It is said that a mett'age will be lent to Par liament from bis Majesty this day, to require that a Regency may be formed to exit! for fix months, that he may be for that time wholly abftraded from public conterus. This Regency is to be vetted in a Council, of which the Prince of Wales is to be the head, and such is the temper of the Prince, that what-* ever is for the advantage of the state, gains his ready concurrence.

Extralt of a letter Jrom Halifax , AW«-sre //«, to an inhabitant of this town, dated Oetober aa, 1788*. “ 1 am now to acknowledge the receipt of yours of the 6ih of May last, aud you may j be allured I made every enquiry concerning the unfortunate gentiemeu you mentioned, viz. Mr. Purviance of Baltimore town, and Mr. Ridout, whom I formerly knew in Ma ryland. The latter had the good fortune to get l'afe 16 Detroit about the beginning of June lafl, and I left him at Montreal in July. The best accounts I could receive of Mr. Purviance, were, that he was beat to death by the squaws for their entertainment: it was a tragical close of the life of a gentle* man, wherhad beeu a refpeftable merchant for upwards of thirty years. "But ltill more tragical was the end of poor young Mr. Mitchell, of Virginia, who, together with his father, was taken faft May ; it'is too te dious aj§d painful to relate, fufEce it to far, it was more barbarous than the inanuer in which Colonel Crawford was tortured. Thcfe things had such an effect upon my spirits, that l t believe it would have been impofiible for me to be a good Biitifh l'nbjeft at Detroit, whne such things continue to be pratirfed in the ludith couuiry. I laboured to find out it no poilible plan could be adopted to put by Ucgiets a Hop ;o the ravages and depredations of v* s ‘C lavages, confident with the honor and - iaicicrt of the weiletu country generally*, nor at the fame time inconfiflent with the digrtity or iuteieil of the United States, and think I have hit upon the expedient. It is not as yet . public, as thereby I might incur the refetit luent of both patties for the freedom.l hive taken in treating of the Btitilh with the Indians, and likewise the arrogv.tc of the United States in claiming the right to the Indian country under the treaty of peace in 17SG Bur you may be allured humanity dictated the lent iin cuts to me, fttch as they arc, and the real and efientiai interest of the welleni country r, which Ido firmly believe in time, and that time not very dirtant, will be one of the firft countries in tire world.
