" Gentlemen, I cannot. forbear beginning the few
words which I shall have to address to you this day,
with an-expression of exultation at the volnntary and.
honourable exertions _which the independence of the
County has made in its own behalf and in mine, and
•by which I am placed in so respectable a situation
on the Poll. The alteration in the state of .the Poll
Vithin the last three days, and the zeal manifested
by you at this late period of the Elation, to come
forward in my favour, convince me, that though
the independence, of . the County. may have been
stifled for a ,eason, it is not extina ; and that the
. calumnies and misrepresentations propagated against
if they could beat any time listened to lbr those
- AiVho knew me, have now lost their effect, and are
worn off. I can with- confidence assure you, that
the number of Freeholders still. remaining unpolled•
- is more than sufficient to turn the'Poll itr my favour,
if exertions are properly clireeted to that .etlea. At
• all events, whatever may hethe issue, you-shall find
that I shall not fail, but shall attend het;e and.give
an opportunity to theindependent interest of the
County, of asserting its ,own. rights.- When see

1:311 the independence of the County.. I have, on two
•or three different•occasions during the present Eke-

entertained, and do now entertain, QS to the situation
of the Country: Jf your sentiments. are 'similar to

independence, in electing me your Representative :
but if'you do not•agreeAvith me in those sentiments,
Lam a very. unfit person to represent you in Puha-
. tnent. I have, from my very first entrance into
political life, I#een decidedly of opinion, that the
-system pursued in the administration of the of firs
of this Country was one most inimical to its best
interests. This opinion I have never made any scru-
. 'vie of declaring: I have, so far as my ability ex-
tended, done every thing in tny,power to remedy the
• -evil, and; if possible, to bring back things to the si-
- -Nation in which they stood during the best days of
• •
our.old times. I have never understood, that Bas-
• files, barracks, workhouses, soup.shops, and all the
t't caliTas of the present system, formed- any. part
of the appedakes of former times. [Disakprobation
_.• lwried in applauses.] Certain persons near me, I
Itave no doubt, think that I allude to them, and do
.-mot wish to lear that system decried of Which they
_• have been the supporters. An ulcei, however, to
be cured, must be probed to the bottom. The evils
. to- which .1 have alluded, and which I condemn, I
• again- state, aie not, to my mind, of the genuine,
gli-owth or produce of the British • Clonstitution:—

Gentleman near me, who has uniformly approved
•of the present system, and to desert me, who have
as uniformly exposed it. In -retiring this day,. I can'
with safety assure you that the result, be it one
way, or the othet, will be perfeetly satisfaEtory to

, for the great honour you have done me. On look-

requested you to do, you will see how great my ma-
jority is ; and I hope, you will continue your exer-
tions to make it still greater:.

COUnt. STROGANOFF, the Russian Minister at our
--Conn, has left Lciadon for St. Putersburgh.
The following is an Extr:n of a letter from a
Gentleman in the isle b( France, to his Friend in
Philadelphia, dated July 5; 1806 :

" A French Frigate has arrived at -Tort South East, with
; very valuableprize'; an English East I 'Ala -Company's Ship,.
bound from China to Europe, fully and richly ladeu. We
have not heard what her cargo consisted of, but it is inuncnw,
as she is a Ship of via, tons bortheii, well armed,, and fluor
the Frigate, carrying .14 is_ pounders, during tour-glasses and
a halt. She w. s':.par.red from her consort (the Ganges) in
a gale of wind: The frigate and a Privateer are out in search
of the other."

The above is supposed to relate to the capture of
the Warrcn Hastings.

The PRINCESS of WALES is said to have received
letter from her venerable father, in which it is men-
'foiled, that a proposition had beenitade to him by
BONAFAIITE, to respe6t the neutrality of his territory;
and to acknowledge his independence as a Prince. on
condition that he would retire from the Prussian ser-
vice ; to which the Duke gave the following short
but magnanimous reply,." I will die asl have liveci-!--
vithhonour !"

ritTRA.CT FROM THE DOMINICA .tOtifNA.II

llossAtri SEPT.3.O.—We again resume our Jo.ur;,
Oh after an kr_tterruptioti occasioned by the COI:,
fusion and log sustained in the,oflice during the
late htirricane; one of the greatest calamities. this
Colony has 'Sustained within the memory.. of the
oldest inhabitants. To give a c:etail of all
.the par-
ticulars of this disastrous event,would be a task im-
possible to fulfil with accuracy until things
,com-
mence to be a little more settled, and that a regular
communication with the Country should be opened,
the .roads being intirely destroyed; we shill, there-
fore, confine ourselveS' chiefly to the giving a gene-
ral idea of matters, as far as the intelligence yet re-
ceived from the different parts of the • Colony will
enable us, - • • •

On Tuesday, the gth instant, about seven o'clock
in the evening, the sky became totally overcast, and
tremendous flashes of lightning, accompanied by
heavy puffs of wind, presaged to the more •experi •
enced part of the inhabitants an approaching storm ;
but few expeCted it would have been so fatal in its
consequences. The wind contiuued'to increase un-
tit ten o'clock, when it began. to be accompanied by.
a most dreadful fall of rain, the etiea of which, ac-
cOmparied by • a pitch-like darkness, each moment
illuminated by a Sheet of livid fire, and the roaring
of the wind, which' everyinstant became louder, was
awful enough to impress a dread bpon the most
intrepid. Soon after, to complete our• tnisfortuue,
the river Roseau, increased by the heavy rains,
overflowed its • banks, inundated the town, in. •
every dire&ion, and then thy destrt6tion became
generaL; [every house which,obstruCted its passage'
was thrown down, or carried aavay by the aarrearn,
and a great proportion of; the unfortunate inhabi-
tants perished. About ten o'clock, every veSsel, in
the harbour was driven from its inoc.rings, except a
small Swedish schooner, which was cast ashore. un-
der the fort irlittle after midnight ; and those which
were driven out, generally met with the same fate ; •
amounting in the whole to .16 sail, of different de-
scriptions.
*Nu pen can paint the horrors of, that dreadful •
night •; the tremendous •.noise occasioned by the
wind and titin....;the roaring of .the waters, together
with the, sliock of an earthquake, which was sensibly
felt about midnight-the. shrieks of the poor suf-.
ferers crying out for assistance—the terror of thoSe
who in' their houses heard, and. dare not open the
door or window to afford them succour, and' who •
expe&ed every moment to share the same fate,.
formed a scene which can hardly be coneeived,..and,.
is still more dicficUlt to describe. Fortunately for
the inhabitants of the town, and indeed the'whole
Colony, the force of the wino and rain abated id?oni
three o'clock * tike morning, and near the sarne
time the water ^ began to tail ; if it had 'continued..
another hour in its altitude, there is tiodOubr but ,
the town would have been entirely destroyed. •
The -speaacle which presented itself on'the re
turn
.of day-light, was horrid beyond every power
of description ; heaps ,of alma and sand, in
,i6trie
places five or six feet deep, through all parts of the
town ; the forM of a street. hardly to be discerned.
Five . large streams, or rather torrents, , running,
through the town ; ' ruins of lii)iises blown 'down.,l
and others thrown down by the flOod, obstruaing
every passage ; the bodies of several of the' unfor-
tunate vi&ims of this event drawn out from the
ruins, and lying in the streets ;
while nnnibers,'al-
most distracted, were searching fel- sonic near
lation or friend, who had perished in the storm ;
the lamentations of those who had lost sonic of their
nearest and dearest connexions, joined to the de-
spair of those who had lost their little all, formed al;
together-a scene ealCulated to draw tears from the
eyes of the most unfeeling. .
From the most authentic accounts which have
keen gathered during the confusion occasione&by
this fatal : occurence, 'there have been ascertained
to have perished in the town of Roseau and its vi-
cinity eight white persons of different. sexes and ages,.
57 free persons of colour, and 63. slaves, , form-,
ing a total. of 131 (since foue,,l to amount to 240);
besides numbers of others yet missing, anaseveral
Wounded. On .Morne Bruce, where. that part of the
garrison stationed in Roseau is quartered, the whole
of the barracks were blOwn down excepting. one
three. Inez' and one woman killed, and one. man
wounded. . .

The planters have,eqyally suffered with the inha-:
bitants of the town ; every plantatien on the wind-
ward coast of the Island,,froM the River Tabarie
to Marne Paix Bouche, are almost intirely de-
stroyed—only three mills standing in the whole
extent, and those considerably damaged ; no other
building left on either, sugar or ecifee estate, and
the riumerous,inhabitants'of that' 'quarter llar
for shelter four houses, -situated at some distance
from the sea, to which most of the-white inhabitants
have retired. On the different' estates On that coast,
as far as accounts have reached town; there have pe-
rished about 30 uegraes, and upwards of 180 danger-
ously wounded. •
•-
.
Round the coast, from the river Tabarie, by way
of La Soye, the estate which bears the name of that
river, is, perhaps, the only one that has not received
any considerable damage in this general disaster.---
,All the plantations on the coast, to the leeward of
the island, have experienced the effeds of the. hur-
ricane ; every bouse. from the river Mahante down
to Prince Rupert's; either laid flat, or greatly da-
maged-; the town of Portsmouth entirely destroyed;
the greatest 'part of the barracks on Morne.Cabrit
carried away and, in general, the whole island
offers a scene of devastation and ruin. We learn
that Martinique' has but slightly suffered. Grand
Terre, in Guadaloupe, the:same. Maria Galante,
and the Saints, have received considerable damage ;
but that the other islands have entirely escaped.--
Though the whole weight of this misfortune seems
to have fallen on our unfortunate island, we cannot
help thinking it a subje& of rejoicing, that the other
Colonies have been fortunate enough to escape this
calamity ; as thus we have a resource open against
the horrors of a famine, which, without the receipt
of speedy supplies, would have been inevitable,
the resources 'of the island being.entirely destroy-
ed in provisions of its own produaion, and the
greatest part of those in town destrdyed or da-
maga .

which ivas too fatally, accomplished the fol-
lowing Manner, after one of his intended vie,.

night Made him' believe his woman, and the
children were fast asleep; he silently 'crept line
the chamber, and began -the work of death, by
an attempt to strangle the unsuspeCiing 'mother,
giving her; at the/ same instant,.a violent blow, on
the temple with a boot-jack, to render her incapa,,
-ble of resistance. Fortunately the blew had not
the desired effeet, but alarmed her so' Much, .that
she struggled
,from the grasp he hrtd on her
throat, and leaped through the window , to call
its the neighbours, Another woman (her ..rela-
lion) in 'the house,' awakened by the noise,
and equally alarmed at whit she saw, ,made her
escape the same way, when Mr. C. deliberately
•shutting', himself closely in, began the 'horrid .tra-

The youngest (a. little girl not •three month's old)
having one slight•-mark of the weapon on its lett
pap, no doubt the tightness. of the cord had soon
finished his purpose with her. His' son, .and the
two other girl, had seven or eight stabs, many of
which were mortal, and; it is'alsb supposed, froM

LOSS OF THE GLASGOW' PACKET.

The Glasgow Packer, Moses Jon N STOIZ , Master,
eailed from Leith op Sunday the I Uth nee-. at five
o'clock in the evening, with 2i passengers on hoard;
At two o'clock next morning she struck upon a sunk
rock, outside the Fearn islands, .and :the water im-
mediately. ushedin seeing *there was no possibility
Of saving the Ship, the Captain ordered 'the Boat to
be got out, and two Merl to gdt her to the lee-bow,
to save the women, if possible, bet the wind and sea
being:so strong, they lost, their hold, and inimedi-
ately the Boat was Out of sight ; the stern-boat had
been stoves in pieces. The Ship being now full of
made the sea ade a • fair passage over her; guns
were fired so long as the Vessel Was above water ;
there being,no appearance of any assistance, al on
beard endeavoured tO catch the rigging, or any place
where they could hold . theniselves thst—they conti-
nued in this state till day-light, when five of the
passengers were missing. At this tittle three Holy
Island Boats appeared, but could not come nearer
the Vessel than twenty. yards, the sea running so
high; they were called to, to heave their fishine--
lines• on board, which thy Captain flistened round
the passengers, who threw themselves into the sea,
and were drawn by the fishermen into their Boats.
Captaiit jons:si.oN was the last that got off the
wreck,- except a man, his. -wife, and a child, who
could not .at ; they, however, a little after,
were got out: Other three pass'engers, arid one of
the Ship's-servatits,• were, lost after day-light, and
before any "person left the Ship ; the rest got safe
on, cane :of she islands. The Vessel remained all
day on the rock, and went to pieces daring the
night Stnall part of the cargo, is saved.
Another Acount of the loss of this Vessel con-
tains the following'particulars :—One man, a soldier,
having his wife and two children on board, struggled
about' an hour and a half with the children in ins
'arms, often under water, • and rendering what as-
sistance he could to save his wife ; but all seemed
in vain, for he was at last ,overcome--his wife and.
children 'were daehed from him, and with _much dif-
fiCultyhe saved himself. The children were drown-
ed in his sight ; but his wife was some time after
'found bn the wreck, with some life remaining, and
it.is hoped that she will recover;, as likewise another
weman, :who was found among the wreck by a-!aoat
frord a Cutter : she was conveyed to North Sun-
derland, and, proved to be the wife of a Gentleman,
who, among others, had beeti brought, to Bain-
burgh Castle, in • great distress for her loss, as he
was almost assured that she was nu more. Their
joy and surprise at meeting_ may be better felt than
:deseribed. Another poor woman -CiiMe ashore with
•the first boat, who has lost a child seven weeks old,
nail.. her husbeud, .Who, before his exit, had. ire-
, quently dragged her-from the water with her child,
but et last, feiles prey to the dreadful element !—and
timugh.tliecliUd was only seven weeks old, site had
to struggle for the safety of it and herself' for near
five hours, up' to the breast in w-ater, ofteteitolding
'it aboVe her to avoid the dreadful breakers, which
;seemeql toll:I-eaten' their destreaione till at last she
wets overpowered ; her hushaed and child, at the
same instant, were washed over the side, and seen
no more I 'She is at the Castle in great distress.
Another person Bad 'the 'good fortune to save his
wife and child ; he secured Ins child (you his breast,
and with hiS back downwards was dragged through
the water fur some' considerable distance to the
rocks ;' as was tire' case with'.all those that were
saved : 'this, toeether with their former, sulThrings,
• almoSt suffocated theta. Capt. leesere and Capt.
CAMPBELL, ,of the 9 I st..regitnent, two of the pas..
'sengers, were among the saved. When the tide
flowed in the forenoon, the Vessel fell off over the
:rock, and sunk .in deep water, the top, of her mast
:only being seen at low water. She sailed from
Lett-11;0o the Sunday,afternotineand had a valuable
cargo on board. Had not the Vessel providential-
ly remained on the rock, not one would have been
saved:`.
