THOMAS MIFFLIN. By the Governor, A. f. Dan-vs, Secretary of the Commonwealth May 18 • 2aw3w 1 ' ■ -a CONGRESS. house of representatives Mr. New, from the committee of enrolment, re ported that they had laid before the President for his approbation and fignatiire, the bill for regula ting trade and intercoiirfe with the Indian tribes ; and also the bill to authorize EbencZer Znne -to locate certain lands north-well of the river Ohio. Petitions in favor of the British treaty were pre sented by MefiYs. Gilbert and Ames. The bill regulating grants offend for military services, See, was read a third time and pafied.— The blank mentioning the time of regiftrring war rants was filled up with nine months; that contain ing the time after which no locatians will be al lowed, was filled up with January 1800; and that for containing the time at whicfi persons (hall have redded on lands already located by military warrants to entitle them to remain thereon, was filled with April 18, 1794, [the day on whiclk the aft bore date, allowing ,Capt. Kimberly to locate certain lands on the fame principle.^ The bill afce ringthe compeitfation of the account ant of the War Department was read a third time and pafl*ed. A bill from the Senate was read, providing Paflports for the (hips and vessels of the United States. The house took up the amendments yesterday made in a committee of the whole in the bill re gulating pofl offices and poll roads, and having gone through the fame, and a few other alterations in the bill, it was ordered tp be engrossed for a third reading. Some debate to.ik place on a motion maje by Mr. Nicholas to strike out a clause which o bliges Printers to dry all their newspapers which go by pofl and to put them up in llrong covers. It was said by MefTrs. Nicholas and Swanwick that this provision would put it in the power of poll of fices to Hop the circulation of newspapers altoge ther, by refuting to accept them, on the ground of their not being Sufficiently dry, or 111 covers fuf ficiently ftronjr ; but, on the other hand it was urged by MeflVs. Thatcher and Harper that the former part of the measure was at lead deficeabl;, and that it could not be supposed that the Post-mas ter General would unneceflarily obftrudl the circu lation of newspapers, and that if he did, he would be liable to punishment. The amendment was negativrd ; when Mr. Thatcher moved to strike out the words, " dire£t ing papers to be enclosed in flrong covers," and to add a clause, directing that all newspapers for any particular pod-office (hould be inclosed in a mail by themselves, and ditefled to the said office, and (hfuld not be opened until they arrived at the place of their dedination. This amendment was agreed to, and the bill wasordtred for a third reading to morrow. Mr. Giles tho«ght, it was time to fix on some early period of adjournment. Mod gentlem-n he believed felt anxious to be away. He iherefore, proposed a resolution to the following effect, which was ordered to lie on the table : " Resolved, that the President of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Reprcfontarives be authorized to close the pre/ent session, by adjourn ment ot both houses, on Saturday the twenty-firft inllant. " Mr. Tracy, from the committee of claims made a report on the bill from the Senate, provi ding reeompence for clerks, &c. who resided in 1 luladelphia during the yellow-fever, to which they proposed to add several namas; They also reported on the petition of Alexander i'owlet, praying to locate certain warrants on un occupied lands in the North Wed'ern Territory This reportwas againd the petitioner. Both the reports were twice read, and referred to a commit tee of the whole to-morrow. Mr. Bourne reported a bill supplementary to an act laying duties on Snuff. Mr. W. Smith also reported a bill empowering the secretary of the Trcafuryto lease the fait (prim® of the Unitd State., northwed of the river Ohio? Both the above bills were twice read, and order ed to be referred ro a committee of the whole to morrow. j Ob motion of Mr. Nfcholas the house resolved j itfelf into a committee of the whole, Mr. Bourne , in the chair, on the report" of a feleft committee thereon for providing relief to debtors. After some debate and a few amendment, the bill, as -proposed to he amended by a feleft eommittfe, was agreed to, B committee of the whole, taken up in tne Jioufe, aadordercdto be eagrofied for.a third ' reading. It appears that the former law on this •» Cubic* w-s foxier, a (!,a?

A meflage was received from the Senate, inform ing the house that they had agreed to the bill pro viding for the payment of certain debts o. the U nited States, with some amendments, to which they reqneded their concurrence. A meflage was received from the Prelident, in forming thehoufe that he had approved and Turn ed an ad for erecting a light-hoafe onCape-Cod. Adjourned. DISTRICT OF GEORGLA. The following Charge was delivered on the 2 Jth oi AptiJ, to the Grand Jury of Chatham County, at a Federal Cirauit Court by-the honorable 01 ivet Elfworth, chief Justice of the Linked States^ Gentlemen of the Gran J jfury, This court has cognizance of all offences again d the United States, committed within the diltii&of Georgia, or elsewhere, wiihout the jujifdiftion of any particular date by peifons afterwards found within this di(tri<3. After all such offences, you will therefore inquire and due presentment make. Your' duty may perhaps be deemed unpleasant, but it is too important not ts be faithfully perfor med. To provide in the organization that reason (hall prescribe laws, is of little avail, it passions are left to cofltroul them. Indentions without refpedl —laws violated with impunity, are to a republic the symptoms and the feeds of death. No tranf grefiion is too fnsall, nor any tranfgrelTor too great for animadversion. Happy for our laws they are not written in blood, that we should blush to read, or hesitate to execute them. They breath (•tie spirit of a parent —and tfxpefl the benefits of correflion, not from severity, but from certainty. Reformation is nev er loft fight of, tiil depravity becomes, or i 9 prefu ined to be incorrigible. Imposed as redraints, here are, not by the jealousy of usurpation, nor the ca pricioufnefs of infenlibility ; but as aids to vir tue and guards to rights, they have a high claim to be rendered efficient. Nor i 9 this claim more heightened by the purity of their source, and the mildness of their genius, than by the magnitude of the interells they em brace. The national laws are the national ligatures and vehicles of life. Though they pervade a coun try, as divti lified in habits, as it is vail in extent, yet they give to the whole, harmony of intereft,End unity of design. They are the means by which it pleases heavsn to make of weak and. discordant parts, one great people ; and to bellow upon them unexumpled prosperity. And so long as Amcri •ca (hall continue to have one will, organically ex pressed and inforced, mud (he continue to rife in op ulence and refpeft. Let then the man or combi nation of men, who, from whatever motives, oppose partial to general will, and would disjoint their country to the sport of fortune/ feel their impo tence and error. Aismani(hed by the fate of republics, which have gone before us, we should profit by their mis takes. Impetuosity in legislation, and instability in execution, are therockson which they ptriflied.— Againd the former, indeed, we hold a feeurity which they were ignorant of, by a representation indead of the aggregate, and by a diliribution of the legifiative power, to maturing and balancing bo dies, lnftead of the fubje&ion of it to momentary impulse, and the predominance of fa&ion. Yet from the danger of inexecution, we are not exempt. Strength of virtue, is not alone fufficient ; there mud bt itrength of arm, or the experiment is hope lefsi Numetous are the vices, and as obstinate the prejudices, and as daring as restless is the ambition, which perpetually hazard the national peace. And they certainly require that to the authority vetted in the executive department, there be added liberal confidence, and the urceafing co-operation of all good citizens for its support. Let there then be vigilance—condant vigilance and fidelity for the ex ecution of laws—of laws made by all, and having for their object, the good of all. So let us rear an em pire sacred to the rights of man j and commend a government of reason to the nations of the earth. But, gentlemen, I will not detain you longer from yonr duty. You may expect in the perfsr-. mmceof it, such afiidance from Mr. Attorney,and a!fo from the court as you may have occasion for, and it (hall be proper for them refpedlively to give. \ ou will please to retire. In the southern circuit of the United States, held at Savannah, in and sos the didridl of Georgia —ApnT term, 1796. Savannah, (late of Georgia. We, the grand jury of the circuit court, for this didridl, avail ourselves of this opportunity ofexpref ling our approbation of the lad legiflaiure, which fat at Louisville, for the passing of an aft rendering null and void the a& usurped and passed bvthe I<~ giflattire, on the 7th of January, 1795, disposing of the weftem territory of v this date,removing thereby the greatest grievance this country labored under, and that they deserve the thanks of every difinter eded citizen. Every grand jury throughout this date, have complained of that ulurped aft, which was intended to deprive the citizens and their poderity, not only unconftitutionatty but by bribery and corruption of dmafcertained millions of acr„ to enrich a set of ■ pecuiators, the ped of society, who have long in cited this date, and to whom all the difordcr and confufion in our pnblic affairs mayjudly be attribu te return our fince.e thanks to the honorable Abraham Baldwin, a represent itive from this in the Congress of the United States, aad highly approve the manner in which be repelled the daring attempt of a senator from this ((ateto interrupt that genileman in the faijhful discharge of his duty, as a representative of the people. We are not at a, t#r the real of that unwarrantable attack, whatever preffncps may have been offered to th public, nut! hope, that (hould any attenjpt of ths kind be again made, the object will be treated witii equal contempt ani dilrefpeft. We present as a grievance, that thecompenfj tion allowed to jurors attending court from ?,. diltance, is not adequate to their oeceflary expei ces; we admit that the sum allowed, may be fug. cierit in the northern (tales ; but rhe high prj,.,. provisions, and labor in Georgia, is such, that die money received by the Juror will not pay half hij maintenance. We ail'o recommend, tbat'the jr l?r ° dial be authorized immediately on the difchame of the jury to pay whatever furu may be allowed. "We are happy to inforni the court, >hat ao criminal I H . linefs or information, have com? before us.

ABRAHAMS, WILLIAM LEWDEN. STATE PAPER. Mejfage of the Eneculive directory of France rtfpi c~l ■ ing the emijjton of " Mandats Tcrritena.ix," Landed Alignments. Citizens Legiflato's, Your Resolution of the 2cth of t!>is month re. lative to the creation of " Terriiorial Mandats" payable to the bearer,, is one of these grand an 1 happy measures wlwah at the mod critical xras of the Revohrtioir, t o"Tßs"welf3Tt-rsr" the Republic. But it would he fatal if you did not halter)to make an addition which is inrfifpenh. ble, by giving to those Manrlats a compulsive t«. rency. Without ftiOh a law, the new paper and the old would both fall into equal depreciation. The stock-jobbers would seize upon both, they would plunder the nation of its demesnes, and the government of its refourccs. (Certainly when paper money has but a reiuote, a doubtful or inefficient fecuiity, nothing short of defpotiftn can force its currency. Such would be the cafe if it was intended to recal the affignats to their nominal value, before their mass was reduced to the amount of tho national property at the dis posal of government. But it would be a weak abandonment of the rights of the people, to leave to malignity and avarice so fix the value of a man dat, which can be immediately converted into real property, at the-choice of the bearer, amongst the belt possessions of the Republic. The citizens may be deceived as to their real in;erelts„bv the ctud manoeuvres of flock-jobbing. They have been de ceived, and will be so dill, unless their Reprcfcnta tives (orefee and warn them of the''danger. Have you not been compelled to pronounce cer tail penalties againlt thafe who refuted the Repub lican money, tho' it was evidently of more value than that which bore the Royal Itamp ?—Why (hould you hesitate to tak t'-e fame part agaisli: those who may wilh to depreciate a paper, which has more need of confidence, as it is not civifibii into small portions, and therefore less liable to or dinary tranfa&ions? If you dp not take this ttep, this paper must fall, and with its own, will infalli bly cause the ruin of the affignats. It is in your on the contrary, to raise th* one thro' the other, and to breathe thus new life thro' all ■tlie ramifications of the body politic, ro bult in itfdf, but weakened and dried up through the want of circulation: There are those", however, who seem to'defcry in this paper the annihilatipn of the nffignats. This is an error to which (lock jobbers will labor to give credit, as wishing to monopolize this representative sign, and to poflefs themselves of the public fortune. But it is evident that, on the contrary, (lock job bing will find its death in the cempulfive circula tion of this paper, and that in 24. hours the go vern merit will trip'e the value of ~the Miignats. The aflignat is now at the three hundredth pare of its nominal value. When the mandats (hall be par with the money, the affignats are to be exchang ed at every ofS ?e in the Repnblic for the hundredth part of their nominal rate. Thus is their value tripled in a word. The affignats thus exchanged,, are to be burned, Until there (hall be no more than three milliards in circulation. The circulation will then be brought back to its usual course, and the paper to its natural proportion to the land whict* it represents.—The mnndat being on a par with money, and the relation of the affignats with the former being prescribed by the laws, (lock-jobbing can no longer maintain its ground. It dies ; and France is delivered from a scourge* more horrible than all the inflidtions of her combined enemies! This proportion of one to an hundred between the Mandat and.the Affignat, appears to be mod (uitableyfor the present. It accords with the me?- fures which have been taken for railing the forced loan. It leaves to the nation the resources which may benrceflary for its occasions, until the system of contribution (hall be fettled, and the receiptscol lefted regularly. In pioportion as the circulating mass of Affignats (hall be diminished by burning those which are exchanged, the relative value of 10
