Last Thursday went up the Bay, for Annapolis, in the Magdalen armed Schooner, Captain Collins, his Majesty's Attorney General, and Daughters, to be present at the Races there on the 24th Instant. We hear a great Deal of Company is expected at them, from this and the neighbouring Provinces; and it is probable Lord Dunmore may be there by that Time, from whence he will, very likely, choose to embrace the Opportunity of the Magdalen's Return, and come in her to Virginia.
