It being the first Sunday in the month, the Mayor and Corporation attended in their robes. A numerous assemblage of the neighbouring Nobility, Gentry, &c. were collected on the Terrace in the evening. The belie{ of the first life guards attended, and played for two hours, which is their usual practice both on Sundays and Thursdays. LEAMINGTON, SErrgitsza 1. full We continue vaey of company, which is ac counted for, in addition to the attractions of the place, by the approaching Warwick Races. The horses which are to run were entered at the War wick Arms Ina last night. Last night the Dowager Duchess of Rutland patronised the play of Kenilworth, which attracted a crowded audience. The Duke of Grafton, Ladies Fitzroy, Lord Fitzroy, and most of the no. bility here graced the boxes in compliment to the Duchess. Her Grace's play-bills were printed on white wain. in imitation of those prepared for the gisig when his Majesty honours a theatre with his presence. To-morrow the Duke of Grafton will patronise the play of the Earl of Essex, which character is to be sustained by Mr. Betty. An attempt has been made to raise a subscription for a Leamington race, to take place on the War. wick race-course, on the day after the Warwick races, but the necessary sum could not be raised in time, till the gentlemen who have the management of the Warwick races had finally finished their arrangements. During the residence of the Duchess of Glouces. ter and the Princess Augusta here, they did not attend the assemblies or the theatre ; the reason as signed was, the Royal Duchsss's health would not permit her to go into hot rooms, where there were large assemblies of people. When the Princes' Augusta was solicited to go or to attend any place, she answered, that she had come here to attend her beloved sister ; she therefore considered herself quite at her disposal. her Royal Highness's con• duct would be regulated by her sister's. Their Royal Highnesses commanded plays, and paid the saute as if they had honoured the theatre with their presence, and subscribed liberally to every thing. The Royal Pump Rocis, Baths, and Prome nade Gardens are said to have cost upwards of 10.0001. There are several other spas or pump rooms and baths fitted up in a neat and handsome style, which are all supported by subscriptions; but the original pump and well, where the virtues of the water were first discovered, are enclosed with a stone building, erected by the Earl of Aylesford, as Lord of the Manor of Leamington, at hisown expense, and, in his great liberality, has refused all attempts to purchase it of lain, to make a property of it, being determined that as it is a remedy produced by nature for the recovery and iniprovement of health, that the public at large shall enjoy the free benefit ; he also extends his public spirit by providing an elderly female to attend to supply visitors with the water, warm or cold, in glasses of various sizes; and she has a cottage to reside in, belonging to his Lordship, close to the well. Those who resort there to drink the water make her a voluntary gra tuity on their leaving. Some of the first characters resort to this well, uo doubt considering that the original must be the best. The generous Earl also erected a cold bath beton the spring, for the use of the poor, but the water, owing to the new bath since erected, not rising to its level, sod decreasing in quantity, the baths exclusively for the poor were of necessity laid aside, contrary to the laudable and generous intention of the Noble Earl. The Earl of &snot, by the special commend of his MAJIIITY, end in virtue of his office of Hero. ditary Lord High Constable of Scotland, rode span his MaJcsrv's right hand in the procession from Holyreud House to the Castle of Rdinborgh, on the 42d last.

His Royal Highness is expected to arrive here to-morrow evening, or early on Mon day morning; and at twelve o'clock on that day will proceed in grand mavonic procession to lay the foundation stone of the building intended for the Library of the Literary end Philosophical Society. h was originally contemplated, that hi* Royal High ness would afterwards dine with the craft, but the applications made to have the honour of showing their attachment to his Royal Highness by the principal inhabitants of the town, has caused the plan to be altered, and tot open public dinner will take place at the Assembly Room, one of the largest in the kingdom, which the Committee of Proprietors have kindly granted the use of ; and I venture to say, such is the enthusiastic feeling to. ward his Royal Highness, that if • room capable of holdieg double the number coeki be found, it would be filled.

A very handsome collection was made after the Gospel for the benefit of the establishment, both io I the gallery and in the body of the chapel. Pa LICE. GUILVIIALL. SHOP-LIFTING.

The hails of the year are so fu in utonisitiog quantity. flrio not recollect ever to have seen so great a profusion of cherries, apricots, plums, and pears, as we have already en. joyed. The prospect of • peach sad apple crop is very amt. Many et the peach tives,ohhe larger sorts, are so extremely loaded with the fruit, that the gardeners are forced to prop up nch large branch; notwithstanding which, the smaller branches will sometimes bead over and snap of with the weight of the peaches. As the fruit ripens, the braorbris will of coarse suffer greater injury. Our domestic spirits will, emarquiently, be its large quantities. The still will pour forth its voluminous fumes of peach mad apple bran dies; and Pomona will nuke op for the stint of the two last years. A more material article, the Indian corn, promises to be a good crop. The wheat harvest is short of an average crop, but the quality of the grain is eery good.
