During Colonel SCHUYLER's Captivity in Canada, his Gratitude to his unfortunate Countrymen, was with- out Bounds, his Table being ever open and free to thofe in Diftrefs; and we hesr he has, out of his own private Purfe, expended upwards of 20,000 Livres among his diftreffled Countrymen, in redeeming ther from Captivity. All the Men of War and Tranfports, who failed from Louaifbourg with the Garrifon and Inhabitants of that Place and itsDependencies, are all {afe arrived at Plymotith and Portfmouth, in Old-England :~ ‘The Governour and his Lady, with feveral French Ladies and Officers, were immediately upon their Arrival fent off for Nerth- Hampton, that Piace be- ing appointed for their Refidence.

The Great and General Court or Affembly of this Proviace, which ftood prorogued ta the 13th Inftant, is further prorogued to Friday the 2g9th Day of December Inftant. Tharfday laft in the Forendon, was perform’d on the Common in this Town, a fine Exercife of light Field Cannon, by the Companies of the Royal Ar- tillery, before a valt Number of SpeQators, to great Satisfaltion : In the Courfe of the Exercife a Trial was made with one of the Cannon, to fhow how often they cculd charge and difcharge it in a Minate, which wids regularly perform’d ten Timesin 58 Secands. : : Laft Week a Veflel arrived at Plymouth from Carolina, the Mafter of which informs, that he faw a large Ship afhore in the Bite of Cape Hatteras, and was told by a Veflel he fpoke with juft after, thatit was Monf. Chateleau, who has lately been fo often menticned in the publick Papers, that he was drove afhore there in a hard Gale of Wind, and that the People’s Live: were faved : te 2lfo informs, that abeut four Hours after he left the Cape, he met with three Englith Privatcers, and inform’d them of what he had feen and heard as above ; vpon which they immediately prcceeded to the Cape, and we hepa they will foon bring a more authentic Account cf tliis Affair. Monf. Chateleau on the 17th ult. which isthe latt Account we have of him, was but a little riiore than oneDegree and an [Half to the Northward - of Cape Hatteras, which, confidering the hard Gales of Wind which ufually happen in that Latitude at this Seafon of the Year, we are not without Hopes that the above Account will prove true. Yefterday Noon a Woman in Wing’s Lane, who had been for fomeTime paft difordered in her Senfes, was found hanging in her Chamber, By the lalt Veffels from Louifbourg we learn, That on the z2d of Oftober, a violent Storm happened at that Place which drove oa Shore 125ail of Merchant- men, and in all Probability they wili not be got off. We hear that feveral Topfail Vefiels are in atCape Cod, waiting for a Wind to proceed for this Place ; one of which is from Scotland, but brings ro later Advices than we have by the Way of New- York. Wednefday lalt died at Martha’s Vineyard, the Reverend Mr. Experierice Mayhew, in the 86th Year ;" his Age. ‘ PORTSMOUTH. & The Publick are defir’d to beware of being impofed on by a trifling Adver- tifement in the Bofton New:Papers relating to Ames’s Almanack for the Year 1759, printed hereq wherein the wife Noddles infinuate they are counterfeit, &c, which general Charge is on purpofe to cover the Au- thors Deceit 5 — Asthey are aftham’d to point out any one particalar, I will do it for them : they fay " feweral Lines are mifflaced— All they can mean is, the Vulgar Motes Tor the Gregorian Yeear are onthe back fide of the Front Page in that printed here, which is the proper Place, as may be feen by dm-ss Almanack for the prefent Year~— In their’s it is flofied in at the Datiom of the third Page after De- cembler, becaufe they were pinch’d for Rocm where it ought to have been —The next generai Charge is, the Diftance of [orme of the Stages on the Road, and elpecially what <vas peculiar to their Province ; which is an abfolure Falthood, for itis exallly agreable 10 their own from Bofton to New Haven ; and all they can carp at i, if it can be cali'd a Miftake, there is one Mile Differerce between Milford and Stratferd. Another is, the Valze of Coin are awrong ; and this mighty Detriment is, inftead of a Grain of Silver being worth Gne penny balf penny, it fhould have been one penny_Farthing, OldsLTenor, which Trifles are in fome Copies : fhould I proceed any further, it would be like taking a Maul to kill a Fiy. I could eafily amule the Publick with the Rife, Progrefs, and prefent Situation of Ames’s Almanack, together with a Differcation, interfperfed with Mar- ginal Notes, on the prefent contending Printers in Bofton,relating to that Affair, and fhow wherein they have, and for what Reafon, called each other Coun- terfeits, piratical Printers, &c. which would be too tedious at prefent, but perhaps may ferve for a fu- ture Speculation in the Dearth of News, and then it would be a little like the Contention of Twiddle de and Twiddle Dum. But as thefe have all joined their Forces together, they fcem to incline to {hift that Chara&er upon others. But what is moft to my prefent Purpofe is, Ames’s ALmaNacks, printed on the beft large Demy Paper isto be fold by Daniel Fowle in Portfmouth, by the Dozen, as cheap as in Bofton. Thofe Almanacks with the Names of Draper, Green and Ruffe/ and Fleet are eafily difcovered by the dark coarle Paper, on which they are printed. As a Number of my Almanacks will foon be fent to Bofton, every one may judge and examine for himfelf.
