DR., Morse happened to have adjoin-
ing farm of his bad neighbour, who
made it practice of killing every thing
that came on his place. One day seve-
raj OF the doctors hogs broke out of their
sly, and made their way into his neigh
bOur's grounds, who shot them all, and
sent word to the doctor to come and
take them away, who when he came was
salutcd by his neighbour, with g Now,
ID you, keep your hogs to yourself
the next time" The doctor SAID no.
thing to this, but removed his hogs, and
babe his men keep u good look out for
ms neighbours cattle, which often broke
into his Enclosures. Not long after,
wosss was brought him that there were
ten or twelve OF his neighbours hogs in
his field, roofing up his produce and
playing havoc with his ground. He in
stantly ordered his men to catch them
all, who performed their orders with a
lacnty, expecting to see them hand
somely slaughtered as soon as they were
caught. But what was their surprise,
to hear the doctor order them to put the
oxen before sled, and tic them by their
feet and lay them on it; which being
done, the doctor drove the sled himself
to his neighbours door, and stepping in,
told him that all his hogs had broken
into his fields, and done him cOnsidera-
bic damage. His neighbour hastily ex-
claimed, " Good God, doctor, you have
not killed them, have youP' "No, no."
says the doctor, - l have catched them
and brought them home for you-come
let US go and see where they broke out
OF their sly, and mend it." This being
done, the doctor helped to carry the
hogs and put them in-when his neigh
bour intreated him to tell how much la
mage thy had done, and insisted on
| paying for it. But the doctor refused,
saying, Such little accidents would
now and then happen among neighbours,
and that he wished no pay, seeing they
were all neighbours together, and as
such ought TO DC friendly to one ano-
thcr"-lnd having bid good by, retired
with the pleasing thought Of having re-
turned good for evil, which had no bad
effect on his neighbour, who from that
hour became one Of his best friends.

Respecting Col. Burr-authentic IN
formation states, that he was rctaken on
the morning Of the 18th February, and
conveyed to Richmond, in Virginia, FOX
examination. He was examined before
Chief Justice Marshall. The examina-
ton was concluded on the first instant,
when Burr was required to find bail, ia
the sum Of ten thousand dollars, for his
appearance at the May court for trial.
Two charges against him were spe.
clned by the district attorney: treason
against the United States and INSIDE
mcanOr, in preparing an enterprise a
gainst the Spanish territory. But let
ter from Richmond, mentions only the
misdcmcanor as the object of the trial.
A gentleman residing in the vicinity
of this place, who has lately returned
from Stanton, informs that it was said
Burr had, after giving security, again
disappeared.

preside at the ensuing circuit court to
be held at Richmond, before which it

was arraigned before the senate of the

On Thursday last, 5th FEB, at one O'Clock,
precisely, the different corps Of the state were.
admitted to the audience OF her majesty, the
empress and queen
Mr.. Defermont, in the name of the council
Of state, addressed her majesty to the follow
ing effect:
6 MADAM,
" The tender solioitude of your majesty,
for the august emperor, whose preservation
is the object of all our wishes, led you to APP
proach the theatre of his immortal exploits (;
Your return to the centre of, the empire is a
sure guarantee to US that, if some enemies are
still to be fought, they ought to afford you no
motives Tor uneasiness: How .consolatory,
would be impossible for us to express the sem
timents of admiration and gratitude, with
which we are inspired by the uiunphs OF the
armies led on by their ilvincible chief. We
entertain no doubt that longer resistance
will only serve to prepare new ones :. that VIC
tory Will make the voise ofreason. be heard in
the councils of our enemies, and that the
\ Great Napoleon will shortly come to join your
majesty, to enjoy his glory, and the happl-
ness of Frenchnlen. Vouchsafe to accept,
Madam, the sentiments expressed to you, by
the council of state, and receive with kind
ness our congratulations, VOWS, and homa-
lges.
The President of the legislative body, at
tended by the Questors to whom were united
the members Of this body now in Paris, ex-
pressed himself in these terms.
3 s. MADAM,
g The half of our wishes are fulfilled. The
presence Of your majesty will make us wait,
with less impotence for another return which
all Frenchmen desire with US. The brayest
of all people are sometimes tempted to COM
plain that they have too much glory, when

which was provided for him, consisting OF
wild rye and venisop, and sent four large
bowls Of tito the men who accompanied
him.. After dinner he went 20 see one Of
their dances. Il was curious perform

gayest manner; each Of them holding a
small skin of some kind in their hands.
They frequently ran up TO, pointed their
skin, and pptfsd win their breath, or blew

whelher man or woman, would instantly
fall, and appear almost lifeless, orin grea.

NArIoN1L RESPECT Nations respect
each other III proportion to their respective
real force and not In proportion to their re-
spective pretentions to it. Moral reasoning
unhappily has but little influence in opposition
to cannon balls. Whenever, therefore, any
misunderstanding arises between states, the
question most frequently is-whst are the re-.
lative Means Of injury and defence, and not
who has the right Or wrong Of the cause -
The strongest party will never want reasons
to Justify and maintain aggression, when once
ration finds an intcrcstin making war. a
nifty, ambition, and love OF power, are al
ways more prevalent In the human mind than
humility, moderation, and forbearance. Ths
apparent and not the real motives of action,
are commealy made known to the public
when nations mediate unjust designs. Why,
therefore, rely OF the weak weapons OF rea-
son and humanity with princes and states: as
they respect in general no other law than that
Of power Why hope that they ever will
reverence any thing else, while every act
proves they do not? If we resolve to remain
free VIC must have our ports and cities well
fortified and defended by regular military
and naval force, properly organized and rea-
DIV to act ON any occasion.
When the French emperor left France the
last fall, to invade Prussia with an army of
near three hundred thousand men, he pre-
tended that he had no other motive than to re-
Iseve the poor, helpless, and oppressed Sax
ons from the Prussians-while these same
Saxons had no idea that they were oppressed
BY the former, as they were acting in perfect
accord as friends.
Saxony has ever since been the burthen Of
his song, and the object of his tender solicit
tude, until he has swallowed her up, and
nearly all the other states attached to the an
cient Germanic empire. Should he wish to
extend lis views TO the western, as Britain
has to the eastern world, what have VIC ts
check his arbitrary strides, England once sub
dued Or suppose him overthrowh, aud Bril-
tain or some other power have gained an un-
due preponderancy Ills it not necessary in
any event to be on our guard to have our.
swords and shields bright and ready, and our
lamps trimmed and burning.
When national honor is wounded, or liber-
ty is lost, it it then alas too late to dePlore cur
