FOREIGN AFFAIRS, 1751. say

AGUE, November 2, N. S. The

H deputation from the fates of Friel

land waited on her royal highness, the princess royal, and administered to her the oaths as governante and guardian to the young prince stadtholder her fon; so that the has now been acknowledged as fuch by all the feven provinces.-The roth the deputies of the ftates of Zealand and alfo thofe of the province of Groningen, and county of Ommelanden, had audiences of her royal highness, and prefented the young prince with the title of first noble of each of these provinces; and the fame evening the states general fent a deputation, to invite her to take her feat at the council of ftate, and to adminifter to her the oath customarly taken upon that occafion.-And the 23d, the states general created the young prince, now called William V. hereditary ftadtholder and captain general of Brabant and Flanders, of the upper quarter of Guelderland, and of the three counties of Outre-Meule, Wedde and West. Woldingerland, with divers rights, privileges and prerogatives, which are to be enjoy'd by the princefs governante during his minority. The plan formed by the late stadthold. er before his death, containing 90 pages in 4to, for re-establishing and improving the commerce of the republick, lies now before the colleges of the admiralty for their approbation, and merits their utmost attention; for the Dutch are foon like to have a dangerous rival in the city of Embden, to which city the king of Pruffia has lately granted the privilege of being a free port, and in which he designs to establish several manufactories, with confiderable rights and immunities.

Paris, Nov. 12, N. S. On the 8th, being the day before that of the marriages of the poor maidens, on account of the birth of the duke of Burgundy *, the bridegrooms and brides reforted to the churches of their refpective parishes, where the ceremony of their betrothing was performed, all the bells ringing in every parish; early next morning this ever-memorable day was ushered in with a discharge of the city cannon; at nine the parties again reforted to their respective churches, which were hung with tapestry, and illuminated with waxlights; a mafs was folemnly fung, at which affifted a magiftrate in his robes, and the two churchwardens of the parishes, who held the pall over the couples, who after the ceremony (which was declared by a fecond difcharge) were carried in coaches, which had been lent by the gentry of each parish, to the places appointed for the feafts. The pairs of St. Sulpice and St. Roche's parishes had the honour to be ferved at gable by princes and perfons of the high

527

eft diftinction, who, to that condefcenfion, at the close of the entertainment, added confiderable tokens of their generonity. About fix in the evening, the new-married folks were carried to their homes in the fame coaches which had taken them in the morning to the churches. There was in all the churches a compofure and devotion which spoke their fenfe of what they were about, and, at the feafts, a decent chearfulness becoming the occafion; tears of humanity were seen to stand in many of the fpectators eyes, and every thing was tranfa&ted with all poffible regularity. A detachment of the city guards was stationed in every church, and in the evening the Town-house and churches were fplendidly illuminated. The number of marriages amounted to 600.

The Dutch ambassador has made reprefentations to the court, concerning the interest which the merchants of Holland have in the town of Mazulipatan, which the governor of Pondichery feized on, after the defeat of Nazarfingue, by virtue of the ceffion made by the new king of Golconda to the French t. Capt. l'Etorey, who arrived last month at Honfleur, relates, that he faw on the banks of Newfoundland, 21 French fhips employed in the cod fishery, which had at that time caught 129,600, exclufive of the Bellona, the Lion, and the Flora; the two former of which had, in the month of August caught 10,000 each, and the latter 4000 the beginnning of July. The new fquadron lately fitted out from Breft, failed the 23d of last month, under the command of commodore de Salvert, commiffary general of the marine artillery at that port, who had orders not to open his inftructions till he arrived at a certain latitude.26th, the king having laft Monday caufed the registers of the parliament to be laid before him, and the parliament having met next day, in order to take into their confideration the affair of the general hospital the day following, his majesty's orders were read to them, fignifying that they should not proceed to bufinefs, whereupon the affembly broke up, and the members retired to their re fpective apartments.

The plague raged laft fummer at Conftantinople fo fiercely as to deftroy above 70,000 people, and at laft made its way into the Seraglio, and even in the Harem, or womens apartment, three of the grand fignor's pages, and fix of the ladies, with four eunuchs their keepers, having died of it; which obliged his fublime highness to fly from the danger to a country palace on the Euxine fea; but by laft letters it is faid to have entirely ceafed.
