It is with the deepest regret we announce a
calamity which has befallen our beloved SOVEREIGN, by
the formation of a cataract on one of his eyes. It has, we
believe, been determined on that his MAJESTY should un-
dergo an operation. We sincerely trust that it may have
the desired effect of restoring his sight. In the mean time
it is satisfactory to know that the KlNc's general state of
health is very good.—Morning Herald.

The KING has at length- signified to his Co-
terie at the Royal Cottage his intention to visit Brighton
before the close of the present year—probably early in
November. The site on which the Lodge in the Great
Park stands, notwithstanding every effort in the way of
draining and trenching made by the most experienced
buitders, is far from healthrin a wet winter. The Pavi-
lion, at Brighton, is always ready for the KING'S recep-
tion, by merely uncovering the furniture, and putting up
the curtains. A certain portion of that Chinese Temple
is composed of such fragile materials as to require con-
stant renovation to prevent its tumbling into ruins. These
repairs the Brightonians annually convert into " note of
preparation" fur the return of the KING-in the present
instance they are right.

The Marquis of HERTFORD is on his annual
visit at Sudbourne Hall, in Suffolk, where, as usual dur-
ing the early part of the shooting season, his hospitable
house is full. Lord LOWTHER, Col. COOKE, and Mr.
Cuoicra are amongst the guests. The Marquis will
shortly depart for Italy, to remain until the spring. His
Lordship resided at Naples and in that neighbourhood last
year ; Rome, however, is at present the intended limit of
the Marquis's journey, provided a palace sufficiently large
and convenient for the accommodation of his numerous
suite can be hired.

The Earl of WESTMORLAND, the Marquis
of STAFFORD, the Duke of NEWCASTLE, and other exten-
sive landowners, have entirely removed from their grounds
and preserves those horrid engines, spring guns, and have
substituted the patent humane snare of MAnELEY, of Bir-
mingham, which secures trespassers without injuring their
.persons.

HARROWGATE, SEPT. 9.—Notwithstanding
the unsettled state of the weather, the company at this
distinguished watering-place has been for the last fortnight
exceedingly numerous, including many families of distinc-
tion, and / out ton. Monday last afforded a high treat to
the bon vivant, the admirers of beauty, and the votaries of
fashion, Mr. Farm, of the Dragon (whose establishment
as particularly well conducted), having provided turtle and
venison for his company and their friends, amounting to up-
wards of one hundred, both of which were dressed in the
first style of excellence ; the wines were of the best qua-
lity ; in fact, the most refined gourmand could have no-
thing to complain of. In the evening there was a most
brilliant dress ball, at which were present all the families
of consequence in the neighbourhood, amounting to three
hundred. The ball-room was beautifully
The jewels and dresses worn by the ladies were of the most
costly kind ; the suite of diamonds most particularly ad-
mired were those of Mrs. \l'm. CAmac, which were of
the very first oriter. The scene was further enlivened by
several of the Military from York and Leeds; this, with
the music, produced a truly animated effect. -Quadrilles
and waltzing were kept up with great spirit during the
night. The company did not separate until Sol in his lila
splendour recommended the lovers of Terpsichore to for-
get their delights in the refreshments of sleep. Every one
appeared happy and satisfied, and many will for some time
with pleasure reflect upon the ball at the Dragon
