finished on each side by blond. The bust is finished by a
to nacher, exactly corresponding with the front of the skirt,
except, that as the tablier widens atthe bottom, the bust orna-

- „
• The Duke of CAmcoinGE, his DUCileFs child
and suite, are expected to arrive from Hanover ,at St. James's
Palace on
.Friday ;., the Duke of Cumberland's apartments
in the Palace have been prepared for the reception of his
Royal Highness's family and attendants. The most ex-
tensive preparations have been made in those apartments.

his lilajesty at Windot. The King, it is 'at present calculated,
will return to Carlton Palace on Wednesday next, for the pur-
pose of holding the Drawing-room, at St. James's Palace on

reorn taking place); and on that day the Duchess of Cambridge
will pay her respects to his Majesty on her return, to England,
and will afterwards dine with his Majesty, with a party invited

THE LATE GEORGE CHALMERS, ESQ.—It may
be fairly said that Government have lost a zea-
lous, intelligent, and most usefttl servant in this
Gentleman. He was always alive to the interests
of the country, and suffered no subject of na-
tional importance to pass without due observa-
tion, and the full exertion of his endeavours to
render it intelligible to the world at large. Com-
merce, Manufactures, the Bullion Question, &c..
Icc., were rendered easy of comprehension by
his clear and strenuous elucidations. lie seemed'
indeed to have been born with an indefatigable
zeal for the interests of mankind, hut, of course,'
more particularly for those of the British Em-
pire. He passed much of the earlier part of life
in Atherica, and was thoroughly conversant with
those principles which were best calctilated to
promote the interest of that country, and to se-
fure harmony between -it and the parent state,:
His disposition Was social and cheerful, but his
mind was alWays vigilantly directed towards
• the advantage of the community. His political.
principles were soundly constitutional. - When
the specious, alluring, but destructive, doctrines.
of THOMAS PAINE, were gradually undermining
every sentiment of loyalty among the middle and
lower ranks of society, he came resolutely for-
ward, and addressed a letter, under his own
name, to Dr. CualtlE, which excited great atten-
tion at the time, and he also published a life of
that bold, insidioug, and baleful Apostle of DE-
MOCRACY, PAINE, under the assumed name of
OLnys, a name well known to the Literati of
this country. Scotland, of which he was a native,
•has lost a great and active friend in Mr. CHAL-
M ERS, as ..he was anxious to do honour to her ()n
ail occasions. His Caledonia, of which three,
large quarto volumes have been published, con-
tains the most valuable information respecting'
that country; and a fourth, which was nearlf
ready for the Press, would have completed that
extraordinary proof of elaborate research and
mitigable ardour in pursuit of knowledge. He.hid'
prepared materials for a Life of his countryman
TnomsoN the Poet, which would have contained
much novel and interesting information respecting
the History of the Author of those SEASONS which
will live as long as the EARTH. Mr. CHA
in person, was tall, stout, and manly, so nearly
resembling the late Lord-MELVILLE, that they
were often taken for each other. The writer, of
this humble tribute to his memory had the.
sure of passing a few hours with hitiLa very few
days before his death, .and never found ldm in
better spirits, or more likely, for a long ttrac,
notwithstanding his advanced age,- to spare his
friends the regret of losing so valuable.a.mernbei
of society.
