NEW YORK CONVENTION

At a Convention 61 Delegates trorn the several
Counties of the State of New'ATorl:, hereinafter.designated, held at the Capital in the City of Al-
bany, on the 17th and 18th days of Septeinber,
1812

[Here follow the names of the DelegateS.from
34 Cities and Counties]
Resolved, That the doctrine, of late so 'fre-
quently and violently inculcated, that when 'War
is once declared, all inquiry into': its justice-ahl
expediency ought to cease, and all -ipposition to
the men in power immediately to be 'abandoned,
is essentially hostile to the vital principles of our
Republican Institutions ; and if athipted,
change our present • Government into one of the'
first species of
.tyra-my which the ingeiruity of the
foes of freedom has yet contrived-,a Government
republican in its forms, in spirit and practice ar-.
bitrary and despotic—that ,it must be obvious to
the.most ordinary capacity, that were such a-doc-
trine to prevail, an Administration, which, by its
corruption or itubecitty had justly: forfeited the
confidence of the people, would be tempted to
plunge the nation into an unjust or unnecessary
war, for the sole,purpose of perpetuating their

[plum; TXPENCP-HALFPENNY,

power, and thus greatne:is on
the rains of their country.
Resolved, That AN'ithouS insistine on the hljas-
.
tice of the -present .war, 6ole/y into
sideration the time and circUmstences of • its:de-.
clarati(n, thecondition of the country, and sta.L of
the public mind, we are constrained to consider,
and feel it our duty, to pronounce it a most rash,
unwise, rind inexpedient measure, the adoption of
-which ought for eve: to depriv.: its authors of
the 'esteem and tonfi.enee of 'wt. enlightent4 •
people—because, as the injuries we have received
from' trance, are at le:;st equal in. amonnt to those
we have s'ustainet from England, and have been
Attended with eircueistances of still greater insult
and aggravation-7:4i war were necessary:to vindi-
cate the honour of the country, consistency and
impartiality required that both nations. should •
have been included in the declaration.- 'Because
'if it were deemed expedient to exercise our right
of selecting our adversary, prudence and common
sense dictated the choice of an enemy, front whose
hostility we had nothing to dread. A war with
France would eqhally have satisfied -our insulted
honour, and at the same time, instead of annihi-
lating, would have rev:ved and extended our con:l.
merce—and even the evils Of such a contest would
Lave been 'mitigated by the sublime consolation,
that by our etfOrts we were contributing to arrest
the' progress of despotisni.in Europe, and essen-
tially serving the great interests of freedom, and
humanity throughout the world ; because a Re- .
publican Government, depending solely for its
support on the wishes and affections' of the peo-
ple, ought never to.declare a- war, into which the
great body of the nation arc not prepared to enter
with 'zeal and alacrity ;,as where the justice and
necessity of the measure are not so apparent as to
unite all parties in its support, its inevitable ten-
deaey is to augment the dissensions that have be-
fore existed, and by exasperating party violenc
to its utmost height, prepare tate way for civil
war. Because, before a war was declared, it was
perfectly well ascertained, that a vastmajority of
the people in the middle and northern States, by
whom the burthen and expellees of the 'contest
must be borne almost exclusively, were strongly
opposed to the measure—hecsuse we see no rational
prospect of att:: Ming, by force of arms, the objects
for which our rulers say we are contending—and
because the evils and distresses which the war
must of necessity occasion, far overbalance any ad-
antages We-can expect to derive front it. Because
the great power of England on the ocean, and the
amazing resources she derives irons commerce and
navigation, render it evident, that we cannot
compel her to rez:pect our rights and satisfy our
demands, otherwise than by a saceessful maritime
warfare; the means of conducting which we not
only do not pssess, but our rulers have obsti-
nately refused to provide. Because the exhausted
state of the treasury, occasioned by the destrue,
tion of the revenue derived from commerce, should
the war continue, will render necessary a resort
to loans and taxes to a vast amount--measures by
which the people will be greatly burthened and
oppressed, and the influence and patronage of the
executive alarmingly increased. And, finally, be-
cause of a war begun with such means as Our
rulers had prepared, and conducted in the mode
they seem resolved
,to pursue, we see no grounds
to hope the honourable and successful termina-
tion.

Resolved, That while we. condemn the war, in
the must distinct and unqualified terms, we are
deeply sensible of the new, duties and obligations
which the change of our national relations has
imposed upon us, and are fully determined in our
several capacities of magistrates, soldiers, and ci-
tizens, to obey with promptness cinci• alacrity All
constitutional requisitions of the prOper authori-
ties ; seeking no other redress for the evils of
'whizti, we complain, than that-which we confidently
trust will be obtaind from a change of sentiment
in the,people., leading to a champ of men and mea-
-sures.

Resolved, That we view the creation of new
states out of territories not within the ancient
limits 'of the United States as inconsis!ent with
The spirit of the federal compact, and calculated to
deitroy the weight, which the old, great, and po-
'pulous states on;.:;ht to have io the union, and
utterly to disappiut and frustrate the-great pur-
pose for which they entered into the eonfe4eracy.
• Resolved, That we consider the employment of
the militia, fcir the purpose of offensive war, as a
palpable violation of the constitution, as extremely
offensive to the people, as the most expensive and
theleast efficient mode of conducting the war ;
-and as a serious and alarming encroachment on
the rights of the several states, which it behoves
the true friends'of our excellent institutions, by
laWful means, firmly to resist. •

Wilereas•the late revocation of the British Or-
ders in COuricil, has removed the great and osteo-
,sible cause of the present war, and prepared th.p
waysfor an immediate accommodation of all e*ist-
longf differences, inasmuch as, by the eorifeSsion of
-the present Secretary- of State, satisfactory an-d
honourable arrangements might easily be made,
by which the abuses resulting from the impress-
ment of our seamen, might, in futnre, lie ettixtip.
ally prevented.—Therefore,

Resolved, That.we shall be constrained to con-
sider the determination on the part of our Rulers,
to continue the present war, after official notice:
of the revocation of the British Orders M Coun-
• CiLas affording conclusive evidence, that theAvar.
has been undertaken from motives entirely• distinct
from those which have been hitherto avowed, and
for the promotion of objects wholly unconnected
with the interest and honour of the American na-
tion. . .

Resolved, That we contemplate with abhorrence,
even the possibility of an alliance with the present

TIIURSDAY, OCTOBER 29-, 1812.

Empetor of France, every action of whose life
has. demonstrated, that the attainment, by any
means, of universal empire, ,and the consequent ew-
tinetion of every vestige of freedom, are the sole
objects of his incessant, unbounded, and remorse-
less ambition. His arms, with the spirit of free-
men, w'e might openly and fearlessly enconn-
ter ; but,' of his secret arts, his corrupting in-_

thience, we entertain g dread we can neither con-

cicrer`nor conceal. It is therefore with the utmost
distrust and alarm, that we regard his late prpfeB7
.sions of attachment and love to the•Areric;an peck-

plc, fully recollecting, that, his invariable course
has.heen, by perfidious offers of protection, by
deceitfUl professions of friendship, to lull his in-
tended victims into the, fatal sleep. of confidence
and security, during which, the chains of des-
PPtisin are silently 'wound round and rivetted On

Resolved, That :we are firmly attached to the
tThion of the. States, most conscientiously believ-
ing, that on its preservation, the future peace, se-
curity, and independence, as well as power and
.grandeur of the American nation, must mainly
depend ; and we are therefore strengthened in our
reprobation of the measures of our present rulers,
from a consideration of their evident tendency. to
produce a dissolution of that union which we so
warmly cherish. •
. Whereas, in the opinion of this Convention, the
dangers which seem to threaten the existence of
the union have chiefly arisen from the prevalence
.of a course of policy, by which the interests of
the commercial states have been wantonly sacri-
ficed to local prejudices and state jealousies : and
.whereas our minds are irresistibly impressed with
.the conviction that a change of system is now
,demanded by the imperious law of self-preserva-
tion : Therefore resolvod, that to.effect.a purpose.
so desirable, but
.so ,necessary, as a change of
our present rulers, the harriers of party, which
separate men, differing not in principle but in
name merely, ought to be throWn down, and every
pbstaele removed which can prevent and impede
the full and cordial co-operation of those who are
actuated by the. same feelings,- and entertain the
same sentiments.

Resolved, That it be recommended to the friends
of peace, liberty, and commerce, who are opposed
to the present war, without distinction of parties,
to assembleiu their respctive counties wherein such
rneaings have not been already held,, and appoint
Committees of .Correspondence and Conference,
yvlio,.if.deeMed necessary hereafter, may meet in
a,Convention, for the, purpose. of, explaining and
comparing their sentiments, and conce-Aing a
common plan of operation, having for its object
.the restoration of peace to our degraded and
of licted country.

An idle "report was yesterday circulated that a
French Bulletin had reached town, containing an
account of another battle having been fought
near MOscOw, 'which the RuSsians were
defeated. NO such Bulletin has• been received,:
but it is highly probable that another battle
has been fought ; indeed, unless'. BUONAPARTE
is disposQd to see his communication with Poland
completely cut off, be must risque another action,
Private 'letters from' Paris mention a. cireum7
„ .
stance to whiCh we can hardly give credit,'
viz,. that two. thousand five hundred -workmen
have been ordered to proceed from Paris,. to boild
barracks for the 'reach troops in Moscow,. as
BUONAPARTE intends -4o pass the winter in
that capital: Such a journey, atthis season of the
year, would not be very practicable, even if the
roads were open ; and, indeed, if . these 2,490
workmen were to arrive safely in Moscow, they
would not, we should think, be able to proceed -
very rapi,ily, in building barracks amidst the seve-
rity of a Ittissiim.winter.

The language of the American Papers, at least
of those which are supposed to speak the senti-
4:lents of the American Government, are decidee.ly
hostile. Indeed the. French- Party are now hegin-
nnig to throw off the mask,. \lnd to avow those
principles which we have for years attributed t 0...
them, hut ,which the Patriots in this country
affected to think them incapable of entertaining•
We have uniformly been of opinion, that the
American Executive, acting under the influence
(not to use a stronger term) of France, has long
been determined upon a war with Great tritain,
and ,we arc convinced that . nothing less than a
total surrender of oar maritime rights would have.
prevented hostilities. The Orders in Council,
uotwitbstrnding the 'clamour made about them
inthis country, were not the cause of the war;
h-ey only afforded the pretext. The French party.
in America seems to be really afraid of the mo-
deration of the British Government,. and therefore
they advance pretensions which they know must,
render the restoration of Peace impossible.. The;
repeal of the Orders in- Council 'will uot satisfy
them ; right of search must he given up, and

our "naval ,superiority at once „rend6ed peifectlY
nugatory ; nay, even then, we are not to have
peace with AMerica until Canada be conquered
In plain ErigliSh, America is to continue at war
with Great Britain just as long,as it may suit the
convenience of 131.0Z?APARTE. It remains to be
seen 'CVliether the people of America, ivill Sub-
mit to be made the instruments Of the Cor-
sican Usurper ; whether they will 'sacrifice the
commerce and• the best interests of their country,
to gratify his restless and insatiable ambition.
The miseries of the way ale already felt'in every
part of:America. The merchant, the farmer, the
ship-oWnef; and mariner, are all involved in equal
distress„,.and they have the mortification of know-
ing that.-they are doomed to submit to these dis-
tresses, • not because the interest or the honour
of their country may require the sacrifice, buf be-
cause it is the will aid pleasure of a foreign Tyrant,

. Military dispatches were yesterday delivered at
the Horse Guards from Lieutenant General Sir.
JOHN SHERB-ROOK, commanding the forces in
Nova Scotia.

We have'seen a letter of the ith instant from
Riga, which states, that out of 64 Prussian pri-
soners, who had been taken on yariOns occasions,
,200 had volunteered to serve in the German Le-
gion in British pay. The remainder were desirous
of following them example, but regard for their
friends on the. Continent determined them rather
to continue prisoners. of. war. 'Upwards of 1000
Spaniards had deserted frciin ,the French arulic:s.-7-
TheY were all on their way to Revel, Where they
were to embark foe their own country,
.to join
their brethren. in arms.
• The following-letter from. New Orleans, dated
August 24,' contains a repetition of the report of
the loss of the Southampton frigate, at the mouth
of the Mississippi. We still trust that it will turn
out to be unfounded

" All is. bustle here in the military.way. • Since
the morning aTeport has reached town that the
_British haVe ta4en.possesSion Of o.n block-house'
at Fort-St. Philip% near, the mouth of this river.
The-Southampton frigate was cast away at the Ba-
lize,' and the Brazen sloop of war weathered the
storm on the.lBth instant; and it is believed with
their boats they have taken the abOve-mentioned
positions,which were rendered entirely defenceless
by thehurricane. It would be impossible to give you.
a just description of the dreadful havoc'and me-
lancholy aspect of this ill-fated city. The hurri-
cane far surpassed any thing of the kind ever wit-
nessed-heretofore; for violence, and consequent
destruction of property. 'Every house in the city
is 1110:.2. or less injured,—many were dashed to
atoms ; hundreds of lives were lost in the river,
and out of 60 vessels scarcely 6 are worth repair-
ing."
'The following letter received from Lord tries
squadron, contains the. most recent intelligence,
from Santander • -

" His Majesty's ship Conqaestader.left Santander
the 17th inst. Sir H.. Forum.' had received letk.
ters from the head. quarters of the British army
up to the 15th ; at that time Burgos had not fallen.
Two 25-pounders, forty barrels of powder, and a
proportion of shot; were to leaVe Santander, on the
same day of the Compiestador sailing, for Burgos.
The weather, was very unfavourable to the be-
siegers, but the troops continued healthy, and in
.high spirits. The Congitestador left the following
ships of war at Santander :—Venerable, 74, Dia-
dem, .64; Iris, 36 ; Lyra, 1S; and the Fox and
Lwow. troop ships. The marines were well quar-
tered in the town."

The foll Owing extract of a letter from a medi-

states that the Court Martial on Lieut. GAMAGIe, of;

The tide rose at teith to a greater height on'
Wednesday morning than it
.has for some years,
past, by which several holises at the foot of the
Sheriff-Brae were inundated,' and received SOMe
damage; the Ballast Quay was alsdbverflowed, and
on the.receding, of the water, a part of the street
sunk about a foot. At high water, there were,
seventeen feet and a half on the bar, and twenty
feet in the harbour, being a rise of about four
_feet higher than the ordinary spring tides.
The tide at Ey-emouth, on Wednesday last, rose
to a,most extraordinary height, higher, indeed,
than -has happened in the memory of the oldest
inhabitant of the Thee. The banks for protecting
the houses near the shore were completely destroy-
ed, and the water rushing in, did considerable da-
