Richard Knag, aged 91; John Knag, aged St ; Eliz. Little, aged 86 ; and Sarah Atkinson, aged 84. It is further worthy of remark, that Eliz. Little walked from Camel Parish the same day, a distance of:16 miles. A quarrel having arisen. between two ;Tradesmen of Crowland, Lincoln, named Sputrionds and Hook, the latter called the former " a black legged scowl drel," and '' a thief ;" on which he brought an ac tion against him; and laid his : damages at 5001.. The first epithet was proved, but not the other ; on .which the Judge observed, that the charge amount ed to nothing, as the Plaintiff was in the habit of wearing black silk stockings. There were Sixty-one Prisoners for trial at the late Kent Assizes';• nine were capitally convicted ; and.of these T. Slate, for a highway robbery ; J.

GOTT, ESQ. * CoUN 4 EL TO' THE BANK, BUT GIVEN IN HIS PRIVATE CAPACITY. There is so much inaccuracy and obscurity in the clause to which I am referred, that it is very difficult to conjecture what would be the true Con strudion of it. After - all the consideration, how;, ever, which Irthave giVen , to it, I am inclined to the ,pittion, that on the first sth of April, or loth of October, after the expiration of two years from the Ratification of the last Definitive Treaty -of Peace, any ContributOr will he entitled to make the application mentioned in that clause to have his S per Cents. Annuities granted by the At redeeM ed Or paid cff, or convened - into other annuities (according as he shall ad) as therein is mentioned : provided he.has given six months previous notice of his intention to make such application for redemp tion, payment, or conversion into ot her annuities, 'according as he shall eled. The proposal to the public under ss hich the money was raised is clear (see Copy annexed) and explicit in giving the Con fributor an option to be paid at par at any period not less than two years from the conclusion of the Definitive Treaty of Peace And I conceive that the Ad will be construed conformably to the pro posal, and so as to give effed to it, unless the words will not admit of that construdion, which does not appear to me to be the case. It the notice could not be given till the 'expiration of two years from the Definitive Treaty of Peace, as the notice must be given six months before the' Contributor who gives it can be entitled to be paid, then the shortest per iod-ohpayment would have been two years and a half from the Definitive Treaty of Peace. If the Contributor give the notice, I think he is bound to dccepz the redemption, payment, or conversion, ac cording to the eleftion which he has made and the notice he has given. • Unquestionably notice must be given of the inten. tion to apply six months previ!)us to the application, as is provided by the 9th Sedn:n of the Mt. .

AN embargo, similar to that laid upon Vessels - in England bound to the Northern Ports of Europe, was ordered here on Saturday last. Yesterday morning a numerous and respeflable • Deputation .of the Guild of Merchants waited upon the Lord High Chancellor, with the Address una. nimously • agreed to by that Guild on their last Quarter -day. His Lordship received the Gentle men of the Deputation with the most condescend ing politeness ; and returned an Answer to the Ad-• dress, conceived in terms of grateful and delicate compliment to the loyal and honourable Corpora tion from whom he had received so high a mark of approbation .and resiled. On Tuesday last, Charles Fraser - Frizell, Esq. .gave bail betore Mr. Justice Day, for his appear_ • ante at the next Commission of Oyer and Terminer. Friday a number of ca)-s, • laden with arms and • amtnunition,.arrived at Drogheda from Dublin, for Carrickfergus, under a Seri!ant's Guard of the 21st R , :gim - trit. Saturday morning they were escorted to Dundalk, by a similar guard.of the Loyal Drog. heda Infantry. A person suspeeted of treasonable praflices, was taken, about ten days ago, concealed in an Island in Loth Corrib (County of Galway); he calls him. self by different names—at one • time O'Brien, at another Archdekin ; he speaks French and Irish fluently, has a cut on his right cheek, and two rmaks like molds on his left.

WE announced the death of thiS Gentleman: in. our Paper of Monday. • • He was one of the. Represe'nta tives for Knaresborough,eind had long been in rlia pent, where, to the_surprize of all echo knew. his abilities, he was always-a silent Member. Ile, was of a respettable family, and his father was a Prelate of the English Church.- , .Mr. HARE was - erin. eated at Eton, and afterwards went to complete his studiesaf Oxford. His friendship . with Mr. Fox commenced at the former place, and retrained '- impaired till his. death. The intimacy. between these Gentlemen was unconneaed with polities or party, for.though .their opinions were the same upon most public topics, their attachment was the result of early esteem and mutual admiratidn. If Mr. Fox is to:be classed with the highest Ora tors and PoliticianS•of his time, Mr. HARE might, perhaps, be considered as the very first of No subjea could be .started in conversation in which he had not immediately something to say, which chewed great acuteness of mind, and a brilliant combination of images. Yet it must be said to the credit of Mr. HARE'S. understanding, that he was not always upon the watch to utter something witty, like most men who are gifted with a luxu riant imagination, but had a proper discretion in the government of his fancy ; and his lively effusions were always as well..timed as happily conceived. It is probable that some of his friends have manuscript records of many of, his innumerable facetious sallies, and a colleCtion' of them would display MOre Intel leaual'quickness, and a stronger sense ,of humour, than any thing that can be found in professed trea sures of Wit. The opinions of Mr. HARE, on. all sut.jeas of taste, literature, and polity, were alWays marked by sound sense; various knowledge, and mature re fleCtion, and therefore it is much to be . regretted that he never exerted his intents in the House of Commons, as that fame which he possessed in pri_ vate life would most probably have extended over the world, and might have given distinaion to his name in the political annals of this country. It has been said, that an apprehension of falling below himself rendered him a silent Senator, but we .iave no reason ,to believe that Mr. HARE was gloated by so vain a humility. He was delicate and modest in his .temper, and it may be More probably supposed that though his pleasantry was generally the de light of every private circle, he did not conceive that his talents were of such a commanding and efficient kind as would have enabled him to make a prombeent figure on the great stage of political dis cussion, where in fad he would have drawn upon .himself the eyes of his country and of mankind ; so that his silence in the House of Commons- may rather be ascribed to his modesty than his pride. The moral qualities of . Mr.,HARE were not less admired than his mental abilities. He was social, friendly, and benevolent, _and particularly fFab and courteous- in his manners. His friendi are to be found among the first characters in this country, and ail who had the pleasure of knowing him will fed the loss of an honourable, agreeable, and. en tertaining 'companion. • . We shall conclude with noticing the last of his bon-mots, that have been conveyed tar the Public, as it has been attributed to several other persons who are admired for their wit and humour. When some body was expressing surprize - that Lord Mo t RA, who is an Irishman, should have been appointed to a military command in Scotland, and that Lord CATHCART, .who is. a Seot, should have obtain ed a similar situation in Ireland, though a - reve rse in the appointments would have been a proper compli -ment to both countries, Mr. HARE. immediately observed, that it was only a mistake of the Doc- TOR, who had put the labels upon the , wrong bottles.
