It was niiiinionimsly Resolved,
That the Postscript of the Curvimittee, sailed to their for.

be published as an Advertisement.
The said Postscript is as follows:
" 'Floe postponed Petitioners for admission, referred to in
the Circular of March 1816, amounting to One Hundred
and Fifteen Children, have all been placed upon the foun-
dation, since the last Atini y—it being deemed better
to rely upon public munificence in the approaching Cele-
bratiou, than further to prolong the anxiety of suspcniled
hope iu the Pour—whilst in the same interval, 652/. Consols
have been added to the funded Capital. Pasco 33 and 34
of the print, d Rook (to be always had of the Secretary, gra-
ti•i) slims, in the usual detail, the Properly, Receipt•, and
Disbursements of the Charity. The following Summary
cannot fail to gratify thu generous Suppo of the pour
Children.

" In the year 1841 the Pupils were only filS in number; cad
the vested capital 1111 more than 10,0001. Stook. In the pre-
sent year (WIC the Pupils are Two HundietLaud Forty, and
the vested capital 47,8151. Stuck—the bunt!. of the Go-
vernors having, during the int u nig 17 yam, enabled
the Ciimniittee to make an average annual addition of more
than 1,04)01. Stock to the property ; and gradually to increase
the Children to their present number, being considerably
the largest ever entertained upon this Establishinciii--so
large, indeed, that it becomes necessary to entreat the
vernurs to forbear all recurnmairlations trending the present

- .
year. The approaching Festival will present a whole-length
image of the Inititntion, from the greenest age at which
the Children are received, to the completion of their appree-
ticesnmps.
" The Committee have, again, the renewed comfort of
reiterating their congratulations upon the total disappear.
ance of those political heats which broke out at the Dineen
iu the years Twelve and Thirteen—a continuation of which
must bare bronglit inevitable ruin wpm the Charity."

general attention. Every person is occupied in
embellishing and making preparations for receiving
the Monarchs with every possible testimony of re-
spect. The hoese Of Fermium is fitted up for the
King of Prussia ; it is very spacious and delight-
fully situated. The hotel Campliausbad, is des-
tined for another Sovereign. The King of the
Netherlands has hired the hotel Clerinont,'ht %%els,
for three months. It is within the limits of his ter-
ritory•, although but a league distant from our town.
It is asserted that the splendid country seat called
Kalkofeu, at the distance of half a mile from one of
our gates, will be occupied by tl►e Emperor of
Russia. This place recalls many historical events ;
it was here that the defender of Gibraltar, Elliot,

concluded an iniriessive speech, by strongly and
forcibly pointing out to the Meeting the necessity
of their early attendance on the hustings with their
votes. In every view, he said this was most import-

After thanks were voted to Mr. Alderman Good

the Chair in Eis absence, a large subscription was
entered into, Committees formed, and other mea-

MENTZ, JUNE 3.

From the 29th April to the find of May, there
have passed down the Rhine 294 emigrants, on
their way to America, viz. 91 men, 59 women, and
145 children-361 were from Wirtemberg, =23 from
Alsace, 7 from Switzerland, and 3 from &Mem—

FRENCH FRONTIERI, MAY '2l.

Several of the Generals who have hero called
from their posts and dismissed, and who or 14te
years have been much talked of, are now at Paris,
and take much pains to he employed. Among
them are lient.-General Cannel, who I:as hither-
to in vain demanded that a Court-martial shall he
summoned to decide on his contlact ; and Lieut.-
General Donadiece, who has frequently solicited an
audience of the King, but without being able to
obtain one, and is highly incensed. These gen-
tlemen cannot conceive that it is possible, with-
out having committed any crime, to have forfeited
by their conduct the confidence of the Government.
They have acted exclusively in the spirit of one
party, whereas the Government is no party, and
must command all, and may therefore require that
all its civil and military agents, particularly those
who fill the higher posts, should act in the same
spirit.
Several important changes in the Freud) marine
corps are spoken of. Under the administration of
Dubouchage, the same reforms and measures were
adopted in it as in the troops of the line under
the Duke of Feltre. A number of officers who
had served with distinction in the marine during
the Revolution, and have been removed from their
offices in these latter years, some without ally steps
on their part, received their retraite, but with
their rade de retraile. Others were entirely dis-
missed, without any reason given fur removing
them. They are called les Elemiaes. All these
people complain, and have partly applied to the
new Minister of the Marine, M. Mole, to be em-
ployed again, and partly laid their grievances be-
fore the public. It is said that the Minister has
appointed a Committee to examine their claims,
and justice will be done them.—(Ernst Gazelle,
May 90.)

ROYAL ACADEMY.

The approaching Exhibition at the Hopi
Academy will, it is said, be the best which the
public has yet seen from that national establish-
ment. Nearly the whole of our Artists will exhibit
this year. The Portraits are, as nstial, numerous,
but some of them may he called historical ones.
Sir THOMAS LAWRENCE takes the lead : he has an
If:rush-in* Portrait of the Dukeof WELLINGTON,
in his military uniform, which is a . masterly work,
and may vie with any of vAsttirite4 celebrated
oinpositions of this kind in the anatomy, the
spirit, and energy of the figures, while it certainly
surpasses them in richness and splendour of colour-
ing. Sir THOMAS has also a fine Portrait of his
Koval Highness the PRINCR RCGENT, and Mr.
SHEE and Mr. OWEN have some very fine speci-
mens of their talents in this department of art.
Among the Landscapes, which are, in point of
Imhject, as various as they are nntnerous, Mr.
TURNER retains, as he deserves, his undisputed
pre-eminence. He has three helmet for the Exhi-
bition ; one of them is a View of Dort, the scenery
of which town has been so celebrated by the admi-
rable views taken on the spot by Ctive, who wit a
native of it. Mr. TURNER liar handled the sub-
ject in a diGrent manner—he has preserved the
same transparency which gave Cute such deserved
reputation, and added to it a brilliant and capt►-
vating tone of colour, which produces a magical
effect.

Mr. CAI-cotr has an admirable View of Sheer-
ness. It in finished in the same style. and with the
rime excellence that characterised his View qf
Pool of London, which attracted so much attention
at aformer Exhibition.

Mr. Cowie% sad several other Artists, are
ale° exhibitors. We have already alluded to the
three works from Mr. President WEss ; two of
them are lately painted, and the third has been
tome time finished.

CORONER'S INQUEST.

Yesterday evening an inquisition was held at the sign of
the Jolly Millers, in Webbee.row, Illackfriars.rund, before
hittimon, Esq. on the bodies of Thomas and William
Hires, two infant., under seven years of age, who perished
in the late conflagration. The Jai y having been sworn, re-
tired to view the bodies, which presented a horrid spectacle,
and were in a mutilated state.

W. Yeoman, of Nu 9, Embikn-place, hat- maker, stated, be
rented a separate room in Mr. Higgs house fur his business.
Alwol half-put seven Mr. Higgs left home, and requested
his journeymen to prepare the hats for the drying stove.
The composition used is spirits of wine and turpentine; lie
had placed several to dry ; when, on the last one he took in
some spirits dropped from it.• hick instantly bland and set
several others on lire. The drying stove is situated in the
lower part of the house under the parlour. The family
generally resided in the parlour, but hall, within these
few days, retired to the bed-room shove stairs. They
consisted of Mr. and Mrs. Higgs and Nur children,—
When the Witness first perceived the fire, he went to get
two pails of water to endeavour to exiitiguish it, but out
having the desired effect, he Manned Mrs. Higgs, who its-
maliately came dune stairs, with her youngest infant iu her
arms, and before site could return aptia, the flumes had in.
d to such an extent, that all effort. proved fruitless.
Witness attempted thrive to return to preserve the other
children, but found it impossible.
A juryman observed he was near the spot at the time the
foe was burtiOrg, suet in a few minutes a ladder was placed
to the first flour window, alien a person of the name of Julio
Bentley, io the roust praise-worthy manner, and at the hazard
of his own lite, asceudrd the ladder, amt succeeded in resett-
ing tine of the three remaining children from destruction,
the other two fell a sacrifice. He was most dreedfully bums.
ed on the occasion, and was conveyed to Guy's Hospital,
where very little hopes are entertained of his iecsuSery.
John Feaster, juerneynian to Mr. Higgs, observed, he was
stilTiming the hats with the composition, at the time, to pre-
pare them for the drying stove, when some spirits drop'', d
some how or other, which he could nut account fur—this
communicated to the other hats wear, and set them on lire.
WelptllS endeavoured to fetch water, hut to 110 purpose.—
The whole of the property was destroyed. The stove, he (wit.
ness) observed, might contain from six to eight bats at a
time.

No more evidence heinK adduced to the Jury, the Coro-
ner addressed them, "lieu they instantly returmd o vr rtrict
