CAUTION.
WHEREAS very large and heavy debts are juftfy
#lue, and owing from messrs. Blair M'Clenachan and
Patrick Maore, of the city of Philadelphia, merchants,
tradiae under the firm of Blair M'Slenaeban and P.
■Moore, and from Blair M'Clenachan in his separate
capacity ; to which, by the laws of the land, all the
joint as well as separate property of the said Gentle
men, is, and ought to.be, liable. And whereas
it it clearly and tatisfa&orily ascertained, thai mr.
Blair M'Clenachan, of the {aid firm, has conveyed
away to mr. John H. Hujlon, his son-in-law, to his j
daughter, miss M'Clenachan, and to his fen, George
M'Clenachan, several large and valuable real estates,
as well at considerable perfocal property, in the eity
and county of Philadelphia, in the county of Lancaf
tef, i* the countv of New-Castle on Delaware, and
clfewhere, 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 peffons whomfo
«ver, against the purchase from the said grantees, or
either ef them, of any portion of the said real or per
ianal property, as the molt vigorous measures will
withsut delay be taken te render the fame liable to
the jvfit demands of the Creditors.
By order of the Creditors.

TO THE PUBLIC.
THE caution introduced into the public prints,
warning all petfons agaiafl purrhafwg from the
grantee* of Blair M'Clenachaii, any portion of the
large, real and personal estates he conveyed away to
his foil-in law and to hi* children was the result of
a deliberation had upon the fubjeift by a general and
numerous meeting of the creditors as well of Blair
M'Cleoachan and P Moore as 01 Blair M'Clsna
chan individually. It was no more than an execu
tion of that trust confidod in the fubferibers by
thofc creditors : a step which it would have been a
breach of dnty and honor in them to have omitterl.
The very ftalement of the fact therefore mart dis
pel the imputation that it was either " precipitate
or vindiflive." it originated in a desire to secure
the property of the debtor as a fund for the pay
went of his just debts. It was fan&ioned by the
adviee of council as a measure nccejary to the falety
of the creditors. If the advertilcment has been
injurious to Mr. M'Clenachan he owes that injury
to his own unjuftiliable conduct, not to the lub
fciibers who have merely publilhed the truth iB
terms as mild as the {*& would admit, and who
Siean ro invefligate in a high court of justice the
■validity of thole purchases of whieh Mr. M'Cle
aachan so confidently speaks.
The fobfcnbers therefore are bound by a sense
if duty to the erediiors in general to repeat their
laittion against purehafing of those grantees or
cither of them, and to extend the terms of it ta a
purchase from, any other perfous (;f fueli there be)
to whom Mr. M'Clenachan may have made similar
coaveyances.

A LEASE for /even \ears 9 from the 2 $tb March next, in that
• capital and beautiful FARAI % called
PROSPEG T-H I L L,
' Situated within one quarter of a milfc'from the Brandywine
5 Mills, and halt a mile from the borough of Wilmington.
> 'T'HE* dwelling house is built of stone, two (lories hi 1,
* gentefly finifhed, and contains four handfrme rooms, on
a floor, beftdes an entry, with capital garrets, and convenient
cellars It is geneially thought to command the most a*
> greeabje profpeft of the Delaware, from the source of that
9 livei to the Capes. This profpeft ia greatly en.billifhcd by
3 a full view of a vast body ol meadow, through which the -
; Omftiana and Brandy wine creeks are feed winding ir. beau
d tiful meanders. Near the house are a Kitchen, a fpacioui
e hone Aable and hay loft, a barn, a carriage house, mifk-
U ftoufe, &c. and a well of as puie water as any on the conti
,c nent. The garden contains an acre and quarter of land, a
n bounding with fruit, and particularly with peach trees, of
the very befl kind, brought from Maryland, and in full bear
ing. There is, moreover, on the place, a you'.r, apple
orchard begining to bear, and several old tree« that produce
abundantly, besides cherry and other ornamental trees, in
great numbers. The farm consists of near sixty acres of land,,
of good quality, and clear of incumbrance*, except taxei,
twenty'of which are now in excellent clover and timothy,
[e and ten more will be ready for lowing next fpri»g. A re
fidenee of nearly 8 years has convinced the fubferiber that
IC the fnnation is remarkably healthy. The great post road
from Philadelphia to the Southward runs wjihin seventy
T yards of the house. In a word, the beauties and eonveni
, ence of this situation cannot be enumerated in an advertise
ment, and when examined, will probably command the at- I
tention of any person who isdefirous of living at one qntkc
1 ' most elegant country feats on the continent. The purehafer
