I • e
learn with pleiSure, that it has been announced
brhia,Royal Highness the Prune lkwasser, that it is
hrtintention, on the signature of a Treaty of Peace,
toc`itate Lord WELLINGTON a Duke, and to advance
to tine Peerage six distinguished General Officer's who
hate-had commands, and gained victoriet In the war
which has terminated so gloriously, viz. Sir Thomas
Gitanase, Sir WILLIAM BERESI'ORD, Sir ROWLANII
the Earl of Datuouste (to be a Britith Peer),
Sir THOMAS PICTON, and Sir JOHN HOPE.
We understand it is the intention of Government,
on the disbanding of the old County Militias, which
will immediately take place, not to put the Counties
to the expense and vexations operation of a Ballot
for the Peace Establishment, but to supply the place
thereof by the present existing Local Militia, who are
enrolled for four years, and by assembling them as
last year for fourteen days annually. The expence
will be much less than the old Peace Establishment
of the County Militia. The fines also, raised upon
this Ballot for non-service, will be found fully com-
petent to defray the expence of their force ; and it
was from this fund the bounty was raised for men
volunteering from the Militia to the Line.
The detachments of the Buckinghamshire Militia,
now at the Military Barracks, Gosport, began their
route for Winchester this day. They were on the
eve of embarking to join the regiment lately sailed

AFFECTIKU INCIDENT.—When the Duke de BERRI

prisoners in that town ? The Mayor answered, there
were not less than sixty young wen, who, as Con-

to have been marched in irons to join NAPOLEON'S'

ment. In the evening his Highness went to the The-

Conscripts on their knees, surrounded by their fa-

The EMPEROR of Amnia, who is expected in

Ore of the most heart-rending scenes which meets
the eye of the benevolent in cktittany, is the im-

The approaching return of Peace has increased in
a tenfold degree the interest justly excited by the po-
pular Game of the " Patient/0," published and sold
by J. DOCKLAND; 243, Bronii.street, Holborn, and
which may be hal it all the fashionable Toy-shops
in Town and Country. No history of the glorious
CaMpaigns .f the nastoturat. WEL:Attaidu can give
such a correct idea of the topography of France,
Spain, and Portugal : it is no wonder, therdore, that
all ranks should be eager to be instructed in this fa-
shionable Gime, not only as an agreeable pastime.
but as a most fascinating vehicle of instruction and
mental improvement. The heroic Marquis Wea.una-
lox and the most distinguished Officers of the amities
under his command have expressed their unqualified
approbation of the Game of the Peninsula, in terms
highly flattering to the ingenious inventor, whom his
Lordship has honoured with his particular PATRON.
Act Those who amuse themselves with the Game
of the Peninsula may truly say—Lail:on *ion kill !
No question is calculated more strongly to affect
I the minds of our fellow countrymen than that of
the projected promotion of the religious instruction
of the Natives of the British Dominions in the East.
Totnany it may, upon the first blush, appear impQs.
sable that objections should exist to-any plan calcu-
lated to excite the moral improvement of mankind,
whilst others, more versed in the history and tenure
of our possessions in India, see in the attempt a latent
mischief, which like some as yet unelicited fire, will
Iwhen called into action, consume the substance that
bare it, and involve all around it in universal con.
'flagration.—By a perusal of Mr. C. MARSH'S Pamph.
let, - contained in No. IV. of the ParartiLmen,
persuasion must be excited that nothing could be
more objectionable than the plan proposed. But
on weighin the arguments used by Mr. Waxen-
rout ha itsiavour, in a suhscquent number of that
Work, nothing should appear to be more desirable...—
These two Pamphlets are, beyond comparison, best
calculated to give a clear and concise view of the
question of any that have appeared, and cannot he
read without the deepest interest.
In The Gcsette will be found an Order in Council,
