PROPOSALS
FOR PUBLISHING BY SUBSCRIPTION,
A Ground Plan
OF THE
City Philadelphia,
AND ITS ENVIRONS:
Taken from adtual iurvey, by A. PfFOLIE,
Geographer, from. St. Domingo,
THIS Plan will be engraved on a plate 26
inches square ; and it will conWo an ex
act description of all the squares, ftr' ets and
alleys in the City and Liberties. The fituaiion
of rhe several public buildings, such as the State-
H«ufe, City-Hall, Seat of Qongrefs, Churches,
Meeting-Houfcs, Hofpiial, Libraiy and Semina
ries of Learning—of the {everal Banks, and of
the Federal and State Offices, will be ascertained.
The parts which are built on will be d'ftingmfh
ed from those that are not. The courl'es of the
rivulets between Delaware and Schuylkill, and
as much of the Canal, intended to connect the
navigation of these two waters, as lies within
the compass of the draught, will be accurately
delineated. It will also be ornamented, by a
view of the flapping in the harbor, and an ele
vation of Congress-Hall, and of the other public
buildings that occupy the ground contiguous.
In fhorr, nothing will be omitted to render this
ufeful and desirable work acceptable to an en
lightened public, that is in the author's power:
and it (hall be compleated with the greatefl
poflible dispatch, as soon as the generous encou
ragement of fubfcnbeis shall insure to the author
such a sum as will be fufficicnt to delray ex
pences.
A Pamphlet will be delivered with each
Plan, which will contain an alphabetical lift of
the Subscribers names, and information con
cerning the police, population and present ftattf
of the city.
The price to fubferibers will be Two Dollars
and one third, to be paid at the time of deliver
ing the Plans.
Subscriptions will be gratefully received at
the principal Booksellers iu this city—and the
original Draft may be seen at B. Davies',
No. 68, Market-street, at any time until it shall
be f'Ut into the hands of the Engraver.

Speech of Mr. Madison.
[continued.]
If it were neoeflary to investigate the
full amount of re-exportations, several ar
ticles might have been added to the lift,
such as Whale-Oil, Ginseng, Flax-Seed,
&c.
Nor would it be unfair, perhaps, to in
clude the primitive value of the articles,
re-exported in the new forms given to
them by art. A great proportion of what
is sent from the United States to Great-
Britain, in a rude state, it worked into
articles of merchandize, and exported in
the course of trade. Take, for example,
the two articles of Pot and Pearl A (lies,
and Indigo.
The amount of the «xport of the form
er to Great-Britain, is Hated at 747,078
dollars ; of which, if no part is re-export
ed in its unaltered state, the whole enters
into British manufa&ures. Supposing one
third of these particular manufa&ures, to
be exported which appears to be nearly
the general proportion, the value of Pot
and Pearl Afties re-exported, is 249,026
dollars.
The indigo used in Great Britain has
appeared to be 379,064 dollars. One
third of which re-exported as an ingredi
ent in manufactures, is 126,254 1-2 dol
lars. These two items alone amount to
375'3 50 2 "3 dollars,and with many others
might be added to the mass of re-expor
tations. But they are stated rather to
throw light on the general chara&er of
our trade with Great Britain, than to be
relied on in the present cafe, which has
been fufficiently elucidated by more direst
and simple views of it.
Mr. M. proceeded to apply the cal
culations he had made, to the question
discussed by Mr. Smith, in relation to the
comparative importance of the French and
Britifti matkets to the productions of the
United States.
By deducting the 3,501,067 dollars, re
exported, from the 6,651,429 dollars, im
ported into Great Britain, he reduced her
actual consumption to 3,150,362 dollars,
to which adding the 1,805,744 exported
to the Weft-India market, the whole Bri
tish consumption Hands at no more than
4>9j6,106 dollars. On comparing this
with the exports to the French dominions
(who re-export none of any consequence)
to wit, 4,424,336, the fubjift took a ve
ry different aspect from that which h?d
been given to it.
But there was, Mr. M. observed, a cir
cumstance of the utmost importance to a
fair view of this question, which had been
wholly overlooked by the gentleman from
Scuth-Carolina, and which cut up his cal
culations by the roots.
The re-exportations from G. Britain,
were not only to be fubt rafted from the
consumption of G. Britain, but in a great
degree being made to France, were to he
added to the value of her market to the a -
griculture and commerce of the United
States
The re-exportations from G. Britain to
France, could not be accurately fixed bv
- any documents to be had here. In gene
ra!, they were known to be great. Jie
would, he said, confine himfelf ro the
two articles of Tobacco and Flour, of
which he estimated the amounts as fol
lows :
The tobacco exported from the United
States, appears to be about loc.ooo
hhds. It is valued in the return of our
exports at 4,349,567 dollars.
It is known that France consumes about
1-4 of the whole quantity exported, that
is, 1,087.392 dollars. It appears, by the
return of our exports, that the dired ex
ports of this article to France, -(lands at
3 8+.641 dollars. The indirect fupplios
