His Royal Highness the Duke of Sussex passed through

nesday Colonel Wildman gave a public breakfast at Nowatead

MISS FOOT E.—lt has been rumoured for the
last few days that the world welch! be defrauded
of the interesting piece of scandal which is ex-
pected to be developed at the approaching action
for " breach of promise," brought by bliss Foote
against Mr. !Layne. It is said that a douceur of
live hundred pounds, or thereabeutsi. to ihe in-
jured party, would compromise the matter, and

concerned in them ridiculous, from meeting the
public gaze. The proposal has, we understand,
been rejected, and active preparations are making
for the day of trial. The ordeal of a public
trial, after what has transpired, must be certainly
distressing to the young lady in question ; but at
present there is, a prima facie case in her favour
before the public, which the circumstances that
remain behind the curtain are expected rather to
corroborate than weaken.—( British Press.)

The ale brewers in London yesterday sent
circular letters to their customers, that from the

high price of malt and hops they are under the
Painful necessity of raising the ale 10s. per
barrel.
BURNS was never in Greenock but once, and
that was when about to take his passage to the West Indies.
On that occasion, however, his satirical spirit gave birth to
from harbour,
his
one caustic remark, which is too good to be lost, and has not
yet, as far as we can recollect, appeared elsewhere. Having

fortune to stumble and fall into the water between • the ship's
side and the quay. By the intrepidity and • exertions of a sea-
man, who instantly plunged in atter him, he was saved from
drowning, and brought on board with no other injury save a
sound ducking. The rescue, however, demanded a signal display
of his liberality towards his preserver, and turning round, he,
with no -small ostentation, tendered him the Win of sixpence,
as the reward of his courage and humanity. The bystanders
were astonished, and inveighed loudly against such unparalleled
meanness. Burns alone, remained silent, but when pressed to
give his opinion of the act---" Why," said he, " the gentleman
is surely ale best judge of the value of his own life."—(Greenock
Advertiser.)
WELSH A NTIQU ITIES.—The History of Woks,
by J. JoNES, Esq. L.L.D. Barrister, (just published) will
doubtless prove a valuable acquisition to the literature of the
country. The Learned Doctor has deviated from the plans of
those who have preceded him, and rejects as fables the asser-
tions of nearly all the writers on Cambrian antiquities from
Glides to Roberts. lie avoids any deep disquisition as to the
primordial occupants of Britain. In the few pages which he
bestows upon this subject, he considers the Ancient Britons, or
Cimbri, as identified with the Celtte or Galli of the continent,
and from the remains of classical antiquity, he shows that at
very. remote period, the island received an accession of Cantle-
genian, Spanish (or Iberian) and Belgic settlers. He contends
that the Oestryannides, discovered by Ilainilco 420 years prior
to the Christian era, were the British isles ; places the Cassi.
terides at Oakhanipton, in Devonshire; assigns to the term
Britannic the meaning of British Carthage, and, from a pas-
sage in Caesar respecting Suessiones, regards the Belgic set-
tlers as the remote ancestors of the modern English (Anglo
' Saxon) nation. Upon these points, and sonic other matters
in the early part of the work, we are apprehensive that pro.
fessed antiquarians will not be disposed, implicitly, to sub-
scribe to the Doctor's opinions. The whole of the chapter
respecting the Druids is highly interesting, though at vari-
ance with the traditionary accounts of them. 'he triads
which are generally supposed to contain the remains of
Druidic lore, lie asserts to have been fabricated by a few
men of Glamorgan, in the close of the fifteenth cen-
tury. The more ancient Bards of Cambria find little favour
with the Dr. The opoch when Welsh poetry attained to any
degree of perfection, he fixes about the close of the twelfth cen-
tury ; and he gives a list of the eminent bards from that period
to the present year, to which are appended sonis very flattering
specimens, in an English garb, of the productions of the most
distinguished of the herdic order. His narrative of political
events will be found highly amusing and instructive by the ge-
neral reader, whilst its illustration, by a reference to monu-
mental inscriptions, will render it doubly valuable to the anti.
quary,—his suggestions for the improvement of the ecclesiasti-
cal and juridical administration of affairs in the yrincipality
well deserve the attention of the statesman; and his tables of',
ascertaining pedigrees must prove interesting to every Cambro
Briton,
