We may see that the wisdom of tire Monarch has priivided for his children. We are assured that there will be a grand stnotr this day at Versailles, where some persons of'tbc highest distiortion will be present. This . .b:ittquet is given on the occasion of St. Charles, patrau of his Royal Highness Monsieur.

The King was re . ceil.ed at the great entrance by M. the Abbe Ro man, and M. Jalabeit, at the head of the Clergy. The crowd in waiting to behold the ceremony oda% inintense, an.l the price for a good place was slot lees than tight or tuts Ganes, The proces•ciast was niagiii6cent, and worthy of the occasion. The streets were linea r tvith troops Gaarti Royal, the, troops of the lute, the. Nat ianal Guard.

Ail the white gr-ipes have beets frozen, anti there aae. ao few rcii, tE Est proprieto is vviq Le obligc4 to The Paris I'apers of Monday are chiefly filled with accounts of the religious ceremony precrd• itig the opening of the Chambers. As the• Se ssion would not commence till the afternoon of Monday, and the lournals are published in the m , rrning,,we have no intelligence of that event. We contemplate the opening lof thc, Ports for the importation 'of Grain on Friday next, with great satisfaction. Lxi , ting high prices, at the very end of Harvest, show how little mercy we have to expect from Hoffie Monopoly. A•Aforning raper of exceeding morality is very angry with Mini,ters for mint availing thentselyes of this era of financial repletion, to reduce the Reve nue by the abolition of State Lotterivi. It ridi cules the arguments of our Correspondent, " 4wli alleranz partein s — in defence of this ItiCallS of raisin g willing money front a country where there is a good deal of difficulty in pruAauring the neces. sary supplies by direct taxation. z lt pays no regard to the antiquity of the Lottery Sy o t , to t prevalerwe of similar practicr.rs in ititito3t eve, y Government (not arbitr,,try), anc•icut or 40dero, our t tlrt extent of Cis:, prod:xe to tte pubile coffers, not ouly in the original price, but in ad vertisement duties, &c. throughout the pro gress of the drawing. It has one . sweepirtg answer to every consideration of expediency, benefit, and usefulness ; namely, that Lotteries are immot al and encourage immorality. The proof of these assertions is, to say the—least of it, as absurd as our Correspondent's reasoning is represented to be. In the first place, a Grocer, somewhere in a snug place for the retail of sugar and tea, positively assured the Writer that he sold less by twenty pounds worth of these articles in.a week daring the drawing of the Lottery, than when there ,was no such, way fur his customers to dispose of their money. Now this proves too much ! Of course not only every other grocer, but every other dealer in the necessaries of life, and still more every dealer in articles of su perfluity, would feel the effects of the Lottery in similar proportion to the Grocer informant of the Morning Paper in question ; and the consequence of admitting the truth of his statement would be, that the depression of trade, by the abstraction of purchase in London alone, during the drawing of the Lottery, could amount to ten times more than ever the whole Lottery cost to the buyers of Tickets. As the Writer is a good calcuhtor, we will thank him to make an estimate on this point, and he will learn to distrust his friend, who may indeed be a Grocer in retail, but certainly for whote sale assertion Grosser still. But Oro, says the Writer, if you won't believe my Grocer, what say yon to the folt9wing " We have heard of a servant girl who dreamt of one of the " lucky numbers" so perseveri❑gly advertised by the " lucky Lottery-offices," and in order " to - make l►er dreamscomc true," re v. sorted first to prostitution, and then to theft." — Pour gill ! aod all this from a Lottery dream.— Substanti I 1 dream ! to proctire such a seducer, whose love, it seems, was oot - of the mercenary kind the dreamer required, for it did not supply the means to purchase. the lucky number and the crime of theft was obliged to be added to the criine of prostitution. Deeply impressed with the value of morality in the humbler classes, why is it that we disregard this instance? Truly, because We consider . it. to' be altogether a dream. it is just one of those sickly, sentimental, nauseous little, trickeries to which the superlative morality of our times delights to resort. It is I.ke the story the 'Other day in the same Paper, of a ►aan • travelling six hundred Miles to look for Work, living all the %iliac (in England too!) on r,k w turnips, till at last he sunk under fatigue and starvation. Why, persans who tell these tales must think they arc addressing the most creclu , lous people that ever existed. The lioness en counter with the mail coach .is a probable in cident, and we are convinced' did happen—but that a man could so travel, or a maitl'llid so dream as is here sct dowtt,•.we most peremptorily refuse to credit. Bat another of the evils from the Pandora's Box, which Mr. Bisu has just obtained permission to open, is, that Bankrupts are often found to have thrown away considerable sums in Lottery Tickets. 'This, to a certain extent, may be true. Persons who become Bankrupts may have bought Shares in, or Lottery Tickets. But will , any one be persuaded that, such experiments were ever matte by men in that rank of life which permits of . their beerithing sidiject 16 the Bankrtipt Laws; in as .materially to injure their property ?- No ! a de clining tradeiman may devote a small sum to put himself' in hick's way, tint-, we ate well aware that where Lottery Tickets have appeared An Batikrnet Schedules of . : expenditure it is suf cie4.:UndastoOd that they are mere blinds to. hide fr,oiduleiit concealment, or less de fensiblc soim:es of ex'pence. It is ~known fact, that old Lottery Tickets arc to he purchased from Jews for a few Shillings, to colour these villainous transactions. Thus, then, do we deny the validity of the grounds can which the Morning Joni nal so - bittCrly condemns Lotteries, and the railing against them which it bottoms on these statements. h asks, '' What is, what ran be meant in a Ch r i st i an country by " the fate and destiny of chance i'se Tlire is over human nature a watchful superin tending ,ProOdenee but men are too sia to shut their eyes to this truth, and, by a voluntary Atheism, to commit their interests, and those of all that are dear to them, to the guidance of what is foolishly called luck?' Was there ever such puling as this ?---Why the whole jet of the Writer's own argument against the Lottery i 7, that the chance of obtain ing a prize is not a fair one, tor the tickets are only worth 101. but A re sold at 231. But would he not laugh to scorn any one who told him he was an athekt, for maintaining this doctrine, since there was a " AVatchful superintending Pro- Aidence" vebielt left nothing to chance in this world. We %tilt not attcwnt to i,ty bow be woula lash such drivelling. It is possible that we may agoin revert to this topic. In the mean time, we venture ,to protest generally against the prevalent morality of the atty. It, is not genuine, but a counterfeit ; and every pseudo reformist has something to woo• mend to improve the morals, forsooth, of the min' err. The Society for the Suppression Of Vice, has generate al universal passion : but too much is aimed at the amusements and recreations of the lower orders. We arc not Latitudinarian s, a% our opinions , daily put on public record sufl' ciently testily. But we confess we are disgus t " ed with the methodistieal cant, and mock phi! lanthropy, and worldly morality, which now meets us at every turn in life. There is an excess and Quixotism now abroad in this respect. 11 ° Lotteries, no drams for the poor, (U) ,Stirldsl walls, no sailings up the River, no ballad singing in the streets, no fairs, no dancing'; nothing but sad decorum and gloomy apathy. Gad preserve us and the People front this forlorn state.

Such he the condi"' don of Galley Slaves ; and may We ever see British men, and women too, front the highot is station to the lowest, participating to the 0- 0 1 their capacity in all the innocent amusetneots which lighten the caresof life, nay, even indtk" ing in occasional exceises, rather than be cabianol• cribbed, confined within the dreary preciocis 01 this false , morality I, .!--......in0w.--.

SPEECH or TI I E DUKE DEL P.III.QUE. " This day, on which the Grandees of Spain have the hOuottr to be presided by your Royal Highness* as the representative of your august nephew, the King; our master, is beyond doubt the Most happy one this body has beheld since its creation up to the present moment, as well he cause the presence of your Royal Highness, in the name of his Majesty, is deserving of the highest consideration and all our gratitotte, as that the honour the King confers npon us proves that his Majesty is well persuaded that his first and greatest interests are inti mately connected with those of the Grandees. In fact the Monarchy, such as that under which we have the happiness to live, forming a political hotly of which the King is the head, and thenobi lit y and,pcople . the members, the Grandees by their more immediate access to the person ()Ibis Majes ty ate favourably placed on an intermediary front whence they are abi e and ought to employ HIl their 'efforts to support , the throne, and at the sante time to watch over the interests of the-p eo .. ple, by which memo that happy equilibrium is attsioecl which must necessarily protiuce , the sta bility and riches of the state. " The benefits his Majesty promises to the pre sent and (snore generations will render public gratitude eternal ; the constant cares and gene:- rous labours of his Majesty will place the -MO ! narehy on the rank which belongs to it among the tither - nations ol'Europe, and loaded with the be tteditiotts of the Spanish people, his name will, be proclaimed with that sincere enthusiasm springing from the effusion of hearts and these tender sic ciatuation.i.repeated by our children. " The Grandee, Of Spain will hasten to set the example, 'and will never cease offering to his Ma jesty the respectful homage of their gratitude tor the singular favours they pare received, 7 he sen tintents of love and fidelity towards their Kings and country have always distinguished them. It suffices to glance at our history to be convinced . of this fact. But why recur so distant times? Have not all persons now living been witnesses of the testimonies we have given ?" , (Here the Mice recalls the' services of the Grandees in the late invasion of the Vrencb, the persecutions they experienced ; the death of Count Maceda at the battle of Rioceco ; that of the Marquis de la Mmma, the Duke of Albuquerque,. &e. and then proceeds to stAte that the Grandees have collected among themselves the sum of 300,000 dollars for the oald;0 THE SUN.
