" This work is extremely agreeable, and, we should say, emi-
nently useful. We have at this moment upon the Throne a youth-
ful Queen, and certainly, as far as it is permitted her very humble
subjects to know any thing, a Queen full of promise. It is, there-
fore, to a nation full of hope, extremely pleasant to he furnished
with specimens of female wisdom and virtue, and those attributes
which constitute a great, impartial, and noble monarchical eha-
racter."—John

THE HOUSEHOLD.—It is now certain that at
Windsor Castle a very extensive alteration will take ph:ce in
the formation of the household of our new Queen, the greater
portion of the servants of his late Majesty being under orders
of dismissal, but some of them, only those who held warrants
of appointment, will have pensions granted to them, according
to the length and nature of their services. Tim pensions,
however, will, it is believed, be upon a much smaller scale than
those granted upon former occasions. The establishment of
the Queen Dowager, which is chiefly composed of her old
servants, will, however, supply employment for many who were
fearful of a dismissal. Ot her Majesty's twelve footmen she
has selected eight. Nearly all of the highest members of the
household of his late Majesty will retire End be superse(!ed by
others selected by Queen Victoria. Amcng the new ap-
pointments in the household of Queen Victoria, it is stated at
the Castle that the Hon. Colonel Cavendish, now one of the
Equerries in Waiting, will be the new Clerk-marshal of the
Household, in the room of Sir Andrew Barnard. The
gallant colonel resides in the vicinity of Windsor, and keeps
an establishment upon an extensive scale. He is much and
deservedly respected in that town.

At public dinners, after " The health of her Ma-
jesty, Queen Victoria," is given, the second toast is " Queen
Adelaide and the rest of th*..! Royal Family ;" and the National
Anthem is commenced thus :
" God save our Gracious Queen,
" Victoria, England's Queen.
" God save the Queen."

The Royal plate was removed yesterday from St.
James's Palace, to the Queen's new Palace in St. James's_
Park. Other preparations were also made at the new palace
for the reception of her Majesty.
Parliament will not be prorogued by the Queen in
person, it being considered unadvisable to subject her Majesty
to unnecessary excitement. It is, however, her. Majesty's in-
tention to open the new Parliament, and to deliver the address
to the Lords and Commons from the throne.

It was stated Yesterday about the Houses of Par-
liament that the prorogation (to be followed by an immediate
dissolution) would take place on Tuesday next.
There are upwards of three hundred workmen now
engaged at Buckingham Palace. Orders have been issued
that they shall finish by to-night. All the plate was removed
from St. James's Palace yesterday morning, as well as the
whole of the kitchen apparatus.
The Duke and Duchess of Bedford have arrived at
Endsleigh Cottage, near Tavistock. His Grace is much im-
proved in health ; and on the Ist of August, they will travel
by easy stages to the romantic cottage of the Duchess in the
Highlands.
The Duke and Duchess of Sutherland, accompa-
nied by their distinguished visiter, Princess Lieven, returned to
Stafford House yesterday, from West-hill, Wandsworth ; their
Graces will continue their grand dinners until after the first
drawing-room.
The Duke of Devonshire is recovering from the ef-
fects of hay fever. His Grace has been giving several dinner
parties at his house at Kemptown, although on a circumscribed
seal°. The fetes at his villa, at Chiswick, will commence
immediately on the Duke's return to London. There will not
be, it is said, any banquets at Devonshire House this season.
Lord Southampton and a party sailed from the
Thames, on Monday, in his yacht, on a cruise.
Sir Francis Burdett has recently arrived in town.
The health of the Hon. Baronet is much improved.
We are much gratified to be able to inform our
readers that the Queen has been pleased to appoint the lady of
Thomas Brand, Esq., one of the women cf her Majesty's bed-
chamber. Mr. Brand is a candidate for the representation of
Brighton in the ensuing Parliament on the Liberal interest,
and we have no doubt that this and other appointments will
tend materially to convince the public that her Majesty is
desirous of dispensing her patronage amongst persons of liberal
principles. Mr. Brand is nephew of Lord Dacre.
In consequence of the'fancy dress ball for the bene-
fit of the Royal Academy of Music taking place on Friday
evening, on a scale of great splendour, the Ladies Patronesses
of the Highland ball have postponed that fete to the 17th inst.,
being well aware that two grand assemblies could not be held
on consecutive evenings without proving injurious to both.

A Special General Meeting of the Proprietors of East India
Stock, was held this morning at their House in Lcadenhall-
street.
At twelve o'clock Sir James Carnac, accompanied by nearly
all the Directors, entered the Court, and having taken the
Chair, the minutes of the last Court were read and confirmed.
The Chairman then informed the Court that several papers
had been presented to Parliament since the last Court, a list
of which was laid on the table, pursuant to the directions of
the Act of Parliament.
The CHAIRMAN then said they were all aware that that
Special Court had been summoned for the purpose of afford-
ing pthe Proprietors an opportunity of expressing their loyal
feeling and attachment to the Sovereign who had succeeded
to the Throne, whose youth, sex, and high station, demanded
the respect of all. He would not then dwell upon the virtues
of the late Sovereign—they needed no herald, and were
shown forth most strongly in the public sympathy. He was
one who cared nothing for the trappings of royalty—his feel.
ings, his tastes, and his habits were entirely English, and
peculiarly qualified him to govern over this country. The
death of such a Monarch was, of course, universally re-
gretted • and he was proud that, on that melancholy occa-
sion, all felt as if they had lost a dear friend. Such
feelings must flow for the dead ; but on turning to the present
occupant of the Throne, there was room for much hope for
the future. They had now a Queen upon the throne who had
been educated for the'high station she had been called upon to
fulfil—she was an Englishwoman, and one who, upon every
occasion where an opportunity offered, had displayed great ta-
lents and a good heart. He need not impress upon the Court
the propriety of the East India Company joining the nation in
expressing their regret for the departed, and also of expressing
their dutiful feelings of loyalty and attachment to her who had
been called upon to ascend the Throne ; he would, therefore,
without further detaining the Court, propcse that an address
of congratulation and condolence receive the Company's seal,
and be presented to her Majesty.
The DEPUTY CHAIRMAN seConded the motion.
Mr. TWINING rose with considerable emotion upon that, the
third time he had had the honour of addressing the Court upon
such solemn occasions. He entirely concurred in every ex-
pression of regret and congratulation which had fallen from
the Chair with such feeling and eloquence—it was, therefore,
almost unnecessary for him to add a word • but it was
in strict accordance with the ancient usages Of that Court,
that upon such solemn occasions some expressions of feel-
ing should come from outside the bar. Before proceeding to
the immediate subject before them, he could not help express-
ing his deep regret at the loss which the Court had sustained
in the death of the eloquent and learned Mr. Randal Jackson,
whose aid and assistance he had always had upon former occa-
sions. For the third time since he -had the honour of a seat
in the Court, they were, then, called upon to express their
condolence and regret for the loss of their Sovereign—on the
present occasion that regret was deep and sincere. He in
passing would merely glance at the great judgment shown by
George the Third in devoting two of his sons to those pro.
fessions upon which depended the safety, peace, and welfare of
the empire. One had been devoted to the army, by whom its
discipline was so improved, as to make it fit to be entrusted to
a Wellington, who led it to the greatest victory which was upon
record, and which Lad secured that for which a victory was alone
to be wished for—the peace and tranquillity of the empire for
an unusual length of time. The late Sovereign was destined to
the sea service of his country, and his conduct in that service
and the feelings he then imbibed led him to receive the proud
distinction of being recorded as the " Sailor King." In all
his transactions as a private gentleman, for to that rank he
was pleased frequently to bring himself, there was no man who
had more the art of insuring and almost commanding the love
and respect of those around him. His attachment to the Consti-
tution, and his devoted attachment to the Church, endeared
him to the people, and obtained from them sentiments of love
and gratitude. Throughout his reign the country had enjoyed
the blessings •of peace, and he trusted those blessings would
continue throughout that reign which had now begun so
usticicusly.—( Hear.) It was a matter of gratification to
him that, without flattery, lie could in the spirit of truth say,
that though all Royalty was still mankind, and of course liable
to all their vices and p sssions, still in the life of the late King
there were virtues whic`v stood as beacons for the guidance of
those who were called upon to succeed him. The reign
which had now commenced had 'began under very peculiar
circumstances. He thought that little was to be apprehended
from the youth of the Sovereign. When George the Third
was called to the throne, he was very young and inexpe-
rienced, yet his was a long and glorious reign. He trusted
that the present one would be equally so—as wzs the ear-
nest wish of all. With those feelings he perfectly concurred
in all that had been so ably stated by the Chairman.
Sir C. FORIIER also expressed his entire concurrence in the
speeches of both gentlemen.
Mr. FIELDEN said it was in the reign of Queer. Elizabeth
that the Company had been established. He trusted that as this
was the first Queen since that occasion, her present Ma-
j :sty would follow in the fo-tsteps of that glorious woman.
The Address was then put and agreed to.
The CHAIRMAN then rose to propose an address of con-
dolence to the Queen Dowager—she, who not only lamented
the loss of her King, but also her husband. Her conduct had
to the last been a model of domestic affection, and it became
them to show that such qualities accorded with the national
feelings and national character, and that they commanded re-
spect, admiration, and sympathy.
Mr. TWINING and Mr. MmiesoT concurred in the propriety
of all that had fallen from the Chairman.
The Address was agreed to, and the Court broke up.

MONEY MARKET, TUESDAY.--By the advices
from Hamburgh the pi ice of gold is 436 - per mark, which, at
the English Mint price of 31. 17s. 10311. the ounce for standard
gold, gives an exchange of 13. lot., and the exchange at
Hamburgh on London at short being 13. 11., it follows that
gold is 0.12 per cent. lower at Hamburgh than in London.
The premium on gold at Paris is 11i- per milk, which, at the
English Mint price of 31. 17s. lOicl the ounce for standard
gold, gives an exchange of 25.44., and the exchange at Paris
pn Loudon at short being 25. 57-., it follows that gold is 0 54.
per cent. lower at Paris than in London. The price of sove-

mean of 119, it follows that the exchange is 2} per cent. against
England. On the alleged information of a "pigeon express"
some purchases took place in Spanish stock, and the price rose
about 2 per cent. These expresses have now attained a more
perfect organization, and the operations of the Paris market,
when they are worth knowing, may generally be conveyed to
London within business hours on the succeeding day. The
parties probably do not make a very lucrative occupation of it,
and it does harm in the way of a discouragement of general
business, as the brokers are unwilling to buy or sell if they
even suspect that others are in possession of better means of
estimating the value of the article dealt in.—Morning Paper.
We learn in Windsor, and from tolerably good au-
thority, that to-morrow or next day her Majesty the Queen
will come to the Castle on a visit, and will leave the same
day. During this week it is understood that the Queen will
review the whole of the Household troaps in Hyde Park, and
her Majesty will upon that occasion appear on horseback.
Several horses arc now being tried to see if they will " stand
fire," so that one may be selected for the Queen, who, how-
ever, is known to be a good and fearless rider.
A few days ago the Queen Dowager had into her
presence the pages who had taken their turns in waiting on
the late King, and stated to them her sense of the manner in
which they had performed their duties, adding that their late
Royal Master had expressed himself most favourably of their
great attention to him. The Queen Dowager then presented
to each, as a mark of her approbation, a very handsome pre-
sent, chiefly jewellery, all of which articles had belonged to the
late King. We regret to hear to-day that the Queen Dow-
ager is much indisposed, and that she is unable to leave her
residence at Bushey.—Morning Paper.
The Lords of the Admiralty have chartered the
James Pattison to convey 272 male convicts to New South
Wales ; the Asia to convey 280 female convicts to New South
Wales; and the Susan to convey 300 male convicts to Van
Died en's Land. The two former will sail in a few days, and
the latter in the course of next week, for their respective
destinations.
