BRIGHTON, MAT 17.

At the Pavilion all Is tranquil, and as dull as quiet—the
gloom which envelopes it also envelopes the town. Nothing
deserving of notice, with the few of the fashionable world
remaining with us, has minuted for several days past. The
rides and walks have been deserted during the day, and no
place of public resort has offered sufficient attraction to induce
sociable meetings in the evening. The King's visit to Ireland
is here regarded as certain. It is supposed that bis Majesty
will afterwards go to Hanover.

MAY 19.

His Majesty is expected to return to Ilse Pavilion in the
course of next week. Preparations for lighting the exterior
of the Pavilion with as hnve commenced.

TM ROYAL VISIT.
We hove the pmmlaidou of a distinguished persouage,
officially eonneeted with this country, to announce, that in
a personal eommeaseation with the Sovereign a very few
days ago, when the subject of bit Majesty's visit to Ireland
was purposely introduced, his Majesty was pleased to express
himself as follows—we may be understood as quoting his
Majesty's own words:—" Nothing shall prevent iuy going to
Ireland this summer." To this fact our character stands
pledged.—(Patriot)
The Talbot came in yesterday afternoes : the high wind
prevented her the day before. The Duke ■od Duchess of
Leiesier •od suite were on board.
The Earl and Countess of Farnham have arrived at Fano-
ham House from Dublin.

On Monday of the April Meeting the Earl of Portartimg-
ton, Fitsmaarice Caldwell, and R. S. Keetieg, Earl's. were

In the King's Bench on Saturday bail appeared
to justify in a particular action, when one of the
bail was opposed by Counsel, on the ground of in-
accuracy in the notice. The objection was held
valid by Mr. Justice BUT, who presided on the oc-
casion, but there being no such preluninary objec-
tion to the second bail, he was opposed on general
grounds, and found to be a Gentleman of very con-
siderable property. Mr. Justice BUT thru asked
the opposing Counsel whether, as there was one
good bail, he would give the parties the trouble of
serving fresh notice and appearing in Court again ?
The Learned Counsel replied that he should not,
and proceeded to examine the bail proposed, who
also proved to be a tni4ll of IsTe fortune. The
Learned Counsel then urged that his clients ought
to be allowed the costs of the opposition, which the
Judge refused. "My Lord, you are to consider
that my proceeding wow to oppose the bail is an
indulgedce to the Defendant, for which he ought to
pay."—" That may be," replied the Learned
Judge, " but we don't sell indulgences here."
On Wednesday afternoon the Earl and Countess
of Warwick arrived at Burton Hall, near Lincoln.
accompanied by Lady GRIVILLE, oneof the Earl's
sisters, and by the Countess's two sons, Lord MON-
SON and Lord BROOKS. The bells of Lincoln
were joyously rung on the occasion, this being the
Countess' first visit these three years.
The three new churches about to be erected at
Leeds are to cost 100,0001. each. Two of them are

tion of architects from London.

Farthing Loaves have been selling at Poole for
some days past.

A few days ♦ince a basking shark was caught in
Brakiesham Bits, south of Chichester. It (armored
nine feet in length, and on its being opened four
young ones were discovered, which weighed Vbs.
each.

As the season advances. the price of agricultural
produce, instead of advancing, as heretofore, slung
with it, is rather on the decline ; from which every
man of common understanding will lay his account
to a still greater fall alter the ensuing harvest._
The plain English of this is, that the rent of land
must inevitably and immediately come down, and
in a degree of which its possessors seem at this mo-
ment but little aware. If all things could be re-
stored exactly to their relative position thirty years
ago, neither hardship nor distress would ensue--
But, unfortunately, it is only in prices of stock
that the resemblance between the two periods can
be seen ; all besides is as different as poverty is
