Gazzette ofjuly 3d.
By his Excellency Lieutenant-General James
Robertson, Governor of New-York, &c.
&c. &c.
rir^HE Commander in Chief having fhewntbe
, great confidence he reposes in the citizens
of New-York by trusting his Majesty's interest
there, to their zeal, loyalty, ane gallantry, I per
suade myfelf that every citizen will with alacrity
claim his title to a share of the militia duty; that
none may be deprived of this, and that those
whose zeal would lead them to appear whenever
called for,may not be called for too often, 1 think
proper to -declare,
That all persons ate to perform the militia,
duty,excepting the Ministers of God's word,his
Majesty's councellors and principal servants whose
avocations to religious and civil iieccflarily pre
vents their attendance on military duties..
All persons who from age or infirmity are
enable to aft, may do duty by substitutes, pro
viding those they offer are judged fufficient by
the Colonel of the regiment, or commanding of
ficer of the corps to which they belong.
If any of the gentlemen of the learned profef
fions find themselves so ufefully employed as to
be enduced to avoid the honor of appearing in
person, they are supposed robe judges of the im
portance of their own time, and may a& by pro
per fubihitutes.
As no person deserves proteaion in aplace, of
which he refufes to contribute to the defence ;
every perlon who refufes to appear when fum
mened to his militia Duty is to be confined in
the main-guard by the Colonel or commanding
Officer of the corps to which he belongs, where
he is to be kept till further orders.

To the several Colleflors of state Taxes,
Gentlemen,
IT isa disagreeable cireumftance, that the payment of
Taxes is so much delayed: What can be the cause,
but misinformation ? Many of you have this idea, that ex
ecution is not to iffiie; so far is this from the case, that no
longer than in May last the General Assembly puffed the fol
lowing resolve. " Refolvcd by thjs Aflcinbiy, That the
Treasurer take effi dual care to enforce the collection of
taxes according to law" As the fubferiber hath hitherto
endeavoured to comply with Ads of Aflembly,> especially
those relating to his office, nothing, but the most vigorous
exertions, can prevent him from complying with the above
resolve. That the taxes may so be paid in for the future,
there may be no expence to the Collectors, is the wish and
desire of gentlemen, Your most obedient humble fevant,
JOHN LAWRENCE, Treafuier.
