Capn. Moore of the Delaware revenue cutter has resigned. There are three candidates viz. Ez. H. Teel recommended by Collector Mr Lane Ch. Beñet by late Govr. Hall Joseph Sawyer by Peter Muhlenberg & others I incline in favour of the last, because he has been six years first mate of the cutter, and Mr Rodney who had recommended the present captain (Moore) told me that even at that time he would...

The Comptroller, from the materials in his possession, judged that the ruble could not be worth less than 44 cents and gave instructions accordingly.
