BRIEF MEMOIR of our Late GANCIOLTS SOVEREIGN.

His most Sacred Majesty KingGF ()act the Tittßt) was

born on the 24th of May, 1738, U.S.; which dare, sinte the

itnproyenscut of the style in 1752, has become tilt 41.11 Of 3ittie:

lieA(as the eldest son of Frederick, late Prince of Wales,

who died in 1731, and left his eldest son, George Williatn

Frederick, a minor, at the early age of thirteen. The im-

portant charo of educating the Heir Apparent was confided

'to some of the most erudite and competent men of the day,

and as he advanced towards maturity, the once celebrated

John Earl of Bute, who had acquired a peat aseemdancy in

he Court of the )owager Princess of Wales, was supposed

to have no small influence in formin4 the mental character

of his future Sovereign. On the 25th of October, 174;0, his

Nlaje,ty, then Prince of Wales, ascended to the Throne

of atie }lcalaii on the demise of his Royal Grandfather,

King George the Steond. The New King eras prochtim-

eti on the following- day, and his youth, beitqr, then in

the t %velity-t hi rd year of his :,;e, toget her with hi! atni-

al)le and ingenuous per,onal character, united all hearts,

and all parties, and all clescriptims of his subjects, in fat our

of their nt w Sovereign. His venerable (;ra nant her died

in the /wine of military glory, and in the course of the most

successful war in which this country was ever engaged• King

Georg.: the Third, in the benevolence of his 11(art, manifested

a desire for the restoration of peace, tl►ough the belli;erent

operations of his Royal Predecessor were by no means relax-

ed. Wishing to establish an Administration on a liberal and

comprehensive basis, some chavgex, tlionol not extensive, were

made in the Ministry. Of these the most prominent WAS the

appointnint of the Earl of Bute, to a s►:at, itt the Cabinet, as

Secretary for the Southern Department, in Alay 1761. The

illustrious \l'm. Pitt, afterwards Earl of Chatham, was then

Secretary for the Northern, and for many years considered as

rflicieot head of the Administration. Shortly niter the tree•

appointments, that great linister complained of his former

puiver being circumscribed, throUgh undefined influence, aril

in the following October' be reshot(' his situation ; the Earl

of Egreutont was appointed to':aneered bins. Several other

'changes subsequently took place, particularly that of the re-

nerable Duke of Newcastle as First Lord of the Treasury, on

wh ich•the Ea,rl of Bute was appointed to that high situation,

and W:IS considered as first Minister. Meantime the overa-

tions of the war were continued with -6i:our, and attended

with brilliant success. Negociations for peace were shortly

after Set oti foot, and •brought to a pacific conclusion in 1 i(;3,

though the terms on which peace was granted were not a

little impugned as inadequate to the great and glorious suc-

cesie3 achieved by the arms of Great Britain.

Pen►ling the above occurrences, his Majesty, on the 9th of

Sept. 1761, married the Princess Charlotte of Ilecidenhurgli-

Strclitz, our late most Gracious Queen, and en the 22d of

the same month, the august ceremony of tli►ir Coronation

took place. This union, which during so many years pre-

sented a scene of uninterrupted conjugal felicity, it is well

known produced a fine and unmet on. progeny; 15 children,

two of whom died at a rcry rally agv, the Princes Oct:►rius

and Alfretl, and nearly ten years since the P►iucess

their youngest daughter, and very recently the

justly-lamented Dukc of Kent.

Reverting to the political occurrences of his Majesty's

Reign, several changes in Administration took place in the in-

terval between the dose of the Seven Years' War, in 1763,

anti the unfortunate American contest, the first hostilities in

whicli took place in 177.5. The Ministry were very little of a

permanent character until the appointment of Lord North

to its !mad, in 1.770. Tpwartis the latter part of that unhappy

contest, the Ministers of the Crown grapple with

one of the ablest and most formidable Oppositions recordedl

in the annals of Parliament, having the Pitts, father and son,.

Burke, Fox, Sheridan, CanVtien, and Shelburne, for its illus-

trious leaders in 'either. At length, in March, 178?,

this- 09Forition triumphed, anti the their Nlisiisters were eon-
Itr4ined to resign. A n,cw'''lllinistcy was appointed, of which

those who were considered as the Whig. Leaders were consti-
tuted the heads. Mr. Fox was rejirtled as the efficient NII-

'lister, and certainly took the lead' in the..l-I.iuse of Commons.

But d
.9ratiou was very short : _the Marquess of Rocking-

ham dietrinthy following July. and the 'E.ArI of Shelburne
(since Marquess of Lansdowne), was his successor at the

head of the Trsasur}-. an anointment Which it was asserted

tootUt,l'Teil the linowledge of some of his col-

kit esterksive,. resignation ,frpro r.nvotig these was

the colfseluencli. This Adcliiiistration had the honour, of

bringing forwafd illustrioqi William Pitt, as Chancellor
of the Exchequer; at the unprecedeurted early age of 23. The

extensive 'arid' Complicated vi;;rfare arising out of the rlu►eri-

can corttest.was brought to. a Oise by this Administration,
who concluded a Prelin'nftryTreaty of Peace, towards the

end of 1782. In the subsequent April the well linown eoali-

tiqn, of which Mr. Fox and Lord North were the heads, took

place, and the uusting from power of his Niajesty's Ministers

was the consequence.

Administration owcd its dow•nf;d. to the very extraor-

dinar}• measure, whereby itsleadersattempted to ►est all the

power, and
,Patronage, and, in a great tlei&e, all the co►n-

niercial rights of the East, India.Compan7 in themselves. lii

the result they were drciqedly clstnisse4.lroni (Mice by his

Alajcsty. ajt a new:Administration appointed, at which that

.great, illustrious, atul must (lisittieresttd Statesman, the im-

mortal w•as deservedly placed at the head.

This event took place io the close of. 1783. The.Atlministra-

tion of tho King's Government was never so ably or so pros-

perously conducted, as under the auspices of this trulfpatriotic

lihister, who alike ehjoyed the fit'votft4 ant confidence both of

his Sovereign and his 'subjects. ThMitimitircial prosperity
of Britain was never so extended, nor its pubqc credit so !vigil.

This scene of peace, happiness, and prosperity continued pro-
gressive and increasing, till the direful Political anomaly, that

hydra of calaniities—the French Revolution broke forth, and

necessary war. On these stJpettdous events, unparalleled in

their consequences arid effeets,in the pare of history, this ist.

the events are comparatively of remit occurrence; they are

kno*n and felti and will, if Rot already. so,. be duly appre-

the decree of Providence he was not long to continue;

he was called to a better world, and an Administration

formed principally of his political opponents, but whose

conduct was snch as to induce his Majesty to dismiss

them. A Government more conformant to the Sovereign's

principles and wishes, was formed, and :who continued

to administer the affairs of this great. Empire, as well

domestically •s belligerently, in a way which merited

general approbation and applaule. The war which the

unprincipled ambition of the. thrn Ruler of France had

forced the country into, Was assuming a novel and fortunate

aspect, and the triumphs of the military pride of Britain, the

illustrious Wellington, we7re beginning to develop themselves,

when it pleased the inscrutable will and purposes of the Most

High to afflict our late Sovereign, in a way that closed ictn•

ally his long and eventful, but generally happy and auspi-

ciou reign.

We must here draw the curtain : the political and personal

memoir of his late Majesty, even in sketch, closes. A new'

era of Royal Government and Administration has commenced,

which appertains to a personal classification different from that

adverted to in this-part of our Journal. II s Royal Ili,gliness

sent entlancholy occasion, immediately interest-

Blackstone, tints expresses hintsel.f A Parlia-

ment may be dissolved by a demise of the Crown.

—This dissolution formerly happened immediately

upon the deaf Ii of the reigning Sovereign

for he being in law considered as the head of the

Parlistinettl, (caput, principiunt, et finis,) that

failing, the whole body vi its belt! Jo he extinct,

But the calling a new ►'arliament immediately on

he intolguration of the Successor being found

convenient, anti dangers being appreliencird front

having no Pailiement, in being, in case of a clis-

puled succession, it %VAS enacted by the stutntes

of 7 and S William 311. c. 13, and 6 Anne, c. 7,

that the Parliament in being shall continue for six

months alter tl►e cle.►t}i of any X.iog or Q ►een,

unless sooner prorogued or dissolved by tbe Sue-

eessor ; that if the Parliament be, at the time of

the King's death, separated by adjournaient or

prorogation, it shall notwithstanding assemble
immediately ; and that it no l'arliAtnent is then

in being, tie Members of ibe last I'arli4tnent shall

assemble, and be again a Parliament."

This being Crown-paper day, the Court was

occupied the whole morning in arguments upon
parish settlement cases, none of which were of

public interest.

CRINI INA I. INFORMATION.

Mr. GURNEY moved for a 'rule to show cause

why a criminal information should not be file"

agninst a respectable Far trier, flamed Sewell.

TI, e

motion was n►ade on behalf of a Magistrate of the
County of Norfolk, whose name the Learned

Counsel did not mention. It appeared, from the
d virs, that an information having been laid

before the Magistrate against :wo SOUS of Mr
- .

Sewell, and another person, for offences under

the Turnilik- Act, they were convicted by the
Magistrate, in the execution of his duty. A few

days af;ei-warils \lr. Sewell met the Nlagistrate in

the !old, and said to Lim, " I should like to

k ti.* \slim pm 41111 St It'd after set vitig my sons
so." The lAL4gistrate 'replied "1f you ask Inc a

In the course of last term, the Solicitor-Grue.-
