That offered for th e absence of the Earl of ALBEMARLE. by his frle nci Mr. MACDONALD, was rather singular, and n" very complimentary to the company, to the Inern °rY of Mr. Fox, to the liberality and spirit °I. t he Noble Earl, nor to the good sense er dis cretion of his advocate,—Mr. MACDONALD, after i ng eulogized the Noble Earl's public simply stated that " these were not days HI which it was quite so convenient for a country Gentleman, especially if he had vested all his ca pital ut the soil, to travel fifty or sixty miles to cultivate any principles, however much he might admire them ! "—ln the course of his Pe ech Mr. MACDONALD made repeated attempts to be sarcastic at the expence of the PITT but nothing surely could equal the ludi crous effect of his apology for the absence of his °hle F riend,--nothing could be more happily e°ll triv'ed t o cover the Noble Earl, his Apologist, " 4 the OX Club itself, with ridicule, than the "rave assertion that the Earl of ALaEMAi&LE t could not afford the expence of a journey of fifty : i ll ") for the purpose of cult i vat i ng the princi s es Oa which the Club is founded.—The several tPeakera frequently boasted of the numerous at- Ildo n th ce at the dinner; but from the character of t hl t i c 'kes, and the general tendency and strain of t i e ' t eloquence ; the applause bestowed upon SO P Dosser strokes of their humour, and the Nl cctpliments paid to " the true Suffolk Ye°. strap T ye'' as being " the heart, sinews, and I atu of the country," it is evident that they It the y Were addressing an assemblage not re ilarkable for a very high state of intellect, and : d ed that their numbers had been merely . elled by some of the suffering farmers of the 41`.41)ourhood, naturally dissatisfied with the poisting depression of their interests, and dis ill" to listen greedily to the harangues of o p r Y Par ty which profess e s to off e r th em th e h 3 P e ct of relief.

This day the KING held the drawing-room at Holyrood palace, and after a lapse of nearly two centuries, this, ancient edifice, where often " feasted the chiefs of Scotland's power," became again the centre of splendour and chivalrous gaiety. The court-yard and quadrangle displayed the usual attend ants in their state liveries ; troops of Dragoons kept the avenues to the palace open for privileged company. The archers remained as a guard of honour in the corridors. So early as eleven o'clock the company were setting down. It is needless to state they consisted of the principal part of the nobility and gentry of Scotland. The gentlemen were mostly in military dresses; but the ladies looked to great advantage: they are in ge neral taller than the ladies of England, and their rich plumes of ostrich feathers were exhibited with superior effect. The dresses were niciatly white satin, tastefully ornamented with a profusion of lama. There were about 3,000 personages at Court, and the novel appearance of so splendid an assemblage at Holyrood Palace wait ; extremely gratifying to the northern lovers of Court Ceremonies and royal etiquette. - 'The King arrived at half past two o'clock in his travelling chariot, drawn by six horses, from Dalkeit_h. His Majesty wore a fail Field Marshal's uniform, and was received at the private en. trance by all the officers of state. He did not stop in any of the ante-chambers, but proceeded directly to the drawing-room, which is in the suite of apartments formerly occupied by the French Royal Family, in the right wing of the quadrangle. - The company in attendance for presentation were previously admitted into the suite of apartments in the opposite part of the palace,from whence they had a passage to the drawing-room through a gallery facing the park, and subsequently egress from the north corner of the building. The King appeared in good health, and better spirits than he has manifested since his arrival in Edinburgh. Crowds of well-dressed persons, did particularly ladies, were in waiting to greet his Majesty upon his arrival at Holyrood ; and he repeatedly bowed, and often laughed heartily in acknowledging the earnest though often ludicrous efforts of the crowd to evade the military escort, and get a closer view of the Royal person. The day proved wet and unfavour able for those whose gratification could only be indulged in the street, hut all within the Palace was gay and magnificent. Not a word of political arrangements transpires at Court. • The King entertains daily a select party of private frionds at Dalkeith —no political partiality is evinced upon these occa sions. The Earls of Fife and Rosslyn have repeatedly had the honour of enjoying these invitations. The principal public business and correspondence with Ministers in London is car ried on by Lord Melville and Mr. Peel. The latter has two secretaries, who are constantly employed, and he is generally unable, until between five and six o'clock in the evening:, to set out with Lord Melville to Melville Castle. The ordinary offi cial business is transacted in a suite of apartments at the Wa terloo Hotel. ( From the Edinburgh Obsrrver of Ticnsday,) The Commission from the Church which presented the Ad. dress yesterday, niAst have struck his Majesty with considera ble surprise ; it was undoubtedly known to hhn beforehand that the members of the Church of Scotland are not all necessarily Clergymen ; but what is known by report only, does not pre vent the whole of the effect of surprise when the eye first meets a new object. Segius irritant animos demissa per aures, Quam gum aunt oculis subjecta fidelibus. Military, and Highland, and other dresses, appeared amongst those of the clerical order, as the proper costume of the members of the Church, producing au effect of which the, most accurate previous unocular knowledge could not altogethbr destroy the novelty. We must recollect that his Majesty, in receiving Ad dresses from clerical bodies, has hitherto been accustomed only to black dresses. In this respect it must have been a perfectly new sight to his Majesty ; and all new sights pro duce new sensations. One of the strongest sensations that must arise in the mind of any man, upon seeing what the people of other countries, accustomed to other clerical appearances, would be inclined to call an heterogeneous mixture of pro fession and ranks and offices in life, would be the considera tion, that the Church was not here limited to a particular set of men, but was composed of all the people of the country ; and, reasoning from such an observation, he would discover the clue that would explain what secret influence threiV so much decorum and propriety of conduct over the crowds 4114 assembled to witness his Majesty's landing. The intimate connexion between, or rather the identity of, the church and the people, cannot but have some effect ; and if any, a bene ficial one ; that connexion or identity was visibly represented to his Majesty by the intermixture of the gay regimentals, and varied tartans of the Nobility and Gentry, with the grave habits of the Ministers, on presenting the following ADDRESS FROM THE CHURCH OF SCOTLAND. " Most Gracious Sovereign—We, the 411inisters and Elders of the Church of Scotland, met as a Commission of the Gcnerea Assembly, and the Representative Body of the whole Church, beg leave, with profound respect, to approach your Majesty's Throne, and to present to your Majesty - the strongest and most solemn assurances of our veneration, affection, and loyalty. " We most sincerely and most joyfully congratulate your Majesty on yonr - safe'arrival in Scotland ; and we congratulate Scotland on that most auspicious event—an event in which we feel the highest exultation, and from which we anticipate the happiest consequences. " To this day your Majesty's subjects in Scotland have looked forward with joyful expectation ; and to this day they will look back as a day of glory to their native land. " At the annual meetings cf our National Church, we have esteemed it a high honour to behold your Majesty's represen tative ; and through him to receive your Majesty's most graci ous assurances of maintaining inviolate our rights and privi leges as by law established. But we cannot express what we feel, when, within the precincts of your ancient kingdom of Scot/and, we behold your Majesty in person—a King distin guished by every splendid endowment, and graced by every elegant accomplishment —at once the safeguard of our country and the bulwark of our church. " From the first momenrthat your Majesty undertook the charge of public affairs, the Providence of God has beamed upon you with a bright effulgence. By the wisdom of your Majesty's counsels, and the vigour of your arms, your Majesty was enabled, by the blessing of Almighty God, to frustrate the formidable attempts of a gigantic power which, grasping at universal empire, threatened to destroy the independence of Europe ; and that same Providence, we trust, will still con tinue to encompass your Majesty as with a shield, and, over ali your glory, to create a defence. " As portion of your Majesty's subjects, we express our warmest gratitude for the honour your Majesty has done to our country by most graciously condescending to visit it; and we trust, that when your Majesty returns from your Scottish dorn;- nions, you will be able to say, that in this part of the Unit/ti Kingdom you have seen a people who love their God, Weir Country, and their King. " As the constituted Representatives of the Church of ‘cot land, we present to your Majesty our heartfelt thanks for the many signal favours which your Majesty has been pleased to confer upoa us; and, as the best return which we can make for your Majesty's goodness, we beg leave to assure your Majesty,' that it shall be our study, in our respective districts, to dis charge, with fidelity and seal. the duty committed to our trust; and to encourage loyalty and submission to the laws, as equally indispensable to both public and private prosperity. " We will labour to impress upon the people committed to our care a high sense of the invaluable blessings of our glorious and happy Constitution. We will teach them to fear God, to honour their King, and to connect the principles of religion with a dutiful obedience to the laws of their.country. " That your Majesty may long sway the 'Neal sceptre over a great, a free, a loyal, a happy, and an united people that your Majesty may long enjoy the blessing ofhealth, and every comfort which this : world cah afford—and that at length that your Majesty may inherit a kingdom Which cannot i moved, and a crown of glory which fadeth not away, are our most sin .cere and fervent prayers. (Signed) " DAVID LAMONT, Moderator." Yesterday his Majesty admitted the Deputation from the Episcopal Clergy of Scotland, consisting of—Bishotis Jolly, Sandford, .Tory y, Skinner, Lowe. Presbyters.—Rev. Mr. Alison, Mr. Walker, Dr. Russell, Mr. Horseley, Mr. Cruickshanks, Mr. MOrehead, when the following address was by the ev. H. Hors • " TO THE KING'S atosT EXCELLENT MAJESTY. '" May it please your Majesty,—We, your I` ; lajesty's dutiful and loyal subjects, the Bishops and Clergy of the .Scottish Episcopal Church, beg leave humbly to approach your'Royal Presence, with expressions of our most heartfelt attachment and loyalty to your Majesty's sacred person and government. " So many years have passed away since Scotland was hon oured by the presence of its Sovereign that to behold your Ma jesty in the palace of the long line of our ancient Monarchs__ your Majesty's royal ancestors—is, to ua, as it must be to . every true Seotchinan, a matter of pride and exultation ; and in this house, more especially, do we feel ourselves prompted by these emotions, to declare, that - within the wide compass of your Majesty's dominions are no where to be found hearts more loyal than those which beat in the breasts of the Scottish Epis copalians. • " The devoted attachment uniformly.displayed by the Mem bers'Of out Church to him whom they have considered as their legitimate Sovereign, is so well known to you! Majesty, that it would be waste of time to repeat it here ; and is, indeed, amply vouched by the lowly station which we, her Bilops,, now, hold in civil society. Your Majesty likewise knows that ow relhticus principles and forms of worship are thesame• with those of the Church of England, from which, indeed, we twice derived our Episcopacy, when it had been lost at home ; .and whilat we arc sincerely grateful for the toleration of these principles and . the free exercise of the rites of our worship, we feel thank is to your ,Maiesty's gracious consideration, and that of your Royal Father, that our gratitude is in a peculiar manner'due. " We would not occupy too much of your Majesty's time by protestations of our loyalty ; but we Must lieglesiersolenutly.,so declare, in your royal presence, that viewing, in your Majesty's sacred person, the lineal descendant of the Royal Family of Scotland, and the legitiMate possessor of the British throne, we • feel to your Majesty that devoted attachment which ouiprin ciples assure us is due to our rightful Sovereign ; and that should evil days ever come upon your Majesty's Royallfoose of Brunswick, (which may God of his infinite mercy avert) the House of Brunswick will find that the Scottish Episcopalians arc ready to endure for it as much as they have suffered for the. House of Stuart, and with heart and hand to convince the world, that in their breasts a firm attachment to the religion of their fathers is inseparably continued with unshaken loyalty to their King. " That your Majesty may long reign over a happy and united people, to maintain that peace and prosperity, which the wis, dom of your Majesty's Counsels, and the vigour of your arms have, by the providence of God, achieved for them, is the ear nest prayer of " Your Majesty's " Most dutiful and loyal Subjects."

LEAMINGTON, AUG. 21.—The Duchess of Gloucester and the Princess Augusta returned here last evening, soon after six o'clock, from their Royal Highnesses' call on the Earl and Countess of Craven, at Combe Abbey, near Coventry. The Princess Augusta and a select party dined with the Royal Duchess.—This morning, at five minutes past eight o'clock, the Princess Augusta, attended by Miss \Vinyard and Dr. Bright, followed by two footmen, came to the Pump-room. Her Royal Highness was received as usual by the band with " God save the King." The Duchess of Gloucester, attended by Lady Isabella Thynne and Colonel Higgins, followed soon alter and joined the company of the Princess. The Princeaies since their stay here have viewed Kenilworth Castle and most of the curiosities in the surrounding country, which excite the attention of strangers, and they have visited Mr. Mills, at Barford, and most of the neighbouring gentry. Mr. Canning is now on a visit at Storrs, the beautiful rti dence of John Bolton, Esq. on the banks of Windermere Lake. On Friday next the Right Honourable (lentieman will dine with the Canning Club.

On Friday last, while one of the Breadalbane Highlanders was standing in the High-street, Edinburgh, two young men, having the appearance of gentlemen, accosted him abruptly, by inquiring which Clan he belonged to. , " What I Clan do Mang to," says the Highlander, " what Clan do ye belong to voursel ?"--" Why, I belong to none," replied the other. " Then," observed the Highlander, " sin ye hae nae Clan o' your air, ye canna be muckle interested in mine !" The observation received a show of applause from upivards of half a dozen of auditors, to the great annoyance of the interro gators, who slunk away, highly mortified: Yesterday the Lotto MAY on went Alwyn the River, attended by the Water Bailiff rind other officers under him, as Conservator of the Thames, for the put pose of mak:4u.; inquiry into the cause of a complaint against the proprietors of some land at the spot where the River Medway joins the Thames. During the Alayoratty of Alder man Wood, the Fishermen applied to the Chief Magistrate for his interference to prevent certain persons who laid claim to , the Creek called Yantlet Creek, from .ilestro - Ying the fisheries about that part of the river, an attempt having been actually made to stop up the Creek alto gether. Alderman Wood without delay repaired to the place, and having .ascertained that the City of London had an undeniable right to the property disputed, th:ew open the Creek, and up to the present time it has remained in the• state of the other property marked out as being within the jurisdiction of the Chief Magistrate of the City of London.. Some new reasons, how ever, it seems, have been hit upon for supposing that Yantlet Creek should be destroyed, and the Lord Mayor consented to go down and receive presentments on the subject. This creek has been known to preserve numbers of lives. It presents a complete protection against the high winds which blow down the Medway,. and all small craft on such OCCASIQUS get at once into a safe harbour, P 0 I: T It Y. • BLACK ARTS. • Three Dealers inßldth Art: allure the town, Each striving for pre-ethinent renown • I<lAivrz f , who long has had, and Bolds, his DAY ; • arnhitioUs . of superior sway; itS F:1!., whose Boots reflect like 'mirrors fair, • . .

The peak of yon mountain is shining in light, Like the beacon which summoned our fathera to tight : Each Chief from the Highlands has followed the blaze, At the call of his Monarch his standard to raise: The sleep of the heathcocl; is peaceful and still, For the pibroch has summoned the Sons of the Hill I'7e have left the red deer to be lord.of the glen, And by tens and by fifties have mustered our men. Yet the dirk and the broadsword may serve but to show That to welcome a foeman we had not been slow ; We haste where yon vessel approaches the land, But it is not for battle we press to the strand. Our Chieftains they crowd. rour.d the greatest of all, The first in the field, and the first in the hall, To so mighty a Master 'tis given to few, So fair and so willing a liGiliage t() dQ. No Master but he, for his frown or his smiles, Could cell from his mountain the Lord of the Isla, To him, and no other, in duty would bow, The plume of the eagle on T flr.nr..Arrn's brow.
