For September.
In Europe. -- England still in the dumps at the loss of America, and waiting but for the infringement of the treaty on our part to wage another war. -- Ireland jealous of their neighbours, and secretly wishing an opportunity to shake off their connection with Britain. -- Holland verging daily more and more towards anarchy and confusion. -- France augmenting their navy, and cherishing with a liberal hand the arts of war. -- The politics of Prussia remain in statu quo -- their Monarch on the confines of eternity -- his death will occasion great commotions among the powers of Europe. -- Russia by the wise administration of their Empress blooming like a garden.
In America. -- The New-England states, alas! discord and convulsions are their characteristics: especially Rhode Island and Massachusetts, -- the former distracted with paper money: the latter with mobs; both of the evils very troublesome while they last, but of a perishable nature, and usually of short duration. -- New-York like an unchristian Jew, watching every opportunity to take advantage of their neighbour's necessity. -- The Southern states appear to be tranquil, a fracas now and then, serves but to restore greater tranquility in the end, they seem virtuously endeavouring to cherish, with a fostering hand, the arts of peace -- husbandry and manufactures are there encouraged under the auspicious influence of their assemblies.
