day’s mail, state the exigence of Tome alarm, in confcquence ot the appearance of several suspicious cases of disease. WASHINGTON CITY, Sept. i S . By an arrival at New. York, Cork pa. pers as late as the 2zd July are received. They contain no news. Notwithstanding the unprecedented vi. olence of federal calumny and falfehood which has raged throughout the New England Hates, republicanism, not only holds its ground there, but progress with flow though certain effcCt. Every friend to liberty and a virtuous administration will be impressed with ad miration at the intrepid spirit which ani mates Rhode Island. She sent to the lall Congrcfs a republican and a moderate fe. deraiilt, under the expectation that the latter would not fuller himfelf to be the inltrument of party. The soundness of this policy may be questioned; but it cannot be questioned that it was an illu. llrious evidence of a delire to conciliate. This expectation was disappointed. The moderate federal!ft was as efficient in op pofuion to the founded ineafures that have ever been pursued, as a Item vote could make him. Nor in the date, did federal, ism, disappointed in its claim to all, feel any mitigation of its violence in being allowed a part. Here, as elsewhere, it encouraged the grossest detraction, and strove to excite the most turbulent and diforganifing passions.—Under these cir cumstances the republicans did right in m iking a decided Itand—a Itand, which by convincing their enemies of their strength, has itruck dismay through their ranks. General Stanton, a firm republi can and a member of the present Congrcfs is re-elected; and Mr'. K light, also a firm republican is choien in room of Mr. Tilimghaft: both by a majority, it is said ol 1,000 votes. When the fnallnefs of the date is considered, the Majority will be seen to be immense. The public prints furnifh us only with the majorities. It is very definable that they Ihould furnilh us also with the re lative members, that the comparative strength of each fide may be seen. Thus much tor the republican state of Rhode Island. By exchanging a re publican for a tederal representative, it has added what is equivalent to two votes to the large majority in the House of Re preftnta lives. Died, at Norristown, Penn, the Rev. Dr. John Ewing, late Provost of the Univeriity of Fennfylvania. September 17. The John Adams yesterday hauled off from the wharf and dropped down the Eiftern Branch with her full compliment of officers and men.

Extrait of a letter from Cape Francois , Auguji the 16th 1802. <* The fequeltered plantations have not yet been returned to their respective own ers. It is refufed fully to restore them. General measures are expected to be taken when the government shall have fuffiaenr force to command events, viz. When the whole body of troops which is expected will be arrived, viz. thirteen thousand and five hundred men. By the new co lonial code every prosecution for debts contracted betore the 23d of September, 1793, of what nature they may be, is fulpended till the French government will have pronounced on the refpeCtive recla mations, otthe planters, and of the French merchants: till then their in retells are e qually suspended. The disarming of the blacks, ordered through all the colony, has been effected without difficulty in ma ny places ; but in fotne others, principally in mountainous parts, it has been the cause of new infurreCtions, and according , to their customs the blacks have pillag ed, burnt, and murdered in such places. Troops have been sent against them, and have not been always entirely fuccefsful. ** The negroes taken in arms, instead of being hanged as heretofore, receive fe verc whipping and other punilhments, which terrify them more, and cause them more readily to surrender. But in feme places they Hill continue to commit de predations.” ALEXANDRIA, Auguji 25. Richard Basset, late one ot the Judges of the Circuit Courts ot the U. S. has pub lilhed a lengthv protest against the aCts ot Congrcfs pafied at their last session relat ing to the Judiciary. The following para graphs are extracted from'his publication : “ After the most careful deliberation, and mod anxious solicitude to arrive at truth, I am bound to declare, that in my solemn judgment, those aCls of the Bth of March, and 29th ot April, 1802, have not abolithed me offices of the judges of the circuit courts of the United Stares, Seated and perfected under the aCt ot Fc- Bna ry, iBot ; but that they do exlft irt tull torce as at firft, protected against legif. lati.e dcdruClion, by the conltitution of the United States, “ And, in my judicial character, and under the highed obligation of supporting that conflitution, I am constrained to pro nounce these acts, because of their design and intent to abolish the said offices, and to transfer them to other judges, so far null and void.” Judge Buffett's proted or declaration is written in a nervous and handsome style : so very different from his address to the militia of Delaware in 1798, when go vernor ot that (late, as to induce a belief that he who poddies the erudition and strength ot mind difplaycd in the one, could never have betrayed the imbecility ot intellect and puerility of thought evinc ed in the other. When it is recollected that Mr. Bayard is the son-in-law of Judge Bassett, the following quotations from his speech in congress on the judicia. ry bill, delivered lad February, may have some tendency to elucidate the nature of the objeCl deligned to be effected by the present publication. “ If you pass the bill upon your table, the Judges have a conllitutional right to declare it void. 1 hope they will have courage to exercise that right; and if, fir, I am called upon to take my fide, (land ing acquitted in my conscience and before my God, of all motives but the support of the conditution of my country, 1 (hall not tremble at the confequcnces. ” “ The conltitution may have its ene. mies, but I know that it has also its friends. I beg gentlemen to pause before they take this rash Hep. There are many, very many who believe, if you (trike this blow, you inflict a mortal wound off the constitution. There are many now wil ling to fpili their blood to defend that conltitution. Are gentlemen difpbfed to ride the confequcnces ? Sir, I mean no threats—l have no expectation of appal ling the (tout hearts of my adversaries j but if gentlemen are regardless of them selves, let them confider their wives and children, their neighbours and their friends. Will they ri(k civil diffention ; will they hazard the welfare, will they jeopardize the peace of the country, to save a paltry fu n of money, less than thirty thousand dollars.” “The Judges will be supported by their partizans, who in return will ex peCt impunity for the wrongs and violence they The spirit of party will be inflamed to madness; and the moment is not far off, when this fair country is to be desolated by civil war.” “ We are (landing on the brink of that revolutionary torrent, which deluged in blood one of the fairell countries of Eu rope.” AUGUSTA, OEi. 2. The following refutations were passed by the Legijlature of Tennejfee, at their laji jejji'jn. Rcfolved by the general assembly of the (late of TenneiTee, That for the encour agement of the manufactures thereof, the several county courts at their dtferetion, (hall give the sum of fifteen dollars as a premium, to the lady who (hall make the hell, finell and neatefl piece of cotton cloth, containing fifteen yards—for the next fined ten dollars, and for the third quality five dollars; the several county courts aforefaid, may at their next spring sessions, make publication that the above premiums will be allowed at their several fall sessions ; and the said court (hall ap point not less than three, nor more than five difintereded persons to judge of the quality of the cloth so produced by the candidates, and make report accordingly, the laid monies to be paid at the time the decision takes place, out of the funds oi the county, Resolved further, That the members of the present general assembly, do re commend to their successors, whoever they may be, to appear at the next feflion of assembly clothed in the manufacture of tiieir own date.
