On Sunday the King attended mass in his tom apartments; the rest of the Royal Family heard the service performed in the Chapel Royal. Four of the students in Medicine, who had been detained in prison since the disturbances of last month, have been lib era t e d. The Court of Assize for the department of t h e fare sad Loire, lately tried several individuals for polikal and religious delinquencies. A man and if ife line condemned to a month's imprisonment fo „a ela ting religion at a masquerade t another cou ple ns cosikaned to six months' imprisonment for th re i ar , a nd telling a song, entitled " The Misfor tunes of Clysses and Ithacus; of Penelope and Telemachat;" the tribunal having judged that it con tained allusions offensive to the King, and directed against the order of succession. The Prefect of He rm& has ordered the strictest surveillance to be kept on the borders of his department, in order to prevent any communication with persons coming from Spain. These measurer, it is said, are Liken in conequenee of the situation of Majorca. Letters from Strasburg state that the King of Bavaria is at Baden. The sew Members of the Cortes have repaired to Madrid. Qairota made a triumphal entry into that capital on the 24th ultimo. He was received with acclama tion by the immense crowds collected on the occasion. —The Pacha of Jenina. who is making immense pre pirations for the war against the Porte, has nego cated with lonians and Italicks for supplies of arms and ammunition, far which be pays liberally on the retipt of them. It is said that the exportation, from Trieste, of arms, ice. will be prohibited. It is still imittful whether the Oreeks will join the cause of Ali. 'They have not forgot his tyranny and his per- Pecutious. The Asstria4 Observer says, news from Turkey state the position of Ali Pacha to be by no means favourable; and persons acquainted with it are of opi lion, that so far from bis being able to commence bos- head against the forces that will be brought against Lim. He appears disposed to submit to conditions.

Maglashkn, of the schooner Elisa, from Port an Prince, represents that place to be very sickly. Capt. Price, of the ship Eclipse, from Campeachy, inform• us that, on the arrival of the news of the adop tion of the Constitution by the Cortes at Madrid, the inhabitant• of Campeacby took the Archbishop from his bed at midnight, and compelled him to ring the church bell until break of day, when a general rejoicing took place, and the Constitution was proclaimed. RIMARKABLIE OCCCRIBINCE. MIDDLIEBRXR (VIRGINIA), MAY 30.—0 n the 13th instant, a piece of laud of upwards of five acres, laying ea the east side of the bank of the Lake Champlain, mak about 40 feet into the Lake, throwing the bed of the Lake up about 10 feet above the surface of the water. A part of the land was covered with small trees of various kinds, some of which were torn up by the mots. The pressure against the water occasioned it to rise 'early 3 feet on the opposite shore, which is &heat a mile ands half distant. The House of Cemmens was occupied last night, as it had been the proceeding, on a variety of bu siness, which, at say other season but the present, would have been felt of extraordinary interest.— The commencement of a barrack building in the ceighbouthood of the metropolis, on the sanction of the Treasury alone, and the incurring an expence of 70,0110/., in anticipation of the concurrence of Parliament, and without applying for its consent, are now deemed matters but of trifling moment. The Alien Bill, with all its odious features unsoftened, passes through its different stages, as Mr. Hamm= obsesses, without exciting concern ; sod the motion of Dr. LVORINGTON, on the documents from South Alerlea. is treated with an indifference which Sir funs Micstxvoun very justly and deeply regrets. h i' net the least nmeng the many evils which the prevention of the Qv as x has brought upon the atontry. that the public mind Las been absorbed by its con sideration, and the donsestk as well as foreign interests of the nation have tensed to satins the solicited* that Is their due.

When the selfishness and perfidy of ou► foreign allies are exposed, the utmost liberality and delicacy are bespoke in their behalf; it is only in our domestic relations, it would appear, that dis trust and se►erity are proper to be indulged. It is not against the Ministers, but the people, we must remark, that such harshness is allowed. When Sir J•tixe; MACKINTOSH proposed a clause in the Alien Bill for protecting the foreign witnesses for the QUEEN, Lord CA6TLIREAOII Could not conceive a more foul imputation upon the Government of • country than that it should be suspected to exercise its powers to obstruct the purposes of justice! This is language that any Government may employ, and that would defend the most despotic. What are all the ad mirable characteristics of the English Constitution, but expressions of jealousy, but guards against probable abuses. Such language is a libel against the Conti ttstion itself. It is the spirit of our Constitatioa, that man cannot be trusted with the exercise of power; and none of the fences it had raised to restrain abase eau be ever removed, without opening an inlet to oppression and grievance. severity ? What Bishop could it be ? We asked those questions when we heard the story ; but our informant, instead of satisfying our curiosity as to perms sad place, was content to quote his old acquaintance Radars. ..--- " la western dime there Is s town, Tolima that Hee in It well known ; Theeefbee then needs so 'wore be said here ; "relate Otos refer the reader." Papers from Madrid, to the !9th ult., have been re ceived. They announce the arrest of two individuals at Burgos, named Don Balthasar l'asqueiro and Don Francisco Ramirez, who were journeying through the provinces, and announcing that " Madrid was in great commotion—that the King had been compelled to fly, and that the inhahitants bad declared against the gar rison." Amongst their luggage were found packets of cartridges, 21 sheets of office circulars, not filled up, and a "Foreigner's °nide." It is added, that " the house at which they stopped in Burgos, has not the reputation of being attached to the new institutions." An investigation respecting them is proceeding. Tun Kvsn's CONlT.—Yesterday, at three o'clock, his Majesty held a Court at his Palace in Pall-wall.--- His Majesty afterwards held a Privy Council. '1 he King gave audiences to the Earl of Liverpool, Vis count Sidnionth, Viscount Melville, and Mr. B. Bathurst. We are glad to see it confirmed (as we intimated yesterday), that another Meeting is proposed to be called in the city of London to petition and re monstrate against the illegal and unconstitutional ten dency of the Bill of Pains and Penalties introduced into the House of Lords. The nature and object of this Bill are obviously of the most objectionable and cruel kind ; but the doctrines and means by which it is supported are still more revolting to every feeling of justice and propriety—to every notion of right we have been led to entertain. The conduct of Ministers towards the Qcsex, and the arguments adduced by the promoters of the disgraceful and degrading Bill, are at war with the established laws of the land, and it will be in vain that precedents will be sought for to justify this cruel innovation upon the clear and in disputable safeguards of society and individual chime ter. Nay, though fifty instances of equally exclusive conduct on the part of persons charged to administer justice should be adduced—where we are persuaded no An object of no small consideration, is a certain quarter, is now, we hear, in agitation--4 change in the costume of the Band of Gentlemen Pensioners. Their appearance is designed to be wonderfully striking. The clothes, it is said, are to be of rich crimson vel vet, with blue puffs, the stockings of red silk, and the bat of a Spanish form, ornamented with a Prince's plume. In some such garb as this, it is understood, a certain personage was much admired, some years ago, at a masquerade, at the Union Club Rooms, when the taste of Mr. John Keinhle was said to hare been consulted in the personal decorations; and it is there fore now determined to revive and extend the admira tion. It would, notwithstanding, have cost no little 'time and trouble to have decided upon the hue of the stockings, but for the adoption of an idea, which was i ingeniously suggested, of dressing a Oentlemen Pen stoner with two stockings of different colours. After hesitating a between tbo sod and the blue, the was defilierately preferred. The costume of the Pages of die presence was arranged about two years ago. Their suits, we think, are of purple velvet.l All the distinctive dresses of the different grades in the household, from the lowest to the highest, we be lieve, are now satisfactorily settled ; and in this state they are likely to continue, till, according to traiforut Ar6ll, they undergo an alteration. In addition to the Counsel whose names have been already mentioned, her Majesty will have the advice and assistance of Dr. Luahington. Her Majesty now goes regularly awry evening to her Villa, at Barnes, to inspect the preparations which are carrying on there for her reception : and the con course of people assembled in Portman-street, to await her return, increases every evening. On Tuesday night the crowd was so great, it was with mach difficulty the carriage could be driven up to the door, and even when it was there, several minutes elapsed before her Majesty could alight. The crowd, for the most part, consisted of respectably dressed persons, the majority, perhaps, females; and among them many carriages and horsemen. Her Ma jesty was received with loud cheers from every part of the assembly, accompanied by the most enthusiastic gestures from those persons more immediately about her carriage. Alderman Wood arrived at the house during her Ma jesty's absence, and awaited her return, which was not till between nine and ten o'clock. It is understood that his Majesty intends visiting Brighton in the course of a day or two, and remaining there some weeks. The review of the Light-Horse Volunteers, by his Royal Highness the Commander in Chief, no Saturday the 29th inst. is to be at Wormwood Strube, at eleven o'clock. It was by mistake that the name of Sir James Mach- intosb is mentioned in our Report of the Debate on the case of Sir Manasseh Lopes. Sir James took no part in that discussion. On the 6th instant, Andrew Alexander, A.M. Profs,- SW of Moral Philosop in King's College, Aberdeen, ' was unanimously elect ed to fill the Cheek chair, in the United College of St. Andrew's, vacant by the death of the late Professor Hill.

His lordship was aged re, having been nearly 40 years Bishop of that diocese. such barefaced outrage on decorum and established rule will be found—though numberless examples of arbitrary power should be cited from the ages of des potism to give the colour of sanction to such proceed ings, we shall maintain that no act of cruelty or injustice should be allowed to justify or uphold another; and that the universal voice of the empire should be raised to condemn the mode of procedure about to be adopted, and established as a precedent in our Lee islathe and JadieissiCositr.

If the Quitru be believed to be guilty, where is the danger of allow ing her to have a fair trial? If the nation be to be called upon to fix a brand on her MAJESTY, why are the people not permitted to see and investigate on what grounds the verdict of their disapprobation is to be pronounced ? Why do not the degraders of the Qcsam spurn at secret imputations, and every ap pearance of art and intrigue ? Why dare they not show their witnesses and their testimony? Why is it that they cannot say, " See, this is the indubitable testimony on which we have founded our judgment ; this is the guilt of your QCSKS ; and judge ye also of the justice awarded to snch offences ?" Dare they thus boldly to come forward from their Secret Committees and arraign the conduct of her MA- Jairry ?—No! the prosecutors and calumniators of her MAJUTT refuse this satisfaction—they will not even give a list of the witnesses who depose against the illustrious object of their dislike.
