abstract
{"value"=>"Congress has lately removed to this place; the causes of this will probably be published shortly; describes the mutiny at Philadelphia; Gen. St. Clair finally permitted the mutineers to appoint some commissioned officers to state their grievances; Congress sent for troops and called for the assistance of the militia; the conduct of the State Executive was weak and disgusting; Congress therefore removed; he regrets that the offers of New York were not more acceptable; the mutineers have been intimidated; they have impeached two of their officers, Carbury [Henry Carberry?] and [John?] Sullivan, who immediately fled."}
