It is raid to be General Moreau's inten tion to call a meeting of the Committee of the States of Wirtemberg, at his head quarters. According to the treaties between Wirtemberg and France, on the 17th ot July and 7th of August 1 ~g6, the sum of four millions of livres was to have been paid to France, but as scarcely one fourth ot it has been paid, the French General will enforce payment of the arrears. He also demands that the troops of Wirtemberg be immediately recalled from the Imperial army.

Carnot in an address to the Prefefts and the Generals of the different departments of France, so far from confldering peace as certain, exhorts them to prepare for a new (tene of warfare, and arcelerate •he depar ture of the second class of conlcripts, " in order to make a last and " terrible irrup tion into the enemy'* territory.' 1 liis however, weie it unconnefVd with any other circumstances, might be coifidered as little more than a bo&ftful expedient of intimida tion ; and, indeed, the M'nifter at War admits, in a prr-at measure, that such is a&u ally his obje<3 t He fiys, that wh'le France continues to present herfelf to foreign pow er» in this commanding pollure of corcen trated and vi&orious force, they will not be induced to" reject that peace that is again offered to them, and which their reveries "have not rendeted more severe." Ihe terms now offered not being more severe than those proposed by Buonaparte pievious to the late fuccefles of the Republican arms, Carnot very artfully describes them as a | frelh proof of moderation 011 the part of the j conquerors ; and expressly dates, that if th y ar.- refilled," it will be. neceflary to make a final effort, and todiftatc the peace which tliey n >w (•ffer."

ExtraS of a letter from the /mtrican Consul in London, deceived by the Argo, arrived a; Bofion. 11 A number of neutral vsflels bound to and from Cadiz have been captured by Bri tifli cruisers and sent in for adjudication.— One was boarded by a King's fliip and fuf fered to proceed—then by a privateer and warned not to go into Cadiz. In attempt ing afterwards to get in. (lie was detained by another privateer for adjudication.— The King's advocate being desired to give an opinion thereon, gave the following : « The port of Cadii has not (so far as I am inform-d) been notified by our jrovern- 1 ment to foreign powera to be in a (late of blockade. American vcfftls, therefore, at temptirg'to enter that port, will not be con fifcable, unless they (hall have been previous ly warned not to proceed th'ther, and the port be at the time aSual/y blockaded. I know no inltance in which ttie question has arisen, whether warning by a privateer, is a fuffici er.t prohib tion not to proceed. But I in. cline to think, that, as the vefTil, after such a notice, would knowingly attempt to enter, the penalty would be incurred. If, how ever, the vefiel, from having been just ex amined hya King's (hip, had reason to doubt the truth and authority of the warning from the privateer, she might poffibiy be war ranted in proceeding towards the port in or der to erquire more accurately into the faft the blockade. Upon this point the quef lion is so far new and doubtful that I think t hs captor would be juftificd in submitting jt to decifioo of a competent tribunal. J. NICHOLL. July 15, 1800.

Extract of a leilcr from a gentleman at FtlPs Point, to hit find in this,city, dated, Septembe2, 1800. On Saturday I buried a yourg man who has lived with me between two and three years ; -on Sunday my wife was fafely de livered of a daughter, and I hope and trud will do well ; on Monday I buried my eU dell daughter, and this day my only foil ; the woman we had to attend my wife ha» been sick for ten or twelve dayg ; my ne*& door neighbour's tfife, her mother and four children, are down with th« fever, and no perfen to do any thing for them but him felf, and he hasjuft got np out of a severe attack of the fever ; above half of the peo ple have moved to the country ; yesterday and the day before the do&ort all left ihi» place, they have been very unfuccefsful in this fever ; there are one or two French doftori remain, and are said to have been of service to some that our doftur» had given over. I never experienced such dif» tress in my life before. Perhaps no past period in the hiffory of this country, has teemed with such a multi tude of medical mountebanks, as the pres ent. The venders of patent medicines in aim oft every capital town in the United States are battening on the weakness and folly of a deluded public. The regularly b cd physician adminjfteri, in v in, with the (kill ot Galen, his salutary potion* While one empiric can be found, mankind in gen eral will encourage him. Foreigners who fee this growing pafiion for patent physic, leave their homes to try a foil where weeds of this kind flourilh with liberal luxuriance. England has loft many of her chief charla tans, and quacks transplant themselves into our country from Italy, Even Turkey is not ignorant of the great encouragement which America extends to those who are solicitous for the health of her citizens. In Baltimore, Ibrahim Adam Ben Ali, physi cian fiom Constantinople, or more probably some crafty native, who has affumcd a Turk» ifh name, and " culled a few fimplea," and indiscriminately applies them ia various and opposite cases, offers a variety of poison un sder fpecicus and plaufibie names He vends the Incomparable Aigeririe Medicine for the scurvy. He has for sale the Infallible Ruf fian Corn Plaifier. He advertises in the fame line his Cord- ials for Weaknafs of the Stomach, and hit (having powder for Smoothing- the /kin* His terms are hfiy cents for each applica* tion, and if he does not effedt a cure, the price of the medicine orly is charged. This latter part of his advertisement appears to be cn a fair principle, but it is very proba ble that he puts his own price to the ingredi ents which ccmp' fe it. To put a stop to this species of imposition is an objeft worthy of legislative interference. 886 'sl A very curiously worded, illiterate adver ::fement is published n a paper,printed at the Natchez, ligned Wra. B Smith, and is dated at Golgotha. From the fpeciracn afforded of the talents of the writer, we may conclude that though it be a {.iace of Jiulis they do abound with brains. For tbe Gazette of tbe United States. IT is no difficult thing to account for the celebrity ai d the extr»fi»e circulation of " the Aurora," when we take into view the following peculiarities, which di(lingui(h it from all other newspapers. First, its ori gin and operation for several years, un.'er the fuperintendance of a grandson of Ben jamin Franklin. Secondly, its publication at Philadelphia, the capital of the United States and hitherto the Teat of Govern ment. Thirdly, th?t it is the official gov ernmental paper of the French Republic, and the only authority to which the British government appeal for tbe truth of fafls re lating to this country. Fourthly, that the wri'.ers in it are chiefly foreign defperadoe# who came or were sent here to write down the government. Fifthly and lastly, that its prtfetit Editor i; a British fubjed. Each of these are powerful operative causes of \ the success of " the Aurora" at home and abroad. The charge so often made against " the Gazette of the United States'' that it is de voteJ to the British, is only a trick of Du ane, to (hist the burden off hit own (houl ders. The Gazet eof the United Slates is co-eval with the Federal Government ; it has always been edited by a native AmciU can, by birth. It was never supplied with materials for its support by foreigners, nor was it ever pensioned by a foreign power. It has been for many years the official paper of the Federal Go. vernment, for publilhing the laws, See. but it is not recolie&ed, that the French or tbe Britifli government ever honoured it with an appeal to it, as such. Its present proprietor and editor is a warm, sincere and undisguised friend to the constitution, the laws and the government of his country.— By these tcftimonials he is willing to be judged, nor does 1 e fear, with those pre ten! ons to the public patronage, to meet the redoubtable knight, the Uriiifli fubjefl, the Editor of the Aurora, William Doane. He is not in league w ih " the enemies" of hit country againll' the Federal government ; S. M. POLITICAL. L-r-Tf-
