T per Annum, which that Money received might take off ; and unlefs partly reliev’d by the Parlizmentary Grant before the nextTax is ilived,the Burden would be tco great for the People to bear ; that if the Ship was not fent, it might be detain’d as long a while as we experienced that the laft Grant was,before aVeflel ot Force could be obtained for it’s Conveyance—As no confiderable Objetions were Raited, it was pre- fumed the Scheme was not difagreeable, even to the trading Part of the Community ; howcver, when it was known that fuch a Vote had paffzd the Houle, a confiderable Number of Merchants, T'raders, &c. ap- prehending that the Ship was defizned for the more immediate Prote€tion of their Interct, which might We are affu:’d, that Curistopnsr Kitsy, E'g; formerly Agent for this Province at Great Britin, now employed in His Majefty’s Service at New York, upon hearing of the dreadfal Calamity which had befallen this Mctropolis, generoufly order’d his Friend to pay /. zoo Sterl. for the Relief of che unhappy Sufferers. i : Donations has been received from feveral gentle- m n in the neighbouring towns, for the relief of thofe worthy obje@s of their charity.. .

Pleafant in Wit snd Humour, he foar’d on the Wings of an Eagle.— - » . The Strengen of his Spirit was powerful as the W hirlwind ; and the overflowings of his Mind {mooth and delicate. - Reirething as April fhowers, his Fancy was more beautiful than the Rainbow ; and his Thoughts brighter than the Sun.— I am forely grieved for thee my Friend ; Thou haft been plealant unto me ; 2ad thy Friendthip hath never been violated. : How quick ?

De la Clue with his Squadron fo nimble 2nd tight, On meeting Bofcawen, like a Frenchman, took fright But running too f£:ft on fome mighty defign, He loft both his legs in the year fifty nine. When Montcalm in Canada drew forth his men, (Secure in his numbers) to fight on the plain, With true Britith Spirit we broke ev'ry line, And conquer’d Quebce in the year fitty nise. Niagara, Crown Point, Ticonderoga too, W hat cannot true Britons with courage fubdue ? Such conquefts {0 nobie, fo great, and fo fine, All add to the glory of the year fifty ninc.
