Sa -turdery, his Royal Highness visited the KING. Yesterday, the Duke and Duchess of CLARENCE attended Divine Service at the Chapel Royal. The Duchess of KENT left her apartments in the lii;;g's Palace, at Kew, on Friday evening, on het :etart, to Claremont. The following distinguis4ied persons were amongst the vi,itors at Brandenburgh House yesterday : Els no, Highness Prince Leopold of Slxe Cobutg, Lord • DuLcanuou, Countess of Tankerville, Lady Mary I3ennet, Mr. Peter Moore, M.P. Mr. Douglas Kinnaird, Mr. Sharpe, Mr. liobhouse, M.P. and Mr. Sheriff Waithman. The Rev. RU MAT FELLOWES performed Divine kervicc at Brandeubursh House yesterday. A very numerous and respectable 'Meeting of the Inhabitants of t! - .e Parish of St. Mary, Whitechapel, was held on Thursday, in the cons Vestry-room of the Church, for the purpose o fconsidering the propriety of presenting an Address of Congratulation to the (bags on the abandonment of the Bill of Pains and Penalties in the House of Lords. Several Gentlemen expressed their abhorrence of the measures that had been adopted to vilify and -degrade the QUEEN. Thanks were voted to Lady ANNE HAMILTON, AO Mr. Alderman WOOD, and to Mr: HAYS, for his con duct in the Chair. The Address, which has since re ceived no less than 4,000 names,.is to be presented by a Deputation of Ladies and Gentlemen, accompanied by G. BYNG, and S. C. WHITBREAD, Esqrs. M.P. A Requisition - for calling a Meeting of the County of Somerset, is in a state of forwardness. A Requisition for a Meeting of the County of York is now in a course of signature ; the object of the Meeting will be to express a strong opinion on the late proceedings against the QUEEN. A Requisition to the MAYOR of Lincoln, signed by upwards of eighty inhabitants, including four Aldermen and the Sheriffs was sent to him on Satur day se'nnight, requesting him to call a Meeting " for the purpose of cor.sidering the propriety of pre senting a congratulatory Address to the QUEEN on her recent triumph over conspiracy and perjury." In compliance therewith the MAYOR appointed a Meet ing, which was to be held on Friday last. A Requisition has been presented to the Vicar and Churchwardens of the Parish of Islington, calling on them to convene a Meeting of the Vestry for the pur pose of congratulating her MAJESTY on the failure of the late Bill of Pains and Penalties. The Church wardens took time to consider the subject, the Senior alleging that the Meeting could not be called with out the sanction of the Vicar. To this it was replied, that, in fact, the Vicar had nothing to do with it, and that it rested with the Churchwardens only. The Senior persisted, however, and the objection was waved in deference to his better judgment. On Fri day night last a refusal to call the Meeting was re ceived from the Churchwarden, the conclusion of his letter intimating that the present is a question in which the interests of the inhabitants of Islington are not concerned. With the Churchwarden's letter comes one from the Vicar (who is also a Prebend of Rochester), contradicting the doctrine of the Church warden by the following paragraph I might not improperly decline communicating my sentiments on a matter, in which they have the sole right of direc tion, and with which I can pretend no official con cern." The inhabitants of Islington, thinking.the pre sent question one in which their interests are con cerned, will now meet without the Churchwardens, and the time fixed for their meeting is Monday next, at six in the evening. Wednesday evening, several hundreds of the inha bitants of Southampton assembled together (that being the day her Majesty went in procession to St. Paul's), and in celebration of which event, a grand display of fire-works was exhibited in a large field near the Wheat Sheaf Inn; and the effigies of Ma joccbi, De Mont, Sacchi, Cuchi, and Rastelli, were exposed to public view, after which they were thrown into the midst of a very large bonfire, and.the whole concluded with a grand explosion of the green bag. Last week Major CASE, of Testerton-house, Nor folk, gave to all,the poor men, wom en, and children, upon his estate, and many o thers in the neighbour hood, a good dinner of roast beef, plum-pudding, and plenty of ale, in honour of the Q U EEN'S triumph. In the afternoon , the women and children had tea and cakes, and they enjoyed themselves dancing and singing till nearly five o'clock in the aviary, when they departed, expressing their grateful thanks to their hospitable donor, and to the Ladies who had conde scendingly waited on them during the day. After the poor people had dined, a sumptuous dinner was given to a numerous party of Ladies and Gentlemen. The room was tastefully decorated with oak and laurel branches, and transparencies with appropriate mottoes. After dinner, Major CASE gave—" The Queen; GOD bless her r-e. The healths of the Bishop of Norwich"—" The Duke of Sussex"—" T. W. Coke, Esq."—" Lord Albenlarle"—" Archdeacon Bathurst," and many other Gentlemen were drank with loud and reiterated applause, and the conviviality of the evening was kept up with great spirit till a late hour. . . Sir HENRY TORRENS, the Adjutant-General of the'Forces, inspected the 14th Light Dragoons, and the 85th Regiment of Foot, QA B righton Downs, on Monday last, and expressed liimr..et highly gratified with the discvinei-state or those tine Regiments. Monday, the 27th ult. the 11 , )yal Mid-Lothian Vo lunteer Cavalry, under the command of Major Sir JOHN HOPE, assembled on.Pi)rtobello Sands, when they were inspected by General Sir THOMAS BRAD- Foie!), Commander-in-Chief• of his Majesty's Forces in Scotland. The various evolutions were pe: formed in a very manner, and reflected great credit on that highly respectable corps : and in con sequence of the favourable state of the weather. a huge concourse of spectators assembled, who were much gratified with the whole scene. Tuesday the 28th ult. the first division of the 23d Fusileers, consisting of two companies, under Lieu tenant-Colonel DM NIES, marched into Limerick' from Ennis, on a route for Dublin, where they ar rived on the 29th ult, and are to be followed by the rest of the Regiment. The 23d Welch Fusileers are to embark at Dub lin, fsir Liverpool, and thence to occupy the quar t of the 12th, at Manchester. It is supposed that either the 40th or 55th will replace the 92d. A detachment of the 25th ( King's Borderers) are doing duty at Boyle, county of Roscommon, under the command of Captain Broutets. The 78:h, Highland Regiment, under the com mand of Colonel LINDSAY, in Tuam and its vicinity for the last three months, began to march for Dublin •n the 23d ult. and the others followed on the suc ceeding d.tys.

We are happy to understand that Sir WALTER SGOTT, Bart. has hcen, upon the resignation of Sir JAMES HALL, unanimously elected Piesident of the Royal Society of Edinburgh, at the fullest meeting of that learned body that ever assembled. This honour, which is the highest that Scotland has to bestow on literary or scientific eminence, was, we are informed, entirely unsolicited either by the distinguished per sonage who has received it, or by any of his friends. We mention, as a token of the spirit of the times, that a public-house on Toll-house-hill, Nottingham, long known by the sign of the King's Arms, has now hoisted a portrait of Thomas Denman, Esq. Solicitor-Genial to the Queen; and another house in Chapel-bar, has taken down the King's Head, and a figure of Queen Caroline, with the rose, shamrock, and thistle, is to be fixed up inst ead thereo f. The Rector of Bilston, the Rev. Mr. LEIGH, at the illumination of that town on Monday se'nnight, had a transparency, with the inscription, " Let every one enjoy his own opinion—l believe the Queen to be innocent," &c. If this true spirit of Christian civi lization had been generally adopted by the Clergy, in relation to the same subject, the throne, the laws, and the altar, would have reposed on a rock of ada mant, in comparison wit h their p resent basis. Lord ERSKINE in little chaise drawn by his I Celebrated horse ' Bluebottk, is now one of the most constant distinguished whips on the drive between London and his seat of Broom Hall, near Reigate. Lord SUFFIELD had last week a distinguished party, at his seat in Norfolk ; amongst whom were the Duke of YORK and the Duke of WELLINGTON. Sir WILLIAM ELLIOT, Bart, when hunting with the Mellerstain Fox-hounds a few days ago, in the neigh bourhood of Lord MINTO'S house, in Rosburghshire, mdt with a bad accident, his horse having fallen with him in leaping over a wall towards the end of a long run, by which the Honourable Baronet had one of his legs much bruised. the KINO of the Two Sicmin has not in 'ged the compact, inasmuch as " in resuming the vernment of his kingdom," he did not introduce change ; second, that supposing the obligation have an indefinite duration, it remains to be : all that the Revolution which has taken place Naples i-, not reconcileable with its ancient mo i-chical pi inciples. The Note maintains, on the :trary, th.n. Constitutions consolidate Thrones, and i-antee the legitimacy of the rights of Kings; :.1 that this has been done, in an especial man by the Constitution shich the Neapolitans Ave adopted. The Note then asks the cause of increasing armaments which are going on in -!,,tiia? of the precipitation of immense bodies of strian troops into Italy ? It demands a positive' categorical explanation of the attitude which .astria has assumed towards the Neapolitan Govern- . s•nt—an attitude contrary to the sentiments of hitherto existing between the two Courts, 7 rattle canf3rmabk to thtzse principles of (rater ;,;,}diinterestedliess which the Allied Sove ;!ta...3 i:ave proAtinied in the fl:ce of the world? Should Au•tria commit any aggression on the •iaz,dom of the Two Sicilies, the attempt will be so :arch the more o.liotis, that it has never made any , pposhion to the small States of Germany, which :Ave chosen ConstitutiJns for themselves, and has steps, at least publicly, against Spain, whose o,ample Naples has dane no more than follow. After some e:pressions of personal respect for the naiiied with a ittve that he may yet be ( :-Itlnu-ed of the prejudi:es has conceived against !:.e Ne.ii:Ll:tan Revolution, the Note concludes in tne!, ; etic term.; : But if, unfortunately, this hope shall be illusory, :i:c KING, and the whole Nation, resolved to defend, nutil die last extremity, the indepen::ence of the Kingdom and the Constitution, the palladium of our rjlts, the firmest support of legitimate Monarchy, are ready to be buried under the ruins of the coun try, sooner than submit to a foreign yoke. The ezample of the heroic resistance of the Spa niards to the despotism of NAPOLEON will animate us ; and if the reports which the Cabinet of Vienna receives from Naples are true, it may be convinced that we do not promise more than we are ready to rerform." The Pa: is Papers of Thursday and Friday have arrived since our last. Th.: proceedings against the individuals implicated is the troubles of the month of June last are still going on. Wednesday, the Court proceeded to interrogate tbr other persons accused ; and the first of these was Ceaatelle, a bronze figure maker, who was accused of having been seen at the head of the mob on the 6th of June. That he denied ; and stated that he only got into the mob ou leaving his work at five in the afternoon. When going to the house of a friend, he heard one man cry—Five TEtapernir ! but, as I he was not an agent of Police, he did not cause him to be arrested. He admitted that he and Duvergier co'ilar ea the man who called Five 1 Tnipereur ! and told him he must cry Five la Marie. Cailleteart, a Student of Law, was next interro gated as to his being present at the funeral of M. Lallemant, who was killed during the riot. At this funeral there were cries of Five la Charte ! Vise Emperrur ! and A bas la Charte ! Duro gier was again interrogated, and said that the Court could not deny that the proceedings with which they were endeavouring to connect him was' part of the march of the counter-revolution. Raret was next examined ; and then they pro-. ceeded to the examination of witnesses. The first proof was as to the existence of the mob, and the cries of Fire la Charte 1 and Five l'Ethperear ! It was also deposed, that Davergier and Cravtelle were arrested at the head of two parties of the populace. The trial was then adjourned till next day. The King of PRUSSIA is said to have declared that he will not recognize the new Government of Pm. tugal.--French Five per Cents. Thursday, 77 fr. 50e A private letter from Frankfort, received last Sa turday, states, that the King of PRUSSIA and the Emperor ALEXANDER have in agitation an ex change of territory. In the conferences held at Troppau, it was proposed that Piussia should cede Dantzic and Thorn to ALEXANDER, for which he was to receive Hamburgh and Frankfort. Great ansiety prevailed at Frankfort, lest the Allies should agree to the above proposition. ADDRESSES TO THE KING. • • An Address to the KING has just been voted at a Meeting of the Tories of the City of L;chfield. Out, of about forty names to the Requisition, thirteen of them were Clergymen. The Address to his MAJESTY from the MAYOR, Corporation, and Inhabitants of the Borough and Town of Lymington, and its neighbourhood, received upwards of 240 signatures, and was on Wednesday last sent to the Right Hon. Lord Viscount SIDMOUTH, to he presented to his MAJESTY. Thursday a Meeting of the MAYOR, Aldermen, and Citizens . t• Chichester, was held in the Council Cham ber, at which it was resolved to present a dutiful and loyal Address to his MAJESTY. An Address of a similar import was voted by the inhabitants of that city and. neiglibourhood. Friday last, a Public Meeting was held at the, Town Hall, Windsor, for the purpose of deciding on an Address to his Majesty, expressive of the loyal, and constitutional fidelity to the Throne, of the in habitants of that Borough and its vicinity. Earl HA novel. read a copy of a Loyal Declaration which' had been adopted at several places.—Mr. Jour, RAMSBOTTOM was desirous that a Committee should be appointed, patticularly as it appeared to hinr that there were parts of the Address which required some modification. The Press, he observed, had been therein generally stigmatised as mercenary and cor rupt ; he could never assent to this attack upon the great bulwark of our liberties; and he might truly say, that if a portion of it was licentious, there were other parts to whose :Airily and integrity every man must bear testinitny—(Great applause).—A Corn mitte.2 nine ;Yeti immediately appointed, who re dred for about half an hour.' The amended Address was then read, when ;t appeared that the sweeping complaint against the Press was modified into a cen sure of " licentious publications;" and that the ge neral tune tendered more temperate will out im pairing its spirit.—lt was finally decided that the A.:dress should remain till Wednesday for signature, and --liould be presented to his Majesty by the Mem bers fer the Borough.

A Morning Paper contains the following article, dated Orleans, November- 23 :—" The renowned BEROA NI I, with his suite, occupying two cart iages, stopped at our Hotel this morning to breakfast. He appeared in good health and excellent spirits—con versed very freely with the maitre d'hotel—said he was going to pass a few days at Paris, and from thence to England, to obey the commands of the QUEEN, who has required his instant presence, to resume his high functions at her Court. K EPPEL CRAVEN, he said, was employed merely as a supernumerary in his absence!! " Monday evening, about eleven o'clock, Mrs. Eliza. beth Dixon, of Selby (a person who kept a small shop opposite the Methodist Chapel), was discovered a lifeless corpse at the foot of the stairs t from the bruises about her head and the blackness of her neck, added to her pockets being torn off, and not a single article to be found on the premises t it is naturally concluded she had been murdered by some person or persons unknown.
