A noble theatre was soon presented for his lordihip’s exertions, of his being returned a member of parliament tor Caine, in Wilt, foire, at the general cleftion for ISO 2, and about the 22 1 year of his age. Previously to this event, and immediately after the pa cification treaty of Amiens, lord Henry Pet ty, accompanied by M.

The Economy cf Kings and Republics, It is the enftora of monarchies not only to confer the tnoft rxhorbitant fabrics upon kings and ministers ; in other words, upon thoie who may be presumed to have render ed fame Cervices to the ftatc ; but upon eve rv b r anch and fprlg ot the royal family,— But it is the very principle of as it is stated in the constitution of Virginia ; “ that no man, orfet of men, are entitled to exclusive or leparate emoluments or privi leges from the community, but in confidcr ation of public fctvicesthe fame principle too, requiring that thefc emoluments and privileges thuuld be confined within the most moderate limits* Not to speak of the civil lift of the Englilh king ; not to speak of the prince of Wales, his enormous debts difeharged from the public treasury, or the enormous annuity granted to his support ; not to (peak ot the other branches of the royal family ; a fuffiaient illustration of our principle is to be found in a late appropria tion of the Bdt’fh parliament. It is curt ous to contrail: thefc ftrangc appropriations witli the salary of our republican officers ; In Great Britain, The D ike of Glou- In the U. States, cefter receives more Our chief magiftratc than 6z,000 dollars, receives only 25,000 The Vnncc/s Char . dollars htte of Wales, more than 31,000. Thirty one thousand dollars appropriated for (applying the infant daughter of the prince of Wales with corals, gingerbread and rattles; a Turn, greater by 6oco dollars thin the stipulated salary of the chief magif ttatc of the union. Yet theje is no man of impartiality, who will not admit, that wc are at leuft as well governed, as the people of Great Britain. And by what title do thefc beings claim such an exorbitant portion cf the means of life ? Du they earn it by the fwcat of their brow ? No. Da they deserve it by fame ingenious difeovery ? No. Is it the profit of their capital ? No. Is it the reward of Cervices rendered to their country ? No.— For, what services have they rendered, but to extend the rage of luxury, dissipation and vire ? By what right then do ihey batten upon the labor and wealth of the nation ? What is the Duke of Gloucester to the un. fortunate manufacturer, who is taxed to support his extravagance ? “ What is He cuba to him, or he to Hecuba Suppose only, that congrcfs Ihould appropriate seve ral thousand dollars to tfie support of Mr. Jefferfon’s relatives, what indignation would it not excite in every American bosom! Yet such is almost the precise question, with ref. pest to these “ titularies of the grand dig. nitaries” of Great Britain. And yet it is in this oppressed nation where the idle sprig of royalty is thus magnificently fapported, that the poor laborer is ground down to the hone by taxes ; and every poor man with four children is a pauper. This is the real spirit of monarchies.— Their rulers must be diftinguilhed from other men, not by their talents, not by their vir tues, not even by their royal blood, but by tbs pomp and the dazzle ot tiehes, Deprive them of this magic cf ostentation, and the delusion of monarchies would soon be over. We recollefl an anecdote in point, that is related of some celebrated wit, perhaps Dr. Beattie. Never was there a more ingenious and striking pun—never was any play of wm.ds more diftinguilhed by humor, or by the truth of the application, “lake from MAJESTY its externals, fatd the wit (put ting his fingers upon the firft and bit letters of the word) and what is it but *j*Ji ?

Albany Gazette . AUGUSTA, Oa. 18. Last Saturday, two veflels arrived from England at Savannah—the Lucy from Lon don, and the William from Liverpool; by one of these, accounts, it is said, arc received that cotton had fallen, in consequence of lord Lauderdale’s return from Paris, with, out having accomplished the objeft of his million—a treaty of peace with France : Thus all the flattering profpcfb vanifli, and the war is now to be continued between the two rival powers, with more vigor and energy than ever—now, ebher Rome ot Carthage must fall ! By this arrival we have news to the lat ter end of August—at that time cotton is ! said to have fallen four pence in the pound— in Liverpool the Handing price, 26 pence. The fubferibers to the Augusta Chronicle, who live in the country, and who arc indebted to the paper for one and more years, will please to recollcft that they have at this fcafon, frequent opportunities of fettling their accounts, and it is hoped they will not omit doing so. Savannah, ORober n. Since the Hurricane of 1804, we have experienced no such gale as that of Wcdnef day last. On Tuefday we had a pretty frefh breeze ail the day, from about N. toN. E. It increased towards evening, and continued to blow with considerable violence on Wed nesday morning, which raised the tide to more than its common heighr. There being a considerable frefh in the river, the planters on the different Islands began to be alarmed, and they had but too good reason, for the gale increaftng all that day, brought in such a tide in the evening as to alarm ihe wharf owners and those who had property ftcred under the bluff. Luckily however, it did not rife so high as to do much injury to them, but the Planters have fuffered most severely. The tide meeting the frtfh, it railed the water Over every bark on Hutch, infon’s Kland, and the Rice flacks whkh had been so well and so fafely gat herd, were generally surrounded with from three to four feet water. Farther up the river the frefli was more severely felt, and those who had made large, high and substantial banks, to secure their barn yards, had the misfortune to fee them either broken by the violence of the current and wind, or fil'ed from leaks and rain water. In confluence of which, every crop that was not pie vioafly removed to the high land, or placed on knolls, has been much injured. Except a boat of Mr. White’s having upset and four Negroes pcrifhing, we have heard of no other lives loft. The loss of Rice, however, will be immense; although it has not been generally carried away, it is all soaked in water, and the tide flill keep -ICg U p, will prevent the Planters from sa ving what otherwise might have been prr ferved, kisimpoffiblc for us toeftimate me extent of the loss; one gentleman however, assures us, that he had reaped what would have produced him 800 barrels Rice, whuh is now damaged with water, and .rom which, with every exertion and good wea ther, he does not expert to save the value of 200 barrels. . _ , The Cotton Crops must also havefuftered as well as the other Plantations in the reach of tide water—we have no accounts but from the immediate vicinity of thw place. The general fufferers are—Mr. White, Mr. Campbell, Mr. Telfair. Mr. P. Young, Mr. Oliver, Mr. Jackson, Mr. Ward, Mr. Ncylc, Mr. T.
