Yesterday afternoon the King Fisher Sloop of War, weighed anchor and proceeded to the North River, in order to protect two Transports, which lately arrived here from Boston, to take in necessaries for carrying on the Siege of that Place.
On Tuesday arrived the Ship Earl of Dunmore, Captain [John] Lawrence, in a short Passage from London. and Yesterday, the Harriott Packet Boat, Captain Lee, in 7 weeks and 3 days from Falmouth, by whom we have the London Papers to the 23d February.
Capt. Lawrence informs us, that one paper of the 23d Feb. (which we could not get) mentions the vote having passed the house of commons, for the suspension of the several American acts.
