GEORGE ROBINS begs to intimate -LY -It • to the Public, that in consequence of this Ancient and Respectable Repository being doomed (by means of the provisions of an Act of Parliament for Improving the Strand) to. be immediately ."rased to the ground," ,Mr. Clarke, the Proprietor of Exeter 'Change, has directed him TO SELL BY PUBLIC AUCTION, AND WITHOUT THE LEAST RESERVE, THIS DAY, the 23d of April, and Fourteen fol lowing days, (Sundays excepted) at Twelve o'clock, the unusually Extensive and Valuable Stock which for so many years has been the subject of admiration and astonish ment to the multitudinous persons who have so frequently congregated at • THE ANCIENT and RESPECTABLE ESTABLISH MENT of EXETER 'CHANGE. It has been proverbial for a lengthened period, and was the pride of the late respected and present proprietor, that the variety in this exhibition (infinitely surpassing any other in this great metropolis) was so great, that it was hardly possible to inquire for any thing, either useful or ornamental, that could not be on the instant provided there. The immense wealth which was the necessary consequence of such an - extensive trade is mainly to be attributed to the proprietor's adopting from the commencement the good (but old fashioned) notion of having every thing of the best description. The following is necessarily a brief out line of the very great variety and excellence which will be found conspicuous in this collection. • THE HARNESS AND SADDLERY DEPART- MENTS include 16 sets of Carriage, Stanhope, Poney, and Phae ton Harness, handsomely mounted ; 50 Military, Hunting, and Side Saddles; three dozen Bridles, Field Officers' Bridles and Bitts; about 30 suits of Horse Clothing of every description ; a great variety of Bitts, Stirrups, and Brake tackle; four dozen Mexican Bitts and Spurs; plated and tinned, suitable for that country; Regulation Bitts for the different servic.s ; two Curricle Bars and Saddles, elegantly mounted ; Stable Head Collars and Stable articles ; 100 Riding, Hunting, Carriage, and Chaise Whipi; 300 pair Jockey and Heel-spurs. IN THE TRAVELLING AND CAMP EQUIPAGES, OF GREAT INGENUITY, AND NOVEL IN THEIR APPLICATION, Will be found twenty-four Iron Bedsteads and Bedding; Sea Cots ; Camel and Bullock Trunks ; Portable Chests of Drawers, Wash Stands, and Chairs, on the most improved principles; Canteens and Camp Equipages, fitted up coin plete ; Mahogany and Rosewood Portable Desks, Dressing Cases, Tea Chests,' Caddies, and Work Boxes ; Writing and. Dressing Cases; Trunks and Portmanteaus. IN THE MILITARY AND SPORTING GOODS Are eighty Regulation Swords, for the Army, Navy, and East India Company ; Military and Naval Belts, Epaulettes, Officers' Sashes, Mexican Mounts, Dress and Undress Military Caps ; a single Gun, by Joseph Manton ; and vary description of sporting articles. THE CUTLERY Includes 100 sets of best Town-trade Ivory, Bone, and Horn Table Knives and Forks ; 250 sets of Country-made ditto ; an iinmense assortment of Pen and Sporting Knives, Razors, Scissors, Corkscrews, Brushes of every description ; Combs ; Gentlemen's Tool Chests and Tools. THE ELEGANT JEWELLERY comprises much of variety and value' in rings set with various Stones, Brooches, Ear-rings, Lockets, Neck Chains, Pins, Coral Necklaces; twenty gold and silver Watches, Chains, Seals and Keys ; liver and other Snuff Boxes ; and a variety of Gilt Jewellery. IN THE PLATE AND PLATED ARTICLES Will be found every thing requisite for the Sideboard in useful and ornamental articles; Inkstands; Table and Dessert Spoons and Forks and Ladles ; mounted Stone Jugs and Cups. THE MISCELLANEOUS COLLECTION Consisting of elegant French Table Lamps ; Bronze Tea and Coffee Urns ; sets of Canteen Dishes, and Soup Tureens ; Elegant Papier and Japanned Tea Trays and Waiters; ReaJing Lumps; Dressing and Cash Boxes; Backgammon, Chess, Draft, and Cribbage Boards ; Baga telle ditto; a variety of Brass Locks for Trunks, Portable Medicine and Liquor Chests; Copying Machines • Paper Cases : Lanthorns and Lampe ; 100 Silk and Machines; Umbrellas ; 40 Silk Parasols ; very beautiful Canes; several dozen Walking Sticks ; Bibles and Prayer Books; Hindos tan and Military Books ; and other articles too numer ous to particularize. - - Also the capital mahogany glazed Show Ca.es, Jewel. lery ditto, Counters and Fittings. The whole may be viewed, and Catalogues had, at Is. each, at Exeter 'Change, and in Covent Garden. THE ARMY. Lieutenant-General Sir Thomas Bradford, K.C.B. will be appointed Colonel of the 30th Foot, vice Lieut.-Gen. Montgomerie, dec. Major-General Sir John Keane, K.C.B. will be ap pointed Colonel of the 94th Regiment of Infantry, vice Sir T. Bradford, transferred to the 30th Foot. Six troops of the Fourth (Irish) Dragoon Guards, un der the command of Colonel Ross, passed through Bristol, on their route from Exeter to York, during this week.— The regiment, which presents a remarkably fine-looking body of men, h'td been stationed at Exeter nearly a twelvemonth. A forgery has lately been committed by a clerk in the Custom-house. It appears on inquiry, that it was customary for the clerk to fill up the cheques, and then take them to the Receiver-General for his signature, who signed them as a matter of course. The cheque in ques tion was for 1,9001. After the clerk had obtained the signature, it seems he went to the Bankers, and received two notes for five hundred pounds each, and nine hundred sovereigns. He shortly after, we understand, sent a friend, who premed sovereigns for one of the notes ; and then, sufficient time having elapsed to lull suspicion, he went himself with the other and demanded gold, which was given to him. It is as yet not known to what place he has fled, but every exertion is being made to discover his retreat. A letter from Neufchateau (Luxemburg) states, that during the winter a number of wolves committed great depredations in the villages of Ardennes, and espe cially in the environs of St. Hubert. Died, at Newport, Isle of Wight, on Tues day, the 14th. inst. Master G. BUCKLEY, aged 14. His death was occasioned by a bleeding at the nose for two or three days, which no means could stop. ` He was son of the late Captain BUCKLEY, who fell at the 'battle of Waterloo. CHINESE COURIERS.—At certain distances along ithe roads and canals in China, say at intervals of two or three miles, are placed square buildings, with a •scieih or sentry-box attached to them, where a soldier is seen on duty ; and, should any tumult or breach of the peace occur, he pounces down, sans cer(!monie, on the offender. The peculiar province of these sentries is to act the part of couriers; for there is no other sort of posts in China, besides that dependent upon these runners ; they transport the ministerial despatches from one station to the other, and convey letters from Pekin to Canton in twelve days, which gives a rate of fifty leagues per day.—,elthen.

C. ropes and stakes were erected upon a dry piece of ground by Oliver and Fogo, and the men came in bang-up style to the outer ring, at ten minutes to one o'clock. Perkins (the Coventry butcher) was first to doff his castor in the ring; he was attended by Ned Stockman and Homer. The challenge was soon answered by Preston (ttie Birmingham Pet), who was looked after by 'Philip Sampson and Welch Davies. The work of peeling having been performed, at four minutes to one both pugilists appeared at the scratch, 7 to 4 and 2 to 1 on Preston.—Preston weighed 11 stone 3lbs., and Perkins 12 stone. Round 1. Nothing could exceed the beautiful condition of Preston ; he looked the picture of health, and the smile of confidence beamed upon his countenance. He came up to his man, shook hands, arid in the twinkling of an eye was in a delightful fighting attitude. Perkins looked equally confident, smiled, and nodded at his friends. He set-to rather awkwardly, exposing himself at all points, and twisting his arms round. Preston made play, but no mischief. Perkins then ran in, and before Pres ton could recover himself from the alteration pro duced in his position in making the first play, he was grassed.—Loud shouts for the Coventry Boy. and the odds immediately changed from 2 to 1 to 5 to 4. This round occupied exactly 40 seconds. 2. Perkins appeared determined not to lose time, and to act upon the bustling system, and Preston evinced that he was ready to receive and job him. The former shot out with his right and left, but both were neatly stopped by the Pet. The Co ventry boy, however, was not to be denied, and went in, but was received with a flush hit from the left hand of Preston, which drew first blood. The latter was nevertheless thrown. 3. By the advice of Sampson, Preston ,dropped his arms a trifle, thereby not only making his posi tion one of the most elegant we ever saw, but ready at every point for the reception of his antagonist. At this moment Perkins was twirling his arms about in so peculiar a manner that we can only compare them to the wings of a windmill, when in full sail. At last, when his arms had gone round the certain number of times, he came within distance, and let out with both, but the Pet breaking ground, to a nicety avoided the intended visitation, and in return jobbed the butcher, and followed him until a close ensued, which terminated with a fall, Perkins being the undermost. 2 to 1 on Preston. • 4. Perkins all alive, bored in, napped pepper, but continued to throw his man. .5. This was a most admirable round. Sampson, in the course of his instructions, recommended his man (Preston) to make up to the butcher's nob and wait upon it with a chopper, and we will venture to assert, that no master ever saw his orders so readily executed, for the pupil made Phil's favourite dodge, put the ribbon lad off his guard, slapped out with terrific force, and lodged his appendage of digits fairly on the snuff receptacle, producing a current of claret, which flowed down his index in copious - streams., This movement seemed to create a de gree of alarm and consequent wildness in Perkins, which had not before displayed itself. He ran in like a bull-dog, but napped it again, and the Pet closing, managed to circumvent the neck of his op ponent with his left arm, commenced a " chancery suit," and after having set forth, at same length, many forcible and convincing arguments as to the infallibility of his antagonist's case, threw him most tremendously. The shouts for Preston were here almost astounding; indeed, we should be induced to suppose that the greater part of the lookers-on were blessed with double lungs. The betting changed to five to one on Preston. 6. When the men came up, the effects of the last round were strongly developed on the phiz of Per kins ; and his second, the " Lively Kid," favoured the audience with no inconsiderable quantity of chaff, with the hopes of diverting the attention of his op ponent, but it was no go. " All gammon—won't 'fit, my man," said Phil, "he's awake to your tricks, Ned." The position in the argamenbant ad hominenz which Sampson had taken, was fully corroborated by the steadiness of Preston, who was, as one of the spectators said, " as tool es a cowkumber," and appeared to pay less attention to what was passing in the way of discussion, than any man we ever saw. Indeed, his dazzlers were not to be drawn from their set upon his man. The teazers Perkins had received in the last round seemed to have caused an abatement in his rushing inclination ; but the Pet, being aware that he had reduced the bulk of opponent, as far as regarded strength, nearly to his own, went in, and very quietly put in a rattler with_ his left upon the right eye of his adversary, drove him to the ropes, again put his nob into Chancery, and followed up his suit in admirable style. Per kins, howel'er, eventually got down, pulling the Brummagem upon him. Ten to one on Preston. 7. Perkins retreated, the Pet cautiously follow ing until he had got him into a corner, when he placed two severe hits, which told tales. Perkins slipped, and Preston caught him against the ropes, putting his head into a dangerous position; but the brave fellow, in the most generous manner, refused to hit him, and, throwing his arms up, let Perkins fall, whilst he himself walked away.—(Loud cries of " Bravo, bravo, Preston.") 8. Perkins now had recourse to the rushing-in system, but was met with wonderful precision by a well-directed blow ou the os-frontis. The Pet then withdrew, hit him again, and closing, threw Perkins heavily. 20 to lon Preston. 9. This was a tremendous round, so far as pu nishment was concerned. Perkins appeared to have determined that his head should be turned to the purpose of a chopping-block--in he went head fore most. The Pet met him with one of the severest blows we ever saw delivered between the " organs of light," then closed, and fibbed away till he was tired, and Perkins went down, all but done. A guinea to a shilling on the Pet., 10. Perkins, truly game, came up with spirit, and met with severe punishment, and went down amidst cries of " Take him away" from all quarters. 11. Same as last. 12. In this round Perkins made a desperate effort, but it was of no use, nature had already been too closely Pres-sed, and Preston hit him down with two heavy conkers. The Pet showed no signs of distress. 13. Perkins came up a most pitiable object, the cries of " take him away" becoming louder and louder; but his game would not yield to the judg ment of the spectators, and he was anxious to prove that he would not give in so long as the remotest chance existed of a lucky hit giving him an opportu nity of coming off the conqueror. tie stood up, but could not do—" not nothing"—he received a few additional favours from the Pet, who eventually sent him down all of a heap; and when time was called, worn out nature compelled his seconds to acknow ledge that he was done. REMARKS. The fight lasted fifteen minutes. Better game was never displayed, but Perkins's qualifications cannot be put in competition with those of the victor. 'With a country novice, however, he may prove a very troublesome customer, as he has a dangerous right-handed hit, and can throw well, but we certainly recommend him never again to fight a scientific pugilist. Of Preston we cannot speak in terms of too high praise. He fought man fully, hit terrifically, stopped beautifully, and scorned to take the least advantage, although numerous op portunities occurred to him of delivering punish ment at times which the rules of boxing would have entitled him to, but which he most nobly re fused to embrace. When it is taken into considera tion that Preston is not 19 years of age—has never been beaten, and has now won a fight without the least mark, and beaten a man a stone heavier than himself—a man who has always himself been con queror, a very game man, and a hard hitter, we may truly say, that he who beats the Brummagem Pet must be nothing but an out and outer. We sin cerely hope he will take his tutor's (Arthur Mat thewson's) advice=-he cannot have a better. If he will, and take care of " Lushington," and his naughty " dickey birds," he will become a first rater. The Birmingham Pet and the Oxford Pet would make a capital fight. Oliver, Fego, and Stockman, take a joint benefit on Thursday next, at Birmingham. SOUTH AMERICAN TRADE. The following Memorial has been submitted, we understand, to his Majesty's Government, after having been signed by the most respectable parties connected with the South American trade. Other Memorials of a similar nature are, as we are in formed, in progress of signature at Liverpool, Glas gow, and every other commercial port and city. Similar representations are making in France,' in Holland, and in all the European commercial com munities, to their respective Governments:— "TO THE RIGHT HON. THE EARL OF ABERDEEN, ONE OF HIS MAJESTY ' S PRINCIPAL SECRETARIES OF STATE &C. &C. &C. " London, March 18. " My Lord,—We take the liberty, as Merchants, Ship-owners. and others connected with the Re publics of Mexico, Colombia, Buenos Ayres, Chili, and Peru, respectfully to draw your Lordship's at tention to a subject which humbly appears to us to deserve the consideration of his Majesty's Govern ment. " For the last 20 years a state of warfare has been unceasingly maintained between the King of Spain and the countries just mentioned, formerly subject to the dominion of the Spanish Crown. " During a large portion of the latter part of this period the authority of the King of Spain through out those countries has been wholly extinct, both in form and substance. No portion of territory, how ever small, remains in his possession—not a single soldier in his service, nor any person whatever, own ing or sustaining his dominion in any one of those States. " Notwithstanding the notoriously long continu ance of this state of things, a state of hostility con tinues to prevail on both sides, most injurious in its consequences to all commercial pursuits. " Since the establishment of the independence of these several States, and the recognition of three of them by his Majesty's Government, British subjects have entered into large transactions with them in the export of British manufactures, in the forming of extensive commercial and milling establishments there, and in financial operations. " These undertakings do not, at the present mo ment, involve a capital of l'ess than 20,000,0001. sterling. They were entered into in the reasonable expectation that the entire extinction of Spanish au thority in those countries would be followed by a recognition of their independence on the part of the Crown of Spain, and in the cessation of hostilities. " No such event, however, has taken place, and the consequence is, that the intercourse with that part of the. world is exposed to all the inconve niences invariably attendant upon the continuance of a state of warfare. These evils consist in the continuance of privateering, and all the irregulari ties to which that system of warfare gives rise, ►rot the least of which has been the frequent practice of the crime of piracy—the keeping up throughout those countries a large military force, pressing hea vily upon the revenues of the several states—de priving them of the advantage of manual labour in countries where population is but thinly scattered— sustaining the importance of military chiefs, and rens derrag the army the constant object ,of intrigue for factious purposes; and,.. in short, pre - Serving all tire elements of. 'an unsettled and unimproving state of society. Rumours are continually pi opag.eetl wrong their coasts of Spanish invasion, which, although groundless, greatlyinterriipt the peaceful pursui't's of industry and commerce, and, , tinder the nrsesure . of t, mporary alarm, lead to an arbitrary and unavoidably oppressive eirercise of authority. " If there had been the slightest symptom of a disposition on the part of these countries . to return to their allegiance to the Spanish Crown, it would be presumpttiotts in us to offer any observations to his Majesty's Government upon the subject; but so far from this being the case, it is notorious that the recent commotion in one of the most powerful of these States was mainly produced by the cir cumstance of the law which had been passed for the entire expulsion of the Spaniards not baiting' been carried into complete effect by the Government. " If, when the Crown of Spain held possession of every fortress throughout those several countries, sustained by the presence there of a powerful body of troops, it was unable to maintain its dominion, it does not seerti unreasonable to infer the utter- im possibility of its ever regaining it. • " We are aware of the diffidence with which i becomes merchants, in the furtherance of their coot mercial undertakings, to presume to offer any sug gestions to his Majesty's Government ori a question of foreign policy ; but we trust we shall be. found warranted by the circumstances we have thus Liter' the liberty to state, in submitting to his Majesty's Government the expediency' of interposing its friendly offices and counsel with the Court of Spain to induce that Court to lint an end to the ;miseries of this long-protracted and fruitless warfare, which can now have no other object, as regards the coun tries against withnri it is directed, than to retard their internal advancement ond improvement ; and, as regards Spain, to deprive it - of a portion of that commercial intercourse with them, which is now open to the other nations of Europe. We have the honour to be, my Lord, " Your Lordship's faithful servants." NAPOLEON'S FAMILY. Napoleon's mother (or, as she was called, Madame Mere) spends her winter at Rome, and her summer in Albano. She is constantly oc cupied in works of charity, piety, and benefi cence, and leads a very retired life. Strangers are seldom admitted to her society ; °illy , her brother, Cardinal Fesch, pays her daily Yizits. The cardinal employs the remainder of his time in the performance of the duties of his office and holy functions. Neither of them possesses more than a middling fortune ; Madame has bestowed a great portion of her's upon her family and the poor ; and the Cardinal is dependent on the lowance of the Pope, and the sale of his gallery of pictures, which he parts with one by one. Count Survilliers (Joseph, the Ex-King of Spain) . has become a citizen of the United States of America since 1814, (query 1815) and applies himself there to agriculture on a large scale. His eldest daughter, Zenaide, has married his nephew, Prince Musignano (the son of Lucien) ; and his younger daughter, Charlotte, married another of his nephews, Charles, the son of Louis (the Ex-King of Holland), who, if we mistake not, is author of the American Ornithology. Both these young couples have left America, and settled at Florence, in order to be nearer to their mother, the Countess Survilliers, As for Count de Saint Leu (Louis), the state of his health, which continues to be unfavourable, does not prevent his principally devoting himself to literary occupation. He -had purchased, out of his private fortune, several estates in Holland, chiefly in the vicinity of Haarlam ; but, after the fall of Napoleon, these were sequestrated, and never restored to him. His consort, Hortensia, the daughter of Josephine, passes the winter in Rome, and, for some time past, she was in the habit of spending part of her time at her beautiful country seat at Aremberg, on the banks of the Bovensea (the Lacus Lemanus), in Switzerland. The Prince de Canino (Lu cien) has this long time resided at Rome, and on the property from which he derives his title. In the year 1827, he and his family inhabited the small town of Smigaglia, near Ancona. He has lost the greatest part of his fortune by un successful speculation, and sold even his palace at Rome, to his brother, the Prince de Mont fort (Jerome). —One of his daughters (the same whose hand King Ferdinand of Spain solicited when Prince of Asturia) married Prince Ga briell ; another married Lord Stuart. The Prince de Montfort (Jerome, ex-king of Westphalia) spends the summer in the marshes near Ancona, and the winter in his palace at Rome. His union with the Princess Catherine, the sister of the present King of Wurtemberg, and niece to the Emperor of Russia, renders his house the rendezvous of all strangers of distinction from the north who visit Italy. The Russian and Wurtemberg Ambassadors are never absent from the Prince's parties. His children are educated at the College of Siena. The young Princess . Eliza, daughter of the Princess Borghese, mar ried, after her mother's death, the son of an Ita lian nobleman, the richest proprietor at Ancona. She is very lively and witty, and is said to bear the strongest resemblance to NaFoleon. Her father, Prince Felix Bacchiochi, resides at Bo logna. He is rich and respected. Owing to political considerations, the Countess Lepano (Madame Murat, ex-Queen of Naples) has not yet been able to obtain permission to join her relations in Italy ; she, therefore, resides in Aus tria. Her eldest daughter married the Marchese Popoli, a nobleman of Bologna, and her youngest sister Count Rasponi. Achilles, her eldest son, went to Florida, where he bought much landed property. Lucien, the youngest, is in South America. Should more buildings, as is talked of, be al lowed to be erected round the Regent's Pa, k, we doubt how long that present delightful area will be considered as the lungs of London. Part of the new buildings at the British Mu seum are said to be suffering from the inroads of the wea ther, owing to the unfinished state in which they have been allowed to remain. AMERICAN NANY.—The Government of the United States did not bestow any serious attention upon the increase of its maritime power until the year 1915. The greatest number of vessels in the public ser vice during the revolution did not exceed twenty-five, of which there were five frigates of 32. guns, twelve ships mounting from 24 to 28 gems, and eight front 10 to 16 guns. The Act of the 29th of April, 1816, appropriated an annual sum of one million of dollars to the increase of the naval force ; but, in 1820, this appropriation was reduced to five hundred thousand doll's a-year._- 4 thenceum.
