His Majesty is this afternoon expected, during his airing, to visit the Castle. The King left the Royal Lodge yesterday afternoon, at two o'clock, accompanied by the Lord Steward, in his pony phaeton, for an airing in the Great Park. His Majesty returned to the Royal Lodge much earlier than usual, owing to the unfavour_ able state of the weather. Her Royal Highness the Princess Augusta will return to Frogniore on Wednesday next, from Bagshot Park. On Thursday morning, her Royal Highness will proceed to London, and from thence to Bushy Park, on a , visit to the Duke and Duchess of Clarence. COURT MOURNING.

The Duke of CU MBERLAND took leave of his Majesty a Windsor, on Thursday evening last, preparatory to the Duke's return to Germany. His Royal Highness will quit this coun try in two or three days to return to his Duchess and family; he will not return, as he came with portions of the Prussia* Royal Family, by way of Paris, lie will . proceed direct to Brus ads. The object of the Duke of Cumberland's visit to this country is said to have been to arrange with his 3lajesty the mode of educating the Prince of Cumberland, the allowance of 6,0001. a-year for whose education and establishment, it will be remembered, occasioned so much discussion in the House of Commons last Sessions. The particular Act for the grant, as well as what was previously the law of the land, gives the Sovereign a controuling voice in the education of the younger branches of the Royal Family. Finally to adjust such object, the Lord Chancellor was especially summoned to 'Windsor on Wednesday, and his Lordship then had a long audience of the King and the Duke of Cumberland. 'We hare been in formed that it was determined that an English Clergyman should forthwith be appointed tutor, and that a Clergyman was afterwards named to undertake the Prince of Cumber land's education ; we are not sure of the Clergyman's name, but have heard the Rev. Mr. Sumner, his Majesty's chaplain, mentioned. The young Prince of Cumberland, now, we be lieve, in his 11th year, is a great favourite with the King ; his Majesty has often been heard to express that he never met with a finer or a more promising youth. He is said to be a prompt, talkative, and clever lad. He won the King's heart at Hanover. The child was then little more than three years old ; after having taken off and twirled his cap, on his Ma jesty's approach, and exclaimed with others around him, " God save the King !" the child extended to his Majesty as hearty and engaging a welcome as came from any quarter. The King, it is expected, will send his Royal nephew, by the father, a Hanoverian order. The Duke of Cumberland, since his tem porary sojourn in this country, has several times seen and visited his Royal brother the Duke of Sussex ; and he dined at the Duke's apartments on Friday. Those two Royal brothers remain, as they ever have been, on the best and most intimate and friendly terms. The Duke of Clarence came to town on Friday from Bushy, chiefly on account of the Duke of Cumber land, and on affairs connected with his visit to, and his depar ture from England ; and on Saturday the Duke of Cumberland went to Bushy, from his apartments in St. James's Palace, to partake of a farewell dinner with the Duke of Clarence.—Yes terday the Duke of Cumberland was invited to a large dinner party at the Russian Ambassador's, Count Lieven ; where his Royal Highness was met by portions of the King's company from Windsor, at his Majesty's request ; Colonel Thornton, the King's Aide-de-Camp, &c.; Colonel Thornton remains at St. James's Palace with the Duke, and will do so till the Duke's departure. The Duke of York returns to town, from New market, for the purpose of taking a farewell of his Royal Bro ther. The Duke of Cumberland, according to existing arrangements, will certainly not remain in England be yond Wednesday or Thursday next, if so long. The Lord Chancellor, as has been already mentioned, in the Court Circular, dined with the King and his party at Windsor, on Wednesday last, after the long Council respect. ing the young Prince of Cumberland, &c. It may he added, that during the dinner and evening, his Majesty extended the most marked attention and respect to the Lord Chancellor.— The King was assiduously anxious to contribute to the comfort of the Lord Chancellor, and engaged in a good deal of conver sation with his Lordship. The Lord Chancellor is declared to be a very great favourite with his Majesty. His Lordship did not leave Windsor till Thursday morning, the King having ac companied the dinner invitation with a special request that the Chancellor would pass the night under the Royal roof. The Duke of Clarence returned to his residence at Bushy, on Friday afternoon. Yesterday the Princess Sophia visited the Duke of Cumber. land. Mr. Secretary Peel was expected to arrive in town last night. The Vice-Chancellor still continues at Boulogne. The Chief Baron has also arrived there, and occupies apartments in the Bath Hotel. NEWMARKET, OCT. 30.—His Royal Highness the Duke of York, accompanied by the Marquis Graham, the Hon Mr. Powlett, Mr. Sloane, &c. left, for Riddlesworth, the splendid and hospitable mansion of Mr. Thornhill, on a shooting visit. In the few days the illustrious Duke and his party were there, great havoc was committed on the feathered tribe, as on the first day they killed upwards of 300 head of game, and the three other days that they continued there, the Royal and Noble sportsmen were equally successful. On Friday the Duke of York, accompanied as before, departed for Euston-park, the seat of his Grace the Duke of Grafton, where they were joined by the Duke of Rutland and his amiable Duchess, Lady Caro line Powlett, &c. Shooting again commenced and continued during Friday and Saturday with sport. This morning the whole party, with the Duke of Grafton, took their departure for Cheveley, where they arrived this afternoon at two o'clock. MARRIAGE OF THE LORD LIEUTENADIT.—The nuptials of his Excellency the Lord Lieutenant and Mrs. Patterson are deferred, on account of the non-arrival of Lord Maryborough, who is expected from London. We understand that his Grace the Lord Primate will perform the marriage ceremony. The Lady is to be given away by the Bishop of Raphoe, Mrs. Pat terson being a Roman Catholic. The marriage ceremony is to be performed a second time by the Most Rev. Dr. Murray. It will, we are certain, be gratifying to the Iri s h t o l earn, t h at this accomplished Lady is not a complete alien to this country. Her maternal grandfather's name was Carroll, and he was either Irish himself, or born of Irish parents. Mrs. Patterson's pater. nal name was, we believe, Keating, a name well known in ireland.—(Dublin Correspondent.) 4:tf i rj ...,n.

Water Works being burnt, 1779; and of St. Mark, in the West Indies, being taken by the English, 1801. LORD BRIDPORT, when he commanded the Channel fleet, was called the " whiting-catcher," from his being so often in port. At a dinner given by the Mayor of Plymouth, he said " Captain Trowbridge. I suppose you have no objection to fill a bumper to the health of the Commander in-Chief."--" Not any," replied the Captain, " but hand me the claret, for I am quite tired of drinking him in port." TWO CAItDINALS found fault with RAPHAEL for having in one of his pictures given too florid a complexion o St. Peter and St. Paul. " Gentlemen," replied the artist, 11 pleased with the criticism, " don't be surprised ;_ I paint them ust as they look in Heaven. They are blushing with shame to see the Church below so badly governed." SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. BETTING AT lEI NEWMARKET.

TIIe GnExx.s.--Ily his Majesty's sloop of war the Sparrowhawk, which left Smyrna on the 7th September, it appears that the latest information received there of the united Turkish, Egyptian, and Algerine fleet was, that they had all gone to Alexandria, un d er th e. comman d of the CAPI TAN PACIIA, to obtain a reinforcement of troops. Mahomet Ali, the Pashaw of Egypt, had shown himself so lukewarm in the cause of the Porte against the Greeks, that it was understood the Capitan Pacha had been instructed to decoy him off to his ship, and cause him either to be beheaded or carried off to Con stantinople. The ships were all in a bad state, and at Alexan dria means could not be found to re-equip them. The principal naval force of the Greeks wer e re fitti ng , with a view to intercept the Turkish fleet, in their return to re-commence hostilities in the contest for possession of the Morea. The Egyptian force in the Morea, under Ibrahim Paella (son of the Viceroy of Egypt), is estimated at 10,000 men. He had lost great num bers by sickness, and his stragglers and foragers are constantly cut off by the neighbouring partisans. All the sick left at Tripolizza with the troops stationed there for their protection, had lately been massacred to a man. The Turks recently made an irruption into Livadia, but been blockaded by the Greek ships, these operations were necessarily suspended. A great number of French officers are in the employ of the Turks and Egyptians. A few English are in the Greek service,_ and only one in the Egyptian, a su rge o n , w h o was sent out to the Greeks, in charge of a large quantity of m e di c i nes , prov id e d f or t h em b y some Quakers in this country ; he had been subsequently in duced by a large reward to enter into Ibrahim Pacha's service. The Sparrowhawk conveyed to /.ante, the English Captain Trelawney, who took refuge with his brother-in-law Odysseus, from the revenge of the Greeks, in the fortified cave on the summit of Mount Parnassus. A treacherous attempt had been made by two fellows, employed by the Greeks, to assassinate him, for having betrayed their cause. H e was s h o t i n t h e b ac k ; one ball passed out in the front of his shoulder, by which he lost the use of his arm, and another passed through his neck and came out at his mouth.—(Hanzp.thire Telegraph.) MURDER IN FRANCE.—We stated in our Paper on Friday, on the authority of a French Journal, that a dread ful murder had been committed on the persons of two females at Castres, in France. By the arrival of more recent papers last night, we have obtained the following detail:—The vic tims were an unmarried lady of the name of Sabotier, sister to the author of the Troies Skein. Litteraires, and her niece Mad. Bousseguy, with whose family the former lived. M. Bousse guy, on the 16th inst. had gone out after supper, leaving his wife and her aunt alone with his son, who had returned from a coffee-house, where lie had passed the day, to mention that he would not sup at home. In a moment after, the neighbours heard the cry of murder proceeding from M. Bousseguy's house, and hastening to it, found the two females bathed in blood—the one in the kitchen, the other at the top of the stair case. One of the persons who first came to the spot declared that he saw the son Bousseguy escape with precipitation by the door of the shop, which, though usually shut, was found open some instants after. The absent father being informed imme diately of the dreadful event, cried out, in the first agony of his grief, that his son alone was capable of such a crime. Persons went immediately in search of him, and found him sitting in a coffee-house, quietly. smoking his pipe in th e m id st o f young persons of s own age, bearing no marks of the atrocity of which public indignation accused him. When the news was announced, he still preserved his original coolness, declaring that the thing was impossible. Being then told that he was strongly suspected of being the criminal, he replied with the same indifference, " See, I have got no marks of blood." He was carried to view the dead bodies, but allowed neither sorrow nor dejection, and persisted in his denials. It has since been impossible to obtain from him any confession. In proceeding to the examination of the bodies on the following day, it was observed that each victim had been destoyed by a single blow. The mother had her lungs cut through from side to side. On 1 searching the house, it was discovered that a kitchen knife had disappeared. No cause is assigned for this atrocity. It is known only that the conduct of the young man gave great cause of uneasiness to his family, and that abusing the tenderness of his parents, whose only h ope h e was, h e ran i nto expences he- 1 yond their means, and required money which they could not ' supply. The funeral of these unfortunate victims took place one the 17th, and was attended by nearly the whole population of Castres. • On Saturday, large placards, issued from the Queen-square Police-office, by order of the 3.l.tg,iiiratex, were affixed about Westminster, • Warning manufacturers of, and dealers in, and firers off' of loyal squibs, crackers, and other similarly composed combustibles, not to indulge, if they dislike legal penalties and visitations, in their predilections, whether profitable or pleasurable, on the approaching sth of November, when Protestant youths show th eir h orror or conspiracies, by once more consigning effigies of Guid o , ai m G uy F aw k es, to the flames.

The Africa, --., from Honduras, (which vessel sailed on the Ist of August), being so considerably out of time, that 0 per cent. has been done on her at Lloyd's, arrived safe at Bristol on Saturday. Snir LAUNCII.—The Lord Lowther, an East Indiaman of the first class, was launched on Saturday from the dock-yard of Messrs. Barnard and Co. Deptford. The state of th e tid e serving a little before 3 o'clock, and the requisite arrangements being completed, the noble vessel glided majestically into the river, amidst the cheers of the multitude assembled to witness the ceremony. Lord Lowther, after whom the vessel is named, was present on the occasion, and a large platform, occupying one entire side of the dock, was filled with an assemblage of elegant company, to the number of nearly 400. After the launch they adjourned to the sail-room, which was fitted up in a characteristic, but tasteful manner, for their reception, where they partook of a n exce ll ent co ld co ll at i on. A b and of music attended ; and after the repast the company were gratified by the performance of glees and vocal music, by a select corps of professional gentlemen, consisting of Messrs. Leete, Terrail, l'yne, Broadhurst, an d Fi tzw illi am. A fter several loyal and national toasts had been given, the healths of Lord Lowther, of Mr. H. Blanshard, the managing owner, and of Captain Steward, the commander of the new vessel, were drank with much enthusiasm, Shortly after six o'clock a portion of the tables were removed for the purpose of clearing sufficient space for dancing, which was then commenced with great spirit, and kept up without intermission to a late hour. We never wit nessed an entertainment of the kind better conducted, nor in which more genuine good humour and cordiality prevailed from its commencement to its conclusion. DESCRIPTION OF PORT BOWEN, PRINCE RE. GENT'S INLET, as given in Captain PARRY'S- First Voy. age, and in which the Expedition that has just returned wintered during the late attempt for a North-West Passage. " Friday, Aug. 13, 1819.—The weather was beautifully calm and clear, when, being near an opening in the eastern shore, I took the opportunity of examining it in a boat. It proved to he a bay, a mile wide at its entrance, and three miles deep, in an E. by S. direction, having a small but snug cove on the north side, formed by an island, between which and the main land is a bar of rocks, which completely shelters the cove from sea or drift ice. We found the water so deep, that in row ing close along the shore we could seldom get bottom with seven fathoms of line; and, as time could not be spared to ob. tain the exact depth, the soundings in the plan are necessarily very imperfect. The cliffs on the south side of this bay, to which 1 gave the name of Port Bowen, after Captain James Bowen, one of the C omm i ss i oners o f hi s Majesty's Navy, re semble, in many places, ruined towers and battlements, and fragments of the rocks were constantly falling from above. At the head of the hay is an extensive piece of low flat ground, in tersected by numerous rivulets, which, uniting at a short dis tance from the beach, formed a deep and rapid stream, near the mouth of which we landed. This spot was, I think, the most bar ren I ever saw,the ground being almost entirely covered with mai pieces of slaty limestone, among which no vegetation appeared for more than a mile, to which distance Mr. Ross and myself walked inland, following the banks of the stream. Among the fragments we picked up one piece of limestone, on which was the impression of a fossil shell. We. saw here a great number of young black guillimots (Colymbus Grylle) and a flock of ducks, which we supposed to be of the eider species. 'The la titude observed at the mouth of the stream was 73 deg. 12 min. 11 sec. ; and the longitude, by chronometer, 89 deg. 2 min. 8 eec. The variation of the needle observed in the morning, at three or four miles distance from the land, was 114 deg. 16 min. 43 sec. westerly. From twenty minutes after eleven till a quarter after twelve, the tide rose by the shore six inches, and the high water mark was between two and three feet above this ; but we were not long enough on shore to form a correct judgment of the tim e at which high water takes place. About three quarters of a mile to the southward of Port Bowen is another small bay which we had not time to examine." LONDON MARKETS, &c. CORN EXCHANGE, OCT. 31. The supplies of all sorts of Grain last week were consider able, with a large quantity of Flour. There are this morning very moderate supplies of all sorts of Grain fresh in. Prime Wheat is still scarce, and eagerly sought after at rather higher prices ; other qualities are very heavy, but not lower. Barley for malting is in demand, and full as dear as last week, other sorts are quite stagnant. Beans maintain last quotations. Pease for boiling are 2s. per quarter cheaper. Grey Pease are unaltered. Oats of prime quality sell freely at the terms of last Monday, and all other sorts are not so free in sale, but maintain last quotations. There is no variation to report in the Flour trade.

DAILY Extracts from the Morning Papers, Oct. 31 2 l 825. [THE TIMES.] The Parks, we find by experience, are a tick lish subject. Nothing can be suggested for the more complete accommodation of the citizens— no remonstrance made against encroachments on the boundaries of these wholesome pleasure-gar dens, or 'against, the conversion of the segments thus cut off into private and selfish property, without some Court-porcupine fretting and swell ing, and shooting its quills at every advocate of the public enjoyments. This we have observed in the case of Hyde-park, the improvement of which appears to have stopped short in the very quarter—viz., the Kensington-road—where it ought to have been pushed with the utmost earnestness and activity. The Regent's-park, as we are credibly informed, demands now to be closely watched. It may not be known to the bulk of our readers, that a certain Mr. Maberly has hired time Park in question for a grazing -ground, taking in horses and other cattle to feed there, at so much per week. Mr. %la. berly is said to have made the public-spirited proposal, that those who thought fit to pay him a specific sum should have the liberty of riding in this public park ! The Commissioners of Woods and Forests, to be sure, had the grace to reject this offensive and intolerable proposition ; but still how are the inhabitants of London treated ? They cannot venture to set their feet on the herbage of an enclosure, for the laying out and cultivating and adorning which, large sums of the national treasure were given away by Parlia ment. High-bred horses and venerable bul locks are the favoured ministers of that luxriant domain—the poor people who paid for it must be arbitrarily excluded. Now this treatment is somewhat supercilious, to our fancy. Be sides, the said park is to be cut -up into play ground for another description of petted ani mals ; villas are to be multiplied without end ; anti the curtailment of plebeian comforts carried to an unmerciful extravagance. The Marquis of Hertford is to have a full-grown me tropolitan villa, with its dependencies ; Lord Northesk another ; Sir Herbert Taylor a third : —lB in all, reduced from 26. the original project. There are villas enough already—more than enough to shut out the citizens, and to throw the beloved aspect of oligarchical influence over this estate of the Crown, furnished from the national money. Why should not the whole extent of the Regent's-park be, like that of Hyde-park, acces sible to all pedestrians ? Why should the green herbage be farmed out to a monopolist, and the pent-up and wearied people of the metropolis turned over to dust and gravel. [NEW TIMES.] 'We last night received American papers to the 30th ult. They are much occupied with a cu rious question—will Charles X. pay the Yankees for the robberies they suffered from their dear friend Boney ?—Oh, no, my dear Yankees, King Charles is not quite so soft. He will naturally say to you—why, you were in love with this robber; you crouched to him ; you joined him against the English ; you thought it a fine op portunity in 1812, when he was marching to uncrown Alexander, for you to fall upon your old Master, King George ! In sober sadness, impudence cannot well be carried further than for the Americans to demand of the Bour bons, compensation for the spoliations exercised by Buonaparte. America has a portion of the stolen goods in her own possession, at this mo ment. There is Joseph Buonaparte, there are the young Murats, and several others, who shared the plunder made by their great relation, the Banditti Captain. Let their property be attached ; let it be divided, as far as it will go, among the citizens of the United States, whom Napoleon Buona parte plundered. We are now told that he " committed depredations on the high seas, and in French ports, in opposition to every. feature of justice, and in violation of every principle of the Law of Nations." All extremely - true—and yet after all this, the United States became his lackeys, his vassals, his allies in the war ! And would they now be paid, and by a . third party too, for outrages which they basely put up with at the time ?—Yoh ! poh ! [THE PUBLIC LEDGER.] Frankfort Papers to the 24th instant, which arrived last night, contain advice frdrn Constan tinople to the 24th ult. After stating that no intelligence had been lately received from the seat of war, they mention as a report, very current in that capital, that both the Viceroy of Egypt and his son, had written to the Porte, exhorting that Power to enter into an arrangement with the Greeks, having for its basis proposals, made by that people themselves. The nature of these proposals is not specified; and it is merely stat ed, that they had been submitted in the first in stance to Ibrahim Pacha, who thought them so reasonable that he transmitted them without delay to the Sultan, accompanied with the ur gent recommendation we have already mentioned. The rumour, however, is treated as improbable, though no reason is assigned for this opinion ; and for our own parts we cannot help thinking that there is some truth in it. It is well known that Itusia, from the very commencement of this ob stinate and sanguinary contest, has expressed herself strongly in favour of .a pacifiCation, which, without militating with the priuciple of legiti macy, or, in other words, the indefeasible rights of the Porte, would secure certain privileges to the Greeks. In order to avoid every thing whi c h by its novelty might excite Turkish j ealousy, the plan according to which Wallachia and Moldavia are governed has been recommended, and all the influence of Russia has been ever since employed to gain over to it the ether European Powers. In the article before us it.'is also hinted that the Viceroy of Egypt andhisson have been induced, by means of European in:. trigue, to adopt it with fervour ; and amongst ~ the Greeks who are said to favour it, Colocotroni in particular is mentioned. 'This individual has always passed amongst his countrymen as a par-
