into the attitude for firing ; several fuggofs
rharjed wttli cornrjustilile matter, and ligh

tiled mto a blaze, and as soon rta the fire

hy the tar, brpjan to nseend, which seemed
almost to reach the clouds, the troops with
then- ofllce rs at therrprrrjicr jvwt were or
dered to Tire a volley with blank catndires,
fen ile joie fashion, from right to left and
from lei in riglit, uttering loud huzzas at
every, volley; nnd this firing was kept up
until the pyramid pr.vlnrilly burnt down,
dripping the t ir in profusion frortj barret to
barrel, until it descended to the ground,
where spr aiiititsf in streams over a

jirepared in rent nlnindanre, and every

coat. Thib pleasing and alluring exercise
of fe;:?tiT!g, and marrimcnt being over, eve
ry body retired to their homes in town and
country afier a joyous day spent as above
described, without any riot or tumult, but
all in good humor with themselves and
the world. 'J'lus much for the Stamp Act
and its repeat.
I have already told the reader how the
Duke of Oralton an prune minister, und
Charles Townbhend, the new chancellor of
the xchequM, ctvine mto power, who nn
meaiinlelv wooured the pBa-e of n bill
for rantiu? new duties in the colonies, lo
wil- on ghuts, paper, :mintera colow and
teu. '1'he heart of oppression which had
subsided upen the repeal of the former
impost was now revived, with additional
ardour, by the same principle exhibited in
its new form. As inijrht have been expect-
uiiiafure was ruinoted by the Manachu-
I setts auscmblj', whoaiO activity and perse
veruig hrinneaa exciled the marked displea
sure of the crown. They were ordered to
rescind their resolutions, and On their re
fusal were dissolved.
During- tho ndinmi.-itration of (Jovernor
Tryon. in North Carolina, a Hplendid pa
I lace for his resilience was hvpun. in New
i bern, the iScat of the royal rfovernment in
! that province. The sum of -25,000 cur

j sum being gradually expended, and the

on the House of Hurgesrieu at thc;r next
Session for n new appropriation, winch
with some difficulty was obtained, perhaps
to the amount of StGOOO more, and the work
progressed. But even this additional sum
was found insufficient for so splendid a
buildinif with all its office, and Cuvcrnor
Tryon, with the assistance ol il:e liiiluwice terribly increased their confusion and KlUfo
