MONTMORIN.
THIS TOWN, laid out at the solicitation of several Gentlemen, is delightfully situated on the north bank of the Ohio river, on a beautiful plain that is not liable to be overflowed, in a healthy and fertile country, about 18 miles below Fort Pitt, on the road to Fort Mifflin, in Washington county, in the State of Pennsylvania, and at the ancient settlement formerly called Logstown, which was abandoned previous to the peace of 1763, where an extensive trade was carried on many years.
MONTMORIN commands an extensive view of the river; the soil is equal to any on the Ohio, and abounds in coal; the navigation from thence down the river is superior to that of Fort Pitt, as the water is at all seasons much deeper at this place, and where provisions, boats, &c. may in a little time be as well furnished. It is on the great communication route from the Eastern and middle States to the Muskingum, Miami and Kentucky settlements; as well as the Illinois, Mississippi, &c. and will probably become the new country seat: the great emigrations to the Western country render it a very desirable spot, and afford a flattering prospect of its speedy establishment. The streets are spacious being all 66 feet wide; except Great George, Washington, Hancock and Clinton-streets, which are 99 feet; the squares are divided into 20 lots, from 44 to 47 feet front, and 220 feet in depth, and all the lots are accommodated with lanes. Five squares, or 100 lots, as distinguished in the plan, will be vested in trustees for public use, and to accommodate schools and religious societies of every denomination. The town lots will be numbered, and arranged by draught to prevent any kind of preference; and to facilitate the settlement, they will be sold at the moderate price of TEN DOLLARS each, to be paid on the delivery of certificates of purchase. Those who buy ten town lots, will be entitled to a five acre outlot, gratis.
The appropriation of the lots will be made under the superintendence or direction of the Honorable Thomas McKean, Chief Justice of Pennsylvania, Gen. Muhlenburgh and Heister, Matthew Clarkson and Richard Bachie, Esqrs. on or before the first of June next; after which, on application, indisputable titles in fee simple, agreeably to the said appropriation, will be delivered gratis to the purchasers, their agents or attorneys. Certificates for lots sold, and the plan of the town to be seen at the house of Mr. Levi Hollingsworth, Mr. Mark Wilson, Mr. Thomas Bradford, and at the Coffee House, Philadelphia; Mr. John Delafield, New-York; General Heister, Reading; John Hubley, Esq. Lancaster; Mr. Heckenvelder, Bethlehem; Major Isaac Craig, Fort Pitt; and Colonel Stephen Bayard, Elizabeth-Town, Westmorland County. ISAAC MELCHIER. Philadelphia, Sept. 10, 1787.
EXTRACT. Page 10, Colonel Bouquet's Expedition, 1764, Friday, Oct. 5. "In this day's march the army passed through Logstown, situated seveneen and a half miles sixty-seven perches, by the path, from Fort Pitt. This place was noted before the last war, for the great trade carried on there by the English and French; but its inhabitants, the Shawanese and Delaware, abandoned it in the year 1750. The lower town extended about 60 perches over a rich bottom to the foot of a low steep by degrees on the summit of which, near the declivity, stood the upper town, commanding a most agreeable prospect over the lower, and quite across the Ohio, which is about 500 yards wide here, and by its majestic easy current adds much to the beauty of the place. Proceeding beyond Logstown we passed through a fine country, &c."
*** Those who are desirous of further information respecting the soil and situation of Montmorin, are referred to Governor St. Clair, General Irvine, General Morgan and Matthew Clarkson, Esquires, or any other gentleman acquainted in the Western Country.

The American Songster:
Being a select Collection of the most celebrated American, English, Scotch and Irish Songs. "Music has charms to sooth a savage breast," "To soften rocks, and bend the knotted oak." Virg. Price, neatly bound and lettered, Five Shillings.
To the Lovers of Music in the United States of America.
Ladies and Gentlemen, IT has been a subject of considerable regret, that a Collection of the best Modern Songs, not only the production of America, but likewise those of Britain has never before appeared on this continent. To remedy which, the Editors have been at considerable labor in collecting from the most esteemed Song Books, published in Europe, a compilation, suitable in some degree to this country.
To this collection the Fair Americans may safely have recourse, without the fear of a blu h upon their cheeks, or offending the most rigid virtue; nor can the gentlemen be more pleased by the particular attention shown to the Ladies than by the compliment we pay to their good sense, in avoiding all manner of indecent songs and double entendres.
Here will be found a number of original songs, the production of the American Muse: we are only sorry it has not been in our power to collect a greater number of these at the present time. But providing the present volume meets with encouragement from the Public, the Editors have in contemplation to publish a second, when they flatter themselves they will be able to exhibit most of the principal songs wrote in the United States. However, if in this collection we have put a cheerful and entertaining companion into the hands of the Ladies and gentlemen of America, we trust, on their part, they will encourage the rising arts of their native country, which will particularly oblige their very humble servants, The PUBLISHERS.

THE PRINCIPLES OF THE
LATIN GRAMMAR,
EXPLAINED in a manner suited to the capacity of beginners; with Notes and Observation, calculated for those who have made proficiency in the Classics. By JAMES HARDIE, A.B. Teacher of the GREEK and LATIN Languages, NEW-YORK.
WE, the President and professors of Columbia College, whose names are hereunto subscribed, do certify that we have examined a new publication entitled "the principles of the Latin Grammar" explained, &c. by James Hardie, and that we find it an accurate and judicious compilation calculated for the instruction of youth in the rudiments of the Latin language, and such as may be useful even to those who have made considerable progress therein. We therefore recommend it to all who are entrusted with the care of education, and particularly to the teachers in the different schools of this State.
