WHEREAS very large and lieary debts ?re juftlv
due and Owing from mefl'rs. Blair M'Clcnttchan an"d
Patrick Mtore, of the city of Philadelphia, merchants,
trading under the firm of Blair M'Slenaelxm ami P.
Moore, and from Blair irl'Clenachan in his feparat*
capacity ; to whisb, by the laws of the land, all the
joint as wejl as separate property of the said, Gentle
men, is, and ought to be, liable. And whereas
it is clearly and fetisfa&orily afcertaineu, that inr.
Blmr M'Clenacban, of the said firm, has conveyed
away to mr. "John H. Hujlon, his 'fon-in law, to J>is
daughter, aiifs M'Chnacban, and to his son, Setrge
M'Clenachnn, several large and valuable real estates,
as well as eonfiderable personal property, in the city
and county of Philadtlphia, in the county of Lancas
ter, in the eounty of New-Castle' on Dsrlaware, and
slfewhere, with a view, es it is apprehended, to de
feat the Creditors in the recovery of their just debts.—<
This is, therefore, to forewarn all perfoas whamfa
ever, against the pnrehefe from the f>id" grs&tees, or
either »f them, of any portion of the laid real or per
sonal property, as the most vigorous «iea fores will
withaut delay be taken ta render tie fame liable to
the just demands of the Creditors.

TO THE PUBLIC.
THE caution introduced into the public prints,
warning all pe/foHS 'aqainft pun-hating from the
grantees »f Blair M'Gieuachan, any portion of the
large, r«al and personal estates he conveyed away to
hit fon-in law and to his children was the result of
a deliberation had upon the fubjeft by a general and
numerous meeting of the creditors as well of Blair
M'Cleaachan and P. Moore as ef Blair M'Clena
chan individually. It was 110 mere than an execu
tion of that trust confcd«d in the? fubferibers by
those creditors: a step which it would have been a
btaech of duty and honor in them to have emitter!.
The very ftatcment of the fat* therefore mall djf
pcl the imputation that it was either " precipitate
or vindictive." It originated in a dcfirc to feeure
the property of the debtor as a fund far the pay
ment of his just debts. It was fanAioned by the
advice otcoancil as a measure neeejary to the fafety
of the creditors. Jf the advertisement has been
injurious to Mr. M'Clenachan he owes that injury
to his own unjafliliable conduct, not to the fnb
fctibers who lujre merely published the truth in
terms as mild i?s the faSt would admit, and who
mean to investigate in a high court of justice the
validity of thole pnr'chafes of which Mr. M'Clc
■achan so confidently speaks.
The fubferibers therefore are bound by a sense
of dnty to the creditors in general to repeat their
eaution against puroJ>afing of those grantees or
either of them, and to extend the terms of it to a
pnrehafe from any other perfous (if such there be)
to whom Mr. M'Clcnachan may have made similar
cenveyannes.

PROSPECT-HILL,
Situated within one quarter of a mile from the Bra.idywine
Mills, andc.alf a mile from ihe borough of Wilmington,
dwelling house is built of (tone, two dories' high,
genteelv fini.'hed, and contain,four handfime rooms 00
a an entry, with capital garrets, znd convenient
cellara, It .is gen cully thought to command the mofta
grceable profpeS of the Delaware, from,the fomce of that
liver to the Capes. This profpeft ia greatly rmbclli.W by
a full view of a va(t body of meadow, through which the
Chnlliana and Brandywine creeks are feeri winding in beau
tiful meanders. Near ihe house are a Kiletten, a fpaeinua
hone liable and hay loft, a barn, a carriage house, rpiik
ftoufe, &c. and a well of as puifc water as any on the conti
nent. The garden contains an acre and quarter of land, a
bounding with fruit, and particularly with peach trees, of
the very bed kind, brought from Maryland, and in full Hear,
ing. There is, moreover, on the place, a young, jpole
orchard begining to bear, and lcverai old ireesthat produce
abundantly, besides cherry and other ornamental trees, in
great numbers. The farm confills of near Gxty acres of land,
ot good quality, aud clear of incumbrances, except taxed,
twenty of which ire now in excellent clover and timothy,
and ten more will be ready tor lowing next fpriiig. A i«-
fider.ee of nearly 8 years has convinced the fubferiber that
the ftuation is remarkably healthy. The groat poll lond
from Philadelphia to the Southward runs within Seventy
yards of ihe house. In a word, the beamirs and conveni
ence of this situation cannot be enumerated in an advcrtile
ment, and when examined, will probably command the at
tention of any pei son who is desirous of living at one of the
most elegant country feats on the continent. The pur-ehafer
may enter on the prcmifts nestfpring, or perhaps, thin fall,
if application be immediately made to Diclor NICHOLAS
