, REDITARY yPRINcE OF PARMA, PLACENTIA,
GUASTALLA, &C.
TUE _new ties by Which the Royal- House of
liourbon is on the_ point of .being,..mbre closely
united, claim our participation -in- the joy,*hich
that happy event occasions, and which our. Augtjst
Father-in-Law and Uncle, the Catholic King,' will
celebrate, in his city of. Barcelona, with a pomp
suitable to the marriages of the Infants of the King
of .Spain and the King' of the Two Sicilies. The
pleasitre which, our heart will experience upon so
happy an event, will not make us lose sight of the
chief care of Advancing, under all Circunutances,
and of consolidating- as much_ as possible, the pro-
sperity of our well-beloved people, who are the
firsi...objeft of our paternal solicitude. And in order
that, during our absence, the public aftirs may
suffer no delay', we have conferred upon OCtr present
Council of State, Finance, and War,- all the powers
we have deemed necessary, to govern the kingdom,
and to maintain order and justicein all the branches
of the political, civil, and economical administra-
tion.. The eagerness we shall evince in returning
to the bosom of -our dear .subjeas, gives us reason
to hope that" in answering, that mildness which "
charaderises the nation, and that fidelity which
they have always shewn for their Sovereigns, they
will give us, on-our return, new motives of -satis-
fadion and zeal to contribute more and more to the
public felicity, by all the means which Providence'
has placed in our hands. •

Worcester great fair, on Monday last, was most
abundantly supplied with cattle, sheep, pigs, and
cheese ; there was a greater number of sheep than
ever remembered, which, together with the cattle
and pigs, experienced a reduclion in price. Cheese
also declined considerably ; best making sold on
Monday from 635. to 731_ 6d, and two_meal from
cos. to 6os. per cwt. bur yesterday theformer brought
only from 555. to dos. and the latter from 4os. to
sos. and much was at last taken away unsold. Horses
were unusually numerous, and good ones fetched
high prices. Of the various commodities -brought
to this annual mart, hops alone were deficient in
quantity, which is accounted for by the failure of this
year's crop ; instead of the thousands. of pockets we
have frequently witnessed,,36s only were weighed,'
in which number were three pockets of new hops ;
thesewere sold from r 11. to iti. per cwt. and the
yearlings from 71:
,7s. to 91. 9s. Ninety pockets
of yearlings, Were weighed • in the course of yester-
day and this day..

prices.. Pigs; of Which there were a great numbet
at market the same days had a dull sale, at very
reducid prices ;• cattle were also somewhat cheaper...
