NEW TOASTS.
The patriotic Ladies of Virginia, who have nobly distinguished themselves by appearing in the Manufactures of America, as may those of the Massachusetts be laudably ambitious of not being out-done even by Virginians.
The wise and virtuous Part of the fair Sex in Boston and other Towns, who being at length sensible that by the Consumption of Tea, they are supporting the Commissioners and other infamous Tools of Power, have voluntarily agreed, not to give or receive any further Entertainments of that kind, until those Creatures, together with the Boston Standing Army, are removed, and the Revenue Acts are repealed.
