New York Papers arrived this morning to the 10th
of December, from whieh we have selected the follow-
ing from the Eee►►ieg Post:—
Navy Yamus.—There are six yards occupied by the
United States at Portsmouth. The Navy Yard contains
59 acres, and cost 55,000 dollars.
At Charlestown, the Navy Yard contains 34 acres, ex.
elusive of extensive fiats, and cost 39,214 dollars.

•
M New York, the Navy Yard is situated on a long
island, containing 40 acres, and cost 40,000 dollars.
At Philadelphia, the Navy Yard contains 11 acres to low
water mark, and cost 37,000 dollars.
At Washington, the Navy Yard is sitnated on the
eastern branch of the river Paternock, containing 37
acres, and cost 4000 dollars.
At Gosport, the Navy-Yard contains 16 acres, and cost
12,000 dollars.
Besides the above, the United States own the follow-
ing property :—Grovers Island, in the State of Georgia,
estimated to contain from 300 to 350 acres, purchased
December 19, 1799, for 7,0011 dollars. Blackbeard
Island, in the same State, contains about 16,000 acres,
purchased 24th May, 1800, fur 15,000 dollars. Besides
IS lots of ground situated in New Orleans, estimated
to be worth 369,000 dollars, and some other property at
Sackers Harbour. There are near 20 agents employed
by government. Grover, Island and Blackbeard Island
are covered with live oak.

A Ministerial agent in a Morninr Paper. now cries
out, " you see how the Whigs are keeping up the ir-
ritation of the country :" What organ is it that niters
t'usequerulous notes of alarm ? An instrument accus-
tomed to calm the popular agitations; that had been
a stranger to the excitementsof provocation and strife?
Nu. the machine which above all others had been
distinguished for the tunes of discord, that had been
employ-al le propagate the-most grating sensations, that

had been devoted to annoy and infueiate the people.
Whence comes this sudden change From a convic-
tion that the mischief it had been directed to oim at
others has recoiled urn itself and its employers. The
scandalons &Hada, the gross abuse, and the abomi-
et dile calumnies to which this instrument of
malerolevce had been in the daily
use of giving vent, have proved themselves
as unprod:able as base. 'lite people have been roused
by the insults that have accompanied their grievances:
and milli the exception of those who are feed for
their •ervility or silence, with an unanimous and cont-
ra:Audio/ voice require redress. In vain the ven tl
adtutates of Alinisters appeal to the columns of lia-
r; te* for testimonies of support. They no longer serve
their I nrpose. The uai ion is aware of the sources whence
thoy calve, and of the means by which they are ob-
t inetl. From the ledes and congers whence these
trslienomi,q. issue, they torn their eves and hopes to
the :tuldic meetings of the towns and counties ; and
every day find fresh encouragement to demand and ex-
ect 3 reparation fur the injuries they have received,
aid welt a complete reform as will atfurd set urity fur
the future.

A Meeting' of the t fpposition Members, it is said,
til:es Wire this week at Hall:ham flail, the seat of
*lr. Cole.
Prepaeations are making. at Carlton-house FaLice
f. r the reception I' f his Majesty. The whole of the
igiiiicent chandeliers and furniture, which have been
covered up for some time, are ordered to be uncovered,
anti placed iu regular order, as his Majesty is expect-
ed to arifve on Friday or Saturday from the Pat ilium
at Brighton.
It is determined, it appears, from a Ministerial paper
of this *tattling, to celebrate the anniversary of his
Ald;.,ty's yours:lois to the Ti. axe, by u grand public
dinner in the City of London. Unless a man more
obtaxels can be found, it is proposed, that Sir William
Curtis fill the Chair on the occasion.
Toe QCF EN. —Upwards of fifty Add trill be
presented to her Majesty on Monday next, from v:I•
Elms towns, parishes, trades, &c. The Lord Mayor and
the Sheriffs will go in state, attended by a large &po-
tation of the Livery. There will also be a deputation
from Westminster, anilisceeral others from the country,
all anxious to testify their attachment to the Queen, by
waiting upon her Majesty in twrsnn. The Brass-
foamera of the metropolis are preparing a more splen-
procession than that which accon.panied their for-
mer Address to her Majesty, The deputation will con-
sist of about seven littmirell persona, headed by six turn
is raniplete suits of armour; the others clad in half ar-
mour.rach individual hearing some emblematical de-
vire. A deputation of the Coopers a ill also wait on her
Majesty nn Aloralay, with an Address from that body.
Thee will carry in procession a handsomely Kilt cask.
with suitable inscriptions—on one hoop there will be

Attirsty. Deputations will ale present Addresses from

pia* works's., the latter four carrying ealbleuts of their
44feral 'trades.
