- LONDON,
THURSDAY. MAY M.

Yesterday, His Mamas made his first appear-
ance in public since bis late indisposition. About
twelve o'clock be set out firm the Queen's Palace
in a coach, actxmlpanied by Her NIAJ errs', and the
Princesses Aunt:sea and ELIZA BET followed
by another carriage, in 141:1n were the Princesses
Kann, Seems, and AU F. LI 1, escorted by a party
of Light Horse. The Royal Cavalcade passed
through the principal streets and squares in the
west end of the town, proceeded to Hamp-
stead and Highgate, and returned by the D-ke
of BED a. re's Buildings, Coreiu-Garden, and d
the Strand to the Vieen's House, where the
B l'arty arrived about three o'clock. His
litaiscrx looted extremely well, and sat forward
in the carriage, a: if for the purpose of gratifying
the anxious desks of his affeclionate subjeets to
behold their b:'-ire,l Sovereign restored to health
and happiness. About four o'clock, be gave
an audience to Mr. Parr, which lasts until
nearly six. A soot of or memorial has been
sent to Mr. Ptrr by the friends of Mr. Fur, in-

eluding the Marquis of &CM:46NA m, Earls CAR-
LISLE, SPENCER, and Firzwittiam, Lord Gees-
emit, Mr. T. CIENVILI.E, Mr. WiNelian, &c.
in which they state their reasons fur declining to take
part in any new Administration from which Mr. Fox
was excluded. This letter was written for the purpose
of being submitted to HisMaitsr v,and, no doubt,was
communicated to him by Mr. PITT, at the audience
of yesterday. Mr. PITT, we understand, is not ad-
verse to Mr. Fos, who may be considered as uniting
in his support all the leading men of the country in
rank, talent, character, and property. We are san-
guine in hope that this recommendation will have
the desired etrea, and remove any opinion which
His blastsry has hitherto entertained unfavour-
able to Mr. Fox. We are confident that this is the
universal wish of the country, with the exception of
a few—indeed a very few individuals. We mean
wine persons Who, whether for Opposition or Ad-
ministration, whether bellowing for BON P UT e. or
Mr. Arintxuroa, always shew the cloven foot.
They .exclaim, " Do not let Mr. Fox into the
Cabinet, he will prostrate the country at the
foot of BONAPARTE. He will make an inime-
diate peace." Indeed! We would ask those
profound politicians who will be the other members
of the Cabinet?—Will Earl SPENCER, Lord Ger.:.
vi Lir., and Mr. WIND( Al[, sit quietly by, and
suffer Mr. Fox to advise His Masesry to sign the
death warrant of the country by an inglorious
and imprudent peace? sad are these bold, sturdy,
and honest Enzlishmen to be in a moment con-
verted into the poor humble tools and creatures
of Mr. Fox ? The very question shews the absurdity
of the objection. At another time they say, " Those
who speculate upon a change of Ministry will pro-
bably tind themselves disappointed ; but if there is
to be a change let us have Mr. Pirr alone. Wlat
cordiality could there be in a Cabinet composed of
Mr. PIT r, the Gm eavi LL es, and the FONITES ?" This
position is equally false as the former. Every man
who is not blinded by prejudice, or misled by party,
may anticipate a great deal of good from a
Cabinet, composed of men of various charac-
ters, provided they are men of talent and infor-
mation. We can easily conceive much benefit
likely toresult from the pacific temper of Mr. Fox
operating upon the perhaps too warlike temper of
Mr. Wiens/in. We can easily conceive much
good as likely to result from the perhaps too haugh-
ty temper of Lord GREW, ILt. E, operating upon
the plops too mild temper of Mr. Fox. It wean
V a INIRie of time to dwell longer upon this %%Neel.
Thaaawbo say there ought to be but one opinion
in the Cabinet, no doubt believe, and are ready to
assert, that neither House of Parliament should
debate or div;de upon any question. Until some-
thing decisive has taken place respening Mr. Fox,
it cannot be supposed that any material progress
can be made towards the formation of the new
Ministry. All that can be stated with any degree
of prohability is, that Lord 'qui-11.LE has been
Appointed First Lord of the Admiralty hi the room
of Lord ST. VINCZNT, and that Sir ROGLR CL IS-
Tis and Commissioner llsre are to succeed Capt.
Masao am and Sir THOMAS 'FRIA:BRIDGE. Lord
Kearn, it is said, is also to have a seat at the Ad-
miralty Board.

Yesterday, at half-past one o'clock, a Cabinet
Council was lied at Lord 11A W L II R .% °Ace,
which w-as attended by Mr. AonuNoros, Lords
liaweessrey and HosaßT, Viscount CAsTLt.
It LAOIS, Earls CH•INAM, and WEST MOREL AND,ind
several others. The Cowell sat till three o'clock.

A Military
Council at nis (Ace in the Horse Guards, whirl

On Sunday night, Dispatches, said to be of im-
portance, with sealed orders, wore received by the
Port Admiral from the Admiralty, express by a
Messenger. They were immediately pat on board
Mr. T. Locev ha's hired armed schooner Cis'peas,

supposed for the Streights.
The Windbor C0m1.., of 5$ guns, came into Ply-

logne Bay with an intention of cutting out two
brigs .which lay close in. bet a calm eorniag on

MR. WINOTTAWA tICTORL

TILE rctlVisH Pa ESS of Monday captained an ar.
tide, stating that at a Quarter Arernirly of the s
Corporation of Norwich, held on ThUredity last, Mr.
Windham's Piaure produced A very interesting die.
cussiun, The subjea was brought fOrward in the
Common Council, ,tnA the City i.,•pmpiittee declared 1
that they had not granted permission to have ie
placed in St. Andrew's Hall. It was therefore
moved that it should be taken down ; and after
a warns debate a division took place, when there
appeared,
ro, tie removal tithe picture 9O
Apiti4 it lt
The resolution was carried to the. Aldermen, and
rejeCted by a majority of I ; upon which a moo-
ference was requested, and three gentlemen were
appointed from each body, who resolved that the
pieture should remain, but that in future, no pieture
or portrait whatever should he placed in the public sl
hall, without the consent and approbetirn of the
Corporation at large. 4
A Committee was then appointed to request
Chrrles Harvey, Esq. lie., i'd'r of that cif y, to per_
mit his piaure to be pa:.;.-d, and to placed in
St. Andrew's Hall.
This mode of rewarding patriots, by hanging aP
their pif sir,e, we should think cannot be very sates-
faCtory to the Orieilletv. The contests about Mr,
Grattan's picture, in the College of Duftn, are '
fresh in every recollection. This day it was km:
up, next day it was token down: WI that Mr. Grattan
had no certainty of a moment's possession of this
high and distinguished honour. Instead then of the
party's own picture, we presume it would be more
grateful to him to receive a few of the King's Pit-
lures. George Rose, and a few other great states-
men, who have deserved well of their country, we
know are decidedly of this opinion. Or, should not
this be convenient, instead of taking the pieture down
when the original offends, or the donor changes his
mind, we would recommend it to be only turned
with its face to the wall. This would save a greet
deal of trouble when the original came into favour
again, and the piaure was to he reinstated. It was
in this manner a very beautiful Lady now resident
at Bath used to punish her loves. When out of
favour, she turned their portraits, with which her
chamber was hung, with their faces to the well. In
this state of permanent punishment they remained
a memento of their faults and of their disgrace, con-
stantly reminding her of their offence aad eheril-
ing her resentment ; Whereas, it the picture had
been taken down, and removed from her sight, 'he
offender and the offence would have been soon for-
gotten.
