The New Hampshire Gazette And General Advertiser

PORTSMOUTH, Dec. 12.

It is with real pleasure that we can announce the sentiments of his Excellency, President SULLIVAN, to be perfectly federal. He has been heard to express himself in nearly the following terms, "That although he did not doubt New-Hampshire singly considered, might have framed a better constitution for themselves, yet when the whole of the thirteen states were considered; that it was to unite them, jarring in interests, in politics and prejudices, he was bold to say, It was one of the best Systems of government that ever was devised; and that all the objections which have been raised against it are no more than what might be brought against any form of government whatever."

Yesterday the honorable General Court convened together in the State House in this town, there being a quorum they proceeded to business, ---the first matter submitted to their deliberations was the proceedings of the Grand Federal Convention, when they voted unanimously for a convention,--time and place not appointed when this paper was put to press.
