Now, my I beg you will not consider that I took up this as niy own, and would for my own sake have wounded the feelings of either yourself or Lady Swinburne. I had oppoi tu.,ities of seeing General Grey with her, and was brought to a similar suspicion respecting him. Nor did it entirely stop here, so unbridled and unprincipled her conduct appeared to me. This gave sufficient ground for her conduct in all respects. For, seeing my affection for Elizabeth, if she could secure her daugh ter's blind devotion to herself, she had reason to hope that my eyes might also be shut. Luckily I had too strong a conviction of her guilt, and too firm a reliance that such wickedness would not be allowed to be trium phant, for such a hope ever to be real' zed. The first step I took (this was in London, a few weeks before their return to the country) was to expostulate with Lady Swinburne gn her behaviour to me, in such general terms, as.to leave no doubt in her mind of the full extent of my intention, without compromising my self by any explanation to a particular line of conduct. This language, .however, was met on her part by re roaches, and . an. assurance that she was conscious of having done no wrong. Emily was by.thance in the room - during. this conversation, and was at that time totallf ignorant of what I 111;1 . &mt. e r mother appeared to me 10 Suspect that she itneiv it, and treated her with much' esiatelirrjn..9ldep to 'Force_ from her what, in fact, ilre ifii)..4jot know. Sir• John was, at different times, in duced to conduct himself towards me in a manner that couldonly be Om result of great misrepresentation. Lady Swinburne's conduct, on my determination to take Elizabeth abroad, immediately after our marriage, with many other occurrences in London, and at Capheaton, as well as what I have heard took place on the journey, give me cfmtinual proofs that she could not be induced to give up her attempts to alienate her daughter from me. In consequence of a quarrel with my mother, I found it necessary to think of retiring from the repre sentation of the county, and consequently from residence in it, which I rather state, in order that I may omit nothing of importance which I recollected to have oc curied in this singular affair, than from any precise bearing it appears to have on the object of this letter. Still I had no idea of making my thoughts on this subject known to Sir .1.-hn Swinburne, or his son Ed ward, althinigh I had been compelled to acquaint Eli zabeth aogl Emily with them before•they left L"ndon. From the uncommon excellence and purity of Eliza beth's mind, and her most amiable disposition, such an explanation 'seemed to me impossible to be avoided. About tcsidays, however, after my arrival at Cap heaton, our affairs took a new and extraordinary turn, which compelled me to a different conduct. On Sun day, the loth instant, after some prayers had been read at home (it was a wet morning), selected from a book of lii:hop Hoadley's, and in which, as well as in a sermon of Sydney Smith's, livas struck by the absence of all acknowledgement of the atonement of our Saviona, and the misrepresentation of the principal object of his coming on earth, to die for the sins of mankind,l declared to Edward Swinburne my opinion respecting his mother, and named yourself, General Grey, and her own butler. Last night, a note which I sent to Edward, at Ovingham, to ask what had been done, and inquire after the health of Elizabeth and Emily, was returned to me unopened, and my groom was desired to tell ir.e, that after what had passed, he 'could receive no letters fiom me. Ido not know, there fore, what it is his intention to do: he is aware that I shall remain at Bradley, to be prepared for any thing. Your Lordship will do me the justice to believe me when I say that it has not been the least in my thoughts to screen myself from a duel by this letter. Construing;" &c. London : Printed for W.

T. W. BEAUMONT. [Nu answer was riven to this letter]. Lyons, Jan. 4, 18.24. This was an action brought. by the levee of the plaintiff, to recover possession of a most valuahle and extensive property in Merionethshire, extending into the celebrated vale of Llangotten, which has been in higa tion since the year 1793. In 1794 the case was tried here, when the present defendant was one of the then plaintiffs, and recast:red possession. On that occasion the late Lord Erskine came down, specially lot the P.issingham family, and the present Mr. Baron G MOW was also brought down specially, to oppose his g , eat abilities to the learning of the late Noble Lend. Mr. TAUNTON stated the case to the Jury in a very elaborate and perspicuous speech. This was an action brought by the heir at lad s in the tight line of a Mrs. Catherine Lloyd, to recover possession of the propet ty in question. Mr. Ewen Lloyd, the common ancestor, was, in the year 1740, possessed of the pi ope.t y called the Hendeur estate, in Merionethshil'e. In six yea s after he bec.i me so poressecdof the propel ty in question, he intermarried with a Lady of the ancient and respected family of the Hills, in this county ; and settled upon her and the. issue of the m trriage, in strict settlement, the whole of his real property. Mr. Ewen Lloyd died in 1774 without issue, and his widow sutvived him till 1782, when she died. Mr. Ewen Lloyd hid a!so two maiden sisters, Miss Catherine and Miss Mary Lloyd, who, upon his and his wife's deaths, inherited the estate as copartners, and for several years received the rents and profits of it. Catherine L:oyd, upon her death, be queathed her moiety of the estates to certain rdatives for life, remainder over to present pl.intiff, who was grandson of, the common ancestor. His right as re malnderman did not accrue until last December, when the last life tenant died. It was necessary to state to the Jury that, in the year 1794, the family of the Pas. singhams brought an action for the recovery of this property, as the lineal descendants and right heirs of Mr. Ewen Lloyd, being issue of a marriage said to have been contracted by him antecedent to his union with Miss Hill, and they succeedt'd. According to their account, one daughter, issue of this marriage, hat mar ried the father of the present defendant, and according to such a pedigree, he was of course grandson to Ewen Lloyd, Esq. That supposed prior martiage was alleged to be with a woman of the name of Elizabeth Taylor ; and the verdict which was obtained on the fog mer occa sion was the result of a deep laid conspiracy. The Learned Counsel did not, however, mean to insinuate that the present plaintiff p irticipated in the plot that had been laid to obtain that verdict, but it had been procured by pet ury and forgery of the blackest de scription. The Learned Counsel would not dispute, as it was unnecessary, that this Elizabeth Taylor was the mother of the ,Passinghams, by Mr. Lloyd, hut he was capable of proving, beyond the power of delight, that Mr. Ewen Lloyd had never been mat ried until he en tered the holy state with Miss Hill. On the former oc casion, evidence had been tendered and admitted by Mr. Justice Heath, who tried the cause, .and . who was unquestionably a most able judge, but on this occasion he erred in judgment as to the prior marriage. He, however, admitted proof, such as it was, that the previous marriage had taken place with Elizabeth. Taylor. Every one now knew the benefits resulting from the late Marriage Act, but previous to its passing, and during the reign of George the Second, a scanda lous and infamous practice long prevai:ed, of marrying : persons at a house assigned, and arranged for the pur pose, in the neighbourhood of ne F.eet D.tch, and these contracts were termed 44 Fleet Marriages." Cler-, gymen, who were the outcasts ,of their cdEing, and the disgrace if their cloth, offiziated at these unholy. unions, and a regular registry of them was kept; but hat registry having been repeatedly made the instru ment of fraud, falsehood, and impoition, the first law authorities in the kingdom ruled that they were not re gni ir means of proot upon any occasion. Mr. Justice Heath, on the former trial of this cause, admitted proof of a marriage of this description-between Mr. Ewen Lloyd, and this Elizatet'l Taylor, and such it was, but he was principally ii,fitsenced in that admission by the. production of an attested copy of entries in the parish register, of the parish churclloof g‘ the Fleet marriage"f Sr. Pancra s , w hi c h went to corroborate the probabili t y between Mr. Lloyd and this Elizabeth Taylor. The Learned Counsel was now prepared to prove that these gnu ies in the parish register of S. Pancras were forged EAST INDIA HOUSE, July 19. 1826. r 1 1 11 E COURT of DIREC MILS of the UNITED - 111 - COMPANY of MERCHAA TS 1 ENGLAND trading to the EAST INDIES do hereby give Nutice, lhat at the GENERAL COURT of the said COMPANY appointed to be held at this House, on WZDNICSDAY, the 26th in stant, the following Resolution of the Court of Directors of the Sth instant, will be reported to the General Court, agreeably to, the Act of the 58th Geo. 111. cap. 85. viz.
