The prominent feature of our re cent European intelligence is of the utir.ofl confeejuence 10 the commer cial part of the community. It e- veu embraces a more extenlire range; and the confummation of the plan now in agitation bids fair to put an end to the mifertes entailed on mankind, by maritime war : con- feauently, in its operation the in- terefts of the whole human family are involved. It is well known, becaufe it has been extenfive y felt, what u liufl vexations and arbitrary reflri-Tions our commerce has been fubjecled to by the belligerents during lapfe of years. 1 A- ia(t it appears that one of them j is difpofed to conciliate and render arms, in a (hort period fhe will com- in thole provincies where the peo- mit u national filicide.

The afliftance which a Wife navy, the nation’s glory, in a few, and family are capable of affording years, for-want of foreign lupplies of j to the labors of the loom mav ha-e ! much contributed to a preference given by a lazy people to tins maim hemp, pitch, &c- will become rot ten hulk and ufelefs lumber. And her immenfe national debt will final ly involve her in a national bankrupt cy. A revolution will tread on the heels of her difallers, and her rotten I and corrupt government will give j slice to one that is equitable and long | i' J t - Fhefe are no chimeras of a heat ' imagination ; they are events that perfe.Tly in fine order of nature, us that justice which has fo long been demanded in vain ; and it is confidently reported that a commer cial treaty has been formed between this country and imperial France. Conne£led with this, Mr Adams’ midi in to Ruffin is of th - firfl im portance, becaufe it is well ufeer- tained that the principal object of r°- ’ T 1 ..

John Hopkins, of captain La val’s Troop, is a native ox Souih Carolina, is five feet nine inches hi ;h, has dark complex ion and hair. Charles Merul, of faid Troop, j [fiat all party diltimTions and loci! is a native of South Carolina, twenty-three years of age, five feet ten inches high, has light complexion and dark hair; went off in citizens clothes and armed with either piftols or rifle.

S ong fymptoms of the circum fieription of the Britifh empire in the j Eafi have been manifelled by that j very power which produced its ex- ten ft m ? we mean the military pow- I er in the Engliflr Ealt India fettle | meats. A revolutionary fpiric was j engendered among the officers of' the Ealt India company’s troops ns j the year 1793, and a dif- fatlure. The thread is laid the whole length of the piece of cloth, hence the weavers live entirely in, villages, as they could work no where elfe in this manner. A wea ver among the Gentoos is no d?f- picable call. ..He is next to the feribe, and above all the mechanics. The dfftintlion of drefs in Indoflan, confills entirely in the littell of linen of which the habit is made. The h tbit has at this day the fame cut which it had a thoufand years ago. Ornaments of gold or filver are marks of foppery, which are indulg ed only to their children ? jewels are not worn about the perfon, ex cepting on particular occafion, even by the grandees; the richell man ire the empire Sffetils r.o other advan tage in his drefs, but that of linen exceedingly fine. Here it may bat enquired how works of l’uch extra ordinary nicenefs can be product d by a people who, if what he faid of their mechanics be true, mult be deprived of fuch tools as feem ab- folurely necelTary to fiuilh fuch fine manufaft mes. The furprife will be heightened when we find, that at Dacca, in the province of Bengal, where all the clothes for the ufe of the king anti his feraglio, are made, they are of fuch wonderful fineness early as , covery of fome plans and the manly j 35 t0 exc,:!e ^ ten thnvs the price of and dignified manner in which the ' an y permitted to be made fot Euro- will be baaed obli- ; prejudice; , vion. j In cafe of war, the federal party , in our fca-ports will certainly effi- j cientl%, aid the government: tot in their memovials and petitions for j years pail, they have pro ruled to fupporc ir wit,*i their lives and for- ! tunes, in v; -dicauon of our violated j maritime rights I Our eallern brethren can have no - , c 1 caufe of complaint by being involved Virginia, twenty t lite Veaio o ; j,, the common calamity.
