O D E, ON THE BIRTH-DAY OF THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES. 1796.
HENCE! pale envy's step profane Hence! foul faction's slanderous tongue, Hence! the heart that knows to feign, Hence, the soul that harbours wrong! Within these joyous walls be found, No hand that gives the secret wound, No breast where ranking vengeance reigns— No son of malice venture here, No voice that dares be insincere, Presume to join our raptur'd strains, To WASHINGTON the notes we raise, Let grateful millions join to praise His deeds of matchless worth: And swell the loud triumphant lay, To celebrate the happy day That gave Columbia's Hero birth. Chorus —Raise the note of rapture high! Echo rend yon arch above! Patriots from the spangled sky Applaud our gratitude and love.
II. Lo! now, to fancy's eyes Wide burst yon azure skies, And from their starry thrones sublime, Columbia's martyr'd Champions bend To hail their Leader and their Friend, Foremost immortal Warren's seen And he who fell among the slain On Abram's snow-clad plain, And He of Eutaw, long lamented Green, And those of ancient days, The great, the brave, of every clime, Who freedom's legions led, The elder Brutus at their head, And Cincinnatus nobly great, Who thrice preserved a falling state, All join Columbia's matchless Son to praise! For millions, snatch'd from foreign chains, Demand from Heav'n and earth the strains, To deeds of noble worth; Then swell the loud triumphant lay, To celebrate the happy day That gave Columbia's Hero birth. Chorus —Raise the note of rapture high! Echo rend the arch above! Patriots from the spangled sky Applaud our gratitude and love.
III. Ah! not to all, the grateful meed To merit due, their country paid! Deserted and forlorn See Scipio bow the exil'd head, No friend to close his languid eyes, His big heart bursts,—he falls—he dies,— Amid the gloom of solitude! The wreaths he pluck'd on Zama's plain Where Carthage bled at every vein, By the rude hands of envy torn, Are blasted,—wither'd—dead— Such, such was Roman gratitude!— Not so Columbia's Sons behave, They venerate the great, the brave! Their Country sav'd on Treason's plain, Demands from them the grateful strain, To deeds of daring worth! Then swell the loud triumphant lay, To celebrate the happy day That gave Columbia's Hero birth. Chorus —Raise the note of rapture high! Echo rend yon arch above! Patriots from the spangled sky Applaud our gratitude and love.
IV. When o'er the western mountain's brow Sedition reard her impious head, And Tumult wild her legions led, Serene and great, the Patriot rose,— Yet in his breast conflicting throes Of mercy, pity, check'd the impending blow. He view'd them with a father's eye, Dimm'd by thy, tear Humanity! Reluctant Justice half unsheath'd the sword! Scar'd at the awful fight Sedition shrunk in realms of night, And Order saw her peaceful reign restor'd. Her trophies wild ambition brings To lay them at the thrones of kings, Or deck the bloodstain'd warrior's brow! More real praise the victors gain Returning from the bloodless plain Than all those crimson wreaths can e'er bestow. A country sav'd from discord's reign, And Order's sway restor'd again, Are deeds of public worth; Then swell the loud triumphant lay, To celebrate the happy day That gave Columbia's Hero birth. Chorus —Raise the note of rapture high! Echo rend yon arch above! Patriots from the spangled sky Applaud our gratitude and love.
V. On broad Ontario's distant shore, The yell of war is heard no more. No more the hostile banners shed Dance on the waves beneath; No more the savage warriors lead Their painted bands to deeds of death! No more on Afric's scorching sand The hapless brethren toil in chains; Soon, soon they'll hail their native land, And here in peace forget their pains. Great Sire of streams from where far north, The Naiads urge their waters forth, To where old Ganges rears his head, Columbia's rising fame shall spread; Respect'd by a friendly world, Where'er her banners are unfurl'd!
His native land restor'd to peace, Her sons confirm'd in wealth and ease, Are deeds of noble worth! Then swell the loud triumphant lay, To celebrate the happy day That gave Columbia's Hero birth. Chorus —Raise the note of rapture high! Echo rend yon arch above! Patriots from the spangled sky Applaud our gratitude and love.
From the FARMER'S WEEKLY MUSEUM. Go thy way, eat thy bread with joy, and drink thy wine with a merry heart.
And where is the fuller mortal, who would refuse to obey so pleasant an injunction as this, coming too on the authority of Solomon? However, as this doctrine at first view, seems to flatter the indulgence of the passions, and therefore to proceed with an ill grace from a moral teacher, let us look narrowly into Solomon's system, and endeavor that wisdom may be justified of her children. In one of the most interesting and amusing journals that we find in the bible. Solomon has narrated to us the hopes and fears, which agitated his busy life. Born a monarch, he could exercise supreme power, and a courtier of the mules he acquired the highest wisdom. His city was magnificent, his subjects loyal, commerce wafted him all that was rare from Sidon, and the decks of Tarshish ships glittered with the pageantry of its peacocks. In a situation so favorable to enjoyment, it was natural that he should withhold his heart from no joy, and that the luxury of the East should excite him to refine on pleasure. From his love of letters, his first indulgences were of course mental. He coined the pithy sayings of the Orientals, and fatigued his faculties with the scholastic jargon of many a Rabbi. But soon discovering that he was directing his thoughts through a trackless maze, that if such abstruse disquisitions were too eagerly pursued, wisdom would turn into folly and too much learning make him mad, he resolved to descend from the pinnacle of speculation, and mix with men in the highway of life.—We then hear of his agricultural experiments, the cares of a numerous household, and his public works. Through the dusty deserts of Palestine, he probably conveyed distant water to thirsty subjects and overarched the brook Cedron with numerous bridges. But the restless Prince, when the labors of the day were past, and he communed with his own heart in the inner chamber of the palace found, in reflection's sober hour, that this was a sore travail and vexation of spirit. At length, after numerous experiments on happiness, he drew a formal comparison between the various situations in life. After stating the account of human hope and disappointment, with clerical accuracy, that Folly has a funeral splendid as that of the wise, that the goods of fortune are perishable, and that attained by industry may probably descend to an idler, that the reign of novelty was past, and every object wore the uniform of sameness, he concludes, I think philosophically, by arguing against anxiety and enjoining a moderate participation of festal joys. From various passages, interspersed throughout the volume of our belief, I am persuaded that Christianity was designed to be a cheerful system. Miserable was the perversion of its precepts by those in early time, who believed that none could prove sincere votaries, but the moping and the austere.—It is wonderful that primitive piety, who must be supposed to hold the bible constantly in her hand, should not discern the numerous texts enjoined to sanctify the moderate use of the good things of this world. Not to be too anxious, and to rejoice evermore, are particular precepts of the New Testament. I hope I shall not be accused of thinking like certain philosophers of the sect of the Epicureans, when I frankly acknowledge that I can see no reason to forbid the straight of our religion, eating a dinner with sweet herbs instead of the bitter ones of the paslover. Should such a feast of joy provoke thirst, I shall not deem it an infraction of gospel rules; to indulge him with a little wine. The vineyards of Engedi are no more, but those of France remain, and if a Jewish lawgiver could "tie his colt to the vine, and dip his mantle in the blood of the grape," why may not the sober glass be tinged, and why are grapes given us, unless to be crushed?
THE LAY PREACHER. LOUISVILLE (GEORGIA) HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. January 15.
Resolved, That a committee, consisting of nine members be appointed to examine and report to this house respecting the constitutional and validity of an act of the last General Assembly, entitled "An act supplementary to an act, entitled "An act for appropriating a part of the unlocated territory of this state for the payment of the late state troops and for other purposes therein mentioned; declaring the right of this state to the unappropriated territory thereof; for the protection and support of the frontiers of this state; and for other purposes;" who shall have power to call for such persons, papers, and documents, as may be likely to give information relative thereto; and this house will provide for the expenses which may be incurred by their committee in discharge of this duty. Resolved, That the petitions, remonstrances, and presentments, addressed to the late convention, and the present legislature, on that subject, be referred, that the house do ballot for the appointment of the committee. The ballots were taken, and being examined it appeared that the greatest number of votes was in favour of Mr. James Jackson, Mr. Few, Mr. James Jones, Mr. Mitchell, Mr. Rutherford, Mr. Emanuel, Mr. Frazier, Mr. John Moore, and Mr. Franklin. Friday, January 22. Mr. James Jackson, from the committee to whom was referred the consideration of the constitutionality and validity of a certain act of the last session of the Legislature passed at Augusta on
day of January, 1795, and divers petitions preferred to the late convention, and to the present legislature, touching the act for appropriating a part of the western territory of this state, made a report, which being read was agreed to by the house, and is as follows, to wit:
The committee to whom the consideration of the constitutionality and validity of a certain act of the last session of the legislature, passed at Augusta, on the 7th day of January 1795, entitled "An act for appropriating a part of the unlocated territory of this state for the payment of the late state troops, &c" as well the various petitions and remonstrances of the good people of this state against the said act, presented to the late convention and present legislature, were referred, report, that they had the same under their serious consideration and lament that they are compelled to declare, that the fraud, corruption and collusion by which the said act was obtained, and the unconstitutionality of the same evinces the utmost depravity in the majority of the last legislature. It appears to your committee that private interest has been alone consulted; that the rights of posterity were bartered by the said act; that by it the equal mounds of rights were broken down, and the principles of aristocracy established in their stead.
The committee, whilst they thus with shame and confusion, acknowledge that such a legislature intrusted with the rights of their constituents, did exist in Georgia, cannot however forbear to congratulate the present legislature and the community at large, that there are sufficient grounds as well from respect to the unconstitutionality of the act, as from the testimony before the committee of the fraud practised to obtain it to pronounce that the fame is a nullity of itself and not binding or obligatory on the people of this state; and they flatter themselves that a declaration to the purport by a legislative act, will check that rapacious and avaricious spirit of speculation which has in this state, overleaped all decent bounds, and which if it were to continue, would totally annihilate morality and good faith from among the citizens of this state.
The committee, for this purpose, beg leave to report "an act for declaring the said usurped act, void, and for expunging the same from the face of the public records;" and they also herewith report, in part of testimony before them, fifteen affidavits taken on the subject of the fraud practised to obtain it.
Extract from the minutes. JAS. M. SIMMONS, CLK. H. R.
NEW-YORK, February 18. In a former paper we gave the arguments of the Justices Hobart and Benson, in this we give the other side of the question.
State of New-York, Supreme Court. Arguments of Mr. Justice Lewis, in the case of the people, against Josiah Stiles and Isaac Storr Hutchinson.
Josiah Stiles and Isaac Storr Hutchinson, the prisoners at the bar, stand severally convicted of uttering and publishing as true, certain false, forged, and counterfeited promissory notes, for payment of money, in the similitude of those of the President, Directors and Company of the Bank of the United States, knowing them to be false, &c and whether the judgment consequent on such conviction, shall be arrested, is now the question for the decision of this court—and surely a more important and interesting one cannot be conceived, contemplating it either as involving the powers of this tribunal, or affecting the dearest interests of two unfortunate fellow citizens:—Hence several arguments have been deemed necessary as new points have arisen, and a considerable period of time has been devoted to a strict examination of the subject under all its various aspects.
In support of the motion in behalf of the prisoners, two points have been principally relied on.
1st. That this is not an offence within the act of the Legislature of this state, for preventing and punishing forgery and counterfeiting. And,
2d. That it is not an offence within the jurisdiction of this court.
The first was grounded principally on the terms of the notes forged, which were made payable to the order of Thomas Russell, of Boston, but was apparently abandoned on the last argument, upon the principle that the custom of merchants admits of no distinction between a bill made payable to the order of such an one, or, to such an one or order. Resting the relinquishment on this alone, I should still think it worth enquiry, how far such custom ought to be regarded in the construction of an act so highly penal, were it not that a recurrence to the act itself, renders such enquiry useless, it thence appearing, that the offence as charged, falls not only within its spirit and intention, but also within its precise terms; which are general, comprehending every species of promissory note, for payment of Money, without qualification of any kind.
The second, and perhaps more important point is, that which relates to the jurisdiction of this court. That it once had jurisdiction is not denied: but it is contended that it hath lost it by force of the 2d. section of the 3d article of the constitution of the general government, in conjunction with the 11th section of the act of Congress establishing its judicial courts.
Judicial power is an essential of government.—The first section of the article mentioned, recognizes that of the United States, and vests it in certain courts. The second section limits, in my conception, its operation to objects of certain and precise descriptions. Its terms are, the judicial power shall extend to all cases in law and equity arising under this constitution, the laws of the United States and treaties made &c. and those of the act referred to, give exclusive cognizance to the circuit courts, of all crimes and offences, cognizable under the authority of the United States, except where otherwise provided, &c.
It must be admitted that there is no act of congress, nor any article in the constitution of the national government, expressly constituting the fact, of which the prisoners stand convicted, a crime: we are therefore to consider it independent of any positive institution, and on the ground of common law.
counsel in support of the motion, viz. as an offence by implication at common law against the act incorporating the bank of the United States. The reasoning is.
 1st. That the right given to issue notes is against the rule of the common law.  2d. That a statute introducing a new law, implies a negative of every thing not within its purview.  3d. That the permission to issue notes is therefore an implied prohibition to all, other than those to whom it is granted—and,  4th. That the violation of a prohibition statute annexing no penalty, is punishable at common law, as a contempt against the statute. 
The soundness of these principles I shall not controvert. Admitting them just, the following questions result from their application to the cases under consideration.
 1st. Have the judicial courts of the United States cognizance of offences at common law.  2d. Are the above principles well applied in the present instance? And,  3d. Is the jurisdiction of the judicial courts of the United States, if any they have, in the cases under consideration exclusive or concurrent. 
If the judicial courts of the general government have jurisdiction of offences at common law, and that therefore it is a part of the law, then does the common law from a part of its criminal code, and its adoption must be found in the constitution from whence all its powers are derived. That no explicit declaration to this effect is there to be found, will readily be admitted; and that it is not inferrible from a just and fair construction of any part of that instrument, I think undeniable. The only article looking to the point, is the one above cited: and why this should have greater reference to the law of England, than to that of any other country, has not been to my mind satisfactorily explained. It is true the common law of England did, before the revolution of 1776, form a part of our municipal code—but that event unquestionably separated us from that country, its constitution and laws—new governments and laws were formed, and that the common law of England is at this day a part of the law of this state, is owing to an express provision to be found in the 35th article of its Constitution.

CONGRESS.
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.
Monday, February 22.
A report was read from a select committee, to whom the bill received from the Senate to amend the act to promote the progress of useful arts.
Two petitions were read, one for a compensation for losses during the war, which was referred to the committee of claims, the other from some merchants of Baltimore, who had paid a higher rate of duty on red wines, than the law contemplates, and pray a refunding the excess; referred to the committee of commerce and manufactures.
Mr. Heath after some prefatory remarks in which he condemned the present publications of the debates; moved the following resolution, viz:
Resolved, That until a Stenographer be appointed or further provision be made for publishing the debates, that no printer be permitted to publish extracts of speeches unless authorized by the members, delivering the same; laid on the table.
Mr. Smith, (S. C.) moved that the House adjourn for half an hour.
The motion was opposed. Mr. Giles remarked that on a former similar occasion the yeas and nays had been called; he then voted in the affirmative; but as the custom appears to be more and more assimilated to a governmental transaction, he thought it liable to serious objections, and especially as interrupting the public business, he was now opposed to it.
Mr. Sherburne opposed the motion; he thought the present hour would be the most improper, as the President's house would be crowded in such manner as would render it extremely inconvenient to the members—He thought it would be best for the members to wait on the President at the usual hour of three o'clock.
Mr. Baldwin and Mr. Page opposed the motion; they considered that the compliment would not be diminished by attending to the public business, and deferring waiting on the President till three o'clock.
The Speaker observed, that a debate upon the motion, by protracting a question, went virtually to defeat it.
Mr. Sedgwick hoped that as two members had been heard against the motion, the house would suffer him to express a single idea in its favor. He said that since the commencement of the government, it had been the practice of the legislature to wait on the President first; and unless a good reason could be assigned against the practice, he hoped it would not be departed from.—It had been the constant practice, that the legislature preceded other citizens in paying this compliment to the President.
Mr. Smith, (S. C.) offered a few remarks in favor of the motion, as being more convenient than postponing it, and less of an interruption to the business of the House to three o'clock.
Mr. Gallatin moved to strike out "half an hour." This motion was negatived—Mr. Smith's motion was then put and negatived, 50 to 38.
In committee of the whole on the bill authorizing a loan for the city of Washington.
To the first section the committee made no amendment, tho' Mr. Swift objected to it as containing a principle variant from the report which had been previously brought in.
On the second section Mr. Swanwick offered some remarks—He considered it disreputable to the government of the United States to borrow money for the purpose contemplated; he should think it as proper to borrow money to pay the wages of the members of this House. He further objected to the government's borrowing money on mortgage; it would, he conceived, have a very odd appearance, particularly in Europe; it was contrary to the customary usage of the government, and he did not feel satisfied that it would not have an inauspicious aspect on the public credit.
Mr. Nicholas made a few remarks in reply to Mr. Swanwick.
No amendment being offered, the committee proceeded to the third section. A small amendment was made in this section.
Mr. Smith (M.) moved to strike out the 4th section, which pledges the faith of the U. States for repayment of any deficiency which may arise from the sale of the lots. Mr. Smith observed, that if this section was struck out, the loan will stand on the same footing with all other loans—he saw no necessity for adding this collateral security.
Mr. Swanwick seconded the motion, which he supported on similar principles with those he before advanced.
Mr. Crabb said he conceived the gentleman from Maryland mistook the principle altogether.—The lots are not security for the United States—no such thing is thought of. The United States stand as it were behind the lots, that if they should eventually prove insufficient to repay the loan, then the United States step in and secure the money lenders. He could not imagine how gentlemen could consider this as derogatory to the United States. Apply the principle to private, common concerns—surely it is not lessening the responsibility of a third person to guarantee the fulfilment of a contract entered into by two persons.
Mr. Brent supported the clause. He considered it as containing the marrow, the essence of the whole bill; and if the clause is expunged, the business will remain exactly as it was before any thing was done.
Mr. Swift and Mr. Hillhouse objected to the clause. The latter moved that the committee should rise for the purpose of recommitting the bill. This motion was seconded by Mr. Kittera.
Mr. Smith (N. H.) opposed the motion, unless he mover should come forward with some definite object as a reason for the re-commitment; this he did not do.
Mr. Kittera said he seconded the motion for recommitting the bill; not for the purpose of recommitting the bill. He remarked that there was evidently a departure from the principle of the resolutions in the first and third sections of the bill.
Mr. Smith (N. H.) supported the bill, as having
The bill contains no principle contrary to them, but merely a detail of the general provisions connected with the object contemplated, namely a loan.
The motion, for re-commitment, occasioned considerable debate. The committee at length rose, reported progress, and had leave to sit again. Adjourned.
Ricketts's New Amphitheatre, CHESNE STREET.
TO-MORROW EVENING, Wednesday, 24th February,
There will be presented, a general Grand Display of the most capital Equestrian & Stage Performances, And, in addition to the former Scenery, the BEAUTIFUL PAINTING By Mr. Joseph Perroni, painter and architect from Italy, which gave such extraordinary satisfaction last evening, at the celebration of THE PRESIDENT'S BIRTH-NIGHT, Representing the Temple of Minerva, with the Statue of that Goddess of Wisdom, in the attitude of a bust of the President of the United States of America, placed on an handsome pedestal, and surrounded by Fifteen Figures, emblematic of the Fifteen States, holding Festoons of Flowers. The President's Statue is crowned by other Figures, representing Immortality and Liberty, ready to celebrate the Birth Day of this virtuous hero, whilst an Eagle appears, flying swiftly down, with the label in his bill, E PLURIBUS UNUM. The top of the Temple and the Architrave are ornamented with emblematical Paintings descriptive of The VICTORIES gained under the command of Washington, Who yesterday commenced his 64th year, which is recorded by History, sitting by the pedestal that supports the bust. The Arms of each State are painted over each Box, and the arms of the U. S. opposite the Stage. COMMERCE and AGRICULTURE appear on the front of the Stage. And several Shields for Coats of Arms of the new States; together with other Emblems of the Indian Treaties. Besides, a variety of other Paintings & Figures, that compose A Troupe of Scenery extremely interesting. The whole House will be illuminated with variegated lamps, and the great Girandole is ornamented with Festoons of Flowers.

PARIS, November 26.
The Executive Directory has published a decree appointing a certain hour for selling grain and flour, and each citizen is obliged to carry a certificate of the number of persons in his family, in order that he may be provided accordingly.
LONDON, November 27.
The assembly of the representatives of the people of Holland, have received intelligence from the Hague, that Ewart, the Dutch Envoy to the Court of Russia, had received notice from that Court, that it could not acknowledge the republic as independent so long as the French troops continued in the country, but must consider it as conquered by France; on which account it could enter into no negotiations on commercial or other affairs.
The Dukes de Choiseul and Montmorency are in prison at Calais, taken on board one of the transports lately driven on shore.
A Horse belonging to a farmer in Deenping-Fens, last week a hunting with Doctor Willis's hounds, made a spring of seven yards in length over a three-bar gate. This leap, however astonishing here, would be considered as nothing in Ireland: a gentleman at Limrick has a horse, which about two months since leaped twenty-six feet in length, clearing in the same a hedge in the centre of more than four feet in height.
November 30.
The prevailing conversation in the West End of the town this morning, is respecting some changes likely to take place in administration; these, it is said, will be such as tend rather to strengthen than relax the reins of government, acting upon the system which at present guides the policies of the cabinet. Among others expected to come in, are Lord Thurlow and the Marquis of Lansdowne—Of the latter nobleman it is matter of curious remark, that he has never yet clearly explained himself respecting the measures now agitating in Parliament.
One of the ministerial paragraphists, full fraught with that cool, kind, and christian spirit which so patiently and philosophically bears the misfortunes and distresses of others, says, that the present high price of candles will make no material difference, but rather be a saving to those who will adopt his method, which is, to burn only two candles where they were wont to burn four, and where they have been accustomed to burn two, only one. He farther hints, that by adopting this economical method in quarter loaves , no little saving may be made in the article of bread. This is very kind and good advice; we wish to extend the system still farther, and to see it brought forward in the shape of an order of council, directed to all place-men, pensioners, commissaries, contractors, government agents, brokers, &c. &c. in short, to every man, ecclesiastical or lay, who receives public money or emolument to the amount of 500l. a year, for which he does something, or to the amount of 100l. a year, for which he does nothing.
That his majesty, taking into his most serious
other necessaries of life, by and with the advice of his privy council, has thought fit to order and enjoin, and does hereby strictly order and enjoin, all and every the persons coming under the description aforesaid, to confine themselves to one half their usual consumption of provisions and other articles of necessary use to the poor, for the ten months next ensuing, on pain of being deprived of their places, pensions, and emoluments aforesaid."
The Prince George of 98 guns, having in the late gales lost her rudder, a mode of steering her was adopted, which differed from that suggested by Capt. Pakenham, but was successful. A top-mast was pointed from the ward-room windows, to the end of which two sweeps (large oars) which went from the gun-room ports, were bolted, and the inner ends, although strongly fastened, were allowed, of course, to traverse. The sides being boarded, the ends were lowered a few feet into the water, and the ship was steered with great facility, by hawsers from each quarter, made fast to this rudder.
CHARLESTON, Feb. 1.
We have been favored with a Copy of the treaty between the United States and Great Britain, as ratified by the President and the British King. From it we have extracted the forms of Ratification by the parties, together with the additional article required by the President, and acceded to by the British King.

Whereas a certain treaty of amity, commerce and navigation, between the United States of America and his Britannic majesty, was concluded and signed between their plenipotentiary the Hon. John Jay, Chief justice of the United States, and their envoy extraordinary to his said majesty, and the plenipotentiary of his Britannic majesty, the right honorable William Wyndham, baron Grenville of Wootton, one of his majesty's privy council, and his majesty's secretary of state for foreign affairs, at London, on the nineteenth day of Nov. in the year of our lord one thousand seven hundred and ninety four: which treaty is word for word as follows, to wit:
[Here follows the treaty.]
And whereas the senate of the United States did, by their resolution on the twenty fourth day of June, in the year of our Lord 1795, (all the senators of the United States being then present and two thirds thereof concurring) "consent & advise the President of the United States to ratify the treaty of amity commerce and navigation, between his Britannic majesty and the United States of America, concluded at London the nineteenth day of Nov. 1794, on condition that there be added in the said treaty an article whereby it shall be agreed to suspend the operation of so much of the twelfth article as respects the trade which his majesty thereby consents may be carried on between the United States and his islands in the West-Indies, in the manner, and on the terms and conditions therein specified."

SAVANNAH, January 28. The ship Two Brothers, Capt. Ulmer, from Liverpool for this port, last Saturday night, ran ashore at the Hunting Islands, South-Carolina. The crew were saved, but the vessel and cargo are lost. Died, Capt. Sigourney, of the snow William.
Philadelphia, TUESDAY EVENING, FEBRUARY 23, 1796.
The Senate and House of Representatives of this Commonwealth, with the Speaker of the Senate at their head, yesterday waited in a body, on the President of the United States, to offer him their congratulations.
Extract of a letter from a respectable gentleman in Virginia, to his friend in Philadelphia, dated February 10, 1796.
"I cannot suppose that there are many members in Congress so regardless of the obligations of their oaths and the happiness and welfare of their country, as to attempt to prevent the execution of a treaty constitutionally made—should they do so, and a war should be the consequence, they would have much to fear from the resentment of the people, when they shall feel the burdens and calamities incident to war, and reflect on the advantages which they have lost by so imprudent a measure."
Amongst the variety of decorations which ornamented the Amphitheatre last evening, were
A superb PAINTING which covered the Stage; It represented the Temple of Minerva, with her Statue, in the attitude of coming forward toward a BUST of the PRESIDENT of the United States of America, placed on an handsome Pedestal, and surrounded by FIFTEEN FIGURES, emblematical of the Fifteen States, holding Festoons of Flowers.
The PRESIDENT'S Statue was crowned by other Figures, representing IMMORTALITY and LIBERTY, whilst an Eagle appears with the label in his bill, E PLURIBUS UNUM.
The top of the Temple and the Architrave were ornamented with emblematical paintings descriptive of the VICTORIES gained under the command of WASHINGTON! who commences his 64th year, which is recorded by History, sitting by the Pedestal that supports the Bust.
The Arms of each State are painted over each Box, and the Arms of the United States opposite the Stage. COMMERCE and AGRICULTURE appear on the front of the Stage.
The resolution introduced into the House of Representatives by Mr. Heath, one of the members from Virginia, would not, if adopted, prevent congressional intelligence from being published in the Gazette. The publication of sketches of the debates in the Gazette of the United States, commenced with the government under the present constitution. During the first session, the reporter took his stand in the gallery—At the instance of some of the members he was indulged with a desk on the floor of the House.
It is now seven years since the business began, and no charge of wilful misrepresentation has ever been made.
If the resolution is adopted, of which there is not the smallest probability, the reporter will have to take his stand in the gallery; for the RIGHT of conveying congressional information to the PEOPLE can not be denied, and will not be relinquished.
On Friday night last a fire broke out in Mr. Kid's house, next door to the President of the United States, which but for a timely discovery would certainly have made a rapid progress;—we have the pleasure to add, that the house and furniture were insured at the office of the insurance company of North America—the usefulness of such institutions needs no comment.
FOR THE GAZETTE OF THE UNITED STATES.
Mr. FENNO,
THE account of the celebration of the President's Birth-Day, in yesterday's Gazette, was not accurate in one particular:—The House of Representatives did not adjourn at 12 o'clock, consequently could not wait on the President "at noon."—And, Sir, perhaps it is well they did not; for there was at that time such a mob of Senators, Clergymen, Citizen Soldiers, and Soldier Citizens, and they raised, by their congratulations, such a "popular clamour" about the house, that it is hardly possible to conceive what the consequences would have been; certainly the feelings of some gentlemen would have been hurt extremely.
When the mob had in a great degree retired, and the popular clamour had subsided, which was at half past two precisely, every man who voted not to waste half an hour immediately after 12

Table with 2 columns: Prize amount, Number of prizes. Includes: A magnificent dwelling-house, 1 ditto 15,000 & cash 25,000, etc.
16,739 Prizes. 33,261 Blanks. 50,000 Tickets, at Eight Dollars, 400,000
This Lottery will afford an elegant specimen of the private buildings to be erected in the City of Washington. Two beautiful designs are already selected for the entire range on two of the public squares; from these drawings, it is proposed to erect two centre and four corner buildings, as soon as possible after this Lottery is sold, and to convey them when complete, to the fortunate adventurers, in the manner described in the scheme for the Hotel Lottery. A net deduction of five per cent. will be made to defray the necessary expenses of printing, &c. and the surplus will be made a part of the fund intended for the National University, to be erected within the City of Washington.
The drawing will commence as soon as the Tickets are sold off. The money prizes will be payable in thirty days after it is finished, and any prizes for which fortunate numbers are not produced within twelve months after the drawing is closed are to be considered as given towards the fund for the University, it being determined to settle the whole business in a year from the ending of the drawing and to take up the bonds given as security.
The real securities given for the payment of the Prize are held by the President and two Directors of the Bank of Columbia, and are valued at more than half the amount of the Lottery.
The twenty-four gentlemen who by appointment of the late Commissioners assisted in the management of the Hotel Lottery are requested to undertake this arduous task a second time on behalf of the public; a sufficient number of these having kindly accepted, it is hoped that the friends to a National University and the other federal objects may continue to favor the design. The synopsis of one of the Colleges, to form a branch of the National Institution, is already in the press, and will be speedily published, together with its constitution.
A complete PLAN of the whole of this Important Institution, compiled from a selection of the best materials, ancient and modern, will be submitted to the public whenever the same may have gone through such revisions as may be necessary to establish the perfect confidence and general approbation, so essential to its present rise and future existence for the general good of America.
By accounts received from the different parts of the Continent as well as from Europe, where the tickets have been sent for sale, the public are assured that the drawing will speedily commence, and that the care and caution unavoidably necessary to insure a fair disposal of the tickets, has rendered the short suspension indispensable.

Bank of Columbia,
FEBRUARY 12th, 1796. A late act of the General Assembly in King George alteration in the Charter of the Bank of Columbia (but not to have effect until the consent of the Stockholders in the said Bank be given at a general meeting, and transmitted, under their corporate seal, to the Governor and Council) being too long for insertion in a newspaper, I am directed by the President and Directors to notify the Stockholders of the alteration, as follows:
By the original act, the Stock of the Bank of Columbia is to consist of 10,000 shares of 100 dollars each, to be paid by annual instalments of 10 dollars on each share, except the first three payments, which are directed to be made, and which have accordingly been made, at shorter periods. A failure in making any of the payments required by the law, operates a forfeiture of all preceding payments.
The late act provides that the Stockholders may pay up, as soon as they think proper, the several instalments still to become due on their shares, or any part thereof—but the aggregate amount of the voluntary payments to be made is not to exceed in any one year 100,000 dollars. No forfeiture is hereafter to be incurred by any Stockholder for non-payment of any of the remaining instalments due on his shares—and each Stockholder is to be entitled to receive of the future dividends in proportion to the sums actually paid by him to the Bank.
Thus, it is proposed that each Stockholder shall be at liberty to pay up the instalments still remaining unpaid on his shares, or not, as may best suit his convenience and interest, without any risk of forfeiting the payments already made, or his share of his future dividends in proportion to his payments.
There has already been paid to the Bank 40 dollars on each share, or 400,000 dollars of the Capital Stock.
A meeting of the Stockholders will be held at Georgetown on the 20th day of March next, to elect twelve Directors for the year ensuing—and it is presumed by the President and Directors that the question as to the acceptance or rejection of this late act of the General Assembly will at that time be decided.

Insurance from Lois by Fire.
THE Insurance Company of North-America, to accommodate the Public, throughout the United States, with respect to assurances from Fire on BUILDINGS of every description, hereby publish, that resolutions to this effect have passed their Board; and that hereafter they shall be ready to make such assurances on terms to be fixed by their President and Committee, agreeably to circumstances. Those who are anxious to effect assurances, will find their advantage in sending the most particular statement of their buildings, and the relative circumstances. Persons not having a correspondent in this city, or who prefer doing this business with the Office directly, by means of Letters, post paid, must not fail to enclose a builder's description of the dimensions, condition, materials and situation of the building proposed to be insured, especially with respect to its contiguity to other buildings, and whether those buildings be of wood, or brick, or stone. It must be particularly stated, whether the building itself, or those in its neighbourhood, be occupied as dwellings, or used as magazines or manufactory, and for what particular purpose; and to obviate all objection, it is expected that this builder's statement, and the representation annexed, shall be severally signed by the parties, and accompanied by a magistrate's certificate, that they are persons of good repute. For the government of the Public, they deem it expedient to notice, that although the premium must be fixed according to the degree of hazard in the estimation of the President and Committee of the week, yet it will probably not be more than from about half to one per cent. annually, except where a house or store is not only itself built of wood, but situated next other buildings of the same material. On such risks not more than four thousand dollars will be written on one policy. Houses and stores built of brick or stone, and situated in open streets in any of the principal towns or cities where fire engines and fire companies are established, and not containing articles particularly combustible, will be considered risks entitled to assurance at the lowest of these rates. On single hazards, even of the best kind, where from remoteness those advantages cannot be enjoyed, the Company will not assure more than six thousand dollars. No policy will be signed 'till the premium be paid. Any person insuring for seven years, will be charged only the amount of six annual premiums; and for three years, a deduction of one-third of a year's premium will be made. By order of the Board, EBEN. HAZARD, Secretary. Office of Insurance Company of N. A. { Philadelphia, Jan. 26, 1796. 2aw.
FOR PUBLISHING BY SUBSCRIPTION, S K E T C H E S
OF THE HISTORY OF THE UNITED STATES,
From the peace of 1783, to the termination of the present Session of Congress. BY MATHEW CAREY. CONDITIONS. I. This work will be comprised in two or three octavo volumes, each about 400 pages. II. The price to subscribers will be two dollars per volume, handsomely bound. III. No money will be required till the volumes are delivered. IV. Should any of the subscribers disapprove of the work when complete, they may decline receiving it. V. It is expected to be ready for press in the spring of 1797. VI. As soon after the above time, as one thousand copies are subscribed for, the printing shall commence, and shall be finished as speedily as possible. VII. Subscriptions received by the Author, No. 118, Market-street, and by the chief Book-sellers throughout the United States. TO THE PUBLIC. THE object of the proposed work, is, to present to public view a connected series of the chief events of a period of American history, that does not yield, in importance, to any period of equal length, in the peaceful annals of any country in the world. Desiring to excite no expectations but such as he shall endeavour to satisfy, the writer is thus early in announcing, that the body and confidence of a regular history, is not to be looked for in this work: neither his talents nor his avocations allow him to hope for this. His humbler task shall be to sketch out the most prominent features. It shall be his study to collect and arrange the most interesting materials—to smooth the rugged path—for abler hands, who, by such means, will find their labours abridged, and their progress accelerated. His chief view will be, to give the History of the United States as a confederated Republic. Nevertheless, notice will be taken of the most remarkable circumstances in the history of the individual States, as far as they can be collected. This information shall be classed under separate appendixes. The Author solicits the assistance of such Gentlemen as may be possessed of documents calculated to promote the execution of his plan. They shall be received with due gratitude—carefully preferred—and fairly returned. February 9. JEW12t

PROPOSALS, FOR PRINTING BY SUBSCRIPTION,
A NEW EDITION OF
MILLAR'S ELEMENTS OF THE LAW OF INSURANCE.
THE present publication shall, by additions to the small Treatise published in Britain in 1787, be augmented to the size of two volumes royal octavo, consisting of at least 600 pages each, on a small pica type.
It had been suggested to the compiler, by many persons conversant in the law and practice of Insurance, that a complete compilation of the authorities on this single subject would be of great utility; to which persons particularly interested in this one branch of law might have recourse, instead of being under the necessity of purchasing and turning over a variety of voluminous publications. To answer this end of convenience, it is proposed to define the first volume of the present work to the reception of a very full collection of authorities; not in a state of abridgment, as was the case in the former edition; and which could never supersede recourse to the originals; but to be inserted verbatim from the most approved original compilations, and arranged in the mode which appears easiest for consultation. This First Volume, or Dictionary of Authorities, will comprehend,
1st. The ancient Marine Ordinances of the foreign states of Europe: which form the common law of Insurance. At present it is unfortunate that a collection of these is scarcely to be found any where else than in that scarce and dear book, Magen's Eloy, in two volumes, 4to.
2d. The Statute Law of Great-Britain in regard to Insurance. The American legislatures have hitherto done nothing upon this subject.
3d. A very full collection of the reports of adjudged cases in the courts of England and Scotland, and of those of the States of America so far as they can be obtained. This will form by far the greatest as well as the most important part of the first volume. By means of his friends at the English bar, the compiler hopes to bring forward a number of reports of adjudged cases never before published, so as to make the series on this subject more complete than any now extant.
The second volume will consist of an Institute, or Elementary Treatise, on a plan somewhat similar to that of the former edition; but with a great addition of new matter; so as to extend this part of the work to about double the former size. A more practical arrangement will also be studied.
The whole will be attended with very full Indexes of the different parts.
Price to subscribers six dollars and one half for the two volumes in boards.
The work will be put to the press whenever a sufficient number of subscriptions have been obtained to indemnify the publisher for the actual expense of publication.
Subscriptions will be received by Thomas Dobson, and all the Booksellers in Philadelphia. January 19. 2aw6w.
