THE Managers believe it enough to induce the public to become adventurers, to inform them, that the object of this Lottery is to erect a new building, at the UNIVERSITY in Cambridge, for the further accommodation of the Students. The Friends of Literature are to be found every where, and when its cause can be served, and a good chance for personal emolument at the same time presents itself, this double inducement, it is conceived must operate in favour of the Lottery.
THE Managers of this Lottery had the conducting of the late State Lottery—the public will do them the justice to say, that the strictest punctuality as to the time fixed for drawing, and in the payment of Prizes, was observed by them in that Lottery—they pledge themselves for the same punctuality in this.

THE heirs of Meshech Bell, late of New-Castle, deceased, are hereby notified, That Mary Bell, Executrix of of his Will, has petitioned, representing that his personal estate is not sufficient to pay his debts, and that it is necessary real estate of said deceased should be sold for that purpose, and that a part thereof would be sufficient; but that selling such part, and not the whole, would be very injurious to the persons interested therein: and therefore praying for licence to sell the whole.—WHEREUPON it is ordered that she be heard at the Probate Court, to be holden at Portsmouth, on the third Wednesday of October next, at eleven of the clock before noon, when they may shew cause (if any they have) why said prayer should not be granted.

LONDON, July 5. Extract from the KING'S PROCLAMATION, of June 13, suspending certain parts of the French Property Bill, as far as relates to the Bills of Exchange and trade of America.
"His Majesty is pleased, by and with the advice of his privy council, to order, that it shall be lawful for any person residing, or being in Great-Britain, to pay any bill drawn in any part of North America, by any house of trade, established in any part of North America, upon any person or persons in Great-Britain, and to pay any sum or sums of money on account of any house of trade, established in any part of North America, notwithstanding any one or more of the said house of trade, by whom such bill shall have been drawn, shall be within any of the territories under the government of the persons exercising the powers of government in France; Provided such bill shall have been so drawn for the purpose only of some commercial transaction bonafide between such house of trade so established in North America, and some house of trade in some part of his Majesty's dominions, or country in amity with his Majesty, or for the purpose of some commercial transaction with France, relative to articles not prohibited to be exported from this kingdom to France. And his Majesty is pleased further to order, that it shall be lawful for any person residing in Great-Britain, to send, supply, or deliver any goods, wares or merchandise, to, for, or on account of any house of trade in North America, notwithstanding any one or more person or persons, engaged in such house of trade, shall be within any of the dominions of France."
"Provided such goods, wares or merchandise, shall be so sent, supplied or delivered, bonafide, for the sole use and benefit of such house of trade in North America, and not for the purpose, directly or indirectly, of carrying on any commerce with, or making or providing any remittance to France."
"Provided also, that every person who shall take the benefit of such licence hereby granted, shall take the same, upon condition that in case of any proceeding, criminal or civil, under the provisions of the said Act of Parliament, for any thing alleged to have been done contrary to the licence hereby given, the proof that such thing was done under the special conditions required by this order shall lie on the persons claiming the benefit of such licence."
AUGUSTA, August 9.
From Nashville, July 14.
"Our frontier settlers have been so much engaged in the French projected attacks on West-Florida and Louisiana, as to neglect the motions of the Indians, who have surprised a detachment of the continental troops on Mud river, killed 25 men, and taken about 56 horses."
CHARLESTON, Aug. 22.
A letter from Capt. JOHN MILIGAN, dated Charleston-bar, to his brother in this city, Says,
"CITIZEN BROTHER,
"I AM anchored off the bar, bound for Savannah; my reasons for delay are to get some dispatches forwarded by some of the pilots to the Consul. I left Bourdeaux, the 25th June, and am now but 57 days from the port. Before I left it, dispatches were received from Paris, of the execution of the King of Sardinia. Our brave Sans Culottes, swear that no tyrannical monarch shall exist. Advices were likewise received from the Northern army, informing that Gen. PICHEGRU, with an army of 90,000 brave Republicans, had crossed the Sambre, and given battle to the Combined Forces, under the command of the DUKE OF YORK and SAXE COBURG, on the 2d of June, and after taking the Emperor and Gen. MACK, (who were destined for Vienna,) together with three thousand prisoners, most of whom being Englishmen, were instantly put to the sword, in consequence of a late decree of the National Convention."
"In consequence of the great victory, they have called a council of war to be held at Brussels, on the 26th of June, (provided, that city should not be in possession of the Sans Culottes,) to determine on the propriety of an immediate peace. It was said, and generally believed, that CLAIRFAYT, was likewise made a prisoner, and the Duke of York, received three musket balls in his back on his retreat, which are said to be mortal."
"On the 1st of July, in lat. 47, 30, long. 14, W. spoke the French sloop of war, La Lanterne, which informed us, that on the 12th of June, there was an engagement between a French fleet of 12 sail, and the British fleet, under the com-
mand of Admiral MONTAGUE, consisting of 12 sail, accompanied by two Spanish 74 gun ships, which were part of the fleet sent out to intercept the Chesapeake convoy."
"They fought obstinately for six hours, when the British bore away, leaving in possession of the French, one 80 and one 64 gun ships. One French ship sunk in the action. One of the Spaniards commanded by Capt. DON ALVADOS, fell a victim to the French."
PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 10.
WESTERN DISTURBANCES.
DISPATCHES were yesterday received from the commissioners sent by the federal and state governments to offer terms to the insurgents in the western counties of this state. The information those contain are not so favorable as was anticipated from the disposition expressed by the committee of conference. It appears, that the propositions made by the commissioners were laid before the committee of safety of 60, of which the committee of conference were a part. They were taken into consideration by the grand committee, 57 members being present; on the 28th ult. Mr. Gallatin addressed them in a speech of two hours long, in which he treated the subject in a very masterly manner, recommending obedience to the law, and recourse to the constitutional means of obtaining a repeal of it. He was followed by Mr. Bradford who in a violent and inflammatory harangue of considerable length endeavoured to make a contrary impression; he contended, that resistance to the oppression of an odious excise was not only a duty, but that in the then situation of the western country it was practicable to render that opposition effectual; that the only article wanted to insure a happy issue to their efforts was fire arms, that they wanted neither numbers nor courage, and that the militia sent against them would furnish arms. It was resolved, on the question of approving or disapproving of the propositions of government, that the votes should not be given viva voce but by ballot, lest fear should influence.
Upon counting the votes, 34 were found in favor of the terms offered by government and 23 against. Some four or five members afterwards declared they had voted contrary to their sentiments having mistaken the question. The committee, however, were unwilling that their sense of the terms offered by government, should be considered as binding on the people, and having appointed a committee of nine, further to confer with the commissioners from government, it was determined, that those terms should be finally referred to the people at large, and to collect their sense, each inhabitant entitled to a vote is, on the 11th inst. to give it in the manner according to which elections are conducted, either pro or con the propositions. In the county of Washington, the inhabitants are to vote in townships, and in that of Alleghany, in election districts. The return of votes is to be made on the 16th inst. to the town of Union in the county of Fayette. It should be added, that the committee of nine after a conference with the commissioners from government individually signed their acquiescence in the terms they offered, and promised to use their influence to cause them to be accepted.
We hold the foregoing statement from very good authority and can vouch for the accuracy of the material parts of it. Thus it appears, that the unfortunate business in that quarter is not so near a close as there was reason, a few days since, to expect. It is hoped government placing a reliance on the good sense of the people, will grant the delay asked, to the middle of the month, and no doubt that good sense will defeat the designs of the factious. The voting will occasion a warm contest, and as the question will be war or not war it would not be surprising if it led to acts of violence between the different parties. Should the sense of the counties after this solemn trial, be in favor of violent opposition to the laws, no citizen who values the blessings that flow from government will refuse his most active aid in suppressing so dangerous and despotic an attempt of a minority to rule, and we shall at a blow crush the hydra of anarchy and by a decisive line of conduct in this first instance destroy the germe of any future conspiracy against the constitution and laws.
One of the persons most active as a leader in the western opposition to the laws, is said to have written to Gen. Morgan, of Virginia, that the moment he should set his foot upon Pennsylvania at the
head of his troops, certain relations of his in the disaffected counties, should be put to death. He answered, that he was not to be deterred from his duty by any such unmanly threats; but if they offered those relations the least insult, he would hang every insurgent he caught upon the first tree.
A copy of a letter from David Bradford, of Washington, in Pennsylvania, to the inhabitants of Monongalia.
Washington, Sept. 6, 1794.
Gentlemen,
I presume you have heard of the spirited opposition given to the excise law in this State. Matters have been so brought to pass here, that all are under the necessity of bringing their minds to a final conclusion. This has been the question amongst us some days: "Shall we disapprove of the conduct of those enraged against Neville, the excise officer, or approve them—or, in other words, shall we suffer them to fall a sacrifice to a Federal Prosecution, or shall we support them?" On the result of this business we have fully deliberated, and have determined, with head, heart, hand and voice, that we will support the opposition to the excise law—The crisis is now come.—Submission or opposition—We are determined in the opposition—We are determined in future to act agreeably to system; to form arrangements, guided by reason, prudence, fortitude and spirited conduct—We have proposed a general meeting of the four counties of Pennsylvania, and have invited our brethren in the neighboring counties in Virginia to come forward and join us in council and deliberation, on this important crisis, and conclude upon measures interesting to the Western counties of Pennsylvania and Virginia. A notification of this kind may be seen in the Pittsburgh paper—Parkinson's ferry is the place proposed as most central, and the 14th of August the time.
We solicit you by all the ties that an union of interest can suggest, to come forward and join with us in our deliberations—the cause is common to all—we invite you to come, even should you differ with us in opinion—we wish you to hear our reasons influencing our conduct.
Yours, with esteem.
DAVID BRADFORD.
From Trenton, Sept. 10.
The several troops, commanded by Capt. Ward and Williamson, in Essex county, and Longfreet, Quay, and Coovenhoven, in Monmouth county, have unanimously offered themselves volunteers in the service of their country, as a part of the detachment of 500 horse from this State.
HUDSON, (N. Y.) Sept. 4.
Extract of a letter from a person belonging to this city, dated Brest 29th June, 1794, to his friend here.
"I wrote you from St. Maloes, but am fearful my letter did not come to hand. I arrived at this port 10 days ago, in the frigate Le Resolue, of 36 guns, who captured the vessel I belonged to in the channel on the 15th ult. and sent her into this port, but detained me on board the frigate. The Captain offered me the command of a gun, and having presented me with a suit of naval regimentals, a pair of pistols, a sword and a Liberty cap, I consented to take charge of it, we were then standing for an English frigate—at half past four, the engagement commenced, the first broadside we received, killed 23 of our men, every man was killed at my gun except myself."
"We then wore short round and hauled our wind, and got his three masts in one, hove our main and mizen top-sails to the mast, and poured in our whole broad-side, which killed upwards of 50 men, and cut away his mizen and main topmast, he then hauled down his colors, and in five minutes set them again, and kept them set until he shot away our foretopmast and killed six men on our forecastle, we gave another broad-side and grappled him; he immediately struck his colors, we then took possession of his ship, capized his color and sent him to Brest. We then refitted our ship, and proceeded on our cruise; the next we took was a ship of 22 guns from Liverpool, upon a cruise, we carried her to St. Maloes; and having recruited our men went to sea again. In five days after, we took two English merchantmen bound up the Streights, and four Irish brigs, bound to Jamaica, loaded with beef and butter."
"Having joined four first rate ships we took three Dutch men of war, and twenty sail of merchantmen; we then came into Brest, where I left the frigate, and went on board my own ship—Here I held a fight which you will think almost
incredible, near three hundred sail of English merchantmen lay here with their colors reversed, besides many Spanish and Dutch ships. The French nation is in a flourishing situation, and their arms are every where victorious."
BOSTON, September 18.
Important Intelligence,
—IF TRUE—
From Brown's Philadelphia Paper, received by the last Mails.
Extract of a letter from a gentleman of respectability, residing on the Western Frontiers of the state of New-York, dated 21st of August, 1794.
"I have seen two gentlemen, both from Niagara; they brought from thence the important intelligence, that General WAYNE having advanced within forty miles of the post lately taken by the British at the Miami Rapids, the cavalry were detached to attack the post. On their approach, the officer commanding the cavalry ordered them to evacuate the fort, which the commanding officer refused to do, saying he would defend it to the last. He was again summoned, and told that the fort would be instantly attacked and every man put to the sword—on their marching up, the British marched out, and were ordered to ground their arms, which they did. The arms, ammunition and provisions were taken possession of and sent to General WAYNE. The British were served out one day's provisions and ordered to quit the territory of the United States. The fort was completely destroyed before the cavalry marched to join the American army."
These gentlemen further add, that a company of grenadiers and one of light infantry, each eighty rank and file, with four heavy artillery pieces and their complements of artillerymen, marched from Niagara a few days ago for fort Erie, as was there understood to re-establish the post at the rapids of the Miami. It was also reported the Indians had had two partial engagements, one with a detachment from General WAYNE's army, in which fifty Indians were killed—the other with the detachment of cavalry, when on their march, in which seventy were killed; that they had sent a hatchet and a string of wampum to Mr. SIMCOE, saying, that the hatchet was too blunt."
FURTHER.
We are informed that there is a letter in town from a gentleman in Canada, informing that the advance of the American Army, on its march to Miami, had encountered and defeated a party of Indians, and took forty prisoners; that upon the approach of the army to the fort, lately erected by a detachment of British soldiers, the garrison retired without opposition, leaving 4 pieces of cannon, and that it was destroyed by the orders of General WAYNE. Not having obtained sight of the letter, we are unable to state particulars.
[ Amer. Daily Adv. ]
TRUTH ever being our AIM, we take the earliest opportunity of laying before the public the following Intelligence, contained in a letter from Copenhagen, and from the oral accounts of the Captain of the Joseph:—"Copenhagen, July 21, 1794.—By the latest accounts we have from London, it would appear, that the differences between your States and Great-Britain, which Mr. JAY came over to settle, are not likely to be terminated in that expeditionary and amicable manner, which was at first expected; we hope, however, that matters will be made up, and hostilities prevented taking place between the two nations."
We further learn that the principal obstacle to Mr. JAY's mission, was indemnification for vessels actually laden with the produce of the French islands, bound direct from thence to Europe.
Capt. WEBBER of the Joseph, informs, that the day previous to his sailing from Elsinore, a vessel arrived in five days from New-castle, the Capt. of which advised, that a few days before his sailing from New-Castle, a mob, composed of the Pitmen, and other workers of the Coal Mines, and amounting in number to about 8000, had paraded through the principal streets, committing every devastation in their power—after which they made towards the government house in order to destroy the building and its contents, but were prevented by the militia, then assembled under arms. Capt. Webber further adds, that the militia were ordered to fire on the banditti, but they refused to obey the order, in consequence of

which the town was in the greatest confusion imaginable—and continued in this state until the vessel sailed.
From HALIFAX, Sept. 5.
We learn, that the Pigou was reloading; but for what purpose was not known: That the Resolution of 74, the Africa and Argonaut of 64, and two frigates lay in the harbour. The Thetis of 38, l'Oiseau of 36, the Hussar of 28, and Blanche of 32 guns were on a cruise. The inhabitants of Halifax universally deprecate a war with the United States; which seems only to be wished for by the officers and crews of the Men of War.
Extract of a letter from Halifax, dated Sept. 3d.
“Some of the American vessels that were captured by Admiral MURRAY's Squadron have been tried and acquitted; and it is supposed all the others will likewise be liberated. Such of them as were taken from the British and sold in the States will be considered as re-captures, and will be restored to their original owners, paying a salvage to the captors.”
From Manchester, we are sorry to learn, that the sickness there, had not abated. It is said, that in proportion to the numbers in this small town, more persons have died than in Philadelphia last year.
The Pittsburgh mania has extended to Hagars' town, in the state of Maryland, or Virginia.—Where efficient preparations are making to cure it.
COMMUNICATIONS.
Though the measures pursued at Pittsburgh cannot be justified, yet the mode of reasoning on this subject is rather singular.
It is said that Governor SIMCOE is at the bottom of this business, consequently all this difficulty arises thro' the instrumentality, or probably the “secret instructions” of the British Ministry.
However we can bear this insolent conduct from that nation as it relates to our commerce, yet when they begin to derange our funds, or “adjudicate” on this species of property it is full time for every man to turn out, and commence a war in the very bowels of our country. It is hoped, however, if the British are at the bottom of this business, that our amicably disposed friends, mean to make ample satisfaction for the mischief that may arise, and include the damages in the general compensation. The funding gentlemen no doubt will be willing to wait, as their losses it is expected will be included in Mr. JAY's pacific negotiations.
The damages done our commerce by Jervis, and the damages done our funds by SIMCOE ought to be forwarded with their proper documents, and there is not the least danger but that every reasonable consideration will be made us by the British.
Quere—If the British are the cause of the insurgency, will it not be considered a declaration of war against that powerful nation to endeavour to suppress it?
NEW-YORK, Sept. 14.
Yesterday arrived the ship Francis and Mary, Capt. REID, from Falmouth, (England) bringing London papers down to the 25th July:—The passengers inform, that it was reported at Falmouth, that Antwerp, had been taken by the French, and that Lord GRENVILLE, Secretary of State, for foreign affairs, and Earl WINDHAM, Secretary of War, had positively left London for Germany, on business of the utmost importance with the Emperor.
LONDON, July 24—25.
Letters from Warsaw, brought by the Dutch mail-ship, that another action between the Prussians and Poles took place on the 8th ult. near Chelm, that the Poles were again defeated; but that happily no disastrous consequences had resulted from their defeat. General Koscziusko has given orders to the Polish Generals to penetrate beyond the Russian and Prussian frontiers, in order to excite the people to join the Polish patriots.
The Prince of Cobourg has failed back to Titlemont, leaving both Brussels and Namur open to the enemy.
Five merchantmen have been taken by the French and carried into Brest, two of which were bound from Barcelona to Holland, and two from Amsterdam to Lisbon; this circumstance was posted, yesterday, in the books at Lloyd's.
BRITISH ARMY.
Camp at Kontigh, July 12.
In our present position there is such a scarcity of water, that all the men in the army who have been accustomed to sink wells or to any similar employment, are immediately to set about the digging of some, that the troops may be supplied with water.
Yesterday we were informed that the enemy
had taken Louvain; and we have also learnt that for these two days past they have been bombarding Ecluse and Sas-de-Gand. Should they gain possession of these they will immediately pass into Dutch Flanders. In short every operation of the enemy, shews that they are determined to lose no time in completing the conquest of this country.
We hear a heavy firing on the side of Malines, commonly called Mechlin, the enemy as we are informed, having attacked that place. The Earl of Moira, with a great part of his army, has marched to its relief.
MAESTRICHT, July 16.
Two days ago the French began to bombard the citadel of Namur, which, after having been evacuated, was again garrisoned by our troops. The garrison not only returned their fire, but making a sally, in concert with 5000 men under the command of General Latour, attacked the besiegers, and obliged them to retreat with loss, four leagues beyond Namur.
Yesterday Count Heberstein passed through this place to Neerwinde, with information to the Prince of Cobourg, that twenty-eight battalions of Austrians are on their march between Coblintz and CoLogn, to reinforce his army. The Count, who came directly from Vienna, assures us, that the Emperor is levying 190,000 men in his Hereditary States, and that this levy will be completed in the month of October. He also says, that the States of Brabant and Flanders have been formally dissolved, on the requisition of the Emperor, by a provisional sentence of the Chancery of the Netherlands at Vienna; so that if those Provinces should be recovered, the Emperor will be no more embarrassed by States or a Constitution.
From the CHRONICLE.
BOSTON, SEPTEMBER 22.
EPITOME.
Since our last, important accounts have been received from Europe, by the ship Francis and Mary, Capt. Ried, arrived at New-York, from London. By these accounts, the latest of which are to July 25th, we find that our Jacobin friends continue victorious, especially in the Netherlands, where the miserable satellites of despotism, fly before them with the greatest horror and dismay.
Our extracts from the papers by this arrival are as copious as our limits will admit of this day—in our next we shall give many other interesting particulars. For the present we can add in general terms, from a careful perusal of the various accounts—That Ostend, Newport, Brussels, Malines, Ghent, Mons, Tournay, Oud-nard, Leige, Walheim, (on the Rupell) Namur, Orchies, Marchiennes, Louvain, and probably the important city of Antwerp, have fallen before the invincible arms of the brave Sans-Culottes of France. Landrecy is evacuated; Quesnoy and Conde, are completely surrounded, as well as Valenciennes, and orders were actually given by COBOURG, for their immediate evacuation, so that we may safely conclude they are likewise re-possessed by the French. Thus is all Flanders in their possession; and Holland entirely left open, defended only by the Duke of York, and the disaffected Mineers.
By this arrival it also appears that the island of Corsica has become part of the kingdom of Great-Britain—the particulars of which will hereafter appear.—Parliament was prorogued on the 11th July, to the 13th August.
By a report made by Barrere, to the National Convention, on the 5th July, it appears that during the campaign, since the capture of Landrecy, 31,600 slaves of the combined despots have bitten the dust.
The brave Polish General Koscziusko has been less successful than could be wished. Cracow is taken, but he is in great force about 5 leagues from it.—The Prussians and Russians are leaguering to crush him, but the shield of Liberty will protect him, and finally CAIRA (or, it will go) also in Poland.
The passengers inform, that it was reported at Falmouth, that Antwerp had been taken by the French, and that Lord GREENVILLE, Secretary of State for foreign affairs, and Earl WINDHAM, Secretary of War, had positively left London for Germany, on business of the utmost importance with the Emperor.
BRITISH INVASION.
Gov. Clinton, of New-York, has in an official letter to Major-Gen. Gansevoort, dated the 6th inst. ordered the General to put the militia in readiness, for actual service, in consequence of the protest of Lieut. Sheaffe, mentioned in the letter of the Secretary of State to Mr. Hammond. The Governor says, that the principle set up in that protest “cannot for a moment be tolerated by our government—and if any attempt should be made on the part of the British to carry it into execution, it will be justifiable and necessary on our part to repel force by force.”
BRITISH DEPREDATIONS
On American property still continue by their execrable and piratical cruizers. Letters were received by the last mails, which announce, the capture and condemnation at Barbadoes of the ship Cleopatra and her cargo, of this port. She was from the Isle-of-France, bound home; was taken some time since by a British frigate, and carried into Barbadoes. The ship and cargo was bonafide American property, owned principally by Mr. SAMUEL HEWES, merchant of this town.
The Chevalier DE FRERE, ambassador from the Queen of Portugal to the United States, with his lady, and several other gentlemen, came passengers in the Francis and Mary.
A subscription is opened at Philadelphia for the support of the families of the soldiers who are about to march against the western insurgents.
On Monday last arrived at Marblehead-Capt. Knot Pederick, in a schooner in 40 odd days from Madeira—Just before he left Madeira a vessel arrived there in 8 days from Gibraltar, and brought papers which contain particulars of an engagement between an English frigate and four Algerine cruizers, the substance of which was, that the Algerines hailed the Englishman, and ordered him to bring his papers on board—which the English Captain refused; the order was then repeated with a threat, that if it was not complied with, the Turkish vessels would fire upon the frigate—the answer was “Fire and be damned”—an engagement instantly ensued, which terminated in the sinking of two of the Algerine corsairs, and the capture of the other two, which were conducted to Gibraltar.
In New-Jersey, Pennsylvania, Maryland, and Virginia, every thing has the appearance of military bustle, and active preparation. The commissioners of peace have returned, to give place to the commissioners of war. All the troops required from New-Jersey, Maryland and Virginia, are on the march, and Gov. MIRLIN has taken the field in person, as commander of the Pennsylvania volunteers.
The President of the United States has augmented the troops destined to act against the Pittsburgh white boys to 15000 men; the addition will be composed of Virginia riflemen.
