THE STEAM CARRIAGE.

Yesterday afternoon Mr. Guilts EY's steam-carriage
was exhibited, at the request of the Duke of WELLING-
TON, in the Hounslow Barrack-yard, before his Grace,
the Ladies PERCY, DANCE, and MURRAY ; Lords
FITZROY SOMERSET, ROSSLYN, and THOMAS CECIL;

Lieutenant-General Sir W. GORDON, Quarter-master
General; Sir GEORGE MURRAY, Sir CHAS. DANCE,
and a large number of military and scientific Gentlemen.
His Grace, Sir W. 'GORDON, the Ladies PERCY, &c.
had a carriage attached, and rode round the yard, with
the greatest pleasure and satisfaction. Afterwards a
waggon was fastened to the steam-carriage, containing
twenty-seven soldiers, besides Mr. GU EY and two or
three men on the engine, and though the road was
very disadvantageous, being a rough loose sand and
gravel, it drew them round without the least diminution
of its speed , between nine and ten miles an hour. In
these experiments Mr. GURNEY applied his steam gene-
rally but to one wheel, in order to give the company full
proof of the power and practicability of the invention.
Having satisfied them as to this, and as to its manage-
ability, by a variety of involutions and evolutions, he
gave them a specimen of its speed, and drove seven or
eight times round st a, rate of 16 to 17 miles an hour. It
is difficult to say whether the company was more pleased
or surprised at these unequivocal proofs of Mr. Goau EN'S
success. The Duke of WELLINGTON observed that it
was scarcely possible to calculate the benefits we should
derive from the introduction of such an invention as this.

As we anticipated when noticing our Flanders mail,
we have the official accounts of Count P ASK EW ITSCII'S
victory over the Turks in Asia. It is as follows :
