Old Bailey Trials and Transport Arrivals At Deptford
Yesterday the Old Bailey heard 29 prisoners tried with 14 for transport and 15 acquitted. Transport ships carried 41 men and 28 women from Surrey gaols to Deptford, including Molt Duck of the Black-boy-alley gang. A pamphlet claims to correct Stirn's character amid a fatal quarrel with Mr Mathews, with testimonies of Stirn’s temper and generosity, ending in a pistol duel that killed Mathews and left one weapon aimed at Stirn.

Soldiers and Sons of Peers as MPs in Parliament
A letter to the London Evening Post argues against electing soldiers as representatives, citing their duty to the field over lawmaking, and warns against electing the sons of peers who may subvert the balance of power. It urges voters to favor candidates who will diligently serve, resist bribery, and support triennial parliaments.
