BPIGHTOAT, AUG. 12.

THIS being the PRINCE'S Birthday, the morn-
ing was ushered in by.Uw ringing of bells, the fir-
ing of cannon, and other demonstrations of joy.

The South Gloucester and West Essex Militia,
the ssth Regiment of Foot, and the 18th •Dragoons,
were reviewed on the Downs .this morning, between -
Lewes and Brighton, by the PR INCE. His Royal..,
Highness left the Steine at half after nine o'clock,
attended by General WHITE. The Review coil,„
menced at ten, .when the different companies went,
through their evolutions with much precision and
spirit. The firing . was regular. At half after
twelve the Review.concluded, when the PR INC E and.
a party of Ladies returned 'in a sociable and_six to
the Steine, where, after walking a short time-, the •
company separated, and the PRINCE went home.--
The PR INC E spoke in very flattecing terms of the.',
good order and regularity of the men, and comp-
mented the Officers on their great attention,
The PRINCE does not give a dinner, as was said;
His Royal Highness dines this day with Lora
LIT CAN. His Lordship provides a splendid enter-
tainment for the:Prince's friends.

The STADTHOLDER , came down yesterday, anct
dined withk the PRINCE. His Serene Highness looks
well ; he walked an hour on the Steine, in com-
pany with Mr. Hoes, and a party of Gentlemen-
Mr. HOP E arrived yesterday morning. Lord PE'
TERSHAM came last night.

Mr. WILD, who was for many years Prompter
of Covent Garden Theatre, died last Week at Li;
verpool. - He waS a well-informed man, independ-
ently of his draniatic knowledge, which was more
extensive than that of any other Theatrical Charac-
ter in thiS - Country. As a Prompter, he was assi,
duous, diligent,. and impartial, never irnproperlY
absent from his post, and equally attentive to the
highest and lowest Performer.. In the earlier pair
of his life; -he tried the profession of an Actor, brig-
not being able to execute his own conceptions 01
theatrical merit, be renounced the Sock and Buskin,
and was content to..assist others in a pursuit lot
which he did not deem himself sufficiently qualified,
though Nature had given him a good person and'
solid understanding, -- He has left a wite and severSs
children,. on whom- he has bestowed his Pioperjr,
with equal justice. Mr: WILD had often expressol.
a desire of cloSing his days at Liverpool, and liii'
chosen a spot of ground in which he wished to be
buried. The' place, we understand; was in-of.
Church-yard in.which PaLmEk, the late excellent:
Affor .of Drury--lane Theatre, is interred. It
somewhat singular, that hii wishes in this respeo/
have been gratified.- His remains were last night
to be deposited in the seleaed spot, and thecere-
rnony was to. be attended by a great number of the
Theatrical
_Body, as-well as many private fridinisi
Whom' his social, intelligent, and manly qualities

had. attached. "lie wis

more moderate diet. During this system,: his do;;
ner was, accbiding to ZIMMERMANi on the 261:;
June, '2186, as follows : 'c To begin his WA)
says the akior, " he took -a large quantity of soq't
which was made of those herbs and plants, that
were most' remarkable for heat anti strength ; 3
this he added a spoonful of flour of must:rd, an6.e•
another of ginger. After his soup, he took a 13r,b-ac

. boiled in half a bottle of brandy. He. .then ea
an Italian dish of Polenta, which consisted 6
Turkey corn and Parmesan. cheese, kneaded acnei
baked together, over which a strong gravy of Wert
was poured. His MAJESTY concluded his dill°
by. eating an, enormous dish of eel.pye." j
