A youthful couple passed through this town from
the south, on Thursday afternoon, in a carriage and four, at
full speed—or, to speak in the accustomed phrase on such oc-

ties are, or wherefrom, we have not heard.—Kendal Mercury.

GREENWICH FAIR.—The Park and Fair at
Greenwich were yesterday made the rendezvous of a large
portion of the holiday folks of London.
THE MONIKINS.—ThiS is the name of Mr.
Cooper's new work of fiction, now on the eve of appearance.
The great eminence of this writer as a novelist is founded on
the happy union he possesses of the various qualities necessary
to the perfection of romance. His imagination is vivid, and
his style of description eloquent and picturesque. "He is a
great observer, and he looks quite through the deeds of men."
His incidents are striking, unexpected, and dramatic. The
scenes wherein his stories are laid were new to the European
world. In delineations of character he is unusually effective,
whether demonstrated in the lofty moods of passion, or in
exhibitions of broad and familiar humour, and his stories are
so skilfully constructed, as to hold the curiosity of the reader
in suspense till he arrives at the last page. We are impatient
to see this new work of so great a master.

It is a curious fact that the only Wiltshire Mem-
