THE JULY 18.—The King's journey to
Groningen and Friesland, which was spoken of some
titne ago, will soon take place. His Majesty is
expected on the 21st inst. at Groningen, and on the
234 will go to Leenwarden, where the Prince of
Orange is expected on the 224 with his two eldest
sons. After leaving Groningen, his Majesty will
go to Overessel and Drenthe 30th July. His Royal
Highness the Prince of Orange, with his two
youngest eons, arrived here this forenoon, and will
set out to-morrow for Friesland.

- Our Journals contain long accounts of the visit of
the Prince of Orange to Middleburg, Flushing, and
other places.
The exhibition of the works of national art and
manufacture now epen at Brussels is very brilliant.
It consists of above 4,000 articles, which have been
sent by above 1,000 artists and manufacturers ; the
articles offered amount to above 5,000. This is a
greater number than in the preceding exhibitions,
and Is a proof of the progress made within these few
rears.
The number of visitors to the exhibition, among
whom are many foreigners, is very great.
VIENNA, JULY 10.--Prince Metternich, accom-
panied by Prince Philip of Hesse-Homburg, went
yesterday to wait on his Majesty at Baden. It is
reported that this nitre will have the honour of
complimenting the new King of England, in the
mime of our Court, on his accession, as he bad the
mission to compliment the Emperor of Russia at
Warsaw. This is considered as a confirmation of
the report that this Prince will come forward as a
candidate for the Throne of Greece, and that he
being supported in this by our Government, has
been entrusted with these missions in order that he
might be personally known to the two Sovereigns.
The news of the refusal of the Greek throne by
Prince Leopold has caused a great sensation at Con-
stantinople, and there were frequent conferences
between the Reis Effendi and the Ambassadors of
the three Powers. The same letters of the 25th
affirm also that, probably with the guarantee of our
Court, a loan of eight millions of ducats has been
concluded with the house of Rothschild.

The Duke of Reichstadt, hitherto Captain in the
Imperial Regiment of Yagers' has been appointed
by his Majesty Major in the regiment of Stains,
now in garrison at Prague.

CANNA, JUNE 2.—Le Genie, a French brig of
war, commanded by Lieutenant Peyronnet, arrived
at Sude a few days ago; it was sent by Admiral
de Itigny, at the request of the French Ambassador
at Constantinople. M. Peyronnet brought de-
spatches to the Chancellor of the French Consulate,
M. Gaspery, and had orders to settle with the
latter concerning certain communications be made to
the Seraskier, Mustapha Pada, and to the Greeks,
in the name of the Allied Powers. Accordingly,
the protocol of London, of February 3, was corn-
naumcated to MustapLa Paella, in his camp at Ker.
thomadi, and he was requested to cease hostilities
in the parts of the island occupied by his troops.
The Seraskier replied, that he had already forbidden
his troops to leave their cuntonments ; that he had
also ordered the inhabitants of Cann to desist from
their revolutionary excursions, and that he would
be answerable for the tranquillity of the island,
if the Greeks on their part did not trouble it.
Captain Peyronnet made the same communication
to 700 or 800 Spakists, assembled at (Wives. lie
signified to them, that according to the London
Protocol, Candle was to remain in the possession of
the Turks, and an amnesty was granted to all Greeks
by the Porte ; and that all of them might, if they
pleased, leave the island with their property. The
Greeks violently protested against these resolutions,
and announced that they would drive Mustapha
from his actual position, because be had no right to
be there. M. Peyronnet having executed his orders,
immediately sailed to acquaint Admiral de Rigny
of the result of his mission.---Prussian Stales Ga-
zelle, July 17.

The KING has been pleased to direct that Sir
ROMA' WILSON shall be restored to hisrank in the army.
Al it it well known that the deprivation of the gallant
officer woo owing to false evident* laid before the late
Ktuu, the restoration is in on. sense merely an act of
justice; but the mode in which it bee been done entitles
it to be called an act of most gracious kintinout.
We hear that there is soma doubt of Mr.
Ifusatesotr being able to visit his friends at Liverpool at
the period he intended. He was seized with illness while
attending the late KING'S funeral, and remains in a state
of Indirposition.

LONDON,
FRIDAY EVENING, JULY 23, 1880.

PROROGATION OF PARLIAMENT.

This being the day appointed for the pro-
rogation of Parliament, by his MAJESTY in
person, a ceremony which has not taken place
since the commencement of the last reign,
nothing could exceed the animated scene which
at an early hour in the morning presented itself
in the West End of the town. The crowds
which had began thus early to collect in all those
places commanding a view of the line of route
by which the ltoyal procession was to move, had
by twelve o'clock become so dense as to render
it extremely difficult to pass along.
From an early hour workmen were busily

employed in erecting temporary platforms in
front of almost all the public offices and private
residences throughout the whole line of
Parliament-street, from Charing-cross to the
House of Lords, stands in which were let out at
sums varying from 10s. Gd. to ls., according
to the eligibility of the situation. These spe-
culations appeared all, without any exception, to
prove exceedingly lucrative, notwithstanding the
prices of admission demanded by their respec-
tive proprietors, fluctuated with a rapidity
and to an extent without any parallel on the
Stock Exchange.

About ten o'clock several files of the Foot
Guards were stationed at the different avenues
leading to St. James's Palace, and pre-
cisely at twelve o'clock a very strong de-
tachment of the Horse Guards, preceded by
the trumpeters of the regiment were marshalled
out, and shortly afterward defiled on either
aide of Parliament-street. By this time
the carriages of the Nobility were arriving
at the House of Lords in very rapid suc-
cession, and nothing could exceed the ani-
mated scene which presented itself both within
and outside the House.

At half-past one o'clock the procession moved
from St. James's Palace. The Royal cor-
tege consisted of five State carriages, preceded
and followed bylnutnerous: detachments of the
Life Guards.
