Philadelphia, August 29. Extract of a letter from the camp
at White Plains, dated Aug. 22. . . What opinion (says a
correspondent) must the public entertain of the political
principles of the honourable Congress of the United States
of America, when some members openly and zealously espouse
the cause of the most infamous Tories, while others, who
call themselves leading members, officiously undertake the
management of balls, graced with Mescienza ladies, equally
noted for their Tory principles and their late fondness for
British debauchees and macaronies.
