Philadelphia; June 24.
The eastern papers received by yeflerday's post, in
form us, that the different parts in Maffathufetts are
again open for the reception of British flips and mer
chandize. —That the town of Lexington hadinftruHed
its representative in attembly to vote against the re
turn of any person who had left his country during
the war and joined the British forces. —That the Mas
sachusetts and New-Hampkire troops, inlifted for
the war, were expended to arrive in the firft mention
ed state about the middle of June. — That the flags of
nine different nations were flying in Boston harbour.—
Great numbers of vessels, from all parts, had arrived in
their ports.— The inhabitants of Beekman's precinft, in
the state of New-York, had resolved against the return
of those of their citizens who h^d joined the enemy
during the war.
Two companies of Penufylvania troops lately arrived
here by water from South-Carolina, and it is said the
remainder are fliordy expelled.—Tne lady of the
honourable major general Greene also arrived in the
vessel which brought those troops.
The last advices from the E^ft-Indies mention, that
by late augmentations, the fleets of France and Eng
land, amounted each to seventeen fail of the line, be
tides fifties and frigates—a more formidable naval force
than ever appeared before in that part of the world.
Within these two weeks past several corps of conti
nental troops have arrived in town, from different
parts, previous to their being difeharged in confeqaence
of the peace.
Since the 3d of May near 200 fail of vessels have
arrived at this port from abroad, most of which have
brought valuable cargoes.
The people in general, impressed with just ideas of
the utility of the five per c^nt. impost, regret its mis
carriage, and begin to experience the baleful effe&sof
a pernicious opposition. Had it been Faid, agreeable
to the Financier's plan, the duties which would have
arisen on foreign articles already imported, would have
produced a nandfome fund for a speedy diminution of
army debts; and the soldier's distress might have been
greatly alleviated by a generous payment, besides the
liquidation of his account, on receiving a difmiffion
from the service.
