RAMSGATE, AUGUST 13.

This delightful Watering Place begins to abound
with fashionable visitants, notwithstanding the im-
mense emigrations for France and the pressure of the
times. There are at this moment but very tew large
houses, in good situations, unoccupied; although se-
veral, upon a grand scale, have been erected since
last season. Indeed, such has been the wonderful
resort to Ramsgate of late years, that numerous new
buildings are rearing their heads fast, all around the
town. We attribute the partiality shewn to Rams-
gate, (in addition to its line local situation and salu-
brioos sea breezes,) to the very fine sands we tali so
justly boast of for sea-bathing, our beautiful pier,
clegaudy niacd up and well conductei warm baths,
,and numerous other inducements held put tia•thel
happy few whose ch.cumstances enable them to so-
Burn to a Watering Place with their iOntilies. Mr.
BEAR, of the Albion Hotel, has, with his wonted
public spirit, fitted up and ornamented his spacious
Assembly Rooms in most superb style, and at -an
'enormous expense, where Musical Pronienadec arc
I held once a week, which are well attended, being a
charming evening's amusement.. The yachts of Lord
HAnnottoucti and WILLIAM Cunt's, Esq. are in
our harbour, the owners of which vessels add not a
little to the gaiety of the scene. The Noble Lord, it
is said, is about to take a trip along the whole line of
the French coast.

We gave, yesterday, the entire list of Military and
2C4val Promotions from the Gazette. In addition,
however, to the Flag Promotions there enumerated,
the following Commanders and Lieutenants have
been appointed Post-Captains and Commanders re-
spectively :
Captains James Tomlinson, James Hay, Sir Chas. T. Jones,
C. B. Strung, J. Baldwin, Robert Riddell, G. A. Westphal,'
I'. W. I'. Wallis, Hon. F. Noel, Timothy Striven, C. B. Hugh
Alixaader Dobbs, C.D.

Lieutenants Joseph Griffith,, P. H. !lambly, R.. C. Barton,
John Maples, M. H. Herbert, W. C. Astley, Caleb Jackson,
Charles B. Louis, R. B. T. Sutton, Henry Boreler, George
Caeyne, John Murray, (C.)
The cases of Sir C. WOLSELEY, and his worthy
coadjutor HARRISON, have not yin been moved into,
the Superior Court of Session. Their indictments at
present stand for the Quarter Sessions in October
next—so that it is at least a question whether their
trials will take place at the ensuing Assizes.
A General Meeting throughout the kingdom of
all unrepresented people, on the day after Christmas
Day next, is talked of, ac the time fixed for Return,.
ing New Members to the Commons! ! I It is denied
by some of the legal advisers of these Meetings, that
there is ANY LAW for regulating the nous OF WRITS.
FEMALE UNION SOCIETIES.—We have heard lately
of some toasts said to be given at a Meeting of the
Stockport Female Reform Society ; at the next sitting
of their Convention, we recommend them to copy a
little Republican propriety, from the following senti-
ments proposed at the last Assembly of the Ladies of
Chilicothe (U.S.)O July 4.—" THE RIGHTS 01 WOMAN:
Innocence, M esty, and Prudence ; may she rest
satisfied with these, without investigating any others.
—Morizsry ; may the Men respect it, that it may be
held in estimation by the Women —MATRIMONY, ve-
nerable for its origin and antiquity, and eminently
useful in preserving morality and true liberty.—THE'
MARRIED LADIES: may the domestic virtues engage
their attention.—THE YOUNG LADIES : may those of
this class, between 15 and 50, be shortly struck off
from thd list of single girls ! —OLD BACHELORS : may
Love seize and punish them for their sacrifice of time,
with as much happiness as they are able to bear," &c.
These toasts are worth the cognizance of Mesdames
HODGSON, HALIAWAT% HAMBLETON, and Co.—ln
the year 1547, a Proclamation was issued by HENRY
Val. commanding " that women should not meet t -
gether to &Mk and talk ; and that all men should
keep their wives in their houses."
