The good citizens of London have now a greater assemblage of civic dignitaries amongst them than have fia year* graced the metropolis. Not less than three Lord Mayors! ! The Lord Mayor, whose functions will expire en Tuesday next. The Lord Mayor elect, whose civic duties Will- mainaence on that day ;—and the Lord Skier of Dublin! This is an honour of which fete chic" can boast; *but highly u we in modern times may value such an honour, it would seem. to have bean viewed with far, different feelings by our forefathers. L ord Mayors, a few centuries ago, snust have been considered terrible fellows, when an assemblage of three of them was looked upon as an omen of the most dreadful import. For we find In an old northern prediction of the lbth century that au& a combination portended evils to the country of the %oat awful character. It is said— When London secs three Lord Mayors, Let England for troubles prepare ' • }or in that year, on mischief Kent, The Devil will stalk through Kent, Mid the men Of the West and North, To the battle field will go forth And the raven of war will be fed, For the living can't bury the dead." BAPTISM OF A CONVERTED JEW. A novel and highly interesting event, the baptism of a converted Jew, took place here on Sunday last, the 17th instant, in the Vestry of the church, immediately after divine service in the afternoon. We have not been informed of the circumstances which have directly led to the conversion of this individual ; but his very ad vanced age of eighty-seven years, the respectable character for industry and sobriety which he h as maintained in this place for a period almost equal to the ordinary average of human life, and above all the fervent but unostentatious ardour which he manifested to be admitted within the pale of the Christian. Church, seem sufficiently to remove from him all suspicions of interested motives in leaving the faith of his fathers. We needscareety say that the ceremony was per formed by the Rev. Mr. Walker, in the most ameopriate and impressive manner; while the 'venerable and patriarchal appearance of the Catechumen, together with the deep feeling of devotional earnestness and sincerity with which he gave the responses to the interrogatories of the clergyman, conspired to impress the spectators with a greater degree of solemnity than ia usual in witnessing the administration of the , eaerament of baptism, under ordinary cir- Gunistances. The form of baptising an adult, whoiablinself capable of coming under those vows, and Obligationa generelly laid upon the parents or eponsnre, was of .course adopted in this instance. The prayers, the address, and the' trestions proposed to the individual to be baptised, most properly all bore a very pointed reference to those peculiarities of the Christian Faith which sl ang . 11 , cat atU t h G do g mas of Judaism. The crowd ofspectators who pressed into the vestry, and the passages leading to it, to witness the interesting ceremony was very con siderable, although the time and place of cele bration were not in general previously known. The above is from a correspondent. We may add that the venerable old man who has re nounced the errors of Judaism, and embraced the Christian religion, was born in Germany in 1743. He was in Paris during the first part of the Reign of Terror. Apprehending his ow n life to be in danger from the, frequency with which he OM the myrmidons of - Robespierre butcher others equally inoffending, he contrived to escape to haigland. 11e soon afterwards made his way to the north of Scotland, in which plate, principally betwixt Elgin and Inverness, he has contrived to earn a livelihood by vending spectacles and other trinkets. His first misgivings as to the truth of Judaism were occasioned, about .a year since, from pe rusing the New Testament. He persevered in the daily reading of that book—the errors of his former creed became daily snore manifest— still his wishes were on the side of Judaism. The struggle between his convictions and his prejudices at length became so great,' that he represents his consequent mental agony as being ] far a time beyond description. He ultimately determined, however, to sacrifice his prejudices to his convictions. Those convictions were that Judaism was a system of the most dangerous error—that Jesus of Nazareth, whom his fathers, with wicked hands, crucified and slew, was the promised Messiah—and that, in short, Chris tianity was the only true religion. An applica tion was accordingly made some time since, by the converted Jew, to our parish ministers for the Privilege of Christian baptism. He was carefully and repeatedly examined touching his views of the Christian dispensation, and the result was, that Sunday last was appointed for his undergoing the initiatory rite to the privi leges and blessings of the Gospel economy. His former, or Jewish name was Isaac Samuels, and his Christian name is William Isaac Sa muels. We understand that the aged man now declares that he never felt himself so happy in his mind, as since his public admission within the pale of Christianity.—Eigin courier.

We have little to add to our intelligence last week from Chill. On the 22t1 of June the country remained quiet; the residue of General Freere's army has capitulated, and ! the General himself was banished to Peru, notwithstand ing which considerable appprehension prevailed that affairs would not long remain quiet. A portion of the middling orders, and - all the lower class of people, were decidedly hostile to the existing Government and its supporters, which they denominated as the Aristocracy of the land. JULY 31.--The Government of Peru have pub- Hailed some very restrictive measures, such as prohibiting foreign merchants from establishing themselves in the interior of the republic, and the introduction of foreign flour; they have ordered the auction houses to be shut, and custom.houses to be placed in the sea-ports, in order that foreign commerce should be carried on solely by the Court. All foreigners are included in the above, Argentines, and the natives of the rest of the republics, except Colombia. I Alinuter 7.—lntelligence from the interior has been re ceived to the 24th ult.

" August and worthy Representatives of the nation, — I much regret having to intimate to the General Assembly how disagreeable it was to me that the time fixed for the close of this Session should arrive without any of those measures being effected which the Constitution of the empire requires, which I had recommended, and the whole nation hoped from the patriotism of its representatives. " It being however my duty, as the first and most in terested in the prosperity of Brazil, to meet with a prompt and legal remedy the evils that afflict the country, and seeing the urgent and indispensable necessity of some le gislative measures which remain pehding, and of others which the critical circumstances in which Brazil is placed call for, I have resolved to convoke an extraordinary Session of the General Assembly, in order that it may discuss those subjects which I had thought fit to point out to it in the speech from the throne.

Yesterday evening a detachment of volunteers, belonging to the legion of Colonel Pontecoulrnt, marched to L'Ealure and Oostburg : last night other troops followed, and today, at noon, the remainder of the legion proceeded in the same direction, with two field pieces. It is affirmed that Dutch troops have been landed at Breskenr, and that at Oostburg workmen are employed in raising batteries and digging ditches. Thus it seems that the Dutch intend to fortify the line of the country of Ca' (hand against the attacks of the enemy. The whole city is in motion; every body runs to arms to defend the city, in case of need, against enemies of every descrip tion. It is said that the Dutch fled as soon as they heard that reinforcements were coming from Bruges. PROVISIONAL GOVERNMENT OF BELGIUM. COMMINJCATIONS OF THE GOVERNMENT. nausszt.s, ocv. 29.

In abort, it is a total ruin for Antwerp, which will never recover this blow, to the advantage of Amsterdam.

This being the day appointed for his MA JESTY to open Parliament, at an early hour all the streets leading towards the House of Lords presented a most animated appearance. Shortly after ten o'clock a detachment of the Foot Guards, with the band dressed in their splendid liveries, marched down Parliament-street, and took their station opposite to the entrance of the House of Lords, and even at that early hour carriages were every minute arriving, setting down ladies most superbly dressed. His MA JESTY left St. James's Palace about half-past one o'clock, and proceeded in the usual style through the Park, and entered Parliament -street, by the Horse Guards, attended and surrounded by thousands and tens of thousands of his loyal and devoted subjects. Throughout the whole line of road the KING was received with the most enthusiastic cheering, and his MAJESTY seemed highly gratified with the reception he met with from the people. Indeed it was a reception of which even a King of ENGLAND might be proud, and proved, if any proof was wanting, the high estimation and affection in which our beloved SOVEREIGN is held by his subjects. At Twelve o'clock the House of Lords was opened for the admission of those who had been lucky enough to obtain tickets of admission either to the Bar, the Long Gallery, or the Painted Chamber. At this moment, no less than 150 carriages, filled with persons of dis tinction, were waiting. The preparations and improvements in the interior of the House were similar to those which took place at the last occasion. The Long Gallery and Painted Chamber were thronged with fashion ably attired females and gentlemen. The body of the House was crowded with rank, wealth, and beauty, the contrast of its appear ance on this and the last occasion was exceed ingly remarkable. Instead of the sombre habili ments of mourning, the House now blazed with all the colours of the rainbow, beautifully arranged by the hand of fashion. Indeed, for elegance, simplicity, and taste, the appearance far surpasses any thing we ever saw. His MAJESTY arrived at a quarter-past Two o'clock, and took his seat on the Throne, accompanied by all his Ministers of State.— Th e Duke of Wcz.LINGT ON h e ld th e Sword of State, and the Marquis of WIN CHESTER the Cap of Maintenance. The usual oath was then administered to the KING by the LORD CHANCELLOR. HIS MAJESTY then delivered the following most graciou s Speech : " MY LORDS AND GENTLRAIRN, a It is with great satisfaction that I meet you in p a rliament, and that I am enabled, in the present conjuncture, to recur to your advice. Since the dissolution of the late Parliament events of deep interest and importance have occurred on the continent of Europe. t‘ The elder branch of the House of Bourbon no longer reigns in France, and the Duke of Oni.RANII has been called to the Throne by the title of King of the French. Raving received from the new Sovereign a declaration of his earnest desire to cub. tivate the good understanding, and to maintain in date a.\\ the engagements subsisiing with this country, I did not hesitate to continue my diplo matic relations and friendly intercourse with the French Court. " I have witnessed, with deep regret, the state of affairs in the Low Countries. I lament that the enligh tened administration of the KING should not have pre served his dominions from revolt, and that the wise and prudent measure of submitting the Desires and Complaints of his People, to the deliberations of an extraordinary Meeting of the States-General, should have led to no satisfactory result. I am endea vouring in concert with my Allies to devise such means of restoring tranquillity as may be compati ble with the good government of the Netherlands, and with the future security of other States. " Appearances of tumult :and disorder have pro duced uneasiness in different parts of Europe; but the assurances of a friendly disposition which I con tinue to receive from all Foreign Powers, justify the expectation that I shall be enabled to preserve for my people the blessings of peace. Impressed at all times with the necessity of respecting the faith of national engagements, I am per suaded that any determination to maintain, in conjunction with my Allies, those general treaties by which the political system of Europe has been established, trill offer the best security for the repose of the world. " I have not yet accredited my Ambassador to the Court of Lisbon ; but the Portuguese Govern ment having determined to perform a great act of jus tice and humanity by the grant of a general amnesty, I think that the time will shortly arrive when the interests of my subjects will demand a renewal of those Relations which had so long existed be tween the two Countries. I am impelled by the deep solicitude which I feel for the welfare of my People, to recommend to your immediate con sideration the provisions which it may be ad viseable to make for the exercise of the Royal Authority, in case that it should please Almighty God to terminate my life before my successsor shall have arrived at years of maturity. " I shall be prepared to concur with you in the adoption of those measures which may appear beat calculated to maintain unimpared the stability and dignity of the Crown, and thereby to strengthen the securitiesby which the civil and religious liberties of my people are guarded. " Gentlemen of the House of Commons, " I have ordered the Estimates for those services of the present year, for which the last Parliament did not fully provide, to be forthwith laid before you. The Estimates for the ensuing year will be prepared with that strict regard to economy which I am de termined to enforce in every branch of the Public Expenditure. "By the demise of my lamented Brother, the late King, the Civil List Revenue has expired. " I place, without reserve, at your disposal my interest in the Hereditary Revenues, and in those funds which may be derived from Droits of the Crown or Admiralty, from the West India Duties, or from any casual Revenues, either in my foreign possessions, or in the United Kingdom. " In surrendering to you my interest in revenues which have' in former settlements of the Civil List been reserved to the Crown, I rejoice in the opportunity of evincing my entire reliance on your dutiful attachment, and my confidence that you will cheerfully provide all that may be necessary for the support of the Civil Government, and the honour and dignity of my Crown. " MY LORDS AND GENTLEMEN ) .— deeply lament that in in some districts of the country, the property of my subjects has been en dangered by combinations for the destruction of machinery—and that serious losses have been sus tained through the acts of wicked incendiaries. " I cannot view without grief and indignation, the efforts which are industriously made to excite among the people a spirit of discontent and disaffec tion, and to disturb the concord which happily pre vails between those parts of my dominion, the union of which is essential to their common strength and common happiness. lam determined to exert to the utmost of my power, all the means which the Law and Constitution have placed at my disposal for the punishment of Sedition, and for the prompt suppression of outrage and disorder. Amidst all the difficulties of the present conjunc ture, 1 reflect, with the highest satisfaction, on the loyalty and affectionate attachment of the great body of my people. " I am confident that they justly appreciate the full advantage of that happy form of Government, under which, through the favour of Divine Pro vidence, tills country has enjoyed for a long succession of years, a greater share of inter nal Peace, of Commercial prosperity, of true li berty, of all that constitutes social happiness, than has fallen to the lot of any other country in the world. It is the great object of my life to preserve y people, and t o t ransm i t t h em these blessings to m unimpaired to Posterity, and I am animated in the discharge of the sacred duty which is committed to me, by the firmest reliance on the wisdom of Parlia ment, and on the cordial support of my faithful and loyal subjects." On the entrance of Prince TALLICYRAND ihto the house of Peers the sensation among the Peers was quite electrical. He was an ob ject of universal curiosity. The Duchess of KENT, Princess VICTORIA, anti almost all the Members of the Royal Family, together with all the Foreign Ambassadors, were present. The Brussels Papers contain little fresh in telligence. The details, however, of the mis chiefs inflicted by the Dutch on Antwerp are really terrific. Five millions sterling, it seems , will not indemnify that unfortunate city for the injuries wreaked on it by the jealous malignity of the Dutch ! We have some advices this morning from China. Another attempt had been made to raise a rebellion on the North-Western frontier. Twelve of the ringleaders had been apprehended and executed, and this, it was supposed, had put an end to the affair. At Ili an interdict against the sale of tea and rhubarb to foreign tribes had been issued: A report of an insurrection at Formosa was still current. The insurgents are said to have killed a Heem magistrate, and taken possession of the district. They were composed Partly of natives and partly of Chinese. Two more members had been united to the cohong, and as many other candidates were spoken of, it was hoped the formation of a respectable WI of merchants would soon -take place ? , 1 1.0 sequence of the EMPEROR'S visit torMODO he had issued a general pardon, or initivia punishment, to all criminals, e xceptihg#lo included under the technical phrase of PO the ten great crimes, treason, sacrilege, A grand meeting of the Electors hashOilel lately at Stamford, at which many 044 0 lutions on the subject of a reform in the rer sentation of that oppressed Borough werepeo and will be found in another column of 1 1 Sun.
