Arrivals in the Gore and Highland Prizes for Dublin and Cork
News from Edinburgh and Ireland reports ships arriving in the Gore with cargoes yet unnamed, and highland movements by General Wade. Glasgow gifts an equestrian statue to King William. Governor James Macray is appointed to Fort St. David and Fort St. George. In Dublin a coachman dies after a bull gore, brandy and tea seized on the road, and political prorogations advance to October. Cork Sheriff Newman clashes with locals over cattle seizure, a battle ensues, and a fatality is narrowly reported. Market quotes for South Sea and bank securities close the bulletin.
