KENTUCKY GAZETTE. " True to his charge 'He comes, the Herald of a noisy world; ' News from all nations, lumb'ringathis back." LEXINGTON, JUNE 30, 1812. News of the Declauation of War Arrived in this place on Friday last' wneii there was a liring ot cannon and musquetry commenced, and kept up un- til late in the evening. The same thing we understand, took place at Frankfort. In this town, Winchester, Richmond and Nicholasville-th- houses were illumina- ted and most decided evidence of ap probation of the measures, was every vnere manuestecl. In the moment of Joy, when the citi zens saw their country a second time declared independent it is reported that at Nicholaville, Winchester and Rich mond, Mr. Pope our Senator who oppo- sed the War was burned in effigy Seventeen Thousand men have been recruit-'e- d for the new Army. A British sleet of sour sail .of the line, and several frigates has arrived at Halifax. Fourteen seamen (no doubt impressed Amer icans,) deserted from the- - Hritish schooner Mackrel, lately arrived at New-Yor- with Mr. Ruff, the King's messenger. A petition has been presented to Congress from a respectable number of merchants and others of New-Yor- praying, a continuance of tne embargo, a lew months longer than the time for which it was passed. The celebrated D'l'rujo aiyived lately at Bal- timore from South America. The Virginia papers state,- - that additional troops are assembling to protect Norfolk surprise j that troops have arrived there from Maryland, and that orders had been given Tor all the new Infantry in the state to march to that point. A sufficient number of troops has assembled at New-Yor- k to repel any attack th.it can be mjfe on that city. The fortifica- tions are neany completed. Volunteers to furnis.li the quota of lOO.OOd Jiave nobly stept forward in every state where the requisition lus been Inade. Two hundred and sixty acres of land have been purchased by government near Albany, (N. Y.) a cainp where is to be, formed and ex- tensive barracks erected. On the Slh inst. the army under the command of Brig-- , lien. Hull, lest the encampment near Dayton, and marched towards Detroit, where it lias arrived ere thisltime. IIenkt's Mission The authority given by Sir John Craig for Henry's mission to Boston has been admitted by the English minister in both houses of Parliament yet thuv. wish to throw the whole blame on Craig, just as they did the murder of Pierce on Whitby, and the murders of- - the Chesapeake, on Humphrey f. Hut Whitby, Humphreys, and Craig, instead of disgrace met with promotion on tlicir return to England Strongproof .indeed, that his majesty did not sanction their conduct .' On Friday afternoon (the day which the news of the Declaration War arrived) the citizens of this place and its Vicinity assembled ; con- formable to public notice to express their thereon. John Fowler esq. was chosen cliairman, and Thomas T. Barr. Secretary to the meeting. Aster an eloquent address from Mr. Bledsoe, in which he took a view of our relations with Great.Britain, he moved the following Resolu- tion which were unanimously adopted ; Tvlh'en. crisis arrives in the affairs of a Free, Independent and Republican na- tion, a nation acknowledging the obli- gation of Justice and the will of the peo- ple as the sole guides of their Public Conduct to assert by force those rights of which a Hostile Power lias by a series of the most wanton and continued aggression attempted to deprive Uiem it becomes not merely the privilege, but tne duty, of every portion of the commu- nity to express tlieir'opinions freely res. pecting public men and public measures. And this appeal's evidently toTje the more necessary, when the success of those measures, must essentially depend upon the support derived from Public Senti- ment. The Feople of T exington and its Vicin- ity believing that such a tXm-ha- s arri- ved as r"spects the People of America and the Government of Great Britain. And b 'ing assured from sources which do not admit of doubt, that WAR has heen declared by the Congress of the U. S against that Power, aster a patience of I Injury unparalleled in history and unbe coming a Brave and Free People are desirous to Testify their sense of this Im portant measure and to throw their mite into the' Great National Balance upon this momentous occasion. They are aware, that it belongs immediately to the con- stituted authorities to decide on this in- teresting subject. But they cannot for- get, that their decision ought to be the mere expression of the Public V. Those now assenibjcn believcthey are only echo- ing the voice of their fellow citizens "wherever the American character exhts in its purity when they Resolve 1 That a War on the part of the United States against Great Britain, has been for-ce- d upon us by the latter, by a course of measures directed both insidiously and o- - j penlv against the hanpiness, honor and in- - dependence of our countrywhich is sol- - lowed . by submission on our part, must, end in the subversion ofour Government' and the destruction of all that Freemen should hold most dear. 2. Resolved, that the Rights and Inde- pendence of the American People call aloud for a War against Great Britain : (1) Because shp has made slaves of thou- sands of our fellow citizens, immured them ifi her floating dungeons, and com- pelled them to sight her battles. (2) Be- cause she has seized and converted to her own use millions worth of our propertv, and declares that we shall onlv trade where, when and with whom she wills : thus making ofour Resources the means j ohcr power and her will the Rule of her conduct. (3.) Because she has at- tempted to divide our Union and excite Domestic Insurrections amongst us. (4.) Because she has endeavored to bring "on the Inhabitants of our frontiers the " merciless Indian Savaces. Whose " known rule of warfare, is an undistin-- " guished massacre' of all ages, sexes and "conditions. (5.) Because in sine, she neither promises us redress for all those Injuries and Insults, nor that she will re- frain from the commission of .them in su- ture. We enter not further on the de- tail because their recapitulation but re- minds us of the disgrace in nothavintr be sore attempted to avenge them. 3. Resolved, that the Administration of our General Government possesses our entire confidence, and that we will sun- - port it through all the stages of war tothe attainment of our Just Rights as a nation, to the extent of all that tve have, or are. 4. Resolved, that those who have tem- porised,' orVopposed the declaration of war, are unworthythe confidence of free- men. 5- - Resolved, that while we are sully sensible of the injuries done to us by France, a war with that power at this timej would imprudently hazard; our means of annoying Great Britain', and rashly put an end to a pending' negotiation for an adjust- ment of our differences and indemnificati- on of our losses. And we think it would be criminal fol- ly to fml it out of our hoiver to assert one just claim because tae have another, unsa tisfied. - 6." Resolved, that we view those who will not aid our government in this our second struggle for Independence, as en- emies of their Country. 7. Resolved, that similar meetings be recommended to all Free Americans, for the purpose of expressing their opinions on this Great Subject, 'that Great Britain and the world may sec that our adminis tration have the entire confidence of the American people ; whose agents they are, whose organ they have been in dqclaring War, and whose display of strcngh will ever be seen in the xeflected lustre of the peoples power. Kesolved, that comes of these Resolu- tions be forwarded to the governor of this state, the President of riie U. States, and to each house of Congress. At a Barbacue given to Capt. Hamilton's Com. pany of Volunteers, at Gen. "Robert Russell's Mill in this count)-- , on Saturday, the 5?th of .nine Auer dinner, uen. Konert Todd was chosen l'reisdent, and Gen.

Extract of a letter from the iron. II. Clay to tlie Editor of the Heporter, dated, "Ci-r- or Wasiiixgto.v, June 20, 1812. " Owing to the occupation of Congress in confidential deliberations, I had fdreborne to communicate withyou on political subjects for several mails. I am now at liberty to announce that War is declared against England. On the first inst. the President sent us an able message recommending the measure. On the 4th the House of Representatives passed tha Jiill, by a majority of thirty votes; exclusive of my own. and of others who were absent. On the 17th the bill passed through the Senate, with some 'unessential amendments. It was reported to the House on the 18th, when an attempt being renewed to deleat the hill, it was repelled, 85 to 44. The House concurred in the Senate's amendments, and on that day the President the bill. Every patriot bosom must throb with anxious solicitude for the result. Every patriot arm will assist, in making that result conducive to the glory of our beloved country." Extract of a letter from a member of Congress to a gentleman in this'ilace, dated " City of Washington, June 21. 1812. "On Perceval was shot dead, as he was entering the lobby of the House of Commons the report of this as fair in the London Courier, leads one to supposc; that the discontents in London are very alarming. Belling ham was the assassin he acknowledged the facts and justified his own conscience, by reference to individual injuries which the minister had refused to redress.

Tvlh'en. crisis arrives in the affairs ofa Free, Independent and Republican na-tion, a nation acknowledging the obli-gation of Justice and the will of the peo-ple as the sole guides of their PublicConduct to assert by force thoserights of which a Hostile Power lias by aseries of the most wanton and continuedaggression attempted to deprive Uiemit becomes not merely the privilege, buttne duty, of every portion of the commu-nity to express tlieir'opinions freely res.pecting public men and public measures.

And this appeal's evidently toTje themore necessary, when the success ofthosemeasures, must essentially depend uponthe support derived from Public Senti-ment.

The Feople of T exington and its Vicin-ity believing that such a tXm-ha- s arri-

ved as r"spects the People of Americaand the Government of Great Britain.And b 'ing assured from sources whichdo not admit of doubt, that WAR hasheen declared by the Congress of the U.S against that Power, aster a patience of I

Injury unparalleled in history and unbecoming a Brave and Free People aredesirous to Testify their sense of this Important measure and to throw their miteinto the' Great National Balance upon thismomentous occasion. They are aware,that it belongs immediately to the con-

stituted authorities to decide on this in-

teresting subject. But they cannot for-

get, that their decision ought to be themere expression of the Public V. Thosenow assenibjcn believcthey are only echo-

ing the voice of their fellow citizens"wherever the American character exhtsin its purity when they Resolve

1 That a War on the part of the UnitedStates against Great Britain, has been for-ce- d

upon us by the latter, by a course ofmeasures directed both insidiously and o- - j

penlv against the hanpiness, honor and in- -

dependence of our countrywhich is sol- -

lowed.

by submission on our part, must,end in the subversion ofour Government'and the destruction of all that Freemenshould hold most dear.

2. Resolved, that the Rights and Inde-

pendence of the American People callaloud for a War against Great Britain :

(1) Because shp has made slaves of thou-sands of our fellow citizens, immuredthem ifi her floating dungeons, and com-

pelled them to sight her battles. (2) Be-

cause she has seized and converted to herown use millions worth of our propertv,and declares that we shall onlv tradewhere, when and with whom she wills :

thus making ofour Resources the means j

ohcr power and her will the Rule ofher conduct. (3.) Because she has at-

tempted to divide our Union and exciteDomestic Insurrections amongst us. (4.)Because she has endeavored to bring"on the Inhabitants of our frontiers the" merciless Indian Savaces. Whose" known rule of warfare, is an undistin-- "

guished massacre' of all ages, sexes and"conditions. (5.) Because in sine, sheneither promises us redress for all thoseInjuries and Insults, nor that she will re-

frain from the commission of .them in su-

ture. We enter not further on the de-

tail because their recapitulation but re-

minds us of the disgrace in nothavintr besore attempted to avenge them.

3. Resolved, that the Administration ofour General Government possesses ourentire confidence, and that we will sun- -port it through all the stages of war totheattainment of our Just Rights as a nation,to the extent of all that tve have, or are.

4. Resolved, that those who have tem-porised,' orVopposed the declaration ofwar, are unworthythe confidence of free-men.

5- - Resolved, that while we are sullysensible of the injuries done to us byFrance, a war with that power at this timejwould imprudently hazard; our means ofannoying Great Britain', and rashly put anend to a pending' negotiation for an adjust-ment of our differences and indemnificati-on of our losses.

And we think it would be criminal fol-

ly to fml it out of our hoiver to assert onejust claim because tae have another, unsatisfied. -

6." Resolved, that we view those whowill not aid our government in this oursecond struggle for Independence, as en-emies of their Country.

7. Resolved, that similar meetings berecommended to all Free Americans, forthe purpose of expressing their opinionson this Great Subject, 'that Great Britainand the world may sec that our administration have the entire confidence of theAmerican people ; whose agents they are,whose organ they have been in dqclaringWar, and whose display of strcngh willever be seen in the xeflected lustre of thepeoples power.

Kesolved, that comes of these Resolu-tions be forwarded to the governor of thisstate, the President of riie U. States, andto each house of Congress.

Extract of a letter from the iron. II. Clay to tlieEditor of the Heporter, dated,

"Ci-r- or Wasiiixgto.v, June 20, 1812." Owing to the occupation of Congress in

confidential deliberations, I had fdreborne tocommunicate withyou on political subjects forseveral mails. I am now at liberty to announcethat War is declared against England. On thefirst inst. the President sent us an able messagerecommending the measure. On the 4th theHouse of Representatives passed tha Jiill, bya majority of thirty votes; exclusive of my own.and of others who were absent. On the 17ththe bill passed through the Senate, with some'unessential amendments. It was reported tothe House on the 18th, when an attempt beingrenewed to deleat the hill, it was repelled, 85to 44. The House concurred in the Senate'samendments, and on that day the President

the bill. Every patriot bosom mustthrob with anxious solicitude for the result.Every patriot arm will assist, in making thatresult conducive to the glory of our belovedcountry."
