It is with real pleafuue we announce, the fafe arrival, in this port, on Monday lad, of the Ship Columbia, Capt. Gray, from a voyagje of adven sure to the North Weft Coaftof America. I his Ship, in"tompany with the Sloop Wafll ington, failed 011 the 30th September, 1787, and the year following reached their place of deltina uon from whence the Columbia failed with urs , which Ilie disposed of in China, on her re turn home. To Meflrs: Barrel], Brown, Bulfinch, Hatch, and rintard, who planned the voyage, their coun try in indebted, for this experiment in a branch of commerce before uneflayed by Americans : And to their care in providing every necetlary for the comfort and convenience of the crews, may, under Heaven, be attributed the extraordi nary degree of health which they have enjoyed ; having loss but one man, by sickness, since they failed. _ Their country is also tinder obligation to the intrepid Navigators who have conducted this voyage—whose urbanity and civility have secu red the friendfliipofthe aboriginals of the coun try they visited ; and whose honor and intrepi dity have commanded the protection and refpedl of the European Lordr of the foil, to the American t ' lat another nation hath been for bidden to be unfurled on the coast. The Columbia and Wafliington are the firft A merican vessels who have circumnavigated the globe—and the Washington, which is only of 90 tons burthern, is the firft Sloop of any nation e ver sent on so great a voyage. On the Columbia's arriving opposite the Cas tle, (he saluted the flag of the United States with 13 guns ; which was immediately returned therefrom—and on coming to her moorings in the harbour fired a federal salute—which a great concourse of citizens aflembled on the several yvharfs, returned with three huzzas, and a liear iy welcome. We are told, that one of the natives of the Island of Ovvhyhee, arrived in the Columbia. NEW-HAVEN, August \ I On the 10th of last month, about four o'clock in the afternoon, (the wind blowing frefh, and the weather being thick and foggy) the (loop Friendfliip of this por*t, John Ward, matter, ran on a reef of rocks, near St Peters, a little to the westward of New foundland, and was loft with her cargo of pine lumber ; by which unfortunate accident, Mr. Richard Tritton, owner and fupcrcargo of the velTcl, was drowned ; the reft of the company got on the rocks, where they remained about 24 hours, (without any suste nance) when they were taken off by some people from the shore, who treated them with great uukindnefs, refuting to let them have any of the articles driven on Ihorc from the wreck ; —and after fluttering a variety of hardftiips they got to St. Peters, where they took pailage in a vcflel bound to New-York, which landed the mate and people, at one of the points of our harbour, last Sunday, butCapt. Ware proceeded in the vessel t/> New-York. Mr. Tritton, was a native of Halifax, about 40 years of age, has resided several years m this city, and has left a widow and two children. ———— PETERSBURG, August j On Saturday lafl, the Sheriffs of the different counties in this Diftri<ft, met at Brunfwick Court house, and after comparing the polls, returned William B. Giles, as duly eledted a Representa tive to Congress, in the room of the late Theodoric Bland. N E W-Y O R K, August 18. Government is formed in order to promote the general good, j and that government is best which tends most directly to that end. 1 The best security against the abufQof the powers of government, i. knowledge.—lt is indeed highly probable that a bad govern | ment will extinguish knowledge among the people, or that know t ledge will reform a bad government. But tho an enlightened people would certainly attempt the reform, they would risk and fuffer much in the undertaking—Even fucccfs has its dangers — for in the period of fermentation of men's minds, the love of no velty would conftautly demand, and an acute ingenuity would ' supply an infinity ofucw (chemes, which would prove pernicious —Efety one would be an innovation, and every innovation in ■ some degree unlettles the ftne of security which men form focie ; ties to enjoy—This uncertain state is dangerous to liberty.—-A wife people therefore who enjoy liberty* have much at hazard, when they listen to those who advise to weaken their government. But when the government is derived from the people, it (hould be considered as tha fafe>-guard of liberty. Instead of abftraft / 'pinions, let us appeal to fads which we all, remember, and most of us with pain —In 1786, the government of the Union was no 'lore than a lhadow—drms were taken up in the eastern part of ie Unired States. Wjs liberty more fecurethan at this period ? Those who tall ihemftTves champions for liberty, and who exhort ■11s to take away part of the powers of the National Government, • I "> as to brine if nearly to the admired standard of the confederati on, will deliberate whether the) are not doing all in their 'power a. ainft our liberties. This is the government of the people—by educing its powers thev would diminish their own. They can only ast as a body by means of' a government. When govern ment is difTolvcd, every cnan being reduced to ast as an individu- I, becomes nothing—The Deople have always been cheated by he tale that they arc to get the power which government loses— wheieas, their ambitious leaders exercifc it, and the people have | onimonJy loft much of what thev had before. $3* Dr. Price's Revolution Sermon way be had of the Editor, ■ Price 1/7. 563 FROM THE PENNt'• 'LVANIA MERCURY IMPROMPTU ON HEARING OF THE DEATH OF GOV.

NEW-YORK, AUGUST 18 Last Thursday evening the St. Andrew's Society of the State o Vew-York held their quarterly meeting at the City-Tavern. The society, anxious of shewing their refpeel to the c laratler of Col. M'Gilli vray, availed ti emfelves of his pretence in this city, and unanimously' ele£ltd % him an honorary m. iriber of the society, and immediately after a committee was appointed to cortdutfc him to it. The Colpne) was introduced to the presiding officers m their places, and received the compliments qf the fpciety. When the bufipefs of the society was finiih d, he partook of a collation provided for the occcafion, and mingled with great affability in the feftivity of the evening. An opcafional song was prepared and sung by a vifyiog friend, and addrrffed to the Chief in term* so artless, and yet so affe&ing, as touched the hearts of the mem bers with sensations uncommonly pleasurable. The society were honored with the company of tlUfc" Hon. Samuel Jqhnst<?n, Senator of the United States from North- Caralma, who had previouHy been elc&eid an honorary member by a meeting of the society specially called for that purpose. On Saturday last The President of the Uni ted States—His Excellency GoV. Clinton—The Secretary of State—Hon. Judge Blair—Colonel Humphreys, Major Jackson, and Mr. Nelson, embarked on board the Hancock Packet, Capt. Brown, on a tour to Rhode lfland. Extra ft of a letter from Bojlon, Augufl 2. " This day the ship Columbia arrived here— the particulars of her voyage you will ffee in the pa pers.—This mercantile enterprize does hono\ to the concerned.—There is no attempt too ardu ous for the adventurous spirit of Americans The sons of Columbia traverse the globe by sea and land ; and nothing bounds them but the limits of creation. To what eminence mull such a people attain under the fofteringcare of a wife, just and energetic government ; but the misfor tune ol the world is, that there is scarcely oni good government in it. You will perceive by some late publications, that violent suspicions are entertained that a want of redlittide and real pa triotifui have stained some recent transactions in ours, while in its infancy. Should these things be true, the felfifh, unprincipled, avaricious wretches will find that excrations will follow them as their shadow, so long as anyone remains to utter curses—but for the honor of human na ture, and of our country, I hope better things." The lottery mania appears to rage with uncom mon violence. It is said there are nearly twen ty lotteries now 011 foot in different States. The faleof tickets has been uncommonly rapid. Lot teries have been formed, published, the ticket! fold, and drawn in the Courle of 10 or rj days. The rage for adventuring however begins to a bate, and it now takes months to comple.nt, what has been tranfadied in a few days. Odd numbers have been so very fortunate, especially if fold to a very poor man, who borrowed the money, or parted with his coat to procure the ticket, that it is recommended to the fabricators of lotteries in future, to designate every ticket by such number °nly—the sale would be immensely expedited by the meafore. So exceedingly fti ong was the faith of a certain person in odd numbers, that he purchased every ticket in a late lottery, whose number contained three threes. He however paid his full fhai e of the dedutfiion for the bene fit of the lottery ; but he imputed his misfortune to an extraordinary run of good luck which at tended the intervening odd numbers. There are some advantages which result from lotteries: A person for 6 weeks drank one dram less every morning, in order to save money enough to buy part ot a ticket. The Adl for the relief of Adam Caldwell, title of which was published in our last, did not pass the Senate, but was referred to the next felfion.
