Wonderful is the effect of impudent and persevering lying. The British ministry have so long hired their gazetteers to repeat and model into every form lies about out being in anarchy, that the world has at length believed them, the English natn has beehives them, the ministers themselves have come to believe them, and what is more wonderful, we have believed them ourselves.
