the (heal Duke of Marlborough, chiefly addressed
io•the then.Seeretary of *rive; Sir Chai. fledges,
and. many of then containing matter of very coil-
siderahle ittterest.
These Letters, together with three Notes of
her ,Majesty st;?.teeo Anne. to Ater favourite Serre-
try, ante sold for 'Ficeigundred and Seventy
Guineas. „..

Nlost of the Duke taf Slstilhormigh's Letters
were written
stinting his bri),hant. career ou the
Continent, in the beginning of .the last century,
and comAin, besides military details, some curious
diplomatib.partieulars. snme few of , the Letters
were written, it would appear, .in part by his
Grace's confidential Secretary,, at times, proba-
bly, when the nature QI his.high official duties
afforded him not much personal leisure ; but even
in thoseinsonees•they are all concluded by a line
or two in his own hami, and finally signed by
himself.

The Duke, in one of .his Letters, states, that
he, was in the hands of the enemy five hours, but
that he was providentially taken lot Gen. Church -
hill, and :that he. escaped, %;-ithout the enemy
being aware of the prize they had had wit:ein
their power !

The superscription or address of Queen Anne's
note's is in a torn) which prevails to a coniitterattle
extent at the present <l"y : the word Fur is used
in
,the following manner
