}TIE council of proprietors of the eastern divisi
on of New-Jersey met at Princeton on the 6th
inst. having thought it expedient and proper that
the Surveyor-General's office for the laid eastern di
vision should be opened in its full extent, for the
purpose of returning and recording of surveys of
land in any part of the unappropriated estate cf the
said proprietors. And as it is at present impracti
cable to hold the said office at the city of Perth-
Amboy, the place it was formerly held at, I have
ordered and directed that a publick office be open
ed and held at Trenton, as a fate and convenient
place for the purpose: and I have appointed John
Stevens, jun. Esquire, Deputy Surveyor-General of
the said eastern division, in order to receive, return
and record all surveys cf land in the unappropriat
ed part of the said eastern division, to record all
deeds and other instruments, and fafely to keep all
maps, charts and draughts relative to the said pro
prietory estate, or any part thereof: of which all
concerned will take notice.
The Deputy Surveyors in the several counties are
to bring in their deputation, in order to be entered
in the said office; till which is done, their surveys
will not be admitted. I'ffRLING.

and carried off, amongst other things, the follow
ing, viz. One hundred sheets of Rhode-Ifland
Ante-money, each sheet containing fifty dollars, all
of which are dated 18th March, 1780, signed by
I Rumreill and A. Comrtock, countersigned 01
endorsed by Jno. Arnold, and the words " intcrert
paid one year" wrote on the body of each bill;
there is reason to believe that all those bills are in
number between one thoufind fix hundred and one
thousand nine hundred and fifty, and therefore the
fubferiber hopes if any money of this description be
tendered by any suspicious persons, proper notice
will be taken of the money, and persons pofTefTed

table spoons almost new, and a soup ladle marked
S. S. in cypher, and fix table spoons marked M. S,
