The Lath Chronicle says that two large fish, un
common on their coasts, were thrown in by the sea
at Miltown, last week. The one a Sea Devil, or
Toad-fish, the other a large X'phias, or Sword-fish ;
this latter weighing nearly ten stone.
On the north side of St. Giles's church yard (near
the iron railing) there are two grave-stones—on one
is lettered—•" Here lies the body of Jame, Earl of
Derwentwater, who was beheaded on Tower-hill, the
24:h of February, 1716, aged 27 ;" and on the
other—" Here lies the body of the Hon. Charles
Ratcliffe, who was beheaded on Tower.hill the Bth

serve, that the latter was brother to the former.
A case of an uncommon native came under the
consideration of the Justices of Peace for the Western
District of Fife, at Dunfermline, on the list instant.
Robert Mitchell, skipper, and the rest of the crew of
the Lark pinnace of Aberdour, were prosecuted by
the Procurator Fiscal for having maltreated a very
young man, one of the passengers, and taking him
back to Aberdour against his inclination, and to the
great disquiet of his parents, who live in Edinburgh,
because he could not at the moment pay the freight.
The Justices, after aproof was led, found the charge
established, and fined the crew in a sum amounting
with expenses, to eight guineas.
