It is certain that EiJOSTAI'ARTE was earnest in
hii desire to be permitt'cd'tp chuse an asylum iii
.•..- ,
Englantl. What a tribute to the national charac..

ter, that even the guilty thind of,its dii.ectenerity,
conscious of midnight blodd and secret assaisina-
tion, should deem Britain to be that Spot iii the
world 'where the laws afforded the surest protec-
tion not only to the fallen; but to the 'criminal !
to the criminal whose offencei were committed
out of theii• jurisdiction, and who is, of -course,
not amenable .to their tribunal. It should seem;

however, that at present there will be no altera
tion in the destination of this extraordinary per,

son

" Lord WELLINGTON, I am sorry to learn, will
not be able to visit Paris, as was intended, -and
much Wished for by all racks and nations here
as-
sembled. Thek'rench appear to lament, this dis-
appointment mou than the British. ALEXANDER
and WELLINGTON are the Heroes of Paris ; . and
having gratified.thernselves with the sight of the
former, the novelty of the Liberator Of the Penin-
sula was most 'anxiously demanded. The reason
of his Lordship's not coming is, his being in the
service of Spain as %veil as of England, As Gene-
ralissimo of the Armies of FERDINAND VII. it is
his duty to meet the King at Madrid.

After this,

the expectation is indulged of his still visiting this
city; but I am not aware of the grounds on which
this hope is built.

" The Emperor ALEXANDER, who is really
idolized here, will not depart for London for a
week or ten clays after the arrival of the King of
FRANCE. I have seen hint repeatedly—he is a
fine, intelligent, graceful, and noble-looking maa.
" Grand preparations are making for the recep-
tion of Louts XVIII. whose.public entrance will,
I believe, take place on Monday.
,A suite of Of-
ficers, servants, and carriages, &c. set off yes-
terday for Compeigne, for the use of his Majesty.
Fire-works are to be displayed from all the bridges.
Statues and triumphal arches are everywhere
erecting. Paintings and ttansparencics
innunte-
rable. are already exhibited ;, and the White Cock-
ade becorning universal as a part of dress.-- •
You bave, of course, heard of the conclusion
of a General Armistice in Italy. A Russian .Ge-
neral (MIT-AN or, MUTAN) set out this' day for
that country, on .a special Mission. He was ac-.
couipanied by several Aides-de-Camp, and by Mr.
HUNTER, the British, Messenger. Speculation
ascribes his journey to some new arrangements
respecting BUONAPARTE ; but it May probably
refer to the disposition of EUGENE BEAUHARNOIS.

" Col. LOWE arrived at Lord CAStLEREAG/I'S
this morning, with dispatches from England.
" There has been within these few days a great
influx of British travellers, merchants, &c. At
present, however, it is difficult to procure horses
np from the coast."

Yesterday his Rq,ynl Highness the PRINCE Rs-
GENT walked in Pall-Mall, and appeared in ex-
cellent health and spirits. His Royal Highness
was dressed in a plain -brown coat, and was arm
in arm with his Royal- Brothers, the Dukes of
YORK and CLARENCE. They proceeded to the
British Institution,. where they were received by
the Marquis of STAFFORD, the Deputy President,
the Earls of LONSDALE, MULGEAVE; and DARN-
LEY, Lord DOUGLAS, the Right Hon. OnAruss
LONG, Directors and Governors of the Institu-
tion, ‘vho conducted thempver the Gallery. At
three o'clock, the Duke of GLOUCESTER, accom-
panied by his sister the'Princess SOPHIA, attend-
ed; and at five the Princess CHARLOTTE, accour-
panied by the D,uchess of LEEDS and Miss limo HT.,
attended. • -

Several carriages arrived yesterday morning at
the- office of the Foreign Department in Downing-
street, with a number of persons in Turkish cos-
tume, underitood to be Members of an Embassy
from the OTTOMAN PORTE; We understand they
were accompanied‘by an interpreter, and by one
of. the Under Secretaries of the British Embassy
at Constipainople.
The'Emperor of AUSTRIA has conferred the ho-
nour of a Knight Commander of the distinguished
Military Order of Maria Theresa on Admiral Fa EE-
MANTLE, for his active and successful services in
the Adriatic. This is the first and only instance
of the,rank of Commander of this Order having
been conferred on a British Admiral.
The Rose, Apollo, Diana, Lord Eldon, North-
ampton, and Carmarthen East Indiamen, and the
Perseverance, Phiomix, Anti,. and Venus .whalers,
have arrived Of Falmouth from India, last from
St. Helena.

TT FIE THEATRE.—The Opera of. Lionel and Cla-
rissa .was: revived at Covent-Garden Thetiti'e laSt
night.. Miss STEPHENS fully confirmed-her repu-
tation as a very interesting actress, as wet! as ad-
'mi'rable singer, byber performanCe of CiarLssa.-.--
SINCLAIR improves in acting ; hitt he flourirbed
boo much in the airs of Lionel.—FAivcETT's Cq/o-
netpldboY, and LISToN's Jessarny, a(illed humour
and variety to the piece, which was very well re-
ceived. We strongly condemn.the practice of al-
tering interpolating an establiShed Opera, by
the substitution, or addition, of compoitions not
belonging to the original drama.

CORINT-EXCI“NGE, MAY 4.—We had but few
arrivals of Grain this morning. There were some
ForeigU Oats,, which -sold on full as good terms as
on Monday. The sales. in Wheat were at Mon-
day's prices. Barley supports its price. Other
kinds of Grain remain at the last quotation.
