Irish Parliament to debate land tax and union fears
Letters from Dublin warn of a winter meeting where a land tax for Ireland may be proposed, sparking widespread discontent among Irish gentlemen. A July 22 letter says if the bill passes, Britain and Ireland could unionize, sealing Dublin Parliament’s fate and boosting Cork’s future wealth. Reports from the West Indies describe numerous privateers and captures, with British ships, prizes, and naval actions. Also noted are a frigate being fitted for sea, mounting gun carriage, and various social notices including marriages and deaths across England.

British Ministers Fear New York Loss and Philadelphia Attack
Intelligence from New York shows Howe and Cornwallis have evacuated New Jersey and moved west toward Philadelphia in two divisions with one wing to Chesapeake Bay and the other to Delaware Bay. Washington may defend Philadelphia. Howe reconnoitered and finds attacking him risky. Four mortars atop Brookyln Ferry heights could batter New York in hours. Dispatches from Tobago’s governor arrived via the Wilock Temple at the Downs.
