RUN AWAY from the fubferiber, since the

was born in the Weft-Inches, speaks good French

knock knees. Whoever will apprehend the said
fellow, and take him to the Warden of the Work
house, or to the fubferiber, at No. 95, Broad

to forbid all persons whatsoever from harbouring

cuted by the law.
DE LA CANTREE & SELLES.
To the PUBLIC.
THE utility of MAGAZINES, as fepdfitories
of knowledge, and the happy means of cir
culating among all orders of society, the benefits
which accrue from the cultivation of the human
mind, has induced a society of gentlemen, to offer
the following proposals for preparing and printing,
on the firft Monday of every'month, a periodical
publication, under the title of
The American LYCeEUM,
O R
UNIVERSAL MAGAZINE,
O F
Knowledge and Pleasure.
'i,. That each Magazine shall contain forty pages
in octavo; to be printed on a fine paper, with a good
type, and delivered to the fubferiber s inthis city on the
day of publication.
2d. If adequate encouragement is given to this
work, the editors purpose to cinbellifi it with maps,
biographic portraits, and other descriptive copper-plates.
gd. That the Magazine shall be sent, for fubferi
bers, not refding in Philadelphia, to any convenient
place they may direst.
4th. That the price of fubjeription be Three
Dollars per annum; One Dollar and an Half, to be
advanced atthe time of fabferibing, and the remainder
at the end of fix months.
sth. Any gentleman fabferibing for twelve maga
zines, for himfelf or neighbour, shall be entitled to
thirteen.
6th. Good allowance will be made tb those who buy
to fell again.
In an undertaking upon so extensive so and
liberal a plan, the editors, aware of the difficulties
which attend it, cannot but be solicitous for the
afliftance of every friend to polite and philosophic
literature: They have therefore opened a reservoir
for the reception of the gratuitous aids of men of
genius and Icifure: whose contributions will be
received with thanks, and attended to with punctu
ality. It may be necessary, however, to premise,
that the editors are determined to preserve their
publications uncontaminated by the feuds and dog
mas of party: Though such political disquisitions
as are inspired by the amor patrice, and tend to the
improvement and happiness of society, will ever
be received with distinguished refpc&.
The intention of the editors being directed im
mediately to the advancement of knowledge, upon
a just, moral, and clear foundation, if, in the pro
gress of their work, the fallibility of human nature
should appear, a friendly admonition will, at all
times, meet their Sincere acknowledgment: But,
they now beg to have it understood, that no pro
vocation shall ever induce them to degrade a Ma
gazine, established upon such principles, into the
contemptible vehicle of vague and unprofitable
controversy.
It is hoped, that an early and liberal fubfeription
will enable the editors to compleat their plan, and
to deliver the firft Number of the Magazine (which
is ready for the pfefs) on the firft Monday in sane.
Subferiptions are taken in at Mr. Bradford's, in

Tie teeth depends in a great meafare on the care and.
treatment of them in early life. The origin and for

preservation depends generally on the affiance of art

HAYM SALOMAN,
'Broker to the Office of Finance,
HAVING procured a licence for excercifing the
employment of an Auctioneer, in the city of
New-York, has now opened for the reception of
every species of merchartdife, his house, No. 22,
Wall-street, lately occupied by Mr. Anthony
Bleeker, (one of the bed ftands.in the citv); and
every branch of business, which in the ftnalleft
degree, appertains to the profeffions of Factor,
Auctioneer and Broker, will be tranfaTed in it,
with that fidelity, dispatch and punctuality, which
has hitherto chafa&erifed his dealings.
The house, in point of convenience and fituatiori,
is exceedingly well calculated for the different kinas
of business abovementioned; and he thinks it
almoit unnecessary to allure those who may favctir
it with their orders, that the ftrideft attention shall
be paid to them, and the utmost care and solicitude
employed to promote their interests.
The nature of his business enables him to make
remittances to any part of the world, with peculiar
facility ; and this he hopes will operate considerably
in his favour, with those who live ata distance.
A desire of being more extensively uftful, and of
giving universal fatisfa&ion to the public, are among
his principal motives for opening this house, and
shall be the great leading principle of its tranfa&ions.
By being Broker to the office of Finance, and
honoured with its confidence, all those funis have
palled through his bands, which the generosity of
the French Monarch, and the affection of the mer
chants of the United Provinces, prompted them to
furnilh us with, to enable us to support the expence
of the war, and which have so much contributed to
its fuccefsful and happy termination. This is a
circumstance which has established his credit and
reputation, and procured him the confidence of the
public—a confidence which it shall be his study and
ambition to merit and increase, by sacredly perform
ing all his engagements.
i he business will be conducted upon the most
liberal and extensive plan, under the firm of Hayn;
Saloman and facob Mordecai.
