. containing
characters grotesquely attired, and bearing an an-
nouncement that the Pope's Bull would be burnt in
Smithfield, by John Bull, who would afterwards ex-
communicate the Pope ; at the same time calling on
those who attend to conduct themselves with order and
decorum.
Messrs. HARDING and Co., 81, Pall-mall, beg to
intimate to the public that, in consequence of the rebuilding
—D
metropolisU r ing
of their premises, it has become imperative on them to
dispose of the whole of their valuable Stock, which they
have determined to offer for immediate Salo, at a very con•
siderable reduction of price. Messrs. H. and Co. offer to the
public the assurance that the Sale thus announced is bona
fide. Their entire Stock, consisting of Silks, Ribbons, Lace,
Embroidery, Shawls Scarves, Cloaks, Mantles, Gloves, and
the recherché Selection of Millinery, for all of which their
establishment is so eminently diL:tinguisbed, will be unre-
servedly subjected to the reduction. The orders given for
autumn goods prior to the consent of the Woods and
Forests to the rebuilding of the premises have arrived, and
will be included in the Sale. The Sale will be continued for
a limited period.
A COUNTRYMAN'S SENTIMENT.—The Brighton
Guardian says that during the Mayor of Chichester's
dinner, last week, a countryman, with white smockfrock
and leather gaiters entered the room. Upon inquiry he was
discovered to be the bailiff of the worthy mayor. Ralph was
invited to take a glass of wine, and on being called on for a
toast, caused a roar of laughter by giving " More wine and
less bishops."
FALCON•qIAWR.—On Friday last a splendid falcoi"
h!iwk, having leather jesses and a steel swivel appendedtio
his feet, was shot by the gamekeeper on the estate of Burn-
side, near Forfar. The bird measured three feet one inch
tip to tip , altogether,
of the wings when extended ; and is °
r,
a
remarkably fine specimen of the now scarce and valuable
species to which it beiags.--Scotsznan.
