A very singular disorder was lately obser

particular manncrlhe physical class of the
National' Institute. A young woman alter a
severe indisposition, accompanied by a tumor
in the region of the liver, raided M bladders
of the size ancl appearance of eggs, only that
the shells 4iad not become hard, but they
were filled with a glutinous liquor, a little,
yellowish in the middle. A report soon pre
Tailed among the people that this young wo
man laid real eggs. M. Bartini, M. Dessa

ders, and were of opinion that they had not

animated. The case, however, continued the

A very industrious mechanic and his wife

constant labour, and that she sold ballads, they
were always in embarrassed circumstances.
The wife-, about a month since, was taken 111,
and being sensible of approaching death, she

concealed a portion of their weekly earnings;
and directing him to a hole in their wretched .

All our differences with the British grv.
vernment are in. a fair way to be aroieaoly
selthtd. But before we indulge in this pros
pect, we must first, know in what manner this :
settlement is to be effected. .Pray Heaven
we are not going, under the wise, virtuous
and independent administration of Mr. Jet
fcrson, again to bring our substantial rights
into question against the arbitrary claimrahd
pretensions of the adherents of 'Mr, Pitt;
or, to have a sccoadedition of Jay's treaty,
framed and established on the insulting prin
ciple of mutual complaints and concessions.
When we can have an adequate indemnity
for the past, and a reasonable seturity for
the 'future, the point is then settled and not
before. If our seamen Have been impressed
and imprisoned: if the property of oifr citi
zens has been arrested and confiscated, by
British adjudications, and our inoffensive
countrymen inhumanly and even wantonly'
-murdered in our own waters; let the former
be released, our property be restored, and
the murderers punished. This is the only
settlement which ought now to be made.
What is fact to-day, may not be law to-morrow.
Anew code of maratime regulations
may be prescribed by the great continental
powers of Europe, to which tWlkititJi go
vernment may be compelled to submit, and
it would have a very unpleasant aspect if we
in America, the authors and creators of all
the recent changes in the world, should be
come a solitary dissentient from a salutary
innovation. Besides, what is law for Eng
land, .must be law for Spain, France, Hol
land and Italy. It is absurd in the nature of
things, to conceive that we ar to carry on
our trade with certain nations by the modern,
and with their enemy by the ancient law.
That the doctrine of the old school is to fa
vor England, and the doctrine of the new to
ruin I' ranee. Justice to be impartial must
be equal in its dispensation ; and we will not
yet believe that the present administration
will adopt any other policy iij our foreign re
lations. , BjstiM Chronklu

We learn from a gentleman who arrived
in this city a day or two ago from St. Domin
go, that at the time of hU departure there
were ve.ry general movements among the
subjects of the black tuvperor Dessalincs.
What the actual cause of this w as he did r.ot
vndtrstseiid, but it was said that some advi
ces had keen received by nay of Jamaica,
that tauglrt the blacks to expect a speedy at.
tack. The conse-nucnccs of these mtvinc
were, that DessaVines was putting the black
army into an active organization for war; nil
the money, valuable property und fcoods,
were removed to the mountaiHous com. try
in the interior, and all the white inhabitants
were ordered to remove from the sea coast.
During the recent celebration of some
fete, a Trench family had made its escape
liotu.the Cape, but being soon alter iuied
by gen. Chr'utophc, h; attributed the circum
stnnce tn thecminivance or some Americans ;
in consequence, ChiUtophe ordeud the
commanders and crews of all the American
vcsbtls at the Lape tube seized and put in
close confinement, thr:a:cning i jj.t 1r
hatt; them all. Ujwn an invest igatiun, how
ever, it ppeared that ih Aintiicaris had
nut aided the escape id the f'lj-iiim, n)
had, in fact, succeeded in making Uie Trench
lines at the lily of St. Domingo. ' ,c fr.
im-ricans tocrc then released.
The degr idation, to h'u h the Americans
trading to the indigent parts hic rvducsd, is
low and humiliiliii ; as auy thijig to be fviiiMl
in the annujs of the Dutch at Jpaii." Such
is the opinion of the Amciicimi, enitrlaiu.
cd by the blacks, in onscquciiteof the mean,
nest of norne tlut trade there, .that Dessa
lincs laughs at the law of congress, interdict
ing the trade and in exulting and contempt
