noYAL VISIT VA cAswohdar.
The Ror•t. FAMILY honoured the Earl and
Countess of ESSEX with their company on Friday,
at their beautiful seat, Cashiobury Park, in Hens.
His MaJesry, accompanied.by the QULLM, in his
travelling chaise, Jeft Windsor at an early hour,
escorted by a patty of the O&M Blues. They
were followed by the five PR/I/CLUES and attend-
ants, in two coaches, and the Duke of CASIBRIDOL
in his own carriage. The town of Watford was all
life and bustle: the bell zinging, the flag hoisted
at the church, and the windows filled with people,
expelling His MAjesry would pass that way; but,
to their great disappointment, the Royal Party
went by Rickmanswurth, and arrived at Cashiobury
House at half past eleven o'clock ; on their anival
they were received by the Earl and Countess
and Dowager Countess of Essex, Viscountess
Caarri.ev, Lord ST. HELEN'S, Cal. RUSSELL,
and several other persons of rank and fashion, who
were upon a visit at that elegant and hospitable
teat. The Royal Visitors entered the house through
the three cloisters, the floors of which were covered
with crimson cloth. They seemed much pleased
with this interesting gothic struffine, and the stain-
ed glass in the windows, representing the arms of
the family, and other devices. A most sumptuous
breakfast was laid out in the dining room—a most
magnificent apartment, commanding a full view of
the park ; it is supported by tiro massy oak pillars,
beautifully varnished, and is hung with some admi-
rable portraits, including a George the Second, and
a Queen Caroline. Four curious marble slabs, with
antique supporters, are among the iticat't admired
ornaments in this room. After breakfast the Royal
Party, and the rest of the company, proceeded to
view the various apartments of this superb mansion.
Passing from the dining-room through a vestibule,
the cieling of which is painted in imitation of varie-
gated marble, with curious carved flowers suspended
along the pannels, they entered the great drawing.

eagle in the centre, and a broad moulding all round
rf burnished gold. The walls are hung with pug.
ple satin, quilled with a white India muslin drapery,
looped up with tassels and roses of gold. Four
(bony Ca iinets stand at opposite Arles, each
adorned at top with a tollellion of miniatures of
fi iends and relatives, all executed by the Countess
of Essee. The doors are ot satin wood, and the pillars
and door eases of burnished gold. The chairs are the
same as the hangings of the room with bronze feet.
window curtains are white India muslin. They
next visited the Library, in which they remained a
considerable time. It consists of tro apartments
The first, besides a most valuable collection of
books, co:stains a great variety of beautiful paint-
ings. Among the curiosities of the second is a
complete aviary, the birds all of carved wood. Ad.
joininrhis is the Chinese room, hung with Chinese
paintings, and a beautiful lamp of stained glass
suspended from the centre, with tight glass hells at
the top, which, when lighte.f, peodace the effea cf
variegated lamps. Every thing in this 103/11 is so
completely Chinese, the Emperor of Cut Si • might
mistake it far one of his own apartments. His MA-
aesr r spent a considerable time in admiring the cu-
riosities of this apartment ; and; at four o'clock,
the Royal Groupe returned to the dining-roan,
where a sumptuous dinner was laid out in a magni.

comaany retired to the second drawing-room;
beautiful apartment, hang with crimson damask,with
gold moulding.. The chairs and tables were also of
burnished gold, and everyother ornament so brilliant,
the eye was dazzled with its splendour. The furious
storm experienced in London, on Friday, extended to
Cashinbury Park, and prevented the Royal Visitors
ft an walking out and viewing the various interesting
and picturescrie seeneswhich it preselits.At sixo'clock
the Roy •t. PARTY took leave of their noble host and

hostess- and monied to ‘Vindsor, where they ar-
rived at eight o'clock. The bells were rung, and
every other demonstration of loyalty and joy was
exhibited at UlbrisLre„ and the other towns and vil-
lages through which they passed. A great num-
ber of the inhabitants in the neighbourhood of
Cashiobury Parr croudeJ to the happy spot, and par-
took of its hospitalities.—The Royal Family, and
May Me noble HOLT( of Casheoberu floari,k for forr,
were drank in many a bumper. Among the stores
in his Lordship's cellar, which co:ln:bated to the
festivity of the day, was a vat containing twelve
hogsheads of beer, with the foilowing inscription :

NOLEHAM ANNUAL SHEEP-SHEARING

Commenced on Monday last, and was attended
by his Grace the Duke of Bedford; Lord William
Russell, Earl Winehelsea, Messrs.' Montagu, Bur-
goyne, Motteux, Moore, Greggs, Toilet, Bell, Air-
ley, Buckley, Postle, Cripps, Becher, Bentitack,
Muskett, and other breeders and agriculturists.
The business commenced by viewing two drill
machines at work, which deposited rape cake re-
duced to powder, and tarnip-seed in the same drills,
by this plan one ton of rape cake will manure from
five to six acres. The company then went to Long-
lands, where a large party of farmers, &c. were as-
sembled. Here M. ,Ball's four-horse, and also a
two-horse, thrashing machine were exhibited at
work, the prize Boars and Rams examined, and the
Leicester 'Pups shewn.
About three, a very large party retired to the
Hall, and were entertained at dinner with the ac-
customed hospitality of their much honoured and
highly respeetablehost. After dinner, Mr.Cuke gave
"The KING;" "A fine Fleece, and fat Carcase ;• " Small
in size, and great in value;'

And other appropriate toasts. At six, the company
rose, and returned to Longlands, when the Luices-
ter tups were let at from 10 to .50 guineas each.
Three pens of Leicester ewes, 5 each, were sold at
16 guineas, 20 guineas, and 25 guineas; and thus
the business of the day concluded.
On Tuesday morning, an improved NOrfolk
Plough, invented by Mr. Balls, of Holt, was shewn
at work. The Rev. Thomas Crowe Munnings had
previously exhibited to tht party at the Hall, a very
neat and ingenious model of a dibbling machine,
made by a young man in the neighbourhood. The
company, on their arrival at Longlands, met a
much larger party than on the preceding day. Af-
ter viewing the clipping, the company proceeded
to witness the operation of a mowing-machine, in-
vented by Mr Burrell, of Thetford ; the extreme
wetness of the grass was unfavourable to this expe-
riment ; but, from the elle& then shewn, it was be-
-1 hived, by some present, that this machine, with
' very few improvements, might be made to execute
its work in a manner superior to the scythe, and
very expeditiously.
The prize we:hers and theaves were now examin-
ed, and South Down tups shewn.
The party having been eritettained at dinner as
on the Monday, retired about six to the 4ieep-
houses and yard, where ten pens of South Down
ewes, of revs each, were sold at from 20 to J 1 guineas

each. They then mounted their horses, &c. and
rode to Longlands, where the South Down tups
were let at from t 5 to 40 guineas each, and thus
ended the business of this day.
Wednesday morning commenced with a view of
the fat carcases of the slaughter-house. A three-
shear Leicestr;r wether of Mr. Coke's, weighed I 3 it.
lib.; and the following prize sheep,viz. Mr, Money's
Leicester w•ether, 9st 1311) —Mr. Paisley's ditto,
Ist. Illb.--Mr. Purdy's Down, Bst. 131b.—Mr.
George's ditto, 8.,t. 1211;1.—Mr. Blyth's ditto, 9st.
tub. Oa the an ival of the party at Longlands, a
:,cuffler was exhibited by Mr. Clark, and a drill on
a very improved principle, by Mess. Wilson and
;itandidr. of Lynn; this machine deposited rape-
dust and turnip•seed in a very complete and regular
manner, the crantity of which, as well as cf seed-
corn, is regulated by a screw inclosed in a box, which
being locked, the man who works the machine can
make no abet ation.

After the trial of these experiments, the company
returned to Mr. Wrignt's barn, when Mr. Rail's
Tiinishing M whine, which on the preceding day
had wheat cnly to thrash, was now tlied on a load
of barley. The thrashing of this grain being par-
ticularly interesting to the Norfolk Gentlemen, they
were highly .gratified with seeing it done so clean
and fast. A Thrashing Machine in the same barn,
eretrted by Mr. Wigful, also thrashed some wheat,
but no barley.
Alter dinner this day, the prize cups were placed
Mr. Coke, •

on the table before . who having given
" The King." and one n two other toasts, proceeded
to inform the company of the adjudication of the
prizes. The prize for the best. Leicester wether
was delivered to Mr. Charles Money ; that for the
best South Down to Mr. George, of Dunstan, oa
delivering of which Mr. Coke expressed great SA-
tisfation that one at least of the prizes was going
into East Norfolk ' • Mr. Blyth received the prize fur
the second South Down wether; Mr. Buckley for
the best Leicester tup ; and Mr. Overman for the
best South Down top ; Mr. Oakes for the best boar ;
Mr. Reeve for having irrigated the greatest quantity
of meadow, and in the best manner.
A sweepstakes had been made the day before to
estimate the weight of Mr. Coke's three-shear Lei-
cester wether, which Mr. Coke declared to have
been won by Lord Winchelsea, his estimate beii
the nearest, viz. within half a pound of the actual
weight. The company now retired to the cow
houses, where the long-horned cattle of Mr. Fuller's
bleed were sold, the yearlings at from 7 to 13k gs.
two-year olds, from 7i to 161 gs. Cows, with Calves
by their sides, at from 171 to 37 gs. Cows, not in
mix., at from 7to 34 gs. a four-year old Bull at
34 gs. and a two-year old do. Al 11; gs. a yearling
Devonshire Bull was also sold for 8 gs. The com-
pany, with the exception of a few tele& friends,
now dispersed, highly delighted with this enter-
taining and instruditive agricultural treat, and the
reception they bad met with from their venerated
host.
Mr. Cook, of -, near Aylsham. exhibited at
the I fall, a model of his thrashing mill, which was
much approved. Mr. Toilet, of Staffordshire, chewed
two Merino rains, the wool of which was exquisitely
fine. He also shewed a three-year old wether, of
the crass between the Merino and South-1)4;m,
which had never been shorn ; this sheep had retained
ks wool, which, though very fine, was of great
length ; but it was the opinion of some eminent
gentlemen present, in the wool trade, that its great
length rendered it unfit for the purposes to which
fine wool was usually applied, and that therefore it
was worth less per lb. or todd, than If it were short•
ar. It seemed to be the prevailing opinion, that
anti wool would this year be worth SI. 10s. per
todsl, some indeed talked of even a higher price.
A three-year old Leicester, bred by Mr. Coke.
was killed by Mr. E. Kett, of Norwich, aid is now
exhibiting by him, at home; it is allowed by every
one to be the largest and fittest ever seen in this
country; each quote weighed 4511 b.

LAW INTELLIciENcE.

COURT OF KING..i.BENCII, %Val-rut:wren. Just ;9.
JUnCE JoIiNISTUNIE.
The plea and demurer in the Case of Mr.Justicp
Johnstone came on to be argued in the Court of
King's-Bench.
Mr. A gaol., on the part of the prosecution stated,
that the indiftment was tot writing. composing,
printing. and publishing in the County of Middlesex,
a libel upon the Lord-Lieutenant and Government
of Ireland, to which the Defendant had pleaded the
non-jurisdiCtion of the Court to try the anion.
lie contended, the plea was had upon three
grounds; first, the Defendant had not shewn upon
his plea, that there was another Court of more
competent jurisdi&ion to try the cause; secondly.
that the cause of aelion did not arise out of the •
ordinary jurisdiction of the Court ; and lastly, as to
the person himself, it could not he contended, that
being a native of Ireland, he was not a subject of
Great Britain. and t!crefore amenable to the laws
of this kingdom, in relation to crimes committed
here.
Mr. RicuAILTISON, for the Defendant, cos
that tho plea was good, on the grounds that in
to make a person liable to the laws of the county„
he must be a resident in it, and under ha protection.
I to held this upon the principle that the defendant was
to be considered in the light of a foreigner who was not
punishable for an aft committed in this kingdom.
while he was resident in his own. Fie concluded by
uls•erving, that the Honourable Gentleman whom
he represented, did not argue this case, in order to
shrink from investigation ; but for the purpose of
having the case tried in Ireland. as he was resident
in that country all the time of the transaftion, and
had a multitude of witnesses resident there, to esta-
blish his high and honourable charter. lie had no
means to sustain his innocence in this country, and
the expence would, in the end, be more ruinous to
him than any punishment which could be initiaed
in case of convißicn.
Lord Et tau at:mouton asked, was there no crime
which might be committed against the King's
Crown and dignity in Ireland, Which the Courts of
this country had not proper jurisdtetion over.
Mr. Justice LAU, lINCZ observed, that upon the
principles on which Mr. Richardson argued the
case, a man resid-nt in Ireland might cause any
crime he pleased to be committed with imptinity in
this kingdom. It ought as well, he said, in the
Case of a man in Scotland. he might s:.oot as many
men as he pleased from the other side of the Tweed,
and not be punishable/al Engtand.
The Court deferred judgment to a future Jay.
The Static! roa Greta/it. then J/Iti, that per.
haps the Ca:Art were not aware of the consequeucea
of deferring their Lordships' judgment.
Lord ELLINIONOLGI4. We cau look to Do
consequences at present."
