THE DUKE OF ORLEANS.

His Royal Highness the Duke of ORLEANS, eldest son re
t'e King of PRANCE, honoured Liverpool with S visit 01
Thursday last. The letter from Lord PAr-stERSTON to hi-
Worship the Mayor announced his Royal Highness's inten
tion ; and. as he was expected via Manchester, the rai:
road Directors had made suitable preparations to receiv
so distinguished a personage, who had undertak. n the
journey for the purpose of seeing their magnific nt under
taking. Their preparations, in this ance, however.
were unnecessary, for the Royal Duke came direct front
L••mien. He slept at Leicester on Wednesday night, an
arrived here, at the Adelphi Hotel, at 4 o'clock on Thurs
day afternoon. He was attended by a Nuite of six gentlemen
and a numerous r tinue. Irnmedii,tely on alighting freni
his carriage he walked out alone, and spent an hour and it
half in loungeing through the town. On his return h.
dined at the Root, Mr. RAnLEY- having prepared dinner
for h.s Royal Highness; and at about half.past 7 because,.
his arrival to be intimated to the Mayor, who, accompa.
nied by Mr. Bailiff ASPINALL, instantly waited on him.
They expr. seed their gratification at the honour of his
R y 1 Highness's visit, and he chatted with them fami-
liarly for some time in excellent Eneli•h. On their de
parture his Royal Highne-s visited the theatre incog. On
Friday morning, at 9 o'clock, his Worship the Mayor, en..
Mr. Bailiff ASPINALL were invited to a dejeune at the
Adelphi, immediately after which the Royal Duke and his
suite repaired to the tunnel in Wapping, where the Di-
rectors were waiting their arrival. They here got into a
train prepared expressly for them, accompanied by the Di-
rectors, pass d through the tunnel, and set off for Man
Chester, which, to their utter astonishment, they reached
in little more torn an hour from the time of starting. His
Royal Highness expressed, not only his sense of the polite
ne-s of the Director:, but his gratification at the mecha
nical wonder—the Railway. The shortness of the Prince's
stay was swing to the necessity he was under of being again
in London, having to a:tend the QUEEN'S Drawing-room
and dine with his MAJESTY on Tuesday. His object in
coming was to see the railway, for he had seen the docks,
&c., when be was here thr, e years ago. The Prince is a
handsome young man, With a full face, and stands about
five it-et eight inches high. His manners are easy, un-
affected, and gentlemanly.—Liverpool

His MAJESTY gives a grand dinner this
evening to the members of the Jockey Club. On similar
ore isions, during the last reign, it was the custom of the
KING to propose stakes for Newm,rket and Ascot, and
the party seldom broke up without sevral additional races
being made up for those meetings. His late MAJESTY
was also in thi- habit of appropriating Cumberland Longe
to the use of the club during Ascot Races.

The Duke of ORLEANS and suite left town
last night, at eight o'clock, fur Rochester, where his Royal
Highness was to sleep; and this intoning he is expected
to proceed to Deal, to visit the combined squadron in the
Downs, whence he departs for Dover, Ott his way to
Brussels. The Duke and suite attend-d the QUEEN'S
Drawing room r-sterday, and took leave of their MAJES-
TIES, on his return to the Continent. The Duke substi-
tuted a plain frock for his uniform at the Palace, and
th. nce proceeded to pay farewell visits to Prince TALLEY-
RAND and Earl GREY ; to the latter he expressed his
,hanks very warmly for the kindness with which he bad
been received in this country.

sian Embassy), arrived at A-htiurnham House the night
lirfore last. The Chevalier de YACOLEFF has also re-
cently arrived from the Russian capital.

We have accounts from the Mauritius, by
which we learn that Sir CHARLES COLVILLE hid sailed
for the Cape (where he arrived on th. 20th March). Mr.
ADRIAN DEHNEY had sailed with him, and proceeds to
England as a D puty, to lay the sentiments of the in-
habitants of the Mauritius be ore the British Government.
Sir W. NICOLAY was proceeding with vigour in conmuli

HASTINGS, MAY 27.—1 t being the natal
day of his R sal Highness Prince GEORGE of Cumber.
and, the morning was ushered in by the bells of she dif-
ferent churches ringing merrily. Before nine o'clock
there was a great display of flags ; the numerous
vesiels laying off this place were decorated on the occa-
sion. At eleven o'clock our little battery commenced
firing royal salutes, volleys. &c. Nearly the whole of the
day our esplanade, the favourite spot of his Royal High-
ness, was thronged with the gay spectators, whose faces
beamed joy and happiness at the signal mark and respect
paid to one whom all here honour and admire as their
patron. Our band gave seve,al proposed pieces of music
on the occasion, not forgetting his Royal Highness the
Duke of CUMBERLAND, and his amiable consort, the
Duchess, considering them as the admirers of this beau-
tiful, select watering place, which they have so long
honoured with their presence.

At a meeting of the General Assembly of the
Church of Scotland. lest week, it was unanimously re-
iolved, on the motion of the Lord Justice Clerk, that an
Address should be drawn up, " congratulating his MA-
scsrir on his Providential deliverance from the atrocious
and treasonable attempt on his life—in June last ye ,r
The del ly in preparing and forwarding this address, ori-
ginated, as the Lord Justice Clerk explained, not in dis-
loyality, but forgetfulness. It had not been thought of
Vore !

Amongst the thousand and one projects for
paying off the national debt, one, propounded some 12
months ado, called upon the ladies to appropriate a portion
of their pin money to this very laudable object ; the in_
genious concoetor of the scheme proving to demonstration
that the sums now devoted to articles of the toilet, and to
the purchase of superfluous silks and satins,would supply, in
a given period, ample funds for the payment of the whole
800,000,0001. Lord ALTHORY, we suppose, is fully
convinced of the practicability of the plan, as it is now
patronised Sty Government. and books have been opened
at the National Debt Office to receive donations, &c.
under the title of " The Contribution for the
Gradual Reduction of a part of the National Debt."
THE HOUSEHOLD TROOPS.—Ott the oc-
casion of her MAJESTY'S recent visit to Drury-lane, a
guard of honour, consisting of a small detachment of
Foot Guards, was appointed to mount guard at the door
of the theatre. On the following day a demand was
made at the treasury of the theatre for payment of these
men. The lessee, Captain POLHILL, was referred too,
and he very properly returned for answer that he had re-
peatedly commaoded a guard of honour, but that he
should have considered himself to derogate very materit l;y
I,orn the character of an officer had he sent in his bill for
d.ing the duty for which he w.is paid by is King. The
Guards were consequently minus the usual fee.

On Monday last, on the arrival of the Sir
Edward Bah ks steam vessel from Hamburg, a lady pas-
senger, who gave her name and address " Mrs. MILNER,
No. 177, Strand," was observed to ascend the cabin stairs
very awkwardly, and displayed, what she appeared very
desirous to conceal, a large pair of breeches beneath her
petticoats. Mr. JOSEPH TYLER, the acting tide sur-
veyor, and THOMAS WARD, tide waiter tin board, sus.
pecting contraband goods were concealed in the lady's in-
expressibles, followed her on deck, and requested her to
return to a private cabin, where Mrs. PROBERT, the
Custom-house searcher, divested the lady of her unfemi_
nine garment, which was flied with blond lace, value
4S/. P4s. The seizure was sent to the King's warehouse.

We had late accounts from Swan Itiver yes-
terday, by way of the Cape of Good Hope. The appear-
ance of the natives in the neighbourhood of the colony in
considerable numbers had caused some alarm, and attempts
were dai y making to establish a good understanding wr,ll
them, or, at least, to iti-cover their feelings with regard to
the cwonists. In this, however, little progress had been
made, as their language could not be understood, and their
shyness arid jealousy kept them at a distance from the
great body of the settlers. The colonists are exceedingly
jealous on the subject of taxation, and a protest had been
prepared against the attempt to create revenue for the sup-

port of the local establishments, and the construction of
woks, by the impo..ition of a duty of three shilling
r galon nn I. pirituowt liquors imported from ahroad.

HAIL STORM.—Wednesdly se'onight th,
vessels in the Channel near the Florma Light were over-
-aken by a hail storm of greater severity than «as eve.
,membered by the Oldest seamen. Hailstones. or rather
,;eces of lee, of nearly the size of an eeg, fell in all di.
eetions. The storm lasted a!?out aqu trter of an hour.—

MINING INTEREST.—We are informed
that it is the anxious wish of the Lords and adventurers it.

mr principal tnines that a meeting of the mming interest
should, forthwith, be convened by the Noble Ch,iirman of
the Committee appointed to hiy their else before Govern-
inent, in order to consider of cv.at steps it may r e expe-
dient to adopt for averting, whilst it is ye. possible, the
ruinous consequ-nees to our mines of the refusal of Minis-

THE BIRMINGHAM POLITICAL UNION
AND THE LONDON POLlCE.—During the meeting of the
Connell " on Tuesday evening one of the London morn
ing papers was brought nto the room, from which Mr.

. .
ITU NTZ read the verdict of the Jury on the death of the
otiliceman CULLY. The effect produced was electrical
The members of the Council and the Union present in-
stantly and simultaneously rose from their seats, and the
room rang with three loud and enthusiastic cheers. A
committee was subsequently appointed to draw up a peti
tion to Parliament, seating forth the unconstitutional
nature of an armed police force, and the danger to the
libertie., of the country, from allowing it to remain under
the control of the Government. —Birmingham Jo/Intel.
THE COLDBATH. FIELDS MEETING.-
Between one and two o'clock yesterday aftern ion Mr.
STAFFORD, the Chief Clerk at Bow-street office, aCCOM-
pani d Mr. STIRLING, the Coroner, and his clerk, to
the Old Bailey, and from thence to Bow-stre-t police
office, where they had a private interview, which lasted
for some time, with the Magistrates, relative, as we are
informed, to the late meeting in Coldhath-fields. Lost
evening the Coroner and other official gentlemen were
busily eneaged for several hours minutely inspecting the
depositions taken before the Coroner at the late inquest on
the body of CULLY, the policeman. We have made every
inquiry into the sui ject, but cannot positively ascertain
what steps the Government are adopting.
THE GRAND JURY OF SURREY.—Yester-
day the Grand Jury made another application to Mr.
HEDGER, the Chairman of the Surrey Sessions, for per-
mission to inspect the county gaol. Mr. HEDGER replied
that the Court could not depart from the system adopted
for the regulation of the county eaol. A Grand Juryman
isked how they could make their report as to the state of
the gaol, unless they visited it, and inspected every part of
it? The Chairman said they visited the gaol under the
same restrictions that other Grand Juries had hitherto
experienced.

A FAMILY MAN.—Having occasion to go
into ti e Prerogative Court a few days ago to obtain the
grant of an administration, I found the Court engaged in
the discussion of a case of intestacy, in the West Indies.
I recognised one ot the Judge's nephews in the person of
the Registrar, who sat opposite to him ; I perceived ano-
ther nephew at the side tit the Jud, e in the person of the
King's Proctor, who was turning over the evidence for
him ; and lastly, I discovered a thigd nephew in the per-
son of the King's Advoca•e, who was arguing the can•e,
assisted by the Jud,.e's son, who was the junior Couti-el
for the Crown ! This was a snug family compact; but
how great was my surp-ise at learning that this
same Judge is to he Judge of the Admiralty G•urt also.
What a ,remendous family job, and at his time of life, t• o,
neater eight!" from appearanc, and infirmity, than seventy.
Some Gil Bias should remind him of the Archbishop of
GRENADA ; hut who should remind the Governm-nt of

this tplpitisin ?--Front a Correspondent of the Morning

PICTURE OF THE REFORMED HOUSE
OF COMMONS.-It was now about ten o'clock ; and the
diviiiiion being expected to take place Ain't this time, tip.
House began to fill by Members who had not been present
during the early part of the evening, and who had heard
none of the debate, hut who were now some down afer
dinner to give their vote. As their only object was to be
present at he division, and to get this over as soon as
possible, that they might !:o home again, symptoms of im-
patience began to manifest th, mselves on every rising of a
new speaker. Mr. BROTHERTON was overwhelmed wirh
noise and clamour, while he attempted to show that our

taxation might be safely and hone tly reduced by dimiiiisla.
ing t e interest of the fundholder. Mr. Sergeant
SPANK'S met no better reception while he depicted the
distress in Finsbury. Sir WILLIAM INGILBY was cougl.ed
at and interrupted until he became j c-se, and then he war
partially listened to, as subjects for laught-r always com-
mand attention. Mt. Roraticx was groaned at, and but
for the interposition of Lord ALTIIORP would not have ob.
tained a hearing at all. Mr. TooxE, by the aid of ex-
cellent lungs, made his voice rise above the storm that
assail, d him on his rising. Mr. WARD, who is a sort of
actor as well as speaker, and who delivers himself with a
most oracula manner and theatrical air, which shows
the orator to be on excellent terms with himself, was
listened to, b cause the whole effect was amu-ing. Mr.
Hume was received with a volley, but, efter persevering,
it subsided. Lord ALTHOR?, from his official station,
and Mr. SPRING Rica, from the same consideration, were

each listened to attentively. Mr. HAWES was received
with impatience, though he was not three minufrs on his
legs ; and Mr. TENNYSON. who did not occupy more than
five minutes of time, spoke throughout amidst such con-
tinuous groaning, coughing, and interruptions, that it was
only at intervals that portions of his broken sentences
could be heard. There was no other reason for all this
than the lateness of the hour, and the desire of Members to
get over the division as soon as pot•sible ; for, with the ex-
_ _

ception of the Min'sters th. mselves, no one escaped a por-
tion of the vociferation.—Mr. Buckingham's Parliamen-
tary Review.
BARBAROUS MURDER.— A murder of a
most atrocious nature was committed on Friday, near
West Craigs Inn, on the road to GI ,scow. A boy about
eight years of age, had been sent by his mother in the
afternoon to bring home her cow, which was grasing a
short distance from her house. He did not return at the
time expected, when the mother becoming impatient,
went in search of him, and alter some time discovered the
body of her child io a state of nudity, with the clothes
beside it, lying in a water conduit at the side of the road,
at bbed in several parte with a sharp instrument. As
may he easily imagined, the horror of the spectacle quite
unnerved the unfortunate mother. An instant alarm was
immediately given, but no person was observed near the
spot. Suspicion has been attached to a man somewhat
weak in his intellect, who goes about the country begging,
and who had been in the neighbourhood of the place. He
has been apprehended, and lodged in Bathgate gaol. There
was found on him a large clasp knife, and also some pieces
of string and buttons, which the brother of the boy who
was murdered said belonged to his unfortunate brother.
There were also some marks on his trousers, which had
the appearance of being stains of blond. The matter is
undergoing the strictest investigation by the proper autho-
rities.—Edinburgh Evening Courant.
SHOCKING MURDER AND SUlClDE.—Witilin
the last ten days. the hamlet of New Bury, in the town-
ship of Farnwortb, has been the scene of a shocking
murder mid suicide. On 'Wednesday morning, the 15th
inst., EMANUEL ERABIN, an illegitimate child, son of
ALICE BRABIN, who resided with her mother and brother
at New Bury, died under strong suspicion of having been
poisoned. On Thursday, the 16th inst., a Jury was
called together to inquire into the death of the child ; but
no evidence was gone into, and the inquest was adjourned
to the Saturday following. On the Friday evening alter
the death of the infant, the mother was so preyed upon
by the stings of conscience, th, she made her escipe from
her friends, ran across s,:ine fields with incredible swift-
ness, cleared a high gate on her way, and, although
closely pursued, threw herself into a deep pit before she
could 1w ov rtaken. She was got out of the water with
some difficulty, and Mr. 111‘FmtbANE, surgeon, of Farn•
worth, was instantly called in. She was still alive when
he arrived, and he attempted to bleed her, and tried other
means to recover her, but without effect, as she died in a
short time. On Saturday tae inquest on the body of the
child was resumed, whey, alter a patient and thorough
investigation, a verdia of Wilful Murder was recorded
against ALICE EAA:AIN, the mother. Mr. M`FARLANE,
who opened the body of the child, declared that death was
occasioned by it, having had oil of vitriol administered to
it.—The same day an inquest was held on the body of the
mother, and a verdict of Self Murder returned.—The
budy of the child was intermit in the burial ground of
Astley Chapel, on Saturday ; and that of the mother, in
unconsecrated ground, on Sunday night. The child vi as
never affiliated, and the mother, who was only 21 years of
age, never declared who was its father.—Bolton Chronicle.
