On Saturday last, his Excellency the governor sent a message to the house, desiring their attendance on him in the council chamber: The house accordingly waited on his Excellency, when he was pleased to address them as follows:
Mr. Speaker, and Gentlemen of the House of Assembly,
Upon looking over the votes of your house, I find some Resolves upon your Journals; Resolves, that, after the assurances I had given you in my Speech; have sapped the foundations of confidence and gratitutude; have torn up by the roots, every sanguine hope I entertained, to render this province further service, if, in truth, I have rendered it any, and made it my indispensable duty to put an end to this session; I shall therefore require your attendance on Monday next, when you will present to me such bills as may be then prepared,
