The account of Lady ROMILLY and her f.__am...ily,
which has appeared in all the Papers, is erroneous.
Her maiden name was GAaEETT, as will appear
from the announcement of her marriage, with Sir
SAMUEL ROMILLY, in -The Gentleman's Magazine,
for Jan. 1798, vol. 68, p. 83.
" January 3.—Married, at Knill, in the County of Here-
ford., Samuel Romilly, Esq of Lincoln's Inn, to Miss Gar-
butt, eldest daughter ot Francis Garbett, Esq. of Knill Court?*
To-morrow, being the first Sunday in Michael-
mas Term, the Judges, Sergeants, and principal
Barristers, will go in grand procession to St.
Paul's, where an appropriate Sermon will be
preached by the Lord Mayor's Chaplain.
On Thursday evening the Earl of MAccirs-
FIELD and W. T. MONEY, Esq., were elected Fel.
lows of the Royal Society.
FlEE.—Between eleven and twelve o'clock last
night, a fire broke out in the workshop of
Mr. MANDY, cabinet-maker, the corner of
Green's-buildings, New-cut, Lambeth, which
burned with great fury, and consumed the
entire of the building, with its contents—a
great quantity of timber, cabinet-makers' tools,
&c. before any engine arrived. The workshop
was a few paces behind the dwelling-house, but
so detached that the 'flames, happily, did not corn•
municate. A man was at work last night by
candle-light till nine o'clock, and the fire is sup-
posed to have originated through a spark basing
dropped from his candle, which lay smouldering
among the shavings.
Green Peas and Strawberries, of a remarkably
fine flavour, were gathered, last week, in au opts
garden at Hereford ; and scores of Roses are now
daily brought to Covent Garden-market.
