TRENTON, AUGUST 4.
We are informed by good authority, that the main body of the enemy are moved down the North-River; to New- York; and there is reason to believe they shortly mean to make a descent into this state, but it is hoped the spirited inhabitants will be so prepared to receive them as to prevent their carrying their predatory and savage plan into execution.
A brig and a schooner that lately left our capes in com- pany with Captain Barry, are taken and carried into New- York.
We are also informed that the enemy are again in pos- session of Stoney-Point, where they are repairing the works with great industry, and that they have reinforced the gar- rison at Verplank's point to 1500 men.
The British prisoners taken at Stoney-Point, arrived at Philadelphia on Friday evening last and were conducted to the new-gaol.
Since our last about 200 prisoners, chiefly sailors, passed thro' this town under guard for Elizabeth-Town to be ex- changed.
