The Duke of GRA PTON being fox-hunting one Cap
near Newmarket, a Quaker, at some distance neon

an eminence, pulled off his hat, and gave a'"
tallyho !" The hounds immediately ran to him, and
being drawn off the scent, were consequently at
fault, which so enraged the Duke, that galloping up
to the offender, he asked him, in an angry tone, " art
thou a Quaker ?" " I am, 'friend," replied the man.
" Well then," rejoined his Grace, " as you never pull
off your hat to a Christian, I will thank you in future
not to pay that compliment to a foal"
His present MAJESTY once said to Sir J. Lawns., a
famous bon-vivant, " They tell me, Sir Jotra, you
love a glass of wine." " Those, Sire, who have so
reported me to your MAJESTY," answered he, bow-
ing profoundly, " do me great injustice ; they should
have said—.a. bottle!"
Mr. Woattates sale of wines, at Knowle, near
Bristol, on Monday last, was attended by all the ton
vivant. for some miles round : some of the old port
sold at eight pounds ten shillings per dozen, and some
of the lots at less than six guineas the dozen !
T. FOLEY, Esq. has been presented by the Free-
holders of the County of Hereford with an elegant
silver cup, which will hold nearly two gallons ; it is
gilt inside, and richly chased and ornamented with
oak leaves and acorns, beautifully executed.
SIR RALPH ABERCROMBIE.--.A Correspondent at
Malta observes, it is a disgrace to see the state of the
Tablet over the Tomb of the immortal ABERCROMBIE.
OUT Readers may recollect that this Hero was laid
under the pavement of one of the bastions or watch-
towers at Fort St. Elmo, the door of which was built
up, and a marble tablet, or slab, sunk in it, with an
inscription explanatory of the gallantry and worth of
this illustrious man.. At present the Tablet is broken,
the letters are covered with mud, and it threatens to
fall from its socket; and no centinel is near the spot,
though a couple are on guard at the elegant monu-
ment, after the model of the Temple of Theseus, at
Athens, erected to the memory of the late Governor
BALL. Surely a monument equally fine ought to be
set down on the spot where the ashes of a Hero so
dear to his country are laid ? and " whose memory
will," as Lord HUTCHINSON, in his dispatches ob-
served, " be embalmed in the recollection of a grate-
ful posterity !"
ANECDOTE OF CHARLES V. OF SPAIN.—The day
'.after CHARLES V. had resigned all his kingdoms to
his son PHILIP. he introduced and recommended to
his service his faithful Counsellor and Secretary, with
these remarkable words The present I make you
to-day, is R far more valuable one than that I made
you yester day."
DRURY-LANE THEATRE.—The Comedy of the
Road to Ruin was again represented last night, and,
with the excellent acting of Messrs. ELLisToN, Mu g-
DEN, and DowroN, gave universal satisfaction to a
numerous and genteel audience. The Melo-drame of
Ella Rosenberg closed the evenines'entertalnuients.•
COVENT-GARDEN.—The Tragedy of King Riclord
111. is likely to prove more permanently succetsfulthan
the brilliant success of the first night promised. Lait
night it attracted an overflowing audience ; and Mr.
MACREADY, whether improved by continued study„ or
inspired by the favour of the audience and the senti-
ment of his own force, exhibited, particularly in the
fourth and fifth Act., new power, precision, and
command. He has also given to the sceneavith Lddy
Anne a higher degree of flexibility
.and finish. The
Tragedy was given out for Monday amidst unusual
expressions of applause. Lodoiska was successfully
revived as the Entertainment : Mrs. Dicitoas, as the
Princess, me:ited and received the most unqualified
approbation. Mr. PHILLIPS went through the part
of I'loreski with great animation, and the performance
altogether was one of great merit, and worthy of the
high- reputation of the ;fheatre.
ADLLPHI THEATRE.—The encreasineprosperity of
this Theatre is justified by the spirited exertions of
the Proprietors. A new Ballet, entitled L'Ariour, or
[Vine no Poison! was brought forward last night'.
Mr. ST. ALBIN, from the Opera-House, and Miss
AYLETT, made ;heir first appearance: they both are
a valuable acquisition to this establishment. The
Miss DENNETS were received, as usual, with the
greatest marks of public favour. The whole of the
performance was received with applause by a crowded
audience.
