" The preparation for the inauguration which
takes place onTufeday next, are all fini/hed. The
ceremonial will be the fame as was observed on
the coronation of Maria Theresa. Agreat num

witnefles of this grand gala ; during the three
days that the feltivity will last, the King alone is
to appear in a mourning habit. The people with
"what the Italians call a Cocagna, which is a tem

round with all kinds of provisions, .which at

"the whole building is the cypher of Leopold, with
the words Opes regtim corda fubditornm. This in

CATHOLICISM.
Tuesday evening last arrived in town, his
feat at New-London, Samuel, Bijhop of the Pro
tejiant EpifcopalChttrch in Conneßicut —and onVVed
nefday he performed divine service in the Prefoy
terian meeting houfe—(which the {ociety's com
mittee very liberally tendered him for that pur
pofe)—The auditory was numerous and refped:-
able, and conduced with that pleasing demean
or which ought to chara<fterife all profeflors of
Christianity, and lovers of concord. Sixteen
Episcopal clergy were present, the senior of whom
presented Mr. Trueman Marjh, of this town, for
Ordination—who was admitted into the holy or
der of Priesthood by the Bifliop. The solemnity
and deportment of the young candidate, com
manded attention.—The Bilhop's discourse disco
vered extensive erudition and native genius—and
was delivered with that energy which could not
fail to engage and influence his hearers —all seem
iugto unite in commending the ingenuity aud
gift of the preacher.—lt was not noisy eloquence
without sentiment; but solid reasoning drawn
from sources of the Holy Scriptures—and pro
nounced, as became a vjtrkman not to bi asham
ed—with great cafe and perspicuity.
NEW YORK, July 3.
It is with fmccrc pleasure we inform the public, that Major
Doughty, who was reported to have been killed by the Indians,
on the river Tenaflee, fafely arrived at Forc-Harmar, on the Ohio,
the 15th of last month. This valuable officer was charged with
imp riant public business to the Chickafaw and Choftaw nations
of Indians. While ascending the Tenaflee, on the 21ft of March
last, he met a party of 40 Indians, in three canoes, having a whi e
(1 tg hoisted. This party were a banditti of Cherokees and Shaw. -
noele, with three Creeks.
The Major was in a barge with ensign Sedam, and fifteen non
cominiflioned officers and privates. The Indians appeared very
friendly, and their Chief, and ieveral others, even came on board
of the barge. They received, with the greatest apparent thankfu!-
ness, presents of corn and tobacco. They endeavoured by every
means in their power, to persuade the Major to land, and pafsthc
night with them, promising to hunt turkies and buffaloes for him ;
but he being fufpifious of their design, evaded their entiestics.
Alter having thus pafiVd apwards of an hour, they (hook the Ma
jor by the hand, and lefihim : But the men had scarcely took to
their oars, before they received from the Indians a severe fire,
which was instantly returned, and the boat put about. The barge
then floating down the stream, an ince/Taut fire ensued for four
hours. During this time the Indians m«.nifeftcd an intention of
boarding the barge ; but the cool and well dirfted fire of the Ma
jor's party prevented the design. The Major loft five of his
killed, and fix wounded, one of whom died afterward?.
Having his force thus reduced, he was unable to rituru up the
TcnalTee, agtfinft the stream : He therefore descended that river,
and the Ohio, into 'he Ma(Tifippi,and arrived, on the 25 of March
last, at L'Ancc-a-la-Graife, a Spanilh post, about 4-5 miles below
the Ohio.
The Major was received by Monfirur Foncher, Lieutenant-Corn
mandant of the post, feitU the great eft politei*eli and .attention ;
and every tenderness and care were (hewn to the wounded, ihree
of whom were left at the post, being too badly injured to b* re
moved.
Capi. Hart, who had brrn previously dispatched by the Ma
jor into the Chickafaw nation, joinded him alterwarils on the
Ohio.
We have authority to inform the public, that M'Gillivray, the
principal Chief of the Creek nation of Indians, together with a
number of the Kin<;s and head men of thr upper and lower Creeks
have let out from their own country, in order toviGt the President
of the United States, on the affairs of their nation. It is expell
ed they will perform their journey by the way of Richmond
The distance from the country of the upper Creeks to New-
York, may be efli mated at 1400 miles.
The Chiefs areaccompunied by Col. Willet, who has orders to
provide for their accommodation at the public expcncc.

facbufetts to his Excellency Gov. Hancock
" The people of this Commonwealth must
ever retain a grateful sense of the virtue of their
fellow-citizees who loaned their property and
a yet stronger obligation to those who have ha
zaided their lives for the public fafety. Com
panion to the fufferings of many of our creditors
exercifesour inoft anxious attention ; the solemn
allurances of repayment, which bind us and our
pollcrity together with the justice and urgency
of their claims, will prompt us to exert the pow
ers of government, for their relief. Nor may we
hesitate to perform this duty, from considering
the Situation of the public obligations, when a
failure of con-plying with governmental promis
es, from the neceflities of the people, have been
the real cause of rfceir depreciated value.
" With your Excellency we are fully in senti
ment, that the debt contracted by this State for
defence of the Union, ought to be adopted by
the United States, as well from considerations of
justice, as true policy.
" Pofl'efling the powers of revenue it is but just
that they fliould also afl'ume the public debt ; and
we entertain the strongest hope from the decla
ration of the Legislature with the
which have been given to our Senators, that this
desirable measure may be adopted.
" Should we however be disappointed in this ex
pectation for the brefent, although we are fatis
fied of our inability at this time to discharge the
principal of the debt, we /hall conceive it "to be
our indispensable duty from the belt resources of
the State to provide for theintereft."
James I. was one day mounting a very unruly

TRUMBULL —the painter.
A letter from London, to a gentleman in t!ii s
town, lhews in what high efteenr, as a Painter
Mr. T. is held, in Great-Britain. The writer
fays, " If yon fee Mr. Trumbull, I refer it to
your discretion to veil him, what Mr. Horec:
W alpole lately told nieof the " Sortie at Git"
RALTAR," that "he found it difficult to be perfuai
ed, that Jo fine a PiSiure iai yet been paint-.d in
gland." Though I mention it rather to give yon
pleafnre, than from any other consideration ; ss
it is more probable that Mr. Trumbull already
knows it, than that his modesty has fuffered him
to communicate it to his friends."
St. JOHN's, June ri.
We have been informed that the hate commo
tions in Martinique, were occafioncd by an Edict
ilfued by the National AiTembly, to compel the
planters of that Island to (hip all their produce
to France, for payment of debts due there the
planters claimed their accustomed privilege of
felling their Sugars, in Martinique, or of ihip
ping thein to whatever port they pleased, where
they could procure the bed prices—Thus were
two parties formed ; the one confiding of the
planters, the Military and the Viscount de Da.
mas ; the other of the Merchants and the reft of
the inhabitants—and it iso wing to thisftep that
so much blood has lately beenfhed.
