jt\ QUARRIED to be let.
I will rent my merchant Mill at the little Falls of Po
5 tov.'mac, for any term not 1 .'IV than fever., nor more than '
-— eleven years, frorii the firft day of September nexi. ;
miil-houfe is 42 by 40 feet ; three ftorjes high, built w«h
stone, and has in it three pairs of French Burr Stones, two Q n
overihot 18 feet water-wheels, and Evans's machinery j, Q
complete, with every other thing proper and nece.fury for ( r j:
ted carrying on the business with dispatch, and at as little ex
f]X penle as possible, all in good ordtr.—f rorr\ the mill to my
P landing on'the Fstomac river, (where craft, of any bur
or then may deliver grain and take in flour) it is about 40 ,u<
-rf !» yarii, and from thepce by water t» George-Town and cel
tlie City of Walhington, about 3 miles, and to Alexan- .' e!
dria about 11 miles. This situation, aided by a fufficient
capital, will command the produce of a very extensive,
back country, where large quantities of wheat and other
grain is annually made, the distance to ft being from 8
to 10 miles less than to any market town upon the navi
gation of the Potowmac. There are on the premises a
largeftoneCoopers' ihap, a stone granary, and acommo
fent dious miiler's house. At the landing aforefaid a bridge P|
; u is now building over the Potomac, which is in great'for
waVdnefs and probably will be finifhed the enfutng fall,
There are also on the premises, a Brewery andDiftllle
ry, built with stone, in them are three stills, two coppers *~
or boilers, with cVery necefTary article, all new, and in
5 good ordsr, and futEciently large to carry on the Brew- R
•—- ery and Distillery upon a very extensive plan. This prop- w
crty I will rent for the fame term of years. /
Upon my lands adjoining the premises, and along the -
banks of the river, where craft may lead with ease and dif- tl
patch, is an inmenfe q iantity of building and fotinda
tion-ftones. Four quarries are now open, and as mftny _
more may be opened-with eafethe stone taken from thel'e g
quarries is better, arid has the preference at this market,
to any other stone brought to it. I will rent these quarries j
feparately or together as may best suit.
es. On he top of the hill, about 200 yards from the I a
mill, is a stone Dwelling-house, lr,rge enough fer the ac 7 „
commpdatioii of a fani'ly : also, a kitchen, dairy, fmpke
~ house, &c. and a garden, enc'ofed and in cultivation, the
'*> foiof which is equal in goodness to any in this' state. I
will also rent thi» property.
Adjoining to the Brewery *nd Distillery is a Smith's
j Hi op, in which is a complete set of Blacksmith's tbbls,
which 1 will also rent, and if agreeable I will hire to the
now- tenant two negro blacksmiths, one of them is a complete i .
workman.
sreft- II I rent out the stone quarries, I will fell three crafts, '
juan- which were built for the purpose of carrying stone : they t
lurite will altogether bring upwards of 90 perch. Immediate ]

I" S. URGES, C. S.
r-pHE publisher thinks it a mark of dtte to a
' I liberal and enlightened public, to inform them that
7 i this is the Poem for the pjibfiihing of which _he_ has been
j twice dragged frorri his ho ( ufe, and is now la coring
I a vexatious prosecution. He is confcieus that the piece
0r j contains nothing either criminal or offcnfive, unleis ori
a T i ginal wit, decorated in elegant language, be criminal or
j dlfgufting to the prevalent taste ; and, as he trr.lls that
I neither of thel'e is the cafe, he submits the work to the
r - public with a full assurance of its meeting with a l'avora
—• | ble reception. .
He would beg his prosecutors to call to mind (if they
M j aave ever read it) the following apologue to a w#ll known
' ! romance—" A young painter, indulging a vein of plea
''son I fantry, sketched a kind of Car.v. rfctkn Pic*, rcfpetfling a/
a {bear, an owl, a monkey, and an als; aiid to render it
®' n ° ! more striking, humourom, and moral, distinguished evc-
Td 'ry figure by some emblem of human life. Bruin was
?' t ! exhibited in garb and attitude of an old, Wothlefs,
>v . j drunken Soldier ; the owl perched upon the handle of a
no f coflce-pot, with fpea»cles cn his nose, seemed to contem
atte. plate a newspaper ; and the ass ornamented with a huge
ie in tve-wig (which, however, could not conceal his loi.g
enn- ears) fat for Ws phfture to the monkey, who appeared
lew- with the implements of painting. This -whrnf .-l
I afforded some mirth, and met with general approbation,
until (omc mischievous wag hinted the whole was a lam-
I poon upon an old officer, a physician, and a member of
■' I Parliament; an insinuation which was no iaoner qircu.at-
Di- ed, than these people began to be alarmed, and «ven to
~ fancy themselves figpified by the several hgures m tire
piece. ' Ihe fur ou, grcuf fell upon the painter, who de
clared that he had no design to give offence, or to cha
tock- j raSerize particular petfon?. 'l hey affirmed, tit reliance
iday t» it nerlM,—and their clamour L - Tig
r ten overheard 'by the public, the Captain was a bear, the
take Doaor an 'Is, and the Senator m owl, to their ,uy ng
said day." If a iimilar fate ffiould attend the' persons who
e and I will inlift upon being the members of this group, ths j
