TUE LATE MR. COUTTS•--Various statements
have appeared respecting the manner in which this Gentleman
has disposed of his immense property, but we understand the
following is correct :—Some time previous to his death, he set-
' tled upon Mrs. C. the sum of 600,0001. with the house in Strat-
ton-street, all the plate, linen, wines, &c.; the service of plate
is said to be the most valuable of any in this country, and tho
stock of wines greater than any two private cellars in the king-
dom; together with the house at Highgate, and all its appur-
tenances. Mrs. C. is likewise left half proprietress of his im-
mense banking establishment, with all monies due to him at the
time of decease. The sinks of the house have been made up
since his demise, and it is said there is a balance of 670,0001.
due to Mrs. C., Which will be proved under the will. It is
perfectly correct respecting the liberal offers Mrs. C. has made
to the daughters and families of her deceased husband.—(Morn-
ing Paper.)

SONNET.

Had there dwelt less of beauty in that cheek,
Whereon there lingers now so soft a tinge,—
Or did those jet dark eyes, (whose glances seek •
For shelter in their long and silken fringe,)
Shed less of angel brightness where they shiner
Yet hadst thou, Lady, reign'd within my heart,—
Thy purer spirit still had guided mine:
Then fair, and young, and spotless as thou art,
Oh ! marvel not my bosom should enshrine
Thy lovely image, whence it ne'er shall part :
And as o'er desert wilds a single star
Doth sometimes shed its solitary ray,
To guide the wand'ring pilgrim from afar,
Eir'n thus art thou to me whilst thro' the world I stray,
A. L. G.

BRIGHTON, 111.111 cit 7.—The weather here has
undergone an unfavourable alteration ; much
rain fell yesterday and to-day, and, to use a
nautical phrase, the wind has blown great guns.
The KING, in good health, has remained within
the Palace, and but few of our degrades have
been seen in public.

SUDDEN INDISPOSITION Or• THE HONOURABLE
SIR HENRY WEr.r.csr.cy.—We heard a few days
since, that this much-respected Gentleman was
taken so dangerously ill, on Saturday last, that
his life was considered in danger. We have now
the pleasnee to state, that all apprehensions are
at an end. It was a severe attack of cold, which
produced a lumbago in the back; and this in
some degree struck to his heart. Sir llEvitY
llALrottn was sent for; but ere his arrival, the
Marquis of SALISBURY'S Surgeon attended, and
instantly resorted to copious bleedings, which
the Physician declared had saved Sir HENRY'S

life. The pains were so intense ,whilst they
lasted, that the sufferer was completely exhausted.
The Duke of WELLINGTON and Lord MARY-
BOROUGH have been constant in their visits:—
(Morning Post.)

We have to correct a mis-statement in a Party
Paper, which says that Colonel CAVENDISII bore
testimony of the " truly noble and benevolent
conduct of Sir ROBERT WILSON" on the day of
the funeril. Colonel CAvENDisn (lid no such

thing. Ile spoke generally of his merits as a
soldier, bnt, in reference to that particular day,
he merely alluded to the declaration of Sir Ito-
BERT, that the appearance of the soldiers, when
attacked by the mob, was that of a boot) of ca.
valry which had been repulsed ; and he made
this reference as a strong proof, coming from a
military man, of the desperate nature of that at-
tack.--(Morning Yost, _March 9.)
DowTON is engaged to perform a few nights
at Exeter, and was to commence last night with
Falstaff, in Henry the Fourth. Why is not such
an actor on Metropolitan boards ?

A CANINE A1.13.---Lord NORTH, once speaking
in the House, was suddenly interrupted in the
midst of the most important part of his speech by a
dog,which hadtaken shelter and concealed himself
under the table of the House, then made his
escape, and ran directly across the floor, setting
up, at the same time, a violent howl. It occa-
sioned a burst of laughter, and might have dis-
concerted an ordinary man. But he, who knew
how to convert the most awkward occurrences to
purposes of advantage, having waited till the
roar which it produced had subsided, and pre-
serving all his gravity, addressed the Chair.—
" Sir," said he to the Speaker, " I have been in-
terrupted by a new member, but, as he has con-
cluded his argument, I will now resume mine."
