We arc informed that, in Hageis-Town and i'.s vicinity, about 150 of theinfur {jents hare been made prisoners, among which is the* chics demagogue of Wafh-. ington county, who, it is expc&ed, will be immediately executed as an ex ample to deter others from such treason able proceedings ; that all thofedeludfed people opposed to the excise law were so panic-ilruck on the appioach of our troops that they could not conceal their guilt, and surrendered without oppofiti- on—the mod of them acknowledging their tranfgreflion and giving information of others; and that a fnfficient force is itationed in Frederick to protect that place, in cafe the tioters (hould tfi'ike a-iy attempt, whish is totally improba ble. Balt'mort-Barrtns, Sept. 16, 1794. Mr. Anbkli, " Please to •jnifolii'h the following re medy for the bite of a rattle snake, late iv dilcovered : " TIIE peifon is to put the wound ed limb into the mud of a spring, or into any other cold mud, as speedily as poffiWe, and keep it there half an hour. This will (top the ojjeration of the poi son, take away the pain and prevent the fwellmg. and the perion bit will be per fectly cured in that time, which 1 will make appeal to any pe son requiring it. It, has been proved by experience here, and has never failed. " We have no remedy by herbs that will save one fiom 5 ov 6 weeks of great pain, nor/the wounded limb from fuell ing often till it bii' ft. Moreover I hear of more people being bit this lummer than I e»er iie;,rd of before ii> twenty years, some of-them now are expected to die, which are my re»fons far dtfigri, ing this to be public, and known to every one. I am, Sir, your humble servant, "JAMES CALDtR." " N. B. Perhaps it is worth while toadd, that a handful of cold mud will cure the fling of -a bee, or of a wasp or hornet, in two or three minutes." Yettcrday, afternoon, the body of Mr. John Fisher, Bookseller and Brufhroaker, of this town, was taken oat of the river near the Fort, where hi had been unfortunately drowned. We have not heard the report on this truly melancholy circumltance, which leaves an amiable fath.ly to de plore the loss of a protestor, and foci cty at large to regret a ufeful and in dustrious member. PETERSBURGH, September 23 On Friday last parted through this town on their way to Winchester, the several quotas of Militia from the counties of Lunenburg, IJrur.fwick and Dinwidelie, who have been ordered for the expedition againil the Insurgents—also the Peterf burgh Light Dragoons under the Com mand of Cantain Jeffers. On Sunday and yesterday a eonfiderable portion of the quotas from the counties of Greenfville and Mecklenburg, proceeded on through town —and we have flattering expectations thatatthcgeneral rendezvous at Winchester the Virginians will be fully equal to the Bomber required from this state. Died in Prince George, on the 7th inft. Mrs. Hobbs v consort of Mr. John Hobbs aged about 100 years—her husband now living is about 104 years of age —they have lived in marriageltate nearly 80 years, antl have buried two children, each of them survived above 70 years— a re markable instance of longevity. The fdtorjjing is an ext' aft from the ad dress of the Judge to the Grand Jury, at the commencement of the present fef- Jion of the DiJlriEl Court. It is cause of no lmall fatisfadtion in our country to meet Grand Juries. In that country from which we have copied this branch of our Jnrifprudenee, one great advantage of this institution, is to ft and between the heavy hand o; govern ment, and the liberties and rights of the people ; but with us, it becomes an im portant part of your duty to Hand, tip for the laws when violated, and bring forward . the offending citizen to make atonement for his transgression. Here the laws rule, and there is no impropriety in faying we have no Icing but the laws. Here Grand Juries form a firm support to the laws.— When a member of our community of fends, it is your peculiar duty, colrefted is yon are, from the various parts of the Diftriet, to bring the offender forward, to receive the punishment due to his offence, that ethers may hear and fear, and avoid doing'fo wickedly : You are alfoexempt,in making these inquiries, from the imputa tion of mediing or being busy-bodies, for it is your peculiar duty and you are un der the obligation of an oath. As ours is a government founded on the authority of the people, we have nothing to hold us together, or to protect our per sons and our properties, but the law, could we but for a moment, suppose the laws to be thrown prostrate, the most dreadful consequences must follow—con fufion must take place instead of order, and rapine instead of honest industry.— Thus every man who loves his country, v ill give his whole strength to uphold the laws. The law is no other but the expref fion of the public vill, in which the voice ■ oi the majority must p cv .il, and it sol- ' lows that the minority, are bound to sub- j tliit. I fnall not detain you to prov.: the j necefiity, the propri ty of such fubmtfltoc; ' this has already been so well done by j speeches, by letters, by publications in ) every bodies hands, that I could not fay j more or better than what others have laid; j the thing seems feif-evident. To mention 1 a government of laws, expfeflive of the j will of the people, seems toeairy con-j viAion with it, that is, it must be the will' of the majority, for the minority to refill, . is reverting the eternal and unchangeable nature of things, and aHumm;? a power w ■ h neither God Ilnr j.?.ture ever com- i mittcd to man. Hq-v great mult be the > crime, and how aggravated the guilt of j those persons. who beCaVle a particular j law may b - tifagreeable, or may be incon- j vetj'ent to theiaihall declare w« will not " Submit, we mil not take the regular '• peaceable mocie of i'efefcing inch amend " ruents as- ape proper, by applying to " thofelegiflatoreswhoin v:e hjvtrchofen to " repr-cf«iit us, but we willrefifl, we will " oppose otir force agdinit the wil! of our " Countrv" What is this but rebellion, hut tre9- fo:i again!): our common country, and wounding the roajelty of the iaw ? Let us rejoice that our countrv, where we dwell, furnitheS no instance of such a bandoned depravity^ When we obtained our Indepen dence, at the expence of so much blood and tieafure, it was predicted of us that we could not govern ourselves—thai we wanted both (kill and virtue to matnage a government not conduced by force, and, like the Cappudocians of i/ld, we (hould crouc'i again under the shadow of some tyrant or uturper, who might save us the trouble oi' governing our- {"elves. The nations of the earth have been looking up, they Kive been watching the rcfult of the experiment we have made ; a free govci mnent founded on the will of the people, founded on all the virtues ! The fuecefs of our experi ment has astonished the world—it has ailonifhed ourlelves! Our increase in population, in Wealth, in commerce, our advances in agricultute, in arts, in ma nufactures, are perhaps without ?, pa rallel in the page of history. When lo ! a small tax imposed by proper re prefentativej, to help defraying the ex pence of an Indian war, is refilled, which perhaps, the unjult aggrefiions of some of the individuals may have con tributed to, kiudle again it us : The thing is painful and dittreffing to the mind of every man who took an honest pride in the prosperity, iri the glory, in the happinefsof his country. Whatever others may do,let it be our study, our pra&ice and our delight, to set an example in our persons to incul cate in our communications, a proper respect and obedience, to the laws of our country —if we continue to preserve an honest industry, and yield a rencjy obedience to the laws of virtue and our country, we have every reason to hope for a continuance and an increafc of those blessings which Heaven has alrea dy bellowed upon us; the hope could not be thought extravagant, if we were to adopt the stile of bold eastern meta phor, and fay So will peace jloiu down among us like a river, and the glory of our land like a mighty J!ream. The answer of the Grand Jury. The Grand Jury, return the Judge their thanks for tile feulible and judi cious charge delivered them ; having no prcfentments to make nor any criminal business before them, to your honor's congratulations on having a maiden as size, they most cordially add their own. Enjoying the wifdl and mildest govern ments upon earth they feel every tie that can unite man to man, binding them to fupportthe laws of their country —They have heard with the deepest regret, the attempts made by the factious and ig norant in a remote part of the union a gainll the majesty of the laws; they pledge themfelvcs as far as their influ ence extends to aid in fuppreifing all such vicious pia£lices, which evidently tend to debase the human chara&er, to introduce ariltocracv, monarchy, or wild anarchy, which ends in despotism, and which leads base minds to propa gate opinions that, reason, without such unnatural diltinftions is not fuffi cient to govern men. JAMES CAMPBELL, Foreman. RICHMOND, Sept. 24- ExtraS of a letter from Harr'tfon county, dated Cjth September A gentleman directly from Limestone in Kentuckey, fays that General Scott had besieged and taken Glaize Town, a noted harbour of the Indians, killed and taken 300, with the loss of about 70 of his men—That General Wayne was within about four rtiiks of General Scott's army.

Front t!>e New-Tork Daily Gazette. | Mr. M'Lean, J I have observed in making up the accoi** of our, lofies in the Well-# Indies, we dp not make a fair ft'atement, Hy considering only the debter fide; To me t -it 'appcais, that though we have been injured by thofc depiedati6ns, yet, -ihole.apparant. lotTes have been intermix ed .vidi this^d vantage, that on account 01 w hich our trade has been have recewcd ; large tlio' ft may be objeSed j thai in ratio to the increafeof the pnee or imported articles, is theburthert on the * the bail tendency," iti regard to liberty, from the too great ac cumulation of l ights in the hands of an individual ? Yt t the firit is,in a great mtafure remov ed, wiieu we con liuer, that though the price ot sported arii, les is increlfed, thsty are iliil purraakd as cheap iij foreign coun - tries, and thus no greater proportion of the produce of our own is required in payment; and the last is of lefe weight, when we cons.d r, that if it should be for a long continuance, this consequence might follow; but being only temporary, the dan ger cannot be ercat. Our right to resent the injuries we have received, cannot be doubted ; but certainly our policy may, and I hope our dill-eminent will lead us to avoid the of . other nations, who, by their irrafibility, have greatlv contributed to enhance the sum of thole debts, which sooner or letter uiull prove tlieir ruin. Let us rather contain our just refent meut while they ars exhaulling their itrength by ufeiefs and expensive wars, and be contented with the acquisition of wealth a.id the importance in the scale oi tortious, which we fliall acquire, even ' from their contells with each other. The intention of tho£.- few observa tions, is to induce my countrymen, not to listen to thole perfoiis, who, by ccttitinu ally expatiating 011 the dark fide of the p.eture, would urge thein to violent and hasty measures, which would at least tend to retard our riling greatness, and to sub mit their cayfe to the difpoi'al of our ad ministration, convinced that every Hep Will be taken, consistent with propriety, to secure our rights, and to obtain ccm penfation for our pait loflcs. dc6o PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 30. This forenoon the President of the United States left the city for the ren dezvous of the militia of Pennsylvania and New-Jersey at Carlisle. We leant from good authority, that after his ar rival at Carlisle, he will determine upon a nearer view of things, whether he will return in time for the meeting of Con grtfs, or will take the command of the troops, which are destined to ait againit the Infurgeuts in the Wetlein Counties of this State In the latter event he will proceed at the Head of the combined forces either with the Pennsylvania and New-Jersey line, or the Virginia and Maryland line. The Secretary of the Trcafury ac companies the Prelident. The Editor has conversed with a gentle man who brought the intelligence from Kentucky—he informs that by accounts from a Britilh dcierter, who had left Capt. Campbell after the adlion it appears that the Indians were induced to attack general Wayne, from the intelligence of a Mr. Wells, one of Gen. Wayne's spies, whom they had taken —and who, on being inter rogated as to the ftrcr.gth of the American army, told the Indians that Gen. Wayne had only five hundred men. The Government dispatches are on the road, and may be hourly expeifted. Gen. Scott is not killed, as reported-'-Captain Slough is ilightly wounded, and Captain Van Ranfeliaer, dangerously. At the date of thelalt accounts General Wayne's army was at Fort Dcliance—a bout 40 miles from the scene of the late ailion, where the General had renred to obtain a supply of provisions. dtioO This afternoon an express arrived at the War Office with dispatches from Gene ral Wayne —confirming the Intelligence from Kentucky.
