KING'S VISIT TO SCOTIAND:

It is not his MAJESTY'S intention to visit Glas-
gow during hiss tay in Scotland. The following
letter, upon the subject, from Mr. PEEL, has been
received by the Lord Provost of that city
" Whitehall, July 26, 1822.
" MY LoRD—I have the honour to acknowledge the receipt
of your Lordship's Letter ; and, having communicated it to
his MAJESTY, I am commanded to express his great regret
that it will not be in his power to visit the city of Glasgow dur-
ing the period to which his stay in Scotland must necessarily
be limited

" I have the honour to be, my Lord,
" Your Lordship's most obedient and very humble Servant,
" ROBERT PEEL

" The Lord Provost of Glasgow, &c. &c."

[From the Caledonian Mercury.]
None of the Royal Dukes are expected to visit Scotland on
this occasion ; and we believe the Royal visit will not extend
beyond the neighbourhood of Edinburgh.
[From the Inverness Journal.l
We are informed that his Majesty will for certain visit the
Duke of Athol. Preparations are, it is said, making for a
grand stag hunt to be given during his stay at Blair. The
whole tailorage of the north-east of Perthshire are now busy in
equipping the tenantry' of the Duke of Athol in proper cos-
tume. There is a report that his Majesty will also visit Gor-
don Castle and Dunrobin, but very little credit is given to it.
[From the Edinburgh Observer.]
One spirit seems to pervade all ranks of people ; terunani-
mous feeling seems to be, that Edinburgh shall appao our
Monarch as Edinburgh ought to appear, the second city in the
British empire, and consequently the second city in the world.
She may not be entitled to this rank, perhaps, n respect of her
population, or of her wealth, but in what other respects can she
lose her claim to this station ?
BODY GUARD.--His Majesty has been graciously pleased to
command the services of his Royal Company of Archers, who
will do duty in the Palace, as the band of pensioners do upon
Levee and Drawing-room days in London. The reddendo of
the Royal Company's Charter is to present a pair of barbed
arrows to the King. These are in preparation.
PROGRESS TO THE CASTLE.—The arrangements for this
procession are going on{ but cannot be finally fixed until some
idea can be had of the numbers of different bodies who have
expressed their anxious wish to attend upon thigs occasion It,
.
is contemplated that the Clergy shall take their station oppo-
site to St. Giles's, and that the Members of the Senatus Acade-
micus shall be placed next to the College of Justice, and op-
posite to the County Hall. Such of the students as may be
in town will have a place assigned them towards the Lawn-
market. The students, it has been rumoured, will not only
wear the general badge of " Welcome to Scotland," but also
the peculiar distinction of their countries ; as the Thistle, the
Rose, the Shamrock, or the Leek.
BANQUET.-r-The works in the Parliament House are in
considerable forwardness, and were inspected by the Lord Pro-
vost and the proper Officers on Saturday. The King's ,table
is placed upon a platform at the south end, elevated by three
or foutsteps, and is of an irregular elliptic form ; the Sovereign
will be seated in the centre of it, under a crimson velvet
canopy, so as to see the whole company, whose tables will be
placed along each side,-similar to those at the Coronation Ban-
quet. The Royal Arms will be placed at the south, and those
of the City at the north end.
The Advocates' Library will used by the Sovereign as a with-
drawing-room ; and the company will be accommodated in
that of the Writers.

It is understood that his Excellency the LORD
LIEUTENANT Of IRELAND will go to Scotland i❑
his yacht, on the occasion of his MAJESTY'S visit,
accompanied by Sir Wm. BETHADI, Ulster King
at Arms, and other official i)ersonages.—(lllonz-
ing Herald.)

UNIVERSITY INTELLIGENCE.
CAMBRIDGE, AUG. I.—The Rev. Bowen Thickins has been
presented to the perpetuaLcuracy
_of Temple Grafton, in t
Francis
Ferdinand° Bullock, Esq.—The Marquis of Hertford has ap-
pointed the Rev. Christopher Jeaffreson Rector of Iken, Suf-
folk, one of his Lordship's Chaplains.—Alderman T. S. Day,
of Norwich, is elected Sheriff of that city for the year ensuing.

AIRS. BEARDMORE.—We feel much regret in 1
announcing the death of this Lady. She was I
well known to the public, when Miss PARE.E, as
one of the most celebrated Musicians of this
Country. As a vocal, Performer, and in science,
taste, and skill, on the Piano-forte, she had very
few equals. She was the elder daughter of Mr.
PARSE, sen., a Gentleman, whose excellence as
a Performer on the Oboe, and whose personal
worth, have raised his name into high and just
estimation.—Mrs. BEARDMORE was distinguish-
ed, in private life,for good sense, general know-
ledge, unaffected ease, and elegance of manners,
and for every quality that could endear her to an
affectionate husband and family, and to a large
circle of friends, who will deeply lament the
1 loss of so amiable and accomplished a character.

We learn from a source on which we can place
reliance, that the business in Manchester, Leeds,
and other manufacturing districts of England, is
at present going on briskly and advantageously.
Such is the abundance of money in London, that,
our Correspondent informs us, any sum can be
obtained at two per cent. interest.—(Glasgozo
Courier, .lulg 30.)
We understand that the Mayor of this town
has written to the Lord Mayor of Dunr.lN, re-
specting the contagious fever said to have been
lately brought here by some of the poor Irish.
Ilis Lordship has stated in reply, that the city of
Dublin never was more free from fever than at
this time, and that he has reason to believe no
persons afflicted with that disorder have recently
embarked for England. We are happy to add,
that the town of Liverpool was never more free
from infectious fevers than at the present mo-
ment.—(Livapool Courier.)
An eclipse of the moon takes place this even-
ing about eleven o'clock, which will be perfectly
visible, if the night prove a clear one.
. The Steyne at Brighton has just been plough-
ed up, and is to be laid out as a lawn.
