PERSUASIVE APOLOGY.—A certain theatrical Manager, of no little celebrity, on the occasion of some public rejoicing by illuminations for a splendid victory, obtained by the British arms, in a fit of Patriotism broached his best tap. of strong beer, in the street he lived, pro bono publico. When this supply was , exhausted, the populace, with its usual gra titur'e, betook themselves to breaking the poor gentleman's windows,. and creating a very serious riot about his house, vociferating for more beer, and employing the vigour the liquor had inspired iu destroying the' donor's property. Urged, therefore, by the remonstrances of his wife, the servants issued from the door, bearing afsalk,.of small beer, ,and the Mnnager himself appeared at his own balcony, and thus addressed the multitude:— " Ladies and Gentlemen—lt has always been my wish as well as soy interest to afford you the best entertainment my hou se could afford, but on thi s occas ion, you having, with your ac customed goodness, drank all my strong beer, and the brewer living at a great distance, I am reduced to the necessity of sending to you the only thing I have at command, namely, a cask of small beer, which I trust, Ladies and Gentlemen, under these circumstances you will receive with your usual in dulgence." CHRISTINA, QUEEN OF SWEDEN.--When the news of the execution of CMART.E9 1. reached Sweden, this Princess remarked to a Nobleman at Court, who expressed a horror at the event, " My Lord, the English have cut off their King's head for making no us e o f it ; an d t h e y h ave acte d very wisely." EXPENSIVE DECORATION.--A Gentleman, who determined to paper a room in the moat costly manner in the kingdom, boasted that the paper alone had cost 394,440/., which lie made out by showing, that he had employed an agent to purchase for him, at one penny each, throughout the country, all the tickets ud were drawn blanks in a previous lottery. Reckoning, therefore, 39,444 blanks at the original price of 10/. each, he made out the above sum. WHIMSICAL VENGEANCE.—Such was the ani mosity conceived by the Swiss against the House of Austria, in consequence of the attempt of Archduke ALBERT to subju gate them, that they put to death all the peacocks throughout the country, because a peacock's tail made part of the crest of the Austrian arms. History informs us, that a Swiss being at an entertainment with a glass or wine standing before him, one of the company observed, that the sun formed in it a kind of representation of a peacock's tail. At this sight the Swiss drew his sabre, and smashed the glass in pieces. DEAR Swarr having been one day informed by a friend that King 'WILLIAM 111. had, upon his arrival, taken the following motto, " Non rapzii sect recepi," " Ay," maid the Doan, " I always thought the receiver as bad as the thief." Da— FRANKLIN.—When the Doctor travelled through part of Scotland, he was attended by a negro servant, who, estimating the value of land in proportion to its being clear of wood, as they do in North America, exclaimed, while passing over the barren mountains of Lochabar—" 0, master, what a fine country is this, where not a single tree is to be seen for many miles round !" CEICEMONIKS IN SPAIN.—One of the old Ce remonies in Spain, to notify the QuEr,w's pregnancy, was her going in a chair to our Lady Datocha, all the grandees fol lowing on foot. This image was of wood, and used annually on her festival to weep most copiously, which drew tears from all the congregation. One day, the preacher observing a person with dry eyes, called to, him—how he could forbear weeping when the holy virgin shed floods of tears ? "Ah ! reverend father," answered he, " I am the person who yesterday fixed her in a niche, in doing which I drove three large nails into her back ; if ever she was able to cry, it would surely have been then." THE LEEDS FAMILY.—TiIe ancestor of the Duke of LEEDS was a young man named Osborne, who served his apprenticeship to Sir Wm. Hewit, who was Lord Mayor of London in the reign of Queen Elizabeth. Sir William lived on London-bridge, and his daughter, during Edward Osborne's apprenticeship, accidentally fell from her father's window into the Thames. Osborne plunged after the young lady, and saved her life at the risk of his own. This act much added to the favourable opinion which the master had for the ap prentice, and as soon as the latter had served his time, Sir William Hewit said to him, " Osborne, you are a de , serving youth, and have faithfully served me for seven years ; I am under considerable obligations to you, you •have saved the life of my only daughter at the peril of your own. You have therefore the best claim to her; she is at your ser vice, if you choose to accept of her in marriage, and the most considerable part of what I am possessed of shall hereafter be yours. Osborne gladly accepted the generous offer, and the eldest son of that marriage was Hewit Osborne, who was knighted by the Earl of Essex, under whom he served in Ire land, for his services in the field. The family soon after be came ennobled. Thomas Osborne, the first Duke of Leeds, was prouder of the circumstance of his ancestor having acquired wealth and station by his honesty and intrepid spirit, than he was of any of the subsequent services of the family, and once related the circumstance with conscious pride to Charles 11. --• FIRST MAP OF ENGLAND.-1./EONG E LILLY, the son of the famous grammarian, who lived some time at Rome with Cardinal Pole, published the first m a p t h at ever was drawn of this Island. It was published in 1539, twenty years before his death. POVERTY, or the want of riches, is generally compensated by having more hopes, and fewer fears—by a greater share of health, and a more exquisite relish of the - , smallest enjoyments, than those who possess them are usually blessed with. A LC/1 T.—ANOTIIONY WOOD gives a curious account of the adventures of two noted aichc._ mists, Edward Kelly, an Oxfoid student, and Dr. John Dee. Kelly had both his ears cut off for one of his exploits in Lancashire. He had, in order to know something concerning the death of a young gentleman, invoked some infernal spi rits in the park of Walton in the 1)ale, Lanca- shire, and afterwards took up the body o► a man buried in Law church-yard, which body he caused, by his incantations, to utter strange pre dictions. Notwithstanding the loss of his ears, which were not as long as those of !di customers, Dee employed I.:1n as his S'kuer (to report the words of the spirits.) They went abroad, toge ther with Laski, a Polish Nobleman, in the year 1583, and residing chiefly in Boh em i a , con ti nue d . _ their incantations for some time, but quarrelling at last about the division of the spoil, Dee return ed to England, Kelly was knighted by the Em peror Rodolph the Second, who sp en t muc h o f his time in search of the philosopher's stone. Kelly amused him awhile, but his tricks being discovered, he was ordered into custody. In this dilemma his old friend the devil left him in the lurch, for, endeavouring to escape from a hi g h wi n d o w, he broke his leg, and died soon af ter. Lord Willoughby, Queen Elizabeth's Am- bassador at Prague, sent an old warming -pan to her Majesty, part of which had been tu i n smute d into gold by Kelly. The Queen, it seems, was so perfectly convinced of the truth of the story that she sent Peter Gwynne to Bohemia to per suade Kelly to return to England. THE KING, &c. WINDSOR, SEPT. 29.—Yesterday afternoon - his MAJESTY, and visitors, consisting of the Mite of Dorset, Lord St. Helen's, the Hon. Mr. and Mrs. A. Stanhope, and Sir W. Kepple, who arrived the preceding evening at the Royal Lodge, and dined with his Majesty, visited the Castle. His Majesty drove him self in his favourite phaeton, accompanied by the Duke of Dor set ; a second followed, containing Lord St. Helens and Sir NV. Kepple, and afterwards his Majesty's double-bodied phaeton, with 4 ponies and postillions, containing the Hon. Mr. and Mrs. A. Stanhope, Sir W. Knighton, and Co]. Thornton. The Royal Party reached the Castle at a quarter after 4, and were conducted • through the corridor and other improvements, by Mr. Jenkins, Clerk of the Works (Ilr. J. W 7 yattville being absent.) His Majesty did not alight from his phaeton, but drove about the quadrangle, while his illustrious ,visitors inspected the altera tions, which occupied them about halt' an hour, when hs Ma jesty and Party returned through the Little Park, and up the Long Walk to the Royal. Lodge.—Last evening his Ma jesty entertained the following distinguished characters at din ner :—Their Royal Highnesses the Princess Augusta and the Duchess of Gloucester, the Duke of Dorset, the Marquis and Marchioness Conynham, Earl and Countess Mount Charles, Lord A.'Conyngham, Lord St. Helens, the [lon. Mr. and Mrs. A. Stanhope, Sir W. Kepple, Sir W. Knie,l3ton, Sir E. Nagle, and Col. Thornton. At seven o'clock the party entered the suite of rooms extending the south front of•the Royal Lodge, which were most tastefully illuminated and decorated, when a superb - banquet was served up. At a quarter befOre' nine the private Band of his Majesty WAS stationed in the Conservatory. from which time until eleven they entertained his Majesty and guests with their pertbrmance of some choice pieces from the new Operas of /I Crociato in Egitto, Preciosa, &c.. and the grand Coronation Chorus, which was particularly ad mired. Shortly after I 1 o'clock their Royal "Highnesses the Princess Augusta and the Duchess of' Gloucester took leave of his Majesty, and returned to Frogmore Lodge. The phaetons for his Majesty and visitors are ordered to be in readiness at the Royal Lodge this afternoon at two o'clock, and preparations have been made for an aquatic excursion at Virginia Water._ The bells of the parish-church have been rung► this day in honour of the birth-day of the Queen-Dowager of Wirtemberg.

Hamilton, for Calais.--A Royal salute was fired from the bat- tery on the heights as the vessel moved from the pier. At the latter place most of the rank and fashion in Dover were as sembled to see their Royal Highnesses embark, and all classes were much gratified at the very attentive and affectionate man ner of his Royal Highness towards his interesting and venerable parent, whom his Royal Highness accompanied across the Channel.--Their Highnesses the Prince and Princess Narisch- Mlle and suite, the Hon. Mr. Percival, Mr. and Mrs. Selwyn, &c. left Wright's Hotel for Boulogne this morning. Mr. and Mrs. Canning will leave town to-morrow for the Country.

They were attended by Mr. Samuel Cooper, who showed them every attention. _ . . All the Princes and Princesses of England, brothers and sisters of George IV., who are on the Continent, lately met at Homburgh, the capital of the Landgrztve of Hesse. There were the Queen Dowager of Wurtemberg, the Landgravine of Hesse, and the Dukes of Clarence, Cumberland, and Cambridge, Go vernor of llanover.—( Etoik.) • IMPROVEMENTS IN TOWN. - By th e remova l o f the Turnpike at Hyde Park-corner, Piccadilly, the Grosvenor Estate will be improved in value to an incalculable extent. Let any one reflect what a prodigious track of land it is ; reaching to the River Thames across the wooden bridge at Chelsea, the whole of which will be covered with superb edifices.— As to the rear of Grosvenor-place, wherein Belgrave luare is to rear its head, our Readers may judge what is calculated upon when they are told that Mr. Gomazo. the Brewer at Knightsbridge, has been offered sixteen thou s Ind pounds for one of his houses opposite the Park ; and this merely for the purpose of making an opening into the new square. Belgrave-square will, we are told, be, in a few years, the Court end of London. Under this impres sion it is the determination of Lord Guosv xoa to make this spot the vehicle of his future fame. The elevation of every house will be one story higher than any modern buildings, and every front w be of stone; the area to be considerable.—A s a proof how necessaryit is to build houses upon a large scale, there are now no less than thirty-two appli cations upon the books of Mouse Agents for town residences of the size of mansions.
