We hear from Albany, that two Indians (the one be- longing to New-Jersey, and the other to the Massachu- setts) taken Prisoners at Fort William Henry, had come in from Montreal, which Place they deserted the 18th of May: They say, that for some Time before they came off, the Accounts received from the French Army before Quebec, were, that they had had two or three Engagements with the English on the Plains of Abra- ham, in which though they were beat off in one or two of them, yet they took a Number of Cannon from the English, and drove them back into the Town, with the Loss of a great many Men. But that on the 16th of May, other Accounts were received at Montreal, that the French Army were actually coming back from be- fore Quebec; which, they say threw the People into great Amazement, and when they came away, left them universally in Tears, lamenting the great Loss of their Friends in the Siege; and had given over all Hopes of holding the Country. These Indians further add, that the French said they battered Quebec Walls so low that they could put their Hands on the Top. At this Time we suppose Mr. Murray dosed them. They also say, that Monsieur Vaudreuille did not go against Quebec, but that he remained at Montreal. General Amherst was still at Albany: And we are told the fore- going Intelligence is very much credited here.
