" LIMERICK, NOVEM/3Eit 12. o The account of the melancholy and unexpected dt:Z. (.1 the Princes CHARLOTTE was received in this city by every class of its inhabitants, with the greatest regret—nearly a general suspension of business took elate, and yesterday all the shops were closed. The Cathedral bells still continue to toll, the' ,hips in the harbour have their fi igs displayed half• bigh, the several guards mount without music, in tact, every respect that is possible is shown on ti is national calamity. , g Among the various expressions of feeling occa iioned by the dejecting contents of Thursday's Mail, the °dicers of the 77th Regiment, quartered here, inst4r.taneously declined their intended festivities, lital for Monday evening; they had selected that day for the purpose of returning to their friends the : Acts of attention expetismced by the individuals of ielte corps, daring their residence in. Limerick, and • ihe quarters of the District, and had -snack every 'preparation that hospitality could dictate, for the rc. ccption of one hundred and fifty. “ although the circumstances under which the intended meeting was arranged, did not contemplate the opportune realisation of Britains' brightest hopes, still the favourable report on Sunday, held out to them the prospect that the proud burst of loyalty attendant on the consummation of our anxious hopes and ardent prayers, would have added a tenfold zest to the warm glow of social intercourse. a In the sudden and hurried manner in which they fit off their friends, they but anticipated the general feeling of every individual ; for the overwhelming taunt of the calamity must throw a damp on every thinking mind. • • • " Tire following is the noti fi cation issued by the !TIM on the occasion; The Olken of the 77th Regiment feel that no apology is rupdsitein,he suddenly and publicly notifying to their various friand, of Limerick, and he neighbourhood, that their Ball int.n- Ard fot this evening, cannot now take place, in ainsequenciof *diary calamity has pleased the Assuatire to inflict upep Ms Nation." At the Roman Catholic Chapel in Warwick -street, Golden•square, on Wednesday, during the course of, the solemn service was introduced the beautiful trio In to Demise *crave, ass coalmine in eternunt." fine snit plaintive style of the music (so highly ap signpriate to the occasion), and the able manner in which it was executed by Messrs. LENNARD, BOURIC, sod NALDI, produced an impressive' effect on the grtgatoon.

In the Litany, alter we humbly beseech thee, the following occasional Prayer was read, which was lis tened to with profound attention by a crowded con tegati!us 1 • "0 Almighty God, who in 07*kt:tents nemernbeeest merey, deign to look down with complesion on 'by humbled and afflicted saw*, who now implore thy fatherly aid and protection. Let the light of thy linty Spirit set before us the sins and lollies of our hens; let it teach Us to reverence the mysteries,' ways of thy providence, said reveal to us the gracious purposes for which thy duitteentente ire Mt. _ *We confess that we have bad idols in the world, which for a dine might havewithdrawn nor iboughis from thee, and made cease to reverence, as we ought, the nimbi of thy revealed weed. In the days of health sod &duets. prosperity, and hope we weranot afraid 'easy terror by night, nor for the arrow rba; lich by day.' We forgot that tits world is not our ab.ding ° plate; and that the treasures which thou designed to bestow ou 'Si, were canted in earthen vessels, easily broken, and soon to be destroyed. " Teach as, A father of mercies, and God of all comfort, under the awful judgments which now oppress as, patience and mis treat* to thy divine will. May we learn bent-north to withdraw ear affection from the world, and place them with greater coc kney on thee, our God. Let us Dever forget, that even thine own beloved ion condescended for our minion and instruction to become `a man of sorra**, and acquainted with grief.' Others have been enlisted in this world retrial a' well as ourselves, and by hemiliatios and repentance, have at length been restored to peace. " Grant,o merciful Father, if itshoold please thee, in doe time, to thew us again du ligheof thy countmance, and to be merciful .114 to its, that, thinking all other things of little Worth, we may time the grant to imitate the bright rumple we have just lost, sod wive thee with increase of fear, faith, and lam. Whatever lay be oursulferinp and sorrows, we will never lose our trust and Alms is thee; and remembering the gracious promises of thy revealed word,We win still humbly hope to share thy bless. logs here: but 0 blessed Lord God, if it wens at to thy Delos Winioni to withhold them from us' Thy will be done.' " finally, to phew that we are disposed to serve thee with a faithful and true heart, may we always ascribe the chastisements which we receive, to thy koe, nut to thine anger; and, by Ima ms us to overcome the wink', may they prepare us by faith, re goatiori and obedience, for the enjoyment of everlasting fife, through the merits and medial*. of thy eon, Jesus Christ our Atneti." On the day of the funeral of the late Princess Cuant,orrs, the Members of the Jewish community, invous to testify their grief and loyalty, assembled in diet' several synagogues, and petformed service ap propriate to the Occasion: lit that of Duke's Place, the Chief Rabbi deliveted a very emplistic discouFse; and a dirge, composed by Mr. HURwITE, of Higit gate, was chaunted with great solemnity. The as. semblage was both numerous and respectable. ARTIER? BniToNs.—Of the numerous mournful displays of honour and respect paid to the memory of our late deceased most amiable and lamented Prin cess CHARLOTTE of WaLlts, not one was more appro. priate and orderly in its appearance and procession, or did greater credit to its promoters, than that de voted by the preeminent establishment of se The Loyal and Patriotic Institution of Aitient Britons, London." The Treasurer, &c. met at the School house, in Gray's Inn-road, early on the morning of Wednesday last, in order to manifest the sincerity t their sorrow, for the unexpected death of the only and dearly beloved Child of their most munificent Prince and Patron ;•whence they proceeded to hear service performed by Mr. DANIEL WiLsota, at St. John's Chapel, Bedford-row, in the following order : The Treasurer, the Two Vice-Treasurers, Chaption, and Secretary, all in lull m•turning, followed by eighty boys of the Charity, (two deep), .• ith black crape tied round their lett arms—the School master, preceding twenty-five girls of the same Charity, with black crape tied over white bonnets, closing this impressive prOceSsiolt by the Govern( ss and others of the domestic establishment—the whole exhibiting a truly mournful and solemn scene. Alter the ordinary Serv,ce, which was performed in the most affecting manner, this good and pious Minister of the Gospel, with eloquence peculiar to himself, and in a language most pathetic, delivered a most superior discourse on this melancholy occasion, taking his text from sth Lamentations, verses 15, 16, 17s in which he expatiated at large un the uncertainty of all sublunary possessions, and the boundless virtues of our late departed and beloved PatticEis, and the irre parable national lots sostained by her death; during which the whole congregation, and particularly these poor children of Welsh parentage, were most ten derly affected, and melted into grief and tears, at this truly dreadful calamity; nor was there an auditor who was not ore. whelmed by sorrow and distress be yond any instance ever before publicly witnessed. ANECDOTE OF THa PRINCE% CH A RLOTTS.—• While the following well-authenticated anecdote bespeaks an exalted spirit, it adds to our Oct that such an ami. able, virtuous being, should be lost to us for ever : " Some years ago a foreigner (not now in England) gave her Royal Highness the -Princess CHARLOTTE lessons in singing and music. On one occasion her Royal Highness performed to a large party, at War wick-house, and was of curse higi s l e y rr a e pplauded, but she was conscious she did not it. Turning round to her 'reacher, she asked his opinion—he said th it she sung delightfully, and played charmingly.— Her Royal Highness took no further notice of the matter then, but when the Signior called next, one of the Hauseliold was desired to pay him, and at the same time to sal...that her Royal Highness could not expect to profit by the instructions of a person who was mean enough to flatter her against his rea son, and who had not candour to tell her when she was wrong, but suffer her to expose herself." THE THEATRES. It is with real pain that we feel obliged to resnme our brief record of dramatic exhibition, in any other than that pleased and indulgent feeling which we have always manifested for this great, and, when pro. perly conducted, most improving source of entertain ment. But neither is our cause of displeasure of a nature that admits of the tolerance of silence; nor would silence become the superior duty which wr owe of doing justice to the public at large—lnsulted as it has been in its tenderest point, and attempted to be implicated in a disgrace at which' it revolts. On Wedassday the World saw the whole English N tion as one family weeping the loss of their best.beloved —On the very next Jay, one of its two principal Theatres (Covent•tiarden) thought fit to announce that it would reopen in the evening with—what I— ' a Dirge—a M mody—an Oratorio—a Tragedy t No . .— z with CoallC OPERA! Even while the inneral koelkot or lamented ?JUNCOS was yet toping, mast this annum 'mem have been committed to - she press wlficir t.l give iis shame to the etnelsl• How have' the inhaoitant , the Metropolis treated this cruel insult on their feelings?

No, they muse have been say thing but rod company. indeed, to whom the loie airs even of a Miasmic, or the comi. calities of a LIsToN, could have attraction, at a moment of such recent and deep afffetion. The other great !lucre, Drurg.Last, presented a very different example—it remained closed. A solemn performance of music suitable to our late melancholy loss, and selected by a musical professor of i great taste and experience, is announced for to-night, for the benevolent purpose of assisting the poorer CIAO of dependents on the Establishment ; but the routine of the regular Drama, at that Theatre, is hot to be resumed till Monday. The propriety and decorum of this mode of proceeding require no comment. Yesterday the Dote of Your; visited the Pasema g RILOENT at. Carleton House.

In the Chamber of Deputies. on Monday, an Ad dress to the KING, as reported by a Como ittee of the whole House, was agreed to, and a deputatien ap pointed to present it to his MAJESTY. Baron PASQUZEII, the Keeper of the Seals, aftei.. wards submitted to the Chamber a new Project of Law on the Liberty of the Press. It consists of 27 Articles, and is described by its author as having' two leading objects in view : first, to ensure the exer cise of one of the liberties consecrated by the Charter, by giving to the Government the means of separa .ing the legitimate use which may be made of that liberty from the abuse to which it is liable; and, se -et/tut. to preserve to the Government of the KING the extraordinary power entrusted into his hands last Ses sion, and which, in spite of the ameisoration uf cir cumstances, the political situatioh of the kingdom is said still to demand. " The state of the kingdoth," said M. PASQUIP.II, " is without doubt much improved I but !till it is n. t -sshat it ought to be. It is nectssary that we blinuiJ not lightly hazard our safety by eitoritnents. Let us not deceive ourselves —it is not less dangerous for a people to exaggerate than to tniervaluo their strength ; our political manners are forming, but they are not yet formed." M. PASQUIIR having con chided, the Project was appointed to be taken Into farther consideration on Thursday. A private letter from Wirtemberg states, that a great change has taken place in the Ministry of that Court. M. Kaman, who was Minister of the Inte 'tor, has retired, and been succeeded by M. Chro, President MALCIIUS has been provisionally entrusted with the Ministry of Finances heli by M. OTTO and the Privy Councillor NAraa►TH, has displaced M. de Lime in the Ministry of Justice. The result of this change is expected to be an entire new organiza tion of the Government, Administrative, M.litary and Financial, and an immediate assembling of the Dieu which has been so improperly dismissed. The Journal which announced, on the pretended authority of a letter from Cadiz, that the Russian Squadron purchased by Spain had arrived there, now contradicts the report. Indeed it was most evidently premature. Five per Cents. 17th Nov.-65fr. sc. EAST-INDIES. Frnm the late ukbars received (April SO).

The article from the National Mai page (the Official Journal), respecting tbe• Spanish South American Provinces, deserves. attention. It states two questions—the expediency of assisting, by their arms, the embryo governments. who have not yet expelled the Spaniards—and the expediency in recognizing the independence of those provinces which have declared, and, hiterto maintained their independence ? „Tbe first is supposed not to be main tainable : but the second to be deserving of much attention. Already the Hags of the States of Buenos r Ayres, Chili, and Venezuela .are now recognized, though their Ministers . are not, but act sub rota. The tone of the article is evidently in favour of the ac. knowledgment of the New States—but it is possible that it may, for the present, be only a rust de sue;re intended to operate in the discussions .now supposed to be carrying on between the Ministers of FESDIN4IIII) and those of the United States. INCLItooN IN Amearca.—:the following account of this eminent and national singer is from the Colust-.

In this cha racter he very appropriately introduced the song, N Ere around the huge oak," which he sung in so phasing a manner, that it was warmly encored. He also sung a new intuit* song, entitled, " Hail, Co-, lurabia, or thdb`hth.place of Liberty," with beautiful accom . panimint% *Mai was received with rapturous, applause, arfil encored. Bat by far his happiesc.efd 'tort was lathe favourite old ballad of " Buck-cynd Susan," in which the beautiful simplicity of the reran, the richness and clearness of tone of the singer, and the pathos of his manner, quite enraptured the au dience. An awftil stillness was imposed until 'he! tionclusion of each verse, when universal admiration broke forth in the most enthusiastic acclamations indeed, after it had been twice sung, thej fain would Xs/reheard it again.
