Lbt'lS ATM,

On Tuesday last, a Scene occurred at the Pan-
theft'', Oxford-street, which, if it should conic to
the knowledge of the irascible Tyrunt of France,
would convince him that the true French, when
out of the reach of his bayonets, tivk now ledge ano-
ther Sovereign than himself.
Since Louis the XVlllth's arriral in London,
his love for the arts and sciences caused him to
visit all the public edifices and curious establish-
ments of this metropolis. On Tuesday last, at
two o'clock, accompanied by the Prince de Conde,
lie entered the Cosmorama, to see the ingenious
and incomparable astronomical otitablishinent of
L'Abbe Vinson. On his entrance, His Majesty
was very agreeably surprised to s..e himself sur-
rounded by more than 400 French Emigrants,
whom a desire to see their toifortunate, but much-
beloved king, had attracted there, and to whom
the Abbe Vinson could not refuse entrance iuti4 Iris
public establishment. This numerous and faith-
ful crowd, conformably to the orders of Louis the
XVlllth, did not shout their accustomed try of
Vire le lloi ! Vice le Rui !" His Majesty wish-
ing to remain incognito :—But the tears of j:lr that
ran down their cheeks, and the emotion of every
heart, and of even Louis the XVIIIth, sufficiently
spewed that he was in the midst of his most faith-
ful and dearest subjects. During the expla-
natory lecture of the Abbe Vinson, Louis the
XVIIIth made some ingeuiour remarks on the ob-
jects explained to him, and, on his retiring, he
said to the Abbe Vinson, with the Recent and
emotion of a father, for whom one had procured
the sight of his dear children ; lout ce que rocs

du civics.. But it was perhaps the greatest source
of enjoyment to him, to whom these words were
addressed, since lie had the happiness of bringing
together, in his public establishment, his country-
men and his lawful Sovereign. The English crowd
who were assembled at the door of the Pandicoui
thought it not their duty to imitate the silence of
the French assembled in the interior ; for, on Louie
the XVIIIth coming out, they received hiat with
many repeated shouts of .1 huzza! huzza !" &e,
and, from the highest windows of the neighbouring
houses, many people, waving their handkerchiefs
and their hats, proved the pleasure which his pre-
sence afforded them, and the interest with which
he insi, rev the English nation ; who, in expecta-
tion of a more happy moment, generously receives
into their capital himself, his august family, and
all his loyal and faithful subjects.
