We have received the Paris Journals of Friday everting. They are almost entirely barren of im portant intelligence. The Quotidienne alone Contains letters from Lisbon, which state that the rebellious but pardoned INFANT had set off for England, and that the QUEEN had retired, or tram sent, to the Convent of Estrella. The Pa triarch was also banished to Busaco, and the KING was expected to land and re-enter I lls capital on the 13th ult.—The Chamber of Peers of France had opened the discus sion on the Project of Law for reducing the interest of the National Debt.

It seems, however, that he has been rendered incap `l):e of doing any injury to the Government, the troops which be left at Napoli di Romania, under the command of his son, having abandoned him, and the Central Government having e stablished its residence in that town on the 23d of April."

DEMERARA—MILITIA CALLED OUT. At a late hour this forenoon, we were favoured with the perusal of letters from Demerara , to the 15th ult. I;t rou g h t by the Britannia to Liverpool. T hese, we regret to inform us, that the Militia had been again called out, in i' a Tsequence of reports of another projecte d revolt intended to Ca place on the Easter Holidays. On e Ne g ro had been ra ught in from the west coast , who had been found with some , 2 4 squets and bullets, but, upon investigation, it was ascertain bs' that these had been given him by his master to shoot deer. tom the east coast the alarm was more serious-.

KING and QUEEN of the SANDWICH ISLANDS. FURTHER PARTICULARS.—A Grand Entertainment vas on Friday given to these interesting foreigners by Mr. Secre tary CANNING at Gloucester Lodge. Upwards of two hun dred persons of the first rank and fashion .were, invited to meet them, among whom were their Royal Highnesses the Duke and Duchess of Gloucester, Prince Leopold, the Duke of Wel lington, Lord and Lady Stafford, Lord Clarendon, Count and Countess Lieven, the Ladies Bathurst, Mr. and Mrs. Falck (the Netherlands' Ambassador), several of the Cabinet Mini sters, and nearly the whole of the Corps Diplomatique.—The King and Queen arrived about eleven o'clock, accompanied by their Prime Minister, Poki and his wife, and the rest of his suite. His Majesty was dressed after the Europen fashion ; the Queen's attire was partly English and partly in native costume. The Treasurer alone was dressed in the full costume of his country, with a large staff, &c. They were attended by the Hon. Mr. Byng, who is appointed to at tend them while they remain in this country. Upon their arrival they were received by 'Mr. Secretary Canning, who in troduced them to their Royal Highnesses the Duke anti Duchess of Gloucester, Prince Leopold, &c. The band of the Life- Guards were stationed in the garden, and continued playing during the whole time. The company walked in the grounds attached to Gloucester-lodge, and their Majesties seemed much delighted with the music. When they returned into the re fresement room, they drank the health of the company. The rooms were all thrown open. At half-past twelve they took their leave, and the company then separated. Their Majesties evinced much satisfaction at their reception, and with every thing that took place. ARGYLL Rooms.—These Rooms were opened on Saturday last for a morning Concert, to display the im provement of the pupils belonging to THE RoYAt. ACADEMY OF Music. It is but justice to most of these pupils to state they display merits which reflect credit on their several Instructors, and on themselves, for the exertions which they must have made for th e attainment ofprofessienal skill, butour original objections to this Institution remain the same. HisIIIAJESTY, with his usual munificence, has liberally patronised it, and permitted it to use the Royal sanction, but the consequences, we fear, will be injurious to the pupils themselves. The musical market is already overstocked with professors, who are hardly able to support themselves ; and when these pupils are thrown upon the public, there will be a glut. The established professors will then be forced to occupy all the gound, and the disap pointed pupils in general be obliged to resort to ther modes for subsistence. WORCESTERSIIIRE SOCIETY.—The ninth anni versary dinner of this Institution took place on Saturday, at the Albion Tavern. The company was select, but not numerous, consisting of Sir CHARLES COCKERELL, Bart., M.P. in the Chair; the Earl of Beauchamp, Lord Deerhurst, 111:P , the Lion. Colonel Lygon, M.P., the Hon. and Rev. Thomas Co ventry, J. Martin, Esq. Wm. Maddocks, Esq. M.P., Wm. Oidnall Russell, Esq., Patrick Ryan, Esq., and about fifty other Gentlemen of respectability. After several intro ductory toasts were drank, the boys who have become the ob jects of the Institution's bounty, about five and twenty in num ber, were introduced, and walked round the room ; upon which the Chairman gave " Success to this Society," and the Secre tary, William Grane, Esq., read the Committee's report. The object of the charity is to raise a fund, by donations and annual subscriptions, for apprenticing children of necessitous persons, natives of the county of Worcester, and afterwards for assisting them in beginning business ; and the report stated that they were steadily advancing towards the accomplishment of this most laudable and useful object, the Earl of Coventry having accepted the office of Patron, and the Earl of Beauchamp, Lord Viscount Dudley and Ward, the Dean of Worcester and other individuals of influence in the county, having been added to the list of its members. The Society had also begun to invest part of its funds, by purchasing 1001. 3 per cent, Consols, to meet contingencies. But the applications for its assistance were becoming extremely numerous ; no less than eleven peti tions having been presented for this anniversary. POETRY. On the recent Anonymous Ribaldry against Mrs. COUT TS. Why is fair CoUTTS of vulgar spleen the mark, And venom'd arrows issu'd from the dark ? Because she's rich, and they who less enjoy, 'With wanton envy would her peace destroy Because, to silence disappointed gall, Her stores, though large, will not extend to all. Despise such vile assaults, benignant Dame, The Needy bless, the Good revere, thy Name. SONG. " She is gone! but the last parting beam of her eye Still trembles on Memory's sight ; And the love-scented fragrance, that breath'd from her sigh, Yet hangs round this spOt with delight. ller voice still I hear—in the 'sighs of the breeze, ller step—in the fall of the dew; And the lays of the warblers, at eve, in the trees, Seem to whisper her parting adieu ! " The spot shall be sacred, for Love cannot find Another so cherish'd as this : The spirit of Mary here lingers behind, And charms every thought into bliss. As the fond bird will hover around her sad nest, When 'tis robb'd of its last cherish'd dove, So roams every wish of the sensitive breast Round the scenes of its earliest love." HARRY STOE VANDYK.

WALK, TROT, AND GALLOP MATCH. Another match took place on Saturday at Woofiley End, Essex. Capt. SWAIN undertook to perform it in forty-eight minutes, to walk his celebrated roan horse three miles, trot three, and gallop three, over three miles of ground. The horse walked each mile under ten minutes, and was twenty-nine minutes ten seconds altogether. The three miles were trotted in eleven minutes and fifty seconds, and the gallop occupied six minutes and t 0 seconds, making a close win of ten seconds, PEDESTRIANISM. The grand race twice round Doncaster Race Course took place on Thursday. Adams took and kept the lead the first round until they had passed the grand stand, when Haltrm, who had driven him at a bursting rate, showed his superiority, giving a go by ; the lead was retaken by Ashton, but could not be maintained, and from the Leger turn to the foot of the Hill, Halton gradually gained a-head. Ashton looked at the hill, and then at his opponent, who was manfully striding it, but it would not do, and he made a full stop. Halton kept going, and came in merrily. First round, 9 min. l 6 sec.; twice round, 19 min. 14i sec. The last mile was done 4 min. 52 sec. Betting at starting 6 to 4 on Halton. BOXERS.

SADLER FROM LIVERPOOL [From the Chester Chronicle of Friday 1, time of Mr.SAtme it ' s ascent f rom Liverpool being announced in the papers of that town to take place at half past two o'clock this day, our city walls, from the Phoenix-tower, round to the Water-tower, were crowded with anxious specta tors, as were the tower of St. John's church, and almost every point likely to catch a view of the aeronauts. A few minutes after four o'clock, the impatience of the mul titude was allayed, by the appearance of the balloon apparently just above the horizon, in a direction a little east by north of this city, and apparently about eight or ten miles distant. The travellers continued in view above an hour and a half, certainly a more sublime scene has seldom been witnessed. About a quarter past five o'clock the balloon appeared to be on P o u f t t h fi e woods about Hoole and five all view of it from this interventionalf'.rth mail brought us informa eTt tr e ya gradual f arsa.lostbh ye descent, arrival the thhe no tion that the descent took place in some meadows beyond Bridge Trafford, about four miles from this city.

Quarter ante Nine, prn•—Mr. Sadler and Lieutenant Peel have just passed through this city from the Albion Hotel, in a chaise-and-four, on their way to Liverpool, amidst the cheers of some thousands assembled. Mr. Sadler informs us the ascent from Liverpool was superb : when over Ilooton-house, the seat of Sir Thomas Stanley, they dropped a note. Their approach altogether was in a direct line for Chester, but when near Mos. ton, a new current of wind took place, which hurried them in an easterly direction. The greatest altitude they attained was about a mile. Some of the Papers have stated that lklihS STOCKS has arrived in London so far recovered, and so well pleased with her expedition, that she has expressed a wish to ascend with Mr. GRAHAM on Wednesday next.

Mr. COOPER. moved the Court for a Mandamus to the Corporation of the City of London, for refusing to grant a licence to sell beer to a per son named Symonds, who succeeded Spring, the landlord of Joe's coffee-house, in Mitre-court, Fleet-street, Spring having been licensed, and before the expiration of the licence having quit ted the premises. If their Lordships refused to grant the Mandamus, perhaps they would grant the Rule Nisi, calling on the City Justices to consider the grounds of Symonds's application, with reference to the Act of Parliament for licensing Victualling-houses. The LORI) CHIEF Jusucc thought the act was not compulsory on the Justices to grant a licence to any person succeeding the licenced victualler previous to the expiration of his licence, he hav ing kit the house. If, therefore, the Court granted the rule to show cause, and it should be discharged, it would be with costs. Mr. Coorr.a. said, he wished the Court to grant the rule, making the costs discretionary in Lb• Court, upon cause being shewn.—Rule Nisi granted_ Mr. Cimpnta.r, said, he had to move their Lordships for a criminal information against ait Attorney of the county of Stafford.

REFUSAL. TO RECOGNIZE TILE REPUBLIC OF COLOMBIA. 7'IIO3IPSON BY Rm. Mr. PErYs moved for a special injunction in this case on the following facts :—The plaintiff* borrowed 5,0001. of the defer), dant, and deposited with hint debentures to the amount of 80,0001. as a security for the payment. These debentures wire issued by the Republic of Colombia. He subsequently offer ed to pay the sum to the plaintiff, and demanded the deben tures. This was not acceded to ; he apprehended thatstite de fendant would dispose of the debentures to other persons ; he therefore prayed tier an injunction to restrain the defendant from parting with these documents. The Loup CHANCELLoR had no objection to grant thcmo lion generally, on the merits, but would hear nothing of the Republic of Colombia. Ills Lordship was aware that it had been decided otherwise in another place; but sitting there in once of his Majesty's Courts of Justice,' he could not recognize the existence of any republic or other foreign domination, which has not been acknowledged by his Majesty's Government. 31r. Parrs would have those words omitted, The deben tures might be simply designated as those signed by Joseph Rio De Castella ; that Gentleman had executed them on the part of the State.
