WEDNESDAY, APUIL 1, 1812.

French Papers were received last night to the
22a ult. We have made some extras from them.
These papers are silent upon the two great points
upon which our feelings are so deeply'interested—
the War in -the Peninsula, and the State of the
North. BUONAPARTE still remains at Paris, and
some of the private accounts which have been re-
ceived state confidently, that the Emperor of Russia
has been alarmed at the immense force which
BUONAPARTE has colleted, and that he will concede
every thing that is required, rather than run the
risk of a combat. .The force assembled by BUONA.
PARTE, in the North, is stated to amount to be-
tween five and 69/0,006 men. The exaggeration of
this statement,' is too ridiculous to. deserve notice ;
but, as we observed yesterday, the people of France
and its vassal States have really no means of ascer-
taining the truth or fafsehood of any statement which
the Government may choose to, make, and there-
fore -very little reliance indeed should be placed upon
the authority of private letters from the Continent.
-The disturbances in France, to which we alluded
yesterday,, still continue:` a considerable body of
troops have been marched to Rouen, to suppress an
insurrection of the inhabitants, in consequence of •
the high price of provisionS.

Yesterday, at twelve o'clock, the QUEEN, Thin-
ceises ELIZABETH and MARY, attended by Lady
ISABELLA THYNNE, arrived in a carri ge and four,
escorted by a party of the I,3th Regiment of Light
Horse, at the Queen's Palace, from Windsor,
where they were received by the Dukes of CUMBER-
LAND, SUSSEX, and CAMBRIDGE, and Miss GOLDS-
WORTHY. The QUERN and PRINCESSES dressed at
the Palace. About two o'clock the PRINCE RE.
GENT'S carriage, with the coachman and four foot-
men, in their state liveries, arrived at.the Palace,
and conveyed the QUEEN and PRINCESSES to Carl-
ton House, where they were received by his Royal
Highness the PRINCE REGENT, attended by Cols.
M‘MAtioN and BLOOMFIELD. The PRINCE con-'
duEled
.his Royal Mother and Sisters over his ele-
gant mansion. A few minutes after four o'clock
the Royal Party sat down to a sun-onntic dinner,
together with the Dukes of YORK, CUMBERLAND,
and CAMBRIDGE, and the Princess CHARLOTTE Of
WALES. The QUEEN was attended by the Mar-
chioness of BATH and the Princess CHARLOTTE of
WALES. At six o'clock, coffee was served up;
and at half-past_s:x, the QUEEN and PRINCESSei
left Carlton House, on their return to. Windsor.
The PRINCE REGENT conduaed the QUEEN to her
carriage, the Duke of YORK the Princess ELIZA-
BETH, the Duke of CUMBERLAND the Princess
MAity, and the Princess CHARLOTTE of WALES
by the Duke of CAMBRIDGE. The Princess CHAR-
LOTTE left Carlton House at the same time as the
QUEEN. and returned to Warwick House.

Earl WINCIIELSEA left Windsor on Monday.
Yesterday morning ihe Archbishop of CANTER-
BURY left Windsor:-,r Kingston.
. Lord JOCELYN left town, on Friday morning,
for Ireland, in order to be returned again for
Louth, having vacated his seat in Parliament, by
accepting the place of Comptroller of the House-
hold.

A Cabinet Council was held yesterday afternoon,
at the Foreign Office, in Downing-street : it sat
nearly two hours.
Lord MeLviLt.c will bold his first Levee for Na-
val officers at the Admiralty, at 12 o'clock to-morrow.
The debate of Thursday night, on the " Gold
Coin Bill," has cv.napletely unmasked the real dispo-
sition of the Party towards Ireland, and demon-
strated what the people are to expea, should tkese
Patriots force themselves into office.
The Minister contended that Leland should be
included in the measute, and part?cipate its benefi-
cial effeas, by the protection of the tenantry against
the caprice at the violence of landlords. This pro-
position would place the two kingdoms on ground
of perfect equality, and, as between landlord and
tenant, would bc just and equitable, as well as
highly advantageous to both patties. But what said
the Opposition ?

They insisted on the stria performance of COB-
tra6ts, by which, it seems, the peasantry, or a large
portion of them, are bound to pay rent in gold coin
or guineas; and in order to skew its practicability,
the Leader• of the Party informed the House, that,
to his own knowledge, guineas may be pureliase(l at
a premium or from 53. 6d. to 6i. each, and that they
were thus bought and sold as openly as broad cloth,
or any other commodity
THE ARTB.—Sir ROBERT KERR PORTER, whose
extraordinary talents as an artist have been so justly
adMired, intended to make a series of portraits of
the Monarchs of this country, from the Norman
conquest. They were to be small whole lengths, in
water-colours. He had made several of these por-
traits before he quitted England on his matrimonial
expedition, which has probably put an end to the
design, a circumstance much to be regretted by the
admirers of the Fine Arts, as what lie had done are
exquisitely beautiful, and a►e enriched by some ap--
propriate allusion in the back-ground of each to
events in the respeaive reigns, or to. the character
sad conduct of the respective Sovereigns.
