Saturday last being the King's Birth-Day, when his Majesty
entered the 36th year of his age, the same was observed here
in the usual way, i.e the Bells were rang-- Colours
displayed-- Guns at the forts fired-- the Militia were
reviewed-- and his Honour the Lieutenant-Governor had
Company to dine with him in the Council-Chamber-- but there
was not a single house illuminated at night, nor any other
demonstration of joy; the people lamenting that so good a
Prince should be beset by a Ministry who seem to have
studied to alienate rather than preserve the affections of
his most loyal subjects.
