x•ill satisfy true Poles but independence of Rus sia, cost what it may, PASKEWITSCH will be compelled either to fight the Poles in front of Warsaw, or enter into arrangements, such u the patriots will insist upon. We consider all that is said in the Prus sian journals, about the arrival of large re inforcements, under Katurz, as dust thrown in the eyes of the Prussian public. Any person %rho consults the map, may perceive that KREUTZ would have to march to the Vistula through Pod laehia—a country altogether Polish ; while his t r oops would,at least,consist only of those who could he spared from Lithuania. As to Runtosit, he appears to have encountered unexpected obstacles, if he has not been utterly routed, as the Cracow letters received through the last ten days, have led as to believe. We infer, therefore, that unless PASKEWITSCH receive the reinforcemects on which he calculates, that he has not sufficient strength to attack Warsaw ; and, probably, as the private letters from Berlin to Hambnrgh indicated, may have been obliged to fall back. The Berlin GaigironTe2d is entirely occu pied by portentous accounts of the advance of the cholera to that capital. Several patients are an nounced ; and the disease appears to be afflicting other Prussian cities. This we regard as a very severe stroke on the prosperity of Prussia, far ex ceeding any advantages which its malign Govern ment could derive from the treacherous support which it has given to the pestiferous Russians. It is a melancholy case of political retribution, in which thousands of Prussian families must unhappily suffer. In the first place, the Prussian Government permitted Russian fleets to enter Dantzic, and other ports, freighted ith warlike stores ; by which those hi therto flourishing places became scenes of deso lation. In like manner the Prussian frontiers have served as points d'appui to the Russian army, the whole of which were propagators of this fatal disease among the unfortunate subjects of Prussia. The disease being thus transplanted to the banks of the Spree,' we may soon expect to hear of its being at Hamburg, in Denmark, Nor way, and Holland, though it might never have passed the Niemen, but for the recklessness of the Emperor NICHOLAS, and the ill-judged policy— to say the very least—of the Court of Prussia. We daily expect to hear also of its appearance at Vienna, if it had not shown itself in that city, when the last ambiguous accounts left it. The Danube below Vienna appeared to be generally in fected, at distances not greater than that of Gravesend from London. This calamity is also to be ascribed to the Russian invasion of Podolia and Gallicia, a circumstance which might have been prevented, if the Courts of Vienna and Berlin had, with energy, insisted on the Russian observ ance of that Polish Constitution, which both had guaranteed. There never was a more memorable instance of the folly and wickedness of despising the maxim, that " honesty is the beet policy." The Gazette of last night contains the names of eight Commoners who have been raised to the dignity of Baron; two Scotch Earls, who have been created Marquisses ; one English Earl— Grosvenor—created Marquis of Westminster; one Scotch Viscount created an Earl ; Lord George Cavendish created Earl of Burlington ; Viscount Duncan, Earl of Camperdown ; and six Irish Peers created Peers of the United Kingdom. Most of them are persons known to, and respected by the public ; others chiefly known in the Court cir des. The immense property of Lord Grosvenor justifies this advrncement in rank. We pre sume, however, that all of them will add to the strength of Ministers in the House of Peers, on the ensuing trial of the strength of parties in that Assembly. We confess that we expected—and we are quite sure the public at large expected--that a comes 'ion would appear in the same Gasetts to Caown DIBTORI, as at once just and liberal; and we have entertained hopes, that this occasion would hare been sought, to issue an amnesty to the UNCONVICTED DUDA& aIoTERs.-a measure which we regard as necessary and politic. Is there not as good reason to expect this last con cession from the British Government, as to de mand, as we have done, an amnesty from Fer dinand ? In the House of Commons, u usual, a great variety of petitions were presented. On introducing a petition from Wexford, against the yeomanry, the words " Massacre at Netotonbarry" led to a discussion, in which the phrase was jus tified, and the petition received, and ordered to be printed. In a Committee of Ways and Means, Mr. Hume objected to the distinction of consoli ; dated fund ; and Mr. Rice said its abolition was `under consideration. Lord G. Somerset made some observations about the confused state of the Custom House, which Lord Althorp declined to answer till this day. Mr. Hume complained of the inconveniences suffered by the company in the Abbey in getting away, in g to an obstruction of carriages by the police. Mr. Rice mowed for the usual sum in aid of edu cation in Ireland, which led to a long explanation from Mr. Stanley, relative to the proportion of Pro testant and Catholis schools, for which we refer to the debate. Mr. North, Mr. Lefroy, Mr. Brown -I,°w, Mr. Wyse, Mr. Conolly, Mr. Sbeil at great length, M r . Shaw, Mr. Wright, Mr. Gordon, Mr. ° Connell, &c. iSec, spoke on the subject. Capt. Gordon made use of his usual violent language about the Catholics, and was answered by Mr. O'Connell with great spirit, who maintained that the Catholic Priests were not opposed to educe cation ; and who complimented Mr. Stanley on his improved views. At two o'clock this afternoon there was a Con ference of the Ministers of the Great Powers, on the affairs of Belgium, at the Foreign Office ; and, at four o'clock, a Cabinet Council.

In his Shyloek of last night there was no apparent decay in physical ability, and the most energetic scenes were acted with the greatest force and effect. The other characters were supported by Miss Tay. lot, Mrs. Ashton, and Mrs. Newcombe, Messrs. Cooper, Vining, H. Walled, Harley, and Bianchi Taylor. Among other arts, that of puffing has arrived at a degree of perfection not anticipated even in Sheridan's critic.

The great fire at Constantinople took place on the 2d ult. in Pen, where all the Europeans reside. The destruction extends to nearly 7,000 houses; indeed only eight houses are left, among which fa that of Mr. Cart wright, Mr. Hanson. the English Merchant, and the English Consul. The fire broke out in four districts at the same instant. A most brilliant fete has been given at Cher bourg by the British Yacht Club. Lord Yarborough spent 8001. upon the entertainment, which was attended by many distinguished English gentlemen and a great number of French, who came in crowds to Cherbourg to witness It. There was a sailing-match between about forty yachts.— The chief prise wu s gold cup worth from 3,000 to 4,000 fr. which was won by one of the smallest yachts rigged as a schooner. The starting of these vessels was favoured by a breeze. A large cutter of 120 tons, accompanied the yach ts , but owing to her superior sailing took DO pan in match. Not one French yacht participated in this contest, for these pleasure boats are yet unknown in France.—Journal de Havre. At a meeting of the Members of the Notting ham Constitutional Club, on Wednesday last, it was re mind " that the grateful thanks of the Club be presented to M. T.

We are assured that his illustrious relative, King Louis Philippe, many months since, advised hs Neapolitan Majesty to anticipate this demand by the concession of rights that would other wise be extolled. The tumult spoken of above was soon suppressed l but that it will end in the establishment of a Representative Legislature in the kingdom of Naples, there tan hardly be a doubt.

The applause was loud and mental, both in hones and clapping of hands. Simila rity of costume and wig occasioned Lord Lyndbunt to be mistaken to Lord Brougham ; but the error was promptly corrected, by vociferations from gallery to gallery. The nu merous military scattered through the Cathedral, generally applauded the Duke of Wellington. The applause was nearly as great when Lord Grey did homage, as on the ho -71 d of n Lord Brougham. Dinner Parties on the most splendid scale were given on Thursday in honour of their Majesties' Coronation by several of the Calvet Ministers t Bari Grey had a Numerous party of Members of the House of Peers. Viscount Palmerston entertained the whole of the Foreign Ambassadors and Ministers, including* Russian, Nether. lands, French, and Austrian Ministers ou Special Missions.

Viscount Althorp entertained the Governor of the Bank ; the Chairmen of the Commissioners of the Customs, Stamps, and Taxes ; the Deputy Chairman of the Excise, Lord John Russell, Sir James Macdonald, Colonel Maberly, Ur. Hyde Villiers, Mr. Tennyson, Mr. Creevy. Lord Nu gent, Mr. Francis Baring, Mr. G. Poosunby, Mr. Bernal, Mr. Spring Rice, Mr. Race, Mr. Thompson, Mr. Smith. The Coronation Medal presents admirable likenesses of the King and Queen, and is highly respectable as a work of art. At the Coronation an accident happened to Sir Claudius S. Hunter. He foolishly tried to catch some of the Coro nukes medals which were cut among the company. And the other Aldermen were u anxious as he was, and in the experiment Sir Claudius received • cut under the eye. It happened that Sir Astley Cooper was near, and the blood was Instantly stopped by air A. without the use of lint or plaister. None of the Aldermen were so fortunate as to catch a medal ! The Lord Mayor gave a splendid dinner on Thursday to the Court of Aldermen and many of the leading citizens of London, in honour of the coronation. His Lordship also entertained about 70 merchants and bankers at the Mansion House yesterday in honour of the progress of the great reform bill. All the members of the late Government, members of the Howe of Commons, absented themselves from the corona tion of their Majesties ! Sir Robert Peel, Mr. Wm. Peel, Mr. George Dawson, Sir George Murray, Sir H. Hardinge, Mr. Goulburn, and Sir G. Clerk, under the auspices of Mr. Wm.

Amongst the mat splendid of the equipages at the Coro. nation of their Majesties on Thursday was that of the Aus trian Ambassador, Prince Esterhasy, and suite, in three carriages.—ln the household of her Majesty the Countess of Brownlow was conspicuous from the richness of her dress, and the valuable jewels she wore on the occasion. The chaste simplicity of the dresses, and the beauty of the ladies forming her Majesty's Maids of Honour, excited also very general admiration. CORONATION FESTIVITIES IN THE COUNTRY. V' For dm splendid Po;deities in Sums, see the Panorama In the last page. Cos.cafirrEa.—Our task in recording the manifestations of loyalty in Colchester, and the festivities consequent on the crowning of our patriot King, Is easy. Out of a pope. 'sibs' of fifteen thousand souls half appear to be paupers, if we may take into consideration the number of applicants for the bounty which their more successful and wealthy fellow-townsmen thought fit to dole out on this happy occasion. About two hundred guineas were collected from the gentry and opulent trades. men of the borough, which enabled the committee to pro. vide the 7,000 applicants with half a pound of meat and twopence for drink each. The bells were rung, and those who bad the management of the demonstrations of popular rejoicing put forth a resolution recommending the inhahl. tants to abstain from an illumination. Whispers have gone very freely abroad that the paucity of customary festivities is attributable to the operation of corporation polities, which be. adverse to all reform, is lukewarm in favour of areforming King. We have heard—we hope it is untrue—that several individuals connected with this Corporation have hinted pretty plainly their sentiments. One churchwarden, not a hundred miles front the High-street, absolutely refused to assist in the collection of the funds for the reason named, and many corporate gentry gave their hay-croons with considerable reluctance. Tx...sesame'. Ccus.—About 80 respectable tradesmen, composing this club, met at the Marlborough Head on Thursday evening, to demonstrate their loyalty and attach ment to their King. and to drink the usual compliments on the happy event of their Mon Gracious Majesties' Corona do:. Manwsworser..—The tokens of loyalty have been of the most gratifying and general description in this town. The auspicious day was ushered in by Manager Striates bond, followed by a troop of boys bearing blue streamers, and joining their "most sweet voices" in uproarious testi. monies of satisfaction. Mews. Goodticb, Meer, and Cut ting, right staunch and loyal publicans, displayed the " Banners of the Brave" in front of their houses, and in deed every house which had not some link appropriate symbol of loyalty, hung out green boughs, which bad a plessieg and picturesque effect. Mau:tom—We bear, and with considerable rem., that the rotten borough of Ilaldon did not on Thursday display the same cordiality and unanimity in celebration of the coro nation of his most gracious Majesty WiMsan IV. observed in tbe neighbouring towns of Chelmsford and Witham, and in the principal places throughout the kingdom. The ring. ing of bells, the psi tial closing of shops; and the lifeless ap =of the streets, were the only marks of di s ti nct i on. this and an ordinary day of button*. No means were afforded to the poorer classes of testifying their loyalty and good feeling on the ontesion, except in the e lse o f All Banta' Parish, in which about forty families were regaled with a plentiful sapply of meat and other provisions at their own homes. CRICLISITOND.—The Coronation of their most gracious lUajestles was celebrated in Chelmsford with the most vivid demonstrations of loyalty. A subscription had been raised for giving a public dinner to the poor, and another was made for the purpose of exhibiting a display of fireworks in the evening. At 5 o'clock a highly respectable company of upwards of 50 gentlemen, including several who are not re. Adams of the towa, sat down to a grand dinner, in the County Room, in the Shire HslL A fine buck each was gives on the °maims by C. C. Western, Esq. W. L. P. Welles ley, Esq. and Colonel TyrelL At eight o'clock the display of fireworks in front of the Shire-hall formed the great object of attraction. They were very brilliant, and gave universal satisfactioo. At nine o'clock the illuminations commenced. They were very general and brilliant. By order of the ma. &trues, the Shire-hall and the Old Gaol were illuminated, and a ailing sack was given to the debtors. Haawsca.—Tbe respectable inhabitants of Harwich, by their Made of displaying their loyalty and satisfaction on the auspicious event of the Coronation of their Majesties, have done much to redeem the character of the town from that de. gradation to which corporate venality have hitherto attached to It. They have indisputably evidenced the fact, that he want but the boon of a reformed system of legislature t t o became an example to the county, of Indepen dence and of patriotism. It is well knows the invidi ous Memos which the corpormieo of this Borough ex erts upon all public and political occasions, and from the response they gave to his Most Gracious Majesty's late ap. pad to his people, by the rejection of two independent eau. didates, it may be reasonably presumed, the caporal. A rias were am very anxious that any remarkable public de. inonstradons of sasisfaction.sbould ensue on, this occasion. Bat the spirit of the independent portion 6( the inhabitants led them to &pin this grovelling feeling, and consequently Harwich may lank among the foremost of the town s which have been emulous to do honour to the coronation of a path. ode and reforming King. HAIDLICIOII4.II early nail o'clock OD Thursday morn ing the bells at our church commenced a merry peal in honour of the Coronation of their Most Gracious Majesties. The town Sag was hoisted at the spf.-e, and the usual em. blew= of loyalty were exhibited in many parts of the dif. tempt streets. A numerous party sat down to dinner at the White Lion Inn, when many loyal and patriotic toasts were drank with acclamation. A band of music paraded the streets at intervals, and in the evening a display of fireworks closed the festivities on this occasion.—Colefissier Gaseile. YAOMOIITH.— Thursday being their 'lsjesties Comae don day, the morning was ushered in by early pe.IA on our church bells; the houses were decorated with garlands of different sorts, and with crowns, wreaths, and flags ; the ehur h and public offices, with the numerous ships lajing in the harbour, were all decorated with flags. The Mayor, Corporation. and principal inhabitants, attended divine sew. vice, after which they were entertained with a grand cold col. lation at the Town Hall, by the Mayor. By the collection made by the inhabitants for the festivity for the poor, a din ner was provided for freemen in the red interest, and those in blue 2s. 6d. each ; 50 barrels of strong beer were given away to the poor, on the south downs, with rural sport', pig hunt, sack jumping, Ike. Re. In the evening there was a grand display of various pieces of fire-work, which finished with a crown, Ste. of his Majesty, and a transparency of their Majesties. The Mayor and Corporation, and friends, dined at the New Hall, in honour of the day, where the bumper and songs went merrily round. Several dinner parties also enjoyed themselves on the occasion—in short, we lave tot seen such bursts of loyalty in this town for some years. The children on the different establishmtors went in pre. cession with a band, and the inhabitants, to see the rur a l spats. &c. No AAAAA erow.—On Thursday morning, the bells of the various churches in this town commenced ringing, in honour of the day appointed for the Coronation of our Gracious Sovereign and his Royal Consort. as early as six o'clock. In the course of the day lags were seen waving from the tower of All Saints' church, the post.otßce, town hall, itc. and a band of music paraded the streets. The event was also celebrated by public dinners at several of the inns. In the Evening the town was very generally ated, and presented a gay and pleasing appearance. Stone few houses exhibited the letters W. A. in variegated lamps, but lamps were not generally used. There was a plentiful consumption of rockets, squibs, crackers, and other species of Ire-works, which shot about in all directions, and con tinued to " startle the streets from their propriety" till a late hour. We regret to add, that many persons, in various pea of the town, who omitted to illuminate, had their win. dews broken. IN NORTHARPTONSHIRE.—The coronation of King William and Queen Adelaide was celebrated at Renoir NESTOR. in a manner which must afford sincere gratifies tion to all who take an interest in the happiness of the poor. The bells commenced ringing at a very early hour. and continued to do so at intervals during the day. The Earl and Counters of Pomfret, with that liberall:y and regard fee the happiness of the poor, for which they are justly celebra ted, ordered six deer to be killed, which, with a large iptan• tity of mutton, were made into pies, and delivered but u noon at the respective dwellings of the villagers, together with a bountiful supply of ale ; and in the evening, the women and children were regaled with tea in the school-room. Lord Sondes with his usual liberality has given a bullock and 120 gallons of ale to be distributed amongst the poor of ROCKINGHAM, to each house, according to the family; be has also made the same magnificent donation to the poor of Great Easter, and the poor of Bringhurst and Drayton. At /tussles:row a dinner was given on the occasion to about 1,300 of the poorer c'asseva. It was at first intended the should dine on the common ; but in consequence of the changeable state of the weather. it was determined that an ample proportion of beef, pudding. bread, and beer, accord ing to the number in each family, should be sent to their own houses. The gentlemen and tradesmen of the town dined together on the occasion at the Fountain Inn. At Bev a subscription, liberally patronised by the Bishop, Dean and Chapter, and the Clergy, was entered into, fur supplying a dinner, at their own houses, to all the poor in habitants of the city, amounting to upwards of 4,000. There was also a splendid illumination. CAMBRIDGE celebrated the day by a general holiday. All the shops were closed, the bells rang, and flags were displayed from many of the steeples and houses. Upwards of 60 of the principal inhabitants dined together at the Rod Lion Inn, C. Pemberton, Es q. in the chair. The illumina tions were unusually splendid; the variegated lamps numer ous, and generally arranged with great taste. In the parish of St. Andrew the Great, about 650 poor persons wen regaled with a plentifSl old English dinner. Similar enter tainments were given In the parishes of Great St. Mary, Little St. Mary, St. Benedict, St. Edward, All Saints, sod several others, in accordance with the suggestions in the firen.--Nordieraterlon Merestep. At Glummest the festivities in honour of the Coronation commenced as early as Monday last, when a large party of respectable tradesmen met in an extensive booth, 133 feet long, built foe Ste occasion on the Church Terrace. Sir John Barleycorn pasted merrily round, and " Health and long life to King William the Fourth" was drank with thunders of applause. The illumination of the town on Thursday evening was most splendid. • subscription amounting to 16L was entered into on Tuesday last at LONG BOTTOM, for the pi.rpose of regaling the poor on the Coronation day. As Ovxm.g.—The day was celebrated by giving to the poor men dinners, and to the women tea. There was no U. lamination, but fireworks in abundance. Denny—Thursday mania , business was suspended in in this town, in conformity with the suggestion of the mayor and magistrates of the borough, in honour of their Majes ties' Coronation; and the bells of the different churches ushered in the day with merry and enlivening peals. At a quarter before eleven o'clock, the children at the Sunday Schools assembled, owing ro the wetness of the morning, in the new market, where they met the militia staff, the Derby brass band, the Mayor and Corporation in their robes, and from thence walked in procession to All Saints' Church. At the church doors the children and teachers belonging the die. senting interests, and their friends, left the procession and ad. journed to King street and Zion Chapels, where suitable ad. dresses sere delivered by the Rev. Messrs. Gael/thorn and Davis, the hymns composedon account of the Sunday School Jubilee, were sung. Divine service was performed at AU Saints' Church, and an excellent and appropriate Ammon was preached by the Rev. Richard M. Hope.—Upwards of two thousand children were present on this joyous occasion, and it will serve, no doubt, as a subject of remark and con versation with many till the day of tacit death. Great num ben of them wore the mods], which was struck in oomene. 'notation of the day, suspended by blue, orange, and various other coloured ribbons, lice—Ample provision had been made to regale the children at the several school-rooms, consisting of roast beef, plain puddings, buns, wine, and other Hasid', to which they repaired, Duthie% loth, to partake of the g cheer so liberally provided for their entertainment. Public dinners are held at many of the principal inns. Numerous sheep have been slaughtered foe the occasion, and some of the principal manufacturers will regale their work men, and toast his Majesty in bumpers, as the lather of his people. Many tea pasties are also formed in all parts of the turn, towards the expenses of which, the superior classes have liberally contributed, and if the weather permit, these festivities will, in some instances, be held out ciders's. SnL7Plitso.—Thuraday being the day a; pointed fur the coronation of their Majesties, we are glad to state, au I observed at this place in a manner befitting the occasion, and creditable to its inhabitants, who for many years have en. joyed a high reputation fur their loyalty and attachment to the royal family. The necessary errs ngenients, it is true, were most unaccountably del. yeti to the last moment, though other towns had set the example of early preparation. We pretend not to say whose business it was to become the first mover in the affair. It is sufficient to know that as MANS as some mode of evincing their loyalty was presented to the in. habitants, they eagerly and cheerfully embraced it. Eall) in the morning the bells were rung, and peals were given et in terra!' throughout the day. Tire firing of canton also was smartly kept up during the same period. The shops and manufactories, with scarcely an exception, were cloud, and all classes regarded the day as one of joy and prultites. At half-past eleven o'clock, agreeably to previous arrangements. the magistrates, public bodies, and societies, woo were to form the procession on this occasion assembled at the New Corn Exchange, and at twelve o'clock proceeded in the fol lowing order over Bionktoidge, up Wain ate, Haymarket, King.street, Higb.street, Fugate, Barker s.p sal, Division. street, Carver•strest, Duke street, Eyre-street, along surrey. street, Norfolk-s tr eet, Market-street, Dixon -lane, mos. Street bridge to the front of Coen Exchange, where they formed a square, with the bands and singers in the centre. Toe bands played the national air, which was afterwards sung to the national anthem by all present. The ceremony was then concluded by nine cheers. The numbers which asscm bled to witness the procession at the time of its ratting were immense, and the crowds that lined the whole of the streets through which it moved exceeded any thing of the kind we have wimeseed in this town. The weather on the whole was very unfavourable, particularly towards the close of the pro ceedings. The rain which had more or less prevailed all the morning was then falling in a heavy .bower. A plentiful dinner, consisting of the old English fare of roast beef and plum padding, was provided for the members of the Mason's Benefit Society. and the Benevolent Sick So ciety, by Mr. Hudson, at the Ball, Town - head - street. After the cloth was drawn, the following toast was drank with the greatest enthusiasm :—" The King, long may lie reign in the hearts of his people." The national anthem was after wards sung by the company. The chairman then gave, " The brightest ornament of the British throne, our Gracious Queen Adelaide ." " Prosperity to all Benefit Societies." Other patriotic toasts were given, and the day was a, ant in great harmony. The Cutlers' Company, with a number of friends took dinner at their Hall. Public dinners were also held at almost all the principal inns, aad at a large number of pub lic houses. Royal salutes were fired by the Artillery sta. tinned at the Barracks, and some of the staff of the Local Militia, with some of the field.pieces belonging to the town.
