COMMUNICATION.
A stupid Virginia Negro driver, who dates from Shannon Hill (Berkley) has undertaken to write a letter to Duane, enclosing the price of a year's subscription for the Country Aurora, and telling him that he has been deterred by the cry of Jacobin &c. from enquiring whether the Aurora, rested on the broad basis of truth."
Any body who reads this, must burst out into a broad laugh, and yet this Sir Ferdinando Fairfax—this knight of the woeful plough; no doubt concluded, he was paying a very high compliment to the man he was addressing, by intimating, that, until lately, he had supposed that the newspaper published by him, was a pack of lies:—at least he was afraid to enquire, lest he should discover the truth of the fact—Well, Duane, takes it as a high compliment from Sir Ferdinando and publishes the letter, forsooth—This is the very first instance in which Duane ever undertook to puff himself off in his own newspaper—How so? Why he never published a single batch of 4th of July toasts, wherein "Billy Duane" was drunk, for one—in the shape of himself—of a Cat or of a Rat catcher, or some other useful beast—No! No! He was too modest—He never laid a word about the New-York feasting; where he dined without about a dozen of his peers—whether Cats or Rats; so matter which, and where "after Mr. Duane retired"—"William Duane"—was toasted—No No—He was too modest!!!
MR. WAYNE,
IN your paper of Monday last a correspondent expresses a desire of being informed whether a would be Sheriff of Insurrection memory can expect to derive a powerful support from that respectable body, the Roman Catholics, at the election to take place in October next. I must confess, I had been of opinion, that the firm, steady and decided part which a very great majority of this respectable society have, on all occasions, taken in support of men of genuine Federal sentiments, was so well known, as to have rendered any Query of the kind unnecessary; however, as it appears information on this point is desired, I beg leave to state, that from a pretty accurate knowledge, which I have of this subject, I feel no hesitation in saying, that so far from giving their countenance, much less a powerful support, in favor of this enlightened and virtuous Christian, that he will meet an almost unanimous and decided opposition. He is, therefore, very much mistaken, if he believes his appearance occasionally at St. Marys will operate favorably on his election, and is at the same time assured, that they perfectly well know to what motive this affected piety is to be attributed, and will regulate themselves accordingly. A. Z.
LEVITY.
For the GAZETTE of the UNITED STATES.
MR. WAYNE,
Dear Sir, I APPLY to you in a case of real distress. My life is at stake! and it appears to me that you alone can save it.
My melancholy history is this: I am the daughter of a decayed gentlewoman, who keeps a boarding house at the corner of — street, on the profits of which depends the subsistence of the family.
It is my misfortune to have been born with an extreme sensibility of nerves, and a general delicacy or debility of organization, which subjects me to a thousand inconveniences. I receive for instance, not only disagreeable, but dangerous impressions from offensive smells and tastes, from the view of filth and dirt, and even from the observation of a want of cleanliness and decency in the dress or the habits of individuals—I have been once and again carried home in a swoon from certain streets of Philadelphia, merely because I had approached too near to stagnant water. I feel an instantaneous nausea on seeing a man chewing a moist quid of tobacco; and I cannot assist my sickly aunt Deborah, when she takes an emetic, because even the hearing of its operation has the same effect on me as if I had swallowed a competent dose of Ipecacuanha myself.
Now Sir, you must know, that my mother's house has for some time past been occupied by lodgers, who to be sure are the best men in the world, but who, one and all, have so many indelicate customs, or to speak more plainly so many dirty tricks, that I not only lead a most uncomfortable life, but feel my health and strength and spirits failing; and unless you come to my relief, I must soon go the way of all flesh.
Allow me to give you a sample of my services:
Among our boarders, the personage of the highest dignity happens to be a member of Congress. This respectable gentleman generally places himself at the foot of the table and assists my mother in doing the honours. He distributes the roast-beef, which is a standing dish in our house, and my favorite food. But alas! he is no sooner seated, than he lays hold of his fork, and (while the rest of the company are eating their soup) makes most diligent use of the prongs, in scratching his head, particularly the hind part of it, through a large quantity of hair, matted and thickened by means of powder and pomatum. The activity of his exertions, and the contortions of face with which they are accompanied, enforce the notion
that the itching he means to remove is excited by some very pungent cause. A slice of beef is called for—and behold! the aforesaid fork, all powdery, all greasy, all I know not what! is applied to its natural function. Poor I! could not taste beef, so served, were it to preserve my existence.
Wishing however to eat something, (for O wretched maid that I am! I have a good sharp appetite,) I apply to the person who sits second in order, for a leg of the fowl, or a small bit of the ham, which happens to be opposite to him; but before I have fully uttered the request, I observe that he has been picking his teeth, his yellow teeth, with his knife and fork alternately. No, says I, I have altered my mind, I won't have any. I beg pardon.
My mother helps to the fish. I procure a little of it, and begin to eat—when casting my eyes on one side, I perceive that my next neighbour, a handsome young Englishman from an adjoining counting house, is flopping forward over the table, and ever and anon spitting out upon his plate small parcels of fish-bones, conjoined with pieces of the fish, half chewed. My stomach begins to rise—I turn away, my head, and force down a few mouthfuls, with much difficulty. By and by, I find he has changed his plate. I breathe: I regain courage to look round once more:—Worse and worse; he has now been helped to a piece of griskin, with potatoes and salad—(You see we have a good dinner, if one could but eat it in comfort;)—And lo! fragments of potatoes are perpetually crumbling and tumbling from his mouth into the plate, in such quick and smooth succession, that the idea of my aunt's emetic comes full into my mind. I can stand it no longer. I rise, I rush out of the parlour; and alas! and alackaday! not even the little I had gulped down to support life ***** but I will not proceed, nor will I recount the rest of my annoyances, for fear you should think that my own habits are not the most delicate in the world.
Suffice it then to say, that I find myself in actual danger of starving for want of food. My mother would not for the world explain to the gentleman the real cause of my suffering, (although they often express surprise and commiseration,) nor will she allow me to do it—for I sometimes think I could, in my despair, summon up resolution enough to speak out: She says it would ruin her business—that the lodgers would never forgive the insult—that they would leave the house, and prevent others from frequenting it.—Besides, the old gentleman is rigid in her ideas of education, and of the proper treatment of young people. She talks much of the airs which pretended fine ladies give themselves now-a-days; confides my delicacy of feelings as pure affectation; and obstinately refuses to allow me to eat alone. My only hope is in you. If you insert this letter in the Gazette of the United States, which is read aloud in our house every day after dinner; the boarders will take the hint, (they cannot be offended, as I have mentioned no names:) you will raise a poor girl from the brink of the grave: and I shall ever be my dear, dear, dear, Sir, Your most devoted Servant, LUCY LACKADAY.
[The City of New-York has lately given us a Nautical Poet, not unworthy of the family of DODD. The martial hymns of TYRTAEUS animated the Greeks in the hour of battle. Many a brave man has been stimulated to duty on the plain of Minden and before the walls of Quebec, by the cheering and jocular sound of "The British Grenadiers," and the popular "Lillibullero" and "Boyne Water," and "The King shall have his own again," have incited the soldiers and sailors of a Stuart and an Orange. The following original Ballad is well calculated to urge the bold sailor to destroy the buccaneering privateers of the thief, Merlin, and check the maritime plunder of the upstart Buonaparte.]
TUNE—All hands-a-Hoy to the anchor, NOW the PRESIDENT'S ready for sea boys! O! she's such a tight little ship, Tars, Lubbers, and Swabs, full of glee, boys, All long to go in her a trip; But the master, who knows what he's made of, Says the captain begins to be nice, And tho' he be nothing afraid of, He'll send away Swabs in a trice. CHORUS With light hearts we'll sail away, Jolly Boys, With the smiles of fair fortune we go, The pirates shall think of their Jolly Boys, When they hear through the trumpet, YO HOA!
YET we've room for a true hearted sailor. Who knows what to do in a ship, When battle and fierce storm assail her, Who laughs when the anchor's a trip; Who never was known for a flincher, While seamen were wanted on deck, Who'd meet the flut soe aye, and clinch her, And fight till himself was a wreck. CHORUS With a light heart he'll sail away, Jolly Boys, In search of good fortune to go, And bang the proud foe for his foll', Boys, Who comes with n' Tankey YO HOA.
Since Jacobins dont like to fight, Boys, And fight at the musical roar Of the great guns, in which we delight, Boys, Why let the poor rogues stay on shore. They say we may meet with a flout ship, As tight and well mann'd as the last To lead us a dance—then about ship, And fight till there's never a mast; CHORUS Still fortune shall smile on us Jolly Boys, You'll soon see who'd take her in tow; We'll come back to Sall, Kate, and Polly, Boys, And cheer them with hearty, YO HOA.
EPITAPH. Here lies the body of Jacob Sneer, Who had a mouth from ear to ear; Reader, tread lightly on his sod, For if he gapes--you're gone by G--.
Extract of a letter from a Gentleman on board the Ship Charles, Capt. Biberwood, Cape Mount, Africa, dated 27th December, 1799.
"Left at Sierra Leone, December 24th, the ship Independence, of Boston, to sail in a few days for the Havana. The Schooner Clarissa, captain Gordon Bennett, of New-Providence, was cast away on the tail of the shoals of St. Ann, going from Sierra Leone to Sherbro island, and as the natives are almost Cannibals, 'twas thought they would be all murdered."
"Munro had failed for Tobago and the Agreeable for Barbadoes. Fell in with the British frigate La Ujue, of 48 guns, and failed in company with her for there who treated us politely."
We state on the authority of a gentleman who was on board the ship Criterion, when the Louis was captured by a French privateer, that the account published in a letter from Madras, is erroneous: the Louis had been captured and her guns turned on the Criterion and two broadsides given, which killed 2 and wounded 2, besides doing considerable injury to her sails and rigging, before the Criterion attempted to quit the action.
For the GAZETTE of the UNITED STATES. [The following we have just received from England, from the Rev. W. Gordon, Rector of St. Nicol's.]
St. Nicol's, Feb. 23, 1800.
SIR, Observing in the Philadelphia Daily Advertiser of September 7, 1799, an article dated Alexandria, August 23—"Died on Friday morning the 16th instant, near Dumfries, Mr. Daniel Ford, in the 20th year of his age, of that dreadful malady the Hydrophobia, very much and very justly respected." (He was bitten, as I observed, by a maddog, in the neck.) I have here sent you a bottle for the bite of a mad dog.
The leaves of rue, picked from the stalks and built—Venice treacle or mithridate, and scrapings of pewter, each four ounces—boil all these together over a slow fire in two quarts of ale, till one pint is consumed—keep it in a bottle close stopped—give of it nine spoonfuls, a little warm to the person bit, seven mornings successively, and six to a dog, to be given for nine days after the bite; apply also some of the ingredients to the part bitten.
N. B. This Receipt was taken out of Cathrop Church, in Lincolnshire, the whole town almost being bitten, and not one person that took this medicine but what was cured. Your humble Servant, WILLIAM GORDON.

EXTRACTS
From London Papers to June 10 received at the Office of the Gazette of the United States.
LONDON, June 10.
Admiralty-Office, June 7, 1800.
Copy of a letter from Captain Price, commander of his majesty's ship Badger, to Evan Nepean, Esq. dated at St. Marcou the 31st May, 1800.
SIR, I beg leave to inclose you, for the information of their lordships, a letter I received this day from lieutenant Henry Richardson (1st) commanding his majesty's hired cutter Rose (2d), giving me an account of his having captured Le Risque a Tout Republican Privateer, carrying two four-pounders, with musketry, and sixteen men, belonging to Cherbourg, Jacques Neel captain; and I have sent the prisoners by the Champion cutter to Portsmouth.
I am, Sir, &c. &c. &c. C. P. PRICE.
His Majesty's hired cutter Rose (2d) at Sea, May 31, 1800.
SIR, In pursuance of your order of yesterday's date, I proceeded with his majesty's hired cutter Rose (2d) under my command, the Dolphin hired cutter, lieutenant Jarrett commander, in company, for the purpose of examining the creeks and harbours of the enemy between Cape Barfleur and Cape La Hogue.
At half past four this morning observed a small cutter to windward; the Dolphin making the signal of an enemy we immediately gave chase, and in an hour captured her, Cape Barfleur S. E. distant about three or four leagues: found her to be La Risque a Tout French privateer, mounting two four-pounders, with musketry, sixteen men, Jacques Neel, captain, out ten hours from Cherbourg without making any capture. I am, Sir, &c. &c. &c. H. RICHARDSON (1st).
Charles Papps Price, Esq. commander of his majesty's sloop Badger, St. Marcou.
We have the pleasure to say, that 10 men out of the 14, who were blown up in the Andromeda, have recovered their fight.
A Court Martial is ordered to be held at Portsmouth on Lord Proby, and the officers of the Danae frigate, for the loss of that ship, run into Brest by the crew.
A Court Martial is also to be held on captain Alms, for the loss of the Repulse, of 64 guns.
Admiral Lord Duncan is gone down to Dundee, in Scotland.
Don Chacon, who was Governor of Trinidad at the time it was taken by the English, has been beheaded at Madrid, pursuant to a Council of War, for having betrayed his trust in the surrender of the Island.
A Public Print, advertising to our fair married Dames, manfully supports their conjugal virtues, though in somewhat quaint language, observing that, compared with their Ancestors, English women in general have not increased in the "quantum of aberration."
The average price of Sugar, computed from the returns made for the week ending the 4th day of June, 1800, is sixty-three shillings and one penny half penny per hundred weight.
The average price of Rice, computed from the returns made for the week ending the 4th day of June, 1800, is thirty-four shillings and four pence three farthings per hundred weight.
A Dictionary, it seems, is preparing at Paris, which is to consist of terms brought into use by the Revolution. So much affected jargon was produced by that lamentable event that it is a pity such nonsense should be recorded. But whatever words this Dictionary may contain, none of them can be forcible enough to express the misery and the horror which that execrable event has occasioned.
Buonaparte is said to be in a very bad state of health, chiefly arising from the care and anxiety attendant upon his military and legislative toils. It is but right that such a man should suffer for his butcheries, and his usurpation. For the repose of Europe, embroiled by his ambition, every honest man may properly exclaim "would he were wasted, marrow, bones and all."
Mafena's frequent sorties have justly incurred the censure of all men, because they shew a prodigality of blood, without any hope of real advantage. It is surprising that the French soldiers have not yet discovered how regardless their commanders are of their lives, when any purpose of military pride is to be effected.
The Union, Bowler, from Charleston to England is captured. The Carpenter arrived at Liverpool.
FROM
BELL'S FOREIGN BULLETIN. Consisting of private Continental Correspondence &c.
BERLIN May 3.
The book entitled, Secret Memoirs relative to Russia, is the sole subject of conversation in this city, and a considerable difference of opinion prevails with respect to its character. While some persons regard it as an infamous libel, others, on the contrary, take every word of it for gospel.—Every one decides on it according to his particular political bias. Thus the Royalists revile it, because, as they imagine, in every page the author exposes himself as an innovator and a Republican; and the Revolutionists extol
it to the skies, because it boldly strips an Emperor of his Royal rinfel. I regard this work as a collection of shapeless stones, which, if cut by a fise, able, and steady hand, may one day form a column in the Temple of History. But the materials must not be indiscriminately employed.—Some are mere veins of chalk, sand, and clay, while others consist of marble or granite. The greater part of the anecdotes detailed by the author, are true, but a few of them are palpably false. The same observation may be applied to his conclusions, the pencil seems to tremble in his hand, and his touch is delicate of uniformity.
The work consists, of eighteen numbers; an enumeration of their titles will shew the degree of interest which each may possess, and their inconsistency as a whole:
No. 1. Projected Marriage of the King of Sweden with the Grand Duchess, the eldest daughter of Paul. 2. Details of the life of Catherine. 3. Favourites of Catherine, with their Portraits. 4. Accession of Paul to the throne, and his proceedings on becoming Emperor. 5. Has Paul any reason to dread the fate of Peter III.? his Portraits, with those of the Empress and the Grand Dukes, Alexander and Constantine; traits of the character of Paul, his principal Courtiers and Ministers, with various anecdotes. 6. What Revolutions has Russia to expect? 7. The National Character; 8. Religion; 9. Gynicoecry, or the influence, the character, and the manners of the Russian Women; 10. Education; 11. Frenchmen in Russia, &c. Such are the subject of which the author treats. We shall extract a few of the most striking passages:
Madame Lebrun, no less celebrated for her affairs of gallantry with Vaudreuil and Calonne than for her talents, intended to draw a portrait of Catherine II. after her death. The following advice was given her upon this occasion:—Let the map of Russia be your canvas, the darkness of ignorance your background, the spoils of Poland your drapery, human blood your colouring, your outline the monuments of her reign, and your shade the first six months of the reign of her son.
The author pretends that Paul is surrounded by abler Counsellors than his mother had. This might have been true at the time when he wrote; for Paul had not then dismissed the Kourakins, to whom he is stated to have owned both his throne and his life.
But the author immediately contradicts himself, by observing, that Catherine, in talking of her Ministers, represented them as a set of pumkinellos, whom she could manage at pleasure.
A personage who has a considerable share of influence at Court, is a Turkish valet de chambre, who was carried into slavery in his infancy and reared in the Palace. To this Turk, named Iwan Paulowitch, the Russian Generals and Grands s at present pay their Court.
Love is the strongest and the most pardonable of all our passions. Its excesses and its abuses are therefore, regarded as less odious; and the reign of mistresses will never be so humiliating as that of valets. Iwan Paulowitch is actually a Counsellor of State, and has the title of Excellency. He has, since the author wrote this book, received the order of St. Ann, and has been appointed Grand Huntsman and Grand Equery. It must however be observed, in justice to Iwan, that he is neither insolent nor wicked.

BY THIS DAY'S MAILS.
NEW-YORK, August 7.
IMPORTANT.
Yesterday morning arrived at the quarantine ground, the ship Providence, Adams, of Providence, mounting thirty-four 24. 18 and 6 pounders, from Barcelona, loaded with wine and brandy. Col. E. Gardner, owner and supercargo of this ship, has politely favoured us with the following minute:
"The ship Providence, of Providence, Rhode-Island, Captain Adams, left Barcelona on the evening of 17th June. On the 20th off west end of Majorca, spoke the British frigate Sea-Horse, having on board General Abercrombie, and three other English Generals, together with a company of artillery: they parted the day before from a fleet from Gibraltar, having troops on board for Minorca, or some other place in the Mediterranean. By a gentleman who left Certe on the 7th of June, information was received that the blockade of Genoa was raised; on which account there were great rejoicings in France; and all the Genoese vessels immediately taken into employ. Information was also received of the success of the French armies on the Rhine, and by several accounts from Cadiz, Marfeilles and Paris, the American Commissioners had closed the business of their mission with the deputies of the French nation, and waited only the arrival of the Chief Consul, who was then absent from Paris, with the army in Piedmont; it was said and believed, with a full determination of restoring to his crown, the King of Sardinia. "Passed Gibraltar 31 July, at 10 A. M. On the 28th, latitude 34. 30, longitude 69, 50, spoke the Schooner Favourite Elcy, McConnell, 9 days from Norfolk, bound to Jamaica; and the 1st August fell in with the British sloop of war, the Pheasant, who sent a boat on board, and would have persuaded us to have allowed him to carry us into Halifax; but which we declined—he pursued us 56 hours, then left us."
* Captain Gardner of this port.
Twelve years since, the whole United States, could support but two Banks; now they are increased to upwards of thirty; and we last week learnt (says the Centinel) the establishment of one at Westerly in Rhode-Island.
Extract of a letter from a gentleman in Gibraltar, to a respectable House in this city, dated June 10th, 1800.
"On the 30th arrived at this port by force of weather, the brig Georgia Packet, James Drummond, master, from Leghorn, for your port, with sundry merchandise. On the 22nd she left this and proceeded on her voyage, but in a few hours after being out, a French cruiser came up with her and ordered the master to follow him to Algiers, which they did for about half an hour—but on an English privateer heaving in sight, the French cruiser stood away, and captain Drummond altered his course to proceed on his voyage again, when the English privateer took him and brought him in here, and has libelled the vessel and cargo. He alleges as this was a blockaded port they would have made a prize of her; but as said blockade is on the part of Spain and not France, I do not see how it will be of any use to them."
CHARLESTON, July 25.
A letter dated Kingston, July 1, from Captain Shotwell, of the brig Harmony, of this port, owned by Messrs. William Somersall and Son, furnishes the pleasing intelligence of the trial and acquittal of the Harmony, and her cargo, which were carried in there some time ago.
It would appear from the following extract of a letter from Jamaica, says a correspondent, that while the British are carrying in our vessels for adjudication, under the false pretence of their being engaged in an illicit commerce, when they are met having on board cargoes the produce of the Spanish settlements, they feel no compunction at trading to those identical ports, when it can be done under the subterfuge of licenced vessels.
Extract of a letter received a few days ago, from a mercantile house in Kingston, to another in this city.
"Rice is now at 40s. some are asking more but we are confident from the quantity at market, and several cargoes daily arriving from New Orleans, where it can be purchased at least 30 per cent cheaper than with you, that it cannot be higher than 40s. Since making sale of yours, two cargoes from New Orleans have been sold at 36s. 8d. The trade from thence to this island is great and increasing daily."
DIED—On Thursday last after a short illness, Mr. Micah Johnson, Printer, of Massachusetts. His remains were yesterday afternoon interred in the burial ground of St. Philip's church.
SANDUSKY, 1st June, 1800.
The Chief of the Senekes and Wyandot nations to their brothers the White inhabitants on the waters of the Muskingum, near the old Kuskabbin.
Whereas some of our Young men having unknown to us and contrary to our wishes stolen horses from our brothers the White people, we have this day held a council of the Young men, and have accordingly been able to get back one of the horses and have left him in charge with William Speer a White man at our town, about twelve miles above Lower Sandusky.
Our brothers may be assured that our utmost endeavours shall not be wanting to get back the remaining part of the horses stolen by our young men, and leave them at the same place, and in future shall exhort our Young men when hunting near the settlement of the whites to leave their property at peace, particularly their horses.
Our brother must not think hard of our Nation at this place, on account of the horses taken by the Senekes this season for they may be assured that it was not the Young men residing among us here that has done the mischief, but mere stragglers, whose residence is no where.
We hope that your Head men will endeavour to keep your Young men at peace, for it is the determined will of us and our Nation to live on good terms with our brothers, and hope we shall in future have no more complaints of this nature: but if there should we hope they can be settled without coming to words. We will be happy that our brothers who have lost horses by our people, will come forward immediately for them, as it is our desire that an intercourse may still be kept up between our brothers and us, as usual, so that our women and children can go back and forward in peace. The horse alluded to, taken up and left in charge of William Speer is a forrel, branded on the left shoulder W B.
The above is the sense of ten more nations, who are of the same mind with ourselves and are determined to keep peace.
DUSSAWNANACUS. UNNOHAUGH.
By an officer of the United States army, who passed through this town on the 7th instant, from Knoxville, we are informed, that a war is likely to take place between the Choctaw and Chickasaw Indians. The cause of the dispute is said to be, that a Chickasaw chief erected a ferry on the Tennessee river, at the crossing place from Orleans to Kentucky. A chief of the Choctaws (Double-head) sent him word that he would erect a ferry on the opposite side of the river. The Chickasaw replied, that he would take his scalp if he attempted it. The two tribes have taken up the quarrel, and, as our informant says, are preparing for war. [Washington Telegraph.]
