one fide the Anchor of Hope, with the following infcription: "The Marine Society, inftituted in London, July 1756, during the war with France and Spain, by voluntary fubfiptions, cloathed and fitted out 5452 landen as leamen, and 4787 boys to be bred feamen, for the fervice of the Roval Navy, and alio provided for all the boys who applied to them at the clote of the war in 1762."

Metto, "Charity and Policy united.”On the exergue, "Robert Lord Romney, Chairman, and John Thornton, Elq'; Treasurer."
London, May 29. On Friday, Mr Randay, in the name of Earl Stanhope, Dow at Geneva, made a donation to the British Mafeum of the original articles prefented by the Barons in Runny Mead to King John in 1215, as the groundwork for his Magna Charta; of which the original, part of the Cottonian col• lection, had been already depofited in the Muleum. By a comparison of thele articles with the complete ratification of them in the Great Charter of King John, it appears, that the parliamentary rights of the smaller freeholders, and the liberty of the boroughs, were established by the King, in opposition to the views of the Barons, who only meant to make themfelves independent of the crown, without any regard either to the liberty of the people, or the fafety of the ftate. wife policy of the King, though ineffectual during the weak and turbulent reign of his fon, fhone forth under his grandfon Edward I.; who, upon the principle of King John, gave a regular form to the boule of Commons, and an opening to that balance of power which produces liberty, and equal laws, without losing fight of that due fubordination by which alone the feveral powers of the state can be called forth, united, and exerted for the common good.-Dr Blackftone has given a very correct edition of these articles, in his hiftory of the Great Charter." 4 Y
