THE DEFENCE. Unlike a plan of ancient governments, which consisted of a population of their cities...
Important political events arise and pass in quick succession, that we are liable to forget facts and opinions familiar to us in periods within the ordinary powers of recollection.
“We cheerfully consent to such acts of the British Parliament as shall be restrained to the regulations of our external commerce, for the purpose of securing the commercial advantages of the whole Empire to the mother country, and the commercial benefit of its respective members!”
Notwithstanding the intimate alliance, the family compact, between France and Spain, the former has not been able to procure admission into the Spanish colonial Territories where she might have acquired immense wealth by the sale of her manufactures, her wines, and her Brandies.
Great Britain though maintaining her exclusive Laws against other nations at different periods, has shown the strongest desire to share in the rich trade of Spain with her colonies.
The impediments, Great Britain has uniformly met in her attempts to extend her settlement in the Bay of Honduras, to form establishments at Paulka Island and more recently at Nootka Sound afford additional proofs of the fixed policy of Spain on the subject of her Colony Trade.
Portugal, whose political safety, more than once has appeared to depend on the efficacious aid of Great Britain does not yield to her ally any portion of her valuable Colonial Commerce.
So uniform and persevering has been the practice of nations on this point that in the latest treaties of Commerce between France and Spain, between Great Britain, Sweden, Denmark, Holland and Portugal, we do not discover, that any one of these powers, has consented to admit the others to a participation in the trade and navigation to their respective colonies.
include a permission to trade in the colonies; for these always continue in a state of prohibition.” [Montesquieu Liv. xxi. Chap. xxi.]
This subject is of too great importance not to be pursued a little further. Principles connected with it, and such as will continue to operate whether we sanction or condemn them, remain to be disclosed.
The situation of Great Britain in this respect is peculiar, when compared with several of the neighbouring powers, her numbers and military forces are manifestly inferior. The armies kept on foot in peace, as well as those brought into the field in war, by the great nations in Europe, are so decidedly superior to those of Great Britain, that were she a continental power, her rivals would easily be an overmatch for her.
It is then surprising, that we see her so anxious to encourage and extend her navigation, as to exclude as far as practicable, foreigners from any share of her fisheries, her coasting, and her colony trade?
America has her opinions, perhaps prejudices, on the subject of commerce: She is, and at least until she shall become a naval power will continue to be, without colonies. But her laws manifest a similar spirit with those of other nations, in the regulations which they prescribe for the protection of her fisheries and her coasting trade.
It cannot have escaped notice, that we have among us characters who are unwilling to see stated the impediments that stand in the way of the commercial arrangements, which they contend, should be conceded to us by foreign nations, and who should be ready to charge those who faithfully expose them, with an inclination to excuse or vindicate the unreasonable denials of our commercial rivals, and with a desire to yield up the just pretensions of our country.
The impediments, Great Britain has uniformly met in her attempts to extend her settlement in the Bay of Honduras, to form establishments at Paulka Island and more recently at Nootka Sound afford additional proofs of the fixed policy of Spain on the subject of her Colony Trade.
CAMILLUS. FOR THE DAILEE ADVERTIZUR. Mr. Editor—Sir, I WISH you wud print the following, verbatim et litteratum et punctuatum, in yure dailee advertizur—yu see i understand latine, which I hope you will recommend my first attempt to speer in print.
To Mr. LAMIN, a SQUIRE. Sur, I am verre much grieved to find yu jarring the Calf Obsarvur, and scoldin so at Mr. Wulcutt and the Presydent, as I think there has ben no agree-
ment made with those Gentlemen to give them a compensation for all the scurrilous abuse with which anonimous, bush-firing scribblers chuse to lode them. I don't like altogether the Ingen way of shuten—it always puts me in mind how they tyed old Jenner Putman to a tree and thru there towny-barks at his hed for sport, when he had nothin to defend himself with but his courage and luv of his countrie.
Notum Benum. [there are more latine for yu.]—I think it wud be rather too bad to tel the Presydent, when he wanted a littel cash, “to go borrow it and be d—d.” I should tel him this, “the confertushon is my gide, Sir—and so Sir—why, [with my arms a-kimbo] yu shall have a penny,” and then i wud turn on my heel as short as the breaking of a pipe-stem.
Foreign Intelligence. From Hamburg Papers.
GOETTINGEN, August 15. The hatred of the country people of this province against the English is continually increasing; the soldiers of the national regiments and the peasants considering the foreign troops as their common enemy, join on every occasion against the British military.
If we can believe the current reports, the states of Hanover, encouraged by the spirit of discontent which gradually communicates to all classes of inhabitants, are determined to insist that this Electorate be separated from the crown of England, and formally ceded to one of his majesty's princes, and heirs, who, by taking up his residence among loyal subjects, might prevent the imminent dangers which threaten the peace and safety of the Electorate, if it should continue separated from its sovereign by an extensive sea.
The Duke of York's interest is powerfully supported by the leading members of the regency, the military officers, the majority of the nobles, and above all by Prussia. If he should be proclaimed Elector which is very probable, the principality of Grubenhagen and the district of Hammeln which intercept the communication between Brandenburg and the Prussian possessions in Westphalia, will be given up to his father in-law as a compensation for his good services, and the Bishoprick of Hildesheim will at the same time be divided between the Elector of Hanover and the Duke of Brunswick; consequently all the north of Germany will in future be under Prussian supremacy.
ANLTONA, August 20. Yesterday a severe edict was published at Hamburg against the Emigrants, who some time since have secretly enlisted in that city.
The Turkish Ambassador who resided some time at London, passed through Prague on his return to Constantinople. Baron Hogner, the minister of Holland at St. Peterburgh, has left that capital with his family and suite.
COPENHAGEN, August 15. The division of the combined fleet destined for the North-Sea, passed yesterday the sound, after having several days waited for a favourable wind.
Government has lately granted part of the palace of Fredricksborg to the sufferers during the late fire. It is hoped that those who are still living under tents in the Northfield, will be provided with lodgings before the winter season comes on.

LONDON, September 1.
A letter from Avranche brings the following intelligence:
"Terrorism prevails more than ever in this district. The troops which pass and repass, commit the same horrid excesses which distinguished the reign of the Decemvirs. The generals and other officers, in the midst of universal distress, display scandalous luxury, and the most insulting extravagance. Some of them are not ashamed of parading the country on superb courfers, followed by a dozen of attendants, equally well mounted."
"The Jacobins have only changed their name. Proscribed under their former appellation, which had, very justly, become infamous and odious, they have become soldiers, and have enlisted in the battalions which are stationed in this quarter. Some of them have obtained commissions; others are corporals; and others are commissaries, employed in hunting whatever they please to distinguish by the denomination of Chouans. Every day 150 volunteers are in motion. A company, composed of the most determined rogues which the country could supply, accompanies them in their march headed by a known terrorist, named Gauchet, the worthy pupil of Carpenter, a Cameleon, who has been successively a monk, an attorney, a soldier, a parson, and a commissary."
"If these gentry observe a house that bears an appearance the least decent, or even a cottage, which affords any prospect of plunder, they immediately exclaim—Chouans! The house is instantly surrounded, and the sabre and bayonet applied to the bosom of the unfortunate occupier, who is compelled to unlock all his drawers, while the rascals seize upon his money, his linen, and other effects: they then visit the cellar, start all the casks, and get drunk in the midst of the deluge which they themselves have occasioned."
"Nobody can travel without a passport, signed by two witnesses, who answer for their civism, and confirmed by the district."
September 8.
By a cartel from Brest we learn, that the crew of the Montagne of 120 guns, arrived at that port from l'Orient, and gave an account, that that beautiful ship had by some means, got on a reef of sharp rocks near l'Orient, from whence it was hardly possible she could again be got off, as by rolling, the rocks had perforated her bottom; and the sea flows and ebb in and out of her every tide: she was, by all accounts given of her, the first ship in the French navy, and is now by neglect supposed to be rendered unfit for any further service.
SAINT MAKING;
A ceremony unabolished in the 18th century!!!
From Rome, August 8. It appears that on the preceding Sunday, his holiness, attended by several officers of distinction, went to the church of St. Bonaventura, where he was received by the Cardinals Archinto and Braschi, and the superiors of that Convent. The Pontiff, after the celebration of Mass, proceeded to Port Maurice. He went into the apartment where the monk died, and with the assistance of the Cardinals, and other officers and prelates, published the decree of beatification and canonization of Father Leonardo, with the approbation of two miracles, wrought through the intercession of this deceased saint. The reading of this instrument being finished, a marble stone, with a suitable inscription was produced. The Bishop of Cervia also presented his holiness, with the identical Crucifix, which the deceased father used to carry with him upon his missions, with a piece of carved work, intended to decorate the chamber they were in, and representing the conversion of a chief of a Corsican banditti, effected by the venerable missionary.
After this, to finish the ceremony, the pontiff went to the cell where this Saint was visited by Pope Benedict XIV. being confined with a lame leg which his power of working miracles was incapable of curing!
NEW-YORK, November 12.
By His Excellency JOHN JAY, Esq. Governor and Commander in Chief of the State of New-York.
A PROCLAMATION.
WHEREAS the great creator and preserver of the universe is the supreme sovereign of nations, and does, when and as he pleases, reward or punish them by temporal blessings or calamities, according as their national conduct recommends them to his favor and beneficence, or excites his displeasure and indignation.
And whereas in the course of his government he hath graciously been pleased to show singular kindness to the people and nation, of which this State is a constituent member, by protecting our ancestors, in their first establishments in this then savage wilderness—by defending them against their enemies—by blessing them with an uncommon degree of peace, liberty, and safety, and with the civilizing light and influence of his holy gospel—by leading us [as it were by the hand] through the various dangers and difficulties of the late revolution, and crowning it with success; by giving us wisdom and opportunity to establish governments and institutions auspicious to order, security and rational liberty; by preserving us from being involved in the wars and other grievous calamities which at this moment afflict and distress many nations; by restoring peace between us and the hostile Indians who infested our borders; by constantly favouring us with fruitful seasons; and in general, by giving us a greater portion of public welfare and prosperity, than to any other people.
And whereas it hath pleased him, by permitting sickness to prevail and be fatal to the lives of many in our principal city, and in sundry places in this and other states, and by the extensive alarms and embarrassments which attended it, to remind us that prosperity and adversity are in his hand; and that in all our pursuits we are to remember, that he is the cause and giver of all the good that was, that is, or that will be. And whereas our Almighty sovereign, in addition to his other mercies, hath lately stayed the hand of the destroying angel, and
by thus manifesting and multiplying his benefits to us as a people, calls upon us as a people to manifest our gratitude to him:
Wherefore, and particularly on this occasion, it appears to me, to be the public duty of the people of this State collectively considered, to render unto him their sincere and humble thanks for all these his great and unmerited mercies and blessings. And also to offer up to him their fervent petitions to continue to us his protection and favor. To preserve to us the undisturbed enjoyment of our civil and religious rights and privileges, and the valuable life and usefulness of the President of the United States. To enable all our rulers, councils, and people to do the duties incumbent on them respectively, with wisdom and fidelity—to promote the extension of true religion, virtue, and learning—to give us all grace to cultivate national union, concord, and goodwill; and generally to bless our nation; and all other nations, in the manner and measure most conducive to our and their best interests and real welfare.
Whether the governor of this State is vested with authority to appoint a day for these purposes, and to require and enjoin the observance of it, is a question which circumstances as it is, I consider as being more proper for the legislature than for me to decide. But as the people of the State have constituted me their chief magistrate, and being perfectly convinced that national prosperity depends, and ought to depend on national gratitude and obedience to the supreme ruler of all nations. I think it proper to recommend, and therefore I do earnestly recommend to the clergy and others my fellow-citizens throughout this State, to set apart Thursday the twenty-ninth day of November inst. for the purposes aforesaid, and to observe it accordingly.
Given under my hand, at the Government House in this City of New-York, on the eleventh day of November, in the year of our Lord one thousand seven hundred and ninety-five, and in the twentieth year of the Independence of the United States.
JOHN JAY.

TO PHILADELPHUS.
If it were possible to develop the motives which induced many of the Soi disant patriots of the present day, to advocate the Revolution, they would be found to be very variant from those which governed the great mass of the American Citizens, who being Republicans from habit and principle, waged war with their oppressors and not with private contraries! I must beg leave to decline your invitation for the two following reasons:—Firstly, because I have no curiosity to pry into your affairs—And Secondly, because in a moral point of view it is immaterial whether you are a British, Dutch, or American debtor: for, Sir, I can never bring myself to believe, that any man unembarrassed in his circumstances, would write the letter of which you acknowledge yourself the author. As there is no general rule however, without an exception, I will retract my opinion as it relates to yourself, if you can assign any other satisfactory reason for your attempting to promote a state of things in this Country, hostile to the true interest of all those persons who have any thing to lose and consequently, only favorable to such men, who are Bankrupts in fame as well as fortune.

MR. FENNO. OF all projects for raising money, that recently adopted by Mr. Randolph appears to be the most ingenious. In the first place, he makes certain "precious confessions" and "overtures," which though very interesting to the people of the United States, were certainly attended with no expense to himself. He next resigns his office, in a critical stage of the public affairs, and makes a journey of parade to visit the ex minister of France: on his return he publishes several extracts of letters written by himself, all tending to induce honest people to suspect that he has been guilty of some devilry. A "consolatory transference" of the truth is then distributed privately through the country, of which vague reports are circulated. After the public curiosity has been excited to the highest pitch to know the meaning of these strange movements, a pamphlet which is to contain a vindication of them, is promised to the public: But mark! the copyright is secured to the publisher! It would be folly to hazard any other prediction upon the issue of this project, than that the author is likely to sell his character at its full value. The profits of this operation, however, have very probably been overrated, as the opponents of "immoral taxation" may justly consider this mode of raising money as an Excise, or what is still worse, a direct tax upon this new invented manufacture. If this should indeed happen, must we have another insurrection? If so, who is to suppress it? Y.

MR. FENNO. The following Toasts drank by the Master Sail-Makers of New-York, are omitted in the Aurora of this morning, as unimportant, viz:
"May the promoters of Wars be faddled with the expenses of them."
"May the Societies of America be the nurseries of virtue, benevolence and true Republicanism."
"A Bolt rope Cravat to the Infringer of the Rights of the People."
The reason why these were omitted in the Aurora is obvious, the first touches all the demagogues of America.
The second is a sleet at the vicious resolutions and conduct of several Societies who call themselves Republicans.
The last alludes to the conduct of those who would make the minority in the Senate, superior to the majority, contrary to the Constitution, and to the Rights of the People.

SATURDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 14, 1795.
The ship Active, Blair, from Havre de Grace, a new ship from New-England, and the Schooner President, Connell, from Hispaniola, were seen below the Fort last night, and a brig lower down, name unknown.
Two inward bound brigs were seen below New-Castle, name unknown.
NOTIFICATIONS.
The late Governor Jay's Proclamation against the disorganizers of the day is perfectly in the little print. There cannot be a doubt, but the disorganizers should have been under the weight of abolishing Fanaticism, they would display no such appearance of public worship, and make the acknowledgement of a Deity, a crime.
The moderate temper of the disorganizers of the day is abundantly apparent from the epithets which they bestow on those who the People have honored with their suffrages. In proportion to their virtue, abilities, and estimation, is the contumely and abuse vomited by these revilers against the first Patriots of our country—and as it was in France, so would it be in America, should the Robespierian Faction carry their points, distinguished characters would be the first victims to immolate on the Altars of Anarchy.
INFORMATION.

NEW-YORK, November 12.
Extract of a Letter from Jamaica, to a Merchant in this City, dated, Sept. 14, 1795.
"We have in this Country about 5000 free negroes able to bear arms, the remains of the Spanish and other negroes who in old rebellions, obtained their freedom by a treaty with lands and many privileges; they are dispersed about the Island, in five or six different settlements at a great distance from each other, and of late years have been very useful in going in parties after the runaway negroes.
Those who were settled in Trelawney town, have for some time past, been extremely insolent to the neighbouring white people; and in consequence of a variety of ill conduct, were ordered up to Spanish Town, by the Governor, according to an article in the treaty with them; on their refusal, martial law was declared; and Lord Pa'caras, at the head of the 30th dragoons and about 2000 militia and regulars, took the field against them. Their settlement being 20 miles in the inland part of the country, from (Montego Bay) where the troops were collected, and in a position the strongest that the country affords. It was found a difficult matter to enter their town—in consequence Colonel Sandford, with a party of the 20th, which he commanded, and some militia troops, in all about 100, were ordered by the general to gain a post near their rear and in their position ground, where his lordship tho't they might be inclosed, and compelled to surrender—Sandford in the act of completing his orders, that he saw a good opportunity at striking at a party of them drawn up in his front, with a narrow defile before them, he was imprudent enough to push into the defile contrary to orders, and had but got half through, when he received a strong fire from a party in ambuscade, which brought him down and about 30 of the party; the Maroons immediately fled into the woods, nor have we been able, to bring them to action since, a strong force is now employed to go into them and from some overtures they have made, it is supposed the whole will surrender on having their lives preserved. It is the intention to ship them off the country, their number is about 150. One great consolation has attended this business, that not one of the slaves have joined them but have universally been active against them, nor have any of the other maroons given them the least assistance, but are now, to the amount of near 80, serving against them.
On the whole, if we terminate the business soon either way, by their surrender or extirpation, it will show to all the world, that however convulsed, the public opinion, has been in other countries, we have preserved a tranquility, to which every other part of the West has been strangers. Indeed the good treatment that more universally prevails respecting slaves, leaves them nothing to hope or wish in all points, except their freedom. Nearly 500 dollars currency is offered for each maroon, in rebellion, dead or alive. You may judge how long they will resist that temptation, which to slaves is also freedom. I have seen thus particular, in my detail, from a knowledge, how much the public opinion, in every country, is influenced by alarms and improper or untrue accounts. I am sorry to see a want of unanimity prevail in your continent, on the subject of your British treaty, it made us all happy here to close a direct trade established between you and us in our own vessels, so long resisted by the British cabinet, and so long prayed for by us. I am sure if your President should be unwise enough to assent, it will be long, very long ere he has another offer of the same kind; to me it appears beyond a doubt, that Pitt has been compelled by the events of the day, to depart from his long professed opinions, that no treaty ought to be entered into with the colonies of America, that could allow a cockboat to navigate under their flag to the British Islands in the West Indies; and if the pressure of the times should allow him to return to his original opinions, I fear both you and we will have reason to lament the loss that the political influence has obtained for us. It will be long before France can recover from the dreadful condition she is reduced to, and if we can get her off our hands, it may occur as a political speculation in the balance of power, whether it can be the interest of Britain or Spain that America should so suddenly lift up her head as a maritime power, aiming at a share of the dominions of both.
Let our political men calculate, and let them examine what has given them the high tide of prosperity that now flows so rapidly into their harbours! Is it not the present unexampled state of Europe, turned from cultivation and industry, to an armed mass, whose wants demand supplies from you as a people at peace? It appears to me, that you have a people amongst you, poor and desperate enough to covet another revolution, the rich against the poor, not a war of principle, as your last, but a war of Sans-coulottism, against all the rules of order and propriety that protect and bind together mankind in their best state of civilization. Your President is at present the admiration of all the thinking part of the world, I hope he will continue to maintain his superior mind with his usual firmness, and show the latest posterity, that one man was found in this age, incapable of yielding to the virulent declamation of a whole nation, or a few narrow minded individuals."
WINCHESTER, Nov. 9.
A gentleman from the South Western Territory informs, that Governor Blount was met on the 10th of Oct. at Tellico block house, by several Chiefs and Warriors of each of the tribes of Creek, Cherokee and Chickasaw Indians, with whom he commenced a talk. The Creeks and Cherokees kept aloof for several days, apparently wishing to prefer war to peace (but more especially the former, to wreak their revenge on the Chickasaws) till the 17th, when they altered their tone, and agreed to smoke the calumet of peace with that nation and the United States. John Watts and the Little Turkey were among the Cherokees which attended; and followed the example of the Creeks, in declaring their wish to live in amity with the United States.
Our informant adds, that previous to the holding of this Talk, the Creeks had made a second attack on the Chickasaws, but were repulsed, with the loss of upwards of thirty killed, and many wounded.

TREASURY of the UNITED STATES, August 24th, 1795. NOTICE is hereby given to all persons who are or may be Creditors of the United States, for any sums of the Funded Debt, or Stock, bearing a present interest of six per centum per annum: 1st. That pursuant to an Act of Congress, passed on the third day of March, 1795, intitled, "An Act making further provision for the support of Public Credit, and for the redemption of the Public Debt," there will be reimbursed and redeemed, on the first day of January ensuing, the rate or proportion of two per centum of the principal of the debt or stock, expressed in the Certificates issued to the said Creditors respec- tively. 2d. The said reimbursements will be made at the Treasury of the United States, or at the Loan Offices where the said Stock may stand credited at the close of the present year. 3d. The said reimbursements will be made to the said Creditors in person, or to their Attorneys duly constituted; but the powers of attorney which may be produced must contain an authority to receive the said reimbursements of principal, otherwise no more than the usual dividend of interest will be paid; and although the two per centum of principal to be redeemed, should not be demanded, yet the interest thereon will cease from the said first day of January next. 4th. To prevent the great trouble and expense which would attend a renewal of the Certificates, in conse- quence of the said reimbursement of Principal, it has been determined that no renewal shall be made: And further, that the Certificates which may be issued dur- ing the year One thousand seven hundred and ninety- six, in consequence of any transfers of the said six per cent. Stock, shall notwithstanding the reimbursement of two per centum, as aforementioned, be expressed for the respective sums of the original Capital Stock. All persons who may negotiate the Funded six per cent. Stock of the United States, bearing a present interest, are therefore cautioned to observe, that during the year One thousand seven hundred and ninety-six, the value or true amount of Principal unredemed of said Debt or Stock, will be ninety-eight per centum of the sums expressed in the Certificates. Given under my hand, at Philadelphia, the day and year before mentioned, pursuant to di- rections of the Secretary of the Treasury, SAMUEL MEREDITH, Treasurer of the United States. Aug. 24.
A MILL for SALE. FOR Sale, on private contract, five undivided sixths parts of that valuable merchant-mill, called Old Pennyback Mill, with two dwelling houses, stable, coop- er's shop, cafe house, and other convenient buildings, with about 20 acres of good land, the greatest part thereof is excellent watered meadow, the remainder garden, orch- ard, and wood land; situate ten miles from Philadelphia, near the Washington Tavern, partly on the post-road lead- ing to New-York, and partly on the River road; a re- markably healthy country, and an excellent neighbour- hood. This mill being on Pennyback 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 150 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 masonry work is rarely to be found) contains five floors, two water wheels, and three pair of the best French burr stones all running, double geared, with three boiling reels and quays of the best quality, rolling screen, cylinder, and bins for cleaning wheat in the best manner, and passing it afterwards by an elevator into a hanging garner; also, conveyors, elevators, and hopper boy, all in complete or- der. There are two large frame buildings adjoining the mill, which are convenient for storing flour, shorts, cakes, &c. A corn-mill is erected within the building, with hoisting, reel cloth, and other necessary fixtures for man- ufacturing large quantities of kiln-dried corn meal. The stream of water is so constant that upwards of 60,000 bush- els of wheat have frequently been manufactured at this mill, annually. The tumbling dam was built of stone and frames about 30 years ago, but the late extraordinary freshes have made a breach therein, it can easily be repaired alto- gether 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 coniguity of this very valuable estate to Philadelphia, and the easy ac- cess for shallops, with the above-mentioned great ad- vantages, and many others not here mentioned, must be obvious to any person who may view the premises. An indispensable 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.

SITUATE in the township of Upper Darby, and county of Delaware, 7 1/2 miles from Philadelphia, and half a mile from the new Waverly road: containing 230 acres of excellent Land, 45 of which are new and wooded Meadow, 92 of prime Wood Land, and the rest Arable of the first quality. There are on the premises a good dwelling House, with a room on a floor, and Cellar under the whole, with a Pump Well of ex- cellent Water in front; a large Stone Barn, Stable, and other convenient buildings; a Smoke-House and Stone Spring House; two good Apple-Orchards, and one of Peaches. The Earth are all in Clover, except those immediately under village, and are fit and 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 in- spection of the Land, the good neighbourhood, and the proximity to the city, it is very suitable for a Gentleman's Country Seat. The Farming is part of the Estate of Jacob Homan, deceased and offered for sale by MORDECAI LEWIS Surviving Executor. Oct. 3, 1795
Forty Dollars Reward. RAN away from the subscriber, living at Mordington Mills, near Frederica, in Kent county, State of Dela- ware, 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 good slave in his dress; has naturally a countenance, and easy counte- nance, altho' he at times affects a sullen look; his visage is thin, with large black whiskers, and the whites of his eyes often red: It is not recollected, whether he has any par- ticular birth-marks, except on his back, where may be seen (tho' light) the scars of the whip, placed by judicial authority, for house-breaking, lock-breaking, stealing, &c. as well before, as since I purchased him. He is pos- sessed 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 per- suaded 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.
ALL persons having any demands on the Estate of Mary Hewson, late of Bucks county deceased, are desired to apply to William Hewson, her husband, in the county aforesaid, for immediate settlement. And all persons indebted to said Estate are requested to make pay- ment to the said William Hewson, who is hereunto authori- zed to receive the same. ELIZABETH HEWSON, Executrix.

EXTRACT FROM THE CRITICAL REVIEW, APRIL 1791. P. 468. "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 ra- ther than a conviction of her integrity, or the regularity, of her former conduct, is enticed 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 inconstancy of her lover and treach- ery of her friend." The fictions are artless and affecting—the description natural and pathetic; we should feel for Charlotte if such a person ever existed, who for one error, severely, perhaps deserved, so severe a punishment. If it is a fiction, poetic justice is not, we think, properly distributed. 1. The Inquisitor—by Mrs. Rowson. Second Philadel- phia edition. 87 p. 2 cents. 2.

LOTTERY INTELLIGENCE.
We are informed that the gentleman who drew the $5,000 dollar prize, in the Canal Lottery, was the proprietor of only a single Ticket—This instance of good fortune, shews that it is well to be in Fortune's road; and is the more-pleasing, as the owner of the prize is a very worthy, though not a very affluent ci- tizen. The Scheme of the Canal Lottery is certainly one of the best which has appeared—for, independent of the useful objects to which its proceeds are to be ap- plied, the scheme is so calculated as to continually en- hance the value of the Tickets remaining in the wheel; because, while the drawing progresses, the chance of a capital prize growing greater, must increase the value of the undrawn Ticket. The Prizes drawn to the close of the drawing on last Wednesday Evening, were 1 of 1,000 2 of 2,000 3 of 1,800 4 of 500 5 of 100 11 of 12 1700 of And there then remained in the wheel 1 of 50,000 1 of 30,000 1 of 10,000 2 of 2,500 6 of 2,000 9 of 1,000 15 of 500 36 of 100 89 of 12 14850 of
And 5 stationary prizes of 20,000 dollars each; by which, and the nature of the five 5 stationary prizes, which are to belong to the five last drawn tickets, it will be found, that an undrawn ticket was yesterday morning, worth nearly 112 dollars, which, at the beginning, was worth no more than 10 dollars— and to the undrawn tickets must continue to increase in value, as fast as the drawing proceeds; And this circumstance will account for the number of Offices which are opened for the sale of Tickets, as the pros- fits must be daily increasing; and in a few days a Ticket now selling at 11 dollars, will no doubt com- mand 15 dollars, and must continue to get higher as the drawing approximates to the five stationary prizes of 20,000 dollars each.
