T H E By GEORGE CAD WALLADER, Gent. SATURDAY, DECEMBER 30, 1749. [ No. 108. | N Politics as well as Phyftc, He, who having a crazy Conftitution to manage, only prefcribes for the Sake of Form, or the Sake of his Fee, is a Quack, by whatfoever Name or Title diftinguifhed ; and as well for amufmg as robbing his Patient, deferves equally to be difgraced and punifhed. Now, what with bad Habits, and worfe Practice, the Condition of tbis Country is become defperate e- nough to ftand in need of an / Efculapius : And yet, for aught that appears bv their Cures, the higheft: Character of our political College will fcarce out meafure that of Dr. Rock. Thefe are Expreffions that, I know, will fhock the delicate Ears of Thofe who arrogantly call them felves The G ; and who, afting with a Licen- tioufnefs beyond Example in every m 1 Difpo.- fition, complain of the Licentioufnefs of the Times. But I am very little difpofed to do Homage to a Poft becaufe of the Trophies hung upon it ; and lefs to fear the Effe& s which fuch an uncourtly Stub- bornnefs may bring upon me. On the contrary, having no End to ferve but what is founded on the Good qf the Community, nor any private Attachments inconftftent with the Public Service ; having as much Loyalty or Regard for the Laws, as the moft profeffing Courtier ; aim- ing to reform, not todifturb ; and ambitious to have the prefent happy Eftablifhment rendered perpetual, by being grafted on theHappinefs of the People ; I know of no Obligation I lie under, to fupprefs a li- beral Sentiment ; or to defeat my own PurpcFe, ( which is to make Men a « £ t like Men) by doing the Office of a Licencer of the Prefs, in depriving thofe Sentiments of their Virility. If, therefore, by placing myfelf on the higheft Ground in England, I could make my Voice be heard from the remoteft Cavern in the North, to the Britijb Channel, and 1 had any Thing to commu nicate that was of Confequence to the Britijh Na- tion, I would communicate it as freely and fully, as if I had a Commiffion to do fo from Heaven. We are come to the Clofe of another Year, in the • fame crippled and enfeebled State that we were in, at the Clofe of the Laft : And the Refloratives talked of, are, in their own Nature, fo tame and ineffici- ent ; require fuch a Length of Time for their Ope- ration ; and, for that Reafon, are liable to fo many linifter Accidents, that, in my humble Opinion, they are Prefcriptions merely for Form's Sake, and are not cakulated for real and effential Service. Tbat the Land ought to have Reft, after fo many Years of Preflure, muft be admitted by thofe who know the true State of it : But then that Reft fhould be natural and real, not ideal, or the Effeft of In- toxication. While the Charge of Government continues on its prefent exorbitant Footing, exorbitant Taxes will be neceffary for its Support: And it may. be eafily proved, that Abatements on one Hand, muft be re- placed by Managements, olfome Kind, on the other. On this Head, therefore, I cannot help declaring, tbat the CONSIDERER upon a Reduction of the Land Tax, appears abundantly too ccroplaifant, in building his whole Syftem on the prefent Plan of Expeuce : What is, has been too long connived at: What ought to le, too long negledbed : And, however chimerical fuch Severity may be reprefented, nothing but the fe- vereft Regimen Can eradicate the inveterate Ma- lady that confumes us. There is not a Clafs of Men in this whole Com- munity ( except fuch as, in the M. 1 Land of Gojhen, live on the Fat of the Land) who is not over- taxed: And the fame Load of Oppreffions which bears fo hard on Individuals, does the fame on our Manufactures, Navigation, and Commerce; and will, in the End, as infallibly ruin the one, as the other: For as to the prefent Over- flow of Trade, which has been fo loudly boafted of, we are not to efteem it a regular Current, arifmg from a natural Sourfe, but a fudden, tranfient Gurge, partly the Refult of the Stagnation occafioned by the War, and partly of the ill Condition of our Rivals. The Land, therefore, ought not only to have Reft, but our Manufactures and Commerce Ihould be relieved by an Abatement of fuch Taxes, as are moft grievous to the Poor, and moft burdenfome to Trade : And as in Policy this ought to be done for the Sake of the Nation in general ; fo in Equity, the public Creditors, who are to have fo much of their annual Income pared away by the Redu& ion of Intereft, have a Right to infift on the fame Thing: For in Proportion as they are ftraitened on one Hand, they ought to be confidered on the other. As I never was one of Thofe, who think the pre- fent Age under no Obligation to make a due Pro- vifion for the Security and Welfare of the next ; I may venture to fay, after the Parliament of Paris, in that vigorous Remonftrance of theirs to their So- vereign, which fo far furpaffes all the Efforts that the Spirit of Patriotifm has, of late Years, been able to produce among us, That our national Circumftances require immediate Relief on one Hand, and Regulation on the otber. No Security can be given, Tbat theSa- vingpropofed to be made by the Redu£ tion of Inter- eft, will or can be applied to the Diminution of our Debts. The Public has already been fo egregioufly deceived on a Plan of the like Kind, that they de- ferve to be beggar'd, if ever they rely on m— i Faith again : Nor is this all : For we are no longer in a Condition to direct the Mealures and Motions of Europe : And if the P- w- rs who have now the Lead, fhoukl dire£ t them againft us, public Neceffities will defolve public Obligations, and the Bubble will again burft before our Eyes. Thus if fuch a Saving could really be made, as is" given out, and with ever fo upright an Intention, there is no Extravagance in the moll: romantic Brain that deferves lefs to be relied on. The gradual Difcharge of the public Debt is in- deed a moft defirable Thing . But whoever confiders how great a Proportion of it is due to Foreigners, and compares the Sum- Total of the current Cafh of the Kingdom with that Proportion, will fee Caufe to conclude, That there is no rational Way of dis- charging it, but by the growing Profits of our Com- merce ; which leads us back to the Neceffity infifted on above, of towering our Taxes,- and making a Re- duction of the Charge of Government, the Bafis of our national CEconomy. But even thefe Reductions are not the only In- gredients to be made Ufe of in the Regimen we ought to contend for. Unlefs we can obtain • i. free and equal Reprefentative *. Unlefs every Man's Quota of Taxes is proportioned to his Property : Uniefs the Cominerce, Colonies, and naval Strength of Eng- land become the feremofi Conftderations of the Ca- binet : Unlefs a rational Militia by Rotation is efta- [ Pace TWO- PENCE. J blifhed in Lieu of an Army of Mercenaries : Ur. Iefs the Laws and Magiftrates are re- invefted with Au- thority : Unlefs the Land- Marks of Right and Wrong are re- eftablifhed : Unlefs Rewards and Punifhments are diftributed with an impartial Hand ; Unlefs Prin- ciple and Confcience are once again brought into Fa- fliion: Unlefs a due Value is fet on Fame and Glory : Unlefs the Hearts of Sovereign and Subjects are united by Reverence on one Hand, and Affection on the other : And unlefs the Dignity and Majefty of Go- vernment is in full reftored, we fhall hav- a. Reafon to complain of QUACKERY always ; we ( hall recover the Health, Strength, and Vigour of our antieat Conftitution never. And now, to apply all that is here faid to the com- mon Senfe of the Community : If any or all of thefe Points are worth the Perfuit of Englijhmen, and yet are not perfued by the Perfons to whom fuch Mat- ters more immediately belong, it is in our own Power to perfue them, perhaps effe£ tually, without any Offence lo the Laws, or any Irreverence to our Superiors. The Way to the Throne is as open to the People of England, as to the People of France : The Latter have remonftrated : And WE may remonftrate with as much Caufe, and more AfTurance of Succefs. If a Company of poor French Players could affe£ t the Pajfions of the People, furely ' fuch Conftdera- tions as thefe ought to affect their Reafon : And if we thought it worth our while to intcreft Heaven and Earth in the obtaining a fingle Vote in P 1, . when a hundred would not have turned the Scale, furely fuch Confiderations as thefe, which comprife all that P ts can do for our Sakes, ought not to die of Negleft. We have, teen, that, without any formal Applica- tion from tbe People, the Licence granted to thofe Players, though an ASt of State, grounded upon an Alt of Parliament, has been fufpended ; which ar- gues, that the Senfe of the Public is ftill a Matter of fome Importance ; and if fo, to bring it into Ope- ration, we need only to make it known. To fay all in a Word: The Nation is at prefent in the miferable State of the Cripple, by the Side of tbe Pool of Bethfaida : The Angel has troubled the Water ; and we are too helpiefs to take the Benefit of it. FOREIGN AFFAIRS. ITALY. Lisbon, Dec. 4. By the Mafter of a Spanifli Ship wh'ch arrived Ytfterday at this Port we learn, that two of the Merchantmen which failed the 15th of laft Month for Rio de Janeiro, being feparated from the reft of the FieeC by a violent Storm, were attacked on their Voyage by three Barbary Corfairs, but that after an obftinate Engage- ment of feven Hours, they funk one of the Pirates, and obliged theotji'. r two to fheer oft". Naples, Dec. 9. The Queen and the new l~<> rn Princefs are as well as can be expciled, and the Day before Yeiter- day Cardinal Spine' Archbtfhop, baptized the young Princeh by the Name of Marie- Francoife- Antoinette- Xaviere- Francoife de Paul Serapliine. Several Perfons have lately been taken up here for talking too freely of the Situation of the Affairs of Italy. The Corfairs of Barbary not having appeared much cf late, the Men of War, ar. d other armed Veflels, which were fent to cruize againft them, are returned into this Port. Leghorn,' Dec. iz. The Subftance of the laft Letters from Algiers, are as follows. ' Some of oar Corfairs are ftill at Sea, bat are expedted ' home very foon : Thofe that are returned have brought * in but very few, and thofe infignificant Prizes. The ' Fortifications of this Place are daily improved, and aug- ' mented with new Works; but this is only by Way of ' Precaution to fecure us againil any Infults. We cannot * perfuade ourfelv. es that any Power in Europe would at- ' tempt to attack this City, as it would require a very ' powerful Army to befxege it by Land, which is not very * practicable; and no Veffel can approach the Harbour ' without running a Risk of being funk by the Cannon ' of the Fortrefies ; befides which, the Regency feems to ' be well affured of Afiiftance from the Ottoman Porte. Parma, Dec. 12. It is generally believed here, that the Ifland of Corfica will foon be under the Dominion of the Duke our Sovereign ; and it is pretended that the Mini- fters of his Catholic Majefty, aud thofe of the Republic of Genoa, are adtually employed in drawing up a Conven- tion concerning the Celjion of that Kingdom. SWEDEN. Stockholm, Dec. 16. They write from Ule2, in La- ponia, that the Winter had been fo fevere there ever fince the Beginning of Odtober, that the Inhabitants could fcarcely ftir out of tbeir Houles; but that towards the Middle of November the Weather grew io mild, that not only the Snow difappeared,' bul that the Land was more fit for Tillage than it ufually was in milder Climates in the Spring ; which the Inhabitants looked upon as an " Omen of a very fevere Winter.

The Sieur Wachtler, who had been taken here into Arreft, at the Requifition of the Duke of Saxe Gotha, for having embezzled a pretty large Sum of Money, in colledling Part of the Cuftoms of that Prince, wa< delivered over a few Days ago to an Efcort of two Sergeants and two private Men, who had been fer. t from Goiha to condudt the Prifoner thither. Hamburgh, Dec. 26. The Report of one of the Sons of the King of Poland, Ele& or of Saxony, being to be nominated a Coadjutor of Coiogn, begins to be renewed ; and it is allured, that this is the Motive of the Journey which the King of Poland has determined to take very loon into Weftphalia They write from Hanover, that the Apartments at Herenhaui'en are fitting up for the Re- ception of his Britannick Majefty, who is expedted there about the Middle of May. According to the laft Advices from Conftantinople, the Plague rages there with great Violence, and iikewile in feveral other Provinces of the Dominions of the Grand Signior.

The Government of Efclavonia has been given to General Count de Guifruggi, and that of Tirol to General Guadagni. The Court having received Advice, that the King of Portugal intends to name a Minifter to refide here in the room of M. Caravalho, it is expedted a Perfon of Character will foon be named by their Im- perial Majefties to refide at the Court of Portugal; and it is generally thought that General Hagenbach will be appointed for that Employment. The Prince of Tour Taxis, the Emperor's Principal Commiffary to the Diet of the Empire, fet out this Morning for Rati J) on. FRANCE. Paris J- 1 ft- main, Jan. 2. The Marquis de St. Germain, his Sardinian Majefty's AmbafTador in Ordinary at our Court, had his Audience of his Moft Chriilian Majefty on Tuefday laft ; at which Time he acquainted his Majefty with the Marriage of the Duke of Savoy with the Princefs Maria Antonietta of Spain. The joyful News of . her Royaii Highnefs the Drfuphi- nefc's Pregnancy was laft Week made public to the Court; and that, as we are credibly informed, was the principal Rcafon why the intended Journey to Choify was poftpon'd. The Marquis de CQvan uvias de Pegna Bianca, one of his Majefty's Lieutenant Generals, died at Veifailles on the 24th of December laft, in the 69th Year of his Age. On Sunday laft a young Woman who came into St. Stephen's Church, during the Time of Divine Service, was fo confufed and furprized at every thing ( he faw, that Ihe could not refrain from asking the firft Perfon that fhe met with, a great many Queftions; which the Party ap- plied to, being unable to refolve, he condudted her to the Vicar, who, after a pretty clofe Examination, thought pro- per to carry her before the Lieutenant of the Police, who examined her over again j but all they could get out of her was to the following Effedt; namely, that finding the Door where ( he lodged open in the Evening, fhe went out, and ftrolled about theTown all Night, without know- ing where ihe was; that Ihe came accidentally into tbe great Houfe where they found her, that nothing was to be feen out of the Window * lie re ihe lodged, but the Tops of fome Trees; that fhe lived with a Gentleman, who Ihe called her Papa, and that Ihe had a Sifter; that her before- mentioned Papa had a great Number of Swords and Watches in his Lodgings; that it was cuftomary for him to go out as foon as it was dark, and not to return till early in the Morning. Upon this impertedt Declaration, it is generally con- jedtured, that her Papa, as fhe call- him, is fome High- wayman, tha' had maintained tbis Girl from her Infancy without giving her any farther Education or Inftrudtion, than what might be ,,- f Service to promote his wicked Perpcfes ; for wi n Reafon hey have ordered the Girl to be kept in Ciiftody at the Convent of St. Winifred, till this odd Adventure can be more fatisfadtorily explained. From the LONDON GAZETTE. At a Court Martial held on board his Majefty's Yacht the Charlotte, at Deptfofd, on the nth, 12th, 13th, 14th, 15th, 16th, 18th, igth and 20th Days of Decem- ber, 1749 ; PRESENT, William Rowley, Efq; Rear Admiral of Great Britain, and Admiral of the White Squadron of his Majefty's Fieet, President; Sir Edward Hawke, Vice- Admiral of the Blue, The Hon. John Forbes, Efq; Rear- Admiral of the White, Capt. Merrick de L'Angle, Capt. Thomas Sturton, Capt. William Parry, Capt. Rich a. d Haddock, Capt. Matthew Buckle. The Court, purfuant to an Order from the Right Hon. lhe Lords Of the Admiralty to William Rowley, Efq; dated the ill Inftant, proceeded to enquire into the Con- duel: and Behaviour of Charles Knovvles, Efq; a Rear Admiral of his Majefty's Fleet, in and relating to an Ac- tion which happened on October the 1 ft, 1748, between a Britifh Squadron under his Command, and a Squadron of Spain ; and having heard the Witneffes, as well for the Crown as the Prifoner and alfo what the Prifoner had to fay in his Defence, and thoroughly confidered the fame, the Court do unanimoufly agree, That it has appeared that Mr. Knowles, by forming the Line to the Northward upon feeing the Enemy in the Morning, afled properly and like an Officer; but, while he was Handing for the Enemy, he might, by a different Difpofition of his Squa- dron, have begun the Attack with fix Ships, as early in the Day as four of them were engaged, and that therefore, by his r. eglefting to do fo, he gave the Enemy a manifeft Advantage; but in the Situation the Squadron was at the time the Tilbury returned the Enemy's Fire, the Rear Admiral feems to have adted properly in making the Sig- nal for Battle, and beginning the Engagement then as he did ; that it appears the Cornwall continued in clofe and fmart Adtion better than an Hour, and that Mr. Knowles remained on board her, with his Flag, after fhe was dif- abled from continuing the Adtion, though he might, upon her being difabled, have fhifted his Flag on board another Ship ; and the Court are unanimoufly of Opinion, that he ought to have done fo, in order to have conduced and diredted, during the whole Adtion, the Motions of the Squadron entrufted to his Care and Condudt; but as it appears that Mr. Knowles expreffed great Earneftnefs and Zeal to get into Adtion, and, while the Cornwall was en- gaged, fhewed great perfonal Courage, Therefore, the Court do unanimoufly think, that his not removing his Flag arofe from a Miftake, and not from Backwardnefs to bring his Perfon into Adtion ; and upon Confideration of Mr. Knowles's whole Condudt relating ro the Adtion, the Court doth unanimoufly agree, that he falls under Part of the 14th Article of the Articles of War, namely, the Word Negligence, and no other, and alfo under the 23d 1 Article. And the Court do therefore unanimoufly ad » judge, That he be reprimanded, for not biinging up tli « Squadron in clofer Order than he did, and not beginning the Attack with as great Force as he might have dons, and alfo for not fiiifting his Flag, upon theCornwall's be- ing difabled. And he is hereby reprimanded accord- ingly. Wm. Rcwley, 7bo. Sturton, C. Fearne, Edw. Hawke, Wm. Parry, Jud. Adv. John Forbes, Rich. Haddock, Mi. de V Angle, Matthc- wBuckle. LONDON.

Extract-, of a Letter from Alicant, Dec. 10. N. S. ' On the 4th Inftant arrived here, in a Boat belonging ' to the Cornelia Galley, a Dutch Ship, Capt.
