most of our Sportsmen to peruse Maj• ir HAWKER'S

has net appeared, as it almost wholly consists of what
has hitherto been omitted in every other publication
on the subject. It is applicable to the Sportsman in
every country, whether in Europe or America.

large stones havi:tg rolled underneath it, kept it up
in that situation until most of the water escaped be-

Getter:a BELORANO has been •aathed Commander in
Chief of the Peruvian Army; and as the plan of
Government was wily to act for the present on the
defensive, and organize the troops, ti.e nominatien
had given satisfaction. Much was hoped from the

A numerous aggregate meeting of the Ramos

It appears by Wesn's tidverttsernent-t, that, in the

others of £lOOO. &c. suflicientle accounts far
the decided preference given to Ills (Aces, 9, Corn-

the Flux Da.twil PRIZE will receive in additi; n
ste4(l,ooo, and may, therefore, become a Prize ef
£BO,OOO Consols.

FR12.1 A BOSTON PAPER.—The ship General Hand,
which has arrived in Baltimore from Liverprof, was
hoarded on the passage from two Bro;sh Indiamen,
which had touched at St. Helena, the Officers of
which reported, that Bonaparte enjoyed the best
health and spirits, and apparently was much resigned
to his situation ; that he took a great share of exer•
cise, particularly on horseback, which was so violent
and rapid, that his attendants and guards could
scarcely keep up with him, and upon being told he
must in future keep a gentler pace, he was displeased,
and shut himself up for two days. The cottage-palace
had not arrived, but was shortly expected.—Bona-
parte is said frequently to console his friend Bet 'rand,
Zcc. by humming the following stanza of an old ballad :
" Every Island's but a prison,
Strongly guarded by the s. a;
England's Regent, for that reason,
A prison'r is as well as a e I"
