The Chamberlain, Baron Tiorstein, Commissioner of the Court to the Em bassy, who conducted Prince Schwartzenburg to the King's apartment, for the ceremony of the preceding day, accompanied him yesterday also to the Palace, where the initial act of renunciation took place, in presence of his Majesty, of the Princess Che s t. Jott er and of the Princess of the Royal family. Prince Schwarteenburg had also an audience yesterday of the Prince Royal, in which he I►ad the honour to deliver to his Royal Highness a•let ter from his Majesty the Emperor, requesting the Prince to supply the place of his Imperial Majes ty in the ceremony of the nuptial benediction. VIKNtiA, OCT. 26.—A tart of the noble Ilun gariatt'Guard set out on the 21st for Brannau, whence it will escort the Empress hither. A de tachment of the noble German Guard set out, on the 23d, for the same place. The Emperor will go incognito to St. Polten, which is the last stage where the Princess stops. The Empress will ha're there her first Levee ; a great part of the. Nobility of this Capital are in vited to it. Baussr.t.s,' Nov. 6.:—For two days past a change in the Ministry has been talked of here it is,' however, impossible at present to say how far these reports may be founded i n tru th. A new Literal) , Journal is announced here, an d will very shortly appear, which will.make the number of our periodical publications amount 1-t. In the Sittings of the Chamber of the States- General, the ht u of the Kingdom has been communicated. The expenditure for 1817 is fixed at 73,400,000 francs. That of this year was 82,000,000.

The following has been published as an outNne of the measures intended to be proposed by the • French Iltiti4try " The first Law to he proposed will, it is said, be a Law to form the Chamber of Peers into a Court of Justice; there will afterwards be pre sewed a Law for regulating the Separation of Body, in consequence of the Suppression of Di vorce ; next the Law of Elections ; and last the , Budget.

The Apollo, of Liverpool ; Mary Ann, San. vica, of Glasgow ; Adventure, of Plymouth ; Saucy Jack, of Balbadoes ; and. 22 others, mostly French, were totally lost at, Martinique, during a viole►►t hurt icane, on 16th September. The Aldbroi, SUCITET, from Honduras to Lon. don, was totally lost 28th September, on the Bahama Bank. The William Penn, from Antwerp, Was on shore to the southward of Chariston Lighthouse, and very leaky. French Papers - are again due, but we do not imagine they can possess political interest, as the Chambers would probably be occupied with forms during the first days of the Session. A Flanders Mail reached us this morning . it is now stated from stottgard, that ,the King of kVlitrENtagaG died of a catarrhal fever. The last act of this Monarch, whose character has suf fered alike under the hands of friends and adversaries in the London Newspapers, was to devise means for lowering the price of bread tome. poorer. classes of his capital. This at least was a truly praiseworthy measure on the day pre. ceding bis decease, and might have tiecured bis ashes an asylum in the tomb, before his memory was vilified. But the reputation -of Kings are, it scents, public property- 7 -so is -decency a public viTtue, anti feeling a public ornament.— We confess we cannot applabd that kreedy haste which pounces on the victim which it claims, al most before the spirit has left its mortal tenement. Prince Wt 1.1.1 AM immediately agsumedthe sceptre of his father, and the new. QUeen . (the. Attchess of - OLDE . lgnufw) resented him with a daughr on the same day. The licreditary Prince of OL DElquito is, according to report, about to espouse the Princess Royal of DENMARK. kchapge of Ministry is talked of in the Ne therlands. The Budget of that country estimates the expenditure fur 1817 at 73,400;000 francs, about 9 millions less than the preceding year. Colonial recruiting is said to hove been actively resumed in France. Should the negociations be tween the Cabinet of Versailles and PETION fail, we presume a very considerable force will be sent against St. Domingo. Even should they succeed, the Coalition against CNRISTOPHE will require a vigorous co-operation on the part of France. The Loan MAYOR complains bitterly of Minis ters for not gracing his Puppet-show Cavalcade on Saturday, and hob-nabbing. with Major CART WRIGHT at the ensuing feed. Surely the LORD MAYOR cannot complain of the neglect of the Court, seeing that the very Household Troops of the KING were lent to grace his Cere mony. We were sorry, to say the truth, to see the heroes of Waterloo so degraded as to be made actors in this silly pageant ; and surprized that your Liberty boys who brawled so stoutly against the employment of military around the throne of their Prince, should have thought that species of force necessary for civic pomp and a Lore! Mayor's Chair. As for the procession itself, whickby marching up the Strand enabled us to view its splendours, we literally never saw such gingerbread folly either on or off the stage, saving always Bartholomew Fair. In the whole train there was not a carriage worth five rounds, and it seemed as if all the dung carts of the Metropolis had been called into requi sition to make the ridiculous contemptible. As was provided for, the horses were taken front the Lord Mayor's coach, and a mob of persons, who force one to blush for them as Britons and as Men, dragged the lumbering load and its light tenant, heavily into the City. \Ve were grieved to observe many Foreign faces among the crowd. What a despicable opinion must they have formed of England and Englishmen LORD Wilawoßm. Prom the Dublin Evening Correspondevt, Nor. 7.) The following Bulletin was issued yesterday eveniog:— . " Pat* TPerlnesday Evening, 4a' Clock, p. m. " The Lord Lieutenant has bad a good night, and con tines to itdratire towards recover,y." (Signed, &c.)

Letters of the 18th ult. from Cadiz say, that accounts had been received from- Vera t..ruz, stating, that Admiral APODACA, late Olean-6e oeral of Cuba, and now appointed Viceroy of New Spain, had arrived there on his way to the capital. He had brought with him the 2000 men originally intended as a garrison to the Ha vannah,, but owing to the want of troops in Mexico to reinforce the Royal Army, it had been judged more expedient to send them there. iVe can state, with confidence, that the 28th instant is the day fixed for the arrival of the PRINCE REGENT at the Pavilion , and that her Majesty the QUEEN certainly intends to honour us with a visit the first week in December..--- (Brighteu Heald.) The Royal Family appeared in mourning yes terday for the King of ‘VIRTRMBERG; the male branches with crape round their hats. The prin cipal attendants also appeared in black. Orders, however, were not issued for the Court going into mourning, but they are expected to be pub lished this day for Thursday. Mr. FISHER, King's Messenger, left town on Saturday with dispatches fur Sir CHAS. STEWART, at Paris. The Duke of YORK transacted military busi ness with the PRINCR REGENT on Saturday. Yesteidrty the Loan CHANCELLOR had a long audience of the PaiNce RECENT. The Wirtemberg Minister had an audience of the PRINCE REGENT on Saturday, when, it is supposed, his Excellency communicated to his Royal Highness the death of the King of WIR- T MBERG. On Saturday Colonel PANKRATIMIFF, Aide-tle. Camp to the Emperor of IlusstA, was introduced to the VRINCE 'RIF-owl' at Carlton-house, by the Russian Ambassador. Viscount and Viscountess CASTLERIUGH %last rive in town in the course of next week. Such, according to a Sunday Paper, is the abun. donee of beef and pork in Ireland, that the Viennaling 'Board contracted on Saturday for 13,00 tierces, to be delivered within six months-, at 5( ss. per tierce, Or I/. per cwt. after deducting cooperage and expences. There was a fall of Aunty yesterday evening in London, and for several 'nights we have suffered a severe frost. • The Gazette of Saturday notifies, that the Lords of the Treasury have determined that in future Toys and Citrat of Lime legally brought into the port of London (not being imported by the F:►st India Company), shall be added to the= articles enumerate! in Table E of the Warehonsing Act. On Saturday Lord and Lady Iluaousasu ar rived at their honse, in Upper Seymour-street, from Florence. They came by the way of Paris. Their departure from Italy was in consequence of the death of their infant sow, for whose loss• her Ladyship is inconsolable. 'J'lu remains of the infant are coming by water from Florence, to England in order to be - interred in tile family vault at Epthorp, in Linculashire. lified, and that no arrest shall take place except won a mandate signed by two Ministers. " The Cnneordat•signed by Cardinal Gontillvi and AL BlaCas was sent to the King for his rati fication three weeks ago,- but, it is reported that tha , ratification has been given with some restric tions. It is pretended that this Concordat abo litilles the Concordat, of Bnonaparte, and restores that of Leo X. and Franci s 1. " It is said there will be 92 Archbishops and Bishops. Some of the. present Bishops will not be preserved in the new establishment. " The Budget, it is understood, will create an augmentation of five millions in favour of the Clergy, who will be endowed in annuities upon the State. The Government will also propose to appropriate to the Sinking Fund 150,000 hectaires of ‘Voodi, tO be sold in the, proportion of thirty millions of francs per annum. " It is added that the King will also be atitho rised by a particular disposition to endow in fo rests or domains of the State, the Archbishoprics and Bishoprics to the amount .of the revenue which 'may he allowed them, and which, is to be from 15 to 20,000 francs to the Archbishops, and from 10 to 15,000 francs to the Bishops." A transaction which occupies Much discussion at Paris is the Concordat; or agreement relating to ecclesiastical affairs between the Kingof FRANCE and the Pottr. It is stated to have been concluded by M. de fit.Acas, the French Ambassador at Rome, in virtue of full powers for that purpose ; but not being exactly framed on the principle of what are- termed in revolutionary language " the .new interests," it was sent back for nio dificatitin. The difference is believed to torn on the long agitated question of selling the I.tirled property of the Clergy. The Royaliits wish to prevent any frather revolutionary confis cations of this sort : the Revolutionists desire to see the Clergy dependent on the State for salaries which may ht pleasure be diminished, suspended, or totally withdrawn. The Concordat is understood to have provided, that all the unsold lands of the clergy should he restored: the proposed modification is to restore only a certain part, as a fund for paying the Archbishops and. Bishops . ,- but to confiscate the rest (though confiscation even, for treason is abolished by the Charter), and to render cull the parochial clergy stipendiary If any such a mea sure should be brought before the Legislature, it will encounter a manful resistance from all th os e who, looking to the example of Err:land, are convinced that the establishment of a. proprie tary Clery is equal!) , favourable to civil liberty, and to the stability of the State.
