, from New-Hampshire  Robinson, Vermont  Burr, New-York  Brown, Kentucky  Mason, Virginia  Tazewell, Virginia  Bloodworth, North Carolina  Martin, North Carolina  Butler, South Carolina  Jackson, Georgia 
The following States were consequently divided on the question:
 New-Hampshire,  Vermont,  New-York,  Kentucky,  South-Carolina, and  Georgia. 
The following States voted unanimously in its favour:
 Massachusetts, Population 475,327  Rhode Island, 68,825  Connecticut, 237,946  New Jersey, 184,139  Pennsylvania, 434,373  Delaware, 59,004  Maryland, 319,728 
Total of population for Treaty, 1,779,442
The following States voted unanimously against the ratification:
 North-Carolina, Population 391,751  Virginia, 747,610 
Total of population against the Treaty, 1,141,361
Upon this it is obvious that the remote representatives of a majority only of the people have by adopting secrecy in their proceedings, passed an act more binding than the constitution, and more influential than any law. Such is the effect of the glorious system of checks and balances.
We hear, the Ratification of the Treaty with Great-Britain has had so violent an effect upon a certain Priester of this city as to have turned his brains—we are in hopes they are now right.
Translated for the Gazette of the United States.
Extra from the Gazette Francaise of New-York.
The news we receive from the Windward Islands, presents a continued picture of revolts and massacres, burnings and devastations between the two nations, who appear to have sworn mutual destruction by which to signalize their envy, and the fury of their animosity.
Every day, every hour we behold new ravages and horrible reprisals, at which humanity weeps.
Victor Hugues has most mercilessly put to death all the unhappy victims, which the force of arms, the winds, storms or perjury has thrown into his power.
The accounts from the Windward are shocking.—By a letter which I have seen S. Lucia, Grenada, St. Vincent and Mariguante afford the same spectacle as the North part of St. Domingo—in all, the ministers of Hugues have spread robbery, flames and blood. Of the three brothers Dugard-Turgis, one has been guillotined, the second was drowned in attempting to save him, the third has fled, but his wife has been guillotined. M. Devasse Belmont, a rich inhabitant of La Soufriere, denounced by one of his negroes, poisoned himself. Two respectable women, Madame Laporte and Levacher, have been whipped by their own servants.
The last vessel from Guadalupe announced, that Victor Hugues was recalled—it is time that the mercy of the nation should at length deliver the Antilles from greater scourges than all those which formerly ravaged this unfortunate globe.
EPIGRAM—from Martial.
Since you so much resemble one another In your bad lives and ways, what makes this other this other? She the worst wife, the worst of husbands she, I wonder why the plague they can't agree!

DUBLIN, May 4. The remains of the Rev. Mr. Jackson were taken from the Court of King's Bench on Friday morning about ten o'clock, and carried in a plain oak coffin covered with a black pall, by four hired bearers, to a concern belonging to an undertaker in May lane. Another coffin full mounted was prepared against yesterday, in which the body was placed and in the evening interred in St. Michael's. A party of the military attended the funeral, from an apprehension that some outrage would have been attempted—a precaution however, perfectly unnecessary.

CATHOLIC BILL.
The second reading of this very important bill was moved for at five o'clock yesterday evening—and the debate ended at eleven this morning. It is easy to perceive that of this debate at this hour it is impossible to give any thing more than a paragraph. We shall therefore for the present only observe that the debate was opened by the Solicitor General, who moved that the bill be rejected, and spoke for a very long time against the principle of it. He was followed by Lord Kingsborough, who seconded the motion and spoke strongly against the bill.
On the same side were—
 Messrs. Coote Ogle Counf. Johnson,  Pelham Mason Counf. Fox  Wolfe Sir John Parnell Dr. Duignan  Col. Blaquiére Mr. Barrington and fir E. Newenham Counf. Barrington  Mr. Latouche Messrs. Cuffe Bon. R. Sewart 
In support of the bill were—
 Sir H. Langrishe Counf. Smith Counf. Hoare Mr. Fitzgerald (not the prime Serj.) Mr. Knox, Mr. C. Hutchinson,  Mr. Egan, Mr. Curran, Mr. Ruxton,  Mr. O'Connor, Mr. G. Ponsonby, Sir L. Parsons, Mr. Osborne, Counf. Fletcher, Sir T. Osborne, Mr. Grattan,  Mr. Tighe, Jun. and Col. Doyle. 
Of these Gentlemen, Mr. O'Connor distinguished himself by one of the boldest, and indeed the ablest speeches we ever remember to have heard in Parliament.
Counf. Smith displayed in support of the justice and expediency of the bill the most argumentative and persuasive speech which perhaps had ever been advanced in support of a political question.
For bold and manly sentiments Sir T. Osborne stood very prominent—but
if ever arguments could convince an Assembly of representatives in times like these, the irrefragable argument adduced by Mr. Ponsonby and Mr. Grattan towards the close of the debate, would have insured success to the measure which is now lost for the present. Both of these gentlemen replied to the arguments which had been advanced against the bill, by the many who had spoken during this debate of unexampled length—and yet, though after a patient attention of sixteen hours in a crowded House of Commons, one might have expected some diminution of fire and strength, the fact is that on no former occasion, do we ever remember to have heard, either of these gentlemen make a more striking exertion of argumentative or oratorical powers.
At near ELEVEN the question on the rejection of the bill was put and carried by a majority of 71—there being against the rejection 84 for it 155.
Thus have the hopes of Union amongst Irishmen been for the present frustrated. Yet, there is surely no reason to despair of ultimate success; Reason ably urged, will ultimately give success to any measure, and never had any measure greater reason and ability to second it than are ranged now on the Catholic side.
LEXINGTON, May 26.
By a gentleman arrived here a few days since, we are informed, that about ten days since, a party, consisting of eighty, coming through the Wilderness, was fired on by some Indians, within a few miles of Waldron's Station by which four of them was instantly killed.
By the same informant we learn, that in his way through the Wilderness, he passed several large parties destined for this State.
On Thursday morning, the 4th inst. Mr. Massey with a party of about fifty men, who were out on Paint Creek, a branch of the Sciota, fell in with an Indian camp, in which were upwards of thirty Indians, fifteen of whom were warriors and the remainder women and children. An action commenced, in which one of the white men was killed—the Indians were drove from their camp, and their baggage and horses fell into the hands of the whites. The party then made for Kentucky, and on Friday morning about day break, one of the centres fired on the Indians, who were endeavouring to take advantage of their situation, upon which the Indians returned the fire, when a sharp action ensued for a few minutes, and the Indians retired before it was light enough for the whites to pursue. During this attack one white man was wounded in the thigh, and two horses killed. The plunder and horses taken from the Indians sold for about £150.
A lad that was taken prisoner at the mouth of Sciota in February last was with the Indians, and escaped to the whites during the action on Thursday morning—he informs that this party of Indians had received a letter from General Wayne, ordering them to leave that neighbourhood, and come to the treaty, which they positively refused to comply with—they are of the Shawanese tribe.

NORFOLK, June 20.
On Thursday evening arrived, in town in the sloop Greenwich, Capt. Edmunds, from Newport, Rhode-Island, a gentleman passenger, in the brig Betsey, from Bourdeaux. By him we learn that the brig Betsey Capt. Belfy, and the brig Molly Capt. Meillard, failed from Bourdeaux about the 3d of May, both loaded with wine, and bound to Philadelphia: that on Monday last, the 15th inst. being 45 miles E. by N. off Cape Henlopen, and in 28 fathom water, was captured by the pilot boat Schooner Thetis, (formerly the York pilot boat) capt. Hutchings, mounting 6 guns, and sent off to Bermuda. Shortly afterwards they spoke the sloop Greenwich bound in here, on board of whom they put the above gentleman.
The brig Betsey is owned by Mr. W. Penrose, of Philadelphia.
WINCHESTER, June 22.
Copy of a letter from Major Doyle, commanding at Fort Massac, to General Robertson.
"FORT MASSAC, May 22."
"Sir,
"I have scarce time to inform you, of a very unfortunate circumstance that had happened on the 20th ult: to a certain Mr. Chew, who had lately left New Madrid, with an intention to become an inhabitant of the South Western Territory. He left this garrison in the morning—in the evening, I was informed by a boat from Port Vincennes, of a pirogue being on shore, with a number of bark canoes round it.—I ordered a command to the spot instantly, to recover every visible property, and to bring the body of Mr. Chew to the garrison, which was effected without delay. His body was barbarously mangled—several of his negroes were found killed near the place, and one white man.—He passed this garrison with eleven negroes and four white men. The bearer
will inform you the little time he allowed me to write to you.
"Your obedient servant,
EDWARD DOYLE.
"Brigadier-General Robertson.
Merci Delict."
P. S. The person mentioned in the above letter was Col. Samuel T. Chew, of Maryland. He was killed upon the south bank of the Ohio, between the mouths of the rivers Tenesse and Comberland.
Letter from the Earl of CARLISLE in reply the Letters of Earl FITZWILLIAM.
IN consequence of Earl Fitzwilliam having addressed his correspondence to Lord Carlisle on Irish affairs, his Lordship has thought proper to publish a letter expressing his dissent from the sentiments of his Noble Friend, and vindicating the conduct of Mr. Pitt, the Duke of Portland, &c. The following is the concluding passage:
ON the great question of the additional indulgences at this time to be extended to the Roman Catholics, I shall say but little. The sentiments of an individual would, in this place, obtrude themselves very clumsily. I shall hope to be believed, when I assert that I have toleration not only upon my lips, but in my heart; and that, in my experience, I never witnessed anything in the Roman Catholic Church of Ireland that gave me a moment's doubt of their loyalty and attachment to their Sovereign. That an unfortunate difference, on the subject of more indulgence to be granted at this moment, has been raised between you and the Cabinet of England, we all know, and all deplore, but you are much mistaken, if you think that the world, endeavouring with very inadequate means to detect on which side the error or misapprehension lies, even supposing it should be suspected to be with you, has ever aimed any censure at your head, which made it necessary for you to appear at the tribunal of the public, as open a defence, in my mind unprovoked by accusation from any quarter, forcing you to advance, upon such tender and delicate ground, to points generally not considered accessible, unless where an attack upon life is meditated, or, what I feel is dearer to you, fame and honour.
You allude to a part of my letter, where, joining in the general anxiety as to the precipitancy with which your great measures seemed to be brought forth, I confessed that I could not contemplate the innovation without terror. Always being taught to consider the Roman Catholic question as of great moment, it was not extraordinary that the quickness with which you decided upon it (I mean not to arraign that prompt decision) should have occasioned a strong shock or alarm to me, however incompetent to direct an accurate view to its near or its remote consequence.
Under every circumstance of disagreement in opinion, of a nature less reasonably interesting the attention of the political world, violent surmises will be formed on both sides, which candour and moderation would lose their labour in attempting to reconcile. Doctor Barrow says, every fast has two handles, one which is ever, ill-nature, and harshness are ever inclined to lay hold of; the other constantly presents itself to calmness, moderation, and gentleness. I shall address myself to the latter, not the former, in order to gather and submit to the judgment, which I conceive candid and honourable men have formed upon these unfortunate transactions.
In many parts of your letter, if I mistake not, it may be collected, that owing to the circumstances of the times, the pressure of business produced by the war, and the necessity of pointing all thoughts, as well as all exertion, towards the defence of the empire, it was a general wish to postpone the consideration of the merits of the Roman Catholic question to a moment better fitted for a less interrupted investigation of it. Of course, excepting otherwise driven by necessity, we should have seen you acting at least in unison with the views of the English Cabinet, had you terminated the Session of Parliament, with this point still reserved for future consideration. You, for the reasons which you have assigned, conceive that necessity to be so apparent and so strong, as to leave you, in policy and prudence, no choice or remedy. Upon this point the whole matter seems to hinge. The public, turning towards the English Administration for explanation, discover them questioning that necessity which you consider as irresistible. Great stress is laid upon the impossibility of utterly preventing this discussion, from some quarter or another, being forced upon the Houses of Parliament. That some one eager in the cause, would infallibly stir it, though Mr. Grattan had held back, was clearly to be foreseen. But as, in that case, the argument for suspending might have been adopted by those who were inclined to fall into the views of both the Lord Lieutenant and the English Minister, it did not seem to follow that, on such ground, a person so in name and reputation, and so closely connected with the Castle, was impelled to seize that hour for giving notice of his bill, sustained by Government and its adherents.
Still keeping clear of an impertinent obstruction of my sentiments upon the great question itself, I only take an hypothesis, that the King's ministers did not, in their judgment, yield to that necessity, which you state as sufficiently powerful with you, to determine you no longer to restrain yourself to those limits, within which it appears, at least for the time, it was the wish of your political connections that you should have confined yourself. And from this, we guess, has arisen that fatal misunderstanding which has deprived Ireland of
so much honour and integrity, the King of a faithful servant, has loosened the bonds of the closest friendship, has carried the poison of distrust and resentment into houses never before at variance, and conveyed a heavy charge indeed to the doors of his Majesty's ministers.
May I, my dear friend, in this place, be permitted to say, that, weighing every part of this subject in the most dispassionate and impartial manner I am able, I never heard the sound of accusation of your conduct in any quarter, perceived no attack aimed against your character, no stain endeavoured to be fixed upon your reputation, no abandonment of private friendship or affection, no wretched symptom of that refused dissimulation which you fancy you have detected. In short, nothing that wore the shape of accusation or charge, which brought you to the painful alternative of repelling or submitting to.
Under the strong feeling of a repugnance (which I am confident you will comprehend and excise) to lend myself with a silence, that might argue willing-ness to become the channel of censure to individuals who had acted serviceably and honourably by me; to others, whose conduct I have had opportunity of watching, and still retain my opinion of their unshaken friendship and attachment to you; lastly, to others, on whom I could not assist at heaping such disgrace, without holding them out, at the same time, as utterly unfit for the high stations they fill; I have been obliged thus tediously to trespass on your patience, an apology for which can only be looked for and found in that friendship I before alluded to, and which has, for so many years past, taught us indulgence to each other.
Ever Yours, &c.

Scheme of the LOTTERY, No. II, For the Improvement of The FEDERAL CITY.
Table with 2 columns: Prize Amount, Number of Prizes. Includes prizes of 20,000 Dollars, 15,000 Dollars, 10,000 Dollars, 5,000 Dollars, 1,000 Dollars, 500 Dollars, 100 Dollars, 50 Dollars, 25 Dollars, 10 Dollars, 5 Dollars.
This Lottery will afford an elegant specimen of the private buildings to be erected in the City of Washington. Two beautiful designs are already selected for the entire fronts on two of the public squares; from these drawings, it is proposed to erect two centre and four corner buildings, as soon as possible after this Lottery is sold, and to convey them when complete, to the fortunate adventurers, in the manner described in the scheme for the Hotel Lottery.
The drawing will commence as soon as the Tickets are sold off. The money prizes will be payable in thirty days after it is finished, and any prizes for which fortunate numbers are not produced within twelve months after the drawing is closed are to be considered as given towards the fund for the University, it being determined to settle the whole business in a year from the ending of the drawing and to take up the bonds given as security.
The real securities given for the payment of the Prizes, are held by the President and two Directors of the Bank of Columbia, and are valued at more than half the amount of the Lottery. The twenty-four gentlemen who by appointment of the late Commissioners assisted in the management of the Hotel Lottery are requested to undertake this arduous task a second time on behalf of the public; a sufficient number of these having kindly accepted, it is hoped that the friends to a National University and the other federal objects may continue to favor the design.
A complete PLAN of the whole of this important Institution, compiled from a selection of the best materials, ancient and modern, will be submitted to the public whenever the same may have gone through such revisions as may be necessary to establish the perfect confidence and general approbation, so essential to its present rise and future existence for the general good of America.
By accounts received from the different parts of the Continent as well as from Europe, where the tickets have been sent for sale, the public are assured that the drawing will speedily commence, and that the care and caution unavoidably necessary to insure a safe disposal of the tickets, has rendered the most suspension indispensable. February 24, 1795.

THE best Eulogium on this Valuable Work is the reception it has met with from the Public, before the present very important improvements were added. Between twenty and thirty large editions of it have been sold. Being now adapted to the climate and diseases of the United States, it is hoped the work will be found more extensively useful, at the same time the price is lower than the London edition in its unimproved state can be sold for.

One Hundred Dollars Reward.
RUNAWAY from the Powder Magazine in Baltimore, of which he had the charge, a certain Thomas Roach, a native of Limerick, in Ireland; about 5 feet 8 inches in height, his person thin and slender, short black hair mixed with grey, dark countenance, with very black beard and eye-brows, & speaks much with a brogue; 43 years of age. The said Roach had under his charge, amongst other casks of powder, above 100 belonging to the United States, which he has taken off with him very lately, either in a boat or waggon. Whoever apprehends this villain, shall have the above reward—and if any person can give any account of the powder so stolen, he shall be generously satisfied, by JOHN O'DONNELL, President of the Fire Insurance Company.
As this robbery concerns the public at large it is hoped the PRINTERS throughout the United States will be good enough to give a place.
