Songs! Songs! Songs!  Just fresh from the Press, On the
glorious victory and surrender of Lord Cornwallis and his
whole army, &c. to the illustrious and magnanimous General
Washington.  They are to be sold, by the author, at the old
Beer-House in Walnut-Street, the sixth door from Third-
Street, where attendance will be given for that purpose. 
Although the advertising such are unprecedented, the reason
for advertising them is, they are soon to be sent to Boston;
therefore, if Songsters or others, choose to purchase those
much esteemed and celebrated songs, they have this notice,
viz. First, A Dialogue between Old Gannuaie, Bute, North,
&c. including her voyage to London, for that purpose, in a
new way.  Second, Let Fame sound her trumpet aloud, with a
favourite toast; also an assent and consent to the foregoing
songs.  Fifthly, When Britons first strove to enslave, &c.
Sixthly, Don't boast of Caesar's name; and Seventhly, the
Amen, and So-Be-it, to the foregoing.  The songs are on two
separate papers.
N.B. At the same place where the above-mentioned songs are
to be disposed of, is to be sold with them, the Epitaphs of
George the IIId.
