O(tlul%AL ANRCDOTE OF THZ LAT& EARL .ST.
Vsr-
cvev. great and splendid talents for which the
late Elul St. Vincent was distinguished as a naval Com-
mander, require no additional testimony to render them
illustrious. But the noble qualities he evinced in so-
cial life, were frequently concealed in the privacy he
courted, and need only to he known to gain an
equal share of admiration and respect. The friendships his
was used to cultivate, were as ardent, prompt and active, a
the talents he displayed in his seat at the Admiralty Board,s
or in the command of his Fleet. As an evidence of this lively
feeling, we give the following anecdote, in the form in
which we received it, some years since, from the arty in
whose behalf ft was called forth.—Betware 40 end
became
ears
ago, Captain Jervis was stationed at glytnouth, and
emi-
a frequent visitor at the house of a worthy Quaker, an
nent grocer in that town. Some years afterwards, a Q esker
Banking-house, of Lombard-street (in which the Captain's
acquaintance. Friend Fox, kept an account) stopped pay-
ment. Captain Jervis had, for some time, retired to'a dis-
tont kingdom, and bad not kept up a punctual correaptinii-
ence with his Plymouth Friend. Soon, however, after the
failure of the hankinhouse was known, Friend Fox receiv-
ed a letter from the Captain, expressive of his deep coqcern
at the intelligence—apprehensive that his friend might be a
sufferer by the event—requesting him immediately to let him
know, and assuring him of his ready assistance to the PUS
extent of his powers. Mr. Fox, very fortunately, suffered
little or no loss on the occasion ; but did not less feet a
sense of obligation for such an heroic proof of friendship.—
While he related this, however, to the writer of the aoccasiureeote,
he added, with concern, (whethe observed might on
surprise),that after his noble friend had become an Earl, and
was resident, as naval Commander at Plymouth, he never
once attempted to renew the ancient intimacy. • "But,"
said
the worthy and animated old man, that never has dimiuished
the grateful feeliug with which I have regarded his uncom-
mon friendship ; and that feeling," added he, clapping his
hand upon his breast) " will I continue to cherish, chile
memory holds its seat !"
CORN EXCDANHE.—There, is a short Supply of roost
kinds of Crain at Market this looming, and Wheat rt.
mains dull at Monday's priced. In Barley there is no
alteration. Beans and Peas sell on fail as pod terms
as last voted. There is a fair Trade for Oats at rather
1 a better price.
