of the Court of Berlin, the Grand Duke of Darmstadt

Due King heard macs in his apartments, and after-
wards gate audiences to the Ministers of Justice and
Foreign Affairs. The prei4naticy of the Duchess of

Extract of a letter Irons Cadiz, dated the 19th of
April :—" Nlatsy ni the transports, chartered in England,
are arrived in die Itisiols 01 Cadiz; lilt it is WAY per-
t enable, that the fidelity of the SI:Wilt:II is not at all to
he ilet.eistled upon. These observations will apply to the
French seatitisi no board die transports arrived from
Bordeaux and Bayonne ; all of them openly profess a
spirit of independeisce velltekcarmot be tolerated in a
country that groans under an arbitifiry desiastisto. It is
likewise Ahmed. that the expedition will not sail Imitate
the month of Dc&isiber ; and the troops, which had
been sent on board several chips, hare been disembarked
since my last letter. Toe news toms Mexico is saitl to
be of a tasourahle 1131 ore, but the Spanish Gin eroment
has not thought proper in publish it. 111 toy of tile corps

holding isiasonical Meiling. at his house, has been ar-
rested, and all his books and papers seized by the agents
of the Holy Office. Nothing eau be more ridiculous
than such a persecniirm ; it is of no loth'', whatever;
the mote the Freemasons are persecuted, toe more pro-
selytes do they make. Two inure of the Russian mess
of war have Leen declared unfit for ben ice. 'non, are
almost all rotten and unsersiceable. The San Joan Bap-
tista has been taken by a privateer under the flag of Ar-
tigas, at slt miles off Cape St. Vincent, and in sight of a
Spanish schooner. The late arrisals from liavannals
base been rather favourable to the cominetce ui Cadiz ;
but the :Nlexicon gulf is full of Patriot privateers."

Thursday, the Prince Regent held a Levee, al
Carlton-house, chiefly for the purpose of giving au-
dience to the Persian Ambassador, and to receive

Highness's acceptance, from the Sovereign of

On Tuesday, the 11th instant, the baptism of
the infant son of his Royal Highness the Duke of

cessary forms, and with a degree of magnificence
suitable to the occasion.
The Duke of York on Monday submitted some
new clothing for the three regiments of Foot Guards,
to the Prince Regent, at Carhen-house, which, we
understand, the Regent was pleased to approve.
Saturday Dr. Marsh, the Bishop of Peterborough
attended at Carlton-house, at three o'clock, to do
homage before the Prince Regent, upon his being
translated from the Bishoprick of Llandaff to the
Bishoprick of Peterborough.
It is said, that the Lords of the Treasury have itig-
trifled to the Store-keeper General, that his services
will be no longer required, and that his department

sariat was at the end of the 'war.
The Duke of Wellington, as Master-General

MR. VANSITFART AND THE BANK DIRECTORS.
We refer our kaderi to the very curious and import-
ant correspondettee (which they will find in ano-
ther part of our paper) between, these varties, as lii4lilv
Winn atiye of the " financial prolirrity of the Countiy."
We have the Chancellor of the Exchequer in the .itua-
tints of all abject and humble beggar, crawling ht'hne
the fret of the Bank Directors, and earnestly begging
and imploring that they would permit hint to renew
his bills, winch he ciiiiksses his inability to tale tip
when they become due. The Times of Monday himr.
that last year there was a considerable difficulty in find-
ing money to pay the Dividends. We were in posses-
sion of the facts conity:ted with the embarrassment al.
hided to, but, comin tttt icated as they were under an
injunction of secrecy, we could not lay them before our
Readers. The conclusions which we drew from these
facts, will probably be remembered, and the cons-
. mews to which they gave rise. We were accused of
" aiming a blow at the financial establishments of the
Country,' but every day has tended to cootirin the (mil
Mott we then gave. The Directors, not content m tilt
trampling Nam poor Vansittart, call olio's him for pro-
tection against those who have been engaged in the
honest clideavuur to expose their situation. They 'nay
as well be quiet. The helpless 115511 is no more aide to
stop the ide of publicopinion, than they are to pay their
debts iu matey.

Commons, the total amount of Duties received on
Coals, Cinders, anti Calm landed coastwise, in the

It apix.strs from a return made by order of the
House of Commons, that the number of persons
admitted to the British luseunt, from the 'atith
lip

63 2.-.3
