Extract of a letter from Prince-Town, dated 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 burnt the
letter by the hands of a hangman, hired for that purpose. .
