of the Deceased; and behind it the Groom who was

Four Mourning Coaches additional, and a number of private
Carriages tbi lowi
The whole closed by a party of the ad Regiment of Life
Guards, who attended in compliment to the

On arriving at the burying ground, at five
o'clock, considerable difficulty occurred, from the
press of the populace, in conveying the body to the
family vault; but the same being ;,t length effeeled
with due solemnity, a Troop prepared for the pur-
pose fired the customary vollies, and the whole was
concluded with the requisite order and decorum.

On Saturday the loth Light Dragoons, and the
Artillery stationed at the Barracks at Brighton; had
a field day on the Downs, near the Race course, at
which the Pit ir:c E. of WALss gave the word of
command. The Downs were never before ornament-
ed in Odobeiwith such a numerous assemblage of
fashionable speaators. In the afternoon, the ascen-
sion of a small gilded Balloon, not more than three
feet in diameter, from the Steyne, engaged the
attention of the Public. Among the most dis-
tinguished Personages present were, the Earl of
CLERMONT, the Bishop Of ST. ASAPH, Sir JOHN
and Lady LADE, Sir GREGORY PAGE TURNER,
Lady ELLENUOROUGH, &C.
The hull of the Brig Adventure, lately scuttled
off Brighton, was sold by audion at New Shoreham,
6:i Thursday, for Bzl.
We are sorry to learn that a few days ago the
Earl of MOUNTNORRIS was thrown out of a gig,
and, falling on his hip, was so dreadfully bruised
that he has been lame ever since.

Monday night a Fire-Balloon descended on a
vessel off Pickle Herring Stairs, which excited great
alarm, lest the rigging should take fire, which
happily, by the exertion of the crew on board, was
prevented. It is highly blameable in persons to
indulge themselves in this dangerous amusement.
The Duke de MORTIMER, and Mr. WRIGUIT,
of Duke-street, Manchester-square, arrived at
Brighton on Tuesday morning, in quest of a per-
son, who it is said, had defrauded the Duke out of
50°1. by altering the figures of a draft, which the
Duke paid in Ltn,don, from 7001, to I zool. A
person answering to the description given of him,
they heard at the One Tun, had embarked the
night before in the Bonaparte Packet for France,
which Packet, in consequence of the sudden tur-
bulence of the weather, had put into Shoreham har-
bwr, to which place they went in search of him.
An instance of hydrophobia occurred some
months since in a Mr. Ford, near Dumfries, in
Maryland. He felt none of the symptoms till the
37th day after he had been bitten, when, on going
to wash his hands, the sight of the water shocked
his whole frame, and produced convulsions, which
terminated, 46 hours afterwards, in his death. He
retained his senses to the last, and met his fate with
great firmness and composure of mind.
