TO BE LETT,
Half of a convenient
DWELLING-HOUSE, situated in a very pleasant part of the town, for further particulars apply to the Printer hereof. October, 1794.
STOCKHOLM, July 25.
Tho' sentence of death has been pronounced against Thyellius, the fanatic preacher by the Aulic court, the superior court has mitigated the same to a confinement upon bread and water for eight years. Next week will determine the fate of all those who were concerned in Baron D'Armsfeld's conspiracy.
LONDON, August 15. A letter from Geneva of the 30th ult. says, the executions had then ceased for two days; seven self-elected members of the revolutionary Tribunal had been dismissed their office; several of the imprisoned clergy had been released; and the people in general, seemed extremely adverse to the abandoning Geneva, to the power of the French Republic. The Swiss Cantons had stopped all kind of provisions and ammunition from being sent to that city.
HULL, July 26.
A most melancholy affair happened on Saturday se'nnight on board the ship Sarah and Eliza, of this port, returning from Davis's Streights. About 4 o'clock on that day, being nearly nine leagues off St. Abb's Head, she was fired at by the Aurora frigate, Captain William Effington, when the hoisted her colours, and, she being to windward, at the second shot bore down on the frigate; most of the crew had in the mean time got between decks, and secured the hatches, to prevent their being impressed; a boat from the Aurora then came on board, and shortly after another, filled with armed men, upon which one of the Aurora's people took charge of the helm.
Soon after five o'clock the Aurora came along side, and as the men would not come upon the deck, the boatwain of the Aurora, holding a hand-grenade in one hand, and a lighted match in the other, asked Captain Effington if he should fire the hand-grenade amongst the people, which the Captain ordered him to do; but on representation of the master of the Sarah and Elizabeth, that the ship was full of oil, and if the hand-grenade was fired, she would immediately blow up, he desisted. The crew then proceeded with crows to break up the hatches, and as the men still refused to come upon deck, one of the officers from on board the Aurora hailed his Captain, and said, "Will you give us leave to fire?" to which Captain Effington answered in the affirmative, and the marines to about 18 in number, fired down the hatchway, by which one of the Sarah and Elizabeth's people was killed, and three badly wounded; the boatwain of the Aurora was wounded in the leg—The crew of the Sarah and Elizabeth begged for quarters long before the people from the Aurora ceased firing, notwithstanding the orders of the Captain and other officers. The greater part of the crew of the Sarah and Elizabeth, with the wounded men, were then taken on board the Aurora, and put in irons, where they yet remain. The Sarah and Elizabeth, arrived on Wednesday, when the body of the dead man was landed, and a verdict was taken before William Warlon Bolton, Coroner. The jury were unanimous in bringing in wilful murder against the Captain and part of the crew of the Aurora.
We hear that the owner of the Sarah and Elizabeth have instituted a prosecution against them.
The foregoing facts are the substance of the deposition sworn before the Coroner and Jury.
Names of the killed and wounded on board the Sarah and Elizabeth—Edward Boggs, carpenter's mate, killed; Hugh Brooks, boatwain; William Barker, line coiler; and R. Rubey, seaman, wounded.
Captain Effington has written a letter to the

Mayor of Hull , defending his conduct; and says, that the crew of the merchantman were in a state of mutiny, and fired first on one of his officers.
PHILADELPHIA , October 13. A letter from Baltimore by Saturday's post informs that the late sickness there has been so much abated, that the Theatre was to be opened on the 14th inst. (this evening.)
The leaders of the French revolution have, like other politicians, been sometimes in the right, and sometimes otherwise: but the fidelity of the soldiers to the standard of the Republic has been distinguished by circumstances unexampled in history.
To arrest a victorious general, at the head of his troops, would, even in the purest days of Rome, of Athens, or of Sparta, have been a very dangerous experiment. The army of the Commonwealth of England degenerated into a military machine, conducted by Cromwell. At his command, they literally turned the legislature of their country out of doors. The annals of every domestic contest are full of such stories. It is quite needless to mention any other instances.
In France, Fayette possessed the confidence of the people. He was a man of talents and of virtue, and known to be such. But in the moment when he began to oppose the Convention, or rather the popular party in it, his influence with his army was annihilated. Himself and several of the principal officers were forced to fly.
If there has been only one general in modern ages, who deserved the attachment, the gratitude, the veneration of his soldiers, Dumourier was that man. With a body of raw forces, and by the mere dint of superior skill as a field officer, he repulsed the veterans of the great Frederick, tho' twice as numerous as his own army. He afterwards conquered Flanders, the greatest acquisition made from the foundation of the French monarchy. He would have also conquered Holland, if his army had not been starved by the perfidy, as it alleged, of a faction in the Convention. His men suffered hardships that cannot be related without horror. Thousands died; thousands deserted back to France; but we never heard of a mutiny.
At last, he determined to desert the cause of the Republic; he affirms, perhaps with reason, that the Convention had previously determined to murder him. Something of his difficult situation had been understood by his troops. They suffered him to escape, but, a handful excepted, none of them deserted with him.
Custine also, another victorious commander, was, upon very odd grounds arrested, tried, condemned, and executed. No military murmurs ensued. Not a man mutinied.
Houchard, just after a very great victory, at Dunkirk, was arrested in the midst of his own camp, at a time when arrestment had become equivalent to death. He was tried, condemned, and executed, without a remonstrance, or even a request in his favor.
Jourdan drove Cobourg and Clairfait from their entrenchments at Maubeuge. This was the greatest and best fought battle that the Republic had then gained. Jourdan was recalled and dismissed, with as much facility as if he had been but a drummer. Every body had reason to expect his trial and execution, but he has been restored to command.
Several other eminent officers have been suspended or have fled. All have invariably found that the integrity of the soldiers to the national cause was inflexible. The talents of a Cæsar or a Cromwell could not have dazzled or debauched an army of modern French Republicans. The common men seem to have adopted the laconic motto of the celebrated family of Douglass; FORWARD. The fate of a favorite general is like a bulrush opposed to the ocean of military enthusiasm. A people, who have undertaken to extirpate the Sovereigns of Europe, are engaged in a task too arduous to give themselves leisure for thinking of a displaced commander.
We do not say that the French army are to be praised for every part of their conduct. We only state what has actually happened.
In all the squabbles and massacres of the Convention, the army, the city of Paris, and a very great majority of the rest of the people, have invariably stood by the successful party. This uniform adherence, and unanimity, afford a strong presumption, that many of these executions which appear so shocking, have been grounded on substantial justice.
There is no reason to expect that the progress of the French arms will be impeded by the execution of Robespierre, or even of any general in the French service; since Fayette, Dumourier, Custine and Houchard, Roland, Brissot and Danton, have vanished from the fleeting scene without revenge, and almost without remembrance.
A REVOLUTION IN GENEVA. This event has taken place upon the principles of Liberty and Equality, under the immediate direction of M. Soulavie and Merle, French commissioners, who had brought over a large party of the inhabitants into their measures. Early in the morning of the 9th, the members of a club, of which the two Frenchmen were leaders, had recourse to arms, and, arming the populace at the same time took possession of the gates and arsenals. They then elected a Revolutionary Committee, by whom every person inimical to their interests was instantly apprehended, and sent to prison; nearly a thousand in number, amongst whom is M. Necker, late prime minister of France. Among the prisoners, all the ecclesiastics, no one excepted, are comprehended.
Soulavie is at the head of every thing: His confidants have taken on themselves the whole
of the management; and so fully was he prepared for what was to happen, that early on Sunday morning he transmitted to the club a list of those who were to be apprehended, with orders to seize them wherever they could be found.
The Revolutionary Tribunal was no sooner elected, than it proceeded to exercise its functions. On the 22d it sentenced to death fourteen persons—seven of these sentences were confirmed by the Revolutionary mass—the others were changed into banishment or imprisonment, with confiscation of property. The condemned were instantly shot.
The populace, since the revolution, and at this hour, pillage every where, and are eager in endeavouring to discover all whom they consider any way inimical to the present system.
BOSTON , October 18. FEVER AT NEW-HAVEN.
The following extracts from a letter of 10th inst. from President STILES, to the Rev. Mr. HOLMES, giving a just view of the past progress, and of the present, or very recent, state of the Fever at Newhaven, will enable the public to make proper deductions from some exaggerated accounts of that epidemical disease:
"An accurate entry Oct. 1st, [on the books of the Committee of Inspection] is as follows: From 15th June to 1st Oct. were 131 patients, of which 50 deaths, and 17 of these the last 7 days, and 20 the last 16 days. This the period of great mortality. Since this, the disease has moderated. About 16 patients taken from 1st to 10th Oct. So the total 147 patients of the Yellow Fever, and 56 deaths. Only 3 or 4 deaths of other disorders these two months. The town, otherwise, very healthy. Of 4000 inhabitants, or 700 families, not above 30 families have moved out of town; and perhaps a dozen more removed from the East to the West side of the town. We have no person sick within the 9 squares,* but Dr. HOTCHKISS, and his house is barred up, and designated by a flag.
"I do not recollect how low I brought my account in my last. However, I will give you a synopsis of the last month, and to this time, from the Committee's books of accounts, rendered in every evening by the Physicians, which is just and accurate. [Omitting the account for Sept. that from the 1st to the 10th Oct. is as follows:]
   Sick, Deaths,     " October 1, 11 1   " 2, 14 1   " 3, 14 —   " 4, 15 —   " 5, 15 —   " 6, 12 3   " 7, 16 Conv. —   " 8, 11 5 0   " 9, 1   " 10,  
"11th Oct. morning. One died last night—9 sick, of which 2 dangerous—3 not a crisis formed—4 convalescent—none taken last 4 days—Dr. HOTCHKISS dangerous this morning.
"I am just returned from an adjourned meeting of the Corporation, held at West-Haven, 7th inst. We elected Mr. MEIGS Professor of Mathematics and Natural Philosophy—and, on account of the sickness, extended the present Vacation 2 weeks, to 12th Nov. abolishing the winter vacation this year.
"The assembly set yesterday, just formed, and adjourned to Middletown."
* The streets in New-Haven, cross each other at right angles, and divide the town, we think, into 13 squares. The 9 squares here mentioned, include the Public Square, the Colleges, and the other public buildings, the central and western parts of the town.
EXTRACTS. The sudden and tremendous fall of ROBESPIERRE and his adherents, who constituted the late ruling power in the National Convention of France, is an event which cannot fail to produce much speculation. This man's greatness had sprung from the regenerating principle in France. It had flourished, like the "Green Bay Tree." His branches were far extended, and his roots were numerous and deep and strong. Torn from his standing by a Revolutionary Tornado, the adjacent forest must have shared largely in the breach. The breach was sudden and it was speedily supplied. The same expectations, with equal duties, will devolve on the successors who have fallen in this catastrophe, while the astonished world will be din'd with the replicated enormities of ROBESPIERRE, the tyrant, and his accomplices. But the fagacity of that nation must exceed even their valour, to find those men, whom power and talents may not transform to the disposition of those, who, in dreadful succession, have made their exit on the fatal scaffold of the GUILLOTINE.
Among the disciples of aristocracy, in Paris, the name of THOMAS PAINE appears. We do not hear that the crime of this great man is any other than his being an Englishman.
OCTOBER 22. The London papers by the Mary, are not later in date, than have before been received by the Minerva.
From ELSINEUR. We learn, that an embargo was expected to be laid on all British ships in the Danish dominions, and that it was to take place the 8th August.
By a vessel arrived yesterday, in 50 days from Oporto, (Portugal) we learn, that at the date of
the accounts received there, Bilboa had not been taken by the French; but that its capture was expected.
NOTE. Bilboa, in Spain, is in lat. 43, 23, long 3, 10, from Greenwich. Oporto is in lat. 41, 10, long. 8, 21.
OF GUADALOUPE. A Schooner arrived on Monday, in 23 days from Basseterre, [Guadaloupe.] At the time of her sailing no reinforcements had been received by either French or English; and the situation of the Island remained as our last accounts left it. It appears, however, probable that the English will have the first auxiliaries, as we find by the London papers, that additional troops were ordered out to the West-Indies; and an official account has been received in England, of the situation of Guadaloupe.
ST. LUCIA. A person in the Schooner from Guadaloupe, says that vessels are continually passing between there and St. Lucia, and that he never heard of any change in the situation of that island, except a superceded report that was circulated near 10 days before he failed.
LEGENDRE , it was said, "purged" the Jacobin Club of Paris—He went there with intent to shoot the President—He actually got him beheaded—He turned all the Members out of doors—and locked the door after him. This may be called purging—but it is "purging" with a witness.
We hear not a word said of Robespierre, or his system of Morality—Neither hear we eulogiums on the brave Kolkioicow.
It is said, when St. JUST was going with his friends, Robespierre, and others, to the guillotine, he said, in the words of Shakespear.
"I told ye all, When we first put this danger us knife to cutting, 'Twould fall upon our necks."
SHIP NEWS. Oct. 20. Arrived, Ship Mary, Cunningham, which left the Downs, Aug. 28. Sept. 28, in lat. 45. 5 long. 39 40. saw a ship with her sails loose and split in pieces. She was the Mary Ford, of London; her yawl marked Wm Hurst, and was loaded with rum, sugar, wine and cotton, and had no person on board. From what could be discerned, it was judged she had been taken by a French privateer, and that the captors being chased, had abandoned her, as there were a number of things on deck, ready to take away, which appeared as if left in a hurry. She was a fine ship, about 340 tons, quarter-galleries, but no head; the wind blowing hard, she was left immediately. A ship then in sight to leeward, was supposed to be the vessel which chased the prize. Capt. Cunningham spoke ship President, of Baltimore, the Captain of which informed him, that the brig Mary, from London, for Boston, had been taken by the French, and carried into Brest. The brig Mary, Captain Titcomb, failed for Boston, 14 days before Capt. C. She had on board a considerable quantity of lead, and other articles, which perhaps, induced the capture.
Also arrived here this day, the Georgia Packet, Robert Farley, master, 49 days from the Oporto; Capt. F. failed in company with the Hull Packet, Capt. Neal of New-York. Left in Oporto, ship Carmilla, Capt. Boice of Philadelphia, do. snow Trusty, Capt. Cook; brig Katy, Capt. Williams, of Boston; ship Eagle, Capt. Williamson, of Philadelphia, failed for Figara, 27th Aug. In lat. 42. 30. long. 43. 34. spoke ship Fortitude, from Liverpool, bound to Boston, Choate, Master; who on the 22d Sept. met with a very heavy gale of wind, at same time lost her mizen mast—and wreck'd his vessel considerably; but was soon repaired so as to proceed on his voyage without danger.
By the brig William and George, Capt. Bulkley, arrived at New-York, from West-Indies, 21 days, we learn, that he sold his beef at St. Croix, for 8 dollars, which cost 10 in America. All masters of vessels mentioned in the late Marine List, inform that provisions of all kinds are much lower in the West-Indies, than in the U. S.
SALEM , October 21. On Wednesday last, a deputation from the French ships, and the French Citizens in Boston, arrived in this town, to pay to Captain Richard Derby, of the ship Alknomack, the compliments of their Nation, for his generous services in transporting, free from all expense, a large number of French prisoners from Halifax. They displayed a Standard, upon which the name of the Captain appeared over the Tree of Liberty. The Cadets, then upon the parade, escorted them to E. H. Derby's, Esq. where they were politely received, and they spent the evening at Gen. Fisk's in company with the military officers of the town. There was great hilarity, and the greatest good order. The French Deputies gratified the company with their usual national songs, and left the kindest opinions in their favour, upon the minds of the inhabitants.
TALIEN, Now Leader of the French Convention, Is about 32 years of age, full of fire and energy. His head is lofty and commanding. He is a Girondin, or, to speak stricter, a Muscadin, in all the extent of that term. He is fond of women, of the table, play, and all amusements. Particularly careful of his person, he spends much time at his toilet. He lives publicly with Madame De Fontenai, daughter of the famous Cabayus, of Spain. She is his Egeria, and as much as possible softens the rigour of his Republican character. When he was deputy commissary at Bourdeaux, she engaged him to conduct himself with humanity, and saved many from the fury of his associates.
Talien, however, voted for the death of the King.
The London prints brought by the late arrivals contain two state papers of considerable interest. They picture very strongly indeed, the alarm of the allies, the rapid progress of the French, and display the desperate means to which they think of having recourse for the defence of the country, now the seat of war. One is a manifesto addressed by the Prince Cobourg to the Germanic nation, in which, after taking a retrospect of his unsuccessful efforts in defending Flanders, he calls on that portion of Germany, between the Maese and Rhine, for their silver vases and utensils of the churches, for the service of the Emperor, and concludes by declaring that if they are as negligent in their own defence as the Belgians, he will desolate their country, and retire beyond the Rhine. The other is a proposition from the Stadtholder to the States, for a general levy of men to retrieve the desperate circumstances of the Republic.
Capt. Woodbury arrived yesterday, 31 days from Trinity, Martinique. He informs us, that the British troops have died there in amazing numbers, that there are but very few remaining, and that most of the French merchants are leaving the island for the Southern States of America.

NEWBURY-PORT , Oct. 21. Extract of a letter from a Gentleman in Rutland (Vermont) to his friend in this town, dated September 24, 1794.
"I find from what information I am able to obtain, that a revolution is on foot in lower Canada. The French tired of vassalage, are about emancipating themselves from their intolerable task-masters the British: Should this happen, the province of Canada will become a very easy conquest to the arms of the United States, and the cause of war on our western frontiers very easily removed. The Canadians say they want nothing to carry their plan into complete effect, but persons of enterprize and perseverance to take the lead.
Extract of a letter from a Gentleman in Philadelphia, to his friend in this town, dated October 4, 1794.
"The general state of our city is quite as healthy, if not more so, than at common seasons: in this I am clear, if a comparison of the burials, in the month of September of 1792, or of any year, in which no uncommon distemper prevailed, is any criterion to judge by. And yet I am one of those, who subscribe to the opinion of Doctor Rush and some others, that a few, perhaps in all ten people may have died of a yellow Fever; But surely; if it spread, a disorder so malignant could not fail to carry off an unusual number.
I declare my belief, as one conscientiously concerned not to encourage a stranger to risk his life by coming freely amongst us, that at this time (and I have sought much to get true information) there are not more than 12 people convalescents and all, in the whole city, who have the disorder; and I know not (of them who have died) of more than three families in which it has been communicated from one to the other.
From a London Paper. DIED —In the Fleet Prison, London, Benjamin Pope, Esq. in the 67th year of his age. Mr. Pope was not a less extraordinary character than old Elwis, of memorable memory. He was originally a tanner, in Southwark, and his flock was not worth less than 70,000l. Though said to possess 100,000l. he had been nearly ten years in prison for a debt of 10,000l. which his creditors agreed to take a 1000l. for. His chief luxury was a pint of small beer, which he always examined carefully to see whether it was full before he paid for it, and about a penny worth of bread per day. His three farthing candle he always bought by weight, i. e. he had the heaviest of eight or ten for his money. He was never known to have a joint of meat on his table—His coat had been for many years so old and faithful a servant that it had long wanted a nap. His wig would have disgraced a crow's nest. In his last illness being told by an apothecary that his dissolution was rapidly approaching, "Well," said he with a sort of lambent smile, "In that case I shall wipe off a debt of 100,000l." Notwithstanding these shocking vices, they were mingled with some unaccountable instances of benevolence (whilst he was in the habit of weighing his candle, or measuring his small beer) he to the last gave weekly orders for a stone or two of meat to be divided among a few poor house-keepers in the neighbourhood.
Rockingham, H. NOTICE is hereby given, that Mark Noble, Jr. Robert Noble, John Noble and Joseph Noble, all of Portsmouth, in said county, have petitioned the Judge of Probate, for said county, representing that they and Thomas Roach and others, to them unknown, are tenants in common, of a certain island in Piscataqua river, and in said county, commonly called Jackson's island, that they, the petitioners own one third part thereof, that they are desirous of occupying their said part in severality.—And therefore praying said Judge to order partition thereof to be made according to law; whereupon it is ordered that they be heard at the Probate Court to be holden at Exeter, in said county, on the third Wednesday of November next, at three o'clock afternoon, when any person interested in said island, may have opportunity to make objections to granting such order.
By order of the Judge, Wm. PARKER, Register. Exeter, Oct. 25, 1794.

His Highness the Stadtholder, MADE TO THE States of Holland and West-Friesland,
In the Assembly on the 4th of August, 1794, relative to a general recruiting abroad, and a levy of the inhabitants at home.
HIGH AND MIGHTY LORDS,
On the 14th ult. I laid before the Assembly of your High Mightinesses, my genuine opinion respecting the present situation of the affairs of this Republic, with regard to the enemy's approaching her frontiers.
Your High Mightinesses, and the Lords States of some Provinces, have already openly adopted those opinions as their own, evincing the strongest disposition, to help to take efficacious measures for supporting the common cause;
Meanwhile, High and Mighty Lords, your High Mightinesses, and all the Colleagues and Departments which can contribute to the means of defence have not been behind hand.
The war is expensive, I acknowledge, and the present one more expensive than any war ever waged before;
I cannot, therefore, sufficiently recommend to your High Mightinesses, and to the respective provinces, to employ all possible means to put the finances in a proper state, and to collect speedily the expenses which the defence of the state absolutely requires.
It appeared to me, that this defence may be considered in two ways, namely, as external and internal;
No one doubts that the army of the State sustained a great loss in several bloody actions, by sickness, ordinary deaths, and other misfortunes;
This measure, if it be approved by your High Mightinesses, would make the country scarcely incur greater expenses than the advancing of the monies, which will be collected, and the pay of the officers who shall be employed without this State on this general recruiting service.
The reason why I propose this recruiting service abroad, is, that I may not cross another measure, which I deem extremely necessary, namely, the levy of a considerable corps of the inhabitants of the country, for the defence of the respective provinces.
In my opinion, the manner in which this levy, or recruiting can be effected, ought to be left to the different provinces themselves;
Though at the same time, the mode of this levy is to be left to the provinces I believe, however, that some preliminary points ought to be settled, which ought to be observed as general rules in this operation, namely,
that those men ought to be ranged in corps, regulated under such changes as their organization may render necessary, on the footing of regular troops;
I bring once more these propositions into the bosom of your High Mightinesses;

PITTSBURGH, Oct. 11. Resolutions of the Delegates of townships of the 14th of August, assembled at Parkinson's Ferry on the 2d of October, agreeable to the notice in the Pittsburgh Gazette.
Resolved—THAT it is the unanimous opinion of this meeting, that if the signature of the submission be not universal, it is not so much owing to any existing disposition to oppose the laws, as to want of time and information to operate a correspondent sentiment;
Resolved unanimously—That we will submit to the laws of the United States, that we will not directly or indirectly oppose the execution of the acts for raising a revenue on distilled spirits and stills,
Resolved unanimously—That in our opinion in the four counties of Pennsylvania westward of the Alleghany mountains, there is a general disposition to submit to all laws of the United States, and determination to support the civil authority in their execution.
Resolved unanimously—That William Findlay of Westmoreland county, and David Redick of Washington county, be appointed Commissioners to wait on the President of the United States, and Governor of Pennsylvania, with a copy of these resolutions, and to explain to government the present state of this country, and detail such circumstances as may enable the President to judge whether an armed force be now necessary to support the civil authority in these counties.
Resolved unanimously—That the secretary transmit a copy of these resolutions by post to the President of the United States and to the Governor of Pennsylvania, and have them printed in the Pittsburgh Gazette.
ALEX. ADDISON, Sec'y. NEW-YORK, Oct. 18. Extract of a letter from an American gentleman, dated London, 20th August.

BOSTON, October 27.
Jacobins Triumphant!
CAPTURE OF SLUYS. —AUTHENTIC—
BY a gentleman of undoubted veracity, who arrived in this town last Friday evening, from New-York, which place he left after the Mail, and came via Providence—we have the following agreeable Intelligence:
That Sluys, which was said in the last English papers to have been abandoned by the French forces who besieged it, had actually surrendered to the arms of the Republic.
The gentleman, our informant, further says, that he is well acquainted with the Captain of the vessel, and had conversed with him fully on the subject; and has no doubt of its authenticity.
He also informs us, that Rotterdam, a principal sea port in Holland, was besieged by the French Troops; who had burnt the Gun Boats, under the command of the celebrated Sir SYDNEY SMITH, which were dispatched from England to the assistance of the Dutch.
The vessel from Hamburg, was under the command of Capt. CHAMPLIN, and belongs to the house of MERTORRE and CHAMPLIN, of New-York.
The gentleman had with him at Newport and Providence, the Evening Papers of New-York, containing this interesting account, but in unpacking his chest he laid them on the table in his lodgings and unfortunately left them, very much to his mortification.
He further reports that Gen. PICHEGRU had been at Paris, and had returned to his command with orders from the Convention to pursue his operations with redoubled vigour.
It was reported on Saturday, on Change that the dates destroyed the credibility of the information, but the present account may be depended upon in all its particulars, as we have given them not without repeated inquiries and the fullest satisfaction.
Vive la Republique!

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.
