WARM & COLD BATHS.
THE public are respectfully informed, that I have, at considerable expence, in addition to my former Baths, (on a permanent spring on my premises) erected three new Bathing Houses, one of which is solely set apart for the Ladies' use.
The use of Baths, warm and cold, were so general with the ancients, and particularly in warm climates, and the advantages to be derived from them, not only to persons in health as a luxury, but also in various acute diseases, where excretuating pain has been relieved, and sudden death often prevented, by the use of the warm bath alone; as well as the advantages to be derived both to children and persons of mature age, from the use of one or the other, as the faculty may think adapted to their case, will, the subscriber trusts, ensure the countenance and support of the citizens and others to the accomodation, he hopes his baths may afford. Himself and attendants, will, from day-break 'til nine at night, wait on gentlemen; and careful female servants are provided to attend at all times on such ladies as may be pleased to encourage the attempt he has made to add to their convenience and comfort. G. A. WEBER.
N. B. Dr. Buchan, in England, and Count Rumford, a native of our own country, with numerous other writers of eminence, have so fully set forth the advantages of Warm and Cold bathing, that the reading of their works, it is presumed, will be amply sufficient to ensure remuneration to the owner, for the expences incurred in the present undertaking. Persons may pay each time of bathing, or engage for the season. Lexington, 3d June, 1806.

For the Kentucky Gazette.
Citizens, Legislators, Judges, Barristers, and Members of Subordinate Tribunals;
Whilst a considerable portion of my time is occupied in attending to those of but common information, who come with permits to view the penitentiary, within the walls, to which I feel no repugnance; it is with real regret, that I see men of the first information as seldom as I do, and especially those concerned in the administration of justice.
Conscious as I am, that labour is the first price paid for all the wealth of the world, and that he who does
not by a laudable pursuit, learn in labour truly to get his own living, is, if not a robber or thief, at least a swindler, however he may disguise his fraud by pretending inability to collect debts due him, &c. And as a prompt administration of justice between litigants, in civil controversies, is the only corrective of iniquity, and promoter of punctuality; to a strict execution of the laws, which attach punishments to crimes, which are equally necessary to reform the guilty, and deter others from like offences. Every information therefore, from such members of the instituted authorities of my country, who may visit the penitentiary, as may tend to lead me to an exact discharge of the duties of my office, will be thankfully received by me.
SAM. TAYLOR, K. Puy. Peace and happiness celestially descend on him who practiseth justice. Iniquity to one, is justice to all: because one was made for all, and not all for one.
If John Wood is a man of letters, why not live by his learning? Was John Wood like John Adams, to profess a love of republicanism and thereby become President, with intention to produce a monarchy, his conduct would truly deserve reprobation.
The best form of government always depends on public opinion; and public investigation is always necessary to the formation of that opinion. With respect to politics, therefore, men may differ in opinion, and be equally honest. But with respect to right and wrong in our plain dealings, under the law of contracts, such is not the case. Yet we behold those who stand in the front of popularity, i. e. those who give us laws, individually advocating the cause of iniquity, for the love and gain of money; (and that too, in contempt of the supreme law of the land, which requires a speedy administration of justice,) keeping the honest plaintiff out of his right, in the plainest of cases, seven years; and that too, without incurring a single shade of reproach! Upon what ground of reason then, can any one reflect on John Wood, who cares not whether Thomas Jefferson or John Marshall reigns; though he will write for either, if paid for his services.
If it be the object of John Wood to divide the republican interest, in favour of those by whom he is employed; the thing will be the same to him, whether the cause by which the end is obtained, be of one day, or twenty years standing.
Be it said, to the credit of Mr. Wood, that he is ever faithful to the side he takes. His wages therefore, ought to be promptly paid, and his paper given the greatest possible publicity.
If with good intent, we suppress one printing press, what security have the people, that we will not suppress another, with evil intent? No restraint therefore, on public printing, except that imposed by the constitution: "being responsible for the abuse of the liberty."
Before the first number of the Western World made its appearance, tranquility, peace and friendship appeared to pervade Kentucky; but we are now brought to understand, that twenty years ago, Kentuckians lighted torches, to consume by fire, the houses of Kentuckians; and that too, without malicious motives: because they could not discriminate in the contemplated conflagration! that the intended perpetrators of this wonderful paricide, homicide, or suicide, whichever you please to call it, without restraint, declined the intended stroke—who ever since, by their conduct, have proven an invincible attachment to the general good; yet we are called upon to censure and despise them! Yes, citizens, to censure and despise them, who have never eaten the bread, or sipped the cup of Federalism!!
I sincerely hope, my fellow-citizens in general, but especially those who with me, opposed the separation from Virginia, will suspend their opinions, until the whole ground which John Wood is treading, can be fairly viewed.
If Tom Jefferson deserves well of his country, John Randolph deserves no credit for abusing of him.
If republicanism ought to flourish, it cannot be to our purpose to bring forward James Madison and James Monroe at the same time, as President.
If the American people were right in discarding John Adams, because he thought for himself; it must be wrong to support John A-
dir, who has been guilty of a similar conduct, &c.
The greatest possible publicity to the Western World!!!
SAM. TAYLOR.

IN Lexington my friends may find Me working at my trade, At raising stone to suit your mind, Or digging with my spade.
All you that have my stone received And find them not to suit, I'll haul the offals back again, And send a freih recruit.
Great contention long has been, Who can good water find, But I am sure although unseen, For all I am half blind.
I will dig wells you all do know, Good water I can find, In spite of patent laws I'll show, For nought I will be kind.
Good time I have always on hand, Supply'd you all can be, However great is the demand Come friends, come unto me.

LEXINGTON, JULY 26.
The mail which was due this morning, had not arrived when this paper went to press; and we have just been informed, that it will not arrive until to-morrow. On application to the Post-Master, it appears that he knows nothing of the change in the time of arrival, which is talked of. The inconvenience to which the citizens are subjected, by the irregularity of the mail, calls for remedy—It is therefore proposed, that they meet at 6 o'clock this evening, at the house of Mr. Wilson, in order to take such measures, as may appear to them best, for ensuring in future, the regular intercourse with the other parts of the Union, through the medium of the post-office establishment.
The prospects of the crops of corn, are gloomy indeed; owing to the long drought. We have scarcely had one rain during the summer; and we have heard of several fields, which will not probably produce one barrel to the acre. Indeed, although we cannot say, that famine is staring us in the face, yet there is a prospect of greater scarcity, than before known in the State.
Extract of a letter from a gentleman at Detroit, to his friend in New-York, dated June 1, 1806.
"Since my arrival at this place, there have been several reports made to Mr. S. Griswold, our acting governor, by Indian traders from different parts of the country of the frequent secret councils held by the Indians under the pretence of passing laws to oblige their own people to become sober and industrious, by applying their time in improving lands, and living after the manner of the white people; but knowing their practice of dissimulation and treachery, we were suspicious that their meetings, were to concert measures to make an incursion into the country—plunder the inhabitants and then retire. This occasioned a sense of danger to spread amongst the people. But also this time, notice has been given, I fear we have been deficient in providing against the dangers to which from the remote situation of this place we are particularly exposed. The vast extent of the frontiers the scattered situation of the country, make me fear that the inhabitants who are not under the immediate protection of the fort, will find their resistance ineffectual."
"I have deferred writing you on this subject before, for fear of giving an unnecessary alarm, not being sufficiently assured of the truth of the reports—We are now no longer in doubt, that the Indians are preparing to commence war against the United States, and we daily expect an attack at this place. We are well informed that they have an unusual quantity of provision and ammunition in their possession."
"These accounts are corroborated by an express from Fort Wayne (on the Miami) sent by the commanding officer, and the arrival of the brig Adams from Michilimackinac, where the inhabitants were all under arms, and one half on guard every night. Between five and six hundred Indians were assembled on the island when the Adams failed, with great pretensions of friendship—but the commanding officer of that post, has no doubt of their hostile intention, whenever they find themselves sufficiently strong; and well knowing their treachery, he will not trust to outward appearances, but keeps in readiness to defend the fort against any attack they may meditate upon it."
"These circumstances afford cause of the greatest alarm, and we have been in council for these three days, for the purpose of taking every possible defensive precaution, and have at last resolved to build blockhouses in different parts of the territory for the protection of the inhabitants."
"Governor Hull has not arrived—his presence is much wished for at this time, in order to call out the militia on actual duty."

There can be but little doubt, that Bonaparte means to embrace the grand designs of Charlemagne, and Henry IV. of France; to extend the rule of the Franks to the same bounds as the former—and to comprehend all Europe as a federation, under one chief.
It would be amusing, and if we had leisure we should attempt it, to sketch from the history of the present chief of France, the trait of policy and war, in which he has made the heroes of ancient and modern times his models—in his intercourse with his soldiers, he imitates Cæsar and Marius—in his tactics, he combines the knowledge of human nature and fertility of expedient, of Frederick II. with the caution of Cæsar, and the stratagem of Hannibal. The disposition of the French at Austerlitz, was only an improvement upon Hannibal's dispositions at Cannæ, and of the great Conde at Rocroy—The inland navigation system, is that of Charlemagne—and the comparison might be enlarged to a volume.

NORFOLK, June 30.
This morning arrived the brig WHEELER, CAPTAIN BESSON, in 44 days from Liverpool. Capt. B. has favoured us with London papers, from the 1st to the 11th of May, and from our mercantile friends we have received others of cotemporaneous dates.
These papers, we are sorry to observe, contain nothing new or important. Such articles as appeared worthy of notice, will be found in this day's paper.
The trial of Lord MELVILLE was progressing, and was attended by the most distinguished characters of the nation; but by a rule adopted on this occasion, or rather applicable to similar occasions, it is not permitted to publish the proceedings of the Court.
The important subjects before Parliament, are, the Slave Limitation Bill, Defence Bill, and American Intercourse Bill. Sketches of the debates on these measures, will be given in subsequent papers. The latter bill was read a second time in the House of Peers, on the 6th of May, and ordered to be committed on the 8th. In the course of debate, the DUKE OF MONTROSE observed, that he wished the bill to be postponed, as it was certain that negotiations for a more close and intimate connection with the United States, was then depending. Lord Hawkesbury opposed the bill, as he wished to know, what was to be given by America, for concessions in her favour; and which he hoped would be found in the result of the depending negotiations. It does not appear that our prohibitory bill had been received.
We have given our files a careful examination, and do not find that any American vessels have been sent into the British ports.
As the papers which we have received, are silent as to a rupture between France and Denmark, we must discredit that information received from the West Indies.
It appears, that Admiral Lenois had not all his plunder on board when captured.
Our readers will observe, that Captain Whitby is suspended in the command of the Leander; but this has not been in consequence of his recent conduct, accounts of which had not reached London. His removal is nothing more than what is customary on such occasions. The Leander being intended for Admiral Berkeley's Flag ship, he selects his own captain.
There has been some serious misunderstanding between the Porte and Russia; but it has terminated amicably, by a renewal of the treaties between those powers.

"Admiral Villeneuve, who commanded the French fleet at the battle of Trafalgar, and who had been lately debarked at Morlaix from on board an English flag of truce, killed himself in the night, between the 22d and 23d of April. We are entirely ignorant of the cause of this act of desperation. He was found in his chamber, pierced with five wounds, by a knife, in his left side. It is supposed, from the position in which his body lay, that after having stabbed himself, he threw himself on his bed, leaning upon the handle of his knife, that he might thrust it in deeper, and thereby accelerate his death."

AN ELIGIBLE SEAT FOR IRON & OTHER WATER-WORKS.
The undersigned, from his experience in Iron and other water-works, is induced to believe that the mouth of Little river, in Christian county, forms the most eligible seat he has seen:—First, on account of the largeness and constancy of the stream—secondly, the security of the seat, as the dam may be founded on, and abutted against rocks through its whole length—thirdly, navigation, which is practicable at all times to the wharves of the different works—fourthly, the plenitude and quality of the Ore, there being ten or twelve banks of different kinds convenient to the seat—fifthly, the abundance and suitability of timber for the works or ship building—sixthly, the suitability of the surrounding country for the production of wheat, which, independent of the advantages of boating it down the Cumberland from Tennessee, would render a merchant mill valuable. Considerable work is already done at this seat; but as it admits of more extensive objects than the undertaker is able to embrace, he wishes to form a connection capable of prosecuting it into vigorous and extensive operation.
The terms will be advantageous and can be known by an interchange of letters on the subject, with any gentlemen who may choose to adventure, after which the seat can be viewed, and a contract confirmed if thought advisable. EDWARD RUMSEY. Christm. city. K. July 10, 1806. 4w

"TRIFLES LIGHT AS AIR"
GAMING ADVENTURE.
An archbishop of Canterbury making a tour into the country, stopped at an inn for refreshment. Being at a window, he observed at a distance, in a solitary wood, a well dressed man alone, talking, and acting a kind of part.  The prelate's curiosity was excited to know what the stranger was about, and accordingly sent some of his servants to observe him, and hear what he was rehearsing, but they bringing back an answer no ways satisfactory, his grace resolved to go himself. He accordingly repaired to the wood, ordering his attendants to keep at a distance. He addressed the stranger very politely, and was answered with the same civility. A conversation having been once entered into, though not without interruptions by an occasional soliloquy, his grace asked what he was about? "I am at play," he replied. "At play," said the prelate, "and with whom? you are all alone." "I own," said he "sir, you do not perceive any antagonist, but I am playing with God." "Playing with God!" his lordship thinking the man out of his mind, "this is a very extraordinary party, and pray at what game, sir, are you playing?" "At Chess, sir." The archbishop smiled; but the man seeming peaceable, he was willing to amuse himself with a few more questions. "And do you play for any thing, sir?" "Certainly." "You cannot have any chance, as your adversary must be so superior to you!" "He does not take any advantage, but plays merely like a man." "Pray sir, when you win or lose, how do you settle your accounts?" "Very exactly and punctually I promise you." "Indeed! how stands your game?" The stranger after muttering some words to himself, said, "I have just lost it." "And how much have you lost?" "50 guineas." "That is a great sum, how do you intend paying it, does God take your money?" "No; the poor are his treasurers, he always sends some worthy person to receive the debt, and you are at present the purser-bearer." Saying this, he pulled out his purse, and reckoning fifty guineas, put them into his grace's hand, and retired, saying, he should play no more that day.
The prelate was quite fascinated; he did not know what to make of this extraordinary adventure, he viewed the money, and found all the guineas good, recalled all that had passed, and began to think there was something more in this man than he had discovered. However, he continued his journey, and applied the money to the use of the poor, as he had been directed.
Upon his return he stopped at the same inn, and perceiving the same person again in the wood, in his former situation, he resolved to have a little further conversation with him, and went alone to the spot where he was. The stranger was a comely man, and the prelate could not help viewing him with a kind of religious veneration, thinking by this time, that he was inspired to do some good in this uncommon manner. The prelate accosted him as an old acquaintance, and familiarly asked him how the chance stood since they last met. "Sometimes for me, and sometimes against me, I have both lost and won." "And are you at play now?" "Yes, sir, we have played several games to-day." "And who wins?" "Why, sir, at present the advantage is on my side, the game is just over, I have a fine stroke; check-mate, there it is." "And pray, sir, how much have you won?" "Five hundred guineas." "That is a handsome sum, but how are you to be paid?" "I pay and receive in the like manner; he always sends me some good rich man when I win, and you my lord are the very person." God is remarkably punctual upon these occasions.
The archbishop had received a considerable sum on that day; the stranger knew it, and producing a pistol by way of receipt, the prelate found himself under the necessity of delivering up his cash; and by this time discovered the divine inspired gamester to be neither more nor less than a thief. His lordship had in the course of his journey, related the first part of his adventure; but the latter part he prudently took great pains to conceal.
