MRS. SEItitES. We were in hopes that the recent letter of Mr. PARKINS, the Ex-Sheriff, would have si lenced the Royal pretensionS of this personage, 14ut it appears that she has opened a little theatre OR Ludgate-hill, and daily harangues th n e audience Who crowd before her door, to the ant of passengers. Mr. PARKINS had traced her egg and bird, as the saying is, and had fully deve loped her history, but the Royal Dame does not condescend to notice the statement of her quon dam friend, though apparently supported by a train of indisputable facts. The following is the last Proclamation from her pseudo-highness of the Court of Cumberland : TO THE RIGHT HONOURABLE LORD SIDMOUTH. MY LORD—WI - len I reflect on the injuries I have received by the refusal of your Lordship to forward my claims in a pr.op er way to his Majesty, I consider it as a duty that I owe to my high descent to inquire of your Lordship why I have been suffered to remain so long neglected, and de- Privet' of the rights which, in common with other younger branches of the Royal Family, I am entitled to ? As soon as the demise of my late Royal Uncle, his late Majesty, occurred, I addressed your Lordship, for his present Majesty's gracious knowledge. In my letters repeatedly sent to your Lordship, I assured you, for the King's knowledge, that I had but one anxious desire, which was, to act in conformity to his Majesty's Royal will and pleasure, after an audience had been allowed—to shew my papers. If, my Lord, I had been an impostor, it was the dutyof Ministers to have inquired into my c laims, and to have exposed them, if unjust or illegal.' But, no! my L ord; every application was treated with cold and apathe tic contempt; and although all the writings of my parents' mar riage and my birth have been verified according to law at Jadge Abbott's Chambers, Serjeant's Inn —at Master Si- Ineon'a office, Court of Chancery—before Sir Robert Baker, arid Barber Beaumont, Esq—and twelve affidavits sworn arid sent into your Lordship ; yet at this late moment I find myself neglected and opp....ssed, and without one guinea of SUPport from the Government or Royal Family !—My dear late cousin, Prince Edward , Duke of Kent, supported and Protected me several years before his lamented death. His Royal Highness saw the p apers d e li vered to me by the late Earl of Warwick of my legitimacy, and there are at least a hundred papers connected with my parents' affairs and my °lvo ; and General Wetherall, Comptroller to his late Royal highness, looked over many such papers at my res id ence in his Royal Master's lifetime. The excellent heart of the litte Duke of Kent was of a nature to decide, in all events of life meeting his eye, with religion and moral justice. Thus he loved and cherished me, his cousin ; and solemnly bound himself to see me righted the moment that the death of his late 3lajesty authorised my papers meeting the eye of the nation. My Lord, you WELL KNOW why my claims are neglected —A ExlsTs! But it is a duty that I owe to my- sAs elf and the ENGLISH NATION, to give a narrative of facts Tiir ARE, unless immediate justice is done me. lam Olive, the only child of the late Duke of Cumberland, by Oli via, his virtuous ixn-RED wife; and very shortly the pub lic shall know the great and forbearing conduct of Dr. Wil 111°t- To him, at one p er i o d , t h e English were indebted for t'ithquillity: it can be PROVED, my Lord. And although s:bay health is similar to the late injured Queen's (my first con -1), f rom having experienced every d eprivation and persecu- O n from interested enemies, yet I religiously trust the time is not remote when truth will triumph over calumny and op pression. I /Ave -the honour to be, thy Lord, Your obedient Servant, Lulgate•hill, Noy, 6, 1321 OLIVE.

O.—After two days disagree ably stormy and very damp, the weather changed to dry and frosty yesterday, and has so continued since. It is still anticipated that our beloved and gracious SOVEREION will be hi.re by the 20th. A design, some time since planned, is now in pro cess in the enclosed grounds of the Pavilion— that of forming a subterraneous arched passage from Church-street into the Palace, intended chiefly for the ingress and egress of the musicians of the Royal Bind, and which will give a new and interesting feature to the elegant edifice. This arch will pass under the foundatio❑ of - the extensive stabling, and occasion.new directions - to be given to one or two branches of the common sewer. A great number of workmen have been employed in this improvement for several days past, and should the weather turn out favourable the whole will reach completion at no very dis tand period. The whole of the gas tubes, for lighting the west front of the Palace, are now sunk ; those on the east will be finished in a day or two. ST. JAmee's PARK.—The preparations for lighting St. James's Park with gas are now in a considerable state of forwardness ; and conse quently in a very short time an intolerable and most disgusting nuisance will be converted to a great public convenience and advantage. The expellee attending this commendable project will he defrayed by the produce of the admission tickets to the Parks on the occasion of the ever memorable Jubilee of 1814, in commemoration of the Peace of that year, which though not suffi cient to be placed in aid of any great national establishment, will be more than ample for this very desirable purpose.

The KING, when he saw the young son of the Duke of CAMURIDGE for the first time, asked him if he could speak ! The infant immediately re plied—" God save the King!" His MAJESTY delights in telling the following story :—ln Ireland, at Lord TAI.BoT%;, ME Y Ell, the German tailor, or some other German in the Royal suite, could not make himself understood ; upon which the KING asked one of his Irish at tendants, whether there was any person in the house who spoke German ? The servant replied that he would inquire, and returned, saying —no; but that he had a cousin who played the G erman flute, if that would do. If 131s11 does not sell another Capital the whole Lottery, he has already got more than his proportion; but it by no means follows, that be cause he sold every Capital drawn First Day, above the value of XWD, he is not t o se ll any more. We generally fired luck in clusters, and many folks set it down for certain, that as he has begun so well he will finish better, and pro bably sell the other Two c e30,000 yet in the W heel, t. 6 t T,.i.i.V% MAN. [Versified froth an APoLoGux by Dr. SHERIDAN Affliction, one day, as she hark'd to the roar Of the stormy and struggling Drew a beautiful form an the :iand3 of the shore; With the branch of a weeiiing; willow !

He is mine, said Afilietion—l gave him his birth--; I alone am his cause of creation ; The materials were furnished kyy me', answered Earth; I gave him, said Jove, animation ! The Gads, all assembled b solemn Divan, After heating each claimant's petition, Pronounced a definitive verdiet on Man, And thus settled his fate's disposition : Let Affliction possess her own child till the woes Of life cease to hara4S and goad it ; After death give his 1..0dy to Earth, whence it rose; 'And his spirit to Jove, who hestow'd it ! -CORN LODGMENT.—It is rticorriaiended, when an exuberant crop of oats, .Wheat, barley, &c. is totally beaten down, and its destriiction antici pated from the lodgment of the ear in a moist and evaporating -surface, that stakes, the thick ness of hop-poles, of length proportioned to the height of the stalk, be firmly fixed in the ground, in regular line, at intervals of fifteen or twenty yards, and that a strong. rope, made of hay or straw, be firmly attached to the stakes through out the whole line, so that that part of the corn adjacent to the rope maybe thrown over it in as great quantity as the strength of the rope and other circumstances will admit of. This line being formed and corn arranged judicioudy, a second line is to be similarly adjusted, at a regu lated distance from the other, and the same rules in the manner of arrangement are to be observed. A taing, breeze acting on corn thus disposed will undoubtedly Save from ruin what-otherwise must perish, from the .continual wet• and eva poration of a moistened surface.: MILK.---It is ascertained that morning's milk commonly yields same hundredths more cream than the evening's, at the same temperature. That milked at noon furnishes the least. It would. therefore, be of advantage, in waking butter and cheese, to employ the morning's .milk, and to keep the evening's for domestic use. In milking cows, this singular phenomenon is observed, that the milk obtained from one and the same milking differs considerably in quality ; that, contrary to what might be expected, the first drawn milk is not the best, but that which is obtained last contains invariably the largest portion of cream. Every regular dairy-man knows that the last drawn milk, called strippings, is by far the richest, and that theie is a gra:dation of fulness, from the lirst milking to - the last. ORIGIN OF TURI►ANS.--The Eastern custom of wearing turbans, (says Sir H ENRY BLOUNT), came from the Levantines on this occasion : " The Barbarians fighting with the Grecian army at a great disadvantage at Thermopylw, found there was no other remedy but that some few should force the narrow passage, while the main► body of the army might escape away. They ere brave spirits who undertook it ; knowing they went to an inevitable death, they had care of nothing but sepulture, which of old was much regarded ; wherefore each of them carried his winding sheet wrapped about his head, and th€n, with the loss of their own lives, saved their fel lows ; whereupon, for an honourable memorial of that exploit, the Levantines used to wrap white linen about their heads; which custom was adopted by the Turks." , , ' ' le `.. , ,,: 5 4 : "!

NEW ORLVANS, SEPT . . 12.--A- Pous Roißrn. The commander of a piratical vessel, after. robbing the ship Orleans, penciled in the French language, and delivered or sent to a United States officer, a passenger on board the Orleans, a note, of.which the following is a transration-:—.- " At sea, and in good luck.

His mark was the snipe, but the partridge rising at the same mo ment, they felt together. The idea of re-building Ranelagh; is likely to be speedily adopted.

Gentleman to become a surety for one of his flock, who had been recently apprehended, had instigated them W send such a notice to their Pastor.—(Dubliri Cortcspondent, Nov. 5.)

(who officiated fur his father, who was unable to attend on account of the injury he sustained by the accident the preceding day,) on view of the body of 31r. William liar riSon, aged 118. The 'Jury being sworn, proceeded to take a view of the body, which lay in a room on the attic story of the house, No. 8, Ben nemstreet, Rathbone-place, where the de ceased had lodged for 29 years. The room presented a most wretched appearance ; the furniture consisted of one old chair; a table, a trunk or two, ar.d an old stump bedstead and a bed of straw on which tie deceased lied laid; in one curer was a heap of ashes, :led the cupboard contained a few potatoe peelines and a stale roll. The body of the deceased, which lay in a coffin, presented a picture of the extremest misery and starvation, al though he had no family, and had property in the funds to the whoa nt of 1 ":1101.-s!rs. A. 'Jordon deposed that she was house keeper to Mrs. C. St. Paull, at the Vicarage. Ilouge, Putney; she knew the deceased, !did was in the habit of canine; on him when she came to town; he possessed considerable property, although he lived in the greatest obscurity, and would let no person but witness enter his room, which he always kept padlocked inside for fear of being robbed ; `he laid-on his bed in the day time and sat up atnight without any fire and burning a lamp. On Satur day evening, about seven o'clock, witness called on the deceased, who was then very indisposed ' • he said that many p e ople would be very glad to fi nger hi s cash, but they should riot; on witness leaving him, she said she would call again the following day ; he then desired hei to lock him in, and take the key with her; she for some time objected, but he persisted in it; she did hick him in and put the key in her pocket, and on her going next day, at about two o'clock, she found the de ceased lying on his bed with clothes on, quite dead. He had made his will about six months ago, • wherein he had a pp o i nte d her executrix t o his p ro p e rty, which was divided between witness and the nephew and niece of the deceeased. He had been married, and had a daughter, but his wife-and she were dead. The house he lived in was his own freehold.—Mary Frow, the niece of the deceased, deposed z , that her uncle for the last l ' , years never took his clothes oft, in which he carried large sums of money, sewn up in different- parts ; and when he di.al she had been informed that upwards of 1:100 had been found about him, which, together wide other property, was in the pos session of the executrix. Ile tier the last four years was quite childish, and never admitted any person but the last witness into his room. On the night previous to his death he sent for one oyster, half a pint of beer, and a pennyworth of figs; which he ate, and utter drinking the porter, laid himself down on the straw, where he was found dead—The Coroner brieil3 summed up the evidence, and the Jury, after a short delihera. lion, returned a verdict, that the deceased " Died by the Vie tation of Gad." MELANCHOLY ACCIDENT. Min as'roam, Nov. 6.—A most melancholy and distress ing► accident occurred in this town on Saturday evening.— Mr. Cowen, jobb*: smith, was repairing the inside of the boiler of a steam-engine at the brewery in the 'West Borough, belonging to William Baldwin, Esq., and in soldering on some pieces of iron he made use of a cement composed of sal-ammoniac, sulphur, and iron turnings, which produced such a quantity of fume, or gas, that it overpowered Cowen, and he, in a few moments, was suffocated. William Pearce, his man, being at work on the outside, and hearing a strug gling noise within, got through the aperture at the top, which was but just large enough to admit his body, and was descending to his master's assistance, When he exttaled the tunics, and fell to the bottom. An alarm was imme diately given, and a man named Oliver attempted twice to descend, but he was so powerfully affected by the effluvia, that he was compelled to relinquish the task. A large quan tity of water was now thrown into the boiler, and after some minutes had elapsed the bodies ware extricated.— Pearce was found quite dead, but some appearance of life was visible in Cowen, who was immediately taken home, and surgical assistance promptly obtained. Every means that could be devised were •rcsorted to, but all the efferts I made to restore animation proved unavailing, and he ex pired about three o'clock on Sunday morning. When the lif_less bodies of these persons were conveyed home to their families. the scenes ''were truly heart-rending. Poor ('owen has left a disconsolate widow, and six helpless little ones, and Pearce a widow and two little ones; and what renders this sad event still more afflicting is, that Pearce's wife is very near her cantinement. Both these unfortunate persons were truly honest and industrious characters, and much respect ed in their sphere of life. Cowen was exceedingly deaf, but very clever and ingenious in his business. An Inquest was taken on view of the .bodies yesterday, at the King's Head, before GEollor: BrnoEss, Esq., Mayor and Coroner. Ver. diet---“ Accidental Death, occasioned by suffixation."
