ABLIND ORATOR.

On the seth anniversary of our indie
Ipeadence, Mr.. Cyrus North delivered
an Grafton before ssspectable audience.
assembled in the Meeting house at Wal
ton, Delaware County, stat of n. Y.
Mr.. North, It's Stated, has been blind
from his earliest infancy /; but he owes
Ibis acquisitlonof knowledge to strong
and vigorous mind, cultivated by a va
rious and extensive reading, which fond
and intelligent father. and an amiable and
accomplished sister had devoted to his
amusement and information. sgv
The Grafton of our blind desnaMatic
Orator is, indeed, quite above mesSssrriity.
He aliudes to the causes of the separa.
|tlon of this country from England, and
briefly recites the deeds of our revolu-
Itionary heroes. OF the origin, presecu-
ton, and result of the late war, we have
| a S good an account as any adninistra-
| ton man could wish, Mr.. North,
though blind, finds no difficulty in stig-
!matizing the opponents of the present ad-
ADMINISTRATION as enemies to their country.
Thus it appears evident, that eye sight
lis not necessary to make a man a demo.
lcrat.

CURIOUS PROPOSAL.

The Salem Gazette says-ss 1t is pro-
|posed, that should Bonaparte arrive in
this country, he should be seized and held
las the property of the Government and
exhibited for money-the first proceeds
to be applied to the indemnifcation Of the
merchants whose property has been seiz-
led by his orders-the remainder to be
retained by government in part pay ofthe
|expences of the warfSaged on his account
and in obedience to his command.
e TIE Long agony is Deer, said Mr..
Morris. When Bonaparte had returned
Ito Paris, his American worshippers, mis-
taking the spasms of debility, for the re-
|gular exertions of strength, exclaimed
most exultingly, "the long agony is not
over" And, eertes, they did laugh at
Mr.. Morris, most incontinently. The
Indians have saying, never huzza, till
you are oat Of the acoods.

By the late arrivals, we find an account given by
the inventor himself, offs mode OF navigating by
means of air thrown bv the force OF machinery
under the bottom Of the ship. The air IS to be
so confined as to have no means of escaping bat
by rising along he bottom of the ship, which is
to be an inclined plane towards the Stern. The
reaction of the water displaced by the air will
produce an impulse upon the inclined plane.
equal 20 the pressure of the water at the given
depth portion of the force thus impressed
increasing with the angle made by the plane with
the horizon, will be employed in propelhng the
ship. The advantages contemplated in this
mode over the common steam boats, moved by
wheels, are that the machinery not beng crpo-
sed to the violence ofthe waves, it will serve az
well for navigation on the ocean as in rivers and
smooth waters.
1t IS fact deserving to he mentioned, that
Mr. Wetherlee, an ingenious mechanic residing
in Boston, communicated this principle to many
of his friends some weeks before any notice of
it was received from England A few DAYS be-
fore the Milo arrived he had SO matured his
plan, as to explain 60 a gentleman eminent for a
number of useful inventions, the mode in which
he contemplated the application of this power to
the proPelIing Of ships. This mode is SAID to be
much more simple and practicable, than that
gwen by the English inventor.
