At ten o'clock this morning the different parties ftrming the Procession assembled in the East division of Queen-street, and proceeded to Leith about a quar ter past ten, in the reverse order of that by which frey were to return. " At ten minutes past twelve his 'MAJEsry's dis embarkation was announced by a Royal salute from lE.: ships in the Roads. The three hours previous had been occsrpied by all classes flocking to their dif lerent s:anccs Y )rk-place was more like Piccadilly ef a Sunday about four o'clock—being one of the finest streets in the world, it is occupied by those of great rank and fortune. " Accordingly this street and Picardy-place, which is a continuation of it, was in a constant buz, from the rattling of carriages. The windows were crowded by elegantly dressed Ladies, as were the whole scaf foldings in Leith-walk ; those also in the St. Andrew's streets and square, Princes -street, and the Regent- Bridge. The Calton Hill was one mass of peo ylc.—About a few minutes before one his MAJESTY passed the windows in which I was, in an open cart iage, with eight bays, elegantly caparisoned. He vas accompanied by the Duke of Donser and a:lother Nobleman, pronounced by some to be Lord C .arrrcA RT, and by others the Marquis of WINCHESTER. " One of the Royal carriages, closed at the top, prec6.led his MAJESTY. " Alter his MAJEsry passed, I hastened through I.clow the Regent's-bridge, and ascended on the south s::ie of the Calton-hill, where I took my post on some on the south side cf the new London-road. :Here his MAJESTY passed within a few yards of me; :Ind on the north side of the road, being the Calton hill, stood thousands, waving their handkerchiefs and hats. This had a singular effect. A band on one Height mig4rt have saved their music—it was drowned in huzzas. 4 Never, never,' said a Noble Baron, did I witness so splendid a scene!' Every one in their best sult,• adorned with cockades in their hats and breasts, and medals suspended from the neck. Those who could afford it, very generally conformed them selves to the request of the Magistrates, by appearing in blue coats, white or light-coloured vests, and light trusyse: s. i! The bells rang a merry peal, but no salute was fired on his MAJESTY'S progress, owing, as it was said, to his Mosarry's bones not relishing it. He was saluted on his getting on board the barge, on his landing, and on his arriving at Holyrood PAlace; and here he was saluted as he stepped from his car riage by the guns on the Calton Hill and Salisbury Crags, alternately. The assembly of people, so well dressed, must have struck his MAJESTY with asto- 1 nishment. Dublin could not have exceeded, hardly Lave equllled it. 4 , His MAJESTY arrived at Holyrood Palace at twenty-five minutes before two o'clock. The Judges had previously been ranged round the room in which was the Throne ; the Royal Archers marching in, lined the room in front of the Judges; they were under the orders of the Earl of HOPETOUIi s Captain- General. " His Kuser: now entered, and as he seated himself on the Throne, raised his hat. a The Knight Marischal, Sir ALIZANDER KEITH, now entered from the bottom of the room, bearing the Crown, and attended by his Esquires—they all kneeled. The Doke of HAMILTON was called for— a.lvanced—and took the Crown to a side table. " The Knight Matischal now retired with his at. tendants. " The LORD PRIUDZITT, With SIM Of SID atitAdaDts. " To-morrow was fixed for the Levee, but Satur- - day is now talked of. His MAJESTY was in great spirits in the Palace, and all were of opinion he felt he was welcome. I observed that his MAJESTY talked to one of the Archers walking at the door of his carriage, during the Procession. " His MAJESTY was received at Leith by the Ma- gistrates and all the Trades; one body of the latter' had the coarse blue coat and ark blue broad-rimmed 'bonnet, the real dress of the Scottish Lowlander. " Sir ALEXANDER KEITH was splendid as Knight Marischal, and so was the Earl of ERROL as Lord High Constable, the latter really a handsome young man. The Earl of FIFE'S carriage followed the body of Highlanders. He had four running footmen and three outriders, and two footmen all in tartan. " It is needless to add that Leith was one solid mass of pelple, and it was with much difficulty order' could be preserved. The skips in the Roads have a beau tiful appearance, their flags adorning their rigging." Fiunmr, Fivi P. M. Ilis MAJESTY passed a pleasant night at Dalkeith, and is to-day in excellent health. Sir E. NAGLE has mentioned to us, that the KING was more delighted with yesterday's proceedings than with auy spectacle of the kind he ever witnessed. TO HIS MOST GRACIOUS MAJESTY. Dear Sire, I am a Perthshire lad, And freely maun declare, There's mony a Scottish subject would Be blithe to see ye there : And if ye cross the Tay, my Liege, I hope it will be soon; Wi hearts se love and loyalty, We'll crown ye, then, at Scoone! J. BISSET. THE LATE MARQUIS OF LONDONDERRY. We have already stated that the remains of the lamented Marquis will be interred tamm row by the side of those of his friend, the immortal PITT, in Westminster Abbey. Saturday night the arrangements for the funeral were made in the Abbey. During the day the work men were employed to complete the grave, and the carpenters erected round the vault a platform of con siderable size for the persons attending the funeral to stand upon during the solemnity. The coffin is covered with fine crimson velvet, or namented with richly gilt furniture ; and the plate is silver gilt, on which is the following inscription : " The Most Honourable Roam Marquis of LONDONDMT, Earl of LONDONDERRY, Viscount CASTLMAGIi s Baron Lonnon- DEM in Ireland, Knight of the Most Noble Order of the Gar ter; one of his Majesty's Most Honourable Privy Council, and his principal S.mretary of State for Foreign Affairs. Burn June 15th, 1769. Died August 12th, 1829." At a late hour last night the body was brought to town from North Cray. The funeral procession will move from St. James's-square at ten o'clock to-mor row morning precisely. It will pass through the square, along Pall-mall, Cockspur-street, Charing cross, Whitehall, Parliament-street, direct to the 'with entrance of the Abbey, where it will be met by the Dean and Minor Canons. The body will be taken direct to the grave (cot to the Communion), and the Funeral Service will be read over the grave. The grief of the Marchioness has assumed the cha racter of a calm melancholy. She is sometimes for hours together almost without speaking to those about her, and a settled gloom at these times appears to hang over her mind. Her nearest friends are appre hensive of serious consequences to her health. Tier Ladyship walks for a short time every evening in the Shrubbery, attended by Lady SUFFIELD or Lady IEMMA EDGECUMBE, and sometimes by both those - Ladies, who are extremely assiduous in their atten tions to the Noble Lady. Last night Dr. IRELAND, the Dean of Westmin ster, arrived in town from his seat, near Oxford, for the purpose of being present at the funeral of the Marquis of LONDONDERRY. _ _ We are duly authorised and particularly requested to state, that the accounts which have appeared in some of the Morning and Evening Papers, of dif ferences having arisen between the KING and the late Marquis of LONDONDERRY, are totally void of foun dation. Equally unfounded are must of the other ' statements which have so strangely obtained circula tion in the course of last week, through the Same channels, on the subject of the lamented death of the Noble Marquis.—Morning Post. On the day of the prorogation of Parliament, a friend of the Marquis of LONDONDERRY addressed him, and said he had no doubt but that he was glad the S.:ssion was closed, as it must be a great ease to his mind. The Noble Marquis replied, with a deep sigh, " Ah ! that House will be the cigith of me!" , k . • Jet - . 'FR E EVENING - LON I kON.. MONDAY, AUGUST 19, 1 522. STOCK EXCHANGE, 'ONE O'CLOCK.

We have this day the pleasure of giving the most ample details of his MAJESTY'S entry into the City of Edißburgh on Thursday last, after a voyage unusually tedious. The reception of his MAJESTYhaS been such as might have been expected from a people who com bine' the intellectual refinements of the age with the chivalrous spirit of the days of old. Scotland has ever been distinguished for its attachment to its Kings ;•and we are persuaded that the warmest ad vocates of the exiled STUARTS never sighed more ar dently for " CHARLIE back again," than all Scot land has done for his Majesty GEORGE IV. to whom they now give so joyous a welcome.

COURT OF CHANCERY.-THIS DAY. In the case of HORATIO REEVE and DRUSTLLA STREET, Mr. Harr made an application on behalf of George Reeve, the brother of Horatio Reeve, who were both committed to the Fleet Prison, for running away with a young woman of the name of Drusilla Street, in contempt of the Court. The applie: cation was that Geo. Reeve be discharged, and it was wounded on an affidavit, the substance of which was—that George Reeve was a Naval Officer, who really had no wish to further the ob ject of the marriage of his brother and this young woman; that be was much irritated by confinement, which his Physician de. clared would increase and be dangerous to his health if it fur. ther continued, &c. Upon which Mr. Holism, Counsel for the plaintiff, said that he should not oppose his enlargement. The Loan CHANCELLOR then ordered George Reeve to be discharged; but, afterwards, on the snotion of Mr. Holes, his Lordship further ordered, that the person thus discharged should be restrained from access to the young lady. MOTIONS. On an application for leave to make a motion, notwithitand ing his Lordship's peremptory declaration a fortnight ago, that he would not hear any, The Loan Ceuta:mks said, " T have no disinclination to hear this,or any other motion,but.really, my attention has been so wearied,by the various subjects I have had to consider for the last ten months, chat I am afraid I should do more injustice than justice if T were to take any motions now : I am very sorry to decline doing (what, by the way, none of my predecessors ever / did), that is, to sit so closely in the long vacation as I have done; but it is a duty I owe to the suitors of this Court, not to apply my attention beyond my power of duly dispatching bold ness, for now I really have not sufficient strength for it, besides, I certainly have an affectionate regard for the lives and comforts of Gentlemen at the Bar; for I remember, when I was at the bar myself, I had no inclination to be put to death for want of a holiday." The Duke of Sussex and his friends are expected at Yolk Races.

The following is a Copy of the Decision of the Emperor of Russia, upon the question submitted to him by the Governments of the United States of America and Great Britain, by virtue of the Conven tion of the 20th October, 1818, of the true intent and meaning of that part of the first Article of the Treaty of Ghent : " The Emperor is of opinion, that the United States of Ame rica are entitled to a just indemnification from Great Britain for all private property carried away by the British forces ; and as the question regards slaves more especially, for all such slaves as were carried away by the British forces, from the places and territories of which the restitution was stipulated by the Treaty, in quitting the said places and territories. " That the United Sates are entitled to consider, as having been so carried away, all such slaves as may have been trans ported, from the abovementioned territories on board of the British vessels within the waters of the said territories, and who for this reason have not been restored. " But if there should be any American slaves who were car ried away from territories of which the Ist Article of the Treaty of Ghent has not stipulated the restitution to the United states, the States are net to claim an indemnification for the said slaves." As many of our oldest friends and supporters are deeply interested in the Negro population in the West India Islands and Colonies, we beg leave to call their particular attention to an extract of a letter received by us this day from Charleston. The known re spectability of the writer adds much weight to its importance. The horrible conspiracy which it deve lopes cannot but be interesting to all persons con nected with the West Indies, and demands the parti cular attention of the Governors of these Islands to all persons who may visit them from St. Domingo, where the horrible plot has been partly matured : di CHARLESTON, JULY 10. " By the United States Papers you will observe that six Negroes have been executed, and five more ordered for execu tion on Friday next, for being concerned in an insurrection to have broken out on the 4th inst. but happily detected by the servant of a Gentleman with whom lam well acquainted. Three of these five have been respited for a week, in consequence of their extreme agitation of body and mind, which has induced them to promise to divulge the whole plan, which, I am in formed was matured in St. Domingo, and the principal agent, a block Preacher,one of t hose executed,had been there on this mission• When the whole is disclosed, I am told it is to be pub lished ; in the meantime the utmost sccresy is observed, to try and detect the miscreant whites who have instigated these de luded wretches, and who at present escape, because black testi mony will not be taken. Several of the Gentlemen's coachmen are registered, who were to have given up their masters' horses for the mounted bady ; and the Secretary, who superintended a livery stably, a clever fellow, was to throw open the stables to mount the Colonels, composed of a ringleader of influence in each Ward, to concentrate their forces with that. from the neigh bourhood, murder all the white population, seize upon all the property time would permit, put it on board the shipping in the harbour, and proceed for St. Domingo. Such lam told by one of the first characters in this place is the outline : certain it is, a very strong civil and military guard is kept up night and day, on which duty your humble servant has been obliged to perform, at the risk of my life from the heavy dews. It is to be feared that, this plot being found out, they will seek for revenge and fire the town. You may rely upon it the people here are very much alarmed." The French Papers of Thursday have been received. Friday being the Festival of the Assumption, no journals were pub lished. The Moniteur of Thursday gives the issue of the trials at Colmar. The prosecution demanded the heads of about fifty persons accused; thelury has, however, only found four of theta guilty, and that of not remating the existence of a conspiracy, which took the capital charge away. These four individuals, Colonels Tether and Pains's, and the inferior Officers Guinand and Dublar, were therefore only con demned to five years imprisonment, together with a fine of Son
