y the beard upon matters of far less practical importance. In 1669, we find Ellwood engaged in escorting his fair friend, Gulielma, to her uncle's residence in Sussex. Passing through London, and taking the Tunbridge road, they stopped at Seven Oak to dine. The Duke of York was on the road, with his guards and hangers-on, andf the Duke of York. This seems to have been his last ride with Gulielma. She was soon after married to William Penn, and took up her abode at Worminghurst, in Sussex. How blessed and beautiful was that union may be understood from the following paragraph of a letter, written by her husband, on the eve of his departure for Amef her husband, Governor Penn, had fallen dangerously ill. On coming before the judge, I told him, says Ellwood, that I had that morning received an express out of Sussex, that William Penn's wife (with whom I had an intimate acquaintance and strict friendship, ab ipsis fere incunabilis, at least, a teneris unguiculis) lay now ill,

that, if Lord Mansfield's opinion had been correct, slavery in Jamaica would have ceased the moment it fell under the dominion of Great Britain. From that moment it became as much a part of Great Britain, so far as the common law is concerned, as Kent or Sussex. If in Kent or Sussex the common law set a negro free, why should it not have set him free in Jamaica? --Yet, we find that it did not, but that on the contrary slavery continued in Jamaica until it was abolished by act of Parliament. that, if Lord Mansfield's opinion had been correct, slavery in Jamaica would have ceased the moment it fell under the dominion of Great Britain.

as always been regarded with interest. Old King George the Third had fifteen sons and daughters, and yet in 1818, after the death of the Princess Charlotte, there were fears that there would be no lineal descendants of his to wear the crown. Only three of his sons were then married. The Prince Regent had lost his only child, and was separated from his wife. The Duke of York was separated from his duchess the Duke of Cumberland was divorced and widowed, and the marriage of the Duke of Sussex being without the royal assent, availed nothing for the succession.--So there was haste made to marry the other surviving royal children, none of whom were young. It was even thought desirable to get a husband for the Princess Elizabeth. who was forty-eight years old, and she was married to the Prince of Hesse Homburg.
