LIVERPOOL, SEPT. '2O.

THE gratifying reception which the PatNci of
WALES.has-met with in this town and Vicinity, and
which we trust that Englishmen will always; be
proud to shew to all the offspring of so excellent.a
Monarch as they possess, induced His Royal High-
ness-to intimate that he should call on the INIAvoa
for the purpose of expressing his thanl-.1 to !inn
and the' Corporation for their loyal attentions.—
The Whole body therefore assembled to meet his
Royal Highness, and they each' individually recei,:e
leis acknowledgments, tendered with flattering affa-
bility. He then visited the Botanic Garden, and
testified much pleasUre at the sight. Lord DERBY,-
with his usual liberality, had an ox roasted whole
for the populace, to whom plenty of strong beer
was given. _ _

• The PRINCE, to gratify the people, passed through
the principal streets, escorted to and from Knowesley
by Major VALKNER'g Yeomanry. With that spirit of
humanity which he inherits from his benignant Sire,
the PRINCE direCted that considerable sums should
be given, in his name, to all our Charitable Institu-
tions.

No Court of Aldermen was held to-day.—The
LORD MAyoa,..after inspeEting the Returns of the
Mealweighers, ordered the price of Bread to be ad-
vanced 2d. in the Peck Loaf. . '
