Captain Harr failed from Cowes the 4th of Sep
tember, in Company with three Transports, having
on board a large train of Artillery, and about 200
Matroffes, bound to Boston, under Convoy of a 50

coming out this Fall.
A Letter from Bristol fays, “ From the present
Disposition of the People, we are in Hopes our Mi
nistry will fee their Error, and heartily endeavour to
accommodate Matters with America, as they must be
convinced it is not in their Power to effeft their
Schemes by Force."
The 26th ult. departed this Life, Mr. William
Ward, of the Manor of Philipfburg, in the County
•f Westchester, aged 105 Years, 4 Months, and 26
Days ; he was born in the Town of Fairfield, in
Connecticut, was a worthy good Man, bore an ex
cellent Character, had the free Exercise of his Senses
to the last Moment, and the faying of the Royal
Psalmist was verified in him, i. e. “ I have been
young and now am old, and I never have seen the
Righteous forfaken ; nor his Seed begging their
Bread."
Last Thursday Evening died in the gzd Year of her
Age, after a very short Illness, Mrs. Catharine Bayard,
Wife of Nicholas Bayard, Esq; of this City ;---a Lady
so eminent in Piety, and so accomplished in every Sphere
in which she moved, that her Departure is not only the
Grief of her inconsolable Hufcand, but the Cause of
great Distress among her numerous Relatives and Ac
quaintance. She has left five Children too young to
know their Loss, and a Name like precious Ointment to
those who love the Lord Jesus in Sincerity.
The fliip Maria-Wilhelminha, from Charleftown,

By a Letter from Philadelphia, dated last Thursday,
we learn, That a Schooner was just arrived there
from New-Providence, the Matter of which reported,
tint a Ship of War and two Transports arrived at
that Island from Boston and demanded all the Cannori
and Warlike Stores in the Place, but was not per
mitted to take #ff any Part of either of the Articles ;
however the Soldiers, confiding of one Company
were embarked and failed.
• The 24th of August, the Brig George, Capt.
Moore, of this Port, was cast away at Pensacola, in
a violent Gale of Wind, in. Company with a Schooner
from New-Providence, and a Brig from Mobille ;
and in the fame Gale the Diligent Sloop ot War,
Capt. Davy, loft her Masts, on her Passage down
from Jamaica.
Capt. Moore took his Passage in the Packet from
Pensacola for South-Carolina, and there was obliged
to purchase a small Vessel, in Company with a Capt.
belonging to Philadelphia, to come home in, and to
get out as well as he could, and got here last Saturday
after a Passage of 19 Days.
Capt. Robinson, in a Ship from Jamaica for Bristol,
was cast away the 24th of September, on the Martiers ;
andout of five Galeons, that failed from Campeachy,
four were difmafted, two of which put into Georgia, two
more into South-Carolina, and the fifth supposed to be

WILLIAMSBURG, 0& it.
Some time last week Lord Dunmore was alarmed
with information that 19 pieces of cannon were fitted
up, and would soon be placed on the wharves, &c.
in Norfolk, to annoy the. fllips of war, and that a
number bf men were daily expected from Williamf
burgh, who were to fire them from behind hogsheads
filled with sand. Yeflerday fe'nnight, in conse
quence of the above intelligence, his Lordship sent
ashore a party of soldiers, under command of two
officers, who marched through Norfolk to the place
where the cannon were, destroyed 17 of them, and
carried off two for their own use, without moleftati
en. The above cannon we are confident were never
intended for such a purpose ; on the contrary, they
belonged to sundry private gentlemen, who had them
removed there for fafety.
We hear from Norfolk, that Capt. Matthews, of
the Norfolk minute-men, Mr. William Robinson,
and Mr. John Hancock, have been taken prisoners
by Lord Dunmore, but for what we cannot learn.
A large hoop from St. Euftatia, mounting sixteen
Ax pounders and a number of swivels, is said to be
gone up the bay with a large quantity of gun pow
der. Mr. Goodrich of Portsmouth, whose vessel
Lord Dunmore fufpe&s of having brought in a sup
ply of that article lately, is confined in irons on
board a man of war.

Army in Canada, arrived in this City, with the fol-,
lowing important Intelligence, viz.
THAT the Furtrefs of Chamblee was taken the iSch
Irftant; the Garrison Surrendered Prisoners of
War :-—To facilitate its Redu&on, the Canadians car

them were defeated with much Loss. Their formidable
Schooner was funk by pur Cannon: Two Stands or
Colours were taken at Chamblee, We have taken such
a Quantity of Powder, and Ammunition of every Kind,

The Houses burnt on the 18th October at Falmouth,
in Cafco-Bay, by Capt. Mowett, amounts to 139
Dwelling-Houses, and 278 Stores, without one fmgle
Person of the Inhabitants being hurt.
The following is what Capt. Mowett sent the People of
Falmouth, soon after his Arrival before that Town.
Canceatix, Falmouth, October 16th,' 1775.
AFTER so many premeditated attacks on the legal
prerogative of the best of Sovereigns, after thel
repeated instances you have experienced in Britain's long
forbearance of the rod of correction, and the mamfeft ;
and paternal extention of her hands to embrace again and ;
again, have been regarded as vain and negatory ; and in |
place of a dutiful and grateful return to your King, Jnd 1
parent state, you have been guilty of the most unpardon-|
able rebellion, supported by the ambition of a sett of }
defigaing men, whose insidious views have cruelly imps'- )
ed on the credulity of their fellow creatures ; and at last I
have brought the whole'intb the fimp dilemma : Which 1
leads me to feel, not a little, the wes of the innocent of
them in particular, on the present occafio.n, from my|
having it in orders to execute a just punishment on thel
Town of Falmouth, in the name of which authority, I 1
previously warn you to remove without delay, the hum^n 1
specie out of thefaid Town, for whiclf purpose I give ycu
the time of two hours, at the period of which, a red
pendant will be hoisted at the main top gallant mast head,
with a gun. But Should your imprudence lead yen to
Shew the least refinance, you will in that case free meof
that humanity so strongly pointed out in my orders, as
well as in my inclination, I do also obferVe, that all
those who did on a former ' occasion 'fly to the King's Jhip
under my command, for protection, that the fame door fs
now open to receive them.
The Capt. of t^e Tamer Frigate took the Powder
and Cath put of the Galloons, on their Arrival at Caro
lina, but the Spanish Captains in a few Days after took
Charge of the Money themselves.
The Schooner Mary Anne, Capt. Martino, from
this Port, for Barbados, was spoke with in Lat. 25,
51, Lon. 58, 80, by Capt. Mersey, who arrived here
last Week from St. Übes.

of men, women, and children, by net only breaking the knots
in the Duodenum, or gutt next she ftomacb, but they gafs
through the fmallef parages of the body, and surge away
those ropy and slimy humours which are the case of those
pernicious vermin, and the Source of many other disorders ;
they areone of the bfpurges in the whole world for grejs
bodied children that are apt to breed worms, and have large
bllies ; their operation is mild, faje and pleafeint ; they
wonderfully cleanse the bowels of all Jiff and clammy hu
mours which sap up tbs parts, and prevent the juice of
food being conveyed to the liver and made bleed, which is
often the case with children, and is attended with a bard
belly, finking breath, frequent fevers; rickets, and a decay
of frengtb in the tower parts : Likewise fettled aches and
pains in the bead, fuellings, old fores, scabs, tetters, or
breakings cut, will be perfectly cured, and the blood and fin
rforeddo its original purity and smoothness; they purge by
urine, and bring away the gravel, and effectually cure all
tb,ructions cf she urine, or ulcers in the kidneys. I'bey at
once Jirike at the true cause of the feurvy and entirely defray
it, and all fcorbutick bumsurs and effids, root and branch
so as never to return again ; and what makes them more com
mendable is, they are full as agreeable to both safe and fight,
as loaf fagar ; 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 difempers are
very common and tr&kblefome to families, and the want of
these plumbs are the ruin of many childrens confutations.
These plumbs enrich and fwteten the wbo:e mass of blood,
c “ r ry off d.iprofs, corrupt and putrid bumours, and create
a frfb and beaaby complexion in fueb as are affected by any
putrid matter.,
The plumb is a great Dieurerick, cleanfrig the reins of
slime ; it expels wind, and is 4 sovereign medicine in the
cbolick and griping of the guts. It allays and carries cf
four vapours which occafon many difeorders in the bead. It
opens all obfruffians in the ftomacb, lungs, liver, reins and
bladder ; causes a gold appetite and helps digefion. It bath
been found wonderfuly fuccefsful to fueb persons as are
going into chronicle difempers, as afibmas, pbtbifcks, or
Jbortnefs if breath, dropfe s and yellow jaundice. Now I
hope all impartial perJons are fatisfed, that the ynedicine
which works upon fueb humours, will almost teach any
dfemper, if not too far gone, face corruption and putre-
Jaftion are the fore-runners of all diseases; therefore no
better plyfak can betaken for all ages, sexes and conjiitu
tions, from infancy to an old age. These plumbs are highly
serviceable to the female Jex, from the age of 14 tz 20
years, and from 40 to 50. Each box contains one dozen of
these plumbs, price 8 frillings, with printed directions.
