This day despatches were received at the Foreign Office from their Excellencies Lord STUART DE ROTHSAY, our Ambassador at Paris ; and from Sir CHARLES BAGOT, our Ambassador at the Hague. Despatches were also received at the Colonial Office from Lieutenant-General Sir C. COLVILLE Governor of the Mauritius. We have just been favoured with the perusal of a letter from Holland, quoting one written by a gentleman who is in the immediate court circles at the Hague, which con veys the information that the Prince of ORANGE is restored to the KING'S favour; and that he has had devolved upon him, an important ambassadorial duty at our Court. The K INti has expressed his determination to contribute indi vidually, to the necessities of the Prince's Treasury ; and intends, it is said, to negociate in England, a loan of two million sterling, on the guarantee of his own' fortune. The speech of De POTTER, and the intelligence generally from Belgium, is highly satisfactory. We think the Provi sional Government deserve great credit for the impartial line of conduct they have chosen ; and we are glad to perceive, that even our cotemporary the Times, shews no longer an inclination to begrudge his applause, to the patriots of Brus sels, and De POTTER among the rest. The aspect of continental politics is, we are happy to ob serve, from the above and other indications, again losing a portion of that distraction of feature, which could not be contemplated without occasioning terror. France, for the moment, although we dare hardly say more, appears tran quil. The Administration, under its new organization, while it has not the unpopularity which attached to it be fore, we hope, is embued with the same temperate princi ples, which before actuated it ; and, we likewise hope, that it has obtained an additional degree of vigour. We are not quite aware that its want of energy before, was to be attributed to the individuals who have seceded ; but it is not improbable : as, although able, and we have no doubt well-meaning, they developed perhaps a deficiency of qualities less amiable, but we are convinced equally essen tial, for retaining authority in France. We see, or think we see, that already the same party who have driven Gutzur and his colleagues from dice, is beginning a system of Si . - miler opposition to tl.eir successors ; and we are quite sure, that until the day shall arrive, when the Government of France can say," thus far shalt thou go, and no farther," there will be nothing but uncertainty as to the peace, not only of France, but of Europe. We think that there are indi cations, however, that the present French Ministers have come to that conviction ; and are determined so to ac t. It is evident they have adventured one bold act, by their resistance to the alterations regarding the Press; and there can be little doubt, but that they will thereby, draw down upon themselves, all the evils which the hos tility of that instrument can produce. The word popularity is a term which is seldom definitely used. If by popularity is meant, that which is favoured by the majority of any people, we believe that no Govern meat would be so popular in France, at the present moment, as that which would dispel the terrors of further revolution. The most noisy—those who live by their wits—those who wield the pen with most success when they can make others wield the sword, are, unfortunately, too apt to be taken as the majority of the people ; and ' what they advocate, to be that which is prpular. Now we are convinced that the abuse of this word popular, is as direful in its consequences to society, as the abuse of any word has ever proved; and we say this, recollecting it is too true, that one half of the animosity which has kept mankind in constant conflict, has had its origin in the abuse, or false application, of words. The majority of a population, in our opinion, is very seldom the violent or intemperate ; and that Govern ment can never be truly popular, which denies security to those who possess property, a certain market to the trader, and certain maintaining employment to the labourer. These, the essential objects of well-being in the social state, are al ways denied, where there is uncertainty in the Government; and every Government is just popular or unpopular, as their objects of well-being are established. The tendency of man is to domestic quiet ; and happy would it be for the world, were the word popularity divested of all meanings but its right one; and not perverted, so as to make the noise of the few, pass as the vox populi. We beg to direct the attention of our Readers, to a passage supplied by our Correspondent in Paris, from the Constitu tionncl, regarding the cholera morbus, in Russia; and the extraordinary fact that its progress is attempted to be stopt by a Cordon Militaire I The Journal du Commerce of Antwerp, of the 9th instant, is now before us, in which we find the following passage :—" The 'Change this day was thrown into the greatest agitation, by the event of the Hull Packet, which excited the greatest indignation and discontent. This vessel entered the port last night, in defiance of the armistice, as well as against the defence of the chief of the squadron, stationed in the port. The deputation which went to the citadel, in consequence of this event, returned at eight o'clock in the evening. They were received by Ge neral CHASSE, who was indignant with the conduct of the Captain of the packet. General NYPELS, fearing that the town would be exposed to a second bombardment, which was to have recommenced at eight o'clock, sent on board two persons to observe that no merchandise was landed.— , M. GIRTEN, Commander of the Port, also sent on board (four men; and General Nitru.s ordered that the locks of the basin should not be opened, %ithout a written order. The above vessel was to go ont of the basin ou the Bth into the river." We have received some advices from Ccy lon this morning. The following official document is of some moment to our commercial readers. Chief Secretary's Office, Colombo. Sir,-1 am directed by the Governor to inform you that a reference having been made to His Majesty's Secretary of State for the Colonies, His Excellency has received instruc tions to permit French vessels entering the ports of Ceylon to export to France, or any other country, any goods, the exportation of which is permitted by law to other foreign vessels; and I am to request that you will be pleased to give the necessary instructions to the different Collectors of Customs accordingly. (Signed) P. ANSTRUTHER, Deputy Secretary. ro the Hon. the Commissioner of'Revenue. We have Malta Gazettes tohe 14th ult. Tl►e following is of some interest, to those connected with the Mediterra nean trade : "By his Excellency the GOVERNOR. " His Majesty having been pleased, by an Order in Coun cil, dated the 25th August last, to direct that Mediterranean passes be issued free of all charges, with the exception of stamp duties, which at present amount to five shillings, the Lieut.-Governor is pleased to order, that the fee hitherto le , vied on the issue of Mediterranean passes in the Chief Se cretary's office, under the table of fees established on the 24th Dec. 1825 of 31. 6d.

" By command of his Excellency, " FRED. HANKEY, Chief Sec. to Govsenment. ". Palace, Valetta, Oct. 8,18'30." We have a file of Be, from the 11th of May to the Bth of June. By the letters from Lucknow, it ap pears that Rani Duyal, who had acquired so great an ascend ancy over the Bing, had been placed under arrest by his Majesty, and an honorary guard stationed over his house. His property is stated to be attached. It was reported that an insurrection, or disturbance of some sort, had broken out at Cuttack. The principal encouragement to this had arisen from the reduction in strength of the regiment stationed in that district, the disbandment of the provincial battalion, and the sale of its arms and accoutrements on the spot, which at once supplied a refractory rajah with military weapons, and men who knew how to use them. Some dis turbances had also taken place in Assam, but Captain Neufville, with a few provincials, was successful in quieting it. It was fortunate that the local infantry was not dis banded, there being no regular troops in Agram, except a small detachment of native infantry. REPEAL Or THE DECLARATION AGAINST THE UNION —The following is the declaration against Mr. O'Connell's proposed plan, for agitating the repeal of the legislative Union between England and Ireland. It has been drawn up in London, at the requst of the Grand Masonic Lodge of Ireland, of which his Royal Highness the Duke of Cum berland is the Grand Master : " We the undersigned, viewing with abhorrence and dis gust the effects now making in Ireland, to procure a dissolu tion of the legislative union between Great Britain and Ire land, by an organised system of agitation, think it incum• bent on us, at this momentous crisis, to wave all considera tions which might infer a cordial and unanimous expression of loyalty to our sovereign, and unalterable attachment to British connexion, and to mark our strong reprobation of those efforts, which if successful, would, we are convinced, lead to the destruction of our most valued institutions, and end in the dismemberment of the British empire. " We further think it necessary to declare our decided conviction, that the agitation of this question is mischievous in the extreme, u tending to destroy public confidence, and to prevent he introduction of capital into Ireland; by which the most effectual and permanent relief would be afforded to those, whose distresses must ever meet our most anxious consideration and sympathy." Signed already, amongst others by the Earls of Longford and Roden, Viscount Lorton, Lords Farnham, Land, and Corry ; and by the following, among other Irish Members of Parliament :—Hon. King, Sligo County ; J. Lefroy. Dublin University; A. latrny, (son), Longford County; Moore and Shaw, Dublin City ; Mr. Clintock, Louth County; Sir R.

FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE-EXCLUSIVE. PARIS, Nov. 13. • On Thursday the 11th November, at two o'clock, the King received at a private audience his Excellency the Count d'Ofalia, Ambassador of Spain, who presented the letters of his Royal Highness the Duke de Lucques, which accredits him near his Majesty, with the title of Minister Plenipoten tiary. His Excellency was accompanied and presented to the King by Marshal Marquis Maison, Minister for Foreign Affairs, who afterwards presented him to the Queen, the Princes and Princesses of the Royal Family. Yesterday, November the 12th, at twelve o'clock, the King received in a private audience, M. Oerthing, resident Minister of his Royal Highness the Grand Dicke of Meck lenburg-Schwerin, who delivered to his Majesty the letters of his Sovereign, which accredit him in that quality.M. °ar ching was accompanied and presented to the King by Mar shal Marquis Maison, Minister for Foreign Affairs, who afterwards presented him to the Queen, the Princes and Princesses of the Royal Family.—Moniteur. Much remark was made yesterday, on the profession of faith by M. Lafayette against insurrection. He told us, " That a free and truly constitutional Government, the meet holy of duties, is obedience to the laws." This expla nation is very remarkable, it shows all the difference of 89 and 1830. The Revolution of 1830 does not carry the maxims of that of 89 ; and the man who represented both does not wish to descend into the tomb, with the responsi bility of the first.—Gazette de France. There has been distributed to the Deputies of the Cham ber a medal bearing the effigy of Louis Philippe, with the inscription " Louis Philippe 1. Roi des Francais." But on the reverse is found the date August 3d, 1830, which offers an anachronism. In effect, the 3d of August, Louis Fhilippo was not King, he was only Lieutenant-General. It was not until the 7th of August that the Chamber of Deputies gave the declaration, and it was not till the 9th, that Louis Philippe took the oath as King. Nor was it until after the oath that he was hailed as King. It was at that moment only that he was saluted with the acclamations of Vivo le Roi Louis Philippe ! At his entry be was equally greeted by those of Vive le Duc d'Orleans—vive le Lieute nant-Genoral !—Constitutionnel. The Minister of the Interior addressed, yesterday, to the Commissioner at the Exchange of Paris, the following letter : " Stn,—The crier proclaims in the environs of the Ex change, and upon several other points, the most alarming news from England. One hundred thousand men, they say, aro marching upon London. This news is absolutely false, and it is given out in order to excite trouble in Paris. Take immediately all necessary measures to stop the effect of such culpable menaces. " I intend to write to the Prefecture of the Police upon the subject.—l am, &c. " MONTALIVET." The Commissioner communicated the contents to the agents of 'Change immediately. As the Spanish Government keep troops on the frontiers, the French Government, we hear, will take precautionary measures. It is even asserted that a number of troops will shortly pass through Bordeaux, and that a camp of from 20 to 30,000 is to be formed at Bayonne."—/ndicatsur de Bcndeaser. The news from London of the 9th is less sombre than that of the preceding day ; but the general agitation in the City, the discontent of all the well-thinking portion of the Citizens, at the step taken by the Ministers, which was at least imprudent, and those precautionary measures which give to London the novel appearance of a state of war, can not but be taken as symptoms of an approaching crisis. We aro not among those who thought, that the old Constitution of England was to be overthrown in the course of a night, by a popular riot raised against the New Police. GOD be praised ! liberal institutions are too firm for this, and a parody on our days in July will not be made for an impru dent expression in Parliament, or an ill-judged speech from the Crown. But let us not deceive ourselves. England, who is not desirous of a revolution in the true interpretation of the turn, will not submit to an authority that sets itself up against those reforms, called for by time and reason. Now the Duke of Wellington, by declaring in Parliament that he would oppose every species of reform, very inconsiderately excited the public mind, which did not need such a declara tion to become in a state of agitation. He has, however, strangely braved all the generous sentiments of the people of England; and the few friends he has in the aristocracy will be but a feeble substitute for those he has lost in the popular ranks, by this unexpected declaration. He must already be aware of this ; but the blow is struck. He has thus placed himself in the alternative of a humiliating retreat, or a dan gerous resistance. The well-deserved popularity of William IV. stands high. We trust that his ministers will not put it in jeopardy, by running the chances of an obstinate policy, which must henceforth be totally incompatible with the peace of the country.—Journal des Debate. The noble efforts of M. Paanal, advocate, for the re-es tablishment of a constitutional regime in Corsica, has at last been crowned with full success. The following letter has been addressed to him by one of our most honourable Deputies. Pais, Novimsza 11, 1830. Sta—l hasten to transmit you a communication which has been willingly made by Monsieur, the Keeper of the Seals. _ _ Ist.

EUSEBE SALVEETE. An Oidonnance to the above effect is in the Moaiteur of to-day, Nov. 13. RUSSIA.—St. Petersburgh, 25th Oct.-Cuotsae MORBUI His Majesty the Emperor, after having been personally as sured, that all the necessary precautions had been taken at Moscow, to stop the progress of the epidemic has quitted that capital, and arrived in perfect health, the 20th of the month at Tur, where his imperial majesty proposes to perform qua rantine. We have received, from the points upon which is established the cordon scasitaire, which encircles the city of St. Petersburgh, the news that all possible measures s re taken to guarantee our capital from the epidemic. A dou ble cordon militaire has bean formed, upon all the routes which border on St. Petersborgh, and placed under the com mand of generals, experienced and full of seal. The aide de camp of the emperor have been sent by his imperial ma, I jesty upon all the routes by land, and the communications by ; water, to closely watch the execution of the well-laid mea sures adopted by the amviement, and to render an account ; directly of all that passes to hie imperial majesty, whose pa ternal solicitude occupies him without ceasing, in )1;, t: connected with the well being and tranquillity of his ful subjects.—Constitutionuel. The Directors of the Parisian theatres, frightened at the determination taken by the administration of the Pa ne hospitals, to renew the taxes for the poor, an unconstitutioall tax frequently deducted even upon their losses, which by often caused, and will cause again, the ruin of the thear r ,., , have petitioned and obtained an audience of the Ki ng . H i , Majesty listened with as much attention as sincerity to complaints of each, explained, and expressed himself re. specting the tax with remarkable sincerity. " I de n o r admit," said his Majesty, " that one class of citizens ti t . taxed more than another. It is beyond the legality to whic. one should return. The difficulty is to accomplish it. YI ) , establishment of taxes has often been only a measure 0 4. circumstances, and regarding the one of which you con, plain, and against which my sentiments are in accorilant, with yours, I always was of opinion, that the tax inflictol was intended as an atonement for the sin of comedy, aj that it was levied in order to ask forgiveness of Gun." 1%1 1 ; regard to a few observations made by some of the D. rectors, his Majesty added : " There is in all these things, that which my mind coul., never bo made to uphold. When I see an administration ire. thering a tax which is unconstitutional, and which makes t deduction upon the receipts of theatres, concerts, balk, ant; even rope-dancers, I must say that it is pushing severity t. far." On one side, some theatres arc receiving pecuniary aid, from the money of the state; and on the other, some 14:e struck down with a tax even levied upon their losses, and tfi the profit of an administration ! It is incomprehensible ; plainly shows that when one swerves from what is legal, ai! becomes confused. The King prolonged the audience ti!l each had expressed his opinion; and on several occasions, assured the Directors united, that his earnest wishes were t; contribute to the prosperity of the theatres ; and begged t! them to send to him, as soon as possible, the reports explanatory notes upon each question.—Figaro.

The anthem was, " 0 where shall wisdom be found?" composed by the late Dr. Boyce, which was sung by two of the young gentlemen of the choir, and Messrs. Salmon, Vaugan, and Sale. The Prince of Orange, and a numerous assemblage of the nobility, were present. The Queen took an airing yesterday afternoon in her car riage in the parks. Yesterday the Duke of Wellington bad an audience of his Majesty. Yesterday the Prince of Orango, the Ambassador front the Netherlands, and his Lady, the Prussian Minister, and the Baroness Bulow, and a select party, dined with the Duke and Duchess of Cumberland. _ _ . Her Royal Highness the Duchess of Kent, the Princess Victoria, and their suite, left the King's Palace, at Ken sington, on Friday , on a visit to Prince Leopold, at Claremont. The Princes of Cumberland and Cambridge attended tile first performance this season on the Al ollonicon on Satur day afternoon. In the coarse of the performances, a grand naval divertimento was played, in which " Rule Britannia" and other popular airs were introduced. The French Ambassador, and the Russian and Prussian Ministers, bad interviews with the Earl of Aberdeen on Sa turday, at the Foreign-office. A deputation of glass manufacturers, beaded by Lord Stanley, Mr. Campbell, M.P. and others, attended at the Treasury on Saturday, and had a conference with the Chan cellor of the Exchequer. Mr. Huskisson's will was produced to be stamped at So merset-House on Saturday. The duty paid was 7501. the property being sworn to be under 60,0001. The Queen's private band performed for the first time be fore her Majesty, in her apartments, on Friday evening. Mr. F. Cramer conducted. The band which is principally com posed of the pupils of the Royal Academy of Music, ap peared in their new uniform. CANTZDJIWAT, Sun DAT NionT.—About three o'clock this morning a large fire was distinctly seen at some distance from this city, on the London road. A large faggot stack. at a abort distince from Broughton Hill, containing several thousand bundles of faggots, was wholly consumed.
