■ p , t 0 these dominions goods not prohi vj J. in national or foreign ftiips, from j;', .ports of neutral powers or from those c f S »nin, under the regulations which iu.iged expedient to prevent frauds :o Lcure the returns being made to Ls y ir from feeing the favorable effeds re which were intended by this fove o -o resolution, experience has proved in V S mod inconteftible manner, that the prerife forms prescribed bv it could not be [bferved, and the Spaniards themselves a bifint: the lingular favor conceded to riern, it has been all converted to the ge neral detriment of the state and particular lofsof the objed in America and in Spain, andtotheincreafeof the industry and trade of its enemies, throwing into their hands the nioft powerful means to continue the war and make all Europe weep over its misfortune. With this certain knowledge the king could not for a moment delay the effectu al remedy for so many evils, revoking as he has been pleased to revoke in every ar ticle, the said royal order of the 18th No vember, 1797» as well as whatever licences may have been granted by other orders, generator particular,-or by the official ads of the Viceroys, Governors, Intendants and other Ministers in America; confirm ing in their force and vigor the laws of the Indies and the regulation of the free trade, the fame Chiefs being obliged under ex press responsibility to take whatever mea iiires they fee requisite not only for the punctual observance of them, but like wise for repairing the losses refuking from theexceffes committed under the said roy al order, without,admitting excuses or pre tences of any kind, should it once appear that they tend to weaken or impede the execution of this royal decree. His Majesty hopes that through these means the commerce of Spain and Ameri ca being invigorated will call forth every poflible exertion in improving the great advantages which their reciprocal trade holds out, diminished the risk arising from the war by the means in pradice and such others as necessity points out in such cases; but if they should frill think the aid of go vernment wanting, the consuls in Spain and in America may represent to His Ma jeftv what their duty and love suggests on the fubjed, confident that they will be at tached to, provided their views are direded to the encouragement of our trade and in dustry, and removing the causes which have hitherto impeded them to the general lofsof the fubjed, and advantage of the enemy. HERALD. A U G U S ~T~~A, W EDN E S D A Y, Nov ember 6, 1799. IN the last page of our paper of to djy, we have given three extracts which »e recommend to the perusal of our rea ders.—The one from the address of the Governor of Connedicut to the Legifla- | tl,rf ) we think justly meriting the heading Igiven to it in the Baltimore paper of SUB STANTIAL PATRIOTISM. I A sage chiefly devoted to pieces of ■tttertainment, cannot be better filled than ■*itnfuc*h political productions as are cal ■tuiated to attach us to the government of ■«ur country—to suggest just and proper ■ r£ 3cfticns to the mind at this important ■period —to wean us from all improper pre ■jOQices and attachments to one foreign H O ■P s; vcr c r another, and to impress upon us nece ffity of permanently es- and maintaining a NATION IAL1 AL AMERICAN CHARACTER. ■ THE Prefideut of the United States, ■^ eC , es Justice and mod of the heads of ■ e ?- rtrn -nts are now at Trenton—Mat ■ considerable importance tis said en ■'s-sheir attention. Various contradic- ■ J ‘- ‘ c ?vrts have been circulated, refpec- to the French Republic, l ' le directions for their departure it has I 1 >-id were reversed ; we are however H Ce d to believe, this has been conjec ■ired f rn ._ f J ■ “ n tome recent movements in the and is without foundation—we E 6 1£ Envoys have been inftrudedto ■ tl - ir passage in the frigate Umted ■ “ 0w at New-Port, and will probab ■ early i n this month- I-.- JONES of Nor/h-Caroiina, f' niac hine on a plan new and E a j. Q ° r r Conve yance of water to any part ! nd with which w *ter tis said Htt • ea ‘ e ,Je conveyed from a spring ■ below the furface cf the earth, with the principles of this machine we are not acquainted, tis said not to be expendve, and will probably be found ufcful and important. . A Mr - BONNEMAIN, a Pariffian, has invented a process for expediting vege tation, by means of water placed in a con ductor heated byaftove, and carried in pipes round the bed of earth-an experi ment has been made with considerable success on some asparagus, and other gard en plants—we do not however calculate that this invention will become extenfwely ufeful. A Mr. LIVINGSTON of Clermont, has lately difeovered, that Paper may be manufactured from a species of weed or plant called Conferva Fluvialis , which is found in great quantities in Hudson’s Riv er probably the weed or plant usually called the Pond Lilly. From an expe riment made the difeovery promises to be highly important, and will doubtless ena ble the difeover to furnifli this new species of paper on lower terms than it can other wavs be afforded in Europe or America. THE Election of Judge M ; Kean, to the office of Governor of Pennsylvania, is no longer doubtful—fince the public fuf frage has decided the long contested point, we hopetheacrimony of party in that state will give place, to a union of exertions for the general good. ELIZUR GOODRICH, is eleded a member of Congress for the state of Connecticut, in place of J. Allen, resigned. THE trial of John Fries for Treason, has commenced at Morristown.—The trial of William Duane, editor of the Au rora, is postponed. IN the Supreme Judicial Court of the State of Massachusetts, an important case was decided embracing a fubjeCt which has exited much public speculation. The aCtion was brought by Derby as in dorfee of a promissory note, for five thou sand dollars, against Blake the indorfor— the note was given in the course of some negotiations and purchases of Georgia lands—one of the grounds of defence on the part of the defendant was that the consideration for which the note was in dorfed had wholly failed, this was urged, and the recinding aCt of Georgia relied up on to support it—But it was the clear and decided opinion of the court—That the idea of a legislatures reclaiming property they had once fold was not less preposte rous, than for an individual to repeal his own note of hand—that the declarations of the Georgia legislature who were the re al grantees of the land in question about fraud and circumvention could not be ad mitted in that court as evidence of the ex* iftence of such faCls. Whether or not the grant was valid, the court deemed to be of judicial and not of legislative cognizance : The repealing ad of Georgia was also deemed void, as being repugnant to the tenth fedion of the firft article of the con stitution of the United States which inter files any state from pafiing laws imparing the obligation of contrads—The note was therefore deemed given for a good and va luable consideration which had not failed. The jury were of the fame opinion with r he court, and found a verdid for the plaintiff. Died, on Saturday last, Mr. Hambleton Nixon , of this City. On Sunday last, Mr. William Clarke, Coach-Maker.
