If I was to relate to fob, all the questions
the good people of this kingdom so repeatedly
alk of me, concerning America, and its Femmes
you would ready laugh. Most of them confider
you as beings, little better than the Squas
of the Desert, and are afronifhed when I tell them,
that you feed on b-es, poultry, &c. as they do;
that you dr.fi, dance ^nd loVe rhufc; in a word,
that you excel them in many Things, and are inferi.
e to them in none. They fiard amazed at my w ; ld
taste, when I confefs my admiration for the far of
America, and my refolutitm tdftrie am°ng them.
Theycannot conceive, how any Ladies tan live happy
without a King and Court, to gibe them fashions.
How are the politics of Carolina ?-- Write to
me by the 641 opportunity. , Carolina is my coun
try ; so, do not be attonifoed at my anxiety for its
welfare. Have the En. forth of Britain yet
wormed themselves into your land? Are they
abetted by those who have, at all times, secretly
loveo them : -Or, are the red aro^ng you more
favoured than the biue ?—Adieu.
orycu peril Ariftoerah nre the-friends of King
iftn in every pge, when Xrifocraey herfelf is not
dominant. They detect a democratic form, as
lubverfive of their pre ended preeminence; and
every Lording Irfocrat of America is the friend
of dritf, Monarchy. The laws of Gavilfond (as
in New England) Ihould therefore be interwoven
in to your constitution ; and no man ffiould be great
among you, but from his office under the people ;
and no man obtain refpe^, but from his greater
utility to the State, his abilities and his virtues.
Your conduct towaids Tories is much fpokea
of in this country. Mos people are for giving
them up their eftat^s ; but al! for the bani/hm^nt
of their perlons. Once a Tory, and he is ever
such. He will never forgive you; nor will yous
Whigs ever forgive him. Your laws may afford
him protection; but not Jecurit,. Your Ufa indy
give him Denizenfoip; but not peace An eternal
collision and party warfare must exist iri your k^
Similarity of sentiments, even among haves, (as in
France) can alone make a nation happy. It f$
fancy, (which no law can control) that makes the
Fr nchman as joyous in his thaih^, as thd free
but beggarly Switzer is in his liberties, ft is
therefore, that the wisest Ltyffatdis have ever
confuted the fancy and genius of the people;
for whose happiness alone the rules of law ought
to be established.•
