THE ARMY
The 24 and 3d Battalions, and roar Coistpanles of the Ist Bat-
talion of the Grenadier regiment of Guards were inspected, foe the
first time, by their Colonel, the Duke of Wewooros, on Saturday
morning, in Hyde park. His Grace was dressed in the uniform of
the Grenadier Guards. The brigade, under'tbe command of the
Hon. Lieut. Col. Townsmeun, formed at half-past nine o'clock, in
Hyde-park, in open column wheeled into line, and took open order.
On the arrival of the Doke, the brigade presented arms; his
Grace then rode down the front of the line, paused up the rear, and
subsequently took his stapion in front of the centre of the brigade.
The line took close order, wheeled back into apes column, and
marched pan in slow and quick time. The brigade haked as the
ground on which it was originally foamed to open calms, wheeled
into line, took open order, and gave the renal sante. The Duke
then rode forward towards the centre, and expressed •himself
highly gratified with the steadiness and appearance of the brigade.
The Duke then left the ground, attended only by his servant. There
were very few persons assembled In the Park, owing to Its not
being generally known that the Inspection was to take pine. The
Duke looked in excellent health.

SALE or as LATE DUKE GP YORK'S FURNITURE.

IPlattlra DAY.

The competition on Saturday to possess some por-
tions of Isk late Royal Highness's property was greater
than at any 'period of the sale. Even at an early
hour the room lb which the auction was held, was
crowded, lair Wits fashionably attired, were gee.
•pusising forwittfl through a deride crowd, in order that
they might' witness the proceedings, and bid for the
lots which they had selected from the catalogue.—
The invalid chairs, walking sticks, and'whips, fetched
a very high price indeed ; so did likewise the two
dressing cases of the Royal Duke, one of which was
'used by him in his Holland campaign. Two lots in
this day's auction, it Iris whispered, had been purchased
by order' f her Royal Highness the Princess Sophia. The
houselg4d steward of the late Royal Duke, Mr. Ude,
was again a purchaser of several-articles, but whether on
his own 'account, or for members of the Royal Family,
did not transpire. Throughout the whole sale Mr.
Christie bad not a single commission to eiecate for the
Royal Family. What lots were particularly wished by
them were not put up at all, but withdrawn altogether.
The plate, consisting of 876,00() ounces, will be sub.
mitted to auction by Mr. Christie early in the month
of Match, and those who have been disappointed in not
obtaining articles, once possesseed by his late Royal
Highness, in the sale just terminated, will then have an
opportunity of gratifying their desires.

ROBBERY OF THE NEAPOLITAN LITTER BAIL
--.......
- - -

A short time ago, we gale an account of the rolsbery
combined on the, Dover mail, and stated that the
thieves mistook the Neapolitan post bag, which con-
tained noth ng but letters for the Paris bag, in which
were nearly 50,0001. worth of jewels. They had, it
appears from the investigation that has taken place,
ascertained from the other side of the water that the
jewels were expected, and they deputed two of the most
resolute and intelligent of their gang to seize open the
bag which contained them, and which was strapped tO
the top of the coach. Some of the City police have
been actively engaged in looking after the two fellow.
who made the daring experiment. It was believed
when first the officers went to Canterbury to ensioirr
into the robbery, that the Neapolitan bag had been stolen
just alter the coach had entered the yard of the ins in
that town. This has been found not to be the fact.
It has been discovered Viet two genteel looking mete
who wore long cloaks, actually got hold of the wrong
bag before the mail was ready to- set off for Loads.,
and carried it under their cloaks (now a common Modp
of concealing " swag"), to an inn at some disease,
from that from which the coach sets off for London,
The moment they reached this inn, they ordered a poi!s-
chaise,. ao4 seld that while it was getting ready, Oar
would take tear Tea was provided imnsediatele, bet
such wasitlreit impatience to -see what lack they had,
that thereiriiiiiioie table with the contents of the bag
the moment the waiter disappeared. The waiter- was
desired not to enter the room until he should hear the
bell; bet whether impelled by cariosity, 'or believing
that be was summoned, he entered the room suddenly,
and saw the two customers looking throes!), the letters,
evidently for the purpose of ascertaining whether there
were remittances in them. They were much confused.
upon being observed,. and crammed the letters into
the bag as expeditiously as possible. They then called
for the post-chaise, and upon being told that it was
ready they ran down stabs with the bag, and such was
their hurry they broke two of the glasses in going in.
Although the night was intensely cold, and the land-
lord expostulated with them open the necessity of
changing the chaise, on account of the inclemency of
the weather, they refused to stops moment. The bag
was not missed until the mail reached Canterbury.
The waiter at the Inn in-which this very extriserdi.
nary scene took place has been some days in town,
and has visited, in company with the officers, all the
haunts of the great bank-note plunderers, in the hope
of being able to point out the two men who commit.
ted this bold bat unprofitable robbery; but the search
has been fruitless.

The Police are perfectly aware of their identity:—
they are known to be two of those villains who have
been,enriched by coach plunder, and have been in the
habit of disposing of their shares to a notorious re•
ceiver. The letters which were contained in the bag have,
it is said by good authority, been burnt, in order that
they may not rise op in judgment against those who
stole them, and all expectation is therefore given up of
the chance of conviction, should the parties at *by
future period be apprehended. It is supposed that the
two persons here alluded to are at Boulogne.
A great number of the Bank-notes, which have been
from time to time stolen out of coaches? have been re-
cently transmitted to London for payment; bat in pro
case has cub been paid for them. They have been all
vent back as Kolar property. •
