Imperial parliament. HOUSE OF COMMONS, MONDAY, JUNE 6. TREATY OF PEACE. Lord CASTLEREAGH presented at the Bar the copy of the Treaty of Peace and Amity between their Britannic and most Christian Majesties, signed at Paris, on the 30th of May, 1814.— Mr. WILBERFORCE was sorry that in this treaty care had not been taken to stipulate, 011 tbe restoration of the French colonies, that no more of our fellow creatures should be consigned to destruction by the Slave Trade. At the same time, he had no doubt tbat strong and urgent motives induced his noble friend ( Castlereagh) to consent with his eyes open, to the continuance of so much robbery and murder for any period.— He expressed his hope that the colonies of Holland should not be given up without her con- senting to put an end to this traffic. To fix any period for the existence of the Slave Trade, would be giving a premium on the exportation of Slaves; to prevent which, Ministers should endeavour to procure our allies to consent, that only a very limited quantity of tonnage should be employed bv their subjects in this traffic. If some measure of this kind were not adopted, he might say, with Holy Writ, " Woe nnto the inhabitants of tbe earth, for the Devil hath come down in great wrath, knowing that he hath but a short time to reign." He also thought it unfortunate for the cause of humanity, tbat we had given up colonies on the coast of Africa. He trusted that the Emperor Alexander Would exert himself at the Congress which is to be held, in endeavouring to give happiness to the immense and unhappy regions of Africa. He hoped no other colonies would be given up without an agreement to abolish the African Slave Trade. Nothing in nature can justify the giving up colonies to be cultivated by the robbery and minder of millions of unfortunate being?.— Lord CASTLEREACH trusted tbat this treaty would be, at no very distant day, a great means of accomplishing the im- portant object which the lion, gentleman had so long in view. He trusted tbat Holland did not partake of that deep appre hension which his hon. friend must know existed in the inind of the French nation. On that subject he was willing to take it upon his own shoulders. He was acting under the strongest instructions from this Government to insist on all that hon, gentleman wou'd have required himself. But he found the country nol| prepaved to receive it ; and he had confided it to the patepial government of the monarch who, forthe bles- sing of Europe, now reigns there. As to tbe Emperor of Russia, he had authority to state, that the hon. gentleman's feelings 011 that subject could not he more ardent than his. — At the Congress the hon. gentleman would have the satis- faction of having the measure suppoited by- three of ihe greatest powers iu Europe.— The papers were ordered to lie on the table, aud to be taken into further consideration on Friday se'unight. CORN LAWS. BURRELL thought it would not be contended, that it was the duty of the House to take care of one particular interest in the coiintry, to the prejudice of another. There had been a great clamour 011 this subject. But when it was considered the many taxes borne by the landed interest over manufac- turing and shipping interests, that clamour, he believed, would cease. Among these were the tax 011 husbandry horses, and the indirect tax on malt, more severe in every shape than even the Property Tax. It was put on as a war tax ; and went to prevent the poor man from brewing bis beer, so that he could never taste it, unless in a public- house, much to the destruction of his morals. He hoped that tax would be done away.— Mr. PHILLIPS'was of opinion, the more he considered the subject, that tbe idea entertained of a free trade iu corn was injurious to the agricultural interest was totally void of foundation. He coutended, that both manufacturers anil com- merce were favourable to the agriculturist. There was, in his opinion, no occasion for any prohibitory measures in corn im- ( portation, since the Irish farmer could export to Great Britain cheaper than it conld come from any part of the Continent. Besides, if thai were not the case, what pros- pect could we have of bearing a competition with tbe foreign grower in foreign markets, when we could not bear one with him in onr own ? A free trade in corn would improve our cummerce, and an improvement in our commerce must bring to tbe country an increase of wealth. If they were to legislate to keep up the price of corn, by a parity of reason- ing they might as well legislate to keep up the price of manufactures on account of the stagnation of commerce pro- duced by the sudden Peace, in consequence of which com- merce had forsaken her old channels, and was seeking new. He would have 110 objection to the appointment of a Com- mittee, provided it were previously agreed that no measure should he adopted on the report of it during the present session— Mr. HUSKISSON was of opinion, there would be no great importation of foreign com till next year, for which reason lie did nut think it very material whether anv measure should he adopted during the present session.— Sir W. CuiiTts was favourable to the proposition of the Chancellor of the Exchequer, because it would have the effect of tranquillizing the apprehensions of the public.— Mr. CANNING did not him- self apprehend any material danger as likely to result from the adopting of the measure before the House. The opinion of thc public had however been expressed upon it 111 strong terms; and he thought that opinou should be attended to. The table of Ihe Hjtise was covered with Petitions, signed by hundreds of thousands of persons. Those persons would no way else be satisfied but by a further enquiry taking place. For this reason he was in favour of the proposition of the Chancellor of the Exchequer. He did not however consider the motion as going far enough : as Ihe motion now stood, the principle of the measure was assumed as good, nnd only the detail ivas referred to the Committee: He wished the whole subject should be referred.— Mr. BARING was in- rlliferent whether a Committee was appointed cr not; all lie wanterl was to get rid of the measure during the present session.—. The question being loudly called for, a division took place, when the numbers were— for the motion 173— against il 67— majority for tbe Committee 106.— Oil the order of the day being read, for taking iuto farther consideration tbe Re- port of the Committee on the Corn N011 - importation bill, Mr. VANSITTART moved that it should be taken into further coll- sideration oh this day three weeks; to which Gen. GASCOIGNE moved, as an amendment, that it should be taken iuto further consideration on this day six months.— Tile House again divided, for the motion of Mr. Vansittart, 106— for the amendment 116— majoiity against the Report 10.— The bill is consequently thrown out; at least, till next session.

WEDNESDAY, JUNE 8. The Paris Papers of Saturday last, are scarcely worth the trouble of translating. That city, which, the until recently, excited so much interest, by the restless- "" ' ness, ambition, ferocity, and ponderous pageantry of the Government, presents now little to excite curiosity. The inhabitants seem to have sunk into an extraordi- nary degree of torpor; and we understand the same symptom is perceptible in every part of France. The nation is exhausted; and, like individuals who have committed great excesses or made overstrained exer- tions, has sunk into a lethargic repose. However, to the few persons who have pieserved clear intellects and unadulterated feelings, the King, we understand, has rendered himself peculiarly agreeable. He is more — 5th, 27th, 28th, 40lh, 44th ( 2d batt.), 57th light infantry, 57th, 60th, ( 5th batt. rifle); 78th ( 2.1 b'itt.) 80th, 88th, and artillery— amounting, in the whole, lo about 8,000 men, under Hie command of Generals Kempt, Ross, and Robinson, Viscount Keith super- intended their embarkation himself. His flag was flying in the Pedargus sloop, lying at Bourdeaux. Sir H. Neale was also in the Garonne. The Queen Charlotte and Boyne were in Basque Roads, The second division of the array, which would comprise 600 cayalry, was to commence embarking ou the Istof June. This division also, it was expected, would consist of 8000 men.— They were at Bourdeaux, all in readiness to embark.—• Nearly 1,800 recruits, volunteers, and recovered con- valescents, for the regiments now on their passage to North America, will embark at Portsmouth iu a few days, direct for Long Island or Rhode Island, which are lo be taken immediate possession of as depots, from whence expeditions will proceed against all the principal seaports, for the purpose of destroying the American merchant shipping. A Bill is now before the House of Commons, which has been read a second time and passed a Committee, intituled, " A Bill for the belter Relief and Settlement of the Poor," which will most materially affect all property situate in manufacturing towns aiid districts, as well as large towns and cities; as it enacts, that every person who has been or shall be resident in any parish for 7 years, without having been chargeable, shall become a parishioner in such parish. We under- stand, petitions are forwarding to both Houses against its being passed into a law. This morning the Contractors for the new Loan waited upon Lord Liverpool and Ihe Chancellor ofthe Exchequer, when they were informed that 24 millions would be wanted for England, and three millions for Ireland. The Loan is to lie taken at £ 80 Reduced and £ 30 Navy 5 per Cenl. The bidding to be in Consols. Discount for payment 4 per cent. First payment on the 16th inst. and the last in February. The Ex- chequer Debt is to be diminished six millions. The warrants for disembodying the Militia have been issued; and the other military reductions will very shortly take place. A Circular lias been issued from the War Office, ordering that, from the 24th inst. only one Serjeant to every two companies of the Local Militia, exclusive of the serjeant major, shall receive full pay.

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER^ moved for a Select j anxious to give Ihe French a good system of laws than ' ' * " " "" ' ' they are to receive it; and his long sojourn in this country has probably convinced him, that tio Govern- ment is so secure as that which is guarded by liberal institutions. The French papers state that the Emperor of Russia has granted ti year's exemption from duty to the different corps of his guard which were at Paris. That city, wishing lo testify to Gen. Sachen their grateful acknowledgments for the gootl order which uniformly prevailed in the capital during the time that his Excellency was charged with the government of it, has presented to htm a case containing a sword with a gold hilt set with diamonds, made at Versailles 5 a carbine, and a brace of pistols, inlaid with gold. On Saturday the Clinker, Captain Tullidge, arrived at Portsmouth, from Bourdeaux, whence she sailed on Saturday se'nnight. By her we learn, that the first division of the British army intended lor America, had embarked on board the ships of war in the Garonne, and was to sail ou Tuesday last. The regiments were Committee to take into consideration the Petitions for aud against the Corn Laws; intending the Committee should be limited lo time, to enable them to bring in a measure, for the relief of the agriculturists, if it should be thought ne- cessary, as be supposed it would. — Mr. W. SMITH thought tbat no determination of the Committee would be properly satisfactory at. the present moment. He should therefore vote for postponing the consideration ot the measure till another session,— M1. ROSE had a decided aversion to the motion of his right hon. friend ; for he was convinced, tbat at present no labours of the Committee would be sitisfuctory to the country. He was certain tbat tbeie was not one of the propositions of the last Committee but would, if adopted, have a tendency to raise the price of corn. — Mr. LONG WELLESLEY gave his decided support to the motion of the right hon. Gentleman, because he thought that the grower of corn required some prompt relief.— Mr. J, P. GRANT said, be would vote for the Committee, in hopes that it would be able 10 convince the people that this measure tended directly to lower the price of bread, and 10 make the supply of corn more constant and regular. Without that conviction in the people, uo measure of their's would be effectual.— Sir C. THURSDAY, JUNE 9. [ For an account of the Arrival of the Emperor of Russia and King of Prussia, see lasi page,~\ Almost all other business and employment, save that of following the movements of our Illustrious Visitors and their Generals seem to he adjourned. The passage through Piccadilly, where Pulteney Hotel stands, " is scarcely practicable. Crowds choak up the foot- path, and coaches tbe carriage way. When the Emperor of Russia goes out, thousands follow him, rending the air with their acclamations: when he returns, he is hailed in the same manner. His Imperial Majesty appears highly delighted with his reception. He is tall and well made, with an open, handsome countenance. The up- per part of his head is rather bald. Nor is less attention paid to the King of Prussia, and Clarence- bouse is beset almost as much as the Pultency Hotel. Ilis Majesty is about the same height as the Emperor of Russia, but with a countenance serious, and, since the death of his beautiful aud amiable Queen, rather melancholy. The Emperor and the King of Prussia, accustomed to the hardships of the tented field, decline using the magnificent bods prepared for them— The former sleeps upon a slraw palliasse. The King of Prussia ordered al! ihe fine satinwood furniture lo be removed out of his bed- room, and a plain table and glass, with oue common chair, to be subs'. ituted. When the bed was removed, his Majesty's camp equipage was brought in, from whence were taken a leathern mattress and bolster; these were placed upon a common coach. This morning, about half- past ten, his Imperial Majesty left the Pulteney Hotel, with his sister, the Grand Duchess, and proceeded in one of the Regent's car- riages, a barouche, to see St. Paul's. Another carriage followed, with the Earl of Yarmouth, and three oilier noblemen in it. The crowd followed the coaches, huzzaing, and crying out " Alexander for ever I" His Imperial Majesty pulled off his hat, and bowed several times. At liie great gate of the Cathedral his Imperial Majesty was received by the Bishops of London and Hereford in their episcopal robes. The Emperor of Russia and King of Prussia are expected to Set off for Oxford to- morrow. It is s.'. id that these Illustrious Personages do not intend to prolong their stay in this metropolis beyond ten days. The Emperor Alexander proposes to leave London by the Northern road, and go to Edinburgh. His Imperial Majesty will thus have an opportunity, from the distance between the English and Scottish capitals, of seeing a groat part of the interior of the kingdom, lu that case he will embark for St. Peters- burgh at Leith, whither be is to be accompanied from town by the Prince Regent. It is now 117 years since we were honoured with a visit by a Russian Emperor. Peter, the Great Czar, arrived in London 011 tiie I Ith January, 1697. Parties of foreign Officers were promenading Ihe public streets yesterday, and were every where greeted by the populace yvilli tumults of applause. Yesterday a Court of Common Council was held nt Guildhall, which was numerously attended. The Court unanimously agreed to Addresses to the Emperor of Russia and King of Prussia, 011 their arrival iu this country ; and the Sheriffs, attended by the Remem- brancer, were desired to wait upon their Majesties to know their Royal Pleasure when the Court should attend tliein with the same. The Court, in further testimony of the high sense lliey entertained of the honour conferred 011 the Metropolis by those illustrious Vis, tors, referred it fo a Committee who prepared the Addresses, to consider and report what other steps may be necessary for tiie Corporation to take thereon. Swords of 200 guineas value were unanimously voted to Field- Marshal Prince Schwartzenberg, Field- Marshal Blnclier, Field- Marshal Count Barclay de Tolli, and the Hettnian Count Platoff; and the Lord Mayor was requested to provide the same. The intemperate proceedings of the Catholic Board in Ireland, have at last rendered necessary the inter- ference of Government, aud that factious assembly has been put down by a Proclamation issued by the Lord Lieutenant in Council. LONDON. THURSDAY, JUNE 9. COURT OF KING'S BENCH. GUILDHALL. FRAUD ON THE STOCK EXCHANGE. Yesterday tlie important trial of Lord Cochrane, Hon. Cochrane Johnstone, Charles De Bereoger, ( alias JDe Botirg), and several other persons, for a conspiracy • ti, ( tdrain! the Slock Exchange, by circulating false reports of the death of Bonaparte and the conclusion of peace, on Ihe 21st of February last, came on before Lord Ellenborough and a special Jury. Mr. Gurney, Mr Holland, and Mr. Adolphus, were Counsel for the prosecution ; and Mr. Serjeant Best, Mr. Parke, Mr. Topping, Mr Scarlett, Mr. Brougham, Mr. Richardson, Mr. Alley, Mr. Williams, and Mr. Lawcs, were Counsel for'the defendants. Mr. Gurney stated the case on the part of the prosecution with a great deal of perspicuity, which occupied two hours; and he expressed the ut- nicst confidence in being able to convict every one of the defendants. The principal witness was Mr. Fearn, a stockbroker ; who stated, that on the evening of the 19lh, Lord Cochrane's balance, in Omnium, was 130,000/. M r '' ohnstone had on the sameday a balance of 120,000/. liis Consols 100.000/.; Mr. Butt's Omnium on the same day was 154,000/. and his Consols 168,000/.; on the morning of Ihe 21st, the witness sold them all. The case for the prosecution was closed about 11 at night; after which the Counsel severally addressed tbe Jury on behalf of the defendants , and, al half- past three in the morning, the Court adjourned till next day. This morning, at ten, the trial was resumed; and the evidence for the defendants was gone through, a material point of which was, an attempt to prove an alibi on the part of De Berenger. Lord Elletiborough then summed up the evidence. The firs! uuestion for consideration, he said, was, as to the identity of De Berenger, and npon this part of the case, he remarked, that he had on no former occasion witnessed, in aCotirt of Justice, evidence more positively conclusive. He had been traced from place to place in the most clear and satisfactory manner, from Dover to the mansion of Lord Cochrane ; and the whole of the testimony on that score had been so dove- tailed lo the last, that it was utterly impossible to enterlain a doubt of the charge that De Berenger was the man who had firs! been seen at Dover, and was Ihe individual who liad been made instrumental in etfecling that fraud by which such serious mischief had been done.— In order, however, that the whole l'acls might be fresh in the memorv of the Jury, his Lordship read his notes of the evidence given by all the witnesses bearing oil this head of Ihe case. Upon referring to the affidavit of Lord Cochrane, his Lordship particularly adverted to that pnrt in which his Lordship slate. l lhat the name signed to the nolo of De Berenger was so near the bottom, that he could not read it: anil upon comparing this assertion wilh the evidence of his servant, who deposed, th- t Mr. De Berenger had added some line to the note after lie had returned from Cumberland- street, it was impossible to withhold an expression of surprise ; as it must appear, either lhat De Berenger had not signed his name to the first note, or if he had signed it, his signature must have been very far from the bottom, if. was also singular lhat Lord Cochrane should have dined to have given countenance to De Berenger in appearing in the dress of an Aide- de- Camp— a dress, of the idenUly of which there could he no possible doubt. This dress Lord Cochrane must have seen, as De Be render stripped it olF, for the purpose of putting on that ciiat which Lord Cochrane had lent him ; and if he did appear in that dress tinder such circumstances, it was for the Jury lo say, whether Lord Cochrane was not, afler all which had transpired, an accomplice in the nefarious transaction in which De Berenger had taken so conspicuous a part. The next point to which the Jury should direct their attention was, the Northflect part of the plot. Upon this subject his Lordship detailed the. evidence, and left it for the Jury lo say, whether there was not a community of purpose between Sandom, Lite, M'Rae, and Holloway, and Ihe other defendants— an inference which he considered, from all that occurred, fairly deducible. His Lordship then alluded to the motives which might operate as an inducement for projecting this scheme, and referred to the evidence which had been brought forward of the immense stock transactions which had been carrying on, oil the part of Lord Cochrane, Mr. Cochrane Johnstone, Mr. Butt, and Mr. Holloway, from which his Lordship remarked, that there was every inducement for the fraud which had been committed, and this inducement did not alone arise from a view to gain, but from an anxiety to get well rid of the accumulation of stock which thcse^ Gentlemen possessed ; and by which, if the Funds fell, their ruin would have been inevitable; and lhat the Funds, from their unusual elevation, would fall, there seemed every reason to apprehend. His Lordship finally referred lo the notes found in De Berenger's box! and recited the testimony which went to trace the notes to the hands of Lord Cochrane, Mr. Cochrane Johnstone, and Mr. Bull; after which he detailed Ihe evidence which had been given on the pail of the defendants. His Lordship concluded hy observing that this was the evidence, and without further comment left the Jury to form their own judgment, as lo whether all the defendants, or any of fhem, were guilty of Ihe crime imputed to them. The Jury retired, and afler being absent for two hours aud a half, tliey relumed with a verdict of & nil It/ against all the defendants. that great ohjcct is to he ascribed, under the blessing of Divine Providence, to the resolution, firmness, and per- severance of the magnanimous, people Afthese realms " It is a most gratifying reflection, lhat the happy Con- stitution of our country has remained - unimpaired hv that desolating spirit of innovation, which aUfone time threat- ened the subversion of alt establishments; thai its energies have fostered and invigorated the exertions and resources of ihe nation ; and that, ultimately, afle. e fie cling our own security, the general sense of ils practical excellence has marked it out as a model by which. other nations'conslruct their fabric of civil order aud infernal polity. " In concluding the Treaty with his Most Christian Majesty, by which the great Powers of Europe r. rc again united ill the relations of Peace, it has been my object, as it has been that of my Illustrious Allies, who have so mainly contributed to its accomplishment,- to provide, without the degradation of anv, for the security of all; and thus lo build Ihe stability of peace, not ou the temporary lassitude ofthe burthens and calamities of war, but on the permanent basis of general prosperity and independence." The London Gazelle of Saturday llie 14th of May, contains the following notification " His Royal High- ness the Prince Regent has been pleased in the name and on behalf of his Majesty, lo confer Ihe honour of Knighthood on William Adams, Esq. Oculist Extraor- dinary to his Royal Highness, on presenting the Official Report of the Directors of Green vich Hospital of the superior success of his new and improved modes of effecting the cure of the various species of cataract, and the Egyptian opthalmia." Auxiliary Bible Society .— Wednesday morning there was a most crowded and respectable assemblage of ladies and gentlemen, principally composed of the in- habitants of Kensington, Chelsea, Fulham, and Ham mersmith, for the laudable purpose of forming an Auxiliary Bible Society, to the British and Foreign Society. The meeting was holden in the King's Concert Room at the Opera House, which was filled to an overflow at an early hour. His Royal Highness the Duke of Sussex graciously condescended to take the Chair, by whom the purport of ihe meeting was slated, and ils benevolent objects afterwards eloquently pointed out by his Royal Highness, the Rev. J. Owen, Mr. Wilberforce, and several others, in very interesting, and impressive speeches. The various resolutions pro- posed, were unanimously received, and confirmed with the warmest and most gratifying tokens of approbation. FRIDAY, JUNE 10. A most alarming report was circulated yesterday, namelv, that the Duke of Wellington had been assas- sinated on his journey into Spain. The dreadful rumour agitated the public mind in Hie midst of their rejoicings, on the occasion for which that great Commander so materially contributed. It was not said where the la- mentable event had happened, but merely that the Duke of Wellington and two of his Aides- de- Camp had fallen by Ihe hands of assassins. The authority assigned for the rumour was a letter from Toulouse, dated the 20th, but there are other letters of the same date from Toulouse, which mentioned no such event; and a letter from Madrid of the 24th, another from Bour- deaux of the 3Ist, are equally silent respecting it. The story is totally disbelieved at the Government Offices, and we rejoice lo stale that there is no ground for placing the slightest confidence in the rumour. Corunna papers arrived yesterday to the 18th. From that quarter we were in the hahit of receiving interest- ing intelligence— such as every man, in every station, and in every country, found a gratification in perusing. For Englishmen it was peculiarly attractive. What sacrifices have we not made for lhat country. It was the scene of our most glorious atchievements. There too the foundation of the deliverance of Europe was laid. It was the cradle of her regenerated freedom. The example fired Russia lo imitation; inspired her generous Monarch with the resolution of checking the progress of a lawless conqueror ; and the victories of a Wellington excited that spirit of patriotism, which afterw ards blazed forth with so much lustre and eft'ect, both in Russia and Prussia. In proportion lo the in- terest which Spain was wont to excite, it now produces Only painful and disheartening sensations. The Paris papers of Tuesday last contain intelligence from Madrid of the 24th ult. Ferdinand hiis given orders lhat the convents and revenues, which had been seques- tered for the public service, should be restored to the monkish orders. It appears that the greatest disorders prevail in that unfortunate country, where the populace a Hacked in several places, and with indiscriminate fury, both the partisans of the Corles, aud the traitors who served Joseph. The Treaty of Peace has given the greatest satisfac- tion to the people of France. They view it as in ilie highest degree honourable lo the Allies and advantage- ous to Fiance. brought lo a happy termination. On Wednesday morn- ing they had a formal and special audience of the Prince Regent atCarlton- house, when they / nvested his Royal Highness with Ihe Older • f the Golden Flcece, being tbe first Engli- h Monarch who has received that dis- tinguished Order, and upon this occasion the usual oaths were- dispensed with, which were explained to the Prince Regent, w: o of course felt the distinguished honour. The Prince Regent h'eld a Court yesterday at Carte ton House, to which all the Royal Dukes, the Duchess of York, the Emperor of Russia, the King of Prussia, and the Mem- bers of liis family came in stale. There were also present, the Prince or Orange, the Prince of Mecklenburgh, Mar- shal Blucher, General De Yorck, and tbe other Warriors who have so eminently distinguished themselves on the Continent; likewise, the Duke of Richmond, Marquis Wellesley, the Cabinet Ministers, the gieat Officers of State, the Lord Mayor, Sheriffs, and Members of ibe Corporation of London, who presented Ihe Address to the Prince Regent ( a cofty of which is given in a preceding column . J About half- past two the shuuls of the populace announced the return of the King of Prussia to Carlcton House; and soon iifter the Emperor of Russia arrived. The former was dressed iu a suit of his country regimentals, the latter in an English uniform decorated with the Order ofthe Garter. They were both met at the doorof Cartetim House by the Regent, who was attired in a suit of blue and gold. The Monarchs retired to the Prince's closet, and were arrayed in splendid robes of purple velvet, and vesfed with Collars for the purpose of attending a chapter of the Order of the Garter. A procession was then formed bv Sir Isaac Heard lo the Chapter- room, consisting of the follow- ing Knights of the Order, viz. The Dukes of York, Kent,! Sussex, Cambridge, and Gloucester; Earl of Chatham, Ihe Marquis of Salisbury, Earl of Westmoreland, Earl Spencer, the Matquis Camden, the Duke of Rutland, the Earl of Hardwirke, the Duke of Beaufort, the Earls of Pembroke and Wiuchelsea, the Marquisses of St afford aud Hertford, the M arquis Wellesley, the Dukes of Richmond, Montrose, and Newcastle. Tl. e Knights were followed by all the Officers of the Order, viz. The Bishop of Winchester, Prelate; the Bishop of Salisbury, Chancellor ; Ihe Dcati of Windsor, Begister; Sir Isaac Heard, Gaiter Principal King of Arms ; aud Sir T. T. Tyrwhitt, Usher of the Black Rod. Then walked tbe Prince Regent, having on his r is: hi hand the Emperor of Russia; his train held up by Sir W. Keppel, the Groom in Waiting. The Emperor of Russia's train was held up by the Earl ofYarmouth, his Chamber- Iain. On their arriving in the Chapter- room, the Prince Regent took his seat in a Chair of Slate, under the Throne, at the head of the table, having on his right hand a Chair of State, in which his Imperial Russian Majesty was placed; and a vacant chair on his left hand, for the King of Prussia. —-' The Chancellor then read a new Statute, whereby, after complimenting the King cf Prussia upon the heroism, military skill, and personal intrepidity manifested by him during the late momentous aud arduous contest, his said Majesty was \ leclared elected a Knight of the Order of the Garter. His Majesty wa3 then introduced to the Chapter between the Dukes of York and Kent, preceded by Garter and Black Rod, and being conducted to tlie Prince, was 1 II HOC I ti ri mllll * lin C- oet. i> n ,1 4 K ft D IKUn nrl tko Plinnr nvested with t lie Garter aud I he Ribband, the Chancellor pronouncing the usual admonition. His Majesty then received the Accolade from the Prince Regent, and then from the Royal Knights and others, and was seated in the Chair of Slate provided for his reception Tbe Chancellor theu read a Statute, whereby the Resolution of the Prince Regent was expressed to commemorate within the Order the present brilliant epoch in Ibe history of nations; when, th rough tlie providential and signal interposition of the Al mighty Disposer of Events, the deliverance of the Con- tinent. of Europe from a system inimical to the ' repose of mankind liad b< en gloriously effected; and his Royal Highness, considering how eminently this happy state of affairs had been promoted by the Emperor of Austria, in the powerful co- operation of his arms towards Ihe common cause, and until its final triumph, had thought fil to dis- pense wilh certain Statutes of Ihe Order, and l o declare his Imperial and Royal Apostolic Majesty a Knight of the same. Another statute was then read, wherein, after many high encomiums on the distinguished merits and services of the Earl of Liverpool and Viscount Castlereagh, it was declared lhat they should also be added to the number of Kivghls of the Order. Their Lordships were then intro- duced between the Iwo junior Knights, ihe Dukes of Mon- trose and Newcastle, and invested in the usual manner. A Statute was then read, declaring that 110 further election of any subject, not being of Ihe Blood Royal, into the Order shall take place, until the vacancy ot a stall of a Knight, nut of Ihe Blood Royal, shall have happened, subsequently to the reduction of the number of Knights, not of the Blood Royal, to Ihe original number of 25, including llie Prince of Wales.— The procession then returned in the same order as tbey entered.

Mr. Bennett, and Mr. Bankes, the motion was agreed to. SATURDTTTJUNE II. The last Paris papers state that on Ihe evening of the 6th inst. the Deputies of Ihe Departments waited upon Louis XVIII with an address, which enumerates lhe advantages of the Constitution, and in a very compli- mentary manner attributes them to the King. It con- cludes by styling his Majesty Louis le Desire ( Louis the much wished for). The following is a translation of his Majesty's reply. I am deeply sensible of the sentiments expressed lo me by the Chamber of I he Deputies of Departments. In every thing you have said on the subject of Ifi'e constitutional charter, I see Hie pledge of that concurrence of wishes and intentions between the Chamber and myself, which must ensure Ihe happiness of France. The last words of your address touch me nearly. Many names have been given bv enthusiasm, but in lhat which the French people, who have always heed distinguished by love for their Kings, have decreed to me to- day, through you, and which I accept with all my heart, 1 see the expression of Hie sentiments which united them always lo Iheir King, and which consti- tuted my comfort during the time of my long adversity." This answer of his Majesty having been read in the sitting of the following day, one of the Deputies said : " Gentlemen, of all those among us, who were happy enough to hear llie noble and fine answer of the King tii our Address, there is doubtless not one, who was not deeply moved, and who will not always retain the precious recol- lection of it. But il must lie perpetuated, it must be trails, pitted lo our successors, that from age lo age such affect- ing words may be known and appreciated."' The Member then moved, that the answer be engraved on marble, lo be placed in Ihe most conspicuous part of the Hall of the Sittings. The registering of theanswer vvas decreed, and t lie proposition for the engraving was referred to a Committee. A Courtly tumour prevails, thai the King of Prussia is not unlikely to return to England, before the close of the summer, to pay his devoirs with more fervency to an illustrious and amiable female of tbe House of Bruns- wick, than the shortness of his present visit will pos- sibly admit of. Reports in the high circles now stale, that ihe Prin- cess of Wales is to he present with the other members of tho family, at the ball at White's, by an invitation from her Royal husband. In the House of Commons onThursi'ay, Mr. Methuen not seeing any intention of ameliorating Ihe condition of her Royal Highness the Princess of Wales, said he would, if no steps were previously taken, on Tuesday next, move lhat the letter of her Royal Highness the Princess of Wales to the Speaker, be taken into con- sideration. Sir Henry Wellesley will certainly offer himself a Candidate for the City of Westminster, should the proceedings in the House of Commons in consequence of the late trial, take the turn expected by that House. The other Interest will, it is said, propose Sir S. Romilly, or Mr. Brougham. Lord Walsingham lies dangerously ill, in consequence ofa severe paralytic affection. We may now pride ourselves that our Sovereign, in the person of the Prince Regent, possesses more honours than any Monarch in all the world. Ou his Royal Highness the Prince Regent retiring from the numerous and splendid Chapter of the Garter on Thurs- day, he gave an audience to the King of Prussia, when his Majesty was graciously pleased to invest his Royal Highness with the Order of the Golden Eagle, which is the principal Order ofthe Prussian Court. Yesterday a number of foreigners went to West- minster Hall to see the Judges open the different Courts of Law. A Colonel of Cossacks was among the crowd iu his green uniform. He spoke French, and Counsellors Russell and Adolphus conversed with him, explaining the etiquette usual on the first day of term. He appeared a polite sensible man. i wo young women, natives of Holland, dres- sed in the Balavian costume, attracted much attention They had faces which might vie with the fairest English ladies, and were on the whole very interesting. The foreigners in general were surprised at the number of law- yers seen in the hall, and they shrugged up their shoulders when they were informed that employment was found for the whole body. IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. HOUSE OF COMMONS, FRIDAY, JUNE 10. Several petitions were presented against the Coin Bill, which were referred to Ihe Committee. Mr. BROADHEAD said, that iu consequence of certain proceedings tbat had lately taken place in a court of law, in which two Members of this House were deeply implicated, the honour of the House required that some notice should be taken of them. He therefore gave notice, that on an early day he should submit a motion on the subject.— The ATTORNEY GENERAL thought there would be no difficulty : now fixing tbe day, only that it could not be earlier than A circular teller from the new French Director Ge- ) Tuesday next, as Ihe law allowed four days eitlierfor moving neral of Police promises, that in future the Police f5"' a new trial, or an arrest of judgment.

The humble, dutiful, and loyal Address of the Lord Mayor, Aldermen, and Commons of Ihe C ity of London, in Common Council assembled. " Mai/ it please your Royal Highness, " We liis Majesty's most dutiful and loyal subjects, the I. ord Mayor, Aldermen, and Commons of Ihe City of Lon- don, in Common. Council assembled, approach your Royal Highness with the most heartfelt conglal illations upon the signature of the Definitive Treaty of Peace between liis Majesty anil the Most Christian King. " We cannot, Royal Sir, upon Ibis occasion, but look back, with the lushest admiration, al the firmness, the wisdom, and the energy, which have been exercised by our beloved Country duiing this long and arduous struggle. Had not Europe persevered, the liberties of Europe might have been Inst— had not her valiant sons been foremost in victory both hy sea and land, it is too probable that Ihe glorious emulation exhibited hy her great Allies would have b- c o still dormant— had not her triumphant armies, under the immortal Wellington, co- operated with the brave inhabitants, in rescuing the Pininsula from the grasp of nil unprincipled invader, Germany and Holland might yet have groaned under Ihe iron despotism ofthe oppressor, and the efforts of Ihe magnanimous Alexander have been ineffectual lo relieve them. These astonishing energies we believe to have been called forth hy ( hat admirable Constitution of Government which Britons possess as the best inheritance derived from their fathers, and which, niih proud satisfaction, we observe, is consi- dorcd as affording the true basis of civil liberty by sur- rounding nations. " We must ever admire Ihe ardour and decision mani- fested by your Royal Highness in affording every possible assistance*!! a cause so sacred, which, under Divine Pro- vidence, has nol only been crowned with the most complete Success, but lias restored the blessings of Peace to so large a portion of the human race " We cannot doubt, from the spirit of concord with which the ncgocialions commenced, combined with the modera- tion and sound judgment so conspicuous in Ihe conduct of the Allies, but that the terms of Pence, reciprocally bene- ficial lo both countries, will afford a long continuance of thai amity which how. happily subsists between his Majesty and the Most Christian King. " Signed by order of the Court, " HENRY WootiTHOKPE." To which Address his Royal Highness was pleased to return the following Answer :— " 1 thank yon for yonr Address. " I receive wilh peculiar satisfaction your congratulations on the happy termination of the long aud arduous struggle i which we have been engaged; and I feel a pride in « •' mvlodsring, with you, how much tbe attainment of shall have none of those frightful features which it possessed during the late Government— that it shall he tolerant, protecting, peaceful, and discreet. j Extract of a letter from Paris, dated May 6 :— " The list of persons named by Ibe King in Ihe Chamber I of Peers, contains among olher names, those of the Arch- i bishop of Rheiins, ihe Bishop of Lsngres and Chalons; J the Dukes of Richelieu, Levis, Maille, Clermont Tonnerre, Colgny, Montmerency, Praslin, Hudoville, Luxembourg, !

All the French Marshals are included, Davoust excepted. They are named Members of the Chain ber of Peers only for their lives. Lord William Bcntiuck continued at Genoa on the 28th ult. ; at that date nothing decisive as to Ihe future fate of Genoa was known. The public entry of the Pope into Rome was to have taken place ou the 23d ult. Great preparations were making for Ihc reception of his Holiness. Cardinal Fcsch and Ihe mother of Bonaparte arrived there on the 14th. The Americans are now likely to feel the full weight of British vengeance ; and lliere every preparation is made for inilictiiig, with severity proportionate to the delay, the vengeauce which has so hr. ig been suspended over litem. Besides the expeditions from Bourdeaux, which will comprehend full 25,000 men, a fresh enler- prize is meditated from Bermuda, lor which settlement four regiments are now under orders from Gibraltar and Sicily. In addition lo the corps already anuounced in the papers as having been ord," red to America from the Duke of Wellington's army, we find that four brigades of artillery, with S'proper proportion of sappers and miners, are lo embark at Bourdeaux for that destination.

Extract of a letter from Petersburg!!, dated May 14 : " The Russian Senate has solemnly resolved lo bestow ou the Emperor Alexander tlie surname of The Blessing ( bringer of Blessings ) Three Senators, Prince Kurakin, formerly Ambassador at Paris, General Tormanzow, the conqueror of the Persians, and Count Soltecliow, arc to leave this city on llie 17, th, to bring this resolution to tiie Emperor." Although the Emperor of Austria could not make it convenient lo visit this country in company with the august sovereigns who' now honour London with their presence; yet he has sent his commands by Prince Metternicll and Count Mervelt, his ministers, expos- ing bis respect and esteem for his great ally, the Pmce Regent, by whose persevering council the war had been motion before Tuesday. He by no means suggested that it was probable that such a motion would be made. He was glad the notice of Ihe House had been called to the subject.— Mr. BROADHEAD then proposed Tuesday next for his motion, and gave notice lhat, on Tuesday he should move for a copy of the conviction.— The ATTORNEY GENERAL said, he should take care lhat the necessary documents should be ready to be produced. Mr. W WYNN moved lhat an account be presented of ! the land- tax assessed in each couuly in England and Wales. I — Ordered. I The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER brought up the report of Lord Hill's Annuity Bill.— Mr. W. WYNN re- gretted lhat liis Majesty's Ministers did not consent to the enlargement of the grant as suggested by him on a former night. He thought it the duty of the House to interfere in such a case, in order to prevent tlie possibility of Lord Hill's | heir, when a Member ofthe House of Peers, being depend- ant on the Ministers of Ihe day losuppoit his rank, the I present grant being wholly insufficient. He wished that the grant should be extended to £ 3,000 a year, which was granted to Lords Bodnev, St. Vincent, and Duncan.— The CHANCELLOR of Hie EXCHEQUER stated, that a distinction was observable iu the instances referred to by Hie Hon. Member. The Noble Lords alluded to had com- mands in chief. He ( the Chancellor of the Exchequer) was not satisfied from inquiries he had made, lhat circumstances of private fortune rendered any exception necessary in respect to I. ord Hill. He thought it wiser to adhere to established practice. Two thousand a- ycar only was granted to Lord Nelson, after the battle of the Nile, and the Duke of Wellington after the battle nf Talavera — Mr. W. WYNN moved as an amendment, lhat the report be re- committed. — Lord CASTLEREAGH said, he was sure it was the feeling uf the House that the course pursued should he liberal, but at Ihe same time not invidious. He deprecated establishing such a precedent, uiilessthe House saw its way most clearly through Ibe principle upon which Ihe augmentation was grounded.— Sir JOHN NICHOLL considered two thousand pounds quite insufficient to support the peerage at present, when £ 3000 was thought even too little thirty years ago. He suggested as a strong reason for extending the grant, that the heirs of Lord Hill would, bv their station, be debarred from those honourable professions in which opulence is acquired by industry aud talent.— Lord CLIVE supported the amendment.— Mr. WHITUREAD thought it would be invidious lo confine the extension of the grant to Lord Hill only, when there were many other pevsons to whom a similar course would be not only agreeable, but somewhat necessary. I11 the case of Lord Hill, the grant was made co- existent wilh the peerage, which was not the case of Lord Rodney, so thai £ 2000 now was much more valuable lhan ihe 31100 granted then.— Mr. WYNN ihen withdrew his amendment, and the original resululion was carried. In answer to a question from Mr WIHTBREAD, whether the abolition of Ihe Slave T rade was proposed to the late Government of France, the only article in the Treaty with tlie present Government of that country with w hich hew- as not satisfied, and which indeed pressed upon his heart; Lord CASTLEREAGH said, that the absolute and unqualified abolition of it was proposed lo the former as to the present Government of France. The present virtuous Sovereign of that country was most warmly disposed to concur in its final abolition; but in tlie late Government he found a general repugnancy lo consent to its abolition during the Negociations at Chatillon. s in the Commit ice of Supply, Mr VANSITTART staled the j sums already voted as Armv Extraordinaries, and said he I would propose a resolution lo vote four millions more to complete the, sum wanted ; which was as great as that of lust year; but six millions had siuce been granted to make uo the deficit of thai period A greater force than had ever t been kuo- 11 had been kept up six months 111 the present year, and it was still m cessary to have at our disposal a loan equal to ihe contingencies of the war with America He t lien 11 • npused, 1 hat the sum of four millions lie granted to his Majesty to defray the extrauidiuarics of the army fur This day, in the midst of the acclamations of great multitudes, amply returned by fheirown gracious manners, the Emperor of Russia and his charming sister, with I heir suite, puid a visit to the Bank, where the Emperor Alex- ander, who seemed solicitous for every kind of information, actually printed himsclfa one pound note. At six, Ibis even ing, the Sheriffs of London will attend the Emperor and the King of Prussia to know their pleasure, as to Ihe time of receiving the City Address.

When Marshal Blucher tvas at Dover, he was sur- rounded by a crowd of females, some of whom requested a look of the General's hair. He bowed and smiled; bill begged to be excused adding, wilh an allusion to the bald- ness of his head, that " if he gave Ihein all a hair a- piece, he should not have one hair left." This honest and unaf- fected veteran smokes his pipe, and shakes hands with John Bull, whenever he desires hiin to do so ; and though retired 10 liis own appartment, when the populace under bis win- dow called " Out, out /" came out as good- naturedly as if he w as doing himself a favour, and that they might see him as much as they desired. It is impossible to give an adequate description of the anxiety occasioned by the visit of the Allied Sovereigns, and their gallant bands, to Ascot Races on Thursday. At twelve o'clock, every road fo the course tvas thronged, and every sort of vehicle was put in motion, even farmers' waggons, many of w hich were filled wilh elegant women.

Tbe Emperor and the, King of Prussia accompanied Ihe Dutchess of Oldenburgh off the coursc afler ibis rare, and il was not without mticli persuasion that the populace were restrained from taking off the horses from the carriage. At ihc conclusion of thef following race, his BoVal High, ness the Prince Regent retired from the ground, ac. com" panieil by her Majesty, in the carriage of the latter, amidst t h£ congratulations of t he company. The veterans Blucher and Platoff left dileclly after Ihe Prince; Ihe former in a carriage, and Platoff on horseback. The same congratula- tions of respect for these gallant men, as before testified* took place. Hundreds were for taking ihe horses off General lJIncher's carriage, but a remonstrance f'rom'CSrt. Bloomfield a nd other gentlemen prevented it. Dinner was provided for one hundred persons at Frogmorr?, for the Royal Family, t he distinguished foreigners'and suite & c The august party first visited the Castle, aud viewed Ihe pictures and other curiosities.

COURT OF EXCHEQUER, MONDAY, JUNE 6. The Court was occupied the whole of this dav in the trials of three causes of considerable importance lo the public. Frauds by Collectors.— The Attorney. General v. George Heap, the same ti William Sutcliffe.— These were causes on informations filed at ihe instance of the Bctard of Taxes charging tbe defendants, as Collectors of I lie Property Tax for the township of Mansfield, in Ihe division ofMcvley West, in the county of York, with having collected and converted to their own use monies from fiveritiierent persona as Property Tax, amounting logel her to J. Ci. n which were not charged in the assessment; and for which offences H. e prosecution sought to recover five penalties of £ 100 each given by the statute. The defendants resisted the pn secn- lion, on the ground that, although they hail collected the money, they had paid il over to the Receiver- General To support this, they claimed credit for a dishonoured bill to the amount of £ 22. 10s. remitted 10 the Receiver- General ou account ofthe first half year's tax. But in this attempt they wholly failed, it being clearly established by evident e that the bill had been rejected by Hie Receiver- General nnd returned, and that the Collector had paid him no more than the exact amount of the rate corresponding « ith the Ccn- missioners' duplicates transmitted to tbe Exchequer. 1 he Jury, without hesitation, found a verdict for the Crow n 111 the full penalties, viz. one penally of £ 100 011 the inf. , illa- tion against Heap, and of jUuo 011 that against Sutcliflc. Landlord's Refusal to allow Property ' Tax — ' Ihe Alton, ev- General v. Hinks the younger.— This was an information against the defendant lo recover Ihc penalty of fs0 in con- sequence cf his having, as agent or rent- gatherer lo his father, ablacksmilb, at Bromley Bow, refused to allow his tenant the Landlord's Property Tax. The evidence of Wood, tbe tenant uf two small houses in Stepney, proved that ou the 19th of October, 1813, he paid the Collector i' 2. 10S, for Landlord's Property Tax, and tbat 011 ihe 53d of that month he offered the Collector's receipt, wilh the residue of the rent in Bank- notes, to Hie defendant, and which lie refused lo accept, insisting on the full rent, and objecting to allow any part of the Property Tax ; that the like offer was made on ibe following day, when the refusal was again repeated; and lhat the fal her ( Hiiiks the elder), insisting on the full rent, sent in a distress for anil levied it, with two guineasexpences, on a Mr. Stokeson, the succeed- ing occupier of the houses. The defendant's Counsel endeavoured, with some ingenuity, to impeach the record by technical objections, which were over- ruled by the Lord Chief Baron; and the defendant having also, without effect, attempted to shake the testimony of Ihe witnesses for the prosecution, the Jury found a verdict for Hie Crown — Penalty £ 50. His Lordship commended tlie conduct of Ihe Officers of the Crown in bringing such prosecutions before the public, in order tbat tbey might not fail by example to protect the individual against fraud, and to secure the payment of taxes by those 011 whom Ihe Legislature meant them to fall. postscript.

The first paragraph in the Moniteur of that day notices the arrival of his Grace 111 the Spanish capital 011 Ihe 24th ult. He was immediately admitted fo an audience by the King, who, it is added, received him with Hie most marksd distinction Ourillnstrious country- man was received wilh equally strong marks of favour by the other Members of ihe Royal I'amilv- j- lt is super- fluous lo express the satisfaction we feel, in common,, no doubt, wilh every one of our readers, at thus seeing every motive of solicitude dispelled respecting the safety ofa man, to whom his country, and indeed, all Europe, pwe so many obligations. Saturday being the day appointed for delivering the superb swords, voted by the Corporation ofthe City of London to the gallant Lords Hill and Beresford, the Cham- berlain's Office was crowded to excess by three o'clock, the time appointed for tbe ceremony. On the entrance of the Noble Lords, they were greeted with loud cheering. The ceremony commenced with their being admitted tu the freedom ofthe City of London, and the Usual oaths admi- nistered by Mr. Chamberlain Clarke, who afterwards addressed Lord Hill, on the many eminent services which he rendered his country, by bis skill and bravery, particular ly nt the battle of Vitloria", iu ihe month of June last. He congratulated him on his being exalted lo Ihe Peerage ; and 1 lie City of London felt considerable pride in it, us hi. ancestor, Sir Rowland Hill, was the first' Protestant 1 ord Mayor of the City of London.— His Lordship returned thanks amidst the shouts of applause of the public, anil placed the sword, 011 receiving it from Hie Chamberlain, bv his side.— The Chamberlain afterwards addressed Lord Beresford in 11 feeling and expressive manner, enumerating the various valiant acts performed by him during the late arduous contest, but particularly at Buenos Ayres, in which he was repeatedly interrupted hy llie applause of the spectators, and also 011 the sword being delivered to him, and which he placed by his side. ' I he Chamberlain after- wards delivered to his lordship Hie Freedom of Ihe City i- i a gold box, voted by the Corporation for his conduct at Albuera. Both the noble lords were loudly cheered 011 their departure, as was also the Rev. Rowland Hill. A message from the Prince Regent was delivered to the House of Lords this evening, by the Earl of Liverpool, staling that his Imperial Majesly had caused application to tie made to his Royal Highness, requesting permission so many people assembled ; all the beauty and fashion of I to land i-. i this country, for 11 short time, a body of 8000 troops, who had arrived 011 the coast, and intimating that their stay would be very short. His Royal Highness had acceded to the wish of his Imperial Majesty, and given orders that they should be accommodated during their stav. — The message was ordered to lie on tlie table.

At twelve the Emperor Alexander and bis amiable sister, the Dutchess of Olden- liurgh, arrived in a carriage and four, amidst Ihe cheeiiugs of a British public, aud took iheir station in the royal stand. The illustrious visitors bowed to the compan^ in return for continued plaudits. Her Majesty and the Prin- cesses next followed, and the next arrival was the King of Prussia, who met his share of British congratulation. The Prince Regent next arrived, amidst the universal plaudits ofthe assemblage; aud next the Dnke of York, who was hailed with the same loyal respect. The Royal stand was at this lime full, and the universal call of the thousands assembled was " Blucher— Platoff, Platoff" His Royal Highness Ihe Prince Regent condescendingly informed the company that neither had yet arrived. The Pacificator of Europe, the Emperor Alexander, was called : his Majesly came forward amidst applauses which rent the air. Her Majesty, the Prince Regent, and the Princesses, were respectively called, and each received cheers and other demonstrations of - joyful respect. The gallant Blucher arrived, and the ecstaey of Ihe company was such as we cannot even venture to describe. The horses were about to start, but it was impossible to clear Ihe course The gallant veteian approached lo Ihe front of the box, and the public voice congratulated him in cheers for several minutes. No attention whatever was paid to ihe racing, excepting by those concerned in helling speculations. The eves of the compnny were so riveted 011 the royal box lliat the people even turned their backs on the horses as they passed. His Royal Highness the Prince Regent conde- scendingly informed the company that Platoff was coming, pointing io him on horseback. The moment Ihe gallant General alighted, the eager and congratulating curiosity of the public prevented his easy access to the stand; hun- dreds, male and female, shook his hands as lie was passing, Afler having made his obeisance to the Royal Personages he appeared in front, and was saluted in tiie same manner as Field Marshal Blucher, wilh that ardour and earnestness so due to their gallaittrv.

The Illuminations at Welsh Pool took place last ntghf, previous to which the poor were dined with) beef, plam- pudding, ale rolls, potatoes, & c. from a subscription by tbe more opulent inhabitants. ' Ihe tables were laid in that capacious strci t leading from the Oak Inn to the Maikct Hall.— At Ellesmere, instead of illuminations, a dinner will be given to the lower classes, and there will be 11 ball for the tradesmen aud their families. A portion of the subscription bas been appropriated to the purchase of coal", to be distributed during the next winter.— At Btidg- liorth there will be a public dinner, with a display of lire- works, to- morrow, and a ball oil Friday evening.— Oswestry will be splendidly illuminated on Friday evening.

Among the toasts were the following:— The King— Mr. Whitbread— Mr. Benyon's Committee— May the Regent never forget his declaration • wheu Prince of Wales, that ihc Crown is held only for the Benefit ofthe People— The Princess of Wales, and may she ever find the People of this Country ready to defend her from Calumny and Insult— Civil and Religious Liberty— Dukes of Sussex and Kent— The Opposers of the Corn Bill in the House of Commons— The Liberty of the Press- General Lord Hill, 3 times 3— Major Cartwright— Mr. Bennett, aud thanks to him for the faithful discharge of his Dutv, 5 times 3— Sir F.

On Thursday evening the Sono Manufactory, near Birmingham, was illuminated— a most grand and splendid scene. The building is about 180 feet in length, and of proportionate height, it is regularly aud accurately con- structed,' situate in an admirable point of sight from an opposite bill, which, aided by some other peculiarities, afforded an excellent opportunity for an exhibition of the kind. Raised above the central compartment of the edifice, was seen a star of about 12 feet diameter, most closely com- posed of lamps, under which was a crown of the same dimensions, accurately finished, with llie crimson cushion, & c.; immediately below, the Prince's plume, wilh the letters G. R. Next in succession, appeared Ihe word " PEACE," surmounting a brilliant rising sun, which occu- pied the space above the door of the entrance. On each side the Illuminated pillars of the door was a fleur- de- lis. Alottg the front of the building, in characters of between two and three feet, the words-" BY PERSEVERANCE, VALOUR, UNION, AND MAGNANIMITY." Oneachcnd division was represented a shield; the one on the left, hearing in connection with the foregoing, " EUROPE RE- POSES FREE;" that on the right, " COMMERCE AND THE ARTS REVIVE ;" the outline of Ihe structure was described hv lamps— The exquisite taste discovered in blending Ihe colours ofthe lamps so as to harmonize wilh all the expres- sion of a fine painting, was one of . llie excellencies which baffle the powers of description. The whole formed a master piece of lustre and magnificence,— In the course of the evening four fire balloons were senl up— Ihe last was of large dimensions; connected to the bottom of each were a variety of fire- works, which, iu their ascent, discharged themselves in rapid succession. A profusion of rockets and Bengola lights added much to the amusement of the spectators. It is recorded to the honour of Birmingham, that so closely was the appeal made by the Magistrates for the prevention of fire- works complied with during the illu- minations, that not a solitary attempt to encroach upon it was witnessed ; thus the fair sex were allowed to mingle in the throng without fear or alarm, their only inconvenience arising from the unusual pressure of company in the streets. The city of Worcester was brilliantly illuminated on Tuesday and Wednesday last. An ox was roasted in Hinlon- lane, and a hogshead of cyder distributed al the cutting up. Several sheep were also roasted in the different parishes. There was a splendid illumination at Upton- on- Severn, on Thursday night; when a boy was unfortu- nately killed by a pistol shot. Hinging.— On Saturday the 4th inst. a new peal of 12 bells, at St. Nicholas's Church, Liverpool, was opened by the St. Martin's Youths, of Birmingham; and on Monday the 6th inst. liic Church- wardens gave a silver cup, of" 20 guineas value, for tho best perform- ance oil the said bells, and Mr. Dobson, the founder, gave a new peal of hand- bells, of five pounds value, for the second best. The cup was won by the St. Martin's Youths, and the hand- bells by the Ashton- under- Lyne Society. And on Tuesday was rung, by a selection of hands from lite different Societies, a compleat peal of 5016 Grandsire Cinques, in three hours and thirty- six minutes.

TO ™ THE Town and Neighbourhood of Shrewsbury. THE COMMITTEE appointed to arrange the Public Reception, & c. of Lieutenant- General LORD HILL, hastens to lay before the Inhabitants of Shrewsbury and its Neighbourhood an Outline of the intended Proceedings, for a Day which will lie long dis- tinguished as one of Ihe most memorable antl gratifying. The Committee has been guided by an anxious Desire that every Part should evince the most marked Respect for the distinguished Character who honours the Town with a Visit; and that every Class should be enabled to take a part in the Public Reception, and participate in the general Rejoicings upon Ihe Occasion. Wilh these Views, the Committee proposes lhal the Procession be formed of the Trades of SHREWSBURY, with their Music. Flags, and Streamers; of such of the Inhabit- ants of the Town and Neighbourhood as choose to join on Foot; and by a Cavalcade, which will immedi ately precede his Lordship and the different Corps of Yeo- manry.— The Foot Procession will commeuce in the Caslle- Foregate, and pass down Pride- Hill thro' the High Street to the Lion Inn, formed in such a Manner as will enable not only those who constitute a Part of it, but the Spectators in general, to gratify themselves with a View of the exalted Character they are assem- bled to receive,— The Dining Room in the Guildhall will be appropriately decorated with Banners and Devices, descriptive of the Places in Egypt, Portugal, Spain, and France, where the gallant General has pecu- liarly signalized himself. Sheep and Ale w ill be distributed in various Parts of the Town, under such Regulations as it is hoped will contribute to the Enjoyment of the Inhabitants and ensure general Satisfaction. In the Arrangements for the Ball, the Committee is highly indebted to the Assistance offered by several Ladies, thro' whose Means the Rank and Fashion of the Female Part of the County will be united with Ilia Town of Shrewsbury in the concluding Scene of this brilliant Day. The Committee calls with Confidence upon the English Feeling ofthe Town and Neighbourhood of Shrewsbury for a Subscription lo carry their Plan into Effect. JOHNROCKE, Chairman ofthe Committee.

The following admirable Song was sung at the recent Anniversary of Mr. PITT'S Birth- day, celebrated al Edinburgh.— It was written by that honour to Scotland anil the rest ofthe British Empire, WALTER ^ COTT. t » dread was the time, and more dreadful Ihe omen, ' When the brave on Marengo lay slanghter'il iu vain, Aud, beholding broad Europe bent down by her firemen, PITT clos'd in his anguish the map of her reign! Wot the fate of wide Europe could bend his bravespirit, To accept for his country Ihe safety of shame, O then in her triumph remember his merit, And hallow the goblet that flows to his name! Round tbe husbandman's head, while he traces the furrow, The mists of the winter may mingle with rain, He may plough it with labour, and sow it in sorrow, Aud sigh while he fears he has sow'd it in vain. He may die ere his children shali reap in their gladness; But the blithe harvest- home shall remember his claim ; And their jubilee shout shall lie sofien'd with sadness, While they hallow Ihc goblet that flows tohis name! Though anxious and timeless his life was expended, 111 toils for our country preserv'd by his care, Though lie died ere one ray o'er the nations ascended, To light the long darkness of doubt and despair; The storms he endur'd in our Britain's December, The perils his wisdom foresaw and o'ercame, In her glory's rich Autumn shall Britain remember, And hallow the goblet that flows lo his name '. Nor forget HIS grev head, who, all dark in affliction, Is deaf to the t& le'of our victories won, And to sounds the most dear to paternal affection, The shout of his people applauding his SON ; By his firmness, uumov'd in success or disaster, By his long reign of virtue, remember his claim'. With our tribute to PITT join the praise of his master, Though a tear slain the goblet that flows to bis name! Yel again fill the wine cup, and change the sad measure, The rites of our grief and our gratitude paid, To our PRINCE, to ouv Warriors, devote the bright treasure, The wisdom tnat plaun'd, and the zeal that obey'd. Fili WELLINGTON'S cup, till it beam like liis glory! • • Forget not our own brave DALHOUSIF. and GR. ff.

I am ' no medical man, but I have heard that, during the paroxysm of a fever, nothing but palliative coolers can with propriely be administered, but when tbe fever abates, then is Ihc time to give the bark— The election- fever having now abated, though ( I fear) not altogether removed, I would wish to throw iu a few observations, which 1 hope may have the same effect as the bark, lo prevent th" return of the i aclory- fever. There is nothing more amusing to a by stander, like myself, tlian to jiear the hackneyed language of Ihe con- tending interests in the recent election. Both parties profess themselves to lie equally the advocates for " Freedom of Election," and, I verily believe, with equal justice. It argues au ignorance of human nature not to know tbat all mankind are influenced by some motive or other: a man of great landed interest is 110 more exempt from its effects than liis tenant What does it signify whether I am influ- enced bv whiggism or toryism, whether 1 am the tenant of an esquire or a nobleman, or whether 1 have been benefitted by the bounty of a great manufacturer. Gratitude, parti- ality, or prejudice will equally prevail— If I know any thing of the British Constitution, the perfection of it con- sists in au equal balance of Ihe three Estates of the Realm. That the balance has not been materially affected of late, I would prove from the successful efforts which this country has made to liberate Europe, and Ihe unparalleled charac ter which England has obtained by proving itself to have • had the power as well as the inclination to effect the grand aud important • object. Yet in minuter matters some errors possibly m y appear, as Englishmen do not pretend to be superhuman or omniscient. Were I to name any one branch of ihe Legislature w hich has less influence tliau the other at present, I should natne the aristocratical one, or the House of Lords ; and I could give substantial reasons for this opinion; but I wave ihis matter. The minority in the recent election complain ofa depres- sion of Ihe Rights of the People The truth or falsehood of this assertion depends 011 the right understanding of Ihe word u People. '— By this word I understand all Commoners of every description ; but, by the interpretation which seems lo be given 10 ihc word by a certain pa< ty, it means only Ibe lower class of the community. By these Representatives ought to be elected. ' Opulence must yield to poverty, intelligence to ignorance, and respectability to tbe rabble. The recent contest has not been ( as is falsely represented) between tbe landed aud ^ commercial interests; it has been between the higher and more intelligent order oftradesmen and the lower. The merits of Ihe candidates 1 put out of the question ; either is entitled to the situation of a Repre- sentative ; but 1 complain, and heavily complain, of the delusion which has been attempted lo be imposed on tbe inferior classes, aud the democralical spirit which such • delusion tends io excite among Hie ignorant. An attempt hachecn made to render those dissatisfied with their con- ditiau, who ought to lift up their hands in gratitude to God for being the inhabitants and subjects of sucli a kingdom as this. Dreadful has been the violence which some of the minority- parly have manifested. One has bad the brutality to address a well- known baronet, as much and as deservedly beloved by the poor as he is respected by the rich, with allusions to a heavy family affliction. The poor have been taught to look upon their'hest friends as their enemies, and to commit acts of violence ns a proof of British Freedom. If this he Freedom of Election, 1 know not what freedom is : but this is ever the casewhen " Those who, blind to all that truth requires, " Who think it Freedom when a part aspires, « ' When 1 behold a factious band agree " To call it Freedom, when themselves are free :" that is, when their party carries the election. 3 abominate the wretched misnomer. The inhabitants, Mr. Editor, of - this town, anil of this county, have reason io congratulate each other on the excellent characters hy whom they are represented. Tbe Members for the ' Comity have long beeu weighed in the balance, nnd liave not been found wanting. Their political conduct cannot lie equally approved by persons attached to different parlies, but all their constituents agree in the uprightness and independence of their conduct; and were some wild spec 111 at or to attempt an opposition, he would soon find all parlies agreed to reject his offers ; and such a candidate might possibly hold out that there was 110 Freedom of Election in this county.— No one will assert that Mr. BENHETT does not sufficiently espouse Ibe Popular Interest, or that he does nol attend to the wishes of Hie People. Such is the general opinion ofhis integrity, and such has been the experience tbat bis electors have had ofhis assiduous attention to llieir interests, tbat even 4hose constituents, who may disapprove of bis political principles, will ever give him their cordial support. Mr. I. YSTER remains to be tried; but, if we may judge from his public declaration, and from Ihe gentlemanly and liberal manner in which he has conducted himself, even to his opponents, on his canvass, every thing good is lo be augur- ed 1 heartily hope that the town lis wvell as the county will remain in peace anil undisturbed during- the lives of the present Representatives. I have been bred up, Mr. Editur, in whig principles ; I luvc the people, but 1 detest a mob. I am proud of my country, and am thankful to God that 1 was horn iu it. ONE OF THE PEOPLE. 3, A small portion of territory on the frontier line of the department of the Moselle. 4. In the department of the Saare the cantons of Saarbruck, Arneval, autl several villages. 5. The territory between Landau and the old French limits. 6. A small addition tt) the department of the Daube. 7. Item to the department of the Leman. 8. In the department of Mont Blanc, the Subprcfectures of Chainbery and Annecy, with certain exceptions. On the side of the Pyrenees, the frontiers to remain as they were 011 the lst of January, 1792. The Principality of Monaco to be on the same footing as at that epoch— Avignon, Venaissin, Mont- belliard, and other territories formerly belonging to Germany, but falling within the new line of demarca- tion, to remain incorporated with ' France. The respective Powers retain the right of fortifying what points of their territories they please. Holland, under the Sovereignty of the House nf Orange, to receive an increase of territory. The States of Germany lo be independent, and to he united by a federative league. Switzerland to be independent, and govern herself by her own laws. Italy, beyond the limits ofthe territory reverting to Austria, to be com- posed of Sovereign Stales. The island of Malta and its dependencies to belong to • his Britannic Majesty, All the colonies, fisheries, fac- tories, & c. belonging to Fiance on the lst of January, 1792, to be restored t> y England, with the exception of the islands of Tobago, St. Lucia, and the Isle of France and its dependencies. The Spanish pr rt of St. Domingo to be restored to thai Crown. Guadaloupe is re- ceded to France by the King of Sweden and Norway, pursu- ant to arrangement with his Allies. French subjects to enjoy the privileges of the most favoured nations on the Continent of India ; but no fortifications to be erected, nor any troops, beyond what may be necessary for maintaining the police, to be kept up in the French establishments in that quarter. The French right of fishery 011 the banks of Newfoundland and the Gulph of St. Lawrence to be on the same footing as in 1792. Vessels of war, and naval stores, in the maritime places, to be divided in the proportion of two- thirds to France, and one- third to the Powers to which such places shall belong. This provision does not apply to places taken by the Allies before the 23d of April, nor to the vessels and arsenals of Holland, nor the Texel fleet. Antwerp to be henceforth only a com- mercial port. All claims 011 account of supplies or advances made by the Allies lo France in the different wars since 1792 are renounced. Within two months from the signature of the Treaty, a Congress of all the Powers to be held at Vienna, to regulate the arrangements necessary to complete the dispositions of tbe present Treaty. Additional articles were at the same lime signed be tween this country and France, stipulating that the two Powers shall exert themselves in concert, at the Con- gress, to procure a total Abolition ofthe Slave Trade, on the part of all Ihe Powers of Christendom: that Commissioners shall be appointed on both sides, for liquidating the expences for the maintenance of prison- ers of war; and that the sequestration of property- belonging to individuals of both countries shall be mutually removed. The Continental acquisitions got by France are nol of a magnitude to increase either her power or her territory materially, and probably originate in the famous Declaration of the Allies, issued on the 10th of November, at Frankfort, which promised to the French a territory larger than they enjoyed under their Kings: What they offered to Bonaparte, they could not, with propriety, retuse to Louis XVIII. They may also be considered as a compensation for the French colonies retained by England. There is only one article of the Treaty which will appear objectionable, anil that is one of the clauses respecting the Slave Trade. It is therein stipulated, that France shall be permitted, for the course of five years, lo carry 011 that most nefarious traffic. How- ever, every precaution has been taken to mitigate its infamy, and to coufine it to the party, stipulating the horrible permission of bartering away the liberty of their fellow- creatures, and tearing them from their homes aud families, to lead a life of irremediable wretchedness and debasement, under the whips of the most callous wretches, on a remote aud uufriendly soil. This clause is objectionable in another point of view, as it is calculated to excite great dissatisfaction in the courts of Lisbon and Madrid, who will probably claim the same privilege as the French ; and we know that one of them has complained, for some time, at our interdicting Ihis execrable trade. It also contains the germs of future distention between this country and France) for though it is carefully stipulated, that the latter should only have the permission for five years and that confined lo its own colonies, it is strongly apprehended, that the French slave- trader will try all possible means to evade that part of the clause which limits the traffic to his own Colonies; and that, at the expiration of the time, he will be very unwilling to renounce the great profits of an intercourse, at once abominable and lucrative. France, however, BIT, have said, " it is a mockery to put me again in posses- sion of my Colonies, unless you restore at the same lime the means of cultivating them; without tire latter permission, they will constitute a useless aud very ex- pensive establishment." There is, certainly, an appa- rent cogency iu this observation; and it is said that the French Government strenuously pressed it. But, if interest constituted the varying land- mark of right, where would injustice or violence terminate? It is with pleasure we observe, that the treaty con- templates Ihe establishment of commercial relations between France aud this Country. This is another and most important feature; and, indeed, we have only to remark, that whilst the permanent interests of Europe have been consulted, the particular policy of the British Empire has been most carefully attended to. PEACE. Substance rf the Definitive Treaty of Peace, concluded between prance on the one side, anil Great Britain, Austria, Russia, and Prussia on the oilier. These four great Powers negocia'. ed for their respective Allies; and as the events of our age will occupy a distinguished place in history, so will this Treaty be probably cited as the finest monument of political wisdom and moderation hitherto recorded. Perhaps at no antecedent period were such complicated interests discussed; and never was an arrangement made, in which so disinterested an attention was shewn tothe legitimate claims of all. Should it not secure, for a very long time, the repose of Europe, it must then be confessed, that there is a principle of restlessness inherent in political society, which 110 human provisions have strength sufficient lo counteract. By the Treaty, France preserves her limits as they stood in 1792, with the following additions 011 the old frontier towards Belgium, Germany, and Italy;— 1, In the department of Jemappe, the cantons of Dour, Merbes le Chateau, Beaumont and Chimav, to belong to France. 2. In that of the Sambre and Meuse, the cantons of Valcourt, Florenne, Beauraing, and Gedinne. The new French Constitution resembles, both in form and name, tbe British Constitution much more than that presented for tbe acceptance of llie King ou his first arrival. The power of legislating is 10 be vested iu the King, the Peers, aud [ louse of Commons.— The King proposes the law : however, five Members of Ibe House of Commons, if they agree, have the right of proposing one. The question is afterwards decided by a majority of votes. The discus- sions inthe Lower House are to tie public; those in tbe Peers secret. The Members of the former are to retain their functionsfor five years; but, from ibe account before 11s, it docs nol appear certain, whether the Peers are lo be hereditary, or elective; but the first election, in either case, is vested in Hie King. With respect to impeachments, and all cases of attentat ion of Members of either House, the rules are the same as in tIiis country. All Frenchmen, without religious or any other distinction, are eligible to office One tliiug, which is particularly valuable in this Constitution, is, that the qualification for a Deputy, or Member, of the House of Commons, is the payment of 1000 francs, or about .£. 14 a year, in taxes, and lhat for an elector, ihe payment of 300 francs, or about £ 13. This payment must he in direct taxes, or it could not be esti- mated. lt becomes, therefore, a criterion of the condition of the member and of the elector. Each must have some property, or some respectable employment, 10 enable him to make such a contribution ; aud Ihe surest mode of pro- moting liberty, purity, and economy in any State, is to form the Legislative Body of those, who have the greatest interest in the country— tbe most to gain by it's welfare— the most to lose by it's misfortunes. Electors, who have themselves some property, or some respectable income, will elect such a body, without being induced to it by the mere influence of candidates,— that is, without corruption und without perjury— We are not now to offer a disquisition upon the subject, but we are very sure, that the morethis Ericciple is considered, the more it will he considered as the est mean, permitted by tbe present stale of society, for promoting the great end of all governments, security of property aud persons, wilh economy and purity iu the administration of public affairs. ARRIVAL OF THE EMPEROR OF RUSSIA AND KING OF PRUSSIA. London, IVednesday, June 8. The Emperor Alexander and the King of Prussia arrived yesterday in town. They entered in a private manner, which greatly disappointed the vast assemblage of persons whom curiosity and esteem had collected to witness the arrival of these Illustrious Guests. The Emperor of all the llussias stopped at the Pulteney Hotel, and the King of Prussia proceeded to Clarence House, St. James's. The Emperor of Russia came in the carriage of his Ambassador, Count Lieven, without a single attendant, nor did the drivers know the elevated rank of the personages whom they were bringing; and even when he alighted at the hotel, he passed the lower rooms without being known by the domestics, and had run up the first flight of stairs, when the Prince Gagarine announced that it was the Emperor. This announce- ment ran through the mansion, and in an instant his sister, the Grand Duchess, met him on lite stairs, and they saluted each other in the most affectionate manner. The Emperor afterwards embraced the interesting child Prince Alexander. The joyful tidings of his arrival resounded not only throughout the house, but in the street, where there was an immense concourse of people, who expressed their joy by repeated huzzas. In a short time after he appeared at the balcony, and bowed in the most condescending manner, and which he continued to do, at intervals, till eleven at night; the people rending the air with their shouts of applause. Earl Morton, the Queen's Chamberlain, waited upon the Emperor in the name of the Queen, to express her congratulations on his arrival. At half past four o'clock, the Emperor went in Count Lieven's carriage, accompanied by his Excellency, to pay his respects to the Prince Regent, at Carleton House ; but he went in such a very private manner, that the escort of horse who were appointed to attend him missed him; but they escorted him back to Pulteney Hotel. He was received in a very private manner, by the Prince Regent; and it is unnecessary to say most graciously. He declined seeing any visitors yesterday at Pulteney Hotel; but the enquiries of our Royal Family, the Foreign Princes in this country, and personages of distinction, were innumerable.— Pulteney Hotel, for the reception of the Emperor, has been fitted up in the most magnificent style. The King of Prussia, his sons, and their numerous suites, came also in a private manner, and arrived at Clarence House, St. James's, about three o'clock. A party of the Yeomen of the Guards, and the Royal Attendants, were in readiness to receive him. His Majesty appeared highly delighted with his residence, and after viewing it, partook of some refreshment. A ' few minutes before four o'clock, his Majesty, attended by his aide- de- camp, went to Carlelon House, to pay his respects to the Prince Regent. His Royal High- ness received him in the same gracious manner he did the Emperor of Russia. His Majesty received visits from the Prince of Orange, the Prince of Oldenburg, and a number of others. His Majesty afterwards visited the Duke and Ducbets of York. " At a quarter before nine o'clock the Prince Royal of Prussia and suite arrived at Clarence House. Some of the Royal Family of Russia were then at diuuer there ; the Prince was shewn in to them. At a quarter past eight o'clock her Majesty, with the Princesses Augusta and Mary, arrived at her Palace, from Windsor. At nine o'clock her Majesty held a private Court, for the purpose of receiving one of the principal gentlemen of the Emperor of Russia's Court, to formally announce the arrival of the Emperor, when her Majesty expressed her pleasure to receive the Emperor. At six o'clock Marshal Blucher arrived in St. James's Park, by the Horse Guards, in the Prince Regent's open carriage, escorled by a party of Light Horse. The carriage was surrounded by an incalculable number of horsemen and pedestrians, vyeing with each other who should show him the most marked attention, and the greatest applause. The drivers made first for Carleton House, in order tbat the gallant Marshal might pay his respects to the Prince Regent, and no sooner were the gates in the Park opened to receive the carriage, than there was a general rush in of the horse- men and the public at large. Such was the zeal of the populace to follow the gallant veteran, that the two centinels at the gates were completely overpowered, and it was with the greatest difficulty, with the assist- ance of several persons, that the gates could be shut. The multitude proceeded up the yard of Carleton House with the Marshal's carriage, shouting the praises of Blttcher. The carriage stopped at the side door, but he was not allowed to enter Carleton House that way. Ou its being known who had arrived, Colonels Btoomfield and Congreve came out and received the brave Marshal uncovered, and in that state conducted him, arm in arm, to the principal entrance, followed by the populace. The cause of rejoicing being known to the crowd assembled in Pall- nrtall, they tost all respect for the regularity of the place, and scaled the walls and lodges in great numbers; their impetuous zeal was indulged by the great door of the Hall being thrown open to them, and some of the gentlemen on horseback hail nearly entered the Hall. After the first interview with his Royal Highness was over, the Prince returned with the gallant Blucher from his private apartments, and in the centre of the Grand Hall, surrounded publicly by his people, placed a bine ribbon 011 his shoulder, and fastened it with his own hand, to which was hung a beautiful medallion, with a likeness of the Prince, richly set in diamonds. Marshal Blucher knelt while the Prince was conferring the honour, and, on his rising, had the honour to kiss his Royal Highness's hand. The Prince and the Marshal bowed to the Public, anil their acclamations in return exceed description. The Marshal afterwards had an interview with the Prince for about half an hour, and then proceeded to the house of Mr. Gordon, in St. James's Palace, followed by an immense multitude 5 some of whom got into the carriage with him. The crowd remained in the Court- yard till dark, huzzaing, and the gallant Marshal fre- quently showed himself at the window to gratify them. The veteran Platoff, Hettman of the Cossacks, arrived at Dover early on Monday morning, where he was greeted with the loudest huzzas, many striving to have the honour of shaking hands with the hero. He arrived in London with Marshal Btncher, and shared wilh him in receiving the most gratifying expressions of popular approbation. In the British capital are now assembled— The F. mpeior of Russia The Priuceof Mecklenburgh The King of Prussia The Prince of Bavaria The Prince Regent of Eng- The Pi nice of Wirteniberg land TheGrand Duchess of Olden- The ttucen of England burgh ThePrinccs and Princesses The Prince ofOldenburgh of the Blood Royal Marshal Blucher Prince Henry of Prussia The Heltman Platoff The Sons of the King of General Barclay de Toll! Prussia Generals Bulow and Yorck The Prince of Orange Prince Metteruich, & c. & c. Emperor, dressed in green regimentals, a Russian dress, and attended by the Earl of Yarmouth, the Emperor's Chamber- lain, and his numerous suite, arrived in one ofthe Duke of York's carriages, escorted by a party of Dragoon Guards, or Queen's Bays ; they were received _ by a Guard of Honour, and the band in their state uniform, stationed in the court yard for that purpose. At half- past one his Royal Highness the Prince Regent arrived. I11 tiie first carriage was Colonel Bloomtield, his Royal Highness's principal Equeiry. In the second carriage was his Royal Highness, accompanied by the Duke of York and Viscount Castlereagh, his Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs. His Royal Highness was escorted by a party of tbe Roval Horse Guards; bis arrival was announced by the sound of trumpets, and the band of the guard of honour playing," GOD save the King." The Priuee was received by the Lord Chamberlain, tlie Lord Steward, the Cabinet Ministers, the Great Officers of State and the Household, those who have returned to England after filling high diplomatic situations abroad, together with the Dukes of Kent and Cambridge. His Royal Highness the Prince Regent was dressed in a Field Marshal's uniform, wearing the Ordeis of the Garier and l'Espirit; he was met, after he had ascended on the first flight of stairs, by the Emperor, who very graciously received him as his visitor, and conducted him to his state apartments, when tbe Court commenced, and they were all formally presented to the Emperor by his Chamberlain and Count Lieven. The court continued rather above half an hour. On the company leaving, the Emperor conducted the Prince Regent 10 the door, aud afterwards continued in conversation witti Sir Charles Stewart for some time. The Emperor and his suite then returned to Pulteney Hotel. We presume it is not eti- quette for him to attend the Court of the King of Prussia, which is very much lamented, as it would have considerably heightened the effect of the royal scene. The effect is not to be described of so many warriors, in regimentals, sur- rounded by an incalculable number of English, expressing, by shuutsof applause, their approbation, ' t he Prince Regent was greeted with loud aud reiterated acclamations as he pa> seil through Pall Mall. The King uf Prussia's Levee was attended by all the same distinguished characters, except the Emperor of Russia and bis suite, with the addition of Marshal General Blucher, who was dressed iu his full regimentals, and wearing the blue rib- bon and the valuable medallion with which the Prince Regent was graciously pleased to invest him ou Tuesday last, and also an orange colour ribbon of another order. The Piincc Regent and the company were received by his Majesty's Aide- de- camp, Baion Brooughwick, and Lord Charles Bentiuck, his Chamberlain appointed by the Prince Regent, The Kiug of Prussia was accompanied by bis sons, his brothers, his nephew and cousin, and his numerous suite. His Majesty's Levee closed ai a quarter before three o'clock. The Emperor of Russia, and nearly the whole of the foreigners, were without powder at both the Levees. THE OUEES's COURT. At five o'clock hei Majesty held a Court at the Queen's Palace, for the purpose of the distinguished Monarcbs, and 1 otheis, being introduced to her. The Emperor rode in the Prince Regent's state chariot, drawn by two beautiful white Hanoveiian horses; he was dressed in a scarlet uniform, with silver lace and epaulets, witb his sister, the Grand Duchess of Oldcnburgh. In the other carriages were Prince Gagariue, the Earl of Yarmouth, & c. The Emperor • vas introduced lo the Queen by Earl Morton, her Chamber- lain, and others. Her Majesty was pleased to express her high gratification and honour of receiving the Great Emperor at her Palrce; and the Emperor, in reply, expressed a sense ofhis feelings at tbe flattering manner in which he had been received iu England. Her Majesty was accompanied by Princesses Augusta, Mary, the Dutchess of Yoik, the Princess Charlotte, the Dukes of Yoik, Kent, Sussex, ond Cambridge. She was attended by her full Court Utendants. At half past six the King of Prussia, accompanied by his family and suite, arrived in state, attended by Lord C. Bentiuck and others. They were all received most graciously by ber Majesty upon their introduction. At seven o'clock the Queen's Court closed. After which her Majesty and the Princesses went to Carlton House, to form a party at dinner, with the Emperor of Russia, the Grand Dutchess of Oldenburgh, the King of Prussia, his two sons, his two brothers, his nephews, and his cousin ; Prince Redzeval, Prince Royal of Wirtembnrgh, Prince Royal of Bavaria, Prince of Orange, Prince of Olden- burgh, tbe Duke and Dutchess of York, the Dukes of Kent and Cambridge, Princess Charlotte, Prince Charles of Mecklenburgii, and Princess Sophia of Gloucester. he had George Lord Viscount Hinchinbroke, who married Louisa, daughter of the Earl of Be I more, and who has issue. By the elevation of Lord Hinchinbroke to the Peerage, a va- cancy occurs in the representation of the county of Hunting- don, for which Lord Stralhaven is declared a candidate. Lord Auckland's sudden dissolution ( mentioned in our last) was occasioned by a disease which the faculty term angina pectoris, or ossification of the vessels of the heart. By his lordship's death a pension of £ 2000 per annum fall* in to the public, and ihe Government have the Auditorship of Greenwich Hospital at their disposal. BANKRUPTS, JUNE 4.

F. AD, is now considered the memory of man, being potent, safe, and pleasant. The rapid and increasing fame bestowed on its author arid inven- tor, Dr SOI.

The venders ot this Medicine frequently cannut get supplied so quick as the demand is for it; and it is a fact worthy of remark, that they are sold nearly as soon as they arrive to hand, most of the Us. bottles being bespoke before they are ordered.

Dr. Solomon expects, when consulted by Letter, the usual compliment of a one pound note to be inclosed, ad- dressed " Money Letter, Dr. Solomon, Gilead- tlouse, near Liverpool. Paid double postage." The House of Commons was occnpicd on Monday- near three hours in receiving Petitions from various parts of the country against the Non- Importation bill; which were accumulated in such masses, that it literally became necessary to carry them out at intervals in a sack, which was procured for the purpose. Perhaps on 110 former occasion were the presentations of peti- tions so numerous, nor was there such a lively interest excited throughout the House on their introduction. Important Caution.— A most nefarious system of swindling has been recently carried on in the North of England by a gang of villains, who have negociated a considerable number of accepted drafts, from 40/. to 150/. each, purporting to be ofthe " Swansea, South Wales Bank." No such Bank exists. It is honourable for South Wales and its Schools that, among a number of young men from the Principality who have distinguished themselves of late at Oxford Mr. Robert Williams, son of the Rev. Mr. Williams, Master of Cowbridge School, at the examination in Michaelmas Term; and Mr. John Williams, son of the Rev. J. Williams, Master of Ystradmeurig School, at the examination in this Term, should have been found worthy of the First Honours in Classical Literature. A few days since, Mr. C. 11, a principal land His Royal Highness the Duke of Clarence, when last at Boulogne with his squadron, was invited 011 shore on landing, the fish women appeared in a body, all dressed in white, and presented him with uosegays. His Royal Highness, in return for their friendly greeting, saluted the ladies all round, who appeared truly grateful for the compliment bestowed upon them. THE BRITISH, RUSSIAN, AND PRUSSIAN COURTS. London, June 9. Yesterday will be rendered memorable by the extra- ordinary circumstance oftwo Foreign Mouarchs having held their Courts in London. The Emperor of Russia is a very early riser ; he had breakfasted yesterday morning by a few minutes after eight o'clock, and left Pulteney Hotel, and went to walk m Ken sington Gardens; he returned to Puiteney Hotel about ten o'clock, and, in a short time after, he wentout again, accom- panied by his sister, the Grand Duchess of Oldenburgh, in one of rhe Prince Regenl's carriages, to view Westminster Hall, Westminster Abbey, and the monuments and cuiiosit es in it. He was received by the Dean, who proutled suine refreshment for the Emperor and Duchess. The Emperor of Russia has accepted of the Duke of Cumberland's house, iu St. James's Palac-', fo the purpose of state business; and the Emperor held a Coin t or Levee there yesterday. Avery few minutes after oneo'clock, the holder in the neighbourhood of Exeter, having some eslates put up at auction to be leased, a spirited com petition took place ; but in the midst of the bidding, he slopped the auctioneer, saying, " That is enough; it is as much as the farmer can afford to give." Agricultural Report for May.— The late dry- weather has had the best effect upon the corn crop, the whole of which, upon all those soils that were cultivated, is in the most promising state. The young wheats have tillowed abundantly, and shot up into a spindle with a strong dark green pendant flag, an appearance that always precedes a full crop.— The barley crop is most promising, being a regularly grown plant, in consequence of the genial showers that fell at the beginning of last month; the late sown is finely upon the curl.— Rye has sprung into ear, and promises an early ripe crop.— Oats have also tillowed well, and appear a full crop.— Pease are strong on the bind, free from the fiy, and look well on the soils under the row culture.— Beans have a large leaf and a regular plant. On the Effects of Swedish Turnips on the Taste of Buller.— On this subject, a correspondent observes:— " 1 last winter fed fifteen Cows with the yellow Scotch Turnips, giving each cow about two bushels daily with hay, taking off the tops, and being very careful that they had no Turnip that was in the least decayed, ( the refuse being given to young cattle) and there never was better milk and butter eat than that which is thus produced, lt was the same with the Swedish Turnips, which I fed one cow with for two winters with the same precaution. I conceive ( whether true or not I must leave others to determine) lhat the strong taste so given to milk and butter arises from inattention to this precaution only. Their eating decayed rotten grass in the spring, drinking foul water, eating the decayed leaves of trees when rotten, or any substance of that kind in a state of decay, will communicate the same flavour. The above remedy has the advantage of being more simple than any other process 1 have seen stated."

SMITH, WE cannot help taking this Opportunity of writing to you to inform you of the mostcapital Cure performed bv your valuable Medicine, the PLOUGH\ 1 AVs DROPS. We send you this, merely that others who are afflicted may find Relief. In March, 1809, my Wife was delivered of a fine Girl, who continued so about a fortnight; after that the Child began to break out iu large Blotches all over, about the Size of common Nuts, which turned, iuto Ulcers. We ap- plied to the besl and most experienced medical Men in this Neighbourhood, who stiled the Complaint Scorbutic, or the King's Evil.— Aftet almost a twelvemonth's trial, but in vain ( the Child still getting worse), we were recommended to try your Ploughman's Diops; we bought a small Bottle at Mr. Capsey's, of Wellington, and to our great Surprise and Joy, iu a week, we found such Alteration in the Child for the better, that we kept entirely to jour Drops; and now, blessed be God ! she is as well as any Child 111 the Country; and we have to say, that we have, half the Bottle ' eft. Dear Sir, y it are at Liberty to make Use of this as you think pro- per. Though unknown, we remain. Dear Sir, Your most obedient humble Servants, JOHN REVET. Witness WM.

CASE of MR. J. DARLINGTON'S CHILD. SIR, Nantwich, March ISth, 1814, ACTUATED by a sense of gratitude for the preservation of my child, I hasten to lay his case before you, and authorise you to publish it if you think proper; I am anxiou* you should so do, to prevent others, if possible, from being prejudiced against so invaluable a medicine, till they have given it a fair trial, they will then like myself lie convinced of its tea! utility. My son, who is now eight years of aae, was from infancy subject to a Scorbutic humour, which gradually spread into blotches nil over his body, attended wilh paiu and itching to such an extent, as to deprive himself and Parents of rest lor several months, who, to prevent him, from injuring himself, were under tiie painful necessity of securing his bands. I11 this dilemma, the eminent of tliR medical profession were consulted without effect. Willing to grasp at any shadow of relief, 1 purchased a bottle of your Drops from Mr. Fox, Printer, Nantwich ; no matciial alter- ation took place, and my former prejudices again took pos- session of me; I again took medical advice, and was again disappointed ; I soon afler saw the case of Mr. John Piatt's Grandson, of Nantwich, which induced me to purchase ano- ther bottle, and persevere in tbe use of them, according to your directions, and have now, notwithstanding all my former prejudices against public medicines, the satisfaction of announcing to you a perfect cure, performed by your Anti- scorbutic Drops alone, afler every remedy, and almost every glimpse of hope, bad vanished. 1 shall continue 10 give him a bottle al the spring and fall of every year. This case I will testify, either personally, or hy letter, post paid. We remain Sir, your grateful and cb'iged Servants, Bull's Head, bottom of Hospital- J. DARLINGTON, street, Nantnich. M.
