a burn received while preparing a composition
for shoe blacking, some of the ingredients Of
which were of highly inflamable nature.
Not being aware of The danger Of exposing
the liquid while at high temperature TO con-
tact with the air, he was in the act of with
drawing the cork from the jar while the con-
tents were at boiling heat when the liquid,
suddenly taking fire and bursting with great
violence from the Jar, spread itself over con-
siderable part of ms body, completely envel-
oping it in flames; and, before any aid could
be afforded him, he became SO shockingly
burnt as to occasion his death, after lingering
several days in excruciating suffering.

ed ny JEFFERSON, aud forced upon MADISON;
as it was also sabre upon the esChinese' sys-
TEN, by which i, was SO long countenanced.
The object which was constantly and preem-
inently the favorite OF the old Federalists was
the NAVY. They regarded the thirteen stripes
AS the consecrated "LABARJM." Their proph-
ecy from the 6rst was, g By this sign you shall
conquer" Yet by the wayward fate which
attends human affairs, our naval heroes have
fought their adversaries into popularity while
their friends, the original patrons of the navy,
are put to act upon the defensive, and to main.
tain by argument their triendliness to dar-
ling object. The 'sLil6putian ties" have been
broken, and the fleet has been towed into the
enemy's harbour. Against this constaucy of
affection, this policy of the heart as we'll as the
head OF New-England, eVinced by day and by
nisht, in season and out of season, there is
nothing to oppose but the solitary vote above
mentioned. Yet this has been exaggerated
and tortured into every form of ohioquy. The
withholding of thanks has been deemed equiv-
xalent to denunciation of censure. and re-
iusal to exult in success regarded as the avow-
al OF regret that it was not defeat. In conc,u-
slon.-from the proceedings of the Lesisla.
ture of Massachusetts taken together, no sem
timent Of disaffection TO the navy, or want of
interest IN the reputation Of its officers, can be
inferred, but thereverse. The Senate (the
number Of Federal members being between
twenty and thirty passed resolve (more in
the nature of an abstract position of political
morality than of legislative enactmenD i'm
porting that the briiliance OF the exploit is not
subject for thanks from those who do not ap-
prove of the cause. In other words, that the
end and not the means, is always to be regard.
ed. The House of Representatives 1.-THE num-
Der of Federal members being between two
and three hundred) voted thanks to the navy
on the ground that the officer cannot choose
mis- service, and that honor is always due to
the brave who obeys orders. But in the pros
ecution of the goodly work of dishonoring our
selves, the vote of the Senate, detached from
its preamble, has served as watchword to
rouse and cherish the popular prejudice, while
that of the House is constantly permitted to
slumber in silence. Ii. G. OTIS.
