Fruitful as America is—the growth
of complaint is perhaps the most pro
lific. One day it is complained that
the credit of the United States is an
nihilated —the next, the complaint is,
that our country is ruined, because the
credit of government is so well eftab
liffied, that the Secretary of the Trea
fbry is enabfed to negociate a loan of
money to discharge the expenses on
the civil lift.
Notwithstanding the ''dreary phan
"toms" which have been created about
Standing Armies, experience has shewn
us, that the soldiery of France have
been the firft to enlist under the ban
ners of Freedom —

be this the test —
Tis from Experience that we reason
heft."

fie compassion of the humane in this

vanced in her pregnancy, was a few
days since fafely delivered of a dozen
of Shawls and a number of other arti
cles —a gentleman from this town,
who had loft the (halls, ailing as man
midwife. She had reached Newbury
port before (he was thus happily deli
vered of the fruits of her illicit and
ingenious trade.

a considerable deputation of the mem
bers ; and long before he reached the
city, was met by an immense con
course of people, who infilled on tak
ing the horses from his carriage, and
in that manner conducted him into the
Hotel. Here he addressed the citi
zens in a most pathetick speech —con
gratulated them on the return of or

long deceived the King were fled from
fris presence, and he permitted to
shew to his fubjeds his love and
favour. He return'd amidit the shouts
of thousands—which affeded him
much.
The Nobles were entirely defeated
—and order is restored.

^PROCLAMATION
For a general Thanksgiving.
TH E season returning
loaded with the boun
ty, and manifefting the mu
nificent hand of the Great
Creator, who hath been
the constant and merciful
Protector & Supporter
of us and our ancestors, calls
upon us, at this time, to ren
der Him our annual & pub
lic,ribute of GRATITUDE
and PRAISE.
I Therefore—purfuant to
a vote of the Legislature of
this State, appointing Thurs
day the Twenty-Sixth Day of
November next, TO BE obser
ved AS A DAY OF PUBLIC
THANKSGIVING thro
out this State, and by and
with the advice of Council,
issue this Proclamation,
earnestly exhorting Minis
ters and People, of every
denomination, to assemble
on that Day, and with devout
and grateful hearts to adore
JOHN SULLIVAN, Esq.
The amendments by coffipromife
between the two Houses, will, I ex
ped get through. The Senate have
this day struck out " Sufquehannab" in
the Residence Bill, arid inserted
" Germantown, near Philadelphia,"
with this condition; that the build
ings be ere,died free of expense to the
Union. This, I think is making a
more eligible filiation and a better
bargain. "I somewhat. expeft that
Congress will not be up until the
middle of next week.
