READING SAUCE. •
ir COCKS, the Inventnr and Proprietor of the
si • CELEBRATED READING SAUCE, bogs most re-
spectfully to caution the Nobility, Families, and the Public, against
the daily frauds and impositions practised by many London and
Country Oilmen and Fish Sauce Venders, to deceive and deprive
them of the

GENUINE READING SAUCE.
None are genuine but those which have the corks sealed with the
impression, "J. Ochs, Reading," and also the following descrip-
tion of the Sauce on an orange-coloured label, " Reading Sauce
for Fish, enriching Gravies, &c. Prepared and Sold, Wholesale
and Retail, by J. COCKS, Reading."
This Sauce is generally used at table with all sorts of Fish, in
preference to all other Fiah Sauces, and is esteemed peculiarly deli-
cious with Game, Wild Fowl, Hashes, Steaks, and Cold Meat.—
Warranted to keep good Seven Years in any climate. It is
presumed that no Sauce ever met with such general approbation
and extensive sale. It is patronised and recommended by most of
the Flaw FAMILIES in the Kingdom, and is retailed in Londori by
250 of the most respectable Oilmen and Fish Sauce Venders; in
Bath, by 30; Bristol, 20; Edinburgh, Glasgow, Perth, and Aber-
deen, 50; and by nearly all the principal Fish Sauce Dealers in
the United Kingdom, most of whom sell Coors's Genuine and
Superior Essence of Aricnovres, made with prime Gorgona Fish,

ANECDOTES OF LOUfS
. _•

. .
Louis XVIII. was a perms
of most engaging conver-
talon, and it became the fashion, at the Restoration, to
comphre hirit to Henry IV. It was, perhaps, to bear
out the likeness that he frequently indulged in 6on,
mots, in which he was not without success. Many have
been marked by happy turns of compliment, satire, or
magnanimity. His observation on the neglect of dui),
By the public servants, and the mode of escape of La-
vedette, was worthy of Henry IV. " The only person,"
stud he, whose duty has beet done in this affair is Ma-
dame Lavalette." His,pleasantries sometimes gave of-1
fence to the transfuges of the Imperial Court—among
others to M. de Segur, to whom he observed upon his
frequent change of coats in such a manner as to re-
maid the Chamberlain of his being a torn•coat. Ano-
ther instance is related of his turn fit satire, in which he
displa)ed the more respect Able virtae of intrepidity.
During his residence in, we believe, a town in Germany,
having appeared at the window of his apartment, a
shot was fired, and the ball grazed his temple. The
emigrant cow fiefs ran up to hi rria:l consternation, udan't
make yourselves uneasy, Gen'lemen," said he, u you
would merely have to cry, • Live Charles the Tenth l'"
The Duke de Berry, taking offence at some officer in
public, personally assaulted him, and AC! u.,11y to:e off
his epaulettes. The insulted officer waited upon the
King to complain of the outrage on himself, and the
insult offered to the French uMform. The King adopted
the only course, 'probably, which could satisfy the. jus-
tice of :he case without compromi,ing his own or his
family's honour.—" Sir;" said he, " Berry is a poor fel-
low, and 1 suppose he wanted a pair of epaulettes; al-
low me tl present you with a new pair in place of the
ones which he has taken." The Officer, on his re-
turn to hi, lodgings, found himself promoted to the
rext military rank, and a pair of epaulettes to corre-
spond to his new dignity.

PETERSBUItGIT, AUGUST 15.

The Emperor, in his tour to the south-east provinces
of his empire, will visit a part of his Asiatic dominions,
crossing the Ural Mountains, which separate Europe
and Asia. The Itinerary of his Majesty has been pub-
lished, stating the several towns through which be will
pass, the day of his arrival, and that of his departure.
It appears from this statement, that the whole tour will
amount to 6,354. versts (4,236 English miles), and that
he will he back at Zarskoje-Selo on the sth November.
His Majesty left St. Petersburgh on the 28th August.

All dOtilit as to the late of Irvaiiika is at an odd, as'
the fown frigate has a'riived, with intelligence from
Mexico, up to the 51st Of Julf, which confirms
lcount of the execution of this rash adventurec. He was
shot on the 19th of July, ptirsuant to a Decree of Con-
gress, passed when it was first known that he was about
to attempt to regain his authority as Emperor. As
snow as the news reached Mexico great rejoicings took
place, and the city was illuminated. The capital was
perfectly tranquil. This intelligence is contained in a
Mexican newspaper that has been received by a mer-
cantile house in the City.

Intelligence has also been received that Lima is in
possession of BOLIVAR ; and thus the independence of
Metiio and Peru may be considered as complete.

Dispatches were this morning received at the Foreign
Office, DJOining•street, from Trinidad, r f the 9th of
August, and from the Bahamas of the 12th, but they
contAin no intelligence of importance. All was traLquil
at both places at the respective dates abovementioned.

iA Lady coniplaining to the watelman that he did
not attend to his duty whan people were-asleep, the fel-
low referred her to Mr. Hayman, who &omit's coming
bomeat all hours in the morning, could iiiform her that
hewn hewer froth his post.
ILlepan's wife was ordered by the i hysicians to
Falnce for the benefit of her hellth. She afterwards
wrote to him to came and fetch her, which he refaced
to do. Some time aster her death, on locking over the
charges of her Nile: al, he said to P.sine; the architect,'
who was his particular triend, and will knew on what
indifferent terms they lived, at 'the same time shrugging
up his shou:ders ; ~ Well, I ought not to giumble, for
she would have paid such a bill for me with pleasure."
Hayman, it is said, painted the original Barley-mow,
in Piccadiliy, in reference to which, flogarth has intro.
duced him in one of his pictures as a sign painter, with
the elbows of his coat torn, and the shirt visible.

There was, in+lay man's time, a song by Christopher
Smart, which used to be sung by the common people,
beginning with these lines—
" Cupid shoots like Hymen's archer,
Wheresoe'er the urchin" turns."
The real words were*Hayinan's .archer, alluding to a
picture of Cupid, painted by this artist.
Hayman painted all. the 'rout of the boxes at Ber-
mondsey Spa, to which place the body of artist; used
many years to go to a commemorative annual dinner.

masa M Brest or say other port of -France, without instant
premed= in this country to meet it. The French Cabinet must
know that luck would be the immediate resat of any alarming des
monstraciotia tech as the Clark" heralds; atsd'that France now par
woes no marine that could cope with the naval power of thia
try. Its strange, that while the fold we Cher' Courier is-brewing
aOuddenotorm of this description, the "tench Ministerial papers
have not a ripple -on their surface. The .7sursal des Debuts of Fri-
day (M. de Villele's paper) gives the strongest assurances cf the
most pielfic intentions on the part of France—a policy this great
Power, under 'listing eircumstances,would be Insane not to put sue."
The Editor then quotes, from the Journal des Debate,
the article on which we commented yesterday.

This morning we received Lisbon Papers to the 31st
ultimo. One of them contains ap article on the state of
South America, deprecating all foreign interference•
and claiming to Spain and Portugal the sole right of
governing countries " they have colonized at the' ex-
pen,eef their population and riches." .If Spain and
Portugal .possessed the power, no -one would dispute
their right; but South America has ceased to be a co-
pony of Spain and Portugal, and is, de facto, independent.
If, however, the mother countries can again bring them
under subjection, no European Power will prevent them.
The South American'"State% can require nothing fairer
than this; but they may as justly deprecate the interfe-
rence of any other Power against them, as Spain or
Portugal can *do that of aid offered to assist them in
maintaining the independence they have achieved.
The I.isbon Gazette, from the 24th to the 30th
iii-
clusive, is almost entirely taken up with eztracts from
rthe French add Madrid Papers, particularly the I?estau-
tador, and with Orders of the Day, &c. relative to the
Army. The following are extracts:

THE EMIGRAATS TO SOUTH AFRICA.

It is already well known that the attempt to establish
an English colony in South Ati ica has not been success-
ful ; but we were not aware of the extent of the distress
suffered by the emigrants, until we read the " Report of

illustrative• of the pi cseat condition of the Settlei s."—
Fiom the Appendix to this Report we make the fol-
lowing extracts:
• The two following letters .were written by Gentle-
men who are both heads of-respectable patties, and who
had lived in genteel and comfoitable circumstances in
their native cuantry :

, You ask toe. for an account of our situation ; which

settlers, as regards our crops and prospect of friod for

itnd in heaps for burning, before we plough the ground
Igain. The rust has utterly destroyed it ; not a grain
have we laved. My barley, from the drought, and

Mr: ScAttLETT contended that the defendant had had.
probable cause for every step he took. Could any man
doubt that Bennet was one of the party who invited the
defendant, by means of:Jacobs, into the pvlsopPi Jc•was
not a very unreasonable suspicion, that Bennet, having
been prosecuted by Mr; Roubell as Attorney, had been a
party to the outrage, and also that he would not be
Averse to putting his hand in another man's pocket. '
The LORD CHIEF Jt7STICE summed up. Ile thought
that the malicious prosecution And the libel deserved
very serions consideration.; it.was his opinion that the
plaintiff was entitled to their verdiLt on this second point.
Verdict for the defendant on the first charge; for the
plaintiff on the second.—Damages £lO.

LEICESTER BOROUGH SESSIONS.

ItEV. It. DAVIS V. LILLY.

This case came on to be argued before the Recoil-
DER this day, in the shape of an appeal from the deci-
sion
of the Magistrates atthe Exchange. Mr. BoNu, for.
the respondent, addressed the Court at some length, to
shew that his client was entitled to Easter Offerings, as
due to him of common right as Vicar of the parish of
St. Nicholas, in this town. Mr. F. l;ANK.tur, for the,
appellant, insisted (the right of custom having been
relinquished by Mr. Bond) that his client was not liable,
because he belonged t that class of persons (labourers),
who were exempted from the payment of such offer-
ings, and called witnesses to prove the fact. 'lt ap-
pealing, however, that though Lilly generally worked
at his trade (shoemaking) as a journeyman, that he did
sometimes make shoes to order, the Recorder heid that
he did not come within the meaning of the Act, and
was, therefort, liable to the Vicar's dem 4thl of sixpence:
that is twopence per head for-every individual above
the age of_ sixteen. The RttvonciEn said the case had
been well argued on both sides, and lamented that
ob-
servations had been used by Mr. Bond, and replied to
by Mr. Bankars, which had nothing to do with the
question. The appellant had a right to appeal, as he
had done, and even to call upon others to assist him, if
he thought proper. -Although this case haS been de-
cided against Lilly, it clearly appears, that all persons
of the class of labourers, that is, all who do not manu-
facture and sell their own-goods, are exempt from the
payment of Easter Offerings.

FROM THE NEW TIMES.

We wish to create nu alarm,' says the Couiier. This is very
lb:Pulsate; for certainly no alarm will be created by oste worthy co-
.emporary's paragraphs. Ire has cried Wolf ! so often, that he now
cries it wholly in vain. Ilia present terrors are occasioned by a
circumstance in which, it seems, he has been much more sharp-
sighted than our Ambassador at Paris. Within the last two months
we arc told fourteen cargoes of hemp, masts, oak timber,
&c. have been .delivered into the aesenals at Brest; and Sir
CHARMS STUART, we are to presume, has shift his eyes to shit won-
derful importation. Indeed!

6, If this be the case, perhaps there is nothing very woaderful in
it; perhaps the Brest arsenals may receive twice 'fourteen cargoes
of naval stores withisnat leading to any necessary inference that the
peace of Europe will be at all disturbed. But somebody has seen
some ships of war-fitting out at Brest ! And so they may have done
almost any time the last eight years at Portsmouth and. Plymouth.
For our part we are inclined to think that the Lords of the Adnii-
I Lacy pay quite as much attention to what is going on at Brest, ind
understand its object quite as well as the Gentlemen at the Costriir
Office ; and as the latter,wids to create ito alarm—why, we are not
alarmed—that's all."

FROJI THE BRIM!! PRESS.

•• The Cburier, of late, has talked of nothing but of armed pre-
paration and war. One of our Admirals was called by the seamen
Foul-weather Jack,' from his presence being always ominous of
a storm ; and the Ex-Government Gazette is completely a politi-
cal augur of the same description. Like the Trojan Cassandra,
it is eternally raving of threataiing ills to come. 'The worst of
it is, that its annunciations are as wholly] unattended to ; no
one believes them,—they are like the idle wind that passes an.
regarded. The tale of the formidable preparations in Brest,
where, according to the Croaking. Gazette of war, eight sail of the
line, five large frigates and four smaller, four brigs, and No sloops,
were getting ready for sea, is one, we are persuaded, of Mere ro-
mance. No preparations of anything like that amount are making
in this port. Demonstrations so decidedly warlike could not
escape the vigilance of our Government, and would be met at
once by a demand of explanation, and a poirerful fleet from our
ports. Our lino-of-battle ships would at once be uncovered, and
their topsails bent to the wind, ready for action. Any Ministry
would deserve to be impeached that suffered a hostile squadroar,
of the strength mg numberi szientioned in the Carrier, to be

SAGACITY OF A FOX.

A few days ago, two foxes were discovered in the gardens at
Hootort the seat of Sir T. S. M. Stanley ; one of them afforded
much sport, and was killed; the ether was permitted to escape-
Sir Thomas's hounds drove a fine dog fox front cover, and had
a glorious run with him to Brimatage—in the' whole, a dis-
tance of about twenty miles.: Being closely pursued, Bs ynard
made for a farm-house there, and leaped on a tvall.about six
feet high, and front thence on an adjoining eart•house, about
three feet higher, close to the dwelling house, which, on that
side, is nearly covered with ivy. This afforded too fine a shelter
to be lost, and up it did the cunning animal creep, till he had
gained the roof, and was screened from observation. The hounds
soon came up, and had the scent fresh to the wall, where they were
obliged to " stoß at a gage," and pursuit terminated, greatly to
the disappointment of a large field. In the course of the night, the
farmer was much annoyed by the barking of his yard•dog, which,
next morning, was observed making several attempts to get or the
cart-house.—This afforded a clue to the farmer that Unlit strange
visitor was near, and be accordingly got a ladder, and mounted the
roof, where, snugly couehant in a spout, closely shaded by the
friendly ivy, was sly Reynarl! The animal made a fresh start, de-
scended to the cart-house and the ground, and once more tit free
into the fields without the least injury.

FOOT RACE.

Thursday last, a foot race of one mile, was run over Knaves-
mire, for 60 sovereigns, between Joseph Bean, of Sand Hutton,
and George Orli&ld, of Scrayingham. At starting, Bean took the
lead, but Drit ield soon passed him, and won by about ten yards.
Notwithstanding the Course was covered with snow and ice, the
race was run in six minutes. After which, another race of 100
yards was run, by a young man of the name of Barnet, and a coun-
tryman, which was won easy by the former.

INUNDATIONS IN GERMANY.—APPEAL to
the BENEVOLENT.—The devastation* lately caused by the
overflow of the riven in Germany, and particularly in she Grand
Duchy of Baden, the Hessian Provinces on the Rhine, Bavaria,
and Wurtemberg, have compelled nearly 50,000 poor sufferers to
appeal for relief, in their almoit indescribable distress, to the cha-
sitable British Nation.
Through whole districts the waters have swept off every descrip-
tion of property, and all their little farming stock. At this period
of the year the severity of the weather, much more intense there
than in England, adds to their misery ; and a more pitiable case was
hardly ever laid before that Nation whose benevolence has never
hitherto been called upon in vain.

By far the greaterpart of these unfortunate people have numerous
families, and are at this moment in want of every necessary of life.
In making their melancholy situation known to Great Britain,
Mr. N. M. Rothschild entertains a firm hope, that these numerous
sufferers will not be the first from whom the proverbial benevo-
lence of the Nation will be withheld.

first appearante at this Theatre in the character of

of Miss PATON't powers the public are already aware.
Her entrance upon these boards was greeted with ap-
plause of an enthuiastic nature. She was particularly
rccessful in the address to the moonlight, in which she
displayed aft
.her .iiranscendant science and execution.
She also gave the duet (with Mr. PEARMAN), " And
can your heart forgive me," with great reeling. Mr.
PEARMAN'S effurts were deservedly successful. His
songs were delivered with marked attention to the pecu-
liar spirit of the music, and executed with great pre-
cision.—The House was fully and fashionably attended.

FRENCH RACES.

The Race for the Royal Prise was run on Monday last at the
Champ de Mars.
The Prize, which was Six Thousand Francs, was disputed for by
nine horses, who ran in a perfect cluster; and it was won by Pene-
lope, entered by the Duke de Guiche. The length of the course
was 4000 (metres) paces, and was gone over by the victorious mare
as follows: she performed the first heat in five minutes and nineteen
seconds; and the second heat in five minutes and fourteen seconds.
Between the heats aßace was run oVer the same Course between
two English horses, which was said to have been occasioned by a
very considerable get. The winning horse, which belonged to M.
Cremieur, performed the distance in five minutes 27 seconds andl
three-fifths beating its opponent only by two-fifths of a second.
After the second heat of the Royal Race the winning horse,
Penelope, with its head ornamented with flowers and ribbons, was
led by the jockey, who had a branch of olive in his hand, before the
Prince's Stand, where its owner received the prize from the hands
of Monsieur. An immense crowd attended the Races, which were
favoured by most beautiful weather.

tle boy named James Green. The complainant stated, that about
ten o'clock in the morning he was desired by his master to lock a
small portmanteau, but the lock requiring great force, he was un-
able to do so, when the defendant accused him of having injured
the lock, and reaching down his bunting whip, full of large and hard
knots, be desired the boy to take a his coat and waistcoat, and
proceeded to beat him with all his strength, and notwithstanding his
cries, he continued to do so upwards of half an hour.
