' .The entrance of her Majesty the Empress last Mon day was to magnificent. and brilliant, thataien the oldest inhabitants 'of Vienna, who remember the 'splendid entry of the Empress Maria Theresa,' cos fess they never sawsany thing equal to It. The Grandees of the Austrian Monarchy ennui lated each other in the splendour of their state car. •• brand liveries, so that the train of the great No; y li wbich preceded her Majesty made an-Metres /Ale fine appearance; but the state coach of ,the Empress herself 'esceedad all the rest. The finest antomoat 'weather inwored the 00140 *icy, an incredible - crowd thronged the streets, sad sot the smalleit accident occurred. • His Majesty the Emperor saw the' entrance of his consort incognito, and then drive by a back way to 'the church. at the door of which be Deceived her, rind accompanied her. to thanker. As soon as the enaniagaceremuny was over. Field-RITMO Count Walmoden was east to Menich, to convey the joyful Wren to the Court of SiVaria. The procession of their Majesties ind,of the Arch slakes and Archduchesses to the Palace, waa.likewiso a very fine sight; but all was exceeded by thadraw. lekroom. at which about SOO Ladies, and more Gentlemen, all in the richest dresses, kissed the bald if tier Majesty the Empress, and were received in the most gracious manner. At the entertainment in the Saloon of the Rednuo, vie observed only the Princes and Princesses of the blood. Prince Leopold of Naples, and his Consort the Arch-Duchess Clementine, and thiyostag Prince of Parma and Duke Albert of Sao Teschen, were in the gallery as spectators. All those who have bad the good I. 'tune to be presented to her Majesty are-de litshted with her amiable and gracrlal manners. On this day our good Monarch was obsetwed to be re markably cheerful, Who. on this occasion, dried the teats so many poor people by ample donations.

Since writing the above, we have learnt, that Pers. toe, the nun whose name was hated to the infAnsons hand-bills which have been in such general circula tion as Secretary, was apprehended this morning at his lodgings in Greystoke Place, Fetteraaaerby Decade the Marshal's man. He admits his intimacy with the two Maar" itc. but denied soy participation in the outrages committed by the insurgents. 'He holds a very high tone, and speaks with great cool dente of the support which his party were likely to receive, from every, even the meet emote, town and village in the kingdom.

A Mail from Holland arrived today. bringing us Dutch Papers to the Ist instant. They tonight some singular intelligence from the Netherlands. *Web we presume the Brussels papers dare not publish`. Inflammatory wricingtftre, It teems, in cfreeladdit,' tending to encourage the prospest of a Revolution . in France, and stating, that the Bavarianand Prus• sian contingents were about to be removed from the Belgian territory. We fear the spirit of the inhabitants of Belgium is not good : they have not yet been purged from the taint of disaffection to all regular Governments, which their French neighbours have given them ; but as to a Revolution, we apprehend they are not so mad as to attempt it in the face of so many armed nations. Cruizers, or rather pirates, with the Morocco Bag, have captured some Dutch vessels in the Mediterra nean. Is this to be endured ?—ls it to be endured, that, in the present exhausted state of the finances of civilized Europe, the Dutch and the British nations are to be at the enormous expense of keeping up a naval armament in the Mediterranean to repress the piracies of these African freebooters ? The Deys of Algiers, Tunis, and the Blackamoor who calls him. self Emperor of Morocco, seem positively determined to play the old roguish game of fast, and loose" with the States of Europe. No sooner has the Dey of Atoms blubbered out his affected sorrow for the past, and renounced his cards, than his tawny brethren' take them up, and pisy them for him. We observe, the Dutch Admiral, who seconded Lord EXIIfOUTH se nobly, is gone after this Bashaw sf Three Tails.: He cannot be is better hands, and we hire he will exchange his Dutch metal for Barbary gold dust. M USSELS, 'NOVEMBER SS. The nunsbeit of persons now employed on the for tifications of Namur, Charleroi, Mons, and Toils nay, is from sisteen to eighteen thousand men. In the cities, all persons out of their work are employed on works of public utility. By this wise and humane measure, it is hoped to check, as far as possible,. the increase of poverty and distress. . The Duke of Wellington has been prevented, by the receipt of various dispatches, frons leaving Cam 'bray. His Lordship continues to take measures for supplying, his troops with provisions.

Capt. 0; L. de ` Rauh from Lisboa .to! Embden. The first was lambed into Sallee, and the two last into Lambe. (Vice-Admiral Capetian has es,embled his squadroa, consisting of two ships of the line, a frigate, abd a brig, off Tangier, to de nand satisfaction for this affront.) •Nom•imfastm Yesterday we briefly noticed the arrival of French Papers and the partial triumph of the Opposition oti ultra Royalist party against the Mipisten s that triumph was indeed but partial, for although the latter were compelled to produce certain papers called for, the Chamber passed to the Order of the Day on the main question, namely, that of granting some relief from the grievous load of oppression which the blitiister of Police had thrown on the unfortunate family of ROBERT. The father and son therefore re main in the prison of La Force for an indefinite pe riod, without any chance of being brought to trial, subject to all the horrors of secret detention, which Englishmen, who have been so unfortunate as to in. cur the displeasure of the French Police, have some times suffered, and have pathetically described. We fear that the unction given by the new Chamber of Deputies to this arbitrary act, will not obtain them the reputation of being schooled in the principles of civil. liberty. It is no answer to this violation of the principles of reason and justice to say, that the law by which the ROBBRTS are punished, was made by their own party, when in power.-. This merely proves, what we always knew, that the Ultra Royalists were its and blockheads; but this conduct of the new Chamber stews, that when airy call themselves Cautitiaiewatists and Chartists, they are giving themselves a nickname. The lan. guage of the French Charter, on the subject of per. sonal liberty, is as plain and intelligible as that of our far.famed Magna aarta and Bill of Rights; and we do not wonder now that the Kiwo, whose sagacity and foresight were never doubted, dismissed that Chamber, whose exaggerated ideas were leading them• to demol;sh the barriers of liberty, one by one : of this spirit, the law which persecutes their favourite Journalist 'is a melancholy proof. The best thing the French. Ministers can now do is to give the Ro. nears a trial. The loss which he has sustained by the stoppage' of his Journal and the seizure of his . . --- printing materials ought to be made good to him, whether he is innocent or guilty. There can be no civil liberty if there be no liberty of the Press. The Private Letters from Paris state that mobs are frequent in the Provinces from the scarcity of provisions. His Royal Highness the Plume ltroari• has issued his commands, that during his stay at Brighton not an article of any sort of provisions in his establish. meat should be wasted, but that the cold meat, soups, load, &c. not required for the Palace con sumption, should carefully be preserved, and thrice a week,. at least, distributed to the poor. To render this noble instance of charitable beneficence.the mone• effective, the largest families in the place, and those existing on Ole slenderest MIMS, have. been searched fir and ascertained, end to the mother; and principal; salmons of these, tickets have been given to justify the applications mad meet certain orlief on the etenil days. This plan was commenced on Tuesday, and numerous were the mothers and widows - with large families who retired from the Royal residence with their aprons and baskets and pitchers filled. The LOUD MAYOR and Court of Aldernsim have, with great propriety, p u bli s h e d two R esolutions; th e sue giiing thanks to the inhabitants who se readily came forward to put down, the horrid and alarming' riots of Monday ; _and the• other offering rewards for the apprehension of the assassin who shot Mr. PLATT, end of the robbers who plundered the shops of Messrs:: BRCRWLTII, RSA, and Banunan.
