On Monday morning last, arrived here the brig Minerva, Capt.
Wise, from Pool, in eight week, and bro't with her what we
have been long impatiently waiting for, an act of
Parliament, repealing the stamp act, &c. . . .
The cannon belonging to the province being placed in the
state-house yard, the royal salute was fired on drinking the
King, and seven guns after every succeeding toast. The
whole concluded in the evening with ringing of bells &c. and
strong beer given to the populace . . .
