THE CORONATION. PROVINCIAL CELEBRATIONS. OFFICERS or THE 3D GUARDS' BALI. AND SUPPER IN HONOUR OF THE CORONATION. _ On Monday se'nnight a most splendid Ball and Supper was given at the Royal Hotel, Ply mouth, by the Officers of the 3d Foot Guards, in honour of his MAJESTY'S Coronation. Cards of invitation, including. all persons of distinction residing in the town and neighbourhood, amount ing to nearly 300, were issued. The Ball opened with a country dance, which was led ottby Lady ELI Z ABETII PACK and Colonel GUTH CROW. Quadrilles' and - waltzes followed, with scarcely any interval, until two o'clock, when the com pany retired to supper. The large dining-room underneath the ball-room was appropriated to this purpose ; and Mr. and Mrs. WatnnoN, per haps, never did themselves greater credit than on this splendid occasion, both by the supper which was provided, and by the tasteful and elegant manner in which the tables were set out. Grapes and. pines were in the greatest profusion, and exotics of the most delicious 'flavour were to be seen in every direction around the room. Wines were in the greatest variety and abundance,' and all excellent in their kind.• The champaign in particular, was of a peculiarly de licious flavour and taste. The entrance and stair-case leading to the hall-room were most beautifully decorated with laurel leaves, having a Crown and the letters G. R. IV - . entwined, and brilliantly illuminated with variegated lamps., The floor of the ball-room was chalked in six compartments, having the Rose, the Thistle, and the Shamrock, grouped in the centre, with the regimental motto " Unita Fortiot," over them. The front of the orchestra was decorated with laurel boughs and leaves, surrounding the letters G. R. I V.; and the regimental colours w e r e dis played, one from each side of the room, at the upper end. A guard of honour of grenadiers attended at the door, and lined the approach through the hall - to the staircase. Among the company present were observed:—Lady Elizabeth Pack, Lady and Miss Cochrane, Captain and Lady Augusta "Fitzclarence, Lady Louisa Call, Lady Elizabeth Forbes, Hon. Mr. and Mrs. Pole Carew, Sir Ascot and Lady Molesworth. Lady and Niiss Buller, Mrs. and Misses Bultell, &c.' Indeed, a more brilliant display of beauty and fashion has. very seldom perhaps been witnessed in Plymouth. During Supper, Colonel CLITHEROW, after re marking, that although it was not usual . to pro pose toasts in the presence of Ladies, he could . not help giving one on the present occasion—an occasion, he said, on which our goblets ought to flow with wine, and our hearts overflow with loyalty ; he then gave—" Health and happiness to King George the Fourth, and may he long wear the Crown of these. realms." We need not add that the toast was drank with enthusiasm.— Dancing re-commenced, and was kept up with great spirit until five o'clock in the morning, when the company separated, gratified, it was evident, in the highest degree. Indeed, it was impossible for them to be otherwise, considering the splendour of the entertainments which were provided, and the elegant and polite attention which was paid to every one present, by all the Officers of this fine and loyal Regiment. CHATHaar.—The morning was ushered in by every demon stration of loyalty. Bells rung throughout the day, the town's gentry assembled in the most respectable numbers at dinner, a feu de foie was fired by the whole of the garrison ; the Officers of the different corps and regiments clubbed together their plate are. mess utensils, and met at the Royal Marine Mess-room, being the most spacious in the garrison, to the number of raf. where a most superb dinner awaited, consisting of every deli cacy and the choicest wines. The evening was passed most convivially, when after having drunk Kin g Gorge the Fourth's health with three times three (the band striking up the fa vorarite air of God save the King), and other appropriate tes_sta, the whole party broke up at an early hour to witness the splendid transparancies of the Marine Barracks. Here words arc wanted to express the effect. The whole front of the Bar racks was one blaze of light ; in the centre, under the clock, appeared a.most beautiful transparency of his Majesty, over which a superb Clown shone in great splendour, on each side letters 0. R. and within the clock two most brilliant Stars. All was one scene of enchantment and festivity. The soldiers arid their wives who had dined together (a subscription having bee^ made for the purp ose ), p ara di ng arm i n arm, their chil dren and their infants huzzaing, groups . of richly dressed Offi cers, town people, &c. all enjoying the scene, with the band in their superb new uniform in the centre playing the most delig!itful and pop u l ar a i rs, conc ludi ng with " God save the King," in which the whole joined thorns.—The Upper Bar raaks, and every other quarter, exhibited the same marks of loyalty and affection. TAFFORDSDIRE.—The Coronation was celebrated with much spirit at Burton-upon-Trent. The morning of Thursday was ushered in by th e mus i ca l pea l o f bells, which continued at intervals till after midnight. The Sunday School Children were treated by the Ladies, who have the management of the Schools, with a dinner, and in the evening, with tea, &c. out of the subscription ; six h un d re d women h a d one shilling each for tea ; and • about eight hundred children sixpence each. At seven o'clock, some hundred gallons of strong tile - -were given to the populace in different parts of the town. Independently of the dinner in the Town Hall, most of the principal Inns had dinner parties to celebrate the joyous occasion ; and we must farther record, that so perfect an unanimity of sentiment pre vailed, that.not one disagreement took place through the day and evening. Owing to the Town Hall being engaged on the 19th for the public dinner, a ball took place in hono u r o f thi s joyous occasion o n th e following evening, which was most nu merously and respectably attended, and the merry dance kept up till long after day-light ; and in the course of the day seve ral sheep were roasted, and ale again given away. FOOL—(li. T. 0 nAN).—The day was ushered in by the ring ing of bells. At two o'clock a loyal part,- sat down to dinner at the Basset Arms. " King George the Fourth; and may he live long and happy," was toasted and cheered with four times tour. The health of Lord de .Dunstanville and family was given with three tinie4 three. The inn was decorated with a teiernphal,areh, l aure l, an d fl owers. I n t h e evening the Basset Arms was brilliantly illuminated with transparencies and proper mottos ; the band playing national airs. The fine primeval and druidical mountain of Carnurea flamed to the skies again e cannon lending their thunder, and fireworks extending theft radiations, awakened aisociations of ancient grandeur to heighten the present glory. of Britain, and the glow of loyalty. Lord de Dun s t a n v ill e cause d considerable sums of money to be distributed to the poor widows of the neighbourhood. JULY 26.--In this town, on Thursday, 'about 120 Gentlemen dined at the Great White Horse, R. A. Crickitt, Esq. taking the Chair, being supported on his right by Sir Sa need Fludyer, and on his left by Capt. Daniel, R.N. In ad dition to the usual p u bli c t oas t s " The Cabinet Ministers" was received with three ti nos three.—On Mr. Gooch's arrival from the annual dinner of the subscribers to the Ckrieal Charity, his health was drank with six times six, and the Hon. Gentleman warmly returned thanks, and said the study of his life had .been to prove himself grateful to the county 'for -the trust so long reposed in him. Many other toasts . were drank in the course of the evening, and it was kept up with greathilarity.— A dinner was given to 150 poor men of the Blue interest, at the King's Arms Inn, and by the contributions of Mr. Crickitt and others; each presented with 4s. 6d. beside. The Lancers and Colonel Edgar's Corps of Cavalry fired four vollies, and went through their evolutions in the morning. CLIST HorgiTox.--,The morning of. the Coronation was ushered in by the ringing of the'cliarch bells, which continued at intervals throughout the day. A copious supply of cider, cakes, and other refreshments was then distributed among the poor. True loyalty displayed itself in the lanuage of the heart, repeated in son g an d sentiment, enthusiastic' and conti nued cheers of GOD save the King. Briaxitnai.—The auspicious day was introduced here by the ceering music of our national anthem, performed by an ama teur band, at fiv e in the 'morning. Si;on,.all was bustle ; the The French Journals of Saturday arrived this morning, and bring confirmation of the important naval victory gained by the Greek fleet at the mouth of the Dardanelles ; the particulars of which are communicated in tat article from Corfu. It is stated that 44 the Turkish fleet, consisting " of one vessel of three decks, three of two " decks, three frigates, four.brigs of the first " class, two corvettes of twenty-two guns, and 44 six gun-brigs of twelve each, cast a►►chor in " the port of Mytilene, after having passed the " Dardanelles ; but the three-decker remained " at the entrance of the port. " The Greek fleets, composed of thirty five 44 sail from Hydria, and Spezzia, having formed 44 a junction, the attack was resolved on. The 64 Greek Admiral commenced it by sending a 44 fire-ship against the three-decker to the entrance " of the port. The Turks, perceiving•the danger, " withdrew and left the port open. " The Greeks, animated with the greatest en " thusiasm, and thirsting for revenge, engaged in " a sanguinary fight, which was sustained by the " Turks with the courage of despair, and by the " Greeks.with a valour worthy the best times of 44 Greece. The Turkish fleet was carried by " boarding, with the exception of the three-decker, "‘ which was set on fire, to save the loss of men 44 by boarding. The crews were put to the 64 sword, or perished in the waves. Part of the " crew of the three-decker escaped the flames, " by throwing themselves overboard ; but they 44 were egpally terrified at the fate that awaited 64 them, on surrendering in the end without C ‘ resistance." The true field of the Greek insurrection is in ancient Greece, .which comprizes the Pelepon nesus, Attica, and the Islands of the Archipelago . Whenever the Greeks have met their oppressors in this quarter, they have disOayed energy and courage worthy their ancestors ; and if we may be permitted to prejudge the result, we think that the liberation of Greece will commence in the country of Pericles and Leonidas. The po pulation of Greece Proper we trust will yet ex cite tile interest of the European Powers, w ho ought not to forget that the blood shod at this moment on the classic soil of the Arts is the blood of Christians, and that the perpetrators of these sanguinary deeds are Barbarians. Th e following are further Extracts from the French Papers : 44 ST. CLOUD, JULY 27.—Prince Leopold- of Saxe-Cobourg dined yesterday with the King and the Royal Family. " PARIS, JuLy 28.—1 n the Journal de Lyon of the 24th of July we read the two following articles : ' Some persons who pretend to derive their intelligence from good authority speak of a con vention already concluded, by virtue of which a great Northern Sovereign is to be acknowledged as Protector of the Greek Confederation. The report of a Secret Treaty relative to the partition of Turkey gains daily more credit.' FRENCH July 27, Five per Cents. Bank Stock' /525 f. c. " VIENNA, Jury 13.-- In the Isle of Rhodes, the numerous positions originally forti fied by the Knights of Malta, and which are now in the hands of the Turks, have prevent ed the flight of the unfortunate Christians, who have been almost all 'massacred. The coasts of Anatolia and Caramania are full of Christian fugitives, waiting for the arrival of Greek ships from the Archipelago to escape certain death ; others have taken refuge in the mountains. " The Christians of Syria, at the news of the pillage, profanations and massacres of Jerusalem, are reported to have joined the Drusi, the des cendants of the Crusaders, and sworn enemies of the Osmanlis. As soon as these generous war riors were apprized of these circumstances by the fugitives of Jerusalem, who escaped from the cold-blooded massacres, executed by the Turks in the Holy City, they rose against the Sultan ; and it is to be hoped that the junction of these brave men with the Greek and Syrian Christians, those of Armenia, Diarbekir, and the kingdom of Pergamus, may save a part of the Christian popu lation of Asia from the extermination to which they are doomed by the Osmanlis. Letters from Egypt affirm that Ali Mahomed Pacha has pro mised the Christians his powerful protection, and declines all communication with the Osmanlis. It is even imagined that he has entered into a treaty with the Greeks of the Archipelago, and that he carries on •a very close correspondence with them, as well relating to Commercial Affairs as to affording them aid in their noble contest against the Osmanlis. It is now certain that the insur rection of Macedonia extends to the gulf of Enos. All the peninsula of Mount Athos, be tween the gulf of Thessalonia and Orfano, is in arms. It is added, that the Bulgarians, embol dened by the successes of the Macedonians, have raised the standard of revolt against the Otto man Porte. " NUREMBERG, JULY 9.1.—1 t is affirmed that all hope is vanished of adjusting the differences betweenßussia` and the Porte. The Divan re fused the mediation'of Austria, and we expect daily to see the Manifesto of the two Imperial Courts respecting the affairs of Greece. On the other hand it appears the Porte has solicited the interference of England and France. " FRANKFORT, JULY 22. 7 —The reports of war against Turkey obtain more general credit. " ODESSA., JULY 3.—The Grand Seignior has sent a Memoir to Petersburgh, complaining against the Baron de Strogonofl•. The answer is not known, but it is imagined by some persons that he will be recalled and peace be preserved." Two Dutch Mails arrived this morning, which contain the following articles of intelligence :- 4 C ST. PETERSBURGIJ, J ULY 3.—The new Spanish Ambassador, the Chevalier de Salmon, has not yet been to have audience of his Majesty the Emperor, as the other foreign Ministers have who had arrived during his Majesty's ab sence. His Majesty wishes to wait till the,poli tical relations between Spain and Russia are more decidedly established. " HAMBUItCH, JULY 24.—Accounts from Pe tersburgh of the 7th inst. say, that the Emperor was expected to return on the 9th to Zaiskojeselo from his visit to the military Colonies in the Go vernment of Novogorod. " llis Majesty the King of Sweden set out from Stockholm on the 17th, on his journey to Norway, accompanied by Admiral Cederstrom, General Tawast, and many other persons. It is thought his Majesty will not he at Christiania before the Session of the Diet is closed. His Majesty has appointed a Regency, consisting of two Ministers and two Councillors of State, for the time of his absence. C 1 A Swedish Journal, which always receives 'its intelligence from good authority, has lately published a very long article tending to allay the apprehensions of those who are afraid that differences may arise between the people of Norway and Sweden. The corps which is to be encamped. near Christiania, and which is to be reviewed by the King, will consist partly of Swedish and partly of Norwegian troops. Ac counts from Carlscrona say, that some ships of war were to sail in a few clays, to cruise in the Norwegian Seas.—(Four Swedish brigs passed the Sound on the 16th, "steering towards Nor way. Some frigates and 15 gun-boats were ex pected.) " BERLIN, JULY 19.-Isis Majesty arrrived on the 17th, at Potsdam, in good health, from his visit to the Provinces on the Rhine. GC The news of the unhappy infatuation of young Von II , who has made public a truly insane invitation to rebellion and disorders, has every where excited indignation mingled with pity. Ills father served with distinction in the Prussian army, but died early, and the education of 4 children remained to be directed by the mother. A sense of the father's services induced the King to show particular favour to the Issiaow. The eldest son followed his father's footsteps : the confidence of the Monarch placed him in an enviable situation near the throne, and he main . tained himself in it with honour. The youngest son (who is .the one here in question) also served in the war against the French, with distinction and courage. But the violence of his passions hurried him into an attachment contrary to the approbation of his relations, at a time when he had not obtained any employment. He lost all command of himself, and became raving mad.— Iternote hopes, and employment of his disordered understanding, restored his reason in the sequel. —He obtained an office in the administration of the Forests, in which he had shewn himself skilled. Having been from his youth of an eccentric disposition, it is most probable that he 'has relapsed into the mental alienation with which he was formerly afflicted.•---(Ditith papers, 41,y 22.) people decorating their houses with 13ritisli oak, &c. Appro priate devices were displred, and shops shut up, proclaimed a holiday. - At twelve o'clock, a dinner of beef and mutton, bread and ale, which had tram provided by' public subscription, was given to the poor, to the amount of 2,009 men, women, and children. A dinner was provided at the Brixham National School for the gentlemen and tradesmen of the place, at which about .50 sat doWn; P. Gillard, Esq. President, and Captain Cumby, R. N. Vice-President.—Lancing commenced at eight, with a party of CO couple, in the upper room of the National School, tastefully decorated fur the occasion. Four o'clock on Friday morning closed the festive scene with " God save the King." KIMBOLTON.—Ms Majesty's Coronation was celebrated at Kimbolton with every expression of loyalty and unanimity of sentiment. Ten fat sheep were distributed to the parishioners ; and in the evening the men were plentifully supplied with ale, and their wives and children with tea.—Booths were erected upon the green; and a cold dinner provided. The band per formed several national airs, and the day was spent in the most perfect harmony and conviviality, every one partaking in the general joy.—There was a dance for the neighbouring villagers, and the town was illuminated at night. Ac I.E.—A very excellent dinner of plumb puddings, roast beef and mutton, was provided, together with five barrels of beer, to which near 400 persons sat down. The health of his Majesty was drank, &c. ASH C K EN.— The poor, 167 in number, were regaled with a very plentiful dinner of plumb puddings and three roast- ed sheep, by Win. 'Herring, Esq. of that parish. COSSEY.—Sir George and Lady Jerningham presented a handsome donation. - A subscription made amongst principal inhabitants, and the park was opened to the villagers. At four, 'o'clock 700 persons sat down to dinner at tables previously con structed in the open air, and were most comfortably regaled with meat, -bread, and ale. The band of the village (which is very good) played during the entertainment, and dancing soon after was commenced and kept up till near ten o'clock, when the festival concluded by a display of fire-works. The whole was excellently conducted, and the enjoyment of the villagers was complete. DItEWSTEIGNT recording the numerous festi vities upon the Coronation-day, we ought not to omit those of Drewsteignton. This place, eelebrate - d "in the olden time" as the seat of Druidical discipline, deserves to be no less so in the present sera for loyalty to its Sovereign. All the gentlemen of t.le parish, headed by their worthy Rector, gave a handsome banquet to its many hundred inhabitants ; an d the bells rang in merry unison with " God save the King," " Long lire the King," " May the King live for ever !" Amen. Tiro v it N .—TI ie day was hailed with rapturous ex pressions of joy by the loyal inhabitants of Thorverton. The bells were rung, and the band of music played and sung God save the King, and other appropriate tunes. A hogshead of cider and a quantity of bread were distributed to the poor under the direction of the Minister and some of the most respectable inhabitants, and the day concluded in general denionstrations of harmony and lOyralty. T E n.—The Coronation day . was ushered in by joy ous bells, which kept - up their merry peals until its terniination. The day was kept here a holiday:--a holiday of the heart—a day on which political feeling reated, or rather was attuned to con cord and perfect harmony. At one, after divine service, the consisting of a party of the ltlth Hussars, the 49th Foot, and the Waterford Stall, formed on the parade, and fir ed, in capital style, three rounds, as a feu.de-joie ; the firing was succeeded by four rounds of huzzas, in which the entire population appeared to participate. At night the city was, with the usual and unavoidable exceptions, a blaze of illu mination. The concourse of spectators was never within me. mory so numerous in our streets, never more happy, never more inoffensive. (To be continued-) *.* For 1. G. N., see the First Page.

" VIENNA, JULY 11.—From a private commu nication it has been observed, especially of late, that the Austrian Obserrer is much inclined to spread reports unfavourable to the Greeks, and to represent their cause as hopeless. Whenever an opportunity offers, it praises the disci pline and conduct of the Turks in Walla chia, and vehemently reproaches the troops of Ypsilanti. The same is the case with other jour nals published in Austria. From this and other circumstances, it is inferred, that some persons of influence in our Ministry would regret the establishment of the independence of Greece, and earnestly desire that things should remain in Turkey in the same state. The present re lations between Russia and the Porte alarm them ; they will by no means agree that war may break out between those two Powers : and as they cannot deceive themselves so far as to overlook the conduct of the Porte to Baron Strogonoff, they load that Minister with the most violent invectives, saying that he has exceeded his powers, and has interfered in the internal concerns of the Porte : that his con duct has been calculated to excite the displeasure of the Sultan, and the Divan, and that his Court must publicly disavow his proceedings and recal him, with an apology to the Porte.—From all the letters which deserve any credit, it appears that those Gentlemen will soon be better informed."— ( llague Courant, JUIN 23.) Charleston Papers were received this morning :0 the 9.4 th of June last : By the schoonor Jane, arrived yesterday, we received a file of llavaunah Papers to the 15th inst., by which we learn the arrival of the United States sloop Hornet, w hich sailed from Pensacola on the 3d inst.

THE CONSTITUTIONAL ASSOCIATION.—We have attentively examined the proceedings on the re cent trial of MARY ANN CARLILE, at the prose cution of this Society; and we have vigilantly watched the conduct and language of the avowed enemies of the Association since, in order to dis cover if, on that occasion, any evidence had been produced of improper agency on the part of the Constitutional Association, or even if there had been any circumstances which the ingenuity or malice of its opponents could so distort, as to sup port the charge of unlawful or corrupt agency. 'We rejoice to say (and we can say it without the probability of contradiction) that there has been neither. Though our sentiments respecting the ex pediency of the measures pursued by the Society are pretty well known, we rejoice sincerely at the tri umphant attitude in which it still stands, be= cause we should be sorry indeed to find that an Institution, comprising many of the first charac ters in . the country amongst its members, and having a most laudable object, the protection of the laws, institutions, am:Nconstitutron, of the empire from violation, 'tad either been illegally constituted. _or had committed itself - by the em ployment ofnitlawful or even improper means for the furtherance of its purposes. So far as the conduct of the Society itt the case of MARY ANN CARLILE is concerned, there has now been, ample time for the malice and ingenuity of its enemies to give the worst possible colouring to Its proceedings ; and it cannot but be gratifying to the Association, and to the friends of Good Order in general, to find that ingenuity has ex hausted itself in vain, and that the malice of its enemies has proved nothing but their own impo. tence. The manner.in which they have gloatd over the escape of CARLILE, notwithstanding their admissions of the wicked and mischievous tendency of the proceedings of that family, shews any thing but a sincere respect for the laws, or a desire to see justice impartially administered. Indeed one of them, in the ebullition of his hatred to the Constitutional Association, went so far as to express a belief that if CARLILE had been tried at the instance of any other prosecutor, the Jury would not have hesitated to pronounce her guilty. This is far from being a compliment to the Jury with whose conduct they affect to be so well satisfied. The simple question for them to consider was the guilt or innocence of the ac cused. They were bound by their oaths to de termine on the criminality or innocence of the publication charged to be libellous, and on the fact of its having been published by the party charged in the indictment ;—and not on theld gality or illegality of the Society by which the prosecution was preferred. If, disregarding the evidence produced before them, and by whit*'' alone they were sworn to decide, one or snore of the Jury thought fit to attend to a mere alleosa tion which was not at all submitted to their con sideration, and regarding which no evidence whatever had been produced, —and if they per sifted in deciding against evidence, from consi derations entirely foreign to their duty, it is easy to see that their conduct affords any thing but a , triumph to the enemies of the Society, and only an escape, not a victory, to the party put LW's' her trial.—The dismiss a l o f the Jury, without a verdict, was a mischievous precedent,which maY in future be regretted. We have great pleasure in referring O r Readers. to an advertisement in the front pagcy completely exculpatory of the character of Mr . BODKIN, Honorary Secretary to the mENDIcror SOCIETY, from a charge preferred against him lY' the managing proprietor of The Times newspaper' On his MAJEsTy's first visit to Drury-Lan e Theatre, The Times had thought fit, with its usual disregard to truth, to indulge in ,positive assertions, as from its own knowledge and ob servation, that the audience had been packed/ &c. &c.
