It discharged in'one hour 1120 Iwlls, each weighing five liundred weight. The distance of the objectrffired at was eleven mien, and so perfect was the engine, that the whole of. these halls were loged in a space of of twenty feet square. According to the census just takenby the order of government, the population of Ncw-York amounts to 4,892,568 souls, that of Philadelphia to 4,984,947, and tire population of Washington" our capi tal, exceeds six millions and a half. F Our celebrated travellers, Dr. Clark and baron Huntbold, have just arrived from their researches into two of the countries of ancient Europe. By means of a new Invention, Dr. Clarke crossed the Atlantic in seven days. He sailed up the ancient river T hames, to a spot which our antiquaries are now agreed, must he the site of the once renowned' city of London, but not a vestige of liu irmi habitation remained. There exist ed die mutilated portion of a granite arch, which Dr. Clarke, conceived might be the last remains of the once celebrated bridge of Waterloo. * The doctor pro needed further up the river, loan elevat ed situation on the left bank, which com manded a view-of a savage but delightful scenery. This onr antiquary conjectured-' might he the ancient ICiclunund Hill, hut he could not procure u single coin or dis cover any one object. of antiquarian re search. Our traveller was extremely de sirous of ascending the river yet higher, in order to reach the ancient Windsor, once the proud abode of England's mo.' narclis, but he was so annoyed by the tribes of savages, that he found impossi ble to proceed. Ih ctor Clarke intends next year to renew his travels in this once glorious aud now almost forgotten island; anil he will lake with hinyi body of 5 and 20 of the United Siates’s treops, which will effectually, repel any force that tlie savage inhabitants can bring'against him. • Our traveller baron Humkold directed his researches to Fiance He discovered the mouth of the ancient river Seville, and attempted to ascend as far as the site of the once famed city of Baris, but he found the river 'entirely choked with weeds; aud after he had proceeded about thirty miles, the stream became a mcie muddy brook, the baron, however, found the inhabitants of the country so' inoffen .• ivc & communicative, that he proceeded by land, protected only by two servants & three American sailors. The people could give the baron no information what-' ever,'Em seemed iiy far more ignorant than 'he savages ot England; making up for this ignoiance, however, by a clieei fnlncss of .disposition at once admirable and ridiculous. These poor Tiaibarians appeared fond to excess of decorating their heads and bodies with feathers and skins dy ed in the most 'varied colours.— The baron observed numberless groups of. these people using the most ridiculous grimaces & twisting the body into a doz en ridiculous altitudes. They then be-’ gan to dance, an exercise which they seemed*so attached to, that it appeared tohe their only recreation. The musical instrument to which these poor creatures were so fimd of jumping and dancing, was about two feet long, and consisted of a hollow body, with a solid handle of a-> bout the same length, aud curved at the extremity. It had four strings, extend ing from the extremity of the handle, beyond the middle of the {instrument so celebrated amongst the Kuropiaus be tween the sixteen and nineteenth centu ries under the name of fiddle or violin;' for the society of antiquarians, in their last report, have given it as their decided opinion that the.ancient liddle, viola, vio lin, violincello, and bass-viol, were mere ly different kinds of the same instrument; and they very ably retiite Dr Camden’s conjecture, that the violinof uucieut Eu rope was an instrument of parchment and hells, played upon by the knuckles —■ Vide reports of the dniiquat'iau Society of New Fork, folio, ro/. 1783, p. 880. f The late voyage of professor Wander-; hageu to the moon took up a space of nearly 7 months, hut the present espedi lion, it is expected will take up much less time. The body of the balloon will be filled with the new gas discovered by our chemist Dr. JLtherly, and which is 800 times lighter than the lightest gas known to the ancient Europeans. The balloon will not be circular, but a poly-, gon of an infinity of angles, aud at each i angle a pair of wings, all of which are wo k- d with the greatest precis hm and fa ' edity, by the most simple bat beautiful machinery. These (wings at once create \ a draft, and determine the direction of the air at the will of the -Eronaut, whose balloon is easily steered bv a newly con- ■ s'ructcd air-rudder.

The present maturity Os the medical science is beautifully displayed by ti.e last report of our college physicians, By the assistance of the optical glasses wj.ich en able us to perceive minutely ail the n.ost • secret functions cf the animal economy,*, and perfect state of the various sciences relating to medicines, the modern pbysi cian ts not only able to recover the liuoran body from the various attacks of disease, but he is able to anticipate Its causes, ami -prevent-its approach to a degree ol moral certainty. But more even than this can , be effected by the magic of modern sci ence. Tire physician can prolong life to treble (he time which was formerly con sidered its natural,period of duration, and can at once render the human body secure-. ' from disease and free ,from deformity.— Those medicines which, with infallible se curity, eii her totally prevent, or if not up plied iu lime for prevention, will rapidly cure the gout, stone, phthisis, pulinomdis, and other disorders, are now known to all. But dues nature make us fecb|e and di minutive, the physician calculates means by which he can effect the accrcation of particles to the various parts of our bo dies, and lb us render his patient perfect in symmetry. Ifour teeth are not the mu i del of peifection, they can be' extracted 1 Without pain, and by takiiig itibse' ele ments cf which by analj sis'teeth; are found tube composed, they may be fumed to the standard of ideal beauty. Is cur vision imperfect, the medicines which are found to affect the size and--colour of eyes, are applied, and in a week those organs' are both beautiful and of perfect operation.— Thus we are brought to a state of longe vity, in which ourTorm and features have ■ no model but that formed by our own ideas of perfection and beauty. Once every thing was formed out of its natural channel, and every country may be >aid to have been in a sort of peaceful siege. Now things are left to their own level. The comii.co[principtcs of demand and supply aic now acknowledged io re gulate the markets much better than legis tnrial calculations and interference. Un man necessities and the common princi ples of our nature are found to constitute the best barometer of commercial policy, and individuals are permitted to trade v\ ith their own knowledge Ik calculations. Thus we have no circuitous channel of commu nication; no licensing, bonding; no un loading to load again ; no entering one port as a passport into another; no waste of labor; man freely exchanges with man, and the bounties of Providence arc dif fused over the -whole earth. l.ast year, no less than 734-vessels sail edfrom Alaska, and the western coast of , America through the channels separating America from North Georgia and Green land. ft is curious to reflect that the very existence -of such a passage was a pro blem of difficult solution to the Europe ans from the 16th to the 19th centuries— This was then called the north west pas sage, .and was fust discovered by a naviga tor ol groat celebrity amongst the ancient English; but whether his name was-Parry, or Croaker, it is now impossible to ascer tain, from the imperfect stale of our re ccrds ut that period. A chemist, deeply read in the sciences of the middle ages, the 18th and 19th cen turies of the Christian xra, assures us that the Englishmen of science about the year ISOO plumed themselves much upon then discovering the means isf making brilliant, lights by re-flectuis,and the different gases of oil and coal burnt in various dt-scripti ons of lampc. Now these pigmies woo'd : have hid (heir d'qmnisiied heads, coiild they have foreseen our present perfection In lighting the atmosphere, by .exciting at i traction and motion among the ccn ■ siluent particles of light and heat. The aerviineter of New York, at a (rilling ex pense, produces a light in the atmospiure ecpial to the brightest moon shine. So that darkness is unknown to the moderns, and we experience only the gia-.lalions between the light of the moon and that of the sun. FROW THE BALTIMORE CUBOVICLE, -TALMA AND KEAN. It was always difficult to convey, by any ; general description, an adequate notion of an actor’s excellence : however, there are some circumstances which it is usual to mention, in appreciating the talents of the : artist, or the power 6f the performance I have seen Cooke, Talma, Kean, Young, Kemble, Miss O’ Nt-iH, Madam Dutches-i nois, &c. I may safely hazard the asser tion, that the French Roscius, possesses ; more of the advantages which constitute perfect acting, thananyoneinthissplcm ii enumeration. In the power, beauty al d richness of his voice, Talma is inimitable r • no one who has heard it can'ever forget its , pa-he tic tone and expression. The aflec - don, the tenderness, thccompassion which - it so exquisitely expresses, are so perfect, : -.hat the mind of the heaver is utterly s(tb - deed by its resistless influence. Often, in - the intervals, between the acts, I haveuma giued that his voice was still making its 1 - ■ .< -.- t* way to my fleart, and I xv'as in the Same - state with our-first parent, in whose ear the angel < “So charming left bis voice, that he a while ,« Thought him still speaking ; still stood fix’d to liear.” In expressing the influence of present suffering, or the despair of settled grief, Talma reminds you -of the heart rending ' misery he has endured, by the spectacle cl an exhausted frame and subdued spirit. — •flow completely he sustains the character of profound wretchedness! the very act cf speaking seems an exertion 100 great lor u mind which has been bowed down by a complication of suffering. Alas ! are not the pomp of declamation and the aids by which passion is wont to express its mise ries and distraction, all disregarded in the intensity of mental agory. The genius of this great tragedian ap • ■ pears to have united the efforts of antienl Greece, in the sublime and matchless sculpture. 'I have remarked that he has* chosen, as the proper field for the display of his powers, that moment the mind ap i pears crushed under her presure of high. , ly excited interest, when his misery and • desolation, which no human fortitude can sustain, and which no ray ol hope can ever cheer. In other admired actors, the ex pression of intense fccling-seenis confined to a few words, to broken sentences and sudden flashes of thought which do not lay open before you the whole soul dftlie sufferer, although they aflbi-J glimpses of its avftil recesses. - The impression on seeing Kean for the first time, is much in his favour; his strength of manner—-the decision of his countenance —even (he rudeness ot his gesture, mid hardiness of his voice, imply a-tnimd. The first evening I saw him al Dm-, > -ry Lane, was in the character of Sir Odes Overreach, in that incongruous medley ot melodramatic horrors ami low farce, the “ New Way to pay Old Debts.” The part of Sir Giles evinces no beauties ; it is fix ed solidity of marble and of marble that, gives no new vcining or sudden rich ness of colour to the actor’s elaboiate polishing. In the riot of the wilder and more savage feelings, he joins with the extravagant delight of a baibarian, danc ing round the fire-where his prisoners are i consuming.—Kean’s mimic agonies give us the idea of that craving appetite which,, -perhaps, lire whole earth is not made to satisfy! lie giyes-it without its pain, —and, looking on this man’s struggles. , we have at once the stirring aspect of the storm, with the pleasing consciousness that we have no share in its dangers—vre enjoy the “ Stiaxe'mini ■ntiitfuo,'’ from a. point of safety. . The actor’s sudden change from tremulous rage to wild re-' juicing, and his fainting in the arms of his attendants, w hen detection -and disap pointment had frenzied him, close with! an effective display of his physical powers. in Macbeth, he is admirable, during that tempest ot more than midnight hor ror, during which the 'turbulent strife of human-vice and passion, howl continually on our cars. I had seen Talma in Racine’s finely drawn character of Orestes: I after wards witnessed Kean’s performance in, the same part (in the‘Distressed Mother.), During the first acts ha was rather tame : he appeared to reserve all his powers for the explosion of madness, when the hor rors of his fate assailed him,-and when he seems to abandon himself in dark despair to the wretchedness which closes forever around him.— Who that has ever-witnessed his perfor mance in that soul rending scene, in which Orestes laments the bitterness and misery of his dreadful doom, will not sees his spir its chilled by something like the gloom of misantropy ?■ No pen can describe the hor rid sliriek by which he announces the destruction of reason and the agonies of madness nor (lie wild horrifying maimer in which he represents Orestes tortured by ibe appalling visions which “ sear his eye balls”—till human nature, exhausted by such distraction, sinks into a calm even more dreadful than the storm which had proceeded it. It appeared to me, that Kean did not succeed in the performance of Hamlet j he is undoubtedly deficient iu the suavity and gracefulness, as well as in the dignity, 1 which are essential to the effectual repre sentation of that accomplished and amia ble personage. The tones of generous exultation have, in his utterance, too close a resemblance to the growlings of malev olence. The scenes with the Ghost, Ro sencrantz, and Ophelia, were certainly en titled to the highest commendation—-but a want of filial respect to his mother, and the too frequently repeated action cf pressing his hand to his forehead, appeared to me great defects in his manner of per to rating. The lover of fine acting should witness I . the representation of the heart rtndings of , jealousy in Kean’s Othello—his rage on the discovery of his bloody dagger in, the “ Iron Chest,” the “ laughing devil in Ins sneer” in Richard ami his rapid transitions from a patent idiocy to the state of reason, in Brutus. I have never seen him in Kirg Lear, as he was not allowed to personate a loyal maniac while there lived one with in luc precincts of \V iiulsot- Castle. _ F. .1 I) from the -V. York Commercial Advertiser, November 8. TuteAgu lutfcVUgfcncc. The news of the most immed’ate inte rest to our citizens, is that concerning the corn market. There has been much bad weather in some parts of England, and great quantities of grain are doubtless in jured. But there is little probability that the ports will be opened. An average crop has generally been sav ed. In Ireland, the ' apprehensions on account of the crops, f had subsided, and in Scotland, the wheat : is excellent, and well saved. In conse i qneuce of these facts, we presume that our six penny loaves, which so suddenly • dwindled to the size of dumplings, will , be increased to the good old loaf. i Os the Continental news, that from • Spain is the most important. The Cou i rtev says that Kingdom is fast hastening r to a revolution. The (actions grow eve i ry dsy more fierce, and the country con l vulseil with dissentions, consoiiacies and civil war; and the King insulted, defied, i andallimt dethroned.

The Urgency appointed during i his absence, consists of the Duke of York, ] the Aich Rfslrop of Canterbury, and the cabinet minister's. 1 The King has expressed his disapproha- | lion of the conduct of Sir Uobert Baker, I on the day ofj.JTe Queen’s funeral, and be ' has consequently resigned.

It is dated the mid dle of last month, and addressed In ail the Grand Viziers, Mirimans, Mullahs, Way vodes, and other public functionaru a of the Oltoman Government. The pur port of this Manifesto, is, to set forth the benign and paternal protection v hich the Sublime Porte h* ever extended towards all its subjects, and towards life Greeks in particular; to deplore and condemn the rebellious conduct of the latter in certain provinces of the empire; and last ly, which is the most important part of the document, lo forbid that any violence or injury should he offered to the per sons op property of the Greeks, except in cases of positive insubordination. Any ! public officer, or Oliver individual, violat ing this injunction, is threatened with 1 tlie penal displeasure of the Grand Seig nior.
