To the Printer of the Daily Advertiser.
SIR,
THE enclosed prediction is supposed to have been conceived and written by the Reverend —, of —, who rendered himself so famous for his wonderful prophecies at the beginning of the late war. I have carefully copied it from the original manuscript, which was very much defaced and torn when it fell into my hands; but by what means I became possessed of it, I am not at liberty to declare. It is said, in the original manuscript, to be written for the year 1788. In the bundle which contained this, are several other curious pieces, which you shall have as fast as I can transcribe them, if you publish this; as I shall take it to be an indication of your desire to have the rest.
I am Sir,
Your most obedient servant,
W I Z A R D.
New-York, Nov. 13, 1788.
A PROPHECY.
IN those days there will appear a most wonderful character, in America. He shall serve in the American army; where his youth shall be approved, and he shall be preferred to high behests and confidential trust. Beneath the shadow of an imperial tent, he shall spend many hours on warlike plans and warfare. He shall ride about when it is dark, and he shall see moving hosts, and he shall sleep on tented ground. At all these things the people shall marvel greatly, and they shall never forget it, by reason of their being told of it so often. He will go to Europe and he will visit divers courts; and he will make several journeys to England after he arrives in France. And he shall return from Europe's courts a miracle of fashion. He shall have an affair with one of the muse's chambermaids, and she shall inspire him, and he shall write poetry, and be a poet; both before and after his return from Europe's courts. In England they will read his poetry in public, apparently in clubs or other places, where people enter by tickets. In France they will write strictures on his poetry, which will be inserted in the American Museum; and he shall be the author of those strictures, and many more, himself. He will have the command of a regiment, and he will make a speech to his troops; in this speech he will talk of the gerne of discipline, and greatly of what he hath seen abroad. He will come from the east and pass on to the west, with the celebrity of a comet; and he will cause an account of himself to be published in all the newspapers. If he strikes the soft pastoral lyre; or if he raises his voice to the solemn, melancholy, and sublime strain, he will not fail to move the bowels of all hearers and readers;—for he shall sing, O! how divinely he shall sing—
"Adieu, I cried, to Vernon's shades adieu, The vessel waits, I see the beck'ning crew.— [Vide, piece on the happiness of America.]
Another pastoral lay.
"'Twas mine return'd from Europe's courts, To share his thoughts, partake his sports, And sooth his partial ear.— [Vide, Mount Vernon Ode.]
The melancholy and heroic.
"No more this hand, since happier days succeed, Waves the bright blade, or reins the fiery steed, No more for martial fame, this bosom burns, Now white rob'd peace to bless a world returns. [Vide, piece on the happiness of America.]
The solemn and sublime.
"These twice twelve banners once in pomp unfurl'd, Spread death and terror round the southern world, In various colors from the staff unroll'd, The lion frown'd, the eagle flam'd in gold, Hibernia's harp reluctant here was hung, And Scotia's thistle these spontaneous sprang; These twice twelve flags no more shall be display'd, Save in the dome where warlike spoils are laid: Since, where the fathers in high council meet, This band has plac'd them prostrate at their feet.— [Vide, piece addressed to the armies of America.]
The sublime and terrible.
"For me, tho' growing with conceptions warm, I find no equal words to give them form: Pent in my breast the mad'ning tempest raves, Like prison'd fires, in Etna's burning caves; For me, why no thundering numbers roll, Why niggard language doth thou balk my foul! [Vide, piece on the happiness of America.]
Some infidels shall turn away their eyes and their ears from these moving lays, with signs of loathing and disgust, and they shall call them so many examples of the genuine bombast; and yet all shall agree that he is a very extraordinary character. He shall put forth a book, and shall call it the Memoirs of a Great Man; but the people shall not appreciate with Justice; for they shall call it the vehicle of egotism. In his dedication he shall have more views to answer, than ever dedicator had before; and his exordium shall be in part, like that given to the world by the famous Sir Humphrey Poleworth, his illustrious predecessor and historiographer to John Bull. The style of his compositions in general, as well prose as poetical, shall be remarkable for the graceful turn of the thought,
phor, the splendid epithet and lively simile, and all those peculiar graces and excellencies which the famous Sir Humphrey, in the preface to his history, attributes to the several performances of his brethren. He will complain of the fallacy and crudity of writers in the vale of penury and obscurity, and he will request posterity to read his memoirs, lest they all turn sceptics. He will prove, beyond the power of contro- versy, by confidential letters, notes and otherwise, that he absolutely had access to sources of intelligence not open to others. But he shall not imitate the candor and ingenuity of his illustrious predecessor, by acknowledging, as he does, with how much labour and pains he endeavored to transfuse the beauties, both of ancient and modern historians into these memoirs; nor shall he say any thing of the particular obligations which he will have to some more modern biographers, and which that noble author generously confesses he had to the Pilgrim's Progress of John Bunyan, and the Tenter Belly of the reverend Joseph Hall. He will give a definition of courage and fortitude, and he will prove that there are a dozen distinct species of courage and fortitude, and he shall say so much about courage and fortitude, and so industriously secrete his meaning behind so many well-born words that nobody shall understand what courage and fortitude is. And these memoirs shall be stuffed up with Latinisms, Gallicisms, and every thing but Anglicisms. He will give a most extraordinary account of his having made the same remark to two gentlemen, when they were three thousand miles distant from each other; and that posterity may know that such men lived, and were his friends, and wrote poetry as well as himself, and perhaps for a better reason, because they have made honorable mention of him occasionally, he will insert several extracts from their works, with their names, and one song entire, in these memoirs; and he shall say that he does it not from a vain presumption of adding eclat or duration to works which have received the seal of immortality. Dr. Beardsey shall have reason to felicitate himself on his good fortune, as the writer of these memoirs will embalm his memory, by revealing at what great speed the doctor and writer rode once on a time, and how they were not unconcerned spectators of a gar- rison's being stormed. The writer of these memoirs shall at times wax highly poetical, in his prose; and he shall talk of the profound stillness that reigned in the atmosphere, and the full moon's shining with uncommon brightness, forty years ago; and he shall interweave a love story in with these memoirs, which happened nearly at the same time the profound stillness reigned in the atmosphere, and the full moon shone with uncommon brightness. This love story will be purposely written for all the young ladies who will read these memoirs; and it shall be addressed to the heart and feelings of all maiden ladies; and they shall yearn with indignation and disappro- bation at it; for in this love scene will be seen an old woman with a redundancy of bloom, and a face formed for the assemblage of dimples and smiles; and a young officer shall attempt to ravish this old woman, and he shall be violently in love with her at the same time, and he shall threaten to kill her, and she shall most ardently wish for it; but with the assistance of con- scious virtue, she shall repulse him; and the writer of these memoirs shall have the merciless cruelty and inhumanity to leave this young officer bleeding at the nose, and swimming in a lake after this old wo- man, and her protector shall mingle his mess with hers occasionally. At all these things the people shall marvel greatly, and he shall continue to dole out poetry, and write a portion of memoirs every year for a number of years to come.
NEW-YORK, Nov. 15.
Yesterday arrived the ship Eliza, Mercer, from Liverpool, in 8 weeks; Schooner Hope, Nicks, New- Providence; sloop Trial, Barnard, Cape- Francois; and Two Couzins, Jenkins, Richmond. Same day cleared out at the custom-house, the ship Jenny, Morris, for Bristol; brig Dolphin, Scovel, Middletown; sloop Juno, Niles, Norwich; and Alfred, Ely, Saybrook. On Friday last, in lat. 37, long. 72, Capt. Mer- cer, of the ship Eliza, spoke a ship from Pool, nine weeks out, bound to Philadelphia. On the 5th November, Capt. Hunter, of the ship George, spoke the brig Commerce, Capt. Tyrie, from Gibraltar, bound to this port, out 34 days, in lat. 32, long. 72, 30, W. all well.
By Liverpool papers received by the Eliza, we have the following:—
P E T E R S B U R G H, August 16.
(Translated from the Gazette of the Court.)
Advices have been received from Admiral Greig, that having weighed anchor on the 6th instant in the morning, he sailed with his fleet, and came off Sweaborg on the 7th, where he perceived four Swedish ships of war at anchor in the road. On his approach they cut their cables, and retired into port under a press of sail. All their movements bespoke the utmost confusion, and just as the lead- ing ship of our fleet came within cannon shot, one of their vessels struck on a rock under water with such force as to break her main-mast, and carry it
after exchanging a few shots with our admiral Rolsamow, stuck her colors. The three other vessels saved themselves in part by the impossibility of our fleet pursuing them, on account of the great quantity of rocks, under water and level with it, which are found in these latitudes. Ad- miral Greig sent boats to take possession of the ship, which was of 64 guns, 36 and 24 pounders, named the Gullavus and Adolphus, and a new ship. Her captain is the col. Christiane, and there are made prisoners along with him thirteen officers and 530 men. As it was impossible to save the ship, which had already 25 feet of water, she was burnt after we had saved the prisoners, their ef- fects, and had taken out what we could of their ammunition.
The Duke of Sodermania, with all his fleet, amounting to sixteen ships of the line and eight fri- gates, remained in the port of Sweaborg a quiet spectator, without making the least attempt to prevent us, altho' their ship struck, and was burnt within three or four versts from Sweaborg.
Admiral Greig continued before this port, for- tified by art and nature, to the 9th, on the hope that the Duke of Sodermania would come out to give him battle; but though the wind was favora- ble he did not at-empt it.
H U L L, Sept. 9.
Extract of a letter from Messrs. Shuttleworth and Belfour, at Elsinore.
"On the 13th inst. (Aug.) 21 ships of the line and fe- ven frigates, Russian, were at anchor off Helsingfors, where the Swedish fleet were entirely blockaded, being too weak to come out, and prevented from joining with the ten sail of the line now in Carlscrona; about the same time they chased on shore and burnt a Swedish 64 gun ship, that had been out on observation. We are mak- ing great preparations in Copenhagen, but to what inten- tion we do not know, further than they mean to supply the Russians with the stipulated quantity of ships and men, as per treaty."
"Another letter from Elsinore, dated Aug. 26, says, "The Russian squadron that have lately blockaded the Swedish fleet in Helsingfors, have sail'd from thence, and nine of them are in Revel Bay; the rest, with some fri- gates, are cruising off Atkinholm."
TO-MORROW, the 16th inst. a CHARITY SER- MON will be preached, and a collection made in the forenoon, at St. Paul's Church, for the benefit of the CHARITY SCHOOL, in this city. An ANTHEM adapted to the occasion, will be sung by the Scholars.
The School at present consists of eighty-six Scholars, viz. fifty-six boys and thirty girls. The children are instructed in the principles of the christian religion and in psalmody; they constantly attend divine Ser- vice at church on week days as well as on Sundays, and the greatest attention is paid to their morals.
The boys are taught reading, writing, arithmetic and merchants accounts; the girls are taught read- ing, writing, arithmetic and needle work. They are all annually clothed, supplied with fuel, and furnish- ed with hooks, paper, &c. The School is regularly visited the first Monday in every month, and the chil- dren carefully examined by a committee of the cor- poration of Trinity Church. When any of the Schol- ars are of a suitable age for dismissal, and duly qual- ified, they are sent to proper trades or services, and others taken in their places.
This excellent institution is earnestly recommend- ed to the patronage of the benevolent and humane. Orphans and the children of indigent persons are hereby snatched from ignorance and vice, preserved from the influence of bad examples, and are qualified to be useful members of society. The support of this truly benevolent society is derived from voluntary do- nations, and collections at those sermons which are annually preached for the purpose. These circum- stances, 'tis hoped, will interest every generous and feeling heart in its behalf, and stimulate the benevo- lence of its friends to contribute for its support.
From Michaelmas 1787, to Michaelmas 1788, se- ven boys and four girls having finished their educa- tion, were sent to trades, and two boys for misbeha- vior have been expelled, and others taken in their places, so that the school is constantly kept full.
N. B. Should the weather prove unfavorable, the sermon will be postponed until the Sunday following.

To the Public.
AN attempt having been made by a certain per- son, to occasion a belief of his having my re- ceipt for preparing the SPECIFIC SOLUTION; I do solemnly declare, that no one (except a gentleman of the medical line, in the state of Maryland, whose honor I could rely on for keeping it to himself) ever had from me the receipt; that the discovery is en- tirely my own, made during my residence in the island of St. Kitts, where I had under my care (as Surgeon from the estates of the Hon. John Julius, Esq. and ge- neral Mathew) upwards of 500 negroes, for more than two years; that during my practice on those es- tates seventy-four Venereal patients came under my care, that the Specific Remedy was the only one used, and that it never failed me: To prove which, any gentleman is heartily welcome to peruse a certi- ficate given me by the Hon. John Julius, on my re- signing the practice of the estates.—As a regular bred Surgeon, I never should have offered a nostrum to the public, but being a very sickly person, ren- dered by disease incapable of attending much to out door practice, I could not conceive it derogatory to the dignity of physical character to bring home that business which want of health would not allow my at- tending abroad. The public may rest assured that no person has my receipt for the preparing the Specific Remedy, and will therefore guard against its being intruded on them as such. S H E E D, Nov. 14. 2w No. 70, Cherry-street.
Specific Solution.
PROVED fully (even in this city) to be the easiest and most effectual remedy ever yet discovered for the cure of the Venereal Disease, to be had only at No. 70, opposite No. 9, Cherry-street.
The terms of (no cure no pay) on which this va- luable medicine was first offered, afforded an op- portunity, by fair trials, of proving its efficacy, numbers have experienced its virtues within a very short space of time, and many could vouch for its quick effects were it admissible; but the na- ture of the complaint forbids the idea. The dis- covery is entirely new, and asserted to be free from any Mercurial preparation whatever.
Persons travelling either by land or water, may have it put up for them, with printed directions, on notice of half an hour. Sept. 25.

COAL TAR.
A Quantity of this Tar, and of black and clear Varnish extracted from Coal, is just arrived, to be sold for ready money only, by
Charles Wilkes,
No. 12, Hanover-square.
The sole Agent in America for the British Tar Company.
THE superior excellence of this Tar in preserving the bottoms of vessels from the worms, and in keeping them clean, has been proved by repeated experiments. It has been also found to be an effectual preservative of oak and wrought iron from rust. A description of the different kinds of Coal Tar and Varnish made by the British Tar Company, and of the various uses they may be applied to with the greatest advantage, with directions for using them, may be had as above. 29th Sept. 1788.
The following Certificate of an Experiment made in New-York, is added for the information of the Public. New-York, April 26, 1788.
WE the subscribers do hereby certify that on or about the 18th June last, we attended at Van Tuyl's wharf, on the East river, in this city, where we examined three pieces of timber, all of the same dimensions, one payed over with Lord Dundonald's late invented Coal Tar, the other, two pieces with a stout thick coat of common ship stuff (pitch, tar, oil, and sulphur); that we afterwards saw them all chained to and sunk along side said wharf.
That nearly six months after, to wit, on the 5th of December following, we again attended at said wharf, when in our presence they were all taken up, and on examining them, the piece done over with the Coal Tar appeared clean and entirely free from grass and barnacles, the other pieces were both very foul, one of them was almost covered with barnacles; that on cutting them in several places we found the worms in full possession of the two pieces payed with the ship stuff, scarcely an inch having escaped them. The piece done over with the Coal Tar was perfectly free from them, and as sound and fresh as when put down.
From the above experiment we are fully of opinion that the Coal Tar will preserve the bottom of ships from barnacles and the worms, and is worthy of the greatest encouragement.
Signed) John Murray, Thomas Sanders, Andrew Van Tuyl, Stephen Crosfield, John Thompson, Wm. Rhinelander.

TEN DOLLARS Reward.

His hat was made wool, and almost worn out. His left arm is smaller than his right one, and has a large lump at it near the elbow, occasioned by the wound of a ball, also a scar very near it from a hurt when a child. He is much addicted to drinking and lying, and is very talkative.
