Last Thursday being the anniversary of the King's coronation, the cannon at Fort George were fired; upon which a gentleman observed, that instead of discharging our guns in token of joy, we ought to muffle our bells, and toll a solemn peal, as there had been more unjust, cruel and oppressive acts passed during the present, than in any preceding reign. |
