LONDON. FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 9. 1821• LOAD MATO/eS DAY.—Holiday at the Bank. In the STAR of yesterday, we exclusively announced the arrival of dispatches at the Marquis of LONDON.. DERR Y's Office, mentioning the arrival of the KING at Ramsgate on the night preceding. We have now the satisfaction of finding that intelligence confirmed, and to congratulate our Readers on the return of his MAJESTY to his Capital, in the plenitude of health and strength. This gratifying event took place a few minutes after six o'clock yesterday evening. It was generally unexpected at the time, as it was thought scarcely possible that his MAJESTY should be able to reach town before to-morrow, The firing of the Park guns, however, and the merry peals sent forth by all the neighbouring steeples, soon informed the Public that the Metropolis once more possessed her beloved MONARCH. All was bustle in a moment : the Park was filled, as well as the environs of Carlton Palace, and up to a late hour last night groups of respectable persons promenaded Pall-Mall, where, notwithstanding the want of preparation, several houses were speedily illuminated. The following are the details of his MAJories pas sage from Calais and journey to town: Arrangements were made for his MAJESTY'S pro ceeding from Calais up the River Thames, and to land at Greenwich, provided the wind had been fa vourable. A little before eight o'clock yesterday morning two of his MAJESTY'S travelling carriages and four horses, with three outriders, left the Royal stables attached to the King's Palace in Pall-Mall, for Greenwich. About three o'clock in the afternoon. an escort of Light Horse went to Greenwich. Captain RICHBELL, at the bead of the Thames Police, with forty officers, dropped down the River to Greenwich in their yacht or Thames Police vessel. Sir RICHARD BIRNIE, Chief Magistrate of Police, with a pasty of Bow-street officers, was in attend ance at Greenwich in the afternoon. Sir RICHARD BIRNIE also stationed a party of officers on the Kent road between Greenwich and London, likewise ano ther party in St. George's-fields. A great concourse of people were collected in Greenwich in consequence of the arrangements for the arrival of the KING there, waiting in eager expectation of the honour of first seeing their beloved KING on his return to England; and at one time it was reported that the steam-vessel having the KING on board was actually in view: this eager expectation continued till it was known that one of the sets of the KING'S horses had left Green wich by direction of one of the KING'S footmen to meet his MAJESTY on the Kent-road, he having landed at another place. The horses proceeded to waras Dartford, and met the KING'S carriage six miles this side of Dartford, where they changed with the post horses. Two of the Gentlemen of his MAJESTY ' S suite arrived in town about four o'clock yesterday, and announced at the King's Palace in Pall-Mall, that his MAJESTY ' s arrival might very shortly be ex pected, and that dinner was to be ready not later than seven o'clock. His MAJESTY and suite arrived in Calais a little before seven o'clock on Wednesday evening, and proceeded to Quilliack's Hotel, where his MAJESTY was received by his Excellency Sir C. STEWART, our Ambassador at the Court of France, who introduced to the KING several French Noblemen, who had the honour of dining with his MAJESTY. The KING gave an audience to the Duke &As:common. His MAJESTY S Royal yacht being in readiness to receive him, the KING determined on sleeping on board, and about ten o'clock entered the vessel.— She set sail with all possible speed soon after ; between two and three o'clock she cast anchor in the Downs, and at eight o'clock yesterday morning they raised the anchor and sailed ; and, at about half-past nine o'clock, being off Ramsgate harbour, and the wind favourable, his MAJESTY went on those there; where he was received with every demonstration of respect and rejoicing, which the short notice of the honour of his presence would admit of. His MAJESTY left Ramsgate as soon as his foreign travelling car riage could be got ready for his departure, and pro ceeded on his way to London. Through every town that he passed he was received by all ranks with acclamations and marks of attachment, particularly in Canterbury. An outrider arrived at the King's Palace, in Pall- Mall, about five minutes before six o'clock yesterday evening, announcing the KING'S near approach, and that his arrival would not be deferred longer than a (p.m ter of an hour. At five minutes past six his MA- Jr.4Tv entered the Palace-yard, accompanied by the Marquis of CoNvuGnaNt and the Right Hon. Sir Bax.

ROTTERDAM, NOVEMBER 2. The detachment of the Royal Horse Guards on duty A letter from Batavia, of the 25th of June, makes at the Horse Guards, were drawn out dismounted to no mention of the cholera morbus ; whence it is hoped receive the KING, their trumpeter sounding a salute. that the ravages of that disorder have ceased. About a quarter of an hour after his MaJx.srit'a arrival, the cannon in St. James's Park discharged a doable royal salute, which induced great numbers of persons to enter the Park by all the gates, expecting the gratification of seeing the KING, in which, how ever, they were disappointed. The Tower guns also fired a royal salute. The Paris Papers of Tuesday arrived this forenoon. Accounts have been received from the French phy sicians at Barcelona, dated the 26th of October. — Drs. PARISET and BAILLY have both been seized with the fever, and the only one now capable of active duty is M. FRANCOIS. Among the most cruel cir cumstances attending the ravages of the epidemy, is the death of 1,500 young people, who were enrolled lin the National Militia appointed to form the cordon. Not one, it is said, has survived. Arrangements have been now made by the Supe rior Administration of the province (Catalonia) for the encampment of the remaining population of Bar celona within certain specified limits of the adjacent country. A letter from the banks of the Bidassoa, of the 25th of October, says, _ " The contagious malady has ceased its ravages at Mequineza, but it is for want of victims. We had yesterday accounts from Tortosa, containing the most afflicting details and recapitulations of dead and dying, which make one shudder. Down to the 26th September 7000 persons had perished ; and there still died from sixty to seventy daily. On the 10th of the month their number was seventy-one." A French ship, which arrived from Smyrna at Trieste on the 20th of October, announces, that down to the 28th of September all was tranquil at Smyrna. The French squadron, and the two Austrian ships of war, remained in the port. On the 11th of October, the French Captain encountered, off Zante, the Turkish fleet from Patras ; on the 9th, he had seen in the en-' virons of Navarino two strong Greek divisions. The latest accounts from the Moldavian frontiers, which are to the sth ult. represent the cause of the Greeks in Moldavia as quite ruined. The Turks, who have no resistance to fear, plunder all over Moldavia, where anything is to be found, and are to remain this winter at Jassy. It is certain, indeed, that as soon as the Turks leave Moldavia, the Hetarists will return to it; 6,000 of them are between the Dniester and the Pruth, and long for the moment when they may avenge the blood of their brethren. The Moldavian Boyars who are in Bessarabia and the Bukowine, intend, when the Turks leave Molda •ia, to create a kind of militia to preserve order, and keep out the Hetarists; but any one who knows the Indolence of the Moldavians, will easily see that the plan cannot be executed. From the following article from Frankfort, it ap pears that the speculations there have now turned in favour of peace; FRANKFORT, NOVEMBER t. His Highness Prince Metternich is expected here to-morrow. On the SOth ultimo, a Deputation from our Senate went to Giessen to compliment his Majesty the King of England on his passage through that town. Several Greeks, among whom is the young Prince Gregory Ypsilanti, arrived here yesterday from Kis chinew, in Bessarabia, on their way to Paris, to finish their studies. Count Lieven, the Russian Ambassador, did not' arrive at Hanover till the 28th ultimo. It is affirmed that the result of the conferences between the three Ministers (Prince Metternich, the Marquis of Lon donderry, and Count Lieven), leaves no doubt of the continuance of peace. French 5 per Cents. Monday, 89 fr. 95 e. Dispatches from Corfu, of the recent date of the 21st of October, have been received at the Colonial Office, which communicate some occurrences of an extremely painful nature, which have taken place at Zante. They are described in the subjoined letter : " CORFU, OCTOBER 21. " On the 13th inst. eighteen Idriot vessels chased a Turkish brig of war into Cheri bay, near Zante, and she sustained an action of seven hours against the whole of them ; but approaching too near the shore, took the ground, and the Governor of Zante, to pre vent communication, as a suspicious fever rages among the Turkish fleet, and also to observe strict neutrality, sent down a detachment of an Officer and twelve men, and Lieutenant Wright, of the Engineers, to explain to the inhabitants the necessity of neutra lity : they, however, assembled (about 2000 of them) behind stone walls, and, Greek like, fired immedi ately among our poor fellows, who were on the beach. Wright was severely wounded in the thigh, but is now out of danger. Several soldiers were wounded, and one killed. Our men immediately retreated to a house, where they effectually defended themselves against these treacherous people ; but the dead body of tfie British soldier became the object of their ma lignity : they broke both his arms and legs, and stamped on his breast bone ; they then ran his own bayonet completely through his head, and there left him. In the meantime some Turkish ships appeared in sight, and the Idriot heroes ran away. The Turks took out the crew of their brig, and made off also.— Martial law is declared at Zante, and vigorous measures are adopted to disarm the inhabitants and Irnish the offenders. k ; " News arrived yesterd a y f rom C erign, o,e of the ! lonian Islands, that the inhabitants there h a d mut. dered forty-one Turks: these people had keen taken prisonets in the Morea, and were proceedi n on 6eir parole.

So late as the 3d instaat, the Superior Board Health sitting at Malaga published an extract N I the book of their proceedings, in which they bin§ complain of a late Order horn the Commandant the Province, and the Superior Board of Ilealthd Grenada, for cutting off all communication with 31 4 , Ina, and establishing cordons of troops within hai a league of the city; such an Order, they confi maintain, those Authorities had no right to i without their concurrence, even if the malady Tei existed in Malaga ; but as there is no ground at for believing this to he the case, the Order, they serve, is liable to still greater objections. OCTOBER 13.—None of the foreign Ministers Madrid assisted at the opening of the Cotter Eat ordinary, on the 28th of last month. Their ah is accounted for, in a Spanish Paper, by their willingness to submit to an Article of the Regul i • of the Cones, which requires all individuals in o Hall to stand while his Majesty is present, with exception only of the members of his family. OCTOBER 15.—The crews of several vessels frti Malaga state the number of daily deaths of the yd low fever in that city to amount to between ten all twelve; though private letters received by land, whe they acknowledge the existence of a malignant fete ashore, deny it to be of the same nature with dm which rages.in the harbour, and which is onallkair confessed to be the yellow fever.

A Hamburgh Mall arrived this forenoon, with Pa pers to the 2d inst. The following are extracts : ST. PETERSBURG'', OCTOBER 9. The following are the regulations (at length)lately issued by his :Majesty's order, for the trade of the Aleutian Islands, &c. " Considering that, according to the reports that have been laid before us, the commercial relations of our subjects in the Aleutian Islands, and in the Rus sian establishments along the North-west Coast of America, are exposed to all kinds of disadvantages and impediments by the contraband trade : consi dering also, that the principal cause of these inconve niences arises from the want of regulations on the li mits of navigation along these coasts, and of a settled rule for commercial regulations, as well in the above places as on the east coast of Siberia, we have thought it necessary to determine those relations by the fol lowing Ordinance: I. It is not permitted to any but Russian subjects to com mence the whale or other fishery, or any branch of, industry whatever, in the islands, ports, and gulfs, and in general, along the coast of the North-west of America, from Bebring's Straits to 51 degrees, north latitude, as well as in the Aleutian Islands, on the east coast of Siberia, and the Kurile Islands; that is to say, from Bebring's Straits to the South Cape, in the island of Ooroop, viz. in 45 deg. 51 min. north latitude. 2. In consequence every foreign vessel is forbidden to touch at the Russian Establishments enumerated in the preceding paragraph, or even to approach them within a less distance than 100 Italian miles. Whoever acts in contradiction to this Regu lation shall lose his cargo. • 5. Vessels compelled by stress of weather or ►ant of prod. dons to touch on the coast, are excepted from this prohibition. In these two cases they are bound to thew satisfactory grounds for their approach. Vessels sent by friendly Powers on voyages of discovery, are also exempted from the general rule, under the 1 restriction of being furnished with passports from the Russian Minister of the Marine. _ _ 4. Foreign reasons above ml which touch at the coasts for the are obliged to choose a place where there is a Russian 5. A pilot shall be sent, if the weather permits, to foreign merchantmen, in order to assign them an anchoring place fit for such vessels. Every Captain acting to the contrary shall pay a fine of 100 piastres. 6. All oared boats belonging to foreign merchantmen must land at a place pointed out to them, where a white flag shall be set up during the day, and a light at night. An Inspector shall see that no merchandise be clandestinely landed or embarked.— Whoever shall anchor at another place shall pay 50 piastres, and he who shall carry on shore merchandise, or other effects, shall pay 500 piastres, and the merchandise shall be confiscated. 7. If it should be necessary to unload a vessel in order to rr pair it, the Captain is to be authorized to do so. In this case the Captain shall deliver to the Authorities of the place a state ment of the nature and the quantity of his goods. Ile who shall conceal any part of the cargo shall be charged as guilty of con traband trade, and pay a fine of 1,000 piastres. 8. The expenses which may be incurred in the said places shall be discharged either in ready money or in bills of exchange. In case the Captain should have no money, and no person will become security for him, the Chief Authority of the place is authorized, on the application of the Captain, to sell a certain part of the merchandise sufficient to pay the expenses. This sale can only be made for account of the Company, and through the medium of the Authorities. It can under no pretext exceed the amount of the expenses, on pain of the sequestration of the cargo and a line of 1,000 piastres. BURG 11. OCTOBER 31. Besides the detachment of our cavalry sent to the mouth of the Elbe, to prevent communication be tween the shore and the ships from infected places, similar measures are adopted on the coasts of Hol stein, Hanover, and Oldenburg. EXCHANGE ON LONDON, OCT. 30.-36--11, 37-2: Nov. 2.-36-Bi, 36-111. A Mail from Holland has brought us Papers to the Sd instant. The following are extracts : HAGUE, NOVEMBER 2. SECOND CHAMBER OF THE STATES-I The preliminary business of the Assembly having been gone through, and several petitions received, the Minister of Finance was introduced by the Commit tee nominated fur the purpose, and presented, in the ,name of his Majesty, two Projects of Law, which he explained in a speech in the Dutch language. The first Project contained the Budget of the Extraordi nary Expenses fur the year 1822, which are fixed at the sum of 18,688,8.56 florins, being 2,387,677 florins below the estimate of the same expenses for the year 1821. His Excellency did not fail to draw the at tention of the Chamber to this important reduction. He likewise observed, that the amount of the extra ordinary receipts was estimated at a sum approxi mating to that fixed for the disbursements; that thus, as his Majesty had said on opening the Session, there was a just proportion between the receipt and the ex penditure, and that it was not necessary to have re course to any extraordinary means. Lastly, his Ex cellency gave hopes of the speedy issue of a new coinage, which was now executing with great activity both at Utrecht and Brussel:. . , His Excellency also preheated an Account of the
