We re- luiee to exercise nur'juat jurisdiction, till it shall jileaad the parliament, the common wealth uf England, otherwise to order, ti-;- tler whose power a or! protection we are.” Mr. Sullivan, noticing the aff.irsof Maine after the restoration, says, there is a mys tery in the proceeding of this government which it is impossible, from any documents now remaining, to explain, respecting the magistrates appointed in the Sheep-cot ri- verj but lie obre,v<n,,»the goverriin-.nU of Hew England colonies were a check and an impediment, in the early day, to the strides of monarelty. The principle ol mi hereditary authority is easily established, in the moment of conquest, over a conquer ed 1 people; but the New England colonies may emphatically be said to be barn tree. They were -settled originally upon the Idea expressed at this day in all their forms of government, that'ail men a.-e born free, equal, and independent.’ Among the reasons lie assigns for (lie submissi to the orders of the levolution, the most .pnweiful was from apprehensions of bein ceded to France. Almost every otlie reason was annihilated by their political situation. Mr. Sullivamobseives, “win the revolution of 1C88 took place in Eu land, the eastern country was in a wretch Cil state of w at (are, anil before the yeai y lt>92 was entirely populated. And there fore the incorporating it with the province of Massachusetts was no real advantage to that government, otherwise than us the people there wished to avoid having a re- ular government, established in that pa: ot the continent.” The greater appre lien sinn was, that, if left in its negle. led or separate state, it might more easily lal' under foreign power. A glance at tiie ail ministration id sir \V. Philips may satisl us that the defence of this territory wa an object to the administration, and Ilia even the tears of the people could not sup port the expenses in which they were to be involved for the attainment ul this object, ao often mentioned in these writings, and an often recollected in their dovutmn.— g|The administration of Stoughton shows in “what form this subject w,»« most favourably received, and how straugely their domes tic alfaira had put them at variance with the best method of doing their indespensi ble duty. Hut the (hudeuce and wisdom ol Stoughton gave a better order to their mil itary anil other affairs, and, in the event lie chastised his enemy, rendering him ies* daring in his designs, and gave that better order of things from which Maine and Massachusetts have so happily flourished together in the pastcentuiy- In 1040, the nu-nber given in New England was four thuusaud; and in the close of thatcentury. at about SO times that number, in CO years At this time Maine had begun anew, ha ilig lor a centuty received little advantage fiom all the settlements which had bee made in it. and from jll the sums bestowe upon it. - l lie peace of Utrecht, in 1712, settled all French claims winch till tital time had not been abandoned. Mr. Sulli van tells us tlie whole district remaiin i inone county till 1701, the Cumberland became distinct from York county, and i.i- tccwarils Lincoln was established m tin eastern part, and so things continued till the revolution in 1775. Th» population in 1790 did not amount to 100,000. but in IffUO it had 150,000,andat the next censu. was nearly a quarter ofa million,having n<| ded instead ot 50,000,70,000 toils noniner. Before the revolution it had not 20,000, and, in 1750, before the taking of Quebec and the French colonies of North America, it had not 10,000 upon it> extensive toa numerous bays, islands and rivers; for it extends from lat. 45 to 45, and upon 4 de grees of longitude, from 67 to 71- It is as little troubled by the flrst population fuund in it in the present state of Maine, as could have been imagined from the un common share of suffering endnreil in its early history, after it ire ived European settlements.

The l6ihdaycl ibis month was the anni versarv of the battle of Bennington, ajui preparations appear to have been nude to celebrate it with more than usual solemn! ty by those who reside in the vicinity oi toe spot. The ceremonies were to cum mence with a procession to the meeting house; where, after psalmody and pray were to be read “Gen. Stark’s n’octal ac 'count of the auspicious and ever tneinora ‘ble battle of Bennington, sent by him ex -prsss to the country; and lieut. gen Bur goytie’s instructions to col.

The fo! lowing invocation, by the committee of : . rangement, harmonizes well with the ot: er arrangements fur the celebration of the day.

"We have to record snotner melancholy rase of destruction by lightning.—On Wed nesday evening, the whole heavens s-emed covered with dark and angry clouds.— These were charged with an unusual quantity ufthe electric fluid. 1 The peals nl thunder were rattling and frequent, and. flashes of lightning, sharp and vivid, came m rapid succession. About 5 o’clock, the rain fell in torrents. The'whole surface • if the earth was covered in a few moments with water; and where the descent was considerable, it rushed down with surpri- , ng impetuosity. Tnc hilts of the capitol square,where tiict were not protected by turf were washed into large gullies. The pave, meat or. Governor’s street, which has a considerable descent, was washed up— many of the gutters on the difterenl street sustained a similar injury. A young gentleman, of the name of Allen, was on the Church Mill, in the house of his .mother, a w idow lady, we un lersland, fruiu the neighborhood of VVil liamsburg. A stream ol lightning struck the gabel end of the house, on the side he was standing, passed almost in a direct line down the wall, and struck him as he iv.il, standing, it is supposed, with his head clining against the window frame. 11 was instantly seized with strung convul sions and expired in about twenty mm utes. A lady, perhaps a sister of the deceased, was above stairs, seatnl at the window, ami immediately over his head. She did not touch the side of the house; to vvhic i t umatance her preservation has been at- .ributed, but the shuck'vassogieut as to drive her several feet from lies seat to the middle of the room.
