SAVANNAH, July 4.
•‘ Abut 5 o’ .. i. ck in the afrer
roor, v. hdft firing to one of ti e
their toasts Mr Jacob Fox, one
Ls corps, adting at that time as
Gui ner, the field piece was neg
lected to be fpurged properly &
left fome wad on fire in the
piece ; putting in the cartridge it
caught about half way the un
txcu guifhed wad, vhilft he was
ramn ’ing it home, and went off,
the fpunge ftafF carried off one
arm and one hand, and brok<
the remaining arm m rhre • c if
ferent places. Young Master
Robert Greer was palling ver\
imprudently about ten Heps in
front of the piece at the time ;
the fpunge ftafF took him on the
left fide and came out in front,
carrying away with it his heart
and fornt of his entrails ? He
fell and expired without a groan.
Several of the moft eminent
physicians were immediately cal
led to the afliftance of Mr. Fox ;
they at once amputated his right
arm near the fnoulder, a con
futation was then had to save, if
I Didlibie the other, which was so
much broken after ma
ture dchbeation, found ic ne
cefiary to amputate the other
rear the fhoukier about twelve
o’clock last night—we yet fear
that notwithftand'ng every pro
ftflional aid that may be afford
ed im, he cannotTurvive long,
uolefs the weather should prove
more favorable. Mr. Fox is a
young man about twenty-three
■ years of age and resides in this
con ty fcvcral milts? from sa

yesterday from Mackinac, and
brmgs intelligence that a war is
expected in that quarter, and that
the garrison was preparing for
defence.
t{ The militia at this place are
preparing, but it is a feeble mul
tcring and not capable of ren
dering much service.
“ I am of opinion that the En
glish ratten will take a part,
though not openly, with the In
dians, as fome supplies, of pro
visions and ammunition have
lately been iftued by the agents
of the Bruilh government.”
