New-York, Mr. Bingham, of Philadelphia,
Mr. Low, of New-York, Mr. M'Connel, ot
Philadelphia, Mr. Smith, of South-Carolin3,
Mr. Mason, of Ma(T«chufetts, and Mr. Watts,

Attest. Edward Fox, Sec'ry.
Y.xtrafl of a letter from Holland, dated Aug. zo.
" Notwithstanding what may be supposed the
ardent desire of the Emptefs of Rulfia, it
not appear that under her auspices the Rufliai:
armies will ever becjmc conquerors of Conlhin
tinople, as threaten-d. On the contrary, then
is every profpecft of a speed« peace tat in/> place
between the Aulirians, Ruliians,and Ottomans.
The hopes of a counterrevolution in France art
more and moreon thedecline, and although thi
King of Sardinia is making immense waiMkr
preparations in favour of supporting the atifto
cratic exiles from France, and restoring the cK
despotic government, the Emperor of German;
has declined giving them any effe&ual afiiftance,
It may reasonably be concluded therefore, tha
the powers of Europe will either not intermeddli
at all in the affairs of France, or if they do
It will be by a negociation rather than by violen
measures."
Jt having been fuggefttd to the Editor oj
the National Gazette that IVednejdays and Sa
turdays are the mijl frequent days of
publications in this capital, he las cn that actoun
varied a little from bis original flan, andchanfa
his days ofpublijbing to Monday and Thuifdav,
Poetical Addkess to the Public of the
United States.
THIS age is so fertile of mighty events
That people complain, with some reason
no doubt j
Besides the time loft, and besides the expence,
With reading the papers they're fairly worn out:
The paji is no longer an object of care,
The prejent consumes all the time they car
spare.—
Thus the reader, but still he on,
With his pence and his paper unwiiling to part,
" i'ees the world pa (Ting, men going and fc vnc,
uj vine riding in coaches, and some in a cart :
For a peep at .the faice a Jubfcrlption he'li
g"< ve i
Pvcvolutions must happen—that Printers ma)
live.
~cr a {hare of your favor we aim with the reft —
To enliven the scene we'll exert all our /kill j
Whit we have to impart lLall be some of the
best,
And Multua in Parvo our text—if >ou will :
Since we never admitted aclaufe in our Creec
That the greatest employment ot lite h —
to read.
The King of the French, and the Queen of the
North
At the head of the play for the season we fin J :
From the spark that we kindled a flame ha:
gone forth
To expand thro* the world and enlighten man
kind :
With a code of new do&rines the univerft
rings,
And Tbvmui is preaching strange lermons tc
kings.
Thus launched as we are on the ocean of news.
In hopes that your plealureour pains will repay.
All honest endeavours the author will use
To furniih a feaft for the grave and the gay j
At least he'll eflay such a track to purlue
That the world (hall approve—and his news
(hall be true.
