Boarding and lodging for two Gentlemen a few doors from the City-Hall, En-

To the Printer of the Daily Advertiser.
SIR, I observed, in your paper of the 17th, an extract of a letter from a gentleman at Newport, to the printers of the Hartford paper, with some remarks on the proceedings of the legislature of the state of Rhode-Island, in their late session.
It is not my design to vindicate the conduct of that state with respect to their paper money system; I believe it to be impolitic in the highest degree, at the same time I consider such scurrilous reflections on the conduct of a sovereign state, as indecent and scandalous, and calculated to inflame the passion and fix them in error, rather than to lead them to abandon them. But what is very extraordinary in this publication is, that it is said 'the assembly of Rhode-Island seem at present to be established in their proceedings by receiving governor Clinton's letter.'
This writer's reasoning upon the constitution, and amendments to it, is as extraordinary as what he says respecting governor Clinton's letter. He says that the arguments in its favor, drawn from the proceedings of Rhode-Island are the most powerful and uncontradictory of any that have yet been suggested.
It is therefore an insult, not only upon the people of this state, but to a majority of the people of the United States, to treat the proposal of calling another convention with the contempt that this writer and some others have done.
Wisdom and sound policy dictate that the constitution should be revised, that it should be made conformable, as far as may be, to the wishes of all. It is impossible to support a free government, against which the sentiments of a great part of the people are opposed, and those who would attempt to do it, manifest a disposition unfriendly to equal liberty.
The constitution is adopted by small majorities in a number of the most important states; in several of them a confidence that their sister states would consent to unite in a revision of the system, and alter the exceptionable parts, was the prevailing inducement with a number to accede to it. This confidence was cherished by the express declaration of many of the advocates for its adoption, that they would cordially concur in endeavoring to procure a revision of the system.
I consider the man who pursues this conduct as promoting a measure that will produce discord, and perhaps convulsions, in the United States, and therefore, as acting the part of an enemy to his country.
A Federalist who is for Amendments.

Extract from the Journal of the House of Delegates, of Virginia, Thursday the 30th of October, 1788.
WHEREAS the convention of delegates of the people of this Commonwealth, did ratify a constitution or form of government for the United States, referred to them for their consideration, and did also declare, that sundry amendments to exceptionable parts of the same ought to be adopted; And whereas the subject matter of the amendments, agreed to by the said convention, involves all the great, essential, and unalienable rights, liberties, and privileges of freemen; many of which if not cancelled are rendered insecure under the said constitution, until the same shall be altered and amended.
Resolved, That it is the opinion of this committee, That for quieting the minds of the good citizens of this Commonwealth, and securing their dearest rights and liberties, and preventing those disorders, which must arise under a
government not founded in the confidence of the people, application be made to the Congress of the United States, to call a convention for proposing amendments to the same, according to the mode therein directed.
Resolved, That it is the opinion of this committee, That a committee ought to be appointed to draw up and report to this house a proper instrument of writing, expressing the sense of the General Assembly, and pointing out the reasons which induce them to urge their application thus early for the calling the aforesaid convention of the states.
Resolved, That it is the opinion of this committee, That the said committee ought to be instructed to prepare the draft of a letter, in answer to one received from his Excellency GEORGE CLINTON, Esq. president of the convention of New-York, and a circular letter on the aforesaid subject, to the other states in the union, expressive of the wish of the General Assembly of this Commonwealth, that they may join in an application to the New Congress, to appoint a convention of the states so soon as the Congress shall assemble under the new constitution.
And the said resolutions being severally again read, a motion was made, and the question being put to amend the same, by striking out from the word "whereas" in the first line to the end, and inserting in lieu thereof, the following words:
WHEREAS the delegates appointed to represent the good people of this Commonwealth in the late convention, held in the month of June last, did by their act of the 25th of the same month, assent to, and ratify the constitution recommended on the 17th day of September, 1787, by the federal convention for the government of the United States, declaring themselves (with a solemn appeal to the searcher of hearts for the purity of their intentions) under the conviction "that" whatever imperfections might exist in the constitution, ought rather to be examined in the mode prescribed therein, than to bring the union into danger by a delay, with a hope of obtaining amendments previous to the ratification; AND WHEREAS in pursuance of the said declaration, the said convention did by their subsequent act of the 27th of June aforesaid, agree to such amendments to the said constitution of government for the United States, as were by them deemed necessary to be recommended to the consideration of the Congress, which shall first assemble under the said constitution, to be acted upon according to the mode prescribed in the fifth article thereof; at the same time enjoining it upon their representatives in Congress, to exert all their influence, and use all reasonable and legal methods, to obtain a ratification of the foregoing alterations and provisions in the manner provided by the fifth article of the said constitution; and in all congressional laws to be passed in the mean time, to conform to the spirit of those amendments, as far as the said constitution would admit.
Resolved therefore, That it is the opinion of this committee, That an application ought to be made, in the name and on the behalf of the legislature of this Commonwealth, to the Congress of the United States, so soon as they shall assemble under the said constitution, to pass an act recommending to the legislatures of the several states, the ratification of a bill of rights, and of certain articles of amendments proposed by the convention of this state, for the adoption of the United States, and that until the said act shall be ratified in pursuance of the fifth article of the said constitution of government for the United States, Congress do confirm their ordinances to the true spirit of the said bill of rights and articles of amendment.
Resolved, That it is the opinion of this committee, That the Executive ought to be instructed to transmit a copy of the foregoing resolution to the Congress of the United States, so soon as they shall assemble, and to the legislatures and executive authorities of each state in the union.
It passed in negative. Ayes 39—Noes 85. The Ayes and Noes being called for by Mr. Bland, conceded by Mr. Tuberville;
The names of those who voted in the affirmative are, Francis Walker, Zachariah Johnson, John Tate, Joseph Swearingen, Martin McFarren, Lawrence Battle, Roger West, David Stuart, William Stuart, John Shearman Woodcock, Thomas Smith, George Clendenen, Daniel Fisher, Hezekiah Davison, William Heath, Daniel Broadhead, Larkin Smith, William Thornton, Daniel Fitzhugh, Bernard Moore, Thomas Pinkard, Levin Powell, Richard Bland Lee, William Overton Callis, Richard Morris, James Knox, Samuel Taylor, Francis Corbin, Ralph Wormeley, Thomas Laidley, Willis Wilson, Hardin Burnley, Jonathan Parsons, John Elliott, George Lee Tuberville, Francis Kirtley, George Baxter, James Wilkinson, and John Allen.

Briggs, Thomas Edmunds, Thomas West, John S. Langhorne, Samuel Edmonson, John Lowry, Richard Lee, and Robert Shield.
And then the main question being put that the House do agree with the committee of the whole House, in the said resolutions;
It was resolved in the affirmative.
Friday, October 31. The House proceeded to consider the resolutions agreed to by the committee of the whole House on Tuesday last, and the same being severally twice read at the Clerk's table, were, on the question put thereupon, agreed to by the House, as follows:
WHEREAS the United States in Congress assembled, did, on the 13th of September, 1788, resolve "That the first Wednesday in January next, be the day for appointing electors in the several states, which before the said day shall have ratified the constitution; that the first Wednesday in February next, be the day for the electors to assemble in their respective states, and vote for a president; and that the first Wednesday in March next be the time, and the present seat of Congress the place for commencing proceedings under the said constitution."
Resolved therefore, that it is the opinion of this committee, That an act or acts ought to pass, for the purpose of carrying the said constitution into effect, in conformity to the above resolution.
Resolved, That it is the opinion of this committee, That the state ought to be divided into ten districts, and that persons qualified to vote for delegates to the general assembly in each district, ought to elect within its own limits, one member to represent them in Congress.
Resolved that it is the opinion of this committee, That the state ought to be divided into twelve districts, and that persons qualified to vote for delegates to the general assembly in each district, ought to appoint within its own limits one elector to choose a president.
Resolved, that it is the opinion of this committee, That the returns of the militia or any other of-
inhabitants in each county within this commonwealth, ought to be their guide in the distribution of districts, both for the choice of representatives to serve in Congress, and for the choice of electors to choose a president.
Resolved, that it is the opinion of this committee, That the elections of each district, for representatives in Congress, ought to be held on the same day at the court house of each respective county composing such district, and the votes therein taken, in like manner and under the same regulations and restrictions, as prescribed by law for the election of delegates to the general assembly.
Resolved, that it is the opinion of this committee, That the elections of each district for electors to choose a president, ought to be conducted in like manner and under the same regulations and restrictions as prescribed by law for the election of delegates to the general assembly.
Ordered, That a bill or bills be brought in pursuant to the said resolutions, and that Mr. Bullitt, Mr. Corbin, Mr. David Stuart, Mr. Monroe, Mr. Grayson, Mr. Zachariah Johnson, Mr. Burnley, Mr. Clay, Mr. Richard Bland Lee, Mr. Pitt, Mr. Selden, Mr. Strother, Mr. M'Clung, Mr. Larking Smith, and Mr. Thomas Smith, do prepare and bring in the same.
A N E C D O T E.
A GENTLEMAN, lately returned from the western country, who had been visiting the fertile banks of the Muskingum, was asked by a friend of his, whether he really believed all those sublime things were true, which had been spoken concerning the goodness of that promised land, whether 10 penny nails did indeed sprout up from a crowbar, after being planted only 24 hours; or whether the streams of Lethe and Cailla are branches of mighty rivers in that paradise of pleasure, and sipping of the waters of the former, the adventurers forget their old language, and tasting of the latter, have it replaced with that of the classics? Why no! says the gentleman, I can't, for my life, believe these sayings to be true, for I can't see how upon earth they can be. But this I can assure you I can bear witness to, however it may fall of belief with some incredulous persons: That just before I left the Muskingum, one day, being on horse-back, having taken some pumpkin seed into my hand, at the door of a house, several of which I dropped, turning about to speak to a person then passing, so instantaneous was their growth—so surprisingly rapid their extension and spread, that before I turned back, the seed had taken root in the earth to such a degree, that I was dangerously encompassed about with enormous serpentine vines, which threatened keeping pace with my utmost exertions to escape being tied in, as I immediately clapped spurs to my horse, and with difficulty was disentangled.
At a Quarterly Meeting of the Society for the Manumission of SLAVES, and protecting such of them as have been or may be liberated, held at the Coffee-House on Thursday evening the 20th November, 1788;
On motion, Resolved unanimously, That the Members of this Society will not encourage any Vendue Master who shall sell any Slave or Slaves at Public Sale hereafter, but will give their business only to such as shall uniformly refrain from a practice so disgraceful and so shocking to humanity.
Resolved, That the Secretary cause the above to be published in the Newspapers of this city.
True Copy from the Minutes, JOHN KEESE, Secretary.
CITY OF NEW-YORK, &c.
At a COMMON COUNCIL, held on Wednesday, November 19, 1788.
WHEREAS from a list of outstanding Debts, produced by the Treasurer, it appears that considerable sums are due to this Corporation; and it being indispensably necessary that the same should be collected as soon as possible to defray the necessary and public expenses of this City.
Ordered, That public notice be given to all persons indebted to this Corporation, that unless they make payment to the Treasurer or Chamberlain of this City, without delay, their respective debts will be put into the hands of an Attorney to be prosecuted.
Extract from the minutes, ROBERT BENSON, Clerk.
The several Printers in this city are requested to publish the above.

THE Proprietor informs the Public that he has received a supply of the very best ingredients with which this Electary is compounded, and as complaints were made that the last, sold by the Apothecary was not good, the proprietor assures the Public it must have been owing to the principal article in the composition being too old, they now may be supplied with it as usual, at Mr. Wainwrights Store, warranted good by the proprietor. Experience, the best criterion to go by, evinces the Electary the best preparation yet discovered for the uses expressed in its title. The ready sale it has heretofore met with, is a proof of its success, and requires little further commendation, save that it so effectually kills the worms, that they are seldom or never brought away alive, but mostly jellied or like humors occasioned by colds.

THE AMERICAN MAGAZINE, AND UNIVERSAL REGISTER:
FOR JANUARY, 1789.
Being No. 1 of Volume II.
BY A SOCIETY OF GENTLEMEN.
THE extensive circulation of the American Magazine for the year past, has induced a desire to enlarge its plan very considerably; and by adding to it a UNIVERSAL REGISTER, to embrace a variety of important objects, which were beyond the reach of a work of this kind in the ordinary method. Instead of confining its view to light essays, and valuable fugitive pieces, the present design is to trace to their source the historical and political concerns of the United States. The efforts of an individual, however strenuous, would be unequal to so arduous an undertaking; in consideration of which, the original proprietor was led to the idea of associating a number of LITERARY CHARACTERS, in hopes that their united exertions might produce a work worthy of a place in the Libraries of the Literati—not only entertaining to readers of the present day, but eminently useful to posterity. Several gentlemen, therefore are now united as proprietors, and have already possessed themselves of many valuable materials; of which that extensive and important collection made by EBENEZER HAZARD, Esq.—the Records of the United Colonies of New-England, and Gov. Winthrop's Journal, or History of the settlement of Massachusetts, form a part.
Their plan is to publish monthly; and that each publication shall consist of 104 pages, 56 of which will contain such useful and entertaining essays, in prose and verse, as are usually found in Magazines. The remainder will be devoted to American State Papers, such as Royal Grants, Charters, Commissions, Instructions, &c. &c. whether to companies or individuals, with other interesting official papers, and authentic manuscripts which respect the Discovery, Settlement, and History of America, and particularly of the UNITED STATES. These will be arranged in chronological order.
It has been often observed that the Anglo Americans are the only people on earth who can trace their history by the indubitable testimony of authentic records and unmutated official papers: and it has been as frequently lamented by the lovers of useful science, that no particular account of the origin and complete establishment of this rising empire hath yet been given to the world. The documents upon which it should be founded, have never been heretofore collected for public inspection; and it is degrading to seek for such a work in a foreign country.
The utility and very interesting nature of this undertaking are so obvious, that the Proprietors cannot but flatter themselves they shall be favored with the public patronage, which they earnestly solicit; and that generous subscriptions will enable them to prosecute with spirit the most expensive attempt of the kind which has ever been made in America.
From the advantageous situation of New-York—its extensive and increasing commerce—its being the seat of Federal Government, and consequently the center of intelligence, will be derived many peculiar advantages: But on a very extensive correspondence, and on an unequalled mass of materials already collected, the proprietors rest their principal hopes of success.
Gentlemen suitably qualified in the different professions are engaged to furnish the proprietors of this work with impartial reviews of new publications.
Religious and political controversies will not be admitted into this Magazine. The first volume of the Register will contain, among other curious papers, the Pope's Bull, concerning the right to the West-Indies to Spain; and the grant to Cabot and his sons for discovering unknown countries.
CONDITIONS.
I. The Magazine will be published monthly; and consist of fifty-six pages, printed on fine paper, and new letter; containing all the variety of useful and entertaining essays, in prose and verse, which is usual in such publications, and be delivered to subscribers at HALF A GUINEA a year. This part of the work may be subscribed for separately.
II. Forty-eight pages of state papers, or American history, will be annexed to the Magazine monthly. This part of the work will also be executed on fine paper and a new type, and the pages so numbered as to form separate volumes.—The price of the Magazine, with this addition, making 1248 pages, will be THREE DOLLARS a year.
III. No money is required at the time of subscribing, but the most punctual payments will be expected at the end of every six months.
Gentlemen of leisure and ingenuity are requested to favor the proprietors with original essays; and all communications addressed to the Editor of the American Magazine and Universal Register, sent, free of expense, to the Printing-Office of FRANCIS CHILDS, No. 190, Water-street, New-York, will be gratefully received, and duly attended to.
The present subscribers for the American Magazine, who also wish to be supplied with the Register, are desired to signify it to those persons with whom they left their subscriptions.

To the Public.
AN attempt having been made by a certain person, to occasion a belief of his having my receipt 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 entirely my own, made during my residence in the island of St. Kitts, where I had under my care (as surgeon to the estates of the Hon. John Julius, Esq. and general Nathaniel) upwards of 500 negroes; for more than two years; that during my practice on those estates 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 certificate given me by the Hon. John Julius, on my resigning 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, rendered by disease incapable of attending my usual 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 attending 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.

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 valuable medicine was first offered, afforded an opportunity, by fair trials, of proving its efficacy, numbers have experienced its virtues within a very short space of time, and many could vouch or its quick effects were it admissible; but the nature of the complaint forbids the idea. The discovery 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 is 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 cast 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 found 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.
