ESSENCE OF PEPPERMINT. ' a'tM and other Medicine , . r.u unnnlv is received at I. G's Store. Raleigh j Monday, November 12. Mr. Boylak, in his last paper, has dropped one of its titles, , viz. " The Anii' Jacobin," which he says was assumed 44 when the Monsters of Ja cobinism was making gigantic strides over the U. States, and when his de solating arm was raised to -demolish the fairest pillar of our constitution, and to overturn those prudent maxims of Government which tire wisciom ana patriotism of a Washington had esta blished." : IF Mr. Boy lan thought these mon- had existence, and that he and his friends have, Quixote-like, des .nBA tKm. it is verv well. The mnceit is perfectly harmless, and v av nnthintr to do with it. Or if this party-title had become offensive to his friends, he nas uone wen to lav it aside. Indeed, we should have been-inclined to have given the lull lor of the Minerva credit for the mo derate, and apparently conciliating sentiments, which some parts of his Address on this occasion contain, i thev were ssot effectually destroyed by passages of an opposite kind, and particularly by the tallowing : The Editors of the Raleigh Register and Wan-enton Messenger are promulgates of the Laws of the U. States, and they hold their lucrative appointments at the pleasure of the Administration : It cannot therefore be expected that they will dare to publish any thing unfavourable to their employers, unless it is believed their disinterested patri otism, induced them to come all the way from "England purely to serve a people about frhom they knew nothing.1' What 1 can the Editor of the Mi nerva think so meanly of the propri etors of Newspapers, as to conceive it possible that their political conduct could be influenced by the fear of los ing the receipt of from 60 to 80 dol lars a year, paid to them for a service which is well worth the money?- Does Mr.Boylan reason from his own principles ? Would he sell his opi nions and integrity for so paltry a consideration ? lie cannot hold him self so cheap. No, Mr. Boy lan, if the Editor of. the Register 'had been composed of such pliant materials, he had never become a citizen of the U. States. He left a ccAintry where, unhappily, political principle is bought and sold, and whei;e he might have had his price. v It' was because he would not be purchased because he preferred freedom to every other con sideration, that he sacrificed liis pro perty, left his friends, and hisnative land, to enjoy the tree government of this country. Besides", if this employment of publishing the laws of the Union could possibly be so very binding in its nature on the Register and Mes senger, why is it not equally binding on. others ? How is it, for instance, that the Editor of the Halifax Jour nal are to insert any thing in his paper which might displease the pre btotok on experiment, tern which they nave acioptetl does not promote the true interests ot the public, then surely Mr. Boylan him self will allow, that there is Virtue and Patriotism enough m the country to lead to the choice of other Ru lers, and to induce other measures. Will any man be base enough to say, that Americans know not how to ap preciate the blessings of that Govern ment which they have so dearly pur chased, but that they will tamely submit to see it perverted and abused ! j l ne citizens ui uie oi.at.ta t ui overawed by an Hereditary Ruler they are not cursed with a perpetua tion of Tyrants, but, free to chuse, they can, every four years, remove, or re-elect their President. . Hence it has been well said, " that'a Chiet Magistrate is above the private mem bers of a communijy ; but the com munity itself is above him." Believing as he does, tha the pre sent Administration endeavours, by wise and peaceable means, to secure the welfare and happiness of the U. States, the Editor of the Register will, to the best of his abilities, de fend and recommend a continuance of it. And this he will do, without illibcrality and without abftfe. If, in return, his motives be still impeach ed, and he still meet with malicious abuse, he will nevertheless steadily pursue his even course unmoved, and, in the words of Cato, say, 44 My Life shall give tie tie to my calumniators' ceived from Mr. Simpson, our Con sul at Tangier, of my intention to leave the Essex to watch the conduct of two galleys at that place, and of my proceeding immediately to Salle to inform myself, of the movements, and if possible, of the intention of the Emperor's three ships mentioned in Mr. Simpson's communications to Commodore Barron, copies ol which the latter eentleman has forwarded to you : I did so and arrived and an- chored betore balle the 20th (taking Arailla, Mamora and Earache in my rout) where I found the three ships in question and to all appearance nearly ready for sea.

Extvact of a letter dated July iO. " At length Naples has felt a spasm of energy ; and its squadron for the first time has made a visit to this port ; but we cannot imagine the reasons which prevented the Admiral's making himself master of the whole naval force of this re gency. On the 26th ult. one ship of the line, and three tngates, en tered the road of the Gouletta, shewing English colours ; (most ot the corsairs were ready for sea, md anchored at a considerable distance from the batteries) a frigate laid along siae oi tne i unisiun inutc, and commenced the attack by a ge neral dischaige of musquetry, shewingat the same time the Nea politan flag; some of the Tunisians on board the frigate instantly cut her cables, while others endeavour ed to make their escape by swim ming to shore : the Tunisian frigate drifted under the forts, receiving without any resistance, the full force of the enemy's great guns.

At a separate election held on Wed nesday, all the votes were for the Colonel. We have not heard from John ston and Gran villet the other two counties of this district, nor from any of the other districts. A London paper of September 8th says, 44 One hundred Ship wrights from Brest have. arrived at Antvverp, where there are .1500 now assembled. Their number isS to be increased to 5000. The keel of 7 ships ot the line have been laid down there, which will increase the number of ships of the line on 1 1 mr tne stocks to. lzu. Ureat ouanti- ties ot timber and other materials are arriving at Antwerp from Brussels and Holland. Thev also expect 800 slaves, who will be em ployed in the works carrying on in that port." Capt. Rook, arrived at New- York, from Batavia, informs, that the produce of the island of Java was so extravagantly hich and scarce, thata orreat number of ves- sels, unable to procure cargoes, were compelled to leave it for other ports ; and that in consequence of the sailing ol the Japan fleet, an ent Administration for no one will embargo would take place at Bata- say that he is under any improper via a levy days alter Capt. R s. de influence of this kind. And yet he still continues to publish the laws of Congress. :a The truth is, and Mr. Boylan ought to acknowledge it, and not seek for any other cause for the different com plexions of the Register and Miner va, that the Editor of the Register, and those who act on like principles, differ fundamentally in opinion with him as to what system of political measures are best calculated for the good of the country, ft'hey believe that an Administration conducted in lhe true spirit of Republicanism (of which kind they consider the present) is calculated to promote this good ; whilst the Editor of the Minarva, and those whose opinions he espou es, aouDiiess peiieve that a more energetic system (such as was Mr. Adams's Administration would be preferable. 1 Now. since there is this difference of opinion, not only among the printers, but pervading the peo ple of the U. States, as to what is kfct jn Government, would it not be ttt caadid and just, for every man parture, and continue for several days. Capt. R. further informs that the Malay pirates were very troublesome in the Straits. Commodore Barron arrived at Gibraltar with his squadron on the 12th August last. , On his ar rival he found several dispatches from Mr. Simpson our Consul at Morocco, all stating in strong terms the hostile disposition of the EmperOr of Morocco against our commerce, and the prepara tions making by him o send out three frigates and two galleys upon a cruise. Mr. Simpson urging the indispensible necessity of lea ving two ot the frigates upon that station, the Commodore accord ingly left the Congress, C-ipt. Ro fers, and the Essex, Capt. James larron. The following extract of a letter from Capt, Rogers to the success, and fearing that a farther at tempt on the subject might lead to suspicions unfavourable to a good un derstanding, I made sail and pur sued my course back to Tangier, where 1 again on the.27th joineflthe Essex. At Laracbe I found the ship Meshouda (ci-devant Tripoline) in a state of ordinary, but at Arzilla and Mamora there was not a single ves sel of any description. On my re turn again to Tangier I made the usual signul to communicate with oyr Consul, and in an hour after had the pleasure of receiving advices from him corroborating my own opi nion 44 that whatever grounds there might have been for suspicion, that they were. so far removed as to admit of one of the ships leaving this coast." Two days after I left Tangier for Salle, the two galleys which the Es sex was left to watch, sailed, and one of them was boarded by her in sight of Tangier. This circum stance serves to prove that they had no orders to capture American ves sels, or they certainly would not have gone to sea while the Essex was in siht. These two galleys, with the three ships at Salle, comprise the greater part, if not the whole ma rine force of Morocco. Since the galleys sailed I have heard , of their being at Cadiz. The ships are inside of Salle Bar, and I have reason to believe there is but little probability of their going to sea this summer, as I am told there never has been an in stance of their large cruisers going to sea lor the purpose ot cruising, after the 10th of September. I shall leave this the instant I get water on board sufficient for 6 or 7 weeks, which I am in hopes will not take longer than to-inorrow evening, and proceed direct to Tripolir where I flatter myself, (if Capt. Preble has not made a previous attack) I shall yet arrive in time, to co-operate with Commodore Barron ; for I shall be greatly mortified if the Congress did not share a part of the credit to be derived from the reduction of Tri poli, by inscribing a lasting and ho norable remembrance of her name on its walls. has two shot between wind and wa ter, and her foremast somewhat injuped.
