NAPOLEON' EMPEREUR.—The French child
JOSEPHINE, aged three years, born with the words
"NAPOLEON EXPEKEUE" distinctly visible in its eyes, is
now exhibiting to the public at the Royal Bazaar, No. 78,
Oxford-street; wherethe British Diorama, with Four Views
painted by Messrs. STANFIELD and ROBERTS, and the De-
scent from the Cross, by Mr. BALL HUGHES, continue to
be daily crowded with visitors.

We have just seen two coloured Engravings,
enatled the " Sportsman's Present," and " Trimming a
Horse ;" the first, taken from an original painting by
E. F. Lam:l= ; and the second, from a drawing by the
late G. GRATITP::`• They possess considerable spirit, and
are executed with gat richness of effect. The plumage
of the birds in the firs: engraving bears a close resem-
blance to life, and is manifesti;' the result of long and well-
applied observation. We recomiZend both pictures to
the amateurs of sporting, in the confident hope that they
will be gratified.

improved in his health, and able to partake of a chicken.

On Wednesday week, as a young gentleman

a distance of four miles, about four o'clock in the after-

quested to l:nnw whether he would dispose of it. After
some persuasion he succeeded in prevailing on the youth to
allow him (the tilitarper)

hands ,e= the youth'a pony almost wo;,thless.—Nottingham
