One Lloyd, an artful villain, and an old offender, was apprehended for endeavouring to rob the houfe of Mr. Martin of King'sfireet, Soho. His cultom was to learn the name and circumftances of the family; to watch the mafter out; and then to knock at the door to enquire for him.-To gain admittance, he used to call for pen and ink to write a direction, and while that was fetching, he used to rob the houfe. Similar to this was the robbery for which he was ap prehended; but the maid hearing a cupboard open, and fufpecting him, attempted to feize him; in the struggle he beat our two of her teeth, and was making off when he war ftopt by an oppofite neighbour, who, with proper affiftauce, fecured him. His Majefty, attended by the duke of Montague and lord Willoughby de Broke, went in ftate from St. James's to the Houfe of Peers, and after giving the Royal Affent to the Bills that were in readiness, put an end to the Seffions by the following moft gracious fpeech. "My Lords and Gentlemen, T HE advanced feafon of the year requires fome remiffion from your long and laborious attention to the public fervice. The exigences of that fervice may oblige me to call you together again at an early period; and I perfuade myfelf, from my uniform experience of your affection to me, and your zeal for the public good, that you will chearfully fubmit to a temporary inconvenience, for the permanent advantage of your country. The confideration of the affairs of the East Indies will require to be refumed as early as poffible, and to be parfeed with a ferious and unremitting attention. I expected to have had the fatisfaction of acquainting you, before the end of the Sef fion, that the terms of pacification were definitively fettled; but the complicated ftate of the bufinefs in difcuffion has unavoidably protracted the negociation. I have, however, every reafon to believe, from the dif politions fhewn by the feveral powers con. cerned, that they are perfectly well inclined to fuch a conclufion as may fecure the blef fings of peace, fo much and fo equally to be defired by all parties. Gentlemen of the Houfe of Commons, I thank you for the fupplies you have fo liberally granted for the public fervice; for facilitating my arrangements towards a feparate eftablishment for the Prince of Wales; and for enabling me, without any new bur then on my people, to ditcharge the debt which remained on my civil liit. My My Lords and Gentlemen, I earnestly recommend to you an attention towards promoting among my people, in your feveral countries, that spirit of order, regularity, and industry, which is the true fource of revenue and power in this nation; and without which, all regulations for the improvement of the one, or the increase of the other, will have no effect." This afternoon the Court Martial, which was held at Chatham, for the trial of 12 of the ringleaders of the mutiny on board the Raifonable man of war, lord Harvey, commander, ended, when the charge being fully proved on feven of them, and partly proved on three more, the following fentence was paffed, viz.

William Knox and Thomas Wilfon, Acquitted. The crime with which they were charged, was, an attempt to unmore the fhip, then lying at Spithead, with intent to carry it into Portfmouth harbour to be paid off, rather than to Chatham, where the was ordered. Thursday 17. Came on the election of a Profeffor of Anatomy to the Royal Academy, vacant by the death of Dr. Hunter, when Mr Sheldon, of Great Queen ftreet, was chofen.

Saturday 26. Came on at the Old Bailey, the trial of William Wynne Ryland, for forging on the East India Company a bill for 210l. and uttering the fame knowing it to be forged. It appeared the original bill for which the prifoner was indicted, came, in the courfe of circulation, into Mr. Ryland's hands, who gave cash for it to a Mr. Goddard, and kept it a confiderable time, but at length discounted it at the Bank of Sir Cha. Afgill; and on the 4th of November following, be uttered a copy of that bill, knowing it to be forged, at the bank of Meffrs. Brenfon and Company. The forgery was compleated with fo much nicety, that it was almost impofiible to difcriminate between the real and the forged bill; but unhappily, for the prifoner, the Paper-maker, who made the paper on which the forged bill was drawn, wore to the making it fo late, that it could not have been carried to the East Indies and back again, from the time of making to the time of uttering it. He identified the paper to the fatisfaction of the jury, who brought the prifoner in Guilty of uttering, knowing it to be forged. Tuesday 29. In the Gazette of this day, Col.

In his feveral ftations as a magiftrate he was fagacious, affiduous, and impartial; in the due difcharge of every relative and focial duty he was eminently contpicuous.
