THE DUKE OF CUMBERLAND.

Simile of our Readers may, perhaps, be at a
loss to understand whence springs the peculiar rancour with
which the Duke of Cumberland has been assailed throughout
all the-late debates upon the proposed grant to his son; or won-
der why the Opposition, who can with so much complacency
see millions and half millions voted away for objects of idle
extravagance, should find their frugal patriotism sublimed to a
phrensy, that kisses sight of all moderation and good manners,
when a" pittance is proposed for the education of him who may,
very probably, be the future King of England. To explain
this mystery, it will be necessary to go back, in the first
place, to the year 1807, when, as is pretty well knownohe
unaided interference of the Duke of !Ctnriliterland with his
Royal Father displaced the MischieVous Administration,
which was at the time in full career to overthrow the Consti-
tution. This must have laid a sufficient ground of licitred
against the Duke in the breasts of all who-lost office, or *ere
cut off from the approaches to office, upon that occasion. But
in about six years after a new emergency, which gaVe to the
Duke another occasion of saving the country from the same
pernicious faction, supplied new fuel to the flame of hatred
! which they have ever cherished against him. His Royal
Highness was supposed (vide the Twopenny Post Bag). to
! have mainly contributed to continuance in power of Mr.
Percival's administration after the expiration of the Regency
restrictions. Accitlental circumstances, and the (certainly
erroneous) feelings of the late Queen (Charlotte), gave to the
Dike's enemies an opportunity. for a triumph over him in:1016
, and 1818, which they were of course unwilling to resign: lint it is
not merely disinterested vindictive hatred, or even the fear of the
humiliating loss of their triumph, which suggests to the party the
SyStem of" foul and calumnious insinuation" (we quote honest,
manly, Sir C. Forbes) with which the Duke ispetsecuted: They
Wish to keep him out of the country, and independently of the
motive to self-expatriation furnished by an inadequate income,
they feel that nothing• would be more likely,to4lEive an honour-
able and high-spirited man in disgust froth oNTEibfes'tliari such
slanders as have been flung upon his Royal highness by men
as effectually protected one way or another from vengeance or
retribution, as the great thunder,t-nonger of the last century—
. " Say what revenge on Dennis:can be had." -
The truth is, that the
.party have (with little respect for the
King's understanding) been long hoping to wriggle themselves
into place through a private influence.; and- they regard with
angerand dismay the assemblage about the throne of Princes
like the Dukes' of York and Cumberland, possessing the un-
bounded confidence of their- Monarch and Sovereign; and re-
' solved to use that confidence solely for the public good.—The
(Dublin) Star, June 11, 1825.

ANECDOTE. OF THE !ATV. Di:. PAIZit.-Thq late
Dr. PAith, it is well known, was greatly attached to a pipe; and
wherever he went to'dine was indulged with his faVOunte whiff.
Once he was invited by a gentleman Whose wife, a finelady,
`had an intense aversion to smoking; and the following story i 9.
told- of the occasion :-The hti4Uafid, on bis.'return—" Ahy

dear, • whoni. do you think I met'ln The street' -just now,
and invited to slitie with us to-morinw ?" ":-.1 Cannot say, :•
my love, unless you tell me." " Dr. Part." 44 Very
well, love • you know I em alwayS happy to see your friends
at our table." " You are very kind, my dear v.dfe, but I most
mention one think ; the Doctor, Wherever he is indulg,ecl;
with a pipe:" " Ilideed, my dear ! then I have this to sac.;
heshall nothave that indulgence here; no gentl.- .':u shall smoile
a pipe in' my drawing-room" The hushand-9,r,:eived the case ,
was lost, and, like a. wise man, dropped the subject. On tha„ ,
morrow the doctor-came; and is select party- met Lima After A r-i
sumptuous dinner, they retired to, the drawh,g-room. The. .
doctor began to feel certain 'cravings for the' stimulating fumed" .
of his beloved pipe ; he tried to catch the eye •,f his host, but
that was constantlY. averted. The lady of the house Ni,ras'on'thl
gui vi4e ; she watched both her husband and the doCtor. At
length the reverend 'gentleman grew impatient; he addiessed
himself in a half.whisper. to his friend ; the word pipe caugbt
the ear of 'Madam, who immediately took tipon herself to answer
for her busbaud. Lady: ",Dr: Parr, I hope yOu will excuse
what I am gOing to say, but I cannot permit smoking in tot:.
drawing-room."-- Doctor : " And why not, madam ? I -
smoked a,pipe with my King, and it surely can be no offence o'
.
disgrace to a subject to permit -me the like indulgente !"
" Notwithstanditigthat; Sir, I never will allow my drawing.tddal...'
to be defiled' with the nauseous smoke of tobacco ; r have ordeio''''
a room below to he prepared for any gentlemen who wish to it
Bulge in that disagreelble habit." ' Doctor : " fsiadam
Lady, quickly.: .",Sir." Doctor : " Madam, you are --
Lady : I beg, Sir, you will not express any rudeness !"
doctor, raising his voice : 44 Madam,' you are the greatest-to-srd!
'bacco stopper in England." This sally caused a loud laugh
the expellee of the lady, and -though- the doctor had' not the.
pleasure of his 'pipe, he enjoyed the effect of his wit on the noir!
I thoroughly disconcerted and crestfallen virago.
