By Capt. HAMILTON, ^bo arrived hire !af Monday 1
in 7 Weiks from Liverpool, and Cat. Jarvis, I
that arrived here loft Thursday in 3 Weeks from
Bristol, ave bane the following Advices, viz.
Paris, (Capital of France) July 26.
NO former were the infurre&wr quelled which
were occasioned by the high price of corn, than
a new species oj villainy broke out. In many places
the corn has been cut down through malice before it
was ripe, andfevercil letters has been dispersed, threa-,
tening to set fire to the com as itfiands, unless the price
is reduced to one third of what it is at prefect, Guards
are fat into many parifas to prevent the coifequences
of tbefe threats.
The Afenbly of the Clergy have voted afree gift to
the King of 20,000,00 a livers ; and a loan of the like
sum is negotiating for his Majefly.
The French Nobility at Paris are not left jealous 0,
the Scots ; than the Englifo are at London. The com
mand of the Military Order of St. Lous, which became
vacant by the death of the Chevalier de la Valliere, is
just conferred upon Lord Drummond Melford, hereto
fore Colonel of the Regiment of Royal Scots.
Venice, July 10. We have the most favourable ac
count of the corn barvefl throughout this Republic ; by
the calculation of the Farmers, this year will produce
grain of all forts fufficient for three or four years to
come, ire have tbefame good accounts from Lombar
dy, which has greatly lowered the price of provifans.
Bonn, (Germany) July 27. For twenty years past
there hrs not been lb plentiful a harvest of every kind
of grain as there is now in this country, arid in the
neighbouring dates; there is allo a great profpe& of
a good and plentiful vintage on the Main, Molblle,
and Rhine.—
Lisbon, (Portugal) July 4. The firft of this
month we had a violent shock of an earthquake here,
but we have not heard of any damage being done
by it.§
LOND O N,
July 22. There is at present such a universal
ftagnabon of trade, that there are no less than zoo
merchantmen in thy river, bound to different ports,
which canned obtain freight.•
A gentleman is arrived from India : It is said he
tomes from the company's fervapts, and inhabitants
of Bengal, with a formal refusal of submission to the
commissioner, or judges lately arrived there, and also
brings an account 'that the resignation of all the
Company's fervahts will be the consequence of their
being continued, by which the Company's affairs
will be greatly, injured, and the government of the
country much endangered.
July 25 Weare informed, thrtaccounts of a very
doubtful, if not alarming nature, have been recei
ved from the Court of Madrid in the course of lad
week.
We are assured, from good authority that the Spa
nish Ambassador has abfolutcly refuted to give any
Specific assurances relative to the Armada late in the
harbour and part of Carthagena ; but as often pressed
on that head has copftantly referred them to the ex
planations given by Mons. Grimaldi to Lord Gran
iham, our Minister, at the Court of Madrid.
It is now confidently asserted that Lord North in
ffifts upon his Majesty's permission to resign, but offers
to give every fubtlantial assistance in his power, as
,nuch as ifhe had still continued in office.
Notwithstanding all the pains taken by the hire
lings of government to blacken the Americans, it
does notappeareven from the partial account in the
Gazette of the a&ion of the 17th of June, that they
were either cruel, unskilful, or cowardly. They
fought it out bravely to the last, carried off their dead,
may, buried them in spite of their enemies utmost
efforts. They have killed and disabled above a thou
sand of the King's troops, who have gained a dear
bought victory by their own confeffion. For. what
have they done ? By the help of the artillery, and the
zffiftance of the men of war, they have been enabled
to dillodge the provincials from zpoft, which in all
probability they have regained by this time: The e
^emies of administration cannot with them a greater
misfortune than such another vi&ory.
July 31. Yeferday several promotions of Military
Officers were made at St. James's, in the ,oom of thoff
foiled in America, addfor the augmentation, of troops,
which are ordered to bold tbemfelves in, readiness 10
embark for America, to reinforce the arm) under Ge
neral Gage.
We hear that a great personage, when he firft read
General Gage's Letter on the late a&ion, exclaimed,
" I am sorry for the loss of my Subje&s, but the
laws of my country muff be supported."
It is reported that a letter from Button brings an
account, that Gen. Putnam had lent a message to
Gen. Gage, wherein he informed him, that if tie did
mot quit that place, and embark with his Troops,
he would lay siege to it with 30,000 men, when nei
ther he nor his Troops were to expe& any quarter.
It is added, that Gen. Gage was allowed four days
to deliberate on the above message, and that he had
Hot returned any answer when this advice came away.
The Government Contra&ers have received orders
4to furnish winter camp eloathing and utensils for
10,000 men, which are to be Flipped off immediately
for Boston.
July 27. England and Ireland groan under the
weight of heavy taxations and unconstitutional pen
sions. Will the burden be lighter should we humble
the Americans. No: But there will then be places on
the continent for our ministers to dispose of ; arid the
world will then be convinced, that in these men felf
intereft has the precedency of public good.
The late a&ion, though crowned with faccelil has
convinced those in power that a greater force is ne
cessary to put a speedy end tothe troubles in America.
The transports therefore, which have been for some
time in preparation, are said to have received orders
to fail to Embden with all expedition to take on board
10,000 of his Majeffy's Hanoverian troops, which,
under an escort of a squadron, are to fail to Bofton'.
It is expe&ed that they will be all on board by the
fifteenth of Auguff ; and by arriving in the end of
September, fufficient time will be preferred before the
fitting in of cold weather effectually to disperse the
insurgents, and force them into submission.
Wednesday orders were sent to Hanover for four
regiments of Hanoverians to hold themselves in im
mediate readiness to embark for America, and yester
day several transports failed from the river to take the
above troops on board.
We are well assured that the most effectual and vi
gorous mediate will be pursued with the provinces of
New England, both on account of theirown signal
demerits, and as an example to the other Colonies.
The Parliament is to meet in the firft week of No
vember, in which a motion will be made for a bill
of general forfeiture of the lands of all such as (hall
not iurrender themselves on or before the firft of Fe
bruary, 1776 ; and the lands so forfeited will by the
fame authority be diftfibuted by debentures to such
volunteers as shall join themselves, at their own ex
pence (but with the aid of government) to effectuate
tue entire conquest and absolute fubje&ion of the
country.
August 3. Yesterday Lord Mansfield was sent for by
a messenger from Hertford, and came to his house at
Caenwood, where some of the great Officers of State
met his Lordship; and this morning he let out from
thence for Chelmsford.
Twenty thousand stands of arms were Whipped yes
terday morning at the Tower for America.
General Clinton writes to a friend in the following
terms : " We are in tolerable good spirits, but we
have no vi&uals, nor no money to buy any with."
It is said that Lord John Murray will set out for
Scotland in a few days, in order to raise anew regi
ment of Highlanders.
On the late survey made of the Royal Navy, it
appears that there are 87 (hips fit for service, includ
ing those already in commiffiqn, dnd also several
frigates.
Extract of a letter from Chatham, Augufl 2.
" Yesterday evening as the seamen belonging to
his Majesty's frigate the Liverpool, of 28 guns, now
fitting for America, were getting up her main top
mast, the tackling gave way, and the mail fell on
one of the men, whom it killed on the f'pot ; another
was so terribly bruited, that it is imagined he can't
live ; a third received some flight hurt.
Augufi3. Orders have been issued for the officers
of the regiments m Scotland, and the islands of
Guernsey, Jersey, Alderney, &c. not to grant fur
lows to their men.
A letter fiom Boston concludes thus, " The pro
vincials, I am clear, will never Land us in a fair line,
but behind hedges, walls, or bread-works their fire
is truly formidable, and their rifles peculiarly adapted
to take offthe officers of a whole line as it marches to
an attack. Our three Generals came over in high
spirits, and expelled rather to punish a mob than
fight with troops that would lock them in the face;
but there is an air of dejection through all our superi
ors, which forebodes no good, and does not look as
things ought to do after victory."'
War-Office, Auguf 5. Ali Captains, Lieu
tenants, and Enfighs, reduced with their corps at the
last peace, and still remaining on. half-pay on the
English cftabldhment, who desire to be again em
ployed in their present rank, are directed to fignify
the fame to the Secretary at war.
A letter from Plymouth, dated July 31, fays,
" The Orpheus frigate, in ordinary here, is ordered
into the dock, and to be fitted out for foreign service ;
but no Captain is yet appointed, or at least come
down. Plymouth is now a very Sorrowful pLce,vhe
late news from Bodon has watered many a check here;
the officers of marines, who were wounded and killed
in the attack, motily were of this plade. The
lower fort of people too came in for their Ihare, or
rather more, but no account received in private ipecify
the names of the Soldiers of that corps. All the
wives and families of the common men are, therefore
sighing and weeping, least their husbands and fathers
Should be among the killed."
Eightmen of war, from 50 to 20 guns each, are
now fitting out in different dock-yards, to relieve the
large men of war on the American Ration, which art
ordered home.
When the Scotch nominal reinforcement of to,ooo
men, which most probably will not exceed 3,000, are
failed for America, a very intelligent correspondent
balances the account thus, viz. 1000 dead in the
voyage, arid by the ftux, within fix weeks, after
their landing; 1000 dead by the severity of the
frigid zone climate, and for want of provisions ;
1000 killed by the provincials, or defected. His
conclusion therefore is, to leave the intended rein
forcement at home, to defend us against our enemies,
who may think themselves invited, through our
nakedness, to invade us.
In the reign of Augustus, Quintillions Varus, at
the head of the best and choicest legions of the whole
empire, either for valour, discipline, or experience,
invaded the territories of the Germans, and being
induced, to follow them into their forefts and marches,
was attacked by night, and entirely cutoff, with the
loss of all his army. .This defeat so affe&ed Augu
stus, that he never after recovered his spirits. He
was heard often in the greatest angui/h to cry out,
“ Varus, redore me my legions." Should cur par
liamentary army go out of their entrenchments, the
Americans willcut them off to a man. And should
our natural enemies, the French and Spaniards, who
have a large fleet out at sea, invade us when the
flower of our army is loft in America, will nofour
Sovereign cry out with Augustus, « Gage, restore
me my Soldiers."
Augufl 8. Orders are given for the cruisers on the
American station to take all ships, of what nation
foever,winch are found within a certain distance of the
ports there, which are now shut up.
Orders are sent to Ireland for a stop to be put to the
exportation of salt provisions to the ports of France
and Spain, or the illands in the Weft-Indies belonging
to thole two powers.
The Right Hon. the Earl of Chatham lies dan
gerously ill at his feat at Hayes. The gout has left
his Lordship some time,and was succeeded with a dis
order of the nature of a tertian ague, and from that
it is now thought, by his very great weakness of
body, that a complication of disorders has ensued,
which makes his recovery ^t this time very doubtful.
Some people aver, that the Aldermen, Common-
Council, and Livery of this city, are determined to
re-chufe the Right Horn John Wilkes, Lord Mayor
of London, in testimony of his Ready, upright, and
vigorous administration.
Several warehodfes below Tooley-ftreet, towards
Rotherhithe, are so filled with warm, sweating wheat,
that they smell to the puffers by just like so many
malt kilns. Bieffed effe&s of monopoly unrestrained
by law !
It is now positively asserted, that the parliament
will meet early in O&ober next.
The principal motives assigned for the unexpe&ed
and unprecedented meeting of Parliament, are the
following :---To grant money for the purpose of
raising and paying new levies. To authorize his
Majesty, in case necessary, to take 16,000 Hano
verians into pay. To grant money to embody and
keep in pay one half of the militia throughout Eng
land ; and in case the Americans Ihould Ihew a dis
position to return to their duty, to consult Parliament
on the conditions to be granted them.
Extras of a letter from Madrid, filly 16,
" Our fleet from Carthagena, arrived the 4th inst;
before Algiers, but could not land on account of the
tempestuous winds, till the 7th, when between 7000
and 8000 men were landed, with the greatest part of
the provisions, which was followed by the rest of the
infantry, but before they could land any horse, or
the train of artillery, they were attacked by the na
tives, when a combat ensued, which lasted thirteen
hours, after which the remainder of our troops
retired on board their veffels'. On this occasion 800
were killed, among whom there were two or three
officers of rank ; 2000 wounded, among whom are
the General in Chief,' O'Reiley, and the second in
command, Don Ricardos, and five or fix General
Officers j besides which they abandoned three field
pieces, and the greatest part of the provision, which
had been put on fliore. We cannot learn the loss of
the Algerines, but our fleet is returned to Alicant,
without bombarding Algiers, for want of provisions."
Papers of a very treasonable nature have been
lately pasted up and dropped round the palaces of the
K---in town and country.
The laR letters from Amsterdam advise, that a
great house has failed there for upwards of 1,500,000
guilders.
The account of the late a&ion between the Ame
!ricans and the troops of General Gage, is one of
I the most evasive and unfatisfa&ory that ever yet
obtruded on the public, even through thechannel of
I a ministerial paper ; and yet it is every way worthy
I of the vi&ory which it aflfe&s to describe. The
General sent out " something above 2000 men," of
whom something above half (i. e. 1053) are either
killed or wounded. The General, however, takes
care not to mention how many hours were employed
in the prosecution of this hopeful business, but ne
vertheless pretends to tell us that great numbers of
the enemy were destroyed ; and seems to have em
ployed his soldiers in digging up such as were buried
in holes, that he might have power to afeertain the
value of'his conquest. With all the vanity of a
, military man he praises the conds& of the officers
under his command ; but prudently omits to fay,
whether any such advantage has been gained, as may
make up for the lots of " one Lieutenant-Colonel,
two Majors, seven Captains, nine Lieutenants, fifteen
Serjeants, one Drummer, one bundled and ninety-one
rank and file, killed, and three Majors, twenty
feven Captains, thirty-two Lieutenants, eigh' Ens ns,
forty Serjeants, twelve Drummers, and seven hun
dred and fix rank and file wounded," and unfit
for service
In short, if ever the General fends out hi, brace
of thousands, the one half of 1 em should eitht
drop, or be rendered useless, we shall soon fee an er:
to the war in America, but yet it cannot be bxpe&ed
to terminate in our own favour.
The Ministry 'received this account several days
before it was announced, but were either unwillog
or unable to tock it up for the publick, till after
their dispatches had been sent away. The printer
may rely on this affiirance from one whose private
letters will always reach him unexanrined and un
caftrated by the foies of Government. General Gage
is but too well convinced that such another victory
would oblige him to re-erobark his troops aad fail
immediately for England, without attempting any
farther redu&ion of the Americans.
The Captain who brought these dispatches from
Boston, was commanded to declare he had great news
of the defeat of the Americans, tho' he had assured
many peoplein the towns through which he palled on
his way to London, that he was afraid the accounts
he brought would throw the whole nation into disor
der, and dire& its vengeance on the advisers of
hostile measures in Americas

An Answer to Mr. GRIGG's Addrefc
AS it must be of advantage to the community t 3
know the true characters of its members in these
Critical times, and as it is the duty of individuals to de
fend their characters, from the afoerfions of malice and
enmity; I am induced, from these motives, to take
notice of a certain appeal to the public, in this paper c
the 18th ult. from Mr. John Grigg.
He endeavours to persuade the public, that I had invfo
dioufly charged him with an offence of which he is guilt
less; that ,I had opposed his nomination as Captain in
the Out-ward, on pretence of his having cursed the
Congress, or femewbat to that effiff ; and that I had pre
ferred a complaint against him both before the congress
and committee, but could, in no way, support it.
I did indeed ftr : ve to prevent his nomination, alledging,
he was an improper person, because unfriendly to Ame
rican Liberty ; a-d herein I was actuated by two weighty
configurations; the one, that he appeared on the me
morable 16th of March, at the Exchange, among the
oppofers of a congress ; the other, which is less ambi
guous that about fix weeks ago, the following most loyal
and devout toast was drank at his house, “ God save the
King and Parliament, and damn the Congress." The
firft of these, I presume he will not be bold enough to
deny, Ante it wa&a public aCI, and can be proved by
numbers ; in confirmation of the last, I shall fubjerin the
deposition of Mr. John Thorp, and could, if necessary,
produce others, .
Trough this evidence be not entirely positive, I traft
it will juflify my conduft in opposing the Lid Grigg ;
fr the designs of the minority, on the day above-menti
oned, were too apparent to admit of any confidence bein^
placed is them, till they have given the eleareft expreffi
tto ach^g'cf fenument; and so far is this from
being his case, that he has exhibited a f efh instance of
dibffcaiorc It cannot be imagined, that such a toast
would have been drank in the house of a person well
affe&ed to the measures of America. Let me add, that
he never figntd the affectation till proofed as captain,
and then went hastily to a member of the committee
and signed it.
But to fbew more deafly the center ptiblenefs of the
man, I muftobferve, that he is guilty of a palpable
al'ehood; for I had neither been bes. re the congress nor
committee, when his publication appeared. The con
gress J h e ve not been with at all; but since that I waited
upon the committee 'with m y accusation, and though the
proofs I adduced did not seem fufficient to warrant a for
mal fen;epee of difqualification, yet iris easy to judge
what was the opinion of nwflof them on the occasion.
Fror rthis fair representation of fads, I leave it with
the public to decide on the merits of Mr, Grigg, and the
propriety of my conduct towards him, in whole im^ar^
tial det rminatiorf I Ihall entirely acquiefee.
