The health of her Royal Highness continues to he very good.—(Moniteur.—Parlie nffirielle.) It is thought that M. de C'ours•oisier will, on Saturday steal,. make his Report on one of the three laws relating to the Press. The Report on the estimates of Ministers, which must precede the Report on the several parts of the Budget, will be made in about a fortnight. Every thing indicates that the Chamber will accelerate its la bours, and that the Session will not be prolonged beyond Nay. It is rumoured, that the law on the responsibility of Ministers will not be discussed thi► year. The Budget and the Press will occupy the remainder of the Session. Several Swiss families, amounting to about 60 persons, walked yesterday in the streets of Paris. They are Ana. baptists, who have quitted their country with the inten tion of embarking at Havre for America. The aerwal of Lord Whitworth at Paris has been for souse days the object of conversation among our politi- Cit413,3/Iti a diplomatic mission is attributed to tins Am bassador that seems whoily destitute of probability. It is certain that Lord Whitworth was honoured with the partictolav friendship of the King of France when his 111ijesty ►esided at I forma ; that he has come to. Paris with his family no pass the flue season; and that the at tachment he bears to the King determined him, soon after Lis arrival, to repair to the Tuileries, where the King received him in private audience. It is not cor rect that the Ehglish Ambassador had presented him to his libjesty. Lord Whitworth requires no form.l is- Induction to be received by the King of France.

At six o'clock in the morning of the lor2d, a fire broke out in the Rosesfilal, the 6ioos retreat, situated in the Royal Park, near Stockholm, about a league (torn the city. The rapidity with which ihe flames extended pre vented the possibility of sating the house fmm total de struction, bur some furniture and works of art were pre 'en ed. The fire ccraireenced in the chimney, and the comm unication was the more prompt as the walls had but little thickness. PAR'S, :APRIL 13.—Yestetday being the anniversary of the entrance of his Royal Highness Monsieur into Paris„ the National Guard superseded the Hotly Guard of ',his Prince in their service, awl remained on duty 'anti' this morning. At noon, M irshal Oudinot and the Officers of the 12 Legions of the Parisian G n arl pre sented to his. Royal Highness their congratulations on that event. The Prince received them with his usual affability. Amongst other kind expressions his Royal Highness observed, that he should always feel himself happy when surrounded by the National Guard, and that the 12th of April would never fail to excite the most pleasing recollections, adding 3—" Gentlemen, I do not wear your uuiform, but I keep it by we, and will wear it in the hour of danger ; I know of none that is more splendid or more honourable." His Royal Highness afterwards received the Ministers, Deputies, Generals, &c. A repast had been prepared for the National Guard on duty ; at four o'clock the Prince entered the banquetting hall, which at his pre sence resounded with acclamations ; and, asking for a glass of wine, said—" Now, my friends, to the health of the King," which was received with shouts of nve k Noi ! Vise 211onsieur f After an interval of a few mo ments, Isis Royal Highness said—" My friends, to she health of the thirteen legions; I wish they should know that I drink to their glory and happiness!' The Prince shortly afterwards retired amidst expressions of general joy and affection. The Persian Ambassador passed the evening before last at the house of Maclaine the Duchess d'Escars. His Excellency walked last morning in the garden of the Tuileries. An Ordinance of Police, dated the 3d of April, and pasted yesterday abort Paris, renews the prohibition al ready given to the keepers of coffee-houses, taverns, billiard-rooms, kc. against keeping their respective cs tablishments open after eleven o'clock at night. The following are the only journals now permitted to enter Spain--The .Voniteur, the Gazette de France, the Journal de Paris, the Journal des Wale, and the Quo/i -dienxe. The English papers, and those of she Nether lands, are strictly forbidden. The assassination of M. de Kotzebue will probably be followed by consequences not foreseen by the infuriated wretches who armed the hand of young Sandi. M. de Struve, the Russian Minister at the Court of the Grand Duchy of Baden, proceeded to Manheim on the 2d inst., personally to collect all the details of this deplorable event, and at the same bite to cause to be de livered to hint all the r apers that might be found in the portefeuille of M. de Kotzebue, in his quality ut private correspondent to the Emperor Alexander. Notwithstanding the obstinate denials of Sands, it appears more and more established that he had accom plices. Au innkeeper of Weimberg has deposed, that when Sandi lodged at his house, he was accompanied by another young man. Other persons have given es deuce to the same effect; but the unknown disappeared at the town-gate of Matiheint, leaving to his fanatic comrade all the perils of the blow fate had consigned to his execution. Our private correspondent from Italy, observes the .lournal des Drbots, does not speak of any arrest, and affords no new motive for believing the reality of a con spiracy against his Majesty the Emperor of Austii.t. The Journals of Florence, Genoa, and Milan, du not notieu any disquieting circuinstinces. French Funds, April it.—Five per cents. 67f. 45c. Bank Stock, 15401. NI ASt 11 Ent , APRIL 6.—The death of the assassin of M. Kotzebue has been erroneously announced in the Jouruali.

APRIL 9.—.lisother article says, that this malt received his wounds in a quarrel at a public houct ; that an unhappy diss.ention has by sonic mutts broken out between the troops composing the garitsun, which would have probably been attended on this occas on fatal consequences but for the exertions of the officers, who with some difficulty restrained the soldiers of both corps, horse and foot, in their respective barracks.— Numerous patrols, both of hussars and infantry, hitt tiered the partial rencontres front becoming serious. 1 he presence of the Prince of Orange, who happened to be near the barracks, contributed greatly to restore order. A court-martial is engaged in the investigation of the affair, in order to punish the guilty. llANovra, APRIL 3.—The Assembly of the States is near to it. dissolution. In the sitting of to-day was read a communication front the Prince Regent, of the sth of January last, in which his Royal Highness de clares his views with respect to the future General A9O setnbly of the States, and requires the opinion of the Assembly. In this communication his Royal Highness ray %, "'that it is not the plan to make great changes in the Constitution, according to which the States base die tight to grant taxes, and to share in the legislation— partly because experience has shown the utility of this ancient Constitution of the country, and partly because Constitutions introduced upon merely theoretical prin ciples will never he so advantageous as those which hat e been gradually formed according to the wants of the State." In the Second Chamber will be the members of the Board of Taxes, who are not noble ; S deputies from the Administration of Ecclesiastical Property ; the deputies of the smaller Abbeys; me deputy from the Unit ersity of Gottingen ; 29 from the cities ; and 22 front the possessors of free estates, who do not belong to the Equestrian Order. The Hereditary Land-marshal (and in his absence the President of the Chief Board of Taxes) presides over the United Chambers. Each Chamber proposes three of its members, front whom the Sovereign selects one to be its President. The Diet meets eery year ; the members are elected for 6 Year•, but may be re-elected : no persons will eser be admitted to.hear the debates. The propositions from the Sovereign are to be ad dressed to both Chambers; it their decisions du not agree, an union is to be attempted by a commission chosen by both, to which Commissioners from the Sovereign may be added, to promote an agreement. It is neces.ary in propositions from the State that both Chambers should agree. The present assembly is invited to deli berate un this subject, alter which it will be dissolved. On Thursday morning the Prince Regent gave xi p) thence to Prince Esterha , the Duke of Wellington, and the Earl of Liver 1, at Carlton-house. At half-past three o'cloe • . his Royal Highness left Caulton•house in his travelling carriage, for Brighton. Tut DUKE or YORK.—FuII reports are sent daily to all the branches of the Royal Family of the state of the Duke of York, by Sir Henry Halford and Mr. Macgregor; the former continues in constant attendance upon his Royal Highness, to take every possible precaution to guard against fever. The fol lowing was Saturday's bulletin:— " Windsor Castle, April 17 " His Royal Ilighness the Duke of York remains free from fever, and u otherwise doing well. " HENRY lIALFORD. " I'. MACGREGOR." Lord Sidmnuth is still confined to his house, but is gradually getting better. Sir F. Burdett has been confined during the last fortnight by an attack of the gout. The account in Consols closed on Thursday, but the differences were not finally adjusted till Friday, when two defaulters only were declared, and those to a very considerable amount. The funds expe rienced great fluctuation in the course of the day ; and Consols for the May account were at one time quoted as low as 7!3. The reports concerning a large loan, as an indispensable part of the Ways and Means, which have been for some time past in cir culation, were on Friday renewed with increased confidence, and even became so definite as to fix the exact sum that Ministers would require, which was stated to be I 5,000,0001. as a loan, and a funding of Exchequer bills to the amount of 10,000,0001. These reports can only at present, it is evident, be founded in conjecture ; they Lippear,however, to have accomplished the object fur which they were cireu !ated. A new cast iron bridge is, we understand, in prepa ration at Woolwich, to re-place the Pagoda bridge in St. James's-park, the timbers of which are so much worn and decayed. Sir William Beechey has offered, in the hand somest manner, to complete the pictures left unfi nished by poor Harlow, on account of his heirs. By a Bill which has been brought into Parlia ment, for the better Regulation of the Scotch Jury Courts, it is expected that the proceedings will be rendered more expeditious and less expensive. It is proposed to send the w h o l e o f the eases in which damages or reparation is sought in money, to the Jury Court, as soon as defences are lodged in the Court of Session, without leaving any discretion to the Lord Ordinary, and without reporting issues to the Inner House.
