Adjourned. The Rebellion in America has certainly had an effect upon my fair country women. -I impute the increase of inconftancy to it. Having been the first, they are determined not to be the laft to rebel.The Ladies have for some time past held a Congrefs here. They have their General Washington in his Grace of Dorfet, their Arnold in one Fawkener, their Lee in good Colonel Cofmo, their Lord Stirling in His Grace of Queensbury, their Predent Hancock in the Prince their Horatio Gates in every woman's Horatiotheir Ambaffadors Franklin, Lee, and Adams, in the perfons of Stepney, Carlifle, and Norton; nor is their wanting the refpective Aids du Camps in Byron, C Gardiner, Gardiner, and Fitzpatrick. The Ladies will enter into no treaty without a Declaration of Independence, and would rather accept Foreign Alliances upon that ground, than acknowledge the Supremacy of Great Britain. Having long imbibed the Conftitutional Principle that Reprefentation and Taxation fhould go together, they declare they will not bear any burthens but those impofed upon them by Representatives of their own Election. The well-difpofed Aimables are obliged to submit to the Rules which this Congreffional Ton have founded, and continue to fupport; and like many a worthy in America, whilst he submits and places his confidence in the trust that tyranny in its nature can be but of short duration, the innocent maiden here, fearful of defamation, courts its kindness to avoid its venom.
