His MAJESTY with much condescension,.re urned
the last salute, and expressed himself highly satisfied,
with the dexterous manner in which the various
evolutions were performed.
The precision and activity displayed on this oc-
casion prove the excellent discipline of the Scorch
Greys, whose courage and capacity have often dis-
tinguished them in glorious contests against the
enemies of .their Country. With very -few ex-
ceptions indeed, they. are all natives of Scotland,
and talk the broad dialed peculiar to the place of
their birth. However disagreeable this may be
to the more refio:d and delicate ear of an English-
man, yet the Corps always command the respect
and esteem of every description of their. fellow..
subjects, by their excellent and exemplary conduit
whether on or off the field. An anecdote highly-
honourable to their prowess, ought not to.be omitted
on the present occasion. They were the favourite
Regiment of GEORGE 11. who often toOk great
pleasure in demonstrating his partiality to a Corps
which had rendered his Family essential services.
When once reviewing them in Hyde-Park before a
French Field-Marshal, and a Prince of the House of
Bourbon, His MAJESTY observed to the Stranger—
" Did your RoyaP.Highness ever see a finer-Corps?"
" They are a very fine Corps indeed; but I think
inferior to the Geozs d' Armes. Did your Majesty
e •er see them ?" The KING, somewhat nettled at
the abrupt and unexpected question, replied in al.,
fusion to an archievement of the Scotch Greys, who
had once defeated and driven the .Gens d' Armes into
the Danube—". No ; (said His -Majesty) but. my-
Scorch Greys have seen them!".
Most of the Norfolk and Suffolk Troops of Yeo..
-man Cavalry have lately undergone the drilling,
&c. prescribed by the Ad, and are in consequence
exempt the duties on keeping a pleasure horse and-
wearing hair-powder.
• It appears that the gangs of villains who have
lately committed .such atrocious depredations in
London and its vieinity,• still continue their eiread-•
fit attempts. On Thoesday evening, about eight-
o'clock, as Mr. Smith, 'a Master Carpenter, was
coming along London .Wall,• •he was beset near
Winchester-street, by nine• of these ruffians, who
knocked him down, and kicked him in the face in
a most cruel manner, then robbed him ; one of
them said to another—" Cut his throat." ;le was
left on the pavement in a senseless state, till two
Gentlemen happening to come by, and obsereirg his
situation, took him into.a Public-house, and had
him taken proper care of. He now 'lies ill of the
bruises he has received.—Surely it is high. time
that the Police should rigorously interfere to .put a
stop to such proceedings, which are a disgrce to a
civilized country. ••

A Gentleman's Servant, at Camberwell, going
down the Grove, on Friday night, at nine o'clock,
was surrounded by five or six tuffianJooking fellows
in sailors habits, who took from hiin two
,guineas
and a half and two shillings in money ; they then
quietly walked off.

At Reading Fair, the dealers in cheese demanded
such high prices„ that a small quantity :only was
sold; on . the day following, however, the prices
declined nine shillings per cwr. •

neighbouring' Counties; bacon, iv ithin the last week;

,Cheese at Hereford,, on; Tuesday, declined in
price I3i. per cwt. and a great quantity Ivas car-
tied from the Fair unsold.
