<< When I last wrote to you, I mas at Crown-
Point on my Way hither ; me arrived here on Monday
the id Inflant, and on Wednesday me set out to go
down the Lake as far as St. John's, which is about
12 Miles diJiant, in order to find out the Difpoftion of
the Canadians. We went on thither with great Cheer
fulness, till coming within about a Mile from the Fort,
the Enemy began to fire at our Boats with Cannon,
which obliged us to land ; we immediately formed,
find marching toward the Fort through the Woods, we.
received a smart Fire from the Indians and Regulars
who lay in Ambujb to deflroy us ; we returned the
Fire very freely, as you may well suppose : This
continued about an Hour, when we obliged them to
: retreat to the Fort.---They killed eight of our Men,
and wounded seven, amongst the latter are Major
Hobby and Capt. Mead, of Col. Waterbury's Regi
ment.---Of the Enemy we killed nine, and wounded
fifteen ; among their killed is Matthias Johnson. After
this fatiguing Piece of Bufnefs, we thought it necessary
to throw up a small Breafl Work for our own Secu
rity, which we very focedily did, about three Quarters
of a Mile from the Fort ; but being so very near, they
kept continually throwing their Bomb Shells at us, and
not being prepared to answer them in that Way, we
were obliged to retire a Mile farther from them ; we
tarried that Night, and till Ten in the Morning, when
wy re-embarked for the Ifand.

Extract of a Letter from General Schuyler, to the
Provincial Congress at New-York, dated at Ticon-
We are informed from cndnishted AntSor^ „th/-
Lord William Campbell, Governor of South-
Carolina, has fled with the utmost Precipitation, on
board the Man of War in the Harbour. The
Committee of Charleftown having very fortunately
discovered that his Excellency had employed ope
Cameron, an Indian Commissary in the interior
Parts of that Province, to engage the Indians in the
Ministerial Service, who had a&ually inlifted 600 of
them, and furnifhed them with every Necessary in
order to Butcher the back Inhabitants. This Plan
was discovered by a Gentleman who seized the Express
on his Way from said Cameron to the Governor,
whom he knew to be difaffe&ed to the American
Cause, and conveyed the Dispatches to the Provincial
Committee. The above Gentleman disguised himfelf
in a Drover's Habit, and attended the Express to the
Governor's House, and heard the Conversation be-,
tween them, and then discovered the whole Plot to
the Committee.
Monday Night last arrived here from Bristol, the
Brig Cornelia, Capt. Kennedy, in 9 Weeks. He
met with the late terrible Gale of the 11th of Sept,
in vyhich he lay on his Beam Ends 4 Hours, loft both
his Boats, Quarter Rails, his Fore Top Malt, &c.
On his Passage he spoke with the following Veffejs,
viz. August 23d, a Ship from the Grenades, bound
to Europe, 36 Days out, all well.—Sept. 7th,
Lat. 31, Long. 60, with the Brig Joke, of Boston,
from Georgia, bound to Liverpool, 15 Daysout :---
15th, in Lat. 39, Long. 63, with the Ship Clide,
from Virginia, bound for Glasgow, John Boyd,
Matter, 8 Days out, who informed him that two
Days before he spoke with a Sloop from New-Lon
don, called the Sally, bound for the Weft-Indies,
that had had 30 Hories on Deck, 13 of which he loft,
with his Mass, in the Gale of the nth of September.
The zzd of September, Capt. Kennedy saw a
double decked Sloop, partly under Water, her Bow
sprit standing, her two Pumps on her Quarter-Deck,
had two Cabbin Windows, her Stern painted a Stone
Colour, with Quarter-Lights, looked like a new
Vessel, had a Parcel of Spruce hanging over her
Quarter-Deck, and appeared to be a Vessel of about
80 Tons Burthen.
*Oh !to&, th mdtb^ again fa out, and about
Ten in the Evening arrived at the Place <wbere <we
tarried the Night when we were up before ; and then
fating out to march to Cbambli, just as we came to the
Breafl Work that we before had thrown up, we re
ceived a very heavy Fire from two Batteaus that
were on the Lake, with Swivel and Grape Shot, and
at the fame dime from the Savages on the' Shore : Our
armed Boats perceiving the Fire on the Lake, fired
three Twelve Pounders, one of which took the Enemy's
principal Batteau directly in the Bow, and tore her
from Stem to Stern : She immediately funk, with all
the Men in her, amounting to 35. We then proceeded
on to the Breast Work, where we killed their chief
Interpreter and one Indian. We received no Hurt at
all. In the Morning we saw their armed Schooner
of ISO Tons, carrying twelve Nine Pounders, coming
towards us ; we then thought it expedient to return
to the Ijland, until we could have more Artillery with
us, which we now have got, with a great Number of
Bomb Shells, Mortars, &c. &c. &c. We are now
immediately to embark a third Time, and are deter
mined to take the Schooner and the Fort at all Events.
We are informed, that Capt. Reed is arrived at
Philadelphia from London, and brings Papers to the
Bth of August, which gives an Account, that a
large Train of Artillery, and 2000 Soldiers are
embarking for New-York, in order to retake Ticon
deroga, &c. and that 10,000 Hanoverians are defined
for America ; that the Parliament would meet sooner
than was expe&ed ; that the Roman Catholics of
Ireland were to be allowed to take up Arms in
Defence of that Kingdom ; that it was the Opinion
of the Friends of Government, that it was high
Time the Americans mould be subdued.
We hear that the Men of War at the East End of
Long-Island, have taken four large Vessels, from the
Welt-Indies bound to New-England, laden with
Welt-India Produce, and sent them to Bolton ; three
of them belong to Jerathmael Bower, of the 'Maffa
chufetts-Bay, in which Mr. Bower has loft upwards
of io,oool. Lawful Money.

" I am dill confined with the remains of an
inveterate Difor4er. I have this Moment received a
Line from General Montgomery; he holds St.
John's besieged. The Canadians are friendly to us,
and join us in great Numbers. We have taken
Fifteen Prisoners, Seven of which are Soldiers, and
the red unfriendly Canadians and Scotchmen in the
Service of the Ministry."
By Capt. Little, in eleven days from Charleftown,
South Carolina, we are informed, that on the 1 sth of
September, the Commander of his Majesty's Ship
Tamer, and another armed Vessel pressed two of
Capt. Little's Men, 'and two Passengers, likewise
Hands out of all the Veflels they could come at, on
purpose to assist them in taking the Cannon, from
Fort Johnson, but could not effe& their Pefign ; the
Tamer's barge with a Number of armed Men went
on Shore, spiked up some of the Cannon, and threw
the Carriages over the Walls; next Morning before
Day about 500 of the Militia took Possession of the
Fort and in a few Hours had several of the Guns
mounted again ; the Fort is in good Repair; the
Tamer and the armed Vessel very prudently withdrew
from the Reach of the Cannon, and fell further down
the Harbour, where they lie. The Governor is on
board of one of them.
The 4th of September, Capt. Jarvis spoke with the
Ship Black Prince, Capt. Berry, from London, for
Philadelphia, that left the Land's-End the 18th of
August, but did not fay when he left London ; and
last Wednesday he fell in with the Brig Sally, Capt.
Nicoll, from this Port, for London, that on the

• burning into Port; the fft Instant he spoke with the
I c Tp Black Prince before-mentioned, bound Forl
I Philadelphia, from London.
When Capt. Jai vis arrived at Bristol, it was cur-
:rently reported a Body of Hanoverians were to be
Ifent to America, but before he failed the Report had
' greatly subsided, and 'twas generally luppoied that
Event would not take Place so toon as was at fiift
conjectured.
Wednesday last arrived here in 8 Weeks from Liver
pool, the Brig Havannah, Capt. Hamilton, by whom
we have Englilh Papers to the 7th of August, which,
together with Letters and other Advices by the lame
Vessel give us the following Intelligence, viz. That
a number of Transports had failed for Embden, and
ftveral more at Spithead and otherQAs, were getting
11 ady with all possible Expedition-for the fame Place,
i. order r ' >take in 10,000 Hanoverians, who with
several more Regiments from England and Ireland,
and a Regiment of Highlanders from Scotland, under
Gen. Murray, were defined to reinforce Gen.
Gage's Army at Boston^-Though some supposed
tl 1 part of the said Forces were intended for othei
Parts of America, as we are well informed that the
Ministry had it iff Contemplation to fend one or more
Regiments to Charles Town in South Carolina,
4>oo to Alexandria in Virgini, some to New-1 oik,
aid other Places ; but as it is not probable they will
fend to so many Places fufficient Numbers to give
ary Probability of Succcfs to their Designs, it seems
I,oft likely that the greatest part of these Forces are
foing to Boston, and that if it is intended that any
Either Place shall be vifred, the whole of the Remain- ;
0, ^re. to go there, A strong Scuadron of Men of
rare getting ready to Convoythefe Troops to the.
stMceof their Destination in America. They m^y
