EXTRACTS from Dr. ROWLEY'S Remarks on the cure of madness.
THE cure of madness from a perturbed mind, or passion long indulged, is to be attempted by the apparent gratification of the desire, or sometimes opposition, as far as mental cure extends.
Anger, whose intemperance is augmented by opposition, is easily calmed by silent neglect.
Pride, which commonly assumes great superciliousness and arrogance, and pretends to mental or bodily qualities it seldom possesses, is best soothed by affected obsequiousness and adulation.
Mad pride renders the possessors in their own imagination, persons of very great consequence. The proudly mad conceive themselves emperors, kings, or great personages, generals, rich merchants, &c. and they are generally tyrannical, pompous, obstinate, reserved, distant behaviors, and expect great homage; which if they receive not, are ferocious, vindictive, revengeful, or sullenly mischievous.
Pride in those who are not insane, is generally the concomitant of folly; and is commonly used as a masked battery to cover the defects of the mind, or acquire importance amongst the undiscerning vulgar: it is pitted by true wisdom, and ridiculed by wit.
Envy, which ever maliciously indulges itself in the misfortunes, mistakes, mental, or bodily defects of others, is happiest in hearing scandal and detraction, especially against those whose superior excellence is marked and acknowledged by mankind.
As its highest enjoyment is the misery of others, so its most pungent sensations of horror arises on viewing any elevation of sentiment or happiness.
Avarice or covetousness, which never enjoys what it possesses, but thirsts after wealth with an insatiable desire and sedulous attention, is rendered most easy by the contemplation and expectation of Peruvian mines.
Disappointed expectation, is no unfrequent cause of madness; or hopes frustrated, that have been long dwelling on future acquisitions. What is more disagreeable to the human mind than long suspense, or alternate hope, fear, and apprehension? Desperate attempts at suicide are often the consequences of disappointment: there is no remedy but setting bounds to human desires, many of which are chimeraical and unreasonable; but this is only practicable before the approach of insanity or desperation, which, when present, never listen to reasoning advice.
Love, that fiery flame, when lighted up in the human breast, consumes its votary, if not gratified with the object of mental attraction. It is a passion the least of all, perhaps governable by reason, and when productive of insanity, which, in proportion to its violence, is most approximate, is commonly incurable.
Jealousy is a sensation of suspicion, where the greatest confidence is expected. In both love and marriage it has produced suicide: its remedy is indifference to the object adored, or a philosophical resignation to infidelity. In France, and other warm countries, infidelity in a mistress or wife is a matter of common ladness, detection, or self murder.
Misfortunes in life, if nearly producing madness or desperation, are only curable by a timely alleviation of the present or expected distress. If from domestic unhappiness, from children or relations, vexation has produced madness. An apathy of soul feels nothing except for self; but great philanthropy earnestly engages in the conduct and welfare of all mankind, and has thousands of emotions and fears unknown to the insensible or torpid.
A nice sense of honour has produced rash suicide, or insanity from the most exquisite feelings; where such sentiments exist, nothing can be more inhuman than to torture them; they are the companions of the most elevated and noble minds. There has been instances of officers in the army committing suicide on only receiving a sharp reprimand for some trifling omission, from a superior officer. The experiencing neglect or rash treatment from relations or friends, where affections have been warm, have produced shocking instances of misery and insanity.
Unjust persecutions are amongst the causes of madness. In this country of liberty men of superior rank or fortune, even if accompanied with haughtiness, pride, or malignant dispositions, have little power to gratify malevolence; the greatest as well as the lowest being equally amenable to the laws. In other countries, superiors either in rank or profession have great power over inferiors. The modern education and philosophy have, however, softened the ferocity of all ranks; but yet there are too many instances, where, if mankind have an opportunity of doing mischief one to another, they seldom want the inclination.
* It was remarked, that on account of the famous South Sea bubble, many who were ruined became mad.
† An anecdote of the medical kind, though it gives no lustre to the professional character of the party, yet ought here to be mentioned, as a most inhuman trait of a man, who has figured in an elevated medical situation.
While I was at Vienna the following was recent: Baron Van Swieten, physician to the late empress, considered by many, not the most successful practitioner, and who all the world knows was a rigid Boerhaavian, had attended a lady of some rank in the droppsy, and the Baron followed the Boerhaavian doctrines implicitly, but without the least success, and declared the case incurable; asserting, that any
The persons most capable of gratifying rancor at the expence of honor or justice, are the haughty, proud, mean, and envious. The objects of persecutions are those commonly, who excel in mental; or who acquire great reputation from real merit, liberality and probity.
The remedies against malevolence, are patient forbearance, perseverance in rectitude, foresight of future mischief, and a manly opposition to its wily snares, and a many cunning inventions. Integrity, disinterested, and resolution, are terrors to the proud, mischievous, or designing, and formidable shields against artifice, dissimulation, or unjust persecution.
Where an exquisite sensibility pervades the human frame, without a masculine habit of body and mind; long continued vexation has been productive of insane grief, melancholy, and suicide.
The consciousness of immorality has caused despondency, desperation, and lastly, insanity or suicide.
Injustice, cruelty, or murder, have tortured the perpetrators and actors with the most pungent mental torments. The paths of strict justice are straight and happy; those of injustice, low cunning, and deception, full of dangers, disgrace, and mazed perplexities. True wisdom always pursues the former: left-handed wisdom, with various degrees of artifice, the latter. The recollection of barbarity or injustice, though it may have answered a temporary interested purpose, has stung the parties afterwards with remorse, horror, despair, melancholy; they have been haunted with a thousand hideous imaginary spectres. Medicine seldom avails here, when the guilty mind, preying on its own depravity, has become insane.
Change of situation, reparation of injuries, the conversation of friends, and attempts to divert the mind from its melancholy pressure, are the chief aids under such miserable circumstances.
The heart suddenly dilated by over joy, has produced madness; therefore good intelligence should be delivered with prudence and circumspection.
physician who undertook to cure, deserved the appellation of a. Dr. Hirneis, a popular physician in this city, much esteemed for his humanity, skill, and gentleness, of manners, was called and soon cured the patient by methods not mentioned in Boerhaave. The lady wished to recompense the worthy Dr. but he declined excepting any pecuniary reward, and only requested the patient to go to Baron Van Swieten, and prove by cured demonstration, that the as bad cured what the as could not, alluding to the overgrown pride of the court physician. The Baron inflamed at the cure being performed by methods he was unacquainted with, meditated and accomplished the destruction of the doctor for curing the patient, contrary to his opinion and prognostic. The Baron had sufficient power with the empress to have Dr. Hirneis banished from that city to Paffau, by which the unfortunate man lost all his practice, and he, with a numerous family, were reduced to poverty.
On the death of the empress the pretender emperor was applied to, in order to restore the doctor, who had been in exile twenty years. The emperor perhaps, not being disposed to shew disrespect to his imperial mother's memory, or to her favorite physician, denied the request: but after the death of Baron Van Swieten the exiled doctor was suffered to return to Vienna. In his twenty years absence his principal friends had died; he soon found his practice was unlikely to be restored and he expired a short time after at Vienna from extreme grief, or, some say a shorter means. Thus an able practitioner fell a victim to medical success through the mortified pride and tyranny of a powerful, but mean, court physician.
In a learned profession like ours, the very basis of which should be founded in gentleness, humanity, and the perfection of acquired excellence and science;—no such narrowness of soul should exist, as to be envious at the success of another. Wherever the dawnings of industry and superiority of medical knowledge appear, they should be cherished, protected, and brought forward, to benefit society. In this happy country of liberty, physicians are upon a more equal rank; real abilities, & successful practice, will always procure friends and protectors, which no professional envy can crush; nor can court edicts be obtained to banish useful physicians from serving mankind in the manner most agreeable to their skill and inclinations. The royal college of physicians in London alone have the power of interdicting improper persons from practising within seven miles of this metropolis; but it is hoped the censors of that learned body never have, nor will exercise such power, from personal pique, or envious motives; but on the liberal principles of the salus populi , in the suppression of quacks and impostors; for which purpose charters were granted, extraordinary powers delegated.
From the Morning Chronicle, of April 24.
TRIAL OF WARREN HASTINGS, Esq.
ONE HUNDRED AND FORTY-NINTH DAY.
Yesterday this celebrated trial, which began on the 12th February, 1788, came to a decision. The Hall was as much crowded as on the first day. The splendor of the Assembly, from the number of Ladies, it is impossible to describe. Mr. Fox and the rest of the Managers came into their box at twelve o'clock. The Peers entered the Hall half an hour after-wards.
Proclamation being made in the usual way, Warren Hastings, Esq. and his Bail, came into the Court, and was directed to withdraw.
The Lord Chancellor then stood up, and said that the Lords had upon Friday last resolved that judgment should be given this day on the charges of High Crimes and Misdemeanors brought by the House of Commons against Warren Hastings, Esq.
The following are the resolutions which they entered into, and the questions to be put to the Lords severally:

Is Warren Hastings, Esq. guilty, or not guilty, of high crimes and misdemeanors, charged upon him by the Commons in the sixth article of charge, in so far as relates to his having, in October, 1780, taken and received from Kellaram, on behalf of himself and a certain person called Culliam Sing, a sum of money amounting to four lacks of rupees, in consideration of letting to them certain lands in the Province of Bahar in perpetuity, contrary to his duty, and to the injury of the East-India Company?

The Lord Chancellor held in his hand a list of the Peers present, and who had taken their seats in their robes before the Throne. Those Peers who did not mean to vote retired behind the Throne.
The noble Lord then began with the junior Peer present, in the following manner:
George Lord Douglass, is Warren Hastings, Esq. guilty or not guilty of high crimes and misdemeanors, charged by the Commons in the first article of charge?—Lord Douglass stood up, took off his hat, and laying his right hand upon his heart, pronounced—Not guilty, upon my honor.
As soon as they had gone through all the 16 questions, the Lord Chancellor said, it appears that there is a great majority for the acquittal of the prisoner on each of the articles; I am, therefore, pursuant to your Lordship's directions, to declare that Warren Hastings, Esq. is acquitted of all the Charges of Impeachment brought against him by the Commons, and of all the matter contained therein.
Mr. Hastings was then called to come into Court; he came into his box; and knelt in the usual way; the Chancellor desired him to rise, and addressed him in these words:—
"Warren Hastings, you are acquitted of all the Charges of Impeachment brought against you by the Commons, and of all the matter contained therein; you and your bail, therefore, are discharged."
Mr. Hastings bowed to the House. The Lord Chancellor moved that their Lordships do adjourn to their Chamber of Parliament.—Ordered.
The Court broke up at half after two o'clock.
Mr. Burke was not present yesterday in Westminster-Hall.
Not one of the Peers who had taken their seats in the House of Lords, since the trial commenced, yesterday gave judgment, except Lord Fife, who was created in 1790.
From the Aurora.
If the Citizen, who in the Philadelphia Gazette of the 3d inst. proposed a mode of building which seems to have the solidity and duration of brick or stone houses, and much cheaper than wooden houses, can realize the hope which he gives, it would be of great advantage to this country, not only by putting a stop to the clamors raised against the ordinance lately issued by the Corporation to prevent building frame houses, but also by saving an immense quantity of wood which is daily consumed in brick kilns.
If at the same time the rich class of citizens would adopt some economical method of warming their houses, such as the ancient Romans, who warmed whole houses by the fire of their kitchens. or as the Hollanders, who are well acquainted with methods of warming several rooms with one fire, or by the ingenious stove proposed last year by Mr. Oliver Evans, which well deserves the attention of the public; it would tend in a great degree to lessen the consumption of fuel, and relieve the poorer part of the citizens who suffer most by the dearness, which will increase in proportion to the population.
As few brick makers would be wanted, the brick makers would be at a loss to find employment; let them make tiles, until they can remove their kilns at a distance from the City, until we can find some durable substance which requires no fire to prepare it, such as slate, to cover our houses, and remove the continual fears arising from the combustible materials of which they are composed.
Nature has spread with profusion all over our territories the most useful metals, and has not refused us the slate, which is so much used in Europe.
Should the Legislature think it below their dignity to encourage such buildings, or researches to find out and explore slate quarries; are there not among us patriotic citizens who will undertake it.
If such an emulation cannot take place, let the public at large not neglect the means which are offered to them, let all citizens unite to preserve our dwellings our lives, from a scourge of which we experience too often the dreadful effects. We have repeatedly relieved unhappy sufferers from fire by subscription;—would not such assistance be better applied to preventing an evil, than to repair it partially when it is done.

PHILADELPHIA, June 24
We hear that The following officers of the French Republic were recognized by the President of the United States on the 22d inst. viz:
 Citizen Philippe Joseph Letomb Consul General within the United States.  Theodore Charles Mozard—Consul N. Hampshire, Massachusetts and R. Island.  Jean Antoine Bernard Rozier, Consul—New-York and New-Jersey.  Leon Delauney Consul—Pennsylvania and Delaware.  Louis Etienne Duhaill Consul—Maryland. 
MR. FENNO. It is truly distressing to read the lamentations of THE PEOPLE, in Bache's paper; why do not the Senate gratify THE PEOPLE by admitting their angry Secretaries to a seat amongst them?—From the general fit in that paper, we may rest assured that something is brewing, and, unless the people are shortly informed what sort of a treaty the quoniam Chief Justice has made, dreadful consequences may be expected.
By this Day's MAILS.
From the American Minerva. NEW-YORK, June 23.
Our readers will perceive, that the following does not corroborate the "Present state of Holland," as published in yesterday's Gazette: Extract from a letter, lately received in this city, from an American gentleman now residing in Holland, of undoubted information and candor.
"The Hague, April 26, 1795. "We have had occasion to see, and converse repeatedly, with the French representatives here in millions, and with the generals who command the armies. We are also constantly in the midst of the troops, who are quartered, in considerable numbers, thro' all the cities of this country."
"The national character discovers itself in the most unequivocal manner, and in its most amiable forms. It becomes the more conspicuous, from the comparison with that of this people; and affords a speculation equally interesting to the philosopher and the philanthropist. It is almost inconceivable that characters so opposite, and in such relative situations to one another, should harmonize so well as they do. The gaiety, the good humour, the vivacity, and the vanity of the French, never abandon them: and, with so much reason to be vain as those at present here have, it would indeed be surprising if they had taken this for the moment of reformation, in that respect."
"This vanity, which scarcely any of them has the art to conceal, is the only circumstance that can, in the smallest degree, balance the laudable part of their conduct. The discipline of the troops is accurate and unexceptionable. We scarcely have heard of an instance of pillage, or of violence: the soldiers have nothing like insolence in their manners; and the officers, high in rank, have all the politeness and urbanity that ever distinguished that extraordinary people. The representatives are members of the Convention, who follow the armies, and have an authority almost unlimited over them. The command of the generals is merely military. They are all men remarkably young: I have scarcely met with a man of forty years old among them."
"Pichegru was the General in Chief at the time of their arrival. He is since removed to the command of the armies of the Rhine and Moselle. He is equally esteemed by the army and by the Convention; who, as you will see by the papers, gave him a very confidential command, on an occasion lately critical to themselves. His popularity appears to be unmingled with the jealousy which has been so fatal to all his predecessors; and his removal from this army was rather the effect of confidence, than of fear; as it was for the purpose of placing him in a more active situation, than that in which he must have remained in Holland."
"His personal appearance has nothing remarkable. His manners are pleasing; and his conversation particularly distinguished by a modesty which is the more striking, because it is so uncommon. With many others, I is the hero of each tale; and you hear of nothing but their courage, their sufferings, their victories, their humanity, their triumphs, and their moderation; all which, though certainly well founded, would come with a better grace from other mouths than their own."
"But nothing of this kind escapes from Pichegru; who appears to prefer any other conversation to that the subject of which is himself, his army, or his nation; and who, when they are introduced, speaks of them with moderation and simplicity."
"We have had, as you may well suppose, a tolerably dull winter. When we arrived here, the last October, the country was invaded. The government
at that time—but peace be to its ashes! Its virtues and its frailties are now gone to sleep with their fathers, and it would not become me to pronounce their funeral eulogy. But when we arrived, they had discovered the inefficacy of their carnal weapons, and as an instrument of deliverance, had addicted themselves to prayer. They fared none the better for it; their enemies represented it as a kind of repentance in articulo mortis, better calculated to prove guilt than to obtain remission. The effect, however, was an universal gloom & sadness; which was augmented by the prohibition of all public diversions. The winter came on. It was the severest ever known. For eleven weeks the canals and rivers were frozen over; and, in the midst of its most rigorous extremity, a singular political operation, half conquest, half revolution, toppled down headlong the government and constitution of the country. Since that time, the theatres have been opened; a few concerts, balls, public dinners, fetes, &c. have been given; but, except among the French guests, very little cheerfulness and gaiety have been visible."
"In the mean while, our time has not hung heavy upon our hands. The magnitude of events following one another, in such rapid succession around us; the novelty and importance of the political scenes of which we were witnesses; together with the attention to our own concerns, and the use of some valuable books, served as a full employment of our time: and, if we had not been almost entirely deprived of communication from our friends, we should have no reason to complain of tediousness."
"Amid the din of arms, the muses meet with the same fate as the laws. The penury of literature, science, and the arts, throughout Europe, is as great as that of provisions. In France, the objects in which all genius and talents are concentrated, are those of government or of war. Their Generals have had the merit of introducing a new mode of warfare, and the brilliancy of their success proves the superiority of their system. In the National Convention, since the fall of Robespierre and his tyranny, eloquence has been cultivated and improved; the interests of the European nations, the laws and customs resulting from their intercourse, and the principles of negotiations, have commanded the attention of many members, whom the Revolution alone has brought into action. The admiration which the people are always inclined to bestow upon the declamatory style of oratory still perverts the taste of their speakers; and in the numerous discourses which are pronounced in the assembly scarce a single exception can be found to their general character; which substitutes epigrams instead of arguments, fine turned periods instead of reasoning, and poetry instead of demonstration."
"An enthusiastic attachment to the arts and sciences, is, however, one of the fashionable professions of the day. Among the former, Music, among the latter, Natural Philosophy, and in particular, Chemistry enjoy the most extraordinary favor. Every thing, in that Country, has some relation with their revolution. Their excessive fondness for music arises from their opinion of its powerful operations as an instrument upon the popular passions. Its effects upon them have given credibility to the story of Tyræus; and almost realized the Fables of Orpheus and Amphion. Their chemical pursuits have an application no less important to the necessities of their situation and enabled them to convert substances, before, deemed the most worthless, into weapons of war. The passion for theatrical representations is also stronger than it ever was, at any preceding period; but their Dramatic genius has always been fettered with the shackles of occasional popular opinions; and their stage, instead of animating the productions of Poets destined to immortality; has been a mere echo of the momentary sounds which the perpetual variations of the public frenzy have emitted, under the name of public opinion. The vandalism of political intolerance has extended its proscriptions to the models of the modern Drama; and the High priests of the scenic Muses have been ignominiously driven from their Temple; as seducers to Aristocracy, and provokers to Royalism."
FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE.
LONDON, April 16. BRITISH PARLIAMENT. HOUSE OF LORDS. Tuesday, April 14.
Earl Spencer rose in pursuance of the notice which he gave yesterday to move the Thanks of the House to Admiral Hotham for the victory which he obtained over the French fleet in the Mediterranean.
The noble Earl observed, that the victory for which he proposed their Lordships to vote their Thanks, was the effect of the skill and bravery of the gallant Admiral whom he had named, and also to the courage of those who were under him in command. Such victories, he thought, should always be acknowledged and rewarded with the highest honor their Lordships could bestow. He should have thought it unnecessary to say any thing on the subject more than barely to move the Thanks of the House, had he not yesterday understood that one noble Lord intended to make some observations upon the subject. He was induced, however, to think that that noble Lord would not oppose the motion, with which he intended to conclude; for the importance of the victory he alluded to was undeniable. If any thing remained imperfect in the account of that event, it arose out of the modesty with which the gallant Admiral had transmitted it, and of the different terms in which he conveyed the information of a victory which was so much owing to his own merit. By this victory the naval superiority of Great Britain had been maintained; and for such services he was confident their Lordships were ready to bestow their praise, and the public to acknowledge their obligation. He concluded with moving, "That the Thanks of this House be given to Vice-Admiral Hotham, for his meritorious services in the command of his Majesty's fleet lately stationed in the Mediterranean."
His Lordship observed, that if his motion should be carried, as he had no doubt it would, he should follow it up with other motions of Thanks to Admiral Goodall, Sir Hyde Parker, and all the officers, together with acknowledgment and approbation of the services of the men on board the fleet, &c.
The question of Thanks to Admiral Hotham being put,
The Earl of Lauderdale rose. He observed, that the noble Earl who had made this motion had conjectured rightly, when he expected that he should make some observations on this subject, although he should not oppose the motion in particular. He objected, however, in general to the practice of voting thanks indiscriminately for all victories. He thought that the service was not honoured by placing on the same footing of merit, the victory of the first of June, and the taking of Bahia! He was of opinion that a great difference ought to be made between a splendid victory and a trivial advantage, but Ministers had of late confounded them, by coming forward to move thanks indiscriminately to Lord Hood and Lord Howe. This practice, however, had been confined a good deal to our naval operations, for, with the single exception of Sir Charles Grey, Ministers had, by the wisdom of their plans, contrived to keep our military force clear from any chance of receiving the Thanks of that House for the exertion of its Commanders. With regard to any difference that might be felt on this occasion, he owned he had not any, as far as regarded Admiral Hotham; his difference arose from the London Gazette. He perceived in the account of this very victory, in actual engagement with Admiral Hotham, the very ships which were stated by the Gazette to be destroyed by Lord Hood at Toulon, and others so disabled as to be totally unfit for service. Now he wished to know with what propriety their Lordships could rely on the last account of the victory of Admiral Hotham, when they found the account of the affair of Toulon so fallacious. By this mode of proceeding their Lordships were to thank two Admirals for destroying the same force, that was a double vote of Thanks for one and the same act. And possibly, hereafter, Ministers would come forward to thank some other English Admiral for destroying these very ships a third time. Upon these considerations he thought their Lordships should institute an inquiry before they voted thanks in future. He admitted that the London Gazette had formerly indeed been a vehicle of intelligence, on which the public might rely, but since the commencement of the present war, experience had taught us to regard it in many instances as a publication to deceive us.
Earl Spencer said, that the noble Earl might with the exertion of very little ingenuity, have discovered that the very ships which bore the same names as those destroyed by Lord Hood at Toulon, might have been built on the keels of those which had been burnt to the water's edge. The Ville de Paris would soon be at sea, and should it be taken by the enemy, and should it be proposed in the National Convention to thank the Admiral for such an achievement, any member of that Convention might start up with as much propriety as the noble Earl now did, and say that the Ville de Paris had been sunk many years ago. The noble Earl might amuse himself and their Lordships as much as he thought fit, but the observations he had made did not appear to him to be quite applicable to the subject.
The Earl of Lauderdale said, that with regard to ingenuity he did not pretend to use any, he left the noble Earl to draw as often as he pleased upon his great stock in trade of that article, in which there was no fear of his ever feeling any deficiency. He had indeed given an instance of it this day. With regard to the idea of his attempting to amuse himself, he could only say, that he, in attending that House, had something in view more important than amusement. He attended his duty as a Peer of Parliament, to call Ministers to their duty, and to do all he could to undeceive the public. What the noble Earl had just said, was a proof of the necessity of these observations. The information which he had given to the House was serious and alarming indeed, for he had told the House that the ships which had
been alluded to, might have been built on the keels of those which had been burnt to the water's edge by Lord Hood at Toulon. What was this but confessing the superiority of the enemy to us in building ships of war. What he had stated with regard to the Gazette, he must repeat, and he would add, that the accounts in it were studiously fallacious. It was now a publication to deceive the public, and on which the present Administration endeavoured to build their narrow fame.
Earl Spencer said a few words in explanation, and observed that the question before their Lordships was, whether the victory obtained over the enemy by Admiral Hotham, was such as merited the thanks of that House.
The question was then put and carried.
April 3. THE STATE OF PARIS.
Isabeau—"I am come from the Committee of General Safety, to give you an account of the execution of your decree of yesterday. The Committee, with to present a very detailed Report, but it is not yet finished, on account of there being 3000 documents to be examined relative to the events of that day."
"It will be pointed out to you who are the authors of the opposition to the execution of the law. The citizen Prevost, commander of a squadron on the 14th July, was very near being killed. Ruffet, the temporary commandant, received a pistol ball in his body. It penetrated his coat, waistcoat, shirt, and buried itself in his flesh. Yet he remained on horseback for six hours afterwards without having the wound dressed or the ball extracted. (Loud applause.) His assassin is taken up."
"After having committed this crime the assassin ran to an armed force, which he thought belonged to his party, crying out, "I have killed Ruffet, here is the pistol which did the business." He was deceived, it was a party belonging to the section of L. Pelletier, which immediately arrested him. He has confessed the crime; his trial will be short. The commotion which took place in the evening was excited by absurd reports. The carriages were unharnessed, the horses killed, and the persons in the carriages carried with a kind of triumph to the Committee of General Safety. Measures have been adopted in secret, and the arrested persons are where they ought to be."
The true National Guard shewed themselves firm and obedient to the decrees of the Convention. Gen. Pichegru was twice surrounded by the disaffected, and behaved with all that coolness which distinguishes his courage. The disaffected occupied a position in the centre of the Elysian Fields. They there kept up a fire of musketry, which killed only some horses. They also fired two pieces of cannon which did no harm. (Applause.)
Boissy d'Anglas observed, that the Committee of Public Safety had not Members enough to transact the multiplicity of business which engaged their attention day and night. He moved, that the number of Members be increased to sixteen. (Decreed.)
Anguis read an Address from the Lyonesse, who declared themselves ready to fly to Paris, to defend the National Convention, if the troops at Paris should be found insufficient to guard the sacred Assembly. This Address had twenty pages of signatures. After an eulogium on the inhabitants of Lyons, from Borel and Merlin of Thionville, the Convention decreed, that the Address should be printed and sent to all the Departments.
Bourdon de l'Oise—"Nothing now remains to be done but to put the Finances in order. There is one man, Cambon, who certainly possesses much probity, but who has, nevertheless, lost the public confidence. I think he ought no longer to remain in the Committee of Finance. He will feel himself the necessity of giving in his resignation." (Loud Applause.)
Cambon—"I know how to sacrifice every thing, even my life. I was appointed to the Committee of Finance. I have still a month to remain in it. I do not know what it is to quit my post. I shall give an account of my actions, and I shall wait for reward or punishment. I must submit to the decision of the majority. I have never been of the opinions of the day. I always waited to see the result of those opinions. My fortune is known. I have been a merchant for five years. Thirty three years I have laboured to maintain my family."
Bourdon de l'Oise—"Cambon may have the best intentions, but the public opinion is wholly against him. My colleague must either have the generosity to give in his resignation, or you must decree as a measure of policy that he shall no more assist at the deliberations of the Committee of Finance."
Cambon—"The majority may condemn me—I will await their decision." The Convention decreed that Cam-
bon should no longer be one of the Committee of Finance. (Loud applause.)
Penieres moved, that in future no more than 20 persons of a deputation, should be admitted to the bar, in order that the Convention might not be insulted with disaffected persons.
Merlin of Douai observed, that the motion was unnecessary, as there existed a law on the subject. It was then moved, that the law should be again promulgated. Referred to the Committees.
NATIONAL CONVENTION. 15 Germinal—April 4.
General Pichegru appeared at the bar. He returned the convention thanks for the marks of confidence with which he had been honored. He praised the activity and zeal of the Parisian national guard, and expressed his joy at having assisted in the re-establishment of order. He promised to inform the army of the measures adopted to destroy a tyrannic faction.
He promised to tell the defenders of the country that they had no longer to fear that executioners would shed on the scaffold the blood of their relatives and friends, at the very time they were shedding their own blood on the frontiers. "The Convention" concluded General Pichegru, "wishes only for liberty and justice; the people will support the convention, and the army will make France triumphant."
Andre Dumont moved, that the President should give General Pichegru the fraternal embrace. (Decreed.) The General received the embrace amidst universal acclamations. Andre Dumont intreated the Convention not to lose that energy which they had shown on the 12th of Germinal, and to consolidate the Republic by destroying the remnant of tyranny. "You see," he exclaimed, "those who preached rebellion in this hall, and who wished to excite you to massacre. Thuriot is not the only one of these persons. The committee will to-day present you a report. We do not thirst for their blood. We will only to make it impossible for them to do any further injury. Preserve, as Pichegru says, that imposing attitude, which has annihilated your enemies."
Gen. Pichegru's speech was ordered to be printed.
Prieux, of Le Marne, at whom Dumont had glanced, entered upon his defence. The Convention passed to the order of the day.
Penieres said, that Robespierre favored twenty members with his confidence; thirteen were already punished; it was necessary, however, to punish the remainder.
Claudel considered the motion as dangerous, and likely to serve the cause of the Royalists and terrorists. The order of the day was passed.
Baillet moved, that Gen. Pichegru should remain at Paris until the committee of general safety had presented their report.
Deleclou observed, that the convention might rely upon the zeal and courage of the Parisian guard.
The Convention proceeded to the election of members of the committee of public safety, in the room of Dubois Crance, Boissy d'Anglas and Andre Dumont, who went out by rotation.
BOSTON, June 18.
The proceeds of last Monday evening's performance, at the Theatre, we are informed amounted to 666 dollars, the whole of which sum Mr. POWELL has generously deposited in the hands of his Honor MOSES GILL, President of the Massachusetts Charitable Fire Society, as a donation to their funds.
EDENTON, June 11.
Capt. White, of the Schooner Alice, from Boston, on his passage to this port, spoke off Cape Hatteras, the brig Thomas Bray master, of Bollen, 3 days out from Norfolk, entirely dismasted, and in a very distressed situation: the wind being high prevented Capt. White from going on board.

1. CHARLOTTE, a Tale of Truth; by Mrs. Rowson, of the NEW THEATRE, Philadelphia. Second American edition, price 75 cents. [The rapid sale of the first edition of this inter- esting novel, in a few months, is the best proof of its merit.] Extract from the Critical Review, Ap. 1793 p. 468 It may be a tale of truth, for it is not un- natural, and it is a tale of real distress— Charlotte by the artifice of a teacher, re- commended to a school from humanity ra- ther than a conviction of her integrity; of the regularity of her former conduct, is en- ticed from her governess, and accompanies a young officer to America—The marriage ceremony, if not forgotten, is postponed, and Charlotte dies a martyr to the in- constancy of her lover, and treachery of his friend.—The situations are artless and af- fecting—the descriptions natural and pa- thetic; we should feel for Charlotte if such a person ever existed, who for one error, scarcely, perhaps deserved so severe a pu- nishment. If it is a fiction, poetic justice is not, we think, properly dis- played. 2. The Inquisitor—by Mrs. Rowson, Se- cond Philadelphia edition. 87 1/2 cents 3.

EXTRACT FROM THE PREFACE. The authors have presumed to affix to their title the epithet Impartial ; and the reason is, because they cannot charge them- selves with feeling the smallest bias to any party, but that of truth and liberty; and they flatter themselves, that their readers will find not only every circumstance fairly represented, but every censurable action, whoever were the authors or actors, marked in its proper colors. It was necessary to make a declaration of their own princi- ples, they would say, they are neither tory nor republican—they love liberty as Eng- lish whigs, and execrate every criminal act by which no noble cause is endangered and disgraced.
In the present ferment of the public mind, they cannot flatter themselves with the hopes of seeing this claim universally acknowledged. On the contrary, they are well assured that these pages will not be acceptable to the zealots of either party. But when time shall dilute the clou of political deception, they with some confidence expect that verdict from public opinion, which candor and moderation seldom fail to receive.

Treasury Department Revenue Office, April 14, 1795 PROPOSALS Will be received at the Office of the Commissioner of the Revenue, FOR BUILDING A LIGHT HOUSE, On Seagull Island, near the mouth of Kenne- beck river, on the coast of the District of Maine; of the following Materials, Di- mensions and Description.
The form is to be an Octagon. The foun- dation is to be of stone, to be sunk, if prac- ticable, thirteen feet below the bottom of the wooden work, or twelve feet and an half be- low the surface of the earth, and to be com- menced of the diameter of twenty seven feet. It is to be laid solidly to the height of two feet. From thence to the bottom of the wood- en work, the foundation wall is to be eleven feet high, and six feet thick.
As it is intended that the above described stone foundation shall only be carried six inches higher than the crown level of the knoll or rock on which the Light-house is to be erected, and it may be found impossible, on account of the rock, to sink the fame to the depth of twelve feet and one half below the earth, or thirteen feet below the wooden work, it is necessary that the propositions for the said stone foundation be made by the perch to include all costs, charges and expenses of materials, workmanship and labor.
The octagonal pyramid is to be well fram- ed, and of front heart line timber. It is to be twenty six feet in diameter at the base, there- of where it will rest on the top of the stone foundation, to which it is to be well secured by sixteen stout iron straps built therein and otherwise. The height of the wooden build- ing from the bottom of the water table and from the surface of the earth, is to be forty feet to the top of the wooden work, under the floor of the lantern; where the diameter is to be fifteen feet. The foundation is to be capped with sawed stone at least eight inches wide, and sloped at top to turn off the wa- ter.
The frame of the pyramid is to be covered with boards of one inch and one half in thickness, over which is to be laid a good & complete covering of shingles, and well painted with three coats. The light house is to have two windows in the East, and two win- dows in the West. The sashes are to be hung with hinges, and each sash is to have eight panes of glass, eight by ten inches.
On the top of the wooden work of the pyramid is to be a strong framed tier of joists, bedded therein, planked over with oak plank extending one foot beyond the sides of the pyramid, thereby forming an eave, which is to be finished by a cornice, the whole hav- ing a descent from the center, sufficient to throw off the water, and to be covered with copper.
A complete and sufficient iron Lantern in the octagonal form is to rest thereon; the eight corner pieces or stanchions of which are to be well secured to the upright timbers of the pyramid, or to the tier of joists, or both. These stanchions are to be very strong and stout in the lower ten feet, and three and one-half inches by two and one-half inches a- bove. The Lantern is to be ten feet high, from the floor to the bottom of the dome or roof, and to have a dome or roof of five feet in height. The whole space between the poles to be occupied by the sashes, which are to be moulded on the inside and struck solid. Each sash is to have twenty-eight large panes of glass; a part of the sash on the south-west side is to be hung with hinges for a door to go out on the platform. The iron rafters of the lantern are to be framed into an iron hoop, over which is to be a copper funnel;— thro' which the smoke may pass into a large copper ventilator in the form of a man's head; capable of containing one hundred gallons. This head is to be turned by a large vane, so that the hole for venting the smoke may be always to leeward. Eight dormant ventilators are to be fixed in the roof, a large curved air pipe is to be passed thro' the floor and a cloic stove is to be provided and fixed in the lantern. There are to be a pair of stairs ascend- ing to the lantern, the entrance to which is to be a trap door covered with copper. The building is to be furnished with two complete electrical conductors or rods with points. The floors are to be laid with plank, of at least one inch and one half in thickness. The entrance to the Light-House is to be well secured by a strong door hung upon hinges, with a strong lock and latch complete.
Also a frame Dwelling House of one story and the roof, to be twenty six feet or there- about in front, and twenty five feet deep, with a cellar, under it, if it shall be found practi- cable to dig it. The cellar walls to be eight- een inches thick, and seven feet high. The story of the House to be seven feet and one half in clear. The roof to have an octagonal pitch. The floors to be laid in whole lengths nailed through. The House is to contain a Kitchen of thirteen by sixteen feet, a sitting room adjoining lengthwise of twelve by fifteen feet, two small chambers of eight by nine feet joining the ends of the Kitchen and sitting room, with a passage to those two rooms between the bed rooms. The stack of chimneys is to be between the Kitchen and sit- ting room and is to have two plain fire places, one of them large for a kitchen; to which is to be joined an Oven. There is to be an out- er door to the passage and an outer door also to the Kitchen. There are to be two win- dows in each of the large rooms, and one in each bed room.
A well is to be sunk at a convenient distance, and furnished with a curb, bucket, rope, and completely. The builder is to procure and pay, for all materials, labor, workmanship provisions and other objects of cost charge, or expense for a sum to be proposed and agreed upon, and to execute the before described work, and every part thereof in a good and workman like manner. Convenient payments or advances, on secu- rity, will be made. April 17.

This Day is Published, AND FOR SALE BY THOMAS DOBSON, At the STONE HOUSE, No. 41 South Second St. A View of the Evidences of CHRISTIANITY.
IN THREE PARTS. 1. Of the direct Historical Evidence of Christianity, and wherein it is distinguished from the Evidence of other miracles. 2. Of the Auxiliary Evidence of Christian- ity. 3. A brief consideration of some popular Objections. By WILLIAM PALEY, M. A. Archdeacon of Carlisle. In One large Octavo volume. Price one dol- lar and three quarters, handsomely bound. In the present enlightened age, when false discernment has opened the eyes of mankind, and the fabrics of Deism and Superstition are crumbling to the dust, it becomes an ob- ject of no small importance, to distinguish leading Truths from those Counterfeits which had assumed their names and usurped their place, and in the subversion of which, Truth itself is too apt to be discarded without in- quiry. In the present work, the learned author (who had before distinguished himself by his principles of moral and political Philosophy) has treated the subject with that ability and can- dor which becomes it, and has exhibited in a short compass, perhaps the clearest and most distinct view of the proper evidences of christi- anity ever published.
