There is no lack of supply of these use
ful inventions, and the demand seems to
keep pace with the production. There ;
are numerous patents now claiming
public favor, among the number, the
“QuakerGity,” which is said to perform
well and give general satisfaction
to purchasers. It will be seen by Mess.

they have just received a fresh supply,
to which they invite attention. All

Struck l>y Lightning.
Wc had quite a rain and thunder
storm to visit our city on Wednesday :
night. It commenced in the city about 1
half past 11 o’clock, and for a short
time the rain fell heavily. We under
stand the house of Mr. Story, in the j
upper part of the city, was struck by j
lightning. It first struck the chimney,
and passing through the roof, entered
the building through a window, which
was shattered to pieces, and made its
exit by the bell wires. The occupants,
except a negro woman who was stun
ned, escaped uninjured, although they
were nearly suffocated by the sulphuric j
effluvia.

Mr. Editor:—" Sic transit gloria cat- j
wildibus' ” —or, as your brother Jones ]
would render, in vulgar parlance, ‘ an
other wild cat defunct”—and it is!
strange that this important event has'
not been “chronicled” in the Chronicle, i
I do not, however, attribute this to any
decline in the general surveilanco of the
corpulent aid-de-camp of this meritori
ous print, but to the dog-days now be
ing in their zenith ; and due allowance
must be made to the effects of obesity
upon the activity of the cranium in
such scorching weather. But as .a no
ted a Her has gone to the tombs of the
cat Ui j, from a due regard for the
usages vhich prevail in such cifces, I
must ask to be allowed a small portion
of your paper to publish the event.—
The institution which has recently suc

sidered it advisable to change its deni

the terror, iy its glaring outlaw: ies, to

Alston found it expedient to issue his

The production ot Peaches, this se.-. !
son, at Kalmia, a barren sand ridge two j
miles beyond Aiken, has been most
abundant. Ou Friday last, the 16th
inst., seven hundred and li ty boxes,
and forty five baskets of peaches were
picked and packed at that place, and
shipped thence to Charleston via the tt.
C. Railroad, in four heavily laden cars,
the boxes for New York and the baskets
for Charleston ; estimated to \ ield a re
turn of about $4,000, no inconsiderable
item to be realized, in a single ship
ment, from the otherwise sterile Sind
hills of that region. A box contains
about a bushel and a half, and a basket
about three pecks. The founder of
Graniteville is entitled to the credit «*f
having thus made the barren fruitful,
and the desert to rejoice and blossom us
the rose—manufactures and horticulture j
have alike owed their impul-e to his
enterprising spirit.— Ch. Courier , 21*/.

Interview with Washington nt Phil
ndclphla—Description of Congress*
New rury port, Mass., May 12,1808.
A few weeks ago I visited Watervilie,
Me., a beautiful village situated upon
the banks of the Kennebec, and the
seat of a very excellent college under
the patronage of the Baptists. While
wandering through the library of the
institution, Prof. Smith directed my at
tention to a thick, antiquated duodecimo,
bearing the title of “ Tracts.” Upon
opening it, J found that it was made up
of two distinct works, the first of which
is probably the only one in the United
States. I have read it with intense in
terest, anil have had a few passages cop
ied for the Journal of Commerce. The
title page is, in full, “ An Excursion to
the United States of North America, in
the Summer of 1794. Embellished with
the profile of General Washington, and
an aqua tinta view of the State house
at Philadelphia. By Henry Wanscy F.
iA. S. * Nothing extenuate, nor set
j down aught in malice'—Salisbury,[Eng
land :] printed and sold by J. Easton ;
sold also by G. Wilkie, No. 57 Paternos
ter row, London—Second edition, 1798.”
Mr. Wansey was an intelligent, edu
cated gentleman, at the head of manu
facturing enterprises in Salisbury, and
one can see from his work that he has
stuck to his Shakspearian motto. His
“ Excursion ” is of the deepest interest,
and his sketches of places and society
are lifelike and graphic. He reached
Boston via Halifax, and after remaining
in the former “town” several days, pro
jceeded to New York byway of Spring
field, Hartford and New Haven. In New
York he was intimate with the Jays,
| the Livingstons, Gen. Gates, and others
of note; and at some future time 1
j shall give you extracts from his de
scriptions of men and things in your
i metropolis. From New York he jour
neyed by stage to Philadelphia, and the
i notices of the villages on the route are
! exceedingly quaint and interesting. I
! now subjoin an account of his visit to
Washington, and a few observations on
j the Congress, then sitting at Philadel
phia. His eulogy of Washington is
! certainly not surpassed in justness or
i eloquence by any writers of more mod
jorn times. I have retained his style,
[even to the punctuations. And the
j only addition is the division into sub
jects. Hoping soon to recur to this
; subject, I remain, very truly yours,

INTERVIEW WITH THE PRESIDENT OF THE
UNITED STATES.
I June Oth, 1794, I had the honor of an
j interview with the President of the Uni
ted States, to whom I was introduced by
Mr. Dandridge, his Secretary. He re
ceived me very politely, and after read-'
J ing my letters, I was asked to breakfast, j
* 1 confess I was struck with awe and
veneration, when 1 recollected that I
was now in the presence of one of the:
greatest men upon earth—the great
Washington—the noble and wise bene-,
i factor of the world !as Mirabeau styles
him —the advocate of human nature—
the friend of both worlds. Whether we
view him as a General in the field,
vested with unlimited authority and
power, at the head of a victorious army;
j or in the cabinet, as the President of the'
i United States : or as a private gentle-!
i man, cultivating his own farm ; he is
; still the same great man anxious only to
j discharge with propriety the duties of i
. his relative situation. His conduct hits'
always been so uniformly manly, hon
orable, just, patriotic and disinterested, j
! i that his greatest enemies cannot fix on !
; I any one trait of his character, that can j
deserve the least censure. His paternal
regard for the army while he comman j
’ ded it, his earnest and sincere desire toi
• ! accomplish the glorious object for which i
they were contending, his endurance of
I the toils and hazards of war, without]
■ ever receiving the least emolument from
. his country, and his retirement to pri
. vate life after the peace, plainly evince
: that his motives were the most pure
1 and patriotic, that could proceed from a
■ ; benevolent heart. His letters to t-on
gress during the war, now lately pub
: iished in England, as well as his circw
‘ i lar letter and farewell orders to the
[ armies of the United States, at the end
t ; of the war, show him to have been just*
| ly ranked among the fine writers of the
! age. When we look down from this
-1 truly great and illustrious character,
upon other public servants, wc find a
glaring contrast; nor can we fix our at
tention on any other great men, with
- out discovering in them a vast and mor
tifying dissimilarity.
PERSONAL APPEARANCE OT WASHINGTON.
The President in his person, is tall
' and thin, but eroet; rather of an cn
- gaging than a dignified presence. He
Ntppears very thoughtful, is slow in de
livering himself, which occasions some
! to conclude him reserved, hut it is rath
> : er, l apprehend, the effect of much
thinking and reflection, for there is great
appearance to me of affability and ac
commodation. He was at this lime in
5 his sixty-third year, being born Februa
. ry 11th, 1732, O. S. but he has very lit
tle the appearance of age, having been
’ all his life-time so exceeding temperate,
f I There is a certain anxiety visible in his
! i countenance, with marks of extreme
. i sensibility. Notwithstanding his graet
attention and employment in the affairs
• of his well regulated government, and
; of his own agricultural concerns, he is
in correspondence with many of the
I eminent geniuses in the different coun
> tries of Europe, not so much for the
> sake of learning and fame, as to procure
! the knowledge of agriculture, and the
. I arts useful to hiscountry.
WASHINGTON ON WOOL GROWING,
j I informed his Excellency, in the
sj course of conversation, that I was a
manufacturer from England, who, out
jof curiosity as well as business, had
] made an excursion to America, to see
: the state of society there ;to inspect
their various manufactories, and par
ticularly the woolen, with which I was
acquainted. The General asked me
what I thought of their wool? I in
imined him, that I had seen some very
I I good and fine, at Hartford, Ct., which
; they told me came from Georgia; but,
in general, it was very indifferent; yet,
from the appearance of it, I was con
■ vinced it was capable of great improve
ment. That, to my surprise, in the
course of traveling two hundred and
fifty miles, from Boston hither, I had
; not seen any flock of more than twenty
or thirty sheep, and but few of these ;
; from whence I concluded there was no]
great quantity grown in the States, so']
a.s to answer any great purposes for man- 1
ufacture. His Excellency observed, that 1
fr«»m his own experience, he believed it]
capable of improvement, for he had,,
been trying some experiments with his!'
own flock (at Mount Vernon;) that by
; attending to breed and pasturage, he]
'] had so far improved his fleeces as to!
; h.tvfj increased them from two to six
pounds a piece ; but that since, from a‘
multiplicity of other objects to attend !
to, they were, by being neglected, gone!
back to half their weight, being now!
scarcely three pounds. I took this op- j
port unity to offer him one of my pub-j
lications on the Encouragement of s
Wool, which he seemed with pleasure
to receive.
BREAKFAST WITH A PRESIDENT OF THE
UNITED STATES IN 1794.
Mrs. Washington herself made tea
and coffee for us. On the table were
two small plates of sliced tongue, dry
toast, bread and butter, &c., but no
broiled fish, as is the general custom—
Miss Curtis, her granddaughter, a very
pleasing young lady of about sixteen,
sat next to her, and her brother George
Washington Curtis, about two years
older than herself. There was but lit
tle appearance in form ; one servant
only attended who had no livery ; a sil
ver urn for hot water, was the only ar
ticle of expense on the table. She ap
pears something older than the Presi
dent, though I understand they were
both born In the same year; short in
stature, rather robust; very plain in
her dress, wearing a very plain cap, j
with her grev hair closely turned up!
under it. She has routs or levees,
(whichever the people choses to call
them,) every Wednesday and Saturday,
at Philadelphia, during the sitting of ■
Congress. But the Anti-Federalists ob
ject even to these, as tending to give a ;
super-emincncy, and introductory to
the paraphernalia of courts.
OUR FIRST PRESIDENT NOT EXEMPT FROM '
TROUBLE.
After some general conversation, we i
rose from the table, to view a model i
which a gentleman from Virginia, who
had breakfasted with us, had brought
for the inspection of the President. It
was a scheme to convey vessels on navi
gable canals, from one* lock to another,
without the expense of having flood
gates, by means of a lever, weighted by
a quantity of water pumped into a re-! 1
! servo! r.
The President has continual applica- ,
tions from the ingenious, .as the patron
of every new invention, which, good or]
bad, he with great patience listens to,
and receives them all in a manner to
make them go away satisfied.
] CONGRESS AND CONGRESSMEN IN 1794—]'
THE GALLERIES CLEARED ON A('
COUNT OF APPLAUSE.
Finding the Congress were still sit-:
: ting, and expected to adjourn every day,
: I lost no time in going to hear the de
bates; after calling on a gentleman to
' whom I had a letter of introduction, I
! was accompanied b) him, and heard an
: interesting debate on the political situ
ation of the country, in respect to Great j
Britain.
On entering the House of Representa
j tires, I was struck with the convenient
arrangements of the seats for the mem-!
hers ; the size of the chamber was about
j one hundred feet by sixty ; the seats in!
| three rows formed semi-circles behind
! each other, facing the speaker, who was
in a kind of pulpit near the centre of
| the radii, and the clerks below him;
every member was accommodated for
writing, by there being likewise a cir
cular writing desk to each of the circu
lar seats ; over the entrance was a large!
i gallery, into which were admitted every j
| citizen without distinction, who chose
| to attend; and under the gallery like-;
j wise were accommodations for those
| who were introduced; but no person,
■! either in the gallery or under it, is suf-.
' sered to make any marks of applause or
! discontent, at what is debated : it being
i understood they are present in the per
son of their representative; this has
j been a great error in the new French
government; an attempt, however, was
! once made to introduce it here (in March
J Inst) by a clapping of hands at a speech
which fell from Mr. Parker; but the
whole house instantly rose to resent it,;
! and adjourned their business, being then
in a committee, and the galleries were
cleared.
Over the door, I observed a bust of
, Or. Franklin, the great founder of their
liberties, and the father of their present
Constitution :
“Eripuit c.a*lo fulmeu, tyranuis."
A serious attention to business mark
ed the countenances of the Representa
j tives, who were all very decently dress
ed, which is not the case in all houses
’ of that kind, meeting for the dispatch
[ of national business. The members!
that I heard speak the first day, were ■
Mr. Sedgwick, Mr. Drayton, Mr. W.!
L Smith, Mr. Ffoz Simmonds, and Mr.
Tracey. The speech of Mr. Lee, mem-;
berfor Virginia, in a committe on Mr.
Madison’s famous resolution, was so:
handsome a commendation of the Brit- j
ish Constitution, in preference to the
l new French government, that I shall i
subjoin it in this place, being then 1
: much talked of and approved.
1 A movement is on foot for holding a ]
State Convention, at Now York, the l
object of which is placing in nomina
tion for Governor the Hou. Gerrit
Smith. Circulars for this purpose are
1 being distributed throughout the State. ]
particularly in Oswego, Madison, Onan- :
daga and adjoining counties.
The Boston Advertiser says that at 1
. the armory of the Fusileers, may be!
, seen a six-pound cannon, raised from]
the deck of the 84-gun ship Chessman
; of the Russian navy, sunk in the har
bor of Sebastopol. Al 3 inch shell, ta
ken from the Malkoff tower, accompan
ies the gun.
Yankee Music for Turkey. —Mr. B. j
A. Burditt, of Boston, has just comple
ted an order to furnish the national airs
of America for the army and navy of
j the Sultan of Turkey.
! Mills’Statue of Washington. -The ar
tist, Clark Mills, is busily engaged on
j his great national statue of Washington
the castings for which will be commenc
ed in about three weeks. The artist is
endeavoring to surpass the universally
admired equestrian statue of Jackson.
A Woman Licensed to Preach.— At;
the recent annual session of the Ontario
Association of Uni versa lists, Mrs. Lydia
A. Jenkins received a letter of fellow
ship as a preacher of the gospel. Her
husband is also a minister. This is sup
posed to be the first female who ever re
ceived a letter of fellowship from auy
ecclesiastical body.
