New-Haven, July 12. We have advice from Albany, that the
general and field-officers of the Connecticut forces, arrive
safe there on Tuesday, the first of this instant, and the
next day went to wait on Major General Johnson, at Mount-
Johnson; they found him surrounded with about 1100 Indians
of the five-nations, whom the general had engaged to join
with him: Those Indians the evening before had had a war
dance, when they took up the hatchet in form: They declared
themselves glad to see the brethren of Connecticut, and
seem'd hearty in our cause. . .
