A volume of Letters by lr. Adams, 4he
wife of John Adams has jutt been publish
ed in Boston, ofwUch. the editor of the Bos
ton Daily Advertiser affords two or three
specimens. 'They'. aYe , edited by her graud
son, Charles Francis Adams, with a perfect
.memoir. We have read! them' with an aj
rectionate interest, which pertains to such
records of the sympathies the fears, and the
hopes of the patriots who were chiefly in
strutnejital in achieving our National Imle-
pendence Mrs. Adams was tfje worthy
.companion of one among the first of those
patriots in every jricissitude of. his glorious
career. ! This letter was written by her the
day after the battle of Bunket's Hill. There
is no despondency in its tone, although at
that period only the bravest trustedjri the
ultimate tnumoh of the American arms. It
is addressed to her husband
Sunday June, 1775.
The'day, perhaps the de
Dearest Friend:
cisiveday , is couie on which the fate of Ame
rica depends.' My bursting heart must find
vent at tnV prn. I have lust heard: that our
deacXfiexul, lir. arretf,,i$nqMnoTe, but lell
gloriously Jghjiing for htfMCOiintry ; saying
' bettef lo di6 6ii or ablin.Uj'e field than igno
minio'uily haiigvUpoo thi gallows. Great is
oar'foss lie t has distinguished himself in
every engagement, by tfis courage and for
titude, by animating the'soldiers and leading
them on by hisTown example. 'ZA. particular
account of these dreadful, but I hope glorious
days.wtll be transmitted to you, no doubt, in
the exaci manner-1 f r: j'y ' - : "; . " ' '
" The race is not to "the swift nor the bat
tle to the'ilrongf but the God of Israel is, he
that giveth strength andf power to his people.
Trust in him at all times, ye people, ; pour
out your hearts before him. -God is a refuge
for us." Charles tow a is laid in ashes. The
battle began upon! our 'entrenchments upon
Bunker's Hill, Saturday morning about three
. o'clock, and has not ceased yet, and it is now
three o'clock, Sabbath afternoon.
It is expected that they will come out over
the Neck to-night,and a dreadful battle mut
ensue. Almighty God, cover the heads of
our. countrymen,1 arid be as a shield to our
dear friends I How many have fallen we
know not. The constant roar of the-cannon
is so distressing, that we cannot eat, drink,
or sleep. May we be supported and sustain
ed in the dreadful conflict! I shall tarry
here until it is thought unsafe by my friends,
and then I have myself secured a retreat at
your brother's, who has kindly offered me a
patt of his house. I cannot compose myself
to write at nrcsenL I will add " more as 1
hear further. ! V .

I have been ed much agitated that I Have
not been able to write since, Sabbath day.-
When I say ten thousand reports are passing,
vague, and uncertain as the, wind, I believe
1 speak the truth. l am not able to give you
any authentic account of last Saturday, but
you will not be destitute of intelligence. -Col.
Palmer has just se.nj me word that he
has an ooDortunitv ofTcoiureyance. Incor
rect as this scrawl may be, it shall go. 1 ar
dently pray that you imay 'x be supported
through, the arduous task you have before
you. 11 wish 1 could contradict the report
of the Doctor s death ;, but it is a lamentable
truth, and the tears of multitudes pay tribute
to his memory ;
those favorite lines of
lins contlnsally sound in my ears,
p How sleep the brave," &c.
I must close, as the Deacon waits. ;i have
not pretended to be particular with regard to
what I have heard, because I know you will
collect better intelligence. The spirits of the
people are very good ; the loss ot Charles
town affecu them no more than a drop of
the bucket, ( " ; ;

a her the abandant proofs which have been presented
of their superiority," I will agree that such an iodivi

before paying for it. I think there can ue but little
risk any way in getting Piauo of a jSeller who has
disposed 'oi upwsrds of 21.0 without erver selling a
