On the 7th of September the. Diet assembled at
six o'clock in the morning, at- the Town House.—
citizen IliftrrtmAN, who was-. appointed by the
Executive Council, to gt as Provisional President,
opened the Sitting with, the following DiseOurse.

• " You are assembled," said he, "to deliberate
•,upon the Plan of the Constitution published on the
aoth of May last. You are bound to establish a
• stable order of things in the Helvetic Republic.—
At this important momentevery eye is turned upon
you'; your time is too precious for me to waste it
by a long address. We must aa, and ata with
promptitude. In In the affairs of States, as in thOse
•of individuals, there are 'certain preeious moments
which must be seized in time,. or ,they are lost for
-ever. At the commencement of the Fourteefith
Century, the seeds of Liberty appeared in Switzer_
land--may. the commencement of the Nineteenth
see them grow up-into maturity I
" Time ought to have taught us. many things ;
for the last :three years we have been, as it were,
.upon coals of fire. Our Liberty originally sprung
from the thiserable• cottages of a. nation.of husband_
men. Let us not then. forget our mrigin. Our
COuntry places a greater value upon humble cottages,
than upon sumptuous palaces,- for from the latter
Slivery often derives its source.. Let us, however,
take care not to despise the arts and sciences. They
enoble mankind, raise them to a sense of their own
digoity, and render Man truly free. Advance!
Every Revolution is a ki aot y. The ConquerOr
may aa asia magnanimous. hero, but let him: not
renounce his rights. Do not put the rights of Man
in doubt, but advancein the road of Justice ; that
alone. can- save us from the lass of our. morality,—
and a People without morality. are a nullity. May
religious sentiments,.. may the. idea

`Much
upon those Revenues which we can raise., as npOri
the Expences 'which we can avoid. • :Agriculture
and •Trade are not in a, conditiOn among us to
bear very . heavy imposts. Banish from your
minds the bitter recolleaion of that which is passed.
Who is he that can boast of not having committed'

Consider that the human mind may often- be deceiv-
ed, while the heart remains pure: -This day is the
first of a new Epocha".. Enclear'our to rriake all the
Helvetians but one family—let us all, as brethren'

, -t nfield Races commenced liestetday on Mill
Matsh, at half after_ two o'clock. The fineness of
the day drew: togethei a vast COncourse of spew_
tors, ndt less than sixteen thousand persons beiag,
present. There. were many Gentlemen's carriages,
a few curricles and tandems ; 'but gigs, taxed carts,
and hackney coaches, were innumerable.
Last Thursday morning, as Mr. Runeiman, of
Birchmore-house, near Woburn, Bedfordshire', was
putting a gun into a. bag, he shook it to. get it in,
and his man having been entrusted with it to shoot
a dog, he had imprudently left' it cocked,- and it
went oft when the-murtle was close to his left foot,
which was mangled in-a most shoching.rnatincr., In
this dreadful state he had the fortitude -to ride to
Woburn on horseback, -to a-Surgeon, when he was
obliged to undergo art amputation = of his great toe,
and the adjoining one. .We are happy tostate he is
now in a-fair way of doing well. • .?
The body of a poor woman about 6o; 'was taken
