^T^BE owners of the Paper Mill in
hi! IHartford, earnestly intreat the Ladies
fyo consider their distress on account of the
^Scarcity of RAGS. The business of Paper
fek ing and Printing is at an end if Rags
fo r e not to be had. On a former adverrrfe
|,ment the works were plentifully fupptied
gwirh this article, and the people were fpi
frited to save every Rag in their power.-—
^Their fpiric of late has greatly declined, and
^che ill effects of it will be soon and severely
^felt. The Newspaper must inevitably stop,
^or be reduced to a half sheet—The Schools
^wdi be effent ally affefted, and all writing
^bufinefs cease, unless the Ladies will exert
^themfelves and shew their patnoufm on this
tyccafion. ' Money is so funk in its credit,
^a^d the price of Rags so small, that the en
^couagement in this rtfpea is trifling; but
^the benefit accruing to the public, and the
^effential Service hereby done to the country,
|i[ is hoped will be prevailing arguments to
^aroufe their attention, and engage their
^fnendfhip in a matter of such necefficy, and
^fo intetefting to the people It is a thouf^od
tyiries to reduce the size of this paper at this
^critical moment, when the g^and.ft events
tyre turning up, and in a day of such anxious
Bexpectation,8 expectation, and when it often requires more
than a whole sheet to convey intelligence.

Wilmington, September 5, 1777
FROM every information of tie enemy's de
fig,, andfrern their movements it is raemVAfy
stoat their aim is, if poflible, to pfl'fs tbemfa'ver^
0, Philadelphia, That is, with them, a capitals
objeß ; it is what they left year drove to effeß^
but were happy disappointed. They made a Jeff
c&nd attempt at ibe^peni^g of this campaign
but after vast preparation and expence for th Q
pgrpofe, they abandoned their defax, and tota I,fl
evacuated the fefts. They are ro^ making ^
their last effort. Itfeems they frft intended iff
come up the Delaware, but, from the meafet&
t^ken against them in the river, judged tie e ter ^
prize that way too hazardous. At length theyj
have landed ore the eaflern (bore in Maryland, ands
advanced feme little way into the country ; ^^
the gen. thinks they will be agein dija,printed %|
their vie w's, fbould they ,ufo their design agvrff
Philadelphia on this route, .Their all is al flake
They will put the cortef on the event of a I%^
battle ; if they are overthrown, the, are utter ,^
undone—the war is at an end, N^ then is tb,
timefo° cur firenuous exertions ; ore bold ftr&f
will free the land from rapine, devaflotion ar %;
burnings, and female innocence from brutal fuTf
and violence. In every other quarter the Ante
rican arms have been rs late rapidly fuceefAl rt ^
great n^mErs of the enemy have fa^en in ta^ti ^
a*d &it greater numbers hove been taker. „t/erf }
The militia to the northward have fought with as
reflation that would have dore bar r to the at
deft fclAers ; they bravety taught and ^peredA,
ana glory attends them. Who cvi f rbear %:
imitate their nob e spirits ? Whs is there with $
eta ambition t« foare with them the app^fe of
their countrymen, and of all pefterity, as the be f
fenders of liberty, and preferwrs of peace era,
ba^pinefs es millions in the prefot and future 7
generations? L
Two years we have mainlined the war, and v
Juggled with difficulties innumerable; but they
p'ojpiß has fnee brightened, endear affairs ,tR
on a better face. New is the /me to reap t':e\
fruits of all cur toils aud dangers ; if we behave ,
like wn this third campaign will l* cur ladN
Ours is the main army ; to us our countrymen lock \
for proteflicn; the e;es of all America and Eu-f
rope are turned upon us, as on tbefe by wb^n the'
event of the war is to be determined ; and the ?
general a fares his countrymen end fellow folcitrsff
that be believes the critical, the important time
is at band, which demands their raft (piritedf
exertions in the field. f fc
Here glory waits to crown the brave —Perce .
freedom and happ^efs will be the rewards of vicA
tor, —Animate! by motives like these, /oldie's ,
fgf"% ™ ^e cause of innocence, humanity and;
justice, will never give way ; but with trndaua,
ted refelution pte/s on to corquef — And this t,,
general afures himfej is the part the American
forces, now in arms, will aft : amd thus aPirg,
he will ensure them fucccfs. $
