BRIGHTON, MARCH 4.—At divine service on Sunday,
the whole of his Majesty's suite wore the Windsor uniform,
(with the exception of the Earls Liverpool and Bathurst), and
stars. His Majesty was habited in blue, with• a black cravat
and star ; and, truly, never had we the satisfaction to behold

him in better apparent health— he officiating Ministers were
Dr. H. Pearson and the Rev. Mr.Somner, and the Sub-Dean of
St. James's Chapel, the Rev. Mr. llohnes. The sermon was
preached by Dr. Pearson, from the 4th chapter of Deutronomy,
and the 7th, Bth and 9th verses.--The Gentlemen of• the St.
James's choir, and the.,King's boys, performed the harmonious
part of the service with an effect partaking of divinity. The
body of the Chapel was crowded by Nobility and townsfolks,
admitted by tickets. The Dean of Hereford was absent through
indisposition—he is confined to his chanibe: with the gout.

BALLAD.
Lord RONALD must jam the battle—
Will he return again ?
He left his infant sleeping,
And-Lady Alice weeping,
But his merry men were keeping
Their watch upon the plain.
Bright rose the morning Sun,
Ere it sunk the fight was done;

And the victory ;as won !
Hark ! what a shriek was there !
' See the Lady, with her feet all bare,
With haggard eycs and streaming hair,
How she wanders o'er the plain !I
Alas ! Lord RONALD cloth she seek
His forehead stain'd with gory streak, .
With stiffen'd form and ghastly cheek
He lies among the slain !
•The hymn is sung—the mass is said—
Whence are those sounds so drear ?
'Tis the wail above the dead—
Sleeps Lord RONALD on the bier;
And has the Lady not one tear
Over him to shed ?
How wildly she glares around—
See she sinks upon the ground— •
Her spirit's fled !

KING'S THEATRE.-La Gaza Ladra was

brought forward last night for the first time
this season,, and before a very numerous and
splendid audience. It is highly creditable to
the composer, Rossum and derived all requi-
site support from Can't°Nl, an excellent actor as
well as singer, and from Signora CARADORI, a
pretty and pleasing actress with good-humoured
English features, and Madame CAMPORESE. The
piece was very well received. A pastoral Ballet
was introduced at the end of the first act, and
the whole corps of Dancers exerted themselves
very successfully.
BARTLEMAN'.—The musical friends and ad-
mirers of this excellent Singer have expressed
their surprise and regret that no harmonic tri-
bute has yet been paid to his memory. We
hear, however, with pleasure that his Mend
.11.AwEs has employed his talents on the subject,
and from his taste and knowledge as a composer
something may be expected worthy of departed
genius.

Mr. QUICK, so long one of the chief -comic
props of Covent Garden Theatre, is alive, in
good health, and in the full possession of his
mental powers. Altogether the public have not
seen his equal its any of his successors. If is
strange that he never took a formal leave of the
public, like most of his contemporaries. It is not
yet too late, we conceive, as the public would
'doubtless be glad to see so old and, deserving a
favourite, and he would certainly, as lago says,
'" put money in his purse."
SEAmEN's HosPITAL.---The first Anniversary of
this most excellent Charity was commemorated
yesterday at the London Tavern, by above one
hundred and fifty Gentlemen of high respect-
ability. In consequence of the unavoidable ab-
sence of Lord MELVILLE, Lord EXMOUTH pre-
sided ; and among the company we noticed Lord
Torrington, Sir Pulteney Malcolm, Admiral
Digby, Wm. Manning, Esq. M. P. Thos. Wilson,
Esq. M. P. Mr. Sheriff Venables, Sze. Nothing
could' e::ceed the conviviality which reigned
throughout the evening. The affability of the
Noble Chairman, the interesting and pathetic ad-
dresses of the Worthy Treasurer and Chairman of
the Committee, and the gentlemanly attentions
of the Stewards, merited and obtained the highest
encomiums and the most enthusiastic approbation.
We are most happy- to say that the- Treasurer's
statement held forth a very flattering prospect ;
the subscriptions announced amounted. to up-
wards of 700/. It gives 'us an additional
,pleasure to_state that the Ladies were conspicu-
ous amongst the contributors. The Seamen's

Hospital is a charity pf such peculiar excellencies,
that it only requires to be known to be appre-
ciated and cordially supported ; and we sincerely
trust that successful as its first festival has been,
it will be very far surpassed iu every respect on
future anniversaries.

PARTICULARS OF THE FUNERAL OF THE LATE

CArr. LUMLEY, R.N.

PENANG, JULY 28, 1821.—Af.or so lately dwelling on the
brave exploits of a gallant Naval character in this Country, it
is With great regret that I have to announce to you his unex-
pected death, occasioned in a great measure by his excessive
exertion and exposure in the late attack upon, and subjugation
of. Mocha.

Captain JOHN RICHARD LeAILEY, of His Majesty's Ship
Topaze, who commanded and signalized himself so much in
that attack, in a series of brilliant and harrassing actions, in
Dec. and Jan. last, departed this life on board that ship, on
her passage from Madras to Prince of Wales's
island, on the
23d of July, and his shattered remains, (which had in early life
been deprived of an arm, and otherwise mutilated in his coun-
try's service), arrived here yesterday, and were this evening in-
terred in the burying ground, with all the honours due to his
rank, and with that marked and voluntary respect which his
distinguished career and his well known private virtues claimed.
and excited.

- The body was brought on shore by a pro; esiion of bo tts fi't to
the squadron to the Captain's house ; the Topke firing minute
guns, which were followed as soon as the corpse was landed, by
the guns of the Fort, until the interment. The Hon. the Go-
vernor, and the Members of the Council, the Recorder, and
the Commander of the garrison, were the Pall-bearers ; and
his Excellency the Naval Commander-in-Chief, the first•Lieu=
tenant and Master of the Topaze, attended as chief mourners ;
the coffin being preceded by the wl.ole of the garrison, as well
as the Marines of the squadrons under arms,, and a great pro-
portion of the seamen of the Topaze and Leander, and follow'ed
by almost every individual of rank and respectability in the
Island, and by all the Officers of His Majesty's Ships that
could be spared from duty. It is worthy of remark, that a
more than usual concourse of Natives attended• upon this occa-
sion, and evinced, with the utmost solemnity and decorum, a pe-
culiar interest in the affecting grandeur and warmth of feeling
which was displayed by this mournful token of respect to a de-
parted herd. It will be some consolation to the friends of the
deceased to know, that all the attentive kindness which the
most refined and hospitable feeling could dictate, has been paid
to his disconsolate widow and infant daughter (who were on
board at the time of his death), by.the Governor of this Island,
at whose residence they will remain until their departure for
England in the Princess Royal; to sail in a few days. The.
following is the account given of Capt. Lumley's Funeral in
the Penang Gazette of the same date :
" The corpse was removed from His Majesty's Ship Topaze,
precisely at a quarter after five o'clock, under a discharge, of
minute guns, corresponding with the age of the deceased, and
accompanied by the boats, with. arties of seamen, and marines,
from His Majesty's Ships in the harbour. The whole landed
at the Navy Captain's House, where the body was received by
the whole of the troops of the station, not on duty, exsembled
or. the occasion. The procession moved at about half :past five
o'clock, attended by the Hon. the Governor, the Members of
Council, the Hon. the Recorder, His Excellenc the Comman•:
der-in-Chief of the Naval Forces, the Coltman rof the troops
on the station, the Governors and Garrison Sta , and the Gen-
tlemen of the several services on the Island, together with the
principal Gentlemen of the Settlement, and a large concourse of
0:e inhabitants.
' " The solemnity of the occasion was increased by the Band
belonging to the Topaze, which preceded the corpse to the place
of interment—The service was performed by the Chaplain c£
His Majesty's Ship Leander, and, the ceremony concluded with
the, discharge of three vollies from the troops, forming the
Funeral party.
" The Gentlemen of the Military Mess, in testimony of their
respect and attention on this melancholy occasion, have post-
poned a large Dinner Party, which was to have been given io
the Settlement yesterday, to' Thursday next, the 2d woxiniU."

MOST SINGULAR ClucbmsTANcE.—Early this
morning, the weather being very boisterous, with
an ebb tide, accompanied by a strong west, wind,
the River Thames formed four distinct islands,
between London Bridge and the new Southwark
Bridge. This phenomenon caused a vast nun -
her of spectators to assemble, who were diverted
by several boys walking across the Thames.
