place.

The Duke of GLOUCESTER, attended by
Colonel HIGGINS, Major FORSTER, and Capt. STEVENS,
left town yesterday morning, in a carriage-and-four, for
Cheltenham, which town it was expected his Royal High-
ness would reach last night, stopping on the road at Wit-
ney to dinner. Previous to the Royal Duke's departure,
his sister, the Princess SOPHIA MATILDA, came to town
from her residence on Blackheath, and took leave of him ;
the Princess SOPHIA also visited his Royal Highness early
in the morning, to take leave.
The Duke and Duchess of CLARENCE and
the Duchess of SAYE WEIMAR visited the Duchess of
GLOUCESTER yesterday, at Gloucester-house.
The Duke of WELLINGTON arrived in town
about two o'clock yesterday afternoon, from Walmer
Castle, Kent. The Earl of ABERDEEN had an interview
with his Grace after his arrival.

Mr. Secretary PEEL left town on Monday
morning, on a visit to Mr. BA RING, at his seat near Bran-
don, Norfolk.

We hear, on authority, which is somewhat
better than mere rumour, that the Duke of WELLINGTON
has it in contemplation to effect an alteration in the Tithe
Laws next Session. Of the precise nature of the in-
tended change,we are not at present informed.—Brighton
Gazette.

We have just seen a letter, written by an in-
telligent observer at Paris, which states the universal pre-
valence of a conviction that some great and general change
in the Administration will speedily follow the prorogation
of the Chambers. The names of those who are to retire,
as well as of those by whom they are to be replaced, are
as yet only guessed at ; but it seems to be considered
certain that M. DE CHATEAUBRIAND will occupy a pro-
minent position in the new arrangement. From the same
source we are informed, that the unappeasable hostility to
England, and rancorous animosity towards the Duke of
WELLINGTON, recently exhibited in the Chamber of Depu-
ties, by one or two Ultra BONAPARTISTS met with a very
unfavourable receptioT from the general feeling of the As-
sembly. Our informant, who was present at the debate,
states that a feeble attempt to express approbation was
overwhelmed by an almost universal murmur of dissent.

AYLESBURY, JULY I`3.—A report having
been circulated in London that the wheat crop was se•
riously injured by the continued rains, I was the more
particular in observing the condition of that grain, as well
as the state of other crops, in my way to this place. It ap-
peared to me, as far as I could judge from this sort of in-
spection, that the wheat had as yet suffered no injury from
the rain ; on.the contrary, it seemed in excellent condi-
tion—healthy, clean, luxuriant, and full in the ear. In
no instance did I perceive the least portion of it laid by the
heavy showers. It is now in general turning, being
slightly embrowned, and no doubt requires sunshine to
ripen it. The oats every where looked thin, and the bar-
ley on the higher grounds is but a meagre crop ; but in
the low soils, for the most part, it promises very well.—
In many places it was overrun by the yellow weed called
curlock in the early part of the year. This weed, which
it is very difficult to extirpate without destroying the plant
itself, has contributed, by intercepting its nutriment, to
impoverish the crop wherever it has succeeded in
diffusing its pernicions luxuriance. Not wishing to
rely upon my own observation as to the condition
of the wheat crops, I asked a sensible man—a prac-
tical farmer, but not a speculator—what his opinion was;
and he told me that if the weather were now to " take up,"
and give the wheat the benefit of a warm sun, the crop
would be exceeding good—and he would hesitate to affirm
that, both in point of quality and quantity, the wheat har-
vest would be one of the best that has been remembt yed
for many years. If, however, the re.iii cliOuld go an for
some time longer, he feared it must suffer severely, and
that smut and mildew were, in that event, to be appre-
hended. The wet, he says, has already seriously injured
the beans by subjecting them to the ravages of the fly,
which multiplies under a humid atmosphere. The turnips,
however, look very well, and the after-crops of grass are
excessively luxuriant. Notwithstanding the failure of the
hay harvest, the quantity of old hay here keeps the
price of
that sort of produce down,
