Trig daily c m Mints of injuries received by fpui
our msdici eg fold for Maredant'i Drops, pre
paid finely by me, requires the most feriou, attention,
as well in fafety to the patient, as my own interest.
Thole Impostures not only attempt to deceive by having
bills printed like mine, and bottles of rhe fame mould
and inscription, but are even daring enough to counter
feit my hand writing; some I have punished, notwith
standing which, the fame mal-praftices are continued ;
others ule more caution bv vending medicines under the
names of MERRDENT,MERIDEN T,NORDON,fc.
and Several make use of chair own names,alledging their
being affi^ants bo me. Can it be possible for any man to
thinly mt so weak, as to disclose such a valuable feerpt
to my servants, score es, ecially (hose of so menial a fort
as to be employed in the distribution of pamphlets, pack
ing upa d delivering boxes at the different inns, with eve

PROCLAMATION.
0/ H REAS there is great reason to believe
VV that many Perlons, not only come into
this city, without any pass or permission, but
take up a residence here, without either their
names, chara&ers or occupations being re
ported at any public office.
In order therefore to remedy these irregula
rities, and prevent the like in future, it is
hereby ordered and directed, that all house
holders within the city, do give in at the
Office of Police, on or before the 19th infant,
the names and descriptions of such persons as
are at present, or may become within that
time, lodgers in their refpedive habitations;
and that from and after th m -said 19th instant,
all strangers who may come into this city do
immediately, on their arrival, report them
selves to the Office of Police, where they will
receive certificates (provided their pretentions
be well founded) to entitle them to take up
their abode. And all inhabitants are hereby
ftridly forbid to receive into their houses any
Grangers, as lodgers, except such as can pro
duce the required certificate; and are further
enjoined to report the names of those that may
be so admitted, to the said Office of Police,
within twenty four hours, after admission, in
order that their refpedive abodes may be duly
registered.
It is also ordered and direded that all ma
tters of ships and vessels, coming into this
port, do on their arrival, deliver er the Office
of Police, true and entire lifts of their passen
gers and letters: None will be admitted to an
entry at the Superintendant's Office, who can
not produce a certificate of having done so ;
and they are likewise ftrialy forbid to receive
on board, on their departure from hence, any
passengers not having the accustomed passports
from the Commandant.
Any perfan or persons transgressing the a
bove rules and regulations will be considered
as difaffeded, or at least fufpecious characters,
a*d be fubjed to imprifonmeut, and such pe
nalties, as upon conviction, may be adjudged
them.
