THIS Stage starts from the GEORGE Tavern, at the corner of Second and Arch Streets, in Philadelphia, every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday, at 7 o'clock; in the morning it arrives at Dover the first day, at Snowhill the second day, at Northampton Court House the third day, and on the morning of the fourth day, the passengers find a safe and comfortable packet to convey them to Norfolk. A packet leaves Norfolk for Northampton ferry, every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday, and the Stage starts from this ferry for Philadelphia, every Monday, Wednesday and Friday; puts up at Snow Hill the first night, at Dover the 2d night, and arrives in Philadelphia in the evening of the third day.

At the Federal Blast Furnace,
In Carver—for Sitting, Plating, and Rolling MILLS. SEYMOUR's Patent Rollers. THEIR superiority consists in being free from holes and honey-combed places, which are commonly found in rollers cast in sand, or clay moulds. These patent rollers are cast in iron moulds, previously heated, and will be found to be more dense, solid and durable than any rollers heretofore used. Another important advantage they have over others, is, that the necks require no turning, but are immediately fit for use, and from their accuracy, run with less friction, and require less water to make them perform their work. They may be had by application to the Patentee in Plymouth, of Gen. Nathaniel Goodwin, or of Messrs. Thatcher and Hayward. Boston, Aug. 31. Sept. 19. 56t

From the FARMER'S WEEKLY MUSEUM.
FROM THE SHOP OF PETER QUINCE.
A MARYVELLOUS ODE.
The mock Peter is moved by a great performance: Peter burrows himself to say obsequies; maketh a courteous address; forgetteth his subject and beholdeth most favorably. Peter is severely reprimanded; poketh his finger in his mouth, and walketh off.
WHAT plain dress, down cast, sober looking, Now loosed dame;
With hair like capring goats, that seek their fold, And hum, like palm-tree bound with rays of gold; Brevallier twine-rods, that leap o'er fields of wheat, And join to like jewels coming and complete— It that—good John—who moves towards my shop, "I know not fir."—Then go and ask his name.
"'Tis one Miss Witsom as they call 'er."
Zounds!—run—kick dust—camper—fly;
Get my left wig, clean shirt, and suit of fatin;
My speech composed of Hebrew, Greek, and Latin,
And that your business keep a good sharp eye,
Let no one know who 'tis your master's got—
For if you do; our masters so to pot,
And all the wise men will break in and shall 'er.
Now, for a neat address in native tongue,
Such as blind Milton hid from Beelzebub,
When the old rebel meant heaven's law to drub,
And from his grinning, ghastly, demons sprung.
Not Johnson, tow'ring o'er vast hills of speech,
E'er made so fine a figure as meet Peter;
When to her ladyship his hand did reach,
And she squat down for him to greet her.
"I know thee well"—thou art of birth divine;
Through veil'd in such disguise, thou art
So high, so towering and of godly stature;
O' looking high immensity of nature,
That neither Adam, Moses, David,
Nor Sampson, (curs'd by being shaved)
Could ever gain the language of thy heart;
Or worship freely at thy radiant shrine.
"It's true there was one Solomon, a clever chap;
But rather amorous and fly—
On whom you cast a very lech'rous eye,
And lent him for a while your gown and cap;
By which he gain'd admittance 'mong the miffs;
Talk'd pert, said smart things to their head;
Play'd with their flails—then treated them with kisses
And coax'd the little gypsies into bed.
"Twas very fine in you, Miss Prim—most charming,
I truly think you a dear sweet soul;
Equal to Mr. Foot's good Granny Cole—
Only, in some points, more alarming.
Thou tornest fun, and moon, and stars—all-top-
try-tury;
Poking your nose into earth's smallest pore,
Unlocking nature's very kitchen door;
Squinting at ev'ry mole, rock, hill and crater,
And lovely padding in all sorts of water—
That much I wonder you've escap'd the scurvy.
Sometimes, indeed, we see you gay and nimble,
Having your mighty head of business full;
At others, in thy cavity of skull—
There is not sense enough to fill a thimble.
Sometimes, like lion, loud we hear you roaring,
Shaking the very center of creation;
Fright'ning of earth each tribe, town, state
and nation;
And then again, like gentle whisper soft,
Thou fear'st like thy pond'rous head aloft—
But drop'st thy whisper in oblivion's mooring.
This is fine conduct—Marian—very fine;
Becoming such a pretty "babe of grace"
With your long, solemn, fan-dimious face,
And pucker'd lips, like saint in long divine.
Was it not you, who drove my cousin Peter,
To say the Jacobins had sinking souls;
Had consciences as black as coals,
And understandings peaked as a beeter?
If so—by heavens—you do defer a trouncing;
Because you made him tell a monstrous lie.
Peter well knows, with all their tricks and
bouncing.
They know no more of conscience than a fly;
Bargain'd away their souls some years or more,
And took their pay in afganats and flour!
Now, Miss—what think you of your mighty know-
ledge?
You never saw the angel face of PEARSON?
Who blackguards genius like a whore's son,
And rubs his tailso'le 'gainst Cambridge College.
Was ever you to college, Miss?—'Not long, Sir,'
And saw the great white wig, 'heard prayers' and speeches?
"I saw the wig, red face and pair of breeches—
"With all the stiff pedantry through, Sir."
Then, Madam, we must part—indeed we must;
I've certain reasons of a private nature.
Now gentle reader, call this—"ODE the 1st."
And next week you shall have the self same matter.

Governor of the said Commonwealth.
A PROCLAMATION.
WHEREAS, the Inspectors of the Health Office of the Port of Philadelphia, have reported to me, that in their judgment, it is no longer necessary to impose a general quarantine on vessels arriving in this port, from
any of the West-India islands, from New Orleans, or from any British, French, Dutch, or Spanish ports on the Maine.—
THEREFORE, I have issued this proclamation, hereby revoking the proclamations heretofore by me issued, bearing date the eleventh and fifteenth days of August last;
and allowing and permitting all vessels whatsoever, arriving from any part beyond seas, to enter the port of Philadelphia, without being subject to the performance of quarantine, unless the resident physician shall on visiting any such vessel, deem the same to be in a sickly and dangerous state, when such reasonable quarantine shall be performed, as the Inspectors of the port shall direct and establish.
GIVEN under my hand, and the great Seal of the State, at Germantown, this twentieth day of October, in the year of our Lord one thousand seven hundred and ninety-seven and of the commonwealth the twenty-second.
THOMAS MIFFLIN.
By the Governor,
JAMES TRIMBLE, Deputy Sec'y.
A correspondent remarks, that the answer of the Secretary of State to the Spanish Minister's appeal, is one of those complete refutations which leaves no room for an amplifying idea. It is neat, explicit and decisive. It breathes the spirit of an independent American, and a just sense of national, official and personal respect. It will be read with pleasure by every impartial mind; by every citizen of the United States who loves his country with kindred feelings of patriotism and conscious dignity.
COMMUNICATIONS.
The free and most pointed animadversions on French affairs which have appeared in the gazettes of this country, were copied from French papers. Foreigners may brandish their goose quills against the United States, but the greatest calumniators of the American character are the writers in the Aurora, Argus and Chronique. These three papers have however been lying to very little purpose for the last five or six years, as is evidenced by the numbers of emigrants who continue to flock into the country. Had any faith been put in the representations of these fashionists, Europeans must have supposed the people in a state of misery and slavery, and the rulers tyrants and monsters.
The representations of the characters and conduct of men in office, as given in the Jacobin gazettes, are wholly destitute of foundation. They do not believe them themselves, the people do not believe them—if they did, it would be easy for the Jacobins to complete their plan of overturning the government.
If these lying varieties obtained credit in any quarter of the Union, infurrection would be a most sacred duty there.
Volumes of abuse have been written against the people of America, particularly of the eastern States, by various rangers of high church and intolerant memory. The scribblers never found their advantage in their publications—they become shop lumber, as soon as they became extant.
It seems that former ill success has not discouraged them from recent similar attempts at defamation. The Editor of the Aurora has found some precious morsels for his paper in a late publication of this stamp from the pen of a Prussian. There is however more falsehood than malignity in the samples given, but this deficiency is amply supplied by the comments of the transcriber.
If the Editor of the Aurora wishes to procure for his paper, blackguardisms on the people of New England, he may be furnished with a better assortment than his Prussian author. De Bulow can give, from a book written more than forty years since.
The antifederal faction have labored for years to prove that the majority of the people is with them; notwithstanding which the printers who are in opposition to the government complain of not being supported. Some of the champions of antifederalism have tried various situations, without success, and the prospect does not brighten. They charge their failure to the neglect of the wealthy part of the community. How reasonable this may be is left to themselves to determine. It certainly is not a very natural expectation, that they should be encouraged in their efforts to undermine that constitution and those laws which form the only bulwark to life, liberty and property. The truth is, every man who possesses property, or expects to acquire it by honest industry, under the protection of just laws, must be opposed to the antifederal faction; the majority therefore is against them. After all it must be acknowledged that some of these gazettes have been and still are supported, to the great disgrace of our country. The means, it is true, are invisible; still they are supported. This number is however small.
A Hint to returning PHILADELPHIANS.
The return of our fellow-citizens will, doubtless excite great caution, and every possible exertion ought to be made to procure perfect cleanliness throughout the city; but it should be remembered that the causes of disease generally lurk in hidden places; mere external purification, therefore, (though pleasing to the eye) will not chase away the enemy.
Among the various modes that will probably be suggested, I hope I shall be pardoned for mentioning one, which, though by no means new, may not be generally adopted without a hint from some of your correspondents.
Let every house-keeper buy half a bushel of quick lime, let it be pounded fine and scattered throughout the cellars, vaults, sinks, and damp places of every description.
I will venture to assert, that if this could be universally done at one moment, the whole city might be completely cleaned in half an hour.
To persons, tolerably acquainted with chemistry, this method of imbibing foul air will be understood to be infallible; but it may not be amiss to inform the more num-
rous class of your readers, that lime is a stone or earth deprived, by fire, of both air and moisture; that when in that state it will attract to itself what it has been deprived of, as readily as a dry sponge will take up water; and that, by this absorption of the more weighty and noxious part of the atmosphere, the remaining part will become pure.
I have gone into a cellar so very offensive, that not only my nose but even my eyes suffered extremely; but after I had raised a fog of lime about me, the air became as agreeable as it was in the street.
I am content that the simplicity of this address should raise a smile among philosophers, if the less enlightened and equally valuable part of the community should follow my advice.
SENEX.
A young cow of five years old, brought to our market by Mr. Philip Alberger, victualler (at Hall No. 31) weighed as follows, to wit:
Neat beef 690 lbs.
Tallow and suit 242 1 2
The hide 70
The very extraordinary quantity of fat in proportion to the weight of beef, will not fail to draw the attention and surprise of the grazer and victualler; and we publish it under the best assurance that the weights are truly given.
Communication.
In the neighborhood of Hoebock-Ferry are to be found a considerable number of serpents of the kind denominated Copperheads; their bite is very venomous; the poison diffusing itself in a short time over a considerable part of the body, and producing fatal consequences, unless an immediate antidote is applied.
A few weeks since a negro man who had been at work in the fields of his employer, there took up a log of wood on his shoulder, which was hollow nearly through from one end and carried it home for his evening fire.
His wife and children (as is usually the case in the country) had retired to rest in one corner of the room, and he was set down at the fire, and nearly overpowered with sleep, when he perceived an enormous snake, of the kind above mentioned, sliding softly out of the corner just before him.
Although powerfully impelled by fear to attempt its immediate destruction, he knew it would be dangerous to move left the snake should spring at him.
He therefore remained quiet, and only followed the motions of the serpent with his eyes, which, (with an erect head and a noise resembling the cluck of a hen for her chickens) glided backward and forward across the room, while a cat followed the windings of its tail, and frequently laid her paw upon it, without being noticed by the reptile.
At length the serpent approached the fire again and re-entered the wood, which the negro perceiving, he immediately stopped the aperture, and kindling up a large fire, drew the log across it, where it remained till the serpent was consumed. [Time-Piece]

Refutations on the principles of the formation of Political Society.
A Curious political work has made its appearance in France, in which the author endeavours to support the position that war has every where been the originating cause of the first political associations.
In an army behold the type, the rough sketch of the early social state; and hence, too, is it, that monarchy has been every where the first predominant form of government.
He distinguishes, in every kind of organized society, three essential constituting elements, from the various properties of which are derived all the distinctions of political forms.
These three elements, are strength, or power; wisdom; and genius, or in other words democracy, aristocracy, and monarchy.
Whatever may be the formation of a state, or whatever its political denomination, these three elementary principles ever exist therein, and more or less preponderate. Power is ever in the hands of the people, or multitude; magistracy, nobility, and enlightened citizens, of public spirit, represent wisdom and sagacity; but genius resides with monarchy, or at least in that creative sentiment of society, called legislation, the image of supremacy; or in other words a king, a senate, a president, or whatever may be the term of the representation of the majority of the people.
Look at an army: the soldiers represent democracy, or strength; to the officers, whose business it is to preserve discipline and order, is entrusted the care of regular action. These are the men who, for their own interest, slaves to any body that will pay them for existing in idleness, levy a useless contribution on the industrious.
Monarchy has in all ages attached whatever it found any thing like genius to itself. It is time the tables were turned. As has been often asked, what is monarchy? Evidently the conspiracy of the cunning few, against the ignorant and undesigning many.
If genius is of any worth in the world, it should evidently turn its attention to the equality of mankind: of what common value is ability while it continues enlisted under the flag of self-interested monarchy? Let us examine matters right, and we shall find, that the three elementary principles of all monarchy are found in what is called an army.
Poor democracy, and uninformed cannon-dragging animals, are the support of the system.
The general, in an army, is always supposed to direct even the minutest movements of bodies of men (combined to fight against each other, frequently no one knows for what). From the opinions or abilities of these generals is the whole army actuated. Under an absolute general the body of an army are enslaved, and, for the most trifling faults, are led to cruel and degrading punishments; tortured, perishing beneath the feverish of a thousand lashes! These things should be done away.
Possibly, from what appears to be the nature of mankind, this theory cannot in all points be supported. However that may be, legislators should know, that every just
government, and embracing the rights of mankind, should include within itself the germ of its reproduction in point of durability and perfection.
Such a system should embrace the equal rights of every member of a community, the radical means of national prosperity, and the interests of nations with whom a commercial intercourse ought to be maintained.
Hence, we should see the perfection of human society, man without wars; and even if he chose to concentrate his authority in an individual, or a body of men, putting it out of his or their power to trample on the multitude and make them nothing.
The influence of reason alone can make man himself, or induce him to act up to the dignity, sublimity, and honor of his nature.
This nature is progressive (beyond all doubt to perfection) like a rude plant of the earth, which is ever improvable. And in the history of the human mind, if we do not attend to this principle of its natural progression to virtue, we shall find all dark and gloomy, and perhaps feel ourselves secretly inclined to reflect upon the wisdom of the creative power, in which there can be no error.
This writer, in the application of his theory to the business of the world, after arranging and duly weighing all those balances of government, so much talked of, concludes that a well adjusted limited monarchy is the natural government for man.
With a grand and superb aristocracy, with an order of nobility, placed between the monarch and the people, or their representative. Such a government (the writer supposes) would contain within itself a check on the unbridled strength of the people, as well as upon the secret designs of ambitious usurpers of their liberties.
But, in that complicated machine, called social government, the real rights of the many have ever been sacrificed to mere hypotheses and theory, and other abstract principles that men have never understood or resisted; and like the miserable jargon called law, has served to enslave and corrupt them.
If man wishes to be free, he must revert to simple principles, and not surrender himself to be deluded with that fictitious stuff, that refinement of state policy, which has ever enslaved him, and degraded his nature.
This writer, in advocating limited monarchy, has not adverted to its abuses, which have constantly prevented its amelioration of the human condition.
From the WESTERN TELEGRAPHE.
Reason suggests that in every government, there is an absolute unlimited power, which naturally and originally seems to be placed in the whole body, whenever the executive part of it subsists.
This observation holds in the body natural; "for wherever we place the beginning of motion, whether from the head, the heart or the animal spirits in general, the body moves and acts by acquiescence of all its parts."
This unlimited power placed fundamentally in the body of a people, is what the legislators of all ages have endeavoured in their several schemes and institutions of government, to deposit in such hands as would preserve the people from rapine and oppression within, as well as violence from without.
This absolute power was never constitutionally vested in the Roman people, as some writers have asserted; though ostensibly it was, by enacting a law, that no person should bear any magistracy in Rome, without the consent of the commons.
Accordingly we find, that the two first consuls were nominated by the nobles, and the nomination was confirmed by the commons.
Their annual election for some time produced a laudable emulation, morality was promoted, the most cordial union prevailed and not selfish pursuits, they were determined to equity and right, not more by force of laws, than by a natural propensity; the only strife, the only dissensions they exercised, were against the public enemy.
By two principal means, valour in war, and righteous conduct in peace, they supported their own reputation, and that of the common weal. But the commons soon began to feel the effects of ill-balanced power. Harassed with debts, they take up arms and leave the city in mutiny and discontent, refusing to return, if they could not be acquitted of all their debts, and magistrates chosen out of their own order, whose business it should be to defend the commons from the oppression of the nobility.
Their creditors compounded, and magistrates were granted, whose persons were considered sacred. The commons now in their turn, abused the nobility with a torrent of scandalous outrages. They gave themselves up to precipitate acts of vengeance, and in order to procure it, followed blindfold the guidance of those who encouraged them to seek it; followed their demagogues and favourites, more dangerous masters than the grandees of the senate, because implicitly trusted, and consequently more powerful.
They became the dupes of every incendiary, if he were only recommended by the merit of loudly inveighing against their former oppressors. Thus they suffered the brutal Marius, in opposition to the grandees, to hurt themselves more, and to bring more disorder and desolation on the state, than all the grandees the worst and most criminal, had done before him.
But under our benign government, no constitutional distinctions subsist. The poor, honest, sensible man may act in a legislative capacity, if chosen by his fellow citizens.

PROVIDENCE, Oct. 16. Communication. All who have any taste for improvement in the Machinery used in Manufactures, must be highly gratified by viewing the gin-dillery belonging to col. Daniel Tillinghast, late of this town, erected at Uxbridge the present season, under his own direction. The work is all done under one roof, and may literally be said to be done by water. The water used in the cisterns and worm tubs is conveyed through a log, from a small but never-failing pond, raised for the purpose of grinding the grain, and moving the other machines. The liquor is pumped from the cisterns into the stills by water—the liquor in the stills and cisterns is stirred by water—and the grains, which run from the stills into a cistern, are pumped by water into the trough in front of the cattle. The Machinery is so simple as to be easily understood, and is hardly liable to get out of order. If we compare this mode of doing the business with that which is sometimes used, the contrast appears very striking. The grain is generally ground by horses, or carried Miles to Mill—the immense quantities of water used in the cisterns and worm-tubs, are frequently pumped by horses from a deep well—the liquor in the stills and cisterns is stirred by hand—the liquor is pumped from the cisterns into the stills by hand—and the grains for the cattle are pumped by hand. In a country like this, where labour is scarce and dear, every improvement in Machinery for saving labour in adding so much wealth to the nation.

NEW-YORK, October 02. We are informed that the troops under the command of Lieutenant Marshall, on Ellice's Island, are under marching orders for Port Mary, on the Mississippi—it is expected they will sail for New-Brunswick on Monday next, whence they will proceed on their march. On the 26th ult. His Majesty's ship Experiment, capt. Saville, sailed from Halifax for England. In this ship went passengers, Lt. Col. Layard, Lt. Col.

The following is re-printed from a paper of 1793, and, as four years has since elapsed, our readers will see how the prophecy has thus far been fulfilled—and from thence what faith is due to the future: INTERESTING PROPHECY. The following was handed ns, in print, by a gentleman lately from London. It is presented to our readers as we received it, as a support of their faith in the Millennium, which, we hope can be supported by scripture-reason, and the opinions of pious men, that it WILL COME and the time soon.—[1 Thess. V. 20, 27.]
"DEAR SIR, "EVER found, as I know you are, of what is curious, I have sent you a copy of a remarkable prophecy, lately found in Paris, and transmitted from a gentleman there, to his friend in London; who writes, that it was engraved on a flag-stone, two yards square, in Hebrew characters, and very elegantly inlaid with gold. It is supposed to have lain near 600 years, under an old wall, taken down by the late king of France, to be rebuilt. On removing the rubbish from the foundation, this stone was discovered. "Permit me to assure you, that I heard it from a man of very strict veracity and honor, who is expert at Hebrew, and on whom I can rely for the truth of the circumstance. As it predicts a most glorious and universal revolution in 1800, I heartily congratulate you on the welcome news. I do expect

great changes will take place here. The Millennium will soon come, I have been long satisfied in my own mind; may you and I prepare for it. O may we live to see the really Illustrious Descendant alluded to; who, if this be true, must be now alive, past infancy, probably in Europe; perhaps in England; is the sincere wish of, fir, your affectionate friend and servant, B.

"In the year 1791, there will be a war amongst many of the European powers against France. "1792, more of the Christian powers engaged in the war. "1793, the war encreases throughout Europe. "1794, there will be a few or no forms of religion observed in France. "1795, there will be a destructive diffusion among the powers of Europe. "1796, there will be a great slaughter, and much blood-shed, by land and sea. "1797, there will appear a Gog and Magog, that will make war against all nations in the world. "1798, there will be a great destruction that will thin the inhabitants of the earth. "1799, there will come a Descendant of David, who will perform such Acts of Grace from the power derived from Almighty God, as to destroy Gog and Magog—and will cause, in "1800, the remnant of all nations to be of one religion, and no more wars among men, who will be forever after in bonds of friendship, equality, and unfeigned love towards God and one another. "By Gog and Magog, I apprehend we may understand the open and secret enemies of evangelical liberty and equality, or of genuine christianity.

FROM AN ENGLISH PAPER. A Letter from a Successful Adventurer in a Lottery.
SIR, You will not be at all surprised when I tell you that I have very ill luck in the lottery; but you will stare when I further tell you, it is because unluckily I have got a considerable prize in it. I received the glad tidings of misfortune last Saturday night from your Chronicle, when, on looking over the list of prizes, as I was got behind my pipe at the club, I found that my ticket was come up a 2000l. In the pride as well as joy of my heart, I could not help proclaiming to the company my good luck, as I then foolishly thought it, and the company thought it too, by insisting that I should treat them that evening. Friends are never so merry, or stay longer, than when they have nothing to pay; they never care how extravagant they are on such an occasion. Bottle after bottle was therefore called for, and that too of claret, tho' not one of us, I believe, but had rather have had port. In short, I reeled home as well as I could about four in the morning; when thinking to pacify my wife, who began to rate me, (as usual) for staying out so long, I told her the occasion of it; but instead of rejoicing as I thought she would, she cried, "Pish, only two thousand pounds!" However, she was at last reconciled to it, taking pareto remind me, that she had chosen the ticket herself, and she was all along sure it would come up a prize, because the number was an odd one. We neither of us got a wink of sleep; though I was heartily inclined for it; for my wife kept me awake, by telling me, of this, that, and t'other thing, which she wanted, and which she would now purchase, as we could afford it. I know not how the news of my success spread so soon among my other acquaintance, except that my wife told it to every one she knew, or not knew, at church. The consequence was, that I had no less than seven very hearty friends come to dine with us, by way of wishing us joy; and the number of those hearty friends was increased to above a dozen by supper time. It is kind in one's friends to be willing to partake of one's success; they made themselves merry at my expence; and at parting, told me they would bring me some more friends and have another jolly evening with me on this happy occasion.
When they were gone, I made shift to get a little rest, though I was often disturbed by my wife talking in her sleep. Her head it seems, literally ran upon wheels; that is, the lottery wheels; she frequently called out that she had got the ten thousand pounds; she muttered several wild and incoherent expressions about gowns and ruffles, and ear-rings, and necklaces; and I once heard her mention the word coach. In the morning when I got up, how was I surprised to find my good fortune published to the world in the newspaper! though I could not but smile (and madam was greatly pleased) at the printers exalting me to the dignity of Esquire, having been nothing but plain Mr. all my life before.
And now the misfortunes arising from my good fortune began to pour in thick upon me. In consequence of the information given in the newspaper, we were no sooner far down to breakfast than we were complimented with a rat-tat-too from the drums, as if we had been just married; after that the band of music saluted us with a peal from the marrow bones and cleavers to the same tune. I was harassed the whole day with petitions from the hospital boys that drew the ticket, the commissioner's clerks that wrote down the ticket, and the clerks of the office where I bought the ticket, all of them praying, "That my Honor would consider them." I should be glad you would inform me what these people would have given me if I had had a blank.
My acquaintance in general called to know, when they should wait upon me to wit my good fortune. My own relations, and my wife's relations, came in such shoals to congratulate me, that I hardly knew the faces of many of them. One insisted on my giving a piece of plate to his wife; another recommended me to put his little boy (my two and fortieth cousin) out apprentice; another, who lately white-washed, proposed to me my setting him up again in his business; and several of them very kindly told me they would borrow three or four hundred pounds of me, as they knew I could now spare it.
My wife, in the mean time, you may be sure, was not idle in contriving how to dispose of this new acquisition. She found out, in the first place, (according to the complaint of most women) that she had not a gown to her back, at least not one fit for her now to appear in.
Her wardrobe of linen was no less deficient; and the discovered several chasms in our furniture, especially in the articles of plate and china. She is also determined to see a little pleasure, as she calls it, and has actually made a party to go to the opera. Now, in order to supply these immediate wants and necessities, she has prevailed with me (though at a great loss) to turn the prize into ready money; which I dared not refuse her, because the number was her own choosing; and she has further persuaded me (as we have had such good luck) to lay out a great part of the produce in purchasing more tickets, all of her own choosing. To me it is indifferent which way the money goes; for, upon my making out the balance, I already find I shall be a loser by my gains; and all my fear is, that one of the tickets may come up a five thousand or a ten thousand.
I am, &c. JEOFFREY CHANCE, P. S. I am just going to club—I hope they won't desire me to treat them again.
NOTICE.
SAMUEL RICHARDSON, respectfully informs the gentlemen, subscribers to the Exchange, that on Thursday next, the 26th inst. it will be open for their accommodation.

THE Philadelphia, Allston, and Tuckerton MAIL STAGE.
THE proprietors beg leave to inform the public, that they have established a Stage between Philadelphia, Allston, Buxton, Hampton, Speersville, and Martha's Vineyard, Wading River fitting well, and the town of Tuckerton, in New Jersey, to go once a week, and are provided with good horses, a comfortable carriage, and a careful driver, for the convenience of the mail, passengers, and goods. The Stage will start every Thursday, at 10 o'clock, A. M. from Mr. Daniel Cooper's Ferry, and lodge that night at Joel Bodine's, at Longacoming; and on Friday, at 6 o'clock, P. M. arrive at Galesburg, keeper, in Tuckerton, distant from the city 54 miles, (from the Atlantic 6, and from the East Crossing Platun 7 miles) where are good accommodations for travellers, and where are commodious and safe passage boats provided to convey passengers to Capt. William Warington's boat, on Tucker's Island, administering the Atlantic, where are good accommodations, and a convenient place to bathe; the sportsman who wishes to regale himself with fowling and fishing, may at this place be highly gratified, there being at almost every season of the year fowl and fish in abundance. The Stage on its return, starts from the aforesaid C. Evans's in Tuckerton, every Tuesday, at 6 o'clock, A. M. breakfasting at Joel Bodine's, at Wading River Bridge, lodge that night at Longacoming, and at 1 o'clock, P. M. on Wednesday, arrive at the aforesaid Cooper's Ferry. It is presumed that no route of an equal distance will be less expensive, or furnish the traveller with a greater variety of amusement, as he will not only have a pleasant fall to the Atlantic from Tuckerton, but have the curiosity of seeing on the road either a number of capital farmers and forges, and one fitting mill, in complete order, and at work; gentlemen, too, who are owners, or factors, of any of the aforesaid iron works, are solicited to encourage and support this Stage (by which they can be so well accommodated) the continuance of which will much depend on their aid. The rates of passengers and baggage are as follows: For a passenger from the aforesaid David Cooper's Ferry to Tuckerton, including 14 lb. of baggage, Two Dollars; for every passenger per mile, Four Cents—450 lb. of baggage equal to a passenger. Postage of letters, newspapers, &c. will be agreeably to law. N. B. The mail crosses from the Old Ferry. THOMAS WARDLE & Co. Tuckerton, Sept. 28. Oct. 5.—newsp.
