On the prefent EXPEDITION. By a QuUaker, S this a Time to fiddle, fing and dance, And imitate the Airs that come from France, Affemblies, Conforts, falfe delufive Charms, Vhen Thee, and I, and All, fhou’d take up Arms? Tho' excus'd. ! Thy Land, thy Liberty, thy All’s at Stake: NOW, for thy Country and thy Children’s fake, Exert thyfelf : *Tianot a Time to {pend ; But what thou haft to fpare, do give or lend : Nor murmur at thy Tax, how great fcever ; Confider that the Chance feems Now, or Never. Let each Man ftrive, juft now, who fhall do moft: The Prize is great, however great the Coft. The Romans when diftrefs'd by their badNei'bour’s Both murther’d rob’d and plunder’d of their Labours, They left their Children, Friends and Wives, To fave their Country, if they loft their Lives: *Tis juflt our Cafe ; let us not be behind ’em, Nor fear our Foes, but berefolv’d to find them. Contemn all Hazards and maintain thy Station : *T'is glorioas, Death to face, to fave thy Nation. No need of Prophefy, I plainly fee: If thou don’t rout em now, they’l {oon rcut thee. A pointed Sword hangs hov'ring o'er thy Head ; *Tis better e'en to die, than always dread. Confider what great Benefits thou'lt reap, And Honour too, great {{onours can’t come Cheap : Then let not Gain, but Glory be thy Thirft : Norbe compel'd ; but firive who fhall go firft. Whoever doesnot go, or give orlend, {If able to) he’s not his Country’s Friend. Then dear Abifhai, (tho’ thou art excus'd,) Tnlift this once,—thou wilt not be refus’d :— Go forth, and fave thy Country from Diftre(s ; In fpire of Jefuit’s Arts and French Finefs. Let AMHERST lead, and att thy Parts as Men ; Thoul’tdrive that faithlels Crew out of their Den. Then Riches, Peace and Plenty will abound ; And thou, at thy Return, with Laurels crown'd. Cuarres Town, South Carolina, Feb. 17. Our letters from Provideace, by Capt. Bill, who arrived here the 10th inft. contain the following ad- vices, viz. That on the 7th ult. arrived there a brigt. (belonging formerly to Rh-Ifland ) re taken by Capt. Beake in the Recavery privateer ; and at the fame time, the King George privateer, of New-York, Capt. Leacraft, with a floop called the Pearl Chatte- lan, pretended to be Spanith, which fhe had taken ; that the Spaniards had already owned one half of the cargo to be French ; and it was not doubted the o- ther would be found fo too. And that Capt. Lea- craft faid, two French privateers were fufpeéted to be gone to cruize upon our coaft.—If the above fuf- picion have any juft foundation, we make no doubt that his Majefty®s thips the Scarborough and Zephyr, who are going on a cruize foon, will give a good ac- count of the Monfieurs. On the 12th arrived Capt. Darham from St. Mar- tins, where it was afirmed, when he fail’d, that the redoubt, called the Dos d’Afne (being the only poft ol confequence on Guardaloupe that held out, accord- ing to our former advices) had furrendered to Gene ral Hopfon; as had alfo, afterwards, above 300 French inhabitants, who had fled for fhelter into o- ther parts of the mountains : That only five Ships of Commodore Moore’s {quadron remained at Gua- daloupe: And, that the reit were cruizing about, o as to block up Maitinique, waiting for expecled re- inforcements. By the French letters found in Capt. Pilkington’s Prize, the Vriuow Aletta, after fhe had been acquit- ted, it appears very clearly, That our enemies in the Weft Indies have carried on a vaft trade for more than two years paft with all parts of France, in Dutch (or pretended Dutch) bottoms, with great fuc- cefs till lately, by the channels of St. Euftatia, Cu- racao, Amfterdam and Rotterdam :—That the chief falors for the French at St. Eultatia, are, Governor De Windt, Barnardand James Texier, Alexander Daney, and others ; at Caracoa, M. Jarreau, and o- thers ; at Amfterdam, John Texier, Theodore van Merfelin, John and Adrian Teminck, Thomas and Adrian Hope, Clock and Dedel, Verneda and com- pany, John Naudy and Lacoudre, and others. That the American Dutch Fators receive 2 corfideration of eight per cent. for all the French effe&ts they fhip, which they do in their own names and as their pro- perty ; and there are inftances where they have even fworn {uch pretended, to be their real property : The French papers relative to fuch cargoes are gene- rally concealed very artfully, either in cafks or other- wife, and contain particular directions to whom, and in what manner, they, or the neat proceeds, fhall be difpofed of to different parts of France: The moft confiderable French Merchants of Martinique and Guadaloupe, who fhip the greateft part of their ef- fects from St. Euftatia, by Means of Governor De Windt, and the Texiers, are, De La Ferricre Con- Windt, and the dexiers, are, e ol e o e S Y PORTSMOUTH : Printed by ). FowLe, of whom this Faper may be had at One Dollar per A ftance, Larnack, Allier, Tucal, Dyjardin, Lacur, Bounaran, &c.—By the fame Papers, it is difcovered that the following fhips had French cargoes on board, viz. the Jonge Pauius, Evert Cok ; the Stadthoulder, C.

Immediately after the Deceafe of the Princels Governante the States General awrote the following Letter to the Kinc of Great- Britain. SIRE, « YT is with the deepeft concern we find ourfelves under a neceflity of informing your majefty of the melancholy event that has juft happened, by the death of her royal highnefs the princefs governante, whom it pleafed Ged to take out of this world in the night between the 12th and 13th inflant. We can well conceive, by our own extream affli&tion, for the lofs of this great and excellent princefs, the fituation of your majefty’s paternal heart on this melancholy oc- cafion. We feel it moft fenfibly,and wifth we could, by mingling our tears with thofe of your majefty, in fome meafure leffen its bitternefs. We pray that the Almighty may be gracioufly pleafed to {upport your majelty to the moft advanced age, and blefs the two illuftrious branches that are left to us, and which we cherith with all poflible tendernefs. We prefume to affure you, Sire, that we will employ all our care, and beftow our whole attention, on what concerns the rights and interefts of the young prince, and ma- dame the princefs his fiter, whom we look upon as the children of the republick. At the fame time we requeft a continuance of your mejefty’s good will to- wards this ftate. We fhall endeavour to deferve it more than ever, by the z=al and devotion with which we fhall ever be, Sire, &c.” Extra& of a Letter from a Gentleman in France, to his Friend in England. < OU bhave turned the tables upon us ; your miniftry feem to be well eftablifhed ; you have afixed point in view ; which you fteadily pur- fue : Our affairs are in a tottering condition ; No Minifter, or General, on whom we can rely.—The exile of Bernis is look’d upon as a political farce, to appeafe the minds of the people, who charge him as the fole author of the diftreffed condition of France; but as his Patronefs continues in high credit, it is probable he may be foon recalled, which will occa- fion ftrange murmurings, as they think him by no means équal to the high office he filled. Our de- figns are baffled in the empire ; our trade ruined ; our colonies in danger of being ftarved ; and this is all the effes of his pernicious councils : In fhort, we make but a fcurvy figure ; and I am afraid we fhall be obliged to leave our ndw friends to fight their own battles, as we {ee a florm gathering in the South.
