Lord Dundonald has, through the instrumentality
of George Robins, sold his bemitiful villa in the Regent's
Park, and in consequence all the valuable miscellanies
and the furniture throughout the mansion are to be sold
by auction next a eek. The public view commences on
Monday and Tuesday, and the sale continues Wednes-
day, Thursday, and Friday. The Noble Earl has dis-
played much of his acknowledged taste in the works of
art which he selected during his sojourn in •Italy some
years since. The splendid chef d'auvres of Rossi are
added to the collection ; the figures of " Eve at the
Fountain," and " Musidora," will alone repay a visitor
for a journey to see them—they are equal to anything
of Canova's, and there are others that approach them in
merit. There are a few pretty pictures from the Dutch
and Flemish galleries, and some beautifully executed
bronzes. Then comes, last, " though not least in our
dear love," (Shakspere), the incomparable wines. No
one aver

FATAL FALL FROM A STEAM-AOAT.-011 Tuesday
evening, about five o'clock, whilst the Vivid steam-boat,
Captain Styles, was proceeding down the river, and when
near Kew• bridge, a child between ten and eleven years
of age, who was playing on the vessel, suddenly fell over-
board into the water. The father of the child (Captain
Styles) immediately ordered the boat to stop, and turn
astern, but the child almost instantly disappeared. A
number of small wherries were soon at the place
where the deceased fell, and every endeavour
was made by a host of watermen to save the un-
fortunate child, but without success ; and up to a late
'hour yesterday the body of the deceased had act been
recovered. The father of the child upon learning that
his son was drowned, became so dreadfully excited, that
it took several men to hold him. The mother, who was
likewise ()Aboard, was equally affected.
