The Duke of Clarence, in October, 1811, being at
Ramsgate, asked after the grave of an old shipmate, who he
knew had died there. He was shown it, and, after a little
pause, asked where the monument was, and being told the re-
latives of the deceased officer could not afford to put up one,
"Then," said the Prince, "send for a mason, and I will order
and pay for one." Taking a pencil, he wrote the following,
and it is inscribed and fixed in St. Lawrence Church, or.
marble, giving the mason an order for all the expense :

MDR? IV. or Faiwca AND DE SCHOMDERG.—On
the eve of action, de Schoenberg, the General of the German ausiltar:ts,
was pressed by his troops to ask Henry for their pay. The King, destitute
of funds, was irritated at the request. " A man of courage," he
eviler], " would not have asked ter money on the eve of battle.
The next morning, while preparing for action, Henry perceived the Ge-
neral, and thus accosted him :—" Schomberg, 1 have insulted you, and
as this day may be the last of my life, I would not tarry away the ho-
nour of a gentleman, and be unable to restore it. I know your valour,
and ask your pardon: embrace me." " Your Majesty wounded ex
yesterday—you kill rue to-day," replied the veteran, 011:1C011M and he

ST. MICHAZI.PS CROOKILD-LANE.—Thio church is to
come down, to make way for the approaches to the new
London Bridge. The church is of very ancient foundation,
as appears by John de Berbera, who was Rector thereof,
and died in the year 1304. The church was, originally.
a very small plain building, and stood amidst lay-stalls
and slaughter-grounds, used by the butchers of East-
cheap market. The old church was entirely destroyed in
the great Ire of London, in 1666, and the present edifice
erected in its stead. The patronage of this church was an-
ciently in the Prior and Convent of St. Augustine s, Canter-
bury, in whom it continued till the year 1408, since which
time it has been vested in the Archbishops of that See, and
is one of the 13 peculiars in the City of Loudon belonging to
Canterbury. Hence the recent visit of his Grace to this
church, te determine whether he should oppomor support
the Bill for taking it down, in his place in Parliament.
