ALTERATIONS AT PORTSMOUTH.

It is said to be in contemplation to alter the
carriage road from Portsmouth to Portsea, by
taking in the present road between the Quay
Gate and the King's Mill, for the use of the
Barracks and Gun-wharf, and opening a new
road through the ramparts, direct from the Mill
into Prospect-row, which is to be widened and
rendered more commodious. The plan, if
adopted, would undoubtedly tend, in the course
of time, to improve a part of the town which has
hitherto been regarded as a sink of pollution ;
but, with the character attached to it, how far it
is desirable that such a place should become a
great public thoroughfare, we will not undertake
to determine. The improvements which have
been made of late in the Garrison, under the di-
rection of the Board of Ordnance, contribute
greatly to the convenience of the inhabitants,
and at the same time give a more respectable
appearance to the place ; and it is with much
satisfaction we observe that the local officers of
the department appear to be most laudably in-
tent in discharging their duties in this respect
with effect.

The new bridge at the Lion-gate of the town
of Portsea is a structure which, from its neatness
and elegance, reflects honour on those from
whom it proceeded ; and being in excellent
keeping with the chaste architecture of the gate
itself, is highly ornamental and becoming, as the
principal entrance of the town. The attention
which has been given to the foot bridges and
footways connected with them, to several of the
sally-ports, to the glacis, to the removal of use-
less and unsightly buildings, Sze. claim from us
public acknowledgment; and yet we must take
the opportunity of expressing our regret, that
the works and public edifices at such a place as
Portsmouth, the first naval arsenal in the world,
as well as a principal fortified station, should not
have become, more than they are, a subject of
national concern and attention, and that mea-
sures for their improvement should not be taken
for carrying them on, consistently with their na-
ture and importance upon a larger scale—upon
a scale commensurate with the purposes and
consequence of a great naval and military esta-
blishment. Is not, we would ask, the object of
the care and the pride of our Richards and our
Henries, of Elizabeth and her several successors,
entitled in every point of view to the fullest con-
sideration ? Whilst as Englishmen, and as
loyal and devoted subjects to his Majesty, we
feel a lively interest in the renovation of the
grandeur and magnificence of Windsor Castle,
and in the re-building of Buckingham Palace,
and in the extensive and tasteful improvements
carrying on in the metropolis, which are calcu-
lated to characterise the present reign ; whilst
we feel pride and pleasure in those national un-
dertakings, Vk 1 ic h add to the peaceful triumphs
of our country, we cannot be indifferent to the
claims of Portsmouth to be rendered by every
possible improvement, worthy of the position
which it occupies. We regret, therefore, that
the Government House should have been taken
down, and that the re-building of such an edi-
fice for state purposes, and for the occasional re-
sidence of Royalty and the entertainment of
foreign Princes, should have been so long sus-
pended as it has. The King's Sally-port, as it
is called, is one amongst the many things which
requires improvement. It is, in its present
form, perfectly unsuitable, and a sort of degrada-
tion of its denomination ; and we indulge in the
hope that the reports some time since in circula-
tion are not without foundation—that a design
is entertained of making an entrance from the
sea at the end of the High-street, which shall
comport with the importance of it ; and that this
part of the fortifications, which in particular is
so susceptible of grand, and useful improvements,
may ere long undergo the necessary survey for
t the purpose.—Hampshire Telegraph.
