London. . . It is very remarkable that the Bench of Bishops
have observed a perfect taciturnity on the present prospect
of peace.  While war was the topic, their Reverences blew
the long trumpet of Moses as loudly as if they have been
under the walls of Jerico--but the independence of America
deprives them of a land of promise--Philadelphia is no
longer considered as a new Jerusalem--no hierarchy--no
episcopacy to be established there.
