Boston, June 2. Extract of a letter from Duxborough, May 28.

with the fate of Britain and her colonies is decided, the
detestable Stamp Act is repealed! Hail glorious tidings,
welcome, thrice welcome to our shores.  The day subsequent
to the reception of this interesting news, every possible
demonstration of joy was exhibited; the morning was ushered
in with the beating of drums, discharging of guns, &c. . .
