in which it is said the liberty of the Scheldt is promised,
but they are obliged to enter into new negotiations before
the evacuation of Antwerp. It is assured that the Bel-
gian Government have decided on a refosi). If we are well
Wormed, which we tiLlieve we are, the Ministers have
refused to enter into any new n g ic;aions, and mean to
take in a few days the resolution of a decisive measure.
They write from Rome that the G ivernment are

Lord COWLEY, although at present retired
from diplomatic service himself, has obtained an appoint-
ment at a foreign Court for his eldrst son, the Hon.
HENRY WELLESLEY, who has departed for Stutgard,

where he is appointed to succeed Mr. CHARLES HENRY
HALL, as Secretary of Legation to Sir EDWARD Dis.

BROWE. Mr. WELLESLEY was an oltacM to his father,

Lord CowLEy, previously to the recall of the latter from
the Court of Vienna by Lord PALMERSTON. Lord COW-
LEY and his lady are now on a visit to the Marquis and
Marchioness of Salisbury, at Hatfield. Since his Lord-
ship's return to England he has become allied by marriage
to one of the most distinguished Whig families in the
country, his eldest daughter, the Hon. CHARLOTTE WEL-
LESLEY, having bestowed her band on Lord ROBERT
GROSVENOR, second son of the Marquis of WESTMINSTER,
and brother to the Earl of WILTON.
A supplement to the Gazette of Tuesday has
been published, ordering that, in consequence of the pre-
valence of cholera in the palish of Wednesbury, in Staf-
fordshire, the annual wake, holden September 9, for bull-
baiting and other amusements, shall be forbidden for the
present year ; and that, for a similar reason, the fair of St.
James, in the city of Bristol, annually held on the let of
September, shall not take place this year. It likewise
directs that the Court of Justiciary in Scotland shall be
empowered to adjourn the period at which the autumnal
Circuit Courts are appointed to be held, whenever the pre-
valence of contagious disease shall render it necessary.
There were two very fat Noblemen at the
French Court, the Duke de L., and the Duke de N. They
were both one day at the levee, when the King began to
rally the former on his corpulency. " You take no exer-
cise, I suppose," said the King. " Pardon me, Sire,"
said de L., " I walk twice a day round my cousin de N."
A married man, who for thirty years had been
in the habit of passing all his evenings with a neighbour-
ing lady of rank and fashion, lost his wife, and it was ge-
nerally supposed he would marry this lady ; his friends
even advised him to do so, but he declined, saying, " In
that case I should never know where to pass my evenings."
A FACT.—At a public dinner given at the
City of London Tavern on the appointment of a new Eng-
lish Ambassador to Turkey, and at which the Turkish
Ambassador was present, among the toasts which were
given from the chair was, " The Ottoman Porte and the
Turkish Ambassador," which was thus repeated in a sten-
torian voice by the waiter, " A bottle of port for the
Turkish Ambassador."
