from Hambnrgh, the Syndic, Mr. Gutschow, the
Bishop of Wendt, &c.
• We expect his Royal Highness the Grand Duke
of Mecklenburg Strclitz, and his Highness Prince
Gustavus of Mecklcnberg Schwerin. The King
of Denmark has appointed Count Hardenberg Re-
venthlow, and the King or Sweden, General Bior-
ensterna, to come hither to compliment his Majesty.
To-morrow (Wednesday) his Majesty will make
his public entry on horseback into this city. The
procession, which will be very splendid, is to be all
so arranged as to leave Herrenhausen about eleven
o'clock.

HANOVER, OCT. 12:—HIs Majesty spent the
day of his arrival in private with his brothers. On
the 9th, his Imperial Highness the Archduke Fer-
dinand was presented to his Majesty ; and likewise
Prince Frederick of Hesse, and the Prince of Tour
and Taxis. The King dined in private with his
brothers, and the above mentioned Princes, and the
Princes of Brunswick, who were presented to his
Majesty on his arrival. At table, Prince George,
son to the Duke of Cumberland, and Prince Geor,,e,
son to the Duke of Cambridge, were pres2ntedgto
the King by their parents. On the 10th, before
his Majesty's solemn entry, the officers of the royal
household, and the generals and superior officers,
were presented.
In the evening, when the Kingdrove through the
city to view the illuminations, the Duchesses of'
Cumberland and Cambridge, and the Archduke
Ferdinand, were in the carriage with his Majesty.
On the 11th, after the Archduke Ferdinand and
the Marquis of Londonderry had had an audience,
several presentations were made to his Majesty, in
the audience chamber, by the Minister of Foreign
Affairs, Count Munster, hereditary Field Marshal
of the kingdom.
After the Royal Princes, the Princes of Bruns-
wick, and Prince Frederick of Hesse had been ad-
mitted. and the High Chamberlain and Chamber-
lains on duty had entered, the Marquis of London-
donderry presented all the English and the Ambas-
sadors iu the order in which they had arrived, their
suites, and the subjects of their respective Sove-
reigns. The number of presentations was so great,
that the drawing-room lasted from one till four
o'clock, during all which time his Majesty remained
standing, most graciously saluting or saying a few
words to every one.
At eight in the evening the ladies were received.
who were presented singly to the King, by the
Countess of Munster. The Xing kissed each lady
on the forehead, and spoke in the most condescend-
ing manner.
His Majesty, accompanied by the Duchesses of
Cumberland and Cambridge, walked several times
through the rooms while the music was playing, and
conversed with several persons present, and retired
to his apartments at half past ten o'clock.
The day before yesterday, the inhabitants of this
capital had the happiness of seeing their beloved so-
vereign make his solemn entry. His Majesty
mounted his horse at Herrenhausen, at half past
one o'clock. The procession was arranged as regu-
lated in the Programme, previously published, and
proceeded through the avenue of Herrenhausen, at
the entrance of which his Majesty allowed the city
guard, on horseback, to escort him.
In the avenue, the regiments of cavalry were
drawn up on each side, all the way to the city. At
the end of the avenue, where a triumphal arch was
erected, his Majesty was welcomed by citizens of
the suburbs, in state dresses, and young ladies, who
strewed flowers before him. At the gate were the
Civil Authorities and the Clergy, who complimented
his Majesty. A salute of 101 guns announced the
entrance of his Majesty within the walls of his
faithful German capital.
His Majesty passed duo' a double file of artillery
to the triumphal arch, where young ladies presented
a poem, which his Majesty most gracionsly received,
accompanied by the ringing of all the bells, by the
thunder of the cannon, and, which was certainly
the most agreeable to his Majesty, the incessant re-
joicings of the multitudes that thronged the whole
of the streets.
After the detachment of the hussars of the guards
that opened the procession, followed nine state car-
riages, each drawn by six horses. Immediately
befbre the King rode his Royal Highness the Duke
of Cumberland; on the King's right hand the Duke
of Cambridge, and on his left the Archduke Fer.
dinand. His Majesty wore the uniform of a Ha-
noverian Field Marshal, with the insignia of the
Order of the Guelphs.
This splendid procession, increased by a numer-
ous suite of cavalry, passed between the files of
citizens, and then of military, through the several
streets, to the Palace of the Duke of Cambridge,
where his Majesty, the Royal Dukes, and the King's
immediate attendants, dismounted and entered.
The Procession, and the Guard of Honour, com-
' posed of citizens on horseback, halted in the streets,
soon after the citizens defiled before the Palace in
military array, when his Majesty appeared with

the Princes at the balcony, and acknowledged, by
repeatedly bowing, the joyful acclamations of the
people.
About four o'clock, the Procession put itself in
motion to return to Herrenhausen. The King rode
in a state carriage, drawn by eight white horses, and
passing through several streets, left the city by the
Cleve Gate to return to Herrenhausen. Another sa-
lute of artillery announced his Majesty's departure.
In the evening the city was finely illuminated;
transparencies and inscriptions were displayed on all
sides, and there was not a single house uni:lunti-
nated.

His Majesty with the Princesses and the officeri
of his court, came to the city, and drove through
the streets to view the illumination. The Duke of
Cambridge rode by the side of the King's carriage.
Wherever his Majesty passed he was received with
transports by the crowds, who continued to throng
the streets till a late hour, indulging in the harpi-
ness of having their Sovereign among them.
To-morrow his Majesty will review the troops
that are stationed in the city and the environs. (
the 15th, 16th, and 17th, various evolutions will
be executed by the troops of all arms. On the 19th
will be the grand hunting party on the Diester.

PARIS, OCT. 14.—Yesterday the King traneacted
business with the Marquis of Lauriston and the M.-
nister of the Interior.

The ordinance by which the King has raised to
the Peerage Baron Pasquier, Minister of Foreign
Affairs, and a member of the Chamber of Deputies,
is dated September 25. The representation of the
Seine becomes in consequence defective, and a new
member will be elected in the place of the Baron
Pasquier.
Extract of a letter from Gracia, near Barcelona,
dated Sept. 28:—" It is from a country-house, in
the vicinity of Gracia, that I answer your letter I f
the 18th inst. Retired to this residence upwards t f
a fortnight, I can no longer give you circumstantial
accounts of passing occurrences at Barcelona. All
the authorities, from the Captain General and Po-
litical Chief, down to the head constable, have with-
drawn beyond the cordon, which now includes the
village of the holy hermitage of St. Peter the Mar-
tyr, all the crater of the mountain, and down to
Horta on the sea-shore. Our communications for
provisions become daily more difficult by reason of
the increase of the pestilence in the town, which
has acquired an accession of virulence since the tall
of much rain, succeeded by 20 degrees of heat. Bar-
celonetta continues under the most terrible visita-
tion of the prevailing scourge. Tip magistracy
have, however, sent out a considerable number of
convalescents to various parts. At Barcelona the
new street and the suburbs are more particularly at-
tacked, which produces serious apprehensions for the
city, if the cold weather does not speedily set in.
Our second constitutional Alcade, the Marquis
d'Alfarras, with his chaplain and a female attend-
ant, have fallen victims to the malady which prevails
at Gracia. For more than a month we have not
seen any person front Perpignan. Nothing more
easy than to come; but, to return, next to impossi-
ble, as travellers must submit to 15 days' detention
at Mataro, at Arengo ten, and so on at the into-
mediate stations to the frontier."

SIR ROBERT WitsoN.—The Ministerial Papers
have triumphantly demanded, " What has Sir Ro-
bert Wilson done? What claim of gratitude has he
upon the people of England ?" They might demur,
if we referred them to his honourable parliamentary
conduct; but they will doubtless admit the force of
the following document, coming, as it does, from the
King's eldest brother, from the heir presumptive to
the throne, and, above all, from the Commander itt
Chief of that army from which he has recently Leea
so shamefully dismissed

"THE DUKE Or YORK TO SIR ROBERT WILSON.
" HORSE GUARDS, JAN. 24, 1115.

" have to acknowledge the receipt of your letter .1
the List instant, with its enclosures; and in assuring you of the
favourable manlier in which I am impressed by the merits of
your zealous and distinguished services, I have to convey the
expression of my regret that the principle of limitation under
which the Order of the Rath has been extended, did not admit of
your name being included. The invidious difficulties which were
apprehended as being likely to arise from a system of individual
selection, upon the first establishment of a distinction which ne-
cessarily possessed a limitation, rendered it expedient that a line
should be drawn to guide the decision, where so wide a field of
merit was brought under tire Prince Regent's considesation.
" This limited line did not embrace a period when you were
materially entloyed with the British army; and having by your
distinguished conduct obtained the honours and distinctions
or ad
the foreign armies with which you have so eminently served,
felt comparatively satisfied, under the impression, that, in your
case, the nature of the principle adopted would be apparent to
yourself and your friends.
" I have only to add, that, upon future occasions, I shall be
most happy to bring your name under the Prince Regent's con-
sideration, not only for prifcstional distinction, bat us a cuniiidate
for the camtiumd (do cavalry regiment.
" I ant, Sir, yours,
"FREDERICK, Commander in Chief.

SUNDAY, OCTOBER V,
-NON—

The Agricultural Report, by a Committee of the
House of Commons, which was ordered to be
printed in June last, has at length appeared. It
admits the distresses of the farmer, but the Com-
mittee having been appointed by that " most im-
pudent attempt to befool mankind," termed a ballot,
which is, in the House of Commons, neither more
nor less than u nomination of Ministers—the Mar-
quis of Londonderry had too many of his creatures
in it to allow the most distant hint of the real
cause of those distresses to escape them—the
appointment, however, of a hundred Committees
lan neither change the 'fact, nor prevent its
being known, by any man of common sense : while
the lavish expenditure of the public money by the
existing Government continues—while the interest
cf a debt of SQO millions (in exchange for which the
English nation has the honour of being laughed at
upon the Continent) is to be paid, the taxes must be
enforced, and while that is done, distress must and
will stare in the face, not the farmer only, but
every one, of every class, who has to obtain an
honest livelihood by the exercise of his abilities.
This is a truth which Nit.. Coke has always
insisted upon—a truth which no Agricultural
Report can render controvertible. The nation sub-
mitted to an unnecessary, expensive, and, in many
instances, dishonourable war—what are now the
rewards? beggary and penury—a tax-gatherer's
warrant or a workhouse. Such are the Tory tri-
umphs—such the blessings of the system introduced
by " the pilot who weathered the storm," and so
ruinously persisted in by Lords Eldon, Liverpool,
and Castlereagh, with the horde of subordinates who
would have gone twice as far if they had received
as order to do so, though the ruin of their native
land had been manifestly consequent.

We have received the Paris Papers of Wednesday
Lit. They announce that the King of France is
