"In the beginning of May, a steam-boat for conveying passengers ascends the Thames in the morning from Queenhithe to Richmond, and returns the same day; and so she proceeds to and fro until the autumn.
The Aits, or Osier Islands, are picturesque interspersions on the Thames. Its banks are studded with neat cottages, or elegant villas crown the gentle heights; the lawns come sweeping down like carpets of green velvet, to the edge of its soft-flowing waters, and the grace of the scenery improves till we are borne into the full bosom of its beauty - the village of Richmond, or as it was anciently called, Sheen. On coming within sight of this, the most delightful scene in our sea-girt isle, the band on board the steam-boat plays 'the lass of Richmond-hill,' while the vessel glides on the translucent water, till she curves to the bridge-foot, and the passengers disembark. Ascending the stone stairs to the street, a short walk through the village brings us to the top of the far-famed hill, from whence there is a sudden sight of one of the loveliest views in the world. Here, unless an overflowing purse can command the preference of the 'Star and Garter,' we enter the pleasanct and comfortable 'Roebuck' inn, which has nothing to recommend it but civil treatment and domestic conveniences. ...
To the over-wearied inhabitants of the metropolis, the trip to Richmond is covetable. The lively French, philosophic German, the elegant Italian, the lofty Spaniard, and the Cossack of the Don, pronounce the prospect from the hill the most enchanting in Europe.
There was no itinerary of Richmond until Dr. John Evans, during a visit in 1824, hastily threw some memoranda into a neat little volume, illustrated by a few etchings, under the title of 'Richmond and its Vicinity'."

SURREY - April 30th
"Two persons have been apprehended on a charge of breaking into the parish church of Kew, and stealing therefrom an iron chest, containing the parish registers. The robbery took place on the 22nd Feb. 184[5], when the church-door lock was picked, and the chest in which they were was carried away. Letters had been received, offering, for a handsome reward, to restore the parish registers and deeds uninjured, but no notice was taken of them. Amongst the documents stolen were the certificates of the marriages of William IV., and of the Duke of Kent.
The matter had been long since given up when information was received by the police which led to the apprehension of John STANDEN, a hawker or costermonger, as the thief, and George TI[L]BEY of Lissongrove, as the receiver, and they were committed to Kingston gaol."
