at Gibraltar, from whence to the Capes of

the Philadelphia lay at Gibraltar,

number of others, were obliged 10 flfj» *heii

Our informant further adds, that the fleet

returned from -Cadiz to Gibraltar; With
out eftetV'ng any thing, an-i h?d again

yoke literary articles witli political detail
and corumercia .notices. Thi» plan thp
above Editors are about to foliotf. We
undrrftai'.d tint a Gentleman of principle*
purr, and of elegant letters, is to be associa
ted in the defigil. It it unnreefTiry for
us add that though we doubt, we warmly
v)isb, success to this liberal fchrmr. We
lliould do injollice to tie supposed Editor,
if we fupp'elled the publication of the
following ferfible remarks, extrafted
Irom his ProfpefUu.]
S e iV A R K s.
IN a country, where Government lives
and ails by the constant consent of the peo
ple, it is all.important that the mind of the
people be founc. Errors in opinion will
generate errors in praftice. When the na
tional ninij is efltanged' from jult maximsj
the national will mutt be expedited to ue
pe veife.
That irewfpapfrs hive great influence up
on the sentiments and dtfpofi'.ions of evsry
community, in which they are circulated, is
verified by uniform experience and ohferv.t
tion '1 o these fotirc j s a preat proportion
of men look for political infoi M.ation.—
Hence these publications ws engines of 1111-
mrnfe force, either to prop the bulwarks of
society, or to lh ke them to their founda
tions; and tVere is realon to believe that nc
itiflitutions, sacred or civil, can Hand againd
the tonllant j-epeiitio*, by the press, of un
< qutradicled falfehood, unexpoled riiifrep,
fcnt.ition, and ur,confuted lophiftiy. The
modern Innovators ar.d l)eftrt»Yeri, aware
of this truth, hove (eizrd upon the I'lefsWiih
avidity, that by governing tlw moral, they
might control the phyiical power of society.
Believing that human nature is prone to be
come what it long contemplates, and to act
in unison with its ohjeft ; they have never
(topped at the occafiomil, or tianfient im
preflion of their dbOru e' ; but by pref nt
mg them continually in every form,' aimed
to mark them lo deeply upon the mind that
they (liould influence the lift, and inevitably
become principles of conduct. Under the
impofipig names of Flulofophy, D;uioci?cv,
and Republicanism, they have propagated
sentiments and feelings naturally ptudu&i/e
of irreligion, anarchy, and the diff lution of
every moral and social tie. That tlif efforts
of Jacobittifm have h: d an alarming fucceis
in our country, mud appear to every one
who reflets, that the very bed of govern
ments have sometimes been fcarce'y aMe to
move ; that the principle of refiOunce has
appeared to be too much for the principle of
redraint ; that the prejudices and pa (Hons
of the community have been prevailing over
its reason and intercils } and that our fingu-

In the town of Bellirica (MafT.) is now
living a Mr. Ebemzer Rlchardfon, a re

enjoys a good cor.ftitution, nianageshis

has the bcjl prof peels ! !
Agriculture—ln one as the last Moni
teurb a caution k given to cultivators, by
reciting the cafe of a proprietor of ,200
productive acres of ground near Paris,
who ordered all the Jlones, which were
abundantly strewed upon its furface, to
be removed, from an ideathat the/ pre
vented the growth of the corn. The
consequence was, that instead of a rich
harveit, his ground scarcely produced
any thing. On consulting the neighbor
ing farmers, he was advised to replace
the stone as they were before ; and hav
ing complied with this advice, his labor
was repaid by an abundant hurveft.—
The inference drawn from this statement
is, that the ft ones, when leathered over
the foil, prevent its becoming clotted
and hard. They shelter also the young
blade from the wind and the blast ;
they fetain the humidity which would
other wife be evaporated, and they are
pronounced, on the whole,, to be highly
favorable to the progress of vegetation.
We afe informed, that a proclama
tion was lately iflued by ToulTimt, com
manding the Negroes to return to the . '
plantations to which they belonged and

mutiny broke out among the Blacks,
which was quelled by 12 of tic-ringlea
ders being executed.

Spaniih Etiquette.
The etiquette of the Spitnifh court
was the most severe in Europe. One of
their kings fell a viftim to it. Philip 111.
being newly recovered from a dangerous
malady, was fitting near a chimney, in
which was so large a fire of wood, that
he was almoit ftifled. Etiquette did
not pcrmiet him to.rife, nor a common
ddmefti'c to enter. At length the Mar
quis de Poßar, chamberlain, came in,
: but etiquette forbade his interference,
. and the Duke of Ufi'eda, malter of the
t houfehald, was sent for. He was gone
out; and the flame increased, while the
king bore it patiently, rather than vio
late his dignity. But his blood was so
i heated, that next morning an erysipelas
of ihe head appeared, and a relapse of the
fever loon carried him off.
