THEIR MAJESTIES and the PRINCESSES heard
Prayers read to them yesterday at Kew Palace, by
the Rev. Dr. DE MEMBERG.

This being the Anniversary of the birth of His
Royal Highness the DUKE of KENT, Their Majes-
ties' fourth son, who entered into the 35th year of
his age, the ROYAL FAMILY received the Compli-
ments of the Nobility on the occasion.
This morning Marquis CORNWALLIS and his
Suite left town on their way to Paris. His Lordship
has" refused every application that has been made for
leave to accompany him, and he takes with him only
Lord BROME, Colonel LITTLEHALE3, Lieutenant-
Colonel NIGHTINGALE, and Mr. MOORE, besides a
very numerous Suite of Upper Servants, &c. and two
King's Messengers.
Lord CORNWALLIS has already sent forward
a stud of twelve horses to Paris, but he and his
Suite will travel post. The new carriages have
been lined outside and in, and the trappings of his
equipage are as magnificent as the art of the harness_
maker could invent. The liveries are also em-
broidered in the most superb stile, and silk hats,
with feathers of the greatest cost and beauty, have
been made for eight of his servants.

The Chief Consul has ordered the Dire lor of
the Posts to repair to Calais, and to attend his
Lordship to Paris, that he may suffer no inconve-
nience or delay in procuring horses ; and great num-
bers of labourers have been employed for the last
fortnight in repairing the high roads, and putting
them in the best state that the time will permit.
A relay of 3o horses has been for several days past
stationed at every post, waiting his arrival ; and
the Prefths and Municipal Officers of every town
through which he is to pass, have received di reCtions
to meet him at his entrance, and entertain his Lord-
ship and suite at the expence of the Government.
He is to be accommodated at private houses through-
out his journey, and is expeeted to reach Paris on
Saturday forenoon.
It is reported, that it`is not intended to reduce the
Militia until the spring. The new cloathing,
which it is customary to deliver at, Christmas, has
been sent down to several Regiments, with direc-
tions, however, that it may remain in the packages
until Government be determined as to the period of
their being disembodied.
The Duke de Clio Is rut has received permission
from the First Consul to return to Paris. He ap,l,
plied merely for liberty to go to see his aged mo-
ther, when BONAPARTE returned for answer, that
he should erase his name from the List of Emigrants.
On Friday last, the Armed Tender of His Ma-
jesty's Ship Sans Pareil, the Flag-ship of the late
Lord Hucx SEYMOUR, Commander in Chief on the
Jamaica station, arrived at Portsmouth with his
Lordship's remains. He had been attacked by the
fatal fever of that clime, about the middle of the
summer, from which he had but a short, and
temporary respite, as it returned with increased
violence on the ist of September, and on the s zth
of that month, in the 4.6 th year of his age, depriv-
ed the service of a gallant and meritorious Com-
mander, and society of a most accomplished and
estimable member. His Lordship has left a family
of seven orphan children to lament the severity
of their loss, from whom their amiable mother,
Lady HOR AT lA, had but a few months previously
been taken off!—His Lordship was third brother
to the Marquis of HERTFORD ; he was made Post
in 1779, and .commanded the Leviathan, of 74 guns,
in the memorable Aftion of June 5, 5794, and cap-
tured on that day the Sans Pareil, of 98 guns ; in
which ship, on being promoted to the rank of Rear-
Admiral, he hoisted his flag, in June 1795, where it
continued to fly till his death. He became shortly
afterwards one of the Lords of the Admiralty, but
soon quitted that official appointment, for the Com-
mand of the Leeward Island station ; from whence,
after his conquest of Surinam, he succeeded to the
Chief Command on the Jamaica station, en which
he closed his honourable career of public services.

A Court of Common Council will be held to-
morrow at Guildhall, precisely at one o'cllck, to
receive the report of the Committee appointed by
the Court to "enquire into the nature, duty, and emo-
luments of the office of Town Clerk of London, and
the future management thereof," and on other par-
ticular business.

Orders have been sent to Egypt for the imme-
diate return of Col. WELLESLEY, with his Asiatic
troops, to India. They are to proceed to Telli-
cherry, in order to co-operate with the army of
STEPHFNSON against the Cottiote Rajah, who
continues to make successful warfare on the frontiers
of the Wynaad Country, into which he makes fre-
queat incursion, marking his progress with the most
wanton excesses.

The CoMmander in Chief has countermanded the
order for Officers on leave of absence to join their
respedive Corps in Egypt, Gibraltar, and Minorca,
except of the following from which, it is sup-
posed, that they are to remain. on Foreign Service,
viz, the 2d Battalion of Royals, the 2d Battalion
of Queen's, and the Sth, 23d, and '2sth Regiments.

The East Kent Militia has been ordered to halt
at LeWes for a few -days, some other regiments,
n )w on their march, interfering with their route to
Canterbury.

The West Essex Militia are on their route from
Sussex to Chelmsford.

The skeleton of the 67th Regiment, which was
lately drafted in Jamaica, is arrived at Winchester.
