The Noted Running Horse, DARE DEVIL, (OR JOHNSON'S COLT.) STANDS in Lexington, near the lower end of Mr. Dodge's rope walk and adjoining Mr. J. Maxwell's field, at the white stable on the late extension of Upper-Street; to be let to mares at ten dollars the season, which may be discharged by the payment of six within the season, twenty-five cents at the stable door.
DARE DEVIL is an elegant deep bay, black legs, mane and tail, full 15 1-2 hands high, was got by the old imported Don Carlos, his dam by old Harmless, his granddam by col. Fitzhugh's noted True Whig. To say more of his pedigree I conceive unnecessary. His colts are large and very elegant, and those that have been tried, are found to be horses of great strength and activity, fine figure and gaiety and have, when grown up, commanded very high prices; Dare Devil is a horse of fine figure, and great gaiety & sprightliness, and certainly possesses the grand requisites either for the turf, saddle or harness; excellent eyes, fine limbs, strong bone, muscular strength and action-equal perhaps to any horse in the United States, as will appear from the following sketch of his performance.
In the fall '97, he won the Jockey Club colt's purse at Lexington; in the fall '98, he distanced the noted running horse Weazle, four miles the heats, at maj. Blackburn's course; the same fall he won a purse at Frankfort, beating several fleet horses; was brought to Lexington the next day by 12 o'clock, notwithstanding the roads were very deep and heavy, was started immediately (without being cleaned) flew the course, leaped a high fence that was put up at a short turn in the course with the intent to keep the horses from flying off the course, was leaped back, saved his distance that heat, and took the purse, two miles the heats, beating col. Babb's noted running stud horse Black Shark, and col. Ribby's Roan. In August '99, he won a quarter race for 100. at Miller's-Town, carrying 200 lbs. to a catch, beating col. Buckner's mare, a noted quarter nag; the same year, in September, he received a forfeit of 500 dollars, on a match with the noted running stud horse Alfred, two miles the heats; the same fall he won a purse at Danville, two miles the heats; the next week he won a purse at Bairdstown, three miles the heats, beating Black Shark, and distancing the noted horse Gold Wire, one week after walked over the course at Louisville for the the first day's purse. There are a great number of other races formerly run by Dare Devil, which he was successful in, but do not state them lest I might be inaccurate; one however I am informed of by Mr. Gatewood—a purse race, the heats, at George Town, where he more than double distanced the famous running horse Diomedes, which had been kept by Mr. Gatewood. I believe I may say with propriety, that he has run and won more races than any horse that ever run in this state.
The foregoing statement of his pedigree and performance, is impartial and precise, as near as I could ascertain from good authority.
ALSO, The High Bred Race Horse GRAY-SQUIRREL, Stands at the same place, to be let to mares at 5 dollars the season, which may be discharged by the payment of three within the season. Twenty-five cents at the stable door. GRAY-SQUIRREL was got by the famous full bred horse Eolus, out of Capt. Prior's noted running gray mare Cade; her performance on the turf in Kentucky, is well known, she won six purse races in one season.
Gray-Squirrel was started at 3 years old, for a purse at Nicholasville, he won the first heat easy, but lost the race by an accident of running against a stump. At 4 years old he won a match race, single three miles, over the Lexington track, against col. Sanders's famous horse Albert, for 500 dollars, and won the race with ease. The same fall he won a purse at the Forks of Elkhorn, from several good horses. He is of a large and excellent running family of horses. N. BURROWES. Lexington, March 8.
N. B. Good pasturage for mares at a moderate price, and every attention paid to them, but will not be liable for accidents or escapes.
P. S. Such mares as did not stand to the horse last season, and have not been transferred, may have a leap gratis.
FOUND, ON Saturday evening, an old fashioned SILVER WATCH—the owner can have it by applying to Mr. S. Ayres. March 24, 1806.
The high bred English stallion, DION,
WICH was imported from London in the fall of 1801, by the late John Hoomes esq. of the Bowling Green, and is remarkable for his fine colts; he was bred by W. Garforth esq. of Yorkshire, and is undoubtedly a horse of fine blood as any in England; he was a good racer, and beat several of the best horses in that kingdom. He won a sweep-stake at York August meeting, nine subscribers, 50 guineas each, beating Mr. Wilton's colt by Eclipse, lord Fitz William's bay colt by Walnut, Mr. Wilson's colt by Eclipse, Mr. Pierse's bay colt by Spadille, Sir C. Turner's colt by Eclipse. In 1800 he won the stand plate at York, free for all ages, beating the famous horse Jonah. The same year he ran over the York course (4 miles) with Hambletonian, for the great subscription, and although the greatest exertion was made by the rider of Hambletonian, yet he beat Dion only the neck, and actually refused to run with him for the gold cup at Doncaster, a few days after, which Dion won with the greatest ease, beating lord Darlington's bay colt Hap-Hazard by Sir Peter Teazle, lord Fitz William's brown filly Fanny, by do. Sir Harry Vane Tempest's bay colt by Walnut. Dion at another time beat Mr. Cooklin's Sir Harry, and Sir Thomas Galtcoigne's Timothy, and several other horses of high repute, and was considered a horse of great speed and bottom, for his racing (in almost every instance) was 4 miles.
DION, now riding 11 years old, full fifteen hands two inches and a half high, a fine bay, with great strength and beauty, and has probably the best feet, legs, back and quarters that were ever combined in one horse; stands this season (which will commence the 20th of March and end the first of August) at Madison court house, and be let to mares at 12 dollars the single leap, paid in hand, 24 dollars the season (four dollars of which will be remitted if paid by the 20th of December next) 40 dollars to insure a mare with foal, and one dollar to the groom in every instance, paid when the mare is covered. Good beef-keepers on foot, weighing not less than 400 delivered the first week in August, good fat pork on foot, delivered the 1st week in October; inspected crop tobacco, delivered at any ware house on the Kentucky river, and merchantable hemp, delivered either at Madison court house or Lexington by the 20th of December, will be received in payment, at the cash market price when delivered—a promissory note for 24 dollars the season, and 40 for insurance must be sent with the mares—should those mares insured not prove with foal, and the property not altered, the money will be returned. Good pasturage found gratis for mares coming from more than 12 miles distance, and those gentlemen who with their mares fed, may have it done at three shillings per week.
Both the horse and mares will be under the direction of E. Faulkner and Henry Banton. WM. T. BANTON.
PEDIGREE.
DION was bred by W. Garforth esq. and was got by Spadille, one of the best sons of Highflyer; his dam Faith by Pooley, a grandson of the Godolphin Arabian; his grand dam, the famous Alcantara, by Old Matchem, out of Lass of the Mill. Oronook, Old Traveller, sister to Clark's Lass of the Mill, Mr. Holme's Miss Makelefs, by Grey Hound; Old Partner, Woodcock, dam of Lambton, Miss Doe, Croft's Bay Barb, grand dam of the Ancestor Starling, Makelefs, Demon's dam, Brimmer, Dicky Pierfon, son of Dowlsworth, out of the Burton Barb mare. This pedigree was taken from the general stud book of England. JOHN HOOMES.

The famous and complete Horse, STIRLING, Never beaten but once, and then by accident.
WAS imported from London by the late John Hoomes esq. of the Bowling Green, and extraordinary to relate, he won a King's plate at four years old, and another at five. He was considered while running, by Mr. Weatherby, the author of the racing calendar, and clerk of the course at New-Market, (as will appear by a letter from that gentleman) to be, if not the first, undoubtedly the second horse in England. The celebrated horse Hambletonian (supposed by some to be his superior, and the first horse then on the British turf,) paid him a forfeit of 500 guineas, on a match over the Beacon course, [4 miles 1 furlong and 138 yards] for 1000 guineas; Stirling was among the best racers that ever appeared in England; having won eleven races out of twelve, and when beaten, was undoubtedly the best horse that started, as he ran considerably off the course, and even then came in third.
STIRLING is a most beautiful bay horse, and descended from the best stock in England, as will appear from his pedigree below: he is upwards of fifteen hands and a half high, in very high form, extremely gay, with great strength and activity, and is a most capital stallion. Perhaps it may not be amiss to observe, that Stirling's racing was generally four miles, and with the best horses then on the turf: and in order to prove him a horse of great speed, I beg leave to refer the gentlemen of the turf, to the sixth volume of the Sporting Magazine, page 304 and 305, where speaking of the velocity of the Barb horses, and comparing them with the English horses, the following extract follows in page 304: "It is accordingly said, that the famous running horse Stirling, sometimes ran the first mile (of the New-Market course) in one minute, which is at the rate of 82 feet and a half in a second, an inconceivable swiftness, even supposing it a little exaggerated, as it is probable it was, but for further satisfaction, we find it confirmed by Dr. Maty. If such a velocity had continued some seconds, it might have been fairly pronounced, that the horse went swifter than the wind, it being very seldom that the most violent wind makes such way: the greatest known velocity of a ship at sea, is six marine leagues in an hour, and supposing the ship to take the third of the velocity of the wind which impressed it, the speed of that wind would not amount to 80 feet in a second." The subscriber does not pretend to say but the above account may be exaggerated, yet from a fair construction of the extract taken from the Sporting Magazine, he concludes that Stirling was selected as the fleetest horse in England, to compare his speed with that of the Barb horses.
In 1794, Stirling then three years old, won a match of 100 guineas each, at Ascot, beating Mr. Crosbey's Victor (this was the first time he started.)

MURDER.
Through the politeness of a gentleman of the bar, on whose accuracy we rely, we have been favored with the following impressive and eloquent sentence, passed on the inhuman and brutal SLATER, on Monday last, by judge Wilds; which we have pleasure in communicating to the publick, as doing no less honour to his head, as a sound and able judge, than to his heart, as a virtuous and humane man.
JOHN SLATER.
You have been convicted by a jury of your country, of the wilful murder of your own slave; and I am sorry to say, the short, impressive, uncontradicted testimony, on which that conviction was founded, leaves but too little room to doubt its propriety.
The annals of human depravity might be safely challenged for a parallel to this unfeeling, bloody, and diabolical transaction.
You caused your unoffending, unresisting slave, to be bound hand and foot, and by a refinement in cruelty, compelled his companion, perhaps the friend of his heart, to chop off his head with an axe; and to call his body, yet convulsing with the agonies of death, into the water! And this deed you dared to perpetrate in the very harbor of Charleston, within a few yards of the shore, unblushingly in the face of open day. Had your murderous arm been raised against your equal, whom the laws of self defence, and the more efficacious laws of the land unite to protect, your crime would have seemed less horrid—Your personal risk would at least have proved, that to a murderer, you were not a coward. But, you, too well knew that this unfortunate man, whom chance had subjected to your caprice, had not, like yourself, chartered to him by the laws of the land, the sacred rights of nature; and that a stern, but necessary policy, had disarmed him of the rights of self defence:—Too well you knew, that to you alone he could look for protection; and that your arm alone could shield him from oppression, or avenge his wrongs; yet, that arm you cruelly stretched out for his destruction.
The counsel, who generously volunteered his services in your behalf, flinched at the enormity of your offence, endeavoured to find a refuge, as well for his own feelings as for those, of all who heard your trial, in a derangement of your intellect. Several witnesses were examined to establish this fact; but the result of their testimony, it is apprehended, was as little satisfactory to his mind, as to those of the jury, to whom it was addressed. I sincerely wish, this defence had proved successful; not from any desire to save you from the punishment which awaits you, and which you so richly merit; but from the desire of saving my country from the foul reproach of having in its bosom so great a monster.
From the peculiar situation of this country, our fathers felt themselves justified in subjecting to a very slight punishment, him who murders a slave: Whether the present state of society requires a continuation of this policy, so opposite to the apparent rights of humanity, it remains for a subsequent legislature to decide. Their attention would long ere this, have been directed to this subject, but for the honour of human nature, such hardened sinners as yourself are rarely found, to disturb the repose of society. The grand jury of the district deeply impressed with your daring outrage against the laws, both of God and man, have made a very strong expression of their feelings on the subject, to the legislature; and from the wisdom and justice of that body, the friends of humanity may confidently hope, soon to see this blackest in the catalogue of human crimes, pursued with appropriate punishment.
In proceeding to pass the sentence which the law provided for your offence, I confess, I never felt more forcibly the want of power to make respected the laws of my country, whose minister I am. You have already violated the majesty of those laws—You have profanely pleaded the law under which you stand convicted, as a justification of your crime—You have held that law in one hand, and brandished your bloody axe in the other, impiously contending, that one gave a license to the unrestrained use of the other.
But, though you will go off unhurt in person, by the present sentence, expect not to escape with impunity. Your bloody deed has set
a mark upon you, which, I fear, the good actions of your life will not efface. You will be held in abhorrence by an impartial world, and shunned as a monster by every honest man—your unoffending posterity will be visited for your iniquity, by the stigma of deriving their origin from an unfeeling murderer, your days, which will be but few, will be spent in wretchedness—and, if your conscience be not seared against every virtuous emotion—if you be not entirely abandoned to hardness of heart; the mangled, mutilated corpse of your murdered slave, will ever be present in your imagination; intrude itself into all your amusements, and haunt you in the hours of silence and repose.
But, should you disregard the reproaches of an offended world; should you bear, with callous insensibility, the gnawings of a guilty conscience; yet remember! I charge you remember! That an awful period is fast approaching, and with you is close at hand, when you must appear before a Tribunal, whose want of power can afford you no prospect of impunity; when you must raise your bloody hands at the bar of an impartial, omniscient Judge!—Remember!—I pray you remember! whilst you yet have time, that God is just, and that his vengeance will not sleep forever.
THE SHORT WAR.
It required a war of thirty years to bring about the treaties of Westphalia, and reduce the House of Austria within bounds of moderation, and toleration. The same country has been now reduced to the most humiliating state, in less than half as many weeks—Look at the line of march. On September the fifteenth, the Austrians entered Bavaria; levied contributions; assumed the government; incorporated the Bavarian burghers in the Austrian line; forced the Elector to fly to Suabia.
On the eighth of October, the German Emperor was at Munich; but in three days he was again at Vienna.
On the first of October, the French crossed the Rhine.
On the fifteenth they took Ulm.
On the twentieth, they entered Munich.
On the 2d of November, they defeated the Russians on the Inn.
On the 9th the German Emperor fled to Brunn.
On the 11th the French defeated the Russians near Krems.
On the fifteenth, they entered Vienna; that is in about 60 days after the German Emperor had entered Bavaria, elated and flushed with an assurance of triumph, because unresisted.
On the 15th also, the German Emperor fled from Brunn to Olmutz.
On the 18th he fled again to Troppau, and thence to Cracow, in ancient Poland—memorable lesson and reproach—compelled to seek refuge in the nation of which, he had participated in the plunder.
The French conqueror, after having pacified Hungary, placed Upper and Lower Austria under a French police; established a national guard, under French and Bavarian officers, with a force levied in Germany, and paid by Germany of 80,000 men—
Pursued his route to Znaim, where one of the bulletins is dated—and thence to Brunn; which he entered unopposed; and has occupied & fortified by a French garrison.
Znaim is 35 miles S. S. W. of Vienna, 58 S. W. of Olmutz.
Olmutz is 80 miles N. N. E. of Vienna, on the Moravia river; 116 E. S. E. of Prague in Bohemia; and 162 S. E. of Dresden in Saxony—it is a strong place, memorable for being the prison of Lafayette, and for a blockade, by the great Frederick, in 1744—it is the true capital of the Marquisate of Moravia; though that distinction is sometimes given to
Brnn, the second town in Moravia, on the confluence of two rivers, Schwartz and Surlawa; it is defended by a strong regular fortification, in an elevated position, called the great Speilberg, which baffled the great Frederick, in the next year after the blockade of Olmutz, from which place it is distant about 32 English miles, in a S. W. direction, 100 miles from Prague, and 156 from Dresden.
Cracow is on the Vistula, and was once the capitol of Poland; Kotsiusko drove the Russians out of this city in 1794, but being called to the relief of Warsaw, 128 miles distant, it capitulated to the Prussians on the 15th June, of that year—it is 240 miles S. W. of Vienna, and

contiguous to Silesia and to Hungary.
The evidence of the French bulletins, is in itself conclusive—the papers and proclamations of the allied powers, console their blind and unhappy partisans, with tales of victory, which are too woefully belied by the actual flight of the Austrians and Russians, both in Italy and Germany, and the vigorous and successful pursuit by the French—who though they are represented not only as defeated on all sides, appear to have the law, and to seize upon the fortresses, territories and wealth of those whom it is said are their conquerors.
Human folly was never more conspicuous than in the commencement—conduct and delusive hopes, entertained by the combined powers in this war—their infatuated adherents in all countries, appear to be governed by the same evil demon.
Bonaparte is now on the borders of Poland, and he has but to establish that nation, to place his immortality as a soldier, a statesman, and a conqueror, on a basis, that the envy of mankind cannot shake, and will cast whatever of vice or ambition, which has been attached to his character in a dim shade.
It is very probable, that Prussia has after all, entered the field; the infatuated letter of the 14th of October, renders all confidence between that King and that Emperor, hopeless.
The organization of another vast army of 200,000 men in France, the first division of which must have crossed the Rhine early in Jan. & the second and third before the first of February, must have enabled the French conqueror to fix the destiny of every prince and nation on the European continent, from the Gulf of Finland to the mouth of the Bog—From Otranto to the Pillars of Hercules, and from Cape St. Vincent to Cattegat—Every harbour, river and port, and roadstead in that vast range, are destined to obey his fiat, without being embraced in the actual circle of his empire.
Such has been the effect of regal infatuation—in the effort to destroy the liberties of a nation, and thro' that nation to protract the emancipation of mankind, from abject dependence on the miserable reptiles, called Kings and Emperors, and Princes and nobles—they have created a scourge for themselves—they formed a weapon of their own shape, and with an edge that swoops upon them, as the Eagle upon its dismayed prey.

FROM THE BOSTON PALLADIUM.
FOREIGN AFFAIRS.
We have been favoured with a file of Cobbett's Political Register to the 21st December. This paper is now the most spirited and zealous anti-ministerial print, published in London. The Editor does not appear to have any confidence in any intelligence unfavourable to France; after endeavouring to lessen the faith of the public in the bulletin of the British Government, dated on the 17th of December, [which has been printed in Boston,] he proceeds to give another bulletin, from the same source, issued on the 19th of that month; and attacks it as he did the former.
FROM COBBETT'S REGISTER, Dec. 21.
The government bulletin of the 19th, was much of the same stamp as the former. All boasts; but that hearsay sublimated into official authenticity by the manner of communicating it to the public.
“Official advices from Hamburg, of the 13th, state, that an Elsatette passed through that town on the 13th, from Berlin, bearing the details of the battle between the allies and the French in Moravia. The event was not accurately known to his majesty's minister at Hamburg, but he learned, that tho' the centre of the allies was defeated on the 2d, they had renewed the battle on the 3d, and that it lasted during the whole of the 4th, and probably into the 5th; and that the tide of success turned completely in far enough in all confidence; and favour of the Russians. Nothing could exceed the enthusiasm of joy at Berlin, on learning that the Emperor ALEXANDER was safe, after displaying the most transcendent heroism. Government have also received advices from a respectable quarter, detailing many particulars, the sum of which seems to be, that on the 2d the French attacked the allies on their march—that they directed their whole efforts against the centre, which not being formed
when the attack commenced, they succeeded in defeating, after a bloody conflict of several hours, in which the centre lost the whole of its cannon; that the allies retreated from the field to Wischnau, and did not seem to have been followed by the French, so that the Emperor ALEXANDER, who had displayed the most determined courage on the 2d, renewed the battle on the 3d and 4th; and by his ardent fortitude and example, turned the fortune of the contest in favour of the Russians. He rode through the most tremendous fire, calling out to the army, “victory or death!” which was returned by exclamations from his troops, that “they never would forsake their Emperor.” The Russians having lost their artillery on the 2d, were, during the following days, ordered to fight with the sword and bayonet, and the final result was, that the Emperor recovered all his cannon, and the whole ground he had lost. The French were driven from the field, beyond Außerlitz, [where the battle of the 2d commenced,] and afterwards retired behind the Swartza, with their left at Brunn, and their right at Nicholfsberg. No details have been received of killed and wounded on either side.”
COBBETT'S REMARKS.
This, if true, is very pleasing intelligence; and when so much of detail is given, one would hardly suppose it possible to be false, tho' coming out of Whitehall, had we not already read the bulletin of the 17th, of the better part of which, this last bulletin contains a contradiction. Who would have thought from the bulletin of the 17th, that the battle of the 2d had been fought at Wischnau, and that the allies remained on the field of battle? It now appears, however, that the battle of the 2d was begun at Außerlitz, and that the allies retreated to Wischnau, a distance of about ten English miles. The story of the 27,000 French killed, of Bonaparte's being wounded, and of his proposing an armistice, is completely contradicted by this second official bulletin; and, it is impossible not to receive even its contents with great distrust, when we find it acknowledging that the allies were defeated on the 2d, when the bulletin of the 17th had represented them to have obtained a victory. The battle of the 2d ended in “a victory;” but it being impossible to keep up the belief of that for any length of time, it is, in the next bulletin, allowed to have been a defeat; but at the same time, it is asserted, that the allies have now got a victory.
The account of the battles of the 3d and 4th, rest, as far as the intelligence goes, upon the report of an Esstafette, who, in all likelihood, knew what would please the person to whom he made his report. Allowing his report to have been correct, I really cannot see that much has been gained by the allies, except in reputation. That indeed, is a great deal—To have fought at least; barely to have fought at the end of a retreat, or rather running away of five hundred miles, across rivers, & through fortified places, more numerous than are the battalions in the army of their enemy, is a good deal. They have fought, and renewed the fight with stiff wounds; they have, at last, drawn the blood of their antagonists. This looks well. It is a rational ground for hoping, that we shall hear of something more. But here seems to be the utmost extent of the advantage: for as to have beaten the French, there is, all the intelligence fairly considered, not the least appearance of it; the French army, according to this last bulletin of our government, being pulled precisely where it was previous to the battle of the 2d. Not an inch have they retreated; and I must hear of something much more resembling a victory over them, before I shall expect to hear, that they have made one step towards Vienna. Suppose, however, that Napoleon were to be compelled to retreat, must we, therefore, conclude that he is ruined? How would this reasoningsuit, if applied to his enemies? They, God knows, have retreated far enough in all confidence; and yet we are told, that their affairs are in a very promising way.—Aye, but they have been retreating thro' their own territory. So, then, Napoleon has only to get them to follow him into France, and through Paris, in order completely to annihilate them! Away with all the nonsense about his being bemmed in? The “great armies,” we are told, to wit: the Austro-Russian and Prussian army, and the army of
the archduke Charles. As to the Prussian army, if it has really marched, there is Angereau ready to meet it in Suabia or Bavaria, or to follow him into Bohemia, if it marched towards Napoleon's position. Angereau has 60,000 men, and his army, from its nearness to France, is easily augmented. The Archduke! Where is he? The last we heard of him was in Croatia, more than 200 miles from the scene of action, between Napoleon and his antagonists. He was then flying from Massena; and if the Archduke has, as is reported, 50,000 men, how many must his pursuer have! “The Archduke will come upon the back of Bonaparte through Vienna!” Through Vienna! They are mad. These writers are mad—Massena, the pursuer of the Archduke, was, when we last heard of him, between the Archduke and Vienna! There too was Marmont with his division, “Cut off!” Why Bonaparte had, in the army of Massena, and in the divisions of Marmont and Ney, 100,000 men within seven days march of the spot where the last battle was fought, and he was the complete, nay, the civil ruler of all the country between him and them. By what, or by whom is he to be cut off? He is only 50 miles to the North of the Danube, and to the South of the Danube, Westward from Hungary, there is not one inch of territory upon the continent of Europe, of which he is not master. If I were to hear that he had recoiled as far as Vienna, I should be very much, and indeed, very agreeably surprised; but I should not thence derive much hope of his final failure. He must stop somewhere. It is ridiculous to suppose him to allow himself to be victorious, until he has hunted the enemy quite out of the world; and if it would be a disgrace for him to fall back upon Vienna; what, at this time, must be the reputation of his enemies! They fell back upon Vienna; and they quitted it much more readily, than I fear, he will. At Vienna he would, indeed, see 500 miles distance between him and France; but he would, in the whole 500 miles, see not a single fortress or battalion in his way. The ferocious Gentleman of the Courier must excuse me: For this is really the light in which I see the situation of Bonaparte. I see him with 300,000 soldiers, real soldiers; not upon paper, like my Lord Castlereagh's army, but in the field; actually fighting or marching; and I do not see that all his enemies, all put together, have so many. We hear talk of them before the battles, indeed, but we do not see them in the battles.

“True to his charge— He comes, the Herald of a noisy world, News from all nations humming at his back.” LEXINGTON, MARCH 28.
MARRIED, On Wednesday evening last, by the Revd. James Moore, Danl. Thornbury, Esq. of Bullitt county, to the amiable Miss Agatha Bryan, daughter of Mr. Geo. Bryan, of this county.
WE are still left in suspense relative to the termination of the grand battle between the French and the allied armies. The letter from gen. Berthier, published in our last, relates only to the first day of the engagement, and all the accounts acknowledge that the French were, on that day successful. The observations of Cobbett, in this paper, we conceive are entitled to some notice.
We are informed, (says a New-York paper of Saturday last) that letters are received in town, mentioning, that an unfortunate occurrence lately took place on board of an American frigate in the Mediterranean. A captain of marines is said to have been run through the body with a sword and killed, by an officer of high rank in the navy, for having remonstrated to his superior on the impropriety of his ordering one of the marines to be flogged. (Philadelphia pap.)
Caution.—A lady in this city, a few days since, very nearly lost her life, by burning charcoal in a chafing dish, in a close room. After being a few minutes in the room, she felt unpleasantly, and, opening the door, immediately fell. She remained half an hour in a state of insensibility: when it pleased God to restore her to life. Frequent caution is necessary, to remind people that the vapour of charcoal is extremely noxious: being purely fixed air. (New-London pap.)
GREAT FAILURE. Capt. Meek, lately arrived at Marblehead from Bilboa, reports, that the great French banker, Recamier, had failed for an hundred millions of livres. This man was not more famous for his extensive banking concerns, than for being the husband of the most beautiful woman of the age—Carr in his very entertaining work, “The Stranger in France,” gives some curious and interesting particulars relative to this enchanting woman.

Section 2. Be it further enacted, That all lands shall be rated and classed in the manner following; that is to say, first, second, and third rates; and the rule to be observed is, that when a greater part of any tract shall be superior in quality to second rate land, it shall be denominated first rate; when a greater part of a tract shall be inferior in quality to first rate, and superior to third rate, it shall be denominated second rate; and when a greater part of a tract shall be inferior to third rate land, taking into view the situation and quality of the soil. First rate land shall be taxed at the rate of ninety cents, second rate sixty-five cents, and third rate forty cents, each per hundred acres.
Sect. 3. Be it further enacted, That in all cases where the owners of any lands have, by themselves or agents, entered their lands in their proper classes, with the auditor or clerks of the court of common pleas, agreeably to the laws heretofore in force, such lands shall under this act be placed in the same class for taxation, and all lands which shall not be entered by the owners, or their agents, with the auditor, before he makes out his duplicate, he shall class and charge the same as second rate, and if any owner or proprietor of lands, or their agent, have heretofore, or shall hereafter enter any tract of land in an inferior class to that of its real quality, said land shall (until it is changed into its proper class) be charged, over and above the rate for which it was entered, with double the amount of tax which should have been paid had the same been entered in its proper class; which shall be paid to the collector of the county, township, or district in which such lands may be chargeable, for the use of the state, on the information of any freeholder, making due proof thereof to the auditor or commissioners and be recovered at the same time and in the same way as other taxes are recoverable.
Sect. 4. Be it further enacted, That for the collection of taxes of non-resident's lands the state shall be divided into six collection districts: the first to include the lands purchased by John Cleves Symmes and his associates and the land within the district of Cincinnati land office; the second to include lands in the Virginia military district the land within the district of Chillicothe land office and the French grant; the third to include the land purchased by the Ohio company and all grants included within the limits thereof and the land within the district of the Marietta land office; the fourth to include the lands in the United States military district and the refugee lands and all the lands within the district of Zanesville land office; the fifth to include the lands within the district of the Steubenville land office and all lands south of the Connecticut reserve, and not included in the other districts; and the sixth to include the lands in the Connecticut Reserve.
Sect. 5. Be it further enacted, That there shall be appointed, by a joint ballot of both houses of the general assembly, and commissioned by the governor, a collector in each district, who shall continue in office one year and until his successor is chosen and qualified, who shall collect all taxes due and owing on non-residents' lands within their respective districts. The collector of the first district shall keep his office at Cincinnati; the collector of the second district shall keep his office at Chillicothe; the collector of the third district shall keep his office at Marietta; the collector of the fourth district shall keep his office at Zanesville; the collector of the fifth district shall keep his office at Steubenville, and the collector of the sixth district shall keep his office at the town of Warren, in the county of Trumbull.
