Dunraven-Castle, Dec. 12, 1804. (CIRCULAR.) MV Mini, Whitehall, Dec. 6, 1804. I beg leave to repreeent to your Lordship that much mis- chief is likely to arise from the frauds committed by issuing of couhterleit Silver Coin, chiefly brought from Ireland, and frequently stampt, the better to deceive the public; and from the erroneous opinion having prevailed that, because ,it was once circulated in Ireland,"(though since suppressed there) it is now not unlawful to circulate it here. In order, therefore, to stop the, progress of this evil, and to give eflicacy to the laws for the punishment of persons uttering counterfeit coin, knowing k to be so, particularly the Act of the 1:> and 16 Geo. II. c. 2"8".{ am induced to re- quest that your Lordship will earnestly recommend it to the Magistrates, in their several districts'in the county of Gla- morgan, to give notice to the public that large quantities of such base Coin are in circulation that such circulation is an offence against the laws; and to recommend it to traders and others to secure the parties tendering such money, and also the counterfeit money tendered, so as to identity it; stating, at the same time., in such notice, that, on the appli- cation to a Magistrate, (in case the facts can be suflicicntly proved) the offenders will be prosecuted by the Solicitor to his Majesty's Mint at the public expeiice, and in thrtt case a reasonable compensation will be made for the iosg of time and trouble of the witnesses in such prosecution. To facilitate this mode of proceeding, and the better to enable the NIagistratesto carry it into effect, I be leave to add, that in any particular cases brought before them, .wherein they may be desirous of obtaining further infor- mation, they wil! receive it, upon communicating the cir- cumstances of such case to John Vernon, Esq. offincohi's- Inn, the Solicitor to his Majesty's Mint. I think it proper to add on this occasion, that in the case of any quantity of counterfeit Coin being found in the pos- session of any person, it will be expedient to seize such Coin, and to make immediate communication thereof to the Soli- citor of the Mint, who has express orders to attend to such communication and, in the mean time, it will be proper to commit the person for furthur examination.

Mr. Bennett. Mr. Griffith Jenkins is appointed, by 75$Grace the Duke of Beau tort, harbourmaster- ol'rhis port., in the room of the late Mr. Baruttby Hawiiuis. The Cardiff volunteer cavalry are expected to en- ter upon permaneat duty for 14 clays inWns town about the 7th of next month. ISeath Assembly was held last night, and at- tracted a highly respectable company.—The Swan- sea Assemblies commence next Thursday, (Meud- vertiacmait) on which evening, we understand those at Cowbridge will also commence. Wednesday last the Royal voltin- teers returned hOlne fro111 ilaverfordwest^tri Pem- broke, where they had been Oil perrrHlmmt duty for 31 days, and merited the res pec t and esteem of the inhabitants of both towns for their laudable at- tention M military duty, and correct demeanour in quarters. A superb pair of colours was presented to this tine regiment, yesterday se'nnight, by the Right Hon. Lady Kensington, in an elegant and ap- propriate speech and after the ceremony had con- cluded, the corps was reviewed by General Gas- coyne, when they acquitted themselves with their usual excellence. Lord Kensington- entertained the officers, &c. on the occasion with a sumptuous dinner, and a ball in the evening, at which all the beauty and fashion of Haverfordwest and the sur- rounding country were present. The Royal Cornish Miners marched from Haver- fordwest, where they had been quartered for five months, on Wednesday se'nnight, on their route for Rochester and Dover, and passed through Bre- con on Monday last.-It is but a tribute of justice to add, that their conduct, during their stay in Wales, reflected the highest honour on every offi- cer and man in that excellent regiment. The ground is now marked out for the new mili- tary depot in the town of Brecon, (as lately men- tioned) and the building is to be compleated with all possible dispatch. Lord Cawdor, and Sir William and Miss Paxton are noticed amongst the last arrivals at Bath. We beg leave to call the particular attention ol our readers to the advertisement in this page re- specting counterfeit silver coin; and trust that the very salutary measures recommended by Govern- ment will put a total stop to its circulation through- out the kingdom, Thursday the vicarage of Bradford, Wilts, va-! cated by the ReV. Dr. Randolph, was presented, by the Dean and Chapter of Bristol, to the Rev. E. Bowles, Minor Canon of that Cathedral. The Breconshire Agricultural Society held their annual meeting at the White Lion, Brecon. on Wed- nesday last.—Severe candidates appeared, but the principal premium was adjudged to Walter Jef- freys, Esq. for the best crop of hoed turnips. There was only one candidate lor the premium for drill husbandry, to whom it would have been awarded, had he not omitted to give the regular notice re- quired by the Society. On Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday last, was held in Rith, the anniversary of the "Bath and West of England Society, for the encouragement of agriculture, arts, manufactures, and commerce, B. Hobhouse, Esq. M. P. F.K.S. in the chair; on which occasion, as usual, a very large number ol the nobility and other chief members, from various parts of the nation, attended; and several distin- guished strangers were introduced. An unusual quantity of business was transacted, and premiums granted in the various departments within the plan of the society. Many samples of excellent cattle and other live stock, both fat and lean, were exhibited; also improved implements in hus- bandry. And very extraordinary improvements were demonstrated in the manufactures of fine "broad-cloths and kerseymeres, from wool of the improved Anglo-Spanish sheep among these, the exhibitions of Dr. Parry were abundant and high- ly interesting. The members dined together daily at the White Hart, where also much business and important discussion took place.—At the above meeting, a premium was adjudged to John Bil- lingsley, Esq. for the greatest quantity of work done by neat cattle only, from Jan. 1, to Dec. l, 1804. By this experiment, the utility of oxen, and the advantage of the double-furrow plough, for the purposes of tillage,, are clearly demon- strated for it appears, that no less than 530 acres of land (statute measure) were ploughed, in the course of 11 months, with one team of six oxen, working the double-furrow plough. And the ex- pences of ploughing did not exceed 4s. lod. per acre. A pig, the property of John Macnamara, Es,q. of Langoed castle, Breconshire, was killed on Monday last, of the extraordinary weight of ^29 score and 8lbs.—The fat on the shoulders was 6 inches deep. Upwards of 4000 bags of wheat were imported into Liverpool, last week, from Danizick. Fortune has now a just claim on Fame to be ac- tive with her trumpet, in proclaiming one of the richest Lotteries, considering the few numbers it -contains, that was ever offered to the embrace of the Public. Aviewonly of its capital scheme is sufficient to confirm the fact. If, under this con- viction, such as can afford to risk a trifle neglect to possess themselves of either a Ticket or Share, all arguments would be useless to shew how a. fortune may be suddenly won by a spirited stroke of ad- venture. An inquest was held a few days since, by E. Snead, Esq. Coroner, on the body of a woman, who. with a child in her arms, was attempting to pilfer a lump of coal from a waggon, (a practice we are sorry to say, but too frequent) at Clydach, near this town, but, her foot slipping, she fell under, the wheel, which passing over OIle of her legs, shatter- ed it so dreadfully, that a mortification ensued, and terminated her existence.—Another inquest was held by the same Coroner this week, on the body of Samuel Matthews, a young man belonging to the William and Jane, Roberts, master, ,\vho fell from the shrouds on Sunday last, as the vessel was entering our river, and was unfortunately drowned. Verdicts in both cases, Accidental 'Death. Monday last an inquest has held on the body of a boy about eleven years of age, who was found starved to death in the hundred ofTalgarth, in that county. It appeared that this unfortunate child; in company with his two younger* brothers, had followed a ftfneral in that neighbourhood, and hav- ing disappeared on the road, it is supposed he had perished, through the -inclemency of the-weather, as the body was found about a fprtnight afterwards covered will} snow, j The mode of letting larpis by public notice to the best bidderis beginning to be adopted by itfanv gentlemen in England. It is a Scotch fashion, ami thought by some to be a good one, while others a I btrpngly. reprobate it. The mode of farming is pointed out at the time of bidding. in honour of the birth-place (Shrewsbury) of the theatrical phenomenon, the manufacturers of Shrewibury cakes have given them the elevated title of Young Ruscius's. The new Theatre at Bath proceeds with a ra- pidity never beiore seen in that city. At the head the subscription we see the illustrious name of his Royal Highness the. Prince. of Wales,, who, with the condescension and liberality which dis- tinguish his character, has also added that of his amiable daughter the Princess Charlotte of Wales; it certainly is an affectionate compliment from the royal parent to his enchanting little favourite. Tuesday se'nnight, a gentleman who lay at the eece inn, Cirencester, got up in his sleep, about two o'clock in the mornipg, and, after putting on his breeches and stockings, went out at the cham- ber-window, which was two-pair, of stairs high, and 0 got safe down into the street! He thence walked a considerable way on the Fairfo-rd road, till he came to the turnpike-gate, which being shut, he went up against it with such violence, that lie was thrown down backwards when, awaked by the shock, he discovered his deplorable situation. Al- though he was much bruised by the fall, he was en- abled to alarm the inhabitants of a small house adjoining, who readily administered every comfort in their power: and We are happy to add, that the effects of this strange adventure are not likely to prove of any serious consequence. C)w The following extraordinary circumstance hap- pened on Friday se'nnight at Dentou, near Man- chester:—A person of the name of Wilson, evi- dently disordered in his senses, came to the coal- works of Messrs. Coobe, and requested of the men at the difierent pits to suffer him to leap down They drove him away, and were considering how to secure him, when on a sudden he ran with treat speed, threw off his hat, and precipitated himself neadlong down a pit 114 yards in depth, to the ter- ror of the beholders.—A man was immediately let down, not doubting he should find the desperate stranger lifeless but, to his astonishment, he was standing upright at the bottom of the pit, up to the neck in water; not only able to speak, but to assist very actively in getting into the bucket, and aopa- rently in his perfect senses.—When brought up he i could stand, and walked into the hut with very lit- tle help. A surgeon being sent for, he was bled, and on examination was found not to have a single limb bmken I-On Saturday he was conveyed to the Manchester Infirmary, where he is now doin,, very well, and is in a fair way for recovery. A Court Martial was held a few days since, in Birmingham, to investigate the cond uct ofT. Bennet, a permment serjeant in the first battalion of loyal Birmingham volunteers. The charges against him were for leaving his guard, with which he was sta- tioned overtheammunitioh.&c. at the barracks, for several hours together, & other improper and unsol- dicr-like conduct. The Court, after weighing every circumstance in the most deliberate and impartial manner, pronounced him guilty, and transmitted the result of their inquiry to the Colonel. On Monday morning the three battalions were assem- bled in the barrack yard, and the sentence was read over to them, while formed into separate circles. The delinquent was then brought forward, reduced to the ranks, led round the yard with a halter about his neck, in front of each company, and drummed out of the corps. On the night of Saturday, se'nnight, the dwelling of Farmer Raynolds, at East-Chinnock, Somerset, several out-buildings, a stable with four horses in it, with a considerable quantity of hemp, flax, barley, and other farming stock, were destroyed by fire. A defective chimney is supposed to have been the cause. John Stephens was committed to the county prison at Bodmin a few days ago, charged with the wilful murder of Richard Pentecost, of the parish of St. Kevern. It appears that Stephens, who be- longs to the new office of Inspection, met with Pentecost and another man with smuggled goods in their possession, which he attempted to seize; aiiil hence arose the scuffle which terminated so fa- tallv, Friday, at the Admiral Duncan public-house, in Oldham-street, Manchester, a man, on being recog- nized as a deserter, drew a knife from his pocket, IZ and, in the phrenzy of despair, cut his throat in a dr^adiul manner, but not so effectually as to termi- nate bis existence. He was conveyed to the infinia- ry, and hopes are entertained of his recoverv, 1 reland-.—The 15tli, 90th, and 9Gth regiments of foot, which embarked on board the transports at Monkstown, have been disembarked and marched into quarters. The following are some further particulars of the horrible murder mentioned in our last paper: Waterford, Dec. 6.—On the night of Friday the 23d ult. a most cruel murder and robbery was committed at Lisa- row, near Ardmore, in this county, on the bodies of Darin and Dame! Ilearii, farmers, (father and son), bv three arm- ed men, who broke into the house about the hour of twelve or one o'clock, (many more remaining outside,) and hav- ing procured a light, they immediatel y commenced a starch for the abovementioued persons, aud on finding them the) vied with each other who should commit the horrid deed,- which they did by shooting the son through the head, and killing him on the spot they then fired at the father, but only wounding him in the thigh, they compelled him to take a draft, supposed to be poison, as he died shortly af- ter in great agony.—The villains then robbed the house of cash and bank-notes to the amount of 1201. and burned promissory notes and bonds to the amount of more after which they deliberately sat down to the fire, and smoked some tobacco, and before they departed bound the remainder of the family, by oath, to quit the farta in three days. Saturday night last, the dwelling-house of a poor man who was employed by Mr. Robert Hogati, in -the careTtf a farm lately taken by him in the county of Waterford, near Clonujel, was broken open by a banditti, who beat the un- fortunate man in a very desperate manner, and forced him to take an oath that he would (put the place before the en- suing night. They on the same night eommitled soine other outrages on, a house of Mr. Dudley's, from whom Hoaan had taken the farm. Copper Ores sold at Redruth, on Thursday the 6th inst. Mines. Tons.
