TII E KING.

WlNnson, JUNE 20.—This morning his MAJESTr arrived
at the Royal Lodge in the Great Park, from Carlton Palace, in
his travelling carriage and four. The King was attended by
the Marquis Conyngham, Lord Forester, and the very Rev.
the Dean of Chichester. Soon after their arrival at the Lodge,
his Majesty, accompanied by Lord Forester, in. his pony
phaeton, followed by the Marquis of Conyngham and the. Dean
of Chichester in a second, and attended by their out-riders,
proceeded down the Long-walk and through the Little Park to
the Castle, where they arrived at a quarter after one o'clock.
The King, without making any stay at the Palace, drove to the
Royal Mews in St. Alban's-street, whore his Majesty and party
alighted, and inspected the whole of the valuable stud ofhorses.
Shortly after two o'clock his Majesty and suite returned
through Sheet-street and the Long walk, to the Royal Lodge,
where they will dine, and then return to London. We never
recollect to have seen his Majesty in better health; and he
seemed to enjoy the bustle which his momentary arrival pro-
duced among the domestics at the Royal Mews. The time of
his Majesty's arrival at the Royal Lodge to take up his resid-
ence is not yet certain. l'estergay afternoon the band of the.
75th regiment played from two o'clock until five, on the east
side of the terrace.

ARGYLL ROOMS.
Mademoiselle DELPHINE DE SCHAUROTn gave a Concert
at the Argyll Rooms on Saturday last, which was fully and
fashionably attended. She displayed extraordinary taste, spirit,
and precision, in the manner With which she performed the
first movement of a concerto by her master, M. KALEBREN-
NER, and some variations from the grand septette of HUM-
MEL. Had not the audience been principally attracted by the
talents of this extraordinary child, they might have felt a
reasonable d isappointm en tat the absence of CA TAL xI, PASTA,
and Rossnir, who had given the most positive assurances of
their attendance, and only sent their excuses the morning of
the performance. This is a growing evil which should be
strongly opposed ; nor ought the caprice of professors, however
high their talent, to be received as an excuse for individual
injury, or the insult offered to the public by a neglect which
chews at once how far their gratitude extends for the excess of
patronage bestowed upon then).

FOOTR.—This celebrate wit, after dining one
day at the Castle at Salt-hill, finding the bill ex-
horbitant, inquired of the landlord, who present-
ed it, what was his name, " Partridge, an't please
you," replied mine host," Partridge ! resumed
Foote," it should be Woodcock, by the length
of your bill."

jzwELLErts.—The following passage In TA..
VERNIER, the celebrated jeweller and traveller,
is curiously characteristic of his profession :—A
European at Delhi complained to him that he had
polished and set a large diamond for AURUNG..
ZEBE, who had never paid him for his work.—
; " But he did not know his trade," observes TA-
VERNIER ; 66 for if he had been a little skilled in
it, he would have known how to take two or
three pieces out of the stone, and pay himself
better than the Mogul could have done."
PARISH LEARNING.—Upou examining the
ac-
counts in a village in Staffordshire, the three fol.
lowing curiosities appeared I—One of the over-
seers had made sixty-three weeks iu the year;
en item, in the other overseer's account, was for
money paid in aid of the county rats; this caused
much merriment, in which none joined more
heartily than the constable, who immediately
after produced his accounts, in which was a
charge for holding a Conquest over a man found
dead.

OTTAR, or ATTAR, OP RosEs.—The usual
method of
to gather the
put them into a still,
roses with tTeaikrilciagiythxiessp,
and
dume is,
with nearly double their weight of water, which,
when sufficiently distilled, will be highly scented
with roses ; it is then poured into shallow earthen
vessels, and exposed to the night air. The next
morning, the ottar, or essential oil, is found con-
gealed
and swimming upon the surface ; it is
carefully collected,
and preserved in small glass
bottles. One hundred lbs. of roses yield only
two or three ounces of ottar, which is not easily
obtained unadulterated, as the distillers mix it
with sandal wood, scented grass, and other oily
substances in the still. The genuine otter varies
in colours, being green, bright yellow, often of a
reddish hue.

DE MORTE,

I3Y SIR WALTER RALEIGH.
51.11,r's life's a Tragedy; his mother's womb,
From which he enters, is the tiring room ;
This spacious earth the Theatre ; and the Stage
That country which he lives in : Passions, Rage,
Folly, and Vice are actors : the first cry
The Prologue to the ensuing Tragedy.
The former act consisteth of dumb slimes ;
The second, lie to more perfection grows ;
lithe third he is a man, and doth begin
To nurture vice, and act the deeds of sin :
I'the fourth declines ; i'th' fifth diseases clog
And trouble him ; then Death's his Epilogue !

MATRIMONY.
" My dear, what makes you always yawn ?"
The wife exclaimed, her temper gone;

" Is borne so dull and dreary ?"
Not so, my love," he said ; " not so ;

But man and wife are one, you know;
And when alone I'm weary."

GRAND PIGEON MATCH.
In the Red House Inclosure, Battersea-fields, yesterday, two
Pigeon Matches took place. The first was between Messrs.
Adam Arrowsmith and Shoubridge. The match was 40 birds,
from a trap at the inclosure boundary of about 110 yards, and
it was decided as follows :—Arrowsmith 30, Shoubridge, 26.
The second match was between Osbaldeston, Esq. and
Lord Kennedy, for 500 sovereigns, at forty birds each, thirty
yards from the trap. Mr. Osbaldeston killed in the course of
his shooting• eight birds in succession, and, upon a fair calcula-
tion, half the birds at thirty yards from the trap, which is con-
sidered good shooting, and equal to sixteen from twenty-one,
at sixteen yards from the trap. Lord Kennedy was unlucky in
his shooting, and Mr. Osbaldeston won by bagging twenty-
four birds from forty.

HIS 3IAJESTY'S CORONATION FLEET.
1 NOVEL SAILING MAT CH.— Thirty-two fishermen are to sail
to-morrow, in as many common working fishing-boats, lom
Cumberland Tavern, 'Vauxhall, to Putney and back, for a
fishing-boat (built by' John Sullivan, of 'Mill Bank, Wt strnin-
ster, who was the builder of the very fast boat in which the
officers of tha Guards recently rowed from Oxford to West-
minster Bridge, in less than 16 hours). The new fishing-boat
is given by his Majesty's Coronation Fleet. The whole will
be under the very able directions of E. Nettleford, Esq. the
Commodore of his Majesty's Coronation Fleet, who humanely
suggested this pleasing mode of, from time to time, affordirg
assistance to the poor fishermen.

MARRIED, on Tuesday, the 22d instant, at
Worksop, by the Rev. J. T. STACEY, G. S. KIRK, Esq.,
Solicitor, Leicester, to ANNA MARIA, eldest daughter of the
late JOSEPH SIKES, Esq., of the Chauntrey House, Newark,
an active Magistrate for the county.
SUICIDE.--A melancholy occurrence took place
at Hitchin, Herts, on Thursday, the 24th inst. Mr. Thomas
Jeeves, a seedsman, carrying on an extensive trade in that
toyvni put a period to his existence by cutting his throat with a
razor. His motive for committing the rash act cannot be attri-
buted to pecuniary difficulties, as he is supposed to have died
worth 50,0001. He was a widower, about 00 years of age, and
has left an only child (a very fine young woman), who is un-
married. It is thought he has not made a will. He survived
till about noon of the following day, when an inquest was held
on the body, before D. TIMES, Esq. the Coroner, and a verdict
was returned of—" Insanity.”--(County chronicle.)
CORONER'S INQUEST.—An Inquest. was held on Satur-
day,
at a public-house in Castle-street, Seven Dials, on the
body of Norah Ray, aged sixty, whose death was sup-
posed to have been occasioned by violent means. The
deceased resided in Nottingham-court, a place where the
most outrageous brawls and fights nightly take place be-
tween the lower order of the Irish, of which the de-
ceased was one, and murder was every day expected to
be committed. It appeared that the deceased, her son, &c.
were invited to one O'Brian's wedding in the same court,
and having drank her quantum of gin, &c. she pitched
head foremost from her chair on the floor, without any
other damage, as was supposed, than that of 2 spilling some
liquoz'. The company, considered that Mrs: Rauyl,h'

too much Mae ruin, and, by the advice of her son, she was
put into a turn-up bedstead, in rather an awkward position.
The party broke up at three o'clock, and then the dutiful son's'
attention was called to his mother, but she, poor so
The Parish considered that there had been some unfeeling ne-
glect of the deceased, and were, therefore, anxious for inquiry ;
however after a long examination, the Jury said that the de-
ceased died through suffocation.
The children of United Schools of St.
Martin's-in-the-Fields, after being at Spring Gardens Chapel,
were invited by Mr. Governor PENN into his gardens, at the
end of New-street, and there treated by that philanthropic
Gentleman with a bun and of wine each. They were in
number 400. A Sermon for th !ir benefit was preached in the
Chapel by the Rev. G. NASTZRS, where a very handsome
collection was made.

the Court of Chancery, this morning, shortly
after the Lord Chancellor had taken his seat ea

The unt rtunate young man pleaded the most
extreme distress, and said that he had not oaten
any thing since p—terday. He was committed,
and the gaoler ordered to give him soin, food.

A DUTCH GENTLEMAN OF FASHIONABLE .EXTERTOR
summoned the hackney coachman of No. 199, tier taking more
than his legal fare. It appeared the Dutchman took the c're-
fendant's coach from Dean-sneet, Soho, to the ltesstroir on
the Hampstead-road; he then said, what is your tare coach-
m •n, who replied, half-a-crown, being one shilling hack car-
tiaze : this the Dutch Gentleman, however, considered too
much, but gave it him, and coachee was discharged. The cor:-.-
plainant soon after said he would he driven back again, whtn
the coachman demanded 1,6 d. more. Mr. Ilatts asked ti:e
Gentleman if he discharged the coach, who replied no, but the
coachman was positive to the rel erse. Then Air:HALLS said,
how was it that money passed if you had not discharged the
coachman, and instantly dismissed the case.
