noble family, and was left an orphan and
an heiress at the age Of eighteen. In my
twentieth year / married Don Pedro d.
Almedor, with whom l lived in the most
perfect felicity for near sixteen mouths !;
at which time my husband (vho was an
officer in the army received orders to join
his regiment in FLANDERS.
Nothing could dissuade me from accom-
panyiug him on his campaign, though
had an infant daughter but three months
old. A battle took place Immediately af-
ter our arrival at the seat of war. l re-

village within view of the fatal field, trem-

husband, who had taken leave of me IN the
morning, and before noon was brought In
mortally wounded. He was unable TO speak,
and expired in less than an hour, leaving
me IN an agony of afflic,ion which can be
better imagined than described.
As soon as ! was able to thGk with any

so impaired his fortune, that he had lntle

Shortly before our departure for Flan-

Agreeable TO our appointment by the
Town, we waited on Capt. Wallace, who
has agreed to renew the Truce with the
town, made Nov. 18th, which is now con-
firmed under his hand; he will grant pass
es Immediately on the Truce being acceed-
cd to on the part of the town, to the Mar
ket Boats, Ferry Boats and Wood Boais,
to the lst of January, l776, then imme-
diately to be renewed, upon his honor, if
the Truce is not broken on the part of the
Town; on his part it shall be kept inyio-
late, and his people kept out of the Town.
Should boat by accident be drove from
the ships, and his people sent TO take her,
he insists that they shall no. be catched up
and sent off, as has been the case hereto
fore; for their coming after boat drilted,
ought by no means to be considered as an
infraction of the Truce and should ves-
sci with wood or provisions coming to the
town be detained, few days after the pass
is out, he will take no advantage Of il, re-

SENATE, Feb. l7.--The upper branch
Of the Assembly spent the greater part
Of to-day in the consideration of bills in
the Committee of the Whole. The
Common School bill was reported back
by the Standing Committee on Schools
and School Lands, with a number ofim-
portant amendments, which were agreed
to. The bill was then further amended
in two or three particulars, and passed
to its third reading. In its present shape
it is widely different from what it was as
originally reported. The scheme is be-
lieved to be as near perfect as is possi-
Bile to make it, at the present time. Ma
ny days had been spent by the two com
mhtees, in deliberatipg upon it, before il
was introduced into the house. Itoccn-
pied the attention Of that branch of the
Assembly for several days more, receiv-
ing during thatltime many salutary a
mendments. Since it was sent up tc

GRAFTON Of that branch and the appropri.
ate committee, for about a week. and has
received the close scrutiny and delibe.

We have no clue as to the wherea-
bout of any of the leading Patriot agita-
tors, as they have never taken any pains
to keep us informed of their doings or

from place to place through the country,
hanging upon the forlorn hope of some
lucky change of fortune in their favor,
Of which there at present seems but lit
