TITLE PAGE
TO RECORDS OF MY LIFE.
BY JOHN TAYLOR, ESQ.
Go faithful record of my former days,
Regard not censure, and expect not praise;
To rescue merit from oblivion's shade,
That else unknown might there in darkness fade;
Such is thy purpose, such thy leaves will show,
To honour friends, but not to wound a foe.
Whene'er my own reflections may intrude,
They sprang from action, not mere solitude ;
For, having mingled in the haunts of men,
Experience may be said to guide my pen :
'Twas not fond vanity that brought thee forth,
But partial friendship that presumed thy worth ;
Friendship, that warmly urged me to the deed,
Predicting kindly that it would succeed.
Virtue may read the work without a fear,
Through the whole progress of my long career;
And malice I securely may defy
To charge the plain memorial with a lie;
Go then, and if mere trifles load the page,
By conscience armed, dread not the critic's rage.

Brighton is expected to be unusually gay
during the present season. It is now fully expected that
their MAJESTIES' arrival at the Pavilon will not be pro-
longed beyond the 10th of November. Their Royal
Ilighne,ses the Duke and Duchess of GLOUCESTER are
expected to le :ve Bagsbot, fur their residence at this fa-
vourite watering-place, about the middle of next week. An
unnsual number of t' e highest rank of nobility and fashion
have intimated their intention of visiting it immediately
on the arrival of the Royal Patrons and their distingui-Lai
suite. Tire Duke of DEVONSHIRE leaves Chatsworth
almost immediately to assume his duties at the Pavili -n
as Lord Chamberlain, and his Grace's mansion at Kemp
Town having within Vie last few weeks been considerably
improved, ornamented, and embellished, will, we under-
stand be thrown open to a numerous circle by a series of
splendid soirees a dancer. Mansions are about to be en-
gaged for the reception of those two di-tit)tuished leaders
of haut ton, the Princess LIEVEN and the Duchess de
DINo. The Marchioness of LONDONDERRY is not ex-
pected to be there until after Christmas
Yesterday the Foreign Ambassadors again
assembled at the residence of one of the ex-members of
the Conference, and continued in deliberation for upward;
of six hours. There were present the Russian Ambassa-
dor., Prince LIEVEN, and Count AIATUCHEWITZ, the Rus-
sian Pienipotential y Extraordinary; Baron WF.ssEistanac,
the Austrian Minister, and Baron DE NEUMANN, tie
Austrian Charge d'Affaires; Baron BoLow, the Prussian
Minister; and Baron ZUYLEN VAN NYEVELT, the Nether-
lands Minister. The several parties met so early as
nine o'clock in tl e morning. Last night extraordinary
couriers were set off with despatches for Paris, Berlin,
and St. Petersburgh.

Various rumours are afloat in the legal circles
respecting the changes that are likely to take place in the
event of the retirement of Lord TENTERDEN, who, it is
undetscoad, labours under severe indisposition. Sir T.
DENMAN, the present Attorney-General, is mentioned as
likely th be promoted to tee Chief Josticeship of the
King's Bench, and that he will be succeeded as Attorney-
General by Sir War. HORNE. The salary of Lord Chief
Justice of England is 10,000/. per'annurn ; the office of
Attorney-General is supposed to produce about 8,000/. a
year; from all patents he receives largely. Lord TEN-
TERDEN has not of late been in the enjoyment of good
health. His Lordship was obliged to leave the Court of
King's Bench on S turday, and was absent the whole of
Monday. It was reported some months ago that his
Lordship, having "served his time," intended to retire,
and that lie would IP succeeded by Lord LYNDHURST,
Mr. Justice ALDERSON, or Sir THOMAS DENMAN filing
np the vacancy in the Court of Exchequer. Lord TEN-
TERDEN' was elevated to his present high office 14 years
ago, on the retirement of Lord ELLENBOROUGH.
The Marquis and Marchioness of ABERCORN
:ire expected to spend the honey men in the North, and
retinal to Bentley Priory before Christmas. The affinity
of the Earl of ABERDEEN (who is both uncle and father-
in-law to the Noble bridegroom) to the ABERCORN family
is somewhat regular. The Noble Earl first married the
eld,-st surviving daughter of the Marquis of ABERCORN,
who was created M arquis under Parr's Administration ;
and, sec:•ndly, he married Viscountess HAMILTON, relict
of Viscount HAMILTON, and mother of the pr. sent Mar-
quis. Lord ABERCORN is in his twenty-second year,
having come of age in January last, and his father, the
late Lord HAMILTON, was married at the same early age.
The Noble Marquis, on attaining his majority, came into
possession of an unincumbered estate of the value of
90 000/. per annum, exclusive of a I ,rge personalty. The
Marquis has an only brattier, Lord CLAUDE, now in bin
twentieth year, and one sister, L.dy HARRIET HAMILTON.
Lord WARREN DE TABLEY attained his
majority on Sunday last, when the event was celebrated
with due honour by Lis Lordship's tenantry at Tibley
11,uSe in Cheshire, where his Lordship and newly-married
Lady are at present residing. Lord DE TABLET sac•
ceaded to his hereditary honours on the death of his father,
the first Lord, in 1827, and his minority has conseqUently
laced five years. The late Lord was throughout his life
distinguished as.a liberal patron of the Fine Arts, and at
his death his collection of pictures realized between
2,0001. and 3,000/. more than his Lordship paid the
artists to pain': them. Lord WARREN DE TABLEY, with
the concutrence of his guardians, formed a matrimonial
alliance, in June 1 ist, with a daughter of the Count and
Countess DE Sams, of Rokeby Hall, in the county of
Louth, an;i in April he obtained his MAJESTY'S pet mis-
sion to ,assume th, surname of WARREN, in addition to his
title of DE TABLEY.
LAND ALLOTMENTS.—The allotment sys-
tem is now in full activity on the estate of Lm d
CHURCHILL, at We•t Lavina ton, with the happiest effects.
It is stated that the industry of the cottagers, and the ad-
vantages of spade hu-bandry, enable them to obtain
full
one fourth more wit Lout a tallow th in land of the same
quality adj,iining, cultivated in the common iv .y by the
plough. Pier, are, at present, upwar is of 66 acres at
West Lavineton thus appropriated among 139 families.—
Essex Mercury.
We have heard that M. COLMARCHE,
Private Secretary to Prince TALLEYRAND, who recently
united himself to an English Lady, has obtained a fortune
of 20,0001 •wit It his bride.
We are assured that the son of M. H um A NN,
Minister of Finances, has adopted the St. Simontan faith,
coutrary to the counsel of his father, and has already taken
the habit of that Soaiety.— Quotidienne.
Mr. MOTHER'S new Orientat Romance, Zoh-
rab the Hostage, is justly compared, in the interest at the
story, with the celebrated work by Me. HttvE. The Flight of
Amima, the very persona•ation of tem.& hi.eliness twat,
to our memory BYRON'S wild story of iffi2eppa. The
izi•count of the Royal hunt should be read by 4•ur sports-
men, whilst tht. description of the garaeons litter, convey-
ing the favourite Princess to the Royal camp, wilt delight
our female readera. The sp•rited sketch of Zuhrub, when
lost amid the mountains he tails into the hands of the
tyrant, is dramatic in the extreme. We hear that one of
our great Winter Tneatres is prepai iog t .e story for lepre-
sentatinn, for winch it is so admirably ad ,preit.
AMERICAN M9DEtIF SUPPRESSING DRUM'

every offender to dig up-a stump of a tree hir each time
he is found intoxicated...a-This is rather a novel way of
