But without having recourse to conelu fions drawn from the nature and phenomena of the difcnfe, from former observations, and the uniform experience of ages, several circumstances occurred, previous to and at the time that the disease firll made its ap pearance in Philadelphia, which convince m» that it derived its origin from foreign contagion, and not from the effluvia of da maged coffee. A malignant and contagious fever had been introduced info Grenada, and from thence communicated to several other Weft India islands, as has already been related, previous to its appearance in Philadelphia. Between these and Philadelphia there had been frequent intercourse. At the very time that the Amelia was discharging her cargo, the fans-culottes privateer from Nantes arrived with a prize (hip called the Flora of Glasgow. The privateer had touched at Martinique, ac cording to the report of Dr. Keaton, ftir geon of the Citizen Genet, and took in se veral fre(h hands. Upon her arrival at Philadelphia, her prize, on the 28th of July, came along fide of the Amelia, and the ereyr, which upon landing received their prize-money, dispersed themfejves into dif ferent lodging houses, among their country men who had taken refuge in Philadelphia. Two took lodgings at Richard Dennie's nearly, opposite the wharf. The firft cafe that occurred was in Dennie's house. From this single spark, which made its appear ance on the 2d or 3d of Augurt, a blaze was kindled, which in the course of three months destroyed 4048 lives yrithin the city and suburbs ; besides a number in the country who received the infection in the city ; particulars of' which have been de tailed by Mr. M. Carey in a pamphlet. This lodging house lay in a direftion un favorable for any effluvia to be conveyed to it by the wind which prevailed at that time, as maybe fcen'in my review of Dr. Ru(h's opinion published in 1794. That the disease was imported into New Haven in 1794 ; into New York in 179J ; and into this city the present year, I have already (hevrn in my firft and second letters to you. I (hall now close the fubjeft of our iiiicullion with observing, that those physicians who aicribe the origin of that fever, which has occasioned such deplora ble mortality in several of our commercial cities, as wclf as in the Weft Indies, fij»ce the year 1793, to the exhalation of putrid vegetable fuhftatices, betray the most un pardonable remiflnefs in their researches in to the nature and h'ftory of disease?, or wilfully (hut their eyes against evidence that woul<J neceflarily enforce Conviction in every mind not adluatcd by some malignant mo rive. Nctwit'nftanding oilr difference in sentiment, I remain, with fiucere wishes for your health and welfare, Your most obedient servant, WM. CURRIE. For tie Gazette of the United sTales. MR. BENJAMIN WYNKOOP. 0 Sober 10th, 1797. SIR, IN the lafl letter I addrefTed to you, I omitted mentioning the account given by Dr. Schotte, of the origin of a contagious yelloiu fever at Senegal iu the year 1778. " On the 4th of Aiiguffi (fays Dr. Schotte) in the year IjfH, a contagious fever, diftinguilhed by yellowness of the j furface of the body and black voraitting, ; made its appearance in a hospital at Senegal j in Africa, at a time when the rains were hea | vy and the iflartd was overflowed with water, • the contagion of which was brought from ! Goree, a garrison belonging to the French, iby some black mefTengers. The contagion of this fever was so a&ive, and the disease j so mortal, that of- 92 white people who | were on theifland, only 33 were alive when ! the French invefled'h in Jafluary 1779, and !8 of these were hardly able to walk. Two ' of them were afterwards drowned in crossing the bar of Senegal—and three died on their pafTage to France."—ln this fever the eyes were red and shining at the beginning—but became yellowjn the courfs of the disease when it proved mortal &c. If the fails and arguments which have been offered in the course of our oorrefpon dence, are not fufficient to convince every impartial enquirer that the malignant fever, which has occasioned such deplorable mor tality in different places since the year 1793, did not originate from the effluvia of vegeta hlepuirefaftion ; but from'febrile contagi on, ge»erattd originally in,the confined and impure air of ships,- and imported from the Weft-Indies, additional arguments, in proof of this, mas be drawn from the disease having .tilways made its firft appearance in the seaport towns, and in families that re side or tranfail business near to the wharfs frequented by seamen ; from its having been confised, for fotne time, to the neighborhood where it firft appeared ; from its having been afterwards propagated by contagion, and no other way, as evident from all those escaping who secluded themselves from all intercourse with the deceased ; as was repiarkably the cafe with 200 prisoners confined in the jail ' n ! 793» the pensioners in the alas house, and thd patients in the hospital: and from its not ceafinjg to spread, after heavy rains, while the atmosphere continues warm, which is invariably the cafe with bilious fevers oc casioned by putrid vegetable effluvia. Physicians, as well as philosophers, are too apt to ascribe any extraordinary effedl to a coincidence or accidental occurrence of circumstances totally independent and un connected with each other, instead of tracing it to its genuine and neceflary fourcc. Thus in 1793, btcßufc a quantity of damaged coffee happened to lay in a dock near the neighborhood where the disease firft appear ed, it was ascribed to that circumstance, though from the nature of the disease, it could noP possibly have had any more con nexion with it, than a quantity of millstones that lay in the fame neighborhood. To fa vor this opinion, the season was called a tropical one, though dry and in every other refpedl one of the most healthy that we had had for several years. In 1795, when the season was cool and wet, some of the very learned physicians of New-York ascribed it to the mud of the docks, and, in the face of glaring fadls, denied that it was contagi ous, though it was proved by unqueftiotiable fails that it was introduced from Port-au- Prince by the brig Zephyr.*—And the pre sent season, because the streets and wharfs were remarkably clean at the time the disease appeared iu this city, and the atmosphere has been frequently refrefhed with heavy rains, which cleared the air of all impurities and rendered it temperate and wholesome, and no other coincidenee could be difcowr ed, it is ascribed to the bilge water of a sin gle merchant-ship. To conclude, if our climate has become so unwholesome and impure as to convert the effluvia of a few putrid vegetable into a peflileatial and contagious nature, we ought to desert our devoted cities, and fcek an asylum in a climate where we might be se cure from such a deplorable calamity ; for in this we never could be fafe, so long as a vegetable is fuffered to rot in our flreets, or a veflel with bilge water is permitted to en ter our ports. But as there art no fadls but imaginary ones in support of a do£lrine so injurious to the reputation of our climate, and consequently to the interest of our com merce, I hope you will no longer perfifl in your endeavors to give currency, to so pal pable as well as injurious an error. I am, with all due refpedl, Your obedient servant, WILLIAM CURRIE. < * See-letter-fHJin.the NeivOforlc board of health, publifhcd in Mr. Brown's paper of the 24th of Sep ter, 179?. The following Anecdote is- translated from the French Paper, called Europe Poli tique : " An emigrant came to get hi 3 name era sed from the fatal fift. After paying the brokers he had but a small sum remaining. He resigns himfelf to the misfortune, and purchases in the neighbourhood of his form er estate a cottage and a garden, which he cultivates; he has the pleasure, at least, of breathing his native air, and of walking der those bowers which had been the theatre of the sports of his infant years. The pof ftfTor of his estate was not> at ghome. One day he received a letter from him, and in viteshim to do him tjje honor of dining with him. The firft emotion which ke felt, was that of indignation ; curiosity succeeded. The emigrant communicated his embarrafl"- | merit to one of his neighbours, who encon j rages him, from the account li e give's of the j possessor, to meet him on the day appointed. He resolves to do it, and upon his arrival is received with politeness ; he maiWfefts his aftonifliment, wishes to enter into in expla nation, and receives for answer, " Sir, I ne ver speak of business before dinner—it is u pom the table ; your place.'' The emigrant lifted his fcrvice and found three keys under it. "It is your place Sir," said he to the pofTefTor ; " the keys are a proof of it." '« No these keys are for you ; after . dinner I shall explain the enigma." I " The time of dinner" appeared th 'be te ; dious to the emigrant ; at lafl they pafl'ed : into an apartment joining the dining room, : when the poJTeflbr fays to the*emigrant, ope , of these keys is that_of your fecrelaire.— | You will find in it all that you left ; your I money, jewels and papers. Nothing ha's been touched. Another is that of yoty chest, where youv plate and linen are equal ly Entire. The third is that of your cellar; then? has been nothing taken out of it but the wine which we have just been drinking ; they all belong to you as welf as the estate of which I have taken poffcflioiV, an'd here jis the aft of retrocession." " But, Sir, I must be as delicate as yota,and reimburse you what you have paid for it." " No, I _have enjoyed for three years the revenue of your property, and if we were to calculate exaft j lv, the balance would be found to be on my ' fide." We leave the reader to make his own j reflexions up6n this circumstance. The fa£l happened in Normandy. From the Farmer's Weekly Museum. HE is a Genius. Almost every parent will fay of his son, j"He is a genius." -Why ? Because, from a very natural- and innocent prejudice, he believes he is an extraordinary boy. If ge nius met with fufficient encouragement, and your son happened to be one of these rare birds, it might be well to afiiil him him in his flights. It he is not, never lead him into a fatal crrror. I seldom spend an even ing at my neighbour Meanwells', but he employs one half his time in praising the uncommon talents of darling Sammy. He is called upon to speak a number of decla mations, he has learned at school : his'ora tory hasjuft as much merit as his parrot's. His writing and ciphering books are shown,- as prodigies of improvement ; they prove that he has had an attentive matter, and is a very careless. scholar. The foud father be lieves him to be a natural poet : true he is fond of reading ballads, has taught to repeat a number of hymns by heart, and like most children, is fond of the tinkling' of rhyme. He has proceeded so far as to compose a few couplets, that w6u]d be a fufficient antidote to the poetic mania.— His little tricks are related as the marks of sagacity, or flights of genius. lam tired of hearings them. He is is neither more nor less than other boys, and his father is like many other men. 'Tis a pity a lad (hould be made a fool because he happens to be thought a genius. How often is a lad sent to college, because he is unfortunately mis taken for as uncommon youth ?—A father, who has not spare dollars enough to bring up his son at college, would do well never to force him from the beaten tradl of " hon ed industry it ha| peace and plenty on the right hand and on the left. A good common education' the habit of indus try are worth more to a-young man, than the dear bought and ill merited A. M. Many miy flutter on the artificial wings of genius; but few can soar above their'fel loiy creatures. A real genius is a very rare thing ; not to be £een in every family, ex cept by the eye of dotage or ignorance. If a boy, from the produftion of his leisure hours, that his mate# devote to play, can produce a masterly specimen of mechanical genius, encourage his exertions, and let him follow the bent of his mind. If he discover an early propensity to study, will be induf trions in the field,.and forfeit the pad times of youth, for the entertainment of his books, becomes master of his Pike, and a proficfent in philosophy and history, let him drink hi' 3 fill at the Pierian spring—he nvillbe a scho lar. But if he is diflingnifhed for nothing but his flights of fancy, love of poetry, nov els, and plays ; tie him to the tail of the plough, rather than fend him to college. Fancy without judgment is a fine (hip with out a rudder ; it had better he at anchor in a fafe harbour, than be let adrift on the ocean. A genius, without application and economy, is a mere ignus fatuus. ; while it promises to guide the bewildered objeft to the temple of fame, it leads to the vale of obh'vion. < BOSTON, Oftober 6- Tranjlntcd for the CHRONICLE, From a .French Paper. INTERESTING NEIVSfrom CADIZ. AddrefTed to Citoyen Lanuffeatßourdeaux, July XI, 1 797- " The enemy has not incommoded us, since our lafl of the 7th.

" You cannot my friend, how much we have laboured here this week and the last.

The crevu of the chalope which chafed a bombarder have received JO thousand dollars for their bravery—and that 'which cha fed a chalope of the enemy and tool it, have re ceivedfix thousand dollars.
