Brom Dominica we hear, that there has been lately
very great disputes between the Council and Assem
bly of that island, relative to a bill for laying a duty
of four and a half per cent, on the produce ; inso
much that the Council sent a message to the Assembly,
that they ' had unahimoufly come to a resolution to do
no farther business with their House ; in consequence
of which the Assembly addressed his Excellency Go
vernor Shirley, requesting him to suspend the mem
bers of his Majesty's Council, dissolve the House of
Affembly,.or adopt such other remedy for the evils
complained of, as his Excellency should think meet.
Accordingly, the 15th of June, his Excellency, by
message, required the attendance of the House of
Assembly in the Council Chamber, and, addreffirig
both Houses, lamented that instead of putting an end
to the session with a fpeecli conveying such an ap
plause as proceedings distinguish for wisdom and
utility could merit, that such heats and animosities
had been introduced as seemed to make a reconcilia
tion between both Houses impracticable, and a disso
lution of the Assembly unavoidably necessary. He
consoled himfelf that no endeavours had been unem
ployed by him to obviate such a step, though he was
forty to fay they had not had the desired effect; He
assured the House of Assembly that from the experi
ence he had had of their ready attendance on public
business it was with great relu&ance he diffqlved their
House ; but had the fatisfa&ion to think that it was
©ne amongst the number of those expedients they
themselves had pointed out for the ease and tranquility
of the colony.
WATERTOWN, July 31. ,
There has been a very heavy Cahnonade at Roxbury
since One o'clock this Morning. We have not yet heard
the particulars. The Ceofge Tavern is burnt.
Thursday last Passes were again granted to the Inhabi
tants of Boston, in consequence of which a Number, of
Persons have since left the Town, but they were not per
mitted to bringtheir Effects.
About I o'clock Yesterday Morning two Prisoners were
taken at the enemies outer Centry at Charleftown, and
bro't to head quarters at Cambridge; Just as they were
taken, a Party of 24 were coming to relieve them, but
the Gentry making a Noise difeovered our People to them,
otherwise 'tis probable they would all have fallen into <.ur
hands. After mutually difehargihg a few rounds the
Enemy retreated, his said with the Loss of 2 or 3 killed
or wounded.
Under the London head in a late paper is the following
paragraph, “ When the three general Officers kissed his
'' Majesty's hand, previous to their departure for Ameri
'' ca, he enjoined them, in expressions the mart affecting
" to let HUMANITY influence them more than
'' Courage, and to avoid an Engagement with those de
“ hided people if it could be done with fafety to his Per
“ fun and crown."-- Gage, How, Clinton, and
Burgoyne, what will ye answer to this in the day of im

H ARTFORD, July 25.
Last Wedrtefday Afternoon Major Skeene came
to Town from Philadelphia, and in the Evening he,
with his Son, who has been some Time past in this
Place, took leave of the Town without liberty. We
hear they have taken a House in Middletown, near
the Water Side. As the Major appears to be an
inveterate Enemy to US, and will doubtless watch
every Opportunity to make his Escape, it is hoped
cur Friends in that Place will keep a watchful Eye
over him.
NEW-PORT, July 31.
Last Thursday a large schooner came into this harbour,
supposed from Boston, inquired for the men of war, and
finding they were gone out, ffie immediately tacked and
flood out again, in purfuft of them.
Last Saturday the ibips Rose, Swan, and King-fisher,
with the above schooner, returned into this harbour, and
brought in 2 brigs, and 3 sloops from the Weft-Indies.
They have released one brig.
Yesterday afternoon the Rose, Swan, schooner, and a
tender, went on a cruize up the river toward Greenwich
and Providence, but on what account we don't learn, they
being not yet returned.

Extrafl of a Letter from Pbiladelpbia, dated zgtb
July, 1775.
I have a Letter from London, dated May ^, (by
the Ship Rebecca, Capt. Hazelwood; who failed the
firft June) lays, <: You will find by the Papers, that
Dye have received an Account from Salem, of the
Defeat of Col. Smith, and the precipitate Retreat' of
Lord Percy.---Thi^ Intelligence, so contrary to the
Expectation of Government, who had daily announced
the Americans Cowards; has panic (truck Admini
stration, and their Tory dependents, and has efta
blimedthe Spirits of the Sons of America, in this
Metropolis, and the Friends to Freedom, in the most
exalted Manner. It is impossible to describe the
Shame and Vexation which are visible in the Coun
tenances of North and his .tyrannical Abettors ;
they are constrained to acknowledge the Regulars
were the Aggressors; and equally forced to admit the
Intrepidity of the Americans: But what alarms
them most, they expert every Hour to hear General
Gage's Army is cut off, or meanly Sheltering them
selves in the Cattle, or on board the Men of War.
In the mean Time Stocks here have a Shock, and the
People denounce Vengeance againff Bute, Mansfield,
.North, Sandwich, and their ignominious Adherents.;
I impatiently wait the next Intelligence."

Committee of Safety, Philadelphia, July 28, 1775.
WHEREAS the Continental Congress have, by.
their resolves of the 18th instant, recom
mended, that all officers above the rank of a Captain
be appointed by their refpe&ive .Provincial Assemblies
or Conventions, or in their recess by the Committees
of Safetv, appointed by said Alfemblies. or Conven
tions. And that all officers be commissioned by the
Provincial Assemblies or Convention, or in their
recess by the Committees of Safety, appointed by said
Assemblies or Conventions.
The Committee of Safety, appointed by the
Assembly of Pennsylvania, do therefore request the
Cdmmitte^s.of the City and Liberties of Philadelphia,
and of the several counties in this province, to make
a return to the Committee of Safety at Philadelphia,
of all the officers of the Military Affectation, in
order that cbmmitlions may be made out for them,

turfed crow I believe have got it." He further said, that
he had made a memorandum of what passed two days
after it happened, and that he then deposed wnat he did
upon refrelhing his memory from that memorandum : —
Also that he understood that Rufhmere meant that either
the fubferiber, or Tunis, or some of the family had taken
that money in order to defraud Hawxhurft.
The above narrative is offered to the public to fliew
that tho' the fubferiber was non-suited on the trial, yet
that such non-suit was not granted for any other reason
than that Burr would not declare on oath, what he had
before certified under bit hand ; and also to shew tv the
public, that he hath been ill treated by the laid Burr, and
(put to above Sixty-five Pounds costs, in prosecuting bis
Laid suit, exclusive of-the loss of tin^ and incidental
charges, and to caution other peffons from making the
like dependance upon the certificate of such persons.
