They relate, Ist, To las es.:ahlisimeat of a free commercial communica tion araang the German States ; 9:1 1 To the free Na -.* of the Hirers of Germany ; 3d, To the pro of t':e mar:iime commerce of Germany Braes.

The Spanish Authorities had, ten sre, directed tha restitution of the Hydra, being found on board which could war unjustifiable conduct of the Commander squadron in detaining her. It appears that )yalist cruizess are on the same footing as ed armed vessels of this country used to be, )fficered and manned by the Government of nit fitted out by individuals, who speculate most distant chances of condemnation, and every trader that comes in their way to the !ratious detentions. The voyages of several whalers have last season been completely de by this sort of interference. Commodore . has, we are happy to learn, been particu active in his remonstrances to the Spanish Go it, and we trust he will be adequately se by the Authorities at home, who ought not the free trade of our Merchants to be thus ly invaded. ,anders Mail has brought us this morning Papers to the 9th instant.

TJis QUEEN The inquiries yesterday after the state of her MA issyr, at the Palace, were very numerous. The answer to them was—' The QUEEN has had a com fortable night, and is much better to-day." In the evening her MAJESY rode out in the garden for up wards of an hour, accompanied by the Duchess of GLOUCESTER and the Princess AvousTA. THE PRINCE REGENT'S COURT, 4c. Yesterday at twelte o'clock, his Royal Highness the PRINCE REGENT held a Court at Carlton House, which was attended by—the Archbishop of CANTER BURY, the LORD PRESIDENT of the Couricm, the LORD PRIVY SEAL, the FIRST LORD of the TREA- T,URY, the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER, the MASTER-GENERAL Of the ORDNANCE, the CHAN CELLOR of the DUCHY Of LANCASTER, the SECRE TARY of STATE for the HOME DEPARTMENT, the PRESIDENT of the BOARD of CONTROL, the Great Officers of State, dtc. The REGear gave audiences to the Earl of HAR ROWE'S'', Viscount &W.W.II', aCC. His Royal Highness held a Privy Council, at which the immediate Dissolution of Parliament was agreed upon. Viscount CUSTWYND attended, as Clerk of the Council. Arrangements were made for the REGENT going in State to the House of Peers to do e the Session of Parliament. The King's, the Queen's, and the Tilt yard Guards mounted duty in the morning, in white gaiters, &c. The Crown was removed from the Tower of Lon don to the House of Peers. The streets from the Horse Guards to the Parliament House were covered with gravel. The State Attendants were assembled at St. James's Palace, soon after one o'clock. The PRINCE REGENT arrived in his private car riage' at St. James's Palace, from Carlton House, 'soon after half-past one o'clock. The different state rooms were filled with persons respectably dressed, to see his Royal Highness pass with his attendants. His Royal Highness was received by the Lord Steward of the Household, Lord AMHERST, as Lord in Waiting; Sir JOHN CRADDOCK, Groom in Wait ing; the Master of the Horse; Sir WILLIAM KEPPEL, as Master of the Robes ; the Comptroller of the Household, the Treasurer of the Household, the State Page, the Page of Honour (Master GREAVES) ; Gold Stick (Earl 11-lAnniNcrom); Silver Stick (Colonel Macs); the Captain of the Yeomen of the Guard, four Gentlemen Ushers, the Clerk Marshal, &c. There were four carriages and six, one with a set of beautiful black horses, and three with bays, aR decorated with crimson ribbons. The eight beautiful cream-coloured horses were decorated on their manes ' and harness with light blue ribbons. The PRINCE REGENT wore a Field Marshal's uniform, decorated with his numerous Orders. He was attended in the state carriage by the Duke of MONTROSE, as Master of the Horse, and Lord AMHERST, as the Lord in Waiting. The. REGENT began to move out of the Palace yard exactly at a quarter before two o'clock, saluted by the Band of the Guard playing God save the King," and the sound of trumpets. The weather being remarkably fine, as great a concourse.of people were assembled as we recollect on any similar oc casion, especially under the circumstance of the shortness of the notice when it was to take place, which rendered the procession particularly splendid, and it was enlivened by the females in the gardens, Park, at the windows of the houses, curtseying, and the waving of hats and ltuzzaing of the men in the Park and the streets. His Royal Highness entered the House cf . Peers at six minutes after two o'clock, which was announced by a Royal salute of cannon. His Royal Highness returned from the House and entered the State car riage at 25 minutes before three o'clock, and the pro cession returned to St. James's Palace in the same order as it went, and was generally cheered by the populace. The REGENT arri•ed at the Palace at three o'clock. His Royal Highness evidently ap peared to suffer extremely from the oppressive heat of the day, but we were happy to observe he appeared in very good health and spirits. The House of Lords, above the Bar, was yesterday crowded with Ladies, in number beyond any former precedent. Among them woe many beautiful and superbly dressed women. The Duke and Duchess 01 CAMBRIDGE, in full dress, with their attendants, were present. His Royal Highness, as before, sat at one extremity of the Woolsack; the Grand Dqlce MiciinEL and suite were also present. These illustrious Per sonages were considered as the principal point of at traction. The State Procession of the PRINc-.: RE cif:sr, on coming down to and returning from the House of Lords, was extraordinarily magnificent. An article from Ilanover mentions that the P..lace of Furstenhof, in that city, is preparing tor the re ception of the Duke of CLAttexce and his intended Consort. The Duke of Dzvossasaa has arrived a: Brussels from Paris. yesterday a Court of Directors was held at th e East India House, when JOSEPH DART, Esq. was al.- pointed Secretary to the Company, and sworn into that office. PETER Aenen, Esq. Chief Clerk, was appointed Assistant Secretary, and also sworn. DRURY-LANE THEATRE.—IL was yesterday deter mined to close this Theatre till Monday, when it is to be re-opened for the Benefits of the Performers (save only One night when the Duke and Duchess of CAMBRIDGE Flea to honour it with their presence) till the 30th inst. when it closes fur the season. MEMOIRS OF LUCIEN BONAPARTI4-.-M. PELTIER, in his " Afti i‘u," strongly corroborates the opinion already given of these Interesting Memoirs. He observes that they are intitled in every respect to be dis tinguished from the mass of secret histories, so called, which have hitherto appeared respecting the family of Bonaparte. They can only have been wrineat by a confidential Secretary, by one who has folluwed the steps and witnessed the actions of Lucien for four aau twenty years, and who now openly exhibits him to public view. A Nobleman who figured a little in the Revolu tion, and who enjuyx a Elzh distinction in the career of Art, hap pened to be in Lontioa during the printing of the Work, and as he had been intimately connected with the individual in question, he was consulted respecting their authenticity by the English Editor. He acknowledged their veracity. with the exception of some rectificatirma, which he ass made to certain Anecdotes, and some facts which be Sias added in a Letter addressed to the Editor, and which is printed at the end of the Volume. This Appendix gives to the Work a double seal of authenticity: the Reader rill find a g reat fund of curious Anecdote, and the His torian rich inatszia, for tae annals of the Revolution.

From a Ce . lp'on Government Gazette of the '3lst of January, we have extracted, in another column, some rather distressing information as to the state of mat ters in that country. It is panful to think that the dominion we have acquired over it can only be main tained by having recourse .to such severities as are here authentically recorded. The following extract of a letter from St. Domingo evinces that the commercial intercourse with that Island is fettered by some injudicious regulations:- -lACNIEL, APRIL 11. " In their new Patent Law which they have made, wishing to give as much business as they can to their own Citizens, they have decreed that no Foreigner can sell to another; by which Mr. 1). who had sold 35,000 dollars worth of goods to Mr. S. has had them confiscated : and there is now an order from the new President to sell these goods at public auc tion, which will cause great detriment to the regular trade of this town ; and it is peculiarly hard on Mr. D. as the President Petion gave us two letters expla natory of the Patent Law, by which we all supposed that we could tialgc with each othir - , as heretofore, by merely paying twelve hundred, instead of one thousand, dollars for the permission. . All these new laws and regulations are made by the Senators and Representatives ; the Constitution has not given even a veto to the President, who has merely to sign the lavis, and order them to be pu► execution, by which all the odium rests on his shoulders. It it supposed that Presider.t Petion, after having taken the oath to observe the Constitution which he had himself given them, became so sensible of this oversight, and so disgusted at constantly hay , ing to contend with notions of equity at variance with his own, that he formed the resolution of be coming the victim to his own principles of rectitude, and starved himself to death. " From the turn commerce has now taken, ship ments will now take twelve months to wind up, which is different to what you have been accustomed to in war-time. I still believe, from the best observa tion I am able to make, that the commerce of thi country is better than that of any of the Colonies round us." A Private Letter from Madrid. dated 25th May, says The political and financial situation of l Spain is so embarrassed, that, unless it were observed on the spot, no idea could be formed of it, and any representation that could be made would fall short of the truth. Every where are complaints heard— every where distress shews itself 'in the most hideous aspect. All the public coffers are empty. Thi Army has not received its pay for three years, am the Officers of the Civil Administration have not touched the eighth part of their salaries. There ha! been witnessed at Madrid Officers and Civil Servant of the Public begging alms ; and the Provinc4. have even suffered more than the Capital. Every dispatch of General Morino concludes with d mands of reinforcements, and supplies of eves, kind. It is but too certain, that his army labours under the most frightful privations." und• • 1 lilifloiiiii iiiii'Ai OF. lifielifialY: :.. . ~ Tuesday; the interesting t ettsiOni . dt liyiiii ,ili a , . , , ftnindition-stone of a Wilding .for the .E cation oa f 400 Children, on the National System of Edutatam; . •. took place at Stockwell, in the parish of Lambeth; Surrey. .At about a quarter after eleven, his Grace the Archbishop of CANTERBURY, who obligingly as:. si;ned upon the occasion, arrived at Stockwell (ha. ye), where he was received by a numerous assiern: blage of the Clergy and the Gentlemen of the neigh: i ii ( boarhood.
