Blair M'Clenachan and in Patrick Meore, of the city of Philadelphia, merchants, ei trading under the firm of Blair M'<nachan and P. \ « Moon, and from Blair M'Clenachan in his separaTe . K capacity ; to which, by the laws of the land, all the ( ir joint as well as separate property of the said Gentle- 1 men, ie, and ought to be, liable. And whereas | it is clearly and fatisfaftorily ascertained, that mr. | Bletir M'Clenachan, of the said firm, has conveyed ; f< sway to mr. John H. Huflon, h-is foil-in law, to his e daughter, miss M'Clenachan, and to his son, Gorge M'Clenachan, several large and valuable reai estates, as well as confiderab'.e personal property, in the city and county of Philadelphia, in the county of Lancas ter, in the eounty of New-Castle on Delawtre, and elsewhere, with a view, as it is apprehended, to de feat the Creditors in the recovery of their just debts. — This is, therefore, to forewarn all pcrfons whomfo •ver, against the purchase from the said grantees, or «ith«r of them, of any portion of the said real or per ' fonal property, as the moil vigorous measures will without delay be taken to render the fame liable to j(h« just demands of the Creditors.

THE caution introduced into public prints, warning all pcrfons against purcbafing from the grantees of Blair M'Clenachan, any portion of the large, real and personal estates he conveyed away to fais fon-in law and to his children was the result of a deliberatioa had upon the fubjeft by a general and numerous meeting of the creditors as well of Blair M'Clenaehan and P Meore as of Blair M'Clena chan individually. It was no more than an execu tion of that trust confided in the fubferibers by those creditors: a step which it would have been a breach of .duty and honor in them to have omitterl. The very statement of the fadt therefore must dif pcl the imputation that it was either " precipitate or visdictive." It originated in a desire to secure the property of the debtor as a sand for the pay ment of his just debts. It was fanflioned by the •dvice of council as a measure necejfary to the fafety of the ceeditor3. If the advenil'ement has been injurious ta Mr. M'Clenachan he owes that injury to his (Twn unjuftiliable conduct, not to the fub feribers who have merely piibliflied the truth iB terms as mild as the fait would admit, and who mean to in*eftigate in a high court of justice the validity of thole purchases of which Mr. M'Cle nsehan so confidenily speaks. The fobicribsrs therefore are bound by a sense as duty to the creditors in general to repeat their caution against purchasing of those grantees or , either of them, and to extend 4 the terms of it to a purchase from any other persons (if such there be) * to whom Mr. M'Clenachan may have made finailar conveyances.
