BOSTON. November 26.

By several vessels which arrived here last week, in about a fortnight from Quebec, we learn, that all the ships of war and transports, employed in the late expedition, were sailed from thence, except a bomb and fire ship, which were hauled up and unrigged, and some small vessels which were employed in bringing wood for the use of the garrison there, which, 'tis said, consists of six or 700 men, who were generally in good health, and almost free from the fluxes, which for some time was brief among them, after the surrender of the city: That they had good provisions in the King's stores for twelve months: -- That the French inhabitants who had capitulated, were put to great difficulties in procuring the necessaries of life, and those must necessarily be more so, thereabouts, who had not: -- That the remains of the French army continued encamped and entrenched about 35 miles from the city; but as the winter was approaching, it would be impossible to continue long in that situation: -- That four of our people going ashore from one of the vessels bound here, 'tis said to hunt for horses, were taken by a French scout, but were soon set at liberty, and had returned back again: -- That a ship of 400 tons, one of those that was above the city, during the siege, coming down the river, brought to, upon firing two or three shot at her; and her papers being searched, and the officers and men being Spaniards, it appeared she belonged to that nation, and 'tis said would be discharged. 'Tis thought none of the other vessels remaining above, which belong to the French, will dare to venture down: unless it be to submit for want of necessaries.

We can inform the public, that the report of the Canadians attempting to blow up the grand magazine at Quebec, is false: on the contrary every thing was well there the 30th of October, our troops in good spirits, and healthy; and nothing attempted by the enemy to recover the place since its capitulation.
