Hague, March 19. His Britannic Ma- jesty has addressed a Message to the States General, the tenor of which will suffi- ciently assure the nation of the sentiments which his said Majesty bears towards them; the principal object of which ap- pears to be, to announce to their High Mightinesses the choice he has made of Sir James Harris, for his Ambassador Extra- ordinary, in recompence for his eminent ser- vices. — The following is a copy of it, and interesting in a double degree; the first, as an authentic proof of his Majesty's good disposition towards the United Pro- vinces; and secondly, the unexpected praise of his Minister, who will be ever dear to this country.
"High and Mighty Lords, our good Friends, Allies and Confederates, The happy events which have lately taken place in your Republic, have inter- ested us so much, that we have taken the most agreeable and public means to manifest to you our entire satisfaction. In this in- tention we have thought proper to invest with the appointment of our Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary, Sir James Harris, who has resided some years with you, and of whose eminent services you are equally acquainted with. We are persuaded, for this reason, the choice we have made of his person, on this occasion, cannot but be very agreeable."
"He is so fully informed of our senti- ments that he will not neglect to repeat, in the most authentic and solemn manner, the assurances of our affection, as also of our attention to all which may have respect to the advantage and prosperity of our State."
"Our said Ambassador, in obeying our instructions, will not fail in a constant care to cement and strengthen, more and more, the close and happy union which subsists between us, and which the duration of it is so very essential to the reciprocal interests of the two nations."
"We request of you to give an entire belief to all which he may represent on our part; and on this we pray God, High and Mighty Lords, our good Friends, Allies and Confederates, to have you in his holy keep- ing."
"From our palace at St. James's, the 25th of February, in the year 1788, and of our reign the twenty-eighth."
"Your very good Friend, GEORGE R."

BASSETTERRE April 16. On Sunday evening the Schooner Stanley, Capt. Pennington, arrived here with the 2d February Mail. It was brought out by his Majesty's Packet Duke of Cumberland, Capt. Deake, who arrived here yesterday morning, and will sail this day for Jama- ica on her return to Europe.
On Saturday the Friendship, Captain Bas- dan, arrived here from Nevis.
On Monday the Basseterre, Captain Blair, arrived here from London, with Mr. Wil- iam Bowrin, of Nevis passenger.
Yesterday arrived here from Glasgow, the ship Isabella, Capt. Carnegie.
PROVIDENCE, May 3. Monday last being the anniversary elec- tion of officers to command the united com- pany of the train of artillery in this town, the day was ushered in by a discharge of six cannon, in honor of the six states which have adopted the federal constitution. — In the forenoon the company paraded in com- plete uniform — and at 12 o'clock fired 13 cannon, in honor of the United States of America. At half past one, they partook of an entertainment at Mr. James Green's.
We are desired to mention, that Captain Timothy Coggesdal, in the brig Maria, from Charleston, bound to L'Orient, arrived at Martinico in distress on the 13th of January last. — In lat. 33: 30. long. 47. he was over-set, and lost his principal sails, with some of his crew. The brig, after some time, happily righted, and he bore away for Martinico.
PORTSMOUTH, (N. H.) April 23. On Friday last, came on before the Hon. Superior Court, at Dover, the trial of Mr. Elisha Thomas, charged with the murder of Capt. PETER DROWN, when after a full hearing of the evidences, and of argu- ments made use of by the Attorney Gene- ral, John Prentice, Esq. and the counsel for the prisoner, Col. Rawson and Major Sullivan, he was convicted of the fact, the jury bringing in their verdict — "guilty of wilful murder!" and sentence of death was pronounced upon him accordingly.
Beware of MAD DOGS! A short time since, a Mrs. Mary Martin, of Pembroke, in this State, was bit in the hand by a mad dog; the dog discovering e- vident tokens of madness, was immediate- ly killed. No uncommon symptoms were noticed by the woman, until the evening of the 10th inst. when she complained of her hands being very painful, and of her being otherwise indisposed. From this pe- riod, the symptoms of the Hydrophobia
came upon her, and after lingering until the 12th inst. in the utmost agony, she expired. Previous to her dissolution, she would make a noise, resembling the howl of a wolf or a dog, and exhibited every symptom of madness. The above may be relied upon as a fact, we having received the account from a person who was present, and who attended at her funeral.
PHILADELPHIA, May 6. In the night between Monday and Tues- day last, Mr. Samuel Groff, of Chestnut- street, in this city, shoemaker, passing along Third-street, nearly opposite to Cherry- street, where the footway was straitened by a lime-kiln, erected to accommodate the building of an adjoining lot, and difficult- ed by loose earth lying irregularly on it, he fell (as it is supposed) headlong into the cellar, just prepared for the masonry, in front, and was found there lying dead the next day. A neighbour, in bed at the time, heard the noise of the fall, but con- jecturing it was caused by something dis- turbed in the yard, did not rise; so that the deceased lay undiscovered till day re- turned. It is to be regretted that this should happen, when so slight a matter as a pole extended across the openings, or other hasty fence, might have prevented the misfortune. Those who thus open the ground by an highway should be careful not to create pub- lic nuisances, of so mischievous a nature. Mr. Peter Walter, who was carrying on the improvement, we understand is held in a re- cognizance to answer for the nuisance in this case at the city court. We are told that Mr. Groff has left a widow and five chil- dren to bewail his loss.
NEW-YORK, May 13.
A letter from Edinburgh of Feb. 7, says- "The attempts to rescue the natives of Africa from their bondage, while it breathes a spirit of the purest liberty, does honor to the tolerant spirit of religion, which marks and ennobles the present age. — A- mongst many respectable societies who have countenanced this laudable undertaking, we learn, that at a meeting of the Chamber of Commerce, held here yesterday, the Se- cretary laid before them a letter from the Committee at Manchester, where the moti- on originated; and after a conversation, the Directors unanimously agreed, as a body corporate, to petition Parliament for the total abolition of this savage traffic."
Died, yesterday afternoon, in the 44th year of his age, Mr. ANTHONY GRIF- FITHS, of this city, Merchant.
The Corporation of the city, and the Marine Society, are invited to attend his funeral, from his late residence, No. 12, Smith-street, at 3 o'clock, this afternoon.
Episcopal Anecdote. The late Bishop of Hereford having preached but one Sermon during his being a Bishop, reminds me (says a correspondent) of a similar fact, at- tended with much more curious circumstan- ces, of a Bishop of Cork.
Dr. William Lyons, who was preferred to the Bishoprick of Cork, Cloyne, and Ross, towards the latter end of Queen Elizabeth's reign, was originally a Captain of a ship, who had distinguished himself so gallantly in several actions with the Spaniards, that on being introduced to the Queen, she told him he should have "the first vacancy that offered."
The honest Captain, who understood the Queen literally, soon after hearing of a va- cancy in the See of Cork, immediately set off for Court and claimed the Royal prom- ise. — The Queen, astonished at the request, for a time remonstrated against the imp- ropriety of it, and what she could never think of as an office suitable for him. It was, however, in vain; he said, the Royal word was passed, and he relied on it. Her Majesty then said, she would take a few days to consider of it, when examining into his character, and finding him a sober, moral man, as well as an intrepid Commander, she sent for Lyons, and gave him the Bishop- ric, saying at the same time, "she hoped he would take as good care of the church as he had done of the State."
Lyons immediately set out for his Bi- shopric, which he enjoyed for above twenty years with great reputation to himself, but never attempted to preach but once, and that was on the death of the Queen. On that melancholy occasion he thought it his duty to pay the last honors to his Royal Mistress, and accordingly mounted the pulpit in Christ Church, in the City of Cork, when after giving a good discourse on the uncer- tainty of life, and the great and amiable qualities of the Queen, he concluded in the following warm but whimsical manner:
"Let those who feel this loss deplore with me on this melancholy occasion; but if there be any that hear me who have se- cretly wished for this event (as perhaps there may) they have now got their wish, and the D— I do them good with it."
The writer of this article gives it on good traditional authority: the Bishop's name, and the date of his appointment (1583) are on record in the consistorial court of Cork;
and his picture, in his Captain's uniform, the left-hand wanting a finger, is still to be seen in the Bishop's palace at Cork.
From the Virginia Independent Chronicle.
RICHARD HENRY LEE, Esq. [Continued from Yesterday's Paper.] SIR, March 28, 1788.
EXPERIENCE has proved to us, that a brotherly forbearance, which cannot be interrupted by your licentious pen, will ef- fectually prevent the adoption of such mea- sures. A little calm reflection would have shown you, Sir, that it is the general rule in Congress for a majority to decide. Why then, ought that rule to be changed in this instance? Will you reply, that if it was so changed, the southern states would never agree to such general commercial regulations which the interests of America would re- quire. Have not the northern states trusted their dearest interests to the vote of a ma- jority, and can we suppose, that they would agree, that ours should be secured by making the votes of two-thirds neces- sary? The implacable resentment, which, from personal motives, you bear to the northern states, has made you, very im- prudently, pull off the mask, and discover your secret wishes. Your enmity to the northern states has made you an enemy to the union. To gratify your resentment against them, you would wantonly sacri- fice the happiness of your native country. But, what are the evils which you so feel- ingly dread? Why, should these regula- tions take place, the northern states might oblige us to pay more for the carriage of our commodities than we do now. And pray, Sir, admitting this to be true, is it not better that the northern states should engross our carrying trade than the English? No — Your over-weaning attachment to this nation will never reconcile you to this mea- sure. Is not the policy of this and of every other country the same? Is it not the pol- icy of every wise government to impose duties on particular articles, when they want to encourage the manufacture of them at home? The duties, it is true, will make us pay, for some time, a greater price for those articles, than we should other- wise have done. But will not they give such strength to our own manufactures, that they will be enabled, in a short time, entirely to supply the home demand, and in the end, upon much better terms than we before got them?
Is there any commercial country in the world, in which similar regulations have not been adopted? At present, for want of a commercial head, all nations are per- mitted to become our carriers. They sup- ply us only with such commodities as they please, and take from us, only such, as they cannot do without. They will not even permit us to carry to their markets our own produce. Thus are we trading for the be- nefit of all nations, and to our own preju- dice. But, according to your wise policy, we ought to remain in this situation, and for what! Because, although great benefit would be derived, from such commercial regulations, to America in general, yet, as particular parts will gain more than others, you will not consent to it. Do you not suppose, Sir, that when Cromwell passed his navigation act, the price of freight was raised, and particular parts of the kingdom were more benefited by it, than others? Yet, the wealth, prosperity, and extensive commerce of the whole nation are, justly, attributed to this act. America is one country, and all her sons are brethren. He, who is not strongly impressed with these sentiments, whatever specious pretences he may assume, ought to be considered as an enemy to both.
I shall now, Sir, take the liberty to ex- amine one or two of the amendments, which you have, with peculiar confidence, recom- mended. I flatter myself, I have made it appear, that many of the objections, which you have advanced against the federal con- stitution, exist only in your visionary brain. I equally hope to make it appear, that the amendments, which you have so majesti- cally proposed, would be really defects, and could only be engendered by such a mind as yours.
"Let the new constitution," you say, "be so amended, as to admit the appoint- ment of a privy council, to consist of eleven members, chosen by the president, but re- sponsible for the advice they may give." A council, Sir, in this country, is alto- gether unnecessary, because the president is amenable himself for his conduct, and liable, like any other public officer, to be impeach- ed for bad administration. In England the case is different. The privy council, and the ministers of the king are, alone, liable for the public measures, which may be un- constitutionally pursued — Because, it is a principle of their government, that the king can do no wrong, and is not accountable to any tribunal for his conduct. The con- stitution has, therefore, wisely provided, that the servants shall be responsible for the misconduct of the king. But, as the reason of that regulation does not operate in the federal constitution, the regulation itself
was unnecessary. For, where is the ne- cessity of giving to the president a council, when the president, in his own person, is liable to punishment? But, if this was not the case, do you really think, that a coun- cil, appointed by the president, and re- movable at his pleasure, would be any check on his conduct? Would it not rather tend to increase his influence, and serve, as a cloak, to screen him from just punish- ment? Perhaps, your object was, only to multiply the number of places, and to make the probability of your occupying one, the greater. You have, hitherto, been disap- pointed in many attempts to get into office, and believe me, Sir, the more extended the field is, from which the election is to be made, the less chance you will have of suc- ceeding.

To the honorable the Legislature of the State of New-York. The Petition of the subscribers, Freeholders and Inhabitants of the Town of Lansingburgh, in the County of Rensselaer, in the county of Albany. Most humbly sheweth,
THAT the freeholders and inhabitants of the said town, or the major part of them, have, at great expense, purchased lots of ground in the said town, and made settlements and improvements thereon, for the purpose of carrying on an extensive trade and commerce, and promoting the population of that part of the country.
That experience has taught your petitioners, that the regulation of the internal police of the said town, by the votes of the freeholders and inhabitants, or by a committee by them annually chosen for the purpose, is attended with great difficulties and embarrassments, which daily increase and multiply.
That the said freeholders and inhabitants, for want of being incorporated, cannot obtain a grant of a considerable tract of land, which has been generously promised to them, as common for fuel and pasture, for the use and benefit of the said freeholders and inhabitants, by means whereof their prosperity and mercantile prospects may be greatly diminished.
For remedy whereof, and in order to answer the beneficial purposes intended by your petitioners, they are desirous that the freeholders and inhabitants, residing within the following boundaries and limits, may be incorporated, viz. Beginning at a certain pitch-pine stump, standing on the east bank of Hudson's river, opposite the fourth end of Whale Island, and running thence S. 69. E. 178 chains, agreeable as the same was run and settled between Stephen Van Rensselaer, Esq., and Abraham Jacob Lansing. Thence N. 19. 45. E. 286 chains and 50 links, as the same was also run and settled between Stephen Van Rensselaer, Esq., and Abraham Jacob Lansing. Thence W. to the mouth of the Herkberg Kill, at Hudson's river, to low water mark, as the magnetic needle pointed in the year 1760; and from thence down along the river, until opposite the said stump, and from thence to the said stump.
Your petitioners therefore pray, that an act may be passed, to incorporate the freeholders and inhabitants residing within the limits aforesaid, by the name of the Trustees of the Freeholders and Inhabitants of the Town of Lansingburgh.
That the trustees to be named in the said act may be seven, to wit: Abraham Jacob Lansing, John Van Rensselaer, Jeremiah Hoagland, Flores Banker, Elijah Jones, Aaron Ward, and John G. Yates.
That the freeholders and inhabitants aforesaid may be enabled annually to choose seven trustees, to keep up a regular succession: That the name of Aaron Ward may be inscribed in the said act, as clerk of the said town; Christopher Tillman, Esq., as treasurer; and David Henry, as marshal; and that their successors in office may likewise be annually chosen as aforesaid: And that the Legislature will be pleased to grant such powers, jurisdictions, and privileges to the trustees of the said town, and for the regulation of its internal police, as the Legislature in their wisdom shall deem meet and expedient.
And your petitioners will ever pray. Signed by AB. JACOB LANSING, And above 100 others, freeholders and inhabitants residing within the limits above described. Lansingburgh, March 8, 1788.
In ASSEMBLY, March 11th, 1788. Resolved, That the Honorable the Senate concur herein, that Abraham Jacob Lansing and other Freeholders and Inhabitants of Lansingburgh, in the town of Rensselaer in the County of Albany, have leave to present to either House of the Legislature on the second Monday after a quorum of both houses shall be convened at their next meeting, after the first Monday in July next, a Bill to incorporate the Freeholders and Inhabitants of Lansingburgh, provided that the petitioners do cause a copy of their said petition, and a copy of this resolution, to be published six weeks successively in one of the public newspapers printed in the city of New-York, and in one of the public newspapers printed in the city of Albany, to the end, that any person who may conceive his interest affected thereby, may appear at the Bar of either house, and show cause against the passing such bill.
A Copy. (Signed) McKES ON, Clerk. In SENATE, March 12th, 1788. Resolved, That the Senate do concur with the Honorable the Assembly in their preceding Resolution. By Order, (Signed by) ABRAHAM B. BANCKER, Clerk.

The Inhabitants of the City of NEW-YORK ARE respectfully informed, that the subscriber intends opening a NEW CHIMNEY OFFICE, at No. 21, Wall-street, two doors from Mr. James Rivington's. He trusts he will be able to give general satisfaction to those who may please to employ him, (signified by their becoming subscribers) as he is determined to join unremitted assiduity to the pain and down in the following proposals, which he flatters himself will meet the approbation and encouragement of the inhabitants of this city. 1st. To provide a set of sweeps, as many as may be found necessary, under the distinguishing mark of a cap, on the front of which, will be the words, New Chimney Office, No. 21, Wall-street, to see the business performed. 2d. To allot each a particular district, in such manner, as that every five subscribers, shall be regularly swept once every month, (or oftener if required) at the rate of one shilling and three pence, for every chimney. 3d. To oblige himself to pay the Sweep by 14 days if the chimney takes fire within the month after it has been swept, by the people belonging to this office, and if the chimney be cracked, or the fire begin in some other part of the house. 4th. To render the establishment of general public utility, in case of fire, the sweeps shall be made to attend, and perform such services as may be required of them. The undertaking merits the greatest attention, as it will contribute in a particular manner, to render lives secure, and prevent the destruction of property, by conflagration, which too frequently originates in foul chimneys, occasioned, in one instance, by a neglect of sweeps at riding at regular periods, and in other, not knowing where to apply. Subscriptions will be thankfully received at the above place, and the plan will be begun upon the second June next. May 9. STEPHEN PATERSON.

HOGS' BRISTLES.
WANTED, by the Subscribers, a quantity of Hogs' Bristles, for which Two Shillings per pound will be given, provided they are dressed clean; those in the ruff, One Shilling and Three-pence per ditto. The Subscribers having created a BRUSH MANUFACTORY, at No. 4, Peck's-Slip, where they propose carrying on the Brush Making Business in all its branches, Store-keepers and others may be furnished with all sorts on as low terms as any imported, to which they hope the preference will be given them, as the work is equally good if not bet- ter; and as they will warrant their work not to fail till worn out by use, they flatter themselves with expectation of getting a sufficient supply of this country Bristles, that they may not be under the ne- cessity of importing their stock from England; the Farmers, by being careful in the season of killing, may save sufficient to supply them in this business. - Country Store-keepers would be the most proper per- sons to collect them.
Those who will please to undertake the collecting them, will meet with a ready sale, and be the means of promoting a very useful branch of business, which may be carried on in this state, and put a stop to the importing that commodity. The least favor will be gratefully acknowledged, by ANANIAS COOPER and Company. New-York, Nov. 5, 1787. 6m m
MONTMORIN.
THIS TOWN, laid out at the solicitation of seve- ral 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 McIntosh, in Westmoreland county, in the State of Pennsylvania, and at the ancient settle- ment formerly called Logstown, which was abandon- ed 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 a- bounds in coal; the navigation from thence down the river is superior to that of Fort Pitt, as the wa- ter 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 communi- cation or route from the Eastern and middle States to the Muskingum, Miami and Kentucky settle- ments; 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, be- ing 66 feet wide; except Great George, Wash- ington, Hancock and Clinton-streets, which are 90 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 del- ivery 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. Muhlenberg and Heister, Matthew Clarkson and Richard Bache, Esqrs. On or before the first of June next; after which, on application, indispensa- ble titles in fee simple, agreeably to the said appro- priation, 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 Wilcox, Mr. Tho- mas Bradford, and at the Coffee-House, Philadel- phia; 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, Westmoreland County. ISAAC MELCHER. Philadelphia, Sept. 1, 1787.
EXTRACT. Page 10, Colonel Bouquet's Expedi- tion, 1764. Friday, Oct. 5. "In this day's march the army passed through Logstown, situated seventeen and a half miles fifty-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 Eng- lish and French but its inhabitants, the Shawanese and Delawares, abandoned it in the year 1750. The lower town extended about 60 perches over a rich bottom to the foot of a low steep bridge; on the summit of which, near the declivity, stood the up- per town, commanding a most agreeable prospect o- ver 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. Pro- ceeding beyond Logstown we passed through a fine country, &c."
