BELFAS T, July 14.The following address to the National \f-fembly of France was this day agreed tounanimoully, at the commemorationof the French revolution, as propo-

feftiOnate fraternity of heart which or.rhlto unite man to man, in a mutual and infe-parab'e union bfinterefts, of duties and a Irights; which ought to unite nation vvitlination, into cr:e great republic of theworld.

" On a day, fanflified as this h?s been, bya declaration of human right, the germ oiso much good to "mankind, we meet withjoy together, and with well to France, toher National Alfembly, to her people, toher armies, and to her king-

" May you, legislators, maintain, by theindefatigable spirit ofliberty, that cc.rtitu-tion which h;: been planned by the wisdomof your predecelfors, and never may youweary in the work yon have undertaken,until you can proclaim with triumphant fc-curitv. It is fini.'iied '. Manifefi. to an atten-tive and pro'gr, .i\ e world, that it is notthe phrenzy of ph lofophy, nor the fever ofwild and precarious bberty, which couldproduce such oo -. .iued agitation, but thatimperilhablefpsr t of freedom alone, whichalways e sifts in the hearts of man, whichnow animates the heart of Europe, andwhich, in the event, will communicate it;energy throughout the world, invincibleand immortal.

PHILADELPHIA,

September."*, 1752.

The following statement of the quantityof rice (hipped from Charleflon, South-Carolina, from the 15th of Dec. 1791, toc ept. ; -i)3, hu been handed to us by a gen-tlemanfrom that capital : viz. One hun-:ired and eight thoufard five hundr;d andiixty-feven tierces. The nctt weight of:ach tierce may be averaged at jjolb.

By a private letter fr~m Canada to agentleman i;i this town, we learn, that Lt.Governor Sirncoe brought from Englandwith him all the civil officers of his new go-vernment of the Upper Province wh'ch hegoverns : also a rew regiment called theQueen's Rangers, railed for the service ofthat country, together with one battalionof the 60th, and the whole of the 24th regi-ment. amounting to nearly 1800 regulartroops : the militia of both provinces arealso tinder the ftri£teft (iifcipline. The let-ter further adds, that all the Indian warri-ors of Lower Canada have alfembled. andare on their way to join tire confederation(which is said to be general) against theUnited States ; they are to meet a grandcouncil which they fay arc to aflemble atthe Miami villages. It is thought in Qne-h c that the American; would five muchexpence and bloodfiled by a timely peace,as there never was known so generalaleague of those barbarians of the wilder-ness.

The present situation of Europe, fays acorrefpordent, (hould attract the attentionof every American citizen. He may therelearn a leflon which will enable him tojudge with what anxiety he ought towatch over the condu£t of those to whomhe has intruded the welfare of his country.When he fees the combination formed inthe old world by those who are in realitythe mere stewards of the people againsttiieir matters, though at the fame time heought to congratulate himfe'fupon his hap-py condition, he (houlddoubtlels ta'f.e everymethod in h'« power to insure the tranfmif-iion to posterity, of the bleiiings which heenjoy . For the attainment of this end,there are no means so important as a pro-per choice of representatives in Congref*,especially at the present early period ol ourI olitical life. It is from tiie youth of apeople that their national chara&erin inan-\u25a0Ood is derived. If tiie feeds of corrup-tion are early sown, the foil becomes con-genial a" ! the crop but too abundant. ThejU. :es of government arc in thi. cafe creat-:d not for the good of the public, but for:lie emolument of individual:; ; And in:'r,te the modest dignity of a republic ishrown afule for the meretricious pagean-try of monarchical !plendor. Ifon the con-trary the plant of freedom is watched withrare, and the canker-worm of corruptions never fullered to prey upon the buds ofliberty, political happiness will be left un-ululterated as a legacy to thousands ofvenerations. The pollerity of Americans\u25a0v .1 reverence the work of their anceliors,nal the example will infpirs them with aacred regard to the pledge committed to

.heir care, and freedom will still have anillyiuiii in the United States of America.
