This Morning about 4 o'Clock we attacked the

Long-Island) previously informed of our Design.
I continued the Attack for two Hours with Field
Pieces and fmali Arms, being all that Time between
two smart Fires from the Shipping and the Light
House, bur could make no Impression on the Walls.
I then returned to my Camp at the South End of the
Cedars, which I have occupied two Days and Nights,
and after refrefhing my Men, sent out 50 to fee for
Game ; they have this Minute attacked them with
Small Arms, and seven Boats are making from the

The Court unanimously agreed (upon hearing the
Parties and Witnesses) that Capt. Copp was not
guilty of affaultipg Col. Zedwitz ; and the Parties
have agreed to compromise the Matter.
It appeared in the Course of the Examination of
the Dispute between Col, Zedwitz and Capt. Copp,
that Insinuations of Cowardice had been thrown out
by Col. Zedwitz against Capt. Copp, relative to his
Condua in the Attempt of Storming Quebec, on the
31st of December last. The Charge appears to the
Court to be ground!cfs, and to have originated from
a Mistake of Col. Zedwitz, for which he has ex

the Court, and which is fatisfa&ory to Capt. Copp.

Extract of a letter from St. Euftatia, May „.
NEW-YORK, June 20, 1776.
WHEREAS the Continental Congress, on the 14th
Day of March last, did recommend it to the
several Assemblies, Conventions, and Councils or Com
mittees of Safety of the United Colonies, immediately
to cause all Persons to be disarmed within their refpeAive
Colonies, who were notoriously difaffedted to the Cause
of America, or had not associated, and refufed toaffociate,
to defend by Arms these United Colonies, against the
hostile Attempts of the Britilh Fleets and Armies.
And whereas the late Committee of Safety of this
Colony, did thereupon, on the 27th Day of March afore
faid, recommend it to the Committees of the several
Cities, Counties, Manors, Townships, Precinas and
Diftri&s in this Colony, forthwith to cause to be disarmed
all Persons within their refpe&ive Diftrifts who were
known to be difaffiaed to the Cause of America; and
also all such Persons as should refufe to Sign the following
Association, viz.
66 We the Subferibers, Inhabitants of in the
" County of and Colony of New-York, do
" voluntarily and solemnly engage, under all the Ties
" held sacred among Mankind, at the Rifle of our Lives
'' and Fortunes, to defend by Arms the United American
" Colonies, against the hostile Attempts of the Britilh
" Fleets and Armies, until the present unhappy Contro
“ verfy between the two Countries mail be fettled?'
And whereas it hath been objefted to the said Form of
an Association, that by obliging the Subscribers or Afloci
aters, in fuc*h general and express Terms, to defend the
United Colonies by Arms against the hostile Attempts of
the Britilh Fleets and Armies, it deprived them of the
Rights reserved by the Militia Regulations, and impaled
on them the Necessity of marching to the most distant of
the Colonies whenever called upon. Which Construction
of the said Affociatiop, however nice and cafuiftical, is
ineonfiftent and fallacious; it being manifeft that the
Militia Regulations could by no Rules of Conftrufiion be
supposed to be repealed and abrogated by any labile Im
plications drawn from the said Association,
But as fume of the Friends to the American Cause have
been influenced by this Objection to refute Signing the
said Association, and in Coafequence thereof been dis
armed; it hath become expedient that the said Associa
tion mould be fe explained as to render it free from
specious as well as Solid Objections, and therefore,
Revivedunanimously, That nothing in the laid Allevi
ation contained, mail extend or be conftiued to extend to
deprive those who have fubferibed it, of any Rights re
served to them in and by the said Militia Regulations.
And to the End that all the Freemenof this Colony may
atiociate for the Prefervaticn of American Liberty in a
Form entirely unexceptionable,
Refined unemimeufy, That the following Form of ah
Association be and is hereby recommended to them, viz.
". WE the Subscribers, Inhabitants of in
"the County of and Colony of New-York, do
“ most solemnly declare, that the Claimsof the British
" Parliament to bind at their Diferetion the People Vs
" the United Colonies in America, in all Cases wbat
" soever, are, in our Opinions, absurd, unjust, and ty
^ rannieal, and that th^noftile Attempts ui their Fleets 1
" and Armies to enforce Submission to those wicked and
" ridiculous Claims ought to be refilled by Arms. And
" Therefore we do engage and affiliate under ail
“ the Ties which we refpeftively hold sacred, to defend
" by Arms these United Colonies, against the said hostile
" Attempts, agreeable to such Laws or Regulations as
'f our Representatives in the Comgreffes or future Gene
" rai Assemblies of this Colony have or mail for that
" P^rpofe make and eftabliffi.”
And that all Persons who have been disarmed for re
filling to associate with their Countrymen for the Defence
of the United Colonies, in the Form prescribed by the
late Committee of Safety as aforefaid, may have no pre
tence to complain of Injustice; and that they may have
a fair Opportunity of convincing the Public that their
Refusal to Sign the said Association did not arise from a
Disinclination to defend the Rights of America,, but
merely from Objections to the Form of the said Afluci
ation, and thereby be restored to the Privilege of bearing
Arms in Support of a Cause so important and so glorious.
Refolded unammoufy, That all Persons (other than
thole whom the Committees of the several Counties
Shall adjudge to be notoriously difaffeded to the Ameri
can Cause) who have not associated in the Form pre
scribed by the late Committee of Safety as aforefaid, be
called upon (by Persons to be appointed by the said Com
mittees of the several Counties) 'and requested to sub
scribe the Association contained and recommended in and
by these Refelutions. And, Refolded further, That all
such of the said Perlons as ihall fubfoibe the fame
(other than notorioully dilaft'e&ed Persons as aforefaid)
ought to be considered and treated as Friends to their
Country, and that all Arms taken from them, and not
disposed of to the Continental Troops, be restored to
them, and that Care be taken, that they refpe&ively be
paid the lull Price allowed for such of their Arms as may
have been delivered to the Continental Troops as afore
faid. And further. That all such of the said Persons as
shall refufe to fubteribe the fame (together with all no
toriously difaffe&ed Persons) be forthwith (if not already
done) disarmed, and required on Oath to declare and
difeover, whether the Arms so to be taken from them,
be all the Arms they refpe&ivel, have or had,and if not,
where the Residue thereof, to the belt of their Know
ledge and Belief, are deposited and may be found ; and
that such of them as Shall refute to take such Oath be
committed to Safe Custody till they will consent to take it.
Refolded unanimously, That it be and it is hereby re
commended to the Committees of the several Counties
in this Colony to carry the aforefaid Refoletion into Ex
ecution with Diligence and Punctuality.
Ordered, That the aforegoing Resolutions be forthwith
printed in all the Gazettes or News-papers published in
this City, and in One Thonfand Hand Bills for the Use
of the Counties.
In Provincial Congress, New-Ymk, June 14.
RESOLVED, That if any perlons committed to
any goal in this colony, by order ofcthis house, or of
any Committee thereof authorized to make such com
mitment, or of any of the county committees, escape
from the custody of the goaler or goaleis, by design
or negligence of the laid goaler or goaleis, to whom
they may refpe&ively be committed, the laid goaler or
goalers drill receive the treatment due to the offence
wherewith the persons so escaping flood charged.
And to the end that the laid goalers may have all ne
cessary assistance in securing their said persons,
Refolded, That the county Committee of the seve
ral counties be, and they are hereby authorized and
required to infpe& h and cause the goals in their seve
ral and refpe&ive counties to be made fafe and secure,
and that this Congress will pay the expence thereof,

SUGAR PLUMBS,
Neceflary to be kept in all Families.
SO exceedingly valued by all People who have had
of them in Gcat-Biitain cr Leland, fur their
tranfeendant Excellency in the destroying W ni sos
all Kinds, both in the Bodies of Mm, Women and
Children, by not only breaking the Knots in the
Duodenum, or Gutt next the Stomach, but they pass
through the foralleft Paffiges of the Body, and purge
away those ropy and fliinv Humours which are the
Cause of those pernicious Vermin, and the Source of
many other Disorders; they are one of the belt Purgts
in tire whole World for gross bod ed Children that are
apt to breed Worms, and have large Bellies; their
Operation is mild, fafe and pleasant; they wonder
fully eleanfe the Bowels of all Iliff and clamm,
Humours which stop up the Parts, and prevent the
Juice of Food being conveyed to the Liver and made
Blood, which is often the Case with Children, and
is attended with a hard Belly, Linking Breath, fre
quent Fevers, Rickets, and a decay of Strength in
the lower Parts; Likewise fettled Aches and P&n§,
in the Head, Dwellings, old Sores, Scabs, Tetters
or Breakings out, will be perfectly cured, and the
Blood and Skin ivllored to its original Purity and
Smoothness; they Purge by Urine, and bring away
the Gravel, and efftaually Cure all Obftru& ; ons of
the Urine, or Ulcers in the Kidneys. They at once
(hike at the true Cause of the Scurvy and entirely
destroy it, and all scorbutic Humours arid Eff &s,
Root and Branch, so as never to return again ; and
what makes them more commendable is, they are full
as agreeable to both Taste and Sight, as Loaf Sugar ;
and in their Operation as Innocent as new Milk.
I have by these Plumbs cured a great many Children
of Whooping or Chin Coughs, and Agues, which'
Distempers are very common and troubiefome to
Families, and the Want of these Plumbs are the
Ruin of many Childrens Constitutions.
These Plumbs enrich and sweeten the whole Mass
of Blood, carry off all gross, corrupt and putrid
Humours, and create a frefh and healthy Complexion
in such as are affcaed by iny putrid Matter.
The Plumb is a great Dicuretick, clearing the
Reins of Slime; it expels Wind, and is a sovereign
Medicine in the Choliefc and griping of the Guts. It
allays and carries off four Vapours which occafisn
many Disorders in the Head. It opens all Obftru&ion
in the Stomach, Lungs, Liver, Reins and Bladder ;
causes a good Appetite and helps Digestion. It
hath been found wonderfully fuccefsful to such Per
sons as are going into Chronicle Distempers, as
Asthmas, Phthificks or fliortnefs ofßreath, Dropsies
and yellow Jaundice. Now I hope all impartial
Persons are fatisfied, that the Medicine which works
upon such Humours, will almost teach any Distemper,
if not too far gone, since Corruption and Putrefaction
are the fore-runners of all Diseases; therefore no
better Phyfick can be taken for all Ages, Sexes and
Conftituticns, from Infancy to an old Age. These
Plumbs are highly serviceable to the Female Sex,
from the Age of 14. to 20 Years, and from 40 to 50,
Each Box contains one Dozen of these Plumbs.
Price 8 Shillings, with printed Directions, Sold
by Hugh Gaine, in New-Yoik, and by no other
Person in America, unless by his Appointment.
