SIX Mr. M'Millan,
Be pleased to insert the following in your paper
when convenient. I hope that all the printers who
receive your Gazette will have the goodriefs to pub
lilh it likewise, that the knowledge of it may be
spread generally.
1 am yours refpedtfully,
JOHN BRICKELL.
WHEN a perfen is bit by a mad dog, or other
mad animal, or by a venemotis snake or spider, or
stung by any poifonout animal, our firft object
ought to be to wa(h the poison out of the part, and
to destroy the place where we fnfpedi it has enter
ed beyond the power of washing,
The bite ought to be washed. instantly, and a
little gunpowder spread over it as soon a* poflible
and set fire to. This may be repeated fever&l times,
until the part is pretty deeply burut.
The bitten place ought then so be walhed with
cold water eontbm'ly, until warm water, which is
better can be procured.
The bed way to walh the part is to pour water
I out of the spout of a tea kettle on it, and if the
I kettle is held high above the wound the force of the
J dcfcending dream will wash out the poison the more d
I effeAnally. One or two hundred kettle fulls of j (
I water way be used.
When an accident of this kind happens, people
j are cenfufed and diltreffed to the last degree, every
j person propoflng a method of cure, and perhaps
I none followed steadily. ft is good, therefore, to
I to have a plain prompt remedy, which even Ne-
I groes can put in pra&ice, until medical afliil.ance
I can be had.
At a dangerous feafoo of the year a little gun-
I powder ought to be kept at hand in every family,
and plantation drivers ought to have a little for this
purpose, and be inftrudted how to use it ; they
'H, ought likewise to have dogs taqght to hunt snakes. 3 '
Wheu it is necefla' yto fend Negroes into a jjiace .
■e) of danger they ought to have thick woolen boots >°
I in fide thickly with caUo» Ttievmutht '
tff (lave a retfr ons ot ted wooteii rag dang
ling near their ankles ; if they happrtt to tread on
a rattle snake he will probably bite the rag, and r"
_ his teeth being hooked, there they will (tick, by
I which ijjeans he can'do no more harm. -

This tribnnal, which poftcrity will hardly credit,
m. I c °uld have existed in the 18th century, in one of
a/, the moll poliihsd nations of Europe, had its origin
ue. in the dark manoevres of Maximilian Robefpieire,
a member of the convention, to destroy his oppo- j a ]
• nents, and to afford him every opportunity of re- wa

and terminated its career with the execution of a « P ,
colleague of its founder, and his accomplices, on , h(
;s I ceerr >ber, 1794. • n
The crimes which it lecognized as revolutionary, 1/
were, as appear by the sentences—carrying on cor
respondence with the enemies of the republic, op- u n .
poling the enhftment of recruits, importing falfe Tl
alfignats, composing and publilhing writings in fa- a '
ver of royalty, blaspheming the people and coufti
tution, concealing gold and filvcr coin, refufing to nal
take the constitutional oath, cutting down and de- f
facing the tree of liberty, frauds in the articles of .>,•
c oathing, provision or forage for the armies, ex- '
cU.rn.ng Vive le Roi, f urn i(hing money to emi- f"
Jr grants, checking the circulation of aflignats, at- r
tempting to re-establish royalty, trampling on the th ,
national cockade, and fubflituting the black cock- „

The following letter from Tortola, to a hritlfe ii

ters ox the Federal Gazette.

a ed their applying [o a Mr. Caines, who had attnu
edthe decision of some causes, prior to their ant

Rutter's release, for St. Kitt's.
Let the grievance of the decisions in the court
nc of Vice Admiralty be rtrongly repxefented, their
contradiction to the known praaice of Great En.
s tain, and her courts of Admiralty ; the judges not
confining themselves to the fees allowed by the prize
ts acts, but exacting aad taxing enormous coils, of
which the judges receive a principal lhare, whivh
es muftaft in influencing the determinations. Tlicis
fads can be afcertaincd, as the fees are greatly ra,\
fed iri a cause when the claim is interposed The
n _ conduct ps the judge in the cafe of the Maria W"-
r _ mans, onght to be particularly set forth His o
dering the whole catgo to be fold, to afcettain t ?, e
one third, inltead of its being appiaifed, at i n , .
