A wings: the inquiries of condolence yesterday to lilt i'at ' INCE ItEuCIIIT tor Use Merit his beloved Mu. ther, were, the Spanish Avabaseader. sad • number of Noblemen, tithes, and Geotlemen, and per. menages of distinction. Inquiries of si similar nature were also mace after the Duchess of Gcaucsavra and the Princess AUOVITA, at the Queen's Palace, and also at the Duke of CAIIIIIRIDGeII Roux, ou Kew.green, where tithe Royal Highnesses removed on Wednes. day night, from Kew Palace, and they are expected to remain there for some time. The eastern given to the kind inquirers were—i. Their Royal High nesses were es well as could be expected." The Queen's Palace was closed on Wedneaday and yesterday, by FRANCS and BANTUS°, by order of Colonel STEPSUINSON; every window that hod not shutters has been closed with thick canvass. Last night, about half-past eight o'clock, a hearse and four arrived at Kew Palace, followed by a mourning coach and foie, in which were Mr. BANT US°, Ilse Royal Undertaker, and his assiatents, who proceeded to take out of the hearse the irides' 440 f• flu. in which the remains of her late Maitsr, are to be deposited. It is lined with wood. The in.- side, consisting or it bed, itjtlon, sheet, and side lin ing.. were of the richest plain white satin, with • fall fluted trimming all -round, of the same, the whole being solemnly and Magnificently fitted tip. The mot profound silence prevailed at the entrance and in the Palace during the lime the emblem of death was conveyed in fur the reception of the remains of the beloved QueEit. Among the numerous charities to which her Majesty subscribed, noise was more tonal:n(10M (though not generally known) thou the Institlitine funned at liailbrook Lodge, contiguous to Bath. The Queen war the immediate patroness of this establishment, and contribisterl largely towards its support. The innitation at Bililbrook House is formed after the 4r;errairt 1 hapitres, end other Pro testant rrtililibluneuta on the Continent. It offers • desirable reoidence to Ladies of respectable chit. ratter, whose birth placesthem in the rank of Gen tlewomen, and the pion is so arranged as to suit the circumstances of those whose income is very mode. rate; at the same time it offers accommodation to others, who, by residing iu the establishment, con tribute largely towards its support; but this cir. curnstance Isocasious no appa►ent inequality among the inmates, for•all are, in fact, equally independent of pecuniary obligation, either to the pablic or to each other. The society Five together as one fa mily ; but none are admitted who are averse to a retired life, or who are unwilling 'to lend their aid in promoting works of charity and benevolence. It is principally intended 'for 'the reception of the widows and daughters or c lergyaien. and of Officers in the Army 'end .Navy. It is entirely vender the auspices df Lathes of the bighead rank, and a fund of several thousands has been already secured and placed out at interest. It has also the patronage of the Lord Bishops of Durham, St. David's, and of Meath, and the Earl of Sheffield. Her Majesty, tawniest at Bath, paid •great attention to the above institution, and minutely inspected every part of Seabrook House. It has, we understand, been determined by Mi nistry. that Parliament shall be convened on 'Chun day, the 14th .1 January. The Act of the last Session for amending the Regency Act prescribes, that, in case of the demise of the QUEEN, Parlia ment shall assemble widths sixty days from that event, for the purpose Of having a fit and proper person appointed to whom time care of the KING shall be intrusted. The Great Council of the Nation might, however, by a pre-existent Statute, he sumcnoc►ed by the Sovereign at a notice of fourteen day., under any eantrgency ; it iss there. fore, a inviter of surprise that the Meeting of Par. humeri' should, under the present circumstances, be delayed so long, particularly as in ordinary cases it was accustomed to take place at an earlier period. It is very generally imagined that his Royal Highness the Duke of Yung will be proposed by the Ministers to Parliament no the guardian of his afflicted Parent'. aucred person; and with such en appointment, considering all the circumstances of the case, acid the &tilt of The Royal Family, we cannot believe that any one in the country will he inclinedlo quarrel. If the principles that influence private eases were to be applied to that of the KING, perhaps, in ►trictuees of liw, some ob jection might be found to time nomination of his Royal Highness; but where the character of un in. dividual demands the n►u•t unreserved confidence, few will be inclined to start difileulties, and still fewer be found to entertain them. A similar fate would probably befal those other objections that might he raised, from the circumstance of the Duke of You's official situation. Time, how. ever, has heen, when the possession or the KING's person, and the complete command and affection or • standing army, might have been regarded with doubt and apprehension. The next point for the consideration of Parlia ment will be that of the establishment suited to the Klta's uulnippy situation. Of this we spoke at large in our last number. Itetretichinent in the Windsor establishment will, im some degree, though indirectly, diminish the ministerial patron age, and will, therefore, be strenuously represented ass diminution of the Royal splendour; und we may even expect, r hen driven to their last resource, Mat bliamplers will •r t pue upon the necessity 161 i•ou tinuing this unnecess•y expenditure as ■ ►ecom prnce to the Illustrious Duke for hi• increased anxiety and trouble. nut the country should not he required to ;ay • son for fulfilling ■ duty of nature, nor would his Royal Highness feel much indebted to the man who could insinuate so gross • doubt of his filial piety. The revision of the KING'S establishment will almost of necessity involve a consideration of the arrangements respecting the Royal Dukes. The +quite of the QUEEN, with retrenchments at Windsor. will throw into the public fund • very considevable annual sum. probably exceeding 100,0001. The embarrassments of some members of the Royal Family are too notorious to he now specifically noticed. ■nd the consequence of them is their tKnporary absence from this country. It does not become our national character that the sons of our Monarch should he driven by their tie. cessities to an involuntary exile; and yet it is evi dent that this must inevitably happen, if we com pare their my limited allowances with the wants that beset thei► elevated tank in society. The members of uur Royal Family appesr in public less conspicuously, in point of equipage end splendour, than many of our substantial citizen*; but no greater proof can be required of their very uncomfortable situation at home. than the distressing fact, that one of them has been in. debted to the munificence of a foreign Prince, the ►eiative of his illustrious Consort; for the means of upholding Iris rank in the capital of Great Britain! This eircuminsiice transpired in the debate nu this subject in the Molise nr Commons during the last Session. These topics will of necessity he among the very first to occupy the attention of Parliament iu the approaching Session. Vt'e have received Paris Papers o♦ * S•nd•y and Mondry last. Privetle letters have also arrived from Paris and Aix-hi-Chapelle. Some further changes of territories are tuid to have been de finitively stringed betrreeb the Kirigs of Pau4at* and the Nexnede.sobs, With which we should not he disposed to find fault, *ere it not that they involved the pernicious principle of considering the eever•l people of Europe, as the personal property of their rulers, and altogether uninterested in the territorial arrangements that might chance to please their respective Goverment.. it matters not with whit feelings of attachment the people might have hound themselves to the form of government un der which their fathers had cultivated their fields in security and happiness, or with what detestation they might regard the Power to whom they are shout to he trierraierred. the private interest of their Kings or Ministers renders their regrets or wishes unavail ing, and 'they must either submit themselves and swear allegiance to • government they detest, or surrender the patrimony which might be their only means or existence. The territory of Prussia will, according to the new arrangement, be extended to the Meuse, whereby that power will come more im mediately in contact with France; while the Nether lands will he indemnified by all Luxembourg, and the Duchy of Cleve+, with the exception of the fort ress of Gueldres. A private letter from Paris says, that the Duke of , ANGOULEMS had resolved to make a ►ep►esentation to the King of PRUSSIA. on the tardy manner in which the frontier of the Meuse was evacuated by the Prussian contingent ; but according to the new arrangements, thin con tingent can reach its own territories long before the expiration of the lime originally appointed for the evacuation of France. The intelligence re cently received it. Paris from Aix-la-Chapelle, by the hands of M. de CARASAN, is said to relate to the admission of France into the general Al liance. The late pecuniary embarrassments will, it is feared, be the cause of many bankruptcies in the French capital.
