Tht• United Kingintn arrived last Wednesday at

tTnited States.

Yesterday was reviewed by his Royal Highness
the Prince of WS uss, on Hounslow Heath, the t gth
Regiment of Foot. The day proving fine; this ex-
eellent Regiment went through all their evolutions
. with so much correct exactness as to have obtained
the highest praises from his Royal Highness, who
appeared in his regimental. uniform, and looked ex-
b'emely well. His Royal Highness left Carleton
House in the morning, and "was accompanied in his
travelling coach by two other Officers.
Letters from Halifax, dated the Ist instant, state,
that. the Americans are fitting out Gun-boats to pro-
tect their coasting trade, and to prevent Ships from
evading the embargo, which is at present frequently
done, as Vessels which have cleared out for ports in
the United States sometimes make a run to the
West Indies, or.cven to Europe. .. •
The Spaniards will, if determined to defend
themselves, have incalculable advantages, owing to
the badness of the roads. In the whole Kingdom,
(except.th, vicinity of the Metropolis, and soinc of
the great towns) there is scarcely' a good public road.
'lhe soil of the Kingdom is generally loam, ;,nd after
a shower, is SG vary slippety; as to render it al ways
difficult to tread. From the is. of May, till the
middle of September, there is Ito rain, except vety
trifling, limited, and -showers. When the
wet acts in, it comes in torrents, •is of long duration,
and renders the roads iii passable.
The Asturias, in which the patriotic flame has
burst forth, consist of two Provinces, named after
their respeßive capitals, Astui ia D'Ovieilo, and As-
turia de Sititibilo. They„ are about t2O miles in
length, and tan 20 to 45 in breadth. They are
..bounded on Ahe nprtli by the ocean, on the west by
Gallicia, on the south by Old Castile and, Leon,
and on the east by Rise ty. These Provinces have
always beep distingtished fix their independence,
and their i:atiir,ti strength is great. Surrounded by
mountains,' 11,1 served as a refuge to the Spaniards
against the M..ars, by whom the. fiiitUrial/S never
Were subdued.

NUPTIAL INFIDELITY.—The affair that recently
itappened in an Inn, in Winchester, was detected,
it seen's, by the landlord, who ascended into the
bed-room, through a' trap-door,- and, finding the
Noble Paramour and the Lady together in such a
manner as would justify legal proceedings, he Mi.
inediateiy called up several of his setvants to witness
the transaaion. The gallant .made the most liberal
offers to the man, in order to induce .him to bury
, the matter in silence, but all his tenders were reject}
ed. Though it is pOper that vice should be expoied
and punished, yet the landlord is severely censured
in the neighbourhood, even by gossipping wives and
starched old maids, for his prying curiosity; and his
refusal of the pecuniary offers made to him, is not
attributed to his disinterestedness so much as to his
Wish to oblige. the husband, who, it is said, had for
sotne time suspeeted what was going for 11, ard, and
desired " mine Host" to exercise his ingenuity in
order to deist the parties.
Another case of 6tnt. eon. is likely to employ the
talents of the Bar, and which would be a matter of
some delicacy to the Gentlemen of the Long Robe,
if they were much troubled with that quality, as the
gallant icsaicl to be one of their own order. The
ACCUSt d party, positively disavows the crime Imputed.
