MISCELLANEOUS.

THEKING.--(Windsor, June c29.)—This morn-
ing his MAJESTY went to Cumberlaud Lodge, to
hear divine service, which was performed by the
Rev. Mr. Sumner, in the private chapel of that
once magnificent mansion. His Majesty went in
a close carriage, drawn by a pair of horses ; in
the carriage with his Alajesty were the Lord
Steward, Lord Albert Conyngham, and Sir
Samuel llulse.—Soon after divine service Sir
Samuel llulse took leave of his Majesty, and left
the Royal Lodge for London.

On Saturday at three o'clock a Cabinet Coun-
cil was held at the Foreign Office, which was
attended by the 'Lord Chancellor, the Earl of
Liverpool, the Earl of Harrowby, the Earl of
Westmorland, Mr. Secretary Peel, Mr. Secretary
Canning, the Earl Bathurst, the Chancellor of
the Exchequer, Lord Maryborough, Mr. Wynn,
Viscount Sidmouth, &c. The Cabinet sat in de-
liberation till a quarter before five.
Saturday at one o'clock the Lords of the
Council assembled at the Council Office, which
was attended by nearly the same numerous as-
semblage of their Lordships who were present
the two preceding Saturdays to hear the Appeal
of Lord DouGLAs against the Duke of HAMIL-
TON, respecting the honour and privilege of car-
rying the King's Crown by virtue of the title of
Earl of ANGUS. Their Lordships continued in
deliberation till three, when they separated, in
consequence of those who are Members of the
Cabinet being summoned to attend a Cabinet
Council at the Foreign Office.
Yesterday morning the Dukes of YORK and
CUMBERLAND attended divine service at the
Chapel Royal, in the King's Palace, St. James's,
and heard a sermon by the Rev. Mr. SATTERTH-
WAITE. The anthem was, " I have set God al-
ways before me"—(BLAKE) ; which was sung
by Messrs. Knivett; Nield, Welsh, and two of
the young gentlemen.
Yesterday Prince Lrovorm attended divine
' service at St. Philip's Chapel, Waterloo-place.
1 The Monileur contains intelligence•of the safe
arrival at Bordeaux of the French East India
ship the Penelope, on which insurances have
been effected at LLOYD'S to the. amount of
100,0001.
Letters were received yesterday from Oporto,
dated the sth inst., from which it appears. that
intelligence having arrived there of the late pro-
ceedings in Lisbon, a similar scene took place
in
Oporto, and the constitutional authOrities were
removed from office. The inhabitants were. even
carried so far in their zeal as to illuminate .their
houses, -and to exhibit decorations in honour of
the " absolute King."
GIBRALTAR, MAY 23.--The Algesiras priva-
teers have detained and carried into that port a
Gibraltar Mistico returning from Sake with a
quantity of spice, and a Portuguese craft, from
Portugal also, with money for this place, but it. is
expected they will be released. They have like-
wise detained and taken into that port this day
a Danish ketch and Hanoverian galliot, both from
the East.
We have received a letter from an Officer,
dated Callao, Feb. 23, which says—" I take it for granted
that you will have received my dispatch by his. Majesty's
ship ~Alacrity—(the Alacrity has not arrived)—giving an ac-
count of the attack and total defeat of the Peruvian forces
under General Alvarada, on the 21st January, by the Spanish
forces, under Generals Camara and Valdez. The Peruvians
lost every thing, even to the muskets they had in their
hands, so anxious were they to run. The object of this letter is
to say, that they have been again attacked and defeated at a
small sea port, named Iquique, which place is in lat. 24). 13. S.,
long. 73. 30. W. ; it is a small seaport, near the mines of Santa
Rosa. The Peruvians were defeated with the loss of 100 men,
and were compelled to embark ; they arrived here to-day.
The Government are at their wits end ; they have taken by
force all the horses and slaves they can get hold of ; the
one to mount the cayslry, the other to serve in the army.—
We understand here that Chili is in great confusion. You
of course know that Lord Cochrane has left them. In
short, there never was, or can be, a more happy opportu-
nity for Spain to exert itself than now, and were they only
to send out three or four frigates, and even 2,000 men,
they would re-conquer these provinces in three months. At
present their naval forces are very small indeed, and, what is
still worse, the Government have nut one dollar in their Trea-
sury ; a small piece of copper, not so large as a halfpenny,
goes for one quarter of a dollar. His Majesty's ship, Aurora,
Captain Prescott, is lying here."—( Portsmouth Paper.)

We can state, from highly respectable and en-
questionable authority, that information has been given, on
which important discoveries have been made, within those few
days past, in .the neighbourhood of Castletownroche,
ing subjects of a most serious nature—and which, we 'under-
stand, has led to the apprehension of many in that quarter, and
caused the flight of others; among both may be counted perpetra-
tors of former outrage, and plotters of future. Arms have also
been taken, and more is expected to be taken, from those de.;
luded miscreants—or given up by such as the dread of their
si-
tuation may render it advisable to return as soon as possible to
the ways of peace, and make some attonement for former
transgressions. Many days will not elapse befgre we shall be
enabled to give the particulars—at present we do not consider it
prudent, for many reasons, to say inore.—( Cork Constitution,
June 25.)
We understand that in consequence of some
arrests, which took place near filanworth and C,astletown-
roche, last week, many opulent farmers in that neighbourhood
have abcfonded. The persons apprehended are supposed to
be a Committee of. the Insurgents, and were taken up in
consequence of some private informations given to the
mutates in that neighbourhood. These Magistrates sat in Petty
Sessions on Monday, for the purpose of investigating the tran-
saction, the result of which we have not yet heard.—(Cork Ad-
vertiser,June 26.)
IRISH KNlGllTS.—Pursuant to a Royal Man-
date, the Judges assembled on Tuesday evening
last, at the House of the Lord Chief Justice DA r.-
LAS, in Bloomsbury-square, to determine the ques-
tion of the Lord Lieutenant's right to makelinights,
which has for some time hung suspended between
the opinion of the Attorney and Solicitor Ge-
neral of England, and that of the Attorney and
Solicitor General of Ireland. The Chief Justice
Dallas (though in his own house) and Mr. Justice
Richardson, were unable to attend through illness,
but the other Judges (unanimously, we believe)
decided in favour of the opinion given by the
Attorney and Solicitor General of the Sister
Kingdom, thereby establishing •the right of the
Lord Lieutenant to the privilege in question, and
which we believe has been exercised without
dispute for more than 500 years.—(Times.)
HERTFORD ELECTION.—On Thursday last the
Election took place of a Member for this Bo-

Mos. Somili WILLI A ms.,—.This Lady, whose
death we announced on Saturday laat, was the daughter of
the celebrated Mrs. ConzstLY s, who once held so distin.
guished a station in the *regions of fashion. Her mansion
was called Carlisle House, in Soho-square. The premises
were very extensive, and • reached to what is now called
Crown-street. The rooms in thit capaciotts mansion were
numerous, and were all laid out with great taste.--The
fashionable world in general warmly patronized Mrs. Cor.
nelye, and Concerts, Balls, and Masquerades, enabled her
to live in a very splendid style. She kept carriages, and
had a villa at Hammersmith. At length, however,
the Iste Mr. James Wyatt erected that beautiful and daft-
sicul mansion, the Pantheon, in Oxtbrd-roati, and the tide
of fashion turned in its favour. Unluckily about this period
Mrs. • Comely* attempted to introduce the performance of
Italian Operas at Carlisle House. The King's Theatre
was then under the superintentiance of the Honourable
Mr. Hobart, afterwards Earl of Buckinghamshire; he
applied to Sir John Fielding, who • took Guiulagni, the
chief Singer at Carlisle-house, into custody, and soon put an
end to Mrs. Cornelys's Italian speculation. The elegance of
the Pantheon, and the influence of Mr. Hobart, resent-
ing the attempt to injure his interest in the Opere-house, with.
drew the fashionable world from Mrs. Cornelys ; her fall
naturally followed, and she was obliged to take refuge in the rules
of the Fleet prison. Iler son and daughter, who had received,,
all the accomplishments suitable to the fortune which their
mother was expected to acquire, were then obliged to resort for '
support to the exercise of their talents. They both changed
their names. The son became tutor to the present Earl of
Pomfret. He was an amiable and accomplished man. He has
been dead many years, and his memory is respected by his noble
pupil. The, daughter after her mother's fall assmned the name
of Williarni, and she retained it till her death, which recently
occurred. Under the name of Miss Williams, tih-e was warmly
countenanced by the family of the present Earl of Harrington,
in his juvenile days, and also by the family of Mr. Charles
Butler, so well-known and esteemed in legal circles. She af.
terwards acted as Governess in several noble families, among
whom were Lords Newhaven, Dormer, &c. At length she
became companion to old Lady Cowper, who on her death
bequeathed her 1001. a year. In due time she obtained the
patronage of the late Queen Charlotte and of the present Prin-
cess Augusta, to whom she acted as a private alinonress, point-
ing out proper objects for Royal benevolenceand being the means
of-conveying it. She established an Institution for unprotected
adult females and another for the education of poor children, and
acquired particular influence over her .Royal Patronesses, par-
ticularly the Princess Augusta, whose tuninble character is
adored wherever it is known. Miss Cornelys, or Miss W'il.
Hams, was formerly a rigid Roman Catholic, but it is said that
she conformed to the Established Church a few years ago.
Nobody understood the world better, or could better adapt
themselves to its weaknesses, passions, and follies. Iter Man-
ners were mild and submissive. She possessed great musical
talents in early life, sung with expression, and accompanied
herself skilfully on the harp. She was low in stature, and by
no means beautiful in features. She must have reached her
iteventy-fourth.Year, when fate put a period to her eventful and
variegated life.—ller mother died in great distress, if not
actually in the Fleet Prison, as reported.

The Marquis of BATH, It 111 Said, is to have
the blue riband, vacant by the death of the Mar-
quis of SALMI/UT. _ _ _

On Tuesday last a Meeting was held at Cupar
of a number of Gentleman friendly to the Con-
stitutional Spaniards. A Subscription was re-
solved upon.
