ties of Philadelphia, should be convened
at the State-house, on Monday the 14th
instant, at four o'clock in the afternoon, on
bufinels of the utmost importance to them,
selves, to their families, and to their coun
try.
Their punctual attendance, at the time
and place above mentioned, is most earnest
ly requested. July 12, 1783.
A CITY COURT will be held at the Court-
House in this city, on Monday the 2SHI
infant, at Ten o'Clock in the Forenoon ;of
