' CoRN-'EXCHANGE, AUG. 1.--A very short
supply of every sort of Grain. The best Wheats maintained
Monday's price ; and there being a brisker demand for the
ordinary sorts, they in consequence procured a better price than
of late. In other sorts of Grain no material alteration ; they
fully supported Monday's prices.

HOP INTELLIGENCE.
Sountwmtx, JULY 30.—We have not any demand for
Hops at present, our sales were never more confined, or on a
less scale. We think the accounts are not quite so favourable
to-day from the plantations as they were last week. The Duty
is at £140,000.

Among the regiments enumerated by us in our
Paper of Wednesday last, as being named, for re-
duction, we included the 7th Dragoon Guards.
A Correspondent assures us there is not the
least foundation whatever for the report of that
old regiment being reduced, and particularly as
there are 18 other regiments of cavalry junior to
them
,in the service.—(British Press.)
The QUEEN was much indisposed at the Theatre
on Monday evening, but her MAJESTY could not

His late MAJESTY'S skill in music was acknow-
ledged ; he many years ago composed an air,
which he gave-to one of his attendants of the
name of Bernard, who, on Bickerstaff's transfor-
mation of The Village Opera to Love in a Village,
introduced it in the character of Rosetta, with
appropriate words, viz.: " In love should there
meet a fond pair." The air possesses a tasteful
ease and simplicity worthy of the Royal Composer.
Extract of a letter, dated Malta, June 14 :
cc Dispatches have arrived, directing all the
troops to be sent up which can be spared from
this garrison. These, however, amount to but
few, namely, the four companies of the 36th re-
giment, which were left behind ; and they em-
bark to-day for Cephalonia, on board the Cam-
brian frigate. Two regiments more are daily
expected from England ; but the object is not
divulged. All that we know is, that barracks
for troops are fitting up here."
Letters from Alexandria, dated the Bth of
May last, give the intelligence that the cele-
brated sarcophagus of alabaster, and the various
other antiquities accumulated by the traveller
BELZONI, have been embarked for England on
board the transport Dispatch, Capt. WALKER. By
the date of the letters we may expect the above
vessel to arrive in the Thames this month, and
the public curiosity will be soon gratified with
the sight of these precious remains of antiquity.
A first rate line of battle ship, built upon a
beautiful model, is nearly ready to be launched at
Chatham. The name originally intended was the
Prince Regent, but we understand it is to be
changed to George the Fourth. The head and
'quarter galleries are a fine specimen of marine
architecture. She is to carry 110 guns.
The 'Provost of King's College, Cambridge,

menced, and in the evening there was a grand
regatta on the river.

abolished all fees and ward dues on the admis-
sion of patients. The poor will be received in
future free of any charge whatever. Too much

brolght into effect this act of real philanthropy.
The admission of patients will hereafter be on
every Thursday from 11 to 12 o'clock.
