New-York, October 22.
On Thursday morning last, we had the agreeable news of the
arrival of our governor, the Right Hon. John Earl of
Dunmore, at the narrows, in his majesty's ship the Tweed. .
. .
In the evening the gentlemen at Hampden Hall had a large
bonfire erected in the commons, where was assembled the
greatest number of people ever seen on the like occasion.
Most of the houses were handsomely illuminated, and a
genteel ball was given by the gentlemen of the town and
army, at Bolton's. . .
