ROYAL SPORT.—The KING having yesterday wounded
a wild sow, slighted to pursue her on hot, and recanted very
much fatigued after a chase of nearly twi hours.--Piists. •
In3ependently of the Prose Romance, left by the hue
Mrs. RADCLIPIS, for the press, it appears there was a peeled story,
called St. Alban's Abbey, for the publication of which), Wane ar-
rangements bad been commenced during her life, but which were
suspended by accidental circumstances. To title Metrical Tale
(which accompanies het Prose Romance), Mr Waxman Scow has
alluded in his Preface to one of the volumes of Ballantyne's Nove-
lists. " Notwithstanding," says Sir Wat.rsa, a her refraining from
publication, it is impossible to believe that anima:batten so strong,
supported by such ready powers of expression, should have remained
inactive during so long a period ; but the manuscripts on which she
was occasionally employed, have as yet been withheld from the
public. We base some reason to believe, that arrangements were
at one time almost concluded between Mrs. Rancurre and a highly
respectable publishing house, respecting a Poetical Romance, but
were broken off in consequence of the AntliOr changing or delay-
ing her intention of publication. It is to be hoped, that the world
will not be ultimately deprived of what undoubtedly must be the
source of much pleasure whenever it shall see the yd."
In the vicinity of Blair Adam, a short tome since, as
one of the female servants, in leaving the house, was
passing aome of her former fellow•servants, who were
at that One occupied in heating a very large boiler, o::e
of the Men, in .port, took her up in his arms, and faceti
cubly said, that ai she was now flitting, and this might
be the last time they might all meet, he would 4' give
her a dip in the boiler." A struggle ensued, they lost
their balance, and, horrible to relate, were plunged into
the vessel, which at the moment was nearly full of
boiling water. The injury sustained was' such, that the,
rtvin died the same evening, And the woman expired
nest morning in tl,e most exeruciatir.g agonies.
