NEW-YORK, September 27.
On Friday the 17th Instant at Morris Town in East New Jersey, was executed, David Reynolds, a Native of Ireland, about 32 years of age, for counterfeiting the money Bills of Credit of that Colony. He arrived there about ten Years ago. and chiefly followed the farming business, till getting acquainted with one Rosecrans (executed some time ago for the like Crime, but without declaring his Accomplices) he was by him led into the Scheme of making and passing counterfeit Money; after the Execution of Rosecrans, Reynolds accidentally met with Capt. Richardson (of Philadelphia, who is fled) and

getting acquainted with each other's Characters, was by him introduced to Ford, Haynes, Cooper, Budd, King, and the rest of the Gang. Ford the Principal, termed by the Rest, the Treasurer of the three Provinces, had coun- terfeited the Money Bills of New York, New-Jersey, and Pennsylvania, in so Masterly a manner as not to be dis- tinguished from the true Bills without the nicest Inspec- tion, and also several of the Gold and Silver Coins cur- rent in the British Colonies: and in passing these, Rey- nolds and the Rest of the Accomplices continued, till Ford and King were apprehended and imprisoned in Morris County Gaol, from whence they soon after made their escape, as mentioned in the Papers. One of the Gang being convicted of aiding them in their Escape and other high Misdemeanors, to mitigate the Punishment, made some Confessions tending to the Discovery of the Rest, which alarmed another, who made an ample confession of the whole, in Consequence of which Reynolds, Haynes, Cooper, and Budd, were tried, confessed their Guilt, and were condemned to be hanged. Their Execution was ordered to be on the 17th Instant; before the Time, Budd and Haynes were respited for a Month, but Reynolds and Cooper were ordered to prepare for Execution at the Time appointed. A few Minutes before the Time, Cooper confessed himself privy to the Robbery of the Treasury at Amboy, and that he received Three Hundred Pounds of the Money; on which he also was respited till he should make further Discoveries. Reynolds was therefore ordered for Execution alone, at which he seemed much affected and burst into Tears, but thro' the Assistance of a Minister who attended him, he grew Calm, and resigned to his Fate. His Behaviour during his Confinement and after his Sentence, was penitent and submissive; he shewed a proper Sensibility of his un-

happy Situation, and earnestly exhorted his Companions in Guilt, to a sincere Repentance. On the fatal Day, he took an affecting Leave of them; and they all discovered the most lively Expressions of that Distress to which their Crimes and Follies had reduced them, which drew Tears from the Eyes of the Spectators. At the Place of Execution, Reynolds sung and prayed very earnestly, and in a short but pathetic Speech, warned the People to avoid the Vices that had undone him, and earnestly re- quested them not to reflect on his innocent Wife and helpless Infants.
Cooper confessed that he was privy to the robbery of the Treasury at Amboy, and received 3001. of the Money, that it was concerted by Ford and perpetrated by him and three Soldiers then quartered there; that the Plan was, first to attempt to carry off the Iron Chest, if that fail'd, next to take the Key from Mr. Skinner's Bed- room, and to kill him or any Person who should discover them; and that if afterwards any of them should be sus- pected and convicted, they were to turn King's Evidence and accuse Mr. Skinner as being the only Accomplice with them. When some of them were shocked at this Proposal as thereby an innocent Person might lose his Life; Ford replied, no, damn him, he will only be con- demned, he has Friends enough to save him from the Gallozes. That after breaking into the Treasurer's Office adjoining to his Bed Room, they attempted to carry off the Chest, but finding it difficult, set it down again, and breaking open a Desk in the Room, in hopes to find Money, they therein found an old Key to the Money Chest, which was rusty and thought unfit for Use (the Key then used being in Mr. Skinner's Bed Room) with this old Key, they opened the Iron Chest, and thereby the Lives that would have been exposed by their Search for

There is about seven acres of fresh meadow, and as much more may be made at a very little expense. This farm is a very good soil. and is as pleasantly situated as any farm along Passaick River, and if divided into two lots, may be made two as agreeable country seats as can be desired.

THE GRIST MILL, SAW MILL and PLANTA- TION, late the property of JOHN BAINBRIDGE, situated upon Rocky Brook, in the township of Windsor, county of Middlesex, and province of New-Jersey. The plan- tation contains about 56 acres of excellent land, on which are erected, besides the mills, two good frame dwelling houses, a blacksmith's shop, store houses, &c. The grist mill is in good order, has two pair of stones, one of them French burr, and stands upon as fine a stream as any in the province, for in the driest season, it was never known to fail; and being in the heart of a fine wheat country. it has every advantage for carrying on the business exten- sively. The saw mill is likewise in good order. This stand is also one of the best in the province for a store, one having been kept there for many years past; and as it lays about midway between Philadelphia and New- York, the communication to both these places (the stages from Burlington and Bordentown going twice a week) renders the transportation of goods to and from either of them extremely convenient and at a small expence.
