Extract of a letter from Washington county, Oct. 24. "Indian affairs wear an unfavorable aspect. We have no expectation, or reason to expect, an Indian treaty this season."
Early on Wednesday morning the 26th ult. a farmer, with his wife and daughter, coming to market in a waggon, were stopped between Chestnut-hill and Germantown, by two fellows, one of whom putting a pistol to the farmer's breast, obliged him to be a quiet witness of the most brutal violation of his wife by the other villain. Having accomplished their purpose, they made off as we understand, without committing any other depredation. It is said the perpetrators were of that class called wheelbarrow-men; but this is rather improbable, as their object did not appear to be plunder. The unhappy man proceeded to Germantown, and having there disposed of his provisions, &c. returned home with the utmost precipitation.
Friday evening last a robber found means to enter Spruce-street, and locked himself in, until a girl going to put the children to bed, finding the door fast, alarmed the family. The fellow endeavored to escape out of a window, but was taken and committed to jail. He had packed up some cloaths, and had on two shirts belonging to the master of the house.
At a special meeting on Thursday evening of the light company attached to the third regiment, commanded by John Shee, Esq. it was voluntarily and unanimously agreed to perform in rotation the nightly patrolling, as recommended to the executive council by the field officers of the several regiments.

An Act to prevent the Slave-Trade, Passed by the General Assembly of the State of Connecticut, October, 1788.
BE it enacted by the Governor, Council and Representatives in General court assembled, and by the authority of the same; That no citizen or inhabitant of this State shall for himself or any other person, either as master, factor or supercargo, owner or hirer, in whole or in part, of any vessel, directly or indirectly, import or transport, or buy or sell, or receive on board his or her vessel, with intent to cause to be imported or transported, any of the inhabitants of any country in Africa, as slaves or servants for term of years; upon penalty of fifty pounds for every person so received on board as aforesaid; and of five hundred
pounds for every such vessel employed in the importation or transportation aforesaid; to be recovered by action, bill, plaint or information, the one half to the plaintiff, and the other half to the use of the state; and all insurance, which shall be made in this state, on any vessel fitted out to the intent aforesaid and employed as aforesaid, or on any slaves or servants shipped on board as aforesaid, for the purpose aforesaid; shall be void, and this act may be given in evidence, under the general issue, in any suit commenced for the recovery of such insurance.
Be it further enacted by the authority aforesaid, That if any person shall kidnap, decoy or forcibly carry off out of this state, any free Negro, Indian, Mulatto, or any person entitled to freedom at the age of twenty-five years, inhabitants or residents within this state, or shall be aiding or abetting therein, and be thereof duly convicted, shall forfeit one hundred pounds to the use of this state, to be recovered by bill, plaint or information, presented by any friend of such inhabitant or resident, which he is hereby authorised to do; and the court before whom the trial shall be, shall in addition to said penalty, on conviction, give to the prosecutor, for the use of such injured inhabitant, or his family, if any he have, such sum in damages, as they shall judge just and reasonable, to be applied in such way and manner, as the court shall direct; and the said prosecutor shall give bond with surety, before the court, for the due application of the sums recovered, before he has execution thereof. Provided that nothing in this act shall operate to prevent persons removing out of this state, for the purpose of residence, from carrying or transporting with them, such Negroes or Mulattoes, as belong to them, or to prevent persons living within this state, from directing their servants out of this state, about their ordinary and necessary business.
And be it further enacted by the authority aforesaid, That the owner, master or factor of each and every vessel clearing out for the coast of Africa, or suspected by any citizen of this state, to be intended for the slave trade in any part of the world, and the suspicion being declared to the naval officer, by such citizen on oath, and such information being to the satisfaction of such naval officer, shall first give bond with sufficient sureties, to the treasurer of this state, in one thousand pounds, that none of the natives of Africa, or any other foreign country, shall be taken on board said ship or vessel, during her voyage, with intent to be transported as slaves, to any other part of the world.
And be it further enacted by the authority aforesaid, That all persons who now are or hereafter shall be possessed of any children born after the first day of March, 1784, and which by law shall be free at the age of twenty-five years, shall within six months from the rising of this assembly, or within six months after the birth of any such child, deliver or cause to be delivered to the town clerk of the town, where such possessor belongs, the name of such possessor, as also the age, name and sex of every such child or children, on oath, to the best of his or her knowledge, under the penalty of forty shillings for each and every month's neglect, to be recovered before an assistant or justice of the peace, the one half to the complainant, and the other half to the use of the poor of the town where such children live.
Boston, Nov. 5. We hear that the committee raised to consider a mode of election of electors of President of the United States, &c. have reported to the hon. senate, in which they are of opinion, that the choice of electors ought to be by the joint ballot of the two branches of the legislature: to effect a choice of federal representatives, that the state ought to be divided into eight districts; but that the inhabitants of no district be obliged to confine their choice to a citizen of that district—and, that in the choice of senators, each branch ought to have a negative on the other. This report was last evening accepted by the hon. senate, and a committee raised to bring in a bill accordingly.
Providence, November 1. Sunday last the sloop Lively, Capt. Nathaniel Hunt, arrived here in 9 days from Charleston, S. Carolina.

A few days before Capt. Hunt failed, an affray happened at Charleston, in which the mate of a British vessel was killed, and two seamen belonging to the same vessel badly wounded. Two persons were apprehended and secured in gaol, and a jury of inquest had returned a verdict of wilful murder.
On the 24th ult. in lat. 40. 20. long. 69. 30. Capt. Hunt spoke the brig Boston, Samuel Gardner, master, from Tenerife, bound to Philadelphia, out 51 days, all well.

SHERIFF'S SALES.
THE Sale of the north-easterly half part of Great Barn Island, Taken on an execution issued against the property of John Parfett, is postponed until WEDNESDAY the nineteenth inst. then to be sold at the Coffee-House, between 12 & 1 o'clock on that day by ROBERT BOYD, Sheriff. November 11, 1788.
On the first Day of February next, Will be PUBLISHED in this City, THE AMERICAN MAGAZINE, AND UNIVERSAL REGISTER: FOR J A N U A R Y, 1789. Being No. I 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 unutilated 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, confirming 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.

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 pre- serving 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 Bri- tish 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 after- wards saw them all chained to and sunk along side 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 bot- tom 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.

Specific Solution. PROVED by experience (even in this day) 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.
