TO PITTACHUS.
SIR, AS you have kept forward with so much candor and moderation, to illustrate the character of the President; as you have so amply convinced not only myself but many others, how black is the heart of our Chief Magistrate, how ambitious his views, and how determinedly wicked his motives and intentions; it would be but justice in me, to yield you that tribute of applause which is so justly your due. Depend on it, Sir, not only the present age, but the pen of the future historian shall honour his pages with a delineation of your excellencies. Your patriotic intentions are visible from your condescending to write in a newspaper, to save a falling empire. Such are your virtues, as you have fully proved by a noble independence in affecting them yourself, that we begin to consider you as a rising star in the political sky; and doubtless, Sir, you have done the same yourself. But, Sir, you have not half done your duty. Fear not the censures of the wise and good. There are more knaves and fools in the United States than you are aware of. Abettors and supporters will flock in from all quarters. We have every thing to hope from the horrid phrensy of your disposition, and those gentle demons of confusion, that hover round your soul, assist your enterprises, and direct the flaming pen of venomous cunning. Counseled by these pure spirits, we may say, like Satan to Sin and Death,
If your joint powers prevail, th' affairs of Hell No detriment need fear. Go, and be strong.
You have not half, Sir, performed the functions of that office, with which the court of Pandemonium has entrusted you. The follies and vices of the President are far more numerous than you imagine. His military and civil life have ever appeared to me to be one course of ambitious wickedness. Don't you think there is something in him of the tyger-kind, or the jackals? I don't see any such traces myself, but the vidual ray of my public eye is not yet purged with that euphrasy and rue, so necessary to a statesman like yourself. I doubt not but by the Lincolian system, or some other, you can prove it to general satisfaction. Then prove that he has endeavored to bribe Congress to prevent him a Crown. Next prove, that tho' he possesses an honorable fortune, yet he receives a large annual income from England, for services done to that kingdom. Next assert that he has hired some physicians to communicate to the people a contagious and deadly disorder for the sake of destroying the Jacobins; and after our minds are a little warmed, I doubt not you can prove it in your next letter. If you have seen any of his wisdom in the field, say nothing about it. If you have seen any political integrity in his character, say nothing about it. If he be a man of morals, say nothing about it. If of a cool, calm, deliberate judgment; if an head pregnant with watchful cares for the welfare of his country, and an heart with universal benevolence, are conspicuous in him, say nothing about it. If every wise and good man in the world reveres his virtues and abilities, say nothing about it. And, finally, if for all these things you should be brought to judgment, and some patriotic jack tar should so far degrade himself as to kick your backsliders, say nothing about it.
I am, Sir, With sentiments of contempt and indignation,
MYSELF.
From the New York Daily Advertiser.
To OLIVER WOLCOTT, Esq.
Secretary of the Treasury of the United States.
SIR, THE incorrigible obstinacy with which you continue to justify your conduct relative to the charges of the 'Calm Observer,' obliges me (greatly against my inclination) to vindicate the propriety of those charges, and place your mal-practices in a firmer light.
As to existing appropriations, and constitutional laws, they are mere farces, made to impose on our ignorance, and empty our pockets.
You, Sir, stand accused of having granted the sum of more than 1000 dollars to the President of the United States before it became actually his due.
A proper sense of your duty, and an honest regard to the public good, ought to have suggested to you the enormity of such an unfeeling act. Methinks I behold this very moment the President of the United States, with unbecoming dignity, requesting a thousand dollars in advance; and you, Sir, (anticipating his wants) putaniously complying.
Was this an act of your virtue, or a proof of your patriotism? Mean spirit! Had the Calm Observer been in your place, he would have bid him go borrow and be damned.
October 31. LAMBKIN.
From the New-York Minerva.
Among the remarkable circumstances that distinguish the revolution in France, are the great changes in opinion which have taken place in rapid succession. The French have always had the character of a volatile people; more gushing for brilliant imagination, than for solid judgment. The revolution has afforded ample confirmation of the justness of this character.
In the career of their first victories, and in the warmth of their enthusiasm for liberty, they embraced a project of fraternizing with all republics, and waging an eternal war, with all kings, which they held to be synonymous with tyranny. They declared in convention, they would never make peace with a Monarch.
Their measures corresponded with these declarations. They seemed to overlook the inconsistency of their proceedings with their own principles. The very ground on which they opposed the combination of powers against their nation, and on which all impartial nations will justify them, was self-defence and the right of self-government. In
waging war with all monarchical governments, they espoused the same principle as the combined powers; they directly attacked the right of self-government in other nations. This conduct of the French even justified the combined powers; for what kind of government is best for a particular nation, is to be determined solely by that nation; and on this principle, the French had no more right to attempt to give England and Spain a Republican form of government, than England and Spain had to attempt to continue the monarchy of France.
But the opinions of the French are wonderfully changed, as well as those of the Combined powers. The kings who united against France are convinced that force will never compel the French to change their opinions; and their right to attempt this project, was never contended for with even a show of reason. The French on their part have laid aside their cruades against tyrants, and formed a treaty with two of the most absolute monarchs in Europe. Instead of French men fraternizing with none but republicans, we see them in a league of friendship with Sardinia and Prussia, and even with the Ottoman Porte, the most arbitrary prince on earth. Nay, we see them accept the mediation of the Spanish monarch in favor of the Italian States, one of which is the Pope. Strange changes these!
But the French, while they disavow their ridiculous ideas of dethroning all tyrants, will not lay aside the principle of interfering in the domestic concerns of other nations. They cannot divest themselves of their habits of intrigue. Under the monarchy, the French education was directed to this point—to teach the art of dissembling their own thoughts and of discovering those of others. This art, instead of being banished by the revolution, has received new strength and cultivation. It never was practised so well and to so good effect. Indeed the intriguing disposition of the French, is become infinitely more dangerous than formerly; as it is furnished with a most imposing influence and most effectual weapon, in disguising its insidious views under a mask of liberty and patriotism—a disguise which Richelieu and Mazarine could not use under kings.
Under this specious garb, they have effected a revolution in the free and peaceful city of Geneva, which in fact ruined thousands of its best citizens, and has placed that seat of science and liberty under the control of French politics. It is a mere satellite of France. Holland is in a worse situation. That country has got rid of some feudal evils, but in return she is a mere colony of France: garrisoned by French troops—drained of her money and her arms and military apparatus—her commerce stagnant—and faction and civil war in her bosom. So totally paralyzed are all the active powers of the Dutch, that it is believed by many, the sea will regain possession of great part of her ancient dominion in that country.
In the United States, French intrigue has been active; its success has been great; but its views have been much thwarted, and they are not yet brought to a final result. A deep laid plan of subjecting this country to the influence of France was formed two or three years ago; and some recent transactions will warrant a belief that a conspiracy against the constitution of our country has existed, which, must astonish and alarm every honest man in America. The united and active exertions of the democratic clubs to defeat the effect of the late Treaty—to bring an odium on the President—and to augment opposition to his measures—the falsehoods circulated with industry respecting the merits of the Treaty and the pretended corruption of its advocates—the riotous proceedings in many parts of the union, at the instigation of the clubs—all announce the views, the determination, and the malignity of the conspirators.
It is a serious fact, that things are ripening to a crisis, in the United States; and my Countrymen, it is yet a question, whether we are to be governed by our own constitution and the virtuous Washington; or by Democratic Clubs.
Beware of petitions now circulating against the Treaty. They are a part of a deep-laid conspiracy against our government and liberty. Reject those petitions, for by supporting them you may sign the death warrant of your Constitution and Independence.
From the (S. C.) Columbian Herald.
Messrs. Printers,
Since your daily paper has appeared, many of your subscribers have expressed themselves much pleased with your address to the public, and with the principles whereby you profess to be regulated in the management of the Columbian Herald—By such a line of conduct, you will prove yourselves the friends of your country, and make your paper truly instrumental in promoting its welfare.
Never relax in your zeal for the rights of your countrymen; distrust as much as possible the great principles which form the basis and strength of our independent republic; but discard with care those calumnies which must unavoidably unhinge all order and government.
A tendency to anarchy and confusion necessarily results from every republican government, and perhaps that tendency is strengthened in proportion as the people are free. The checks to it are derived from the virtue, the wisdom, and the natural good sense of the people; but, if any means are successfully employed to blind the people, to corrupt them, and to cloud and obscure their judgment by their passions, those salutary checks are destroyed and liberty soon degenerates into wild licentiousness.
To disseminate the proceedings of government is an essential duty of the press; but it is not a duty quite as essential to the public happiness that they should be fairly and impartially disseminated? the people never fail to act right, when rightly informed; but they sometimes act wrong, from misinformation; misrepresentation, therefore, when wilful, is a species of treason against the people.
All governments, I allow, are subject to error; sometimes they err from depravity of men too, from a mistaken view of the subject in which they so err, even with good intentions. On these occasions, the vigilant checks of the press are indispensable to the
public safety; the Editors ought to have the eyes of Argus to watch over our interests, and they should be faithful continuers to sound the alarm; but this power and duty ought not to be abused or prostituted on every occasion to the ambitious purposes of discontent and faction; if these arts of danger are made too common, they will, like the accustomed cry of Wolf! lose their effect; they should be reserved for cases of real danger. Have your hundred eyes therefore always about you, and stand always at your post; but do not frighten and terrify your fellow citizens with the cry of enemy, at every wind that blows and every leaf that rustles; do not allow yourselves to be made the Cat's paw by every madman who sees danger where none exists, or every incendiary who wants to throw the country into a flame, that he may pick up some thing in the confusion. A blind or implicit confidence in government is unbecoming the dignity of a Free American; but every wise and judicious American must be sensible that a rational and liberal confidence in the constituted authorities, is not only proper, but absolutely necessary in a republic.—Every well intentioned editor, must then feel it his duty, at the same time that he denounces all attacks on our rights, to justify those acts of public administration which have been obviously and wickedly traduced and perverted to the support of unprincipled factions. In allowing full weight to the doctrine, that every transaction of government should be scanned with an Eagle's eye, he should attend to the marked distinction between those charges which are predicated upon existing facts and undeniable proceedings, and are fairly calculated to exhibit both sides of a question; and those illiberal ones, which, having assumed facts and created chimeras, to be found only in the disordered minds of their authors, draw mischievous inferences, tending to alarm and to convulse the public mind. Some have endeavoured to justify those virulent aspersions on the measures of government, by saying, that it puts the people on their guard, and that they should know what is said on both sides of the question; but it is not true that it is showing both sides of the question. To do this the writers ought to state fairly the facts and their reason from them; but they reason and argue from things which never existed; they fabricate falsehoods and then draw conclusions from them; and thus under the pretence of showing both sides of the question, they deceive, mislead, and inflame the people.
In the interior parts of the country where the sources of information are more confined, publications of that kind, not being contradicted, have the most insidious effect on society; they sour the citizens against their government and laws, and keep alive a perpetual discontent and ill humour against measures which they would approve were they understood and seen in their true colours.—To lessen these evils by the propagation of political truth will be an important effect of your paper, for which you will receive the grateful thanks of every Real Friend of his Country.
From the MARYLAND JOURNAL.
Messrs. Printers,
IN the course of a few weeks I have been so fortunate as to meet with several general and regimental reviews, betwixt Boston and this place;—and it is with a pleasure and pride peculiar to a lover of his native country, that I have seen and felt with gratitude, the respectable and formidable state of our militia in most of our large towns in the Union. The review here yesterday, surpasses any thing of the kind I have ever seen, excepting in the haste; and I hope it will not be considered as detracting from their laudable and exemplary conduct, to say, they alone have been exceeded at the reviews under Col. Tracy in Connecticut—Persevere, my fellow-citizens, in perfecting this necessary defence and protection of our country; it is the most sovereign safeguard to our peace, and the only terrible defence to protect us from foreign or domestic war. Let it become a necessary attribute of a good citizen, that he be a soldier; and we have nothing to fear at home, or any thing to dread from abroad.
From an English paper.
The only literary champion for the prince of Wales, who has yet made his appearance, in the shape of a pamphlet, is the author of a letter addressed to Mr. Grey, M. P. placing the present subject of parliamentary discussion in a striking and constitutional point of view. This ingenious author has very aptly drawn the prince as the British Timon, with some masterly allusions to his former friends.
We shall only here insert a short extract, where he finely characterises the four great speakers of the house of Commons, Messrs. Pitt, Fox, Dundas, and Sheridan, and likewise Mr. Grey—recommending to our numerous readers the perusal of the pamphlet itself for their further information—
"With nothing of the all-powerful Pitt's restless stream of eloquence, which like the Mississippi, bears down, with increasing force, every thing that would oppose its overpowering rapidity! with nothing of Dundas's equal tide of eloquence, which like the most loved of all the ocean's sons that flows by St. Stephen's walls, is
"Tho' deep, yet clear, though gentle, yet not dull;
"Strong, without rage, without o'er flowing full!"
With not one drop of the declamatory torrent of Fox, that like the deep and rapid falls of Niagara, overwhelms every unsuspicious bark that is drawn too near its vortex! with not one spark of the eloquent dramatist intemperance of Sheridan, that like the classic cascade of Tivoli, fascinates all beholders with its sublime bursts, and its beautiful meanders, leading us into the most romantic by-rinths!
"You, Sir, (meaning Mr. Grey) have out of the foam of their eloquence to be all, but only some of the little gurgling noise that is heard in the flood. But should some of your friends flow

you, that yours resembles a cascade, it can only be like the artificial one at Vauxhall, formed of Carolina ore , that certainly makes a very great noise and very strong impression on many of the learned spectators, who view it with the eye of admiration and ture ."
LAUNCH OF THE VILLE-DE-PARIS.
Chatham, July 17.
During the whole of this morning, and a great part of yesterday , a crowd of people continued pouring into this place, to see the finest ship ever built in England, or perhaps in the world, launched into the bosom of the water. At noon, the dock yard was quite full. Several booths were erected close to the ship, and parallel to her sides, for the reception of the Nobility, Gentry, &c. The neighbouring hills of Brompton, Chatham, Upnor, and Frindsbury, were covered with spectators, who could not find room in the dock-yard. Several hundred pleasure boats were on the river.
At a few minutes past one o'clock, the shams and posts were cut away, and the ship moved slowly and majestically into her proper element. The regimental bands of music on board, immediately struck up, "God save the King," and "Rule Britannia," in which they were heartily joined by the multitude, who rent the air with their shouts and acclamations.
In the evening, a splendid ball was given in honour of the launch, at the Assembly Rooms in Rochester. We do not hear that any accident has happened, which, considering the number of persons who came to view the grand spectacle, is a very fortunate circumstance. The builders say they never had a better launch.
DUBLIN, August 15.
A very embarrassing circumstance has, we hear, within these few days occurred at the Custom house respecting the seizure of one of the American vessels lately arrived here with wine, &c. from Bordeaux. As it was generally understood that the cargoes of these ships were not only the property of his Majesty's subjects in this kingdom, but were remittances in kind, the only one that they had an opportunity of obtaining for sums of money due from the hostile nation antecedent to the commencement of the war, a seizure and a consequent sale were gone through, pro forma , to enable the owners to get their goods; a seizing officer, has, however, thought proper to raise a sum of money for the purpose of bidding the proprietors of the last cargo that has arrived, and by this means fully availed himself of his prize. A litigation is threatened, which will probably bring the matter into the Court of Exchequer next term, and give some employment to the Gentlemen of the long robe.
Tuesday, Mr. James Werner, of Irlstown, passing through Essex-street, slipped on a bean pod, of which a number remained all day on the flag, and unfortunately broke one of his thighs. It is strange that so dangerous a nuisance is suffered in every part of the metropolis.
At Bridge-watcr Affizes, Mr. Justice Grose sat at the Nisi Prius bar, where a cause came on which much attracted the attention of a crowded court. A person of Somerton, of the name of Hurd, was Plaintiff, and G. Donethorpe, Esq. a justice of that place, and a Constable were Defendants. It appeared in evidence that the Plaintiff's wife and another woman had been applied to by one Jane Board, to go to Well's Affizes to give evidence on behalf of Charles Board, a prisoner there; that half a guinea was given by Jane Board, to defray the expenses of the Plaintiff's wife and the other witness; that the Plaintiff's wife was applied to by Charles Board, to account for the half guinea, which she refused doing, alleging that she and the other witness had been out two days and a night, and that half a guinea was not too much. Board thereupon procured a warrant of the Justice; and on the appearance of the parties, the Justice (after making up accounts between them) ordered Plaintiff's wife to re-fund 2s. 6d. which she refused doing, the Justice thereupon said she should pay 4s. but on her refusal ordered her Clerk to make out a Mittimus, for he would send her to Goal; before the mittimus was completed, the justice said he would not commit her, but said she should be whipped; ordered the Constable to take her into custody, get a cat, tie the knots in it, strip her, and whip her three times round the market cross; adding, that if he did not properly draw blood, he should himself be committed—the constable promised faithfully to execute this decree, and took away his prisoner for the purpose; after being detained about an hour, the husband commuted the sentence by paying one half crown to the complainant, and another to Mr. Mogg, the Justice's Clerk, who produced at the trial, on the part of the Defendant, a warrant, to which he reluctantly admitted he himself had subscribed the Justice's name.—Verdict for 20l.
NEW-YORK, October 31.
Foreign papers mention that the king of Prussia insists, in treating with France for the Emperor, on the restoration of the country between the Rhine and the Meuse. The French intend to preserve these enclaves, and make the Rhine the boundary between Germany and France.
Dumourier has written a pamphlet on the state of France, dated last March. This work abounds with lively remarks, expressed in the rapid manner of that hero, and the fulfilment of many of his predictions already, is no small evidence of profound judgment. In one particular, it is yet doubtful, whether his opinion is well founded—He maintains with confidence, that the revolution, or rather continual revolutions in France, will end in the re-establishment of monarchy. He says, the character and temper of the French will not admit a republican government to be durable in their country.—That Dumourier is a great General, all parties admit; whether he is a profound statesman is more problematical.
It appears that the first accounts of the Convention's continuing themselves in office, were inaccurate—They have only determined that one third of the members shall go out of office, and be re-eligible—the other two thirds continue to hold their seats until the new constitution has been accepted.
and has gone into operation. Baudin, the reporter of the decree for this purpose, alleges, as the reason of this provision, the danger of another revolution, if they suffer the people to elect the new constitution.
ABSTRACT OF FOREIGN NEWS.
Admiral Duncan's squadron in the German sea, has taken two French armed brigs, the Suffisante of 14 guns, and the Victorieuse of 14 twelve pounders.
All the absent officers of the 93d, 105th, and 117th regiments, on the Irish establishment, have been ordered to join their regiments immediately.
New disturbances have taken place near Lyons, in favour of royalty, said to be instigated by the priests.
Between the royalists and fanatics on the one hand, and the jacobins who call for blood, on the other, the conventional representatives in the departments have full business in suppressing insurrections, that spring up in every quarter. Almost every day some new report is read in the convention, congratulating them on the suppression of some riot, and new discoveries from the tribune perpetually hail new victories over priests, nobles, royalists, fanatics, and jacobin blood-drinkers. Certainly all France must pant for the end of these enormities.
Antoine Gouan, professor of Botany at Montpellier, has laid before the Convention a successful plan for preserving corn from insects on shipboard. His mode is, to place aromatic herbs, as little centuary, wormwood, thyme, mint, savory, &c. at the corners and bottoms of the calks and boxes. It does not appear that the French had crossed the Rhine on the 16th Aug.
On the 27th of July, the Austrians were repulsed with great loss at Loano in Italy, which has enabled General Kellerman to commence offensive operations.
The Fall of Monarchy, the 10th of August, was celebrated by the French armies with great solemnity, and a triple discharge of cannon.
Lord Spencer died lately at Berlin. The Representatives of Holland have ordered all the Emigrants to quit that province within 3 weeks.
The government of Amsterdam have discharged three hundred refractory persons from the Dock-yards.
The Emperor has acceded to the proposal of exchanging Maria Theresa, daughter of Louis XVI. for the French Representatives.
Riots and disturbances of an alarming nature, have taken place between the Patriots and the Orange party in Holland; and 25,000 French troops are requisite to keep the peace. The French have given Holland a blessed specimen of Liberty!
WALPOLE, (N. H.) Oct. 20
The lovers of good government in New-Hampshire, are pleased that the insurgents of Boston and Portsmouth are again at Peace. If we should credit the insinuations of some of the party papers of the union, the inevitable conclusion would be, that the whole system of our government is wrong, and that the most lawless innovation is right. But who are those who exclaim "to your tents, O Israel" and labor incessantly to pluck down, what the master-builders, have erected? If from what is termed the democratic faction we deduct all the rope-makers, which Austin keeps in pay—the mercenary scribblers of Bache and Adams—bankrupt shop-keepers, who wish to navigate privateers against the naval interest of England—disappointed candidates for Congress—Debtors to Great Britain, who wish that war may foreclose the creditor—And lastly, desperadoes of all descriptions, Jews and Gentiles, "Cretes and Arabians," who have nothing to lose hope to gain by prostrating property and the laws; if we deduct this enumeration, a dreary nought remains. Had wit or wisdom been our occupations in the course of a controversy, eagerly started, and hotly urged some semblance of truth and reason, in their theories would appear. But the declaimers against our system have not, like Milton's Devil, made the "worse appear the better cause;" They have substituted pertness for wit, and affectation for argument: Valerius scolds the President in pretty periods, such as the youngest collegians turn; and Ben Austin weaves a flimsy net of the frailest materials, throws it into "the great deep" of Politics, and then wonders, that he should take nothing tho' he toiled all night.
Philadelphia,
TUESDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 3, 1795.
Extract of a letter from a gentleman in London to his Correspondent in New York, dated Sept. 8, '95, received by the ship Minerva arrived at N. York.
"There are now advertised for Philadelphia, the Ann and Mary, expected to sail in three days; ship Catherine, in about a week; the Factor in 3 weeks, and the General Washington in 4 or 5 days—Also, for Baltimore, the Cleopatra and the Harmony."
The ship Camilla is arrived at London, and the Asia at Hamburg, both from this port.
THIS Evening, at seven o'clock, for the accommodation of the Welsh Families in this city, a SERMON will be preached in their language, by the Rev. MORGAN J. RHEES, in the Baptist Church in Second-street; the substance of which will afterwards be given in English, for the sake of those who do not understand the Welsh language.
FOR THE GAZETTE OF THE UNITED STATES.
MR. FENNO,
DO give the Aurora Company a jog respecting the late treaties of peace with the Indian Kings; and also with the Emperor of Morocco—as these subjects may afford an agreeable change, or serve at least to illustrate the hicknery'd observations respecting the misconduct of Jay and the 20 Senators. Treaties between Republics and Despots do not lose their malignity, from becoming numerous. At the rate France and the United States are going on, they will soon not only be at peace, but in friendship with all mankind—This is a LEGION ."
HISPANIOLA.
The Spanish part of this valuable island, which they have lately ceded to France, is much larger and equal in respect to soil and situation to the old French possessions on the island. To understand the importance of this cession to France, should they adopt a rational system of police, it is sufficient to take a view of the immense productions, France received from her part of the island, before the revolution; its consumption, and its commerce, as taken from the documents of the administration of St. Domingo.
The French part of this island contained 2,500,000 acres of land, whereof 1,500,000 were under rich cultivation in 1789; this surface was divided into 51 parishes, regulated under a civil and military government. In which were,
 793 sugar-works, the first of which was begun in 1700  3117 coffee do. begun in 1720.  3150 indigo }  789 cotton } Plantations.  54 cocoa, }  2150 mills, whereof 520 were water-mills.  The produce of these plantations amounted annually to 20,000,000 of dollars; which employed 700 national vessels, averaging 250 tons each, besides nearly the same number of American vessels of a smaller burthen. The population was 36,000 resident whites; 25,000 free people of colour, and 450,000 slaves. The articles exported in 1788 to France, were, 164,000,000 pounds of sugar, (70 white, 94 brown.) 68,151,181 coffee. 6,216,121 cotton. 230,016 indigo. 20,000 hogsheads of molasses. 303 do. spirits. 13,000 tanned hides.
The duties on the exportation thereof amounted to 119,521 dollars, equal to the several expenses of the government, and supporting a garrison of 3000 troops. Its mutual consumption was about 100,000 barrels of French flour; 130,000 casks of claret, &c.
The sugar and indigo plantations were in the flats; the coffee in the mountainous lands.
The plantations were for the most part enclosed with live hedges, straight and well dressed: the dwelling and manufactory houses were generally built and laid out with great neatness and taste; every inhabitant possessed a private hospital to cure its sick negroes, who were parentally dealt with; the roads were excellent—and from the general hospitality and cheerfulness of its former inhabitants, take it all in all, was one of the most enviable spots on earth.
Such was the French part of St. Domingo in 1789—But, alas, it is no more—The destructive ravages of an unrelenting insurrection, and frightful massacres and conflagrations, have laid waste all those beautiful settlements, reduced the buildings to ashes, and laid low in dust, or scattered in exile, its wretched inhabitants. Nevertheless, with wise management, and such regulations as are to be calculated for the nature of the climate and population, it may yet regain its ancient splendor, perhaps redoubled by the Spanish acquisition.

On the 28th ult. of the epidemic fever, much regretted, DANIEL HAUXHURST, a member of the Society of Quakers, and one of those benevolent characters, who distinguished himself in the late season of calamity and distress (with which this city hath been visited) by an exertion to find out and administer to the relief of the poor and afflicted of every description.
NEW-BRUNSWICK, November 2.
THE BRIDGE.
We feel a pleasure in announcing that the Bridge at this place over the river Raritan is so far complete as to render it passable for carriages; and we congratulate our fellow citizens that this arduous and arduous undertaking has been accomplished with such expedition, and without any distressing accident occurring to the workmen. The railings, foot-walks and gate are however not wholly complete; but no impediment or obstacle arises to travellers from the want of these.
The length of this grand structure is about 330 yards; its width sufficient for carriages to pass each other with ease, exclusive of a convenient foot-walk. The wood-work of this magnificent building rests upon thirteen large and lofty pillars, including the two buttments, which for strength and elegance, we are warranted in declaring, far exceed any thing of the kind in America.
A draw is placed over the deepest water, for permitting vessels to pass and repass. From each extreme a gentle ascent is observable until it meets the centre, which, besides its usefulness in permitting the water to drain off, has a pleasing effect upon the observer. The whole of the structure exhibits a specimen of workmanship, combining strength and elegance, which at once reflects the highest honor upon the ingenuity of the builders and the liberality of the proprietors.
It is to be regretted that the burden of this great public convenience should be borne by a few individuals, as there is room for believing that a suitable rate per cent. will not be realized for the great advances, pains and trouble to which the proprietors have been subjected.
BALTIMORE, October 31.

Capt. Griffith, for Bolton, which he afterwards spoke in lat. 40, long. 69, with the loss of her fore-topmast.
The brig Mercury, of Philadelphia, Captain Stoteberry, arrived yesterday evening in nine weeks from the Downs; consequently brings no late papers. Spoke no American vessels. Also, arrived the ship Citizen, Capt. Garduer, 7 weeks from Bremen.
NORFOLK, October 26.
We understand that there is a proclamation in town from Victor Hughes, stating, that a register is kept of all American property detained at Guadalupe, and that restitution will be made for the same. It also invites the planters to return to their respective habitations.
On Saturday arrived here the ship Thomas, capt. Vickery, in 55 days from Liverpool. Captain Vickery brings nothing new. On his passage spoke the following vessels:

We are informed, that circular letters have been transmitted by Mr. Randolph, the late secretary of State, to his friends in various parts of the union, enclosing a certificate which was sent by citizen Fauchet to the present French minister, citizen Adet, and by him communicated to Mr. Randolph. The contents of this certificate afford Mr. Randolph a complete exoneration from the charges which have been so industriously disseminated against him. Many interesting particulars are detailed also in this certificate which it is thought improper here to mention, as Mr. Randolph's vindication, addressed to the people, will, it is supposed be in a short time published.
NEWBERN, Oct. 10.
The late term of the Superior Court, which closed on Saturday last, was distinguished by an uncommon diligence, wisdom, and impartiality in the court. It was seen that those defects in the administration of justice, which have excited such general complaint, were not imputable to the judiciary system. It was seen that the laws have sufficient energy in the hands of an able judge; and that our anxiety should be employed in filling the bench, rather than in altering, or removing it. This is the first time we have seen judge Haywood in the exercise of his office, and we were happy to remark that his patient attention to business, his calm and learned discussion, his upright and solid opinions, obtained the most sincere applause, and inspired a universal satisfaction.
EDENTON, Oct. 22.
The October term of the Superior Court for this district closed on Tuesday last, in which the greatest diligence was observed in the dispatch of business.

EXTRACT FROM THE CRITICAL REVIEW, APRIL 1791 p. 468. "It may be a tale of truth, for it is not unnatural, and it is a tale of real distress—Charlotte, by the artifice of a cacher, recommended to a school, from humanity rather than a conviction of her integrity, or the regularity, of her former conduct, is enticed from her governess, and accompanies a young officer to America—the marriage ceremony, if not forgotten, is postponed, and Charlotte dies a martyr to the inconstancy of her lover and treachery of his friend. The situations are artless and affecting—the description natural and pathetic; we should feel for Charlotte if such a person ever existed, who for one error, scarcely, perhaps deserved so severe a punishment. If it be a fiction, poetic justice is not, we think, properly distributed." 1. The Inquisitor—by Mrs. Rowton. Second Philadelphia edition. 87 1 2 cents. 2.

City of Washington.  SCHEME of the LOTTERY, No. II; FOR THE IMPROVEMENT OF THE FEDERAL CITY. A magnificent 20,000 Dollars, and dwelling house, cash 36,000 are    1 ditto  15,000 & cash  25,000    1 ditto  15,000 & cash  15,000    1 ditto  10,000 & cash  10,000    1 ditto  5,000 & cash  5,000    1 ditto  5,000 & cash  5,000    2 ditto  prize of  10,000    2 ditto  5,000 each, are  10,000    10 ditto  1,000  10,000    20 ditto  500  10,000    100 ditto  100  10,000    500 ditto  20  10,000    1,000 ditto  10  10,000    15,000 ditto  1  15,000    16,739 Prizes 33,261 Blanks 50,000 Tickets at 3 dollars 150,000
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 completed, to the fortunate adventurers, in the manner described in the Scheme for the Hotel Lottery. A nett deduction of five per cent. will be made to defray the necessary expenses of printing, &c. and the surplus will be made a part of the fund intended for the National University, to be erected within the City of Washington.
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 subscribers 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 Prize 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. The synopsis of one of the Colleges, to form a branch of the National Institution, is already in the press, and will be speedily published, together with its constitution. A compleat PLAN of the whole of the proposed 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 short suspension indispensable. February 24, 1795. SAMUEL BLODGET.
Aug 30 Tickets may be had at the Bank of Columbia; of James West & Co. Baltimore or Gideon Denison, Savannah, of Peter Gilman, Boston; of John Hopkins Richmond; and of Richard Wells, Cooper's ferry.
LOTTERY INTELLIGENCE.
We are informed that the gentleman who drew, the 15,000 dollar prize, in the Canal Lottery, was the proprietor of only a single Ticket—This instance of good fortune, shews that it is well to be in Fortune's road; and is the more pleasing, as the owner of the prize is a very worthy, though not a very affluent citizen.
The Scheme of the Canal Lottery is certainly one of the best which has appeared—For, independent of the useful objects to which its proceeds are to be applied, the scheme is so calculated as to continually enhance the value of the Tickets remaining in the wheel; because, while the drawing progresses, the chance of a capital prize growing greater, must increase the value of the undrawn Ticket. The Prizes drawn to the close of the drawing on last Wednesday Evening, were
  1 of 15,000   2 of 2,000   5 of 1,000   4 of 500   11 of 100   1700 of 15   And there then remained in the wheel    1 of 50,000   1 of 30,000   2 of 10,000   6 of 2,500   9 of 1,000   15 of 1,000   36 of 500   89 of 100   14800 of 15 
And 5 stationary prizes of 20,000 dollars each; by which, and the nature of those 5 stationary prizes, which are to belong to the five last drawn tickets, it will be found, that an undrawn ticket was yesterday morning, worth nearly 112 dollars, which, at the beginning, was worth no more than 10 dollars—and so the undrawn tickets must continue to increase in value, as fast as the drawing proceeds: And this circumstance will account for the number of Offices which are opened for the sale of Tickets, as the profits must be daily increasing; and in a few days a Ticket now selling at 11 dollars, will no doubt command 15 dollars, and must continue to get higher as the drawing approximates to the five stationary prizes of 20,000 dollars each.
