' A very valuable Merchant Mill, o;
A DISTILLERY and BREWERY, and sundry STONE ir
QUARRIES to be let. C(
I will rent ray merchant Mill at the little Falls of Po- P
towmac, for any term not less than seven, nor more than "
eleven years, from the firft day of September next. ' The
f ellt mill-house is 42 by 40 feet, three stories high, built with -
S V stone, and has in it three pairs of French Burr Stones, two
overlhot 18 feet water-wheels, and Evans's machinery
r complete, with every other thing proper and neceflary for
carrying on the business with dispatch, and at as little ex
pense as possible, all in good order.—From the mill to my r
$ landing on the Potomac river, (where craft, of any bur
then may deliver grain and take in flour) it is about 40 0
yards, and from thence by water ti< George-Town and a
the City of Walhington, about 3 miles, and to Alexan- p
dria about 11 miles. This situation, aided by a fulficient a!
capital, will command the produce of a very cxtenfive k
et. back country, where large quantities of wheat and other 0
grain is annually made, the distance to it being from 8 "
to 10 miles less than to any market town upon the navi-
gation of the Potowniac. There are on the premises a
U> be large stone Coopers'lh ap, a stone granary, and a commo
dious miller's house. A* the landing aforei'aid a bridge
is now building over the Potomac, which is in great for-
! '' 0' wardnefs and probably will be finiftied the ensuing fall.
1C 1C There are also on the premises, a Brewery and Diftille
a ' ry, built with stone, in them are three stills, two coppers
~ or boilers, with every neceflary article, all new, and in
,S" good order, and fufficiently latge to carry on the Brew
nv ery and Distillery upon a very extensive plan. This prop
erty 1 will rent for the fame term of years.
Upon my lands adjoining the premises, and along the
cum banks of the river, where craft inay load with ease and dif
:reby p atc h, is an inmenfe quantity of building and lounda
:o h' 6 tion-ftones. Four quarries are now open, and as many
to more may be opened with ease : the stone taken from these
next quarries is better, and has the preference at this market,
next " to any other stone brought to it. I will rent these quarries
separately or together as may best suit.
Q n t jj C to p 0 f the hill, and about 200 yards from the
IMN m ;i[ ) tt stone Dwelling-house, large enough for the ac- 1
commoda'tion of a family : also, a kitchen, dairy, smoke- (
house, &c. and a garden, enciofed and in cultivation, the 1
s old foi of which is equal in goodness to any in this state. I ,
' will also rent this property. 1
Adjoining to the Brewery and Distillery is a Smith's 1
Clop, in which is a complete set of Blacksmith's tools, !
which 1 will also rent, and if agreeable I will hire to the
tenant two negro blacksmiths, one of them is a complete
workman.
If I rent out the stone quarries, I will fell three crafts,
which were bnilt for the purpofc of carrying stone : they
will altogether bring upwards of 90 perch. Immediate
nvas, pofleflion will be given, for terms apply to the fubferib
er in this town.
D. The Mill, Brewery and Distillery, with their appurten
§ ances, will be deliverad to the tenant or tenants in good
repair, and muftbe so returned, at the expiration of the
lease orleafes.

THE publisher thinks it a mark of refpeil, due to a
liberal and enlightened public, to inform them that
this is the Poem for tiie publilhing of which he has been
v twice dragged from his house, and is now laboring under
; a vexatious profecuticn. He is conscious that the piece
contains nothing either criminal or offenfive, unlets ori
ginal wit, decorated in elegant language, ba criminal or
dtfgufting to the prevalent talfe ; and, as he trusts that
neither of these is the cafe, he fubniits the work to th e
_ publit with a full assurance of its meeting with a favora
■ ble reception. _
He would beg his prosecutors to call to mind (it they
have ever read it) the following apologue to a well known
romancc—" A .young painter, indulging a vein of plea
santry, sketched a kind of Gonwrfatitn Piece, rtfpc&ing a
C " bear, :.n owl,' a monkey, and ah ass; and to renJef it
y ' more flriking, humouroui, and moral, dilKngiKffied eve
ry figure by some emblem of human life. Bruin was
J exhibited in the garb and attitude of an old,
', drunken soldier ; the owl perched upon the handle o£ a
" co ffce-pot, with fpedtacles on his nose, seemed to contem
plate a newfpapcr; and the ass ornamented with a huge
tye-wig (which, however, could not conceal his long
ears) fat for his pi<slure to the monkey, who appeared
with the implements of painting. This 'whimfcal group
afforded some mirth, and met with general approbation,
until some mischievous wag hinted thfc whole was a lam
poon upon an old officer, a physician, and a member of
Parliament; an insinuation which was no feoner circulat
ed ed, than these people Vgan to be alarmed, and evun to
ay f a n C y themselves fignified by the several figures in the
y- piece. Ihe furious greup fell upon the'painter, who de
lr" clarcd that he had 110 design to give offence, or to cha
raileri?s particular pei Tons. Thev affirmed, th; rrfetnhlanct
bc vat too palpable to be overtooicd, —and their clamours being
l<;t overheard by the public, the Captain was a bear, the
Dofior an ass, and the Senator an owl, to their dying
day." I?.a similar fate should attond the persons who
will infill upon being the members of this groui, the
public will do the publisher. the justice to remember that
it is no fault of his.
