By His Excellency  GEORGE CLINTON, Esq. Governor of the State of New York, General and Commander in Chief of all the Militia, and Admiral of the Navy of the same.
A PROCLAMATION. WHEREAS His Excellency JAMES BOWDOIN, Esq. Governor of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, did issue his proclamation, bearing date the ninth day of this instant month of February, setting forth, that the General Court of the said Commonwealth had, on the fourth day of the said month declared, that a horrid and unnatural rebellion had been openly and traitorously, raised and levied against the said Commonwealth, with design to subvert and overthrow the constitution and form of government thereof, and further setting forth, that it appeared that Daniel Shays, of Pelham, and Luke Day, of West Springfield, in the county of Hampshire; Adam Wheeler, of Hubbardston, in the county of Worcester, and Eli Parsons, of Adams, in the county of Berkshire, within the said Commonwealth, had been principals in, and abettors and supporters of the said unnatural, unprovoked, and wicked rebellion against the dignity, authority and government of the said Commonwealth: The said proclamation was therefore at the desire of the said General Court, issued for discovering and apprehending the said several offenders above named, so that they might be rendered to justice; and it was thereby declared, that the persons who should apprehend them, should be entitled to receive out of the public treasury for that service, a reward of one hundred and fifty pounds for the said Daniel Shays, one hundred pounds each for the said Luke Day, Adam Wheeler, and Eli Parsons; and his said Excellency the Governor of the said Commonwealth hath, in conformity to the articles of confederation and perpetual union between the United States, demanded of me, that the said offenders above named, if they shall have fled to this State, be delivered up and removed to the said Commonwealth: And whereas the Senate and Assembly of this State, in order more fully to evince the sense of the government of this State, have requested me to give assurances that the several rewards above mentioned, will be paid out of the treasury of this State, to any person or persons who shall apprehend the said offenders above named respectively, and deliver them into the custody of any of the Sheriffs within this State. I have thereof issued this proclamation, hereby requiring all Sheriffs and other officers, and ministers of justice within their respective bailiwicks and jurisdictions, and all other the citizens of this State, to take and apprehend the said Daniel Shays, Luke Day, Adam Wheeler and Eli Parsons, if they shall be found within this State, and convey to one of the gaols within this State, and deliver them to the keeper of such gaol, who is hereby required to receive them, and to keep them in safe and close custody in such gaol, until they the said several offenders above named shall be removed to the said Commonwealth of Massachusetts, or until they shall severally, by due course of law, be delivered from the gaol to which they shall be respectively committed: And I do hereby offer and assure to the person or persons, who shall, within this State, apprehend the said Daniel Shays, Luke Day, Adam Wheeler and Eli Parsons, severally, and deliver them into the custody of any of the Sheriffs thereof, the respective rewards above mentioned, to be paid out of the treasury of this State: And I do hereby enjoin and require the citizens of this State not to supply with provisions, arms or military stores, nor to afford any other aid whatsoever to any person or persons who shall be found in arms against the said Commonwealth, as they will answer the same at their peril.
Given under my hand and the Privy Seal, at the city of New-York, this 24th day of February, in the eleventh year of the Independence of the said State, 1787. GEO. CLINTON.

TO BE SOLD At Public Auction, on Tuesday the twentieth day of March next, at South-Haven, in Suffolk county, Long-Island.
ALL that valuable FARM, together with the house and out-houses, formerly the property of Col. Richard Floyd. There are few situations on Long-Island preferable to this, in almost every point of view. It is as equally profitable to the husbandman, as pleasurable to the gentleman. It lies on the south side of Long-Island, about seventy miles distant from the city of New York, and is situated between the manor of St. George and Mallich. There are about five hundred acres of fine cleared land, a sufficient quantity of salt meadow to fodder two hundred head of cattle annually; and several hundred acres of woodland belonging to the farm. It includes three necks of land, and has all the advantages of fishing, fowling, &c. &c. In fine, there are few plantations that command such variety of amusement, and at the same time can conduce so much to the real profit of its possessor. Should the whole farm be deemed too large for persons inclining to purchase, it will be divided into four or greater parts. The title is derived from the State.—For further particulars enquire of Col. Benjamin Floyd, at Brook-Haven, Suffolk county, or to David Floyd, at Fort-neck, in Queens county, or to W. Cock, in the city of New-York. 73 19th Feb. 1787. BENJAMIN FLOYD.

To the Printers of the New-York Packet.
I Have lately seen in one of your papers, a publication, in the form of a letter from Mr. Reyer Schermerhorn to his Excellency the Governor, and intended doubtless to charge me with improper conduct in the execution of my office. The character of my accuser is well known: I do not mention this, however, as supposing that from that circumstance only it will be concluded that the accusation is altogether malicious and cannot be supported; but only as a reason for my not altering with him in a public news-paper. He chiefly complains of a letter, from His Excellency the Governor of this State to Governor Bowdoin of Massachusetts, intimating suspicions of forgery against him. This letter was written on my application, and from my information, and if I have imposed falsehoods on the Governor it was highly offensive in me. It is not for me to invite an enquiry which may occasion expense and trouble to me; if any part of my conduct however has been improper, I may be questioned for it in a Court of Justice or before the Governor and Council of Appointment, and I shall be ready to answer at either of those tribunals. On a proper application from Mr. Schermerhorn, such an enquiry may take place, and I conceive that this is the only mode in which the questions between him and me can be examined in order to determine the truth or fallacy of his accusations.
I remain your most obedient servant, HERMAN HOFFMAN. Red-Hook, Feb. 28, 1787. 762
JUDICIAL ADJUDGES.
L O N D O N. Jan. 3. By Monday's French mail we received an account of the following atrocious event, recorded in a letter, dated Paris Dec. 24. Advices from the Cape of Good Hope import, that "the ship Rosetter, that left Bourdeaux in April last, arrived about midnight, in sight of Table-bay, on the 12th of August following: as she was intended to carry on the coasting trade in India, the Captain had on board a very large sum, all in piastres. Unable at his
departure to complete his crew with French seamen, he had been compelled to take on board two Italian sailors, then at Bourdeaux, whose names were Pelasco. These two brothers being of a turbulent and seditious disposition, swore vengeance against the Captain, who had ordered the eldest of them to be put in irons. On the night of the 12th of August, as the Commander and his Mate retired to rest, after the fatigue of the day, the two Italians found means to gain over to their party the carpenter and cook. They altogether made up to the boatswain, and, with one blow, almost severed his head from his body, without uttering a single groan. The sleeping officers were the next victims to their rage; the mate was presently despatched, but the Captain got up, defended himself, followed the assassins upon deck, but there he was stabbed by one of them, and instantly thrown overboard. The Sieur Bois, master, was the only man who could oppose them; his death was resolved upon; but at his earnest solicitations, they spared his life, provided he would engage to kill the cabin-boy, who in his fright, had fled for safety to the hatches. The bloody monster called him up in the mildest terms, assuring him he had nothing to apprehend; but the too credulous youth no sooner appeared, than Bois plunged a dagger into his heart. He himself did not remain long unpunished for this act of cruelty, the cook perceived, and advised his accomplices that Bois had privately seized upon the Captain's chest. Alarmed at this intelligence, the murderers offered to shoot him; but he begged to be thrown into the sea; in hopes, no doubt, that, as he was a good swimmer, he could easily reach the shore, which was at no considerable distance. His request was complied with, but the Folacons perceiving that he attempted to swim, took to the boat, and jointly struck him with their oars till he sunk to the bottom. They then returned to the ship, loaded the boat with every thing valuable, and then bored a hole in the bottom of the former to sink her, providentially, however, the vessel, bore up by the tide, entered the port—The French Commissary, M on t. Bergerin de Monchy, had the ship visited, and judging from the blood on the deck and other parts, partly the truth of what had happened, took such measures that the murderers were found out lurking about the country, brought back to the Cape of Good Hope, and there confined till they can be brought to their trial, and undergo the punishment due to their treacherous perfidy."
Jan. 4. Letters from Berlin, dated December 16, declare, that his Prussian Majesty has lately given a most striking proof of his attention to his marine, of which our correspondent gives the following account:
"With regard to maritime and naval affairs, 1300 Prussian vessels, on an average, pass annually through the Sound, and the Prussian flag ranks in the fifth class among those that are displayed in the Baltic. This navigation is supported by that industry which the late King excited in all his dominions. The whole cabinet of natural and artificial productions or the produce of the labour of the Prussian monarchy, amounts, as is computed, to forty millions of crowns every year, the half of which is exported to foreign countries. The pains which the late King bestowed, in order to establish trading companies to China and the East Indies, failed through the misconduct, it is said, of those who had engaged to carry his Majesty's schemes of commerce into execution. His hopes neither appear to have been extravagant or ill founded."
"The port of Emden may certainly be made one of the best in Europe. It is situated in the middle of the continent, between the Baltic, German, and Atlantic seas; and such is the prerogative of local situation, that in the lapse of time, it may one day become a general emporium between the nations of the North & South; for which purpose the Prussian monarchy, as is evident from a single glance of the map, by means of the great rivers it contains, is very advantageously situated."

B O S T O N. Feb. 20. The accounts received from General Lincoln's army on Saturday evening last, were, that two troops of Light Horse were in pursuit of Shays, on different routes—and that they were within a few miles of him, near White-Creek, in the State of New York; and 'tis not doubted he has by this time fallen into their hands.
About 12 o'clock, on Sunday night last, the public gaol in this town was discovered to be on fire; but the alarm being seasonably given by the watch, and a number of persons, near at hand, affording their immediate and vigorous assistance, the flames were got under, and the wooden part of that large building was happily saved from a second destruction.—The fire began in the room in which Joseph Smith, Charles Lee and James Mory were confined. They perpetrated the crime of kindling it with a view of effecting their escape.
Died, on the 5th instant, at Dartmouth-College, the Rev. Sylvanus Ripley, Professor of Divinity, and one of the Trustees of said College. Returning from a neighbouring town, where he had been occasionally preaching, he was suddenly thrown out of the sleigh, and his head crushed between that and a piece of timber, by which means his skull was so fractured that he expired in a few hours.
It is so fashionable for men in public life to have panegyrics written for them when they are dead, that those unacquainted can form no idea
of their real merit by reading their characters in news-papers. But, if the most disinterested views in wading through all the fatigues and hardships attending the founding and raising up of an institution in an unsettled country, on whom, in its difficulties, great part of its cares devolved; if a delight to preach the most evangelical truths of the gospel, joined with an early and unblemished life of piety; if an indefatigable zeal to replenish the minds of youth with literature, piety and morality, with so happy a talent of instructing as to obtain the universal esteem of his pupils; if all these, joined with the most humane disposition, form a truly deserving character, all his acquaintance now mourn the loss of a truly deserving man.

We learn from Berkshire, that the report concerning the misconduct of Gen. Patterson, is without foundation. Many turbulent fomenters of the rebellion, and those who joined in it in arms, are taken up; all privates, and those who acted as non-commissioned officers, who deliver up their arms, and take and subscribe the oath of allegiance, are liberated. Others, who have been aggravatedly guilty in spreading sedition, and those who have acted as commissioned officers, are committed for trial by the laws of their country. Many of the principal leaders and abettors have fled into other States; but, from the assurances government has had from such States as it has applied to, we learn, that they will not have any protection granted them, but be delivered up to the authority of this State. Shays and some others, it is supposed, are making their way to Canada; his wife and children passed through Northampton last week, on their way to Bennington, escorted by a brother-in-law of Shays's.—Provision is made for paying the army who have been in service for a month past, also for that now raising. The General Court has passed the disqualifying act, and the Governor, agreeably thereto, has published a proclamation, setting the time for all those who intend to benefit themselves by the proffered mercy conformably thereto, to come in and accept of it.
N E W - Y O R K, MARCH 2.
By the Albany Gazette of the 22d ult. we learn, that a gentleman had arrived in the city of Albany from Washington, who informed—that a certain DANIEL SHAYS, with several others, ringleaders of the Massachusetts insurgents , having escaped from justice, had intruded themselves into that county, under the specious pretext of seeking shelter from vengeance; but, more probably, with an intention to disseminate their seditious sentiments among the thoughtless and unwary, hoping thereby to secure an interest, which might enable them to renew hereafter their treasonable attempts on the constitution.
No official information of the arrival of these unwelcome guests came to the authority, yet the popular rumour was attended with an appearance of truth, which induced the friends of government to consider it as a matter of public concern, and worthy of immediate attention.
A correspondent has favoured us with the following circumstance, which occurred in the county of Hampshire the week before last, and which may be depended on as fact.—As one Col. Robinson and a Mr. Phelps, (a Justice of the Peace) of Granville, were transporting some government stores to Gen. Shepard, at Springfield, they were flopt at West-Springfield by a party of twenty men belonging to that town (four of whom were upwards of 60 years of age) who made prisoners of the two gentlemen, and immediately conducted them to the school-house, and posted themselves as a guard for their better security. The guard, particularly the old men, being neighbours to the two gentlemen, began freely to expatiate upon the motives which excited them to appear in characters so different. Col. Robinson then addressed them in a very pathetic manner—He gave then a thorough insight into government, told them the expenses we must be at as a people at the close of so long and expensive a war as the one we have just emerged from, the attention which was paid to public grievances by the General Court at their last session—the consequences of seeking a redress in a hostile manner—and, finally, so far convinced them of the impropriety of their conduct, that the old men confessed their error, and begged that the oath of allegiance might be administered to them; which was immediately admitted, and their example followed by the rest of the guard. After which they all marched across the river to Springfield, and joined the State's troops under the command of Gen. Shepard." Gazetteer.
The following animated portrait of General Washington is just published by the masterly hand of the Marquis De Chastellux, in his travels in 1782, in North America, where he served as a General Officer during the late war.
After arriving at Hudson's river, the Marquis proceeds to General Washington's Head-Quarters near Totowhaw Fall, where he was introduced to the American Cincinnatus, whom he describes in the following words:
"Here would be the proper place to give the portrait of General Washington; but what can my testimony add to the idea already formed of him? The continent of North-America, from Boston to Charleston, is a great volume, every page of which presents his eulogium. I know, that having had an opportunity of a near inspection, and of closely observing him, some more particular details may be expected from me; but the strongest characteristic of this respectable man is the perfect union which reigns between the physical and moral qualities which compose the individual; one alone will enable you to judge of all the rest. If you are presented with medals of Cæsar, of Trajan, or Alexander, on examining their features, you will still be led to ask what was their figure, and the form of their persons; but if you discover, in a heap of ruins, the head or the limb of the antique Apollo, be not curious about the other parts, but rest assured that they all were conformable to those of the God."
"Let not this comparison be attributed to enthusiasm! It is not my intention to exaggerate; I wish only to express the impression General Washington has left on my mind, the idea of a perfect whole, that cannot be the produce of enthusiasm, which rather would reject it, since the effect of proportion is to diminish the idea of greatness."

"Brave without temerity—laborious without ambition—generous without prodigality—noble without pride—virtuous without severity:—He seems always to have confined himself within these limits, where the virtues, by clothing themselves in more lively, but more changeable and doubtful colours, may be mistaken for faults. This is the seventh year that he has commanded the army, and that he has obeyed the Congress: More need not be said, especially in America, where they know how to appreciate all the merit contained in this simple fact. Let it be repeated that Conde was intrepid, Turenne prudent, Eugene ardoit, and Catinat disinterested. It is not thus that Washington will be characterised. It will be said of him, at the end of a long civil war, he had nothing with which he could reproach himself. If any thing can be more marvellous than such a character, it is the unanimity of the public suffrages in his favour. Soldier, magistrate, all love and admire him; all speak of him in terms of veneration. Does there then exist a virtue capable of restraining the injustice of mankind; or, are glory and happiness too recently established in America for envy to have designed to pass the seas?"
"In speaking of this perfect whole of which General Washington furnishes the idea, I have not excluded exterior form. His stature is noble and lofty; he is well made, and exactly proportioned; his physiognomy mild and agreeable, but such as renders it impossible to speak particularly of any of his features, so that in questioning him, you have only the recollection of a fine face. He has neither a grave nor a familiar air; his bow is sometimes marked with thought, but never with inquietude. Inspiring respect he inspires confidence, and his smile is always the smile of benevolence."
At the opening of the Court of Common Pleas & General Sessions of the Peace at Salem, on Tuesday the 21st ult. Judge Webster addressed the Grand Inquest in a spirited charge, from which the following paragraphs are extracted: "Suffer me yet again to impress it on your minds, that on a due and regular administration of justice, your lives, your liberties, and your all depend.—To be convinced of this, we need only advert to the melancholy situation of a neighbouring State, where a mistaken multitude have arisen against government in a hostile manner, and pointed their impious arms against the Courts of Justice—see now the unhappy wretches, obliged to flee their native soil, their houses, their goodly possessions, which their crimes have justly forfeited—Others, who remain at their homes, are nevertheless, exposed to all the miseries of public confusion—A wife and perhaps a family of small children, suffering the extremes of cold and hunger—turned out of doors in an inclement season, to make room for men armed to the battle." Nor are these the only evils attendant on political convulsions, foreign enemies may take the advantage of the confusion, and by siding with one part of the contenders, make an easy conquest of the whole. The distressing scenes which would follow such an event, I leave for your fancy to paint—humanity recoils at the idea!
"I thank God that we are still free from this distressing evil. I pray we may long continue so. But the means to secure this blessing is to be virtuous, to be loyal and vigilant; if therefore, any person or persons, whom treason and rebellious practices have rendered dangerous to civil society, may have presumed to intrude themselves into this country, I charge you to exert your endeavours to bring such characters to light, that they may be punished according to their demerits, and that the peaceable citizen may remain in safety."
The Grand Jury, though they received no particular complaint during their sitting, thought themselves bound in duty to represent to the Court, "That whereas reports were prevailing that certain rebellious persons, late subjects of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, were lurking in various parts of the county, and as there was great reason to apprehend they would endeavor to spread their rebellious and seditious principles, and to poison the minds of the people and alienate their affections from government:"
They, therefore, begged leave, warmly to recommend to the Magistracy, to adopt immediately all prudent and energetic measures, to ward off the threatening danger and secure the tranquility of the public.
In consequence of this representation, the following order was published in open Court:
By the Honorable the Judges and Justices of the Inferior Court of Common Pleas and General Sessions of the Peace, of the county of Washington.
Order. Whereas undoubted information has been given to this Court in the present term, as well from a representation of the Grand Inquest of the people for the body of this county, as from others, that certain dangerous and evil-minded persons, late subjects of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, and now or late in actual rebellion against the government of the said State, having fled from the pursuit of justice, are now lurking in various parts of this county. And whereas, it is much to be suspected that these persons will endeavour to disseminate their rebellious, traitorous and seditious sentiments among us, exciting the now peaceable citizen to rebellion and disaffection to government. And whereas, it is our indispensable duty, as much as in us lies, in our respective offices and stations, to promote the good order and tranquility of every State in the confederacy, especially of those with whose interests, by reason of their vicinity, we are more immediately connected.
It is therefore strictly enjoined and warmly recommended to all officers, both civil and military, in this county, that they use every lawful exertion in apprehending and securing the persons of all such seditious and rebellious characters, and their abettors, and in preserving the peace of God and the people throughout their jurisdiction. That they duly notice all persons who presume to publish or declare sentiments derogatory to the dignity of government, tending to inflame the minds of the people, and excite them to sedition.
And it is further particularly recommended to the commanders of regiments of militia, within the jurisdiction aforesaid, that they be assisting with their forces, the civil arm, in case of any insurrection in this county, or foreign invasion on the same, in such manner as directed by the constitution, and the laws and usages of this State.
And lastly, it is enjoined on the sheriff, that he cause this order to be proclaimed in open court tomorrow morning; that the clerk forthwith
transmit copies of the same to the magistrates of the several townships in this county.
Done at Salem, the fifteenth day of February, in the eleventh year of the sovereignty and independence of the United States of America.
By the court, M C REA. The gentlemen of the court and bar seemed anxious to improve every occasion to express their affection to our excellent constitution, and to inculcate a spirit of good order and submission to government.
A N E C D O T E. A QUAKER, that was a barber, being sued by a Parson for tithes; Yea and Nay went to him, and demanded the reason why he troubled him, seeing he had never any dealings with him in his whole life; Why, says the Parson, it is for tithes; says the Quaker, I prithee, friend, upon what account? Why, says the Parson, for preaching in the church. Alas! then, replied the Quaker, I have nothing to do with paying thee; for I come not there. Oh, but you might, says the Parson, for the doors are always open at convenient times, and thereupon told him he would be paid, seeing it was his due. Yea and Nay hereupon shook his ears, and making several wry faces, departed, and immediately entered his action (it being a corporation town) against the Parson for forty shillings. The Parson, upon notice of this, came to him, and very hotly demanded, Why he put such a disgrace upon him? and for what did he owe him the money? Truly, friend, replied the Quaker, for trimming. For trimming, said the Parson; Why, I never was trimm'd by you in my life: Oh! but thou might'st have come and been trimm'd if thou had'st been pleased, for my doors are always open at convenient times as well as thine.
