George Merchant, a Private in Capt. Morgan's
Company of Riflemen from Virginia, who went to
Canada with Col. Arnold left Fall, was taken Frife
ner with two Indians and a New England Soldier,
passing over the River St. Lawrence. Merchant was
lent to England to be hanged, but never was even
examined, and the other three were kept close Prifo
mers in Quebec, confined in Irons :---He left Briltol
the 24th of March, and arrived at Halifax in 23
Days, tarried there 10, when he with several Masters
of Vcffels that had been taken by the Ministerial
Cruizers, hired a final! Vessel to bring them to New
bury ; but by Reason of contrary Winds put into
Old York last Thursday, and came to Town by Land
Yesterday, to General Ward, who soon dispatched
him Ex press to General Washington :---By him we
have the following important and very interesting
Advices, viz.
HALIFAX, April 23.
Tuesday Afternoon last arrived his Majesty's Sloop
Viper, with some Transports from the Weft-Indies,
being Part of the Fleet which was drove off this Coart

BRI ST OL, February 17.
The Weft-lndia Traders outward all take Guns ;
The Captures of the homeward bound would
alarm the Merchants and distress, those are yet
unprovided.
Extras of a Letter from an eminent Gentleman in
London, to his Friend in America, dated Feb. 7.
“ Lord Howe is appointed Commander in Chief
of the Fleet, the Commander at Land is not yet de
termined. Lord Cornwallis is now ready to fail from
Cork with 3000 Men for Virginia, to meet General
Clinton. Tne Plan is to march through that Colony
and attack Philadelphia by Land, if impractical le by
Sea; they reckon up.n Paper to have an Army of
30,000 mostly Germans, in America, by June. Bur
goyne is to retake Canada with 10,000 Men; if the
Passage over the Blue Ridge is fortified, that Way
will be impracticable. If Offers of Settienient, &c.
are preparel to fling into the Camp, in German, when
the Germans arrives, it must have a great Effe&.---
Thev trust to the Slaves, but more to the Scotch
among you.
“ The Generals talked of are Amberft, Count La
Lippe or Harvey, the lad is most probable;
“ A General of the firft Abilities has offered to go
over, if I could assure him of being received by the
Congress. If the Ministerial Efforts do not succeed
this Campaign, it is over with them."

of Albany.
“ Gentlemen,
<' Some Ships of War with Troops arrived the
4th Infant at Quebec, which obliged our Troops to
raise the Siege. We loft about 200 of our Sick, who
were too ill to be removed, and a few ethers who
were out upon detached party Guards, some of our
Cannon, and almost all our Provisions, so that our
Army buffers much for Want of Victuals, as none
are to be had in Canada."
Extract of a Letter from Coracoa, April 13, 1776.
By the Accounts we have here the French are
determined to strike a Blow somewhere, but it is not
yet known where. I was at Port au Prince about 5
Weeks ago, arid they had upwards of 3000 Soldiets
there, and as many more at Cape Nichola Mole, and
5000 at Cape Francois ; God knows their Intent.
Hispaniola is made a free Port to all Nations to take
in Sugars and Coffee. The French People in general
are sorry for the unhappy Times 5 their constant
Toasts are Washington and Lee.
Last Friday Week information was given to our
Congress, that some Men on Long-Bland were Coun
terfeiting Continental Money, also Massachusetts,
Connecticut and New-York Currency ; a Party of
Minute-Men were ordered out the fame Day, in
search of there ; they were all taken with what Cash
they had struck off, likewise their Press, Tools, &c.
They were brought to Town last Tuesday, and
committed to Goal.
We further learn by the Extraßs from the St.
James's Chronicle, of the 19th of March, inserted in
the Halifax Gazette, That General Burgoyne was to
fail for Quebec with 10,009 Troops, and retake it if
in the Hands of the Rebels, and then proceed to
Montreal, St. John's, &c. That General Gage
and Lord Howe, with 7000 Troops, were to join
General Hpwe at Balfon, at which Place it is supposed
there is 8000 Gage t@ remain as Governor of
Maffichufetts, while the Generals Howes are to
attack and beat the Rebels from their Potts ; they
are then to secure their Embarkation and proceed' to
New-Yoik, land there and occupy Hwdfon's-River,
and proceed up and join Gen. Burgoyne from Quebec,
and establish a Chain of Forts round New-England.
—Allo that about 100 Sai) of Frigates and Sloops of
War are to line our Coast, it is said three deep, to
cut off all Communication between the Colonies.
That the above Troops are to be Hessians, who enter
into Pay before they, march, and Hanoverians and
British ; the foreign States are fubfedized for two
Years after the Troops shall be returned to their own
Land again, if ever that should be.

N EWPO R T, May 8.
WHEREAS his Britannic Majesty, in conjunction
with the Lords and Commons of Great- Britain,
has, by a late Aft of Parliament, excluded the Inhabi
tants of these United Colonies from the protection of his
Crown And whereas no Answers whatever, to the
humble Petition of the Colonies for Redrcis of Grievances
and Reconciliation with Great-Britain, has been, or is
likely to be given, but the whole Force of that Kingdom,
aided by Foreign Mercenaries, is to be exerted for the
Dtftiu&ion of the good People of these Colonies.—And
whereas it appears absolutely irreconcilable to Reason and
good Conscience, for the People ot these Colonies now to
take the Oaths and Affirmations necessary for the support of
any Government under the Crown of Great- Britain ; and
it is Necessary that the Exercise of every Kind of Authority
under the said Crown should be totally fupprefled, and all
the Powers of Government exerted under the Authority of
the People of the Colonies for the preservation of Internal
Peate, Virtue, and good Order, as well as for the Defence
of @ur Lives, Liberties, and Properties, against the* hos
tile Invasions, and cruel Depredations of our Enemies.
Therefore, Refolded, That it be recommended to the
refpeftive Affemblics and Conventions, of the United
Colonies, where no Government Sufficient to the Exigen
cies of their Affairs has been hitherto established, to adept
such Government as shall, in the Opinion of the Reprefen
, tatives of the People, best conduce to the Happiness and
' Safety of their Constituents in particular, and America
i 4 epral,

In PROVINCIAL CONGRESS,
New-York, May 18, 1776.
ORDERED, That any of the Field Officers of

Incomparable Worm-destroying
SUGAR PLUMBS,
Necessary to be kept in all Families.
S 0 exceedingly valued by all People who have had
of them in Great-Britain or Ireland, for their
trardeendant Excellency in the destroying Worms of
all Kinds, both in the Bodies of Men, Women and
Children, by not only breaking the Knots in the
Duodenum, or Gu.tt next the Stomach, but they pass
through the fmailelt Parages of the Body, and purge
away those ropy and Ilimy Humours which are the
Catrie of those pernicious Vermin, and the Source of
many oilier Disorders ; they are one of the best Purges
in the whole World for gross bodied Children that are
apt to breed Worms, and have large Bellies; their
Operation is mild, fafe and pleasant; they wonder
fully eleanfe the Bowels of all ftiff and clammy
Humours which flop up the Parts, and prevent the
J%ce of Food being conveyed to the Liver and made
h. od, which is often the Case with Children, and
dquhnded with a hard Belly, ttinking Breath, fre
qfart Fevers,'Rackets, and * decay of Strength in
the lower Parts : Likewise fettled Aches and Pains
id the Head, Swellings, old Sores, Scabs, Tetters
or Breakings out, will be peffe&ly cured, and the
Blood and Skin restored to its original Purity and
Smoothness ; They Purge by Urine, and bring away
the Gravel, and effectually Cure all Obftru&ions of
the Urine, or Ulcers in the Kidneys. They at once
strike at the true Cause of the Scurvy and entirely
destroy it, and all scorbutic Humours and Effects,
Root and Branch, so as never to return again ; and
what makes them more commendable is, they are full
as agreeable to both Taste and Sight, as Loaf Sugar ;
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
Distempers are very common and troublesome to
Families, and the Want of these Plumbs are the
Ruin of many Childrens Constitutions.
These Plumbs enrich and sweeten the whole Mass
of Blood, carry off all gross, corrupt and putrid
Humours, and create a frefh and healthy Complexion
in such as are affected by any putrid Matter.
The Plumb is a great Dieuretick, eleanfing the
Reins of Slime; it expels Wind, and is a sovereign
Medicine in the Cholick and griping of the Guts. It
allays and carries off four Vapours which occafisn
many Disorders in the Head. It opens all Obftru&ion
in the Stomach, Lungs, Liver, Reins and Bladder ;
causes a good Appetite and helps Digestion. It
hath been found wonderfully fuccefsful to such Per
sons as are going into Chronicle Distempers, as
Asthmas, Phthificks or Shortness ofßreath, Dropsies
and yellow Jaundice. Now I hope all impartial
Persons are fatisfied, that the Medicine which works
upon such Humours, will almost teach any Distemper,
if not too far gone, since Corruption and Putrefaction
are the fore-runners of all Diseases; therefore no
better Phyfick can be taken for all Ages, Sexes and
Ctyftitutions, from Infancy to an old Age. These
Pambs are highly serviceable to the Female Sex,
fr&n the Age of 14. to 20 Years, and from 4.0 to 50,
Each Box contains one Dozen of these Plumbs.

viz. Of forming a new Mode of Government. ;or entering
fully into an Independence upon Ggeat-Britain: It is
therefore desired, that when the People are cr!k6ted toge

giving such Inftru&ens to their Deputies as may enable
