ticle, under the date of Madrid, May 24, to the
following effect :—" We are assured, that in con-
sequence of several conferences which havetaken
place between Lord WELLINGTON, tvho has re—
cently arrived in this capital from Paris, and those
Members of the New Government in whom his
Catholic Majesty places most confidence, King
FERDINAND has signed a declaration, in which

of the Cortes of. the Nation, for the purpose of
forming, in.concert with them; a Cimstitutional
Charter for Spain, conformable co the wishes of
the people, and adapted to the existing state of
Europe. According to some persons, who call
themselves well informed, Lord WELLINGTON, in
this negociation, which cannot fail to contribute
to the maintenance of order and the restoration
of union among the different parties, not only has
acted as the Plenipotentiary of Great Britain, but
also as invested with powers from all the Allied
Potentates, who, in confiding so honoitrahle a
mission to his Lordship, wished to give him a
marked proof of their sa isfaction, and of the con-
fidence which they repose In his great talents arid
enlightened understanding."

11.0YAL VISIT TO OXFORD.

OXFORD, June 15, Eight o'Clock.
The grand banquet yes el.( ayevening was stir:-
passingly
,beautifut,.frow the . effect, produced by
the form. of the•edifi.ec, and the faCilities it afrofds,
fora perfect view of the_ company.. About two
hundred dined, of WliOrn fifty were the
,Prince's
guests. The gallery was thrown open to the pub-
lie, who ascended by the spiral staircase, and des-
cended b,. a temporary wooden oiie erected exter-
nally. •

At night the Whole city was illtuninated.-7-
Though in displays efthiS kind tig lundon we excel
whAt could he ekpectee here, in are magnificent and
costly devices in front of our public buildings, the
illuminations of our priiate hotifin tall short of
the beauty of those in the chief streets of Oxford.
The serenity of the weather perthittiit it; the
candles were placed on the outside of thehohs6,
which gives a much stronger light : Oil borne Of
Went the number was countless. The effect of
thi: High-street was magical. The ancient bat-
tleiheiit 'turrets and spires, thus rendered visi-
ble, at
sthidnight, was in the highest degree rile-
,turesque, and approached to the sublime. fhe
porch of St. Mary, with its twisted light-
edcelumnay up in exact cort,_:spondes:ce with the features of
the architecture, wins enchanting. Festoons of va-
riegated lamps, 'were hung.between'all the pinnacles
at the top of the south side of the great Edifice.
Solue.panitings displayed a. tolerable Share of John
Ball's humour. line well-dsed crowds (corn-
prising Kings-•and Princes) tyllo promenaded the
streets, the'great number of elegant females, and
the greater proportion of academical persons in
their,sable robes, intermifwd with the grotesque.
appealattee'of the country folks who had flocked•
from all. parts to see, tl:e sight, gave one a notion
of-a carnival. But in the midst of all this splen-
dour, before one in the morning, and most sud-
denly, the'winds blew anti the rain descended,
and the, lights. were, extinguished ; the glare of
lightning flashed through the city,, and the noise
ortinnulerclosed the hilarity' of the scene. -

THE THEATttE.—This morning the Prince Re-
gent
and-the Duke of Yoik were in readiness at
the apartments of Dr. Hall, Dean of Chris: Church,
at,nine. 1. he Prince of Meeklenbarg, the Queen's
nephew, arrived shortly after, front Lord Har-
cotirt's at Nunehani, where he sleeps : the Prince
is a genteel looking young man,
_and wears small
mitstklehios. 'The Prussian Pritides then came
from Dr. Burton's apartments, and walked through
Peekwater,cotirt to their Royal Father, at Dr.
Cook's, at Corpus Chtisti. 'they are youths of
an ingenuous countenance; anti the CroWn Prince
has a considerable resemblance to the portraits of
his late in-tither. The Prince. of Orange ap.
petered next in his Doctor's gown.. All these'
.Prinees were plainly dressed. Then came Lord
tidinouth and Air. B. Bathurst, in the Wirklsor
uniform, from D.C. Robertson's, at the Observa-
tory (where Lord, lianowhy and Mr. Vansittart
aye likolise accommodated)' • anti waited on the
Regent, as dill Sir Charles- Stewart, from the Bi-
'shop of Oxford's icsdgings in the College. The
Chancellor, robed, art ived last, in his privatc,:ear-
riage. ,A little procession was formed by the Uni-
Vcrsity 13:!tlels. The .Prince Relent followed :
be wore a-darlt wig without powdtir, a blue coat,
the Ordets of ,St. Andrew, the Prnssian Eagle,
And the Golden Fleece, and his Academic gown.
His Royal 'Higlint.ss was extremely cheerful, in
eonvetsatiob with Lord. Grenville on his left
the Doke of York, with his.. Gown and Garter,
was on his right. The Royal Brothers moved at
a sloiv pace to the Divinity' School, .with, Lord
Grenville, in his Lordship's carriage. The Em-
peror of Russia and • his Sister, .and the King of
Prussia, nnornamented, rode in the Prince's car!,
riages, from Merton and Corpus, ' with their at-
tendants.

The Theatre. had been opened very early, and
the Ladies 'were flocking thither hefore seven
o'clock. In the gallery, containing about &60,
places were reserved for 100, who might accom-
pany the Prince's Guests.
The Regent and the Foreign Monarchs, with
their attemlants, were first conducted to the Di-
vinity School. The general' arrangements of the
Theatre were as usual, the whole of the lower
semi-circular gallery . being appropriated to the
Ladies, and the upper one to the Under Gm.-
duates and Bachelors of Arts ; but there was
great alteration in the circles rising from the area.
tt the centre a'platform, the rail rouxl which was
covered with crinu.;on velvet, and'the steps with
crimson cloth. On this .was placed h chair, su-
perbly gilt, with the Prince's plume on the back,
and covered with crimson velvet, for tbe Regent.
On the right_ and left were twas lower chairs, or-
namented with similar materials, for the Emperor
of Russia and King-Of Prussia. The Chancellor
sat to the left of the latter 11.1otrarch ; the Duchess
of Oldenburg to the right of her Imprial Brother.
To the right of the Duchess, rather. lower, sat
the Foreign `Princes is chairs : 'and to the left
of the Chancellor, the other Foreigners and
Nobletnen of inferior rank. The area was al-
lOtted to Masters- of Arts, Bachelors of Law,
and strangers admitted by tickets. The Members
of the Procession, on entering the theatre, divid-
ed on each side, when the Prince Regent, the
Emperor Ale \ander, and the King of Prussia,
advanceCto their respective seats, in their aca-
demical robes. 'fete diplomas of the degree of
Doctor of Civil Law for the Emperor and the
King bad been passed in a previous convocation
on Monday, and their Majesties note received
them after the Chancellor had Opened Con-
vocatiOn. The Chancellor, -then proposed a
diploma'. for the degree Of 'LL: D. for his
Grace the Duke of Wellington; which was int-,
mediately passed, the two Monarchs joining in
the votes, as Doctors of the University. The
honorary degrees of LL. D. Was then con-
ferred upon Prince Metternich, Count Lieven,
and Field Alars;lal Prince Blucher, Mr. Crowe,
the venerable Public Orator, ascended the tribune,
and delivered a brief Latin oration, in honour of
the Illustrious Vsitors; the effect of ‘pbich was
much increased by his serious and impressive de-
livery.
This was followed by the recitation of five co-
pies of English verse': the first by Mr. Williain
Dalby, Fellow of Exeter; the second by. Mr.
Henry lloSanquet, of Corpus Christi ; the third
by-Mr. Robert Ingham, of Oriel; the fourth, (an

Ode) writtet? by Mr: lohn
,Itughes; was spoken
-by Mr.:-:Robert %seail,, both of Oriel,s. and the
f=ifth (an. ode) by Mr. William TaylOr Coleridge;
of Exeter.
After these recitations, Greek verses by. Mr,
C. W. 'Alildmay; of Brasenoe, and a Greek and
Latin Ode by two Christ Chtirch Gentlenien, Con-
eluded the. public exhibitions. . .
To particularise every thing that was interest-
ing in this grand cerenionial, would far eXeeedtlte
possible limits of this cOnnnunication. -To_givc
.taint description of its splendour, Would ba no
wean task for the ablest pen.
The aiiplatise of the..Students_and indeed atthe•
whole assemblage, exceeded all precedent, both
at the entry of the -great Personages,. aid at the
introduction of those admitted to degrees. One
tuiti,ht almost venture to say, that they Made half
Oxford-resound with their cheers, in+ honour of
Alexander; of Blucher, and of the Duke of Wel—
lington.

• After the business of the Theatre was *losect,-,
the Chancellor and other University Officers con-
ducted the Ji.oYal Persona es to ttieir respective
Colleges, Which terminated the public acts and
cerembnies of thispemorable visit.
Blucher, warmly received ao he is (and deserved
to be} by.. all ranks, 'from the Regent • to the
meanest .subject, seems in a Most extraordinary
degree here, as well as in London, the peculiar
idol of the pubPc at large. • The gallant General
is like the favourite candidate at a popular elec-
tion. He cannot stir abroad without. tiringing
. crowd about him, blessing him, offering him their,
rough but honest hands, pressing upon. him to
inconvenience, and vociferating his Kaises so 40
almost to stun the .cars of one who haul • noc
been stilliciently accustomed to the tremendous
roar of artillery. His valour and his age have.
impressed the public: mind. He appears a true
Berman soldier, of no new school.----ile
lodges in the rooms of. Dr. Barnes, at Christ
Chive!). This morning he was perfectly visible,
sitting on 'the end of his bed, the window being
quite up,' smoking his long pipe, in a white vast
.with a ribband over it, with a sedate. military
sang froid. He advanced frequcatly to the win-
dow and bowed, whenever a tolerable number as-.
sembled without, At nine be calne our, drsse,d,
.in black, wearing his stars,. and paid his visit to
the Bishop of Oxford and Sir Charles Stewart.
On • his return he • put ox his full General's' uni-
form, with the Orange Rillhand of the 'Eagle,
and, all his insignia, and went to the Theatre,.
with two Prussian Othcers,. in the Bishop of Ox-
ford's chariot"
The moment the ceremonies at the Theatre
were over, the Ladies drove to the Town-hall,;
which was extremely crowded. '['he Emperor and:
the King of Prussia went thither direct from the.
Theatre.'!'he Mayor and Corporation were_ in
readiness to attend upon their Majesties. who,
together with Blucher; received, with much affa-
bility, the freedom of the City of Oxford in gold
boxes. The Empe.-or and the Duchess of Olden-
burgh the.) set off for Woodstock, with the King.
of Pruisitt, three l'ilissian Princes, -the Prince of
Orange, &c. Some of the Marlborough family
preceded them, to do the honours of Blenheim.
Tht re ‘vils a public breakfatt at two o'clock,
in the Library of All Souls, which was attended
by the Regent, the Duke of York, Prince,iitud•
cher, 'Lords Grenvi.le, Spencer, exc. and a %Try
nionerouS company. There was dancing in the.
Hall till near five.
The Emperor and Duchess of Oldenburgh,
the King of Prussia and his Party, retorned at
five from Blenheim, and have left Oxford fur

London.
The Prince Regent dines this evening at Christ
ChUrch, and leaves ()lord to-morrow.

DRURY-LANE THEATRE.

`The Opera of 7'he Iron Chest was la.st night re-
presented at this Theatre, for the benefit of Mr.
LOVEGROVE, whose merit as an Actor is justly
admired by the Public, and whose character, in
private, is as much respected by his friends.—Mr:
R 4.E. performed the character of Sir Edward Nor.
tinier, in which lee acquired considerable credit,
some years ago, at the Ilaymarkeerbeatre, and
in which he was not less successful last night.—
Mr. TaOVEG ROVE, l'or the first. time, performed the
part of Wilford, and he supported it with such
judgment and feeling, as might be expected from
an Actor of such respectable talents. After the
Play, a new Musical Farce, entitled Fair Cheat,
ing, was brought forward. .The Music is the ac-
knowledged production of Mr/ PARRY, who is
well known as a Composer of merit, as well as
'tor his skill oh the. Harp and other instruments.
It is whispered that the Farce itself is the produc-.
tion of Piara. It is lively and playful in
its structure, and in the variety of its characters.
The Music is also marked by an agreeable va.
riety, some Of the songs being of a very animated
character, and others, particularly one coiled The
Maniac, very affecting. The piece was well sup-
ported by LOVEGROVE, PENLEY, KN,IG HT,
KELLY, and Mr.s.' MOUNTAIN, and experienced st)
favourable a reception,' from tt nwrnerous audience,
that it was announced for Monilaz witti
mous consent.

In the voyage to Woolwich, the Emperor of
Ru,ssiA, the King of PRUSSIA, and the Duchess.
of OLDENBURGH sat in the stern sheets:.-.of the
Ordnance barge, behind the cabin. The Duke of
Yoßg. stood in front cat the cabin, often Conyers-
in with those behind. The' watermen were or-
dered to row slowly, the IllustriOns Foreigners
being desirous to enjoy the whole scene, as thoy
passed. There are now great numbers of foreigrx
ships in the river, and the Monarchs paid parti-
cular attention to the several flags, among which
were many: Prussian and some Russian. Every
ship, British, and foreign, cheered. _Marshal
BLucHER went in tht:- Ordnance schallop, u !skit
has no cabin, but had then an awning,: behind
which the veteran sat, for a time undiscovered.

some pressed him U) drink with: diem, and he

TRY .LORDCHANZaLOW, lidVirtillg, to the-cir--
enrr4,44.e. th,at an appeal from the sentence of the
Eceik-Niamical Court hall been presented pending
the prog-ress of .the Divorce• Bill in that House,
.1-ats:sl the, ttiftictslty under which the House was
1-iaeied, If they proceeded, the ultimate decision
in the •Ecclesiasucal Courts might be different
from that ‘t Iti6h they wive had nit their table ;
and y t^t would be mischievous-. to suffer their
proles so -he stopped in cases of frivolous
ant,cals. Their Lordshsps bo%-i-ever,
inisse of the grounds of the appeal as far
as then- proCeedings, were concerned. It .would
nct Re proper to ask what were the facts to be
proved on the lippeal, .but•' they might ask what
were the general grounds of it ; and therefore he
!imposed, that they' should call the Agents on.
Alonday, anti require -them to state the grounds.
Lord LAUDERDALE stated, that he understood
the ground to be such facility and negligence on
the part-of Dundas, as to afford e:%•:ourage-
Inert; to th.^ offence. In the appeal, she could
proceed tit the expenee of the husband : in that
House, if the cause were to .he heard there, she
must pro ide
.ast Agent and Gounsel for herself,
and she had no fund:... . • -

Lord STANIIOPE highly approved of the course
proposrd by the Noble ilnd Learned Lord on the
Woo}back.

Lord LAUDERDALE again staterl-the hardship of
proceeding in that Hou.;c, where she could hot
dtfend herelf.

Lord STAN HOPE said, she, could never want de-
fenders where she had-one so able and willing as
