THE want of fufficient information of the 1
state trials of Gieai-Britain in the early
periods of that government is now lamented :
Hi herto there hath been but one trial in the
state of Pennsylvania on impeachment : —and
heiealTo it is to be regretted, that, being neg
lected at the time, the public are now left with
out fufficient information on the fubjeft of that
trial, it is however in this work designed to ref
cue|what can be collected thereof from sources
of indifpuiaple authority, so that the fame (hall
be preserved from oblivion.
Another impeachment and the second is now
depending. An officer is charged by the late
Honfe of Reprelentatives, who hath for many
years been largely confided in by this state, and
hath long been at the head of the financial de
partment of the Tame, and it imports the citi
zens to know his conduit, and thecircumftances
which may be brought sot ward on his trial.
In this work the Editor will be careful to
state the facts, as they may be brought forward,
and to lay all the evidence and papers before
! the public.—With this view—

good type, on fine paper, and delivered to

the length of the present trial, the fir.e of tbe
volume cannot be ascertained at this time—
But the price (hall not exceed that of fomeof
the Uteft publications in this city.

cidental circumstances that may occur during
the trial of John Nicholfon, X(quire, Comp
troller-General of this commonwealth, with
thearguments of counfrl on both frdes, together
with the articles of impeachment, and the
pleas and replications at large, the fcveral re
solutions of the two branches of the state Le
gislature, refpe&ing this impeachment, and
the final decision of the SENATE refpe&ing
that officer.
To which will be prefixed, as much as can be
colle&ed from authentic documents, of the im
peachment, trial, and aequital of the late Francis
Hopkinfon, Esquire, Judge of the Court o(
Admiralty for the state of Pennsylvania, during
the late war, never before pnblifhed.
