CONGRESS.
WASHINGTON CITY, Nov. 6.
Mr. J. Randolph, requested information from the chair, as to the situation in which the articles of impeachment against Samuel Chase, one of the associate justices of the supreme court of the United States, were left at the last session. The house would recollect that they were then merely reported, and ordered to be printed. If that business was to be prosecuted, he conceived it of importance that the party should have all the time to prepare for his defence, that their political existence would allow him. Was it the opinion of the Speaker, that this subject was before the committee of revival and unfinished business, or should it be referred to a special committee to prepare articles de novo .
On motion of Mr. J. Randolph, a select committee, to consist of five members, was ordered to report on the articles of impeachment against S. Chase, one of the associate justices of the supreme court of the United States.
PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE.
WASHINGTON, (City) Nov. 8. This Day at 12 o'clock, the President of the United States, by Mr. Burwell, his secretary, delivered the following message to both houses of Congress. To the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States.
TO a people, fellow citizens, who sincerely desire the happiness and prosperity of other nations, to those who justly calculate that their own well being is advanced by that of the nations with which they have intercourse, it will be a satisfaction to observe that the war which was lighted up in Europe a little before our last meeting, has not yet extended its flames to other nations, nor been marked by the calamities which sometimes stain the footsteps of war. The irregularities too on the ocean, which generally harass the commerce of neutral nations, have, in distant parts, disturbed our less than on former occasions. But, in the American seas, they have been greater from peculiar causes; and even within our harbors and jurisdiction, infringements on the authority of the laws have been committed which have called for serious attention. The friendly conduct of the governments from whose officers and subjects these acts have proceeded, in other respects, and in places more under their observation and control, gives us confidence that our representations on this subject will have been properly regarded.
While noticing the irregularities committed on the ocean by others, those on our part should not be omitted, nor left unprovided for. Complaints have been received that persons residing within the United States, have taken on themselves to arm merchant vessels, and to force a commerce into certain ports and countries, in defiance of the laws of those countries. That individuals should undertake to wage private war, independently of the authority of their country, cannot be permitted in a well ordered society. Its tendency to produce aggression on the laws and rights of other nations, and to endanger the peace of our own, is obvious, that I doubt not you will adopt measures for restraining it effectually in future.
Soon after the passage of the act of the last session, authorizing the establishment of a district and port of entry on the waters of Mobile, we learnt that its object was misunderstood on the part of Spain. Candid explanations were immediately given, and assurances, that, referring our claims in that quarter as a subject of discussion and arrangement with Spain, no act was meditated in the mean time inconsistent with the peace and friendship existing between the two nations; and that conformably to these intentions would be the execution of the law. That government had however thought proper to suspend the ratification of the convention of 1802. But the explanations which would reach them soon after, and still more the confirmation of them by the tenor of the instrument establishing the port and district, may reasonably be expected to replace them in the dispositions and views of the whole subject which originally dictated the convention.
I have the satisfaction to inform you that the objections which had been urged by that government against the validity of our title to the country of Louisiana have been withdrawn: its exact limits however remaining still to be settled between us. And to this is to be added that having prepared and delivered the flock created in execution of the convention of Paris of April 30th, 1803, in consideration of the cession of that country, we have received from the government of France an acknowledgment in due form of the fulfilment of that stipulation.
With the nations of Europe in general our friendship and intercourse are undisturbed: and from the governments of the belligerent powers especially, we continue to receive those friendly manifestations which are justly due to an honest neutrality, and to such good offices consistent with that, as we have opportunities of rendering.
The activity and success of the small force employed in the Mediterranean in the early part of the present year, the reinforcements sent into that sea, and the energy of the officers having command in the several vessels, will, I trust, by the blessings of war, reduce the barbarians of Tripoli to the desire of peace on proper terms. Great injury however ensues to ourselves as well as
to others interested, from the distance to which prizes must be brought for adjudication, and from the improbability of bringing higher such as are not feebly.
The Bey of Tunis having made requisitions unauthorized by our treaty, their rejection has produced from him some expressions of discontent. But to those who expect us to calculate whether a compliance with unjust demands will not cost us less than a war, we must leave as a question of calculation for them also, whether to retire from unjust demands will not cost them less than a war. We can do to each other very sensible injuries by war. But the mutual advantages of peace make that the best interest of both.
Peace and intercourse with the other powers on the same coast continue on the footing on which they are established by treaty.
In pursuance of the act providing for the temporary government of Louisiana, the necessary officers for the territory of Orleans were appointed in due time to commence the exercise of their functions on the 1st day of October. The distance however of some of them, and indispensable previous arrangements, may have retarded its commencement in some of its parts. The form of government thus provided having been considered but as temporary, and open to such future improvements as further information of the circumstances of our brethren there might suggest, it will of course be subject to your consideration.
In the district of Louisiana it has been thought best to adopt the division into subordinate districts which had been established under its former government. These being five in number, a commanding officer has been appointed to each according to the provisions of the law; and so soon as they can be at their stations that district will also be in its due state of organization. In the mean time their places are supplied by the officers before commanding there, and the functions of the governor and judges of Indiana having commenced, the government, we presume, is proceeding in its new form. The lead mines in that district offer so rich a supply of that metal as to merit attention. The report now communicated will inform you of their state, and of the necessity of immediate enquiry into their occupation and titles.
With the Indian tribes established within our newly acquired limits, I have thought it necessary to open conferences for the purpose of establishing a good understanding and neighbourly relations between us. So far as we have yet learned, we have reason to believe that their dispositions are generally favorable and friendly. And, with these dispositions on their part, we have in our hands means which cannot fail us, for preserving their peace and friendship. By pursuing an uniform course of justice towards them, by aiding them in all the improvements which may better their condition, and especially by establishing a commerce on terms which shall be advantageous to them, and only not losing to us, and so regulated as that no incendiaries, of our own, or any other nation, may be permitted to disturb the natural effects of our just and friendly offices, we may render ourselves so necessary to their comfort and prosperity, that the protection of our citizens from their disorderly members will become their interest and their voluntary care. Instead therefore of an augmentation of military force proportioned to our extension of frontier, I propose a moderate enlargement of the capital employed in that commerce as a more effectual, economical and humane instrument for preserving peace and good neighbourhood with them.
On this side the Mississippi an important relinquishment of native title has been received from the Delawares. That tribe, desiring to extinguish in their people the spirit of hunting, and to convert superfluous lands into the means of improving what they retain, has ceded to us all the country between the Wabash and Ohio, south of, and including the road from the Rapids towards Vincennes; for which they are to receive annuities in animals and implements for agriculture, and in other necessaries. This acquisition is important not only for its extent and fertility, but as, fronting three hundred miles on the Ohio, and near half that on the Wabash, the produce of the settled country descending those rivers will no longer pass in review of the Indian frontier, but in a small portion; and, with the cession heretofore made by the Kaskaskias, nearly consolidates our possessions north of the Ohio, in a very respectable breadth from Lake Erie to the Mississippi. The Piankeethaw having some claim to the country ceded by the Delawares, it has been thought best to quiet that by fair purchase also. So soon as the treaties on this subject shall have received their constitutional sanction, they shall be laid before both houses.
The act of Congress of February 28, 1803, for building and employing a number of gun boats, is now in a course of execution to the extent there provided for. The obstacle to naval enterprise which vessels of this construction offer for our sea port towns, their utility towards supporting within our waters the authority of the laws, the promptness with which they will be manned by the seamen and militia of the place in the moment they are wanted, the facility of their assembling from the different parts of the coast to any point where they are required in greater force than ordinary, the economy of their maintenance and preservation from decay when not in actual service, and the competence of our finances to this defensive provision without any new burthen, are considerations which will have due weight with Congress in deciding on the expediency of adding to their number from year to year, as experience shall test their utility, until all our important harbours, by these and auxiliary means, shall be secured against insult and opposition to the laws.
No circumstance has arisen since your last session which calls for any augmentation of our regular military
force. Should any emergency occur in the future, our resources will be found ample.
Accounts of the receipts and expenditures of the last year, with estimates for the ensuing one will, as usual, be laid before you.
The state of our finances continues to fulfil our expectations. Eleven millions and an half of dollars, received in the course of the year ending on the 30th of September last, have enabled us, after meeting all the ordinary expenses of the year, to pay upwards of three millions six hundred thousand dollars of the public debt, exclusive of interest. This payment, with those of the two preceding years, has extinguished upwards of twelve millions of principal, and a greater sum of interest, within that period; and, by a proportionate diminution of interest renders already sensible the effect of the growing sum yearly applicable to the discharge of principal.
It is also ascertained that the revenue accrued during the last year exceeds that of the preceding; and the probable receipts of the ensuing year, may safely be relied on as sufficient, with the sum already in the Treasury, to meet all the current demands of the year, to discharge upwards of three millions and an half of the engagements incurred under the British and French conventions, and to advance in the further redemption of the funded debt as rapidly as had been contemplated.
These, fellow citizens, are the principal matters which I have thought it necessary at this time to communicate for your consideration and attention. Some others will be laid before you in the course of the session. But in the discharge of the great duties confided to you by your country, you will take a broader view of the field of legislation. Whether the great interests of agriculture, manufactures, commerce or navigation, can, within the pale of your constitutional powers, be aided in any of their relations? Whether laws are provided in all cases where they are wanting? Whether those provided are exactly what they should be? Whether any abuses take place in their administration or in that of the public revenues? Whether the organization of the public agents or of the public force is perfect in all its parts? In fine, whether any thing can be done to advance the general good? These are questions within the limits of your functions, which will necessarily occupy your attention. In these and all other matters, which you in your wisdom may propose for the good of our country, you may count with assurance on my hearty co-operation and faithful execution.

Answer of the House of Representatives to the Governor's Address.
To HIS EXCELLENCY C. GREENUP. We congratulate your excellency upon the distinguished approbation.
which our citizens have given you, by your late election to the chief magistracy--a testimony of their approval of the more than honorable course you have pursued since it is the uncontested expression of the will of a free people. Whilst other nations, by a fatal sequela, suffer themselves to be enslaved by a single man, at the very moment when he is delusively promising them liberty, it is the happy lot of Americans to enjoy in reality this invaluable blessing. We agree with you, that renowned in history as are the republics of Greece and Rome, their systems of government were much less calculated to secure the great objects of human association, than those of our own country. It was reserved for her to produce, as it were, and perfect the great principles of election and representation; and to demonstrate to the old world that, degenerated as we are supposed to be in the proud opinion of some of their philosophers, we have presented the people in the government of themselves, in a dignified station worthy of their imitation.
That under the auspices of such a government, wisely administered, should appear a growing agriculture, flourishing manufactures, and an extensive commerce was to have been expected; and the pleasing preface of future wealth and greatness, which they authorise us to anticipate in our own state, is gratifying indeed. Where but yesterday the tottering canoe of savage man was dashed by every agitation of the stream, now rides in grandeur the stately ship, defying the rage of the storm, and affording the means of safe transportation to the most distant quarter of the globe, of all the surplus products of civilized life. In facilitating this intercourse, the acquisition of Louisiana cannot be too highly appreciated. Whilst it gives to us in all its extent that immense country, comprehending perhaps West Florida, and the Island of New-Orleans; it places under our sovereignty one of the finest and noblest rivers in the world. This great attainment, so honorably and wisely obtained, and so worthy of preservation at any hazard, secures to our own state in the Federal Union that elevation to which she is entitled.
The order which you are pleased to inform us prevails throughout the state; the respect shown to the public functionaries; and the absence of criminal offences are pleasing evidences of the just estimate made by our Fellow-citizens of their happy condition. To continue this state of things, we concur with you as to the importance of a well organized Judiciary: and we shall cheerfully co-operate in any measures which may be necessary to render it respectable and dignified.
It is to be regretted that the credit of the state paper should have been heretofore so much impaired; and although the additional taxes laid at the last session of the Legislature, will it is hoped, place entire confidence in the punctuality of the Commonwealth; this subject merits and shall receive the most particular attention.
The house of Representatives will give due consideration to the several other matters recommended by you to the notice of the Legislature; and fully impressed with the propriety of cherishing harmony with the other departments of government, they pledge themselves to devote their best exertions to the public good.

TO THE HUMANE & BENEVOLENT. THE following statement is made to excite their charitable interposition in behalf of CLARINDA ALLINGTON.  Clarinda Allington, who was taken captive by the Shawnee Indians, twelve years ago, at Morgan's Station in this state. Among that tribe, there was a Cherokee chief who took possession of this woman, at that time only eleven years of age. When the treaty of Greenville came on, she was detained by her tyrant, contrary to an article in that instrument, relative to the delivery of all captives; and was at length conducted by a secret route, to the Cherokee Nation. Her situation there has been extremely distressing, owing to the cruelty of her tyrant. For four years after her captivity, she was continually in danger of losing her life, by refusing to become his wife. His preservation, however, ultimately induced her to yield to the importunities of the savage, by whom she has had three children, who are now with her in this country.  Mr. Wm. B. Rice, a relation of Clarinda Allington, having heard, by accident, that she was among the Cherokee Indians, proceeded on to that nation, at a considerable expense, to bring her away. He there had an interview with the chief her master; who agreed in consequence of a council decree, to deliver her up in 110 days, the term computed by them, for the delivery of her last child, with whom she was then pregnant, and for her recovery. The time having arrived when she was to be given up, Mr. Rice, with additional expense, lent his son to the nation, to receive her. He there made application to Return Meiggs, the agent of Indian affairs. Meiggs asked the woman, whether she was willing to return? She answered, that if she could have permission to carry her children along with her, she was desirous of going again among her friends. He then asked the chief her master if he was willing that his children should be taken from him.
The chief, speaking from this question, that he had it at his option to give his consent or refuse, and anxious to detain the woman, immediately refused his permission to give the children up, altho' the act was contrary to an existing custom among themselves, that the mother possesses an exclusive claim to her offspring, which can never be separated from her by the authority of the husband. The agent upon this, told the woman she need lay nothing more on the subject, and was refused permission, at that time, to return to her friends. At the annual meeting held this year at Tellico block house, to administer contributions to the Indians, she received the affections of her master to visit her friends in Kentucky, upon condition that she would return in six weeks. For this purpose, Goody, the interpreter in the Cherokee nation, got his nephew to accompany her, who being supplied with money by a benevolent young man from this state, now at South West Point, arrived with her in Mercer county a few days past. As she does not wish to return again to the cruel tyrant, who has so long detained her from her country and connections, and being destitute of every means of supporting herself and three young children, the object of this address is to excite the attention of the humane in her behalf, and to engage them to do something for her support, until she can be usefully employed in such a manner as to provide for herself and infant family.  Clarinda Allington now resides at Mr. W. B. Rice's in Mercer county.
Extract of a letter from Natchitoches, to a gentleman in Natchez, dated September 4, 1804.  By the arrival of two gentlemen from the river Sublime, we are informed that the Spaniards are doing all in their power to let the Indians on our backs. They have invited all the different tribes to a treaty near Nazacoches, for the express purpose, it is said of driving them into a war with us. The treaty is to be held the first of October.
It is reported, in a letter from the Hague of the 13th inst, that the Directors of the Batavian Republic, the Landamman of Switzerland, and the Vice-President of the Italian Republic, are appointed to be commanders of the Legion of Honor. It is said, that the same honours have been offered to the King of Spain, Prussia, and Denmark, of the Electors of Bavaria, Hesse, and Baden, and to the President of the United States of America. (London pap.)
Extract of a letter from an officer on board the U. S. frigate Congress, to a gentleman in Providence, R. I. dated Gibraltar-Bay, Sept. 1.  “I have but a moment to inform you of our having arrived here, all well, the 13th of Aug. The Commodore, with the principal part of the squadron, failed immediately to join Commodore Preble, near Tripoli. We have made a short cruise off the South Coast of Morocco, and were off the city of Salée the 20th. 21st and 22d ult. found lying there 3 ships of war, viz. the Momona of 32, the Mamona of 32, the Maboukir or 22 guns; the last is the ship that was captured by the Philadelphia, and afterwards given up at Tangiers. The appearance of our last squadron has induced the Emperor of Morocco to relinquish his hostile designs against the United States. The decisive and spirited measures of Commodore Preble have compelled the Bey of Tunis to be at peace; but our affairs with Tripoli, remain unsettled. Our squadron will however, immediately appear before that place, in complete order, with the addition of several Schooners 2 bomb ketches, and 6 boat gun-boats; these last have been procured by Commodore Preble. We sail in the morning to join the squadron before Tripoli, taking in our route the Barbary coast.”
In the mad-house of Aix-la-Chapelle, is an insane man, whose madness has been subject to surprising and periodical changes. He has been shut up there for fifteen years. For the three first years he never spoke a word but was continually silent. During the three following he seldom ceased to speak either night or day. Afterwards he laughed for three years, and in such a violent manner, that he often fell into convulsions. When this period was over, he began to whistle from morning to night, and from night to morning, so that many persons apprehended, that the want of rest must kill him. It will soon be three years since he began to cry in such a manner, that he has already lost the sight of one eye, and should he not leave it off, he must probably in a short time be entirely blind. He is thirty-five years of age, but looks as if he had passed three score and ten. His only food for these last fifteen years has been, in every 24 hours, two small slices of bread, and his only drink two glasses of water.
Prince and Princess Jerome Bonaparte. The Federalists appear determined to make these gentry of consequence, whether they merit it or not—they have shipped Jerome to Europe as often as the British killed Napoleon, yet he remains amongst us even to this day. Last week the Baltimore Federalist had him at the Theatre, on the same day he was announced in Philadelphia to have been shipwrecked at the capes of Delaware, and in New-York Solomon Lang protests, he had been on board
the French frigates, for a week and had sailed for Europe. The truth is that Jerome has been for above a week in this city visiting some of our titularies of the dignities.
Aurora.  We are informed that the message of the president was accompanied by various documents of importance, among which were,   1. Extract from a communication from Don Pedro Cevallos, intimating that the King of Spain had withdrawn his opposition to the cession of Louisiana by France to the United States.  2. A letter from the Marquis Cat. Yrujo, accompanying the foregoing communication.  3. A proclamation of the President U. S. determining Fort Stoddert to be the port of entry in the District of Mobile, in Eastern Louisiana.  4. A report concerning the lead mines in Louisiana. 
PHILADELPHIA, November 12.  By capt. Gilder from Cape-Francois, we have the following melancholy account:—The humanity of captain Gibson, of the pilgrim, having induced him to take on board some French whites, who wished to escape the dreaded cruelty of the blacks, they were missed; the whole fleet under the convoy of the Pilgrim, brought too by the fort, and a general search took place, when the blacks discovered the above passengers on board the Pilgrim, on which they took the capt. Robert Tate, first mate and the thirteen passengers on shore; immediately on their landing they hung Mr Tate and two of the French passengers on the Public Wharf. Capt. Gibson was ordered to be shot, but the corporal who was ordered to shoot him; making some delay by refusing to do it without the orders of his commander, gave time for the interception of some Americans and the captain's life was saved.
By the ship Clyde, Captain Dekoven, in 39 days from Cadiz, we have received the following interesting particulars:  The fever at Malaga continued to rage with unabated violence. From 300 to 400 died daily: and above 30,000 are stated to have fallen by that destructive malady. Out of a population of between 40 and 50,000 inhabitants, only 10,000 are remaining in Malaga.
The fever had also reached Gibraltar; which place was shut against the admission of all vessels. Vessels approaching that fortress were ordered away.  The fever had also began at Cadiz; where from 70 to 80 died daily, and was encreasing.
Gen. Moreau was still at Cadiz. One of his servants had been attacked by the fever; and he was preparing to leave it for Grenada. It was doubted however, whether he would be permitted to go; as all persons were prohibited from leaving the city. Madame Moreau had been brought to bed of a daughter.  Mr. Goetschius, Consul for the United States at Genoa, died at Cadiz about the 25th of September.  Flour was from 13 to 14 dollars a barrel at Cadiz—Staves 150 to 160 dollars—Rice 7 dollars—Beef and pork very low.  Three or four days before the Clyde failed, the United States frigate Essex, Captain Barron, kept at Cadiz to obtain information respecting the movements of the Moorish frigates, which had failed for Lisbon. The object of the Moors was said to be nothing more than to go to Lisbon to stopper. Captain Barron hearing this returned to his station.
The fct'ly Polly, Captain Buch, which went to Montog to meet the British ships of war Leander & Cambrian, returned last evening. By her we learn that the above ships arrived within seven leagues of Montog on Saturday evening, and would have seen the Frenchmen go out on Sunday morning, had the weather been clear. The Frenchmen have thus (to use a seaman's phrase) made their escape in a fog. The Leander and Cambrian anchored in New port harbour on Tuesday night, and failed the next morning for Halifax where the Polly left them.
Captain Cobb, who arrived at Boston on Friday, in 25 days from Berbice, informs, that the coffee crop was entirely cut off, owing to the long dry season, and the rainy season setting in severely. Estates that used to produce 200,000 lbs. of coffee, will not this year produced 10,000 lbs. The produce has yet to grow that they intend to ship to meet the bills they pay Americans in. The Governor had refused to let them take away produce for those bills which have come back protected.
SHELBYVILLE, Nov. 17. Died, in this town, on Friday mor-
ning 1st, Mr. Charles M'Gaughey, aged 21 years, son of Col. John M'Gaughey, of this town. What appears more singular in the death of this young man is, that he lived to see the age of 21 years to an hour.
ST. ANDREW'S SOCIETY.  At their anniversary meeting, will be held at Mr. Willson's tavern on Friday next, both inst. Members are requested to be punctual in their attendance at 12 o'clock—Dinner to be on the table at 3 o'clock.  By order of the President. W. Macbean, Sec. Lexington, Nov. 26th, 1804.

He also returns his sincere thanks to his friends and the public in general for past favors, since he commenced business in this place; and in confirmation of his friendship and high esteem, will close business in giving good bargains.

FIVE DOLLARS REWARD.  RAN AWAY from this place, on yesterday morning, a bound Boy, named DAVID HARDY, about 15 or 16 years of age, low in stature, fair hair; he had on a tow linen Hunting Shirt and Overalls of a reddish color, but will probably change the Hunting Shirt, as he took with him, a striped cotton Round about Coat, which was rather too large for him—is as also likely he will change his name. Whoever will apprehend said Boy, and deliver him to Mr. James Borty or Mr. Charles Hamilton, Scott County, shall have the above reward.  Alexander Hamilton.

TO SOAR ALOFT ON FANCY'S WING.  From the Port Folio.  The following verses, were written by an American prisoner at Tripoli; a marine, whose extraordinary merit has attracted the attention and notice of all the officers; his name is Ray; he has once been in very good circumstances, but misfortunes have brought him low, and obliged him to enter on board a man of war, in the capacity of a private in the marine corps.
ELEGY  ON THE DEATH OF WILLIARD.  Hilliard, of painful life bereft, Is now a slave no more; But here no relative has left, His exit to deplore.  No parent—no fond brother stands, Around his clay-cold bed: No wife, with tender, trembling hands, Supports his dying head.
No sister follows, or attends, His melancholy bier; Nor from a lover's eye descends, The soft distilling tear:  But foes, and of a barb'rous kind, Surround him as he dies; A horror to his fainting mind, And to his closing eyes.
What tho' no monumental stone Bespeaks a guilty name; By splendid trophies basely won, Damn'd to eternal fame:  Yet if an honest heart he wore— If virtuous paths he trod; He was, in poets' lungs of yore, "The noblest work of God."  His fellow pris'ners strove to cheer His sad, departing soul, And bade the sympathetic tear In free profusion roll.
Mourn not, 'twas Heaven's all wise be- hest, And merciful decree, That gave his weary sorrows rest, And set the captive free.
"Trifles, light as air."
A pert prating lawyer, one day Boasted to the facetious counsellor Costello, that he had received five and twenty guineas for speaking in a certain cause. "And I," said Mr. Costello, "received double that sum for holding my tongue in the same cause."
