Gazette of the United States.
PHILADELPHIA,
WEDNESDAY EVENING, AUGUST 6.
For the Gazette of the UNITED STATES.
MR. WAYNE
WAS it not enough, for the gratification of his Excellency's resentment, to insult those, who did not vote for him, with the most opprobrious Epithets?
Was it not enough to trample upon the first principles of good government, by insinuating that attachment to the Executive of the United States, implied an enmity to Republicanism?
Was it not enough to put common decency at defiance by giving distinguished military commands to one man notorious as a chief of Insurrection, and to another who was hurled from the bench of Justice for aiding the greatest robber Pennsylvania ever knew?
Was it not enough to stain a higher bench of Justice, by the fear of a man who first fomented rebellion, and then saved himself by accepting the proffered amnesty; a man who boasted of his endeavours to persuade the Insurgents at Braddock's field to attack the garrison of Pittsburg, and who had the face to execute his treason by declaring that his intention was to push them on to destruction "for he knew they would be defeated with slaughter;" a man who glories in duplicity, and least the sparks of his licid pollution should be confined to the ordinary existence of putridity, has, by a book, damned himself to everlasting fame?
Was it not enough thus to put virtue to the blush, to make a mockery of republican principles, to fill the cup of our humiliation to the very brim; but must he make it run over?
Was not the floating infamy of the times sufficient, but must the records be searched for a convict to sit in the sacred seat of justice?
Poor Pennsylvania! once the brightest star in our constellation—How art thou fallen!
The pueril excuse said to be written by the Governor's son, may serve to satisfy the humble slaves who are devoted to his Excellency, for their capacious throats may swallow a whale. But I will venture to say, that there is no man in the whole state more sensible of the puerility of this excuse, than the Governor himself, for to suppose otherwise, would be to suppose the late Chief Justice of Pennsylvania an idiot.
Every Commission for the Peace runs thus—
"Know you that reposing especial trust and confidence in your integrity, judgment and abilities, I appoint," &c. &c.
The especial trust and confidence which is to be placed in the integrity of the new Justice, is to be found on the records of a criminal court, where he stands convicted by twelve good and true men of the vice age of LARCENY. But, says the Governor, an alibi was proved;—where and when? why before the jury who found him guilty. Now if this be true, I do not hesitate to say that these twelve good and true men were twelve perjured scoundrels; but to swallow this, one must be able to swallow twelve whales at least. I will now suppose however, that the credulity of Mr. McKean may have been imposed upon, and so far as he acts as an individual, he may trust this man as much as he pleases; but the Governor is bound by law, and must respect proof; he is not at liberty to throw aside legal evidence, especially where it forbids "trust and confidence." The constitution points out several disqualifications for offices, and I may be told this is not among them; but was it necessary to say that a convicted thief is disqualified from being an administrator of Justice?—Would the late Chief have admitted a man convicted of perjury to be produced as a witness? Would he allow an overman in his favor against a record?
Lord Chief Baron Gilbert, in his analysis of evidence, states the first degree of moral demonstration to be LEGAL CERTAINTY, and the first degree of legal certainty is matter of record. And, speaking of records (1 Law of Evidence, p. 7) he says, "These are memorials of courts of justice, and are authentic beyond all manner of contradiction. They are the proper diagrams for the demonstration of right, and they do constantly, preserve the memory of the matter, that it is ever obvious and permanent to the view, and to be seen at any time, in all certain y of demonstration, inasmuch as the record can never be proved PER NOTORIA; for a demonstration is only appealing to a man's own clear conceptions, which can never be done with more conviction than when you draw the consequence from what is already concessum; and, consequently, there can be no greater demonstration to a Court of Justice, than an appeal to its own transactions. Monumenta publica portiora sunt testibus."
I do not know this man, and have no pleasure in thus exposing his patron; but I confess the plea of innocence is in my mind much injured by thus submitting an old force to be proved, when it might have been apparently healed by the covering of future good conduct. Innocence is allied to modesty; but in the present case, if any thing could exceed the scandal of giving the commission, it must be the impudence of taking it.
I know of at least one Justice of the Peace who felt this indignity so much, as to determine to throw up his commission, from which he desired only upon the suggestion that it would make another vacancy to be improperly filled; but although the Governor may make whom he pleases, he cannot force the company of his favorites upon others, and I hope for the honor of the commission that no justice will be found sitting upon the same bench with this distinguished character.
It will be incumbent on the new made justice to behave with respect and attention to all thieves who may be brought before him, for should he happen to offend one, he may be honored with a fraternizing epithet. The law has taken great care of the dignity of a magistrate, by giving him power to punish, in a summary way, any offence to his person; but our bill of rights declares, that in certain prosecutions "the truth of the matter may be given in evidence." Should the new justice therefore, commit a fellow for calling him a thief, the man might justify by the record, and demand damages for false imprisonment!
INDIGNATION.
On Saturday evening, the humanity of a gentleman was attracted to six houseless strangers, whom hard fate had necessitated to seek their night's lodging on the comfortable stalls of our market place.
Enquiry convinced him they were subjects of compassion, and his active humanity took such measures as, we are happy to state, has ensured them an asylum in our Almshouse, until some effectual mode for their relief shall have been determined on. They came to this city from Norfolk, destitute and friendless, in hopes of finding an opportunity of returning to their families and friends, who, probably, mourn them as lost forever. Their artist's tale is best told in the following letter from Mr. Lee to the Mayor of Norfolk.
"The brig Sally, capt. Stone, on the 23d of March last, met an open Portuguese Fishing boat at sea, having on board 13 men, viz, nine of them belonging to the boat, and four passengers, among whom is a secular priest." Capt. Stone, who was on his voyage bound for Norfolk, took them on board and behaved with great tenderness and humanity. This boat failed from the Island Terceira the 18th day of March, bound for the Island Graciosa, distance 18 leagues. During their passage, they met a violent storm, that carried away their mast and sails, and obliged them to throw overboard their cargo. Thus disabled, they were obliged to bear away right before the wind, and the gale continuing from the N. E. Captain Stone found them 38 leagues west of all the Western Islands or Azores; They had no water or provisions except oranges and beans, on which they subsisted five days. They all belong to Graciosa—some of them help is old men from 60 to 70 years old, and sickly. They are all married except two, and very desirous to go home. They are destitute of all the necessaries of life, almost naked, & have no money except what voluntary charity they have received from the charitable good people of Norfolk.
WILLIAM CHARLES LEE. Interpreter. To John Read, Esq. Mayor of Norfolk Borough. * We are happy to learn that Bishop Carroll, of Maryland, has humanely taken this unfortunate Clergyman to his own house.
A Special Meeting of the Pennsylvania Society for Promoting the Abolition of Slavery, &c. will be held at the usual place on the 7th instant, at 7 o'clock in the evening. As business of importance will be brought before the Society, the members are requested to attend punctually. JAMES MILNOR, Sec'y. August 5.

BOSTON, August 6.
Captain Wheatland of the Perfec-tance, po-tely favoured us with Calcutta papers to Feb. 25, from which the following extracts are made.
BOMBAY, December 19.
On Thursday last the following ships sailed from the harbour. Suffolk, admiral Rainer, and La Porte, accompanied by the Prince and Eliza, country ships, bound to the Red Sea, with stores and provisions for the detachment and his Majesty's ships on that station.
On Saturday last a signal was made for a fleet to the westward, which in the first instance gave rise to a number of conjectures, attended in some measure, with a proportionate degree of anxiety; it was however shortly discovered to be part of admiral Blanket's squadron from the Red Sea, and in the evening the following ships anchored in the harbour; his Majesty's ship Leopard, admiral Blanket, Daedalus, Centurion and the Company's Frigate Bombay. The Bombay sailed from Aden on the 6th of October, and the admiral passed the Straits of Babelmandel on the 13th or 14th, they have had a very tedious passage in consequence of the adverse currents, and the crew of the Bombay has been remarkably sickly.
Admiral Blanket had proceeded in the Leopard as high as Judda, and the frigates, as mentioned in a former gazette, to Cofier, which place they completely destroyed, levelling the works with the ground.
January 11.
On Wednesday the 8th instant anchored in this harbour his Majesty's ship Suffolk, vice-admiral Rainer. Previous to anchoring, rear-admiral Blanket complimented the flags of the commander in chief with 17 guns from the Centurion, the number allowed for such an occasion, which was returned in the usual manner.
MADRASS, January 25.
Extract of a letter dated Trincomale, 11th January 1800.
"His Majesty's ship Braave, capt. Alexander arrived here on the 5th inst. from the Red Sea, having on board Gen. Debucq, ambassador from the late Tippoo Sultan to the Directory of France and his suite; and this day the Braave proceeded to Colombo with Mr. Debucq, and the Frenchmen who were taken with him."
CALCUTTA, January 8.
The young emperor of China, Ga Hing, has put to death his prime minister, the great enemy of the English nation, who it is said, had amassed a fortune of seventy millions of tales, exclusive of jewels to an immense amount, all of which the emperor has seized upon.
By the Exeter we learn that a traitorous conspiracy had been discovered at Macao, to have been carried on between some of the Dutch residents there and the government of Batavia, and that Mr. Terins, formerly first in council, and Mr. Ruddy the fiscal, had been sent to Madras on the ships Ganjara and Eliza, as being principally concerned in it.
January 29.
Letters were received on Monday from Madras, dated the 11th instant, announcing the arrival of a small vessel which had been captured by the Clarisse, French privateer, and which captain Soucof had released for the purpose of landing the officers and crew of the American ship Louis, captain Deale, which sailed from hence on the 3d instant, and which he had also captured a few days after she left the pilot.
We have been favoured with the following Extract of a Letter from a Gentleman who was on board the Louis when taken, dated Madras, 12th January, 1800.
"I have just got on shore after a disagreeable passage in a Pariah brig, from near Ganjam. On the 4th instant, in the latitude of Ganjam, we were taken by the French privateer Clarisse, captain Soucof; she boarded us, and, after a severe scuffle, drove our men below;—we injured the privateer very much, in short she was so much disabled that it took her two days to resist before she could proceed on her cruise;—we had three men killed and seven wounded; I believe we killed twelve or fourteen of the French. Captain Deale and our third officer have gone to Mauritius, all the rest of our crew are here, and will come up in the first ship that sails for Calcutta. The Criterion was in company when we were chased by the privateer, and escaped while she was engaged with us."
On Sunday morning last two Lascars were brought to town from the ship Admiral Rainier, charged with having attempted to set that ship on fire, in Saugur Roads—we understand that one of them was caught in the very act of putting a fire brand into a tub of combustibles prepared for the purpose and, upon being immediately tied up and punished, acknowledged that he had been instigated to it by the head Tindal of the ship who had first given him liquor to intoxicate him; afterwards provided him with the fire, &c. We sincerely hope that there may be sufficient evidence of the facts, and that an example may be made of these miscreants, to deter others from a practice which has of late caused such frequent and serious losses.
On the 29th ultimo, departed from Bombay, Captain John Malcolm, on his Embassy to the Court of Persia. Captain Malcolm with his suit, embarked on the Honorable Company's frigate the Bombay, under the salute of the garrison; and the same compliment on their going on board.
The Calcutta Papers by Capt. Wheatland, contain several accounts of valuable captures made by French Privateer, in the Indian Ocean.
CASTINE, (Maine) July 25.
On Friday last as Messrs. Bradstreet Wiggins, Nathan Smith, Peter Smith and Abel Wheeler, were employed in surveying land on Knox's patent, and running a line between Belfast and 25 mile pond settlement, they were fired upon by a number of armed men, who lay concealed in ambush. Mr. N. Smith was very severely wounded in the groin, and is now in this place, under the care of Dr. Mann. Mr. P. Smith and Wiggins were slightly wounded. The number of guns discharged, appeared to be eight or ten. No persons were seen by the surveyors.
RALEIGH, (N. C.) July 29.
By a gentleman from Newbern who attended the trials of the Mr. Blounts, we learn that two bills were found against them, and that they were separately tried on one of the bills and acquitted. The evidence of William Blount and other corroborative testimony, went to show that the frauds were committed by Stockley, Donnelson and William Terrell.
The other bill it is expected will not be tried until next term.

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, Peterboro, 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 superfluous 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, sickness of the stomach and feverish heat, 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 of pains in the face and neck.
Infallible Ague and Fever Drops.
This medicine has never failed, in many thousand cases not one in a hundred has had occasion to take more than one bottle, and numbers not half a bottle. The money will be returned if the cure is not performed.

TO READERS AND CORRESPONDENTS.
"A VISION" shall appear in due time. The Author, like the prophet Hosea, has "used similitudes" and looked at strange things through the telescope of Fancy. Our political Crucifixion in their journey up the "Hill Difficulty," want a BUNYAN to describe both the " Den of Lions ," and the " Slough of Despond ."
"TRISTRAM" has a right to the family name of SIANDY . As we respect this race, we cordially take a descendant by the hand, and propose, some evening this week, to introduce him into public company.
We recommend to the perusal of every sober and moral man the article in the Gazette of to-day, signed INDIGNATION . It exposes with energy the foul deformity of that state of things, where a convicted felon is stationed on the judgment seat. Among other "monstrous and prodigious things" in a state government, the terms " filching judge ," and " innocent criminals ," will soon be current and popular.
No labors of research, and no expense of time and minute enquiry are spared to render our MARINE LIST accurate and copious. All the post papers are daily ran-sacked, and the Coffee-House books are looked into with care and regularity. We have a right to affirm a more detailed and prolix Marine Journal cannot be found in any paper of the United States.
Specimen of French Amity. The brig Polly, Makins, of and from Philadelphia, bound to La Guira, was captured on the 23d May last, in lat. 14 00 N. long. 58 00 W. by three French vessels of war, and sent for Cayenne. The Supercargo was ordered on board one of the Privateers which happily fell in with the Brig Abigail, from St. Ubes, of and for Portsmouth, and enabled him to take his passage. The Abigail has lately arrived at Portsmouth N. H.
The Earl of Leicester, June Packet, has arrived at New-York, from Halifax—the articles published in the Eastern Papers received by this vessel, are false.
An article under the Calcutta head in this days Gazette states the capture of an American ship Louis, by a French privateer,— The Aurora has looked very cloudy for some days. It resembles a farthing candle, more than a beautiful morning. It sheds no light, and its heat, like that of the fashion is dull and malignant. Of this paper the downfall is at hand. Many of the torrents of in-ective which pour from it are shallow and muddy, and like the Tweed in Caledonian Song "Grow drumly and dark as they roll on their way."
Found, by a Jacobin vagrant, one decent paragraph on the anti-federal side. The owner, paying for this advertisement and treating with a bowl of grog, may have his sense and ingenuity again, they being of no use to the advertiser.
A letter from Liverpool, May 28, says, the Union with England and Ireland has not created any impediment to the importation of the produce of the United States. Seth Hastings, Esq. is nominated in the Worcester Gazette, to succeed the Hon. Dwight Foster, as a Representative in Congress. A paper printed at Brookfield, in the same district, proposes Jabez Upham, Esq. Both candidates are Federalists.
The Hon. Jonathan Brace, Esq. has resigned his seat in the Congress of the United States.
Died at Charleston (S. C.) John Rutledge, Esq. Boswell, in his preface to the Life of Dr. Johnson, expresses his opinion in the following manner, of what have been called the Doctor's Tory politics:
His strong, clear and animated enforcement of religion, morality, loyalty and sub-ordination, while it delights and improves the wife and the good, will, I trust, prove an effectual antidote to that detestable sophistry, which has been lately imported from France, under the false name of Philosophy, and with a malignant industry has been employed against the peace, good order and happiness of society, in our free and prosperous country, but, thanks be to God, without producing the pernicious effects, which were hoped for by its propagators."
