which It may immedi; tely embrace. Hitherto
1t has nearly nept upon the journals and the
only notice, which it has hitherto obtained
within our obiervation, is in an advertisement
requefing meeting of the freeholders of Fair
tax county on the 18th init. to take it into their
confederation.
No other advantage would flow at prefent
from the final fettlement ofthis queftion, than
to remove the difagreeabe coatroverfy, which
has interrupted, durng the two lat fsfious, the
harmony OF the fenatc and the houfe of deli
gates, aud to difmfs the members few DAYS
iooner to their families and fire. 6des:
"Whereas diverGty Of fentiment exits between
the Senate and Houfe of Delegates in the
OF the 9Th article of the contribution, which direi.
that moaey bills hall in intanee be altered bv
the Senate, but wholly approved or rejeefed."-And
as all power is derived from the people, who alone
poeis the right to decide any controversies which
may exit between the different departments of the
government
Be it therefore refolved by the Houfe of Deleya,e,
that the people be rsquefted to inirua their repre-
ientatives in the Houie of Delegates and the Senate,
at the next FELTON,, whether Bills for the collection
OF taxes, and bills for the appropriation of Revenue
are "money Bills" within the meaiing of the fad rec
ted article of the contribution.
! EUROPEAN NEws.--Our Lsndon accounts
are now brought down to the 18th of Auruh.
but they contain no certain information as to
the great quettion of peace or zvarS.
RmsorS have however reached u. through
various channels, which favour the profpeet of
peace. or thefe the mott mports(ot are,
| That the pyriiminarie5 of peaSe between
England and France had been (iigned- be.
fore the LIT of Auguh.
And that the Preminaries of peace; between
Spain and England, were figned at Mad
| rid on the fourth of Augut.
| Another rumour of fcarce Inferior COME.
! quence is, the death of Mr.. Fox
! The probability on the whole is, that pel,ce has
been actually eitabfhed between England and
the continent; but the event is by no means
certain. On one point we NAV confidently
exPrefs an opinion, that England has nNlyer
purchaied peace (as ltated in a letter from
Nantz) by abandoning Malta and the Medtcr-
ranean trade to France ; or if fhe has realty
unlimited to fuch treaty, that fhe is i'm fact h,H
one OF the proVinee5 of France.
QuERE.-Hosu is Great Britain TO be ben.ft.
tedby a peace
One aniwer is, that her commerce will
De liberated from its fhack'es. 1t will have
Iree acceis 10 the markets of the continent.
| y. But is The not as much benefited now by
pirasing upon neutral commerce, as lhe would be
by enjoying an unihackled commerce of her
own "A. Bat are not the profits of her prva-
teering lately very much diminifhed by the fpal
number of neutral vciIels, which fhe has con-
tifcatedi; & will they not be almoft deltroycd by
her probable acknowledgment of neutral rights;
particularly by her commercial arrangements

| Since my lat communication, there has ap-
Peared but one cafe of Yellow Fever in the Pc
nltentIary qObieb CAFE, has terminated fsuora-
bly,. Ihofe, that are now fick, labor under the
intermitting and RENTING fever, common at
