It is a strong proof of the salubrity of the

f Mr. BENJAMIN WTNKOOP.
Sir,
Agreeably to promise, I fliall now 1 nply
: as concisely aa pofiible to such parts of your
letter as occur to my recolleftion.
The reason why I did not mention the
ctrcumftances which gave rife to the yellow
fever in 1793, was not, as you insinuate,
because those did not suit my
system, or because the dites were so recent
that I was afraid of having the fubjedl in
vestigated ; but, brciufe the colltge of
physicians had publiihe<l their opinion that
. the disease took its origin from contagion,
j and that they believed the contagion had
! been imported by a vefTel from t?ie Weft
■ Indies. Let those desirous of feeing* the
reasons afligned •by the college for their
opinion, call on Dr. James, the secretary
of the college, and fatisfy themselves ; or
read my ( review of Dr. Rufli's book on
the subject, published in 1794.
You ask how certain pcrfonJ-to the nortti,
came to be affe&ed with fever, before those
to the south of the Arsthufa, (which I
have charged wijh giving rife to the dife.ife)
when the wind mud have carried the efflu
via, if any arose from that veflel, in an op
posite direftion to them. This circum
stance is easily explained.—Contagious dis
eases do not require wind to waft them
from one person to another—all they re
quire is the near approach of the found to
the bodies of the sick, or to any porous
substance that hag lately been near the body
of the sick in a confined situation. While
the brig Iris from Oporto was unloading,
the crew of the Arethufa had to pass across
that veflel to get on (hore with their chests,
bedding, &c. ar.d it is natural to suppose,
as some of the bungs flew out of the wine
calks and the mariners were miking merrr,
that some of the crew of the Arethufa alio
partook of their cheer with them. Mr.
Latimer, Mr. Lewis, and others, might
have received the contagion from palling
near thole people with their infefted mate
rials ; those who workccK in fail-lofts from
her fail* and those of the Hind ; and this is
the way that contagious fevers are generally
propagated, and this, I am sure, is one of
the ways that the disease now continues-to
be propagated. Contagion is an invisible
substance, known only from its effefts.
The effluvia of mar(Ke3, of putrid vegeta
bles, or of bilge water, which contains no
thing different from ftagtiant marfli water,
namely, vegetable and animal substances in
a state of putrefadlion, when they have
any effeft at ally only produce an intermit
ting or remitting fever, according as the
fubjeft to whom thejr are applied is morfc.
or less vigorous ; and diseases pro
duced are never propagated by contagion.
Please to permit me to tranferibe the o
pinion delivered gn this fubjeft, by one of
the best informed and molt judicious physi
cians of the present or any former age, the
celebrated Cullen of Edinburgh, in his firft
lines, vol. i
" As fevers are so generally epidemic, it
is probable that some matter floating in the
atmosphere, and applied to the bodies of
men, ought to be considered as the remote
cause of Fevers : and theCr matters present
in the atmosphere, and thus afting upon
men may be considered, either as contagions
—that is effluvia, arising direftly or origin
ally frotnthebody of a man under a parti
cular disease and exciting the fame kind of
disease in the body of the person to whom
they are applied ; or Miasmata that is efflu
via, arising from the stagnant water of marsh
es (which contain more or less dead and
putrefying vegetable matters) producing a
disease in the person to whom they are ap
plied."
" It appears likely that the contagions
which produce fevers are not of great vari
ety ; perhaps there is but onecommon
of such contagions."- s
" For it is well known that the effluvia
ftantly ifluing from the living human body,
if long retained in the fame place, without
being diffufed in the atmosphere, acquire a
Angular virulence ; and in that state being
applied to the bodies of men, become the
cause of a fever which is highly contagious."
" The existence of such a caul? is fully
proved by the late observations on jail, hos
pital, (and ship fevers)."
That these contageous effluvia are render
ed more or less virulent as the dircumftance
of climate' and season happen to concur with
the other circnmftances which give origin
to the contagion has been l*telyconfirmed by
the obfervationsof Do&or Chilholm of Gre
nada an a (hip fever which was introduced
into that ifknd in the vernal season of 1793,
and destroyed one fifth of all the inhabitants
and nearly one half ot all the ijiariners at
that time in purt.
I have foftietbing rrore to [add on this
fubjedt, but ahi obliged to defer it to a fu
ture opportunity. In tl.e mean time ac
cept «f the firi«re!t wishes for your welfare.
From your humble fervnnt,

MR. *iV\'o,
/ An artful, mfidious paper, signed A
' Friend to Mankind, was left at my houfs
the other day. It affects, with wonderful
1 philanthropy, to give advice for the cure
;of the prevailing disorder. Any one who
reads that trash must bt more than a fool
! not to fee at once the object of the writer.
You will oblige me by telling the pale-faeed
hypocrite who wrote it, that if he had any
friendfhip to mankind, he ought to have
damiled his performance b< his name. I
will answer for it, that he who is the friend
• of so many, has not one real friend on ctirti.
T
Surgo-ut-pro/im, the Jacobin Ther/ites,
who has so long furnifhed dull wit for the
1 gitdgeo/is, flimfy scandal for the ipilH-fops,.
and gross lies for the more malicious and
hardened of the Jacobin fed ; has decliued
(the very natural confeqence of a continued
: fairienefs) to a mere caput morluum, an dSi
gy of what once attra&ed some notice.
Every body fays now—" I wonder that
I you will still be talking, fignior Bache, no
body marks yon."
His paltry calumnies have loft even their
power of exciting indignation, and a tran
fien* emotion of contempt is almoit tie only
attention they attraft ; they are now re
garded things of course, arising rather
from 3 native propensity to bafeneis, than
founded on this or that particular exciting
canfe.
A French writer on finances, fays, " the
' various' miseries, created by the Revolution,
! have received as yet no alleviation. The towns
are yet unable to maintain their, police,
tals, or work-houses for their poor,- who can
find no employment
" A tax which has been laid upon Salt is
little better than a renewal of the Gabelle, one
of the principal topicsjkpf all the abuse pour
ed forth again/1 the ela fyfiem : Jlill the roads
are neither mended nor guarded,—nor are the
flreets either watched or'lighted.
" The tenant, deprived of the means rfiob
taining bread by the fatal unhingement of fotit

lution, beholds his defpajfk encrtafed by the ix
prr/Jions of a flerile pity, and'by rhoek laws,
which decree thai men Jhall pay their debts,
while the law makers well know that-thcre is
no money on the foil of the Republic ; because
they have wrung it, by the iron hand of pow
er, from the Wretched people, to emplty it to
the deJlruSion of mankind, and the depopula
tion of the earth.
" All parti of the public ftrvice are about
to fail ; Jlill the government jogs on its plun
dering, depredating courses —hunting over the
wide-spread furface of the earth, for new
feeds of enmity, hatred and discord :—as if
our difaflrout and fatal career had not already
proved a fufficient 'curse to mankind, and not
fufficiently drawn down on our heads the exe
crations of the whole earth.'*

POLITICAL CONUNDRUMS.
Why is the term Federalism like Charity ?
Because it covers a " multitude of Jins."
Why is the term Jacobin like Chymiflry ?
Because it discloses the base properties of a
counterfeit currency.
Why are " Tommy Argus" and " Fool"
fynonimous terms ?
Because the latter is a quality of mind of
which the former is the representative.
In vulgaracceptatiqn thefcare fynonimous.
Why is Tommy a Jacobin ?
Because he is paid for it.
Why is the term so hateful to his ears ?
Because it reminds him of the base properties
of his own venal foul.
Why is the term Federalism so hateful,
to the jacobins in general ?
Because it renews in their minds the recol
leftion of a firm barrier to their schemes
of plunder and murder.
ANECDOTR.
A certain notary beinglately applied to
by a French functionary, for papers relative
to the estate of a deceased Citoyen, declined
the surrender, as not knowing the cha-Ac
ter of the applicant, who instantly puHed
out his pocket-book, unfolded his credent,
tials, and observed, " You are Monsieur !
I ain de Shancellor of de French Confulat
de Sharlelton, and must have de papers!"
The notary very deliberately surveyed the
funftionary's documents, and gravely re
plied—" Sir, I am fatisfied now of your
public charafter ; but as the French govern
ment have refufed to receive Mr. Pinckney
as our ambassador, so it is out of my power
to receive you."«

BALTIMORE, September 7.
This morning, precisely at 9 o'clock, at
the navy yard of Major Stodder, the build
er, was launched, the United States frigate
Constellation. The novelty of the
scene, she being the firft frigate ever built at
this port, drew forth an immense concoui%
of citizens, of both sexes, and of all ages,,
and notwithstanding the carlinefs of the
hour appointed for the launch, the number,
we are warranted in faying, was never e
qualled on any oecafion in this city. The
furface of the Patapfco was covered with in
numerable boats, and the adjacent hills, east
of Harris's creek, swarmed with infpe£tors;
and so admirable, too, were the situations
around, that every one had the pleasure of
gratifying his euriofity, without risking the
least accident.
A number of volunteers, in uniform, were
admitted on board, while others were set to
guard the yard and permit no one to enter,
; unl«fs engaged in the business of the day.—
The workmen, amounting to 200, being
thus kept iinobftiA ted, carried on their
work with such regularity and dispatch, ss
reflected the greatest credit both on themr
selves and their able conduitor. Every or
der was commiiflicated by a taffle from the
drum, and the operations of the men in
wedging ug the veflel, &c. were apparently
performed with as much and preci
sion, as the manual etfercife by a regiment
of veterans. The anxious moment noiv ar
rived—and now description is beggared.
Every thing being In the molt complete
preparations, all the bloeks taken away, e
very man from under the veflel, and the hull
standing upon almost nothing but the'flip
perry tallow, orders were given for knocking
atfay the last ftaunchion: this being done, j
file moved gracefully and majestically down I
her ways, amidst the silent amazement of 1
thousands of fpeftators, to her destined ele- ■
merit, into which she plunged with such ease
and fafety, as to make the hills resound with j
reiterated bursts of joyful acclamations.
Her plunge into the water was attended 1
with so little velocity, that she came to an
chor within ICIO yards of the shore,'' and we
can pronounce, from the authority of able
and experienced judges, that no vessel was
ever taken from the Itocks in a more fafe and •
judicious manner than the Constellation, and I
that no man, on a similar oceafion, ever ac
quitted himfelf with more honour and abili
ty than did Major Benjamin Stodder.
