THE ISLE OF WIGHT PERVERT TO THE Cinuacu OF liomE.—Mr. John Simeon is the eldest son of Sir Richard Simeon, Bart., the first representative of the island in the Reformed Parliament—a fine old English gentleman, possessing large estates, and deservingly beloved by his numerous tenantry and domestics; a Liberal in politics, a steady supporter of the Protestant Church, and a true friend to the farmer, he is what a landlord ought to be. There is no improvement in the breed or feed of stock that he does not try, no new manure or seed introduced that he does not test, no improvement in agricultural instruments and machinery that is not proved at Swanston with a view to their being recommended to his tenants. His farm buildings are all on the most improved principle ; his farm-houses and cottages are all fit for human beings to inhabit (this, unfortunately, is rather a rare thing Co say, as there are numbers hardly fit to put swine in). It is, therefore, with great regret we hear of the false step. of his son. The. Rev. R. Sumner, on of the Bishop of Winchester, married Sir Richard Simeon's second daughter, whose untimely death we last week recorded, and whose funeral takes place to-morrow.
