Another very lengthened debate took place last night on the subject of the proposed Grant to the Duke of CUIdBERLAND, and a most stre- vinous opposition was made to defeat the resolu tion the House had already come to. On the division there appeared to be for the Grant •120, against it 97, giving a majority of only 23. The - condition that the young Prince Gr.oanx should be educated in England is attached to the Grant, a nd voluntarily submitted to by the Minister. We cannot say we at all approve of - this sys tens of determined hostility, and more especially when the re is every reason to believe that it arises more out of a vindictive spirit than any dislike to the principle on which the grant is proposed. It is a wellknOwn fact, and indeed was mentioned in the House on the first debate nu the question, that the hostility the Duke of CUMBERLAND has encountered is the result only •f ►►is opposition to the Whigs, and the prorni xtent part he took in ousting their administra tion. Parliament could not, without the most manifest injustice, confer the grant on the Duchess of KaNT, and ' withhold it from the Duke of CUMBERLAND. Both cases are . . - parallel, and both ought to stand or fall on the same reasoning. The charaCter of the Royal Duke has nothing to do with it, for his sins aught not to be visited on his son, and if the daughter of the Duke of KENT 15 to be - educated at the, charge of the . Country, so alaci ought tile son of the Duke of CUMBERLAND. The education of that Son in England is too in our eyes a matter of some importance, and if that advantage can be secured at so entail a cost, that alone is sufficient reason for granting the :annuity. It would be much more creditable to , the Whigs had they forgotten the grievance that -excited their hostility' against the Royal Duke, acid displayed a little more of that Christian spirit which would teach them not to judge in '':-.ardor that they be not judged. ' , LW i~. ~. 4 " , i7rmy, - Ltsnow, MAY 19.—llis Majesty the King and their Royal Highnesses the Infantas having accepted • the invitation of the Commander of his Britannic Majesty's ship the Wellesley, deigned to honour with their presence a ball given this evening on board that ship. We shall give, in a separate article, a par ticular description of this fke. At present we shall only say that this vessel brought to Lisbon his Excellency Sir Charles Stuart, furnished with full powers from his Britannic Majesty as Commissioner, Mediator, and Plenipotentiary, to put an end to the differences which unhappily subsist between Portugal and Brazil ; and his Excellency having concluded the negotiation with which he was charged in this capital, will set out is a few dap for Brazil. The confidence which we place in the principles of justice and impartiality which animate the British Government, and the repeated proofs that we have seen of the magnanimity of our August Sovereign, give us the most flattering hopes that this most important affair will be ter minated in a manner suitable to the honour of the august house of Braganza, and to the real interest of the people of Portugal and Brazil. DEPARTMENT Or FOREIGN AFFAIRD.—The easy circu lation of newspapers, especially the national ones, in which are inserted the laws and the orders 1 am pleased to issue, being of great importance to the public, I have thought fit to determine that all periodicals sent by the post shall pay a fourth part of what letters pay only, they must be put in covers left open in such a manner that it may be seen that no papers of any other kind are lneluded.—[ Addressed to the Conde de Porto Santo, Minister of Foreign Affairs, Post Master General, &c., and signed by his Majesty.]—(Lisbon Gazette, May 16 to 19, inclusive.) SWITZERLAND, MAY I6.—The Emperor of Austria has promised a Deputation froin Venice to visit that city on his return to Vienna, and remain there some time. His Majesty's stay at Venice will be protracted, as he intends to turn his atten. tiun to the adoption of measures to raise tlib commerce of that city, which has entirely declined. Several plans for improve ments in the Administration will be laid before him, and in ge neral Venice will be peculiarly an object of Majesty's regard. It is said that his Majesty will go from Milan to Partna,Mtxlena,and Florence, and return to Vienna by way of Bologna and Venice, but nothing more is said of his visiting Rome.—(Nacremburg Correspondent, May 23.) SuYnx a, APRIL 18.— Letters from Alexandria of 27th March agece in stating, that the Viceroy is preparing another expedition, said to consist ,of 17,000 men, to be employed against the Mores. The Viceroy in person superintends the preparations at Cairo, and has appointed his son-in-law, the Defterdar Bey, to the command.--(Allgerneine Zeitsiug, Jray 24.) In our fourth page will be found extracts from the French Papers of Saturday lust. They con tain no intelligence of importabce, if we except an article from the Conslitutionnel, dated Madrid, May la, hich deserves attention. Dutch Papers to the 28th instant arrived last night. They contain a Decree from Baron de CAPTI.LEW, Go ♦ernor-General of Java, abolishing the duty on the exportation of Sugars faom that Island and that of Madura, when made in Netherland vessels, and reducing it to one florin per pickel of 1,125 pounds, when made in foreign vessels. MST It imam, AlAr 27. Exchange on London, 39 4 ; two months, 39 2. The real causes of the disturbance at Madrid some time since, were imperfectly known in this country or ix France. We now state them upon an au - liority on which we confidently depend. The King of SPAIN was, and perhaps is, greatly straitened for want of money. Some bold specula tors of this country purchased of his Christian Majesty works of art, and objects of virtu to a great amount ; the two first portions were removed with care ; the third was not so carefully kept from the knowledge of the public. The populace having ascertained that valuables were being removed from the Palace, considered it as preparatory to the departure of the King. A tumult ensued—the Englishmen demanded their passports—the French Commandant hearing that sonic delay had taken place , went to the Police office to hasten their being given to those who demanded them—dissension arose between him and the Officer of Police, who received several blows from the enraged Commandant. This increased the tumult, and eventually led to the departure of those French troops from the capital ; they marched out cheering and waving their huts, glad to leave so distracted and hateful a place.

Wrsosoa, MAY 39.—Yesterday and this day his MAJTST Y. has taken en airing in his pony phaeton fox. upwards of two hours in. the Great Park, attended by the Lord Steward and the Earl Mount Charles. His Majesty's distinguished visitors are expected to arrive this evening at the Royal Lodge. His Royal highness the Duke of York will arrive this evening at Frog more Lodge to dinner. THE FRENCH CORONATION. NISMES, MAY 9.7.—The Klxa is arrived here, and will to-morrow make his entry into Rheims. His Ma- jesty was preeded by the Duke of Angoulenae, the Duke of Orleans, and the different members of the Royal Family. He passed *through Soissons, which presented ' a very gay ap pearance, the houses 'being covered with branches of trees mixed with flowers, and an abundatice of white flags waving from the windows. The triumphal arch was very pretty, 'and bore the following inscription : " Le Itoi, heureux Pere par la gloire De son fits et par l'amour de her sujets." At this place also there is an arch, bearing the following: " Charles X. pour long tems, et les Bourbons pour toujours." The Duchess of Angouletne went to mass this morning• at Soissons. After the mass, the Mayor, who is a man of some note, ()Tared his hand to the Duchess, who declined to accept it, and touk the hand of the principal Administrator of the Church—an honorary office, but one, it seems, -which entitles him to the distinction bestowed. As the Duchess performed the act rather ungraciously, it vexed the Mayor much, and en tirely disturbed the harmony of his,arrangements. The Duke of Northumberland is expected every moment. It is said that he has ordered between 70 and BO horses. The Rus- sian Ambassador had only 20 horses, the Spanish Atnbassdor only B—consequently, on the road, the English Ambassador is thought superior to the others, for the rank and distinction of a man seem to be measured by the scale of expenCe at which he travels. As a mire ceremony, 'certainly the S acre, of Charles X. will be very inferior to the Coronation of George IV., particularly in the processional part ; for in England there were Peers ,and Peeresses splendidly dressed, and here there will be very few Peers, and those with dressca very inferior . to the English. It, would, howcvcr, be difficult to perauade the French that any thing half so fine as the Sacre of Charles X. ever took place in any part of Europe.

ARDIYAL OF THE KING AT THE CATHEDRAL. On the 29th of May the King makes his solemn entry into the city of Rheims. He advances to the grand entrance of the Cathedral, where he is received by the Archbishop of Rheims, at the head of the Chapter, assisted by his Suffra gan Bishops. These prelates wear each their mitre and manteau ecclesiastique. Charles the Tenth kneels devoutly at the door of the Cathedral, and having kissed the Holy Gospel, carried by one of the prebendaries, he is compli mented by the Archbishop; after which the. Grand Chorister chant a response. The priests then re-enter the church in their order of procession, and the King, walking after the bishops, is conducted to a reading-desk prepared for the pur- pose, and placed under a canopy. An anthem being first chaunt ed, the Archbishop proceeds to read' the appointed psalms and prayers. Te Deism is then sung, amidst salutes of artillery, which are discharged at intervals. During the anthem the King's donation to the church of Rheims is brought in with great ceremony, consisting of a golden pyx (a cup wherein the Host is kept); two crystal burettes, with their basona; and two crucifixes (instrument de paix a :.aiser.) The First Gentlemen of the • Bedchamber first delivers these intended presents intb the hands of the King, who proceeds to make an offer of them to God, by placing them on the altar.— Te Drum being concluded, the Archbishop pronounces the Benediction, after which the King withdraws to the Archiepis copal Palace. His Majesty there receives the , homage of the Church of Rheims. The Provost deputed by the Chapter ad dresses the King, and presents him the bread and wine. The .Corporation of the Town bring him the customary presents, anti the University offers a congratulatory address to his Ma jesty by the mouth of its Rector. CONSECRATION 61Y The Princes, the great Lords, the Ecclesiastics, and those persons of distinction invited to the ceremony, take places re spectively appointed for them. The Marshals of France appointed by the King to carry the crown, the sceptre, and the hands of justice (la main de justice) take their station on a bench behind the seat of the temporal Peers. About Seven o'clock the temporal Peers arrive from the Archiepiscopal Palace, and are received and conducted by the Grand Master of the Ceremonies to a place appointed for them ; their scat is covered with violet-coloured velvet, embroider ed fleurs delis, in the sane manner as that of the ecclesi astical Peers. Each of these Peers is habited in a vest of cloth of gold, clasped by a circle of gold, and above their loe i e vf,t they wear a ducal mantle of violet-coloured cloth, doubled anti boniered with ermine, .open et the right shoulder; the cape is also ',ordered ermine. Eac'l has on a ducal crown of ! sold "surmounting a cap of violet-coloured satin. Shortly after the temporal Peers have taken their places, thee'. ogether with the Ecclesirs'.lrol Peers, consult with the Archbishop of Rheims upon the selection of two Bishops, to wait upon and introduce the King. The two Prelatets appointed for that purpose, arrayed in the Pontifical he.bits, set out in procession, preceded by all the Prebendaries of the Church of Rheims and a band of music. The Chorister and Sub ( 'horister walk after the Clergy and before the Grand Master of e Ceremonies, who immediately precedes the two Bishops.

The Great Chamberlain, without opening the door, asks, " Que detnandez vets?" The Bishops answer, " l,e Rol." The Great Chamberlain replies, " Le Itoi dort," (the King sleepeth). The Chorister having knocked, and the Bishops having a second time asked for the King, the Great Chamber lain returns the same a nswer ; but the Chorister having struck the third time, and the Great Chamberlain haying again an swered as before, the Bishops exclaim , " Noustleniandons Charles X. que Dieu nous a donne pour Roi."----(We require Charles X., whom God hath given us to be our King.) -Imme diately the doors of the chamber were thrown open, and the Grand Master of the Ceremonies conducts the Bishops into the presence of the King, to whom they bow meat profoundly. The ' King is found reclining on a state bed, habited in a long crim son. vest, ornamented with gold lace, and open, as is also the shirt, on those places on which his .Majesty is to be anointed.— Above this vest his Majesty has on a long robe of silver stuff, • and on his•head a cap of black velvet, embroidered with a band of diamonds, a plume, and double tuft of white feathers. One of the Bishops, having said prayers, presents the King with holy water. The two Bishops : then raise his Majesty from. the bed, and conduct him in procession to the church. After the usual ceremonies, the King.; followed by a magni ficent retinue, is conducted-by the Bishops to the chair under a canopy in the middle of the enoir, where he is surrounded by the principal Officers of State, who stand under a large canopy. Every one being at his place, " Veni Creator" -is sung, after which the Prebendaries begin the fierce, which service being finished, the phial containing the holy'oil (la Sainte Ampoule) arrives at the door of the church, Ste., /it.c.

VAUXHALL—These gardens were last night opened for the season, with all their usual splendour. To the various embellishments with which •they were ornamented last season, several pleasing decorations have been added, the most prominent of which are a series of Indian views which beautify the walls of the' Rotunda. While all the. leatling*.features of the former attractions have been .prescrved, they have undergone numerous minute improvements, :Which, although individually trifling,' have; collectively, a very considerable and advantageous effect. An augmentation•of ; the lamps gives ad ditional brilliancy to the. scene; whilst an increased orchestra spreads the captivating effects of. the music more' extensively around. The airs have been more judiciouSly selected than heretofore, Mr. Rooke,, the leader, having had the good taste to avoid every thing which might be considered coarse or vulgar. Between the acts of the concert, a new ballet, called Fortune, or the Peasant Pt inee, W 35 performed by a-very 'numerous j u _ venile corps of dancers, who acquitted themselves with consi derable eelat. After this came the Fantoccini, the French juggler, a performer on six instruments at once, several other entertainments, and lastly, a magnificent and highly effective display of fire-works, in the midst of which I .llr. lilackmore made what the bills very truly called " a most terrific ascent" on the tight rope from the Moorish Tower. Upon the whole, the arrangements are well calculated to render theSe gardens most attractive scene of recreation and delight throughout the season. The company last night were not so numerous as they Iwould have been, were it not for the unfavourable turn t?.e. weather took in the early part of the evening. LITERATURE.--We beg, to call the attention of the young, the old, and those who are mourning for the dead , to a little Volume, called the " Vision of Hades, or the Re gion inhabited by the departed Spirits of the Blessed."—The notes, which are of considerable length, treat of the situation of the intermediate receptacle of Departed Spirits—the Ministry of Angels—and the Nature and Condition of the Soul after Death. It would serve as a book of references to Divines on curious subjects. THE PRESENT BISHOP OF SALISBURY.—TLP Clergy, resident ir the Archdeaconry of Carmarthen, ha e addressed a requisition to the Venerable and Rev. T.

Should this report prove true, the Spa niards can hold out with easq -calbto, for a considerable time longer." THUNDER STORII.S.—As it is .not uncommon for persons in the country, who are overtaken by a thunder storm, to seek shelter under a tree or hedge, it may bs proper to retnark, that they are there in much greater danger than in the open field; for, as - trees become conductors of lightning, the . person, placed in contact with a tree struck„ would inevitably receive part of the shock ; .and any metallic substance or implement with him, or about his person, would increase the portion of that shock. It is also 'worthy of recol lection, that the danger is materially increased if the ground at the foot of such a tree be in a remarkably Airy state, which is always the case during the summer or autumnal months, when thunder and lightning in our climate are most prevalent. HEN ICY SAYERY —" We are enabled to con tradict the paragraph," says the Bristol Mirror of Saturday, 4* which, has appeared in several of the London Papers, stating. in reference to a late triakthat one of our local Magistrates had been severely reprimanded for his conduct on that occasion.— No such reprimand has been given or received."

The eir eumstance was done in a moment, and excited feelings of the greatest horror among the by-etanders.
