" TWELFTH OF JULY..—VICEREGAL PROVO-
CATIONS TO DISTURBANCE.
Those of our readers who are not disgusted with the poli-
tical dishonesty displayed in the following paragraph, will
probably smile at the impotent attempt of the Mai/ to make
mischief. NN e have. retained the slanderous prefix, but do
nut choose to pollute our columns with all the personal abuse
thrown it the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland :—" Our northern
letters," begins the menflacious " are full of alarm at
the preparatory movements for creatin,g disturbances on the
12th instant, instituted by the Paternal Government. The
experience of three successive sears has proved that, but for
the provocation and insult of a military occupation of their
towns and hamlets, t 1 .7e Protestants of the North had determined
to give up their public processions, aid to content themselves
with the private and domestic celebration of the event and
its principles which gave to this empire a free Constitution.
But men conscious of rectitude do not like to be treated as
criminals; loyal men revolt against the idea of being coerced
as rebels ; and the it natural indignation produces that reac-
tion which, whilst it evidences nothing more than resistance to
an unjust imputation, their enemies seize upon and construe
into resistance to the laws and defiance of the authorities.
Let there be no movement of troops or police, and ther,
will be no processions. If the military invasion be continued
we will not answer for the consequences."
Is language such V. 13 this calculated to prevent or to excite
disenier‘? The method of the Mail in proving itself a friend
to order, is in truth rather Irish.

We have authority for contradicting the statement
that her Majesty intended to honour the review et Woolwich to.
morrow (Thursday) with her presence.

Her Majesty will entertain all the Ambassadors
Extraordinary at Buckingham Palace, on Thursday, the 12th instant.
Most of these Illustrious Personages will remain in England until after
the Queen's last fete for the season, which is fixed for the 30th instant.

The Earl of Erroll, as Master of her Majesty's
Euckhoun•la, gave a banquet at the Clarendon Hotel, Bond-street, on
Monday evening, to the Duke of Cleveland, Duke of Portland, Duke
of Richmond, Marquis of Tavistock, Earl of Chesterfield, Earl of
Stradbroke, Lord Suffield, Lord George t3entiack, General Grosvenor,
Colonel Peel, Hon. Colonel Anson, Earl of Lichfield, Sir Gilbert Heath-
cote, Sir James Graham, Marquis of Westminster, Lord John Fitzroy,
Messrs. Stanley, Byng, Greville, &c.
One of the most costly and splendid harnmercloths
displayed on Thursday last, at the Coronation of her Majesty, was that
of the Earl of Derby. It was composed of superfine scarlet broad cloth,
with festoons and bows of blue cloth. The ends, tassels, and trimmings
were of real silver. The centre contained the crest and coronet of the
Noble Earl, richly embroidered.

Marshal Soult and the other distinguished foreigners
visited the extensive brewery of Messrs. Barclay and Perkins, Bankside,
on Monday. Marshal Soult, the Duke de Nemours, Count Sebastiani,
the French Ambassador, with their respective suites, reached the above
place at twelve o'clock, and were met at the door of the counting-house
by the heads of the establishment. After waiting for a few minutes,
Mr. F. Perkins, sen., accompanied his distinguished visitors over the
whole of the brewery. The Gallant Marshal appeared to be lost in ad.
miration on seeing the immense vats ; lie had no idea that such exten-
sive vessels were used for the holding of beer.

Parliamentary electo in rs cities and boroughs, enti-
tled under the Reform Act, will lose their votes for the next year, un-
less they pay on or before the 20th of July instant all the poor's rates
(and window tax, if any) payable from them in respect of their premises
previously to the 6th of April last. County voters must send in their
claims by the 20th of July instant.

It was said of the late Mr. Wilberforce that " he
was always of the opinion of the last speaker—except when he happened
to speak last himself."

A NEW NOVELIST.—Report says (and she tells
true much oftener than her libellers would lead us to expect) that in the
lady-author of "The Glanville Family," we shall be called upon to
hail a novelist whose exquisite tact and,talent is ,the delineation of real
life will cause the most popular of het cooter‘poraries to look about
them. We are assured that for absolute' truth of character, added to
the keenest satire, and the most qiief-yet inimitable vein of humour,
there has been nothing like " The Glanville Family" since the days of
Miss Austin.

HOT AND COLD.--Lord Ashburton, with a sin-
gular infelicity peculiar to himself, while he upholds the corn laws as the
best that ever were adopted, deprecates the opposition given by the
landed interests to the plan for grinding corn in bond, which is neither
mere nor less than praising the law, and advocating its violation.

, -
Mr. Howard, formerly of the well-known firm of
Howard and Gibbs, money.brokers, who failed about eighteen years age
died yesterday in the Fleet prison.

A deplorable occurrence took place at Apt, in the
Vaucluse, a few days ago. Two old men, the one aged 80 and the
other 70, had quarrelled and resolved to fight a duel ! They went
without any seconds into a distant field, and, after a sharp contest with
fell mortally wounded. Some children who were
near ran to the town to give the alarm, and the survivor was soon after
arrested.

Green peas are now sold at from 6d. to 10d. per
peck. The supply in Covent-garden Market was unusually large. The
quality of the peas is said to better than that of any other crop for the
last ten years.
THE MURDER AT LAMBETH.--It will be recol•
lected that a pair of lavender-coloured kid gloves, marked on the in-
side S. K. T., were produced at Union-hall on the examination of
Hubbard. They were stated to have been found in Eliza Grimwood's
bed-rocm on the morning of the murder, and were supposed to have
been left behind by the stranger who accompanied the unfortunate
woman home from the Strand Theatre. The Magistrates, after the
close of the inquiry, instructed Inspector Field to make every
exertion to discover, if possible, the person to whom they be-
longed. The- Inspector, who has ever since been employed
on this duty, ascertained within the last few days that
Rest
identical gloves had been sent by a glover residing inthe
end of the metropolis to be cleaned at the shop of a person who is in the
habit of cleaning gloves for the manufacturers. The glover was im
mediately applied to. He stated in explanation that the gloves had
been left with him by a gentleman whom he named, and returned to him
cleaned some days previous to the 26th of May. The inspector next
proceeded in search of the gentleman alluded to, whose name, irs the
present stage of the matter, it is not thought advisable to make public,
who at once acknowledged that the gloves were his. He denied that he
knew Eliza Grimwood, or that he was ever in her house. Re owned,
however, that he knew a woman of her acquaintance, and that he accom-
panied this woman home to her lodgings, and left his gloves behind him
by tristake The policestill kept their eyes upon this individual, and
Inspector Field is engaged in seeking out the woman whom he has
named, in order that she may account for the manner in which the
gloves left her possession. Thus the case temains enveloped in as much
in mystery as ever. It is understood that the owner of the gloves is a re-
spectable tradesman, who does not in any way correspond with the de-
scription given of the individual with the 'Mackintosh cloak, who went
home with the ill-fated Grimwmd on the night of the murder. Hub-
bard is still in town, and states his intention to remain until the n; ureecer
is discovered, as in such case his (Hubbard's) evidence may be found
necessary.

It is an extraordinary circumstance, that the officers
commanding the cavalr, regiments who attended the coronation, were
all men of much eminence in their profession, and had served at Wet:T-
ic°, namely, Lietitenant.Colonel Wildman, K.H., commanding the sth
Dragoon Guards; Lieutenant. Colonel Chatterton, Kit., commanding
the 4th Royal Irish Dragoon Guards ; Lientenant.Colonel Stawell,
commanding the 12th (loyal Lancers ; Lieutenant. Colonel Vande'cnr,
commanding the 10th Hussars. These three :atter officers served in
the 12th Roy,l Lancers at Waterloo; then under the command of that
highly distinguished officer, General the Honourable Sir Frcderick
ronontiy.

should say that prices are Id. per lb. lower than those of last sale.
H9P MARKET.

The accounts vary from different parts, but all concur in a genial state

cautious in their purchases.
