The French mails arrived this morning, bringing Paris papers to the 14tb. On Monday the KING received the following . Ad dress from the Chamber of Deputies, presented by the President and a Deputation : " Stsa—.ll is with a sentiment always renewed of br a e aid gratitoJe, that your faithful subjects, title Deputies of the Departments come to the foot of your Altrone, with the homage of their devotedness and their respect. " They have partaken of the lively emotion ydlir IhiSITY cannot fail to have felt when retracing the *fiefs which have laceratedyour paternal breast, sod dweking upon the blessings of Providence, which to so many regrets, has caused so many hopes to sueeeed. Stns---Mosraing was in your :Aoesikeellitellairtialli Si your kingdom. A son is granted to your prayers, to our enpplications, sad to our tears. Consoled by the miracle of his birth, France counts with pride, in the family of her Kings, a new scion of Sr. Louts, another Blanche of UmrirlLLZ. " In the midst of the transports of joy excited by this memorable event, dangers menace the country. Your *weft has announced to your people, that which is required of your love in the present crisis of arairs. Prance has responded to this noble appeal. What blow can herrsfter crush a nation wherein the people always . find in the magnanimity of the KING, a pledge of its safety, and the KING in the devotedness and confidence of his people, the measure of his strength ? If time has strengthened between yobr klAres” and the SovanitioNs, this happy union which has given us peace, and raised tip the ancient bases of one social order, your grateful people will never forget that they owe to your wisdom, the conti nuation of this blessing. " In vain will the discontented still endeavour to trouble our happiness and our security, by their im pious projects. France, which deeply detests their doc tr:ne4 and their conspiracies, will arm herself' to de fend the legitimate Throne, and will regulate her von-s and her duties by the language of your Ma.. JEST V. " Already, under the paternal sceptre which she cherishes, oar destinies again having becoMe pros perous, promises us an era which for a long 'time e.tided our efforts. Industry impri.res ; returning commerce seeks to open new sources; agriculture flou rishes, and the arts, encouraged, enric►es with useful discoveries, and consecrates around us more glorious ani more affecting recollection. Sire,—We shall heaoefor*ard, reap the fruit of the wisdom and of the perseverance of your M A Jzsrv. Yon love known how to guarantee the first movements of sondem:est for your people : the diminution of imposts wnich you have announced has been the natural and progressive effect of the improvement of the revenues of the state, of the econ ony which you hare prescribed and of the solicitude of the public credit. Thus comfort has emanated from the bosom of order and gives to Four MAJESTY tie* means of confirming it. " And what blessings ought not France stilt to ex vect from the firm and invariable good will of its himc, and the loyal and constant support of the two Chambers ! " To fortify the antliority of religion upon the mind of the people, to reline the manners by a system of christian and monarchic education, to manifest the brilliancy and the dignity of the depositories of the laws ; to give to public force that wise organization Ishich assures tranquillity within and peace without ; to divide the executive authority without deranging the unity of the pawn ; to improve all the institu tions which are derived from the charter, and which might to protect our liberties ; these are the well knows intentions of your Majesty ; these are also our I duties; and St is thus that France will give to the world those lessons which, to borrow the words of your %assn. she has unfortunately rendered neces sary. These important ameliorations, Sire, we will pursue with moderation and energy. We will obtain thess-by the exercise of patience, which is only the act of waiting the natural progress of that good already touimeneed. " May Heaven, measuring the course of your years, by the vows and wants of your people, make to shine in all Asir splendour upon Francs and upon your august family, those tranquil and serene days, which the presence of • new heir to the Throne presage* to as.• • His MAJEiTt in reply said : " I'w deeply sensible of the sentiments of the Chamber of Deputies. la expressing them, you dere lope sty intentions. It is answering that you will seemed me. It is giving me a pledge of the union which onfritte exist between wand the chambers, and wilt* will asinine happiness to my people, the only peg attire, the only good which can truly touch my heart." in the Sitting of the Chamber of Deputies on Sa turday, the Ilinistvr of Finance introduced a project of law relative to the Badges. 141ters from Vienna, dated December 21; contain a report that a counter order was received at the very Inoteest that the evinipages of the court were ready to p r oceed to Laybach. Some persons infer from thews that war was about to commence forth- Mitt', and that the projected interview ovoid sot take place; ethers on the contrary, sup.'

Letters from Naples state, that in consequence of a su dd.% squall of wind, the Vengenr, the Kevolutionaire, and the Duchess of B e r r i, w hi c h composed the squadron conveying the King, were obliged to slacken their sails on the 14th, and put 'into the nearest harbour. The bowsprit of the Vengeur received some damage, but it was promptly repaired. The King of Naples disembarked at Livonia on the 20th of December. The Ministers accredited at the Germanic diet, have received a confidential declaration in the name of the Allied Sovereigns. These are therefore no longer in doubt, as to their determination with regard to Naples. This accounts from Madrid, dated Dec. 21, rep-e -sent that country to be in a very unsettled state, parti cularly in Palencia, in the province of Leon, and in the provinces.of Seville sad °allies. The Diplomatists Sint to Buenos Ayres have bees well received. No official intelligence from Rio Janeiro bas been received in Portugal. PUNCH Ft:NM—Five per Cents, 79f. 75c. ; Bank Actions, 1440 f. The various and copious intelligence we have this forenoon received from the Continent, precludes us, in consequence of the space it occupies in our columns, from accompanying it with any commentary, and pre vent us entering at any length into the interesting topics of a domestic nature, which present themselves to our notice. We caonot, however, forbear notic ing the sequel of the proceedings at Dublin, of the leading gentlemen who had appeared in opposi tion to the address that was proposed at the late County Meeting there. Another Meeting was very promptly called for the purpose of considering the best means to be adopted in consequence of the late outrage on the Freeholders of the County of Dublin, and although only a few hours' notice was given of the design, one of the most numerous and respecta ble meetings that had been for some time witnessed in Dublin took place. We are under the necessity of post poning till Monday a detail of the proceedings, and add only to the account which will be found in another column, that the meeting was adjourned until Thurs day next, to receive the Report of the Committee, which was then appointed. A Cabinet Council is stated to have been held yis terday, which was attended by many of his Majesty'p Ministers. The result, as reported, was, that Lord Clonwilliam was to leave this metropolis on s special mission to the Court of Vienna. By the Uerman papers we learn, that a fire sud debly broke out in the apartments of Lady STEWART at Vienna, which, though happily no person received any bodily injury, destroyed property to the amount of 200,000 florins. The following extract from a late American Paper exhibits the nature of the instructions sent by the I Court of Brasil to its Minister in the United States, on the subject-of the present condition of Portugal " The Portuguese Minister at Washington has sent circulars to the Consuls in the United States, in which he says, that owing to the present state of disaffection in the kingdom of Portugal, the Consuls are no longer to issue passports to vessels or persons bound to Fi guiero, Aveiro, Oporto, Villa de Conde, Vienna, Cor ninha, or to any other harbour or creek in the northern provinces of Portugal." The Address of the Lir.ry of London to her Ma jesty the Queen, voted in Common Hall, will he pre sented to her Majesty on Monday, the 15th instant, by the Lord Mayor, Aldermen, and Sheriffs, accom panied by a large body of the Livery, who are anxious to pay their respects to their Queen on this interest ing occasion. In consequence of the accounts of the state of the Marquis of Londonderry, which arrived from Ireland, as exclusively appeared in our extract from The Dub lin &exist Post, it was confidently reported in the reify that his Lordship was actually dead, and specula tion was attively employed upon it all the afternoon.. There appears, however, to have been as little ground for the report as for the speculation. No iutelligeuce has been received of the Marquis's death. His Lord ship was, indeed, indisposed, and in the eighty-second year of his age ; but were he actually dead, though Lord Castlereagh, his eldest son, would succeed to his titles and estates, he would not be removed to the House' f Peen, as the late Marquis was only one of the Representative Peers, and had no British title. Lord Castlereagh would, as has been stated, be obliged to vacate his seat for the county of Down, for no Irish Peer is eligible to a seat in the House of Commons, as representative of any place in Ireland. He is now, however, admitted by the Act of Union, to be what he was before thai Act, eligible as a Commoner of Eng : land, to be a representative for any English borough; so that in ease of the change contemplated taking place, it would only cause a few days suspension of hie fractions in the House of Commons: 1 Dy The Liuorpool Courier we learn that within three dsys, sot less than seventeen individnals of that town and neighbourhood have met a premature death, by incantinaly venturing upon the ice, Which, it would appear, wits at that serpent, in avery insecure state• A .44renmstancwwhich bad nearly proved fatal, oe• earrod at the new Chapel, ih varr's-lane, Birmingham, on %noisy ovoolig.

A Public Meeting was held at D'Arry's on the Ist ink. to discuss the hest steps that ought to be take. is consenttence of the•late outrage pn the' Freeholders of the County of Dublin, on Saturday, at Kilmairobilm. From the Second Edition of The Freeman's .lortrael e immediately after the Meeting separated, we learn, that it had been extremely numerous and highly wspeciable. A Committee of Fifteen Gentlemen was appointed " to consider the best means of demanding retires,' fur the outrage perpetrated on the Freeholders pf the county of Dublin, at Kilmainham, on Saturday last," and report their opinion to an adjournment of the present Meeting. to be held at D'Arcy's, at two o'clock on Thursday next. The marked and warm thanks of the Meeting were voted to Lord Cloncurry, for bis manly and patrietis conduct—and it was the general sentiment of the Fete holders, that the Government must feel itself called von to supersede Sir Richard Steele immediately. • . The following Requisition has been sent to . the Lord Mayor MT LORD—We, the undersigned members of the Court of CommenCounci I, request your Lordship will con vene an early Court to take into consideration the expe diency of petitioning Parliament to use such measures as in tkeir wisdom might Berta meet for effecting the restitMloo of her Majesty's name into the Liturgy, her restoration to her rights and dignities as Queen, and a rigid inquiry into the unconstitutional proceedings against her Majesty. --sth of January, MI." The Lord Mayor has appointed Thursday next, the 11111 instant, at twelve u'clucli. A meeting of the Irish Oentlemen now in Londoh will be held at the Freemasons' Tavern on Tuesday next, to address the Queen ; and for other purposes. The chair to be taken at one o'clock. The loyal folks at Liverpool in their arrangements for the entertainment of the Duke of Wellington, rrrkoned without their prod. After they had pre pared a room, appointed stewards, and settled all ser viee of the dinner•table, they limit off a deputation to invite the Noble Diikeovhen lo! they found his ((rare on the eve of leaving. Cheshire, to attend a special Cabinet Council in London. In compliance with a Requisition, signed by np ' wards of 1:541 of the inhabitant householders of the Borough of Lewes, a meeting was held at the County Hall, on Wednesday last, Mr. John Ade, Gent. the senior High Constable, in the Chair ; when an Ad dress to the Queen, congratulating her Majesty on the failure of the Bill of Pains and Penalties, was ' agreed to. After which a dutiful and loyal address to the King, praying his Majesty to dismiss his pre , sent Ministers, to order her Majesty's name to be in serted in the Liturgy, and to grant her Majesty a suitable provision in this country, was moved and 1 1 carried. The Meeting was very numerous. Among those present were Sir T. It. Kemp, I. O. Dalbiar, D. W. Harvey, I'. Johnston,., 11. Black ,' man, jun. and T. Cooper, i:sqrs. We think it proper (says the Wasgoir Chronicle) to give publicity to the following circular, which has beet confined to those only who are supposed to be adherents of Ministers. It shows the ways that are followed in getting up to}•al addresses : " Paisley, 29th Dec. le2o. " The nentlemen who signed the requisition to the convener of the county of Renfrew to call a meeting of the noblemen, freeholders, justices of the peace, coin snissioners of supply, and magistrates of towns, to meet at Renfrew on Thursday, the 4th January nest, for the purpose of taking into consideration the propriety of addressing his Majesty on the present state of the coun , try. earnestly and particularly request your attendance, at 12 o'clock on that day, to support the address which the Vice-Lieutenant of the county will have the honour to propose on that occasion." • Our readers in general may not be aware that the Vice-Lieutenant of the county of Renfrew holds one of the most lucrative offices under Government in the West of Scotland. A meeting of the Inhabitants of Cheltenham was held in that town on Tuesday last, the Honourable K. Moore in the Chair, when an Address to his Majesty was unanimously agreed to, professing their unshaken loyalty and attachment, but condemning the proceed ings of Ministers against the Queen, and praying their dismissal from office. Thanks were at the same time voted to the Unkeof Uloncester,Marauess of Lanolown, Ear! (tress, and several other Peers, who took an active i part against those proceedings in the House of Lords. iT. (tray, Esq. the mower of the Address, commenced his sp. ech with the following explanation of the cause of the present meeting : In common with every well-wisher to the peace 1 and prosperity of the town, I heg to express my regret, that any political agitation should have been ex cited among us; bat when an Address, framed at a pri vate meotin" of a few individuals, and not in the nsnal course Submitted to the test of public opinion and din cession, has been ushered into the world under the title of " Cheltenham Loynd Address," and is stated to hovel been passed at a meeting of the inhabitants and visitants ; of the town and neighbourhood of Cheltinham, held for the purpose of framing a loyal Address to his Majesty, King George IV.; when that Address contains a direct attack upon the main-stay of our liberty, the Public Press, together with a general charge of treasonable at tempts, in toy humble opinion, apuhlic Declaration of the if:habitats., of Cheltenham, at a Meeting thus regularly convened, was imperatively called fart. Mr. (fray concluded a long and excellent speech with moving the Address, which was ably supported by H. W. Harris, and R. Phelps, Esqrs. The Address received 300 signatures in the course of three hoursi on Wednesday. .At the bead of the little junta of birds of passage that teamed the snug Loyal Address alleded to by Mr. Grey, were Lord Moant-Earl and Sir H. Pyna, Kat. A requisition numerously signed by the Nobility, Gentry, Clergy, and Prreholders of the County of Derby, has been forwarded to the .

'TEOROLOGr. The frost, which colnineheed at the beginning of last week, continued ■early se the close of this with remark• able severity. Independent of the degree of cold as last dicated by thellsonnorneter, the rigour of the weather Ives highly 'granted by the keenness of the wind, which blew violently the thief part of this week as well as the preceding. As an evidence of the intenseness of the frost, it may be proper to notice, that the canal in St. James's Park was skalted on so early as Priday scen ts' gh t, the river, “ where Theme* lirst ittry I grows," was frozen over the beginning of this week, and the naviga• don of the wider pans msteriaily impeded by the are mulations of ice. It is also descrying notice, that the . south-western districts of the island sdifered sooner and . more severely in this tray than the metropolis or its neighbourhood, and that on Wednesthty maroing last, they were visited by a fall of snow of ma"y hours dun tion, which rendered the roads in 'various places, frsi the drift, almost impassable. Thoegh the appearance ot the barometer as well as of the aurrosphere s...dicated a similar stjno about the same time in London, it did not actually orctir till yesterd,ty of noon, when a heavy shower commenced, which continued till after sit 9'elogls. Subsequent to the snow, a sharp shower of sleet feit •ft the evening, soon followed by a gentle Moth% with the wind about S. B.—The lowest de.4ree at which the they. mometer was observed during the late frost in the day time was on Tuesday last, between seven and eight o'clock iu the ereiiing. The mercury tea. then for a while at 22 deg., but it rose with great rapidity soon after. Among theleculisrities by which this frost was dis tinguished, is the circum s ta nce t h at it ,r3S muc h ear li er anti wore rigorous in the soothers than in the north ern portions of the island. While we in London were wafering all last week from the inclemency at Use weather, the thermometer at Edinburgh, thongb the wind blow there, as with us, from E. or E. N. E. was never lower than 33 dog. On the first day of the year, however, the frost at length costa menced there. This circumstance, apparently 'strays dinary, admits an easy and satisfactory solution. At Edinburgh, it must first be ob!ervell, the Geffen Ocean is live or six hundred miles wide, and in that part of England moth of Lonilcri, the ses, on an average, is not more than forty. The neat point to be noticed is the properly possessed by muses of water geners!ly df communicatiog, as well as receiving, heat more readily than land. In water above 43 degrees, it ha bees ob served by Sir Humphrey Davy, as soon as the tipper stratum is cooled, whether by evaporations, or with %Lc action of the wind, it sinits in the mass of fluid, and its place is supplied by warmer water from below ; and till the temperature of the whole mass is reduced newly to 40 degrees, the surface cannat he the coolest part. It follows, therefore, that wherever water exists in consi derable masses, during the early periods of a frost, i!s surface will be warmer than that of the contiguous land, and that, according to the breadth of the water I r sea, over which the frerzinx air is wafted, its sharpies% must be proportionally mitigated by the abstraction tit heat from tl'e aqueous and everchanging surface.
