BRADFORD, the Committee of Conference, jLTerobkd at Plufburg'a. Toe Mowing- is the answer of the Com- mutee. Aitgujl 22, 1794. Ha vino in our co-Terence, at eonfiderable length itateilto you the grounds of that discontent which exiP.s in the minds of the people of this country, 2nd which Lias lately fhevvn ltfelf in of opposition to the excite law, you will contider us as waving any queltion with regard to the nature of those whether, treasonable, or amounting only to riot and breach of the peace of course a-t waving the queltion of the conttitutEonal power of the President to call upon the force of the Union to fupprefe them. It is our object as it is youis to compose the disturbance.

We are fatisfied that in fnbilanceyou luwe gone as far as we could cxpeft the Executive to go. It only remains to ascertain your propp lit ions more in de- tail, and to fay, what arrangements it may be in your power make with regard to convenience in colledting the revenue under the excise laws how far it may be confident with the public interefl: to prevent commencing prosecutions under those laws at a distance from the places where the delinquents relide; on what condition or cireumitance prosecutions for t'ie late violation of the laws lhall be fuipeuded that is to fay whether ok the individual keeping the peace, or on its being kept by the country in general; and alio with regard to the general amnesty, whether the claiming the benefit of it by an individual (hall depend on his own future conduit, or that of the whole community. We have already dated to you in conference that we are empowered to give you ho definitive answer with regard to the feufe of the people on the great of acceding to the law but that in our opinion, it is the interell ot the country to accede; and that we (hall make this report to the committee to whom we are to report, and state to them the reasons of our opinion, that so far as they may appenr to have weight they may be regarded by them. It will be our endeavor to conciliate, not only them, but the public mind in general to ou' sense on this fubjeft. For this jwrpofe we hope to be affilted by you in giving all that extent and preciiion, clearness and certainty to your propositions as may fatisfy the underftaudings and engage the aequielccnce of the peo- pie.

It is to be undetflpod that in acceding to the law, no inference is to be drawn, or conftruttion made that we will relinquiflia constitutional opposition, but that we will invariably, undeviatingly and constantly pursue every legal means and measure of a repeal of the law in question. As we are dilpofed with you to have the sense of the people taken on the of our conference as speedily as may be, with that view we have resolved to call the committee to whom our report is to be made, at an earlier day than had been appointed, to wit, to meet on Thursday the 28th inft. but have not thought ourfelvcs juftifiable in changing the place, to wit, Redftone Old Fort on the Monongahela.

Emmonds, of a lingering illness. A daughter of Mr. Newman Trowbridge, 8, Worms. As the Committee consider their honor concerned in the faithftilnefsof their reports, they have frit a degree of tification to hear that the truth of their certificates, have, in some instances, been scrupled and as they are convinced that a uniform relation of the firrrple truth, is the heft mode of corredting the errors of vagiie and unguarded rumours, they have only to allure the public, That in preparing their reports of deaths, their own recollection has always been corrected by the books of the Sexton and they are confident that not a fmgle death in the city has efcap-1 ed their notice. They are happy further to certify, that the Scarlet Fever, which was the prevailing epidemic at the time they began their reports, is now, they hope, nearly extiniS they do not know of a single patient sick of that the city.
