CRMBER 1. The report of the state of the King yesterday was, tliat there Was no alteration. The Os/ eite of this evening contains further dispatches from Celonel flreen, employed on a pat! icu! ar service in Catalonia confirming the accounts cf the successes obtained over tiie enriuv, by the patriot- of that proving.— Col. Green mentions a proclamation having been issued by Oeu. Lacy, '' in con - • sequence of many cm. c ipts havlna entered from France into Catalonia, requesting to be admitted " to join the Spanish colours, to avoid being forced into their own armies against Russia." * Tbe success of General Mina's movement into Arragnn, where 1100 men, and 60 cavalry of the enemv, were either killed, wounded, or token, is likewise confirmed, by the General's official details, which appear in the Gazette, ' A I. etter from Capt. Eyre, of the Magnificent., (" hois employed in aid of the Valene an patriots,) dated off Valencia, 27th Oct, states the defeat of Gen. Blake by SuChet. and the subsequent fall of the fortress of Murviedro, of which we have previously had the French account. The Captain briefly states the result in the following terms:—" A reinforcementof 1000 men having arrived from the Army of Murcia, Gen. Blake resolved to attack the enemy, and oblige liirn, if possible, to raise the siege of Murviedro. The attack was uiade on the 25th, and I am sorry to say has entirely failed, the Spanish army being obliged to retreat to Valencia, with the loss, by tlieir ow n aecoujit, of 8000 men and 8 or 9 pieces of cannon-— Woik « have been for some time erecting, at all the most vulnerable parts of Valencia ; and it is generally understood, that it is to be defended as long as possible— General Blake, with bis whole army, are now within the walls." ' The Spanish Commander at the Castle and Garrison of Otopesa, with his '• remaining force, were safely brought nwav ill ' be boats of the Magnificent, under Lieuts. Asiley and llyalt, of that ship. — Gazette. The Spanish papers state that Sucliet had summoned Valencia, but that his summons was indignantly returned by order of General lilake, without any reply. It is very eurrentlv reported, that there has been several; skirmishes between Blake's aimv and the rneinv in the neigh-. ' bonthood o'f Valencia, and that in one severe affair, in which the French were repulsed, the Spanish General lost an arm, A private letter fiom Gibraltar, dated on the 18th ult. states, in allusion to Sicily—" Ily the last accounts from Sicily, the Court was in the greatest agitation, expecting that hostilities would commerce on theariival of Lord William Bentinck : it was known thai the majority of the Sicilian army would join the Biitish, and it was generally believed mat the Roval Family would endeavour to make their escape to Sardinia." By a letter from Oporto, dated the 12th ultimo, it appear* to have been supposed there, that, lord Wellington would probebly make a movement towards Tras os Moutes.— Some foiwaid movement of the main British force seems necessary, or the enemy would reinforce from their central army all the points that require succour, and would afterwards eliuse their own time for re- commencing offensive operations on the side of Portugal. It appears that Cadiz was much more healthy during the month of October last, than in the same month of the preceding year. In October, 1810, there were 874 deaths j and in last October there were only 292. Matmont has, in General Orders, changed the name of the Army of Portugal to that of tlie Central Army. Yesterday arrived Havsnnnh Gazettes,: containing accounts from Mexico. Several months ago it was stated, that the Viceioy Venegas had, extinguished the spirit of insurrection in that pail of of America. We find, however, from the> e papers, that a very enten- ne conspiracy for subveiting his authority, and seizing his person, has since been formed, which he has had the good fortune to discover and defeat. Recent letters from Pari" state, that Joseph Bonaparte is immediately to be tecalled from his miserable throne in Spain, in older to be metamorphosed into a King of Poland; and that it is well understood to be the intention of Napoleon, whenever he has gained a sufficient tyrannical power over the Peninsula, to paitition it in Principalities amongst bis most successful Generals, so as effectually to destroy ati empire, the sovereignty of w hich he cann t command. It is said that Mural has been denounced by Bonaparte for disaffection to his Government, di.- obedience of orders, and neglect of duty, in not carrying into execution the plans and views of the French Tyrant; and that Murat, aware of this, has taken up a menacing position, and means to bid defiance to any attempt of removing him, provided he finds that his motley army will support him. We understand that his Majesty's Ministers have directed that all Swedish property which had been detained in this kingdom shall be restored The affair ot the Little Belt and President having brenonce more brought before the public through the medium of Mr. Maddistm's Message to Congress, ( for a7i/ iA see last pnge) Government have published certain parts of the evidence of the officers of the l ittle Belt, taker, in America, by which it most clearly and indubitably appears that the Americans were the aggressors. Two seamen, who weie ou board the President ni the time ( one an Ameiican and the other an Englishman,) distinctly swear that the first gun was fired from that ship : they add , however, that it. went off by accident. It would be a waste of room to repeat any part of the evidence— the question has long been set at rest, at least on this side ot the Atlantic, By the most recent accounts, it appears that flour and bread are very nearly as dear in Paris as in London ; and throughout France as throughout England. We understand, that an order was yesterday rend in the Admiralty Court, for the release of all Swedish property de. tained h'- re. The dignified terms ' n which a certain young Lady cfgreat fortune rejected the overtures of her Royal wooer, are the theme of universal commendation and piaise in the circles of fashion. . , , It » " W appears after a correct examination, that the deficiency if Mr. Hunt, late Treasurer of the Board of Ordnance, amounts to .£ 91,000. It is stated in a Dublin paper, that on the late nomination of Dr. Mail to the Bishopric of Dromote, he became liable tothe sum of <£ 5,000 for the Episcopal Palace at Dromore, of which habitation lie never took possession, nor ever leceived a farthing of the revenue ot the diocese, having been been only 10 days a Prelate M" Earthquake. t ippears by the following communications tllat the Earthquake mentioned in our last, was very extensively felt along the Hampshire and Sussex coasts, on Saturday morning last. Kyde, iVos. SO.— This morning; about two o'clock, a smart shock of an Earthquake was felt iu this town and neighbour hood. Many ot the In uses and the furniture were greatly agitated for about a minute; those who happened to be awaked at the time, v.- erc much alarmed at such an unusual occurrence. Chichestn, Nat). 30.— The inhabit ants of this town were this morning much alarmed, about three o'clock, by an unusual noise, which continued formany seconds, somewhat similar to the rolling of thunder, and closed w ith a tieinendous crash, which can onlv be compared to some dieadful explosion.— Its eifects were the same at Midhurst, Petworth, Arundel, aiul all the adjoining places, but it is considered to have'been most severely felt along the coa- t, Bosham, Siddlesliam, Selsea, Pagam, and Bognor; at the la ter place, much alarm was created ; the consternation of the different villages was very great. postscript LONDON, Monday Might, December 9, 1811.

For if the great body of the nation be educated in other principles than those of the Es, tablished Church, the natural consequence must be to alio nate the minds of the people from it, or render them indif- ferent to it, which may in succeedinggancrations; provc fatal to the Church and to the Stale itself. It mast, indeed, be admitted in this country of civil and religious liberty, that every man has a right to pursue the plan of education that is best adapted to tliei religion which lie himself professes. Whatever religious tenets, therefore, men of other persuasions may think proper to combine with tire mechanism of the new system, wht'ther tenets peculiar to- themselves,- or tenets of a" more general nature, they are free to use the new system so. combined, without reproach or interruption from the Members of the Establishment.— On the other hand, the Members of the Establishment are not only warranted, hut in duty bound, to preserve that system, as originally practised at Madras, in the form of a Church of England Education. The friends, therefore, of the Establishment throughout the Kingdom, ate earnestly requested to associate and co- operate, ifor the purpose of promoting the Education of the Poor ill the Doctrine and Discipline of the Established Church.— It is hoped that such co- operation will not be wanting, when the object in view is nothing less than the preservation of the National Religion, by ensuring to the gVcat body of the people an Education adapted to its prin- ciples. With a view of promoting such co- operation, and with the intent of laving the foundation of a Society, which shall ex- tend its influence over the whole Kingdom, a number of Persons, friends to the Establishment, at a Meeting holden on the ]'( jth dav of October, 1811, The ARCHBISHOP of CANTERBURY, in the Chair : Resolved, that such a Society be now constituted, and that measures be taken for carrying the same into effect; that for this purpose the Archbishop of Canterbury, for the time being, be President; and, that a Special Committee be appointed, and requested to qieet to- morrow, and on Friday, to eonsider of Rules and Regulations for the Constitution and Government of the Society, and to make their Report to a General Meeting which is to be holden oil Monday next.

FROM THE LONDON GAZETTE. BOWSIKU- STIIEEI, DECEMBER 2. The inclosed extract has been received from Colonel Green, employed on a particular service in Catalonia, dated Head- Quarters, Caiaf, October 9, 1811. I am happy in having the honour to inform your lordship, that there, now appears to be a very increased degree ot activity and much success in the re- armamcnt of this Prin-! n/. r » ntiinfr * Prv fast : nearly 600 The cipality The army is increasing very fast ; nearly 6_ 00 deserters hare presented themselves in five days battalions of reserve, which are composed of married men and others which are exempted from service in the army, nre becoming disciplined and numerous; and the small patriotic parlies are daily intercepting the little detach- ments of the enemy, evincing remarkable instances of valour, and proving a severe check to the communications of the enemy, which they themselves complain of in desponding terms. On the 4th instant, General Lacy put himself at the head of 2000 infantry and 5( io cavalry, ana in the night surprised the town of Ignalada, he leading the cavalry, and upon being challenged by the centin'el, " Qui vive," answered " France," and rushed upon the advanced post, which he destroyed, and galloped into the town, vrhere he killed upwards of 150 men, made a few prisoners and look some stores and the equipage of the General and the officers, the former being obliged to escape in his shirt to the Capuchin Convent, which had been previously fortified, and where the principal part of the troops were quartered, but which requiring cannon to reduce, General Lacy left till be could receive guns from Cardona, and retired to this town, meditating an expedition upon Cervera. On the 7th instant, a small force was detached, under the orders of Baron Erroles, to intercept a convoy near Iorba, which was done with complete success, the Baron taking the whole. consistingof400 mules, laden with corn, 500 goats, and otlirr necessary articles of the Com- missariat, completely routing the 3( H) men composing the escort, and dispersing 300 more and 50 horse, which had moved rapidly from Igualada to support the former. I liave the satisfaction also to slate to your lordship, that since General Suehet has left the Lower Catalonia, the Pal lidas Patriotieas and Somatenes have killed and wound- ed, even by the French account, upwards of 1500. The proportion the enemy has lost in Upper Catalonia, since the fall of F igueras, has not been so considerable ; hut what contributes very much in favour of the Principality at this moment is, the sickness which prevails in the army of Macdonald, who has upwards of 3000 sick from tertian fevers. Calaf, 10M October, 1811. P. S. I have the satisfaction to inform your lordship, that I have just received intelligence of the enemy's having evacuated Igualada; and also a letter from Baron Erroles, stating that he is now blockading a detachment of the French which are fortified in the College of Cervera, the capture of which will give into the bauds of the Catalans a large depot of corn, will destroy all communication between Barcelona and Lerida, and open the most important roads to the Spaniards; tending again to restrict the enemy to tht' Editor of the Salopian Journal. SIR, Without intending to. reflect on the motives of those who hav^ supported the BIUI. E SOCIETY in your town, I still think there is such important matter in the annexed letter, that I will be£ you to insert it in your respectable paper: trusting that it will at least have the tendency to procure liberal support from the mem- bers of the established Church to their own ' excellent Society of above an hundred years standing, " The Society for promoting Christian Knowledge," of which I have the honour trt sign rtiysdf A SUBSCRIBING MEMBER. entirely to the limits of his garrisons, which if not reiii forced, will be in a precarious slate, as Suchet has nearly drained those of Lower Catalonia, to increase his force operating in the kingdom of Valencia. The following Extract has been received at Lord Liverpool's Office, from Lord Wellington, dated Fre- nada, Nov. 13. By the accounts which I have received from Cadiz, of the sgth October it appears that the enemy had retiied from Algesiras and St. Roque on the night of the 21st of October. General Ballasteros had pursued their rear- guard, against which he had some success. Colonel Sketritt conducted with great judgment the detachment of British troops, of which he bad the command at Tarifa, and his movements towards the enemy's communications must have shewn them the impracticability of remaining in the position which they had taken. It appears that the cofntry 011 both banks of the Tagus, as far up as Aranjuez, has been made over by the Emperor to Marshal Marmont for the support of the Army of Portugal. This arrangement has 1 educed Joseph Bonaparte to the greatest distress, as the produce of that country was all that he had to depend upon, and he was actually subsisting upon the money produced by the retail sale of the grain forcibly levied from the people This grain having been thus levied and sold by Joseph, has been seized again by Marmont's orders, and taken from the people who had purchased it from Joseph's magazines; who have been informed that the king had 110 right to sell it. ADMIRALTY- OFFICE, DECEMBER 2. Exlract of a Letter from the Hon. Adm. Legge to J. W. Croker, Esq. dated Revenge, in Cadiz Bay, Nov. II. The British forces nnder Colonel Skerritt still continue at or near Tarifa General Ballasteros, on the 5th instant, surprised a corps of the enemy under General Scmele* between Bornos and Xeres, taking upwards of 100 prisoners, with all their baggage and mules, and leaving many dead on the field of battle. WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER i. ' Thr King •— The appetite of his Majesty is saiil to be uni- formly good. His food is of that sort which he has habitually preferred, simple and plain ; generally cold chicken, mutton, or veal, with sallad. His digestion, and all his physical functions are performed with ease and regularity : nor does the influence of his mental malady now in the least affect the soundness of his bodily health. A letter from Lisbon datrd Nov. 9, says, " You are by this time well informed of the brilliant ateliievement of Gen. Hill- He has row returned to Portalegre, and Lord Wellington has advanced his head. quarters to Fuente de Guinaldo, and re • eives daily reinforcements. The weather is getting cold, ai d the troops are fast recovering. Of late a great many deserters, chiefly German*, have come over to us, who slate, that most of them would desert were it not for fear of falling into the hands of the Guerillas, who give thein no quarter, and who are in continual motion all over the country. General Re- naud, Governor of Ciudad Rodrigo, has been treated with the greatest respect. On his passing through our lines he was astonished at their great strength. aud positively declared; that it is not in the power of any French General to take them with- out a saciifice of an immense quantity of men, which at the present moment the French cannot spare. The French are heartily sick of the war in Spain, aud do not expect to subdue the country." Ballasteros has obtained another advantage over pait of the French army that lately retreated from San Roque, the rear of w hich he defeated at Zemines. On the St li instant, he defeated a force of 2000 under Gen. Semele between Xerez and Homes. The number of troops, who crossrd the Guadiana with Gi- raid after the action with Gen. Hill, is statedi n the Lisbon pupeis at between 200 and 300, while private letters say, that according to the leports of deserters, only 150 of these joined the army of Marmont with him. Thus has been dis- posed of a body of 3100 men, composed, according to General Renand's account, of some 11 the best tioops in the French artr. y. A General Dombrowsky, a Pole, who had setved with the French in neatly all their great battles, is reported to have been killed in the action. — The Spaniards behaved exceedingly well, and even contrived to precede the British in the attack. The official account cf their General, Giron, contains an addi- tional proof of the cordiality prevailing between the Comman- ders ol the two armies. The accounts received from the Continent since our last, by the way of Anholt and Heligoland, shew that the politics ol the North are still very unsettled. The letters from Stockholm i state that it was Bernadotte who dictated the answ er to Bona- ' parte, in refusal of the latlei's demand of 8000 Swedish troops ! for the wai in Spain. This proceeding, it is said, has add< d considerably totbe popularity of Bernadotte in Sweden. Tlie great number of French trocps assembled on the frontiers of pomeiania, has created alarm both at Stockholm and Benin ; and it is reported thai General Blucher has been sent to Prus- sian Pomerania, to watch the motions of the French force. Saint Andrew's Day.— The Governors of the Scottish Hos pilal, aud a uunie rous party of friends to the institution, dined together on Saturday, at the Old London Tavern, his Royal Highness the. Duke of Kent iri the chair. After dinner, " The King," " the Prince Regent," " the Queen," and " Royal Family," " the Duke of York and the Army, and " t,, e Duke of Clarence and the Navy," were given with three times three,—" God save the King," " the Prince and Old England for ever," and " Tak your auld cloke about ye,' and ' Nelson," were sung w ith great effect by Messrs. Taylor, Sinclair, and Shaw.— When the Treasurer brought up his report, he described the objects which it was the aim of the Scots Corporation to relieve, and stated £ 960 to have been expended in the last year. He then proceeded to read a list uf new donations, to which he expected considerable additions would yet be made. When the Duke ot Kent took his leave, he announced the Duke of Clarence as President at the spring meeting. At that, il it pleased God to spare his life so long, he intended to be present also, and it « aB his hope, th. rt on that day, the donations would be as satisfactorily great as the report, which had just been read. AN ADDRESS To the members of the Senate of the University of Cambridge; occasioned by'the proposal to introduce in this Place an Auxiliary Bible Society. We have at present two very extensive Bible Societies; the one founded in 1699, the other in 1804. Both of our Archbishops and all Our Bishops ( with the Prince Regent at the head) are members of the former: neither of the two Archbishops, and only a small proportion of the Bishops, are members of the latter. The members of the former, now amounting to about seven thousand, are exclu sivelv Churchmen, no one being admitted to it withoutt testimony of his attachment to the Constitution, as well in Church as in State. The members of the latter are much more numerous, than those of the former; but they consist of Chuichmcn and Dissenters indiscriminately. The two Societies agree iu the very laudable object of distributing Bibles both at home and abroad, though Ihe number of Bibles distributed by the latter, especially abroad, greatly exceeds the number distributed by the former. For not only aie the funds of the latter much superior to those of the former, but those funds are employed in the distribution of Bibles only, whereas the funds of the former are employed partly on Bibles, partly on Prayer Books, and partly on Religious Tracts, which are in unison with the doctrine aud discipline of the Established Church. From this short statement it appears, that the former, or the ancient Society, i.~ not only a Bible Society, but likewise ( what the other is not) a Church. of- England Society. Willi the former it is an invariable rule, in promoting Christian Knowledge, to keep iu view the Doctrines, which the mem- bers of the Society believe aud maintain. Especially where the Church of England is established, they consider it as their duty to promote Christianity, not under any form, but under that particular form, which, above every other they are pledged to suppoit, which alone is the tenure of ecclesiastical and even of civil preferment. In conformity with that rule, the Society for promoting Christian Knowledge ( the ancient Bible Society) distributes, in its home circulation, as well the Liturgy as the Bible: f_. r though in the spirit of true Protestantism it acknowledges the Bible as the only Jountuin of religious truth, yet, it know s from tiie experience of all ages, that the waters of that fountain will be clear or turbid, according to the channel into which they are drawn. And as the members of the Society believe ( though without reproach to those whose belief is different) that the doctrines of the Liturgy are correct y derived fidnr the Bible, they consider it as their indispensable duty, to unite the one with the other. Indeed uniformity cf doctiine can never be produced without an adherence to Ibis rule: for every Christian party either finds., or supposes that it finds, its peculiar doctrines in the Bible. But this salutary rule, so necessary to promote uni- formity, so desirable therefore by every true Churchman, cannot be observed by the modern Bible Society : for such a rule would not only be contrary to its present avowed object, bnt absolutely inadmissible from the very constitution of the Society. For it not only consists of Dissenters as well as of Churchmen: but an equalityof power and interest, between I be two parties is the avowed basis, on which this modern Society is built. It is true, that tl. ote members of it, who are attached to the- Church, may so far eorrcct the evil, that when they have obtained tiibles for distribution from this Society, they may of themselves add Prayer- Books, and Religious Tracts in unison with the established faith, and that this correction will be rendered easy, if ( as frequently happens) they are mem- bers also of the other Society. But to say nothing of the question, whether it is not more adviseable for Churchmen to adhere wholly to a Society, u hicb, in proportion as its numbers increase, will supply their wants without the necessity of cor « reclion, the dissenting members have the same resource with their brethren of the establiihAient, it being equally in their power to distribute Bibles in company with such Religions Tracts, as favour their own opinions, and are always at hand, whenever they are wanted. The principle of equality there- fore, on which the modern Bible Society is formed, and which places Christians of every denomination on the same level, is upon the whole preserved: and in this constitutional equality there is evident danger, lhat the preeminence of the established religion should be gradually forgotten, aud finally lost. It is far from my intention to be unfriendly or disrespectful toward those whose religious ' opinions are different from my own. Though sincerely attached to the Established Church, and desirous of promoting its welfare by all fair and honour- able means', I fully recogn& e the natural, and in this country, legal right of private judgement in matters of religion ; and I should be ever teady both to deplore and to oppose every iffort to abridge the freedom of religious opinion, or religious worship, which is exercised in this country by Dissenters of every description. But though I respcct religious opinions in general, however different fiom my own, and respect them became they are religious opinions, yet I deeply lament that such diversity exists, not only because thfc greater the diversity the more abundant is the error, but because re- ftgirtto'dlSsentibn, in'conseqncnce of our mixed constitution; is closelv connected with political dissension. Religious dis- sension therefore in ibis country becomes a political evil; and as such should not be encouragtd, though^ Dissenters of every description should for conscience sake be tolerated. This i9 the. true line of distinction, which every Churchman shuuld invariably observe; aud I am convinced that every candid Dissenter, so far ' rom resenting this open and honest avowal, will do justice to the purity of my intentions. Indeed every man, who loves his country, » ill be ready to adopt a principle, which is calculated to promote political good, without pro- ducing religious evil, Let us apply this principle to the modern Bible Society, as far as relates to the cbnductof Churchmen : for nothing which is here said is intended as a restraint on the conduct of those, who dissent from the Established Church. They have full liberty to distribute. Bibles, either alone, or accompanied with such Religious Tracts, as they may think proper: aud, if a 8ociety consisting solely of Dissenters had been formed for this purpose the members of the Estnblishmeut would have hail no right either toiuterfere, or even to complain of it. Such a Society would have been perfectly consistent wit h those prin- ciples'^ toleialion, which aie happily established in these realms. But il is certainly a question for consideration among Churchmen, whether it is prudent to augment the power of such a Society, bv throwing into its scale the weight of the Establishment. If Cburt bmen give the whole of their influence to the ancient Bible Society, they retain Ihe strength of ihe Established Church within its own channel, aud thus contribute to preserve it. If they divide their influence, and still more, if they give it wholly to the modem Bible Society, they ( I, veil the strength of the Establishment into a foreign channel, where the current may at least be turned against them. In supporting the ancient BibleSociety, they have ample security, that they ate supporting at the same time the Esta- blished Church: but iu supporting the modern Itible Society, they have no such security, either ill its constitution, or in the general friendship of its members. It is true, that the pro- fessed object of the modem Bible Society is to distribute Bibles without note or comment, and, in this Country, according to the authorised version. But were it certain, that, as the power of this Society increases, the present avowed object would still be retained, we can have no guarantee that other objects, inimical to the Church, will not in time be associated with the mam object. The experience of only seven years, under cir- cumstances where circumspection has been peculiarly neces- sary, is a poor ground of consolation. The Dissenters, how- ever well n Sec ted in other respects, cannot be well affected to the Church, or they would nut be Dissenters from it. Their interests in respect to religion are different from ours, and • herefore must lead them udfferer. t any .- and I hough we know from experience, that they can combine for the purpose of opposing the Church, it would be contrary both to experience, and to the common principles of human action to expect their co- operation, if the object in view was the interest of the Church. If we apply then the piinciple above- mentioned, that. Churchmen should tolerate, but not encourage Disst nters, wc shall find in it a strong argument against the promotion ot the modem Bible Society. For, independently of the reason above- stated, that Churchmen should unite the Liturgy with the Bible, and thus prevent its misapplication to other doc- trines, the very constitution of the modern Bible Society gives an importance to the dissenting interest, which otherwise it Would never have obtained, and consequently brings a fresh ac- cession of danger to ibe Established Church. That Churchmen, by their association with Dissenters in this modemBible Socie- the litter, is loo obvious to requite illustration. And that this increase of influence may hereafter be applied in 4 manner not contemplated by those, who now inadvertently promote it, is likewise a position which cannot be controverted. But by increasing the influence of the ancient Bible Society, we ne- cessarily increase the influence of the Established Chwch : for the ancient Bible Society is one of its fi. mest bulwarks. On the one hand, therefore, our encouragement of the ancient Society must contribute to the welfare of the Esta- blished (. luircb, while, on the other hand, our encourage- ment of the modern Society not only contributes nothing to it in preference to other churches, but may contribute even to its dissolution. Now if we injure, or even neglect to support, our own Church, we shall hardly make compensation by our distribution of Bibles in foreign parts. If our own Church, as we have reason to believe, professes Christianity in its purest form, the downfall of such a Church would be an iire- parable loss, not to this nation only, but to the whole world. Under these circumstances, I respectfully submit theques- tion to the consideration of this University, which of the two Bible Societies is most, entitled to encouragement on the part of a Body, whose peculiar duty ( a duty so nobly displayed on a late occasion) is the support of the Established Church. HERBERT MARSH, Margaret Professor of Divinity. Cambridge, Nov. 25, 1811. AMERICA. PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE TO CONGRESS. Washington City, Tuesday, Sth Nori. 1811. The President of the United States this day communicated bv Mr. Edward Coles, his private Secretary, the following Message to Congress:— Fellow Citizens of the Senate and of the House of Representatives. Iu calling you together sooner than a separation from your homes would otherwise have been required, I yield to consi- derations drawn from the posture of our Foreign Affairs ; and in fixing the present, for the time of your meeting, regard wis had to the probability of further derelopements to the policy of the belligerent powers towards this cuuntry, which might the more unite to the national councils, in the measures to be putsued. At the close of the last session of Congress, it was hoped that the successive confirmation of the extinction of the French Decrees, so far as violated our neutral commerce, would have induced the Government of Great Britain to re- peal its Orders in Council, and thereby authorise a removal of the existing obstructions lo ber commetco with the United Slates. Instead of this reasonable step towards satisfaction and friendship between the two nations, the Orders were, at a moment when least to have been expected, put into more ri- gorous execution ; and it was communicated thro' the British Envoy, just arrived, that whilst the revocation of the Edicts of France, as officially made known to the British Government, was denied to have taken place, it was an iudispensible con- dition uf the repeal of the Biitish Orders, that commerce should be restored to a footing, that would admit the pro- ductions and manufactures of Great Britain, when owned by neutrals-, into markets shut against them by hor enemy ; the United Slates beirig given to understand, that in the mean time, a continuance of their Non- impcrtation Act, would lead to measures of retaliation. At a later date, it has indeed appeared, that a communi- cation to the British Government of fresh evidence of the repeal of the French Decrees against our neutral trade, was followed by an intimation, that it had been transmitted to the British Plenipotentiary here, in order that it might receive full consideration in the depending discussion. The comma* nication appears not to have been received: but the trans- mission of it hither, instead of founding on it an actual repeal of the Orders, or assurances that the repeal would ensue, will not permit us to rely on any effective change in the British Cabinet. To be ready to meet with cordiality satisfactory proofs of such a change, and to proceed, in the mean time, in adopting our measures to ihe views which have been disclosed through that minister, will best consult our whole duty. In the unfriendly spirit of those disputes, indemnity and redress fur other wrongs have continued to be withheld, and our coasts and the mouths of our harbours, have again wit- nessed scenes not less derogatory to the deai est ef out national rights, than vexatious to the regular course of our trade. Among the occurrences produced by the conduct ot British ships of war hovering on our coasts, was an encounter between one of them and an Amei ican frigate commanded by Captain Rodgers, rendered unavoidable on the part of the latter by a fire commenced without cause from the former ; whose commander is therefore alone chargeable with the blood un- fortunately shed in maintaining the honour of the American flag. The proceedings of a Court of Enquiry, requested by Captain Rodgers, are communicated ; together with the cor- respondence relating to the occurrence between the Secretary of State and his Britannic Majesty's Envoy, To these are added, the several correspondence which have passed oil the subject of the British Orders in Council; and lo both the correspondence relating to the Floridas, in which Congress will be made acquainted with the interposition which the Government of Great Britain has thought proper to make against the proceedings of the United State3. The justice and fairness which have been evinced on the part of Ihe Uuited States towards France, both before, and since the revocation of her decrees, authorised an expectation that her Government would have followed up that measure by all such others as were due to our reasonable claims, as well as dictated by its amicable professions. N J proof however is yet given of an intention to repair the other wrrfngs done to the United States; and particularly to restore the great amount of American property seized aud condemned under edicts, which though not affecting our neutral relations, and therefore not entering into question between the United States and other belligerents, were nevertheless founded in such unjust princi- ples, that the reparation ought to have been prompt and ample. In addition to this, and other demands of strict right, on that nation, the United States have much reason to be dis- satisfied with the rigorous and unexpected restrictions to which their trade with the dominions of France has been subjected ; aud which, if not discontinued, will require at least corre- sponding restrictions on importations from France into the United States. On all these subjects our Minister Plenipotentiary, lately sent to Paris, has carried with him tin necessary instructions ; the result of which will be communicated to you, and by as- certaining the ulterior policy of the Fiench Government to- wards the United States, we shall be eraule to regulate that of the United States towards France. Our other foreign relations remain without any unfavorable changes. With Russia they are on the best footing of friend- ship. The ports uf Sweden have afforded proofs of friendly dispositions towards onr commerce, as have the councils of that nation also. And the information front our Special Minister to Denmark shews, that the mission had been attended with valuable effects to our citizens, whose property hail been so extensively violated and endangered by cruizers under the Daiii- h flag. Under the ominous indications which command attention, it became a duty to exert the means commuted to the exe- cutive department, in providing for the geueral secuiity. The woiks of defence on our maritime frontier have accordingly been prosecuted, with an activity leaving little to be added for the completion of the most important ones; and as particu- larly suited for co- operation in emergencies, a portion of the gun* boats have in particular harbours been ordered into use. The ships of war before in commission, with the addition of frigates, have been chiefly employed as a cruizing guard lo the rights of our coast; and such a disposition has been made of our land forces, as was thought to promise the services most appropiiate and important. In this disposition is in- cluded a force, consisting of regulars and militia embodied in the Indian terr itory, aud marched towards our North Western frontier. This measure was made requisite by several mur- ders and depredations committed by Indians, bul more espe- cially by the menacing preparations and aspect of a combi- nation of them on the Wabash, ouder the influence and di- rection of a fanatic of the Shawauese tribe. With these ex- ceptions, the Indian tribes retain their peaceful dispositions towards us, and their usual pursuits. I must now add, that the period is arrived, which claims from the Legislative Guatdians of the national rights a system of more ample provisions for maintaining them. Notwith- standing the scrupulous justice, the protracted moderation, anil the multiplied efforts on the part of the United Slates, to sub- stitute, for the accumulating dangers to the peace of the two countries, all the mutual advantages of re- establishing friend ship and confidence; we have seen that the British Cabinet perseveres not only in withholding a remedy for other wrongs solong and so loudly calling for it; but in the execution, brought home to the threshold of our territory, of measures which, under existing circumstances, have the character as well as the effect of war on our lawful commerce. With this evidence of hostile inflexibility, in trampling upon rights which no independent nation cun relinquish, Congress will Icel the duty of putting the United States into an armour, and an Aiitude demanded by the crisis, aud cor- responding with the national spirit and expectations. I recommend accordingly, that adequate provision be made for filling the ranks and piolonging the enlistments of the re limited term; for the acceptance of volunteer corps, ubose patriotic ardor may court a participation in urgent seivices'; for detachments, as they may be wanted, of other portions of the militia; and for such a preparation of the great body, as will proportion its usefulness to its intrinsic capacities. Nor can the. occasion fail to remind you of the importance ot those militaiy seminaries, which iu every event, will form a Valuable and frugal part of our military establishment. The manufacture of caution and small arms has proceeded with due success, and the stock and resources of all the neces- sary munitions are adequate to emergencies. It will not be expedient, however, for Congress to authorize an enlarge- ment of them. Your attention will of course be drawn to such provisions, on the subject of our naval force, as may be required for the services to which it may be best adapted. I submit to Congress the seasonablenes* also of an authority to augment the stock of such materials as are imperishable in their nature, or may not at once be attainable. In contemplating the scenes which distinguish this mo- mentous epuch, and estimating their claims to our attention, it is impossible to overlook those developing themselves among the great communities which occupy the southern portion of our own hemisphere, and extend into our neighbourhood.— An enlarged philanthropy and an enlightened forecast concur in imposing on the national councils an obligation to take ' a deep interest in their destinies ; to cherish reciprocal senti- inents of good will; to regard the progress of events ; and not to be unprepared for whatever order of things may be ulti- mately established. Under another aspect cf our situation, the early attention of Congress will be due to the expediency of further guards against the invasions aud infractions of our commercial laws. The practice of smuggling, which is odious every where, and particularly criminal iu free governments, where, the laws being made by all for the good of all, a fraud is committed on every individual as well as on the state, attaius its utmost guilt, when it blends, with a pursuit of ignominious gain, a treacherous subserviency in the transgressors to a foreign policy- adverse to that of their own country. It is then that the virtuous indignation of the public should be enabled to manifest itself through the regular animadversions of the most com- petent laws. To secure greater respect to onr mercantile flag, and to the honest interest which it covers ; it is expedient also, that it be made punishable in our citizens, to accept licenses from loreign governments for a trade unlawfully interdicted by them to other American citizens; or to trade under false colours or papers of any sort. A prohibition is equally called for against the acceptance by our citizens, of special licenses, to be used in trade with the United States ; and against the admission into particular ports of the United States, of vessels from foreign countries, au- thoiised to trade with particular ports only. Although other subjects will press more immediately on your deliberations, a portion of them cannot but be well be- stowed, on the just and sound policy of securing our manu- factures, the success they have attained, and are still attain- ing, in some degree, under the impulse of causes not per- manent; and to our navigation, Ihe fair extent of which is at present abridged by the unequal regulations of foreign govern- ments. abstirdity of medical men pronouncing a disease incurable, because,| forsooth, it has baffled their art.

THIS Day is published, iu one large Volume, I2m04 Price 4s 6d sewed, A COMMENTARY ON THE Besides tbe reasonableness of saving onr manufactures frorp sacrifices which a change of circumstances might bring Qit them, the national interest requires, that with respect to such articles at least, as belong to our defence, aud our primary wants, we should not be ieft in unnecessary dependance on external supplies. And whilst foreign guverum^. s adhere to the existing discriminations in their ports against our navi- gation, and an equality or lesser discrimination is enjoyed by their navigation in our ports, the effect cannot be mistaken, because it has been seriously felt by onr shipping interests ; and in proportion as this takes place, the advantages of an independent conveyance of our products to foreign markets, and of a growing body of marines, trained by their occupations for the service of their country in times of danger, must be diminished. The receipts in the treasury, during the year ending on the 13th September last, have exceeded thirteen millions and a half of dollars, and have enabled us to defiay the current ex- penses, including the interest on the public debt, aod to re- imburse more than five millions on the principal, without re- curring to the loan authorised by the act of the last Session — The temiwrary loan obtained in the latter end of the year 1810 has also been reimbursed, and is not included in that amount. The decrease of the revenue, arising from the situation of our commerce, and the extraordinary expenses which have aud may become necessary, must be takm into view, in making commensurate provisions for the ensuing year. And 1 recommend to your consideration the propriety of insuring a sufficiency of annual revenue, at least to defray the ordi- nary expenses of government, anil to pay the interest on the public debt, including that on new loans which may be au- thorized. I cannot close this communication without expressing my deep sense of the crisis in which you are assembled ; my con- fidence in a wise and honorable result to your deliberations, and assurances of the faithful zeal with which my co- operat- ing duties will be discharged ; invoking, at the same time, the blessing of heaven on our beloved country, and on alt means that may be employed in vindicating its rights, and advancing its welfare.

GENTLEMEN, June 29, 1S11.

I**•*•* ******** of PRHRS HEATH, near Whitchurch, being induced, for the Benefit of my Fellow Creatines, to lay my Case before the Public, did authorize Dr. SMITH, of Upton Magna, near Shrewsbury, to publish an Account of the Cute Ireceived by taking Ilia PLOUGH \ f AM's DROPS: and do now voluntarily come forward, and inako the following Statement: — Being at Wellington, in the County of Salop, in July, 1809, where 1 followed mv Employment of a Shoemaker, [ perceived I had contracted the Venereal Disease. I made immediate Application to a Professional Gentleman there, under whose Care 1 continued for a considerable Time, without experiencing any Relief whatever, but, on the con- trary, found myself grow worse and worse, till at length, I was reduced to a melancholy Situation indeed, by the internal and external Use of Mercury. Hopeless of receiving any Benefit, and having both my Constitution anrl Patience nearly worn out, I gave up all Hopes of being cured by the Mer- curial Preparations, which only exhausted my Frame, wit boot, !- - least Degree, abating the Virulence of tne Disorder, t„. . i.: a —:—' ... 1 " - ' • > in the which by this Time was arrived to an alarming Pitch indeed, 1 took the Resolution of returning to my Home, near Whit- church, aud seeking Relief elsewhere. I put myself under the Care of another Gentleman of the Faculty, who gave me some Relief, and as I thought cured me ; but, after soin ® Time, the Disorder broke out with greater Violence than ever, and my Condition nearly reduced me to Despondency. Having no Hopes f. om tbe Faculty, who had entirely failed in their Efforts to eradicate the Disorder, it was now that t found one of Dr. SMITH'S Bills of " Comfort to the Afflicted," and determined on giving it a Trial: I bought a Bottle of Mr. Jones, Printer, Whitchurch. O11 ihe third day of taking it I found wonderful Alteration for the better, and before I had finished the first Bottle, I bad the cheating Prospect before me of being at last cured of this afflicting Disorder, and before I bad finished the third Bottle, I found myself in a Situation far different from what I was when I left Welling- ton; I hud now comfortable Sleep at Night, my Spirit* returned, aud my Health was completely re- established.— Thus, by taking tbe inestimable PLOUGHMAN'S DROPS, was I rescued from the Grave, and a State bordering on Despair.
