The introduction of these new measures, which are founded on the decimal system, will un doubtedly prove ultimately a very great benefit to nll classes of citizens, though it may be attended at first with some inconveniences. FRANKFORT, NOVEMBER 7. A courier just arrived from Vienna has brought us the following intelligence :—On the 21st, 22d, 2.1 d, and 24th, there were conferences at the hotel of, Prince Metternich, at which all the Ministers of the iu - reat Powers now at Troppau were present ; but the first sitting was on the 25th, at which last the Em perors and Crown Prince of Prussia were present.— The conferences will continue till the middle of No vember. It is thought that the Emperor Alexander will set out in about a fortnight for Berlin, by the way c,f Brachia and Dresden. Several mercantile houses have received accounts, that the European Committee, as it is called, con siqii:g of the Ministers of the four great Powers, and now established at Paris, there to deliberate on the general concerns of Europe, will he removed toVienna.

Lord Ltveoroor, in answer to the QUEEN's Letter requiring his NlAJesrv's Ministers to furnish her MasosTv with a suitable I.2.ricie!.ce and establi,h meat, has informed the QUEEN that his Lordship has communicated her demands to his MAJESTY, but has not received the Klan':; commands on the subject. Lord LIVERPOOL, in his letter, pleads his absence from town for his delay in answe.ing her MAJESTY'S letter. We seem to be getting iito circumstances altoge t!ler inexplicable. " Thc Kt NG ran do no wrong!" and the priceical application of this poli:ical axiom Scorns now to be coming to this : that Ministers, when they neglect to do what is right, have only to say, " We have received no commands from the KING on the subject!" Thus may every wrong be committed and every duty set a , ide. The Pablic have not, nor will they ever, forget the suhtei loge by which Ministers evaded fernishing her MAJESTY with a Royal yacht to bring her to England ; but such shuffling, though it may be prac tised for a day or two, from what motive we shall not inquire, cannot now be persisted in. Ministers know well the circumstances into which they have brought themselves by their filthy measures against her MAJESTY ; and that, without the necessity of having recourse to a Bill of Pains and Penalties, th:y are not placed beyond the reach of punish ment, if they shall dare to insult, or even to neglect, the QUEEN-CoNnOET of ENGLAND! It is a bitter pill, and they must swallow it, however many wry mouths it may occasion them. Though thee wish "to spew teeth," by their answer to the QUEEN'S demand, they have been obliged to take it into consideration ; and report says, that Hampton Court is to be assigned for her MAJESTV'S residence, with—if the People will submit to it—an allowance of twenty : five thousand pounds a year I Yes, so it is reported. The virtuous and feeling Ministers of the tNG, who could offer her i‘laiesTir AN thousand pounds a year to spend in foreign countries, and (according to the complexion of every part if their late proceedings, if there was one particle cf honesty in any one of their actions) in vice and wickedness ; mean, most generously, to dole out to the QUEEN of the United Kingdom, the mighty sum of twenty-five thousand pounds, to be spent in England!! Will they say, " the state of the Revenue will not allow us to be more liberal r We ask—has it grven horse since Lord Hurcntssox went to St. Omer's? We ask, how many sinecurists live now upon the in dustry of the labour of this overtaxed community ? and how many thousand pounds a-year they get di vided among them ?—and how do they spend these thousands? But we need not dwell on this at pre sent. We have but one word to add :—Let these men be assured, that the dignity of the QUEEN Con sort shall be supported with suitable spipndour, how ever many pensions and salaries may be docked to accomplitsb the object I REJOICINGS IN THE COUNTRY. •Wrirmouiru, Nov. 16.—1 n consequence of the Bill of Pains and Penalties being withdrawn from the House of Lords, on Monday evening lait many of our loyal and respectable inhabitants, in exultation, illuminated their houses. Among those who most ' conspicuously manifested their zeal, we particularly noticed the following Penny, Esq. displaying an elegant purple silk banner, belting the following mottoes, painted in gold and silver letters, ember lished with white ribbons, and the interior of the house brilliantly illuminated—" The glorious Result of Firmness and Independence !" " Queen Caroline 1 Triumphant !" Palmam gni mernit ferat !" E. Vivian—A full-size Portrait of her Majesty, in vested with her Crown: on the right, " Innocence triumphant;" left, " Perjury defeated :" also, a Bust •of the much-lamented Princess Charlotte, decked • with laurel and mourning emblems. Mrs. Dodd—: Transparency, a figure-head enjoying a hearty laugh, profUsely decked with laurels, representing John Bull delighted. Mr. James Harvey, civil engineer— Transparency, representing a Beam and Scale of Jus tice; in one scale the letter Q, and within the same the letter C, supporting a Crown, with an emblem of the Hearts of the People; at the bottom, device of a Green Bag, mouth open, with letters falling out, and coin used in bribing Italian witnesses. Mr. G. Harvey, ironmonger—Variegated lamps, fanci fully arranged. Mrs. Cross—Elegantly emblazoned with lights, ornamented with shrubs and laurel taste fully entwined. The fionses of Miss Udall, and Mrs. Evans, on the Esplanade, and of Mrs. Andrews and Miss Harbin, were not less conspicuous. Among others who seemed emulous to outvie each other in their demonstrations of rejoicing, the following de serve also to be mentioned :—J. Allen, Esq. surgeon ; Alderman Bayley, Rev. Mr. Piers, Mr. Heath, Mr. Drayton, Mr. J. Cox, Mrs. Richman, Mr. Mansell, Mr. Dymond, Mr. Wm. Bat tlett, Mrs. Blackboard, Mrs. Langrish, Mrs. Flint, Captain E. I3a!tlett, &c.' The evening conclude-. 4 by a large party of respect able tradesmen assembling at the Commercial Hall, near Gloucester-row, Mr. Dymond, wine-merchant, in the Chair, where loyalty and conviviality never reigned more cheerfully. GRAVESEND. Nov. s.—Among the numerous de monstrations of zeal on the successful termination of the QueEres cause, none has exceeded that of the town of Gravesend, as was evinced by a most splen did illumination on Monday last—not a single house but was illuminated, and the display of taste and elegance was brilliant and striking. An admirable, appropriate, and beautiful transparency was exhibited by the Rev. J. G. Duni-tam, late of Northfleet. The device was as follow s :—" Carolina llegi," sur mounted by a Crown.---" There, Regina still, in spite of them!"—" The wicked wattheth the righteous, and seeketh to slay him : :he Loup will not leave him in his hand, nor condemn him when he is judged. Wait on the Lono, an.; keep his way, and he shall exalt thee to inherit the land!"—The forv , oing in scription was surrounded by an oval border, orna mented with laurel, beneath which was the follow ing couplet: " Of Ilieen CAROLINE'S ease, this at last is the sum, " bhc did come over here, and did hen overcome i ! On a scroll, on one hand, was inscribed the word " T 1 uth ;" on the other, on a shield, the word " In nocence." Be:Leath was the fig-ire of a dove escaping from the L!rit..i: 4:f a boa consti ctor. The whiLle , a a. executed in a stye: ior style, and had a most pleasing and impressive effect. STRATFORD, Nov. Is.—Net anythin.! can more demonstrate the deep intereA felt by all god men in the triumph f the Queen than the enti,usiastic zeal with which that ev.nt was celebrat.fd, ye,ter day evening, in this villaFe, by all the loyal inhabitants, die illuminations being almost universal, only a very kw obdurate Jacobins refusing to put up lights.— Amongst the most brilliant was Mr. Moss's, chymis , who had C. It. and a crown, in variegated lamps, with a transparency if her Majesty ; there seer e also many ,:rliers well suited to this occasion. In Hank-lane, at the academy, was a pretty transparency of an angel pointing to the crown, and a motto, "Caroline is Bri tain's Queen ;" and beneath a second motto, namely, " 'Twas nobly done ; she well deserves a Crown l" The same ze4l was also manifested in West Ham, and quite down to the retired village of Plais tow. Amongst the most conspicuous were Mr. Len nox, Mr. Newbery, Mr. Dixon, the Rev. Mr. Lacey, Mr. Bohol Humphrey Marten, and Mr. Thompson ; the latter gentleman exhibiting a neat transpa: eney of Liberty standing on a monster with seven heads, dis playing the portraits of the chief conspirators, among whom was one in lawn sleeves ; the motto, " tyrants, fall." The windows on each side we: e deco rated with variegated lamps, in festoons. Mr. Mar ten's was lighted up with candles along the whole length of the front. A vast assemblage of people paraded the village,exhibiting Majocchi on a gallows, attended wish music, and cheering as they past on.— The whole went off in a peaceable and joyous manner (with the exception of a few broken panes of glass), as always must be the me when men are loyal, and engaged in the cause of justice. KETTERING.—The news was received with all pos sible marks of joy and pleasure; a procession with music and white Hags in the morning—in the even inj a general illumination, in which white roses,, laureis, and candles, were displayed with effect. On the Sunday, in the largest congregation of the place, the demoralizing effect of the late proceedings was admirably met by the Preacher, in a Sermon from the text—" If thou seest the oppression of the poor, and violent perverting of julgment and justice in a province, marvel not at the matter; for HE that is E higher than the highest regardeth, and there be higher than they 7 BOGNOR, SUSSEX, Nov. 15.—The inhabitants of this place, which for nearly three years was the resi- 1 dence of the late Princess Charlotte, were desirous' of sheaving their attachment to her mother, by a general illumination. Mr. Clark, a gentleman re siding at this place, took the lead ; his house was most tastefully illuminated with variegated lamps in large letters, Q. C. and festoons of the same to the windows, with laurel, &c. which. was immediately followed by the whole. of the gentry and inhabitants of the place and neighbourhood, except the follow ing—Sir John Harrington, Lord Arran, SirJohu Orde, Thomas Smith, Esq. and the Earl of Portsmouth. PENZANCE, Nov. 15.—Last night's mail saving .announced the joyful tidings of the Queen's victory !over her *ile accusers, this morning was ushered WI by the display of flags of 'almost every description at the mast-heads of the different vessels in this port, and on poles in many parts of the town and the neighbouring villages of Newlyn and Mousehole. Subscriptions have been entered into for the purpose of defraying the expenses of bonfires, tar-barrels, &c. and at this moment there maybe seen on the opposite hill, over Newlyn, a quantity of tar-barrels, reflect ing their vivid flames in the mirror of water below, whilst on the rocks, near the shore, bonfires innu. merable blaze up and enliven the scene. " Long live Queen Caroline r- " Queen Caroline for ever!" may be seen on almost every hat, and in every varied form and colour, whilst parties, preceded by music, parade the streets, and rend the air by their acclama tions of " Long live Queen Caroline r GLASGOW, Nov. 14.—The account of the failure of the Bill against the Queen, excited a considerable sensation here yesterday. In the evening the populace paraded the streets with tar barrels. The Pattole f•llowed one from the Cross to the head of Stock well -street, when they seized and broke it in pieces. While endeavouring to extinguish the flaming staves, the mob assaulted and drove them away, and having collected the fragments, they seized a Police box, and some boards were brought from a mason's shed in Virginia-street, and a quantity of wood from the end of the Old Bridge, and all were heaped on the', fire, which was in a short time very large. A little before eleven o'clock, a party of Dragoons arrived. and dispersed the crowd. The fire was then-approached by the Police, and a pipe being fastened to one of the water-cocks, it was instantly extinguished. Three lamps have been broken, and three Police boxes de-' stroyed ; but we have not heaid of any other damage being done, or any person being severely hurt.—' Every thing went on harmoniously in the Calton. There was a partial illumination; and there were three bonfires at different parts. By ten o'clock the demonstrations were all over, except one of the bon fires ; and the people around it immediately retired, upon being told by the Provost that it was getting late. Such is the obedience willingly paid to Magistrates, who hold their office by a better title than self-election. Yesterday the Duke of CLARENCi kit town on a visit to Sir Jonx Hos% near Chatham. _ _ The rccoudtement of her Royal Highness the Du chess of CLAnENcit is expected to take place about Ch;ipitmas. The QUEEN intends going to I rammersmith Church on Sunday next to receive the Sacrament, and on the Sunday following to St. Paul's, publicly, to return Thanks to ALMIGHTY GoD for her deliverance fiom the foul and wicked conspiracy directed against her h, nour and iirrr I.fe. A communication has been made to the LORD MaTort of her MAJESTY'S intention. Her MAJESTY has fixed Friday, the 24th, for re ceiving a considerable number of Addresses of Con gratulation already voted. Her MAJESTY has invited many distinguished No blemen and their Ladies to dinner on Monday next. Visitors at Brandenbtirgh House— The Lion. Henry Grey Bennett, \'.P. Mrs. H . G. Bennett, Mrs General Lyster, Miss and Miss M. Lyster, Mr. Pascoe Grenfcll, M.P. Sir Thomas Maryun Wilson, Mr. Fitzgerald, Lady Lindow, Mr. Peter Moore, M.P. Mrs. Wilde, Sir W. and Lady Hush. Her MAJESTY has returned the following gracious At.s‘\ er to the Address from the Inhabitants of Rams ga e:— " I have particular satisfaction in receiving this loyal and af fectionate Address from the Inhabitants of Ramsgate. " The victory they anticipated has, at length, been accom plished, by the abandonment of that unconstitutional Act by which it was sought to degrade me. The odium that was in ter.ded to destroy me has recoiled upon the heads of my op pressors; the perjuries of infamous witnesses have not only been demonstrated by open inquiry, but have been acknowledged even by those under whose authority they were suborned. The persecution of the Queen of England is perhaps the only one, in the history of criminal justice, in which the accusers have been compelled to make a sacrifice of every witness on whose testi- 1 mony they rested their accusation. " I em anxious to banish all painful feelings that such trans :.ctions arc too well calculated to excite ; but the zeal of my friends, and the disinterested attachment of the English people, will be engraved on my heart as long as life and memory remain." Her MAJESTY returned the following gracious Answer to the Traders, Burgesses, and Inhabitants of the City of Edinburgh: " I am unfeignedly obliged by this loyal and affectionate Ad dress from the Merchants, Traders, Burgesses, and Inhabitants of the City of Edinburgh. " My enemies could not fairly urge the plea of necessity for their late arbitrary and unconstitutional proceedings. The safety of the State was more in danger by the measures they pursued than It could have been by leaving me in the undis turbed enjoyment of my legal rights. " In repelling the attack of injustice, I have avoided every thing that could give to any one a moment's unnecessary pain ; I have had recourse to no assistance but the support of a free, honest, and enlightened people. To that generous people my warmest gratitude is justly due.; and I account it a particular happiness to me, as well as a mark of the righteousness of my cause, that it has excited in the Scottish Nation an interest be yond what they had before been known. to take in the public affairs."

From an account just printed, .hy order of the Hous- of Commons, in " a Supplerneatary Report of the Committee of the General Assembly," as to the management of the poor in Scotland, it appears that the gross funds applied to paupers in Scotland, amount to £114,195 17s. 9d.—of which 1.4.9,718 10s. sd. are derived from assessment, the rest being from contri butions at the church doors, and other funds. In seven out of fifteen Synods there are no assessment-. The non-assessed Synods are Aberdeen, Moray, Ross, Sutherland and Caithness, Argyll, Glenelg, and Oik ney. The paupers are as one to thirty-nine and nine tenths to the population. The late Mr. ALEXANDER THOMSON, writer, in Edinburgh, and a native of Dundee, has, by his set tlement, left, among other donations, one hundred pounds sterling to the Dundee Infirmary; to the Lu natic Asylum of Dundee, fifty pounds sterling; and to the Kirk Session of Dundee, patrons of the Wi dows' Fund, Dundee, two hundred pounds sterling, all free of legacy duty. Tuesday se'nnight, about eleven tat night, a fire broke out in one of the storehouses at the manufac tory of Messrs. Harden and Sons, near Pynernoolc, Aberdeen, which for some time threatened destruc tion to the large square of valuable works by which it is surrounded, but, by the exertions of the firemen and inhabitants, was happily confined to the building in which it broke out. The loss is not extensive, al though some damage was sustained by the removal of wool and other property in the adjoining buildings. Thursday se'nnight, in the evening, the inhabitants of Aberdeen were again greatly alarmed by a dread ful fire, which suddenly broke out at the extensive.and valuable manufactory of Messrs. Maberly and Co. Broadford, near Aberdeen. A little before eight o'clock, this calamitous event was announced, by the illumination of the atmosphere, as well as by the ti ing of bells, and other signals of alarm on the awful occasion. The various engines from the town, the Barracks, the Print-field, and Woodside, in addition to that at the Manufactory, were brought with incre dible celerity; but so rapid was the progress of the devouring element, that by the time they had reached the spot, the greater part of the roof of that part of the building in which the fire had originated, being the shops in the attic story, preparing -rooms, Scc. in the floor below, were consumed, and the roof had fallen in. The attention of all was, therefore, neces sarily directed to the most proper means of prevent ing the spreading of the flames to the contiguous ex tensive and valuable buildings, which, after several hours arduous and unremitting perseverance, was happily effected. Wednesday evening, Sarah Jones, daughter to a blind-maker, of Brewer -street, Golden-square, «'•t s , playing near a watchman's box in the same street, which not being properly fastened, it fell down, and covering the child, hurt it to such a degree, that in a few momenta it expired. 14t 16 t fat 20 t Litt Nei Mr. kW, the uooi wit Tilt race dan SCIS Ntl!s bay rec•. that iense dem, clira alter Yov. znoz in c 1 Fre Stn. ft
