tinued to her, and that it will then be for ParUnita to determine the amount of the future provision to be granted to her MAJESTY." In an annexed paper Lord LtvrateooL adds-1. Thai he thinks it material to observe, that this answ.n. must not be understood as withdrawing the ilicßies which had been previously offered for pro- Cu: ing a residence in London for the QUEEN." We iwed offer no comment on this beautiful docu ment. The people of England will rightly estimate whether it be, or not, another insult offered to their ger.Ew. The withdrawing of her MAJEsTY's name from the Liturgy was a grois- and scandalous insult ; the refusal of a Royal yacht was another; the offer of Fifty Thousand Pounds a year to banish herself was another ; their prosecution involved a thousand other insults; and now the QuEEw may seek a shelter where she can find it, though in England ! But " the allow truce" will be continued 44 till Parliament shall meet for the dispatch of business." " The Allowance! r What ! I, this an epithet fit to come from the mouth of Ministers when speaking of a provi,ion for any member of the Royal Family ? Is lan guage of this kind—language applicable to pan pers—ao be employed respecting the KING'S Royal Consort ? Talk, indeed, of the insulting speeches of Radicals! Can anything like this be quoted frotA the foulest terms which any of these have employed towards any Member of the Royal Family? REJOICINGS IN TILE COUNTRY. TO THE EDITOR OF THE STAR. Poole (Dorset), November 17; 1820. Sett—Greatly admiring the sentiments of your Paper on the late portentous occasion,_ I beg to state, that gn the receipt of the glad tidings of the obnoxious Bill of Pains and Penalties being thrown out, the in habitants of this town expressed their joyful feelings on the occasion. The colours were hoisted on the tewer of the New Church, and on all the ships in the harbour; a number of flags were exhibited from the windows, &c. of many houses; a royal salute was fired, and an excellent band of music paraded the streets until a late hour. The following hand-bill is just distributed : " QUEEN. " The Friends of the Quits igtend to eekbrate the Vietcar which she bas gained over bet Enemies, by dining together at the Old Antelope Inn, on resodAy' next, at Four o'Cloek (the 21st 'natant), being t he day after the Illumination." PLYMOUTH, Nov. 16.—The vast population of the towns of Plymouth, Dock, and Stonehouse, received *e information of the Bill of Pains and Penalties having been "consigned to the tomb of all the Cop. kJ," in a manner equally honourable to Christians and Britons. Every eye beamed joy, and every heart throbbed gladness. The news, the good news, reached this town early on Sunday morning ; and though the sanctity of the day precluded any public expres sion of universal popular feeling, it was yet well spent ; our Churches and Chapels, and all places of Godly Worship, were thronged with grateful con gregations, silently sending up praise and thanks giving to the THRONE or GRACII, for having pre served to us, unmutilated, our glorious Constitution, after having been " exposed to the pelting of the pitiless storm" which seemed to threaten destruction to that enviable pile of Wisdom, Policy. and even handed Justice. We had scarcely passed the " aw ful hour," when a long, loud, and heavy peal from the Church bells, announced the arrival of a new day's morn ; and as soon as we could again greet the presence of lovely Aurora, the gates of the rich man's mansion were thrown open, and the laurel branches freely exposed to the hand of the greedy gatherer, and thus our streets became as groves, and our porticoes as shrubberies. The Snowing of the multitude and ringing of the Church bells enlivened this gay scene until Wednesday even ing, when an illumination, both general and brilliant, formed an equally happy and innocent conclusion to our harmonious proceedings; and here it is but jus tice to observe, that though in a limited degree the tolltue of slander vomited out its direful auguration, cot a voice of hand was raised in derision of those who, hem prudential or other feelings, were con strained from participating in the general observance. BATH, Nov. 17.—Yesterday the inhabitants showed their independence, aid attachment to her Majesty, by a general Illumination in this City and its environs —I say a general illumination, for, with the exception of the Corporation, the tax-gatherers, and a few who are living by the present system of misrule, every house presented a brilliant and heart-cheering ap pearance. The Mayor, John Whilshire, for many years the Captain of the Bath Cavalry, issued several hand and placard bills, expressive of his disapproval of the intended illumination. His exertions were backed by several others, of minor consequence:— amongst which number there was a person most in defatigable in his endeavours, both by persuasion and threats, to stop the tide of public exultation at the defeat the miscreants have suffered, but the flood of joy was too great to be arrested by such puny efforts. The evening was remarkably fine, and never in Bath were so many happy faces seen—indeed, with the exception of the before-mentioned few, there appeared but one feeling—alt was hilarity and joy. I under stand that about twelve o'clock our Magistrates caused the Riot Act to be read, in consequence of nine panes of glass being- broken in the Guildhall four in a little grocer's house, and two in a draper's, which were the whole that were broken, and that they actually sent to Bristol for a party of Lancers. i Happily, however, a trip to Bath was all the trouble they were put to. SHENTIELD, NOV. 16.--Eval day since the ar rival of the news of the Queen's triumph, has been. a day of *hike and rejoicing. Dinner and supper parties bane been formed at most of the respectable inns and public-houses, where the health of our gracious Queen has been the prominent mast, many times repeated, with three times three, and the great est ardour. Discharges of cannon, and other arms, have been incessant every evening; and many re. spectable houses have been illuminated. The gene sal illumination, however, is and for Monday next, a id many brilliant tramp:Mies are preparing fat t: occasion. Sheep are to be roasted whole sous parts of the town and neighbourhood, fare works are preparing, alid other means adopting to' celebrate it as a day of iliefßeci. jubilee. The sa itisfactory termination of the case against the Queen Ihat cheered. the drooping hearts of many thousands of the half-famished workmen and distressed mane fatturers t they forL t et their past and present suffer ings in the joyful expectation of a change of wen and measures, which they fondly anticipate will pro duce such a revival of trade, as may enable them once more to maintain themselves and families by honest industry, instead of eking oat a miserable exist ence bp the cold, and often unfeeling, aid of parochial charity. A Public Meeting is shortly to be convened in this Town, for the purpose of presenting an Address of Congratulation to her Manto', and also to peti tion the ICING to dismiss his present evil Counsellors. At Rotherham, Chesterfield, Dronfield, Eckington, Ridgway, and every other town and village in this district, the news of the' hrowing out of the ',sternal Bill was received with the most lively joy, and the event has been celebrated by the firing of cannon, ringing of bells, sheep-roasting, and every other de monstration of satisfaction. At Eckington (seven miles hence), on Monday last, a party of - Gentlemen met to celebrate the event, and subscribed a consi derable sum to remunerate the ringers. llastsoam—No,withstanding the inclemency of the weather, and the adverse party, who had very in dustriously circulated hand-bills, recommending the inhabitants not to illuminate, as they would be well protected—notwithstanding all these attempts made to prevent that ebullition of public joy, the town pre sented one scene of radiant light and glory. The London Hotel (where the Committee dined, and all the Gentlemen interested in the cause of our beloved Queen) exhibited a wonderful profusion of variegated lamps, Bcc. a most beautiful crown, with C. R. a full and very interesting likeness of her Majesty; the Hydra of Corruption at nor feet appears, with a most malignant and ferocious aspect, darting his fiery eyes and forked sting ; hile her Majesty coolly and fear lessly looks down upon the monster, protecting her self with .i s .ield, oil which is engraven Innocence." The s ot the hotel were very brilliantly illu minated, and interspersed with laurel and other green foliage. At four o'clock, about 150 respectable inha bitants of the town of Ranisgate, with Samuel Sher wood, Esq. their worthy Chairman, sat down to a most sumptuous dinner. The evening was spent with the utmost harmony and hilarity. the mansion of Samuel Sharwood, Esq. was illuminated with consi derable display of taste and elegance : this worthy Patriot is the , 6 life and soul" of Ramsgate, and has, upon every occasion connected with the affair of the Queen, shone in a very conspicuous degree. He it was, iii spite of the machinations of her cruel and in exorable persecutors, and the baneful poison of the Hydra of Corruption, issuing from the filthy green bag, boldly stepped forward as the champion and advocate in the cause of oppressed innocence. The next brilliant display was the premises of Mr. Rees, silk-mercer, who has likewise exerted himself in a very conspicuous manner in this ever-memorable epoch of British history : his house presented one continual blaze of light. Many other inhabitants seemed to vie with each other in the general mani festation of joy. GRAVESEND—(Axother Account).—Monday night last this town was the scene of much mi:th and har mony to celebrate the victory obtained in the House of Lords. The illumination was general, even to the small cottages and alms-houses ; but what appeared most strange was, that the Excise-Of fi ce should be illuminat4 and the Custom-House left in total dark ness, although immediately opposite each other, the width of the street only dividing them: there was also a grand procession of a Society, called « The Happy Britons," followed by a waggon, containing the effigies of four persons who cut a conspicuous figure in the late investigation, viz.—The Countess-of Colambier and Majocchi, with their heads in the pillory, occupied one end of the waggon; and a ce lebrated Colonel—, and Sir on two gib bets, the other. After the procession had passed through all the streets in the town, accompanied by thousands of spectators, it steered its course towards the Windmill-hill, where an immense quantity of combustibles had been collected for the occasion, in the centre of which was placed the pillory and gib lbets, with the figures attached to them ; light was then set to the pile, and the blaze must have been seen a long way out at sea, from the exalted situation in which it was placed. The night went off with perfect good humour, and every one seemed pleased with the part he had taken in the affair. CROUCH-END, HoaNsev.---Tuesday, two Gentle men of the above place gave to the poor two sheep, which were roasted whole ; other inhabitants, by subscription, gave 1,000 loaves of bread, and one butt of beer. Majocchi's effigy was carried about and burnt in triumph : transparencies were exhibited, and some of the houses illuminated. The cries of Long live the Queen, " and Victory, with three huzzas," rent the air the whole evening. After the above had been disposed of, the respectable inhabi tants dined at the King's Arms, and the whole pro ceeding ended in the greatest harmony, and no acci dent occurred. EPPUIG.—The illuminations, &c. at Epping, on Tuesday evening, to celebrate the triumph of the Queen, were attended with more general expressions of joy than were ever witnessed in that town. A figure, representing the famous Majocchi, was pa- raded through the town, and finally committed to the flames. A large green bag was also hoisted, and shared the same fate. At Harlow, on the following evening, the illuminations were still more splendid, and upon a larger scale, being conducted by Gentle men of the first respectability in the neighbourhood, both for character and property. A large white flag, with the words "Queen Caroline," and the figure of a Crown, on one side, and the names of " Wood," 44 Brougham," and " Denman," on the other, was displayed, and had a striking effect. About nine o'clock, a numerous company assembled at the Green Man, and spent the evening with great conviviality. ang, HERTIPORDBIIIRE, Nov. 16.—Wednesday last, in commemoration of the late event, this town! and neighbourhood (in which are quartered the 71st, Scotch regiment) was both handsomely and univer sally illuminated. Au effi gy of Majocchi was shot by platoons in the Bull-inn-yard, and afterwards hung on a high gallows, in an adjoining meadow, over a large accumulation of materials as a bonfire and burnt. The night concluded peaceably, with every demonstration of joy and festivity. FRENCH PAPERS. The large arrear of French Papers hai been full} made up by the arrival, this morning, of those from Sunday•to Wednesday, inclusive. The elections continue to be decided generally in favour of the partizans of Government. The De partment of the Seine has returned three Members in this interest, viz. M. M. BONNET ; OLIVIRR, and Ls BRUN ; and only two votes are wanted to have the fourth on the same side, M. QUATREMERE DR QUINCY having already polled 992 votes, which is but two short of the absolute majority required. The verdict on the extraordinary case of assassina tion, of which we gave au abstract on Wednesday was pronounced on Tuesday. It declares both Cap tain Tvlune and Mad. Gralay Not Guilty. The Sittings of the Spanish Cortes were expected to close on the 9th instant. The permanent Com mittee, which is to watch over the conduct of Minis ten s during its prorogation, was appointed on the Ist of November. It consists of four Spaniards and three Americans. The estimated deficit on the budget, l for the current year, amounts to 172,403,033 reads, and it is proposed to meet it by a loan of 100,000,000 mats. The credit of the Government Paper, however, is so law that more than double this sum of nominal debt will require to be created, in order to cover the exi gency. The vales-royaux are at a discount of 66 per cent. The Lisboa Gazettes to the 28th ult. announce no• thing extraordinary. The greatest tranquillity reigns throughout all the provinces of Portugal, and the Government is entirely occupied in measures of Fi nance, and for the speedy Convocation of the Cortes. The situation of Naples is becoming extremely in teresting. The most recent accounts from Vienna breathe nothing but hostility against it, and July next is even named as the ultimate period when an Austrian force will be in occupation of the Neapoli tan territory. The army, which is already distribu ted along the Po, is stated to amount to 70,000 men, and a second of 80,000 men is to be formed on the Adige, to serve as a reserve When the first advances. The occupation, it is moreover said, will take place with the concurrence and support of the allies of Austria—namely, Russia, Prussia, and it is even pre tended England. The Congress at Troppau, as our Readers may be aware, has already assembled, and commenced deliberations. As yet, the only Sove reigns who have appeared there in person are the Emperorof A orrata. and the Emperor ALEXANDER; but the King of PRUSSIA is said to be on his way to join them. Lord STEWART paid the patty an unex pected visit on the 28th ultimo; but he remained only a few hours, and then returned to Vienna. The hopes of the Neapolitans are derived from two sources. In the first place, they learn from Vienna that the money credit of the Austrian Government sinks daily lower and lower, and that M. ROTHSCHILD has declared it to be impassible to fulfil the loan of 37 millions of florins which he had contracted to make good on the Ist of January, 1821, and that the utmost he can do is to give the National Bank his engagements at three years' date. 'Money forms the , sinews of war, and it remains for the Austrians to' solve the problem, how they can carry on an of fensive war without k. In the second place, the Neapolitans are among themselves united, and enthusiastic in the defence of their national independence ; their frontiers are brist ling with the bayonets of a patriot army ; volunteers are flocking from all parts to sustain the national standard; and donations of money, arms, and every other munition of war, are pouring in to Govern ment from the more wealthy of the citizens. The English squadron still remains in the Bay of Naples, bat under professions of the strictest neutrality. ALI PACHA still stands out in his citadel of Janina. Immense batteries are erecting to compel him to submission. French 5 per Cents. Tuesday, 77fr. 30c. An article is inserted in the Journal des Debats, under the head of Carlsruhe, Bth November, giving what is said to be a copy of a letter from the Baron D'ENDE to Mr. VIZARD, our QUEEN'S Solicitor, ez plaising More Xully his reasons for refusing to come over to England. He repeats the pretenceof his health being very ill—being such as to require " his most se rious cares ;" he then pretends to have discovered, in a speech of Mr.BROUGHAM, something so very . inju rious to the memory of the late GRAND DUKE, his master, that " he would lose all esteem for himself, if he could lend himself (si je pouvoiS me preter) to a cause in which they had dared to blacken so unjustly his late Highness's noble manner of acting r and he sums up with saying, that at any rate the tes timony he could give would not be of that use to her MAJESTY which it is• supposed. If that testi mony could possibly have injured her, who imagines Baron D'ENDE would have stayed away ? A letter from Boston, of the 13th Oct. states as follows:-.-4 , Letters have been received from France and Spain, giving every assurance that the Florida question, as well as our commercial difficulties with , France, will be settled on terms of equity and jus tice: we certainly should be glad to see these pro.. mises realized. On the night of the 19th August, a shock of an earthquake was felt at 'Honduras ano. at Omoa, on the Spanish Main. The shock was more severely felt at St. Padro: the Church• and several dwelling-houses were thrown downOtod-several live were lost: the earth opened in several ewes, some hills were thrown into the river." .~•~~ . r. : viz ARMY.
