AUGUSTA, October 15.
Extract of a letter from the Secretary of War to His Excellency George Mathews, Esq. Governor of Georgia, dated War Office June 29, 1795.

For Indian Affairs in Georgia, shall after consulting your Excellency, fix at another place. The United States will take this occasion to investigate all the causes of hostility on the part of the Creeks, which have produced so much mischief on the Frontiers, since the Treaty of New-York; and endeavour to remove them, and to make a firm peace. This, notwithstanding the more than usual pacific disposition of the Creeks, is an object of such importance, as to warrant the incurring some expense on the part of the General Government, which will therefore cause the provisions necessary for the Indians at the Treaty to be supplied in the first instance, wholly at the expense of the United States; but with the expectation that the State of Georgia, at whose special request the Treaty is called, and without which it would not be held, will reimburse to the United States, one half of the expense of those provisions; and a stipulation on the part of Georgia to that effect, will be a condition on which the Treaty will be held.
I have the honor to be,
With great respect,
Your Excellency's
Obedient servant,
TIMOTHY PICKERING.
His Excellency George Matthews Esq. Governor
of the State of Georgia.
A true copy from the files of the Executive,
Edward Watts, S. E. D.
State House, Augusta, 15th August, 1795.
SIR,
I HAD the pleasure of receiving your several
communications, of the 29th of June, and the 10th
of July.
I am happy that the President of the United
States has given his assent that a treaty may be
held with the Creek Nation of Indians; no grant
could have been more grateful to the citizens of
Georgia, and I flatter myself that the conduct of
the Commissioners of the State of Georgia, will con-
vince the President that they have as perfect a re-
gard to justice and fair contracts, as those gentle-
men who are appointed Commissioners by the United
States.
With regard to the number of citizens contem-
plated to attend the treaty, and which are not to
exceed fifty, at once induces me to suppose that you
have not fully viewed this matter; for I am fully
persuaded, that, more than that number of gentle-
men will attend from the States of North and South
Carolina; it's also presumable the citizens of Geor-
gia will have equal curiosity. And if the commis-
sioners on the part of the United States are to en-
quire into the murders and trespasses that have
been committed by the Indians since the treaty at
New-York, it may require more than the number
you mention to substantiate the facts. It is pre-
sumable with me, that all that the general govern-
ment has in view is to protect the Indians, and
prevent their being awed into a relinquishment of
their claims to the lands in question, and also se-
cured from injury or insult, this I feel the dignity
and reputation of the State bound to do, and no
means in my power shall be wanting to procure,
of which I have not the least doubt of being able
to give.
Attended at Savannah, when a general meeting
of the Creek chiefs took place, in consequence of
an invitation from Major Seagrave, Agent of the
United States, I took that opportunity to urge the
compliance of the treaty at New-York, particular-
ly the third article, which relates to the restoring
the property taken from the citizens of Georgia;
the Mad Dog, who is the principal man and mouth
of the Nation, informed me, in the presence of
Major Seagrave, that it was not in the power of
the Indians to comply with that article, and in my
presence requested the Agent of Indian Affairs to
inform the President of it, requesting that he might
point out some mode by which compensation may
be made, of which I presume the Agent has in-
formed you. May I be permitted to suggest to you
the propriety of giving the Commissioners of the
United States instructions on this head, an object
truly interesting to the citizens of Georgia.
With regard to your letter of the 10th ult. the
subject which you there treat of, I have received
no information which I can depend on, except what
I have from Major Seagrave, and as he is gone to
see the President, it's probable he will give him the
fullest information; from his account to me, some
of the citizens of Camden county have joined the
revolted people of Florida, and that the civil au-
thority in that county has not sufficient energy to
enforce the civil law against those imprudent peo-
ple, and in order to give the magistrates support and
preserve the United States from being committed
in this business of the Spaniards.
I shall order Capt. Fauche with a detachment of
his troops to that country, he being an officer in
whom I have perfect confidence.
I have been much embarrassed by not receiving
an answer to my letter, on the subject of captain
Fauche's troops, you may rest assured their service
is indispensably necessary.
The pay of the militia, a subject I have frequent-
ly touched on, is a matter truly interesting—per-
mit me again to request your attention to this
subject
I am, Sir,
With respect,
Your obedient humble servant,
(Signed) GEORGE MATTHEWS,
Secretary of War.

TUESDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 10, 1795
Extract of a letter from Baltimore, dated Sunday af-
ternoon November 8.
By a brig arrived this day from Gibraltar, we
have the pleasing intelligence of a peace being con-
cluded with the Algerines.—We are informed the
brigs the public dispatches respecting this event."
COMMUNICATION.
A writer in the Aurora of yesterday, is very de-
fectious that Congress should compliment the French
for electing for their Speaker, the man who
at a public dinner in this City, poured forth the
following benvolent and pious ejaculation by way
of toast—"The Mountain, its summit the
Heavens, its base the whole Earth." In order to
explain the true meaning of this charitable senti-
ment, it is necessary to observe, that the infernal
monsters who have filled France with crimes and
mourning assumed to themselves the cant name of
the Mountain, and it was in honour of these wor-
thies and their good works that the late Speaker
gave the toast above-mentioned. The period can-
not be far distant when the people of France will
rejoice to learn, that the atrocities of Robespierre
and his associates have never been well received by
the sober part of the Citizens of the United States
—And that the Jacobins in this Country who pro-
moted feasts for the purpose of drinking long live
the Mountain, or in other words, long live dictator
Robespierre, are like the Jacobins in France, most
cordially detested and despised.
CARD.
MR. RICKETTS respectfully informs the Ladies

Extracts of a letter from Halifax, dated October
21, 1795.
The Cartaret Packet arrived here on Sunday.
The London Gazette announcement of the Dutch
war; the vast reinforcements (25,000 men) in-
tended for the West-India service; the detention of
Spanish ships in the ports of Great-Britain—have
not much the appearance of an approaching
Peace. Lord Dorchester will be succeeded by
General Prescott, in the government of Canada.
A prize-ship from Amsterdam is now in this
harbour."
Late English Paragraphs.
Letters from Holland state, that the hatred,
distrust and rage, that prevail between the Batavian
patriots and the partisans of the house of Orange,
have risen to such a height, that if it was not for
the 25,000 Frenchmen taken by the Dutch govern-
ment into their pay; they would tear one another
to pieces in every part of the United Provinces.
The contending authorities are obliged to employ
all their wisdom and firmness, in order to prevent
these dreadful calamities.
The same letters that contain this intelligence,
mention also, that at last a division of the Dutch
fleet has sailed from the Texel, and that the latter
expects to be joined by some ships of war, which
are now in the mouth of the river Meuse; after
which junction this squadron is to give chase to the
English ships, which are infesting the coasts of Hol-
land.

ment on board the prison-ships in the river Med-
way.
On Sunday last arrived at Nantucket, the ship
Nancy, Captain Delano, in 44 days from London.
Captains Scott and Cunningham, for Boston,
failed ten days before the Nancy. We have not
been able to obtain any intelligence by this arri-
val.
The British armed brig, Earl Moira, Captain
Crosgill, arrived at Portland on Tuesday last from
Halifax. She landed a passenger, Capt. Moody,
of the Royal Nova-Scotia Regiment, and then
sailed again for Halifax. This vessel had not the
September mail on board, as was reported. It
will come by Captains Magray, Dowdle or Bow-
den, who have all been seven or eight days from
Halifax bound here.
FROM MALAGA.
By Capt. Trask from Malaga, we learn, that
information had been received there from Gibraltar
stating, that an insurrection had broke out in the
dominions of the Emperor of Morocco, and that
Muley Soloman had been driven from his capital
by his brother, commonly called the Black Prince.
In consequence, it was expected, that the treaty
lately renewed by Mr. Simpson with Muley would
not be considered binding on his brother, should he
prove victorious; and that our commerce would be
liable, from the circumstance, to interruption.—
As confirmatory proof of the intelligence, several
Venetian men of war, on a voyage to Morocco,
with presents for the Emperor, bearing of the in-
urrection, had deferred entering his ports. It was

This Lottery will afford an elegant specimen of the public buildings to be erected in the City of Washington. Two beautiful designs are already selected for the entire front on two of the public squares; from these drawings, it is proposed to erect two centre and four corner buildings, as soon as possible after this Lottery is held, and to convey them when completed, to the fortunate adventurers, in the manner described in the scheme for the Hotel Lottery. A net deduction of five per cent. will be made to defray the necessary expenses of printing, &c. and the surplus will be made a part of the fund intended for the National University, to be erected within the City of Washington.
The drawing will commence as soon as the Tickets are sold off. The money prizes will be payable in thirty days after it is finished, and any prizes for which fortunate numbers are not produced within twelve months after the drawing is closed are to be considered as given towards the fund for the University, it being determined to forego the whole business in a year from the ending of the drawing and to take up the bonds given as security.
The real securities given for the payment of the Prize are held by the President and two Directors of the Bank of Columbia, and are valued at more than half the amount of the Lottery.
The twenty-four gentlemen who by appointment of the late Commissioners assisted in the management of the Hotel Lottery are requested to undertake this arduous task a second time on behalf of the public; a sufficient number of these having kindly accepted, it is hoped that the friends to a National University and the other federal objects may continue to favor the design. The synopsis of one of the Colleges, to form a branch of the National Institution, is already in the press, and will be speedily published, together with its constitution.
A complete PLAN of the whole of this important institution, compiled from a selection of the best materials, ancient and modern, will be submitted to the public whenever the same may have gone through such revisions as may be necessary to establish the perfect confidence and general approbation, so essential to its present rise and future existence for the general good of America.
By accounts received from the different parts of the Continent as well as from Europe, where the tickets have been sent for sale, the public are assured that the drawing will speedily commence, and that the care and caution unavoidably necessary to insure a safe disposal of the tickets, has rendered the sum of 200,000 Dollars indispensable.

A very valuable ESTATE,
Called TWITTENHAM. SITUATE in the township of Upper Derby, and county of Delaware, 7 1-2 miles from Philadelphia, and half a mile from the new Western road; containing 230 acres of excellent Land, 45 of which are good watered Meadow, 90 of prime Wood Land, and the rest Arable of the first quality. There are on the premises a good two-story Brick House, with 8 rooms on a floor, and Cellars under the whole, with a Pump Well of excellent Water in front; a large frame Barn, Stables, and other convenient buildings; a Smoke-House and Bone Spring House; two good Apple-Orchards, and one of Peaches. The Fields are all in Clover, except those immediately under village, and are so laid out as to have the advantage of Water in each of them, which renders it peculiarly convenient for Grazing. The situation is pleasant and healthy, and from the high cultivation of the Land, the good neighborhood, and the vicinity to the city, it is very suitable for a Gentleman's Country Seat. The foregoing is part of the Estate of Jacob Harman, deceased and offered for sale by M c ORDECAI LEWIS, Surviving Executor. Oct. 9, 1795.
A MILL for SALE.
FOR Sale, on private contract, five undivided sixths parts of that valuable merchant-mill, called Old Pennypack Mill, with two dwelling houses, stables, cooper's shop, cake house, and other convenient buildings, with about 200 acres of good land, the greatest part thereof is excellent watered meadow, the remainder garden, orchard, and wood land; situate ten miles from Philadelphia, near the Washington Tavern, partly on the post-road leading to New-York, and partly on the River road; a remarkably healthy country, and an excellent neighbourhood. This mill being on Pennypack creek, a heavy stream of water, with about 15 feet head and fall, and the tide flowing about 6 feet, will admit a vessel carrying 1350 bushels of wheat to lay along side, and unload into the mill with Evans's elevator in about three hours. The mill house is large and built of stone, founded on a rock, the walls uncommonly thick and strong, (such a piece of mason work is rarely to be found) contains five floors, two water wheels, and wire pair of the best French burr stones all running, double geared, with three bolting reels and cloths of the first quality, rolling screen, cylinder, and fans for cleaning wheat in the best manner, and passing it afterwards by an elevator into a hanging gamet; also, conveyers, elevators, and hopper bay, all in complete order. There are two large frame buildings adjoining the mill, which are convenient for storing flour, shorts, cakes, &c. A corn-kiln is erected within the building, with bolting, reel, cloth, and other necessary fixtures for manufacturing larger quantities of kiln-dried corn meal. The stream of water is so constant that upwards of 60,000 bushels of wheat have frequently been manufactured at this mill, annually. The tumbling dam was built of stone and frame about 30 years ago, but the late extraordinary freshets have made a breach therein, it can easily be repaired altogether with stone, the greatest part of which is already at hand, and the remainder can be quarried near the dam, as there are several good quarries of excellent stone on the premises, and adjacent to the creek; the contiguity of this very valuable estate to Philadelphia, and the easy navigation for flatboats, with the above-mentioned great advantages, and many others not here mentioned, must be obvious to any person who may view the premises. An indisputable title, clear of all encumbrances, will be made to the purchaser on paying part of the money, and giving satisfactory security for the remainder, payable with interest in instalments at such times as may be agreed on. For further particulars enquire on the premises of FRANCES LEWIS, Executrix to the estate of Robert Lewis, deceased; JOHN SWIFT, near Buffalo-Town; or NATHANIEL LEWIS, or DAVID LEWIS, in Philadelphia. August 31.
Forty Dollars Reward.
RAN away from the subscriber, living at Mordington Mills, near Frederick, in Kent county, state of Delaware, on the night of the 27th of June last, a slave negro man named BENN, about 27 years old, 5 feet 10 or 11 inches high, of a yellow complexion, and might pass for a mulatto. The clothes he had on cannot, with exactness, be described, as he made several breaches of honesty, in that way, on his setting out. He is a very great lover in his dress; has naturally a condemned and lurly countenance, altho' he at times affects a smiling one; his village is thin, with large black whiskers; the whites of his eyes often red; it is not recollected whether he has any particular self-marks, except on his back, where may be seen (tho' light) the ro of the whip, placed by judicial authority, for house-breaking, lock-breaking, stealing, &c. as well before, as since I purchased him. He is possessed of but a small share of reason or sensibility; a great coward, tho' his looks are devilish, and at the same time sneaking. As he took his flight upwards from here, at the commencement of harvest, it is presumed he was persuaded by some of the free negroes in this quarter to make his escape with them should he not be in Philadelphia, he is probably between here and there. Whoever takes up the said negro Benn, and secures him in any public goal, so that his master may get him again, shall have the above reward; and if brought home additional charges for reasonable expenses, paid by James Douglass.

EXTRACT FROM THE CRITICAL REVIEW, APRIL 1791, p. 463. "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, if her former conduct, is entitled from her governess, and accompanies a young officer to America—the marriage ceremony, if not forgotten, is postponed, and Charlotte dies a martyr to the inconsistency at her lover and treachery of his friend." The situation are artless and affecting—the description natural and pathetic; we should feel for Charlotte if such a portion ever existed, who for one error, scarcely, perhaps deserved to receive a punishment. If it is a fiction, poetic justice is not, we think, properly distributed. 1. The Inquisitor—by Mrs. Rowson. Second Philadelphia edition. 87 1 2 cents. 2.
