We have entered into this dilcuflon,

An unforefeen aaemblage Of fatalities has
compelled the publication of what follows.
# has neither bsen provoked nor wanton.
All Richmond knows, that # has been ex-
torted by fuch a tempea of brutality, by
"a ferries of.fuch editorial challenges and de-
dances, as, perhaps, never before dilgraced
the art Of printing !, and for the honor OF
human nature, we hope that iuch another
proceis of publication will never arlle a
gain. The writer of this article has, IN
The way of buiinefs, 1fonnd-it often necei
fary to addrefs the world. He has often
been forced TO pnblifh what he wilhed TO
lupprels; but, in the preient infance, his
finding il indifpenfab.e to publilh confden-
tial LETTERS has colt him an excels of an
guifh, which he never felt before, aud
which he does not podcis faculties capable
Of defcribing. .
1.-THE editors of the Recorder have ex-
preGed themielves with prolixity, let 1t be
con6dered, that iolieitude Is abts0 Be ger
6s/s. Let any imparsia -,elfon tranlpoie

prefent writer. Let him form the iuppot-
sion thar he had been attacked In the man

the yirtuous and delicate writer of TIE
Notes on Virginia, had no connection with

Mr.. Jstferfon to recommend a reduction

The variety OF imprefions, which have
occurred ia the endeavonr to fnilh this
article, has made il neceGary for US to
FAY, that our previous observations can
not be hnifhed until our next number.

The Ruaian American Company con'i-
nues 10 give more and more extent to this
brarch Of commerce, which, in time will
undoubtedly become Importance TO Ruff
ia. It's now employed in a plan which
is of the greasea cenfsquence, nor only TO
the trade, bur alto to the honor of Rufia.
Il is going to fit out two fhips, which are
to fail from this place with caIgo Of pro-
vifens, anchors, cables, rigging. &c. to
go round the Southern extremity of AIne-
RIGA, acrols the South Sea, to the North

cargo OF furs TO be barsered in China fer
Ctinefe goods, to make by the way an
efabliament at Urup, one of the mott
Southerly Of the Kurilc Hands, for tie
greater convenience of trade to Japan; and
to return to China by the Cape Of Good
Hope.
The hips will be wholly manned with
RllHans, and the Emperor, who approves
Of the plan, has ordered that the bea oif-
GERS and failots of the navy hall be en-
ploved in the expedition.
As this is the hrl voyage round the
world undertaken by RuGians, no pains
are fpared TO allure to the expedition hap-
pv reIalt. The command of the laips is
given TO capt. Kru-nfegn, who has been
long in the 6. Indies, and was the fril
propoier of the plan. For the information
OF the efablihnaeas at Urup, the comPsny

therto all the above neceGaries have Leen
transported a vaf way by land carriage,

That no time may be loft, thefe two
