of Rear-Admiral PAGE, to ascertain and arrange the best me-
thod of exhibiting signals in case of a ship being ,in distress,

lights shall be burned at Landguard fort and guns fired ; and,
in the day, two flags are to be hoisted,, one over the other, on
the flag staff at the fort, The composition decided on, as afford-
ing the most intense light, was by Mr. Deck, of Harwich.

Au Article was recently inserted in our Paper,

HAYWARD'S Charity was likely to be brought
forward again before the LORD CHANCELLOR,
by the Guardians of the Poor of the Parish of
St. Nicholas, Rochester,, who, if they succeed,
expect to gain the funds crow in Court, amount-
ing to about 16,0001. and the interest, arising
from considerable estates in Devonshire. The
truth is, that the only property in Devonshire,
on which the Guardians of St. Nicholas, Ro-
chester, have made, or can make any claim, con-
sists in the interest of two fields adjoining to
Crediton, and in the building on one of them,
which Mr. BULLER, the trustee of Sir Jolts
HAYwAnn's Charity, some years ago erected for
a School of Industry for setting the poor of Cre-
diton, and other adjoining parishes, to work.—
This Establishment was founded there pursuant
to an order of the Court of Chancery, and in
conformity to the provisions of Sir ,fokiN HAY-
WARD'S deed of trust, which directed certain
monies to be applied in employing the poor of
such parishes as his trustees should appoint, and
of-which St. Nicholas, Rochester, was to be one. i
The Guardians of St. Nicholas have received by
order of the Court of Chancery seven thousand
pounds three per cent. stock, which the trustee
of this Charity deems to be their full proportion;
and the suit now pending is' for the future ap-
propriation of the remainder, amounting 'to about
fifteen thousand pounds three per cent. stock, the
produce Of Nvhirh-Mr. BULLER, the trustee re-
presentative, and heir at law, of Sir JOHN HAY-
WARD, considers should be expended where he
can superintend its proper application, and which
the. Guardians of St. Nicholas, Rochester, con-
tend should be exclusively applied to the poor of
their own parish.

Arlington-street, from Bath. His Lordshipheing Recorder of
the above city, gave a grand dinner to the Corporation previous
to his departure. This day his Lordship will leave town to
join the Marchioness and family at Bayham Abbey, in Sussex.
The Right Hon. Lord Stowell, after dining with the Lord
Provost and the .Magistrates here on Monday week, visited
Bothwell Castle the next day, and afterwards proceeded to
New Lanark, where he dined with Mr. and Mrs. Owen. In
the evening he visited the Institution, which the work people
attend after their labour is over, and was much gratified to find
the young persons who had been at work during the day, so
usefully and beneficially employed in the evening, instead of
being in the alehouses.—(Glasgow Chronicle.) -
John Penn, Esq. Governor of Portland, gave an elegant de-
jeune last week, at Pennsylvani Castle, to a number of the
fashionableS from Weymouth and the surrounding country.
During the company assembling a band of music played fa-
vourite pieces on the lawn. After the dejeune, which consisted
of every delicacy, with abundance of game and choice .fruits
from Mr. Penn's seat of Stoke Park, before the party broke
up, the ladies, in elegant groups, promenaded the pleasure-
grounds, and returned by moonlight across the ferry, highly
delighted with the festivity of the' day.
PUBLIC DESNEU AT' MOIOIOI.7TII.—On Saturday (13th
inst.) a most splendid entertainment was given at Monmouth,
on invitation by the Gentlemen of the County, to his Grace the
Duke of Beaufort ; will& was attended by Lords William and
Granville Somerset, Sirs C. Morgan and S. Fludyer, Messrs.
Lewis, of St. Pierre and Lantillio, and Gentlemen of the first I
respectability of Monmouth, Abergavenny, Newport, Usk,
Chepstow, and every part of the county and neighbourhood,
more numerous than had ever before met in that town. After
giving the regular constitutional toasts' R. Lewis, Esq. of Lan-
the Chairman, rose and observed, that the Duke of Beau-
fort having done them the honour to accept their invitation to
dinner, he begged leave to propose his health, and to assure
him of their most sincere respect for his virtues and character.
His Grace returned thanks by stating, that no words could ex.
press the satisfaction and gratitude he felt for the compliment
now paid him by so inusierotti and respectable a meeting ; and
that he should be most happy on all occasions to promote, to the
utmost of his power, the interests of the county of Monmouth.
On the healths of the different gentlemen being drank through
out the evening, each toiSk the opportunity of expressing his
high respect for their Noble Visiter. Sir C. Morgan said, that
in the characters of husband, father, and landlord, his Grace
might well be proposed as a model to the nation ; and on
Sir Charles's health being drank a second time, as Recorder
of Newport, he stated, that a-town had been established there
by his Grace's' exertions, in obtaining a confirmation (not a
grant) of their ancient right of exemption from the Coal Tax,
and by which a coal trade had been founded which supported a
thousand, nay,' he might add, ten thousand persons. His Grace
and Lord Granville Somerset had made Newport a free port ;
it was true, continued • Sir Charles, that he, had rendered his
feeble assistance, but to his Grace the merit was eminently due.
COlonel Wood, M.P. for Brecon, returned thanks in a speech
of great eloquence and wit. He observed, that whilst other per-
sons of fortune went to foreign countries, his Grace remained at
home, to spend his money among his neighbours ; but that he
(the. Colonel) did not complain of these wanderers, as it would
prove to them that England was at last the best country in the
world. He cordially concurred in-the respect that day shewn to
his Grace, whose heart and mind, were, in every thing that was
respectable and .dignified, truly English ; that he was certain
the manly spirit of his Noble Ancestor of Ragland, whose castle'
had made the best defence for, and on whose walls the flag of
his Sovereign was last waved, would continue to flow with his
blood through his illustrious descendants ; and that he did not
doubt the inhabitants of this country would at all times con-
tinue to assist them in supporting. the Constitution of their
country. Much more, personally respectful to his Grace, was
said during the evening ; and a most agreeable day was extend-
ed to a lute hour.'

Ans Exec OF MIND.---An absent man, dining
with a gentleman and his sister, the latter fainted
at table, which our blunderer, without thinking,
imputed to her being- in a thriving way. " You
are rather out there, my friend ;" said his host,
" my sister has been a widow these three years."
—" I really beg pardon," exclaimed the other,
" I thought she was a spinster ! "
A loin of mutton was on the table, and the
gentleman opposite to it took The carver in hand.
" Shall I cut it saddlezzisc " quoth he. " You
had better cut it bridlezvise " replied the Pro-
fessor, " for then we shall all 'stand a better
chance to get a bit in our mouths."

ANECDOTE OE A SAILOR.—An honest tar, who had well
lined his.pozkets with the spoils of the enemies of 'ais country,
ordered a huge gold ring. When thetradesman had finished
it, he told him it was common to have a posey engraved on it.
" Very wall,?' said the seaman, " what must it be ?" " Any
thing you please," said the goldsmith—". Then," returned the
other, " put On Irlitn 'money's toFi,..the 'mot go."
This was done, and the honest son -of the waves was so well
pleased with the execution of the whole, that he ordered a mas-
sive pair of silver buckles to be made, with rims nearly as broad
as the edge of a two inch plank. !' Anethere,"-saidle," you
may as well brut a posey on them also.-=.•-"If that, wont do, the
rtekles too "

Mrt. RENNIE. -We understand that the
Court of Directors of the Waterloo Bridge Com-
pany, as a means of handing down to posterity
the memory of this matchless artist, have it in
contemplation to erect a' small Obelisk at each
end of the bridge, where
an
division bars now
stand, on which shall be inscription, stating
simply the name of, the architect under whose
superintendence this noble structure was raised,
the time 'it took building, and the expence in-
curred by the great undertaking. Rumour adds,
that a Surveyor has already examined the ground,
to ascertain its fitness, ,and that the work will be
commenced immediately his report is approved
of by the Court of Proprietors.
