Permit 5 me to prelent you with a rougti sketch or lkeietun of it. The father of the firff George who governed Etfgiana was Erin.lt Augudus, dyke or Hanover. He wa<> a younger brother oi Gcoige William, duice of Bt uniWick, Lu nenburg and Zell. this George William, after lpending his youth in what, among legitimates is call ed gallantry, but in common parl ance whoredom, became, at the age ot iorty, deeply in love with a plebeian French woman of the udine of Eleanor Definier. This lady refuting to yiciu to his Reduc tions, he hau no way of gratifying his paliion, but by marrying her Ihe only liiue or tms match was one daughter, the lamous Sophia Dorothea. J. his daughter being the heiress of ail her father's estates, her uncle Erneff Auguitus, of Han over, in order to secure the lich prize tor his lon George, a profli gate debauchee, demanded her of her father in marriage, The young lady was in loye wuEa debauched rake ot the name ot Count Konigf mark, a Saxon by birth, who hid traverlea Europe in q Vl eft of amor ous enterpnfes, ana who very nar rowly eicaped being hanged at ly burn for the murder ot a certain Mr. Thy nne. Several of his ac complices were caught and hanged, but he made his escape The duke ot Brumwick compelled his daugh ter Sophia Dorothea, notwithstand ing her deep rooted paliion for Konigfmark, to marry her cousin George of Hanover; just as the late uuke of Brunswick compelled Ins daughter to many George the preienr prince regent of England, notwithstanding her violent attach ment to her lriffi plebeian gallant. J his iflue was very similar George, the lon ci Erneff, after his man lage, continued his gallantries with what in the legitimate Ryle is called Ins miftn-Ifes, just as his de icendailt, the prince regent did with his. His wife Sophia Dorothea thought it but fair play that (he should do the fame thing, and as \_Payable half yearly. her husband seldom kept her company, (he cohabited w. irh her firft lover the notorious lvm igfmark. She confined herlelf pretty closely to .her chamber, un der pretence of indisposition. Her gallant was admitieu with all possi ble privacy, and retired before day light in the morning, by a private passage from her bed room It happened, however, that old Er neff, the feigning duke, had a kept milt rets called Madame Platen, who was also enamoured With Ko niglmark, and enjoyed his embra ces. This lady became jealous of Sophia Dorothea, bribed fome of the attendants, and so difeovered the whole intrigue —This she loon communicated to her paramour duke Erneff who one night placed a guard at the secret passage, and, as Konigfmark was leaving his lo ver, the guard seized him, carried him immediately to a fubterraneous vault or dungeon, which, by means of a pipe, could at pleasure be filled with water. No sooner was he shut up than the water was let in, and he was drowned dead enough. vV hen Sophia Dorothea was in formed of this cataff rophe she raged molt turioufly, and exp re fled the molt rancorous indignation and re sentment. Neither the authority nor menaces of her father-in law could lubdue her spirit or reduce her to moderation.—She called him a murderer, a monster, an affaflin, and declared she would no longer remain among luch savages, and in her frantic violence made several attempts to destroy her own life Hei good easy husband, George (aftei wards George I of England,) was absent at the time this happen, ed. His father Erneff, who com muted the murder, shut up Sophia Dorothea in a prison called the caltle of Ahlden, a few miles from Hanover, where she was detained during her natural life. This tianlaction took place in the year 1636, at the time Sophia Dorothea was only twenty years of age. She was the mother of George 11, the grandfather of the present king of England the great grandfa ther oi the legitimate prince regent, i hat count Konigfmark was the real father of this legitimate second George no person acquainted with the tranla&ion ever doubted. In order to give a coloring to his legi timacy, George I. after he amend ed the throne of England (which by legitimate tight was the inherit ance of James Steuart Si his defen dants) confemed, a matter of state policy, to become contented, and lent an embaliy of English lords to Ahlden, to invite Sophia to come to England, and take upon her the title and dignity of queen.., % They represented to her how injurious her reparation might be to the in terelts of her son, and that for (lighter reafohs the legitimacy of James Steuart the second son had been impeached j but she was ho. nest enough to despise all their so phistry; she did not pretend to conceal the defeftation she felt for ti.eu 1..\ u - nor would she do £N UMBER 37. ti
