It will be seen from the proceedings in the House of Commons, that the Debate on the unhappy dif. ferences between the KING and QUEEN, which on Wednesday was adjourned to yesterday, was again adjourned last night till Monday next, in conse quence of an intimation from Lord CASTLEREAGN, that a communication froth the QUEEN had been made to the Earl of LIVERPOOL. In this state of mat ters it would be improper in us to offer any farther observations on this delicate subject for the present. The communication to Lord LIVERPOOL was de livered by Mr. DEN MAN, and was, we understand to the following effect : " Thr Qurev, in compliance with the advice of her Counsel, and of several Members of the douse of Commons, thinks it proper to inform Lord Lavattroot., that she is ready to receive any proposition that Is consistent with her honour, which his Lordship may be disposed to snake on the - tart of his Majesty's Government." In our humble opinion, this is the course in which the negotiation ought to proceed. The propositions ought certainly to conic from the KING, or from his MAJESTY'S servants. The QUEEN, possessed of all the rights and privileges of the Queen Contort of England, has nothing to ask—can have nothing to ask : it is for those who would deprive her of any of these rights, or to limit the exercise of them, to spe cify the rights they wish her MAJESTY to renounce, or the limitations they wish to impose. Iler MA JESTY will then judge how far, consistently with her honour, and for the sake of the peace of the country, she can make those sacrifices which they may propose. In connexion with this sul),ject, it will also be seen by our Readers, that in the house of Peers Lord lior.LAND gave notice, that he would on Monday next move for leave to bring in a Bill to repeal the Act of the lath of Geo. 111. affecting the marriages of the members of the Royal Family, in the hope that such repeal may lead to or facilitate an accom- modation or settlement of the unhappy existing dif ferences. We pretend not to understand the mod us operandi by which this measure is to conduce to this end ; but, from the opinion w•e entertain of his Lord ship's judgment and discernment, w•c arc satisfied he would not have proposed a measure likely to fail of its object. Our Readers will see that his Lordship's _motion is contingent, and that if the sitting of the Committee is postponed from Tuesday nest, this motion will also be postponed. The Paris Papers of Wednesday arrived this morning. The effervescence occasioned by the pertinacity of the Government, in pushing the new Election Law through the Chamber of Deputies, is still unaSated ; but, in consequence of the vigorous measures taken by the Civil Authorities, aided by a large military force, an end has been put to those scenes of riot and violence which were exhibited at the close of last week. On Monday and Tuesday, groupes of people still continued at intervals to assemble in the streets, but as soon as the Gendarmerie made their appear ance, they instantly dispersed, without offering any resistance. • In the Chamber of Deputies, M. BENJAMIN CON . rra.sr described the assemblages of people as im mensely numerous, not less than from thirty to forty thousand at a time. The KEEPER of the SEALS contradicted this as sertion, as completely false. They never, he said, amounted to a tenth of that number, and consisted of a factious few, who wished to constrain the Royal will, and to dictate to the Sovereign seditious laws. It was more than hinted, by some Members on the left, that these commotions, instead of being excited by the opponents of the Election Project, were Ole work of the Ultra-Royalist party; and several in stances were given of personal insults being offered to Members of the Chamber. M. GIRARDIN was seized by the collar, and obliged to cry Vire I.e Roi! CASSIMIR PERRIER and B. CONSTANT were pursued by part of the mob, and the savant of 'the former was struck. M.CONSTANT declared that individuals had told him to put M. LAFAYETTE On his guard. It must, in candour, however, be allowed, that these are but insulated instances of outrage, and as likely to have been provoked i►t a few by the conduct of the mob, as to have formed any part of the mob's sys tem of tactics. There cannot be a doubt that the commotion has arisen on the Liberal side ; and it is a paltiy affectation in the leaders of the Liberal party to deny it. What motive could the conquering pa r ty have—for so the Ultra-royalists must be considered-- to raise any popular disturbance on the subject? O r what object could M. CONSTANT have in exaggera ting the numbers of those who are of opposite opi nions to himself? The motive with the people to be dissatisfied with the proceedings of Government, is very intelligible. —The effect of the new Election Pioject will be to redece the number of Electors from 97,000 to 18,000, and of these 15,000 will be the creatures of Government ; so that not a shadow of a national representation will remain. And this is a change which Ministers halo the perilous hardihood to think of carrying agairist the voice of the nation by a majority of five ! All the left side of the Chamber, despairing of op posing any farther effectual resistance to the Project, have wholly withdrawn from the discussion. They keep their seats in the Chamber, but they neither speak nor vote, and take care at every stage of the proceedings, to request this to be particularly noticed. There is now, of course, every prospect of the dis• cession being brought to a speedy termination. The Student at Law who was killed during the riots, was interred in the Church. of Notre Dame on Tuesday morning. His remains were followed to the tomb by upwards of two thousand young men, mostly Students of Law and Medicine. The trial of Louvel was concluded on Tuesday.-- After M. BONNET, his Counsel, had addressed the Court, and endeavoured to make out in his behalf a plea of insanity, the PRESIDin asked Louvel him self if he had anything to add? Louvel thefi pulled out of his pocket two sheets of on.which he had written with his own hand an address, which he read to the Court. It is said, by all the Journals, to have been so atrocious and foolish as not to admit of repetition. The PROCVRATEUR•GENERAL was then heard, and M. BONNET in reply ; after which the prisoner was removed, and the Court cleared. The Court continued two hours and a half in deli beration ; and, on the Public being re-admitted, the CHANCELLOR pronounced judgment, finding Louvel Guilty of Assassination, and condemning him to be beheaded. The Funds have, owing, no doubt, to the trou bled aspect of affairs, suffered a very considerable depres,ion. A few days ago they were at 75 f. 60 c. but on Tuesday they had fallen to as law as 73f. 35c. EXTRACT OF A PRIVATE LETTER FROM PARIS, DATED WEDNESDAY EVENING. " This Capital continues to be in a great state of fermentation; a number of families have left it.— Orders have been transmitted to the Commanding Officers in the neighbouring Departments to concen trate their forces. It is reported that all the Liberal Deputies intend to present a humble Petition to his MAJESTY, to obtaioi the withdrawing of the Election' Law. This is to be signed by them as private Citi zens, not as Deputies." EXECUTION OF LOUVEL. We learn from Dover, that a telegraphic dispatch had been received at Calais, announcing the execu tion of laurel, on Thursday, the Bth. Her MAJESTY, feeling that while she resided at the house of Mr. Alderman WOOD, she was putting to inconvenience the family of the worthy Alderman, who were obliged to live at - an hotel, was very anxi ous to get a house. A very neat house, the property of Lady ANNE HAMILTON, having been offered, her MAJESTY accepted it, and removed on Thursday night, between twelve and one, to the house in question, in Portman -street, Pt rtman-square. She went out at the back of Mr. Alderman NVoon's house, leading to Dean-street : her MAJESTY went in Mr. Alderman Wooes carriage, to which the Alderman attended her. She seemed in good spirits, and yesterday morning said, cheerfully, that she had slept in her small house at happily ani soundly as if she had slept in a Palace. Yesterday morning, Mr. Bnot7cltam, Mr. DENMAN, and several other Members of Parliament, had an in terview with her MAJESTY at her new residence.— The Earl of DONOUGIIMORE, the Hon.. GREY BEN.. NETT, Mr. Alderman WAITIIMAN, and many other persons, left their cards at the house in the course of :he day. At half-past three o'clock, her MAJESTY sat down to dinner, and Mr. Alderman WOOD had the honour of dining at her table. A considerable crowd of people, and many can Lige% collected about the house in the afternoon. The west end of the town was last night compa ratively free from riot ; but, warned by the excesses of the preceding evenings, most of the houses were more or less illuminated. Tottenham-court-road ap peared to be the line of derharcation between light and darkness—none of the houses in the streets or squares to the eastward of it exhibited any lights, but all beyond it was Carolina. Her MAJErry, after breakfasting this morning, was visited by Mr. Al derman WOOD and Mr. DENMA'. A crowd of per sons are about the house, lout all is perfectly quiet. The blinds of every window are down. A Requisition, numerously signed, was presented to the LORD MAYOR yesterday, requesting his Lord- ship to convene a Court upon an early day, to con sider the propriety of a dutiful and loyal Address to her MAJESTY the QUEEN, upon her arrival in this country. The LORD MAYOR has appointed Wednesday next. The House of Commons having divided last night on a private Bill, previous to the business respecting the Queen having come on, the struggle for re admission to the Gallery exceeded anything ever be fore witnessed. In vain were the cries of " Order, Order!" froth the Chair. Such was the solicitude of all, that persons actually threw themselves from the door, over those that intervened, into the body of the Gallery. Cries of " Murder !"—" lam suffocating!" were to be heard in various parts. At the same time we are happy to say, that no accident eventually oc curred, as there was room for all ; but such was each person's solicitude to hear the awful discussion on the Royal Messages, that in the contest they interrupted and trampled upon each other. COURT OF KING'S BENCH.-THIS' DAY. THE KING v. SIR FRANCIS BURDETT. The Court of King's Bench this . day gave judgment on the important motion in this case, and have ORANTZD Me Rule to chew cause why the verdict of Guilty should not be set aside, and a verdict of Ac-' quittal entered. DOVER, JUNE 9: An Ambassador from Spain (the Duke de Fares) has just landed from the Lark packet, under a sa lute. His Excellency sleeps at Parris, the York Hotel, where a guard of honour from the Veteran Battalion, attends him. He proceeds to London to-morrow. Yesterday, the Duke of YORK transacted military business with the KING, at his Palace in Pall-mall. The Princess SOPHIA was yesterday visited by the Duchess of GLOUCESTER, the Princess SoettiA of GLOUCgSTER, Prince LEOPOLD, &c. at York House. The Duchess of CLARENCE visited the Duchess of KENT, on Thursday evening, at the King's Palace at Kensington. Yesterday the Duchess of CLARENCE dined with the Duchess. of KENT, at the King's Palace, Kensington. The Duke of YORK, and several other distinguished characters, will honour the Merchant Tailors' Com pany with their presence, at dinner, this day. Yqsterday, his ROyal Highness Prince LEOPOLD gave a grand entertainment to their Royal Highnesses the Duke of CLARENCE, Princess AuousrA, Prince, and Princess ESTERHAZY, Prince SAPIEZIA, Prince FRANCAVILLA, and a large party of distinguished Foreigners, at Marlborough House. The Marquis of LaNspowst gives a grand enter tainment, to-morrow, to a large party of distinguished personages, at Lansdown House, Bei keley-square. The Dowager Conntess of CLONMELL has issued cards of invitation fair a grand assembly to-mot iow evening, at her house in Portman square. The second amiable daughter of Lord SroMouru will shortly give her hand, at the Hymeneal Altar, to the Honourable and Rev. GEORGE PELLEW, son of Admiral Lord Extiotrril. Mrs. BeaustoNT's Fete, on Thursday .night, was one of the most brilliant of the present season. Seven hundred persons of distinction were present, The houie was crowded in every part with beauty and fashion, even to the corridors. The Banquet was served up with magnificent services of massive silver plate. It was a stand-up Supper, and the tables, which were loaded with the choicest viands, were continually replenished—pines, nectarines, peaches, and grapes, in the utmost abundance, having been brought from the Colonel's very extensive hot•houses •at his seat in Yorkshire; The illuminations were most brilliant, and the company did not retire till between four and five o'clock. The Will of the lite most Noble the Duchess Dowager of NORTIIUMBERLASD, was registered 4, Doctors' Commons, on the 30th ult. Probate having been granted to her daughters, the Right Hon. AGNES PERCY, and Lady EMILY MURRAY (wife of Lord JAMES MURRAY), the Executrixes constituted by the tenour of the Will. The effects are sworn under £12,000. The Will is in her Ladyship's own hand- 1 writing, and - was made very soon after the death of her daughter, the late Lady ELIZABETH PERCY, which event is alluded to with much affliction and regret. The Duchess desires that, upon " quitting this world of sorrow," should she die near London, she may be interred near the Duke, or some of her children ; but if at a distance, in the nearest church yard, and that her funeral may be quite private.— Her property is given generally to her daughters, the above-mentioned executrixes, who are the resi duary legatees ; but particular bequests, as memo rials of affection, are given to different members of the family, to servants, and to a very few friends. A picture of the Duke set in diamonds to Lady Emma', and a diamond watch to Lady AGNES. Similar be quests are made to. " PRUDHOE," the present Duke and Duchess of NORTHUMBERLAND, and Lord JAMES MURRAY. A Codicil is added in the hand-writing of Lady EMILY, under her mother's directions; it augments a legacy of one hundred pounds, given by the Will to the Marchioness of EXETER, to five hun dred, and desires that the diamond watch, with the arrow, may he given to her little grand-daughter. A die is sinking for a new silver coinage of the present reign,' which, it is said, will be issued on the day of his 'MAJESTY'S Coronation. Monday last Sir CRARLEs WoLszticit was waited upon by an express Messenger from the LORD CHAN.- CELLDR, to serve him with a Supersedeas—an instru ment by which he is erased from the list of the Ma -gistracy ! On the evening of Wednesday last, a desperate plan was laid by six of the prisoners in Devizes Bride well, to break their way out and murder the Go vernor; but, happily, the Governor, Mr. BIRT, re ceived intimation of the diabolical intention, and took the necessary steps to prevent it. A double guard has been since placed over the Bridewell. Mr. YOUNG concludes his engagement at Liver pool, this week, by performing the Strange, to the Mrs. Haller of Mrs. M.GissoN, who is engaged at Drury-Lane Theatre for the next season. - Mr. and Mrs. BARTrEY arrived on Friday last at Liverpool, from New York, in_ perfect health.

The Officers, Non.sontraissioned Officers, Drummers, and Men; are to receive, during the period of training, the same r4-ts of Regimental Pay and Allowances as the Militia recei , .ed v:l.i.e they were last embodied.' The Officers will receive an ai1...v..- ance for the carriage of their baggage, at the rate of nine-p.:: ce per mile, from the place of their residence, if within the cot' or If not within the county, then from that border of clinic o:sit county which is nearest to the place where they m-y happen to be when summoned to attend. The Men will receive the usual Marching Allowance front the places float which they shall proceed to join, provided such places be nut more distant front the place of assembly than :he parishes for which they are respectively enrolled: and the like allow lances will be made to the Officers and Men cn being dismissed. Instructions will be given to the Paymaster as to the rates of the said Pay and Allowances, and as to the triode of drawing ' for, and Issuing the Ante, but no Officer or Man will be cond. d to pay for any period of absence, even though absent with leave, sinless ha sha.:l have joined the Regim..nt during the period of assembly. The permanent Non-commissiored Officers and Drummers are, of course, fully clothed and equipped for duty ; it is, there fore, only necessary to provide for the Equipment of the addi tional Noncommissioned Officers and Drummers, and of the Private Men; and a sufficient quantity of the following articles, namely, one coat, one waistcoat, one pair of grey trowsers, one pair of short-grey gaiters, one pair of slices, one cap, one shirt, one pair of short stockings, one stock and clasp, one turnscrew, one worm, one picker, one brush, one knapsack, will be beat fur this purpose from the public stores. The small articles of necessaries, such as shoe-brushes, &e. are to be provided out of the regulated stoppages from the pay of the Men during the period of training, according to the Act of the 42d Geo. 111. cap. 90. sec. 96. The articles so provided out of the stoppages are to be taken away by the Men on being dismissed; the other articles of clothing and necessaries are to be lodged Carefully in the regi mental stores for use on future occasions. It is not thought necessary, at this season of the year, to fur nish great coats for the whole Corps, it being expected that those now in the regimental store, or in wear by the permanent Non commissioned Officers and Drummers, will be sufficient for the proportion of the Men on guard. - As May net be in possession of the Pay and Clothing Act for the Disembodied Militia for the current year, I inclobe a printed copy thereof tqr your information. I have, &c. (Signed) PA LktliltlSTON. Militia. Colonel of the Yesterday a ballot was held at the East-India House, for the election of a Director in the room of Sir JOHN JACKSON, Bart. deceased. The numbers stood thus : Commas &vox Pazscore, Esq. . . -93 S Jonas Du Paz Atxxarrnza, Esq. - - sett Asaatuss Wassams, Esq. - 11 9 MAAJOILOUGH4ITIUMM--Ittors.--Yesterclay, pats, ilackenere, Thomas Dobbs, John Mildew, John Walling, John Clayton, 'lla mas Chandler, and Edward Sidney Augured (some of them very decent young men), were brought up by Plank, Wales, Jefferits, Valentine, and other Officers, charged with riot, ind making a desperate attack upon the house of Lord Sidmonth, on Thurs day night last. The facts are briefly these:—On Thursday night last, an extensive mob of persons left South Andley.street, and on their road down Hill-street broke the windows dile inha bitants, and, crying, " lights!" made a great riot. On arriving in Berkeley-square, they demolished the whittle of the windows on the west side. In Clifford-street they stopped opposite Lord Sidmouth's residence, where a party bad been entertained. They assailed the house with stones, mud, and other missiles, and com pletely, demolished the whole of the windows. The inmates were naturally alarmed for their safety; and Lord Exmouth, who was one of the party, made his appearance, and addressed the mob, requesting them, as reasonable men, to desist from their violent proceedings, and retire to their habitations. They abused his Lordship, especially Mackenzie, who was resolutely taken by Plank and Wales, the Officers. The violence of the mob. not being abated, but increased, Lord Exmouth intimated that he and the other Gentlemen were armed, and that Girth , r outrage must necessarily urge them to nse their arms. His Lot ti• ship was hooted s when he, with the rest of the party, sallit forth. on the mob, and they were ultimately overpowered sod dispersed. M'Adams, while his Lordship was pursuing some fellows, was exciting the mob to violence against him, and be W.. 9 taken by Valentine.—A similar attack was made at the,blarqui , of HertfOrd'i, in Manchester-square. In Portman-square the co.- duct of the mob was so infamous, that the Officer' using their cutlasses, some of the rioters were desperately wounded.—Tl•e Officers proved the above circumstances, and were corroborated by Captain Wilson, of the 20th Light Dragoons. They were all ordered to find bail.—The Magistrates held a conference. and, in order to pursue necessary steps for the preservation a she public peaix and also the property of individuals, Messr , . Lee and Smart, the High Constables, were sent for, and re ceiver/ instructions to have extra Parish-officers, 12 from each Parish, one of whom should be stationed at the above Office, for the purpose of conveying necessary intelligence to the I'ulice, if the outrages were repeated. el and published by Lin Ms*, Temple-Per Az" nays:- Irer fid nal am jec .00 SI "ir B C.
