This Chariot was at first designed for the Prin-

cess of WALES, but being only suitable for state

occasions, it has been appropriated for Lord

JERSRY, Master of the Horse.

His ROYAL HIGHNESS'S taste has been very
<
lb

</

much displayed in the beauty of the ornaments,
<
lb

</

and the ingenious invention in the construction
<
lb

</

of the pedestals, which inclose the part of the
<
lb

</

hind springs that has hitherto been deemed un-

Lord SPENCER's endeavour to account for the

</

Toalon fleet, after their destruction had been

15 years we have nearly built a new ship, and

titles! His Lordship's other supposition, that

these ships were only damaged, and have been

says, "ten of the enemy's ships of the line

be paid partly by the interference of his MA-
