Yesterday came to Town in the Stage-Coach from Boston, the LADY, who is said to be the Dutchess or Princess of Cronenburgh-- in some of the Southern Papers, she has gone by the above and different Names and Titles, as may be seen by our late Papers.
A Correspondent says, it is a pity this Lady came from New-York to Rhode-Island in a Packet. for had she come through the Colony of Connecticut, we should certainly have known who and what she was, as it is generally the Custom at all the Public Houses there, to ask a Stranger, what is his Name, & his Business, where he came from, where he is going, &c. &c. before they'll even give your Horse Oats.
