A PROPOSAL
BY William Young Birch, AND Abraham Small, Of the City of Philadelphia, FOR PUBLISHING BY SUBSCRIPTION, THAT INVALUABLE WORK, DR. RUSSELL'S HISTORY OF Modern Europe.
With an account of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire, the Rise of Modern Kingdoms, &c. &c.
THE great applause which this excellent book has received, is a sure proof of its merits. The vast sale which it has had for several years, is a fair criterion by which the public opinion of its worth can be known. During the life of the learned author, it went through the annual sale of a very large impression; every succeeding edition received some improvement the result of his deep researches and great judgment—he lived to make it as perfect as the nature of things it would be—he is dead! Whilst the English language is read, the History of Modern Europe will remain a monument to his fame! It is as entertaining as instructive; as interesting as profound. The plan of the work is copious, but by a happy arrangement, the reader is at once presented with the contemporary history of every part of Europe. The book now offered to the public is from the last and most correct copy, to which this shall be no way inferior.
IT CONTAINS An history of the decline and fall of the Roman empire. The rise of modern kingdoms, generally. A particular history of the French monarchy. Do. Spain from the dominion of the Visigoths. Italy, with the rise and progress of the Temporal Power of the Popes. Britain, from its relinquishment by the Romans. Ireland. The German empire, from Charlemagne. The empire of Constantinople to its overthrow. Empire of the Arabs. Rise and progress of the Turks and fall of the Greek empire. History of Portugal; View of the progress of Navigation; Conquests in the East and West Indies; Discovery of America, &c. History of Sweden, Denmark, Norway, Russia, Poland and Prussia: North America, as connected with European history. A very comprehensive and highly useful chronology.
CONDITIONS. I. The whole shall be completed in five large octavo volumes, printed in the best manner, on a superior paper. II. It is intended to deliver one volume every two months, at the price of Two Dollars per volume in boards, payable on delivery. III. As it may be inconvenient to deliver them to distant subscribers in single volumes, those who wish it, may let them remain with the publishers until the whole are published. The work is at present and will be printed on a beautiful new type-cast for the purpose. The encouragers of this undertaking may rest assured, that nothing now foreseen shall delay its regular progress; so that in one year at farthest the citizens of the United States shall be presented with an American Edition of Dr. Russell's History of Modern Europe, equal to the English copy, and at a lower price.

NOW THEREFORE, the undersigned Secretary of the Treasury, in pursuance of the act of Congress and the authority from the President of the United States above mentioned—Doth Hereby, on behalf of the United States of America, contract and engage in manner following, to wit:
1st. There shall be created a funded Capital Stock, to an amount hereafter to be designated by the said Secretary, but not exceeding Three Millions Five Hundred Thousand Dollars, which Capital Stock shall be divisible into shares of one hundred dollars each, bearing interest, at eight per centum per annum, payable quarter yearly at the Treasury of the United States, or at the Loan Offices, where the said Stock may stand credited, until the last day of December in the year eighteen hundred and eight.
2d. After the last day of December in the said year one thousand eight hundred and eight, and after reasonable notice to the creditors, which shall be given by an advertisement in some public newspaper printed at the seat of the government of the United States, the said Capital Stock shall be redeemable at the pleasure of the United States, by the reimbursement of the whole sum or sums borrowed and which may constitute the said Capital Stock, either at the Treasury of the United States, or at the Loan Offices where the same may stand credited.
3d. The credits for the said Capital Stock shall and may be separately certified in sums either for one hundred, four hundred, one thousand, four thousand, or ten thousand dollars, and the credits so certified shall be transferable by the creditors, or their attorneys, at the Treasury and Loan Offices respectively, in pursuance of the rules which have been or which may be established relative to the transfer of the funded Stock of the United States.
4th. A sufficient sum of the surplus of the duties on imports and tonnage beyond the permanent appropriations heretofore charged upon them by law—together with the faith of the United States, are hereby pledged for the fulfilment of this contract, in pursuance of, and according to the terms and conditions of the act of Congress herein before recited.  GIVEN under my hand, and the seal of the Treasury of the United States, at Philadelphia, this second day of June, 1799, one thousand eight hundred, and of the Independence the twenty-fourth.  OLIVER WOLCOTT, Secretary of the Treasury.  BANK OF THE UNITED STATES. June 21, 1800.  Proposals will be received until the last day of July next inclusive, at the Bank of the United States, and the Offices of Discount and Deposit at Bolton, New-York, Baltimore, Norfolk, and Charleston, for the purchase of One Million and Five Hundred Thousand Dollars of Stock, directed by the Secretary of the Treasury, to be issued in pursuance of the abovementioned contract. The proposals most advantageous to the United States will be accepted, but no Stock will be issued at less than five per centum advance, or one hundred and five dollars in money for one hundred dollars in stock. In case the sums specified in similar proposals shall exceed the amount of stock
offered for sale at the places abovementioned, they will be accepted, subject to a proportional deduction.

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.
Facts of this conclusive nature speak more in favour of a medicine, than columns of pompous eulogy, founded on mere assertion, could do. It is not indeed presumptuously proposed as an infallible cure, but the inventor has every possible reason, which can result from extensive experience for believing that a dose of these pills, taken once every two weeks during the prevalence of our annual bilious fevers, will prove an infallible preventative; and further, that in the earlier stages of those diseases, their use will very generally succeed in restoring health and frequently in cases esteemed desperate and beyond the power of common remedies.
The operation of these pills is perfectly mild and may be used with safety by persons in every situation and of every age. They are excellently adapted to carry off a 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 preserved for use by every seaman.
DR. HAHN'S
Genuine Eye-water.
A certain and safe remedy for all diseases of the eyes, whether the effect of natural weakness, or of accident, speedily removing inflammations, defluxions of rheum, dullness, itching, and films in the eyes, never failing to cure those maladies which frequently succeed the small pox, measles and fevers, and wonderfully strengthening a weak sight. Hundreds have experienced its excellent virtues when nearly deprived of sight.
Tooth-ache Drops.
The only remedy yet discovered which gives immediate and lasting relief in the most severe instances.
The Anodyne Elixir.
 For the cure of every kind of head-ache, and for pains in the face and neck.    Infallible Ague and Fever Drops.    This medicine has never failed, in many thousands and cases not one in a hundred has had occasion to take more than one bottle, and numbers not halt a bottle. The money will be returned if the cure is not performed.    SOLD BY WM. Y. BIRCH, STATIONER, No. 17, South Second Street, And no where else, in Philadelphia.

The merchants of the city, and friends to the interest of this paper, are requested to furnish the Editor with such London, Liverpool, Dublin and Edinburgh papers as come to hand.
FOR THE GAZETTE OF THE UNITED STATES.
LOAVES AND FISHES.
In the famous address to the Republicans of Bucks County, dated at Addis's Tavern, August 24, 1799, they were told, that if they succeeded in the grand object of raising to the first office in the State, Thomas McKean, the man of the people &c. &c. &c.
In pursuance of the above doctrine, the Jacobin clubs (I use the epithet on account of the near resemblance between them and the clubs of that name, who acted so conspicuous a part on the theatre of France,) continued their periodical meetings, and altho' endeavours were used to keep their proceedings a secret among themselves, the attempt always proved abortive, for they were not all of the Illuminati, and the business always transpired in a greater or a less degree.
One miscreant in particular, who had long been remarkable for his want of common honesty, who has forged and recorded a receipt for interest money, never paid, in order to secure the payment of principal upon a bond long since discharged, has drawn and caused to be executed, a bond and judgment without a consideration, to defraud a poor woman of her living, in case she should be left, a widow—and other feats of the same complexion; and who had never ventured to meddle with firelocks, except on the following occasion, viz. to drive from his dwelling a little kitchen girl, who had complained to his wife of his impudence—began to kick and squeal with all the grimaces of a crazy baboon, and circulated a report from Bristol to Durham, that there was such a set of damn'd rascals about the public office that he could not frequent it with safety, nor even venture into the street without carrying his pistol and bayonet.
At length came the memorable 17th of December, 1799, when the streets of Lancaster were illuminated with torches, and crowds of patriots moving in procession, rent the air with joyful acclamations. Meanwhile the chief, not elevated by success above his proper level, as vulgar minds usually are, retained his equanimity, and remained the same candid placid creature as before, entered immediately upon the duties of his office, and issued a proclamation, confirming and continuing all appointments and commissions, &c. &c. for 3 months, unless sooner superseded and annulled, &c. &c. &c.
Together with the proclamation and circular letter, came a verbal report, that the Register and Recorder of Bucks in particular (though not honored with a circular letter) would be in danger unless he discarded a certain clerk, who had taken the principal charge of those offices, for some years past, and in the course of his business, fully evinced his ability, industry, integrity and sobriety.
The matter was canvassed for a long time, and many pressing applications made to the officer for the removal of his clerk, who still retaining sense enough to know that he could not be spared, waved the matter from time to time, notwithstanding a numerous fry of candidates were besieging him on all sides.
Resolved, that it is expedient, that the Republican Citizens, and all who seek information on the subjects of the day, hold frequent meetings for mutual council, aid and encouragement.
The Physiognomy of this resolve puts one in mind of the character of a demagogue drawn by a modern hand, which appears to be exactly in point, of which take the following extract for a comment.
This was considered as a good republican resolution, and therefore passed nem. con. altho' it is so perfect a riddle that no one but the demagogue, who drew it in his close, can comprehend the meaning.
At length a tall raw-boned figure, who from his practice of neglecting his Clerical Functions for the sake of dabbbling in politics, has taken the name of Talleyrand, who is the reputed author of the Buckingham address of last year, and who, previous to the last election upon a day of Sacrament, between sermons, disguised the pious part of his hearers by distributing among them packets of the Aurora, advanced upon the floor, his aspect commanded immediate attention, and whether fraught with a message from his excellency supplementary to that of the 10th of December, or from his own native penetration, is uncertain, discovered that one principal object of the resolve was that the Register of Bucks be directed to discard his clerk, on pain of exhibiting the same spectacle that Broadhead and Parker had done before.
When the Register received the mandate he could not but feel the diminution of his own importance, and smarting under the democratic lash was led into a train of very
disagreeable scufations, which terminated in the following colloquy—Is it for this that I have so long exerted every nerve to promote the cause? O the weary days and nights that I have spent in planning and executing electioneering schemes, when the cause was extremely doubtful!
After awaking from his reverie he accordingly gave the signal to his clerk to depart, who upon the 17th inst. bid adieu to the painful services, consoling himself with this reflection, that the office wants me more than I want the office.
I should not have dwelt so long upon the minutiae of this trifling and local affair, were it not that the same conduct pervades the whole system of modern democracy, were not the same exertions, duplicity and scandal used to secure the loves and files of an orator, as those of a pound weight, but when we see the same train of secret craft and open calumny practiced against a President of the United States, a candidate for the office of Governor, or a Register clerk, it matters little from whence you take your examples.
or whether by a united and spirited exertion of the right of suffrage at the ensuing election continue the power in the hand of those men and their adherents, who at the commencement of the federal government rescued the states from the jaws of bankruptcy and impending ruin, and have since fed their course with so much wisdom and moderation that no honest man by their means has suffered either in his person or property.

[OFFICIAL.]
Extract of a letter from David M. Clarkson, Esq. to the Secretary of the Navy, dated St. Kitts, June 27th, 1800.
"It is much pleasure to announce to you, that only fifteen Americans are prisoners at Guadalupe, (Port de la Liberte) which, by letter I have received yesterday from agents at Guadalupe, (by two flags of truce I lent up with French prisoners) will instantly be sent me by a flag of theirs, and there still remain, of the French prisoners here, one hundred and eighty."
Extract of a letter from Lieutenant John Shaw, commanding the United States Schooner Enterprise, of 12 guns, to the Secretary of the Navy, dated, St. Kitts, June 21st.
"I have the honor to inform you, that on the 17th instant, I fell in with the French privateer, La Cigne, of 4 guns and 57 men, off Guadalupe, the engaged me for 20 minutes, when she struck her colours—I have brought her in here."
Extract of letter from Captain George Cross of the United States ship John Adams, to the Secretary of the Navy, dated St. Kitts, June 24.
"On the 13th instant, off Guadalupe, I captured the French privateer Schooner La Decade, mounting six three pounders, and 31 men, fitted out at Bassetterre.—The Squadron has been very successful in capturing privateers the last month. Five are now lying at St. Kitts, with the American colours over the National."
Extract of a letter from an officer on board the U.S. sloop of war Patapsco, dated off East end of Porto Rico, 18th June, 1800.
"We have only taken one vessel since we have been out, a small Schooner under English colours; the master of which said he was from Antigua bound to St. Thomas's, but had no papers of any kind, not even a log book on board; his cargo consisted of Naval Stores and Wine. We thought proper to send him to St. Christopher's, our place of rendezvous, but whether he will be condemned or not, I cannot yet inform you; but this I am certain of, had an American vessel been taken by a British cruiser under the same circumstances, she would have been condemned without much ceremony."
Captain Hudson, lately arrived at New-Port from the Havannah, from whence he sailed under convoy of the United States frigate General Greene, informs that while on the passage from New-Orleans to the Havannah, with an American brig under convoy, the General Greene fell in with a British 74 gun ship, which fired a shot at the brig to bring too for examination. As neither the brig nor the General Greene paid any attention to this, but kept on their course, a boat was dispatched from the 74 to board the brig.—The General Greene upon this fired a shot at the boat, which immediately brought her along along side; in consequence of which the 74 bore down and spoke the frigate, demanding the reason why her boat was fired upon;—to which, capt. Perry replied, that it was to prevent her boarding the brig, which was under his protection. The captain of the man-of-war then observed, it was very surprising that a British 74 gun ship could not examine a merchant brig! Capt. Perry replied, if she had been a first rate ship she should not do it to the dishonour of his flag. He then in polite terms, asked capt. Perry if he would consent to the brig's being examined;—Capt. Perry assented, but observed that it would be useless as he knew her cargo to be no ways liable to seizure.
The General Greene has arrived at New-Port, all well.

COUNTERFEIT
Bank Notes have recently been detected in Norfolk, Virginia. It is from the Alexandria Bank, originally a good five dollar note, but altered by a fresh stamp to Fifty Dollars. The words FIFTY are much blacker than the rest of the copperplate; and on holding the note up to light, the words FIVE are plainly to be discovered. The note detected is numbered 283, drawn in favour of John Potts, and dated 5th April, 1798.
Forged notes of the Charleston Branch Bank of the United States, are also in circulation. They may be discovered by the word deposit being spelt deposi.
Doctor Charles Brown, an officer in the Continental service, has presented to Peale's Museum, a CANOE, made of Birch Bark. It measures 23 feet in length, breadth 4 feet, and 26 inches deep. Although of this large size, yet it is so light that two men may carry it with ease.
This Canoe was constructed at Saynans-Bay, on Lake Huron. It carried 6 persons and 1,200 weight of baggage across the Lakes.
The Doctor in coming down to N. York, passed a portage of 25 miles, viz. 9 at the Falls of Niagara, and 16 at Schenectady and Albany. It was his intention to come round through the sounds and up the Delaware; but cold and bad weather induced him to have it carried from Brunswic to Trenton, from whence he descended the river to this city.
When we look on this Canoe (the work of an Indian woman) it should remind us of an excellent custom among several nations of the Aborigines of America: They esteem their daughters unfit for marriage before they can make a Canoe; and say, that they ought not to be given as a spouse before they can be a HELP MEATE.
The Publiciste, a Paris paper, lays, excepting the generals, the army of the Rhine and that of Italy are prohibited from writing any military or political news. The cou-
riers are also forbid under a pecuniary penalty to speak on the subject of their mission. The erection of statues and busts seems to be quite the order of the day at present in France. In this business the citizens of Grenoble appear to have taken the lead. They have raised a subscription for erecting the busts of the Chevalier Bayard, the coalable Ledigiercristel the Poet Bernard and the Mechanist Vincouzon, and intend raising another, for procuring the statues of all the illustrious men to whom their city has given birth.

About the middle of last April, died the brother of M. Thugut, minister at Vienna. It is some what remarkable that this brother was only a secretary in one of the departments. Thugut never would grant him any promotion. A singular trait in the character of Thugut and which the Paris papers assert as a fact, is, that, altho the income arising from his situation is 20,000 florins, he will not accept of more than 15,000.
PARIS.
"Yesterday the cashier of one of the principal banking houses in this city shot himself on account of an error of 25 thousand francs which appeared in his accounts. The officer he examined them the more terrified he became & the less able was he to discover whence the error arose. After his death, the Bankers, with whose affairs he was entrusted had them settled, and found them perfectly in order." Such uncommon sensibility, for the character of honesty merited a better fate.
CHARLESTON, July 10.
On the murder of John Hammond, Esquire: An account of which was published some time since.
Atonement shall come, clothed in judicial terrors. Thy blood, which so many of thy friends saw bursting from thy wound, demands vengeance. The earth hath drunk its material part, its essential property hath been borne on the wings of accusation, to Heaven's throne: thence it shall roll in awful thunder o'er the guilty head. It shall glare in vivid lightnings, and smite the murderer's heart. He, who, envious of thy independent feelings, thy prosperity in life, and the hardihood of thy character, tempted the assassin to the bloody deed, already quakes! Methinks I see him shivering with terror at every breath of wind. Yes! "tremble, though wretch, that hath within thee undivulged crimes—unwhipt of justice." "Thou shalt repay, light for light, and groan for groan, ten thousand fold; 'till, racked and tortured by fear and remorse, in the convulsive throes of conscience, thou wilt gladly seek relief by an avowal of thy crimes. Miserable comfort, the deal of thy destruction! Then shalt thou exclaim, in the bitter language of Satan,
Me miserable, which way shall I fly? Infinite wrath and infinite despair! Which way, I fly is hell; myself am hell; And in the lowest deep, a lower deep Still threatening to devour me, opens wide, To which the hell I suffer seems a Heaven!
WEST-INDIES.
KINGSTON, June 23.
We learn from Port-au-Prince, that Toussaint lately sent an officer at the head of 300 men to demand the cession of the Spanish part of St. Domingo—his motions having been known to the Spanish Governor, he assembled 800 men, whom he ordered to be stationed at a post on the frontiers, through which the French must necessarily pass, with orders to stop their progress, which was done; the French commander was allowed to proceed alone to Santo Domingo, where after a stay of 3 days, and several conferences with the Spanish Governor, he received an order for his instantly leaving the Spanish Territory.
June 25.
A French frigate which arrived at Saint Domingo not long ago, with Commissioners from Buonaparte, has been sent to Curacao, in order to assist in resisting the ship which had the engagement with the American frigate Constellation.

Cockburn, was in chase of the Flying-Fish, all the slaves were left ashore to trim the schooner who embraced that opportunity of rising upon the crew—a convict ensued, in which capt. Parkwood, his two mates, and two men, and ten slaves were killed. The three others of the crew saved themselves by running up to the main head, and remaining there till the Neptune captured her. She was sent into New-Providence, a paper of which place contains the following article on this subject.

BALTIMORE, July 26.
The ship Mount Vernon, Rutter, twenty-one weeks from Calcutta, is in the Bay, and may be expected up to-morrow.
The following particulars from her have been received by her owner, and politely handed us for publication.
The Mount Vernon left Calcutta on the 2d March, in co. with ship Sanfom, Treadwell; parted off the Cape of Good Hope. The Mount Vernon arrived at St. Helena on the 7th June sailed from thence on the 12th, in co. with ship India Ashmead, of Philadelphia. July 13, in latitude 23. 5. N. longitude 61. 45. W. saw a Schooner in chase of us; at three o'clock P. M. hove about to meet her; she not liking this, took her larboard tacks on board and made all sail—At 1, P. M. finding we did not gain on her, gave over the chase and stood on our course; at half past 3 P. M. saw a schr. to leeward, standing S. S. E. by the wind; at half past 4, she put about and gave chase, as 6 observed she gained fast on us, and being well assured she was a French privateer we determined to surprise her in the night with this intention, about half past 8, we attempted to put the ship about, but unfortunately she missed stays, otherwise we could have kept to windward of her; in wearing ship we fell about 4 or 500 yards to leeward; at 9 discovered the schooner to be off our larboard bow, hoisted a light, which not being answered, we gave her a broadside; the India, which had kept company with us from St. Helena, also gave her a broadside as she passed; we immediately tacked ship, luffing close with the wind; shortly after, discovered the schooner something farther to windward, laying a contrary course from us; as soon as we came abreast of her both ships repeated the broadside and then stood on our course. July 14, at 1, A. M. saw the Schooner in chase of us again; at 2, fired a stern chaser and hoisted our colors; she answered immediately and hoisted French colors; at 3, hove to and prepared for action; at 4, the pri-
vancer being then about a half a mile to windward, gave us a broadside, which we instantly returned; she then fired three guns, made sail and hauled her wind; from this time until 2, P. M. we kept up a constant fire, and the ship India dropped a stern we gave over the chase.
The Mount Vernon mounts sixteen sixes, the India, six threes and fours; the privateer showed eighteen guns and eighty men; she kept a private signal flying both before and after the engagement, from which circumstance we concluded she expected a coadjutor. Near St. Helena, on the 3d June, we spoke the ship Commerce, of Baltimore, from Batavia. We heard at St. Helena, that the Essex frigate had left the Cape of Good Hope for Java Head.
List of American vessels that sailed from Calcutta on or about the 1st March.
Ship Sanfom, of New York; parted with her off the Cape of Good Hope.
