The New York Packet

By a gentleman who passed through this city on Monday last, from Lake-Champlain, we are informed, that Shays, Day, Wheel and Parsons, principals in the late rebellion in that commonwealth of Massachusetts, were at Crown-point, on the 1st instant, collecting all the force they could at that place: That he heard Shays and Day declare, that they were then going into those parts of this State and Vermont which border on Massachusetts, where their friends had embodied great numbers of men, who were only waiting for their presence, to commence immediate hostilities. The gentleman adds, that the persons above named, and those who have espoused their cause, treat the proclamations which have been issued for their apprehension, with the utmost contempt, and even boast, that the friends of government dare not attempt to put them in execution—but we would advise them not to trust too much to their temerity, lest they have reason to repent it, when too late.
