r I HE council of proprietors of the. eaflern divifi
-1 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 said eastern di
vision should be opened in its full extent, for the
pprpofe of returning and recording of surveys of
land in any part of the unappropriated estate of 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 fafe and convenient
place for the purpose: and I have appointed John
Stevens, jun. Enquire, Deputy Surveyor-General of
the said eastern division, in order to receive, return
and record all surveys of 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 fevcral 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. STIRLING.

N. B. It is supposed that he was taken by the
fame persons that robbed the post of the mail.
ON Sunday the twenty-fourth June, 1782, a
bout 10 o'clock in the evening, the dwelling
houfe of the fubferiber, at Union Farm, in Hun
terdon county, New-Jersey, was surrounded by a
party of about eighteen armed men, some of whom
were painted and otherwise disguised ; they confin
ed the family, most of whom were females, am.
plundered the defies, trunks, closets, and chests,
and carried off, amongst other things, the follow
ing, viz. One hundred sheets of Rhode-Bland
ftate-rnoney, each flieet containing fifty dollars, all
of which are dated 18th Match, I^o, signed by
'lßumreill and A. Comßock, countersigned or
'endorfed by Jno. Arnold, and the words “ interest
paid one year" wrote on the body of yeach bill;
there is season to believe that all those bills are in
number between one thousand fix hundred and one
thousand nine hundred and fifty, and therefore the
fubferiber hopes if any money of this description be
tendered by any suspicions persons, proper notice
will be taken of the money, and persons possessed
of it, and of them who may offer fix plain silver
table spoons almost new, and a soup ladle marke r.
S. S. in cypher, and fix table spoons marked M. j
fix tea spoons marked M. S. in cypher, fix dir 0
marked R. W. and a pair of bow tea-tongs, a neat
silver watch that runs on a diamond, with a triple
case, and maker's name Pet. Polghman, London,

and gold chain, a parcel of New-Jersey and Pem
fylvania state money, and about fifty dollars in gol®

I will pay One Hupdred Guineas as a reward
