The Lord Chancellor arrived in town on Sa-
turday afternoon at his mansion, Berkeley-square, and
immediately after took his departure for Brighton, whets
Lady Brougham and the 1-fou. Miss Brougham have been
residing for the benefit of their health since the beginning
of last month. His Lordship has not more than two
months in the year to relax from the toils and fatigues of
business.

Viscount Althorp arrived yesterday at his
residence in Downing-street, from his seat in Yorkshire.
The proceedings of some of the metropolitan parishes, in
respect to the as-essed taxes, is supposed to be connected
with his Lordship's return so early in the shooting season.
Eatl Giey, who with his Count-ss and family, have been
ttt Howick Hall during the last month, is expected to
arrive from the north in a few days : his Lordship's
arrival will be the signal for the Cabinet Ministers to re-
assemble. Lord Auckland is expected by the next Dutch
steam-boat from Rotterdam ; Mr. C. Grant will likewise
return from his continental trip in the course of the week.

THE DUKE OF BUCKINGHAM.—(From
Saturday's Bucks Gazette.)—Three official applications
have been made to the Duke of Buckingham on the sub-
ject of his so long unpaid subscription of 3001. No notice
was t iken of the two first ; hut the last he has just replied
to in a private lttter to the President of the Infirmary. On
Wednesday, at a meeting of the Gotvrnors for the despatch
of business, Dr. Lee informed them of this fact. His
Grace, he said, acquainted him that he had so many legal
claims to discharge, which must be first attended to, that
he could not now pay the money, but would forward it as
soon as he found it convenient.

MARRIAGE IN HIGII LIFE.---Yesterday
morning the much-talked-of marriage of Viscount Ford-
wich, the eldest son and heir of Earl and Countess Cow-
per, with Lady Anne Florence de Grey, eldest daughter of
Earl and Countess de Grey, was solemnised at St. James's
Church, in the presence of a select party of the relatives
and friends of the two noble families. After the ceremony
Earl and Countess de Grey gave a dejeune d la fourchette
at their mansion, in St. James's square, to a distinguished
party of 40 individuals. Amongst whom were present—
Prince and Princess Lieven, Prince Paul Lieven, Prince
Esterhazy, Earl of Ripon, Earl and Countess Cowper,
Lord and L.,dy Ashley, Countess of Sandwich, Earl of
Sandwich, Countess of Jersey, Hon. Captain Vyner and
Lady Mary Vyner, Lord Palmerston, Prussian Minister,
Danish Minister, and Baroness Blom, &c. After receiving
the congratulations of their numerous friends, the newly-
married couple !t ft town in their new travelling equipage
for Pansanger, Hertfordshire, to pass the honeymoon.

The death of Lord Carnarvon having created
a vacancy in the honorary local appointment of High
Steward of Newbury, the Corporation of that place offered
it to Earl Craven, who was accordingly sworn in last
week; the Noble Earl possesses considerable estates in
Berkshire. If the Marquis of Hertford would resign the
Recordership of Coventry, the oaths of which office his
Lordship has never taken, it is understood that it would be
conferred on Lord Craven, whose political opinions are
opposed to those of the Marquis.
Earl Dudley's will has, at last, been proved,
and probate granted for three hundred and fifty thousand
pounds, personal property, within the province of Canter-
busy. His Lordship has written a codicil, in his own
very neat autograph, upon note paper, by which he leaves
Lady Lyndhurst an annuity of two thousand a year, to be
paid to herself quarterly. If she attempts to sell or dispose
of the annuity, it becomes void. He likewise, by a co-
dicil, written by himself, leaves an annuity of eight hun-
dred a year to his friend Mrs. Spencer, the wife of Win.
Spencer, the poet, who is in Paris ; and a legacy of twenty-
fire thousand pounds to Mrs. Spencer's son, to be paid to
him when he is 25 years asp. Lord Dudley has not for-
gotten the pamphleteering Bishop, to whom be has left
five thousand pounds.
Extensive repairs are now going on in Wind-
sor Castle, and some of the rooms which were formerly
open to the curious, have been in consequence closed. The
ward-room, St. George's-hall, the ball-room, and the
Waterloo Gallery, are at present the chief apartments to
which the public are admitted, unless provided with a
special order from the Lord Chamberlain, when the state
apartments are shown.
HUMANITY.--Captain M. Bedlington, of

gales. Captain Bedlington, we are happy to learn, treated
these people with the greatess kindness and humanity, bad

had them on board for 14 days. CAptaln Norio, of the
Swedish ship, spoke in the highest terms of the prompt
and able manner in which Captain Bedlington came do °
to the wreck, on her first appearance, several of whose
crew he found already drowned or dead ; and he has the
satisfaction of knowing that, under Providence, he has bee's
instrumental in saving so many of his fellow c:eatures frog'
a premature death.
LABOURERS' FRIEND SOCIETY.—Her Ill6'
jesty has been graciously pleased to signify to the *ecretarY:
her intention to receive the monthly publications of this
useful institution, and to subscribe 101. annually boo'
promoting the objects of the society.

On Tuesday, September 24, a splendid go-
cup was presented to William Mules, Esq., of the Grope'
Dedham, the late master of the Essex and Suffolk Bores*
hounds, as a mark of the high esteem in whish he °1,51
held by the members of his late hunt. The cup was PI
Rented by B. R. Bedwell, Esq., of the Highlands, V
Beigholt.
Died, yesterday, at Margate, Mrs. Harrill'
the widow of Mr. Hayman, of the White Hart, Carberil't.
f:
street. It is but a few weeks since we hail to record t;
distressing suicide of Mr. Hayman, and the event had
an effect upon his widow, that it may be said she liter,'')
died of a broken heart.

SUDDEN DEATH.—Died suddenly, yester'f
day evening, the 7th inst., Mr. William Murrell, late,
Skinner-street, auctioneer. The deceased was forrnerlYlL
efficient member of the Court of Common Council for th.
ward of Farringdon Without, and his death will be
lamented by his numerous friends as well as by his %rid°t(
and children.
The novel of " The Heiress," now on the
eve of appearance, bids fair to be of greater interest'
country gentlemen and ladies than any work of fic"°l2
hitherto written for their amusement. It will probsbl
be an especial favourite in manor-houses, and it is 's'
that the peculiar aspect of society among wealthy cirsle°
in the provinces, has never been so well developed bei
fore. But this excellence is not all. The sto;Ky is one °
an unusual character.

A trial took place last week at Boulogne, ill
which a son of Sir 'William Clayton, Bart., prosecuted
l
French tailor, named hlulliere, for false arrest and VI
charge. The defence set up was that as the family ll°
en Prince they could well afford to be cheated. An Eng..:
lish seigneur, it was argued, ought to be charged re°,'se
than a simple bourgeois. We hope our fashions%
emigres will bear this in mind before they leave tbei
native land, which they are now doing in shoals.
A strange fish has been shown round the tOna
in the course of the last two or three days, which b:
caught on the mud in this harbour, and has excited tr
attention of the curious; it proves to be the Loalli",
piscatorius, Fishing-frog or Angler. This extraordirisr:r
fish is five feet long, and the mouth, when open, Se 't
three feet in circumference; teeth long, rounded, and bell,
inwards, three rows in the upper and lower jaws. (.„

RECORD OFFICE.—The new Record-oew
at the north end of Duke-street, Westminster, which ,
been erecting these three years, is nearly finished. It 1,
plain and substantial building, and viewed from the Pa it
has a good erect ; but the front, in Duke-street, wbieb
ornamented with the Royal arms, is in a nook.---a we„-;
cu/ de sac, which cannot be seen to advantage from s"ti
point whatever; and, as there is a sort of wing attsebe,,
to it, that part of the edifice, which forms an angle, is
mirably well calculated, it so intended, to collect abnce.,
ante of foul air, not likely to be dislodged by ventillatioi
or to make its escape. We are very unfortunate in generic

in selecting situations for our public buildings, to ibex

AN ACTOR DAMNING HIMSELF.'a.
Thursday the tragedy of Othello was performed at Ss
At

ford Smith as Othello, and Mr. Reynolds as la9°'
the conclusion Mr. Smith was loudly called for. Ile "of

He had given but a schoolboy's reading to the Parost
mere water-colour sketch. If he had succeeded he filed,
to have tried Richard the Third, but, as he bad ,Ijaret,
he took his leave of the stage for ever; he should

ESQUIRES AND GENTLEMEN.—On Fr
a return was made at Chelmsford by the overseers -rig,
jury lists in the different parishes, and a long di!f°,oo,l
took place as to who were in reality " esquires, b
persons being described by that title. The peri,c,,igt
esquire was as much a title of honour as baron or " JO'
Blackstone, Burn, and other authorities were referr:e
and the Bench said it seemed to he a general opioi°,ool,j
property to the amount of 300/. or 500/. a year pelt
confer the title, but this was a mistake. No Pr set
however large, would confer it •; they therefore q,
tb
parties notice, that if they did not appear on Tuesuileitras
show cause to the contrary, the esquire would be toScir
out. No oneappeartd, and the esquire was accordingli
out, the mord "gentleman" being substituted.-- C°,°
