The Rhode Island American, And General Advertiser

It appears that the President of the Farmer's Bank in Bucks County, was concerned in the conspiracy to destroy the sloop Norfolk, and defraud the underwriters, and the moment the fact was known in Philadelphia, the Banks in that city despatched expresses to the Bank for the monies due them. A run was thus created, and the doors of the Bank were closed for a time. The President, however, has been removed, and the Bank is considered "safe and sound."

Dennis Scull, the author of the letter to the Captain of the sloop Norfolk, and one of the persons charged with intending to defraud the underwriters, has been apprehended, and is now in jail in Philadelphia.
