LAW 1144 4 ELLICIENCE.-(T1118 DAY.) VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT. His Honour the Vicz-CirANcsimo& took motions to day. ' . DI SICAUVOIR V. RHODES. Mr. Ktrtairr applied for an order in this case, com pelling the defendant to pay the sum of 11,0001., the ba lance found by the Master to be due from Mr. Rhodes, into Gait; • Mr. PIM thought, as exceptions had been taken to the Master's report, the best course to adopt would be to let guile exceptions be heard in the first instance. - Mr. KNIGHT observed that the exceptions had nothing to do with the present motion, the object of which, he trusted, the Court would think it ought to accede to. The . Vics-CtraNcruon considered it would be the belt to appoint an early day for hearing the exceptions. After some discussion it was agreed that the arguments on the exceptions should take place on Thursday next, subject, howeier, to any application by Mr. Pepys to have the matter proceeded with at any future time. ASSIZES.--(RECEIVED THIS DAY.) (nog ova OWN COARESPONDENT.) OXFORD CIRCUIT.—WORCESTER, JULY 26. The commission for this county was opened on Satur day by Mr. Justice PAREE• Yesterday (Sunday) their Lordships attended Divine Service at the cathedral, and this morning the business of the Assizes commenced. Mr. Justice PARER presides in the Crown Court, and Mr. Justice BOSANQUAT at Nisi PrittS. The calendar contains the names of twenty-eight pri soners; of - which two are charged with murder, and two as accessaries before the net; cutting and maiming, one; manslaughter, one ; administering poison to seven waggon horses, one; sheep.stealing, three; horse-stealing, two; perjury, one; highway robbery, one; the others are charged with burglar ies. CROWN SIDE. After his Majesty's Proclamation against vice and immo rality had been read, Mr. Justice PARLI charged the Grand Jury. His Lordship said when he first had tbo honour of presiding . , a Judg e ' i n t h at county, the average number of pri beers for trial was then about eighty-six. He was happy new to observe that number had decreased more than one hat • Whether this change had been effected by an is . Creased vigilance on the part of the police, or of the ma gistracy, it was not then worth while to enquire, but it V/u &subject of congratulation. In the present calendar, • however, there were several charges of a most serious na ture, and which would require the greatest attention. With respect to the charge of cutting and maiming, wills Intent to kill, he had read the d e po s i t i ons , an d h e t h oug h t it %via be impossible for them to return a bill, 115, if death under the circumstances had ensued, the 'offence would only be one of manslaughter. The Wounded man struck the the prisoner in the first instance, and it did not appear that he (the prisoner) took the knife .up for the purpose of strikin g th e p rosecutor , b ut t h at b e had it in his hand at the time he received the blow; they ,Would therefore be relieved from this case, The next case to which he wished to direct their attention was one of some novelty, and bad seldom formed the subject of con versation in a court ofjustice. The prisoner was charged with administering and giving to seven waggon horses sulphuric acid and certain other deleterious drugs, with intent unlawfully and maliciously to kill the same. Now this case would require their patient attention, and it was 'right for him (Mr. Justice Parke) to inform them, that the statute against killing and maiming of cattle, and which statute was revised by an Act of Sir Robert Peel's, contained no provision against administering poison to cattle ; it only related to killing and maim . ini. But he (Mr. Justice Parke) was decidedly of opinion, ' if the charge against the prisoner was proved, that it was a misdemeanour at common law, and punishable as such. There was another case which bore a most disagreeable c omplexion; it was a charge of murder against a young men, by throwing a child down the mouth of a pit. His Lordship had read the depositions, and must confess he was at a loss: to conceive what probable motive the prisoner CO ,have to commit such an act. If, however, they thought there was sufficient evidence to bring it under the censidiration of the Court, and the charge was established, whatever his motives, he must suffer the punishment of the law. The next case was one of a very serious nature. There were three prisoners included in the charge—the Aril a female, for the murder of her illegitimate child ; and her father and mother were charged as accessories before t he act. He thought, however, there w.ts not the slightest evidence. to convict the two latter persons. These were the only cases that called for any observations. His LoRDSHIP then said, that a newspaper had been lent to him in London, by which he found that the Ma- Itiatrates' had determined upon erecting new Courts. Where they then were sitting was certainly a very elegant WI, but extremely inconvenient fur the purpose of ad ministering justice. But, however, as the Magistrates of !hat great and respectable county were about to remedy the ~.t e convenience he would say no snore on the subject. Ili • hle diesty's proclamation against vice and immorality, whi c h just been read, spared him from making many ob servations be should otherwise have done. It called at tention to all that was good and virtuous and worthy of ex ample, and recommended piety and religion. There was smother subject he wished particularly to bring under their co nsideration, he meant the mischievous effects that ensued from the practice of farmers and manufacturers paying their labourers late on a Ssturday night. It could not ma ke the least possible difference if they were to be paid °A a Pr ideY, and it would be the means of preventing much tippling at public-lieuses and of violation of the Sab bath. This was a moat desirable object. He did not know to whet l ength drunkenness and disorders on the Suud a y extended in this county, but he lamented to say, that in London at the present time it exceeded every thing he could ever remember. Ile hoped they would take this practice into their serious consideration. The Grand Jury then retired. Thomas lneeley, aged 67, was indicted for wilful and corrupt perjury. The evidence, however, was not suffi aieet to substantiate the charge, and the prisoner was acquitted. CIVIL SIDE. (Before Mr. Justice BOSJNQUZT.)

After partaking of a dejeune, given on the most splendid scale by the Duke of WELLINGTON at Apsley House, to the KING and QUEEN, the members of the Royal Family, and a large party of General Officers, who were present at the Review, his MAJESTY, accompanied by the King of WURTEMBERG, and attended by the Loan CHAMBERLAIN and Earl CATHCART, went to GRILLON'S Hotel in one of the Royal Carriages, escorted by a detachment of the Life Guard., and followed by Lord CLINTON, Colonel FITZ' CLARENCE, and some of the attendants of the King of WURTEMBERG, in a second carriage, where the King of WURTEMBERG and suite alighted. The KING proceeded to his Palace at St. James's. The King of WURTEMBERG, attended by his Lord Chamberlain and an Equerry, and also by Lord CLIN. TON and Colonel FITZCLARENCE, paid a visit to Prince FREDERICK of Prussia, at the residence of the Duke and Duchess of CUMBERLAND, in the King's Palace, St. James's. His MAJESTY held a chapter of the Order of the Garter in the evening, for the purpose of conferring the Order on the King of WURTEMBERG. The King of WURTEMDERG came in state to the Palace at St. James's, escorted by a detachment of the Life Guards, with his suite, in two car riages, together with Lord CLINTON and Colonel FITZ CLA RENCE. His Britannic MAJESTY, attended by the great officers of state and other officers of the household, received the King of WURTENIRERG on alighting from his carriage, and conducted his illustrious visitor to the draw ing-room. The Knights of the Order arrived at the Palace, and were robed in the gallery in the superb purple velvet robes of the order, and having been placed according to their se niority, they proceeded in grand procession into the Throne room, where the Chapter was held. The Knights pro ceeded singly in the following order :--The Duke of RIM MOND, the Duke of DEVONSHIRE, the Duke of Lzans, the Duke of DORSET, the Marquis of litaTroa.o, the Duke of BUCKINGHAM, Earl Ba.rutiasT, the Duke of WELLING TON, the Earl of LONSSALZ, the Duke of 13EAuron.T, Earl of HA RDWICKI, Duke of RUTLAND, Earl of WESTaIORE. LAND, Prince LEOPOLD, the Duke of GLOUCESTER, the Duke of Syssitz, and the Duke of CUMBERLAND. His MAJ awry took hie seat on the throne in consequenpe of the individual about to be elected being a sovereign. The Kim; wore a new robe, the train of which was much longer than that of any of the Knights. The robe was made by Mr. WXIIII, robe-maker to the KING. Mr. MAWS and Mr. Blinn Ns, the Gentlemen Ushers, introduced the Knights, who, after bowing to the Kura, took their seats at the table according to their order. The chapter was then opened by reading the statute under which the chapter is held. The King-at-Arms, in his full robes, went into the King's closet with his staff of office in his hand, and intro duced the King of WURTESIBERG, who kneeling on a crimson velvet cushion, his MAJESTY waved the Sword of State over his head, by that ceremony conferring the honour of knighthood. The King of Wurvrimmto then kissed the KING'S hand and retired. The Chancellor of the Order then collected from each Knight, beginning with the Duke of CUMBERLAND as the senior, and ending with th e D u k e o f R ICHMOND as junior, their votes, which each Knight wrote on a sheet of paper, folded in four folds, and delivered them to the SOVEREIGN, who, after examining them, instructed the Chancellor to declare in his name, the King of WURTEMBERO duly elected as Member of the Most Noble Order of the Garter. The Dukes of CUMBERLAND and SUSSEX, the two Senior Knights, with Garter King at Arms, then retired, bowing, and introduced the King of WuarzatnEnc. The ()imam, and the female members of the Royal Fa mily, were present to witness the ceremony. Her AfAJESTr sat on the throne to the left of the KING ; the Princess AUGUSTA, the Duchess of KENT, the Duchess of CUMBERLAND, and the Duchess of GLOUCESTER, stood as spectators. The Princess VICTORIA was with the Duchess of KENT; and Prince GEORGE with the Duchess of CUMBERLAND; Prince FREDERICK of PrUSbiR was also present. Mr. MARTINS, one of the Gentlemen Ushers in Wait. ing, handed to the King at Arms the Garter, Riband, and Order, upon a crimson velvet cushion. The Dukes of CUMBERLAND and SussEx introduced he King of WURTEMBERD to his MAJESTY, when the KING, assisted by the Royal Dukes, was graciously pleased to place the Order of the Garter round the left knee. The King of WURTEMBSRG then rose, and the Chancellor then pronounced the following admonition : " To the honour of God omnipotent, and in memorial of the blessed martyr St. George, tie about thy leg, for thy renown, this noble Garter. Wear it as the symbol of the Most Illustrious Order, never to be forgotten or laid aside, that thereby thou mayest be admonished to be courageous; and having undertaken a just war in which thou shalt be engaged, thou mayest stand firm, valiantly fight, and successftilly conquer." The King of Woantsingen again knelt upon his right knee, when the Says/allow was pleased to place the blue riband upon his left sh o uld er ; an d after rising, the custo mary admonition was pronounced. The King of WIIRTIMBERG way embraced by the SOVEREIGN and the members of the Royal Family. Each Knight shook hands with his MAJESTY, and congratulated him on his election. The King of WuRTEmBERG then took his station on the Throne to the right of the KING. The Officers of the Order present were the Bishop of WzNctiEsTett, who officiated as Chancellor ; the Registrar ; and Sir TIIO3IAS TYRIV/llrr, the Usher of the Black Rod. The Chapter then broke up. Hie MaJEsTv gave a grand State dinner afterwards to the King of WURTIMIIERG, to which all the Knights who had assisted at the above ceremony were invited ; there were also invited the whole of the Foreign AmbAssadors and Ministers and their ladies, the Cabinet Ministers and their ladies, the Lords-in-waiting . and their ladies, the great Officers of State and their ladies, &c. At seven o'clock his MAJESTY , habited in an Admiral's uniform, preceded by the Lord Chamberlain, the Master of the Horse, the Lord Steward, and Treasurer of the Household, entered the Banqueting-room, where the dinner was served, the King of WURTESISICRG following, having the QUEEN on his arm ; the Dukes of CUMBERLAND, SWIM, GLOUCiSTES, and Prince LEorol.n came after, leading the Duchess of KENT, the Daehess of CUMBERLAND, the Princess AUGUSTA, the Duchess of GLOUCESTER., and the Princess SOPHIA MATILDA, his Royal Highness Prince FRIEDERIDIC of Prussia. The table, on which was the splendid service of gold and silver plate, was placed in the middle of the room. His Illancm eat in the centre; on his right was the king of WURTIMISERG, sad his left the Qurix. The members of the Royal Family, and the other guests, took their seats according to their rank. The five large or-molu chande liers in the Banquetting-room were lighted up on the oc casion. The band of the Coldstream Regiment of Foot Guards was in attendance, and played several fine pieces in the course of the evening.

KING'S THEATItk.—An opera in two acts, by AIEfiCADANTR, called IJonna Caritea, never before performed in this country, was last night represented fur the benefit of Madame LAL►Nna. The scene lies near Toledo, and the drainat:c, incidents take their origin from the refusal of Donna Caritea, Queen o f Spain (madame LALANDIC), to give her hand to Don illfintso, King of Portugal (Signor. DONZELLI), who determines , to obtain it through the force of arms. As a musical composition, this opera is by no means destitute of merit; but it dues not exhibit a single trait of genius, and it bears too close a resemblance to some of the composer's other works. In the first act, however, there are some clever things, to which the excellent singing of Madame Maultears and Madame LALANDE gave great tiled. All the dramatis persona exerted their best abilities, and we question whe thei it bas been beard to greater advantage on any pre vious occasion. If it has, on the whole, failed to plow, it certainly was not through any want of ability , to do it justice. liosstxr's opera, L'lnganno Felice, was after nude performed, followed by a part of Maigniello, REVIEW IN HYDE PARK, From the publicity given announcing his Majesty's in tention of reviewing 'the Household and other troops, with a brigade of artillery, in Hyde Park, yesterday morn ing, crowds of people began to collect as early as ten o'clock. The day was particularly propitious for the sight, the sun lending a splendour to the polished cuirasses of the Life Guards, and the glittering bayonets of the infantry ; and the multitude assembled on the occasion was immense. We doubt whether ever tournament, in the days of chive', y, when Knight met Knight in the tented field, attracted so many spectators. For full two hours ere the review com menced, Piccadilly, Grosvenor-street, and Oxford-street presented a !vatting mass of human beings anxiously pressing forward to the spot. The Borough and Lambeth poured forth a stream of people over Westminster bridge ; the City and the northern 'parts of the metropolis lent their portion to swell the tide which flowed onward to wards the attracting point. The western outskirts were not wanting in their tributary currents. Numbers of the gentle sex, ill-fitted to undergo the fa tigues even of a review day, with a burning► sun over head almost as scorching as is experienced withing the tropics, left their homes to witness the dazzling splendours ; and, from their joy.lit countenances, as the troops marched by in cadence to the martial music, it was obvious that they considered the sight, with all its concomitant troubles, cheaply earned. The ground was kept by the 9th Lancers. We over heard an old infantry serjeant telling his comrade that this duty would have been better executed had it been intrusted to troops more accustomed to London duties. Certain it is that several person., among whom were women, felt the inconvenience of a horse's hoof. One female was carried away severely injured in the foot, in a fainting condition. It ought, however, to be stated that the crowd forced their way beyond the boundary lines, although repeatedly cau tioned by the soldiers and the police. There were, it was ' said, 500 policemen on duty in the park, under their con ductors and inspectors ; among the latter were several who wore Waterloo medals, obtained at that memorable victory. Besides several booths which were erected in the vici nity of Cumberland-gate, crowded with spectators, who bad paid liberally for the accommodation,lhe windows and roofs of the houses, from Hyde-park corner to the upper end of Oxford -street, were occupied with company view ing the animating scene at that distance. The trees along the same line, within the park, bad likewise their guests ; indeed so numerous were the visitera under the shady ca nopy, that branches, too heavily laden, as with fruit, bent under the superincutnbent weight; or, as the snow, slid.- ing front the overburdened tree, so did several spectators gently descend from the lower branches to the ground, without any serious inconvenience. We regret, however, to add, that in another pert of the Park a poor man fell from a lofty branch of a tree, and was killed. Numerous were the slighter casualties; such as bruised limbs and in jured feet. When the review had terminated, within a little clump of trees, near the statue of Achilles, a crowd was reposing. stretched upon the grass, shielded from the rays of the sun, and enjoying themselves by partaking of refreshment which they had prudently supplied. A gen tleman, on passing these groups, jocularly said to his friends, calling their attention to the circumstance, " Be hold an oasis in the desert!" The troops were on the ground ready to receive his Majesty at ten o'clock. The whole were under the com mand of General Viscount Combermere, who accompanied the King, and both of whom were dismounted, sur rounded by their numerous staff officers. The King of Wurtemberg, Prince George of Cumberland, Prince Frederick of Prussia (we believe), and the Duke of Sussex, were near his Majesty duricg the whole of the review, which occupied about two hours. The cavalry were formed into brigades, under the command of General Sir Hus►ey Vivian, and the infantry into two brigades, under Major-General Nl:Donnell, one of the latter brigades being under Colonel Woodford ; the other under Colonel Clitheroe. There was likewise a brigade of artillery. The ground was so limited that it was impossible for so numerous a body of troops to execute any regular manoeuvres. The following are the troops which ware engaged in t h e re vi e w :—..Two troops of Horse Artillery, with three guns each; two batteries of Foot Artillery, with three guns each ; commanded by Colonel Webber Smith. The cavalry consisted of the let and 2d Life Guards; the Royal Horse Guards (Blue); the 14th Light Dragoons; and the sth Lancers. The infantry consisted of the Ist, 2d, and 3d battalions of the Grenadier Guards ; the 2d battalion of the Coldstream ; and the Ist and 2d battalions of the 3d Guards. The troops were formed in close co.. lumn of quarter distance, and saluted his Majesty on his taking up his position. They then marched round in slow and quick time, in divisions of companies and troops, opening their ranks, and saluting as they passed the King- The cavalry ,then passed in files of , three deep, whilst the infantry in the rear forrned line. As soon as the cavalry bad concluded, they formed into columns on the left, whilst the infantry marched up is slow time at open order. On the centre reaching within a short dis. tance the Royal station, the whole line was halted, and presented arms lowering the colours of the respective regiments. They then shouldered arms, closed ranks, and faced to the right about, and formed into solid 'quern of regiments, to receive the attack of eavalry. The cavalry, which had been formed into grand divisions, whilst the infantry were retreating, now advanced, and passed through the intervals thus caused by the infantry forming into solid squares. The cavalry then deployed into line, and advanced, taking up the ground which the infantry had previously held, and saluted his Majesty, the colours being lowered,' and the bands playing the first part of the national anthem. The artillery now fired a salute. By this time the infantry in the rear had deployed into line from close column of grand divisions, and ordered arms. The different Aid.de-camps were then directed to inform the officers commanding the - respective brigades, that his Majesty was highly satisfied with the soldier.like appearance of the troops. An order was then given for the regiments to march off the ground. As soon as it was known that the review was concluded, the crowd near Cumberland.gate rushed in and broke the lino of constables and soldiers. In a few minutes the whole of the interior was occupied by spectators to the first rank of the cavalry, who had now dismounted. The multitude that watch'd athr, Rejected from the ranks— were now allowed to take possession of that portion of the ground which had been allotted to persons who had the privilege of standing aloof during the review, unmolest e d by soldiers and police on till one hand, and the crowd on the other. In this part, which was a strip of ground extending the whole length of one side of the square, in which the evolutions were performed, many officers in uniform, who had no command, were seen; and the wives, and daughters, and friends of military men. The Queen was in a carriage at the rear of his Ma. jesty's Staff, and had a comp'ete view of the imposing sight. The Duke of Cumberland, the Duke of Gloucester, and the Duke of Wellington, were each at the head of their respective regiments, taking part in the military move. ments, as Colonels only, and nut in their higher characters as Field Marshals. It was expe:ted that the infantry would have fired ; but that was nut the case, and many were somewhat disappointed. The crowd finding the review was concluded, cont. menced retreating to the different outlets from the Pink, which were literally choaked up with persons anxious to quit the place. The supplies of porter were drawn upon to a considerable extent at all the public-houses within the route of the gratified viaiters, who passed homewards, wearied, probably, but satisfied with the magnificence of the sight. His Majesty, accompanied by the Queen, visited Apr ley House as soon as the review wa4 over, its noble pro. prietor having quitted the ground in time to receive them. A splendid collation was prepared, and a large party of Nobility invited to meet the Royal visitere, among whom were the principal of his Majesty's Ministers. A portion of the multitude on quitting the Park, through the gate way, remained opposite the Duke of Wellington's, in the hope of being gratified with a sight of the King and Queen, and were not disappointed. Her Majesty pre sented herself on the balcony, being handed from the centre window by the Duke of Wellington, and was re ceived. with loud acclamations. She wore a mourning dress, and a white crape bonnet trimmed with black. On retiring his Majesty appeared on the balcony accompanied by his Noble host, and was likewise loudly cheered. Their Majesties quitted Apsley House shortly after two o'clock, fur St. James's PAWN. The Noble visitors then pre sently separated. (r•xorc A CORRESIVIIDENT.) The company in Hyde-park, yesterday, assembled to behold the Royal review, were remark..bly genteel, consi dering the motley group collected together, and their or derly and good-humoured behaviour was the thente•of general observation. Towards Kensington-gardens, at that part of the park where the deer congregate, there was a select but crowded multitude, consisting - chiefly of those collected from the western suburbs; and, as the ground, at such point, gradually rises, the elevation of forded an excellent coup d:ttil of the review. Without crowding, indeed while company wet., seated on t h e gra ss, the spectators Oil this spot could, see clearly and satisfactorily the =muerte of the different horo and foot regiments; the former exercising and, in companies, galloping round the park; and the latter taking various lines, and then promptly falling into squares, &c. This distant view was exceedingly beautiful, the eye being enabled to contemplate all the regiments at once. The spectators thronged, however, even here on the out posts, as closely as they could ; while hundreds of others crowded • into the trees at this part of the park— and many persons did so with an alarming and thoughtless intrepidity, it being no uncommon sight to behold - men and boys on the uppermost branches, perched like so many crows, or wood-pigeons. The wonder was that the slender branches bore them Amongq the soldiers considerable inconvenience was said to have been felt. owing to the excessive heat of the day (and a more gloriously fine one was never seen in Hyde-park), and many of those who had to bear the mountainous hairy caps, or the oppressive helmets and cuirasses, under such a burning sun, received uselessly enough, the sympathy of thousands of spectators. About one o'clock, toward the close of the review, considerable consternation and anxiety were produced on beholding a horse, without a rider, pro ceeding wildly in front of the Blues, as if he had a " Mazeppa" lashed to his back. The Blues were, at the same time, is companies, in full gallop along the line of foot soldiers proceeding as if making their way direct for Kensington gardens from Oxford-street corner. The horse had thrown his rider, and it was with considerable difficulty that the animal was caught. Two horsemen followed him closely, and soon afterwards brought hint back to his rider, who, with a party, remained under the shade of a large tree, at the lower extremity of the park. As the rider did not remount his horse, it was inferred that the accident to the man had been more serious than the mere inconvenience of having been thrown. Anxiety regarding that object was diverted by a large party of artillery, with about 20 pieces of field artillery, suddenly breaking line, coming out of the great area in the park, preserved in order by Lancers, &c., and within which the review took place; and this extended party of artillery, in two lines, came at full trot down the hill, sled proceeded to the walls of Kensington-gardens, where they ranged and stationed themselves. The view, per haps, was as interesting and characteristic of military bustle and warfare as any thing tiat took place during the whole day.. After they had been stationed under the walls for about half an hour, they suddenly commenced a smart and irregular firing, which they maintained with amazing activity and force for about a quarter of an hour or twenty minutes. This was understood to he the climax of the day's proceedings--to announce the closing scene of the review, and the preparations for the King's departure from the field. The crowds at the greatest distance were startled by the sudden and actively-continued bursts of the cannon, and, hardly believing the evidence of their senses, they started from the ranks of the review's outposts to see the cannon fired off! Before the feu-de-joie bad finished, the hill, which had previously been a snug, select, and genteel re treat, became the most crowded part of the park. The buttes in the direction of Cumberland-gate and Hyde-park corner were then distinctly heard, as if his Majesty were retiring ; and they were at intervals answered by loud, enthusiastic, and long-continued cheers. The artillery soon afterwards moved off; passing amongst the trees by the powder magazine, and across the new bridge at the park end of Kensington-gardens. Considerable portions of the foot soldiers left the ground by nearly the same route, pro ceeding to Kensington, &c., where they are quartered. The Blues (who had shone very conspicuously in the field) quitted the ground at the Knightsbridge Barracks' side of Hyde-park, proceeded up the grand ride, and thence through Kensington to Hammersmith, where they are quartered pro tem. Several of their officers were so fatigued, owing to the excessive heat, that they were glad, after the review, to quit their horses, and be take them to chaises, by which means they proceeded along the high road to Hammersmith. The day was amazingly propitious for the review; a finer could not well have favoured William IV., nor could a hotter have oppressed the troops. Enthusiastic as was the whole Reese, even the most loyal experienced a warmer reception than he wished. A more imposing scene, or a more cheering sight, it was the general remark of the Saxe genarians in particular, had not been beheld in Hyde-park since the memorable day on which George 111. reviewed the ♦olunteer corps of London, Westminster, and the suburbs ; and it was added that the enthusiasm of that day which saw hundreds of thousands assembled who were ready to resist " invasion," was not surpassed by the feel ings of the hundreds of thousands yesterday congregated in Hyde•park to do honour to a Constitutional King, and to greet him with heartfelt cheers who is ready to mix with, and to be one of, the people. When popularity—when the good-will of the people, may be so easily secured, it is truly wonderful that our Kings are not the most popular people in the nation. The of of the heat yesterday, in Hyde-park, were such that the various liquids, fruits, Esc., conveyed thitler, were consumed, and, strange to say, in all directions nothing could be seen but empty bottles, cans, and baskets. Amongst the trees which form the very beautiful retreat of the deer, on the hill near Kensington-gardens, and which command so excellent and easy a sight of the re• view, as already described, there is a tine memorable and picturesque spring. Though Crown property, this was very unceremoniously turned to popular account, without any licence from his Majesty, permission from the Com missioners of Woods and Forests, or warraant from tl►e Board •f Green Cloth ; literally, thousands paraded under the trees there to escape from the sun's burning heat, and rushed towards the spring to gain some momentary relief; while others, who had cans and glasses, supplied their cans with Purest Entire from the spring, and there sold it at a halfpenny per glass ! It was curious to hear the various venders, with their cries of " Spring-water a halfpenny per glass!" and as curious to see the rapidity, dangerous as was the beverage, taken while the parties were so hot, with which customers crowded round and bauyht spring. water in the open park, at a halfpenny per glass! Never, however, was money more cheerfully expended. The KING and QUEEN have intimated it to be their intention to honour Colonel and Mrs. Cu.rrrrra o with their presence, at a breakfast, in a few days, at 800- ton lionse, near Brentforti. His MAJESTY has expressed an intention of encouraging the home manufactures ; and we congratulat e our neighbours, the manufacturers of gloves, upon the fact of the Kira having within these few days cast aside his French kid gloves, and substituted Woodatock doe ; and at this time one of the Woodstock manufacturers has an order on hand for a quantity for his MAattsrv's own use.— Oxford Journal. The most amiable trait in his present MA JESTY'S character is the condescension and kindness he evinces towards his old friends. This is most strikingly exemplified by the visit his 111AJarrir was pleased to ho nour Lady ItAnNa an with on Saturday last, when his MaJcsTy, in the most gracious and condescending man ner, sat and chatted nearly an hour with the widow of his late friend, Sir F. Ihnisartn.—M orn i ng P a p er . lbe KING is astonishing every body, not only by hie affability that truest sign of a gentleman._ but by his admirable division of time and activity. The first exclamation was—" flow public the KING makes himself !" It now is the universal wonder—" I wonder how the KING finds time to do so much, and to he at so many places !" The truth is, an active mind and a good heart can find time for every thing; such a disposition seems to coin the time whenever the opportunity requires ii.—..aforning Paper. His IVIAsEsTY's coat' hours are already having a cheering died nn the manners of the fashionable, world. It i s qu i te refreshing to read of no fewer than' five or six distinguished individuals being up to receive parties to breakfast. The Duke of SUSSEX, who took his station on the right or Alinisterial aide, during the Kr wo's presence on Friday, remained in the House of Lords some time after his 111aJestr had quitted it, apparently greatly en joying the friendly character of the scene--fur the KiNtl'S.. frankness and urbanity gave increased ease to all present —all seemed to think that they were not kept at a " freezing di s t ance. " The Duke of St. ALBANS, on Friday, walked for some time on the leads in front of the House of Lords, and with hie Peer's robes on, to watch for the approach of his carriage. The Duchess, accompanied by Min BEAUCLERK (we believe), were accommodated with seat* in the House of Lords. We leant, through a private channel, that re solutions have been taken by the conductors of the prin cipal London theatres, to exclude /Wit PATON front their establishments. Sir Gaoling SMART'S expression, in alluding to this subject a few days ago, was, " the have done with her for ever."--Rdinburph Advertiser. We understand the Town's Fishing* have been doing very well fur some time. On Tuesday last, nine. teen salmon were caught, and about 70 grilses, the whole weighing 740 lbe.

The betting yesterday was confined to the rases at Brighton and Goodwood—the latter in particular created universal interest, fro►n the high character of the horses, the great value of the stakes, and the additional attraction given them by the patronage of his Majesty, who is con. siilered almost safe to win the Gold Cup, one of the moat splendid prizes ever run for.

Yesterday was a grand day among the amateurs and ad; mires of the sports on the river, in consequence of the number of matches which had long been announced to take place on that day; and at an early period of the morning the boat builders' yards at Stangate, Lambeth, and Vauxhall, were besieged by amateurs who were anxious to obtain boats to witness the contests, which were rendered more attractive by the extreme fineness of the weather. Perhaps on no former occasion was there a greater number of boats on the river in any one day than there was yesterday ; and the Themes, from Battersea to Blackwell, presented a scene of animation of a truly en livening and gay description. The contests which took place were as follow : SAILING MATCH FOR A PETER-BOAT. Yesterday, the Lord Mayor, accompanied by the Recor der, Aldermen, Sheriffs, &e. proceeded down the river, in the city state barge, to hold a Court of Conservancy, upon which occasion his Lordship gave a new Peter boat to be sailed for by free fishermen of the Thames and Medway. Those boats which had been entered to sail for the gift of the Lord Mayor came to anchor at their respective stations, at Blackwell, as early as eight o'clock yesterday morning, with their numbers at the peak of their sails, arranged ac cording to order, No. 1 being next the shore on the Mid dlesex side, and the other numbers extending nut there from across the river in due form. About half-past ten the following boats were started, to sail round a boat moored off Erith, and back again to the Crown and Sceptre Tavern, Greenwich:-- Nos. Boats' Names. Owners. Belonging to. I.

On arriving off Bow Creek, however, a breeze sprung up, and the Thomas and Arabella went a-head, the James and Elizabeth and the Four Brothers shortly following in the leading boat's wake. In this manner the above three boats rounded the distance boat at Erith : the others, owing to the tide having swung, not being enabled to double the boat in question. They drifted up in the limner above-mentioned, viz.—The Thomas and Arabella first, the James and Taizabeth second, and the Four Brothers third. T. Pridmore, the owner of the first boat, became entitled to the neat and very prettily rigged-out Peter-boat, worth about 80/. ; the owner of the James and .Ilizabeth, as the second boat, received 11. ss. ; and the owner of the third boat 15s. Three half-crowns were ordered to be distri buted to each of the owners of the remaining ten boats, at Mews. Searle's, Stangate, this day (Tuesday.) The Lord Mayor, &c., at the conclusion of the match, held a Court of Conservancy at the Crown and Sceptre, Greenwich ; after which they partook of white bait, and a variety of the luxuries of the season. GREENWICH CORONATION REGATTA. In consequence of the extreme fineness of the weather, the entire front of the town of Greenwich, the river, and its banks, were yesterday crowded with spectators, who congregated to witness the double attraction of the Peter. boat sailing match, and the annual contest among the young Greenwich watermen, fur a new Wherry and minor prizes given by the inhabitants. The latter were rowed fur in five heats by the undermentioned watermen John Raine Blue I . Thomas Everson.... Green Matthew Jeves Yeßol. Richard Watkins... Orange Thomas Bass...— Red William Loader..." Pink. The first heat was contested for by 13Iue, Yellow, and Red, front the Royal Hospital Stairs, twice along the whole front of the town, which was won by Slue. For the second heat, Green, Orange, and :Oink con tended, when Green was declared the winner. Orange, Pink, Yellow, and Red, as the second and third men in each of the above heats, rowed for the third heat, at the conclusion of which they came in as fol lows %--Pink first, Orange second, Red third, and Yellow fourth. The two first men of the first and second heats, being entitled to row with the first and second men of the third heat, Blue, Pink, Green, and Orange, accordingly took their respective stations to decide which two should row the fifth heat for the grand prize. This heat excited ge neral interest, and it was fully expected by many that Green would be thrown out. The latter, however, had been takeO in tow, trained, and brought up to the scratch in regular tip-top condition, by the worthy host of the Salutation Tavern, Garden-stairs, and by him " booked to win and nothing else." The heat proved a good one, and at the conclusion of an arduous struggle, the men came in as follows :—Green first, Blue second, Orange third, and Pink fourth. . . Green anti Blue, as th e t wo fi rs t men of the fourth beat, took their stations below Garden-stairs, and were started down with the tide about half-past seven to row the fifth beat for the wherry. Green, from the starting place, went away from Blue in good style, and maintained the lead throughout; and on arriving at the prize wherry, which was stationed off tits Hospital, he leaped into her amidst enthusiastic cheering. The wagermen were at the conclusion of the match towed in procession as they won the prizes, along the front of the town, preceded by a band of music. The prizes were distributed as follows : :£ lb Thomas Everson, a wherry, valued at '.l 0 John Raine cash Richard Watkins ditto William Loader ditto Thomas Bass ditto Matthew Jeve5,,......... ..... ditto The houses contiguous to the scene of action were thronged throughout the evening, and hilarity and good humour were the older of the night. LAMBETH REGATTA, This annual Regatta, which was postponed from the 13th instant, in conorquence of the lamented death tif hi. late Majesty, took place yesterday; and, 44 on all preview , otTasions, attracted a vast astieml.lige of spectators. The contest was for a Wherry and other prizes, and were rowed for by the following watermen, who ply at Litrnta:ti and' the Surrey side of Westminster Bridge, in three heats .1. Carey, W. Roles J.

Though Ministers prudently abstain from wasting their strength on places where tke suffrage is widely diffused, they are by no means idle at the present moment. In Scotland, candidates are relieved from the necessity of canting; they take it for granted that a Minister is, us a matter of course, entitled to the support of a Scotch Member, whatever be , his measures. Thus Mr. M'Leod, in addressing the freeholders of the county of Inverness, admits that the claims of Mr. Charles Grant to the suppoit of the freeholders are so superior to his own, in eveey other respect than his being a Ministerial man, " That under ordinary circumstance, (he says) I.should have considered it most respectful to you to have with drawn my pretensions on the present occasion; but I than fail in my duty to you, to myself, aid, shove all, to thu Administration of the Duke of Wellington, if I did not ' afford you an opportunity of expressing your opinion soon the events which have subsequently occurred. It is no longer a struggle of private interest; you are now called on to prove that you feel that confidence in his Majesty's Government with which !believe that you are impressed." This is plain language. Mr. M'Leod reminds us of the Scotch Member, who very naively obseried, " During the many years I have been in Parliament, the speeches I have heard have often altered my conviction, but they have never altered my vote."— In this pert of the island men take occasionally a good deal of' pains to appear more independent of Ministers than they actually are. But in Scotland the great point with a Member is to convince the freeholders that he is thoroughly dependent—th a t he has the regard of Ministers ; and accordingly, Mr. M'Leotl, to satisfy the freeholders that in voting for him they will not vote for one who can obtain nothing for them, takes care to have totnething like a testimonial from the Duke of Wellington.— Though he could have franked his addresi, being at the time a Member for an English borough, he had them 'circulated in covers, franked " Peel."— We understand the non. Gentleman's usual fines. Lion to a voter is, " What do you want ? I can get it for you .at once." WS brings polities within a very narrow compass. Ministerial responsibility means distribution of public money. to thick and thin voters. Mr. M`Leod is said to pledge his Grace very freely to the Inverness freeholderts,•— So much for the friends of Ministers in the North ! Morning Chronicle. Jefferson, in one of his letters, observes, that— " To prrserve the independence of the people we must not let our rulers load us with perpetual debt. We Must make our election between economy and liberty, or profu sion and servitude. If we run into such debts as that we must be taxed in our meat and in our drink, in our recces series and our comfort*, is our labours and our amuse ment*, for our callings and our trestle, as the people of England ate, our people, like them, must come to labour sixteen hours in the twenty-four, give the earnings of fifteen of these to the Government for their detits and daily expellees, and the sixteenth being insufficient to afford us bread, we must live as they now do, en oatmeal and po tatoes ; have no time to think—no Means of calling the managers to account ; but be ;{lad to obtain subsistence by hiring ourselves to rivet their chains on the necks of our fellow sufferers. Our landholders, ton, like theirs, tetiiuing, indeed, the tiOr and stewardship of estates crelril theirs, but hell really in trust fir the Treasury, intrst wander like theirs, in foreign countries, and be contented with penury, obscurity, exile, and the glory of the nation. This example reads to us the salutary lessen, that private fortunes are destroyed by public as well as by private ex travagance. And this is the tendency of all human go vernments." But this is only one side of the question. To preserve our independence, we must not, he says, let our rulers load us with' perpsitind debt. In this country, we owe the present dawning of independ ence to the magnitude of our debt. If the debt were removed to-morrow, we should run the same career of extravagance, we should have Ministers lavishing the resources of the nation on their friends, and venal Members vieing with each other in bareness and subsoil iency. When there is nothing farther to be taken from the people, there is a check to corruption. Some Constitutions display their excellence in pre• venting improper expenditure; the good qnstlitieS of other Constitutions first appear when all is already expended. 'the British Constitution appears to most advantage when the people are labouring teen hours a day, on meal and water, and the land lords are forced to hide their heeds in exile.— Morning CAroniCle. It may not be generally known, that Sir James Scarlett piqued himself in right of his office, as the King's first Law Adviser, on carrying, its the just closed Session, the Administration of J us ti ce Hill , which, as it left the Lower Douse, was altogether his handywork. Sir Robert Peel was disposed to indulge the Learned Geetleman's vanity ; but the Dignitaries in the Upper House did not plove equally complaisant ; end the Bill was sent back In he Commons, at the last hour, with amenihneute so numerous that, as Lard Durham described Omni, scarcely a single line of the or i g i nal draught re. mained' without change. Under these circumstances, Sir James Scarlett had no alternatiVe, but either to abandon the measure for the present, or to stultify* himself, by adopting the oonoxious amendments. He chose the latter, and accorti. ingly moved that they should be cons e nt e d to ; adding, in his usual they vein, u deelai a . tion, that he would have the Bill act to rights in the next Parliament ; though with. what 1461111fallete we know not, of having then accorded to him a more imperative sway in the resolvesof Govern ment than at the present period.' In this stage of the business, however, ryas exhibited the extraordi nary spectacle of a direct collision between the two great Law Officers of the Crown—the Solicitor- General avowing himself of Counsel for the amend. mews to which the Attorney-General was opposed. There are persons who, regarding this symptom of Sir James Scarleit's exclusion front the concilii* secretioribus of Ministers, predict his early retire. ntent from office ; but they are mistaken. lie has long since cat off for himself all retreat ; he has no friends to fall back upon, and has nothing. now for it but to put up with such treatment us he may re eels%) from the powers Oust be ; nor is there any servant of the Isihninittration regarded by thr young 'Whig Nobles and !ceders with feelings of more disdainful aversion than the once burly Legu- leius of the Opposition Beaches. Such situation is, no doubt, to a man of his temper, suffie;ently galling; but Lord Rosalyn has not been comfortuble, nor will the Duke's last accession, Lord Juicy, los at ease, nor any man who rosy be in like manner de• tached from his ancient coansetiona, wiles% a eaniii lerable modileation ;of the Government shall take place.
