Their Majesties, we have the pleasure to state, remain quite
well. On Wednesday, the anniversary of the King's natal
day was celebrated with becoming splendour and hospitality at
Windsor Castle. In the evening a grand dinner was given to
the members of the royal family, the cabinet ministers, the
leading officers of state, and official characters, &c. &c. Their
Majesties had afterward; au evening party. On Friday his
Majesty arrived at St. James's Palace from Windsor, and
shortly afterwards held a levee, which was but thinly attended
in consequence of the greater part of the nobility having left
town. Monday next the King will review the 2d regiment
of Life Guards in the Great Park, and in the evening give a
~,,rand entertainment to the officers of the regiment in St.
George's-hall. Their Majesties have signified their intention
to honour Egham races with their presence next week. The
tent, once the property-of the famous Tippoo sultan, will be
be pitched for the accommodation of the royal party.
Ministers have very cunningly refrained from applying for
the supplies till such a period of the session as rendered itim-
possible that their demasads should be refused. Accordingly,
we find that the number oNetrnbers present on the occasions,
when the ways and means are discussed, do not exceed thirty or
forty. We were wont to be told that in matters of pounds,
shillings, and pence, the reformed house would showitself re-
markably vigilant, if not niggardly. The reverse has turned
out to be the case. In no former parliament did we ever iyit-
ness so many unscrupulous votes—so few accounts challenged,
—and so much apathy in the disbursement of the public money.
The house sustains well our epithet—it is indeed a prodigal
.assembly—prodigal of other people's cash.—Edinburgh Adver-
tiser.

The Lord Chancellor is extremely angry with the observations
touchinghis lordship's uncalled-for attack upon his Royal High-
ness the Duke of Cumberland, which appeared in our last num-
ber. His lordship has sent a solicitor to our office to know who
wrote that article, and above all, who furnished the information
it contained, preparatory to his lordship's instituting proceedings
ao•ainst us. Of course the gentleman took nothing by his motion,
and we have to wait for the further movements of the "noble
and learned lord." We are quite satisfied that they will be in
strict accordance with the character and principles of an ultra-
defender of the liberty of the press, a coadjutor of the most vio-
lent ministerial Journals, and a ei-decant writer in the Edinburgh.
Review.- -John Bull.
The Weymouth coach, which left London on Saturday morn-
inn at five o'clock, arrived in Weymouth a few minutes after
eight. when the passengers for the Channel islands embarked
on board his Majesty's packet Flamer, Capt. Frederick White,
and arrived at Guernsey on Sunday morning at four o'clock,
making the distance from London to Guernsey, by sea and land,
in twenty-three hours—a thing unprecedented on the station.
The new Postoffice regulations respecting the packets, which
are ordered to wait the arrival of tne Magnet until nine o'clock,
will now be proved to be a great public`accommodation. The
Duke of Buckingham put his yacht into Guernsey harbour on
Monday, having struck on a reef of _rocks and carried away her
keel, and sustained considerable damage.

ANEcnorE.—" What are you doing there, Solomon ?" said
the patron of a Broad-river boat, a few evenings since, as he
had made his cable fast to a tree for the night, I'm only jist
drivin' a nail in the boat at the edge of the water, to see if the
river will rise any afore morning."—Anzerican paper.
StvA Ltows.—A further proof of the migration of the four
British swallows to South-Western Africa has been afforded of
,ate years, by the circumstance that their earlier or later arrival
'depends on the period of the prevailing south-west wind. The
present year we nad a few days of that wind early in April, and
the swallows were all early this year. On the same wind re-
turning, in the end of the same month, the chartlets and sand-
martins arrived ; and the same wind, about the Bth of May,
brought the swifts. Dr. Foster has observed that, during up-
wards of ten years past, the first of these birds have come with
south ani westerly winds.
