- TSR KMTG. EPROM Till LILTTIBIS or A PRIVA TS COIRRISPONDISSIT., lilacs, Nov. 4.—Yesterday his Majesty left Colby* at an early hour, and at four o'clock arrived at Bat flee, a small place, about fifteen English miles hestee. I happened to be there at the time, and there is no true Englishman living who would not have felt the —JlAttioligaatkaa.againee the Hem, of Orange that I did, at peeing the total want of respect and attention whieb was betrayed Wear& our Sovereign—the So .- 4renelgo of the most enlightened people and the most extensive territory In the world. Will it be believed that in the country of a Potentate who owes .us more than he can ever repay—who owes us all and every thing, his Majesty's carriage was ,dragged along by eight wrdtched hacks, driven by eight ragged peasants, whose ikuslid appearance was enough to excite the disgust of all who beheld them ? But this was not all; for 'tie jaded animals that had already gone to the full extent of their might, were obliged to pro ceed all the way to this town, no horses being in readi ness to relieve them. The Duke of Cumberland, for getting that hie illustrious Brother was also his So vereign, sent forward some of his whiskered miniuns by the !tortes that bad been ordered for the Royal suite, and his Majesty's progress was delayed in conse gt, qaence, as well as by a trifling accident which occurred to the carriage, from one of the springs having given way. It was eight o'clock before his Majesty arrived here, and opposite the hotel there were no demonstra tions of proper attention on the part of the Autho rities. There was no band—no guard of honour — no deputation, either civil or military; in short, the King of England was treated as if he were only one of the plain bourgeois. Prom this presumptuous in difference on the part of the Belgian Government we must infer, either that the individual who wields the sceptre is the most ungrateful man in the universe, or that he acts under the direct influence of the Em peror of Russia. The latter is the more probable conclusion. Buest et.s, Nov. s.—His Majesty has just arrived here and gone to the residence of Lord Clancarty, where he oecnpies for the night the same apartments he did before. Ile will proceed to-morrow as far as Bruges, and thence to Calais on the day following. Nothing has occurred here worth noticing: the Belgians received his Majesty on his return, precisely in the same manner as they did when lie first made his appearance among them. The I /*lke of Cumberland has not accompanied his Majesty hither. lineage, Nov. 6.—This evening his Majesty arrived here from Brussels, and took up his abode for the night at the Hotel de Pays Bos. There are not less than 70 English families residing in this town, and many of them are of great respectability. Such of them as had vehicles, drove out some distance to meet their Sove reign, and those who had not were seen on foot in the suburbs of the town anxiously waiting the arrival of the • Royal carriage. As soon as it came in view, they gave three heady sheers in the style of their native country. • elute, WEDNESDAY, Nov. 7, Twat me O'CLOCK.- This mornink, on my arrival at Dunkirk, at five o'clock, I discovered that Sir C. Stewert, our Ambassador at Pa ris, had come in a few minutes before, and was then waiting at the Hotel de Mandrel., for the purpose of pay ing his respects to his Majesty, and of congratulating him on his return. i also learned that tbe Duke d'An gonlense had gone with the same intention as far as Lisle not knowing that his Majesty bad varied his route, and taken a somewhat shorter one. His Royal Highness wrs expected at Dunkirk every moment,. having been ap prised at Lisle that the Kin/ bad gone by the way of Ghent and Bruges. The King of France, and those Frenchmen who are attached to his dynasty, have ter wilily not forgotten bow large a de b t of gtatitude they owe to our Sovereign, and the distinguished attention with which they have received him, forms a gratifying contrast with the worthless conduct of their Belgian neighbours. THE KING'S ARRIVAL AT CALAIS. HALF-PAST FIVII O'CLOCK.—A discharge of artillery at the northern barrier announced, a few moments since, that his Majesty the King of England was en tering the town, and the Royal carriage, escorted by a squadron of cavalry, has just driven into the court yard of Deseins' Hotel, where his Majesty alighted in excellent health and spirits. I understand that the Duke d'Angoolerne had arrived a short time previously. but lam not certain as to the fact. The Duke de Chartres, however, and some of the distinguished No blemen of the country were at the door to receive his Majesty, and a Guard of Honour was stationed oppo site to it. 1 observed Sir William Curtis among those of his Majesty's British subjects who had come to greet their Sovereign on his return. Immediately after his Majesty's arrival, Lindens:et Reeve. of the Starling cutter, w a sent off to Walmer Castle. near Deal, with dispatches for the Eal of Liverpool. I have just learned that his Majesty inteuds embarking for England at tea o'clock this night. and be may thetefore be expected on the shores Q M, native coun try at an early hour to-morrow, the weather being ex tremely favourable for his passage. Sir Chas. Paget, and the officers under him, have made all the neces sary arrangements for getting his Majesty on hoard in the most comfortable manner. It is thought that his Majesty, after coining perhaps to Margate. will pro ceed, by the steam-boat; up the river, as _far as Green wich, where he will disembark. THE RING'S ARRIVAL. IN ENGLAND, .., ... Ds*a, Orr. B.—Sit o'clock in the morning.— This wonting at half-put ooe o'clock, the Royal squadron rode into the Downs in 6ne style, the Royal , tkorge with a streaming pendant at her cast-head, and seines far a-head of all the other vessels. They all issued towards Ramsgate, but had' not proceeded very far. whoa they retuned, sad anchored for the night in the Dowse.

The sailors cheered his &Healy ,. as be passed over to the quay, and at length , about a quarter before ten o'clock his Majesty was welcomed to the hind of freedom by the applauses of the thousands on the pier and quay. His Majesty seemed gratified with these marks of attention, and bowed repeatedly to all around. The Marquess Conyngham, Sir B. Bloom field, Sir . W. Knighton, and many other gentlemen fol lowed the King, anti participated in those feelings of satisfaction which fitted the bosoms of all on landing in his native country. The Royal carriage was drawn np immediately before the door of Sir Wm. Curtis's house, and his Majesty attended by Sir B. Bloomfield and Sir W. Knighton, set off instantly for Canterbury. The Royal carriage was followed by an escort of soldiers. Soon after his de parture from Ramsgate, his Majesty was met by the Earl of Liverpool, in his carriage, with whom he held a short conversation. ROCHESTER, 4 o'cLoca.—llia Majesty has just, passed through this town, on his way to London, having landed at an early hour this morning at Rams gate, where he remained till ten o'clock. It appears that the wind was nut favourable enough to admit of his Majesty's coming up by water, and be therefore preferred the more secure ronte. As yet his Majesty has travelled from the coast without any escort ; but I understand that lie is to be joined by a troop of ca valry as lie approaches the capital.

While the ravages of the yellow-fever appearnte abating it% Spain, the BOURDON Ultras still ;online' to spread their political pestilence ; rediculous minds are circulated, end the Ultra Clergy at work to cry down the Constitution. It ratty be recollected the de struction of the French Clergy after the Revolution,' originated in their under-hand conspiracies against liberty. After that great change the people found dem their most inveterate enemies. It is nearly as bhd in Spain, they. endeavour to corrupt all about the cOnrt, and are equally active in the Provinces, some of them have taken up arms and continue to infuriate the dupes that follow them. The birth-day of Riego bas been celebrated at Madrid. The people will not lose sight of this brave man, no more than the English people will of Sir RonauT WILSON. At Cadiz. he overturned the murderers in regimentals, who fired upon the people ? his next attack, it is to be hoped. will overturn the French ma Ultra power in Spain, and let the Cortes proceed with the glorious work of regeneration unshackled. Above all things, it will be necessary for him and every genuine friend of liberty in Spain to keep a watchful eye upon the clergy. they are always on the look out for power ; and from their uniform abuse of it, every wise. Government sh,ould keep them from temporal meddling, as they will always be ready to espouse the cause of the rich against the poor ; the strong against the weak; they expect nothing from poverty, and poverty has a little to expect from them. The ranges of that diseetse, which has so severely afflicted and distracted Spain, are we trust by this time checked, and their cessation will enable the Codes and the people to act together. and put down that detest able *Woo, kept alive by the sticklers fur divine right ' and passive obedience, the only other evil which Spain has airy reason to dread. The King of FRANCE and his Ministers wish the Russians to patch up a peace with the nuke, and let the Greeks take care of themselves. The is what might be expected from a BOURBON ; no christian feel i o for the permeated Omits. We have repeateilly said shey could place so reliance an Despots, and we should not be surprised that if the Turks were con quered by the Russians, to see the Greeks share the fate of the Poles.' At the reeetinr of the Austrian. Prussian, and English Ministers at Hanover, the Prus sian appeared decidedly in favour of ALEX ANDER.••••- SO be was for BONAPARTE, Like the Vicar of BRAT, he takes the strongest side, and his word is as good as the Austrian's. The Autocrat, in his re ply to Austria, is sail to leave alleged that as he did not interfere with Austria in the conquest of Naples.so he did not consider his views relative to Turkey within the cognizance of the European powers. This is a pretty good sample of his attachment to the Unholy Alli ance which will fare with him, just as it may suit his views against the lilussnlman. If England and France were to assist in establishing the Greeks, it would form a guard to their commerce in the Mediterranean and Atlantic, which Russia is so anxious to obtain, but the Greeks have raised the standard of liberty, and need expect no help from French or English ULTRAR; they would look placidly on, and see every Greek in the Turkish do. minions butchered. before they would interfere or give assistance to that cause which has been the boast of Englishmen, until frittered away by PITT and his worthless journeymen. Austria says Russia will take no step against Turkey without notice, we suppose he will bid the Turk de fend himself before he strikes. This may be very fine from one despot to another; yet we would not credit either as far as we could throw them. ALEXANDER has acted independent of advice or assistance and will continue so to do. His designs on Turkey never will be given op. and we again and again repeat, that he will either im pose new laws and regulations on the blahomedans. subject to the intervention of a Russian army. or drive them out of Europe, and after that snap his finger at the wise curet of France and England. He wants a footing in the East and he will have it, so that $ meet iag of from all the other monarchies of ger* don't disturb him, he has an army of 500.400. men on foot, and wishes to place them in more temperate quarters than Siberia. He knows Prussia and Austria are poor beggars, without credit or character. that France has no navy, and that Baglish sailors are scattered all over the world disgusted with a preference given to the army : that the resourcesof England see not able to pay the interest of the debt without borrowing. that its agriculture is in a state of despondency, and its commerce but a name, its power crippled, and only formidable to its own people, its jails filled with men, wit* dare be hottest as well as with delinquents drives to a breach of the laws by a want of employmest o and the parish palaces filled with paupers.

This being Lord Mayor's • Day, the Bank is shut, but the Stock Exchange remains open. The Market appears to be !mooing. Consols, which left off yesterday at 78, have been done this morning at 77U for the Account. We have no reports in cir culation to account for this depression, but the heavi ness of our Market is attributed to. the operatigns in the French Funds, where, it is understood, the specu lators were gteat Bulls in Stock. To those persons who have hitherto been accus tomed to feel an honest pride in the generally re ceived opinion of the manly and independent character of Englishmen, the contents of the Ministerial journals, fur some months past in particular, must have been nauseating in the extreme. As to judge of these alone, the inference must be, that that free spirit, which had, at one time, raised us to be, really, "the envy and ad miration of surrounding nations," had left us, and that our only ambition, now, was to rival the dull slaves of Germany, and even to enter the lists with the wor shippers of the Indian Idol Jaggernaut. Of all the papers which attempt to prop up the fall- I lag cause of darkness and despotism, the slop-pail stands pre-eminent, and it would be difficult fur any, but those whose hard fate compels them to wade through its filth every morning, to conceive it possi ble that Englishmen could exist, who could write, and still less that any body of Englishmen could be found, who would voluntarily read the disgusting con tents of that dementatingjournal. It is, nevertheless, but too true, that the rotten system by which we have been so lung deluded and plundered, has generated a sufficient body of state caterpillars to support this paper, notwithstanding its daily outrages on decency and common sense. It should appear as if the supporters of the systens.j having become at last sensible, that their endeavearal 'to drive back the intellect of the nation into that stag' of barbarism and ignora'oee which atone could them a chance of continued existence, had arranged 4 plan, with the aid of the corrupt press, for creating that very confusion which they affect above all things to dread; the first step towards which is the brines* his Majesty's Person and Government into hatred aid contempt, and they seem to fancy that they have found the ready means of doing this. The part assigned to the corrupt press, seems to he to disgust every independent-minded and rational nun, by the most sickening and fulsome adulation of the K I NG. We will not stain our columns by a repetition of their flattery, alike degrading to themselves and to its object. But only observe, that in describing his Maigsve's progress through Germany, they appeared to represent his mere appearance as instantly dispen sing the 'utmost bliss to all around. The sun Shiva' forth with redoubled slendonr, the miserable in happy, the ragged clothed, and the hangry satis fi ed , and all this the simple result of is MAJICSTeII sheer ing his benign and. majestic countenance.

The Ministei also announced that ilt s short time a new coinage would be issued.

It is certain. indeed, distal soon as the Tarks leave Moldavia, the Hetui sts will return to it ; 6000 of them are between tit Dniester and the Pruth, and long for the moment ales they may avenge the blood of their brethren." Tie Turks seem sot to be the oely power that is hostile to the Greeks, for the Austrian Government is stated to have notified officially to the merchants of Trieste that the entrance into the iStates of the Emperor, of all Greeks who have taken any part in the distarbancn . . in Turkey, is strictly prohibited. Oa the other hied it is observed, in a Frankfott article, that those of the insurgents of Moldavia and Wallachia, who had less enabled to reach Bessarabia, had been well received by the Russian authorities of that provides ; sad the Nuremberg &tette says, " The friends of the Oreeis will learn with pleasure, that recently a greet Curt has issued instructions to its diplomatic agesti is foreign parts, according to which, individaals !hi IA to proceed to Greece, to the theatre of war, uttiviii present themselves to ask fir passports, my, 'Ws them without its being considered requisitelatstitr► gate them as to the object of their voyage.

In addition to these favourable symptoms, is an sztlile from Augsburg, dated 30th ult. that *hews the tenter and the spirit which the Greeks retain. Aceselitg to that account the Senate of Calamate, which vu considered the central Government of the Oneht, published on the 27th of July, the Masifew announcing the re-establishment of the Christian people of Greece, which was signed by tweet eight Archbishops or Bishops of Peloponenes. 77 Priors, 1,900 Papas, and a great numberof Moab. On the 27tb of Aug. it is added, the Archbishop trf Oerasano celebrated divine service in the Cloister of Ombloe, when upwards of four thousand Christie' , confessed to him, received the sacrament, and mobs oath to die for their country. By accounts received from the Mea:erranean, to a late date we learn, that ha consequence of the pren lence of the Yellow Fever in many parts of Spam,* Lieutenant-Governor of Gibraltar had issued a Pre• clamation, prohibiting all communication with Ant kingdom, except through the process of a regl*: quarantine.
