Boston, August 16. On receiving the confirmation of the
agreeable news of the reduction of the important fortress of
Ticonderoga, Crown-Point, and Niagara, by his Majesty's

at Castle-William: And the Monday following there were
public rejoicings on the same happy occasion: The bells
continued ringing in town the greatest part of the day. . .
