BRIGHTON, JAN. 30.

Yesterday their MAJEsTIEs took their usual carriage
airings along the East and West Cliff:, and back to the
Palace, previous to which his AIAJEsTr gave audience to
Lori HILL.

The following formed the Royal dinner party last even-
ing :—The Princess AUGUNTA, Prince GEORGE of Cm-

SKINE, Sir ANDREW BARNARD, Madlle. D'ESTR, Mies
HOPE JOHNSTONE, Sir HERBERT TAYLOR, Miss WYN-
YAED, Sir PHILIP and Lady SOPHIA SIDNET, and the
Ilea. Mr. Wow).

It has been reported in several Papers, that a misuniler.
sr 'riding has taken place amongst the visiters in the Palace,
which has had the effect of disturbing the hdrmony that
hitherto prevailed. There is not the shadow of a pretext
for the rumour.

The reports in some of the Sunday P., p, rs of an elope-
Inuit, in high life, of an amiable and atfeeti nate wife and
mother, created the most dist" e.sing sensations here amongst
s-veral members of the family of the injured Lady, the'e
appeared to be not the most remote foundation fur such a
het:lisle and cowardly publication.

Mr. RITCHIE, Professor of Natural Philo-
cophy ;n the University of London, has been created LL.D.
by the University of Aberdeen.
Sir HENRY HA LFORD'S celebrated condok-
gratadatory letters to the Lords TAVISTOCK and WEST-

Agi•uts for Scotland , Messrs. BELL and BRADFUTE ; and
tin Ireland, Mr. JOHN CUMMING.

The departure of Sir FREDERICK LAMn for
Vienna was unexpectedly delayed on Saturday, after the
horses had been put to his carriage, in consequence of the
receipt of despatches at the Foreign-office, which determined
L rd PALMERSTON to delay his Excellency's departure tor
4 khort time.

The Bishops now appear in their own hair
without the usual cranium costume. They have relinquished
t e ancient wiyyery system, fearful that they should be
taken for Whigs.—Morning Paper.
As Mr. PERCEVAL has been gratified with
having a day of general fast, he would confer a great
nrfit on thousands and teas of thousands, if he would
insure also a day of general feasting.
Lord and Lady MARYBOROUGII, «110, with
their grand-daughter, Miss BAGOT, have been for some
,que staying at Brighton, are not expected in Landon he-
fore the Queen's Drawing-room takes place. Mies BAaor
is the successor of Mrs. AR UNDELL BOUVERIE (Miss
FANNY SNSYD) in the courtly office of Maid of Honour t
hrr MAJESTY.

Lord HARROWBY, together with his son,
L rd SANDON, with his agent, Mr. CRUSO, at a meeting
of his Lordship's tenantry, entered into a new valuation of

his estates. We undrrstand the Noble Earl will in future
&fray the tithes himself, and that the tenant will, in con-

stquence, rent his land tithe free.—Stofford Advertiser.
The late Lady TOURNAY STAINES, whose
unexpected death occurred on the 25th instant, died dur-
ing her honeymoon, her Ladyship having formed a matri-
in.inial connection at Margate, towards the close of De-
cember, with GEORGE. GUNNING, Esq., of Frindshury, in
the county of Kent. Lady STAINES was the relict of the
late gallant Captain Sir THOMAS STAINES, K.C.8., who
formerly commanded the /sit frigate.
MARRIAGE IN HIGH LIEF.—Sir PHILIP
MALEAS GREY EGERTON, Bart., of thilton Park, will
shortly lead to the altar HANNA'', one of the beautiful and
accomplished daughters of GEORGE J. LEIGH, EAq., of
High Leigh, Cheshire. Several other alliances amongst
the ancient families of the Cheshire Nobility and gentry
are about to take place.—Staffordshire Advertiser.
It is understood that in consequence of the
report of Sir PULTENEY MALCOLM. Who lately visited
Falmouth for the purpose of inspecting the packets, the
harbour, &c. considerable changes will shortly take ph ice
in the packet establishment there. It is understood that
the eyes of Government are now likely to be opened to
the great advantages possessed by Falmouth, as one of the
most capacious harbours in England, as it is our most
westerly port.— IVest Briton.

It is stated that Colonel FOCK, of the Rus-
sian Artillery, has, by experiments at his smelting-houses,
neat St. Petersburgh, ascertained a most important fact in
metallurgy. He has proved that the metal nay be ex-
tracted from the ore by using wood as fuel, without pre-
viously reducing it to charcoal. If this information he
true, and the process, which has hitherto been deemed im-
practicable, can be made known in France, it will be in-
valuable to the French iron-masters, who will, by this
ans, be relieved from the immense expense now incurred
in preparing the charcoal.—Paris Paper.
The buildings at the entrance of the Tower,
adjoining the Spur Guard, now occupied an a menagerie
for wild beasts, are, we understand to be razed to the
ground, and an artillery barrack erected on their site.
This measure is said to have been recommended by the
Duke of WELLINGTON, the High Constable of the Tower,
who, since November 1830, has paid great attention to
the fortifications, which, since that time, have undergone
a thorough repair, and been considerably strengthened,
independently of a stockade having been erected, and a
curtain placed ou the batteries fronting the river. The
wild beasts whl bt shor.ly removed ; those belonging to
his MAJESTY have been already sent to the Surrey Zoo
14 gical Gardens.

-SCOTTISH LITERARY FESTIVAL.-1t is
said that Mr. Hocc was robbed of his snuffbox at the

" S,ottish Literary Festival," or rather Fast : qu. was
that the only robbery then and there perpetrated ? The
" Stewards" are going to institute some inquiry into the
subject, because it is said that several gentlemen complain
that they were robbed at the door of TWENTY-FIVE shil-
lings each ! These are really sad rumours ; we hope there
may he satisfactory explanations.—Morning Advertiser.
[N.B. We hope so too, we have received an infinite num-
ber of communications on this subject from correspondents,
who say, one and all, that the matter must not be suffered
to drop.—En. SUN.]
NEW THEATRES.—There is at present a
theatre 'at Paddington, and two new ones are building—
one, it is slid, on a speculation, in wkich Mr. KEAN is
part proprietor.

. . .
OR ATORIO.--DRURY-LANE THEATRE.—
Mr. BISHOP prepared a treat for the lovers of music last
night, but our limits will not admit of our entering into all
the particulars. Madame SrocxnAusur and PHILLies
maintained their high celebrity, and never exerted their
splendid talents eaore successfully. Miss LLOYD and Miss
PEAasox sang several things with very great applause.
SeGuiN gave Non pivandrai with much spirit and effect.
We are happy to add that there was an excellent house.
COBURG THEATRE.—The manager of this
theatre appears indefatigable. Since our recent mention
of The Man in the Iron Mask he has produced another
drama, and engaged that idol of the Parisians, Miss
S lirrusoN, to personate its heroine. The new piece, acted
for the first time last night, is entitled Adelaide of Wol-
jingen, and is avowedly of German origin. The main in-
cident on which the piece is founded is more horrible than
the tales of Jocasta or Medea. Adelaide if IVoljingen,
after having been many years a happy wife and mother,
di covers that through a strange combination of circum-
stances she is the wife of her own brother, and in the mad-
n. es of her despair murders her own children. In the
drama as presented last night, all the horror of these cir-
cumstances is pourtrayed and painfully dwelt upon till the
last scene, when it is discovered that Adelaide is not the
sister of her husband, and that she has not murdered her
