" We hive no hesitation to say that we have read nothing
descriptive of any portion of 'the Peninsular War, at all to
be compared, in point of interest and important informa-
tion, with the volume now before us. On the whole this
narrative bids fair to take its place among the few works
which are destined to survive the age in which they were

Lane, held of Lord Grosvenor at the original Ground

Twelve, an elegant and most commodious
TOWN RESIDENCE IN PARK-STREET,

being No. 123, and one of the very best of its character
and size in this highly favoured situation, of wl ich probably
the best commentary will be found in the single expression
that it approximates upon

teresting view) are of the very best proportions; there are
three principal bed-chambers, and eleven beds are made
up altogether. It is held of Lord Grosvenor for twenty-
seven years, at the original ground-rent of 4/. 10s. It
was many years in the occupation of the Hon. and Rev.

LONDON,
sATITADAY EVENING, MAY 3, 1828.

Our readers will perceive that the House of Com-
mons, and particularly the Dissenting interest there,
had the wisdom to accept the repeal of the Test
and Corporation Acts, with the alterations made by
the House of Lords. Any other course would have
bespoken insanity.
In moving for a Select Committee to inquire into
the condition of the Canadas. Mr. HustassoN
made a speech worthy of his fame; and glad are
we to see that " Richard is himself again." Mr.
LABOUCHERE followed, and received the well-earned
prises of Sir JA.stEs MACKINTOSH for a speech of
" great talent and information," Sir JAMES MAC-
KINTOSH, of course, was eloquent; but want of
space constrains us to conclude.

The Gazette de France 91' Thursday confirms the
account which we gave two days ago, that the Turks ,
are using great exertions to increase their armies,
and that the PACIIA of Bosnia had raised a levy of
12,00 i) men to he forwarded to the Danube, The
declaration of Russia, issued on the 22d February,
is said to have been received in London on the 12th
of March, and that the answer of our Government
was expresssly that England accepted the assurance
of the Russian Government that it has no views of
conquest—and further declaring that, remaining
neutral, it would abide with France in eccuting the
Treaty of London.

the present low estimate by upwards of 1,0001. a year ;

London.

Al R. GEORGE ROBINS has great
pleasure in announcing to the Public, that he is em-
powered to DISPOSE OF one of the most distinguished
VILLAS on the Bank of the River Thames. The limit
of an advertisement necessarily precludes the possibility of
doing justice to this delightful' abode, nor would the task
be easy to select language sufficiently powerful to convey
an adequate idea of the variety of
DISTINGUISHED BEAUTIES WHICH PERTAINS
EXCLUSIVELY TO THIS PROPERTY.
It must suffice to state that the Residence possesses every
possible convenience and comfort that a family of the
first consequence can require, and the " disposition of the
Pleasure Grounds," Lawns, and Shrubberies (including
about Seven Acres, and abounding'in rare and 'estimable
plants), may be viewed as a model whereon to guide others,
who had not aspired to so muck taste.
It can only be seen by cards (and on three convenient
days), from one till five, which will only be given to per-
sonal applications at Mr. George Robins's Offices, Covent-
, iardeti,

BRIGHTON RACES.

, WEDNESDAY, JULY 30.—The Course displayed 'a bril-
liant attendance this day, including their Rayal Highnesses
the Duke of Cambridge and Duchess of Gloucester, the
Duke and Duchess of Richmond and family and the Ladies
Paget, the Duke of Devonshire, the Earl of Egremont, &c.
The sports came off as follows :
The Brighton Stakes of 25 sour. each, 15 ft. and only five
if declared, &c. with 100 added by the Town. Two
miles.
Sir J. Shelley's Maresfield, 4 yrs

Mr. Mills's irownlock, 6 yrs
Mr. Dickinson's ch. in. Amelia, 5 yrs
Dike of Richmond's Chico, 3 yrs 4

The Sussex Plate of 50 sovs. entrance to go to the second
horse. New Course.

The Earl of Egremont's Gratnpus, 4 yrs..
The Earl of Chichester's b. c. Soldan, 4 yrs
Mr. R. Pettit's b. c. Lancastrian, 3 yrs 2 dis
Mr. Turner's Whimper, 4 yrs 4 dr
Mr. Berkeley Bond's c. m. Mirage, 5 yrs
The number of pedestrians was very great, but less bustle
and confusion prevailed than in former years, owing to the
excellent way in which the course was kept, no person being
allowed to remain within the rails while the horses were
running. At two o'clock Brownlock, Amelia, Chico, and
Maresfield, started at the two-mile post to run for the
Brighton Stakes ; the Renovator colt and Coronet being
'drawn. When near the distance post Chico made play,
but Maresfield passed him easily. Brownlock instantly, as
Chico lost ground pushed forward, but Maresfield still took
the lead and came in easily. This race was looked to with
much interest, Brownlock and Maresfield having both been
considered first-rate horses ; but tke result has proved that
Brownlock was much over-rated. He left Brighton last
night for Salisbury, without waiting to run for the Cup
to-day, for which he had been entered.
For the Sussex Plate all the horses entered started in the
first heat. Grampus came in easily, Mr. Pettit's Lan-
castrian and Lord Chichester's making play. In the second
heat, only Grampus, Lancastrian, and Soldan started._
Grampus took the lead and kept it ; Lancastrian fell consi-
derably behind at the turn of the course. When about 100
yards beyond the distance post, Dick Boyce spurred and
whipped hard, while Arnull was holding in, and Grampus
at last won easily.—Brighton Gazette.
London, England, 1828-07-31

HOP INTELLIGENCE.

We have made inquiries of persons from various quar-
ters during the last week, and the result of those inquiries
have been a concurrence of opinion, that the plantations in
general exhibit no appearance to justify the apprehension
that there will not be an abundant crop ; and, indeed, with
many people, the apprehension is the other way.—Maid-
stone Gazette.
The general report concerning the Hops is, that they
are looking renaarkably well; indeed, their appearance is
far too promising to hope that the price will be a remune-
rating one. The mould is to be seen in several parts; but
this will only affect the quality not the quantity of the
Hops. The duty is expected, by those who have long been
conversant with the subject, to reach 200,000/. —Maid-
stone Journal.

PIGEON SHOOTING.

The Lord Nelson Shooting Ground, Kent-road, was
yesterday well attended by gentlemen of distinction in the
sporting world. The grand match was between Mr.
Lawrence, of the Kent-road Club, and Mr. Kelly, of the
Red House Club, for 201. The terms were at twenty-one
birds each, twenty-one yards from the trap, the hounds
masked at one hundred yards from the trap, and the charge
not limited. Mr. Lawrence killed thirteen, hie opponent
killed only eight. The birds were very fast.

MATCH TO ROW 1,000 MILES IN 1,000 HOURS.
Cootes started opposite the Red House on Monday last,
to row 1,000 miles in !,000 hours. 1k performed the
first mile in sixteen minutes, and has continued it about the
same rate ever since. He completed his thirty-ninth mile
yesterday morning, at nine o'clock. Notwithstanding the
heavy tide he has to encounter, he speaks with great con-
fidence of success. A barge has been stationed at Little
Chelsea, opposite Battersea-bridge, and another at the dis-
tance of half-a-mile, from which be rows up and down.
The bank is constantly thronged with numbers of specta-
tors, who freely spurt their money ou the issue. Betting
is at present three to one against his success, which is
taken without delay.

GREAT MATCH TO OXFORD AND BACK.

A gentleman named Curtis (son, we understand, of the
banker), laid the odds of 100 soya. to 20, with Messrs.
Hawes, of the firm of Hawes and Co., soap-manufactu-
rers, of Lambeth, and a gentleman of the name of Hem-
mings, all celebrated amateurs of aquatics, that they, with
three other gentlemen and a steerer, making seven persons,
did not row in a four-oared cutter, from Westminster
Bridge to Heathley Lock (about a mile and a half this side
of Oxford) and back to the place of starting, in seventy-
two successive hours. The match had, for some time
previous to its taking place, been the subject of conversa-
tion among the nobility and gentry amateurs ; but on its
being decided that the match should commence ou Latur-

day last, the utmost interest was excited, and the betting
became heavy and general, the odds being laid against the
novel undertaking being accomplished. A fine four-oared
cutter, belonging to Rawlinson, of Lambeth, was selected;
an easy seat was constructed for the steerer ; and there be-
ing only four to row at one time, a light bed, with cover-
ing of flannel and oil-cloth, WAS placed fore and aft for two
oarsmen, to take rest while the others were at work. New
oars were made, and nothing was left undone to properly
trim the cntter for the occasion. A few minutes befere
twelve o'clock on Saturday night the following gentlemen,
dressed in blue jackets and oil-skin caps, pulled np to
Pearson, and Clark, with J. Pinder as cnx,
PWreicstem,
sinhsaterp, rßridge—Messrs Hawes (two), Hemmings,
swain. At twelve precisely they started against tide, w:th
full confidence of success. The distance from Westminster
to Heathley Lock is upwards of one hundred and eleven
miles, there being in going up twenty-nine locks to pass
through, and a rapid stream to contend against. At two
o'clock the gentlemen pulled through Richmond, stopped
et Staines to breakfast, and arrived at Windsor (forty-three
miles) at five minute' past eleven. They ultimately reached
Heathiey in forty hours, leaving themselves thirty-two
hours to return to London, which they reached on Tues-
day evening at nine, winning comparatively easy, with
three hours to spare. A gentleman preceded the amateurs
to prepare the locks. A trifling dispute has, however,
arisen, and the bets remain for the present undecided. It
is contended that the agreement specified there should be
seven persons in the cutter, viz., four to row, two to re-
lieve occasionally, and one to steer ; and it being under-
stood that the gentlemen, finding they had plenty of time
to spare, dispensed, for part of the way on seining down,
with their extra oarsmen. This being considered an in-
fringement of the articles, inquiry is being made into the
subject in dispute.

THE ORIENTAL HERALD

Is this month but a very so-so concern. The
articles are uniformly too long ; and, with the
single exception of one entitled " Striking In-
cident in the Life of a Midshipman," whiCh is
a ghost story, impressively told, will scarcely re-
pay attention. The great'fitult of this periodical
is that it wants variety. It is .too monotonous,
and requires a " radical reform." Perhaps the
following stanzas,—which, by the bye, :we hive
seen before--may please

TIIE GRAVE OF BEAUTY.
The skies of evening are beaming o'er me,
The birds are singing amidst the bowers,
The world is basking in smiles before me,
With whispering leaves and with breathing flowers.
But, she with whom, in the days departed,
'Mid scenes so bright, it was bliss to stray—
The young, 'the fond, and the faithful-6arted,
Like all that's fairest, hath fled away.
With bough and blossom herbed embowering,
I see the trees o'er ber,slurnbers wave—
And hear the small hirde around me pouring
The song of gladness above her grave—
And reckless childhood, delighted,, cheering
- With sounds of mirth all the village green
And Nature her gaudy, gay robes wearing,
As death's dark partings had never been.
But, while her garlands are greenly wreathing,
I think of flowers she can never bring—
And, while sweet music is round me breathing,
Of one that hears not the voice of spring.
And, while the sun, o'er the sleep forsaken,
_ •

Sheds farewell smiles from the distant male—
Sad recollections the scenes awaken,
Of her for whom he shall rise in vain.

To whom owes France her Constitution ? According
to Montgaillari, to no one else than to the late le:nip/for
Alexander. This historian relates, in his excellent history
of France, that the Emperor Alexander refused to Louis
XVIII. his entrance into Paris, until he promised to grant
to the nation a Constitution in accordance with its wants.
Thus France would he indebted to the Northern Emperor
for the blessings of a free Constitution. Alexander added,
by this act, the brightest laurel to his diadem, which is
the more glorious, as Montgaillard observe', as the many
attempts made since the Restoration abundantly prove that
all the emigrants, at their return, dreamt of nothing less
than the restoration of an absolute government.

PRICE OF CORN AT DANTZIC.

DANTZIC, Auc. 21.—1 n consequence of the very un-
favouratele accounts which we have received from the
neighbouring countries, and especially from England and
France, fur some weeks past, respecting the prospect of the
harvest, our corn trade has become uncommonly
For several days past large orders have been received both
from England and France ; and in consequence of the con-
tinued rains, and the damage which the wheat in those
parts, and in the whole country, is likely to suffer, there
have been some speculations for home account. In conse-
quence of this a great part of our stock has been bought
up, and is out of the market. As the rainy weather still
continues, and the accounts of the quality of the wheat
that has already been got up in this neighbourhood, are un-
favourable, the prices, particularly of wheat and rye, have
cent., and there

and considerable rise will take place, than could have been

first hand is reduced to 7or 8,000 taste ; that of rye to
A few hundred lasts, and as for barley, oats, and peas, there
are none to be had.
To-day the following prices have been paid :—Wheat,
high red, 400 to 435 florins per last, of 1,61 bows
(scheffel). Red, 350 to 375 florin,. Inferior sorts, 320
to 330 florins. Rye, 185 to 200 florins.
At these prices, however, very little at this moment is
to be had ; the fine descriptions of wheat in particular are
scarce, they can be had only in small parcels. For wheat
much higher prises are asked than have yet been paid.
It is repwkalde that the last purchases of rye seem
to have been made on English account.
Te.day 214 florins have been paid for rye, anti *BO
florins for best wheat.

QUEEN-SQUARE.

On Saturday Henry Todd, full six feet high,
charged Edward Danvers, a low-sized but stout-
built jarve,y, with violently assaulting him, and de-
molishing both his fiddle and the case.

The defendant denied the assault in lobo. Todd
came in drunk, and, on being refused the room, he
swore he would have a Christmas dance in the bar.

Two respectable witnesses supported the state-
ment of the defendant, and the case was dismissed.

One Mister Thomas Coates, a knowing looking
fellow, was charged by Michael Kelly, whose do-
micile is in Church-street, St. Giles's, with assault-
ing him in Grosvenor-place, and smashing his lan-
tern to pieces. After some dialogue Themes Coates
was adjudged to pay Michael Kelly the sum of ss.
for the assault on his person and lantern. " Very
well," said Master Coates, with a significant nod,
and the parties retired out of the office to adjust the
damages. Nov, as soon as they were outside, T.
Coates declared that he had not a rap in his pocket,
but if Master Kelly and the watchman would ac-
company him toe friend's house he would pay them,
as they would get no money by locking him up.
This was agreed to by the parties. " Done," said
Master Coates, " a fair bet:; follow me ;" at the same
time running off us fast he could towards St. James's
park, closely followed by Riley and Kelly, crying
out, " Stop him." " A race for a wager," shouted
Coate% and he made fair way into the Birdcage-
walk. Kelly, who was most interested, soon passed
Riley, whose wind appeared touched, and it was
evident had no chance. Several persons now joined
in the chase or the race; but it was an American
forest to a bunch of matches in Coates's favour, for
he gained ground of Kelly every step, and before
he reached the Horse Guards fairly distanced his op-
ponents, and was soon out of sight.
The parties returned discomfited to the office,
puffing and blowing, and wiping the perspiration
from their faces; and, perhaps, there is no foot-race
on record in the sporting annals that ever created
more hearty laughter when the facts were known.
Kelly swore he would make Riley answerable for
the lantern, and Riley promised he would catch
Coates another day, if he could.
