The minority hoped for respite, fren
assault; an interval in the tempest at laast
until that resolution, proposing to undo gll
that has been done in tho matter OF Galeg
and Soston. should be taken for consider

revived the storm.
We do not complain of him. We kpsy
not his rank in the park Of palace artillery;
but wo recognise him as a merciful gun,
which does not commit tho assaplt and
