" The Queen thinks it proper to inform the Home of Ceounons, that she has received a communication from the King's Ministers, plainly intimating an intention to prorogne the Parliament iinmetliately, and accompanied by an offer of money for her support, and fur providing her with nith a residence until a new Session may be holden. " This offer the Queen has had no hesitation in re fusing. While the late extraordinary proceedings were i•pending, it might be fit for her to accept the ad vances I • made fur her tesoper.iry accommodation—but she natu rally expected that the failure of that unparalleled at tempt to degrade the Royal Family, would be isnmedi- +~ ~~ ST, ately followed by submitting some permanent tonsure to the wisdom of Parliament—and she has felt that she could no longer, with propriety, receive from the Mini sters what she is well assured the liberality of the House of the Commons would have granted, as alike essential to the dignity of the Throne, and demanded by the plainest principles of jisetke. " If the Queen is to understand that new proceedings are meditated against her, she throws herself with nm abated confidence on the Representatives of the People, fully relying on their justice and wisdom, to take 'free ' tual steps to protect her from the farther vexation of un• I necessary delay, and to provide that these unexampled persecutions may at length be brought to a clime."

One soh' wool nail wu cony a learn to fa come, was a niode, if not quite new, yet one to Directors of the Councils of our KINGS have seldom ventured to resort. Prompt, decisive and disdainful, it was carried on with a high hand, in the character much rather of the times of prerogative than of the Constitution, and of the advisers of the anew of STVART, than that of the Honsetrf SatireWeb*. It was a proceeding which will long intliVe'tili Ultimo* occurrences of this unprecedented and wonder-work ing period, and challenge comparison with the similar of any past. The expulsion of the SPEAKER from the Chair of the House of Commons was seised upon by the late distinguished President of our Academy of Painting, to exhibit in a single tablet the insolence and arbitrary power of a CeonweLt and his Govern ment. "Take away that bauble," did the figure of ►hat usurper seem to say, when its finger pointed to the mace upon the table. If ever a future artist shall desire to depict a companion to.that celebrated piece of Mr. War's, he will select There was, indeed, no tyrant then, to order " the bauble'. to be taken away. The customary forms of the House were observed by the Slaters, in moving at the night and voice of the Officer, who came to summon the Commons to hear the Kixo's Commission read. But at the same moment there was standing on the floor of the House the Souctrovi-Gessaat. of the QVZIN, with a written Message in his band from her MaassTr to the House of Commons, to which in vain he solicited the attention of the !insoles'. In that me meat, amidst the calls of the members to bespeak the ac quiescence of their President to the interesting communi cation about to be made, the mace abruptly moved off, and the SPKAKKR, with a mein disturbed, and hurried pace, moved also ; and attended with sounds unwonted in a place of such high dignity, or indeed in any place where decorum is unviolated, he pro ceeded to the House of Peers. But whatever parallel may be found in the preliminary stage of the progress of the mace, its subsequent ad venture differed somewhat from the history of its pre decessor. The mace retained its customary connection I with the Speaker ; but neither mace nor Speaker re turned, as, according to all former usage, they might have been expected to the House of Commons. Many Members of the House, who had declined accompany jog their President, remained in their seats, awaiting his return. But instead of returning to the Com mons' House, he proceeded to his own. The forms of the Haute were nnacconiplished, the business I d the day was rendered incomplete, the usual com munication of the SPEAKER'S errand was omitted, and I the Members were left to inference alone, to conclude that the Parliament was Prorogued!!! S By this manceuvre hare the Ministers put away from them for a while that awful reckoning they must render to the Representatives of their country. Bat the day of judgment will come at last, and conic with greater aggravation for the pro crastination and the artifices they have employed. A reflecting people cannot receive their out rages without resentment ; and the case of an in sulted and an injured Qucas, whose application has been thus evaded, cannot fail to augment its claims for redress. The dismissal of Parliament, after a Session of such unexampled fatigue, without the usual Speech from the Throne, is another circumstance which cannot fail to excite general surprise. The only instance of such an euctremouions dismissal since the time of Charles the Second, was the propogation which took place when Gerd Thutlow was Chancellor, on the nib October, 17A5. Letters from Naples state, that the British Minister Sir William A'Conrt, has invited the King to retire on board the English Admiral's •hip, with his family ; and has pledged himself for his safety if he should cision. We trust that it is pacific. ARCTIC EXPEDITION.--The new attempt, we an flounced, to explore a North-West passage to the Paci fic Ocean, will, we understand, be undertaken the ensuing season, under the direction of the judicious and persevering commander of the late Expedition. It is not intended, however, to make the attempt in so 'high a latitude as Lancaster Sound. The difficulties , and dangers, the research to ships and crews the best prepared, would render a passage in that latitude, should it chance to be discovered, of little avail to commercial vessels. 6u a review of circumstances that have been ascertained by Captain Parry, and other na vigators, it is determined next season to explore the !American coast in a more southerly direction. I Her Majesty, on Saturday last, honoured Win. Williams, Esq. M. P. by her presence at dinner, at his mansion fronting the river next Cumberland-gar dens. A distinguished company were present to re ceive the Queen, amonest whom were--his Royal Highness the Duke of Sts sex and Prince Leopold, Lady Ann Hamilton, Lady Caroline Darner, Mr. Al derman Wood and f.imily, and several foreigners of distinction. 11r. Williams's mansion is that which was inhabited by the late Duke of Ilrunswick, her Majesty's only brother, who fell at Waterloo, where his Serene Highness Wag frequently in the habit of re ceiving her Majesty, when Princess of Wales, and her beloved and lamented daughter, the late Princess Charlotte.

The departure of the worthy Sheriffs from the Court of Common Council, on Tuesday last, before the question was decided for addressing the Queen, WAS owing to a pledge they had given to attend the opening dinner at the (Hobe Tavern.

The (Robe Tavern has been opened in a style of comfort and elegance altogether Isorrelk in the British metropolis. It combines economy, with all the advantages of superior accommodation. and is on the plan of the Restaratenrs of Paris. To Mr. Williams. the pro prietor, the public are much indebted for the spirit Ittid ability he has displayed in commencing and car rying into elocution an establishment of this extensive stature. On the occasion to which we have alluded, One one hundred g entlemen, principally of the Ward, expressed themselves highly gratified at the superiority of the dinner and wines, conflating a *very delicacy the season could afford.
