On I'ueiday the r9th Of March an eXprels
arrived from Lord Harcoart, cur Ambshador
at Paris, with al account that the King of
France had written letter to the King of
Spain, wherein he ahured the Catholic King,
Is I hat he was ATTAINED of the oondu6. Of
the Court OF London that he was ready
and wiling to CO operate with the King Of
Spain, in whatever future meafnres ihou'd
. be judged expedient that he put hlmlelf
cainely under The direction and wifdom Of
the Catholic King ; and only begged, that
in their future operations that Monarch
would have an eye to the preient lltuation
Of France" The next day Lord North. and
the two Secretaries Of State, waited on the
King, who was exceedingly ihocked at Ie-
ceiving this account.

Atrf 3. The cares of the Lord Mayor
for the Public and the City have not ceafed
by his imprisonment in the Tower. As
there is no Sitting Alderman at Guildhall on
Saturday, his Lordfhp defired one of his bre
tbren to attend at the Maniion- Houle, that
there might be no failure of jufice, nor any
innocent perfon kept in confinement till
Monday, who was entitled to adilcharge on
Saturday. The City arc extremely pleafed
with this conduct Of his Lordlhip.
The two Kensedirs, who have long been
terror to all thepriloncrs in the Kings Bench
and having wounded and iIl-ueated all who
fell in their way, have at length fallen upot
one another one of them having Taft week
BIT piece out of the others breaf.
Acoreipondent fays, it is not TO be doubt
ed, that number Of miniferialwritefs will,
during the reces of the Parliament, be fully
employed in viIifying and traducing the cha
raeters Of the Lord Mayor and Mr.. Alderman
Oliver, as the miniHry mutt endeAvour TO
lower thcfe two upright Gentlemen in the
peoples opinions.

rier that arrived from Spain on Saturday lah,
is not in anfwer TO thofe fent from London
the 9Th and Ith of March, and therefore is
not very material. The meGeDger that was
difpatched by Lord Rockford with the ultl-
matum, was to be at Paris ION bis return to
London the I'd inf. and is expected here to
morrow, which, i! is fuppofed, will make
