in thofa who were ignorant of them, or in

demonstration of its being an imported dit
eafe, numerous ftorfe have been propagated
relative to their crowded conftruftion, want
of common sewers, and other cau es gene
rally alTietied as the source of difeale.
New-York, and all the seaport towns in
the Northern States, are built on situations
remarkably elevated, and exposed to the air
of the sea. In their conftruftion they are
equal to any town.?- in Europe, and in
no inftaoces so thickly bu.lt ; in general
they are remarked for having tew of the
common autumjial complaints, andean boatt
perhaps, ef as high health as any towns til
the wprlv* , . r t
The city of Philadelphia is at a confidera
hie diftatitr from the sea ; though Gtuate on
the banks of two noble rivers, it Hands on a
fine open plain equally tflevated as I.ondon,
arK l tlic country around it, on all fides but
onc r -,f s „>to gentle hills, lite ihol'e ol Mid
diefex and Surry ; on the river below it,
are some meadows, but they are equally
drainei and cultivated, and by no means io
extensive as these on the Thames, around
London ; its water is in general excellent ;
■ its streets are wide, wt 11 paved, and'perfea
ly drained * a c.owfideruble part of it is iur
nifhed with common sewers, and those parts
to' which they are not yet extended, have
neither been 'so long', or so thickly fettled,
as to experience inconvenience for want of
them ; its houses are in general airy, and
feldoro contain more than one family ; and
the police of the city, the moral order, and
the cleanliness 'of its inhabitants, will yield
tf) no one in Europe, if- equalled bv them.
After having seen moll of the European
cities, I cannot but advance them as proofs
againlt the local origin of iimilar
to the vello>» fever ; leaving the cities of the
North of Europe, situate in climates which
might be supposed in some degree to pro
tea them, and in general of more cleanly
habits, and with a better police, I shall
speak more particularly <rf those of the South
of France and Italy, especially of Marseil
les, Milan, Genoa ind Leghorn. If im
provements have been introduced into these
they are certainly not such as have destroy
ed the causes usually assigned for disease, and
are confined to such parts of them as are
newly conftnlfted; the narrow streets in the
old parts of those town 3 badly paved and I
often not paved at all, their-being the gene
ral receptacle of all filth,* without the at
tention of a police to clcanfe them, the want
of cofnmon sewers, the height and crowded
conftrudion of the houses, the numerous
fareilie* with which they are filled, the rooms
felJom cleaned, and the rooms covered with
cotton and silk tapestry, in lieu of plaifter,
niuft have struck the attention of all who
Ti'fitedthem; if, then, under such unfavour
able oircumllances, these towns thus situa
ted, in one of the hottest climates, where
the winters often have no froft, not only
liave never known either that, or any disor
der of the kind to originate among them,
but have been able entirely to rid themselves
of the plague by their quarantines, and en
joy a high degree of health ever since they
were adopted, it affords the ftcongeft argu
ments against the origin of the yellow fever
in the towns of Notth America, and in fa
vour of their being wholly relieved from
it by the eftablilhmerit of similar regulations.
It is clearly demonstrable, that the dis
ease does not remain in the cities of

NORFOLK BOROUGH. '
At a Hustings Court btld tbe 22d day of
April, 1799.
The cterk laid before the court sundry
pamphlets containing an address from a ma
jority of the general affsmbly to the'citizens
ot the' commonwealth, for the purpose of,
having them distributed under their autho
rity, which was ordered to he read. j
The court taking the fame into their moll
serious consideration, are imprefled with a
firm belief that they cannot, confidently with
■ their duty, takf any ill promoting a niea
j sure which to them appears to originate 111 the
'cxercile of powers truly anomalous and
alarming—injurious to the public welfare,and
deftruftive ef all order—to maintain which,
is their peculiar province, as well as boun Jt n
duty. Adting under the obligation oi a so
lemn oath to lupport and drf'eiid the consti
tution of the United States, aud ever mind
ful of its lacred injunctions, and fully per
suaded of the sincere attachment and un-'
fliaken fidelity of the fitizens of this com
monwealth to the government of their choice,
thev cannot allow themselves to be the 'n
ftrumenfs of difleminating opinions and
principles tending to undermine the federal
authority, and may probably lead to a ditio
lution of the social compaft.
While the court are ready to applaud tbe
vigilance of theii fellaw-citizens in watching
over, and 'oy a becoming jealousy preventing
any irvcroachments upon the rights of the
people by those in power—(fill it may be no |
less their duty carefully to avoid being mil
led by specious intriguers, who, concealed
under the alluring garb eft superior patriotism,
are artfully projefting plans to promote their
personal aggrandizement—to sap the foun
dation of our excellent constitution—to fever 1
our union—and finally, to bring" upon our
envied and happy country all the horrors
flowing from civil discord—than which no-,
thing in the opinion of the court can be more
calamitous. Invariable in their conduit,
this court will, to the best of their skill and
ability, faithfully and impartially discharge
•their duty, without regarding the frowns, or
courting the smiles of any man, ot set vf
men, in or out of power; and in no other
manner can they fatisfy their Gonfciences, or
their God.
for the reasons here enumerated, and not
being bound to fulfil an ;i£t of tbe legislature
destitute of the legal forms required by the
constitution, though incapable of contraven
ing any known laws of land.
The court, after mature deliberation, una
nimously determine, that the pamphlets trsnf
mitted them, fhnll remain in the clerk's
office for the infpeftion of those who are in
clined to peruse them, fubjeft to the future
order of the Executive : that a copy of this
proceeding, attested by their clerk, be for
warded to th; governor, and published in the
papers of this borough.

Tlie trial of Jc.lin Frirs, for tr.'flfon, com
menced 111 the Circuit. Court, of tlje United

overruled by the court, and the trij ordered
to be proceeded on this morning.
A I. Alt'rEH'S CONSCIENCE !
A certain eminent lawyer was not long
linse extremely vociferous in denouncing
Fries and his. associates. He swore they
(hould all be hanged—he infilled on the ne
cessity of fending an army to quell the rebel
lion and seize the traitors—Now, forfooth,
there was no rebellion—no traitors ; nothing
but a fimplehafty riot that {hould have been
tried at the county leffi ons. Was he so
anxious for the army to that they
migkt catch clients for him ? He is not 011-
lv to be their advocate at their trial,'but en
deavored todefeat all trial whatever. In his
concluding harangue on his motion to re
move the cause to Northampton, he fell in
to the democratic cant about the liberties-os
the people—the oppressions of government,
See. See. How loon bad company spoils a
man 1 Some people who have not the gift
of a double conscience, are a little surprised
to fee this man in dole and brotherly counsel
with Dallas, whom he has so often execrated
as the vilest of mankind-! O ! Gold !
" Thou visible god,
That foldcreft close impossibilities,
And rnak'ft them kiss ! thatfpeak'ft with every
tongue,
To every purpose ! Oh, thou touch of htai t»!"
Surely those days foretold by holy writ are
pproaching, when the Lion (hall lie down
with the lamb, and the young child play with
the ierpent.
MALLET DU PAN.
To disprove the assertions of the directory,
and their partisans, that thf peasantry of
Switzerland were oppressed- by slavery
and poverty, before they taitght them the
new rights of man, relates the following
anecdote.
I cannot without pain recolleft a scent
which passed before my eyes year a
go. As I w*s returning from Zwrich to
Berne, 1 fell in at a hail.'.Toms village, three
leagues from the latter place, with a rural
wedding, which was at once a picture of Ae
manners and prof'perity of the Country; *lt
was a cultom among the inhabitants who
were in good circumftatices, to give "a wed-
iing icaft at some distance from home, at
one of those better kind of intis which are to
be met with initially villages. The bride
and bridegroom' with their "relations and
t'rieffils, arrived in twoand twenty carriages,
which were all ot a green color, elegant and
,s full as they could hold. After th? mar
riage ceremony, the company returned from
the ehurcli to the inn ; as they came near, the
: >andof mui'.c belonging to the regiment of mi
litia, in which the bridegroom happened to be a
ion-commidioned officer, played several flow
lid solemn airs. Twenty-l'even couples filed
-AT in order and silence, their countenances
md deportinafit indicating refle&ion. The
iride was not more than four and twenty
\ ears old. Sh? was ornamented'with lace,
a'irofcgay, and much more by her beauty;
uer clothes were made of a fuperfine black
l'er'ge, and in the faftiion of the country ; her
hair hung plaited to her heels : the height
ind ease of her person, the delicacy of her
l .atures and the bloom of her complexion
a.ftinguifhed her in the midst of her com
panions ; flie was the picture of modeftv.
The bridegroom drellcd in hij regimentals
(according to a rule fcrupulaufly oblerved)
wras not inferior to his bride in psrfonal en-
dowments in youth and modesty. The whole
party were muth alike in point of appearance;
'heyhadnofu-parfluous or afife&ed ornaments,
iR was rich withcilt being taudry.
The mirth of the day was tempered by
a sense of religion, and the party did not
forget at the ina the ceremony which'had
been performed at church, where a solemn
engagement had been contra&ed in the pre
fence of theD.ity. Dances preceded the
repast which was furr.ptuous and abundant :
the firll toad was to the State, the next to the
pried who married the young couph, and
whose children wera placed near the bride
and bridegroom. They fat at table a eon
fiderable time, from which they rose for the
ball; but throughout, decent gaiety, ord-r
and fcbriety prevailed.
j The happy pair did 110! return home to
1 their village fer two dayi. The expence of
the inn had been previously agreed upon at
60 Louis d'ors,and the pay music, alms and
presents, ra fed the sum to 75. Cn expres
sing my a'lmuftiment at this cxpence. the
■inn keepr put an end to it bjr iuforminj*
me, that the youiig woman was nn heiress
with 150,000 Swiss liyTep, (near ro.oool.
Sterling,) and her luifband a farmer and
linen draper, poflefled of a fortune at least
equal to hers.
These were the fort of people whom the
Paris mountebanks, came to convince with
their cannon (hot, that they were (laves, and
that the remedy to their misfortune j was to
be found in tie pliilofophy at Chenier, in
the conftitntian of the year itl, and in Tri
bune harangues i
It the ruidft of the afftiSing feats an invo
luntary thoughtof the horrors of the French
Revolution crossed rny mind and call a mist
on tlie fccne : seized with a secret dread, T
implored the almighty to ave t from this
happy country the scourges which France
was spreading through Europe ; unavailing
prayers ! perhaps thi« young woman has
been facrificed to brutal violation,' Derbaps
this happy farmer has fallen by the weapons
of the plunderers who have enslaved his coun
try, perhaps this union which I saw formed
at the altar under the nufpices of peace and
fafety, is. now no mere than a communion of
wretchedness, discord and despair.
ANECDOTE,
The works of the greatelt literary irige- ;
nuity are often riegledled by ihe age in
which thty were written. of this .
Dr. Goldsmith drew the following bill up
on future ages. Mr. Poflerity, Sir. Nine
hundred and ninety nine years after the Jight
hereof pay the bearer or order a thoufsndpounds
worth of pt aife, free from all deduSions what
fcever, it being a commodity that UJi lbe THhtf
•very serviceable to him, and place it to the at
compt tf&c.
James Morant, a cooper of Andover, was
lately found by his son frozen to death.
It is most remarkable,that about thirty years
ago, the deceased found his father frozen to
death : he had a brother who hanged him
frlf, another who broke his neck, a third
who cut his throat, and a fitter who was
drowned.
" During the last fefiion of Congress,
Mr. Living flon of New York called the
Federal army mercenary troops. The epi
thet gave offence, and brought several se
vere remarks on the orator. Gallatin defen
ded his brother democrat, and added, that
there wer« mercenary LAWYERS as well
as mercenary troeps. Mr. Bayard replied to
Gallatin in the following words:
" Mr. Bayard remarked upon the ingeniw •
ity displayed by the gentleman from Penn- \
lylvania in defence of the epithet used by his I
friend from New-York. He had no doubt :
that gentleman well understood the i
word and the thing. He spoke of mercena- .
ry troeps and mercenary lawyers, but there
were other Hiercenaries whom he had omitted.
He might have added mercenary patriots and
mercenary politicians, of whom tve have but
too many examples. He might also have
said, that there were mercenary politicians
imported from abroad, as well as mercenary
troops [Mr. Eggleftsn rose to call the gen
tleman to order ; and was proceeding to Hate
the impropriety of personal refections,. but
there was a generalcry of order—that a mem
ber was on the floor. The Speaker defir.d j
Mr. Bayard to proceed.] Mr. Bayard be- i
li?ved be was put more out of order than the i
gentleman from Pennsylvania ; but what
fell from him might make a dff: rent tm-'
pression upon the gcntlem:.n from Virginia.'
He was faying, that awongft other mercena
ries there might be mercenary politicians.
He did not know why he (hould be under
wood as haVing particular reference to per*
sons in that haute. Did the gentleman from
Virginia mean to alledge that any perlons
were described by what he said. He (hould
be glad if the gentleman would point them
out. When the gentlerian from Pennfyiva
uia spoke of mercenary lawyers, he supposed
he did not allude to any honorable gentleman
on that floor of that profeilion. He believ
ed further with refyett to mercenary politi
cians, that there were some who were doubly
mercenary; they received pay from their
own government, and actually served a fo
reign government, whilst they are receiving
pay of their own."
