Ellis, the Lient. Gov. Wright, has had 25 headmen and 140 Creek Indians, awho all made the {trongeft profeflion ot Friend(hip, and went awey in very good temper. The General Affem- ‘bly of North Carolina, sre diffolved, and their tréops dilbanded. The Affembly had prefented a bill for continuing their forces and “augmenting them to 6do, “but had tack’d an agent to it, which had obliged the Governor to refule his aflent, and cccafion’d their diffo- lution. Letters from Georgia, fay, they are in great expeitation that Gov. Ellis will intercede with Gen. Ambherft, that the troops which may be fent for their prote&tion, may be provided with quarters, &=, at the .. expence of the Crown, the province being yet unable to fupport fuch & burden. That Gov. Wright gives the gresteft fatisfaltion imaginable ; and that as the terrors from the Creeks fubfide, the people begin again to look out fharp for vacant lands on the frontiers.” : Saturday laft his Excellency the Governor was pleas’d to prorogue the Grest and General Court or Aflembly - to Wednefday the 18.h of this Inft.

As there is really no Merit in it, therefore it deferves to be defpis’d ; for if the Author by a Blaft of his finking Breath, could un- dermine the bafis of a divine Inftitute, every other vir- tsous A& would meet the fame Fate, and sll Things be reduced to their original Chaos,, every one doing what feemeth meet in his own Eyes. I flotter myfelf I cou!d Anfwer the whole Extre&t, and if I had bzen one of the other Sex, would certainly have attempted it if the Author had not already ex- haufted the Englith Language of its Indecency.
