PHILADELPHIA, Sept.6.

Extract of a Letter from London, July 3.

"Mr. Wilkes Seems to be enjoying the solid advantages of his popularity with little noise. The Boston affair is a general subject of conversation, but like every other American concerns so enveloped with prejudices, and misrepresentations that the still small voice of truth and candour is not heard.. They are Rebels, Aggrieved . with a long &c. of Ministerial epithets. -

"I am sorry to find an observation made concerning America, verified in England. Every Englishman considers himself a King of America and peculiarly interested in our subjection, it gratifies his pride, and he is at the same time free from any apprehension of suffering himself. As to relief from the wisdom and tenderness of Administration, hope itself is gone, even with our most sanguine friends. We have no other resource but in our own virtue and resolution, which our enemies allow will prevail if we can but persevere."

Extract of another Letter from London..

"The Abington Resolves are too flaming and rash. They are rather like the transient flashes of passion, than the cool steady, equal flame of patriotism and liberty, which though it may assert its own rights with vigor and energy, yet means not to extend its resentment beyond due bounds, and to subvert the first principles of order and government."

Extract of another Letter from London.

"Stocks have fallen much within these ten days, some of the monied courtiers having sold out, leads many people to apprehend the nation will be engaged in a War e'er long.

"I shall be sorry to hear that Boston, New- York, and Philadelphia, have concluded to abide by their old agreement of non-importation without admitting a number of necessary articles : It is not only injuring many worthy people, who subsist by their business in each of those cities at present, but it is turning the trade to Montreal, Rhode-Island, Maryland and Virginia. The quantities of goods gone to those places are very great. Orders now in London from Maryland say,--If Philadelphia adheres to their old resolutions, then send four times the quantity that you are to otherwise."
