WILLIAMSBURG, Sept. 21.
Extract of a letter from a Gentleman in London, to his friend here, dated July 12, 1769.
"As to the political conduct of your country, you have the approbation of every Englishman; nor was your address to the King treated with that disrespect which had been shewn on former like occasions. In short, the acts already past to the injury of America, are to be repealed, and no more such attempted for the future. This you may rely on, as I have such information as puts the truth of it beyond a doubt."
