COURT OF COMMON COUNCIL.

THE GREAT CIVIC DISAPPOINTMENT.

Yesterday a Court wits held for the purpose of receiving the re-
port of the Royal Entertainment Committee, The interest ex.
cited by recent proceedings anti explanations are intense, and the
Court was crowded. We have never seen so many Members of
the Corporation assembled upon any occasion.
After the LORD MAYOR had addressed the Court, for the
first time taking the chair as Chief Magistrate, and claimed the
assistant's anti advice of his fellow-citizens,
Mt. RICHARDSON, of Cripplegate, said ho had a few words
to say upon a subject of the very highest importance to the Cor.
poration. Mention had been made in the Ilouso of Commons of
certain members of the Corporation who had, in his opinion, and
In that of others, aided and assisted in preventing his Majesty
from coming into the city of London according to the Royal pre.
trial`,—(Cries of " No, no," and louder cries of " Yes, yes.")—
I Ic Was one of those who entertained that impression, and in the
Heading.room he did not meet with any who disagreed with him
on that milt, with the exception of one, who thought that, on
the contrary, the gentlemen alluded to had done every thing In
their power to induce his Majesty to come. He, therefore,
call. d upon the Chairman to nay which of the expressions was the
more correct, and also to specify the nature of the whole of the
proceedings.
' Mr. OLDHAM, the Chairman of the Committee, then ad-
dressed the Court. The Royal Committee had, be said, used
the most anxious and laborious exertions to render all things at
the Guildhall worthy of the Royal reception. They had, there.
fore, felt an anxious desire that nothing in the shape of obstruc-
tion to the free entrance of his Majesty into the city should take
place. NVith the police arrangements they had no right to
meddle, but it became their duty to make such regulations as
would have the efiltet of removing the possibility of impediment
, by the members of the Corporation and their ladies. lie re.
gretted to say, that In this design they were frustrated by the
extraordinary interference of Sir C. S. Hunter, and the vacillat-
ing conduct of the Lord Mayor, As early as the 111th of Octo-
ber, the Committee resolved that, with a view to the object
stated above, the Lord Mayor should leave the Mansion-house
at nine o'clock in the morning, that before tine o'clock the
streets should be cleared, and that from one to three the Corpo.
ration with their ladies should assemble at Guildhall, and that
front three till four the whole pasts; ge front 'Formic-bar to the
Guildhall should be uninterrupted, so that the King's carriage
might meet with no obstruction whatever. It bad been also ar.
ranged that the Nobility should follow his Majesty's carriage,
To their great regret the Committee found that those regula.
dons were to be broken through, the Lord Mayor having deter.
mined upon the novel plan of, having a procession along the
streets from Westminster, through the enormous and dense po.
pulation which would be gathered together on the occasion.
This plan would render it impossible for his Lordship to reach
Guildhall In proper time, and necessarily defeated the object of
the Committee. He Mr. Oldham) had waited on the Commit-
tee of Alderman to remonstrate upon the subject, but he re.
ceived no answer of a distinct nature. On the 4th of November
he went *Join with the deputation to the same Committee, and
Sir C. S. Hunter, who was in the chair, replied to his urgent
remonstrances upon the impropriety of his Lordship's proceed.
log by land, that the Lord Mayor had made up his mind to do
so, He (Mr. Oldham) then put the question distinctly to the
Lord Mayor,. who replied, that he had been advised by his bro-
ther Aldermen to return in procession through Westminster,
are., and he would follow that advice. The Committee then
altered their arrangements in conformity with this project, but
afterwards those arrangements were abandoned, Sir C. S. Hun-
ter having had an interview with the Secretary of State, who
represented the impropriety of a procession upon the part
of the Lord Mayor. '*'his was all that occurred up to seven o'clock
on Saturday night within the knowledge of the Committee.
Mr. Deputy DA W interrupted the question, by rising to move
a vote of thanks to the late Lord Mayor, but the two questions
were combined in the discussion, and gave rise to a sharp ills.
cushion. The worthy Deputy described the late Lord Mayor as
a most excellent man, who had at an advanced age distinguished
himself by kindness, hospitality, courtesy, thc,
Mr. WOOD said he knew that the late Lord Mayor was a
most amiable man, and greatly regretted that the state of his
health rendered a locum learns necessary, and that he had
chosen such a locum keens too—a locum keens who was capable
of acting with such egregious folly,—(Laughter, and loud cries
of " Hear, hear.")—lt would appear that the object of the worthy
locum knees was to throw all manner of ridicule and contempt
upon the. Corpuration.—(Loud cries of " Hear.")
Mr. STEVENS also deeply regretted the want of judgment
exhibited in choosing the locum Maces, but was far from think.
lug that the only error with whirls the Lord Mayor was charge.
able. It should be considered that his Lordship had treated the
application of a numerous body of requisitionists with the most
marked indiderenee—he meant the 70 requisitionists of that
Court, upon the question of the revolution in France.—(llear,
hoar,).The refusal on that occasion was any thing but kind and
courteous. It would also be recollected that, on another ocea.
Lion, that of the application for the use of:the Hall for the free-
men of London, his Lordship had acted with a similar disregard
of courtesy? It was necessary to mark the sense of the Corpora-
tion on conduct of this description, and he should, if that part
of the vote of thanks were not withdrawn, moat certainly vote
against it,—(Cries of " Hear, hear," and " No, no.")
Mr. GALLOWAY said that he had never seen such arbitrary
conduct from any Lord Mayor as the late Chief Magistrate had
exhibited in the Court of Commit Council : were it not, in-
deed for the possession of some good qualities Of a high order, the
tate Lord Mayor could never have been endured, Ile (Mr. Gal.
!way) greatly disliked the profession of liberal opinions when
combined wills tyrannical acts. lie could much sooner excuse
the union of avowed and -actual oppression.--(Hear, hear.)—
Courtesy was no part of the character of Alderman Crowder.
No other Chief Magistrate had thrown such a *light upon the
members of that Court, and he could by no Ismael see why they
should thank him for unkindness, or admire him for the arhi.
trary stride* he had taken.
Here Sir C. S. Hunter entered the Court. The moment he
appeared there was is en al, hiss and .001410 of the members
were convulsed with laughter. He had advattesd about half
way up the Court when the members yelled. " What t what I"
said he, turning about, " God bless me I what's all this about 1"
The laughter increased, and after looking about him with cvi.
dent surprise, the worthy Baronet walked quickly over to the
neighbourhood of the Lord Mayor, and sat dawn.
Mr. GALLOWAY proceeded. He participated, he said, in
the pleasure of the interruption, which he • knew was not in.
tended for him, but for rarity of such a kind as could meet with
po parallet—(Loud laughter and cheers.)--lie regretted to be
obliged to,ppporse the vote of thanks, lie was sorry too that the
late Lord Mayor had landed a locum knots whose conduct had
rendered hint so pre-eminently ridiculous—(Cheers)—for the ob.
surdity took a,very large and extensive field, and was likely to
Embrace other objects, He hoped that the result of such an un.
fortunate choice would produce a lesson to the present and sue.
ceeding mayoralties, and that Chief Magistrates would show a
little regard for common understanding in the selection of those
to whom they delegated their authority even for a day.—(Hear.)
Mr, TICK:SP:It defended the conduct of the late Lord Mayor,
whose prerogative it was, he said, to accede to or negative a re.
quisition.
Mr. TnoRIAIILL said that nobody disputed that such was
the prerogative of the Lord Mayor, but the question was, wise..
tier his late Lordship had justly exerchsed that prerogetive.—
(I Lear,- hear.) •
Mr. DIXON insisted that the late Lord Mayor had acted in
the most unuzcvtpttonable manner.
Mr. itieIiARDSON thought the Lord Mayor deserved praise
(be three quarters 9f his sovereignty in the city, and therefore
he should only negative the vote of thanks as regarded the last
three months.—(A laugh.)
Sir C. 14, rose amidst loud laughter. " Consider,"
said he, " that i presided at the last Court with great patience
for thirteen hours, and listen to me."— (Laughter, and cries of
" Oh, oh 1")." It is only fair that after the reception you just
gave me, all of you, that you should hear me. I Sat over you
thirteens the lter day. 1 assume there is no one adios, of
mine concerned in this business, in allusion to my unthrtunate
Wend, except on Saturday last, when the unfortunate news was
hrought to me. Upon my word no man regret* the unfortunate
dirappOintment more than me. We had every thing to too, and
nothing to gain. It ss said that I applied to be locum tenors
now it is twenty years since I was Chief hlagistrate over you, and
I hope 1 am as calm now as I was the other slay after presiding

noosenie !")—lo this straits was the lion. Baronet going on when
the Cana actually roared against him.
Alderman TH M PSON said, the Lord Mayor bad better at,
eide whether the flim. Baronet was or way not in order,

(16tcessive laughter, during which Sir C. S. Hunter sat down)
After a few observations ftom Mr. PE wraEssi Mr, Itotrrn, anti
others, the vote was carried:
Mr. OLDHAM moved that the teport of the itoyal Entertain,.
MAW Committed he ndw read:

The report was aecordily read, and was, in substance, that
the Court tiVeply lamented that any circumstance should have
ogetirred to prevent the great honour which they had anticipated
of his Modesty's visit to the city, and that they felt reluctant,
after the preparatiOns which had been made at Guildhall for the
reception of hit Majesty, to disturb the arrangements, until they
had been 1, sewed by thd eiti2cus under certain regulations as to
time and »Withers.

Alderman NVOOD then rose, and said, that he wished shortly
to explain to the Court the circumstances which had fallen under
his own observation, respecting the police of the City. The
Board of Aldermen had taken etiery ptissible pains that the civil
power should net dtilY ni hutnerolia but as efficient as possible
on the ()Heston of his Majesty's intended visit. For this purpose,
in addition to the city police and ward constables, the Artillery
Company, and also the East India Company's corps had tendered
their services, and were accepted. After this arrangement hal
been completed, the Committee heard that his Majesty had ex-
pressed an objecti to see red teats In the eity.—(Hear, aid think thinking that the e twb Corps already named might be objected
to on that excohnt, the Committee applied to the Home Office
upon the sUbjedt, and after some delay they were told that there
was no objection. These two corps threw into the city an ad-
ditional force of' 800 men, and it was arranged that the Artillery
Company should be placed in Guildhall.yard, and that the East
India Company's corps, consisting of SOO then should be placed
in King-street. The force at the Comtnand of the Committee,
with this addition, itmOubted to 1,6t0 men ; added to which there
was 150 flremeh, and the dffibrent trades that had offbred their
services to keep the streets amounted to about 300 more. A
single soldier was therefore not wanted in the city.—(Hear,
hear.) But did the Court think that it was yet too late for his
Majesty to visit the city, and did not every member now present
believe that if his Majesty should Consent to do so that the great
mass of the inhabitants of London and also of Westminster
would rise and term themselves into a guard.—(Hear,l hear, and
applause.) He hoped and trusted that this Court had not yet
given up the hope of seeing his Majesty in his faithful city of
London, but he refrained at present from making any motion
upon the subject —(Hear.)
Sir C. S. HUNT!: It said the Alderman (Wood) had saved
him three.fourths of his speech. I had, said he, one communi.
cation With the Secretary of State, but not till Saturday, and
then the question was, when his Majesty should meet the Lord
Mayor at the city gates. I told Mr. Phillips, that what soldiers
his Majesty likes there could not be any objection to their
coming into the city. I was locusts tcnens to the Lady Mayoress,
and I told her Ladyship I could'nt act for her, and she said, if
you can't, Alderman Wood will.—(Roars of laughter.)—lt was
my peculiar fortune, from the 27th of October I never omitted a
Committee. I was a little more forward than the rest. _

A Mess BER—What induced you to go to the Secretary of State
on Saturday ?
Sir C. S. lIUNTER—I believe a personal request from the
Under-Secretary, Mr. Phillips. He then took a letter out of his
pocket, which appeared to be from Sir R. Peel, and requested
him to call at the Home Oflice, at two o'clock on Sunday,
A MEMBEH—But how came you at the Office on Saturday P i
Sir C. S. HUNTER—I am inclined to think it is quite m-
material,—(Roars of laughter.)—There is so much confusion, I
would rather say it was my own direct comnu without
any solicitation from any one.—(Hear, hear.)-171 tell you all
all about it, At two o'clock on the Saturday the Lord Mayor
and I were tired and could stay no longer, and so we went to the
Secretary of State's Office, and something was said very seriously
previous to Mr. Peel's coming in about the Intention to murder
the Duke of Wellington.-41toars of latighter.)—Now, this was
the first interview I ever had with Sir Robert Peel. The Hon.
Baronet, after beating about the bush for a considerable time,
proceeded to describe that meeting. " After waiting," said he,
" a short time, Sir Robert Peel came in and sat himself down,
and the first thing he said was, what shall we do with the Duke
of Wellington.—.(!.curd laughter.)—lt had been previously no.
ticed, mind you, that such and such was intended, for you
know the mob had pelted the Duke in the Park.—(Laughter.)-s-
Well, and so I said to Sir Robert reel,—ls it necessary that
the:Duke of Wellington should come to the city at all ?—(Loud
and long.continued laughter).--upon which Sir Robert Peel
turned round and said, rather sharply,—can it be otherwise ?
And what did I say to that Y Why that the Duke of Wellington
was the public property of the world—(Laughter)—and I stated
most distinctly that no harm should happen to him—(Bravo.)—
adding that his Majesty's body guard, if he brought them, would
start up to a roan in defence of the Duke. I certainly said, too,
that if thousands of persons should intercept the King on his
way, to place in his hands a petition representing their starving
dispositions—(shouts of laughter)—why, In that caw, I said, or
rather suggested, that it would be prudent to have some troops
placed at a great distance, because if there should be any danger
of a riot, the constables would not be sufficient ; and I told Sir
Robert that the city constables, poor fellows, had been working
night and day, which they had done by the by, but I wanted to
give them a puft:"—(Renewed laughter.)—Tile Hon. Alderman
then went on to say, that on the following day (Sunday) it was
arranged that the military, both horse and foot, should be sta-
tioned at ditibrent places, but so as they should not be seen, and
that an Alderman should be placed at each station. " I confess,"
said the Hon. Bart. " that I began to shake when I heard of this,
and I did not half like the notion to tell you the plain truth—
(Laughter)—and 1 said to myself here will he a pretty end to our
jollification." me shouts of laughter which followed prevented
the Hon. Baronet from being heard for some minutes.) " Not
wishing to take upon myself the responsibility of breaking this
news to my brother Aldermen," continued the Hon. Baronet,
" I asked Sir Robert Peel If he would be good enough just to
give me a letter, but he said, rather short by the by—. Sir, its
the law, and you know it.' " After sonic further onservations
the Hon. Baronet concluded by stating that he had in his opi.
nion done his duty.
Alderman WA ITHMAN said, that after the statement which
he had made upon this subject in the Home of Commons, he
did not think it would be at all necessary for him to enter into
any lengthened explanation.—(llear, hear.) The Lord Mayor
had no doubt committed a great error, but still his Lordship was
not the only party to blame in the transaction, and certainly the
saddle ought to be put upon the right horse.—(Hear, hear.) All
he could say upon the subject was this, that when the Court or
Aldermen investigated the subject, they could never draw from
the Hon. Baronet a single fact which he had to-day admitted
with respect to his interview with Sir Robert Peel at the Home- 1
ottice.—(Hear, hear,) It had been very generally stated in the
House of Commons, that his Majesty's visit was prevented in
consequence of a deputation from the City which had waited
upon his Majesty's Ministers. The Lord Mayor was, therefore,
not the only one who went to the ilame.office upon the subject.
But be would ask, was it not incumbent upon his Majesty's
Ministers to inquire from his Lordship upon what grounds lie
had founded his representations, what proons, what documents
he could show to prove his statement ?—(ilear, hear.) His
Majesty was disappointed, the City was disappointed, and the
public were disappointed, and all in consequence of this letter.
Ile (the worthy Alderman) had ascertained that not less than
1,000 houses on the intended line fixim the Palace to Guildhall
had made preparations for the occasion, and that each house on
an average expended no less than 20/. for illuminations, and not
only that but persons had invited their friends to come up from
the country a considerable way and at a great expense to see the
show, and bad provided provisions to entertain them, all of which
would lie upon their hands. The worthy Alderman concluded
his observations by expressing his surprise how the Government
could, after holding a Cabinet Council upon the subject, come to
such a conclusion, with such evidence before them. With respect
to what might hereafter be done to repair the blunder, he should
oral no opinion.
Alderman VENABLES would not trespass further on the
time of the Court than merely to state what he conceived to boa
most gcatifying fact—namely, that out of the 16 or 17 persons
brought before him, as the sitting Magistrate at Guildhall,
charged with having been concerned in the riots on 'Tuesday
night, not one of them could be proved, after the most careful
inquiry, to have ,joined in the riots from a political motive. In
fact, 12 out of the number stated were reputed thieves. He
tinned this fact to show the character of the mob.—(Hear.)
Mr. C. PEARSON having been called for several times, and
having as often attempted to address the Court, now rose, and
said that he should not endeavour, by shuffling ,or evasion, to
disguise the act which lie had committed, and " make the worse
appear the Better reason." It was not to be disguised that die.
content, arising from various causes, but more particularly from
the tone adopted by Ministers at the opening of the Session of
Parliament bad taken possession of the public mind, and it was
i under that mpression that he addressed a private letter to the
Duke of Wellington, which he was still convinced was well
founded.—(Reaul, read.)—Ho certainly had no intention to con.
teal the letter, and he should, therefore, not hesitate to make
its contents known to the Court, having received the permission
of the noble individual to whom It was addressed to that effbet
Mr. Pearson accordingly read his letter to 'the Duke of Welling,
ton, advising his Grate not to join the 'procession, under the
present feeling of the populace, and adding, that his doing so
might lead to dangerous consequences; and putting it to the
consideration of his Grace whether it would be wise, under all
circumstances, to brave public opinion by a mere display of that
animal courage of which no man could doubt that he possessed,
The letter concluded by saving. that his Grace might expect to
be received with .. cold indiftbrence" in the Hall by those citi-
zens who would be assembled there. 'This (,added Mr. Pearson)
"is _tire bead and ftont of mine ()Minding." I wrote fearlessly
what I honestly thought, anti no circumstance shall prevent me
from doing so again.
Mr. 110 tins could not but express regret that any such on.
servation as "cold indifference" should have been used.—(lleac.)
With respect to the explanation afibrded by the lion. Baronet,
(Sir C. Hunter) he wished to mate one or two remarks. Sir It.
Peel distinctly asktaittlie lion. Baronet in his (Mr. Mouth's) pre.
Bence what grounds he had for suggesting that a military force
would be necessary P and the Hon. Baronet said that he iqqee.
headed danger from the mob.— (Hear.)lit was indeed quite clear
that, from the explanation aftbrilecl by the lion. Baronet, Sir IL
Peel had reason to suspect that the arrangements in the city were
such as justified apprehension • and I still think, added Mr. Routh,
as I thought then, that his Malesty's Ministers were quitejustified
in the step whiclifthey had to en.--(Hear.)
Mr. OLDHAM, after explaining the part which he had taken
in the business, declared that his only object in going to the &ere.
tary of State was for the regulation of local matters, Ile felt as
deeply as any man that circumstances should have arisen to pre.
vent the Royal visit; hut the fact was this, that Guildhall was
now in a state of amiplete preparation, and he theretbre wished
to ask the Court what was to be done, and whether it was their
pleasure that the Court should be thrown open to the public, to
repay, in some degree, the general disappointment which hsd
been experienced. For this purpose a given number or tickets
might be issued to the members of this Court, to admit their
friends under certain regulations.—(llear.)

Mr, ROUTII said, there was one circumstance which he had
omitted to state. NVhen the Hon. Baronet (81r C. Hunter) was
questionecl as to the efficiency of the city force, he said that no
reliance could be Placed upon the city police, and snapping his
fingers, added, they ate not worth that.—(filiame, shame.)
Mr. PELLATT mid that, in order to facilitate the business of
the Court, ho should, without further preface, move that an
humble address be presented to his Most Gracious Majesty, by
the members of this Court representing the city of London at

Mr. UALLOWAY said he felt great pleasure in seconding the
motion.
Mr. !MITCH A RD spoke in tavour of the address.
Alderman FAItEIIitOTHEIt said it was quite clear that if
such an address as that which had just been proposed were pte.
sented to his Majesty, he would be driven to the alternative
either of dismissing his Ministersi or again renting the Invite.

clearly be, by a sort of side.whici, to procure the dismissal of the
King's advisers.
Mr. JONES spoke against the address, and hoped it would not
be pressed under any excited feelings which the thiseppetettheht
bful occasioned.
Mr. BLEADEN considered that the address was by no means
Well timed. If the proposal was to be entertained at all, the
butter way would be to fix a clay fora discussion, upon the pro.
PrietY of aentling such an address to his Majesty under existing
clrcurristrinc.es. He,thereforo, prayed his friend not to press his
motion at present.--(Bear, hear.)
• Mr. THOUNIIILL objected to the address, but at the same
time would not give up the hope of seeing the King of England
seated amongst his loyal citizens of London. The late Lord
Mayor, observed Mr. 1 hornbill, gave up hit office an account of
indisposition of body, and I only wish (turning to the Alder.
won't bench) that ho had not given up his authority to one

Mr. PEACOCK, although anxious to get rid of the Ministers,
could not think of doing so by placing his Majesty in a situation
Which would leave him but that alternative.
Mr. RICII ARD TAYLOR concurred in desiri or to see the
address withdrawn.—(Loud and general eries of

LONDON,
SATURDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER IS, 1830.

The 'new Civil List was last night brought for-
ward by the CitaNcELLolit of the EXCHEQUER, and
a preciouejnediey it was ! The Right Honourable
Gentleman's method of simplifying the details, by
taking away particular items of expenditure and
adding others, strongly reminds us of the Irishman's
plan of cutting a piece off the foot of his blanket
on -a cold night, and adding it to the top, in
order to lengthen the covering. The reduc-
tion proposed did not seem to afford satisfac-
tion, although it amounts, according to the Chan-
cellor's statement, to an immediate saving of
138,0001., and a contingent one of 162,0001., while
the Civil List is burdened with additional charges
of 100,0001. The sum total proposed for his
MAJESTY was 070,0001. The Civil List for the
late reign averaged about 1,221,0001. annually..

We find the following remarks in the Morning
Chronick, and, as they accord with our own feelings
on the subject, we hesitate not to adopt them :
" A very important question was asked last night
by Mr. GORDON, whether it was the intention of
the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER, previous to
entering upon the discussion respecting the Civil
List, to lay before the House the details of the
English Pension List?' The CHANCELLOR OF
the EXCHEQUER replied, that the Honourable
Gentleman must be aware that the details of the
English Pension List never were given.' Mr. HUME,
Ott this, reminded the Right Hon. Gentleman, that
when he had made a similar demand in 1828, it was
objected to upon the ground that the details could
not be brought forward until there was a new settle-
ment of the Civil List.

" We have a strong prepossession against all
pensions not voted on some specific ground. No
man has a right to the public money Ash° has not
done the public service. Charity covereth a mul-
titude of sins; but to give away the property of
other 4 is not charity. .

" We trust the they is not far distant when the
public money shall be applied only for services ren-
dered to the public."

It appears by the. Gazelle of last night, that that
model of "enlightened" rulers, the King of Hot,-
LAND, has declared from the 7th instant, the coast
of the Kingdom of .the Netherlands, belonging to
the province of West Flanders, with the ports of
the same, including those of Antwerp and Ghent,
in a state of blockade;—and this, be it remembered,
when there is a great scarcity of provisions in Bel-
gium I We presume his Dutch Mightiness will be
next complimented for his humanity.

We have only room to point attention to the re-
port of the Common Council yesterday, when that
ridiculous worthy—the late locum lotions—gave ad-
ditional proofs of his high claims to advise the Duke
of WELLINGTON upon all questions SAVO that of—
reform. What buffoonery !

SErr. 10.—The eighth Anniversary of our independence was
celebrated with every testimony of public satisfaction and en.
thusiasm.

Sem it —His Majesty gave an audience on the 10th to the
Chevalier Ankerloo who is corneAo reside here, as Charge

31IDDLEBURG, Nov. B.—The day before yesterday the
bands of the insurgents that were still at Aardenburg lett that
place, and, as they stated, by order of General Duvivier, who
commands in Ghent. Their commander, Gregoire, before he
departed caused the Brabant flag to be taken down, and declared
that no ftirther incursion would be made into the territory of
Zealand, on the other side of the Scheldt. Under the pretext
that arms had been concealed, four inhabitants of Aardenburg

they were set at liberty.
BREDA, Nov. 9.—We expect Prince Frederick to-day' who
will tomorrow review our garrison, which consists of above
4,5+00 men.
We learn that the Prince is authorised to confer rewards on
such as have rendered themselves worthy of them, and thus to
encourage the troops who were entrusted with the defence of
their beloved country to do their duty with zeal, It is added
that his Majesty has sent the Grand Cross of the Order
of William to General Chasse, for the important services which
he has rendered to the country, and that his Majesty has also
sent him 32 Crosses of that Order, to be given to those who
have particularly distinguished themselves.
GORNICHEIN, Nov. 9.—We learn from Nimeguen that the
town of Cleves and its envirous,which had hitherto been without
troops, have lately been occupied by a corps of Prussians, which
some state at 3,000, others at 'l,OOO men, These troops have ex.
tended their cantonments as far as Kranenburg and Wielder, not
far from Nimeguen.
THE HAGUE, Nov. 10.—Considering that the law relative
to commerce and navigation, in order to adapt them exclusively
to promote the interest of the north provinces, must be heed
from all those enactments which were incorporated with them
for the benefit of the United Provinces, and it is important that
the Chambers of Commerce and Manufactures should first
deliberate on the subject, to enable them to give their
opinion on every article of the Tariff' of Import, Ex-
port, and Transit Duties; his Majesty the King has, by a reso-
lution of the 7th inst., changed the Deputies of Finance of the
Waterstaat of national industry and colonies, and also the
Board of Direct Taxes and Ditties of Customs ant Excise to
revise, with a view to the interest of the faithful provinces of
the kingdom, the tariff of import, export, and transit duties,
after consulting. with the Chamber of Commerce and Maim.
factures. His Majesty expects that the Chambers, considering
the urgency of the subject will zealously endeavour to auist in
accelerating a task, the consequences of which are very
portant.
