,e' / kers'aining its ground against the factious. Without Royal authority France would soon fall under their brutal despotism ; whereas, by royalty, France will Preserve among the nations that high and honour able rank which she had lost by the crimes of anarchy, but which have been restored by legiti macy. The list of the Presidents of the Colleges presents a mass of respectable names. No colour of Sound opinion is excluded from it : every socialln terest is represented in it; from the Peer and Marshal of France, to the mere Councillor of Prefecture, the Magistracy, and commerce, industry, and property. ---Quotidienne. " The King has spoken to France, and the senti ments of the Ministers of the Bth of August, already so repeatedly expressed in the speech of March 2, in answer to the Address, and in the Ordinances of May 19, have received a new de - relopement, still More clear and energetic, by the Proclamation of June 13. How noble and how generous is the lan guage of the sovereign ! What an admirable com bination of imposing dignity and inexhaustible good ness ! The Bourbons have ever known how to address Frenchmen. The present monarch especi ally, who possesses that eloquence of the soul which ever makes its way to the heart, whilst like a father he declares his sorrow, how like a king does he express his indignation ! His very bowels are moved by the errors of some mistaken or ungrate ful children ; his honour has been severely wounded by the insults offered to his crown by his rebellious subjects; while by turns he gives utterance to his affliction or his anger, he warms or reproves, exhorts or commands. A chamber, or rather a majority, the offspring of a shameful alliance be tween defection and revolt, has misconstrued the intentions and prerogatives of their sovereign ; his pwerful hand has broken the unmanageable machine which refused to afford the concurrence which the Charter had prescribed; and when he appeals to all France not to judge between the rebels and himself, because his rights, sacred long before.they were written in the Charter, are not sub ject to any tribunal, but to give him loyal and faith ful deputies, such as will not refuse to concur with the Throne in accomplishing the good he has in con templation for us, he is desirous of being listened to as a father addressing his children—as a king Making known his will to his people. He will not yield up his rights, nor shrink from the performance .of his duties. Strong in the purity of his own conscience and intentions, seeking nothing but the welfare of his people, and certain of being able to Perform all he has promised, he is neither silent as to what he desires, nor as to what he has sworn. With the same firmness and the same candour he declares his unchangeable resolutions, and repeats the oaths he took at Rheims.— Universel. For the first time our Ministers, when having to decide between two bad measures, have not chosen the worst. They have published a procla mation, but have added a countersign. We wish one thing to be remarked—namely that the Minis ters have but the same uniform system in the pro clamation of to-day, as in all they have written, or caused to be written. They declare that they are within the limits of the Charter ; that it is not they who attack it, but those who refuse to form a ma jority in their favour ; and that they will not yield. This amounts to saying, that by repelling the oppo siti2nt and believing themselves insulted by it, they are within the Charter; that by refusing to yield to the majority, they are within the Charter; that by threatening to resist the majority with an unchange able resolution, they are within the Charter. The electors, satisfied as much as the Prince de Polignac can be that France owes every thing to the Govern ment of the Charter, will judge who are the parties that really deviate from it, and do justice accord i►ngly. We are too well acquainted with the rights of the Government to complain of the list of Presi dents. The formation of this list belongs to them, and it is perfectly natural that they should nominate their own creatures. The great number of Peers, Lieutenant-generals, and Members of the General Councils of the Departments, is an important fea ture. Many Deputies attached to the Government have declined accepting the Presidency, because they apprehended the loss of the favour of the electors by appearing to enjoy that of the Govern _ men t,—National: " What is the King's proclamation, issued in a form seldom employed, with a signature which merits our respect ? It is nothing but a Ministerial act, countersigned by the Prince de Polignac : it is a statement of the grounds of the ordinance, appoint ing the Presidents of the Colleges, countersigned by the Count de Peyronnet. What do Messrs. de Po lignac and de Peyronnet say more than what they have repealed a hundred times ? Instead of a news paper article, it is an harangue ; this is the only dif ference. In reality, it is a new censure pronounced by Ministers against the address which refused to them the concurrence of the Chamber of Deputies. We remark, - that out of the 181 members who voted against the address, only 91 are appointed to preside either at the colleges of departments or those of arrondissements. The other Presidents styled Ancien Deputes belong to former assemblies, especially to that in which the 300 friends of M. de Villele fought so valiantly. Thus, 90 of those who voted against the address, besides the three Blinisters, have not been appointed Presidents.— Constitution:el. " The Proclamation is founded wholly upon an idea which Ministers have been endeavouring to inculcate these three months, but which is found, on a slight examination, to rest on a very slender basis ; the Chamber haVe misconstrued the King's intentions; they have refused their concurrence; they have insulted the King. Although we may regret that the proclamation, to the electors brings the Crown too directly into the debate, by speaking of insult, and passes rather too severe a censure upon the last Chamber, which may be again returned, yet we may congratulate Ministeri upon having ab stained from that menacing tone which they adopted on other occasions. Upon the whole, the question comes to this—does France place confidence in the Ministiy, and is she desirous of being governed by that Ministry ? Does she disown the mistrust and disquietude which the last Chamber expressed in her name, and does she wish for a Chamber ready to vote as M. de Polignac would have it ? This is the question to be decided by the electors—the Pro clamation has not changed it.—Courrier Francais. " The Proclamation announced with so much pomp has appeared at list. It has the countersign of a responsible Minister, as it could not appear , without it. Ministers were aware of this, and M. de Polignac decided upon signing the Proclamation. It cannot be said that the heart of the King, his love for his people, and his high wisdom, are evident in these repeated assurances of maintaining the Char ter and the institutions founded by it. We derive no information from the proclamation cn this sub j ect. Mistrust always stops at the foot of the Throne. There only love and confidence in the magnanimity of a great Prince can prevail. To suppose that France stood in need of hearing, as it were, a repetition of the coronation oaths, would be offering an insult both to France and to the King ! Let M. de Polignac consider himself the object of public mistrust—let him not criminally endeavour to ascribe part of it to Royalty—it falls entirely to his lot ! The confidence and love of the people are the King's. We cannot, however, refrain from saying a few words on the unchangeable resolution on the part of the King, who is supposed by the Proclama tion to have resolved never . to change his Ministry. With deep sorrow and respect, we beg to declare that even Kings are f a llibl e . H owev er pure their intentions may be, they may be mistaken and de ceived. If the welfare of the nation, if the public tranquillity, should require that the King should keep his Ministers, he will keep them; if they should require their removal, he will dismiss therm This pious and wise King will not hesitate to admit that he may have been mistaken. To err is the lot of all men ; to acknowledge error, and rect if y it, is the part of great Kings.—Journal des Debuts. " It is then fully admitted on all sides, that the document published by the Maniteur . is only a piece of special pleading, composed by the Ministry to prove tne goodness of their cause to the electors, who are called to sit in judgment on them. This :s regular and legal, and there is nothing to be said igainst it. Let Ministers defend themselves to the utmost; let them protest their attachment to the Charter; let them even treat as calumnies the re ports so generally spread of their aversion to a con stitutional monarchy ; all this is excellent. But there are other things in the Proclamation. It de clares, in terms even more formal than in the answer to the address, I I had a right to reckon upon their concurrence with me in accomplishing the good I had in contemplation : they refused it to me.' This assertion is far from true. We are not, how ever, called upon to disprove it by evidence. The electors will peruse the Address again, and decide between the Chamber and the Prince de Polignac, whether he has not been guilty of treason, by ac cusing the Chamber, in a document invested with the Royal signature, of having refused its concur rence with the King 'and attacked his prerogatives —an imputation calumniously put forth in order to fill the Royal mind with mistrust and enmity to wards the Chamber ; whether he has not been guilty of treason, by persuading the King, through the means of this imposture, to dissolve the Cham ber, and by seeking to excite against it the censure of the people, and particularly of the electors.— Journal du Commerce. " Let us return thanks to the Monarch, who, in suffering the scheme which he has a right to try to be followed up till it is exhausted, signs, constitu tionally, a document which his M; , ,i,- , r3 deca,u l necessary to their system; but in • 1 1 .011 - 1:-..w., all the responsibility of this extra .y act, his high wisdom is certainly shelter. ast the illu sions of his Ministers. The K, _ . cipates the result of the elections; but the s,• axing been set in motion, it must needs termm• • ; course. It is a useful and decisive experiment. t us congra tulate ourselves that this time it h complete. It was the only means of rendering - _petition of it impossible.—Le Temps. " The proclamation has at leng eared. The Government has redeemed its ple.4 ; , 'ut has sub mitted to the countersign. We wil: discuss the propriety of issuing such a political Iment, but can only view it as a mere profession of :th by Mi nisters. Had not this act been signed t ). the Prince de Polignae, we should not have considered it of higher importance; but by investing it with, the or dinary forms, the Minister himself seems tn, have renounced giving it that contra-constitutional' ^ha racter which, in his dreams, he had previously thought of impressing upon it. This proclamation is nothing more than a circular, though the last and the most solemn."—Le Globe. YRICKS OF STOCKS THIS Bank Stock .215k 16 3 per Cent. Red. 9114% 1 3 per Cent.

The following is the Bulletin issued this day— " Windsor Castle, June 18. " The KING slept at intervals during the night. "In other respects his MAJESTY remains in the same state. (Signed) " HENRY HALFORD. " MATTHEW J. TIERNEY." We have received this morning by express a French Paper of yesterday's date, and letters dated Wednebday evening. Under date Leghorn, May 31, some interesting intelligence is commu nicated from Algiers. It appears that the Dey had been regularly acquainted with every, even the most minute particular, regarding the French expedition, and that its sailing from Toulon was well known to him very early after that event. The intelligence was conveyed by his agents, not only by sea, but by land, as in the former it was found difficult to evade the vigilance of the blockading squadron. It was well known that the DEY had received by some secret conveyance several hundred cases filled with Congreve rockets, which had been distributed on several points of the coast. All the flocks had been driven into the interior of the country, and every precautionary measure adopted to prevent the invading army from finding provisions of any kind on its landing. A numerous defensive force had also been raised by putting in requisi tion all the male population from the ages of seventeen to fifty. It is affirmed in the Toulon advices that the letters brought by the Capricieuse must be of more importance than merely announcing the detention of the fleet at Palma from tempestu ous weather, as the Commander of that vessel was closeted for two hours with the Prefect, from whence it is inferred that he was the bearer of some information of moment, which, if not committed to his letters, he was charged to communicate verbally. Twelve transports, un der escort of two ships of war, had sailed from Toulon for Palma. Letters had been received at Toulon from Tunis, by which it appears that the French Vice-Consul there was industriously engaged in obtaining agents to circulate Proclamations to the Algerine Regency, calling upon the Moors to receive the French as friends, and supply them with provisions, &c. He had also en gaged several interpreters, and it was reported that numerous bands of Arabs who had been compelled, by the threats of the DEY, to take up arms, had, on his assurances, and on the pro mise of the protection of the French, been in duced to retire into the interior again. We consider this intelligence, however, as very apochryphal. It was thought at Toulon that TAIIIR PAcuA would remain until the landing of the expedition on the African shore, when he would return to Constantinople. This express also furnishes us with some ad ditional information from Odessa, dated the 27th ult. The Porte is said to have reaped great advantages from the mission of lIALIL PAcizA. To prevent a remission of the tribute, this functionary had agreed, in the name of the Sultan, that the Russians should retain indefinite possession of Si!istria, the Porte engaging to furnish provisions for the garrison ; this was in addition to Erzeroum being given up. Count ORLOFF was expected to return home when HALIL PACIIA reached Constantinople, but M. DE RIBEAUPIERRE would remain. General DIEEITSCH would return to Odessa after the oayment, :either in money or territory, of the second instalment. The frigate L' Armide, which left Navarin on the 19th of May, had arrived at Toulon after a Passage of sixteen days. The resignation of the Prince of SAXE COBURG was said not to be then known at that place, on the contrary his arrival was anxiously expected. The express also furnishes us with intelligence from Port-au-Prince, from which it appears, under date 22d April, that a llaytian Com• missioner had been recently appointed to proceed to France. Another account states that the PRESIDENT would make another attempt to conclude the negotiation by sending two Com missioners, Messrs. ROUENNEZ and VILLEVA.. LERIA, tO Paris. The French Funds at the close on Wednes day were as follow : Five per Cents, 103 f. 60e. 55c. 60e. 63e. 60c. ; Four andiHalf per Cents, 99f. 80c. ; Four per Cents, 99f. 25c.; Three per Cents, 791. 30c. 45c. 40c. 30c. 40c. 60c. 65c.; Bank Shares, 1870. Exchange on London, one month, 251. 50c. ; ditto, three months, 25f. 35c. A letter from Parir speaking of the approach ' or Prince of SWEDEN to t ..4‘ the Prussian States Gazette affirms that his Royal Highness had repeatedly expressed a wish to visit the Russian capital, with a view to a personal acquaintance with the EMPEROR. Circumstances had hither to prevented the execution of this design ; but the present moment, when the EMPEROR had just given peace to his empire after such glorious campaigns, was deemed particularly favourable for informing his MAJESTY of the wish of his Royal Highness. The Swedish Ambassador at the Russian Court was accordingly instructed to inquire confidentially at what time the visit of the Crown Prince of SWEDEN would be most agreeable to his MAJESTY. The answer re turned through Count NESSELRODE was, that the visit of the Crown Prince would at all Inc times be received with the greatest pleasure, at the same time a more particular invitation was given for the 13th July, the EMPRESS'S birth day. We have been favoured with the perusal of a file of the Hobart Town Gazette, received by the last arrival. The dividend of the Bank of Van Dieman's Land, would be something more than 16 per cent. per annum ; and Derwent Bank would divide to the same amount. An attempt was making to open a new market for that valuable article of colonial produce, wool ; twenty bales had been packed up for the Chins market. The price of wheat at Hobart Town continued to average about 7s. per bushel. The weather had been very hot, and a large extent of corn had ripened so fast, that it was feared it would be lost for want ofsufficient time to get it in. These Papers contain a very interesting account of the present state of St. Paul's Island, in the Northern Ocean, discovered by VLAM 'NG, a Dutch navigator, in 1697. It is a small island situated in lat. 38. 44. S. long. 77. 53 E. of Greenwich, about 12 miles long and five broad. It is covered with long luxuriant grass, and the soil is a rich loam, but with neither tree nor shrub upon it. There were abundance of pigs on the island, and a few mice, but no other known quadruped. All the birds of temperate regions resorted there for in cubation : the albatross, peaho, molly hawk, all the procallarea, tropic birds, the penguin, &c. In December, and the three following months, whales generally abound round the island. There are hot springs of salt water at 210 de grees. Convict ships, having had a long:passage, would find it recompense them for the loss of time, to touch here for fish. There was no recent appearance of volcanic eruption—no lava ; but on the causeway forming the barrier are lumps of spongy stone, evidently the result of fire in the olden times Smoke is sometimes observed to issue from a hill forming the bison, but no fire. The Norther n Whig states that a circular is now distributing through the county of Armagh, with the view of getting up Orange processions on the ensuing 12th of July. We hope the good sense of the Protestants in the North of Ireland will induce them to discountenance this very absurd attempt on the part of a few factious, and, no doubt, interested individuals, at reluming the more than half-extinguished embers of civil and religious discord. Catholics and Protestants are now subjects of the same liberal Con stitution, possessing equal privileges, and bound together by the same common ties of fellowship ; why, then, should they break each other's heads ? Why commemorate with riot, drunkenness, and insult, the most disastrous epoch of their mutual dissensions ? Surely if there be any commemoration. it should be of the glorious day of their reconciliation—of that day whose memorable close heard an overwhelming majority of British Peers proclaim that the Catholic should be free, and cease to be a foe to the Protestant ! DEATII OF THE EARL OF HARCOURT. We regret that we have this day to announce t he death of that gallant and distinguished Officer Field Marshal the Earl of HARCOURT, who expired yesterday afternoon at his seat in the neighbourhood of Windsor. His Lordship, we understand, had been for some time suffering under the rapid strides of disease, and from Tuesday last no hopes whatever were entertained of his recovery. His Lordship was one of the oldest Officers in the British Army, and at the time of his death had attained the advanced age of eighty-six. Mrs. 'LoNomAN gave a delightful ball to 500 persons, at her beautiful villa, Mount Grove, on Wednesday. The rooms were tastefully fitted up, and the scene altogether presented a superb coup (Neil.

We have no arrivals of the least importance, with the exception of the estafette from Paris, which brings the French Three per Cents. nearly one per cent. higher, 77f. 80e., owing to a report at Paris that the expedition had made good their landing on tl.e coast of Africa. The following is a passage taken from the electoral decree of the Archbishop of Avignon " The King has dissolved the Chambers—the fate of the Monarchy depends on the choice of the electors ; if they select men acceptable to God, France will be saved ; if, on the other hand, they give their votes to the favourers of new ideas, hostile to the Bourbons, sighing after a liberty which would reduce us to a pitiless slavery, such as we have before experienced, our noble country will soon resemble that of Algiers." A Paris Paper says that the sentiments expressed in the Royal Proclamation to the electors, are calculated to assuage the constitutional alarms which it has been sought with so much perseverance to excite in the minds of the people, but in their present temper we question whether the eloquence of St. Paul himself would ensure the retu: n of what is called a Royalist Chamber. We understand, however, from authority, that the Ultra candidates, of whatever Shade or colour, are likely to be defeated, and that the new Chamber will be composed of Deputies, who, seeing the danger of pushing matters too far, will consent to such a compromise as may ensure the permanency of the real benefits enjoyed by the country. A private letter - from Berlin says, that a Spaniard has arrived in the above city - from Siberia, where he had been sent as a prisoner of war in 1815. He almost completely forgot his native language. left in Siberia many hun dreds of his fellow-prisoners, living in caves, and horribly mutilated by the peasants of Tartary.

We deem it necessary to inform the public that Prince Frederick of Prussia, who is likely to be King of Greece, is not the son of the King of Prussia, but the son of the Duchess of Cumberland, whose first husband was Prince Louis of Prussia ; his Royal Highness was born in the year 1794, and married in the year 1817. We also understand that the Emperor of Russia has not altered his sentiments in regard to Greece, and left his proxy as in the first instance to France; therefore it is the general opinion that Prince Frederick of Prussia will be the King chosen to the Crown of Greece. Although the private letters by the estafette from Paris, bring a report that the first division of the expedition had effected a landing on the coast of Africa, we are not enabled, as yet, to give any confidence to the above state ment. When the accounts left Paris, no official informa tion bad been received. The Consol market appears to be looking up: and has improved to 92 93 for the Account, as according to the information from Paris the state of affairs is becoming more calm, and every thing will go off more quietly than was previously expected. In the Foreign Market business is nearly at a stand-still, and the prices are nearly the same as yesterday ; in Shares little or nothing doing. South Metropolitan Gas 2?-, prem. 7 HREE 0' CL 0 CIS.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.-(THIS DAY.) VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT. COMPENSATION-LONDON BRIDGE.-BROWN V. CHILD. The plaintiffs in this cage are the tenants for life of two house, Nos. 5 and 6, in Fish-street-hill, which in consequence of the new London Bridge it Las become ne cessary to pull down. At the death of the late tenant for life, which took place in Sept. 1E329, the leases of the present occupiers expired. They, however, continued in possession of the premises. The London Bridge Com missioners gave them notice that the premises were wanted for the purposes of the new bridge, and they then put in a chilli for compensation in consequence of the loss they would sustain in being obliged to leave the premises. The property being under the controul of this Court, a reference was ordered to the Master to inquire what sum ought to be demanded from the London Bridge Commissioners for the interest of the freeholders in the premises. The finding of the Master, upon being laid before the Commissioners, was rejected by them as most exhorbitant, and it was ultimately determined that the claim should be referred to a Jury. The Commissioners, however, had thought it right to award the sum of 4001. to Mr. Green, one of the tenants—the claim of Mr. Chatfield, the other tenant, was unsettled. The present petition was presented (the matter shortly being expected to come before the Jury) praying, among other things, that the solicitors of the tenant for lite of the freehold, who were entitled to the compensation, should have the management of the matter before the Jury, in the place of Messrs. Sanders and Cummings, the solicitors of the trustees ; it being alleged that Mr. Sanders had acted as the solicitor of Mr. Green, one of the tenants, and in that character supporting the rights of the occupiers to a cl►im for compensation which would, of course, go in r. duction of the claims of the plaintiffs. The two charac ters therefore they would hold would be inconsistent, for they never could turn round upon themselves and say that the freeholder always was entitled to compensation. Mr. HORNE and Mr. ELLisoN appeared in support a the petition. Mr. KNIG HT, • who was Counsel for the Trustees, con tended that all that had been done by Messrs. Sanders and Cumming was fair and honourable. Mr. Sanders happen ing to meet Mr. Green going down to the Commission, and accompanied him, in consequence of his requesting him to do so, he being utterly ignorant of the claim which he had set up for the sum of 4001. The VICE-CIIANCELLOIt observed there cool! be no doubt of the high respectability of Messrs. Sanders and Cummings. The affidavit whit tolley had made, and which was destructive of their case, left no doubt of their integrity ; but it must be remarkel that the highest of all authorities had said, that "No tnan could serve two masters." Prom the evidence it appeared, that Mr. Sanders had expressed an opi nion that the freeholders were not entitled to any compensation for good-will. His Honour thought that was a misconception. Mr. Sanders having wrongfully, though conscieriCously, given up the interest of the freeholders, the Court thought it was but fair and proper that some other person should undertake the case of the plaintiff before the Jury. The tenants ought to have quitted the premises immediately upon the death of the previous tenant for life. The prayer of the petition mu,t therefore be granted. COURT OF KING'S BENCH. ECCLESIASTICAL COMMISSION. At half-past nine o'clock this morning the Archbishop of Cantetbury, the Bishops of London and Exeter, Lord Tenter& n, Lord Chief Justice Tindal, the Judges of the Prerogative, Admiralty, and Consistory Courts, and the other distinguished individual:. forming the Commission appointed to inquire into the state of the Ecclesiastical Law and the practice of the Courts, attended in this Court, where they severally took the oaths of allegiance, eze. Sec., the adenioiAration of which by the Officer of the Court occupied a comiderable time. THE KING V. TRANT AND WARM These defendants were this morning brought up in the custody of the keeper of Newgate, for the purpose of being bailed. Trout is a man of respectable appear ance, and the other defendant is his servant. It appeared from the affidavits, that Mr. 'T rant, who rents the Regent's, Hyde, and the Green Parks, (which he lets out to differ ent butchers to turn sheep into) was walking through the last mentioned Park on the 9th of June, when he dis covered that there were eleven sheep and seven lambs feeding there, of which he had no knowledge, and as he was not allowed to have more than 850 there at one time, he ordered his servant (Warm) to drive them to the Re gent's Park, and if enquiry should be made respecting them, to inform any one who might make such enquiry, where they were to be found. The sheep, it afterwards turned out belonged to a gentleman named Hampson, who ascertained where they had been taken to, and that it was by order of the defendant Troia. He went to his (Trant's) house, in Baker-court, Manchester-square, and on de manding his sheep he was told by Trent that they should be delivered up to him. This however, from some cause or another, did not satisfy Mr. Hampson, and he procured an officer and gave the defendant into custody on a charge of sheep -stealing. The charge was beard before the Ma gistrate, and both the defendants were committed to New gate for the alleged felony. Mr. CARRINGTON on Wednesday last out dned a writ of habeas c37 - pus to bring them up to be bailed, and in consequence of that writ they this morning appeared. After reading a number of affidavits, Lord TENTERDEN said, the Court proposed that the defendant Trout should enter into his own recogni zance of 2001., and find four sorties of ` 50/. earls; and that Warre should enter into his own recognizance of SOL, and find four sureties of 20/. each, to answer the charge at the ensuing old B tiley Sessions. Four persons immediately presented themselves as bail for both the defendants. They were objected to by Mr. Lee on behalf of the prosecutor, but the opposition was ineffectual. They then entered into the necessary rect.sni zancei, and the defendants were discharged. The CourT was afterwards occupied in hearing motions for new trials of no public interest. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS. BUSINESS 01 , THE COURT. The Loin entEr JUSTICE, on taking his seat this morning, intimated to the bar that, in consequence of a Privy Couneil having been appointed for to-morrow, it was the intention of the Court to pro:eed, in the first in stance, with the two short detnurrers on the Cause Paper, after which their Lordships would take those countr✓ new trials in which none of the Judges of that Court had been concerned. The Court ailjourntql eleven o'clock —the Lord Chief Jthtice proceeded to Guildhall to sit at Nisi Prins, and the Puisne Judges joined the Barons of the Exchequer, in the Exchequer Cloambr, to hear arguments in Writs of Error, none of which possessed the slightest possilile in terest, relating simply to dry points of law. The Lord Bishop of BATH and WELLS in tends to hold an Ordination at Wells, on Sunday the 1 I th of July; and the candidates, whose papers shall be in due time sent in and approve:l, are to attend the examination at the Palace on the previous Friday morning. PA UL CLIFFORD.--The design of this new wo:k, by the celebrated author of Pelham, is not we believe at present clearly understood. Allusion has been made to certain characters en masque; but the masquerade' part is only an accessory to the story, not the ground work. It rarely occurs after the 'first volume and is to he found only in certain scenes of life, which with - mt such disguise might, to some rea d( re, appear rather startling at first view. The persons alluded to under the most extravagant disguises, but in the spirit of the utmost good humour, are understood to be the KING, Lord ELDON, SCATMETT, Sir FRANCIS Bun- DIVTT, the Duke of WELLINGTON, Mr. HUSKISSON, and Lord ELLENLOROUGII ; no women are mentioned perso nally but there is a general satire on exclusive society ! The story is reported to be more amusing and uniform titan any of the author's other works and admits no digression or grave reflection. THE KING'S HEALTH. . r;'- (From the Court Cireuhir.)

Pi ince FREDERICK of Prussia honoured the Marquis and Marchioness of LONDONDERRY with his company to dinner yesterday evening, at their residence in Park-lane. There was a select party to meet his Royal Highness. Prince LEOPOLD left town yesterday for his residence at Claremont. A deputation of Members of the House of Peers, among whom were the Marquis of CLEVZLAND, the Marquis of SALISBURY, the Earl of VIE/MLA/4, and the Earl of WEST MORLAND, had by appo'ntment a conference with the Duke of \VaLLINOTON and Sir Roneei num yesterday, at the Treasury. The Earl of ABERDEEN and Sir Gamma Aruaaair had interviews with the Duke of WatutararoN yesterday, at he Treasury. (From the Times.) We have heard from a source upon which we are dis posed to place reliance, that his MAJESTY was so far re covered on Tuesday last as to require that his tradesmen's bills should be brought before him, for the purpose of being examined, as was customary previous to his MA JESTY'S illness. From the same source:we are informed, that a venerable nobleman, who resides within a short distance of Windsor, having omitted to pay his customary visits at the Castle, his MAJESTY inquired the reason, and hawing been informed that illness was the cause of the noble Lord's non-attendance, his MAJESTY sent a special messen ger to inquire after the health of the Noble Lord. (From the Morning Herald.) WINDSOR, THURSDAY EVENING. His MAJESTY'S close application to State affairs, for nearly four hours yesterday, has hal no injurious effect on his health. After the departure of the Duke of WEL: LINGTON, and the other Ministers of State, his MAJEsry remainci in conversation with his Royal Highness the Doke of CUMBERLAND until five o'clock; and when his Royal Highness had taken his leave, some of the most dis tinguished residents at Court had audiences of his MA .• JESTY. The KING afterwards enjoyed sound and natural sleep through the night, and awoke this morning quite as well as he was yesterday. To-day his MAJESTY has received visits from the Duke of CLARENCE, the Duchess of Gtouczsxxx, and the Princess A UG USTA. Their Royal Highnesses arrived about mid-day, and left betwee❑ three and four o'clock. From the extraordinary exertions making to complete the improvements at the Royal Lodge, in the Great Park, within these few last days, it would appear that Lis MA JESTY contemplates an early removal thither. Half-past Fire, p.m. His MAJESTY is materially:improved in health sinee the morning. FASHIONABLE INTELLIGENCE. ARRIVALS. .. ..

PORTRAIT OF THE KING.—We are re queeted to state, that a beautiful copper-plate engraving of the KING will he presented gratis with each number of the Court Journal of Saturday next, June 19.

THE MINOR THEATRES.--It IS said that on the next occasion of applying for a renewal of the licences for the minor metropolitan theatres, the pm prietors of Covent-garden and Drury-lane theatres have determined upon entering a strong opposition against timo chimants, on the ground that the minor theatres have de parted from the terms upon which they were licensed, by acting the regular drama instead of confining their enter tainments to spectae'es, dancing, and music. It is even said that proceedings have already keen commenced against the Tottenham-street theatre, and that Mr. ADOLPH US, 0 has hitherto so strenuously advocated the cause of the minors, is retained on behalf of the majors. A great deal of speechifying will of course take place when the matter comes on to be argued. The first day of one of those modern aids to benevo!ence, which formed the basis of the clever satire " Charity Bazaars," took place at the Hanover-square Rooms, yesterday, for the benefit of the Southwark Eye and Ear Infirmary. The rooms were well attended, and the Duke of GLOUCESTER'S band, by their brilliant exe— cution of some modern music, made the affair a very agreeable lounge. Some albums, with a new ki n d o f tinted paper, and spring locks, of a very neat construction, attracted considerable attention. The young man (FOGHERTY) who fell cfr Waterloo Bridge, in endeavouring to avoid payment of the toll, died yesterday morning at three o'clock, of his wounds. Coroner's verdict—Accidental Death. A melancholy casualty took place on Friday in Dundalk. An interesting little gill of ten years old, daughter of Mr. A. M'Coasticx, watch-maker, was playing with the younger children of the family, when she bid herself from them in a meal vessel, tie cover of which fell down, and before the children lOural her hiding plate she was dead, either from suffocaf on or fright. All•may judge of the affliction of her parents and friends on vault an cecasiou.--Bellitst News-Letter. ve of e 11 10 Iror
