NEW-YORK, May 1.  ** The Printer has this day removed his Office from No. 22, Hanover-square, to No. 190, Water-street, corner of King-street; where all Letters, Advertisements, &c. are requested to be sent. Subscribers, changing their places of abode, are desired to give information thereof to the Carriers.
Extract of a letter received last evening, from a gentleman at Baltimore, to his correspondent in this city, dated Sunday, April 27, 1788.  "This morning I was informed that the Convention had decided on the grand question; 63 members were for the Government, and 11 against it. A Committee of thirteen were appointed to prepare amendments; which, if approved of, will be submitted to the people for their assent. The Constitution is to be signed on Monday."  The information on which the above letter was written, may be relied on as authentic.
Extract of a letter from a gentleman of information, on the Frontiers of Virginia, to his friend in this city, dated 19th March, 1788.  "I have lately been informed, that favorable proposals have been made to the Kentuckians, by Great-Britain, in order to induce them to quit our Confederacy. With respect to the new Constitution, it will be adopted by Virginia, fully, in the full instance; and some amendments may probably afterwards be proposed."  On the 4th of March last died, at his house in Wimpole-street, Cayendish-square, London, Lieutenant-General JAMES ROBERTSON, Colonel of the 16th regiment of foot, and late Governor of New-York.
To the CITIZENS of NEW-YORK.  A PERSON who addresses you under the signature of A PLAIN CITIZEN, is very angry at the Remarks made by me on the Leaders of the Party to which he belongs, which he affects to consider as indecent and untrue; and endeavors to resort by some quaint observations upon particular characters in the Federal List, which I suppose he would have us to believe are both decent and true. The effect now it seems is to turn the quarrel with the Constitution into a quarrel with the Lawyers; and to enlist your supposed prejudices against a particular profession, in opposition to your judgments and interests in a great political question. In this, as in all their other attempts, your good sense will disappoint them. You know how to distinguish your Magistrates from the Practisers of the Law; and you know that men of abilities and integrity cannot be worse qualified for judging of the merits of a Constitution, because Government and Laws have been the study of their lives. As to their observation that five of the Gentlemen proposed to you, live, move and have their being by the salaries they receive from the public, I shall only reply, that it conveys more than is true, as most of them have sufficient means of support which they owe to no public station, and that as far as it is true with respect to some of them, it affords you the strongest proof of their disinterestedness and patriotism. The salaries they have, are attached to offices which they hold under the government of the state; and when State Officers are advocates for giving power to the Union, there is a strong presumption that they prefer the public good to their own consequence. As to the jargon about the elevation of the few on the ruins of the many, this is the cant of the party, to which no other answer can be given than to shew it applies to those who use it more, than to those against whom it is used. This was one object of my Address yesterday; but, as it is high time that the imposition they have been too long permitted to practice with impunity should be detected and exposed to your just indignation, I shall select, as a proof of what I have said, the Head of their Party.
To those who have opportunities of information it is well known, that Governor CLINTON is a man of large Property—that he is among the wealthiest men of the State; and that he has acquired almost
the whole of his property in his present station. These are facts which cannot be disputed.  How far he may be actuated by motives of ambition or avarice, you, my Fellow Citizens, can determine as well as myself. You know in what manner he supports your dignity and his own with the ample salary and perquisites he receives from the State; and you can judge,—whether it is most probable his opposition to the consolidation of your national Union proceeds from a pure attachment to your interests, or from an undue attachment to his own power.
More solid conclusions may be drawn from circumstances of this kind, than from the occupation or profession of a man, whatever it may be. But even here the Governor stands upon the same footing with those to whom the objection is made: for, though it may seem strange to you after all the pother to which you have been witness, the Governor is himself a Lawyer. He was bred a Lawyer, and practiced as a Lawyer till the revolution called him into a different situation.
I mention these matters to you, my Fellow Citizens, with reluctance; but I owe it to you and to justice. It is necessary you should know who are the men that are continually dinning in your ears the danger of being looted over by the wealthy and the great . It is necessary you should understand that they are themselves among the wealthy , and the first among the great , as far as that epithet can apply to any man in a republican government. It is necessary, in short, that you should be undeceived.
I mean not to impute wealth to any man as a reproach; nor yet to insinuate that it is a crime to acquire it in public stations;—I only mean to reprobate the conduct of men who endeavour to excite your jealousies of others, for what they are themselves:— hypocrisy and deceit are always odious. Let not men pretend to be what they are not: nor attempt to raise a cry against others for what they are themselves.
Permit me again, my Fellow Citizens, to exhort you to give new proofs, THIS DAY, of the laudable zeal by which you are actuated. Let the example of Philadelphia admonish you. There is no spot in the United States more federal than that city; yet, from an idea that their exertions were not necessary, they suffered a choice to be made by a small number of votes—The men whom they wished were chosen; but it was represented through the State, to be the work of an inconsiderable faction; and a very mischievous handle has been made of the circumstance. Let us take away all pretext for such a representation in this State.
ONE OF YOURSELVES.  New-York, April 30, 1788.  N. B. Beware of Counterfeits! Yesterday a very curious artifice was detected. Tickets were dealt out as Federal Tickets with the Governor at the head, but so folded down as not to be perceived; and to appear to the persons to whom they were given, to be the same Ticket as that which was recommended to you by the Meeting, of which Alderman Randal was Chairman.
To the CITIZENS of NEW-YORK.  S OME of the publications of yesterday evince to you the efforts of expiring faction. The Antifederal party, like drowning men, are catching at straws; and have labored hard to make you believe, that the Federal nomination is composed of men, who will betray your best interests. The greater part of them (say they) are Judges and Lawyers; and, strange to tell! to add to their incapacity or inability, they live, move, and have their being among you . But be not deceived, my Fellow-Citizens; for, altho' the gentlemen who compose the Ticket I have just now mentioned, are chiefly Judges and Lawyers, and tho' it may be their misfortune to live, move, and have their being among men , who, by their conduct, are avowed enemies to a Federal Government; yet their characters, as honest men, is fully within your knowledge—as such, you will not hesitate to make choice of them. Despise, then, the wretched artifices of a designing few, who, having long riotied in the luxury of State Offices, still wish to add farm to farm, and house to house; and are as unwilling to part with the sweets of Office as with their last breath.
April 30, 1788.  A CITIZEN.  The Sheriff's Office  I removed to MAIDEN-LANE, in the house lately occupied by James Giles, Esq. attorney at law, directly opposite to Mr. Veldine Ellsworth's. 107 April 21.
