imminent, has resigned. in a proclamation addressed to

rities, the public functionaries, ■nd the milillter that he
distinctly declared to them that he could not accept of

offered Wan; that the universal and repeated desires of
all the inhabitants and soldiers caused the ouly two chi-

oath to religion, the country, the constitutive, ■ad the

ing their aol 'ty, and the characters of the persons who
took the oath, lie is informed that several desire a Provisional
Junta. As he buds that he was deceived in 'opposing that
his acceptance of the Provisitmal Government was the una-
nimous wish of the citizens, be outsiders it to be inconsist-
ent with his character to retain It, and therefore desires that
they should choose some other form of goverument which
they may approve, and exhorts Ibsen to proceed with trau-
qoillity and moderation, to disregard the suggestions of the
passions, and to chimer citizens of acknowledged victor,
wisdom, and experience, acquainted with the interest of the
province, and thennolves interested in its welfare.
'Letters Cunt Bahia of the 19th April give an account of

on occasion of his Illaksty'a having acceded to the wishes of
his subjects of both hemispheres, in approving witlioot re-
strictiou the wise and very liberal Constitstion which is
forming in Portugal. The Senate had previously arranged a
very splendid procession and festival In commemoration of
this kraut, which was celebrated with a degree of pomp never
before seea at Bahia, and accompanied by the most enthu-
siastic demonstrations of the public joy.
The Mede d'Ouro, a Bahia Gazette, of the 18th of May,
states, that in the province of Rio Grande do Sul the Go-

read secretly. 'l•his mystery seems strange; the Kinc swore
to the Constitntiou, ordered it to be proclaimed in all
and Deputies to be elected to represest the several proiriucto
of Brazil to the Cartes of the nation. The Gazettes of Lis-
bon and Bahia contain uothieg contrary to the Constitution;
they declaim against abuse., which his Majesty has recog-
nised as such, and prepare the Portuguese of both hemi-
spheres fur cordial anion. What reason can there be that those

LONDON,
THURSDAY. Augur!. 16. 1811.

We announced yesterday the safe and happy ar-
rival of the Kuio in Dublin. His Maass-fir Cross-
ed the Channel, as our readers are aware, in the
Lightning steam packet, and seemed to have been
desirous, itscrnsequence of the melancholy intelli-
gence of, the.,4uEEN's decease, to have passed un-
noticed and unknown, from the landing-place at
Moth to the Vice-Rr.gal Lodge in the Plieenia
Palle. He did not conceive that the splendour and
festivity of
,thv joyertse entree which the citizen* of
Hubli,n, in. the oveitiowing loyalty of their Isearts„
haclpreptured for him, accorded with 11w mournful
chowder of the event which we have so lately wit-
alma; and his Msi4sTY, therefore, with equally
°WI . eood WY" tkflined the eioji.!

, .

&eat .14 truimphii towo•ri in bane a the &-
meat Shot his unhappy Consort was lying dead at
fianomemasitli. His MAJESTY landed in Ireland
about four o'clock on the evening of &today, the
latli of August. Which was the anniversary of his
birth. 411 111 ,weconsionv 4hot toad-been takes by'
the KIN• were ineffectual for the concealment of
his eaktkAm...weistecogiiised by muse pergolas on the.
shore almost a* ostou as the approach of the vessel
to the land permitted the possibility of distinguish-
log the features of the persons standing on the deck,
mid the heartfelt exclamation of joy and gratitude
that instantaneously burst from ■ crowd of persons
who had previously assembled on the beach, in the
hope of learning some tidings of the KING, proved
to his MAMMY how fervent and sincere was his
welcome. IN MaJatrry was plainly dressed in a
long blue coat, with blue trousers ; he had a black
handkerchief round his neck, and wore a seal-skin
travelling cap. Nothing could exceed the en-
thusiasm or the people at the moment of the
Kum's lauding, they crowded around him almost
to inconvenience, expressing by every means in
their power their ardent attachment to his person,
and many a rude hand familiarly clasped that of the
KING, who warmly returned the pressure. His MA-
JESTY appeared highly delighted with the mode of
his welcome. One of the royal carriages, which had
for a few days been kept in constant readiness at
Howth, wet quickly brought to the place of landing,
and his MAJESTY escaped into it from the over-
whelming affection of his faithful people. He waved
his cap to theta several times, said expressed his gra-
titude for the proof. they had given him of their
lore, and then drove off at a rapid pace fur the Vice-
Regal Lodge, where he arrived a little before six
o'clock. The carriage took u circuitous route. for the
purpose of avoiding the city. There was no military
guard in attendance on this occasion; the appear-
ance of troops could only have damped the ener-
getic expression of popular feeling, without adding
one atom to the security or dignity of the KING.
Queen ELIZABETH was in the habit of sling
that her beat exchequer was the pockets of her
people; her illustrious successor. GEORGE IV.
must have felt on this occasion that his best safe-
guards were the affections of his subjects.
The news of the KING'S arrival was spread ra-
pidly through Dublin, and a large concourse of
persons of all ranks had assembled at and about
the Vice-Regal Lodge to greet his &Werra. The
welcome was as ardent es his heart could wish. The
unexpected manner of the Kitts's arrival, the
P privacy and rapidity with which he proceeded to
the place of his residence, must have proved a
conside fable disappointment to the citizens of
Dublin, who boa made the most extensive and
costly preparations to receive his MAJESTY in a
manner worthy of his illustrious rank, mad be-
coming their own character. All, however, ingot
commend nod reverence the feeling that induced
the Kure to decline these expressions of public
joy. His MAJESTY proposed to observe the strictest
retirement for some few days after his arrival, but
many opportunities, we dowbt not, will prevent
themselves during the period of his lIIAJESTY'6 re-
sidence in Ireland, to compensate all parties for the
disappointmesat occasioned by the mode of his
landiug.

years past. Our delightful walls and rides are
much frequented in the mornings, and our libraries
are well attended. Marsh's exquisite musical pro-
menade 'hews the abilities of lily see and daughter
to much advantage, and alfords a most agreeable
and scientific treat. The inns seem to have their
share of visitants, end there is a liberal subscription
to the bells at the London Inn. Plersitre is never

Preparations are making to ventilate the Hay..
market Theatre on Doctor MET LBWS plan, the
advasitages of which were so folly established at
Covent-garden Theat►e towards the close of the lute
season. The benefit of a cool temperature of air,
free from the danger of current or any other sudden
or unequal influence, cannot be too highly appre-
ciated in a summer theatre.
The Treasury journals most violent iu their ran-
cour against tbew late unhappy Quasar. are now
endeavouring to exculpate themselves from the
charge of having accelerated her MAJESTY'S death:

a Than eanst nut say I did it : never shake
Thy gory locks at toe!'
The High Sheila' of Essex, on receiving infer.
nation ribtle at the Assizes of the death of the
QUEEN, had all the ribbancis and ornaments to his
horses taken of, and himself wore black.

ft does not appear certain, (rein the terms of her
late MAJESTY'S Will, that Government made any
specific promise of purchasing and presenting to her
Cambridge House. Her MAJESTY herself paid the
two first instalments, amounting to 9,000/. so that
only 6,0001. remain dee. For these she gave an
order on the next quarter's salary due at Michael-
mss, and for this only the house of Ramose and
Co. is guarantee and possesses the titles. There is
no doubt hut the house will sell for the whole sunk
of 15.0001. at which it war purchased for her MA-
JESTY, and this will Leave MOO. fur Mr. WIL-

dered the flags to be hoisted half-mast high on the

A gallant and truly meritorious action is related

An inquest vres held this day at the New Inn,'
in the Edgtvare•road, before ThoUlas
Esq. the Coroner, on the body of Richard Honey,
who was killed in the firing by the military near
Cumberland-gate yesterday. A little before three
the Coroner arrived, and the crier proCeeded to
epee the Court by proclamation in the atonal form,
after which the names of the perrons suns:noised
to serve on the Jury were called over, and the
Jury having been sworn, proceeded to the Ge-
neral Townshend public-house, in Oxford-street,
to view the body of the deceased. He appeared to
have been a good.looking respectable man, about
thirty years of age. On minoring his clothes a
small gon-shot wound under the left breast present-
ed itself to the view. A consideruble number of
atranrcs having entered the room with the Jury,
the Coroner. ordered that all who were not on the
inquest should withdraw, which haying been com-
plied with, the surgeons in attendance proceeded to
open the body, in the presence of the Coroner and
Jury.
At half-past three the Jury with the Coroner
returned to the New Inn, and their names having
bees called over, oil the wituess?s, except the first
to be examined, were ordered to withdraw. This
order was repented three or four times, and en-
forced by the Coroner, with a declaration, that any
person who staid in the room after that notice,
should not be heard in evidence.
