The KING had Music at Brighton, on Saturday night, to a
large party, in the Great Music Room.
On Sunday, at the Chapel, the Service was King's in B.
The Anthem was "Sing, 0 Heavens," Kent; with Vomelli's
Sanctus, and Commandments, by particular desire. Likewise,
by desire, Attwood and T. B. Sale played after Service, which
was read by Dr. Pearson, and the Sermon by the Dean of H ere
ford, whose tcxt was, " Take heed how ye hear.' The Anthem
after was, " I was glad," which Mr. Attwood composed for
the Coronation, and which he has arranged beautifully as a
Duet for two Performers on the Organ or Pianoforte.
On Monday night, his MAJESTY had Sacred Music at his
Palace, in the new room, which was opened for the first time.
It is a beautiful octagon shape; or a sort of vestibule, in the
centre of the Palace, a fine room I'm sound, on a small scale.
The party was quite private, the Bishop of Lincoln, the Duke
of Devonshire, Count and Countess Lieven. Mr. Vaughan
sung " Comfort ye my people," the opening of the Messiah.
Mr. J. B. Sale sung " Tears such as tender fathers shed."
Master Gear, Messrs. Hawes, Vaughan, and J. B. Sale sung
" I will arise," a beautiful Quaitett Anthem, and several
others. The King was extremely well, and retired every night
exactly at twelve o'clock, very much delighted.
The Marquess of Cholmondeley entertained a party of his
distinguished fries is to dinner yesteeday, at Chohnondeley
House, Piccadilly.

GOD SAVE THE KING.-Mr. CLARK, of the
King's Chapel Royal, has, in a work recently
published, traced back from the records and
books of the Merchant Tailors' Company, that
this song was composed and sung on the escape
of King James I. from the Powder Plot, and
sung in their hall by the gentlemen and children
of his Majesty's Chapel Royal, on the day when
King James dined there, when a grand solemn
entertainment, to celebrate the event of the
King's escape from the Gunpowder Plot, was
given, and it is supposed that the Church Service
was performed previous to the entertainment, as
the Dean and Sub• Dean were present,and an organ
was erected in the flail upon the occasion, which
was on the 16th of July, 1607. Dr. John Bull
was first Professor of Music to Gresham College

in 1596, and was chosen organist to James I. in
1607, and played before the King at the above
entertainment. It appears by the Merchant
Tailors' records, that the Master of the Company
conferred with Ben Jonson, who was then
Poet Laureate, to write some verses for an
anthem, which he accordingly did, beginning with
" God save Great James our King," and Dr. John
Bull set them to music, which is the same so
universally admired now George is substitut-
ed. The whole will be found applicable to
those times; and in Dr. John Bull's MS. Cata-
logue of Music, No. 56, is " God save the King."
Another memorable composition was performed
at the above entertainment for the first time.
A Latin G race, " Non nobis Dornine," was writ-
ten for the occasion, and set to music as a Canon
by Mr. William Byord, one of the Gentlemen of
the King's Chapel, and it was sung at the King's
table for the first time.

A FaAGmENT.—The following, selected from
a paper published at Boston, America, is said to
be founded in fact :—" The wearied animal
can proceed no further," said the Doctor, as he
stopped the horse at the turnpike inn. He entered
the bar-room, inwardly cursing the bad roads,
which prevented his reaching borne before mid-
night, and seating himself by the blazing fire.
Gloomy were his meditations, which became
more so at the entrance of two men, whose
faces presented to his disturbed imagina-
tion pictures of fierce-ambition. " Six hun-
dred dollars," thought he ; " why did 1
bring them with me ? and proceed alone ? but
perhaps they may not be robbers—perhaps
they may not overtake me ; at any rate, I
will proceed." After an inspiring draught the
journey recommenced, and tremblingly alive
is the Doctor to each little noise. I see
a robber !—and with the deadly weapon at that
!lead which has so often directed the councils
of the commonwealth. And shall a life so pre-
cious to the nation be sacrificed for a little
pelf ? Shall ode vile blow deprive the country of
a hero and a statesman. No !'4 Take my
money, and spare my life !" exclaimed the son of
Galen, and cast his pocket-book at the ruffian's
feet. He waits for no reply, but applies his lash
to the jaded steed. The welcome glare of light
soon flashes on the Doctor's eyes. Assistance is
procured, and a full pursuit of the robber corn-
menced. They reached the scene of villainy ; and,
inonstrum horrendum! the terrific bandit still
maintained his post !—The weapon of death still
extended, and the robber had not yet stooped
to pick up his booty which lay at his feet. A
pump, with the hand frozen in a horizontal posi-
tion, was found to have been mistaken by the
sapient Doctor for a murderous highwayman.
