He is a fiddler, a bold insolent fellow and fond of drink. about 24 years old, large & strong made, has a fresh scar on his left foot occasioned by the cut of an ax, the wound was not cured when he left home. It is likely he will be lurking about Lexington, as he has a brother in the possession of Col. Hart of that place, he also has acquaintances at and near Madison and Shelby court houses. He is armed, and will probably resist if an attempt should be made to ap- prehend him. I will give the a- bove reward to any person who will deliver him to me either dead or alive, or produce a well authen- ticated certificate to me of their having killed him.

Mercer, July 29. 3t

Anniversary of American Independence.
The birth day of American Liberty was celebrated in this City with a funeral solemnity. It appeared more like the interment of freedom than the anniversary of its birth. The countenances of the citizens generally appeared dejected, and the joy and festivity which usually characterized the day seemed to be superseded by sadness. It appeared more like a day of mourning than that of rejoicing. The day was closed by the exhibition of a transparent painting with the figure of John Jay upon it. The figure was in full stature, dressed in a robe, holding in his right hand a pair of scales, containing in one scale "American liberty and independence," kicking the beam, in the other "British gold," in extreme preponderance; in his left hand a Treaty of Amity, Commerce and Navigation, which he extended to a group of senators, who were grinning with pleasure and grasping at the Treaty. From the mouth of the figure issued these words contained in a label, "Come up to my price and I will sell you my Country." The procession began in Kensington and moved with great solemnity down Front Street to Callowhill Street, and down Second to Market Street, from thence to Front Street, and back again to Kensington. A great concourse of people attended the procession, and scarcely a whisper was heard until its return, when the shouts of repeated huzzas interrupted the solemnity of the scene. The figure was burned at Kensington amid the acclamation of hundreds of citizens. Never was a procession more peaceably conducted, no noise, no riot. The citizens seemed to vie with each other in decorous behaviour. Thus ended the procession, and thus terminated the anniversary of American independence.
LONDON, May 14.
On Saturday last the Friends of People decided upon the plan of Parliamentary Reform, which they intend to propose to the public. It is founded upon the principle of giving householders a right to vote for members of Parliament.
May 19.
What the plans and prospects of the Emperor are we know not. We hear of no large reinforcements having been sent to the Rhine, and the only movement which the Austrians have made, has been from Mulheim, towards the Rhine. This movement it was supposed was for the purpose of attempting the Rhine—a supposition which, when we consider the great inferiority of the Imperial to the Republican force, does not appear to be well founded.
What is the plan of the British Cabinet? There is a report of a descent which the ministers have determined, or at least threatened to make on the coast of France. Such a report would not deserve to be mentioned seriously, if we did not know that there is no project too absurd for some men to carry into execution.
NEW-YORK, July 4.
Mr. JAY took his oath of office as GOVERNOR of the state of New-York, and Mr. VAN RENSSELAER as LIEUTENANT-GOVERNOR, last Wednesday, without much ceremony—We heard no firing of guns, nor ringing of bells on this SOLEMN occasion.
It was currently reported on Wednesday, that a petition, which had several thousands of names upon it, is handed round at Philadelphia, praying the President of the United States to withhold his signature from the TREATY.
It is also said, that the French minister plenipotentiary has already sent off dispatches to France on the subject of the TREATY.
Whilst the Treaty was under discussion in the Senate, the following Propositions were brought forward and respectively offered as substitutes to the resolution of Ratification which ultimately prevailed:
Mr. BURR'S MOTION.
That the further consideration of the Treaty concluded at London, the 16th of November 1794, be postponed, and that it be recommended to the President of the United States to proceed without delay, to further friendly negotiation with his Britannic majesty, in order to effect alterations in the said treaty, in the following particulars:
That the 9th, 10th, and 25th Articles, and so much of the 25th as relates to the shelter of refuge to be given to the armed vessels of States or Sovereigns at war with either party, be expunged.
2d. Art. That no privilege or right be allowed to the settlers or traders mentioned in the 2d Article, other than those which are secured to them by the treaty of 1794, and existing laws.
3d Art. That the 3d Article be expunged, or so modified that the citizens of the United States may have the use of ALL rivers, ports and places within the territories of his Britannic majesty in North America, in the same manner as his subjects may have of those of the United States.
6th Art. That the value of the negroes and other property, carried away contrary to the 7th article of the treaty of 1783, and the loss and damage sustained by the United States, by the detention of the posts, be paid for by the British government; the amount to be ascertained by the commissioners who may be appointed to liquidate the claims of the British creditors.
12th Art. That what relates to the west India trade, and the profits and conditions thereof in the 12th article, be expunged or be rendered more favorable to the United States, and without any restraint on the exportation in vessels of the United States of any articles, not the growth, produce or manufacture of the said islands of his Britannic majesty.
15th Art. That no clause be admitted which may restrain the United States from reciprocating benefits by discriminating between foreign nations, in their commercial arrangements, or prevent them from increasing the tonnage, or other duties on British vessels on terms of reciprocity, or in a stipulated ratio.
21st Art. That the subjects or citizens of either party be not restrained from accepting commissions in the army or navy of any foreign power.
Mr. TAZEWELL'S MOTION.
That the President of the United States be informed, that the Senate will not consent to the ratification of the treaty of amity, commerce and navigation, between the United States and his Britannic majesty, concluded at London the 19th of November, 1794, for the reasons following:
1. Because so much of the treaty as was intended to terminate the complaints, flowing from the inexecution of the treaty of 1783, contains stipulations that were not rightfully or justly requirable, of the United States and which are, both impolitic and injurious to their interest; and because the treaty has not secured that satisfaction from the British government, for the removal of negroes, in violation of the treaty of 1783, to which the citizens of the United States were justly entitled.
2. Because the rights of indivi-
dual States, are by the ninth article of this treaty, unconstitutionally invaded.
3. Because however impolitic or unjust it may generally be, to exercise the power prohibited by the 10th article, yet it rests on legislative discretion, and ought to be prohibited by treaty.
4. Because so much of the treaty as relates to commercial arrangements between the parties, wants that reciprocity, upon which alone such like arrangements ought to be founded, and will operate ruinously to the American commerce and navigation.
5. Because the treaty prevents the United States from the exercise of that control over their commerce and navigation, as connected with other nations, which might better the condition of their intercourse with friendly nations.
6. Because the treaty asserts a power in the president and Senate, to control and even annihilate the Constitutional right of the Congress of the United States over their commercial intercourse with foreign nations.
7. Because if the construction of this treaty should not produce an infraction of the treaties now subsisting between the United States and their allies, it is calculated to excite collisions which may not operate beneficially to the United States.
Notwithstanding the Senate will not consent to the ratification of this treaty, they advised the president of the United States to continue his endeavors, by friendly discussion with his Britannic majesty, to adjust all the real causes of complaint, between the two nations.
These propositions were both rejected by a vote of twenty to ten. We are informed, that the members who voted in the affirmative were,
Bingham, Bradford, Cabot, Elsworth, Frelenhuysen, Foster, Gunn, Henry, King, Latimer, Paine, Potts, Read, Ross, Rutherford, Strong, Turnbull, Vining, Livermore and Marshall.
In the negative, Brown, Bloodworth, Burr, Butler, Jackson, Langdon, Martin, Mason, Robinson, and Tazewell.

WANTED,
To purchase a Water-Lot, in a central part of the city, not less than 200 feet front on the water, and about 250 or 300 feet deep, for the purpose of erecting a British East-India company.
Also, a Mechanic or mechanics, who will contract to erect a substantial British building on the same, 7 stories high, agreeable to the plan to be given.
Also wants to purchase or charter, a number of British vessels from 100 to 300 tons, to carry provisions and lumber to the British west indies, any person or persons wishing to treat on the above proposals, by leaving their name at the bar of the Tontine, will be attended to immediately.
New-York, July 3d, 1795, and the 1st year of the Treaty.
By a gentleman from Head Quarters, as late as the 29th ultimo, we are informed that the treaty was nearly completed: to receive the signatures of the chiefs to the articles was all that was undone at that time. The boundary line is described as follows, viz. Beginning at the mouth of Cuyahaga river and running up the same to the fork, thence to a crossing place on Muskungum two miles northward of where fort Lawrence formerly stood—thence thro' the dividing country between the heads of Glaize and St. Mary's rivers and that of the Miami of the Ohio to a place known by the name of Lara-
mier's store, which is near the Miami, and is the southerly end of the carrying place between it and the St. Mary's river—thence by a line directly to fort Recovery, which stands on the ground where St. Clair was defeated—thence by a direct line to the Ohio, immediately opposite the mouth of Kentucky river. There are a variety of reservations made for ports and trading places, as well as that of 150,000 acres opposite the rapids of Ohio, the French villages at and near Vincents, and including a considerable quantity of land round Detroit.
All the tribes have been fully represented at this treaty, who were objects of it. Those Shawanees and Lower Wyandots whom the British agents had purposely kept from coming forward earlier, would arrive at head quarters on the evening of the day our informant left that place.—The Indians receive 20,000 dollars in goods at present, and 8000 dollars annually.

AT a meeting of the trustees of the town of Lexington, the third day of August, 1795: Whereas it is represented to this board, the public springs in this town are much injured by the practice of washing at them.

TAKE NOTICE,
THAT on the 11th day of October next, I, the undersigned will attend at a tree marked IR, NR, TD, WC, EC, N° 15, standing by a spring and called for in my entry of 1000 acres on the waters of the Beech fork, adjoining George Hart and William Combs' pre-emptions, and proceed to take depositions to prove the identity of the said tree and spring, agreeably to the directions of an act of the General Assembly, entitled, 'An Act to ascertain the boundaries of lands and for other purposes.'

Public Notice.
THAT on the 10th day of May 1780, I located by virtue of a Land-Office Treasury warrant, 400 acres of land on a dividing ridge of the waters of Stoner, in the now county of Clarke: Beginning on the east side of the said creek (now known by the name of Woodruff) that empties into the main South fork of Licking below the Red lick, (now called Bramble's lick,) and about one mile down the said creek from Thomas Winn's North-East corner and running Westwardly for quantity across the creek.—That on the 21st day of May 1784, I caused the said entry to be surveyed according to location and have since obtained a patent therefor. And as the testimony respecting the said beginning depends on persons now living, in order to perpetuate their testimony I obtained from the County court of Clarke, at their last court, an order appointing commissioners to examine and take the depositions of such persons as I might judge proper, by virtue of an act of Assembly entitled 'An Act to ascertain the boundaries of lands and for other purposes.'—All whom it may concern therefore, are desired to take notice, that on the 2d day of September next, I shall attend with the commissioners appointed and sundry witnesses at the said beginning of my 400 acre survey as aforesaid when & where I shall take the depositions of the said witnesses, in order to establish the same and do such other acts therein, as may appear necessary and as the said law directs.

LONDON, April 27.
The Dey of Algiers, it is said, asks two millions of Piastres from the Americans as the price of peace. Sidi Ali Bacha, the Tripoline Usurper, who had besieged the Castle of Tripoly for two months, has been obliged to take refuge with his partisans on board of some Neapolitan vessels.
The people of Hanover hold the French emigrants in our pay in such deception, that they will not suffer them to be quartered among them, and even in marching thro' the country, a guard of Hanoverian troops is necessary for their protection.
Accounts from Warsaw brought by the last mail mention, that in consequence of the late movements observed among the Russian troops, it was supposed they were to march towards the Turkish confine under Gen. Suwarrows.
May 11.
The ship Abbey, from Cape-Coast, which she left on the first of March arrived at Liverpool, brings intelligence that the French have a second time scoured the coast of Africa, and done considerable more mischief than on their first visit.—Captain Brown, of the Princess Royal, captain Clough, of the Eliza, captain Bachup, of the Vulture, and captain Herd, of the Levant, came passengers in the Abbey—All their vessels were taken and destroyed by a French squadron, consisting of two 40 gun frigates, one sloop of war of 20 guns, and a corvette: they were all fully slaved, and valued at not less than 140,000l. What further damage has been done by this squadron is not yet known, but, from l'Angier to Saldana bay, a distance of 6000 miles, not a single English ship of war was to be seen.
The American brig Abigail, of Bolton, captain Pinkham, master, arrived at Coves from Havre-de-grace, which place he left on Thursday last, reports, that a few days before he failed, intelligence was received there from Paris, that peace was concluded between the king of Spain, and the French Republic, and the same was publicly proclaimed thro' the streets of Havre.
Captain Pinkham further says, that several large gun-boats are fitting out at Havre; that a new ship of fifty guns, had been launched there, was taking in her stores and guns when he came away, and was expected to sail from Havre in a few days.
May 14.
The money which the king of Prussia has received from this country, has been productive of two beneficial consequences to the monarch. It enabled him to assist in the conquest of Poland, and it has furnished him with the means of purchasing stores, ammunition &c. which will probably be used against this country.
Ten hundred thousand pounds a year are paid to the king of Sardinia, for which his majesty was to make a grand diversion in Italy. The only diversion which he has made has been to receive the money, and to laugh at us for our excess of folly and credulity.
NEW-YORK, July 16.
EXPRESS.
We stopped the press last even-
ing, to communicate to our fellow citizens the following important and very interesting piece of intelligence:—Mr. Pease passed this city at nine o'clock last evening EXPRESS, from our fellow citizens of Bolton, IN LEGAL TOWN MEETING ASSEMBLED, bearing the result of their deliberations on Friday and Monday last, to the PRESIDENT of the United States. The citizens of that town met on Friday, agreeably to notification, and appointed a committee of FIFTEEN to draw up resolutions which should express their sentiments, and adjourned till Monday last, on which day there was a numerous meeting, who unanimously adopted the resolutions of their committee, which REPROBATE Mr. Grenville's TREATY in the highest terms.
The following Republican Toasts (which we have selected for the purpose) drank the 4th of July, may serve to give an idea of the sentiments of the majority of the people, respecting Mr. Jay's Treaty, between America and Great Britain:
In Philadelphia—Stevens T. Mason*—May his manly patriotism be the imitation of every honest representative, and the disdain of dark proceedings entitle him to the plaudits of every true friend of Liberty.
A perpetual harvest to America—but clip wings, lame legs, the pip, and an empty crop to all Jays.
New-Castle—The ten patriotic Senators, who refused to ratify the British treaty.
John Jay—May he enjoy all the benefits of a Purgatory.
Wilmington—Stevens T. Mason, the Patriotic Senator of Virginia: may his example put to confusion those who wish to veil the public transactions in darkness.
The virtuous, patriotic and independent Minority of the Senate, who declined to return to the dominion of Great Britain.
The Coalition of Hypocritical Federalism and malignant Toryism, with its offspring Justice Jay's Treaty—may the the tria juncto in uno be speedily strangled by the genius of Liberty.
His excellency John Jay esq. governor of the state of New-York, general and commander in chief of all the militia and admiral of the Navy of the same, Dr. of Laws, &c. &c. late chief justice of the United States, Envoy extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary to the King of Great Britain—may he and his treaty be forever politically d—d.
New-York—The patriotic ten in the Senate of the United States, who were opposed to the late treaty in its present form. [5 cheers]
* Mr. Mason is member of the Senate, from Virginia, and voted against the ratification of the treaty, he also made the treaty public, contrary to the wishes of the Senate.
Extract of a letter from Havre, dated May 24.
"Last evening a courier arrived from Paris by whom we learn, that a mob of men and women, entered the hall of the convention and assaulted the deputies; cut off the head of Ferrand (one of the members) mounted it upon a pike and placed it before the president and members of the convention; one of the deputies was shot by the rioters who treated the national representatives with every mark of indignation.
"At this time when the convention was under the influence of the mob, they were forced, much against their will to pass several unjust and improper decrees, to set at liberty every person under arrest, and to outlaw all persons who were confined at the death of Ro-
bespierre, and who were set at liberty by his successors.
"Fortunately at this moment the national guards assembled, appeared in the hall of the convention, dispersed the rioters, and put several of them to the sword: by which means the convention was set at liberty.
As soon as the mob was repulsed, the national convention made a report of the decrees passed by force, and put under arrest several members who were friends of Robespierre and Leaders of Jacobins. They are—Aloite, Carpentier, Rhue, Prieur, de la Maine, Duquetnoy, Romme and several others, who were sent immediately to the revolutionary tribunal for trial.
"At the same time the courier left Paris the general was then beating, and the national guard under arms."
PHILADELPHIA, July 4.
The English papers mentions, that the sum which Great Britain ought to pay for the capture of neutral vessels, amounts to seven millions of dollars! Of this, a very considerable part is due to the citizens of the United States.
Extract of a letter from an eminent merchant in London, dated the 16th of May last.
"You will find by the Morning Chronicle of this day, which with some other newspapers we enclose, that the Algerines are again let loose on your trade; this event will operate to raise the insurance on American vessels bound to the southward.
BALTIMORE, July 15.
Captain White, of the schooner Barbara, arrived a few days since, informs, that the only place held by the British in the island of St. Vincent's was the town of Kingstown, where the inhabitants had embarked on board the shipping in the harbor, momentarily expecting to quit the place—that admiral L. torey had arrived at Martinique in a frigate from England, having been chased three days by the Concorde and 2 other French frigates that were cruising to Windward of Barbadoes—and that the Partridge French sloop of war had been taken by a 74, and sent into Martinique. This is probably the vessel stated to be taken by the Van Guard.
Captain Rogers, arrived at Boston the 7th instant in 33 days from Liverpool, informs, that a Mr. Bradbury an American, informed our consul there, that he came thro' the straits in an English brig, and was several times boarded by Algerine corsers; one small squadron said that during the last short cruise, they had captured five Americans. One hour before capt.

TWO LIKELY
NEGRO MEN RUN AWAY FROM THE SUB- SCRIBER, Living in Mecklenberg county, Virginia:—
ONE of them named PETER , went off about five years ago; he is very black, tall and slim, and had many scars on his back, occasioned by whipping for running away before I had him—he could work a little at the shoe, basket, and collar-making business; has very crooked shins, and if alive is now about 35 years old. The other went off the 14th of December last, and took with him my horse, saddle, bridle and great coat—he is of a yellow complexion, middle sized, has a limp in his gait and walks with his toes turned inward—he has been my miller for several years, is very sensible and pollavering, and can read tolerably well—he was born near Williamsburg, and it is expected, he will make his way thither, or further to the northward, or, probably, over the mountains to the westward—his name is DAVY , but it is expected he will change it to BOB , or to MICAIAH FENDLY , having as some suppose, stolen said Fendly's freedom pass, which is recorded in Mecklenburg county court.
The horse he took is a likely bay, about four feet eleven inches high, about nine years old, has the mark of some galls on his shoulders, steps very stately, holds his head high, especially when out of the bridle, his mane hangs on the wrong side. The saddle is country made and much worn. An old half-curb bridle. The great coat of drab colour, good cloth, with an old fashioned cape and a rent on the right side. He had on a good black velvet waistcoat and breeches, and other clothes of good Virginia cloth.
