Extract of a letter from Princeton, July 13.  This afternoon
the students at Nassau-Hall, fired with a just indignation
on reading the infamous letter from the merchants in New-
York, to the Committee of Merchants in Philadelphia,
informing them of their resolutions, to send home orders for
goods contrary to their Non-importation Agreement; at the
tolling of the College Bell, went in procession to a place
fronting the college, and burned the letter by the hands of
a hangman, hired for the purpose. . .
