A PROCLAMATION.
THE Spanish Ambassador having lately by Order of his Court presented a Declaration avowing the hostile Intention of the Catholic King against Great-Britain and her Dominions, and both Houses of Parliament having presented Addresses to his Majesty, asserting their Loyalty and Affection, and a draft Resolution to give their utmost Support and Assistance in the Prosecution of such Measures as his Majesty shall think necessary to adopt on this occasion, I have thought proper to issue this Proclamation for the Information of his faithful Subjects in this Province, that the King for maintaining the Honour and Dignity of the Crown, and in his paternal Affection to his People came to an immediate Resolution to commence Hostilities against the Catholic King and his Subjects; That Authorities are arrived for granting Letters of Marque, and until the same are obtained, I have it in Command to signify the Royal Assurances to the Owners of all Ships bearing Letters of Marque against the French King and his Subjects, that his Majesty will consider them as having a just Claim to the King's Share of all Spanish Ships and Property which they may make Prize of.
Given under my Hand and Seal at Arms, at New York, the Second Day of September, 1779.
WILLIAM TRYON.
By his Excellency's Command, B. J. JOHNSON. Pro. Sec.
A LARGE and general Assortment of Groceries, Perfumery, Confectionary, &c. arrived from New York in the 1st Fleet, and to be sold by NATHAN HART, at the lowest Rates for ready Money only.—China, Glass Ware and White Wine Vinegar.
The following are the ADDRESSES of the Parliament upon the SPANISH MANIFESTO, and his Majesty's Answer. The humble ADDRESS of the Right Hon. the LORDS Spiritual and Temporal, in Parliament assembled.
Most Gracious Sovereign, WE, your Majesty's most dutiful and loyal Subjects, the Lords Spiritual and Temporal, in Parliament assembled, beg leave to return your Majesty our humble thanks for your most gracious message, and communication of the paper delivered to Lord Viscount Weymouth by the Ambassador of the King of Spain, which we cannot but consider as a matter of the highest importance to your Majesty's crown and people; and for acquainting us, that in consequence of this hostile declaration, your Majesty had found yourself obliged to give orders to your Ambassador to withdraw from that Court.
We beg leave to assure your Majesty, that among the many proofs we have received of your Majesty's constant care and concern for the safety and happiness of your people, your Majesty's declaration of your sincere desire to preserve and to cultivate peace and friendly intercourse with the Court of Spain, cannot fail to inspire us with the highest sentiments of gratitude and attachment; and that, animated by your Majesty's example, we will, with unshaken fidelity and resolution, and with our lives and fortunes, stand by and support your Majesty against all the hostile designs and attempts of your enemies against the honour of your crown, and the rights and common interests of all your Majesty's subjects.
The humble ADDRESS of the HOUSE OF COMMONS to the KING.
Most gracious Sovereign, WE, your Majesty's most dutiful and loyal Subjects, the Commons of Great-Britain in Parliament assembled, return our humble thanks to your Majesty, for the communication of the paper delivered to Lord Viscount Weymouth by the Ambassador of the King of Spain, which we cannot but consider as a matter of the highest importance to your Majesty's crown and people; and for acquainting us, that in consequence of this hostile declaration, your Majesty has found yourself obliged to give orders to your Ambassador to withdraw from that Court.
Among the many proofs we have received of your Majesty's constant care and concern for the safety and happiness of your people, your Majesty's declaration of your sincere desire to preserve and to cultivate peace and friendly intercourse with the Court of Spain, cannot fail to inspire us with the highest sentiments of gratitude and attachment. And we beg leave to assure your Majesty, that, animated by your Majesty's example, we will with unshaken fidelity and resolution, and with our lives and fortunes, stand by and assist your Majesty in resisting and repelling all the hostile designs and attempts of your enemies against the honour of your crown, and the rights and common interests of all your subjects.
His MAJESTY'S ANSWER, in both HOUSES was in these words:
I Return you thanks for this loyal and affectionate Address. I have the strongest reliance on your support; and I trust that the spirit and vigour of my people under the Divine protection, will enable me to repel every hostile attempt against my dominions, the honour of my crown, and the rights of my subjects.
Lord North yesterday, in the House of Commons, said, That the King's servants had done all in their power to lessen the danger that might arise to the kingdom, from the circumstance of Spain's joining with France. He should, as far as his power went, take care to exert the strength of the kingdom in its defence, and he had not the least fear, if unanimity prevailed, and the military operations of Great-Britain were carried on with our accustomed spirit, but that we should still prove a match for our enemies, and maintain that superiority both by sea and land, which had so often, under the blessing of God, distinguished the arms of this country.
Several letters lately received from Ireland mention, that the forts of Kinsale and Dungannon, with sundry others, have been repaired and rendered so defensible as to make the inhabitants (among whom unity and loyalty reigns) entirely fearless of dangerous consequences of a visit from the common foe.
The East India Company are in expectation of the arrival of a packet very soon, and that they will bring the news of the Mauritius being in the possession of the English.
L O N D O N.
June 19. Immediately on the receipt of the Spanish manifest, a courier was sent off express for Petersburg; in consequence of which a large Russian squadron is expected to join the British fleet on the Bay.
The declaration of Spain is an event that has been long and universally looked for; and it is rather improbable that a Spanish war should now, for the first time, become an unpopular measure.
Orders have been sent over to Hanover, to raise 10,000 additional troops in the Electorate, with all possible expedition.
Upwards of ten sail of the line, besides those ordered with Sir Charles Hardy, are now under repair in the several ports, and will be ready for sea by the end of this month.
Letters of Marque are preparing to be issued against the Spaniards, in the same manner as was done against the French; but no declaration of war, will take place.
A letter from Gibraltar brings advice, that the Levant frigate, Capt. Murray, fell in with a Spanish frigate in the Mediterranean, which was just boarding an English Vessel, on which a smart engagement ensued, in which a ball from the Levant went through the side of the Spanish frigate, by which she filled with water and soon sank; the crew were most of them saved, and carried to Gibraltar.
The La Marchione au Point, Capt. Mainault, a French ship of 250 tons, bound from Marseilles to Cadiz, laden with bales of silk, and had dispatches on board from the Governor.

er of Cadiz is taken by the Alarm frigate, and carried into Gibraltar.
Yesterday several merchants of this city began a subscription for fitting out 12 sail of stout privateers, which are to mount from 20 to 32 guns, and as they have purchased six ships, already, they will soon be fit to go to sea, to cruise against the Spaniards.
This morning the Marquis d'Almedovar, Ambassador from Spain, embarked with a fair wind on board the James passage yacht, Capt. Baile, for Calais.
A Gentleman from Boston gives the following intelligence: The stopping, robbing, and pilfering, his most Catholic Majesty's vessels, and destroying the papers found on board, of which insists the Spanish Ambassador so loudly complains, was not done by any of his Britannic Majesty's fleet, nor by any of the English privateers, but by the rebel privateers from America under English colours, with a professed view to bring a war between the two nations; the Captains and men who have committed such depredations have made their brags of it in Boston, as a master piece of cunning, as can be made evident by a Gentleman now in London, but lately at that place.
Extract of a Letter from an Officer at Goree, dated May 9.
"Yesterday morning we came in here to take the stores and batteries belonging to the French on this little island, which is but 3 miles in circumference; but previous to our arrival here, the French received intelligence of our fleet, by a Portuguese Schooner which sailed from Madeira a fortnight before we did, by which intelligence they knew our force, so that they thought it the most prudent method to abandon it, which they did, but had not time to carry away their powder and ball, but left it behind them in two sloops and a Schooner, which they also abandoned, but they carried away most of their cannon to Senegal, which place they have, it is thought, strongly fortified; so that our Admiral does not intend going after them, because we cannot take the men of war there. Senegal is about thirty miles distant from hence by land, and this place is so exceedingly warm, that our soldiers and seamen would not be able to drag the cannon, &c. so great a distance without the assistance of horses, which we have not. Our Admiral has ordered his Majesty's ship Vengeance , of 74 guns, and the Adams frigate of 44 guns, to stay here for a month, to prevent the French from trading here, and likewise to protect the fort of Goree which we took, because we left troops there, with several pieces of cannon. After the above ships have stayed here their limited time, they are to proceed to the West Indies. Our Admiral has requested a force to be sent from England, with proper carriages, &c. to Senegal. The French Governor left Goree with all his forces as soon as our fleet hove in sight, so that we did not fire a gun; but this morning the negroes carried him as a prisoner on board the Admiral, and he is sent to England on board the cutter."
Portsmouth, June 23. The Thunderer and Intrepid men of war, with the Souhampton frigate, are sailed to join the grand fleet; also sailed the Leviathan , of 50 guns, with the Cooke trade, and other vessels from Ireland.
The Formidable of 90 guns, the Malborough , Terrible , Resolution , and Culloden of 74, and the Ardent of 64, have all been sheathed with copper, and will sail out of the harbour some day this week, to be ready to receive the orders of the Admiral: it is said they are to join the grand fleet.
The French have now eight sail of men of war of the line at Toulon ready for sea, which are ordered to join the Breck fleet.
However difficult it may be to account for the fact, it is very certain that government has not yet received any account of a junction being formed between the French and Spanish fleets, nor is there any reason to imagine that event has taken place, from the best private informations to be collected.
Notwithstanding our rupture with Spain, the Court of Madrid have ultimately refused
to join France, in her treaty with America, declaring their views shall be confined to a redress of their own injuries received from Great-Britain, and to a strict compliance with the terms of the Family compact.
We have it from undoubted authority, that the Czarina is at this time using her utmost endeavours to mediate a reconciliation between Great-Britain and France.
Our Court, it is positively said, is now entering into a conditional treaty with the Courts of Petersburg, Berlin, and Stockholm.
Letters by way of France, say, that the Spaniards laid an embargo on our ships the very morning their Ambassador delivered the rescript to Lord Weymouth.
The following intelligence is conveyed to us by a private letter received from Ternun. The Barbary powers are to furnish sufficient employ for Spain. The Spanish Consul at Fez is certainly deposed, and the court of Spain have given the Emperor to understand, that they will send no more presents till their Consul is received in due form, and reinstated in his dignities.
In consequence of some private intelligence received, orders are given for four of our best frigates to cruise two hundred leagues to the westward.
The Earl of Bristol, it is confidently said, went on purpose to his Majesty at the Levee on Friday last to offer his services, and we hear is to have the command of a fleet. Admiral Edwards is sent for home, and is to be relieved on the Newfoundland Station, by Admiral Montague.
Several Gentlemen lately returned from India, have entered into a subscription to build three frigates of 36 guns each, which when completed are intended to be presented to his Majesty.
Some fresh instructions are sent from the Admiralty, for the Commissioners of the different Dock-Yards to expedite the fitting out of ten men of war, most of which are of the line, to form a fleet of observation at Spithead, or to be in readiness to join Sir Charles Hardy's fleet, as the exigency of affairs may require.
N E W - Y O R K, Sept. 6:
By a creditable Person lately arrived from the County of Albany, we are informed, that a considerable Force from Canada had cross'd Lake Champlain, and we are in Possession of Ticonderoga, which caused a Confternation in the Northern Parts of this Province, and induced the Rebels to call on the Militia of Albany to support their Gen. Warner, posted with about 80 Men at Fort Edward, as a Frontier Guard; but such is the Reluctance of the Militia, that not forty would turn out Volunteers; many of the Loyalists of the County of Albany are daily apprehended and confined for their disaffection to the Rebel cause.
Friday evening returned from a cruize, his Majesty's ship Solebay , Capt. ——— and brought in with him the French ship Palatine , which he cut out of the Chesapeake, the 6th of August: She is loaded with 180 Hogsheads of Tobacco.
The same day returned from a cruize, the privateer Schooner Experiment , Capt. M'Pher-son, and brought in with him the Schooner Betsey , Capt. Coward, from Baltimore for the West Indies, loaded with 30 hogsheads of Tobacco: She was part of a fleet of 9 sail, bound for the West Indies: All the rest escaped.
The privateer brig Dunmore , Capt. Buchanan, arrived from a cruize last Monday, in which he took three prizes, and them sent to Bermuda; one of them was a brig from St. Eustatia bound for Philadelphia. The Dunmore was chased into Sandy-Hook by three Rebel privateers, one of them a brig of 18 guns, and fall of men.
Capt. Dillee, of the Mercury packet, left Falmouth the 17th of July, and the same day sail in with the Grantham packet, Capt. Bull, from this port, which place she left the 18th of June last.
A Schooner from Philadelphia for the West Indies, was sent in here last Wednesday; and
a Sloop with Lumber from the Eastward by the Queen Charlotte last Saturday.
Extract of a letter from a Gentleman in England, dated June 26, 1779.
"The united force of France and Spain and the clamours of a disappointed faction, had raised apprehensions in the minds of the people of the most serious and alarming nature—a few days however have given reason an opportunity of resuming her seat.
"Powerful as our enemies may be and aggravated as the picture of our danger has been by a wicked and designing party, we are yet happy to find that this little island is not in that deplorable state which our mock patriots have described, and I solemnly believe sincerely with.
"Having got the better of our fears and settled that bugbear the Spanish Rescript, we have leisure to turn our eyes to examine the real force and ability of this country. We have the happiness to know that there are at this moment 63,000 effective men actually in arms; that we have a fleet of 33 ships of the line a sea, better manned, equipped and appointed (to use the sedulous Richmond's own expression) than any fleet that ever left England; that of these, there are first rates, seven 90 gun ships, twenty-two 74's, and but one 64; that in a very few days there will be 8 or 9 more line of battle ships ready to join Sir Charles Hardy—indeed I am confidently told they will be ready for sea on Wednesday next, as every article is now exacted to compleat their complement of men.
"A bill has been brought into Parliament and on Thursday passed the House of Commons for doubling the militia, as did another bill to prevent the free and uninterrupted pressing of seamen, and to take of the privileges which the city of London and some other corporations in this particular, and to render it equal for the present, protection given by Noblemen and others to watermen on the Thames, &c.
"Several offers have been made and some accepted to levy new regiments; the gallant Col. Campbell has a warrant to raise 2000 men and command them; the East India Company, to their immortal honour, have offered handsome bounties (over and above those given by government) for raising 6000 men to serve on board his Majesty's fleet, and have further resolved to build forth with three 74 gun ships for the King's use. This laudable example will undoubtedly be followed by many other corporations; London there is great reason to think will contribute handsomely, notwithstanding the threats of master Sawbridge and others, who had the audacity to say in the House of Commons, that if the city did offer assistance and support to the crown, it would be upon condition of a change in Administration; but I am rejoiced to find the factious Alderman's expectations frustrated, the common council having rejected the conditional address.
"Under all these circumstances I confess I am entirely free from every apprehension of danger, and viewing matters in a political light, I really cannot see what ill consequences can follow this junction of the forces of France and Spain, in the end I am confident England must rise superior to the threats and treachery of her enemies. I know what are and what have been the exertions of this country, I know what are her resources, greater now than ever, there is at this instant more money in England than ever was known, I have it from undoubted authority.
"This session has been a session of enquiries, how far they have answered the views of the minority I leave you to judge. The charges brought against Lord Sandwich by the illegitimate Richmond have served very effectually to establish the character and ability of the former, and overwhelm the latter with shame and confusion. What can we think of a Peer of the realm instituting an accusation of the most solemn nature against one of the first officers of the crown? Ingrossing the attention of the House for six weeks at a critical period, and after finding every article

confuted on the face of his own testimony, and thus quitting the House with declaring, he knew he was not to expect justice from their determination?
"There was a time in this country when such a conduct would not have passed unnoticed; but too great liberty is the fault of government, and has, I fear, been the fatal source of all our evils—there is great room for reformation, and 'tis a consummation devoutly to be wished. Indeed it is a great consolation to observe a more than common decision in the conduct of administration; from thence I anticipate the most happy consequences."
"In the debate on the militia bill, Charles Fox said his political conduct was become quite paradoxical, as he was now ready to give administration, of whom he thought most contemptibly more power than those in whom he placed the greatest confidence. Lord North replied with paying a compliment to his abilities, he was glad to observe the zeal he manifested on this occasion, and he had much rather have his support than his confidence."
Extract from a Providence Paper. State of Rhode-Island and Providence Plantations. In General Assembly. August Session, 1779.
WHEREAS many evil minded persons, not regarding the ties of their allegiance to the United States in general, and this State in particular, but influenced by the forsook principles of avarice, continue illicitly to correspond with and supply the inhabitants of New Shoreham, in the county of Newport, with provisions and other articles, to the great detriment and distress of the virtuous inhabitants of this State: And whereas the said town of New Shoreham hath been for a long time, and still is within the power and jurisdiction of the enemies of the United States, whereby they obtain, in consequence of the evil practices aforesaid, supplies for themselves, and intelligence, from time to time, of the situation of our troops, posts and shores, by which means they are enabled to make frequent incursions, and thereby commit devastations, and rob the innocent inhabitants of their property, and deprive them of their subsistence.
Wherefore be it enacted by the General Assembly, and by the authority thereof it is enacted, that from and after the rising of this Assembly, if any person or persons whatsoever, being inhabitants of, or residents in this State, shall, by him, her or themselves, directly or indirectly, go or send upon the said island of New Shoreham, or any other place in the possession of the enemy in this State, or upon Long Island, or supply the inhabitants, or any inhabitants thereof, with any article or articles of provision or clothing, or any other article whatsoever, he, she or they, so offending, upon being convicted thereof, upon indictment duly presented and found, before the Superior Court of Judicature, Court of Assize, and General Goal Delivery, shall forfeit all his, her or their goods and chattels, and the rents and profits of his, her or their real estate during life, to and for the use of this State; and shall also, where the confiscation of their estates shall not be deemed a sufficient punishment, be placed in one of the Continental battalions, raised in this State, or on board one of the Continental vessels of war, to serve during the present contest with Great-Britain, provided the criminal be a male, and sufficiently qualified to be a soldier or sailor; but otherwise should the offender be a female, or not fit for a soldier or sailor, he or she shall receive such corporal punishment as the nature of the crime may require; or shall be banished, at the direction of the Court.
Provided nevertheless, that nothing in this Act shall extend, or be construed to extend, to such persons as shall act by virtue of special permits of this Assembly, or the Commander in Chief in the military department, they conforming themselves strictly to the tenor thereof. And be it further enacted, That the Act heretofore made, inflicting a penalty of Thirty Pounds for the offences before mentioned be and the same is hereby repealed.
And it is Resolved, That this Act be published three weeks successively in the Providence news-papers. A true Copy: Witness, HENRY WARD, Sec'y.
NEWPORT, Septem. 16.
A Powder Mill which the Rebels had erected in North Providence, was blown up the 28th of August last. A Providence Paper of Sept. 2, gives the following Account of it.
"On Saturday last about 5 o'clock in the afternoon a very melancholy accident happened at North Providence in this State; Messrs. Jacob Goffe and Laban Beverly, both of that town, were employed in manufacturing gunpowder at the powder mill then in motion: From the operation of the hammer a fire caught in one of the marters, and as quick as lightning communicated to a large quantity of sulphur and saltpetre stored in the mill, instantly converting the whole into a dreadful sulphurous flame, which at once consumed the mill and a store adjacent containing a considerable quantity of powder, with all the stock of materials, causing an explosion which was heard a number of miles. The unhappy Mr. Goffe and Mr. Beverly, in a moment enveloped in the flames, were burnt in the most shocking manner; having escaped therefrom with the greatest difficulty before they were entirely consumed, they were carried to a neighbouring house where they died next morning."
The Rebels have promised in several of their Papers, to give the Particulars of the Penobscot Expedition in their next, but that Transaction has been so thoroughly disagreeable to them, they have not yet been able to produce the Particulars.
The Rebel Papers are mostly filled with Translations of Committees, regulating the Prices of Provision, Labour, &c. &c.
