The Duke of Gloucester is expected to visit Croome, the
scat of the Earl of Coventry, on the 13th of next month.
The Duke of Meiningen left town yesterday about two
o'clock, on his return to Bushy.
The Earl of Clarendon, we are happy to hear, is consider-
ably recovered from his late indisposition.
Lady Morris Gore has returned to her residence in town
(Chester-street), after a short visit to Bottingtican, where her
two grandsons are, at Mr. John Adams's Classical and Ma-
thematical Academy.
The late Duke of Gloucester expended a considerable sum of
money in adorning and beautifying the house and gardens at
Gloucester Lodge, now inhabited by Mr. Canning. The Duke
generally resided there for some years before his death ; Mr.
Canning has, however, much improved the House, and made
many valuable additions to the hot-houses and gardens.—
There are few mansions so near town possessing so manyad-
vantages.
The sale of the Duke of Devonshire's fine estates at Wether.
by, in Yorkshire, is, it is said, intended merely as an exchange
of property. The noble domain of the Marquis of ()monde,
winch lies so contiguous to the " Princely Palace" of Chats-
worth, is likely to be added to that splendid mansion.
Harcourt house, in Cavendish-square, which has hitherto
been entirely hidden from public view, by a dark high wall,
is going to be repaired and modernised. At present this large
mansion consists of one fine suite of rooms on the ground floor,
and two or three contemptible bed-rooms above. The bed-
rooms are to be demolished, and a new story, to consist of sleep-
ing-rooms, added. The ground on which this house stands is
very extensive, and the flower garden extremely beautiful and
even extensive. We can scarcely conceive how the noble owner
of St. Leonard's-hill, at Nuneham, a seat so highly decorated
with the finest specimens of ancient and modern art, could con-
sent to rookie In a house so miserably and so meanly furnished
and appointed, as Harcourt House is at present.
Mrs. Courts and suite, accompanied by the Earl of Lauder-
dale, arrived at Dunkeld on Thursday, the 30th ult. She visit-
ed, Oust forenoon, many of the most romantic spots near the
town, with which she appeared highly delighted. The weather
proving unfavourable for the more extensive walks, she left
Dunkeld in the afternoon for the Earl of Breadalbane's noble
seat at Taymouth, where she remained nearly a week. On
Wednesday the party returned to Dunkeld, where Mrs. Courts
was to have dined with the Duke and Duchess of Athol, but
the melancholy intelligence of the death of Lord Charles Mur-
ray having just been received at Dunkeld House, she proceeded
to Perth, where she is expected to remain during the meeting of
the Perth Hunt.—( Glasgow Paper. )
A vast deal is said in the circles of high life now nearing to
the Cambrian shores, of the wonderful doings at Powis Castle.
We do not allude to the late fete, but to the diurnal banquets,
to the improvements and vast splendour of that prodigious
pile—its interior and exterior establishments. Who would not
go to India ? Talk of three hundred thousand tar the repairs
of a royal dormitory—a bagatelle ! The Cockneys can have no
idea of a thing like this.
" The Sovereign MXTVERNICII," said a sprightly English
Duchess, " cannot be a man of.husiness. He devotes too much
time to the toilette and the ladies !" To judge from the con-
versation in a salon, he is the most flippant petit maitre in ex-
istence.
" The Scythian Dandy," when in this country, introduced
tight laring, and the Circassian cream. What would " The
Animals" say to the knout 51
What would JUtt r 4 Liu Lt. say, if " The Harlot of the Seven
pith" should pay him a visit in the course of the ensuing year ?
Much more unlikely things wine. happen I
A letter from Ramsgate states—" The cryer has given notice
of an elopement, A lady in a dark brown wig, and
yellow shoes, with a young man who wears—whisker:.' rhe
old bell-weather meant, no doubt, mustachios."

ORIGIN Or THE ORDER OF KNIGIITi OF THE
ROUND TABLE.—King ARTHUR, observing many quarrels
about precedency amongst his Knights atout the year 516,
caused a Round Table to be made, at which all the Oder, in-
cluding the Sovereign himself, took their seats promiscuously ;
to this Table none were admitted but those who had given
sufficient proof of their valour and dexterity In the use of arms.
The following ig a list of the First Table of these Knights:—
Arthur, King of Great Britain,
King pions Keux de Seneschal
King Karadoc of I Yrien, the son of
Wales King Vrian

Married on Thursday last, Mr. JOSEPH WOOD,
bobbin-maker, to widow OT SWELL, both of this town. The
venerable pair had presented themselves the day before at the
altar, but on taking stock in the christening-pew, it appeared
that their united capital amounted to only one shilling, of which
sum the bride contributed five-sixths. This inability to
pay the fees delayed the wished-for consummation till the fol-
lowing day, when the inhabitants of the Bank, where the par-
ties reside, raised a subscription and sent them to church in a
coach, the driver sporting a white favour. After the ceremony,
the bridal party returned to their carriage, smoking tobacco;
but, in the hilarity of their hearts, they forgot to take up the
bride, who was obliged to hobble home, to the no small amuse-
ment of a vast number of spectators.—( Leeds Mercury.)
44 Lord BACON," says AUBREY, 44 had a de-
licate, lively, hazel eye. Dr. HAttvEY told sue
it was like the eye of a viper."
A Counsel being questioned by a Judge, to
know 44 for whom he was concerned," replied
as follows—" lam concerned, my Lord, for
the plaintiff, bust I'm employed by the defend-
ant."
