Newport, March 28.  We are assured that the New-Yorkers are
determined in their resolutions of sending back the tea-ship
without suffering an ounce to be landed.  Said ship had been
31 days out from Antigua, when the latest accounts came away
from New-York:-- So that we may expect, in a few days, to
give our readers, a few excepted, an agreeable account of
the 4th Act of a play called the adventures of two thousand
chests of India Tea; the 3d Act having been begun, but
unluckily left half finished, by some of the actors having
forgot their parts.
