proclamation if fix months credit is given, for which
notes of hand will be expected ; and Five Pounds pro
clamation to ensure the mares with foal,
TAMERLANE is a beautiful bay; fifteen hands
three inches high ; eight years old this spring ; his blood,
activity, movements, bottom, and speed, are equal to
any horse of the turf in the United States: He was
got by Colonel Brent's Figure, out of Rofoline; Col.
Brent's Figure was got by Doctor Hamilton's Figure,
out of Ebony; Ebony was got by Othello, ®ut of Old
Selima, the most valuable mare that ever was in this

Arabian ; Rofoline was got by Eariel, out of Col.
Talker's noted mare Stilla; Earial was got by Mor
ton's Traveller, out of Silima; Stilla was got by Othel

Sportsmen will all agree in this, and that there can
not be better crosses than those Tamerlane possesses ;
Colonel Lee, of the late American Legion, gave nine
ty-fix hogsheads of tobacco for him in August, 1782,
and fold him to Colonel White last May for Eleven
Hundred Pounds.
Good pasture will be provided for mares, and the
best care and attendance paid to them.

L O N DO N, January 3.
Last Saturday being New Year's Day, their Ma
jefties and several of the Royal Family came from
Buckingham-house to St. James's, and were present
at the performance of the Ode, as was the Prince of
Wales ; afterwards they attended the Court and
Drawing-room, at which were present many & the
Nobility, the Archbifliop of Canterbury, and several
Bishops, and most of the foreign Ambassadors, who
came to pay their compliments to their Majesties on
account of the new year. Her Majesty and the Prin
cess Royal had close dresses on; the gowns wore white
silk striped with brown; the Queens head dress was
elegantly adorned with jewels, but no ribands; the
Princess Royal's head was neatly ornamented with
feathers, ribands, and jewels. The ladies in general
were dressed in pale pink fattin and white fiwcylpettf
coats; their heads were adorned with poppy-coloured
PARI S, December 23.
Our Colonels having unexpectedly received orders
to get ready their field equipages, they are accord
ingly busy in collecting the neceflary articles for that
purpose.
One hundred and eighty thousand sacks of corn
have been distributed in the frontier places of France,
and 175,000 feptiers of oats in 1 landers.
VENIC E, December 17.
As the differences between our Court and the Re
publick of Holland are not likely to be amicably ad
justed, it seems to be the determination of our senate
rather to rifle a war with the Republick, than pay the
600,000 florins which the dates demand. This be
ing the case, our arsenals are kept at work day and
night, and every thing is preparing to repel force by
force, if it is found necessary.
VIENN A, December 18.
11HE march of our troops, which was from some
inevitable occurrences delayed, is now pushed
forward with redoubled activity, and instead of
being 56 days on their march, they are only to be 40.
France has made such proposals to our court as can
not be accepted, and at last added, that they could
not desert the Dutch, but must make their cause the
cause of France. Our sovereign en the other hand
Lill insists on the opening the Scheldt or a war.
It is said the Dutch have proposed to grant the free
navigation of the Scheldt to Austrian vessels only
without guns, on condition of paying a trifling toll;
and they would also make good the damage done by
the overflowing of the lands round the forts, but will
have nothing to do with the making good of any of
our other immense expences attendant upon the dis
pute in question.
