From the LONDON GAZETTE, July 3. Defence of their Country, and of every Sir Charles Hardy, and which at this Time
Westminster, July 3.
That is dear to them. The advanced Season of the Year re-
THUS His Majesty came to the House of Peers, and being in his Royal Robes seated on the Throne with the usual Solemnity, Sir Francis Molyneux, Knight, Gentleman Usher of the Black Rod, was sent with a Message from His Majesty to the House of Commons, commanding their Attendance in the House of Peers. The Commons being come thither accordingly, His Majesty was pleased to give the Royal Assent to
quires that I should afford you some Relief from Public Business; and I do it with the less Reluctance, as, by the Powers vested in me by Law, I can have the Aid of your Advice and Assistance within Fourteen Days, should any Emergency make it necessary for Me to convene you before the usual Time.
himself upon the Protection of their Lordships, and wished that the Measures at this very alarming Crisis obliged to be taken by his Majesty's Servants, might meet with their Lordships Approbation; he added he hoped in God, the Men would soon be gone; that whenever that Hour came he should immediately enquire what Part of our Trade suffered most for want of Provisions, and that they should be the first Object of his Consideration; that others of smaller Consequence, should be likewise carefully attended to, and protected in their Trade as soon as the present disagreeable Hour of impressing Men for his Majesty's Service was over.
An Act for removing certain Difficulties with respect to the more speedy and effectual manning His Majesty's Navy, for a limited Time.
Gentlemen of the House of Commons. The various and extensive Operations of the War have unavoidably occasioned uncommon Expenses, and brought additional Burthens on my faithful and beloved People, which I most sincerely regret. I can not sufficiently thank you for the Confidence you have reposed in me, and for the Cheerfulness and Public Spirit with which the large Sums for the current Year have been granted.
Monday, June 28.
An Act for augmenting the Militia. And to one private Bill.
The House being resumed, was again resolved into a Committee on the Bill for removing Objections against manning His Majesty's Navy, Lord Chesterfield in the Chair.
After which His Majesty was pleased to make the following most gracious Speech:
My Lords and Gentlemen. It is impossible to speak of the Continnance of the Rebellion in North America without the deepest Concern; but we have given such unquestionable Proofs of our sincere Disposition to put an End to those Troubles, that I must still hope, that the malignant Designs of the Enemies of Great Britain cannot long prevail against the evident Interests of those unhappy Provinces, and that they will not blindly persist in preferring an unnatural and dangerous connection with a Foreign Power, to Peace and Reunion with their Mother Country.
The Duke of Richmond proposed four Principal Alterations in this Bill. The first was its being a post facto Bill, the second relative to the Clause which effected the Chisels, the third relative to the Insecurity of the Protections; the fourth, that the impressed Men (who were protected before this Bill) should be discharged at the End of five Months. To all these Points his Grace argued with great Strength of Reason and Constitutional Spirit, in which he was supported by the Duke of Bolton, Lords Ravensworth, Ferrers, and Effingham, but all to no Purpose.
My Lords and Gentlemen, THE many great and essential Services you have rendered to me and to your Country, during the Course of your long Attendance in Parliament, demand my most cordial Thanks.
Lord Sandwich threw himself on the Compassion of the House; said what he did as an Act of Necessity and if their Lordships did not support him in it, he did not know whether he should ever put his Foot within that House again.
I have seen, with entire Approbation, the Zeal you have manifested for the Support and Prosecution of the just and necessary War in which I am engaged, nor am I less sensible of your Attention to the present State of my Kingdom of Ireland: My paternal Affection for all my People makes me sincerely anxious for the Happiness and Prosperity of every part of my Dominions.
Lord Stormont supported the first Lord of the Admiralty on the Ground of State Necessity, as did
His Majesty the Events of War have afforded the Court of France no Reason to triumph on the Consequences of their Injustice and Breach of public Faith; and I trust, that by a spirited and prosperous Exertion of the Force you have put into my Hands, that ambitious Power may be brought to wish that they had not, without Provocation or Cause of Complaint, insulted the Honour and invaded the Rights of my Crown.
The Lord Chancellor on the same Plea. The several Amendments which were therefore made by the Duke of Richmond, were negatived without a Division, after
I have already acquainted you with the hostile Step which has been lately taken by the Court of Spain. Whatever Colour may be attempted to be put upon that unjust Proceeding, I am conscious that I have Nothing to reproach myself with. It has been followed by the clearest Demonstrations of the Loyalty and Affection of my People to My Person and Government, for which I repeat to you my warmest Thanks; and I consider it as a happy Omen of the Success of My Arms, that the Encouragement of Difficulties serves only to augment the Courage and Constancy of the Nation, and to animate and unite my People in the
Then the Lord Chancellor, by his Majesty's Command, said, My Lords and Gentlemen, IT is His Majesty's Royal Will and Pleasure That this Parliament be prorogued to Thursday the 5th Day of August next, to be then here held; and this Parliament is accordingly prorogued to Thursday the 5th Day of August next. [Gaz.]
Lord Ferrers proposed one in Favour of the First Men, and urged the very great Use this Body of People were to the City of London; but Lord Ferrers's Proposal met with the same Fate as the other Amendments.
LONDON, June 29. HOUSE OF LORDS, Saturday June 29. When the Motion was made for the second reading of the Impressing Bill, the Duke of Bolton rose up; and addressing himself to the First Lord of the Admiralty begged to know, by Way of Information, whether the Men belonging to Privates were by this Bill likely to be impressed, as he knew several of his Friends who had agreed to sit out this Body of People were to the City of London; but Lord Ferrers's Proposal met with the same Fate as the other Amendments. The Duke of Richmond then rose, and told their Lordships, that their Conduct had forced him to do an Act which he never originally intended, which was to give a Dissent to the Whole of the Bill, as soon as ever it was reported, and which he should
The Duke of Richmond then rose, and told their Lordships, that their Conduct had forced him to do an Act which he never originally intended, which was to give a Dissent to the Whole of the Bill, as soon as ever it was reported, and which he should

do To morrow, and divide the Monie upon it.
The Committee then went through the Remainder of the Bill. At twelve o'Clock the House adjourned.
This Day was held an extraordinary Court of Common Council at Guildhall, on the Motion of addressing his Majesty, and voting Money for paying Bounties to Soldiers and Seamen, when both of them were negatived.
Lord Harrington has got the Command of the Westminster Regiment, now raising, and the Officers received their Commissions Yesterday.
The Duke of Rutland is to raise a Regiment for the Service of the State, which his Grace has offered to make Cavalry, with the Appointment of Colonel Anthony St. Leger, to be Lieutenant Colonel; this Gentleman was last War Major of the Lord Grenby's Royal Foresters, and had a very considerable share in forming that celebrated Regiment of Light Dragoons, not less distinguished for the Regularity of its Discipline, than the Readiness with which it was raised.
Upwards of 600 Letters of Marque have been applied for and granted at the Admiralty Office, since his Majesty's Order in Council to make Spanish Reprisals.
As soon as the Mode of raising the new Troops (either by new Levies or an additional Militia) is established, the Nobility, &c. have determined, that a proportionate Number of their Servants shall enter by drawing Lots; and in case of Refusal to accept them over to the Disposal of the Commissioners.
A Bounties of three Guineas is offered by the several Brethren of the Trinity House to every able Seaman who shall enter to serve his Majesty; those who apply within 20 Days, their Wives, or their Mothers (if any) be entitled to the monthly Allowance during their Continuance in the Service.
On Thursday at the Meeting of the Grand Master and Brethren of the Free Masons at Sion's Hill, it was resolved to make an Offer to his Majesty of raising a Regiment for his Service.
Extract of a Letter from Portsmouth, June 28. "The Press Gang have been very successful here; they have taken upwards of 500 and discharged again not more than ten of them. The Ships are now all well manned."
It is strongly reported that the Earl of Mansfield and Sir William De Grey, are directly to retire, and that Sir Fletcher Norton and Mr. Wedderburne, will succeed them as Chief Justices of the King's Bench and Common Pleas.
We are informed by another Correspondent, that Alexander Wedderburne Esq; will in a few Days be appointed Secretary of State in the room of Lord Suffolk.
Yesterday Alexander Wedderburne, Esq; his Majesty's Attorney General, waited on the King at St. James's, and resigned his Office as Attorney General.
Mr. Wedderburne's Resignation has surprised most of the Gentlemen of the Law. It is said he has been long disgusted with his Situation, and some late Promotions have determined him to quit a Profession in which he conceived he had been neglected.
M. Wallace, it is said, will be A Torrey General, and Mr. Mansfield Solicitor General.
His Grace the Duke of Rutland, accompanied by several Gentlemen, who are appointed to serve as Officers in the Regiment to be raised by his Grace, were Yesterday at the Levee, and most graciously received.
A few Days ago was married, at Derven, near Rushmore, the Rev. Mr. William, of Lambeth, aged 30, to Miss Roberts, of Tytton, aged 19.
July 13. Governor Johnston's Squadron, which is gone out of Plymouth, is certain.
Two Letters were produced this Day at Lloyd's Coffee House, dated Alderney, giving an Account that on Saturday Evening last a firing of Guns was heard in that Island, supposed to come from Jersey, and the next Morning the Reports of Cannon were again heard; it was therefore supposed that an Attack on the Island of Jersey had again been made by the French.
The Coffee House Opinion is, that Governor Johnston being on a Cruise between Hivre de Gace and Marazion, had fallen in with some French Ships off Alderney, and that from thence the firing was heard.
Capt. Cunningham, now a Prisoner in Plymouth Castle, who took and carried into France the Dutch Packet with the Mail board, not having then a Commission from France or America, is to be tried at the next High Court of Admiralty to be held at the Old Bailey.
July 20. Sunday a News was received at the Admiralty from Plymouth, that a valuable Spanish Prize, taken by Commodore Johnston's fleet, and arrived here on Wednesday last, being entered into the Ambuscade Frigate, which immediately put to sea to join the fleet.
Governor Johnston, with the Squadron under his command, has got a roving Commission, being so limited to any place, with a power to take, sink, burn, and destroy all the ships where it may be found practicable in any of the French coasts. Besides the above Squadron, two others of a similar nature are now fitting out to annoy the French as much as possible in their own coasts, and prevent their intruding invasion of his Kingdom.
A Battalion of 1000 men are to be raised by Lord W. Fitzroy and his Son, and 1000 men by the Earl of Exeter and his nephew, the Hon. Mr. Courtenay, who propose they attended the King's Levee at the Levee at St. James's. By a different offer already made his Majesty by the Nobility, &c. it is supposed that no less than 30,000 effective men will be added to the King's army. Letters from Gibraltar mention, that the Emperor of Morocco is very well prepared for an offensive war with Spain, having an army of 20,000 men well trained and disciplined, as also a considerable Fleet ready to put to sea, and that he seems desirous to carry it on with the utmost vigour. The same letters say, that the Emperor has promised the assistance of all the Moorish Princes, both in men and ships, and that their countrymen have been well treated.
Extract of a letter from Plymouth, July 16. "Arrived his Majesty's Ship Appleby, commanded by the Grand Fleet under the command of Sir Charles Hardy."
Saturday Morning Capt. Windsor was appointed to the Command of the Normanton, 90 Guns, at Portsmouth, and left Town this Day.
Lord Chewton, Son of the Earl of Walgrave, has obtained Permission of his Majesty to raise 1000 Men, to be incorporated in the regular Forces.
The most astonishing instance of dispatch was seen last week in getting ready a new Edgerton man of war, of 74 guns, it was perhaps ever heard of. She went in dock on Thursday to be sheathed with copper, and came out again on Saturday completely finished. Such extraordinary exertion in the naval department of Great Britain must tend no less to damp the spirit of all our Enemies, and to raise the admiration and courage of every individual in this country.
July 13. Governor Johnston's Squadron, which is gone out of Plymouth, is certain. Wednesday last.

Orders are gone to Hanover to complete all the regiments in the Electorate to keep the towns and garrisons in a proper posture of defence, to fill the magazine and arsenals, and make every proper disposition for the safety of their country.
A new 64 gun ship is ordered to be built at Harwich for his Majesty's service, to be called the Lye, after an old ship of that name, taken the beginning of last war by Admiral Boscawen, from the French, which now lies as a break water at Sheerness.
The Champion, a new Frigate of 32 Guns, is put into Commission, and the Command given to the Hon. Charles Powell Hamilton, Esq.

Extract of a letter from Portsmouth, dated July 19.
"Sailed the Amazon Frigate, and Pheasant cutter, for Jersey."
"Come into harbour a fine new frigate of 28 guns, called the Brilliant, lately launched at Bucker's yard."
"Gone out of harbour to Spithead, the formidable, of 90 guns, which will sail in a day or two to join the grand fleet."

Extract of a letter from Chatham, July 19.
"His Majesty's ship Scarborough, of 20 guns, is put into commission at this port. The Emerald and Richmond frigates, of 32 guns each, are ordered to be sent for sea with the greatest dispatch."
Yesterday the Right Hon. the Earl of Antrim set off for Ireland, in order to raise a volunteer company for his Majesty's service, on his estate in the north part of that kingdom.
The Earl of Winchester has obtained permission of his Majesty to raise 1000 men to be incorporated with the regular regiments of guards. Great numbers at ten guineas per man have already enrolled.
The Duke of Marlborough has subscribed 500 l. towards raising volunteer companies, to be added to the Oxfordshire militia.
The fleet under Sir Charles Hardy consisted of 32 ships of the line before its return into Torbay; five ships have already joined him, five more are in readiness, and seven ships in such forwardness of repair, that in a few days it is expected the British fleet will consist of 49 sail of the line, besides two fifty gun ships, frigates, sloops, and fire ships.
Yesterday advice was received, that while Sir Charles Hardy lay with his grand fleet at Torbay, 23 sail of French merchant ships got into Brest from St. Domingo, under convoy of two frigates.
In the course of this month the following fleets are expected to arrive, viz. the East India, the West India, the New-York, and Lisbon, besides two packets which are daily expected.
This morning advice was received at the General Post Office, that his Majesty's packet-boat the Anna Theresa, Capt. Gaylard, was safe arrived off Falmouth, with the Mail from the West Indies; but it was not come on shore when the Post set out from Falmouth; it could not be forwarded, but is expected to be sent up by express the moment it is landed.
Extract of a letter from Portsmouth, July 19.
"The Flying Fish cutter failed from Spithead on Tuesday, and last night she brought into Spithead a lugtail privateer, taken off the back of the Island, with several Ransomers on board, taken the same day."
Advice is received at the Admiralty Office of a mutiny having broken out in the Spanish division of the combined fleet, owing to one of d'Ovillon's orders.
Dublin, July 24. A meeting of several Gentlemen of the County of Dublin is, we hear to be held next week, to form a volunteer regiment of Light Cavalry; the horses are to be large sized bay hunters, and the uniform a light green faced with white, with silver laced button-holes and epaulets.
Gibraltar June 20. The last letters from Port bring advice, that on the 2d of this month the Emperor of Morocco suddenly departed from Mequinez with a large army, directing his march to Segisima, to repress the tumults in that province, which he began by killing upwards of 2000 by the point of the sword, and beheaded 300 more, whose heads he fixed on the walls of Old Port; he also seized 500 persons, whose houses and property he burned, and then marched to punish the other mutineers.
Madrid, July 5. Since it has been publicly known that the siege of Gibraltar will be one of the first operations of our armies by land and sea, every one is in hopes of seeing us off of that important object again; but as it is almost impregnable by force, the plan is to reduce it by famine. In consequence of which, it is death to furnish that place with any provision, and our army will block it up on the land side, whilst a division of the Cadiz squadron will anchor in the bay, which will be reinforced with two 70 gun ships, two frigates, two chebecs, of 32 guns, and seven gallies, which sailed from Cartagena the 25th of last month, and with two 70 gun ships, two frigates, two chebecs, two bomb ketches, and three flat boats, with a 24 pounder in each under Don Barcelo. We are assured that the rest of the Cadiz fleet is failed for Cape St. Vincent to join the Toulon fleet. With regard to the Ferrel fleet, which was understood to be hindered that squadron from sailing, which has prevented a great stroke, and for which Don Antonio d'Arce is displaced, and Don Juan succeeds him as Commander of the Spanish fleet.
Paris, July 23. We have received advice, that upon the arrival of the fleet under Count D'Orvilliers at Corunna, the Spanish Commander in Chief refused to come out of the road to join the French fleet, at first pretending contrary wind, and when they became favourable raised new difficulties about the rank he was to hold. These advices say, that this delay having caused the failure of an important enterprise, complaints have been made to the Court of Madrid of the above mentioned Commander who has been displaced from the command, and is succeeded by Don Solano.
Letters from Madrid, of the 5th of July, confirm these accounts entirely, and add, that the publication forbidding any trade or communication with the English was received by the people with censure, surprise, and discontent.
BOSTON, Sept. 20. The Spaniards have discovered a new silver mine in Mexico, of such amazing richness that it promises to deluge Europe with silver. Some accounts say, that it will lessen the value of that metal one half.
Mr. Howe.
IT is certainly a great impression on the public, and extremely just to individuals to exhibit in news papers productions, such as letters from Commanding Officers of Posts, &c. which are not authentic copies of their originals. I am induced to make this observation from seeing in a Worcester paper of the 23d instant, a letter from George Leonard, Esq. to the commanding officer at Falmouth, relative to the capture of Mr. Welsh, Master of the Ship Restoration, and answer thereto. Mr. Leonard's letter is (I believe) truly copied, but the answer printed for Major Dimock does not resemble the original in any respect.
That all due credit may be allowed the Major for his honorable and martial sentiments, and for his other talents, I could wish the following genuine answer may be published, the original of which is now on the spot.
To the Commanding Officer of the Fleet now in the Vineyard Sound.
Falmouth, Sept. 10. 1779.
Sir I read your by Sq. Smith Mr. Welsh your prisoner who you mention in your letter to the Commanding Officer at Falmouth was taken by a party under my command. I think the party did their duty and acted according to their instructions with the honor of war, he has been treated with honor since made a prisoner by us. I invited him to the Commanding Officer of the regiment where he was entertained. I am not surprised at your threat of devastation had nothing to expect but devastation from your intention considering your conduct at April.
JOSEPH DIMOCK, Major commanding Officer now on the spot.
