On Wednesday sennight the remains of Mrs.
GORDON, wife of the Rev. LOCKHART GORDON,
were interred (at the expence of a few charitably
disposed people) in the Holy Trinity church-yard,
Dorchester. She was a branch of a very respeClable
family in Shropshire, but by her union incurred the
displeasure of all her friends, and was renounced by
them for ever. She arrived at Dorchester unpro-
teeled, where she took an obscure lodging. The
idea of being thus abandoned, and the shock she re-
ceived bya recent transaaion in Oxfordshire, prey.
ed so forcibly on her, that, she fell a vitirrn to in-
consolable grief, in her zrst year.---11u11 Packet.

On Thursday evening, a man called upon Mr.

on the Afton Road, when a dispute arose, and the
man gave Mr. Et Krt a violent blow on his tem-

LOUIS XVI.

A:1 ACCOUNT OF THE JOURNEY or LOUIS

KING OF FRANCE, WITH TILE ROYAL FAM I Li?

FROM PARIS TO VARENNES, AND OF THE F.

RETURN TO THE CAPITAL, IN JUNE, 1791.
(Continued from our Pal:er of Tvesdai,, M f S )

When supper was over, the three g,:7l72'es.c/u:corli
met at the door of their Master's apartment, there
to pass Oie night, after helping his Majesty to ur...
dress.

They there considered how they should hest re-,
turn the money given to them at Varenne : and in
the morning when, at the appointed hour, they en,
rered the apartment where their Majesties nrd the
Princess Elizabeth were met, they begged leave to
restore the present._
They were, however, dire led to keep the mu,
ney ; hut as the sum was too consider Able to be
suared to fall into the hands of the rabble, they
wished much to retain in their hands only
Loitis.d'ors.

Here their Majesties expresssing their serious
apprehensions for the safety of these
,Gentlemen,
M. de Moustier requested, that not a thoUght
should be wasted on their fate; but that their Ma,
jesties would be assured that they were prepared for
every event.
The King, the Queen, and Princess' Eliz,berh,
answered, that they were too well convinced of the
loyalty and faithful attachment of the whole body
of gardes.da-corps, to have any auubts on that
sotijeet ; and, at the same time, each of them, in
tears, embraced, in their turn, the three Gentle-
men, who, overwhelmed with such goodness and
condescension, felt themselves animated to brave a
thousand deaths to evince their zeal and devotion.

Their Majesties then desired the Gentlemen to
give them the names, " Not (said they) of yout
nearest relations, for they .may be easily diworer.
ed, but of those persons in whom you are particu.
lady interested, or to whom you may lie under ob.
higations."
On this, M. de Vapory wrote, in the pocket.
hook of their august Master, the names of their
thcrs anti brothers alone.

Amongst the Officers of the National Guards at
Chalons, there was one who carried his insolence
so far, as to prescribe rules to his Majetr, and
even to reproach him for mal-administ ration in
public affairs. When no one :attempted to restrain
this behaviour, the King sod, with the greatest
mildness, " Pray, let this Gentleman and his
friends withdraw, that they miy not thus torture
persons of a right way of ti,inking (les ames hoz,
nites). Excessive heat and fatigue have brought
them into their present state; but to_morrow if
they shall recolleo what they have now said, they.
will be sorry for it."
As none, however, took any notice of his re-
quest, he turned away from them, with these words
‘, I once flattered Myself that I had to lament the
errors of only the least-informed portion of my peo.
ple, misled by a few faaious men ; but now I per-
ceive that many of those who ought to know heifer
things are equally depraved :" and when the King
had so said, as it was the festival of Corpus Chri •f
(La Fite Dieu), he immediately prepared to attend
divine service.

The Royal Family, whom no circumstance coubl;
ever-draw aside from the regular discharge of their
duty to the Supreme'. Bting, then reptaire►i to the
chapel of the Inte►:dant's hotel ; but scarcely had.
they been there a few minutes, when the peo-
ple rushed tumultuously in, and behaved with such
scandalous indecency, that the Royal Family were
forced to withdraw.

" Nothing (said his Majesty, on rising from his
knees) ought to surprize us on the part of rmn who
have laid aside all respeet even for their Maket
but it is the duty of all those :vhf► know the happi_
ness of living in, submission to his laws, to avoid
giving any pretence for the commission of greater
enormities."
After their return from the chapel, the Royal
Family retired for, a few moments to their apart-
ment, and then set out on their melancholy journey ,
loaded with every insult from the surrounding
crowd'.

This crowd, however, might be considered Ns
civil, when compared with that which assembled
afterwards at Epernay, where the Royal Family
were met by the Dqtries from the Assembly at
raris, Pethion, Barnave, Dumas, Latour-iVlaubourg,
and another, whose name M. de Moustier had
omitted to mark down in his j•)urnal, but who had
an appearance of greater civility than the others, to
whom, indeed, he seemed to be subordinate.
Two of these Deputies, Pethion and Barnave,
placed themselves in the carriage with the Royal
Family ; so that it now contained ho few/ than

seven persons.
From this moment the cry of wive 1e Poi, which
had now and then been faintly heard, ceased entirety
to welcome the Royal Family all the way to Peris.
It was succeeded by those of rivezt let Depute's !
P";,-ve Balvave ! for Barnave appeared to be the idol
of the people.
'With these cries were mingled others, such as,
Let us eat the hearts of the King and Queen, &c.
&c. too atrocious and horrible to be conveyed to
British ears
A poor Priest was pasFing quietly along the road,
near Epernay, on his return from performing divine
service at a neighbouring village, with his book

under his arm. - • •
It was enough that he was 'observed to be a cler-
gyman, to draw on him the attacks of the multitude.
To save himself from their fury, he rushed amidst
a party of National Guards, mounted on horses,
formerly belonging to the Doke de Gramont's
company 'of the gardes-a'll.corps, when quartered
at Chalons, One of these men invited the priest
to mount behind him, as if he meant to proteef the
unhappy man from the populace : but it was only to
have a better opportuuity of insulting him. Soon
after, a grenadier, walking near the horSe, laying
hold of the priest's leg, threw him over, just before
the fore...vheels of the carriage. The wretched
man, thinking to escape from death, pressed in be-
tween the wheels, but was there twice wounded with
a bayonet, to force him to come our.
He was afterwards dispatched by the muskets of
the National Guards ; one of wlwre, in the hearing

PIIII“c-OFFICE, MARLBOROUGH-STREET.—
Yesterday Thomas Sutton, Coachman to a Lady at
the West.end of the Town, was charged with run.
ring over a. woman and a child in the Haymarket
the preceding evening, by which they were both
severely itirt. Two witnesses proved that there
tad been some violent altercation between the Pri-
soner and another coachman for some time previous
to the time of the accident taking place ; that he
gave over the wordy contest and drove off; that
the populace hooted and hissed after him ; and that
while he turned round to see who was hissing, the
woman and child crossed over before his horses and
met with the accident. A Surgeon attended, and
described technically the situation of the patients,
but would not take upon himself the responsibility
cf pronouncing the woman but of danger.
.A good
deal of intercession was made for the man, and se-
curity was offered for the payment of any damages.
Ihe Magistrate, however, observed, that when
one person had done an action that might possibly
affect the life of another, there could be no value
set upon a life, and therefore all idea of charafter or
cf money was out of the question. The Prisoner
was then recommitted, until the woman shall be
declared out of danger.
