like this, said BENJAMIN CONSTANT,and we are Ca-
puchins. Had the Ministry from the first attacked
the influence of this party, and not spared the
adherents of the former Administration, the re-
sult would have been different, as the KING ob-
served on Friday morning to the Ministers—
"llell, Gentlemen, we shall have bad elections
at Paris; you would spare the Centre, you see it
has not spared -you."—But all was not victory
on Friday for the Centre—the death of the Duke
de IticnELlEu was a terrible blow to it ; he was
its head, and, without being aware of it, its hope
and support. It is thought the Central party
will be broken up by his death, as it is well
known that M. LALNE was only retained at a
distance from the extreme right in the hope
of the Duke returning to power, which always
floated before his eyes. This chimera having
NatliSlit'd, every one will take his place according
to hiS opinions, and it is possible the left may
thus inherit two or three discontented Members,
with whom the right refuse to associate.

Aew York Papers arrived this morning to the
2d May, from which we extract the following:—

LFrorn the New York Gazette of the 30th April.]
The National Intelligencer states, that in the
course of the debate in the House of Represen-
tatives on the appropriation for carrying into
effect the article of the Treaty with Spain, it Was
stated by Mr. TUCKER of Virginia, from autho-
rity which he relied upon, that a Minister had
been appointed from Mexico to this country, who
might be expected to arrive in the 'United States
within three weeks.

[From the Norfolk Paper of the 28th April.]
FROM MONTE VIDEO.—We have contradic-
tory accounts relative to a serious inundation
which occurred in most of the Provinces, which
is said to have destroyed the crops of grain.—We
Should be glad to give some authentic on the
above subject.

he Bill for granting 50,0001. for the employ-
ment of the poor in Ireland was last night read a
third time in the House of Lords and passed.—
'rhough it was observed that this-sum is not more
than a shilling per head for the vast numbers who
are destitute of employment and subsistence, and
though we agree in the opinion that it is by no
means sufficient for effecting the purpose intended,
Yet it must be considered that when 50,0001. is
extraordinarily thrown into circulation through
the medium of wages paid to the labouring classes,
its effects do not cease with the first pay-
n'eLlt to the workmen, nor with the first
transfer which these again make of the
amount of wages received by them to the
dealers in the necessaries of life. It does not

In to be well understood that every time any
given sum of money changes hands, it acts anew

case
fi `1"-ov

nearly the whole of that sum, for labour;
the
labourers will pay it over to the farmers

rePay it to their farm labourers, and thus its
tivrculation from hand to hand gives it a reproduc-

AMERICAN INTERCOURSE.— The proceedings in
Congress shew the spirit and feeling of the people
of the United States against this country, and the
recommendation to prohibit the importation of fo-
reign spirits into the United States places those
Members of the British Government who are the
Advocates of throwing open our Colonial Trade
to American Shipping in rather an unenviable po-
sition, and convinces us that before the PRESENT
Bills had been introduced into Parliament, they
should have afforded opportunities to the British
North American Colonists and the Shipping In-
terest to be heard against them.

WEST INDIA. INTERCOURSE.-11l our remarks
on this subject yesterday there was an error of
the press, and the last paragraph should have
kern—'G which will spew the competency of
" British North America to supply, WITH the
" Mother Country, at cheap rates, in British
44 Shipping, all the articles required by the West
44 India Planters."

A Meeting took place yesterday at the Crown
and Anchor Tavern, for the pUrpose of cele-
brating " the Fifteenth Anniversary of the
Triumph of IVestminster and Purity of Election,"
meaning the election of Sir FRANCIS BuItDETT, as
one of the representatives of that city. We
believe that the public are too well acquainted
with the nature of that " purity," in the se-
veral elections of the Honourable Baronet, to
need any comment from us upon the occasion.—
Among the company were—Lord Ebrington, Lord Nugent,
Sir R. Fergusson, the Honourable G. Bennet, Sir R. Wilson, J.
Hume, Esq., Sir M. Barrett, Colonel Johnson, Dr. Lushing-
ton, D. Ricardo, Esq., P. Moore, Esq., Sir G. Robinson,-
Hon. C. Hutchinson, J. B. Monck, Esq., Hon. 1). Kinnaird,
Alderman Wood, &c. &c.
As soon as the cloth was removed,
The CHAIRMAN gave " The People—the only source of
Legitimate Power ;" which was drunk with applause. Air,
" Britons strike home."
The CHAIRMAN next gave—" The King, and may he re-
collect his own declaration, that the Crown is held in trust for
the benefit of the People." Air—" Rule Britannia."
The next toast was—" The only remedy for our national
grievances—a full, fair, and free Representation of the People
in the Commons' House of Parliament." Air—." Kick the
Rogues out."
Mr. STURCH then addressed the company on
the usual topics introduced on such occasions,
paying compliments to Sir FRANCIS, and propos-
ing his health. The Baronet of course thanked
the company, and in the progress of his speech
adverted "to the alleged corruption in the House
of Commons. He said

" The late Speaker of the house of Commons, then Mr.
Abbott, pretended at least to be greatly shocked at discovering
a traffic in seats in the House, though no man was probably
more intimately acquainted with the Practice; but now all was
changed, and no one seemed to be startled at such conduct."
Such was the liberal delicacy of the Baronet
with respect to a character, who is now an orna-
ment to the Peerage, and an honour to the
Country. The Baronet in reference to Mr. CAN-
NING'S speech at the recent Literary Fund Din-
ner, who mentioned COMA CHATEAUBRIAND as the
person who had essentially contributed to revive
Monarchical principles and Christian virtue, said
"it appeared to him that there were no two
things so inconsistent with each other as the
monarchical and the christian principle." In
fact, it might be supposed, if his speech is truly
reported, that his aim was to bring monarchy
into contempt ; for styling HoRNE TooKEas " a
great, able and honest man whom the Electors of
Westminster and the Freemen of England should
never forget," he quoted his words, which were
" Monarchy we abhor but Kingship we admit."
The Baronet did not attempt. to explain this
paradox, but proceeded to give his own
opinion that " undoubtedly the Constitution of
England was no Monarchy. What was the prin-
ciple of Monarchy ? In the, language of the
Poet it was that which

" taught to realms undone,
The monstrous faith of many made for one."
Such was not the principle of the English Constitution, much
less was it the principle of Christianity. The principle of
Christianity was opposed to the pride of illonarchy,by its humi-
lity and all its other characteristics. The great teacher of Chris-
tianity sacrificed himself for the good of mankind, but when
were monarchical doctrines ever known to inculcate the virtue
of personal sacrifices for the benefit of the community ? No-
thing, therefore, appeared more absurd than to assimilate the
principle of monarchy to that of Christianity, and of the Eng-
lish Constitution.

These sentiments appeared to be very accept-
able ; and after observing that the Baronet
deplored the imprisonment of Mr. Hunt, and
spoke highly in his favour, we trust that
we have given a sufficient sample of the com-
plexion of the Meeting, and need not re-
cord the speeches of Mr. llobhouse, Lord
EBRINGTON, Mr. RICARDO, who all seemed to
act upon the old principle of—" Do you tickle
me, and I will scratch you"—for they highly
eulogized the eloquence of each other, and it
must be confessed that, with a very few ex-
ceptions, the orators in general seemed to be
equally entitled to the praise of elognence.—
Messrs. LAMBTON, WHITBREAD and LEFEVRE,
are said to have been prevented from attend-
ing, by the alarming illness of the Dowager
Countess GREY, their relation, and Lord JOHN
RUSSELL, by indisposition.

BRIGHTON, MAY 22.
A. London Paper, of yesterday, tells us that the
KING is on the eve of returning to the Pavillion ; and
the cause, a succession of splendid entertainments to be given
there, to the Prince and Princess of PENIVIARK. Upon
this statement we must observe, that not an iota of what has
been alluded to is known at the Palace here. The work of
general improvement, as we have before observed, there
goes on, for the completion or suspension of which, at any given
time, not an order, neither directly nor indirectly has been re-
ceived, nor, from present communications, is any such order
anticipated. A this time, the whole of the carpets of the grand
suite of rooms are away ; the ifurnicrure generally is covered
up, and artists and workmen are leisurely employed in the se-
veral apartments. It would give us pleasure, very much plea-
sure, to report otherwise; and therefore it may be rationally con-
cluded that we shall take the earliest opportunity of doing so_
but our reports must, as they always have been, invariably be
guided by truth--to " lie like truth," not making any part of
our avocation.

His Excellency the Marquis WELLESLEY, With
his characteristic munificence, has subscribed five
hundred pounds to the fund for the relief of the
poor in Munster and Connaught.

DENMARK TO THE KING.

, Yesterday being the day appointed for the in-
troduction of the Prince and Princess of DEN-
MARK to his MAJ ESTY, a Grand Entertainment
was given at the KING'S Palace on the occasion.
A Guard of Honour, composed of the Grenadier Guards,
marched into the Palace-yard at half-past six o'clock, preceded
by the Band of the First Regiment of Foot Guards.
The Duke of YORK and the Princess AUGUSTA arrived soon
after, the band playing " God save the King."
The Prince and Princess of DENMARK arrived at half-past
six, with their4Gentleman and Lady in Waiting, and others of
their suite, in two carriages. Their Royal Highnesses were
reuived by, a party of the Yeoman Guard, who lined the
grand hall, the Tiatid playing " God save the King." The
Gentlemen Porters and the Pages appeared in their Corona-
tion uniforms.

Lord ST. HELENS, the Lord in Waiting, con-
ducted their Royal Highnesses into the Royal
Closet, where his MAJESTY was ready to re-
ceive them, accompanied by the Duke of YORK
and Princess AUGUSTA. After their gracious re-
ception the KING conducted them to the Royal
Banquet, prepared in the State Drawing-room,
where there were present besides :
The Prince and Princess Esterhazy, Baron Fagel, the Ne-
therlands Ambassador, Count. and Countess Lieven, Mon-
sieur de Chateaubriand, the French Ambassador, Count and
Countess Munster, the Danish Minister, Monsieur de Molleto,
and several other Foreign Ambassadors and Ministers. The
Marquis of Londonderry, the Secretary of State for Foreign
Affairs, and his Marchioness, Earl Bathurst, Secretary of
State for the Colonial Department, and his Countess, Earl of
Liverpool, and several other Cabinet Ministers, and their La-
dies, the Great Officers of State, and their Ladies.
Mier the dinner party, the KING had a
splendid evening party, which did not break up
till a late hour.

DEAL, MAY 22.
Their Royal Highnesses the Duke and Duchess
of CLARENCE are now on a visit at Walmer
Castle, for the benefit of her Royal Highness's
health.

Nothing could exceed the demonstrations of joy and satis-
faction shewn by all classes of people on their arrival in this
neighbourhood ; and on Monday, the Mayor and Corporation
of Deal had the honour of paying their respects to their Royal
Highnesses. They were introduced by Sir EDWARD OWE
and were most graciously received.
The following are the answers of their Royal
Highnesses to the loyal and affectionate Addresses
which were presented to them on the occasion:—

REPLY OF HIS ROYAL HIGHNESS.
" GEN T ME N-i receive with great pleasure your assur-
ances of dutiful and loyal attachment to the King, and of af-
fectionate regard for his Majesty's family. I feel most sen-
sibly your attentions towards myself, and return you my sin-
cere thanks for your anxious wishes respecting the health of
the Duchess. I shall ever be interested in the welfare of the
town of Deal, so nearly connected with the naval interests of
t'ais empire."

REPLY OF HEIL ROYAL HIGHNESS.
"GENTLEMEN—I thank you for your congratulations on my
safe arrival at this place, and do assure you I have returned
here with peculiar satisfaction, recollecting the handsome
manner in which I was received by the inhabitants of this
Borough on my first landing in this country. I shall ever he
anxious for the prosperity of the town of Deal, and am sin-
cerely grateful for your kind wishes respecting my future health
and welfare."

ALMACK'S.—The Ball given at these elegant rooms on
Wednesday evening was more brilliant than any preceding one
this season. Dancing commenced at eleven o'clock, and did
not break up till past four yesterday morning. There were
present upwards of 400 persons of the first rank, distinction, arid I
fashion.

HANOVER SQUARE.-The annual Concert of
Mr. W. KNYVETT took place in these rooms List
night, and, as usual, was attended by a splended
and numerous audience. The selection, vocal
and instrumental, was excellent, and such as
might be expected from his talents, judgment
and experience. The orchestra was well sup-
plied with first-rate Performers, led by Mr. F.
CRAMER, one of the most able Performers of the
day. The vocal corps
,was supported by Messrs.
VAUGHAN, W. KNYVETT, BELLAMY, lIAWES, J.
B. SALE, and Master SMITH, Mrs. SALMON, Miss
STEPHENS, Miss TRAVIS, and Madame CAMPORESE.
We never heard LINDLEY with more pleasure than
his accompaniment to "Gentle airs" afforded, and it
was sung with beautiful simplicity by VAUGHAN.
The Glee " 0 can ye se .v cushions," newly har-
monized by Mr. W. KNYVETT, was so well sup-
ported by himself, VAUGHAN, SALE, and Miss
STEPHENS, that it was encored. BO CHSA gave a
Fantasia on the harp with admirable skill, and
Mr. J. CRAMER delighted the audience with his
taste and extraordinary execution on the piano-
forte. The first act concluded with the Anthem
composed expressly for the Coronation of his pre-
sent MAJESTY, by Mr. W. KNT VETT. It is a grand
and impressive composition, highly creditable to
his science, taste and feelings. 'We have not room
to dilate on the merits of the second act, which
was supported by the same vocal performers, and
which concluded with a scene from Israel in Egypt,
" The Lord shall reign for ever and ever," in
which Miss STEPHENS gave with great beauty
and force "The Horse and his Rider," and the
company were detained by the general excellence
of the night to the conclusion of the concert.

BELzoNx, the traleller, has had the honour of
being presented to the Emperor of RUSSIA in a private au-
dience. His Majesty conversed a considerable time with him
upon his extensive travels,
