The tender of few Vice- made by the foregoing corps,
was received with that gratefulnefs and cordiality by
his excellency the lord In utenant as were adequate to
the nature and value of such an offtfo that it may
be truly said, thaf government and the volunteer ar
my seem to strive to outvie each other : the one in dis
playing forwardnefs of zealous attachment, the other
in expressing a due sense of their loyal favour.
We hear that no less than r6,c00 volunteers have
already offered their service to government : expreftes
upon express are hourly arriving with the mod spi
rited and loyal addresses ; we have no doubt but that
within a few days there will not be an association in
the kingdom that has not tendered its services. There
seems to be a mutual rivalry throughout the different
associations, not only which shall b foremoft in dis
playing its atachmen to government, but which shall
appear most dutiful and loyal in their refoiution of af
fiflance.

There was a fcandalotis report that none of the
northern corps had tendered their offers of assistance
to government and that it was their intention not to
offer any. Whencefoever this calumny may have iffy
ed, we are happy in assuring the public, that nothing
can be more maficioufly falfe. The associations of the
north, instead of being backward on this occasion,
have flepp^d forward with the most uncommon alacri
ty • instead of their addresses breathing a jealous or
difaffeHed spirit, they are animated with every ex
pression of the sincerest loyalty and the watmeft at
tachment to the present government.
What fatisfadion it must be to the lord lieutenant
to be able to represent to his majesty, that unanimous
fpririt, which at present aduates the whole king
dom to defend with their lives and fortunes the dignity
and honour of his crowd. Ireland ever conspicuous
for its loyalty to the Hanover family, exhibits at pre
sent such proofs of attachment to its Sovereign, as was
perhaps never before exhibited in any nation. The
whole people seem as one man possessed and impelled by
the fame spirit, and perfuing the fame end, the fafety
of the kingdom, and the glory of their Sovereign.
By an officer who left, general Greene's camp the 20th
tilt, we are informed, that our army flill lies at the
Roundo, arid the British at the quarter house, 5 miles
from Charleftown. That the assembly of the state of
South-Carolina, are re established and now setting
within 35 miles of Charleftown. This officer further
informs, that the Corke fleet had arrived, and that lord
Dunmore came passenger.
On Thursday last, a very valuable merchant mill
near this town, the property of major Thomas Proffer,
by some unknown accident took fire, and in a Short time
entirely consumed, with a considerable quantity of
grain.
Several vessels have lately arrived in this state from
St. Thomas's, amongst which is the Sloop Alephia,

BALTIMORE, January 11.
The legislature of Virginia, by a late law, have sus

" A few days ago, as a young child of Mr. Vincent
Wyley, near the Manor-chapel, was at play near a

as to fradure his Skull in a deplorable manner; and
what added to the calamity, the bones were beat in,
and so firmly fixed on the top of the brain, as to ren
der the extraction impracticable, without the operati
on of the trepan, which was next day performed by
