Art. 1. Four Cherckee Indians fball be delivered up to be put to death in the fromt of the camp 3 or four green fealps bra’t in, in 12 nights from this day. Art. M.

Late Yefterday Afternoon, the Harriot Snow Packet Boat, Capt. Bonnel, arrived” here with the Avguft Mail from Falmouth, which fhe left the 15th of that Month; but have little Room and lefs Time, can give only an Extra of two out of the Prints brought by her, viz. That the Battle {aid to have happened be- tween Prince Ferdinand and the French, was not general, the Attack having been made on the Mar- quis of Granby, on the 16th of July, at Fellinghau- fen, who bravely defended himfelf for a confidera« ble Time, till reinforced, when he obliged the Ene- my to retreat, and both M. Broglio and Pr. Soubife, had feperated, the former retiring towards Pader- born, and the latter towards Minden, and pafled the Roer ; and that both armies were in great diftrefs for want of provifions : [Thus the two formidable armies have been baffled in their projeét, which was to beat the allied army, and conquer Hanover ; then they would have talk’d of exchanges and reftitutions. ] That nothing of importance had happened on the file of the Pruffians, Auftrians or Ruflians, except fkirmifhes,—That the principal town in the Ifland. of Goree was reduced to athes the 14th of March, {ave three houfes only. RS Cologs, Fuly 21. Onthe 16th at bresk of Day, M. Broglio renewed the attack with frefh troops, and employed ne lefs than 30,000 men ; but the allies maintained their ground with a fcadinefz beyond example.—The army of Soubife were far from be- ing idle : on the contrary, they sttacked the right of the sllied army, under the hereditary Priace, Duke Ferdinand retiring towards Ham, to avoid being furrounded, end to reftore his communication wxsh the Marquis of Granby. = At length, about feven in the evening, M. Broglio’s corps being quite in dil- order, and M. Soubife being sble to make no im- preflion, & retreat became neceflary, as they had gbove 6000 wounded, moft of whom they were fortunate enough to carry off. Both the French armies fell back to the Roer, and as it is impofiible for them to fubfift,M.Broglio will be obliged to retire to the Main and Caffel, and Prince de Soubile to the Lower Rhine.—Thus they have costrived to begin and end thelr campaign at once. -‘ On the z7th of July the whole Army decamped, partof which went in purfuit of M. Broglio’s, and the other in purfuit of Soubile’s forces, having plen- ty of Provifions.
