But few of the families from the country had left, and the town, as on the pre ceding day, presented the most brilliant appearance, almost every individual wearing the Rainbow favor, adopted by Garrick, to shew the versatility of the genius of Shakspeare, and in unison with the line of Dr. Johnson— " Each change ofparty-coloured life he drew." The public breakfast at the White Lion Inn, ad jacent to the birth-place of the great Poet, exceeded the expectation in the number and respectability of the company. The great room was tastily fitted up with evergreens, and the military band played the most favourite Airs, Overtures, &c. • The arrange ments and the refreshments were of the best descrip tion. Nearly all the principal families of the town and its vicinity were present, and at one time there were 250 persons in the room; - it is supposed, how ever, that nearly 100 individuals breakfasted. The dis play ofbeauty and fashion was most interesting. To the breakfast succeeded recitation and song. "Mr.,Bond again spoke the Address, written by Mr. Serle, and recited by him on the previous day at - Shakspeare's birth-place. To this several comic and serious songs were sung, and the assembly did not separate until one o'clock. In the town and its neighbourhood, rustic sports took place, and parties were formed to celebrate the Jubilee in every house, and strangers might be seen moving to the various places conse crated by the memory of Shakspeare. At the dinner last night, many relics of Sbakspeare were exhibited, such as goblets, drinking cuPs, pipes, tkc. - ; - ‘all formed from the famou s mu lb err y-t re e.

By Order, Yesterday a meeting of the holders of Chilian Bonds was held by adjournment at the City of Lon don Tavern. Mr. ROBINSON, M.P. for Worcester, took the Chair. PARlS.—Every person who has any claim to be considered well-informed in France, appears to take as much interest in the triumph of Mr. Canning as the most zealous English patriots can do. The cause of humanity appears at pre sent so intimately united to his, that in the ex isting state of Europe it is impossible for us to separate them. The more ignorant feel this connexion as it were by instinct, but those who know the state of parties on the Continent, readily perceive that the principles of the Holy Alliance and the domination of the clergy form now the real question at issue.

SUPERIOR BEAVER HATS. fHARLES COVINTON begs to exp ress his gratitude to his numerous friends and the public, for the very liberal patronage with which he has been favoured ; and he takes this opportunity of stating, that in eonsequence of the increased demand for his NEW and IMPROVED SHORT-NAPPED BEAVER HATS, be finds it absolutely necessary to remove to more extensive premises, 132, CHEAPSIDE, two doors from Gutter lane, which he has opened with asplendid variety of shapes and fashion, whereby the purchaser cannot fail to find a Hat in every respect suited to his taste. C. C. again calla the attention of his friends, and the public to his IMPROVED SHORT-NAPPED BEAVER HAT ; and he feels confident, that from its great supe riority to every other Hat, it only has to be known, to be generally approved of. It is well adapted to every kind of wear, being perfectly water-proof, and in consequence of a peculiar method of disposing the Nap or Beaver (which is remarkably short and thick), will not be affected by the roughest weather. This Hat is light, and of astonishing durability ; and although elastic, as a good Hat ought to be, retains its shape to the last. * o * Gentlemen's Dress and Li ver y Hats. RUN-AWAY AND KICKING HORSES.-COOK'S PATENT LIFE-PRESERVER. THE objects of the LIFE-PRESERVER are to stop four, a pair, or a single-horse, when run ning away with carriages of every description; this may be done by a lady or a child inside, if the coachman is thrown from his seat—to secure them from starting off in the temporary absence of the driver, an advantage of vital importance in Stage Coaches--and in a gig it has the ad ditional advantage of preventing the horse from kicking. It arrests the progress of the animals in a gradual manner ; it may be applied to any carriage in use, at the Manufactory, 127, Long Acre; and gentlemen who are going to build new carriages may have it applied, in town or country, by their own Coachmakers, for whose guidance printed in structions are prepared. Now that the invention has been perfected and patro nized, and that a respectable body of Coach-builders have undertaken to attach it to new carriages, such persons as feel disposed to purchase the Irish and Scotch Patents of this truly valuable discovery, are requested to call at the Manufactory, where carriages, fitted, may be seen ; or transmit by letter, post paid, the nature of their offer to Lieut. Cook, the Patentee, who cannot give the necessary attention to the invention in those countries which it naturally requires. The Patent for England, which ex tends also to the Colonies, he reserves to himself. and any person wishing to speculate, by sending the Life-Preserver to any part of the East or West Indies, where it is very much wanted, or indeed to any of the Colonies, will have a liberal allowance, to make the speculation well answer their purpose. By referring to the " Morning Post" of the 12th of March ; " The SUN" of the 17th ; and the "New Times" of the 18th of April, 1827, very powerful and gra t u it ous testimony, in favour of this invention, may be seen.

DON PEDRO AND DON MIGUEL.—It is pretty generally believed that the Emperor in tends to make a voyage to Lisbon, in the course of the summer. The Rio Janeiro, a ship of the line, is certainly fitting out at the capital of the Brazils, for a voyage of six months ; and the supposition is, that the Emperor is to proceed in her to this country. The reasoning of the two parties on this intelligence is as different as their wishes. The Apostolical party say— What motive can the Emperor have in coming to Lisbon, or on what grounds can he interfere in the affairs of Portugal ? By a fundamental law of the kingdom, no foreign Prince can exer cise any right of sovereignty here. Don Pedro has abandoned the place of his birth ; he is na turalised in the Brazils ; he has made his choice ; and as by the late compact the two countries are for ever to remain separate, he cannot have any right to dictate to Portugal, much less to exercise Sovereign power within the kingdom. If he has no legal power, consequently he can communicate none to his daughter, and Portu gal must descend to the next of kin (Don Miguel) the second son of the Prince who reigned over both states." The other party argue that Don Pedro is not a foreigner, and has never abandoned his claim to Portugal. They admit that the two states must remain separate, and that each must be governed by its peculiar laws and customs, but still they contend that he may reign over both, or resign one of them to his daughter. If he comes to Portugal, the most beneficial results might be expected. His pre sence and advice would conciliate the minds of many. His well-known decision would deter the rebellious, and many might entertain hopes of seeing tranquillity restored—the two States, perhaps, governed by the same Sovereign, and those ties of amity and relationship renewed, which had existed so long between the two countries. The Emperor has all along acted with great caution as to any abdication of sove reign power in Portugal ; and so far from ad mitting that his brother has any legitimate claims to the Crown, he has distinctly stipulated in the marriage contract that Don Miguel shall not take the title of King till the Princess has borne him a child. She has only completed her eighth year ; and eight years more, at least, must elapse before she or her husband can have any authority in Portugal ; and why should not the Emperor, in the mean time, be allowed to exer cise his undoubted right till that period arrives ? The other party made no objection to his claims from the beginning—in fact, admitted them all along, till a charter was granted ; and with what consistency can they now assert that he has no right to interfere ? The Brazilians might ob ject to him exercising Sovereign power over both countries, but the Portuguese cannot, inasmuch as Portuguese Princes have, at different times, ruled over this country and part of Spain. Such is a short outline of the arguments of both parties. Which are the more conclusive it is difficult to say. Before the business of the day was gone into, a subscription was made to defray the expences. The CHAIRMAN then informed the meeting that he had communicated to Messrs. Hullett, Brothers, the con tractors, and to the Chilian Envoy, the resolutions entered into at the last meeting, requesting their at tendance. He had received three letters, two from the contractors, and one from the Envoy, which he then read. That from the Envoy represented, that in the position in which he then stood, he did not consider himself warranted in attending the meet inc. He expressed his willingness to convey to the Chilian Government any communication which the bondholders might think proper to make. He had received no intelligence to communicate to them, but he hoped shortly to be in possession of good news. The first letter from Messrs. Hullett stated that they considered it best befitted their situation in reference to the loan, and would render their exertions more effective afterwards, if they avoided any interference in the discussions of the bondholders. They never had any direct communication with the Government of Chili, but only with their Envoy for the time being. They had, through that me dium, on every occasion, endeavoured to impress upon the Government the necessity of providing funds to make the payments of the dividends punc tually. There were now no funds whatever in their possession applicable to the payment of the divi dends. They had, before they entered into the loan, made inquiries into the financial capabilities of Chili to complete the contract, and all their subse quent inquiries had confirmed their first information that the means were most ample. They were ready to second all the efforts of the bondholders. The second letter from the contractors enclosed a docu ment, transmitted to them by the Envoy, which he stated be believed to be authentic, certifying that certain branches of the public revenue had, on the 7th of October last, been placed in the hands of Commissioners, the produce to be appropriated ex clusively to the discharge of the Government en gagemert upon the loan. The CHAIRMAN read the prospectus on which the loan was made, and commented on the breach of faith which had been committed by the Chilian Go vernment. He declared his conviction that it pos sessed the means, if it possessed the inclination or the ability to make use of them, for the full dis charge of its financial engagements. He was will ing to consider that the conduct of the contractors was candid, and that the attendance of the Chilian Envoy could not be fairly expected. Mr. YOUNG was by no means desirous of casting any imputations on the contractors, but he consi dered that they were bound to attend, and act with the shareholders for their protection. Mr. HAMMOND, the solicitor, proposed a series of resolutions, as expressive of the opinion of the meet ing on the breach of faith which had been commit ted by the Chilian Government. A long discussion arose on the terms of these resolutions, in which Mr. Wm. Clark, Mr. Young, the banker, and Mr. Easthope, the member for St. Alban's, took the most prominent parts. It was ultimately agreed, that the terms of the contract entered into by the Chilian Government should be recited, in the reso lutions, from the bonds; that these resolutions, which further called upon that Government to repair the breach of faith, should be forthwith transmitted to Chili, through the medium of the Envoy ; and that they should be transmitted to his Majesty's Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, and the in terference of Government on b e h a lf o f the bond holders requested. Considerable doubts were ex pressed, whether, after the caution which was some years ago given by the Government against such loans to the rising states of South America, such interference for their protection ought to be expected. The CHAIRMAN contended, that as Mr. Canning had prided himself on the recognition of the new Anietscan States, the means 'by which that inde pendence had been achieved, namely, the money of those present, (hear, hear l) must be considered as legally expended, and their rights deserying all the protection which the Government could give.— (Cheers.) It was resolved that the resolutions should be transmitted to the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs by the Chairman, and his serious attention to them requested. A committee was formed to watch the interests of the shareholders. Thanks were voted to Mr. Hammond and to the Chairman, when the meeting separated. BANK NOTES.

It was enacted by the Long Parliament, that every person should .retrench one meal a week, and pay the money thereby saved into th e public treasury. This whimsical tax produced 608,4001. in six years, during which it continued. The following," says a New York paper, ,4 i s a brief statement- of the present system of our trade with the British. colonies in, America Our ports are closed against British vessels coming' from British . Colonial ports closed against us, even if they have touched at ports not closed against us. Bdndi are to be required from British vessels receiving American goods, that they shall' not be delivered in such ports. These requisitions .are to be complied with un der pain of confiscation. These are the enact ments of the first-mentioned act, concerning navigation.' The Supplementary Act, dated May 15 , 1820, clos e s our ports against British vessels from the ports of Lower Canada, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Newfoundland, St. John's, Cape Breton, Bermuda, the Baham as , the island s of Caicos, or the dependencies of any of them ; and from all British places south of the southern boundary of the United States, not in cluded in the original Act, under penalty of for feiture. Bonds are also required of British vessels receiving our articles, that they shall not be landed in any place mentioned in either of the Acts, under the like penalty. There is one prohibition in this Supplementary Act, which must prevent, in a great degree, the trade we might otherwise expect to see open, under this system,. between our ports and those of Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, &c. Even our own vessels are prohibited to bring back other articles than those of the growth; produce, or manufac ture of the places from which they come s under penalty of forfeiture." The priest-ridden party, which rules in France, Spain, Italy, and part of Germany, wishes t 9 instigate war against Portugal. It conceives that its power in Spain, and consequently all the other States of the Continent, will be compro mised, if the Portuguese Constitution be not overthrown. All its efforts are directed to this object. This party may pause for a few mo ments in its course, it may even make., a few ap parent concessions, but you may be assured that it will only do so with the view of recovering its strength, or procuring new resources. Should Mr. Canning only obtain half a triumph, the faction in power on the continent of Europe will go on in its present course, persuaded th a t it w ill find auxiliaries in the English Ministry, and that in the alternative of war, or of giving up Portu a b al to the influence of priests,lth e party for the latter will prevail in your councils. There is no person of the least sagacity here, who does not perceive that the influence exerted in Spain for keeping up the system established in that country has for its great object re-action on France. Should the same influence extend to Portugal, we shall be exposed to an invasion of barbarism, which it will be impossible to stop by any other means than insurrection. It is not merely against the Constitution of Portugal that the clerical faction works; it equally dislikes the independence of Spanish America and the independence of Greece. 'Wherever it perceives anything like rising liberty, it considers it an evil example necessary to be put down. lf, therefore, your Government were to yield up the Peninsula to its power, it would still be neces sary to abandon in succession all the other coun ty ies it might feel an interest in attacking. Thus, England will be gradually brought into partner-, ship with the new Holy Alliance, and to adopt ; all its resolutions, or to separate completely from: it. These are the consideration s which produce the strong interest felt among us for the success' of Mr. Canning and his friends. If they triumph, Englnd will be with us, and with almost all the, nations of the continent, considered as the bul wark of knowledge and civilization. If they fail, England will be placed on a level with Austria and Russia. In the former case, she will have on her side, everywhere, the people ; in the second, she will have for her friends the Courts. When your journals brought us the news of Mr. Canning's elevation, so great was the joy manifested, that one would have supposed there never had been either rivalship or war between England and France. NATIONAL FEELING. PARIS, APRIL 21.—This week has been marked by an event which will be memorable amongst us, particularly on account of the cir cumstances by which it was preceded and fol lowed. On the 16th, which was kept as the anniversary of the King's entry into Paris, his: Majesty reviewed a part of the National Guards, and some 'regiments of the line. When he came on the ground where the National Guard! were drawn up, he was received with a dead silence. The populace who were present did' not give a single " Vivat," and not one was un covered, which, amongst us, is considered a mark of impoliteness with respect to the King. After reviewing the National Guard, his Majesty pro ceeded to the Champ de Mars to review the troops of the line. On his way he passed through an immense concourse of people, but not a single cry was raised in his favour. He was received by the troops with the same indifference and the same silence as by the public. This cold recep-, tion appeared to astonish him, and he hastened home, and was so cast down that he was obliged to go to bed. It is said that, on returning to his palace, the Abbe de Montesquiou, who was Mi nister of the Interior in 1824, proceeded to ex plain to him the cause of the silence, and attri buted it to the law project against the press. The King said that he was not in a situation to attend to him at :that moment, but asked him to return next - day. In the evening some public' places were illuminated by order of the police, but not a single private house was illuminated, ,except some belonging to placemen. Next day, the 17th, the King assembled his Ministers, and without giving or asking any explanation, ordered the law project against the press to be imme diately withdrawn. Peyronnet and Villele were about to make some observations, but the King reiterated his order in so peremptory a manner, that it was necessary to obey it forthwith. To complete the disgrace attached to this proceed ing, it fell to the lot of Peyronnet to execute the order. For the first time in his life this Minis ter was wanting in assurance. He presented himself to the Chamber of Peers with a con fused air, and read the Royal Ordonnance in so feeble a voice, that it was scarcely heard. The news having spread in the evening among the printers and booksellers, they all illuminated their houses. Next day the whole transaction became public, and an effect was produced of which it would be difficult to give an idea to any person who did not witness it. Persons even of the lowest class hastened to congratulate each other on the preservation of the liberty of the press, as if they had obtained a personal triumph. The illumination was general. On every side fire-works were let off. Almost the whole po pulation was in the streets. Except at the be ginning of the Revolution, no manifestation of public opinion was ever so strong or so unani mous. Captain Basil Ball, the well-known author of the popular voyages, sailed from Liverpool by the Florida packet for New York, on Tuesday last. As Captain Hall, we believe, intends to remain one or two years in North America, and to visit all the most important parts of the Union, we may expect an interesting account of the country from him on his return. The Comic Muse by thee was taught To show the follies of mankind ; Great Bard, with matchless beauties fraught, And manly sentiments aombiu'd. Rule, &c. Thy works in darkness ne'er shall fall, Wide o'er the Drama thou shalt reign ; Take this great man for all in all, We shall not look upon his like again, Rule, &c. Our Poet's loyalty we boast, Old England's weal he lov'd to urge ; Fill then a bumper to this day's triple tout— " Our Sovereign, Shakspeare, and St. George." Rule, &c. . The Pageant of Monday, of the Dramatic Cha racters, is the first which has ever been preserled. It was to have been performed at Garrick's Jubilee, and all the preparations were made accordingly ; but the morning proving rainy, it was obliged to be omitted. This is not generally known. THE MASQUERADE. This entertainment, apparently as isactive as any part of the Festival, commenced at seven o'clock, in a spacious oblong booth, erected for the purpc*, in the Rother Market, an d immediately opposite *e Olympic Equestrian Circus. The interior of the booth was fitted up in the most splendid style, and illuminated with many hundred variegated lamps, in various devices; and the floor chalked with mottoes. There again the same extensive and liberal arrange ments were to he found, as have marked the whole of this memorable Ceremonial. As might oe et pected, from the superior excellence of the Pageant, the characters were most ably sustained; they were principally from the flays of Shakspeare; and the wit, repartee, humour, and deep feeling, displayed by many of the company, divested of the gro3sness and inanity of a London'Masquerade, was striking. When this report left, the public exhibition of fire works was being displayed, bands of music•parading the town, and groups of persons viewing the illu minations, and surrounding the many places of en tertainment. We cannot conclude this article without again soliciting the unremitting exertions of the Commit tee and their Secretary, in affording all requisite ac commodation to the numerous visitors, or of expres sing our gratification at the urbanity of the towns people, whose conduct has not been marked, not withstanding the crowded state of the Borough, with that avaricious disposition so often evinced in exorbitant charges on similar occasions. On the third and last day (Wednesday) there will be a Concert in the morning, and a Grand Ball in the evening, which will conclude the Festival under the Stewardship of F. Canning, Esq. and the Mayor. CHARGE OF MURDER. PERTH, APRIL 14.—Margaret Withart, accused of murder, by , having administered a quantity of arsenic to her sister, Jane Wishart, residing:with her in Arbroath, on the 3d, 4th, sth, or 6th days of Oc tober, 1826, which poison was mixed up with a quantity of porridge or gruel, and given to her to eat, as also to an infant male child of which the said Jane Wishart had been delivered upon the said 6th of October, in consequence of which poisonous mixture the said Jane Wishart immediately after became vio lently ill, and lingered in great pain until the Sth day of the said month, when she died in consequence thereof. Such was the substance of the indictment, to which the pannel pleaded " Not Guilty." Tho Jury returned a verdict, finding, by a plu rality of voices, the pannel Guilty of the murder of her sister; and finding, unanimously, the charge of murdering the child " Not proven." The LORD JUSTICE CLERK then sentenced the unhappy woman to be hanged at Forfar, on Satur day the 2d of June next, and her body to be given for dissection. The Lord Chief - Justice Clerk, in addressing her, said that there was not for her the slightest chance of mercy in this world. When she took her seat at the bar in the forenoon, she bent for ward with her eyes directed downwards—a Fsition which she maintained during nearly the I , hole cf the trial; and her features being, except for ,; short time, screened by a bonnet, little of the workings of her feelings could be seen. She appears to be about forty years of age. WESTMINSTER MEETING.—The following is a copy of the letter of the Lord High Cham berlain to the Chairman of the Westminster Committee :—" Sir—l am honoured With your letter of the 21st of April, requesting the use of Westminster-hall for a public meeting of the in habitants of Westminster. I humbly conceive, that Westminster-hall being part of the Palace, it can only be used for purposes of state, and that the present destination could not be changed ex cept by the command of his Majesty.. I trust it is unnecessary for me to assure you the great pleasure it would give me to prove my respect for the inhabit an t s o f Westminster, by offering them any service in my power. I have the honour to remain, Sir, your faithful servant, it April 2L _ " GWYDYR.
