SOMETHING NEW.

The New York National Advocate says :
Little more than century has elapsed
since the national debt OF England was liml-
ted 10 forty millions steIing. This was at
the death of William the Conqueror. before
whose invasion and plumber OF the Saxons,
public debt was entirely unknown" It's
generally thought to be now somewhat more
than century since the death Of William the
Conoueror; nor has it before been discover
ed that his invasion and plumber of the Sax
ons, were events contemporary with the
commencement: OF the debt of Great Britain.

about fifty two thousand barrels, OF which a
considerable quantity has been exported to

SUICIDE.

An instance OF suicide of no ordinary cha
racter, recently occurred at Haverstraw,
Rockland county. Mr.. Gilbert Feler, a
man OF excellent character, and very gene
rally beloved, 80 years of age, ofample pro-
perry and young family, put an end TO his
existence by cutting his throat with a pocket
knife, and by several stabs in his body. He
fingered four days after giving himself the
wounds, and died very pentent, and with
great regret that he had committed the fatal
act. This, five are rightly informed, was
caused by sense of wrong-a sen.ibility OF
conscience, which led the unhappy man TO
this fatal error. He had been stake holder
al horse race, from which prosecution
had ensued, and he was called upon as a
witness before the grand jury. He had been
advised to withhold some part Of the evil
dence which might go to criminate himself,
and without sufficient reflection did so.-
This preyed upon his mind in secret, and
led to the melancholy act which deprived
society of a worthy citizen. Mistaken man !
THAT can De more honorable than 10 retrace
our steps, and make every possible repara-
ton Of an error.

the National Gazette remarks:
"France has imposed cOuntervailing du
ty on American tonnage, which is TO cease as
soon as the repeal of the duty imposed in the
United States on French vessels, shall be

we apprehend, rather from offended nation
al pride, than from systematic plan OF re-
striction. The commercial contest begun

Ah orrible murder was committed IN Sa.

the body OF Mr.. Peter Perry, a respectable
citizen OF that place, by captain Thomas
Wells, formerly Of Virginia, but for few
years past an inhabitant of Clarke county.
The following are the particulars which
we have attained from respectable gentle
man, who saw the corpse few minutes af-
ter the dreadful act was committed.
Mr.. Wells having marked out a burying
ground for himself, ard made his wil--arm-.
ed himself with gun, three pistols, two
knives, dirk, and large hickory stick,
and went TO the house of Perry, and found
him rocking one of his children in4he era
die, Wells then demanded sone letters he
had previously writtento Mr.. Perry, and be-
ing refused, he presented his gun, which
missed fire; wherein, Perry took the gun
from Wells, and attempted to knock him
down with it but failed-Wells gave Perry
blow with his stick, which threw him, at
which time Wells seized Perry and dragged
him out the door. plunged his dnk into him
nine times, FIVE of which were mortal
Perry expired in few minutes. Our inlor-
mant adds, that wells snapped his gun seve-
raj times at Mrs. Perry.
Wells is in the county Jail. confined in
irons, and guarded by twelve men. The
circumstance which gave rise to this bloody
deed, will be more fully known after the
trial,
Mr.. Perry has left an affectionate wife and
six children TO deplore his loss.

FRIDAY last, the court of common pleas

nearly two weeks A number of pensioners
appeared 10 make the necessary oaths and
inventories to procure continuance OF their
pensions; they were principally decrepid,
poor ana desolate old men. Henry Fran
cisco excited universal interest. His health
is good; his hair is firm on bis head; he walk
ed to the court house, and came above thirty
miles to attend court, and yet he is according
TO his own oath, and sufficient testimony be-
sides TO induce implicit belief, one hundred
and thirty -four years of age.
He was soldier in the English service,
and beat tie drum at the coronation ofqueen
Ann. He served many years under the
great duke Of Marlborough, be was at the
battles Of Blenhelra and Ramillies--batles,
whose very names excite the lneliest emo

Extract Of Letter from gentleman in Ha-

in Philadelphia.
We enclose two ordinances issued by this
government IN retaliation of the act OF Con-
gress, of May 18th. They will shew the
public, that the two governments are far
from coming to liberal understanding on
the subject, which is much to be regretted,
as our respective commercial interests will
be much injured, and neutral flags will reap
the benefit. As yet it is very difficult to de-
eide on an eligible spot at which American
vessels might deposit cotton, from whence
French vessels could bring it to our ports,
and enjoy the advantage of low duties, and
the premium. These circumstances have
given an impulse to the prces of this article.
