.THERv appears very, little dciubt boLthat Bo ;1/41A.:2
PARTE will very speedily carry into execution his'
favourite- plan of assuming the title. of Emperor.
It is even stated :that a Foreign Ministeri.residing
in London, has received' intelligence that he has
been proclaimed in Paris. The Coronation is, how.
ever, to be deferred to August,- and the 'ceremony
is 'to be performed at Aix la Chapelle. the
Imperial Robes are already. embroidered, and all ,
the Regalia are in a state of preparation.-
This, after so many
.years of anarchy, after
so Mau), hundred of th6usands of lives have been
sacrificed for the purpose 'of establishing a free
Republican Government—after so many oaths of
eternal hatred to Kings and to Royalty, France is
to have a Government beyond all comparison more
arbitrary than that of which she got rid in 1789.
The Free 'Republic ends in an 'Absolute Monarchy,
and she Free Itt publicans, after swearing hatred to
Kings, are compelled to eleCt a Foreig:ver to fill.
the Throne of France. What effed this extral
ordinary measure will have upon the Powers
of Europe, it is impossible. at present to foresee it
we are to judge from the past,, we should expel
only tame acquiescence and submission ; but we
have reason to believe that the great Continental
Powers are becoming every day more and more con-
vinced of the necessity of placing some limits to the
insolence and the ambition of France ; and now that
they see the affairs of Great Britain directed by a
wise and vigorous Administration, we cannot but
entertain the hope that they may be induced to
make some exertions for their own safety, and for
the independence of Europe.

Yesterday morning, about twelve o'clock, His
MAJESTY, accompanied by the Duke of CAM-
BRI DC E, HER MAJESTY, and the five PRINCESSES,
attended by the Countesses of CARDIGAN and
AYLESBURY, took an airing in three carriages and
four, with their usual escort,: and honoured- the
Countess of MANFIEL'D With a visit at Richmond.
Park, and returned to the Queen's House soon after
two o'clock.—About three o'clock His MAJESTY
gave audiences ,to the Duke of Motcrkos E, the Earls
W“k/Cli ILSE. WILTON, and UXBRIDGE, Sir H.
B. NEALE, and Mr. WM. DUNDAS.

The FR INC tz of WALES-yesterday gave a grand
dinner at, carlton.House. Among the splendid
and numerous guests who were invited on this oc.
casion, were `m,any distinguished Political Cha-
raders. Hence it has been inferred, that His Royal
Highness intended that the dinner should be consi-
dered AS a kited of po:itkal ilte, to manifest his own
principles and feelings. We do not, however, view
the matter in this light, but conceive that the
Heir App,trent natorally thinks.it becoming his sta-
tion to spew his resped for the rank, property, and
talents that adorn the Country, aria support that
Government it,h which his own interest and berlotir
are essentially blended. The Pubiic Prints differ
in their accounts of the persons who were present
on this occasion ; hut the following is peihaps the
most corred list of the more distinguished visitors
Duke of Clarence; Earl Carnarvon,
Duke of Bedford,. Lord D tincias,
Duke of Devonshire, - Lord Minn),
Marquis of Buckingham.; Lord Grenville, •
Earl of Derby, • Lord Morveth,
Larl of Carii,le, Mr. Fox, .
Earl Fitz William, Mr. Grey,
Earl Egremont, Mr. Windham,
Earl Darnley, Mr. Sheridan,
Earl Lauderdale, Mr. T.

The Company assembled in the brand Saloon,
and the dinner took place at seven o'clock. The
only Tdast given, on the removal of thecloth, was
" THE KING," a circumstance that marks the
tnectii;g as having_originated in the pure spirit of
filial and fervid loyalty. .
