HEZEKIAH GRIDLEY.
New-Cambridge, June 7th, 1782.
From a London Paper, dated the 2d of March
last.
MR. Hill, in his speech on Wednesday night,
compared the Ministry to Don Quixote,
the American war to Dulciana del '1 eboio, the
new secretary to Sancha Panca,or rather, he said,
he would call him the old Rohnante on which
Don Quixote would ride in order to fight the
windmill. He said, that next to peace with
Heaven, peace with America was to be wished,
and that the yearning of every true Englishman's
bowels over our revolted colonies, were but faint
ly set forth by the yearnings of David's bowels
over his revolted son Abfalom, and hoped the
house wouldimitate theexample ofqueen Esther,
who presented an address taking Ahafuerus for
the life of her people, whilst the wicked minister
Haman, who had counfelled their destruction,
was hanged on a gibbet 50 cubits high. The
house laughing, he said that if they laughed at
the quotation he had brought from^fcripture, he
hoped it was unnecessary to make any apology
for mentioning so obsolete a book as the bible,
as he was pretty confident that book took up but
very little of the time and attention of that honor
able house, and could not help wifliing it took
up much more; but it they supposed he meant
to refle& on the noble lord in the blue ribband,
from what he had said, he assured them he had
a favourable opinion of him, wished him well,
and hoped never to give a vote against him again,
because he flattered himfelf, the noble lord would;
frora henceforth, adopt such measures as he
could vote for with a fafe conscience; but if he
put the noble lord in one scale, and peace with
America in the other, the latter would certainly
preponderate; and the noble lord (tho' not a
make weight) would kick the beam. He con
cluded, with adding, that when he ceased to vote
as he thought right, he traded his constituents
would think it right to vote him out of that
house."
