Catalogue description ----to the COUNTESS OF LINDSEY.

--". . . I have not yet seen Mr. Charles, but when I do, I shall congratulate his union with the chief of his house and applaud his conduct in this matter. Mr. Philip did very handsomely present me with 10l. for my care of him in the small pox." I am enquiring for a Frenchman to attend Mr. Charles, and also about wines for you. I know when there is some which is accounted very good, but the price is so unreasonable, that is 2s. a quart, that I can not find in my heart to give it, "though now in taverns for the choicest redds, 2s. a bottle is ordinarily given."

"The bonfires and illuminations are lighted for the King's reception. The Queene went to meet him this morning. He landed at Yarmouth, and was to lye at Colchester last night. The French did not besiege Charleroy but have bombarded it in passing by it."

Postscript.--My niece is now set up for herself, and I hope your Ladyship will remember her when there, is occasion for a mantuamaker. Signed only "& c &c."
