horse was purchased by me when in Lon

training will stand the ensuing season ar
Sandy Point, Charles City country. The
scarcity OF money induces the subscriber
to let him cover mares this SEASON at 10
dollars the single leap, 20 dollars the sea-
son, thirty dollars To insure a marc in
foal, the insurance money to be pad, by
the gentleman Who insured If changed the
season money may be discharged by the
psment of fifteen dollars by the tenth of

Press gangs are continually opposed & resist

the means or the least hope of escaping. Navy
officers & men are sometimes killed. & there
is no inquisition for their blood As little noise
as possible is made about it, It's known to be
justihable homicide, to take the life of an
assailant in the necessary defence of a mans
liberty. There is not jury in England who
would find 4 verdict of murder or manslauph-

who should kill any orc Of press gang in ,be

judging from the facts judicially disclosed to
me, (Which are all that can judge from)
that the present case is SO circumstanced.
The certificates were certainly paid to Mr..
Rittenhouse, as Treasurer of the state. But
tits equally certain, that neither he. nor his
representatives since his death, did deposit
them in the Treasury of Pennsylvania ON
the contrary. they were investedby him in
new Fund in his own name, and it appears
ny his written memorandum, thathe did not
consider them as the property of the state,
but his own property. until the state should
give him a certain decentralization, which
never was given-If this evidence is not
strong enough to shew that the certificates
and money were not in the hoSS ession of the
state, 1t acquires an additional strength diff
,0uit To resist, from the circumstance stated
IN the answer of Elizabeth Sergeant and
Esther Waters, "that they had refused 20
deiUer them to the Treasurer of the state.
although expressly required so to do" Whe-
Their the conduct Of Mr.. Rittenhouse and his
Executrixes was right or wrong, is not the
point now obe enquired into-The fact ia.
that they did qvifhhoid the certificates and
interest money, from the Treasure, until after
the final decree of the District Court. Thei,
paying 1T afterwards, cannot affect the cues
tioa OF jurisdiction. How then does the case
stand! The froherfy of these certificates
and interest money, was irrevocably vested
in Olmstead, &c. by the decree of the for
mef Court of Appeals. which the Supreme
tourt OF the United States since the adoption
OF the present constitution, has decided to be
conference.-the possession was not i'm the
state, and the suit was not brought against
the state or any of its officers l do not see
then how can be maintained, even under
liberal construction of the 18th Art. of the
Amendments, that the STATE was harfu TO
the suit, in the District Court. Several acts
and resolutions of the legislature of Penn
sylvania were read in the course of the ar
yument, concerning which am not called
upon to decide-I exercise the right in COM
mon with my fellow citizens, of speaking INV
sentiments, on political occurrences in pri-
vate conversations, but it would ill become
me on tins occasion, to express any opinion
concerning the policy which the state ha.
thought proper to pursue.-Whatever thew
nave done, extend to them the same chart.
ty which ask for myself, the belief tina,
they have acted from hure motiyes. But
although say nothing concerning the policy
OF the government. Imay be allowed, with
out lmPropriety, to express my anxious hope
that this long continued controversy will be
brought to termination, without any mate
rial interruption of that harmony between
this state and the United States, SO essential
10 the prosperity of both.
STi tic wiIoic of this case 1 cannot saw
that 1t clearly appears to me, that the Dis

cree, in cause of which it had no iurisdic-
toni must order, therefore, that Mrs
