Rhode-Island.--Tne Legislature of Rhode-Island met on "Wednesday last, at Newport, to hold three days session. During this brief session, the Providence Journal says, all the officers of the State, civil and military, from the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court down to ensigns of the militia companies, are appointed.
 It has been usual on this occasion for the Governor to treat the citizens, but Governor Fenner this year omitted doing it, and gave hundred dollars (,hat being about the sum which collation. would have cost)to the school committee of New. port, toward the support of the free school in that place. The example was initiated by It. Gov. Collins, who gave fifty dol- lars for the. same object. Gov. fenner says he was induced in part to make this donation by the consideration that on these occasions some of the people indulge to excess in drinking, and he. wished to show his disapprobation of intemperance, and to assist in preventing it.-[solsm Goz.l

The Baltimore Weekly Register, says, The American people will accept of no other arrangement with England, on the score of the Colonial Intercourse, than that ofreciprocity. They will maintain the old ground supported by MT. Jeff ferson, when Secretary of State in 1791, and by every administration since, (except as partially 'oaived by what is called ''Jay's treaty." because of peculiar circumstances) which have not latterally existed and can- not be admitted. Whatever of "free trade" Great-Britain will yield to US we will grant unto her {: but we shall more and more press reciprocity upon her, or retire from her monopolies. The time will come when, if Britain will not receive our -four, we shall exclude her cloths. This pro- ceeding is due to the independence of our country--and the farmers will command it."
