From a late London Paper
ON THE PROMOTION OF LORD GEORGE SACKVILLE GERMAINE
TO BE SECRETARY OF THE AMERICAN DEPARTMENT.
Tune of "A Cobler There Was, &c."
Ye poor silly people,
Who foolishly think,
That the glory of Briton is likely to sink;
Your affairs will soon prosper,
Recover your frights
For the hero of Minden will set them to rights.
Derry down, down, down, Derry down.
