The New Hampshire Gazette

By the most authentic Accounts from Time to Time received, relating to the Strength and Destination of the Enemy's Forces, it appears-- That General Wolfe is oppos'd by full three Quarters of the Force of Canada --That on the Side of Oswego, there is no Fortrefs but that of La Galette (which is of but little Strength) to oppose the Army of Brigadier Gage on their Passage to Montreal, where there is now only a Number of old Men, Women and Children--That the Troops which are at and near St. John's, are those which retired from Ticonderoga and Crown Point, upon the Advance of our Grand Army under General Amherst--That the French Naval Force on Lake Champlain is at present inconsiderable, a Vessel of 10 Guns being Commodore; but a Vessel of greater Force was a building--So that it appears that the Fate of Canada has and does depend, under Providence, either upon the Advance of our Grand Army, an Army at present with as much Health, Spirits and Unity as ever was known--or the Procedure of General Gage's Army and our Indians, towards Montreal, which must make such a Diversion in Favour of General Wolfe as would more than probably give him the Opportunity of reducing Quebeck, and all the Country around-- We have been for some Weeks impatiently expecting to hear of one or other of the Army's moving, which if practicable, and not beyond the general Plan, will doubtless be the Case-- When this good News arrives, the Betts will be six to One, that Canada will be reduced this Year; to the immortal Honour of his Majesty's Ministry, Generals and Troops; the universal Joy of all North-America; and the whole British Empire.
