which the colonies have drawn from tine sea by
their fisheries, you had al! thar matter fully o..

acquisitions of value. for they seemed even to
exc,e your envy aud yet the spirit by which
that en'erprizing employment. has been exerci-
sed, ought rather in my opinion, To have raised
your esteem and admiration And pray, Sir,
what IN the world is equal to I. Pass b. the o.
liner parts. and look a the manner in which the
New England people have Of late carried on The

The tunbing mountains OF ice, and behold them

W il. some of them draw the line and stri Ike the

inro England. The French, at thar time,
|. pretended, in their public papers, that
Rocqueville, their admiral. was to take z
nunbcr Of Aat.bottomed boats under MS
protection: But the real scheme was other.

Aee., and Providence, at that period, SEEM
ed most wonderfully TO exert itself, In
teaching mankind Of how little avail nu'
man dispositions are, that depend upon the
elements Of nssurs. Sir John Norris, by
one Of the speediess and most vigorous
equipments everkaowr, got up with roc
qnevilie, who was inferior to him Ia
strength, about dark. That night the ele-
menrs declared for the French. and while
the English thought they had them i'm
pounded, next morning they were irreco-
verably gone, and thereby, in all proba.
bility. they saved every ship they had.
While this was trassacsing Oh the coast
OF England, count SAKE, and the young
pretender, were actually embarklng, and
had put TO sea, upon the coass OF France.
Pour or FIVE Thousand troops were embark
ed in transports, and tina embarka,ion of
the ress was going on with oil the spirit and
success imaginable, when tina very winds
that saved them 10 one place dashed them
TO pieces in another, aaa rendered the

if, at tina. time, when the nation was d.
