HANOVER, (N. H.) Nov. 10.
tuft Thursday there wa9 an elegant
Mhibitton, at Haverhill Academy.
A splendid proccffion was formed by
the members «f the inltitution (about
60) accompanied by the preceptor, the
trustees, and a number of refpeftable
characters, from the feat of the Hon.
Charles Johnlton, Esq. to the Acade
my ; where a variety of orations, dia
logues, and other literary exercises were
t performed, before a c r owdcd audience,
who were highly gratified with the spe
cimens of rapid improvement, which
they severally exhibited.
The beauty of the scene was heigh
tened by a rich entertainment of ma
fic.
Theflonrifhing state of this institution
must afford the most flattering profpeA,
and heart-felt fatisfaftion to the truiteea,
whose object, aided by the unwearied
exertions of Mr. Payfon, the preceptor,
seems to be crowned with fuccefi.
While Education's nurturing hand,
Dispels the milt that clouds the land,
See Science pour her golden rays,
And Genius bloom amid the blaze.

FRIDAY", November 21ft, 179;.
Ordered, That Mr. King. Mr. Ellf
worth, and Mr, Izard, the Committee
who drafted tbe address to the Pveff
dent of the United States, in answer
to his fpeecii at the opening of the ses
sion, wait, on him to know at what time
and place it will be convenient for him
that it should be 'presented ; and the
President ol the United States acquain
ted them that he would meet the Senate
to-morrow at *2 a'clock, at his own
house for that purpose.
Saturday, November '2 2d, I 794.
The Senate accordingly waited on I
» lident of the United States and p
lei-.tedthe following address in answer to
(lis Speech to both Houses of Congrefi:
To the PRESIDENT of
the UNITED STATES,
S I R,
W E receive with pleasure, your
Speech to the two Houses of Congress,
in it we perceive renewed proofs of that
vigilant and paternal concern for the
prosperity, honor and happiness of Our
country, which has uniformly diflin
guifhed your past administration.
Our anxiety arising from the licen
tious and open refinance, to the laws,
in the Western counties of Pennsylva
nia. has been encreafcd by the proceed,
ings of certain felf-created focieties
refative to the laws and adminiftratiou
of the Government; proceedings in our
apprchenfion, founded in political error,
calculated, if not intended, to diforgan
ize our Government, and which, by in
spiring delusive hopes of support, have
been influential in misleading our fel
low-citizens in the scene of infurreftion.
In a situation so delicate and import
ant, the lenient and persuasive measures
winch you adopted, merit and receive
our affe&ionae approbation ; these fail
ing to procure their proper effect, and
coercion haying become ienvitable ; we
have derived the highell fatisfa&ion,
frbm the enlightened patriocifm, and
animating zeal, with which tTie citizens
of New Jeifey, Pcnnfylvariia, Mary
land and Virginia have rallied around the
Itandard of Government, in opposition
to anarchy, and InfurretHon.
Our warm and cordial acknowledg
ments are due to you, Sir, for the wis
dom and deciiion with which you ar-
rayed the Militia, to execute the
will, and to them, for the difintereftcd
ncfs and alacrity, with which they obey
ed your summons.
The example is precious to the The
ory of our Government, and confers
the brigjuefl honor upon the Patriots
who have given it.
We (hall readily concur in such far
j ther provisions for the security of inter
nal peace, and a due obedience to the
t laws as the occation manifeftly requires.
Theeffeftual organization of the mi
litia, and a prudent attention to the for
tifications of our ports and harbours,
are subjects of great national impor
tance, and together with the other
measures you have been pleased to re
commend, will receive our deliberate
consideration.
The success of the troops under the
command of General Wayne, cannot
fail to produce eflential advantages.
The pleasure with which we acknow
ledge the merits of that gallant Gene
ral and army, is enhanced by the hope,
that tbeir vi&ories will lay the founda
tion of a just and durable peace with
the Indian tribes.
At a period so momentous in the af
fairs of nations, the temperate, just and
firm policy, that you have pursued in
rtfpeft to foreign powers,has been emi
nently calculated to promote the great
and eflential interest of our country,
and has created the faired title to the
public gratitude and thanks.

V'ue-Prefident of the United State/,
and President of the Senate.

To which the Pxssident of the United
States was pleased to male the
following REPLY :
CtMTLtMF.N,
Among the occasions whichhave been
afforded, for expressing ray sense of llie
zealous and ftedfaft co operation of the
Senate, in the maintenance of govern
ment, none has yet occurred more for»
cibly demanding mv unqualified acknow
ledgements than the present.
Next to the consciousness of upright
intention* it is the higheil pltafure to be
approved by the enlightened repreferrta.
tives of a fiee nation. With the satis
STATES
fa&ion therefore which arises from tin un
alterable attachment to public order do 1
learn, that the senate discountenance
those proceedings, which would arrogate
the direction of our affairs without any
degree of authority, derived from the
people. »
It has been more than once the lot v
of our Government, to be throwij intar
new and delicate frtiiatibns, and of these;
the infurreftion hat not been the lead
important. Having been compel
led at length to lay aside my repugnance
to resort to arms, I deiivt much happi
ness, from being confirmed by your
judgment in the necessity of decisive
tneafures, and from the suppOrt of my
fellow citizens of the Miliiia, who were
t}>e Patriotic inltrunients of that neces
sity.
With fueh demonrtrations of affec
tion for our constitution—with an ade
quate organization of the militia—with'
tire cftablifhment of neceflary fortifica
tions—with a continuance of those judi
cious and spirited exertions, which have
brought vi&ory to our western army,
—with a due attention to public cre
dit; and an Uilinllied honor towards all
nations, we may meet, under every assu
rance of success, our enemies from with
iri, and frorh without.
