As to the letter of the Princess of Wales, it was only an answer to a proposition of an additibn of 28 thousand a year to her income. She had then said she'saw nothing in the proposition derogatory to her rank or character (indeed it would have been a Won der if she had). He should feel it his duty in the Committee to propose some clause to explain that it was not understood that the Princess had exceeded her income, if he could not, as he should endeavour to do, reduce the Bill to a simple grant of money. Lord CASTLEREAGH explained, that it was In the answer of the Princess of Wales to his second communication which contained a draft of the Bill, shy had used the expressions he had mentioned. The Bill was then read a 2d time, and ordered to be *committed to-rnorro.—,Adiourried. 'HER Hiriesrrs DRdThING ROOM.

Previous to the commencement of the Drawing. room', at two o'clock, the French Ambassador and the Danish Minister were introduced to her MAJESTY by Earl Moitrotr, her Chamberlain, and conducted by Mr. CHESTER, the Assistant Master of the Cere- Monies. They were admitted to a private audience, delivered their 'credentials, and were most graciously received.

To the particulars which we yesterday communi cated respecting the PRINCESS CIIARLOTTE Of WALES we have but little to add. It was not the Archbishop Of CANTERBURY but the Bishop of SALISBURY that attended the PRINCE REGENT on this occasion, and the place to which the Parxcess is to be transferred from Carlton House is Cranbourn Lodge, in Wind sor Forest. It was to compose her spirits and to prepare herself for the introduction of the Ladies who were to attend her, that she asked leave to re tire. What followed we have already stated. The Bishop of Sausnuttit was dispatched after the fugi- rive as soon as her flight was known, to remonstrate with her on the giddiness of her conduct, and to pre pare her to yield obedience to a note, which was soon after carried to Connaught House by the Duke of YORK. By the time that his Royal Highness arrived, the representations of the Bishop, and probably the time that bad intervened for reflection, had made such an impression on the PRINCESS, that she was ready to attend his ROYAL HIOHNEZ to Carlton House. On this subject some of the daily Papers have ex pressed themselves in terms highly indecorous. It cannot be believed that the Prime REGENT'S manner in making his will known to his Daughter would be severe. His taking with him the Bishop of Slit's war, to witness the conversation, is the strongest pledge to the contrary. And, on the other hand, it is easy to find motives for the conduct of the Paincess CIIAULOTTEI different from any thing like a delibe rate intention to offend her father. The alteration made in the arrangements respecting her est:tblish ntetlt came upon her so suddenly, that it is easy to conceive she might be greatly perplexed ; nor can it excite much wonder that, before she had time fur re flection, she should have been surprised into a hasty procedure—not knowing in fact what she was doing. The situation into which her Mother was thrown by the occurrence, may be easily conceived to have been highly embarrassing. The conduct of her Royal Highness on the occasion was prudent. Be fore seeing her daughter, if we understand the facts, she drove to the House of Commons—to solicit the acirke of those she enquired after. She was taken by surpris4 and any person whatever placeci in simi lar circumstances woubl have been gteatly perplexed bow to act. A Hamburgh Mail has arrived. the intelligence from Germany and the north of Europe is of a pleasing description. The Baltic is coveted with merchantmen, and the Continent with waggons, con veying merchandise to and from the out-ports. At Hamburgh the Burgher Guard, and probably the inhabitants, have occasionally insulted the French Officers who still linger there : this is not to be won dered at, but it is truly a matter of surprise that the presence of any of the confederates of DAVOUST in Hainburgh should have been tolerated by the civil and military authorities one hour after the downfall of BONAPARTE ; the Captain c,f the Banditti, wa.: an nounced. The conduct of the Hamburghers verifies the prediction of the dying Mou:.lt.* The atroci ties directed by this villain (alluding to BONAPARTE) will m ike the French name execrated t!.rovahout the world." The inhabitants of Moscow hive celebr:,•ed the capture of Paris by a gralld festival : nu per... , n: have better right. We rejoice to learn that the voluntary and unre served innexation of Norway to Sweden is regarded as certain.—The following are extracts from the above Mail : " MOSCOW, MAY 28. . - - " The taking of Paris has becn celebrated here with great solemnity. His Eminence Augustin held a very eloquent discourse in the cathedral church, in which, addressing Moscow, he said, " Thy ruins will be eternal monuments of the wonders of GOD'S goodness and justice, which were displayed in thee to Russia and all Europe; and the resection of the flames that destroyed thy beauty, will shew to future ages that thou wast the victim of the redemption not only of our beloved country, but of all Europe, from .the heavy yoke of an ambitious t 3 rant." " COPENHAGEN; MIS 2. " The measures against the property of French subjects are now ordered to cease, only the sequestra tion of prizes brought by French privateers into the ports of the Duchies is still to continue. ~ Two Major-Generals, several Civil Officers, and 18 Sea Officers, who have taken the oaths to Nor way, have been struck off the list of Danish Officers. " ELSINEUR, JUNE 25. 64 A great number of ships, among which is a long expected convoy from London, has passed the Sound within these few days. The sight of many hundred Merchant ships, of differeat nations, in our Roads, is new to us, alter so many years interruption ; three hundred and sixty-nine ships have paid the Sound duty within these five day s."— "Mona Mercury, July 7. " BRUNSWICK, JUNE 28. 64 Count Goele has delivered his credentials as Minister from the King of Prussia." " NORWAY, UINL• co. " The ports of Nem ay arc now blockaded by four Russian, four English, and four Swedish frigates.— The Norwegian army, according to the lists, consists of 32,000 infantry and 4000 hcrse, of which only 5000 are now in active service ; kit all the inhabi tants of the valleys are inscribed as volunteers. 44 The Swedish army, by the decision of the Diet in ISI2, consists of 6t1,000 men, but there is gill all appearance of an amicable adjustment." " FRANK l', JUNE 28. " The future Constitution of Germany seems de cided ; a representative system ; the subordination of the smaller Princes ; a powerful Head (probably Austria, perhaps Prussia) ; Prussia and Bavaria bulwarks against France, which is always dangerous and suspicious; several flee Cities, Hamburgh, Brerrien, &c. " About the Ist of July the Emperor of Russia and the King of Prussia are expected at Mentz, which city, it is supposed, Will be entirely given up to Prussia. " On the 21st a part of the French garrison of Magdeburg marched into Treves, and soon after a battalion of Austrians, with green boughs in their bats ; the French murmured, but no disturbance took place, and they vented their anger in a bon mot : Lainez let, ce n'ett que du fourrage." The French are secretly drawing together again the conscripts who at first were sent home." Accounts from Bayreuth, which are stated as authentic, assert that Prussia is to receive, " 1. All Saxony, except the Ertzgebirge, which falls to Austria . " 2. Mentz, Treves, and Cologne. " 3. The Bishoprick of Liege, Maestricht, and Luxemburg. " 4. All Swedish Pomerania. " 5. Besides its former possessions in Poland, from Thorn, Pasen, along the Warta, as far as Teachen. " 6. From England, 35 millions in ready money, advanced for France, for which England retains possession of the French Colonies. " 7. /ingland obtains all the Netherlands, and cedes Hanover to Prussia, " 8. Prussia cedes to Saxe Weimar, Erfurt and Eruksfeld ; be• sides which, Weimar is to have also Fulda Bainburs. " 9. Prince Winians is to be Governor of Saxony, and to re side at Dresden." " HAMBURGH, JULY 5. •" General Benningsen has written a letter to the Senate, in which he states, that in spite of all previous warnings, two of the Burger Guard have publicly insulted and ill-treated a French Capt iin, that being arrested and convicted before a Court-martial, they were sentenced, one to be shot before the front of the regiment, the other to run the gauntlet through 4000 men ; that, Lowever, he, the General, has annulled the seateace, an.i :caves their punishment to the Se. nate. in Order to give a prf of of the re.pect with which the patriotism, the courage and intrepidity of their former colnr4des In Tired him while Under his comm intl. The Si-natt, in r bblisling this prodf of mildness to the criminals, and this honnurahle testi mony to the grad c-ncict of .he corps, hopes that no further excesses of WS kind w 11 be committed. " The Senate returns thanks to the Hanseatic Lt. pion for its distinguished se: vices ; and infrrms the troops, that every one who now clur•o es to leave it And return to his usual occupation, may have his discharge on ant; ing to kis 0ffu....r." rim . AR Mr. O,i the 9.h inc:lnt, the foihnirink Regiments Of Foot arrived in Cork Harbour, froM Wmideaux : the 11th, 27th, 32d, 36th, 41d, and 61st. As the King's Gem:An Heavy Dral.!oons were on their route from Abbeville to Boulogne, thence to embark for Fnglan.l, they Suddenly receives orders, about the 6th instant, to march to Brussels, where they are erpected to :main until alter the breaking . - up of the Ci , :e i .ress. In consequence of the many-dtiels at Paris bemetin the French and Foreign Officers, a:t ot der has been issued by the British Generals in France, so prevent the English Officers from apraring in regimentdis in Paris, excepting whet presented at the French Court. The Officers of the kepi Scots hate placed a neat marble Monument in the Church-y.trd of Sr. Etienne * over the grave of the late Major• General HAY, with the following : Thi A omb is placed Ittra By the Officeri of the stl Battalion Ist Royal Scots Regt. of Foot, As a testimony of respect, to the Memory of 1 he late Makr-Getrerr ANDREW litir Commanding the Brigade, SiltDivirion, of the Bri•isit Army in France: Who gallantly fell, on th• morning of the 14th of April, 1814, in defence of the ground in which his body is depo•tted, Aged 52 years. The late Major• General ANDREW HAY began his military career in the Royal Scots, in which regiment he served as Ensign, Lieutenant, and Captain ; and as Lieu:enant•Colo►icl of the 3d Battalion of that corps, he shared with it the fatigues of the arduous campaign in Spain under the late General Sit JOHN MoottE. The 3d Battalion of the Royals was also under General HAY'S command in Walcheren, where, during the siege of Flushing, it greatly distinguished itself. Major-General HAY was appointed to a bri gade of the Army in the Peninsula, of which the Royal Scots formed a part, under-the Duke of WEL LINGTON, which brigade continued under the General's command during the whole of that memorable and gipious campaign, until he fell defending the church of St. Etienne, in front of Bayonne, after a servic e of S 5 years. CODEX ALEXANDRINUS. We observe by Papers relating to the Codex Alex. andrima, printed by order of the House 'if Commons, that there is some intention to have a fact simile of this import:int doCument printed at the public es pence. We hope nothing will prevent the exetutidn of so desirable a work ; but we would earnestly re commend that in place of '250 copies, tho number proposed to be printed, there should be at least 750 or 1(X)0 taken off. The additional expence will only be that of paper and press-work, and the individual expence of each copy would thereby be reduced milks than one half, so that the copies in place of costing about £3O, would cost ot:17 about 0.12 or £l5. The extra copies should be said which would tend to diminish the expence to the public. Wd earnestly recommend this to the consideration of Parliament. If the world is to be served by the publication of so valuable a document, let it be done EFFECTUALLY. We congratulate the Students in Italian Literature on the publi:ation of a very usJul little volume, In that language, cal;ed Tkr Re "der," from the pen of M. SANTAGNLLLo, Author of the Italian Cr immar, &c It consists of Extracts from the most celebrated Italian Writers, in hose and Verse, begin ning with SOAVE and ending with DANTP, illustrated with Notes, forming a series of progressive lessons, by the study of which the scholar will be enabled to read and properly understand the Works of each Writer. We have no hesitation ill recommending it as one cf the most useful school manuals that has yet appeared. DEAL, JULY It—Arrived his Majesty's ship JASOX, Captain KING, from Boulogne, where she landed Field-Marshal &valets. There are only five sail of the homeward-bona Jamaica Fleet unaccounted for, all the rest having arrived. On the 27th ult. there was in the Imperial bastion, at Leipsic, before the Black-gate, where ►he powder taken from the French had been placed, a dteadfulez plosion. The number of persons killed or wounded was 28. No public building suffered. The iatre. pidity and presence of mind of the Russian and Saxon troops saved Dresden from a much greater mischief. They put out the fire which took place im mediately after the explosion, anJ which would soon have reached three hundred barrels of powder that were in the bastion. The report of the death of the occupier of the house which was devoured by the flames in Lambeth Walk is unfounded. Mr. Kent is confined to his bed in a distressing state, by bring burnt; in his endea vours to save the premises, in the hands and on his right leg, which is in a most deplorable state• It has been already stated that nut a vestige was saved, and the premises were not insured. It is highly creditable to the huinanity of the LambethVesti y, that they have opened a subscription to alleviate the distresses of an industrious couple and sis: children, now destitute and pennyless ! _ _ - - eMITHFIELD MARKET, JULY Is, Beef 51 Od to tis 0.!
