It teas known publicly, prior to this, that the Rw- CENT ::tended to honour the yacht with his pre ! . sei ne ; the confluence of spectat‘o's, therefore, to behold him embark was very great, .among whoni groups of elegant km des st ere conspicuous. ht., Aoyal Highness appeared 1:1061 gratified, and te• turned the numer ous ot - respect with an ease and elegance of manner that much increased the iuteres: of the scene. The State barge from the yacht, with a canopy aft, and the Royal. Standard, at this time was seen snaking for the shore; but this his Royal High 'less did not wait for, hilt get.ing bioud the im rnediate in-shore shallow 'driver, by ascending a bathing machine, wlth all possible ease and faci lity, descended the trout steps into ihe six oared-cutter of the Tigris frigate. which was run Alonside to receive him ; the two Admirals, &c. followed. As soon as t• e boat wa.: aflu the popu lace hnzzaed anti the ladies wavid tneir handker chiefs.

At this is au , Royal 'salutes were fired fr,, m the Grenim (a brig of wear), ft , d !t. e sloou tacht of Sir William Curtis, which, th Sit William, came it yesterday. During the swin g ,the ostler, enve'oped in soole, made pro ltre.a for the Royal Gemge, which it speedily reached, when the Royal Staodlrti was hoisted at "le main, and the Royal salutes, in thundering reports, were repeated by the several vessels. The spectacle al , ogether was as brilliant as interesting, allri may be better imagined than described. Soon after his Royal H ighness had hoarded the lacht, the vessel stood out irom the westward, followed by the ships of war, and all soon dis appeared. Seven o'clock, P.

April 2, 1814. Next to the satisfaction whi..lt Lord ST. VINCP.NT woiild feel from conquering his coon try's enemies in hi; own.person, is that of seeing then; successfully combated by others who had learned the art of virto'ri under his eye and from . ltis example. the present was therefore a most grateful one. Calitain i'aiiitta is the eon of Mr. PALMIER, the justly celefirated,Comp!roller of the Post•ollice, and the inventor of mail-coaches, a system by which more than by any other discovery of mo dern tittles, the internal commerce and civil inter course of this country have been facilitated. It is well known that his MAJESTY'S present ma lady originated from the loss of his favourite daughter, the Princess AMELIA. Many anecdotes have, at different times, appeared of what the King has said. or done during keid intervals, most of which probably rest on no good authority. There is one, however, of au interesting nature, which being indisputably authentic, we have much plea sifre in recording. in the cloisters of St. George's .Chapel, Windsor, there is a Tablet, -which was erected by his Majesty's command, about four months after the commencement of 'illness; at a time when the weekly bulletin of the Physcians was, " His Majesty proceeds favourably iii his recovery." The inscription placed on the Tablet by the King's direction, is as follows KING GEORGE the THIRD • caused to be interred near this place the body of MARY GASCOIGN, Servant to the late PRINCE S S AMELIA, and this Tablet to be erected in testimony of hi grateful sense of the faithful services and attachment of an amiable young %% pow] to his beloved daughter, whom she survived only three months. She died the 19th February, 1811, Aged 31 years. Tag PERPsTUAL MoTIoN.—An Hibernian Phi. losopher, who does not yet condescend to an nounce his nan►e, has advertised in the Irish ['a. per, his discosery of -tuts long sought and hitherto recondite secret. He intorms . us, that it cost him only three hours study and three minutes' lab our. For this, however, he modestly asks no other re• compenee than the trifling stun of three hundred thousand pounds; which if nut made up for him by subscription forthwith, he will' indignantlY take hi• secret•and himself to some wiser country. He prudently forbears telling wlrat it is, but he is abundantly eomitutuicative in telling us what it is not •--as we learn from his advertisment, that the machine - is neither complex nor perishable, and that it is moved ni ither by animal labour, steam, wind, water, nor any other known agency.--Per baps he will set it up in Mr. OwEN's new village. EGYPTIAN ANTIQUITIES. —We have learnt with great pleasure that Egypt still continues to afford to our residents and travellers in that country a rice. harvest of discovery. ‘Ye are led to expect s:.ortly from Mr. SALTS, our Consul-General in that counta y, a more correct transcript of the in scription on the column of DIOCLETIAN (COM moldy called . that of POMPEY) than has hitherto appeared ; "end we understand that the same ar dent traveller, assisted by a foreign officer of the name of CAPIGLIO, has not only succeeded in transp , oting from Thebes very interesting frag ments of Egyptian sculpture, tint has also disco vered a passage cut in the solid rock 400 feet in length, under the great pyramid, with chambers at the lower extremity, and a communication with the mysterious well, which has hitherto puzzled ail our antiquaries and trawllers.

It seems that Miss PENLEY, a very interesting Actress and amiable young womart, was performing with an English Comp iffyCumediansat Valenciennes, and was o have a benefit on. the Tuesday. 'All her boxes were iet, and shy had reason to expel t a very profitable night. On The 'Monday the French troop of Comedians arrived, and the hopes of Miss PEntt...o were extinguished by a refusal to let the Theatre he opened except for the French Com. patty. With a laudable-impulse Of humanity and British spirit, OXIIERRY addreSsed the subjoined letter to TALMA. lhr tragic Hero, howeverovas too lofty to condescend to write all answer him self, and then, fore sent an AMBASSADOR and PLR.. NIPOPENTIARY, to expkin and adjust matters, but particularly to demand an apol.gy of OXBERRY for that passage of his letter, ‘ehich, as one part of an alternative, intimated the possibility that TAL:4A had not improved by his travels. Ox. BERRY, however, though not a tragic hero, was disposed to spew that he possessed more than mere comic spirit, for he declared to the AMBAS SADOR and PLENIPOTENTIARY, that it %vets a rule with an Englishman never to make an apology when he was in the right, and therefore ridieolous in a Frenchman to require one.--. The AmaAs- SADOR and PLENIPOTENTIARY seemed to be struck with this . emphatic trait of the British character, and retreated, with such an abundance of cow.• teous gesticulations aid 'grimaces, that Oxsanwt was enauled to supply his ,comic treasury wills additional stores for the true Grotesque : " Valeta:4ll,les, Aug. 1.

Messrs. 0:Oen y and rcnley, 1 am informed, waited the whole of ‘Veduestlay, expecting some apology from the French Manager. for his illiberal and unjust conduct to them and the English company of comedians-; but not receiving any, the annexed letter was fur yarded to M. .who, on reading it, solicited an interview with the English Manager, informed him tha; two English Generals had just called to pay their respects, and after amusing him with innumerable trifles equally vain and ridiculous, requested he would inform Mr. Oxberry, that he was ignorant of the whole proceeding, wished hhn a good morn ing, declared nothing would give him greater pleasure than to see him in Paris (a short journey of 150 miles), and that he would there shear bins what a grateful recollection he enterta tied of the hospitable and generous conduct he had expe rienced in England."
