WANTED.
AN Apprentice to the Haring business; enquire of the Printer,
Lexington, Feb. 16, 1793.
MR. BRADFORD,
Please to insert the following account in your useful Paper; and oblige, sir, your humble servant.
ON the 30th day of January of the present year 1793, there fell the largest snow known in these parts for several years. At which time happened a surprising event, of which a particular account has been since received.
JUPITER, who presides over the weather and governs the mighty storms, came down in that uncommon shower, and condescend to enter into a free particular conversation with one Tyrannus a residenter in this State. That Tyrannus might not be overwhelmed, or restrained by terror from speaking his mind freely, the Deity divested himself of all the ensigns of divine power and majesty, and appeared in the gentle form of a friendly neighbour. He had observed, Tyrannus with a sovereign air of authority quite natural to the family, ordering a negro man, who was much more thinly clad than himself, to provide fuel, feed his horses, cattle &c. while he sat diverting himself by a large fire. On which the God enters into discourse with him, and the following dialogue ensued.
Jupiter. I who entered your house in the humble form of your well known neighbour, and under that disguise have been conversing with you a considerable while, am Jupiter the greatest and the best of celestial Deities, who formed these gloomy clouds, direct their various motions, and am now wrapping this globe in sheets of snow. I assure this humble state that your mind may be free from terror, and that you may enjoy an uncontrouled liberty of expressing all the thoughts of your heart.
Tyrannus. Mighty Jupiter, I humbly bow in thy presence, and gratefully acknowledge thy divine condescension. I shall use the freedom thou art graciously pleased to allow me.
J. This man, Tyrannus, whom you command with such an air of authority, is my creature: I formed him of clay; I made him for myself.
T. I acknowledge, mighty Jove, that thou art his maker; for the surprising organization of his body exceeds all finite skill, and never could be the effect of chance: but he is now mine; I bought him with my money, which I presume gives me a better title than that founded on creation.
J. He is my child; I am the father of his spirit.
T. True; but I bought his soul as well as his body.
J. You bought his soul?
T. Yes; I bought his soul; without it, his body would have been of no service to me.
J. I made him a rational creature; a free moral agent, that, as such, he might be accountable to me for all his actions.
T. Yes; but I purchased his free agency for the large sum of eighty five pounds, its full value: it is now mine, and to me it is accountable.
J. Your purchase, Tyrannus, can never free him from the moral obligations he is under to me. He is my servant, and for my glory he is, and was created; and is bound to obey my laws.
T. Great Jupiter, thou knowest that it is impossible he should belong to two masters; and serve two masters, at the same time; therefore since he is mine by lawful purchase, his soul, his body, his free agency, his ALL is mine. His obedience and service are wholly due to me; I may use them at my pleasure. If I command him to neglect the worship of the Gods, or spend the time consecrated to this holy purpose in running on errands or doing other business; if I command him to put away his wife; neglect his children or do any other thing forbidden or not forbidden by the Gods; he is bound to obey me; and for every act of disobedience, deserves, and shall receive condign punishment. Since he is mine, I may presume to say, when I have no use for his soul or his body, he may serve thee; and thus answer the great end of his creation.
J. With regard to free agency, liberty, and the right of judging of and pursuing his own duty and happiness, I made him your equal.
T. Of this truth I have long been fully convinced: all men are equal, in these respects, as they come out of thy creating hand; I acknowledge this on every occasion. But by a strange kind of Legerdemain, of which I understand something myself, he was changed into a horse, before I purchased him. Had he remained a human creature, a man like myself, I could not, I dare not, have purchased him, and considered and treated him as my property. Could I even now believe him to be a man, I should dread thy tremendous thunderbolts; but—how could I part with my money!
J. These children too you call your own; what right have you to them?
T. I solemnly declare in thy presence, great Jupiter, the mother of these children was, by the forementioned mysterious art of Legerdemain, metamorphosed into a mare; and these young ones, tho' they have the shape, members, senses, and perform all the actions of children, are in reality brutes. Being born of a mare they can be nothing but colts. Desirous to raise a flock, I purchas-

career of fashionable dissipation, to be qualified for the discharge of so important a duty."
The following unfortunate event took place a few days ago, near Middletown, Monmouth county, New-Jersey. A young man from New-York, named Adams, went late in the evening, with a companion, to a house, where lived a girl to whom he paid his addresses. Finding the family asleep, they agreed to disturb the poultry house by way of giving a jocular alarm to the owner a jocular alarm. Mr. Morrel, who was in bed in the dwelling house, upon hearing the noise, got up, and suspecting thieves, instantly discharged a musket, loaded with heavy shot, towards the poultry house, and unfortunately shot Adams through the heart, who instantly expired. What rendered this accident still more affecting was Adams being a suitor of Mr. Morrel's wife's sister.
LEXINGTON, April 6.
On the 24th of March, a company consisting of 9 men, 2 women & 8 children, on their way to this state, were attacked about five miles from the Haze Patch toward Laurel river, about an hour before sun set, by a party of Indians supposed to be about thirty. The nine men dismounted and defended the women and children for about fifteen minutes, during which time they fired four or five rounds, but being overpowered and the Indians closing on all sides, the whole were killed or taken, except four, who escaped, one of which is dangerously wounded.

On Saturday last the Indians killed a man on the Beech fork of Salt river.
Monday evening they stole about 30 horses from Man's lick. The same day a boat was fired on in the Ohio at the 18 mile Island by about 25 Indians, luckily nobody was hurt. On Tuesday evening they took a boy from Eastlin's mill in Jefferson county, and carried him to the Ohio then set him at liberty and gave him a knife and pipe-tomhawk. The same day took a man coming from the Salt-works to Steel's Ferry.
The above information received by the post-rider.

SACRED TO THE MUSES. THE SEASONS.
HOW mild the balmy breath of Spring! How fair the fostering vernal sky! Hark! how the woodland minstrels sing! Hark! how the whispering zephyrs sigh! Usurping Summer shifts the scene, And boldly flames in brighter day; How transient is his servid beam! Shot but to dazzle and decay.
Brown Autumn comes in solemn grade; Unlocks her bounteous stores in vain; How quick her raring honors fade! How faint her strength, how short her reign!
See Winter fierce, in mad career! Expiring nature blooms no more, No flowers now to deck the year, For music, hark! the tempest roar! Thus life's progressive seasons pass, Our vernal blush, our autumnal bloom, Our sober autumn's sinking glass, Sad prelude to a wintry tomb!
WHEREAS my wife Mary Mattocks, has without any just cause eloped from my bed and board, and has taken up with a certain William Gibson, I hereby forewarn all persons from crediting her on any account as I am determined to pay no debts of her contracting.
