Orphan Asylum and Female Free School. which
appeared in the Gazette few days ago BEG,
Leave to state, that an unntentional mistake
was made in one paragraph, which he wisha
to correct. II was stated that the gentleman
from whom the Orphan House was purchase
had, in consequence of receiving the sun Of
$1,000 at once, relinquished 500 of the amount
OF sale. This statement was calculated to make
a wrong impression. The Trustee Of the pro-.
perry, who negotiated the whole affair, and is
in consequence, acquainted with all the circun
stances, says that no such barc ain was made
The owner Of the property did give the sum 81
500 to the Society, as other gentlemen cav
various sums, as donation. This statement
made most cheerfully, at the suggestion Of ti'
trustee, as an act Of justice 70 all concerned
