The "freeholders and farmers of the City and County of Albany," due to their displeasure at the manner in which they are treated by the Provincial Government, have created a petition to be signed by themselves as well as those of neighboring counties, to be sent to the King and House of Commons. This petition, while stating the "corruptions of the assemblies & Maladministration of the Government," would make certain to remind the King of his subjects' sincrest loyalty and affetions.
