was. the answer of the notes which have been pre-

the English Ambassador has presented a similar

MINTS, OCTORRA S.
We learn that the Magietrates of Darkhoini on
Hart have received directions from the Government
of Spires to make preparations to receive • corps
of Russians of 4,000 men, forming part of the
army of occupation in France. which will arrive in
those parts by the 40th of this month.
The Bavarian corps is to follow on the cad. It
is raid that the Russian corps marches from thence
into the Grand Duchy of Baden, where. as we have
read for some days, past in several German Papers,
all the troops of that country had received orders to
bold themselves it. readiness to march.

" Some public Papers have staled that the students from
Gottingen who came here, were tolerated in the beginning,
all afterwards sent away. The fact is, that the University
has refused to receive two of the Gluiest; who, on account
of heat y suspicions hanging over shoo, had brew summoned
by the Tribunal of Gottissen, stapama religal ion's, as soon
es ioformation of the circumstance was obtained, and till
the affair should be decided. As for the others, there being
no reason to exclude them, they being mostly provided with
the certificates usual here, us in other Universities, some
haring satisfied the regulations, Lave been already register-
ed, and ON others will be so as sows as they have complied
with the regulatioas.

This is ascribed partly to the large sums subscribed

'THE QUEEN.

Sir HENRY HALPOED arrived on Wednesday
evening from London at Kew Palace to dinner.
The Patttcs REGENT and the Duke of You
left Kew Palace after dinner, on Wednesday even-
ing, for London.
Both her MAJESTY'S Physicians remained in close
attendance upon her on Wednesday night, and at
their early vi.it to her yesterday morning, finding
no change had taken place iu her health, for the
better or worse, they drew up and signed the fol-
lowing Report :--

This was forwarded to the different Royal Esta-
blishments.

Early yesterday morning rizteen of the Quaver
hones were removed from the stables at Kew to
Windsor. They were drove by eight servants.
Only one set of her MAJIATIrif carriage-hones and
two saddle-hones remain at Kew.

The PaINCI REGILPT went, as usual, yesterday
afternoon to Kew Palace, as has been his daily
practice since the afflicting illness of his beloved
Parent. His Royal Highness remained about an
hour, and then returned to Carlton House.
The inquiries continue at Kew and the Queen's
Palace.
There was no alteration in the state of the
Quits during yesterday, and np to seven o'clock
last evening both her Medical Gentlemen were in
close attendance, and expected to remain during
the night.
The Duchess of GLoncEsTEu and the Princess
AUGUSTA, attended by General TATLoa. walked
out i►► Kew Gardens on Wednesday and yesterday,
and the weather being remarkably mild and pleasant
they continued their walk a considerable time.

We have received a great variety of foreign in-
telligence by the several sources of Flanders, Ham-
burgh, and German Papers ; but the principal arti-
cle of iutelligeoce they contain, namely, the deci-
sion of the Sovereigns in favour of the immediate
evacuation of FfilllCC, had been anticipated by the
Paris Paper we announced yesterday, Prepara-
tions ars now actively making throughout the line
occupied by the Allied troops, in elpectation of a

of
Lion of a rupture with Bavaria. The attitude
of this tatter power appeared to justify such ap-
prehensions, and it is even Mated in an article
from Munich, that the Ambassadox from the
King of WIRTEMBEILO had, at the desire of
Ins Sovereign, demanded from the Court of
Munich an explanation respecting tl►e union of
the Bavarian troops; and in his demand implying,
be an affected disbelief, that the Court of Bavaria
threatened to disturb the tranquillity of Germany
by an Minutia' of Baden. To this demand the
Bavarian Minister replied, that the Bavarian troops
wrre nut drawn together ;- that there were ►►o rah-
tory movements; and that, on the contrary., it was
in Baden tl►at hostile d►spositions were. manifested,
into which his master was justified in inquiring.
It is very unaccountable, if Bavaria exhibited this
exemplary freedom from military movements, that
en Ambassador at the Court of Munich could have
entertained an idea so diametrically opposed to it,
and could have felt himself justified in requiring
an explanation of circumstances that did nut exist,
Be the reply, however, true or false, it. proves that
Bavaria does not openly avow hostile purposes, and
consequently no apprehensions need be entertained
of her disturbing the tranquillity of Europe,

It is reported in a Patio Paper, that six English
regiment* of infantry, now in France, are destined
fur the East Indies. A large reduction of our
army must immediately take place ; fur oar peace
establishment has always been vepresented in Par-
liament as exclusive of the armies serving in France
and India. This reduction w;11 increase the Half-
pay List very considerably; but we trust that Par-
liament will not suffer this burden to be prolonged
unnecessarily, in a manner at once unjust to hub.
viduals, and injurious to the interests of the country.

A Morning Paw which some clays ago publish-
• ed ■ pretended letter from Ai:-la-Chapelle, assert-
ing positively that the Allied Sovereigns had rati-
fied the Convention of Evacuation on the 2d of Oc-
tober, very strangely assumes, with no small degree
of self-complacency. that this official intelligence

from Paris proves the authenticity of the former
statement ! Our readers will observe, that the
Ministers of the Allied Misters had only signed
the Convention on the 914, and consequently
that it still wanted the ratification of the Allied
Sovereigns. Now, then, an account, stating the
occurrence of an event on the gth of the month, can
be suppposed to confirm one which asserted that
this event took place on the 2d, we are at a loss to
conceive. The first account, it now appears, was
but an anticipation, by no less than a week, of an
event for which every one was prepared, mid which
might have been expected to lake place within some
very limited time. The attempt, therefore, might
be fairly made with some chance of success, for a
drv►at' of only a day or two might, by possibility,
be overlooked when the authentic intelligence
would subsequently arrive with an account of the
circumstance. In the present instance, the guess
that was made, with the unfortunate addition
that the ratification was agreed to at the end of the
Oh conference, when in fact no conference had
taken lilacs., was by no means happy. AVe
however, that the disappointment in this specnlation
may not prove altogether u►tserviceslule, for it will
teach certain Editors of London Journals to he
more cautious how they write a extracts from Pri-
vate Correspondence," for which they have no ma-
terials but their own crude conjectures.

We have received Montreal Papers to the 12th
olt. Their contents, in respect to the state of
affairs in Upper Canada, are of considerable import-
time. l'hc new Governor, Sir PDREGN INE MA IT-

A large proportion of the above has been due since
