ilic cotnmiffioncis of the town of-

of the commons thereof.
Mr. Sp(a* er Gentlemen of the
Houle 0/ Reprefentaixvts ,
I HAVE returned to your
branch, where it originated, a
b ,ll entitled “ an aft to author
jzc perfons poffeffmg lands ad
joining the Oconee river, to
creft mills, and to ral ' e d<4 , tr!S ln
the faid river under certain ro
itriaion s.” with my diffcnt
thereto.
Mv reafons are—That how
ever defirable the object contem
plated may be to the inhabitants
bordering on the Oconee, and
beneficial to the perfons holding
fixations proper to be advan
taged by it—At this moment
policy cries aloud againft its
operation—That enemy of Geor
,gia, and the United States,
Bowles is now in the Creek
nation taking every opportuni
ty to irritate the Indians, and
let them at war with us—lt is
reprefented, that our agent, Mr. ‘
Hawkins, is obliged to ufe every “
exertion and requires every Tup- ‘
port to refill his influence, which
is faid not to reft on private, but
on national grounds—A (ingle
dam carried acrofs the Oconee
at this time, and there is no li
mitation, would be a pleafingl
handle, for that man, to ftir up'
the Indians and bringthem down 1
on our defencelefs frontiers, and
it is a doubt if we fhould bejuf
tifkd under the treaty between
the United States and that nation
of Indians, and thus incur the
difpleafure of the United States,
and deflroy the prefent pleafing '
p'ofpcftof procuring the lands
over that river, in a period at no
fcreat diftance off— Befidcs that,
lit \\ould in all probability again
Icvive thofe arbitrary feenes be
tween the military, and our citi
pms, under the intercourfe law
I ich happily are at prefent dor
imam.

On Thurfday night, the 7th
inftant, an attempt was made to
rob the treafury in this place.
The perfons engaged in this bu
finv fs hdd nearly effedled their
wav into the office, by borir.g
holes in the door with an auger.
Being fiom fome caufe or other
alaimed, they retieatcd precipi
tate’y, and left behind them a
aow-bar, an augrp, an axe, and
a frre burning in the palfage
It is very affonifhing that the
flate houfe was not confumcd,
as part of the pl.«nk on which
the fire was placed, was nearly
reduced to a coal,

Suhfcribtrs who are indebted
for the Louifville Gazette, or for
any other printing done at this office ,
are requefled to come forward and
pay ut> their arrears. The terms
0/ the Gazettes are payable half
yearly ; but a great many have been
J o7 warded to feveral counties in the
Jlate , on a promife of remittance by
the fir [I opportune y —which mujl
have f nee canned, and others now
off r by conveyances, at this feefon ,
wh ch will no doubt be improved by
Jack gentlemen as a r e inclined to
pay. Ihe great expences incident
to an efiabhpiment fuck as a newf
paper, ought to be imprejjed on the
minds of the Sub/aibers. and in
duce them to di/iharge the amount
of their accounts with gnaier punc
tuality.
The Editor can certainly fay ,
that , in ejlabHJhing the Louifville
Gazette he was aftuated more ha
* s
defire to comply with the numerous
felicitations oj gentlemen in fevtral
parts of the Jlate, and a hope of
its proving advantageous to the coun
try, than by any prcfpcEl of gain
to himfelf ; the expences of the
bufmefs have hitherto very jar ex
ceeded the receipts from it.
While , therefore the Editor
retw ns hisJi cere and mfl grateful
thanks to thvfe who have betn pierfd
to favor him with their
and particularly to thofe whofe pay
ments in adian e have enabled him
in Jome meajure tv fupfort a credit)
