New-York, September 6. On Friday the 23d ult. as Capt. M'Clean (who arrived here Yesterday Se'nnight) came by Barnegat, he saw a Snow standing toward the Land, so near the Shore that he could not speak with her; he imagined she was in Danger of getting aground; and we hear, by an Egg Harbour Man, since arrived, that on Saturday Morning he saw the said Snow aground, about 100 Yards to the Southward of Barnegat Inlet, upon the Bar, about a Mile from the Shore: Her Gunwale was sunk very near to the Surface of the Water; and as the Winds have been easterly most of the Time since, and a large Swell, she is probably beat to Pieces before this Time. Neither of the Vessels that saw her were able to get her any Assistance, or to give any particular Descrip- tion of her. She had, when she was seen aground, a Bur- gee Pendant at her Mast Head. As none of our Pilots choose to go so far to the Westward with an easterly Wind, we have not been able to find out what Vessel she is; but it is conjectured she is some stranger to this Coast.
A Person is wanted, that is well qualified to settle Mer- chant's Books and Accompts; such a one that can be any Ways recommended, may be sure of Employment for

Abstracts from the Minutes of the Council of Proprie- tors of the Eastern Division of New-Jersey.
March 29, 1759.
"Several Surveys of Rivers and Brooks were laid before the Board, which did not include a proper Quantity of Land on each or either Side thereof, which were ordered to be returned, but to prevent such Surveys being recorded for the Future, the Board ordered that no Survey of any Rivers or Brooks whatsoever, made in like Manner be re- turned without their express Leave."

"The Surveyor General informed the Board, that the Practice of taking up and returning small Slips of Cedar and other Swamps and Pieces of Land, is in his Opinion injurious to the Interest of the General Proprietors, as large Tracts and Quantities of Land thereby remain unlo- cated, and will also cause Confusion and Uncertainty in making future Surveys, and be thereby detrimental to People in General.
