This is my niece, Lady Bellair added, pointing to a young lady seated by her side; 'I give this party for her. 'General Faneville, my lady. 'You are very late, said Lady Bellair. 'I dined at Lord Rochfort's, said the general bowing. 'Rochfort's! Oh! where are they? where are the Rochforts? they ought to be here. I must, I will see them. Do you think Lady Rochfort wants a nursery governess?
From thence we sailed toward Rochfort, which it seems was our main object; and consequently one should have supposed that we had pilots on board who knew all the soundings and landing places there and thereabouts: but no; for General M -t asked the Admiral if he could land him and the troops near Rochfort? The Admiral said, with great ease.

Present: Thomas Verner, Grand Master; J. C. Beresford, grand secretary; R. C. Smith, jun., deputy secretary; H. A. Woodward; J. S. Rochfort; T. F.

The man who drove the cart was blown to atoms nothing of him could be found; two of the horses were killed, others were blown to pieces and their limbs scattered to a distance; the head and body of a man were found a hundred and twenty yards from the spot. Mr. Murray was the name of the officer I am speaking of: he had with him a Mr. Rochfort and a Mr. Nugent. Mr.
