Mr. Ogilvie observed with marked fenfibili- - ty, that,on that occasion, he had the f addreflins a more nurrfeYous au dience, Tntproporrion to the population of the place, than any of his Orations hid be : r- - attracted in any of the cities, througn which ihe had pa(Ted. , That an amusement of a character in many respects novel, in its very chance literary and intellectual, and peculiarly addreffed to persons of reflection and re- finement, ofufteand intelligence; ar: wnose proleffed object it is to render eloquence, subiervient to the purposes of sctjjiiljeiand benefi'-ence- ; an amusement', peculiarly adap edto the spir- it of a pp4)ul3r';geernmeht, and the dif- fused intelligence of an independent peo- ple ; that arf amuicmen.t'fbf this nature should have excited the attention of a greater nu Tiber tff individuals in Sa vannah, in proportion to its papula- tion, than in a?i y of the pimcipal ci ties ot the United btases, n a tact rfc Kiarkable enough nbt only to attract editorial notice,. but perhaps 'of suffi. cient magnitude and interest to' deserve a place in the annals of Georgia. ', The fact becomes the mote mterefting and remarkable, from our knowledge, lhat Mr. Ogilvle's success in the progress cf an extensive excursion through all the principle cities, and many of the smaller towns in the northen and eastern states) has bcn brilliant, perhaps beyond exam pie, in the annals of successful literary in- novation, Mr. OGILVIE'S ORATION ON GATING.

This oration, (which has been anxious. ly revised and confiderabiy enlarged) was originally composed for the purpose of il- lustrating the utility of nflitutions for the protection and education of orphans. Such lnltitmions conltitute and ellenfial nerve i ot the social system, i vital organ of pop. ular government a uecetTarvppend x o ,i,.,t.,f and mod eauitable laws, that human wisdnrr can devise, r human vir- tue administer.

Sjich inft tutions rescue 'from destitution and di pravity, a numerous class df individuals, whom the inevitible imperfection of po litical ioftitutions. and the accidents of ad verse fortune, must otherwise have pre- defined, to'" become the remorseless pests of the hon-f- t and induftriouj ; or, the helpl-s- s prey of- - the profl- igate.

It is ho'iorable to the American people, that not only in the principal cities, butln mauy of the smaller towns of. the United States intlitutions of this sort have been eftabhshed, by the spontaneous combina- tion, and are supported by tbe liberil con- tributions bf respectable pewons, of both sexes. The opportunities Which have'oc-cafional- ly offeied, (in Uieprugiess of an cxrenliveexctirlion through theU.

War America and Great Bri- tain was much talked of yesterday, chiefly in confequeiiQt of the intelligence receiv--ed-b,- the Lady Arabell packet from Jamatta, purporting that the Am-ric- an government baa encouiaged the building of French privateers to a great extent in their,dacks, forthe purpose cruizing against the British shipping in the West Indies I Similar information reached this Country some time ago directly from America, but was then littlei credited ; the account however, is now rendered more deserving attention, by the re- port ofthe Mariner, Liverpool, which anived at Jamaica, on the 3d of March. On her passage, ten leagues to the east-wai- d ofDeseada, she was boarded by the Charybdis brig of war, and was infoimed, that five heavy- - privateers, manned vfth ancKmost them carrying 20 gun$, equipped m American ports, were'cruiging in that latitude,) and several vessels war were on the look-o- ut forMwm, ' May 12,, Yesterday letters were received, via, Yarmouth, from the Baltic, announcing the arrival ot Sir James Saurrtarez with Btitish squadron in that sea. 'J he in- habitants of Swrden & Denmark, though prepared this event, appear to ha.e caught the. alarm, andjbeen apprehensive of an attack. Inimeaiately on our squa- dron anchoring--' off Gottenburgh, count Von'Effcn, the govei nor, directed .he batteries to be manned, the troops to line the coast, and every attempt at landing to be repelled: measures were also taken t gutrtl the"ships of war Carlsciona, and the cargoes of the detained essels in that port ordered to e landed, and car-rir- d into interior. Bernadotte was to quit Stockholm on the 6th, to m'akea tour ofihe coast, and was expected tb visit Gojtrnburgbrf're his return. The troops were mjrch'ing fiom the interior towards thepiincipal pi ces- - em'the Coast. It is believed by. the inhabita ts ooth of Denmark and Sweden, that oui sleet hns areat military force on board, be- sides stand arms.

It, is probably that the question of peace war between this country and America will depend on 'the nature the first dispatches from Mr. Foster. The activity with w.lyrh privateers with the Fiench coloursare fitted out in American ports and by American captains, is not only a species of warfare, but the most injurious species which it is in the power 'ofthe United States to wage agaiuft G. uritam. besides, to have the ports and harbours - of that country neutral only for The protection an'd advance of the enemy, and hostile 'for all purposes active conveyance, is a state of things, whicji was scarcely endurable in the case j.of Sicily, in the years 18OI and 1805 ; utin luch an immenfc tract of sea coast as that America, both honour and in- - wJe'hr we shall beat war or peace with inch a government,, but which ot the two kinds of War we shall adopt, that which enables us to make reprisals and tn nritp .. 11 .!. n.nLTnn.... or mat wjucn ties our lundi behind us, while arl1 insnltincr enemv. with thf m. veterate passions of private fnleen, picks our pogcet;sjina lpits our laces.

M, saw a strange sail, to which I in, mediately gave chsce. At 1 P. M. discovered her to be a man of war, app-ii'cntl- y a frigate, standing to the eastward vvho, when he made us out, edged away for iw, and set his royals. M.idp the signal 275, and finding it not an- swered, concluded it was an American frigate, as she had a Commodore's blue pendant ft) ing at the nTain. Hoisted the cnloui s and made all sail south, the course I intended to steer round Cape Hatteras; the sti anger edging away but not making any more sail. At 3 30 firding he giined so considerably on us as not to be able to elude him during the night, being vi'hm gun shot, and clearly discerning the stars on his broad pendant, I imagined that the most prudent method was, to bring to and hoist the colours, that no mistake might arise, and that he mightste what we were. The ship w as brought too, her colours hois- ted, her guns double shotted and every preparation made in case of a surprise. By lin manner of steering down, he evi dently wished to lay his ship in a position of raking, which I fiustiated by wearing three times. About 8 15 he came within hail. hailed and asked what ship ? He repeated my question. I again hailed and askud what ship it was?Heigain repeated the words, and tired a broad side, which I instantly returned. The action then be came general, and continued so for nearl) three quarters bf an hour, when he ceased siring, and appeared to be on sire about the main hatchway. He ,then filled I was obliged to desist from suing, as the ship sailing off ilo gun could bear, and hail no atter sails .o keep her too. All the rjg-gil- ig and sails cut to, pieces ; not a brace nor a bowline lest. He hailed and asked what ship thisVvas ? I told him. He then asked me is I had struck my colours ?

Aster delivering his ORATION. Mr.Ogilvie observed with marked fenfibili- -

ty, that,on that occasion, he had the faddreflins a more nurrfeYous au

dience, Tntproporrion to the population ofthe place, than any of his Orations hid be: r- - attracted in any of the cities, througnwhich ihe had pa(Ted. ,

That an amusement of a character inmany respects novel, in its very chanceliterary and intellectual, and peculiarlyaddreffed to persons of reflection and re-

finement, ofufteand intelligence; ar:wnose proleffed object it is

to render eloquence, subiervient to thepurposes of sctjjiiljeiand benefi'-ence- ; anamusement', peculiarly adap edto the spir-it of a pp4)ul3r';geernmeht, and the dif-fused intelligence of an independent peo-ple ; that arf amuicmen.t'fbf this natureshould have excited the attention ofa greater nu Tiber tff individuals in Savannah, in proportion to its papula-tion, than in a?iy of the pimcipal cities ot the United btases, n a tact rfc

Kiarkable enough nbt only to attracteditorial notice,. but perhaps 'of suffi.cient magnitude and interest to' deservea place in the annals of Georgia. ',

The fact becomes the mote mtereftingand remarkable, from our knowledge,lhat Mr. Ogilvle's success in the progresscf an extensive excursion through all theprinciple cities, and many of the smallertowns in the northen and eastern states)has bcn brilliant, perhaps beyond exampie, in the annals of successful literary in-

novation,

Mr. OGILVIE'S ORATIONONGATING.

Wa3 delivered on Thursday evening, toan auaience evenmore numerous, than nadatfembled, to listen to hisjireceeding Ora-tion on Duelling. Z.

ORATION ON BENEFICENCE.ON MOW-BA- EVENING.

At half aster o'clock. Mr. Ogilvie milldeliver, 'in toe new room oj the exchange;

AN ORAtlOS ON BEXPC1CENCE.Wltb appn priate rtcitat orts ; Jor the

benefit of the Female Asylum, recentlyestablished in this city.This oration, (which has been anxious.

ly revised and confiderabiy enlarged) wasoriginally composed for the purpose of il-

lustrating the utility of nflitutions for theprotection and education of orphans. Suchlnltitmions conltitute and ellenfial nerve i

ot the social system, i vital organ of pop.ular government a uecetTarvppend x o,i,.,t.,f and mod eauitable laws, thathuman wisdnrr can devise, r human vir-tue administer. Judjciously organizedand conductpd, iligj Ureugthen the veyfoundationsof societyhdplirify the vryfountains of social happiness. Sjich infttutions rescue 'from destitution and dipravity, a numerous class df individuals,whom the inevitible imperfection of political ioftitutions. and the accidents of adverse fortune, must otherwise have pre-defined, to'" become the remorselesspests of the hon-f- t and induftriouj ;or, the helpl-s- s prey of- - the profl-igate. They ftnke at the very 'rootof those enormities, a: Which ' ty

shuddersj which make thevpros-perou- srqau " list up hit hands, and won-

der whb could d;p them 1" bv inducing thevictims of indigence and misfoitune, to regard their opulent and accomplished neigh-bours, not as enemies of oppretTors tieunfeeling 'spectators or .directors bgentsof iheir misery, btrt as benefactors andfriends, i.i whose benefictnee they find anasylum from wretchedness.

It is ho'iorable to the American people,that not only in the principal cities, butlnmauy of the smaller towns of. the UnitedStates intlitutions of this sort have beeneftabhshed, by the spontaneous combina-tion, and are supported by tbe liberil con-tributions bf respectable pewons, of bothsexes. The opportunities Which have'oc-cafional-ly

offeied, (in Uieprugiess of ancxrenliveexctirlion through theU. 'States)of illudrating the utility, and enlargingthe funds of such institutions, have atTii.redly1 afforded 'Mr. Ogilvie the purest andmost solid pleasures, to which he has hadaccess ; p'easures, in hii efifmation,

prectous, and'to his feelings alikeevpry viciffttudeOTfortune,

and every fluctuition of f healtlf. and spir.'it. .

It istttenefore with peculiar satisfaction,ut Mr. W. announce Bis inteiuihn of

..riivetinc. tor th benefit of the, FemnlrAylum recently eltabluhed'rin this city,an oration, winch has been previously de- -ivcred tor a similar purpose in all the

r conceives, be improper to add thatwhen this oration was delivered in Boston,'be m arifmg Irom the sale of tickets of

t Londun, 31 'ay, 11.War America and Great Bri-

tain was much talked of yesterday, chieflyin confequeiiQt of the intelligence receiv--ed-b,-

the Lady Arabell packet fromJamatta, purporting that the Am-ric- an

government baa encouiaged the buildingof French privateers to a great extent intheir,dacks, forthe purpose cruizingagainst the British shipping in the WestIndies I Similar information reached thisCountry some time ago directly fromAmerica, but was then littlei credited ;

the account however, is now renderedmore deserving attention, by the re-

port ofthe Mariner, Liverpool, whichanived at Jamaica, on the 3d of March.On her passage, ten leagues to the east-wai- d

ofDeseada, she was boarded by theCharybdis brig of war, and was infoimed,that five heavy-- privateers, manned vfth

ancKmost them carrying20 gun$, equipped m American ports,were'cruiging in that latitude,) andseveral vessels war were on the look-o- ut

May 12,,Yesterday letters were received, via,

Yarmouth, from the Baltic, announcingthe arrival ot Sir James Saurrtarez with

Btitish squadron in that sea. 'J he in-

habitants of Swrden & Denmark, thoughprepared this event, appear to ha.ecaught the. alarm, andjbeen apprehensiveof an attack. Inimeaiately on our squa-dron anchoring--' off Gottenburgh, countVon'Effcn, the govei nor, directed .hebatteries to be manned, the troops to linethe coast, and every attempt at landingto be repelled: measures were also takent gutrtl the"ships of war Carlsciona,and the cargoes of the detained essels inthat port ordered to e landed, and car-rir- d

It is believed by. the inhabita ts oothof Denmark and Sweden, that oui sleethns areat military force on board, be-

M.iy 13.It, is probably that the question of

peace war between this country andAmerica will depend on 'the nature thefirst dispatches from Mr. Foster. Theactivity with w.lyrh privateers with theFiench coloursare fitted out in Americanports and by American captains, is notonly a species of warfare, but the mostinjurious species which it is in the power'ofthe United States to wage agaiuft G.uritam. besides, to have the ports andharbours - of that country neutral onlyfor The protection an'd advance of theenemy, and hostile 'for all purposesactive conveyance, is a state of things,whicji was scarcely endurable in the case

" Sir I beg leave to acquaint you, thatin pursuancescf your orders to join 11. M.ship Guerrier, and being on mv return fromthe NdilhWrd, not having fallen in withher First about 11 A. M, saw a strangesail, to which I in, mediately gave chsce.At 1 P. M. discovered her to be a manof war, app-ii'cntl- y a frigate, standing tothe eastward vvho, when he made us out,edged away for iw, and set his royals.M.idp the signal 275, and finding it not an-

swered, concluded it was an Americanfrigate, as she had a Commodore's bluependant ft) ing at the nTain. Hoisted thecnloui s and made all sail south, the courseI intended to steer round Cape Hatteras;the sti anger edging away but not makingany more sail. At 3 30 firding he giinedso considerably on us as not to be able toelude him during the night, being vi'hmgun shot, and clearly discerning the starson his broad pendant, I imagined that themost prudent method was, to bring to andhoist the colours, that no mistake mightarise, and that he mightste what we were.The ship w as brought too, her colours hois-

ted, her guns double shotted and everypreparation made in case of a surprise.By lin manner of steering down, he evidently wished to lay his ship in a positionof raking, which I fiustiated by wearingthree times. About 8 15 he came withinhail. hailed and asked what ship ? Herepeated my question. I again hailed andaskud what ship it was?Heigain repeatedthe words, and tired a broad side, which Iinstantly returned. The action then became general, and continued so for nearl)three quarters bf an hour, when he ceasedsiring, and appeared to be on sire about themain hatchway. He ,then filled I wasobliged to desist from suing, as the shipsailing off ilo gun could bear, and hail noatter sails .o keep her too. All the rjg-gil- ig

and sails cut to, pieces ; not a bracenor a bowline lest. He hailed and askedwhat ship thisVvas ? I told him. He thenasked me is I had struck my colours ? Myanswer was No, and asked what ship itwas ? As plain as I could understand (hehaving shot atsomedistanceatthistnne) hr

on the contrary, the genius of our repie-seatativ- e

government says, the people tantsuan: the riscbt &f in't'itct in eneecrthey please ; because the r"ifling mthe legislatme, like every othri n!,t amipower that body poiTtfs, is only de.cgat i.And as it is now admitted en all ban(even by those who th-n- otherife) thatthe will of the people is b tiding on theuvimmediate representatives, how wilt thcrlegislature dare disobey at any time theexpressed Iqitimentsot tnejrconltituentJwhether directed to themfeives, or to Senators in Congress ?
