GrstieWN, _ lu
Having attended at a meeting at Mr. Hoffman's tllC c
fcfiool, Cherry-street, as well as at *M.r. Little's avc .
/chool-hotife on Friday evening last, for the purpose ID K 1
of nominating suitable cdara&ers to he submitted nowf
to our fellow citizens for their fuffrage at the en
"filing eledi»n ; it appears but reasonable and pro- "'P
pcr,°that the bufmefs, so far as it hath been acted ou
'upon, should be laid before the citizens, generally, ~ de* i
for their information, that they may thereby .have h
time and a-i opportunity of conlidering the charac- '
4cr» of the several proposed candidates, and there- I'y 1
from feleft those men who are mod efleemed for an '
their wisdom, jvittue, and political knowledge in £ ent
government affaiis ; as well as the propriety of fe- man '
kiting Counsellors and Common Council men, for eer
making ordinances and bye laws to regulate the po
lice of this city. _
At this lall meeting (at Mr, Little's school) a
printed ticket, or lift of names, was offered to the r:!
gentlemen present, from which it was prepofed (at
a subsequent meeting to be called for the purpose) 3f(
to fclett a ticket to be supported by all the gentle-
men then present, at the ensuing ele&ion, for the
following offices, viz.
Governor.
A Member of Congress.
A Senator. teer
Six Members of Assembly, j jot|
Twelve feleft Counsellors.
Twenty Common Councilmen.
The propriety of the chara&ers contained in this
lift, to fill some of the important stations intended |^ r
for ihem, are so felf evident that they need no com-
raent : it is only withed that a choice had been sub- npr
mitted.to the meeting, as well in that of Governor
and Member of Congress, as in the several ttations and
v of less importance ; for though we have heard of , )nd
no opposition to the Governor ele&, zi Governor, d ,
v>e have heard of other candidates for Congress ; '
and could wish that JONAIHAN B. SMIIH j n
fee taken up for that important flation, Mr. Smith
js a native of this (late—received his education j
(which was liberal) amongst us—was bred a mer-
chant ill the countisg-houfe of his father in this
city—served as an officer in the militia, with; great of
reputation, daring the trying seasons of our glori- con
ous revolmiori of '76, '77, and '78—Cannot be £
supposed under the influence of foreign nations, ei-
ther from family connections, kingly patronage of q{
his friends or family—or from receiving his educa
tion in Europe. These considerations ihould have
their due weight with all independent American
electors. . _ j
Subjoined you have a copy of the printed lift cir- r j >;
•ulated at Mr. Little's school room, nothing t j w
doubting but that from so refpe<stable a collection .
of the names of our fellow-citiatens, a fafe ticket u £ e
may be formed, with Mr. Jonathan B. Smith as Kt
yo'ur Reprefentafive in Congress. ma
This recommendation isfubmitted to mature con- tj(j

By captain J®hnfon, in thefhip Nancy, 42 days j yj
from Lisbon, we have advice of the arrival of tlie j w
Brazil fleet there, S.ith property to an isrimeuf j ' at
value. J w
We have be«n favoured, with tlie following e:;- I
tva£t of a letter, frtm an American in Lisbon, tc 1 , a
his brother in this city, dated I t (
" Lisbon, August u, 1796. w
" Ever, fmce 1 have been here,, there has beeu the -j
grcf.teft -appearance of a rupture between Spain I [ a
and England. It hes at length taken place : Spain |y,
has (hut its ports against Englandj and it was Ve-J w
ported yesterday, and currently believed, that a t [
part of the Spanish fleet had failed in conjunction q
with the French-—their destination unknown.
" The French have keen uniformly fuccefsful in j 0
Italy ; and the present appearance is, that the Pope t ;
will be dethroned, or will be forced t<) make peace ! {]
with the French upon »heir own terms. Indeed, a
they have already levied heavy contributions upon I
several of his provinces, and made a demand upon j t .
them of 20,000,000 florins. On the Rhine, they
, are equally fucCefsful. If this campaign ends as a
fuccefsfully as it has begun, the French will have no t
enemy in Europe that will belble to contend with {
them. | {
" The Portuguese are in expeAation of a viGt t
from them through the territories of Spain. In |,
consequence, the greatest exertions arf making to
raise an army of 50,000 men, to march to their
frontiers, by the firit of Odtober."
Extradt of a letter from a mercantile house in Lif-]
bon, to his friend in this city, dated the Ilthl
of August.
"The political situAtion of Portugal becomes I
■veiy critical, finee it is no longer to be doubted,
that WAR will immediately take place been Eng
land and Spa n. A Spanifti fqiudron failed on the 1
4th inilant from Cadiz, in company with the French
■vessels of war which have been so long there, ugder
the command of admiral Richery. It is said also, i
that the French have demanded a passage through j
Spain, for 50,000 troops, nominally destined against j
Gibraltar."

A Searcher after Truth, in this age of Phari- j
faical delusion, enjoys with great delight, even the I
'v. breathings of philanthropy ; btjt viewing as be docs
. the very marrow thereof in the resignation and ad
dress of our beloved President, he is anxious that
it may be retained: and to this end he thinks it I
worthy the pttionage, yea, to be the patron of the
the human race .: and that they may ever have it
annic ; n their eye, it would be weH (next to the Bible)
ILES a copy thereof was framed and placed over the man-
tlf-piece of every family, as not only a true but
' **' ufeful picture, and by way of the
Declaration of Independence, and the Constitution
of the Uniied States, ought to be its supporters.

I QUEBEC, September 8, j
g j On Tuesday lad, about four o'clock in the as- I I
lc J ternoon, a dreadful 6re broke out, in, a stable be- 'd t
I longing to the Honorable Thomas Dunn, in Saint I fron

J- I ten deftruflion to the greater part -«f the town, j pbei
I The wind blowing frt'ftv from ihe v.elt,, inftatuly ! f'tie

J flames to the adjacent houses on both fides of the j •

u-1 convent "of the Recolet's, at thelo.»er end of the | | ; ca
I street, »t lead two hundred yards from where it be- J
I gan. In a few minutes the loos and foire of the 1
