* That scientific author speaking of the Frrich
and Indian wars about the time of Braddock's cl it at
describes the effect the news had in England thus
" Swift as the broad-winged packets cou'd Hy a
cross the deep, the news was carried to England.—
Its effects there was like that of a stone rudely buried
against a nest of hornets. Instantly, from centre lo
circumference, all is rage and bustle.....The hive re
sounds with the maddening insects ; dark fumbling
from their cells they spread the hasty whig, and
shrill whizzing through the air, they rush to find the
foe. Just so in the sea-ruling island, from queens
house to ale-house, from hing to cochneß all were fierce
for fight. Even the red-nosed porters, where they
met, bending under their burdens, ivould stop- iu
but, in the streets, to talk of England's k onGS!
and, as they talked, their fiery snruU were seen to
grow more fiery still, and mare (bform. Then
throwing their packs to the ground aid leaping into
the attitude of boxers, with sturdy aims across and
rougli black jaws stretehed out, they bold forward
to
the fancied fight ! The frog-eating fce, in shirtlesi
ruffles and long lank cue, seems to givt ground « then
rising in their might, with fire striking By ea thev press
hard upon him, and coming in, handand foot, with
kick and cuff and many a hearty curse, they shew the
giggling crow p, how damn 'em! they
■ould
thump the French." '
