COLONEL Grant laid, he had served in America,
knew the Americans very well, was certain they
would not fight; they would never dare to face ar
English army, and they did not possess any df the
qualifications necessary to make a good soldier; he
repeated many of their common place expressions,
ridiculed ' their ethufiafni in religion, and drew a
disagreeable pi&ure of their manners and ways of
living.
Mr.. Cruger (born in New-York, and a Member
for Brifol) said, though interetted as he was in -the
business before the House, he fhbuld have remained
silent, had he not conceived that an honourable gen
tleman [Col. Grant] had thrown some undeserved
reflexions on the Americans, whichriie' should take
some notice of before he fat down,, but that he chose
firft to pay a little attention to the general buhnefs.
He observed, that the dispute between this country
and her colonies was of such importance to both, that
he hoped he should be forgiven if he said it would be
imprudent to enter into it, but with the utmost caution
and deliberation ; that we were men walking on the
brink of a precipice ; that there was danger in eveiy
Rep, and that in his opinion the salvation of this
country depended on the measures that were adopted
by the House this night. He then apprized the
Houle, that the settlement of the unhappy disputes
between England and America did not particularly
concern any let of men, whether in or out of admi
nistration ; that it related to all, was conne&ed with
all, and materially affe&ed the interests of the whole
Rate. He then ftrcngly recommended to all parties
to go into an examination of the question, free from
resentment or prejudice ; to confider it with impar
tiality, to difeufs it with temper, and to adopt with
unanimity and salutary preposition, rtgardlefs of the
man or party that may luggett it. He tuen endea
voured to vindicate the Americans, both as to their
courage and galantry, (in opposition to the assertions
gs the ' colonel) the latter he did with much good hu
mour and pleasantry, but 101 l his temper, in the for
mer, became personal, and was called to order. He
concluded with faying, that as many schemes of ac
commodation were talked of, he earnestly wished
that some one might be adopted which would tend to
restore the, harmony,and affection that once Tublifted
between Great-Biitain and the colonies, and produced
10 many invaluable blessings to both.
BRISTOL, March 4.
Monday lad arrived at 'his house in Falk street,
Henry Cruger, Esq; one of the worthy reprefenra
tives in Parliament. And it being the firft time of
.his return home since the late dicilion in his favour
of the Committee of the House of Commons, which
confirmed in his leat, his Constituents aflembled in
the most refpeXful manner,, to compliment him cn
the occasion. He was, met at Bath in the morning
by a great number of gentlemen in carriages, who
accompanied him to Kenyfham, where the principal
body of his friends were waiting to receive him. On
his arrival there; he left his own carriage, 'and as
cended a phaeton, with.four horses and two positions,
and being preceded by the gentlemen oh borfebttck,
the procession began in the following order : i. A
pair of colours. 2. Horferren,- two and two. 3.
A pair of colours. 4. A band of music. 5. A man
on horseback, with the cap of Liberty, on a pole
ornamented, 6. Several Gentlemen in leaflet! uni
form, two and two. 7. Mr. Cruger. 8. Ilie
carriages. The roads were lined with people, in
such a manner, as was never before ri erne,nibered.
As soon as they came to the city, their arrival was
proclaimed by. the firing of cannon, ringing of bells,
&c. The procession halted at the Council-house,
while Mr. Cruger got out of his carriage, and paid
his refpe&s to the Right Worfhipful the Mayor and
Aldermen ; after which he proceeded down Clare
itreet, (at the bottom of which was cre&ed an ele
gant triumphal arch, quite across the street, and on
the top were placed two flags, three ships; the King's
arms in the middle, and on either fide the arms of
our Members, under which was a long scroll, where
on was wrote in large capital letters 'CRUGER and
BURKE. The arch and the different columns were
decorated with beautiful Lettons; and on the whole
made a very grand appearance). From thence they
proceeded to his house in Park-street, where the
horsemen fell back on each fide, and Mr. Cruger was
set down at his own .door; who, after politely thank
ing his friends for the great honor they had that day
done him, retired, and the procession ended.---He
dined about fix o'clock, at the Affemby-room, with
several of his friends, and the evening, was concluded
with the utmost harmony.
NEW-YOR K, May I.
Wednesday last arrived the Brig Lucinda, Capt.
Squire, and Sloop Mary,Capt. Helmes, from the Coast
of Brazil, with 370 Barrels of Oyl each ; the latter
belongs to the United Whaling Company of this
Place.
We hear there are Letters in this Town, from
Connecticut, which fay, That the Number of Men
lately affcmbled at Boston, including those from
Connecticut and Rhode-lfland, amounted to 60,000;
that they are mostly returned to their relpe&ive
Homes, leaving an Army of about 15,000 to watch
General Gage's Motions, who, we are told, has
given the Inhabitants of Bohen i trillion to leave
the Town, on Condition tbyj,ft ureir Arms behind
them; that two Frigates, ana three General Officers
were arrived at Boston from England, and a large
Number of Troops hourly expe&ed; and both
General Gage and the Inhabitants of Boston, had
sent Expresses to Gi^at-Britain with Accounts of the
late Action at Lexington and Concord.
We are well allured, that the Report of the Troops
and Inhabitants of Marfhfield being cut of, is with
out Foundation, they having all got fafe into Boston.
We still seem to be in great Sufpence' about our
Accounts from Boston, the Authenticity of part of
them being doubtful ; however we make not the least
doubt there has been a smart Engagement between
the King's Troops and the Provincials, in which we
hear the former has loft 302 Men, killed, wounded,
and taken Prisoners, and the latter 37; but we do
not learn there was any General Officer loft on either
Side; and the regular Post being now flopped, bet
ween this Place and Boston, 'tis probable we will
remain somewhat longer in the Dark concerning this
very disagreeable, unhappy and melancholly Tranf
a&ion.
A Letter from Boston, dated last Monday, and
received finte writing the above Paragraphs, fays,
“ The Communication between this Town and
Country is entirely flopped up, and not a Soul per
mitted to go in or out without a Pass. This Day the
Governor has disarmed all the Inhabitants, after
giving them his Word and Honor that the Soldiers
Should not molest nor plunder them. Cambridge is
the Head Quarters of the Provincials, and they are
commanded by General : They are entrench
ing themselves at Roxbury, and erecting Batteries to
play on qur Lines."

rT"'HE Committee having taken into consideration the

each Ward, and two of this Committee, or any two of
the four; and that at the said Electrons the Votes of the
[Freemen and Freeholders, be taken on the following
jO^eftions, viz. Whether such New Committee shall be
constituted ; and if Yea, of whom it shall consist. And
this Cemmitteeis further unanimously of Opinion, That
at the present alarming Junffure, it is highly aivifeable'
'that a Provincial Congress be immediately furnmoned ;
and that it be recommended to the Freeholders and Free-"
men of this City and County, to cboofe at the fame Time
that they vote for the New Committee aforefaid, Twen
ty Deputies to represent them at the said Congress; and
that a Letter be forthwith prepared and dispatched toalf

think all domestic ftfife, paper wap and every thing}

instantly to cease, and be buried in oblivion; arid if we
have any ftrife, letit be only to profnote the public good

but likewise of every other species of anim,ofity 'tliat may•
