as the Downs early in the morning. with a large
.concourse of spectators ; but the Royal Brothtrs
and suite did not arrive till nearly three o'clock,
when the seview commenced, aid a superb spec-
tacle it was; the cavalry going through a variety of
eirolutions with rapidity anecorreetness, and the
infantry equally aSexpert. The Prince was dressed
is the rich uniform of his own regiment, with gold
spurs and stirrups; his Royal llir,hisess never
looked better. His favourite charger, as his groom
was leading it into Dorchester, the preceding even-
ing, hod the misfortune to fall sod break his knees
deplorably.
At night the Royal Brothers honoured Mr. C.'s
ball with their pretence. The Prince danced with
the beautiful Countess Craven. Some of InrettO's
wonderful tire-works astonished the surrounding
country in rockets, fire-balls, and furnace% pouring
twin their liquid Baines. The Esplanade was alive
*to a late hour, and the town was partially illumi-
nated, chiefly by the traleuieu of the Royal Fa-
mily, Hotel, &c.
Yesterday the Prince and his brother inspected
the horse barracks to the north of this place, the
.I.e. which altovther form a little
town, most ugnlarly bail'. They afterwards pro-
ceeded to the Downs, where the cavalry had •
sham fight. The Prince was very active, riding
*fro.o pant to post, and scaling some precipices with
Fist ardour. The t:sintnaiiiier of the German

of 70 years in the service. During the review, a
messenger arrived to the Prince with an account of
the 13,000 Spaniards having revolted from the
French, and declaring for their brethren in arms,
had put tleauselves under the protection of the
British fleet. An evident appearance of good news
was seen by the surrounding conenu rte. and shortly
alter the whole of the legion joined in siegin;

officers gave a most superb dinner at Seri-

their suite. Upwards of thirty per,init4 sat down to

were fire-works let off from a boat stationed at
some distance in the Bay, which hail • new and

We henr that an order was sera Yesterday, front
Dublin Castle. to Armagh. for the execution of
Major Campbell, this (lily. fllzior C. is nearly re-
lated to the Eari of Ereadaflame.
A few days ago a duel wil3 fought at some dis-
Unix from Killarney, in the Cork direction,
twcen Thomas Pierce, of Castle I.laud. Esq. and
Cant. Shuldom, of the Longford Militia. The
former was attended by John Alasen. of Castle
Island, Esq. and the latter by Capt. Sendys, of
same regiment. E*ch having exchanged two shuts,
without any injury• the business was happily ac-
commodated.

t)u Sunday last, a very fine brig, burden 150
tons, and built for Messrs. John uud Thomas Jail:-
rott, of Tralee,was launched, at the quay of Bleu-
!Royale. This vessel is by much the largest that
.has ever been built in that county, so far as we
hate learned and while the enterprise bespeaks
the spirit and rising ptosperity of the gentlemen
engaged in it, weans happy to observe that it isko
augurs well to the future progress of an import
and export trade, so highly attainable in this mari-
time country. Col. Herbert has warmly cherished
the object of improving the state of that harbour,
and has resolved on calling the attention of the
leg statute t. the important subject. •
