The land will be divided into tracts suiting the conscience of the tenants, and will be let for seven years, on either of the two following terms:
1. The Tenants shall have the land they clear, rent free for five years, and pay two dollars or four bushels of wheat per acre, for each of the two remaining years.

PARIS, August 25.
Letters from Vienna say, that the court Kaunitz, and prince Lickenstein, have been charged by the emperor to go to the frontiers to receive the daughter of Louis XVI. having agreed to accept the relations of the late king in exchange for the deputies.
Letters from Italy say, that a suspension of arms has taken place betwixt the armies of France and those of the king of Sardinia. According to those letters all the powers of Italy are computed in this armistice, with the exception of those countries which are under the immediate direction of the emperor.
We are assured that the English have made a descent on Flushing, and that the Dutch have repulsed them.
August 29. We learn from Basle, that the work of peace was terminated; but the information was premature. It is true, however, that the negotiations advance. The arrival of the deputies Reubell and Merlin, is a proof that a finish will soon be put to the treaty.
The chevalier d'Yriarte, the Spanish minister, labours with great ardour, for the pacification of the Italian States.
Our armies, it is positively said, have crossed the Rhine.
The people of Paris have been to-day allowed three quarters of a pound of bread each person. It is nearly six months since they had so large an allowance. They are promised an entire pound of bread per day, as soon as the new constitution shall be in force. So great is the want of labourers, that 150 to 200 livres per day, is paid by farmers for reapers of their harvest. No wonder, therefore, that corn is dear.
The British vessels have re-commenced the blockade of Genoa. No vessel goes out or in but they visit it. They seize all vessels which are bound to that part of the rivers occupied by the French. The government of Genoa flows the greatest dissatisfaction at this conduct of the British.
LONDON, August 10.
The Spanish ambassador being interrogated respecting the precipitancy with which his court had concluded the peace with France; it was full time said he, for if we had waited one month, they would have been masters of Madrid.
The debt of Spain is estimated at two hundred millions of dollars since the commencement of the war with France.—The clergy has paid ninety-six millions—and there has been sixty thousand men killed.
Sapineau and Charette are marching towards Nantes at the head of the Vendéans—they expect daily a bloody engagement.—The republican columns increase—the last letters state the army at one hundred and fifty thousand men—they add, that general Hoche will terminate the business before winter: he has always kept his word.
August 14.
As a proof of the prodigious increase of the linen trade of Ireland (the staple of the northern parts of that kingdom) in the course of the last six weeks they exported to this kingdom, of plain linens only, the surprising quantity of 15,809,824 yards.
The new insurrection of the Vendéans, under the orders of general Charette, is publicly announced in every Paris newspaper. He has 60,000 men in arms under his command, and the convention is extremely fearful of sending any of the republican troops against him. The Chouans are likewise stated to be in great force in all the western provinces.
August 26.
The papers, instead of confirming the report of Pichegru's having been repulsed in an attempt to cross the Rhine: say that he was prevented on the 12th, by
the swelling of the river; but that on the 13th, 14th, and 15th, he carried over six columns of his army. They neither mention where this operation was effected, or whether any opposition was made to it by the Austrian troops.
A letter from Cleves says, that a Dutch squadron of 12 ships of the line and 18 frigates is to co-operate with a French squadron fitting out at Dunkirk.
The alacrity of the Russian squadron in sailing in quest of the Dutch squadron, on the first notice, has been so much insisted upon as a proof of the great assistance our Russian alliance is likely to afford to our naval operations. The lords of the admiralty however, depended so little upon this assistance, that they sent out a British force more than a match for that of the Dutch.
Lexington, November 28.
We find by the reports of the Health Committee of New-York, that the disorder prevalent in that place, is rapidly abating; so much so, that families that moved out on account of the disease, are daily returning—many houses that have been shut for some weeks are now opened and business begins to resume its former vigor.
*** The want of paper has prevented our giving a supplement to this and our last; whereby H. Marshall's "Address to the well disposed people of Kentucky," the "Freeman," and a number of advertisements, have been unavoidably omitted.
ALL those indebted to the subscribers, by bond, note or book account, are earnestly requested to discharge them on or before the 20th of December next. Those who do not avail themselves of this notice, may expect the next to be a legal one.

STATE OF KENTUCKY.
S P E E C H
Of his Excellency the Governor to the Legislature of this State.
Gentlemen of the Senate and House of Representatives:
VERY shortly after the close of the last session of the General Assembly, the special Commissioner, appointed by the President of the United States to lay before the government of this State the undisguised state of the treaty depending at the court of Madrid, respecting the free navigation of the river Mississippi, arrived in this State.
The communications made by him to me, will be laid before you; I consider the mode in which they were received as the most proper, because it was the least expensive, and the most expeditious one by which the true state of that important negotiation could be universally known to those who are so deeply interested in its success. I am sorry to be obliged to add, that I have received no subsequent communications from the President containing any intelligence of the further progress or accomplishment of the treaty; and that from the late encroachments made by the Spaniards on the territory of the United States, there is, (I fear) little or no hope for a successful termination of that negotiation.
In conformity to a resolution of the legislature at their last session, I have made repeated applications to the President, that the amount of certain militia expenses incurred by this State, for the defence of our exposed frontiers, should be reimbursed, but have as yet received no answer to those applications.
Having reason to believe from very recent information, that certain surveyors acting under pretended authorities from the State of Virginia, have lately surveyed land to a large amount, north of the Cumberland mountain, on land warrants lately issued by the State of Virginia. I have addressed the Governor of that State on this subject. I consider it as very important to the peace and interest of this State, that proper steps should be pursued to have any doubts that may exist, as to our true boundary in that quarter, removed as soon as possible. You will have the papers necessary to give you full information on this subject, laid before you.
Gentlemen of the House of Representatives.
The doubts which have arisen as to the proper construction of that part of the revenue law by which the former taxes were reduced, will make it essentially necessary, that the legislature should pass an explanatory act to remove those doubts.
It is with pleasure I inform you, that it appears by a statement of the revenue, laid before me by the Auditor of public accounts, that there will be a considerable surplus remaining after satisfying all the demands that can be made on the public treasury. This statement will also be laid before you.
The defensive measure of protection which I have found necessary to employ during the present season for the security of the exposed parts of the State, have been wholly furnished at the expence of the general government, under powers vested in me for that purpose, by the President of the United States.
Gentlemen of the Senate and of the House of Representatives.
Nothing could have a greater tendency to increase the wealth and population of this State, than the making of good roads in every useful direction from this State to the Eastern States. And I have no doubt but that the surplus of the present taxes will be found fully adequate to the effecting that desirable purpose. Feeling the full force of conviction that the legislature cannot be more usefully employed
than by devising a plan to effect this object, I recommend it to your most serious consideration. Great evils are to be apprehended from the increase of vagrants, disorderly and idle persons in this State, and will require all the wisdom of the legislature to make such regulations as will give a check to them. The amending the acts directing that certain children should be bound out apprentices to useful mechanics, appears to me to be one of the best means of effecting that salutary end. The commanding officer of the troops of the United States, has transmitted to me a copy of the treaty, lately concluded by him on the part of the United States with the late hostile tribes of Indians, north-west of the river Ohio; this will also be laid before you. As a real and permanent peace with the Indians is not only necessary for the general welfare of the United States, but is more particularly so to the true interest and prosperity of this State, I flatter myself that no interruption will be given to that peace by any improper conduct of any of the citizens of this State; but the good of the whole requires that legal provision should be made for the punishment of those who may be guilty of such improper conduct.
I should not discharge the duty I owe my country, in a manner that would be satisfactory to myself, if I did not call your attention to the treaty lately concluded between America and Great Britain. If this treaty contained stipulations which were only contrary to good policy, although it would be the undoubted right of the State legislatures to express their opinions of those stipulations, it might be a matter of doubt whether it would be expedient for them to do so. But as many of the stipulations contained in this treaty are evidently contrary to the constitution of the general government, I consider it as the indispensable duty of the State legislatures, to express their sentiments of such parts of the treaty as are unconstitutional, with the firmness and decency becoming the representatives of freemen. If you view this important question in the same light that I do, I have no doubt but that you will act upon it, in such a manner as will do honor to yourselves and our constituents.
ISAAC SHELBY.
Frankfort, Nov. 3, 1795.
A N S W E R Of the Senate.
SIR, WE have considered the contents of your address to both houses of the legislature.
The manner in which you have communicated to the public, the information given by the special commissioner, appointed by the president of the United States, to this country, relative to the navigation of the Mississippi, we conceive the most proper for its general promulgation, and we lament with your excellency, that no further information has been received of the progress in that business, which is so highly interesting to the citizens of the western country.
It is unnecessary to signify any approbation separately of every species of information contained in your address or of the measures recommended to the consideration of the legislature; we feel, however, a pleasure in assuring you generally that your information is satisfactory, and that we shall pay particular attention to the several measures submitted to our consideration.
In all your communications to the legislature, you have evinced to us your solicitude for the public welfare: and your impartial administration of government, meets with our warmest approbation.
As this, perhaps may be the last time we shall address you in our legislative capacity, accept our sincerest wishes for your prosperity.
A N S W E R
Of the House of Representatives. To his Excellency the Governor of Kentucky.
SIR,
YOUR attention to the public welfare, so eminently displayed in your communications to the legislature, cannot but be highly pleasing to the representatives of the people. Permit us to assure you at the same time, that we return you our thanks for those communications; that we will take into consideration the several objects you have recommended to our notice. Independent of the general provisions of the treaty lately negotiated between America and Great Britain, we think with you sir, that it is the indispensable duty of the states legislature, to express their sentiments of such parts of the treaty as are unconstitutional, with the firmness and decency becoming the representatives of freemen.
This first exertion of the powers delegated to the president and senate by the constitution, demands our serious attention: And we assure you sir that upon this, as well as upon every other occasion, we will cheerfully cooperate with you in such measures as will tend to promote the happiness and welfare of our constituents.
