BRiiHTON. AUGUST 15.

This morning it brilliant sight presented itself in
the offing--seven ships of size and two cutters, 141
under fall sail before the wind, and corning ffori
the westward. The morning being fine, the cliffs
and the shore were, in a short time, covered with
the gay and fashionable visitants of the place, and
crowds of the inhabitants. The vessels, as they ap-
proached; were soon recognized to be e three ez-
acted•ltogral yachts, viz. the loyal Sovereign, t's.e
Royal George,. and he Prince 'Regent ; the Ltirrzy
frigate, the HIND sloop of war, and two brigs
war, one of which is the CANlrulox accomPanied
by a cutter. They got to anchor in the bay ttglviet'l
eleven and twelve o'clock. In the meantime nume-
rous boats, crowded with the curious and inquisitive,
..tiad set off to meet them ; and, indeed, for the velic).l.e
day, the beats have been kept in requisition, fresh
parties setting out as soon as any of them had landed
their previous cargoes. Their stay, however, has been
but short. Towards evening they all got under weir:;,
and proceeded to the South West, and by nightfal
were all cut of sight. This is attributed to some
chanFe.in the KING'S intention to proceed to the
rf R ight, &c. His MAJESTY was expected to L-..•
here to-morrow or Thursday, but when he will ar-
rive is now quite uncertain.

His MAJESTY has given up his intention of a
sea ercursion.

Perhaps there never was a volume published -co
truly British, and so adapted to the affections and
taste of the nation, as Captain Pnion's Account
All the Voyages round the World, from the first
Magellan, to the latter ones of Cooke, Vaneouve;
Perouse, Turnbull, Krusenstem, icc. To every ship's
cabin, as well as every Englishman's fire-side, it
constitute an inexhaustible fund of entertainmert
and instruction.

A letter from Antwerp, dated the I Ith, has 0-e
following passage:—" CemanG arrived here
yesterday in an Admiralty yacht: some say he if,
going into Italy to seek his wife, and bring her t 3
England ; ethers say that the affair of the QUEEN is
the cause of this Continental trip; at all events it is
not usual to steer to Italy up the mouth of the
Scheldt ; but you know the old saying, • Every road
leads to Rome."

Among the strangers yesterday below the Bar
.he House Of Lords, were, Messrs. BIIOUGHAM, Deg-
WAN. WILLIAM, TYNDAL, and Dr.. IeIISHINGTOr.
They were led in by Sir TaoMAS Trawutrz, to see
the preparations made for the trial. Exactly before
the middle of the Bar the witness is to stand, with
the interpreter and the shorthand writer on either
.side of him. The space in which the three are to be
.statioued is railed on both sides. Beyond the rail c
the right side is a space for her Majesty's Counsel.
By the present arrangement. her *Majesty's Counsel
addressing a witness could have only n side view ei
him, and accordingly Mr. BROUGHAM suggested, 01:3
it would be necessary to affix some sort of rail at the
back of the Bar, which would keep the witness El
f.tr backward • as• to enable the examining CounA
to have a full view of his person. The suggr:-
dons will be forthwith carried into execution.—
Inside the bar, immediately beneath the Apt where
the Queen's Counsel are to stand, is a stikeli seat for
her INl‘Jearr. Sir THOMAS TSIMMITT attntigned
to Mr. BitOVOSIAM, that a chair Amishd be placed
near this seat for one of her MAJASTeSI4dies. He-
intimated that her. Murales wishes, as to any fur-
ther arrangement for her aceorsodation, would re.

with a very heavy storm of rain, tb underi and lightning.
NOVELTY IN RILIURRICTIONABIC Secitaroz.--At

jilt been granted to the Jews ,for a burial ground.
According_ to their religious customs, they immedi-
ately consecrated it by the sacrifice and inhumatioa

The savoury appearance dale Victim having tempted
a dozen poor Hebrews, they assembled in the night,
profaned the asylum of the dead, dug up the cock, and
put him upon the spit. The singular theft s'allnee
discovered till some days afterwards, to the greet
scandal of the whole Synagogue.
