back, accompanied by a crowd of people, blessing
shouting, and acclaiming. His Royal Highness
was intensely assailed by this sort of acclamation.
From the time he arrived at Richmond House

hat was aluteet constantly in his hand. Several
other persona of distinction, Lords and Com.
wooers, followed unnoticed and unknown. At
length came a shout ll►at was heard from Pa-
lace-yard to Whitehall. It sn►ouoced the ap-
proach of the QUEEN. From the pres•are of
the populace, shouting and acclaiming with every
expression of affection, and closing in upon the
royal carriage, it 'advanced but slowly. The
sentinel, at the Treasury, as I►er NI AJRSTY
came •breast of them, presented arms. Witl► the
royal carriage the crowd which it had attracted
passed away, and followed her MAJESTY to
her residence in St. Jainev's.square, where she
arrived •tout five o'clock. The crowd I ollect.
ed in front of the bowie was very great. At their
solicitation her MAJESTY, although greatly fatigued,
graciously condescended to skew herself at the win-
dows, and her appearance nes hailed with expres-
sions of the most enthusiastic stitches.

with Papers to the 15th instate. The Com-
mittee appointed to prepare a Constitution for
Piusia have suvended their labours, the idea
of making an uniform constitutional system for
the whole Monarchy having been abandoned. An
expectation continues to prevail ih Germany, that
Austria will not interfere iu the political proceedings
in the Two Sicilies, unless she shall find the tranquil-
lity of Italy endangered. Several of the Italian
witnesses against the QUEEN have passed through
Brussels on their way to the Hague.

possession of the fort of Castellsenaire, where they defended
themselves until the 19t1t at night, but their ammunition

The people *bat them up in dungeons, where they are
guarded by the galley slaves who were let louse at the mo-
ment of the revolution. These, amounting to about 5,000,
joined with some hundred armed peasants, give law to the
whole city. Nevertheless, the Archbishop of Palermo has
convened a l'rovisional Junta, and called aronnd him the

The Prince Catolica was on the same day at the head of the
insurgents, but having thought for a moment that the coo.
stitutional force was the stronger. he quitted the ranks of the
people to join the garrison, and ou ly survived his desertion one
hour. His head was exposed by she people. The Port Cap-
