About two o'clock, the Chancellor of the Ex chequer, Lords Hawkefbury and Hobart, Mr. N. Vanfittart, Sir A. Hammond, and various other Gentlemen, arrived at Wapping. They were con cluded round the works next the River, (hewn the Ream-engines, plans, &c. after which they were condueted to the foundation of the entrance baron, where two (tones were prepared to be laid, each about two tons and a half. The firfi fione was laid by the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Lord Hawketbury, Sir Richard Neave, (Chairman), and Edward Fortier, (Deputy Chairman): when this lione was laid, two glafs bottles, containing the gold, River, and copper coins of •the prefent reign, with a medal of the King's Recovery, and the Peace, were depofited in a hole made in the none, and over them a tin plate, containing the following infcription, was laid : THIS STONE was hid on Saturday, the 26th day of June, Ann.

The crowd of perfons who attended were in numerable, and although the witnetred the novel fpeaacle of feeing three Miniders t;rawn in one cart, yet there was no indecent exultation ; all was order and decorum ; and w e mull add, hat the noble and exalted Perfonages conduced themfelves with great propriety, and fubmitted to their fate with becoming fortitude. We did not hear of any accidents that hap pened; the fcatfoldings were all of the ben kind, and were fully equal to the weight they had to fup. pert. Lord Hobart afcended the cart find, then Lord Hawkefbury, and Mr. Addington followed, he was no otherwife didinguiffied from the run than by the immenfity of his hat.
