Admiralty-Off we, August 17, 1822•

A Dispatch has been received from Commodore Sir Charles
Page; dated off Berwick, the 13th inst. reporting, that after
very tempestuous weather on the preceding night, the King, in
his Majesty's yacht the Royal George, reached the entrance of
the Firth of Forth, on the morning of the 13th, but that the
wind blowing with great violence from the west north west, and
a good deal of sea getting up, the Commodore felt it his duty
to advise his Majesty to anchor for shelter in Berwick Roads,
which was accordingly done at nine A. 34.; the Royal Sove-
reign yacht being in company.

His Majesty remained in perfectly good health ; and it was
his Majesty's intention, as soon as the weather should mode-
rate, to proceed to the Firth.

A further dispatch, dated the 14th, from Leith Roads, an-
nounces that, at two P. ar. on that day, the King had reached
that anchorage, in his Majesty's yacht Royal George, attended
by the other yachts and the rest of the squadron.

The Anniversary Meeting of the Gartree Dis-
trict Committee, in aid of the Society for promoting Christian
Knowledge, which took place on' the 31st ult. at Kibworth,
was most respectably and numerously attended. After an ex-
cellent sermon by the Rev. C. L. Humr nEY' Rector of Laugh-
ton, the sum of 141. 19s. was collected in aid of the local fund.
Among the members who attended were Sir HENRY HAL-
FORD, Bart., G. A. KECK, Esq., W. F. MAJOR, the Presi-
dent, and most of the Clergy of the Deanery. The books dis-
persed during the last year by the Committee are 101 Bibles,
112 Testaments, 200 Common Prayers, 30 Psalters, and 1,126
Tracts.—ll. COLEMAN, Esq. and the Rev. C. L. Hu atr REY,

We understand that there never was known to
be so much business doing in wool as at this time—Lincoln-
shire is full of Yorkshire agents seeking to make purchases.
The price has in consequence advanced.—(Stanford Mercury.)
CHILD DItOPPING.-A fine child about five
weeks old, was the other evening found at the end of Portobello-
passage, in Lisle-street, Leicester-square, having been deserted
by its unnatural parents. It had on an old shawl, two lilac ging-
ham frOcks, calico shirt,two caps, the one linen and the other cali-
co, and wrapped up in a square piece of flannel and a blanket.
It was a:female child and apparently healthy. The day after
the above child was found, a fine boy, about two years of age,
was found in Queen-street, Soho-square, with blue eyes and
light hair; fat and wholesome, and with only four toes on the
right foot. He had on a blue striped pinafore, an old spotted
dark blue frock, a black stuffed petticoat, a pair of old stays,
a coarse linen shirt, an old pair of leather shoes. They were
both carried to St. Ann's Workhouse, where they now remain
unowned, and there is no clue' whatever to whom they belong.
