PRESTON JUBILEE GUILD, SEPT:. 8.

A genteel company assembled at the Theatre by
abOut eleven, to hear a grand Morning Concert,-
which was performed in a 'temporary orchestra,
,ereaed on the Stage.
The Concert commenced with one. of HAYDN'S
grand Overtures'. The different Vocal Performers
mentioned in Ety last, acquitted themselves vcrY
respeClably. M,ci.urne DusEtt sung " Jib serenti it
mesto cielio," by CIMAR OSO, in a very capital style.
Mr. Huc es was much
.-opplauded in a concerto on
the Oboe. MISS CHEESE, only eleven years of
age, astonished every body with her wonderful
cution of -a concerto on. the. Piano FOrte. The
whole concluded with the celebratedwe, or GlO-
rious Apollo."

Although the Concert was extremely well con-
dueled find performed,. yet
_at iimes,,many of the
audience, being worn out from want of rest, occa-
sionally enjoyed a refreshing nod,.
After the Concert, Nicitor.As GR msHAw, E•sq.
the:Mayor, entertained- alarge :party in the Guild-
hall with a most sumptuous dinner.

In the.evening,•at half-past seven, a public dress
promenade was appointed to take place in both the
Halls, and when the time airiVea,
at their posts. The proineuade was carried on
in the usual style of such ;matters. Between nine
and ten o'clock several hundreds were 'assembled
the Halls, and they were not-se tired but they could
dance till a very late, or rather an early hour.
Folly As It Flies, andLthe Children in the Wood,
were aded at the Theatre for.-the benefit-of Mr
SionoNs.--,Waher, by Mr. SlDDorts. •
A number of opulent familieS are Roman Catho,
lies in this town. Several of their Ladies walked
in 'the procession, and when they approaChed the
Church they retired from the.procession intct_liouses
near the Church, and waited till it returned, the
Priest having refused them the indulgence of enter-
ing the Temple of Heretics.

A very distressing circumstance has recently:oc-
curred in the domestic establishment of Earl SP EN.
C ER, at Wimbledon : Mr. MICHAU, a Frenchman,
who has lived many years in the family, in the si-
tuation of upper servant, left Wimbledon on Mon.
Clay morning last, saying he was going to London ;
for Lord SPENCER being engaged on a shooting-
party, and Lady Si.ENo :Abseil( on a -visit to Earl
CANIDEN, he was entirely master of his time, as it
was his peculiar station to attend about their per:.
sons. Lady SPENCER revisiting Wimbledon on
Tuesday morning, inquired, as usual, for MI.
CHAU ; but he was not returned, neither did he wait
at dinner, as had been customary ; it was therefore
supposed that he had been detained in town, till on
Wednesday a punt was descried, floating at random,
on the.ex'tensiKe sheet of water which adorns \Vim_
bledon Park, and, on approaching it, a suit of
clothes, stockings, shirt, shoes; &c,; were discover-

THE Last Will of the late PRINCE HENRY °I
PRUSSIA is now published, bearing date the loth
Feb.. 18oz. The following is a Copy of it :
" I will be left in the place where I may be, wile,,
ther in bed or in a chair, till no doubt shall remain
of my death ; but while even uncertainty remains,
the drawers and closets in the chamber where 1
perforin-_ the last ad of life, shall be sealed.----
Wheo it is certain that 1 am no more, my corpse
shall he laid on a simple tent-bed. I will not trou-
ble my. domestics to adorn the ; and, since custom,
however, requires it, I will be dressed in my oldest
regimentals ; and, should my legs be swelled, air
boots shall be cut open ; it does not signify, so
they are only fit for a dead man to wear. Besides
those who place a real interest in my ions, no one
shall be permitted to see me. I will not tend to an
odious and disgusting spectacle, by being exhibited
to the Public.

" Count RapEtt shall announce my decease
to the King; at the same time telling him, that
Count DE LA ROCHE AYMON, being charged
.with my last Will as to my interment, shall after-
wards discharge a private commission, and deliver
him something from me : he shall tell 1-2.1 that,
.aecording: to ' this Will, I. an to be •interred at
Rheinsberg;- that that same desire stood `in my-
testament, which I request him to open speedily ;
. that my burial_plree was tolerable, and that I made
an Epitaph Myself, which must remain on the stone
that is to be placed at the vault on the very day of
my interment. That I desire neither flambeaux nor
lights around my coffin, it being to be closed as soon
as it-shaillt.ready awl. I put into it, not wishing
to staya mornentionger above the earth than is ne-,
cessary.to ascertain my death.

c‘ -A single person shall guard my corpse, 't°
keep—the—ems -and- dogs- from it. - -I do ryes.

an inanimate

.in or upon my coffin:- The day of interment
being.fixecl, shall have place. at noon,. if in the
winter; if summer, at four or five o'clock : with.-
' out any other pomp, my domestics shall carry n3Y„
corpse down the stairs, and through the saloon 431.-.
yellow marble, to the residence of my dissolutions:-
which-is not far off :as soon as. the coffin is put itf
there, the tombstone, which I have bad engraved,
shall be placed at the entrance by the Architet

have attended me to my death, with the Private
Seeretary 'La BEAULD, and the Architc.l
ERT, in an apartment of the Castle, after my in-
terinent. First, I profess my acknowledgments
to the Count DE LiA ROCHE AymoN, for his tender
attachment to me all the time I had the happiness of
his company. I request him to tell those GentlC
rtieri-,' that I die grateful ; that I pray them to pa/-
tea each other during their lives ;. this being the.
greatest evidence they can give the world, that 14
memory has not escaped them.
"I also wish the Count DE LARocHE AYl4O?i Ic°
call together all my Charnht.o2;,,,,
ans and Laqueys, and to have the politeness to thank-.
them, in my name, for the services which they:
have rendered me ; telling them all, from the firs.'
to the last, that I have made a Will, by which I has.c
bequeathed remembrances in money or effalsif
that each, when the King has opened it, stiff
know what my friendship or gratitude bequeaths 1
but that_it_ is natural, without disrespeet to Of
one,. for me to estimate those who, in my opinl°l
have been sincere and open, and most truly attache')
to me'; and therefore, by favouring the one 111°r6
than the other, I have only followed the impulse
of my heart. That I, moreover, being only e
ably
to dispose OTI-p—ait of my property, have not had'
it in. thy power to do more than it will be fotin,
I have done : but that I requested every one to "
satisfied; and the property Char fie-got, to consider
as- the property that, I wish to all ; I dying in tlt/?t
hope, that there can no greater-proof of a trachttiO
be given to my ashes, than that no one murmurs:
the little or the much of the distribution. IViureQverl,
I have 'recommended those-who have served•me , t,n
the King and my Heirs, not doubting but' that
of-my last testament will be executed.
"' The. Sword which I wore in the Seven iio
War, shall .be delivered to the Count DE LikROCII,
and fo r I request him, after my interment to repair r

the KING, and to assure him of my last wisho ,
