The Queen's Palace was closed on Wedneaday
and yesterday, by FRANCS and BANTUS°, by order
of Colonel STEPSUINSON; every window that hod
not shutters has been closed with thick canvass.
Last night, about half-past eight o'clock, a hearse
and four arrived at Kew Palace, followed by a
mourning coach and foie, in which were Mr. BANT-
US°, Ilse Royal Undertaker, and his assiatents, who
proceeded to take out of the hearse the irides' 440 f•

tribute largely towards its support; but this cir.

of pecuniary obligation, either to the pablic or to

in promoting works of charity and benevolence.
It is principally intended 'for 'the reception of the
widows and daughters or c lergyaien. and of Officers
in the Army 'end .Navy. It is entirely vender the
auspices df Lathes of the bighead rank, and a fund
of several thousands has been already secured and
placed out at interest. It has also the patronage of
the Lord Bishops of Durham, St. David's, and of
Meath, and the Earl of Sheffield. Her Majesty,
tawniest at Bath, paid •great attention to the above
institution, and minutely inspected every part of
Seabrook House.

It has, we understand, been determined by Mi-
nistry. that Parliament shall be convened on 'Chun-
day, the 14th .1 January. The Act of the last
Session for amending the Regency Act prescribes,
that, in case of the demise of the QUEEN, Parlia-
ment shall assemble widths sixty days from that
event, for the purpose Of having a fit and proper
person appointed to whom time care of the KING
shall be intrusted. The Great Council of the
Nation might, however, by a pre-existent Statute,
he sumcnoc►ed by the Sovereign at a notice of
fourteen day., under any eantrgency ; it iss there.
fore, a inviter of surprise that the Meeting of Par.
humeri' should, under the present circumstances,
be delayed so long, particularly as in ordinary
cases it was accustomed to take place at an earlier
period.
It is very generally imagined that his Royal
Highness the Duke of Yung will be proposed by
the Ministers to Parliament no the guardian of his
afflicted Parent'. aucred person; and with such en
appointment, considering all the circumstances of
the case, acid the &tilt of The Royal Family, we
cannot believe that any one in the country will he
inclinedlo quarrel. If the principles that influence
private eases were to be applied to that of the
KING, perhaps, in ►trictuees of liw, some ob-
jection might be found to time nomination of his
Royal Highness; but where the character of un in.
dividual demands the n►u•t unreserved confidence,
few will be inclined to start difileulties, and still
fewer be found to entertain them. A similar fate
would probably befal those other objections that
might he raised, from the circumstance of the

Duke of You's official situation. Time, how.
ever, has heen, when the possession or the KING's
person, and the complete command and affection or
• standing army, might have been regarded with
doubt and apprehension.

The next point for the consideration of Parlia-
ment will be that of the establishment suited to the
Klta's uulnippy situation. Of this we spoke at
large in our last number. Itetretichinent in the
Windsor establishment will, im some degree,
though indirectly, diminish the ministerial patron-
age, and will, therefore, be strenuously represented
ass diminution of the Royal splendour; und we
may even expect, r hen driven to their last resource,

indebted to the man who could insinuate so gross
• doubt of his filial piety.

The revision of the KING'S establishment will
almost of necessity involve a consideration of the
arrangements respecting the Royal Dukes. The
+quite of the QUEEN, with retrenchments at
Windsor. will throw into the public fund • very
considevable annual sum. probably exceeding
100,0001. The embarrassments of some members
of the Royal Family are too notorious to he now
specifically noticed. ■nd the consequence of them
is their tKnporary absence from this country. It
does not become our national character that the
sons of our Monarch should he driven by their tie.
cessities to an involuntary exile; and yet it is evi-
dent that this must inevitably happen, if we com-
pare their my limited allowances with the wants
that beset thei► elevated tank in society. The
members of uur Royal Family appesr in public
less conspicuously, in point of equipage end
splendour, than many of our substantial citizen*;
but no greater proof can be required of their
very uncomfortable situation at home. than the
distressing fact, that one of them has been in.
debted to the munificence of a foreign Prince, the
►eiative of his illustrious Consort; for the means of
upholding Iris rank in the capital of Great Britain!
This eircuminsiice transpired in the debate nu this
subject in the Molise nr Commons during the last
Session. These topics will of necessity he among
the very first to occupy the attention of Parliament
iu the approaching Session.

Vt'e have received Paris Papers o♦* S•nd•y and

from Paris and Aix-hi-Chapelle. Some further
changes of territories are tuid to have been de-

and the Nexnede.sobs, With which we should

involved the pernicious principle of considering the
eever•l people of Europe, as the personal property
of their rulers, and altogether uninterested in the
territorial arrangements that might chance to please

whit feelings of attachment the people might have

according to the new arrangement, be extended to

Meuse was evacuated by the Prussian contingent ;
but according to the new arrangements, thin con-
tingent can reach its own territories long before
the expiration of the lime originally appointed for
the evacuation of France. The intelligence re-
cently received it. Paris from Aix-la-Chapelle, by
the hands of M. de CARASAN, is said to relate
to the admission of France into the general Al-
liance. The late pecuniary embarrassments will,
it is feared, be the cause of many bankruptcies
in the French capital.
