HARTFORD, in Connecticut, Oct. 28.
The General Assembly of this Colony have lately passed a Number of Resolutions to assert and vindicate the Charter and other invaluable Privileges which justly belong to this loyal Government. They are not yet prepared for Publication.—Why the House were not unanimous in their Sentiments of the said Resolutions, should be left to the Investigation of those who are able to discover the Truth. It is said there were only five Members on the negative Side of the Question; and eighty-five on the other.
