Boys, (onfifting of about 150 men, all armed, carne
to the heufe of one Hornock, near Kilian, in this
county, about nine miles from this town, which they
farrounded; and fired several shots into, until they
imagined all within were killed ; then breaking open
the door with a fledge, they began to enter the home:
Mean while Hornock and his Brother were in a little
parlour with guns charged, waiting for an opportunity
to difeharge them among.thole rioters, and perceiving
a iargeteng entering the house, they fired upon
them,-when two or three of the White Boys fell
groaning to the ground, but were inllantly bawled
away bytheir associates, who growing inoredefperate,
Hornock fired a second time, and killed one man,
who was likewise instantly carried off. Ihe captain,
or leader of this desperate band rushed towards vie
parlour door huzzaing, and crying out, , Courage
boys, the day is our own ;" whereupon Hornock
answered him, “ Not.yet. captain," and flrot him
'dead on the foot. Then the White Boys retreated
with OK seated precipitation, carrying off thur dead
and wound, , exceptdheir captain. Hornock, who
neck Tr '. ..ere defence, is parish clerk and proctor
of Kilian."

“ A letter from Marseilles, dated July 6, bringsj
advice, that a ship is arrived there which faijert from ;
Algiers the 27th of Jdne, which had on board the|
wives and children of the French, English, Dutch,l
and Swedish Consuls. The Commander of this ;
vessel declared, that the day before his departure]
there appeared before that port a Spanish ship of warl
and a frigate, which continued at a small distance ; I
that the Dey had received several expresses from dif-|
ferent parts to inform him of the grand Spanish |
armament, and was accordingly making the greater
efforts, to defend himfelf. The Dey had an army of
140,000 men, with 3000 pieces of cannon mounted ; I
but that he could not muster more than eight Can-i
noniers to manage this formidable armament, andl
that the troops in general were Very indifferent difei-j
plined,"---The letter concludes, “ that there were|
great disagreements in the city ; that the Dey's life|
was thought to be in danger ; and on the whole every 1
perlon was in the utmost conftefnation."'

Advice is received in town of an engagement be

reinforced by other Barbary States, wherein feveralof
the Spanifb men of war were funk, amongfl which

obtained a complete viflory, and that with a savage
brutality peculiar to tbofe infidels, they massacred num
bers of the Spaniards in cool blood.
It is said that cloatbing for three thousand troops,
Canadians, was sent offyefterday: and that the fame
contractor has orders forfitting up sevenf even thousand more

Among Captain Cook's difeoveries, it is said, be has
I found an island in the South Seas. It is 160 miles long,
1 14.6 broad. The climate delightful, and the foil of the
ms luxuriant fertility. Sugar-canes, cocoa trees,
cinnamon, andnuzmegs, among the fpontainous growth.
I The natives are not numerous, and of a mild and ci

"Iri : ch the Bth inriant, the Spanuh fleet
apm red before Algiers, but did not attempt to
bombard the town ; they failed past the town, and a
little way above it landed 8000 of their troops, and
their provisions, expecting to have a,long siege.
Next day appeared a prodigious large army of Moors,
blacks, '&c. who, though almost undisciplined, at
tacked them with such vigour and bravery, that they
killed Soo Spaniards, and wounded 2000 ; this
daughter obliged the Spaniards to re-embark, which
they did in such precipitation, that they left their
provisions behind them. The Admiral consulted
what was belt to be done; and as they had no
prorilions on board, it was resolved to return to
Carthagena.
Extras of a letter from Portsmouth, July 28.
“ A small ship came to Spithead last night. When
the cudom-houfe boat was going on board, the
Captain of the Snip told them he would fire on them
if they did not keep off. A boat then went off from
the Admiral's ship, but they would not let the officer
go on, board. The Captain and one Gentleman came
on shore, and went in a post-chaise and four for
London.
“ Arrived the Magdalen schooner from Virginia,
with dispatches, and Lady Dunmore arid family,
and this morning they set out for London. No

Exlrafkof a letter frm Portfmofflb, July 30.
“ Capt Simmons has ralcen the command of the
Cerberus frigate, in the room of Capt. Chadds, and
yesterday iff: Lieutenant Hart, and 2d. Lieutenant
Bishop, a Serjeant, Corporal, Brun), and thirty-fire
private Men of the Marines, embarked on board the
iarr^ ship, in lieu of a like number left at Boston,
by Capt. Chadds ; and f!iis morning amExprefs ar
rived from the Admiralty with orders to take two
more Marine Oncers on board, to do duty at Boston,
one of which, whole turn it is. Itfea duty, is said not
to exceed twelve years of age, and notwithflanding
all the Solicitations of his friends, is obliged to go ;
and as the frigate is only to be caulked, she is expell
ed to return with dispatches for General Gage in a
very few days."
This morning a Cqmrmflion puffed the Great Seal
of England, constituting and appointing General
Gage to be Captain General and General Governor
over all North America. 1 #
We are allured it is under consideration to form a
Parliament, or General Council, for all the Provinces
in America, something similar to that of Ireland,
th. Governors and some particular Officers to form
an Upper House.
Orders are given for the Serjeants and Corporals,
as well as private men, belonging to the Militia, not
to be absent out of the county to which they belong
in future, without a furlow of leave for that pur
pose.
This morning forty Recruits were fentoff from the
Savoy, accompained by a Serjeant's Guard, to Ports
mouth; where they are to be shipped for America.
This morning two houses of rendezvous were
opened in St. Catharine's, and a bounty offered to
Seamen that would inlift there, to go on board the
ships that are ordered for Boston.
Some are of opinion that the five regiments,
viz. the 17th, 27th, 28th, 4.6 th, and 55th, the
Officers of which are ordered immediately to join
their regiments in Ireland, are not intended for Bos
ton, but part for South-Carolina, and the other for
some intermediate Port between that and Boston, in
order to keep the Provincials from fending any
assistance to the last-mentioned Port.
It is remarkable, there were not so many British
officers killed and wounded in the battle of Minden
(though the greatest loss of the allied Army was
amongst the English) as there were at the late battle
