British Party il America" This exwt
SIN has been much used of late and III
singular that those who affect to belieuhs
existence of such party III the United Saa
rest their faith entirely upon the vague d
claration of an Englishman +; an authotl |
which, upon almost any other occasion, a |
would reject with scorn. But the asstra
has been so often repeated, that it passes yA
many as all undeniab'e fact. Even Govsfs
Gerry, of Massachusetts, has enlarged qN
it in his late philippe. The Bostonanshl
ever, are not remarkable tor submitting qli
city to insults or injuries of any sort rfaa
any quarter. In proposed ansWam To-
Governors Speech, his Recommendations resF#
a handsome retort courteous; from which \
appears certain, that even if there be Sh'
fish Party in America" it is not 'hss1
/. party" amongst US devoted to tOrslgn!f
vernment. We annex few extracts;
