MONSJEUR.

Soon after the,•restoration of the House of
Bouaßotv to the Throne of France, the Lord
Provost, Magistrates, and Council of Edinburgh
sent a Congratulatory Address to the Count
d'AitTois, Brother of the King, who was so long
a resident in Holyrood-ilouse, and who, by the
suavity of his manners, and the propriety of his
conduct, in the very depressing circumstances of
his situation, gained the'esteem of all ranks. The
following is. a translation of the answer, trans-
milted by the Duke of WELLINGTON, who pre-
sented the address, and -which has just been re-,
ceived ,

" AnSwer of Monsieur, Count d'Artois, and brother of the
King of France, to the Lad Provost, Magistrates, and.
Council of,tlie City of Edinburgh. ''-
. .
" Gentlemen,—l have received, with the most lively sen-
sibility, the very flattering and peculiarly agreeable expres-
sion of the sentiments which the Magistrates of the capital of
Scotland have the goodness to testify towards me, in their ad-
dress .of the 2d Mav, which has just been delivered to me by
the Minister of his 'Britannia Majesty.
" The restoration Af the King, my brother, to the throne of •
his ancestors, is assuredly the greatest blessing that Divine ,
Providence could bestow on 'our family, as- it gives us both
the privilege and the power of consecrating our lives to pro-
mote. -the happiness of our fellow-citizens, and of contribut-
ing,' at the same time,- to produce, throughout the• states of
Europe, and partienlarly• in Great Britain, the enjoyitient of
advantages attendant on a solid and, lasting peace. •
" Be assured, Gentlemen, that the years I passed at Edin-
burgh Shall never be efface&froui my remembrance, and that
I shall, through life, cherish the most pleasing recollection
of the proofs of real-interest and sincere affection which I
experienced from all ranks of society during my residence in
Scotland.

6' I request of you, Gentlemen, to express to your worthy
countrymen the lirely and justly merited gratitude which is
engraven on my heart i❑ indelible characters, and to accept,
for-yourselves, the personal assurance of my sentiments of
esteem and affection. -,t

THE THEATRE.—The CoMic Opera of The Wood-
4non, with the powerful recommendation of
~SHIELD'S beautiful music, drew a large audience
..lastonight to Covent-garden Theatre. Miss STE-
PHENS performed the part of Emily in a very in-
testing. manner, and sung delightfully. The
charming duet of " Too-ether let us range," was so
well sung by her and SINCLAIR, that it was en-
cored. A new song (we.believe) was substituted
for one, of the charming originals ; and if so, it
was taking a reprehensible liberty with the best
Composer of the'day. The new Ballet of Doctor
Sangrado received marks of disapprobation.
Mr. KEAN was announced to perform twice on
Tuesday at the Cheltenham Theatre. Shyloch at
12 o'clock in the day, and Hamlet in the evening.

the LORD MAYOR; the late Sheriffs, Aldermen,
the City Officers, and a most numerous' company,
at the Albion Tavern. -On the health of the.
Members for Liverpool being given, with which
place the new Sheriff (LEIGH) is connected, Ge-
neral OASCOIGN retutned thanks. ,The festivity
