ROYAL REVIr.W.

Monday, his Royal highness the Prince Regent, reviewed his re-
giment, the 10th Hussars, on Hounslow Heath, which attracted a
namerous body of spectators, including all the persons of fashion awl
folune residing within (weeny miles round. A most superb pavili.n
was erected fur the accommodation of the Queen and Princesses, who.

previous to his leaving America, with a draft of the repeal of
the Orders in Council, or at least an intimation that it was
the intention of Government to rescind them. On this.
however, it could hardly he expected that the American
Exectoive would found any decisive measure, and conse-
quently the tumours which have gone abroad on the subject
must he groundless, as speculation on it would at presett be
vain.

Some apprehensions have heen entertained for the safety
of the homeward-bound Jamaica fleet. These, however, are
stated to have in a great degree subsided.—The following ar-
ticle, dated New Vol k, June 24th, probably gave the alarm :-•-•-•

The P RES IDEN T has issued a Proclamation, by which
it should appear that the American Government is not
without fears, that its late violent and unpopular pro-
ceedings will cause serious divisions among the people. We
cannot but admit, that alarming disturbances, if not a rising
of the subjects of the United States, may very reasonably
be anticipated, when they feel the calamitous effects of a
war into which they have been wantonly plunged by those
whose first duty it was to ward off such an evil.

POLITICAL DIS2UISITION.

VIEW OF THE SPANISH CAMPAIGN.

The opening of the Russian war had lately attracted every
eNe towards the north, and notwithstanding the advance of
our armies in Spain, the Peninsula had ceased to be the
focus of public attention and public hope. The military
strength of Europe seemed marshalled on the opposite banks
of the Niemen, and its magnitude, the importance of the
cintest, 'and the skill and celebrity of, the commanders
engaged in it, portended no less, in the opinion of man-
kind, than the final decision of its fate. Gloomy expecta-
tion sat weighing the former fortunes of war, and antici-
pating future defeats. The retreat of the Russians within
their antient territory, the uprising of Poland, !ike Minerva
from the bead of Jupiter, ready armed for battle, the storm
slowly gathering on the Swedish shore to burst on NAPO-
LEON'S rear, all united to hold the mind in painful suspense
and anxiety, and Spain, her arduous struggle, and the ex-
ertions of her allies, were almost forgotten. The veil thus
drawn over them is now removed. The blaze of British
triumph has lightened the world, and restored the Peninsula
to its pre-eminent importance. It is now seen, that on its
fields alone true fieedom can be gained, for there only free-
men fight. The issue of the contest in the north may give
a new master to the Continent, and Trench may be suc-
ceeded by Russian despotism; the complete success of the
Spanish cause must abolish all despotic power. In the north,
the slaves of NAPOLEON contend with the serfs of Russia, and
whosoever conquers, the condition of the people must be
servitude. In Spain, a whole population, disciplined and'
encouraged by British freemen, struggle, under their
guidance, not for the restoration of an arbitrary Sovereign,
hut for the emancipation of their country from a foreign
yoke, the liberation of their lawful Prince, and the esta-
blishment of a limited Monarchy. Hence success must plant
a portion of British freedom on the Continent, where,
having once taken root in a fruitful soil, it will progressively
spread over the face of the earth, and restore to mankind the
legitimate use of its rights. Our Constitution will then be.
come a legislative model, not only, as in former years, to
be admired and envied, but to be adopted, or rather imitated
with the modifications which circumstances may render ne-
cessary. We shall then cease, it is true, to be the only
nation blessed with the enjoyment of freedom ; but the sa-
tisfaction of having contributed to the general happiness,
and the gratitude of mankind, will more than repay us for
the sacrifice of our pride. It now remains to examine how
far the accomplishment of that great object, which depends
entirely on the ultimate success of the Spanish cause, has
been advanced by the operations of onr arid!.

BArrLE OF SALAMANCA.

In another part of our Coltnnns will be found the Exrn on DTN Rl'
GAZETTE, giving a modest account of the n►o,t Glorious Victory
gained for a whole century bV our arms. The substance we published
early last Sunday in a Second Edition. We should have kid befit,
our Readers some explanatory remarks on the operations devilled in
this document, had we rot thought it would be more satistactory to
them to be presented with a Map of the scene of action and a Plan of
the battle. This highly interesting Plate, executed by a distinguished
Artist, can only be completed by the Engraver for out next Number.
in which it will appear with appropriate illustrations.
Orders should be sent early to the Office or giyen to Newsmen, as
otherwise, on account of the very extensive circulation of this Paper, it
would be difficult to procure any Number after the day of publication.

CONSEQUENCES OF THE GREAT VICTORY.

The victory of Salamanca, unlike most of the battles "won
by our arms in Spain, was not of a defensive nature. It
was not the sanguinary repulse of an enemy, who after
vain efforts at breaking our line, is sutrered to retire unpur-
sued, and is thus able, by the good order of his march, to
disguise the extent of his discomfiture, and to make his
ieireat appear a matter of choice rather than of necessity.
It was a victory so complete, attended with such ruin to the
conquered, and such glory and advantages to the con-
querors, as to leave the former no means of concealing his
disgrace, and the latter no brighter laurels to acquire.—
Seven thousand prisoners, with eagles, colours, a►►d artil-
lery taken on the field, are pledges of no common triumph.
And the incessant flight and pursuit of the routed enemy,
satisfactorily show the relative state of the two armies after
the action. The one so broken in spirit, and dispersed in
numbers, as to fall piecemeal and unresisting into our
hands. The other marching with increased confidence,
with numbers little impaired by the sword, and restless ac-
tivity, against the scattered remains of the flying foe, and
carrying freedom and exnitation into the very heart of
Spain.

The first immediate consequence of this memorable vic-
tory will be the liberation of the provinces lying between
the enemy and the Pyrenees. For, if M ARMOIST wishes

The Russian gun-boats, so long expected, and at one time so anxi-
ously desired. arrived here on the 31st ultimo, and now form a niost
important acquisition to the defence of the place.
The way Captain Stewart has conducted himself in the command
of the Russian and English gun.boats, is high.y praisvworthy, and
his unremitting activity, so creditable to the country, has been wil-
lingly imitated by the officers and men of the Aboukir and R
who are placed under his orders; they have unquestionaluy kept the
enemy from crossing the rivet, at the tails shove the town, where a
body of infantry and horse still remain intrenched ; thy onl) tone
they ever advanced towards the boats they were disp ised in a very

maintain the integrity of the Constitution These attempts,
however, have failed, and their unpopular i:y or:en
clearly displayed by the triumph of men of other nrinei!Ot's,
in the general election now closing. But though the views
of factions have been defeated, and the empire re“-ued f,oln
the fangs of a bold and. rapacious Democracy ; though the
influence of the Lower House in the State is not become so
powerf:l as to bear down the Throne or the Nobility, et it is
in that branch of the Legislature that changes have occut rvd,
which require the eye of inquiry, if not the hand of cor-
rection.

Reformers, active in the propagation of their political
tenets, and eager to attain their longed-for pre-eininence,
created imaginary or doubtful grievances, which they wt'll
knew a skilful and daring tongue could clothe in pl .usibility.
Against these children of their own imaginations, they wee,d
a most unnatural war. They represented them r,s tie sole
causes of the weight of taxation, and of the distress ex hti nz in
various parts of the country. Political sharp-shooter s, they
made them the marks at which the bolts of their eloquence
were hurled : but instead of fulfilling their premises to the
people, and satisfying the expectations they had raised, by
effecting the correction of abuses and the cure of evils, they
have incurred the contempt of their followers, through their
own imprudence iu directing the full tide of public ind!gna-
tiou mostly against abuses or evils which no human rower
could remove, as they chiefly existed in their representa-
tion=, or in the imaginations which these had distempered.
llod they been contented with pointing out real defects,-the'y
would still retain their credit ; for these might have been
exposed too clearly. for all the power of sophistry to conceal
or justify there But they went beyond reality, and no
wonder then they should have been lost on rocks and ,lioals
of their own seeking.
The chief evil which, in their pretended zeal for the
public good, they thought proper to pass over in silence,
(probably because, although dangerous in its tendency. it
could not be attributed to Government, but rather to the
improvidence of the People,) is the rapid decrease, in out
national representation, of the old landed interest, whirls
forms the real basis and reservoir of our strength. Mer-
chants from the East and from the West, from the North
and from the South ; officers whose principal s%nrce of
revenue is their sword, and who are called by the occur-
rences of war away from the performance of civil duties;' law-
yers, whose profession demands their chief study and attention,
are becoming the kpresentatives of a people. whose intere-ts
frequently clash with their own, to the prejudice of the old

MIDDLESEX SESSIONS.

Thursday, an appeal which had excited considerable interest. was
beard before a full Bench of upwards of tory Magi,trates. The to.-
lowing were the circumstas-..1s :—An information had been I:lid by
the district surveyor, Mr. Kismaird, againit Mr. Somne, of No 13,

present improvement and decoration these,t, three feet six inch-s
beyond the adjoining houses, and the general front of that si a of as^
square, contrary to the Building Act, of the 11th of the King. The
magistra•es at Bow-street (betisre whom the information was lodged)
acquitted the defendant from the charge of nuisance, on the ground
that he hail a right to build on Isis own freehold—Against that de-
cision Mr. Kinnaint now appealed, ;.s bin contrary to the provisions
of the Act above recited.—After Counsel had bten 'lewd on both
sides, the Chairman,. Mr. Mainwaring, observed, it was a case of
much public interest, and of great ilea.tht as well as difficulty in hi*
mind, and those of several other M ; he therefore recons-
mcnded an application to be made to she Court f King's lituch, for
their decision.—This proposition was a!opted.

AGRICULTURAL REPOR TOR OCTOBER.

The wet weather in the early par t of List month has been somewhat
tirrlavourul•le to the latter Ilarvemt ; a few fields of late sown barley
and outs have been exposed to the rains; and considerable breadth, of
beans, inconsequence of the large leaf and great quantity of sap pro.
(laced by the late fruitful season, required much field-room before they
wvre fit for the cart. These are impressive lessous to farmers, end inr.:
culcate the benefit of an early seerlaime.
The late rains have been propitious to the wheat sowing, which is
ex:ending to greater breadths than can be recollected for many yr-ars.
The new wheats yit Id well to the flail, and of the finest lay ; :11
many districts it is already ascertained, that the averv. prmitl;:e will
be double .hat of last }tar. Barley rises of a strong irraltir:fr quality,

POLITICAL 1)1S'211ISITION.

1311' AWE OF POWER IN THE CONSTITUTION.

The beauty and excellence of our Constitution have been
ackiwwledgeil and admit ed by all nations. The checks formed
by its three branches upon each other, are considered ca-
pable of insuring the solidity of the edifice, and the seem ity
of those who live beneath its shelter. The Peers on the one
band, and the Commons on the other, compose two scales
which the Regal Authority, as the head of the balance, keeps
in a just anti salutary equipoise. The sovereign power and
aspiring majesty of the Throne, the amhition of the Nobles,
and the turbulent reqlessecss of the Peop!e, encounter
exlt other at every point, and oppose impassable bartiers to
encroachments on their respective privileges. But
although the proportions of our Constitution remain the
same, its frame, like every other work of man, has a ten-
dency to decay, the first symptoms of which, without join-
in,; in the unfounded clamours of pretended Reformers, it
behoves every honest man to point out, in order that it
should be checked and remedied. A palace. may retain. all
its external grandeur, although the oak that originally sup-
potted the structure has, in occasional repairs, been replaced
by deal ; but the cautious architect will no sooner ascertain
the weakness of the substituted beams, but he will restore the
oak to its place, and to the fabric its pristine solidity.
The equipoise maintained between the three legislative
weights in our Constitution, must be impaired by any increase
or deterioration which may happen to any of them. The first
subject of inquiry is, diet efore, which has experienced that en-
crem or deterioration ? The Crown, notwithstanding the wild
outcry against the alleged augmentation of its patronage, has
(lily acquired a degree of additional influence (if any) pro-
portionate to the augmented power of its opponents, and
therefore wholesome and even necessary to the health of the
State. Otherwise it would have sunk into a tool of the proud
and overbearing Aristocracy lately headed by two Opposi-
Ilan Peers, and stiengthened by the accession of a Noble
Marquis, of different principles, but of equal vanity and am•
bition; or it would have become the sporting toy of mobs
and their leaders. The Peers, encreafxd in numloers, but
too divided among themselves to pursue any common object,
leave not attained any superior weight in the constitgtioual
scale. The Commons, or rather some of the parties of
Which they are composed, have struggled hard for power.
Availing themselves of the temporary weakness•of the ruling
fLuthority, they have endeavoured to turn the calamity which
afflicted their Sovereign to their own advantage. For that
Purpose they have directed the popular clamours which they
raised, dtainst the pretended encrease of Crown influence.,
21x1 preached up the necessity of a particular kind of reform

SIR FRANCIS BURDETT.

We hive d• rived much amusement from the perusal of a yen►, long
,ns.ertarion, in the loim of an Address to the Electors of Southwark,
1•y Sir F. Bartlett. Mr. Thornton (►he Member returned for that Bo-
yo-Jgh, in ovpositon to the br..ther of the sapient Sir Francis) seems to
baye incurred the displeasure of the Baronet ; and the cause of the
presc.t burst of rave from the worthy Baronet is merely a little truth,
which Mr. Thornton mentioned in an address to the Electors of South-
w►ek, namely, that the views of reform entertained by Sir Panels and
his brother were wit rational. The most entertaining circumstance in
Cie whole of this farce is, that Sir Francis begins by saying that he
dues not consider the conduct of Mr. Thornton worth his notice ; and
to prove this he writes a whole column in a Morning Paper, inveigh-
ing most bitterly agliinst Mr. Thornton, abusing him grossly, and end-
ing, the whsle by asserting, in the most unqualified manner, that Mr.
Thornton has uttered a falsehood.

animal bones, of a magnitude considerably greater than any
quadrupeds they had ever seen on their taking them up, and ex-
posing them to the rays of the sun, they crumbled away, except six
poitioni, of a firmer texture, which remain in nearly a perfect state;
these prove to be two grinders and four ot-the cutting teeth of an elm
pliant ; they are quite in a mineralized state, and were found with
their rnasticati ig surfaces in contact, parallel with each other, as if
the upper and lower jaw-hones had mouldered and fallen away front
