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.

BY YESTERDAY'S MAIL.
PARIS, Praial 3, (May 22.)
The Convention received the news of a new treaty signed between the French Republic and the king of Prussia, on Floreal 28th, (May 17th) in consequence of the seventh article of the first treaty. Some states of Germany have agreed to withdraw their contingent; neutrality is to be observed with them, and a line of demarcation has been consequently drawn. Austria will soon remain alone to combat on the Rhine, and hopes of a general peace are entertained.
LONDON, May 25.
The French appear to have commenced the campaign in Catalonia, with such success as gives reason to fear that they will penetrate to Barcelona. In Navarre, the Spaniards have made two unsuccessful attempts to dislodge them from their posts before Pampepluna, the probable consequence of which is the fall of that place.
The conclusion of a second treaty between the king of Prussia and the French Republic, which was announced to the convention, on the 22d of May, is evidently another effort of the design to promote a Prussian ascendancy in Germany, and must, therefore, be another temptation of the emperor, to relinquish the war, for the purpose of opposing the ascendancy. Already 3 princes have accepted the king of Prussia's mediation, and with it his protection of their neutrality. Others are likely to follow; and, thus, not only will the influence of the emperor be daily diminishing, but the line of country upon which his forces can act, be narrowed.
June 2.
Ministers are still so confident of the practicability of starving France, that they have sent out orders for making prize of American ships, bound to France with corn or provisions. This we understand they have notified to Mr. Jay, alleging that the cargoes of those ships belong to the French Government.
Thus on a wild speculation of their own, and at a time when none of their agents has just returned from France, and brought them an account, that although bread be very scarce, potatoes, other vegetables, and butcher's meat, are in great plenty, and at very moderate prices, they hazard another dispute with America, and subject the people of England to the payment of half a million of smart money, for their folly.
June 6.
At length we are relieved from a painful suspense respecting the fate of the Hamburg packets, by the arrival of four of them at Yarmouth late on Wednesday night.
The general tenor of the news is, that every thing on the Continent bears the appearance of a most vigorous prosecution of the war. So far from the Emperor having any disposition towards peace, large bodies of Imperial troops are marching down in all directions from his hereditary dominions towards the Rhine; among whom are
16000 Austrian Cavalry. The Elector of Saxe, who has been reported in the Paris papers to have accepted of a neutrality with the Republic, has determined in conjunction with the Emperor, to carry on the war; and his Serene Highness is using the most powerful exertions in forwarding supplies, both of men and provisions, to the Rhine.
Letters from Hamburgh of the 27th ult. state, that the Austrians have recrossed the Rhine in very great force; that a very severe action has taken place between General Clairfayt and the French, near Mayence, in which the latter were completely, with the loss of several pieces of cannon. There is also a report on the continent, that the siege of Luxemburg has been raised but we are not certain of this intelligence being authentic. Twenty five thousand Austrian cavalry were said to be on their march to the relief of that fortress.
The general conversation abroad turns on the approaching alliance, offensive and defensive, between France and Prussia; and also of a triple alliance between the two Imperial Courts and Great Britain.
PHILADELPHIA, July 22.
NOTICE.

Dr. William Shippen in the chair, the following Resolutions were proposed, considered and UNANIMOUSLY adopted:

2. Resolved, that it is peculiarly the duty of the citizens to express the public sense, upon an instrument so novel, and so momentous as the treaty with Great Britain lately projected between Lord Grenville and Mr. Jay; affecting all the political interests, and national ties of the United States.
3. Resolved, that the citizens of Philadelphia, in judgment and in feeling, disapprove the treaty, and are desirous, as far as their influence extends, to prevent its becoming the supreme law of the land.
4. Resolved, that the following citizens shall constitute a committee to prepare and report a memorial, addressed to the president of the United States, respectfully but forcibly conveying the sentiments of the city of Philadelphia, on this important occasion:

That on the 15th of February 1786, I caused the said entry to be surveyed according to location, beginning at a tree at an old camp, therein called for and have since obtained a patent therefor. And as the testimony respecting the said tree, at the old camp depends on persons now living, in order to perpetuate their testimony I obtained from the county court of Bourbon, 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 the last session of assembly entitled "An act to ascertain the boundaries of lands and for other purposes." All whom it may concern are therefore desired to take notice that on the 18th day of August '95, I shall attend with the commissioners aforesaid and sundry witnesses at the said old camp, being the place where my survey of 800 acres aforesaid does begin, when and where I shall take the depositions of the said witnesses in order to establish the same and do such further acts therein as shall be necessary and as the said law directs.

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 farther 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 MICAJAH 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.
Whoever secures the above described men and goods or either of them, so that I get them again, shall receive a liberal reward.
