--."How can we be sufficiently grateful to providence, for the enjoyment of that lovely amiable blessing peace; she flourishes in BOSTON; she is smiling in the mother country, England. Our prudent Minister has banished almost even the idea of faction, by the gentle acts of universal benevolence, and the returns of good for evil. In a word, perhaps this island never in any age experienced more profound tranquility, either in respect of foreign, as well as domestic connections."
