from Liycrpool-at a quarter past two o’clock

anti fifty minutes, therefore, they traversed
a distance of nearly 110 miks in a lineal di

ofthe machine are allowed for, it would
make at least 170 miles. In tli'e course of

The lower classes, and not a few among

and trade of Liverpool, in tliat awful sympo
sium: They frequently, on approaching a
town or village, descended so low as to be
able to converse with the people; by whom
they were often invited to make a call and
take some refreshment; but such niomifig
visits being rather inconvenient, they were
obliged to decli'2 the honor. The noble

torum in Utter contempt ofthe British laws.
Sir, I desire you to put .10 our legislature
the question, how long is this upjust and
injurious practice to continue? IIoiv long
is this insiduoits and undermining destruc-
who hates our ordinances,finds in America
a willing entertainment. The agriculture
of that rival state,—for rival she ever will be
with as much, at least, of inveterate envy as
of honorable competition,—her manufac
tures, and her arts, are to be promoted by
the driift of British population; dpd we pas
sively look on; while our subjects are spec
ding from their native soil by s'.,ip-loads, t<5
enrich a foreign country,—a country with
which we have hot otic common interest,
nor one common feeling,—a country with
which wc have had three.wars in forty years
—a country with which we have no perpetu
ity of peace.
Sir, the artificers from our very dock
yards are, as the newspapers say, transport
ing themselves to America. It is no long
er sufficient that our manufactures are to
give to our—to our comf.eticor at least 1
may say—the means of working our staple
commodities; but our shipwrights are to
build hfir fleets arid our sailors are to man
thefe. Nay, in the event ofthe next war, to
mun them against ourselves; since, accord
ing to the anti-national principle ofthe New-
World, an American residence unmakes a
British subject, and make? an American
citizen:
Are our laws strong enough to prevent
this? If they are, let them .be enforced—
strictly and severely enforced: if they are
not, let new laws be enacted, strict and se
vere enobgh for the prevention. Since
America, while \Veare at peace with her,
will not forbear her sanction of this wrong,
surely it is high time for us to prevent it,
before we are at war with her.'
I know not, sir if any remonstrances has
been made to these modern republicans
against their acquiremen’ of resources which
do not belong to them. But this I will in
sist, rhat the property, the population, and
the skill of every state belong to itself atone,
and that no other State is priviledged
toatqOil-e them. There is an old proverb—
if there were no receivers, there could be no
——; but I will not urge its interference far
ther to say, that, if there spas no entertain
ment abroad, there could be no emigration
from home.
Perhaps, however, wfe are superabun
dant in the goods of the world—too popu
lous, too industrious, too wealthy, too strong
too scientific, and perhaps it is absolutely
necessary to cure our plethora by exporting
so troublesome an overplus of population, of
industry, of wealth, of strength and of sci
ence. Perhaps so. But, happening to have
a Botany-Bay of our own, may we Hot as
well send our waste stock there, as to the
Botariy-Bay of our ancestors? Home.

ing it out again, anolhei- hook was bent
straight, and the anchor again dragged.—
The balloon now forced itself through a
thick hedge; the sudden jerk, occasioned by
which, tinfortunatclypitclied Mr. Livingston
against the side of the car, by which his
head and shoulder were so severely bruised,
that it was thought advisable to have him
let blood, but he is now nearly recovered
At length, by continually keeping open
the valve, the balloon gradually Subsided
in a stubble field, and was finally se
cured without having sustained the least
damage.
We understand that the serial travellers
undertook this long voyage with the view of
trying the power of the balloon, and its
capability of crossing the channel from heme

“The bill which originated in the house of

tlie salaries of the public officers in this state
was taken up yesterday and lost. The ori
gins! object was to get the bill doiVn before
the election for judges and solicitor general*

which is intended to reduct the fees of the*
public Vifficers, spell as sheriffs, clerks of

the state government will be included in it.

the State Legislature was discussed warmly
yesterday ami rejected: arid the bill to fiio
the compensation of members of the Legis 4

“A bill has been introduced in the sen
