Witunon, OCT. 2fl.—The Royal Lodge now exhibits a daily decrease of those rural attractions which combine during the summer season, to render it so desirable a retreat. The autumnal tints which the varying foliage of the plantations in the Great Park presented at the commencement of the present month, are rapidly giving way to the sombre hue of Novem ber, while the falling leaves thickly strew the sequestered rides. 'Lis MAJEsTY, however, does not relinquish his daily exercise, which experience has proved to be so conducive to his health ; and under his tasteful direction, improvements still continuo to be made in the more retired parts of the Great Park. A num ber of roads have been completed in different directions, which for years have been lying waste ; and thus combining ornament with utility, another benefit is added to t h e man y which Wind sor has derived from the residence of its Sovereign. THE FAln.—Vesterday, at twelve o'clock, the announce ment of our October Fair was made by the Magistrates, and the usual scene of din and bustle took place. The weather being more favourable than usually happens on this occasion, the early part of the fair was graced by the presence of the fairest inhabitants, either to witness the travelling exhibitions of wonder, or present a fairing to their friends. In the even ing, 1, the company became more numerous, and less select ; country visitors tumbled in by wholesale. The Fair taking place in the High-street, it required no small degree of exertion and perseverance to penetrate the dense crowd (who excited by the wonders of the animal creation, which were exhibited by two rival menageries, or attracted by the tempting display of fancy articles presented in a long line of booths) blocked up every avenue. Early in the evening, however, the town began to resume its usual state of quietude, and before eleven o'clock, the immense crowd had entirely dispersed, without, we aro happy to state, the slightest tumult or dis order.

ANECDOTE or ittinws.—(From Me l'a;slry Advertier.) —The followinji anecdote of the Ayrshire Bard is, we believe, genuine, and hitherto unpublished. On a visit to a certain sea port town in this country, Burns entered into a warm discussion on religions topics with a person named Andrew Turner, who was famed for Deistical principles, anti what John Bunyan would have denominated an " ill favoured" countenance. — The Poet was worsted in the tegument, at which he felt nettled, and vented his spleen in the following impromptu : It happened Once upon a time, The de'il got stuff to teak' a swine, And laid it in a corner • But after that he chang'd his plan, An' made it something like a man, An' ett'd it Andrew Turner. An anecdote is related of General °TWAT who had been many years in the service with the rank of Co:- lonel, during which time several junior Colonels had got regi ments over his head. His friends frequently entreated him to state his services, and to petition the KING (GEORGE II.); he resisted their importunities for a considerable time but being at length prevailed upon, he desired the Chaplain of the regi ment he served in to draw up a petition, which being done and sent to the Colonel, he took notice that it conclud ed with the words " and your petitioner shall ever pray." He sent for the Chaplain, and told him that he had made a mistake, and imagined he was presenting a petition for himself by the man ner in which he had concluded it. He desired it to be altered, and insisted that the word pray was unfit to come from an offi cer. It was to no purpose that lie was informed of the usual mode of drawing the prayer of all a uph n i d s opinion t u i t p i o o n n e t r h a l t t e e v r e , r b j u t r t petitions; he would not give h in t. sl , sted H i e t s w h o o k ul t d he ru p n e t t l i i t u io s n i to Court, and presented it to the Elmo, who was amused with the novelt of the conclusion, and the honest bluntness ess of t he Offi I cer. n the course of a few weeks a regiment became vacant which was given to OTWAY, in opposition to the Ministers, who had promised to provide for a friend possessing some in terest In Parliament. BALLOON ASCENT.—Extract of a private letter, dated Pongee, • Oct. 25:--" Mr. GREEN having announced his in tention of ascending from the fortifications of this place on Saturday, the 16th inst., wind and weather permitting, there was a great assemblage of persons collected to gratify their cu riosity, but, notwithstanding every preparation was made, the Committee were of opinion that it would be highly danger ous to make the attempt, owing to the continuance of the high wind, and particularly its blowin g from the nort hward, which must have wafted the balloon over the British Chan nel, to the imminent risk of the life of the aeronaut. The populace behaved with becoming moderation on the occasion, and nothing like that riotous disposition with which similar disappointments have been attended in other places was shown here. Mr. Green, auxious that the public should not be disap . pointed again, made known his intention o f makin g the at tempt this day at two o'clock, when, the weathe r bein g good, and the wind blowing from the south-west, on the third gun being fired, a large concourse of persons had the gratification of witnessing the ascent of the balloon, in a very . gradual and majeatic style, to the height of about half a mile, when it continued to sail in a N.E. direction, and was in sight fur 26 minutes, at which time it disappeared in a distant cloud, having passed over Langstone-harbour and Havant, towards Midhurst. I%lr. Green was accompanied in his aerial excursion by a gentleman whose name we could not learn, but who we understand is an officer of the engineers. We trust that this attempt, commencing un. der such favourable auspices, will not have so lamentable a ter mination as has lately attended similar efforts. The Mends of the travellers are anxiously waiting to hear of their sans landing on terra firma." Tug LOST PEDIGREE. ---A gentleman well known on the turf, once purchased a horse, when in Dublin, of an Irish dealer, of a very famous breed. On returning from Ireland, he found, that by accident, he had lost the pedigree, upon which he wrote off instantly for another copy, to which the dealer, in his anxiety to oblige him, replied,—" That, in deed, he was sorry it was lost, because he had no copy ttf it, but he would send him another as good." A singular fact in geology has been this week disclosed while boring for soft water atilte foundry of Messrs. Cawood, at Leeds. For the first 30 ythe boring irons were not affected in any manner out of the usual way ; beyond that point they became possessed of a highly m a g netic p ower, which continued till the irons had penetrated to the depth of 60 yards ; afterwards the attraction ceased, and the boring is now pro ceeding without any effect being protluced upon the iron out of the ordinary war. POETRY. A MOTHER'S LAMENT pr an INFANT DAWVITIL (!runs Ackermann's Christmas Present, Forget 111 e :Vat.) I lov'd thee, daughter of my heart ! Sarah, I lov'd thee dearly ; And though we only meet to part, How sweetly—how severely. Nor life, nor death, can sever,. Mother and babe for ever. Thy days, my little one, were few; . An angel's morning visit, That came and vanished with the dew, 'Twas here—'tis gone—where Is it ; Yet did'st thou leave behind thee A clue for love to find thee. The eye, the lip, the cheek, the brow, The hands stretch'd forth with gladness; All life, joy, rapture, beauty now, Then dash'il with infant sadness; Till, bright'ning with transition, Beturn'd the fairy vision. Where are they now ?—those smiles, tttuse tears — Thy mother's darling treasure ; She sees them still, and still she hears Thy tones of pain and pleasure. To her quick pulse revealing Unutterable feeling. Misled in a moment on her breast, Life at the well spring drinking Then cradled on her lap to rest, In rosy slumber sinking. Thy dreams—no thought can guess therm-- And mine no tongue express them. For then this waking eye could see In many a vain vagary, The things that never were to be—. Imaginations airy. Fond hopes which mothers cherish, Like still-born babes, to perish. Mine perisli'd on thine early bier, Now chang'd to forms snore gloriosa; They flourish in a higher sphere, O'er time and death victorious. Yet would these arms have claim'd thee, And long from lleav'n detain'd thee. Sarah, my last, my youngest love— The crown of every other, Though thou art burn again above, 1 only am thy mother. Nor will affection let me Believe thou can'st forget me. Then, thou in Ileav'n, and I on earth. May this one hope delight us, That thou wilt hail my second birth, When death shall reunite us, Where worlds no more can sever, Parents and child for ever. THE.TIIEATREA. D lIURY LANK.— The Marriage of Figaro was re* I. presented again last night. Miss nA Duos', sup ported by the encouragement which she received on the former night, displayed wore spirit iu the part of Susanna, and her musical powers also appeared to greaser advantage. She is likely to prove e good acquisition. 11 AY MAU K HAMBLIN resumed the part of Hamlet last night, and having evidently profited by the liberal criticism which his first performance excited, gave a more correct and animated support to the princely Dane, .than he had shewn on the former occasion. rlhero wits no longer a settled scowl upon his face, but his features varied in expression according to tile respective passages in the part. Mr. Junmsom who was treated with such illiberal levity on Sa turday, resigned the part of Laertes to a Mr. ParrcuAnn from the Edinburgh, Stage, who ac quitted himself to the satisfaction of the audience. DElt Fiti ENCOUTZ.----1t appears to be Oa opi-1 nion of the best musical judges that the music of this piece has no such extraordinary excellence per se, us can account for its remarkahl, success, but that its chief merit is its admirable adapta tion to the Drama, in the Overture as well as in all the rest of the composition. Mrs. 141'Gt13110N, the daughter of the late respectable literary veteran, Mr. WILLIAM WOO DVALL, is now an established Performer at Liverpool, where her talents and charactlir are deservedly held in high esteem. The Dublin Theatre opened on Saturday last, under the management of Mr. Anuovr, who on the occasion performed the part of Charley in the School fur Scandal. MR. KEAN. The following extract of a letter, dated " Liverpool, Roth October, 18'24," has been sent to us by n Correspondent : " A paragraph having appeared in one of the London Even. ing Papers, stating that linaw, on his appearance here the other night after four years absence, met with great dirappro bation, and was received with cries of " Off, qr," &c. I beg to state the facts as they really occurred, and they will, I think, prove that lie has reason to be quite satisfied with his reception. Although he offended the audience on a former occasion, by telling them (pretty nearly what JOHN KEMILE said, by the bye, when he took his leave of us) that they had not greeted him so warmly as he was used to elsewhere, and that he hoped others would please them better, yet the Managers were in. duced to offer him such terms, I understand, as made him resolve to venture once more upon the Liverpool Boards. His first appearance was hailed with very great applause, mixed with partial disapprobation, soon drowned, however, by the majority of a crowded house, determined, as it appeared, to welcome great talent back again. Every night of his per formance has been a rich harvest for the Managers, and his benefit literally crammed the Theatre; so that his popularity may be fairly said to be as great as ever, and I really think he is much improved since I saw him last. He performed last night at Manchester to such an overflow as would have filled the house if it had been nearly half as large again, and I am convinced that if he could have played here another week his attraction would have increased with every successive per. formance. I deem it hut an, act of justice to such a genius as KEAN' to state thus much, and to assure you that the disappro bation on his first night was trifling indeed, when compared with the rapturous ap_plattse he received from much the greater pert of the audience." , THE CostET.—The new Comet, which is in teresting only to those who make use of the telescdpe, was on the 26th of August, in the constellation Hercules, right ascen. 242. N. decl. 40. and 6 degrees west of the bright Nebula, in the girdle of HerCflkS ; a few days afterwards it was observed near the right leg of Hercules, right ascen. 235. N. decl. 47. in which part of the Heavens it crossed the path of the Comet o fl January last. Its motion is retrograde, or contrary to the order of the zodiacal signs, and slow in comparison to the astonishing velocity of the former Comet. •It has only advanced through the Heavens 27 degrees since the 26th of August. This apps. rently slow motion may arise from its inconceivable distance from the earth. When examined with a telescope, it appears like a faint nebula, but if the atmosphere be clear, with a low power and sufficient light, it may be distinctly seen soon a f ter sun -set, and throughout the night, being only 32 degrees from Polaris. It does not set. Its direction is towards the northern point in Ursa Major, and as it does not appear to become less luminous, it is probable it may be observed for a considerable time. On Saturday night, ten o'clock, it was situated between the right hand of Bootes and the tail of Drags, right ascen. 213. N. deel. 68. We hear that Colonel FREDERICK FITZOL4- RENCE, the young soldier whose g a ll antr y wa s 3 0 conspicuous on the night of the Cato-street trea son, is to offer himself on the independent inte rest at Dover,on the dissolution of Parliament.— ( Kentish Gazette.)

Pass being on her seat in an old quarry in the breast of the mountain, and hearing the noise of her followers , immediately jumpe d out, when all the savage soul of game was up at once. Atter a circuitous round or too near her home, she bounded down upon the plain, leay. ing the dogs at a considerable distance behind, and clearing the hedges and ditches with astonishing swiftness, she reach ed the river Eden, where she swam over, and shaped her course towards Egremont, into which she came, and running down the street a considerable distance, she entered the humble portico of a shoemaker, from whence she soon bounded Out, and went to the other side of the street, made her way, with much difficulty, into a meadow ; the dogs followed soon after, and the chase was excellent, and after running a long tints, she was obliged at last to resign herself to her staunch pursuers, which surrounded her in a little valley near Middle Town.— ( Cumberland Packet, Oct Ill.)

A BIDE. . a l ai r e en: ika:rslr exc e llentsatnerd Never was a fight looked forward to with more interest than the present. On the one I►and the friends of Martin rely on his tried courage and manly generalship in many battles of great celebrity, and on the other side the sanguine admirers of Burn build their hopes on his youth, activity, and known de termination—he is already a great favourite with the Fancy, and has a longing eye to the championship on some fortunate but future day. He is indeed a very aspiring youth, setting aside the idle but natural chaffing of his kind uncle Old Ben, who has good reason to be proud of his young protege. The morning was ushered in very stormily and we . , to the great annoyance of the road takers. But their curiosity to wit ness a prime battle between two such men overcame all wet scruples, and the roads from London, Windsor, &c. and every avenue, by.lane, w ood, moor, and moun- Basingstoke, min poured the converging crowds to one interesting focus, lof b rave: men, sharp men, idle men, and fiat men—barouche, • dray, gig, and donkey cart, all forming a motley ring to fill the eye of wonder. So intense is the interest created by this fight, that two Gentlemen have posted all the way from Glasgow to behold it. Ben Burn, Tom Oliver, and the fight ing int went down to Hampton on Monday night, at which place Martin had been training, and stept at the Bell Inn. Jem Burn slept at the NVltite Lion—he is in excellent health, high spirits, and full of promise. He stands five feet ten inches and a half high, aged 20, and looks remarkably well. He weighs eleven stone five pounds; when he fiils out, in a year or two, he will he a powerful fellow. He is extremely cautious l i nwb) n oluhtil l ty: cond u ct , t r i lnho s edoefs::, .rvamivniigraiul iiccecav al c ad e i—dlai aase a as i n t: ovw d f anabnti fighting eley:rnhr: pitches!n w tnwi tn s eeiigei n i rneoe prize tweci thel was s a e a n timtht; . c atae e loknier nresc a nyi w s 20 years old, five feet nine Inches high, weighs eleven stone ten The morning cleared up by nine o'cl ' ock, and about ten the admirers, set out in high glee for the field of battle, in the vici nity yesterday se'nnight. The odds varied in favour of Burn, but the A agistrate interfered, and the ground fi xed on was at Lalehatn, a village two miles from Staines. No sooner was the ring formed than a Magistrate, Sir JOUX GIBBON, of Stanway, appeared, and told the milling coves that there should be no fi ght there. However, at three minutes past one o'clock, Jem Burn came into the ring with his uncle, Old Ben, and tuking off his hat said—" Gentlemen, I non here ready to fight ; it - Martin does not chose to appear, I claim the money."—(Bravo and ap plause.)
