It having been represented that his Royal

Highness the duke of CrakiEwcE is nbt partial to Brighton,
we have the satisfaction of stating, on undoubted authority,
that the rumour is groundless ; and indeed it is almost

quency of his Royal Highness's visits to Brighton, when
the Pavilion was his MAJESTY'S chief residence.—Brighton

in town. It was all very true that lie was standing upon
the street, and that a crowd was collected around bins, but
he was not at all to blame for that. It was only a wager.
His "chain" had told him before he came to Glasgow,
" that there was rtPver a town like it far girls," and that
the " never a step" could he taken on the streets without
being asked by some " tight little frigate or another to ghq•
her a couple of glassfuls of grog." The son of Neptune had
immediately struck a wager with him that he " would
stand a whole day in Glasgow streets, and not a soul of s
woman would ask him for grog " He accordingly took his
station in Jamaichstreet, and
Placing a sixpence on the tip
of his finger, bawled out most lustily to the fair passenger,
to join him in drinking a 0,1,,s of spirits. He had waited, In
said, a long tiine in silence, but the 4. a girl asked
for grog, and getting mouldy from want of it, he pulled out
.
a sixpence, which he would willingly have shared with
any that would 'have asked it."
The sailor told his stork
with the greatest good humour, and seemed highly pleased
that be lead at least
