New-York, . . . March 24. On Friday the 18th inst. being
the anniversary of the repeal of the Stamp-Act, a numerous
company of the principal merchants and other respectable
inhabitants of this city, friends to constitutional liberty
and trade, assembled at Mr. Jones's and Mr. Bardin's
taverns, which are nearly adjoining. . . [27 lines,
entertainment, dinner, toasts.] A band of music was

conducted with proper decorum, ease and good humour, and the
evening was spent in harmony, cheerfulness and a pleasing
flow of social affection.
