L O N D O N, November 30.
M. Pouble, a surgeon at Paris, died there a short time since of a very extraordinary disease, in consequence of catching cold after a fatiguing walk. All his limbs became more or less painful, and by degrees became bent in different directions. His right leg and thigh were so bent, that the latter adhered to his belly and breast, and his leg was fixed in the same manner to his thigh. His head and vertebrae were stiff and motionless. After his death, on dissection, the bones were found soft and fragile, and the earthy part of them in a great degree destroyed—Instead of sinking, they swam in water. In the patient's life time it was remarked, when put into a warm bath, he floated, and required the assistance of two persons to keep him underwater. The faculty of physic at Paris consider this complaint as a species of medullary gout.
Dec. 15. The governor general of the Imperial dominions in the Low Countries, has presented a very spirited memorial to baron Hop, minister plenipotentiary from the States-General at the court of Brussels, in which the emperors grounds of complaint against the Dutch are stated as follow :
1. The trespass committed on the Austrian territory by entering it with an armed force, and entering the body of a soldier in the church yard of Doel, which the commander of the detachment asserted to belong in full sovereignty to the States-General.
2. The arresting their subjects, or causing them to be arrested, in the Austrian dominions without leave, and in contradiction to the Emperor's edicts.
3. The seizure of goods sent from Antwerp by the Scheld to the inhabitants of Flanders in Brabant, under pretence that all such goods should pass by the quay of Lillo.
4. The exaction of a new and unusual duty from all fishing boats belonging to the Emperor's subjects, every time they pass up or down the Scheld under pain of seizure.
5. The refusal to give satisfaction for a trespass committed by the governor of Lillo, in exercising his garrison on a spot of ground without the limits of the fortifications (consequently in the dominions of his Imperial majesty) and claiming the said spot as their property.
In answer to this the Dutch have transmitted a counter-memorial, in which they assert their claim to the territory of Doel, but profess their willingness to refer the matters in dispute to the decision of commissioners to be appointed by both parties.
Dec. 19. Lord Surrey, (son to the duke of Norfolk) observ'd at the beefsteak club a few days ago, in defending the necessity of a coalition, that the American war had stripped us of our coats and waistcoats, and that if some union of measures had not been adopted, we should by this time have been as naked as our first parents in Paradise.
Notwithstanding all the industry of the Dutch merchants, who have been indefatigable since the peace in recovering their trade: yet it is calculated in Holland, that they have not so many ships employed by at least three hundred, as they had before the war.
They write from Paris, that some extraordinary cabinets have lately been held at Versailles, and that great exertions are making at Brest to forward the repairs of some
ships of the line, which are expected to sail in the spring: but nothing transpires respecting their intended destination.
In the reign of Henry the IVth, of France, it was made to appear by the most authentic testimonies, that there had been in that kingdom, (principally in Paris and its environs) 8000 gentlemen slain in duels in the space of 17 years, during which period, no fewer than 7000 pardons had been issued from the chancery, by the royal authority.
Extract of a letter from Paris, October 24.
"We have had another phenomenon, which is, perhaps, the greatest of all; a girl of eight years old, has given her mother's child suck, with her bosom naked, in the presence of the college of surgeons. She is a peasant's daughter, and has had the most essential marks of puberty regularly for this year past."
Extract of a letter from Dublin, Nov. 5.
"On Saturday the 1st of this month, died suddenly, in Dublin, Miss Clancy, daughter of the late William Clancy, formerly one of the most considerable merchants in Dublin.—The circumstances of this lady's death are very extraordinary: on the morning of her decease, she told the family, she had passed a most disagreeable night, having dreamed, that her eldest sister, (a widow lady who resides in France) was dead, and that her ghost had appeared to her, to warn her of an immediate dissolution: at first, she refused to credit the ghost, declaring her health to be very good; but the apparition persevered in asserting, she had but few hours to live. This dream affected her much, but she was rallied out of her tears. She paid some morning visits, and then retired to her devotion. At dinner, she was very chearful, but suddenly dropped her knife and fork, complained of a violent pain in her head, and instantly expired."
Dec. 24. His present Majesty can say more than any of his family who sat on the throne of this country. He dissolved three Parliaments, made peace twice with France and Spain, quarrelled with Holland, lost thirteen Colonies in America, and gave up the Legislative jurisdiction over Ireland;—and all these revolutions and losses are solely to be attributed to the secret influence behind the Throne .
Dec. 27. Dr. Franklin has been some time founding his good friends on the possibility of his coming over, and remaining here as other Americans do, to observe events, catch at occasions, amuse our Ministry, gamble in our funds, and decoy our artists.—This is best to be done without a public character, which would render America responsible. The secret friends of this cunning man about the Alley have pronounced it safe and expedient that he should come, and he is packing up his all for England; but to appear as a philosopher; the honest jobbers to visit only in the dark.
The abate Fontana, the Dr. Priestly of Italy, has presented a memorial to his Sicilian Majesty, representing, that the least vent to take off the gas that arises from fermentation in the bowels of the earth, would be sufficient to prevent a dreadful earthquake; and recommending to the King to order a well to be dug a mile deep, in the lowest spot of the kingdom, not liable to be overflowed.
CHARLESTOWN, (S. Carolina) Dec. 27.
Yesterday evening arrived the Patty, Capt. Prole, from the Havanna, by whom we have received the following important intelligence, which may be depended on:—
Havanna, Dec. 6. By a packet just arrived from Carthagena, we have certain accounts of a most dangerous revolt in the kingdoms of Peru and Santa Fe, in South-America, inasmuch that it is believed they will shake off the Spanish government. It is also said, that three English ships of force have actually arrived in the South Sea with arms, &c. for the use of the revolted natives, and publickly declare their intention of doing only as France and Spain have done towards England, and her possessions in America."
Jan. 8. We are happy in assuring the public, that by the latest accounts from Hispaniola, that which was inserted in a former Gazette, of American vessels being excluded from the French trade, in that and other French West India islands, was premature.—The order was but temporary, and only restricted to the port of Cape Francois, thro' the request of many French merchants to the governor, who lately had glutted that market with flour. Every other port in that island was, and is open to us; and the governor, naval commander and others of the French nation are warmly disposed to confer every favor on the trading Americans. But we are assured that, in addition to the other restrictions which the king and ministry of Britain have lately laid on our trade, they have since imposed a heavy duty on our rice, imported into England.
PHILADELPHIA, March 16.
Extract of a letter from a gentleman in Charleston Suth Carolina, to his friend in this town, dated January 28, 1784.
"Our Legislature is now about meeting, when I expect a session of two months, having a great variety of business on hand. Several persons, formerly citizens, who left this place with the English, have returned to throw themselves upon the mercy of that body; but our wise and just ruler, the governor, will not permit them to set their foot on shore, or tread the ground of that country which, whilst with the British they endeavored to lay waste with merciless hands. Many of them even offer never to mention their estates taken by confiscation, if they shall be permitted to live here: but I am in hopes they will be ordered back, to live under their blessed king and good father George the Tyrant."
"Just as I was about closing my letter, a melancholy accident happened in this city, an hour ago. Mr. Grattan (a merchant here) was out from home: his two daughters and another young lady (Miss Gillideau) were in the store at work, when Miss Grattan's brother, a boy about 9 years old, came in and seeing a gun, took it up and fired it at the young ladies, which killed the youngest Miss Grattan on the spot and most dreadfully wounded his other sister, and Miss Gillideau. The unhappy boy immediately attempted to destroy himself, but was prevented: he was ignorant of the gun being loaded, and is now more composed. This, I think, is a sufficient warning to parents not to leave dangerous weapons in the way of children."

Extract of a letter from London, October 31:
"It was good policy (we are told) in the ministry, to put off the consideration of the commercial treaty with America, till such time as an experiment was made of the channel in which the majority of their trade was likely to flow. From all appearances, (say they) this country will still enjoy the largest share of their commerce, whether any new regulations take place or not: and therefore it would have been highly impolitic to offer them extraordinary indulgences, when they were inclined to prefer this country without them."
"The French have made us all balloon mad: and one Biaggini has actually advertised an exhibition, one (admittance 21 6d.) to be set off in a few days, under the direction of Le chevalier Zambeccaria."
The inhabitants of Fredericksburg in Virginia, have lately given the most flattering marks of respect and attachment to our late worthy Commander in Chief, by an affectionate address and elegant entertainment. On the General's approach to the place of entertainment he was saluted by a discharge of twenty-one rounds from the artillery.
The South Carolina Gazette, of Jan. 31, says, "Soon after the altercation between Mr. Flood and Mr. Grattan, they went to Hollyhead in Wales, and there fought in the Church Yard.—Mr. Grattan fired first, and lodged a ball in Mr. Flood's body, above the thigh bone. Mr. Flood then fired, and hit Mr. Grattan in the right arm. Mr. Flood's wound is said not to be mortal: Mr. Grattan's, from the nature of it, cannot be dangerous. The seconds interfered, after the first fire, but it is said, neither of the parties were reconciled."
Extract of a letter from Trenton, Feb. 22.
"It begins to be strongly suspected that the lucid body late discovered in the heavens, and generally supposed by the people of New-England to be a comet, is nothing more than one of the air-balloons lately invented in France, and perhaps directed this way for the diversion of sandy gentlemen of an erudite or speculative taste, who have a mind to take a peep at us incog. What strengthens this conjecture, is, that the Philosophical Society of Philadelphia has as yet taken no notice of the track, situation, or retrogradation of this supposed comet; which, no doubt they were early convinced is nothing more than a mere balloon, and, consequently, whose curvilinear direction or movement is not worth attending to."
KINGSTON, (Jamaica) Jan. 3.
A report prevails in town, of an official account from England having been received by the Roebuck, that Kingston is on the eve of being declared a free port to all the world; a confirmation of which would doubtless give general satisfaction.
TRENTON, March 2.
A correspondent at Annapolis informs us, that Virginia, by a late act, has empowered her Delegates in Congress to convey, by a deed, to the United States, all the lands on the north side of the Ohio—agreeably to the propositions some time since stated as conditional by Congress:—that business is much impeded, seven States only being represented on the floor, and the greater part pending before them indispensably required nine.
NEW-YORK, March 16.
There is at this time in London, a celebrated Chinese philosopher, who has attained the wonderful art of preparing looking-glass, so as to receive a lasting impression of any person standing before it. The exact likeness, dress, and every the most minute attitude of the object male or female, will be forever preserved as at the moment of appearance, nor can it be effaced but by the breaking of the glass; a single minute will perfect the operation.—His price is 50 guineas for a whole length.
On the 7th of January last, the Island of St. Christopher, was given up by the French, to the English, agreeable to treaty; and Nevis on the tenth.—The French in their hurry of business, neglected carrying of their king's arms that had been put up in the court house, in St. Christopher, which the populace, (to shew their gratitude) burnt with every token of infamy.
The fleur de Marbois, Councillor to parliament of his most Christian Majesty; having been recognized by the United States in Congress assembled, as Consul of France for the states of Pennsylvania and Delaware; and Consul General for the Thirteen United States of America, his Excellency Governor Clinton, the 13th instant, by proclamation, de-
clared that the privileges, pre-eminence, and authority, belonging to such character and quality, are due to him.
A correspondent informs us, that on the first day April next, about twenty Loyalists intend to read their recantation from the errors of the British government, and swear to become good citizens to this state. The converts will march in a body from Mr. Rivington's corner to the commons, near to the place where the Liberty Pole was erected.
By letters from France, via Philadelphia, we are informed that the Farmers-General, with an urbanity and disinterestedness that does them honor, lent six millions of livres to the Caisse d'Escompte, and immediately restored the public credit, which had before that undergone a little tremblement: all the debts of the Bank are likely to be liquidated in a very few weeks: they have resolved to add to their stock 1000 new shares, of 3500 livres each, which will form an increase of the funds of 35 millions of livres—the bills now in circulation amounts to 33 millions.
NEW-LONDON, March 26.
We hear that Congress have granted the Suckehannah Company a trial for the right of soil to our western lands; and that the assembly of Pennsylvania have put a stop to the cruelties which have been too long exercised on our peaceable settlers at Wyoming.
We further learn, that the fourth Monday in June next is the time set for the said Company (by their agents) to appear before Congress, and agree on the judges that are to decide the important question.
BOSTON, March 29.
Extract of a letter from a merchant in Jamaica to his correspondent here dated Feb. 20.
"You cannot conceive, my friend, the embarrassments we labor under, from the want of the produce of your country. The people here are continually cursing, first the King, then the ministry, and lastly the Governor. The madness and folly of England, though conspicuous for several years past, never appeared so openly as in the present prohibition. What the consequences will be God only knows."
A letter from Kitts, dated January 24, says, "I am happy to tell you, that by the last ships from England, we are to have a free trade with North-America, with this single restriction, that they shall not be carriers of any of the produce of the British islands to Great-Britain."
We hear that the Honorable the Directors of the Massachusetts Bank have purchased that elegant building, the Manufactory house, for that laudable institution.
Colonel Anderson and Major Croghan lately set out for Richmond, in Virginia by appointment of the Legislature, to survey and lay off the lands appropriated for the officers of that State.
An advertisement in the New-London paper of March 19, gives notice, that the lamps are again burning at the lighthouse, the entrance of that harbour, and will be continued.
The sloop Providence, Capt. Lewis Thomas, belonging to Providence, was unfortunately cast away on a reef of rocks off Cape Francois, the 14th of January last—Vessel and cargo lost, people saved,

Portsmouth, March 26, 1784.

State of New-Hampshire. In the year of our L O R D, one thousand seven hundred and eighty-three. An ACT for the partition of certain lands held in common and undivided, by and between Thomas Martin, John Peirce, and Joseph Peirce, and the Heirs of Margaret Green, deceased.
WHEREAS Thomas Martin, and John Peirce, of Portsmouth, in the county of Rockingham, and state of New-Hampshire, and Joseph Peirce, of a place called the Gore, in the county of Strafford, and state aforesaid, have petitioned the General Assembly of this state, setting forth that they are tenants in common of sundry tracts of land lying in diverse parts of this state, with the heirs of Margaret Green, late of Halifax, deceased; that the said Thomas, John, and Joseph, owned almost fifteen sixteenths of said lands, and the said heirs, many of whom are minors and British subjects, residing in England and Nova-Scotia, owned the other sixteenth; that it was of very great importance to the said Thomas, John, and Joseph, to have the same lands divided; that they had during the course of the war been obliged to pay the taxes on the whole of said lands, while disqualified from making sale of any part of said lands, which they might have occasion to sell, so as the purchasers might have a title thereto in severality; that as the lands lay in every county in this state, the common method for making partition of lands as pointed out by the laws of this state, would be very troublesome and expensive.
Wherefore they prayed, that a person or persons might be appointed to represent said heirs, and in their behalf truly and impartially to make partition with the said Thomas, John, and Joseph, of the lands aforesaid. Which petition being read and considered, and the prayer thereof appearing reasonable:
Therefore, it is hereby enacted by the Council and House, of Representatives for said State, in General Assembly convened, That Ebenezer Smith, Esq; be and hereby is appointed and empowered for and in behalf of said heirs, to make a just and impartial partition of said lands, with the said Thomas Martin, John Peirce, and Joseph Peirce; for which purpose, the said Ebenezer Smith, Esq; is hereby fully authorised as agent for said heirs, to make, execute, and acknowledge good and sufficient partition deed or deeds of the lands which may be agreed to be the parts or shares of the said Thomas Martin, John Peirce, and Joseph Peirce, in the lands so held in common and undivided, and to receive from the said Thomas Martin, John Peirce, and Joseph Peirce, good and sufficient partition deed or deeds in behalf of the said minors of the part or share that may be agreed to be severed and set off for their use in the lands aforesaid, which said partition deeds being made and executed, shall be effectual in law, and binding on all the said tenants in common, of the lands aforesaid.
And whereas by such severance of said lands now held in common, the right which said tenants in common might have of prosecuting for any trespass committed on said lands while held in common, may be destroyed; to prevent which,
It is hereby further enacted by the authority aforesaid, That after partition of said lands be made as aforesaid, the person or persons to whom any part or parts thereof shall be divided and set off, on which any trespass or trespasses may have been committed before such partition made, such person or persons, their heirs, executors and administrators, shall have a right to prosecute in his or their own name or names, any action or actions, proper in law for the recovery of damages for any trespass or trespasses which may have been committed on the part or parts of the land that may be set off to him or them in the division of said lands; any law, usage or custom to the contrary notwithstanding. And it is hereby further enacted by the authority aforesaid, That prior to the making partition of said lands, the said petitioners shall cause the substance and design of said act to be published three weeks successively in the New-Hampshire Gazette; the expense whereof, as well as the cost of making said partition, shall be paid by said petitioners.
