A Proclamation.
Reflecting on theirpaft condua towards
a Bounteous and Gracious God—and con
traftiog the ungrateful Returns which the, make
to Him, with the mercies and favors which they
constantly enjoy under his Divine influence and
indulgence—The People may be led to ingenu
ous Repentance for a!l their Sins, and to Sincere
Contrition for their numerous Errors and De
parture from the paths of Righteotifnefs & Duty,
To induce a serious consideration of these
ideas,,*! have thought proper to appoint, and do
hereby appoint FRIDAY the Third Day of
April next, to be set apart and observed thro'-
out this State as a day of solemn and sincere
HUMILIATION, FASTING and PRAYER:
And I do earnestly intreat both Ministers and
People, most seriously and devoutly to attend to
the Duties of the Day; so that, by Divine Affifc
Zhce, a Fast may be kept, such as the Lord our
God may delight to own and accept ; and such
as He may be pleased to bless with the influen
ces of his Gracious Spirit ; whereby we may be
led, not only to sincere Repentance for past Sins,
but to solemn and sincere Refolutions,by the help
of Divine Grace, to conform dur future lives to
the Requirements of His sacred Law, and the
Rules of his most Holy Religion. Under the
fame gracious and benign Influence, we may
be led to lament the peculiar Sins and Follies
of the present Day ; our increasing Departure
from the Religion, the Love, and acknowledg
ment of the God of our Fathers ; out impiety,
^rofanenefs, Infidelity, and negle& of the Gos
pel of Grace, and its Divine Ordinances and In
stitutions ; to confider and reflect upon the aw
ful consequences of our Inattention to the Du
ties, the Privileges, and Benefits of the Sa ^ath,
with the prevailing Influence of this Neglect
Upon the Morals, the Virtue, and Manners of
the People at large, and more especially upon the
Views, the Hopes and Expectations of the
rising Generation ; to lament the growing Dif
pofitioii to Divisions and Opposition of Senti
ments, to party Disputes and Animofitics,
which tend to weaken and destroy that Spirit
of Love, Harmony, and locial Benevolence,
which ought to be our Practice and Delight ;
and the Influences of which are so conducive to
our general and individual Happiness.
At the fame time, to offer our sincere and
ardent Prayers to Almighty God, through our
Great Mediator, for the gracious pardon of all
our,Sins and Offices ; for the Influences of his
Holy Spirit to direct our future Conduct, for
the more general Revival of true Religion, and
a greater attention to its Interests and Duties ;
for his Blcffing on the means of Learning and
Science ; that God would prosper us in all our
Interests and Concerns, both public and private ;
direct the Councils of our State, and animate
all Orders of Men to a faithful Difeharge of
their Several Duties and Offices; prosper the
laudable pursuits of the People, in their Uuf
bandry, Manufactures, Trade, Navigation, Com&-
merce, Arts, and general Industry, continue
Health in our Dwellings ; give us reace in our
Borders ; and influence our Minds under the
enjoyment of all the Blessings of his kind Provi
dence, to correspondent Returns of Gratitude
and Praise.,
Also, that He would graciously superintend
the general Interests of our nation ; continue to
us the Enjoyment of Peace, with its numerous
Advantages and rich Blessings; direct and har
monize our Councils ; prosper and inereafe our
Mean, of Defence ; teach u, to know and ref
pe& our National Honor ; lead the People to
that Harmony of Sentiment and Union of Ac
tion, which may produce a genuine Spirit of
National Character and Dignity, truly indepen
dent of all foreign Predilect ions or Aversions;
help us to know and acknowledge, that Righte
ousness exaltefh a nation, but that Sjn, Disorder
and Licentiousness are the sure reproach of any
People ; influence the Nation to reflect and con
fider, chat, while Seeking foreign Connexions
and distant support, we should never forget,
that the Lord our God, the God Os out Fathers,
is the Rock of our Salvation, our Strong Tower
and Defence against every Evil; and under
this Impression, and trUfting to this Divine
Munition, that He would teach us<to place
Confidence in His Protection, and to cherish a
Hope, that amide prevailing Tumults and Con

FEDERAL GOVERNMENT, THIRTEENTH YEAR.

in New-Hampffiire.

liA, and two Merchants of other nations, all of
whom (hall be men of known good character,
and the English (hall be chosen or fele&ed by
the English merchants ; to whom lhal lbe added
one of the Members of the Imperial College of
Commerce in St. Peterfturgh.
11. All matters that come undgr their cogniz
ance, Ihall be adjusted comformably to the ac
customed rules and eSlabliffied usage in trade ;
they are to decide among thcmfelves by a ma
jority of votes, upon matters under difeuffion ;
but in case of any points, involving the interests
of the Ruffian Commerce, the opinion of his
Imperial Majesty's Counfellor of the College
cf Commerce is to fupercede the majority of
votes fubjed, however, to the concurrence of the
College of Commerce.
111. Every Britilh merchant resident in Rus

themselves visitors, Shall deliver to the Com
missioners, in writing, a statement rifall the bal

Shall, when required,deliver to the Commissioners

houses.
PROCLAMATION.
Os His IMPERIAL MAJESTY, the
Emperor &f alt th Rufiat, &c.
Whereas it has been represented by many
fubjeas of Russia, that large sums of money are
due to them from English Merchants refideut
in Russia, and that payment of such debts can
not be obtained ; his Imperial Majesty's Col
lege of Commerce, at St. Feterfburgh, by vir
tue of powers vested in them for the purpose of
promoting an adjustment and liquidation of the
debts due to the Ruffian merchants, have ap
pointed and-ordained an especial Commiflion,
or Board of Commissioners, for managing Eng
lish property, and they direct the said Board to
be constituted, and their operations and pro
ceedings to be guided by the following regula
tions ;
London, jan. io.
We yefterda, received the Paris Journal to
the 4th inclusive. The Moniteur of the rath
and 13th, the number being cOnfolidated, con
tains official copies of General Deffolles's dis
patches, announcing the successes of the army of
the Rhine, and of the convention by which it
was followed General Deffolles Slates as induce
ments for the conclusion of the armistice, the
possibility of General Ilcllegarde detaching
from the army in Italy, a body of troops to join
those in the Tyrol, and falling on the rear, in
tercepting the Communications with France.
They had not heard of the commencement of
hostilities In Italy, and it feenis to be inferred
that Brune was rather tardy.
The conditions of the Armistice, however;
ire so favorable to the enemy, they require no
other motive than the advantages they offer.
The French having obtained entire possession of
the Tyrol, having united their armies of Ger
many and Italy by a complete line of polls, and
behig in poffemon of every Strong place behind
them, would be enabled to renew the war with
almost a certainty of success. Refpeding the
permanent fortfeffes which the French have got
into their hands, provision has been made that
they Shall be restored in their present Slate, if
ioftilities are not renewed ; but if peace does
not follow, it fecms they will be left in the pow
er of the enemy to destroy them if they think
proper. The debouches of Feintlementz, Nau
ders, and other fortifications of this defcriptiorf
are left at the difpo^l of the French.
On the 27th the rrench made a vigorous at
tack upon the Austrian portions on the Minciw,
and with success. The paffagc, after a despe
rate engagement, was carried at Monzabanb,
and Molino. These places are between the
Lake di Garda and Mantua, lying nearer to the
former. On the 27th at one in the morning,
the head quarters were at Valegio, on the left
bank. The array is Slated in the official com
munication to the Legislative body, to blockade
Mantua. , The account given by Brune of the
bufinels, however, i, very Short, and not ,ery
explicit. It is eyident that much loss mud have
been fudained on both Sides. A great number
of superior officers are, dated to have been
wounded on the fide of the French. They cer
tainly gained their objed ;,nd had the war
continued, the army of the Rhine would have
experienced the benefit of the diveriion. From
Brune's difpatfi it appears that he intended to
IX. To defray the expence and management
of the Board of Commissioners, and for the Sala
ry of their Clerks and Agents, both debtors and
creditors Shall allow them one-half per cent up
on the amount of the refpedtive sums brought
under their considerations.
It Every Ruffian fubjedt, who has any
claim or demand upon an Englishman, of what
ever nature or kind it may be, or who is indebt
ed to a Eritilh fubjeft, Shall transmit an account
of the particulars of such debts or claims, to the
Commissioners, within four months from the
date of the publication of this Ordinance, in the
newspapers, and in default thereof, the Commis
sioners are not to take cognizance ofany claims
after that period.
V. The Commissioners are to dispose of ail
English effe&s now sequestered, and to receive
all balances of accounts, and to bring the whole
into one general mass. #
VI. The Ruffian fubjeas Shall receive out of
the fund of English property (collected a%bc
fore diredled,) after admission of the validity and
justness of the claimants, an equal dividend up
on their rerpeiftive demands, and fall fatisfadion.
VII. In case the fund of English property
does not prove adequate to the demand, of the
Ruffian creditors ; or that there Shall remain a
surplus, then the result shall be communicated co
the College of Commerce at St. Petersburg,
The Commissioners Shall not be accountable
or refponfibk for their decisions, nor Shall there
be any appeal from their determinations, either
by petitions or in any other way, on any ac
count whatever.
