CAMBRIDGE, June 8.
Tuesday last being the Day agreed on for the Ex
change of Prisoners, between 12 and 1 o'Clock, Dr.
Warren and Brigadier General Potnam, in a
Phaeton, together with Major Dunbar, and Lieut#
Hamilton of the 64th on Horse-back ; Lieut. Potter
of the Marines, in a Chaise; John Hilton of the
47th, Alexander Campbell of the 4th; John Tyne,
Samuel Marcy, Thomas Parry, and Thomas Sharp,
of the Marines, wounded Men, in two Carts; the
whole escorted by the Weathersfield Company,
under the Command of Capt. Chester, entered the
Town of Charleftown, and marching slowly through
it, halted at the Ferry, where, upon a Signal being
given, Major Moncrief landed from the Lively, in
order to receive the Prisoners, and fee his old Friend,
General Putnam :---Their Meeting was truly
cordial and affectionate.---The wounded Privates
were soon font on board the Lively; but Major
Moncrief, and the other Officers, returned with
General Putnam and Dr. Warren, to the House of
Dr. Foster, where an Entertainment was provided
for them. About 3 o'Clock a signal was made by
the Lively, that they were ready to deliver up our
Prisoners ; upon which General Putnam and Major
Moncrief went to the Ferry, where they received
Messrs. John Peck, James Hews, James Brewer,
and Daniel Preston, of Boston; Messrs. Samuel
Frost and Seth Russel, of Cambridge ; Mr. Joseph
Bell of Danvers, Mr. Elijah Seaven, of Roxbury,
and Caesar Augustus, a Negro Servant to Mr. Tile
fton, of Dorchester, who were conduced to the
House of Capt. Foster, and there refreshed ; after
which the General and Major returned to their Com
pany, and.fpent an Hour or two in 2 very agreeable
Manner. Between 5 and 6 o'Clock Major Moncrief,
with the Officers that had been delivered to him,
were conduced to the Ferry, where the Lively's
Barge received them; after which General Putnam,
with the Prisoners who had been delivered to him,
&c. returned to Cambridge, escorted in the fame
Manner as before. The whole was condu&ed with
the utmost Decency and good Humour, and the
Weathersfield Company did Honour to themselves,
their Officers, and their Country. The Regular
Officers exprefled themselves as highly pleaded ; those
who had been Prisoners politely acknowledged the
genteel, kind Treatment they had received from their
Captors; the Privates, who were all wounded Men,
expressed in the strongest Terms, their grateful Sense
of the Tenderness which had been shew them in
their miserable Situation ; some of them could do it
only by their Tears. It would have been to the
Honour of the British Arms, if the Prisoners taken
from us could with Justice have macle the fame
Acknowledgement. It cannot be supposed that any
Officers of Rank, or common Humanity, were
knowing to the repeated cruel Insults that were
offered them ; but it may not be amiss to hint to the
Upfarts concerned, two Truths, of which they seem
to be totally ignorant, viz. That Companion is as
essential a Part of the Character of a truly brave Man
as daring; and that Insult offered to a Person entirely
in the Power of the Insulter, finells as strong of
Cowardice as it does of Cruelty.
We have the Pleasure to inform the Public, that
the Grand American Army is'nearly completed.
Great Numbers of the Connecticut, New-Hampshire
and Rhode-Ifland Troops are arrived; among the
latter there is a fine Company of Artillery, 'with
four excellent Field Pieces. Many large Pieces of
battering Cannon are expected soon, front different
Places ; twelve Pieces, j 8 and 24 Pounders, with a
Quantity of Ordnance Stores, we are informed, are
already arrived from Providence.
Last Wednesday fe'nnight a Number of Provincials,
under the Command of Col. Robinson, made an
Acquisition of about 500 Sheep, and 30 Head of
Cattle from Pettick's Island.
And on Friday Night last the Provincial Troops
made another Acquisition of about 800 Sheep and
Lambs from off Deer-Island, together with a Num
ber of Cattle.- Major Creaton, who commanded
this Party, also took a Barge belonging to one of the
Men of War, together with 4 or 5 Prisoners.

NEW-PO R T, June 12.
Last Tuesday a schooner from Philadelphia, loaded
with provisions, bound to Nantucket, was brought in here

Nantucket, and the chief their families had to depend on
for a considerable time to come.

great number of the most refpe&able inhabitants of

Extract of a letter from Cadiz, dated April 15.
<< There is now in this port a very large fleet, con-
Sifting of 29 Ships of war, (16 of which are of the
line) and 80 fail of transports ; their destination
mot certainly known. No merchant fllip will be
permitted to fail until the departure of this fleet,
which is fixed for the 25th instant,"
By advices from Lisbon we understand the fleet is

To the oppressed Inhabitants of CANADA.
Friends and Countrymen,
ALARMED by the Designs of an arbitrary Mi
.nifry to extirpate the Rights and Liberties of all
America, a Sense of common Danger conspired with
the Dictates of Humanity in urging us to call your
Attention, by our late Address, to this every important
Since the Conclusion of the late War, we have been
bappy in confdering you as Fellow-fofferers with us.
As we were both entitled by the Bounty of an indul
gent Creator to Freedom, and being both devoted by
the cruel Edicts of a despotic Adminifration to common
Ruin, we perceived the Fate of the Protefant and
Catholic Colonies to be frongly linked together, and
therefore invited you to join with us in revolving to be
free, in rejecting with Disdain the Fetters of Slavery,
however artfully polifoed.
We mos fmeerely condole with you on the Arrival of
that Day, in the Course of which the Sun could not
fine on a Jingle Freeman in all your extenfve Domi
nion. Be assured that your unmerited Degradation pas
engaged the mos unfeigned Pity of your Softer Colonies ;
and cue flatter ourselves you will not, by tamely
bearing the Yoke, fuffer that Pity to be supplanted by
Contempt.
When hardy Attempts are made, to deprive Men of
Rights befowed by the Almighty,---when Avenues are
cut through the mos solemn Compass for the Admission
of Defpotifm,---wben the plighted Faith of Govern
ment ceases to give Security to loyal and dutiful Sub
jefls,---and when the injidious Stratagems and Ma
noeuvres of Peace become more terrible than the mos
sanguine Operations of War,---it is high Time jor
them to assert those Rights, and with bones Indignation
oppose the Torrent of Opprefion ruJbing in upon them.
By the Introduction of your present Form of Govern
ment, or rather Form of Tyranny, you and your
Wives andyour Children are made Slaves. You have
nothing that you can call your own, and all the Fruits
of your Labour and Indufry may be taken from you,
whenever any avaricious Governor and a rapacious
Council may incline to demand them. You are liable,
by their Edicts, to be transported into foreign Countries,
to fight Battles in which you have no Interef, and to
spill your Blood in Conflicts, from which neither Ho
nour or Emolument can be derived ; nay, the Enjoy
ment of your very Religion, on the present Syflem, de
pends on a Legislature, in which you have no Share,
and over which you have no Controul, and your
Priefs are exposed to Expulsion, Banifoment and Ruin,
whenever their Wealth and Possessions furnijh fefficient
Temptation. They cannot be fare that a virtuous
Prince will always fill the Throne ; and Jkould a
wicked or a careless King concur with a wicked Mi
nifry in extracting the Treasure and Strength of your
Country, it is impossible to conceive to what Variety
and to what Extremes of Wretcbednefs you may, under
the present Efabli/bment, be reduced.
We are informed ,ou have already been called upon
to wafe your Lives in a Contef with us ; should you,
by a Compliance in this Infance, assent to your new
EJiabliJbment, and a War break out with France,
your Wealth and your Sons may be font to perifo in
Expeditions againf their Islands in the Weft-Indies.
It cannot be prefamed that these Considerations will
have no Weight with you, or that you are so loft to
all Sense and Honour. We can never believe that the
present Race of Canadians are so degenerated as to
possess neither the Spirit, the Galantry or the Courage
of their Anceflor. You certainly will not permit the
Infamy and Disgrace of fueb PuJillanimity to rest on
your own Heads, and the Consequences of it on your
Children for ever.
We for our Parts are determined to live free, or
not at all, and are refolded that Poflerity /ball never
reproach us with having brought Slaves into the
World.
Permit us again to repeat that we are your Friends,
not your Enemies ; and be not imposed upon by tbofe
who may endeavour to create Animosities. The tiding
the Fort and military Stores at Ticonderoga and
Crown-Point, and the armed Vessels on the Lake, was
dilated by the great Law of Self-prefervation ; they
were intended to annoy us, and to cut off that friend
ly Intercourse and Communication which has hitherto
fubfifed between you and us : We hope it has given
you no Uneafaefs, and you may rely on our Assurances,
that the^e Colonies will pursue no Measures whatever,
In CONGRESS, June 12, 1775.
AS the great Governor of the World, by bis su
preme and universal Providence, not only con
duHs the Course of Nature with unerring Wisdom and
Reffitude, but frequently influences the Minds of Men
to serve the wife and gracious Purposes of his provi
dential Government ; and it being at all Times our in
difpenfible Duty devoutly to acknowledge bis superin
tending Providence, especially in Times of impending
Danger and public Calamity, to reverence and adore
bis immutable fuflice, as well as to implore bis mer
ciful Interposition for our Deliverance :
This Congress therefore, considering the present cri
tical, alarming, and calamitous State of these Colonies,
do earnestly recommend, that THURSDAY, the zotb
Day of July next, be observed by the Inhabitants of
all the Englifo Colonies on the Continent, as a Day of
public Humiliation, Faffing and Prayer, that we may
with united Hearts and Voices unfeignedly confefs and
deplore our many Sins, and offer up our joint Suppli
cations to the all-wife, omnipotent, and merciful Dif
pojer of all Events, humbly beseeching him to forgive
our Iniquities, to remove our present Calamities, to
avert those deflating Judgments with which we are
threatened, and to bless our rightful Sovereign King
GEORGE the Third, and inspire him with Wisdom to
difeern andpurfue the true Interest of all his Subjects,
that a speedy End may be put to the civil Dis cord be
tween Great-Britain and the American Colonies,
without further Effufion of Blood, and that the Bri
tifb Nation may be influenced to regard the Things that
belongs to her Peace, before they are bid from her
Eyes ; that these Colonies may be ever under the Care
and Protection 0, a kind Providence, and be prospered
in all their Interefs; that the Divine Blefling may de
fend and ref upon all our civil Rulers, and upon the
Representatives oj the People in their several Aflem
blies and Conventions, that they may be directed to
wife and effectual Measures for preserving the Union,
and securing the just Rights and Privileges of,be Co
lonies ; that Virtue and true Religion may revive and
flouriJb throughout our Land; and that America may
soon behold a gracious Interpefaion of Heaven for the
Redress of her metny Grievances, the Reforation of
her invaded Rights, a Reconciliation with the Parent
State, on Terms constitutional and honourable to both ;
and that her civil and religious Privileges may be se
cured to the latef Poflerity : And it is recommended to
Cbrifians of all Denominations to dffemble for public
Worfoip, and to abfain from servile Labour and Re
creations on said Day.

We yet entertain Hopes of your uniting with us in

Reason to believe that Jbould we join in imploring the
