Sovereign.
From un early hour in the morning many thou.
sands of persons in carriages, on horseback, and
on foot, hastened out to meet our revered Sove-
reign, and the road was thronged for miles with
cuuntless multitudes. A anima gun announced
to the eagerly-expecting inhabitants of the city and
neighbourhood the approach of the Monarch ; their
expectations were further heightened when a
royal salute 'hewed that the Monarch was at
land ; the loudest acclainstions resounded as
noun us the royal carriage came in sight. His Ma-
jesty bad let down the windows, and saluted in the
mat gracious manner the numerous and rejoicing
mutt:hide who were particularly thronged in the
vicinity of the Palace. At Herrenhaussen his Ma-

uf Brunswick, the Minibters.the chief officers of the

Gad save she King, and the royal standard was
hoisted on the Palace; at the same moment the
court-yard of the Palace was filled by an inuu-
tunable assemblage, who broke out into the most
rethusiastic transports when his Majesty sheered him-
self at the window. His Majesty, sensible of the
wisher of the etre emiog crowd, came into the balcony
between his royal sisters-imlaw, and bowing repeat.
erily, moot gracefully saluted the delighted mul-
titude, who kept up an uninterrupted hurrah !
His Majesty had the goodness to indulge his af-
fectionate people with the sight of hint for at least
ten minutes ; and after he had repeatedly ac-
knowledged the loud testimonies of the loyalty
of the Hanoveriair, withdrew into his apart-
rants. As the court-yard still continued to be
tilled with new crowds eager to behold their So-
Nereigii, his Majesty had the condescension again
to Meer himself twice in the balcony, and was
again sainted with the most unequivocal expres-
atolls of joy and gratitude. The Bth of October
has been a festival ; it gave the inhabitants of the
empire' their beloved Sovereign for the second time.

the Palace gate by the Minister of State. Count
•Hardenberg ; by Count Kielmausegge. Master of

just been fitted out. and are to sail to-mo►row for
the same destination. Towards the end of hut
month sterna detachments were sent along the
cost to prevent any clandestine landing. At the
Paine time the authorities along the sea shore
received orders to redouble their vigilance. Thus,
thanks to the assiduity of the local authorities, the
apprehensions which we at first entertained are en-
tirely dissipated, and public tranquillity has not
been disturbed for • moment."

The affairs of Turkey appear exclusively to de.
copy the Austrian Cabinet. The extrsordin*

has slot been discontinued. Prince Metternich be.
frequent interviews with the Ministers of the Great
Powers. Sonic of them were on the point of leav-
ing Vienna ; their journey is deferred. Our Cabiuet
is making every possible effort lest it should be
drat*u into a war. The Austrian Internuocio hes
settersl times offered his services, which were accept-
ed byl the Porte, but of which Russia does net
seem hitherto to have availed herself. It would be
very disagreeable to our Court to be obliged to de-
clare itself, having personally no motive for war,
but rather inclining to the preservation of the
Turkish Empire.

excesses which took place in his Stites during the
last revolution ; with so exclusion from the pardon
of the individuals who are, or may be known as

those who. by their speeches, or distributing money,
sought to shake the fidelity of the troops ; those
who, charged with the instruction of youth. made
them take part is the seditious assemblages;
those who, by their writino's,„, assisted in the over-
throw of the Legitimate Government ; those who
have been guilty of homicide, or of abstraction
of money for their own profit front the public

PHILADELPHIA, SLPTEMBER 13.
We find in the Havannah Paper of the 28th
August, from which we made a short translation on
Tuesday, &diary of the siege of Vera Cruz, from the
let August inclusive, written by an inhabitant of
that place. It describes particularly the assaults
suede by the besiegers, the Independent., the sorties
of the garrison, and the destruction committed in
the town by the bombs of the assailants. Five hun-
dred of the latter penetrated into the streets on the
7th; but were finally repulsed with a !nag, in
killed, wounded, and prirosiers, of from 250 to
300. This is the great victory upon which the
new Viceroy O'Donoju congratulate.' the inha-
bitants in his proclamation, whose loos did not
amount to more than fifty in killed and wounded.
The siege continued, nevertheless, to be pushed
with vigour, and to dirtrers the town in an extreme
degree. The most interesting passages of the diary
are the following :
_

46 AUGUST 2.—The ship Asia has come to anchor
in this port, with the Viceroy O'Donoju ; he pro-
ceeded to-day to the Castle with his family, not a
little ill fear of the black vomit, and without a hope
J being able to. set out for Mexico. Yesterduy
Don Mariano Zurutuza arrived here from Mexico,
which place he left on the 22d last month (July)
and where nothing now had occuved, although
siege had been laid to it. Puebla capitulated to
the Insurgents ou the 26th ult. therefore the whole •
kingdom is now fur lturbide, except Mexico and
this place, where no little toil, and much risk of
life. await us."
The Viceroy of Mexico, Apodaca, Conde del
Venudito, whom O'Donoju was sent to supersede,
had already surrendered up ut Mexico both his
military and political command to Don Francisco
Novella, a Lieut.-General, at the request of the
officers and troops, sad upon condition that he
should be provided with a competent escort and
passports to set out, at Attlee for Vera Crux, op his
way to Spain. The next day, Bth July, his suc-
cessor, Novella, *witted at Mexico a proclamation.
On the 12th July Novella issued another and
very long Proclaniatiou addressed to the Mexicans,
in which he announced his determination to shed
the last drop of his blood to maintain the integrity
of the Spanish empire. We think, however, that
Mexico must have yielded to lturbide, especially
after the fall of Puebla, and the general defection
of the country from the rope' standard.
BALTIMOI2, sePTehIBER 14.
Captain Howell, from Saute Martha, arrived here
this morning, states that on the 14th of Augest an
embargo was laid in she port of Santa Martha, in
consequence of a report from Jamaica, that a
Spanish squadron had arrived there destined for
&vanilla. a small port at the north of the River
Magdalina, about 60 miles to leeward of Santa
Martha.
On the 24th ult, the embargo was raised; in the
mean time four schooners of war were fitted out
with great expedition and hauled out in the roads;
it has since appeared that the Spanish squedron
were from Porto Cavello, and probably pat into
Jamaica fur supplies; since which all has been
quiet, and the citizens generally appear much in
farmer of their new Government.
