Arrived here, Sir Watkin Lewes, Dr. Garthshorc, Mr. Richards, Mr. Whittart, Mrs. Oliver, Miss James, &c. Mr. William JoirdSj of this town, is appointed Captain and Adjutant of the West Glamorgan 1 9 regunent of volunteers, -commanded by Colonel Llewelyn. Saturday last, the Prince of Wales's fusileers 'le commanded by Major Vau-ghan; and therSwansea. volunteer cavalry, commanded by Captain Hughes, were inspected by-Col. Sladden; and deservedly ob- tained very flattering compliments on their military; appearance and hig'n stat(j of discipline. The Mcrthyr volullteers were inspected by the. Colonel on Monday, and,! pronounced, we are .in- formed, inferior to none in the kingdom. After the inspection, the officers treated the men, with an excellent dinner. Wednesday last, the fifth: battalion of Carmar- thenshire volunteers, oa permanent duty at Car- marthen, were inspected by the Right Hon.; 3 Dyncvor, the justly esteemed- Lord Lieutenant of the county, and received the gratifying tribute of his Lordship's Warmest approbation. Tuesday the iirst regiment of Herefotdshire vo- lunteers, commanded by Col. Matthews, and two of the Troops of yeomanry cavalry commanded by Major Sir G. Cornewall, were inspected by Briga- dier General Bingham, who expressed himself high- ly pleased with their appearance"and discipline. Last Sunday, Col. Williams and the oiticers of the Brecon volunteers tin permanent duty in Here- ford, dined with Col/Matthews, and the oflicers of the nrstHerctbrdshire regiment of volunteers, at the New Inn. The evening was spent with the ut- moat conviviality and good humour; and the offi- cers of the Herefordshire are to return the compli- ment on Sunday next. The Montgomeryshire yeomanry cavalry return- ed home on Thursday, from permanent duty at Wrexham; the troops dined with Sir W. W. Wynn, at Wynnstay, on Wednesday] on their march to. Oswestry. Colonel De Lhoste, late Inspecting Field Officer for Merionethshire and Montgomeryshire, is ap- pointed a Brigadier-General. By the last ships from India, letters have been received from two enterprising young 'officers, whose friends' reside in this town, 'containing several particulars of the Mahratta war, of whicii the public are already in ^possession of the officra-1 details. There are two circumstances, however, well worthy of notice, as they redound much to the honour of the officers alluded: -the one, a lieutenant of grenadiers,1 after assisting in the Stohiaiiig of a very strong fort called Bardbatty, iii the vicinity of Ca.lt.tck, accompanied his regiment up the river Mahanuddy to take possession of a pass about 80 utiles distant, which service was effected after a few days.excessive, lital-eiiinf" notwithstanding the fatigue of .whicii, and the in- tervention of other .military duties, the lieutenant1 surveyed the eountty.^a part, of India but very im- perfectly known;) along the whole line of inarch, and 14 miles beyond, a copy of which was trans- mitted to Marquis WeII.esley, who was so much pleased with his assiduity,, that he appointed him to survey the whole province ofCattack, with a hand- some annual salary.—-The other officer has obtained great credit for his gallant conduct in. a'very criti- cal situation: having only 63 sepoys under his command, lie was attacked by several hundreds of the enemy, both cavalry and infantry, against .whomhe bravely defended himself lor two days, when he was relieved by the arrival of a strong re- inforcement. The ltev. Edward Edwards, Curate of Gyfylling, near Ruthin, is appointed Domestic Chaplain to tfyp Earl of Belmore. The Rev. John Francis Seymour St. John, suc- ceeds to the prebendal stall in Worcester Cathe- dral, in the room of the Rev. Dr. James, deceased. A tradesman of this town, on reading an adver- tisement of a new boring machine, exclaimed, I am sure my will bore much better than any machine that can be invented." A curious discovery was made in this town yes- terday: a sailor belonging to a vessel trading to this port married a young girl a few months since, and settled here: shortly after, his professional duty calling him away,,he was absent about three months, when on his return yesterday, he found,- 't-o :lii>f-great surprise, -that 1liis 'faithless rttrbc&d last week taken to herself another husband. The in- jured and enraged tar, after some reproaches, turn- ed them both into the street, where the iovingpair had to encounter the execrations of a great number of persons which the novelty of the circumstance had drawn, to the spot. Last week, a dispute arose in Bristol, between an English gentleman whose name is Buck, and a. Welshman, concerning the curiosities of Wales: the former asserted, (though he had never been in Wales) that there was nothing cvrious to be seen throughout the Principality: the Welshman main- tained the contrary, enumerating several things which he had seen, and which had been acknow- ledged by others to be worthy of observation. At length the Englishman pettishly asked his antago- nist, whether there were any Goats in Wales? to which the latter answered in the affirmative, add-' ing, "and many curious Bucks too,7; which set the company in a roar of laughter, and by silencing his opponent, put an end to the altercation. Thomas Clements, who was employed in the White Rock copper works, near this town, was un- fortunately killed this week by a cog catching his arm and drawing him under the stamp, which shat- tcred his head to pieces in a moment. The return of the Earl and Countess of Oxford to their native country, after two years tour upon the continent, and several very narrow escapes of being taken by the French, has been celebrated in a manner the most gratifying to their feelings.—As soon as it was known that the family were all safe Rrrived at Eywood, the tenants in different parts of the estates met and 'dined together, and with a laudable desire to make the labouring people par- takers of their joy, sheep were roasted whole, beer given away, and bonfires made in every village. In return for this handsome reception, the tenants were all invited to meet their noble landlord and his family yesterday se'nnight, at Brampton-Bryan. The Earl and Countess, with their four lovely chil- dren, left Eýwooù early in the morning, accompa- nied by the tenants in the neighbourhood of King- ton, Stanton, and Presteign; as they proceeded by the Broad. Heath, 'and along Combe's Valley, they passed.0 JSinsham (the seat^o^tfte^ountess Dowager of Oxford) the air resounded with huzza?. At Lingen all the tenants of Beguiidy, Leintwar- dine, Wigmore, Byton, and Bramptoh-Bryan, met them in a body, and a sight more gratifying can hardly lie imagined, above four hundred" respect- able ten ints on horseback, accompanying their land- lord with every testimony of joy and satisfaction. At Brampton-Bryan the concourse of people was 0 immense, the horses were taken oflj and his Lord- ship's carriage was djra\yn by the people to the old hall, amidst the loudest acclamations of joy. An excellent dinner was provided for five hundred per- sons, and all admirably Well arranged; every room was full, and the Larl and Countess, with all their children, sat down with the company. Nothing could equal .the festivity of this scene—delight was in every countenance-—plenty and true old English hospitality prevailed at every table; the labouring people were not neglected; a waggon load of cider and.beer, bread and meat, was sent to them in the park. The pleasure of the tenants in seeing the children, who were carried -round to them in every room by their parents, after dinner, was expressed by their healths, one by one, with'three times three. The day was spent with songs and toasts, expres- sive of the real happiness which every one felt at the joyful retufn.-Lady" Oxford retired with the children to the rectory, where they remained all night, and no dg,ubt highly gratified with the ho- nest and hearty congratulations she had received from the company, with whom she conversed in the most engaging manner, telling them of all the dif- c ficulties and dangers she had escaped with her little .darlings, and assuring them that she was now come to renlall1 among them. His lordship staid with his tenants, pushing about the old strong beer, ci- der, and perry, till a late hour: he thanked them re- peatedly lor the honour they had done him, and told them that in his late tour he had seen no country that could be compared with his own. As to any men of_ the description he had the happiness of seeing then before him, his lordship'said, he be- lieved they "were not to be found in any place out of. England, certainly in none that he had visited, and if the enemy ever effected a landing, nothing would surprise them more than the warm reception he_ was sure they would meet with from men in brown coats and frocks; His lordship's address wasreceivedwith the loudest applause. The fa- mous old song, 'I'was in the land of cider, at a place called Bramptor^Bryan, was suhg in full chorus- the evening was spent with the utmost cordiality, and all the -houses in Brampton-Bryan and the neighbourhood "were illuminated, which had a beau- tiful effect among the trees. At twelve o'clock the company began to disperse, not a little overcome with the joy and festivity of such a happy day. Lord Sheffield, as president of the board of Agri- culture, is endeavouring, by letters circular through the several pounties, to obtain a correct return of the wheat crops, that the Board, if called upon, may make an accurate report thereof to Parliament the ensuing sessions. At Liverpool quarter sessions, last week, .Win. Gaskell 'was sentenced to a year's imprisonment for exposing himself in an indecent manner in one" of the public streets.—An example or two of this kind at some of our fashionable catering-places is much to be desired, female delicacy being but too frequently shocked by similar offences. Atthelast.sessions for Dorsetshire, Joseph Rud- len, late servant to Alex, C unningham, Esq: was convicted, on an indictment preferred against him by his master,, upon the statute 39 G. III. c, 85. This statute has wisely made it felony for a -Servant to secret from and defraud hU m isterof any goods, money, or other valuable effects, which he =>^11 rc- ceive or take into his custody and possession, on his master's account. The prisoner had been en trusted by his master with the care of a fine stallion, which wag sent from town, to town to cover, at the price of lk (is., and the prisoner had suttered the horse to cover .100 mares of farmers in the neigh- bourhood at a reduced price of 5s. eirh', and liad defrauded his master of the money. Much praise is due to Mr; Qunnmgham, who brought forward the prosecution more lor the sake of public justice and example than for puuisnment; and-we think it may not be amiss to riutice this in our paper as a caution to all servants how they abuse the confi-1 dence placed in them by their masters, and to others who may be concerned with them in such fraudulent transactions for by this statute, not only the servants Committing the act, but all others who shall in any manner aid, abet, or advise, &c. are guilty of felony, and may be transported for fourteen years. A New Speculation:—An Irish paper, of Saturdav last, states, that Neal Kelly, found guilty-at Kil- mainham sessions, of stabbing a man on speculation, whom he conceived had a murderous intention against himself, was sentenced to twelve months imprisonment.-—^The same paper adds, that Law- rence Magrath, convicted of an assault on Richard Albert, of Booterstown, was sentenced to impri- sonment for three months. The aggravating cir- cumstances attending this outrage, "consisted in having stolen the prosecutor's potatoes, extracted the brains from a favourite pig, and cruelly mur- dered 15 of his turkies, thereby not having in con- templation:, the rational pleasures of temperance and wholesome food, bad wickedly and wantonlv demolished the raw materials of many good din"- ners.. 1'he ladies of Chilicothe. (America") celebrated .the 4th of July iu a manner, honourable to their patriotism. Among the toasts drank by them were the following:- The Rights of Woman, Innocence, Modesty, and Pru- dence; may she rest satisfied .with these, without investigat- ing any others. ..Modt'sty, may the Men respect It, that it may be held in estimation by the Women. Matrimony,. venerable for its origin and antiquity, and eminently usefiri in preserving morality and true liberty. TheAffn-ned Ladies^ may the domestic virtues engage J their attention. The Young Ladies, may those of this class, between fif- teenand fifty, be shortly struck off from the list of single girls. ■_ Old Bachelors, may Jove seize and punish them for their sacrifice of time, with as much happmess as they are able to bear, in the lawful possession of what they are pleased to call the angels of the world." A most excellent cement has been prepared late- ly, by the French chemists, from common cheese. The method is this ;—cut tne cheese in pieces, and boil it in water, striking.it with a spoon until it be reduced to a glutinous state. Then throw off the remaining water not evaporated,. and pour cold water upon the substance. Let it then be pressed or kneaded, and renew the change of the water several times. Pound the mass afterwards upon a stone-Or in a mortar, In two days the cement will be fit for use, will be wholly insoluble in water, and may be employed on wood, marble, &c. and the union-of the fractured parts will be so perfect, as to render it very difficult to discover the intersection; Prevention of Smut" in Wheat.—A most respect- able, and judicious farmer asserts, that if wheat be dfessed in the following manner, it will not be infected with Brand or Smut on any land, or in any season i^—begin to save the chamber-lye of the family about'three months before seed-time and about ten days before seed-time, run as much yg h common lye from wood ashes as will be sufficient, with the other; for the whole of your seed; after you have gotten your quantity, let the latter be run through lresh ashes several times, as it can- net be too strong. Then procure two common- sizea wfitetnng Keei«i9 >u»t%-vwoW OI._R, r,lt ~hout half a bushel of seed into a keeler at a time, stir it well, and-skim all the light corn or seeds that rise to the surface, then-empty the remainder, with the hquor, into the skep, which is placed over the other keeler, and while that is draining, steep and Skim ij,th^first keeler, and so on alter- nately. If there is an opportunity, a brick floor is preierable to lay the wheat on when it is pro- perly dramed; in doing which, sprinkfe one pound of salt upon one bushel of wheat, and one bushel of linie irgsh from the kiln upon two combs of wheat. At Landovery fair, on Wednesday last, there was a great, shew -of cittle; but few were sold and those at reduced prices. At WeyhiH fair, last week, that ancient and wonderful annual-mart of English produce, the shew of hops-^was very considerable, and of most excellent quality/though perhaps not so great as was generally expected very line Farnhams, and j choice country growths met with a rapid sale on Thursday, after the market began; and towards the evening tiie prices rather advanced. Farnham hops sold from 71. to 71. 10s.; and others of known goodness fetched 71. Fine Kentish sold from 41. to 5-}-; inferior, as low as 31. 10s.; but the rarahatn "a-iid" like growths stood highest in estimation.—The quantity of leather was small; tanned calves skins, weighing from 50lb. to 60lb. per dozen, sold from 2s. 7fd. to 2s. 9d. per lb.; and hides, from 22d. to 2s. per lb.—The;e was a large quantity- of cheese," which experienced a heavy sate, and many tons were left unsold: new -sold at: from 50s. to 54s.; best red, 60s. to 68s. inferior, lower. Old cheese, 84s. to 90s. and but little sold.The previous shew of sheep, at Appleshaw, was, very large, and the sale brisk, at advanced prices.—Lambs, from 15s. and 20s. to 35s.—Dorsetshire ewes, 'from to 35s. and, some as high as 4Qs; T At Ross fair, on.Thursday, there was but an in- different shew of either cattle, horses, or slieep; and but few buyers attending, the sale of each was extremely dull.
