Philadelphia, June IS, 1807.
His Britannic majesty's consul-general
for the middle and southern states of Amer
ica. having observed great inaccuracy in the
manner of preparing quarantine manifests
for goods shipped from hence, for the ports
of Great-ilritam, recommends to the mer-
chants engaged in that trade a particular at-
tention to the regulations heretofore pub-
lished.
The quarantine manifests are to be prov-
ed affirmati-vely or negatively, as to the
growth, produce or manufacture of the re-
spective articles, belore a magistral,; ae-
Curding to the forms prescribed and attested
by his majesty's consul, or where there is
no consul, by two known resident British
merchants. These manifests are, to be writ-
ten in words at length, and in continuity,
upon a separate paper, distinct from, any
documents from the customs, and totally
unconnected with any invoice, bill of lad-
ing, certificate or notarial attestation what-
soever. P. BOND.
Letters from Charleston and Norfolk,
mention that vessels are m demand at those
places to freight.
The papers of the brig Hero, of Nan-
tucket, taken by the French in the W. In-
dies, it is said, have been sent to France.
A Liverpool price-current, dated 30th of
April received at Boston quotes flour at 44s.
Appointment by the President of the United
States.
Jacob B. Clkment, esq. of Gloucester
County, New-Jersey, coimil for the United
States, for the Island of Porto Hico.
The Richmond Enquirer of the 18th,
says " The court have been occupied during
the last three days on the motion to obtain a
subpoena duces tecum, addressed to the pre-
sident of the United States."
The arrival of gen. Wilkinson at Rich-
mond is very fortunate, as the debate on the
above motion for procuring certain papers
had becomp very anima'ed, and the parties
evinced a high degree of warmth, Mr.
Martin in contending for their right to
these papers, exerted all his powers on be-
half of " his persecuted friend." He said,
" This is a peculiar case, sir. The presi-
dent has undertaken to prejudge rny client
by declaring that ' of his guilt there can
be ho doubt.' He has assumed to himself
the knowledge of the Supreme Being him-
self, and pretended to sea'ch the heart of
my highly respected friend. He has pro
claimed him a traitor in the face of that
country, which has rewarded him. He has
let slip the dogs of war ; the hell-hounds of
persecution to hunt down my friend. —And
would this president of the United States,
who has raised all this absurd clamor, pre-
tend to keep back the papers which are
wanted for this trial, where life itself is at
stake ? It is a sacred principle, that in all
such cases, the accused has a right to all the
evidence which is lrecessavy for his defence.
And wiioever withholds this information, is
substantially a murderer, and is so recorded
in the registers of Heaven !"
No decision was had at the last report on
this motion.
Gew. Wilkinson and Suite.—We con-
gratulate our country on the arrival of this
important character in our city. We rejoice
at this event, much on his own account ;
but still more in relation to his country and
to the cause of truth. We confidently
trust, that the veil ot mystery which has hi-
therto enshrouded so many of the transacti-
ons of the western country, is about to be
rent in twain ; and that every man concern-
ed will be seen for what he is. The eyes
of this country are fixed upon this interest-
ing drama ; and future times may rue or
bless the catastrophe which awaits it. But
whatever may be the consequence 1 f this
arduous trial, there is one great sentiment
which every honest heart will re-echo. May
mystery expire ; may the light of truth
beam upon us ; and may justice be faithful-
ly rendered to every man !
General Wilkinson arrived at Hampton
Roads on Wednesday the 10th, in the U.
S. schooner Ranger, from New-Orleans.
On passing the frigate Chesepeake, lying
in Hampton Roads, the Ranger fired a sa-
lute, which was returned by the frigate.
On his arrival at Hampton, gen. Wil-
kinson had the precaution to dispatch im-
mediately an express to the attorney fir the
U. S. in this city. He left Hampton at 4
o'clock on Wednesday, and arrived about
the same hour .on Thursday. The object
of this dispatch was to communicate the
general's arrival to Mr. Hay, and through
him to the court; and thus to prevent a pre-
mature discharge of the grand jury.
Gen. Wilkinson, arrived this morning in.
the stage from Hampton. He is accompa-
nied by his son, lieut. Murray, and servant ; ,
lieut. Gains, lieut. Smith, and Mr. Gra-'
ham and servant. Sergeant Dunbar, whose.
affidavit was lately put aside in court, and!
some other witnesses accompanied the ge-f
neral as far as Hampton, and came up in a]
pilot boat to this city.
G. W. left governor Claiborne at New-
Orleans. Richmond Enquirer, June 13.]
Gen Victor Lepold Berthier, chief of
the first corps of the French army and one
of the commanders of the Legion ot Honor,
died at Paris, on tire 24th March, after a
months illness.
On Thursday, the 4th instant, about 4
miles from the city of Schenectady, aside of
the Mohawk turnpike, sitting under a tree,
I discovered Petrus Groot, who was sup-
posed to have been slain in the Oriskena
battle, under general Herkimer, on the 6th
of August, in the year 1777. I immediate-
ly recognised him, and on conversing with
h.m he confessed himself to be the person
I took him to be, I thai HMttd hiuj to
j the nearest tavern, where T left Mm to he
sent to his children and brothers ; fr 'in
whence, however, he departed before day
the next morning, and ^ as seen in Albany
on Friday. His mental faculties are much
impaired, supposed to have been occasioned
by a wound of a tomahawk near the fore-
part of his head, thougjh he is at m st times
t derably rational. His head is bald ; the
circle or scar of the scalping-knife is plainly
to be seen 011 it, and a stab on the side of
his neck near his shoulder—Had a small
scar near his ancle—is a midde-sized man—
lias blue eyes, a long countenance, and
stoops much in the shoulder. He speaks
English, French, Dutch and Indian ; and
says he has been last prisoner among the
Indians north of Quebec—Had on an old
dark grey coat and old brownish panta-
loons—Has a large pack with him.—
He refused to go home, as one of his for-
mer neighbors whom he saw would not re-
cognize him, he was fearful his children
and brothers would not. He said he would
go to the governor's.—'Being at times de-
ranged, it is feared he will stray too faraway
for his friends to find him. He is of a ve-
ry respectable family and connections. A-
ny person who will take him up and bring
htm^o the subscriber, at Schenectady, shall
be well compensated for their care and trou-
ble, and will receive the sincere thanks of
his children and relatives, .and be the mean
of relieving the poor unfortunate man from
his distress, by restoring him to his family
and friends. ' JOHN SANDERS.
Schenectady, 8th June, 1807.
N. B. The printers in this and the
neighboring states are requested to give the
above a few insertions in their respective
papers, to aid in restoring a poor sufferer to
his childsen and friends; who has been 30
years a prisoner among the Indians. He
is now 63 years of age. He was a lieute-
nant in the militia at the time he was sup-
posed to have been slain.
The number of person* migrating to this
state during the last four weeks is esti-
mated at two hundred souls per day. The
streets of this to.vn are frequently crowded
with the carriages, carts and waggons of
moving families. While the great demand
for provisions has considerably raised the
price. C°m, which a as heretofore a drug
at 25, is now scarce at 50 cents per bushel,
and we are informed, that at some place-.-, or
the road from this to Meio district, it is
sold as high as a dollar and a half. A great-
er price is yet expected.
