ON Monday the first day of September next at 8 o'clock in the evening, at the Coffee House in the city of Philadelphia, will be sold by public vendue, two tracts or pieces of land situated in White Clay Creek hundred, New Castle county and State of Delaware; one of which contains about sixty acres of highly improved land, on it are a large two story brick dwelling house, a convenient brick barn, with stabling and a carriage house underneath, an excellent kiln for drying corn; and the well known mills called Christiana Mills (late Patterson's) which being at the head of the tide on Christiana river, and but about half a mile from the landing, is conveniently situated for carrying the articles manufactured at the mills by water to Philadelphia—This property being close to the road leading from Elkton to Christiana bridge, and at the head of the tide, with many other attendant advantages, renders its situation for the milling business to very valuable, as to be equalled by few and excelled by none. The latter tract containing 175 acres, is about one mile from the mills and is chiefly woodland, which being contiguous to water carriage to the city of Philadelphia, must be of increasing value, especially as there is a quantity of large timber in said tract suitable for the purposes of the mills. The terms upon which the above mentioned estates will be sold are—one thousand pounds to be paid on executing the deeds, and seven hundred and fifty pounds per annum, with interest for the remainder or proportionably for each part. Indispensible titles will be made for the property, by

ADVERTISEMENT. LETTERS on the subject of the Washington Lottery, being by mistake repeatedly addressed to the Commissioners for the City of Washington. Persons concerned are hereby informed, that all such should be addressed either to W. Deakins jun. of Washington, or to the Subscriber.

To the hon. James Iredell, Esq. one of the Judges of the Federal Court.
The ADDRESS of the Grand Jury of the Federal Court for the Circuit of North-Carolina, held at the city of Raleigh on the 2d day of June, 1794.
We the Jury aforesaid, impressed with a lively sense of the exemplary pains which you have taken in your charge to point out to us our duty, as Grand Jurors of this court; consider ourselves bound in gratitude to return you our sincere and ardent thanks. The strong and lively colours in which you have painted our situation with the belliger- ent powers, and the advantages we de- rive from a state of neutrality, must con- vey conviction to the mind of every per- son who wishes the welfare of his coun- try.
We are happy to observe that the President's Proclamation has met with the general approbation of the citizens of this state; had it not been consonant with the general opinion, we are apt to believe some part of the attention of this court would have been occupied in trials of that description.
As your charge was particularly ad- dressed to us, and but a few of the in- habitants were present, we request it as a favor that you would grant us a copy thereof with permission to have it pub- lished; that the comprehensive view which you have taken on the subject may be generally disseminated.
That you may enjoy a long succession of years, with the blessings of health and prosperity added thereto, are the sincere wishes of this Jury.
Signed for the whole, AMBROSE RAMSAY, Foreman.
ANSWER.
TO AMBROSE RAMSAY, Esq.
Wake Court-House, June 5. SIR,
The business of the court put it out of my power, before the Grand Jury had dispersed, to express in the manner I wished, the high sense I entertain of the great honor of their address. Their approbation of my sentiments on so in- teresting a subject, accompanied with the pleasing information they convey, is the more agreeable to me as it convinces me of what I had before every reason to believe; that whatever may be the sen- timents of a few individuals, the great body of the citizens of this state consi- der the peace and reputation of their country of no common value, and that it is their indispensable duty to obey the constitutional authorities, which they as well as the citizens of the other states have concurred in establishing; authorities formed on the strongest basis of freedom, and calculated without the slightest distinction for the equal secu- rity and happiness of all.
Whatever may be our future fate ei- ther as to peace or war, such a disposi- tion can alone preserve us a united peo- ple, give dignity and energy to our go- vernment, maintain the character of a respected nation, and convince the world that the same sense of duty which dictat- ed the preservation of peace, when peace was the object of our common counsels, will equally lead to a vigorous support of any war into which the aggressions of any other nation may force us.
You will oblige me in communicating this letter as you have opportunity, to the several gentlemen who composed the Grand Jury, assuring them at the same time that I shall retain through life the most grateful sense of their personal kindness, and that I reciprocate in the warmest manner the same wishes for their health and prosperity, as they are so good as to express for mine.
Such, Sir, I shall ever entertain for yourself personally, Being, with great regard, Your faithful and Obedient servant JA. IREDELL.
The charge delivered in the Circuit Court of North-Carolina, referred to in the above address, is substantially the same, which was delivered by the same Judge in the Circuit Court of South- Carolina, and which has already appear- ed in this paper.

LONDON, April 7. THE AGE OF REASON, Being an investigation of true and fabu- lous Theology—By Thomas Paine.
This production displays in full force all the qualities that characterize Mr. Paine's other writings, and proves that his mind is neither impaired nor embar- rassed by the events passing around him, or by what he himself may have suffer- ed. As few of our readers will have an opportunity of seeing the work itself, we insert
MR. PAINE'S CREED. "As several of my colleagues, and others of my fellow-citizens of France, have given me the example of making their voluntary and individual profession of faith, I also will make mine; and I do this with all the sincerity and frank- ness with which the mind of man com- municates with itself.
"I believe in one God, and no more; and I hope for happiness beyond this life.
"I believe the equality of man, and I believe that religious duties consist in doing justice, loving mercy, and endeav- oring to make our fellow-creatures happy.
"I do not believe in the Creed pro- fessed by the Jewish church, by the Roman church, by the Greek church, by the Turkish church, by the Protest- ant church, nor by any church that I know of. My own mind is my own church.
"All national institutions of church- es, whether Jewish, Christian, or Turk- ish, appear to me no other than human inventions set up to terrify and enslave mankind, and to monopolize power and profit.
"I do not mean by this declaration to condemn those who believe otherwise. They have the same right to their belief as I have to mine. But it is necessary to the happiness of man, that he be mentally faithful to himself. Infidelity does not consist in believing, or in disbelieve- ing: It consists in professing to believe what he does not believe."
STATE PAPER.
WARSAW, April 5, 1794.
OFFICIAL NOTE.
BERMUDA, June 20.
The French fleet and troops which arrived in the West Indies came too late to relieve their islands—but had they been a few days longer on their passage Sir J. Jervis must have been failed for England with some of the largest ships, and every thing must have favored them. However, there is every reason to believe, that all the force sent by the French regicides will be captured, as the British forces in that quarter are thought suf- ficient for that purpose.
UNITED STATES.
HALIFAX, (N.C.) June 25.
A North-Carolina correspondent ob- serves, that certain intemperate speech- es and publications are calculated to im- press strangers with a belief, that the government of the United States ex- hibits no characteristic but venality and cowardice, and if any vestige of repub- licanism remains on this side the Atlan- tic, it is only to be found among the discontented members of a few popular societies. Even that tried Republican, our illustrious Chief Magistrate, is stig- matized with the most scurrilous epithets, because he will not, according to the custom of Kings, rashly recommend a declaration of war.
In the opinion of some of the restless leaders of this party, to be moderate, is to be corrupt—to be a friend to peace, is to favor Britain—and to differ from them in sentiment, is to be an Aristocrat. As if moderation was not one of the cardinal virtues of a statesman—as if peace was not the distinguishing feature of a wise government—as if to differ in opinion was not the privilege of freemen, and the lot of mortals.
The nation whose government ceases to act temperately is lost; it is by the calm comparison of discordant opinions that the truth is discovered, and public decisions cannot fail to be consonant to public interest in an enlightened country like this, when passion hath not usurped the place of reason. In this view, the forbearance of Congress on some late oc- casions cannot be too much commended, the virtue of the Executive in determin- ing to send an Envoy-Extraordinary to demand explanations, contravenes the wisdom of a Republic with rashness of a Monarchy—and the fate of the non-im- portation act in the Senate, proves the unquestionable advantage of two branch- es to the legislature. It has even been alledged by some
who could suffer themselves to be delu- ded by so culpable an example. "The undersigned, commander in chief and minister plenipotentiary of her Majesty the Empress of all the Rus- sias, fully sensible of the urgency, and of the salutary effects which the steady and resolute conduct of the government will produce in this emergency, has the honor to request for this purpose the King and his Council to accelerate the period of the convention of the Diet, and of all the other Tribunals whose province is to take cognizance of simi- lar crimes, to summon those rebels who were not ashamed of affixing their names to that writing, to denounce before that tribunal not only that writing, but also all other writings of such a nature, which have already copiously appeared to consign them to public contempt, and to pronounce by law, the sentence upon this instrument of rebellion, upon the authors and distributors of those writings, and likewise upon all those persons directly or indirectly concerned therein, that they may suffer the severest punishment both in person and proper- ty; and that fresh orders be given to all the tribunals, to double their vigilance, to detect the secret authors and promo- ters of those partisans of revolution, and to deliver them up to justice in the same manner."
"While the undersigned recalls to re- membrance the well-known and incessant solitude of her Imperial Majesty, his most sublime sovereign, for the peace and tranquillity of Poland, he reiterates at the same time the offer which he so repeatedly made, of co-operating by all the means in his power, to secure justice, and the power and execution of the laws."
"Rebels, whose mad fury might pro- voke rage, but only inspire pity, espe- cially since it is known that they are de- prived of all the means of accomplishing their rebellion, have it not in their power to give offence. The motives which occasioned the request of the undersigned, have also no other tendency but to secure to Poland that state of tranquili- ty which it stands so much in need of, and which is the only resource which can preserve its existence."
(Signed) BARON VON IGELSTROEM.
WARSAW, April 5, 1794.
The man who under the mask of re- publicanism, recommends war, should be suspected as an incendiary who assem- bles a mob under pretext of redressing public grievances, and leaves the delud- ed multitude exposed to the vengeance of the law, while he slips off with the plunder and pillage of the neighbour- ing houses.
If the British court, upon the de- mand of Mr. Jay, should be so unwise as to refuse compensation, it is to be pre- sumed that our government will do what is proper to maintain American rights, and vindicate American honor, in which all good citizens will co- incide, even should arms be the alternative— but the designing ones, dreading the pa- cific and virtuous dispositions of our Executive, have taught many well-mean- ing people to believe, that this is the time to compel a surrender of the West- ern Posts, and enforce a complete ex- ecution of the treaty of 1783.
An opinion—specious, but not solid, against which the public attention is in- vited to a few obvious objections:
1st. Our title to the Western Posts, rests upon the clear and indisputable terms of a written instrument, ratified by the supreme authority of both na- tions, and therefore ought to be kept unconnected with the French revolution, or any other European question.

The British King being allied to the enemies of France by treaties of- fensive and defensive, an attack, at this crisis, upon the territory which he claims even unjustly, would be construed by the combination into an attack upon the whole—therefore the present is the most favorable time for Britain, and the most unfavorable for the United States, to bring the contest to an issue.
3d. The British King is now armed against France, his Minister commands a decided majority in the present Par- liament, he can make no figure on the European theatre, and while thus pre- pared would be the less reluctant to bend his whole land and naval force a- gainst the United States. A diversion which might be favourable to French liberty, but fatal to American prosperi- ty.
4th. This dispute has existed for the space of ten years without open hostili- ty, to declare against Britain now, on that account alone, would enable George III. to say to her Parliament, "The Americans have commenced this war not on their own account, but to aid the French—you cannot therefore hesitate to continue the necessary supplies."
5th. Venal as the British House of Commons may be, it is not supposable that they would, in times of European tranquility, after the termination of the present disgraceful war, enable the King to prosecute a new one equally expen- sive, rather than execute a fair treaty which he himself had freely made.
6th. In proportion as our new settle- ments extend, we are brought nearer to the posts which must constitute the scenes of military action; supplies and information for armies acting on that theatre will be at hand, the Indians will disappear, and finally the posts will be ours—without a struggle.
If these considerations are entitled to weight—if we have already wasted four years and five millions of dollars, to be twice defeated by the Sans-Culottes of the wilderness—if it required the con- tinued exertions of the British govern- ment, aided by her then colonies the United States, for seven years, from 1755 to 1762, with the advantage of a powerful fleet, to obtain the undisturbed possession of that country—if a con-

best for these posts, with all their acquisitions of strength from that time to this, will now cost our infant republic 50 millions of dollars more than they were ever worth—if the same object can be obtained sooner by peace than war—if seven years of uninterrupted prosperity will certainly bestow us these possessions without the loss of a man or a dollar—if we are growing in wealth and in numbers beyond all calculation—if war is the natural enemy of liberty, of arts, of industry, of morality—surely the present is not the most proper time to insist on a surrender of these posts, and surely the cool and steady friends of peace are the best Republicans, and the firmest friends of the United States.
PHILADELPHIA, JULY 7.
Extract of a letter from a gentleman in Bourdeaux, to his friend in this city.
"The Spaniards have been completely routed in the south, and the victorious French are entering Spain. Meaul, Furnes, and Courtray are taken in the north. The La Vendee insurgents are defeated, and brilliant successes are announced from all quarters."
"A proclamation of the Representatives of the People in this Department, grounded on three different arrests of the committee of Public Safety will explain to you in some degree, the footing on which trade is to be carried on in future—I have not time to observe on the different points, but the object of it is, to insure the certain supply of articles of the first necessity to this country, by confining the exportation of their own valuable commodities to those who enter into engagements under security to import an equal value of necessary articles."
The 18th anniversary of American Liberty, was celebrated by the Democratic Society, with other patriotic citizens, at Dally's hotel last Friday—where, after a handsome repast, during which conviviality and mirth prevailed, the following sentiments were drank, amidst the loudest applause.
 1. The DAY—may the birth of our liberty be the only jubilee in the American calendar.  2. The patriotic band who broke the fetters of tyranny by the declaration of Independence; May they be honored as the apostles of liberty, who have proclaimed glad tidings to the universe.  3. The champions of liberty, the officers and soldiers of the late American army; May they ever live in the remembrance of those who enjoy the fruits of their ill-requited services.  4. The representatives of the people, May they never forget the source of their power and the end of their appointment.  5. Our allies and brethren, the Sans Culottes of France; May the temple of liberty which they are erecting have the whole earth for its area, and the arch of Heaven for its dome.  6. The patriots of Poland; May their oppressors be led in chains by them, and their future government be of their own choice.  7. The late victims of British tyranny; may they receive consolation in reflecting, that their sufferings accelerate the regeneration of their country.  8. Economy and simplicity; may the agents of freemen be known by their patriotism and virtue, and not by the flavor of their wines, the delicacy of their viands, or the sumptuousness of their equipages.  9. Governmental secrecy; may it be banished the land of freedom, and be hereafter known only to a conclave or a court.  10. Excise; may this baneful exotic wither in the soil of freedom.  11. Public debt; may it be considered as the Charybdis of republicanism and the Scylla of virtue.  12. The sovereignty of states; may it be guarded with the eye of jealousy, and maintained with republican firmness.  13. Agriculture; may the interests of our western brethren never be sacrificed for the aggrandizement of a mercantile junto.  14. Commerce; May the American Flag scorn a British passport, and assert its rights under the law of nations.  15. Manufacturers; May they speedily render us independent of a nation, once the open, now our covert enemy. 
VOLUNTEERS.
 1. The Jacobin Clubs of America; May our citizens be impressed with this truth, that vigilance is the only preservative of Freedom, and that implicit confidence in public servants is a stride towards slavery.  2. The army and navy of the French Republic; While they are contending in the cause of universal liberty, may 
the laurel of victory adorn their brows, and the cowardice of guilt confound their opponents.
3. Ruin to the combined despots; May their efforts to stifle the flame of liberty in France, serve only to kindle it in their own dominions.
From the New-York Daily Gazette, July 4.
This day presents us with the return of another anniversary of our political epocha—the American Jubilee. A day which every son of freedom ought to dedicate to harmless joy, mirth, festivity and gratitude. It is the most memorable event that can possibly be celebrated by freemen, and a reverence for it ought to be indelibly impressed upon every being capable of comprehending the true interests and dignities which belong to human nature. From that period we date the origin of the greatest national and individual blessings, that were ever realized by nations or individuals.
Its salutary effects have proved no less extraordinary and wonderful, than its original design was bold and astonishing—they have far outrun the hopes and expectations of the most sanguine.—That sacred principle, which prompted our fathers to attempt so noble an enterprize, could only have emanated from the fountain of all justice,—and it did not return without accomplishing the object of its mission. We are now in the full enjoyment of every blessing which could possibly have been contemplated, and even more than probably had "entered the heart of man to conceive." Then let us be mindful of them, and return the most grateful thanks to the beneficent bestower. Let the hand of industry be suspended; and while the soul is alive to a just sense of the dignified principles which it commemorates, let it blend with gratitude the most innocent amusements, and greet with rapture the birth day of FREEDOM.

BOSTON July 1.
The Proclamation of his excellency the Governor, and the spirited exertions of Justice Cooper, have, to the great joy of all lovers of peace and justice, suppressed the mob, that for several evenings paraded the town, and demolished those houses that they conceived, already tottering in fame. It was a dangerous and destructive precedent, and a poor remedy for the evil complained of.
Yesterday an express arrived in town from New-York, with dispatches from London for the British minister, brought by the May Packet, arrived at Halifax—we hear the Packet had only 23 days passage from England. Newspaper accounts by her are however, only to the 6th May. Whether the foreign letters for private persons were received at New-York is uncertain, as none came by the mail of this day.
This forenoon arrived here from the southward by land, PIONINGO, or the Mountain Leader, and a number of other Warriors of the Chickasaw Nation.
An entertainment in honor of that day, on which the United States of America became Free and Independent, was celebrated in the most convivial and harmonious manner by the Pennsylvania Cincinnati Society at Richardett's hotel. After an elegant dinner the following patriotic toasts were drank:
 1. The DAY—the glorious era of our Independence.  2. The United States of America.  3. The Republic of France.  4. The Nations in alliance and amity with the United States.  5. The President of the United States.  6. May the sacred cause of Liberty, unfullied by anarchy, be ever triumphant over despotism.  7. The memory of those Heroes, who fell in establishing our freedom and independence.  8. Kosciutko, and the brave Poles who have risen to recover the liberties of their country. Success to their glorious efforts.  9. Universal liberty. Religious civil and political.  10. May the pure spirit, which gave birth to this auspicious day, never degenerate.  11. Peace and brotherly love, among all the nations of the earth.  12. May justice and wisdom characterize our laws, and skill and integrity our public Servants.  13. The Agricultural Mechanic and Commercial arts.  14. The Liberty of the Press—May it be unrestrained by power, and unpolluted by licentiousness.  15. The fair Daughters of Columbia—May they ever be protected and cherished.

TERMS.
1. This work will be comprised in two volumes. 2. Subscribers pay for the present volume on delivery, six dollars, and the price of binding, (50 cents for boards). 3. They may receive the succeeding volume in twenty-four weekly numbers, at a quarter dollar each, or else, when finished, at the same price as the first. 4. The subscription will be raised on the first day of June 1794, to fourteen dollars, exclusive of binding. 5. Should any copies remain for sale after the completion of the work, they will be sold at sixteen dollars, and the price of binding. 6. The names of the subscribers will be published as patrons of American literature, arts, and sciences. It is wholly unnecessary to expatiate on the advantage to American readers, that this edition possesses, over every imported edition of any system of Geography extant. The addition of maps of the several states, procured a very great expense, and from the best materials that are attainable, speaks such full conviction on this subject, that it would be disrespectful to the reader's understanding to suppose it requisite to enter into a detail of arguments to prove its superiority. In no similar work have such maps been introduced.
The emendations and additions which are made in this work, are innumerable, and occur in every page. The public are referred to the preface for a slight sketch of a few of them.
The publisher takes the present opportunity of returning his most sincere thanks to those respectable characters who have favored him, with documents for improving the maps of several of the states. He
requests a continuance of their kindness, and hopes that such public-spirited citizens, as are possessed of similar documents, will favor him with their assistance in perfecting his undertaking.
The extraordinary encouragement with which he has been favored, has excited in his breast the warmest sentiments of gratitude—sentiments which time will not efface. He pledges himself to the citizens of the United States, to spare neither pains nor expense to render the present edition of Guthrie's Geography improved, deserving of their patronage. waiff

By Mrs. ROWSON, of the New Theatre, Philadelphia, Author of Victoria, the Inquisitor, the Fille de Chambre, &c. Of Charlotte, the Reviewers have given the following character.
It may be a Tale of Truth, for it is not unnatural, and it is a tale of real distress. Charlotte, by the artifice of a teacher, recommended to a school, from humanity rather than a conviction of her integrity, or the regularity of her former conduct, is enticed from her governess, and accompanied a young officer to America. The marriage ceremony, if not forgotten, is postponed, and Charlotte dies a martyr to the inconstancy of the over, and treachery of his friend. The situations are artless and affecting; the descriptions natural and pathetic; we should feel for Charlotte if such a person ever existed, who for one error scarcely, perhaps, deserved so severe a punishment. If it is a fiction, poetic justice is not, we think, properly distributed.

The new maps added to this edition are twenty one; among which are those of New-Hampshire, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode-Island, Vermont, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, Kentucky, North Carolina, the Genesee Government, South Carolina, and Georgia. These maps have never been given in any former system of Geography, and, it is hoped, would alone be sufficient to entitle this work to a preference to any other edition of Guthrie.
N. B. The map of the United States, which is compiling by Mr. Samuel Lewis, from the respective state maps, will be far more complete than any one yet published, and be printed on two large sheets of paper, nearly the size of the late Mr. Murray's map.

Richard Johns } In the Chancery Court of the John Wells and } State of Maryland, Mordecai Cole. } May 26th 1794.
The Complainant hath filed
his bill, for the purpose of obtaining a decree, to vest in him a complete legal title to two tracts of land, lying in Baltimore county, one called Painters-Level, containing 100 acres, the other called Prospect containing 1350 acres. He states, that the said John Wells on the 16th day of March 1774 contracted to sell the said land to the said Mordecai Cole, & executed to him a bond for conveyance, that the said Cole, on the same day, executed to the said Wells a bond for the payment of the purchase money amounting to £1075 Pennsylvania currency, that the said Cole hath since discharged the whole of the purchase money, and hath assigned to the complainant the said bond for conveyance; that the said Wells hath never executed a deed, agreeably to his contract but hath removed out of the state of Maryland, and now resides in the state of Kentucky.
It is thereupon, and at the request of the complainant, adjudged, and ordered, that he procure a copy of this order to be inserted at least six weeks successively, before the first day of August next, in the United States Gazette at Philadelphia, to the intent, that the said John Wells may have notice of the complainant's application to this court, and may be warned to appear here, on or before the first Tuesday in October next, to show cause wherefore this court should not proceed to decree, agreeably to the prayer of the complainant, and to the act of assembly, for such cases made and provided.

JOHN ORMROD, At Franklin's Head, No. 41, Chestnut Street, AN ESSAY ON THE  Natural Equality of Men, On the Rights that result from it, and on the Duties which it imposes.
To which a MEDAL was adjudged, by the Teylerian Society at Haarlem. Corrected and Enlarged, by WILLIAM LAWRENCE BROWN, D. D.
Professor of Moral Philosophy, and the Law of Nature, and of Ecclesiastical History; and Minister of the English Church at Utrecht. Aliquid semper ad communem utilitatem afferendum. Cicero.
The First American Edition.
THE grand principle of Equality, if rightly understood, is the only basis on which universal justice, sacred order, and perfect freedom, can be firmly built, and permanently secured. The view of it exhibited in this essay, at the same time that it represses the influence of office, the tyranny of pride, and the outrages of oppression; confirms, in the most forcible manner, the necessity of subordination, and the just demands of lawful authority. So far indeed, from loosening the bands of society, that it maintains inviolate, every natural and every civil distinction, draws more closely every social tie, unites in one harmonious and justly proportioned system, and brings men together on the even ground of the inherent rights of human nature, of reciprocal obligation, and of a common relation to the community.

The Public are cautioned to beware of counterfeited Five Dollar Bills of the Bank of the United States, and Twenty Dollar Bills of the Bank of North America, several of which have appeared in circulation within a few days past; they are good general imitation of the genuine Bills, but may be distinguished by the following
M A R K S.
Five Dollar Bills of the Bank of the United States.
ALL that have appeared have the letter F. for their Alphabetical Mark.
The Texture of the Paper is thicker and whiter and it takes the ink more freely than the genuine paper.
The O. in the word Company is smaller than the M. and other letters of that word, so that a line extended from the top of the O, to touch the top of the M. would extend considerably above the range of the whole word.
In the word United the letters are narrower and closer together than the rest of the bill.
The i and j in the word promise are not parallel, the j inclining much more forward than the i.
The engraving is badly executed, the strokes of all the Letters are stronger, and the device in the margin particularly is much coarser and appears darker than in the true bills. Some of the counterfeits bear date in 1791—Whereas the Bank was not in operation till December, and no five dollar bills were issued in that year.
Twenty Dollar Bills of the Bank of North America.
ALL that have appeared have the letter B. for their alphabetical mark.
They are printed on a paper nearly similar to that of the counterfeit Five Dollar Notes above described; the engraving is better executed, and they approach nearer to the appearance of the genuine bills.
The fine ruled lines through the word Twenty, in the body of the bill, are in number thirteen in the genuine bills, and but twelve in the counterfeits.
The word Company is much like the same word in the Five Dollar Bills as described above, the o being less than the m, and others following.
There is no stroke to the t in the word North whereas in the genuine bills the stroke is well defined.
The letters ent in the word Twenty, to the left hand at the bottom, do not come down to the line, but are so cut as to give an irregular appearance to the word, the Tw and the y going below them.
The signature J. Nixon, has the appearance of being written with lamb-black and oil, and differs from other inks used in printing the bills and the cashier's signature.
It is supposed these forgeries were committed in some of the Southern States, as all the counterfeits that have appeared, have come from thence, and two persons have been apprehended in Virginia, on suspicion of being the author of them.
The reward of ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS will be paid to any Person or Persons who shall discover and prosecute to conviction the several offenders of the following descriptions or any of them, viz.
The person or persons, who manufactured the paper on which the Bills are printed.
The person or persons, who engraved the plates.
The printer or printers, of the bills.
Every person who has acted as a principal in any other way, in the counterfeiting and uttering the said bills.
Philadelphia, March 28, 1794.
April 22, 1794.
Other counterfeit bills of the Bank of the United States have appeared in circulation.
The denomination is of TWENTY DOLLARS, and the alphabetical mark is the letter B.
They may be distinguished from the genuine by the following MARKS:
The paper of the counterfeits is of a more tender texture and glossy surface than the genuine, and there is no water mark in them.
The letter C. in the word Cashier, in the true bills is strongly marked, whereas in the counterfeits, the whole letter is a fine hair stroke, evidently in an unfinished state. The letter a in the word demand, is badly formed and the whole word ill done and there is no comma at the end of it, as there is in the genuine bills.
The marginal device, is much darker in the false, than in the genuine bills owing to the shade strokes being coarser, much nearer together, and consequently much more numerous. This difference strikes the eye at first view.
The same reward of ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS, will be paid for apprehending & prosecuting to conviction the several above described Offenders in respect to this, as to the last described bills.
THOMAS WILLING, President
of the Bank United States.
JOHN NIXON, President of the
Bank of North America.
By order of the Committee of the Representative Boards.
FOR SALE, BY MATHEW CAREY, No. 118, Market-Street,
An Essay on Slavery,
Designed to exhibit in a new point of view its effects on morals, industry, and the peace of society. Some facts and calculations are offered to prove the labor of freemen to be much more productive than that of slaves; that countries are rich, powerful, and happy, in proportion as the laboring people enjoy the fruits of their own labor; and he, the necessary conclusion, that slavery is impolitic as well as unjust.
