I have written upon both roads to the commanding officer of the brigade of the line that our expedition was relinquished, and that I would advise him not to give to his men the trouble of going farther. I have also requested him to speak of this movement as if it had taken place on account of some intelligence that the enemy meant to come out into the Jersey's to attack us.
The curse of East Jersey's existence was to be always an appendage of New York, or to be threatened with that condition. The inhabitants now had to enter their vessels and pay duties at New York. Writs were issued by order of the King putting both the Jerseys and all New England under the New York Governor.
Lady Jersey's bearing, on the contrary, was that of a theatrical tragedy queen; and whilst attempting the sublime, she frequently made herself simply ridiculous, being inconceivably rude, and in her manner often ill-bred. Lady Sefton was kind and amiable, Madame de Lieven haughty and exclusive, Princess Esterhazy was a bon enfant, Lady Castlereagh and Mrs. Burrell de tres grandes dames.

The foreman interrupted him: "Every reader of the 'Herald' will be glad to know that Jersey's age and color! But go on." " Frederick Bibshaw Jones, Esquire," pursued his assistant, with some discomfiture, " Esquire, our popular and well-dressed fellow-citizen " "You're right; Bib Jones is a heavy swell," said Parker in a breaking voice.
" Citizen, can be daily seen wandering from the far end of his pasture-lot to the other far end of it." "'His!" exclaimed Parker. "'His pasture-lot? The Jersey's?" "No," returned the other, meekly, "Bib Jones's." "Oh," said Parker. "Is that the end of that item? It is!
