7482. REVOLUTION (American), Hopes of reconciliation.—
When I saw Lord
Chatham's bill, I entertained high hope that
a reconciliation could have been brought about.
The difference between his terms and those offered
by our Congress might have been accommodated,
if entered by both parties with a disposition
to accommodate. But the dignity of
Parliament, it seems, can brook no opposition
to its power.—
