| A/HERE.aS sundry evil minded persons with an
~ intent to disquiet and agitate the minds Of the
good citizens of ;his State, have printed published
and circulated, statements and reports, that there
are large sums Of money (called Crary BaLanees'
due from this State TO the officers and soldiers of
gments late under the command of Col CrGry, II
lot and Tophan, for the depreciation Of their pay
whilst in the service Of the II Sthtes And although
the General lSseBby have repeatedly declared that
this State is not liable for the same and although
the said Ciary and Iobham, and Major Fidgg, a.
gents in behalf Of themselves and the officers and
soldiers of said regiment, on the 4th day of Noyem-
Der, A. ID. 1785, by an instrument IN writing under
their hands, did forever rcnounce all claim and de-
mand against this State for the said depreciation f;
yet said reports, having in many instances gained be-
lief and occasoned much dsquet and alarm IN the
minds Of many of the good people of this STATE -
Therefore is u0ed and resoived, That this State is
not liable 20 pay the said depreciation (called Cray
Baiances) nor any part thereofi and that neither
the officers and soldiers Of said regiments, nor any
person claiming under them, have any claim or de-
mand whatever against this State for the same.

THE BUDGET.

Mr.. GaIlatin's budget at the opening of
the next session Of Congress, will be a
very curious document. He will be COM
PEELED TO tell the world, that through the
able managenlent Of affairs, our reve-
nue. amounts to just nothing at all-at all,
and that all the expenccs of government,
and even the interest of the public debt
must be defrayedb by loans. Upon the back
Of this we are led to expect very inge-
NOUS plan of going to war; for ingenious
must that plan be, which proposes to car
ny on war without the means.-Fed. Rep.
HENRY KuHL, Esquire, late assistant
Cashier in the Bank of the United States,
has been elected Cashier of the Farmers
and Mechanics Bank, in Philadelphia, in
the place Of JOSEPH CLAY, Esq. deceased.
The result of the late election in Rhode
Island, has been auspicious to the cause
of federal republicanism.

district, on Monday last, ordered the car

from Halifax, to leave the port by twelve

Two fellow travellers were pursued by
Lion, and in their eagerness to escape,
they hurried unperceiyed upon the verge
of a precipice that overhung gulf OF
hideous depth, and at whose bottom lay
extended a Dragon with his jaws yawning
horribly to devour them. They grasped
hold of tree that fourished upon this
fearful spot, when 10 at its roots were
seen the operations of the insidions mole,
covertly undermining the foundation of
their support. But needless of the dan

these inconsiderate men began quarrelling

Democrats, Judging from their own feel
ings, affect to think that office is the sole
aim Of Federal struggles. No such thing.
Let the party now in power select from
themselves, patriotic, virtuous and intelli-
gent individuals, to I'LL the various Off
ces let them administer the government
with purity, justice and impartiality; let
them restore to the people their fiwedom
and equal rights; let them extend the
hand of protection to the suffering COM
munity, rather than that Of intolerance &
persecution; let them bring back the
country to the proud standing Of honor
and prosperity where the administration
of Washington placed her; in short, let
them only do their duty, and the federal
lists will cordially acquiesce, and be salts
fed. All! but, says a snarIing democrat,
that would be restoring the federal admin
istration. And this is the only objection
they can bring to the expectancy of the
measure so that we must continue some
time longer-as we are. Salem Gaz.
When it was lately mentioned in an
eastern democratic paper that Duane
had turned federalist, it was not gene
rally believed, but the Aurora of this
morning seems to put the matter beyond
doubt, for abiding to the qualifications for
elective Offices, it's there said, that Sc The
ablest and best men in the community
ought to be placed in nominations" If
50, Duane well knows, that all democrats
must be excluded; and hence the Sly mode
Of recommending none but federalists.
1t is true, he concludes with something
like bull, for he tells US, that the

duty to the public to pursue in the approach
ing election, is to stand neutral"

Our readers will see by the two last
Bulletins, that his Majesty has at length
enjoyed some hours of sleep. and though
this refreshment was obtained by the
means of opiates. it has had the effect OF
lowering the fever.-We have stated to
our readers that it is the mental disorder
only which is alarming in his Majesty's
case. There is no decay OF the constitu-
ton which excites any serious apprehen-
sion and it is proof OF the original
strength of his Majesty that he has been
able to bear up against the violence OF
his inflammati0n.-We are assured that
for period of fifty four hours. he neither
closed his eyes, took any aliment, or for
one instant ceased talking with income

comfortable assurance Of continuing our
most strenuous efforts. in conjunction with
our allies, against the common enemy.
