Whitehall, Dec. 26. Letters received Yefterdy by Ex- ' prefs from Blichall near Carlifle, give an Account, That upon the March from Penrith thither, his Royal highnefs the Duke had received the News of the Rebel Army having quitted that Place, and lift in it only 3 or 400 Men, who, according to the bell Intelligence, conlilled chiefly of their Englilh Recruits, and Gordon of Glenbucket's Men, - Commanded by one Hamiiton. The King's Forces arrived within Si , ht cf the Town the 2 ft about Nocn, and Major General Bland had invefted it on the Scotch Side with St. George's Dragoonr, and 300 Men of BFgh's Regimept, with Orde- s to prevent any Pafl'age over the Bridge up : n the Riv. r Eden, which leads directly to the Scotch Gate. Major Adams with 200 Foot was polled in the Suburbs of the Englifh Gate, to prevent any of the Garr fon's efcaping that Way : Major Meirac at the Iri! h Gate with the fame Orders, and Sir Andrew Agnew at the Sally Port with 300. All the Horle, and the Foot Guard', were canton'd round the Town, at a Mile or two Diftance. The Rebels, who were left, made a Shew of intending to defend the • lace, firing their Cannon upon every body who appeared in- Sight of it. The Artillery fr<) m Whitehaven was expected to arrive in a Day or two at the Army, and it was propofed to have a Battery ereiled by the Morning of the 2 ; th ; after which it was not doubted but his R iyal Highnefs would be Mafter of the Town ip Twenty Four Hour-, in which he intended to leave a fufficient Garriion. The Rebels left their Cannon behind them in Carlifle, excepting three Pieces'; and M:: jor General Bland had taken 16 Carts laden with their fc Tents. Letter from Kendall, Dec, 20. / P ' On Saturday about nine o'Clcck, the Van of the ^ « Rebels, with the Duke of Perth, came thro' here, being 90 Horfes or upwards, and as we had been informed that theywere flying, the jell of them being furrounded, and they going through our Town without calling for any Thing, eur M< b fell upon them with Pitch- Forks, Sticks, Stones, Sec. killing two and taking three, with the Duke of Perth's Mail: in this Fray three of our People were ( hot, who are i l l dead. They went forward to near Penrith, but the Country being all in Arms, and the Van hearing that thofe behind were fafe, they return'd to this Town on Sunday Night to join the main Body, who were then come up. I had quartered on me 38 Men and 6 Horfes, and other People in Proportion : They took a Pair of new Shoes from me, and a Pair from my Man, worth together Tun Shillings. On Monday Morning the Van march'U out again about Five, and the Rear at Nine, after flripping Numbers of their Shoes in the Stree s, and exaCling 170 1. from the Town V . t h e I n f u l t they had r e c e i y ' d. " " - uv (\ ight about 12 the Van of our Horfe ' Sn ' eLU p ' V1Z' t i l c vork( hire Hancersand others, to the ' Number of 100. On lueiday the of our Army : marth'd in very fail, and went forward without alight- !• " ig- a n d w e kept a Sort of open Houfe for them in the f treet. It was about Four when the Duke enter'd with the Main Body, which made us fo joyful, that it was juft like raifing us from the Dead. " On Wednelday Morning his Royal Highnefs march'd outat W e n , and in the Afternoon came up with the Rear of the Rebels, ahout three MNes ( horr Of Penrith. Two thousand Foot were coming in here from Prellon from Nine o'Clock at Night till Four on Tuefday Morning, and fet out at Eight on Horfeback, and as the Stragiers came in, we mounted them as fall as poflible. The Account of the ' Aflion near Penrith Hands thus : The Rebels had placed * themfelves behind the Hedges, and firing on our Ad- ' vance Guard, kiil'd 10 and wounded 25, and three or ' fonr Officers, among whom was General Honeywood, * who was fhot in the Leg, in the Aim, and cat in the ' Neck, but it is hoped notmortaliy. Sixty or ( event/ of ' the Rebels were taken Prifoners, and 30 of them have ' been found thrown into Lowther River. Our HJorfe * flood all Wednefday Night in Order of Battle, but the * Rebels took that Opportunity of running away to Car- * lifle, where feveral of them now are, as weare inform'd. " We hear that General Hufke i< nigh them, with 3000 * Men, and cur Forces will be all up at Carlifle as this * Night. The Country being up in Arms, bring in fome ' Rebels to the Duke hourly. One Hamilton, a Captain * of their Huffars, is taken and now in Appleby Goal, ' with fome others ; and we are told Lord Elcho is kiil'd. * The Town of Whitehaven hath offered the Duke 30 ' Pieces of Cannon, 10 of them Eighteen- pounders, 2 * Twelve pounders, and the reft Ship Guns. His Royal ' Highnefs feem'd extremely well pleafed with- his Recep- ' tion in this Town ; and his Troops tell us that the whole * Country in general has fhew'd them the greatell Re- * fpeft, fcarce any Body taking a Penny either of the ' Horfe or Foot. I hope to give you a better Account ' ihortly. I am, bfc. u > CJ en o £ • P. S. I believe I have not have had fix Hours Sleep fince this Day fe'nnight, and have nothing left but an empty Cellar, an empty Cupboard, and an empty Pocket, except a Rebel Gun.' ExtraS of a Letter from Deal, Dec. 25. • f I can't help mentioning the great Succefs that has attended Admiral Vernon's taking under the King's Pay, and his Dire& ion, the three Dover Privateers, whofe Captains are known to be the beft Pilots in thole Seas, and their Veffels of the utmolt Service on Account of their Drawing fo little Water, not to mention the great Gallantry and Experience of the Commanders. And indeed that brave Admiral has made a moft excellent Ufe of them, for they have taken and fent into Dover, five Galliot- Hoys from Havre- de- Grace, which certainly ' were to aflill in the French Embarkation ; and three ' large Shallop Filhing- boats from Dunkirk to Calais, la- ' den with Military Stores, fuch as Cannon, Field- pieces, ' SEC two f unk, and twelve chafed aihore, moft of which ' have been fince wreck'd ; and a Velfel blown up, laden 4 with five Pieces of Cannon, feveral Field- Carriages, ' above a hundred Barrels of Powder, & c. befides taking a ' Dogger- Privateer of 6 Guns, and to Men; in which 4 laft Adtion, Capt. Gravener of the York, was fhot in the ' Shoulder, one of his Lieutenants in the Throat, and ' feveral of his Men wounded, fome of them mortally ; ' but the French Captain, his Lieutenant, and fome of 4 die Men were kiil'd; and many wounded. ' In this Engagement two other Privateers attack'd Capt. • Gravtner, who notwithllanding, brought off his Prize ' very gallantly, tho' in a flutter'A Condition, and mull ' have perilh'd afterwards, but that the Tryton, Captain ' Hill, an . thcr of the Admiral's Cruize,- s, took Capt. ' Graven or in tow, and conduced him fafe into Margate ' Road ; and alio gave fome Aiiiftance to the Dogger ' that was taken, by putting fome of the York's Men on ' board.— One Ship was chas'u on Shore by the Saphire, • but was not effectually oeitroy'd, becaufe the Pilot could ' not venture in nigh enough. I can wifh great Pleafure ' add, that by thi » Met: od, this brave Friend to his ' Country, has continually got pofitive Intelligence of our ' Ensm. es Views and Intention:-, as to their Embarkation; ' and no doubt terrifies them from attempting to invade ' the Country which lie guards.' Ex trail of a Letter front Dover, Dec. 2;. ' I am glad : o hear that Captain Gravener is lik? to do ' well; his AClion was a very Gallant one, having to do ' with three Frenchmen all at once, one of them a Dogger ' Privateer which he boarded and took after the firft Broad- ' fide the- others a Privateer Sloop, and a Ship of 18 ' Guns ; koth which he oblig'd to Sheer off notwithftanding ' his Malls were Shot awav.

One of the Chief Fore: gn Minifters at Paris h: s wrote to his Friends in Holland, that a Declaration of War againlt the Republick was in the Prefs: But this News however is not much believed, the Letters from Verlailles of the 19th not faying a Word of the Matter ; but on the contrary infinuating, that the French Court is inclined to an Accommodation. The Dutch are going to compleat the fourth Augmentation of their Troops, nine Battalions of which aie ltill wanting. The Number of Huffars, ia the Service of the State, is to be doubled ; and there is great Appearance that a fifth Augmentation will take place. It is in order to agtee upon every Thing relating to this Affair, that the States of Holland anticipates, for 10 Days, the Time of their Aflembling. ' T i s generally reported that great Part of Lord John Drummond's Regiment have deferted, a^ d furrSndcred themfelves to Gennral Blakeney in Stirling- Caftle. On Wednefday Evening Admiral Vernon, with a Squadron of Men of War, failed from the Downs, to watch the Motions of the French.

O y D I R E C T I O N S for the Religious Keepi n g of CHRISTMAS. I. T T ' E E P in Mind, through all the Seafon, who fe Birthit is you are to rejoice at ; and often devoutljr repeat the Angels Song at his Nativity. II. Meditate on the amazing Love of God the Fatlier. and the Son fhewn in Chrift's Incarnation ; and obferve well that the Defign of it was tj deftroy Sin and Wickednefs. III. Improve the Opportunities which offer for religions Worfhif, and imitate the Trader's Example ; compute your pall Gains and Lojfes in Religion, and examine whethec. you have laid up any Treafurt in Heaven this Year, or ar$ any thing richer towards God. IV. Remember, all the while, that nothing can be more oppofite to the End of Chrift's coining into the World, ai. d the commands of his Gofpel, than mifp: nding precious ' l ime, and giving in to Excejfes that lead to Drunkenneis and- Gluttony, V. Be careful therefore left your Temper and Praftic ® fhould highly offend him, and difrace his Religion, at the very Sealon you pretend to honour the holy Jefus, and te have a Zeal for his Cauie. VI. Wifely choofe your Affociates, and ( hun the Com* pany of irreligious and intemperate Men. and their Entertamments : or where this can't be done, draw a Comparifon. between their Words and Anions and your Saviour's Whith may well inflame your Love of hirii, and fix your Abhorrence of their Principles and PraClices. VII. Forget not that Charity to the Poor, or the fmalleft good Office ( if you are not able to do mere) to the Neceffitous, rfpecially if religious, will now, and always be very pleafing to the Redeemer, if it proceed from a. Principle of Love and Obedience. VIII. Think ferioufly, that however you may rejoyct for his Birth, if you are not born again of tb( Spirit, and thereby turned from yout Sins unto God, and interefled in Chrill'sDeath ; his fecond Coming will greatly terrify you, as it will prove to the ekrnal Sorrow of your Heart, and Damnation of your Soul.
