ALL HANDS AHOI /!


Let GO your fore-sheets, shipmates, and
luf abit, if you please-for, dye see. Pll
Just hoist out an idea or two to send aboard
Of ye-Now mind ye, shipmates, I'd crave
permission, dye see, TO tip ye the wink
that there's to be new choice OF officers
on board the good old ship Massachusetts,
next Monday and think you and all hands
will be for bending new set OF comman-
ders to navigateiher the next cruise. It's
high time, lads, 10 have officers on the
quarter deck who know At least how to reeve
the main-top-ssil hsulyards. Tho mlik-sops
we have had the last cruise are something
ike sky -scrapers, top gallant steering sails
and other light sails, which are fit for ser
vice only in light winds and pleasant wea-
Their but in rough weather must be stow
cd below desk.
These are some Of the cabin window
gentry that were while ago for putting
stoppe- ON our commerce. Ay, the same
that rigg'd up the hermophradite called the
Embargo. You know what l mean, the
lsnthern Jsw'd act OF starvation, that bro't
every American Tar upon his beam ends
Yes, shipmates, these are some OF the same
and they've now undertaken, d'see, to
seaworthy embargo--and BY the main stay
they've got topmsst upon 1t to hoist the
flag of non-mP 1rtstion upon.
Now by the msin-top- gallant ast.hsad,
If can find out what they'd be Att is
no more nor less than to say you must stay
ashore, you've no business Al sea. Ay. and
where shall we be, my hearties, if we all
stay ashore why. it's as clear as pike
staff, that we shalt be in Davy Jones' lock
err, at once.--Now thought upon my soul
that I'd spun street yarn enough for whole
llfe's cruise, while / was in the clutches
Of ;hat crazy embargo I; but it seems the
government officers want few knots more
it'll be Of no use 10 them, for the market
is full of the old stock yet. But, my hear
ties, they'd have us believe, dye understand
that If we all stay at home, John Bull will
starve Now think tins is something like
crazy captain throwing his ships provis-
ions overheard, for fear an enemy should
overhaul aud plumber him.
remember when our old cook, Tom
Clgline, got little by the head, one day,
he told the captain he was for division of
property The captain says if there should
be division. Tom, you would spend your
share for grog before Saturday highland
what then would We be at ,-Oh by the
mizen-top, then divide again, says Tom.
Now the present cIever officers will save
us the trouble OF division, If there ant
stopper put on 'em directly-for they get
all the meat and throw us the bones. There
won't be a spare biscuit for US in the locker,

THE following communication is received
from q respectable soafce, with a request
thar it might have place in the Gazette
In complying with the request we would
only observe that we could wish that when
ever democrats become acquainted with
the improper conduct Of their leaders that
instead o. resortIng 70 men of democratic
policy they would attach themselves to the
disciples of tie Washington Schaol. If
this. however desirable object, cannot be
obtained, let those of the democratic party
select those men who possess honor, honesty
AND patriotism, men who regard the puolIck
good more and personal ambition less, those
VAC are now at the head OF affairs and one
half the evils, which at present, result
if0m the mismsnagement Of rulers, WILL
cease.

Il Is evident to those who ha5c had

non intercourse laws, Embargoes and other
measures oppressive to poor citizens, for
the sake Of favor with rulers, who have
power to promote them. MIR. Whitman

FRLLow -CITIzENs I!


One of your number who neither
holds or is candidate for any Town
Office, would remark, that the gentle
men who compose the above list, have
been faithful and impartial servants of
the public, and have managed your
town affairs with correctness and econ-
omy. Is it wise or prudent then, for
the sake of gratifying party spirit, or
private views to turn our your old, faith
full, and experienced officers, and place
in their stead, men, the most of whom
are totally unacquainted with the man
agement of town affairs. Beware Of
the falsehoods industriously circulated
about town, in hand bills. They are
insulting to the understanding of ey-
cry man of common sense, in the least
degree acquainted with the able * mp
right management of our town affairs,
by MIR. Freeman, and those associated
with him.
