CAUTION.
WHERF.AS a combination of men in this
county have undertaken to enrich th«m
felves.by fabricating titles to fundr/ valuable tract*
of land, the property of gentlemen lining in New _
York, Philadelphia, Lordon andtaris, for which
trails of land large fumi of money have been paid
n to those fraudulent men, by innocent purchasers
It i» therefore ju(l that public information should
be given, to the end, that the injured snay seek re
- dress while the men have property, and are to b$
found. Those who have be«n discovered are Tru- ,
man Haarifon, Joseph Witsomb, said notv to rc
fide in the county of Saratoga ; Thomas Kelly and
several othert who go under fiilitioi s names. It is
supposed that the lands offered fc r sale on those fa
bricated titles, are at least worth fifty thousand
'* dollars. Such as we have adlual knowledge of are
as follows : Lots No. II and 11, Otfego patent,
thousand acres each, the atftual property of William
Dellwyn, now of London ; lots No. 58 and 64,
fame patent, thousand acres each, the property of
at Mr. Chaumont, now of Paris, and James Averitl
b- and others, ot this State. There is some grounds
id t0 fuppofc that the lands of Richajd Wells and
d- Charles Wharton, of Philadelphia, are under their
c, management. —The Printers will do well to give
b- this a place in their papers, as well to caution the
th public against purchasing those lands, as also to de
n- prive those men »n future from mipofujg on iddivi
be duifs, which their education and addrels have en
°f abled them to do heretofore. Witcomb has been
»e a (hopkeeper of some note in this eourrtry.

Higgins' Specific
FOR TUB
PREVENTION AND CURE OF THE
YELLOW FEVER.
EVER since this difeale made such ravages in this
i city and New-York, the author has turned his
attention to its caufet and cure.—The relult of his
enquiries has convinced him that the reason why so
few persons recover from its attacks, are from it»
not being well underload, and the consequent
wrong method taken to cure it. He is persuaded
that the exceflive bleedigns and mercurial reatment
of the Faculty is highly injurious, and that the on
ly rational mode of treatment is hy the use of proper
acids. Convinced of this he offers his Specific as a
certain remedy, if ufeJ according to the dirc&ions.
