D Davis Bill, a lad in the 18th year
of Jiis age, left his Guardian in Newfane,
State ot Vermont ; and by what he had
said to his mates before be went away,
he was uneaf, with his Guardian, and
intended to keep out of his way till he
was of age ; that he had thoughts either
of going to lea, or to the eastern parts of
the United States. But as almost one
year has expired since he has been of age,
(if living) and no intelligence has ever
been gained of the lad since he went a
way, the disconsolate mother is anxious
to gain information of her son if possible ;
as she has been bereaved of her bulband,
and three children with this one, and but
one left to condole,with her in her afflic
tions.
^He was an active, sprightly lad, of
middling stature, dark complexion, with
brown hair and eyes.

From the (N. Y.) Daily Gazette.
Mtffrs. M'Lean & Lang,
YOUR " Communication" of this
morning contains a very erroneous
Battement of the affair which took place
at the Coffee-houfe rdpediog Dr. Ro
mayne. There was no such cry as " beat,
kick and throw him down ;" neither did
any person strike the Dodor, till HE
FIRST laid about him with his umbrel
la. I;heard Dr. Romayne fay th/ he
wished to fee Mr. Bleecker refpeding
the letter which was published in the
newspaper, and he was in t^e ad of
moving towards that part of the coffee
room where Mr. Bleecker was, when the
citizens (supposing that an altercation
might take place fr^m two persons meet
ing together under such circumffances,
and the order and peace of the Exchange
thereby disturbed) railed a general cry of
OUT WITH HIM, OUT WITH HIM !,
and the son of Galen was accordingly
hustled out of the coffee room.
Was there any thing improper in this ?
Surely not. What treatment the Dodor
received afterwards, he brought en
tirely upon himfelf, by singling a very
refpedable merchant of this city, at
whom he made a blew with bis umbrel
-la, and by otherwise striking the indivi
duals who were near him. And further,
let me add, that the man who pradifes
that bale, cowardly, and brutish Virgin
ia mode of attack by biting, # Y # and
endeavoring to gouge, is unfit for soci
ety, and deserves the execrations of man
kind. SPECTATOR.

Martiniburgh, (Virg.) Dec. 14:
Extrad of a letter from a gentleman at ,mej
borough. South Wfern Territor,, to the
Editor of this paper, dated Nov. 4.
" Mr. Wm. Blount, the late Gov.
of this State, passed through here a few
days since on his way from, Northcaroli
na to the feat of government, and relates
the following as being his real intentions,7
when he engaged in the mad (peculating
bufiaefs :— He fays, that early last spring,
he was applied to by an English gentle
man of confcquence, who informed Mr.
Blount, that application had been made
by some Indians and Indian interpreters
' to the British miniver, to undertake an
lexpedition against the Floridas and Lou
'ifiana, in conjunction with any force
which the British could assist them with
from Canada ; and that they would fa
ther have Mr. Blount to head them, than
any other person, as the* foppofed he
was well acquainted with Indian affairs,
and in whom they had the most perfed
confidence ; and the gentleman wished
I to know if Mr. Blount would agree to
take the command ; and further said, he
would undertake te supply Mr. Blount
with four British frigates, laden with
military Bores, to meet him at Pensacola
in a certain time. Mr. Bloutt desired
the gentleman to give him three or four
days to confidcr ot i; and he would give
him ananiwer. On the gentleman's re
turning, Mr. Blount said he would agree
and furnifh some troops from this Bate,
provided the British government would
agree to let him fill the presidential chair,
and they would leave blanks for him to
fill up all the commissions in the new
conquered country that was acceded to ;
and Mr. B. further fays, if he was only
2© years younger, he would yet put his
scheme into action, and that some enter
prising fellow will embrace the opportu
nity yet. It is also reported here that
the Executive had issued orders & the
commandant of the trumps, to prevent
Mr. Zachariah Cox from drfcending the
Tennessee Rivet, as far as the Muscle
Shoals, where he contemplates making
a settlement. This information may all
be depended on as coming from Mr.
Blount himfelf.'
