The scaffolding that still surrounds the new monu ment erected to the late Lord MELVILLE by the Offi cers of the Navy, will be removed to-night, as it is now finished so far as the architecture goes, and only wants the statue on the top to complete it. The inhabitants of Leith have raised a most mag nificent scaffolding all along the pier, from which they will command a complete view of his MAJES TY'S landing. The Royal Archers' Company met at four o'clock in the Physicians' Hall, in George's-street, for the purpose of being sized and divided into proper squads for the Procession and duties during the Royal visit. Their costume is that of the ancient Scotch bowmen, and the material, a peen mull slashed with green satin; overalls of the same, with a broad stripe of silver lace; Celtic hose, with a large rosette of black riband in the shoes, and a ruff round the neck ; a cloth bonnet and eagle's plume; the arms, the bow,. and a dagger in a broad leather belt. But what has chiefly attracted the notice of the City to-day was a Meeting of the Celtic Society, in full costume, to receive their colours. They assem bled in the field fronting the east division of Heriot row about half-past twelve o'clock. The Gentlemen composing that most imposing body of men had a very fine appearance; the variety of the costume, (each wearing the tartan of his respective clan), al though it detracted from so ict military uniformity,' added Much to the picturesque effect of the groupe. " The gathering" was then sounded by the chief piper of the Society, and the Gentlemen fell in and drilled for some time on their private parades ; after which General GRAHAM STIRLING, who commanded on the field, formed them into line by an echelon of divisions, and afterwards wheeled them back into a hollow square, facing inwards. These manoeuvres, were performed with a steadiness truly astonishing, if we consider the very short time that has been al lowed them for preparation, and that many of them never before were accustomed to military movements. l About half-past one, Sir WALTER SCOTT, accom panied by Colonel DAVID STawaRT (author of the work on the Highland Regiments), entered the square, .and the colours being placed in their hands by General GRAHAM STIRLING, Sir WALTER SCOTT addressed the corps nearly in the following terms : " HIGHLANDERS !—ln delivering to yob those standards, I aim convinced that I am placing them into the hands of men of ho- nour and of courage, who will never bring a stain on their pu rity, and who will defend them with their best blood. " I cannot perform this most gratifying duty without offering you my most sincere congratulations on the occasion on which these ensigns are presented to you, and the hormurable office that has been assigned to you on this most joyful occasion of his Majesty honouring this realm with bis presence. The duty of guarding the ancient emblems of the independence of this king dom has devolved upon you ; and though upon this occasion you only draw these swords on a business of form and ceremony, yet should the hour of real danger arrive, I have no doubt that you will do credit to the lineage from which you arc sprung, and stand forward in the foremost ranks of danger for the rights and liberties of your country, as becomes men of honour, of courage, and of loyalty." The colours were then presented by Sir WALTER SCOTT and Colonel DAVID STEWA RT, and the corps saluted in the ancient Celtic fashion, the pipes sound ing during the salute. A most solemn and impres sive prayer was then delivered by the Rev. Dr. AN DERSON, the Cliaplainto the Society, and when it was concluded the corps were marched off with their pipers playing before them to the Assembly-rooms, where they took the oath of allegiance. The stand ards are of white satin, with the Blue Cross of St. Andrew in the Star cf the Thistle ; the borders are surrounded with silver fringe. There was a most numerous and respectable as sem bl y of spectators on the ground, who seemed all highly delighted with the splendid and martial ap pearance of the Celtic body, and the imposing effect of the ceremonial. It was intended that the Regalia should have been removed from the Strong Room in the Castle at four o'clock to-day, under the guard of the Celtic body, and the Yeomen were hurried out to assist at the ce remony, but Mr. Pest not having arrived so early as was expected, it was put of till Monday. By a Blazil Packet we have received letters and Papers irom Rio Janeiro to the sth of June, from Bahia to _the 22d, and from Pernambuco to the 27th. The news from Rio is not, consequently, later than the advices brought by the BEAVER, which we pub lished the other day. The letters from Bahia men tion that everything was tranquil there, but some ap prehensions were entertained of an attack from the. interior, in support of the system established at Rio Janeiro, and in opposition to the European interests. At Casoeira, about 40 miles from Bahia, an attempt had in fact been made to proclaim the PRINCE REGENT as the future King of Brazil, and a disposition was in that district evinced to commence an open warfare against the Europeans. 'The Gazeta do Govern° of Pernambuco of the 22J, t::: first Newspaper from that country that has come 14,:,% - e us, contains several documents, among which is 1::e correspondence of the Junta with the KING and tes in Lisbon, and the PRINCE in Rio Janeiro, the, hi incipal pai t of which we published at the time from Lisbon Papers. ivate letters from Malta, dated the 11th July, 5.-rte that an American ship had just arrived there from Napoli de Romania, bringing the information cf the capitulation of the fortress, and adding, that by one of the articles, the Turkish garrison was to be transported in French and English vessels. The re peated assertions and contradictions of the capture of this place sliew its value in the estimation of the contending parties. Since the capture of the un fortunate island of Scio, the Turks have not boasted, of a single advantage, and they have confined their public news to merely contradicting the suc cesses of the Greeks, whilst every communication re ceived of late from the Morea encourages the hope that the result of the contest will expel the barbarians from Purope, and re-establish the liberal and Chris tian Empire of the Greeks in the Mediterranean and the Black Seas. At Constantinople, on receipt of the intelligence of the defeat of his fleet, the GRAND SEIG NIOR, in order to preserve the inhabitants from per petrating the crime of murder, collected some httn di cds of Greeks, and had them publicly put to death. r•lond.ry evening the LORD CHANCELLOR had a long cc,hultation with the Earl of LIVERPOOL. Mr. ARBUTHNOT arrived in town at four o'clock -yr,tei day morning, from his seat near Kettering. The Gnzette of last night contains a Proclamation, iftneci by the Marquis of LONDONDERRY on Friday last, !dative to the murder of a servant of Mr. W. n ENDER, near Horncastle, in the county of Lin coln, ‘...hich took place on the 23d of June. The Dike of DEVONSII IR E arrived yesterday after noon at Devonshire House, from German Spa. The Duke and Duchess of PORTLAND left Lord and Lady FORESTER'S seat, in Salop, on Monday, for their seat in Derbyshire. The Marquis and Marchioness of ANGLESEY andl f::mily arrived on Monday at their house in Old Bur lington -street, from the Isle of Wight. Yesterday was the Last Day of Drawing the State Lnttery, and the finish of the Contract, when No., 4,q3(), drawn a Prize of £30,000 Consols, was sold by 131str, 4, Cornhill, and 9, Charing-Cross. DISTRESS AMONG THE LAWYERS.—NO class of per ,7ls at the Aisizes on the Western Circuit (with the exception of the convicts and losers of suits) have less : eason to be satisfied with them than the Barristers. We believe there are not less than 70 of these Learned Gen tlemen on the Circuit; and at Salisbury they had but six cases, or about eleven briefs to share between them. 1-.-om fifty to sixty learned and eloquent Gentlemen t•Ptched neither paper nor fee ! It was still worse at I)9rchester, where the Assizes produced but five briefs ;;I',gether—not one per dozen! At Exeter there were E ' enty-eight cases—at most but fitly briefs, and the -.hole of these were engrossed by about half a dozen leading and popular men. In Cornwall there appear but rive prisoners, and it is said an equal lack of business c'n the law side. Upwards of seventy Barristers at tended the Devon Assizes last week. "'here was pro duced in Court, and handed about as a curiosity, the brief, the only brief, that Devonshire ever afforded to the great Wiwi% M PITT, who, once at least, travelled 'that Circuit. His notes on its margin, and the signa ture to hi, fee, attracted much notice. The green cloth which then coveted the Court table, and on which he inscribed his name, is also preserved there as an in teresting relic. Doom GAP. or Tionssas—Por some time past the vicinities of Blackheath. Greenwich, and Deptford, haveleen infested by a formidable gang of robbers, who have committed the most daring doffed:Woos with the greatest impunity. Gentlemen's Louse. have been broken into and plundered, and orchards mhb••d to a considerable extent. Several of the depredatore have, however, within these few days, been appro•hended.

The Extraordinary Meeting of the Highland Society of Scotland, called to Address the KING on the occa sion of his MaJawry's visit to Scotland, was held in the Hall of the Royal College of Physicians. One o'clock afternoon was the hour of meeting, but a great many Members had previously assembled ; and within fifteen minutes after the hour,_ it is supposed' that not fewer than from 250 to 300 of the Noblemen and gentlemen, Members of the Society, were pre sent ; among iest--.• The Marclissoo of Qllnell,heffy and Lothian, the Earls of Moray, Weems and March, Leven and Melville, Aboyne, Breadalbane, Abadan, aid Rtnebery, Viscount Arbuthnot, Lords Dinning, Sentiment, Glinsorehy, Robert Kerr, Francis Lemon Gower, &atom, Torphichen, and Ashburton, the Lord Provost of Edinburgh, Right Hon.

Hay Forbes, Mr. Graham Dalyell, Mr. Innis of Stow, Treasurer of the Society, with many ether Gentlemen of family, extensive landed property, and of distinguished respectability in tile commercial interest. On motion of the Earl of AnoVNE, the Most Noble the Marquis of Larnomq, one of the Vice-Presidents in office, was unanimously called to the Clair. Mr. MACDONALD. of Staffa, the Secretary, having stated the resolution of. the Directors to call the pre sent Meeting for the earliest day which by the char ter-it was competent to fix, The E.irl'of WESITSS and MA RCll.'ioie to move the Address. His Lordship, in a speech Of much elegairce, congratulated the Meeting and the Country upon his Majesty's most gracious visit to this his ancient kingdom and metropolis ; that it appeared particularly fitting and expedient that this &kitty, instituted for such patriotic purposes, and embracing so large a proportion of the rank, property, and talent o f the country, should come forward on this most gratifying occasion, to offer to his Majesty its fervent congratulation s an d d ut if u l h omage, and to state to his Majesty the continued progress of Scotland in agricultural and the other' improvements which it is the Society's peculiar purpose to promote and encou rage. His Lordship concluded -by stating to the Meeting,. that the Address which he had the honour to move' had already met the approbation of the Directors, ai he trusted it would meet unanimously with that of this Meeting. The Address having been read by the Secretary, The Earl of BREADALBANE rose. His Lordship said, that he had great satisfaction in seconding the Address which had now been read ; that he entirely agreed . with the Noble Lord who had preceded him, in the opinion of the propriety of this great national Society coming forward to address the Throne on the present happy occasion. His Lordship concluded a short, but peculiarly appropriate speech, by stating that the Address proposed had his entire approbation, as he trusted it would receive that of the distinguished Meeting of this Society, which was now convened. The Address was thereupon voted by acclamation. Lord AttatiritNor, one of the Vice-Presidents, thereupon mentioned, that at a Meeting of the Di. rectors held yesterday, at which the Noble Marqiiis now in the Chair presided, the Directors had given it as their opinion, that, in the event of the Address being presented by a deputation, such deputation, ac cording to the number to be fixed, should consist of those Noblemen and Gentlemen who now hold, or have held, the offices of President or of Vice. Pres idents, and of the three senior Ordinary, and one of the Extraordinary Directors. His Lordship moved that this recommendation be approved of, which having been seconded by Lord Saltoun, was unani mously agreed to. Lord FRANCIS L. GOWER proposed the thanks of the Meeting to the two Noble Earls who had moved and seconded the Address. His Lordship said that he understood the Earl of Wearyu had come to town with considerable personal inconvenience to attend this Meeting. The Marquis of QUEENSBERRY seconded this mo tion, which was carried with much applause. The Earl of Rowsanv, in brief, but very appro priate terms, moved the thanks of the Society to the Directors, for having called this Meeting on the first moment that it was understood that his Majesty was to honour Scotland with his presence, which afforded another instance of the assiduous attention which they devoted to the Society's business. Viscount GLENORCHY seconded this motion, which was carried with approbation. Letters were received from the Duke of MONTROSE and HENRY MACKENZIE, Esq. expressing their ap probation of the object of the Meeting, and their re gret in being prevented from attending it by indispo sition, and apologies tram Lord MeLvitte, Sir NEIL MENZIES, and various other Members in the country, regretting that it was not in their poiker to attend on this occasion. This Extraordinary General Meeting of the Society having been called for a special purpose, no other business was entered upon, and, on the motion of the Earl of MORAY, seconded by the Los d Provost of Edinburgh, the thanks of the Society were, with much approbation, voted to the Marquis of Lo•rtaMAN (the Vice President in the Chair), for his uniform at tention to the Society's business, and particularly on the present occasion.

Meings, the driver of the hackney coach 940, who has been in custody since the accident on Ludgate-hill, when Mr. Bilborough, a carpenter, of }hash's -court, Water lane, was rode over, was again brought up. A certificate from Mr. Box, the surgeon, was read, which stated Mr. Bilborough to be out of danger; he was not, however, ahle to attend the examination. Mr. Alderman BROWN observed, that a very vio lent assault had been committed, and very serious injury sus tained by one of his Majesty's subjects, though, fortunately for the prisoner, death had not ensued from his gross misconduct. The Public looked up to the Magistracy for protection against these sorts 4 outrages, while peaceably pursuing their business on the high Way ; and if men of this class would get intoxicated while in the exercise of their occupation, and thereby endanger the lives of passengers in the street, they must be made to feel that such conduct would not be permitted to pass off will im punity; and he should therefore direct him to be prosecuted at the expense of the City, and iu the meantime to enter into secu rities fur his appearance, himself in 401. and two sureties in each.—The prisoner, being unprepared, was committed. Bow-swigs:v.—Yesterday Mary Agnes I.esisa Buller, a young woman fashionably dressed, was brought up on suspicion of stealing seven £5 Bank notes. The prisoner is one of a number of lodgers residing at a house in Surrey-street, Strand. Mr. W. Drewe, Master of the Edward, West Indianan, who lives at this house while his shii,t, in dock, had deposited the notes in his desk in the presence of all the other lodgers, observing he might be robbed if he carried them al7tit with him. This was on Satur day, and un Monday it was 'discovered the desk had been un locked and the money had been stolen. All the lodgers offered to be searched, and Ellis, the officer, was sent for, who investi gated the circumstance, and searched them, with the exception of the prisoner, who had not risen. Ellis then repaired to the prisoner's room, and after rummaging under the carpets, the bed-clothes, Ste. and only having discovered .22 sovereigns and 40s. in a drawer, he was about to quit the roarn,when he shook . a rosette on the valence of the bedstead, and out fell two of the identical ,C. 5 notes, making, with the gold and silver, nearly the whole amount. The prisoner, in her defence, positively, and is a very earnest manner, disclaimed all knowledge of the note s . H ow t h ey came in her bed she knew not. She declared she had never been in the parlour alone since the slay when Mr. Drewe was said to have deposited the notes in the desk. The Magistrate said, it would be of great importance to her if she co , ald account satisfactorily for the possession of the twhty two sovereigns. The prisoner said, she bad had them a month in her possession. They were given to her by a friend to hear the expenses sit but journey to France, where she was shortly going. The Magistrate said this was mere assertion. Could she rot bring her friend to prove it ? Prisoner (bursting into tears).—l cannot now, Sir, because h e is sevepty miles from town; and I einnot memt his name., tcr the fact is, I am under his protection ' and he is a married m an . and the disclosure of his name would be the cause of dreadtui unhappiness to hint and his wife.--The prisoner was remanded for further examination. Iliaron-Gaiansa.—.Xihrs Fey was charged with beating Anne, his wife, in a ,shocking manner, and also with assaulting an,i beating two watchmen when they came to take him into custody. Both charges being made out, he was commit tech n default of hail. A fat, comely-looking Lady, who sAmitted herself to he 40 cr 50 years of age, appeared at this Gfre for the purpose of swear ing to a Gentleman, of between 50 find 60, a male child. After many assertions from leoth parties, reflecting greatly upon the character of each other, the usual formality of swearing to the child's father was gone through. The question now remained as to what sum per week the father :should pay? In order to prove his ability, the Lady did not fail to expose all his private circumstances within her knowledge. After a very warm de bate between the partiei, the worthy Magistrate with great dif ficulty obtained a little silence, when he said that the mother should keep the child, and the father pay her ss. 6d. per week for its maintenance. • ,• CORN EICHANUR, MAR► -LAN?, :VOMIT 14.—The 3reat deores - in the Wheat trade, which has been experienced tnr Fevc days past, in consequence of the immensity ef the supplies and the continuance of line weather, was, if possible, stall great.•c this mor.ting, owing to the reduction in the price of Flour of Ss. per sack, which was deter mined upon at nearly the close of Monday's market t scarcely any sales were made to-day, an d prices of that of last yeses growth were completely main ti— the quantity now on hand exceeds aU former precoleat.
