To be Sold Cheap at private Sale,
THE place which William Provost formerly occupied, which for elegance of situation is perhaps equal to any in the State of New-Jersey, it lies three quarters of a mile from the church of Hackinack, and extends from the river up the road towards Paramus, being intersected by the road leading to the New Bridge: On the Lot next the river is a Stone DWELLING-HOUSE, two story high in front, and three in rear, having a fine dry Cellar and a Dwelling-Room underneath on the ground floor, (being built on the declivity of a hill) with a large Kitchen adjoining: Also, a Poultry-House and a new Barn; in the rear of the Dwelling-House is a beautiful Green, ornamented with Fruit-Trees; between which and the river, lies a valuable piece of Meadow, yielding about twenty-four loads of English hay yearly: to the rear of the meadow is a spacious and substantial Dock, newly made, on which is a Store with a large quantity of ashes, an extraordinary Spring and Well at the Dwelling-House, from which the Meadow may be watered: There is also a Garden with a variety of the best Fruit-Trees: On the Lot on the opposite side of the road stands a commodious Store, commanding the trade of the back country; also a young Orchard of good Fruit-Trees. The whole of the place contains about thirty-four or five acres, twelve of which are Wood-Land; the Land has been well manured with ashes; the whole of the Land inclosed with a new substantial fence.
The beauty of this situation, and its advantages for trade, make it eligible either as a Country Seat or a place of business. To be sold in three different Lots, or the whole together, as may best suit the purchaser; if not sold by the first day of April next, then to be rented. For terms, apply to D. LEEFFERTS, in Maiden-Lane, No. 21, New-York, who will give a good title for the same. The conditions of payment will be made easy to the Purchaser. If any person wants to view the place, apply to D. LEEFFERTS, he will send a Person with him. Feb. 5, 1788. 3tw m w & f.

For the DAILY ADVERTISER.
Robert R. Livingston, Alex. Hamilton, Richard Morris, Isaac Roosevelt, John Jay, Nicholas Low, John S. Hobart, Richard Harrison, James Duane,
Mr. CHILDS,
THE above gentlemen, being held up in the Daily Advertiser of the 10th inst. as proper persons to be elected Delegates to serve in the ensuing Convention for the city and county of New-York, must afford real satisfaction to every honest and discerning man; but as many persons who will vote upon this great and important occasion, have arrived in this city since the revolution who must necessarily be unacquainted with the public conduct of these gentlemen during the late war, render some observations on that subject necessary; particularly as other nominations have been held up in some of the public prints.
Early in the late war, when the United States were surrounded with danger, and to all appearance devoted to destruction, Mr. LIVINGSTON announced to his tenants, by a publication in the news-papers, that the leases of such of them as should be slain or disabled in the service of their country, should be renewed to their children at the old rent, without fine or other consideration; and after the British burned Esopus, Mr. Livingston made a present of an estate in fee to the sufferers, worth upwards of 10,000 dollars, tho' his own and his mother's dwelling houses, offices and mills were at the same time destroyed by the enemy. If these are not proofs of magnanimity and patriotism I do not know what are.
Mr. LIVINGSTON'S legal knowledge, integrity and virtue are eminently conspicuous in his decisions in the Court of Chancery of this State; his address is elegant and easy, and his manners fascinating; his speeches are replete with information, and delivered with propriety; his power of reasoning uncommonly great, like the torrent of a mighty river, he bears all before him; and as a statesman and an orator, he is not excelled in the United States.
Mr. MORRIS's attachment to the interests of his country is unquestionable. This gentleman possessed the Office of Judge of Admiralty, and also Clerk of the Circuit Courts, for the late Province of New-York, under the British Government, previous to the late war; the emoluments of the first of which Offices, he must have been fully convinced, would in the course of that war, have been extremely productive, from his experience in the same office, during the late French, or Canadian war in America; notwithstanding which, he left his seat near Kingsbridge, retired to Clavarack, and served his country faithfully in a public station, during the war, by which, he sacrificed 50,000 guineas, which his successor in that office accumulated. Mr. Morris, has had long and great experience in public business, and now discharges the exalted station of Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of this State, with a distinguished and fidelity, which reflect the highest honor on him.
The distinguished abilities, and unshaken integrity of Mr. JAY, recommended him at an early period in life, to all his acquaintance, as well as to the notice of the British Government, in the late Province of New-York, antecedent to the war; inasmuch, that he would have been appointed to one of the first offices in that Province, upon the first vacancy that should happen: Nevertheless when the rights of his country became invaded by the British, he took a decided and active part in her favor; his uniform services since, both at home and abroad, particularly in the formation of the Treaty of Peace, so peculiarly advantageous and beneficial to the interest of the United States; in the management and prosecution of which, he had a principal share. Mr. Jay's legal knowledge is incontrovertible; his arguments are methodically arranged and drawn forth with judgment; he reasons logically and well, and excels most men in dissecting the arguments of his opponents, and rendering them futile and nugatory; he is able and pointed in reply, and possesses the powers of persuasion in an eminent degree; in short, Mr. Jay is endowed with the necessary qualifications to constitute a Statesman.
Mr. HOBART, served his country during the war, in Congress, Convention and Committee, with great integrity and zeal; he is a gentleman of considerable political abilities, and experienced in public business, and an upright Judge.
Though Mr. DUANE was foremost on the list of preferment under the British Government, in the late Province of New-York, before the war, and at the same time perfectly sensible, that he would secure a very large landed property, worth at least 100,000. or the value thereof, by adhering to that government, which by taking a different part he must inevitably have lost;
yet he took a decided part in favor of his country, and has by the revolution lost all that great property. He has been indefatigable in the service of his country as a member of Congress during almost the whole of the war. Mr. Duane's legal knowledge is universally acknowledged. As a judge he gives general satisfaction to the public, and is much esteemed and respected by the gentlemen of the bar; his manners are easy and his private character irreproachable. Mr. Duane is a good politician; he reasons closely, and with perspicuity and judgment, possessing the powers of persuasion in no small degree; his arguments are well calculated both to conciliate and enforce conviction; and as a man of business, he is excelled by none in this country.
The publications of Col. HAMILTON, in defence of the liberties of America previous to the late war, when a youth in the college of New-York; his great military services, and the confidential line in which he stood with that good and great man General WASHINGTON, during that war, are indubitable proofs of his virtue. As a lawyer, a politician, and a statesman, Col. Hamilton is certainly great; as a public speaker he is clear, pointed and sententious; he excels most men in reply, being possessed of the powers of reasoning in an eminent degree, and he is endowed with a most benevolent and good heart.
Mr. ROOSEVELT is an honest, virtuous and respectable gentleman, possessed of a large property in this city, which he risked in the service of his country during the war, and by which he suffered largely.
Mr. LOW, who quitted all his relations in New-York and Jersey, and joined the friends to his country in the late war, is a gentleman of probity and honor, possessed of considerable information and great mercantile abilities; he also reasons well upon most subjects.
Tho' Mr. HARRISON was as much opposed to the unjust principles upon which the British Government taxed this country, before the late war, as any man in it, yet he differed in opinion from many of his contemporaries and relations, respecting the war. He dreaded the power of Great-Britain, and feared that the United States would be unable to procure foreign alliance, and that the consequences of the war, would be fatal to this country; but Mr. Harrison at an early period, publicly declared, that he would take no part against this country. This declaration he religiously and uniformly adhered to, having positively refused to practice in the Court of Admiralty in New-York, during the war, or be concerned either directly or indirectly in the condemnation of the vessels and cargoes owned by the Americans, and other friends to his country; tho' repeatedly and earnestly solicited to undertake the management and prosecution of business in that Court, by which he could have accumulated a large fortune, as others have done; but he absolutely declined, assuring the several persons who applied to him on this head, that he never would be concerned against the interest of his country. This conduct drew on him the resentment of the British, before the arrival of General Carleton, who withheld his house and brewery, at the North-River, for a long time, without paying for the same. If these are not proofs of disinterestedness and virtue, I do not know what are. After the Preliminary Articles were signed, and hostilities ceased, Mr. Harrison, to serve a number of his countrymen, accepted the appointment of a Commissioner for examining, and settling the accounts of some people on Long-Island and Staten-Island, who supplied the British with forage, and were not paid, before General Carleton's arrival; in this station, Mr. Harrison rendered these poor people, who were staunch Whigs, the utmost justice; those under the denomination of Tories, having been paid before.
Mr. Harrison's private character is unsoiled; his address easy, and his manners pleasing; his legal knowledge incontrovertible; he reasons closely and well; his language is pure and correct, and his arguments methodically arranged, and well calculated to enforce conviction; and as a man of business, he is equalled by few in this country.

NEW-YORK, March 21.
Our last accounts from Poughkeepsie were dated on Monday, the 17th instant. They inform us, that on that day, in the House of Senators,
Mr. Lawrence moved, that the Senate would proceed to the re-consideration of the resolution of Saturday, for appointing the town of Schenectady, in the county of Albany, for the place of the next meeting of the Legislature.
On this motion debates arose, and the question being put, the Senate divided in following manner:
For the Affirmative. Messrs. Townsend, Vanderbilt, L'Hommedieu, Ph. Schuyler, Duane, Floyd, Morris, Lawrence, Tredwell. 9
For the Negative. Messrs. Yates, Swartwout, Humphrey, Hopkins, Van Nels, Hoffman, Parks, Russel, Hathorn. 9
The Senate being equally divided on the question, a debate took place on the propriety of deciding it by a less number than two thirds of the Members present; on which Mr. Lawrence moved for the following question:
"Whether on a question, that the Senate proceed to the re-consideration of a resolution (agreed to on a previous day, and then postponed on notice given that a re-consideration would be moved for) such a re-consideration can be had, unless with the consent of two-thirds of the Members present?"
The question was called on this motion, and carried in the Negative, as follows:
Negative. Messrs. Yates, Humphreys, Swartwout, Hopkins, Van Nels, Hoffman, Parks, Russel, Hathorn, Tredwell. 10
Affirmative. Messrs. Townsend, Vanderbilt, L'Hommedieu, Ph. Schuyler, Duane, Floyd, Morris, Lawrence. 8
The question being then put, for the re-consideration of the resolution, passed in the Negative by more than one third of the Members present; the names being the same as on the first division.
It was thereupon Resolved, (if the Hon. Assembly would concur therein) That the Legislature shall meet on the first Monday in January next, at the town of Schenectady, in the county of Albany, unless sooner called by proclamation of his Excellency the Governor.
The same day this resolution was brought into the House of Assembly, for concurrence.
On the question for concurring, a division was called: Affirmative. Messrs. Carman, Sylvester, Tearse, Baker, De Witt, Van Orden, Frey, Powers, Webster, Savage, Schoonmaker, Cantine, Bruyn, Sickles, Younglove, John Livingston, Winn, Veeder. 18
Negative. Messrs. Jones, Cornwall, Winant, Niven, J. Smith, Doughty, Wyckoff, Patterson, Strang, Benfson, Hedges, Osborn, Graham, Low, Verplanck, Brooks, Clinton, Lewis, Tompkins, Harrison, Havens, N. Smith, Drake, Clark, Thomas. 25
A resolution, in the usual form, was then moved for by Mr. Low, That the Legislature should adjourn, to meet at Brooklyne.
Mr. Brooks thought it necessary to observe, that Brooklyne, though it might not be convenient for the accommodation of the Legislature, yet it was in a good neighborhood.
Mr. Jones wished the question might not be put; the question for New-York and Albany having been lost, to move for Schenectady or Brooklyne was trifling. If nothing better could be done, the sessions must continue to be held at Poughkeepsie; it could not be helped.
Mr. Brooks would not trifle with a matter for private convenience; it was the opinion of the House a few days since, that it was for the advantage of the State that the Legislature should meet at New-York; the then majority in the Senate having taken such measures as to counteract that opinion; it was fair now to move for some place as near that city as possible. At New-York all the public records were kept; Members could there obtain information, and more readily dispatch the public business.
Mr. Jones then called for the previous question.
Mr. Brooks said he was astonished at this; the previous question had not before been called for since he had had the honor of a seat in the Legislature, even on subjects of moment.
Mr. Jones said that any member had a right to call for the previous question and that it must be put.
The question was accordingly taken on the motion of Mr. Jones "that the question on Mr. Low's motion could not be taken."
Affirmative. Messrs. Jones, Tearse, Baker, Patterson, De Witt, Van Orden, Frey, Powers, Webster, Savage, Schoonmaker, Cantine, Bruyn, Benfson, Graham, Sickles, Younglove, Clinton, N. Smith, Winn, Clarke, Veeder. 22
Negative. Messrs. Carman, Cornwall, Winant, Niven, J. Smith, Doughty, Wyckoff, Sylvester, Strang, Hedges, Osborn, Low,
Verplanck, Brooks, John Livingston, Lewis, Tompkins, Harrison, Havens, Drake, Thomas. 21.
Thus the Legislature will another year be kept at a distance from the Capital, and in a remote and muddy town, where they can have neither information of the true interests of the State, nor accommodations for themselves and those who have to attend them.
HOUSE of ASSEMBLY, POUGHKEEPSIE.
Saturday March 8, 1788.
The House met pursuant to adjournment.
A petition from Eleanor Blaw, of New-York, widow, concerning the forfeiture of her husband's estate, and praying to have a part of it restored, for the support of herself and children, was read and referred to a Committee of the whole House.
A petition of James Parker, of Amboy, in New-Jersey, concerning the estate of the late Dr. Johnston, was read, when on motion it was ordered that leave be given to bring in a Bill at the next session, agreeable to the prayer of the petition; first advertising the same for the space of six weeks, in one or more of the newspapers printed in New-York.

Yesterday evening was married by the Rev. Mr. Moore, Mr. Charles Wilkes to Miss Shaw, of this city.
Mr. CHILDS, As you are so obliging to make your paper the public channel of useful and pleasing intelligence, I hope you will insert the following lines, in which you will do a favor to a lover of
Regular Observance.
On my way last Sunday to church, I seen several persons going into a tavern, in one of the leading streets of this city, with evident marks of displeasure, and some warmth of expression. I asked a little yellow ill-looking fellow (whom I supposed to be master of the house) how he would presume to admit persons to drink in time of divine service? He replied, with the usual insolence of such fellows, that a Bacchanalian society was instituted in his house; that, as he had his religion to chuse, he was not averse to it; and as he thought a tavern the most proper temple for such service, he freely admitted them. The temple was to be dedicated that morning, and if I thought proper, I might view the ceremony. I accordingly (impelled by curiosity) walked in, and was ushered into a very large room, in general set apart for more rational entertainment, and thus the Bacchanals commenced:—The Bacchanalian sacrificer, headed the votaries of the Deity, and approached a large table well covered with different wines. He then, vested in his robes, invoked the Deity with copious libations of port, when, he was immediately seized with an uncommon trembling, so that his humble assistants seized in like manner by the spirit of Bacchus, were scarcely able to place him on a couch, where he swooned away, whilst they slept. A lusty old man, whom I took to be the verger, placed coffee on a stool, strongly impregnated with the spirits of wine, to incense the altar, and purify the minister, who after a short repose thus addressed the God:—My God, and my all, we humbly invoke thy powerful assistance, to dedicate this temple worthy to thy gracious name; long have I faithfully served thee, do thou O son of Jupiter! grant me strength to persevere to the end, and may those my assistants be always pleasing in thy sight; make the presses groan to furnish thy altar with precious juice, and enable all your votaries to drink greedily of them in glory and honor of thee. Come then jolly mortals fill bumpers to the God, let the bottles go round, and the jingling glasses found in honor of mighty Bacchus.
The ceremony was interrupted, by an uncommon noise at the door; when behold! Lais, as white as snow, accompanied by thirty votaries of Venus, preceded by some dancing Cupids, with all due reverence approached the shrine, and after devoutly sacrificing to the God, in the largest goblets of sparkling Champaigne, thus addressed the attentive Priest. "Oh! God-like Dervise, behold at thy feet the humble slave of Venus beseeching thee to sacrifice once more to your God in behalf of his mighty sister, that as she is so devoted to his cause, he may be pleased to admit her as a partner of his glory. Raise thou fair one, replied the admiring divine, I know right well the will of my master, thy petition is granted, I myself have often witnessed your zeal for him and your assiduous toils in the service of the other; quaff this liquor in honor of him and I will ratify his consent with a loving kiss on your ruby lips; from hence forward therefore, my learned friends, this temple shall be sacred to the mighty Bacchus, and endearing Venus; for ye right well know, that fine Cerere et Baccho, frigit Venus. On you it is incumbent to explain this Latin verse, and to me is reserved the comment in the Court of Venus, let Smith be called to make a maiden lock and let this house no longer be prophaned. Thus the dedication ended, and in a few days the venereal gambols will commence.
