T. SUBSCRIBERS.

Tits very unpleasant task to be obi.
ged so frequently to call on those in ar
rears for this paper, to make payment.
Some have listened to my last request,
and have paid of their aceounts--to such
tender my grateful acknowledgements.
There are many, however, who have
not, but hope it is from no other mo-
tive than the want of an opportunity of
forwarding their money to Martinsburg
this difficulty may be obviated BY lodg.
ing what may be due with any Of the
gentlemen to whose care the Intelligent
Ger is entrusted. -.---,
would again beg leave to inform
such a. are indebted to me, that have
considerable sum to pay by the list of
April next, which cannot do without
their assistance I would also again call
to their recollection the heavy expenses
attending the issuing Of atnewspaPer, IN
doing which, every article used, must
be paid for in cash. When they are thus
reminded, and reflect that every sub
scriber who does not pay with punctua-
lity, throws an embarrassment upon the
establishment, they win, l fatter my
self, Immediately forward me the sum
due. That no one may plead as an apo
logy for his neglect, that he does not
know the amount Of his bill. it may be
proper to mention, tina. he who has never
made u payment, can ascertain how
long he has received the paper; that he
who has, can by recurring TO his last re-
eeipt, disco, er the date and that by
examining the terms Of subscription
published in the paper, will have no diff
Seulty in calculating the amount due.
It is not believed, nor do / mean to
insinuate, that those who neglect their
payments, intend to wrong the Office,
but it is certain that the neglect, whether
owing 70 inattention or forEetfuines<,
subjects me to difficulties, that / should
otherwise be clear Of.
There is very considerable amount
due me from advertising customers.-
These above all others, should be pune.
tual as there are few printers but what
IRE paid befors publications of this kind
are inserted, and I think can venture
to assert, that no printer in the United

The Editor ofthe Philadelphia Register
IS indebted to the goodness Of a friend,
for the follo1uing interesting extract Of
a letter ofthe list Dec. from Spain.
IAN British properly in Spain has
been seized, and all vessels Of that NATL
on in our ports-so that war is decided.
. " For some time past, dissension has
existed in the Royal family of the King.
dom, owing entirely to the Prince Of
Peace; a short time before the rupture
with the British, story was propagated'
that the King was to retire to a Francis
can convent; the Prince Of Asturias to
De declared insane, and the Queen and
Prince of Peace appointed Regents,
which oecasioned great sensation at
Madrid, and on the people generally.
It is circulated this day, that the Prince
of Peace has been arrested, which, If
true, will give total change to affairs.
Considering the detestation in which this
man is held by all ranks Of people, it is
astonishing that he should be permitted
so long to sway the empire.
1t is the wish Of many Spaniards of
high rank, that an accommodation should
take place with Britain-but that APP
pears now impossible"

Messrs. f. Tilghman, Rawle, Bid

mined as witnesses in the trial of Judge

The brave, but eccentric general Lee
had 81 little regard to the rules of po-
likeness and civility, that he alway:
spoke his opinions unresetvedly, without
regarding the offence or pain they might
excite; Being one night at Albany,
drinking with an old Scotch officer, when
he began to mellow with the wine, he
told his companion that he had one fault.
which he begged him to overlook, which
was to abuse the Scotch when he
was IN liqaor.In troth, replied the ossicer,
1 shall readily forgive your fault, ifyou
overlook mine tits, when l hear any
imPertinen.Iy abusing Scotland or
Seotehmen, when / am drunk or sober, I
cannot refrain from laying my cane
soandiy over his shoulders. Now I
will readily pardon yours if you viii
mine. This seasonabls hint made the

Extract of letter from Washington, da
ted February 9, to the editors OF tn
United States Gazette,

ted February 3, to the editors OF the
United States Gazette.
1t was expected Yesterday, when
the court Of Impeachment met, that we
should be enlightened by the argument,
and ravished BY the eloquence Of Ran
dolPh ; who, as chairman Of the mana.
gers, isto open the debate bat, he con-
tented himself with asking a postpone
ment until to-day-observing that the
managers were not prepared then. but
probably would be to-day. He also re-
quested the witnesses for the prosecute
on to BE- called, and it was found that
nearly all, amounting to about twenty,
were present. 1t was evident, there
fore, that the absence Of the Witnesses
was not the ground fpo.'ponemcnt. 1t
is the general opinion among the federal
!. lists, that the managers wish postpone
- ment until the next session, and hope,
by these trifling delays, to prevail on
Chase to make the application. This,
however he will not do, as his witnesses
are all attending, and az it would be i'm
polite not to take advantage Of the great
impression produced by the answer and
plea Of Judge Chase, which, for perspi-
Guilty, method, and ability, is the most
able thing ofthe kind I have ever perus-
ed. Itseems to be generally agreed that
an acquitalis certain should the trial no.v
proceed, L the managers are so well ap-
priced ofthis, that they do not wish to risk
it, if they can throw the fault on Chase.
This day, at IL o'clock, the court will
- meet, aad il the trial proceed, Randolph
will open on the part Of the prosecution.
The power. influence and authority of
this mongrel creature 10 fast declining,
and there are many Of his followers who
are prepared to throw him over the
preeipiee on the FIRST favourable eceasi-
on, and to assume his place. He is ex-
I peetSd to be very violent against Judge
Chase, and will inevitably, by such con-
| duct, in the present situation of affairs,
| injure materially the prosecution.
"Of the - members, 9 are federal,
and there are three or. four Of the re-
rainder, who are suspected BY the fede-
: ralists to be honest. Twelve votes will
save him from the fangs of democracy,
Ind from the malice Of Jefferson. who
Is believed to be the author, prompter,
and handspring Of the prosecution. 1t
delights my heart to find that the gentle.
men Of the profes sion from our city, ex-
| cepting Dallas, will not wait upon Jetfer-
son, although hint has bsen given that
such visit would be very acceptable.
1t is at once proof of their integrity and
their independence, and although it may
add fresh vigour to the malice which is
broodiug in his hollow heart, it must be
honourable to themselves, and bene fetal
to the party ofwhich they form so respee.

TO disappoint his entertainer, spoke more
highly Of them than he thought himself

the house, the Englishrnan was struck
with the beauty of the garden in front of
the house, from whence it divergedto the
river, in a gentle slope, about $50 yards
in length, in adirect line from the house.
The Virginian informed him it had been
laid out BY Scotch gentleman to whom
the house originally belonged. The En-

Americans have no objection to make a

no other national character than what ouE

have had immediately after the succeed.
ing interruptions Of the Saxons, Danes,
Romans, and Normans and, in al
probability, never win, as there rs no
less difference between the northern

Of northern over the southern states,
