TO MRS. RUNDELL.

" My dearest Madam,—The unexpected occurrence of
some business induces me to solicit your pardon for being
obliged to delay the pleasure of attending you until Mon-
day morning. In the mean trine lam happy to avail my-
self of this first opportunity of sending the enclosure, which
I trust you will feel it is as highly honourable in you to
receive as it is gratifying in me to have such means for
offering. Although your gift to me has proved far more
valuable than I expected, yet it has added little to the grate-
fulness which I have so long entertained for a friendship which

it is my highest pride to maintain, and which must ever render
me your obliged servant, " JOHN MURRAY."
MRS. RUNDELVS ANSWER.

" 3IY DEAR SlR—Your very handsome and most unex•
pected present I have just received, and can truly say I neve]
had the smallest idea of any return for what I considered

and which really was, a free gift to one whom I had
long regarded as my friend. If in truth you have found
my little work productive so far above your expectations
as to render your very obliging enclosure any satisfaction
to your own feelings, I will not affront your noble senti-
ment by returning it: although your persuasion of its being
honourable to my poor abilities is really necessary to make me
believe Ido not err in accepting it. I beg to return you my
best acknowledgments, my dear Sir, and to assure you of
what, however, I hope you do not doubt, 1 am your obliged
friend and obedient servant,

%L RV ELIZA RENDELL."

The Edinburgh Star of Tuesday, alluding to
the false report of the death of the Countess of
LAUDERDALE, says, " We can assure our readers
that the Noble Countess was yesterday in her
usual health and spirits at Dunbar House."
The unfinished new room adjoining the draw-
ing-room at St. James's Palace, is seventy-four
feet square. The exterior is nearly completed,
and is exactly uniform with the old building ; it
• is designed for the accommodation of the Ladies
at the drawing-room. The new grand staircase
is likewise nearly completed.
The late Mr. TIMED, R. A., received the order 1
for the monument in St. Paul's Cathedral, to the
memory of the late General PoNsoxay, and had
scarcely made the sketch, when he died ; this he
left to his friend Mr. BAILY, R. A., to execute in
marble ; who has handsomely made a present of
one thousand pounds of the suin allowed by Go-
vernment for this monument, for the benefit of
Mr. THuEED'S children.

SINGULLR SPORTING OCCUR RFNCE.—On Tues-
day, the 30th ult. tho harriers of hall' THOMAS,
House, near Buith, hunted a hare for a
considerable time. Puss being hardly pressed,
dashed into a pool called hell Hole, in the River
Wye. On the opposite side stood a Baptist
Divine angling without success. The huntsman's
halloo roused the Rev. Gentleman, who, seeing
the hare, patiently awaited her lauding, but in
attempting to catch her, he missed his aim—
and the animal, alarmed, began to swim back
towards the dogs which were grasping at her in
the pool, when the preacher skilfully threw his
line, hooked poor puss in one of her legs, and
rescued her from a watery grave, for another
day's sport.—(llcreford Jozernat)
