BERROW's Worcester Journal. [ Printed at his OFFICE, in Goose- Lane, near the Cross. ] Price Two- Pence. THURSDAY, June 30, 1757. No 2446 FRIDAY'S and SATURDAY'S POSTS. Arriv'd a MAIL from Holland. MADRID, May 24. OUR Court persists in the Resolution to take no Part in the War between the French and the English ; in Imitation of one ot the wisest Republicks in Eu- rope, she is only intent upon enjoying the Fruits of Peace, by keeping within the Bounds of an exact Neutrality. This just Medium, and the State of our Navy too, render her equally respectible to both Parties. We have actu- ally 111 Port and at Sea 44 Ships of the Line of Battle, 18 Frigates, and four Bomb Ketches. Elseneur, June 9 Four Swedish Gallies, with several Transports, were seen the 3d of this Month in the Bal- tick, steering towards Pomerania. We are since inform'd that they had Troops on board, which his Swedish Ma jesty is sending to the Army of the Empire, as his Con tingent for the Dutchy of that Name. The Masters of some Vessels arrived from the Sound, say, that there are actually fourteen Russian Men of War and Frigates cruis- ing before the Ports of Litau, Memel, and Konigsberg, to intercept Prussian Ships. Utrecht Gazette. From the Camp before Prague, June 4. The Thirty Thousand Austrians, who in the Night between the 27th and 28th alt. attempted to force their Way through our Army, were drawn up in Order of Battle a little after Sun set, and their Preparations were concealed by Favour of the Hills which covered them, and the Darkness of the Night They had persuaded themselves ( with what Rea- son we know not) that a large Body of Troops from the Army of Marshal Daun would attack Marshal Keith that Evening about Ten o'Clock, and that they should be able to drive our Troops away, and thereby open a Passage for all their Troops blocked up in Prague. They had distributed a great Quantity of Brandy among the Soldiers, and neglected nothing that could animate them. But our Batteries had more Power than all those Encouragements. The Austrians met with a warmer Reception than they had done in the Sally of the 24th, and our Grenadiers pursued them even to the Gates of the City. According to the unanimous Report of Deserters which have joined us since this last Sally, the Enemy lost upwards of 200o Men in Kill'd, Wounded, and Prisoners, and seemed so dishearten'd by their ill Success in their two Sallies, that there was no Likelihood of their attempting a third. Utrecht. June 15. Our News from Bohemia imports, that the King of Prussia has established new Batteries upon, the Right of the Moldau, to batter Prague with more Force, and hasten the Reduction of that Place, where all the People, even the Religious Orders, have taken Arms. His Prussian Majesty, ' tis said, has sent them a fresh Summons, declaring that, after the 12th, they must think of nothing but surrendering at Discretion. Ratisbon, June 4 The Magistrates of Nuremberg ha- ting given equivocal Answers to the Summons which Colonel Meyer sent them to embrace a Neutrality, he immediately march'd thither with two thousand Men, but had no sooner occupied the Suburbs than the Magistracy call'd a Grand Council, and the College of Burghers, to determine, Whether the City should accept the Neutrality, • » defend itself against the Prussians ; when it was resolv'd ( by a Majority of Voices) to remain neuter ; and, after the Assenbly broke up, they, enter'd into a NegociatiOn with Col. Meyer, but have not yet published the Result. Vienna, June 4. The Empress Queen has communi- cated to several Courts, with whom she is in Alliance, the Conditions which have been proposed to bring about a Neutrality in Favour of the Electarate of Hanover. According to the Overtures made on this Subject, the King of Great Britain, in his Quality of Elector, is not to be look'd upon as concern'd in the present War. His Troops, and those of the Princes with whom he is allied, are not to act against those of the Empress or her Allies, He is to engige also not to assist the King of Prussia either with Troops or Money. The Passage through the Part of his Electorate situate on the Left of the Aller, to be granted to her Imperial Majesty and her Allies, with Permission to establish Magazines, Hospitals, & c. and the Town of Hamlern be put, by Way of Security, either in the Possession of the Empress, or the Czarina and the King of Denmark, whom her imperial Majesty pro- poses as Guaranties of this Convention, Sec, Letter from the French Army, dated June 10. « « When the Hanoverians [ an advanced Party only of 1500] retir'd from Rittberg, they nail'd up six Pieces of Cannon, which they could not carry off. The Prince de Soubise was no sooner appris'd that this Post Was aban- don'd, than he sent thither a Detachment of Horse and Foot, by which Means the Communication with Pader - born is the better secured " Toulon, May 30. Here has been a strong Report, which has been confirmed by Letters from Paris, that the English have a Design of dispossessing us of the Island of Minorca ; to which End a formidable Armament is fit- ting out. HoweVer true this may be, all necessary Pre- cautions are taken to render such Attempt abortive, and to maintain the Empire, we have so honourably acquir'd, of the Mediterranean Sea. LONDON. { Thursday, June 23. k Yesterday being the Anniversay of his Majesty's Acces- sion to the Throne, who then entered into the 31st Year of his Reign, the Morning Was , ushered in with Ringing of Bells, at Noon the Guns were fired in the Park and at the Tower, and there was a great Court at Kensington to compliment his Majesty on the Occasion. We hear that the Right Hon. Lord Anson kissted his jesty's Hand at Kensington, on Tuesday, on being ap- pointed First Lord of the Admiralty. This Day were shipped for New- England, zo. ooolb. of Gunpowder, and 5000 Gun Flints. Also for Carolina 20 Cwt. of Wrought Iron, and divers Sorts of Merchandize to a great Value. This Day were enter'd at the Customhouse, no Quar- ters of Wheat from Dantzick, and 3^ 0 Quarters from Koningsberg. Letters by the Holland Mail advise, that the City of Prague is almost reduced to Ashes, and that a Pound of Bread sells there for Ten- pence, and a Pound of Horse- Flesh for Two pence. ' Tis said that near 30 Ships of War, from 10 to 40 Guns, will be very speedily appointed as Cruizers in the Channel and Sound, for the better Protection of our Commerce. Seven Companies of Marines are ordered round to Ply- mouth for Embarkation. A few Weeks ago we mention'd some Devastation made by the French on out Settlements and Trade in the River Gambia, which was soon after contradicted, and said to be void of Foundation; but by a West India Mail that arrived Yesterday, there are some AdVices that confirm our early Intelligence of the Success of the French on that Part of the African Coast. Three Privateers are taken among the Leeward Islands, by the Blandford and Saltash Men of War, and carried into Antigua. The St. Anthony, Costa, and the Virgin of Cadro, Valiant, both from Marseilles for Turky ; la Vierge de Grace, Latty, from Constantinople for Marseilles, are taken and carried into Malta by the Hawke, Wilson, a Letter of Marque. A French Polucca was drove ashore near Salonica, by the Lilly, Ross, Letter of Marqiie, from Dundee for Alexandria, out of which they took to the Value of 20,000 Dollars. On Monday last the Fox Privateer, Capt. Giffard, ar- rived in the Downs, and brought in two Dutch Ships laden with Provisions. The William and Elizabeth, Barry, for Whitby, is re- taken by the Tartar Privateer, and brought into Bristol. Last Friday a Sloop from st. Croix, laden with Rum and Cotton, was brought into Falmouth by the Blenheim Privateer. Last Sunday three Dutch Ships with Salt for France, were brought into Plymouth by the St. Olave Privateer. The same Day the Otter, Viper, and Alderney Sloops of War arrived there with the Trade from Wales, and the Fowey Man . of War with the Trade for Newfoundland, Capt. Annyan, Capt. Caruthers, Capt Jackson, and Capt. Gill, all of Liverpool, wera taken on the Wind- ward Coast of Guiney, by four French Men of War, who took out the Crews and Negroes, and burnt their Vessels. The St. Joseph and St. Nichola, Romano, from Galli- poly to London, is carried into Toulon. The Clare, Walsh, from Antigua to Dublin, is taken and carried into Guardaloupe. We hear; that when the Hawke, Wilson, had unloaded at Smyrna, she went on a Cruise for a Month, and has taken eight Prices. Days appointed for holding the following CIRCUITS. HOME CIRCUIT.

" On Monday last a Sailor meeting a Woman on the Point, which he suspecting to be the Person who had lately robb'd him of ten Johannes, he, with seVeral more of his Shipmates, took from her three Gold Rings, and some Gold ( by way of repaying himself) After that they stripp'd her naked, took her to the Water Side, where they duck'd her, keeping her to the Water some Time ; then they took her out, and laid her on the Beach for the Space of a Minute or two, and then repeated the same again, besides otherwise cruelly using her, forcing her ( naked as she was, without the least Rag on) to walk the greatest Part of the Way up the Street, being then about Twelve o'Clock at Noon. It since appears that this poor Woman, tho' so cruelly and inhumanly treated, is innocent of the Fact; and all possible Means are now using to discover the Persons who were guilty of the Barba- rity." SUNDAY'S and MONDAY'S POSTS. Arrived a MAIL from Holland. A BERLIN, June 16. ACCORDING to the latest Advices from the King's Army before Prague, which are dated the 11th, the Bombardment was continued with great Vigour, and the Desolation in the City increased daily by the Want of Provisions and Forage. Notwithstanding which, accord- ing to the same Advices the numerous Garrison had been very quiet for some Days, and not made any fresh At- tempts to escape ; while, on the other Side, the Army of Marshal Daun, instead of advancing towards the besieging Army, is daily retiring nearer Moravia. By a Letter dated the 7th from the Camp of the Duke of Bevern, near Neschartzitz, between Kuttenberg and Neuhoff, we have Advice, that that Prince march'd the 5th with his Army to dislodge a large Body of Hungarian Troops posted upon a Hill near the Chapel of St. John. The Enemy was not only obliged to quit that Post, but were also' driven from three very advantageous Hills near Kanck, and forced t6 abandon the Town of Kuttenberg. They had 150 Men kill'd or wounded, and we took 73 Prisoners; who Were sent next Day to the Grand Army. On our Side there was but one Hussar kill'd, and ten others, with two Dragoons, wounded. Among the Ene- my's Slain were a Captain of Horse and some other Of- ficers. The Duke of Bevern at the same Time seized on two Maga2ines of Provisions and Forage which the Au- strians had at Kuttenberg and Neuhoff. The Situation of that Prince's Army has obliged Marshal Daun to aban « don his advantageous Camp of Czaslaw, and to retire to Goltz Jenkau, and from thence to Haber. General Na- dasti is still behind Czaslau with his Corps and four Reg;, ments of Saxon Cavalry. But our Troops were prepar- ing to dislodge him ; and Colonel Putkammer, who had passed the Defile of Czirkowitz, had already caused an Alarm in the Camp. Munster, June ( 8. The French have come to Action with the Hanoverians, and the latter have been obliged to retire in Disorder over the Weser. We have not yet any exact Relation Of this Affair, but some private Letters wrote from the Neighbourhood of the Field of Battle contain what follows: The 13th, in the Evening, Colonel Fischer, with his Corps and some Detachments of Grenadiers. attack'd Bielefeld. He found there at first but little Resistance, but the Prussians in the Left Wing of the Duke of Cum- berland's Army threw in a Reinforcement, which made a valiant Defence. At Break of Day, this Left Wing, composed of Prussians, Hessians, and BrunsWickians, was attacked, defeated, and driven from Bielefeld, after a vigorous Resistance ; on whith the Right Wing, Consisting of Hanoverians, t00k to Flight. Immediately after the Action, the French seized on Bielefeld, and went to pitch their Tents on the Spot from whence the Allies had been chased'. We can say nothing with Certainty concerning the Loss of the two Parties. We only know that the Victors have taken ten Pieces of Cannon, besides several Baggage Waggons i and ' tis said they have lost nO Officer of Note i But that, on the Side of the vanquished Party, there are several Officers of Rank among the Slain, par- ticularly the Generals Einsiedel and Junckheim," On the 15th the French made themselves Master of Hervord, and pillaged the Town, because the Inhabitant had been so imprudent as to take up Arms and join the Troops of the allied Array which were thrown in to de- fend it. We reckon they will enter the Town of Minden to day : So that they are upon the Borders of the Weser and not far from the Capital of the Electorate of Hano- ver —-—< Amsterdam Gazette. Lipstadt, June The 13th Marshal d'Etrees sent a ; considerable Detachment of his Army towards that of the Duke of Cumberland, The same day that Prince quit led his Camp at Bruchweide, and marched beyond Biele- feld. A Corps which he had left in that Post, was attack'd there by the French, who forced them, made several Pri- soners, and took Part of their Baggage. The Attack having been extremely brisk, the French lost some Men. The Duke of Cumberland, on abandoning Bielefeld, filed off towards Harvord. Before he quitted his Camp at Bruckweide to draw near the Weser, he sent off his Baggage and Provisons but left at Bielefeld a Magazine of 9000 Rations of Forage, which could not be remov'd. Since the 15th the French have been in Motion towards the Weser in seVeral Columns, one of which directs its' March through the Bishoprick of Paderborn. Utrecht Gazette Dusseldorf, June 17. It is given out here, that Col. Fischer has enter'd the Electorate of Hanover, and laid several Villages under Contribution. Brussels, June 21. The Army which is assembling in Alsace is to be commanded by Marshal de Richelieu It will consist of 45 Battalions and 58 Squadrons, amounting in all to 40,000 Men — London Gazette. Konigsburg, June 6. The Head Quarters of the Rus sian Troops are at present near Frauenberg, in Courland, about twenty two Miles from Memel. Ratisbon. June to. All the Advices received at the Diet from the different Circles of the Empire unani mously agree, that the Electors, Princes, and States are employed in getting ready their Contingencies of Troops to march to the appointed Places of Rendezvous, and to effect all the features requisite on that subject, in Con formity to the Resolution taken by the Germanick Body, and which, by the Concurrence of its different Members, has required the Force of a Law. Marseilles, June I ' Tis the general Opinion here that the small Squadron of three Ships of the Line, and four Frigates, ordered to sail from Toulon, is destined lor Canada. Paris, June 13. For a Month past a contagious Dis- tember has reigned amongst the Poultry in this Capital and its Neighbourhood. M. Daubenton,. Keeper and Professor of the Cabinet of Natural History in the Roya Garden, having dissected some of the Birds that died, the Pullets which were in a Yard behind the Apartment Where the Operation Was performed, all suddenly died by the Communication of the pestiferous Corpustles which exhaled from the dissected little dead Birds.

Extract of a Letter from Carmarthen, dated June 18. " There have been, for some Time past, great Distur- bances and Riots both in the County and in this Place, Owing to the high Price of Corn. The Colliers ( who are very numerous have several Times rose and committed great Outrages; they broke open Storehouses at Kidwelly ( six Miles from hence) and stole great Quantities of Corn thereout; they have also stopped Boats or Lighters on the River which were loaded with Corn, and stole the same, to the VaVue ot 700 1. and upwards. And Last Wednesday a great many of them broke open a Granary near this Town, but in the Liberty of the County, which a Far- mer had hired to put his Oats in, but as they were carrying off some of it, the Farmer, or some Perfons employ'd by him, fired, and wounded three or four of them, on which they dispersed Sometime after on the same Day, the Farmer applied to our Mayor for his Assistance with the Soldiery quarter'd here, as he expected a Return of greater Number ; to which the Mayor said, the Granary wa. s out of his Jurisdiction, but that if it had been in the Borough he would have given him all the Assistance he could j on which the Farmer, without acquainting him with his Intention, went and hired a Room in a House within the Borough, and carried his Corn there ; And Yesterday abaat 300 of the Colliers came here, with Pick Axes, & c and broke open the House where the Corn was, and were Carrying off the same ; on which Application was made to Mr. Evans ( the Mayor,) for his Assistance, who immediately sent to the Officer and the Invalids to assist him: As soon as the Mayor went there he read the Proclamation to the Rioters, and desired them to disperse but they, being greatly enraged at the Soldiers, made to- wards and attempted striking them ; on which the Officer ordered them to fix their Bayonets on their Pieces, and keep them 0ff; but they resolutely came on, and obliged the Soldiers to retreat, which they did twice; they then attempted to knock the Mayor and Officer down with the Pickaxes, on which the Mayor, seeing no Possibility of otherwise quelling the Riot and preferring his own Life and the Lives of those who attended him, directed the Officer to order the Five in the Front of the Soldiers to fire on them, which they did accordingly, and unfortunately killed three and wounded, two more, one of which ' tis thought can't survive it, wheceupon the rest immediately ran away : One of them that was killed had a Bag of the Corn on his Back. We are now in the utmost Confusion, owing to this melancholy Affair." LONDON. [ Saturday, June 2;. It is said that the Right Hon. the Earl of Halifax will have the vacant Blue Ribbon. The Sum of 16,0001. is granted by Parliament for raising Fortifications, aud making Docks and Coveniencies for building and refitting Shipt, in the Harbour of Mil ford. And We hear that Two Men of War, one of 70 and one of 50 Guns, are already contracted for, to be built there, by the Surveyor who was' sent down to take a View of the Situation of that Haven. Advice has been received at New York, that a large Body of French and Indians had attack'd Fort William Henry, near Lake George, on the 20th of March last, but had been repulsed with considerable Loss. They burnt two Sloops, and almost all the Battoes, with three Storehouses, and in the Huts of the Rangers. The Gat- rison had only seven Men slightly wounded. The Essex, Capt. Poynton, who arrived at Corke, in Ireland on the 11th Instant, with Wheat and Flour, in 28 Days from Salem in New England, brings an Account that Lord Loudon had assembled a large Body of Troops at New- York, to- be embarked for Halifax; that rhe Transports were all ready to take them on board ard a very strict Embargo was laid on throughout the whole Continent. The Exbury, Wolf, arrived at Cowes from South Ca- rolina, was brought to by Admiral Holbourne off the Banks of Newfoundland ( all the Men of War and Trans ports with him well) about a Fortnight ago, who de tained him abour three Hours, and sent home a Packet by him to the Lords of the Admiralty. The Windsor Man of War, one of Admiral Holbourne's Fleet, has taken the St Hereux, Robert, a St. Domingo Ship of ; oo Tons, richly laden, particularly 3o Tons of Indigo, bound for Bourdeaux : She was taken in Lat. 4j, and the Granada Bomb Ketch was along with the Windsor.

Last Tuefday a Woman died at her Lodgings in Half- Moon- Alley, Whitechapel, that for fome Years used to sell Tooth- pickers, and ask'd Charity in the Streets, and just before she departed, she acquainted some Persons about her, that in her Cloaths they would find sewed np Notes and Money, which they did, on unripping them, Bank Notes and Cash to a considerable Value ; after which she ordered 501, to be laid out on her Funeral, which was agreeable to her Request done, and she was last Friday Night interr'd, attended by Thousands of Spectators, in St. Mary's Whitechapel Church Yard. Extract of a Letter from Portsmouth, June 24. " This Morning sailed for the Bay Vice Admiral Bos- cawen, in the Royal George, Capt Buckle, with the Royal Sovereign, Capt.

Extract of a Letter from Dublin, dated June \ 8. " By the Anne of Philadelphia, who arrived in this Harbour laft Thursday, there are many Letters from thence of the 9th of May, advising, that 170 Transports were at New York, ready so take on board 9000 Regular Troops, encamped there and at Rhode- island, to go opon a secret Expedition." We hear by private Letters from Jamaica, that every body there is in good Spirits; that there are twelve Men of War in the Harbour; and that Provisions sell very cheap. EPIGRAM. WHAT Kind of a Box For the Great Mr. —'— f Do Gloucester and design ; Pandora* s, I trow, Full of Curses and Woe j _ Cou'd they Hope in its Bottom confine! Extract of a Letter from an Officer on board his Majesty's. Ship Dunkirk, in Plymouth Sound, June 18. " After we had conducted our India Friends far enough, and safely, to the Westward, we returned to our Station, where we cruised, without any Success, till the 28th of last Month, when we took the Nouvelle Saxonne a French • Privateer, from Bourdeaux, of 18 Carriage Guns, 12 Swivels, and ijo Men. It was a Chace from Peep of Day till Midnight, as the little Devil flew like an Arrow out of a Bow ; and we owe the good Fortune of catching her entirely to very fresh Gales, and the Power of spread ing more Canvas than she, with so much Wind,- could prudently put forth. By this we got Intelligence of their Consorts, among which the Prisoners boasted the Comte de Gramont to exceed whatever before had been built for sailing; and, to do them Justice, they here spoke truly, . for had the French Captain not declared himself, by ta- ' king us for a Letter of Marque, he had, very likely, to this Hour committed Depredations on the Merchants. . " The 9th Instant, in the Morning, we saw a Sail to Leeward, and chaced her: She stood under Topsails a- - cross, seemingly regardless and indifferent about us, till we were come so near that the Eye, without any Glass, • could perceive the Deception ; and then she crowded. The Course lasted eight Hours; now hoping, and then despair- ing ; for, as the Saying is, They ran, and we ran; till at length, however, our Great Guns reach'd and shot away some of her small Sails; which check'd her Ca- reer, and obliged her to surrender: And what should she prove but the very identical Comte de Gramont before- mention'd a charming fine Ship indeed, of 36 Gens, Swivels, and 380 Men. She had been five Weeks from n Bayonne, in which Time she had made five Captures, the English Masters of which were on board, and 30 Sailors. •• I shall not endeavour, Sir, to describe a Passion which felt is best understood ; I mean the Joy these Peo- ple had of being retaken, who have informed us the Go- vernor of Georgia, his Family, and Secretary, were on board one of the Vessels this Privateer had taken, and,' after being stripped, in that Manner were sent to France. The Frenchman has been interrogated upon this Matter, but denies the Charge or Knowledge of any such Treat, ment, though the Governor's Cloaths, Wife's and Child's. Bureau, Sword, Buckles, Seal, and Papers, Sec. are found in his Possession ; which makes us reasonably conclude the Story is true, and nothing exaggerated."

The Fire was for some Days so furious On both Sides, that such as were slain in the Sallies made by the Garrison lay un buried like- wise, which occasioned an insufferable Stench { but they have been since buried by the Prussians, who were able to do it without Molestation, the besieged having disconti- nued their Fire both for want of Powder, and because the Walls, on which their Cannon was mounted are re- duced to a Heap of Rubbish by the Prussian Artillery." fTis said, that it having been represented to his Ma- jesty that the Troops which encamp will not be able to support themselves with their present pay, on account of the Dearness of Provisions, Orders are given, That an Allowance of a Pound and a half of Bread per Day be de- livered to each private Centinel, for which they are to pay no more than Five farthings. By Letters from Carolina we are informed, that the Garrison of Fort Loudon has been reinforced, as well as all the other Forts ; and that a Battalion from Lord Lou- don was daily expected : That they had heard several French Ships, with Troops on Board, were arrived at Mississippi, and have Reason to suspect something is hatching against Carolina. Notwithstanding what has been so often said of the Ministry being settled, we have great Reason to think, from the Intelligence we receive, that it is as far off as ever. We have the Pleasure to acquaint the Publick, That the Right Hon the Earl of Coventry is in a fair Way of Recovery. BANKRUPTS. Charles Victor, of Cork Street.

THE beginning of next Month will be published a New Paper, called LLOYD's EVENING POST and BRITISH CHRONICLE. The general Plan of this Paper is the same with that of the London Chronicle, which is already sufficiently Known j but the Days of Publication will be different. It will be pub- ished in the Evening of every Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and circu- lated thro great part of the Kingdom by the Post which now sets out In what were called the bye Nights to all the trading Cities, and all the Sea Ports of Note. The Reasons that induce the Proprietors to alter the Time of Publication from that of every other News Paper, are, that all the foreign their regular Course, arrive in the forenoon of those Days by translating of which the News they bring will be known in London the same Night, and in other Parts the next Day as early as it is at present in London. Add to this, that the com mercial Intelligence by private letters, which now spread to a small circle round the Exchange, will be regularly inserted in this Paper., and y an immediate Publication become generally known ; an Advantage no small moment to Persons at a Distance concerned in Trade. To tns, Coffee Housesi Taverns, and Publick Houses in the Country, the having a Paper regularly every Day, will be more agreeable to their Headers than having two or three at once, which usually are filled with the very same Intelligence. At a Time therefore that the Expence of news Papers is greatly enhanced by a DOUBLE DUTY, an Attempt serve the Publick in general, and at the same Time ease the Pur- hasers, will, It is hoped, meet with Encouragement. By sending Orders to the Clerks of the respective Roads, Gen- tlemen, and others in the Country, will be regularly served with Lloyd's Evening Post, as it is published. n. B. Advertsements and Letters to the Author are taken in at Lloyd's Coffee House. T. CLARE, Bookseller and Stationer, Bewdley. or at his shop near the Market- House, in Stowerbridge, ( where Attendance and Catalogues will be given every Market- Day), S E L LS all Sorts of BOOKS and PAMPHLETS, • ANTIENT or MODERN, Bibles, Common Prayer - Books, Testaments, Spelling- Books, Psalters, Primers, & c. Wholesale or Retail. To the PUBLICK. AS the Act of Parliament for laying an Additional Stamp Duty of One HALF- PENNY on every News Paper, will take Place on Tuesday next, the 5th of July, Notice is hereby given. That, next Thursday this Paper will begin to be sold for Two PENCE HALF- penny j and as tbe Expences in carrying it on will always require a Weekly Discharge, it is desired that all Persons who take it in would pay for it Weekly; and this, ' tis presum'd, the Publick will the more readily comply with, as the great Loss and Inconvcnience consequent from this Additional Duty, will not admit of any Allow wance being made to such Persons who might be desirous of taking it in by the Quarter. And it may be ne- cessary to observe, as a material Argument for its being paid for Weekly, that the Stamp'd Paper ( which will come to near three Fifths of the Money the NewsPaper is to be sold for) must be purchased in a Quantity sufficient for several Weeks' Sale, and the Whole of it paid for before any Part of it will be deliver'd from the Stamp Office in London. And whereas by the said Act of Parliament the Duty on every advertisement will be Two SHILLINGS, ( which before was only ONE SHILLING) every Advertisement ( however short or of what Nature soever) must pay FOUR SHILLINGS for the first Time of its Insertion, and THREE SHILLINGS AND Six PENCE every Time of its Continu- ance ; and tbut all Advertisements of an uncommon Length, or that require Preference of Place or Character, will be expected to pay an advanced Price, according to their Length, & c. O Unless the Publick will condescend to the above Terms, as well with Respect to the Price of the Paper, as that of inferring Advertisements, it is pre- sum'd no Country News Paper can possibly be car- ry'd on without considerable Loss to the Proprietor. To shew I am not unmindful of past Favours, I take this Opportunity of acknowledging and returning Thanks to the Publick for the Encouragement I have hitherto met with, assuring them. That how to merit the same for the future, will be the constant Study of, their already much oblig'd Humble Servant, On Wednesday next, the 6th of July, at the late Dwelling House of Mr. Rowland Morris, Grocer, at the Top of the Broad Street, near the Cross, Worceller, will be to be sold, All SORTS of very good HOUSHOLD FURNITURE, VI z.
