On account of the Many evil conse
quences arising from a too liberal uie of
opium in our city, ti> some of which I
iiave been an eye-witness, 1 take this op
portunity cf suggesting tt> the gentle
men Pharmaceutists (who in guncr.il
have the distribution of this article,) the
propriety of a ftridt precaution in felling
this article in any of its formula to any
person with whose intentions they are
not informed, and in whom they cannot
place the itViftfctt confidence. They
cer-tainljj cannot be ignorant of the bad
confluences attending their indilerimi
riate gratification of all classes of people
that apply for this important article ;
when many obtain it while under demo
niacal influence, or fanaticifm frotn some
other source, either with an intention
of destroying themselves or some other
person. Any person that is possessed of
the fmalleftfhare of feuGbility or affecti
on foir their fellow-creature's, mud la
ment the deleterious effects so frequently
produced by its imprudent exhibition.
Yet" it it certainly a vet y valuable reme
dy in many of the dileafes to which
mankind are incident ; when properly
exhibited (which must be) by those
who have had an opportunity not only
bf viewing its effe&s, but who are also
acquainted with its morbid influence on
the animal system.
It is also to be regretted that it has
befcome so customary for the mothers
and nurses of children to ftupify them
with their fomniferous potions; (to
save themselves a little trouble) they a
dopt those imptudent measures of keep
ing the tender infants in an almost con
tinual state of sleep (or suspension of
voluntary aft ion) and they not Unfre
quently producc an extindliori of life.
diw
From the above mentioned source of
imprudence, or?ginates a great number
of the cases of imbecility which is so
predominant in this our day: for per
sons ignorant of the effe&s of the
physical causes upon the moral faculty,
are oftentimes inilrumental in the ruin of
the youth conimitted to their charge;
which may be imputed to a falfe opini
on they entertain of felf-knowkdge,
which induces them to undertake what
they are often incapable of executing
except at the risque of the fubje&'s life.

6 Floreal, April 35.
On a report by the Committee of
public fafety and finances, the following
decree was pafled.
1. The young Iriflimen, ten in num
ber, residing at the ci-divant Irish
seminary, in the street of Cheval-
Veit, (hall receive from the National
Treasury, (he sum of 590 livres
each, to defiay the expence of their
journey.
2. The commiflioners of the Marines
ft all take the necefTary measures to
secure their departure as speedy as
pofiible, for Ireland, their native coun
try.
A decree was pafied regulating the
mode of paying the volunteer canno
ifeefs. .
The Convention were informed that a
citizen named Philippe Roufatid, father
of seven children, a labourer in the
diftrift of Tarafcon, had, on account
of the lofles sustained by the peasants
from the depredation* of some fierce
bears, resolved to risque his life to des
troy these animals, and had fucce£ded
in killing two of them. Having been
much hurt in killing the second one,
an annuity of 30QO livrei was decreed
to him.
The Convention were informed, that
a new species of confp'tricy had been
discovered. Ceitain men forged letters,
mentioning remittances of money sent
to emigrants, and subjoined the signa
tures of persons whom they wifh'ed to
destroy. The Convention confidfcring
that the existing laws ate fufficient for
the punifhmen't of this crime, did not
pass any decree.
Letter from the repreffntative of the
People, with the army of the wef- '
tern Pyrenees, and the
bouring Department
28th Germinal, April If;
Citizens Colleagues,
We have returned to Bayonne with
the fatisfaftion of having estinguifhed
the conspiracy, which was olt the point
of breaking out ih the department of
Landes. Onr letter of the 6th of this
month, gave you a detail of the dread
ful plot formed by these wretches, in
order to produce another Vendee, and
give up our frontiers to the Spaniards.
We at the fame time stated the mcafttres
which we had taken to fruflrate that
plot, by ftizing the confpivators, and
the success of all our proceedings.
Since theh we have tifited the whole
department, and have eveiy where per
ceived the happy effects of our presence
in animating the pijblie spirit, giving
energy to the friends of the Republic,
and in crushing and annihilating aristo
cracy and royalifm, which had dared
for a moment to lift their guilty heads.
The severe measures which we have ta
ken have saved that unfortunate depart
ment, and spared the Republic the pre
ciou« blood of many Patriots. The
priests and the nobles were the foul and
the chief of this horrible plot. The
heads of the moll criminal have fallen
on the fcaffold—the others are in chains.
The land of liberty was there more than
any where else polluted by the presence
of refractory priests. These men who
have braved the laws, and the fear of
the fceffo'd, in order to kindle a civil
war in the midst of the country, to
spread devaluation and death, were found
in several cantons of this department.
Seven or eight of them have expiated
their crimes with their heads, and we
announce to you with fatisfadlion,- that
the people of the department, enlight
ened by the danger which they have run,
are now driving them away, eagerly
despoiling of their ornaments, the tem
ples of hypocrisy, impolture, andfalfe
hood, in order to convert them into
temples of reason ; that the silver plate
of the churches is colle&ing ; that there
are already 800 marks in- the diftrift of
Dax ; that there remains only one offi
ciated priest in all the department of
Landes—and what is ft'ill better, their
absence is not regretted. The extraor
dinary commission which has powerfully
seconded us, has executed severe acts of
justice and national vengeance. But,
citizens colleagues, there Hill rema,in
great criminals to punish, and principal
ly in the city of Bayonne. The con
spirators, in consequence of their con
nexions in that commune, made them
selves sure of it, and only desired the
Spaniards and Emigrants to present
themselves before thaf city that they
might open their gates. We are going
to enquire into this criminal correlpond
enee, and you may be aiiyred, that the
blood of all the traitoi# (hall flow upon
the fcaffold.

KINGSTON, May 17.
Extract of a letter from Sir Charles
Grey, to his Honor Major General
Williamfon, dated the sth of Majr>
1794-
I Have the pleasure to acquaint you
of our having made a conquett of Gua
daloupe and all its dependencies, viz.
the Saints, Mariegalante, Deafeada,
&c. the whole having furreudered on
the 22d ult. and having before informed
you of the capture of Martinique and
at. Lucia*, we are now in complete
pofiefiion of all the windward and lee
ward Caribbee islands.
" The trade from England and also
the Cork fleet.aiej&ft arrived, withthe
J 2d, 23d, 35 th and 41ft regiments.
Tbe trade will proceed to-morrow under
convoy of the Swan iloop of war, and
other* will join. The day after briga
dier general Whyte withthe troops will
and put himfelf under your
orders."
* The information alluded to, has not
been received.
In consequence of the above intelli
gence, a feti de joie was fired by the
ioth regiment on the parade of this
town by the 62d regiment in Spanish
Town and a royal salute by the forts
in the habours of Poit Royal and
Kingston.
Nearly the whole of the ports in
Guadaloupe were taken by storm. The
French fought desperately, and loft a
considerable number of men.
A detachment of our forces are gone
against Cayenne, a French settlement
oft the continent of South America, &
their only remaining fettlertient.
NASSAU, [N. P.J June 20.
This morning arrived here the schoon
er Port-au-Prince Packet, Capt. Dell,
sent express from Port-au-Prince with
intelligence of the surrender of that im
portant place; with animmenfc proper
ty/ jn (hipping and merchandize, to his
Majesty's forces.
Mr. Bryan, whocame pafTengerinthis
veflel has been so obliging as to favour
us with the following pai titulars of
the military operations at Port-au
Prince.
On the Ift of June, the fleet, nnder
the orders of Commodore Ford, con
fitting of the Irrefiltible 74, Sceptre,
64, Belliqueux, 64, Europa, 50, le
veral frigates and Hoops, with 4 about 40
fail of trani'ports, having on board three
thousand British regulars, and about
the fame number of colonial troops, ar
rived off Port au-Prince.
Early in the morning of the 2d of
June, a summons was sent from the fleet
to the town ; but the boat carrying
the Officcr with it, was refufed a'dmif
fion. '
At noon the fleet got under way.
The Sceptre and Belliqueux placed them
selves within 300 yards of Fort Briffe
ton, at half pail: 12, and began a most
furious cannonade, which was kept up,
almost without iutetmilfion, till -sunset.
At the fame time that the cannonade
commenced, 1500 trooops commaded
by Col. Spencer, were landed under co
ver of the Fly sloop, two miles weft of
the fort. At 4P. M. they marched
from the landing place towards the fort,
where they arrived a little before sunset;
at 7 o'clock, in a heatfy rain, the troops
a (faulted the fort, and after a short re
finance carried it, with the lot oV about
20 men, among whom was Captain
Wallace of the 22d regiment.—This
gallant officer w«s among the firft who
entered the fort; he had taktnthe Mu
latto General prisoner, and neglecting
to disarm him, the mifcreatit taking ad
vantage of this, feizcd a favorable oc
casion to shoot his generous conqueror;
the wretch was wounded with a
bayonet by Capt. Wallace's servant, but
effedled his escape In the hurry andcon
fnfion, inseparable from such iituations.
In the evening of the 2d, 300 men
were landed on *the fides of Lacahaie, 4
miles from Port au Prince, and were
there joined by .700 colonial trooops
under .{he command of M. le Point.
This corps mwed towards the city in
the night, and on ;}re march encounter
ed and defeated a Wge body, of the
enemy.
This night patted off otherwiie very
quietly.
In the morning of Jane 3d,-two fri
gates came to anchor with the two 64's,
abreast of Fort BrliTeton. The day
was employed in making preparations
for aflaulting the place.
About 8 in the evening, a heavy
firing of cannon and muflietry begs
the city, and continued with little" in
termission during the whole night. This
was afterwards learnt to be an a&ion
between tire white inhabitants and the
Brigands.
On the 4th of June, at 7 in the
morning, the tri coloured flag was hawl
ed down at Fort L'Met, at 9 the faise
was done at Fort St. Joseph, and about
an lioui- after, at all the other Forts.
At this time Colonel Spencer, with his
corps, entered the city, without oppo.
fit ion; took pofiefiion of the different
batteries, hoisted the Britiih colours,
and fired the royal falutc.
General White, with the remainder
of the troops about 3000 men, disem
barked in the forenoon, and marched
into the city.
At noon the (hips of war entered the
narbour, when each (hip fired a royal
salute in honor of his Majelty's birth
day, which returned from the ihote. *
The British forces at the capture of
Port au Prince, were detachments from
the royal artillery, the royals, loth,
13th, 16th, 20th, 19th, and 6?d ; ?nd
the whole of the 2zd ape 4.lft regi
mdfrts, lately arrived from Ireland.
On the Bth instant, a reinforcement
of 1500 men arrived from Sir Charles
Grey's army.
The property captured, ashore and,
afloat, is said to exceed two millions
ileiling in value. ■
Santhonax and Polverell went on to
Jacomtl on the 3d inft. When leaving
Port-au-Prince, they urged the inhabit
ants to set fire to the town and shipping,
apd follow them.
On the 7th inft. Colonel Whitelocke
and Captain Rowley, failed in the Fly
(loop, with General White's dispatches,
for England.
Our last accounts from America wear
a more hostile appearance than ever.
Our readers have in this paper, the cor
respondence between Mr. Hammond
and the American Secretary of Statej
and will make their own commentjon it.
Congress, we are told, have ordered
80,000 of the American militia to be
embodied. This, fooie fay, is requi
site to give rdpedlibility and authority
to the federal government, without en
tering into a&ual hottilities, defenfive
or ptherwife ; for, in the disposition
manifefted by some turbulent spirits, the
overthrow of the present Ariltocratical
Constitution of America, seems to bean
objcft, many are anxious to accomplish.

When the Democratic Club wasforir -
