From North-Carolina we are informed, that Ad

gracious Sovereign, and Attachment to the British
Constitution ; of their utter Abhorrence of a dan
gerous Republican Fa&ion, which would destroy the
Monarchical Part of our Government ; and of their
anxious Wishes for a peaceable Accommodation
of the present unhappy Differences between the Co
lonies and the Parent State, The Petition from the
County of Anson was fubferibed by 227 ; that from
the Counties of Rowan and Surrey by 195, and that

Last Thursday Evening was married by the Revd.
Dr. Auchmuty, John Allen, Esq; of the City of
Philadelphia, to Miss Johnston, Daughter of David
Johnson, Esq; of this City; a young Lady of great
Merit and Beauty,
We hear from Poughkeepsie, that on the 21st ult.
a few Friends to Liberty met at the Houle of Mr.
John Bailey, about two or three Miles out of Town,
and ere&ed a Pole on his Land, with a Flag on it,/
bearing ,on one Side The King, and on the other,
The Congress and Liberty ; but the Sheriff
of Dutchefs County the next Day, attended by a
Judge of the inferior Court, two of his Majesty's
Judices of the Peace, and a Constable, with some
others, Friends to Constitutional Liberty, and good
Oider, cut the fame down, as a public Nuilhnce.
Capt. Wade from the Bay of Honduras, in
forms us, that sundry Vessels were arrived there from
different Parts of Europe; and that about 30 Days
before he came in, he spoke with Capt. Rycker, in
a Schooner belonging to this Place, from Jamaica,
bound for Pensacola ; and that nine Days after he
, failed, he spoke with Capt. Periam from the Bay for
this Port, having failed from that Place before Capt.

The House of Mr. Benjamin Hathaway, of Mor

By a Gentleman who left Montreal the 13th of
last Month, we have the following Advices, viz.---
That upwards of 1200 of the Inhabitants of that
Place (chiefly French) had signed a Petition to his
Majesty, for the Repeal of the Quebec Bill, lately
passed in the British Parliament, for the new Regu
lation of the Government of that Province ; and
that it was not doubted but that the Petition would
be signed almost universally by all the People in the
whole Province. That at Quebec great Pains had
been taken by the ministerial Agents, to procure an
Address of Thanks to the King and Parliament, for
framing and passing these Laws, but that only 20
Signers could be procured to the said Address.
On the Report of a Design to form an Army in
Canada to join the King's regular Forces in fighting
against and enslaving the other British Colonies ; the
Canadians were greatly alarmed, and took the belt
Method in their Power to secure themselves from
the hateful Service.--And as by the Laws ofFrance,
married Men cannot be compelled to serve in the
Militia, the Canadians considered Marriage as a
Protection, to which, since their new Laws they have
so universally had recourse, that it is said there is
hardly an unmarried man to be found in all the country.
ExtraH of a Letter from Canada, dated Montreal
24th March, 1775.
—“ The Address from the Continental Congress,
attracted the Notice of some of the principal Canadians,
it was soon translated into very tolerable French ;
the decent Manner in which the Religious Matters
were touch'd ; the Encomiums on theFrench Nation,
flattered a People fond of Compliments. They
begged the Translator, as he had Succeeded so well, to
try his hand on that Address to the People of Great-
Britain ; he had equal Success in this, and read his
Performance to a numerous Audience; but when he
came to that Part which treats of the new modelling
the Province; draws a Pi&uie of the Catholic Reli
gion, and the Canadian Manners, they could not
contain their Resentment, nor express it but in broken
Curses, Oh! the perfidious double-faced Congress;
let us bless and obey our benevolent Prince, whole
Humanity is confident, and extends to all Religions,
let us abhor all who would reduce us from our
Loyalty, by Acts that would dishonour a Jesuit, and
whose Addresses like their Resolves, are deftru&ive
of their own Obje&s.
Extras of a Letter from Pensacola, dated March 3.
" I have the Pleasure of informing you that our
worthy Friend Philip Livingtton, Esq; is arrived
here, to the great Joy of all his Friends, and the
Inhabitants in general. He failed from New-York
in October or November last, for Jamaica and this
Port, in the Schooner Rose, Henry Ogilvie, Master,
and in the Voyage from Jamaica, the Schooner was
call away near Catoche ; they got to Campeachy,
where, with much Difficulty, they obtained from
the Spaniards what they wanted, being only An
chors, Cables, and Water. Mr. Alexander Mac
kentofh, Merchant, in Mobille, Owner of the
Schooner, with whom Mr Livingston came from
New-York, died at Campeachy.
The happy Event of this universally well refpe&ed
Gentleman's Preservation, has afforded inexpressible
Satisfaction to all our Inhabitants, who had utterly
despaired of ever feeing him again."
Wednesday fen'night arrived in Town, Messrs.
Stearns and Knight, two Gentlemen of the Law in
the County of Cumberland, from whence they had
luckily escaped the Pursuit of the Insurgents. And

Hands, are to be removed, by Virtue of a Writ of
Habeas Corpus, from Northampton, in Massachu
setts Government, to this City, where they will be
regularly tried, in order to their Enlargements
A Correspondent acquaints us, Ttyat on Monday
the 3<Pof March, the Inhabitants of the Borough of
Westchester met, in-Consequence of a Summons, to
give their Sentiments upon a Queltion, whether or
not they would choose Deputies to represent them in
a Provincial Convention in this City ; when they de
clared themselves already very ably and effectually
represented in the General Assembly of this Province,
by Isaac Wilkins, Esq; peremptorily disowned all
Congressional Conventions and Committees, most
loyally repeating the old Chorus, God save the King,
which was seconded by three hearty Cheers ; and then
the jolly Freeholders and Inhabitants spent the Day
with Hilarity and good Humour over their Tankards
and Bowls.
To-morrow a general Meeting cf the Inhabitants
of the County of Westchester, is to be held at the
White Plains, to determine whether or not Delegates

by an Emission of £.30,000 of a Paper Currency.
There are two Veflels arrived at Marblehead from
Falmouth, in 6 Weeks, and bring Prints as late as
the loth of February ; but as no other Papers than
the Boston Evening Pod, have been received at the
