polis. Here, as well as in London, •her MAJESTY
seems to form this general topic of conversation, and
the Qurzx is decidedly as popular here as in any
town of Great Britain. Some of the Clergy and
other High-Tory individuals in Sussex, endeavoured
to prevent the Church-bells from ringing, and to
di%suade the people from any manifestations of joy,
when the arrival of the QUEEN in England was an-
nounced : but it was totally without effect. At many
td the villages the bells rang, and at some few not
only the bells rang, but the whole of the village was
!;ghted up, and bonfires made, while the farmers
assembled with their fowling,pietes, and fired afeu-
de-joit, with three cheers, and " GOD save Me KING
(a.d QUELNE.

The Duchess of GLOUCESTER visited the KING

filer MAJESTY is in treaty for the house of Sir
THOMAS WILSON, at Charltm. near Blackheath. It
is a fine old gothic mansion, and was formerly a
loy4l residence.

We lament to say, that his Royal Highness the
is,,lke of SUSSEX met with a painful accident on Fri-

:,pped, and he fell, by which his right ancle was so

time confined to his room.

!louse for three months certain, at Tunbridge Wells.

Scotland before the KING.

ROWBY a claim, preferred by Captain FITZHAIWING
BERKELEY, to be admitted to the Berkeley Peerage,
and to walk in the Coronation Procession as a Peer
of the Realm ; hut the applications were rejected, as
being matters of which that Coutt could take no
cognizance, as containing claims where there were
points or proofs in dispute.
