FOR THE. GAZETTE OF THE UNITED STATES. ADDRESS TO THE PUBLIC CREDITORS BY A FRIEND. T T is probable that many of you arc not fufficiently apprised ol *4 v "' lta 6". of > our own fiiuation, and that for want of judging rightly of it, and of your future profpe&s, you maybe tempted to part with your securities much below their true value, and coiilidciably below what it. is probable they will fell for in eight or nine monthsjrom this time. I o guardypu agamft an unnccelTary facrifice of your interest, by a precipitate sale, I willnow.ftateto you, in a plain and con cile way, what has been done for you to the course of the lad fci lion ol Congress, and what you may reasonably expect. Kffectual provision hos been made for aiiually paying you fix per ccnt. yearly, on two thirds of the principal of your djbt, that is, 4 per cent, on the whole amount of your principal. And at the end of ten years you are to receive fix per cent, yearly on the remaining third of your principal, that is, two per ccnt. more on the whole of your principal. And like effeSUal piov - " ccn ""de, lor adua/ty paying you three per cent, yeaily on whatever arrears of inte-eft may be due to you 011 vour princi pal. tor this interest you arc not even to wait to the end of a year, but you are to receive it, in quarter-yearly payments, that is to lay, one fourth part at the end of every three months • and ,t uto be paid to you,lot m new certificates, or paper money, but m aflual gold and Giver. ■To lecurc this to you, the duties which have been laid on goods imported, and on the tonnage offhips or »e.rel, (and which there ,s ev. ry reason from the experience we | to l i tVC W j' bc ru,Hc| cnt) are W,o you ti ! the whole of your debt .s d,(charged.

On Saturday last his Excellency the Governor and the Mayor and Aldermen of the city, dined with the President of the United States—The "relident informed the gentlemen of his inten tion to viflc Mount Vernon—and that he ffiould leave the city on the Monday following-he ex preiled the deep sense he had of the refpedful a;tention which the corporation in particular and the citizens in general had fhewrii him per -1011 ally, and as firft mngiflrate of the United States and added that it was with the utniofl regret that he ffiould quit a residence which had been rendered so agreeable to him Mrs. Washington appeared greatly aftecfted on the occauon.

The Governor, the Chief Jus tice, the Secretary at War, and Secretary of the 1 reafury embarked with the President. The CuiVom house barge, in which was a number of the officers of the cultoms, accompanied the President's barge to Powles' Hook. At the moment of embarkation a federal salute was fired from the battery. By the particular reque'ft of the President, the gentlemen of the corporation had not given pub lic notice of his intended departure on Monday; which prevented so general an attendance of the citizens as would have been desirous of pajinc him their refpecls 011 this intererting occasion.
