Lord Orford observed, fifty years ago, that " the Beau-
ties at Windsor ought to be engraved to illustrate the Me-
moirs of the time." It is singular that uo attempt has
been made to produce these lovely portraits in a style
worthy of the beauty and interest of the subjects. Of the
pictures at Windsor, six only have hitherto been engraved.
The present work will, therefore, supply what has long
been a desideratum in the Fine Arts.
The size of the Plates is six inches by four and a half ;
engraved by the most distinguished Artists, from Draw-
ines made by order of

BRIGHTON POLICE REPORT.

(From the Brighton Guardian.)
THURSDAY, MARCH 28•—••QU'EST QUE C'EST ?—A
queer sort of mortal skipping into the dock, made
a polite bow to the Bench, gave a grin at the clerk, and
announced his name as Monsieur Pierre ;Lamoile,
" every inch a" Frenchman.
Wise said he found Monsieur the preceding afternoon,
knocking at the doors, and with an infinity of compliments
sending up begging notes to the ladies.
Prisoner—" I presume, Sair, in making my address
English, I make mist ike.—(Laughter.) Well, you may
laugh; but, Gentilshonmes, shall I speak de English, ou
parlerai-je Fran Bois ?"
Sir D. Scorr —Oh, speak English, by all means, and
then the officer will understand you better.
Prisoner—Well, I will make my address as well as I
can. Now, Mistare Wise—
Mr. Muroftu—How long have you been in Brighton ?
Prisoner—Five day; but this is what I would say, for
what " criminalty" he bring me here ? I vant to know
if Mistare Wise can make that charge substantiate ?
BENCH—Why, he says you were begging.
Prisoner—Ab oui, Monsieur; but will he proof any
body give me nothing ?—(Laughter.)
Sir D. SCOTT—That does not signify; our law says you
must not beg.
Prisoner (shrugging his shoulders)—Vraiment ! Mon
Dieu! what law?
Sir D. SCOTT-Don't be acting here; you are not an
actor, are you? Prisoner—Why, Sair, we are all actors;
Monsieur Shakspeare says every roan acts his part—
(Laughter)—be says de world Is a stage , this is a stage ;
you act de magistrate—c'est a moi to act a very foolish part
—but n'importe, I will act it well.—(Loud laughter.)
BENCH.--SO will we act our parts well, and send you
for seven days to the treadmill.
Prisoner—Vere goot, Sare.—(Renewed laughter.)
BENCH—And mind if you come again, for three months.
Prisoner—Ah, dat very goot too, Sir; if I come
again, you shall send me for tree year.—(Laughter.)
The begging notes were then about to be returned to
the prisoner, when Sir David ordered Mr. Slight to take
them away ; upon which Monsieur Lamoile inquired with
a stare, " What! you no give me any money for them ?"
Mr. Slight replied in the negative, when the prisoner gave
a jump from the stairs, exclaiming, " Quel bete de pays."

Muscles are selling now at a penny a quart.
They cannot be good at such a pike. As this is the
season of bowel complaints, or cholera, we think it neces-
sary to give this caution.

DREAPFUL ACCIDENT TO MR. MAUDES-
LEY, THE ENGINEER.- YesterJay afternoon, about four
o'clock, as Mr. MAUDESLEY, the engineer, residing in
the Westminster-road, was proceeding in his horse and gig
to Woolwich, where he is engaged in fitting out some
Government steamers, when ne it the Broadway, at Dept-
ford, his horse, a spirited animal, took fright at some
brewers' drays, became quite unmanageable, and gallopped
off at a furious rate. Mr. M. exerted himself to arrest
his progress, but to no effect, and when near the cage, the
near wheel of his gig came in contact with a post with so
violent a concussion that Mr. M. was thrown out, and,
pitching upon his bead. his scull was fractured, and his
right shoulder dislocated. Several persons ran to his as-
sistanc,', and he was carried to the house of Mr. GLEN-
DON, the surgeon, at the corner of High-street, where
every attention was paid to his situation, but with the
exception of his shoulder being -set, nothing could be
done for him, and the unfortunate gentleman was placed
in a post chaise and conveyed with all speed to his resi-
dence, where, on inquiry last night we heard, be remains
in a very dangerous condition.

The LORD CHANCELLOR entered the House, and
presented to their Lordships a Bill for amending the pro-
ceedings in the Court of Chat eery. He would not enter
into discussion upon it, but would only mention that the
Masters in Chancery were no longer to be appointed
by the Chancellor, at his will and pleasure, but
by the Crown, at the recommendation of the Privy
Council.—(Hear, hear, hear.) He would take the
opportunity of contradicting a report which had gone
abroad, that the Country Commissioners of Bankrupt
were appointed by the Lord Chancellor, while the fact was
that they were appointed by the judges going the circuit.
The House then went into Committee on the Irish Jury
Bill, when some verbal amendments were suggested by
Lords Wicxr.ow and ELLENBOROUGH, and agreed to.
After a short conversation :cross the table between
Lords PLUNKET and ELLENBOJeOUGH, it was ordered
that the report be received to-morrow, and that the third
reading should not take place till after it was printed.
The House then adjourned till to-morrow.
