JULY 17.

if,glv, at half past three o',.lock on Wednesd.tv morning her
Royal ilighnv,,s was co!i:eyed to Carlton thi!!se,--all the
persons by whom she has been served being removed from
attendance on her person, except Mrs. Lewis, who had
initowed her to Colinao At House with her night ci aths.
and who was permitted to return with her in the car: iage,
along with the Duke of 'York

It is stated in the Courier, " that on the return of the
Pr ineess to Carlton hon :e she was received by the Prio,— in
the kindest and most affectionate manner—that she had on
Wednedav a long and affecting interview with her father—
and they fed quite assured that that the happiest effects wily
result from it."

Several anecdotes are told of the Princess Charlotte's short
excursion.--Seeing a boy getAip behind the hackney coach,
and thinking it was a spy set to follow her, she pulled the
check string and desired the c,,achman to pu' him down.
Ilex Royal Highness to!d the Coachman that if he would
drive fast to Connaught [louse she would give him a
handsome reward, and ale actually gave him three guineas.
On her a, rival at the door of the Princess of "%Vales, and
learning that she w.►s at Blackheath, her first thought was to
proceed thither, and in a molt earnest tone, she said," Coach-
man, w;11 you protect me ?" To which Coachee replied—
" Ave, Madam, to the last drop of my blood.''

One of the Ladies now nominated to attend on the
Princess, was removed from her Household by the Prince
Ite:zent live years ago.
The lameness of the Princess Charlotte of Wales, so often
alltr.led to in the papers, is occasioned by a swelling in one
knee.

puties in a speech nearly an hour long, upon The State of the Na-

General Observation: ; 2d, The Department 'lf the Minister of the
Interkr. and the subjects connected with it ; 1, The War Depart-
ment ; Tile Marine ; and sth, The Finances.
The it entered into some details upon the dreadful effects of
the Conseription, and, after commenting upon this subject, he stated.
that, upon the lust calculation that could be made, above 1,300,00.0
men, had been dragged from their families since the Russia!! Mu'
paign. The Government, he said, nevertheless, endeavoured to im-
pose firm the Nation with the meet shameful effrontery, the more
tie :i were taken away, the more, it was said, the potailatium iii-
ereasrd. The wish to avoid the conscription indueed young me,
to marry premalurely, and this led to domestic misery, and ,711-
