LONDO,
IUESDAY, LI( 31.

We have already announced that Ills MA:!sry
will go this day in the usual gate to the ll,iuse of
Peer., to proroguo the Parliament wi:h a Speech
from t:te throne. A similar excited
so much interest for a long time. The.-e is no
light iu which it can be rimed that clJes not afford

the most pleasing prospe3. All it. consequences
will be grateful to the individual, and benefi-
cial to thc public. His MAJENry's appearance, in
the aelual exercise of his function:, will dispel all
the doubts and tears which his late i'doess excited.
and inspire an universal kiire in the stabiii:y
of the present system. every id.lividual it wiil
also be a source of j•,y and congratulation, as dis-
playing, in full and perfeel health, a beloved Sove-
reign, who has ever proved hint 1t the father st:* his
people.

We have received P.uis Pape:, to the Clst inst.
BON A!&RTE left twat City on the 13th to insp•aci the
c.tmps upon the coast. "file disgusting pageant y uC
this gaudy puppet, in his new ltnperial lasi;ini,s, oc-
cupies a large space in these papers. No caricature
could represent him in a more ludicrous situation,
than that which his own vanity has chos.m.

It is now known that ar,tollier Note will be pre-
sented to the Diet of Ratisbon, by the Rt.SSI•I:
Ass n ss,Ano a, concerning the occtipatn of Har-
over by Buts • r Aar soldizrs, iu still stronger
terms than those contained in that of Baron !ik-
on+. Letters from St. Petersburgh mention that
orders have already been sent to R itisbon, and that
copies of this note have been distributed to all tht
Members of the Foreign Diplomatic Corp; in Rus-
sidt. In it is said, " that the EXPCROR finds
his guaranty violated and disrespaled, and the
peace of the Continent disturbed, because, as long
as an hostile army oppresses Hanover, Germany
is at war and not at peace. Suppose that an Eng-
lish or Russian army should land on the banks of
the Elbe, attack in Hanover the foreign invaders,
combat them, and pursue them to Holland, or to
France, could the German Empire then be said to
be at peace, when three foreign nations were fight.
ing for one of the German states ? and has not the
Emperor of Russia, as a guaranty, and the
King of ENGL•t4D, as Sovereign, more right,
nay, it is their duty, to deliver Hanover from
its invaders, than France to attack it without pro-
vocation, and to oppress it without resistance ?
These considerations, and others of the same descrip-
tion. are of such a nature, that they call upon all the
Members of the Diet, and upon the supreme Chief
of the German Empire, to take immediate steps to
force the foreign invaders to evacuate the German
territory, as, in a contrary case, their impolitic en-
durance, and dangerous temporisation, may extend
the evils of the war, and involve the Continent in
all those horrors it had been obliged to endure from
the ambition of France during these last twelve
years. Usited, they may yet prescribe boundaties
to a government which knows and respens no laws
but those of power, and which threatens all Europe
with its cruel and heavy fetters."

These lines are contained in a letter from a fo-
reign nobleman, travelling in Rassia, to his coun-
tryman here ; he adds, that at St. Petersburgh
they regard this step as a certain fore-runner to a
declaration of war against France; and that a treaty,
offensive and defensive, between Russia, Enalana,
and Turkey, is either concluded, or in a short time
will take place.

Sunday evening the ROYAL FAMILY walked on
the Terrace, at Windsor, from 7 to 8 o'clock ; liis
Ma.tes r v conversed with the Earl Russt.v si,Bishops
of Oxrofto and Nottwicit, the Rev. Dr. GOODALL,
and a number of other persons of d;stinAion. tier
MAJxsTv's hand, and the band of the Stafford:lnc
Militia attended and played for the amusemmt of
the ROYAL PARTY and the company. The terrace
was so extremely crowded, and the pressure so great
to see the ROYAL FAMILY, Oat a French Lady
(tinted, and was with the greatest difficulty removed
out of the crowd.

This morning, the ROYAL FAMILY are expeCed
at the QUALM'S 1-louse from Windsor. About two
o'enck His M 4.165 T V will go in state to the House
of Peers to close the Sessions of Parliament with a
Speech from the Throne.
The following intelligence was announced yes-
terday at ',tor n's, from a is,:oe-Volk Newspaper
nt the '2sth of June:—•• Captain DAVIS. of the
s'iip &lb., from the hie of France, informs us
that Admiral Imo's' squadron arrived there the
Ist of A;;!il from the Straits of Sunda, and that nn
their passage they had fulle.t in with the British
homeward-bound China Let tinder convoy of sir
line of battle sh'ps. Thu,: outward-bound India-
men had been taken by the French and carried into
the Isle of France, from whence dispatches were
sent off in a frigate for France about 20 days before
the S.* sailed. An embargo was expeded to be
I laid on all vessels immediately after the sailing of
the Sally."

The Brest fleet have at length chewn a disposi-
tion to put to sea. Dispatches were received yes-
terday, which state, that on Wednesday last, when
the fog cleared, a squadron of five sail of the line,
two frigates, and a corvette, under Admiral G
r c AVMI, were trying to effect their escape from
the outer road of Brest through the Pas.age dri
Roe. The look-out cutter, immedixely up•"n dis-
covering the enemy, made the signal to \ ice-Ad-
miral GitAv is, who instantly chased. GAN
TIIKALMIL direilly hauled his wind, and work...i
ba' k into the outer road of Brest. l'he enemy's
flivt is in perfett readir,c;s for sailing, and hope to
get out during a fog. Fogs have i itcly been so
thick upon the French coast, that our ships have
been forced to make fog signals, to preveut their
running ltd of tack other.
