M. M'CONNELL, Cbesnut street, No. 143. TEAS, The ufeful reading of the Editor of the Walpole paper has furniltied him with the following fenlible extraft, which we will in sert together with t>is sensible commentary " In the lite of Akenside, Johnson has given a faithful and correft delineation of a modern democrat—" He certainly retained an unnecessary and outrageous zeal for what he called, and thought Liberty ; a zea!, which sometimes disguises fiom the world, and not rarely fiom the mind, which it pos sesses, an envious delire ofplundering wealth or degrading greatness ; and of which the immediate tendency is innovation and an archy, an impetuous eagtrnefs to subvert and confound wich very little care wiiat fhatl be ellablifhtd—a more perfefl portrait of a Jacobin diforganizer of the present day, can not poflibly be drjwn than is contained in the above Ikatchof the character of A kenfide. v - ( It it a fad that the unprincipled Char i es Foi, whom the filly dolts of American De mocracy are so much in the habit of admi ring did, when in power and colleague with Lord North, declare that ' the Peop e had no wife, except within the walls of St Stephen's Chapel. ' From venal and French motives he is now a bcllower for re form and the misguided people, now be lieve and call him their fritnd !

On Saturday last, at four o'clock in the afternoon, the Corner Stone of the perma nent Bridge on Sjhuykill was laid with the usual formalities, in the pref.-nce of the President and Directors of the bridge com pany the Mayor, Aldermen, end Mem bers of the Selefl and Common Councils ps the city of Philadelphia, and a number of other Citizen? ; after which the company partook of a cold collation which had been prepared tor the occafi >n. On the founda tion ftorie the initials of the following Words are inscribed : " The first Stone of tbe Sctuyltill per manent Bridge was laid October 18 9 1800, by John Lewis, Mason." The tremendous gale which blew yefler day, we apprehend has done conliderable damage. The bridge at Nefliiimmany, and those acrofc the Schuylkill, it is said, have been carried away. Gereral C. C.

"We arc very much alarmed for our eti fuing crop of wheat, from the Heffiau Fly having appeared to a most extraordinary de gree amongst what has been early sown. One of my neighbours is ploughing up what he had put in. as it was too much damaged to produce any thing, and means, to sow it over again. The dread of thia evil induced me to sow so late that I cannot y»t tell the fate of mine ; a quant ty having sprung up early in my stubble field, I have j carefully examined it, and find almost eve rv (talk infefted with the Fly- I with my brother farmers would immediately examine their wheat, as it is not yet too late to fnw it atsew. if what they have already sown appears to be deltroyed. One of the bell crops I ever had was sown in November I have sown a strip of rye round my field and a flrip acrofsit, which some persons think will prevent the mildew, to which the late sowing* are exposed ; I tlii• k the experi ment worth tryin , and that there is a pro bability of its being f»ccrf»(ul.
