"Governorship of Coventry Island. H. M. S. Yellow-jack, Commander Jaunders, has brought letters and papers from Coventry Island. H. E. Sir Thomas Liverseege had fallen a victim to the prevailing fever at Swampton. His loss is deeply felt in the flourishing colony. We hear that the governorship has been offered to Colonel Rawdon Crawley, . ., a distinguished Waterloo officer. We need not only men of acknowledged bravery, but men of administrative talents to superintend the affairs of our colonies; and we have no

381


doubt that the gentleman selected by the Colonial Office to fill the lamented vacancy which has occurred at Coventry Island is admirably calculated for the post which he is about to occupy."

"It will be found from the foreign prints which from time to time, as occasion offers, will be mentioned in this paper, that the author has taken care to be duly furnished with all that comes from abroad in


any language. And for an assurance that he will not, under any pretence of having private intelligence, impose any additions of feigned circumstances to an action, but give his extracts fairly and impartially, at the beginning of each article he will quote the foreign paper from whence it is taken, that the public, seeing from what country a piece of news comes, with the allowance of that government, may be better able to judge of the credibility and fairness of the relation. Nor will he take upon himself to give any comments or conjectures of his own, but will relate only matter-of-facts, supposing other people to have sense enough to make reflections for themselves. The Courant (as the title shows) will be published daily, being designed to give all the material news as soon as every post arrives, and is confined to half the compass, to save the public at least half the impertinences of ordinary newspapers."

, , "True Patriot" 5 1745 :

"... being informed by my bookseller, a man of great sagacity in his business that nobody of present reads anything but newspapers, I have determined to conform myself to the reigning taste. The number indeed, of these writers at first a little staggered us both, but upon perusal of their works, I fancied I had discovered a little imperfection in them all, which somewhat diminished the force of this objection... The first little imperfection in these writings is that there is scarce a a syllable of truth in any of them. If this be admitted to be a fault, it requires no other evidence than themselves and the perpetual contradictions which occur, not only on comparing one with the other, but the same author with himself on different days. Secondly, there is no SENSE in them. To prove this, likewise, I appeal to their works. Thirdly, there is in reality NOTHING in them at all. And this also must be allowed by their readers, if paragraphs which contain neither wit nor humour, nor sense, not the least importance, may be properly said to contain nothing. Such are the arrival of my Lord - with a great equipage; the marriage of Miss , of great beauty and merit? and the death of Mr. , who was never heard of in his life, &c. &c. Nor will this appear strange if we consider who are the authors of such tracts namely, the journeymen of booksellers, of whom, I believe, much the same may be truly predicated as of these their productions. But the encourage-

388


ment with which these lucubrations are read may seem more strange and more difficult to be accounted for. And here I cannot agree with my bookseller, that their eminent badness recommends them. The true reason is, I believe, simply the same which I once heard an economist assign for the content and satisfaction with which his family drank watercider viz., because they could procure no better liquor. Indeed, I make no doubt but that the understanding as well as the palate, though it may out of necessity swallow the worse, will in general prefer the better."

"Such as have settled in new habitations since the late fire, and desire for the convenience of their correspondence to publish the place of their present abode, or to give notice of goods lost or found, may repair to the corner house in Bloomsbury, or on the east side of the great square, before the house of the Right Honorable the Lord Treasurer where there is care taken for the receipt and publication of such advertisements."

"If any have a place, belonging to the law or otherwise, that is worth £ 1,000 to £ 2,000, I can help to a customer."

"I know of several men and women whose friends would gladly have them match'd, which I'll endeavour to do, as from time to time I shall hear of such whose circumstances are likely to agree; and I'll assure such as will come to me it shall be done with all the honour and secrecy imaginable. Their own parents shall not manage it more to their satisfaction, and the more comes to me the better I shall be able to serve 'em."

"A fair house in Eastcheap, next to the Flower-de-lis, now in the tenure of a smith, with a fair yard laid with freestone, and a vault underneath, with a cellar under the shop, done with the same stone, is to be sold. I have the disposal of it."

"Towards the close of the last session, the F-------------- t L------ d of the

T----- was missing. In a day or two it came out that his G----------------- e was

gone down to the sea coast with Miss N----------- ------ s, to attend her on

board a vessel for France. About the end of March an express arrived at Dover, ordering one of the T y. He came in the evening and embarked for Calais. Various were the speculations of the people of Dover on the purport of this embassy at such a busy time. Lo! the Secretary returned with his errand, Miss N ----------------------- s in his hand. On Wednesday the 14th April his G e attended Mrs. H w, commonly

called Miss N------- P------ s, to Ranelagh, and the Saturday following,

he introduced her to the Opera, and sat behind her in waiting. It is

only the prerogative of a F------------ t M------ r to appear with his mistress

in public, and to show her more respect than he ever showed his wife." (Political Register, May, 1758).

"In this dress I intend to abuse the xxx and the xxx; I intend to

lash not only the m----------- stry, but every man who hath any p--------------- ce

or p------ ns------- m from the g--------- vernm t, or who is entrusted with

any degree of power or trust under it, let his r--------------- nk be ever so high,

or his ch r---- cter, never so good. For this purpose I have provided

myself with a vast quantity of Italian letter, and asterisks of all sorts. And as for all the words which I embowel, or rather envowel, I will never so mangle them but they shall be as well known as if they retained every vowel in them. This I promise myself, that when I have any meaning they shall understand it."
