In refpedt to public ac ;ommodations wc were also most mife rably dekdfive. The scene is entirel; changed. We may now challenge an; city in America to produce so mam elegant and commodious inns as in thi place; and it has been observed tha (inte tficir effablifhment, Albany In become the fafliionable resort of peopli on their way to the springs, or on thei travels; formerly, on the contrary, so the want of decent and comfuriable ac commodatiom, their only study was ti .'lrar themselves of this gloomy retrea asfaft'as possible.

I When the canal* were fir It in con templation the year 1791, peo ple at large viewed the attempt as im practicable, and tii< visionary project of some distempered brain, but the e vent has proved, that all the commerce, and evert the settlements of this northern and western world would have been W&StIJ. neatly arretted in their progress but for the canals: cfpecially as the former mode of transporting produce by Height in the winter, can no longer be depend ed on; as it is found, by the attentive observation of old people, that the ex tremes both of our winters and summers are greatly ameliorated. In a word, it may be truly said, that the completion of the canals has in one sense lengthen ed the noble river Hudson into our northern and welkrn extremities as the produce is now collcfted in (tores, (built on the margin of the rivers of t extenlive wateis) in the winters, and (hipped from thence in river craft, to this market in fummcr.

IN the trial of the Revolutionary Com mittee of Nmes, by whom, under the direilion of Carrier, so many cruelties were perpetrated, few circutnftaiices more affec ting occurred than the ftfi.'owing account, given in evidence of the plunder of a Cha teau, andth- ruin of afamily. The de tail of such incidents must be interesting, the' it causes the mind to revolt with hor ror at the miseries which war and above all, a civil Mar engenders.

Chaux, replied, yes, of grief that Arif- i tocracy did not succeed. The judges remindedChaux that heought not to interrupt the course of evidence, or intimidate the witnefles ; that the fur- j ther they entered mtodebj e* the more dif refpetfful he becim;, & that he must have j perceived that so iar from his conduct being approved, every body was ilifgufted ; at it.

The .-ircumftances that led to his conviflion ire entitled to notice. It was proved, :hat he and his wife set out on horfe jac k from Taibert on the evening ol he 27th with an intention of going to he Fair of Lillowell.
