The vacant Government of Cowes Castle, in the
Isle of Wight, has not yet been filled up. Nume-
rous applications have already reached the Comman-
der-in-Chief. The late incumbent, Colonel DitouLY,
died in affluence, and has left the bulk of his fiirtune
in provisions for the widows of deceased officers, and
other objects of military want.
The Miners in the employment of Colonel BrAtr-
stomr, amounting to upwards of 2,000, who lately
turned out for an increase of wages, returned on

deration. It is said that their wages have not, during
these two last years, averaged ss. a man per week.
Yesterday her Royal Highness the Princess Au-
ousTA gave a plentiful dinner to the whole of the
w.zkmen employed in the Royal Gardens and Plan-
tations at Kew. Three ample tables, most beauti-
fully furnished with cold roast beef, puddings, Ece.
were set out in the Holly-walk, on the farther side of
the Lawn, at a distance of nearly half a mile froth
the Palace, and upwards of sixty persons sat down to
them. They were divided into three classes: at the
first table were the gardeners of the Botanic Garden;
at the second were those of the Kitchen-garden; and
the third was occupied by the labourers employed its
the improvements which are carrying on under the
direction of the Princesses. During the repast, theit
Royal Ifghnesses, attended by General TAYLOR, visi-
ted the scene, and walked several times round the
whole of the tables, with the most graceful conde-
scension. After their Royal Highnesses had retired,
the health of the QueeN and Princesses was drank in
plentiful libations of porter, brought to the scene of
action in barrels, and, after sitting about two hours,
the numerous assembly departed to their several
homes, bearing with them large portions of the pro-
visions for their families. _ _

A letter from Aix-la-Chapelle says.--" The Mar-
quis Da MAISON, General and Peer of France, re-
ceived, yesterday morning, a letter from Prince roL-
KONSICY, to inform him, that the EMPEROR granted
hint the audience he solicited of his MAJESTY, at the
ball given by the town. When the General presented
himself at the Emperor's Palace, the PRINCE had re-
turned front walking with the Duke Da FLIORRLIRU.
Baron DE Jost t NI having introduced General Matson,
his Majesty deigned to converse with him for a long
time, and the conversation was almost wholly on po-
litics. ' All nations,' said the Emperor Mum/twins,
4 most every where be delivered from oppression.—
You see what I have done in Poland, and what I
will do throughout my States. With tto
France• I sincerely desire that she may taped
great, and strong ; you may in this believe met Gs-
sera', I am a man of integrity !"

PLYMOUTH.
The Officers of the 86th Infantry, at Plymouth, on Wednes-
day last repeated their diverdon of Hone Racing, which was
much increased by lengthening the distances. But, perhaps, the
most amusing scene of The day consisted in a match rode by two
Captains of the Royal Navy, in complete jockey habiliments,
on common hacks, who, though they set all sail, were closely
`followed In their aofze by a butcher's boy on a polity, with a
baiter only, and both distanced in each heat, at the winning-
post, with the greatest apparent ease, to the infinite divenion
of a numerous company.

Mr. Hays s, of Duos, Cutle, in Berwickshire, had,
last week, one of the finest dare sport known for a lens time
In that County. Their first fox, after running eleven miles in
51 nannies, without a cheek, was pulled down In high style;
the hounds almost immediately after found their second fox,
which led them a Mace of fourteen miles in an hour and six mi-
nutes before he was killed.
There were more horses at Stafford Races than at-
tended any other Meeting in that or the adjoining
counties ; and although there were not many heats,.
there was excellent sport. The odds in each race
were on the field. There is a difference-of opinion
respecting the winner of Wednesday's plate. Twd
hoses belonging to Lord Rosamoaz started for it :
and it is not agreeable to the laws of racing that two'
horses, belonging to the same person, should run for
a plate, althougfi it is allowable in a stakes. The
question to be decided is, whether the running for a
handicap stakes, and carrying handicap weights, al-
though a plate is included, abrogates the plate laws?
The Theatre, on Wednesday night, was crowded in.
every part. The entertainments were patronised by
the Stewards.
