August, 28th Extract from a Europe Paper, dated January 11th 1781. BIRR, January 11. BETWEEN the hours of six and seven o'Clock on the night of the 19 ult Mr. John Carrol of Tipperary was on his journey for Cashel from home, on the road leading thro' Thomastown, he was surprised by the roaring of a bull which he thought stood under the covert of the Trees, on one side of the road, suspecting it to be one of Mr. Mathews Bulls, which was publickly known to be very vicious; he scarcely advanced 20 yards further, when on a sudden this animal, which roared so horribly, appeared to him just in size and form of a pig, with this difference that it had spreading horns; the sight of this strange creature astonished the Gentleman, but after a little time recovered himself, and became more resolute, thinking it could do him no harm, as being so small in stature, so he continued on his journey in a very slow pace; but this creature followed him near a mile, until he came to a place called Thomastown pool, and then beheld this seeming heterogenous animal entera cave at the side of a road, to his no great sorrow; then he rode on until he got home, but did not rest satisfied, as he could scarcely describe this being: The night following he and some more of the towns gentlemen came to the same place where the animal grounded, and there they got three of the same kind before described, which they brought to town, two of which proved to be she ones. The undernamed do certify the contents of the above to be true. John Dea Esq; Denis Ryan, Esq; Mr. John Carrol, Mr. Michael Fitzmaurice, Mr. John Eland. The LADY's form of prayer for a HUSBAND. FROM a profane libertine, from one affectedly pious, from a profuse almoner, from an uncharitable wretch, from an injudicious zealot — deliver me From one of a starched gravity, or of a ridiculous levity, from an ambitious Statesman, from a restless projector, from one that loves any thing besides me, but what is very just and honorable, ---- deliver me. From a modern wit, from a base cow-ard, and a rash fool — deliver me. From a Venus darling, from a Bacchus proselyte, from a domestic animal, from all masculine plagues, not yet recounted, — Deliver me. But give me one whose love has more of Judgement than passion, who is master of himself, or at least an indefatigable Scholar in such a study; who has an equal flame, a paralel inclination, a temper and soul so like mine, that, as two tallies, we may appear more perfect by union. Give me one of as Genteel an Education, as a little expence of time will permit, with an indifferent Fortune, rather independant of the servile state of places and yet one whose retirement is not so much as into himself, one (if possible) above flattery and affronts, and yet is careful in preventing Injury, as able to repair it, one, the beauty of whose mind exceeds that of his face. Give me one that has learned to live much in a little time, one that is no great familiar in the converse of the World, nor no little one with himself, one (if two such happinesses may be granted at one time to our sex) who with these uncommon endowments of the mind, may naturally have a sweet mild, easy disposition, at least one, who, by practice, and frequent habit, has made himself so before he is made mine, but as the master-perfection and chiefest draught, let him be truly virtuous and pious, that is to say, let me be truly happy in my choice. ANECDOTE of the COUNT D'ESTAING. THE Count D'Estaing having been informed that there was a man, by trade a sadler, who took upon him the name and arms of D'Estaing, the Count sent for him, and asked him how he dared to usurp his name and arms. the man answered, That he did not usurp them, but that he derived his right to them from his father, The Count then told him haughtily, that if he did not desist from using them, he would make him repent it. The sadler consulted a Lawyer upon his affair, who advised him not to use the name or arms, unless he could prove his right to them. To which the sadler answered, That he was brought up at the Foundling-hospital, and that the directors of that charity told him when he was sent from hence, that the name and arms of D'Estaing belonged to him. Accordingly, the Lawyer went with him to that hospital, and, upon application to the principal director, he produced to them a letter in the hand-writing of the late Mr. D'Estaing, Declaring that the person in question was his son, by a girl of mean birth, whom he had privately married, which occasioned his sending the child to the Foundling-hospital. Some time after he found means to satisfy the girl, by giving her a sum of money, and married a lady of rank and fortune, by whom he had the present Count D'Estaing. The Lawer finding that the latter was an illegitimate child, being the issue of the second marriage, when the first was not set aside, told the sadler to continue the name and arms of D'Estaing, as he had done before. The Count D'Estaing thereupon caused the man to be cited before the Chatelet, were both parties being heard, and an authentic copy

of the above letter produced, that court decided in favour of the sadler. ––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– The following ANECDOTE respecting Richard Plantaganet, natural Son to King Richard 3d. was found among the paper's of a Clergyman lately deceased, and by an indorsement on the Back of the paper, it is said to be part of a letter from Thomas Pret, LLD to William Warrin, LLD. IN the year 1720 (I have forgot the particular day; only remember it was about Michaelmas) I waited on the Lord Heneage Earl of Winchelsea, at East-well House, and found him sitting with the register-Book of the parish of Eastwell lying open before him. He told me that he had been looking there to see who of his own family were mentioned in it. "But (says he) I have a curiosity here to shew you;" and then shewed me in (I immediately transcribed it into my Almanack) Richard Plantagenet was burried the 22d day of December, Anno ut Supra Ex registro de Eastwell, sub Anno 1550.—This is all the Register mentions of him; so that we cannot say whether he was burried in the Church or Church-Yard, nor is there now any other memorial of him, except the Tradition in the family, and some little marks of the place where his house stood. The story my Lord told me, was thus. When Sir Thomas Moyle built that house (that is, east-well Place, he observed his chief Bricklayer, whenever he left off work, retired with a book. Sir Thomas had a curiosity to know what book the man read; but was some time before he could discover it, he still putting the book up, if any one came towards him. However the Knight coming into his room while he lay asleep, took up a Book that lay by him, and found it to be latin. Hereupon he examined him, and finding he pretty well understood that Language, he enquired how he came by his learning? Hereupon the man told him, as he had been a good Master to him, he would venture to trust him with a secret he had never before revealed to any one. He then informed him, that he was boarded with a Latin school-master, without knowing who his parents were, 'till he was fifteen or sixteen years old; only a gentleman (who took occasion to acquaint him he was no relation to him) came once a quarter and paid for his board, and took care to see that he wanted nothing. And one day this gentleman took him, and carried him to a fine house, where he passed through several stately rooms, in one of which he left him, bidding him stay there. Then a man finely dressed, with a star and garter, came to him, asked him some questions, talked kindly to him, and gave him some Money. Then the fore-mentioned gentleman returned, and conducted him back to his school. Some time after, the same gentleman came to him again, with a horse and proper accoutrements, and told him he must take a journey with him into the country. They went into Leicestershire, and came to Bosworth Field, and he was carried to King Richard the third's tent. The King embraced him, and told him he was his son. "But, Child, (says he) to-morrow I must fight for my Crown; and assure yourself, if I lose that, I will lose my life too; but I hope to preserve both. Do you stand in such a place, (directing him to a particular place,) where you may see the Battle, out of danger: and when I have gained the victory, come to me; I will then own you to be mine, and take care of you. But, if I should be so unfortunate as to lose the battle, then shift as well as you can, and take care to let no body know that I am your Father, for no mercy will be shewn to any one so nearly related to me." Then the King gave him a purse of gold, and dismissed him. He followed the king's directions; and when he saw the battle was lost, and the king killed, he hasted to London, sold his horse, and fine Cloaths, and, the better to conceal himself from all suspicion of being son to a King, and that he might have means to live by his honest labour, he put himself apprentice to a bricklayer. But having a competent skill in the Latin tongue, he was unwilling to lose it; and having an inclination also to reading, and no delight in the conversation of those he was obliged to work with, he generally spent all the time he had to spare in reading by himself. Sir Thomas said, "You are now old, and almost past your labour; I will give you the running of my kitchen as long as you live." He answered, "Sir, you have a numerous family; I have been used to live retired; give me leave to build a house for myself, of one room, in such a field; and there, with your good leave, I will live and die: and if you have any work that I can do for you, I shall be ready to serve you." Sir Thomas granted his request; he built his house, and there continued to his death. ––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– Extract of a Letter from John Abbot Esq; His Britanic Majesty's Consul at Alleppo, to Mr. Latouche Resident at Bussora, dated 14 May 1781, and received the 9th June following. THIS by way of Bagdat is to inform you, that John Sullivan Esq; was at Constantinople, and about to set out the 28th April by Way of Dierbechier and Pagdat. We received yesterday evening the agreeable news of Admiral Rodney's having taken the Dutch Islands of St. Eustatia and St. Martin on the 3d. February, and 200 Ships of the enemy's there, a sixty Gun and a thirty eight gun Man of War with inmense Property, altogether valued at 3 Millions Sterling. It is imagined a general peace will soon take Place, the Emperor of Germany and Empress of Russia are mediators. Commodore Johnstone failed from Portsmouth the 13th March with 13 Indiamen outward bound under his Convoy and the Grand Fleet of about 30 Ships of the line commanded by Admiral Darby with succours for Gibraltar failed the same day so we may soon hear of an engagement with the Spanish Fleet near that Fortress. ––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– CALCUTTA. Extract of a letter from Benaras – dated the 17th of august YESTERDAY the Governor General of this Presidency thought proper for certain politic reason, to send Capt. Staulker with 50 Sepoys to surround Rajah Cheyt Sing' Palace in order to secure his persen. A few hours after two Compnies of sepoys were ordered to reinforce Staulker, but about 12 o Clock a large body of the Rajas Troops having before heard of their Master being under an Arrest and in a state of Confinement arrived from the opposite side of the River entered the Palace rescued Chyte sing and put our Sepoys to the Sword.----three brave European Officers viz. Staulker Scott and Symes and the valuable flowers of Britaia, and equally dear to their parents have thus been untimely slaughtered by those undisciplined rable 71 Sepoys were killed and 80 were wounded. These brave Fellows hardy Veterans who had stormed the Fort of Gualier, and carried it sword in hand were thus sacrificed for want of Amunition to defend themselves In their unfortunate situation resistance was to little purpose and they fell an easy prey to their too Savage Enemies. It is supposed the Rajah is gone to his Fort called Beech-nagur and the whole Country is in such a State of Anarchy and Confusion that all commercial intercourse up or down the Ganges is stoped.-----how this unlucky Business will end God best he knows. ––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– INTELLIGENCE EXTRAORDINARY. MANY of the present favorites having never been heard of

before—particularly a certain private SECRETARY ADIE CAMP and INTERPRETER. We have that a description of their persons lives, characters and behaviour is now compiling, and will be speedily published. If it gives RATIONAL reasons for these OUT OF THE WAY appointments, in preference to Company's old and meritorious Servants, it will be an INVALUABLE BOOK. They are all three lately arrived from the Cape—and are very well Confounded fals. Is it not therefore humane and generous in their patron to relieve their necessity especially in this time of scarcity, and as he himself bears no part of the expence. Is it not also an unquestionable proof of the goodness of this admin's heart that since he CHANGED SIDES he has filled the most lucrative Offices and contracts with his relations and all grasping dependants. It is currently reported that a certain Great Man is in the (ILL) of Charley Bullock, Colonel Bastion, and the STIFF-NECKED JACOBITE.—What have the Public then not to expect from a person of his ESTABLISHED Character whilst he remains in the hands of such a VIRTUOUS TRIUMVIRATE! seriously speaking can there be a more evident sign of the weakness of the head, than when the inferior Members have an entire Dominion over it. On Tuesday last James Grant Esq; set out on an Embassy to the Nezam's Court.—MORE MISCHIEF BREWING. We are informed, that the much talked of knot, that was to be knit up between a certain Amorous Padrie, and an Armenian Lady, is broke off, Various are the causes assigned, for this Lamentable disappointment. Some affirm, that the Son of one of the Parties, had possitively declared that if such a union had taken place, that he would on the instant, Exchange the CASSOCK for SCARLET; and follow the profession of Mars. But the Connisieurs who dive deeper into matters of this kind, have informed us, that a Country-man of the Great Mogul's, has forbid the Bands, on a plea of a Prior right having declared the Lady to be his sole property, and all belonging to her, O R D E R S. By the Gov. Gen. and Council. TO the Commanding Officer in Old Fort William. To be sent immediately. on board the Ship Rochford, Capt. Todd. Four Serjeants, and six privates to take their passage to Europe, their time being expered in the Hon'ble Company's Service agreeable to their Contract. Continued from our 29 Number. Le Massys husband mourns her fate in vain Her lean cannot eradicate her stain He knows her false, but finds he can't detest, He see her fair and hugs her to his breast Then stung by recollection backward starts And all the anguish of his soul imparts. Now fondly gages, now averts her eyes Beholds with rapture but condemns with sighs Now love and indignation rage by turns Now pitty melts him and new anger burns. Content can he who thought her charms his own Embrace what now is to another known Lovers there are man it well can bear But ask a husband in possession share Mad with corroding thoughts which never cease, He seeks the base destroyer of his peace And by false notions of false honour led Thinks to revenge his violated Bed, But while no prudence can his grief assuage He falls a victim to unguarded rage The rosy flush of life forsakes his face, And parent earth receives her last embrace: Thus the black villain glories in his deeds, And void of fear from crime, to crime proceeds Destroys the honour of the thoughtless Wife And takes away the injured husband life. Ye Dead! oh!—Who mourn a name abuse, And with one crime another will excuse Learn to respect your Country's fearful laws Nor draw your sword but in a proper cause Ye may be skill'd by supperior might A boor kill but cannot conquer right Immortal be the laws of heaven remain Which bid you from a fellows blood abstain: Justice o'er all our Hero's actions pass'd Securely sleeps but now awakes at last Justice incumber'd insults will indure Her punishments are always slow but sure She shakes the stragett Bow which fancy'd deal Her hands are Adament, her feet are lead Accus'd of Murder for his crime in chains A dreadful in: objective view remains A Court intent—he laws in dread array A solemn trace in the face of day, An awfull sentance—and the scene to close A shameful end of all her mortal woe: Who late he thou in a joyous light and gay He finds all gloomy darkness all dismay Himself he deem'd Inacculaty white But finds his form as dark as pitchy night Now thoughts on thoughts, in crouds o'erwhelm, his brain He seek perdition to escape from pain Strikes at the root of life; resigns his breath In all the horrors of untimely death Precipitately sighs and fears his fate And shuts out mercy from the ob y gates A momentary punishment he flies And aggravates his crimes before he dies From his immortal soul to endless chains And dwells a sad eternity in pains. AMICO. Advertisement Extraordinary. WANTED immediately a Gentleman who possesses such persuasive abilities as can make the ***** of ****** *** believe that they are rich when poor, that their servants are free when in fetters, and most happy when most miserable that the NEW system adopted for the disposal of the OPIUM Investment is not a Job, that the Doceur of SIXTY ONE THOUSAND RUPEES lately divided between two ORTHODOX DIVINES was founded on principles of justice; that the appointment of a STAFF to the USHER; during the absence of the MASTER, was indispensably necessary; and a POPULAR measure particularly as the selection was not made out of either the Civil or military Line, that the dignity of Government was not degraded by a competition with an honest truth speaking printer now in jail, and that in the absence of the MASTER nothing is missed except his abilities.—In short, he must be capable of vanishing over self evident facts, and of proving by rule of three inverse, that two are more than five Kould he happen to have any conscience, he must leave it at home, as there will be no Occasion for it. Any person so qualified, is desired to apply forthwith at the sign of the WINDMILL with a WEATHER-COCK a top where he shall meet with great encouragement Besides a handsome gratuity from the fund appropriated to secret services he shall be rewarded with a COMMISSION on the REVENUES after the example of that DULL and PLODDING servant MOUNSI CALCULATOR and six or seven FAVORITES. N. B. He must be a person of great fancy and imagination. W A N T E D. BY a Gentleman now in Calcutta two very handsome AFRICAN LADIES of the true sable Hue, (by the Vulgar) commonly called Coffriesses. They must not be younger than fourteen years. Nor Older than twenty, each or twenty five. They must be well grown Girls of the Age, Strait Limbed, and strait Eyed. And have a ration Lure of all the faculties. The better if a little squiemish. But beware of spot or blemish. They will be joined in the Holy bands of Wedlock to two Gentlemen of their own Colour, Cast, and Country. A dower is not expected with them; Nor will there be any Jointure settled on them. As the Master of those African Gentlemen would not wish to have them disappointed, he hopes no Ladies will apply, but those who are really, and truly spinsters; for it would be a very disagreeable circumstance to have their passions wound up to the highest pitch of wild desire, and then to have the Brides forbidden in right of a prior claim—No matter whether by a Mogul from the East; or a Hottentot from the West;—For in either circumstance it would be equally istressing! N. B, Any Person that has got such Ladies to dispose of; let them apply to the Clerk of the Printing Office; & they will be treated with: Arrivals] 24th August; Hon'ble Company's Ketch Nancy Capt: Hafferman from Madras. 26th Snow Grampus James Dickson from Bencoolin.

[COLUMN 1] Continued from our Last. PART THE SECOND. CHAP. I. On the Necessity of this Publication, in defence of Female Virtue. BUT though the Mode of Female Education, and the Manners, now absurdly in Fashion, have been found such fruitful Parents of Irreligion, vice and Impudence.—yet their operation on the conduct of our Women is weak—scarce worth mentioning, when put in Competition with the Effects, that are produced by the abominable custom of employing Men—Midwives. The former—breaking Ground at a distance—and by regular Approaches winding it's Way—batters, and undermines the defences—but the latter—Scaling the Walls at once, storms by a Coup de Main and the Citadel, already in the hand of the Enemy, is left entirely at his DISCRETION. Really the Custom of employing Men Midwives, unnecessarily—is so flagrantly in Breach of Modesty, and delicacy*—appears—so Abandoned on it's very first view—that if it were not for the Ease, and EFFRONTERY, with which we see it daily practised by so many Women—and the astonishing indifference with which we find it permitted by their Husbands—one would absolutely, think it as needless to use any Argument to expose it, as to write a Treatise to prove that Women who commit Adultery, are not chaste! The only Way we can charitably account for the prevailing Custom is, by concluding that our Women are Ignorant how much Modesty and Decency are violated during the attendance of Men—and that they are deceived by an Idea that Men are safest. In Justice to their Husbands, too, we must suppose their seeming Indifference, proceeds from the same Causes. After having once submitted to the shameful Violations, Women submit to them again, because the Opinion of the peculiar Safety of Men, still continues—and the Breach in Modesty having been already made, they feel the less shame from the Idea of a Repetition. It is intended by the following Pages, therefore, to convince modest Women, that except in very singular Cases, Men are not only unnecessary, but really not so safe as experienced Women—and that the Practice is repugnant to every Idea of Modesty, Delicacy, and Decency. Indulging strange Men in such Familiarities, infallibly blunt those fine Feelings, which are a strong Guard to Virtue. To those who are prejudiced, or have no Sense of what is due to female Modesty—I say nothing. There are People on whom Arguments are thrown away, I write not to the Winds. * It has become so much the Fashion to make Use of the Word Delicacy, when Modesty is intended to be expressed by it—that Habit reconciles many, to the understanding Delicacy in that Sense, which it could by no means otherwise express. Modesty, and Delicacy, mean two very different Things. To be immodest, is infinitely more culpable, than to be indelicate. Indelicacy, is much too genteel a Word—and it does not convey the proper Meaning. [COLUMN 2] A Woman may be immodest, without being indelicate—and she may be indelicate, without being immodest. How, then, can Delicacy, be with Propriety substituted for Modesty?—It would be indelicate for a Woman to come down to Breakfast, with her Night Cap, and Bed-Gown on—but not immodest. It would be indelicate for a Woman to talk of the Operations of Physic, in gross Terms, before Company.—but not immodest. It would be indelicate for a Woman to go to a certain House in a Garden, before Men——but not immodest. On the other hand, it would be immodest for a Woman to admit, or take, indecent personal Liberties——but not Indelicate. A Woman is immodest, when she goes to Bed to a Man, who is not her Husband—but not indelicate. There are Acts, which are at the same Time, both Indelicate and immodest. The Liberties taken by a Man-Midwife, prior to Labour—are immodest. But not indelicate——but during Labour—both Modesty, and Delicacy, are at once violated.—Since the World has been so strangely led by Fashion, to misapply Delicacy, for Modesty—it was necessary I should explain the different Senses in which I shall always use these Words.
