Ptnnfylvania State Trials.
THE want of fufficient information of the
state trials of Gieat-Britain in the early
periods of that government is now lamented :
Hi herto there hath been one trial in the
state of Pennsylvania on impeachment : —and
herealfo it is to be regretted, that, being neg r
letted at the time, the public are now left with
out fufficient information on the fubjeft of that
trial, it is however in this work designed to ref
cuefwhat can be collefled thereof from sources
of indifputaple authority, so that the fame shall
be preserved from oblivion.
Another impeachment and the second is now
depending. An officer is charged by the late
House of Reprefentattves, who hath for many
yeari been largely confided in by this state, and
hath long been at the head of the financial de
partment of the fame, and it imports the citi
zens to know hisconduft, and thecircumftanccs
which may be brought foiward on his trial.
In this work the Editor will be careful to
state the fads, as they may be brought forward,
and to lay all the evidence and papers before
the public.—With this view—
The following Terms are refpefifully
fuhmitted to the Public :

the length ®f the present trial, the fire of the

But the price (hall not exceed that of fomeof

111. It will contain all the preliminaries and in
cidental circumstances that may occur during
the trial of John Nicholfon, Esquire, Comp
troller-General of this commonwealth, with
thearguments of counsel oa both fides, together
with the articles of impeachment, and the
pleas and replications at large, the several re
solutions of the two branches of the state Le
gislature, refpe&ing this impeachment, and
the final decision of the SENATE refpedting
that officer.
To which will be prefixed, as much as can be
collected from authentic documents, of the im
peachment, trial, and aequital of the late Francis
Hopkinfon, Esquire, Judge of the Court of
Admiralty for the state of Pennsylvania, during
the late war, never before pnblifbed.
No money will be required before the deli
very of the book.
Subscriptions will be received by Francis
