Had the Ministry from the first attacked the influence of this party, and not spared the adherents of the former Administration, the re sult would have been different, as the KING ob served on Friday morning to the Ministers— "llell, Gentlemen, we shall have bad elections at Paris; you would spare the Centre, you see it has not spared -you."—But all was not victory on Friday for the Centre—the death of the Duke de IticnELlEu was a terrible blow to it ; he was its head, and, without being aware of it, its hope and support. It is thought the Central party will be broken up by his death, as it is well known that M. LALNE was only retained at a distance from the extreme right in the hope o f the Duke returning to power, which always floated before his eyes. This chimera having NatliSlit'd, every one will take his place according to hiS opinions, and it is possible the left may thus inherit two or three discontented Members, with whom the right refuse to associate. Aew York Papers arrived this morning to the 2 d May, from which we extract the following:— LFrorn the New York Gazette of the 30th April.] The National Intelligencer states, that in the course of the debate in the House of Represen tatives on the appropriation for carrying into effect the article of the Treaty with Spain, it Was stated by Mr. TUCKER of Virginia, from autho rity which he relied upon, that a Minister had b een appointed from Mexico to this country, who might be expected to arrive in the 'United States within three weeks. [From the Norfolk Paper of the 28th April.] FROM MONTE VIDEO.—We have contradic tory accounts relative to a serious inundation which occurred in most of the Provinces, which is said to have destroyed the crops of grain. —We Should be glad to give some authentic on the above subject. Accounts from Sierra Leone state, that the 41101, of the American Colony had departed for C ape Messurado, a new settlement, on the 15th February : the colony was healthy. he Bill for granting 50,0001. for the employ ment of the poor in Ireland was last night read a third time in the House of Lords and passed.— 'rhou g h it was observed that this - sum is not more than a shilling per head for the vast numbers who are destitute of employment and subsistence, and t hough we agree in the opinion that it is by no means sufficient for effecting the purpose intended, Yet it must be considered that when 50,0001. is extraordinarily thrown into circulation through the medium of wages paid to the labouring classes, its effects do not cease with the first pay n'eLlt to the workmen, nor with the first transfer which these again make of the amo unt of wages received by them to the dea lers in the necessaries of life. It does not See._ In to b e well understood that every time any g i ven sum of money changes hands, it acts anew 4s a stimulus t o p ro d uc ti on, equa l to i ts current ‘4lll e ; and therefore that it creates new em- Pl o Ynlent at every fresh transfer.

AMERICAN INTERCOURSE.— The proceedings in Congress shew the spirit and feeling of the people of the United States against this country, and the recommendation to prohibit the importation of fo reign spirits into the United States places those Members of the British Government who are the Advocates of throwing open our Colonial Trade to American Shipping in rather an unenviable po sition, and convinces us that before the PRESENT Bills had been introduced into Parliament, they should have afforded opportunities to the British North American Colonists and the Shipping In terest to be heard against them. WEST INDIA. INTERCOURSE.-11l our remarks on this subject yesterday there was an error of the press, and the last paragraph should have kern—'G which will spew the competency of " British North America to supply, WITH the " Mother Country, at cheap rates, in British 44 Shipping, all the articles required by the West 44 India Planters." - , A Meeting took place yesterday at the Crown and Anchor Tavern, for the pUrpose of cele brating " the Fifteenth Anniversary of the Triumph of IVestminster and Purity of Election," meaning the election of Sir FRANCIS BuItDETT, as one of the representatives of that city. We believe that the public are too well acquainted with the nature of that " purity," in the se veral elections of the Honourable Baronet, to need any comment from us upon the occasion.— Among the company were—Lord Ebrington, Lord N ugent , Sir R. Fergusson, th e Honourable G. Bennet, Sir R. Wilson, J. Hume, Esq., Sir M. Barrett, Colonel Johnson, D r . Lushing ton, D. Ricardo, Esq. , P. Moore, Esq., Sir G. Robinson,- Hon. C. Hutchinson, J. B. Monck, Esq., Hon. 1). Kinnaird, Alderman Wood, &c. &c. As soon as the cloth was removed, The CHAIRMAN gave " The People—the only source of Legitimate Power ;" which was drunk with applause. Air, " Britons strike home." The CHAIRMAN next gave—" The King, and may he re collect his own declaration, that the Crown is held in trust for the benefit of the People." Air—" Rule Britannia." The next toast was—" The only remedy for our national grievances—a full, fair, and free Representation of the People in the Commons' House of Parliament." Air—." Kick the Rogues out." Mr. STURCH then addressed the company on the usual topics introduced on such occasions, paying compliments to Sir FRANCIS, and propos ing his health. The Baronet of course thanked the company, and in the progress of his speech adverted "to the alleged corruption in the House of Commons. He said " The late Speaker of the house of Commons, then Mr. Abbott, pretended at least to be greatly shocked at discovering a traffic in seats in the House, though no man was probably more intimately acquainted with the Practice; but now all was changed, and no one seemed to be startled at such conduct." Such was the liberal delicacy of the Baronet with respect to a character, who is now an orna ment to the Peerage, and an honour to the Country. The Baronet in reference to Mr. CAN NING'S speech at the recent Literary Fund Din ner, who mentioned COMA CHATEAUBRIAND as the person who had essentially contributed to revive Monarchical principles and Christian virtue, said "it appeared to him that there were no two things so inconsistent with each other as the monarchical and the christian principle." In fact, it might be supposed, if his speech is truly reported, that his aim was to bring monarchy into contempt ; for styling HoRNE TooKEas " a great, able and honest m an w h om the Electors of Westminster and the Freemen of England should never forget," he quoted his words, which were " Monarchy we abhor but Kingship we admit." The Baronet did not attempt. to explain this paradox, but proceeded to give his own opinion that " undoubtedly the Constitution of England was no Monarchy. What was the prin ciple of Monarchy ? In the, language of the Poet it was that which " taught to realms undone, The monstrous faith of many made for one." Such was not the principle of the English Constitution, much less was it the principle of Christianity. The principle of Christianity was opposed to the pride of illonarchy,by its humi lity and all its other characteristics. The great teacher of Chris tianity sacrificed himself for the good of mankind, but when were monarchical doctrines ever known to inculcate the virtue of personal sacrifices for the benefit of the community ? No thing, therefore, appeared more absurd than to assimilate the principle of monarchy to that of Christianity, and of the Eng lish Constitution. These sentiments appeared to be very accept able ; and after observing that the Baronet deplored the imprisonment of Mr. Hunt, and spoke highly in his favour, we trust that we have given a sufficient sample of the com plexion of the Meeting, and need not re cord the speeches of Mr. llobhouse, Lord EBRINGTON, Mr. RICARDO, who all seemed to act upon the old principle of—" Do you tickle me, and I will scratch you"—for they highly eulogized the eloquence of each other, and it must be confessed that, with a very few ex ceptions, the orators in general seemed to be equally entitled to the praise of elognence.— Messrs. LAMBTON, WHITBREAD and LEFEVRE, are said to have been prevented from attend ing, by the alarming illness of the Dowager Countess GREY, their relation, and Lord JOHN RUSSELL, by indisposition. BRIGHTON, MAY 22. A. London Paper, of yesterday, tells us that the KING is on the eve of returning to the Pavillion ; and the cause, a succession of splendid entertainments to be given there, to the Prince and Princess of PENIVIARK. Upon this statement we must observe, that not an iota of what has been alluded to is known at the Palace here. The work of general improvement, as we have before observed, there goes on, for the completion or suspension of which, at any given time, not an order, neither directly nor indirectly has been re ceived, nor, from present communications, is any such order anticipated. A this time, the whole of the carpets of the grand suite of rooms are away ; the ifurnicrure generally is covered up, and artists a nd wor k men are leisurely employed in the se veral apartments. It would give us pleasure, very much plea sure, to report otherwise; and therefore it may be rationally con cluded that we shall take the earliest opportunity of doing so_ but our reports must, as they always have been, invariably be guided by truth--to " lie like truth," not making any part of our avocation. His Excellency the Marquis WELLESLEY, With his characteristic munificence, has subscribed five hundred pounds to the fund for the relief of the poor in Munster and Connaught. DENMARK TO THE KING. , Yesterday being the day appointed for the in troduction of the Prince and Princess of DEN MARK to his MAJ ESTY, a Grand Entertainment was given at the KING'S Palace on the occasion. A Guard of Honour, composed of the Grenadier Guards, marched into the Palace-yard at half-past six o'clock, preceded by the Band of the First Regiment of Foot Guards. The Duke of YORK and the Princess AUGUSTA arrived soon after, the band playing " God save the King." The Prince and Princess of DENMARK arrived at half-past six, with their4Gentleman and Lady in Waiting, and others of their suite, in two carriages. Their Royal Highnesses were reuived by, a party of the Yeoman Guard, who lined the grand hall, the Tiatid playing " God save the King." The Gentlemen Porters and the Pages appeared in their Corona tion uniforms. Lord ST. HELENS, the Lord in Waiting, con ducted their Royal Highnesses into the Royal Closet, where his MAJESTY was ready to re ceive them, accompanied by the Duke of YORK and Princess AUGUSTA. After their gracious re ception the K ING conducted them to the Royal Banquet, prepared in the State Drawing-room, where there were present besides : The Prince and Princess Esterhazy, Baron Fagel, the Ne therlands Ambassador, Count . and Countess Lieven, Mon sieur de Chateaubriand, the French Ambassador, Count and Countess Munster, the Danish Mi n i ster , Monsieur de Molleto, and several other Foreign Ambassadors and Ministers. The Marquis of Londonderry, the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, and his Marchioness, Earl Bathurst, Secretary of State for the Colonial Department, and his Countess, Earl of Liverpool, and several other Cabinet Ministers, and their La dies, the Great Officers of State, and their Ladies. Mier the dinner party, the KING had a splendid evening party, which did not break up till a late hour. DEAL, MAY 22. Their Royal Highnesses the Duke and Duchess of CLARENCE are now on a visit at Walmer Castle, for the benefit of her Royal Highness's health. Nothing could exceed the demonstrations of joy and satis faction shewn by all classes of people on their arrival in this neighbourhood ; and on Monday, the Mayor and Corporation of Deal had the honour of paying their respects to their Royal Highnesses. They were introduced by Sir EDWARD OWE and were most graciously received. The following are the answers of their Royal Highnesses to the loyal and affectionate Addresses which were presented to them on the occasion:— REPLY OF HIS ROYAL HIGHNESS. " GEN T ME N-i receive with great pleasure your assur ances of dutiful and loyal attachment to the King, and of af fectionate regard for his Majesty's family. I feel most sen sibly your attentions towards myself, and return you my sin cere thanks for your anxious wishes respecting the health of the Duchess. I shall ever be interested in the welfare of the town of Deal, so nearly connected with the naval interests of t'ais empire." REPLY OF HEIL ROYAL HIGHNESS. "GENTLEMEN—I thank you for your congratulations on my safe arrival at this place, and do assure you I have returned here with peculiar satisfaction, recollecting the handsome manner in which I was received by the inhabitants of this Borough on my first landing in this country. I shall ever he anxious for the prosperity of the town of Deal, and am sin cerely grateful for your kind wishes respecting my future health and welfare." FASHIONABLE ARRIVALS.

Sir Charles Hulse, Bart. had a distinguished party to dinner yesterday at his house in Burlington -street. General Ross had a select party to dinner yesterday at his house in Portland-place. ALMACK'S.—The Ball given at these elegant rooms on Wednesday evening was more brilliant than any preceding one this season. Dancing commenced at eleven o'clock, and did not break up till past four yesterday morning. There were present upwards of 400 persons of the first rank, distinction, arid I fashion. HANOVER SQUARE.-The annual Concert of Mr. W. KNYVETT took place in these rooms List night, and, as usual, was attended by a splended and numerous audience. The selection, vocal and instrumental, was excellent, and such as might be expected from his talents, judgment and experience. The orchestra was well sup plied with first-rate Performers, led by Mr. F. CRAMER, one of the most able Performers of the day. The vocal corps ,was supported by Messrs. VAUGHAN, W. KNYVETT, BELLAMY, lIAWES, J. B. SALE, and Master SMITH, Mrs. SALMON, Miss STEPHENS, Miss TRAVIS, and Madame CAMPORESE. We never heard LINDLEY with more pleasure than his accompaniment to " Gentle airs" afforded, and it was sung with beautiful simplicity by VAUGHAN. The Glee " 0 can ye se .v cushions," newly har monized by Mr. W. KNYVETT, was so well sup ported by himself, VAUGHAN, SALE, and Miss STEPHENS, that it was encored. BO CHSA gave a Fantasia on the harp with admirable skill, and Mr. J. CRAMER delighted the audience with his taste and extraordinary execution on the piano forte. The first act concluded with the Anthem composed expressly for the Coronation of his pre sent M AJESTY, by Mr. W. KNT VETT. It is a grand and impressive composition, highly creditable to his science, taste and feelings. 'We have not room to dilate on the merits of the second act, which was supported by the same vocal performers, and which concluded with a scene from Israel in Egypt, " The Lord shall reign for ever and ever," in which Miss STEPHENS gave with great beauty and force "The Horse and his Rider," and the company were detained by the general excellence of the night to the conclusion of the concert. BELzoNx, the traleller, has had the honour of being presented to the Emperor of RUSSIA in a private au dience.

INTRODUCTION OF THE PRINCE AND PRINCESS OF FOR THE SUN. THE MONUMENT. MR. EDITOR—There is a little inscription in conspicuous characters upon that elegant Column, which at this time it may be proper to notice, as many of our Senators may not hitherto have had an eye to it. It runs thus : This Pillar was set up in perpetual remembrance Of that most dreadful Burning of this Protestant City, Begun and carried on by the treachery of a Popish Faction, In the year of our Lord 1666; In order to the cairying on of their horrid Plot For extirpating the Protestant Religion And old English Liberty; and for the introduction Of Popery and Slavery. ARGUS, ' DISTRESS IN IRELAND. TO THE EDITOR. SIR-Having had most accurate information relative to the unfortunate state of Ireland, (several months since) and having been the first person to suggest the idea of a general Subscription "(From the mite of the Widow to the larger donation of the Prince and Princess)" for the pur pose of protectin , r the Peasantry from Famine a nd P e stil e n ce , I beg leave to inform you, from authority, on which you, and the Public may rely, that it is the intention of his Most Gra cious Majesty —not only to patronize, but Personally to ap pear at TILE SUPERB BALI. to be given at THE KING's THEATRG, IN AID of the FUND for the BENEFIT of the STARVING PEASANTRY Of IRELAND !--If, Sir, you (with your accustomed kindness) and the other Liberal Editors of the Daily and Weekly Papers, will do me the great favor to make this Most Gracio u s a c t o f b enevo l ence and condescension on the part of his Majesty known to the world,—when ascertain- ed in Ireland—it will do more towards tranquillizing that de- ' lightful, yet unfortunate country, than ever could be effected by One Hundred Thousand Bayonets ! I have the honour to be, Sir, Your most obedient, HUGH DOHERTY. 44, Jermyn.street, St. James's, 21st May, 22. UNIVERSITY INTELLIGENCE.

Their Royal Highnesses the Dukes of York and Gloucester, Duke of Wellington, the French Ambassador, Lords Sefton, Derby, Stewart, &c. ar,, , d as great a show of beauty and fashion as we ever before witnessed on any similar occasion, visited the Downs this day.

UNIVERSITY. TOWN. First innings Second ditto - 132 I First innings - 77 I Second ditto - 74 - 134 CORONATION DlLAWlNGS.—lmmediately after the Coronation, Sir G. NAYLER, Clarencieux King of Arms, announced an historical and descriptive account of'that august ceremony. The work was undertaken at the command of his MAJESTY, and was intended to gratify the curious in future dines, or those of our contemporaries who were not present, with a full view of all that passed on the occasion. Sir GEORGE'S heraldric labours are already far advanced, and promise fair to be completed„ not only with a surprising accu racy of detail, but with great splendour of effect. Besides a full and authentic description of the various ceremonies ob servedon the occasion, the work will be enriched with about 70 engravings, more than 50 of which will be portraits of the re presentatives of the different officers who figured in the splendid pageant, and 16 will be views of different portions of the cere mony. We have been favoured with s sight of the coloured drawings of the scenes and persons, so far as tite are finished, from which these engravings are to be made, and we are happy to bear testimony to their truth of delineation and richness of execution. Out of the sixteen representations of the most im portant parts of the ceremony, six are ready, together with a proportional number of drawings of costume. We were parti cularly struck with the views of " Presenting the Regalia," of " The first course of the Dinner in Westminster Hall," of the " Coronation" and " Recognition" in the Abbey. The correctness of design, the depth and richness of effect in these drawings, do great credit to the artists, and will reflect equal credit on the work which they are brought to illustrate. A grand Review of' Cavalry will, we under stand, take place on llounslow Heath on Thursday next, at which the Prince and Princess of Denmark will be present. The corps to be reviewed are the 9th, the 10th, and 16th Regi ments of Dragoons, with the Life Guards, and Horse Guards Blue. OLD BAILEY -(T1 15 DAY.) This morning the Court was crowded to ex cess to witness the trial of Ann Mountford, charged with the wilful murder of her own infant, Lucy Mountford, aged eight months, by severing its head from the body by a sharp instrument.— On the Judges coming into Court she was placed at the bar; her appearance was mild and becoming, but her countenance bore a wild sort of smile.—To the indictment she pleaded Not Guilty. The first witness was Mary Ireland, who lodged in the same house with the prisoner.— She proved the incoherent behaviour of the un happy womon on the morning the dreadful oc currence took place; and her having said she had murdered her child, and wished to be hanged. Robert Cranch, a constable, took the prisoner into custody ; he asked her what induced her to commit the rash act; she replied she had been un comfortable in her mind for some time ; " she once possessed the good things of the Lord, but now had lost them ;" she had attempted to hailg herself three weeks before'she killed the child, but could not do it ; she had tried the same morn ing at the wheel loom, but could not accomplish it ; she had selected the youngest child because she thought she could kill it the easiest. Several other persons were called on behalf of the prosecution, but all their evidence in some re spect tended to prove the insanity of the prisoner. This being the case for the prosecution, Mr. Justice BAILEY called on the prisoner for her defence. She said, " 1 would sooner die than. go borne to my family." Two persons proved her to be afflicted with an hereditary madness. Mr. Justice BAYLEY here interrupted the case, and asked the Jury if they were satisfied ; they replied 44 yes, as to the prisoner's insanity ;" they then returned a verdict of Guilty, but that the prisoner was not of sound mind when she committed the offence.—This verdict subjects her to be imprisoned for life.

ALßrol. - ..—A Gentleman arrived at Cork, from Liverpool, on the sth instant, to whom a box, containing 5,0001. in specie, had been transmitted by the Albion, of which no trace had been discovered. To the preservation of the re sidue of the ship, and part of the cargo spared by a raring sea, Mr. Mark, the respectable American Consul, h a d-paid every atrention, but from the almost inaccessible cliff's that overhung the spot where the wreck lay, and the demolition caused by the influx of each succeeding tide, his efforts could not have that success his asxiety may otherwise have been rewarded with. This rendered the sale of the remaining part of the wreck ne cessary ' • and when we state that, on Friday se'ennight, it pro duced by publication only 401. 16s. 6d. though th e sa l e was attended by numerous purchasers, an estimate may be formed how little was left.—(Liverpool Advertiser.)

EXECUTION.-This morning, Edward Ward and John Anson were executed at the usual place in the Old Bailey, for a burglary in the house of' Mr. Platt of Greenford. • —These unfortunate men were ordered for execution on Wed nesday, with their companions in the robbery, but, from some representation made, it was postponed, to give an opportunity of inquiring into the correctness of the statement.' Unfortu nately for them, the result of the inquiry was not satisfactory, and an order came to the gaol yesterday to carry the sentence into effect. This morning, Mr. Sheriff VENABLES attended at eight o'clock in the press-room, when the unfortunate m e n . were brought in, and divested of their irons, during which tim e they conducted themselves in the most becoming manner : they appeared to be persons that had moved in a respectable walk of . life. 'Ward !acknowledged having, at his outset in iniquity, began by passing bad notes —Anson appeared to possess great firmness of mind, and delivered, with strong emphasis and de votion, an extempore prayer, at the conclusion of whit he . thanked Mr. Sheriff VENABLES for his kind attention, and 're quested him to cause to be conveyed to a friend something that. would be found in his left waistcoat pocket.—The unfortunate men were then conveyed to the fatal drop, when, at a few minutes past eight, it fell, and this world closed on them for ever : W and struggled very much. It being quite unexpected that the execution would take place, but a few persons were present ; even the worthy Sheriff himself said he did not ex pect it would have' taken place.—Desmond, the companion of Davis in committing the burglary in Lincoln's-inn-fields, has been finally reprieved.
