FOR PRESERVING THE TEETH 4 GUMS. rpIIE VEGETABLE TOOTH POWDER has JL so long been in general use that it is unnecessary to offer any further recommendation of it. Composed of Vege- tables, without the admixture of any Mineral or pernicious in- gredient whatever, it is free from the usual objection against the use of other Dcntrifices. Tts detersive power is just suffi. cient to annihilate those destructive particles which adhere to the Gums and the Interstices of the Teeth ; healing injuries in the former, and promoting a new Ennmel ( where it has been injured or corroded) on the latter. It. likewise imparts a firmness and healthy redness to the Gums; and if used regu- larly will preserve the Teeth in a sound state to old age.

Their Address is dated 6th August, ( when tbe King was in London) but acknowledges receipt, and goes on to stale, that " we now naturally feel the highest exultation and pride, '• in being honoured with the presence of the greatest Monarch " upon earth."

The Constitutionnel of this day says—•"• The disposi- tion of England in the new Congress was judged of bv tiie choice of the Marquis of Londonderry to represent the Cabinet there. It is on that account that so much importance is attached to the knowledge of the diploma-' tist who is to succeed him. " Tiie intentions of Austria cannot be mistaken, since now, as heretofore, she wiil have M. de Metternieh as her Representative. " As to Russia, it is not ertiy to foresee the attitude she will take in the Congress. It was announced that M; Capo d'Istria had lost a part of his influence at St. Petersburg, and yet it now appears certain that this Minister Willi accompany to Vienna or to Italy the Em- peror Alexander. M. Capo d'lstrut is a Greek bv ori- gin, and is considered the head of the Russian party that would favour the interest of Greece. There is rea- son to hope, therefore, that the sacred cause of this an- cient and glorious nation will not be altogether aban- doned. These conjectures give some credit to the ru- mours which circulate in some diplomatic circles, that Russia, which at first seemed to be about to succour the Greeks, and which afterwards showed other views, now returns to the system first attributed to it. " All these elements are to be brought into contact, and the most penetrating eye can scarcely guess the na- ture of the resolutions which will be. the consequence of it. What will be done can only be judged of by what has been done. For some years the present has been never like the past. The future will resemble it still less. We must consult things ; the reign of men is but tran- sitory. With them their doctrines pass away. Let ns hope then, that the Cause of humanity in Greece will not be forsaken, and, that the cause of liberty in Eu- rope, which nothing can destroy, will find also some de- fenders among the arbiters of the destinies of nations. " The Council of War at Vienna have addressed an Order to their Admiral in the Mediterranean, bearing that the Austrian Government will not acknowledge the blockade which the Insurgents have declared as to seve- ral Turkish ports. The tenour of the document shows sufficiently that the Court of Austria is not disposed to recognize the independence of Greece. \\ hat now inte- rests the Greeks is, perhaps, not that other nations should help them, but that they should not make common cause against them." ODESSA, July 25.— There have been in this port since the beginning of the Greek insurrection several ships of Hydra and other Islands of the Archipelago.—•. When it was known that the third naval expedition had sailed from Constantinople, and that the. port of that citv was without ships of war these intrepid mariners formed the design of going to Constantinople and burn- ing the arsenal. Perhaps this enterprise might have been crowned with success, but our Government vvo » ld not suffer the Greeks to go out of the port. They have in consequence sold their ships, r. rtd returned to their own country by a great circuit through Germany and Italy. It seems even that the Porte was warned of tiie plan, as they had taken measures against the fire ships which it expected to some front the Euxine side. Several vessels have brought tis news front Constan- tinople to the I9th. The capital was tolerable tranquil and the Porte had contented itself up to that time with putting lo ileath spice licfi Grecki ofilie Clauds, Thu ( jre. it Turkish fWt seems, if not entirely destroyed, at least < j(! t of condition to be of service ; and the Turks will not speedily cope at sea with the Greeks. A vic- tory was also spoken of which the Greeks had gained over the Egyptian squadron, after which the latter had returned to Alexandria, The Turks knew of the taking of Ni- polidi Romania, Athens, Arta, and even Patras. All these events had made a deep impression on them.— It is sa: d that there were found in Napoli di Romania more than 30,000 English Baskets, of which the Greeks had great need. AJIONA, AUJ;. 5— Tiie Captain of a ship from Ra- F lor. ica, and the letters lie had brought from that citv, I convey the following news :— " The Greeks of Cassandra, whom the Turks drove ! out of their country last winter, took refuge in I'sara. 1 The inhabitants of that island, afraid of some attempt on the part of the Turks, took them into pay in their i land service, promising to reinstate them,- on the first ' opportunity in their own country. Conformably to this promise, wherii after the disaster of Turkish fleet the Channel of Seio, the islanders ol* Rsarn were out of danger, thev armed a squidrcJrt of small vessels, in which < they embarked the Cassaudrial's-. In the night of July 5, this squadron entered the Gulf of Salor. ica, and 1500 of the most resolute. Greeks having landed ou the coast, marched under cover of the darkness upon two batteries established by the Turks for the defence of their port. The troops orj. guard were surprised and killed i or dispersed. The Cassandrians, after having sptead j alarm into the very city, which the Turks consider, as J as tiie second capital of the Empire, shipped the artil- lery ot the batteries on board the squadron, and set Sail for Cassandra. These, the troops having disembarked at break of day in the port ofCduphos, divided iitotwo parties, of which one marched on the town of Cassandra, which gives name to the Peninsula ; the other to the Isthmus, called the Cassandrian Gates. Th • squadron supported their operations bv sea. The Turkish garri- son, surprised in the town, was cut to pieces, and the whole Peninsula, which it cost the Turks seven mouths to take, was reconquered bv the Greeks in six hours. " After this success the latter landed on the isthmus the artillery they had taken in the port of Saloniea, and fortified the passage. This time they are better armed than they were before they evacuated it, and they are supported by an established Government which knows the importance of the diversion th(; J; effect against the Turks in Macedonia." HAMBURG, August 15.— Accounts from Constan- tinople of the 22d July state, that besides the destruc- tion of the Admiral's ship, two frigates and several, trans- ports were rendered unserviceable, and that the fleet being afterwards attacked bv the Greeks of Tentdos, again lost a brig and a gun- boat Exactly on the dav of the nomination of the Hospodars, four Greek Bi- shops and 150 other Greeks were executed at Constan- tinople. VIENNA, Aug. 6.— The Archduchess Maria Louisa is expected here about the beginning of October. She will reside in a part of the PalaSe of Sehocubrunn, where her sou also has his residence, It is affirmed tiiat the Emperor Alexander has ex- prcsed a wish that the new Congress which was to be in Italy, at Leghorn or Verona, may be held at Vienna, " the residence iu which," ( these ate his own words) " is moie agreeable to him than countries that are too warm." PERA, July 15.— The mutiny of the Janissaries, by whom the atrocities were perpetrated, took place to- wards the close of the Ramadan, or Turkish Lent.— Preparations were making for the celebration of the grand festival of the Bairam, when the Mussulmans indemnify themselves by great excesses for their privations during the preceding month. The mutineers took advantage of the security in which the Government appeared to be I lunoed. Five Ortas, or Regiments of Janissaries, re- In ' _ o volted.' Numerous parties ranged through the different streets of the capital, pillaging the houses, particularly " those belonging to Greeks and Franks, and massacring even Mussulmans w hom they suspected not to be of their party. A party proceeded to the quarter of the Jews, where they committed the greatest excesses. Paving no respect to customs held sacred in the East, the Tur- : kish baths were broken open, and the females violated, i All the Christian women the banditti could discover were | dragged to the Slaves Bazaar, and sold to the highest | bidder. The plan of the rebels was to gain possession of I the Grand Vizier's Palace, and afterwards to proceed to the Seraglio. At first the most laudable efforts were in vain made by Hadschi- Salih, the Grand Vizier, to appease the mutineers. He went among thetn in dis- guise, and encountered the greatest risks. Finally, not during to trust the remaining Ortas of the Janissaries, which had taken rio part in the revolt, he resolved to OD- pose another description oftroops to the rebels, and called to his assistance Ibrahim Pasha, Commandant of the Asiatic troops encamped at Bujukdere. After ilia tribnting considerable sums among these troops, Ibrahim put himself at their head and attacked'the Janissaries. The streets of Constantinople became then the scene of a dreadful car. iage ; but the Asiatic troops at last ob- tained the victory. More than 200 Janissaries were killed, and some thousands have since been executed. The usual mode of cutting off their head took up too much, time, and they were dispatched by tving several together and throwing them into the sea. Some thou- sands of the less guilty have been embarkrd for the coast of Asia, and ail the prisons, the arsenal, the lazaretto, and a number of ships in the harbour, are filled with pi'i- ^ soners who await their sentence. " Tranquillity ( say* ' the writer of the letter) has thus been established, and the crisis is for the moment passed : but unfortunately it i may soon arise again. The Janissaries are convinced j that the Sultan and his favourite Ilaleb Effendt wish to1 j destroy their corps, and that the private Councils of the ' Giant'. Seignor have often under coasideration their i suppression, or at least the abolition of their most im- portant privileges. They besides believed that this plan is strongly supported by Lord Strangford and the other European Ministers. Their animosity against tiie Franks and the inhabitants of Pera is therefore ex- | ti e me. FROM GERMAN PAPERS* j FRANKFORT, May 6 The Oriental Spectator j affirmed that Napoli di Romania ( which was said to be j taken on the 30th May) was still in the hands of the j Turks on the 3C) th June, but thai it was closely pressed; and had commenced a negotiation for a capitulation. ; Letters from Alexandria of the 8th June say, that there have beet) some cases of plague amongst the lowest : class, but as the hot scasou was far advanced ft was i hoped that it would not spread.

SKELETON OF TIIE WRECK, While Sir Michael Seymour was in the eotJlrBailtl of - the Amethyst frigate, and was cruizing in the-' Bav oi Biscay, the wreck of a merchant ship drove past. Her deck was just above, water, her lower mast alone standing! Not a soul could be seen on board, but there was a ctib- house on deck, which had the appearance of having been recently patched with old canvas and tarpauliDg, as if to afford shelter to sonic forlorn remnant of the crew. It blew at this time a strong gale, but Sir Michael, listening only to the dictates of humanity,- ordered tiie ship to b » put about, and Sent off 3 boat with instructions to board the wreck, and ascertain whether there Was attv being still surviving, whom the help of his fellowmao might save from the grasp of death.

X M HI. A StII01. T AND INTERESTING NARRATIVE. On the 12th or March 1822. the s. hip Wear, Thomcis Thomson master, carrying; 11 men, sailed from London for a cargo of ice. Nothing particular occurred until tjts fifMi. when she was struck with a flaw piece of ice. about 11 A. M. upon the larboard bow. The men immediately tried the pumps, 1 but she filled so rapidly that they were found to be of no use. Finding themselves thus situated, thev proceeded to fix tlie ice anchfjor, which thev accom- plished Thev then began to collefct provisions ; thev got but four bags of bread, each containing one cwt ; several pieces of beef and pork, amounting to nearly a hundred pounds : a box of candies, about 18 inches square, atfd 36 yards of new canvas, together with all the ship's stock of nai& ; very fortunately thev had a sextant: thev also sa- ved nine blankets. One of the crew, John Williams, the carpenter, saved a few ofhistools, consisting of one axe, ti tenant saw, a spoke sliave, a mallet, and a small chi- sel. The wind blowing rather brisk, the slnp broke lotose from the ice, leaving six who ft- ere receiving the stores, on the icq. The remaining five on board immediately en- deavoured to get out the lioat, but whilst thui engaged, the ship went down, about five miniftes after twelve, lea- ving the long boat floating upside down on the water. The captain, mate, and cook, rising again, got on the top of the boat, and bv the help of two standing sail booms, and two oars, thev reached the ice, and by laving the oars from one piece of ice, to another, they reached the other part of the crew-. With the canvas and oars they erected a tent to screen themselves from the wind, and night coming on, finsy collected what clothes they had sav- ed to sleep < fti a'frd cover them with. In ttjc night, the weather becoming much more cold, thev were obliged to run about every half' hour, to keep themselves warm. On the 29th, some finding themselves stronger than others, proceeded to lav the booms and oars, in order to reach the nWe where the ship sunk, and collect whatever they could find floating. They recovered a boat hook, a rough oar, three main hatches, and the side of the half- deck hatch ; but no remains of file boat were to be seen. They then returned to the others, having been away about four hours; in returning, tiiev found a coil of rope, which the captain had fortunately thrown upon the ice when on- dcck. The following day ( 30th) the ice was so open that they found it impossible to get more than 50 yards in any di- rection. Being thus situated, and thinking that some other vessel might be going on the same errand for tee, they formed a triangle with the oars, and tied four hand- kerchiefs ou the top for a signal. They then began to collect what materials they hail to build abo'at withj yihicb consisted chiefly of the booms and three hatches ; they ix- mni by placing the booms parallel to each other, at the distance of two feet four inches, fhen knocked of! the boards from the carlings, and nailing them to the booms, thus formed the bottom. With the carlings. they formed the sides ofthe boat, and the slide ofthe - half- deck hatch formed the stern ; the woud remaining of the booms ser- ved for the head or bow ; the rough oar was split into two, which formed ihe gunwale ; the canvas was extend- ed twite round tlie outside, being nailed to the booms at the bottom, and lashed to the gunwale ; at the top, with MUM yarn made from the rope : this occupied them until tlie 8' th of April. About 12 P. U. of this dav, when they Vvere all fast asleep on the ice, the_ y were driven oritto Sea; aiid were nearly covered with water, before thev were aware of their increased danger ; most of their provisions were washed away, chiefly their bread ; whatever conti- nued to float theysaved. On the 9th. being provided with a flint and steel, they made a fire of rope, in order that they might melt the candles to grease the onts'de of the boat and keep out the water. On the 10th, having finished their boat, which in breadth was two feet four inches, and in length twelve feet six inches, they launch- ed it, and, delighted with the result, they gave three hearty cheers. They all immediately got in, and proceeds cd through the ice bv the help oftheir oars, towards Ice- land, from wliichplaeethev were distantabout 100 leagues. They had not been gone long when they were obliged, bv the exceedingly thick weather, to get upon another piece of ice ; thev slept there all night, and, on the 11th, pro- ceeded on about five A. M. Their provisions being nearly done, they caught as many seals as they could : towards eleven P. M. they again got upon the ice, and in this man- ner thev proceeded until the 13th, about four p. M. when, finding it impossible to get any farther, the ice being so thick and close, thev were obliged to stop ; they collected what drift wood they could on the ice to make a tire of, and cooked two seals. On the 11- th, thev steered their course towards the Faro Wands, and proceeded much as usual till the 17th, when they got into clear water ; but, the wind bring foul, still kept amongst the ice. catchi- ig as many seals as possible. On the 18th they cooked four seals, filled the candle- box with fresh water, obtained by melting ice, and three bags with ice, with the intent of putting out to sea, should the wind be favourable on the 10th. On this day the wind blew strong, and the boat being very narrow, they were obliged to throw out a bag of ice to keep the boat from upsetting. They continued steering for the Faro Isles until the 22d, when the wind changed to the eastward, on which account, not being able to proceed, the water in the box being used, and the ice in the bags having melted, thev judged it better to steer towards Iceland, hoping, at the same time, to meet with ice, and steered west all the way till the 28th, when they discovered land. They met with no ice, and had then been without watersix davs : about five P. M. it came on thick weather. On the 29t. h, being much clearer, thev found that the wind had shifted to the north- west, and thev, having no compass, were steering direct from the land ; they then turned, and kept the how to sea. On this day, between ten and four o'clock, they lost three men, who died for want of water. Towards 11 A. IT. the wind again changed to the eastward, and they conti- nued their course till eleven o'clock A. M. on the 30th, when they reached land. They remained there two days, creeping about on their hands and knees, ( having lost the use of their legs from cold, and their confined posture in the boat), when the}' were accidentally taken up by some of the inhabitants who wore passing in a small hoat, and were treated very well. They remained there till the 1st of . lime, and embarked for Port Rush. The carpenter, cook, and another of them are at this time in our Infir- mary, with frost- bitten feet,— Liverpool Courier. From the LONDON GAZETTE, Jug 21. WHITEHALL, Aug. 19. The King has been pleased to direct letters patent to be passed under the Great Seal of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, for granting the dignity of a Baronet of the said LTnited Kingdom to the Right Honourable WILLIAM ARBUTHNOT, Lord Provost of the City of Edinburgh, and the heirs of his body law- fully begotten. LONDON, August 2~ FUN'KITAL OF THE MARQUIS OF LONDONDERRY. At an early hour on Tuesday. St. James's Square, and the whole line along which the funeral procession was to pass, began to he thronged w ith persons anxious to witness the last honours paid to the deceased Minister. At a quarter before nine the coffin, covered with crimson velvet, inclosing the Marquis's remains, was brought out at the door in King Street, and de- posited in the hearse drawn by six black horses, and surmount- ed by plumes of black feathers. The procession then moved slowly onwards along the western side of St. James's Square, Pall- mall, Cockspur Siree), and Whitehall, to the great wes- tern door of the Abbey. The most perfect order was preserv- ed through the whole line. ' At the Abbey alone, at the moment when the body was removed from the hearse, there- was a loud shout of something like exultation, mixed with groaning.— This noise proceeded from about half the persons composing the crowd about the Abbey door, anil was repeated twice, ac- companied iosouie places with the waving of hats. The following is the form of procession Constables to clear the way. Eight Attendants on horseback- The Pal'- bearers, consisting of Eight Cabinet Ministers, in two mon'rning coaches and six. A splendid Plume of Black Ostrich Feathers, borne by Men oft horseback. Tht Coronet ofYhe Deceased, borne on a Velvet Cushion by a . Man on horseback. THE BODY. In a hearse drawn by six horses, the sides hearing the Family Escutcheons of the Deceased. The Chief Mourner ( Lord Castlereagh) in a mourning toach aud six. The nearest Relatives of die Deceased ( Colonel Wood and Lord Ellenbonvu^ li, See. tvc.) in mourning coaches and six. Several of the private Friends of the Deceased, in mourning coaches aud six. The Upper Servants ofthe Deceased, in a mourning coach and fou r. The Marquis's State Carriage. Fifty- one private Carriages, among which were those of Lord Stowed. Lord Grantham. Viscount Clife. Lord Melbourne, Hon. Win. Lamb, Earl of Aberdeen, Lord Wm. Gordon, Duchess of Richmond, Judge Advocate, Marquis of Ailes- • bnry, Earl of Blesinion, Viscount Sydney. Lord Mayor of London, Marquis of Bute, Marquis of Salisbury, Viscount Cranhourne. Right Hon. J. C. Villiers, Right Hon. F. Ro- binson, Mr. M'Donald, Viscount Sidmouth, the Bishop of London. Lm d Ellenborough. Marquis of He'adfort, J. Byng, Esq, Colonel Wood, Mr. Marsden, & d. & c. & c. The Servants were provided with scarfs and hat- bands, and there was a customary attendance of pages QH foot, INTERIOR OF THE ABBEY. Tickets had been issued to about GOO persons fur admission to the body of the Abbey, at eight o'clock. About that time the bearers of the tickets assembled in the Cloister's, Dean's Yard ; and shout half after eight were admitted into the Abbey through the Western Cloister door. The crowd passed on to the North end of the transept, where the only preparations for the funeral were observed. The platform was elevated about a foot from the pavement, surrounded by a low rail, which, to- gether with the platform, was entirely Covered w ith black cloth. Towards the south end of the platform, and in front of the statue of the Earl of Mansfield, was the grave, lined with brick, and with two ropes to lower the ciffiu. In no other part of the Abbey were there any railings or any other prepara- tions to keep off the crowd ( nor, on account of the small num- ber and decency of the persons admitted, were they at all ne- cessary). The only persons at this time in the Abbey having the appearance of official characters were the Almsmen ofthe Abbey Church in their purple gowns and. badges, and an officer in a scarf and full mourning, appointed to keep the Western gate. Several of the officers of the Queen Square Police Office Were also in attendance. Shortly after their ad- mission the spectators were all obliged to withdraw from the transept, and the gate which communicates from the north aisle to that part of the church was then shut, and kept close till the procession began lo move towards the grave. For more than half an hour afterwards the spectators, witli the ex- ception of a few who had gained admission to the organ loft, were strolling in groupes, which seemed but thinly scattered over the large area of the nave and aisles, conversing on the merits and fate of ihe mail, the last scene of whose career they were assembled to witness. Soon after nine o'clock the officeis marshalled the crowd, which formed two lines even with the pillars w hich divide the nave from the aisle ; and the number of persons who had been admitted were just sufficient to form these lines w ithout indecent crowding or inconvenience. The Gentlemen of the Foreign Office then entered from the Jeru- salem Chamber— a room on the South side of ihe Abbey, near the Western Extremity, and formed themselves two- and- two— two- thirds up the nave on the right hand side as they entered. The Foreign Ministers accredited at ihis Court then ranged themselves. They were all in scarfs and deep mourning, and with tile exception of Mr. Ru- b. who was unadorned by any such supposed mark of honour, they were decorated with the stars and insignia of - their various ordes. The other persons who were to form the procession were now collected in and about the door of the Jerusalem Chamber. About half past nine, the hvarse having arrived at the Western end, the doors were thrown open, and Dr. Ireland, the Dean of Westmins- ter, advanced to meet the body. Alxwt this time a loud shout, apparently of exultation and execration, was heard from the crowd without, which visibly affected many of the train and spwtators, to whom this interruption seemed to be unexpected. Some persons within seemed to take this as an ill- judged inaik of respect. One of the Peers in the train said to his neighbour— " If this lie a compliment it is a very ill- judged one " By most of the persons present, however, the character of the shout could not be mistaken, and many of the friends of the deceased were evidently surprised and hurt. The singing hoys and choristers then began to sing the commencement of the burial service—'' I am the resurrection and ihe life, said the Lord," accompanied by the solemn tones of the organ — which, at the same moment, began to peal through the vault- ed roof. The procession was then formed, consisting of mem- bers of the Lords and Commons, and friends ofthe deceased. & c. The procession did not go through the Choir, but passed to the gate which divides the west end of the north aisle from that part which is near the transept. Before they bad reached that poini the organ and the singers had ceased, aud they proceed- ed quietly to the grave. Lord Viscount Castlereagh, the chief mourner ( not so in name only), a young man apparently of fifteen or sixteen years of age, was visibly and deeply affected, and his face was dis- coloured with weeping. The Duke of Wellington, who was first on the right, and the Chancellor, who was first on the left of the pall, seemed the least moved in countenance, and walked firmly and steadily. The Earl cf Liverpool's counte- nance was much moved, his eye full of tears, he was more bent than usual, and altogether presented the appearance of a man broken with care and sorrow. Mr. Robinson and Mr. V. in- sittart seemed also much affected. Lord Sidmouth had the solemn gravity of countenance which that Nobleman preserves on every occasion. There was certainly iu the procession an appearance of sorrow not very usual in formal funerals ; anil it was certainly difficult for the spectators to suppress some emotions of grief when they saw the colleagues of the deceas- ed assembled round the body of a man who, in the course of nature, might have been expected to have lived to an advanced age, so suddenly and violently cut off. It was thirteen months before when many there present had seen the Marquis of Lon- donderry walk, one of the proudest members ofthe Coronation procession', up the same majestic church inro which his body was now ushered, covered with the vain pomp of heraldry, fol- lowed by the grief of his friends, aud the execration of an as- sembled multitude. When the procession entered the transept, ihe iron gates were closed after it., and the train assembled around the grave within the inelosure. On the arrival ofthe procession at the grave, the coronet and cushion were placed at the foot of the grave, in front of Sir Peter Warren's monument. Opposite, with their backs to that of Lord Mansfield's, stood the Dean of Westminster with the Bishop of London ott his right hand and Dr. Webber, re- sidentiary Prebend, 011 his left. The Duke of Wellington stood on the right of the cushion beyond the grave ; the Foreign Ministers were arranged in a semicircle. Tlie Right Rev. the Dean of Westminster then read the Psalm, but the ordinary lesson, from the 15th of the 1st Epistle to the Corinthians, was not read, probably from, the desire that the Service should he as short and unostentatious as possible. The Choristers then sang the part ofthe Service beginning " Man that is born of a woman hath but. a short time to live and is full of misery.— He coineth up and is cut down like a fl iwcr, lie fleeth as it were a shadow, arid never continued) in one stay." A small quantity of earth was then thrown into the grave by an officer, who attended with a small lacquered spade and a bag, while the Dean pronounced the solemn assurance of a resurrection to eternal life. The dirge was then sung, accompanied by the organ, and the service was concluded ill the ordinary w- ay. During the service, the Duke of Wellington- stood with his arms folded, firm and unmoved. The Earl of Liverpool seem- ed still deeply grieved, and more than once wept and shook his head. Mr. Vansittart and some of the other Ministers were much affected, as was also the Bishop of London in a parti- cular manner. But as we were returning, nothing struck us more than the sorrow of one ofthe servants of the deceased who was loudly and convulsively sobbing. The train withdrew after the service, Lord Liverpool leading Lord Viscount Castle- reagh ; and though many persons afterwards applied for ad mission to see the coffin before the tomb closed on it for ever, the Dean refused permission, even to his friends, at the par- ticular desire, it was understood, of the Marchiuness of Lon- donderry. The crowd gradually and slowly left the Abbey. the people in general were ten sensible, as Well a" r, too proud, to forget what was due to themselves in discharging their obliga- tion to the first Magistrate of the country. The British Constitution keeps the Sovereign so much out of view, that we are hardly warranted in connecting him with any of the measures of his reign, and it is only in proceedings like those which were instituted against the late Queen, that the Royal condtlTt can come under Uie public cognisance. - A general and guarded expression of respectful loyalty, therefore, is all that a British subject can well pay to his Monarch with- out mixing himself up with the measures of ail Administration. A knowledge of tlie private life tif the Monarch is reserved for the few who can boast of enjoying the Royal intim& cy, and all allusion to it by ihose who are deprives! of this advantage, is, to say the least ofthe matter, a piece of great presumption.— We are sorry to see that those who have acted in the name of the Church of Scotland, an Establishment for which the Scots ale so much indebted td the good sense, firmness, and bravery of their forefathers, ^ tid. fti the reputation of which fbeing as it is of such inestimable value to the country), every Scotsman in particular is deeply interested, should on this occasion have de- parted very widely from the path of propriety. We confess we are mortified beyond measure to think that the Address of this body should actually abound more in fulsome adulation than any of the last autumn's speeches of our more mercurial bre- thren on the other side of the water. A little extravagance was almost pardonable in them-— and great allowance too ought to be made ftir the circumstances under which the parties came forward. But unthinking extravagance is the last quality which the world would expect trom a body like the Church of Scotland ; and indeed the solemn and measured movement, the stately structure of the sonorous sentences of this Address, prove that however heavy it may be, it was by no means an un- laboured production. When another De Foe shall think fit to favour the world with a new history of Addresses, he can hard - ly. We think, fail to do justice to the following superlative passage :—" We cannot express what we feel, when within the precincts of your ancient kingdom of Scotland, we behold your Majesty in person— a Kingdistinguished by every splendid endowment, and gracted tvy every elegant accomplishment— at once the safeguard of bur country, and the bulwark of our Church. From the first moment that your Majesty undertook the charge of public affairs, the Providence of God has beamed upon you with a bright effulgence."— Put enough ! We refer our readers to the production itself, which we have inserted elsewhere at length; as well as that ofthe Episcopal Church of Scotland, which certainly will not lose in the comparison with it, — Mom.. * Ckron. We give among the notices of the reception of the King in Scotland, an Address of a Committee of the General Assembly, which takes tile name of the Church of Scotland, a more crawl- ing, blarney- like, unworthy production we have never read. A King distinguished by every •• splendid endowment, and graced by every elegant accomplishment— at once the safe- guard of our country, and the bulwark of stir Chinch the wisdom of ytmr Majesltv's counsels— ihe vigour of your arms" — Soul of JOHN KNOX ! This is enough to make his Majes- ty declare that in his heart he has always been a Scotchman. We all know the story of the German in training at Paris, who occupied Himself when alone wit. li jumping over the stools and chairs, and being questioned by his landlady as to the cause of the lumpish percussion of her floor, replied, " Je me fais vlf' (-' lam making myself sprightly.") The Scotch Presbyterian Addressers must have repeatedly practised privy super- saltations of the hounds of all decency and sense before they achieved this high. bound of more than Episcopalian sycophancy. We see it is signed by " David Lamont, Mo- derator."— So it is moderated, is it ?— Let us for the sake of hilarity— let us, good Mr. David Lamont— let us poor devils of the South, who are deprived of the " effulgence" of the Royal countenance,, have a copy of the unmoderated Address, and we. will cry with the Army. of the Faith—•' IlAdilresso neto'— the absolute Address for ever! In order to make the resemblance more complete to the unofficial rhapsodies which hailed : iis Majesty's landing at Dublin, '' the Commission from the Church" have introduced a very tolerable hull. " From the first moment that your Ma- jesty undertook the management of Public Affairs, ihe Pro- vidence of God has beamed upon you with a bright effulgence, » * * ai d that same Providence, we trust, will continue to encompass your Majesty as with a shield." Wrap your Majesty as with a Church door, would have been better. The idea is borrowed from the valiant Irishman who, when he was asked how be had got possession, by his own prowess, of five prisoners, cried Och, by J— 5 I surrounded them." We do not find fault with any marks of seemly respect that are paid to power, but this abject prostration of mind, this gro- velling, servile flattery, this base accumulation ofprais.-, ill and well deserved together, this unwarranted attribution in the name ofthe whole Church of Scotland, of wisdom to Counsels, which the Members of that Church dp not think wise, is really not respectful to the King. Do these addressers really believe that the King is the bulwark of their Church ? His Majesty is a Member of the Church of England, and as a Member of that Church he believes that the Episcopalian is the proper mode of Clmrch ^ Government. It was because they would not have Bishops, that the people of Scotland suffered the most cruel persecutions. His Majesty is hound by the conditions on which he holds his throne, to respect the Church of Scotland ; but to say that he is " the bulwark" oftlle Church of Scotland-- that hut for him the Church of Scotland might be attacked and overthrown, is absurd and untrue, whether applied personally or officially to his Majesty. Indeed his'Majesty, in his answer, which is throughout, for sense and propriety, an agreeable contrast to the Address, says he will maintain inviolate the lights and privileges " 10 which the Church of Scotland is en- " titled by the most, solemn compacts ;"— i. e. he will not attack rights which by law he is bound to respect. Another piece of tom- foolery, in somewhat a different style, is the address from the Episcopalian Clergy of Scotland, wdio assure the King of their attachment, because they view liinl as the lineal descendanuof the Royal Family of Scotland ( in al- lusion to the former adherence of . some Scotchmen to the House of Stuart.) His Majesty is not ignorant enough not to know that if he had no better title to his Sovereignty, than as lineal descendant ofthe Scottish Kings, lie won 1* 1 have no more right to the Crown than Sir W. Curtis has to the philibeg. His Majesty holds under the Act of Settlement and by 110 other title. This stuff might have been well when any one believed in divine right, hut now it is not to be dignified even with the name of folly— it is a grave, stupid affectation of folly— a pan- dering to ihe supposed fancy ofthe King, by feigning a degra- dation of intellect, while all the claimants can pretend to is a degradation of moral feeling. — Traveller. KING'S VISIT TO SCOTLAND. Tire LEVEE. — While speaking of the Levee, it may not be amiss to mention a case of unanimity among the . Edinburgh Magistrates, which occurred upon their being presented to the King when he landed : — His Grace of Montrose, by whom they were introduced, had instructed thein to do in all things as he did, meaning of course that they should do it seriatim but they, accustomed to hang together, made all their paces and bows one in the rear of the other, and contemporaneously with his Grace, to the no small amusement of the courtiers, and it is even said, of ihe King himself, who doubtless war, pleased to find that his loving subjects presented themselves before him in all their native simplicity.— Morn- Citron. Toe sensible manner in which the body of the people of j Scotland have conducted themselves, since his Majesty's ap- | pearance among them, is precisely what we anticipated. We j knew that if there was no want of interested servility among i the high Tories of that part of the Island, that if it would even j be difficult to find their equal in any of the three kingdoms, palace, at Bislioptborpel, 111 cascliisMnjesty'retumed from the north through York ; lint his Majesty has signified to his Grace, through an offiahd channel, that it will not be in the power of his Majesty to avail himself of his Grace's offer, as his Majesty, according to his present arrangements, will not have the opportunity of visiting York. NEW LOTTERY— On Wednesday the Bidders for Twenty Thousand Lottery Tickets, to be drawn 011 or before the 23d dav of, December next, attended the Chancellor of the Exchequer at the Treasury, when, after some conversation upon the terms, the sum of thirteen Potbids Eight Shillings per Ticket was agreed to be given bv Messrs. Bish, Hazard, Carroll, and J. and J. Sivewright. This contract vvas to have been made on the 13th inst. but with much other public bu- siness had been postponed dti account of the death of the Marquis of Londonderry. The East India Company have given notice,.. that subsequently to the 3 Ist of Mavch next, the interest of their bonds ( which in 1818 they reduced from five to four per cent.) will be farther lowered to three and a half per cent. COUNTERFEIT SOVEREIGNS •- There are several counterfeit sovereigns in circulation, and well executed. They are copper gilt, and weigh two penny weights" 12 grains each, but the genuine sovereigns weigh five penny- weights two grains. The sharp impression of the die on the Mint coin is quite perceivable, but the sur- face of the counterfeit rough, being gilt. There is also tiiis important difference, that the St. George 011 the counterfeits is reversed, as will be instantly perceived when compared with the Mint coin. The best means of avoiding imposition is to weigh them.

Among the various repotts iti circulation here ( Edinburgh), respecting the immediate cause which produced so fatal an effect on the Marquis of Londonderry's mind, as led him to destroy himself, there is one which seems to obtain implicit belief as coming from good authority. It is said that his Ma- jesty was always opposed to coining ( o Scotland, and stood out. against the remonstrances of his Ministers, almost to the very last moment. Being, however, very desirous of paying another visit to the Continent, iu a style more suited to his rank than the former one, he repeatedly urged the Earl of Liverpool and Lord Londonderry to provide him with the necessary funds. But the Premier was not to be moved, and his Noble Col- league was no less intractable; They both peremptorily refus- ed to cull upon the public for money to defray the expellees of the proposed visit, and by doing so, it is said, they both equally excited the displeasure of bis Majesty. The report adds, that the Marquis of Londonderry was particularly decisive in the terms of his refusal— so much so, that when the King pressed him on the subject the Noble Secretary replied,." I must now take leave to tell your Majesty, that it cannot he done— the thing is impossible." The answer was not to be forgotten ; his Majesty finding at. last that Scotland and not the Conti- nent must be bis destination, resolved, it is said, to punish the Minister, by forbidding him to accompany him to the North. I give you this statement just as it has reached me from a quarter in which I can place the strongest reliance; and I think you will ultimately find it to be correct, as to the main fact.— Morning Paper. The public expect of a Journalist, that he should com- municate the reports and conjectures which are at any time afloat respecting Ministerial successions, and we have therefore, more than once alluded to the different on ( tits ill circulation with regard to the changes to which the late vacancy will give rise. It is now confidently stated in certain quarters, that though the Duke of Wel- lington is to proceed to the Congress, Mr. Peel is to be Foreign Secretary, and that Lord Colchester is to receive the Home Department. The No Popery party will in this case, become all powerful m the Cabinet re- ceiving an addition to their number, while the other has suffered a diminution. We express no opinion respecting, the duration of such a Ministry, for it is difficult to see how any set of men should not be able to keep their places if thev choose. It is to receive, it is said, the strenuous support of - ftr. Bragge Bathurst, who ha. s expressed a determination to take a leading part in the House of Commons during the next Session 1 From the known sentiments of . Lord Liverpool, as to the im- portance of having Mr. Canning, it may be supposed that every exertion has been made bv him to overcome the repugnance existing in a certain high quarter to his appointment. The idea has, however, been some time abandoned — Morn. Citron. We understand that his Grace the Archbishop of York made an offer to receive the King at his Grace's By the ship Waterloo, arrived from Canton, letters to the 16th March hava been received. The good understanding between the Chinese and the English was then perfectly re- established. The factory returned to Canton on the 25th of February, and the season being then far advanced, every exertion was made to complete the cargoes, and dispatch the remaining ships. The Waterloo left China the Kith March, two days after the Charles Grant and Kellie Castle, which ships she came up with in the Straits of Sunda, and all three, without having sailed in company, anchored at St. Helena the 18th June. The Kellie Castle and the Grant were to sail from St. Helena on the 23d. Tilt- ships expected to fail from China within the fortnight succeeding the departure of the Waterloo, were in the following rotation : Bridgewater, Lowther Castle, Atlas, and General Kyd. Tiie Vansittart arrived in China on the 2d March, which ship, and the Scaleby Castle, were lying at Wampoa, and would probably be ready to sail for England by the middle of April. The East India Company's ship Atlas arrived in the Channel on the 20th inst. she sailed from China on 25th March, and from St. Helena the 3d Julv. Advices received by her confirm the loss of the Matilda, crew saved. THE LUTIN- E FI'. tc. ATE.— An answer has been re- ceived bv the Underwriters at Lloyd's ColFee House from the Dutch Government, which has excitedsome sur- prise. It regards the Lutine frigate, which, as has been stated iu the Newspapers, was long since wrecked on the coast of Holland, with half a million of specie on board, intended for Prussia. Not a soul survived, nor was it known what had become of the frigate until re- cently, when she was found buried in the sand, on the Dutch coast. The British Government, which'sent the specie as a subsidy to Prussia, insured at Lloyd's, and, in due course, received the money on proof of the loss. The insurers, therefore, or such of them as are alive, applied a short time since to the Dutch Government, for pcrmision to take the specie out of the wreck of the Lutine The answer obtained this day, though very courteous, is by no means satisfactory upon any ac- count : it is this— that as the Lutine was wrecked pend- ing a war with Holland, the property of course became Dutch, and no restoration can therefore be made. Had the disaster occurred when pcace existed, the Dutch Government would have been most ready to afford everv facility for the recovery of the specie from the wreck. MARKETS, S; c.

May it please your Majesty, We, your Majesty's dutiful and loyal subjects, the Bishops and Clei" v of the Scottish Episcopal Church, beg leave humbly to approach your Royal presence with expressions of our most heartfelt attachment and loyalty to your Majesty's sacred tcr- sori and Government. So many years have passed away since Scotland was honoured by the presence of its Sovereign, that to behold your Majesty in the Palace of the long line of our ancient Monarchs, your Majesty's Royal ancestors, is to us, as it must be to every true Scotsman, a matter of pride and ejthultation I and in this house, more especially, do we feel ourselves prompted by these emo- tions to declare, that within the wide compass of your Ma- jesty's dominions are no w here t. o be found hearts more loyal than those which beat in the breasts of the Scottish Episcopa- lian?.. , The devoted attachment uniformly displayed by the mem- bers of our Church to him whom they have considered as their legitimate Sovereign is so well kiuwn to your Majesty, that it would be waste of time to repeat it here ; and is, indeed, amply vouched by the lowly station which we. her Bishops, now hold in civil society. Your Majesty likewise knows that our reli- gious principles and forms of worship are the same with those of the Church of England, from which, indeed, We twice derived our Episcopacy, when it had been lost at home; and whilst we are sincerely grateful for the toleration of these princi- ples, and the free exercise of the rites of our worship, we feel that it is to your Majesty's gracious consideration, and that of your Royal Father, that our gratitude is in a peculiar manner duo. We would not ocCTtpV too much of your Majesty's time by protestations of our loyalty ; but we must beg leave solemnly to declare, in your Royal presence, that viewing ill your Ma- jesty's sacred person the lineal decendant of the Royal Family of Scotland, and the legitimate possessor of the British Throne, we feel to your Majesty that devoted attachment which our principles assure tis is due to our rightful Sovereign ; and that should evil days ever come upon your Majesty's Royal House ( which may God, of his infinite mercy, avert), the House of Brunswick will find that the Scottish Episcopalians are ready to endure for it as much as they have suffered for the House of Smart, and with heart- and hand to convince the world, that in their breasts a firm attachment to the religion of their fathers is inseparably combined with unshaken loyalty to their King. That your Majesty may long reign over a happy and united people, to maintain that peace and prosperity which the wisdom of your Majesty's councils and the vigour of your arms have, by the Providence of God, achieved for them, is the earnest prayer of your Majesty's most dutiful and loyal subjects. GEORGE HLEIG, Premier Bishop. ALEXANDER JOLLY, Bishop. DANIEL SAN'l) FORD, Bishop. J'ATfc. TORRY, Bishop. W. SKINNER, Bishop. DAVID LOW, Bishop. To which address his Majesty was pleased to return the following most gracious answer :— " I thank you for this dutiful andt loyal Address, and I re- ceive wilh the greatest satisfaction your affectionate Congratu- lations on my arrival in this part of my dominions, *• I have the fullest confidence in your faithful attachment to my Person and my Government; and you may rely on my protection^!' the civil and religious liberties of all classes of my subjects." After this ench member of the deputation had the honour to kiss his Majesty's hand. prcttve parades, atiil ttie spectators began to disperse.— Majesty's carnage wore tip, and lie leant bactc on the The Highlanders returned to Edinburgh with bagpipes seat, seemingly courting privacy.

Thus concluded this grand military spectacle, whic'li from beginning to end was one continued scene of bril- liancy and animation. The day was remarkably fine, a fid thousands of spectators, among whom were a num- ber of ladies id their gayest dresses, crowded the ground, winch was besides covered with numerous equipages of the most splendid description, forming altogether an as- semblage of objects 111 the highest degree graceful and pleasing. \ Besides the noblemert and gentlemen Comprising his Majesty s suite, were present, the Dukes of Montrose, Atholl, Hamilton, and Argyll; Marquis of Lothian ; Earls of Wemvss, Hopetoun, Mansfield, Rosslyn, Kiil- noul ; Lords Arbuthnot, Ravenswofth, Beresford, Dou- glas, Robert Kerr, Binning, Archibald Hamilton, Bel- haven, Bkntyre, Lvnedoch; Alderman Sir \ V, Curtis, besides many other gentlemen of rank and distinction. It is supposed that there could not be fewer than 30,000 spectators present; the number of carriages of every description was above 1000. GRAND CITY BANQUET. On Saturday, according to arrangements formerly announced, a splendid banquet was given to his Ma- jesty in the Parliament House, by the Lord Provost, Magistrates, and Council of the city. This room, which is of most magnificent dimensions, and celebrated for its fine fretted roof, was splendidly fitted up on this memorable occasion. At the upper end, where his Majesty was seated, was placcd aThair of state, with a splendid canopy of crimson velvet; above were the royal arms, and underneatk the letters G. li. tastefully encircled with a golden wreath. The wall opposite was ornamented with the city arms. The large Gothic windows on the west side were hung with crimson cur- tains, which softened the antique grandeur of the room with an air of modern magnificence ; and on the opposite side, at the doors and recesses, where the outer house judges usually hold their sittings, crimson moreen dra- peries, were tastefully disposed. The room was lighted with three large and magnificent crystal lustres running along, with three smaller lustres on each side ; and at the end where his Majesty was placed were hung four other gilded lustres. There was besides a profusion of light 011 the table. The guests might amount, as nearly as we could estimate, to about 300, including all the nobility and gentlemen of distinction at present in Edin- burgh— the judges ofthe different courts— the law officers, and other functionaries of the crown— the principal mili- tary and naval officers— the magistrates, elcrgy, and professors. They were all in full dress. They were dis- posed along the room in three long tables, at the end of which was a table in the form of a crescent for his Ma- jesty, elevated three steps above the general level ofthe room. The vacant space between it and the other tables was covered with scarlet cloth. His Majesty entered the room at about half- past six o'clock, the lnnd playing " God save the King," and Provdst and Magistrates, ( he Judge's of the Court of Session and Justiciary, and the Barons of ExCheriuer, had taken then' places in their official seats before his Ma4 jestv's arrival. O11 his Majesty s entrance, fife was feceived by the ministers and elders, arrayed in a line in front of the church iloor; Dr. Baird then hail the honour of attend- ing his Majesty from the doVfr, ant! showing the way to the Royal Seat, and we understand that ati interest- ing incident occurred in the progress. His Majesty hail 11 scaled packet in his hand— He inquired of Dr. Bnird where the tistial receptacle for the congregation deposit- ing their contributions was placed ; on being told bv the Reverend Principal that the usual receptacle had been removed for the time in order to avoid interruption to his Majesty's entrance, his Majesty appeared to regret this circumstance, and then putting the packet info' the Principal's hand, he desired that it might be applied with the rest of the collection, to the benefit of the poor.— The address of the packet thus graciously given, was as follows :—" One hundred pounds from his Majesty."— This was indeed joining most generously and devoutly alms with prayers'. His Majesty then took bin seat— w ith, amoiig other eminent persons of his suite, the Earl of Errol ( bearing the sword of state, on his right hand) and Lord Glenlvon, as Lord in Waiting, on his left. ' I hese remained standing during the service around the Royal Chair. Dr. Lamont, who, as Moderator of last General As- sembly, had been commanded to preach before the King, then gave out the first version ofthe 100th Psalm, which was finely chattnted by the band of singers. Altera very impressive praver, part of the ' 23d Pamprase, from the I'ith verse to the end, was ' sting. The Reverend Doctor having repeated the Lord's Praver, then preach- ed an eloquent ami animated discourse from Colossians iii. 3, 4. " For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God. When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ve also appear with him in glory."— After prayer, at the conclusion ofthe sermon, the first four verses of the 50th Paraphrase were sung, which concluded the service. His Majesty was very attentive during the whole ser- vice. He was dressed in a Field Marshal's uniform, and wore the Ribbon ofthe Order of the- Thistle. He returned to . his carriage by the same entrance at which he alighted, and immediately proceeded to Holyrood House, from whence, after stopping a short time, he set off for Dalkeith. PEERS' BALL. The ball given by the Scottish Peers in honour of his Majesty's visit took place last flight, and was attended bv all the rank, beauty, and fashion at present in the city. The company began to arrive at eight o'clock, and by half past nine the great ball room was completely filled, and presented a most' splendid appearance. The ladies were 111 the most elegant white dresses, many of tht* m richly bespangled, and had on plumes of white os- trich feathers. The gentlemen were in full court dresses. To the Addresses from the Universities of Scotland, presented on Monday, his Majesty was pleased to re- turn the following most gracious Answer :— " The testimonies of loyalty and attachment which are con- tained in your Addresses are very gratifying to my feelings. " I highly appreciate that excellent system of instruction • which is established in the Universities of Scotland, and which lias mainly contributed to form the character of a religious and enlightened people. " I feel assured that you will continue to promote the culti- vation of science and of sound learning, and to instil into the minds of the youth committed to vour care, those principles which, will lead them to form a correct estimate of the peculiar blessings we enjoy under our free and happy constitution." ADDRESS OF THE SCOTTISH EPISCOPAL CHUIiCII. After the deputations presenting the above addresses bad left the Roval presence, his Majesty descended from the Throne, and proceeded to the Royal Closet, into which were conducted bv the Lord in Waiting— The Right Reverend George Gleig, LI.. D. Primusthe GRANT) CAVALRY REVIEW. Friday forenooon the grand cavalry review took place 011 Portobello Sands, The different yeomanry corps assembled at their respective parades at nine o'clock, and about eleven the whole had taken up their positions on the Sands, and were shortly afterwards joined by the Greys, the 3d dragoon guards, and two pieces of artil- lery, accompanied by a squadron of the royal waggon train. On the pier a battery was formed of six pieces of cannon, with a detachment of artillerymen. About 12 o'clock, the whole corps, iu number above three thousand, were formed 111 line, in open order, w ith Ma- jor- General Sir Thomas Bradford, and his Staff in front, ready to receive his Majesty. On the right of the line were the Celtic Society, commanded bv Lieut.- General Graham Stirling, and Colonel David Stewart of Garth ; the clan M'Gregor, commanded by Sir E. M. M'Gre- gor, the Breadalbanes, under the command of Captain Campbell, along with the other bodies of Highlanders at present in Edinburgh, in all about three hundred.— These mountaineers were present in consequence ofthe special commands of his Majesty, notified through Gene- ral Grahame Stirling, and ColoheJ. Stewart. The approach of his Majesty was announced by the royal standard, which was hoisted 011 flits- battery at the quav, and his arrival was hailed by the loud acclamations I ofthe countless multitude assembled on the saiitfs, and I adjacent heights. About one o'clock the King arrived j on the sands in his travelling carriage and four, from which lie alighted, and was received by a numerous suite ; of officers. A royal salute was immediately fired by the j battery, which was answered by the cheers of the mul- j titude. His Majesty having mounted a grey charger, ; and being joined by Sir Thomas Bradford and his staff, . rode slowly along the line, preceded by a detachment of i the Grevs, the officers of different corps saluting as he j passed, and the bands and trumpets playing God save the King. The officers of the suite and staff being be- hind his Majesty, his person was distinctly seen bv the eager crowd as he rode along. On reaching the left, the cavalry being in open order, the King returned to the right between the open ranks, and appeared to sur- vey the different corps with great attention. His Ma- jesty then took his position in front of the centre of the line, in riding to which he necessarily approached nearer the crowd of spectators, who testified their satisfaction by loud cheering and waving of lints and handkerchiefs. To these testimonies of loyalty and affection, the King repeatedly replied by bowing and waving his hand. The cavalrv then wheeled by troops Into open columns, and Sir Thomas Bradford with his Staff, having taken his station at their head, the whole passed his Majesty in ordinary time, in the following order, the officers again saluting, and the troops lowering their flags :—• Band of the od Dragoon Guards. Major General Bradford and Staff. Two guns. Royal Waggon Train. Third Dragoon Guards. Glasgow troop of Volunteer Cavalry. Peeblesshire Yeomanry, Selkirkshire Yeomanry. Band of Scots Gilevs. Fifeshire troop of Lancers. Fifeshire Yeomanry Cavalry. Berwickshire ditto. East Lothian ditto. West Lothian ditto. Roxburghshire ditto. Mid Lothian ditto. Royal Scots Greys, commanded by. their Colonel, Gene- ral Sir James Stewart Denbolm of Coltness, Bart- After passing his Majesty, each troop closed ranks, and rode otS- Jf Ifftiick tijms-, when the whole again form- ed, advanced in line, and gave a general salute, the bands playing God save the King. • Sir Thomas Bradford then rode up uncovered to his Majesty, who, we understand, was graciously pleased to express his highest satisfaction with the general appearance, discipline, and steadiness of the various corps. The King shortly afterwards dismounted, and stood for soiiie minutes surveying the immense number of spec- tators 011 the heights, iwhose repeated checrings he again politely acknowledged; 111 the most gracious manner. His Majesty. then- entered his carriage, and drove offtro Dal- keith house under an escort of the Greys. The rhiv being remarkably fine, the royal carriage was let down at the top, and thousands had again the pleasure of be holdini; and cheering their Sovereign as he passed aldn'i. 0 0 n 1 & The various corps then left the ground for their res- the company standing up to receive him.

After dinner, water was brought to his Majesty in a silver bason hy Mr. llowison Crawford of Braebead and Crawford!, mil, who claims this privilege in right of the charter of his estate. In offering the bason, he knelt down to his Majesty, who acknowledged this service with his usual affability and grace. I11 this service, Masters Charles and Walter Scott, the one a son aud the other a nephew of Sir Walter, attended as pages. After dinner, Non Nobis Dom'tne was sung, when The Lord Provost rose and said, " I have the honour of proposing the health of bis Majesty, who has this day honoured us with bis presence, thereby con- ferring a signal mark of favour on his good town of Edinburgh, which will never, never be obliterated from the memory of the present generation " The toast was drank with three times three ; and the hall rung with the most enthusiastic plaudits. Song— God save the King. The toast was immediately announced by a flight of two rockets from the Parliament Square, followed al- most instantly by the thunder of a royal salute from the Castle, Calton hill, Salisbury Crags, and his Majesty's yacht in Leith Roads. His Majesty replied in liearlv the following terms i " My Lord Provost, my Lords and Gentlemen—" It is im- possible for me to expsess my feeling- on the present occasion ; and I should feel ashamed of myself were I not to consider this to be one of the proudest days of my life. I return you my warmest thanks for your kindness this day. and for the very flattering attention I have experienced from the citizens of Edinburgh ever sincc my ariival in Scotland. I shall ever re- member my reception among you ; and say with truth, with fervour, and sincerity, that I want words adequately to ex- press nly feelings." The Duke of York and the Army, and the Duke of Clarence and the Navy, were given with three times three in succession, the band playing the Duke of York's March and Rule Britannia. His Majesty then rose and gave— " The Lord I'rovost, Sir William Arhuthnot, Bart, and the Corporation cf the City of Edinburgh." Sir William Arbuthnot immediately knelt down and kissed his Majesty's hand, who raised him up. The toast was drank with loud applause.— Glee, Glorious Apollo. His Majesty then rose and said— Gentlemen— I shall give you a toast in which T trust von • will all join me. I shall simply give you the Chieftains aud Clans of Scotland, and God Bless the Land of Cakes." His Majesty retired a little before nine o'clock. He was attended to his carriage by the Lord Provost, the Peers, the Lords in Waiting, and other officers of his suite, and, bowing as he passed along to the different noblemen and gentlemen, he was loudly cheered. Upon the return ofthe Lord Provost be was loudly by a reel, which was succeeded by a country dance, both of which, from the spirit with winch they were executed, and the sprightly airs that were plaved, his Majesty seemed to witness with much pleasure, and frequently kept time to the notes of the music. His Majesty was most affable and polite to all within his observation, and in walking along the room in the most friendly manner, shook hands with many of the noblemen and gentlemen present, and also paid the most marked attention to seve- ral ladies, with whom he conversed for some time. The dancing of the reels appeared to give liiir most delight, as he stood nearly half an hour witnessing the agile and spirited movements of the different dances. A lady and a gentleman in a Highland dress danced a strathspey with much taste which his Majesty so greatly admired, that he clapped his hands in token of approbation. His Majesty remained for a few minutes past eleven, when he retired, and, entering his carriage, set off'for Dal- keith. A crowd was collected in front ofthe Assembly Rooms, who cheered his Majesty as he entered and re- tired from the rooms ; and in all the streets through which the royal carriage passed, it was loudly cheered by the people. CALEDONIAN HUNT BALL. The Ball given by the Caledonian Htlnt in honour of his Majesty's visit took place last night in the Assembly Rooms, and was numerous and splendid beyond till former precedent, filling, both ball rooms. At twenty minutes before ten o'clock the shouts ofthe populace an- nounced the arrival of the King, who entered the room amidst the salutations of the company, the bands playing " God save the King." His Majesty's demeanour was entirely divestedof state ceremony, evincing most striking- ly the ease of the polished gentleman. He shook hands with the Duke of Argyll, the Earl of Lauderdale, and the Duke of Montrose', and in a few minutes took his station a short distance from the centre of the room, without the cord. His Majesty was dressed in a Field Marshal's uniform, wearing the stars of his various Orders, and the cross of St. Andrew in his hat. Reels immediately commenced to the air of Breich Castle. His Majesty appeared highly delighted with the second sett, aud frequently chipped his hands in token of his approbation : Mr. Macdonald of Staffa and Mr. Murray of Abercairnie, were among these dancers, but the names of their partners we could not learn. In the next dance his Majesty gave one of the gentlemen a smart slap on the shoulder to " put life and metal in his bee's," which had the intended effect. The dance was kept up with equal spirit at the other end of the room, and in the second ball- room quadrilles were the order of the night. His Majesty never quitted his situation, conversing occasionally with Lord Melville and the Earl of Lauder- dale, and the Ladies who. were near him. Before his ar- rival a sofa had been placed for his accommodation, but he stood all the time he remained. Precisely at 11 o'clock applauded, and congratulated upon his new dignity. - j He then again gave " The King's Health ;" aud was j followed by the Duke of Hamilton, who proposed the } 1| 1S Majesty departed, bowing to the company with the health of " Sir Wm. Arbuthnot, Lord Provost of i n"? st condescending affability, the band playing " God Edinburgh," which was drank with three times three. A variety of national and well chosen toasts followed. His Majesty looked well and appeared cheerful. He conversed during the evening with the Earl of Erroll and the Lord Provost, who sat next him, and seemed to be highly gratified with his reception, and with the ardent demonstrations of duty and affection which he received j sons from the highly respectable company assembled around him. ATTENDANCE AT DIVINE SERVICE. Sunday forenoon the King attended divine service in the High Church, which was filled at an early hour, with a genteel audience. The streets from the Palace to the Church were of course much crowded, but so quiet and orderly were the people; - that children stood in the front without the smallest dan'oer, and, excepting a buz when it was known his Majesty was. approaching, there was not the slightest noise. This was as it should be, and highly becoming the national character. His Majesty and suite arrived in two carriages and six about twentv minutes past eleven, escorted by the yeomen of the guard, atni part of the Scots Greys. The glasses of his save the liing." \\ hilts his Majesty remained the room was excessively crowded. The company consisted of a great number of the Peerage of Scotland, Officers of every gradation of rank ill the Army and Navy, decorated with their various orders, and ninny literary and other distinguished per- Among the Naval and Military part of the As- sembly there were several who had lost an arm in . their country's service. The Ladies' dresses were more fanci- ful than at the Peers' Ball, when they were, with few exceptions, white; last night blue was much worn, and, as on the former occasion, a profusion of feathers.— Nothing could exceed the splendour of the circle, the great variety of rich costume producing an effect indes- cribably brilliant. In half an hour after his Majesty retired, countrv- dances commenced, which were kept up with spirit till seven o'clock this morning. The King intends honouring Viscount Melville with with a visit to- day ; the Mid Lotlwan Yeomaurv Cavalrv are ordered to be in attendance at Melville Castle. His Majesty is to attend the Theatre'in the evening. On Thursday he is to pay a visit to the Earl of Uupistoun, at ITopetoun House, from whence be wilt emtiart about two o'clock for England. The King's bodv guard, thrf Roval Company of ArcheM, are to embark at Newliavcil on Thursday morning., for Hopetouii House, to attend his Majesty* Saturday, ( one o'clock) tlie Regalia has just been re Conveyed to tlie Castle by the Knight Marischai, under" an escort ofthe Scots Greys and Celtic So'cietvi Amongst those who had the honour of dining \ t- iih th( i King on Wednesday wefe we understand, the Duke o{ BticCleuch, the Earls df Morton and Fife, Lord Mon- tagu, Lord Melville, and Sir Walter Scott.

A correspondent suggests tinrt, besides the equestrian statue of the King, about to be erected in this c'it'V, in commemoration of his Majesty's visit, som « way skouli be devised for recording the event in the private aiinala ( if the Royal Family. For this purpose he propose?, that a massive piece of gold plate, either in the form of' vase, cup, tureen, tit waiter, & 6. should be presented to his Majesty, and that the subscription for the funds necessary should be confined to those not higlicr in rank than a merchant, and the amount subscribed bv each rot to exceed one shilling. He proposes farther, that the privilege of subscribing should he allowed to all who'have been witnesses of his Majesty's visit, whether in town or country, and that the plate, bearing a suitable in- scription, should be executed by a Scottish workman. We are authorised to state, that the hereditary right of bearing the Crown of Scotland, at all Scottish processions, is claimed by Lord Douglas of Douglas, a. 1 weil as by the Duke of Hamilton, and that his Majesty has bcert graciously pleased to appoint the Duke to perform' the service on the present occasion of the Royal progress from the Pa'ace to the Castle, it being distinctly tinder-" stood that this appointment ij'uot, in any way, to pre- judice the claim that has been preferred by Lord Doifglat to his Majesty, which, as well us that of the Duke of Hamilton, have' been referred to a Committee of tho Privy Council *-(" « /.

It gives us sincere pleasure to hear, that Sir Willintri Knighton, Physician to the King, has sent to Dr.- Dim- can, by command of his Majesty, tbe sum of Fif'tv" Guineas to the Roval Public Dispensary for tbe city and county of Edinburgh ; a charity, which every year" afford s relief to thousands, who hatfe at once to strucrlti both with poverty and disease. His Majesty has been graciously pleased to transmit to the Treasurer ofthe Edinburgh Magdajeil Asykinr, by the hands of tbe Right Hon. the Lord Provost, Pre- sident ofthe Society, a donation of fifty guineas for thu benefit of that most useful institution. The Royal Infirmary of Edindut'gfi has, we under- stand, received a mark of royal favour, his Majesty having ordered a donation of two hundred guineas to hi} paid to the treasurer, in aid of the funds ofthe charitv. His Majesty has also sent a donation of one hundred guineas to the treasurer of the Lunatic Asylum, for the benefit of that institution. We understand that his Majesty, in tbe handsomest and most liberal manner, has sent a donation of one hundred guineas to the Society for the relief of the In- dustrious Blind of Scotland.

THE CHRONICLE. ABERDEEN SATURDAY, AUGUST 31, 1822. £ iiimu, UD of IJcltiifrt. HIS Majesty's visit to Scotland has certainly exhibit- ? rd the national character to great advantage, and must ; impress his mind with a very high opinion ottlie lower orders, the working classes, whom some of our public 1 speakers have not hesitated to call the rabble. During his Majesty's stay, nothing disorderly has occ'itred-—• very few crimes have been committed in the Metropolis, S dud these have been perpetrated bv notorious characters, j attracted from a distance by the prospect of plunder, in j the crowd and bustle occasioned by the presence of the ' Court. The London papers take notice of some ofthe > Scottish addrtsses as servile, particularly those of the , National Church and the Episcopal Clergy, and admit- ; ting tiie charge to lie not without foundation, these i • tournalists should bear in mind, the necessary conse- j nticncts of Patronage of the Church, vested in the State. Wherever ecclesiastical livings are in the gift of the him, now that subsidies are no longer to be had from Britain, and we con purchase neither victories nor for- beorancc. Who is to manage the House of Cortimoos appears to be yet undetermined, but Mr. PEEL IS men- tioned ; and, upon his Majesty's arrival, no time wiil lie lost in filling up a situation considered of at) much importance. The task of managing the Honourable House is dailv becoming rtlore diflicult, the country gentlemen, who long supported every ministerial mea- sure, at length are convinced of their error, and see the necessity of opposing the phalanx of Placemen and Pen- sioners, who are bound to do what they are bid. In fact, hianv of the country Gentlemen are now Reformers, as the great bodv of the people have long been, and a 1' eform nmst at no distant period take place, in what- ever mariner the measure may be opposed. Of this ne- cessity there is no doubt that the Marquis of I. ONDOSF- DEIIRY was well avare ; and it is to be lamented that, oil this subject, the truth has been Concealed from his Majesty, who probably still believes, that all who espouse the cause of Reform are discontented, and even disaf- fected to the Constitution and Government of their coun- try. Indeed, the sycophants of Courts all over Elirope wish to impress their Sovereigns with the idea, that a conspiracy exists against all'constitutcd authorities, and tire clamorous for the enactment of new laws to fetter the press, and restrain the liberties of the people. For inanv months we heard much of the treasons and plots of General BEKTON— his seducing troops from their alle- giance attd administering oaths ofthe most treasonable nature. At length, this Arch Rebel was apprehend- ed, and the proceedings against him and his alledged accomplices are such, and the evidence so contemptibly ridiculous, that even the ultras, the devoted slaves of legitimacy, cannot refrain from laughter. " The French papers of I'hursdnyawd Friday, ( wc quote the Traveller of the ' 26th itist.) have arrived ; We entreat our readers to attend to the examination of the parties accused of the conspiracy at La Rochelle. iu order to form a correct tuition of. the substance of the v. iguc and bom- bastic insinuations of general conspiracy which the Ultras are propagating with a view to carry strong measures through Ihe ngencv of alarm. We quote the following extract from the private correspondence of the Bourbon Paper of this morning, as being tolerably illustrative of the process : — •< What is most afficling, and from which the worst conse- quences are to be apprehended, i's — that France at this moment is covered with Secret Societies, whose lenders still contrive to escape detection ; and to such an extent is this carried, that nothing can derange the operations of the C. irbonari arid Descamisados, so that by day and by night, it is indisputable that conspiracies ate carried on against' the Government. It is impossible to save ourselves from this new species of attack, exe pt by laying the, foundation of powerful institutions, aud rallying round the monarchy men who ' ire devoted to it.' We know what this class of writers mean by *• powe stitutions," and happily so do'the French people. It would have been kind in our Ministers, after such first rate performers as Castles, Oliver, and Edwards were in this country, fundi officio, to have sent them - over to instruct the French Statesmen how to get up plots that might have some appearance of probability, and scud some credulous creatures to the scdllbld. rful ill- American papers to the 4th inst. supply several do- cuments from the Rio Janeiro Papers to June 20, from which it appears that a General - Constituent and Legis- lative Assembly composed ofthe Deputies ofthe different provinces, was to be convoked immediately. An Ad- dress from the Prince Regent to the Representatives resident in Rio, in giving expression of this intention, and of the necessity of such an Assembly to take into was condemned, and try lus assistance a Harouelic was borrow- ed, in hopes of its being thrown open in some procession. The painter set to work upon it, harness was borrowed, a hamm* r cloth put in livery. John Home dispatched by tile ( Strain boat with " the vivers," and an'admiring multitude at the cpachmakcr s gave dreadful note of preparation for to- morrow. 1' TIIB DEPAHfURE AND ARRIVAL AT EnltfBUltftH. The borrowed plumes are now in view, the Town's Officers with their liveries and laced hats, and the Deputation with laughing faces, two at. a window, bowing graciously to the Crowd. When they got out of triwh. they began to consider whether his Majesty could possibly see or kuotv, that a coach with four hors « s, four cats without, and four —— within, were on the Stonehive road out of respect to him ; but this was thought a curious view ofthe case. The necessary stoppages were made, ami ( not to be tedious) John Home throws open the door of the Edinburgh mansion ofthe town of Aberdeen— welt- onies his constituents— and. with the Assistance of what he had got. under his dharge, wo* s them* to repose. THE STAY IN EDI N'BIIIU; II THE LEVEE AND THE ILLUMINATIONS. Perth, Dundee, and Aberdeen, had alternate jollifications — claret to the throat; and in the intervals of sleeping and eating, the rational arrangements about coat buttons, buckles, and bag wigs, were faithfully attended to. At length, after a week's preparation comes the Levee- day; and upon the King's own authority, that he gave them but four seconds a- piece. wc venture 10 contradict.' that he asked, if the Hum of Cults would supply the town with w iter, aud how many fi- h the Bon Accord had.

His Majesty, its. well as his Royal Father, have been unfortunate in their advisers, and their wars; although victories have been obtained, they have not proved advantageous to the country. The J- iovereioh has seen nothing in Scotland but magnificence, and the appearance of happiness and plenty ; but, from the experience of his last year's visit to Ireland, he must lie aware, that appearances upon such occasions are extremely fallacious. Of the loyalty of the Scots, and their anxiety to pav dutiful respect to tiie first Magistrate of the State, . he cannot entertain a doubt ; and here- after, should reports of plots and insurrections among ihe people of Scotland be revived, he will, we trust, be • disposed to receive tlis m with due caution. He appears to have enjoyed the representation of our National Drama, Rob Roy, at the Theatre on Tuesday evening, vcrv much indeed.

Her Ladyship was the third daughter of the Hon. Sir Jatnes Mac- kintosh, Knight, M. P. Pome time has now elapsed since there has been a pause to conjectures, concerning the probability of war lietween Pnssia and Turkey. It was given out that the Ilolv Alliance had prevailed upon the Emperor ALEX- a NDERto forenothe favourable opportunity of subverting the Turkish Empire, upon the plea, that as a conspiracy exists over all Europe against legitimate Governments, the commencement of hostilities in the East might endan- ger the repose of the Continent and lead to consequences the most disastrous. The inactivity of the Russian armies, and the return of some battalions of guards to the capital, seemed to confirm this report; and it was even said, that the Emperor would no longer counten- ance the cause of the Greeks in'their struggle for liberty. That our Government wished to prevent any serious at- tack upon the Turkish power is well understood, and our cruizers iu the Mediterranean had orders to pay no regard to the blockade of the. Turkish ports by the ( i fecks, but to protect a free trade," as if no such blockade had been declared. The Greeks, however, have fought their own battles with the most licroic gallantry, and the Morea is now completely in their possession ; and having destroyed several of the Turkish ships, now hold the rcr. ra'rndei- of the fleet fully in check. At length also, we hear of the equipment of a Russian fleet in the llkick Sea, fourteen si. il of the line being, by the last accounts, preparing for sea at Sebastapol, for the pro- tection, as we are informed, of the Greek trade. The plot, therefore, thickens apace, for it is not to be cre- dited, ' that the Russian armaments by sea and land have no specific object; or that the councils of ALEXANDER art' s<> vacillating as tlie ministerial Journals would have us Irelieve. It is said, and it appears not improbable, that the Dr. keof WELLINGTON is to attend Congress in tise place of Lord LONDONDERRY; and we shall see what influence the Russiau Emperor is - disposed to allow THE IIOYAL VISIT. The Deputation from our Magistracy, which was sent to wait upon the King, returned here last Saturday, after doing duty at Court with bag vvig. buckles, sword, and so forth. Like the Glasgow boddies, we believe, they have reason to complain of the Northern Areopajgites ; indeed, our Deputa- tions to Edinburgh seem doomed to meet with mortifications, whether they be sent, to the Convention of Royal Burghs or to a Royal Levee. Our Town's Recorder was not there, and upon that account, there is reason to fear, that the Council Books will be deficient in proper materials for some future annalist to record the adventures of this journey. We have been assisted by a ( Usiinguiskable Historian ofthe City, to put Into shape the following short account of it; and when we con- sider the magnitude of the occasion, and the effects which it is likely to produce— uroN THE BKJIIGE or DON— we may hope to see rbis reprinted, with the proceedings of the Town's Trustees, in some continuation of THE.

One capital lot of stotsfro- n Beaufort brought L. 7 I 5s. each. This was the highest price obtained. The market j was well attended by Dealers." " j There were very few black cattle in the Brecbin Lammas fair . last Thursday, owing, no doubt, to the commencement of j harvest ; the supply, however, was greatly beyond the demand, j as no South country buyers attended. A few cattle, sold to ; one fre- ighbour, and- a few bought from another, was all the business done, of course the market was uncommonly dull.— The show of horses on Friday was likewise very indifferent, and scarcely any sales were effected. P 0 S T S C R i P i. LONDON, Aug. 27. A considerable difference in opinion is said to esisfc amongst his Majesty's' Ministers on the subject of a successor to the late Marquis of Londonderry, both as the representative of Eng- land in the approaching Congress, and as Manager of the House of Commons. Lord' Liverpool warmly espouses the interests of the Hon. Frederick Robinson, Treasurer oftii ® Navy, for the former appointment, from a conviction tfiat he must have acquired a knowledge of the tactics requisite to form a Member of the Holy A Usance, having been bred in the school of Castlereagh, and acted as his Secretary and principal adviser whilst the Noble L'vrd followed the armies towards tbe of the Continental War. The highest patronage in the S'ate, however, opposes Lord Liverpool, and as is usual with a Ca- binet so constituted as the present, bis irdiuenee must, prevail in enforcing the claims of the Duke of Wellington for this, dignified mission. Mr. X^ anta is likely'enough to accompany the Noble Duke. Lieutenant- General Lord Combermere is menti'vm- d as likely to succeed the late Sir S. Auclinsuty in the c^ Kmwar. d of army in Ireland, We are sorry to state that the typhus fever has re- apj^ earoJ, and is spreading with rapidity.

The Lord Provost having received notice of his Majesty's gracious intention of coming among his northern subjects, a Council was called, ( not fortuitously assembled as at Hervie) and after due deftberatiou on the necessity of some of the Cor- poration proceeding to Edinburgh, to throw themselves at bis Majesty's feet, the song of i go and a' go" was sung— the Deputation appointed— the proper Officer was ordered to write an Address— and the Council separated with forebodings of many heart- burnings before they should meet again— and thoughts of Knighthood and Honour. The proper Officer proceeded to his part of the task, ami after consulting a Pharmacopeia of Addresses, Ittisn EDITION, produced a proper compound of love, joy. and veneration, in which, dated the 6th of August, his Majesty was welcomed with bursts of joy from all elasses of his subjects, when he was only thinking Academy" of Music at Bologna, about setting out. The Burgh of Kintore would f » in have had S an honorary Member of a copy of it. The proper Officer considered all along, that he was to accompany the deputation, but this was a mistake. It is said, that fie shewed himself fully charged with precedents for his expectations, aud even quoted from a play book, a Speech for the Provost.

Thousands of anxious cspectasiis were of course con pelled to retire disappointed. The box- door was opened at half past six, and, long be- fore his Majesty arrival, the three tiers of boxes were filled, chiefly with hidies in full dress. The Lord Provost, with ladies Arbufcf- mot mid a large party of ladies, satin the box opposite to tlve King's— His Lordship was loudly cheered on entering, as were" also Sir David Baird, Sir Walter Scott, Colonel Stew- artof Ga- rtb, and several other distinguished individuals. The pit was cfrt principally with gentlemen, and the company in the galleries seemed all iu their best attire. The box appropriated for his Majesty and bis snite occupied the space ofthe two boxes on the right of the sta- ge.

The King on this occasion !'• eked exceedingly well, fie took his seat in a magnificent chair of state, pkcel in the centre of the box. At each side amkbehind hi- m, stand- ing. were ihe Dukes of Montrose, Argyle, and. Dorset, the Marquis of Winchester, the Earls of Fife, C& theait^ and Er- rol, Lord Charles Behtinck, Lord { jflenlyon, ami, I^ oril Grave*, with Sir William Keppell, and others of has equerries- The Duke of Argj'Je and the Earl of File wore tire iltghlamSl garb. His entrance was hailed with enthusiastic cheering and waving of hats and handkerchiefs, which bis Majesty appeared deeply to feel, and acknowledged with kindness and condes- cension. At the same inomcnt the curtain drew up, ax> d dis- played the whole performers ranged in front of tiie stage, wba sung the King's anthem, with the following additional ver^ and were heartily joined by many of the audience- Bright beams are soon o'ercasl, Soon our brief hour is past, Losing our King, Iloncur'd, lx.\' oved, and dear, Still shall his paning ear Our latest accents hear, God save the King ! At the conclusion of the anthem, the cheers were agato loud and universal, and thesebaving subsided, the play, wiricft was Hub Hoy,' then commenced. The only departure from the usual arrangement of characters was in that of Diana Ver- non, who was on this occasion represented by Mrs. H. Siddons, His Majesty paid great attention to the performance through- out, and frequently applauded by clapping bis bauds. Mrs. H. Siddons, and Mrs. Iteuaud, were particularly favoured with the Royal approbation, as was Mr. Iluckel in tLe songof " The red, red rose. 1' The King appeared highly diverted with IVIackay's representation of die Bailie, at whose humour he frequently laughed heartily. In particular, " where the Bailie, advising Captain Thornton not to put too much trust iu the Highlanders, says, 41 they may quarrel among themstels now and then, and gie ane aniiher a stab wi'a dirk, or rx slash wT a Claymore j but tak* my word for't, they're aye sure to join in the lang run against a' them that hue jmrses in their pockets, and breeks on their hinder- ends," the King laughed immoderately. With the music of the old Scotch melodies also hh Majesty appeared to be highly delighted, fre- quently beating time. Nothing occurs in the play which could in any way be road is to apply to the Royal presence; knit on several occasions, where the Bailie compliments the Duke of Argj le, the audi- ence quickly seized the sentiment, aud loudly cheered the des- cendant of the great Mach Callaiumor, who was in the bos with his Royal Master. Between the acts his Majesty conversed very freely with his attendants and particularly with ihe Duke of Argyle, who stood near him on ( he right. At the conclusion of the play, " God save the King" was again sung by the performers, and joined in by the audience, the King'standing as before. Iiis Majesty then retired* amidst most enthusiastic tokens of affection, drsplayed iaevevy possible way. In passing through the lobbies to his carnage, his Majesty was graciously pleased to all Mr. Murray beforehim, and expressed bis great satisfaction with the wbole perforuvaoce, and his pleasure at again seeing Mrs. Henly Siddons. At the same period, the Duke oi' Montvose, aW all the other members of his Majesty's suite, expressed their surprise at thti elegance of the preparations made for his Majesty's reception, where, from the size of the Tlu- atre, so lit lie had Wen expect- ed. They were also extremely pleased wi. h the intereor de- coration of the house itself. Al> out eleven o'clock his Majesty entered ^ liis carriage, ami amidst the huzaas ofthe multitude, returned to Dulkuh Pa- lace, attended by his u ual escort. ( FROM THE OBSERVER.) Th1?* King will leave Dalkeith Palace this TBorning at tea o'clock, and proceed to Iiopetoun House. His Majesty wftl change hordes, and probably stop for a short time at Ravelston, the seat of Sir Alex. Keiih, the Knight Md* ischalr where thy Marischal's Highland guard will he in readiness to receive the King. A large party of Noblemen and Gentlemen ar ® invited to meet the King, at Hopetoun House. The West Lothian Yeomanry Cavalry will be in attendance at Hope toon House, as also the Royal company of Archers. The Royal company meet at the Physicians Hull at six this morning, and proceed to Hopetoun House by a steam- boat. We understand that His Majesty intends to confer the honour of Knighthood to- morrow ; but we think it not right to men- tion on whose shoulders that honour will fall. His Majesty was expected to have \ isited the College yes- terday privately ; but it was thought right not to mention his iuiention, as well to prevent the people from being disappoint- ed, as not to collect a crowd wheu his Majesty wished to be private. His Majesty will embark this day about two o'clock, so as to take advantage ofthe tide. In proceeding to Lord Hope- toun's he will pass through Dalpieny park. We understand that Lord Rosberry has made preparations to receive his Majesty, in case his Lordship should be honoured with a visit as he passes through. We understand that his Majesty intends to leave a kappy re- membrancer behind him in Scotland. We are requested ti> slate, that there is no foundation for the report set abroad that a serious misunderstanding between our Magistrates and the Magistrates of Edinburgh, had arisen during Jhe vi-, it ofthe formec to tfye metropolis t, o/ welcome t; ie K, ing. — Glasgow Conner,.
