{"value"=>"Writes by Mr. Fisher, who sails for London by this fleet; Mrs. Galloway has recovered from a dangerous illness, and is more cheerful than usual; she experienced the full resentment of the leaders of Pennsylvania, and has nothing more to dread; he has purchased a share in a druggist's store and intends to support himself until the storm has subsided and he can return to his estate and family; describes the unhappiness and poverty of America; hopes the British will make a vigorous campaign; he recommends their taking possession of the peninsula between the Chesapeek and the Delaware, to afford an asylum for loyalists and cut off the trade of Philadelphia; necessity of supporting the southern army will doubtless be urged by Col. Campbell, whose humane and able qualities have endeared him to the people of Georgia; illness of their friend Barton from his confined life within the lines."}
