ETTRICK • FoR EST PASTORAL CL U R.—Borne.
Anniversary was celebrated in grand style on Toes-
day last, by the Pastoral Club of Ettrick-Forest. The
club met at Selkirk, and after having appointed Mr.
Jame, Hogg as their President, and James Ballantyne,
Esq. of Edinburgh, as Croupier. sat down to a sumptuous
entertninruent. It'ith the poetical talents of Hogg, and
the lit e . • ..ail musical talents of Ballantyne, the com-
pany •peni a very delightful evening. The night was
literally spent in singing. The kealth of Walter Scott,
Esq. the sheriff of the Nmuty,was of course not forgotten
—neither was that of his tuneful friend and brother, the
Ettriek Sierierd, who, next to the mighty minstrel, has
eonfotred ni:ort. honour upon Selkirkshire than any man
now living!
During his skit at Lord Suffield's, last week, the
Dike of Welliogton shut at a hare as it was going out
et 'Thorpe Wood, when a farmer's servant, who was on
the outside of the wood, was slightly wonmled hr some
of the shot from the Duke's grin. A medical gentleman
pissing by at the time, told the Duke that the young
• man woubl stiffer no Inronvenienre from the wounds,
when his timer rejoined the party, and afterwards sent
a donation of five pounds to the yonth.
• -BoN Mo r. —A country Gentleman went to the
Bank last week to receive his dividends. Haring some
cuefneed notion that the often-fixed time to pay in gold,
by which he understood rah was arrived, he refused to 1
take the hank-notes. saying. " No, ae. the tittlee come
at list when there's some infinity' in. ' I proraise to
pop.' and I'll take no more piper. ' The clerk endea-
VOt2 red to esplriti to hiin the sort of bullion payment
that was inten:lftl, adding. that the moment for that
um.: no' rct ware. " Pooh !" said the old gentleman,
Po 4.1 .11 thing—l am to have gold. if I like it, and
no' ritnre- —lettere are all your promisee •' llow
qvwll4 I !:now replied the clerk, "we never keep any
of them!". . ;

The following admonitory remarks ought to be
attended to by Kings find Princes. They were
published in the time of the Stuarts, who, as sub-
sequent events showed. did not profit by them :
Of all kinds of men, tilel is the least beholding unto
Prinees; for he doth most for them, had they du ordi-
narily least for him.
.4 King is the fimntain of lionnor. which should not
run with a waste-pipe, lest the roortiers aril the refer,
and then (as Papists say of their holy wells) it loses the
virtue.
He that ehanzeth thefandamental laws of a Kingdom,
thinketh there is no good title to a Crown but by con•
quest.
His greatest enemies are hisflatterers ; for though
they ever speak on his side, yet their words still make
against hiss.
lie must have a special care that wills Writes keep
not the Facherer; for that is eradele latrortnittm.
Mr. Vansittart, on rending this last remark, will,
without doubt, cease to c aunt Lotteries amongst
his Ways and Means.
The Dublin Evening Poet of Tuesday, after an-
nouncing the death of his late Majesty, makes the
following observations :
" The transactions (luring the late reign were of an
importance infinitely transcending in magnitude and in-
terest all the previous events in our annals. The glo-
rious termination of the French war, which secured, for
a time, tht• colonies of North Amities—the great war
which terminated the independence of the United States
—the wars in India, which have subverted the thrones
of Auringsebe and of Tippoo Sultan, and which have
given to Kneen(' a greater empire than that swayed by
the Cesar, in the zenith of the Roman empire; and.
finally, the French Revolutionary war, which, in point
of importance, variety, and mighty action, towered
' above all the wars recorded in history, are events which
' will ten ler the reign of George 111. the moat remarkable
and imposing of any that the world has yet witnessed.
It is, however, on account of his private virtues, iliac his
late Majesty will be remembered, and held in honour by
posterity. In a period of peculiar and unprecedented
political convulsion, the virtues of his late Majesty—his
piety—his temperance, and his fidelity to his word—his
• attachments were the theme of every tongue. The exam-
ple of his Court was a bright precedent to his people. and
was a principal means of producing that moral and de-
corona system, which, in general, pervades the superior
ranks of society, and uhicb has beets fen through every
order of the nation."
Nearly a hundred casks of contraband spiOts
were s.tizeil on Thursday night near Rottiagdean by this
