The wreck of the Antelope, a packet in the service of the Eaft India Company off the Pelow iflands in Auguft 1783, has been the means of discovering to us a New World, or set of Human Beings, who, though of an uncultivated nature, yet differing from what is commonly termed Savages; for, inftead of being wild and brutal, their conduct to the English, during their ttay upon the island, appears to have been not only humane and generous, but as if they fympathifed with the diftrefs of the unfortunate, by rendering every affiftance in their power: they felt our people was diftreffed, and, perceiving it, thought it a duty incumbent on them to relieve; it was not that worldly munificence which beflows and spread its favours with an eye of retribution, it was the pure emotions of native benevolence, and whilft their liberality gratified the fenfe, their virtue struck the heart.

The rev. Patrick Fay was tried at the Tho fel Court for forgery, when he was found Guilty, and fentenced to be hanged on Saturday the 8th of November next. Mr. FAT's Trial. 6.] Thursday last the recorder, pursuant to adjournment, fat at the Thollel, for the pu-pole of discharging infolvent debtors agreeable to the late act of parliament; after which the court proceeded to the trial of the prifoner, Patrick Fay, commonly called the Rev. Patrick Fay, indicted for forgery. The indiment confifted of four counts, the firft was forging a receipt, purpoiting to be the receipt of one Patrick Fulham, for the sum of 131. 18, od h. w th an intent to defraud the prefent high sheriff of the county of Meath; the second for uttering the fame, knowing it to be forged, with the like intent; the third and fourth cunts were the fame as the two former, only being laid with an intent to defraud the sub-sheriff of the county Meath. The circumstances, as appeared in evidence, were as follow: The profecutor, Patrick Fulham, had a joint intereft with others, for five years to come, in a Farm called Harrittown, in the county Meath, worth 361. per annum, and being indebted to one John Fulham, his brother, in s fmall fum, Mr. Fay, as acting for the brother, had execution iffued to the theriff against Patrick Fulham, and this farm fold, at which fale Mr. Fay was the highest bidder, and depofited the purchale in a national bank note for gol. with Mr. Fulham, the fub-sheriff. When he afterwards came, as, acting for the plaintiff in the execution, to fettle, the gol. note, was returned to him, and he passed his own note for the fum of 13. 18.9d. h. being the overplus which was to come to the defendant: and he afterwards produced to Mr. Fisher the receipt for which he was now indebted, and got up his note. It appeared that Fulham had been applied to by Fay to fign this receipt, as a mere matter of form, but had refuted it; and it allo appeared that fol more of the band, for which the arm had brea fold, was paid by Fulham, and indorted on the band, but no credit had been given for it on the fale, and that when Fay paled the receipt to Mr. Fisher, he faid he had it from Mr. Fulham, the defendant, himlelf, who could not, appear, as he was in fome difficulties. It also appeared that he had applied to one John Fulham, who had a brother of the name of Patrick, to get him to fign this receipt, but that he had refused to get his brother do it. To defend himself from this charge, Fay produced one Coyne, a school-mafter, and a maid fervant; who attempted to prove that he had gotten this receipt from doctor Tho mas Fulham, the brother of the profecutor, as a genuine receipt, and that he was ignorant of any fraud in the business. The jury, however, giving no credit to thefe witnelles, found him guilty. The counsel for the prifoner mentioned, they had iomething to offer in arreft of Judgment, it the court would fufpend paffing it at the prefent; but no material objection being then stated, the court proceeded to pals fentence, at the fame time faying, that they would allow time enough to bring a writ of error, if the proceedings were at all wrong; fentence was according,,paffed on the the prisoner, and his execution ordered on Saturday the 8th of November next. Sept. 6.] A reduction of twenty horfe police took place, and eight inspectors of the watch were appointed in their flead: the pay of the remaining hoife is reduced to twenty pounds a year per man, out of which they are to pay for their clothing. The hundred additional recruits in the police guard are not intended to any night duty, by which means it is expected the prefent four hundred watchmen being exempt from day attendance, will more effectually be enabled to perform their duty at night. Ad order we hear has been fent to the commiffioners of police, to make up the accounts respecting that establishment to the first of this month, for the inspection of the lord lieu The marchioness of Buckingham is faid to be fo near her time, that it is intended to remove to the castle in the course of next month. As to the park, it does not appear by any means, to be a favourite place of residence. The unfortunate Fay, had been fent fome years ago, as chaplain to an Eaft Indiaman, from France to China, and remained for some time at Canton and the island of Bourbon. He returned home with a fum of money, which he has been heard to fay, amounted to 1500l. fome of which he bad put out to intereft, and, with the reft, he purchased the chaplaincy of the Royal Hofpital, which he was afterwards deprived of for his conduct. The little hopes of mercy held out to Mr. Fay, make his fituation ferious. His being known to be a man of affluence, and under no preffure of neceffity, to cause his having recourfe to fuch a criminal expedient, weighs chiefly against him; as he is supposed to be the proprietor of at least a dozen houses in Dublia. 8.] There is now on board the Maxwell from Grenada, lying at the Batchelor's- walk, a sheep of that ifland, with a young lamb which was yeaned on the paffage; a ftrange phænomenon at this feafoa of the year with us.
