PORTSMOUTH. March 8.
We hear from Hollis, that on the 27th of Feb. last, the Rev. Mr. Peter Powers was installed there, to the Pastoral care of the Church of Christ, embodied at Newbury and Haverhill at Cohas--There seems to be a happy prospect of seeing that part of the Wilderness Blossom like a Rose, as they have now at Cohas settled a sound Religious Orthodox Minister; one who appears to have the Interest of the Redeemer's Kingdom much at Heart, and will we hope be instrumental of spreading the same in that Wilderness.
