Agreeable to the order of the day, on Tuesday last the House of Assembly proceeded to the election of Delegates to represent this State in Congress, — when Leonard Gansevoort, Abraham Yates, jun. Alexander Hamilton, Robert Benfon, and Ezra L'Hommedieu, Esquires, were nominated on the part of the House.
And it appearing that the Senate nominated the same Gentlemen as the House, excepting Leonard Gansevoort, and in room of him, on their list, was the name of William Floyd; both Houses met and balloted for a choice of one of the two last mentioned Gentlemen; on collecting the votes, Mr. Gansevoort had 36 — Mr. Floyd 28 — whereupon it was declared that Abraham Yates, jun. Alexander Hamilton, Robert Benfon, Ezra L'Hommedieu and Leonard Gansevoort, Esquires, were duly elected to represent this State in the Congress of the United States, until the first Monday in November next; and until ten days after the first subsequent meeting of the Legislature: provided the time does not exceed one year from the time of their appointment.
By a gentleman lately arrived from the Western Country, whose information is much to be depended on, we learn, that from the most perfect computation that could be formed there, not less than eighteen to twenty thousand emigrants have arrived in Kentucky, within the last nine months, by the different routes, of the Ohio, Wilderness, &c. One fact, perfectly well ascertained, strongly corroborates the above computation, that on the 24th of November, there passed Fort Harmer, at the mouth of the Muskingum, one thousand two hundred and ninety six souls, according to the accounts taken by the boats of the garrison, the commander of which uses great pains and accuracy in informing himself of the numbers that pass.
General Harmer, with the greatest part of the troops under his command, has returned from Fort Vincent's on the Wabash to the Muskingum, leaving two companies at the former place. (Maryland Gaz.)
On Wednesday arrived the brig Eliza Jane, Love, in 63 days from Kingston and Rhode-Island; and on Thursday arrived the brig Brownlow, M'Beaken, in ten weeks from Dublin.
Yesterday arrived, in fourteen weeks from St. Ubes, the ship Pomona, Grievess; and the ship Charming Mary, —, in twelve weeks from Dublin; also the brig Lovely Betsey, Stites, from Cape Francois, in 65 days; brig Christian, Pool, from St. Eustatia, in 80 days; brig Molly and Betsey, Morrison, from ditto, in 49 days; brig Brothers, Jaffers, from Bilboa, in 60 days; and brig May, Montgomery, in ten weeks from Liverpool. The five last, we understand, were bound up the Delaware, but obliged by hard weather to run into this port.
It is said that the crew of the brig Lovely Betsey were, for thirty days previous to her arrival, in the greatest distress; having neither meat, bread, fire or candle, and only rice to subsist on, until relieved, in some measure, by one of the pilot-boats. The mate died at sea.
Capt. Lewis, of the snow Anne Mary Anne, in lat. 38, long. 60, spoke the sloop Thomas Lemayne, master, ten days from Boston, in distress, having six feet water in her hold. Capt. Lewis took the people out of her on the 1st Jan. and put them on board the Pomona Schooner, from Surinam bound to Newbury Port.
The Dashwood packet arrived safe at Falmouth with the October mail.
The ship La Flandre Francoise arrived safe at Bourdeaux.
