HE Conqueft of QUEBEC is fo fudden, fo far- prizirg, and {o flupendous a Blefling of Provi- dence upon our juft Canfe, that it requires fome time to contemplate it’s Circumftances, belore one can fpeak of it with Propriety. The Britifh Troops have followed their Enemies into the Recefles of thac frozen'country, where they feemed to be fecured byNature with Snows, Fogs, and Racks, againft the Approach of the moft injured. Buf we have overcome all Obftacleson Land and Water; our Seamen have failed, and failed without Lofs, up that intricate River of St. Lawsence, fo infa- mous for Shoals and Shipwrecks. Qur Soldiers have traverfed inhofpital Plains, been expoled to all the Ex- tremiiies of Weather,and have {caled almoit inacceflicle Mountains to find thofe Foes,whofe remaining Courage was grounded on a Suppoficicn, that they were not to be attached, and vainly looked upon themlelves as invin- cible, becaule their Pofts were inacceflivle. Bur, with all the Advantages that Situation could give, they had that of Superiority in Number.. "The ufual Situation of Things, was reverfed, the Afliftants were but few, thie DeJendants were numerous., They had -fuch Advantages as were commonly thought to warrent Succefs: They had Leifure to Form, they had numerous Batteries in Front, and a regular Fortrefs in their Rear: Yet with all thele Advantages they were - beaten ; beaten by Troops that had gone through incre- dible Fatigue in arriving on the Ground on which they fought ; formed as they arrived, and engaged as foon as there formed. But what was it that lent thefle bold daring Men that indefaiigable S:eadinels oy which they furmounted all Obftacles,and that irrefiltible Impztuofity with which, after all this Fatigue, they charged and routed Forces {uperior, inallAppearance, in every military Advantage? The Example of their Ofiicers, the Honour ot their Country, and the Conlciouine’s of having Juftice on their Side. It was not the favage Luft of Dominion ; the Defire of acquiring other Mens Properties, or an enthufiaftic Notion of fpreading Univerfal Monarchy, that enabled them to perform thefe Wonders. It was the Hopes of giving that Safety to our Colonies by Arms, that never could be obtained by Treaties: It was the noble Refolution of putting an End to thele Burbarities, that Savages them/elves would have bzen afhamed of committing, had they not been ftimulated thereto by the artful Suggeftions of thole, who boaft moft of being civilized. It wasthe glorious Ardour of giving Peace and ProteCtion to the unhappy People thus deluded,; and reftoring Tranquility to America by the only Means that it can be reltored, the depriving thefe Diiturbers of Mankind of their Weapons. And thereby impofing opon them a Neceflity of being quiet. Thele are the Circamftances that enhance their Glory, adorn their Vilory, and ought to endear them fur ever to that Country to which their Behaviour does fo much Honour. O&. 27. Ithas beeninfinuatéd in fome of the public Prints, that a want of the due Remittance to General Amherft, was the true Caufe of his not being able to join the brave Wolfe, before Quasbec. This Report gains Credit, aad for want of Tuch Remittance, ic is added, that the srmy of the former was for fom:T'ime even in great Diftrels, from which it was extricated by the General’s Engagement of his private Fortune, for the Reptyment of certain neceflary Sums, which he had been at length fupplied with from one of our Colonies. To what latent Caufe this Capital Mif- carriage was owing, futare Enquiry may bringto Light. The Puablick have a Right to expeét it. The Caje of the French. Bron(wick drives them, Ferdinand beats them. King.... flays them. graves them. hurta them. tears them. How fcares them. Bol.....cowes them. Brod.....rakes them. Hawke takes them. Rod flogs them. Of....burns them, Towal.....ends them. Nothing mends them. The Achilies man of war, arrived at Plymouth from the Bay, biings an account, that there are feven frigates and 130 fail of tranfports in Quiberon Bay, and three frigates and 50 fail of tranfports ac Port L’ Orient, waiting an opportunity to put to fea ; and that a detachment is made from Sir Edward Hawke’s {quadron to cruize off Cape Finifterre to look out for Mon(. Bompar’s {quadron, expcéted hourly from St. Domingo. Nov. 9. A letter from Paris dated the 23d alt. fays « The bad fuccefs of our armies bas giver rife to very Je- rious refi-Gions at Court. On receiving the news of the taking of Quebec. a grand council ewas beld in the King's prefence, 1o deliberate on the propereft wmeafures for re- pairing the immenfe liffis we have fuffired, which if not Jpeedily remedicd, will draw sn calamitics that never can be furmounted. Some members faid that it was become ab- falately neceflary, either tomake a final cffort, or ferivufly to think of peace. Others declared, openly for a peace ; but in anfwer to thefe it was alledged, that it would be an indelible blot on the bonor of France, to think of peace before they bad done their utmofl to give a fatal blow to England, which might enadle France to make peace on bonorable terms. This laff advice, thy difapproved by many, was in the end agrecd to 5 and a refolution taken bo Wolf make a defeent in Treland or in Scotland. It was [aid the King wasfill in a condition to execute fuch an enter- prize, and that France would be the laughing flock of all Europe if fbe did not revenge the blows fbe bad received, end the defamatory libels difperfed by tze Euglifb in al. noff every flatein Europe. ““ We have received certain advicz that Prince Ferdi- nand has fent a flate of the forces under bis command ta bis Britannick Majefly, and at the fame time reprejented the expedicncy of attackeng our army. in order to difl ize it from Gieffen, and evin from Franckfort. The court bas Jent notice of thefe things to the Mar/bal d Etrees and ae Contades, and defired them to be on their guard.” PHILADELPHA, January 10.
