as necessity will juftify. We possessed ourselves of
Crown-Point and Ticonderoga.' Yet give us leave,
mod Solemnly to assure you, that we have not yet
loft fight of the obje& we have ever had in view ; a
reconciliation with you on constitutional principles ;
and a restoration of that friendly intercourse, which,
to the advantage of bo'h, we till lately maintained.
The inhabitants of this country apply themselves
chiefly to agriculture and commerce.- As their
• fafhipns and manners are similar to yours ; your
markets must afford them the conveniencies and
luxuries for which they exchange the produce of
their labours. The wealth of this extended continent
centers with you ; and our trade is so regulated as to
be subservient, only to your interelf. You are too
reasonable to expe& that by taxes (in addition to this)
we Should contribute to your expence, to believe
after diverting the fountain that the dreams can flow
with unabated force.
It has been said that we refufe to submit to the
reftriaionson our commerce. From whence is this
inference drawn? Not from our words, we having
repeatedly declared the contrary, and we again
profefs our submission to the several acts of trade and
navigation passed before the year 1763, trusting
nevertheless in the equity and justice of Parliament,
that such of them as upon cool and impartial con
sideration, Shall appear to have imposed unnecessary
or grievous reftridtions, will, at some happier period,
be repealed or altered. And we cheerfully content
to the operation of such a&s of the British Parliament
as Shall be restrained to the regulation of our external
commerce for the purpose of Securing the commercial
advantages of the whole empire to the Mother
country, and the commercial benefits of its refpe&ive
members, excluding every idea of taxation internal
or external, for railing a revenue on the fubjeffs in
America without their consent. -

they descend to this unworthy talk, will their swords
retain their edge, their arms their accustomed vigor ?
-- Britons can never become the infouments of bp

alone they are invincible,-
Our enemies charge us with sedition: In what
does it contift ? In our refufal to submit to unwar
rantable a&s of injustice and cruelty? if so, shew us
a period in your biftory, in which you have not been
equally seditious?
We ate aceufed of aiming at Independence; but
how is this accusation supported ? By the allegations
of your ministers, not by our aliens. Abused,

to obtain redress ? We have carried our dutiful
petitions to the throne ;---we have applied to your
jultice for relief, we have retrenched our luxury and
withheld our trade.

exists, why for ages has it ceased to operate ? Why
at this time is it called into a&ion ? Can no reason
be assigned for this conduct? Or muff it be resolved

fleets could destroy our towns, and ravage our fea^

moment, to men whole bosoms glow with the ardor
of liberty---We can retire beyond the reach of your
navy, and without any sensible diminution of the
necessaries of life, enjoy a luxury which from that
period you will want : —THE LUXURY OF
BEING FREE.

ceased to protest, for what were we to compenSate ?
What has been the success of our endeavours ?
The clemency ofour sovereign is unhappily diverted ;
our petitions are treated with indignity ; our prayers
answered by insults. Our application to you remains
unnoticed, and leaves us the melancholy apprehension
of your wanting either the will, or the powers, to
aflift us.
who are the rivals of your grandeur I When your
troops were few and defencelefs, did we take advan
tage of their diftrel's and expel them our towns? Or
have we permitted them to fortify, to receive new aid
and to acquire additional Strength ?
Let not your enemies and ours persuade you, that
in this we were influenced by fear or any other
unworthy motive. The lives of Britons are Still
dear to us.—-They are the Children of our Parents,
an uninterrupted intercourse of mutual benefits had
k tit the bonds of fi iendfhip.---When hostilities were
commenced, when on a late occasion we were wan
tonly attacked by your troops, though we repelled
their' affaults„and returned their blows, yet we
lamented the wounds they obliged us to give ; nor
have- we yet learned to rejoice at a vi&ory over
Englishmen.
As we wifli not to colour our a&ions, or disguise
our thoughts ; we shall, in the Simple language of
truth, avow the measures we have purlued, the
motives upon which we have a&ed, and our future
designs.
When our late petition to the throne produced no
other effect than frefh injuries, and votes of your
legislature, calculated to juftify every severity; when
your fleets and your armies, were prepared to wrtff
from us our property, to rob us of our liberties or
our lives ; when the hostile attempts of General
Gage evinced his designs, we levied armies for our
security and defence; when the powers veiled in the
governor of Canada, gave us reason to apprehend
danger from that quarter ; and we had frequent
intimations, that a cruel, and savage enemy was to be
let lose upon the defencelefs inhabitants of pur fron-
Even under these circumstances, what measures
have we taken that betray a desire of Independence ?
Have we called in the aid of those foreign powers,
It is alledged that we contribute nothing to the
common defence; to this we answer that the advan
tages which Great-Britain receives from the mono
poly of our trade, far exceeds our proportion of the
expence necessary for that purpose. But should these
advantages be inadequate th reto, let the rettriaions
on our trade be removed, and we will cheerfully
contribute such proportion when constitutionally
required.
Itisa fundamental principle of the British consti
tution, that every man should have at least a repre
sentative Share in the formation of those laws by
which he isbound. Were it otherwise, the regulation
of our internal police by a British Parliament, who
are, and ever will be, unacquainted with our local
circumstances, prult be always inconvenient, and
frequently oppressive, working our wrong, without
yielding any possible advantage to you.
A plan of accommodation (as it has been abfufdly
called) has been propoled' by your ministers to our
refpe&ive Affemblie,. Were this proposal free from
every other objection, but that which arises from the
time of the offer, it would not be unexceptionable.
Can men deliberate with the bayonet at their bread ?
Can they treat with freedom while their towns are
lacked ; when daily instances of injustice, and
oppression, disturb the flower operations of reason ?
If this proposal is really such as you Should offer,.
and we accept, why was it delayed till the nation was
put to ulelels expence, and we were reduced to our
present melancholy situation ?—lf it holds forth
nothing, why was it pfopofed, unless indeed to
deceive you into a belief that we we e unwilling to.
listen to any terms of accommodation ?.Butwhat is
Submitted to our consideration ? we contend for the
disposal of our property : we are told that our de
mand is unreasonable, that our ;ffcmblies may indeed
collet opr money, but that they must at the fame
time offer : not what your exigencies or ours, may
require ; but lb much as shall be deemed fufficient
to Satisfy the desires of a minister and enable him to
provide for favourites and dependants. (A. recur
rence to your own treasury will convince you how
little of the money already extorted from us has been
applied to the relief of your burthens.) To suppose
that we would thus grasp 'the shadow, and give up
the substance is adding insult to injuries.
We have nevertheiefs again presented an humble
and dutiful Petition to our Sovereign ; and to re
move every imputation of ebftinancy, h. ve requeued
his Majelty to direct some mode, by which the united
applications of his faithful colonists may be improved
into a happy and permanent reconciliation. We are
willing to treat on such terms as can alone render an
accommodation lifting, and we flatter ourselves, that
four pacific endeavourswill be attended with a removal
of the troops, a repeal of thole laws, of the opera
tion of which we complain on the one part, and a
diffblution of our army and commercial associations,
on the other.
To bis Excellency
GEORGE WASHINGTON, Esq;
General and Commander in Chief of tbe Continental
Army.
May it pleafeyour Excellency,
THE Congress of tbe Maffacbufetts Colony, im
pressed vsitb every Sentiment of Gratitude and
Refpefl, beg Leave to congratulate you on your fafe
Arrival; and to vffo you all imaginable Happiness
and Success, in tbe Execution of tbe important Duties
cfyo, elevated Station. While we applaud that At
tention to tbe public Good, manifefled in your Appoint
ment, we equally admire that difaterefed Virtue and
dis ingulfed Pal iotifm, which alone could call you
from those Enjoyments of domeJlic Life, which a sublime
andmanly Taste, joined with a most affluent Fortune,
can afford, to hazard your Life, and to endure tbe
Fatigues of War, in the Defence of tbe Rights of
Mankind, and the Good of your Country.
Tbe laudable Zeal for the common Cause of Ame
rica, and Companion for tbe Diflreffes of tbis Colony,
exbibitted by tbe great Difratcb made in your Journey
bitber,fully juflify tbe univerfalSatisfafion we have,
with Pleasure, observed on this Occafon; and are prb
miJing Presages that tbe ^reat Expectations formed
Jrom your personal Character, and military Abilities,
are well founded.
Yet conclude not front this that we propose to sur
render our property into the hands of your ministry,
or velt your parliament with a power which may ter
minate in our deftru&ion. The great bulwarks of
our constitution we have desired to maintain by every
temperate, by every peaceable means; but your
ministers (equal foes to British and American free
dom) have added to their former oppreflions an at
tempt to reduce us by the (word to a base and abje&
fubmiffibn. On the sword therefore we are compelled
to rely for prote&ion.---Should vi&cry declare in
your favour, yet men trained to arms from their in
fancy and animated by the low of liberty, will
afford neither a cheap or easy conquest. Of this at
leaftwe are allured, that our struggle will be glo
rious, our success certain, since even in death we shall
find that freedom which in life you forbid us to enjoy.
Let us flow alk what advantages are to attend our
reduction ? the trade of a ruined and desolate country
is always inconsiderable, its revenue trifling; the
expence of fubje&ing and retaining it in Subjection
certain and inevitable. What then remains but the
gratifications of an ill judged pride, or the hope of
rendering us subservient to designs on your liberty.
Soldiers who have Sheathed their swords in the
bowels of their American brethren, will not draw
them with more reluctance against you.. When too
late you may lament the loss of that freedom, which
we exhort you, while still in your power, to preserve.
On the other hand, should you prove unfuccefsful;
Should that connection, which we most ardently wish
to maintain, be diflblved ; should your minifies ex
hault your treasures ; waste the bipod of your coun
trymen in vain attempts on our liberty ; do they not
deliver you, weak and defencelefs, to your natural
enemies ?
If you have no regard to the connexion that has
for ages subsisted between us; if you. have forgot
the wounds we received fighting by your fide, for
the extention of the empire ; if our commerce is an
obje& below your consideration ; if justice and hu
manity have loft their influence on your hearts, still
motives are not wanting, to excite your indignation
at the measures now pursued : your wealth, your
honour, your liberty are at Stake.
Notwithstanding the distress to which we are re
duced, we Sometimes forget our own ami&ions, to
anticipate and Sympathize in yours. We grieve that
rash and inconsiderate councils should precipitate the
destruction of an empire, which has been the envy
and admiration of ages. And call God to witness !
that we would part with our property, endanger opr
lives, and Sacrifice every thing but Liberty to redeem
you from ruin.
A cloud hangs over your heads and ours ; e'er
this reaches you, it may probably have burst upon
us ; let us then (before the remembrance of former
kindness is obliterated) once more repeat those ap
pellations which are ever grateful in our ears. Let
us entreat Heaven to avert our ruin, and the destruc
tion that threatens our friends, brethren, and coun
trymen, on the other fide of the Atlantic.
By order of tbe Congress,
JOHN HANCOCK, President.

CHARLES THOMSON, Secretary.

CAMBRIDGE, July 6.
The following Addresses have been presented to bis
Excellency General Washington and tbe Hon. Major
General Lee.
Since then your liberty, must be the price of your
victories; your ruin of your defeat ; what blind fa
tality can urge you to a pursuit deftru&ive of all that
Britons hold dear ?
We zufh you may have found fuck Regularity a;id
Discipline already efablijhcd in the Army, as may be
Wewould not presume to prescribe to your Excel
lency, but puppoJing you would cboofe ta be informed of
the general CbaraNer of the Soldiers who compose this
Army, beg Leave to represent, that the greateJi Part of
them have not before seen "Service. And although na
turally brave, and of good Underflanding, yet for
Wantof Experience tn military Life, have but little
Knowledge of divers Things most efiential to the Pre
fervafon of Health, and even of Life. The Youth
in the Army are not pofffed of the absolute Neceffiy of
CleanUnefs in their Dress, and Lodging, continual Ex
ercise, and fria Temperance, to preserve them from
Diseases frequently prevailing i n Camps ; especially
among those, who, from their Childhood, have been
used to a laborious Life. 1
We beg Leave to afore you, that this Congress will,
at all Times, be ready to attend to such Requisitions
as you may have Occasion to male to us ; and to con
tribute all the Aid in our Power, to the Cause of Ame
rica, and your Happiness and Ease, in the Difcbarge
oj the Duties of your exalted Office.
We mos fervently implore Almighty COD, that the
BdJ/ings oj Divine Providence may rest on you : That
your Read may be cohered in the Day of Battle ; That
every necefary Afifance may be afforded ; and that
you,ma, be long continued in Life and Health, a Blef
jing to Mankind.
His Excellency's Answer.
Gentlemen,
YOUR kind Congratulations on my Appointment,
and Arrival, demand my warmeji Ac knowledg
ments, and aydl ever be retained in grateful Remem
brance.
of the Continental Army.
I. SIR,
THE Congress of the Maffaebufetts Colony, pof
fefrd oj the falleji Evidence oj your Attachment
to the Rights of Mankind, and Regard to the Dijireffes
I which America in general, and this Colony in farti-
I cular, are involved in, by the impolitic, wicked and
tyrannic Sy/lem, adopted by Adminijiration, and pur
sued with relentless and savage Fury, do, with Flea
fare, embrace this Opportunity to express the great Sa
ttydflion and Gratitude they jeel on your Appointment
as a Major-General in the American Army.
We sincerely congratulate you on your fafe Arrival
here, and wijb you all possible Happiness and Success
in the Execution of Jo important a Truji. We admire
I and refpea the Charafler of a Man who, disregard
ing the Allurements of Profit and Difinaion bis Merit
might procure, engages in the Cause oj Mankind, in
Defence of the Injured, and Relief oj the Opprefed.
From your Character, from your great Abilities and
military Experience, united with tbofe a/the Com
mander in Chief under the Smiles of Providence, we
flatter ourselves with the Profpea of Discipline and
Order, Success and ViHory.
Beaffured, Sir, that it will give us great "leafare to
be able to contribute to your Happiness. May the Fa
vours and Blessings of Heaven attend you. May di
vine Providence guard and proteH you, conduct you
in the Paths of Honour and Virtue, grant you the Re
ward of the Brave and Virtuous, the Applauses of
Mankind, and the Approbation oj your own Consci
ence, and eternal Happiness hereafter.
His Honour's Answer.
To the Gentlemen oj the Provincial Congress of Mas
sachusetts.
Gentlemen,
NOTHING can be so flattering to me as the
good Opinion and Approbation of the Delegates
of a free and uncorrupt People. 1 was educated in the
bigheft Reverence for the Rights of Mankind, and
have acquired by a long Acquaintance a most particu
lar Regard for the People of America. You may de
pend therefore, Gentlemen, on my Zeal and Integrity.
---I can promise you nothing from my Abilities. God
Almighty grant us Success equal to the Rigbteoufnefs of
the Cause. I thank you, Gentlemen, for an Address
which does me so much Honour, and Jhall labour to
deserve it.
None of the men who have been raised by this and
several other Colonies, are, in future, to be distin
guished as the troops of any particular colony, but
as the forces of " the united Colonies of North-
America." into whole joint service they have been
taken by the Continental Congress, and are to be
paid and Supported accordingly.
We hear from Exeter, New-Hampshire, that a
Committee from the Congress Setting there, waited
on G. J. Bq; Province Tieafurer, for what Money
be had by,him belonging to the province, and received
frorn him 15001. which was fafely conveyed to
Exeter.
The enemy early in the Morning of last Sabbath,
in return for some cannon Shot they received from one
of our fortreffes the afternoon before, began and
continued for Several hours, a heavy fixe upon the
agreeable to your Expectation. Tbe Hurry with
cuobicb it was neccffarily colle&ed, and the many DiJ
adevantages, ariJing from a Sufpenfon of Govern
ment, tender switch we have railed, and endeavoured
to regulate the Forces of this Colony, have rendered it
a W'ork of Time. • And though in great Measure
offered, the Completion of so difficult, and at the
fame Time so necessary a Taft, is referred to your
Excellency ; and we doubt not will be properly conji
dered and attended to.
In exchanging the Enjoyments of domeJlic Life for
the Duties of my prefect honourable, but arduous Sta
tion, I only emulate the Virtue and public Spirit of the
whole Province oj Maffaebufetts-Bay, which with a
Firmness, And Patriotijm without Example in modern
History, has faertfeed all the Comforts of facial and
political Life, in Support of the Rights of Mankind,
and the Weljare of our common Country, M, bigheft
Ambition is to be the happy InJirument of vindicating
those Rights, and to fee this devoted Province again
refored to Peace, Liberty and Safety.
The Jbert Space oj Lime which has elapsed jince my
Arrival does not permit me to decide upon the State of
the Army. The Course of human Affairs forbids an
Expectation, that Troops formed under such Circum
fances jhould at once pofefs the Order, Regularity
and Discipline of Veterans.---Whatever Deficiencies
there may be, will I doubt not, soon be made up b, the
Activity and Zeal of the Officers, and the Docility and
Obedience of the Men. These Dualities united with
their, native Bravery and Spirit will afford a happy
Presage of Success, and put a final Period to those
Difrefe, which now overwhelm this once happy
Country.
I ms fmcerely thank you, Gentlemen, for your
Declarations of Readinef; at all Times to aflijl me in
the Difcbarge of the Duties of my Station; they are
so complicated, and extended, ibat I fall need the As-
Jiftance of every good Man, and Lover oj bis Coun
try ; I therefore repose the utmof Confidence in your
Aids. In Return jor your affeaionate Wjbes to myfelf,
permit me to fay, that I earnefily implore that Divine
Being in wbofe Hands are all human Events, to make
ypu and your Confituents, as difingulfed in private
and public Happiness, as you have been by ministerial
Oppreffon, by private and public Diprifs.
