Yesterday evening the KING returned to Windsor Castle, after a short excursion to Brighton. Early this morning an Admiralty Messenger arrived at Windsor , with despatches for his MAJESTY, who very soon after left his Palace, for St. James's, where, most unexpectedly, he held a Privy Council, which was attended by the Earl of ABERDEEN, and as many of the Cabinet Minis ters as could be collected, on the spur of the occasion. The presumed cause of the deliberation is the arrival of the Ex-KING of FRANCE. ARRIVAL OF THE EX-KING OF FRANCE. The following notice is this day posted at the North and South American Coffee House:—" The Great Britain, and another American ship, arrived yesterday at Portsmouth, with the late King of FRANCE, and suite, on board. The KING will not land; but will bo towed by a steamer to Cowes." lie order'—this is the device borne on the colours of the National Guard of Paris ; be it also in effect the spectacle which France shall display to Europe. In a few days we have ensured for ages the happiness and glory of our country. The Portsmouth letter of yesterday, in Lloyd's List this day, states the arrival of the Great Britain, and the Charles Carrol, from Cherbourg, with the Ex-KING of FRANCE, and suite, on board. The Seine French cor vette, and the Rodeur, French cutter, is in company. Expresses have been received by the ICING, by the Duke of WELLINGTON, and by the other Ministers, announcing the fact of the arrival of the EN-KING of France. We are informed that CIIARLES is far from being well; and that he is apparently inconsolable. The Duchess de BERRI, and the Duchess of ANGOULEME, have suffered much from sea sickness. General MAR MOT is in the Ex-ICING'S suite. EXPRESS FROM PARIS. The Express brings letters, stating that four new Ant. " LOUIS PH ILI P PE. " Paris, Aug. 16, 1830. " The Keeper of the Seals, Minister Secretary of State for the Department of Justice, Durex r (Da LA Curtis.") CHAMBER Of --7 72r1 ITIES, Ave. 14. M. LA EITTF., Vice-president. After much desultory conversation on points of priority and form, the MINISTER of the INTERIOR appeared to make an official communication (profound silence.) Gentlemen—According. to the law of the 2d July, 1828, the Electoral and Jury Lists ought to be published every year in each Department on the I.sth of August, and revised according to the form and with the delays set forth in the first title of this law. The prepa ration of this list was already very far advanced in several Departments, and about to commence in others, when the publication of the Ordinances of 25th of July came to stop this work. The glorious events which resounded around us have for an instant suspended the regular course of administration. Many of the functionaries have been revoked or have left their resi dences. Their successors have scarcely arrived, and yet are imperatively called on to provide for the safety of the country. It is morally impossible that the law of 2d July, 1823, con be executed ; that is, that the electoral lists can be everywhere published on the 15th August— discussed ,revised,and definitively rectified, from 15th Aug. to 20th Oct. as is prescribed. Some persons may think, the Constitutional compact has been promulgated, announcing the important modifications to the electoral legislation, it would be better to await these modifications, to reduce and publish new lists which may be conformable to them. But, Gentlemen, this publication has not the Electoral Lists only for its object; it has applied itself at the same time, and for a year, to the service of the Jury. There is, therefore, an imperious necessity, a great public interest, which cannot wait. The general list of citizens qualified to be sworn must be revised, and put forth as promptly as possible in 1830, so that the list destined for the service of the assizes of next year may be prepared and published officially be fore the Ist ofJanuary, 1831. A simple means presents itself. It is from the 15th of August to the 20th of October, that by the law of the 2d of July, 1828, all the proceedings of the revision of the Lists ought to be completed. It is sufficient to delay for one month the arrangement of these operations ; that is to say, to carry them from the 15th of September to the 20th of November, to meet the necessity. Such is, Gentlemen, the sole aim of the Bill which the King has ordered us to propose to you. It affords the Administration time to publish the lists, to the citizens , time to examine and discuss them, without at all preju dicing the changes which may be made in them subse quently by a new electoral legislation, without altering any of the formalities, any of the guarantees which the law of the 2d of July, 1828, gave. This law will be fully carried into effect; it will only be from Sept. 15 to Nov. 20, instead of being from Aug. 15 to Oct. 20. One addition only is made. The 33d article of our Constitu tional Charter admits from the age of 15 years to the ex ercise of the electorial rights, those citizens who subscribe to the conditions prescribed by the laws. This is no ad journment ; no question subordinate to a new electoral legislation ; it is a right required, complete, and which citizens are instantly to enjoy. The 2d article of the Bill assures this without any delay. The disposition of the Charter is formed, and wants no legal confirmation ; but it has been deemed necessary to proclaim its immedi ate application explicitly. I shall now have the honour of reading the Bill. " BILL. " Louis Pitiful% dc. By the advice of our Council, we have ordered, and do order as follows : " The bill of tenor following shall be presented to the Chamber of Deputies by our Minister Secretary of State for the Department of the Interior, whom we charge to explain and support the discussion. " Art. 1. The operations relative to the revision of the Electorial and Jury Lists, which by virtue of Articles 5, 10, 11, 12, and 16 of the law of the 2d July, 1828, was to have taken place from the 15th of August to the 20th October of each year, shall be, from circum stances, and for the present year 1830 only, delayed one month. " In consequence, the General Jury List shall be pub lished in each department on the I.sth of September, the register of claim (reclamation) shall be dated the 31st of October, the closing of the List shall take place on the 16th of November, and the last table of revision shall be published on the 20th of the same month of November. Art. 2. The electors who, up to the 16th of Novem ber inclusive, shall have attained the age of twenty-five years, and shall be possessed of the qualification deter mined by the laws, shall be included in the same list in the terms of the 33rd Article of the Constitutional Charter. bassadors have been appointed, to proceed to the four Courts of the great Powers, (From the National.) Government has received news dated the 4th from Algiers, which is more satisfactory than the letters from Toulon would lead us to expect. The sick amount to no more than 3,600. The affair at Bleda had no troublesome consequences : measures were taken to punish the insurgents, and prevent a new revolt. The ordonnances had arrived at Algiers on the 4th, and oc casioned fresh agitation in the army. _ _ A telegraphic dispatch has been received from Algiers to the Bth—it will be made public to-morrow. " Frenchmen, " You have preserved your liberties; you have called me to govern you according to the laws :—your task has been gloriously accomplished—mine is before me ; for me it is to eniure respect to the government of law which you have achieved by conquest ; I may not allow another to reject an authority to which I must submit myself. " It is necessary that the administrati resume its ancient course in all respects. [of the law: " Given at the Palais Royal, Aug. 13, 1830. "By the King, 44 LOUIS PHILIPPE. " The Secretary of State of the Interior, (Signed) 4 4 GUIZOT." The PRESIDENT—The Chamber receives the Bill from the Minister, and orders it to be printed and distri buted in the bureau. " Many changes indeed have been effected, and others are in preparation ; but meanwhile it is necessary that the authority of the State remain in the hands of men firmly attached to the national cause. _ _ " A movement so sudden and so vast could not be effected without some momentary confusion—that con fusion has reached its termination ; and I require of all good citizens that they gather round the magistrates to aid them in maintaining, for the common benefit, order and liberty. " Some reforms are necessary in the public service— the receipt of certain imposts charges the country with a heavy burthen. Laws shall be proposed to remedy this evil, In the examination of this matter, no complaint shall be smothered—no interest forgotten—no fact lost sight of. " But, until the new laws shall be enacted, those now in force must be obeyed : reason inculcates this, and the public safety enjoins it. " Let every man exert himself to convince his fellow citizens of the necessity of the crisis ; for myself, I shall not fail of performing my promises hereafter, nor of dis charging my duties at present. " Frenchmen, Europe beholds our glorious revolution with admiration, not unmixed with astonishment. She asks, can it be possible that such events can' take plice by the force of civilization and energy, and with out throwing society- into confusion ? Let us dissi pate all doubts upon the subject. Let a Govern wilt as orderly as it is popular, instantly succeed to the overthrow of absolute power. Liberty and pub- Tuz Mr ISTIR of the INTERlOR—Gentlemen, many seats are vacant in this Chamber. It is unnecessary that an assembly which has already merited so well of its country, by consecrating and consummating, in one day, with rapidity, firmness, and prudence, the glorious result of national resistance, should not see any space in its ranks. To complete it, a grave question presents itself. Important modifications are announced : they cannot be too promptly made, so that the elections now vacant may take place under the empire of laws actually exist ing, for laws exist so long as they are not formally abrogated ; and it is one of the most imperious wants of society, that wherever an absolute and irresistible ne cessity does not strike at it, its legal life continues without interruption. But the electoral laws still in force contain a principle so repugnant to the public conscience, and of which the immediate abolition has been so loudly proclaimed, that it would be disgraceful to authorise its continuance ; I mean the principle of the double vote. Although their prompt solution is desirable, the other questions may and ought to be adjourned to the general and serious discus sion of the announced laws. The double vote is no longer a question ; abolished in principle by the Charter, we think that in fact it should disappear. We must, therefore, take a measure which, without compromising anything with precipitation, and by chance reconstituting our electoral legislation, shall instantly annihilate th e se cond vote, and free th ose elections necessarily about to en sue from submitting to them. To attain this end, it has ap peared to us that the more simple mode was to order that the colleges d'arrondissement only should supply the vacant, elections, comprising that which should have been made by the Colleges of the Department. In the latter case a the exportation of goods by sea, passed by the Gavel no. drawing of lots made in the Chamber at a p ublic sittin g in Council, on 3 0th January last. By this the doclart . will determine which of the electoral arrondissements of the tion of value on applications to import goods need not he department onght to proceed to the replacing the Depcty signed in the collector's or deputy's presence, as hereto lately elected by the Departmental College. T he drawin g of lots in such cases is not a novel proceeding , and one fore; but the collector may require the importer to attend foreign to this Chamber; it has made use of it many and confirm the declaration. Any person subscribing or signing a declaration of this kind, referred to in the fore times—for instance, to determine the classing of Depart , ments in series, and the order of that series when the going clause, as proprietor, importer, or consignee. renewing by the fifth was in force. This measure, purely without authority, is to be liable to a penalty of one transitory, meets the pressure of the moment and the pub- thousand ru pees. Goods for export must be passed lie feeling, and leaves to the future deliberations of the Chambers on our electoral legislation all the liberty and through the Custom-house under penalty of forfeiture, if all the maturity which of right belongs to it. _ unaccompanied by permit.

The Chamber gave leave to the Minister to introduce this Bill, and sent it to the Bureaux for examination. The Chamber then adjourned. In our yesterday's Paper we ventured to throw out a few conjectures upon what were the effects which might probably be expected to result, to the general interests of European States, from the late unparalleled revolution in France; and we shall to-day proceed a little farther in the same enquiry. _ _ CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. The results which may be expected from the event alluded to, naturally divide themselves into three classes Ist. Those which will affect the internal happiness and po litical prosperity of France. Idly. Those which will affect the internal quiet of other nations ; and idly, those which will affect and produce changes in the political relations of France and surrounding States. We have no arrivals of the least consequence, not eve,. a ship letter ; but the information of Prince Polignac arriving at Altona, and going to proceed to Russia, has caused a little depression in the Funds. Consols, whiel. left off yesterday at 91i for the Account, opened at 911 i, and soon after were sellers at 911. At present they are 911 1, with little doing. In the Foreign Market, Spanish Bonds are one-half per cent. lower; as the revolution in Spain is not ex pected to take place so soon as was expected. . • It affords us great satisfaction to observe the French people already in such an apparent settled state.— To judge from appearances we should say, that dis union, much less civil war as a result of the late struggle, was a contingency not to be contem ' plated as probable. The Royalists are, we think, too small comparatively in numbers, and much too powerless, ever to raise the standard of rebellion ; or if it be done, it will only be the short-lived attempt of M. CONTENT, the Italian Messenger, sets off this evening with Despatches for Sir FREDERICK ADAM. the Lord High Commissioner of the lonian Islands. Letters from Berlin say that the King of Prus-ia, otr receiving the news of the late explosion in France, di rected the autumnal movement of his troops on the Rhino to be omitted this year, and the respective regiments m return to their cantonments. _ _ .- -- HAMBURG, Aug. 10.—Prince Polignac has arrived at Altona. He intends to go to Russia. FRANKFORT, Aug. s.—Major-General Baron Von Buttlar, Minister of Brunswick in the Diet, is going to Paris, to the Duke his Sovereign, and thence to London. to compliment the King of England in the Duke's name. Prince Metternich was most graciously received by his Majesty the King of Prussia at Toeplitz, where his Excellency stayed two days. COPENHAGEN, AUG. 7.—Dr. Monster, Bishop of Aarhuus, died on the 31st July, so that we have three Episcopal Sees vacant—those of Aahuus, Aalborg, and Viborg. The North American corvette sailed on the .sth for St. Petersburgh. This corvette, the Concord, has on board Mr. Randolph, and will probably bring back Mr. Mid dleton, hitherto Ambassador of the United States at St. Petersburgh.—Hamhurgh Papers, Aug. 10. COURT INTELLIGENCE. BRIGHTON, AVG. 17.—His Majesty arrived at the Pavilion yesterday evening, at a quarter to five o'clock, in a travel ling chariot and four (post horses), accompanied by Sir Robert Wilson. The Royal carriage was piec,ded by his Majesty's suite, consisting of Mr. Marsh, Deputy Chamberlain, MT. Jennings, two Equerries, and about half a dozen livery servants. His Blajcste stopped for a short time at Crawley, where he partook of some slight refreshment. His Majesty was unaccompanied by any military escort ; even the Life Guards stationed here were not in attendance to receive hiss ; nor were there any but the customary guard and sentries. The High Constable and public functionaries, with the different clubs and schools, were in procession, and formed a line of about two miles on the west side of the road, the east aide having a line of carriages to a much greater extent ; a number of mounted gentlemen, with purple sashes and white wands, kept the centre of the road clear. The greatest order prevailed throughout, notwith standing the immense concourse of persons assembled, surpassing any thing of the kind ever witnessed in Brighton before. His Ma jesty was received with the greatest enthusiasm—shouts of "long live King William," amidst waving of flags and handkerchiefs, rent the skies. His Majesty looked exceedingly well, and returned the greetings of his people in the most condescending manner by repeatedly bowing as he passed along. Admiral Sir R. Otway had the honour of dining with his 'Majesty, and was the only person present be sides the immediate suite. His Majesty walked in Castle-square at an early hour this morning, and has given directions to have the high palling which enclose the Palace grounds opposite East street taken down, and an iron railing and gate erected in its place. He gave orders also for an iron gate at the Ew t entrance to the Pavilion, instead of the present boarded one. By this altera tion the public will have a good view of the Pavilion and grounds. which were hitherto excluded. This arrangement is most gratifying to the public. His Majesty went over every part of the Pavilion, which he minutely inspected, and has expressed himself highly de. lighted with it. He took his departure for Windsor at 12 oclock precisely this day, in the same manner he arrived, and will be in Lindon to-morrow. On the 30th inst. their Majesties and household will arrive at the Pavilion, where they will sojourn till the end of Fe bruary, with occasional exceptions. The illuminations last night were on the most splendid scale. Every inhabited house in Brighten was lit up. Amongst the moat conspicuous were that of the High Consta ble, the Hotels, Theatres, and Coach-offices ; the Chain-pier was spite. didly illuminated ; Sir D. Scott's mansion and that of Major Allen were tastefully lighted ; the cutter Stirling Castle was at anchisr at the pier -head, and fired a Royal salute. At the entrance to the wan Capt. Mahon erected a triumphal arch, decorated with laurels, flowers, and a Union Jack. A Royal salute was fired from the battery when the standard of England was hoisted. Not a single accident occurred throughout. some insane individuals. But although appearance. certainly develope nothing very ominous of present trouble from the republican party, yet we are inclined to think it is in that quarter, if at all, that the waves will first begin to ruffle. It is, perhaps, a fortunate event that the present Chambers are newly elected; and that it is not consequently necessary that an appeal for some time be made to the people, for the election of fresh re presentatives. At the present moment of victorious ex citement, such an election, we think, would be fatal to tranquillity ; for ultra enthusiasts and noisy demagogues might, and probably would, insinuate themselves into the Chambers, in much greater proportion than what is at present discernible. Indeed, the conduct, as far as we have opportunities of judging of the pre sent Chambers is fair, dignified, and generally, all that could be desired. It appears to chew forth men of stubborn virtue, and good information, in all parties. We shall regret if the Royalists withdraw, as we are in clined to think their leaven of use ; and, at all events, they occupy the place of what might turn out not so innoxious. We sincerely hope that the ICtrio will re-confer most of the annulled Peer ages ; as we think good feeling and sound policy both, would recommend the measure. May the present Chamber recollect, that the fault of the first National Assembly, was not deficiency of public virtue—not defi ciency of private worth ; but a generous enthusiasm which led them to sacrifice practical objects to theoretical attempts at perfection. It should not be for gotten that a Representative Government would be the worst of all Governments, if it necessarily involved fluctuation in the executive power, and want of adequate permanence in its councils. The people are, and should be, the source of power : but the Government once con stituted, and fairly emanating from the people, should not be, every revolving moon, subject even to their in fluence. WINDSOR, AUG. 17.—Her Royal Highness the Prin cess Augusta gave a grand dejeuni a la fourchette" this muffing, at her residence at Ftogmore Lodge. Her Majesty. accompaliiid by the Duke and Duchess of Cumberland, the Duke of, Conn bridge, the two young Princes, the Landgravinc of Hrsc How. berg, Prince Augustus of Prussia, Prince Esterhazy, and Baron Bulow, and attended by the Ladies and Gentlemen of li.t suite, left the Castle at one o'clock, in several carriages, t,r Frogmore Lodge, where they were received by Princes% tt. gust*, Lady Ca roline A Waldegrave, and Miss Wynyard. half-past two the whole of the illustrious party were ushered into the principal dining-room, in which a splendid repast had been prepared, of which they cheerfully partook, and con tinued in lively conversation till six o'clock, when they returned to the Castle. The fdte would have been a chanipetre one, bad the weather been more favourable ; but the day being damp and cold, the party were confined to the house, and unable to enjoy the besiu tiful gardens appertaining to Frogmore. His Royal Highnts , the Duke of 'Cambridge returned to the Castle yesterday, and this, morning, at ten o'clock, accompanied by the two young Prirtx 4 proceeded to the Great Park on horseback, where he rt vtew.d the 6th Regiment of Dragoon Guards. His Majesty is expected to arrive at the Castle this evening from the Pavilion at Brighton. His Royal Highness the Duke of Sussex Is expected to arrive at the Castle in the course of this day, on a visit to their Alajestics. The Duke and Duchess and Prince George of Cumberland still continue at the Castle, and it is expected that their visit will extend till the 313 d instant, when they will return to their residence at Kos. As to the results of the revolution as affecting the quiet of other nations, we think they will be momen tous and soon perceptible. The spirit which has been displayed to Europe,in France, is to all Governments, like the test invented by the philosophical chemist, which when infused into a liquid, are sure to develope any base ingredient which may form a component part of the com pound. The spirit we allude to, is now infused into the minds of myriads of reflective beings of all nations— and " if there is any thing rotten in the State of Denmark," or in any other State, it will now be found out and opposed ; for the spirit that has now been infused—not only will develops the faults of Go vernments—but give an irresistible impetus for their speedy correction. Nothing teaches so rapidly and forcibly as example; and the minds in Germany—the cradle of the reformation ; in Italy—the cradle of political virtue; in Portugal—the cradle of geographical discovery; and in Spain—the land of noble sentiment, will not long lay dormant under the mis-government of bigotry and superstition.
