New-York, August 13. Extract of a letter from Boston, July
26. . . [60 lines] "In my last I signified that we should
have a meeting, which obtained on Monday.  The Sons got a
union, on which they inscribed, Immediate Exportation
without Exception, on royal paper: This was preceeded by the
Cryer, and a French-horn, and immediately followed by two
drums; the most reputable North-End Sons being principal
tradesmen, &c. To these succeeded two pair of colours, and
two more drums, and thus proceeded the whole length of the
town. . . [57 more lines, including description of the
meeting.]
