The Proprietor, flattered by the Success which has attended his ex tion s ,has determined to give TWO DAYS' FETE on a more ex ended Scale than has ever before been witnessed. In announcing a SYLVAN FETE, The Proprietor's aim will be directed to enable the Subscribers, obility, Gentry and the Public, to witness those RUSTIC SPORTS which are nearly obsolete, but the observance of which procured for this eountry the title of " Berrie England," and which, in the Olden Time, constituted the principal Amusements of a country fair !

Harrison, will be heard at interintervals during th e d a y, a nd th e F e t e w ill conc l u d e w ith th e R o y a l vals Tableau, fifty-two feet high, in the centre of the lake, con sisting of Transparencies, Illuminations, Devices, &c., and the most brilliant display of Fireworks ever witnessed !

OVERTURNING 05' A SHIP AND NARROW ESCAPE OF THE CREW.—On Friday morning the brig Flirt wasgoing down the river with reefed topsails and foresail set, when she was overtaken in Woolwich reach by a sudden squall of wind and rain from the south-west, and being very light, and with no ballast on board, was blown over on her larboard side, and Legan to fill. The master of the vessel and his crew got on to the rigging, and thence to the hull. The brig was fast gbing down in deep water, and the destruction of all hands appeared inevitable, when the Waterman, No. 11, on her way to Lop eon, made her way towards the sinking vessel, and upon coming alongside her keel was visible about two feet above the water. Mr. Leonard, an inspector of Thames police, and his boat's crew, came up at the same time, and having rescued the cap tain and crew, put them on board the Waterman. A warp was then run out from the steamer, and the Flirt was towed by the Waterman into shallow water, and she settled down immedi ately afterwards. Now ready, in 2 vols.

Their Lordships then adjourned, and re-assembled at Five o'clock. On the motion that tho report on the South-Eastern Railway Bill be brought up, The Marquis of CLANRICARDE presented a petition from a person named MOURILLIAN against the Bill, and moved that it be recommitted. Lord REDESDALE said the allegations in the petition had been inquired into before the Standing Orders' Committee, and that they were frivolous. The Marquis of CLANRICABDE withdrew his motion, and then moved, as an amendment, that the evidence takes before the Committee be printed. On a division this motion was negatived, the numbers being—For receiving the report, 37 ; for the amend ment, 1. Lord STANLEY moved the third reading of the Taxing Masters Court of Chancery (Ireland) Bill. The Earl of WICKLOW moved, as an amendment, " that all persons to be appointed under the Bill should be solicitors of the Court of Chancery in Ireland, who should have been in practice for the space of ten years or upwards." The amendment, which was supported by Lord COTTENHAM, Lord CAMPBELL, the Marquis of CLAN RICARDE, and Lord LANGDALE, and opposed by the LORD CHANCELLOR, Lord STANLEY, and the Earl of St. GERMANS, was carried by a majority of 6, the num bers being-19 for the amendment and 13 against it. In answer to Earl FORTESCUE, it was stated by Lord STANLEY that the execution of the persons convicted 'at Exeter of the murder of Mr. PALMER and some of the crew of the Wasp, had been respited, in order that the opinion of the judges might be taken on the point of law raised at the trial. The County Rates Bill was read a third time. The Duke of RICHMOND moved that the Portsmouth Railway (Atmospheric) Bill be recommitted. The recommittal was opposed by the Marquis of NORTHAMPTON; a long discussion ensued, and eventually the amendment was carried ; shortly after which their Lordships adjourned. The Commons met shortly before Four o'clock, and went up to the Lords to hear the royal assent given to various Bills. On their return Mr. HAWES presented a petition from the Chairman of the Cambridge and Lincoln Railway Company against the London and York Railway Bill, representing that many of the names on the subscription list were those of paupers and many of them were forgeries. lie moved that the petition be printed. The motion, which was opposed by Mr. B. DENNISON, Mr. WARD, Mr. BERNAL, and Mr. DARBY, and sup ported by Mr. ROEBUCK was agreed to. Mr. B. DENNISON then moved the third reading of the Bill. Mr. ROEBUCK moved that it be read a third time that day three months. The amendment, which was supported by Mr. HAWES and opposed by Mr. W. PATTEN, Mr. B. DENNISON and Mr. WARD, was negatived, and the Bill was read a third time and passed. Mr. ESCOTT gave notice of a motion for next session, for the admission of Indian corn duty free. Sir H. PEEL gave notice that, to- morrow, he should move thiloadjournment of the House till Friday. Mr. SMYTHE postponed, till next session, his motion on Portendic. In answer to Sir R. INGLIS, it was stated by Sir R. PEEL, that the subject of the propriety of rebuilding Westminster-bridge was under the consideration of Go vernment. In answer to Mr. CHRISTIE, Sir J. GRAHAM said that le Brazilian pirates condemned at Exeter were respited in order to give time to have the legality of the convic• don argued. Mr. G. W. HOPE, in answer to Mr. P. HOWARD, said negotiations were still going on between the Government and the New Zealand Company. After a few words from Lord PAL3IERSTON on the subject of the causes of the recent accident on the Dover Railway, and from Mr. TUFNELL and Sir J. GRAHAM, on the case of JOHN MAYES, supposed to have been im properly convicted of felony, • . Mr. MOFFATT asked whether the new Houses of Parliament would be ready by 1847 ? Lord LINCOLN said the Committee-rooms would be, but not the Hall. Sir JAMES GRAHAM, in answer to Lord EBRINGTON, said, that measures had been taken to prevent the re currence of such revolting scenes as had occurred at the Spafields burying-ground. On the motion for going into a Committee of Supply, Mr. M. GIBSON rose for the purpose of drawing the attention of the House to the state of our relations with Brazil, and also to the question of encouraging the immigration of labourers into the West Indies. A brief discuss on ensued, but Sir R. PEEL declining to enter into the matter at any length, the subject dropped. Mr. HAwEs then brought forward his motion respect ing the conduct of Mr. WRAY, which led to a long dis cussion, in the course of which the House was addressed by Sir J. Graham, Mr. Sheil, Mr. W. Patten, Lord John Russell, and Sir R. Peel, but ultimately the motion was rejected, and the House adjourned at a quarter-past 11 o'clock. Dladrid papers to the 28th have been received. The Gazette publishes a dispatch from Saragossa of the 25th. The QUEEN was to have left that city on the 28th for Tudela by the canal of Arragon, on the 29th to arrive at Tafalla, and on the 30th at Pampeluna The dispatch states that she is in the most perfect health. It was expected the Court would proceed from Pampe lusia to Tolosa, and from thence to San Sebastian, where it would arrive about the 6th or 7th of August. El Heraldo has the following in relation to the Ma. lags conspiracy : " The conspiracy had ramifications at Rondo, Grenada, and other places, and relied on the co-operation of some unworthy officers of the provincial regiment of Jaen, and on the majo , rity of the sergeants of that corps. To arm the national militia, plunder the commercial houses of Malaga, and, with these forces and resources, hasten to Rondo and Grenada, in order to protect there the revolutionary movement, commencing by the assastination of the authorities—such was the plan of the conspirators. They also reckoned on a general rising in Catalonia a nd a t Valencia. A large house in the Hi g h- s treet was their head quarters, and the rebellion was about to break out at the mo ment General Caminero, who had long entertained suspicions on the subject, received positive news of it, which is said to be due to a sergeant. The General forthwith marched to the barracks, ordered the troops under arms, fell upon the conspi rators, arrested several of them flagrance deiicto, and Malaga has thus been saved from a tremendous catastrophe. Among the prisoners are a Commandant Don Manual de Lara, various officers, a large number of sergeants, a merchant named Hervas, the Advocate Carder°, and Canadillas, Saborio, and other indi viduals, well known in the Progressista party. It also states that Madrid was to have been the theatre of a revolutionary movement. The political chief of Ciudad Real hiving seized a treasonable cor respondence carried on between the Carlists of that pro vince, had thought proper to banish three of the princi pal chiefs of that party. Soma changes were contem plated in that military department. General ASPIROZ ; the director of the Artillery, was to be replaced by Gen eral LOIGORRY, and General SORIA, Inspector of the In fantry, by General CORDOVA. Petitions have been presented to the Commandant- General of Malaga by Moderados and Progressistas in favour of those compromised in the conspiracy discovered there ; and the Captain-General of Grenada has been prayed to stay the execution of the sentences until her Majesty's pleasure be known. A large body of troops were assembling at Vittoria in order to prevent a Carlist coup de main on the Royal Family. The Government print, El Herald°, announces that the ship of war Manzanares, under the command of the Infante Don ENRIQUE, has been ordered from Malaga to the coast of Biscay. Great preparations were making at Bilboa to give the QUEEN a splendid reception. General NARVA.EZ and M. MARTINEZ DE LA RosA accompany the QUEEN on her tour. All the other Ministers had returned to Madrid from Saragossa. The Three per Cents. were rather firmer than at the last quotation. They were done at 28?-, for cash, and 29* at sixty days. Amount, 26,200,000. Fives at 21* cash ; 400,000 done. Passives, 7* from the 15th of August. Amount, 4,000,000. We have received the Paris papers of Friday and Saturday. Those of Saturday allude to Lord PALMERSTON'S speech in the House of Commons on the defences of the country, ridicule his fears, and accuse him of ex aggerating the maritime power of France. They infer from his speech that there must exist in England some latent ill-will against France, or such expressions of distrust in her intentions would not be indulged in. The Sieele, however, in remarking on the speech, says— " There is, as usual, some exaggeration, but there is a great foundation of truth i n w h a t was sa id b y t h e Noble Lord. The Straits are no longer an obstacle on which England can de pend as it could before the introduction of steam : our fleets have at Cherbourg and Brest a secure shelter against the attacks of an enemy: England may consider itself, with gnat truth, threatened with a disembarkation in the event of a contest with France. But we have not a navy in every respect superior to that of Great Britain, and our steam fleet is not sufficient to transport two hundred and ninety thousand men. Without reckoning that an army of that size would be needless for a descent, we know that 40,000 men disembarked on the coast of England, with sufficient stores and ammunition, would maintain itself easily there during the whole time necessary to receive reinforcements by the new mode of navigation. The Emperor wished to go to London with 70,000 !men ; an army of from 70,1.00 to 80,000 men would be sufficient at the present day against a country where the people are in flagrant hostility with the aristocracy, and where battalions do not start up at once, whatever may happen." In relation to the means possessed by Great Britain of repelling invasion, it adds— " In England soldiers are engaged for life, so that it is evi dent that not one-third of the 50,000 invalids are fit for ser vice. As to the militia, Mr. Pitt armed it, and placed but little dependence upon it—first, on account of the state of pub lic feeling; and, secondly, on account of the difficulty that all Englishmen have in contracting military habits. But we now only wish to point out that, by holding a lofty attitude towards England, we can oblige our neighbours to expend fifty or sixty millions additional francs annually to place their land forces on a footing to give us battle on the soil of Great Britain itself. A straggle between England and France henceforth be as much a continental as a maritime war." The annexation of Texas is also the subject of com ment. The Opposition journals are loud in their con demnations of M. GUIZOT for having co-operated with England in endeavouring to prevent annexation. The Consttutionnel loOks upon the whole as a matter of bar gain and sale. The Texans were in debt, and have sold themselves to the highest bidder. The Courrier Francais says— " We imagine that Mexico will not engage in a war with the United States in order to retake Texas. As to England, no doubt she will resign herself to it, and our Ministry will follow the example of that of Sir 11. Peel. But now that the Texas question has been resolved, there still remains that of Oregon, and we shall be much astonished if the British Go. vernment does not seize the occasion to be avenged for this late defeat." According to the Moniteur Algerien of the 26th, Mar shal BUGEAUD embarked for Delges on the 28th to take the command of the expedition against BEN SALEX, Colenel PELISSIER is to accompany the Marshal in this expedition. We extract the following from the France Algerienne— " A violent animosity subsisted for a length of time between the Sendjes and the Sheah tribes, the latter of whom have always resisted our troops. They lately, after having endea voured to assassinate by night Si Mohammed, whe was set over part of the division of Orleansville by the French, committed an act of odious treason. Colonel de St. Amand had sent an escort of honour of thirty spahis to Hadj Homed, the French agha of the Sendjes, for the marriage of his son. The Sheah having found apart from their comrades several of the spahis who accompanied the tax collector, killed them, and then taking off their red burnous, put them on themselves. Thus disguised, the wearers came on at the head of about three hundred of the tribe to meet our agha of the Sendjes. Perceiving the red burnous at the head of the band, he supposed it was his colleagues of the Meld:men _coming to pay their compliments to him on the occasion of the m w arriale. - Under cover of this disloyal impo sition, the Sheahs came up to within pistol-shot, and then dis charged their muskets at the band. The agha fell dead on the instant, and with him two caids, and about ten others. The spahis, notwithstanding their disproportionate numbers, mad* a brave defence, and got away, at last, with the loss of only five men. A body of between two hundred and three hundred armed men on foot, who were lying in ambush, fired upon the rear of the agha's party at the same time that it was attacked in front." It appears that the young bride, with several women, and the whole of the baggage, fell into the hands of the assailants. Marshal BUGEAUD has decreed the transpor• tation of the tribe, and the confiscation of their territory, The proposed visit of the Queen of ENGLAND to the Rhine appears to have excited some apprehensions in the minds of French diplomatists. La Fiance says:— The French Cabinet feels somewhat alarmed, and has instructed its political agents to collect every rumour that may transpire round the royal residences. The Cabinet of the Tuileries still renumbers the 15th of July, 1840, and views with apprehension a conference which may regulate without its participation the affairs of the peninsula." The Moniteur announces that the Minister of Public Works has fixed the 9th, of September, at half-past two in the afternoon, as the day when the Great Northern Railroad, with its branch lines from Lille towards Calais and Dunkirk, is to be publicly adjudicated. The adju dication of the branch line from Fampoux to Hazebruck is to take place at the same time. The Prince and Princess DE JOINVILLE arrived at the Tuileries on Friday, and were to remai❑ there until the departure of the Royal Family fur Eu, which is fixed fur to-day. The Paris and Rouen Railway Company have de clared a dividend of 23 francs 10 ceniimes for the nine months ending July. Dan CARLOS and the Princess of BEIRA arrived at Greoulx on the 24th ult. The Duke and Duchess DE NEMOURS left Limoges for Pompadour on the 30th ult. The Memorial Bordelais of the 31st ult. has the following : " Among the arrivals here are Count Bressen, the French Ambassador to the Court of Spain ; PSI. Druard, Comptroller of the Household of the Duke d'Aumale; and M. Aguerre Mayor, the American Consul. Considerable disturbances were created in the night of the 29th ult. in front of the residences of the Dutch and Neapolitan Consuls, at Bordeaux, in con sequence, it was pretended, of their not having hoisted their figs and illuminated their houses in honour of the national fete The rioters, after giving them a most hearty charivari, broke their windows, committed other excesses, at J, finally teiring down their escutcheons, threw them into the river." The Semaphore of Marseilles gives the following from Al giers, 25th ult. :—" The news of the death of our agha of the Sendjes was immediately spread by the cherif partisan of Abd-el-Kader, who calls himself a descendant of the Prophet, and it appears that the Arabs look on it as an act of Divine justice, so that fresh risings are to be dreaded in the district of Orleansville. While these things are passing in the west, the insurrection appears to be extending in the east. Reinforce ments of troops have just been sent to Dellys. It appears that all Kabylia is in arms, and that the campaign which is expected to commence about the 26th or 27th, will be a rough one." A letter from Tangiers, 9th ult., says :—" The Emperor has just established at Fez a kind of military school, where 600 young men are to study the elements of European tactics. The Moors consent to this measure with a very bad grace, and nu merous desertions take place. The Consuls-General of Spain and Denmark at this place have been promoted by their res pective Governments to the rank of resident Ministers, and it is in this quality that the Danish agent of this place, M. Car stenseen, is, it is said, shortly to proceed to the United States. The Vice-Consuls employed under their orders have been named Consuls. The general opinion here is that M. de Nyon, the Consul.

THE EIGH TH E DITION OF " M R B uRKE ' S P EER AGE AND B.A.RONE TAGE " has just made its appearance, and com pensates for the kegth of time devoted to its production by the completeness and finish of its details. Every line seems to have been searchingly revised, and the whole now forms the m Est comprehensive and perfect history of our Nobility ever predueed. Peers, Baronets, and their numerous off-shoots are all accurately and most clearly shown, and the researches connected with Mr. Burke's other great National work " THE DICTIONARY of the Landed Gentry," have enabled him to add a most interesting feature, in the introduction of the thousands of Gentlemen's families allied by descent or inter marriage with the titled orders. Consequently, almost every reader finds some one of his connexions recorded in the pages of the " PEERAGE." It may be said, indeed, that there is no work published more essential than this to the conversation and occurrences of every day life. --- The Admiralty have purchased and sent down an organ for the use of Chatham dockyard Chapel; also a trans parent clock, to be put up - near the yard gate, for the guidance of the police in regulatir.g the ringing of the bell.— United Senrice Gazette.

We are without any arrivals in the City to-day from the British Colonies. The Hon. Secretary of the Committee of the Association formed here to forward subscriptions for the relief of the sufferers by the fires at Quebec, has proceeded to Liverpool to arrange matters there for forwarding the good cause, and we are informed with the most satisfactory results. After an association of snore than thirty years with most of the subscribers to the subscription-room of the North and South American Coffee-house (in former times and before steam-vessels across the Atlantic were dreamt of) we find by a letter before us, that it is proposed by the new proprietor, Mr. T. B. Simpson, to remove the locale to certain rooms on the same floor. This, it is considered, will be a great convenience. The spacious rooms now devoted to the subscribers will be attached to the tavern department. It ought to be stated that the new pi o prietor has taken the best means possible to obtain early in formation for the subscribers. The Consol Market has been steady to-day at 98% 3 for the Account, and at 98 1 / 2 % for transfer to-morrow.

They have been very well paid as yet. The busi ness of the "Clearing House" has been exceedingly large. India Bonds are at 675. premium. Very few bargains were made in the Foreign Stocks to day ; Spanish Actives have been quoted only at 26 3 4 ; the Passive at 6N ; the Dutch Four per Cents. at 993:1 7g ; Mexican Deferred at 20 1 4 ; and Buenos Ayres at 50.

An explosion of fire-damp, by which 29 human beings lost their lives, took place on Saturday last at a colliery belonging to Mr. Thos. Powell, situated at Crombach, about three miles distant from the village of Aberdare, and six from Merthyr T 3 dvii. About eleven o'clock a loud report, :attended with a. violent concussion of the earth was heard, whlCh - Ciiiised the people of he neighbouring houses to direct their attention towards the pit, and in a very short time the awful fact became known that an explosion of fire-damp had occurred. The consternation which ensued may be more easily imagined than described, when it is known that there were in the pit at the time from one hundred and fifty to two hundred human beings, men and boys, and the awful uncertainty that existed, how many, if any, were alive. Langaage cannot describe the mournful lesson. The wailing of women, and the crying of children, as they ran towards the pit's mouth seeking their rela tives, were sufficient to unnerve the stoutest heart, and melt the most stoical spirit. In one face you might see the fearfully anxious look changed into one of gladness as the husband, son, or brother, came up alive. In another face "hope fled,", and settled despair when one after another came up, and the expected one still be hind. I visited the pit in a few hours after the catas trophe, and never has it fallen to my lot to witness a more awful lesson. Surely, legislation ought to step in, and en deavour togive security to human life, by the appointment of competent persons—men whose scientific acquire ments would be at least a guarantee that nothing which science could do had been left undone towards the se curity of human life. The air in the pit, after the ex plosion, was so noxious, that it was a considerable time ere any person could venture to seek for the missing men. But such is the devotion, such the spirit and courage of these poor working colliers, that they were to be seen going into the pit without the least hesitation to seek their missing fellow•workmen. The risk which they incurred may be imagined, from many of them having fainted when proceeding towards the workings ; yet others were pushing on and working, undauntedly, hoping to find some one alive and in need of assistance. It is not exactly known how the accident hap pened. It is said the Davy lamp was constantly used to tr the air, but the pit has always been in bad repute on account of its de ficient ventilation. No accident in this part of the country has ever keen attended with the loss of so much human life, and the effect consequently is an unusual gloom over the whole neighbourhood. There were also two or three horses killed, and the damage done to the works is very great. Doubtless more will be made known on the inquest, which will be held on Monday , of which I will send you a full report. WHITE BAIT DINNER TO THE LORD MAYOR.- A very splendid fish dinner was on Thursday last given to the Lord Mayor, by the guardians of the City of London Union, at the Crown and Seeptre,"Greenwich, of which board his Lord ship, on the introduction of the new poor-law into the City, was chosen chairman. Upwards of seventy sat down to dinner. The chairman, in proposing the health of the chief magistrate, alluded to the length of time his Lordship had occupied the chair of the board, and the high satisfaction which had been frequently expressed by these best qualified to judge of the talent, zeal, discrimination, and humanity exhibited in the trans'ction of the important business of the union. These qualities were exercised ever since the formation of the union in 1837, a period during which the difficulties attendant upon the management of the powers vested in the guardians by the Poor law Bill were greatly increased by the enomous influx of des titute persons into the City from all parts of the country. The Lord Mayor, iii arknowleding the toast, which was received with acclamation, torak oticasien to refer to the elegant tribute he had lately received at the hands of the board, in the shape of a vote of thanks, magnificently emblazoned and framed, and expressed in terms the roost kind and graceful. There were 58 guardians present, and the day was spent by the company in a most convivial manner. SOUTHAMPTuN, AUGUST 3.—The Tagus, Captain Brooks, steam-ship, left the docks this day, at three P. M., for Malta, with the East India and China mails, which will be transmitted by the company's steamer Iberia for Alexandria, and the Tagus will proceed on for Constantinople and Smyrna. She has 38 passengers and a very full cargo of Manchester goods. The Royal West India mail packet, the Forth, Capt.

VIENNA, JULY 21.—The interview of Queen Victoria with the King of Prussia at Coblentz, to which Prince Metter nich has received a special invitation, and at which the Prussian Minister of Foreign Affairs will also be present, excites the more attention because it is said that the Earl of Aberdeen will accompany her Majesty. According to the reports which seem the most depended on, the chief object of this meeting will be the affairs of Switzerland, and the marriage of the Queen of Spain. Her Royal Highness the Duchess of Kent has left us to-day and set out for Cobourg. FRANKFORT, Jui.r . .27.—Their Majesties the King and Queen of Prussia.,are expected in this city from Berlin this afternoon. We learn from Breslau that several of the great Boman Catholic nobility of Silesia intend to join the German Catho lic Church. Among them we find the names of the Duchess of Sagan, and of Countess Hoverden and Schaffgotsch. FRANKFORT, JULY I:B.—The King and Queen of Prussia arrived here at half.past eight yesterday evening, on their way to the Rhenish provinces, and left at three o'clock the.following afternoon for Beberich. COLOGNE, JULY 26. —Notwithstanding the many different accounts respecting the festivities during the visit of the Queen of England on the Rhine, we believe we may, with tolerable certainty,.state the following particulars :—The Queen is ex pected between the Bth and the 15th of next month, with a suite of above 100 persons. She will be received on the Prussian fron. tiers by the Prince of Prussia, and, with the principal attendants, conveyed in the RgyaV,earikiaVis, which will be ready on the spot, to Aix-la-0044k, Wtietice she will proceed by special train to Cologne, 'whereirtik - will,be received at the terminus by their Majeties the King acid Queen. It seems to be uncertain whether the Court will proceed the same night to Stetzenfils or pass the night at Bruhl. Three days are to be passed at Stotzenfils, (huh). - which excursions will be made tothe beautiful environs ; on the second day the illus. trious persons may, perhaps, go to Wiesbaden and Beberich on the invitation of the Duke of Nassau. On the third day they are to return to Cologne, whence the Queen of Great Britain will proceed immediately to Coburg.

GRAND REVIEW IN HYDE PARK.—Yesterday morn ing the household troops, consisting of the Ist and 2d Regi ments of Life Guards, the Royal Horse Guards (Blue), the 4th Light Dragoons, the Ist and 3d battalion of the G rena di er Guards, the Ist and 2d battalion of the Fusilier Guards, and a brigade of guns of the Royal Horse Artillery, were reviewed on the usual exercising ground in Hyde Park, by his Majesty the King of the Netherlands, the Duke of Wellington, and a number of General Officers. It was not positively known that the review would take place until eight o'cloek, at which hoar an orderly sergeant from each regiment attended at Apsley House to receive the commands of the Duke of Wellington. Shortly after ten o'clock the troops assembled on the ground, and notwithstanding the unfavourable appear. ante of the weather thousands of persons were present. At half-past ten o'clock the troops took up the following posi tions :—The 3d battalion of the Grenadier Guards and the Ist battalion of the Scots Fusilier Guards occupied the centre ; the id battalion of Scots Fusilier Guards the left, and the Ist battalion of the Grenadier Guards the right wing, flanked by the cavalry, under the immediate command of General Lygon ; on the extreme left was stationed the field battery. At a few minutes before eleven the Duke of Wellington, attended by a numerous and brilliant staff, arrived ; and, shortly afterwar.!l, . his Majesty the King of the Net herlands. dressed in the uniform of a British Field-Marshal, accompanied by Prince George of Cambridge, Lord Fitzroy Somerset, Colonel Baron Coehoorn, :'^ tint 13ylandt, Hon. Captain A. Hood, and Viscount Ha warden. His Excellency M I )(tile], ant: M. Bowl, occupied one of her Majesty's carriage:, His Majesty was received with the usual military honours, the artillery tiring a royal salute of 21 guns, and the bands of the several regiments playing the national anthem. The illustrious visitor having rode round the line and minutely inspected the appointments of the men, the troops broke into subdivisions and m:,rthed past in slow and quick time, after which they were wheeled into line and went through the vat ions evolutions with the ut most precision. Ihe formation of squares upon different positions was effected with the greatest rapidity, and the. evolutions of the cavalry were executed admirably, and appeared to give universal satisfac tion. His Majesty during the review conversed with several of the general officers, and at the conclusion addressed the commanding officer. A general salute then followed, and the regiments were marched to their respective barracks. COMING OF 'AGE OF EDWARD STILLINGFLEET CAY LEY, THE ELDEST SON Or E. S. CAYLEY, ESQ., M.P.—On Wednesday last this event was celebrated with much festivity at Wydale, by nearly 200 of the farm and cottage tenants of the estate in Snainton, Brompton, and Troutsdale, and their wives, partaking of a most plentiful and sumptuous dinner, tea, - and supper. The party was k e p t up with great glee, be tween music, dancing, and singing, to a very late hour of the evening, or rather morning ; and on Thursday evening the school children of the above villagers were also entertained with tea and a beautiful display of fireworks.— Yorkshire Gazette, SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. TATTERSALL'S.—YESTERDAY. Until near six o'clock, the attention of a very crowded 1' 00 ! was wholly occupied in settling cn the Goodwood raid, f A which, owing to the number of events, and the nnprecede nw briskness of speculation, the accounts were exceedingly hell; It is a gratifying proof of the healthy state of the ring money was plentiful, and that this important finale to a ing M brilliant meeting passed off satisfactorily.

(FROM OUR CORRESPONDENT.) I do not think even the losers at Goodwood last complain of their loss es , so su p era b un d an t a nd BILK . ; fkent was the sport. If any meeting in the world f g serves to be designated as cour tly it i s the one tlr b ; which I am now commen ti ng , see i ng it i s held inZ r i, park of a Duke, has for its stewards two Cabinet nisters, and is, moreover, honoured with the preseolo a powerful Monarch, w h o t rave ll e d a di s t ance of og miles merely for the pleasure of witnessing the /2 04' afforded. Year after year, owing to the indefatigable lag' . t t of Lord G e or ge B en ti nc k, are i mprovements proje j and carried out.

The 300 Sovs. Stake for four-year olds, though tested for by cripples, was productive of a better T o than usual, and was another t urn f or th e fi e lders. t he position of the Devil and Best Bower was exactlf reverse of that which they occupied in the betting. i ds In the Welter Stakes C a pt a i n P erc y Willi a ms, t e e Lord Howth's colt, defe a t e d Q ueen M a b, w hi c h at w ibe sent Boarding-school Miss to her proper position in a s market for the Goodwood Stakes, and lowered the hor? of the Queen's friends for the same race.

Thanks to Nat ill oatl riding, the race was rendered far more interesting was anticipated, and Old England won with so roL f difficulty that he receded in the betting for the St. Ie and was friendless at 12 to 1. The result of the Gratwicke was likewise attrablel.oo to the same head and hand which made the p ie j race so exciting. The Mon a r c h's def ea t, loo ko Hersey's previous doings, was indeed a matter of 1;a nishment, and was caused, I am of opinion by the„ • 0 0, pace at which the race was run. Many are of ono had Cowl not broken do w r, he must have had the h° l :,• . now acquired by Hersey.
