Hop, well the Cornelias Vanwyck who opened the letter lives at Kifhkill. This of itfelf is fufficient grounds for ftrong fufpicion, but when corroborated by the circmnftance of a mifrrprefentation of its contents puts the matter beyond a doubt. If it was done through a mif. take, would hir not have ailed the can did and honorable parr, to have called on me and informed me cf it, and not neighten his guilt by mifreprefenting what it contained. If he has not circu lated fuch reports, it is undoubtedly his duty to come forward and contradict them, and endeavour to expofc thofe who have fuch admirable inventions The letter contains nothing but that I am willing Mr.

When 1 read them pieces I very enriou to kuow who wrote them.

Some of the writers iecmed to be ia a great psflSoa.

But there wat one who lined himfelf Tlrmtr of Paw.

The Vieiie lilt 1 believe are all good men, for I have afked a grtattaany people, about them, and I find all that this man who figni him feif aarmer has fald about, them, was not true. This looks fomething more like tricks again. I dont like to fee men abufed fo for nothing, and I have a mind id try tbem for they cant do muih worle than the old ones did, befldes they ay the old ones have done, and tbey are afiuid will con tinue to do juft at General Schuyler wants to have them and I dont like him, for 1 believe be Is a Cunning' defining man, and wants to trick us out of our liberties. But Mr. Power, there is awonderlulodd notification ia your loft paper about a faftory let op in the northern part of this county for making electioneering falfehoodt.

I I thought this mnft be a curious kind of bnfiotfi, and 1 wanted to know very much where it wat carried on. On enquiry found tVe faftory was at Redhoftk in a large white houfe near Swan's tavern and that the Cuff was made up into puis, fo I concluded it mult be fomething like iloflors bulinefi, and they do fay that the chief worktqan is Verr expert both in making and difpofing of the pith, and there no danger of his being oat, alt ho he diflributes on an average about 3 a day. This mo.t be a very ingeniont man, and if he could but get nominated, I don't know but Jiejmlght get in the AfTemblynow, for be wouldN lay good pTanTabont fortifyftijr New TTork now there is roming war. as fome of tbe Yorkers think.
