| ON GAMING. • r 1 know not one comfort of which gam- ing is productive ; I know not on? misery which it Hath net occasioned. A gamester' by profession is a villain ; he insinuates himself into the bosom of his friends, and plunders from security, what he dc-uairs to acquire by skill. He thinks his abuse oi confidence rewarded, while he remains dis- jniied, and triumph? over the weakness and credulity of others- Colkctad within him- self, from habit he defies the detection of gnlt ; and not having a character to lose, is more desirous of accumulation than of fame. A gamester may be a desperado—a coolly brave man upon all occasions, and under trials he can hardly be ; for, though resent- ment may teach him to defend his person- yet conscience may disarm his sword. To society he is a scourge ; to himself a warn- ing ; for the success that attends him to-day may desert him to morrow ; and when loss shall follow loss, and the measure of his despair be full, he may fly uncalled, as thousands of his profession have done, into the facs of Heaven, whose judg- ments he despised, whose vengeance he provoked, and whose mercy he defied; with guilt upon his head, contrition at his heart, how can he dare to supplicate a power whom he has so greatly injured ? The Almighty presence is not to be insulted by desperati- on.or to be trh'ed with in death ; and he ¦who runs into this enormity, from ruin and despair, is only accumulating horror upon guilt,1 and preparing eternal miseries in a life to come. If this restless infatuation could proceed from an ; other passion opposed to the desire of gain, the victims of a deluded intention might possibly meet with compassion. Did a man wish by the chance of a die, to ac- cumulate, that he he might have it in his rover to serve the indigent, to raise the fal- len, to pour the balm of comfort into sick- ness, and bid the man of sorrow bound with joy—however he might execrate the means, the-intention might be surely justi- fied : but as it proceeds from a source the most corrupt and unfeeling in human nature, as its obvious aim is avarice, a passion that is most universal and sovereignly despised, its practices cannot be inveighed against ¦with tw much force and execration. What doth not a miser endure to substantiate this inhuman and odious appellation ? lie suffers cold and famine, misery and disease, to swell 'he contents of a coffer wllich he dares not open, and by adding to the means, deprives the senses of enjoyment. Look at this wretch at the hour of disso- lution, when he would give (oh ! dreadful Sacrifice) his immortal soul to continue his mortal existence ; when his worship of Mammon is converted to repentance, and even the situation of a beggar, whose misery lie derided, is become a state of envy to him —observe him at this aw-ul and decisive moment, when the pride of wealth is sunk by conscience, and then tell me, ye sense- less accumulators, of what avail are all those treasures, which cannot purchase a mo- ment's ease, much less a bodily redemption r not having been tried, ye know not how ye shall sustain ; but let this maxim, while there may be a time for repentance, de- scend into your hearts—" The lot of the miserable should serve as a warning to the happy ; for he who lias deserted others, may be in time abandoned himself." From the New-Yon': Evening Pout. A SPECK OF WAR; OR, THF. GOOD SENSE OF THE PEOPLE OK THE WESTEHN COUNTRY. " Were armies to be raised," rays the illustrious Jefferson, " whenever a speck of war is vi.-.i' , in our horizon, we should never have been without them. Our resources •would have \ .. -led upon dangers which never happened, instead of being re- served for what is reioly to take plape.', Now, among the various rumors which agi- tate the government and country, the fol- lowing facts are grotty weh ascertained: Tint Burr is about descending the Ohio and Mississippi, with a force able to take New- Orleans -, that New-Orleans is defenceless, and that our little army has been for months past dancing rigadoons with the Spaniards on the Sabine, for purposes which none of us can comprehend. For the present we may safely consider all this as amounting to a " ifitck of •war in our horizon"—andfr6m the message of the same incomparable states- man, we may also infer- that traces are not to he raised siil the speck shall have -ucreas- ed t(5 a cloud ora storm. The message not having pointed out the proper method of treatment for such specks, 1 presume we may indulge our own conjectures upon the subject, provided only we never propose the application of force. i cannot, however, proceed without drop- ping a tear over the untimely discovery made respecting Judge Sebastian, and many oi the most incorruptible patriots of Kentucky. It is the lingular fate of our illustrious de- mocratic ftiends of equality to resist the temptation i f every spirit except the mam- mo;:, of gold. Men who with dauntless front met the utmost rigors of federal per- seeu'ion : Those who in the gloomy times «f Washington and. Adams, braved tbe-reig'.i of terror Bucb men have been overcome by the use of foreign and domestic bribes. Spain & France bavc purchased thost .vhom Adams and Pickeri - Cpttld not terrify. Perhapsno men in the union were more firmly opposed to the tax on whisky and coaches, the British treaty, and all the oppressive and unconstitutional measures of the federal administration, than those republicans of Kentucky. Tile only misfortune is, that all this time lhey were in . pay". Till this discovery, the Kentucky patriots would have been no mere suspected than those who have so succe.- virtuous- ly opposed the vile plan of fortification. But to return to our s/wck alii the proper method of treatment. 1. I ponceive out prjrtcigal reliance is up- on Ktnt$iod sense of the people of thei»:s- Urn country™—t\\ey harp a u view of"the •whole ground" and can best judge what is for their own .good. Indued) it is my own opinion that the great sec&t of govef is to let every thing take its own course.— Boundaries, rebellions, and the renaings of empires are like commerce—they ought not to be shackled by " too much regulation.'' Of the good effects of my system, the city of N York now furnishes an e..ample at the end of two years of democratic sway— our streets, mud, lamps, watch, riots, finan- ces, alms-house, and grants of public pro- perty, are left without " too much regulati- on" to keep themselves in order, with the.rid of the good sense of the lamp contractors, manure contractors, the watchmen, and the hide-binders.* When the mud is a foot d< ep in the streets—when the lamps add to the darkness, i'td the streets are filled with ri- ots and murder, we get along by the aid of our good sense. 1 boldly repeat it, and leave time to determine, leave the western bubble to the native good sense of the Hide-binders of Kentucky, unshackled by too much re- gulation, and they will set all to rights at N. Orleans. 2. It is my opinion that where legal evi- dence against any man cannot be found, there is no remedy, except in the new in- vented legal machinery of our district-judge and attorney. By means of that the pro- cess would be simple. " First catch" col. Burr, Adair, Tyler and Blennerhasset—keep them separate, without meat, drink, or the liberty of speaking to a friend—examine each one as a witness and also as a defend- ant, and compel him, under the pain of in-- slant imprisonment, to answer every questi- on put to him in the former capacity. Sub- mit these depositions to a jury, and a con- viction would Certainly follow,if the defend- ants were guilty. This legal proceeding has the merit of entire originality—nothing is to be found of it in the magna charta, the constitution of the state, or union, nor in any of our statutes. 3. It is a supposable case, however, that Mr. Buir instead of being taken, should take Ne-w-Orlcans, and that the Spanish ar- my on the Sabine, should chassee down to help him. It is evident, however, that New-Orleans is on the verge of our political horizon, and the whole affair, should it so happen, no more than a speck—a mere speck of war—However, if New-Orleans were actually taken it might possibly re- quire, if not the application of force, yet at least, " a steady, perhaps a quickened pace in preparation for the defence of our seaport towns and waters —an early settle- ment of the most exposed and vulnerable parts of our country—a militia so organised that its effective portions can be called to any point of the union—or volunteers in- stead of them."—Such are th« provisions which I cite from the president's last mes- sage. Here some wicked federal wit may possi- bly pretend that preparation for fort if teation would come rather late after Mr. Burr should be actually fortified in New-Orlans, and es- pecially that'the formation of new settle- ments within vulnerable parts of our coun- try might be a slow, though doubtless a ve- ry effectual remedy—A cavil of this kind hardly needs an answer, as it is perfectly plain that these new settlements in vulnerable places would be suffered to increase for se- veral generations till they should become strong enough to expel Mr. Burr's success- ors ; and then that, they would rise at once and do so without any expence to the na- tion. If this, however, should not be tho't satisfactory, my next great expedient is 4. Reason—the only umpire between just nations—Yes ! I would ply Mr. Burr with reason—I say just nations, because Louisiana and the western states would, in the case put, be organized into a separate republic to increase the spread of liberty, and Mr. Burr would be the emperor of it— This new republic would after a few years be as strong as ourselves, which is another reason for reasoning thecase with them. My plan would be to send a minister with a memoir, and head of argument, drawn up on purpose to convince Mr. Burr of the propriety of abandoning his schemes of am- bition—At all events, he would never think of taking the country without repaying our 15 millions and interest. In short, we re- publicans may safely place the defence of N. Orleans against Mr. Burr " in its princi- ples''—in the unoffending civility of the man- riers of the people of that city towards Mr. Burr—-The same defences which we pro- pose to use against attacks from European nations. What I have written goes wholly upon the suppositionthat this speck of war should continue to be no more than a speck, and that too in the horizon. Yet, if while our settlements are forming in vulnerable places for defence, Mr. Burr should establish his government, organize his force, fortify the Mississippi, make incursions across the Al- legany, free the negroes, and confine the in* habitants of the southern states to a string of pine plain on the beach of the Atlantic, it must be acknowledged that the speck would have somewhat the appearance of a cloud, and that too in the zenith instead of the horizon. This is a case which the scope of my plan does not oblige me to provide for.— However I have no objection, while upon the subject, briefly to state what remedies occur to me for the event. 1. Gun boat So. 1 is already on dry land some where in Carolina, ready to oppose Mr. Burr. 2. If Mr. Burr should" render necessary the resort from reason to force," I would send " the smallest force competent." and not exhaust our resources upon dangers which have never happened, instead of be- ing reserved for what is really to take place. 3. If the " smallest force competent," should happen to prove incompetent, my ad- vise is to make peace with Mr. Burr, and pay him a tribute. i. In all possible cases the whole body of republicans should petition Mr. Jefferson to suffer himself to 1-5 re-elected to the presi- dency, as the only possible means of pre- serving the honor, independence, integrity and safety of the United States. * Note—This association tee by mistake coiled High-iiVMfon {tk* name is as hers staled.

Michaud, and no Prussian uniform dare to be wore any longer. A requisition is made on the county of 120 horses, 60 head of cattle, and it is said that a larger demand will be made—it is likewise reported, that Embden and Minden ate in possession of French and Dutch troops. BRUNSWICK, October 30. The French have taken possession of this duchy, as a conquered country. Gen. Matraison is commander of Brunswick.— Quadlinburg is also in po*,ession of the French. ¦ ¦¦¦ Mimmwfcriw— NEW-YOBK, January 16.

On Friday last, the crew of the British ship Croydon, Williams, at anchor in this harbor, mutinied, and the' captain tired uposi them, and wounded two of the seamen, of which, one is said to have since died, in the hospital, of his wounds. The seamen in the harbor manifested, on Saturday, a dispositi- on to be riotu.s, and to commit some outrage upon other Hi hisii vessels in the port ; the Croydon having gone to sea on that morn- ing. In consequence, the governor ordered out a very strong military force to preserve the peace of the city: it gives us pleasure to state, that the troops evinced the most prompt obedience to the governor's orders, and gave the most decisive proof of the ala- crity with which they would do their duty whenever their country shall demand their services.
